Chairman’s Letter
Dear PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust Shareholder:
It is our pleasure to present to you the semiannual report for the PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust covering the six-month period ended June 30, 2006.
Highlights of the global bond markets during the six-month period included:
| n | | Most fixed-income sectors lost ground during the first half of 2006, as concern about accelerating inflation and central bank tightening pushed interest rates higher worldwide. The benchmark Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index (which includes Treasury, Investment-Grade Corporate, and Residential Mortgage-Backed Securities) returned -0.72% for the first six months of the year. On June 30, the benchmark ten-year Treasury yielded 5.14%, 0.75% higher than at the start of the year. The U.S. yield curve remained flat as shorter-maturity yields rose by a comparable amount. |
| n | | The Federal Reserve tightened four times during the reporting period, bringing the Federal Funds Rate to 5.25%. The increase near the end of the period was the Federal Reserve’s 17th consecutive rate hike since the start of its tightening cycle in 2004. The Federal Reserve was not alone, as central banks in Europe, India, and China tightened credit in unison for the first time since 2000. The Bank of Japan, whose zero-interest-rate policy has flooded global markets with liquidity, looked set to reverse this policy in the coming months. |
In these pages please find a more complete Portfolio review as it relates to financial-market activities, as well as details about total-return investment performance for the six-month reporting period. Thank you for the trust you have placed in us. We will continue to work diligently to meet your investment needs.
Sincerely,

Brent R. Harris
Chairman, PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust

Important Information About the Portfolio
PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust (the “Trust”) is an open-end management investment company currently consisting of nineteen separate investment portfolios, including the All Asset Portfolio (the “Portfolio”). The Portfolio is only available as a funding vehicle under variable life insurance policies or variable annuity contracts issued by insurance companies (“Variable Contracts”). Individuals may not purchase shares of the Portfolio directly. Shares of the Portfolio also may be sold to qualified pension and retirement plans outside of the separate account context.
The Portfolio is a “fund of funds,” which is a term used to describe mutual funds that pursue their investment objective by investing in other mutual funds instead of investing directly in stocks or bonds of other issuers. Under normal circumstances, the Portfolio invests substantially all of its assets in Institutional Class shares of PIMCO Funds, an affiliated open-end investment company, except the All Asset and All Asset All Authority Funds (“Underlying Funds”).
Among the principal risks of investing in the Portfolio are allocation risk, Underlying Fund risk and issuer non-diversification risk. The Portfolio also is indirectly subject to the risks of the Underlying Funds, which may include, but are not limited to, the following: interest rate risk, credit risk, high yield risk, market risk, issuer risk, variable dividends risk, liquidity risk, derivatives risk, commodity risk, equity risk, mortgage risk, non-U.S. investment risk, real estate risk, emerging markets risk, currency risk, issuer non-diversification risk, leveraging risk, small company risk, management risk, California state specific risk, New York state specific risk, tax risk and index risk. A complete description of these risks is contained in the Portfolio’s prospectus. An Underlying Fund may use derivative instruments for hedging purposes or as part of an investment strategy. Use of these instruments may involve certain costs and risks such as liquidity risk, interest rate risk, market risk, credit risk, management risk and the risk that the Underlying Fund could not close out a position when it would be most advantageous to do so. An Underlying Fund investing in derivatives could lose more than the principal amount invested in these instruments. Investing in non-U.S. securities may entail risk due to non-U.S. economic and political developments; this risk may be increased when investing in emerging markets.
The cost of investing in the Portfolio will generally be higher than the cost of investing in a mutual fund that invests directly in individual stocks and bonds. By investing in the Portfolio, an investor will indirectly bear fees and expenses charged by the Underlying Funds in addition to the Portfolio’s direct fees and expenses.
On the performance summary page in this Semiannual Report, the Total Return Investment Performance table measures performance assuming that all dividend and capital gain distributions were reinvested.
An investment in the Portfolio is not a deposit of a bank and is not guaranteed or insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. It is possible to lose money on investments in the Portfolio.
PIMCO has adopted written proxy voting policies and procedures (“Proxy Policy”) as required by Rule 206(4)-6 under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940. The Proxy Policy has been adopted by the Trust as the policies and procedures that PIMCO will use when voting proxies on behalf of the Portfolio. Copies of the written Proxy Policy and the factors that PIMCO may consider in determining how to vote proxies for the Portfolio, and information about how the Portfolio voted proxies relating to portfolio securities held during the most recent twelve-month period ended June 30, are available without charge, upon request, by calling the Trust at 1-866-746-2606 and on the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) website at http://www.sec.gov.
The Portfolio files its complete schedule of portfolio holdings with the SEC for the first and third quarters of each fiscal year on Form N-Q. A copy of the Trust’s Form N-Q is available on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov and may be reviewed and copied at the SEC’s Public Reference Room in Washington D.C. Information on the operation of the Public Reference Room may be obtained by calling 1-800-SEC-0330.
PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust is distributed by Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC, 2187 Atlantic Street, Stamford, CT 06902.

The following disclosure provides important information regarding the Portfolio’s Expense Example (“Example” or “Expense Example”), which appears in this Semiannual Report. Please refer to this information when reviewing the Expense Example for the Portfolio.
Example
As a shareholder of the Portfolio, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs and (2) ongoing costs, including advisory and administrative fees; distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees (Administrative Class, Advisor Class and Class M only); and other Portfolio expenses. The Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Portfolio and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Expense Example does not reflect any fees or other expenses imposed by the Variable Contracts. If it did, the expenses reflected in the Expense Examples would be higher. The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period indicated, which is from January 1, 2006 to June 30, 2006.
Actual Expenses
The information in the table under the heading “Actual Performance” provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in these columns, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.60), then multiply the result by the number in the appropriate column for your share class, in the row titled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The information in the table under the heading “Hypothetical Performance (5% return before expenses)” provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Portfolio’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Portfolio’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Portfolio and other portfolios. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other portfolios.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs. Therefore, the information under the heading “Hypothetical Performance (5% return before expenses)” is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different portfolios. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.
The expense ratio may vary period to period because of various factors, such as an increase in expenses not covered by the advisory and administrative fees (such as expenses of the trustees and their counsel or litigation expense).
Portfolio Benchmarks
Lehman Brothers U.S. TIPS: 1-10 Year is an unmanaged index market comprised of U.S. Treasury Inflation Linked securities having a maturity of at least 1 year and less than 10 years. It is not possible to invest directly in such an unmanaged index.
The CPI + 500 Basis Points benchmark is created by adding 5% to the annual percentage change in the Consumer Price Index (“CPI”). This index reflects non-seasonally adjusted returns. The CPI is an unmanaged index representing the rate of inflation of the U.S. consumer prices as determined by the US Department of Labor Statistics. There can be no guarantee that the CPI or other indexes will reflect the exact level of inflation at any given time.

Past performance is no guarantee of future results. The performance quoted represents past performance. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so the Portfolio shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. The Portfolio’s performance does not reflect the deduction of additional charges and expenses imposed in connection with investing in Variable Contracts, which will reduce returns. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. Performance data current to the most recent month-end is available by calling (800) 927-4648.

Expenses Paid During Period† | | | | $ | 2.96 | | | | $ | 3.01 |
† Expenses are equal to the Portfolio’s Administrative Class annualized expense ratio of 0.60%, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 181/365 (to reflect the one-half year period). The expense ratio excludes the expenses of the Underlying Funds, which based upon the allocation of the Portfolio’s assets among the Underlying Funds are indirectly borne by the shareholders of the Portfolio. The Underlying Fund Expenses for the Portfolio are estimated at 0.63%. Overall fees and expenses of investing in the Portfolio will be higher because the example does not reflect Variable Contract fees and expenses.
Please refer to page 3 herein for a description of the Portfolio’s benchmark and an explanation of the information presented in the above Expense Example.
Portfolio Insights
» | | The PIMCO All Asset Portfolio seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing under normal circumstances substantially all of its assets in Institutional Class Shares of the Underlying Funds (i.e., any of the PIMCO Funds, except the All Asset and All Asset All Authority Funds). |
» | | Significant exposure to the Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities (“TIPS”) asset class detracted significantly from tactical asset allocation alpha due to the asset class, particularly longer dated TIPS, posting negative returns. |
» | | Less than optimal exposure to commodities detracted from performance, as the Dow Jones AIG Commodity Index returned 3.58% over the period. |
» | | Less than optimal exposure to Real Estate Investment Trusts (“REITs”) detracted from performance, as the Dow Jones Wilshire REIT Index gained 14.40% for the period. |
» | | Significant exposure to lower duration instruments was positive for performance, as lower duration assets tend to outperform assets with longer duration in a rising interest rate environment. Exposure to the Floating Rate Income Fund provided positive returns. |
» | | Significant exposure to the Developing Local Markets Fund and emerging market currencies added to performance with the fund returning 4.34%. |
» | | Exposure to the High Yield Fund was positive due to coupon selection providing solid returns for the period. |

Notes to Financial Statements
1. ORGANIZATION
The All Asset Portfolio (the “Portfolio”) is a series of the PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust (the “Trust”). The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “Act”), as amended, as an open-end investment management company organized as a Delaware business trust on October 3, 1997. The Portfolio offers four classes of shares: Institutional, Administrative, Advisor, and Class M. Information presented in these financial statements pertains to the Administrative Class of the Portfolio. Certain detailed financial information for the Institutional Class, Advisor Class and Class M are provided separately and are available upon request. The Trust is designed to be used as an investment vehicle by Separate Accounts of insurance companies that fund variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies and by qualified pension and retirement plans.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Portfolio in the preparation of its financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Security Valuation Investments in Funds within the PIMCO Funds are valued at their net asset value as reported by the Underlying Funds.
Securities Transactions and Investment Income. Securities transactions are recorded as of the trade date. Securities purchased or sold on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis may be settled a month or more after the trade date. Realized gains and losses from securities sold are recorded on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Portfolio is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, adjusted for the accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis. Paydown gains and losses on mortgage-related or asset-backed securities are recorded as components of interest income in the Statement of Operations.
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends from net investment income, if any, are declared and distributed to shareholders quarterly. Net realized capital gains earned by the Portfolio, if any, will be distributed no less frequently than once each year. Most shareholders choose to reinvest their dividends and capital gain distribution in additional shares of the Portfolio.
Income dividends and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP. Differences between tax regulations and GAAP may change the fiscal year when income and capital items are recognized for tax and GAAP purposes. Examples of events that give rise to timing differences include wash sales, straddles, net operating losses and capital loss carryforwards. Further, the character of investment income and capital gains may be different for certain transactions under the two methods of accounting. Examples of characterization differences include the treatment of mortgage paydowns, swaps, foreign currency transactions and contingent debt instruments. As a result, income dividends and capital gain distributions declared during a fiscal period may differ significantly from the net investment income and realized capital gain reported in the Portfolio’s annual financial statements presented under GAAP.
Distributions classified as a tax basis return of capital, if any, are reflected in the accompanying Statements of Changes in Net Assets and have been reclassified to paid in capital. In addition, other amounts have been reclassified between undistributed net investment income, accumulated undistributed net realized gains or losses and/or paid in capital to more appropriately conform financial accounting to tax characterizations of dividend distributions.
Multiclass Operations. Each class offered by the Portfolio has equal rights as to assets and voting privileges (except that shareholders of a class have exclusive voting rights regarding any matter relating solely to that class of shares). Income and non-class specific expenses of the Portfolio are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative value of settled shares. Realized and unrealized capital gains and losses of the Portfolio are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative net assets of each class. Class specific expenses, where applicable, currently include administrative, distribution and servicing fees.
Federal Income Taxes. The All Asset Portfolio (“the Portfolio”) intends to qualify as a regulated investment company and distribute all of its taxable income and net realized gains, if applicable, to shareholders. Accordingly, no provision for Federal income taxes has been made.
To the extent the All Asset Portfolio invest in the CommodityRealReturn Strategy Portfolio® (the “CRRS Portfolio”), an Underlying Fund, this Portfolio may be subject to the risks associated with commodity-linked derivative instruments.
One of the requirements for favorable tax treatment as a regulated investment company under the Code is that the CRRS Portfolio derive at least 90 percent of its gross income from certain qualifying sources of income. On December 16, 2005, the IRS issued Revenue Ruling 2006-01 which held that income from commodity index-linked swaps was not qualifying income. At the time Revenue Ruling 2006-01 was issued, the CRRS Portfolio invested primarily in commodity index-linked swaps to gain exposure to the commodity markets. Revenue Ruling 2006-01 provided an effective date of June 30, 2006, after which time the CRRS Portfolio’s ability to utilize commodity index-linked swaps as part of its investment strategy will be limited to a maximum of 10 percent of its gross income.
On June 2, 2006, the IRS issued Revenue Ruling 2006-31 which extends the effective date for Revenue Ruling 2006-01 from June 30, 2006 until September 30, 2006. Revenue Ruling 2006-31 also clarifies the holding of Revenue Ruling 2006-01 by providing that income from alternative instruments (such as certain commodity index-linked notes) that create commodity exposure may be considered qualifying income under the Code. In addition, the IRS has also issued private letter rulings to at least two other funds in which the IRS specifically concluded that income from certain commodity index-linked notes is qualifying income. The CRRS Portfolio has also obtained an opinion of counsel with respect to the treatment of income from commodity index-linked notes as qualifying income under the Code. Such an opinion is not binding upon the IRS.
Based on Revenue Ruling 2006-31, IRS guidance and advice of counsel, the CRRS Portfolio will seek to gain exposure to the commodity markets primarily through investments in commodity indexlinked notes. The use of commodity index-linked notes involves specific risks. The CRRS Portfolio will continue to seek ways to make use of other commodity-linked derivative instruments, including swap agreements, commodity options, futures and options on futures, and alternative structures within the Portfolio to gain exposure to commodity markets. Please refer to the prospectus for the Separate Account and Variable Contract for information regarding federal income tax treatment of distributions to the Separate Account.
Guarantees and Indemnifications. Under the Trust’s organizational documents, each Trustee, officer, employee or other agent of the Trust (including the Trust’s investment manager) is indemnified against certain liabilities that may arise out of performance of their duties to the Portfolio. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Portfolio enters into contracts that contain a variety of
| | | | |
10 | | PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust | | |
| | |
| |
| | June 30, 2006 (Unaudited) |
indemnification clauses. The Portfolio’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Portfolio that have not yet occurred. However, the Portfolio has not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts, and believes the risk of loss to be remote.
Underlying Funds. The Portfolio may invest in any or all of the Underlying Funds, but will not normally invest in every Underlying Fund at any particular time. The Underlying Funds are the Institutional Class shares of the PIMCO Funds, an affiliated open-end investment company, except All Asset and All Asset All Authority Funds. Though it is anticipated that the All Asset Portfolio will not currently invest in the European StocksPLUS® Total Return Strategy, Far East (ex-Japan) StocksPLUS® Total Return Strategy, Japanese StocksPLUS® TR Strategy, StocksPLUS® Municipal-Backed and StocksPLUS® TR Short Strategy Funds, the Portfolio may invest in these Funds in the future, without shareholder approval, at the discretion of the Portfolio’s asset allocation sub-adviser.
New Accounting Policies. In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes—an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (the “Interpretation”). The Interpretation is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. Management is currently evaluating the application of the Interpretation to the Portfolio and will provide additional information in relation to the Interpretation in the Portfolio’s annual financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2006.
3. FEES, EXPENSES, AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Investment Advisory Fee. PIMCO is a majority-owned subsidiary of Allianz Global Investors of America L.P. (“AGI”), and serves as investment adviser (the “Adviser”) to the Trust, pursuant to an investment advisory contract. The Adviser receives a monthly fee at an annual rate based on average daily net assets of the Portfolio. The Advisory Fee is charged at an annual rate of 0.20%.
Administration Fee. PIMCO serves as administrator (the “Administrator”), and provides administrative services to the Trust for which it receives a monthly administrative fee based on average daily net assets of the Portfolio. As the Administrator, PIMCO bears the costs of various third-party services, including audit, custodial, portfolio accounting, legal, transfer agency and printing costs. The Administration Fee is charged at the annual rate of 0.25%.
Distribution and Servicing Fees. Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC (“AGID”) is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of AGI and serves as the distributor of the Trust’s shares. The Trust is permitted to reimburse AGID on a quarterly basis, out of the Administrative Class assets of the Portfolio in the amount of 0.15% on an annual basis of the average daily net assets of that class, for payments made to financial intermediaries that provide services in connection with the distribution of shares or administration of plans or programs that use Portfolio shares as their funding medium. The effective rate paid to AGID was 0.15% during the current fiscal year.
Expenses. The Trust is responsible for the following expenses: (i) salaries and other compensation of any of the Trust’s executive officers and employees who are not officers, directors, stockholders or employees of PIMCO or its subsidiaries or affiliates; (ii) taxes and governmental fees; (iii) brokerage fees and commissions and other portfolio transaction expenses; (iv) the costs of borrowing money, including interest expenses and bank overdraft charges; (v) fees and expenses of the Trustees who are not “interested persons” of PIMCO or the Trust, and any counsel retained exclusively for their benefit; (vi) extraordinary expenses, including costs of litigation and indemnification expenses; (vii) organization expenses and (viii) any expenses allocated or allocable to a specific class of shares, which include service fees payable with respect to the Administrative Class shares and may include certain other expenses as permitted by the Trust’s Multiple Class Plan adopted pursuant to Rule 18f-3 under the Act and subject to review and approval by the Trustees. The ratio of expenses to average net assets per share class, as disclosed in the Financial Highlights, may differ from the annual portfolio operating expenses per share class as disclosed in the Prospectus for the reasons set forth above.
PIMCO has agreed to waive a portion of its administrative fees to the extent that the payment of the Portfolio’s pro rata share of organization expenses and Trustee fees cause the actual expense ratio to rise above the rates disclosed in the then-current prospectus plus 0.49 basis points as set forth below (calculated as a percentage of the Portfolio’s average daily net assets attributable to each class):
| | | |
Administrative Class | | 0.60 | % |
PIMCO may be reimbursed for these waived amounts in future periods, not to exceed thirty-six months. Expenses that have been waived and may still be reimbursed by the Administrator, to the extent the Portfolio’s annualized total portfolio operating expenses plus the amount so reimbursed does not exceed the operating expense limitation, are as follows (amounts in thousands):
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | | | | Year of Waiver |
| | | | | 12/31/2003 | | | | | 12/31/2004 | | | | | 12/31/2005 | | | | | 06/30/2006 |
Amount Available for Reimbursement | | | | $ | 12 | | | | $ | 0 | | | | $ | 0 | | | | $ | 0 |
For the current period ended June 30, 2006, each unaffiliated Trustee received an annual retainer of $15,000, plus $2,000 for each Board of Trustees quarterly meeting attended, $500 for each Board of Trustees committee meeting attended and $500 for each special board meeting attended, plus reimbursement of related expenses. In addition, each Committee Chair received an additional annual retainer of $500 and each Audit Committee Chair received an additional annual retainer of $1,500. These expenses are allocated on a pro-rata basis to each Portfolio of the Trust according to its respective net assets. The Trust pays no compensation directly to any Trustee or any other officer who is affiliated with the Administrator, all of whom receive remuneration for their services to the Trust from the Administrator or its affiliates.
4. PURCHASES AND SALES OF SECURITIES
The length of time the Portfolio has held a particular security is not generally a consideration in investment decisions. A change in the securities held by the Portfolio is known as “portfolio turnover”. The Portfolio may engage in frequent and active trading of portfolio securities to achieve its investment objective, particularly during periods of volatile market movements. High portfolio turnover (e.g., over 100%) involves correspondingly greater expenses to the Portfolio, including brokerage commissions or dealer mark-ups and other transaction costs on the sale of securities and reinvestments in other securities. Such sales may also result in realization of taxable capital gains, including short-term capital gains (which are generally taxed at ordinary income tax rates). The trading costs and tax effects associated with portfolio turnover may adversely affect the Portfolio’s performance.
Purchases and sales of securities (excluding short-term investments) for the period ended June 30, 2006 were as follows (amounts in thousands):

7. FEDERAL INCOME TAX MATTERS
As of June 30, 2006, the aggregate cost of investments was the same for federal income tax and financial statement purposes. The net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of investment securities for federal income tax purposes is as follows (amounts in thousands):
| | | | |
Aggregate Gross Unrealized Appreciation | | Aggregate Gross Unrealized (Depreciation) | | Net Unrealized (Depreciation) |
$ 1,463 | | $ (10,857) | | $ (9,394) |
8. REGULATORY AND LITIGATION MATTERS
On June 1, 2004, the Attorney General of the State of New Jersey announced that it had dismissed PIMCO from a complaint filed by the New Jersey Attorney General on February 17, 2004, and that it had entered into a settlement agreement (the “New Jersey Settlement”) with Allianz Global Investors of America L.P. (“AGI”) (formerly known as Allianz Dresdner Asset Management of America L.P.), PEA Capital LLC (an entity affiliated with PIMCO through common ownership) (“PEA”) and Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC (“AGID”), in connection with the same matter. In the New Jersey Settlement, AGI, PEA and AGID neither admitted nor denied the allegations or conclusions of law, but did agree to pay New Jersey a civil fine of $15 million and $3 million for investigative costs and further potential enforcement initiatives against unrelated parties. They also undertook to implement certain governance changes. The complaint relating to the New Jersey Settlement alleged, among other things, that AGI, PEA and AGID had failed to disclose that they improperly allowed certain hedge funds to engage in “market timing” in certain funds. The complaint sought injunctive relief, civil monetary penalties, restitution and disgorgement of profits.
Since February 2004, PIMCO, AGI, PEA, AGID, and certain of their affiliates, including the PIMCO Funds, the Allianz Funds (formerly known as PIMCO Funds: Multi-Manager Series), and the Trustees and employees of the PIMCO Funds, have been named as defendants in fifteen lawsuits filed in various jurisdictions. Eleven of those lawsuits concern “market timing,” and they have been transferred to and consolidated for pre-trial proceedings in a multi-district litigation proceeding in the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland; the other four lawsuits concern “revenue sharing” and have been consolidated into a single action in the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut. The lawsuits have been commenced as putative class actions on behalf of investors who purchased, held or redeemed shares of the various series of the PIMCO Funds and the Allianz Funds during specified periods, or as derivative actions on behalf of the PIMCO Funds and Allianz Funds.
The market timing actions in the District of Maryland generally allege that certain hedge funds were allowed to engage in “market timing” in certain of the Allianz Funds and the PIMCO Funds and this alleged activity was not disclosed. Pursuant to tolling agreements entered into with the derivative and class action plaintiffs, PIMCO, the Trustees, and certain employees of PIMCO who were previously named as defendants have all been dropped as defendants in the market timing actions; the plaintiffs continue to assert claims on behalf of the shareholders of the PIMCO Funds or on behalf of the PIMCO Funds themselves against other defendants. By order dated November 3, 2005, the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland granted the PIMCO Funds’ motion to dismiss claims asserted against it in a consolidated amended complaint where the PIMCO Funds were named, in the complaint, as a nominal defendant. The revenue sharing action in the District of Connecticut generally alleges that fund assets were inappropriately used to pay brokers to promote the Allianz Funds and PIMCO Funds, including directing fund brokerage transactions to such brokers, and that such alleged arrangements were not fully disclosed to shareholders. On August 11, 2005 the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut conducted a hearing on defendants’ motion to dismiss the consolidated amended complaint in the revenue sharing action but has not yet ruled on the motion to dismiss. The market timing and revenue sharing lawsuits seek, among other things, unspecified compensatory damages plus interest and, in some cases, punitive damages, the rescission of investment advisory contracts, the return of fees paid under those contracts and restitution.
Under Section 9(a) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“1940 Act”), if the New Jersey Settlement or any of the lawsuits described above were to result in a court injunction against AGI, PEA, AGID and/or their affiliates, PIMCO could, in the absence of exemptive relief granted by the SEC, be barred from serving as an investment adviser, and AGID could be barred from serving as principal underwriter, to any registered investment company, including the Portfolios of the Trust. In connection with an inquiry from the SEC concerning the status of the New Jersey Settlement under Section 9(a), PEA, AGID, AGI and certain of their affiliates (including PIMCO) (together, the “Applicants”) have sought exemptive relief from the SEC under Section 9(c) of the 1940 Act. The SEC has granted the Applicants a temporary exemption from the provisions of Section 9(a) with respect to the New Jersey Settlement until the earlier of (i) September 13, 2006 and (ii) the date on which the SEC takes final action on their application for a permanent order. There is no assurance that the SEC will issue a permanent order.
Two nearly identical class action civil complaints have been filed in August 2005, in the Northern District of Illinois Eastern Division alleging that the plaintiffs each purchased and sold a 10-year Treasury note futures contract and suffered damages from an alleged shortage when PIMCO held both physical and futures positions in 10-year Treasury notes for its client accounts. The two actions have been consolidated into one action, and the two separate complaints have been replaced by a consolidated complaint. PIMCO is a named defendant, and the PIMCO Funds have been added as a defendant, to the consolidated action. PIMCO strongly believes the complaint (and any consolidated complaint filed hereafter) is without merit and intends to vigorously defend itself.
Certain Portfolios of the Trust were recently served in an adversary proceeding brought by the Official Committee of Asbestos Claimants of G-I Holdings, Inc. in G-I Holdings, Inc.’s bankruptcy in the District of New Jersey. PIMCO was previously named in this lawsuit and remains a defendant. The plaintiff seeks to recover for the bankruptcy estate assets that were transferred by the predecessor entity of G-I Holdings, Inc. to a wholly-owned subsidiary in 1994. The subsidiary has since issued notes, of which certain Portfolios of the Trust are alleged to be holders. The complaint alleges that in 2000, more than two hundred noteholders —including certain Portfolios of the Trust—were granted a second priority lien on the assets of the subsidiary in exchange for their consent to a refinancing transaction and the granting of a first priority lien to the lending banks. The plaintiff is seeking invalidation of the lien in favor of the noteholders and/or the value of the lien.
It is possible that these matters and/or other developments resulting from these matters could result in increased fund redemptions or other adverse consequences to the Portfolios. However, PIMCO and AGID believe that these matters are not likely to have a material adverse effect on the Portfolios or on PIMCO’s or AGID’s ability to perform their respective investment advisory or distribution services relating to the Portfolios.

Chairman’s Letter
Dear PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust Shareholder:
It is our pleasure to present to you the semiannual report for the PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust covering the six-month period ended June 30, 2006.
Highlights of the global bond markets during the six-month period included:
| n | | Most fixed-income sectors lost ground during the first half of 2006, as concern about accelerating inflation and central bank tightening pushed interest rates higher worldwide. The benchmark Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index (which includes Treasury, Investment-Grade Corporate, and Residential Mortgage-Backed Securities) returned -0.72% for the first six months of the year. On June 30, the benchmark ten-year Treasury yielded 5.14%, 0.75% higher than at the start of the year. The U.S. yield curve remained flat as shorter-maturity yields rose by a comparable amount. |
| n | | The Federal Reserve tightened four times during the reporting period, bringing the Federal Funds Rate to 5.25%. The increase near the end of the period was the Federal Reserve’s 17th consecutive rate hike since the start of its tightening cycle in 2004. The Federal Reserve was not alone, as central banks in Europe, India, and China tightened credit in unison for the first time since 2000. The Bank of Japan, whose zero-interest-rate policy has flooded global markets with liquidity, looked set to reverse this policy in the coming months. |
In these pages please find a more complete Portfolio review as it relates to financial-market activities, as well as details about total-return investment performance for the six-month reporting period. Thank you for the trust you have placed in us. We will continue to work diligently to meet your investment needs.
Sincerely,

Brent R. Harris
Chairman, PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust

Important Information About the Portfolio
PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust (the “Trust”) is an open-end management investment company currently consisting of nineteen separate investment portfolios, including the All Asset Portfolio (the “Portfolio”). The Portfolio is only available as a funding vehicle under variable life insurance policies or variable annuity contracts issued by insurance companies (“Variable Contracts”). Individuals may not purchase shares of the Portfolio directly. Shares of the Portfolio also may be sold to qualified pension and retirement plans outside of the separate account context.
The Portfolio is a “fund of funds,” which is a term used to describe mutual funds that pursue their investment objective by investing in other mutual funds instead of investing directly in stocks or bonds of other issuers. Under normal circumstances, the Portfolio invests substantially all of its assets in Institutional Class shares of PIMCO Funds, an affiliated open-end investment company, except the All Asset and All Asset All Authority Funds (“Underlying Funds”).
Among the principal risks of investing in the Portfolio are allocation risk, Underlying Fund risk and issuer non-diversification risk. The Portfolio also is indirectly subject to the risks of the Underlying Funds, which may include, but are not limited to, the following: interest rate risk, credit risk, high yield risk, market risk, issuer risk, variable dividends risk, liquidity risk, derivatives risk, commodity risk, equity risk, mortgage risk, non-U.S. investment risk, real estate risk, emerging markets risk, currency risk, issuer non-diversification risk, leveraging risk, small company risk, management risk, California state specific risk, New York state specific risk, tax risk and index risk. A complete description of these risks is contained in the Portfolio’s prospectus. An Underlying Fund may use derivative instruments for hedging purposes or as part of an investment strategy. Use of these instruments may involve certain costs and risks such as liquidity risk, interest rate risk, market risk, credit risk, management risk and the risk that the Underlying Fund could not close out a position when it would be most advantageous to do so. An Underlying Fund investing in derivatives could lose more than the principal amount invested in these instruments. Investing in non-U.S. securities may entail risk due to non-U.S. economic and political developments; this risk may be increased when investing in emerging markets.
The cost of investing in the Portfolio will generally be higher than the cost of investing in a mutual fund that invests directly in individual stocks and bonds. By investing in the Portfolio, an investor will indirectly bear fees and expenses charged by the Underlying Funds in addition to the Portfolio’s direct fees and expenses.
On the performance summary page in this Semiannual Report, the Total Return Investment Performance table measures performance assuming that all dividend and capital gain distributions were reinvested.
An investment in the Portfolio is not a deposit of a bank and is not guaranteed or insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. It is possible to lose money on investments in the Portfolio.
PIMCO has adopted written proxy voting policies and procedures (“Proxy Policy”) as required by Rule 206(4)-6 under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940. The Proxy Policy has been adopted by the Trust as the policies and procedures that PIMCO will use when voting proxies on behalf of the Portfolio. Copies of the written Proxy Policy and the factors that PIMCO may consider in determining how to vote proxies for the Portfolio, and information about how the Portfolio voted proxies relating to portfolio securities held during the most recent twelve-month period ended June 30, are available without charge, upon request, by calling the Trust at 1-866-746-2606 and on the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) website at http://www.sec.gov.
The Portfolio files its complete schedule of portfolio holdings with the SEC for the first and third quarters of each fiscal year on Form N-Q. A copy of the Trust’s Form N-Q is available on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov and may be reviewed and copied at the SEC’s Public Reference Room in Washington D.C. Information on the operation of the Public Reference Room may be obtained by calling 1-800-SEC-0330.
PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust is distributed by Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC, 2187 Atlantic Street, Stamford, CT 06902.

The following disclosure provides important information regarding the Portfolio’s Expense Example (“Example” or “Expense Example”), which appears in this Semiannual Report. Please refer to this information when reviewing the Expense Example for the Portfolio.
Example
As a shareholder of the Portfolio, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs and (2) ongoing costs, including advisory and administrative fees; distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees (Administrative Class, Advisor Class and Class M only); and other Portfolio expenses. The Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Portfolio and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Expense Example does not reflect any fees or other expenses imposed by the Variable Contracts. If it did, the expenses reflected in the Expense Examples would be higher. The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period indicated, which is from January 1, 2006 to June 30, 2006.
Actual Expenses
The information in the table under the heading “Actual Performance” provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in these columns, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.60), then multiply the result by the number in the appropriate column for your share class, in the row titled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The information in the table under the heading “Hypothetical Performance (5% return before expenses)” provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Portfolio’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Portfolio’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Portfolio and other portfolios. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other portfolios.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs. Therefore, the information under the heading “Hypothetical Performance (5% return before expenses)” is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different portfolios. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.
The expense ratio may vary period to period because of various factors, such as an increase in expenses not covered by the advisory and administrative fees (such as expenses of the trustees and their counsel or litigation expense).
Portfolio Benchmarks
Lehman Brothers U.S. TIPS: 1-10 Year is an unmanaged index market comprised of U.S. Treasury Inflation Linked securities having a maturity of at least 1 year and less than 10 years. It is not possible to invest directly in such an unmanaged index.
The CPI + 500 Basis Points benchmark is created by adding 5% to the annual percentage change in the Consumer Price Index (“CPI”). This index reflects non-seasonally adjusted returns. The CPI is an unmanaged index representing the rate of inflation of the U.S. consumer prices as determined by the US Department of Labor Statistics. There can be no guarantee that the CPI or other indexes will reflect the exact level of inflation at any given time.

Past performance is no guarantee of future results. The performance quoted represents past performance. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that Fund shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. The Portfolio’s performance does not reflect the deduction of additional charges and expenses imposed in connection with investing in Variable Contracts, which will reduce returns. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. Performance data current to the most recent month-end is available by calling (800) 927-4648.

Expenses Paid During Period† | | | | $ | 3.45 | | | | $ | 3.51 |
† Expenses are equal to the Portfolio’s Advisor Class annualized expense ratio of 0.70%, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 181/365 (to reflect the one-half year period). The expense ratio excludes the expenses of the underlying Funds, which based upon the allocation of the Portfolio’s assets among the Underlying Funds are indirectly borne by the shareholders of the Portfolio. The Underlying Fund Expenses for the Portfolio are estimated at 0.63%. Overall fees and expenses of investing in the Portfolio will be higher because the example does not reflect Variable Contract fees and expenses.
Please refer to page 3 herein for a description of the Portfolio’s benchmark and an explanation of the information presented in the above Expense Example.
Portfolio Insights
» | | The PIMCO All Asset Portfolio seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing under normal circumstances substantially all of its assets in Institutional Class Shares of the Underlying Funds (i.e., any of the PIMCO Funds, except the All Asset and All Asset All Authority Funds). |
» | | Significant exposure to the Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities (“TIPS”) asset class detracted significantly from tactical asset allocation alpha due to the asset class, particularly longer dated TIPS, posting negative returns. |
» | | Less than optimal exposure to commodities detracted from performance, as the Dow Jones AIG Commodity Index returned 3.58% over the period. |
» | | Less than optimal exposure to Real Estate Investment Trusts (“REITs”) detracted from performance, as the Dow Jones Wilshire REIT Index gained 14.40% for the period. |
» | | Significant exposure to lower duration instruments was positive for performance, as lower duration assets tend to outperform assets with longer duration in a rising interest rate environment. Exposure to the Floating Rate Income Fund provided positive returns. |
» | | Significant exposure to the Developing Local Markets Fund and emerging market currencies added to performance with the fund returning 4.34%. |
» | | Exposure to the High Yield Fund was positive due to coupon selection providing solid returns for the period. |

Notes to Financial Statements
1. ORGANIZATION
The All Asset Portfolio (the “Portfolio”) is a series of the PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust (the “Trust”). The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “Act”), as amended, as an open-end investment management company organized as a Delaware business trust on October 3, 1997. The Portfolio offers four classes of shares: Institutional, Administrative, Advisor, and Class M. Information presented in these financial statements pertains to the Advisor Class of the Portfolio. Certain detailed financial information for the Institutional Class, Administrative Class and Class M are provided separately and are available upon request. The Trust is designed to be used as an investment vehicle by Separate Accounts of insurance companies that fund variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies and by qualified pension and retirement plans.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Portfolio in the preparation of its financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Security Valuation Investments in Funds within the PIMCO Funds are valued at their net asset value as reported by the Underlying Funds.
Securities Transactions and Investment Income. Securities transactions are recorded as of the trade date. Securities purchased or sold on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis may be settled a month or more after the trade date. Realized gains and losses from securities sold are recorded on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Portfolio is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, adjusted for the accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis. Paydown gains and losses on mortgage-related or asset-backed securities are recorded as components of interest income in the Statement of Operations.
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends from net investment income, if any, are declared and distributed to shareholders quarterly. Net realized capital gains earned by the Portfolio, if any, will be distributed no less frequently than once each year. Most shareholders choose to reinvest their dividends and capital gain distribution in additional shares of the Portfolio.
Income dividends and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP. Differences between tax regulations and GAAP may change the fiscal year when income and capital items are recognized for tax and GAAP purposes. Examples of events that give rise to timing differences include wash sales, straddles, net operating losses and capital loss carryforwards. Further, the character of investment income and capital gains may be different for certain transactions under the two methods of accounting. Examples of characterization differences include the treatment of mortgage paydowns, swaps, foreign currency transactions and contingent debt instruments. As a result, income dividends and capital gain distributions declared during a fiscal period may differ significantly from the net investment income and realized capital gain reported in the Portfolio’s annual financial statements presented under GAAP.
Distributions classified as a tax basis return of capital, if any, are reflected in the accompanying Statements of Changes in Net Assets and have been reclassified to paid in capital. In addition, other amounts have been reclassified between undistributed net investment income, accumulated undistributed net realized gains or losses and/or paid in capital to more appropriately conform financial accounting to tax characterizations of dividend distributions.
Multiclass Operations. Each class offered by the Portfolio has equal rights as to assets and voting privileges (except that shareholders of a class have exclusive voting rights regarding any matter relating solely to that class of shares). Income and non-class specific expenses of the Portfolio are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative value of settled shares. Realized and unrealized capital gains and losses of the Portfolio are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative net assets of each class. Class specific expenses, where applicable, currently include administrative, distribution and servicing fees.
Federal Income Taxes. The All Asset Portfolio (“the Portfolio”) intends to qualify as a regulated investment company and distribute all of its taxable income and net realized gains, if applicable, to shareholders. Accordingly, no provision for Federal income taxes has been made.
To the extent the All Asset Portfolio invest in the CommodityRealReturn Strategy Portfolio® (the “CRRS Portfolio”), an Underlying Fund, this Portfolio may be subject to the risks associated with commodity-linked derivative instruments.
One of the requirements for favorable tax treatment as a regulated investment company under the Code is that the CRRS Portfolio derive at least 90 percent of its gross income from certain qualifying sources of income. On December 16, 2005, the IRS issued Revenue Ruling 2006-01 which held that income from commodity index-linked swaps was not qualifying income. At the time Revenue Ruling 2006-01 was issued, the CRRS Portfolio invested primarily in commodity index-linked swaps to gain exposure to the commodity markets. Revenue Ruling 2006-01 provided an effective date of June 30, 2006, after which time the CRRS Portfolio’s ability to utilize commodity index-linked swaps as part of its investment strategy will be limited to a maximum of 10 percent of its gross income.
On June 2, 2006, the IRS issued Revenue Ruling 2006-31 which extends the effective date for Revenue Ruling 2006-01 from June 30, 2006 until September 30, 2006. Revenue Ruling 2006-31 also clarifies the holding of Revenue Ruling 2006-01 by providing that income from alternative instruments (such as certain commodity index-linked notes) that create commodity exposure may be considered qualifying income under the Code. In addition, the IRS has also issued private letter rulings to at least two other funds in which the IRS specifically concluded that income from certain commodity index-linked notes is qualifying income. The CRRS Portfolio has also obtained an opinion of counsel with respect to the treatment of income from commodity index-linked notes as qualifying income under the Code. Such an opinion is not binding upon the IRS.
Based on Revenue Ruling 2006-31, IRS guidance and advice of counsel, the CRRS Portfolio will seek to gain exposure to the commodity markets primarily through investments in commodity indexlinked notes. The use of commodity index-linked notes involves specific risks. The CRRS Portfolio will continue to seek ways to make use of other commodity-linked derivative instruments, including swap agreements, commodity options, futures and options on futures, and alternative structures within the Portfolio to gain exposure to commodity markets. Please refer to the prospectus for the Separate Account and Variable Contract for information regarding federal income tax treatment of distributions to the Separate Account.
Guarantees and Indemnifications. Under the Trust’s organizational documents, each Trustee, officer, employee or other agent of the Trust (including the Trust’s investment manager) is indemnified against certain liabilities that may arise out of performance of their duties to the Portfolio. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Portfolio enters into contracts that contain a variety of
| | | | |
10 | | PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust | | |
| | |
| |
| | June 30, 2006 (Unaudited) |
indemnification clauses. The Portfolio’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Portfolio that have not yet occurred. However, the Portfolio has not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts, and believes the risk of loss to be remote.
Underlying Funds. The Portfolio may invest in any or all of the Underlying Funds, but will not normally invest in every Underlying Fund at any particular time. The Underlying Funds are the Institutional Class shares of the PIMCO Funds, an affiliated open-end investment company, except All Asset and All Asset All Authority Funds. Though it is anticipated that the All Asset Portfolio will not currently invest in the European StocksPLUS® Total Return Strategy, Far East (ex-Japan) StocksPLUS® Total Return Strategy, Japanese StocksPLUS® TR Strategy, StocksPLUS® Municipal-Backed and StocksPLUS® TR Short Strategy Funds, the Portfolio may invest in these Funds in the future, without shareholder approval, at the discretion of the Portfolio’s asset allocation sub-adviser.
New Accounting Policies. In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes—an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (the “Interpretation”). The Interpretation is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. Management is currently evaluating the application of the Interpretation to the Portfolio and will provide additional information in relation to the Interpretation in the Portfolio’s annual financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2006.
3. FEES, EXPENSES, AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Investment Advisory Fee. PIMCO is a majority-owned subsidiary of Allianz Global Investors of America L.P. (“AGI”), and serves as investment adviser (the “Adviser”) to the Trust, pursuant to an investment advisory contract. The Adviser receives a monthly fee at an annual rate based on average daily net assets of the Portfolio. The Advisory Fee is charged at an annual rate of 0.20%.
Administration Fee. PIMCO serves as administrator (the “Administrator”), and provides administrative services to the Trust for which it receives a monthly administrative fee based on average daily net assets of the Portfolio. As the Administrator, PIMCO bears the costs of various third-party services, including audit, custodial, portfolio accounting, legal, transfer agency and printing costs. The Administration Fee is charged at the annual rate of 0.25%.
Distribution and Servicing Fees. Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC (“AGID”) is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of AGI and serves as the distributor of the Trust’s shares. The Trust is permitted to reimburse AGID on a quarterly basis, out of the Administrative Class assets of the Portfolio in the amount of 0.15% on an annual basis of the average daily net assets of that class, for payments made to financial intermediaries that provide services in connection with the distribution of shares or administration of plans or programs that use Portfolio shares as their funding medium. The effective rate paid to AGID was 0.15% during the current fiscal year.
Expenses. The Trust is responsible for the following expenses: (i) salaries and other compensation of any of the Trust’s executive officers and employees who are not officers, directors, stockholders or employees of PIMCO or its subsidiaries or affiliates; (ii) taxes and governmental fees; (iii) brokerage fees and commissions and other portfolio transaction expenses; (iv) the costs of borrowing money, including interest expenses and bank overdraft charges; (v) fees and expenses of the Trustees who are not “interested persons” of PIMCO or the Trust, and any counsel retained exclusively for their benefit; (vi) extraordinary expenses, including costs of litigation and indemnification expenses; (vii) organization expenses and (viii) any expenses allocated or allocable to a specific class of shares, which include service fees payable with respect to the Administrative Class shares and may include certain other expenses as permitted by the Trust’s Multiple Class Plan adopted pursuant to Rule 18f-3 under the Act and subject to review and approval by the Trustees. The ratio of expenses to average net assets per share class, as disclosed in the Financial Highlights, may differ from the annual portfolio operating expenses per share class as disclosed in the Prospectus for the reasons set forth above.
PIMCO has agreed to waive a portion of its administrative fees to the extent that the payment of the Portfolio’s pro rata share of organization expenses and Trustee fees cause the actual expense ratio to rise above the rates disclosed in the then-current prospectus plus 0.49 basis points as set forth below (calculated as a percentage of the Portfolio’s average daily net assets attributable to each class):
| | | |
Administrative Class | | 0.60 | % |
PIMCO may be reimbursed for these waived amounts in future periods, not to exceed thirty-six months. Expenses that have been waived and may still be reimbursed by the Administrator, to the extent the Portfolio’s annualized total portfolio operating expenses plus the amount so reimbursed does not exceed the operating expense limitation, are as follows (amounts in thousands):
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | | | | Year of Waiver |
| | | | | 12/31/2003 | | | | | 12/31/2004 | | | | | 12/31/2005 | | | | | 06/30/2006 |
Amount Available for Reimbursement | | | | $ | 12 | | | | $ | 0 | | | | $ | 0 | | | | $ | 0 |
For the current period ended June 30, 2006, each unaffiliated Trustee received an annual retainer of $15,000, plus $2,000 for each Board of Trustees quarterly meeting attended, $500 for each Board of Trustees committee meeting attended and $500 for each special board meeting attended, plus reimbursement of related expenses. In addition, each Committee Chair received an additional annual retainer of $500 and each Audit Committee Chair received an additional annual retainer of $1,500. These expenses are allocated on a pro-rata basis to each Portfolio of the Trust according to its respective net assets. The Trust pays no compensation directly to any Trustee or any other officer who is affiliated with the Administrator, all of whom receive remuneration for their services to the Trust from the Administrator or its affiliates.
4. PURCHASES AND SALES OF SECURITIES
The length of time the Portfolio has held a particular security is not generally a consideration in investment decisions. A change in the securities held by the Portfolio is known as “portfolio turnover”. The Portfolio may engage in frequent and active trading of portfolio securities to achieve its investment objective, particularly during periods of volatile market movements. High portfolio turnover (e.g., over 100%) involves correspondingly greater expenses to the Portfolio, including brokerage commissions or dealer mark-ups and other transaction costs on the sale of securities and reinvestments in other securities. Such sales may also result in realization of taxable capital gains, including short-term capital gains (which are generally taxed at ordinary income tax rates). The trading costs and tax effects associated with portfolio turnover may adversely affect the Portfolio’s performance.
Purchases and sales of securities (excluding short-term investments) for the period ended June 30, 2006 were as follows (amounts in thousands):

7. FEDERAL INCOME TAX MATTERS
As of June 30, 2006, the aggregate cost of investments was the same for federal income tax and financial statement purposes. The net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of investment securities for federal income tax purposes is as follows (amounts in thousands):
| | | | |
Aggregate Gross Unrealized Appreciation | | Aggregate Gross Unrealized (Depreciation) | | Net Unrealized (Depreciation) |
$ 1,463 | | $ (10,857) | | $ (9,394) |
8. REGULATORY AND LITIGATION MATTERS
On June 1, 2004, the Attorney General of the State of New Jersey announced that it had dismissed PIMCO from a complaint filed by the New Jersey Attorney General on February 17, 2004, and that it had entered into a settlement agreement (the “New Jersey Settlement”) with Allianz Global Investors of America L.P. (“AGI”) (formerly known as Allianz Dresdner Asset Management of America L.P.), PEA Capital LLC (an entity affiliated with PIMCO through common ownership) (“PEA”) and Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC (“AGID”), in connection with the same matter. In the New Jersey Settlement, AGI, PEA and AGID neither admitted nor denied the allegations or conclusions of law, but did agree to pay New Jersey a civil fine of $15 million and $3 million for investigative costs and further potential enforcement initiatives against unrelated parties. They also undertook to implement certain governance changes. The complaint relating to the New Jersey Settlement alleged, among other things, that AGI, PEA and AGID had failed to disclose that they improperly allowed certain hedge funds to engage in “market timing” in certain funds. The complaint sought injunctive relief, civil monetary penalties, restitution and disgorgement of profits.
Since February 2004, PIMCO, AGI, PEA, AGID, and certain of their affiliates, including the PIMCO Funds, the Allianz Funds (formerly known as PIMCO Funds: Multi-Manager Series), and the Trustees and employees of the PIMCO Funds, have been named as defendants in fifteen lawsuits filed in various jurisdictions. Eleven of those lawsuits concern “market timing,” and they have been transferred to and consolidated for pre-trial proceedings in a multi-district litigation proceeding in the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland; the other four lawsuits concern “revenue sharing” and have been consolidated into a single action in the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut. The lawsuits have been commenced as putative class actions on behalf of investors who purchased, held or redeemed shares of the various series of the PIMCO Funds and the Allianz Funds during specified periods, or as derivative actions on behalf of the PIMCO Funds and Allianz Funds.
The market timing actions in the District of Maryland generally allege that certain hedge funds were allowed to engage in “market timing” in certain of the Allianz Funds and the PIMCO Funds and this alleged activity was not disclosed. Pursuant to tolling agreements entered into with the derivative and class action plaintiffs, PIMCO, the Trustees, and certain employees of PIMCO who were previously named as defendants have all been dropped as defendants in the market timing actions; the plaintiffs continue to assert claims on behalf of the shareholders of the PIMCO Funds or on behalf of the PIMCO Funds themselves against other defendants. By order dated November 3, 2005, the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland granted the PIMCO Funds’ motion to dismiss claims asserted against it in a consolidated amended complaint where the PIMCO Funds were named, in the complaint, as a nominal defendant. The revenue sharing action in the District of Connecticut generally alleges that fund assets were inappropriately used to pay brokers to promote the Allianz Funds and PIMCO Funds, including directing fund brokerage transactions to such brokers, and that such alleged arrangements were not fully disclosed to shareholders. On August 11, 2005 the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut conducted a hearing on defendants’ motion to dismiss the consolidated amended complaint in the revenue sharing action but has not yet ruled on the motion to dismiss. The market timing and revenue sharing lawsuits seek, among other things, unspecified compensatory damages plus interest and, in some cases, punitive damages, the rescission of investment advisory contracts, the return of fees paid under those contracts and restitution.
Under Section 9(a) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“1940 Act”), if the New Jersey Settlement or any of the lawsuits described above were to result in a court injunction against AGI, PEA, AGID and/or their affiliates, PIMCO could, in the absence of exemptive relief granted by the SEC, be barred from serving as an investment adviser, and AGID could be barred from serving as principal underwriter, to any registered investment company, including the Portfolios of the Trust. In connection with an inquiry from the SEC concerning the status of the New Jersey Settlement under Section 9(a), PEA, AGID, AGI and certain of their affiliates (including PIMCO) (together, the “Applicants”) have sought exemptive relief from the SEC under Section 9(c) of the 1940 Act. The SEC has granted the Applicants a temporary exemption from the provisions of Section 9(a) with respect to the New Jersey Settlement until the earlier of (i) September 13, 2006 and (ii) the date on which the SEC takes final action on their application for a permanent order. There is no assurance that the SEC will issue a permanent order.
Two nearly identical class action civil complaints have been filed in August 2005, in the Northern District of Illinois Eastern Division alleging that the plaintiffs each purchased and sold a 10-year Treasury note futures contract and suffered damages from an alleged shortage when PIMCO held both physical and futures positions in 10-year Treasury notes for its client accounts. The two actions have been consolidated into one action, and the two separate complaints have been replaced by a consolidated complaint. PIMCO is a named defendant, and the PIMCO Funds have been added as a defendant, to the consolidated action. PIMCO strongly believes the complaint (and any consolidated complaint filed hereafter) is without merit and intends to vigorously defend itself.
Certain Portfolios of the Trust were recently served in an adversary proceeding brought by the Official Committee of Asbestos Claimants of G-I Holdings, Inc. in G-I Holdings, Inc.’s bankruptcy in the District of New Jersey. PIMCO was previously named in this lawsuit and remains a defendant. The plaintiff seeks to recover for the bankruptcy estate assets that were transferred by the predecessor entity of G-I Holdings, Inc. to a wholly-owned subsidiary in 1994. The subsidiary has since issued notes, of which certain Portfolios of the Trust are alleged to be holders. The complaint alleges that in 2000, more than two hundred noteholders —including certain Portfolios of the Trust—were granted a second priority lien on the assets of the subsidiary in exchange for their consent to a refinancing transaction and the granting of a first priority lien to the lending banks. The plaintiff is seeking invalidation of the lien in favor of the noteholders and/or the value of the lien.
It is possible that these matters and/or other developments resulting from these matters could result in increased fund redemptions or other adverse consequences to the Portfolios. However, PIMCO and AGID believe that these matters are not likely to have a material adverse effect on the Portfolios or on PIMCO’s or AGID’s ability to perform their respective investment advisory or distribution services relating to the Portfolios.

Chairman’s Letter
Dear PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust Shareholder:
It is our pleasure to present to you the semiannual report for the PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust covering the six-month period ended June 30, 2006.
Highlights of the global bond markets during the six-month period included:
| n | | Most fixed-income sectors lost ground during the first half of 2006, as concern about accelerating inflation and central bank tightening pushed interest rates higher worldwide. The benchmark Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index (which includes Treasury, Investment-Grade Corporate, and Residential Mortgage-Backed Securities) returned -0.72% for the first six months of the year. On June 30, the benchmark ten-year Treasury yielded 5.14%, 0.75% higher than at the start of the year. The U.S. yield curve remained flat as shorter-maturity yields rose by a comparable amount. |
| n | | The Federal Reserve tightened four times during the reporting period, bringing the Federal Funds Rate to 5.25%. The increase near the end of the period was the Federal Reserve’s 17th consecutive rate hike since the start of its tightening cycle in 2004. The Federal Reserve was not alone, as central banks in Europe, India, and China tightened credit in unison for the first time since 2000. The Bank of Japan, whose zero-interest-rate policy has flooded global markets with liquidity, looked set to reverse this policy in the coming months. |
In these pages please find a more complete Portfolio review as it relates to financial-market activities, as well as details about total-return investment performance for the six-month reporting period. Thank you for the trust you have placed in us. We will continue to work diligently to meet your investment needs.
Sincerely,

Brent R. Harris
Chairman, PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust

Important Information About the Portfolio
PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust (the “Trust”) is an open-end management investment company currently consisting of nineteen separate investment portfolios, including the All Asset Portfolio (the “Portfolio”). The Portfolio is only available as a funding vehicle under variable life insurance policies or variable annuity contracts issued by insurance companies (“Variable Contracts”). Individuals may not purchase shares of the Portfolio directly. Shares of the Portfolio also may be sold to qualified pension and retirement plans outside of the separate account context.
The Portfolio is a “fund of funds,” which is a term used to describe mutual funds that pursue their investment objective by investing in other mutual funds instead of investing directly in stocks or bonds of other issuers. Under normal circumstances, the Portfolio invests substantially all of its assets in Institutional Class shares of PIMCO Funds, an affiliated open-end investment company, except the All Asset and All Asset All Authority Funds (“Underlying Funds”).
Among the principal risks of investing in the Portfolio are allocation risk, Underlying Fund risk and issuer non-diversification risk. The Portfolio also is indirectly subject to the risks of the Underlying Funds, which may include, but are not limited to, the following: interest rate risk, credit risk, high yield risk, market risk, issuer risk, variable dividends risk, liquidity risk, derivatives risk, commodity risk, equity risk, mortgage risk, non-U.S. investment risk, real estate risk, emerging markets risk, currency risk, issuer non-diversification risk, leveraging risk, small company risk, management risk, California state specific risk, New York state specific risk, tax risk and index risk. A complete description of these risks is contained in the Portfolio’s prospectus. An Underlying Fund may use derivative instruments for hedging purposes or as part of an investment strategy. Use of these instruments may involve certain costs and risks such as liquidity risk, interest rate risk, market risk, credit risk, management risk and the risk that the Underlying Fund could not close out a position when it would be most advantageous to do so. An Underlying Fund investing in derivatives could lose more than the principal amount invested in these instruments. Investing in non-U.S. securities may entail risk due to non-U.S. economic and political developments; this risk may be increased when investing in emerging markets.
The cost of investing in the Portfolio will generally be higher than the cost of investing in a mutual fund that invests directly in individual stocks and bonds. By investing in the Portfolio, an investor will indirectly bear fees and expenses charged by the Underlying Funds in addition to the Portfolio’s direct fees and expenses.
On the performance summary page in this Semiannual Report, the Total Return Investment Performance table measures performance assuming that all dividend and capital gain distributions were reinvested.
An investment in the Portfolio is not a deposit of a bank and is not guaranteed or insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. It is possible to lose money on investments in the Portfolio.
PIMCO has adopted written proxy voting policies and procedures (“Proxy Policy”) as required by Rule 206(4)-6 under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940. The Proxy Policy has been adopted by the Trust as the policies and procedures that PIMCO will use when voting proxies on behalf of the Portfolio. Copies of the written Proxy Policy and the factors that PIMCO may consider in determining how to vote proxies for the Portfolio, and information about how the Portfolio voted proxies relating to portfolio securities held during the most recent twelve-month period ended June 30, are available without charge, upon request, by calling the Trust at 1-866-746-2606 and on the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) website at http://www.sec.gov.
The Portfolio files its complete schedule of portfolio holdings with the SEC for the first and third quarters of each fiscal year on Form N-Q. A copy of the Trust’s Form N-Q is available on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov and may be reviewed and copied at the SEC’s Public Reference Room in Washington D.C. Information on the operation of the Public Reference Room may be obtained by calling 1-800-SEC-0330.
PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust is distributed by Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC, 2187 Atlantic Street, Stamford, CT 06902.

The following disclosure provides important information regarding the Portfolio’s Expense Example (“Example” or “Expense Example”), which appears in this Semiannual Report. Please refer to this information when reviewing the Expense Example for the Portfolio.
Example
As a shareholder of the Portfolio, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs and (2) ongoing costs, including advisory and administrative fees; distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees (Administrative Class, Advisor Class and Class M only); and other Portfolio expenses. The Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Portfolio and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Expense Example does not reflect any fees or other expenses imposed by the Variable Contracts. If it did, the expenses reflected in the Expense Examples would be higher. The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period indicated, which is from January 1, 2006 to June 30, 2006.
Actual Expenses
The information in the table under the heading “Actual Performance” provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in these columns, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.60), then multiply the result by the number in the appropriate column for your share class, in the row titled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The information in the table under the heading “Hypothetical Performance (5% return before expenses)” provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Portfolio’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Portfolio’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Portfolio and other portfolios. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other portfolios.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs. Therefore, the information under the heading “Hypothetical Performance (5% return before expenses)” is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different portfolios. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.
The expense ratio may vary period to period because of various factors, such as an increase in expenses not covered by the advisory and administrative fees (such as expenses of the trustees and their counsel or litigation expense).
Portfolio Benchmarks
Lehman Brothers U.S. TIPS: 1-10 Year is an unmanaged index market comprised of U.S. Treasury Inflation Linked securities having a maturity of at least 1 year and less than 10 years. It is not possible to invest directly in such an unmanaged index.
The CPI + 500 Basis Points benchmark is created by adding 5% to the annual percentage change in the Consumer Price Index (“CPI”). This index reflects non-seasonally adjusted returns. The CPI is an unmanaged index representing the rate of inflation of the U.S. consumer prices as determined by the US Department of Labor Statistics. There can be no guarantee that the CPI or other indexes will reflect the exact level of inflation at any given time.

Past performance is no guarantee of future results. The performance quoted represents past performance. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that Fund shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. The Portfolio’s performance does not reflect the deduction of additional charges and expenses imposed in connection with investing in Variable Contracts, which will reduce returns. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. Performance data current to the most recent month-end is available by calling (800) 927-4648.

Expenses Paid During Period† | | | | $ | 4.43 | | | | $ | 4.51 |
† Expenses are equal to the Portfolio’s Class M annualized expense ratio of 0.90%, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 181/365 (to reflect the one-half year period). The expense ratio excludes the expenses of the Underlying Funds, which based upon the allocation of the Portfolio’s assets among the Underlying Funds are indirectly borne by the shareholders of the Portfolio. The Underlying Fund Expenses for the Portfolio are estimated at 0.63%. Overall fees and expenses of investing in the Portfolio will be higher because the example does not reflect Variable Contract fees and expenses.
Please refer to page 3 herein for a description of the Portfolio’s benchmark and an explanation of the information presented in the above Expense Example.
Portfolio Insights
» | | The PIMCO All Asset Portfolio seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing under normal circumstances substantially all of its assets in Institutional Class Shares of the Underlying Funds (i.e., any of the PIMCO Funds, except the All Asset and All Asset All Authority Funds). |
» | | Significant exposure to the Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities (“TIPS”) asset class detracted significantly from tactical asset allocation alpha due to the asset class, particularly longer dated TIPS, posting negative returns. |
» | | Less than optimal exposure to commodities detracted from performance, as the Dow Jones AIG Commodity Index returned 3.58% over the period. |
» | | Less than optimal exposure to Real Estate Investment Trusts (“REITs”) detracted from performance, as the Dow Jones Wilshire REIT Index gained 14.40% for the period. |
» | | Significant exposure to lower duration instruments was positive for performance, as lower duration assets tend to outperform assets with longer duration in a rising interest rate environment. Exposure to the Floating Rate Income Fund provided positive returns. |
» | | Significant exposure to the Developing Local Markets Fund and emerging market currencies added to performance with the fund returning 4.34%. |
» | | Exposure to the High Yield Fund was positive due to coupon selection providing solid returns for the period. |

Notes to Financial Statements
1. ORGANIZATION
The All Asset Portfolio (the “Portfolio”) is a series of the PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust (the “Trust”). The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “Act”), as amended, as an open-end investment management company organized as a Delaware business trust on October 3, 1997. The Portfolio offers four classes of shares: Institutional, Administrative, Advisor, and Class M. Information presented in these financial statements pertains to the Class M of the Portfolio. Certain detailed financial information for the Institutional Class, Advisor Class and Administrative Class are provided separately and are available upon request. The Trust is designed to be used as an investment vehicle by Separate Accounts of insurance companies that fund variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies and by qualified pension and retirement plans.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Portfolio in the preparation of its financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Security Valuation Investments in Funds within the PIMCO Funds are valued at their net asset value as reported by the Underlying Funds.
Securities Transactions and Investment Income. Securities transactions are recorded as of the trade date. Securities purchased or sold on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis may be settled a month or more after the trade date. Realized gains and losses from securities sold are recorded on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Portfolio is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, adjusted for the accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis. Paydown gains and losses on mortgage-related or asset-backed securities are recorded as components of interest income in the Statement of Operations.
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends from net investment income, if any, are declared and distributed to shareholders quarterly. Net realized capital gains earned by the Portfolio, if any, will be distributed no less frequently than once each year. Most shareholders choose to reinvest their dividends and capital gain distribution in additional shares of the Portfolio.
Income dividends and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP. Differences between tax regulations and GAAP may change the fiscal year when income and capital items are recognized for tax and GAAP purposes. Examples of events that give rise to timing differences include wash sales, straddles, net operating losses and capital loss carryforwards. Further, the character of investment income and capital gains may be different for certain transactions under the two methods of accounting. Examples of characterization differences include the treatment of mortgage paydowns, swaps, foreign currency transactions and contingent debt instruments. As a result, income dividends and capital gain distributions declared during a fiscal period may differ significantly from the net investment income and realized capital gain reported in the Portfolio’s annual financial statements presented under GAAP.
Distributions classified as a tax basis return of capital, if any, are reflected in the accompanying Statements of Changes in Net Assets and have been reclassified to paid in capital. In addition, other amounts have been reclassified between undistributed net investment income, accumulated undistributed net realized gains or losses and/or paid in capital to more appropriately conform financial accounting to tax characterizations of dividend distributions.
Multiclass Operations. Each class offered by the Portfolio has equal rights as to assets and voting privileges (except that shareholders of a class have exclusive voting rights regarding any matter relating solely to that class of shares). Income and non-class specific expenses of the Portfolio are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative value of settled shares. Realized and unrealized capital gains and losses of the Portfolio are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative net assets of each class. Class specific expenses, where applicable, currently include administrative, distribution and servicing fees.
Federal Income Taxes. The All Asset Portfolio (“the Portfolio”) intends to qualify as a regulated investment company and distribute all of its taxable income and net realized gains, if applicable, to shareholders. Accordingly, no provision for Federal income taxes has been made.
To the extent the All Asset Portfolio invest in the CommodityRealReturn Strategy Portfolio® (the “CRRS Portfolio”), an Underlying Fund, this Portfolio may be subject to the risks associated with commodity-linked derivative instruments.
One of the requirements for favorable tax treatment as a regulated investment company under the Code is that the CRRS Portfolio derive at least 90 percent of its gross income from certain qualifying sources of income. On December 16, 2005, the IRS issued Revenue Ruling 2006-01 which held that income from commodity index-linked swaps was not qualifying income. At the time Revenue Ruling 2006-01 was issued, the CRRS Portfolio invested primarily in commodity index-linked swaps to gain exposure to the commodity markets. Revenue Ruling 2006-01 provided an effective date of June 30, 2006, after which time the CRRS Portfolio’s ability to utilize commodity index-linked swaps as part of its investment strategy will be limited to a maximum of 10 percent of its gross income.
On June 2, 2006, the IRS issued Revenue Ruling 2006-31 which extends the effective date for Revenue Ruling 2006-01 from June 30, 2006 until September 30, 2006. Revenue Ruling 2006-31 also clarifies the holding of Revenue Ruling 2006-01 by providing that income from alternative instruments (such as certain commodity index-linked notes) that create commodity exposure may be considered qualifying income under the Code. In addition, the IRS has also issued private letter rulings to at least two other funds in which the IRS specifically concluded that income from certain commodity index-linked notes is qualifying income. The CRRS Portfolio has also obtained an opinion of counsel with respect to the treatment of income from commodity index-linked notes as qualifying income under the Code. Such an opinion is not binding upon the IRS.
Based on Revenue Ruling 2006-31, IRS guidance and advice of counsel, the CRRS Portfolio will seek to gain exposure to the commodity markets primarily through investments in commodity indexlinked notes. The use of commodity index-linked notes involves specific risks. The CRRS Portfolio will continue to seek ways to make use of other commodity-linked derivative instruments, including swap agreements, commodity options, futures and options on futures, and alternative structures within the Portfolio to gain exposure to commodity markets. Please refer to the prospectus for the Separate Account and Variable Contract for information regarding federal income tax treatment of distributions to the Separate Account.
Guarantees and Indemnifications. Under the Trust’s organizational documents, each Trustee, officer, employee or other agent of the Trust (including the Trust’s investment manager) is indemnified against certain liabilities that may arise out of performance of their duties to the Portfolio. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Portfolio enters into contracts that contain a variety of
| | | | |
10 | | PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust | | |
| | |
| |
| | June 30, 2006 (Unaudited) |
indemnification clauses. The Portfolio’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Portfolio that have not yet occurred. However, the Portfolio has not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts, and believes the risk of loss to be remote.
Underlying Funds. The Portfolio may invest in any or all of the Underlying Funds, but will not normally invest in every Underlying Fund at any particular time. The Underlying Funds are the Institutional Class shares of the PIMCO Funds, an affiliated open-end investment company, except All Asset and All Asset All Authority Funds. Though it is anticipated that the All Asset Portfolio will not currently invest in the European StocksPLUS® Total Return Strategy, Far East (ex-Japan) StocksPLUS® Total Return Strategy, Japanese StocksPLUS® TR Strategy, StocksPLUS® Municipal-Backed and StocksPLUS® TR Short Strategy Funds, the Portfolio may invest in these Funds in the future, without shareholder approval, at the discretion of the Portfolio’s asset allocation sub-adviser.
New Accounting Policies. In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes—an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (the “Interpretation”). The Interpretation is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. Management is currently evaluating the application of the Interpretation to the Portfolio and will provide additional information in relation to the Interpretation in the Portfolio’s annual financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2006.
3. FEES, EXPENSES, AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Investment Advisory Fee. PIMCO is a majority-owned subsidiary of Allianz Global Investors of America L.P. (“AGI”), and serves as investment adviser (the “Adviser”) to the Trust, pursuant to an investment advisory contract. The Adviser receives a monthly fee at an annual rate based on average daily net assets of the Portfolio. The Advisory Fee is charged at an annual rate of 0.20%.
Administration Fee. PIMCO serves as administrator (the “Administrator”), and provides administrative services to the Trust for which it receives a monthly administrative fee based on average daily net assets of the Portfolio. As the Administrator, PIMCO bears the costs of various third-party services, including audit, custodial, portfolio accounting, legal, transfer agency and printing costs. The Administration Fee is charged at the annual rate of 0.25%.
Distribution and Servicing Fees. Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC (“AGID”) is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of AGI and serves as the distributor of the Trust’s shares. The Trust is permitted to reimburse AGID on a quarterly basis, out of the Administrative Class assets of the Portfolio in the amount of 0.15% on an annual basis of the average daily net assets of that class, for payments made to financial intermediaries that provide services in connection with the distribution of shares or administration of plans or programs that use Portfolio shares as their funding medium. The effective rate paid to AGID was 0.15% during the current fiscal year.
Expenses. The Trust is responsible for the following expenses: (i) salaries and other compensation of any of the Trust’s executive officers and employees who are not officers, directors, stockholders or employees of PIMCO or its subsidiaries or affiliates; (ii) taxes and governmental fees; (iii) brokerage fees and commissions and other portfolio transaction expenses; (iv) the costs of borrowing money, including interest expenses and bank overdraft charges; (v) fees and expenses of the Trustees who are not “interested persons” of PIMCO or the Trust, and any counsel retained exclusively for their benefit; (vi) extraordinary expenses, including costs of litigation and indemnification expenses; (vii) organization expenses and (viii) any expenses allocated or allocable to a specific class of shares, which include service fees payable with respect to the Administrative Class shares and may include certain other expenses as permitted by the Trust’s Multiple Class Plan adopted pursuant to Rule 18f-3 under the Act and subject to review and approval by the Trustees. The ratio of expenses to average net assets per share class, as disclosed in the Financial Highlights, may differ from the annual portfolio operating expenses per share class as disclosed in the Prospectus for the reasons set forth above.
PIMCO has agreed to waive a portion of its administrative fees to the extent that the payment of the Portfolio’s pro rata share of organization expenses and Trustee fees cause the actual expense ratio to rise above the rates disclosed in the then-current prospectus plus 0.49 basis points as set forth below (calculated as a percentage of the Portfolio’s average daily net assets attributable to each class):
| | | |
Administrative Class | | 0.60 | % |
PIMCO may be reimbursed for these waived amounts in future periods, not to exceed thirty-six months. Expenses that have been waived and may still be reimbursed by the Administrator, to the extent the Portfolio’s annualized total portfolio operating expenses plus the amount so reimbursed does not exceed the operating expense limitation, are as follows (amounts in thousands):
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | | | | Year of Waiver |
| | | | | 12/31/2003 | | | | | 12/31/2004 | | | | | 12/31/2005 | | | | | 06/30/2006 |
Amount Available for Reimbursement | | | | $ | 12 | | | | $ | 0 | | | | $ | 0 | | | | $ | 0 |
For the current period ended June 30, 2006, each unaffiliated Trustee received an annual retainer of $15,000, plus $2,000 for each Board of Trustees quarterly meeting attended, $500 for each Board of Trustees committee meeting attended and $500 for each special board meeting attended, plus reimbursement of related expenses. In addition, each Committee Chair received an additional annual retainer of $500 and each Audit Committee Chair received an additional annual retainer of $1,500. These expenses are allocated on a pro-rata basis to each Portfolio of the Trust according to its respective net assets. The Trust pays no compensation directly to any Trustee or any other officer who is affiliated with the Administrator, all of whom receive remuneration for their services to the Trust from the Administrator or its affiliates.
4. PURCHASES AND SALES OF SECURITIES
The length of time the Portfolio has held a particular security is not generally a consideration in investment decisions. A change in the securities held by the Portfolio is known as “portfolio turnover”. The Portfolio may engage in frequent and active trading of portfolio securities to achieve its investment objective, particularly during periods of volatile market movements. High portfolio turnover (e.g., over 100%) involves correspondingly greater expenses to the Portfolio, including brokerage commissions or dealer mark-ups and other transaction costs on the sale of securities and reinvestments in other securities. Such sales may also result in realization of taxable capital gains, including short-term capital gains (which are generally taxed at ordinary income tax rates). The trading costs and tax effects associated with portfolio turnover may adversely affect the Portfolio’s performance.
Purchases and sales of securities (excluding short-term investments) for the period ended June 30, 2006 were as follows (amounts in thousands):

Aggregate Gross Unrealized Appreciation | | Aggregate Gross Unrealized (Depreciation) | | Net Unrealized (Depreciation) |
$ 1,463 | | $ (10,857) | | $ (9,394) |
8. REGULATORY AND LITIGATION MATTERS
On June 1, 2004, the Attorney General of the State of New Jersey announced that it had dismissed PIMCO from a complaint filed by the New Jersey Attorney General on February 17, 2004, and that it had entered into a settlement agreement (the “New Jersey Settlement”) with Allianz Global Investors of America L.P. (“AGI”) (formerly known as Allianz Dresdner Asset Management of America L.P.), PEA Capital LLC (an entity affiliated with PIMCO through common ownership) (“PEA���) and Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC (“AGID”), in connection with the same matter. In the New Jersey Settlement, AGI, PEA and AGID neither admitted nor denied the allegations or conclusions of law, but did agree to pay New Jersey a civil fine of $15 million and $3 million for investigative costs and further potential enforcement initiatives against unrelated parties. They also undertook to implement certain governance changes. The complaint relating to the New Jersey Settlement alleged, among other things, that AGI, PEA and AGID had failed to disclose that they improperly allowed certain hedge funds to engage in “market timing” in certain funds. The complaint sought injunctive relief, civil monetary penalties, restitution and disgorgement of profits.
Since February 2004, PIMCO, AGI, PEA, AGID, and certain of their affiliates, including the PIMCO Funds, the Allianz Funds (formerly known as PIMCO Funds: Multi-Manager Series), and the Trustees and employees of the PIMCO Funds, have been named as defendants in fifteen lawsuits filed in various jurisdictions. Eleven of those lawsuits concern “market timing,” and they have been transferred to and consolidated for pre-trial proceedings in a multi-district litigation proceeding in the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland; the other four lawsuits concern “revenue sharing” and have been consolidated into a single action in the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut. The lawsuits have been commenced as putative class actions on behalf of investors who purchased, held or redeemed shares of the various series of the PIMCO Funds and the Allianz Funds during specified periods, or as derivative actions on behalf of the PIMCO Funds and Allianz Funds.
The market timing actions in the District of Maryland generally allege that certain hedge funds were allowed to engage in “market timing” in certain of the Allianz Funds and the PIMCO Funds and this alleged activity was not disclosed. Pursuant to tolling agreements entered into with the derivative and class action plaintiffs, PIMCO, the Trustees, and certain employees of PIMCO who were previously named as defendants have all been dropped as defendants in the market timing actions; the plaintiffs continue to assert claims on behalf of the shareholders of the PIMCO Funds or on behalf of the PIMCO Funds themselves against other defendants. By order dated November 3, 2005, the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland granted the PIMCO Funds’ motion to dismiss claims asserted against it in a consolidated amended complaint where the PIMCO Funds were named, in the complaint, as a nominal defendant. The revenue sharing action in the District of Connecticut generally alleges that fund assets were inappropriately used to pay brokers to promote the Allianz Funds and PIMCO Funds, including directing fund brokerage transactions to such brokers, and that such alleged arrangements were not fully disclosed to shareholders. On August 11, 2005 the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut conducted a hearing on defendants’ motion to dismiss the consolidated amended complaint in the revenue sharing action but has not yet ruled on the motion to dismiss. The market timing and revenue sharing lawsuits seek, among other things, unspecified compensatory damages plus interest and, in some cases, punitive damages, the rescission of investment advisory contracts, the return of fees paid under those contracts and restitution.
Under Section 9(a) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“1940 Act”), if the New Jersey Settlement or any of the lawsuits described above were to result in a court injunction against AGI, PEA, AGID and/or their affiliates, PIMCO could, in the absence of exemptive relief granted by the SEC, be barred from serving as an investment adviser, and AGID could be barred from serving as principal underwriter, to any registered investment company, including the Portfolios of the Trust. In connection with an inquiry from the SEC concerning the status of the New Jersey Settlement under Section 9(a), PEA, AGID, AGI and certain of their affiliates (including PIMCO) (together, the “Applicants”) have sought exemptive relief from the SEC under Section 9(c) of the 1940 Act. The SEC has granted the Applicants a temporary exemption from the provisions of Section 9(a) with respect to the New Jersey Settlement until the earlier of (i) September 13, 2006 and (ii) the date on which the SEC takes final action on their application for a permanent order. There is no assurance that the SEC will issue a permanent order.
Two nearly identical class action civil complaints have been filed in August 2005, in the Northern District of Illinois Eastern Division alleging that the plaintiffs each purchased and sold a 10-year Treasury note futures contract and suffered damages from an alleged shortage when PIMCO held both physical and futures positions in 10-year Treasury notes for its client accounts. The two actions have been consolidated into one action, and the two separate complaints have been replaced by a consolidated complaint. PIMCO is a named defendant, and the PIMCO Funds have been added as a defendant, to the consolidated action. PIMCO strongly believes the complaint (and any consolidated complaint filed hereafter) is without merit and intends to vigorously defend itself.
Certain Portfolios of the Trust were recently served in an adversary proceeding brought by the Official Committee of Asbestos Claimants of G-I Holdings, Inc. in G-I Holdings, Inc.’s bankruptcy in the District of New Jersey. PIMCO was previously named in this lawsuit and remains a defendant. The plaintiff seeks to recover for the bankruptcy estate assets that were transferred by the predecessor entity of G-I Holdings, Inc. to a wholly-owned subsidiary in 1994. The subsidiary has since issued notes, of which certain Portfolios of the Trust are alleged to be holders. The complaint alleges that in 2000, more than two hundred noteholders —including certain Portfolios of the Trust—were granted a second priority lien on the assets of the subsidiary in exchange for their consent to a refinancing transaction and the granting of a first priority lien to the lending banks. The plaintiff is seeking invalidation of the lien in favor of the noteholders and/or the value of the lien.
It is possible that these matters and/or other developments resulting from these matters could result in increased fund redemptions or other adverse consequences to the Portfolios. However, PIMCO and AGID believe that these matters are not likely to have a material adverse effect on the Portfolios or on PIMCO’s or AGID’s ability to perform their respective investment advisory or distribution services relating to the Portfolios.

Chairman’s Letter
Dear PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust Shareholder:
It is our pleasure to present to you the semiannual report for the PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust covering the six-month period ended June 30, 2006.
Highlights of the global bond markets during the six-month period included:
| n | | Most fixed-income sectors lost ground during the first half of 2006, as concern about accelerating inflation and central bank tightening pushed interest rates higher worldwide. The benchmark Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index (which includes Treasury, Investment-Grade Corporate, and Residential Mortgage-Backed Securities) returned -0.72% for the first six months of the year. On June 30, the benchmark ten-year Treasury yielded 5.14%, 0.75% higher than at the start of the year. The U.S. yield curve remained flat as shorter-maturity yields rose by a comparable amount. |
| n | | The Federal Reserve tightened four times during the reporting period, bringing the Federal Funds Rate to 5.25%. The increase near the end of the period was the Federal Reserve’s 17th consecutive rate hike since the start of its tightening cycle in 2004. The Federal Reserve was not alone, as central banks in Europe, India, and China tightened credit in unison for the first time since 2000. The Bank of Japan, whose zero-interest-rate policy has flooded global markets with liquidity, looked set to reverse this policy in the coming months. |
In these pages please find a more complete Portfolio review as it relates to financial-market activities, as well as details about total-return investment performance for the six-month reporting period. Thank you for the trust you have placed in us. We will continue to work diligently to meet your investment needs.
Sincerely,

Brent R. Harris
Chairman, PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust

Important Information About the Portfolio
PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust (the “Trust”) is an open-end management investment company currently consisting of nineteen separate investment portfolios, including the CommodityRealReturn Strategy Portfolio (the “Portfolio”). The Portfolio is only available as a funding vehicle under variable life insurance policies or variable annuity contracts issued by insurance companies (“Variable Contracts”). Individuals may not purchase shares of the Portfolio directly. Shares of the Portfolio also may be sold to qualified pension and retirement plans outside of the separate account context.
We believe that bond funds have an important role to play in a well diversified investment portfolio. It is important to note, however, that in an environment where interest rates may trend upward, rising rates would negatively impact the performance of most bond funds, and fixed-income securities held by a fund are likely to decrease in value. The price volatility of fixed-income securities can also increase during periods of rising interest rates resulting in increased losses to a fund. Bond funds and individual bonds with a longer duration (a measure of the expected life of a security) tend to be more sensitive to changes in interest rates, usually making them more volatile than securities or funds with shorter durations. The longer-term performance of most bond funds has benefited from capital gains in part resulting from an extended period of declining interest rates. In the event interest rates increase, these capital gains should not be expected to recur.
The Portfolio may be subject to various risks in addition to those described above. Some of these risks may include, but are not limited to, the following: credit risk, high yield risk, market risk, issuer risk, liquidity risk, derivatives risk, commodity risk, mortgage risk, non-U.S. investment risk, currency risk, issuer non-diversification risk, leveraging risk, management risk, and tax risk. A complete description of these risks is contained in the Portfolio’s prospectus. The Portfolio may use derivative instruments for hedging purposes or as part of an investment strategy. Use of these instruments may involve certain costs and risks such as liquidity risk, interest rate risk, market risk, credit risk, management risk and the risk that the Portfolio could not close out a position when it would be most advantageous to do so. A Portfolio investing in derivatives could lose more than the principal amount invested in these instruments. Investing in non-U.S. securities may entail risk due to non-U.S. economic and political developments; this risk may be increased when investing in emerging markets.
The value of commodity-linked derivative instruments may be affected by changes in overall market movements, changes in interest rates, and other factors such as weather, disease, embargoes, and international economic and political developments, as well as the trading activity of speculators and arbitrageurs in the underlying commodities.
The Portfolio will seek to gain exposure to the commodity markets primarily through investments in leveraged or unleveraged commodity index-linked notes, which are derivative debt instruments with principal and/or coupon payments linked to the value of commodities, commodity futures contracts or the performance of commodity indices. These notes are sometimes referred to as “structured notes” because the terms of these notes may be structured by the issuer and the purchaser of the note. The value of these notes will rise or fall in response to changes in the underlying commodity or related index of investment. These notes expose the Portfolio economically to movements in commodity prices. The Portfolio may also gain exposure to commodity markets by investing in one or more underlying investment vehicles or companies that have substantially similar investment objectives as the Portfolio. Assets not invested in commodity index-linked derivative instruments may be invested in inflation-indexed securities and other fixed income instruments, including derivative fixed income instruments.
One of the requirements for favorable tax treatment as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code is that the Portfolio derive at least 90 percent of its gross income from certain qualifying sources of income. On December 16, 2005, the Internal Revenue Service issued Revenue Ruling 2006-01, which held that income from commodity index-linked swaps would not be qualifying income after June 30, 2006. At the time Revenue Ruling 2006-01 was issued, the Portfolio invested primarily in commodity index-linked swaps to gain exposure to the commodity markets. The effective date of Revenue Ruling 2006-01 was extended to September 30, 2006 by Revenue Ruling 2006-31, after which time the Portfolio’s ability to utilize commodity index-linked swaps as part of its investment strategy will be limited to a maximum of 10 percent of its gross income.
In addition to extending the effective date, Revenue Ruling 2006-31 also clarifies the holding of Revenue Ruling 2006-01 by providing that income from alternative instruments (such as certain commodity index-linked notes) that create commodity exposure may be considered qualifying income under the Internal Revenue Code. In addition, the Internal Revenue Service has also issued private letter rulings to at least two other funds in which the Internal Revenue Service specifically concluded that income from certain commodity index-linked notes is qualifying income. The Portfolio has also obtained an opinion of counsel with respect to the treatment of income from commodity index-linked notes as qualifying income under the Internal Revenue Code. Such an opinion is not binding upon the Internal Revenue Service.
Based on Revenue Ruling 2006-31, Internal Revenue Service guidance and advice of counsel, the Portfolio will seek to gain exposure to the commodity markets primarily through investments in commodity index-linked notes. These notes are subject to risks, such as credit, market and interest rate risks, that in general affect the values of debt securities. In addition, these notes are often leveraged, increasing the volatility of each note’s market value relative to changes in the underlying commodity, commodity futures contract or commodity index. Therefore, at the maturity of the note, the Portfolio may receive more or less principal than it originally invested. The Portfolio may receive interest payments on the note that are more or less than the stated coupon interest payments.
As a result of the Portfolio’s investments in commodity index-linked notes and other commodity-linked derivative instruments, it is possible that a lesser amount of the Portfolio’s assets would be available for investment in inflation-indexed instruments and other fixed income instruments, which could adversely affect the Portfolio’s total return.
The Portfolio is intended for long-term investors and an investment in the Portfolio should be no more than a small part of a typical diversified portfolio. The Portfolio’s share price is expected to be more volatile than that of other funds. The Portfolio may invest in commodity-linked derivative instruments which may subject the Portfolio to greater volatility than investments in traditional securities. The value of commodity-linked derivative instruments may be affected by changes in overall market movements, changes in interest rates, and other factors such as weather, disease, embargoes, and international economic and political developments, as well as the trading activity of speculators and arbitrageurs in the underlying commodities.

On the performance summary page in this Semiannual Report, the Total Return Investment Performance table measures performance assuming that all dividend and capital gain distributions were reinvested.
An investment in the Portfolio is not a deposit of a bank and is not guaranteed or insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. It is possible to lose money on investments in the Portfolio.
PIMCO has adopted written proxy voting policies and procedures (“Proxy Policy”) as required by Rule 206(4)-6 under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940. The Proxy Policy has been adopted by the Trust as the policies and procedures that PIMCO will use when voting proxies on behalf of the Portfolio. Copies of the written Proxy Policy and the factors that PIMCO may consider in determining how to vote proxies for the Portfolio, and information about how the Portfolio voted proxies relating to portfolio securities held during the most recent twelve-month period ended June 30, are available without charge, upon request, by calling the Trust at 1-866-746-2606 and on the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) website at http://www.sec.gov.
The Portfolio files its complete schedule of portfolio holdings with the SEC for the first and third quarters of each fiscal year on Form N-Q. A copy of the Trust’s Form N-Q is available on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov and may be reviewed and copied at the SEC’s Public Reference Room in Washington D.C. Information on the operation of the Public Reference Room may be obtained by calling 1-800-SEC-0330.
PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust is distributed by Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC, 2187 Atlantic Street, Stamford, CT 06902.
The following disclosure provides important information regarding the Portfolio’s Expense Example (“Example” or “Expense Example”), which appears in this Semiannual Report. Please refer to this information when reviewing the Expense Example for the Portfolio.
Example
As a shareholder of the Portfolio, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs and (2) ongoing costs, including advisory and administrative fees; distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees (Administrative Class only); and other Portfolio expenses. The Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Portfolio and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Expense Example does not reflect any fees or other expenses imposed by the Variable Contracts. If it did, the expenses reflected in the Expense Examples would be higher. The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period indicated, which is from January 1, 2006 to June 30, 2006.
Actual Expenses
The information in the table under the heading “Actual Performance” provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in these columns, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.60), then multiply the result by the number in the appropriate column for your share class, in the row titled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The information in the table under the heading “Hypothetical Performance (5% return before expenses)” provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Portfolio’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Portfolio’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Portfolio and other portfolios. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other portfolios.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs. Therefore, the information under the heading “Hypothetical Performance (5% return before expenses)” is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different portfolios. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.
The expense ratio may vary period to period because of various factors, such as an increase in expenses not covered by the advisory and administrative fees (such as expenses of the trustees and their counsel or litigation expense).
Portfolio Benchmark
Dow Jones – AIG Commodity Total Return is an unmanaged index composed of futures contracts on 19 physical commodities. The index is designed to be a highly liquid and diversified benchmark for commodities as an asset class. It is not possible to invest directly in the index.

* Cumulative return.
Past performance is no guarantee of future results. The performance quoted represents past performance. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so the Portfolio shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. The Portfolio’s performance does not reflect the deduction of additional charges and expenses imposed in connection with investing in Variable Contracts, which will reduce returns. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. Performance data current to the most recent month-end is available by calling (800) 927-4648.

Expense Example | | | | Actual Performance | | | | Hypothetical Performance |
| | | | | | | | (5% return before expenses) |
Beginning Account Value (1/01/06) | | | | $ | 1,000.00 | | | | $ | 1,000.00 |
Ending Account Value (06/30/06) | | | | $ | 995.50 | | | | $ | 1,020.38 |
Expenses Paid During Period† | | | | $ | 4.40 | | | | $ | 4.46 |
† Expenses are equal to the Portfolio’s Administrative Class annualized expense ratio of 0.89%, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 181/365 (to reflect the one-half year period). Overall fees and expenses of investing in the Portfolio will be higher because the example does not reflect Variable Contract fees and expenses.
Please refer to page 3 herein for a description of the Portfolio’s benchmark and an explanation of the information presented in the above Expense Example.
Portfolio Insights
» | | The PIMCO CommodityRealReturn Strategy Portfolio seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing under normal circumstances in commodity-linked derivative instruments backed by a portfolio of inflation-indexed securities and other Fixed-Income Instruments. |
» | | Commodities rallied for the six-month period of December 31, 2005 to June 30, 2006, driven in part by surging gasoline prices resulting from concerns over supply disruptions to the U.S. gasoline market amid strong demand. Also benefiting commodities was continued strong global economic growth, which boosted demand and prices alike for industrial metals. |
» | | The Portfolio invested the collateral backing its commodity derivatives positions primarily in Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities (“TIPS”), implementing a “double real®” strategy. For the six-month period ending June 30, 2006, this was negative for performance, as TIPS performance was negative. |
» | | The Portfolio’s below benchmark TIPS duration added to performance as real yields rose on strong U.S. economic growth. The effective duration of the Portfolio was 6.86 years on June 30, 2006 compared to a duration of 6.11 years for the benchmark. |
» | | The Portfolio’s emphasis on U.S. nominal bonds was negative for performance, as nominal yields rose faster than real yields on higher inflation expectations and the outlook for further Federal Reserve tightening. |
» | | Positions in short maturity U.S. nominal bonds for the period detracted significantly from performance due to a substantial flattening of the nominal yield curve. |
» | | Currency exposure added to performance resulting from a depreciation of the U.S. dollar relative to the Euro and Japanese Yen. |
» | | Mortgage holdings during the period were positive due to favorable coupon selection, particularly 15-year FNMA 5.0% and 30-year FNMA 5.5% coupons, which outperformed the broader Index. |

Notes to Financial Statements | | June 30, 2006 (Unaudited) |
1. ORGANIZATION
The CommodityRealReturn Strategy Portfolio (the “Portfolio”) is a series of the PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust (the “Trust”). The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “Act”), as amended, as an open-end investment management company organized as a Delaware business trust on October 3, 1997. The Portfolio may offer up to two classes of shares: Administrative and Advisor. Information presented in these financial statements pertains to the Administrative Class of the Portfolio. Certain detailed financial information for the Advisor Class is provided separately and is available upon request. The Trust is designed to be used as an investment vehicle by Separate Accounts of insurance companies that fund variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies and by qualified pension and retirement plans.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Trust in the preparation of its financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Security Valuation. Portfolio securities are valued as of the close of regular trading (normally 4:00 p.m., Eastern Time) on each day that the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) is open. Portfolio securities and other assets for which market quotes are readily available are stated at market value. Market value is generally determined on the basis of last reported sales prices, or if no sales are reported, based on quotes obtained from a quotation reporting system, established market makers, or pricing services. Fixed-income securities and non-exchange traded derivatives are normally valued on the basis of quotes obtained from brokers and dealers or pricing services. Prices obtained from independent pricing services use information provided by market makers or estimates of market values obtained from yield data relating to investments or securities with similar characteristics. Certain fixed-income securities purchased on a delayed-delivery basis are marked to market daily until settlement at the forward settlement date. Short-term investments having a maturity of 60 days or less are generally valued at amortized cost. Exchange traded options, futures and options on futures are valued at the settlement price determined by the relevant exchange.
Investments initially valued in currencies other than the U.S. dollar are converted to the U.S. dollar using exchange rates obtained from pricing services. As a result, the NAV of the Portfolio’s shares may be affected by changes in the value of currencies in relation to the U.S. dollar. The value of securities traded in markets outside the United States or denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar may be affected significantly on a day that the NYSE is closed and an investor is not able to purchase, redeem or exchange shares.
Securities and other assets for which market quotes are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction. The Board of Trustees has adopted methods for valuing securities and other assets in circumstances where market quotes are not readily available, and has delegated to Pacific Investment Management Company LLC (“PIMCO”) the responsibility for applying the valuation methods. In the event that market quotes are not readily available, and the security or asset cannot be valued pursuant to one of the valuation methods, the value of the security or asset will be determined in good faith by the Valuation Committee of the Board of Trustees, generally based upon recommendations provided by PIMCO. Market quotes are considered not readily available in circumstances where there is an absence of current or reliable market-based data (e.g., trade information, bid/asked information, broker quotes), including where events occur after the close of the relevant market, but prior to the close of regular trading, that materially affect the values of the Portfolio’s securities or assets. In addition, market quotes are considered not readily available when, due to extraordinary circumstances, the exchanges or markets on which the securities trade do not open for trading for the entire day and no other market prices are available. The Board has delegated to PIMCO the responsibility for monitoring significant events that may materially affect the values of the Portfolio’s securities or assets and for determining whether the value of the applicable securities or assets should be re-evaluated in light of such significant events.
When the Portfolio uses fair value pricing to determine its NAV, securities will not be priced on the basis of quotations from the primary market in which they are traded, but rather may be priced by another method that the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction believe accurately reflects fair value. The Trust’s policy is intended to result in a calculation of the Portfolio’s NAV that fairly reflects security values as of the time of pricing. However, fair values determined by the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction may not accurately reflect the price that the Portfolio could obtain for a security if it were to dispose of that security as of the time of pricing. Because foreign securities can trade on non-business days, the NAV of the Portfolio may change on days when shareholders will not be able to purchase or redeem fund shares. The prices used by the Portfolio may differ from the value that would be realized if the securities were sold and the differences could be material to the financial statements.
Securities Transactions and Investment Income. Securities transactions are recorded as of the trade date. Securities purchased or sold on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis may be settled a month or more after the trade date. Realized gains and losses from securities sold are recorded on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Portfolio is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, adjusted for the accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis. Paydown gains and losses on mortgage-related or asset-backed securities are recorded as components of interest income in the Statement of Operations.
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends from net investment income, if any, are declared and distributed to shareholders quarterly. Net realized capital gains earned by the Portfolio, if any, will be distributed no less frequently than once each year. Most shareholders choose to reinvest their dividends and capital gain distribution in additional shares of the Portfolio.
Income dividends and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP. Differences between tax regulations and GAAP may change the fiscal year when income and capital items are recognized for tax and GAAP purposes. Examples of events that give rise to timing differences include wash sales, straddles, net operating losses and capital loss carryforwards. Further, the character of investment income and capital gains may be different for certain transactions under the two methods of accounting. Examples of characterization differences include the treatment of mortgage paydowns, swaps, foreign currency transactions and contingent debt instruments. As a result, income dividends and capital gain distributions declared during a fiscal period may differ significantly from the net investment income and realized capital gain reported in the Portfolio’s annual financial statements presented under GAAP.
Distributions classified as a tax basis return of capital, if any, are reflected in the accompanying Statements of Changes in Net Assets and have been reclassified to paid in capital. In addition, other amounts have been reclassified between
| | | | | | |
| | Semiannual Report | | June 30, 2006 | | 13 |
Notes to Financial Statements (Cont.)
undistributed net investment income, accumulated undistributed net realized gains or losses and/or paid in capital to more appropriately conform financial accounting to tax characterizations of dividend distributions.
Multiclass Operations. Each class offered by the Portfolio has equal rights as to assets and voting privileges (except that shareholders of a class have exclusive voting rights regarding any matter relating solely to that class of shares). Income and non-class specific expenses of the Portfolio are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative value of settled shares. Realized and unrealized capital gains and losses of the Portfolio are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative net assets of each class. Class specific expenses, where applicable, currently include administrative, distribution and servicing fees.
Delayed-Delivery Transactions. The Portfolio may purchase or sell securities on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis. These transactions involve a commitment by the Portfolio to purchase or sell securities for a predetermined price or yield, with payment and delivery taking place beyond the customary settlement period. When delayed-delivery purchases are outstanding, the Portfolio will designate liquid assets in an amount sufficient to meet the purchase price. When purchasing a security on a delayed-delivery basis, the Portfolio assumes the rights and risks of ownership of the security, including the risk of price and yield fluctuations, and takes such fluctuations into account when determining its net asset value. The Portfolio may dispose of or renegotiate a delayed-delivery transaction after it is entered into, and may sell when-issued securities before they are delivered, which may result in a capital gain or loss. When the Portfolio has sold a security on a delayed-delivery basis, the Portfolio does not participate in future gains and losses with respect to the security.
Federal Income Taxes. The Portfolio intends to qualify as a regulated investment company under sub-chapter M of the Internal Revenue Code and distribute all of its taxable income and net realized gains, if applicable, to shareholders. Accordingly, no provision for Federal income taxes has been made.
The Portfolio may gain exposure to the commodities markets by entering into swap agreements on a commodities index, and may invest in other commodity-linked derivative instruments, including commodity swap agreements, options, futures contracts, options on futures contracts and commodity-linked structured notes.
One of the requirements for favorable tax treatment as a regulated investment company under the Code is that the Portfolio derive at least 90 percent of its gross income from certain qualifying sources of income. On December 16, 2005, the IRS issued Revenue Ruling 2006-01 which held that income from commodity index-linked swaps was not qualifying income. At the time Revenue Ruling 2006-01 was issued, the Portfolio invested primarily in commodity index-linked swaps to gain exposure to the commodity markets. Revenue Ruling 2006-01 provided an effective date of June 30, 2006, after which time the Portfolio’s ability to utilize commodity index-linked swaps as part of its investment strategy will be limited to a maximum of 10 percent of its gross income.
On June 2, 2006, the IRS issued Revenue Ruling 2006-31 which extends the effective date for Revenue Ruling 2006-01 from June 30, 2006 until September 30, 2006. Revenue Ruling 2006-31 also clarifies the holding of Revenue Ruling 2006-01 by providing that income from alternative instruments (such as certain commodity index-linked notes) that create commodity exposure may be considered qualifying income under the Code. In addition, the IRS has also issued private letter rulings to at least two other funds in which the IRS specifically concluded that income from certain commodity index-linked notes is qualifying income. The Portfolio has also obtained an opinion of counsel with respect to the treatment of income from commodity index-linked notes as qualifying income under the Code. Such an opinion is not binding upon the IRS.
Based on Revenue Ruling 2006-31, IRS guidance and advice of counsel, the Portfolio will seek to gain exposure to the commodity markets primarily through investments in commodity index-linked notes. The use of commodity index-linked notes involves specific risks. The Portfolio will continue to seek ways to make use of other commodity-linked derivative instruments, including swap agreements, commodity options, futures and options on futures, and alternative structures within the Portfolio to gain exposure to commodity markets. Please refer to the prospectus for the Separate Account and Variable Contract for information regarding federal income tax treatment of distributions to the Separate Account.
Foreign Currency. The accounting records of the Portfolio are maintained in U.S. dollar. The market values of foreign securities, currency holdings and other assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollar based on the current exchange rates each business day. Fluctuations in the value of currency holdings and other assets and liabilities resulting from changes in exchange rates are recorded as unrealized foreign currency gains or losses. Realized gains or losses and unrealized appreciation or depreciation on investment securities and income and expenses are translated on the respective dates of such transactions. The effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on investments in securities are not segregated in the Statement of Operations from the effects of changes in market prices of those securities, but are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss on investment securities.

Non-U.S. currency symbols utilized throughout the report are defined as follows: |
EUR | | Euro | | | | |
GBP | | British Pound | | | | |
JPY | | Japanese Yen | | | | |
Forward Currency Transactions. The Portfolio may enter into forward currency contracts in connection with settling planned purchases or sales of securities, to hedge the currency exposure associated with some or all of the Portfolio’s securities or as a part of an investment strategy. A forward currency contract is an agreement between two parties to buy and sell a currency at a set price on a future date. The market value of a forward currency contract fluctuates with changes in forward currency exchange rates. Forward currency contracts are marked to market daily and the change in value is recorded by the Portfolio as an unrealized gain or loss. Realized gains or losses equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed are recorded upon delivery or receipt of the currency or, if a forward currency contract is offset by entering into another forward currency contract with the same broker, upon settlement of the net gain or loss. These contracts may involve market risk in excess of the unrealized gain or loss reflected in the Portfolio’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities. In addition, the Portfolio could be exposed to risk if the counterparties are unable to meet the terms of the contracts or if the value of the currency changes unfavorably to the U.S. dollar.
Futures Contracts. The Portfolio is authorized to enter into futures contracts. The Portfolio may use futures contracts to manage its exposure to the securities markets or to movements in interest rates and currency values. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are the imperfect correlation between the change in market value of the securities held by the Portfolio and the prices of futures contracts, the possibility of an illiquid market, and the inability of the counterparty to meet the terms of the contract. Futures contracts are valued based upon their quoted daily settlement prices. Upon entering into a futures contract, the Portfolio is required to deposit with its custodian, in a segregated account in the name of the futures broker, an amount of cash or U.S. Government and Agency Obligations in accordance with the initial margin requirements of the broker or exchange. Futures contracts are marked to market daily and an appropriate payable or receivable for the change in value (“variation margin”) is recorded by the Portfolio. Gains or losses are recognized but not considered realized until the

| | June 30, 2006 (Unaudited) |
contracts expire or are closed. Futures contracts involve, to varying degrees, risk of loss in excess of the variation margin disclosed in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
Guarantees and Indemnifications. Under the Trust’s organizational documents, each Trustee, officer, employee or other agent of the Trust (including the Trust’s investment manager) is indemnified against certain liabilities that may arise out of performance of their duties to the Portfolio. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Portfolio enters into contracts that contain a variety of indemnification clauses. The Portfolio’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Portfolio that have not yet occurred. However, the Portfolio has not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts, and believes the risk of loss to be remote.
Inflation-Indexed Bonds. The Portfolio may invest in inflation-indexed bonds. Inflation-indexed bonds are fixed-income securities whose principal value is periodically adjusted to the rate of inflation. The interest rate on these bonds is generally fixed at issuance at a rate lower than typical bonds. Over the life of an inflation-indexed bond, however, interest will be paid based on a principal value, which is adjusted for inflation. Any increase in the principal amount of an inflation-indexed bond will be included as interest income in the Statement of Operations, even though investors do not receive their principal until maturity.
Options Contracts. The Portfolio may write call and put options on futures, swaps, securities or currencies it owns or in which it may invest. Writing put options tends to increase the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. Writing call options tends to decrease the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. When the Portfolio writes a call or put option, an amount equal to the premium received is recorded as a liability and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the option written. These liabilities are reflected as written options outstanding in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Certain options may be written with premiums to determined on a future date. The premiums for these options are based upon implied volatility parameters at specified terms. Premiums received from writing options which expire are treated as realized gains. Premiums received from writing options which are exercised or closed are added to the proceeds or offset against amounts paid on the underlying future, swap, security or currency transaction to determine the realized gain or loss. The Portfolio as a writer of an option has no control over whether the underlying future, swap, security or currency may be sold (call) or purchased (put) and as a result bears the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the future, swap, security or currency underlying the written option. There is the risk the Portfolio may not be able to enter into a closing transaction because of an illiquid market.
The Portfolio may also purchase put and call options. Purchasing call options tends to increase the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. Purchasing put options tends to decrease the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. The Portfolio pays a premium which is included in the Portfolio’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an investment and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the option. Premiums paid for purchasing options which expire are treated as realized losses. Certain options may be purchased with premiums to be determined on a future date. The premiums for these options are based upon implied volatility parameters at specified terms. The risk associated with purchasing put and call options is limited to the premium paid. Premiums paid for purchasing options which are exercised or closed are added to the amounts paid or offset against the proceeds on the underlying future, swap, security or currency transaction to determine the realized gain or loss.
Repurchase Agreements. The Portfolio may engage in repurchase transactions. Under the terms of a typical repurchase agreement, the Portfolio takes possession of an underlying debt obligation subject to an obligation of the seller to repurchase, and the Portfolio to resell, the obligation at an agreed-upon price and time. The market value of the collateral must be equal to or exceed at all times the total amount of the repurchase obligations, including interest. Securities purchased under repurchase agreements are reflected as an asset in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Generally, in the event of counterparty default, the Portfolio has the right to use the collateral to offset losses incurred. If the counterparty should default, the Portfolio will seek to sell the securities which it holds as collateral. This could involve procedural costs or delays in addition to a loss on the securities if their value should fall below their repurchase price.
Mortgage-Related and Other Asset-Backed Securities. The Portfolio may invest in mortgage-related or other asset-backed securities. These securities include mortgage pass-through securities, collateralized mortgage obligations (“CMOs”), commercial mortgage-backed securities, mortgage dollar rolls, CMO residuals, stripped mortgage-backed securities (“SMBSs”) and other securities that directly or indirectly represent a participation in, or are secured by and payable from, mortgage loans on real property. The value of some mortgage- or asset-backed securities may be particularly sensitive to changes in prevailing interest rates. Early repayment of principal on some mortgage-related securities may expose the Portfolio to a lower rate of return upon reinvestment of principal. The value of these securities may fluctuate in response to the market’s perception of the creditworthiness of the issuers. Additionally, although mortgages and mortgage-related securities are generally supported by some form of government or private guarantee and/or insurance, there is no assurance that private guarantors or insurers will meet their obligations.
Swap Agreements. The Portfolio may engage in swap transactions, including, but not limited to, swap agreements on interest rate, total return and credit default to manage its exposure to interest rates and credit risk. In connection with these agreements, securities may be identified as collateral in accordance with the terms of the respective swap agreements.
Interest rate swap agreements involve the exchange by the Portfolio with another party of their respective commitments to pay or receive interest, e.g., an exchange of floating rate payments for fixed rate payments with respect to the notional amount of principal.
Credit default swap agreements involve one party making a stream of payments to another party in exchange for the right to receive a specified return in the event of a default by a third party, typically corporate issues or sovereign issues of an emerging country, on its obligation. The Portfolio may use credit default swaps to provide a measure of protection against defaults of the issuers (i.e., to reduce risk where the Portfolio owns or has exposure to the sovereign issuer) or to take an active long or short position with respect to the likelihood of a particular issuer’s default. As a seller of protection, the Portfolio generally receives an upfront payment or a fixed rate of income throughout the term of the swap provided that there is no credit event. If the Portfolio is a seller of protection and a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement, the Portfolio will pay to the buyer of the protection an amount up to the notional value of the swap and in certain instances take delivery of the security. As the seller, the Portfolio would effectively add leverage to its portfolio because, in addition to its total net assets, the Portfolio would be subject to investment exposure on the notional amount of the swap. As a buyer of protection, the Portfolio generally receives an amount up to the notional value of the swap if a credit event occurs. The treatment of a credit default swaps and other swap agreements that provide for contingent, non-periodic, bullet-type payments as “notional principal contracts” for federal income tax purposes is uncertain. Were the Internal Revenue Service in take the position that a credit default swap or other bullet-type swap is not a “notional principal contract” for federal income tax purposes, payments received by the Portfolio from such investments might be subject to income taxes.

Notes to Financial Statements (Cont.)
Swaps are marked to market daily based upon quotations from market makers and the change in value, if any, is recorded as unrealized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Payments received or made at the beginning of the measurement period are reflected as such in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. These upfront payments are recorded as realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations upon termination or maturity of the swap. A liquidation payment received or made at the termination of the swap is recorded as realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Net periodic payments received or paid by the Portfolio are included as part of realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Entering into these agreements involves, to varying degrees, elements of credit, market and documentation risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Such risks involve the possibility that there will be no liquid market for these agreements, that the counterparty to the agreements may default on its obligation to perform or disagree as to the meaning of contractual terms in the agreements and that there may be unfavorable changes in interest rates.
Commodities Linked/Structured Notes. The Portfolio invests in structured notes whose value is based on the price movements of a commodity index. The structured notes are often leveraged, increasing the volatility of each note’s value relative to the change in the underlying linked financial element. The value of these notes will rise and fall in response to changes in the underlying commodity index. Structured securities may entail a greater degree of market risk than other types of debt securities because the investor bears the risk of the underlying commodity index. Structured notes may also be more volatile, less liquid, and more difficult to accurately price than less complex securities or more traditional debt securities. Fluctuations in value of the structured notes are recorded as unrealized gains and losses in the accompanying financial statements. Net payments are recorded as net realized gains/losses. These notes are subject to prepayment, credit and interest risks. The Portfolio has the option to request prepayment from the issuer. At maturity, or when a note is sold, the Portfolio records a realized gain or loss. At June 30, 2006, the value of these securities comprised 34.2% of the Portfolio’s net assets and resulted in unrealized appreciation of $2,703.
U.S. Government Agencies or Government-Sponsored Enterprises. Securities issued by U.S. Government agencies or government-sponsored enterprises may not be guaranteed by the U.S. Treasury. The Government National Mortgage Association (“GNMA”), a wholly owned U.S. Government corporation, is authorized to guarantee, with the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government, the timely payment of principal and interest on securities issued by institutions approved by GNMA and backed by pools of mortgages insured by the Federal Housing Administration or guaranteed by the Department of Veterans Affairs. Government-related guarantors (i.e., not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government) include the Federal National Mortgage Association (“FNMA” or “Fannie Mae”) and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“FHLMC” or “Freddie Mac”). Pass-through securities issued by FNMA are guaranteed as to timely payment of principal and interest by FNMA but are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government. FHLMC guarantees the timely payment of interest and ultimate collection of principal, but its participation certificates are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government.
New Accounting Policies. In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes—an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (the “Interpretation”). The Interpretation is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. Management is currently evaluating the application of the Interpretation to the Portfolio and will provide additional information in relation to the Interpretation in the Portfolio’s annual financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2006.
3. FEES, EXPENSES, AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Investment Advisory Fee. PIMCO is a majority-owned subsidiary of Allianz Global Investors of America L.P. (“AGI”) and serves as investment adviser (the “Adviser”) to the Trust, pursuant to an investment advisory contract. The Adviser receives a monthly fee at an annual rate based on average daily net assets of the Portfolio. The Advisory Fee is charged at an annual rate of 0.49%.
Administration Fee. PIMCO serves as administrator (the “Administrator”), and provides administrative services to the Trust for which it receives a monthly administrative fee based on average daily net assets of the Portfolio. As the Administrator, PIMCO bears the costs of various third-party services, including audit, custodial, portfolio accounting, legal, transfer agency and printing costs. The Administration Fee is charged at the annual rate of 0.25%.
Distribution and Servicing Fees. Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC (“AGID”) is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of AGI and serves as the distributor of the Trust’s shares. The Trust is permitted to reimburse AGID on a quarterly basis, out of the Administrative Class assets of the Portfolio in the amount of 0.15% on an annual basis of the average daily net assets of that class, for payments made to financial intermediaries that provide services in connection with the distribution of shares or administration of plans or programs that use Portfolio shares as their funding medium. The effective rate paid to AGID was 0.15% during the current fiscal year.
Expenses. The Trust is responsible for the following expenses: (i) salaries and other compensation of any of the Trust’s executive officers and employees who are not officers, directors, stockholders or employees of PIMCO or its subsidiaries or affiliates; (ii) taxes and governmental fees; (iii) brokerage fees and commissions and other portfolio transaction expenses; (iv) the costs of borrowing money, including interest expenses and bank overdraft charges; (v) fees and expenses of the Trustees who are not “interested persons” of PIMCO or the Trust, and any counsel retained exclusively for their benefit; (vi) extraordinary expenses, including costs of litigation and indemnification expenses; (vii) organization expenses and (viii) any expenses allocated or allocable to a specific class of shares, which include service fees payable with respect to the Administrative Class shares and may include certain other expenses as permitted by the Trust’s Multiple Class Plan adopted pursuant to Rule 18f-3 under the Act and subject to review and approval by the Trustees. The ratio of expenses to average net assets per share class, as disclosed in the Financial Highlights, may differ from the annual portfolio operating expenses per share class as disclosed in the Prospectus for the reasons set forth above.
PIMCO has agreed to waive a portion of its administrative fees to the extent that the payment of the Portfolio’s pro rata share of organization expenses and Trustee fees cause the actual expense ratio to rise above the rates disclosed in the then-current prospectus plus 0.49 basis points as set forth below (calculated as a percentage of the Portfolio’s average daily net assets attributable to each class):
| | | |
Administrative Class | | 0.89 | % |
PIMCO may be reimbursed for these waived amounts in future periods, not to exceed thirty-six months.

For the current period ended June 30, 2006, each unaffiliated Trustee received an annual retainer of $15,000, plus $2,000 for each Board of Trustees quarterly meeting attended, $500 for each Board of Trustees committee meeting attended and $500 for each special board meeting attended, plus reimbursement of related expenses. In addition, each Committee Chair received an additional annual retainer of $500 and each Audit Committee Chair received an additional annual retainer of $1,500. These expenses are allocated on a pro-rata basis to each Portfolio of the Trust according to its respective net assets. The Trust pays no compensation directly to any Trustee or any other officer who is affiliated with the Administrator, all of whom receive remuneration for their services to the Trust from the Administrator or its affiliates.
4. PURCHASES AND SALES OF SECURITIES
The length of time the Portfolio has held a particular security is not generally a consideration in investment decisions. A change in the securities held by the Portfolio is known as “portfolio turnover”. The Portfolio may engage in frequent and active trading of portfolio securities to achieve its investment objective, particularly during periods of volatile market movements. High portfolio turnover (e.g., over 100%) involves correspondingly greater expenses to the Portfolio, including brokerage commissions or dealer mark-ups and other transaction costs on the sale of securities and reinvestments in other securities. Such sales may also result in realization of taxable capital gains, including short-term capital gains (which are generally taxed at ordinary income tax rates). The trading costs and tax effects associated with portfolio turnover may adversely affect the Portfolio’s performance.
Purchases and sales of securities (excluding short-term investments) for the period ended June 30, 2006 were as follows (amounts in thousands):

8. REGULATORY AND LITIGATION MATTERS
On June 1, 2004, the Attorney General of the State of New Jersey announced that it had dismissed PIMCO from a complaint filed by the New Jersey Attorney General on February 17, 2004, and that it had entered into a settlement agreement (the “New Jersey Settlement”) with Allianz Global Investors of America L.P. (“AGI”) (formerly known as Allianz Dresdner Asset Management of America L.P.), PEA Capital LLC (an entity affiliated with PIMCO through common ownership) (“PEA”) and Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC (“AGID”), in connection with the same matter. In the New Jersey Settlement, AGI, PEA and AGID neither admitted nor denied the allegations or conclusions of law, but did agree to pay New Jersey a civil fine of $15 million and $3 million for investigative costs and further potential enforcement initiatives against unrelated parties. They also undertook to implement certain governance changes. The complaint relating to the New Jersey Settlement alleged, among other things, that AGI, PEA and AGID had failed to disclose that they improperly allowed certain hedge funds to engage in “market timing” in certain funds. The complaint sought injunctive relief, civil monetary penalties, restitution and disgorgement of profits.

Notes to Financial Statements (Cont.) | | June 30, 2006 (Unaudited) |
Since February 2004, PIMCO, AGI, PEA, AGID, and certain of their affiliates, including the PIMCO Funds, the Allianz Funds (formerly known as PIMCO Funds: Multi-Manager Series), and the Trustees and employees of the PIMCO Funds, have been named as defendants in fifteen lawsuits filed in various jurisdictions. Eleven of those lawsuits concern “market timing,” and they have been transferred to and consolidated for pre-trial proceedings in a multi-district litigation proceeding in the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland; the other four lawsuits concern “revenue sharing” and have been consolidated into a single action in the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut. The lawsuits have been commenced as putative class actions on behalf of investors who purchased, held or redeemed shares of the various series of the PIMCO Funds and the Allianz Funds during specified periods, or as derivative actions on behalf of the PIMCO Funds and Allianz Funds.
The market timing actions in the District of Maryland generally allege that certain hedge funds were allowed to engage in “market timing” in certain of the PIMCO Funds and the Allianz Funds and this alleged activity was not disclosed. Pursuant to tolling agreements entered into with the derivative and class action plaintiffs, PIMCO, the Trustees, and certain employees of PIMCO who were previously named as defendants have all been dropped as defendants in the market timing actions; the plaintiffs continue to assert claims on behalf of the shareholders of the PIMCO Funds or on behalf of the PIMCO Funds themselves against other defendants. By order dated November 3, 2005, the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland granted the PIMCO Funds’ motion to dismiss claims asserted against it in a consolidated amended complaint where the PIMCO Funds were named, in the complaint, as a nominal defendant. The revenue sharing action in the District of Connecticut generally alleges that fund assets were inappropriately used to pay brokers to promote the PIMCO Funds and Allianz Funds including directing fund brokerage transactions to such brokers, and that such alleged arrangements were not fully disclosed to shareholders. On August 11, 2005 the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut conducted a hearing on defendants’ motion to dismiss the consolidated amended complaint in the revenue sharing action but has not yet ruled on the motion to dismiss. The market timing and revenue sharing lawsuits seek, among other things, unspecified compensatory damages plus interest and, in some cases, punitive damages, the rescission of investment advisory contracts, the return of fees paid under those contracts and restitution.
Under Section 9(a) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“1940 Act”), if the New Jersey Settlement or any of the lawsuits described above were to result in a court injunction against AGI, PEA, AGID and/or their affiliates, PIMCO could, in the absence of exemptive relief granted by the SEC, be barred from serving as an investment adviser, and AGID could be barred from serving as principal underwriter, to any registered investment company, including the Portfolios of the Trust. In connection with an inquiry from the SEC concerning the status of the New Jersey Settlement under Section 9(a), PEA, AGID, AGI and certain of their affiliates (including PIMCO) (together, the “Applicants”) have sought exemptive relief from the SEC under Section 9(c) of the 1940 Act. The SEC has granted the Applicants a temporary exemption from the provisions of Section 9(a) with respect to the New Jersey Settlement until the earlier of (i) September 13, 2006 and (ii) the date on which the SEC takes final action on their application for a permanent order. There is no assurance that the SEC will issue a permanent order.
Two nearly identical class action civil complaints have been filed in August 2005, in the Northern District of Illinois Eastern Division alleging that the plaintiffs each purchased and sold a 10-year Treasury note futures contract and suffered damages from an alleged shortage when PIMCO held both physical and futures positions in 10-year Treasury notes for its client accounts. The two actions have been consolidated into one action, and the two separate complaints have been replaced by a consolidated complaint. PIMCO is a named defendant, and the PIMCO Funds have been added as a defendant, to the consolidated action. PIMCO strongly believes the complaint (and any consolidated complaint filed hereafter) is without merit and intends to vigorously defend itself.
Certain Portfolios of the Trust were recently served in an adversary proceeding brought by the Official Committee of Asbestos Claimants of G-I Holdings, Inc. in G-I Holdings, Inc.’s bankruptcy in the District of New Jersey. PIMCO was previously named in this lawsuit and remains a defendant. The plaintiff seeks to recover for the bankruptcy estate assets that were transferred by the predecessor entity of G-I Holdings, Inc. to a wholly-owned subsidiary in 1994. The subsidiary has since issued notes, of which certain Portfolios of the Trust are alleged to be holders. The complaint alleges that in 2000, more than two hundred noteholders—including certain Portfolios of the Trust—were granted a second priority lien on the assets of the subsidiary in exchange for their consent to a refinancing transaction and the granting of a first priority lien to the lending banks. The plaintiff is seeking invalidation of the lien in favor of the noteholders and/or the value of the lien.
It is possible that these matters and/or other developments resulting from these matters could result in increased fund redemptions or other adverse consequences to the Portfolios. However, PIMCO and AGID believe that these matters are not likely to have a material adverse effect on the Portfolios or on PIMCO’s or AGID’s ability to perform their respective investment advisory or distribution services relating to the Portfolios.

Chairman’s Letter
Dear PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust Shareholder:
It is our pleasure to present to you the semiannual report for the PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust covering the six-month period ended June 30, 2006.
Highlights of the global bond markets during the six-month period included:
| n | | Most fixed-income sectors lost ground during the first half of 2006, as concern about accelerating inflation and central bank tightening pushed interest rates higher worldwide. The benchmark Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index (which includes Treasury, Investment-Grade Corporate, and Residential Mortgage-Backed Securities) returned -0.72% for the first six months of the year. On June 30, the benchmark ten-year Treasury yielded 5.14%, 0.75% higher than at the start of the year. The U.S. yield curve remained flat as shorter-maturity yields rose by a comparable amount. |
| n | | The Federal Reserve tightened four times during the reporting period, bringing the Federal Funds Rate to 5.25%. The increase near the end of the period was the Federal Reserve’s 17th consecutive rate hike since the start of its tightening cycle in 2004. The Federal Reserve was not alone, as central banks in Europe, India, and China tightened credit in unison for the first time since 2000. The Bank of Japan, whose zero-interest-rate policy has flooded global markets with liquidity, looked set to reverse this policy in the coming months. |
In these pages please find a more complete Portfolio review as it relates to financial-market activities, as well as details about total-return investment performance for the six-month reporting period. Thank you for the trust you have placed in us. We will continue to work diligently to meet your investment needs.
Sincerely,

Brent R. Harris
Chairman, PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust

Important Information About the Portfolio
PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust (the “Trust”) is an open-end management investment company currently consisting of nineteen separate investment portfolios, including the CommodityRealReturn Strategy Portfolio (the “Portfolio”). The Portfolio is only available as a funding vehicle under variable life insurance policies or variable annuity contracts issued by insurance companies (“Variable Contracts”). Individuals may not purchase shares of the Portfolio directly. Shares of the Portfolio also may be sold to qualified pension and retirement plans outside of the separate account context.
We believe that bond funds have an important role to play in a well diversified investment portfolio. It is important to note, however, that in an environment where interest rates may trend upward, rising rates would negatively impact the performance of most bond funds, and fixed-income securities held by a fund are likely to decrease in value. The price volatility of fixed-income securities can also increase during periods of rising interest rates resulting in increased losses to a fund. Bond funds and individual bonds with a longer duration (a measure of the expected life of a security) tend to be more sensitive to changes in interest rates, usually making them more volatile than securities or funds with shorter durations. The longer-term performance of most bond funds has benefited from capital gains in part resulting from an extended period of declining interest rates. In the event interest rates increase, these capital gains should not be expected to recur.
The Portfolio may be subject to various risks in addition to those described above. Some of these risks may include, but are not limited to, the following: credit risk, high yield risk, market risk, issuer risk, liquidity risk, derivatives risk, commodity risk, mortgage risk, non-U.S. investment risk, currency risk, issuer non-diversification risk, leveraging risk, management risk, and tax risk. A complete description of these risks is contained in the Portfolio’s prospectus. The Portfolio may use derivative instruments for hedging purposes or as part of an investment strategy. Use of these instruments may involve certain costs and risks such as liquidity risk, interest rate risk, market risk, credit risk, management risk and the risk that the Portfolio could not close out a position when it would be most advantageous to do so. A Portfolio investing in derivatives could lose more than the principal amount invested in these instruments. Investing in non-U.S. securities may entail risk due to non-U.S. economic and political developments; this risk may be increased when investing in emerging markets.
The value of commodity-linked derivative instruments may be affected by changes in overall market movements, changes in interest rates, and other factors such as weather, disease, embargoes, and international economic and political developments, as well as the trading activity of speculators and arbitrageurs in the underlying commodities.
The Portfolio will seek to gain exposure to the commodity markets primarily through investments in leveraged or unleveraged commodity index-linked notes, which are derivative debt instruments with principal and/or coupon payments linked to the value of commodities, commodity futures contracts or the performance of commodity indices. These notes are sometimes referred to as “structured notes” because the terms of these notes may be structured by the issuer and the purchaser of the note. The value of these notes will rise or fall in response to changes in the underlying commodity or related index of investment. These notes expose the Portfolio economically to movements in commodity prices. The Portfolio may also gain exposure to commodity markets by investing in one or more underlying investment vehicles or companies that have substantially similar investment objectives as the Portfolio. Assets not invested in commodity index-linked derivative instruments may be invested in inflation-indexed securities and other fixed income instruments, including derivative fixed income instruments.
One of the requirements for favorable tax treatment as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code is that the Portfolio derive at least 90 percent of its gross income from certain qualifying sources of income. On December 16, 2005, the Internal Revenue Service issued Revenue Ruling 2006-01, which held that income from commodity index-linked swaps would not be qualifying income after June 30, 2006. At the time Revenue Ruling 2006-01 was issued, the Portfolio invested primarily in commodity index-linked swaps to gain exposure to the commodity markets. The effective date of Revenue Ruling 2006-01 was extended to September 30, 2006 by Revenue Ruling 2006-31, after which time the Portfolio’s ability to utilize commodity index-linked swaps as part of its investment strategy will be limited to a maximum of 10 percent of its gross income.
In addition to extending the effective date, Revenue Ruling 2006-31 also clarifies the holding of Revenue Ruling 2006-01 by providing that income from alternative instruments (such as certain commodity index-linked notes) that create commodity exposure may be considered qualifying income under the Internal Revenue Code. In addition, the Internal Revenue Service has also issued private letter rulings to at least two other funds in which the Internal Revenue Service specifically concluded that income from certain commodity index-linked notes is qualifying income. The Portfolio has also obtained an opinion of counsel with respect to the treatment of income from commodity index-linked notes as qualifying income under the Internal Revenue Code. Such an opinion is not binding upon the Internal Revenue Service.
Based on Revenue Ruling 2006-31, Internal Revenue Service guidance and advice of counsel, the Portfolio will seek to gain exposure to the commodity markets primarily through investments in commodity index-linked notes. These notes are subject to risks, such as credit, market and interest rate risks, that in general affect the values of debt securities. In addition, these notes are often leveraged, increasing the volatility of each note’s market value relative to changes in the underlying commodity, commodity futures contract or commodity index. Therefore, at the maturity of the note, the Portfolio may receive more or less principal than it originally invested. The Portfolio may receive interest payments on the note that are more or less than the stated coupon interest payments.
As a result of the Portfolio’s investments in commodity index-linked notes and other commodity-linked derivative instruments, it is possible that a lesser amount of the Portfolio’s assets would be available for investment in inflation-indexed instruments and other fixed income instruments, which could adversely affect the Portfolio’s total return.
The Portfolio is intended for long-term investors and an investment in the Portfolio should be no more than a small part of a typical diversified portfolio. The Portfolio’s share price is expected to be more volatile than that of other funds. The Portfolio may invest in commodity-linked derivative instruments which may subject the Portfolio to greater volatility than investments in traditional securities. The value of commodity-linked derivative instruments may be affected by changes in overall market movements, changes in interest rates, and other factors such as weather, disease, embargoes, and international economic and political developments, as well as the trading activity of speculators and arbitrageurs in the underlying commodities.

On the performance summary page in this Semiannual Report, the Total Return Investment Performance table measures performance assuming that all dividend and capital gain distributions were reinvested.
An investment in the Portfolio is not a deposit of a bank and is not guaranteed or insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. It is possible to lose money on investments in the Portfolio.
PIMCO has adopted written proxy voting policies and procedures (“Proxy Policy”) as required by Rule 206(4)-6 under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940. The Proxy Policy has been adopted by the Trust as the policies and procedures that PIMCO will use when voting proxies on behalf of the Portfolio. Copies of the written Proxy Policy and the factors that PIMCO may consider in determining how to vote proxies for the Portfolio, and information about how the Portfolio voted proxies relating to portfolio securities held during the most recent twelve-month period ended June 30, are available without charge, upon request, by calling the Trust at 1-866-746-2606 and on the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) website at http://www.sec.gov.
The Portfolio files its complete schedule of portfolio holdings with the SEC for the first and third quarters of each fiscal year on Form N-Q. A copy of the Trust’s Form N-Q is available on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov and may be reviewed and copied at the SEC’s Public Reference Room in Washington D.C. Information on the operation of the Public Reference Room may be obtained by calling 1-800-SEC-0330.

The following disclosure provides important information regarding the Portfolio’s Expense Example (“Example” or “Expense Example”), which appears in this Semiannual Report. Please refer to this information when reviewing the Expense Example for the Portfolio.
Example
As a shareholder of the Portfolio, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs and (2) ongoing costs, including advisory and administrative fees; distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees (Administrative Class only); and other Portfolio expenses. The Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Portfolio and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Expense Example does not reflect any fees or other expenses imposed by the Variable Contracts. If it did, the expenses reflected in the Expense Examples would be higher. The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period indicated, which is from January 1, 2006 to June 30, 2006.
Actual Expenses
The information in the table under the heading “Actual Performance” provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in these columns, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.60), then multiply the result by the number in the appropriate column for your share class, in the row titled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The information in the table under the heading “Hypothetical Performance (5% return before expenses)” provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Portfolio’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Portfolio’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Portfolio and other portfolios. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other portfolios.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs. Therefore, the information under the heading “Hypothetical Performance (5% return before expenses)” is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different portfolios. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.
The expense ratio may vary period to period because of various factors, such as an increase in expenses not covered by the advisory and administrative fees (such as expenses of the trustees and their counsel or litigation expense).
Portfolio Benchmark
Dow Jones – AIG Commodity Total Return is an unmanaged index composed of futures contracts on 19 physical commodities. The index is designed to be a highly liquid and diversified benchmark for commodities as an asset class. It is not possible to invest directly in the index.

Past performance is no guarantee of future results. The performance quoted represents past performance. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that Fund shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. The Portfolio’s performance does not reflect the deduction of additional charges and expenses imposed in connection with investing in Variable Contracts, which will reduce returns. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. Performance data current to the most recent month-end is available by calling (800) 927-4648.

Portfolio Insights
» | | The PIMCO CommodityRealReturn Strategy Portfolio seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing under normal circumstances in commodity-linked derivative instruments backed by a portfolio of inflation-indexed securities and other Fixed-Income Instruments. |
» | | Commodities rallied for the six-month period of December 31, 2005 to June 30, 2006, driven in part by surging gasoline prices resulting from concerns over supply disruptions to the U.S. gasoline market amid strong demand. Also benefiting commodities was continued strong global economic growth, which boosted demand and prices alike for industrial metals. |
» | | The Portfolio invested the collateral backing its commodity derivatives positions primarily in Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities (“TIPS”), implementing a “double real®” strategy. For the six-month period ending June 30, 2006, this was negative for performance, as TIPS performance was negative. |
» | | The Portfolio’s below benchmark TIPS duration added to performance as real yields rose on strong U.S. economic growth. The effective duration of the Portfolio was 6.86 years on June 30, 2006 compared to a duration of 6.11 years for the benchmark. |
» | | The Portfolio’s emphasis on U.S. nominal bonds was negative for performance, as nominal yields rose faster than real yields on higher inflation expectations and the outlook for further Federal Reserve tightening. |
» | | Positions in short maturity U.S. nominal bonds for the period detracted significantly from performance due to a substantial flattening of the nominal yield curve. |
» | | Currency exposure added to performance resulting from a depreciation of the U.S. dollar relative to the Euro and Japanese Yen. |
» | | Mortgage holdings during the period were positive due to favorable coupon selection, particularly 15-year FNMA 5.0% and 30-year FNMA 5.5% coupons, which outperformed the broader Index. |

1. ORGANIZATION
The CommodityRealReturn Strategy Portfolio (the “Portfolio”) is a series of the PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust (the “Trust”). The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “Act”), as amended, as an open-end investment management company organized as a Delaware business trust on October 3, 1997. The Portfolio may offer up to two classes of shares: Administrative and Advisor. Information presented in these financial statements pertains to the Advisor Class of the Portfolio. Certain detailed financial information for the Administration Class is provided separately and is available upon request. The Trust is designed to be used as an investment vehicle by Separate Accounts of insurance companies that fund variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies and by qualified pension and retirement plans.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Trust in the preparation of its financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Security Valuation. Portfolio securities are valued as of the close of regular trading (normally 4:00 p.m., Eastern Time) on each day that the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) is open. Portfolio securities and other assets for which market quotes are readily available are stated at market value. Market value is generally determined on the basis of last reported sales prices, or if no sales are reported, based on quotes obtained from a quotation reporting system, established market makers, or pricing services. Fixed-income securities and non-exchange traded derivatives are normally valued on the basis of quotes obtained from brokers and dealers or pricing services. Prices obtained from independent pricing services use information provided by market makers or estimates of market values obtained from yield data relating to investments or securities with similar characteristics. Certain fixed-income securities purchased on a delayed-delivery basis are marked to market daily until settlement at the forward settlement date. Short-term investments having a maturity of 60 days or less are generally valued at amortized cost. Exchange traded options, futures and options on futures are valued at the settlement price determined by the relevant exchange.
Investments initially valued in currencies other than the U.S. dollar are converted to the U.S. dollar using exchange rates obtained from pricing services. As a result, the NAV of the Portfolio’s shares may be affected by changes in the value of currencies in relation to the U.S. dollar. The value of securities traded in markets outside the United States or denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar may be affected significantly on a day that the NYSE is closed and an investor is not able to purchase, redeem or exchange shares.
Securities and other assets for which market quotes are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction. The Board of Trustees has adopted methods for valuing securities and other assets in circumstances where market quotes are not readily available, and has delegated to Pacific Investment Management Company LLC (“PIMCO”) the responsibility for applying the valuation methods. In the event that market quotes are not readily available, and the security or asset cannot be valued pursuant to one of the valuation methods, the value of the security or asset will be determined in good faith by the Valuation Committee of the Board of Trustees, generally based upon recommendations provided by PIMCO. Market quotes are considered not readily available in circumstances where there is an absence of current or reliable market-based data (e.g., trade information, bid/asked information, broker quotes), including where events occur after the close of the relevant market, but prior to the close of regular trading, that materially affect the values of the Portfolio’s securities or assets. In addition, market quotes are considered not readily available when, due to extraordinary circumstances, the exchanges or markets on which the securities trade do not open for trading for the entire day and no other market prices are available. The Board has delegated to PIMCO the responsibility for monitoring significant events that may materially affect the values of the Portfolio’s securities or assets and for determining whether the value of the applicable securities or assets should be re-evaluated in light of such significant events.
When the Portfolio uses fair value pricing to determine its NAV, securities will not be priced on the basis of quotations from the primary market in which they are traded, but rather may be priced by another method that the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction believe accurately reflects fair value. The Trust’s policy is intended to result in a calculation of the Portfolio’s NAV that fairly reflects security values as of the time of pricing. However, fair values determined by the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction may not accurately reflect the price that the Portfolio could obtain for a security if it were to dispose of that security as of the time of pricing. Because foreign securities can trade on non-business days, the NAV of the Portfolio may change on days when shareholders will not be able to purchase or redeem fund shares. The prices used by the Portfolio may differ from the value that would be realized if the securities were sold and the differences could be material to the financial statements.
Securities Transactions and Investment Income. Securities transactions are recorded as of the trade date. Securities purchased or sold on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis may be settled a month or more after the trade date. Realized gains and losses from securities sold are recorded on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Portfolio is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, adjusted for the accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis. Paydown gains and losses on mortgage-related or asset-backed securities are recorded as components of interest income in the Statement of Operations.
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends from net investment income, if any, are declared and distributed to shareholders quarterly. Net realized capital gains earned by the Portfolio, if any, will be distributed no less frequently than once each year. Most shareholders choose to reinvest their dividends and capital gain distribution in additional shares of the Portfolio.
Income dividends and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP. Differences between tax regulations and GAAP may change the fiscal year when income and capital items are recognized for tax and GAAP purposes. Examples of events that give rise to timing differences include wash sales, straddles, net operating losses and capital loss carryforwards. Further, the character of investment income and capital gains may be different for certain transactions under the two methods of accounting. Examples of characterization differences include the treatment of mortgage paydowns, swaps, foreign currency transactions and contingent debt instruments. As a result, income dividends and capital gain distributions declared during a fiscal period may differ significantly from the net investment income and realized capital gain reported in the Portfolio’s annual financial statements presented under GAAP.
Distributions classified as a tax basis return of capital, if any, are reflected in the accompanying Statements of Changes in Net Assets and have been reclassified to paid in capital. In addition, other amounts have been reclassified between

Notes to Financial Statements (Cont.)
undistributed net investment income, accumulated undistributed net realized gains or losses and/or paid in capital to more appropriately conform financial accounting to tax characterizations of dividend distributions.
Multiclass Operations. Each class offered by the Portfolio has equal rights as to assets and voting privileges (except that shareholders of a class have exclusive voting rights regarding any matter relating solely to that class of shares). Income and non-class specific expenses of the Portfolio are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative value of settled shares. Realized and unrealized capital gains and losses of the Portfolio are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative net assets of each class. Class specific expenses, where applicable, currently include administrative, distribution and servicing fees.
Delayed-Delivery Transactions. The Portfolio may purchase or sell securities on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis. These transactions involve a commitment by the Portfolio to purchase or sell securities for a predetermined price or yield, with payment and delivery taking place beyond the customary settlement period. When delayed-delivery purchases are outstanding, the Portfolio will designate liquid assets in an amount sufficient to meet the purchase price. When purchasing a security on a delayed-delivery basis, the Portfolio assumes the rights and risks of ownership of the security, including the risk of price and yield fluctuations, and takes such fluctuations into account when determining its net asset value. The Portfolio may dispose of or renegotiate a delayed-delivery transaction after it is entered into, and may sell when-issued securities before they are delivered, which may result in a capital gain or loss. When the Portfolio has sold a security on a delayed-delivery basis, the Portfolio does not participate in future gains and losses with respect to the security.
Federal Income Taxes. The Portfolio intends to qualify as a regulated investment company under sub-chapter M of the Internal Revenue Code and distribute all of its taxable income and net realized gains, if applicable, to shareholders. Accordingly, no provision for Federal income taxes has been made.
The Portfolio may gain exposure to the commodities markets by entering into swap agreements on a commodities index, and may invest in other commodity-linked derivative instruments, including commodity swap agreements, options, futures contracts, options on futures contracts and commodity-linked structured notes.
One of the requirements for favorable tax treatment as a regulated investment company under the Code is that the Portfolio derive at least 90 percent of its gross income from certain qualifying sources of income. On December 16, 2005, the IRS issued Revenue Ruling 2006-01 which held that income from commodity index-linked swaps was not qualifying income. At the time Revenue Ruling 2006-01 was issued, the Portfolio invested primarily in commodity index-linked swaps to gain exposure to the commodity markets. Revenue Ruling 2006-01 provided an effective date of June 30, 2006, after which time the Portfolio’s ability to utilize commodity index-linked swaps as part of its investment strategy will be limited to a maximum of 10 percent of its gross income.
On June 2, 2006, the IRS issued Revenue Ruling 2006-31 which extends the effective date for Revenue Ruling 2006-01 from June 30, 2006 until September 30, 2006. Revenue Ruling 2006-31 also clarifies the holding of Revenue Ruling 2006-01 by providing that income from alternative instruments (such as certain commodity index-linked notes) that create commodity exposure may be considered qualifying income under the Code. In addition, the IRS has also issued private letter rulings to at least two other funds in which the IRS specifically concluded that income from certain commodity index-linked notes is qualifying income. The Portfolio has also obtained an opinion of counsel with respect to the treatment of income from commodity index-linked notes as qualifying income under the Code. Such an opinion is not binding upon the IRS.
Based on Revenue Ruling 2006-31, IRS guidance and advice of counsel, the Portfolio will seek to gain exposure to the commodity markets primarily through investments in commodity index-linked notes. The use of commodity index-linked notes involves specific risks. The Portfolio will continue to seek ways to make use of other commodity-linked derivative instruments, including swap agreements, commodity options, futures and options on futures, and alternative structures within the Portfolio to gain exposure to commodity markets. Please refer to the prospectus for the Separate Account and Variable Contract for information regarding federal income tax treatment of distributions to the Separate Account.
Foreign Currency. The accounting records of the Portfolio are maintained in U.S. dollar. The market values of foreign securities, currency holdings and other assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollar based on the current exchange rates each business day. Fluctuations in the value of currency holdings and other assets and liabilities resulting from changes in exchange rates are recorded as unrealized foreign currency gains or losses. Realized gains or losses and unrealized appreciation or depreciation on investment securities and income and expenses are translated on the respective dates of such transactions. The effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on investments in securities are not segregated in the Statement of Operations from the effects of changes in market prices of those securities, but are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss on investment securities.

Non-U.S. currency symbols utilized throughout the report are defined as follows: |
EUR | | Euro | | | | |
GBP | | British Pound | | | | |
JPY | | Japanese Yen | | | | |
Forward Currency Transactions. The Portfolio may enter into forward currency contracts in connection with settling planned purchases or sales of securities, to hedge the currency exposure associated with some or all of the Portfolio’s securities or as a part of an investment strategy. A forward currency contract is an agreement between two parties to buy and sell a currency at a set price on a future date. The market value of a forward currency contract fluctuates with changes in forward currency exchange rates. Forward currency contracts are marked to market daily and the change in value is recorded by the Portfolio as an unrealized gain or loss. Realized gains or losses equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed are recorded upon delivery or receipt of the currency or, if a forward currency contract is offset by entering into another forward currency contract with the same broker, upon settlement of the net gain or loss. These contracts may involve market risk in excess of the unrealized gain or loss reflected in the Portfolio’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities. In addition, the Portfolio could be exposed to risk if the counterparties are unable to meet the terms of the contracts or if the value of the currency changes unfavorably to the U.S. dollar.
Futures Contracts. The Portfolio is authorized to enter into futures contracts. The Portfolio may use futures contracts to manage its exposure to the securities markets or to movements in interest rates and currency values. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are the imperfect correlation between the change in market value of the securities held by the Portfolio and the prices of futures contracts, the possibility of an illiquid market, and the inability of the counterparty to meet the terms of the contract. Futures contracts are valued based upon their quoted daily settlement prices. Upon entering into a futures contract, the Portfolio is required to deposit with its custodian, in a segregated account in the name of the futures broker, an amount of cash or U.S. Government and Agency Obligations in accordance with the initial margin requirements of the broker or exchange. Futures contracts are marked to market daily and an appropriate payable or receivable for the change in value (“variation margin”) is recorded by the Portfolio. Gains or losses are recognized but not considered realized until the

contracts expire or are closed. Futures contracts involve, to varying degrees, risk of loss in excess of the variation margin disclosed in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
Guarantees and Indemnifications. Under the Trust’s organizational documents, each Trustee, officer, employee or other agent of the Trust (including the Trust’s investment manager) is indemnified against certain liabilities that may arise out of performance of their duties to the Portfolio. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Portfolio enters into contracts that contain a variety of indemnification clauses. The Portfolio’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Portfolio that have not yet occurred. However, the Portfolio has not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts, and believes the risk of loss to be remote.
Inflation-Indexed Bonds. The Portfolio may invest in inflation-indexed bonds. Inflation-indexed bonds are fixed-income securities whose principal value is periodically adjusted to the rate of inflation. The interest rate on these bonds is generally fixed at issuance at a rate lower than typical bonds. Over the life of an inflation-indexed bond, however, interest will be paid based on a principal value, which is adjusted for inflation. Any increase in the principal amount of an inflation-indexed bond will be included as interest income in the Statement of Operations, even though investors do not receive their principal until maturity.
Options Contracts. The Portfolio may write call and put options on futures, swaps, securities or currencies it owns or in which it may invest. Writing put options tends to increase the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. Writing call options tends to decrease the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. When the Portfolio writes a call or put option, an amount equal to the premium received is recorded as a liability and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the option written. These liabilities are reflected as written options outstanding in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Certain options may be written with premiums to determined on a future date. The premiums for these options are based upon implied volatility parameters at specified terms. Premiums received from writing options which expire are treated as realized gains. Premiums received from writing options which are exercised or closed are added to the proceeds or offset against amounts paid on the underlying future, swap, security or currency transaction to determine the realized gain or loss. The Portfolio as a writer of an option has no control over whether the underlying future, swap, security or currency may be sold (call) or purchased (put) and as a result bears the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the future, swap, security or currency underlying the written option. There is the risk the Portfolio may not be able to enter into a closing transaction because of an illiquid market.
The Portfolio may also purchase put and call options. Purchasing call options tends to increase the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. Purchasing put options tends to decrease the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. The Portfolio pays a premium which is included in the Portfolio’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an investment and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the option. Premiums paid for purchasing options which expire are treated as realized losses. Certain options may be purchased with premiums to be determined on a future date. The premiums for these options are based upon implied volatility parameters at specified terms. The risk associated with purchasing put and call options is limited to the premium paid. Premiums paid for purchasing options which are exercised or closed are added to the amounts paid or offset against the proceeds on the underlying future, swap, security or currency transaction to determine the realized gain or loss.
Repurchase Agreements. The Portfolio may engage in repurchase transactions. Under the terms of a typical repurchase agreement, the Portfolio takes possession of an underlying debt obligation subject to an obligation of the seller to repurchase, and the Portfolio to resell, the obligation at an agreed-upon price and time. The market value of the collateral must be equal to or exceed at all times the total amount of the repurchase obligations, including interest. Securities purchased under repurchase agreements are reflected as an asset in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Generally, in the event of counterparty default, the Portfolio has the right to use the collateral to offset losses incurred. If the counterparty should default, the Portfolio will seek to sell the securities which it holds as collateral. This could involve procedural costs or delays in addition to a loss on the securities if their value should fall below their repurchase price.
Mortgage-Related and Other Asset-Backed Securities. The Portfolio may invest in mortgage-related or other asset-backed securities. These securities include mortgage pass-through securities, collateralized mortgage obligations (“CMOs”), commercial mortgage-backed securities, mortgage dollar rolls, CMO residuals, stripped mortgage-backed securities (“SMBSs”) and other securities that directly or indirectly represent a participation in, or are secured by and payable from, mortgage loans on real property. The value of some mortgage- or asset-backed securities may be particularly sensitive to changes in prevailing interest rates. Early repayment of principal on some mortgage-related securities may expose the Portfolio to a lower rate of return upon reinvestment of principal. The value of these securities may fluctuate in response to the market’s perception of the creditworthiness of the issuers. Additionally, although mortgages and mortgage-related securities are generally supported by some form of government or private guarantee and/or insurance, there is no assurance that private guarantors or insurers will meet their obligations.
Swap Agreements. The Portfolio may engage in swap transactions, including, but not limited to, swap agreements on interest rate, total return and credit default to manage its exposure to interest rates and credit risk. In connection with these agreements, securities may be identified as collateral in accordance with the terms of the respective swap agreements.
Interest rate swap agreements involve the exchange by the Portfolio with another party of their respective commitments to pay or receive interest, e.g., an exchange of floating rate payments for fixed rate payments with respect to the notional amount of principal.
Credit default swap agreements involve one party making a stream of payments to another party in exchange for the right to receive a specified return in the event of a default by a third party, typically corporate issues or sovereign issues of an emerging country, on its obligation. The Portfolio may use credit default swaps to provide a measure of protection against defaults of the issuers (i.e., to reduce risk where the Portfolio owns or has exposure to the sovereign issuer) or to take an active long or short position with respect to the likelihood of a particular issuer’s default. As a seller of protection, the Portfolio generally receives an upfront payment or a fixed rate of income throughout the term of the swap provided that there is no credit event. If the Portfolio is a seller of protection and a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement, the Portfolio will pay to the buyer of the protection an amount up to the notional value of the swap and in certain instances take delivery of the security. As the seller, the Portfolio would effectively add leverage to its portfolio because, in addition to its total net assets, the Portfolio would be subject to investment exposure on the notional amount of the swap. As a buyer of protection, the Portfolio generally receives an amount up to the notional value of the swap if a credit event occurs. The treatment of a credit default swaps and other swap agreements that provide for contingent, non-periodic, bullet-type payments as “notional principal contracts” for federal income tax purposes is uncertain. Were the Internal Revenue Service in take the position that a credit default swap or other bullet-type swap is not a “notional principal contract” for federal income tax purposes, payments received by the Portfolio from such investments might be subject to income taxes.

Notes to Financial Statements (Cont.)
Swaps are marked to market daily based upon quotations from market makers and the change in value, if any, is recorded as unrealized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Payments received or made at the beginning of the measurement period are reflected as such in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. These upfront payments are recorded as realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations upon termination or maturity of the swap. A liquidation payment received or made at the termination of the swap is recorded as realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Net periodic payments received or paid by the Portfolio are included as part of realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Entering into these agreements involves, to varying degrees, elements of credit, market and documentation risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Such risks involve the possibility that there will be no liquid market for these agreements, that the counterparty to the agreements may default on its obligation to perform or disagree as to the meaning of contractual terms in the agreements and that there may be unfavorable changes in interest rates.
Commodities Linked/Structured Notes. The Portfolio invests in structured notes whose value is based on the price movements of a commodity index. The structured notes are often leveraged, increasing the volatility of each note’s value relative to the change in the underlying linked financial element. The value of these notes will rise and fall in response to changes in the underlying commodity index. Structured securities may entail a greater degree of market risk than other types of debt securities because the investor bears the risk of the underlying commodity index. Structured notes may also be more volatile, less liquid, and more difficult to accurately price than less complex securities or more traditional debt securities. Fluctuations in value of the structured notes are recorded as unrealized gains and losses in the accompanying financial statements. Net payments are recorded as net realized gains/losses. These notes are subject to prepayment, credit and interest risks. The Portfolio has the option to request prepayment from the issuer. At maturity, or when a note is sold, the Portfolio records a realized gain or loss. At June 30, 2006, the value of these securities comprised 34.2% of the Portfolio’s net assets and resulted in unrealized appreciation of $2,703.
U.S. Government Agencies or Government-Sponsored Enterprises. Securities issued by U.S. Government agencies or government-sponsored enterprises may not be guaranteed by the U.S. Treasury. The Government National Mortgage Association (“GNMA”), a wholly owned U.S. Government corporation, is authorized to guarantee, with the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government, the timely payment of principal and interest on securities issued by institutions approved by GNMA and backed by pools of mortgages insured by the Federal Housing Administration or guaranteed by the Department of Veterans Affairs. Government-related guarantors (i.e., not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government) include the Federal National Mortgage Association (“FNMA” or “Fannie Mae”) and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“FHLMC” or “Freddie Mac”). Pass-through securities issued by FNMA are guaranteed as to timely payment of principal and interest by FNMA but are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government. FHLMC guarantees the timely payment of interest and ultimate collection of principal, but its participation certificates are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government.
New Accounting Policies. In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes—an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (the “Interpretation”). The Interpretation is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. Management is currently evaluating the application of the Interpretation to the Portfolio and will provide additional information in relation to the Interpretation in the Portfolio’s annual financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2006.
3. FEES, EXPENSES, AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Investment Advisory Fee. PIMCO is a majority-owned subsidiary of Allianz Global Investors of America L.P. (“AGI”) and serves as investment adviser (the “Adviser”) to the Trust, pursuant to an investment advisory contract. The Adviser receives a monthly fee at an annual rate based on average daily net assets of the Portfolio. The Advisory Fee is charged at an annual rate of 0.49%.
Administration Fee. PIMCO serves as administrator (the “Administrator”), and provides administrative services to the Trust for which it receives a monthly administrative fee based on average daily net assets of the Portfolio. As the Administrator, PIMCO bears the costs of various third-party services, including audit, custodial, portfolio accounting, legal, transfer agency and printing costs. The Administration Fee is charged at the annual rate of 0.25%.
Distribution and Servicing Fees. Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC (“AGID”) is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of AGI and serves as the distributor of the Trust’s shares. The Trust is permitted to reimburse AGID on a quarterly basis, out of the Administrative Class assets of the Portfolio in the amount of 0.15% on an annual basis of the average daily net assets of that class, for payments made to financial intermediaries that provide services in connection with the distribution of shares or administration of plans or programs that use Portfolio shares as their funding medium. The effective rate paid to AGID was 0.15% during the current fiscal year.
Expenses. The Trust is responsible for the following expenses: (i) salaries and other compensation of any of the Trust’s executive officers and employees who are not officers, directors, stockholders or employees of PIMCO or its subsidiaries or affiliates; (ii) taxes and governmental fees; (iii) brokerage fees and commissions and other portfolio transaction expenses; (iv) the costs of borrowing money, including interest expenses and bank overdraft charges; (v) fees and expenses of the Trustees who are not “interested persons” of PIMCO or the Trust, and any counsel retained exclusively for their benefit; (vi) extraordinary expenses, including costs of litigation and indemnification expenses; (vii) organization expenses and (viii) any expenses allocated or allocable to a specific class of shares, which include service fees payable with respect to the Administrative Class shares and may include certain other expenses as permitted by the Trust’s Multiple Class Plan adopted pursuant to Rule 18f-3 under the Act and subject to review and approval by the Trustees. The ratio of expenses to average net assets per share class, as disclosed in the Financial Highlights, may differ from the annual portfolio operating expenses per share class as disclosed in the Prospectus for the reasons set forth above.
PIMCO has agreed to waive a portion of its administrative fees to the extent that the payment of the Portfolio’s pro rata share of organization expenses and Trustee fees cause the actual expense ratio to rise above the rates disclosed in the then-current prospectus plus 0.49 basis points as set forth below (calculated as a percentage of the Portfolio’s average daily net assets attributable to each class):
| | | |
Administrative Class | | 0.89 | % |
PIMCO may be reimbursed for these waived amounts in future periods, not to exceed thirty-six months. Expenses that have been waived and may still be reimbursed by the Administrator, to the extent the Portfolio’s annualized total portfolio operating expenses plus the amount so reimbursed does not exceed the operating expense limitation, are as follows (amounts in thousands):
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

For the current period ended June 30, 2006, each unaffiliated Trustee received an annual retainer of $15,000, plus $2,000 for each Board of Trustees quarterly meeting attended, $500 for each Board of Trustees committee meeting attended and $500 for each special board meeting attended, plus reimbursement of related expenses. In addition, each Committee Chair received an additional annual retainer of $500 and each Audit Committee Chair received an additional annual retainer of $1,500. These expenses are allocated on a pro-rata basis to each Portfolio of the Trust according to its respective net assets. The Trust pays no compensation directly to any Trustee or any other officer who is affiliated with the Administrator, all of whom receive remuneration for their services to the Trust from the Administrator or its affiliates.
4. PURCHASES AND SALES OF SECURITIES
The length of time the Portfolio has held a particular security is not generally a consideration in investment decisions. A change in the securities held by the Portfolio is known as “portfolio turnover”. The Portfolio may engage in frequent and active trading of portfolio securities to achieve its investment objective, particularly during periods of volatile market movements. High portfolio turnover (e.g., over 100%) involves correspondingly greater expenses to the Portfolio, including brokerage commissions or dealer mark-ups and other transaction costs on the sale of securities and reinvestments in other securities. Such sales may also result in realization of taxable capital gains, including short-term capital gains (which are generally taxed at ordinary income tax rates). The trading costs and tax effects associated with portfolio turnover may adversely affect the Portfolio’s performance.
Purchases and sales of securities (excluding short-term investments) for the period ended June 30, 2006 were as follows (amounts in thousands):

$ 5,397 | | $ (935) | | $ 4,462 |
8. REGULATORY AND LITIGATION MATTERS
On June 1, 2004, the Attorney General of the State of New Jersey announced that it had dismissed PIMCO from a complaint filed by the New Jersey Attorney General on February 17, 2004, and that it had entered into a settlement agreement (the “New Jersey Settlement”) with Allianz Global Investors of America L.P. (“AGI”) (formerly known as Allianz Dresdner Asset Management of America L.P.), PEA Capital LLC (an entity affiliated with PIMCO through common ownership) (“PEA”) and Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC (“AGID”), in connection with the same matter. In the New Jersey Settlement, AGI, PEA and AGID neither admitted nor denied the allegations or conclusions of law, but did agree to pay New Jersey a civil fine of $15 million and $3 million for investigative costs and further potential enforcement initiatives against unrelated parties. They also undertook to implement certain governance changes. The complaint relating to the New Jersey Settlement alleged, among other things, that AGI, PEA and AGID had failed to disclose that they improperly allowed certain hedge funds to engage in “market timing” in certain funds. The complaint sought injunctive relief, civil monetary penalties, restitution and disgorgement of profits.

Notes to Financial Statements (Cont.) | | June 30, 2006 (Unaudited) |
Since February 2004, PIMCO, AGI, PEA, AGID, and certain of their affiliates, including the PIMCO Funds, the Allianz Funds (formerly known as PIMCO Funds: Multi-Manager Series), and the Trustees and employees of the PIMCO Funds, have been named as defendants in fifteen lawsuits filed in various jurisdictions. Eleven of those lawsuits concern “market timing,” and they have been transferred to and consolidated for pre-trial proceedings in a multi-district litigation proceeding in the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland; the other four lawsuits concern “revenue sharing” and have been consolidated into a single action in the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut. The lawsuits have been commenced as putative class actions on behalf of investors who purchased, held or redeemed shares of the various series of the PIMCO Funds and the Allianz Funds during specified periods, or as derivative actions on behalf of the PIMCO Funds and Allianz Funds.
The market timing actions in the District of Maryland generally allege that certain hedge funds were allowed to engage in “market timing” in certain of the PIMCO Funds and the Allianz Funds and this alleged activity was not disclosed. Pursuant to tolling agreements entered into with the derivative and class action plaintiffs, PIMCO, the Trustees, and certain employees of PIMCO who were previously named as defendants have all been dropped as defendants in the market timing actions; the plaintiffs continue to assert claims on behalf of the shareholders of the PIMCO Funds or on behalf of the PIMCO Funds themselves against other defendants. By order dated November 3, 2005, the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland granted the PIMCO Funds’ motion to dismiss claims asserted against it in a consolidated amended complaint where the PIMCO Funds were named, in the complaint, as a nominal defendant. The revenue sharing action in the District of Connecticut generally alleges that fund assets were inappropriately used to pay brokers to promote the PIMCO Funds and Allianz Funds including directing fund brokerage transactions to such brokers, and that such alleged arrangements were not fully disclosed to shareholders. On August 11, 2005 the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut conducted a hearing on defendants’ motion to dismiss the consolidated amended complaint in the revenue sharing action but has not yet ruled on the motion to dismiss. The market timing and revenue sharing lawsuits seek, among other things, unspecified compensatory damages plus interest and, in some cases, punitive damages, the rescission of investment advisory contracts, the return of fees paid under those contracts and restitution.
Under Section 9(a) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“1940 Act”), if the New Jersey Settlement or any of the lawsuits described above were to result in a court injunction against AGI, PEA, AGID and/or their affiliates, PIMCO could, in the absence of exemptive relief granted by the SEC, be barred from serving as an investment adviser, and AGID could be barred from serving as principal underwriter, to any registered investment company, including the Portfolios of the Trust. In connection with an inquiry from the SEC concerning the status of the New Jersey Settlement under Section 9(a), PEA, AGID, AGI and certain of their affiliates (including PIMCO) (together, the “Applicants”) have sought exemptive relief from the SEC under Section 9(c) of the 1940 Act. The SEC has granted the Applicants a temporary exemption from the provisions of Section 9(a) with respect to the New Jersey Settlement until the earlier of (i) September 13, 2006 and (ii) the date on which the SEC takes final action on their application for a permanent order. There is no assurance that the SEC will issue a permanent order.
Two nearly identical class action civil complaints have been filed in August 2005, in the Northern District of Illinois Eastern Division alleging that the plaintiffs each purchased and sold a 10-year Treasury note futures contract and suffered damages from an alleged shortage when PIMCO held both physical and futures positions in 10-year Treasury notes for its client accounts. The two actions have been consolidated into one action, and the two separate complaints have been replaced by a consolidated complaint. PIMCO is a named defendant, and the PIMCO Funds have been added as a defendant, to the consolidated action. PIMCO strongly believes the complaint (and any consolidated complaint filed hereafter) is without merit and intends to vigorously defend itself.
Certain Portfolios of the Trust were recently served in an adversary proceeding brought by the Official Committee of Asbestos Claimants of G-I Holdings, Inc. in G-I Holdings, Inc.’s bankruptcy in the District of New Jersey. PIMCO was previously named in this lawsuit and remains a defendant. The plaintiff seeks to recover for the bankruptcy estate assets that were transferred by the predecessor entity of G-I Holdings, Inc. to a wholly-owned subsidiary in 1994. The subsidiary has since issued notes, of which certain Portfolios of the Trust are alleged to be holders. The complaint alleges that in 2000, more than two hundred noteholders—including certain Portfolios of the Trust—were granted a second priority lien on the assets of the subsidiary in exchange for their consent to a refinancing transaction and the granting of a first priority lien to the lending banks. The plaintiff is seeking invalidation of the lien in favor of the noteholders and/or the value of the lien.
It is possible that these matters and/or other developments resulting from these matters could result in increased fund redemptions or other adverse consequences to the Portfolios. However, PIMCO and AGID believe that these matters are not likely to have a material adverse effect on the Portfolios or on PIMCO’s or AGID’s ability to perform their respective investment advisory or distribution services relating to the Portfolios.

Chairman’s Letter
Dear PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust Shareholder:
It is our pleasure to present to you the semiannual report for the PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust covering the six-month period ended June 30, 2006.
Highlights of the global bond markets during the six-month period included:
| n | | Most fixed-income sectors lost ground during the first half of 2006, as concern about accelerating inflation and central bank tightening pushed interest rates higher worldwide. The benchmark Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index (which includes Treasury, Investment-Grade Corporate, and Residential Mortgage-Backed Securities) returned -0.72% for the first six months of the year. On June 30, the benchmark ten-year Treasury yielded 5.14%, 0.75% higher than at the start of the year. The U.S. yield curve remained flat as shorter-maturity yields rose by a comparable amount. |
| n | | The Federal Reserve tightened four times during the reporting period, bringing the Federal Funds Rate to 5.25%. The increase near the end of the period was the Federal Reserve’s 17th consecutive rate hike since the start of its tightening cycle in 2004. The Federal Reserve was not alone, as central banks in Europe, India, and China tightened credit in unison for the first time since 2000. The Bank of Japan, whose zero-interest-rate policy has flooded global markets with liquidity, looked set to reverse this policy in the coming months. |
In these pages please find a more complete Portfolio review as it relates to financial-market activities, as well as details about total-return investment performance for the six-month reporting period. Thank you for the trust you have placed in us. We will continue to work diligently to meet your investment needs.
Sincerely,

Brent R. Harris
Chairman, PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust

Important Information About the Portfolios
PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust (the “Trust”) is an open-end investment company currently consisting of nineteen separate investment portfolios, including the Emerging Markets Bond Portfolio (the “Portfolio”). The Portfolio is only available as a funding vehicle under variable life insurance policies or variable annuity contracts issued by insurance companies (“Variable Contracts”). Individuals may not purchase shares of the Portfolio directly. Shares of the Portfolio also may be sold to qualified pension and retirement plans outside of the separate account context.
We believe that bond funds have an important role to play in a well diversified investment portfolio. It is important to note, however, that in an environment where interest rates may trend upward, rising rates would negatively impact the performance of most bond funds, and fixed-income securities held by a fund are likely to decrease in value. The price volatility of fixed-income securities can also increase during periods of rising interest rates resulting in increased losses to a fund. Bond funds and individual bonds with a longer duration (a measure of the expected life of a security) tend to be more sensitive to changes in interest rates, usually making them more volatile than securities or funds with shorter durations. The longer-term performance of most bond funds has benefited from capital gains in part resulting from an extended period of declining interest rates. In the event interest rates increase, these capital gains should not be expected to recur.
The Portfolio may be subject to various risks in addition to those described above. Some of these risks may include, but are not limited to, the following: credit risk, high yield risk, market risk, issuer risk, liquidity risk, derivatives risk, mortgage risk, non-U.S. investment risk, emerging markets risk, currency risk, issuer non-diversification risk, leveraging risk and management risk. A complete description of these risks is contained in the Portfolio’s prospectus. The Portfolio may use derivative instruments for hedging purposes or as part of an investment strategy. Use of these instruments may involve certain costs and risks such as liquidity risk, interest rate risk, market risk, credit risk, management risk and the risk that the Portfolio could not close out a position when it would be most advantageous to do so. A Portfolio investing in derivatives could lose more than the principal amount invested in these instruments. Investing in non-U.S. securities may entail risk due to non-U.S. economic and political developments; this risk may be increased when investing in emerging markets.
On the performance summary page in this Semiannual Report, the Total Return Investment Performance table measures performance assuming that all dividend and capital gain distributions were reinvested.
An investment in the Portfolio is not a deposit of a bank and is not guaranteed or insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. It is possible to lose money on investments in the Portfolio.
PIMCO has adopted written proxy voting policies and procedures (“Proxy Policy”) as required by Rule 206(4)-6 under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940. The Proxy Policy has been adopted by the Trust as the policies and procedures that PIMCO will use when voting proxies on behalf of the Portfolio. Copies of the written Proxy Policy and the factors that PIMCO may consider in determining how to vote proxies for the Portfolio, and information about how the Portfolio voted proxies relating to portfolio securities held during the most recent twelve-month period ended June 30, are available without charge, upon request, by calling the Trust at 1-866-746-2606 and on the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) website at http://www.sec.gov.
The Portfolio files its complete schedule of portfolio holdings with the SEC for the first and third quarters of each fiscal year on Form N-Q. A copy of the Trust’s Form N-Q is available on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov and may be reviewed and copied at the SEC’s Public Reference Room in Washington D.C. Information on the operation of the Public Reference Room may be obtained by calling 1-800-SEC-0330.
PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust is distributed by Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC, 2187 Atlantic Street, Stamford, CT 06902.

The following disclosure provides important information regarding the Portfolio’s Expense Example (“Example” or “Expense Example”), which appears in this Semiannual Report. Please refer to this information when reviewing the Expense Example for the Portfolio.
Example
As a shareholder of the Portfolio, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs and (2) ongoing costs, including advisory and administrative fees; distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees (Administrative Class only); and other Portfolio expenses. The Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Portfolio and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Expense Example does not reflect any fees or other expenses imposed by the Variable Contracts. If it did, the expenses reflected in the Expense Examples would be higher. The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period indicated, which is from January 1, 2006 to June 30, 2006.
Actual Expenses
The information in the table under the heading “Actual Performance” provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in these columns, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.60), then multiply the result by the number in the appropriate column for your share class, in the row titled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The information in the table under the heading “Hypothetical Performance (5% return before expenses)” provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Portfolio’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Portfolio’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Portfolio and other portfolios. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other portfolios.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs. Therefore, the information under the heading “Hypothetical Performance (5% return before expenses)” is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different portfolios. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.
The expense ratio may vary period to period because of various factors, such as an increase in expenses not covered by the advisory and administrative fees (such as expenses of the trustees and their counsel or litigation expense).

Past performance is no guarantee of future results. The performance quoted represents past performance. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so the Portfolio shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. The Portfolio’s performance does not reflect the deduction of additional charges and expenses imposed in connection with investing in Variable Contracts, which will reduce returns. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. Performance data current to the most recent month-end is available by calling (800) 927-4648.

† Expenses are equal to the Portfolio’s Administrative Class annualized expense ratio of 1.00%, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 181/365 (to reflect the one-half year period). Overall fees and expenses of investing in the Portfolio will be higher because the example does not reflect Variable Contract fees and expenses.

Portfolio Insights
» | | The PIMCO Emerging Markets Bond Portfolio seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing at least 80% of its assets in Fixed- Income Securities of issuers that economically are tied to countries with emerging securities markets. |
» | | An overweight position in Brazil was positive; Brazil outperformed the index on the back of external debt buybacks and ratings upgrades from S&P and Fitch. |
» | | An overweight to Ecuador was positive; debt buybacks, a high spread cushion and supportive crude oil prices helped to balance political noise. The Ecuador sub-index rallied strongly in Q1 and returned 8.04% for the past six months. |
» | | A significant underweight to Turkey was positive, especially in Q2, when Turkish spreads widened by 1.12%. Spread widening was due to worries about the country’s large current account deficit, a major sell-off in the lira, and an increasing inflation rate. |
» | | Despite the recent shift in risk tolerance, which favored strong credits over weak credits in Q2, an underweight to Argentina was negative for the first half of the year. The country posted a return of 17.9% for the Q1, as short covering and a search for yield outweighed investor concerns over mounting inflation. Year-to-date, the sub-index has returned 10.8%. |
» | | Underweighting the Philippines was negative; the country outperformed due to high levels of overseas remittances and news that the budget shortfall narrowed. |
» | | Above benchmark duration in Q1 was negative as U.S. Treasury rates rose. |
» | | An emphasis on shorter maturities was negative, as the yield curve continued to flatten in the past six months. |
» | | A strategic allocation to emerging market currencies was positive, as attractive carry via high local interest rates was high enough to offset weakness in some EM currencies. |

Notes to Financial Statements | | June 30, 2006 (Unaudited) |
1. ORGANIZATION
The Emerging Markets Bond Portfolio (the “Portfolio”) is a series of the PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust (the “Trust”). The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “Act”), as amended, as an open-end investment management company organized as a Delaware business trust on October 3, 1997. The Portfolio offers two classes of shares: Administrative and Advisor. Information presented in these financial statements pertains to the Administrative Class of the Portfolio. Certain detailed financial information for the Advisor Class is provided separately and is available upon request. The Trust is designed to be used as an investment vehicle by Separate Accounts of insurance companies that fund variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies and by qualified pension and retirement plans.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Portfolio in the preparation of its financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Security Valuation. Portfolio securities are valued as of the close of regular trading (normally 4:00 p.m., Eastern Time) on each day that the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) is open. Portfolio securities and other assets for which market quotes are readily available are stated at market value. Market value is generally determined on the basis of last reported sales prices, or if no sales are reported, based on quotes obtained from a quotation reporting system, established market makers, or pricing services. Fixed-income securities and non-exchange traded derivatives are normally valued on the basis of quotes obtained from brokers and dealers or pricing services. Prices obtained from independent pricing services use information provided by market makers or estimates of market values obtained from yield data relating to investments or securities with similar characteristics. Certain fixed-income securities purchased on a delayed-delivery basis are marked to market daily until settlement at the forward settlement date. Short-term investments having a maturity of 60 days or less are generally valued at amortized cost. Exchange traded options, futures and options on futures are valued at the settlement price determined by the relevant exchange.
Investments initially valued in currencies other than the U.S. dollar are converted to the U.S. dollar using exchange rates obtained from pricing services. As a result, the NAV of the Portfolio’s shares may be affected by changes in the value of currencies in relation to the U.S. dollar. The value of securities traded in markets outside the United States or denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar may be affected significantly on a day that the NYSE is closed and an investor is not able to purchase, redeem or exchange shares.
Securities and other assets for which market quotes are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction. The Board of Trustees has adopted methods for valuing securities and other assets in circumstances where market quotes are not readily available, and has delegated to Pacific Investment Management Company LLC (“PIMCO”) the responsibility for applying the valuation methods. In the event that market quotes are not readily available, and the security or asset cannot be valued pursuant to one of the valuation methods, the value of the security or asset will be determined in good faith by the Valuation Committee of the Board of Trustees, generally based upon recommendations provided by PIMCO.
Market quotes are considered not readily available in circumstances where there is an absence of current or reliable market-based data (e.g., trade information, bid/asked information, broker quotes), including where events occur after the close of the relevant market, but prior to the close of regular trading, that materially affect the values of the Portfolio’s securities or assets. In addition, market quotes are considered not readily available when, due to extraordinary circumstances, the exchanges or markets on which the securities trade do not open for trading for the entire day and no other market prices are available. The Board has delegated to PIMCO the responsibility for monitoring significant events that may materially affect the values of the Portfolio’s securities or assets and for determining whether the value of the applicable securities or assets should be re-evaluated in light of such significant events. When the Portfolio uses fair value pricing to determine its NAV, securities will not be priced on the basis of quotations from the primary market in which they are traded, but rather may be priced by another method that the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction believe accurately reflects fair value. The Trust’s policy is intended to result in a calculation of the Portfolio’s NAV that fairly reflects security values as of the time of pricing. However, fair values determined by the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction may not accurately reflect the price that the Portfolio could obtain for a security if it were to dispose of that security as of the time of pricing. Because foreign securities can trade on non-business days, the NAV of the Portfolio may change on days when shareholders will not be able to purchase or redeem shares. The prices used by the Portfolio may differ from the value that would be realized if the securities were sold and the differences could be material to the financial statements.
Securities Transactions and Investment Income. Securities transactions are recorded as of the trade date. Securities purchased or sold on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis may be settled a month or more after the trade date. Realized gains and losses from securities sold are recorded on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Portfolio is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, adjusted for the accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis. Paydown gains and losses on mortgage-related or asset-backed securities are recorded as components of interest income in the Statement of Operations.
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends from net investment income, if any, are declared on each day the Portfolio is open for business and are distributed to shareholders monthly. Net realized capital gains earned by the Portfolio, if any, will be distributed no less frequently than once each year. Most shareholders choose to reinvest their dividends and capital gain distribution in additional shares of the Portfolio.
Income dividends and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP. Differences between tax regulations and GAAP may change the fiscal year when income and capital items are recognized for tax and GAAP purposes. Examples of events that give rise to timing differences include wash sales, straddles, net operating losses and capital loss carryforwards. Further, the character of investment income and capital gains may be different for certain transactions under the two methods of accounting. Examples of characterization differences include the treatment of mortgage paydowns, swaps, foreign currency transactions and contingent debt instruments. As a result, income dividends and capital gain distributions declared during a fiscal period may differ significantly from the net investment income and realized capital gain reported in the Portfolio’s annual financial statements presented under GAAP.
Distributions classified as a tax basis return of capital, if any, are reflected in the accompanying Statements of Changes in Net Assets and have been reclassified to paid in capital. In addition, other amounts have been reclassified between undistributed net investment income, accumulated undistributed net realized gains or losses and/or paid in capital to more appropriately conform financial accounting to tax characterizations of dividend distributions.

Notes to Financial Statements (Cont.)
Loan Participations and Assignments. The Portfolio may invest in direct debt instruments which are interests in amounts owned by corporate, governmental, or other borrowers to lenders or lending syndicates. The Portfolio’s investments in loans may be in the form of participations in loans or assignments of all or a portion of loans from third parties. A loan is often administered by a bank or other financial institution (the “lender”) that acts as agent for all holders. The agent administers the terms of the loan, as specified in the loan agreement. When investing in a loan participation, the Portfolio has the right to receive payments of principal, interest and any fees to which it is entitled only from the lender selling the loan agreement and only upon receipt by the lender of payments from the borrower. The Portfolio generally has no right to enforce compliance with the terms of the loan agreement with the borrower. As a result, the Portfolio may be subject to the credit risk of both the borrower and the lender that is selling the loan agreement. When the Portfolio purchases assignments from lenders it acquires direct rights against the borrower on the loan. At the end of the period, the Portfolio had no unfunded loan commitments.
Delayed-Delivery Transactions. The Portfolio may purchase or sell securities on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis. These transactions involve a commitment by the Portfolio to purchase or sell securities for a predetermined price or yield, with payment and delivery taking place beyond the customary settlement period. When delayed-delivery purchases are outstanding, the Portfolio will designate liquid assets in an amount sufficient to meet the purchase price. When purchasing a security on a delayed-delivery basis, the Portfolio assumes the rights and risks of ownership of the security, including the risk of price and yield fluctuations, and takes such fluctuations into account when determining its net asset value. The Portfolio may dispose of or renegotiate a delayed-delivery transaction after it is entered into, and may sell when-issued securities before they are delivered, which may result in a capital gain or loss. When the Portfolio has sold a security on a delayed-delivery basis, the Portfolio does not participate in future gains and losses with respect to the security.
Federal Income Taxes. The Portfolio intends to qualify as a regulated investment company under sub-chapter M of the Internal Revenue Code and distribute all of its taxable income and net realized gains, if applicable, to shareholders. Accordingly, no provision for Federal income taxes has been made.
Foreign Currency. The accounting records of the Portfolio are maintained in U.S. dollar. The market values of foreign securities, currency holdings and other assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollar based on the current exchange rates each business day. Fluctuations in the value of currency holdings and other assets and liabilities resulting from changes in exchange rates are recorded as unrealized foreign currency gains or losses. Realized gains or losses and unrealized appreciation or depreciation on investment securities and income and expenses are translated on the respective dates of such transactions. The effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on investments in securities are not segregated in the Statement of Operations from the effects of changes in market prices of those securities, but are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss on investment securities.

Forward Currency Transactions. The Portfolio may enter into forward currency contracts in connection with settling planned purchases or sales of securities, to hedge the currency exposure associated with some or all of the Portfolio’s securities or as a part of an investment strategy. A forward currency contract is an agreement between two parties to buy and sell a currency at a set price on a future date. The market value of a forward currency contract fluctuates with changes in forward currency exchange rates. Forward currency contracts are marked to market daily and the change in value is recorded by the Portfolio as an unrealized gain or loss. Realized gains or losses equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed are recorded upon delivery or receipt of the currency or, if a forward currency contract is offset by entering into another forward currency contract with the same broker, upon settlement of the net gain or loss. These contracts may involve market risk in excess of the unrealized gain or loss reflected in the Portfolio’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities. In addition, the Portfolio could be exposed to risk if the counterparties are unable to meet the terms of the contracts or if the value of the currency changes unfavorably to the U.S. dollar
Futures Contracts. The Portfolio is authorized to enter into futures contracts. The Portfolio may use futures contracts to manage its exposure to the securities markets or to movements in interest rates and currency values. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are the imperfect correlation between the change in market value of the securities held by the Portfolio and the prices of futures contracts, the possibility of an illiquid market, and the inability of the counterparty to meet the terms of the contract. Futures contracts are valued based upon their quoted daily settlement prices. Upon entering into a futures contract, the Portfolio is required to deposit with its custodian, in a segregated account in the name of the futures broker, an amount of cash or U.S. Government and Agency Obligations in accordance with the initial margin requirements of the broker or exchange. Futures contracts are marked to market daily and an appropriate payable or receivable for the change in value (“variation margin”) is recorded by the Portfolio. Gains or losses are recognized but not considered realized until the contracts expire or are closed. Futures contracts involve, to varying degrees, risk of loss in excess of the variation margin disclosed in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
Options Contracts. The Portfolio may write call and put options on futures, swaps, securities or currencies it owns or in which it may invest. Writing put options tends to increase the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. Writing call options tends to decrease the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. When the Portfolio writes a call or put option, an amount equal to the premium received is recorded as a liability and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the option written. These liabilities are reflected as written options outstanding in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Certain options may be written with premiums to determined on a future date. The premiums for these options are based upon implied volatility parameters at specified terms. Premiums received from writing options which expire are treated as realized gains. Premiums received from writing options which are exercised or closed are added to the proceeds or offset against amounts paid on the underlying future, swap, security or currency transaction to determine the realized gain or loss. The Portfolio as a writer of an option has no control over whether the underlying future, swap, security or currency may be sold (call) or purchased (put) and as a result bears the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the future, swap, security or currency underlying the written option. There is the risk the Portfolio may not be able to enter into a closing transaction because of an illiquid market.
The Portfolio may also purchase put and call options. Purchasing call options tends to increase the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. Purchasing put options tends to decrease the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. The Portfolio pays a premium which is included in the Portfolio’s Statement of
| | | | |

| | |
| |
| | June 30, 2006 (Unaudited) |
Assets and Liabilities as an investment and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the option. Premiums paid for purchasing options which expire are treated as realized losses. Certain options may be purchased with premiums to be determined on a future date. The premiums for these options are based upon implied volatility parameters at specified terms. The risk associated with purchasing put and call options is limited to the premium paid. Premiums paid for purchasing options which are exercised or closed are added to the amounts paid or offset against the proceeds on the underlying future, swap, security or currency transaction to determine the realized gain or loss.
Repurchase Agreements. The Portfolio may engage in repurchase transactions. Under the terms of a typical repurchase agreement, the Portfolio takes possession of an underlying debt obligation subject to an obligation of the seller to repurchase, and the Portfolio to resell, the obligation at an agreed-upon price and time. The market value of the collateral must be equal to or exceed at all times the total amount of the repurchase obligations, including interest. Securities purchased under repurchase agreements are reflected as an asset in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Generally, in the event of counterparty default, the Portfolio has the right to use the collateral to offset losses incurred. If the counterparty should default, the Portfolio will seek to sell the securities which it holds as collateral. This could involve procedural costs or delays in addition to a loss on the securities if their value should fall below their repurchase price.
Swap Agreements. The Portfolio may engage in swap transactions, including, but not limited to, swap agreements on interest rate, total return, forward spread-lock and credit default to manage its exposure to interest rates and credit risk. In connection with these agreements, securities may be identified as collateral in accordance with the terms of the respective swap agreements.
Interest rate swap agreements involve the exchange by the Portfolio with another party of their respective commitments to pay or receive interest, e.g., an exchange of floating rate payments for fixed rate payments with respect to the notional amount of principal.
Credit default swap agreements involve one party making a stream of payments to another party in exchange for the right to receive a specified return in the event of a default by a third party, typically corporate issues or sovereign issues of an emerging country, on its obligation. The Portfolio may use credit default swaps to provide a measure of protection against defaults of the issuers (i.e., to reduce risk where the Portfolio owns or has exposure to the sovereign issuer) or to take an active long or short position with respect to the likelihood of a particular issuer’s default. As a seller of protection, the Portfolio generally receives an upfront payment or a fixed rate of income throughout the term of the swap provided that there is no credit event. If the Portfolio is a seller of protection and a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement, the Portfolio will pay to the buyer of the protection an amount up to the notional value of the swap and in certain instances take delivery of the security. As the seller, the Portfolio would effectively add leverage to its portfolio because, in addition to its total net assets, the Portfolio would be subject to investment exposure on the notional amount of the swap. As a buyer of protection, the Portfolio generally receives an amount up to the notional value of the swap if a credit event occurs. The treatment of a credit default swaps and other swap agreements that provide for contingent, non-periodic, bullet-type payments as “notional principal contracts” for federal income tax purposes is uncertain. Were the Internal Revenue Service in take the position that a credit default swap or other bullet-type swap is not a “notional principal contract” for federal income tax purposes, payments received by the Portfolio from such investments might be subject to income taxes.
Swaps are marked to market daily based upon quotations from market makers and the change in value, if any, is recorded as unrealized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Payments received or made at the beginning of the measurement period are reflected as such in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. These upfront payments are recorded as realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations upon termination or maturity of the swap. A liquidation payment received or made at the termination of the swap is recorded as realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Net periodic payments received by the Portfolio are included as part of realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Entering into these agreements involves, to varying degrees, elements of credit, market and documentation risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Such risks involve the possibility that there will be no liquid market for these agreements, that the counterparty to the agreements may default on its obligation to perform or disagree as to the meaning of contractual terms in the agreements and that there may be unfavorable changes in interest rates.
Guarantees and Indemnifications. Under the Trust’s organizational documents, each Trustee, officer, employee or other agent of the Trust (including the Trust’s investment manager) is indemnified against certain liabilities that may arise out of performance of their duties to the Portfolio. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Portfolio enters into contracts that contain a variety of indemnification clauses. The Portfolio’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Portfolio that have not yet occurred. However, the Portfolio has not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts, and believes the risk of loss to be remote.
New Accounting Policies. In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes—an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (the “Interpretation”). The Interpretation is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. Management is currently evaluating the application of the Interpretation to the Portfolio and will provide additional information in relation to the Interpretation in the Portfolio’s annual financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2006.
3. FEES, EXPENSES, AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Investment Advisory Fee. PIMCO is a majority-owned subsidiary of Allianz Global Investors of America L.P. (“AGI”), and serves as investment adviser (the “Adviser”) to the Trust, pursuant to an investment advisory contract. The Adviser receives a monthly fee at an annual rate based on average daily net assets of the Portfolio. The Advisory Fee is charged at an annual rate of 0.45%.
Administration Fee. PIMCO serves as administrator (the “Administrator”), and provides administrative services to the Trust for which it receives a monthly administrative fee based on average daily net assets of the Portfolio. As the Administrator, PIMCO bears the costs of various third-party services, including audit, custodial, portfolio accounting, legal, transfer agency and printing costs. The Administration Fee is charged at the annual rate of 0.40%.
Distribution and Servicing Fees. Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC (“AGID”) is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of AGI and serves as the distributor of the Trust’s shares. The Trust is permitted to reimburse AGID on a quarterly basis, out of the Administrative Class assets of the Portfolio in the amount of 0.15% on an annual basis of the average daily net assets of that class, for payments made to financial intermediaries that provide services in connection with the distribution of shares or administration of plans or programs that use Portfolio shares as their funding medium. The effective rate paid to AGID was 0.15% during the current fiscal year.
Expenses. The Trust is responsible for the following expenses: (i) salaries and other compensation of any of the Trust’s executive officers and employees who are not officers, directors, stockholders or employees of PIMCO or its subsidiaries or affiliates; (ii) taxes and governmental fees; (iii) brokerage fees and commissions and other portfolio transaction expenses; (iv) the costs of borrowing money,
| | | | | | |
| | Semiannual Report | | June 30, 2006 | | 15 |
Notes to Financial Statements (Cont.)
including interest expenses and bank overdraft charges; (v) fees and expenses of the Trustees who are not “interested persons” of PIMCO or the Trust, and any counsel retained exclusively for their benefit; (vi) extraordinary expenses, including costs of litigation and indemnification expenses; (vii) organization expenses and (viii) any expenses allocated or allocable to a specific class of shares, which include service fees payable with respect to the Administrative Class shares and may include certain other expenses as permitted by the Trust’s Multiple Class Plan adopted pursuant to Rule 18f-3 under the Act and subject to review and approval by the Trustees. The ratio of expenses to average net assets per share class, as disclosed in the Financial Highlights, may differ from the annual portfolio operating expenses per share class as disclosed in the Prospectus for the reasons set forth above.
For the current period ended June 30, 2006, each unaffiliated Trustee received an annual retainer of $15,000, plus $2,000 for each Board of Trustees quarterly meeting attended, $500 for each Board of Trustees committee meeting attended and $500 for each special board meeting attended, plus reimbursement of related expenses. In addition, each Committee Chair received an additional annual retainer of $500 and each Audit Committee Chair received an additional annual retainer of $1,500. These expenses are allocated on a pro-rata basis to each Portfolio of the Trust according to its respective net assets. The Trust pays no compensation directly to any Trustee or any other officer who is affiliated with the Administrator, all of whom receive remuneration for their services to the Trust from the Administrator or its affiliates.
4. PURCHASES AND SALES OF SECURITIES
The length of time the Portfolio has held a particular security is not generally a consideration in investment decisions. A change in the securities held by the Portfolio is known as “portfolio turnover”. The Portfolio may engage in frequent and active trading of portfolio securities to achieve its investment objective, particularly during periods of volatile market movements. High portfolio turnover (e.g., over 100%) involves correspondingly greater expenses to the Portfolio, including brokerage commissions or dealer mark-ups and other transaction costs on the sale of securities and reinvestments in other securities. Such sales may also result in realization of taxable capital gains, including short-term capital gains (which are generally taxed at ordinary income tax rates). The trading costs and tax effects associated with portfolio turnover may adversely affect the Portfolio’s performance.
Purchases and sales of securities (excluding short-term investments) for the period ended June 30, 2006 were as follows (amounts in thousands):

$ 3,249 | | $ (3,279) | | $ (30) |
8. REGULATORY AND LITIGATION MATTERS
On June 1, 2004, the Attorney General of the State of New Jersey announced that it had dismissed PIMCO from a complaint filed by the New Jersey Attorney General on February 17, 2004, and that it had entered into a settlement agreement (the “New Jersey Settlement”) with Allianz Global Investors of America L.P. (“AGI”) (formerly known as Allianz Dresdner Asset Management of America L.P.), PEA Capital LLC (an entity affiliated with PIMCO through common ownership) (“PEA”) and Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC (“AGID”), in connection with the same matter. In the New Jersey Settlement, AGI, PEA and AGID neither admitted nor denied the allegations or conclusions of law, but did agree to pay New Jersey a civil fine of $15 million and $3 million for investigative costs and further potential enforcement initiatives against unrelated parties. They also undertook to implement certain governance changes. The complaint relating to the New Jersey Settlement alleged, among other things, that AGI, PEA and AGID had failed to disclose that they improperly allowed certain hedge funds to engage in
| | | | |
16 | | PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust | | |
| | |
| |
| | June 30, 2006 (Unaudited) |
“market timing” in certain funds. The complaint sought injunctive relief, civil monetary penalties, restitution and disgorgement of profits.
Since February 2004, PIMCO, AGI, PEA, AGID, and certain of their affiliates, including the PIMCO Funds, the Allianz Funds (formerly known as PIMCO Funds: Multi-Manager Series), and the Trustees and employees of the PIMCO Funds, have been named as defendants in fifteen lawsuits filed in various jurisdictions. Eleven of those lawsuits concern “market timing,” and they have been transferred to and consolidated for pre-trial proceedings in a multi-district litigation proceeding in the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland; the other four lawsuits concern “revenue sharing” and have been consolidated into a single action in the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut. The lawsuits have been commenced as putative class actions on behalf of investors who purchased, held or redeemed shares of the various series of the PIMCO Funds and the Allianz Funds during specified periods, or as derivative actions on behalf of the PIMCO Funds and Allianz Funds.
The market timing actions in the District of Maryland generally allege that certain hedge funds were allowed to engage in “market timing” in certain of the PIMCO Funds and the Allianz Funds and this alleged activity was not disclosed. Pursuant to tolling agreements entered into with the derivative and class action plaintiffs, PIMCO, the Trustees, and certain employees of PIMCO who were previously named as defendants have all been dropped as defendants in the market timing actions; the plaintiffs continue to assert claims on behalf of the shareholders of the PIMCO Funds or on behalf of the PIMCO Funds themselves against other defendants. By order dated November 3, 2005, the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland granted the PIMCO Funds’ motion to dismiss claims asserted against it in a consolidated amended complaint where the PIMCO Funds were named, in the complaint, as a nominal defendant. The revenue sharing action in the District of Connecticut generally alleges that fund assets were inappropriately used to pay brokers to promote the PIMCO Funds and Allianz Funds, including directing fund brokerage transactions to such brokers, and that such alleged arrangements were not fully disclosed to shareholders. On August 11, 2005 the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut conducted a hearing on defendants’ motion to dismiss the consolidated amended complaint in the revenue sharing action but has not yet ruled on the motion to dismiss. The market timing and revenue sharing lawsuits seek, among other things, unspecified compensatory damages plus interest and, in some cases, punitive damages, the rescission of investment advisory contracts, the return of fees paid under those contracts and restitution.
Under Section 9(a) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“1940 Act”), if the New Jersey Settlement or any of the lawsuits described above were to result in a court injunction against AGI, PEA, AGID and/or their affiliates, PIMCO could, in the absence of exemptive relief granted by the SEC, be barred from serving as an investment adviser, and AGID could be barred from serving as principal underwriter, to any registered investment company, including the Portfolios of the Trust. In connection with an inquiry from the SEC concerning the status of the New Jersey Settlement under Section 9(a), PEA, AGID, AGI and certain of their affiliates (including PIMCO) (together, the “Applicants”) have sought exemptive relief from the SEC under Section 9(c) of the 1940 Act. The SEC has granted the Applicants a temporary exemption from the provisions of Section 9(a) with respect to the New Jersey Settlement until the earlier of (i) September 13, 2006 and (ii) the date on which the SEC takes final action on their application for a permanent order. There is no assurance that the SEC will issue a permanent order.
Two nearly identical class action civil complaints have been filed in August 2005, in the Northern District of Illinois Eastern Division alleging that the plaintiffs each purchased and sold a 10-year Treasury note futures contract and suffered damages from an alleged shortage when PIMCO held both physical and futures positions in 10-year Treasury notes for its client accounts. The two actions have been consolidated into one action, and the two separate complaints have been replaced by a consolidated complaint. PIMCO is a named defendant, and the PIMCO Funds have been added as a defendant, to the consolidated action. PIMCO strongly believes the complaint (and any consolidated complaint filed hereafter) is without merit and intends to vigorously defend itself.
Certain Portfolios of the Trust were recently served in an adversary proceeding brought by the Official Committee of Asbestos Claimants of G-I Holdings, Inc. in G-I Holdings, Inc.’s bankruptcy in the District of New Jersey. PIMCO was previously named in this lawsuit and remains a defendant. The plaintiff seeks to recover for the bankruptcy estate assets that were transferred by the predecessor entity of G-I Holdings, Inc. to a wholly-owned subsidiary in 1994. The subsidiary has since issued notes, of which certain Portfolios of the Trust are alleged to be holders. The complaint alleges that in 2000, more than two hundred noteholders —including certain Portfolios of the Trust—were granted a second priority lien on the assets of the subsidiary in exchange for their consent to a refinancing transaction and the granting of a first priority lien to the lending banks. The plaintiff is seeking invalidation of the lien in favor of the noteholders and/or the value of the lien.
It is possible that these matters and/or other developments resulting from these matters could result in increased fund redemptions or other adverse consequences to the Portfolios. However, PIMCO and AGID believe that these matters are not likely to have a material adverse effect on the Portfolios or on PIMCO’s or AGID’s ability to perform their respective investment advisory or distribution services relating to the Portfolios.

Chairman’s Letter
Dear PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust Shareholder:
It is our pleasure to present to you the semiannual report for the PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust covering the six-month period ended June 30, 2006.
Highlights of the global bond markets during the six-month period included:
| n | | Most fixed-income sectors lost ground during the first half of 2006, as concern about accelerating inflation and central bank tightening pushed interest rates higher worldwide. The benchmark Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index (which includes Treasury, Investment-Grade Corporate, and Residential Mortgage-Backed Securities) returned -0.72% for the first six months of the year. On June 30, the benchmark ten-year Treasury yielded 5.14%, 0.75% higher than at the start of the year. The U.S. yield curve remained flat as shorter-maturity yields rose by a comparable amount. |
| n | | The Federal Reserve tightened four times during the reporting period, bringing the Federal Funds Rate to 5.25%. The increase near the end of the period was the Federal Reserve’s 17th consecutive rate hike since the start of its tightening cycle in 2004. The Federal Reserve was not alone, as central banks in Europe, India, and China tightened credit in unison for the first time since 2000. The Bank of Japan, whose zero-interest-rate policy has flooded global markets with liquidity, looked set to reverse this policy in the coming months. |
In these pages please find a more complete Portfolio review as it relates to financial-market activities, as well as details about total-return investment performance for the six-month reporting period. Thank you for the trust you have placed in us. We will continue to work diligently to meet your investment needs.
Sincerely,

Brent R. Harris
Chairman, PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust

Important Information About the Portfolios
PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust (the “Trust”) is an open-end investment company currently consisting of nineteen separate investment portfolios, including the Emerging Markets Bond Portfolio (the “Portfolio”). The Portfolio is only available as a funding vehicle under variable life insurance policies or variable annuity contracts issued by insurance companies (“Variable Contracts”). Individuals may not purchase shares of the Portfolio directly. Shares of the Portfolio also may be sold to qualified pension and retirement plans outside of the separate account context.
We believe that bond funds have an important role to play in a well diversified investment portfolio. It is important to note, however, that in an environment where interest rates may trend upward, rising rates would negatively impact the performance of most bond funds, and fixed-income securities held by a fund are likely to decrease in value. The price volatility of fixed-income securities can also increase during periods of rising interest rates resulting in increased losses to a fund. Bond funds and individual bonds with a longer duration (a measure of the expected life of a security) tend to be more sensitive to changes in interest rates, usually making them more volatile than securities or funds with shorter durations. The longer-term performance of most bond funds has benefited from capital gains in part resulting from an extended period of declining interest rates. In the event interest rates increase, these capital gains should not be expected to recur.
The Portfolio may be subject to various risks in addition to those described above. Some of these risks may include, but are not limited to, the following: credit risk, high yield risk, market risk, issuer risk, liquidity risk, derivatives risk, mortgage risk, non-U.S. investment risk, emerging markets risk, currency risk, issuer non-diversification risk, leveraging risk and management risk. A complete description of these risks is contained in the Portfolio’s prospectus. The Portfolio may use derivative instruments for hedging purposes or as part of an investment strategy. Use of these instruments may involve certain costs and risks such as liquidity risk, interest rate risk, market risk, credit risk, management risk and the risk that the Portfolio could not close out a position when it would be most advantageous to do so. A Portfolio investing in derivatives could lose more than the principal amount invested in these instruments. Investing in non-U.S. securities may entail risk due to non-U.S. economic and political developments; this risk may be increased when investing in emerging markets.
On the performance summary page in this Semiannual Report, the Total Return Investment Performance table measures performance assuming that all dividend and capital gain distributions were reinvested.
An investment in the Portfolio is not a deposit of a bank and is not guaranteed or insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. It is possible to lose money on investments in the Portfolio.
PIMCO has adopted written proxy voting policies and procedures (“Proxy Policy”) as required by Rule 206(4)-6 under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940. The Proxy Policy has been adopted by the Trust as the policies and procedures that PIMCO will use when voting proxies on behalf of the Portfolio. Copies of the written Proxy Policy and the factors that PIMCO may consider in determining how to vote proxies for the Portfolio, and information about how the Portfolio voted proxies relating to portfolio securities held during the most recent twelve-month period ended June 30, are available without charge, upon request, by calling the Trust at 1-866-746-2606 and on the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) website at http://www.sec.gov.
The Portfolio files its complete schedule of portfolio holdings with the SEC for the first and third quarters of each fiscal year on Form N-Q. A copy of the Trust’s Form N-Q is available on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov and may be reviewed and copied at the SEC’s Public Reference Room in Washington D.C. Information on the operation of the Public Reference Room may be obtained by calling 1-800-SEC-0330.
PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust is distributed by Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC, 2187 Atlantic Street, Stamford, CT 06902.

The following disclosure provides important information regarding the Portfolio’s Expense Example (“Example” or “Expense Example”), which appears in this Semiannual Report. Please refer to this information when reviewing the Expense Example for the Portfolio.
Example
As a shareholder of the Portfolio, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs and (2) ongoing costs, including advisory and administrative fees; distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees (Administrative Class only); and other Portfolio expenses. The Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Portfolio and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Expense Example does not reflect any fees or other expenses imposed by the Variable Contracts. If it did, the expenses reflected in the Expense Examples would be higher. The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period indicated, which is from January 1, 2006 to June 30, 2006.
Actual Expenses
The information in the table under the heading “Actual Performance” provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in these columns, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.60), then multiply the result by the number in the appropriate column for your share class, in the row titled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The information in the table under the heading “Hypothetical Performance (5% return before expenses)” provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Portfolio’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Portfolio’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Portfolio and other portfolios. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other portfolios.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs. Therefore, the information under the heading “Hypothetical Performance (5% return before expenses)” is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different portfolios. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.
The expense ratio may vary period to period because of various factors, such as an increase in expenses not covered by the advisory and administrative fees (such as expenses of the trustees and their counsel or litigation expense).

Past performance is no guarantee of future results. The performance quoted represents past performance. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that Fund shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. The Portfolio’s performance does not reflect the deduction of additional charges and expenses imposed in connection with investing in Variable Contracts, which will reduce returns. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. Performance data current to the most recent month-end is available by calling (800) 927-4648.

† Expenses are equal to the Portfolio’s Advisor Class annualized expense ratio of 1.15%, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 92/365 (to reflect the period since the Portfolio’s Advisor Class shares commenced operations on 03/31/06). Overall fees and expenses of investing in the Portfolio will be higher because the example does not reflect Variable Contract fees and expenses.

Portfolio Insights
» | | The PIMCO Emerging Markets Bond Portfolio seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing at least 80% of its assets in Fixed- Income Securities of issuers that economically are tied to countries with emerging securities markets. |
» | | An overweight position in Brazil was positive; Brazil outperformed the index on the back of external debt buybacks and ratings upgrades from S&P and Fitch. |
» | | An overweight to Ecuador was positive; debt buybacks, a high spread cushion and supportive crude oil prices helped to balance political noise. The Ecuador sub-index rallied strongly in Q1 and returned 8.04% for the past six months. |
» | | A significant underweight to Turkey was positive, especially in Q2, when Turkish spreads widened by 1.12%. Spread widening was due to worries about the country’s large current account deficit, a major sell-off in the lira, and an increasing inflation rate. |
» | | Despite the recent shift in risk tolerance, which favored strong credits over weak credits in Q2, an underweight to Argentina was negative for the first half of the year. The country posted a return of 17.9% for the Q1, as short covering and a search for yield outweighed investor concerns over mounting inflation. Year-to-date, the sub-index has returned 10.8%. |
» | | Underweighting the Philippines was negative; the country outperformed due to high levels of overseas remittances and news that the budget shortfall narrowed. |
» | | Above benchmark duration in Q1 was negative as U.S. Treasury rates rose. |
» | | An emphasis on shorter maturities was negative, as the yield curve continued to flatten in the past six months. |
» | | A strategic allocation to emerging market currencies was positive, as attractive carry via high local interest rates was high enough to offset weakness in some EM currencies. |

Notes to Financial Statements | | June 30, 2006 (Unaudited) |
1. ORGANIZATION
The Emerging Markets Bond Portfolio (the “Portfolio”) is a series of the PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust (the “Trust”). The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “Act”), as amended, as an open-end investment management company organized as a Delaware business trust on October 3, 1997. The Portfolio offers two classes of shares: Administrative and Advisor. Information presented in these financial statements pertains to the Advisor Class of the Portfolio. Certain detailed financial information for the Administrative Class is provided separately and is available upon request. The Trust is designed to be used as an investment vehicle by Separate Accounts of insurance companies that fund variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies and by qualified pension and retirement plans.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Portfolio in the preparation of its financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Security Valuation. Portfolio securities are valued as of the close of regular trading (normally 4:00 p.m., Eastern Time) on each day that the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) is open. Portfolio securities and other assets for which market quotes are readily available are stated at market value. Market value is generally determined on the basis of last reported sales prices, or if no sales are reported, based on quotes obtained from a quotation reporting system, established market makers, or pricing services. Fixed-income securities and non-exchange traded derivatives are normally valued on the basis of quotes obtained from brokers and dealers or pricing services. Prices obtained from independent pricing services use information provided by market makers or estimates of market values obtained from yield data relating to investments or securities with similar characteristics. Certain fixed-income securities purchased on a delayed-delivery basis are marked to market daily until settlement at the forward settlement date. Short-term investments having a maturity of 60 days or less are generally valued at amortized cost. Exchange traded options, futures and options on futures are valued at the settlement price determined by the relevant exchange.
Investments initially valued in currencies other than the U.S. dollar are converted to the U.S. dollar using exchange rates obtained from pricing services. As a result, the NAV of the Portfolio’s shares may be affected by changes in the value of currencies in relation to the U.S. dollar. The value of securities traded in markets outside the United States or denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar may be affected significantly on a day that the NYSE is closed and an investor is not able to purchase, redeem or exchange shares.
Securities and other assets for which market quotes are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction. The Board of Trustees has adopted methods for valuing securities and other assets in circumstances where market quotes are not readily available, and has delegated to Pacific Investment Management Company LLC (“PIMCO”) the responsibility for applying the valuation methods. In the event that market quotes are not readily available, and the security or asset cannot be valued pursuant to one of the valuation methods, the value of the security or asset will be determined in good faith by the Valuation Committee of the Board of Trustees, generally based upon recommendations provided by PIMCO.
Market quotes are considered not readily available in circumstances where there is an absence of current or reliable market-based data (e.g., trade information, bid/asked information, broker quotes), including where events occur after the close of the relevant market, but prior to the close of regular trading, that materially affect the values of the Portfolio’s securities or assets. In addition, market quotes are considered not readily available when, due to extraordinary circumstances, the exchanges or markets on which the securities trade do not open for trading for the entire day and no other market prices are available. The Board has delegated to PIMCO the responsibility for monitoring significant events that may materially affect the values of the Portfolio’s securities or assets and for determining whether the value of the applicable securities or assets should be re-evaluated in light of such significant events. When the Portfolio uses fair value pricing to determine its NAV, securities will not be priced on the basis of quotations from the primary market in which they are traded, but rather may be priced by another method that the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction believe accurately reflects fair value. The Trust’s policy is intended to result in a calculation of the Portfolio’s NAV that fairly reflects security values as of the time of pricing. However, fair values determined by the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction may not accurately reflect the price that the Portfolio could obtain for a security if it were to dispose of that security as of the time of pricing. Because foreign securities can trade on non-business days, the NAV of the Portfolio may change on days when shareholders will not be able to purchase or redeem shares. The prices used by the Portfolio may differ from the value that would be realized if the securities were sold and the differences could be material to the financial statements.
Securities Transactions and Investment Income. Securities transactions are recorded as of the trade date. Securities purchased or sold on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis may be settled a month or more after the trade date. Realized gains and losses from securities sold are recorded on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Portfolio is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, adjusted for the accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis. Paydown gains and losses on mortgage-related or asset-backed securities are recorded as components of interest income in the Statement of Operations.
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends from net investment income, if any, are declared on each day the Portfolio is open for business and are distributed to shareholders monthly. Net realized capital gains earned by the Portfolio, if any, will be distributed no less frequently than once each year. Most shareholders choose to reinvest their dividends and capital gain distribution in additional shares of the Portfolio.
Income dividends and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP. Differences between tax regulations and GAAP may change the fiscal year when income and capital items are recognized for tax and GAAP purposes. Examples of events that give rise to timing differences include wash sales, straddles, net operating losses and capital loss carryforwards. Further, the character of investment income and capital gains may be different for certain transactions under the two methods of accounting. Examples of characterization differences include the treatment of mortgage paydowns, swaps, foreign currency transactions and contingent debt instruments. As a result, income dividends and capital gain distributions declared during a fiscal period may differ significantly from the net investment income and realized capital gain reported in the Portfolio’s annual financial statements presented under GAAP.
Distributions classified as a tax basis return of capital, if any, are reflected in the accompanying Statements of Changes in Net Assets and have been reclassified to paid in capital. In addition, other amounts have been reclassified between undistributed net investment income, accumulated undistributed net realized gains or losses and/or paid in capital to more appropriately conform financial accounting to tax characterizations of dividend distributions.

Notes to Financial Statements (Cont.)
Loan Participations and Assignments. The Portfolio may invest in direct debt instruments which are interests in amounts owned by corporate, governmental, or other borrowers to lenders or lending syndicates. The Portfolio’s investments in loans may be in the form of participations in loans or assignments of all or a portion of loans from third parties. A loan is often administered by a bank or other financial institution (the “lender”) that acts as agent for all holders. The agent administers the terms of the loan, as specified in the loan agreement. When investing in a loan participation, the Portfolio has the right to receive payments of principal, interest and any fees to which it is entitled only from the lender selling the loan agreement and only upon receipt by the lender of payments from the borrower. The Portfolio generally has no right to enforce compliance with the terms of the loan agreement with the borrower. As a result, the Portfolio may be subject to the credit risk of both the borrower and the lender that is selling the loan agreement. When the Portfolio purchases assignments from lenders it acquires direct rights against the borrower on the loan. At the end of the period, the Portfolio had no unfunded loan commitments.
Delayed-Delivery Transactions. The Portfolio may purchase or sell securities on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis. These transactions involve a commitment by the Portfolio to purchase or sell securities for a predetermined price or yield, with payment and delivery taking place beyond the customary settlement period. When delayed-delivery purchases are outstanding, the Portfolio will designate liquid assets in an amount sufficient to meet the purchase price. When purchasing a security on a delayed-delivery basis, the Portfolio assumes the rights and risks of ownership of the security, including the risk of price and yield fluctuations, and takes such fluctuations into account when determining its net asset value. The Portfolio may dispose of or renegotiate a delayed-delivery transaction after it is entered into, and may sell when-issued securities before they are delivered, which may result in a capital gain or loss. When the Portfolio has sold a security on a delayed-delivery basis, the Portfolio does not participate in future gains and losses with respect to the security.
Federal Income Taxes. The Portfolio intends to qualify as a regulated investment company under sub-chapter M of the Internal Revenue Code and distribute all of its taxable income and net realized gains, if applicable, to shareholders. Accordingly, no provision for Federal income taxes has been made.
Foreign Currency. The accounting records of the Portfolio are maintained in U.S. dollar. The market values of foreign securities, currency holdings and other assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollar based on the current exchange rates each business day. Fluctuations in the value of currency holdings and other assets and liabilities resulting from changes in exchange rates are recorded as unrealized foreign currency gains or losses. Realized gains or losses and unrealized appreciation or depreciation on investment securities and income and expenses are translated on the respective dates of such transactions. The effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on investments in securities are not segregated in the Statement of Operations from the effects of changes in market prices of those securities, but are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss on investment securities.

Forward Currency Transactions. The Portfolio may enter into forward currency contracts in connection with settling planned purchases or sales of securities, to hedge the currency exposure associated with some or all of the Portfolio’s securities or as a part of an investment strategy. A forward currency contract is an agreement between two parties to buy and sell a currency at a set price on a future date. The market value of a forward currency contract fluctuates with changes in forward currency exchange rates. Forward currency contracts are marked to market daily and the change in value is recorded by the Portfolio as an unrealized gain or loss. Realized gains or losses equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed are recorded upon delivery or receipt of the currency or, if a forward currency contract is offset by entering into another forward currency contract with the same broker, upon settlement of the net gain or loss. These contracts may involve market risk in excess of the unrealized gain or loss reflected in the Portfolio’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities. In addition, the Portfolio could be exposed to risk if the counterparties are unable to meet the terms of the contracts or if the value of the currency changes unfavorably to the U.S. dollar
Futures Contracts. The Portfolio is authorized to enter into futures contracts. The Portfolio may use futures contracts to manage its exposure to the securities markets or to movements in interest rates and currency values. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are the imperfect correlation between the change in market value of the securities held by the Portfolio and the prices of futures contracts, the possibility of an illiquid market, and the inability of the counterparty to meet the terms of the contract. Futures contracts are valued based upon their quoted daily settlement prices. Upon entering into a futures contract, the Portfolio is required to deposit with its custodian, in a segregated account in the name of the futures broker, an amount of cash or U.S. Government and Agency Obligations in accordance with the initial margin requirements of the broker or exchange. Futures contracts are marked to market daily and an appropriate payable or receivable for the change in value (“variation margin”) is recorded by the Portfolio. Gains or losses are recognized but not considered realized until the contracts expire or are closed. Futures contracts involve, to varying degrees, risk of loss in excess of the variation margin disclosed in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
Options Contracts. The Portfolio may write call and put options on futures, swaps, securities or currencies it owns or in which it may invest. Writing put options tends to increase the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. Writing call options tends to decrease the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. When the Portfolio writes a call or put option, an amount equal to the premium received is recorded as a liability and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the option written. These liabilities are reflected as written options outstanding in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Certain options may be written with premiums to determined on a future date. The premiums for these options are based upon implied volatility parameters at specified terms. Premiums received from writing options which expire are treated as realized gains. Premiums received from writing options which are exercised or closed are added to the proceeds or offset against amounts paid on the underlying future, swap, security or currency transaction to determine the realized gain or loss. The Portfolio as a writer of an option has no control over whether the underlying future, swap, security or currency may be sold (call) or purchased (put) and as a result bears the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the future, swap, security or currency underlying the written option. There is the risk the Portfolio may not be able to enter into a closing transaction because of an illiquid market.
The Portfolio may also purchase put and call options. Purchasing call options tends to increase the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. Purchasing put options tends to decrease the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. The Portfolio pays a premium which is included in the Portfolio’s Statement of

Assets and Liabilities as an investment and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the option. Premiums paid for purchasing options which expire are treated as realized losses. Certain options may be purchased with premiums to be determined on a future date. The premiums for these options are based upon implied volatility parameters at specified terms. The risk associated with purchasing put and call options is limited to the premium paid. Premiums paid for purchasing options which are exercised or closed are added to the amounts paid or offset against the proceeds on the underlying future, swap, security or currency transaction to determine the realized gain or loss.
Repurchase Agreements. The Portfolio may engage in repurchase transactions. Under the terms of a typical repurchase agreement, the Portfolio takes possession of an underlying debt obligation subject to an obligation of the seller to repurchase, and the Portfolio to resell, the obligation at an agreed-upon price and time. The market value of the collateral must be equal to or exceed at all times the total amount of the repurchase obligations, including interest. Securities purchased under repurchase agreements are reflected as an asset in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Generally, in the event of counterparty default, the Portfolio has the right to use the collateral to offset losses incurred. If the counterparty should default, the Portfolio will seek to sell the securities which it holds as collateral. This could involve procedural costs or delays in addition to a loss on the securities if their value should fall below their repurchase price.
Swap Agreements. The Portfolio may engage in swap transactions, including, but not limited to, swap agreements on interest rate, total return, forward spread-lock and credit default to manage its exposure to interest rates and credit risk. In connection with these agreements, securities may be identified as collateral in accordance with the terms of the respective swap agreements.
Interest rate swap agreements involve the exchange by the Portfolio with another party of their respective commitments to pay or receive interest, e.g., an exchange of floating rate payments for fixed rate payments with respect to the notional amount of principal.
Credit default swap agreements involve one party making a stream of payments to another party in exchange for the right to receive a specified return in the event of a default by a third party, typically corporate issues or sovereign issues of an emerging country, on its obligation. The Portfolio may use credit default swaps to provide a measure of protection against defaults of the issuers (i.e., to reduce risk where the Portfolio owns or has exposure to the sovereign issuer) or to take an active long or short position with respect to the likelihood of a particular issuer’s default. As a seller of protection, the Portfolio generally receives an upfront payment or a fixed rate of income throughout the term of the swap provided that there is no credit event. If the Portfolio is a seller of protection and a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement, the Portfolio will pay to the buyer of the protection an amount up to the notional value of the swap and in certain instances take delivery of the security. As the seller, the Portfolio would effectively add leverage to its portfolio because, in addition to its total net assets, the Portfolio would be subject to investment exposure on the notional amount of the swap. As a buyer of protection, the Portfolio generally receives an amount up to the notional value of the swap if a credit event occurs. The treatment of a credit default swaps and other swap agreements that provide for contingent, non-periodic, bullet-type payments as “notional principal contracts” for federal income tax purposes is uncertain. Were the Internal Revenue Service in take the position that a credit default swap or other bullet-type swap is not a “notional principal contract” for federal income tax purposes, payments received by the Portfolio from such investments might be subject to income taxes.
Swaps are marked to market daily based upon quotations from market makers and the change in value, if any, is recorded as unrealized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Payments received or made at the beginning of the measurement period are reflected as such in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. These upfront payments are recorded as realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations upon termination or maturity of the swap. A liquidation payment received or made at the termination of the swap is recorded as realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Net periodic payments received by the Portfolio are included as part of realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Entering into these agreements involves, to varying degrees, elements of credit, market and documentation risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Such risks involve the possibility that there will be no liquid market for these agreements, that the counterparty to the agreements may default on its obligation to perform or disagree as to the meaning of contractual terms in the agreements and that there may be unfavorable changes in interest rates.
Guarantees and Indemnifications. Under the Trust’s organizational documents, each Trustee, officer, employee or other agent of the Trust (including the Trust’s investment manager) is indemnified against certain liabilities that may arise out of performance of their duties to the Portfolio. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Portfolio enters into contracts that contain a variety of indemnification clauses. The Portfolio’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Portfolio that have not yet occurred. However, the Portfolio has not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts, and believes the risk of loss to be remote.
New Accounting Policies. In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes—an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (the “Interpretation”). The Interpretation is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. Management is currently evaluating the application of the Interpretation to the Portfolio and will provide additional information in relation to the Interpretation in the Portfolio’s annual financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2006.
3. FEES, EXPENSES, AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Investment Advisory Fee. PIMCO is a majority-owned subsidiary of Allianz Global Investors of America L.P. (“AGI”), and serves as investment adviser (the “Adviser”) to the Trust, pursuant to an investment advisory contract. The Adviser receives a monthly fee at an annual rate based on average daily net assets of the Portfolio. The Advisory Fee is charged at an annual rate of 0.45%.
Administration Fee. PIMCO serves as administrator (the “Administrator”), and provides administrative services to the Trust for which it receives a monthly administrative fee based on average daily net assets of the Portfolio. As the Administrator, PIMCO bears the costs of various third-party services, including audit, custodial, portfolio accounting, legal, transfer agency and printing costs. The Administration Fee is charged at the annual rate of 0.40%.
Distribution and Servicing Fees. Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC (“AGID”) is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of AGI and serves as the distributor of the Trust’s shares. The Trust is permitted to reimburse AGID on a quarterly basis, out of the Administrative Class assets of the Portfolio in the amount of 0.15% on an annual basis of the average daily net assets of that class, for payments made to financial intermediaries that provide services in connection with the distribution of shares or administration of plans or programs that use Portfolio shares as their funding medium. The effective rate paid to AGID was 0.15% during the current fiscal year.
Expenses. The Trust is responsible for the following expenses: (i) salaries and other compensation of any of the Trust’s executive officers and employees who are not officers, directors, stockholders or employees of PIMCO or its subsidiaries or affiliates; (ii) taxes and governmental fees; (iii) brokerage fees and commissions and other portfolio transaction expenses; (iv) the costs of borrowing money,
| | | | | | |
| | Semiannual Report | | June 30, 2006 | | 15 |
Notes to Financial Statements (Cont.)
including interest expenses and bank overdraft charges; (v) fees and expenses of the Trustees who are not “interested persons” of PIMCO or the Trust, and any counsel retained exclusively for their benefit; (vi) extraordinary expenses, including costs of litigation and indemnification expenses; (vii) organization expenses and (viii) any expenses allocated or allocable to a specific class of shares, which include service fees payable with respect to the Administrative Class shares and may include certain other expenses as permitted by the Trust’s Multiple Class Plan adopted pursuant to Rule 18f-3 under the Act and subject to review and approval by the Trustees. The ratio of expenses to average net assets per share class, as disclosed in the Financial Highlights, may differ from the annual portfolio operating expenses per share class as disclosed in the Prospectus for the reasons set forth above.
For the current period ended June 30, 2006, each unaffiliated Trustee received an annual retainer of $15,000, plus $2,000 for each Board of Trustees quarterly meeting attended, $500 for each Board of Trustees committee meeting attended and $500 for each special board meeting attended, plus reimbursement of related expenses. In addition, each Committee Chair received an additional annual retainer of $500 and each Audit Committee Chair received an additional annual retainer of $1,500. These expenses are allocated on a pro-rata basis to each Portfolio of the Trust according to its respective net assets. The Trust pays no compensation directly to any Trustee or any other officer who is affiliated with the Administrator, all of whom receive remuneration for their services to the Trust from the Administrator or its affiliates.
4. PURCHASES AND SALES OF SECURITIES
The length of time the Portfolio has held a particular security is not generally a consideration in investment decisions. A change in the securities held by the Portfolio is known as “portfolio turnover”. The Portfolio may engage in frequent and active trading of portfolio securities to achieve its investment objective, particularly during periods of volatile market movements. High portfolio turnover (e.g., over 100%) involves correspondingly greater expenses to the Portfolio, including brokerage commissions or dealer mark-ups and other transaction costs on the sale of securities and reinvestments in other securities. Such sales may also result in realization of taxable capital gains, including short-term capital gains (which are generally taxed at ordinary income tax rates). The trading costs and tax effects associated with portfolio turnover may adversely affect the Portfolio’s performance.
Purchases and sales of securities (excluding short-term investments) for the period ended June 30, 2006 were as follows (amounts in thousands):

8. REGULATORY AND LITIGATION MATTERS
On June 1, 2004, the Attorney General of the State of New Jersey announced that it had dismissed PIMCO from a complaint filed by the New Jersey Attorney General on February 17, 2004, and that it had entered into a settlement agreement (the “New Jersey Settlement”) with Allianz Global Investors of America L.P. (“AGI”) (formerly known as Allianz Dresdner Asset Management of America L.P.), PEA Capital LLC (an entity affiliated with PIMCO through common ownership) (“PEA”) and Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC (“AGID”), in connection with the same matter. In the New Jersey Settlement, AGI, PEA and AGID neither admitted nor denied the allegations or conclusions of law, but did agree to pay New Jersey a civil fine of $15 million and $3 million for investigative costs and further potential enforcement initiatives against unrelated parties. They also undertook to implement certain governance changes. The complaint relating to the New Jersey Settlement alleged, among other things, that AGI, PEA and AGID had failed to disclose that they improperly allowed certain hedge funds to engage in
| | | | |
16 | | PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust | | |
| | |
| |
| | June 30, 2006 (Unaudited) |
“market timing” in certain funds. The complaint sought injunctive relief, civil monetary penalties, restitution and disgorgement of profits.
Since February 2004, PIMCO, AGI, PEA, AGID, and certain of their affiliates, including the PIMCO Funds, the Allianz Funds (formerly known as PIMCO Funds: Multi-Manager Series), and the Trustees and employees of the PIMCO Funds, have been named as defendants in fifteen lawsuits filed in various jurisdictions. Eleven of those lawsuits concern “market timing,” and they have been transferred to and consolidated for pre-trial proceedings in a multi-district litigation proceeding in the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland; the other four lawsuits concern “revenue sharing” and have been consolidated into a single action in the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut. The lawsuits have been commenced as putative class actions on behalf of investors who purchased, held or redeemed shares of the various series of the PIMCO Funds and the Allianz Funds during specified periods, or as derivative actions on behalf of the PIMCO Funds and Allianz Funds.
The market timing actions in the District of Maryland generally allege that certain hedge funds were allowed to engage in “market timing” in certain of the PIMCO Funds and the Allianz Funds and this alleged activity was not disclosed. Pursuant to tolling agreements entered into with the derivative and class action plaintiffs, PIMCO, the Trustees, and certain employees of PIMCO who were previously named as defendants have all been dropped as defendants in the market timing actions; the plaintiffs continue to assert claims on behalf of the shareholders of the PIMCO Funds or on behalf of the PIMCO Funds themselves against other defendants. By order dated November 3, 2005, the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland granted the PIMCO Funds’ motion to dismiss claims asserted against it in a consolidated amended complaint where the PIMCO Funds were named, in the complaint, as a nominal defendant. The revenue sharing action in the District of Connecticut generally alleges that fund assets were inappropriately used to pay brokers to promote the PIMCO Funds and Allianz Funds, including directing fund brokerage transactions to such brokers, and that such alleged arrangements were not fully disclosed to shareholders. On August 11, 2005 the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut conducted a hearing on defendants’ motion to dismiss the consolidated amended complaint in the revenue sharing action but has not yet ruled on the motion to dismiss. The market timing and revenue sharing lawsuits seek, among other things, unspecified compensatory damages plus interest and, in some cases, punitive damages, the rescission of investment advisory contracts, the return of fees paid under those contracts and restitution.
Under Section 9(a) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“1940 Act”), if the New Jersey Settlement or any of the lawsuits described above were to result in a court injunction against AGI, PEA, AGID and/or their affiliates, PIMCO could, in the absence of exemptive relief granted by the SEC, be barred from serving as an investment adviser, and AGID could be barred from serving as principal underwriter, to any registered investment company, including the Portfolios of the Trust. In connection with an inquiry from the SEC concerning the status of the New Jersey Settlement under Section 9(a), PEA, AGID, AGI and certain of their affiliates (including PIMCO) (together, the “Applicants”) have sought exemptive relief from the SEC under Section 9(c) of the 1940 Act. The SEC has granted the Applicants a temporary exemption from the provisions of Section 9(a) with respect to the New Jersey Settlement until the earlier of (i) September 13, 2006 and (ii) the date on which the SEC takes final action on their application for a permanent order. There is no assurance that the SEC will issue a permanent order.
Two nearly identical class action civil complaints have been filed in August 2005, in the Northern District of Illinois Eastern Division alleging that the plaintiffs each purchased and sold a 10-year Treasury note futures contract and suffered damages from an alleged shortage when PIMCO held both physical and futures positions in 10-year Treasury notes for its client accounts. The two actions have been consolidated into one action, and the two separate complaints have been replaced by a consolidated complaint. PIMCO is a named defendant, and the PIMCO Funds have been added as a defendant, to the consolidated action. PIMCO strongly believes the complaint (and any consolidated complaint filed hereafter) is without merit and intends to vigorously defend itself.
Certain Portfolios of the Trust were recently served in an adversary proceeding brought by the Official Committee of Asbestos Claimants of G-I Holdings, Inc. in G-I Holdings, Inc.’s bankruptcy in the District of New Jersey. PIMCO was previously named in this lawsuit and remains a defendant. The plaintiff seeks to recover for the bankruptcy estate assets that were transferred by the predecessor entity of G-I Holdings, Inc. to a wholly-owned subsidiary in 1994. The subsidiary has since issued notes, of which certain Portfolios of the Trust are alleged to be holders. The complaint alleges that in 2000, more than two hundred noteholders —including certain Portfolios of the Trust—were granted a second priority lien on the assets of the subsidiary in exchange for their consent to a refinancing transaction and the granting of a first priority lien to the lending banks. The plaintiff is seeking invalidation of the lien in favor of the noteholders and/or the value of the lien.
It is possible that these matters and/or other developments resulting from these matters could result in increased fund redemptions or other adverse consequences to the Portfolios. However, PIMCO and AGID believe that these matters are not likely to have a material adverse effect on the Portfolios or on PIMCO’s or AGID’s ability to perform their respective investment advisory or distribution services relating to the Portfolios.

Chairman’s Letter
Dear PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust Shareholder:
It is our pleasure to present to you the semiannual report for the PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust covering the six-month period ended June 30, 2006.
Highlights of the global bond markets during the six-month period included:
| n | | Most fixed-income sectors lost ground during the first half of 2006, as concern about accelerating inflation and central bank tightening pushed interest rates higher worldwide. The benchmark Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index (which includes Treasury, Investment-Grade Corporate, and Residential Mortgage-Backed Securities) returned -0.72% for the first six months of the year. On June 30, the benchmark ten-year Treasury yielded 5.14%, 0.75% higher than at the start of the year. The U.S. yield curve remained flat as shorter-maturity yields rose by a comparable amount. |
| n | | The Federal Reserve tightened four times during the reporting period, bringing the Federal Funds Rate to 5.25%. The increase near the end of the period was the Federal Reserve’s 17th consecutive rate hike since the start of its tightening cycle in 2004. The Federal Reserve was not alone, as central banks in Europe, India, and China tightened credit in unison for the first time since 2000. The Bank of Japan, whose zero-interest-rate policy has flooded global markets with liquidity, looked set to reverse this policy in the coming months. |
In these pages please find a more complete Portfolio review as it relates to financial-market activities, as well as details about total-return investment performance for the six-month reporting period. Thank you for the trust you have placed in us. We will continue to work diligently to meet your investment needs.
Sincerely,

Brent R. Harris
Chairman, PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust

Important Information About the Portfolio
PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust (the “Trust”) is an open-end management investment company currently consisting of nineteen separate investment portfolios, including the Foreign Bond Portfolio (U.S. Dollar-Hedged) (the “Portfolio”). The Portfolio is only available as a funding vehicle under variable life insurance policies or variable annuity contracts issued by insurance companies (“Variable Contracts”). Individuals may not purchase shares of the Portfolio directly. Shares of the Portfolio also may be sold to qualified pension and retirement plans outside of the separate account context.
We believe that bond funds have an important role to play in a well diversified investment portfolio. It is important to note, however, that in an environment where interest rates may trend upward, rising rates would negatively impact the performance of most bond funds, and fixed-income securities held by a fund are likely to decrease in value. The price volatility of fixed-income securities can also increase during periods of rising interest rates resulting in increased losses to a fund. Bond funds and individual bonds with a longer duration (a measure of the expected life of a security) tend to be more sensitive to changes in interest rates, usually making them more volatile than securities or funds with shorter durations. The longer-term performance of most bond funds has benefited from capital gains in part resulting from an extended period of declining interest rates. In the event interest rates increase, these capital gains should not be expected to recur.
The Portfolio may be subject to various risks in addition to those described above. Some of these risks may include, but are not limited to, the following: credit risk, high yield risk, market risk, issuer risk, liquidity risk, derivatives risk, mortgage risk, non-U.S. investment risk, currency risk, issuer non-diversification risk, leveraging risk and management risk. A complete description of these risks is contained in the Portfolio’s prospectus. The Portfolio may use derivative instruments for hedging purposes or as part of an investment strategy. Use of these instruments may involve certain costs and risks such as liquidity risk, interest rate risk, market risk, credit risk, management risk and the risk that the Portfolio could not close out a position when it would be most advantageous to do so. A Portfolio investing in derivatives could lose more than the principal amount invested in these instruments. Investing in non-U.S. securities may entail risk due to non-U.S. economic and political developments; this risk may be increased when investing in emerging markets.
On the performance summary page in this Semiannual Report, the Total Return Investment Performance table measures performance assuming that all dividend and capital gain distributions were reinvested.
An investment in the Portfolio is not a deposit of a bank and is not guaranteed or insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. It is possible to lose money on investments in the Portfolio.
PIMCO has adopted written proxy voting policies and procedures (“Proxy Policy”) as required by Rule 206(4)-6 under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940. The Proxy Policy has been adopted by the Trust as the policies and procedures that PIMCO will use when voting proxies on behalf of the Portfolio. Copies of the written Proxy Policy and the factors that PIMCO may consider in determining how to vote proxies for the Portfolio, and information about how the Portfolio voted proxies relating to portfolio securities held during the most recent twelve-month period ended June 30, are available without charge, upon request, by calling the Trust at 1-866-746-2606 and on the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) website at http://www.sec.gov.
The Portfolio files its complete schedule of portfolio holdings with the SEC for the first and third quarters of each fiscal year on Form N-Q. A copy of the Trust’s Form N-Q is available on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov and may be reviewed and copied at the SEC’s Public Reference Room in Washington D.C. Information on the operation of the Public Reference Room may be obtained by calling 1-800-SEC-0330.

The following disclosure provides important information regarding the Portfolio’s Expense Example (“Example” or “Expense Example”), which appears in this Semiannual Report. Please refer to this information when reviewing the Expense Example for the Portfolio.
Example
As a shareholder of the Portfolio, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs and (2) ongoing costs, including advisory and administrative fees; distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees (Administrative Class only); and other Portfolio expenses. The Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Portfolio and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Expense Example does not reflect any fees or other expenses imposed by the Variable Contracts. If it did, the expenses reflected in the Expense Examples would be higher. The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period indicated, which is from January 1, 2006 to June 30, 2006.
Actual Expenses
The information in the table under the heading “Actual Performance” provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in these columns, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.60), then multiply the result by the number in the appropriate column for your share class, in the row titled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The information in the table under the heading “Hypothetical Performance (5% return before expenses)” provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Portfolio’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Portfolio’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Portfolio and other portfolios. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other portfolios.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs. Therefore, the information under the heading “Hypothetical Performance (5% return before expenses)” is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different portfolios. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.
The expense ratio may vary period to period because of various factors, such as an increase in expenses not covered by the advisory and administrative fees (such as expenses of the trustees and their counsel or litigation expense).

Past performance is no guarantee of future results. The performance quoted represents past performance. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so the Portfolio shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. The Portfolio’s performance does not reflect the deduction of additional charges and expenses imposed in connection with investing in Variable Contracts, which will reduce returns. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. Performance data current to the most recent month-end is available by calling (800) 927-4648.

Expenses Paid During Period† | | | | $ | 4.45 | | | | $ | 4.51 |
† Expenses are equal to the Portfolio’s Administrative Class annualized expense ratio of 0.90%, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 181/365 (to reflect the one-half year period). Overall fees and expenses of investing in the Portfolio will be higher because the example does not reflect Variable Contract fees and expenses.

Portfolio Insights
» | | The PIMCO Foreign Bond Portfolio (U.S. Dollar-Hedged) seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing under normal circumstances at least 80% of its assets in Fixed-Income Instruments of issuers located outside the United States, representing at least three foreign countries, which may be represented by futures contracts (including related options) with respect to such securities, and options on such securities. |
» | | An underweight to Euroland duration and a curve flattening bias added to returns as these yields rose on stronger than expected economic data and hawkish European Central Bank comments. |
» | | An overweight to U.S. duration and an emphasis on shorter maturities detracted from returns, as rates rose and the yield curve continued to flatten amid concern that the Federal Reserve would extend its tightening cycle. |
» | | An emphasis on mortgage-backed securities was positive for performance as mortgages outperformed like-duration Treasuries amidst declining volatility and heightened investor demand. |
» | | A focus on the short-to-intermediate portion of the U.K. curve was negative for returns as U.K. long-dated gilts outperformed on firmer demand for longer dated assets. |
» | | A long position in the Euro and the Yen versus the U.S. dollar was positive for returns as the Euro and the Yen appreciated on improving growth and expectations of monetary tightening. |

Notes to Financial Statements | | June 30, 2006 (Unaudited) |
1. ORGANIZATION
The Foreign Bond Portfolio U.S. Dollar-Hedged (the “Portfolio”) is a series of the PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust (the “Trust”). The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “Act”), as amended, as an open-end investment management company organized as a Delaware business trust on October 3, 1997. The Portfolio offers two classes of shares: Institutional and Administrative. Information presented in these financial statements pertains to the Administrative Class of the Portfolio. Certain detailed financial information for the Institutional Class is provided separately and is available upon request. The Trust is designed to be used as an investment vehicle by Separate Accounts of insurance companies that fund variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies and by qualified pension and retirement plans.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Portfolio in the preparation of its financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Security Valuation. Portfolio securities are valued as of the close of regular trading (normally 4:00 p.m., Eastern Time) on each day that the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) is open. Portfolio securities and other assets for which market quotes are readily available are stated at market value. Market value is generally determined on the basis of last reported sales prices, or if no sales are reported, based on quotes obtained from a quotation reporting system, established market makers, or pricing services. Fixed-income securities and non-exchange traded derivatives are normally valued on the basis of quotes obtained from brokers and dealers or pricing services. Prices obtained from independent pricing services use information provided by market makers or estimates of market values obtained from yield data relating to investments or securities with similar characteristics. Certain fixed-income securities purchased on a delayed-delivery basis are marked to market daily until settlement at the forward settlement date. Short-term investments having a maturity of 60 days or less are generally valued at amortized cost. Exchange traded options, futures and options on futures are valued at the settlement price determined by the relevant exchange.
Investments initially valued in currencies other than the U.S. dollar are converted to the U.S. dollar using exchange rates obtained from pricing services. As a result, the NAV of the Portfolio’s shares may be affected by changes in the value of currencies in relation to the U.S. dollar. The value of securities traded in markets outside the United States or denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar may be affected significantly on a day that the NYSE is closed and an investor is not able to purchase, redeem or exchange shares.
Securities and other assets for which market quotes are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction. The Board of Trustees has adopted methods for valuing securities and other assets in circumstances where market quotes are not readily available, and has delegated to Pacific Investment Management Company LLC (“PIMCO”) the responsibility for applying the valuation methods. In the event that market quotes are not readily available, and the security or asset cannot be valued pursuant to one of the valuation methods, the value of the security or asset will be determined in good faith by the Valuation Committee of the Board of Trustees, generally based upon recommendations provided by PIMCO.
Market quotes are considered not readily available in circumstances where there is an absence of current or reliable market-based data (e.g., trade information, bid/asked information, broker quotes), including where events occur after the close of the relevant market, but prior to the close of regular trading, that materially affect the values of the Portfolio’s securities or assets. In addition, market quotes are considered not readily available when, due to extraordinary circumstances, the exchanges or markets on which the securities trade do not open for trading for the entire day and no other market prices are available. The Board has delegated to PIMCO the responsibility for monitoring significant events that may materially affect the values of the Portfolio’s securities or assets and for determining whether the value of the applicable securities or assets should be re-evaluated in light of such significant events. When the Portfolio uses fair value pricing to determine its NAV, securities will not be priced on the basis of quotations from the primary market in which they are traded, but rather may be priced by another method that the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction believe accurately reflects fair value. The Trust’s policy is intended to result in a calculation of the Portfolio’s NAV that fairly reflects security values as of the time of pricing. However, fair values determined by the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction may not accurately reflect the price that the Portfolio could obtain for a security if it were to dispose of that security as of the time of pricing. Because foreign securities can trade on non-business days, the NAV of the Portfolio may change on days when shareholders will not be able to purchase or redeem shares. The prices used by the Portfolio may differ from the value that would be realized if the securities were sold and the differences could be material to the financial statements.
Securities Transactions and Investment Income. Securities transactions are recorded as of the trade date. Securities purchased or sold on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis may be settled a month or more after the trade date. Realized gains and losses from securities sold are recorded on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Portfolio is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, adjusted for the accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis. Paydown gains and losses on mortgage-related or asset-backed securities are recorded as components of interest income in the Statement of Operations.
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends from net investment income, if any, are declared on each day the Portfolio is open for business and are distributed to shareholders monthly. Net realized capital gains earned by the Portfolio, if any, will be distributed no less frequently than once each year. Most shareholders choose to reinvest their dividends and capital gain distribution in additional shares of the Portfolio.
Income dividends and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP. Differences between tax regulations and GAAP may change the fiscal year when income and capital items are recognized for tax and GAAP purposes. Examples of events that give rise to timing differences include wash sales, straddles, net operating losses and capital loss carryforwards. Further, the character of investment income and capital gains may be different for certain transactions under the two methods of accounting. Examples of characterization differences include the treatment of mortgage paydowns, swaps, foreign currency transactions and contingent debt instruments. As a result, income dividends and capital gain distributions declared during a fiscal period may differ significantly from the net investment income and realized capital gain reported in the Portfolio’s annual financial statements presented under GAAP.

Notes to Financial Statements (Cont.)
Distributions classified as a tax basis return of capital, if any, are reflected in the accompanying Statements of Changes in Net Assets and have been reclassified to paid in capital. In addition, other amounts have been reclassified between undistributed net investment income, accumulated undistributed net realized gains or losses and/or paid in capital to more appropriately conform financial accounting to tax characterizations of dividend distributions.
Multiclass Operations. Each class offered by the Portfolio has equal rights as to assets and voting privileges (except that shareholders of a class have exclusive voting rights regarding any matter relating solely to that class of shares). Income and non-class specific expenses of the Portfolio are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative value of settled shares. Realized and unrealized capital gains and losses of the Portfolio are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative net assets of each class. Class specific expenses, where applicable, currently include administrative, distribution and servicing fees.
Loan Participations and Assignments. The Portfolio may invest in direct debt instruments which are interests in amounts owned by corporate, governmental, or other borrowers to lenders or lending syndicates. The Portfolio’s investments in loans may be in the form of participations in loans or assignments of all or a portion of loans from third parties. A loan is often administered by a bank or other financial institution (the “lender”) that acts as agent for all holders. The agent administers the terms of the loan, as specified in the loan agreement. When investing in a loan participation, the Portfolio has the right to receive payments of principal, interest and any fees to which it is entitled only from the lender selling the loan agreement and only upon receipt by the lender of payments from the borrower. The Portfolio generally has no right to enforce compliance with the terms of the loan agreement with the borrower. As a result, the Portfolio may be subject to the credit risk of both the borrower and the lender that is selling the loan agreement. When the Portfolio purchases assignments from lenders it acquires direct rights against the borrower on the loan. At the end of the period, the Portfolio had no unfunded loan commitments.
Delayed-Delivery Transactions. The Portfolio may purchase or sell securities on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis. These transactions involve a commitment by the Portfolio to purchase or sell securities for a predetermined price or yield, with payment and delivery taking place beyond the customary settlement period. When delayed-delivery purchases are outstanding, the Portfolio will designate liquid assets in an amount sufficient to meet the purchase price. When purchasing a security on a delayed-delivery basis, the Portfolio assumes the rights and risks of ownership of the security, including the risk of price and yield fluctuations, and takes such fluctuations into account when determining its net asset value. The Portfolio may dispose of or renegotiate a delayed-delivery transaction after it is entered into, and may sell when-issued securities before they are delivered, which may result in a capital gain or loss. When the Portfolio has sold a security on a delayed-delivery basis, the Portfolio does not participate in future gains and losses with respect to the security.
Federal Income Taxes. The Portfolio intends to qualify as a regulated investment company under sub-chapter M of the Internal Revenue Code and distribute all of its taxable income and net realized gains, if applicable, to shareholders. Accordingly, no provision for Federal income taxes has been made.
Foreign Currency. The accounting records of the Portfolio are maintained in U.S. dollar. The market values of foreign securities, currency holdings and other assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollar based on the current exchange rates each business day. Fluctuations in the value of currency holdings and other assets and liabilities resulting from changes in exchange rates are recorded as unrealized foreign currency gains or losses. Realized gains or losses and unrealized appreciation or depreciation on investment securities and income and expenses are translated on the respective dates of such transactions. The effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on investments in securities are not segregated in the Statement of Operations from the effects of changes in market prices of those securities, but are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss on investment securities.

Forward Currency Transactions. The Portfolio may enter into forward currency contracts in connection with settling planned purchases or sales of securities, to hedge the currency exposure associated with some or all of the Portfolio’s securities or as a part of an investment strategy. A forward currency contract is an agreement between two parties to buy and sell a currency at a set price on a future date. The market value of a forward currency contract fluctuates with changes in forward currency exchange rates. Forward currency contracts are marked to market daily and the change in value is recorded by the Portfolio as an unrealized gain or loss. Realized gains or losses equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed are recorded upon delivery or receipt of the currency or, if a forward currency contract is offset by entering into another forward currency contract with the same broker, upon settlement of the net gain or loss. These contracts may involve market risk in excess of the unrealized gain or loss reflected in the Portfolio’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities. In addition, the Portfolio could be exposed to risk if the counterparties are unable to meet the terms of the contracts or if the value of the currency changes unfavorably to the U.S. dollar.
Futures Contracts. The Portfolio is authorized to enter into futures contracts. The Portfolio may use futures contracts to manage its exposure to the securities markets or to movements in interest rates and currency values. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are the imperfect correlation between the change in market value of the securities held by the Portfolio and the prices of futures contracts, the possibility of an illiquid market, and the inability of the counterparty to meet the terms of the contract. Futures contracts are valued based upon their quoted daily settlement prices. Upon entering into a futures contract, the Portfolio is required to deposit with its custodian, in a segregated account in the name of the futures broker, an amount of cash or U.S. Government and Agency Obligations in accordance with the initial margin requirements of the broker or exchange. Futures contracts are marked to market daily and an appropriate payable or receivable for the change in value (“variation margin”) is recorded by the Portfolio. Gains or losses are recognized but not considered realized until the contracts expire or are closed. Futures contracts involve, to varying degrees, risk of loss in excess of the variation margin disclosed in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
Inflation-Indexed Bonds. The Portfolio may invest in inflation-indexed bonds. Inflation-indexed bonds are fixed-income securities whose principal value is periodically adjusted to the rate of inflation. The interest rate on these bonds is generally fixed at issuance at a rate lower than typical bonds. Over the life of an
| | | | |

| | |
| |
| | June 30, 2006 (Unaudited) |
inflation-indexed bond, however, interest will be paid based on a principal value, which is adjusted for inflation. Any increase in the principal amount of an inflation-indexed bond will be included as interest income in the Statement of Operations, even though investors do not receive their principal until maturity.
Options Contracts. The Portfolio may write call and put options on futures, swaps, securities or currencies it owns or in which it may invest. Writing put options tends to increase the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. Writing call options tends to decrease the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. When the Portfolio writes a call or put option, an amount equal to the premium received is recorded as a liability and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the option written. These liabilities are reflected as written options outstanding in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Certain options may be written with premiums to determined on a future date. The premiums for these options are based upon implied volatility parameters at specified terms. Premiums received from writing options which expire are treated as realized gains. Premiums received from writing options which are exercised or closed are added to the proceeds or offset against amounts paid on the underlying future, swap, security or currency transaction to determine the realized gain or loss. The Portfolio as a writer of an option has no control over whether the underlying future, swap, security or currency may be sold (call) or purchased (put) and as a result bears the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the future, swap, security or currency underlying the written option. There is the risk the Portfolio may not be able to enter into a closing transaction because of an illiquid market.
The Portfolio may also purchase put and call options. Purchasing call options tends to increase the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. Purchasing put options tends to decrease the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. The Portfolio pays a premium which is included in the Portfolio’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an investment and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the option. Premiums paid for purchasing options which expire are treated as realized losses. Certain options may be purchased with premiums to be determined on a future date. The premiums for these options are based upon implied volatility parameters at specified terms. The risk associated with purchasing put and call options is limited to the premium paid. Premiums paid for purchasing options which are exercised or closed are added to the amounts paid or offset against the proceeds on the underlying future, swap, security or currency transaction to determine the realized gain or loss.
Repurchase Agreements. The Portfolio may engage in repurchase transactions. Under the terms of a typical repurchase agreement, the Portfolio takes possession of an underlying debt obligation subject to an obligation of the seller to repurchase, and the Portfolio to resell, the obligation at an agreed-upon price and time. The market value of the collateral must be equal to or exceed at all times the total amount of the repurchase obligations, including interest. Securities purchased under repurchase agreements are reflected as an asset in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Generally, in the event of counterparty default, the Portfolio has the right to use the collateral to offset losses incurred. If the counterparty should default, the Portfolio will seek to sell the securities which it holds as collateral. This could involve procedural costs or delays in addition to a loss on the securities if their value should fall below their repurchase price.
Mortgage-Related and Other Asset-Backed Securities. The Portfolio may invest in mortgage-related or other asset-backed securities. These securities include mortgage pass-through securities, collateralized mortgage obligations (“CMOs”), commercial mortgage-backed securities, mortgage dollar rolls, CMO residuals, stripped mortgage-backed securities (“SMBSs”) and other securities that directly or indirectly represent a participation in, or are secured by and payable from, mortgage loans on real property. The value of some mortgage- or asset-backed securities may be particularly sensitive to changes in prevailing interest rates. Early repayment of principal on some mortgage-related securities may expose a Portfolio to a lower rate of return upon reinvestment of principal. The value of these securities may fluctuate in response to the market’s perception of the creditworthiness of the issuers. Additionally, although mortgages and mortgage-related securities are generally supported by some form of government or private guarantee and/or insurance, there is no assurance that private guarantors or insurers will meet their obligations.
One type of SMBS has one class receiving all of the interest from the mortgage assets (the interest-only, or “IO” class), while the other class will receive all of the principal (the principal-only, or “PO” class). Payments received for IOs are included in interest income in the Statement of Operations. Because principal will not be received at the maturity of an IO, adjustments are made to the book value of the security on a daily basis until maturity. These adjustments are included in interest income in the Statement of Operations. Payments received for POs are treated as reductions to the cost and par value of the securities.
Swap Agreements. The Portfolio may engage in swap transactions, including, but not limited to, swap agreements on interest rate and credit default to manage its exposure to interest rates and credit risk. In connection with these agreements, securities may be identified as collateral in accordance with the terms of the respective swap agreements.
Interest rate swap agreements involve the exchange by the Portfolio with another party of their respective commitments to pay or receive interest, e.g., an exchange of floating rate payments for fixed rate payments with respect to the notional amount of principal.
Credit default swap agreements involve one party making a stream of payments to another party in exchange for the right to receive a specified return in the event of a default by a third party, typically corporate issues or sovereign issues of an emerging country, on its obligation. The Portfolio may use credit default swaps to provide a measure of protection against defaults of the issuers (i.e., to reduce risk where the Portfolio owns or has exposure to the sovereign issuer) or to take an active long or short position with respect to the likelihood of a particular issuer’s default. As a seller of protection, the Portfolio generally receives an upfront payment or a fixed rate of income throughout the term of the swap provided that there is no credit event. If the Portfolio is a seller of protection and a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement, the Portfolio will pay to the buyer of the protection an amount up to the notional value of the swap and in certain instances take delivery of the security. As the seller, the Portfolio would effectively add leverage to its portfolio because, in addition to its total net assets, the Portfolio would be subject to investment exposure on the notional amount of the swap. As a buyer of protection, the Portfolio generally receives an amount up to the notional value of the swap if a credit event occurs. The treatment of a credit default swaps and other swap agreements that provide for contingent, non-periodic, bullet-type payments as “notional principal contracts” for federal income tax purposes is uncertain. Were the Internal Revenue Service in take the position that a credit default swap or other bullet-type swap is not a “notional principal contract” for federal income tax purposes, payments received by the Portfolio from such investments might be subject to income taxes.
Swaps are marked to market daily based upon quotations from market makers and the change in value, if any, is recorded as unrealized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Payments received or made at the beginning of the measurement period are reflected as such in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. These upfront payments are recorded as realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations upon termination or maturity of the swap. A liquidation payment received or made at the termination of the swap is recorded as realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Net periodic payments received or paid by the Portfolio are included as part of realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Entering into these agreements involves, to varying degrees, elements
| | | | | | |
| | Semiannual Report | | June 30, 2006 | | 17 |
Notes to Financial Statements (Cont.)
of credit, market and documentation risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Such risks involve the possibility that there will be no liquid market for these agreements, that the counterparty to the agreements may default on its obligation to perform or disagree as to the meaning of contractual terms in the agreements and that there may be unfavorable changes in interest rates.
U.S. Government Agencies or Government-Sponsored Enterprises. Securities issued by U.S. Government agencies or government-sponsored enterprises may not be guaranteed by the U.S. Treasury. The Government National Mortgage Association (“GNMA”), a wholly owned U.S. Government corporation, is authorized to guarantee, with the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government, the timely payment of principal and interest on securities issued by institutions approved by GNMA and backed by pools of mortgages insured by the Federal Housing Administration or guaranteed by the Department of Veterans Affairs. Government-related guarantors (i.e., not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government) include the Federal National Mortgage Association (“FNMA” or “Fannie Mae”) and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“FHLMC” or “Freddie Mac”). Pass-through securities issued by FNMA are guaranteed as to timely payment of principal and interest by FNMA but are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government. FHLMC guarantees the timely payment of interest and ultimate collection of principal, but its participation certificates are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government.
Guarantees and Indemnifications. Under the Trust’s organizational documents, each Trustee, officer, employee or other agent of the Trust (including the Trust’s investment manager) is indemnified against certain liabilities that may arise out of performance of their duties to the Portfolio. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Portfolio enters into contracts that contain a variety of indemnification clauses. The Portfolio’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Portfolio that have not yet occurred. However, the Portfolio has not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts, and believes the risk of loss to be remote.
New Accounting Policies. In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes—an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (the “Interpretation”). The Interpretation is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. Management is currently evaluating the application of the Interpretation to the Portfolio and will provide additional information in relation to the Interpretation in the Portfolio’s annual financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2006.
3. FEES, EXPENSES, AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Investment Advisory Fee. PIMCO is a majority-owned subsidiary of Allianz Global Investors of America L.P. (“AGI”), and serves as investment adviser (the “Adviser”) to the Trust, pursuant to an investment advisory contract. The Adviser receives a monthly fee at an annual rate based on average daily net assets of the Portfolio. The Advisory Fee is charged at an annual rate of 0.25%.
Administration Fee. PIMCO serves as administrator (the “Administrator”), and provides administrative services to the Trust for which it receives a monthly administrative fee based on average daily net assets of the Portfolio. As the Administrator, PIMCO bears the costs of various third-party services, including audit, custodial, portfolio accounting, legal, transfer agency and printing costs. The Administration Fee is charged at the annual rate of 0.50%.
Distribution and Servicing Fees. Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC (“AGID”) is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of AGI and serves as the distributor of the Trust’s shares. The Trust is permitted to reimburse AGID on a quarterly basis, out of the Administrative Class assets of the Portfolio in the amount of 0.15% on an annual basis of the average daily net assets of that class, for payments made to financial intermediaries that provide services in connection with the distribution of shares or administration of plans or programs that use Portfolio shares as their funding medium. The effective rate paid to AGID was 0.15% during the current fiscal year.
Expenses. The Trust is responsible for the following expenses: (i) salaries and other compensation of any of the Trust’s executive officers and employees who are not officers, directors, stockholders or employees of PIMCO or its subsidiaries or affiliates; (ii) taxes and governmental fees; (iii) brokerage fees and commissions and other portfolio transaction expenses; (iv) the costs of borrowing money, including interest expenses and bank overdraft charges; (v) fees and expenses of the Trustees who are not “interested persons” of PIMCO or the Trust, and any counsel retained exclusively for their benefit; (vi) extraordinary expenses, including costs of litigation and indemnification expenses; (vii) organization expenses and (viii) any expenses allocated or allocable to a specific class of shares, which include service fees payable with respect to the Administrative Class shares and may include certain other expenses as permitted by the Trust’s Multiple Class Plan adopted pursuant to Rule 18f-3 under the Act and subject to review and approval by the Trustees. The ratio of expenses to average net assets per share class, as disclosed in the Financial Highlights, may differ from the annual portfolio operating expenses per share class as disclosed in the Prospectus for the reasons set forth above.
For the current period ended June 30, 2006, each unaffiliated Trustee received an annual retainer of $15,000, plus $2,000 for each Board of Trustees quarterly meeting attended, $500 for each Board of Trustees committee meeting attended and $500 for each special board meeting attended, plus reimbursement of related expenses. In addition, each Committee Chair received an additional annual retainer of $500 and each Audit Committee Chair received an additional annual retainer of $1,500. These expenses are allocated on a pro-rata basis to each Portfolio of the Trust according to its respective net assets. The Trust pays no compensation directly to any Trustee or any other officer who is affiliated with the Administrator, all of whom receive remuneration for their services to the Trust from the Administrator or its affiliates.
4. PURCHASES AND SALES OF SECURITIES
The length of time the Portfolio has held a particular security is not generally a consideration in investment decisions. A change in the securities held by the Portfolio is known as “portfolio turnover”. The Portfolio may engage in frequent and active trading of portfolio securities to achieve its investment objective, particularly during periods of volatile market movements. High portfolio turnover (e.g., over 100%) involves correspondingly greater expenses to the Portfolio, including brokerage commissions or dealer mark-ups and other transaction costs on the sale of securities and reinvestments in other securities. Such sales may also result in realization of taxable capital gains, including short-term capital gains (which are generally taxed at ordinary income tax rates). The trading costs and tax effects associated with portfolio turnover may adversely affect the Portfolio’s performance.
Purchases and sales of securities (excluding short-term investments) for the period ended June 30, 2006 were as follows (amounts in thousands):

$ 1,351 | | $ (981) | | $ 370 |
8. REGULATORY AND LITIGATION MATTERS
On June 1, 2004, the Attorney General of the State of New Jersey announced that it had dismissed PIMCO from a complaint filed by the New Jersey Attorney General on February 17, 2004, and that it had entered into a settlement agreement (the “New Jersey Settlement”) with Allianz Global Investors of America L.P. (“AGI”) (formerly known as Allianz Dresdner Asset Management of America L.P.), PEA Capital LLC (an entity affiliated with PIMCO through common ownership) (“PEA”) and Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC (“AGID”), in connection with the same matter. In the New Jersey Settlement, AGI, PEA and AGID neither admitted nor denied the allegations or conclusions of law, but did agree to pay New Jersey a civil fine of $15 million and $3 million for investigative costs and further potential enforcement initiatives against unrelated parties. They also undertook to implement certain governance changes. The complaint relating to the New Jersey Settlement alleged, among other things, that AGI, PEA and AGID had failed to disclose that they improperly allowed certain hedge funds to engage in “market timing” in certain funds. The complaint sought injunctive relief, civil monetary penalties, restitution and disgorgement of profits.
Since February 2004, PIMCO, AGI, PEA, AGID, and certain of their affiliates, including the PIMCO Funds, the Allianz Funds (formerly known as PIMCO Funds: Multi-Manager Series), and the Trustees and employees of the PIMCO Funds, have been named as defendants in fifteen lawsuits filed in various jurisdictions. Eleven of those lawsuits concern “market timing,” and they have been transferred to and consolidated for pre-trial proceedings in a multi-district litigation proceeding in the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland; the other four lawsuits concern “revenue sharing” and have been consolidated into a single action in the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut. The lawsuits have been commenced as putative class actions on behalf of investors who purchased, held or redeemed shares of the various series of the PIMCO Funds and the Allianz Funds during specified periods, or as derivative actions on behalf of the PIMCO Funds and Allianz Funds.
The market timing actions in the District of Maryland generally allege that certain hedge funds were allowed to engage in “market timing” in certain of the PIMCO Funds and the Allianz Funds and this alleged activity was not disclosed. Pursuant to tolling agreements entered into with the derivative and class action plaintiffs, PIMCO, the Trustees, and certain employees of PIMCO who were previously named as defendants have all been dropped as defendants in the market timing actions; the plaintiffs continue to assert claims on behalf of the shareholders of the PIMCO Funds or on behalf of the PIMCO Funds themselves against other defendants. By order dated November 3, 2005, the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland granted the PIMCO Funds’ motion to dismiss claims asserted against it in a consolidated amended complaint where the PIMCO Funds were named, in the complaint, as a nominal defendant. The revenue sharing action in the District of Connecticut generally alleges that fund assets were inappropriately used to pay brokers to promote the PIMCO Funds Allianz Funds, including directing fund brokerage transactions to such brokers, and that such alleged arrangements were not fully disclosed to shareholders. On August 11, 2005 the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut conducted a hearing on defendants’ motion to dismiss the consolidated amended complaint in the revenue sharing action but has not yet ruled on the motion to dismiss. The market timing and revenue sharing lawsuits seek, among other things, unspecified compensatory damages plus interest and, in some cases, punitive damages, the rescission of investment advisory contracts, the return of fees paid under those contracts and restitution.
Under Section 9(a) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“1940 Act”), if the New Jersey Settlement or any of the lawsuits described above were to result in a court injunction against AGI, PEA, AGID and/or their affiliates, PIMCO could, in the absence of exemptive relief granted by the SEC, be barred from serving as an investment adviser, and AGID could be barred from serving as principal underwriter, to any registered investment company, including the

Notes to Financial Statements (Cont.)
Portfolios of the Trust. In connection with an inquiry from the SEC concerning the status of the New Jersey Settlement under Section 9(a), PEA, AGID, AGI and certain of their affiliates (including PIMCO) (together, the “Applicants”) have sought exemptive relief from the SEC under Section 9(c) of the 1940 Act. The SEC has granted the Applicants a temporary exemption from the provisions of Section 9(a) with respect to the New Jersey Settlement until the earlier of (i) September 13, 2006 and (ii) the date on which the SEC takes final action on their application for a permanent order. There is no assurance that the SEC will issue a permanent order.
Two nearly identical class action civil complaints have been filed in August 2005, in the Northern District of Illinois Eastern Division alleging that the plaintiffs each purchased and sold a 10-year Treasury note futures contract and suffered damages from an alleged shortage when PIMCO held both physical and futures positions in 10-year Treasury notes for its client accounts. The two actions have been consolidated into one action, and the two separate complaints have been replaced by a consolidated complaint. PIMCO is a named defendant, and the PIMCO Funds have been added as a defendant, to the consolidated action. PIMCO strongly believes the complaint (and any consolidated complaint filed hereafter) is without merit and intends to vigorously defend itself.
Certain Portfolios of the Trust were recently served in an adversary proceeding brought by the Official Committee of Asbestos Claimants of G-I Holdings, Inc. in G-I Holdings, Inc.’s bankruptcy in the District of New Jersey. PIMCO was previously named in this lawsuit and remains a defendant. The plaintiff seeks to recover for the bankruptcy estate assets that were transferred by the predecessor entity of G-I Holdings, Inc. to a wholly-owned subsidiary in 1994. The subsidiary has since issued notes, of which certain Portfolios of the Trust are alleged to be holders. The complaint alleges that in 2000, more than two hundred noteholders—including certain Portfolios of the Trust—were granted a second priority lien on the assets of the subsidiary in exchange for their consent to a refinancing transaction and the granting of a first priority lien to the lending banks. The plaintiff is seeking invalidation of the lien in favor of the noteholders and/or the value of the lien.
It is possible that these matters and/or other developments resulting from these matters could result in increased fund redemptions or other adverse consequences to the Portfolios. However, PIMCO and AGID believe that these matters are not likely to have a material adverse effect on the Portfolios or on PIMCO’s or AGID’s ability to perform their respective investment advisory or distribution services relating to the Portfolios.

Chairman’s Letter
Dear PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust Shareholder:
It is our pleasure to present to you the semiannual report for the PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust covering the six-month period ended June 30, 2006.
Highlights of the global bond markets during the six-month period included:
| n | | Most fixed-income sectors lost ground during the first half of 2006, as concern about accelerating inflation and central bank tightening pushed interest rates higher worldwide. The benchmark Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index (which includes Treasury, Investment-Grade Corporate, and Residential Mortgage-Backed Securities) returned -0.72% for the first six months of the year. On June 30, the benchmark ten-year Treasury yielded 5.14%, 0.75% higher than at the start of the year. The U.S. yield curve remained flat as shorter-maturity yields rose by a comparable amount. |
| n | | The Federal Reserve tightened four times during the reporting period, bringing the Federal Funds Rate to 5.25%. The increase near the end of the period was the Federal Reserve’s 17th consecutive rate hike since the start of its tightening cycle in 2004. The Federal Reserve was not alone, as central banks in Europe, India, and China tightened credit in unison for the first time since 2000. The Bank of Japan, whose zero-interest-rate policy has flooded global markets with liquidity, looked set to reverse this policy in the coming months. |
In these pages please find a more complete Portfolio review as it relates to financial-market activities, as well as details about total-return investment performance for the six-month reporting period. Thank you for the trust you have placed in us. We will continue to work diligently to meet your investment needs.
Sincerely,

Brent R. Harris
Chairman, PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust

Important Information About the Portfolio
PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust (the “Trust”) is an open-end management investment company currently consisting of nineteen separate investment portfolios, including the Global Bond Portfolio (Unhedged) (the “Portfolio”). The Portfolio is only available as a funding vehicle under variable life insurance policies or variable annuity contracts issued by insurance companies (“Variable Contracts”). Individuals may not purchase shares of the Portfolio directly. Shares of the Portfolio also may be sold to qualified pension and retirement plans outside of the separate account context.
We believe that bond funds have an important role to play in a well diversified investment portfolio. It is important to note, however, that in an environment where interest rates may trend upward, rising rates would negatively impact the performance of most bond funds, and fixed-income securities held by a fund are likely to decrease in value. The price volatility of fixed-income securities can also increase during periods of rising interest rates resulting in increased losses to a fund. Bond funds and individual bonds with a longer duration (a measure of the expected life of a security) tend to be more sensitive to changes in interest rates, usually making them more volatile than securities or funds with shorter durations. The longer-term performance of most bond funds has benefited from capital gains in part resulting from an extended period of declining interest rates. In the event interest rates increase, these capital gains should not be expected to recur.
The Portfolio may be subject to various risks in addition to those described above. Some of these risks may include, but are not limited to, the following: credit risk, high yield risk, market risk, issuer risk, liquidity risk, derivatives risk, mortgage risk, non-U.S. investment risk, currency risk, issuer non-diversification risk, leveraging risk and management risk. A complete description of these risks is contained in the Portfolio’s prospectus. The Portfolio may use derivative instruments for hedging purposes or as part of an investment strategy. Use of these instruments may involve certain costs and risks such as liquidity risk, interest rate risk, market risk, credit risk, management risk and the risk that the Portfolio could not close out a position when it would be most advantageous to do so. A Portfolio investing in derivatives could lose more than the principal amount invested in these instruments. Investing in non-U.S. securities may entail risk due to non-U.S. economic and political developments; this risk may be increased when investing in emerging markets.
On the performance summary page in this Semiannual Report, the Total Return Investment Performance table measures performance assuming that all dividend and capital gain distributions were reinvested.
An investment in the Portfolio is not a deposit of a bank and is not guaranteed or insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. It is possible to lose money on investments in the Portfolio.
PIMCO has adopted written proxy voting policies and procedures (“Proxy Policy”) as required by Rule 206(4)-6 under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940. The Proxy Policy has been adopted by the Trust as the policies and procedures that PIMCO will use when voting proxies on behalf of the Portfolio. Copies of the written Proxy Policy and the factors that PIMCO may consider in determining how to vote proxies for the Portfolio, and information about how the Portfolio voted proxies relating to portfolio securities held during the most recent twelve-month period ended June 30, are available without charge, upon request, by calling the Trust at 1-866-746-2606 and on the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) website at http://www.sec.gov.
The Portfolio files its complete schedule of portfolio holdings with the SEC for the first and third quarters of each fiscal year on Form N-Q. A copy of the Trust’s Form N-Q is available on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov and may be reviewed and copied at the SEC’s Public Reference Room in Washington D.C. Information on the operation of the Public Reference Room may be obtained by calling 1-800-SEC-0330.

The following disclosure provides important information regarding the Portfolio’s Expense Example (“Example” or “Expense Example”), which appears in this Semiannual Report. Please refer to this information when reviewing the Expense Example for the Portfolio.
Example
As a shareholder of the Portfolio, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs and (2) ongoing costs, including advisory and administrative fees; distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees (Administrative Class only); and other Portfolio expenses. The Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Portfolio and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Expense Example does not reflect any fees or other expenses imposed by the Variable Contracts. If it did, the expenses reflected in the Expense Examples would be higher. The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period indicated, which is from January 1, 2006 to June 30, 2006.
Actual Expenses
The information in the table under the heading “Actual Performance” provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in these columns, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.60), then multiply the result by the number in the appropriate column for your share class, in the row titled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The information in the table under the heading “Hypothetical Performance (5% return before expenses)” provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Portfolio’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Portfolio’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Portfolio and other portfolios. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other portfolios.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs. Therefore, the information under the heading “Hypothetical Performance (5% return before expenses)” is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different portfolios. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.
The expense ratio may vary period to period because of various factors, such as an increase in expenses not covered by the advisory and administrative fees (such as expenses of the trustees and their counsel or litigation expense).

Past performance is no guarantee of future results. The performance quoted represents past performance. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so the Portfolio shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. The Portfolio’s performance does not reflect the deduction of additional charges and expenses imposed in connection with investing in Variable Contracts, which will reduce returns. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. Performance data current to the most recent month-end is available by calling (800) 927-4648.

Overall fees and expenses of investing in the Portfolio will be higher because the example does not reflect Variable Contract fees and expenses.

Portfolio Insights
» | | The PIMCO Global Bond Portfolio (Unhedged) seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing under normal circumstances at least 80% of its assets in Fixed-Income Instruments of issuers located in at least three countries (one of which may be the United States), which may be represented by futures contracts (including related options) with respect to such securities, and options on such securities. |
» | | An underweight to Euroland duration and a curve flattening bias added to returns as these yields rose on stronger than expected economic data and hawkish European Central Bank comments. |
» | | An overweight to U.S. duration and an emphasis on shorter maturities detracted from returns, as rates rose and the yield curve continued to flatten amid concern that the Federal Reserve would extend its tightening cycle. |
» | | An emphasis on mortgage-backed securities was positive for performance as mortgages outperformed like-duration Treasuries amidst declining volatility and heightened investor demand. |
» | | A focus on the short-to-intermediate portion of the U.K. curve was negative for returns as U.K. long-dated gilts outperformed on firmer demand for longer dated assets. |
» | | A long position in the Euro and the Yen versus the U.S. dollar was positive for returns as the Euro and the Yen appreciated on improving growth and expectations of monetary tightening. |

1. ORGANIZATION
The Global Bond Portfolio (Unhedged) (the “Portfolio”) is a series of the PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust (the “Trust”). The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “Act”), as amended, as an open-end investment management company organized as a Delaware business trust on October 3, 1997. The Portfolio offers two classes of shares: Institutional and Administrative. Information presented in these financial statements pertains to the Administrative Class of the Portfolio. Certain detailed financial information for the Institutional Class is provided separately and is available upon request. The Trust is designed to be used as an investment vehicle by Separate Accounts of insurance companies that fund variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies and by qualified pension and retirement plans.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Portfolio in the preparation of its financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Security Valuation. Portfolio securities are valued as of the close of regular trading (normally 4:00 p.m., Eastern Time) on each day that the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) is open. Portfolio securities and other assets for which market quotes are readily available are stated at market value. Market value is generally determined on the basis of last reported sales prices, or if no sales are reported, based on quotes obtained from a quotation reporting system, established market makers, or pricing services. Fixed-income securities and non-exchange traded derivatives are normally valued on the basis of quotes obtained from brokers and dealers or pricing services. Prices obtained from independent pricing services use information provided by market makers or estimates of market values obtained from yield data relating to investments or securities with similar characteristics. Certain fixed-income securities purchased on a delayed-delivery basis are marked to market daily until settlement at the forward settlement date. Short-term investments having a maturity of 60 days or less are generally valued at amortized cost. Exchange traded options, futures and options on futures are valued at the settlement price determined by the relevant exchange.
Investments initially valued in currencies other than the U.S. dollar are converted to the U.S. dollar using exchange rates obtained from pricing services. As a result, the NAV of the Portfolio’s shares may be affected by changes in the value of currencies in relation to the U.S. dollar. The value of securities traded in markets outside the United States or denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar may be affected significantly on a day that the NYSE is closed and an investor is not able to purchase, redeem or exchange shares.
Securities and other assets for which market quotes are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction. The Board of Trustees has adopted methods for valuing securities and other assets in circumstances where market quotes are not readily available, and has delegated to Pacific Investment Management Company LLC (“PIMCO”) the responsibility for applying the valuation methods. In the event that market quotes are not readily available, and the security or asset cannot be valued pursuant to one of the valuation methods, the value of the security or asset will be determined in good faith by the Valuation Committee of the Board of Trustees, generally based upon recommendations provided by PIMCO.
Market quotes are considered not readily available in circumstances where there is an absence of current or reliable market-based data (e.g., trade information, bid/ asked information, broker quotes), including where events occur after the close of the relevant market, but prior to the close of regular trading, that materially affect the values of the Portfolio’s securities or assets. In addition, market quotes are considered not readily available when, due to extraordinary circumstances, the exchanges or markets on which the securities trade do not open for trading for the entire day and no other market prices are available. The Board has delegated to PIMCO the responsibility for monitoring significant events that may materially affect the values of the Portfolio’s securities or assets and for determining whether the value of the applicable securities or assets should be re-evaluated in light of such significant events when the Portfolio uses fair value pricing to determine its NAV, securities will not be priced on the basis of quotations from the primary market in which they are traded, but rather may be priced by another method that the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction believe accurately reflects fair value. The Trust’s policy is intended to result in a calculation of the Portfolio’s NAV that fairly reflects security values as of the time of pricing. However, fair values determined by the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction may not accurately reflect the price that the Portfolio could obtain for a security if it were to dispose of that security as of the time of pricing. Because foreign securities can trade on non-business days, the NAV of the Portfolio may change on days when shareholders will not be able to purchase or redeem shares. The prices used by the Portfolio may differ from the value that would be realized if the securities were sold and the differences could be material to the financial statements.
Securities Transactions and Investment Income. Securities transactions are recorded as of the trade date. Securities purchased or sold on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis may be settled a month or more after the trade date. Realized gains and losses from securities sold are recorded on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Portfolio is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, adjusted for the accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis. Paydown gains and losses on mortgage-related or asset-backed securities are recorded as components of interest income in the Statement of Operations.
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends from net investment income, if any, are declared on each day the Portfolio is open for business and are distributed to shareholders monthly. Net realized capital gains earned by the Portfolio, if any, will be distributed no less frequently than once each year. Most shareholders choose to reinvest their dividends and capital gain distribution in additional shares of the Portfolio.
Income dividends and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP. Differences between tax regulations and GAAP may change the fiscal year when income and capital items are recognized for tax and GAAP purposes. Examples of events that give rise to timing differences include wash sales, straddles, net operating losses and capital loss carryforwards. Further, the character of investment income and capital gains may be different for certain transactions under the two methods of accounting. Examples of characterization differences include the treatment of mortgage paydowns, swaps, foreign currency transactions and contingent debt instruments. As a result, income dividends and capital gain distributions declared during a fiscal period may differ significantly from the net investment income and realized capital gain reported in the Portfolio’s annual financial statements presented under GAAP.
Distributions classified as a tax basis return of capital, if any, are reflected in the accompanying Statements of Changes in Net Assets and have been reclassified to paid in capital. In addition, other amounts have been reclassified between undistributed net investment income, accumulated undistributed net realized gains or losses and/or paid in capital to more appropriately conform financial accounting to tax characterizations of dividend distributions.

Notes to Financial Statements (Cont.)
Loan Participation and Assignments. The Portfolio may invest in direct debt instruments which are interests in amounts owned by corporate, governmental, or other borrowers to lenders or lending syndicates. The Portfolio’s investments in loans may be in the form of participations in loans or assignments of all or a portion of loans from third parties. A loan is often administered by a bank or other financial institution (the “lender”) that acts as agent for all holders. The agent administers the terms of the loan, as specified in the loan agreement. When investing in a loan participation, the Portfolio has the right to receive payments of principal, interest and any fees to which it is entitled only from the lender selling the loan agreement and only upon receipt by the lender of payments from the borrower. The Portfolio generally has no right to enforce compliance with the terms of the loan agreement with the borrower. As a result, the Portfolio may be subject to the credit risk of both the borrower and the lender that is selling the loan agreement. When the Portfolio purchases assignments from lenders it acquires direct rights against the borrower on the loan. At the end of the period, the Portfolio had no unfunded loan commitments.
Delayed-Delivery Transactions. The Portfolio may purchase or sell securities on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis. These transactions involve a commitment by the Portfolio to purchase or sell securities for a predetermined price or yield, with payment and delivery taking place beyond the customary settlement period. When delayed-delivery purchases are outstanding, the Portfolio will designate liquid assets in an amount sufficient to meet the purchase price. When purchasing a security on a delayed-delivery basis, the Portfolio assumes the rights and risks of ownership of the security, including the risk of price and yield fluctuations, and takes such fluctuations into account when determining its net asset value. The Portfolio may dispose of or renegotiate a delayed-delivery transaction after it is entered into, and may sell when-issued securities before they are delivered, which may result in a capital gain or loss. When the Portfolio has sold a security on a delayed-delivery basis, the Portfolio does not participate in future gains and losses with respect to the security.
Federal Income Taxes. The Portfolio intends to qualify as a regulated investment company under sub-chapter M of the Internal Revenue Code and distribute all of its taxable income and net realized gains, if applicable, to shareholders. Accordingly, no provision for Federal income taxes has been made.
Foreign Currency. The accounting records of the Portfolio are maintained in U.S. dollar. The market values of foreign securities, currency holdings and other assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollar based on the current exchange rates each business day. Fluctuations in the value of currency holdings and other assets and liabilities resulting from changes in exchange rates are recorded as unrealized foreign currency gains or losses. Realized gains or losses and unrealized appreciation or depreciation on investment securities and income and expenses are translated on the respective dates of such transactions. The effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on investments in securities are not segregated in the Statement of Operations from the effects of changes in market prices of those securities, but are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss on investment securities.

Forward Currency Transactions. The Portfolio may enter into forward currency contracts in connection with settling planned purchases or sales of securities, to hedge the currency exposure associated with some or all of the Portfolio’s securities or as a part of an investment strategy. A forward currency contract is an agreement between two parties to buy and sell a currency at a set price on a future date. The market value of a forward currency contract fluctuates with changes in forward currency exchange rates. Forward currency contracts are marked to market daily and the change in value is recorded by the Portfolio as an unrealized gain or loss. Realized gains or losses equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed are recorded upon delivery or receipt of the currency or, if a forward currency contract is offset by entering into another forward currency contract with the same broker, upon settlement of the net gain or loss. These contracts may involve market risk in excess of the unrealized gain or loss reflected in the Portfolio’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities. In addition, the Portfolio could be exposed to risk if the counterparties are unable to meet the terms of the contracts or if the value of the currency changes unfavorably to the U.S. dollar.
Futures Contracts. The Portfolio is authorized to enter into futures contracts. The Portfolio may use futures contracts to manage its exposure to the securities markets or to movements in interest rates and currency values. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are the imperfect correlation between the change in market value of the securities held by the Portfolio and the prices of futures contracts, the possibility of an illiquid market, and the inability of the counterparty to meet the terms of the contract. Futures contracts are valued based upon their quoted daily settlement prices. Upon entering into a futures contract, the Portfolio is required to deposit with its custodian, in a segregated account in the name of the futures broker, an amount of cash or U.S. Government and Agency Obligations in accordance with the initial margin requirements of the broker or exchange. Futures contracts are marked to market daily and an appropriate payable or receivable for the change in value (“variation margin”) is recorded by the Portfolio. Gains or losses are recognized but not considered realized until the contracts expire or are closed. Futures contracts involve, to varying degrees, risk of loss in excess of the variation margin disclosed in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
Inflation-Indexed Bonds. The Portfolio may invest in inflation-indexed bonds. Inflation-indexed bonds are fixed-income securities whose principal value is periodically adjusted to the rate of inflation. The interest rate on these bonds is generally fixed at issuance at a rate lower than typical bonds. Over the life of an inflation-indexed bond, however, interest will be paid based on a principal value, which is adjusted for inflation. Any increase in the principal amount of an inflation-indexed bond will be included as interest income in the Statement of Operations, even though investors do not receive their principal until maturity.
Options Contracts. The Portfolio may write call and put options on futures, swaps, securities or currencies it owns or in which it may invest. Writing put options tends to increase the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. Writing call options tends to decrease the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. When the Portfolio writes a call or put option, an amount equal to the premium received is recorded as a liability and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the option written. These liabilities are reflected as written options outstanding in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Certain options may be written with premiums to determined on a future date. The premiums for these options are based upon implied volatility parameters at specified terms. Premiums received from writing options which expire are treated as realized gains. Premiums received from writing options which are exercised or closed are added to the proceeds or offset against amounts paid on the underlying future, swap, security or currency transaction to determine the realized gain or loss. The Portfolio as a writer of an option has no control over whether the underlying future, swap, security or currency may be sold (call) or purchased (put) and as a result bears the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the future, swap, security or currency underlying the written option. There is the risk the Portfolio may not be able to enter into a closing transaction because of an illiquid market.

The Portfolio may also purchase put and call options. Purchasing call options tends to increase the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. Purchasing put options tends to decrease the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. The Portfolio pays a premium which is included in the Portfolio’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an investment and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the option. Certain options may be purchased with premiums to be determined on a future date. The premiums for these options are based upon implied volatility parameters at specified terms. Premiums paid for purchasing options which expire are treated as realized losses. The risk associated with purchasing put and call options is limited to the premium paid. Premiums paid for purchasing options which are exercised or closed are added to the amounts paid or offset against the proceeds on the underlying future, swap, security or currency transaction to determine the realized gain or loss.
Repurchase Agreements. The Portfolio may engage in repurchase transactions. Under the terms of a typical repurchase agreement, the Portfolio takes possession of an underlying debt obligation subject to an obligation of the seller to repurchase, and the Portfolio to resell, the obligation at an agreed-upon price and time. The market value of the collateral must be equal to or exceed at all times the total amount of the repurchase obligations, including interest. Securities purchased under repurchase agreements are reflected as an asset in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Generally, in the event of counterparty default, the Portfolio has the right to use the collateral to offset losses incurred. If the counterparty should default, the Portfolio will seek to sell the securities which it holds as collateral. This could involve procedural costs or delays in addition to a loss on the securities if their value should fall below their repurchase price.
Mortgage-Related and Other Asset-Backed Securities. The Portfolio may invest in mortgage-related or other asset-backed securities. These securities include mortgage pass-through securities, collateralized mortgage obligations (“CMOs”), commercial mortgage-backed securities, mortgage dollar rolls, CMO residuals, stripped mortgage-backed securities (“SMBSs”) and other securities that directly or indirectly represent a participation in, or are secured by and payable from, mortgage loans on real property. The value of some mortgage- or asset-backed securities may be particularly sensitive to changes in prevailing interest rates. Early repayment of principal on some mortgage-related securities may expose a Portfolio to a lower rate of return upon reinvestment of principal. The value of these securities may fluctuate in response to the market’s perception of the creditworthiness of the issuers. Additionally, although mortgages and mortgage-related securities are generally supported by some form of government or private guarantee and/or insurance, there is no assurance that private guarantors or insurers will meet their obligations.
One type of SMBS has one class receiving all of the interest from the mortgage assets (the interest-only, or “IO” class), while the other class will receive all of the principal (the principal-only, or “PO” class). Payments received for IOs are included in interest income in the Statement of Operations. Because principal will not be received at the maturity of an IO, adjustments are made to the book value of the security on a daily basis until maturity. These adjustments are included in interest income in the Statement of Operations. Payments received for POs are treated as reductions to the cost and par value of the securities.
Swap Agreements. The Portfolio may engage in swap transactions, including, but not limited to, swap agreements on interest rate and credit default to manage its exposure to interest rates and credit risk. In connection with these agreements, securities may be identified as collateral in accordance with the terms of the respective swap agreements.
Interest rate swap agreements involve the exchange by the Portfolio with another party of their respective commitments to pay or receive interest, e.g., an exchange of floating rate payments for fixed rate payments with respect to the notional amount of principal.
Credit default swap agreements involve one party making a stream of payments to another party in exchange for the right to receive a specified return in the event of a default by a third party, typically corporate issues or sovereign issues of an emerging country, on its obligation. The Portfolio may use credit default swaps to provide a measure of protection against defaults of the issuers (i.e., to reduce risk where the Portfolio owns or has exposure to the sovereign issuer) or to take an active long or short position with respect to the likelihood of a particular issuer’s default. As a seller of protection, the Portfolio generally receives an upfront payment or a fixed rate of income throughout the term of the swap provided that there is no credit event. If the Portfolio is a seller of protection and a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement, the Portfolio will pay to the buyer of the protection an amount up to the notional value of the swap and in certain instances take delivery of the security. As the seller, the Portfolio would effectively add leverage to its portfolio because, in addition to its total net assets, the Portfolio would be subject to investment exposure on the notional amount of the swap. As a buyer of protection, the Portfolio generally receives an amount up to the notional value of the swap if a credit event occurs. The treatment of a credit default swaps and other swap agreements that provide for contingent, non-periodic, bullet-type payments as “notional principal contracts” for federal income tax purposes is uncertain. Were the Internal Revenue Service in take the position that a credit default swap or other bullet-type swap is not a “notional principal contract” for federal income tax purposes, payments received by the Portfolio from such investments might be subject to income taxes.
Swaps are marked to market daily based upon quotations from market makers and the change in value, if any, is recorded as unrealized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Payments received or made at the beginning of the measurement period are reflected as such in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. These upfront payments are recorded as realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations upon termination or maturity of the swap. A liquidation payment received or made at the termination of the swap is recorded as realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Net periodic payments received or paid by the Portfolio are included as part of realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Entering into these agreements involves, to varying degrees, elements of credit, market and documentation risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Such risks involve the possibility that there will be no liquid market for these agreements, that the counterparty to the agreements may default on its obligation to perform or disagree as to the meaning of contractual terms in the agreements and that there may be unfavorable changes in interest rates.
U.S. Government Agencies or Government-Sponsored Enterprises. Securities issued by U.S. Government agencies or government-sponsored enterprises may not be guaranteed by the U.S. Treasury. The Government National Mortgage Association (“GNMA”), a wholly owned U.S. Government corporation, is authorized to guarantee, with the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government, the timely payment of principal and interest on securities issued by institutions approved by GNMA and backed by pools of mortgages insured by the Federal Housing Administration or guaranteed by the Department of Veterans Affairs. Government-related guarantors (i.e., not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government) include the Federal National Mortgage Association (“FNMA” or “Fannie Mae”) and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“FHLMC” or “Freddie Mac”). Pass-through securities issued by FNMA are guaranteed as to timely payment of principal and interest by FNMA but are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government. FHLMC guarantees the timely payment of interest and ultimate collection of principal, but its participation certificates are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government.
Guarantees and Indemnifications. Under the Trust’s organizational documents, each Trustee, officer, employee or other agent of the Trust (including the Trust’s investment manager) is indemnified against certain liabilities that may
| | | | | | |
| | Semiannual Report | | June 30, 2006 | | 17 |
Notes to Financial Statements (Cont.)
arise out of performance of their duties to the Portfolio. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Portfolio enters into contracts that contain a variety of indemnification clauses. The Portfolio’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Portfolio that have not yet occurred. However, the Portfolio has not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts, and believes the risk of loss to be remote.
New Accounting Policies. In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes—an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (the “Interpretation”). The Interpretation is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. Management is currently evaluating the application of the Interpretation to the Portfolio and will provide additional information in relation to the Interpretation in the Portfolio’s annual financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2006.
3. FEES, EXPENSES, AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Investment Advisory Fee. PIMCO is a majority-owned subsidiary of Allianz Global Investors of America L.P. (“AGI”), and serves as investment adviser (the “Adviser”) to the Trust, pursuant to an investment advisory contract. The Adviser receives a monthly fee at an annual rate based on average daily net assets of the Portfolio. The Advisory Fee is charged at an annual rate of 0.25%.
Administration Fee. PIMCO serves as administrator (the “Administrator”), and provides administrative services to the Trust for which it receives a monthly administrative fee based on average daily net assets of the Portfolio. As the Administrator, PIMCO bears the costs of various third-party services, including audit, custodial, portfolio accounting, legal, transfer agency and printing costs. The Administration Fee is charged at the annual rate of 0.50%.
Distribution and Servicing Fees. Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC (“AGID”) is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of AGI and serves as the distributor of the Trust’s shares. The Trust is permitted to reimburse AGID on a quarterly basis, out of the Administrative Class assets of the Portfolio in the amount of 0.15% on an annual basis of the average daily net assets of that class, for payments made to financial intermediaries that provide services in connection with the distribution of shares or administration of plans or programs that use Portfolio shares as their funding medium. The effective rate paid to AGID was 0.15% during the current fiscal year.
Expenses. The Trust is responsible for the following expenses: (i) salaries and other compensation of any of the Trust’s executive officers and employees who are not officers, directors, stockholders or employees of PIMCO or its subsidiaries or affiliates; (ii) taxes and governmental fees; (iii) brokerage fees and commissions and other portfolio transaction expenses; (iv) the costs of borrowing money, including interest expenses and bank overdraft charges; (v) fees and expenses of the Trustees who are not “interested persons” of PIMCO or the Trust, and any counsel retained exclusively for their benefit; (vi) extraordinary expenses, including costs of litigation and indemnification expenses; (vii) organization expenses and (viii) any expenses allocated or allocable to a specific class of shares, which include service fees payable with respect to the Administrative Class shares and may include certain other expenses as permitted by the Trust’s Multiple Class Plan adopted pursuant to Rule 18f-3 under the Act and subject to review and approval by the Trustees. The ratio of expenses to average net assets per share class, as disclosed in the Financial Highlights, may differ from the annual portfolio operating expenses per share class as disclosed in the Prospectus for the reasons set forth above.
For the current period ended June 30, 2006, each unaffiliated Trustee received an annual retainer of $15,000, plus $2,000 for each Board of Trustees quarterly meeting attended, $500 for each Board of Trustees committee meeting attended and $500 for each special board meeting attended, plus reimbursement of related expenses. In addition, each Committee Chair received an additional annual retainer of $500 and each Audit Committee Chair received an additional annual retainer of $1,500. These expenses are allocated on a pro-rata basis to each Portfolio of the Trust according to its respective net assets. The Trust pays no compensation directly to any Trustee or any other officer who is affiliated with the Administrator, all of whom receive remuneration for their services to the Trust from the Administrator or its affiliates.
4. PURCHASES AND SALES OF SECURITIES
The length of time the Portfolio has held a particular security is not generally a consideration in investment decisions. A change in the securities held by the Portfolio is known as “portfolio turnover”. The Portfolio may engage in frequent and active trading of portfolio securities to achieve its investment objective, particularly during periods of volatile market movements. High portfolio turnover (e.g., over 100%) involves correspondingly greater expenses to the Portfolio, including brokerage commissions or dealer mark-ups and other transaction costs on the sale of securities and reinvestments in other securities. Such sales may also result in realization of taxable capital gains, including short-term capital gains (which are generally taxed at ordinary income tax rates). The trading costs and tax effects associated with portfolio turnover may adversely affect the Portfolio’s performance.
Purchases and sales of securities (excluding short-term investments) for the period ended June 30, 2006 were as follows (amounts in thousands):
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

On June 1, 2004, the Attorney General of the State of New Jersey announced that it had dismissed PIMCO from a complaint filed by the New Jersey Attorney General on February 17, 2004, and that it had entered into a settlement agreement (the “New Jersey Settlement”) with Allianz Global Investors of America L.P. (“AGI”) (formerly known as Allianz Dresdner Asset Management of America L.P.), PEA Capital LLC (an entity affiliated with PIMCO through common ownership) (“PEA”) and Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC (“AGID”), in connection with the same matter. In the New Jersey Settlement, AGI, PEA and AGID neither admitted nor denied the allegations or conclusions of law, but did agree to pay New Jersey a civil fine of $15 million and $3 million for investigative costs and further potential enforcement initiatives against unrelated parties. They also undertook to implement certain governance changes. The complaint relating to the New Jersey Settlement alleged, among other things, that AGI, PEA and AGID had failed to disclose that they improperly allowed certain hedge funds to engage in “market timing” in certain funds. The complaint sought injunctive relief, civil monetary penalties, restitution and disgorgement of profits.
Since February 2004, PIMCO, AGI, PEA, AGID, and certain of their affiliates, including the PIMCO Funds, the Allianz Funds (formerly known as PIMCO Funds: Multi-Manager Series), and the Trustees and employees of the PIMCO Funds, have been named as defendants in fifteen lawsuits filed in various jurisdictions. Eleven of those lawsuits concern “market timing,” and they have been transferred to and consolidated for pre-trial proceedings in a multi-district litigation proceeding in the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland; the other four lawsuits concern “revenue sharing” and have been consolidated into a single action in the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut. The lawsuits have been commenced as putative class actions on behalf of investors who purchased, held or redeemed shares of the various series of the PIMCO Funds and the Allianz Funds during specified periods, or as derivative actions on behalf of the PIMCO Funds and Allianz Funds.
The market timing actions in the District of Maryland generally allege that certain hedge funds were allowed to engage in “market timing” in certain of and the PIMCO Funds the Allianz Funds and this alleged activity was not disclosed. Pursuant to tolling agreements entered into with the derivative and class action plaintiffs, PIMCO, the Trustees, and certain employees of PIMCO who were previously named as defendants have all been dropped as defendants in the market timing actions; the plaintiffs continue to assert claims on behalf of the shareholders of the PIMCO Funds or on behalf of the PIMCO Funds themselves against other defendants. By order dated November 3, 2005, the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland granted the PIMCO Funds’ motion to dismiss claims asserted against it in a consolidated amended complaint where the PIMCO Funds were named, in the complaint, as a nominal defendant. The revenue sharing action in the District of Connecticut generally alleges that fund assets were inappropriately used to pay brokers to promote the PIMCO Funds and Allianz Funds including directing fund brokerage transactions to such brokers, and that such alleged arrangements were not fully disclosed to shareholders. On August 11, 2005 the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut conducted a hearing on defendants’ motion to dismiss the consolidated amended complaint in the revenue sharing action but has not yet ruled on the motion to dismiss. The market timing and revenue sharing lawsuits seek, among other things, unspecified compensatory damages plus interest and, in some cases, punitive damages, the rescission of investment advisory contracts, the return of fees paid under those contracts and restitution.
Under Section 9(a) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“1940 Act”), if the New Jersey Settlement or any of the lawsuits described above were to result in a court injunction against AGI, PEA, AGID and/or their affiliates, PIMCO could, in the absence of exemptive relief granted by the SEC, be barred from serving as an investment adviser, and AGID could be barred from serving as principal underwriter, to any registered investment company, including the Portfolios of the Trust. In connection with an inquiry from the SEC concerning the status of the New Jersey Settlement under Section 9(a), PEA, AGID, AGI and certain of their affiliates (including PIMCO) (together, the “Applicants”) have sought exemptive relief from the SEC under Section 9(c) of the 1940 Act. The SEC has granted the Applicants a temporary exemption from the provisions of Section 9(a) with respect to the New Jersey Settlement until the earlier of (i) September 13, 2006 and (ii) the date on which the SEC takes final action on their application for a permanent order. There is no assurance that the SEC will issue a permanent order.
Two nearly identical class action civil complaints have been filed in August 2005, in the Northern District of Illinois Eastern Division alleging that the plaintiffs each purchased and sold a 10-year Treasury note futures contract and suffered damages from an alleged shortage when PIMCO held both physical and futures positions in 10-year Treasury notes for its client accounts. The two actions have been consolidated into one action, and the two separate complaints have been replaced by a consolidated complaint. PIMCO is a named defendant, and the PIMCO Funds have been added as a defendant, to the consolidated action. PIMCO strongly believes the complaint (and any consolidated complaint filed hereafter) is without merit and intends to vigorously defend itself.
Certain Portfolios of the Trust were recently served in an adversary proceeding brought by the Official Committee of Asbestos Claimants of G-I Holdings, Inc. in G-I Holdings, Inc.’s bankruptcy in the District of New Jersey. PIMCO was previously named in this lawsuit and remains a defendant. The plaintiff seeks to recover for the bankruptcy estate assets that were transferred by the predecessor entity of G-I Holdings, Inc. to a wholly-owned subsidiary in 1994. The subsidiary has since issued notes, of which certain Portfolios of the Trust are alleged to be holders. The complaint alleges that in 2000, more than two hundred noteholders—including certain Portfolios of the Trust—were granted a second priority lien on the assets of the subsidiary in exchange for their consent to a refinancing transaction and the granting of a first priority lien to the lending banks. The plaintiff is seeking invalidation of the lien in favor of the noteholders and/or the value of the lien.
It is possible that these matters and/or other developments resulting from these matters could result in increased fund redemptions or other adverse consequences to the Portfolios. However, PIMCO and AGID believe that these matters are not likely to have a material adverse effect on the Portfolios or on PIMCO’s or AGID’s ability to perform their respective investment advisory or distribution services relating to the Portfolios.

Chairman’s Letter
Dear PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust Shareholder:
It is our pleasure to present to you the semiannual report for the PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust covering the six-month period ended June 30, 2006.
Highlights of the global bond markets during the six-month period included:
| n | | Most fixed-income sectors lost ground during the first half of 2006, as concern about accelerating inflation and central bank tightening pushed interest rates higher worldwide. The benchmark Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index (which includes Treasury, Investment-Grade Corporate, and Residential Mortgage-Backed Securities) returned -0.72% for the first six months of the year. On June 30, the benchmark ten-year Treasury yielded 5.14%, 0.75% higher than at the start of the year. The U.S. yield curve remained flat as shorter-maturity yields rose by a comparable amount. |
| n | | The Federal Reserve tightened four times during the reporting period, bringing the Federal Funds Rate to 5.25%. The increase near the end of the period was the Federal Reserve’s 17th consecutive rate hike since the start of its tightening cycle in 2004. The Federal Reserve was not alone, as central banks in Europe, India, and China tightened credit in unison for the first time since 2000. The Bank of Japan, whose zero-interest-rate policy has flooded global markets with liquidity, looked set to reverse this policy in the coming months. |
In these pages please find a more complete Portfolio review as it relates to financial-market activities, as well as details about total-return investment performance for the six-month reporting period. Thank you for the trust you have placed in us. We will continue to work diligently to meet your investment needs.
Sincerely,

Brent R. Harris
Chairman, PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust

Important Information About the Portfolio
PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust (the “Trust”) is an open-end management investment company currently consisting of nineteen separate investment portfolios, including the High Yield Portfolio (the “Portfolio”). The Portfolio is only available as a funding vehicle under variable life insurance policies or variable annuity contracts issued by insurance companies (“Variable Contracts”). Individuals may not purchase shares of the Portfolio directly. Shares of the Portfolio also may be sold to qualified pension and retirement plans outside of the separate account context.
We believe that bond funds have an important role to play in a well diversified investment portfolio. It is important to note, however, that in an environment where interest rates may trend upward, rising rates would negatively impact the performance of most bond funds, and fixed-income securities held by a fund are likely to decrease in value. The price volatility of fixed-income securities can also increase during periods of rising interest rates resulting in increased losses to a fund. Bond funds and individual bonds with a longer duration (a measure of the expected life of a security) tend to be more sensitive to changes in interest rates, usually making them more volatile than securities or funds with shorter durations. The longer-term performance of most bond funds has benefited from capital gains in part resulting from an extended period of declining interest rates. In the event interest rates increase, these capital gains should not be expected to recur.
The Portfolio may be subject to various risks in addition to those described above. Some of these risks may include, but are not limited to, the following: credit risk, high yield risk, market risk, issuer risk, liquidity risk, derivatives risk, mortgage risk, non-U.S. investment risk, currency risk, leveraging risk and management risk. A complete description of these risks is contained in the Portfolio’s prospectus. The Portfolio may use derivative instruments for hedging purposes or as part of an investment strategy. Use of these instruments may involve certain costs and risks such as liquidity risk, interest rate risk, market risk, credit risk, management risk and the risk that the Portfolio could not close out a position when it would be most advantageous to do so. A Portfolio investing in derivatives could lose more than the principal amount invested in these instruments. Investing in non-U.S. securities may entail risk due to non-U.S. economic and political developments; this risk may be increased when investing in emerging markets.
On the performance summary page in this Semiannual Report, the Total Return Investment Performance table measures performance assuming that all dividend and capital gain distributions were reinvested.
An investment in the Portfolio is not a deposit of a bank and is not guaranteed or insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. It is possible to lose money on investments in the Portfolio.
PIMCO has adopted written proxy voting policies and procedures (“Proxy Policy”) as required by Rule 206(4)-6 under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940. The Proxy Policy has been adopted by the Trust as the policies and procedures that PIMCO will use when voting proxies on behalf of the Portfolio. Copies of the written Proxy Policy and the factors that PIMCO may consider in determining how to vote proxies for the Portfolio, and information about how the Portfolio voted proxies relating to portfolio securities held during the most recent twelve-month period ended June 30, are available without charge, upon request, by calling the Trust at 1-866-746-2606 and on the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) website at http://www.sec.gov.
The Portfolio files its complete schedule of portfolio holdings with the SEC for the first and third quarters of each fiscal year on Form N-Q. A copy of the Trust’s Form N-Q is available on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov and may be reviewed and copied at the SEC’s Public Reference Room in Washington D.C. Information on the operation of the Public Reference Room may be obtained by calling 1-800-SEC-0330.
PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust is distributed by Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC, 2187 Atlantic Street, Stamford, CT 06902.

The following disclosure provides important information regarding the Portfolio’s Expense Example (“Example” or “Expense Example”), which appears in this Semiannual Report. Please refer to this information when reviewing the Expense Example for the Portfolio.
Example
As a shareholder of the Portfolio, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs and (2) ongoing costs, including advisory and administrative fees; distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees (Administrative Class only); and other Portfolio expenses. The Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Portfolio and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Expense Example does not reflect any fees or other expenses imposed by the Variable Contracts. If it did, the expenses reflected in the Expense Examples would be higher. The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period indicated, which is from January 1, 2006 to June 30, 2006.
Actual Expenses
The information in the table under the heading “Actual Performance” provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in these columns, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.60), then multiply the result by the number in the appropriate column for your share class, in the row titled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The information in the table under the heading “Hypothetical Performance (5% return before expenses)” provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Portfolio’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Portfolio’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Portfolio and other portfolios. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other portfolios.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs. Therefore, the information under the heading “Hypothetical Performance (5% return before expenses)” is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different portfolios. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.
The expense ratio may vary period to period because of various factors, such as an increase in expenses not covered by the advisory and administrative fees (such as expenses of the trustees and their counsel or litigation expense).
Portfolio Benchmark
Merrill Lynch US High Yield, BB-B Rated Constrained Index tracks the performance of BB-B Rated US Dollar-denominated corporate bonds publicly issued in the US domestic market. Qualifying bonds are capitalization-weighted provided the total allocation to an individual issuer (defined by Bloomberg tickers) does not exceed 2%. Issuers that exceed the limit are reduced to 2% and the face value of each of their bonds is adjusted on a pro-rata basis.

Past performance is no guarantee of future results. The performance quoted represents past performance. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so the Portfolio shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. The Portfolio’s performance does not reflect the deduction of additional charges and expenses imposed in connection with investing in Variable Contracts, which will reduce returns. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. Performance data current to the most recent month-end is available by calling (800) 927-4648.

† Expenses are equal to the Portfolio’s Administrative Class annualized expense ratio of 0.75%, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 181/365 (to reflect the one-half year period). Overall fees and expenses of investing in the Portfolio will be higher because the example does not reflect Variable Contract fees and expenses.
Please refer to page 3 herein for a description of the Portfolio’s benchmark and an explanation of the information presented in the above Expense Example.
Portfolio Insights
» | | The PIMCO High Yield Portfolio seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing under normal circumstances at least 80% of its assets in a diversified portfolio of high-yield securities rated below investment grade but rated at least Caa (subject to a maximum of 5% of total assets in securities rated Caa) by Moody’s or S&P, or, if unrated, determined by PIMCO to be of comparable quality. |
» | | An underweight to BB-rated bonds versus the index contributed to relative performance, as these issues underperformed B-rated bonds by about 1.50%. |
» | | An overweight to the automotive sector helped performance as these bonds significantly outperformed the high-yield market. |
» | | As cable/pay TV bonds outperformed the high- yield market, an overweight to the sector benefited the Portfolio. |
» | | Security selection in the utility sector was positive as electric generation companies led the overall sector. |
» | | As telecom bonds underperformed the market, an overweight to the sector negatively impacted the Portfolio’s performance. |
» | | As the energy sector was among the worst performing broad market sectors in the first half of the year, an overweight to this industry category detracted from returns. |
» | | Modest exposure to emerging market sovereign bonds, which underperformed high yield by about 3.75%, hurt performance. |

Notes to Financial Statements
1. ORGANIZATION
The High Yield Portfolio (the “Portfolio”) is a series of the PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust (the “Trust”). The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “Act”), as amended, as an open-end investment management company organized as a Delaware business trust on October 3, 1997. The Portfolio offers three classes of shares: Institutional, Administrative and Advisor. Information presented in these financial statements pertains to the Administrative Class of the Portfolio. Certain detailed financial information for the Institutional Class and Advisor Classes is provided separately and is available upon request. The Trust is designed to be used as an investment vehicle by Separate Accounts of insurance companies that fund variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies and by qualified pension and retirement plans.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Portfolio in the preparation of its financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Security Valuation. Portfolio securities are valued as of the close of regular trading (normally 4:00 p.m., Eastern Time) on each day that the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) is open. Portfolio securities and other assets for which market quotes are readily available are stated at market value. Market value is generally determined on the basis of last reported sales prices, or if no sales are reported, based on quotes obtained from a quotation reporting system, established market makers, or pricing services. Fixed-income securities and non-exchange traded derivatives are normally valued on the basis of quotes obtained from brokers and dealers or pricing services. Prices obtained from independent pricing services use information provided by market makers or estimates of market values obtained from yield data relating to investments or securities with similar characteristics. Certain fixed-income securities purchased on a delayed-delivery basis are marked to market daily until settlement at the forward settlement date. Short-term investments having a maturity of 60 days or less are generally valued at amortized cost. Exchange traded options, futures and options on futures are valued at the settlement price determined by the relevant exchange.
Investments initially valued in currencies other than the U.S. dollar are converted to the U.S. dollar using exchange rates obtained from pricing services. As a result, the NAV of the Portfolio’s shares may be affected by changes in the value of currencies in relation to the U.S. dollar. The value of securities traded in markets outside the United States or denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar may be affected significantly on a day that the NYSE is closed and an investor is not able to purchase, redeem or exchange shares.
Securities and other assets for which market quotes are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction. The Board of Trustees has adopted methods for valuing securities and other assets in circumstances where market quotes are not readily available, and has delegated to Pacific Investment Management Company LLC (“PIMCO”) the responsibility for applying the valuation methods. In the event that market quotes are not readily available, and the security or asset cannot be valued pursuant to one of the valuation methods, the value of the security or asset will be determined in good faith by the Valuation Committee of the Board of Trustees, generally based upon recommendations provided by PIMCO.
Market quotes are considered not readily available in circumstances where there is an absence of current or reliable market-based data (e.g., trade information, bid/asked information, broker quotes), including where events occur after the close of the relevant market, but prior to the close of regular trading, that materially affect the values of the Portfolio’s securities or assets. In addition, market quotes are considered not readily available when, due to extraordinary circumstances, the exchanges or markets on which the securities trade do not open for trading for the entire day and no other market prices are available. The Board has delegated to PIMCO the responsibility for monitoring significant events that may materially affect the values of the Portfolio’s securities or assets and for determining whether the value of the applicable securities or assets should be re-evaluated in light of such significant events when the Portfolio uses fair value pricing to determine its NAV, securities will not be priced on the basis of quotations from the primary market in which they are traded, but rather may be priced by another method that the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction believe accurately reflects fair value. The Trust’s policy is intended to result in a calculation of the Portfolio’s NAV that fairly reflects security values as of the time of pricing. However, fair values determined by the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction may not accurately reflect the price that the Portfolio could obtain for a security if it were to dispose of that security as of the time of pricing. Because foreign securities can trade on non-business days, the NAV of the Portfolio may change on days when shareholders will not be able to purchase or redeem shares. The prices used by the Portfolio may differ from the value that would be realized if the securities were sold and the differences could be material to the financial statements.
Securities Transactions and Investment Income. Securities transactions are recorded as of the trade date. Securities purchased or sold on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis may be settled a month or more after the trade date. Realized gains and losses from securities sold are recorded on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Portfolio is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, adjusted for the accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis. Paydown gains and losses on mortgage-related or asset-backed securities are recorded as components of interest income in the Statement of Operations.
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends from net investment income, if any, are declared on each day the Portfolio is open for business and are distributed to shareholders monthly. Net realized capital gains earned by the Portfolio, if any, will be distributed no less frequently than once each year. Most shareholders choose to reinvest their dividends and capital gain distribution in additional shares of the Portfolio.
Income dividends and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP. Differences between tax regulations and GAAP may change the fiscal year when income and capital items are recognized for tax and GAAP purposes. Examples of events that give rise to timing differences include wash sales, straddles, net operating losses and capital loss carryforwards. Further, the character of investment income and capital gains may be different for certain transactions under the two methods of accounting. Examples of characterization differences include the treatment of mortgage paydowns, swaps, foreign currency transactions and contingent debt instruments. As a result, income dividends and capital gain distributions declared during a fiscal period may differ significantly from the net investment income and realized capital gain reported in the Portfolio’s annual financial statements presented under GAAP.

Distributions classified as a tax basis return of capital, if any, are reflected in the accompanying Statements of Changes in Net Assets and have been reclassified to paid in capital. In addition, other amounts have been reclassified between undistributed net investment income, accumulated undistributed net realized gains or losses and/or paid in capital to more appropriately conform financial accounting to tax characterizations of dividend distributions.
Multiclass Operations. Each class offered by the Portfolio has equal rights as to assets and voting privileges (except that shareholders of a class have exclusive voting rights regarding any matter relating solely to that class of shares). Income and non-class specific expenses of the Portfolio are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative value of settled shares. Realized and unrealized capital gains and losses of the Portfolio are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative net assets of each class. Class specific expenses, where applicable, currently include administrative, distribution and servicing fees.
Bridge Debt Commitments. At the period ended June 30, 2006, the Portfolio had $2,008,182 in commitments outstanding to fund high-yield bridge debt. The Portfolio is entitled to a fee upon the expiration of the commitment period. The bridge debt terms approximate market rates at the time the commitment is entered into.
Loan Participants and Assignments. The Portfolio may invest in direct debt instruments which are interests in amounts owned by corporate, governmental, or other borrowers to lenders or lending syndicates. The Portfolio’s investments in loans may be in the form of participations in loans or assignments of all or a portion of loans from third parties. A loan is often administered by a bank or other financial institution (the “lender”) that acts as agent for all holders. The agent administers the terms of the loan, as specified in the loan agreement. When investing in a loan participation, the Portfolio has the right to receive payments of principal, interest and any fees to which it is entitled only from the lender selling the loan agreement and only upon receipt by the lender of payments from the borrower. The Portfolio generally has no right to enforce compliance with the terms of the loan agreement with the borrower. As a result, the Portfolio may be subject to the credit risk of both the borrower and the lender that is selling the loan agreement. When the Portfolio purchases assignments from lenders it acquires direct rights against the borrower on the loan. At the end of the period, the Portfolio had unfunded loan commitments of $2,008,182.
Delayed-Delivery Transactions. The Portfolio may purchase or sell securities on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis. These transactions involve a commitment by the Portfolio to purchase or sell securities for a predetermined price or yield, with payment and delivery taking place beyond the customary settlement period. When delayed-delivery purchases are outstanding, the Portfolio will designate liquid assets in an amount sufficient to meet the purchase price. When purchasing a security on a delayed-delivery basis, the Portfolio assumes the rights and risks of ownership of the security, including the risk of price and yield fluctuations, and takes such fluctuations into account when determining its net asset value. The Portfolio may dispose of or renegotiate a delayed-delivery transaction after it is entered into, and may sell when-issued securities before they are delivered, which may result in a capital gain or loss. When the Portfolio has sold a security on a delayed-delivery basis, the Portfolio does not participate in future gains and losses with respect to the security.
Federal Income Taxes. The Portfolio intends to qualify as a regulated investment company under sub-chapter M of the Internal Revenue Code and distribute all of its taxable income and net realized gains, if applicable, to shareholders. Accordingly, no provision for Federal income taxes has been made.
Foreign Currency. The accounting records of the Portfolio are maintained in U.S. dollar. The market values of foreign securities, currency holdings and other assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollar based on the current exchange rates each business day. Fluctuations in the value of currency holdings and other assets and liabilities resulting from changes in exchange rates are recorded as unrealized foreign currency gains or losses. Realized gains or losses and unrealized appreciation or depreciation on investment securities and income and expenses are translated on the respective dates of such transactions. The effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on investments in securities are not segregated in the Statement of Operations from the effects of changes in market prices of those securities, but are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss on investment securities.

Non-U.S. currency symbols utilized throughout the report are defined as follows: |

Forward Currency Transactions. The Portfolio may enter into forward currency contracts in connection with settling planned purchases or sales of securities, to hedge the currency exposure associated with some or all of the Portfolio’s securities or as a part of an investment strategy. A forward currency contract is an agreement between two parties to buy and sell a currency at a set price on a future date. The market value of a forward currency contract fluctuates with changes in forward currency exchange rates. Forward currency contracts are marked to market daily and the change in value is recorded by the Portfolio as an unrealized gain or loss. Realized gains or losses equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed are recorded upon delivery or receipt of the currency or, if a forward currency contract is offset by entering into another forward currency contract with the same broker, upon settlement of the net gain or loss. These contracts may involve market risk in excess of the unrealized gain or loss reflected in the Portfolio’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities. In addition, the Portfolio could be exposed to risk if the counterparties are unable to meet the terms of the contracts or if the value of the currency changes unfavorably to the U.S. dollar.
Futures Contracts. The Portfolio is authorized to enter into futures contracts. The Portfolio may use futures contracts to manage its exposure to the securities markets or to movements in interest rates and currency values. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are the imperfect correlation between the change in market value of the securities held by the Portfolio and the prices of futures contracts, the possibility of an illiquid market, and the inability of the counterparty to meet the terms of the contract. Futures contracts are valued based upon their quoted daily settlement prices. Upon entering into a futures contract, the Portfolio is required to deposit with its custodian, in a segregated account in the name of the futures broker, an amount of cash or U.S. Government and Agency Obligations in accordance with the initial margin requirements of the broker or exchange. Futures contracts are marked to market daily and an appropriate payable or receivable for the change in value (“variation margin”) is recorded by the Portfolio. Gains or losses are recognized but not considered realized until the contracts expire or are closed. Futures contracts involve, to varying degrees, risk of loss in excess of the variation margin disclosed in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
Payment In-Kind Securities. The portfolio may invest in payment in-kind securities. Payment in-kind securities (PIKs) give the issuer the option at each interest payment date of making interest payments in either cash or additional debt securities. Those additional debt securities usually have the same term, including maturity dates and interest rates, and associated risks as the original bonds. The daily market quotations of the original bonds include the accrued

Notes to Financial Statements (Cont.)
interest (referred to as a dirty price) and require a pro-rata adjustment from interest receivable to the unrealized appreciation or depreciation on investment in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities.
Options Contracts. The Portfolio may write call and put options on futures, swaps, securities or currencies it owns or in which it may invest. Writing put options tends to increase the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. Writing call options tends to decrease the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. When the Portfolio writes a call or put option, an amount equal to the premium received is recorded as a liability and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the option written. These liabilities are reflected as written options outstanding in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Certain options may be written with premiums to determined on a future date. The premiums for these options are based upon implied volatility parameters at specified terms. Premiums received from writing options which expire are treated as realized gains. Premiums received from writing options which are exercised or closed are added to the proceeds or offset against amounts paid on the underlying future, swap, security or currency transaction to determine the realized gain or loss. The Portfolio as a writer of an option has no control over whether the underlying future, swap, security or currency may be sold (call) or purchased (put) and as a result bears the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the future, swap, security or currency underlying the written option. There is the risk the Portfolio may not be able to enter into a closing transaction because of an illiquid market.
The Portfolio may also purchase put and call options. Purchasing call options tends to increase the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. Purchasing put options tends to decrease the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. The Portfolio pays a premium which is included in the Portfolio’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an investment and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the option. Premiums paid for purchasing options which expire are treated as realized losses. The risk associated with purchasing put and call options is limited to the premium paid. Certain options may be purchased with premiums to be determined on a future date. The premiums for these options are based upon implied volatility parameters at specified terms. Premiums paid for purchasing options which are exercised or closed are added to the amounts paid or offset against the proceeds on the underlying future, swap, security or currency transaction to determine the realized gain or loss.
Repurchase Agreements. The Portfolio may engage in repurchase transactions. Under the terms of a typical repurchase agreement, the Portfolio takes possession of an underlying debt obligation subject to an obligation of the seller to repurchase, and the Portfolio to resell, the obligation at an agreed-upon price and time. The market value of the collateral must be equal to or exceed at all times the total amount of the repurchase obligations, including interest. Securities purchased under repurchase agreements are reflected as an asset in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Generally, in the event of counterparty default, the Portfolio has the right to use the collateral to offset losses incurred. If the counterparty should default, the Portfolio will seek to sell the securities which it holds as collateral. This could involve procedural costs or delays in addition to a loss on the securities if their value should fall below their repurchase price.
Restricted Securities. The Portfolio is permitted to invest in securities that are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale. These securities generally may be resold in transactions exempt from registration or to the public if the securities are registered. Disposal of these securities may involve time-consuming negotiations and expenses, and prompt sale at an acceptable price may be difficult.
Swap Agreements. The Portfolio may engage in swap transactions, including, but not limited to, swap agreements on credit default to manage its exposure to interest rates and credit risk. In connection with these agreements, securities may be identified as collateral in accordance with the terms of the respective swap agreements.
Credit default swap agreements involve one party making a stream of payments to another party in exchange for the right to receive a specified return in the event of a default by a third party, typically corporate issues or sovereign issues of an emerging country, on its obligation. The Portfolio may use credit default swaps to provide a measure of protection against defaults of the issuers (i.e., to reduce risk where the Portfolio owns or has exposure to the sovereign issuer) or to take an active long or short position with respect to the likelihood of a particular issuer’s default. As a seller of protection, the Portfolio generally receives an upfront payment or a fixed rate of income throughout the term of the swap provided that there is no credit event. If the Portfolio is a seller of protection and a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement, the Portfolio will pay to the buyer of the protection an amount up to the notional value of the swap and in certain instances take delivery of the security. As the seller, the Portfolio would effectively add leverage to its portfolio because, in addition to its total net assets, the Portfolio would be subject to investment exposure on the notional amount of the swap. As a buyer of protection, the Portfolio generally receives an amount up to the notional value of the swap if a credit event occurs. The treatment of a credit default swaps and other swap agreements that provide for contingent, non-periodic, bullet-type payments as “notional principal contracts” for federal income tax purposes is uncertain. Were the Internal Revenue Service in take the position that a credit default swap or other bullet-type swap is not a “notional principal contract” for federal income tax purposes, payments received by the Portfolio from such investments might be subject to income taxes.
Swaps are marked to market daily based upon quotations from market makers and the change in value, if any, is recorded as unrealized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Payments received or made at the beginning of the measurement period are reflected as such in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. These upfront payments are recorded as realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations upon termination or maturity of the swap. A liquidation payment received or made at the termination of the swap is recorded as realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Net periodic payments received or paid by the Portfolio are included as part of realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Entering into these agreements involves, to varying degrees, elements of credit, market and documentation risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Such risks involve the possibility that there will be no liquid market for these agreements, that the counterparty to the agreements may default on its obligation to perform or disagree as to the meaning of contractual terms in the agreements and that there may be unfavorable changes in interest rates.
Guarantees and Indemnifications. Under the Trust’s organizational documents, each Trustee, officer, employee or other agent of the Trust (including the Trust’s investment manager) is indemnified against certain liabilities that may arise out of performance of their duties to the Portfolio. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Portfolio enters into contracts that contain a variety of indemnification clauses. The Portfolio’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Portfolio that have not yet occurred. However, the Portfolio has not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts, and believes the risk of loss to be remote.
New Accounting Policies. In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes—an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (the “Interpretation”). The Interpretation is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. Management is currently evaluating the application of the Interpretation to the Portfolio and will provide additional information in relation to the Interpretation in the Portfolio’s annual financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2006.
3. FEES, EXPENSES, AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Investment Advisory Fee. PIMCO is a majority-owned subsidiary of Allianz Global Investors of America L.P. (“AGI”), and serves as investment adviser (the
| | | | |
16 | | PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust | | |
| | |
| |
| | June 30, 2006 (Unaudited) |
“Adviser”) to the Trust, pursuant to an investment advisory contract. The Adviser receives a monthly fee at an annual rate based on average daily net assets of the Portfolio. The Advisory Fee is charged at an annual rate of 0.25%.
Administration Fee. PIMCO serves as administrator (the “Administrator”), and provides administrative services to the Trust for which it receives a monthly administrative fee based on average daily net assets of the Portfolio. As the Administrator, PIMCO bears the costs of various third-party services, including audit, custodial, portfolio accounting, legal, transfer agency and printing costs. The Administration Fee is charged at the annual rate of 0.35%.
Distribution and Servicing Fees. Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC (“AGID”) is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of AGI and serves as the distributor of the Trust’s shares. The Trust is permitted to reimburse AGID on a quarterly basis, out of the Administrative Class assets of the Portfolio in the amount of 0.15% on an annual basis of the average daily net assets of that class, for payments made to financial intermediaries that provide services in connection with the distribution of shares or administration of plans or programs that use Portfolio shares as their funding medium. The effective rate paid to AGID was 0.15% during the current fiscal year.
Expenses. The Trust is responsible for the following expenses: (i) salaries and other compensation of any of the Trust’s executive officers and employees who are not officers, directors, stockholders or employees of PIMCO or its subsidiaries or affiliates; (ii) taxes and governmental fees; (iii) brokerage fees and commissions and other portfolio transaction expenses; (iv) the costs of borrowing money, including interest expenses and bank overdraft charges; (v) fees and expenses of the Trustees who are not “interested persons” of PIMCO or the Trust, and any counsel retained exclusively for their benefit; (vi) extraordinary expenses, including costs of litigation and indemnification expenses; (vii) organization expenses and (viii) any expenses allocated or allocable to a specific class of shares, which include service fees payable with respect to the Administrative Class shares and may include certain other expenses as permitted by the Trust’s Multiple Class Plan adopted pursuant to Rule 18f-3 under the Act and subject to review and approval by the Trustees. The ratio of expenses to average net assets per share class, as disclosed in the Financial Highlights, may differ from the annual portfolio operating expenses per share class as disclosed in the Prospectus for the reasons set forth above.
For the current period ended June 30, 2006, each unaffiliated Trustee received an annual retainer of $15,000, plus $2,000 for each Board of Trustees quarterly meeting attended, $500 for each Board of Trustees committee meeting attended and $500 for each special board meeting attended, plus reimbursement of related expenses. In addition, each Committee Chair received an additional annual retainer of $500 and each Audit Committee Chair received an additional annual retainer of $1,500. These expenses are allocated on a pro-rata basis to each Portfolio of the Trust according to its respective net assets. The Trust pays no compensation directly to any Trustee or any other officer who is affiliated with the Administrator, all of whom receive remuneration for their services to the Trust from the Administrator or its affiliates.
4. PURCHASES AND SALES OF SECURITIES
The length of time the Portfolio has held a particular security is not generally a consideration in investment decisions. A change in the securities held by the Portfolio is known as “portfolio turnover”. The Portfolio may engage in frequent and active trading of portfolio securities to achieve its investment objective, particularly during periods of volatile market movements. High portfolio turnover (e.g., over 100%) involves correspondingly greater expenses to the Portfolio, including brokerage commissions or dealer mark-ups and other transaction costs on the sale of securities and reinvestments in other securities. Such sales may also result in realization of taxable capital gains, including short-term capital gains (which are generally taxed at ordinary income tax rates). The trading costs and tax effects associated with portfolio turnover may adversely affect the Portfolio’s performance.
Purchases and sales of securities (excluding short-term investments) for the period ended June 30, 2006 were as follows (amounts in thousands):

Notes to Financial Statements (Cont.)
7. FEDERAL INCOME TAX MATTERS
As of June 30, 2006, the aggregate cost of investments was the same for federal income tax and financial statement purposes. The net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of investment securities for federal income tax purposes is as follows (amounts in thousands):
| | | | |
Aggregate Gross Unrealized Appreciation | | Aggregate Gross Unrealized (Depreciation) | | Net Unrealized (Depreciation) |
$ 5,358 | | $ (11,001) | | $ (5,643) |
8. REGULATORY AND LITIGATION MATTERS
On June 1, 2004, the Attorney General of the State of New Jersey announced that it had dismissed PIMCO from a complaint filed by the New Jersey Attorney General on February 17, 2004, and that it had entered into a settlement agreement (the “New Jersey Settlement”) with Allianz Global Investors of America L.P. (“AGI”) (formerly known as Allianz Dresdner Asset Management of America L.P.), PEA Capital LLC (an entity affiliated with PIMCO through common ownership) (“PEA”) and Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC (“AGID”), in connection with the same matter. In the New Jersey Settlement, AGI, PEA and AGID neither admitted nor denied the allegations or conclusions of law, but did agree to pay New Jersey a civil fine of $15 million and $3 million for investigative costs and further potential enforcement initiatives against unrelated parties. They also undertook to implement certain governance changes. The complaint relating to the New Jersey Settlement alleged, among other things, that AGI, PEA and AGID had failed to disclose that they improperly allowed certain hedge funds to engage in “market timing” in certain funds. The complaint sought injunctive relief, civil monetary penalties, restitution and disgorgement of profits.
Since February 2004, PIMCO, AGI, PEA, AGID, and certain of their affiliates, including the PIMCO Funds, the Allianz Funds (formerly known as PIMCO Funds: Multi-Manager Series), and the Trustees and employees of the PIMCO Funds, have been named as defendants in fifteen lawsuits filed in various jurisdictions. Eleven of those lawsuits concern “market timing,” and they have been transferred to and consolidated for pre-trial proceedings in a multi-district litigation proceeding in the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland; the other four lawsuits concern “revenue sharing” and have been consolidated into a single action in the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut. The lawsuits have been commenced as putative class actions on behalf of investors who purchased, held or redeemed shares of the various series of the PIMCO Funds and the Allianz Funds during specified periods, or as derivative actions on behalf of the PIMCO Funds and Allianz Funds.
The market timing actions in the District of Maryland generally allege that certain hedge funds were allowed to engage in “market timing” in certain of the PIMCO Funds and the Allianz Funds and this alleged activity was not disclosed. Pursuant to tolling agreements entered into with the derivative and class action plaintiffs, PIMCO, the Trustees, and certain employees of PIMCO who were previously named as defendants have all been dropped as defendants in the market timing actions; the plaintiffs continue to assert claims on behalf of the shareholders of the PIMCO Funds or on behalf of the PIMCO Funds themselves against other defendants. By order dated November 3, 2005, the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland granted the PIMCO Funds’ motion to dismiss claims asserted against it in a consolidated amended complaint where the PIMCO Funds were named, in the complaint, as a nominal defendant. The revenue sharing action in the District of Connecticut generally alleges that fund assets were inappropriately used to pay brokers to promote PIMCO Funds and the Allianz Funds, including directing fund brokerage transactions to such brokers, and that such alleged arrangements were not fully disclosed to shareholders. On August 11, 2005 the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut conducted a hearing on defendants’ motion to dismiss the consolidated amended complaint in the revenue sharing action but has not yet ruled on the motion to dismiss. The market timing and revenue sharing lawsuits seek, among other things, unspecified compensatory damages plus interest and, in some cases, punitive damages, the rescission of investment advisory contracts, the return of fees paid under those contracts and restitution.
Under Section 9(a) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“1940 Act”), if the New Jersey Settlement or any of the lawsuits described above were to result in a court injunction against AGI, PEA, AGID and/or their affiliates, PIMCO could, in the absence of exemptive relief granted by the SEC, be barred from serving as an investment adviser, and AGID could be barred from serving as principal underwriter, to any registered investment company, including the Portfolios of the Trust. In connection with an inquiry from the SEC concerning the status of the New Jersey Settlement under Section 9(a), PEA, AGID, AGI and certain of their affiliates (including PIMCO) (together, the “Applicants”) have sought exemptive relief from the SEC under Section 9(c) of the 1940 Act. The SEC has granted the Applicants a temporary exemption from the provisions of Section 9(a) with respect to the New Jersey Settlement until the earlier of (i) September 13, 2006 and (ii) the date on which the SEC takes final action on their application for a permanent order. There is no assurance that the SEC will issue a permanent order.
Two nearly identical class action civil complaints have been filed in August 2005, in the Northern District of Illinois Eastern Division alleging that the plaintiffs each purchased and sold a 10-year Treasury note futures contract and suffered damages from an alleged shortage when PIMCO held both physical and futures positions in 10-year Treasury notes for its client accounts. The two actions have been consolidated into one action, and the two separate complaints have been replaced by a consolidated complaint. PIMCO is a named defendant, and the PIMCO Funds have been added as a defendant, to the consolidated action. PIMCO strongly believes the complaint (and any consolidated complaint filed hereafter) is without merit and intends to vigorously defend itself.
Certain Portfolios of the Trust were recently served in an adversary proceeding brought by the Official Committee of Asbestos Claimants of G-I Holdings, Inc. in G-I Holdings, Inc.’s bankruptcy in the District of New Jersey. PIMCO was previously named in this lawsuit and remains a defendant. The plaintiff seeks to recover for the bankruptcy estate assets that were transferred by the predecessor entity of G-I Holdings, Inc. to a wholly-owned subsidiary in 1994. The subsidiary has since issued notes, of which certain Portfolios of the Trust are alleged to be holders. The complaint alleges that in 2000, more than two hundred noteholders—including certain Portfolios of the Trust—were granted a second priority lien on the assets of the subsidiary in exchange for their consent to a refinancing transaction and the granting of a first priority lien to the lending banks. The plaintiff is seeking invalidation of the lien in favor of the noteholders and/or the value of the lien.
It is possible that these matters and/or other developments resulting from these matters could result in increased fund redemptions or other adverse consequences to the Portfolios. However, PIMCO and AGID believe that these matters are not likely to have a material adverse effect on the Portfolios or on PIMCO’s or AGID’s ability to perform their respective investment advisory or distribution services relating to the Portfolios.

Chairman’s Letter
Dear PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust Shareholder:
It is our pleasure to present to you the semiannual report for the PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust covering the six-month period ended June 30, 2006.
Highlights of the global bond markets during the six-month period included:
| n | | Most fixed-income sectors lost ground during the first half of 2006, as concern about accelerating inflation and central bank tightening pushed interest rates higher worldwide. The benchmark Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index (which includes Treasury, Investment-Grade Corporate, and Residential Mortgage-Backed Securities) returned -0.72% for the first six months of the year. On June 30, the benchmark ten-year Treasury yielded 5.14%, 0.75% higher than at the start of the year. The U.S. yield curve remained flat as shorter-maturity yields rose by a comparable amount. |
| n | | The Federal Reserve tightened four times during the reporting period, bringing the Federal Funds Rate to 5.25%. The increase near the end of the period was the Federal Reserve’s 17th consecutive rate hike since the start of its tightening cycle in 2004. The Federal Reserve was not alone, as central banks in Europe, India, and China tightened credit in unison for the first time since 2000. The Bank of Japan, whose zero-interest-rate policy has flooded global markets with liquidity, looked set to reverse this policy in the coming months. |
In these pages please find a more complete Portfolio review as it relates to financial-market activities, as well as details about total-return investment performance for the six-month reporting period. Thank you for the trust you have placed in us. We will continue to work diligently to meet your investment needs.
Sincerely,

Brent R. Harris
Chairman, PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust

Important Information About the Portfolio
PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust (the “Trust”) is an open-end management investment company currently consisting of nineteen separate investment portfolios, including the High Yield Portfolio (the “Portfolio”). The Portfolio is only available as a funding vehicle under variable life insurance policies or variable annuity contracts issued by insurance companies (“Variable Contracts”). Individuals may not purchase shares of the Portfolio directly. Shares of the Portfolio also may be sold to qualified pension and retirement plans outside of the separate account context.
We believe that bond funds have an important role to play in a well diversified investment portfolio. It is important to note, however, that in an environment where interest rates may trend upward, rising rates would negatively impact the performance of most bond funds, and fixed-income securities held by a fund are likely to decrease in value. The price volatility of fixed-income securities can also increase during periods of rising interest rates resulting in increased losses to a fund. Bond funds and individual bonds with a longer duration (a measure of the expected life of a security) tend to be more sensitive to changes in interest rates, usually making them more volatile than securities or funds with shorter durations. The longer-term performance of most bond funds has benefited from capital gains in part resulting from an extended period of declining interest rates. In the event interest rates increase, these capital gains should not be expected to recur.
The Portfolio may be subject to various risks in addition to those described above. Some of these risks may include, but are not limited to, the following: credit risk, high yield risk, market risk, issuer risk, liquidity risk, derivatives risk, mortgage risk, non-U.S. investment risk, currency risk, leveraging risk and management risk. A complete description of these risks is contained in the Portfolio’s prospectus. The Portfolio may use derivative instruments for hedging purposes or as part of an investment strategy. Use of these instruments may involve certain costs and risks such as liquidity risk, interest rate risk, market risk, credit risk, management risk and the risk that the Portfolio could not close out a position when it would be most advantageous to do so. A Portfolio investing in derivatives could lose more than the principal amount invested in these instruments. Investing in non-U.S. securities may entail risk due to non-U.S. economic and political developments; this risk may be increased when investing in emerging markets.
On the performance summary page in this Semiannual Report, the Total Return Investment Performance table measures performance assuming that all dividend and capital gain distributions were reinvested.
An investment in the Portfolio is not a deposit of a bank and is not guaranteed or insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. It is possible to lose money on investments in the Portfolio.
PIMCO has adopted written proxy voting policies and procedures (“Proxy Policy”) as required by Rule 206(4)-6 under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940. The Proxy Policy has been adopted by the Trust as the policies and procedures that PIMCO will use when voting proxies on behalf of the Portfolio. Copies of the written Proxy Policy and the factors that PIMCO may consider in determining how to vote proxies for the Portfolio, and information about how the Portfolio voted proxies relating to portfolio securities held during the most recent twelve-month period ended June 30, are available without charge, upon request, by calling the Trust at 1-866-746-2606 and on the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) website at http://www.sec.gov.
The Portfolio files its complete schedule of portfolio holdings with the SEC for the first and third quarters of each fiscal year on Form N-Q. A copy of the Trust’s Form N-Q is available on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov and may be reviewed and copied at the SEC’s Public Reference Room in Washington D.C. Information on the operation of the Public Reference Room may be obtained by calling 1-800-SEC-0330.

The following disclosure provides important information regarding the Portfolio’s Expense Example (“Example” or “Expense Example”), which appears in this Semiannual Report. Please refer to this information when reviewing the Expense Example for the Portfolio.
Example
As a shareholder of the Portfolio, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs and (2) ongoing costs, including advisory and administrative fees; distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees (Administrative Class only); and other Portfolio expenses. The Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Portfolio and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Expense Example does not reflect any fees or other expenses imposed by the Variable Contracts. If it did, the expenses reflected in the Expense Examples would be higher. The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period indicated, which is from January 1, 2006 to June 30, 2006.
Actual Expenses
The information in the table under the heading “Actual Performance” provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in these columns, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.60), then multiply the result by the number in the appropriate column for your share class, in the row titled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The information in the table under the heading “Hypothetical Performance (5% return before expenses)” provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Portfolio’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Portfolio’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Portfolio and other portfolios. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other portfolios.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs. Therefore, the information under the heading “Hypothetical Performance (5% return before expenses)” is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different portfolios. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.
The expense ratio may vary period to period because of various factors, such as an increase in expenses not covered by the advisory and administrative fees (such as expenses of the trustees and their counsel or litigation expense).
Portfolio Benchmark
Merrill Lynch US High Yield, BB-B Rated Constrained Index tracks the performance of BB-B Rated US Dollar-denominated corporate bonds publicly issued in the US domestic market. Qualifying bonds are capitalization-weighted provided the total allocation to an individual issuer (defined by Bloomberg tickers) does not exceed 2%. Issuers that exceed the limit are reduced to 2% and the face value of each of their bonds is adjusted on a pro-rata basis.

Past performance is no guarantee of future results. The performance quoted represents past performance. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so the Portfolio shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. The Portfolio’s performance does not reflect the deduction of additional charges and expenses imposed in connection with investing in Variable Contracts, which will reduce returns. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. Performance data current to the most recent month-end is available by calling (800) 927-4648.

† Expenses are equal to the Portfolio’s Institutional Class annualized expense ratio of 0.60%, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 181/365 (to reflect the one-half year period). Overall fees and expenses of investing in the Portfolio will be higher because the example does not reflect Variable Contract fees and expenses.

Portfolio Insights
» | | The PIMCO High Yield Portfolio seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing under normal circumstances at least 80% of its assets in a diversified portfolio of high-yield securities rated below investment grade but rated at least Caa (subject to a maximum of 5% of total assets in securities rated Caa) by Moody’s or S&P, or, if unrated, determined by PIMCO to be of comparable quality. |
» | | An underweight to BB-rated bonds versus the index contributed to relative performance, as these issues underperformed B-rated bonds by about 1.50%. |
» | | An overweight to the automotive sector helped performance as these bonds significantly outperformed the high-yield market. |
» | | As cable/pay TV bonds outperformed the high- yield market, an overweight to the sector benefited the Portfolio. |
» | | Security selection in the utility sector was positive as electric generation companies led the overall sector. |
» | | As telecom bonds underperformed the market, an overweight to the sector negatively impacted the Portfolio’s performance. |
» | | As the energy sector was among the worst performing broad market sectors in the first half of the year, an overweight to this industry category detracted from returns. |
» | | Modest exposure to emerging market sovereign bonds, which underperformed high yield by about 3.75%, hurt performance. |

Notes to Financial Statements
1. ORGANIZATION
The High Yield Portfolio (the “Portfolio”) is a series of the PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust (the “Trust”). The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “Act”), as amended, as an open-end investment management company organized as a Delaware business trust on October 3, 1997. The Portfolio offers three classes of shares: Institutional, Administrative and Advisor. Information presented in these financial statements pertains to the Institutional Class of the Portfolio. Certain detailed financial information for the Administrative Class and Advisor Class is provided separately and is available upon request. The Trust is designed to be used as an investment vehicle by Separate Accounts of insurance companies that fund variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies and by qualified pension and retirement plans.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Portfolio in the preparation of its financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Security Valuation. Portfolio securities are valued as of the close of regular trading (normally 4:00 p.m., Eastern Time) on each day that the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) is open. Portfolio securities and other assets for which market quotes are readily available are stated at market value. Market value is generally determined on the basis of last reported sales prices, or if no sales are reported, based on quotes obtained from a quotation reporting system, established market makers, or pricing services. Fixed-income securities and non-exchange traded derivatives are normally valued on the basis of quotes obtained from brokers and dealers or pricing services. Prices obtained from independent pricing services use information provided by market makers or estimates of market values obtained from yield data relating to investments or securities with similar characteristics. Certain fixed-income securities purchased on a delayed-delivery basis are marked to market daily until settlement at the forward settlement date. Short-term investments having a maturity of 60 days or less are generally valued at amortized cost. Exchange traded options, futures and options on futures are valued at the settlement price determined by the relevant exchange.
Investments initially valued in currencies other than the U.S. dollar are converted to the U.S. dollar using exchange rates obtained from pricing services. As a result, the NAV of the Portfolio’s shares may be affected by changes in the value of currencies in relation to the U.S. dollar. The value of securities traded in markets outside the United States or denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar may be affected significantly on a day that the NYSE is closed and an investor is not able to purchase, redeem or exchange shares.
Securities and other assets for which market quotes are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction. The Board of Trustees has adopted methods for valuing securities and other assets in circumstances where market quotes are not readily available, and has delegated to Pacific Investment Management Company LLC (“PIMCO”) the responsibility for applying the valuation methods. In the event that market quotes are not readily available, and the security or asset cannot be valued pursuant to one of the valuation methods, the value of the security or asset will be determined in good faith by the Valuation Committee of the Board of Trustees, generally based upon recommendations provided by PIMCO.
Market quotes are considered not readily available in circumstances where there is an absence of current or reliable market-based data (e.g., trade information, bid/asked information, broker quotes), including where events occur after the close of the relevant market, but prior to the close of regular trading, that materially affect the values of the Portfolio’s securities or assets. In addition, market quotes are considered not readily available when, due to extraordinary circumstances, the exchanges or markets on which the securities trade do not open for trading for the entire day and no other market prices are available. The Board has delegated to PIMCO the responsibility for monitoring significant events that may materially affect the values of the Portfolio’s securities or assets and for determining whether the value of the applicable securities or assets should be re-evaluated in light of such significant events when the Portfolio uses fair value pricing to determine its NAV, securities will not be priced on the basis of quotations from the primary market in which they are traded, but rather may be priced by another method that the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction believe accurately reflects fair value. The Trust’s policy is intended to result in a calculation of the Portfolio’s NAV that fairly reflects security values as of the time of pricing. However, fair values determined by the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction may not accurately reflect the price that the Portfolio could obtain for a security if it were to dispose of that security as of the time of pricing. Because foreign securities can trade on non-business days, the NAV of the Portfolio may change on days when shareholders will not be able to purchase or redeem shares. The prices used by the Portfolio may differ from the value that would be realized if the securities were sold and the differences could be material to the financial statements.
Securities Transactions and Investment Income. Securities transactions are recorded as of the trade date. Securities purchased or sold on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis may be settled a month or more after the trade date. Realized gains and losses from securities sold are recorded on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Portfolio is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, adjusted for the accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis. Paydown gains and losses on mortgage-related or asset-backed securities are recorded as components of interest income in the Statement of Operations.
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends from net investment income, if any, are declared on each day the Portfolio is open for business and are distributed to shareholders monthly. Net realized capital gains earned by the Portfolio, if any, will be distributed no less frequently than once each year. Most shareholders choose to reinvest their dividends and capital gain distribution in additional shares of the Portfolio.
Income dividends and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP. Differences between tax regulations and GAAP may change the fiscal year when income and capital items are recognized for tax and GAAP purposes. Examples of events that give rise to timing differences include wash sales, straddles, net operating losses and capital loss carryforwards. Further, the character of investment income and capital gains may be different for certain transactions under the two methods of accounting. Examples of characterization differences include the treatment of mortgage paydowns, swaps, foreign currency transactions and contingent debt instruments. As a result, income dividends and capital gain distributions declared during a fiscal period may differ significantly from the net investment income and realized capital gain reported in the Portfolio’s annual financial statements presented under GAAP.

| | June 30, 2006 (Unaudited) |
Distributions classified as a tax basis return of capital, if any, are reflected in the accompanying Statements of Changes in Net Assets and have been reclassified to paid in capital. In addition, other amounts have been reclassified between undistributed net investment income, accumulated undistributed net realized gains or losses and/or paid in capital to more appropriately conform financial accounting to tax characterizations of dividend distributions.
Multiclass Operations. Each class offered by the Portfolio has equal rights as to assets and voting privileges (except that shareholders of a class have exclusive voting rights regarding any matter relating solely to that class of shares). Income and non-class specific expenses of the Portfolio are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative value of settled shares. Realized and unrealized capital gains and losses of the Portfolio are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative net assets of each class. Class specific expenses, where applicable, currently include administrative, distribution and servicing fees.
Bridge Debt Commitments. At the period ended June 30, 2006, the Portfolio had $2,008,182 in commitments outstanding to fund high-yield bridge debt. The Portfolio is entitled to a fee upon the expiration of the commitment period. The bridge debt terms approximate market rates at the time the commitment is entered into.
Loan Participants and Assignments. The Portfolio may invest in direct debt instruments which are interests in amounts owned by corporate, governmental, or other borrowers to lenders or lending syndicates. The Portfolio’s investments in loans may be in the form of participations in loans or assignments of all or a portion of loans from third parties. A loan is often administered by a bank or other financial institution (the “lender”) that acts as agent for all holders. The agent administers the terms of the loan, as specified in the loan agreement. When investing in a loan participation, the Portfolio has the right to receive payments of principal, interest and any fees to which it is entitled only from the lender selling the loan agreement and only upon receipt by the lender of payments from the borrower. The Portfolio generally has no right to enforce compliance with the terms of the loan agreement with the borrower. As a result, the Portfolio may be subject to the credit risk of both the borrower and the lender that is selling the loan agreement. When the Portfolio purchases assignments from lenders it acquires direct rights against the borrower on the loan. At the end of the period, the Portfolio had unfunded loan commitments of $2,008,182.
Delayed-Delivery Transactions. The Portfolio may purchase or sell securities on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis. These transactions involve a commitment by the Portfolio to purchase or sell securities for a predetermined price or yield, with payment and delivery taking place beyond the customary settlement period. When delayed-delivery purchases are outstanding, the Portfolio will designate liquid assets in an amount sufficient to meet the purchase price. When purchasing a security on a delayed-delivery basis, the Portfolio assumes the rights and risks of ownership of the security, including the risk of price and yield fluctuations, and takes such fluctuations into account when determining its net asset value. The Portfolio may dispose of or renegotiate a delayed-delivery transaction after it is entered into, and may sell when-issued securities before they are delivered, which may result in a capital gain or loss. When the Portfolio has sold a security on a delayed-delivery basis, the Portfolio does not participate in future gains and losses with respect to the security.
Federal Income Taxes. The Portfolio intends to qualify as a regulated investment company under sub-chapter M of the Internal Revenue Code and distribute all of its taxable income and net realized gains, if applicable, to shareholders. Accordingly, no provision for Federal income taxes has been made.
Foreign Currency. The accounting records of the Portfolio are maintained in U.S. dollar. The market values of foreign securities, currency holdings and other assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollar based on the current exchange rates each business day. Fluctuations in the value of currency holdings and other assets and liabilities resulting from changes in exchange rates are recorded as unrealized foreign currency gains or losses. Realized gains or losses and unrealized appreciation or depreciation on investment securities and income and expenses are translated on the respective dates of such transactions. The effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on investments in securities are not segregated in the Statement of Operations from the effects of changes in market prices of those securities, but are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss on investment securities.

The Portfolio may enter into forward currency contracts in connection with settling planned purchases or sales of securities, to hedge the currency exposure associated with some or all of the Portfolio’s securities or as a part of an investment strategy. A forward currency contract is an agreement between two parties to buy and sell a currency at a set price on a future date. The market value of a forward currency contract fluctuates with changes in forward currency exchange rates. Forward currency contracts are marked to market daily and the change in value is recorded by the Portfolio as an unrealized gain or loss. Realized gains or losses equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed are recorded upon delivery or receipt of the currency or, if a forward currency contract is offset by entering into another forward currency contract with the same broker, upon settlement of the net gain or loss. These contracts may involve market risk in excess of the unrealized gain or loss reflected in the Portfolio’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities. In addition, the Portfolio could be exposed to risk if the counterparties are unable to meet the terms of the contracts or if the value of the currency changes unfavorably to the U.S. dollar.
Futures Contracts. The Portfolio is authorized to enter into futures contracts. The Portfolio may use futures contracts to manage its exposure to the securities markets or to movements in interest rates and currency values. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are the imperfect correlation between the change in market value of the securities held by the Portfolio and the prices of futures contracts, the possibility of an illiquid market, and the inability of the counterparty to meet the terms of the contract. Futures contracts are valued based upon their quoted daily settlement prices. Upon entering into a futures contract, the Portfolio is required to deposit with its custodian, in a segregated account in the name of the futures broker, an amount of cash or U.S. Government and Agency Obligations in accordance with the initial margin requirements of the broker or exchange. Futures contracts are marked to market daily and an appropriate payable or receivable for the change in value (“variation margin”) is recorded by the Portfolio. Gains or losses are recognized but not considered realized until the contracts expire or are closed. Futures contracts involve, to varying degrees, risk of loss in excess of the variation margin disclosed in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
Payment In-Kind Securities. The portfolio may invest in payment in-kind securities. Payment in-kind securities (PIKs) give the issuer the option at each interest payment date of making interest payments in either cash or additional debt securities. Those additional debt securities usually have the same term, including maturity dates and interest rates, and associated risks as the original bonds. The daily market quotations of the original bonds include the accrued

Notes to Financial Statements (Cont.)
interest (referred to as a dirty price) and require a pro-rata adjustment from interest receivable to the unrealized appreciation or depreciation on investment in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities.
Options Contracts. The Portfolio may write call and put options on futures, swaps, securities or currencies it owns or in which it may invest. Writing put options tends to increase the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. Writing call options tends to decrease the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. When the Portfolio writes a call or put option, an amount equal to the premium received is recorded as a liability and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the option written. These liabilities are reflected as written options outstanding in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Certain options may be written with premiums to determined on a future date. The premiums for these options are based upon implied volatility parameters at specified terms. Premiums received from writing options which expire are treated as realized gains. Premiums received from writing options which are exercised or closed are added to the proceeds or offset against amounts paid on the underlying future, swap, security or currency transaction to determine the realized gain or loss. The Portfolio as a writer of an option has no control over whether the underlying future, swap, security or currency may be sold (call) or purchased (put) and as a result bears the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the future, swap, security or currency underlying the written option. There is the risk the Portfolio may not be able to enter into a closing transaction because of an illiquid market.
The Portfolio may also purchase put and call options. Purchasing call options tends to increase the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. Purchasing put options tends to decrease the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. The Portfolio pays a premium which is included in the Portfolio’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an investment and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the option. Premiums paid for purchasing options which expire are treated as realized losses. The risk associated with purchasing put and call options is limited to the premium paid. Certain options may be purchased with premiums to be determined on a future date. The premiums for these options are based upon implied volatility parameters at specified terms. Premiums paid for purchasing options which are exercised or closed are added to the amounts paid or offset against the proceeds on the underlying future, swap, security or currency transaction to determine the realized gain or loss.
Repurchase Agreements. The Portfolio may engage in repurchase transactions. Under the terms of a typical repurchase agreement, the Portfolio takes possession of an underlying debt obligation subject to an obligation of the seller to repurchase, and the Portfolio to resell, the obligation at an agreed-upon price and time. The market value of the collateral must be equal to or exceed at all times the total amount of the repurchase obligations, including interest. Securities purchased under repurchase agreements are reflected as an asset in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Generally, in the event of counterparty default, the Portfolio has the right to use the collateral to offset losses incurred. If the counterparty should default, the Portfolio will seek to sell the securities which it holds as collateral. This could involve procedural costs or delays in addition to a loss on the securities if their value should fall below their repurchase price.
Restricted Securities. The Portfolio is permitted to invest in securities that are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale. These securities generally may be resold in transactions exempt from registration or to the public if the securities are registered. Disposal of these securities may involve time-consuming negotiations and expenses, and prompt sale at an acceptable price may be difficult.
Swap Agreements. The Portfolio may engage in swap transactions, including, but not limited to, swap agreements on credit default to manage its exposure to interest rates and credit risk. In connection with these agreements, securities may be identified as collateral in accordance with the terms of the respective swap agreements.
Credit default swap agreements involve one party making a stream of payments to another party in exchange for the right to receive a specified return in the event of a default by a third party, typically corporate issues or sovereign issues of an emerging country, on its obligation. The Portfolio may use credit default swaps to provide a measure of protection against defaults of the issuers (i.e., to reduce risk where the Portfolio owns or has exposure to the sovereign issuer) or to take an active long or short position with respect to the likelihood of a particular issuer’s default. As a seller of protection, the Portfolio generally receives an upfront payment or a fixed rate of income throughout the term of the swap provided that there is no credit event. If the Portfolio is a seller of protection and a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement, the Portfolio will pay to the buyer of the protection an amount up to the notional value of the swap and in certain instances take delivery of the security. As the seller, the Portfolio would effectively add leverage to its portfolio because, in addition to its total net assets, the Portfolio would be subject to investment exposure on the notional amount of the swap. As a buyer of protection, the Portfolio generally receives an amount up to the notional value of the swap if a credit event occurs. The treatment of a credit default swaps and other swap agreements that provide for contingent, non-periodic, bullet-type payments as “notional principal contracts” for federal income tax purposes is uncertain. Were the Internal Revenue Service in take the position that a credit default swap or other bullet-type swap is not a “notional principal contract” for federal income tax purposes, payments received by the Portfolio from such investments might be subject to income taxes.
Swaps are marked to market daily based upon quotations from market makers and the change in value, if any, is recorded as unrealized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Payments received or made at the beginning of the measurement period are reflected as such in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. These upfront payments are recorded as realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations upon termination or maturity of the swap. A liquidation payment received or made at the termination of the swap is recorded as realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Net periodic payments received or paid by the Portfolio are included as part of realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Entering into these agreements involves, to varying degrees, elements of credit, market and documentation risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Such risks involve the possibility that there will be no liquid market for these agreements, that the counterparty to the agreements may default on its obligation to perform or disagree as to the meaning of contractual terms in the agreements and that there may be unfavorable changes in interest rates.
Guarantees and Indemnifications. Under the Trust’s organizational documents, each Trustee, officer, employee or other agent of the Trust (including the Trust’s investment manager) is indemnified against certain liabilities that may arise out of performance of their duties to the Portfolio. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Portfolio enters into contracts that contain a variety of indemnification clauses. The Portfolio’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Portfolio that have not yet occurred. However, the Portfolio has not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts, and believes the risk of loss to be remote.
New Accounting Policies. In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes—an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (the “Interpretation”). The Interpretation is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. Management is currently evaluating the application of the Interpretation to the Portfolio and will provide additional information in relation to the Interpretation in the Portfolio’s annual financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2006.
3. FEES, EXPENSES, AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Investment Advisory Fee. PIMCO is a majority-owned subsidiary of Allianz Global Investors of America L.P. (“AGI”), and serves as investment adviser (the
| | | | |
16 | | PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust | | |
| | |
| |
| | June 30, 2006 (Unaudited) |
“Adviser”) to the Trust, pursuant to an investment advisory contract. The Adviser receives a monthly fee at an annual rate based on average daily net assets of the Portfolio. The Advisory Fee is charged at an annual rate of 0.25%.
Administration Fee. PIMCO serves as administrator (the “Administrator”), and provides administrative services to the Trust for which it receives a monthly administrative fee based on average daily net assets of the Portfolio. As the Administrator, PIMCO bears the costs of various third-party services, including audit, custodial, portfolio accounting, legal, transfer agency and printing costs. The Administration Fee is charged at the annual rate of 0.35%.
Distribution and Servicing Fees. Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC (“AGID”) is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of AGI and serves as the distributor of the Trust’s shares. The Trust is permitted to reimburse AGID on a quarterly basis, out of the Administrative Class assets of the Portfolio in the amount of 0.15% on an annual basis of the average daily net assets of that class, for payments made to financial intermediaries that provide services in connection with the distribution of shares or administration of plans or programs that use Portfolio shares as their funding medium. The effective rate paid to AGID was 0.15% during the current fiscal year.
Expenses. The Trust is responsible for the following expenses: (i) salaries and other compensation of any of the Trust’s executive officers and employees who are not officers, directors, stockholders or employees of PIMCO or its subsidiaries or affiliates; (ii) taxes and governmental fees; (iii) brokerage fees and commissions and other portfolio transaction expenses; (iv) the costs of borrowing money, including interest expenses and bank overdraft charges; (v) fees and expenses of the Trustees who are not “interested persons” of PIMCO or the Trust, and any counsel retained exclusively for their benefit; (vi) extraordinary expenses, including costs of litigation and indemnification expenses; (vii) organization expenses and (viii) any expenses allocated or allocable to a specific class of shares, which include service fees payable with respect to the Administrative Class shares and may include certain other expenses as permitted by the Trust’s Multiple Class Plan adopted pursuant to Rule 18f-3 under the Act and subject to review and approval by the Trustees. The ratio of expenses to average net assets per share class, as disclosed in the Financial Highlights, may differ from the annual portfolio operating expenses per share class as disclosed in the Prospectus for the reasons set forth above.
For the current period ended June 30, 2006, each unaffiliated Trustee received an annual retainer of $15,000, plus $2,000 for each Board of Trustees quarterly meeting attended, $500 for each Board of Trustees committee meeting attended and $500 for each special board meeting attended, plus reimbursement of related expenses. In addition, each Committee Chair received an additional annual retainer of $500 and each Audit Committee Chair received an additional annual retainer of $1,500. These expenses are allocated on a pro-rata basis to each Portfolio of the Trust according to its respective net assets. The Trust pays no compensation directly to any Trustee or any other officer who is affiliated with the Administrator, all of whom receive remuneration for their services to the Trust from the Administrator or its affiliates.
4. PURCHASES AND SALES OF SECURITIES
The length of time the Portfolio has held a particular security is not generally a consideration in investment decisions. A change in the securities held by the Portfolio is known as “portfolio turnover”. The Portfolio may engage in frequent and active trading of portfolio securities to achieve its investment objective, particularly during periods of volatile market movements. High portfolio turnover (e.g., over 100%) involves correspondingly greater expenses to the Portfolio, including brokerage commissions or dealer mark-ups and other transaction costs on the sale of securities and reinvestments in other securities. Such sales may also result in realization of taxable capital gains, including short-term capital gains (which are generally taxed at ordinary income tax rates). The trading costs and tax effects associated with portfolio turnover may adversely affect the Portfolio’s performance.
Purchases and sales of securities (excluding short-term investments) for the period ended June 30, 2006 were as follows (amounts in thousands):

$ 5,358 | | $ (11,001) | | $ (5,643) |
8. REGULATORY AND LITIGATION MATTERS
On June 1, 2004, the Attorney General of the State of New Jersey announced that it had dismissed PIMCO from a complaint filed by the New Jersey Attorney General on February 17, 2004, and that it had entered into a settlement agreement (the “New Jersey Settlement”) with Allianz Global Investors of America L.P. (“AGI”) (formerly known as Allianz Dresdner Asset Management of America L.P.), PEA Capital LLC (an entity affiliated with PIMCO through common ownership) (“PEA”) and Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC (“AGID”), in connection with the same matter. In the New Jersey Settlement, AGI, PEA and AGID neither admitted nor denied the allegations or conclusions of law, but did agree to pay New Jersey a civil fine of $15 million and $3 million for investigative costs and further potential enforcement initiatives against unrelated parties. They also undertook to implement certain governance changes. The complaint relating to the New Jersey Settlement alleged, among other things, that AGI, PEA and AGID had failed to disclose that they improperly allowed certain hedge funds to engage in “market timing” in certain funds. The complaint sought injunctive relief, civil monetary penalties, restitution and disgorgement of profits.
Since February 2004, PIMCO, AGI, PEA, AGID, and certain of their affiliates, including the PIMCO Funds, the Allianz Funds (formerly known as PIMCO Funds: Multi-Manager Series), and the Trustees and employees of the PIMCO Funds, have been named as defendants in fifteen lawsuits filed in various jurisdictions. Eleven of those lawsuits concern “market timing,” and they have been transferred to and consolidated for pre-trial proceedings in a multi-district litigation proceeding in the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland; the other four lawsuits concern “revenue sharing” and have been consolidated into a single action in the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut. The lawsuits have been commenced as putative class actions on behalf of investors who purchased, held or redeemed shares of the various series of the PIMCO Funds and the Allianz Funds during specified periods, or as derivative actions on behalf of the PIMCO Funds and Allianz Funds.
The market timing actions in the District of Maryland generally allege that certain hedge funds were allowed to engage in “market timing” in certain of the PIMCO Funds and the Allianz Funds and this alleged activity was not disclosed. Pursuant to tolling agreements entered into with the derivative and class action plaintiffs, PIMCO, the Trustees, and certain employees of PIMCO who were previously named as defendants have all been dropped as defendants in the market timing actions; the plaintiffs continue to assert claims on behalf of the shareholders of the PIMCO Funds or on behalf of the PIMCO Funds themselves against other defendants. By order dated November 3, 2005, the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland granted the PIMCO Funds’ motion to dismiss claims asserted against it in a consolidated amended complaint where the PIMCO Funds were named, in the complaint, as a nominal defendant. The revenue sharing action in the District of Connecticut generally alleges that fund assets were inappropriately used to pay brokers to promote PIMCO Funds and the Allianz Funds, including directing fund brokerage transactions to such brokers, and that such alleged arrangements were not fully disclosed to shareholders. On August 11, 2005 the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut conducted a hearing on defendants’ motion to dismiss the consolidated amended complaint in the revenue sharing action but has not yet ruled on the motion to dismiss. The market timing and revenue sharing lawsuits seek, among other things, unspecified compensatory damages plus interest and, in some cases, punitive damages, the rescission of investment advisory contracts, the return of fees paid under those contracts and restitution.
Under Section 9(a) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“1940 Act”), if the New Jersey Settlement or any of the lawsuits described above were to result in a court injunction against AGI, PEA, AGID and/or their affiliates, PIMCO could, in the absence of exemptive relief granted by the SEC, be barred from serving as an investment adviser, and AGID could be barred from serving as principal underwriter, to any registered investment company, including the Portfolios of the Trust. In connection with an inquiry from the SEC concerning the status of the New Jersey Settlement under Section 9(a), PEA, AGID, AGI and certain of their affiliates (including PIMCO) (together, the “Applicants”) have sought exemptive relief from the SEC under Section 9(c) of the 1940 Act. The SEC has granted the Applicants a temporary exemption from the provisions of Section 9(a) with respect to the New Jersey Settlement until the earlier of (i) September 13, 2006 and (ii) the date on which the SEC takes final action on their application for a permanent order. There is no assurance that the SEC will issue a permanent order.
Two nearly identical class action civil complaints have been filed in August 2005, in the Northern District of Illinois Eastern Division alleging that the plaintiffs each purchased and sold a 10-year Treasury note futures contract and suffered damages from an alleged shortage when PIMCO held both physical and futures positions in 10-year Treasury notes for its client accounts. The two actions have been consolidated into one action, and the two separate complaints have been replaced by a consolidated complaint. PIMCO is a named defendant, and the PIMCO Funds have been added as a defendant, to the consolidated action. PIMCO strongly believes the complaint (and any consolidated complaint filed hereafter) is without merit and intends to vigorously defend itself.
Certain Portfolios of the Trust were recently served in an adversary proceeding brought by the Official Committee of Asbestos Claimants of G-I Holdings, Inc. in G-I Holdings, Inc.’s bankruptcy in the District of New Jersey. PIMCO was previously named in this lawsuit and remains a defendant. The plaintiff seeks to recover for the bankruptcy estate assets that were transferred by the predecessor entity of G-I Holdings, Inc. to a wholly-owned subsidiary in 1994. The subsidiary has since issued notes, of which certain Portfolios of the Trust are alleged to be holders. The complaint alleges that in 2000, more than two hundred noteholders—including certain Portfolios of the Trust—were granted a second priority lien on the assets of the subsidiary in exchange for their consent to a refinancing transaction and the granting of a first priority lien to the lending banks. The plaintiff is seeking invalidation of the lien in favor of the noteholders and/or the value of the lien.
It is possible that these matters and/or other developments resulting from these matters could result in increased fund redemptions or other adverse consequences to the Portfolios. However, PIMCO and AGID believe that these matters are not likely to have a material adverse effect on the Portfolios or on PIMCO’s or AGID’s ability to perform their respective investment advisory or distribution services relating to the Portfolios.

Chairman’s Letter
Dear PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust Shareholder:
It is our pleasure to present to you the semiannual report for the PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust covering the six-month period ended June 30, 2006.
Highlights of the global bond markets during the six-month period included:
| n | | Most fixed-income sectors lost ground during the first half of 2006, as concern about accelerating inflation and central bank tightening pushed interest rates higher worldwide. The benchmark Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index (which includes Treasury, Investment-Grade Corporate, and Residential Mortgage-Backed Securities) returned -0.72% for the first six months of the year. On June 30, the benchmark ten-year Treasury yielded 5.14%, 0.75% higher than at the start of the year. The U.S. yield curve remained flat as shorter-maturity yields rose by a comparable amount. |
| n | | The Federal Reserve tightened four times during the reporting period, bringing the Federal Funds Rate to 5.25%. The increase near the end of the period was the Federal Reserve’s 17th consecutive rate hike since the start of its tightening cycle in 2004. The Federal Reserve was not alone, as central banks in Europe, India, and China tightened credit in unison for the first time since 2000. The Bank of Japan, whose zero-interest-rate policy has flooded global markets with liquidity, looked set to reverse this policy in the coming months. |
In these pages please find a more complete Portfolio review as it relates to financial-market activities, as well as details about total-return investment performance for the six-month reporting period. Thank you for the trust you have placed in us. We will continue to work diligently to meet your investment needs.
Sincerely,

Brent R. Harris
Chairman, PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust

Important Information About the Portfolio
PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust (the “Trust”) is an open-end management investment company currently consisting of nineteen separate investment portfolios, including the Long-Term U.S. Government Portfolio (the “Portfolio”). The Portfolio is only available as a funding vehicle under variable life insurance policies or variable annuity contracts issued by insurance companies (“Variable Contracts”). Individuals may not purchase shares of the Portfolio directly. Shares of the Portfolio also may be sold to qualified pension and retirement plans outside of the separate account context.
We believe that bond funds have an important role to play in a well diversified investment portfolio. It is important to note, however, that in an environment where interest rates may trend upward, rising rates would negatively impact the performance of most bond funds, and fixed-income securities held by a fund are likely to decrease in value. The price volatility of fixed-income securities can also increase during periods of rising interest rates resulting in increased losses to a fund. Bond funds and individual bonds with a longer duration (a measure of the expected life of a security) tend to be more sensitive to changes in interest rates, usually making them more volatile than securities or funds with shorter durations. The longer-term performance of most bond funds has benefited from capital gains in part resulting from an extended period of declining interest rates. In the event interest rates increase, these capital gains should not be expected to recur.
The Portfolio may be subject to various risks in addition to those described above. Some of these risks may include, but are not limited to, the following: credit risk, market risk, issuer risk, derivatives risk, mortgage risk, leveraging risk and management risk. A complete description of these risks is contained in the Portfolio’s prospectus. The Portfolio may use derivative instruments for hedging purposes or as part of an investment strategy. Use of these instruments may involve certain costs and risks such as liquidity risk, interest rate risk, market risk, credit risk, management risk and the risk that the Portfolio could not close out a position when it would be most advantageous to do so. A Portfolio investing in derivatives could lose more than the principal amount invested in these instruments.
On the performance summary page in this Semiannual Report, the Total Return Investment Performance table measures performance assuming that all dividend and capital gain distributions were reinvested.
An investment in the Portfolio is not a deposit of a bank and is not guaranteed or insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. It is possible to lose money on investments in the Portfolio.
PIMCO has adopted written proxy voting policies and procedures (“Proxy Policy”) as required by Rule 206(4)-6 under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940. The Proxy Policy has been adopted by the Trust as the policies and procedures that PIMCO will use when voting proxies on behalf of the Portfolio. Copies of the written Proxy Policy and the factors that PIMCO may consider in determining how to vote proxies for the Portfolio, and information about how the Portfolio voted proxies relating to portfolio securities held during the most recent twelve-month period ended June 30, are available without charge, upon request, by calling the Trust at 1-866-746-2606 and on the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) website at http://www.sec.gov.
The Portfolio files its complete schedule of portfolio holdings with the SEC for the first and third quarters of each fiscal year on Form N-Q. A copy of the Trust’s Form N-Q is available on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov and may be reviewed and copied at the SEC’s Public Reference Room in Washington D.C. Information on the operation of the Public Reference Room may be obtained by calling 1-800-SEC-0330.

As a shareholder of the Portfolio, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs and (2) ongoing costs, including advisory and administrative fees; distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees (Administrative Class only); and other Portfolio expenses. The Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Portfolio and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Expense Example does not reflect any fees or other expenses imposed by the Variable Contracts. If it did, the expenses reflected in the Expense Examples would be higher. The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period indicated, which is from January 1, 2006 to Semiannual.
Actual Expenses
The information in the table under the heading “Actual Performance” provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in these columns, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.60), then multiply the result by the number in the appropriate column for your share class, in the row titled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The information in the table under the heading “Hypothetical Performance (5% return before expenses)” provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Portfolio’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Portfolio’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Portfolio and other portfolios. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other portfolios.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs. Therefore, the information under the heading “Hypothetical Performance (5% return before expenses)” is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different portfolios. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.
The expense ratio may vary period to period because of various factors, such as an increase in expenses not covered by the advisory and administrative fees (such as expenses of the trustees and their counsel or litigation expense).

* Cumulative return.
Past performance is no guarantee of future results. The performance quoted represents past performance. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so the Portfolio shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. The Portfolio’s performance does not reflect the deduction of additional charges and expenses imposed in connection with investing in Variable Contracts, which will reduce returns. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. Performance data current to the most recent month-end is available by calling (800) 927-4648.

Expenses Paid During Period† | | | | $ | 3.00 | | | | $ | 3.11 |
† Expenses are equal to the Portfolio’s Administrative Class annualized expense ratio of 0.62%, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 181/365 (to reflect the one-half year period). Overall fees and expenses of investing in the Portfolio will be higher because the example does not reflect Variable Contract fees and expenses.

Portfolio Insights
» | | The PIMCO Long-Term U.S. Government Portfolio seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing under normal circumstances at least 80% of its assets in a diversified portfolio of Fixed-Income Securities that are issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government, its agencies or government-sponsored enterprises (“U.S. Government Securities”). |
» | | The Portfolio’s emphasis on the short-term portion of the curve, especially the 0-1 year maturity bucket, throughout the six-month reporting period ended June 30, 2006 was a negative for relative performance because these rates rose the most as the yield curve flattened. |
» | | Because swap spreads widened over the first six months of 2006, the modest allocation to interest rate swaps negatively impacted returns relative to the benchmark. |
» | | An out-of-benchmark allocation to structured mortgages had a positive effect on relative performance as mortgages outperformed long-term Treasuries over the six-month reporting period ended June 30, 2006. |
» | | Long municipal bonds outperformance versus Treasuries with a similar duration was positive for the Portfolio’s relative performance during the six-month period due to a modest out-of-benchmark allocation to long municipal bonds. |
» | | A modest out-of-benchmark allocation to short Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities (“TIPS”) was positive for the six-month period ended June 30, 2006 while the modest out-of-benchmark allocation to long TIPS was negative as they respectively outperformed and underperformed long-term Treasuries. Overall, TIPS were positive over the six-month reporting period. |

Notes to Financial Statements
1. ORGANIZATION
The Long-Term U.S. Government Portfolio (the “Portfolio”) is a series of the PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust (the “Trust”). The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “Act”), as amended, as an open-end investment management company organized as a Delaware business trust on October 3, 1997. The Portfolio offers two classes of shares: Institutional and Administrative. Information presented in these financial statements pertains to the Administrative Class of the Portfolio. Certain detailed financial information for the Institutional Class is available upon request. The Trust is designed to be used as an investment vehicle by Separate Accounts of insurance companies that fund variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies and by qualified pension and retirement plans.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Portfolio in the preparation of its financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Security Valuation. Portfolio securities are valued as of the close of regular trading (normally 4:00 p.m., Eastern Time) on each day that the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) is open. Portfolio securities and other assets for which market quotes are readily available are stated at market value. Market value is generally determined on the basis of last reported sales prices, or if no sales are reported, based on quotes obtained from a quotation reporting system, established market makers, or pricing services. Fixed-income securities and non-exchange traded derivatives are normally valued on the basis of quotes obtained from brokers and dealers or pricing services. Prices obtained from independent pricing services use information provided by market makers or estimates of market values obtained from yield data relating to investments or securities with similar characteristics. Certain fixed-income securities purchased on a delayed-delivery basis are marked to market daily until settlement at the forward settlement date. Short-term investments having a maturity of 60 days or less are generally valued at amortized cost. Exchange traded options, futures and options on futures are valued at the settlement price determined by the relevant exchange.
Investments initially valued in currencies other than the U.S. dollar are converted to the U.S. dollar using exchange rates obtained from pricing services. As a result, the NAV of the Portfolio’s shares may be affected by changes in the value of currencies in relation to the U.S. dollar. The value of securities traded in markets outside the United States or denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar may be affected significantly on a day that the NYSE is closed and an investor is not able to purchase, redeem or exchange shares.
Securities and other assets for which market quotes are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction. The Board of Trustees has adopted methods for valuing securities and other assets in circumstances where market quotes are not readily available, and has delegated to Pacific Investment Management Company LLC (“PIMCO”) the responsibility for applying the valuation methods. In the event that market quotes are not readily available, and the security or asset cannot be valued pursuant to one of the valuation methods, the value of the security or asset will be determined in good faith by the Valuation Committee of the Board of Trustees, generally based upon recommendations provided by PIMCO.
Market quotes are considered not readily available in circumstances where there is an absence of current or reliable market-based data (e.g., trade information, bid/asked information, broker quotes), including where events occur after the close of the relevant market, but prior to the close of regular trading, that materially affect the values of the Portfolio’s securities or assets. In addition, market quotes are considered not readily available when, due to extraordinary circumstances, the exchanges or markets on which the securities trade do not open for trading for the entire day and no other market prices are available. The Board has delegated to PIMCO the responsibility for monitoring significant events that may materially affect the values of the Portfolio’s securities or assets and for determining whether the value of the applicable securities or assets should be re-evaluated in light of such significant events. When the Portfolio uses fair value pricing to determine its NAV, securities will not be priced on the basis of quotations from the primary market in which they are traded, but rather may be priced by another method that the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction believe accurately reflects fair value. The Trust’s policy is intended to result in a calculation of the Portfolio’s NAV that fairly reflects security values as of the time of pricing. However, fair values determined by the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction may not accurately reflect the price that the Portfolio could obtain for a security if it were to dispose of that security as of the time of pricing. Because foreign securities can trade on non-business days, the NAV of the Portfolio may change on days when shareholders will not be able to purchase or redeem shares. The prices used by the Portfolio may differ from the value that would be realized if the securities were sold and the differences could be material to the financial statements.
Securities Transactions and Investment Income. Securities transactions are recorded as of the trade date. Securities purchased or sold on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis may be settled a month or more after the trade date. Realized gains and losses from securities sold are recorded on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Portfolio is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, adjusted for the accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis. Paydown gains and losses on mortgage-related or asset-backed securities are recorded as components of interest income in the Statement of Operations.
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends from net investment income, if any, are declared on each day the Portfolio is open for business and are distributed to shareholders monthly. Net realized capital gains earned by the Portfolio, if any, will be distributed no less frequently than once each year. Most shareholders choose to reinvest their dividends and capital gain distribution in additional shares of the Portfolio.
Income dividends and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP. Differences between tax regulations and GAAP may change the fiscal year when income and capital items are recognized for tax and GAAP purposes. Examples of events that give rise to timing differences include wash sales, straddles, net operating losses and capital loss carryforwards. Further, the character of investment income and capital gains may be different for certain transactions under the two methods of accounting. Examples of characterization differences include the treatment of mortgage paydowns, swaps, foreign currency transactions and contingent debt instruments. As a result, income dividends and capital gain distributions declared during a fiscal period may differ significantly from the net investment income and realized capital gain reported in the Portfolio’s annual financial statements presented under GAAP.

Distributions classified as a tax basis return of capital, if any, are reflected in the accompanying Statements of Changes in Net Assets and have been reclassified to paid in capital. In addition, other amounts have been reclassified between undistributed net investment income, accumulated undistributed net realized gains or losses and/or paid in capital to more appropriately conform financial accounting to tax characterizations of dividend distributions.
Multiclass Operations. Each class offered by the Portfolio has equal rights as to assets and voting privileges (except that shareholders of a class have exclusive voting rights regarding any matter relating solely to that class of shares). Income and non-class specific expenses of the Portfolio are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative value of settled shares. Realized and unrealized capital gains and losses of the Portfolio are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative net assets of each class. Class specific expenses, where applicable, currently include administrative, distribution and servicing fees.
Delayed-Delivery Transactions. The Portfolio may purchase or sell securities on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis. These transactions involve a commitment by the Portfolio to purchase or sell securities for a predetermined price or yield, with payment and delivery taking place beyond the customary settlement period. When delayed-delivery purchases are outstanding, the Portfolio will designate liquid assets in an amount sufficient to meet the purchase price. When purchasing a security on a delayed-delivery basis, the Portfolio assumes the rights and risks of ownership of the security, including the risk of price and yield fluctuations, and takes such fluctuations into account when determining its net asset value. The Portfolio may dispose of or renegotiate a delayed-delivery transaction after it is entered into, and may sell when-issued securities before they are delivered, which may result in a capital gain or loss. When the Portfolio has sold a security on a delayed-delivery basis, the Portfolio does not participate in future gains and losses with respect to the security.
Federal Income Taxes. The Portfolio intends to qualify as a regulated investment company under sub-chapter M of the Internal Revenue Code and distribute all of its taxable income and net realized gains, if applicable, to shareholders. Accordingly, no provision for Federal income taxes has been made.
Futures Contracts. The Portfolio is authorized to enter into futures contracts. The Portfolio may use futures contracts to manage its exposure to the securities markets or to movements in interest rates and currency values. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are the imperfect correlation between the change in market value of the securities held by the Portfolio and the prices of futures contracts, the possibility of an illiquid market, and the inability of the counterparty to meet the terms of the contract. Futures contracts are valued based upon their quoted daily settlement prices. Upon entering into a futures contract, the Portfolio is required to deposit with its custodian, in a segregated account in the name of the futures broker, an amount of cash or U.S. Government and Agency Obligations in accordance with the initial margin requirements of the broker or exchange. Futures contracts are marked to market daily and an appropriate payable or receivable for the change in value (“variation margin”) is recorded by the Portfolio. Gains or losses are recognized but not considered realized until the contracts expire or are closed. Futures contracts involve, to varying degrees, risk of loss in excess of the variation margin disclosed in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
Inflation-Indexed Bonds. The Portfolio may invest in inflation-indexed bonds. Inflation-indexed bonds are fixed-income securities whose principal value is periodically adjusted to the rate of inflation. The interest rate on these bonds is generally fixed at issuance at a rate lower than typical bonds. Over the life of an inflation-indexed bond, however, interest will be paid based on a principal value, which is adjusted for inflation. Any increase in the principal amount of an inflation-indexed bond will be included as interest income in the Statement of Operations, even though investors do not receive their principal until maturity.
Options Contracts. The Portfolio may write call and put options on futures, swaps, securities or currencies it owns or in which it may invest. Writing put options tends to increase the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. Writing call options tends to decrease the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. When the Portfolio writes a call or put option, an amount equal to the premium received is recorded as a liability and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the option written. These liabilities are reflected as written options outstanding in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Certain options may be written with premiums to determined on a future date. The premiums for these options are based upon implied volatility parameters at specified terms. Premiums received from writing options which expire are treated as realized gains. Premiums received from writing options which are exercised or closed are added to the proceeds or offset against amounts paid on the underlying future, swap, security or currency transaction to determine the realized gain or loss. The Portfolio as a writer of an option has no control over whether the underlying future, swap, security or currency may be sold (call) or purchased (put) and as a result bears the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the future, swap, security or currency underlying the written option. There is the risk the Portfolio may not be able to enter into a closing transaction because of an illiquid market.
The Portfolio may also purchase put and call options. Purchasing call options tends to increase the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. Purchasing put options tends to decrease the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. The Portfolio pays a premium which is included in the Portfolio’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an investment and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the option. Premiums paid for purchasing options which expire are treated as realized losses. Certain options may be purchased with premiums to be determined on a future date. The premiums for these options are based upon implied volatility parameters at specified terms. The risk associated with purchasing put and call options is limited to the premium paid. Premiums paid for purchasing options which are exercised or closed are added to the amounts paid or offset against the proceeds on the underlying future, swap, security or currency transaction to determine the realized gain or loss.
Repurchase Agreements. The Portfolio may engage in repurchase transactions. Under the terms of a typical repurchase agreement, the Portfolio takes possession of an underlying debt obligation subject to an obligation of the seller to repurchase, and the Portfolio to resell, the obligation at an agreed-upon price and time. The market value of the collateral must be equal to or exceed at all times the total amount of the repurchase obligations, including interest. Securities purchased under repurchase agreements are reflected as an asset in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Generally, in the event of counterparty default, the Portfolio has the right to use the collateral to offset losses incurred. If the counterparty should default, the Portfolio will seek to sell the securities which it holds as collateral. This could involve procedural costs or delays in addition to a loss on the securities if their value should fall below their repurchase price.
Short Sales. The Portfolio may enter into short sales transactions. A short sale is a transaction in which the Portfolio sells securities it does not own in anticipation of a decline in the market price of the securities. Securities sold in short sale transactions and interest payable on such securities, if any, are reflected as a liability in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The Portfolio is obligated to deliver securities at the market price at the time the short position is closed. Possible losses from short sales may be unlimited, whereas losses from purchases cannot exceed the total amount invested.
Mortgage-Related and Other Asset-Backed Securities. The Portfolio may invest in mortgage-related or other asset-backed securities. These securities include mortgage pass-through securities, collateralized mortgage obligations (“CMOs”), commercial mortgage-backed securities, mortgage dollar rolls, CMO

| | Semiannual Report | | June 30, 2006 | | 13 |
Notes to Financial Statements (Cont.)
residuals, stripped mortgage-backed securities (“SMBSs”) and other securities that directly or indirectly represent a participation in, or are secured by and payable from, mortgage loans on real property. The value of some mortgage- or asset-backed securities may be particularly sensitive to changes in prevailing interest rates. Early repayment of principal on some mortgage-related securities may expose a Fund to a lower rate of return upon reinvestment of principal. The value of these securities may fluctuate in response to the market’s perception of the creditworthiness of the issuers. Additionally, although mortgages and mortgage-related securities are generally supported by some form of government or private guarantee and/or insurance, there is no assurance that private guarantors or insurers will meet their obligations.
One type of SMBS has one class receiving all of the interest from the mortgage assets (the interest-only, or “IO” class), while the other class will receive all of the principal (the principal-only, or “PO” class). Payments received for IOs are included in interest income in the Statement of Operations. Because principal will not be received at the maturity of an IO, adjustments are made to the book value of the security on a daily basis until maturity. These adjustments are included in interest income in the Statement of Operations. Payments received for POs are treated as reductions to the cost and par value of the securities.
Swap Agreements. The Portfolio may engage in swap transactions, including, but not limited to, swap agreements on interest rate to manage its exposure to interest rates and credit risk. In connection with these agreements, securities may be identified as collateral in accordance with the terms of the respective swap agreements.
Interest rate swap agreements involve the exchange by the Portfolio with another party of their respective commitments to pay or receive interest, e.g., an exchange of floating rate payments for fixed rate payments with respect to the notional amount of principal.
Swaps are marked to market daily based upon quotations from market makers and the change in value, if any, is recorded as unrealized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Payments received or made at the beginning of the measurement period are reflected as such in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. These upfront payments are recorded as realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations upon termination or maturity of the swap. A liquidation payment received or made at the termination of the swap is recorded as realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Net periodic payments received or paid by the Portfolio are included as part of realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Entering into these agreements involves, to varying degrees, elements of credit, market and documentation risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Such risks involve the possibility that there will be no liquid market for these agreements, that the counterparty to the agreements may default on its obligation to perform or disagree as to the meaning of contractual terms in the agreements and that there may be unfavorable changes in interest rates.
U.S. Government Agencies or Government-Sponsored Enterprises. Securities issued by U.S. Government agencies or government-sponsored enterprises may not be guaranteed by the U.S. Treasury. The Government National Mortgage Association (“GNMA”), a wholly owned U.S. Government corporation, is authorized to guarantee, with the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government, the timely payment of principal and interest on securities issued by institutions approved by GNMA and backed by pools of mortgages insured by the Federal Housing Administration or guaranteed by the Department of Veterans Affairs. Government-related guarantors (i.e., not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government) include the Federal National Mortgage Association (“FNMA” or “Fannie Mae”) and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“FHLMC” or “Freddie Mac”). Pass-through securities issued by FNMA are guaranteed as to timely payment of principal and interest by FNMA but are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government. FHLMC guarantees the timely payment of interest and ultimate collection of principal, but its participation certificates are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government.
Guarantees and Indemnifications. Under the Trust’s organizational documents, each Trustee, officer, employee or other agent of the Trust (including the Trust’s investment manager) is indemnified against certain liabilities that may arise out of performance of their duties to the Portfolio. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Portfolio enters into contracts that contain a variety of indemnification clauses. The Portfolio’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Portfolio that have not yet occurred. However, the Portfolio has not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts, and believes the risk of loss to be remote.
New Accounting Policies. In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes—an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (the “Interpretation”). The Interpretation is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. Management is currently evaluating the application of the Interpretation to the Portfolio and will provide additional information in relation to the Interpretation in the Portfolio’s annual financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2006.
3. FEES, EXPENSES, AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Investment Advisory Fee. PIMCO is a majority-owned subsidiary of Allianz Global Investors of America L.P. (“AGI”), and serves as investment adviser (the “Adviser”) to the Trust, pursuant to an investment advisory contract. The Adviser receives a monthly fee at an annual rate based on average daily net assets of the Portfolio. The Advisory Fee is charged at an annual rate of 0.225%.
Administration Fee. PIMCO serves as administrator (the “Administrator”), and provides administrative services to the Trust for which it receives a monthly administrative fee based on average daily net assets of the Portfolio. As the Administrator, PIMCO bears the costs of various third-party services, including audit, custodial, portfolio accounting, legal, transfer agency and printing costs. The Administration Fee is charged at the annual rate of 0.25%.
Distribution and Servicing Fees. Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC (“AGID”) is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of AGI and serves as the distributor of the Trust’s shares. The Trust is permitted to reimburse AGID on a quarterly basis, out of the Administrative Class assets of the Portfolio in the amount of 0.15% on an annual basis of the average daily net assets of that class, for payments made to financial intermediaries that provide services in connection with the distribution of shares or administration of plans or programs that use Portfolio shares as their funding medium. The effective rate paid to AGID was 0.15% during the current fiscal year.
Expenses. The Trust is responsible for the following expenses: (i) salaries and other compensation of any of the Trust’s executive officers and employees who are not officers, directors, stockholders or employees of PIMCO or its subsidiaries or affiliates; (ii) taxes and governmental fees; (iii) brokerage fees and commissions and other portfolio transaction expenses; (iv) the costs of borrowing money, including interest expenses and bank overdraft charges; (v) fees and expenses of the Trustees who are not “interested persons” of PIMCO or the Trust, and any counsel retained exclusively for their benefit; (vi) extraordinary expenses, including costs of litigation and indemnification expenses; (vii) organization expenses and (viii) any expenses allocated or allocable to a specific class of shares, which include service fees payable with respect to the Administrative Class shares and may include certain other expenses as permitted by the Trust’s Multiple Class Plan adopted pursuant to Rule 18f-3 under the Act and subject to review and approval

by the Trustees. The ratio of expenses to average net assets per share class, as disclosed in the Financial Highlights, may differ from the annual portfolio operating expenses per share class as disclosed in the Prospectus for the reasons set forth above.
For the current period ended June 30, 2006, each unaffiliated Trustee received an annual retainer of $15,000, plus $2,000 for each Board of Trustees quarterly meeting attended, $500 for each Board of Trustees committee meeting attended and $500 for each special board meeting attended, plus reimbursement of related expenses. In addition, each Committee Chair received an additional annual retainer of $500 and each Audit Committee Chair received an additional annual retainer of $1,500. These expenses are allocated on a pro-rata basis to each Portfolio of the Trust according to its respective net assets. The Trust pays no compensation directly to any Trustee or any other officer who is affiliated with the Administrator, all of whom receive remuneration for their services to the Trust from the Administrator or its affiliates.
4. PURCHASES AND SALES OF SECURITIES
The length of time the Portfolio has held a particular security is not generally a consideration in investment decisions. A change in the securities held by the Portfolio is known as “portfolio turnover”. The Portfolio may engage in frequent and active trading of portfolio securities to achieve its investment objective, particularly during periods of volatile market movements. High portfolio turnover (e.g., over 100%) involves correspondingly greater expenses to the Portfolio, including brokerage commissions or dealer mark-ups and other transaction costs on the sale of securities and reinvestments in other securities. Such sales may also result in realization of taxable capital gains, including short-term capital gains (which are generally taxed at ordinary income tax rates). The trading costs and tax effects associated with portfolio turnover may adversely affect the Portfolio’s performance.
Purchases and sales of securities (excluding short-term investments) for the period ended June 30, 2006 were as follows (amounts in thousands):

8. REGULATORY AND LITIGATION MATTERS
On June 1, 2004, the Attorney General of the State of New Jersey announced that it had dismissed PIMCO from a complaint filed by the New Jersey Attorney General on February 17, 2004, and that it had entered into a settlement agreement (the “New Jersey Settlement”) with Allianz Global Investors of America L.P. (“AGI”) (formerly known as Allianz Dresdner Asset Management of America L.P.), PEA Capital LLC (an entity affiliated with PIMCO through common ownership) (“PEA”) and Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC (“AGID”), in connection with the same matter. In the New Jersey Settlement, AGI, PEA and AGID neither admitted nor denied the allegations or conclusions of law, but did agree to pay New Jersey a civil fine of $15 million and $3 million for investigative costs and further potential enforcement initiatives against unrelated parties. They also undertook to implement certain governance changes. The complaint relating to the New Jersey Settlement alleged, among other things, that AGI, PEA and AGID had failed to disclose that they improperly allowed certain hedge funds to engage in “market timing” in certain funds. The complaint sought injunctive relief, civil monetary penalties, restitution and disgorgement of profits.

Notes to Financial Statements (Cont.)
Since February 2004, PIMCO, AGI, PEA, AGID, and certain of their affiliates, including the PIMCO Funds, the Allianz Funds (formerly known as PIMCO Funds: Multi-Manager Series), and the Trustees and employees of the PIMCO Funds, have been named as defendants in fifteen lawsuits filed in various jurisdictions. Eleven of those lawsuits concern “market timing,” and they have been transferred to and consolidated for pre-trial proceedings in a multi-district litigation proceeding in the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland; the other four lawsuits concern “revenue sharing” and have been consolidated into a single action in the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut. The lawsuits have been commenced as putative class actions on behalf of investors who purchased, held or redeemed shares of the various series of the PIMCO Funds and the Allianz Funds during specified periods, or as derivative actions on behalf of the PIMCO Funds and Allianz Funds.
The market timing actions in the District of Maryland generally allege that certain hedge funds were allowed to engage in “market timing” in certain of the PIMCO Funds and the Allianz Funds and this alleged activity was not disclosed. Pursuant to tolling agreements entered into with the derivative and class action plaintiffs, PIMCO, the Trustees, and certain employees of PIMCO who were previously named as defendants have all been dropped as defendants in the market timing actions; the plaintiffs continue to assert claims on behalf of the shareholders of the PIMCO Funds or on behalf of the PIMCO Funds themselves against other defendants. By order dated November 3, 2005, the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland granted the PIMCO Funds’ motion to dismiss claims asserted against it in a consolidated amended complaint where the PIMCO Funds were named, in the complaint, as a nominal defendant. The revenue sharing action in the District of Connecticut generally alleges that fund assets were inappropriately used to pay brokers to promote the PIMCO Funds and Allianz Funds, including directing fund brokerage transactions to such brokers, and that such alleged arrangements were not fully disclosed to shareholders. On August 11, 2005 the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut conducted a hearing on defendants’ motion to dismiss the consolidated amended complaint in the revenue sharing action but has not yet ruled on the motion to dismiss. The market timing and revenue sharing lawsuits seek, among other things, unspecified compensatory damages plus interest and, in some cases, punitive damages, the rescission of investment advisory contracts, the return of fees paid under those contracts and restitution.
Under Section 9(a) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“1940 Act”), if the New Jersey Settlement or any of the lawsuits described above were to result in a court injunction against AGI, PEA, AGID and/or their affiliates, PIMCO could, in the absence of exemptive relief granted by the SEC, be barred from serving as an investment adviser, and AGID could be barred from serving as principal underwriter, to any registered investment company, including the Portfolios of the Trust. In connection with an inquiry from the SEC concerning the status of the New Jersey Settlement under Section 9(a), PEA, AGID, AGI and certain of their affiliates (including PIMCO) (together, the “Applicants”) have sought exemptive relief from the SEC under Section 9(c) of the 1940 Act. The SEC has granted the Applicants a temporary exemption from the provisions of Section 9(a) with respect to the New Jersey Settlement until the earlier of (i) September 13, 2006 and (ii) the date on which the SEC takes final action on their application for a permanent order. There is no assurance that the SEC will issue a permanent order.
Two nearly identical class action civil complaints have been filed in August 2005, in the Northern District of Illinois Eastern Division alleging that the plaintiffs each purchased and sold a 10-year Treasury note futures contract and suffered damages from an alleged shortage when PIMCO held both physical and futures positions in 10-year Treasury notes for its client accounts. The two actions have been consolidated into one action, and the two separate complaints have been replaced by a consolidated complaint. PIMCO is a named defendant, and the PIMCO Funds have been added as a defendant, to the consolidated action. PIMCO strongly believes the complaint (and any consolidated complaint filed hereafter) is without merit and intends to vigorously defend itself.
Certain Portfolios of the Trust were recently served in an adversary proceeding brought by the Official Committee of Asbestos Claimants of G-I Holdings, Inc. in G-I Holdings, Inc.’s bankruptcy in the District of New Jersey. PIMCO was previously named in this lawsuit and remains a defendant. The plaintiff seeks to recover for the bankruptcy estate assets that were transferred by the predecessor entity of G-I Holdings, Inc. to a wholly-owned subsidiary in 1994. The subsidiary has since issued notes, of which certain Portfolios of the Trust are alleged to be holders. The complaint alleges that in 2000, more than two hundred noteholders—including certain Portfolios of the Trust—were granted a second priority lien on the assets of the subsidiary in exchange for their consent to a refinancing transaction and the granting of a first priority lien to the lending banks. The plaintiff is seeking invalidation of the lien in favor of the noteholders and/or the value of the lien.
It is possible that these matters and/or other developments resulting from these matters could result in increased fund redemptions or other adverse consequences to the Portfolios. However, PIMCO and AGID believe that these matters are not likely to have a material adverse effect on the Portfolios or on PIMCO’s or AGID’s ability to perform their respective investment advisory or distribution services relating to the Portfolios.

Chairman’s Letter
Dear PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust Shareholder:
It is our pleasure to present to you the semiannual report for the PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust covering the six-month period ended June 30, 2006.
Highlights of the global bond markets during the six-month period included:
| n | | Most fixed-income sectors lost ground during the first half of 2006, as concern about accelerating inflation and central bank tightening pushed interest rates higher worldwide. The benchmark Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index (which includes Treasury, Investment-Grade Corporate, and Residential Mortgage-Backed Securities) returned -0.72% for the first six months of the year. On June 30, the benchmark ten-year Treasury yielded 5.14%, 0.75% higher than at the start of the year. The U.S. yield curve remained flat as shorter-maturity yields rose by a comparable amount. |
| n | | The Federal Reserve tightened four times during the reporting period, bringing the Federal Funds Rate to 5.25%. The increase near the end of the period was the Federal Reserve’s 17th consecutive rate hike since the start of its tightening cycle in 2004. The Federal Reserve was not alone, as central banks in Europe, India, and China tightened credit in unison for the first time since 2000. The Bank of Japan, whose zero-interest-rate policy has flooded global markets with liquidity, looked set to reverse this policy in the coming months. |
In these pages please find a more complete Portfolio review as it relates to financial-market activities, as well as details about total-return investment performance for the six-month reporting period. Thank you for the trust you have placed in us. We will continue to work diligently to meet your investment needs.
Sincerely,

Brent R. Harris
Chairman, PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust

Important Information About the Portfolio
PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust (the “Trust”) is an open-end management investment company currently consisting of nineteen separate investment portfolios, including the Long-Term U.S. Government Portfolio (the “Portfolio”). The Portfolio is only available as a funding vehicle under variable life insurance policies or variable annuity contracts issued by insurance companies (“Variable Contracts”). Individuals may not purchase shares of the Portfolio directly. Shares of the Portfolio also may be sold to qualified pension and retirement plans outside of the separate account context.
We believe that bond funds have an important role to play in a well diversified investment portfolio. It is important to note, however, that in an environment where interest rates may trend upward, rising rates would negatively impact the performance of most bond funds, and fixed-income securities held by a fund are likely to decrease in value. The price volatility of fixed-income securities can also increase during periods of rising interest rates resulting in increased losses to a fund. Bond funds and individual bonds with a longer duration (a measure of the expected life of a security) tend to be more sensitive to changes in interest rates, usually making them more volatile than securities or funds with shorter durations. The longer-term performance of most bond funds has benefited from capital gains in part resulting from an extended period of declining interest rates. In the event interest rates increase, these capital gains should not be expected to recur.
The Portfolio may be subject to various risks in addition to those described above. Some of these risks may include, but are not limited to, the following: credit risk, market risk, issuer risk, derivatives risk, mortgage risk, leveraging risk and management risk. A complete description of these risks is contained in the Portfolio’s prospectus. The Portfolio may use derivative instruments for hedging purposes or as part of an investment strategy. Use of these instruments may involve certain costs and risks such as liquidity risk, interest rate risk, market risk, credit risk, management risk and the risk that the Portfolio could not close out a position when it would be most advantageous to do so. A Portfolio investing in derivatives could lose more than the principal amount invested in these instruments.
On the performance summary page in this Semiannual Report, the Total Return Investment Performance table measures performance assuming that all dividend and capital gain distributions were reinvested.
An investment in the Portfolio is not a deposit of a bank and is not guaranteed or insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. It is possible to lose money on investments in the Portfolio.
PIMCO has adopted written proxy voting policies and procedures (“Proxy Policy”) as required by Rule 206(4)-6 under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940. The Proxy Policy has been adopted by the Trust as the policies and procedures that PIMCO will use when voting proxies on behalf of the Portfolio. Copies of the written Proxy Policy and the factors that PIMCO may consider in determining how to vote proxies for the Portfolio, and information about how the Portfolio voted proxies relating to portfolio securities held during the most recent twelve-month period ended June 30, are available without charge, upon request, by calling the Trust at 1-866-746-2606 and on the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) website at http://www.sec.gov.
The Portfolio files its complete schedule of portfolio holdings with the SEC for the first and third quarters of each fiscal year on Form N-Q. A copy of the Trust’s Form N-Q is available on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov and may be reviewed and copied at the SEC’s Public Reference Room in Washington D.C. Information on the operation of the Public Reference Room may be obtained by calling 1-800-SEC-0330.
PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust is distributed by Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC, 2187 Atlantic Street, Stamford, CT 06902.

The following disclosure provides important information regarding the Portfolio’s Expense Example (“Example” or “Expense Example”), which appears in this Semiannual Report. Please refer to this information when reviewing the Expense Example for the Portfolio.
Example
As a shareholder of the Portfolio, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs and (2) ongoing costs, including advisory and administrative fees; distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees (Administrative Class only); and other Portfolio expenses. The Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Portfolio and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Expense Example does not reflect any fees or other expenses imposed by the Variable Contracts. If it did, the expenses reflected in the Expense Examples would be higher. The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period indicated, which is from January 1, 2006 to Semiannual.
Actual Expenses
The information in the table under the heading “Actual Performance” provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in these columns, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.60), then multiply the result by the number in the appropriate column for your share class, in the row titled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The information in the table under the heading “Hypothetical Performance (5% return before expenses)” provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Portfolio’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Portfolio’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Portfolio and other portfolios. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other portfolios.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs. Therefore, the information under the heading “Hypothetical Performance (5% return before expenses)” is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different portfolios. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.
The expense ratio may vary period to period because of various factors, such as an increase in expenses not covered by the advisory and administrative fees (such as expenses of the trustees and their counsel or litigation expense).
Portfolio Benchmark
Lehman Brothers Long-Term Treasury consists of U.S. Treasury issues with maturities of 10 or more years. It is not possible to invest directly in such an unmanaged index.

Past performance is no guarantee of future results. The performance quoted represents past performance. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so the Portfolio shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. The Portfolio’s performance does not reflect the deduction of additional charges and expenses imposed in connection with investing in Variable Contracts, which will reduce returns. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. Performance data current to the most recent month-end is available by calling (800) 927-4648.

† Expenses are equal to the Portfolio’s Institutional Class annualized expense ratio of 0.47%, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 181/365 (to reflect the one-half year period). Overall fees and expenses of investing in the Portfolio will be higher because the example does not reflect Variable Contract fees and expenses.

Portfolio Insights
» | | The PIMCO Long-Term U.S. Government Portfolio seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing under normal circumstances at least 80% of its assets in a diversified portfolio of Fixed-Income Securities that are issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government, its agencies or government-sponsored enterprises (“U.S. Government Securities”). |
» | | The Portfolio’s emphasis on the short-term portion of the curve, especially the 0-1 year maturity bucket, throughout the six-month reporting period ended June 30, 2006 was a negative for relative performance because these rates rose the most as the yield curve flattened. |
» | | Because swap spreads widened over the first six months of 2006, the modest allocation to interest rate swaps negatively impacted returns relative to the benchmark. |
» | | An out-of-benchmark allocation to structured mortgages had a positive effect on relative performance as mortgages outperformed long-term Treasuries over the six-month reporting period ended June 30, 2006. |
» | | Long municipal bonds outperformance versus Treasuries with a similar duration was positive for the Portfolio’s relative performance during the six-month period due to a modest out-of-benchmark allocation to long municipal bonds. |
» | | A modest out-of-benchmark allocation to short Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities (“TIPS”) was positive for the six-month period ended June 30, 2006 while the modest out-of-benchmark allocation to long TIPS was negative as they respectively outperformed and underperformed long-term Treasuries. Overall, TIPS were positive over the six-month reporting period. |

Notes to Financial Statements
1. ORGANIZATION
The Long-Term U.S. Government Portfolio (the “Portfolio”) is a series of the PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust (the “Trust”). The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “Act”), as amended, as an open-end investment management company organized as a Delaware business trust on October 3, 1997. The Portfolio offers two classes of shares: Institutional and Administrative. Information presented in these financial statements pertains to the Institutional Class of the Portfolio. Certain detailed financial information for the Administrative Class is available upon request. The Trust is designed to be used as an investment vehicle by Separate Accounts of insurance companies that fund variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies and by qualified pension and retirement plans.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Portfolio in the preparation of its financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Security Valuation. Portfolio securities are valued as of the close of regular trading (normally 4:00 p.m., Eastern Time) on each day that the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) is open. Portfolio securities and other assets for which market quotes are readily available are stated at market value. Market value is generally determined on the basis of last reported sales prices, or if no sales are reported, based on quotes obtained from a quotation reporting system, established market makers, or pricing services. Fixed-income securities and non-exchange traded derivatives are normally valued on the basis of quotes obtained from brokers and dealers or pricing services. Prices obtained from independent pricing services use information provided by market makers or estimates of market values obtained from yield data relating to investments or securities with similar characteristics. Certain fixed-income securities purchased on a delayed-delivery basis are marked to market daily until settlement at the forward settlement date. Short-term investments having a maturity of 60 days or less are generally valued at amortized cost. Exchange traded options, futures and options on futures are valued at the settlement price determined by the relevant exchange.
Investments initially valued in currencies other than the U.S. dollar are converted to the U.S. dollar using exchange rates obtained from pricing services. As a result, the NAV of the Portfolio’s shares may be affected by changes in the value of currencies in relation to the U.S. dollar. The value of securities traded in markets outside the United States or denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar may be affected significantly on a day that the NYSE is closed and an investor is not able to purchase, redeem or exchange shares.
Securities and other assets for which market quotes are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction. The Board of Trustees has adopted methods for valuing securities and other assets in circumstances where market quotes are not readily available, and has delegated to Pacific Investment Management Company LLC (“PIMCO”) the responsibility for applying the valuation methods. In the event that market quotes are not readily available, and the security or asset cannot be valued pursuant to one of the valuation methods, the value of the security or asset will be determined in good faith by the Valuation Committee of the Board of Trustees, generally based upon recommendations provided by PIMCO.
Market quotes are considered not readily available in circumstances where there is an absence of current or reliable market-based data (e.g., trade information, bid/asked information, broker quotes), including where events occur after the close of the relevant market, but prior to the close of regular trading, that materially affect the values of the Portfolio’s securities or assets. In addition, market quotes are considered not readily available when, due to extraordinary circumstances, the exchanges or markets on which the securities trade do not open for trading for the entire day and no other market prices are available. The Board has delegated to PIMCO the responsibility for monitoring significant events that may materially affect the values of the Portfolio’s securities or assets and for determining whether the value of the applicable securities or assets should be re-evaluated in light of such significant events. When the Portfolio uses fair value pricing to determine its NAV, securities will not be priced on the basis of quotations from the primary market in which they are traded, but rather may be priced by another method that the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction believe accurately reflects fair value. The Trust’s policy is intended to result in a calculation of the Portfolio’s NAV that fairly reflects security values as of the time of pricing. However, fair values determined by the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction may not accurately reflect the price that the Portfolio could obtain for a security if it were to dispose of that security as of the time of pricing. Because foreign securities can trade on non-business days, the NAV of the Portfolio may change on days when shareholders will not be able to purchase or redeem shares. The prices used by the Portfolio may differ from the value that would be realized if the securities were sold and the differences could be material to the financial statements.
Securities Transactions and Investment Income. Securities transactions are recorded as of the trade date. Securities purchased or sold on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis may be settled a month or more after the trade date. Realized gains and losses from securities sold are recorded on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Portfolio is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, adjusted for the accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis. Paydown gains and losses on mortgage-related or asset-backed securities are recorded as components of interest income in the Statement of Operations.
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends from net investment income, if any, are declared on each day the Portfolio is open for business and are distributed to shareholders monthly. Net realized capital gains earned by the Portfolio, if any, will be distributed no less frequently than once each year. Most shareholders choose to reinvest their dividends and capital gain distribution in additional shares of the Portfolio.
Income dividends and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP. Differences between tax regulations and GAAP may change the fiscal year when income and capital items are recognized for tax and GAAP purposes. Examples of events that give rise to timing differences include wash sales, straddles, net operating losses and capital loss carryforwards. Further, the character of investment income and capital gains may be different for certain transactions under the two methods of accounting. Examples of characterization differences include the treatment of mortgage paydowns, swaps, foreign currency transactions and contingent debt instruments. As a result, income dividends and capital gain distributions declared during a fiscal period may differ significantly from the net investment income and realized capital gain reported in the Portfolio’s annual financial statements presented under GAAP.

Distributions classified as a tax basis return of capital, if any, are reflected in the accompanying Statements of Changes in Net Assets and have been reclassified to paid in capital. In addition, other amounts have been reclassified between undistributed net investment income, accumulated undistributed net realized gains or losses and/or paid in capital to more appropriately conform financial accounting to tax characterizations of dividend distributions.
Multiclass Operations. Each class offered by the Portfolio has equal rights as to assets and voting privileges (except that shareholders of a class have exclusive voting rights regarding any matter relating solely to that class of shares). Income and non-class specific expenses of the Portfolio are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative value of settled shares. Realized and unrealized capital gains and losses of the Portfolio are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative net assets of each class. Class specific expenses, where applicable, currently include administrative, distribution and servicing fees.
Delayed-Delivery Transactions. The Portfolio may purchase or sell securities on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis. These transactions involve a commitment by the Portfolio to purchase or sell securities for a predetermined price or yield, with payment and delivery taking place beyond the customary settlement period. When delayed-delivery purchases are outstanding, the Portfolio will designate liquid assets in an amount sufficient to meet the purchase price. When purchasing a security on a delayed-delivery basis, the Portfolio assumes the rights and risks of ownership of the security, including the risk of price and yield fluctuations, and takes such fluctuations into account when determining its net asset value. The Portfolio may dispose of or renegotiate a delayed-delivery transaction after it is entered into, and may sell when-issued securities before they are delivered, which may result in a capital gain or loss. When the Portfolio has sold a security on a delayed-delivery basis, the Portfolio does not participate in future gains and losses with respect to the security.
Federal Income Taxes. The Portfolio intends to qualify as a regulated investment company under sub-chapter M of the Internal Revenue Code and distribute all of its taxable income and net realized gains, if applicable, to shareholders. Accordingly, no provision for Federal income taxes has been made.
Futures Contracts. The Portfolio is authorized to enter into futures contracts. The Portfolio may use futures contracts to manage its exposure to the securities markets or to movements in interest rates and currency values. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are the imperfect correlation between the change in market value of the securities held by the Portfolio and the prices of futures contracts, the possibility of an illiquid market, and the inability of the counterparty to meet the terms of the contract. Futures contracts are valued based upon their quoted daily settlement prices. Upon entering into a futures contract, the Portfolio is required to deposit with its custodian, in a segregated account in the name of the futures broker, an amount of cash or U.S. Government and Agency Obligations in accordance with the initial margin requirements of the broker or exchange. Futures contracts are marked to market daily and an appropriate payable or receivable for the change in value (“variation margin”) is recorded by the Portfolio. Gains or losses are recognized but not considered realized until the contracts expire or are closed. Futures contracts involve, to varying degrees, risk of loss in excess of the variation margin disclosed in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
Inflation-Indexed Bonds. The Portfolio may invest in inflation-indexed bonds. Inflation-indexed bonds are fixed-income securities whose principal value is periodically adjusted to the rate of inflation. The interest rate on these bonds is generally fixed at issuance at a rate lower than typical bonds. Over the life of an inflation-indexed bond, however, interest will be paid based on a principal value, which is adjusted for inflation. Any increase in the principal amount of an inflation-indexed bond will be included as interest income in the Statement of Operations, even though investors do not receive their principal until maturity.
Options Contracts. The Portfolio may write call and put options on futures, swaps, securities or currencies it owns or in which it may invest. Writing put options tends to increase the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. Writing call options tends to decrease the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. When the Portfolio writes a call or put option, an amount equal to the premium received is recorded as a liability and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the option written. These liabilities are reflected as written options outstanding in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Certain options may be written with premiums to determined on a future date. The premiums for these options are based upon implied volatility parameters at specified terms. Premiums received from writing options which expire are treated as realized gains. Premiums received from writing options which are exercised or closed are added to the proceeds or offset against amounts paid on the underlying future, swap, security or currency transaction to determine the realized gain or loss. The Portfolio as a writer of an option has no control over whether the underlying future, swap, security or currency may be sold (call) or purchased (put) and as a result bears the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the future, swap, security or currency underlying the written option. There is the risk the Portfolio may not be able to enter into a closing transaction because of an illiquid market.
The Portfolio may also purchase put and call options. Purchasing call options tends to increase the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. Purchasing put options tends to decrease the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. The Portfolio pays a premium which is included in the Portfolio’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an investment and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the option. Premiums paid for purchasing options which expire are treated as realized losses. Certain options may be purchased with premiums to be determined on a future date. The premiums for these options are based upon implied volatility parameters at specified terms. The risk associated with purchasing put and call options is limited to the premium paid. Premiums paid for purchasing options which are exercised or closed are added to the amounts paid or offset against the proceeds on the underlying future, swap, security or currency transaction to determine the realized gain or loss.
Repurchase Agreements. The Portfolio may engage in repurchase transactions. Under the terms of a typical repurchase agreement, the Portfolio takes possession of an underlying debt obligation subject to an obligation of the seller to repurchase, and the Portfolio to resell, the obligation at an agreed-upon price and time. The market value of the collateral must be equal to or exceed at all times the total amount of the repurchase obligations, including interest. Securities purchased under repurchase agreements are reflected as an asset in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Generally, in the event of counterparty default, the Portfolio has the right to use the collateral to offset losses incurred. If the counterparty should default, the Portfolio will seek to sell the securities which it holds as collateral. This could involve procedural costs or delays in addition to a loss on the securities if their value should fall below their repurchase price.
Short Sales. The Portfolio may enter into short sales transactions. A short sale is a transaction in which the Portfolio sells securities it does not own in anticipation of a decline in the market price of the securities. Securities sold in short sale transactions and interest payable on such securities, if any, are reflected as a liability in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The Portfolio is obligated to deliver securities at the market price at the time the short position is closed. Possible losses from short sales may be unlimited, whereas losses from purchases cannot exceed the total amount invested.
Mortgage-Related and Other Asset-Backed Securities. The Portfolio may invest in mortgage-related or other asset-backed securities. These securities include mortgage pass-through securities, collateralized mortgage obligations (“CMOs”), commercial mortgage-backed securities, mortgage dollar rolls, CMO

Notes to Financial Statements (Cont.)
residuals, stripped mortgage-backed securities (“SMBSs”) and other securities that directly or indirectly represent a participation in, or are secured by and payable from, mortgage loans on real property. The value of some mortgage- or asset-backed securities may be particularly sensitive to changes in prevailing interest rates. Early repayment of principal on some mortgage-related securities may expose a Fund to a lower rate of return upon reinvestment of principal. The value of these securities may fluctuate in response to the market’s perception of the creditworthiness of the issuers. Additionally, although mortgages and mortgage-related securities are generally supported by some form of government or private guarantee and/or insurance, there is no assurance that private guarantors or insurers will meet their obligations.
One type of SMBS has one class receiving all of the interest from the mortgage assets (the interest-only, or “IO” class), while the other class will receive all of the principal (the principal-only, or “PO” class). Payments received for IOs are included in interest income in the Statement of Operations. Because principal will not be received at the maturity of an IO, adjustments are made to the book value of the security on a daily basis until maturity. These adjustments are included in interest income in the Statement of Operations. Payments received for POs are treated as reductions to the cost and par value of the securities.
Swap Agreements. The Portfolio may engage in swap transactions, including, but not limited to, swap agreements on interest rate to manage its exposure to interest rates and credit risk. In connection with these agreements, securities may be identified as collateral in accordance with the terms of the respective swap agreements.
Interest rate swap agreements involve the exchange by the Portfolio with another party of their respective commitments to pay or receive interest, e.g., an exchange of floating rate payments for fixed rate payments with respect to the notional amount of principal.
Swaps are marked to market daily based upon quotations from market makers and the change in value, if any, is recorded as unrealized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Payments received or made at the beginning of the measurement period are reflected as such in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. These upfront payments are recorded as realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations upon termination or maturity of the swap. A liquidation payment received or made at the termination of the swap is recorded as realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Net periodic payments received or paid by the Portfolio are included as part of realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Entering into these agreements involves, to varying degrees, elements of credit, market and documentation risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Such risks involve the possibility that there will be no liquid market for these agreements, that the counterparty to the agreements may default on its obligation to perform or disagree as to the meaning of contractual terms in the agreements and that there may be unfavorable changes in interest rates.
U.S. Government Agencies or Government-Sponsored Enterprises. Securities issued by U.S. Government agencies or government-sponsored enterprises may not be guaranteed by the U.S. Treasury. The Government National Mortgage Association (“GNMA”), a wholly owned U.S. Government corporation, is authorized to guarantee, with the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government, the timely payment of principal and interest on securities issued by institutions approved by GNMA and backed by pools of mortgages insured by the Federal Housing Administration or guaranteed by the Department of Veterans Affairs. Government-related guarantors (i.e., not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government) include the Federal National Mortgage Association (“FNMA” or “Fannie Mae”) and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“FHLMC” or “Freddie Mac”). Pass-through securities issued by FNMA are guaranteed as to timely payment of principal and interest by FNMA but are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government. FHLMC guarantees the timely payment of interest and ultimate collection of principal, but its participation certificates are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government.
Guarantees and Indemnifications. Under the Trust’s organizational documents, each Trustee, officer, employee or other agent of the Trust (including the Trust’s investment manager) is indemnified against certain liabilities that may arise out of performance of their duties to the Portfolio. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Portfolio enters into contracts that contain a variety of indemnification clauses. The Portfolio’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Portfolio that have not yet occurred. However, the Portfolio has not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts, and believes the risk of loss to be remote.
New Accounting Policies. In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes—an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (the “Interpretation”). The Interpretation is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. Management is currently evaluating the application of the Interpretation to the Portfolio and will provide additional information in relation to the Interpretation in the Portfolio’s annual financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2006.
3. FEES, EXPENSES, AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Investment Advisory Fee. PIMCO is a majority-owned subsidiary of Allianz Global Investors of America L.P. (“AGI”), and serves as investment adviser (the “Adviser”) to the Trust, pursuant to an investment advisory contract. The Adviser receives a monthly fee at an annual rate based on average daily net assets of the Portfolio. The Advisory Fee is charged at an annual rate of 0.225%.
Administration Fee. PIMCO serves as administrator (the “Administrator”), and provides administrative services to the Trust for which it receives a monthly administrative fee based on average daily net assets of the Portfolio. As the Administrator, PIMCO bears the costs of various third-party services, including audit, custodial, portfolio accounting, legal, transfer agency and printing costs. The Administration Fee is charged at the annual rate of 0.25%.
Distribution and Servicing Fees. Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC (“AGID”) is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of AGI and serves as the distributor of the Trust’s shares. The Trust is permitted to reimburse AGID on a quarterly basis, out of the Administrative Class assets of the Portfolio in the amount of 0.15% on an annual basis of the average daily net assets of that class, for payments made to financial intermediaries that provide services in connection with the distribution of shares or administration of plans or programs that use Portfolio shares as their funding medium. The effective rate paid to AGID was 0.15% during the current fiscal year.
Expenses. The Trust is responsible for the following expenses: (i) salaries and other compensation of any of the Trust’s executive officers and employees who are not officers, directors, stockholders or employees of PIMCO or its subsidiaries or affiliates; (ii) taxes and governmental fees; (iii) brokerage fees and commissions and other portfolio transaction expenses; (iv) the costs of borrowing money, including interest expenses and bank overdraft charges; (v) fees and expenses of the Trustees who are not “interested persons” of PIMCO or the Trust, and any counsel retained exclusively for their benefit; (vi) extraordinary expenses, including costs of litigation and indemnification expenses; (vii) organization expenses and (viii) any expenses allocated or allocable to a specific class of shares, which include service fees payable with respect to the Administrative Class shares and may include certain other expenses as permitted by the Trust’s Multiple Class Plan adopted pursuant to Rule 18f-3 under the Act and subject to review and approval

by the Trustees. The ratio of expenses to average net assets per share class, as disclosed in the Financial Highlights, may differ from the annual portfolio operating expenses per share class as disclosed in the Prospectus for the reasons set forth above.
For the current period ended June 30, 2006, each unaffiliated Trustee received an annual retainer of $15,000, plus $2,000 for each Board of Trustees quarterly meeting attended, $500 for each Board of Trustees committee meeting attended and $500 for each special board meeting attended, plus reimbursement of related expenses. In addition, each Committee Chair received an additional annual retainer of $500 and each Audit Committee Chair received an additional annual retainer of $1,500. These expenses are allocated on a pro-rata basis to each Portfolio of the Trust according to its respective net assets. The Trust pays no compensation directly to any Trustee or any other officer who is affiliated with the Administrator, all of whom receive remuneration for their services to the Trust from the Administrator or its affiliates.
4. PURCHASES AND SALES OF SECURITIES
The length of time the Portfolio has held a particular security is not generally a consideration in investment decisions. A change in the securities held by the Portfolio is known as “portfolio turnover”. The Portfolio may engage in frequent and active trading of portfolio securities to achieve its investment objective, particularly during periods of volatile market movements. High portfolio turnover (e.g., over 100%) involves correspondingly greater expenses to the Portfolio, including brokerage commissions or dealer mark-ups and other transaction costs on the sale of securities and reinvestments in other securities. Such sales may also result in realization of taxable capital gains, including short-term capital gains (which are generally taxed at ordinary income tax rates). The trading costs and tax effects associated with portfolio turnover may adversely affect the Portfolio’s performance.
Purchases and sales of securities (excluding short-term investments) for the period ended June 30, 2006 were as follows (amounts in thousands):

8. REGULATORY AND LITIGATION MATTERS
On June 1, 2004, the Attorney General of the State of New Jersey announced that it had dismissed PIMCO from a complaint filed by the New Jersey Attorney General on February 17, 2004, and that it had entered into a settlement agreement (the “New Jersey Settlement”) with Allianz Global Investors of America L.P. (“AGI”) (formerly known as Allianz Dresdner Asset Management of America L.P.), PEA Capital LLC (an entity affiliated with PIMCO through common ownership) (“PEA”) and Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC (“AGID”), in connection with the same matter. In the New Jersey Settlement, AGI, PEA and AGID neither admitted nor denied the allegations or conclusions of law, but did agree to pay New Jersey a civil fine of $15 million and $3 million for investigative costs and further potential enforcement initiatives against unrelated parties. They also undertook to implement certain governance changes. The complaint relating to the New Jersey Settlement alleged, among other things, that AGI, PEA and AGID had failed to disclose that they improperly allowed certain hedge funds to engage in “market timing” in certain funds. The complaint sought injunctive relief, civil monetary penalties, restitution and disgorgement of profits.

Notes to Financial Statements (Cont.)
Since February 2004, PIMCO, AGI, PEA, AGID, and certain of their affiliates, including the PIMCO Funds, the Allianz Funds (formerly known as PIMCO Funds: Multi-Manager Series), and the Trustees and employees of the PIMCO Funds, have been named as defendants in fifteen lawsuits filed in various jurisdictions. Eleven of those lawsuits concern “market timing,” and they have been transferred to and consolidated for pre-trial proceedings in a multi-district litigation proceeding in the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland; the other four lawsuits concern “revenue sharing” and have been consolidated into a single action in the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut. The lawsuits have been commenced as putative class actions on behalf of investors who purchased, held or redeemed shares of the various series of the PIMCO Funds and the Allianz Funds during specified periods, or as derivative actions on behalf of the PIMCO Funds and Allianz Funds.
The market timing actions in the District of Maryland generally allege that certain hedge funds were allowed to engage in “market timing” in certain of the PIMCO Funds and the Allianz Funds and this alleged activity was not disclosed. Pursuant to tolling agreements entered into with the derivative and class action plaintiffs, PIMCO, the Trustees, and certain employees of PIMCO who were previously named as defendants have all been dropped as defendants in the market timing actions; the plaintiffs continue to assert claims on behalf of the shareholders of the PIMCO Funds or on behalf of the PIMCO Funds themselves against other defendants. By order dated November 3, 2005, the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland granted the PIMCO Funds’ motion to dismiss claims asserted against it in a consolidated amended complaint where the PIMCO Funds were named, in the complaint, as a nominal defendant. The revenue sharing action in the District of Connecticut generally alleges that fund assets were inappropriately used to pay brokers to promote the PIMCO Funds and Allianz Funds, including directing fund brokerage transactions to such brokers, and that such alleged arrangements were not fully disclosed to shareholders. On August 11, 2005 the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut conducted a hearing on defendants’ motion to dismiss the consolidated amended complaint in the revenue sharing action but has not yet ruled on the motion to dismiss. The market timing and revenue sharing lawsuits seek, among other things, unspecified compensatory damages plus interest and, in some cases, punitive damages, the rescission of investment advisory contracts, the return of fees paid under those contracts and restitution.
Under Section 9(a) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“1940 Act”), if the New Jersey Settlement or any of the lawsuits described above were to result in a court injunction against AGI, PEA, AGID and/or their affiliates, PIMCO could, in the absence of exemptive relief granted by the SEC, be barred from serving as an investment adviser, and AGID could be barred from serving as principal underwriter, to any registered investment company, including the Portfolios of the Trust. In connection with an inquiry from the SEC concerning the status of the New Jersey Settlement under Section 9(a), PEA, AGID, AGI and certain of their affiliates (including PIMCO) (together, the “Applicants”) have sought exemptive relief from the SEC under Section 9(c) of the 1940 Act. The SEC has granted the Applicants a temporary exemption from the provisions of Section 9(a) with respect to the New Jersey Settlement until the earlier of (i) September 13, 2006 and (ii) the date on which the SEC takes final action on their application for a permanent order. There is no assurance that the SEC will issue a permanent order.
Two nearly identical class action civil complaints have been filed in August 2005, in the Northern District of Illinois Eastern Division alleging that the plaintiffs each purchased and sold a 10-year Treasury note futures contract and suffered damages from an alleged shortage when PIMCO held both physical and futures positions in 10-year Treasury notes for its client accounts. The two actions have been consolidated into one action, and the two separate complaints have been replaced by a consolidated complaint. PIMCO is a named defendant, and the PIMCO Funds have been added as a defendant, to the consolidated action. PIMCO strongly believes the complaint (and any consolidated complaint filed hereafter) is without merit and intends to vigorously defend itself.
Certain Portfolios of the Trust were recently served in an adversary proceeding brought by the Official Committee of Asbestos Claimants of G-I Holdings, Inc. in G-I Holdings, Inc.’s bankruptcy in the District of New Jersey. PIMCO was previously named in this lawsuit and remains a defendant. The plaintiff seeks to recover for the bankruptcy estate assets that were transferred by the predecessor entity of G-I Holdings, Inc. to a wholly-owned subsidiary in 1994. The subsidiary has since issued notes, of which certain Portfolios of the Trust are alleged to be holders. The complaint alleges that in 2000, more than two hundred noteholders—including certain Portfolios of the Trust—were granted a second priority lien on the assets of the subsidiary in exchange for their consent to a refinancing transaction and the granting of a first priority lien to the lending banks. The plaintiff is seeking invalidation of the lien in favor of the noteholders and/or the value of the lien.
It is possible that these matters and/or other developments resulting from these matters could result in increased fund redemptions or other adverse consequences to the Portfolios. However, PIMCO and AGID believe that these matters are not likely to have a material adverse effect on the Portfolios or on PIMCO’s or AGID’s ability to perform their respective investment advisory or distribution services relating to the Portfolios.

Chairman’s Letter
Dear PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust Shareholder:
It is our pleasure to present to you the semiannual report for the PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust covering the six-month period ended June 30, 2006.
Highlights of the global bond markets during the six-month period included:
| n | | Most fixed-income sectors lost ground during the first half of 2006, as concern about accelerating inflation and central bank tightening pushed interest rates higher worldwide. The benchmark Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index (which includes Treasury, Investment-Grade Corporate, and Residential Mortgage-Backed Securities) returned -0.72% for the first six months of the year. On June 30, the benchmark ten-year Treasury yielded 5.14%, 0.75% higher than at the start of the year. The U.S. yield curve remained flat as shorter-maturity yields rose by a comparable amount. |
| n | | The Federal Reserve tightened four times during the reporting period, bringing the Federal Funds Rate to 5.25%. The increase near the end of the period was the Federal Reserve’s 17th consecutive rate hike since the start of its tightening cycle in 2004. The Federal Reserve was not alone, as central banks in Europe, India, and China tightened credit in unison for the first time since 2000. The Bank of Japan, whose zero-interest-rate policy has flooded global markets with liquidity, looked set to reverse this policy in the coming months. |
In these pages please find a more complete Portfolio review as it relates to financial-market activities, as well as details about total-return investment performance for the six-month reporting period. Thank you for the trust you have placed in us. We will continue to work diligently to meet your investment needs.
Sincerely,

Brent R. Harris
Chairman, PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust

Important Information About the Portfolio
PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust (the “Trust”) is an open-end management investment company currently consisting of nineteen separate investment portfolios, including the Low Duration Portfolio (the “Portfolio”). The Portfolio is only available as a funding vehicle under variable life insurance policies or variable annuity contracts issued by insurance companies (“Variable Contracts”). Individuals may not purchase shares of the Portfolio directly. Shares of the Portfolio also may be sold to qualified pension and retirement plans outside of the separate account context.
We believe that bond funds have an important role to play in a well diversified investment portfolio. It is important to note, however, that in an environment where interest rates may trend upward, rising rates would negatively impact the performance of most bond funds, and fixed-income securities held by a fund are likely to decrease in value. The price volatility of fixed-income securities can also increase during periods of rising interest rates resulting in increased losses to a fund. Bond funds and individual bonds with a longer duration (a measure of the expected life of a security) tend to be more sensitive to changes in interest rates, usually making them more volatile than securities or funds with shorter durations. The longer-term performance of most bond funds has benefited from capital gains in part resulting from an extended period of declining interest rates. In the event interest rates increase, these capital gains should not be expected to recur.
The Portfolio may be subject to various risks in addition to those described above. Some of these risks may include, but are not limited to, the following: credit risk, high yield risk, market risk, issuer risk, liquidity risk, derivatives risk, mortgage risk, non-U.S. investment risk, currency risk, leveraging risk and management risk. A complete description of these risks is contained in the Portfolio’s prospectus. The Portfolio may use derivative instruments for hedging purposes or as part of an investment strategy. Use of these instruments may involve certain costs and risks such as liquidity risk, interest rate risk, market risk, credit risk, management risk and the risk that the Portfolio could not close out a position when it would be most advantageous to do so. A Portfolio investing in derivatives could lose more than the principal amount invested in these instruments. Investing in non-U.S. securities may entail risk due to non-U.S. economic and political developments.
On the performance summary page in this Semiannual Report, the Total Return Investment Performance table measures performance assuming that all dividend and capital gain distributions were reinvested.
An investment in the Portfolio is not a deposit of a bank and is not guaranteed or insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. It is possible to lose money on investments in the Portfolio.
PIMCO has adopted written proxy voting policies and procedures (“Proxy Policy”) as required by Rule 206(4)-6 under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940. The Proxy Policy has been adopted by the Trust as the policies and procedures that PIMCO will use when voting proxies on behalf of the Portfolio. Copies of the written Proxy Policy and the factors that PIMCO may consider in determining how to vote proxies for the Portfolio, and information about how the Portfolio voted proxies relating to portfolio securities held during the most recent twelve-month period ended June 30, are available without charge, upon request, by calling the Trust at 1-866-746-2606 and on the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) website at http://www.sec.gov.
The Portfolio files its complete schedule of portfolio holdings with the SEC for the first and third quarters of each fiscal year on Form N-Q. A copy of the Trust’s Form N-Q is available on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov and may be reviewed and copied at the SEC’s Public Reference Room in Washington D.C. Information on the operation of the Public Reference Room may be obtained by calling 1-800-SEC-0330.
PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust is distributed by Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC, 2187 Atlantic Street, Stamford, CT 06902.

The following disclosure provides important information regarding the Portfolio’s Expense Example (“Example” or “Expense Example”), which appears in this Semiannual Report. Please refer to this information when reviewing the Expense Example for the Portfolio.
Example
As a shareholder of the Portfolio, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs and (2) ongoing costs, including advisory and administrative fees; distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees (Administrative Class only); and other Portfolio expenses. The Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Portfolio and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Expense Example does not reflect any fees or other expenses imposed by the Variable Contracts. If it did, the expenses reflected in the Expense Examples would be higher. The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period indicated, which is from January 1, 206 to June 30, 2006.
Actual Expenses
The information in the table under the heading “Actual Performance” provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in these columns, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.60), then multiply the result by the number in the appropriate column for your share class, in the row titled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The information in the table under the heading “Hypothetical Performance (5% return before expenses)” provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Portfolio’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Portfolio’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Portfolio and other portfolios. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other portfolios.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs. Therefore, the information under the heading “Hypothetical Performance (5% return before expenses)” is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different portfolios. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.
The expense ratio may vary period to period because of various factors, such as an increase in expenses not covered by the advisory and administrative fees (such as expenses of the trustees and their counsel or litigation expense).
Portfolio Benchmark
The Merrill Lynch 1-3 Year Treasury Index is an unmanaged index that tracks the performance of the direct sovereign debt of the U.S. Government having a maturity of at least 1 year and less than 3 years. It is not possible to invest directly in the index.

** The Portfolio began operations on 02/16/99. Index comparisons began on 02/28/99.
Past performance is no guarantee of future results. The performance quoted represents past performance. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so the Portfolio shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. The Portfolio’s performance does not reflect the deduction of additional charges and expenses imposed in connection with investing in Variable Contracts, which will reduce returns. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. Performance data current to the most recent month-end is available by calling (800) 927-4648.

Expenses Paid During Period† | | | | $ | 3.23 | | | | $ | 3.26 |
† Expenses are equal to the Portfolio’s Administrative Class annualized expense ratio of 0.65%, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 181/365 (to reflect the one-half year period). Overall fees and expenses of investing in the Portfolio will be higher because the example does not reflect Variable Contract fees and expenses.

Portfolio Insights
» | | The PIMCO Low Duration Portfolio seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 65% of its total assets in a diversified portfolio of Fixed-Income Securities of varying maturities. |
» | | Duration and maturity structure were the most significant detractors from the Portfolio’s performance during the six-month period ended June 30, 2006. |
» | | The Portfolio’s above index duration detracted from returns as concerns about accelerating inflation and more monetary tightening pushed interest rates higher. |
» | | The Portfolio’s broader-than-index maturity structure with a curve steepening bias detracted from returns as the yield curve continued to flatten. |
» | | A mortgage emphasis added to returns as this sector outperformed Treasuries on a like-duration basis. Security selection within the mortgage sector also enhanced performance. |
» | | Investment grade and high-yield corporate bonds were positive as these issues benefited from a strengthening economy and investors’ search for extra yield. |
» | | Minimal exposure to high-quality emerging markets was slightly positive for performance as emerging markets bonds benefited from continued improvement in credit fundamentals and investors’ demand for higher-yielding securities early in the period. |

Notes to Financial Statements
1. ORGANIZATION
The Low Duration Portfolio (the “Portfolio”) is a series of the PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust (the “Trust”). The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “Act”), as amended, as an open-end investment management company organized as a Delaware business trust on October 3, 1997. The Portfolio offers three classes of shares: Institutional, Administrative and Advisor. Information presented in these financial statements pertains to the Administrative Class of the Portfolio. Certain detailed financial information for the Institutional Class and Advisor Class is provided separately and is available upon request. The Trust is designed to be used as an investment vehicle by Separate Accounts of insurance companies that fund variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies and by qualified pension and retirement plans.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Portfolio in the preparation of its financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Security Valuation. Portfolio securities are valued as of the close of regular trading (normally 4:00 p.m., Eastern Time) on each day that the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) is open. Portfolio securities and other assets for which market quotes are readily available are stated at market value. Market value is generally determined on the basis of last reported sales prices, or if no sales are reported, based on quotes obtained from a quotation reporting system, established market makers, or pricing services. Fixed-income securities and non-exchange traded derivatives are normally valued on the basis of quotes obtained from brokers and dealers or pricing services. Prices obtained from independent pricing services use information provided by market makers or estimates of market values obtained from yield data relating to investments or securities with similar characteristics. Certain fixed-income securities purchased on a delayed-delivery basis are marked to market daily until settlement at the forward settlement date. Short-term investments having a maturity of 60 days or less are generally valued at amortized cost. Exchange traded options, futures and options on futures are valued at the settlement price determined by the relevant exchange.
Investments initially valued in currencies other than the U.S. dollar are converted to the U.S. dollar using exchange rates obtained from pricing services. As a result, the NAV of the Portfolio’s shares may be affected by changes in the value of currencies in relation to the U.S. dollar. The value of securities traded in markets outside the United States or denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar may be affected significantly on a day that the NYSE is closed and an investor is not able to purchase, redeem or exchange shares.
Securities and other assets for which market quotes are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction. The Board of Trustees has adopted methods for valuing securities and other assets in circumstances where market quotes are not readily available, and has delegated to Pacific Investment Management Company LLC (“PIMCO”) the responsibility for applying the valuation methods. In the event that market quotes are not readily available, and the security or asset cannot be valued pursuant to one of the valuation methods, the value of the security or asset will be determined in good faith by the Valuation Committee of the Board of Trustees, generally based upon recommendations provided by PIMCO.
Market quotes are considered not readily available in circumstances where there is an absence of current or reliable market-based data (e.g., trade information, bid/asked information, broker quotes), including where events occur after the close of the relevant market, but prior to the close of regular trading, that materially affect the values of the Portfolio’s securities or assets. In addition, market quotes are considered not readily available when, due to extraordinary circumstances, the exchanges or markets on which the securities trade do not open for trading for the entire day and no other market prices are available. The Board has delegated to PIMCO the responsibility for monitoring significant events that may materially affect the values of the Portfolio’s securities or assets and for determining whether the value of the applicable securities or assets should be re-evaluated in light of such significant events when the Portfolio uses fair value pricing to determine its NAV, securities will not be priced on the basis of quotations from the primary market in which they are traded, but rather may be priced by another method that the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction believe accurately reflects fair value. The Trust’s policy is intended to result in a calculation of the Portfolio’s NAV that fairly reflects security values as of the time of pricing. However, fair values determined by the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction may not accurately reflect the price that the Portfolio could obtain for a security if it were to dispose of that security as of the time of pricing. Because foreign securities can trade on non-business days, the NAV of the Portfolio may change on days when shareholders will not be able to purchase or redeem shares. The prices used by the Portfolio may differ from the value that would be realized if the securities were sold and the differences could be material to the financial statements.
Securities Transactions and Investment Income. Securities transactions are recorded as of the trade date. Securities purchased or sold on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis may be settled a month or more after the trade date. Realized gains and losses from securities sold are recorded on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Portfolio is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, adjusted for the accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis. Paydown gains and losses on mortgage-related or asset-backed securities are recorded as components of interest income in the Statement of Operations.
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends from net investment income, if any, are declared on each day the Portfolio is open for business and are distributed to shareholders monthly. Net realized capital gains earned by the Portfolio, if any, will be distributed no less frequently than once each year. Most shareholders choose to reinvest their dividends and capital gain distribution in additional shares of the Portfolio.
Income dividends and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP. Differences between tax regulations and GAAP may change the fiscal year when income and capital items are recognized for tax and GAAP purposes. Examples of events that give rise to timing differences include wash sales, straddles, net operating losses and capital loss carryforwards. Further, the character of investment income and capital gains may be different for certain transactions under the two methods of accounting. Examples of characterization differences include the treatment of mortgage paydowns, swaps, foreign currency transactions and contingent debt instruments. As a result, income dividends and capital gain distributions declared during a fiscal period may differ significantly from the net investment income and realized capital gain reported in the Portfolio’s annual financial statements presented under GAAP.
Distributions classified as a tax basis return of capital, if any, are reflected in the accompanying Statements of Changes in Net Assets and have been reclassified to
| | | | |

| |
| | June 30, 2006 (Unaudited) |
paid in capital. In addition, other amounts have been reclassified between undistributed net investment income, accumulated undistributed net realized gains or losses and/or paid in capital to more appropriately conform financial accounting to tax characterizations of dividend distributions.
Multiclass Operations. Each class offered by the Portfolio has equal rights as to assets and voting privileges (except that shareholders of a class have exclusive voting rights regarding any matter relating solely to that class of shares). Income and non-class specific expenses of the Portfolio are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative value of settled shares. Realized and unrealized capital gains and losses of the Portfolio are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative net assets of each class. Class specific expenses, where applicable, currently include administrative, distribution and servicing fees.
Federal Income Taxes. The Portfolio intends to qualify as a regulated investment company under sub-chapter M of the Internal Revenue Code and distribute all of its taxable income and net realized gains, if applicable, to shareholders. Accordingly, no provision for Federal income taxes has been made.
Foreign Currency. The accounting records of the Portfolio are maintained in U.S. dollar. The market values of foreign securities, currency holdings and other assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollar based on the current exchange rates each business day. Fluctuations in the value of currency holdings and other assets and liabilities resulting from changes in exchange rates are recorded as unrealized foreign currency gains or losses. Realized gains or losses and unrealized appreciation or depreciation on investment securities and income and expenses are translated on the respective dates of such transactions. The effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on investments in securities are not segregated in the Statement of Operations from the effects of changes in market prices of those securities, but are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss on investment securities.

Forward Currency Transactions. The Portfolio may enter into forward currency contracts in connection with settling planned purchases or sales of securities, to hedge the currency exposure associated with some or all of the Portfolio’s securities or as a part of an investment strategy. A forward currency contract is an agreement between two parties to buy and sell a currency at a set price on a future date. The market value of a forward currency contract fluctuates with changes in forward currency exchange rates. Forward currency contracts are marked to market daily and the change in value is recorded by the Portfolio as an unrealized gain or loss. Realized gains or losses equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed are recorded upon delivery or receipt of the currency or, if a forward currency contract is offset by entering into another forward currency contract with the same broker, upon settlement of the net gain or loss. These contracts may involve market risk in excess of the unrealized gain or loss reflected in the Portfolio’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities. In addition, the Portfolio could be exposed to risk if the counterparties are unable to meet the terms of the contracts or if the value of the currency changes unfavorably to the U.S. dollar.
Futures Contracts. The Portfolio is authorized to enter into futures contracts. The Portfolio may use futures contracts to manage its exposure to the securities markets or to movements in interest rates and currency values. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are the imperfect correlation between the change in market value of the securities held by the Portfolio and the prices of futures contracts, the possibility of an illiquid market, and the inability of the counterparty to meet the terms of the contract. Futures contracts are valued based upon their quoted daily settlement prices. Upon entering into a futures contract, the Portfolio is required to deposit with its custodian, in a segregated account in the name of the futures broker, an amount of cash or U.S. Government and Agency Obligations in accordance with the initial margin requirements of the broker or exchange. Futures contracts are marked to market daily and an appropriate payable or receivable for the change in value (“variation margin”) is recorded by the Portfolio. Gains or losses are recognized but not considered realized until the contracts expire or are closed. Futures contracts involve, to varying degrees, risk of loss in excess of the variation margin disclosed in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
Options Contracts. The Portfolio may write call and put options on futures, swaps, securities or currencies it owns or in which it may invest. Writing put options tends to increase the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. Writing call options tends to decrease the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. When the Portfolio writes a call or put option, an amount equal to the premium received is recorded as a liability and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the option written. These liabilities are reflected as written options outstanding in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Certain options may be written with premiums to determined on a future date. The premiums for these options are based upon implied volatility parameters at specified terms. Premiums received from writing options which expire are treated as realized gains. Premiums received from writing options which are exercised or closed are added to the proceeds or offset against amounts paid on the underlying future, swap, security or currency transaction to determine the realized gain or loss. The Portfolio as a writer of an option has no control over whether the underlying future, swap, security or currency may be sold (call) or purchased (put) and as a result bears the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the future, swap, security or currency underlying the written option. There is the risk the Portfolio may not be able to enter into a closing transaction because of an illiquid market.
The Portfolio may also purchase put and call options. Purchasing call options tends to increase the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. Purchasing put options tends to decrease the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. The Portfolio pays a premium which is included in the Portfolio’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an investment and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the option. Premiums paid for purchasing options which expire are treated as realized losses. Certain options may be purchased with premiums to be determined on a future date. The premiums for these options are based upon implied volatility parameters at specified terms. The risk associated with purchasing put and call options is limited to the premium paid. Premiums paid for purchasing options which are exercised or closed are added to the amounts paid or offset against the proceeds on the underlying future, swap, security or currency transaction to determine the realized gain or loss.
Repurchase Agreements. The Portfolio may engage in repurchase transactions. Under the terms of a typical repurchase agreement, the Portfolio takes possession of an underlying debt obligation subject to an obligation of the seller to repurchase, and the Portfolio to resell, the obligation at an agreed-upon price and
| | | | | | |
| | Semiannual Report | | June 30, 2006 | | 15 |
Notes to Financial Statements (Cont.)
time. The market value of the collateral must be equal to or exceed at all times the total amount of the repurchase obligations, including interest. Securities purchased under repurchase agreements are reflected as an asset in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Generally, in the event of counterparty default, the Portfolio has the right to use the collateral to offset losses incurred. If the counterparty should default, the Portfolio will seek to sell the securities which it holds as collateral. This could involve procedural costs or delays in addition to a loss on the securities if their value should fall below their repurchase price.
Mortgage-Related and Other Asset-Backed Securities. The Portfolio may invest in mortgage-related or other asset-backed securities. These securities include mortgage pass-through securities, collateralized mortgage obligations (“CMOs”), commercial mortgage-backed securities, mortgage dollar rolls, CMO residuals, stripped mortgage-backed securities (“SMBSs”) and other securities that directly or indirectly represent a participation in, or are secured by and payable from, mortgage loans on real property. The value of some mortgage- or asset-backed securities may be particularly sensitive to changes in prevailing interest rates. Early repayment of principal on some mortgage-related securities may expose a Portfolio to a lower rate of return upon reinvestment of principal. The value of these securities may fluctuate in response to the market’s perception of the creditworthiness of the issuers. Additionally, although mortgages and mortgage-related securities are generally supported by some form of government or private guarantee and/or insurance, there is no assurance that private guarantors or insurers will meet their obligations.
Swap Agreements. The Portfolio may engage in swap transactions, including, but not limited to, swap agreements on interest rate and credit default to manage its exposure to interest rates and credit risk. In connection with these agreements, securities may be identified as collateral in accordance with the terms of the respective swap agreements.
Interest rate swap agreements involve the exchange by the Portfolio with another party of their respective commitments to pay or receive interest, e.g., an exchange of floating rate payments for fixed rate payments with respect to the notional amount of principal.
Credit default swap agreements involve one party making a stream of payments to another party in exchange for the right to receive a specified return in the event of a default by a third party, typically corporate issues or sovereign issues of an emerging country, on its obligation. The Portfolio may use credit default swaps to provide a measure of protection against defaults of the issuers (i.e., to reduce risk where the Portfolio owns or has exposure to the sovereign issuer) or to take an active long or short position with respect to the likelihood of a particular issuer’s default. As a seller of protection, the Portfolio generally receives an upfront payment or a fixed rate of income throughout the term of the swap provided that there is no credit event. If the Portfolio is a seller of protection and a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement, the Portfolio will pay to the buyer of the protection an amount up to the notional value of the swap and in certain instances take delivery of the security. As the seller, the Portfolio would effectively add leverage to its portfolio because, in addition to its total net assets, the Portfolio would be subject to investment exposure on the notional amount of the swap. As a buyer of protection, the Portfolio generally receives an amount up to the notional value of the swap if a credit event occurs. The treatment of credit default swaps and other swap agreements that provide for contingent, non-periodic, bullet-type payments as “notional principal contracts” for federal income tax purposes is uncertain. Were the Internal Revenue Service to take the position that a credit default swap or other bullet-type swap is not a “notional principal contract” for federal income tax purposes, payments received by the Portfolio from such investments might be subject to income taxes.
Swaps are marked to market daily based upon quotations from market makers and the change in value, if any, is recorded as unrealized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Payments received or made at the beginning of the measurement period are reflected as such in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. These upfront payments are recorded as realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations upon termination or maturity of the swap. A liquidation payment received or made at the termination of the swap is recorded as realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Net periodic payments received or paid by the Portfolio are included as part of realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Entering into these agreements involves, to varying degrees, elements of credit, market and documentation risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Such risks involve the possibility that there will be no liquid market for these agreements, that the counterparty to the agreements may default on its obligation to perform or disagree as to the meaning of contractual terms in the agreements and that there may be unfavorable changes in interest rates.
U.S. Government Agencies or Government-Sponsored Enterprises. Securities issued by U.S. Government agencies or government-sponsored enterprises may not be guaranteed by the U.S. Treasury. The Government National Mortgage Association (“GNMA”), a wholly owned U.S. Government corporation, is authorized to guarantee, with the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government, the timely payment of principal and interest on securities issued by institutions approved by GNMA and backed by pools of mortgages insured by the Federal Housing Administration or guaranteed by the Department of Veterans Affairs. Government-related guarantors (i.e., not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government) include the Federal National Mortgage Association (“FNMA” or “Fannie Mae”) and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“FHLMC” or “Freddie Mac”). Pass-through securities issued by FNMA are guaranteed as to timely payment of principal and interest by FNMA but are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government. FHLMC guarantees the timely payment of interest and ultimate collection of principal, but its participation certificates are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government.
Guarantees and Indemnifications. Under the Trust’s organizational documents, each Trustee, officer, employee or other agent of the Trust (including the Trust’s investment manager) is indemnified against certain liabilities that may arise out of performance of their duties to the Portfolio. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Portfolio enters into contracts that contain a variety of indemnification clauses. The Portfolio’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Portfolio that have not yet occurred. However, the Portfolio has not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts, and believes the risk of loss to be remote.
New Accounting Policies. In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes—an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (the “Interpretation”). The Interpretation is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. Management is currently evaluating the application of the Interpretation to the Portfolio and will provide additional information in relation to the Interpretation in the Portfolio’s annual financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2006.

The effective rate paid to AGID was 0.15% during the current fiscal year.
Expenses. The Trust is responsible for the following expenses: (i) salaries and other compensation of any of the Trust’s executive officers and employees who are not officers, directors, stockholders or employees of PIMCO or its subsidiaries or affiliates; (ii) taxes and governmental fees; (iii) brokerage fees and commissions and other portfolio transaction expenses; (iv) the costs of borrowing money, including interest expenses and bank overdraft charges; (v) fees and expenses of the Trustees who are not “interested persons” of PIMCO or the Trust, and any counsel retained exclusively for their benefit; (vi) extraordinary expenses, including costs of litigation and indemnification expenses; (vii) organization expenses and (viii) any expenses allocated or allocable to a specific class of shares, which include service fees payable with respect to the Administrative Class shares and may include certain other expenses as permitted by the Trust’s Multiple Class Plan adopted pursuant to Rule 18f-3 under the Act and subject to review and approval by the Trustees. The ratio of expenses to average net assets per share class, as disclosed in the Financial Highlights, may differ from the annual portfolio operating expenses per share class as disclosed in the Prospectus for the reasons set forth above.
For the current period ended June 30, 2006, each unaffiliated Trustee received an annual retainer of $15,000, plus $2,000 for each Board of Trustees quarterly meeting attended, $500 for each Board of Trustees committee meeting attended and $500 for each special board meeting attended, plus reimbursement of related expenses. In addition, each Committee Chair received an additional annual retainer of $500 and each Audit Committee Chair received an additional annual retainer of $1,500. These expenses are allocated on a pro-rata basis to each Portfolio of the Trust according to its respective net assets. The Trust pays no compensation directly to any Trustee or any other officer who is affiliated with the Administrator, all of whom receive remuneration for their services to the Trust from the Administrator or its affiliates.
4. PURCHASES AND SALES OF SECURITIES
The length of time the Portfolio has held a particular security is not generally a consideration in investment decisions. A change in the securities held by the Portfolio is known as “portfolio turnover”. The Portfolio may engage in frequent and active trading of portfolio securities to achieve its investment objective, particularly during periods of volatile market movements. High portfolio turnover (e.g., over 100%) involves correspondingly greater expenses to the Portfolio, including brokerage commissions or dealer mark-ups and other transaction costs on the sale of securities and reinvestments in other securities. Such sales may also result in realization of taxable capital gains, including short-term capital gains (which are generally taxed at ordinary income tax rates). The trading costs and tax effects associated with portfolio turnover may adversely affect the Portfolio’s performance.
Purchases and sales of securities (excluding short-term investments) for the period ended June 30, 2006 were as follows (amounts in thousands):

8. REGULATORY AND LITIGATION MATTERS
On June 1, 2004, the Attorney General of the State of New Jersey announced that it had dismissed PIMCO from a complaint filed by the New Jersey Attorney General on February 17, 2004, and that it had entered into a settlement agreement (the “New Jersey Settlement”) with Allianz Global Investors of America L.P. (“AGI”) (formerly known as Allianz Dresdner Asset Management of America L.P.), PEA Capital LLC (an entity affiliated with PIMCO through common ownership) (“PEA”) and Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC (“AGID”), in connection with the same matter. In the New Jersey Settlement, AGI, PEA and AGID neither admitted nor denied the allegations or conclusions of law, but did agree to pay New Jersey a civil fine of $15 million and $3 million for investigative costs and further potential enforcement initiatives against unrelated parties. They also undertook to implement certain governance changes. The complaint relating to the New Jersey Settlement alleged, among other things, that AGI, PEA and AGID had failed to disclose that they improperly allowed certain hedge funds to engage in “market timing” in certain funds. The complaint sought injunctive relief, civil monetary penalties, restitution and disgorgement of profits.
Since February 2004, PIMCO, AGI, PEA, AGID, and certain of their affiliates, including the PIMCO Funds, the Allianz Funds (formerly known as PIMCO Funds: Multi-Manager Series), and the Trustees and employees of the PIMCO Funds, have been named as defendants in fifteen lawsuits filed in various jurisdictions. Eleven of those lawsuits concern “market timing,” and they have been transferred to and consolidated for pre-trial proceedings in a multi-district litigation proceeding in the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland; the other four lawsuits concern “revenue sharing” and have been consolidated into a single action in the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut. The lawsuits have been commenced as putative class actions on behalf of investors who purchased, held or redeemed shares of the various series of the PIMCO Funds and the Allianz Funds during specified periods, or as derivative actions on behalf of the PIMCO Funds and Allianz Funds.
The market timing actions in the District of Maryland generally allege that certain hedge funds were allowed to engage in “market timing” in certain of the PIMCO Funds and the Allianz Funds and this alleged activity was not disclosed. Pursuant to tolling agreements entered into with the derivative and class action plaintiffs, PIMCO, the Trustees, and certain employees of PIMCO who were previously named as defendants have all been dropped as defendants in the market timing actions; the plaintiffs continue to assert claims on behalf of the shareholders of the PIMCO Funds or on behalf of the PIMCO Funds themselves against other defendants. By order dated November 3, 2005, the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland granted the PIMCO Funds’ motion to dismiss claims asserted against it in a consolidated amended complaint where the PIMCO Funds were named, in the complaint, as a nominal defendant. The revenue sharing action in the District of Connecticut generally alleges that fund assets were inappropriately used to pay brokers to promote the PIMCO Funds and Allianz Funds, including directing fund brokerage transactions to such brokers, and that such alleged arrangements were not fully disclosed to shareholders. On August 11, 2005 the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut conducted a hearing on defendants’ motion to dismiss the consolidated amended complaint in the revenue sharing action but has not yet ruled on the motion to dismiss. The market timing and revenue sharing lawsuits seek, among other things, unspecified compensatory damages plus interest and, in some cases, punitive damages, the rescission of investment advisory contracts, the return of fees paid under those contracts and restitution.
Under Section 9(a) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“1940 Act”), if the New Jersey Settlement or any of the lawsuits described above were to result in a court injunction against AGI, PEA, AGID and/or their affiliates, PIMCO could, in the absence of exemptive relief granted by the SEC, be barred from serving as an investment adviser, and AGID could be barred from serving as principal underwriter, to any registered investment company, including the Portfolios of the Trust. In connection with an inquiry from the SEC concerning the status of the New Jersey Settlement under Section 9(a), PEA, AGID, AGI and certain of their affiliates (including PIMCO) (together, the “Applicants”) have sought exemptive relief from the SEC under Section 9(c) of the 1940 Act. The SEC has granted the Applicants a temporary exemption from the provisions of Section 9(a) with respect to the New Jersey Settlement until the earlier of (i) September 13, 2006 and (ii) the date on which the SEC takes final action on their application for a permanent order. There is no assurance that the SEC will issue a permanent order.
Two nearly identical class action civil complaints have been filed in August 2005, in the Northern District of Illinois Eastern Division alleging that the plaintiffs each purchased and sold a 10-year Treasury note futures contract and suffered damages from an alleged shortage when PIMCO held both physical and futures positions in 10-year Treasury notes for its client accounts. The two actions have been consolidated into one action, and the two separate complaints have been replaced by a consolidated complaint. PIMCO is a named defendant, and the PIMCO Funds have been added as a defendant, to the consolidated action. PIMCO strongly believes the complaint (and any consolidated complaint filed hereafter) is without merit and intends to vigorously defend itself.
Certain Portfolios of the Trust were recently served in an adversary proceeding brought by the Official Committee of Asbestos Claimants of G-I Holdings, Inc. in G-I Holdings, Inc.’s bankruptcy in the District of New Jersey. PIMCO was previously named in this lawsuit and remains a defendant. The plaintiff seeks to recover for the bankruptcy estate assets that were transferred by the predecessor entity of G-I Holdings, Inc. to a wholly-owned subsidiary in 1994. The subsidiary has since issued notes, of which certain Portfolios of the Trust are alleged to be holders. The complaint alleges that in 2000, more than two hundred noteholders—including certain Portfolios of the Trust—were granted a second priority lien on the assets of the subsidiary in exchange for their consent to a refinancing transaction and the granting of a first priority lien to the lending banks. The plaintiff is seeking invalidation of the lien in favor of the noteholders and/or the value of the lien.
It is possible that these matters and/or other developments resulting from these matters could result in increased fund redemptions or other adverse consequences to the Portfolios. However, PIMCO and AGID believe that these matters are not likely to have a material adverse effect on the Portfolios or on PIMCO’s or AGID’s ability to perform their respective investment advisory or distribution services relating to the Portfolios.

Chairman’s Letter
Dear PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust Shareholder:
It is our pleasure to present to you the semiannual report for the PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust covering the six-month period ended June 30, 2006.
Highlights of the global bond markets during the six-month period included:
| n | | Most fixed-income sectors lost ground during the first half of 2006, as concern about accelerating inflation and central bank tightening pushed interest rates higher worldwide. The benchmark Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index (which includes Treasury, Investment-Grade Corporate, and Residential Mortgage-Backed Securities) returned -0.72% for the first six months of the year. On June 30, the benchmark ten-year Treasury yielded 5.14%, 0.75% higher than at the start of the year. The U.S. yield curve remained flat as shorter-maturity yields rose by a comparable amount. |
| n | | The Federal Reserve tightened four times during the reporting period, bringing the Federal Funds Rate to 5.25%. The increase near the end of the period was the Federal Reserve’s 17th consecutive rate hike since the start of its tightening cycle in 2004. The Federal Reserve was not alone, as central banks in Europe, India, and China tightened credit in unison for the first time since 2000. The Bank of Japan, whose zero-interest-rate policy has flooded global markets with liquidity, looked set to reverse this policy in the coming months. |
In these pages please find a more complete Portfolio review as it relates to financial-market activities, as well as details about total-return investment performance for the six-month reporting period. Thank you for the trust you have placed in us. We will continue to work diligently to meet your investment needs.
Sincerely,

Brent R. Harris
Chairman, PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust

Important Information About the Portfolio
PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust (the “Trust”) is an open-end management investment company currently consisting of nineteen separate investment portfolios, including the Low Duration Portfolio (the “Portfolio”). The Portfolio is only available as a funding vehicle under variable life insurance policies or variable annuity contracts issued by insurance companies (“Variable Contracts”). Individuals may not purchase shares of the Portfolio directly. Shares of the Portfolio also may be sold to qualified pension and retirement plans outside of the separate account context.
We believe that bond funds have an important role to play in a well diversified investment portfolio. It is important to note, however, that in an environment where interest rates may trend upward, rising rates would negatively impact the performance of most bond funds, and fixed-income securities held by a fund are likely to decrease in value. The price volatility of fixed-income securities can also increase during periods of rising interest rates resulting in increased losses to a fund. Bond funds and individual bonds with a longer duration (a measure of the expected life of a security) tend to be more sensitive to changes in interest rates, usually making them more volatile than securities or funds with shorter durations. The longer-term performance of most bond funds has benefited from capital gains in part resulting from an extended period of declining interest rates. In the event interest rates increase, these capital gains should not be expected to recur.
The Portfolio may be subject to various risks in addition to those described above. Some of these risks may include, but are not limited to, the following: credit risk, high yield risk, market risk, issuer risk, liquidity risk, derivatives risk, mortgage risk, non-U.S. investment risk, currency risk, leveraging risk and management risk. A complete description of these risks is contained in the Portfolio’s prospectus. The Portfolio may use derivative instruments for hedging purposes or as part of an investment strategy. Use of these instruments may involve certain costs and risks such as liquidity risk, interest rate risk, market risk, credit risk, management risk and the risk that the Portfolio could not close out a position when it would be most advantageous to do so. A Portfolio investing in derivatives could lose more than the principal amount invested in these instruments. Investing in non-U.S. securities may entail risk due to non-U.S. economic and political developments.
On the performance summary page in this Semiannual Report, the Total Return Investment Performance table measures performance assuming that all dividend and capital gain distributions were reinvested.
An investment in the Portfolio is not a deposit of a bank and is not guaranteed or insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. It is possible to lose money on investments in the Portfolio.
PIMCO has adopted written proxy voting policies and procedures (“Proxy Policy”) as required by Rule 206(4)-6 under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940. The Proxy Policy has been adopted by the Trust as the policies and procedures that PIMCO will use when voting proxies on behalf of the Portfolio. Copies of the written Proxy Policy and the factors that PIMCO may consider in determining how to vote proxies for the Portfolio, and information about how the Portfolio voted proxies relating to portfolio securities held during the most recent twelve-month period ended June 30, are available without charge, upon request, by calling the Trust at 1-866-746-2606 and on the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) website at http://www.sec.gov.
The Portfolio files its complete schedule of portfolio holdings with the SEC for the first and third quarters of each fiscal year on Form N-Q. A copy of the Trust’s Form N-Q is available on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov and may be reviewed and copied at the SEC’s Public Reference Room in Washington D.C. Information on the operation of the Public Reference Room may be obtained by calling 1-800-SEC-0330.
PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust is distributed by Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC, 2187 Atlantic Street, Stamford, CT 06902.

The following disclosure provides important information regarding the Portfolio’s Expense Example (“Example” or “Expense Example”), which appears in this Semiannual Report. Please refer to this information when reviewing the Expense Example for the Portfolio.
Example
As a shareholder of the Portfolio, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs and (2) ongoing costs, including advisory and administrative fees; distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees (Administrative Class only); and other Portfolio expenses. The Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Portfolio and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Expense Example does not reflect any fees or other expenses imposed by the Variable Contracts. If it did, the expenses reflected in the Expense Examples would be higher. The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period indicated, which is from January 1, 206 to June 30, 2006.
Actual Expenses
The information in the table under the heading “Actual Performance” provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in these columns, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.60), then multiply the result by the number in the appropriate column for your share class, in the row titled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The information in the table under the heading “Hypothetical Performance (5% return before expenses)” provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Portfolio’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Portfolio’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Portfolio and other portfolios. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other portfolios.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs. Therefore, the information under the heading “Hypothetical Performance (5% return before expenses)” is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different portfolios. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.
The expense ratio may vary period to period because of various factors, such as an increase in expenses not covered by the advisory and administrative fees (such as expenses of the trustees and their counsel or litigation expense).
Portfolio Benchmark
The Merrill Lynch 1-3 Year Treasury Index is an unmanaged index that tracks the performance of the direct sovereign debt of the U.S. Government having a maturity of at least 1 year and less than 3 years. It is not possible to invest directly in the index.

** The Institutional Class shares commenced operations on 04/10/00. Index comparisons began on 03/31/00.
Past performance is no guarantee of future results. The performance quoted represents past performance. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so the Portfolio shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. The Portfolio’s performance does not reflect the deduction of additional charges and expenses imposed in connection with investing in Variable Contracts, which will reduce returns. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. Performance data current to the most recent month-end is available by calling (800) 927-4648.

Expense Example | | Actual Performance | | | | Hypothetical Performance |
| | | | | | (5% return before expenses) |

Ending Account Value (06/30/06) | | $ | 1,007.40 | | | | $ | 1,022.32 |
Expenses Paid During Period† | | $ | 2.49 | | | | $ | 2.51 |
† Expenses are equal to the Portfolio’s Institutional Class annualized expense ratio of 0.50%, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 181/365 (to reflect the one-half year period). Overall fees and expenses of investing in the Portfolio will be higher because the example does not reflect Variable Contract fees and expenses.
Please refer to page 3 herein for a description of the Portfolio’s benchmark and an explanation of the information presented in the above Expense Example.
Portfolio Insights
» | | The PIMCO Low Duration Portfolio seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 65% of its total assets in a diversified portfolio of Fixed-Income Securities of varying maturities. |
» | | Duration and maturity structure were the most significant detractors from the Portfolio’s performance during the six-month period ended June 30, 2006. |
» | | The Portfolio’s above index duration detracted from returns as concerns about accelerating inflation and more monetary tightening pushed interest rates higher. |
» | | The Portfolio’s broader-than-index maturity structure with a curve steepening bias detracted from returns as the yield curve continued to flatten. |
» | | A mortgage emphasis added to returns as this sector outperformed Treasuries on a like-duration basis. Security selection within the mortgage sector also enhanced performance. |
» | | Investment grade and high-yield corporate bonds were positive as these issues benefited from a strengthening economy and investors’ search for extra yield. |
» | | Minimal exposure to high-quality emerging markets was slightly positive for performance as emerging markets bonds benefited from continued improvement in credit fundamentals and investors’ demand for higher-yielding securities early in the period. |

Notes to Financial Statements
1. ORGANIZATION
The Low Duration Portfolio (the “Portfolio”) is a series of the PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust (the “Trust”). The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “Act”), as amended, as an open-end investment management company organized as a Delaware business trust on October 3, 1997. The Portfolio offers three classes of shares: Institutional, Administrative and Advisor. Information presented in these financial statements pertains to the Institutional Class of the Portfolio. Certain detailed financial information for the Administrative Class and Advisor Class is provided separately and is available upon request. The Trust is designed to be used as an investment vehicle by Separate Accounts of insurance companies that fund variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies and by qualified pension and retirement plans.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Portfolio in the preparation of its financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Security Valuation. Portfolio securities are valued as of the close of regular trading (normally 4:00 p.m., Eastern Time) on each day that the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) is open. Portfolio securities and other assets for which market quotes are readily available are stated at market value. Market value is generally determined on the basis of last reported sales prices, or if no sales are reported, based on quotes obtained from a quotation reporting system, established market makers, or pricing services. Fixed-income securities and non-exchange traded derivatives are normally valued on the basis of quotes obtained from brokers and dealers or pricing services. Prices obtained from independent pricing services use information provided by market makers or estimates of market values obtained from yield data relating to investments or securities with similar characteristics. Certain fixed-income securities purchased on a delayed-delivery basis are marked to market daily until settlement at the forward settlement date. Short-term investments having a maturity of 60 days or less are generally valued at amortized cost. Exchange traded options, futures and options on futures are valued at the settlement price determined by the relevant exchange.
Investments initially valued in currencies other than the U.S. dollar are converted to the U.S. dollar using exchange rates obtained from pricing services. As a result, the NAV of the Portfolio’s shares may be affected by changes in the value of currencies in relation to the U.S. dollar. The value of securities traded in markets outside the United States or denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar may be affected significantly on a day that the NYSE is closed and an investor is not able to purchase, redeem or exchange shares.
Securities and other assets for which market quotes are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction. The Board of Trustees has adopted methods for valuing securities and other assets in circumstances where market quotes are not readily available, and has delegated to Pacific Investment Management Company LLC (“PIMCO”) the responsibility for applying the valuation methods. In the event that market quotes are not readily available, and the security or asset cannot be valued pursuant to one of the valuation methods, the value of the security or asset will be determined in good faith by the Valuation Committee of the Board of Trustees, generally based upon recommendations provided by PIMCO.
Market quotes are considered not readily available in circumstances where there is an absence of current or reliable market-based data (e.g., trade information, bid/asked information, broker quotes), including where events occur after the close of the relevant market, but prior to the close of regular trading, that materially affect the values of the Portfolio’s securities or assets. In addition, market quotes are considered not readily available when, due to extraordinary circumstances, the exchanges or markets on which the securities trade do not open for trading for the entire day and no other market prices are available. The Board has delegated to PIMCO the responsibility for monitoring significant events that may materially affect the values of the Portfolio’s securities or assets and for determining whether the value of the applicable securities or assets should be re-evaluated in light of such significant events when the Portfolio uses fair value pricing to determine its NAV, securities will not be priced on the basis of quotations from the primary market in which they are traded, but rather may be priced by another method that the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction believe accurately reflects fair value. The Trust’s policy is intended to result in a calculation of the Portfolio’s NAV that fairly reflects security values as of the time of pricing. However, fair values determined by the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction may not accurately reflect the price that the Portfolio could obtain for a security if it were to dispose of that security as of the time of pricing. Because foreign securities can trade on non-business days, the NAV of the Portfolio may change on days when shareholders will not be able to purchase or redeem shares. The prices used by the Portfolio may differ from the value that would be realized if the securities were sold and the differences could be material to the financial statements.
Securities Transactions and Investment Income. Securities transactions are recorded as of the trade date. Securities purchased or sold on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis may be settled a month or more after the trade date. Realized gains and losses from securities sold are recorded on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Portfolio is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, adjusted for the accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis. Paydown gains and losses on mortgage-related or asset-backed securities are recorded as components of interest income in the Statement of Operations.
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends from net investment income, if any, are declared on each day the Portfolio is open for business and are distributed to shareholders monthly. Net realized capital gains earned by the Portfolio, if any, will be distributed no less frequently than once each year. Most shareholders choose to reinvest their dividends and capital gain distribution in additional shares of the Portfolio.
Income dividends and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP. Differences between tax regulations and GAAP may change the fiscal year when income and capital items are recognized for tax and GAAP purposes. Examples of events that give rise to timing differences include wash sales, straddles, net operating losses and capital loss carryforwards. Further, the character of investment income and capital gains may be different for certain transactions under the two methods of accounting. Examples of characterization differences include the treatment of mortgage paydowns, swaps, foreign currency transactions and contingent debt instruments. As a result, income dividends and capital gain distributions declared during a fiscal period may differ significantly from the net investment income and realized capital gain reported in the Portfolio’s annual financial statements presented under GAAP.
Distributions classified as a tax basis return of capital, if any, are reflected in the accompanying Statements of Changes in Net Assets and have been reclassified to
| | | | |

paid in capital. In addition, other amounts have been reclassified between undistributed net investment income, accumulated undistributed net realized gains or losses and/or paid in capital to more appropriately conform financial accounting to tax characterizations of dividend distributions.
Multiclass Operations. Each class offered by the Portfolio has equal rights as to assets and voting privileges (except that shareholders of a class have exclusive voting rights regarding any matter relating solely to that class of shares). Income and non-class specific expenses of the Portfolio are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative value of settled shares. Realized and unrealized capital gains and losses of the Portfolio are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative net assets of each class. Class specific expenses, where applicable, currently include administrative, distribution and servicing fees.
Federal Income Taxes. The Portfolio intends to qualify as a regulated investment company under sub-chapter M of the Internal Revenue Code and distribute all of its taxable income and net realized gains, if applicable, to shareholders. Accordingly, no provision for Federal income taxes has been made.
Foreign Currency. The accounting records of the Portfolio are maintained in U.S. dollar. The market values of foreign securities, currency holdings and other assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollar based on the current exchange rates each business day. Fluctuations in the value of currency holdings and other assets and liabilities resulting from changes in exchange rates are recorded as unrealized foreign currency gains or losses. Realized gains or losses and unrealized appreciation or depreciation on investment securities and income and expenses are translated on the respective dates of such transactions. The effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on investments in securities are not segregated in the Statement of Operations from the effects of changes in market prices of those securities, but are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss on investment securities.

Forward Currency Transactions. The Portfolio may enter into forward currency contracts in connection with settling planned purchases or sales of securities, to hedge the currency exposure associated with some or all of the Portfolio’s securities or as a part of an investment strategy. A forward currency contract is an agreement between two parties to buy and sell a currency at a set price on a future date. The market value of a forward currency contract fluctuates with changes in forward currency exchange rates. Forward currency contracts are marked to market daily and the change in value is recorded by the Portfolio as an unrealized gain or loss. Realized gains or losses equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed are recorded upon delivery or receipt of the currency or, if a forward currency contract is offset by entering into another forward currency contract with the same broker, upon settlement of the net gain or loss. These contracts may involve market risk in excess of the unrealized gain or loss reflected in the Portfolio’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities. In addition, the Portfolio could be exposed to risk if the counterparties are unable to meet the terms of the contracts or if the value of the currency changes unfavorably to the U.S. dollar.
Futures Contracts. The Portfolio is authorized to enter into futures contracts. The Portfolio may use futures contracts to manage its exposure to the securities markets or to movements in interest rates and currency values. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are the imperfect correlation between the change in market value of the securities held by the Portfolio and the prices of futures contracts, the possibility of an illiquid market, and the inability of the counterparty to meet the terms of the contract. Futures contracts are valued based upon their quoted daily settlement prices. Upon entering into a futures contract, the Portfolio is required to deposit with its custodian, in a segregated account in the name of the futures broker, an amount of cash or U.S. Government and Agency Obligations in accordance with the initial margin requirements of the broker or exchange. Futures contracts are marked to market daily and an appropriate payable or receivable for the change in value (“variation margin”) is recorded by the Portfolio. Gains or losses are recognized but not considered realized until the contracts expire or are closed. Futures contracts involve, to varying degrees, risk of loss in excess of the variation margin disclosed in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
Options Contracts. The Portfolio may write call and put options on futures, swaps, securities or currencies it owns or in which it may invest. Writing put options tends to increase the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. Writing call options tends to decrease the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. When the Portfolio writes a call or put option, an amount equal to the premium received is recorded as a liability and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the option written. These liabilities are reflected as written options outstanding in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Certain options may be written with premiums to determined on a future date. The premiums for these options are based upon implied volatility parameters at specified terms. Premiums received from writing options which expire are treated as realized gains. Premiums received from writing options which are exercised or closed are added to the proceeds or offset against amounts paid on the underlying future, swap, security or currency transaction to determine the realized gain or loss. The Portfolio as a writer of an option has no control over whether the underlying future, swap, security or currency may be sold (call) or purchased (put) and as a result bears the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the future, swap, security or currency underlying the written option. There is the risk the Portfolio may not be able to enter into a closing transaction because of an illiquid market.
The Portfolio may also purchase put and call options. Purchasing call options tends to increase the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. Purchasing put options tends to decrease the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. The Portfolio pays a premium which is included in the Portfolio’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an investment and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the option. Premiums paid for purchasing options which expire are treated as realized losses. Certain options may be purchased with premiums to be determined on a future date. The premiums for these options are based upon implied volatility parameters at specified terms. The risk associated with purchasing put and call options is limited to the premium paid. Premiums paid for purchasing options which are exercised or closed are added to the amounts paid or offset against the proceeds on the underlying future, swap, security or currency transaction to determine the realized gain or loss.
Repurchase Agreements. The Portfolio may engage in repurchase transactions. Under the terms of a typical repurchase agreement, the Portfolio takes possession of an underlying debt obligation subject to an obligation of the seller to repurchase, and the Portfolio to resell, the obligation at an agreed-upon price and
| | | | | | |
| | Semiannual Report | | June 30, 2006 | | 15 |
Notes to Financial Statements (Cont.)
time. The market value of the collateral must be equal to or exceed at all times the total amount of the repurchase obligations, including interest. Securities purchased under repurchase agreements are reflected as an asset in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Generally, in the event of counterparty default, the Portfolio has the right to use the collateral to offset losses incurred. If the counterparty should default, the Portfolio will seek to sell the securities which it holds as collateral. This could involve procedural costs or delays in addition to a loss on the securities if their value should fall below their repurchase price.
Mortgage-Related and Other Asset-Backed Securities. The Portfolio may invest in mortgage-related or other asset-backed securities. These securities include mortgage pass-through securities, collateralized mortgage obligations (“CMOs”), commercial mortgage-backed securities, mortgage dollar rolls, CMO residuals, stripped mortgage-backed securities (“SMBSs”) and other securities that directly or indirectly represent a participation in, or are secured by and payable from, mortgage loans on real property. The value of some mortgage- or asset-backed securities may be particularly sensitive to changes in prevailing interest rates. Early repayment of principal on some mortgage-related securities may expose a Portfolio to a lower rate of return upon reinvestment of principal. The value of these securities may fluctuate in response to the market’s perception of the creditworthiness of the issuers. Additionally, although mortgages and mortgage-related securities are generally supported by some form of government or private guarantee and/or insurance, there is no assurance that private guarantors or insurers will meet their obligations.
Swap Agreements. The Portfolio may engage in swap transactions, including, but not limited to, swap agreements on interest rate and credit default to manage its exposure to interest rates and credit risk. In connection with these agreements, securities may be identified as collateral in accordance with the terms of the respective swap agreements.
Interest rate swap agreements involve the exchange by the Portfolio with another party of their respective commitments to pay or receive interest, e.g., an exchange of floating rate payments for fixed rate payments with respect to the notional amount of principal.
Credit default swap agreements involve one party making a stream of payments to another party in exchange for the right to receive a specified return in the event of a default by a third party, typically corporate issues or sovereign issues of an emerging country, on its obligation. The Portfolio may use credit default swaps to provide a measure of protection against defaults of the issuers (i.e., to reduce risk where the Portfolio owns or has exposure to the sovereign issuer) or to take an active long or short position with respect to the likelihood of a particular issuer’s default. As a seller of protection, the Portfolio generally receives an upfront payment or a fixed rate of income throughout the term of the swap provided that there is no credit event. If the Portfolio is a seller of protection and a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement, the Portfolio will pay to the buyer of the protection an amount up to the notional value of the swap and in certain instances take delivery of the security. As the seller, the Portfolio would effectively add leverage to its portfolio because, in addition to its total net assets, the Portfolio would be subject to investment exposure on the notional amount of the swap. As a buyer of protection, the Portfolio generally receives an amount up to the notional value of the swap if a credit event occurs. The treatment of credit default swaps and other swap agreements that provide for contingent, non-periodic, bullet-type payments as “notional principal contracts” for federal income tax purposes is uncertain. Were the Internal Revenue Service to take the position that a credit default swap or other bullet-type swap is not a “notional principal contract” for federal income tax purposes, payments received by the Portfolio from such investments might be subject to income taxes.
Swaps are marked to market daily based upon quotations from market makers and the change in value, if any, is recorded as unrealized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Payments received or made at the beginning of the measurement period are reflected as such in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. These upfront payments are recorded as realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations upon termination or maturity of the swap. A liquidation payment received or made at the termination of the swap is recorded as realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Net periodic payments received or paid by the Portfolio are included as part of realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Entering into these agreements involves, to varying degrees, elements of credit, market and documentation risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Such risks involve the possibility that there will be no liquid market for these agreements, that the counterparty to the agreements may default on its obligation to perform or disagree as to the meaning of contractual terms in the agreements and that there may be unfavorable changes in interest rates.
U.S. Government Agencies or Government-Sponsored Enterprises. Securities issued by U.S. Government agencies or government-sponsored enterprises may not be guaranteed by the U.S. Treasury. The Government National Mortgage Association (“GNMA”), a wholly owned U.S. Government corporation, is authorized to guarantee, with the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government, the timely payment of principal and interest on securities issued by institutions approved by GNMA and backed by pools of mortgages insured by the Federal Housing Administration or guaranteed by the Department of Veterans Affairs. Government-related guarantors (i.e., not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government) include the Federal National Mortgage Association (“FNMA” or “Fannie Mae”) and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“FHLMC” or “Freddie Mac”). Pass-through securities issued by FNMA are guaranteed as to timely payment of principal and interest by FNMA but are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government. FHLMC guarantees the timely payment of interest and ultimate collection of principal, but its participation certificates are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government.
Guarantees and Indemnifications. Under the Trust’s organizational documents, each Trustee, officer, employee or other agent of the Trust (including the Trust’s investment manager) is indemnified against certain liabilities that may arise out of performance of their duties to the Portfolio. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Portfolio enters into contracts that contain a variety of indemnification clauses. The Portfolio’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Portfolio that have not yet occurred. However, the Portfolio has not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts, and believes the risk of loss to be remote.
New Accounting Policies. In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes—an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (the “Interpretation”). The Interpretation is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. Management is currently evaluating the application of the Interpretation to the Portfolio and will provide additional information in relation to the Interpretation in the Portfolio’s annual financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2006.
3. FEES, EXPENSES, AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Investment Advisory Fee. PIMCO is a majority-owned subsidiary of Allianz Global Investors of America L.P. (“AGI”), and serves as investment adviser (the “Adviser”) to the Trust, pursuant to an investment advisory contract. The Adviser receives a monthly fee at an annual rate based on average daily net assets of the Portfolio. The Advisory Fee is charged at an annual rate of 0.25%.

| | June 30, 2006 (Unaudited) |
Administration Fee. PIMCO serves as administrator (the “Administrator”), and provides administrative services to the Trust for which it receives a monthly administrative fee based on average daily net assets of the Portfolio. As the Administrator, PIMCO bears the costs of various third-party services, including audit, custodial, portfolio accounting, legal, transfer agency and printing costs. The Administration Fee is charged at the annual rate of 0.25%.
Distribution and Servicing Fees. Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC (“AGID”) is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of AGI and serves as the distributor of the Trust’s shares. The Trust is permitted to reimburse AGID on a quarterly basis, out of the Administrative Class assets of the Portfolio in the amount of 0.15% on an annual basis of the average daily net assets of that class, for payments made to financial intermediaries that provide services in connection with the distribution of shares or administration of plans or programs that use Portfolio shares as their funding medium. The effective rate paid to AGID was 0.15% during the current fiscal year.
Expenses. The Trust is responsible for the following expenses: (i) salaries and other compensation of any of the Trust’s executive officers and employees who are not officers, directors, stockholders or employees of PIMCO or its subsidiaries or affiliates; (ii) taxes and governmental fees; (iii) brokerage fees and commissions and other portfolio transaction expenses; (iv) the costs of borrowing money, including interest expenses and bank overdraft charges; (v) fees and expenses of the Trustees who are not “interested persons” of PIMCO or the Trust, and any counsel retained exclusively for their benefit; (vi) extraordinary expenses, including costs of litigation and indemnification expenses; (vii) organization expenses and (viii) any expenses allocated or allocable to a specific class of shares, which include service fees payable with respect to the Administrative Class shares and may include certain other expenses as permitted by the Trust’s Multiple Class Plan adopted pursuant to Rule 18f-3 under the Act and subject to review and approval by the Trustees. The ratio of expenses to average net assets per share class, as disclosed in the Financial Highlights, may differ from the annual portfolio operating expenses per share class as disclosed in the Prospectus for the reasons set forth above.
For the current period ended June 30, 2006, each unaffiliated Trustee received an annual retainer of $15,000, plus $2,000 for each Board of Trustees quarterly meeting attended, $500 for each Board of Trustees committee meeting attended and $500 for each special board meeting attended, plus reimbursement of related expenses. In addition, each Committee Chair received an additional annual retainer of $500 and each Audit Committee Chair received an additional annual retainer of $1,500. These expenses are allocated on a pro-rata basis to each Portfolio of the Trust according to its respective net assets. The Trust pays no compensation directly to any Trustee or any other officer who is affiliated with the Administrator, all of whom receive remuneration for their services to the Trust from the Administrator or its affiliates.
4. PURCHASES AND SALES OF SECURITIES
The length of time the Portfolio has held a particular security is not generally a consideration in investment decisions. A change in the securities held by the Portfolio is known as “portfolio turnover”. The Portfolio may engage in frequent and active trading of portfolio securities to achieve its investment objective, particularly during periods of volatile market movements. High portfolio turnover (e.g., over 100%) involves correspondingly greater expenses to the Portfolio, including brokerage commissions or dealer mark-ups and other transaction costs on the sale of securities and reinvestments in other securities. Such sales may also result in realization of taxable capital gains, including short-term capital gains (which are generally taxed at ordinary income tax rates). The trading costs and tax effects associated with portfolio turnover may adversely affect the Portfolio’s performance.
Purchases and sales of securities (excluding short-term investments) for the period ended June 30, 2006 were as follows (amounts in thousands):

7. FEDERAL INCOME TAX MATTERS
As of June 30, 2006, the aggregate cost of investments was the same for federal income tax and financial statement purposes. The net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of investment securities for federal income tax purposes is as follows (amounts in thousands):
| | | | |
Aggregate Gross Unrealized Appreciation | | Aggregate Gross Unrealized (Depreciation) | | Net Unrealized Appreciation |
$ 4,322 | | $ (3,943) | | $ 379 |
8. REGULATORY AND LITIGATION MATTERS
On June 1, 2004, the Attorney General of the State of New Jersey announced that it had dismissed PIMCO from a complaint filed by the New Jersey Attorney General on February 17, 2004, and that it had entered into a settlement agreement (the “New Jersey Settlement”) with Allianz Global Investors of America L.P. (“AGI”) (formerly known as Allianz Dresdner Asset Management of America L.P.), PEA Capital LLC (an entity affiliated with PIMCO through common ownership) (“PEA”) and Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC (“AGID”), in connection with the same matter. In the New Jersey Settlement, AGI, PEA and AGID neither admitted nor denied the allegations or conclusions of law, but did agree to pay New Jersey a civil fine of $15 million and $3 million for investigative costs and further potential enforcement initiatives against unrelated parties. They also undertook to implement certain governance changes. The complaint relating to the New Jersey Settlement alleged, among other things, that AGI, PEA and AGID had failed to disclose that they improperly allowed certain hedge funds to engage in “market timing” in certain funds. The complaint sought injunctive relief, civil monetary penalties, restitution and disgorgement of profits.
Since February 2004, PIMCO, AGI, PEA, AGID, and certain of their affiliates, including the PIMCO Funds, the Allianz Funds (formerly known as PIMCO Funds: Multi-Manager Series), and the Trustees and employees of the PIMCO Funds, have been named as defendants in fifteen lawsuits filed in various jurisdictions. Eleven of those lawsuits concern “market timing,” and they have been transferred to and consolidated for pre-trial proceedings in a multi-district litigation proceeding in the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland; the other four lawsuits concern “revenue sharing” and have been consolidated into a single action in the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut. The lawsuits have been commenced as putative class actions on behalf of investors who purchased, held or redeemed shares of the various series of the PIMCO Funds and the Allianz Funds during specified periods, or as derivative actions on behalf of the PIMCO Funds and Allianz Funds.
The market timing actions in the District of Maryland generally allege that certain hedge funds were allowed to engage in “market timing” in certain of the PIMCO Funds and the Allianz Funds and this alleged activity was not disclosed. Pursuant to tolling agreements entered into with the derivative and class action plaintiffs, PIMCO, the Trustees, and certain employees of PIMCO who were previously named as defendants have all been dropped as defendants in the market timing actions; the plaintiffs continue to assert claims on behalf of the shareholders of the PIMCO Funds or on behalf of the PIMCO Funds themselves against other defendants. By order dated November 3, 2005, the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland granted the PIMCO Funds’ motion to dismiss claims asserted against it in a consolidated amended complaint where the PIMCO Funds were named, in the complaint, as a nominal defendant. The revenue sharing action in the District of Connecticut generally alleges that fund assets were inappropriately used to pay brokers to promote the PIMCO Funds and Allianz Funds, including directing fund brokerage transactions to such brokers, and that such alleged arrangements were not fully disclosed to shareholders. On August 11, 2005 the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut conducted a hearing on defendants’ motion to dismiss the consolidated amended complaint in the revenue sharing action but has not yet ruled on the motion to dismiss. The market timing and revenue sharing lawsuits seek, among other things, unspecified compensatory damages plus interest and, in some cases, punitive damages, the rescission of investment advisory contracts, the return of fees paid under those contracts and restitution.
Under Section 9(a) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“1940 Act”), if the New Jersey Settlement or any of the lawsuits described above were to result in a court injunction against AGI, PEA, AGID and/or their affiliates, PIMCO could, in the absence of exemptive relief granted by the SEC, be barred from serving as an investment adviser, and AGID could be barred from serving as principal underwriter, to any registered investment company, including the Portfolios of the Trust. In connection with an inquiry from the SEC concerning the status of the New Jersey Settlement under Section 9(a), PEA, AGID, AGI and certain of their affiliates (including PIMCO) (together, the “Applicants”) have sought exemptive relief from the SEC under Section 9(c) of the 1940 Act. The SEC has granted the Applicants a temporary exemption from the provisions of Section 9(a) with respect to the New Jersey Settlement until the earlier of (i) September 13, 2006 and (ii) the date on which the SEC takes final action on their application for a permanent order. There is no assurance that the SEC will issue a permanent order.
Two nearly identical class action civil complaints have been filed in August 2005, in the Northern District of Illinois Eastern Division alleging that the plaintiffs each purchased and sold a 10-year Treasury note futures contract and suffered damages from an alleged shortage when PIMCO held both physical and futures positions in 10-year Treasury notes for its client accounts. The two actions have been consolidated into one action, and the two separate complaints have been replaced by a consolidated complaint. PIMCO is a named defendant, and the PIMCO Funds have been added as a defendant, to the consolidated action. PIMCO strongly believes the complaint (and any consolidated complaint filed hereafter) is without merit and intends to vigorously defend itself.
Certain Portfolios of the Trust were recently served in an adversary proceeding brought by the Official Committee of Asbestos Claimants of G-I Holdings, Inc. in G-I Holdings, Inc.’s bankruptcy in the District of New Jersey. PIMCO was previously named in this lawsuit and remains a defendant. The plaintiff seeks to recover for the bankruptcy estate assets that were transferred by the predecessor entity of G-I Holdings, Inc. to a wholly-owned subsidiary in 1994. The subsidiary has since issued notes, of which certain Portfolios of the Trust are alleged to be holders. The complaint alleges that in 2000, more than two hundred noteholders—including certain Portfolios of the Trust—were granted a second priority lien on the assets of the subsidiary in exchange for their consent to a refinancing transaction and the granting of a first priority lien to the lending banks. The plaintiff is seeking invalidation of the lien in favor of the noteholders and/or the value of the lien.
It is possible that these matters and/or other developments resulting from these matters could result in increased fund redemptions or other adverse consequences to the Portfolios. However, PIMCO and AGID believe that these matters are not likely to have a material adverse effect on the Portfolios or on PIMCO’s or AGID’s ability to perform their respective investment advisory or distribution services relating to the Portfolios.

Chairman’s Letter
Dear PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust Shareholder:
It is our pleasure to present to you the semiannual report for the PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust covering the six-month period ended June 30, 2006.
Highlights of the global bond markets during the six-month period included:
| n | | Most fixed-income sectors lost ground during the first half of 2006, as concern about accelerating inflation and central bank tightening pushed interest rates higher worldwide. The benchmark Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index (which includes Treasury, Investment-Grade Corporate, and Residential Mortgage-Backed Securities) returned -0.72% for the first six months of the year. On June 30, the benchmark ten-year Treasury yielded 5.14%, 0.75% higher than at the start of the year. The U.S. yield curve remained flat as shorter-maturity yields rose by a comparable amount. |
| n | | The Federal Reserve tightened four times during the reporting period, bringing the Federal Funds Rate to 5.25%. The increase near the end of the period was the Federal Reserve’s 17th consecutive rate hike since the start of its tightening cycle in 2004. The Federal Reserve was not alone, as central banks in Europe, India, and China tightened credit in unison for the first time since 2000. The Bank of Japan, whose zero-interest-rate policy has flooded global markets with liquidity, looked set to reverse this policy in the coming months. |
In these pages please find a more complete Portfolio review as it relates to financial-market activities, as well as details about total-return investment performance for the six-month reporting period. Thank you for the trust you have placed in us. We will continue to work diligently to meet your investment needs.
Sincerely,

Brent R. Harris
Chairman, PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust

Important Information About the Portfolio
PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust (the “Trust”) is an open-end management investment company currently consisting of nineteen separate investment portfolios, including the Money Market Portfolio (the “Portfolio”). The Portfolio is only available as a funding vehicle under variable life insurance policies or variable annuity contracts issued by insurance companies (“Variable Contracts”). Individuals may not purchase shares of the Portfolio directly. Shares of the Portfolio also may be sold to qualified pension and retirement plans outside of the separate account context.
We believe that bond funds have an important role to play in a well diversified investment portfolio. It is important to note, however, that in an environment where interest rates may trend upward, rising rates would negatively impact the performance of most bond funds, and fixed-income securities held by a fund are likely to decrease in value. The price volatility of fixed-income securities can also increase during periods of rising interest rates resulting in increased losses to a fund. Bond funds and individual bonds with a longer duration (a measure of the expected life of a security) tend to be more sensitive to changes in interest rates, usually making them more volatile than securities or funds with shorter durations. The longer-term performance of most bond funds has benefited from capital gains in part resulting from an extended period of declining interest rates. In the event interest rates increase, these capital gains should not be expected to recur.
The Portfolio may be subject to various risks in addition to those described above. Some of these risks may include, but are not limited to, the following: credit risk, market risk, issuer risk, non-U.S. investment risk and management risk. A complete description of these risks is contained in the Portfolio’s prospectus. Investing in non-U.S. securities may entail risk due to non-U.S. economic and political developments.
On the performance summary page in this Semiannual Report, the Total Return Investment Performance table measures performance assuming that all dividend and capital gain distributions were reinvested.
An investment in the Portfolio is not a deposit of a bank and is not guaranteed or insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. It is possible to lose money on investments in the Portfolio.
PIMCO has adopted written proxy voting policies and procedures (“Proxy Policy”) as required by Rule 206(4)-6 under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940. The Proxy Policy has been adopted by the Trust as the policies and procedures that PIMCO will use when voting proxies on behalf of the Portfolio. Copies of the written Proxy Policy and the factors that PIMCO may consider in determining how to vote proxies for the Portfolio, and information about how the Portfolio voted proxies relating to portfolio securities held during the most recent twelve-month period ended June 30, are available without charge, upon request, by calling the Trust at 1-866-746-2606 and on the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) website at http://www.sec.gov.
The Portfolio files its complete schedule of portfolio holdings with the SEC for the first and third quarters of each fiscal year on Form N-Q. A copy of the Trust’s Form N-Q is available on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov and may be reviewed and copied at the SEC’s Public Reference Room in Washington D.C. Information on the operation of the Public Reference Room may be obtained by calling 1-800-SEC-0330.

The following disclosure provides important information regarding the Portfolio’s Expense Example (“Example” or “Expense Example”), which appears in this Semiannual Report. Please refer to this information when reviewing the Expense Example for the Portfolio.
Example
As a shareholder of the Portfolio, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs and (2) ongoing costs, including advisory and administrative fees; distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees (Administrative Class only); and other Portfolio expenses. The Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Portfolio and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Expense Example does not reflect any fees or other expenses imposed by the Variable Contracts. If it did, the expenses reflected in the Expense Examples would be higher. The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period indicated, which is from January 1, 2006 to June 30, 2006.
Actual Expenses
The information in the table under the heading “Actual Performance” provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in these columns, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.60), then multiply the result by the number in the appropriate column for your share class, in the row titled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The information in the table under the heading “Hypothetical Performance (5% return before expenses)” provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Portfolio’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Portfolio’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Portfolio and other portfolios. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other portfolios.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs. Therefore, the information under the heading “Hypothetical Performance (5% return before expenses)” is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different portfolios. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.
The expense ratio may vary period to period because of various factors, such as an increase in expenses not covered by the advisory and administrative fees (such as expenses of the trustees and their counsel or litigation expense).
Portfolio Benchmark
Citigroup 3-Month Treasury Bill Index is an unmanaged index representing monthly return equivalents of yield averages of the last 3-Month Treasury Bill issues. It is not possible to invest directly in the index.

Past performance is no guarantee of future results. The performance quoted represents past performance. Money market funds are not insured or guaranteed by the FDIC or any other government agency, and although these funds seek to preserve the value of your investment at $1.00 per share, it is possible to lose money by investing in money market funds. The Portfolio’s performance does not reflect the deduction of additional charges and expenses imposed in connection with investing in Variable Contracts, which will reduce returns. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. Performance data current to the most recent month-end is available by calling (800) 927-4648.

Overall fees and expenses of investing in the Portfolio will be higher because the example does not reflect Variable Contract fees and expenses.

Portfolio Insights
» | | The PIMCO Money Market Portfolio seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing at least 95% of its total assets in a diversified portfolio of money market securities that are in the highest rating category for short-term obligations. |
» | | The Portfolio emphasizes high-quality commercial paper, shorter-term agency and high-quality corporate debt issues due to strong liquidity, attractive yields and limited credit risks. |
» | | High quality (A1/P1) commercial paper yields rose approximately 1.00% for three-month maturities, reflecting similar Federal Reserve rate increases. |
» | | U.S. and non-U.S. issued high-quality (A1/P1) commercial paper was emphasized due to attractive yields, modest interest rate sensitivity and limited credit risk. |
» | | Higher-quality (A1/P1) three-month commercial paper yield spreads relative to Treasuries slightly widened by about 0.06% to approximately 0.46%, which provided additional income. |

Notes to Financial Statements
1. ORGANIZATION
The Money Market Portfolio (the “Portfolio”) is a series of the PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust (the “Trust”). The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “Act”), as amended, as an open-end investment management company organized as a Delaware business trust on October 3, 1997. The Portfolio offers two classes of shares: Institutional and Administrative. Information presented in these financial statements pertains to the Administrative Class of the Portfolio. Certain detailed financial information for the Institutional Class is provided separately and is available upon request. The Trust is designed to be used as an investment vehicle by Separate Accounts of insurance companies that fund variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies and by qualified pension and retirement plans.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Portfolio in the preparation of its financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Security Valuation. Portfolio securities held by the Portfolio are valued at amortized cost, which approximates current market value.
Securities Transactions and Investment Income. Securities transactions are recorded as of the trade date. Securities purchased or sold on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis may be settled a month or more after the trade date. Realized gains and losses from securities sold are recorded on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Portfolio is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, adjusted for the accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis. Paydown gains and losses on mortgage-related or asset-backed securities are recorded as components of interest income in the Statement of Operations.
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends from net investment income, if any, are declared on each day the Portfolio is open for business and are distributed to shareholders monthly. Net realized capital gains earned by the Portfolio, if any, will be distributed no less frequently than once each year. Most shareholders choose to reinvest their dividends and capital gain distribution in additional shares of the Portfolio.
Income dividends and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP. Differences between tax regulations and GAAP may change the fiscal year when income and capital items are recognized for tax and GAAP purposes. Examples of events that give rise to timing differences include wash sales, straddles, net operating losses and capital loss carryforwards. Further, the character of investment income and capital gains may be different for certain transactions under the two methods of accounting. Examples of characterization differences include the treatment of mortgage paydowns, swaps, foreign currency transactions and contingent debt instruments. As a result, income dividends and capital gain distributions declared during a fiscal period may differ significantly from the net investment income and realized capital gain reported in the Portfolio’s annual financial statements presented under GAAP.
Distributions classified as a tax basis return of capital, if any, are reflected in the accompanying Statements of Changes in Net Assets and have been reclassified to paid in capital. In addition, other amounts have been reclassified between undistributed net investment income, accumulated undistributed net realized gains or losses and/or paid in capital to more appropriately conform financial accounting to tax characterizations of dividend distributions.
Multiclass Operations. Each class offered by the Portfolio has equal rights as to assets and voting privileges (except that shareholders of a class have exclusive voting rights regarding any matter relating solely to that class of shares). Income and non-class specific expenses of the Portfolio are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative value of settled shares. Realized and unrealized capital gains and losses of the Portfolio are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative net assets of each class. Class specific expenses, where applicable, currently include administrative, distribution and servicing fees.
Federal Income Taxes. The Portfolio intends to qualify as a regulated investment company under sub-chapter M of the Internal Revenue Code and distribute all of its taxable income and net realized gains, if applicable, to shareholders. Accordingly, no provision for Federal income taxes has been made.
Repurchase Agreements. The Portfolio may engage in repurchase transactions. Under the terms of a typical repurchase agreement, the Portfolio takes possession of an underlying debt obligation subject to an obligation of the seller to repurchase, and the Portfolio to resell, the obligation at an agreed-upon price and time. The market value of the collateral must be equal to or exceed at all times the total amount of the repurchase obligations, including interest. Securities purchased under repurchase agreements are reflected as an asset in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Generally, in the event of counterparty default, the Portfolio has the right to use the collateral to offset losses incurred. If the counterparty should default, the Portfolio will seek to sell the securities which it holds as collateral. This could involve procedural costs or delays in addition to a loss on the securities if their value should fall below their repurchase price.
U.S. Government Agencies or Government-Sponsored Enterprises. Securities issued by U.S. Government agencies or government-sponsored enterprises may not be guaranteed by the U.S. Treasury. The Government National Mortgage Association (“GNMA”), a wholly owned U.S. Government corporation, is authorized to guarantee, with the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government, the timely payment of principal and interest on securities issued by institutions approved by GNMA and backed by pools of mortgages insured by the Federal Housing Administration or guaranteed by the Department of Veterans Affairs. Government-related guarantors (i.e., not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government) include the Federal National Mortgage Association (“FNMA” or “Fannie Mae”) and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“FHLMC” or “Freddie Mac”). Pass-through securities issued by FNMA are guaranteed as to timely payment of principal and interest by FNMA but are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government. FHLMC guarantees the timely payment of interest and ultimate collection of principal, but its participation certificates are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government.
Guarantees and Indemnifications. Under the Trust’s organizational documents, each Trustee, officer, employee or other agent of the Trust (including the Trust’s investment manager) is indemnified against certain liabilities that may arise out of performance of their duties to the Portfolio. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Portfolio enters into contracts that contain a variety of indemnification clauses. The Portfolio’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Portfolio that have not yet occurred. However, the Portfolio has not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts, and believes the risk of loss to be remote.

New Accounting Policies. In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes—an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (the “Interpretation”). The Interpretation is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. Management is currently evaluating the application of the Interpretation to the Portfolio and will provide additional information in relation to the Interpretation in the Portfolio’s annual financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2006.
3. FEES, EXPENSES, AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Investment Advisory Fee. PIMCO is a majority-owned subsidiary of Allianz Global Investors of America L.P. (“AGI”), and serves as investment adviser (the “Adviser”) to the Trust, pursuant to an investment advisory contract. The Adviser receives a monthly fee at an annual rate based on average daily net assets of the Portfolio. The Advisory Fee is charged at an annual rate of 0.15%.
Administration Fee. PIMCO serves as administrator (the “Administrator”), and provides administrative services to the Trust for which it receives a monthly administrative fee based on average daily net assets of the Portfolio. As the Administrator, PIMCO bears the costs of various third-party services, including audit, custodial, portfolio accounting, legal, transfer agency and printing costs. The Administration Fee is charged at the annual rate of 0.20%.
Distribution and Servicing Fees. Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC (“AGID”) is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of AGI and serves as the distributor of the Trust’s shares. The Trust is permitted to reimburse AGID on a quarterly basis, out of the Administrative Class assets of the Portfolio in the amount of 0.15% on an annual basis of the average daily net assets of that class, for payments made to financial intermediaries that provide services in connection with the distribution of shares or administration of plans or programs that use Portfolio shares as their funding medium. The effective rate paid to AGID was 0.15% during the current fiscal year.
Expenses. The Trust is responsible for the following expenses: (i) salaries and other compensation of any of the Trust’s executive officers and employees who are not officers, directors, stockholders or employees of PIMCO or its subsidiaries or affiliates; (ii) taxes and governmental fees; (iii) brokerage fees and commissions and other portfolio transaction expenses; (iv) the costs of borrowing money, including interest expenses and bank overdraft charges; (v) fees and expenses of the Trustees who are not “interested persons” of PIMCO or the Trust, and any counsel retained exclusively for their benefit; (vi) extraordinary expenses, including costs of litigation and indemnification expenses; (vii) organization expenses and (viii) any expenses allocated or allocable to a specific class of shares, which include service fees payable with respect to the Administrative Class shares and may include certain other expenses as permitted by the Trust’s Multiple Class Plan adopted pursuant to Rule 18f-3 under the Act and subject to review and approval by the Trustees. The ratio of expenses to average net assets per share class, as disclosed in the Financial Highlights, may differ from the annual portfolio operating expenses per share class as disclosed in the Prospectus for the reasons set forth above.
For the current period ended June 30, 2006, each unaffiliated Trustee received an annual retainer of $15,000, plus $2,000 for each Board of Trustees quarterly meeting attended, $500 for each Board of Trustees committee meeting attended and $500 for each special board meeting attended, plus reimbursement of related expenses. In addition, each Committee Chair received an additional annual retainer of $500 and each Audit Committee Chair received an additional annual retainer of $1,500. These expenses are allocated on a pro-rata basis to each Portfolio of the Trust according to its respective net assets. The Trust pays no compensation directly to any Trustee or any other officer who is affiliated with the Administrator, all of whom receive remuneration for their services to the Trust from the Administrator or its affiliates.

On June 1, 2004, the Attorney General of the State of New Jersey announced that it had dismissed PIMCO from a complaint filed by the New Jersey Attorney General on February 17, 2004, and that it had entered into a settlement agreement (the “New Jersey Settlement”) with Allianz Global Investors of America L.P. (“AGI”) (formerly known as Allianz Dresdner Asset Management of America L.P.), PEA Capital LLC (an entity affiliated with PIMCO through common ownership) (“PEA”) and Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC (“AGID”), in connection with the same matter. In the New Jersey Settlement, AGI, PEA and AGID neither admitted nor denied the allegations or conclusions of law, but did agree to pay New Jersey a civil fine of $15 million and $3 million for investigative costs and further potential enforcement initiatives against unrelated parties. They also undertook to implement certain governance changes. The complaint relating to the New Jersey Settlement alleged, among other things, that AGI, PEA and AGID had failed to disclose that they improperly allowed certain hedge funds to engage in “market timing” in certain funds. The complaint sought injunctive relief, civil monetary penalties, restitution and disgorgement of profits.
Since February 2004, PIMCO, AGI, PEA, AGID, and certain of their affiliates, including the PIMCO Funds, the Allianz Funds (formerly known as PIMCO Funds: Multi-Manager Series), and the Trustees and employees of the PIMCO Funds, have been named as defendants in fifteen lawsuits filed in various jurisdictions. Eleven of those lawsuits concern “market timing,” and they have been transferred to and consolidated for pre-trial proceedings in a multi-district litigation proceeding in the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland; the other four lawsuits concern “revenue sharing” and have been consolidated into a single action in the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut. The lawsuits have been commenced as putative class actions on behalf of investors who purchased, held or redeemed shares of the various series of the PIMCO Funds and the Allianz Funds during specified periods, or as derivative actions on behalf of the PIMCO Funds and Allianz Funds.
The market timing actions in the District of Maryland generally allege that certain hedge funds were allowed to engage in “market timing” in certain of the PIMCO Funds and the Allianz Funds and this alleged activity was not disclosed. Pursuant to tolling agreements entered into with the derivative and class action plaintiffs, PIMCO, the Trustees, and certain employees of PIMCO who were previously named as defendants have all been dropped as defendants in the market timing actions; the plaintiffs continue to assert claims on behalf of the shareholders of the PIMCO Funds or on behalf of the PIMCO Funds themselves against other defendants. By order dated November 3, 2005, the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland granted the PIMCO Funds’ motion to dismiss claims asserted against it in a consolidated amended complaint where the PIMCO Funds were named, in the complaint, as a nominal defendant. The revenue sharing action in the District of Connecticut generally alleges that fund assets were inappropriately used to pay brokers to promote the PIMCO Funds and Allianz Funds, including directing fund brokerage transactions to such brokers, and that such alleged arrangements were not fully disclosed to shareholders. On August 11, 2005 the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut conducted a hearing on defendants’ motion to dismiss the consolidated amended complaint in the revenue sharing action but has not yet ruled on the motion to dismiss. The market timing and revenue sharing lawsuits seek, among other things, unspecified compensatory damages plus interest and, in some cases, punitive damages, the rescission of investment advisory contracts, the return of fees paid under those contracts and restitution.
Under Section 9(a) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“1940 Act”), if the New Jersey Settlement or any of the lawsuits described above were to result in a court injunction against AGI, PEA, AGID and/or their affiliates, PIMCO could, in the absence of exemptive relief granted by the SEC, be barred from serving as an investment adviser, and AGID could be barred from serving as principal underwriter, to any registered investment company, including the Portfolios of the Trust. In connection with an inquiry from the SEC concerning the status of the New Jersey Settlement under Section 9(a), PEA, AGID, AGI and certain of their affiliates (including PIMCO) (together, the “Applicants”) have sought exemptive relief from the SEC under Section 9(c) of the 1940 Act. The SEC has granted the Applicants a temporary exemption from the provisions of Section 9(a) with respect to the New Jersey Settlement until the earlier of (i) September 13, 2006 and (ii) the date on which the SEC takes final action on their application for a permanent order. There is no assurance that the SEC will issue a permanent order.
Two nearly identical class action civil complaints have been filed in August 2005, in the Northern District of Illinois Eastern Division alleging that the plaintiffs each purchased and sold a 10-year Treasury note futures contract and suffered damages from an alleged shortage when PIMCO held both physical and futures positions in

| |
| | June 30, 2006 (Unaudited) |
10-year Treasury notes for its client accounts. The two actions have been consolidated into one action, and the two separate complaints have been replaced by a consolidated complaint. PIMCO is a named defendant, and the PIMCO Funds have been added as a defendant, to the consolidated action. PIMCO strongly believes the complaint (and any consolidated complaint filed hereafter) is without merit and intends to vigorously defend itself.
Certain Portfolios of the Trust were recently served in an adversary proceeding brought by the Official Committee of Asbestos Claimants of G-I Holdings, Inc. in G-I Holdings, Inc.’s bankruptcy in the District of New Jersey. PIMCO was previously named in this lawsuit and remains a defendant. The plaintiff seeks to recover for the bankruptcy estate assets that were transferred by the predecessor entity of G-I Holdings, Inc. to a wholly-owned subsidiary in 1994. The subsidiary has since issued notes, of which certain Portfolios of the Trust are alleged to be holders. The complaint alleges that in 2000, more than two hundred noteholders—including certain Portfolios of the Trust—were granted a second priority lien on the assets of the subsidiary in exchange for their consent to a refinancing transaction and the granting of a first priority lien to the lending banks. The plaintiff is seeking invalidation of the lien in favor of the noteholders and/or the value of the lien.
It is possible that these matters and/or other developments resulting from these matters could result in increased fund redemptions or other adverse consequences to the Portfolios. However, PIMCO and AGID believe that these matters are not likely to have a material adverse effect on the Portfolios or on PIMCO’s or AGID’s ability to perform their respective investment advisory or distribution services relating to the Portfolios.

Chairman’s Letter
Dear PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust Shareholder:
It is our pleasure to present to you the semiannual report for the PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust covering the six-month period ended June 30, 2006.
Highlights of the global bond markets during the six-month period included:
| n | | Most fixed-income sectors lost ground during the first half of 2006, as concern about accelerating inflation and central bank tightening pushed interest rates higher worldwide. The benchmark Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index (which includes Treasury, Investment-Grade Corporate, and Residential Mortgage-Backed Securities) returned -0.72% for the first six months of the year. On June 30, the benchmark ten-year Treasury yielded 5.14%, 0.75% higher than at the start of the year. The U.S. yield curve remained flat as shorter-maturity yields rose by a comparable amount. |
| n | | The Federal Reserve tightened four times during the reporting period, bringing the Federal Funds Rate to 5.25%. The increase near the end of the period was the Federal Reserve’s 17th consecutive rate hike since the start of its tightening cycle in 2004. The Federal Reserve was not alone, as central banks in Europe, India, and China tightened credit in unison for the first time since 2000. The Bank of Japan, whose zero-interest-rate policy has flooded global markets with liquidity, looked set to reverse this policy in the coming months. |
In these pages please find a more complete Portfolio review as it relates to financial-market activities, as well as details about total-return investment performance for the six-month reporting period. Thank you for the trust you have placed in us. We will continue to work diligently to meet your investment needs.
Sincerely,

Brent R. Harris
Chairman, PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust

Important Information About the Portfolio
PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust (the “Trust”) is an open-end management investment company currently consisting of nineteen separate investment portfolios, including the Money Market Portfolio (the “Portfolio”). The Portfolio is only available as a funding vehicle under variable life insurance policies or variable annuity contracts issued by insurance companies (“Variable Contracts”). Individuals may not purchase shares of the Portfolio directly. Shares of the Portfolio also may be sold to qualified pension and retirement plans outside of the separate account context.
We believe that bond funds have an important role to play in a well diversified investment portfolio. It is important to note, however, that in an environment where interest rates may trend upward, rising rates would negatively impact the performance of most bond funds, and fixed-income securities held by a fund are likely to decrease in value. The price volatility of fixed-income securities can also increase during periods of rising interest rates resulting in increased losses to a fund. Bond funds and individual bonds with a longer duration (a measure of the expected life of a security) tend to be more sensitive to changes in interest rates, usually making them more volatile than securities or funds with shorter durations. The longer-term performance of most bond funds has benefited from capital gains in part resulting from an extended period of declining interest rates. In the event interest rates increase, these capital gains should not be expected to recur.
The Portfolio may be subject to various risks in addition to those described above. Some of these risks may include, but are not limited to, the following: credit risk, market risk, issuer risk, non-U.S. investment risk and management risk. A complete description of these risks is contained in the Portfolio’s prospectus. Investing in non-U.S. securities may entail risk due to non-U.S. economic and political developments.
On the performance summary page in this Semiannual Report, the Total Return Investment Performance table measures performance assuming that all dividend and capital gain distributions were reinvested.
An investment in the Portfolio is not a deposit of a bank and is not guaranteed or insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. It is possible to lose money on investments in the Portfolio.
PIMCO has adopted written proxy voting policies and procedures (“Proxy Policy”) as required by Rule 206(4)-6 under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940. The Proxy Policy has been adopted by the Trust as the policies and procedures that PIMCO will use when voting proxies on behalf of the Portfolio. Copies of the written Proxy Policy and the factors that PIMCO may consider in determining how to vote proxies for the Portfolio, and information about how the Portfolio voted proxies relating to portfolio securities held during the most recent twelve-month period ended June 30, are available without charge, upon request, by calling the Trust at 1-866-746-2606 and on the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) website at http://www.sec.gov.
The Portfolio files its complete schedule of portfolio holdings with the SEC for the first and third quarters of each fiscal year on Form N-Q. A copy of the Trust’s Form N-Q is available on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov and may be reviewed and copied at the SEC’s Public Reference Room in Washington D.C. Information on the operation of the Public Reference Room may be obtained by calling 1-800-SEC-0330.

The following disclosure provides important information regarding the Portfolio’s Expense Example (“Example” or “Expense Example”), which appears in this Semiannual Report. Please refer to this information when reviewing the Expense Example for the Portfolio.
Example
As a shareholder of the Portfolio, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs and (2) ongoing costs, including advisory and administrative fees; distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees (Administrative Class only); and other Portfolio expenses. The Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Portfolio and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Expense Example does not reflect any fees or other expenses imposed by the Variable Contracts. If it did, the expenses reflected in the Expense Examples would be higher. The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period indicated, which is from January 1, 2006 to June 30, 2006.
Actual Expenses
The information in the table under the heading “Actual Performance” provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in these columns, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.60), then multiply the result by the number in the appropriate column for your share class, in the row titled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The information in the table under the heading “Hypothetical Performance (5% return before expenses)” provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Portfolio’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Portfolio’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Portfolio and other portfolios. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other portfolios.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs. Therefore, the information under the heading “Hypothetical Performance (5% return before expenses)” is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different portfolios. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.
The expense ratio may vary period to period because of various factors, such as an increase in expenses not covered by the advisory and administrative fees (such as expenses of the trustees and their counsel or litigation expense).
Portfolio Benchmark
Citigroup 3-Month Treasury Bill Index is an unmanaged index representing monthly return equivalents of yield averages of the last 3-Month Treasury Bill issues. It is not possible to invest directly in the index.

Past performance is no guarantee of future results. The performance quoted represents past performance. Money market funds are not insured or guaranteed by the FDIC or any other government agency, and although these funds seek to preserve the value of your investment at $1.00 per share, it is possible to lose money by investing in money market funds. The Portfolio’s performance does not reflect the deduction of additional charges and expenses imposed in connection with investing in Variable Contracts, which will reduce returns. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. Performance data current to the most recent month-end is available by calling (800) 927-4648.

Notes to Financial Statements
1. ORGANIZATION
The Money Market Portfolio (the “Portfolio”) is a series of the PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust (the “Trust”). The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “Act”), as amended, as an open-end investment management company organized as a Delaware business trust on October 3, 1997. The Portfolio offers two classes of shares: Institutional and Administrative. Information presented in these financial statements pertains to the Administrative Class of the Portfolio. Certain detailed financial information for the Institutional Class is provided separately and is available upon request. The Trust is designed to be used as an investment vehicle by Separate Accounts of insurance companies that fund variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies and by qualified pension and retirement plans.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Portfolio in the preparation of its financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Security Valuation. Portfolio securities held by the Portfolio are valued at amortized cost, which approximates current market value.
Securities Transactions and Investment Income. Securities transactions are recorded as of the trade date. Securities purchased or sold on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis may be settled a month or more after the trade date. Realized gains and losses from securities sold are recorded on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Portfolio is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, adjusted for the accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis. Paydown gains and losses on mortgage-related or asset-backed securities are recorded as components of interest income in the Statement of Operations.
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends from net investment income, if any, are declared on each day the Portfolio is open for business and are distributed to shareholders monthly. Net realized capital gains earned by the Portfolio, if any, will be distributed no less frequently than once each year. Most shareholders choose to reinvest their dividends and capital gain distribution in additional shares of the Portfolio.
Income dividends and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP. Differences between tax regulations and GAAP may change the fiscal year when income and capital items are recognized for tax and GAAP purposes. Examples of events that give rise to timing differences include wash sales, straddles, net operating losses and capital loss carryforwards. Further, the character of investment income and capital gains may be different for certain transactions under the two methods of accounting. Examples of characterization differences include the treatment of mortgage paydowns, swaps, foreign currency transactions and contingent debt instruments. As a result, income dividends and capital gain distributions declared during a fiscal period may differ significantly from the net investment income and realized capital gain reported in the Portfolio’s annual financial statements presented under GAAP.
Distributions classified as a tax basis return of capital, if any, are reflected in the accompanying Statements of Changes in Net Assets and have been reclassified to paid in capital. In addition, other amounts have been reclassified between undistributed net investment income, accumulated undistributed net realized gains or losses and/or paid in capital to more appropriately conform financial accounting to tax characterizations of dividend distributions.
Multiclass Operations. Each class offered by the Portfolio has equal rights as to assets and voting privileges (except that shareholders of a class have exclusive voting rights regarding any matter relating solely to that class of shares). Income and non-class specific expenses of the Portfolio are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative value of settled shares. Realized and unrealized capital gains and losses of the Portfolio are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative net assets of each class. Class specific expenses, where applicable, currently include administrative, distribution and servicing fees.
Federal Income Taxes. The Portfolio intends to qualify as a regulated investment company under sub-chapter M of the Internal Revenue Code and distribute all of its taxable income and net realized gains, if applicable, to shareholders. Accordingly, no provision for Federal income taxes has been made.
Repurchase Agreements. The Portfolio may engage in repurchase transactions. Under the terms of a typical repurchase agreement, the Portfolio takes possession of an underlying debt obligation subject to an obligation of the seller to repurchase, and the Portfolio to resell, the obligation at an agreed-upon price and time. The market value of the collateral must be equal to or exceed at all times the total amount of the repurchase obligations, including interest. Securities purchased under repurchase agreements are reflected as an asset in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Generally, in the event of counterparty default, the Portfolio has the right to use the collateral to offset losses incurred. If the counterparty should default, the Portfolio will seek to sell the securities which it holds as collateral. This could involve procedural costs or delays in addition to a loss on the securities if their value should fall below their repurchase price.
U.S. Government Agencies or Government-Sponsored Enterprises. Securities issued by U.S. Government agencies or government-sponsored enterprises may not be guaranteed by the U.S. Treasury. The Government National Mortgage Association (“GNMA”), a wholly owned U.S. Government corporation, is authorized to guarantee, with the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government, the timely payment of principal and interest on securities issued by institutions approved by GNMA and backed by pools of mortgages insured by the Federal Housing Administration or guaranteed by the Department of Veterans Affairs. Government-related guarantors (i.e., not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government) include the Federal National Mortgage Association (“FNMA” or “Fannie Mae”) and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“FHLMC” or “Freddie Mac”). Pass-through securities issued by FNMA are guaranteed as to timely payment of principal and interest by FNMA but are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government. FHLMC guarantees the timely payment of interest and ultimate collection of principal, but its participation certificates are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government.
Guarantees and Indemnifications. Under the Trust’s organizational documents, each Trustee, officer, employee or other agent of the Trust (including the Trust’s investment manager) is indemnified against certain liabilities that may arise out of performance of their duties to the Portfolio. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Portfolio enters into contracts that contain a variety of indemnification clauses. The Portfolio’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Portfolio that have not yet occurred. However, the Portfolio has not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts, and believes the risk of loss to be remote.

New Accounting Policies. In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes—an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (the “Interpretation”). The Interpretation is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. Management is currently evaluating the application of the Interpretation to the Portfolio and will provide additional information in relation to the Interpretation in the Portfolio’s annual financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2006.
3. FEES, EXPENSES, AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Investment Advisory Fee. PIMCO is a majority-owned subsidiary of Allianz Global Investors of America L.P. (“AGI”), and serves as investment adviser (the “Adviser”) to the Trust, pursuant to an investment advisory contract. The Adviser receives a monthly fee at an annual rate based on average daily net assets of the Portfolio. The Advisory Fee is charged at an annual rate of 0.15%.
Administration Fee. PIMCO serves as administrator (the “Administrator”), and provides administrative services to the Trust for which it receives a monthly administrative fee based on average daily net assets of the Portfolio. As the Administrator, PIMCO bears the costs of various third-party services, including audit, custodial, portfolio accounting, legal, transfer agency and printing costs. The Administration Fee is charged at the annual rate of 0.20%.
Distribution and Servicing Fees. Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC (“AGID”) is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of AGI and serves as the distributor of the Trust’s shares. The Trust is permitted to reimburse AGID on a quarterly basis, out of the Administrative Class assets of the Portfolio in the amount of 0.15% on an annual basis of the average daily net assets of that class, for payments made to financial intermediaries that provide services in connection with the distribution of shares or administration of plans or programs that use Portfolio shares as their funding medium. The effective rate paid to AGID was 0.15% during the current fiscal year.
Expenses. The Trust is responsible for the following expenses: (i) salaries and other compensation of any of the Trust’s executive officers and employees who are not officers, directors, stockholders or employees of PIMCO or its subsidiaries or affiliates; (ii) taxes and governmental fees; (iii) brokerage fees and commissions and other portfolio transaction expenses; (iv) the costs of borrowing money, including interest expenses and bank overdraft charges; (v) fees and expenses of the Trustees who are not “interested persons” of PIMCO or the Trust, and any counsel retained exclusively for their benefit; (vi) extraordinary expenses, including costs of litigation and indemnification expenses; (vii) organization expenses and (viii) any expenses allocated or allocable to a specific class of shares, which include service fees payable with respect to the Administrative Class shares and may include certain other expenses as permitted by the Trust’s Multiple Class Plan adopted pursuant to Rule 18f-3 under the Act and subject to review and approval by the Trustees. The ratio of expenses to average net assets per share class, as disclosed in the Financial Highlights, may differ from the annual portfolio operating expenses per share class as disclosed in the Prospectus for the reasons set forth above.
For the current period ended June 30, 2006, each unaffiliated Trustee received an annual retainer of $15,000, plus $2,000 for each Board of Trustees quarterly meeting attended, $500 for each Board of Trustees committee meeting attended and $500 for each special board meeting attended, plus reimbursement of related expenses. In addition, each Committee Chair received an additional annual retainer of $500 and each Audit Committee Chair received an additional annual retainer of $1,500. These expenses are allocated on a pro-rata basis to each Portfolio of the Trust according to its respective net assets. The Trust pays no compensation directly to any Trustee or any other officer who is affiliated with the Administrator, all of whom receive remuneration for their services to the Trust from the Administrator or its affiliates.

| | | | |
Aggregate Gross Unrealized Appreciation | | Aggregate Gross Unrealized (Depreciation) | | Net Unrealized (Depreciation) |
$ 0 | | $ 0 | | $ 0 |
7. REGULATORY AND LITIGATION MATTERS
On June 1, 2004, the Attorney General of the State of New Jersey announced that it had dismissed PIMCO from a complaint filed by the New Jersey Attorney General on February 17, 2004, and that it had entered into a settlement agreement (the “New Jersey Settlement”) with Allianz Global Investors of America L.P. (“AGI”) (formerly known as Allianz Dresdner Asset Management of America L.P.), PEA Capital LLC (an entity affiliated with PIMCO through common ownership) (“PEA”) and Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC (“AGID”), in connection with the same matter. In the New Jersey Settlement, AGI, PEA and AGID neither admitted nor denied the allegations or conclusions of law, but did agree to pay New Jersey a civil fine of $15 million and $3 million for investigative costs and further potential enforcement initiatives against unrelated parties. They also undertook to implement certain governance changes. The complaint relating to the New Jersey Settlement alleged, among other things, that AGI, PEA and AGID had failed to disclose that they improperly allowed certain hedge funds to engage in “market timing” in certain funds. The complaint sought injunctive relief, civil monetary penalties, restitution and disgorgement of profits.
Since February 2004, PIMCO, AGI, PEA, AGID, and certain of their affiliates, including the PIMCO Funds, the Allianz Funds (formerly known as PIMCO Funds: Multi-Manager Series), and the Trustees and employees of the PIMCO Funds, have been named as defendants in fifteen lawsuits filed in various jurisdictions. Eleven of those lawsuits concern “market timing,” and they have been transferred to and consolidated for pre-trial proceedings in a multi-district litigation proceeding in the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland; the other four lawsuits concern “revenue sharing” and have been consolidated into a single action in the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut. The lawsuits have been commenced as putative class actions on behalf of investors who purchased, held or redeemed shares of the various series of the PIMCO Funds and the Allianz Funds during specified periods, or as derivative actions on behalf of the PIMCO Funds and Allianz Funds.
The market timing actions in the District of Maryland generally allege that certain hedge funds were allowed to engage in “market timing” in certain of the PIMCO Funds and the Allianz Funds and this alleged activity was not disclosed. Pursuant to tolling agreements entered into with the derivative and class action plaintiffs, PIMCO, the Trustees, and certain employees of PIMCO who were previously named as defendants have all been dropped as defendants in the market timing actions; the plaintiffs continue to assert claims on behalf of the shareholders of the PIMCO Funds or on behalf of the PIMCO Funds themselves against other defendants. By order dated November 3, 2005, the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland granted the PIMCO Funds’ motion to dismiss claims asserted against it in a consolidated amended complaint where the PIMCO Funds were named, in the complaint, as a nominal defendant. The revenue sharing action in the District of Connecticut generally alleges that fund assets were inappropriately used to pay brokers to promote the PIMCO Funds and Allianz Funds, including directing fund brokerage transactions to such brokers, and that such alleged arrangements were not fully disclosed to shareholders. On August 11, 2005 the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut conducted a hearing on defendants’ motion to dismiss the consolidated amended complaint in the revenue sharing action but has not yet ruled on the motion to dismiss. The market timing and revenue sharing lawsuits seek, among other things, unspecified compensatory damages plus interest and, in some cases, punitive damages, the rescission of investment advisory contracts, the return of fees paid under those contracts and restitution.
Under Section 9(a) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“1940 Act”), if the New Jersey Settlement or any of the lawsuits described above were to result in a court injunction against AGI, PEA, AGID and/or their affiliates, PIMCO could, in the absence of exemptive relief granted by the SEC, be barred from serving as an investment adviser, and AGID could be barred from serving as principal underwriter, to any registered investment company, including the Portfolios of the Trust. In connection with an inquiry from the SEC concerning the status of the New Jersey Settlement under Section 9(a), PEA, AGID, AGI and certain of their affiliates (including PIMCO) (together, the “Applicants”) have sought exemptive relief from the SEC under Section 9(c) of the 1940 Act. The SEC has granted the Applicants a temporary exemption from the provisions of Section 9(a) with respect to the New Jersey Settlement until the earlier of (i) September 13, 2006 and (ii) the date on which the SEC takes final action on their application for a permanent order. There is no assurance that the SEC will issue a permanent order.
Two nearly identical class action civil complaints have been filed in August 2005, in the Northern District of Illinois Eastern Division alleging that the plaintiffs each purchased and sold a 10-year Treasury note futures contract and suffered damages from an alleged shortage when PIMCO held both physical and futures positions in
| | | | |
12 | | PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust | | |
| | |
| |
| | June 30, 2006 (Unaudited) |
10-year Treasury notes for its client accounts. The two actions have been consolidated into one action, and the two separate complaints have been replaced by a consolidated complaint. PIMCO is a named defendant, and the PIMCO Funds have been added as a defendant, to the consolidated action. PIMCO strongly believes the complaint (and any consolidated complaint filed hereafter) is without merit and intends to vigorously defend itself.
Certain Portfolios of the Trust were recently served in an adversary proceeding brought by the Official Committee of Asbestos Claimants of G-I Holdings, Inc. in G-I Holdings, Inc.’s bankruptcy in the District of New Jersey. PIMCO was previously named in this lawsuit and remains a defendant. The plaintiff seeks to recover for the bankruptcy estate assets that were transferred by the predecessor entity of G-I Holdings, Inc. to a wholly-owned subsidiary in 1994. The subsidiary has since issued notes, of which certain Portfolios of the Trust are alleged to be holders. The complaint alleges that in 2000, more than two hundred noteholders—including certain Portfolios of the Trust—were granted a second priority lien on the assets of the subsidiary in exchange for their consent to a refinancing transaction and the granting of a first priority lien to the lending banks. The plaintiff is seeking invalidation of the lien in favor of the noteholders and/or the value of the lien.
It is possible that these matters and/or other developments resulting from these matters could result in increased fund redemptions or other adverse consequences to the Portfolios. However, PIMCO and AGID believe that these matters are not likely to have a material adverse effect on the Portfolios or on PIMCO’s or AGID’s ability to perform their respective investment advisory or distribution services relating to the Portfolios.

Chairman’s Letter
Dear PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust Shareholder:
It is our pleasure to present to you the semiannual report for the PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust covering the six-month period ended June 30, 2006.
Highlights of the global bond markets during the six-month period included:
| n | | Most fixed-income sectors lost ground during the first half of 2006, as concern about accelerating inflation and central bank tightening pushed interest rates higher worldwide. The benchmark Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index (which includes Treasury, Investment-Grade Corporate, and Residential Mortgage-Backed Securities) returned -0.72% for the first six months of the year. On June 30, the benchmark ten-year Treasury yielded 5.14%, 0.75% higher than at the start of the year. The U.S. yield curve remained flat as shorter-maturity yields rose by a comparable amount. |
| n | | The Federal Reserve tightened four times during the reporting period, bringing the Federal Funds Rate to 5.25%. The increase near the end of the period was the Federal Reserve’s 17th consecutive rate hike since the start of its tightening cycle in 2004. The Federal Reserve was not alone, as central banks in Europe, India, and China tightened credit in unison for the first time since 2000. The Bank of Japan, whose zero-interest-rate policy has flooded global markets with liquidity, looked set to reverse this policy in the coming months. |
In these pages please find a more complete Portfolio review as it relates to financial-market activities, as well as details about total-return investment performance for the six-month reporting period. Thank you for the trust you have placed in us. We will continue to work diligently to meet your investment needs.
Sincerely,

Brent R. Harris
Chairman, PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust

Important Information About the Portfolio
PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust (the “Trust”) is an open-end management investment company currently consisting of nineteen separate investment portfolios, including the Real Return Portfolio (the “Portfolio”). The Portfolio is only available as a funding vehicle under variable life insurance policies or variable annuity contracts issued by insurance companies (“Variable Contracts”). Individuals may not purchase shares of the Portfolio directly. Shares of the Portfolio also may be sold to qualified pension and retirement plans outside of the separate account context.
We believe that bond funds have an important role to play in a well diversified investment portfolio. It is important to note, however, that in an environment where interest rates may trend upward, rising rates would negatively impact the performance of most bond funds, and fixed-income securities held by a fund are likely to decrease in value. The price volatility of fixed-income securities can also increase during periods of rising interest rates resulting in increased losses to a fund. Bond funds and individual bonds with a longer duration (a measure of the expected life of a security) tend to be more sensitive to changes in interest rates, usually making them more volatile than securities or funds with shorter durations. The longer-term performance of most bond funds has benefited from capital gains in part resulting from an extended period of declining interest rates. In the event interest rates increase, these capital gains should not be expected to recur.
The Portfolio may be subject to various risks in addition to those described above. Some of these risks may include, but are not limited to, the following: credit risk, high yield risk, market risk, issuer risk, liquidity risk, derivatives risk, mortgage risk, non-U.S. investment risk, currency risk, issuer non-diversification risk, leveraging risk and management risk. A complete description of these risks is contained in the Portfolio’s prospectus. The Portfolio may use derivative instruments for hedging purposes or as part of an investment strategy. Use of these instruments may involve certain costs and risks such as liquidity risk, interest rate risk, market risk, credit risk, management risk and the risk that the Portfolio could not close out a position when it would be most advantageous to do so. A Portfolio investing in derivatives could lose more than the principal amount invested in these instruments. Investing in non-U.S. securities may entail risk due to non-U.S. economic and political developments; this risk may be increased when investing in emerging markets.
On the performance summary page in this Semiannual Report, the Total Return Investment Performance table measures performance assuming that all dividend and capital gain distributions were reinvested.
An investment in the Portfolio is not a deposit of a bank and is not guaranteed or insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. It is possible to lose money on investments in the Portfolio.
PIMCO has adopted written proxy voting policies and procedures (“Proxy Policy”) as required by Rule 206(4)-6 under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940. The Proxy Policy has been adopted by the Trust as the policies and procedures that PIMCO will use when voting proxies on behalf of the Portfolio. Copies of the written Proxy Policy and the factors that PIMCO may consider in determining how to vote proxies for the Portfolio, and information about how the Portfolio voted proxies relating to portfolio securities held during the most recent twelve-month period ended June 30, are available without charge, upon request, by calling the Trust at 1-866-746-2606 and on the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) website at http://www.sec.gov.
The Portfolio files its complete schedule of portfolio holdings with the SEC for the first and third quarters of each fiscal year on Form N-Q. A copy of the Trust’s Form N-Q is available on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov and may be reviewed and copied at the SEC’s Public Reference Room in Washington D.C. Information on the operation of the Public Reference Room may be obtained by calling 1-800-SEC-0330.
PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust is distributed by Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC, 2187 Atlantic Street, Stamford, CT 06902.

The following disclosure provides important information regarding the Portfolio’s Expense Example (“Example” or “Expense Example”), which appears in this Semiannual Report. Please refer to this information when reviewing the Expense Example for the Portfolio.
Example
As a shareholder of the Portfolio, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs and (2) ongoing costs, including advisory and administrative fees; distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees (Administrative Class only); and other Portfolio expenses. The Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Portfolio and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Expense Example does not reflect any fees or other expenses imposed by the Variable Contracts. If it did, the expenses reflected in the Expense Examples would be higher. The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period indicated, which is from January 1, 2006 to June 30, 2006.
Actual Expenses
The information in the table under the heading “Actual Performance” provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in these columns, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.60), then multiply the result by the number in the appropriate column for your share class, in the row titled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The information in the table under the heading “Hypothetical Performance (5% return before expenses)” provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Portfolio’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Portfolio’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Portfolio and other portfolios. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other portfolios.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs. Therefore, the information under the heading “Hypothetical Performance (5% return before expenses)” is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different portfolios. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.
The expense ratio may vary period to period because of various factors, such as an increase in expenses not covered by the advisory and administrative fees (such as expenses of the trustees and their counsel or litigation expense).
Portfolio Benchmark
Lehman Brothers U.S. TIPS Index is an unmanaged market index comprised of all U.S. Treasury Inflation Protected Securities rated investment grade (Baa3 or better), have at least one year to final maturity, and at least $250 million par amount outstanding.

Past performance is no guarantee of future results. The performance quoted represents past performance. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so the Portfolio shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. The Portfolio’s performance does not reflect the deduction of additional charges and expenses imposed in connection with investing in Variable Contracts, which will reduce returns. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. Performance data current to the most recent month-end is available by calling (800) 927-4648.

Overall fees and expenses of investing in the Portfolio will be higher because the example does not reflect Variable Contract fees and expenses.

Portfolio Insights
» | | The PIMCO Real Return Portfolio seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing under normal circumstances at least 80% of its net assets in inflation-indexed bonds of varying maturities issued by the U.S. and non-U.S. governments, their agencies or instrumentalities, and corporations. |
» | | For the six-month period ending June 30, 2006, ten-year real yields increased by 0.48%, compared to a 0.82% increase for conventional U.S. Treasury issues of similar maturity. |
» | | The Portfolio’s above benchmark duration for the first three-months of the period detracted from overall performance, as real yields rose on strong U.S. economic growth. The effective duration of the Portfolio was 6.79 years on June 30, 2006 compared to a duration of 6.11 years for the benchmark. |
» | | The Portfolio’s emphasis on U.S. nominal bonds was negative for performance, as nominal yields rose faster than real yields based on higher inflation expectations and the outlook for further Federal Reserve tightening. |
» | | Exposure to short maturity U.S. nominal bonds for the period detracted significantly from performance due to a substantial flattening of the nominal yield curve. |
» | | Currency exposure added to performance resulting from a depreciation of the U.S. dollar relative to the Euro and Japanese Yen. |
» | | Mortgage holdings during the period were positive due to favorable coupon selection, particularly 15-year FNMA 5.0% and 30-year FNMA 5.5% coupons, which outperformed the broader Index. |
» | | Positions in pay-fixed swaps were beneficial with swap spreads mostly widening over the period. |

1. ORGANIZATION
The Real Return Portfolio (the “Portfolio”) is a series of the PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust (the “Trust”). The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “Act”), as amended, as an open-end investment management company organized as a Delaware business trust on October 3, 1997. The Portfolio offers three classes of shares: Institutional, Administrative and Advisor. Information presented in these financial statements pertains to the Administrative Class of the Portfolio. Certain detailed financial information for the Institutional Class and Advisor Class is provided separately and is available upon request. The Trust is designed to be used as an investment vehicle by Separate Accounts of insurance companies that fund variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies and by qualified pension and retirement plans.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Portfolio in the preparation of its financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Security Valuation. Portfolio securities are valued as of the close of regular trading (normally 4:00 p.m., Eastern Time) on each day that the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) is open. Portfolio securities and other assets for which market quotes are readily available are stated at market value. Market value is generally determined on the basis of last reported sales prices, or if no sales are reported, based on quotes obtained from a quotation reporting system, established market makers, or pricing services. Fixed-income securities and non-exchange traded derivatives are normally valued on the basis of quotes obtained from brokers and dealers or pricing services. Prices obtained from independent pricing services use information provided by market makers or estimates of market values obtained from yield data relating to investments or securities with similar characteristics. Certain fixed-income securities purchased on a delayed-delivery basis are marked to market daily until settlement at the forward settlement date. Short-term investments having a maturity of 60 days or less are generally valued at amortized cost. Exchange traded options, futures and options on futures are valued at the settlement price determined by the relevant exchange.
Investments initially valued in currencies other than the U.S. dollar are converted to the U.S. dollar using exchange rates obtained from pricing services. As a result, the NAV of the Portfolio’s shares may be affected by changes in the value of currencies in relation to the U.S. dollar. The value of securities traded in markets outside the United States or denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar may be affected significantly on a day that the NYSE is closed and an investor is not able to purchase, redeem or exchange shares.
Securities and other assets for which market quotes are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction. The Board of Trustees has adopted methods for valuing securities and other assets in circumstances where market quotes are not readily available, and has delegated to Pacific Investment Management Company LLC (“PIMCO”) the responsibility for applying the valuation methods. In the event that market quotes are not readily available, and the security or asset cannot be valued pursuant to one of the valuation methods, the value of the security or asset will be determined in good faith by the Valuation Committee of the Board of Trustees, generally based upon recommendations provided by PIMCO.
Market quotes are considered not readily available in circumstances where there is an absence of current or reliable market-based data (e.g., trade information, bid/asked information, broker quotes), including where events occur after the close of the relevant market, but prior to the close of regular trading, that materially affect the values of the Portfolio’s securities or assets. In addition, market quotes are considered not readily available when, due to extraordinary circumstances, the exchanges or markets on which the securities trade do not open for trading for the entire day and no other market prices are available. The Board has delegated to PIMCO the responsibility for monitoring significant events that may materially affect the values of the Portfolio’s securities or assets and for determining whether the value of the applicable securities or assets should be re-evaluated in light of such significant events when the Portfolio uses fair value pricing to determine its NAV, securities will not be priced on the basis of quotations from the primary market in which they are traded, but rather may be priced by another method that the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction believe accurately reflects fair value. The Trust’s policy is intended to result in a calculation of the Portfolio’s NAV that fairly reflects security values as of the time of pricing. However, fair values determined by the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction may not accurately reflect the price that the Portfolio could obtain for a security if it were to dispose of that security as of the time of pricing. Because foreign securities can trade on non-business days, the NAV of the Portfolio may change on days when shareholders will not be able to purchase or redeem shares. The prices used by the Portfolio may differ from the value that would be realized if the securities were sold and the differences could be material to the financial statements.
Securities Transactions and Investment Income. Securities transactions are recorded as of the trade date. Securities purchased or sold on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis may be settled a month or more after the trade date. Realized gains and losses from securities sold are recorded on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Portfolio is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, adjusted for the accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis. Paydown gains and losses on mortgage-related or asset-backed securities are recorded as components of interest income in the Statement of Operations.
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends from net investment income, if any, are declared on each day the Portfolio is open for business and are distributed to shareholders monthly. Net realized capital gains earned by the Portfolio, if any, will be distributed no less frequently than once each year. Most shareholders choose to reinvest their dividends and capital gain distribution in additional shares of the Portfolio.
Income dividends and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP. Differences between tax regulations and GAAP may change the fiscal year when income and capital items are recognized for tax and GAAP purposes. Examples of events that give rise to timing differences include wash sales, straddles, net operating losses and capital loss carryforwards. Further, the character of investment income and capital gains may be different for certain transactions under the two methods of accounting. Examples of characterization differences include the treatment of mortgage paydowns, swaps, foreign currency transactions and contingent debt instruments. As a result, income dividends and capital gain distributions declared during a fiscal period may differ significantly from the net investment income and realized capital gain reported in the Portfolio’s annual financial statements presented under GAAP.
Distributions classified as a tax basis return of capital, if any, are reflected in the accompanying Statements of Changes in Net Assets and have been reclassified to
| | | | | | |
| | Semiannual Report | | June 30, 2006 | | 15 |
Notes to Financial Statements (Cont.)
paid in capital. In addition, other amounts have been reclassified between undistributed net investment income, accumulated undistributed net realized gains or losses and/or paid in capital to more appropriately conform financial accounting to tax characterizations of dividend distributions.
Multiclass Operations. Each class offered by the Portfolio has equal rights as to assets and voting privileges (except that shareholders of a class have exclusive voting rights regarding any matter relating solely to that class of shares). Income and non-class specific expenses of the Portfolio are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative value of settled shares. Realized and unrealized capital gains and losses of the Portfolio are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative net assets of each class. Class specific expenses, where applicable, currently include administrative, distribution and servicing fees.
Delayed-Delivery Transactions. The Portfolio may purchase or sell securities on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis. These transactions involve a commitment by the Portfolio to purchase or sell securities for a predetermined price or yield, with payment and delivery taking place beyond the customary settlement period. When delayed-delivery purchases are outstanding, the Portfolio will designate liquid assets in an amount sufficient to meet the purchase price. When purchasing a security on a delayed-delivery basis, the Portfolio assumes the rights and risks of ownership of the security, including the risk of price and yield fluctuations, and takes such fluctuations into account when determining its net asset value. The Portfolio may dispose of or renegotiate a delayed-delivery transaction after it is entered into, and may sell when-issued securities before they are delivered, which may result in a capital gain or loss. When the Portfolio has sold a security on a delayed-delivery basis, the Portfolio does not participate in future gains and losses with respect to the security.
Federal Income Taxes. The Portfolio intends to qualify as a regulated investment company under sub-chapter M of the Internal Revenue Code and distribute all of its taxable income and net realized gains, if applicable, to shareholders. Accordingly, no provision for Federal income taxes has been made.
Foreign Currency. The accounting records of the Portfolio are maintained in U.S. dollar. The market values of foreign securities, currency holdings and other assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollar based on the current exchange rates each business day. Fluctuations in the value of currency holdings and other assets and liabilities resulting from changes in exchange rates are recorded as unrealized foreign currency gains or losses. Realized gains or losses and unrealized appreciation or depreciation on investment securities and income and expenses are translated on the respective dates of such transactions. The effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on investments in securities are not segregated in the Statement of Operations from the effects of changes in market prices of those securities, but are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss on investment securities.

Non-U.S. currency symbols utilized throughout the report are defined as follows: |
CAD | | Canadian Dollar | | PLN | | Polish Zloty |
EUR | | Euro | | RUB | | Russian Ruble |
GBP | | British Pound | | SKK | | Slovakian Koruna |
JPY | | Japanese Yen | | | | |
Forward Currency Transactions. The Portfolio may enter into forward currency contracts in connection with settling planned purchases or sales of securities, to hedge the currency exposure associated with some or all of the Portfolio’s securities or as a part of an investment strategy. A forward currency contract is an agreement between two parties to buy and sell a currency at a set price on a future date. The market value of a forward currency contract fluctuates with changes in forward currency exchange rates. Forward currency contracts are marked to market daily and the change in value is recorded by the Portfolio as an unrealized gain or loss. Realized gains or losses equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed are recorded upon delivery or receipt of the currency or, if a forward currency contract is offset by entering into another forward currency contract with the same broker, upon settlement of the net gain or loss. These contracts may involve market risk in excess of the unrealized gain or loss reflected in the Portfolio’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities. In addition, the Portfolio could be exposed to risk if the counterparties are unable to meet the terms of the contracts or if the value of the currency changes unfavorably to the U.S. dollar.
Futures Contracts. The Portfolio is authorized to enter into futures contracts. The Portfolio may use futures contracts to manage its exposure to the securities markets or to movements in interest rates and currency values. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are the imperfect correlation between the change in market value of the securities held by the Portfolio and the prices of futures contracts, the possibility of an illiquid market, and the inability of the counterparty to meet the terms of the contract. Futures contracts are valued based upon their quoted daily settlement prices. Upon entering into a futures contract, the Portfolio is required to deposit with its custodian, in a segregated account in the name of the futures broker, an amount of cash or U.S. Government and Agency Obligations in accordance with the initial margin requirements of the broker or exchange. Futures contracts are marked to market daily and an appropriate payable or receivable for the change in value (“variation margin”) is recorded by the Portfolio. Gains or losses are recognized but not considered realized until the contracts expire or are closed. Futures contracts involve, to varying degrees, risk of loss in excess of the variation margin disclosed in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
Inflation-Indexed Bonds. The Portfolio may invest in inflation-indexed bonds. Inflation-indexed bonds are fixed-income securities whose principal value is periodically adjusted to the rate of inflation. The interest rate on these bonds is generally fixed at issuance at a rate lower than typical bonds. Over the life of an inflation-indexed bond, however, interest will be paid based on a principal value, which is adjusted for inflation. Any increase in the principal amount of an inflation-indexed bond will be included as interest income in the Statement of Operations, even though investors do not receive their principal until maturity.
Loan Participant and Assignments. The Portfolio may invest in direct debt instruments which are interests in amounts owned by corporate, governmental, or other borrowers to lenders or lending syndicates. The Portfolio’s investments in loans may be in the form of participations in loans or assignments of all or a portion of loans from third parties. A loan is often administered by a bank or other financial institution (the “lender”) that acts as agent for all holders. Then agent administers the terms of the loan, as specified in the loan agreement. When investing in a loan participation, the Portfolio has the right to receive payments of principal, interest and any fees to which it is entitled only from the lender selling the loan agreement and only upon receipt by the lender of payments from the borrower. The Portfolio generally has no right to enforce compliance with the terms of the loan agreement with the borrower. As a result, the Portfolio may be subject to the credit of both the borrower and the lender that is selling the loan agreement. When the Portfolio purchases assignments from lenders it acquires direct rights against the borrower on the loan. At the end of the period, the Portfolio had no unfunded loan commitments.
Options Contracts. The Portfolio may write call and put options on futures, swaps, securities or currencies it owns or in which it may invest. Writing put options tends to increase the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. Writing call options tends to decrease the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. When the Portfolio writes a call or put option, an amount equal to the
| | | | |

| | |
| |
| | June 30, 2006 (Unaudited) |
premium received is recorded as a liability and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the option written. These liabilities are reflected as written options outstanding in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Certain options may be written with premiums to determined on a future date. The premiums for these options are based upon implied volatility parameters at specified terms. Premiums received from writing options which expire are treated as realized gains. Premiums received from writing options which are exercised or closed are added to the proceeds or offset against amounts paid on the underlying future, swap, security or currency transaction to determine the realized gain or loss. The Portfolio as a writer of an option has no control over whether the underlying future, swap, security or currency may be sold (call) or purchased (put) and as a result bears the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the future, swap, security or currency underlying the written option. There is the risk the Portfolio may not be able to enter into a closing transaction because of an illiquid market.
The Portfolio may also purchase put and call options. Purchasing call options tends to increase the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. Purchasing put options tends to decrease the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. The Portfolio pays a premium which is included in the Portfolio’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an investment and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the option. Premiums paid for purchasing options which expire are treated as realized losses. Certain options may be purchased with premiums to be determined on a future date. The premiums for these options are based upon implied volatility parameters at specified terms. The risk associated with purchasing put and call options is limited to the premium paid. Premiums paid for purchasing options which are exercised or closed are added to the amounts paid or offset against the proceeds on the underlying future, swap, security or currency transaction to determine the realized gain or loss.
Repurchase Agreements. The Portfolio may engage in repurchase transactions. Under the terms of a typical repurchase agreement, the Portfolio takes possession of an underlying debt obligation subject to an obligation of the seller to repurchase, and the Portfolio to resell, the obligation at an agreed-upon price and time. The underlying securities for all repurchase agreements are held in safekeeping at the Portfolio’s custodian or designated subcustodians under triparty repurchase agreements. The market value of the collateral must be equal to or exceed at all times the total amount of the repurchase obligations, including interest. Securities purchased under repurchase agreements are reflected as an asset in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Generally, in the event of counterparty default, the Portfolio has the right to use the collateral to offset losses incurred. If the counterparty should default, the Portfolio will seek to sell the securities which it holds as collateral. This could involve procedural costs or delays in addition to a loss on the securities if their value should fall below their repurchase price.
Short Sales. The Portfolio may enter into short sales transactions. A short sale is a transaction in which the Portfolio sells securities it does not own in anticipation of a decline in the market price of the securities. Securities sold in short sale transactions and interest payable on such securities, if any, are reflected as a liability in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The Portfolio is obligated to deliver securities at the market price at the time the short position is closed. Possible losses from short sales may be unlimited, whereas losses from purchases cannot exceed the total amount invested.
Mortgage-Related and Other Asset-Backed Securities. The Portfolio may invest in mortgage-related or other asset-backed securities. These securities include mortgage pass-through securities, collateralized mortgage obligations (“CMOs”), commercial mortgage-backed securities, mortgage dollar rolls, CMO residuals, stripped mortgage-backed securities (“SMBSs”) and other securities
that directly or indirectly represent a participation in, or are secured by and payable from, mortgage loans on real property. The value of some mortgage- or asset-backed securities may be particularly sensitive to changes in prevailing interest rates. Early repayment of principal on some mortgage-related securities may expose the Portfolio to a lower rate of return upon reinvestment of principal. The value of these securities may fluctuate in response to the market’s perception of the creditworthiness of the issuers. Additionally, although mortgages and mortgage-related securities are generally supported by some form of government or private guarantee and/or insurance, there is no assurance that private guarantors or insurers will meet their obligations.
One type of SMBS has one class receiving all of the interest from the mortgage assets (the interest-only, or “IO” class), while the other class will receive all of the principal (the principal-only, or “PO” class). Payments received for IOs are included in interest income in the Statement of Operations. Because principal will not be received at the maturity of an IO, adjustments are made to the book value of the security on a daily basis until maturity. These adjustments are included in interest income in the Statement of Operations. Payments received for POs are treated as reductions to the cost and par value of the securities.
Swap Agreements. The Portfolio may engage in swap transactions, including, but not limited to, swap agreements on interest rate and credit default to manage its exposure to interest rates and credit risk. In connection with these agreements, securities may be identified as collateral in accordance with the terms of the respective swap agreements.
Interest rate swap agreements involve the exchange by the Portfolio with another party of their respective commitments to pay or receive interest, e.g., an exchange of floating rate payments for fixed rate payments with respect to the notional amount of principal.
Credit default swap agreements involve one party making a stream of payments to another party in exchange for the right to receive a specified return in the event of a default by a third party, typically corporate issues or sovereign issues of an emerging country, on its obligation. The Portfolio may use credit default swaps to provide a measure of protection against defaults of the issuers (i.e., to reduce risk where the Portfolio owns or has exposure to the sovereign issuer) or to take an active long or short position with respect to the likelihood of a particular issuer’s default. As a seller of protection, the Portfolio generally receives an upfront payment or a fixed rate of income throughout the term of the swap provided that there is no credit event. If the Portfolio is a seller of protection and a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement, the Portfolio will pay to the buyer of the protection an amount up to the notional value of the swap and in certain instances take delivery of the security. As the seller, the Portfolio would effectively add leverage to its portfolio because, in addition to its total net assets, the Portfolio would be subject to investment exposure on the notional amount of the swap. As a buyer of protection, the Portfolio generally receives an amount up to the notional value of the swap if a credit event occurs. The treatment of a credit default swaps and other swap agreements that provide for contingent, non-periodic, bullet-type payments as “notional principal contracts” for federal income tax purposes is uncertain. Were the Internal Revenue Service in take the position that a credit default swap or other bullet-type swap is not a “notional principal contract” for federal income tax purposes, payments received by the Portfolio from such investments might be subject to income taxes.
Swaps are marked to market daily based upon quotations from market makers and the change in value, if any, is recorded as unrealized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Payments received or made at the beginning of the measurement period are reflected as such in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. These upfront payments are recorded as realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations upon termination or maturity of the swap. A liquidation payment received or made at the termination of the swap is recorded as realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Net periodic payments received by the Portfolio are included as part of realized gain or loss in the Statement of
| | | | | | |

Notes to Financial Statements (Cont.)
Operations. Entering into these agreements involves, to varying degrees, elements of credit, market and documentation risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Such risks involve the possibility that there will be no liquid market for these agreements, that the counterparty to the agreements may default on its obligation to perform or disagree as to the meaning of contractual terms in the agreements and that there may be unfavorable changes in interest rates.
U.S. Government Agencies or Government-Sponsored Enterprises. Securities issued by U.S. Government agencies or government-sponsored enterprises may not be guaranteed by the U.S. Treasury. The Government National Mortgage Association (“GNMA”), a wholly owned U.S. Government corporation, is authorized to guarantee, with the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government, the timely payment of principal and interest on securities issued by institutions approved by GNMA and backed by pools of mortgages insured by the Federal Housing Administration or guaranteed by the Department of Veterans Affairs. Government-related guarantors (i.e., not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government) include the Federal National Mortgage Association (“FNMA” or “Fannie Mae”) and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“FHLMC” or “Freddie Mac”). Pass-through securities issued by FNMA are guaranteed as to timely payment of principal and interest by FNMA but are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government. FHLMC guarantees the timely payment of interest and ultimate collection of principal, but its participation certificates are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government.
Guarantees and Indemnifications. Under the Trust’s organizational documents, each Trustee, officer, employee or other agent of the Trust (including the Trust’s investment manager) is indemnified against certain liabilities that may arise out of performance of their duties to the Portfolio. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Portfolio enters into contracts that contain a variety of indemnification clauses. The Portfolio’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Portfolio that have not yet occurred. However, the Portfolio has not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts, and believes the risk of loss to be remote.
New Accounting Policies. In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes—an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (the “Interpretation”). The Interpretation is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. Management is currently evaluating the application of the Interpretation to the Portfolio and will provide additional information in relation to the Interpretation in the Portfolio’s annual financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2006.
3. FEES, EXPENSES, AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Investment Advisory Fee. PIMCO is a majority-owned subsidiary of Allianz Global Investors of America L.P. (“AGI”), and serves as investment adviser (the “Adviser”) to the Trust, pursuant to an investment advisory contract. The Adviser receives a monthly fee at an annual rate based on average daily net assets of the Portfolio. The Advisory Fee is charged at an annual rate of 0.25%.
Administration Fee. PIMCO serves as administrator (the “Administrator”), and provides administrative services to the Trust for which it receives a monthly administrative fee based on average daily net assets of the Portfolio. As the Administrator, PIMCO bears the costs of various third-party services, including audit, custodial, portfolio accounting, legal, transfer agency and printing costs. The Administration Fee is charged at the annual rate of 0.25%.
Distribution and Servicing Fees. Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC (“AGID”) is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of AGI and serves as the distributor of the Trust’s shares. The Trust is permitted to reimburse AGID on a quarterly basis, out of the Administrative Class assets of the Portfolio in the amount of 0.15% on an annual basis of the average daily net assets of that class, for payments made to financial intermediaries that provide services in connection with the distribution of shares or administration of plans or programs that use Portfolio shares as their funding medium. The effective rate paid to AGID was 0.15% during the current fiscal year.
Expenses. The Trust is responsible for the following expenses: (i) salaries and other compensation of any of the Trust’s executive officers and employees who are not officers, directors, stockholders or employees of PIMCO or its subsidiaries or affiliates; (ii) taxes and governmental fees; (iii) brokerage fees and commissions and other portfolio transaction expenses; (iv) the costs of borrowing money, including interest expenses and bank overdraft charges; (v) fees and expenses of the Trustees who are not “interested persons” of PIMCO or the Trust, and any counsel retained exclusively for their benefit; (vi) extraordinary expenses, including costs of litigation and indemnification expenses; (vii) organization expenses and (viii) any expenses allocated or allocable to a specific class of shares, which include service fees payable with respect to the Administrative Class shares and may include certain other expenses as permitted by the Trust’s Multiple Class Plan adopted pursuant to Rule 18f-3 under the Act and subject to review and approval by the Trustees. The ratio of expenses to average net assets per share class, as disclosed in the Financial Highlights, may differ from the annual portfolio operating expenses per share class as disclosed in the Prospectus for the reasons set forth above.
For the current period ended June 30, 2006, each unaffiliated Trustee received an annual retainer of $15,000, plus $2,000 for each Board of Trustees quarterly meeting attended, $500 for each Board of Trustees committee meeting attended and $500 for each special board meeting attended, plus reimbursement of related expenses. In addition, each Committee Chair received an additional annual retainer of $500 and each Audit Committee Chair received an additional annual retainer of $1,500. These expenses are allocated on a pro-rata basis to each Portfolio of the Trust according to its respective net assets. The Trust pays no compensation directly to any Trustee or any other officer who is affiliated with the Administrator, all of whom receive remuneration for their services to the Trust from the Administrator or its affiliates.
4. PURCHASES AND SALES OF SECURITIES
The length of time the Portfolio has held a particular security is not generally a consideration in investment decisions. A change in the securities held by the Portfolio is known as “portfolio turnover”. The Portfolio may engage in frequent and active trading of portfolio securities to achieve its investment objective, particularly during periods of volatile market movements. High portfolio turnover (e.g., over 100%) involves correspondingly greater expenses to the Portfolio, including brokerage commissions or dealer mark-ups and other transaction costs on the sale of securities and reinvestments in other securities. Such sales may also result in realization of taxable capital gains, including short-term capital gains (which are generally taxed at ordinary income tax rates). The trading costs and tax effects associated with portfolio turnover may adversely affect the Portfolio’s performance.
Purchases and sales of securities (excluding short-term investments) for the period ended June 30, 2006 were as follows (amounts in thousands):

8. REGULATORY AND LITIGATION MATTERS
On June 1, 2004, the Attorney General of the State of New Jersey announced that it had dismissed PIMCO from a complaint filed by the New Jersey Attorney General on February 17, 2004, and that it had entered into a settlement agreement (the “New Jersey Settlement”) with Allianz Global Investors of America L.P. (“AGI”) (formerly known as Allianz Dresdner Asset Management of America L.P.), PEA Capital LLC (an entity affiliated with PIMCO through common ownership) (“PEA”) and Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC (“AGID”), in connection with the same matter. In the New Jersey Settlement, AGI, PEA and AGID neither admitted nor denied the allegations or conclusions of law, but did agree to pay New Jersey a civil fine of $15 million and $3 million for investigative costs and further potential enforcement initiatives against unrelated parties. They also undertook to implement certain governance changes. The complaint relating to the New Jersey Settlement alleged, among other things, that AGI, PEA and AGID had failed to disclose that they improperly allowed certain hedge funds to engage in “market timing” in certain funds. The complaint sought injunctive relief, civil monetary penalties, restitution and disgorgement of profits.
Since February 2004, PIMCO, AGI, PEA, AGID, and certain of their affiliates, including the PIMCO Funds, the Allianz Funds (formerly known as PIMCO Funds: Multi-Manager Series), and the Trustees and employees of the PIMCO Funds, have been named as defendants in fifteen lawsuits filed in various jurisdictions. Eleven of those lawsuits concern “market timing,” and they have been transferred to and consolidated for pre-trial proceedings in a multi-district litigation proceeding in the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland; the other four lawsuits concern “revenue sharing” and have been consolidated into a single action in the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut. The lawsuits have been commenced as putative class actions on behalf of investors who purchased, held or redeemed shares of the various series of the PIMCO Funds and the Allianz Funds during specified periods, or as derivative actions on behalf of the PIMCO Funds and Allianz Funds.
The market timing actions in the District of Maryland generally allege that certain hedge funds were allowed to engage in “market timing” in certain of the PIMCO Funds and the Allianz Funds and this alleged activity was not disclosed. Pursuant to tolling agreements entered into with the derivative and class action plaintiffs, PIMCO, the Trustees, and certain employees of PIMCO who were previously named as defendants have all been dropped as defendants in the market timing actions; the plaintiffs continue to assert claims on behalf of the shareholders of the PIMCO Funds or on behalf of the PIMCO Funds themselves against other defendants. By order dated November 3, 2005, the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland granted the PIMCO Funds’ motion to dismiss claims asserted against it in a consolidated amended complaint where the PIMCO Funds were named, in the complaint, as a nominal defendant. The revenue sharing action in the District of Connecticut generally alleges that fund assets were inappropriately used to pay brokers to promote the PIMCO Funds and Allianz Funds, including directing fund brokerage transactions to such brokers, and that such alleged arrangements were not fully disclosed to shareholders. On August 11, 2005 the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut conducted a hearing on defendants’ motion to dismiss the consolidated amended complaint in the revenue sharing action but has not yet ruled on the motion to dismiss. The market timing and revenue sharing lawsuits seek, among other things, unspecified compensatory damages plus interest and, in some cases, punitive damages, the rescission of investment advisory contracts, the return of fees paid under those contracts and restitution.
Under Section 9(a) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“1940 Act”), if the New Jersey Settlement or any of the lawsuits described above were to result in a court injunction against AGI, PEA, AGID and/or their affiliates, PIMCO could, in the absence of exemptive relief granted by the SEC, be barred from serving as an investment adviser, and AGID could be barred from serving as principal underwriter, to any registered investment company, including the

Notes to Financial Statements (Cont.)
Portfolios of the Trust. In connection with an inquiry from the SEC concerning the status of the New Jersey Settlement under Section 9(a), PEA, AGID, AGI and certain of their affiliates (including PIMCO) (together, the “Applicants”) have sought exemptive relief from the SEC under Section 9(c) of the 1940 Act. The SEC has granted the Applicants a temporary exemption from the provisions of Section 9(a) with respect to the New Jersey Settlement until the earlier of (i) September 13, 2006 and (ii) the date on which the SEC takes final action on their application for a permanent order. There is no assurance that the SEC will issue a permanent order.
Two nearly identical class action civil complaints have been filed in August 2005, in the Northern District of Illinois Eastern Division alleging that the plaintiffs each purchased and sold a 10-year Treasury note futures contract and suffered damages from an alleged shortage when PIMCO held both physical and futures positions in 10-year Treasury notes for its client accounts. The two actions have been consolidated into one action, and the two separate complaints have been replaced by a consolidated complaint. PIMCO is a named defendant, and the PIMCO Funds have been added as a defendant, to the consolidated action. PIMCO strongly believes the complaint (and any consolidated complaint filed hereafter) is without merit and intends to vigorously defend itself.
Certain Portfolios of the Trust were recently served in an adversary proceeding brought by the Official Committee of Asbestos Claimants of G-I Holdings, Inc. in G-I Holdings, Inc.’s bankruptcy in the District of New Jersey. PIMCO was previously named in this lawsuit and remains a defendant. The plaintiff seeks to recover for the bankruptcy estate assets that were transferred by the predecessor entity of G-I Holdings, Inc. to a wholly-owned subsidiary in 1994. The subsidiary has since issued notes, of which certain Portfolios of the Trust are alleged to be holders. The complaint alleges that in 2000, more than two hundred noteholders—including certain Portfolios of the Trust—were granted a second priority lien on the assets of the subsidiary in exchange for their consent to a refinancing transaction and the granting of a first priority lien to the lending banks. The plaintiff is seeking invalidation of the lien in favor of the noteholders and/or the value of the lien.
It is possible that these matters and/or other developments resulting from these matters could result in increased fund redemptions or other adverse consequences to the Portfolios. However, PIMCO and AGID believe that these matters are not likely to have a material adverse effect on the Portfolios or on PIMCO’s or AGID’s ability to perform their respective investment advisory or distribution services relating to the Portfolios.

Chairman’s Letter
Dear PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust Shareholder:
It is our pleasure to present to you the semiannual report for the PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust covering the six-month period ended June 30, 2006.
Highlights of the global bond markets during the six-month period included:
| n | | Most fixed-income sectors lost ground during the first half of 2006, as concern about accelerating inflation and central bank tightening pushed interest rates higher worldwide. The benchmark Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index (which includes Treasury, Investment-Grade Corporate, and Residential Mortgage-Backed Securities) returned -0.72% for the first six months of the year. On June 30, the benchmark ten-year Treasury yielded 5.14%, 0.75% higher than at the start of the year. The U.S. yield curve remained flat as shorter-maturity yields rose by a comparable amount. |
| n | | The Federal Reserve tightened four times during the reporting period, bringing the Federal Funds Rate to 5.25%. The increase near the end of the period was the Federal Reserve’s 17th consecutive rate hike since the start of its tightening cycle in 2004. The Federal Reserve was not alone, as central banks in Europe, India, and China tightened credit in unison for the first time since 2000. The Bank of Japan, whose zero-interest-rate policy has flooded global markets with liquidity, looked set to reverse this policy in the coming months. |
In these pages please find a more complete Portfolio review as it relates to financial-market activities, as well as details about total-return investment performance for the six-month reporting period. Thank you for the trust you have placed in us. We will continue to work diligently to meet your investment needs.
Sincerely,

Brent R. Harris
Chairman, PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust

Important Information About the Portfolio
PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust (the “Trust”) is an open-end management investment company currently consisting of nineteen separate investment portfolios, including the Real Return Portfolio (the “Portfolio”). The Portfolio is only available as a funding vehicle under variable life insurance policies or variable annuity contracts issued by insurance companies (“Variable Contracts”). Individuals may not purchase shares of the Portfolio directly. Shares of the Portfolio also may be sold to qualified pension and retirement plans outside of the separate account context.
We believe that bond funds have an important role to play in a well diversified investment portfolio. It is important to note, however, that in an environment where interest rates may trend upward, rising rates would negatively impact the performance of most bond funds, and fixed-income securities held by a fund are likely to decrease in value. The price volatility of fixed-income securities can also increase during periods of rising interest rates resulting in increased losses to a fund. Bond funds and individual bonds with a longer duration (a measure of the expected life of a security) tend to be more sensitive to changes in interest rates, usually making them more volatile than securities or funds with shorter durations. The longer-term performance of most bond funds has benefited from capital gains in part resulting from an extended period of declining interest rates. In the event interest rates increase, these capital gains should not be expected to recur.
The Portfolio may be subject to various risks in addition to those described above. Some of these risks may include, but are not limited to, the following: credit risk, high yield risk, market risk, issuer risk, liquidity risk, derivatives risk, mortgage risk, non-U.S. investment risk, currency risk, issuer non-diversification risk, leveraging risk and management risk. A complete description of these risks is contained in the Portfolio’s prospectus. The Portfolio may use derivative instruments for hedging purposes or as part of an investment strategy. Use of these instruments may involve certain costs and risks such as liquidity risk, interest rate risk, market risk, credit risk, management risk and the risk that the Portfolio could not close out a position when it would be most advantageous to do so. A Portfolio investing in derivatives could lose more than the principal amount invested in these instruments. Investing in non-U.S. securities may entail risk due to non-U.S. economic and political developments; this risk may be increased when investing in emerging markets.
On the performance summary page in this Semiannual Report, the Total Return Investment Performance table measures performance assuming that all dividend and capital gain distributions were reinvested.
An investment in the Portfolio is not a deposit of a bank and is not guaranteed or insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. It is possible to lose money on investments in the Portfolio.
PIMCO has adopted written proxy voting policies and procedures (“Proxy Policy”) as required by Rule 206(4)-6 under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940. The Proxy Policy has been adopted by the Trust as the policies and procedures that PIMCO will use when voting proxies on behalf of the Portfolio. Copies of the written Proxy Policy and the factors that PIMCO may consider in determining how to vote proxies for the Portfolio, and information about how the Portfolio voted proxies relating to portfolio securities held during the most recent twelve-month period ended June 30, are available without charge, upon request, by calling the Trust at 1-866-746-2606 and on the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) website at http://www.sec.gov.
The Portfolio files its complete schedule of portfolio holdings with the SEC for the first and third quarters of each fiscal year on Form N-Q. A copy of the Trust’s Form N-Q is available on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov and may be reviewed and copied at the SEC’s Public Reference Room in Washington D.C. Information on the operation of the Public Reference Room may be obtained by calling 1-800-SEC-0330.
PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust is distributed by Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC, 2187 Atlantic Street, Stamford, CT 06902.

The following disclosure provides important information regarding the Portfolio’s Expense Example (“Example” or “Expense Example”), which appears in this Semiannual Report. Please refer to this information when reviewing the Expense Example for the Portfolio.
Example
As a shareholder of the Portfolio, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs and (2) ongoing costs, including advisory and administrative fees; distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees (Administrative Class only); and other Portfolio expenses. The Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Portfolio and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Expense Example does not reflect any fees or other expenses imposed by the Variable Contracts. If it did, the expenses reflected in the Expense Examples would be higher. The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period indicated, which is from January 1, 2006 to June 30, 2006.
Actual Expenses
The information in the table under the heading “Actual Performance” provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in these columns, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.60), then multiply the result by the number in the appropriate column for your share class, in the row titled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The information in the table under the heading “Hypothetical Performance (5% return before expenses)” provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Portfolio’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Portfolio’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Portfolio and other portfolios. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other portfolios.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs. Therefore, the information under the heading “Hypothetical Performance (5% return before expenses)” is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different portfolios. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.
The expense ratio may vary period to period because of various factors, such as an increase in expenses not covered by the advisory and administrative fees (such as expenses of the trustees and their counsel or litigation expense).
Portfolio Benchmark
Lehman Brothers U.S. TIPS Index is an unmanaged market index comprised of all U.S. Treasury Inflation Protected Securities rated investment grade (Baa3 or better), have at least one year to final maturity, and at least $250 million par amount outstanding.

Past performance is no guarantee of future results. The performance quoted represents past performance. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so the Portfolio shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. The Portfolio’s performance does not reflect the deduction of additional charges and expenses imposed in connection with investing in Variable Contracts, which will reduce returns. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. Performance data current to the most recent month-end is available by calling (800) 927-4648.

† Expenses are equal to the Portfolio’s Institutional Class annualized expense ratio of 0.51%, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 181/365 (to reflect the one-half year period). Overall fees and expenses of investing in the Portfolio will be higher because the example does not reflect Variable Contract fees and expenses.

Portfolio Insights
» | | The PIMCO Real Return Portfolio seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing under normal circumstances at least 80% of its net assets in inflation-indexed bonds of varying maturities issued by the U.S. and non-U.S. governments, their agencies or instrumentalities, and corporations. |
» | | For the six-month period ending June 30, 2006, ten-year real yields increased by 0.48%, compared to a 0.82% increase for conventional U.S. Treasury issues of similar maturity. |
» | | The Portfolio’s above benchmark duration for the first three-months of the period detracted from overall performance, as real yields rose on strong U.S. economic growth. The effective duration of the Portfolio was 6.79 years on June 30, 2006 compared to a duration of 6.11 years for the benchmark. |
» | | The Portfolio’s emphasis on U.S. nominal bonds was negative for performance, as nominal yields rose faster than real yields based on higher inflation expectations and the outlook for further Federal Reserve tightening. |
» | | Exposure to short maturity U.S. nominal bonds for the period detracted significantly from performance due to a substantial flattening of the nominal yield curve. |
» | | Currency exposure added to performance resulting from a depreciation of the U.S. dollar relative to the Euro and Japanese Yen. |
» | | Mortgage holdings during the period were positive due to favorable coupon selection, particularly 15-year FNMA 5.0% and 30-year FNMA 5.5% coupons, which outperformed the broader Index. |
» | | Positions in pay-fixed swaps were beneficial with swap spreads mostly widening over the period. |

The Trust is designed to be used as an investment vehicle by Separate Accounts of insurance companies that fund variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies and by qualified pension and retirement plans.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Portfolio in the preparation of its financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Security Valuation. Portfolio securities are valued as of the close of regular trading (normally 4:00 p.m., Eastern Time) on each day that the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) is open. Portfolio securities and other assets for which market quotes are readily available are stated at market value. Market value is generally determined on the basis of last reported sales prices, or if no sales are reported, based on quotes obtained from a quotation reporting system, established market makers, or pricing services. Fixed-income securities and non-exchange traded derivatives are normally valued on the basis of quotes obtained from brokers and dealers or pricing services. Prices obtained from independent pricing services use information provided by market makers or estimates of market values obtained from yield data relating to investments or securities with similar characteristics. Certain fixed-income securities purchased on a delayed-delivery basis are marked to market daily until settlement at the forward settlement date. Short-term investments having a maturity of 60 days or less are generally valued at amortized cost. Exchange traded options, futures and options on futures are valued at the settlement price determined by the relevant exchange.
Investments initially valued in currencies other than the U.S. dollar are converted to the U.S. dollar using exchange rates obtained from pricing services. As a result, the NAV of the Portfolio’s shares may be affected by changes in the value of currencies in relation to the U.S. dollar. The value of securities traded in markets outside the United States or denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar may be affected significantly on a day that the NYSE is closed and an investor is not able to purchase, redeem or exchange shares.
Securities and other assets for which market quotes are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction. The Board of Trustees has adopted methods for valuing securities and other assets in circumstances where market quotes are not readily available, and has delegated to Pacific Investment Management Company LLC (“PIMCO”) the responsibility for applying the valuation methods. In the event that market quotes are not readily available, and the security or asset cannot be valued pursuant to one of the valuation methods, the value of the security or asset will be determined in good faith by the Valuation Committee of the Board of Trustees, generally based upon recommendations provided by PIMCO.
Market quotes are considered not readily available in circumstances where there is an absence of current or reliable market-based data (e.g., trade information, bid/asked information, broker quotes), including where events occur after the close of the relevant market, but prior to the close of regular trading, that materially affect the values of the Portfolio’s securities or assets. In addition, market quotes are considered not readily available when, due to extraordinary circumstances, the exchanges or markets on which the securities trade do not open for trading for the entire day and no other market prices are available. The Board has delegated to PIMCO the responsibility for monitoring significant events that may materially affect the values of the Portfolio’s securities or assets and for determining whether the value of the applicable securities or assets should be re-evaluated in light of such significant events when the Portfolio uses fair value pricing to determine its NAV, securities will not be priced on the basis of quotations from the primary market in which they are traded, but rather may be priced by another method that the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction believe accurately reflects fair value. The Trust’s policy is intended to result in a calculation of the Portfolio’s NAV that fairly reflects security values as of the time of pricing. However, fair values determined by the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction may not accurately reflect the price that the Portfolio could obtain for a security if it were to dispose of that security as of the time of pricing. Because foreign securities can trade on non-business days, the NAV of the Portfolio may change on days when shareholders will not be able to purchase or redeem shares. The prices used by the Portfolio may differ from the value that would be realized if the securities were sold and the differences could be material to the financial statements.
Securities Transactions and Investment Income. Securities transactions are recorded as of the trade date. Securities purchased or sold on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis may be settled a month or more after the trade date. Realized gains and losses from securities sold are recorded on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Portfolio is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, adjusted for the accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis. Paydown gains and losses on mortgage-related or asset-backed securities are recorded as components of interest income in the Statement of Operations.
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends from net investment income, if any, are declared on each day the Portfolio is open for business and are distributed to shareholders monthly. Net realized capital gains earned by the Portfolio, if any, will be distributed no less frequently than once each year. Most shareholders choose to reinvest their dividends and capital gain distribution in additional shares of the Portfolio.
Income dividends and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP. Differences between tax regulations and GAAP may change the fiscal year when income and capital items are recognized for tax and GAAP purposes. Examples of events that give rise to timing differences include wash sales, straddles, net operating losses and capital loss carryforwards. Further, the character of investment income and capital gains may be different for certain transactions under the two methods of accounting. Examples of characterization differences include the treatment of mortgage paydowns, swaps, foreign currency transactions and contingent debt instruments. As a result, income dividends and capital gain distributions declared during a fiscal period may differ significantly from the net investment income and realized capital gain reported in the Portfolio’s annual financial statements presented under GAAP.
Distributions classified as a tax basis return of capital, if any, are reflected in the accompanying Statements of Changes in Net Assets and have been reclassified to
| | | | | | |
| | Semiannual Report | | June 30, 2006 | | 15 |
Notes to Financial Statements (Cont.)
paid in capital. In addition, other amounts have been reclassified between undistributed net investment income, accumulated undistributed net realized gains or losses and/or paid in capital to more appropriately conform financial accounting to tax characterizations of dividend distributions.
Multiclass Operations. Each class offered by the Portfolio has equal rights as to assets and voting privileges (except that shareholders of a class have exclusive voting rights regarding any matter relating solely to that class of shares). Income and non-class specific expenses of the Portfolio are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative value of settled shares. Realized and unrealized capital gains and losses of the Portfolio are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative net assets of each class. Class specific expenses, where applicable, currently include administrative, distribution and servicing fees.
Delayed-Delivery Transactions. The Portfolio may purchase or sell securities on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis. These transactions involve a commitment by the Portfolio to purchase or sell securities for a predetermined price or yield, with payment and delivery taking place beyond the customary settlement period. When delayed-delivery purchases are outstanding, the Portfolio will designate liquid assets in an amount sufficient to meet the purchase price. When purchasing a security on a delayed-delivery basis, the Portfolio assumes the rights and risks of ownership of the security, including the risk of price and yield fluctuations, and takes such fluctuations into account when determining its net asset value. The Portfolio may dispose of or renegotiate a delayed-delivery transaction after it is entered into, and may sell when-issued securities before they are delivered, which may result in a capital gain or loss. When the Portfolio has sold a security on a delayed-delivery basis, the Portfolio does not participate in future gains and losses with respect to the security.
Federal Income Taxes. The Portfolio intends to qualify as a regulated investment company under sub-chapter M of the Internal Revenue Code and distribute all of its taxable income and net realized gains, if applicable, to shareholders. Accordingly, no provision for Federal income taxes has been made.
Foreign Currency. The accounting records of the Portfolio are maintained in U.S. dollar. The market values of foreign securities, currency holdings and other assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollar based on the current exchange rates each business day. Fluctuations in the value of currency holdings and other assets and liabilities resulting from changes in exchange rates are recorded as unrealized foreign currency gains or losses. Realized gains or losses and unrealized appreciation or depreciation on investment securities and income and expenses are translated on the respective dates of such transactions. The effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on investments in securities are not segregated in the Statement of Operations from the effects of changes in market prices of those securities, but are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss on investment securities.

CAD | | Canadian Dollar | | PLN | | Polish Zloty |
EUR | | Euro | | RUB | | Russian Ruble |
GBP | | British Pound | | SKK | | Slovakian Koruna |
JPY | | Japanese Yen | | | | |
Forward Currency Transactions. The Portfolio may enter into forward currency contracts in connection with settling planned purchases or sales of securities, to hedge the currency exposure associated with some or all of the Portfolio’s securities or as a part of an investment strategy. A forward currency contract is an agreement between two parties to buy and sell a currency at a set price on a future date. The market value of a forward currency contract fluctuates with changes in forward currency exchange rates. Forward currency contracts are marked to market daily and the change in value is recorded by the Portfolio as an unrealized gain or loss. Realized gains or losses equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed are recorded upon delivery or receipt of the currency or, if a forward currency contract is offset by entering into another forward currency contract with the same broker, upon settlement of the net gain or loss. These contracts may involve market risk in excess of the unrealized gain or loss reflected in the Portfolio’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities. In addition, the Portfolio could be exposed to risk if the counterparties are unable to meet the terms of the contracts or if the value of the currency changes unfavorably to the U.S. dollar.
Futures Contracts. The Portfolio is authorized to enter into futures contracts. The Portfolio may use futures contracts to manage its exposure to the securities markets or to movements in interest rates and currency values. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are the imperfect correlation between the change in market value of the securities held by the Portfolio and the prices of futures contracts, the possibility of an illiquid market, and the inability of the counterparty to meet the terms of the contract. Futures contracts are valued based upon their quoted daily settlement prices. Upon entering into a futures contract, the Portfolio is required to deposit with its custodian, in a segregated account in the name of the futures broker, an amount of cash or U.S. Government and Agency Obligations in accordance with the initial margin requirements of the broker or exchange. Futures contracts are marked to market daily and an appropriate payable or receivable for the change in value (“variation margin”) is recorded by the Portfolio. Gains or losses are recognized but not considered realized until the contracts expire or are closed. Futures contracts involve, to varying degrees, risk of loss in excess of the variation margin disclosed in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
Inflation-Indexed Bonds. The Portfolio may invest in inflation-indexed bonds. Inflation-indexed bonds are fixed-income securities whose principal value is periodically adjusted to the rate of inflation. The interest rate on these bonds is generally fixed at issuance at a rate lower than typical bonds. Over the life of an inflation-indexed bond, however, interest will be paid based on a principal value, which is adjusted for inflation. Any increase in the principal amount of an inflation-indexed bond will be included as interest income in the Statement of Operations, even though investors do not receive their principal until maturity.
Loan Participant and Assignments. The Portfolio may invest in direct debt instruments which are interests in amounts owned by corporate, governmental, or other borrowers to lenders or lending syndicates. The Portfolio’s investments in loans may be in the form of participations in loans or assignments of all or a portion of loans from third parties. A loan is often administered by a bank or other financial institution (the “lender”) that acts as agent for all holders. Then agent administers the terms of the loan, as specified in the loan agreement. When investing in a loan participation, the Portfolio has the right to receive payments of principal, interest and any fees to which it is entitled only from the lender selling the loan agreement and only upon receipt by the lender of payments from the borrower. The Portfolio generally has no right to enforce compliance with the terms of the loan agreement with the borrower. As a result, the Portfolio may be subject to the credit of both the borrower and the lender that is selling the loan agreement. When the Portfolio purchases assignments from lenders it acquires direct rights against the borrower on the loan. At the end of the period, the Portfolio had no unfunded loan commitments.
Options Contracts. The Portfolio may write call and put options on futures, swaps, securities or currencies it owns or in which it may invest. Writing put options tends to increase the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. Writing call options tends to decrease the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. When the Portfolio writes a call or put option, an amount equal to the
| | | | |
16 | | PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust | | |
| | |
| |
| | June 30, 2006 (Unaudited) |
premium received is recorded as a liability and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the option written. These liabilities are reflected as written options outstanding in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Certain options may be written with premiums to determined on a future date. The premiums for these options are based upon implied volatility parameters at specified terms. Premiums received from writing options which expire are treated as realized gains. Premiums received from writing options which are exercised or closed are added to the proceeds or offset against amounts paid on the underlying future, swap, security or currency transaction to determine the realized gain or loss. The Portfolio as a writer of an option has no control over whether the underlying future, swap, security or currency may be sold (call) or purchased (put) and as a result bears the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the future, swap, security or currency underlying the written option. There is the risk the Portfolio may not be able to enter into a closing transaction because of an illiquid market.
The Portfolio may also purchase put and call options. Purchasing call options tends to increase the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. Purchasing put options tends to decrease the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. The Portfolio pays a premium which is included in the Portfolio’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an investment and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the option. Premiums paid for purchasing options which expire are treated as realized losses. Certain options may be purchased with premiums to be determined on a future date. The premiums for these options are based upon implied volatility parameters at specified terms. The risk associated with purchasing put and call options is limited to the premium paid. Premiums paid for purchasing options which are exercised or closed are added to the amounts paid or offset against the proceeds on the underlying future, swap, security or currency transaction to determine the realized gain or loss.
Repurchase Agreements. The Portfolio may engage in repurchase transactions. Under the terms of a typical repurchase agreement, the Portfolio takes possession of an underlying debt obligation subject to an obligation of the seller to repurchase, and the Portfolio to resell, the obligation at an agreed-upon price and time. The underlying securities for all repurchase agreements are held in safekeeping at the Portfolio’s custodian or designated subcustodians under triparty repurchase agreements. The market value of the collateral must be equal to or exceed at all times the total amount of the repurchase obligations, including interest. Securities purchased under repurchase agreements are reflected as an asset in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Generally, in the event of counterparty default, the Portfolio has the right to use the collateral to offset losses incurred. If the counterparty should default, the Portfolio will seek to sell the securities which it holds as collateral. This could involve procedural costs or delays in addition to a loss on the securities if their value should fall below their repurchase price.
Short Sales. The Portfolio may enter into short sales transactions. A short sale is a transaction in which the Portfolio sells securities it does not own in anticipation of a decline in the market price of the securities. Securities sold in short sale transactions and interest payable on such securities, if any, are reflected as a liability in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The Portfolio is obligated to deliver securities at the market price at the time the short position is closed. Possible losses from short sales may be unlimited, whereas losses from purchases cannot exceed the total amount invested.
Mortgage-Related and Other Asset-Backed Securities. The Portfolio may invest in mortgage-related or other asset-backed securities. These securities include mortgage pass-through securities, collateralized mortgage obligations (“CMOs”), commercial mortgage-backed securities, mortgage dollar rolls, CMO residuals, stripped mortgage-backed securities (“SMBSs”) and other securities
that directly or indirectly represent a participation in, or are secured by and payable from, mortgage loans on real property. The value of some mortgage- or asset-backed securities may be particularly sensitive to changes in prevailing interest rates. Early repayment of principal on some mortgage-related securities may expose the Portfolio to a lower rate of return upon reinvestment of principal. The value of these securities may fluctuate in response to the market’s perception of the creditworthiness of the issuers. Additionally, although mortgages and mortgage-related securities are generally supported by some form of government or private guarantee and/or insurance, there is no assurance that private guarantors or insurers will meet their obligations.
One type of SMBS has one class receiving all of the interest from the mortgage assets (the interest-only, or “IO” class), while the other class will receive all of the principal (the principal-only, or “PO” class). Payments received for IOs are included in interest income in the Statement of Operations. Because principal will not be received at the maturity of an IO, adjustments are made to the book value of the security on a daily basis until maturity. These adjustments are included in interest income in the Statement of Operations. Payments received for POs are treated as reductions to the cost and par value of the securities.
Swap Agreements. The Portfolio may engage in swap transactions, including, but not limited to, swap agreements on interest rate and credit default to manage its exposure to interest rates and credit risk. In connection with these agreements, securities may be identified as collateral in accordance with the terms of the respective swap agreements.
Interest rate swap agreements involve the exchange by the Portfolio with another party of their respective commitments to pay or receive interest, e.g., an exchange of floating rate payments for fixed rate payments with respect to the notional amount of principal.
Credit default swap agreements involve one party making a stream of payments to another party in exchange for the right to receive a specified return in the event of a default by a third party, typically corporate issues or sovereign issues of an emerging country, on its obligation. The Portfolio may use credit default swaps to provide a measure of protection against defaults of the issuers (i.e., to reduce risk where the Portfolio owns or has exposure to the sovereign issuer) or to take an active long or short position with respect to the likelihood of a particular issuer’s default. As a seller of protection, the Portfolio generally receives an upfront payment or a fixed rate of income throughout the term of the swap provided that there is no credit event. If the Portfolio is a seller of protection and a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement, the Portfolio will pay to the buyer of the protection an amount up to the notional value of the swap and in certain instances take delivery of the security. As the seller, the Portfolio would effectively add leverage to its portfolio because, in addition to its total net assets, the Portfolio would be subject to investment exposure on the notional amount of the swap. As a buyer of protection, the Portfolio generally receives an amount up to the notional value of the swap if a credit event occurs. The treatment of a credit default swaps and other swap agreements that provide for contingent, non-periodic, bullet-type payments as “notional principal contracts” for federal income tax purposes is uncertain. Were the Internal Revenue Service in take the position that a credit default swap or other bullet-type swap is not a “notional principal contract” for federal income tax purposes, payments received by the Portfolio from such investments might be subject to income taxes.
Swaps are marked to market daily based upon quotations from market makers and the change in value, if any, is recorded as unrealized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Payments received or made at the beginning of the measurement period are reflected as such in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. These upfront payments are recorded as realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations upon termination or maturity of the swap. A liquidation payment received or made at the termination of the swap is recorded as realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Net periodic payments received by the Portfolio are included as part of realized gain or loss in the Statement of
| | | | | | |

Notes to Financial Statements (Cont.)
Operations. Entering into these agreements involves, to varying degrees, elements of credit, market and documentation risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Such risks involve the possibility that there will be no liquid market for these agreements, that the counterparty to the agreements may default on its obligation to perform or disagree as to the meaning of contractual terms in the agreements and that there may be unfavorable changes in interest rates.
U.S. Government Agencies or Government-Sponsored Enterprises. Securities issued by U.S. Government agencies or government-sponsored enterprises may not be guaranteed by the U.S. Treasury. The Government National Mortgage Association (“GNMA”), a wholly owned U.S. Government corporation, is authorized to guarantee, with the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government, the timely payment of principal and interest on securities issued by institutions approved by GNMA and backed by pools of mortgages insured by the Federal Housing Administration or guaranteed by the Department of Veterans Affairs. Government-related guarantors (i.e., not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government) include the Federal National Mortgage Association (“FNMA” or “Fannie Mae”) and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“FHLMC” or “Freddie Mac”). Pass-through securities issued by FNMA are guaranteed as to timely payment of principal and interest by FNMA but are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government. FHLMC guarantees the timely payment of interest and ultimate collection of principal, but its participation certificates are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government.
Guarantees and Indemnifications. Under the Trust’s organizational documents, each Trustee, officer, employee or other agent of the Trust (including the Trust’s investment manager) is indemnified against certain liabilities that may arise out of performance of their duties to the Portfolio. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Portfolio enters into contracts that contain a variety of indemnification clauses. The Portfolio’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Portfolio that have not yet occurred. However, the Portfolio has not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts, and believes the risk of loss to be remote.
New Accounting Policies. In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes—an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (the “Interpretation”). The Interpretation is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. Management is currently evaluating the application of the Interpretation to the Portfolio and will provide additional information in relation to the Interpretation in the Portfolio’s annual financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2006.
3. FEES, EXPENSES, AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Investment Advisory Fee. PIMCO is a majority-owned subsidiary of Allianz Global Investors of America L.P. (“AGI”), and serves as investment adviser (the “Adviser”) to the Trust, pursuant to an investment advisory contract. The Adviser receives a monthly fee at an annual rate based on average daily net assets of the Portfolio. The Advisory Fee is charged at an annual rate of 0.25%.
Administration Fee. PIMCO serves as administrator (the “Administrator”), and provides administrative services to the Trust for which it receives a monthly administrative fee based on average daily net assets of the Portfolio. As the Administrator, PIMCO bears the costs of various third-party services, including audit, custodial, portfolio accounting, legal, transfer agency and printing costs. The Administration Fee is charged at the annual rate of 0.25%.
Distribution and Servicing Fees. Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC (“AGID”) is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of AGI and serves as the distributor of the Trust’s shares. The Trust is permitted to reimburse AGID on a quarterly basis, out of the Administrative Class assets of the Portfolio in the amount of 0.15% on an annual basis of the average daily net assets of that class, for payments made to financial intermediaries that provide services in connection with the distribution of shares or administration of plans or programs that use Portfolio shares as their funding medium. The effective rate paid to AGID was 0.15% during the current fiscal year.
Expenses. The Trust is responsible for the following expenses: (i) salaries and other compensation of any of the Trust’s executive officers and employees who are not officers, directors, stockholders or employees of PIMCO or its subsidiaries or affiliates; (ii) taxes and governmental fees; (iii) brokerage fees and commissions and other portfolio transaction expenses; (iv) the costs of borrowing money, including interest expenses and bank overdraft charges; (v) fees and expenses of the Trustees who are not “interested persons” of PIMCO or the Trust, and any counsel retained exclusively for their benefit; (vi) extraordinary expenses, including costs of litigation and indemnification expenses; (vii) organization expenses and (viii) any expenses allocated or allocable to a specific class of shares, which include service fees payable with respect to the Administrative Class shares and may include certain other expenses as permitted by the Trust’s Multiple Class Plan adopted pursuant to Rule 18f-3 under the Act and subject to review and approval by the Trustees. The ratio of expenses to average net assets per share class, as disclosed in the Financial Highlights, may differ from the annual portfolio operating expenses per share class as disclosed in the Prospectus for the reasons set forth above.
For the current period ended June 30, 2006, each unaffiliated Trustee received an annual retainer of $15,000, plus $2,000 for each Board of Trustees quarterly meeting attended, $500 for each Board of Trustees committee meeting attended and $500 for each special board meeting attended, plus reimbursement of related expenses. In addition, each Committee Chair received an additional annual retainer of $500 and each Audit Committee Chair received an additional annual retainer of $1,500. These expenses are allocated on a pro-rata basis to each Portfolio of the Trust according to its respective net assets. The Trust pays no compensation directly to any Trustee or any other officer who is affiliated with the Administrator, all of whom receive remuneration for their services to the Trust from the Administrator or its affiliates.
4. PURCHASES AND SALES OF SECURITIES
The length of time the Portfolio has held a particular security is not generally a consideration in investment decisions. A change in the securities held by the Portfolio is known as “portfolio turnover”. The Portfolio may engage in frequent and active trading of portfolio securities to achieve its investment objective, particularly during periods of volatile market movements. High portfolio turnover (e.g., over 100%) involves correspondingly greater expenses to the Portfolio, including brokerage commissions or dealer mark-ups and other transaction costs on the sale of securities and reinvestments in other securities. Such sales may also result in realization of taxable capital gains, including short-term capital gains (which are generally taxed at ordinary income tax rates). The trading costs and tax effects associated with portfolio turnover may adversely affect the Portfolio’s performance.
Purchases and sales of securities (excluding short-term investments) for the period ended June 30, 2006 were as follows (amounts in thousands):

8. REGULATORY AND LITIGATION MATTERS
On June 1, 2004, the Attorney General of the State of New Jersey announced that it had dismissed PIMCO from a complaint filed by the New Jersey Attorney General on February 17, 2004, and that it had entered into a settlement agreement (the “New Jersey Settlement”) with Allianz Global Investors of America L.P. (“AGI”) (formerly known as Allianz Dresdner Asset Management of America L.P.), PEA Capital LLC (an entity affiliated with PIMCO through common ownership) (“PEA”) and Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC (“AGID”), in connection with the same matter. In the New Jersey Settlement, AGI, PEA and AGID neither admitted nor denied the allegations or conclusions of law, but did agree to pay New Jersey a civil fine of $15 million and $3 million for investigative costs and further potential enforcement initiatives against unrelated parties. They also undertook to implement certain governance changes. The complaint relating to the New Jersey Settlement alleged, among other things, that AGI, PEA and AGID had failed to disclose that they improperly allowed certain hedge funds to engage in “market timing” in certain funds. The complaint sought injunctive relief, civil monetary penalties, restitution and disgorgement of profits.
Since February 2004, PIMCO, AGI, PEA, AGID, and certain of their affiliates, including the PIMCO Funds, the Allianz Funds (formerly known as PIMCO Funds: Multi-Manager Series), and the Trustees and employees of the PIMCO Funds, have been named as defendants in fifteen lawsuits filed in various jurisdictions. Eleven of those lawsuits concern “market timing,” and they have been transferred to and consolidated for pre-trial proceedings in a multi-district litigation proceeding in the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland; the other four lawsuits concern “revenue sharing” and have been consolidated into a single action in the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut. The lawsuits have been commenced as putative class actions on behalf of investors who purchased, held or redeemed shares of the various series of the PIMCO Funds and the Allianz Funds during specified periods, or as derivative actions on behalf of the PIMCO Funds and Allianz Funds.
The market timing actions in the District of Maryland generally allege that certain hedge funds were allowed to engage in “market timing” in certain of the PIMCO Funds and the Allianz Funds and this alleged activity was not disclosed. Pursuant to tolling agreements entered into with the derivative and class action plaintiffs, PIMCO, the Trustees, and certain employees of PIMCO who were previously named as defendants have all been dropped as defendants in the market timing actions; the plaintiffs continue to assert claims on behalf of the shareholders of the PIMCO Funds or on behalf of the PIMCO Funds themselves against other defendants. By order dated November 3, 2005, the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland granted the PIMCO Funds’ motion to dismiss claims asserted against it in a consolidated amended complaint where the PIMCO Funds were named, in the complaint, as a nominal defendant. The revenue sharing action in the District of Connecticut generally alleges that fund assets were inappropriately used to pay brokers to promote the PIMCO Funds and Allianz Funds, including directing fund brokerage transactions to such brokers, and that such alleged arrangements were not fully disclosed to shareholders. On August 11, 2005 the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut conducted a hearing on defendants’ motion to dismiss the consolidated amended complaint in the revenue sharing action but has not yet ruled on the motion to dismiss. The market timing and revenue sharing lawsuits seek, among other things, unspecified compensatory damages plus interest and, in some cases, punitive damages, the rescission of investment advisory contracts, the return of fees paid under those contracts and restitution.
Under Section 9(a) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“1940 Act”), if the New Jersey Settlement or any of the lawsuits described above were to result in a court injunction against AGI, PEA, AGID and/or their affiliates, PIMCO could, in the absence of exemptive relief granted by the SEC, be barred from serving as an investment adviser, and AGID could be barred from serving as principal underwriter, to any registered investment company, including the

Notes to Financial Statements (Cont.)
Portfolios of the Trust. In connection with an inquiry from the SEC concerning the status of the New Jersey Settlement under Section 9(a), PEA, AGID, AGI and certain of their affiliates (including PIMCO) (together, the “Applicants”) have sought exemptive relief from the SEC under Section 9(c) of the 1940 Act. The SEC has granted the Applicants a temporary exemption from the provisions of Section 9(a) with respect to the New Jersey Settlement until the earlier of (i) September 13, 2006 and (ii) the date on which the SEC takes final action on their application for a permanent order. There is no assurance that the SEC will issue a permanent order.
Two nearly identical class action civil complaints have been filed in August 2005, in the Northern District of Illinois Eastern Division alleging that the plaintiffs each purchased and sold a 10-year Treasury note futures contract and suffered damages from an alleged shortage when PIMCO held both physical and futures positions in 10-year Treasury notes for its client accounts. The two actions have been consolidated into one action, and the two separate complaints have been replaced by a consolidated complaint. PIMCO is a named defendant, and the PIMCO Funds have been added as a defendant, to the consolidated action. PIMCO strongly believes the complaint (and any consolidated complaint filed hereafter) is without merit and intends to vigorously defend itself.
Certain Portfolios of the Trust were recently served in an adversary proceeding brought by the Official Committee of Asbestos Claimants of G-I Holdings, Inc. in G-I Holdings, Inc.’s bankruptcy in the District of New Jersey. PIMCO was previously named in this lawsuit and remains a defendant. The plaintiff seeks to recover for the bankruptcy estate assets that were transferred by the predecessor entity of G-I Holdings, Inc. to a wholly-owned subsidiary in 1994. The subsidiary has since issued notes, of which certain Portfolios of the Trust are alleged to be holders. The complaint alleges that in 2000, more than two hundred noteholders—including certain Portfolios of the Trust—were granted a second priority lien on the assets of the subsidiary in exchange for their consent to a refinancing transaction and the granting of a first priority lien to the lending banks. The plaintiff is seeking invalidation of the lien in favor of the noteholders and/or the value of the lien.
It is possible that these matters and/or other developments resulting from these matters could result in increased fund redemptions or other adverse consequences to the Portfolios. However, PIMCO and AGID believe that these matters are not likely to have a material adverse effect on the Portfolios or on PIMCO’s or AGID’s ability to perform their respective investment advisory or distribution services relating to the Portfolios.

Chairman’s Letter
Dear PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust Shareholder:
It is our pleasure to present to you the semiannual report for the PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust covering the six-month period ended June 30, 2006.
Highlights of the global bond markets during the six-month period included:
| n | | Most fixed-income sectors lost ground during the first half of 2006, as concern about accelerating inflation and central bank tightening pushed interest rates higher worldwide. The benchmark Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index (which includes Treasury, Investment-Grade Corporate, and Residential Mortgage-Backed Securities) returned -0.72% for the first six months of the year. On June 30, the benchmark ten-year Treasury yielded 5.14%, 0.75% higher than at the start of the year. The U.S. yield curve remained flat as shorter-maturity yields rose by a comparable amount. |
| n | | The Federal Reserve tightened four times during the reporting period, bringing the Federal Funds Rate to 5.25%. The increase near the end of the period was the Federal Reserve’s 17th consecutive rate hike since the start of its tightening cycle in 2004. The Federal Reserve was not alone, as central banks in Europe, India, and China tightened credit in unison for the first time since 2000. The Bank of Japan, whose zero-interest-rate policy has flooded global markets with liquidity, looked set to reverse this policy in the coming months. |
In these pages please find a more complete Portfolio review as it relates to financial-market activities, as well as details about total-return investment performance for the six-month reporting period. Thank you for the trust you have placed in us. We will continue to work diligently to meet your investment needs.
Sincerely,

Brent R. Harris
Chairman, PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust

Important Information About the Portfolio
PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust (the “Trust”) is an open-end management investment company currently consisting of nineteen separate investment portfolios, including the Real Return Portfolio (the “Portfolio”). The Portfolio is only available as a funding vehicle under variable life insurance policies or variable annuity contracts issued by insurance companies (“Variable Contracts”). Individuals may not purchase shares of the Portfolio directly. Shares of the Portfolio also may be sold to qualified pension and retirement plans outside of the separate account context.
We believe that bond funds have an important role to play in a well diversified investment portfolio. It is important to note, however, that in an environment where interest rates may trend upward, rising rates would negatively impact the performance of most bond funds, and fixed-income securities held by a fund are likely to decrease in value. The price volatility of fixed-income securities can also increase during periods of rising interest rates resulting in increased losses to a fund. Bond funds and individual bonds with a longer duration (a measure of the expected life of a security) tend to be more sensitive to changes in interest rates, usually making them more volatile than securities or funds with shorter durations. The longer-term performance of most bond funds has benefited from capital gains in part resulting from an extended period of declining interest rates. In the event interest rates increase, these capital gains should not be expected to recur.
The Portfolio may be subject to various risks in addition to those described above. Some of these risks may include, but are not limited to, the following: credit risk, high yield risk, market risk, issuer risk, liquidity risk, derivatives risk, mortgage risk, non-U.S. investment risk, currency risk, issuer non-diversification risk, leveraging risk and management risk. A complete description of these risks is contained in the Portfolio’s prospectus. The Portfolio may use derivative instruments for hedging purposes or as part of an investment strategy. Use of these instruments may involve certain costs and risks such as liquidity risk, interest rate risk, market risk, credit risk, management risk and the risk that the Portfolio could not close out a position when it would be most advantageous to do so. A Portfolio investing in derivatives could lose more than the principal amount invested in these instruments. Investing in non-U.S. securities may entail risk due to non-U.S. economic and political developments; this risk may be increased when investing in emerging markets.
On the performance summary page in this Semiannual Report, the Total Return Investment Performance table measures performance assuming that all dividend and capital gain distributions were reinvested.
An investment in the Portfolio is not a deposit of a bank and is not guaranteed or insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. It is possible to lose money on investments in the Portfolio.
PIMCO has adopted written proxy voting policies and procedures (“Proxy Policy”) as required by Rule 206(4)-6 under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940. The Proxy Policy has been adopted by the Trust as the policies and procedures that PIMCO will use when voting proxies on behalf of the Portfolio. Copies of the written Proxy Policy and the factors that PIMCO may consider in determining how to vote proxies for the Portfolio, and information about how the Portfolio voted proxies relating to portfolio securities held during the most recent twelve-month period ended June 30, are available without charge, upon request, by calling the Trust at 1-866-746-2606 and on the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) website at http://www.sec.gov.
The Portfolio files its complete schedule of portfolio holdings with the SEC for the first and third quarters of each fiscal year on Form N-Q. A copy of the Trust’s Form N-Q is available on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov and may be reviewed and copied at the SEC’s Public Reference Room in Washington D.C. Information on the operation of the Public Reference Room may be obtained by calling 1-800-SEC-0330.
PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust is distributed by Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC, 2187 Atlantic Street, Stamford, CT 06902.

The following disclosure provides important information regarding the Portfolio’s Expense Example (“Example” or “Expense Example”), which appears in this Semiannual Report. Please refer to this information when reviewing the Expense Example for the Portfolio.
Example
As a shareholder of the Portfolio, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs and (2) ongoing costs, including advisory and administrative fees; distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees (Administrative Class only); and other Portfolio expenses. The Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Portfolio and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Expense Example does not reflect any fees or other expenses imposed by the Variable Contracts. If it did, the expenses reflected in the Expense Examples would be higher. The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period indicated, which is from January 1, 2006 to June 30, 2006.
Actual Expenses
The information in the table under the heading “Actual Performance” provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in these columns, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.60), then multiply the result by the number in the appropriate column for your share class, in the row titled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The information in the table under the heading “Hypothetical Performance (5% return before expenses)” provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Portfolio’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Portfolio’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Portfolio and other portfolios. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other portfolios.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs. Therefore, the information under the heading “Hypothetical Performance (5% return before expenses)” is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different portfolios. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.
The expense ratio may vary period to period because of various factors, such as an increase in expenses not covered by the advisory and administrative fees (such as expenses of the trustees and their counsel or litigation expense).
Portfolio Benchmark
Lehman Brothers U.S. TIPS Index is an unmanaged market index comprised of all U.S. Treasury Inflation Protected Securities rated investment grade (Baa3 or better), have at least one year to final maturity, and at least $250 million par amount outstanding.

Past performance is no guarantee of future results. The performance quoted represents past performance. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that Fund shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. The Portfolio’s performance does not reflect the deduction of additional charges and expenses imposed in connection with investing in Variable Contracts, which will reduce returns. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. Performance data current to the most recent month-end is available by calling (800) 927-4648.

† Expenses are equal to the Portfolio’s Advisor Class annualized expense ratio of 0.75%, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 123/365 (to reflect the period since the Portfolio’s Advisor Class shares commenced operations on 02/28/06). Overall fees and expenses of investing in the Portfolio will be higher because the example does not reflect Variable Contract fees and expenses.
Please refer to page 3 herein for a description of the Portfolio’s benchmark and an explanation of the information presented in the above Expense Example.
Portfolio Insights
» | | The PIMCO Real Return Portfolio seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing under normal circumstances at least 80% of its net assets in inflation-indexed bonds of varying maturities issued by the U.S. and non-U.S. governments, their agencies or instrumentalities, and corporations. |
» | | For the six-month period ending June 30, 2006, ten-year real yields increased by 0.48%, compared to a 0.82% increase for conventional U.S. Treasury issues of similar maturity. |
» | | The Portfolio’s above benchmark duration for the first three-months of the period detracted from overall performance, as real yields rose on strong U.S. economic growth. The effective duration of the Portfolio was 6.79 years on June 30, 2006 compared to a duration of 6.11 years for the benchmark. |
» | | The Portfolio’s emphasis on U.S. nominal bonds was negative for performance, as nominal yields rose faster than real yields based on higher inflation expectations and the outlook for further Federal Reserve tightening. |
» | | Exposure to short maturity U.S. nominal bonds for the period detracted significantly from performance due to a substantial flattening of the nominal yield curve. |
» | | Currency exposure added to performance resulting from a depreciation of the U.S. dollar relative to the Euro and Japanese Yen. |
» | | Mortgage holdings during the period were positive due to favorable coupon selection, particularly 15-year FNMA 5.0% and 30-year FNMA 5.5% coupons, which outperformed the broader Index. |
» | | Positions in pay-fixed swaps were beneficial with swap spreads mostly widening over the period. |

Notes to Financial Statements | | June 30, 2006 (Unaudited) |
1. ORGANIZATION
The Real Return Portfolio (the “Portfolio”) is a series of the PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust (the “Trust”). The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “Act”), as amended, as an open-end investment management company organized as a Delaware business trust on October 3, 1997. The Portfolio offers three classes of shares: Institutional, Administrative and Advisor. Information presented in these financial statements pertains to the Advisor Class of the Portfolio. Certain detailed financial information for the Institutional Class and Administrative Class is provided separately and is available upon request. The Trust is designed to be used as an investment vehicle by Separate Accounts of insurance companies that fund variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies and by qualified pension and retirement plans.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Portfolio in the preparation of its financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Security Valuation. Portfolio securities are valued as of the close of regular trading (normally 4:00 p.m., Eastern Time) on each day that the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) is open. Portfolio securities and other assets for which market quotes are readily available are stated at market value. Market value is generally determined on the basis of last reported sales prices, or if no sales are reported, based on quotes obtained from a quotation reporting system, established market makers, or pricing services. Fixed-income securities and non-exchange traded derivatives are normally valued on the basis of quotes obtained from brokers and dealers or pricing services. Prices obtained from independent pricing services use information provided by market makers or estimates of market values obtained from yield data relating to investments or securities with similar characteristics. Certain fixed-income securities purchased on a delayed-delivery basis are marked to market daily until settlement at the forward settlement date. Short-term investments having a maturity of 60 days or less are generally valued at amortized cost. Exchange traded options, futures and options on futures are valued at the settlement price determined by the relevant exchange.
Investments initially valued in currencies other than the U.S. dollar are converted to the U.S. dollar using exchange rates obtained from pricing services. As a result, the NAV of the Portfolio’s shares may be affected by changes in the value of currencies in relation to the U.S. dollar. The value of securities traded in markets outside the United States or denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar may be affected significantly on a day that the NYSE is closed and an investor is not able to purchase, redeem or exchange shares.
Securities and other assets for which market quotes are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction. The Board of Trustees has adopted methods for valuing securities and other assets in circumstances where market quotes are not readily available, and has delegated to Pacific Investment Management Company LLC (“PIMCO”) the responsibility for applying the valuation methods. In the event that market quotes are not readily available, and the security or asset cannot be valued pursuant to one of the valuation methods, the value of the security or asset will be determined in good faith by the Valuation Committee of the Board of Trustees, generally based upon recommendations provided by PIMCO.
Market quotes are considered not readily available in circumstances where there is an absence of current or reliable market-based data (e.g., trade information, bid/asked information, broker quotes), including where events occur after the close of the relevant market, but prior to the close of regular trading, that materially affect the values of the Portfolio’s securities or assets. In addition, market quotes are considered not readily available when, due to extraordinary circumstances, the exchanges or markets on which the securities trade do not open for trading for the entire day and no other market prices are available. The Board has delegated to PIMCO the responsibility for monitoring significant events that may materially affect the values of the Portfolio’s securities or assets and for determining whether the value of the applicable securities or assets should be re-evaluated in light of such significant events when the Portfolio uses fair value pricing to determine its NAV, securities will not be priced on the basis of quotations from the primary market in which they are traded, but rather may be priced by another method that the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction believe accurately reflects fair value. The Trust’s policy is intended to result in a calculation of the Portfolio’s NAV that fairly reflects security values as of the time of pricing. However, fair values determined by the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction may not accurately reflect the price that the Portfolio could obtain for a security if it were to dispose of that security as of the time of pricing. Because foreign securities can trade on non-business days, the NAV of the Portfolio may change on days when shareholders will not be able to purchase or redeem shares. The prices used by the Portfolio may differ from the value that would be realized if the securities were sold and the differences could be material to the financial statements.
Securities Transactions and Investment Income. Securities transactions are recorded as of the trade date. Securities purchased or sold on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis may be settled a month or more after the trade date. Realized gains and losses from securities sold are recorded on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Portfolio is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, adjusted for the accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis. Paydown gains and losses on mortgage-related or asset-backed securities are recorded as components of interest income in the Statement of Operations.
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends from net investment income, if any, are declared on each day the Portfolio is open for business and are distributed to shareholders monthly. Net realized capital gains earned by the Portfolio, if any, will be distributed no less frequently than once each year. Most shareholders choose to reinvest their dividends and capital gain distribution in additional shares of the Portfolio.
Income dividends and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP. Differences between tax regulations and GAAP may change the fiscal year when income and capital items are recognized for tax and GAAP purposes. Examples of events that give rise to timing differences include wash sales, straddles, net operating losses and capital loss carryforwards. Further, the character of investment income and capital gains may be different for certain transactions under the two methods of accounting. Examples of characterization differences include the treatment of mortgage paydowns, swaps, foreign currency transactions and contingent debt instruments. As a result, income dividends and capital gain distributions declared during a fiscal period may differ significantly from the net investment income and realized capital gain reported in the Portfolio’s annual financial statements presented under GAAP.
Distributions classified as a tax basis return of capital, if any, are reflected in the accompanying Statements of Changes in Net Assets and have been reclassified to
| | | | | | |
| | Semiannual Report | | June 30, 2006 | | 15 |
Notes to Financial Statements (Cont.)
paid in capital. In addition, other amounts have been reclassified between undistributed net investment income, accumulated undistributed net realized gains or losses and/or paid in capital to more appropriately conform financial accounting to tax characterizations of dividend distributions.
Multiclass Operations. Each class offered by the Portfolio has equal rights as to assets and voting privileges (except that shareholders of a class have exclusive voting rights regarding any matter relating solely to that class of shares). Income and non-class specific expenses of the Portfolio are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative value of settled shares. Realized and unrealized capital gains and losses of the Portfolio are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative net assets of each class. Class specific expenses, where applicable, currently include administrative, distribution and servicing fees.
Delayed-Delivery Transactions. The Portfolio may purchase or sell securities on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis. These transactions involve a commitment by the Portfolio to purchase or sell securities for a predetermined price or yield, with payment and delivery taking place beyond the customary settlement period. When delayed-delivery purchases are outstanding, the Portfolio will designate liquid assets in an amount sufficient to meet the purchase price. When purchasing a security on a delayed-delivery basis, the Portfolio assumes the rights and risks of ownership of the security, including the risk of price and yield fluctuations, and takes such fluctuations into account when determining its net asset value. The Portfolio may dispose of or renegotiate a delayed-delivery transaction after it is entered into, and may sell when-issued securities before they are delivered, which may result in a capital gain or loss. When the Portfolio has sold a security on a delayed-delivery basis, the Portfolio does not participate in future gains and losses with respect to the security.
Federal Income Taxes. The Portfolio intends to qualify as a regulated investment company under sub-chapter M of the Internal Revenue Code and distribute all of its taxable income and net realized gains, if applicable, to shareholders. Accordingly, no provision for Federal income taxes has been made.
Foreign Currency. The accounting records of the Portfolio are maintained in U.S. dollar. The market values of foreign securities, currency holdings and other assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollar based on the current exchange rates each business day. Fluctuations in the value of currency holdings and other assets and liabilities resulting from changes in exchange rates are recorded as unrealized foreign currency gains or losses. Realized gains or losses and unrealized appreciation or depreciation on investment securities and income and expenses are translated on the respective dates of such transactions. The effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on investments in securities are not segregated in the Statement of Operations from the effects of changes in market prices of those securities, but are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss on investment securities.

CAD | | Canadian Dollar | | PLN | | Polish Zloty |
EUR | | Euro | | RUB | | Russian Ruble |
GBP | | British Pound | | SKK | | Slovakian Koruna |
JPY | | Japanese Yen | | | | |
Forward Currency Transactions. The Portfolio may enter into forward currency contracts in connection with settling planned purchases or sales of securities, to hedge the currency exposure associated with some or all of the Portfolio’s securities or as a part of an investment strategy. A forward currency contract is an agreement between two parties to buy and sell a currency at a set price on a future date. The market value of a forward currency contract fluctuates with changes in forward currency exchange rates. Forward currency contracts are marked to market daily and the change in value is recorded by the Portfolio as an unrealized gain or loss. Realized gains or losses equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed are recorded upon delivery or receipt of the currency or, if a forward currency contract is offset by entering into another forward currency contract with the same broker, upon settlement of the net gain or loss. These contracts may involve market risk in excess of the unrealized gain or loss reflected in the Portfolio’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities. In addition, the Portfolio could be exposed to risk if the counterparties are unable to meet the terms of the contracts or if the value of the currency changes unfavorably to the U.S. dollar.
Futures Contracts. The Portfolio is authorized to enter into futures contracts. The Portfolio may use futures contracts to manage its exposure to the securities markets or to movements in interest rates and currency values. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are the imperfect correlation between the change in market value of the securities held by the Portfolio and the prices of futures contracts, the possibility of an illiquid market, and the inability of the counterparty to meet the terms of the contract. Futures contracts are valued based upon their quoted daily settlement prices. Upon entering into a futures contract, the Portfolio is required to deposit with its custodian, in a segregated account in the name of the futures broker, an amount of cash or U.S. Government and Agency Obligations in accordance with the initial margin requirements of the broker or exchange. Futures contracts are marked to market daily and an appropriate payable or receivable for the change in value (“variation margin”) is recorded by the Portfolio. Gains or losses are recognized but not considered realized until the contracts expire or are closed. Futures contracts involve, to varying degrees, risk of loss in excess of the variation margin disclosed in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
Inflation-Indexed Bonds. The Portfolio may invest in inflation-indexed bonds. Inflation-indexed bonds are fixed-income securities whose principal value is periodically adjusted to the rate of inflation. The interest rate on these bonds is generally fixed at issuance at a rate lower than typical bonds. Over the life of an inflation-indexed bond, however, interest will be paid based on a principal value, which is adjusted for inflation. Any increase in the principal amount of an inflation-indexed bond will be included as interest income in the Statement of Operations, even though investors do not receive their principal until maturity.
Loan Participant and Assignments. The Portfolio may invest in direct debt instruments which are interests in amounts owned by corporate, governmental, or other borrowers to lenders or lending syndicates. The Portfolio’s investments in loans may be in the form of participations in loans or assignments of all or a portion of loans from third parties. A loan is often administered by a bank or other financial institution (the “lender”) that acts as agent for all holders. Then agent administers the terms of the loan, as specified in the loan agreement. When investing in a loan participation, the Portfolio has the right to receive payments of principal, interest and any fees to which it is entitled only from the lender selling the loan agreement and only upon receipt by the lender of payments from the borrower. The Portfolio generally has no right to enforce compliance with the terms of the loan agreement with the borrower. As a result, the Portfolio may be subject to the credit of both the borrower and the lender that is selling the loan agreement. When the Portfolio purchases assignments from lenders it acquires direct rights against the borrower on the loan. At the end of the period, the Portfolio had no unfunded loan commitments.
Options Contracts. The Portfolio may write call and put options on futures, swaps, securities or currencies it owns or in which it may invest. Writing put options tends to increase the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. Writing call options tends to decrease the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. When the Portfolio writes a call or put option, an amount equal to the

premium received is recorded as a liability and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the option written. These liabilities are reflected as written options outstanding in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Certain options may be written with premiums to determined on a future date. The premiums for these options are based upon implied volatility parameters at specified terms. Premiums received from writing options which expire are treated as realized gains. Premiums received from writing options which are exercised or closed are added to the proceeds or offset against amounts paid on the underlying future, swap, security or currency transaction to determine the realized gain or loss. The Portfolio as a writer of an option has no control over whether the underlying future, swap, security or currency may be sold (call) or purchased (put) and as a result bears the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the future, swap, security or currency underlying the written option. There is the risk the Portfolio may not be able to enter into a closing transaction because of an illiquid market.
The Portfolio may also purchase put and call options. Purchasing call options tends to increase the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. Purchasing put options tends to decrease the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. The Portfolio pays a premium which is included in the Portfolio’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an investment and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the option. Premiums paid for purchasing options which expire are treated as realized losses. Certain options may be purchased with premiums to be determined on a future date. The premiums for these options are based upon implied volatility parameters at specified terms. The risk associated with purchasing put and call options is limited to the premium paid. Premiums paid for purchasing options which are exercised or closed are added to the amounts paid or offset against the proceeds on the underlying future, swap, security or currency transaction to determine the realized gain or loss.
Repurchase Agreements. The Portfolio may engage in repurchase transactions. Under the terms of a typical repurchase agreement, the Portfolio takes possession of an underlying debt obligation subject to an obligation of the seller to repurchase, and the Portfolio to resell, the obligation at an agreed-upon price and time. The underlying securities for all repurchase agreements are held in safekeeping at the Portfolio’s custodian or designated subcustodians under triparty repurchase agreements. The market value of the collateral must be equal to or exceed at all times the total amount of the repurchase obligations, including interest. Securities purchased under repurchase agreements are reflected as an asset in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Generally, in the event of counterparty default, the Portfolio has the right to use the collateral to offset losses incurred. If the counterparty should default, the Portfolio will seek to sell the securities which it holds as collateral. This could involve procedural costs or delays in addition to a loss on the securities if their value should fall below their repurchase price.
Short Sales. The Portfolio may enter into short sales transactions. A short sale is a transaction in which the Portfolio sells securities it does not own in anticipation of a decline in the market price of the securities. Securities sold in short sale transactions and interest payable on such securities, if any, are reflected as a liability in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The Portfolio is obligated to deliver securities at the market price at the time the short position is closed. Possible losses from short sales may be unlimited, whereas losses from purchases cannot exceed the total amount invested.
Mortgage-Related and Other Asset-Backed Securities. The Portfolio may invest in mortgage-related or other asset-backed securities. These securities include mortgage pass-through securities, collateralized mortgage obligations (“CMOs”), commercial mortgage-backed securities, mortgage dollar rolls, CMO residuals, stripped mortgage-backed securities (“SMBSs”) and other securities
that directly or indirectly represent a participation in, or are secured by and payable from, mortgage loans on real property. The value of some mortgage- or asset-backed securities may be particularly sensitive to changes in prevailing interest rates. Early repayment of principal on some mortgage-related securities may expose the Portfolio to a lower rate of return upon reinvestment of principal. The value of these securities may fluctuate in response to the market’s perception of the creditworthiness of the issuers. Additionally, although mortgages and mortgage-related securities are generally supported by some form of government or private guarantee and/or insurance, there is no assurance that private guarantors or insurers will meet their obligations.
One type of SMBS has one class receiving all of the interest from the mortgage assets (the interest-only, or “IO” class), while the other class will receive all of the principal (the principal-only, or “PO” class). Payments received for IOs are included in interest income in the Statement of Operations. Because principal will not be received at the maturity of an IO, adjustments are made to the book value of the security on a daily basis until maturity. These adjustments are included in interest income in the Statement of Operations. Payments received for POs are treated as reductions to the cost and par value of the securities.
Swap Agreements. The Portfolio may engage in swap transactions, including, but not limited to, swap agreements on interest rate and credit default to manage its exposure to interest rates and credit risk. In connection with these agreements, securities may be identified as collateral in accordance with the terms of the respective swap agreements.
Interest rate swap agreements involve the exchange by the Portfolio with another party of their respective commitments to pay or receive interest, e.g., an exchange of floating rate payments for fixed rate payments with respect to the notional amount of principal.
Credit default swap agreements involve one party making a stream of payments to another party in exchange for the right to receive a specified return in the event of a default by a third party, typically corporate issues or sovereign issues of an emerging country, on its obligation. The Portfolio may use credit default swaps to provide a measure of protection against defaults of the issuers (i.e., to reduce risk where the Portfolio owns or has exposure to the sovereign issuer) or to take an active long or short position with respect to the likelihood of a particular issuer’s default. As a seller of protection, the Portfolio generally receives an upfront payment or a fixed rate of income throughout the term of the swap provided that there is no credit event. If the Portfolio is a seller of protection and a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement, the Portfolio will pay to the buyer of the protection an amount up to the notional value of the swap and in certain instances take delivery of the security. As the seller, the Portfolio would effectively add leverage to its portfolio because, in addition to its total net assets, the Portfolio would be subject to investment exposure on the notional amount of the swap. As a buyer of protection, the Portfolio generally receives an amount up to the notional value of the swap if a credit event occurs. The treatment of a credit default swaps and other swap agreements that provide for contingent, non-periodic, bullet-type payments as “notional principal contracts” for federal income tax purposes is uncertain. Were the Internal Revenue Service in take the position that a credit default swap or other bullet-type swap is not a “notional principal contract” for federal income tax purposes, payments received by the Portfolio from such investments might be subject to income taxes.
Swaps are marked to market daily based upon quotations from market makers and the change in value, if any, is recorded as unrealized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Payments received or made at the beginning of the measurement period are reflected as such in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. These upfront payments are recorded as realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations upon termination or maturity of the swap. A liquidation payment received or made at the termination of the swap is recorded as realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Net periodic payments received by the Portfolio are included as part of realized gain or loss in the Statement of

Notes to Financial Statements (Cont.)
Operations. Entering into these agreements involves, to varying degrees, elements of credit, market and documentation risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Such risks involve the possibility that there will be no liquid market for these agreements, that the counterparty to the agreements may default on its obligation to perform or disagree as to the meaning of contractual terms in the agreements and that there may be unfavorable changes in interest rates.
U.S. Government Agencies or Government-Sponsored Enterprises. Securities issued by U.S. Government agencies or government-sponsored enterprises may not be guaranteed by the U.S. Treasury. The Government National Mortgage Association (“GNMA”), a wholly owned U.S. Government corporation, is authorized to guarantee, with the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government, the timely payment of principal and interest on securities issued by institutions approved by GNMA and backed by pools of mortgages insured by the Federal Housing Administration or guaranteed by the Department of Veterans Affairs. Government-related guarantors (i.e., not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government) include the Federal National Mortgage Association (“FNMA” or “Fannie Mae”) and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“FHLMC” or “Freddie Mac”). Pass-through securities issued by FNMA are guaranteed as to timely payment of principal and interest by FNMA but are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government. FHLMC guarantees the timely payment of interest and ultimate collection of principal, but its participation certificates are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government.
Guarantees and Indemnifications. Under the Trust’s organizational documents, each Trustee, officer, employee or other agent of the Trust (including the Trust’s investment manager) is indemnified against certain liabilities that may arise out of performance of their duties to the Portfolio. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Portfolio enters into contracts that contain a variety of indemnification clauses. The Portfolio’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Portfolio that have not yet occurred. However, the Portfolio has not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts, and believes the risk of loss to be remote.
New Accounting Policies. In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes—an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (the “Interpretation”). The Interpretation is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. Management is currently evaluating the application of the Interpretation to the Portfolio and will provide additional information in relation to the Interpretation in the Portfolio’s annual financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2006.
3. FEES, EXPENSES, AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Investment Advisory Fee. PIMCO is a majority-owned subsidiary of Allianz Global Investors of America L.P. (“AGI”), and serves as investment adviser (the “Adviser”) to the Trust, pursuant to an investment advisory contract. The Adviser receives a monthly fee at an annual rate based on average daily net assets of the Portfolio. The Advisory Fee is charged at an annual rate of 0.25%.
Administration Fee. PIMCO serves as administrator (the “Administrator”), and provides administrative services to the Trust for which it receives a monthly administrative fee based on average daily net assets of the Portfolio. As the Administrator, PIMCO bears the costs of various third-party services, including audit, custodial, portfolio accounting, legal, transfer agency and printing costs. The Administration Fee is charged at the annual rate of 0.25%.
Distribution and Servicing Fees. Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC (“AGID”) is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of AGI and serves as the distributor of the Trust’s shares. The Trust is permitted to reimburse AGID on a quarterly basis, out of the Administrative Class assets of the Portfolio in the amount of 0.15% on an annual basis of the average daily net assets of that class, for payments made to financial intermediaries that provide services in connection with the distribution of shares or administration of plans or programs that use Portfolio shares as their funding medium. The effective rate paid to AGID was 0.15% during the current fiscal year.
Expenses. The Trust is responsible for the following expenses: (i) salaries and other compensation of any of the Trust’s executive officers and employees who are not officers, directors, stockholders or employees of PIMCO or its subsidiaries or affiliates; (ii) taxes and governmental fees; (iii) brokerage fees and commissions and other portfolio transaction expenses; (iv) the costs of borrowing money, including interest expenses and bank overdraft charges; (v) fees and expenses of the Trustees who are not “interested persons” of PIMCO or the Trust, and any counsel retained exclusively for their benefit; (vi) extraordinary expenses, including costs of litigation and indemnification expenses; (vii) organization expenses and (viii) any expenses allocated or allocable to a specific class of shares, which include service fees payable with respect to the Administrative Class shares and may include certain other expenses as permitted by the Trust’s Multiple Class Plan adopted pursuant to Rule 18f-3 under the Act and subject to review and approval by the Trustees. The ratio of expenses to average net assets per share class, as disclosed in the Financial Highlights, may differ from the annual portfolio operating expenses per share class as disclosed in the Prospectus for the reasons set forth above.
For the current period ended June 30, 2006, each unaffiliated Trustee received an annual retainer of $15,000, plus $2,000 for each Board of Trustees quarterly meeting attended, $500 for each Board of Trustees committee meeting attended and $500 for each special board meeting attended, plus reimbursement of related expenses. In addition, each Committee Chair received an additional annual retainer of $500 and each Audit Committee Chair received an additional annual retainer of $1,500. These expenses are allocated on a pro-rata basis to each Portfolio of the Trust according to its respective net assets. The Trust pays no compensation directly to any Trustee or any other officer who is affiliated with the Administrator, all of whom receive remuneration for their services to the Trust from the Administrator or its affiliates.
4. PURCHASES AND SALES OF SECURITIES
The length of time the Portfolio has held a particular security is not generally a consideration in investment decisions. A change in the securities held by the Portfolio is known as “portfolio turnover”. The Portfolio may engage in frequent and active trading of portfolio securities to achieve its investment objective, particularly during periods of volatile market movements. High portfolio turnover (e.g., over 100%) involves correspondingly greater expenses to the Portfolio, including brokerage commissions or dealer mark-ups and other transaction costs on the sale of securities and reinvestments in other securities. Such sales may also result in realization of taxable capital gains, including short-term capital gains (which are generally taxed at ordinary income tax rates). The trading costs and tax effects associated with portfolio turnover may adversely affect the Portfolio’s performance.
Purchases and sales of securities (excluding short-term investments) for the period ended June 30, 2006 were as follows (amounts in thousands):

$ 15,040 | | $ (2,474) | | $ 12,566 |
8. REGULATORY AND LITIGATION MATTERS
On June 1, 2004, the Attorney General of the State of New Jersey announced that it had dismissed PIMCO from a complaint filed by the New Jersey Attorney General on February 17, 2004, and that it had entered into a settlement agreement (the “New Jersey Settlement”) with Allianz Global Investors of America L.P. (“AGI”) (formerly known as Allianz Dresdner Asset Management of America L.P.), PEA Capital LLC (an entity affiliated with PIMCO through common ownership) (“PEA”) and Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC (“AGID”), in connection with the same matter. In the New Jersey Settlement, AGI, PEA and AGID neither admitted nor denied the allegations or conclusions of law, but did agree to pay New Jersey a civil fine of $15 million and $3 million for investigative costs and further potential enforcement initiatives against unrelated parties. They also undertook to implement certain governance changes. The complaint relating to the New Jersey Settlement alleged, among other things, that AGI, PEA and AGID had failed to disclose that they improperly allowed certain hedge funds to engage in “market timing” in certain funds. The complaint sought injunctive relief, civil monetary penalties, restitution and disgorgement of profits.
Since February 2004, PIMCO, AGI, PEA, AGID, and certain of their affiliates, including the PIMCO Funds, the Allianz Funds (formerly known as PIMCO Funds: Multi-Manager Series), and the Trustees and employees of the PIMCO Funds, have been named as defendants in fifteen lawsuits filed in various jurisdictions. Eleven of those lawsuits concern “market timing,” and they have been transferred to and consolidated for pre-trial proceedings in a multi-district litigation proceeding in the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland; the other four lawsuits concern “revenue sharing” and have been consolidated into a single action in the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut. The lawsuits have been commenced as putative class actions on behalf of investors who purchased, held or redeemed shares of the various series of the PIMCO Funds and the Allianz Funds during specified periods, or as derivative actions on behalf of the PIMCO Funds and Allianz Funds.
The market timing actions in the District of Maryland generally allege that certain hedge funds were allowed to engage in “market timing” in certain of the PIMCO Funds and the Allianz Funds and this alleged activity was not disclosed. Pursuant to tolling agreements entered into with the derivative and class action plaintiffs, PIMCO, the Trustees, and certain employees of PIMCO who were previously named as defendants have all been dropped as defendants in the market timing actions; the plaintiffs continue to assert claims on behalf of the shareholders of the PIMCO Funds or on behalf of the PIMCO Funds themselves against other defendants. By order dated November 3, 2005, the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland granted the PIMCO Funds’ motion to dismiss claims asserted against it in a consolidated amended complaint where the PIMCO Funds were named, in the complaint, as a nominal defendant. The revenue sharing action in the District of Connecticut generally alleges that fund assets were inappropriately used to pay brokers to promote the PIMCO Funds and Allianz Funds, including directing fund brokerage transactions to such brokers, and that such alleged arrangements were not fully disclosed to shareholders. On August 11, 2005 the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut conducted a hearing on defendants’ motion to dismiss the consolidated amended complaint in the revenue sharing action but has not yet ruled on the motion to dismiss. The market timing and revenue sharing lawsuits seek, among other things, unspecified compensatory damages plus interest and, in some cases, punitive damages, the rescission of investment advisory contracts, the return of fees paid under those contracts and restitution.
Under Section 9(a) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“1940 Act”), if the New Jersey Settlement or any of the lawsuits described above were to result in a court injunction against AGI, PEA, AGID and/or their affiliates, PIMCO could, in the absence of exemptive relief granted by the SEC, be barred from serving as an investment adviser, and AGID could be barred from serving as principal underwriter, to any registered investment company, including the
| | | | | | |
| | Semiannual Report | | June 30, 2006 | | 19 |
Notes to Financial Statements (Cont.)
Portfolios of the Trust. In connection with an inquiry from the SEC concerning the status of the New Jersey Settlement under Section 9(a), PEA, AGID, AGI and certain of their affiliates (including PIMCO) (together, the “Applicants”) have sought exemptive relief from the SEC under Section 9(c) of the 1940 Act. The SEC has granted the Applicants a temporary exemption from the provisions of Section 9(a) with respect to the New Jersey Settlement until the earlier of (i) September 13, 2006 and (ii) the date on which the SEC takes final action on their application for a permanent order. There is no assurance that the SEC will issue a permanent order.
Two nearly identical class action civil complaints have been filed in August 2005, in the Northern District of Illinois Eastern Division alleging that the plaintiffs each purchased and sold a 10-year Treasury note futures contract and suffered damages from an alleged shortage when PIMCO held both physical and futures positions in 10-year Treasury notes for its client accounts. The two actions have been consolidated into one action, and the two separate complaints have been replaced by a consolidated complaint. PIMCO is a named defendant, and the PIMCO Funds have been added as a defendant, to the consolidated action. PIMCO strongly believes the complaint (and any consolidated complaint filed hereafter) is without merit and intends to vigorously defend itself.
Certain Portfolios of the Trust were recently served in an adversary proceeding brought by the Official Committee of Asbestos Claimants of G-I Holdings, Inc. in G-I Holdings, Inc.’s bankruptcy in the District of New Jersey. PIMCO was previously named in this lawsuit and remains a defendant. The plaintiff seeks to recover for the bankruptcy estate assets that were transferred by the predecessor entity of G-I Holdings, Inc. to a wholly-owned subsidiary in 1994. The subsidiary has since issued notes, of which certain Portfolios of the Trust are alleged to be holders. The complaint alleges that in 2000, more than two hundred noteholders—including certain Portfolios of the Trust—were granted a second priority lien on the assets of the subsidiary in exchange for their consent to a refinancing transaction and the granting of a first priority lien to the lending banks. The plaintiff is seeking invalidation of the lien in favor of the noteholders and/or the value of the lien.
It is possible that these matters and/or other developments resulting from these matters could result in increased fund redemptions or other adverse consequences to the Portfolios. However, PIMCO and AGID believe that these matters are not likely to have a material adverse effect on the Portfolios or on PIMCO’s or AGID’s ability to perform their respective investment advisory or distribution services relating to the Portfolios.

Chairman’s Letter
Dear PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust Shareholder:
It is our pleasure to present to you the semiannual report for the PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust covering the six-month period ended June 30, 2006.
Highlights of the global bond markets during the six-month period included:
| n | | Most fixed-income sectors lost ground during the first half of 2006, as concern about accelerating inflation and central bank tightening pushed interest rates higher worldwide. The benchmark Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index (which includes Treasury, Investment-Grade Corporate, and Residential Mortgage-Backed Securities) returned -0.72% for the first six months of the year. On June 30, the benchmark ten-year Treasury yielded 5.14%, 0.75% higher than at the start of the year. The U.S. yield curve remained flat as shorter-maturity yields rose by a comparable amount. |
| n | | The Federal Reserve tightened four times during the reporting period, bringing the Federal Funds Rate to 5.25%. The increase near the end of the period was the Federal Reserve’s 17th consecutive rate hike since the start of its tightening cycle in 2004. The Federal Reserve was not alone, as central banks in Europe, India, and China tightened credit in unison for the first time since 2000. The Bank of Japan, whose zero-interest-rate policy has flooded global markets with liquidity, looked set to reverse this policy in the coming months. |
In these pages please find a more complete Portfolio review as it relates to financial-market activities, as well as details about total-return investment performance for the six-month reporting period. Thank you for the trust you have placed in us. We will continue to work diligently to meet your investment needs.
Sincerely,

Brent R. Harris
Chairman, PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust

Important Information About the Portfolio
PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust (the “Trust”) is an open-end management investment company currently consisting of nineteen separate investment portfolios, including the RealEstateRealReturn Strategy Portfolio (the “Portfolio”). The Portfolio is only available as a funding vehicle under variable life insurance policies or variable annuity contracts issued by insurance companies (“Variable Contracts”). Individuals may not purchase shares of the Portfolio directly. Shares of the Portfolio also may be sold to qualified pension and retirement plans outside of the separate account context.
We believe that bond funds have an important role to play in a well diversified investment portfolio. It is important to note, however, that in an environment where interest rates may trend upward, rising rates would negatively impact the performance of most bond funds, and fixed-income securities held by a fund are likely to decrease in value. The price volatility of fixed-income securities can also increase during periods of rising interest rates resulting in increased losses to a fund. Bond funds and individual bonds with a longer duration (a measure of the expected life of a security) tend to be more sensitive to changes in interest rates, usually making them more volatile than securities or funds with shorter durations. The longer-term performance of most bond funds has benefited from capital gains in part resulting from an extended period of declining interest rates. In the event interest rates increase, these capital gains should not be expected to recur.
The Portfolio may be subject to various risks in addition to those described above. Some of these risks may include, but are not limited to, the following: credit risk, high yield risk, market risk, issuer risk, liquidity risk, derivatives risk, mortgage risk, non-U.S. investment risk, real estate risk, currency risk, issuer non-diversification risk, leveraging risk and management risk. A complete description of these risks is contained in the Portfolio’s prospectus. The Portfolio may use derivative instruments for hedging purposes or as part of an investment strategy. Use of these instruments may involve certain costs and risks such as liquidity risk, interest rate risk, market risk, credit risk, management risk and the risk that the Portfolio could not close out a position when it would be most advantageous to do so. A Portfolio investing in derivatives could lose more than the principal amount invested in these instruments. Investing in non-U.S. securities may entail risk due to non-U.S. economic and political developments.
On the performance summary page in this Semiannual Report, the Total Return Investment Performance table measures performance assuming that all dividend and capital gain distributions were reinvested.
An investment in the Portfolio is not a deposit of a bank and is not guaranteed or insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. It is possible to lose money on investments in the Portfolio.
PIMCO has adopted written proxy voting policies and procedures (“Proxy Policy”) as required by Rule 206(4)-6 under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940. The Proxy Policy has been adopted by the Trust as the policies and procedures that PIMCO will use when voting proxies on behalf of the Portfolio. Copies of the written Proxy Policy and the factors that PIMCO may consider in determining how to vote proxies for the Portfolio, and information about how the Portfolio voted proxies relating to portfolio securities held during the most recent twelve-month period ended June 30, are available without charge, upon request, by calling the Trust at 1-866-746-2606 and on the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) website at http://www.sec.gov.
The Portfolio files its complete schedule of portfolio holdings with the SEC for the first and third quarters of each fiscal year on Form N-Q. A copy of the Trust’s Form N-Q is available on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov and may be reviewed and copied at the SEC’s Public Reference Room in Washington D.C.

The following disclosure provides important information regarding the Portfolio’s Expense Example (“Example” or “Expense Example”), which appears in this Semiannual Report. Please refer to this information when reviewing the Expense Example for the Portfolio.
Example
As a shareholder of the Portfolio, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs and (2) ongoing costs, including advisory and administrative fees; distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees (Administrative Class only); and other Portfolio expenses. The Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Portfolio and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Expense Example does not reflect any fees or other expenses imposed by the Variable Contracts. If it did, the expenses reflected in the Expense Examples would be higher. The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period indicated, which is from January 1, 2006 to June 30, 2006.
Actual Expenses
The information in the table under the heading “Actual Performance” provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in these columns, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.60), then multiply the result by the number in the appropriate column for your share class, in the row titled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The information in the table under the heading “Hypothetical Performance (5% return before expenses)” provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Portfolio’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Portfolio’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Portfolio and other portfolios. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other portfolios.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs. Therefore, the information under the heading “Hypothetical Performance (5% return before expenses)” is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different portfolios. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.
The expense ratio may vary period to period because of various factors, such as an increase in expenses not covered by the advisory and administrative fees (such as expenses of the trustees and their counsel or litigation expense).

Past performance is no guarantee of future results. The performance quoted represents past performance. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so the Portfolio shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. The Portfolio’s performance does not reflect the deduction of additional charges and expenses imposed in connection with investing in Variable Contracts, which will reduce returns. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. Performance data current to the most recent month-end is available by calling (800) 927-4648.

Overall fees and expenses of investing in the Portfolio will be higher because the example does not reflect Variable Contract fees and expenses.

Portfolio Insights
» | | The PIMCO RealEstateRealReturn Strategy Portfolio seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing under normal circumstances in real estate-linked derivative instruments backed by a portfolio of inflation-indexed securities and other Fixed-Income Instruments. |
» | | The Portfolio invested the collateral backing its Real Estate Investment Trusts (“REITs”) derivatives positions primarily in Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities (“TIPS”), implementing a “double real®” strategy. For the six-month period ending June 30, 2006, this was negative for performance, as TIPS underperformed the financing and transaction costs associated with gaining index exposure. This is attributable to short-term instruments such as LIBOR outperforming instruments with longer duration such as TIPS. |
» | | The Portfolio’s above benchmark duration for most of the period detracted from overall performance, as real yields rose on strong U.S. economic growth. The effective duration of the Fund was 7.62 years on June 30, 2006 compared to a duration of 7.68 years for the benchmark. |
» | | Exposure to short maturity U.S. nominal bonds for the period detracted significantly from performance due to a substantial flattening of the nominal yield curve. |
» | | Currency exposure added to performance resulting from a depreciation of the U.S. dollar relative to the Euro and Japanese Yen. |

Notes to Financial Statements | | June 30, 2006 (Unaudited) |
1. ORGANIZATION
The RealEstateRealReturn Strategy Portfolio (the “Portfolio”) is a series of the PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust (the “Trust”). The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “Act”), as amended, as an open-end investment management company organized as a Delaware business trust on October 3, 1997. The Portfolio offers one class of shares: Administrative. Information presented in these financial statements pertains to the Administrative Class of the Portfolio. The Trust is designed to be used as an investment vehicle by Separate Accounts of insurance companies that fund variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies and by qualified pension and retirement plans.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Portfolio in the preparation of its financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Security Valuation. Portfolio securities are valued as of the close of regular trading (normally 4:00 p.m., Eastern Time) on each day that the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) is open. Portfolio securities and other assets for which market quotes are readily available are stated at market value. Market value is generally determined on the basis of last reported sales prices, or if no sales are reported, based on quotes obtained from a quotation reporting system, established market makers, or pricing services. Fixed-income securities and non-exchange traded derivatives are normally valued on the basis of quotes obtained from brokers and dealers or pricing services. Prices obtained from independent pricing services use information provided by market makers or estimates of market values obtained from yield data relating to investments or securities with similar characteristics. Certain fixed-income securities purchased on a delayed-delivery basis are marked to market daily until settlement at the forward settlement date. Short-term investments having a maturity of 60 days or less are generally valued at amortized cost. Exchange traded options, futures and options on futures are valued at the settlement price determined by the relevant exchange.
Investments initially valued in currencies other than the U.S. dollar are converted to the U.S. dollar using exchange rates obtained from pricing services. As a result, the NAV of the Portfolio’s shares may be affected by changes in the value of currencies in relation to the U.S. dollar. The value of securities traded in markets outside the United States or denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar may be affected significantly on a day that the NYSE is closed and an investor is not able to purchase, redeem or exchange shares.
Securities and other assets for which market quotes are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction. The Board of Trustees has adopted methods for valuing securities and other assets in circumstances where market quotes are not readily available, and has delegated to Pacific Investment Management Company LLC (“PIMCO”) the responsibility for applying the valuation methods. In the event that market quotes are not readily available, and the security or asset cannot be valued pursuant to one of the valuation methods, the value of the security or asset will be determined in good faith by the Valuation Committee of the Board of Trustees, generally based upon recommendations provided by PIMCO.
Market quotes are considered not readily available in circumstances where there is an absence of current or reliable market-based data (e.g., trade information, bid/asked information, broker quotes), including where events occur after the close of the relevant market, but prior to the close of regular trading, that materially affect the values of the Portfolio’s securities or assets. In addition, market quotes are considered not readily available when, due to extraordinary circumstances, the exchanges or markets on which the securities trade do not open for trading for the entire day and no other market prices are available. The Board has delegated to PIMCO the responsibility for monitoring significant events that may materially affect the values of the Portfolio’s securities or assets and for determining whether the value of the applicable securities or assets should be re-evaluated in light of such significant events when the Portfolio uses fair value pricing to determine its NAV, securities will not be priced on the basis of quotations from the primary market in which they are traded, but rather may be priced by another method that the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction believe accurately reflects fair value. The Trust’s policy is intended to result in a calculation of the Portfolio’s NAV that fairly reflects security values as of the time of pricing. However, fair values determined by the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction may not accurately reflect the price that the Portfolio could obtain for a security if it were to dispose of that security as of the time of pricing. Because foreign securities can trade on non-business days, the NAV of the Portfolio may change on days when shareholders will not be able to purchase or redeem shares. The prices used by the Portfolio may differ from the value that would be realized if the securities were sold and the differences could be material to the financial statements.
Securities Transactions and Investment Income. Securities transactions are recorded as of the trade date. Securities purchased or sold on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis may be settled a month or more after the trade date. Realized gains and losses from securities sold are recorded on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Portfolio is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, adjusted for the accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis. Paydown gains and losses on mortgage-related or asset-backed securities are recorded as components of interest income in the Statement of Operations.
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends from net investment income, if any, are declared and distributed to shareholders quarterly. Net realized capital gains earned by the Portfolio, if any, will be distributed no less frequently than once each year. Most shareholders choose to reinvest their dividends and capital gain distribution in additional shares of the Portfolio.
Income dividends and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP. Differences between tax regulations and GAAP may change the fiscal year when income and capital items are recognized for tax and GAAP purposes. Examples of events that give rise to timing differences include wash sales, straddles, net operating losses and capital loss carryforwards. Further, the character of investment income and capital gains may be different for certain transactions under the two methods of accounting. Examples of characterization differences include the treatment of mortgage paydowns, swaps, foreign currency transactions and contingent debt instruments. As a result, income dividends and capital gain distributions declared during a fiscal period may differ significantly from the net investment income and realized capital gain reported in the Portfolio’s annual financial statements presented under GAAP.
Distributions classified as a tax basis return of capital, if any, are reflected in the accompanying Statements of Changes in Net Assets and have been reclassified to paid in capital. In addition, other amounts have been reclassified between undistributed net investment income, accumulated undistributed net realized gains or losses and/or paid in capital to more appropriately conform financial accounting to tax characterizations of dividend distributions.

Notes to Financial Statements (Cont.)
Delayed-Delivery Transactions. The Portfolio may purchase or sell securities on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis. These transactions involve a commitment by the Portfolio to purchase or sell securities for a predetermined price or yield, with payment and delivery taking place beyond the customary settlement period. When delayed-delivery purchases are outstanding, the Portfolio will designate liquid assets in an amount sufficient to meet the purchase price. When purchasing a security on a delayed-delivery basis, the Portfolio assumes the rights and risks of ownership of the security, including the risk of price and yield fluctuations, and takes such fluctuations into account when determining its net asset value. The Portfolio may dispose of or renegotiate a delayed-delivery transaction after it is entered into, and may sell when-issued securities before they are delivered, which may result in a capital gain or loss. When the Portfolio has sold a security on a delayed-delivery basis, the Portfolio does not participate in future gains and losses with respect to the security.
Federal Income Taxes. The Portfolio intends to qualify as a regulated investment company under sub-chapter M of the Internal Revenue Code and distribute all of its taxable income and net realized gains, if applicable, to shareholders. Accordingly, no provision for Federal income taxes has been made.
Foreign Currency. The accounting records of the Portfolio are maintained in U.S. dollar. The market values of foreign securities, currency holdings and other assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollar based on the current exchange rates each business day. Fluctuations in the value of currency holdings and other assets and liabilities resulting from changes in exchange rates are recorded as unrealized foreign currency gains or losses. Realized gains or losses and unrealized appreciation or depreciation on investment securities and income and expenses are translated on the respective dates of such transactions. The effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on investments in securities are not segregated in the Statement of Operations from the effects of changes in market prices of those securities, but are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss on investment securities.

Non-U.S. currency symbols utilized throughout the report are defined as follows: |
CHF | | Swiss Franc | | JPY | | Japanese Yen |
EUR | | Euro | | | | |
Forward Currency Transactions. The Portfolio may enter into forward currency contracts in connection with settling planned purchases or sales of securities, to hedge the currency exposure associated with some or all of the Portfolio’s securities or as a part of an investment strategy. A forward currency contract is an agreement between two parties to buy and sell a currency at a set price on a future date. The market value of a forward currency contract fluctuates with changes in forward currency exchange rates. Forward currency contracts are marked to market daily and the change in value is recorded by the Portfolio as an unrealized gain or loss. Realized gains or losses equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed are recorded upon delivery or receipt of the currency or, if a forward currency contract is offset by entering into another forward currency contract with the same broker, upon settlement of the net gain or loss. These contracts may involve market risk in excess of the unrealized gain or loss reflected in the Portfolio’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities. In addition, the Portfolio could be exposed to risk if the counterparties are unable to meet the terms of the contracts or if the value of the currency changes unfavorably to the U.S. dollar.
Futures Contracts. The Portfolio is authorized to enter into futures contracts. The Portfolio may use futures contracts to manage its exposure to the securities markets or to movements in interest rates and currency values. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are the imperfect correlation between the change in market value of the securities held by the Portfolio and the prices of futures contracts, the possibility of an illiquid market, and the inability of the counterparty to meet the terms of the contract. Futures contracts are valued based upon their quoted daily settlement prices. Upon entering into a futures contract, the Portfolio is required to deposit with its custodian, in a segregated account in the name of the futures broker, an amount of cash or U.S. Government and Agency Obligations in accordance with the initial margin requirements of the broker or exchange. Futures contracts are marked to market daily and an appropriate payable or receivable for the change in value (“variation margin”) is recorded by the Portfolio. Gains or losses are recognized but not considered realized until the contracts expire or are closed. Futures contracts involve, to varying degrees, risk of loss in excess of the variation margin disclosed in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
Inflation-Indexed Bonds. The Portfolio may invest in inflation-indexed bonds. Inflation-indexed bonds are fixed-income securities whose principal value is periodically adjusted to the rate of inflation. The interest rate on these bonds is generally fixed at issuance at a rate lower than typical bonds. Over the life of an inflation-indexed bond, however, interest will be paid based on a principal value, which is adjusted for inflation. Any increase in the principal amount of an inflation-indexed bond will be included as interest income in the Statement of Operations, even though investors do not receive their principal until maturity.
Options Contracts. The Portfolio may write call and put options on futures, swaps, securities or currencies it owns or in which it may invest. Writing put options tends to increase the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. Writing call options tends to decrease the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. When the Portfolio writes a call or put option, an amount equal to the premium received is recorded as a liability and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the option written. These liabilities are reflected as written options outstanding in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Certain options may be written with premiums to determined on a future date. The premiums for these options are based upon implied volatility parameters at specified terms. Premiums received from writing options which expire are treated as realized gains. Premiums received from writing options which are exercised or closed are added to the proceeds or offset against amounts paid on the underlying future, swap, security or currency transaction to determine the realized gain or loss. The Portfolio as a writer of an option has no control over whether the underlying future, swap, security or currency may be sold (call) or purchased (put) and as a result bears the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the future, swap, security or currency underlying the written option. There is the risk the Portfolio may not be able to enter into a closing transaction because of an illiquid market.
The Portfolio may also purchase put and call options. Purchasing call options tends to increase the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. Purchasing put options tends to decrease the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. The Portfolio pays a premium which is included in the Portfolio’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an investment and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the option. Premiums paid for purchasing options which expire are treated as realized losses. Certain options may be purchased with premiums to be determined on a future date. The premiums for these options are based upon implied volatility parameters at specified terms. The risk associated with purchasing put and call options is limited to the premium paid. Premiums paid for purchasing options which are exercised or closed are added to the amounts paid or offset against the proceeds on the underlying future, swap, security or currency transaction to determine the realized gain or loss.
Repurchase Agreements. The Portfolio may engage in repurchase transactions. Under the terms of a typical repurchase agreement, the Portfolio takes possession
| | | | |
12 | | PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust | | |
| | |
| |
| | June 30, 2006 (Unaudited) |
of an underlying debt obligation subject to an obligation of the seller to repurchase, and the Portfolio to resell, the obligation at an agreed-upon price and time. The underlying securities for all repurchase agreements are held in safekeeping at the Portfolio’s custodian or designated subcustodians under triparty repurchase agreements. The market value of the collateral must be equal to or exceed at all times the total amount of the repurchase obligations, including interest. Securities purchased under repurchase agreements are reflected as an asset in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Generally, in the event of counterparty default, the Portfolio has the right to use the collateral to offset losses incurred. If the counterparty should default, the Portfolio will seek to sell the securities which it holds as collateral. This could involve procedural costs or delays in addition to a loss on the securities if their value should fall below their repurchase price.
Swap Agreements. The Portfolio may engage in swap transactions, including, but not limited to, swap agreements on interest rate and total return to manage its exposure to interest rates and credit risk. In connection with these agreements, securities may be identified as collateral in accordance with the terms of the respective swap agreements.
Interest rate swap agreements involve the exchange by the Portfolio with another party of their respective commitments to pay or receive interest, e.g., an exchange of floating rate payments for fixed rate payments with respect to the notional amount of principal.
Total return swap agreements involve commitments to pay interest in exchange for a market-linked return, both based on notional amounts. To the extent the total return of the security or index underlying the transaction exceeds or falls short of the offsetting interest rate obligation, the Portfolio will receive a payment from or make a payment to the counterparty.
Swaps are marked to market daily based upon quotations from market makers and the change in value, if any, is recorded as unrealized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Payments received or made at the beginning of the measurement period are reflected as such in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. These upfront payments are recorded as realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations upon termination or maturity of the swap. A liquidation payment received or made at the termination of the swap is recorded as realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Net periodic payments received or paid by the Portfolio are included as part of realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Entering into these agreements involves, to varying degrees, elements of credit, market and documentation risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Such risks involve the possibility that there will be no liquid market for these agreements, that the counterparty to the agreements may default on its obligation to perform or disagree as to the meaning of contractual terms in the agreements and that there may be unfavorable changes in interest rates.
U.S. Government Agencies or Government-Sponsored Enterprises. Securities issued by U.S. Government agencies or government-sponsored enterprises may not be guaranteed by the U.S. Treasury. The Government National Mortgage Association (“GNMA”), a wholly owned U.S. Government corporation, is authorized to guarantee, with the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government, the timely payment of principal and interest on securities issued by institutions approved by GNMA and backed by pools of mortgages insured by the Federal Housing Administration or guaranteed by the Department of Veterans Affairs. Government-related guarantors (i.e., not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government) include the Federal National Mortgage Association (“FNMA” or “Fannie Mae”) and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“FHLMC” or “Freddie Mac”). Pass-through securities issued by FNMA are guaranteed as to timely payment of principal and interest by FNMA but are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government. FHLMC guarantees the timely payment of interest and ultimate collection of principal, but its participation certificates are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government.
Guarantees and Indemnifications. Under the Trust’s organizational documents, each Trustee, officer, employee or other agent of the Trust (including the Trust’s investment manager) is indemnified against certain liabilities that may arise out of performance of their duties to the Portfolio. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Portfolio enters into contracts that contain a variety of indemnification clauses. The Portfolio’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Portfolio that have not yet occurred. However, the Portfolio has not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts, and believes the risk of loss to be remote.
New Accounting Policies. In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes—an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (the “Interpretation”). The Interpretation is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. Management is currently evaluating the application of the Interpretation to the Portfolio and will provide additional information in relation to the Interpretation in the Portfolio’s annual financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2006.
3. FEES, EXPENSES, AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Investment Advisory Fee. PIMCO is a majority-owned subsidiary of Allianz Global Investors of America L.P. (“AGI”), and serves as investment adviser (the “Adviser”) to the Trust, pursuant to an investment advisory contract. The Adviser receives a monthly fee at an annual rate based on average daily net assets of the Portfolio. The Advisory Fee is charged at an annual rate of 0.49%.
Administration Fee. PIMCO serves as administrator (the “Administrator”), and provides administrative services to the Trust for which it receives a monthly administrative fee based on average daily net assets of the Portfolio. As the Administrator, PIMCO bears the costs of various third-party services, including audit, custodial, portfolio accounting, legal, transfer agency and printing costs. The Administration Fee is charged at the annual rate of 0.25%.
Distribution and Servicing Fees. Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC (“AGID”) is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of AGI and serves as the distributor of the Trust’s shares. The Trust is permitted to reimburse AGID on a quarterly basis, out of the Administrative Class assets of the Portfolio in the amount of 0.15% on an annual basis of the average daily net assets of that class, for payments made to financial intermediaries that provide services in connection with the distribution of shares or administration of plans or programs that use Portfolio shares as their funding medium. The effective rate paid to AGID was 0.15% during the current fiscal year.
Expenses. The Trust is responsible for the following expenses: (i) salaries and other compensation of any of the Trust’s executive officers and employees who are not officers, directors, stockholders or employees of PIMCO or its subsidiaries or affiliates; (ii) taxes and governmental fees; (iii) brokerage fees and commissions and other portfolio transaction expenses; (iv) the costs of borrowing money, including interest expenses and bank overdraft charges; (v) fees and expenses of the Trustees who are not “interested persons” of PIMCO or the Trust, and any counsel retained exclusively for their benefit; (vi) extraordinary expenses, including costs of litigation and indemnification expenses; (vii) organization expenses and (viii) any expenses allocated or allocable to a specific class of shares, which include service fees payable with respect to the Administrative Class shares and may include certain other expenses as permitted by the Trust’s Multiple Class Plan adopted pursuant to Rule 18f-3 under the Act and subject to review and approval
| | | | | | |
| | Semiannual Report | | June 30, 2006 | | 13 |
Notes to Financial Statements (Cont.)
by the Trustees. The ratio of expenses to average net assets per share class, as disclosed in the Financial Highlights, may differ from the annual portfolio operating expenses per share class as disclosed in the Prospectus for the reasons set forth above.
PIMCO has agreed to waive a portion of its administrative fees to the extent that the payment of the Portfolio’s pro rata share of organization expenses and Trustee fees cause the actual expense ratio to rise above the rates disclosed in the then-current prospectus plus 0.49 basis points as set forth below (calculated as a percentage of the Portfolio’s average daily net assets attributable to each class):
| | | |
Administrative Class | | 0.89 | % |
PIMCO may be reimbursed for these waived amounts in future periods, not to exceed thirty-six months. Expenses that have been waived and may still be reimbursed by the Administrator, to the extent the Portfolio’s annualized total portfolio operating expenses plus the amount so reimbursed does not exceed the operating expense limitation, are as follows (amounts in thousands):
| | | | | | | | | | |
| | | | | 12/31/2005 | | | | | 06/30/2006 |
Amount Available for Reimbursement | | | | $ | 21 | | | | $ | 0 |
For the current period ended June 30, 2006, each unaffiliated Trustee received an annual retainer of $15,000, plus $2,000 for each Board of Trustees quarterly meeting attended, $500 for each Board of Trustees committee meeting attended and $500 for each special board meeting attended, plus reimbursement of related expenses. In addition, each Committee Chair received an additional annual retainer of $500 and each Audit Committee Chair received an additional annual retainer of $1,500. These expenses are allocated on a pro-rata basis to each Portfolio of the Trust according to its respective net assets. The Trust pays no compensation directly to any Trustee or any other officer who is affiliated with the Administrator, all of whom receive remuneration for their services to the Trust from the Administrator or its affiliates.
4. PURCHASES AND SALES OF SECURITIES
The length of time the Portfolio has held a particular security is not generally a consideration in investment decisions. A change in the securities held by the Portfolio is known as “portfolio turnover”. The Portfolio may engage in frequent and active trading of portfolio securities to achieve its investment objective, particularly during periods of volatile market movements. High portfolio turnover (e.g., over 100%) involves correspondingly greater expenses to the Portfolio, including brokerage commissions or dealer mark-ups and other transaction costs on the sale of securities and reinvestments in other securities. Such sales may also result in realization of taxable capital gains, including short-term capital gains (which are generally taxed at ordinary income tax rates). The trading costs and tax effects associated with portfolio turnover may adversely affect the Portfolio’s performance.
Purchases and sales of securities (excluding short-term investments) for the period ended June 30, 2006 were as follows (amounts in thousands):

8. REGULATORY AND LITIGATION MATTERS
On June 1, 2004, the Attorney General of the State of New Jersey announced that it had dismissed PIMCO from a complaint filed by the New Jersey Attorney General on February 17, 2004, and that it had entered into a settlement agreement (the “New Jersey Settlement”) with Allianz Global Investors of America L.P. (“AGI”) (formerly known as Allianz Dresdner Asset Management of America L.P.), PEA Capital LLC (an entity affiliated with PIMCO through common ownership) (“PEA”) and Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC (“AGID”), in connection with the same matter. In the New Jersey Settlement, AGI, PEA and AGID neither admitted nor denied the allegations or conclusions of law, but did agree to pay New Jersey a civil fine of $15 million and $3 million for investigative costs and further potential enforcement initiatives against unrelated parties. They also undertook to implement certain governance changes. The complaint relating to the New Jersey Settlement alleged, among other things, that AGI, PEA and AGID had failed to disclose that they improperly allowed certain hedge funds to engage in “market timing” in certain funds. The complaint sought injunctive relief, civil monetary penalties, restitution and disgorgement of profits.
Since February 2004, PIMCO, AGI, PEA, AGID, and certain of their affiliates, including the PIMCO Funds, the Allianz Funds (formerly known as PIMCO Funds: Multi-Manager Series), and the Trustees and employees of the PIMCO Funds, have been named as defendants in fifteen lawsuits filed in various jurisdictions. Eleven of those lawsuits concern “market timing,” and they have been transferred to and consolidated for pre-trial proceedings in a multi-district litigation proceeding in the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland; the other four lawsuits concern “revenue sharing” and have been consolidated into a single action in the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut. The lawsuits have been commenced as putative class actions on behalf of investors who purchased, held or redeemed shares of the various series of the PIMCO Funds and the Allianz Funds during specified periods, or as derivative actions on behalf of the PIMCO Funds and Allianz Funds.
The market timing actions in the District of Maryland generally allege that certain hedge funds were allowed to engage in “market timing” in certain of the PIMCO Funds and the Allianz Funds and this alleged activity was not disclosed. Pursuant to tolling agreements entered into with the derivative and class action plaintiffs, PIMCO, the Trustees, and certain employees of PIMCO who were previously named as defendants have all been dropped as defendants in the market timing actions; the plaintiffs continue to assert claims on behalf of the shareholders of the PIMCO Funds or on behalf of the PIMCO Funds themselves against other defendants. By order dated November 3, 2005, the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland granted the PIMCO Funds’ motion to dismiss claims asserted against it in a consolidated amended complaint where the PIMCO Funds were named, in the complaint, as a nominal defendant. The revenue sharing action in the District of Connecticut generally alleges that fund assets were inappropriately used to pay brokers to promote the PIMCO Funds and Allianz Funds including directing fund brokerage transactions to such brokers, and that such alleged arrangements were not fully disclosed to shareholders. On August 11, 2005 the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut conducted a hearing on defendants’ motion to dismiss the consolidated amended complaint in the revenue sharing action but has not yet ruled on the motion to dismiss. The market timing and revenue sharing lawsuits seek, among other things, unspecified compensatory damages plus interest and, in some cases, punitive damages, the rescission of investment advisory contracts, the return of fees paid under those contracts and restitution.
Under Section 9(a) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“1940 Act”), if the New Jersey Settlement or any of the lawsuits described above were to result in a court injunction against AGI, PEA, AGID and/or their affiliates, PIMCO could, in the absence of exemptive relief granted by the SEC, be barred from serving as an investment adviser, and AGID could be barred from serving as principal underwriter, to any registered investment company, including the Portfolios of the Trust. In connection with an inquiry from the SEC concerning the status of the New Jersey Settlement under Section 9(a), PEA, AGID, AGI and certain of their affiliates (including PIMCO) (together, the “Applicants”) have sought exemptive relief from the SEC under Section 9(c) of the 1940 Act. The SEC has granted the Applicants a temporary exemption from the provisions of Section 9(a) with respect to the New Jersey Settlement until the earlier of (i) September 13, 2006 and (ii) the date on which the SEC takes final action on their application for a permanent order. There is no assurance that the SEC will issue a permanent order.
Two nearly identical class action civil complaints have been filed in August 2005, in the Northern District of Illinois Eastern Division alleging that the plaintiffs each purchased and sold a 10-year Treasury note futures contract and suffered damages from an alleged shortage when PIMCO held both physical and futures positions in 10-year Treasury notes for its client accounts. The two actions have been consolidated into one action, and the two separate complaints have been replaced by a consolidated complaint. PIMCO is a named defendant, and the PIMCO Funds have been added as a defendant, to the consolidated action. PIMCO strongly believes the complaint (and any consolidated complaint filed hereafter) is without merit and intends to vigorously defend itself.
Certain Portfolios of the Trust were recently served in an adversary proceeding brought by the Official Committee of Asbestos Claimants of G-I Holdings, Inc. in G-I Holdings, Inc.’s bankruptcy in the District of New Jersey. PIMCO was previously named in this lawsuit and remains a defendant. The plaintiff seeks to recover for the bankruptcy estate assets that were transferred by the predecessor entity of G-I Holdings, Inc. to a wholly-owned subsidiary in 1994. The subsidiary has since issued notes, of which certain Portfolios of the Trust are alleged to be holders. The complaint alleges that in 2000, more than two hundred noteholders—including certain Portfolios of the Trust—were granted a second priority lien on the assets of the subsidiary in exchange for their consent to a refinancing transaction and the granting of a first priority lien to the lending banks. The plaintiff is seeking invalidation of the lien in favor of the noteholders and/or the value of the lien.
It is possible that these matters and/or other developments resulting from these matters could result in increased fund redemptions or other adverse consequences to the Portfolios. However, PIMCO and AGID believe that these matters are not likely to have a material adverse effect on the Portfolios or on PIMCO’s or AGID’s ability to perform their respective investment advisory or distribution services relating to the Portfolios.

Dear PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust Shareholder:
It is our pleasure to present to you the semiannual report for the PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust covering the six-month period ended June 30, 2006.
Highlights of the global bond markets during the six-month period included:
| n | | Most fixed-income sectors lost ground during the first half of 2006, as concern about accelerating inflation and central bank tightening pushed interest rates higher worldwide. The benchmark Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index (which includes Treasury, Investment-Grade Corporate, and Residential Mortgage-Backed Securities) returned -0.72% for the first six months of the year. On June 30, the benchmark ten-year Treasury yielded 5.14%, 0.75% higher than at the start of the year. The U.S. yield curve remained flat as shorter-maturity yields rose by a comparable amount. |
| n | | The Federal Reserve tightened four times during the reporting period, bringing the Federal Funds Rate to 5.25%. The increase near the end of the period was the Federal Reserve’s 17th consecutive rate hike since the start of its tightening cycle in 2004. The Federal Reserve was not alone, as central banks in Europe, India, and China tightened credit in unison for the first time since 2000. The Bank of Japan, whose zero-interest-rate policy has flooded global markets with liquidity, looked set to reverse this policy in the coming months. |
In these pages please find a more complete Portfolio review as it relates to financial-market activities, as well as details about total-return investment performance for the six-month reporting period. Thank you for the trust you have placed in us. We will continue to work diligently to meet your investment needs.
Sincerely,

Brent R. Harris
Chairman, PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust

Important Information About the Portfolio
PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust (the “Trust”) is an open-end management investment company currently consisting of nineteen separate investment portfolios, including the Short-Term Portfolio (the “Portfolio”). The Portfolio is only available as a funding vehicle under variable life insurance policies or variable annuity contracts issued by insurance companies (“Variable Contracts”). Individuals may not purchase shares of the Portfolio directly. Shares of the Portfolio also may be sold to qualified pension and retirement plans outside of the separate account context.
We believe that bond funds have an important role to play in a well diversified investment portfolio. It is important to note, however, that in an environment where interest rates may trend upward, rising rates would negatively impact the performance of most bond funds, and fixed-income securities held by a fund are likely to decrease in value. The price volatility of fixed-income securities can also increase during periods of rising interest rates resulting in increased losses to a fund. Bond funds and individual bonds with a longer duration (a measure of the expected life of a security) tend to be more sensitive to changes in interest rates, usually making them more volatile than securities or funds with shorter durations. The longer-term performance of most bond funds has benefited from capital gains in part resulting from an extended period of declining interest rates. In the event interest rates increase, these capital gains should not be expected to recur.
The Portfolio may be subject to various risks in addition to those described above. Some of these risks may include, but are not limited to, the following: credit risk, high yield risk, market risk, issuer risk, derivatives risk, mortgage risk, non-U.S. investment risk, currency risk, leveraging risk and management risk. A complete description of these risks is contained in the Portfolio’s prospectus. The Portfolio may use derivative instruments for hedging purposes or as part of an investment strategy. Use of these instruments may involve certain costs and risks such as liquidity risk, interest rate risk, market risk, credit risk, management risk and the risk that the Portfolio could not close out a position when it would be most advantageous to do so. A Portfolio investing in derivatives could lose more than the principal amount invested in these instruments. Investing in non-U.S. securities may entail risk due to non-U.S. economic and political developments.
On the performance summary page in this Semiannual Report, the Total Return Investment Performance table measures performance assuming that all dividend and capital gain distributions were reinvested.
An investment in the Portfolio is not a deposit of a bank and is not guaranteed or insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. It is possible to lose money on investments in the Portfolio.
PIMCO has adopted written proxy voting policies and procedures (“Proxy Policy”) as required by Rule 206(4)-6 under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940. The Proxy Policy has been adopted by the Trust as the policies and procedures that PIMCO will use when voting proxies on behalf of the Portfolio. Copies of the written Proxy Policy and the factors that PIMCO may consider in determining how to vote proxies for the Portfolio, and information about how the Portfolio voted proxies relating to portfolio securities held during the most recent twelve-month period ended June 30, are available without charge, upon request, by calling the Trust at 1-866-746-2606 and on the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) website at http://www.sec.gov.
The Portfolio files its complete schedule of portfolio holdings with the SEC for the first and third quarters of each fiscal year on Form N-Q. A copy of the Trust’s Form N-Q is available on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov and may be reviewed and copied at the SEC’s Public Reference Room in Washington D.C. Information on the operation of the Public Reference Room may be obtained by calling 1-800-SEC-0330.

The following disclosure provides important information regarding the Portfolio’s Expense Example (“Example” or “Expense Example”), which appears in this Semiannual Report. Please refer to this information when reviewing the Expense Example for the Portfolio.
Example
As a shareholder of the Portfolio, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs and (2) ongoing costs, including advisory and administrative fees; distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees (Administrative Class only); and other Portfolio expenses. The Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Portfolio and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Expense Example does not reflect any fees or other expenses imposed by the Variable Contracts. If it did, the expenses reflected in the Expense Examples would be higher. The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period indicated, which is from January 1, 2006 to June 30, 2006.
Actual Expenses
The information in the table under the heading “Actual Performance” provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in these columns, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.60), then multiply the result by the number in the appropriate column for your share class, in the row titled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The information in the table under the heading “Hypothetical Performance (5% return before expenses)” provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Portfolio’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Portfolio’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Portfolio and other portfolios. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other portfolios.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs. Therefore, the information under the heading “Hypothetical Performance (5% return before expenses)” is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different portfolios. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.
The expense ratio may vary period to period because of various factors, such as an increase in expenses not covered by the advisory and administrative fees (such as expenses of the trustees and their counsel or litigation expense).
Portfolio Benchmark

Past performance is no guarantee of future results. The performance quoted represents past performance. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so the Portfolio shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. The Portfolio’s performance does not reflect the deduction of additional charges and expenses imposed in connection with investing in Variable Contracts, which will reduce returns. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. Performance data current to the most recent month-end is available by calling (800) 927-4648.

† Expenses are equal to the Portfolio’s Administrative Class annualized expense ratio of 0.60%, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 181/365 (to reflect the one-half year period). Overall fees and expenses of investing in the Portfolio will be higher because the example does not reflect Variable Contract fees and expenses.

Portfolio Insights
» | | The PIMCO Short-Term Portfolio seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing under normal circumstances at least 65% of its total assets in a diversified portfolio of Fixed-Income Instruments of varying maturities. |
» | | The first half of the year was a difficult environment for the Short-Term strategy as most bonds lagged money market instruments; concern about accelerating inflation and central bank tightening pushed interest rates higher worldwide. |
» | | U.S. interest rate exposure was the dominant cause of underperformance as Federal Reserve rate hikes totaled 1.00% during the first half of the year. |
» | | The Portfolio’s curve steepening bias was a negative contributor to performance as the U.S. treasury yield curve flattened in conjunction with increasing rates—three month rates increased approximately 0.90% while intermediate rates only increased about by 0.75%. |
» | | Broad diversification to higher-yielding bond sectors, including mortgages, corporates, and emerging market securities, helped partially buffer the underperformance associated with rising rates. |
» | | Asset-backed bonds helped returns amid strong demand for their higher yield relative to money market instruments and for their collateral protection. |
» | | Long exposure to the Yen and to Euro currency helped performance as both currencies appreciated relative to the U.S. dollar during the first half of the year. |

Notes to Financial Statements
1. ORGANIZATION
The Short-Term Portfolio (the “Portfolio”) is a series of the PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust (the “Trust”). The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “Act”), as amended, as an open-end investment management company organized as a Delaware business trust on October 3, 1997. The Portfolio offers two classes of shares: Institutional and Administrative. Information presented in these financial statements pertains to the Administrative Class of the Portfolio. Certain detailed financial information for the Institutional Class is provided separately and is available upon request. The Trust is designed to be used as an investment vehicle by Separate Accounts of insurance companies that fund variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies and by qualified pension and retirement plans.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Portfolio in the preparation of its financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Security Valuation. Portfolio securities are valued as of the close of regular trading (normally 4:00 p.m., Eastern Time) on each day that the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) is open. Portfolio securities and other assets for which market quotes are readily available are stated at market value. Market value is generally determined on the basis of last reported sales prices, or if no sales are reported, based on quotes obtained from a quotation reporting system, established market makers, or pricing services. Fixed-income securities and non-exchange traded derivatives are normally valued on the basis of quotes obtained from brokers and dealers or pricing services. Prices obtained from independent pricing services use information provided by market makers or estimates of market values obtained from yield data relating to investments or securities with similar characteristics. Certain fixed-income securities purchased on a delayed-delivery basis are marked to market daily until settlement at the forward settlement date. Short-term investments having a maturity of 60 days or less are generally valued at amortized cost. Exchange traded options, futures and options on futures are valued at the settlement price determined by the relevant exchange.
Investments initially valued in currencies other than the U.S. dollar are converted to the U.S. dollar using exchange rates obtained from pricing services. As a result, the NAV of the Portfolio’s shares may be affected by changes in the value of currencies in relation to the U.S. dollar. The value of securities traded in markets outside the United States or denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar may be affected significantly on a day that the NYSE is closed and an investor is not able to purchase, redeem or exchange shares.
Securities and other assets for which market quotes are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction. The Board of Trustees has adopted methods for valuing securities and other assets in circumstances where market quotes are not readily available, and has delegated to Pacific Investment Management Company LLC (“PIMCO”) the responsibility for applying the valuation methods. In the event that market quotes are not readily available, and the security or asset cannot be valued pursuant to one of the valuation methods, the value of the security or asset will be determined in good faith by the Valuation Committee of the Board of Trustees, generally based upon recommendations provided by PIMCO.
Market quotes are considered not readily available in circumstances where there is an absence of current or reliable market-based data (e.g., trade information, bid/asked information, broker quotes), including where events occur after the close of the relevant market, but prior to the close of regular trading, that materially affect the values of the Portfolio’s securities or assets. In addition, market quotes are considered not readily available when, due to extraordinary circumstances, the exchanges or markets on which the securities trade do not open for trading for the entire day and no other market prices are available. The Board has delegated to PIMCO the responsibility for monitoring significant events that may materially affect the values of the Portfolio’s securities or assets and for determining whether the value of the applicable securities or assets should be re-evaluated in light of such significant events. When the Portfolio uses fair value pricing to determine its NAV, securities will not be priced on the basis of quotations from the primary market in which they are traded, but rather may be priced by another method that the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction believe accurately reflects fair value. The Trust’s policy is intended to result in a calculation of the Portfolio’s NAV that fairly reflects security values as of the time of pricing. However, fair values determined by the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction may not accurately reflect the price that the Portfolio could obtain for a security if it were to dispose of that security as of the time of pricing. Because foreign securities can trade on non-business days, the NAV of the Portfolio may change on days when shareholders will not be able to purchase or redeem shares. The prices used by the Portfolio may differ from the value that would be realized if the securities were sold and the differences could be material to the financial statements.
Securities Transactions and Investment Income. Securities transactions are recorded as of the trade date. Securities purchased or sold on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis may be settled a month or more after the trade date. Realized gains and losses from securities sold are recorded on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Portfolio is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, adjusted for the accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis. Paydown gains and losses on mortgage-related or asset-backed securities are recorded as components of interest income in the Statement of Operations.
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends from net investment income, if any, are declared on each day the Portfolio is open for business and are distributed to shareholders monthly. Net realized capital gains earned by the Portfolio, if any, will be distributed no less frequently than once each year. Most shareholders choose to reinvest their dividends and capital gain distribution in additional shares of the Portfolio.
Income dividends and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP. Differences between tax regulations and GAAP may change the fiscal year when income and capital items are recognized for tax and GAAP purposes. Examples of events that give rise to timing differences include wash sales, straddles, net operating losses and capital loss carryforwards. Further, the character of investment income and capital gains may be different for certain transactions under the two methods of accounting. Examples of characterization differences include the treatment of mortgage paydowns, swaps, foreign currency transactions and contingent debt instruments. As a result, income dividends and capital gain distributions declared during a fiscal period may differ significantly from the net investment income and realized capital gain reported in the Portfolio’s annual financial statements presented under GAAP.
Distributions classified as a tax basis return of capital, if any, are reflected in the accompanying Statements of Changes in Net Assets and have been reclassified to paid in capital. In addition, other amounts have been reclassified between undistributed net investment income, accumulated undistributed net realized gains

or losses and/or paid in capital to more appropriately conform financial accounting to tax characterizations of dividend distributions.
Multiclass Operations. Each class offered by the Portfolio has equal rights as to assets and voting privileges (except that shareholders of a class have exclusive voting rights regarding any matter relating solely to that class of shares). Income and non-class specific expenses of the Portfolio are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative value of settled shares. Realized and unrealized capital gains and losses of the Portfolio are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative net assets of each class. Class specific expenses, where applicable, currently include administrative, distribution and servicing fees.
Delayed-Delivery Transactions. The Portfolio may purchase or sell securities on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis. These transactions involve a commitment by the Portfolio to purchase or sell securities for a predetermined price or yield, with payment and delivery taking place beyond the customary settlement period. When delayed-delivery purchases are outstanding, the Portfolio will designate liquid assets in an amount sufficient to meet the purchase price. When purchasing a security on a delayed-delivery basis, the Portfolio assumes the rights and risks of ownership of the security, including the risk of price and yield fluctuations, and takes such fluctuations into account when determining its net asset value. The Portfolio may dispose of or renegotiate a delayed-delivery transaction after it is entered into, and may sell when-issued securities before they are delivered, which may result in a capital gain or loss. When the Portfolio has sold a security on a delayed-delivery basis, the Portfolio does not participate in future gains and losses with respect to the security.
Federal Income Taxes. The Portfolio intends to qualify as a regulated investment company under sub-chapter M of the Internal Revenue Code and distribute all of its taxable income and net realized gains, if applicable, to shareholders. Accordingly, no provision for Federal income taxes has been made.
Foreign Currency. The accounting records of the Portfolio are maintained in U.S. dollar. The market values of foreign securities, currency holdings and other assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollar based on the current exchange rates each business day. Fluctuations in the value of currency holdings and other assets and liabilities resulting from changes in exchange rates are recorded as unrealized foreign currency gains or losses. Realized gains or losses and unrealized appreciation or depreciation on investment securities and income and expenses are translated on the respective dates of such transactions. The effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on investments in securities are not segregated in the Statement of Operations from the effects of changes in market prices of those securities, but are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss on investment securities.

Non-U.S. currency symbols utilized throughout the report are defined as follows: |
CNY | | Chinese Yuan Renminbi | | | | |
EUR | | Euro | | | | |
JPY | | Japanese Yen | | | | |
Forward Currency Transactions. The Portfolio may enter into forward currency contracts in connection with settling planned purchases or sales of securities, to hedge the currency exposure associated with some or all of the Portfolio’s securities or as a part of an investment strategy. A forward currency contract is an agreement between two parties to buy and sell a currency at a set price on a future date. The market value of a forward currency contract fluctuates with changes in forward currency exchange rates. Forward currency contracts are marked to market daily and the change in value is recorded by the Portfolio as an unrealized gain or loss. Realized gains or losses equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed are recorded upon delivery or receipt of the currency or, if a forward currency contract is offset by entering into another forward currency contract with the same broker, upon settlement of the net gain or loss. These contracts may involve market risk in excess of the unrealized gain or loss reflected in the Portfolio’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities. In addition, the Portfolio could be exposed to risk if the counterparties are unable to meet the terms of the contracts or if the value of the currency changes unfavorably to the U.S. dollar.
Futures Contracts. The Portfolio is authorized to enter into futures contracts. The Portfolio may use futures contracts to manage its exposure to the securities markets or to movements in interest rates and currency values. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are the imperfect correlation between the change in market value of the securities held by the Portfolio and the prices of futures contracts, the possibility of an illiquid market, and the inability of the counterparty to meet the terms of the contract. Futures contracts are valued based upon their quoted daily settlement prices. Upon entering into a futures contract, the Portfolio is required to deposit with its custodian, in a segregated account in the name of the futures broker, an amount of cash or U.S. Government and Agency Obligations in accordance with the initial margin requirements of the broker or exchange. Futures contracts are marked to market daily and an appropriate payable or receivable for the change in value (“variation margin”) is recorded by the Portfolio. Gains or losses are recognized but not considered realized until the contracts expire or are closed. Futures contracts involve, to varying degrees, risk of loss in excess of the variation margin disclosed in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
Guarantees and Indemnifications. Under the Trust’s organizational documents, each Trustee, officer, employee or other agent of the Trust (including the Trust’s investment manager) is indemnified against certain liabilities that may arise out of performance of their duties to the Portfolio. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Portfolio enters into contracts that contain a variety of indemnification clauses. The Portfolio’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Portfolio that have not yet occurred. However, the Portfolio has not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts, and believes the risk of loss to be remote.
Options Contracts. The Portfolio may write call and put options on futures, swaps, securities or currencies it owns or in which it may invest. Writing put options tends to increase the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. Writing call options tends to decrease the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. When the Portfolio writes a call or put option, an amount equal to the premium received is recorded as a liability and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the option written. These liabilities are reflected as written options outstanding in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Certain options may be written with premiums to determined on a future date. The premiums for these options are based upon implied volatility parameters at specified terms. Premiums received from writing options which expire are treated as realized gains. Premiums received from writing options which are exercised or closed are added to the proceeds or offset against amounts paid on the underlying future, swap, security or currency transaction to determine the realized gain or loss. The Portfolio as a writer of an option has no control over whether the underlying future, swap, security or currency may be sold (call) or purchased (put) and as a result bears the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the future, swap, security or currency underlying the written option. Certain options may be purchase with premiums to determined on a future date. The premiums for these options are based upon implied volatility parameters at specified terms. There is the risk the Portfolio may not be able to enter into a closing transaction because of an illiquid market.

Notes to Financial Statements (Cont.)
The Portfolio may also purchase put and call options. Purchasing call options tends to increase the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. Purchasing put options tends to decrease the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. The Portfolio pays a premium which is included in the Portfolio’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an investment and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the option. Premiums paid for purchasing options which expire are treated as realized losses. Certain options may be purchased with premiums to be determined on a future date. The premiums for these options are based upon implied volatility parameters at specified terms. The risk associated with purchasing put and call options is limited to the premium paid. Premiums paid for purchasing options which are exercised or closed are added to the amounts paid or offset against the proceeds on the underlying future, swap, security or currency transaction to determine the realized gain or loss.
Repurchase Agreements. The Portfolio may engage in repurchase transactions. Under the terms of a typical repurchase agreement, the Portfolio takes possession of an underlying debt obligation subject to an obligation of the seller to repurchase, and the Portfolio to resell, the obligation at an agreed-upon price and time. The market value of the collateral must be equal to or exceed at all times the total amount of the repurchase obligations, including interest. Securities purchased under repurchase agreements are reflected as an asset in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Generally, in the event of counterparty default, the Portfolio has the right to use the collateral to offset losses incurred. If the counterparty should default, the Portfolio will seek to sell the securities which it holds as collateral. This could involve procedural costs or delays in addition to a loss on the securities if their value should fall below their repurchase price.
Short Sales. The Portfolio may enter into short sales transactions. A short sale is a transaction in which the Portfolio sells securities it does not own in anticipation of a decline in the market price of the securities. Securities sold in short sale transactions and interest payable on such securities, if any, are reflected as a liability in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The Portfolio is obligated to deliver securities at the market price at the time the short position is closed. Possible losses from short sales may be unlimited, whereas losses from purchases cannot exceed the total amount invested.
Mortgage-Related and Other Asset-Backed Securities. The Portfolio may invest in mortgage-related or other asset-backed securities. These securities include mortgage pass-through securities, collateralized mortgage obligations (“CMOs”), commercial mortgage-backed securities, mortgage dollar rolls, CMO residuals, stripped mortgage-backed securities (“SMBSs”) and other securities that directly or indirectly represent a participation in, or are secured by and payable from, mortgage loans on real property. The value of some mortgage- or asset-backed securities may be particularly sensitive to changes in prevailing interest rates. Early repayment of principal on some mortgage-related securities may expose a Portfolio to a lower rate of return upon reinvestment of principal. The value of these securities may fluctuate in response to the market’s perception of the creditworthiness of the issuers. Additionally, although mortgages and mortgage-related securities are generally supported by some form of government or private guarantee and/or insurance, there is no assurance that private guarantors or insurers will meet their obligations.
One type of SMBS has one class receiving all of the interest from the mortgage assets (the interest-only, or “IO” class), while the other class will receive all of the principal (the principal-only, or “PO” class). Payments received for IOs are included in interest income in the Statement of Operations. Because principal will not be received at the maturity of an IO, adjustments are made to the book value of the security on a daily basis until maturity. These adjustments are included in interest income in the Statement of Operations. Payments received for POs are treated as reductions to the cost and par value of the securities.
Swap Agreements. The Portfolio may engage in swap transactions, including, but not limited to, swap agreements on interest rate, total return, forward spread-lock and credit default to manage its exposure to interest rates and credit risk. In connection with these agreements, securities may be identified as collateral in accordance with the terms of the respective swap agreements.
Interest rate swap agreements involve the exchange by the Portfolio with another party of their respective commitments to pay or receive interest, e.g., an exchange of floating rate payments for fixed rate payments with respect to the notional amount of principal.
Swaps are marked to market daily based upon quotations from market makers and the change in value, if any, is recorded as unrealized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Payments received or made at the beginning of the measurement period are reflected as such in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. These upfront payments are recorded as realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations upon termination or maturity of the swap. A liquidation payment received or made at the termination of the swap is recorded as realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Net periodic payments received or paid by the Portfolio are included as part of realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Entering into these agreements involves, to varying degrees, elements of credit, market and documentation risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Such risks involve the possibility that there will be no liquid market for these agreements, that the counterparty to the agreements may default on its obligation to perform or disagree as to the meaning of contractual terms in the agreements and that there may be unfavorable changes in interest rates.
U.S. Government Agencies or Government-Sponsored Enterprises. Securities issued by U.S. Government agencies or government-sponsored enterprises may not be guaranteed by the U.S. Treasury. The Government National Mortgage Association (“GNMA”), a wholly owned U.S. Government corporation, is authorized to guarantee, with the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government, the timely payment of principal and interest on securities issued by institutions approved by GNMA and backed by pools of mortgages insured by the Federal Housing Administration or guaranteed by the Department of Veterans Affairs. Government-related guarantors (i.e., not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government) include the Federal National Mortgage Association (“FNMA” or “Fannie Mae”) and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“FHLMC” or “Freddie Mac”). Pass-through securities issued by FNMA are guaranteed as to timely payment of principal and interest by FNMA but are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government. FHLMC guarantees the timely payment of interest and ultimate collection of principal, but its participation certificates are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government.
New Accounting Policies. In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes—an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (the “Interpretation”). The Interpretation is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. Management is currently evaluating the application of the Interpretation to the Portfolio and will provide additional information in relation to the Interpretation in the Portfolio’s annual financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2006.
3. FEES, EXPENSES, AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Investment Advisory Fee. PIMCO is a majority-owned subsidiary of Allianz Global Investors of America L.P. (“AGI”), and serves as investment adviser (the “Adviser”) to the Trust, pursuant to an investment advisory contract. The Adviser receives a monthly fee at an annual rate based on average daily net assets of the Portfolio. The Advisory Fee is charged at an annual rate of 0.25%.

Administration Fee. PIMCO serves as administrator (the “Administrator”), and provides administrative services to the Trust for which it receives a monthly administrative fee based on average daily net assets of the Portfolio. As the Administrator, PIMCO bears the costs of various third-party services, including audit, custodial, portfolio accounting, legal, transfer agency and printing costs. The Administration Fee is charged at the annual rate of 0.20%.
Distribution and Servicing Fees. Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC (“AGID”) is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of AGI and serves as the distributor of the Trust’s shares. The Trust is permitted to reimburse AGID on a quarterly basis, out of the Administrative Class assets of the Portfolio in the amount of 0.15% on an annual basis of the average daily net assets of that class, for payments made to financial intermediaries that provide services in connection with the distribution of shares or administration of plans or programs that use Portfolio shares as their funding medium. The effective rate paid to AGID was 0.15% during the current fiscal year.
Expenses. The Trust is responsible for the following expenses: (i) salaries and other compensation of any of the Trust’s executive officers and employees who are not officers, directors, stockholders or employees of PIMCO or its subsidiaries or affiliates; (ii) taxes and governmental fees; (iii) brokerage fees and commissions and other portfolio transaction expenses; (iv) the costs of borrowing money, including interest expenses and bank overdraft charges; (v) fees and expenses of the Trustees who are not “interested persons” of PIMCO or the Trust, and any counsel retained exclusively for their benefit; (vi) extraordinary expenses, including costs of litigation and indemnification expenses; (vii) organization expenses and (viii) any expenses allocated or allocable to a specific class of shares, which include service fees payable with respect to the Administrative Class shares and may include certain other expenses as permitted by the Trust’s Multiple Class Plan adopted pursuant to Rule 18f-3 under the Act and subject to review and approval by the Trustees. The ratio of expenses to average net assets per share class, as disclosed in the Financial Highlights, may differ from the annual portfolio operating expenses per share class as disclosed in the Prospectus for the reasons set forth above.
For the current period ended June 30, 2006, each unaffiliated Trustee received an annual retainer of $15,000, plus $2,000 for each Board of Trustees quarterly meeting attended, $500 for each Board of Trustees committee meeting attended and $500 for each special board meeting attended, plus reimbursement of related expenses. In addition, each Committee Chair received an additional annual retainer of $500 and each Audit Committee Chair received an additional annual retainer of $1,500. These expenses are allocated on a pro-rata basis to each Portfolio of the Trust according to its respective net assets. The Trust pays no compensation directly to any Trustee or any other officer who is affiliated with the Administrator, all of whom receive remuneration for their services to the Trust from the Administrator or its affiliates.
4. PURCHASES AND SALES OF SECURITIES
The length of time the Portfolio has held a particular security is not generally a consideration in investment decisions. A change in the securities held by the Portfolio is known as “portfolio turnover”. The Portfolio may engage in frequent and active trading of portfolio securities to achieve its investment objective, particularly during periods of volatile market movements. High portfolio turnover (e.g., over 100%) involves correspondingly greater expenses to the Portfolio, including brokerage commissions or dealer mark-ups and other transaction costs on the sale of securities and reinvestments in other securities. Such sales may also result in realization of taxable capital gains, including short-term capital gains (which are generally taxed at ordinary income tax rates). The trading costs and tax effects associated with portfolio turnover may adversely affect the Portfolio’s performance.
Purchases and sales of securities (excluding short-term investments) for the period ended June 30, 2006 were as follows (amounts in thousands):
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
U.S Government/Agency | | | | All Other |

8. REGULATORY AND LITIGATION MATTERS
On June 1, 2004, the Attorney General of the State of New Jersey announced that it had dismissed PIMCO from a complaint filed by the New Jersey Attorney General on February 17, 2004, and that it had entered into a settlement agreement (the “New Jersey Settlement”) with Allianz Global Investors of America L.P. (“AGI”) (formerly known as Allianz Dresdner Asset Management of America L.P.), PEA Capital LLC (an entity affiliated with PIMCO through common ownership) (“PEA”) and Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC (“AGID”), in connection with the same matter. In the New Jersey Settlement, AGI, PEA and AGID neither admitted nor denied the allegations or conclusions of law, but did agree to pay New Jersey a civil fine of $15 million and $3 million for investigative costs and further potential enforcement initiatives against unrelated parties. They also undertook to implement certain governance changes. The complaint relating to the New Jersey Settlement alleged, among other things, that AGI, PEA and AGID had failed to disclose that they improperly allowed certain hedge funds to engage in “market timing” in certain funds. The complaint sought injunctive relief, civil monetary penalties, restitution and disgorgement of profits.
Since February 2004, PIMCO, AGI, PEA, AGID, and certain of their affiliates, including the PIMCO Funds, the Allianz Funds (formerly known as PIMCO Funds: Multi-Manager Series), and the Trustees and employees of the PIMCO Funds, have been named as defendants in fifteen lawsuits filed in various jurisdictions. Eleven of those lawsuits concern “market timing,” and they have been transferred to and consolidated for pre-trial proceedings in a multi-district litigation proceeding in the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland; the other four lawsuits concern “revenue sharing” and have been consolidated into a single action in the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut. The lawsuits have been commenced as putative class actions on behalf of investors who purchased, held or redeemed shares of the various series of the PIMCO Funds and the Allianz Funds during specified periods, or as derivative actions on behalf of the PIMCO Funds and Allianz Funds.
The market timing actions in the District of Maryland generally allege that certain hedge funds were allowed to engage in “market timing” in certain of the PIMCO Funds and the Allianz Funds and this alleged activity was not disclosed. Pursuant to tolling agreements entered into with the derivative and class action plaintiffs, PIMCO, the Trustees, and certain employees of PIMCO who were previously named as defendants have all been dropped as defendants in the market timing actions; the plaintiffs continue to assert claims on behalf of the shareholders of the PIMCO Funds or on behalf of the PIMCO Funds themselves against other defendants. By order dated November 3, 2005, the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland granted the PIMCO Funds’ motion to dismiss claims asserted against it in a consolidated amended complaint where the PIMCO Funds were named, in the complaint, as a nominal defendant. The revenue sharing action in the District of Connecticut generally alleges that fund assets were inappropriately used to pay brokers to promote the PIMCO Funds and Allianz Funds, including directing fund brokerage transactions to such brokers, and that such alleged arrangements were not fully disclosed to shareholders. On August 11, 2005 the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut conducted a hearing on defendants’ motion to dismiss the consolidated amended complaint in the revenue sharing action but has not yet ruled on the motion to dismiss. The market timing and revenue sharing lawsuits seek, among other things, unspecified compensatory damages plus interest and, in some cases, punitive damages, the rescission of investment advisory contracts, the return of fees paid under those contracts and restitution.
Under Section 9(a) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“1940 Act”), if the New Jersey Settlement or any of the lawsuits described above were to result in a court injunction against AGI, PEA, AGID and/or their affiliates, PIMCO could, in the absence of exemptive relief granted by the SEC, be barred from serving as an investment adviser, and AGID could be barred from serving as principal underwriter, to any registered investment company, including the Portfolios of the Trust. In connection with an inquiry from the SEC concerning the status of the New Jersey Settlement under Section 9(a), PEA, AGID, AGI and certain of their affiliates (including PIMCO) (together, the “Applicants”) have sought exemptive relief from the SEC under Section 9(c) of the 1940 Act. The SEC has granted the Applicants a temporary exemption from the provisions of Section 9(a) with respect to the New Jersey Settlement until the earlier of (i) September 13, 2006 and (ii) the date on which the SEC takes final action on their application for a permanent order. There is no assurance that the SEC will issue a permanent order.
Two nearly identical class action civil complaints have been filed in August 2005, in the Northern District of Illinois Eastern Division alleging that the plaintiffs each purchased and sold a 10-year Treasury note futures contract and suffered damages from an alleged shortage when PIMCO held both physical and futures positions in 10-year Treasury notes for its client accounts. The two actions have been consolidated into one action, and the two separate complaints have been replaced by a consolidated complaint. PIMCO is a named defendant, and the PIMCO Funds have been added as a defendant, to the consolidated action. PIMCO strongly believes the complaint (and any consolidated complaint filed hereafter) is without merit and intends to vigorously defend itself.
Certain Portfolios of the Trust were recently served in an adversary proceeding brought by the Official Committee of Asbestos Claimants of G-I Holdings, Inc. in G-I Holdings, Inc.’s bankruptcy in the District of New Jersey. PIMCO was previously named in this lawsuit and remains a defendant. The plaintiff seeks to recover for the bankruptcy estate assets that were transferred by the predecessor entity of G-I Holdings, Inc. to a wholly-owned subsidiary in 1994. The subsidiary has since issued notes, of which certain Portfolios of the Trust are alleged to be holders. The complaint alleges that in 2000, more than two hundred noteholders—including certain Portfolios of the Trust—were granted a second priority lien on the assets of the subsidiary in exchange for their consent to a refinancing transaction and the granting of a first priority lien to the lending banks. The plaintiff is seeking invalidation of the lien in favor of the noteholders and/or the value of the lien.
It is possible that these matters and/or other developments resulting from these matters could result in increased fund redemptions or other adverse consequences to the Portfolios. However, PIMCO and AGID believe that these matters are not likely to have a material adverse effect on the Portfolios or on PIMCO’s or AGID’s ability to perform their respective investment advisory or distribution services relating to the Portfolios.

Chairman’s Letter
Dear PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust Shareholder:
It is our pleasure to present to you the semiannual report for the PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust covering the six-month period ended June 30, 2006.
Highlights of the global bond markets during the six-month period included:
| n | | Most fixed-income sectors lost ground during the first half of 2006, as concern about accelerating inflation and central bank tightening pushed interest rates higher worldwide. The benchmark Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index (which includes Treasury, Investment-Grade Corporate, and Residential Mortgage-Backed Securities) returned -0.72% for the first six months of the year. On June 30, the benchmark ten-year Treasury yielded 5.14%, 0.75% higher than at the start of the year. The U.S. yield curve remained flat as shorter-maturity yields rose by a comparable amount. |
| n | | The Federal Reserve tightened four times during the reporting period, bringing the Federal Funds Rate to 5.25%. The increase near the end of the period was the Federal Reserve’s 17th consecutive rate hike since the start of its tightening cycle in 2004. The Federal Reserve was not alone, as central banks in Europe, India, and China tightened credit in unison for the first time since 2000. The Bank of Japan, whose zero-interest-rate policy has flooded global markets with liquidity, looked set to reverse this policy in the coming months. |
In these pages please find a more complete Portfolio review as it relates to financial-market activities, as well as details about total-return investment performance for the six-month reporting period. Thank you for the trust you have placed in us. We will continue to work diligently to meet your investment needs.
Sincerely,

Brent R. Harris
Chairman, PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust

Important Information About the Portfolio
PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust (the “Trust”) is an open-end management investment company currently consisting of nineteen separate investment portfolios, including the Short-Term Portfolio (the “Portfolio”). The Portfolio is only available as a funding vehicle under variable life insurance policies or variable annuity contracts issued by insurance companies (“Variable Contracts”). Individuals may not purchase shares of the Portfolio directly. Shares of the Portfolio also may be sold to qualified pension and retirement plans outside of the separate account context.
We believe that bond funds have an important role to play in a well diversified investment portfolio. It is important to note, however, that in an environment where interest rates may trend upward, rising rates would negatively impact the performance of most bond funds, and fixed-income securities held by a fund are likely to decrease in value. The price volatility of fixed-income securities can also increase during periods of rising interest rates resulting in increased losses to a fund. Bond funds and individual bonds with a longer duration (a measure of the expected life of a security) tend to be more sensitive to changes in interest rates, usually making them more volatile than securities or funds with shorter durations. The longer-term performance of most bond funds has benefited from capital gains in part resulting from an extended period of declining interest rates. In the event interest rates increase, these capital gains should not be expected to recur.
The Portfolio may be subject to various risks in addition to those described above. Some of these risks may include, but are not limited to, the following: credit risk, high yield risk, market risk, issuer risk, derivatives risk, mortgage risk, non-U.S. investment risk, currency risk, leveraging risk and management risk. A complete description of these risks is contained in the Portfolio’s prospectus. The Portfolio may use derivative instruments for hedging purposes or as part of an investment strategy. Use of these instruments may involve certain costs and risks such as liquidity risk, interest rate risk, market risk, credit risk, management risk and the risk that the Portfolio could not close out a position when it would be most advantageous to do so. A Portfolio investing in derivatives could lose more than the principal amount invested in these instruments. Investing in non-U.S. securities may entail risk due to non-U.S. economic and political developments.
On the performance summary page in this Semiannual Report, the Total Return Investment Performance table measures performance assuming that all dividend and capital gain distributions were reinvested.
An investment in the Portfolio is not a deposit of a bank and is not guaranteed or insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. It is possible to lose money on investments in the Portfolio.
PIMCO has adopted written proxy voting policies and procedures (“Proxy Policy”) as required by Rule 206(4)-6 under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940. The Proxy Policy has been adopted by the Trust as the policies and procedures that PIMCO will use when voting proxies on behalf of the Portfolio. Copies of the written Proxy Policy and the factors that PIMCO may consider in determining how to vote proxies for the Portfolio, and information about how the Portfolio voted proxies relating to portfolio securities held during the most recent twelve-month period ended June 30, are available without charge, upon request, by calling the Trust at 1-866-746-2606 and on the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) website at http://www.sec.gov.
The Portfolio files its complete schedule of portfolio holdings with the SEC for the first and third quarters of each fiscal year on Form N-Q. A copy of the Trust’s Form N-Q is available on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov and may be reviewed and copied at the SEC’s Public Reference Room in Washington D.C. Information on the operation of the Public Reference Room may be obtained by calling 1-800-SEC-0330.
PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust is distributed by Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC, 2187 Atlantic Street, Stamford, CT 06902.

The following disclosure provides important information regarding the Portfolio’s Expense Example (“Example” or “Expense Example”), which appears in this Semiannual Report. Please refer to this information when reviewing the Expense Example for the Portfolio.
Example
As a shareholder of the Portfolio, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs and (2) ongoing costs, including advisory and administrative fees; distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees (Administrative Class only); and other Portfolio expenses. The Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Portfolio and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Expense Example does not reflect any fees or other expenses imposed by the Variable Contracts. If it did, the expenses reflected in the Expense Examples would be higher. The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period indicated, which is from January 1, 2006 to June 30, 2006.
Actual Expenses
The information in the table under the heading “Actual Performance” provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in these columns, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.60), then multiply the result by the number in the appropriate column for your share class, in the row titled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The information in the table under the heading “Hypothetical Performance (5% return before expenses)” provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Portfolio’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Portfolio’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Portfolio and other portfolios. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other portfolios.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs. Therefore, the information under the heading “Hypothetical Performance (5% return before expenses)” is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different portfolios. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.
The expense ratio may vary period to period because of various factors, such as an increase in expenses not covered by the advisory and administrative fees (such as expenses of the trustees and their counsel or litigation expense).
Portfolio Benchmark
Citigroup 3-Month Treasury Bill Index is an unmanaged index representing monthly return equivalents of yield averages of the last 3-Month Treasury Bill issues. It is not possible to invest directly in the index.

** The Institutional Class shares commenced operations on 04/28/00. Index comparisons began on 04/30/00.
Past performance is no guarantee of future results. The performance quoted represents past performance. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so the Portfolio shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. The Portfolio’s performance does not reflect the deduction of additional charges and expenses imposed in connection with investing in Variable Contracts, which will reduce returns. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. Performance data current to the most recent month-end is available by calling (800) 927-4648.

Ending Account Value (06/30/06) | | $ | 1,018.00 | | | | $ | 1,022.56 |
Expenses Paid During Period† | | $ | 2.25 | | | | $ | 2.26 |
† Expenses are equal to the Portfolio’s Institutional Class annualized expense ratio of 0.45%, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 181/365 (to reflect the one-half year period). Overall fees and expenses of investing in the Portfolio will be higher because the example does not reflect Variable Contract fees and expenses.
Please refer to page 3 herein for a description of the Portfolio’s benchmark and an explanation of the information presented in the above Expense Example.
Portfolio Insights
» | | The PIMCO Short-Term Portfolio seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing under normal circumstances at least 65% of its total assets in a diversified portfolio of Fixed-Income Instruments of varying maturities. |
» | | The first half of the year was a difficult environment for the Short-Term strategy as most bonds lagged money market instruments; concern about accelerating inflation and central bank tightening pushed interest rates higher worldwide. |
» | | U.S. interest rate exposure was the dominant cause of underperformance as Federal Reserve rate hikes totaled 1.00% during the first half of the year. |
» | | The Portfolio’s curve steepening bias was a negative contributor to performance as the U.S. treasury yield curve flattened in conjunction with increasing rates—three month rates increased approximately 0.90% while intermediate rates only increased about by 0.75%. |
» | | Broad diversification to higher-yielding bond sectors, including mortgages, corporates, and emerging market securities, helped partially buffer the underperformance associated with rising rates. |
» | | Asset-backed bonds helped returns amid strong demand for their higher yield relative to money market instruments and for their collateral protection. |
» | | Long exposure to the Yen and to Euro currency helped performance as both currencies appreciated relative to the U.S. dollar during the first half of the year. |

Notes to Financial Statements
1. ORGANIZATION
The Short-Term Portfolio (the “Portfolio”) is a series of the PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust (the “Trust”). The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “Act”), as amended, as an open-end investment management company organized as a Delaware business trust on October 3, 1997. The Portfolio offers two classes of shares: Institutional and Administrative. Information presented in these financial statements pertains to the Institutional Class of the Portfolio. Certain detailed financial information for the Administrative Class is provided separately and is available upon request. The Trust is designed to be used as an investment vehicle by Separate Accounts of insurance companies that fund variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies and by qualified pension and retirement plans.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Portfolio in the preparation of its financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Security Valuation. Portfolio securities are valued as of the close of regular trading (normally 4:00 p.m., Eastern Time) on each day that the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) is open. Portfolio securities and other assets for which market quotes are readily available are stated at market value. Market value is generally determined on the basis of last reported sales prices, or if no sales are reported, based on quotes obtained from a quotation reporting system, established market makers, or pricing services. Fixed-income securities and non-exchange traded derivatives are normally valued on the basis of quotes obtained from brokers and dealers or pricing services. Prices obtained from independent pricing services use information provided by market makers or estimates of market values obtained from yield data relating to investments or securities with similar characteristics. Certain fixed-income securities purchased on a delayed-delivery basis are marked to market daily until settlement at the forward settlement date. Short-term investments having a maturity of 60 days or less are generally valued at amortized cost. Exchange traded options, futures and options on futures are valued at the settlement price determined by the relevant exchange.
Investments initially valued in currencies other than the U.S. dollar are converted to the U.S. dollar using exchange rates obtained from pricing services. As a result, the NAV of the Portfolio’s shares may be affected by changes in the value of currencies in relation to the U.S. dollar. The value of securities traded in markets outside the United States or denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar may be affected significantly on a day that the NYSE is closed and an investor is not able to purchase, redeem or exchange shares.
Securities and other assets for which market quotes are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction. The Board of Trustees has adopted methods for valuing securities and other assets in circumstances where market quotes are not readily available, and has delegated to Pacific Investment Management Company LLC (“PIMCO”) the responsibility for applying the valuation methods. In the event that market quotes are not readily available, and the security or asset cannot be valued pursuant to one of the valuation methods, the value of the security or asset will be determined in good faith by the Valuation Committee of the Board of Trustees, generally based upon recommendations provided by PIMCO.
Market quotes are considered not readily available in circumstances where there is an absence of current or reliable market-based data (e.g., trade information, bid/asked information, broker quotes), including where events occur after the close of the relevant market, but prior to the close of regular trading, that materially affect the values of the Portfolio’s securities or assets. In addition, market quotes are considered not readily available when, due to extraordinary circumstances, the exchanges or markets on which the securities trade do not open for trading for the entire day and no other market prices are available. The Board has delegated to PIMCO the responsibility for monitoring significant events that may materially affect the values of the Portfolio’s securities or assets and for determining whether the value of the applicable securities or assets should be re-evaluated in light of such significant events. When the Portfolio uses fair value pricing to determine its NAV, securities will not be priced on the basis of quotations from the primary market in which they are traded, but rather may be priced by another method that the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction believe accurately reflects fair value. The Trust’s policy is intended to result in a calculation of the Portfolio’s NAV that fairly reflects security values as of the time of pricing. However, fair values determined by the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction may not accurately reflect the price that the Portfolio could obtain for a security if it were to dispose of that security as of the time of pricing. Because foreign securities can trade on non-business days, the NAV of the Portfolio may change on days when shareholders will not be able to purchase or redeem shares. The prices used by the Portfolio may differ from the value that would be realized if the securities were sold and the differences could be material to the financial statements.
Securities Transactions and Investment Income. Securities transactions are recorded as of the trade date. Securities purchased or sold on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis may be settled a month or more after the trade date. Realized gains and losses from securities sold are recorded on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Portfolio is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, adjusted for the accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis. Paydown gains and losses on mortgage-related or asset-backed securities are recorded as components of interest income in the Statement of Operations.
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends from net investment income, if any, are declared on each day the Portfolio is open for business and are distributed to shareholders monthly. Net realized capital gains earned by the Portfolio, if any, will be distributed no less frequently than once each year. Most shareholders choose to reinvest their dividends and capital gain distribution in additional shares of the Portfolio.
Income dividends and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP. Differences between tax regulations and GAAP may change the fiscal year when income and capital items are recognized for tax and GAAP purposes. Examples of events that give rise to timing differences include wash sales, straddles, net operating losses and capital loss carryforwards. Further, the character of investment income and capital gains may be different for certain transactions under the two methods of accounting. Examples of characterization differences include the treatment of mortgage paydowns, swaps, foreign currency transactions and contingent debt instruments. As a result, income dividends and capital gain distributions declared during a fiscal period may differ significantly from the net investment income and realized capital gain reported in the Portfolio’s annual financial statements presented under GAAP.
Distributions classified as a tax basis return of capital, if any, are reflected in the accompanying Statements of Changes in Net Assets and have been reclassified to paid in capital. In addition, other amounts have been reclassified between undistributed net investment income, accumulated undistributed net realized gains

or losses and/or paid in capital to more appropriately conform financial accounting to tax characterizations of dividend distributions.
Multiclass Operations. Each class offered by the Portfolio has equal rights as to assets and voting privileges (except that shareholders of a class have exclusive voting rights regarding any matter relating solely to that class of shares). Income and non-class specific expenses of the Portfolio are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative value of settled shares. Realized and unrealized capital gains and losses of the Portfolio are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative net assets of each class. Class specific expenses, where applicable, currently include administrative, distribution and servicing fees.
Delayed-Delivery Transactions. The Portfolio may purchase or sell securities on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis. These transactions involve a commitment by the Portfolio to purchase or sell securities for a predetermined price or yield, with payment and delivery taking place beyond the customary settlement period. When delayed-delivery purchases are outstanding, the Portfolio will designate liquid assets in an amount sufficient to meet the purchase price. When purchasing a security on a delayed-delivery basis, the Portfolio assumes the rights and risks of ownership of the security, including the risk of price and yield fluctuations, and takes such fluctuations into account when determining its net asset value. The Portfolio may dispose of or renegotiate a delayed-delivery transaction after it is entered into, and may sell when-issued securities before they are delivered, which may result in a capital gain or loss. When the Portfolio has sold a security on a delayed-delivery basis, the Portfolio does not participate in future gains and losses with respect to the security.
Federal Income Taxes. The Portfolio intends to qualify as a regulated investment company under sub-chapter M of the Internal Revenue Code and distribute all of its taxable income and net realized gains, if applicable, to shareholders. Accordingly, no provision for Federal income taxes has been made.
Foreign Currency. The accounting records of the Portfolio are maintained in U.S. dollar. The market values of foreign securities, currency holdings and other assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollar based on the current exchange rates each business day. Fluctuations in the value of currency holdings and other assets and liabilities resulting from changes in exchange rates are recorded as unrealized foreign currency gains or losses. Realized gains or losses and unrealized appreciation or depreciation on investment securities and income and expenses are translated on the respective dates of such transactions. The effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on investments in securities are not segregated in the Statement of Operations from the effects of changes in market prices of those securities, but are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss on investment securities.

Forward Currency Transactions. The Portfolio may enter into forward currency contracts in connection with settling planned purchases or sales of securities, to hedge the currency exposure associated with some or all of the Portfolio’s securities or as a part of an investment strategy. A forward currency contract is an agreement between two parties to buy and sell a currency at a set price on a future date. The market value of a forward currency contract fluctuates with changes in forward currency exchange rates. Forward currency contracts are marked to market daily and the change in value is recorded by the Portfolio as an unrealized gain or loss. Realized gains or losses equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed are recorded upon delivery or receipt of the currency or, if a forward currency contract is offset by entering into another forward currency contract with the same broker, upon settlement of the net gain or loss. These contracts may involve market risk in excess of the unrealized gain or loss reflected in the Portfolio’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities. In addition, the Portfolio could be exposed to risk if the counterparties are unable to meet the terms of the contracts or if the value of the currency changes unfavorably to the U.S. dollar.
Futures Contracts. The Portfolio is authorized to enter into futures contracts. The Portfolio may use futures contracts to manage its exposure to the securities markets or to movements in interest rates and currency values. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are the imperfect correlation between the change in market value of the securities held by the Portfolio and the prices of futures contracts, the possibility of an illiquid market, and the inability of the counterparty to meet the terms of the contract. Futures contracts are valued based upon their quoted daily settlement prices. Upon entering into a futures contract, the Portfolio is required to deposit with its custodian, in a segregated account in the name of the futures broker, an amount of cash or U.S. Government and Agency Obligations in accordance with the initial margin requirements of the broker or exchange. Futures contracts are marked to market daily and an appropriate payable or receivable for the change in value (“variation margin”) is recorded by the Portfolio. Gains or losses are recognized but not considered realized until the contracts expire or are closed. Futures contracts involve, to varying degrees, risk of loss in excess of the variation margin disclosed in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
Guarantees and Indemnifications. Under the Trust’s organizational documents, each Trustee, officer, employee or other agent of the Trust (including the Trust’s investment manager) is indemnified against certain liabilities that may arise out of performance of their duties to the Portfolio. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Portfolio enters into contracts that contain a variety of indemnification clauses. The Portfolio’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Portfolio that have not yet occurred. However, the Portfolio has not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts, and believes the risk of loss to be remote.
Options Contracts. The Portfolio may write call and put options on futures, swaps, securities or currencies it owns or in which it may invest. Writing put options tends to increase the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. Writing call options tends to decrease the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. When the Portfolio writes a call or put option, an amount equal to the premium received is recorded as a liability and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the option written. These liabilities are reflected as written options outstanding in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Certain options may be written with premiums to determined on a future date. The premiums for these options are based upon implied volatility parameters at specified terms. Premiums received from writing options which expire are treated as realized gains. Premiums received from writing options which are exercised or closed are added to the proceeds or offset against amounts paid on the underlying future, swap, security or currency transaction to determine the realized gain or loss. The Portfolio as a writer of an option has no control over whether the underlying future, swap, security or currency may be sold (call) or purchased (put) and as a result bears the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the future, swap, security or currency underlying the written option. Certain options may be purchase with premiums to determined on a future date. The premiums for these options are based upon implied volatility parameters at specified terms. There is the risk the Portfolio may not be able to enter into a closing transaction because of an illiquid market.

Notes to Financial Statements (Cont.)
The Portfolio may also purchase put and call options. Purchasing call options tends to increase the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. Purchasing put options tends to decrease the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. The Portfolio pays a premium which is included in the Portfolio’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an investment and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the option. Premiums paid for purchasing options which expire are treated as realized losses. Certain options may be purchased with premiums to be determined on a future date. The premiums for these options are based upon implied volatility parameters at specified terms. The risk associated with purchasing put and call options is limited to the premium paid. Premiums paid for purchasing options which are exercised or closed are added to the amounts paid or offset against the proceeds on the underlying future, swap, security or currency transaction to determine the realized gain or loss.
Repurchase Agreements. The Portfolio may engage in repurchase transactions. Under the terms of a typical repurchase agreement, the Portfolio takes possession of an underlying debt obligation subject to an obligation of the seller to repurchase, and the Portfolio to resell, the obligation at an agreed-upon price and time. The market value of the collateral must be equal to or exceed at all times the total amount of the repurchase obligations, including interest. Securities purchased under repurchase agreements are reflected as an asset in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Generally, in the event of counterparty default, the Portfolio has the right to use the collateral to offset losses incurred. If the counterparty should default, the Portfolio will seek to sell the securities which it holds as collateral. This could involve procedural costs or delays in addition to a loss on the securities if their value should fall below their repurchase price.
Short Sales. The Portfolio may enter into short sales transactions. A short sale is a transaction in which the Portfolio sells securities it does not own in anticipation of a decline in the market price of the securities. Securities sold in short sale transactions and interest payable on such securities, if any, are reflected as a liability in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The Portfolio is obligated to deliver securities at the market price at the time the short position is closed. Possible losses from short sales may be unlimited, whereas losses from purchases cannot exceed the total amount invested.
Mortgage-Related and Other Asset-Backed Securities. The Portfolio may invest in mortgage-related or other asset-backed securities. These securities include mortgage pass-through securities, collateralized mortgage obligations (“CMOs”), commercial mortgage-backed securities, mortgage dollar rolls, CMO residuals, stripped mortgage-backed securities (“SMBSs”) and other securities that directly or indirectly represent a participation in, or are secured by and payable from, mortgage loans on real property. The value of some mortgage- or asset-backed securities may be particularly sensitive to changes in prevailing interest rates. Early repayment of principal on some mortgage-related securities may expose a Portfolio to a lower rate of return upon reinvestment of principal. The value of these securities may fluctuate in response to the market’s perception of the creditworthiness of the issuers. Additionally, although mortgages and mortgage-related securities are generally supported by some form of government or private guarantee and/or insurance, there is no assurance that private guarantors or insurers will meet their obligations.
One type of SMBS has one class receiving all of the interest from the mortgage assets (the interest-only, or “IO” class), while the other class will receive all of the principal (the principal-only, or “PO” class). Payments received for IOs are included in interest income in the Statement of Operations. Because principal will not be received at the maturity of an IO, adjustments are made to the book value of the security on a daily basis until maturity. These adjustments are included in interest income in the Statement of Operations. Payments received for POs are treated as reductions to the cost and par value of the securities.
Swap Agreements. The Portfolio may engage in swap transactions, including, but not limited to, swap agreements on interest rate, total return, forward spread-lock and credit default to manage its exposure to interest rates and credit risk. In connection with these agreements, securities may be identified as collateral in accordance with the terms of the respective swap agreements.
Interest rate swap agreements involve the exchange by the Portfolio with another party of their respective commitments to pay or receive interest, e.g., an exchange of floating rate payments for fixed rate payments with respect to the notional amount of principal.
Swaps are marked to market daily based upon quotations from market makers and the change in value, if any, is recorded as unrealized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Payments received or made at the beginning of the measurement period are reflected as such in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. These upfront payments are recorded as realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations upon termination or maturity of the swap. A liquidation payment received or made at the termination of the swap is recorded as realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Net periodic payments received or paid by the Portfolio are included as part of realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Entering into these agreements involves, to varying degrees, elements of credit, market and documentation risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Such risks involve the possibility that there will be no liquid market for these agreements, that the counterparty to the agreements may default on its obligation to perform or disagree as to the meaning of contractual terms in the agreements and that there may be unfavorable changes in interest rates.
U.S. Government Agencies or Government-Sponsored Enterprises. Securities issued by U.S. Government agencies or government-sponsored enterprises may not be guaranteed by the U.S. Treasury. The Government National Mortgage Association (“GNMA”), a wholly owned U.S. Government corporation, is authorized to guarantee, with the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government, the timely payment of principal and interest on securities issued by institutions approved by GNMA and backed by pools of mortgages insured by the Federal Housing Administration or guaranteed by the Department of Veterans Affairs. Government-related guarantors (i.e., not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government) include the Federal National Mortgage Association (“FNMA” or “Fannie Mae”) and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“FHLMC” or “Freddie Mac”). Pass-through securities issued by FNMA are guaranteed as to timely payment of principal and interest by FNMA but are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government. FHLMC guarantees the timely payment of interest and ultimate collection of principal, but its participation certificates are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government.
New Accounting Policies. In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes—an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (the “Interpretation”). The Interpretation is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. Management is currently evaluating the application of the Interpretation to the Portfolio and will provide additional information in relation to the Interpretation in the Portfolio’s annual financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2006.
3. FEES, EXPENSES, AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Investment Advisory Fee. PIMCO is a majority-owned subsidiary of Allianz Global Investors of America L.P. (“AGI”), and serves as investment adviser (the “Adviser”) to the Trust, pursuant to an investment advisory contract. The Adviser receives a monthly fee at an annual rate based on average daily net assets of the Portfolio. The Advisory Fee is charged at an annual rate of 0.25%.

Administration Fee. PIMCO serves as administrator (the “Administrator”), and provides administrative services to the Trust for which it receives a monthly administrative fee based on average daily net assets of the Portfolio. As the Administrator, PIMCO bears the costs of various third-party services, including audit, custodial, portfolio accounting, legal, transfer agency and printing costs. The Administration Fee is charged at the annual rate of 0.20%.
Distribution and Servicing Fees. Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC (“AGID”) is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of AGI and serves as the distributor of the Trust’s shares. The Trust is permitted to reimburse AGID on a quarterly basis, out of the Administrative Class assets of the Portfolio in the amount of 0.15% on an annual basis of the average daily net assets of that class, for payments made to financial intermediaries that provide services in connection with the distribution of shares or administration of plans or programs that use Portfolio shares as their funding medium. The effective rate paid to AGID was 0.15% during the current fiscal year.
Expenses. The Trust is responsible for the following expenses: (i) salaries and other compensation of any of the Trust’s executive officers and employees who are not officers, directors, stockholders or employees of PIMCO or its subsidiaries or affiliates; (ii) taxes and governmental fees; (iii) brokerage fees and commissions and other portfolio transaction expenses; (iv) the costs of borrowing money, including interest expenses and bank overdraft charges; (v) fees and expenses of the Trustees who are not “interested persons” of PIMCO or the Trust, and any counsel retained exclusively for their benefit; (vi) extraordinary expenses, including costs of litigation and indemnification expenses; (vii) organization expenses and (viii) any expenses allocated or allocable to a specific class of shares, which include service fees payable with respect to the Administrative Class shares and may include certain other expenses as permitted by the Trust’s Multiple Class Plan adopted pursuant to Rule 18f-3 under the Act and subject to review and approval by the Trustees. The ratio of expenses to average net assets per share class, as disclosed in the Financial Highlights, may differ from the annual portfolio operating expenses per share class as disclosed in the Prospectus for the reasons set forth above.
For the current period ended June 30, 2006, each unaffiliated Trustee received an annual retainer of $15,000, plus $2,000 for each Board of Trustees quarterly meeting attended, $500 for each Board of Trustees committee meeting attended and $500 for each special board meeting attended, plus reimbursement of related expenses. In addition, each Committee Chair received an additional annual retainer of $500 and each Audit Committee Chair received an additional annual retainer of $1,500. These expenses are allocated on a pro-rata basis to each Portfolio of the Trust according to its respective net assets. The Trust pays no compensation directly to any Trustee or any other officer who is affiliated with the Administrator, all of whom receive remuneration for their services to the Trust from the Administrator or its affiliates.
4. PURCHASES AND SALES OF SECURITIES
The length of time the Portfolio has held a particular security is not generally a consideration in investment decisions. A change in the securities held by the Portfolio is known as “portfolio turnover”. The Portfolio may engage in frequent and active trading of portfolio securities to achieve its investment objective, particularly during periods of volatile market movements. High portfolio turnover (e.g., over 100%) involves correspondingly greater expenses to the Portfolio, including brokerage commissions or dealer mark-ups and other transaction costs on the sale of securities and reinvestments in other securities. Such sales may also result in realization of taxable capital gains, including short-term capital gains (which are generally taxed at ordinary income tax rates). The trading costs and tax effects associated with portfolio turnover may adversely affect the Portfolio’s performance.
Purchases and sales of securities (excluding short-term investments) for the period ended June 30, 2006 were as follows (amounts in thousands):
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

8. REGULATORY AND LITIGATION MATTERS
On June 1, 2004, the Attorney General of the State of New Jersey announced that it had dismissed PIMCO from a complaint filed by the New Jersey Attorney General on February 17, 2004, and that it had entered into a settlement agreement (the “New Jersey Settlement”) with Allianz Global Investors of America L.P. (“AGI”) (formerly known as Allianz Dresdner Asset Management of America L.P.), PEA Capital LLC (an entity affiliated with PIMCO through common ownership) (“PEA”) and Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC (“AGID”), in connection with the same matter. In the New Jersey Settlement, AGI, PEA and AGID neither admitted nor denied the allegations or conclusions of law, but did agree to pay New Jersey a civil fine of $15 million and $3 million for investigative costs and further potential enforcement initiatives against unrelated parties. They also undertook to implement certain governance changes. The complaint relating to the New Jersey Settlement alleged, among other things, that AGI, PEA and AGID had failed to disclose that they improperly allowed certain hedge funds to engage in “market timing” in certain funds. The complaint sought injunctive relief, civil monetary penalties, restitution and disgorgement of profits.
Since February 2004, PIMCO, AGI, PEA, AGID, and certain of their affiliates, including the PIMCO Funds, the Allianz Funds (formerly known as PIMCO Funds: Multi-Manager Series), and the Trustees and employees of the PIMCO Funds, have been named as defendants in fifteen lawsuits filed in various jurisdictions. Eleven of those lawsuits concern “market timing,” and they have been transferred to and consolidated for pre-trial proceedings in a multi-district litigation proceeding in the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland; the other four lawsuits concern “revenue sharing” and have been consolidated into a single action in the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut. The lawsuits have been commenced as putative class actions on behalf of investors who purchased, held or redeemed shares of the various series of the PIMCO Funds and the Allianz Funds during specified periods, or as derivative actions on behalf of the PIMCO Funds and Allianz Funds.
The market timing actions in the District of Maryland generally allege that certain hedge funds were allowed to engage in “market timing” in certain of the PIMCO Funds and the Allianz Funds and this alleged activity was not disclosed. Pursuant to tolling agreements entered into with the derivative and class action plaintiffs, PIMCO, the Trustees, and certain employees of PIMCO who were previously named as defendants have all been dropped as defendants in the market timing actions; the plaintiffs continue to assert claims on behalf of the shareholders of the PIMCO Funds or on behalf of the PIMCO Funds themselves against other defendants. By order dated November 3, 2005, the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland granted the PIMCO Funds’ motion to dismiss claims asserted against it in a consolidated amended complaint where the PIMCO Funds were named, in the complaint, as a nominal defendant. The revenue sharing action in the District of Connecticut generally alleges that fund assets were inappropriately used to pay brokers to promote the PIMCO Funds and Allianz Funds, including directing fund brokerage transactions to such brokers, and that such alleged arrangements were not fully disclosed to shareholders. On August 11, 2005 the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut conducted a hearing on defendants’ motion to dismiss the consolidated amended complaint in the revenue sharing action but has not yet ruled on the motion to dismiss. The market timing and revenue sharing lawsuits seek, among other things, unspecified compensatory damages plus interest and, in some cases, punitive damages, the rescission of investment advisory contracts, the return of fees paid under those contracts and restitution.
Under Section 9(a) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“1940 Act”), if the New Jersey Settlement or any of the lawsuits described above were to result in a court injunction against AGI, PEA, AGID and/or their affiliates, PIMCO could, in the absence of exemptive relief granted by the SEC, be barred from serving as an investment adviser, and AGID could be barred from serving as principal underwriter, to any registered investment company, including the Portfolios of the Trust. In connection with an inquiry from the SEC concerning the status of the New Jersey Settlement under Section 9(a), PEA, AGID, AGI and certain of their affiliates (including PIMCO) (together, the “Applicants”) have sought exemptive relief from the SEC under Section 9(c) of the 1940 Act. The SEC has granted the Applicants a temporary exemption from the provisions of Section 9(a) with respect to the New Jersey Settlement until the earlier of (i) September 13, 2006 and (ii) the date on which the SEC takes final action on their application for a permanent order. There is no assurance that the SEC will issue a permanent order.
Two nearly identical class action civil complaints have been filed in August 2005, in the Northern District of Illinois Eastern Division alleging that the plaintiffs each purchased and sold a 10-year Treasury note futures contract and suffered damages from an alleged shortage when PIMCO held both physical and futures positions in 10-year Treasury notes for its client accounts. The two actions have been consolidated into one action, and the two separate complaints have been replaced by a consolidated complaint. PIMCO is a named defendant, and the PIMCO Funds have been added as a defendant, to the consolidated action. PIMCO strongly believes the complaint (and any consolidated complaint filed hereafter) is without merit and intends to vigorously defend itself.
Certain Portfolios of the Trust were recently served in an adversary proceeding brought by the Official Committee of Asbestos Claimants of G-I Holdings, Inc. in G-I Holdings, Inc.’s bankruptcy in the District of New Jersey. PIMCO was previously named in this lawsuit and remains a defendant. The plaintiff seeks to recover for the bankruptcy estate assets that were transferred by the predecessor entity of G-I Holdings, Inc. to a wholly-owned subsidiary in 1994. The subsidiary has since issued notes, of which certain Portfolios of the Trust are alleged to be holders. The complaint alleges that in 2000, more than two hundred noteholders—including certain Portfolios of the Trust—were granted a second priority lien on the assets of the subsidiary in exchange for their consent to a refinancing transaction and the granting of a first priority lien to the lending banks. The plaintiff is seeking invalidation of the lien in favor of the noteholders and/or the value of the lien.
It is possible that these matters and/or other developments resulting from these matters could result in increased fund redemptions or other adverse consequences to the Portfolios. However, PIMCO and AGID believe that these matters are not likely to have a material adverse effect on the Portfolios or on PIMCO’s or AGID’s ability to perform their respective investment advisory or distribution services relating to the Portfolios.

Chairman’s Letter
Dear PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust Shareholder:
It is our pleasure to present to you the semiannual report for the PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust covering the six-month period ended June 30, 2006.
Highlights of the global bond markets during the six-month period included:
| n | | Most fixed-income sectors lost ground during the first half of 2006, as concern about accelerating inflation and central bank tightening pushed interest rates higher worldwide. The benchmark Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index (which includes Treasury, Investment-Grade Corporate, and Residential Mortgage-Backed Securities) returned -0.72% for the first six months of the year. On June 30, the benchmark ten-year Treasury yielded 5.14%, 0.75% higher than at the start of the year. The U.S. yield curve remained flat as shorter-maturity yields rose by a comparable amount. |
| n | | The Federal Reserve tightened four times during the reporting period, bringing the Federal Funds Rate to 5.25%. The increase near the end of the period was the Federal Reserve’s 17th consecutive rate hike since the start of its tightening cycle in 2004. The Federal Reserve was not alone, as central banks in Europe, India, and China tightened credit in unison for the first time since 2000. The Bank of Japan, whose zero-interest-rate policy has flooded global markets with liquidity, looked set to reverse this policy in the coming months. |
In these pages please find a more complete Portfolio review as it relates to financial-market activities, as well as details about total-return investment performance for the six-month reporting period. Thank you for the trust you have placed in us. We will continue to work diligently to meet your investment needs.
Sincerely,

Brent R. Harris
Chairman, PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust

Important Information About the Portfolio
PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust (the “Trust”) is an open-end management investment company currently consisting of nineteen separate investment portfolios, including the StocksPLUS® Growth and Income Portfolio (the “Portfolio”). The Portfolio is only available as a funding vehicle under variable life insurance policies or variable annuity contracts issued by insurance companies (“Variable Contracts”). Individuals may not purchase shares of the Portfolio directly. Shares of the Portfolio also may be sold to qualified pension and retirement plans outside of the separate account context.
We believe that bond funds have an important role to play in a well diversified investment portfolio. It is important to note, however, that in an environment where interest rates may trend upward, rising rates would negatively impact the performance of most bond funds, and fixed-income securities held by a fund are likely to decrease in value. The price volatility of fixed-income securities can also increase during periods of rising interest rates resulting in increased losses to a fund. Bond funds and individual bonds with a longer duration (a measure of the expected life of a security) tend to be more sensitive to changes in interest rates, usually making them more volatile than securities or funds with shorter durations. The longer-term performance of most bond funds has benefited from capital gains in part resulting from an extended period of declining interest rates. In the event interest rates increase, these capital gains should not be expected to recur.
The Portfolio may be subject to various risks in addition to those described above. Some of these risks may include, but are not limited to, the following: credit risk, high yield risk, market risk, issuer risk, liquidity risk, derivatives risk, equity risk, mortgage risk, non-U.S. investment risk, currency risk, leveraging risk and management risk. A complete description of these risks is contained in the Portfolio’s prospectus. The Portfolio may use derivative instruments for hedging purposes or as part of an investment strategy. Use of these instruments may involve certain costs and risks such as liquidity risk, interest rate risk, market risk, credit risk, management risk and the risk that the Portfolio could not close out a position when it would be most advantageous to do so. A Portfolio investing in derivatives could lose more than the principal amount invested in these instruments. Investing in non-U.S. securities may entail risk due to non-U.S. economic and political developments; this risk may be increased when investing in emerging markets.
On the performance summary page in this Semiannual Report, the Total Return Investment Performance table measures performance assuming that all dividend and capital gain distributions were reinvested.
An investment in the Portfolio is not a deposit of a bank and is not guaranteed or insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. It is possible to lose money on investments in the Portfolio.
PIMCO has adopted written proxy voting policies and procedures (“Proxy Policy”) as required by Rule 206(4)-6 under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940. The Proxy Policy has been adopted by the Trust as the policies and procedures that PIMCO will use when voting proxies on behalf of the Portfolio. Copies of the written Proxy Policy and the factors that PIMCO may consider in determining how to vote proxies for the Portfolio, and information about how the Portfolio voted proxies relating to portfolio securities held during the most recent twelve-month period ended June 30, are available without charge, upon request, by calling the Trust at 1-866-746-2606 and on the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) website at http://www.sec.gov.
The Portfolio files its complete schedule of portfolio holdings with the SEC for the first and third quarters of each fiscal year on Form N-Q. A copy of the Trust’s Form N-Q is available on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov and may be reviewed and copied at the SEC’s Public Reference Room in Washington D.C. Information on the operation of the Public Reference Room may be obtained by calling 1-800-SEC-0330.

The following disclosure provides important information regarding the Portfolio’s Expense Example (“Example” or “Expense Example”), which appears in this Semiannual Report. Please refer to this information when reviewing the Expense Example for the Portfolio.
Example
As a shareholder of the Portfolio, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs and (2) ongoing costs, including advisory and administrative fees; distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees (Administrative Class only); and other Portfolio expenses. The Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Portfolio and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Expense Example does not reflect any fees or other expenses imposed by the Variable Contracts. If it did, the expenses reflected in the Expense Examples would be higher. The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period indicated, which is from January 1, 2006 to June 30, 2006.
Actual Expenses
The information in the table under the heading “Actual Performance” provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in these columns, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.60), then multiply the result by the number in the appropriate column for your share class, in the row titled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The information in the table under the heading “Hypothetical Performance (5% return before expenses)” provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Portfolio’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Portfolio’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Portfolio and other portfolios. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other portfolios.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs. Therefore, the information under the heading “Hypothetical Performance (5% return before expenses)” is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different portfolios. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.
The expense ratio may vary period to period because of various factors, such as an increase in expenses not covered by the advisory and administrative fees (such as expenses of the trustees and their counsel or litigation expense).
Portfolio Benchmark
The S&P 500 Index is an unmanaged index generally considered representative of the stock market as a whole. It is not possible to invest directly in the index.

* Cumulative return.
Past performance is no guarantee of future results. The performance quoted represents past performance. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so the Portfolio shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. The Portfolio’s performance does not reflect the deduction of additional charges and expenses imposed in connection with investing in Variable Contracts, which will reduce returns. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. Performance data current to the most recent month-end is available by calling (800) 927-4648.

† Expenses are equal to the Portfolio’s Administrative Class annualized expense ratio of 0.60%, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 181/365 (to reflect the one-half year period). Overall fees and expenses of investing in the Portfolio will be higher because the example does not reflect Variable Contract fees and expenses.

Portfolio Insights
» | | The PIMCO StocksPLUS® Growth and Income Portfolio seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing under normal circumstances substantially all of its assets in S&P 500 derivatives, backed by a portfolio of Fixed-Income Instruments. |
» | | The first half of the year was a difficult environment for the StocksPLUS® strategy as most bonds lagged money market instruments; concern about accelerating inflation and central bank tightening pushed interest rates higher worldwide. |
» | | U.S. interest rate exposure was the dominant cause of underperformance as interest rates increased along the yield curve. |
» | | An emphasis on Eurodollar instruments and other shorter (one year or less) holdings was negative as rate increases were more pronounced in this part of the curve. |
» | | Broad diversification to higher-yielding bond sectors, including mortgages and limited exposure to corporates and emerging market securities, helped partially buffer the underperformance associated with rising rates. |
» | | Long exposure to the Yen and Euro currency was positive as both currencies appreciated relative to the U.S. dollar. |

Notes to Financial Statements
1. ORGANIZATION
The StocksPLUS® Growth and Income Portfolio (the “Portfolio”) is a series of the PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust (the “Trust”). The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “Act”), as amended, as an open-end investment management company organized as a Delaware business trust on October 3, 1997. The Portfolio offers three classes of shares: Institutional, Administrative and Advisor. Information presented in these financial statements pertains to the Administrative Class of the Portfolio. Certain detailed financial information for the Institutional Class and Advisor Class is provided separately and is available upon request. The Trust is designed to be used as an investment vehicle by Separate Accounts of insurance companies that fund variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies and by qualified pension and retirement plans.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Portfolio in the preparation of its financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Security Valuation. Portfolio securities are valued as of the close of regular trading (normally 4:00 p.m., Eastern Time) on each day that the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) is open. Portfolio securities and other assets for which market quotes are readily available are stated at market value. Market value is generally determined on the basis of last reported sales prices, or if no sales are reported, based on quotes obtained from a quotation reporting system, established market makers, or pricing services. Fixed-income securities and non-exchange traded derivatives are normally valued on the basis of quotes obtained from brokers and dealers or pricing services. Prices obtained from independent pricing services use information provided by market makers or estimates of market values obtained from yield data relating to investments or securities with similar characteristics. Certain fixed-income securities purchased on a delayed-delivery basis are marked to market daily until settlement at the forward settlement date. Short-term investments having a maturity of 60 days or less are generally valued at amortized cost. Exchange traded options, futures and options on futures are valued at the settlement price determined by the relevant exchange.
Investments initially valued in currencies other than the U.S. dollar are converted to the U.S. dollar using exchange rates obtained from pricing services. As a result, the NAV of the Portfolio’s shares may be affected by changes in the value of currencies in relation to the U.S. dollar. The value of securities traded in markets outside the United States or denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar may be affected significantly on a day that the NYSE is closed and an investor is not able to purchase, redeem or exchange shares.
Securities and other assets for which market quotes are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction. The Board of Trustees has adopted methods for valuing securities and other assets in circumstances where market quotes are not readily available, and has delegated to Pacific Investment Management Company LLC (“PIMCO”) the responsibility for applying the valuation methods. In the event that market quotes are not readily available, and the security or asset cannot be valued pursuant to one of the valuation methods, the value of the security or asset will be determined in good faith by the Valuation Committee of the Board of Trustees, generally based upon recommendations provided by PIMCO.
Market quotes are considered not readily available in circumstances where there is an absence of current or reliable market-based data (e.g., trade information, bid/asked information, broker quotes), including where events occur after the close of the relevant market, but prior to the close of regular trading, that materially affect the values of the Portfolio’s securities or assets. In addition, market quotes are considered not readily available when, due to extraordinary circumstances, the exchanges or markets on which the securities trade do not open for trading for the entire day and no other market prices are available. The Board has delegated to PIMCO the responsibility for monitoring significant events that may materially affect the values of the Portfolio’s securities or assets and for determining whether the value of the applicable securities or assets should be re-evaluated in light of such significant events. When the Portfolio uses fair value pricing to determine its NAV, securities will not be priced on the basis of quotations from the primary market in which they are traded, but rather may be priced by another method that the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction believe accurately reflects fair value. The Trust’s policy is intended to result in a calculation of the Portfolio’s NAV that fairly reflects security values as of the time of pricing. However, fair values determined by the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction may not accurately reflect the price that the Portfolio could obtain for a security if it were to dispose of that security as of the time of pricing. Because foreign securities can trade on non-business days, the NAV of the Portfolio may change on days when shareholders will not be able to purchase or redeem shares. The prices used by the Portfolio may differ from the value that would be realized if the securities were sold and the differences could be material to the financial statements.
Securities Transactions and Investment Income. Securities transactions are recorded as of the trade date. Securities purchased or sold on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis may be settled a month or more after the trade date. Realized gains and losses from securities sold are recorded on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Portfolio is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, adjusted for the accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis. Paydown gains and losses on mortgage-related or asset-backed securities are recorded as components of interest income in the Statement of Operations.
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends from net investment income, if any, are declared on each day the Portfolio is open for business and are distributed to shareholders quarterly. Net realized capital gains earned by the Portfolio, if any, will be distributed no less frequently than once each year. Most shareholders choose to reinvest their dividends and capital gain distribution in additional shares of the Portfolio.
Income dividends and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP. Differences between tax regulations and GAAP may change the fiscal year when income and capital items are recognized for tax and GAAP purposes. Examples of events that give rise to timing differences include wash sales, straddles, net operating losses and capital loss carryforwards. Further, the character of investment income and capital gains may be different for certain transactions under the two methods of accounting. Examples of characterization differences include the treatment of mortgage paydowns, swaps, foreign currency transactions and contingent debt instruments. As a result, income dividends and capital gain distributions declared during a fiscal period may differ significantly from the net investment income and realized capital gain reported in the Portfolio’s annual financial statements presented under GAAP.
Distributions classified as a tax basis return of capital, if any, are reflected in the accompanying Statements of Changes in Net Assets and have been reclassified to paid in capital. In addition, other amounts have been reclassified between undistributed net investment income, accumulated undistributed net realized gains

or losses and/or paid in capital to more appropriately conform financial accounting to tax characterizations of dividend distributions.
Multiclass Operations. Each class offered by the Portfolio has equal rights as to assets and voting privileges (except that shareholders of a class have exclusive voting rights regarding any matter relating solely to that class of shares). Income and non-class specific expenses of the Portfolio are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative value of settled shares. Realized and unrealized capital gains and losses of the Portfolio are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative net assets of each class. Class specific expenses, where applicable, currently include administrative, distribution and servicing fees.
Federal Income Taxes. The Portfolio intends to qualify as a regulated investment company under sub-chapter M of the Internal Revenue Code and distribute all of its taxable income and net realized gains, if applicable, to shareholders. Accordingly, no provision for Federal income taxes has been made.
Foreign Currency. The accounting records of the Portfolio are maintained in U.S. dollar. The market values of foreign securities, currency holdings and other assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollar based on the current exchange rates each business day. Fluctuations in the value of currency holdings and other assets and liabilities resulting from changes in exchange rates are recorded as unrealized foreign currency gains or losses. Realized gains or losses and unrealized appreciation or depreciation on investment securities and income and expenses are translated on the respective dates of such transactions. The effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on investments in securities are not segregated in the Statement of Operations from the effects of changes in market prices of those securities, but are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss on investment securities.

GBP | | British Pound | | | | |
Forward Currency Transactions. The Portfolio may enter into forward currency contracts in connection with settling planned purchases or sales of securities, to hedge the currency exposure associated with some or all of the Portfolio’s securities or as a part of an investment strategy. A forward currency contract is an agreement between two parties to buy and sell a currency at a set price on a future date. The market value of a forward currency contract fluctuates with changes in forward currency exchange rates. Forward currency contracts are marked to market daily and the change in value is recorded by the Portfolio as an unrealized gain or loss. Realized gains or losses equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed are recorded upon delivery or receipt of the currency or, if a forward currency contract is offset by entering into another forward currency contract with the same broker, upon settlement of the net gain or loss. These contracts may involve market risk in excess of the unrealized gain or loss reflected in the Portfolio’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities. In addition, the Portfolio could be exposed to risk if the counterparties are unable to meet the terms of the contracts or if the value of the currency changes unfavorably to the U.S. dollar.
Futures Contracts. The Portfolio is authorized to enter into futures contracts. The Portfolio may use futures contracts to manage its exposure to the securities markets or to movements in interest rates and currency values. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are the imperfect correlation between the change in market value of the securities held by the Portfolio and the prices of futures contracts, the possibility of an illiquid market, and the inability of the counterparty to meet the terms of the contract. Futures contracts are valued based upon their quoted daily settlement prices. Upon entering into a futures contract, the Portfolio is required to deposit with its custodian, in a segregated account in the name of the futures broker, an amount of cash or U.S. Government and Agency Obligations in accordance with the initial margin requirements of the broker or exchange. Futures contracts are marked to market daily and an appropriate payable or receivable for the change in value (“variation margin”) is recorded by the Portfolio. Gains or losses are recognized but not considered realized until the contracts expire or are closed. Futures contracts involve, to varying degrees, risk of loss in excess of the variation margin disclosed in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
Inflation-Indexed Bonds. The Portfolio may invest in inflation-indexed bonds. Inflation-indexed bonds are fixed-income securities whose principal value is periodically adjusted to the rate of inflation. The interest rate on these bonds is generally fixed at issuance at a rate lower than typical bonds. Over the life of an inflation-indexed bond, however, interest will be paid based on a principal value, which is adjusted for inflation. Any increase in the principal amount of an inflation-indexed bond will be included as interest income in the Statement of Operations, even though investors do not receive their principal until maturity.
Loan Participant and Assignments. The Portfolio may invest in direct debt instruments which are interests in amounts owned by corporate, governmental, or other borrowers to lenders or lending syndicates. The Portfolio’s investments in loans may be in the form of participations in loans or assignments of all or a portion of loans from third parties. A loan is often administered by a bank or other financial institution (the “lender”) that acts as agent for all holders. Then agent administers the terms of the loan, as specified in the loan agreement. When investing in a loan participation, the Portfolio has the right to receive payments of principal, interest and any fees to which it is entitled only from the lender selling the loan agreement and only upon receipt by the lender of payments from the borrower. The Portfolio generally has no right to enforce compliance with the terms of the loan agreement with the borrower. As a result, the Portfolio may be subject to the credit of both the borrower and the lender that is selling the loan agreement. When the Portfolio purchases assignments from lenders it acquires direct rights against the borrower on the loan. At the end of the period, the Portfolio had no unfunded loan commitments.
Options Contracts. The Portfolio may write call and put options on futures, swaps, securities or currencies it owns or in which it may invest. Writing put options tends to increase the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. Writing call options tends to decrease the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. When the Portfolio writes a call or put option, an amount equal to the premium received is recorded as a liability and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the option written. These liabilities are reflected as written options outstanding in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Certain options may be written with premiums to determined on a future date. The premiums for these options are based upon implied volatility parameters at specified terms. Premiums received from writing options which expire are treated as realized gains. Premiums received from writing options which are exercised or closed are added to the proceeds or offset against amounts paid on the underlying future, swap, security or currency transaction to determine the realized gain or loss. The Portfolio as a writer of an option has no control over whether the underlying future, swap, security or currency may be sold (call) or purchased (put) and as a result bears the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the future, swap, security or currency underlying the written option. There is the risk the Portfolio may not be able to enter into a closing transaction because of an illiquid market.
The Portfolio may also purchase put and call options. Purchasing call options tends to increase the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. Purchasing put

Notes to Financial Statements (Cont.)
options tends to decrease the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. The Portfolio pays a premium which is included in the Portfolio’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an investment and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the option. Premiums paid for purchasing options which expire are treated as realized losses. Certain options may be purchased with premiums to be determined on a future date. The premiums for these options are based upon implied volatility parameters at specified terms. The risk associated with purchasing put and call options is limited to the premium paid. Premiums paid for purchasing options which are exercised or closed are added to the amounts paid or offset against the proceeds on the underlying future, swap, security or currency transaction to determine the realized gain or loss.
Repurchase Agreements. The Portfolio may engage in repurchase transactions. Under the terms of a typical repurchase agreement, the Portfolio takes possession of an underlying debt obligation subject to an obligation of the seller to repurchase, and the Portfolio to resell, the obligation at an agreed-upon price and time. The market value of the collateral must be equal to or exceed at all times the total amount of the repurchase obligations, including interest. Securities purchased under repurchase agreements are reflected as an asset in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Generally, in the event of counterparty default, the Portfolio has the right to use the collateral to offset losses incurred. If the counterparty should default, the Portfolio will seek to sell the securities which it holds as collateral. This could involve procedural costs or delays in addition to a loss on the securities if their value should fall below their repurchase price.
Mortgage-Related and Other Asset-Backed Securities. The Portfolio may invest in mortgage-related or other asset-backed securities. These securities include mortgage pass-through securities, collateralized mortgage obligations (“CMOs”), commercial mortgage-backed securities, mortgage dollar rolls, CMO residuals, stripped mortgage-backed securities (“SMBSs”) and other securities that directly or indirectly represent a participation in, or are secured by and payable from, mortgage loans on real property. The value of some mortgage- or asset-backed securities may be particularly sensitive to changes in prevailing interest rates. Early repayment of principal on some mortgage-related securities may expose a Portfolio to a lower rate of return upon reinvestment of principal. The value of these securities may fluctuate in response to the market’s perception of the creditworthiness of the issuers. Additionally, although mortgages and mortgage-related securities are generally supported by some form of government or private guarantee and/or insurance, there is no assurance that private guarantors or insurers will meet their obligations.
One type of SMBS has one class receiving all of the interest from the mortgage assets (the interest-only, or “IO” class), while the other class will receive all of the principal (the principal-only, or “PO” class). Payments received for IOs are included in interest income in the Statement of Operations. Because principal will not be received at the maturity of an IO, adjustments are made to the book value of the security on a daily basis until maturity. These adjustments are included in interest income in the Statement of Operations. Payments received for POs are treated as reductions to the cost and par value of the securities.
Swap Agreements. The Portfolio may engage in swap transactions, including, but not limited to, swap agreements on interest rate, total return, forward spread-lock and credit default to manage its exposure to interest rates and credit risk. In connection with these agreements, securities may be identified as collateral in accordance with the terms of the respective swap agreements.
Interest rate swap agreements involve the exchange by the Portfolio with another party of their respective commitments to pay or receive interest, e.g., an exchange of floating rate payments for fixed rate payments with respect to the notional amount of principal.
Total return swap agreements involve commitments to pay interest in exchange for a market-linked return, both based on notional amounts. To the extent the total return of the security or index underlying the transaction exceeds or falls short of the offsetting interest rate obligation, the Portfolio will receive a payment from or make a payment to the counterparty.
Forward spread-lock swap agreements involve commitments to pay or receive a settlement amount calculated as the difference between the swap spread and a fixed spread, multiplied by the notional amount times the duration of the swap. The swap spread is the difference between the benchmark swap rate (market rate) and the specific Treasury rate.
Credit default swap agreements involve one party making a stream of payments to another party in exchange for the right to receive a specified return in the event of a default by a third party, typically corporate issues or sovereign issues of an emerging country, on its obligation. The Portfolio may use credit default swaps to provide a measure of protection against defaults of the issuers (i.e., to reduce risk where the Portfolio owns or has exposure to the sovereign issuer) or to take an active long or short position with respect to the likelihood of a particular issuer’s default. As a seller of protection, the Portfolio generally receives an upfront payment or a fixed rate of income throughout the term of the swap provided that there is no credit event. If the Portfolio is a seller of protection and a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement, the Portfolio will pay to the buyer of the protection an amount up to the notional value of the swap and in certain instances take delivery of the security. As the seller, the Portfolio would effectively add leverage to its portfolio because, in addition to its total net assets, the Portfolio would be subject to investment exposure on the notional amount of the swap. As a buyer of protection, the Portfolio generally receives an amount up to the notional value of the swap if a credit event occurs. The treatment of a credit default swaps and other swap agreements that provide for contingent, non-periodic, bullet-type payments as “notional principal contracts” for federal income tax purposes is uncertain. Were the Internal Revenue Service in take the position that a credit default swap or other bullet -type swap is not a “notional principal contract” for federal income tax purposes, payments received by the Portfolio from such investments might be subject to income taxes.
Swaps are marked to market daily based upon quotations from market makers and the change in value, if any, is recorded as unrealized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Payments received or made at the beginning of the measurement period are reflected as such in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. These upfront payments are recorded as realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations upon termination or maturity of the swap. A liquidation payment received or made at the termination of the swap is recorded as realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Net periodic payments received or paid by the Portfolio are included as part of realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Entering into these agreements involves, to varying degrees, elements of credit, market and documentation risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Such risks involve the possibility that there will be no liquid market for these agreements, that the counterparty to the agreements may default on its obligation to perform or disagree as to the meaning of contractual terms in the agreements and that there may be unfavorable changes in interest rates.
U.S. Government Agencies or Government-Sponsored Enterprises. Securities issued by U.S. Government agencies or government-sponsored enterprises may not be guaranteed by the U.S. Treasury. The Government National Mortgage Association (“GNMA”), a wholly owned U.S. Government corporation, is authorized to guarantee, with the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government, the timely payment of principal and interest on securities issued by institutions approved by GNMA and backed by pools of mortgages insured by the Federal Housing Administration or guaranteed by the Department of Veterans Affairs.

Government-related guarantors (i.e., not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government) include the Federal National Mortgage Association (“FNMA” or “Fannie Mae”) and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“FHLMC” or “Freddie Mac”). Pass-through securities issued by FNMA are guaranteed as to timely payment of principal and interest by FNMA but are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government. FHLMC guarantees the timely payment of interest and ultimate collection of principal, but its participation certificates are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government.
Guarantees and Indemnifications. Under the Trust’s organizational documents, each Trustee, officer, employee or other agent of the Trust (including the Trust’s investment manager) is indemnified against certain liabilities that may arise out of performance of their duties to the Portfolio. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Portfolio enters into contracts that contain a variety of indemnification clauses. The Portfolio’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Portfolio that have not yet occurred. However, the Portfolio has not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts, and believes the risk of loss to be remote.
New Accounting Policies. In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes—an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (the “Interpretation”). The Interpretation is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. Management is currently evaluating the application of the Interpretation to the Portfolio and will provide additional information in relation to the Interpretation in the Portfolio’s annual financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2006.
3. FEES, EXPENSES, AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Investment Advisory Fee. PIMCO is a majority-owned subsidiary of Allianz Global Investors of America L.P. (“AGI”), and serves as investment adviser (the “Adviser”) to the Trust, pursuant to an investment advisory contract. The Adviser receives a monthly fee at an annual rate based on average daily net assets of the Portfolio. The Advisory Fee is charged at an annual rate of 0.35%.
Administration Fee. PIMCO serves as administrator (the “Administrator”), and provides administrative services to the Trust for which it receives a monthly administrative fee based on average daily net assets of the Portfolio. As the Administrator, PIMCO bears the costs of various third-party services, including audit, custodial, portfolio accounting, legal, transfer agency and printing costs. The Administration Fee is charged at the annual rate of 0.10%.
Distribution and Servicing Fees. Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC (“AGID”) is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of AGI and serves as the distributor of the Trust’s shares. The Trust is permitted to reimburse AGID on a quarterly basis, out of the Administrative Class assets of the Portfolio in the amount of 0.15% on an annual basis of the average daily net assets of that class, for payments made to financial intermediaries that provide services in connection with the distribution of shares or administration of plans or programs that use Portfolio shares as their funding medium. The effective rate paid to AGID was 0.15% during the current fiscal year.
Expenses. The Trust is responsible for the following expenses: (i) salaries and other compensation of any of the Trust’s executive officers and employees who are not officers, directors, stockholders or employees of PIMCO or its subsidiaries or affiliates; (ii) taxes and governmental fees; (iii) brokerage fees and commissions and other portfolio transaction expenses; (iv) the costs of borrowing money, including interest expenses and bank overdraft charges; (v) fees and expenses of the Trustees who are not “interested persons” of PIMCO or the Trust, and any counsel retained exclusively for their benefit; (vi) extraordinary expenses, including costs of litigation and indemnification expenses; (vii) organization expenses and (viii) any expenses allocated or allocable to a specific class of shares, which include service fees payable with respect to the Administrative Class shares and may include certain other expenses as permitted by the Trust’s Multiple Class Plan adopted pursuant to Rule 18f-3 under the Act and subject to review and approval by the Trustees. The ratio of expenses to average net assets per share class, as disclosed in the Financial Highlights, may differ from the annual portfolio operating expenses per share class as disclosed in the Prospectus for the reasons set forth above.
For the current period ended June 30, 2006, each unaffiliated Trustee received an annual retainer of $15,000, plus $2,000 for each Board of Trustees quarterly meeting attended, $500 for each Board of Trustees committee meeting attended and $500 for each special board meeting attended, plus reimbursement of related expenses. In addition, each Committee Chair received an additional annual retainer of $500 and each Audit Committee Chair received an additional annual retainer of $1,500. These expenses are allocated on a pro-rata basis to each Portfolio of the Trust according to its respective net assets. The Trust pays no compensation directly to any Trustee or any other officer who is affiliated with the Administrator, all of whom receive remuneration for their services to the Trust from the Administrator or its affiliates.
4. PURCHASES AND SALES OF SECURITIES
The length of time the Portfolio has held a particular security is not generally a consideration in investment decisions. A change in the securities held by the Portfolio is known as “portfolio turnover”. The Portfolio may engage in frequent and active trading of portfolio securities to achieve its investment objective, particularly during periods of volatile market movements. High portfolio turnover (e.g., over 100%) involves correspondingly greater expenses to the Portfolio, including brokerage commissions or dealer mark-ups and other transaction costs on the sale of securities and reinvestments in other securities. Such sales may also result in realization of taxable capital gains, including short-term capital gains (which are generally taxed at ordinary income tax rates). The trading costs and tax effects associated with portfolio turnover may adversely affect the Portfolio’s performance.
Purchases and sales of securities (excluding short-term investments) for the period ended June 30, 2006 were as follows (amounts in thousands):
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| U.S Government/Agency | | | | | All Other |

5. SECURITY TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATED PORTFOLIO
The Portfolio is permitted to purchase or sell securities from or to certain related affiliated portfolios under specified conditions outlined in procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees of the Trust. The procedures have been designed to ensure that any purchase or sale of securities by the Portfolio from or to another portfolio that are, or could be, considered an affiliate by virtue of having a common investment advisor (or affiliated investment advisors), common Trustees and/or common officers complies with Rule 17a-7 of the Act. Further, as defined under the procedures, each transaction is effected at the current market price. During the period ended June 30, 2006, the Portfolio below engaged in purchases and sales of securities pursuant to the Rule 17a-7 of the Act (amounts in thousands):

9. REGULATORY AND LITIGATION MATTERS
On June 1, 2004, the Attorney General of the State of New Jersey announced that it had dismissed PIMCO from a complaint filed by the New Jersey Attorney General on February 17, 2004, and that it had entered into a settlement agreement (the “New Jersey Settlement”) with Allianz Global Investors of America L.P. (“AGI”) (formerly known as Allianz Dresdner Asset Management of America L.P.), PEA Capital LLC (an entity affiliated with PIMCO through common ownership) (“PEA”) and Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC (“AGID”), in connection with the same matter. In the New Jersey Settlement, AGI, PEA and AGID neither admitted nor denied the allegations or conclusions of law, but did agree to pay New Jersey a civil fine of $15 million and $3 million for investigative costs and further potential enforcement initiatives against unrelated parties. They also undertook to implement certain governance changes. The complaint relating to the New Jersey Settlement alleged, among other things, that AGI, PEA and AGID had failed to disclose that they improperly allowed certain hedge funds to engage in “market timing” in certain funds. The complaint sought injunctive relief, civil monetary penalties, restitution and disgorgement of profits.
Since February 2004, PIMCO, AGI, PEA, AGID, and certain of their affiliates, including the PIMCO Funds, the Allianz Funds (formerly known as PIMCO Funds: Multi-Manager Series), and the Trustees and employees of the PIMCO Funds, have been named as defendants in fifteen lawsuits filed in various jurisdictions. Eleven of those lawsuits concern “market timing,” and they have been transferred to and consolidated for pre-trial proceedings in a multi-district litigation proceeding in the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland; the other four lawsuits concern “revenue sharing” and have been consolidated into a single action in the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut. The lawsuits have been commenced as putative class actions on behalf of investors who purchased, held or redeemed shares of the various series of the PIMCO Funds and the Allianz Funds during specified periods, or as derivative actions on behalf of the PIMCO Funds and Allianz Funds.
The market timing actions in the District of Maryland generally allege that certain hedge funds were allowed to engage in “market timing” in certain of the PIMCO Funds and the Allianz Funds and this alleged activity was not disclosed. Pursuant to tolling agreements entered into with the derivative and class action plaintiffs, PIMCO, the Trustees, and certain employees of PIMCO who were previously named as defendants have all been dropped as defendants in the market timing actions; the plaintiffs continue to assert claims on behalf of the shareholders of the PIMCO Funds or on behalf of the PIMCO Funds themselves against other defendants. By order dated November 3, 2005, the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland granted the PIMCO Funds’ motion to dismiss claims asserted against it in a consolidated amended complaint where the PIMCO Funds were named, in the complaint, as a nominal defendant. The revenue sharing action in the District of Connecticut generally alleges that fund assets were inappropriately used to pay brokers to promote PIMCO Funds and the Allianz Funds, including directing fund brokerage transactions to such brokers, and that such alleged arrangements were not fully disclosed to shareholders. On August 11, 2005 the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut conducted a hearing on defendants’ motion to dismiss the consolidated amended complaint in the revenue sharing action but has not yet ruled on the motion to dismiss. The market timing and revenue sharing lawsuits seek, among other things, unspecified compensatory damages plus interest and, in some cases, punitive damages, the rescission of investment advisory contracts, the return of fees paid under those contracts and restitution.
Under Section 9(a) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“1940 Act”), if the New Jersey Settlement or any of the lawsuits described above were to result in a court injunction against AGI, PEA, AGID and/or their affiliates, PIMCO could, in the absence of exemptive relief granted by the SEC, be barred from serving as an investment adviser, and AGID could be barred from serving as principal underwriter, to any registered investment company, including the
| | | | |
16 | | PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust | | |
| | |
| |
| | June 30, 2006 (Unaudited) |
Portfolios of the Trust. In connection with an inquiry from the SEC concerning the status of the New Jersey Settlement under Section 9(a), PEA, AGID, AGI and certain of their affiliates (including PIMCO) (together, the “Applicants”) have sought exemptive relief from the SEC under Section 9(c) of the 1940 Act. The SEC has granted the Applicants a temporary exemption from the provisions of Section 9(a) with respect to the New Jersey Settlement until the earlier of (i) September 13, 2006 and (ii) the date on which the SEC takes final action on their application for a permanent order. There is no assurance that the SEC will issue a permanent order.
Two nearly identical class action civil complaints have been filed in August 2005, in the Northern District of Illinois Eastern Division alleging that the plaintiffs each purchased and sold a 10-year Treasury note futures contract and suffered damages from an alleged shortage when PIMCO held both physical and futures positions in 10-year Treasury notes for its client accounts. The two actions have been consolidated into one action, and the two separate complaints have been replaced by a consolidated complaint. PIMCO is a named defendant, and the PIMCO Funds have been added as a defendant, to the consolidated action. PIMCO strongly believes the complaint (and any consolidated complaint filed hereafter) is without merit and intends to vigorously defend itself.
Certain Portfolios of the Trust were recently served in an adversary proceeding brought by the Official Committee of Asbestos Claimants of G-I Holdings, Inc. in G-I Holdings, Inc.’s bankruptcy in the District of New Jersey. PIMCO was previously named in this lawsuit and remains a defendant. The plaintiff seeks to recover for the bankruptcy estate assets that were transferred by the predecessor entity of G-I Holdings, Inc. to a wholly-owned subsidiary in 1994. The subsidiary has since issued notes, of which certain Portfolios of the Trust are alleged to be holders. The complaint alleges that in 2000, more than two hundred noteholders—including certain Portfolios of the Trust—were granted a second priority lien on the assets of the subsidiary in exchange for their consent to a refinancing transaction and the granting of a first priority lien to the lending banks. The plaintiff is seeking invalidation of the lien in favor of the noteholders and/or the value of the lien.
It is possible that these matters and/or other developments resulting from these matters could result in increased fund redemptions or other adverse consequences to the Portfolios. However, PIMCO and AGID believe that these matters are not likely to have a material adverse effect on the Portfolios or on PIMCO’s or AGID’s ability to perform their respective investment advisory or distribution services relating to the Portfolios.

Chairman’s Letter
Dear PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust Shareholder:
It is our pleasure to present to you the semiannual report for the PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust covering the six-month period ended June 30, 2006.
Highlights of the global bond markets during the six-month period included:
| n | | Most fixed-income sectors lost ground during the first half of 2006, as concern about accelerating inflation and central bank tightening pushed interest rates higher worldwide. The benchmark Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index (which includes Treasury, Investment-Grade Corporate, and Residential Mortgage-Backed Securities) returned -0.72% for the first six months of the year. On June 30, the benchmark ten-year Treasury yielded 5.14%, 0.75% higher than at the start of the year. The U.S. yield curve remained flat as shorter-maturity yields rose by a comparable amount. |
| n | | The Federal Reserve tightened four times during the reporting period, bringing the Federal Funds Rate to 5.25%. The increase near the end of the period was the Federal Reserve’s 17th consecutive rate hike since the start of its tightening cycle in 2004. The Federal Reserve was not alone, as central banks in Europe, India, and China tightened credit in unison for the first time since 2000. The Bank of Japan, whose zero-interest-rate policy has flooded global markets with liquidity, looked set to reverse this policy in the coming months. |
In these pages please find a more complete Portfolio review as it relates to financial-market activities, as well as details about total-return investment performance for the six-month reporting period. Thank you for the trust you have placed in us. We will continue to work diligently to meet your investment needs.
Sincerely,

Brent R. Harris
Chairman, PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust

Important Information About the Portfolio
PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust (the “Trust”) is an open-end management investment company currently consisting of nineteen separate investment portfolios, including the StocksPLUS® Growth and Income Portfolio (the “Portfolio”). The Portfolio is only available as a funding vehicle under variable life insurance policies or variable annuity contracts issued by insurance companies (“Variable Contracts”). Individuals may not purchase shares of the Portfolio directly. Shares of the Portfolio also may be sold to qualified pension and retirement plans outside of the separate account context.
We believe that bond funds have an important role to play in a well diversified investment portfolio. It is important to note, however, that in an environment where interest rates may trend upward, rising rates would negatively impact the performance of most bond funds, and fixed-income securities held by a fund are likely to decrease in value. The price volatility of fixed-income securities can also increase during periods of rising interest rates resulting in increased losses to a fund. Bond funds and individual bonds with a longer duration (a measure of the expected life of a security) tend to be more sensitive to changes in interest rates, usually making them more volatile than securities or funds with shorter durations. The longer-term performance of most bond funds has benefited from capital gains in part resulting from an extended period of declining interest rates. In the event interest rates increase, these capital gains should not be expected to recur.
The Portfolio may be subject to various risks in addition to those described above. Some of these risks may include, but are not limited to, the following: credit risk, high yield risk, market risk, issuer risk, liquidity risk, derivatives risk, equity risk, mortgage risk, non-U.S. investment risk, currency risk, leveraging risk and management risk. A complete description of these risks is contained in the Portfolio’s prospectus. The Portfolio may use derivative instruments for hedging purposes or as part of an investment strategy. Use of these instruments may involve certain costs and risks such as liquidity risk, interest rate risk, market risk, credit risk, management risk and the risk that the Portfolio could not close out a position when it would be most advantageous to do so. A Portfolio investing in derivatives could lose more than the principal amount invested in these instruments. Investing in non-U.S. securities may entail risk due to non-U.S. economic and political developments; this risk may be increased when investing in emerging markets.
On the performance summary page in this Semiannual Report, the Total Return Investment Performance table measures performance assuming that all dividend and capital gain distributions were reinvested.
An investment in the Portfolio is not a deposit of a bank and is not guaranteed or insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. It is possible to lose money on investments in the Portfolio.
PIMCO has adopted written proxy voting policies and procedures (“Proxy Policy”) as required by Rule 206(4)-6 under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940. The Proxy Policy has been adopted by the Trust as the policies and procedures that PIMCO will use when voting proxies on behalf of the Portfolio. Copies of the written Proxy Policy and the factors that PIMCO may consider in determining how to vote proxies for the Portfolio, and information about how the Portfolio voted proxies relating to portfolio securities held during the most recent twelve-month period ended June 30, are available without charge, upon request, by calling the Trust at 1-866-746-2606 and on the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) website at http://www.sec.gov.
The Portfolio files its complete schedule of portfolio holdings with the SEC for the first and third quarters of each fiscal year on Form N-Q. A copy of the Trust’s Form N-Q is available on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov and may be reviewed and copied at the SEC’s Public Reference Room in Washington D.C. Information on the operation of the Public Reference Room may be obtained by calling 1-800-SEC-0330.
PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust is distributed by Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC, 2187 Atlantic Street, Stamford, CT 06902.

The following disclosure provides important information regarding the Portfolio’s Expense Example (“Example” or “Expense Example”), which appears in this Semiannual Report. Please refer to this information when reviewing the Expense Example for the Portfolio.
Example
As a shareholder of the Portfolio, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs and (2) ongoing costs, including advisory and administrative fees; distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees (Administrative Class only); and other Portfolio expenses. The Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Portfolio and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Expense Example does not reflect any fees or other expenses imposed by the Variable Contracts. If it did, the expenses reflected in the Expense Examples would be higher. The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period indicated, which is from January 1, 2006 to June 30, 2006.
Actual Expenses
The information in the table under the heading “Actual Performance” provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in these columns, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.60), then multiply the result by the number in the appropriate column for your share class, in the row titled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The information in the table under the heading “Hypothetical Performance (5% return before expenses)” provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Portfolio’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Portfolio’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Portfolio and other portfolios. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other portfolios.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs. Therefore, the information under the heading “Hypothetical Performance (5% return before expenses)” is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different portfolios. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.
The expense ratio may vary period to period because of various factors, such as an increase in expenses not covered by the advisory and administrative fees (such as expenses of the trustees and their counsel or litigation expense).
Portfolio Benchmark
The S&P 500 Index is an unmanaged index generally considered representative of the stock market as a whole. It is not possible to invest directly in the index.

** The Institutional Class shares commenced operations on 04/28/00. Index comparisons began on 04/30/00.
Past performance is no guarantee of future results. The performance quoted represents past performance. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so the Portfolio shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. The Portfolio’s performance does not reflect the deduction of additional charges and expenses imposed in connection with investing in Variable Contracts, which will reduce returns. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. Performance data current to the most recent month-end is available by calling (800) 927-4648.

Expenses Paid During Period† | | $ | 2.25 | | | | $ | 2.26 |
† Expenses are equal to the Portfolio’s Institutional Class annualized expense ratio of 0.45%, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 181/365 (to reflect the one-half year period). Overall fees and expenses of investing in the Portfolio will be higher because the example does not reflect Variable Contract fees and expenses

Portfolio Insights
» | | The PIMCO StocksPLUS® Growth and Income Portfolio seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing under normal circumstances substantially all of its assets in S&P 500 derivatives, backed by a portfolio of Fixed-Income Instruments. |
» | | The first half of the year was a difficult environment for the StocksPLUS® strategy as most bonds lagged money market instruments; concern about accelerating inflation and central bank tightening pushed interest rates higher worldwide. |
» | | U.S. interest rate exposure was the dominant cause of underperformance as interest rates increased along the yield curve. |
» | | An emphasis on Eurodollar instruments and other shorter (one year or less) holdings was negative as rate increases were more pronounced in this part of the curve. |
» | | Broad diversification to higher-yielding bond sectors, including mortgages and limited exposure to corporates and emerging market securities, helped partially buffer the underperformance associated with rising rates. |
» | | Long exposure to the Yen and Euro currency was positive as both currencies appreciated relative to the U.S. dollar. |

Notes to Financial Statements
1. ORGANIZATION
The StocksPLUS® Growth and Income Portfolio (the “Portfolio”) is a series of the PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust (the “Trust”). The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “Act”), as amended, as an open-end investment management company organized as a Delaware business trust on October 3, 1997. The Portfolio offers three classes of shares: Institutional, Administrative and Advisor. Information presented in these financial statements pertains to the Institutional Class of the Portfolio. Certain detailed financial information for the Administrative Class and Advisor Class is provided separately and is available upon request. The Trust is designed to be used as an investment vehicle by Separate Accounts of insurance companies that fund variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies and by qualified pension and retirement plans.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Portfolio in the preparation of its financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Security Valuation. Portfolio securities are valued as of the close of regular trading (normally 4:00 p.m., Eastern Time) on each day that the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) is open. Portfolio securities and other assets for which market quotes are readily available are stated at market value. Market value is generally determined on the basis of last reported sales prices, or if no sales are reported, based on quotes obtained from a quotation reporting system, established market makers, or pricing services. Fixed-income securities and non-exchange traded derivatives are normally valued on the basis of quotes obtained from brokers and dealers or pricing services. Prices obtained from independent pricing services use information provided by market makers or estimates of market values obtained from yield data relating to investments or securities with similar characteristics. Certain fixed-income securities purchased on a delayed-delivery basis are marked to market daily until settlement at the forward settlement date. Short-term investments having a maturity of 60 days or less are generally valued at amortized cost. Exchange traded options, futures and options on futures are valued at the settlement price determined by the relevant exchange.
Investments initially valued in currencies other than the U.S. dollar are converted to the U.S. dollar using exchange rates obtained from pricing services. As a result, the NAV of the Portfolio’s shares may be affected by changes in the value of currencies in relation to the U.S. dollar. The value of securities traded in markets outside the United States or denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar may be affected significantly on a day that the NYSE is closed and an investor is not able to purchase, redeem or exchange shares.
Securities and other assets for which market quotes are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction. The Board of Trustees has adopted methods for valuing securities and other assets in circumstances where market quotes are not readily available, and has delegated to Pacific Investment Management Company LLC (“PIMCO”) the responsibility for applying the valuation methods. In the event that market quotes are not readily available, and the security or asset cannot be valued pursuant to one of the valuation methods, the value of the security or asset will be determined in good faith by the Valuation Committee of the Board of Trustees, generally based upon recommendations provided by PIMCO.
Market quotes are considered not readily available in circumstances where there is an absence of current or reliable market-based data (e.g., trade information, bid/asked information, broker quotes), including where events occur after the close of the relevant market, but prior to the close of regular trading, that materially affect the values of the Portfolio’s securities or assets. In addition, market quotes are considered not readily available when, due to extraordinary circumstances, the exchanges or markets on which the securities trade do not open for trading for the entire day and no other market prices are available. The Board has delegated to PIMCO the responsibility for monitoring significant events that may materially affect the values of the Portfolio’s securities or assets and for determining whether the value of the applicable securities or assets should be re-evaluated in light of such significant events. When the Portfolio uses fair value pricing to determine its NAV, securities will not be priced on the basis of quotations from the primary market in which they are traded, but rather may be priced by another method that the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction believe accurately reflects fair value. The Trust’s policy is intended to result in a calculation of the Portfolio’s NAV that fairly reflects security values as of the time of pricing. However, fair values determined by the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction may not accurately reflect the price that the Portfolio could obtain for a security if it were to dispose of that security as of the time of pricing. Because foreign securities can trade on non-business days, the NAV of the Portfolio may change on days when shareholders will not be able to purchase or redeem shares. The prices used by the Portfolio may differ from the value that would be realized if the securities were sold and the differences could be material to the financial statements.
Securities Transactions and Investment Income. Securities transactions are recorded as of the trade date. Securities purchased or sold on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis may be settled a month or more after the trade date. Realized gains and losses from securities sold are recorded on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Portfolio is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, adjusted for the accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis. Paydown gains and losses on mortgage-related or asset-backed securities are recorded as components of interest income in the Statement of Operations.
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends from net investment income, if any, are declared on each day the Portfolio is open for business and are distributed to shareholders quarterly. Net realized capital gains earned by the Portfolio, if any, will be distributed no less frequently than once each year. Most shareholders choose to reinvest their dividends and capital gain distribution in additional shares of the Portfolio.
Income dividends and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP. Differences between tax regulations and GAAP may change the fiscal year when income and capital items are recognized for tax and GAAP purposes. Examples of events that give rise to timing differences include wash sales, straddles, net operating losses and capital loss carryforwards. Further, the character of investment income and capital gains may be different for certain transactions under the two methods of accounting. Examples of characterization differences include the treatment of mortgage paydowns, swaps, foreign currency transactions and contingent debt instruments. As a result, income dividends and capital gain distributions declared during a fiscal period may differ significantly from the net investment income and realized capital gain reported in the Portfolio’s annual financial statements presented under GAAP.
Distributions classified as a tax basis return of capital, if any, are reflected in the accompanying Statements of Changes in Net Assets and have been reclassified to paid in capital. In addition, other amounts have been reclassified between undistributed net investment income, accumulated undistributed net realized gains

or losses and/or paid in capital to more appropriately conform financial accounting to tax characterizations of dividend distributions.
Multiclass Operations. Each class offered by the Portfolio has equal rights as to assets and voting privileges (except that shareholders of a class have exclusive voting rights regarding any matter relating solely to that class of shares). Income and non-class specific expenses of the Portfolio are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative value of settled shares. Realized and unrealized capital gains and losses of the Portfolio are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative net assets of each class. Class specific expenses, where applicable, currently include administrative, distribution and servicing fees.
Federal Income Taxes. The Portfolio intends to qualify as a regulated investment company under sub-chapter M of the Internal Revenue Code and distribute all of its taxable income and net realized gains, if applicable, to shareholders. Accordingly, no provision for Federal income taxes has been made.
Foreign Currency. The accounting records of the Portfolio are maintained in U.S. dollar. The market values of foreign securities, currency holdings and other assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollar based on the current exchange rates each business day. Fluctuations in the value of currency holdings and other assets and liabilities resulting from changes in exchange rates are recorded as unrealized foreign currency gains or losses. Realized gains or losses and unrealized appreciation or depreciation on investment securities and income and expenses are translated on the respective dates of such transactions. The effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on investments in securities are not segregated in the Statement of Operations from the effects of changes in market prices of those securities, but are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss on investment securities.

GBP | | British Pound | | | | |
Forward Currency Transactions. The Portfolio may enter into forward currency contracts in connection with settling planned purchases or sales of securities, to hedge the currency exposure associated with some or all of the Portfolio’s securities or as a part of an investment strategy. A forward currency contract is an agreement between two parties to buy and sell a currency at a set price on a future date. The market value of a forward currency contract fluctuates with changes in forward currency exchange rates. Forward currency contracts are marked to market daily and the change in value is recorded by the Portfolio as an unrealized gain or loss. Realized gains or losses equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed are recorded upon delivery or receipt of the currency or, if a forward currency contract is offset by entering into another forward currency contract with the same broker, upon settlement of the net gain or loss. These contracts may involve market risk in excess of the unrealized gain or loss reflected in the Portfolio’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities. In addition, the Portfolio could be exposed to risk if the counterparties are unable to meet the terms of the contracts or if the value of the currency changes unfavorably to the U.S. dollar.
Futures Contracts. The Portfolio is authorized to enter into futures contracts. The Portfolio may use futures contracts to manage its exposure to the securities markets or to movements in interest rates and currency values. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are the imperfect correlation between the change in market value of the securities held by the Portfolio and the prices of futures contracts, the possibility of an illiquid market, and the inability of the counterparty to meet the terms of the contract. Futures contracts are valued based upon their quoted daily settlement prices. Upon entering into a futures contract, the Portfolio is required to deposit with its custodian, in a segregated account in the name of the futures broker, an amount of cash or U.S. Government and Agency Obligations in accordance with the initial margin requirements of the broker or exchange. Futures contracts are marked to market daily and an appropriate payable or receivable for the change in value (“variation margin”) is recorded by the Portfolio. Gains or losses are recognized but not considered realized until the contracts expire or are closed. Futures contracts involve, to varying degrees, risk of loss in excess of the variation margin disclosed in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
Inflation-Indexed Bonds. The Portfolio may invest in inflation-indexed bonds. Inflation-indexed bonds are fixed-income securities whose principal value is periodically adjusted to the rate of inflation. The interest rate on these bonds is generally fixed at issuance at a rate lower than typical bonds. Over the life of an inflation-indexed bond, however, interest will be paid based on a principal value, which is adjusted for inflation. Any increase in the principal amount of an inflation-indexed bond will be included as interest income in the Statement of Operations, even though investors do not receive their principal until maturity.
Loan Participant and Assignments. The Portfolio may invest in direct debt instruments which are interests in amounts owned by corporate, governmental, or other borrowers to lenders or lending syndicates. The Portfolio’s investments in loans may be in the form of participations in loans or assignments of all or a portion of loans from third parties. A loan is often administered by a bank or other financial institution (the “lender”) that acts as agent for all holders. Then agent administers the terms of the loan, as specified in the loan agreement. When investing in a loan participation, the Portfolio has the right to receive payments of principal, interest and any fees to which it is entitled only from the lender selling the loan agreement and only upon receipt by the lender of payments from the borrower. The Portfolio generally has no right to enforce compliance with the terms of the loan agreement with the borrower. As a result, the Portfolio may be subject to the credit of both the borrower and the lender that is selling the loan agreement. When the Portfolio purchases assignments from lenders it acquires direct rights against the borrower on the loan. At the end of the period, the Portfolio had no unfunded loan commitments.
Options Contracts. The Portfolio may write call and put options on futures, swaps, securities or currencies it owns or in which it may invest. Writing put options tends to increase the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. Writing call options tends to decrease the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. When the Portfolio writes a call or put option, an amount equal to the premium received is recorded as a liability and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the option written. These liabilities are reflected as written options outstanding in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Certain options may be written with premiums to determined on a future date. The premiums for these options are based upon implied volatility parameters at specified terms. Premiums received from writing options which expire are treated as realized gains. Premiums received from writing options which are exercised or closed are added to the proceeds or offset against amounts paid on the underlying future, swap, security or currency transaction to determine the realized gain or loss. The Portfolio as a writer of an option has no control over whether the underlying future, swap, security or currency may be sold (call) or purchased (put) and as a result bears the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the future, swap, security or currency underlying the written option. There is the risk the Portfolio may not be able to enter into a closing transaction because of an illiquid market.
The Portfolio may also purchase put and call options. Purchasing call options tends to increase the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. Purchasing put

Notes to Financial Statements (Cont.)
options tends to decrease the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. The Portfolio pays a premium which is included in the Portfolio’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an investment and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the option. Premiums paid for purchasing options which expire are treated as realized losses. Certain options may be purchased with premiums to be determined on a future date. The premiums for these options are based upon implied volatility parameters at specified terms. The risk associated with purchasing put and call options is limited to the premium paid. Premiums paid for purchasing options which are exercised or closed are added to the amounts paid or offset against the proceeds on the underlying future, swap, security or currency transaction to determine the realized gain or loss.
Repurchase Agreements. The Portfolio may engage in repurchase transactions. Under the terms of a typical repurchase agreement, the Portfolio takes possession of an underlying debt obligation subject to an obligation of the seller to repurchase, and the Portfolio to resell, the obligation at an agreed-upon price and time. The market value of the collateral must be equal to or exceed at all times the total amount of the repurchase obligations, including interest. Securities purchased under repurchase agreements are reflected as an asset in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Generally, in the event of counterparty default, the Portfolio has the right to use the collateral to offset losses incurred. If the counterparty should default, the Portfolio will seek to sell the securities which it holds as collateral. This could involve procedural costs or delays in addition to a loss on the securities if their value should fall below their repurchase price.
Mortgage-Related and Other Asset-Backed Securities. The Portfolio may invest in mortgage-related or other asset-backed securities. These securities include mortgage pass-through securities, collateralized mortgage obligations (“CMOs”), commercial mortgage-backed securities, mortgage dollar rolls, CMO residuals, stripped mortgage-backed securities (“SMBSs”) and other securities that directly or indirectly represent a participation in, or are secured by and payable from, mortgage loans on real property. The value of some mortgage- or asset-backed securities may be particularly sensitive to changes in prevailing interest rates. Early repayment of principal on some mortgage-related securities may expose a Portfolio to a lower rate of return upon reinvestment of principal. The value of these securities may fluctuate in response to the market’s perception of the creditworthiness of the issuers. Additionally, although mortgages and mortgage-related securities are generally supported by some form of government or private guarantee and/or insurance, there is no assurance that private guarantors or insurers will meet their obligations.
One type of SMBS has one class receiving all of the interest from the mortgage assets (the interest-only, or “IO” class), while the other class will receive all of the principal (the principal-only, or “PO” class). Payments received for IOs are included in interest income in the Statement of Operations. Because principal will not be received at the maturity of an IO, adjustments are made to the book value of the security on a daily basis until maturity. These adjustments are included in interest income in the Statement of Operations. Payments received for POs are treated as reductions to the cost and par value of the securities.
Swap Agreements. The Portfolio may engage in swap transactions, including, but not limited to, swap agreements on interest rate, total return, forward spread-lock and credit default to manage its exposure to interest rates and credit risk. In connection with these agreements, securities may be identified as collateral in accordance with the terms of the respective swap agreements.
Interest rate swap agreements involve the exchange by the Portfolio with another party of their respective commitments to pay or receive interest, e.g., an exchange of floating rate payments for fixed rate payments with respect to the notional amount of principal.
Total return swap agreements involve commitments to pay interest in exchange for a market-linked return, both based on notional amounts. To the extent the total return of the security or index underlying the transaction exceeds or falls short of the offsetting interest rate obligation, the Portfolio will receive a payment from or make a payment to the counterparty.
Forward spread-lock swap agreements involve commitments to pay or receive a settlement amount calculated as the difference between the swap spread and a fixed spread, multiplied by the notional amount times the duration of the swap. The swap spread is the difference between the benchmark swap rate (market rate) and the specific Treasury rate.
Credit default swap agreements involve one party making a stream of payments to another party in exchange for the right to receive a specified return in the event of a default by a third party, typically corporate issues or sovereign issues of an emerging country, on its obligation. The Portfolio may use credit default swaps to provide a measure of protection against defaults of the issuers (i.e., to reduce risk where the Portfolio owns or has exposure to the sovereign issuer) or to take an active long or short position with respect to the likelihood of a particular issuer’s default. As a seller of protection, the Portfolio generally receives an upfront payment or a fixed rate of income throughout the term of the swap provided that there is no credit event. If the Portfolio is a seller of protection and a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement, the Portfolio will pay to the buyer of the protection an amount up to the notional value of the swap and in certain instances take delivery of the security. As the seller, the Portfolio would effectively add leverage to its portfolio because, in addition to its total net assets, the Portfolio would be subject to investment exposure on the notional amount of the swap. As a buyer of protection, the Portfolio generally receives an amount up to the notional value of the swap if a credit event occurs. The treatment of a credit default swaps and other swap agreements that provide for contingent, non-periodic, bullet-type payments as “notional principal contracts” for federal income tax purposes is uncertain. Were the Internal Revenue Service in take the position that a credit default swap or other bullet -type swap is not a “notional principal contract” for federal income tax purposes, payments received by the Portfolio from such investments might be subject to income taxes.
Swaps are marked to market daily based upon quotations from market makers and the change in value, if any, is recorded as unrealized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Payments received or made at the beginning of the measurement period are reflected as such in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. These upfront payments are recorded as realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations upon termination or maturity of the swap. A liquidation payment received or made at the termination of the swap is recorded as realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Net periodic payments received or paid by the Portfolio are included as part of realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Entering into these agreements involves, to varying degrees, elements of credit, market and documentation risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Such risks involve the possibility that there will be no liquid market for these agreements, that the counterparty to the agreements may default on its obligation to perform or disagree as to the meaning of contractual terms in the agreements and that there may be unfavorable changes in interest rates.
U.S. Government Agencies or Government-Sponsored Enterprises. Securities issued by U.S. Government agencies or government-sponsored enterprises may not be guaranteed by the U.S. Treasury. The Government National Mortgage Association (“GNMA”), a wholly owned U.S. Government corporation, is authorized to guarantee, with the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government, the timely payment of principal and interest on securities issued by institutions approved by GNMA and backed by pools of mortgages insured by the Federal Housing Administration or guaranteed by the Department of Veterans Affairs.

Government-related guarantors (i.e., not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government) include the Federal National Mortgage Association (“FNMA” or “Fannie Mae”) and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“FHLMC” or “Freddie Mac”). Pass-through securities issued by FNMA are guaranteed as to timely payment of principal and interest by FNMA but are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government. FHLMC guarantees the timely payment of interest and ultimate collection of principal, but its participation certificates are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government.
Guarantees and Indemnifications. Under the Trust’s organizational documents, each Trustee, officer, employee or other agent of the Trust (including the Trust’s investment manager) is indemnified against certain liabilities that may arise out of performance of their duties to the Portfolio. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Portfolio enters into contracts that contain a variety of indemnification clauses. The Portfolio’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Portfolio that have not yet occurred. However, the Portfolio has not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts, and believes the risk of loss to be remote.
New Accounting Policies. In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes—an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (the “Interpretation”). The Interpretation is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. Management is currently evaluating the application of the Interpretation to the Portfolio and will provide additional information in relation to the Interpretation in the Portfolio’s annual financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2006.
3. FEES, EXPENSES, AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Investment Advisory Fee. PIMCO is a majority-owned subsidiary of Allianz Global Investors of America L.P. (“AGI”), and serves as investment adviser (the “Adviser”) to the Trust, pursuant to an investment advisory contract. The Adviser receives a monthly fee at an annual rate based on average daily net assets of the Portfolio. The Advisory Fee is charged at an annual rate of 0.35%.
Administration Fee. PIMCO serves as administrator (the “Administrator”), and provides administrative services to the Trust for which it receives a monthly administrative fee based on average daily net assets of the Portfolio. As the Administrator, PIMCO bears the costs of various third-party services, including audit, custodial, portfolio accounting, legal, transfer agency and printing costs. The Administration Fee is charged at the annual rate of 0.10%.
Distribution and Servicing Fees. Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC (“AGID”) is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of AGI and serves as the distributor of the Trust’s shares. The Trust is permitted to reimburse AGID on a quarterly basis, out of the Administrative Class assets of the Portfolio in the amount of 0.15% on an annual basis of the average daily net assets of that class, for payments made to financial intermediaries that provide services in connection with the distribution of shares or administration of plans or programs that use Portfolio shares as their funding medium. The effective rate paid to AGID was 0.15% during the current fiscal year.
Expenses. The Trust is responsible for the following expenses: (i) salaries and other compensation of any of the Trust’s executive officers and employees who are not officers, directors, stockholders or employees of PIMCO or its subsidiaries or affiliates; (ii) taxes and governmental fees; (iii) brokerage fees and commissions and other portfolio transaction expenses; (iv) the costs of borrowing money, including interest expenses and bank overdraft charges; (v) fees and expenses of the Trustees who are not “interested persons” of PIMCO or the Trust, and any counsel retained exclusively for their benefit; (vi) extraordinary expenses, including costs of litigation and indemnification expenses; (vii) organization expenses and (viii) any expenses allocated or allocable to a specific class of shares, which include service fees payable with respect to the Administrative Class shares and may include certain other expenses as permitted by the Trust’s Multiple Class Plan adopted pursuant to Rule 18f-3 under the Act and subject to review and approval by the Trustees. The ratio of expenses to average net assets per share class, as disclosed in the Financial Highlights, may differ from the annual portfolio operating expenses per share class as disclosed in the Prospectus for the reasons set forth above.
For the current period ended June 30, 2006, each unaffiliated Trustee received an annual retainer of $15,000, plus $2,000 for each Board of Trustees quarterly meeting attended, $500 for each Board of Trustees committee meeting attended and $500 for each special board meeting attended, plus reimbursement of related expenses. In addition, each Committee Chair received an additional annual retainer of $500 and each Audit Committee Chair received an additional annual retainer of $1,500. These expenses are allocated on a pro-rata basis to each Portfolio of the Trust according to its respective net assets. The Trust pays no compensation directly to any Trustee or any other officer who is affiliated with the Administrator, all of whom receive remuneration for their services to the Trust from the Administrator or its affiliates.
4. PURCHASES AND SALES OF SECURITIES
The length of time the Portfolio has held a particular security is not generally a consideration in investment decisions. A change in the securities held by the Portfolio is known as “portfolio turnover”. The Portfolio may engage in frequent and active trading of portfolio securities to achieve its investment objective, particularly during periods of volatile market movements. High portfolio turnover (e.g., over 100%) involves correspondingly greater expenses to the Portfolio, including brokerage commissions or dealer mark-ups and other transaction costs on the sale of securities and reinvestments in other securities. Such sales may also result in realization of taxable capital gains, including short-term capital gains (which are generally taxed at ordinary income tax rates). The trading costs and tax effects associated with portfolio turnover may adversely affect the Portfolio’s performance.
Purchases and sales of securities (excluding short-term investments) for the period ended June 30, 2006 were as follows (amounts in thousands):

5. SECURITY TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATED PORTFOLIO
The Portfolio is permitted to purchase or sell securities from or to certain related affiliated portfolios under specified conditions outlined in procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees of the Trust. The procedures have been designed to ensure that any purchase or sale of securities by the Portfolio from or to another portfolio that are, or could be, considered an affiliate by virtue of having a common investment advisor (or affiliated investment advisors), common Trustees and/or common officers complies with Rule 17a-7 of the Act. Further, as defined under the procedures, each transaction is effected at the current market price. During the period ended June 30, 2006, the Portfolio below engaged in purchases and sales of securities pursuant to the Rule 17a-7 of the Act (amounts in thousands):

8. FEDERAL INCOME TAX MATTERS
As of June 30, 2006, the aggregate cost of investments was the same for federal income tax and financial statement purposes. The net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of investment securities for federal income tax purposes is as follows (amounts in thousands):

9. REGULATORY AND LITIGATION MATTERS
On June 1, 2004, the Attorney General of the State of New Jersey announced that it had dismissed PIMCO from a complaint filed by the New Jersey Attorney General on February 17, 2004, and that it had entered into a settlement agreement (the “New Jersey Settlement”) with Allianz Global Investors of America L.P. (“AGI”) (formerly known as Allianz Dresdner Asset Management of America L.P.), PEA Capital LLC (an entity affiliated with PIMCO through common ownership) (“PEA”) and Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC (“AGID”), in connection with the same matter. In the New Jersey Settlement, AGI, PEA and AGID neither admitted nor denied the allegations or conclusions of law, but did agree to pay New Jersey a civil fine of $15 million and $3 million for investigative costs and further potential enforcement initiatives against unrelated parties. They also undertook to implement certain governance changes. The complaint relating to the New Jersey Settlement alleged, among other things, that AGI, PEA and AGID had failed to disclose that they improperly allowed certain hedge funds to engage in “market timing” in certain funds. The complaint sought injunctive relief, civil monetary penalties, restitution and disgorgement of profits.
Since February 2004, PIMCO, AGI, PEA, AGID, and certain of their affiliates, including the PIMCO Funds, the Allianz Funds (formerly known as PIMCO Funds: Multi-Manager Series), and the Trustees and employees of the PIMCO Funds, have been named as defendants in fifteen lawsuits filed in various jurisdictions. Eleven of those lawsuits concern “market timing,” and they have been transferred to and consolidated for pre-trial proceedings in a multi-district litigation proceeding in the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland; the other four lawsuits concern “revenue sharing” and have been consolidated into a single action in the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut. The lawsuits have been commenced as putative class actions on behalf of investors who purchased, held or redeemed shares of the various series of the PIMCO Funds and the Allianz Funds during specified periods, or as derivative actions on behalf of the PIMCO Funds and Allianz Funds.
The market timing actions in the District of Maryland generally allege that certain hedge funds were allowed to engage in “market timing” in certain of the PIMCO Funds and the Allianz Funds and this alleged activity was not disclosed. Pursuant to tolling agreements entered into with the derivative and class action plaintiffs, PIMCO, the Trustees, and certain employees of PIMCO who were previously named as defendants have all been dropped as defendants in the market timing actions; the plaintiffs continue to assert claims on behalf of the shareholders of the PIMCO Funds or on behalf of the PIMCO Funds themselves against other defendants. By order dated November 3, 2005, the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland granted the PIMCO Funds’ motion to dismiss claims asserted against it in a consolidated amended complaint where the PIMCO Funds were named, in the complaint, as a nominal defendant. The revenue sharing action in the District of Connecticut generally alleges that fund assets were inappropriately used to pay brokers to promote PIMCO Funds and the Allianz Funds, including directing fund brokerage transactions to such brokers, and that such alleged arrangements were not fully disclosed to shareholders. On August 11, 2005 the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut conducted a hearing on defendants’ motion to dismiss the consolidated amended complaint in the revenue sharing action but has not yet ruled on the motion to dismiss. The market timing and revenue sharing lawsuits seek, among other things, unspecified compensatory damages plus interest and, in some cases, punitive damages, the rescission of investment advisory contracts, the return of fees paid under those contracts and restitution.
Under Section 9(a) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“1940 Act”), if the New Jersey Settlement or any of the lawsuits described above were to result in a court injunction against AGI, PEA, AGID and/or their affiliates, PIMCO could, in the absence of exemptive relief granted by the SEC, be barred from serving as an investment adviser, and AGID could be barred from serving as principal underwriter, to any registered investment company, including the

Portfolios of the Trust. In connection with an inquiry from the SEC concerning the status of the New Jersey Settlement under Section 9(a), PEA, AGID, AGI and certain of their affiliates (including PIMCO) (together, the “Applicants”) have sought exemptive relief from the SEC under Section 9(c) of the 1940 Act. The SEC has granted the Applicants a temporary exemption from the provisions of Section 9(a) with respect to the New Jersey Settlement until the earlier of (i) September 13, 2006 and (ii) the date on which the SEC takes final action on their application for a permanent order. There is no assurance that the SEC will issue a permanent order.
Two nearly identical class action civil complaints have been filed in August 2005, in the Northern District of Illinois Eastern Division alleging that the plaintiffs each purchased and sold a 10-year Treasury note futures contract and suffered damages from an alleged shortage when PIMCO held both physical and futures positions in 10-year Treasury notes for its client accounts. The two actions have been consolidated into one action, and the two separate complaints have been replaced by a consolidated complaint. PIMCO is a named defendant, and the PIMCO Funds have been added as a defendant, to the consolidated action. PIMCO strongly believes the complaint (and any consolidated complaint filed hereafter) is without merit and intends to vigorously defend itself.
Certain Portfolios of the Trust were recently served in an adversary proceeding brought by the Official Committee of Asbestos Claimants of G-I Holdings, Inc. in G-I Holdings, Inc.’s bankruptcy in the District of New Jersey. PIMCO was previously named in this lawsuit and remains a defendant. The plaintiff seeks to recover for the bankruptcy estate assets that were transferred by the predecessor entity of G-I Holdings, Inc. to a wholly-owned subsidiary in 1994. The subsidiary has since issued notes, of which certain Portfolios of the Trust are alleged to be holders. The complaint alleges that in 2000, more than two hundred noteholders—including certain Portfolios of the Trust—were granted a second priority lien on the assets of the subsidiary in exchange for their consent to a refinancing transaction and the granting of a first priority lien to the lending banks. The plaintiff is seeking invalidation of the lien in favor of the noteholders and/or the value of the lien.
It is possible that these matters and/or other developments resulting from these matters could result in increased fund redemptions or other adverse consequences to the Portfolios. However, PIMCO and AGID believe that these matters are not likely to have a material adverse effect on the Portfolios or on PIMCO’s or AGID’s ability to perform their respective investment advisory or distribution services relating to the Portfolios.

Chairman’s Letter
Dear PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust Shareholder:
It is our pleasure to present to you the semiannual report for the PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust covering the six-month period ended June 30, 2006.
Highlights of the global bond markets during the six-month period included:
| n | | Most fixed-income sectors lost ground during the first half of 2006, as concern about accelerating inflation and central bank tightening pushed interest rates higher worldwide. The benchmark Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index (which includes Treasury, Investment-Grade Corporate, and Residential Mortgage-Backed Securities) returned -0.72% for the first six months of the year. On June 30, the benchmark ten-year Treasury yielded 5.14%, 0.75% higher than at the start of the year. The U.S. yield curve remained flat as shorter-maturity yields rose by a comparable amount. |
| n | | The Federal Reserve tightened four times during the reporting period, bringing the Federal Funds Rate to 5.25%. The increase near the end of the period was the Federal Reserve’s 17th consecutive rate hike since the start of its tightening cycle in 2004. The Federal Reserve was not alone, as central banks in Europe, India, and China tightened credit in unison for the first time since 2000. The Bank of Japan, whose zero-interest-rate policy has flooded global markets with liquidity, looked set to reverse this policy in the coming months. |
In these pages please find a more complete Portfolio review as it relates to financial-market activities, as well as details about total-return investment performance for the six-month reporting period. Thank you for the trust you have placed in us. We will continue to work diligently to meet your investment needs.
Sincerely,

Brent R. Harris
Chairman, PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust

Important Information About the Portfolio
PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust (the “Trust”) is an open-end management investment company currently consisting of nineteen separate investment portfolios, including the StocksPLUS® Total Return Portfolio (the “Portfolio”). The Portfolio is only available as a funding vehicle under variable life insurance policies or variable annuity contracts issued by insurance companies (“Variable Contracts”). Individuals may not purchase shares of the Portfolio directly. Shares of the Portfolio also may be sold to qualified pension and retirement plans outside of the separate account context.
We believe that bond funds have an important role to play in a well diversified investment portfolio. It is important to note, however, that in an environment where interest rates may trend upward, rising rates would negatively impact the performance of most bond funds, and fixed-income securities held by a fund are likely to decrease in value. The price volatility of fixed-income securities can also increase during periods of rising interest rates resulting in increased losses to a fund. Bond funds and individual bonds with a longer duration (a measure of the expected life of a security) tend to be more sensitive to changes in interest rates, usually making them more volatile than securities or funds with shorter durations. The longer-term performance of most bond funds has benefited from capital gains in part resulting from an extended period of declining interest rates. In the event interest rates increase, these capital gains should not be expected to recur.
The Portfolio may be subject to various risks in addition to those described above. Some of these risks may include, but are not limited to, the following: credit risk, high yield risk, market risk, issuer risk, liquidity risk, derivatives risk, equity risk, mortgage risk, non-U.S. investment risk, currency risk, leveraging risk and management risk. A complete description of these risks is contained in the Portfolio’s prospectus. The Portfolio may use derivative instruments for hedging purposes or as part of an investment strategy. Use of these instruments may involve certain costs and risks such as liquidity risk, interest rate risk, market risk, credit risk, management risk and the risk that the Portfolio could not close out a position when it would be most advantageous to do so. A Portfolio investing in derivatives could lose more than the principal amount invested in these instruments. Investing in non-U.S. securities may entail risk due to non-U.S. economic and political developments; this risk may be increased when investing in emerging markets.
On the performance summary page in this Semiannual Report, the Total Return Investment Performance table measures performance assuming that all dividend and capital gain distributions were reinvested.
An investment in the Portfolio is not a deposit of a bank and is not guaranteed or insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. It is possible to lose money on investments in the Portfolio.
PIMCO has adopted written proxy voting policies and procedures (“Proxy Policy”) as required by Rule 206(4)-6 under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940. The Proxy Policy has been adopted by the Trust as the policies and procedures that PIMCO will use when voting proxies on behalf of the Portfolio. Copies of the written Proxy Policy and the factors that PIMCO may consider in determining how to vote proxies for the Portfolio, and information about how the Portfolio voted proxies relating to portfolio securities held during the most recent twelve-month period ended June 30, are available without charge, upon request, by calling the Trust at 1-866-746-2606 and on the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) website at http://www.sec.gov.
The Portfolio files its complete schedule of portfolio holdings with the SEC for the first and third quarters of each fiscal year on Form N-Q. A copy of the Trust’s Form N-Q is available on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov and may be reviewed and copied at the SEC’s Public Reference Room in Washington D.C. Information on the operation of the Public Reference Room may be obtained by calling 1-800-SEC-0330.
PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust is distributed by Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC, 2187 Atlantic Street, Stamford, CT 06902.

The following disclosure provides important information regarding the Portfolio’s Expense Example (“Example” or “Expense Example”), which appears in this Semiannual Report. Please refer to this information when reviewing the Expense Example for the Portfolio.
Example
As a shareholder of the Portfolio, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs and (2) ongoing costs, including advisory and administrative fees; distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees (Administrative Class only); and other Portfolio expenses. The Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Portfolio and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Expense Example does not reflect any fees or other expenses imposed by the Variable Contracts. If it did, the expenses reflected in the Expense Examples would be higher. The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period indicated, which is from January 1, 2006 to June 30, 2006.
Actual Expenses
The information in the table under the heading “Actual Performance” provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in these columns, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.60), then multiply the result by the number in the appropriate column for your share class, in the row titled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The information in the table under the heading “Hypothetical Performance (5% return before expenses)” provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Portfolio’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Portfolio’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Portfolio and other portfolios. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other portfolios.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs. Therefore, the information under the heading “Hypothetical Performance (5% return before expenses)” is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different portfolios. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.
The expense ratio may vary period to period because of various factors, such as an increase in expenses not covered by the advisory and administrative fees (such as expenses of the trustees and their counsel or litigation expense).
Portfolio Benchmark
The S&P 500 Index is an unmanaged index generally considered representative of the stock market as a whole. It is not possible to invest directly in the index.

Past performance is no guarantee of future results. The performance quoted represents past performance. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so the Portfolio shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. The Portfolio’s performance does not reflect the deduction of additional charges and expenses imposed in connection with investing in Variable Contracts, which will reduce returns. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. Performance data current to the most recent month-end is available by calling (800) 927-4648.

Portfolio Insights
» | | The PIMCO StocksPLUS® Total Return Portfolio seeks to exceed the total return of the S&P 500 by investing under normal circumstances substantially all of its assets in S&P 500 derivatives, backed by a portfolio of Fixed-Income Instruments. |
» | | The first half of the year was a difficult environment for the StocksPLUS® Total Return strategy as most bonds lagged money market instruments; concern about accelerating inflation and central bank tightening pushed interest rates higher worldwide. |
» | | U.S. interest rate exposure was the dominant cause of underperformance as interest rates increased along the yield curve. |
» | | Holdings of Eurodollar instruments and other shorter (one year or less) holdings were particularly negative as rate increases were more pronounced in this part of the curve. |
» | | Broad diversification to higher-yielding bond sectors, primarily mortgages but also limited exposure to emerging market securities, helped partially buffer the underperformance associated with rising rates. |
» | | Other tactical strategies including municipal bond holdings and long exposure to the Yen and Euro currency helped returns. |

Notes to Financial Statements | | June 30, 2006 (Unaudited) |
1. ORGANIZATION
The StocksPLUS® Total Return Portfolio (the “Portfolio”) is a series of the PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust (the “Trust”). The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “Act”), as amended, as an open-end investment management company organized as a Delaware business trust on October 3, 1997. The Portfolio offers two classes of shares: Institutional and Administrative. Information presented in these financial statements pertains to the Administrative Class of the Portfolio. Certain detailed financial information for the Institutional Class is provided separately and is available upon request. The Trust is designed to be used as an investment vehicle by Separate Accounts of insurance companies that fund variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies and by qualified pension and retirement plans.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Portfolio in the preparation of its financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Security Valuation. Portfolio securities are valued as of the close of regular trading (normally 4:00 p.m., Eastern Time) on each day that the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) is open. Portfolio securities and other assets for which market quotes are readily available are stated at market value. Market value is generally determined on the basis of last reported sales prices, or if no sales are reported, based on quotes obtained from a quotation reporting system, established market makers, or pricing services. Fixed-income securities and non-exchange traded derivatives are normally valued on the basis of quotes obtained from brokers and dealers or pricing services. Prices obtained from independent pricing services use information provided by market makers or estimates of market values obtained from yield data relating to investments or securities with similar characteristics. Certain fixed-income securities purchased on a delayed-delivery basis are marked to market daily until settlement at the forward settlement date. Short-term investments having a maturity of 60 days or less are generally valued at amortized cost. Exchange traded options, futures and options on futures are valued at the settlement price determined by the relevant exchange.
Investments initially valued in currencies other than the U.S. dollar are converted to the U.S. dollar using exchange rates obtained from pricing services. As a result, the NAV of the Portfolio’s shares may be affected by changes in the value of currencies in relation to the U.S. dollar. The value of securities traded in markets outside the United States or denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar may be affected significantly on a day that the NYSE is closed and an investor is not able to purchase, redeem or exchange shares.
Securities and other assets for which market quotes are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction. The Board of Trustees has adopted methods for valuing securities and other assets in circumstances where market quotes are not readily available, and has delegated to Pacific Investment Management Company LLC (“PIMCO”) the responsibility for applying the valuation methods. In the event that market quotes are not readily available, and the security or asset cannot be valued pursuant to one of the valuation methods, the value of the security or asset will be determined in good faith by the Valuation Committee of the Board of Trustees, generally based upon recommendations provided by PIMCO.
Market quotes are considered not readily available in circumstances where there is an absence of current or reliable market-based data (e.g., trade information, bid/asked information, broker quotes), including where events occur after the close of the relevant market, but prior to the close of regular trading, that materially affect the values of the Portfolio’s securities or assets. In addition, market quotes are considered not readily available when, due to extraordinary circumstances, the exchanges or markets on which the securities trade do not open for trading for the entire day and no other market prices are available. The Board has delegated to PIMCO the responsibility for monitoring significant events that may materially affect the values of the Portfolio’s securities or assets and for determining whether the value of the applicable securities or assets should be re-evaluated in light of such significant events. When the Portfolio uses fair value pricing to determine its NAV, securities will not be priced on the basis of quotations from the primary market in which they are traded, but rather may be priced by another method that the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction believe accurately reflects fair value. The Trust’s policy is intended to result in a calculation of the Portfolio’s NAV that fairly reflects security values as of the time of pricing. However, fair values determined by the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction may not accurately reflect the price that the Portfolio could obtain for a security if it were to dispose of that security as of the time of pricing. Because foreign securities can trade on non-business days, the NAV of the Portfolio may change on days when shareholders will not be able to purchase or redeem shares. The prices used by the Portfolio may differ from the value that would be realized if the securities were sold and the differences could be material to the financial statements.
Securities Transactions and Investment Income. Securities transactions are recorded as of the trade date. Securities purchased or sold on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis may be settled a month or more after the trade date. Realized gains and losses from securities sold are recorded on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Portfolio is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, adjusted for the accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis. Paydown gains and losses on mortgage-related or asset-backed securities are recorded as components of interest income in the Statement of Operations.
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends from net investment income, if any, are declared and distributed to shareholders quarterly. Net realized capital gains earned by the Portfolio, if any, will be distributed no less frequently than once each year. Most shareholders choose to reinvest their dividends and capital gain distribution in additional shares of the Portfolio.
Income dividends and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP. Differences between tax regulations and GAAP may change the fiscal year when income and capital items are recognized for tax and GAAP purposes. Examples of events that give rise to timing differences include wash sales, straddles, net operating losses and capital loss carryforwards. Further, the character of investment income and capital gains may be different for certain transactions under the two methods of accounting. Examples of characterization differences include the treatment of mortgage paydowns, swaps, foreign currency transactions and contingent debt instruments. As a result, income dividends and capital gain distributions declared during a fiscal period may differ significantly from the net investment income and realized capital gain reported in the Portfolio’s annual financial statements presented under GAAP.
Distributions classified as a tax basis return of capital, if any, are reflected in the accompanying Statements of Changes in Net Assets and have been reclassified to paid in capital. In addition, other amounts have been reclassified between undistributed net investment income, accumulated undistributed net realized gains or losses and/or paid in capital to more appropriately conform financial accounting to tax characterizations of dividend distributions.

Notes to Financial Statements (Cont.)
Federal Income Taxes. The Portfolio intends to qualify as a regulated investment company under sub-chapter M of the Internal Revenue Code and distribute all of its taxable income and net realized gains, if applicable, to shareholders. Accordingly, no provision for Federal income taxes has been made.
Foreign Currency. The accounting records of the Portfolio are maintained in U.S. dollar. The market values of foreign securities, currency holdings and other assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollar based on the current exchange rates each business day. Fluctuations in the value of currency holdings and other assets and liabilities resulting from changes in exchange rates are recorded as unrealized foreign currency gains or losses. Realized gains or losses and unrealized appreciation or depreciation on investment securities and income and expenses are translated on the respective dates of such transactions. The effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on investments in securities are not segregated in the Statement of Operations from the effects of changes in market prices of those securities, but are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss on investment securities.

Non-U.S. currency symbols utilized throughout the report are defined as follows: |
CAD | | Canadian Dollar | | KRW | | South Korean Won |
EUR | | Euro | | SGD | | Singapore Dollar |
GBP | | British Pound | | TWD | | Taiwan Dollar |
JPY | | Japanese Yen | | | | |
Forward Currency Transactions. The Portfolio may enter into forward currency contracts in connection with settling planned purchases or sales of securities, to hedge the currency exposure associated with some or all of the Portfolio’s securities or as a part of an investment strategy. A forward currency contract is an agreement between two parties to buy and sell a currency at a set price on a future date. The market value of a forward currency contract fluctuates with changes in forward currency exchange rates. Forward currency contracts are marked to market daily and the change in value is recorded by the Portfolio as an unrealized gain or loss. Realized gains or losses equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed are recorded upon delivery or receipt of the currency or, if a forward currency contract is offset by entering into another forward currency contract with the same broker, upon settlement of the net gain or loss. These contracts may involve market risk in excess of the unrealized gain or loss reflected in the Portfolio’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities. In addition, the Portfolio could be exposed to risk if the counterparties are unable to meet the terms of the contracts or if the value of the currency changes unfavorably to the U.S. dollar.
Futures Contracts. The Portfolio is authorized to enter into futures contracts. The Portfolio may use futures contracts to manage its exposure to the securities markets or to movements in interest rates and currency values. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are the imperfect correlation between the change in market value of the securities held by the Portfolio and the prices of futures contracts, the possibility of an illiquid market, and the inability of the counterparty to meet the terms of the contract. Futures contracts are valued based upon their quoted daily settlement prices. Upon entering into a futures contract, the Portfolio is required to deposit with its custodian, in a segregated account in the name of the futures broker, an amount of cash or U.S. Government and Agency Obligations in accordance with the initial margin requirements of the broker or exchange. Futures contracts are marked to market daily and an appropriate payable or receivable for the change in value (“variation margin”) is recorded by the Portfolio. Gains or losses are recognized but not considered realized until the contracts expire or are closed. Futures contracts involve, to varying degrees, risk of loss in excess of the variation margin disclosed in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
Repurchase Agreements. The Portfolio may engage in repurchase transactions. Under the terms of a typical repurchase agreement, the Portfolio takes possession of an underlying debt obligation subject to an obligation of the seller to repurchase, and the Portfolio to resell, the obligation at an agreed-upon price and time. The market value of the collateral must be equal to or exceed at all times the total amount of the repurchase obligations, including interest. Securities purchased under repurchase agreements are reflected as an asset in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Generally, in the event of counterparty default, the Portfolio has the right to use the collateral to offset losses incurred. If the counterparty should default, the Portfolio will seek to sell the securities which it holds as collateral. This could involve procedural costs or delays in addition to a loss on the securities if their value should fall below their repurchase price.
Mortgage-Related and Other Asset-Backed Securities. The Portfolio may invest in mortgage-related or other asset-backed securities. These securities include mortgage pass-through securities, collateralized mortgage obligations (“CMOs”), commercial mortgage-backed securities, mortgage dollar rolls, CMO residuals, stripped mortgage-backed securities (“SMBSs”) and other securities that directly or indirectly represent a participation in, or are secured by and payable from, mortgage loans on real property. The value of some mortgage- or asset-backed securities may be particularly sensitive to changes in prevailing interest rates. Early repayment of principal on some mortgage-related securities may expose the Portfolio to a lower rate of return upon reinvestment of principal. The value of these securities may fluctuate in response to the market’s perception of the creditworthiness of the issuers. Additionally, although mortgages and mortgage-related securities are generally supported by some form of government or private guarantee and/or insurance, there is no assurance that private guarantors or insurers will meet their obligations.
One type of SMBS has one class receiving all of the interest from the mortgage assets (the interest-only, or “IO” class), while the other class will receive all of the principal (the principal-only, or “PO” class). Payments received for IOs are included in interest income in the Statement of Operations. Because principal will not be received at the maturity of an IO, adjustments are made to the book value of the security on a daily basis until maturity. These adjustments are included in interest income in the Statement of Operations. Payments received for POs are treated as reductions to the cost and par value of the securities.
Swap Agreements. The Portfolio may engage in swap transactions, including, but not limited to, swap agreements on interest rate, total return and credit default to manage its exposure to interest rates and credit risk. In connection with these agreements, securities may be identified as collateral in accordance with the terms of the respective swap agreements.
Interest rate swap agreements involve the exchange by the Portfolio with another party of their respective commitments to pay or receive interest, e.g., an exchange of floating rate payments for fixed rate payments with respect to the notional amount of principal.
Total return swap agreements involve commitments to pay interest in exchange for a market-linked return, both based on notional amounts. To the extent the total return of the security or index underlying the transaction exceeds or falls short of the offsetting interest rate obligation, the Portfolio will receive a payment from or make a payment to the counterparty.
Credit default swap agreements involve one party making a stream of payments to another party in exchange for the right to receive a specified return in the event of a default by a third party, typically corporate issues or sovereign issues of an emerging country, on its obligation. The Portfolio may use credit default swaps to provide a measure of protection against defaults of the issuers (i.e., to reduce risk where the Portfolio owns or has exposure to the sovereign issuer) or to take an
| | | | |

| | |
| |
| | June 30, 2006 (Unaudited) |
active long or short position with respect to the likelihood of a particular issuer’s default. As a seller of protection, the Portfolio generally receives an upfront payment or a fixed rate of income throughout the term of the swap provided that there is no credit event. If the Portfolio is a seller of protection and a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement, the Portfolio will pay to the buyer of the protection an amount up to the notional value of the swap and in certain instances take delivery of the security. As the seller, a Portfolio would effectively add leverage to its portfolio because, in addition to its total net assets, the Portfolio would be subject to investment exposure on the notional amount of the swap. As a buyer of protection, a Portfolio generally receives an amount up to the notional value of the swap if a credit event occurs. The treatment of credit default swaps and other swap agreements that provide for contingent, non-periodic, bullet-type payments as “notional principal contracts” for federal income tax purposes is uncertain. Were the Internal Revenue Service to take the position that a credit default swap or other bullet-type swap is not a “notional principal contract” for federal income tax purposes, payments received by the Portfolio from such investments might be subject to income taxes.
Swaps are marked to market daily based upon quotations from market makers and the change in value, if any, is recorded as unrealized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Payments received or made at the beginning of the measurement period are reflected as such in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. These upfront payments are recorded as realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations upon termination or maturity of the swap. A liquidation payment received or made at the termination of the swap is recorded as realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Net periodic payments received or paid by the Portfolio are included as part of realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Entering into these agreements involves, to varying degrees, elements of credit, market and documentation risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Such risks involve the possibility that there will be no liquid market for these agreements, that the counterparty to the agreements may default on its obligation to perform or disagree as to the meaning of contractual terms in the agreements and that there may be unfavorable changes in interest rates.
U.S. Government Agencies or Government-Sponsored Enterprises. Securities issued by U.S. Government agencies or government-sponsored enterprises may not be guaranteed by the U.S. Treasury. The Government National Mortgage Association (“GNMA”), a wholly owned U.S. Government corporation, is authorized to guarantee, with the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government, the timely payment of principal and interest on securities issued by institutions approved by GNMA and backed by pools of mortgages insured by the Federal Housing Administration or guaranteed by the Department of Veterans Affairs. Government-related guarantors (i.e., not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government) include the Federal National Mortgage Association (“FNMA” or “Fannie Mae”) and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“FHLMC” or “Freddie Mac”). Pass-through securities issued by FNMA are guaranteed as to timely payment of principal and interest by FNMA but are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government. FHLMC guarantees the timely payment of interest and ultimate collection of principal, but its participation certificates are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government.
Guarantees and Indemnifications. Under the Trust’s organizational documents, each Trustee, officer, employee or other agent of the Trust (including the Trust’s investment manager) is indemnified against certain liabilities that may arise out of performance of their duties to the Portfolio. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Portfolio enters into contracts that contain a variety of indemnification clauses. The Portfolio’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Portfolio that have not yet occurred. However, the Portfolio has not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts, and believes the risk of loss to be remote.
New Accounting Policies. In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes—an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (the “Interpretation”). The Interpretation is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. Management is currently evaluating the application of the Interpretation to the Portfolio and will provide additional information in relation to the Interpretation in the Portfolio’s annual financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2006.
3. FEES, EXPENSES, AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Investment Advisory Fee. PIMCO is a majority-owned subsidiary of Allianz Global Investors of America L.P. (“AGI”), and serves as investment adviser (the “Adviser”) to the Trust, pursuant to an investment advisory contract. The Adviser receives a monthly fee at an annual rate based on average daily net assets of the Portfolio. The Advisory Fee is charged at an annual rate of 0.49%.
Administration Fee. PIMCO serves as administrator (the “Administrator”), and provides administrative services to the Trust for which it receives a monthly administrative fee based on average daily net assets of the Portfolio. As the Administrator, PIMCO bears the costs of various third-party services, including audit, custodial, portfolio accounting, legal, transfer agency and printing costs. The Administration Fee is charged at the annual rate of 0.25%.
Distribution and Servicing Fees. Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC (“AGID”) is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of AGI and serves as the distributor of the Trust’s shares. The Trust is permitted to reimburse AGID on a quarterly basis, out of the Administrative Class assets of the Portfolio in the amount of 0.15% on an annual basis of the average daily net assets of that class, for payments made to financial intermediaries that provide services in connection with the distribution of shares or administration of plans or programs that use Portfolio shares as their funding medium. The effective rate paid to AGID was 0.15% during the current fiscal year.
Expenses. The Trust is responsible for the following expenses: (i) salaries and other compensation of any of the Trust’s executive officers and employees who are not officers, directors, stockholders or employees of PIMCO or its subsidiaries or affiliates; (ii) taxes and governmental fees; (iii) brokerage fees and commissions and other portfolio transaction expenses; (iv) the costs of borrowing money, including interest expenses and bank overdraft charges; (v) fees and expenses of the Trustees who are not “interested persons” of PIMCO or the Trust, and any counsel retained exclusively for their benefit; (vi) extraordinary expenses, including costs of litigation and indemnification expenses; (vii) organization expenses and (viii) any expenses allocated or allocable to a specific class of shares, which include service fees payable with respect to the Administrative Class shares and may include certain other expenses as permitted by the Trust’s Multiple Class Plan adopted pursuant to Rule 18f-3 under the Act and subject to review and approval by the Trustees. The ratio of expenses to average net assets per share class, as disclosed in the Financial Highlights, may differ from the annual portfolio operating expenses per share class as disclosed in the Prospectus for the reasons set forth above.
PIMCO has agreed to waive a portion of its administrative fees to the extent that the payment of the Portfolio’s pro rata share of organization expenses and Trustee fees cause the actual expense ratio to rise above the rates disclosed in the then-current prospectus plus 0.49 basis points as set forth below (calculated as a percentage of the Portfolio’s average daily net assets attributable to each class):
| | | |
Administrative Class | | 0.89 | % |
| | | | | | |
| | Semiannual Report | | June 30, 2006 | | 13 |
Notes to Financial Statements (Cont.)
PIMCO may be reimbursed for these waived amounts in future periods, not to exceed thirty-six months. Expenses that have been waived and may still be reimbursed by the Administrator, to the extent the Portfolio’s annualized total portfolio operating expenses plus the amount so reimbursed does not exceed the operating expense limitation, are as follows (amounts in thousands):
| | | | | | | | | | |
| | | | | 12/31/2005 | | | | | 06/30/2006 |
Amount Available for Reimbursement | | | | $ | 9 | | | | $ | 0 |
For the current period ended June 30, 2006, each unaffiliated Trustee received an annual retainer of $15,000, plus $2,000 for each Board of Trustees quarterly meeting attended, $500 for each Board of Trustees committee meeting attended and $500 for each special board meeting attended, plus reimbursement of related expenses. In addition, each Committee Chair received an additional annual retainer of $500 and each Audit Committee Chair received an additional annual retainer of $1,500. These expenses are allocated on a pro-rata basis to each Portfolio of the Trust according to its respective net assets. The Trust pays no compensation directly to any Trustee or any other officer who is affiliated with the Administrator, all of whom receive remuneration for their services to the Trust from the Administrator or its affiliates.
4. PURCHASES AND SALES OF SECURITIES
The length of time the Portfolio has held a particular security is not generally a consideration in investment decisions. A change in the securities held by the Portfolio is known as “portfolio turnover”. The Portfolio may engage in frequent and active trading of portfolio securities to achieve its investment objective, particularly during periods of volatile market movements. High portfolio turnover (e.g., over 100%) involves correspondingly greater expenses to the Portfolio, including brokerage commissions or dealer mark-ups and other transaction costs on the sale of securities and reinvestments in other securities. Such sales may also result in realization of taxable capital gains, including short-term capital gains (which are generally taxed at ordinary income tax rates). The trading costs and tax effects associated with portfolio turnover may adversely affect the Portfolio’s performance.
Purchases and sales of securities (excluding short-term investments) for the period ended June 30, 2006 were as follows (amounts in thousands):
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
U.S Government/Agency | | | | All Other |

8. REGULATORY AND LITIGATION MATTERS
On June 1, 2004, the Attorney General of the State of New Jersey announced that it had dismissed PIMCO from a complaint filed by the New Jersey Attorney General on February 17, 2004, and that it had entered into a settlement agreement (the “New Jersey Settlement”) with Allianz Global Investors of America L.P. (“AGI”) (formerly known as Allianz Dresdner Asset Management of America L.P.), PEA Capital LLC (an entity affiliated with PIMCO through common ownership) (“PEA”) and Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC (“AGID”), in connection with the same matter. In the New Jersey Settlement, AGI, PEA and AGID neither admitted nor denied the allegations or conclusions of law, but did agree to pay New Jersey a civil fine of $15 million and $3 million for investigative costs and further potential enforcement initiatives against unrelated parties. They also undertook to implement certain governance changes. The complaint relating to the New Jersey Settlement alleged, among other things, that AGI, PEA and AGID had failed to disclose that they improperly allowed certain hedge funds to engage in “market timing” in certain funds. The complaint sought injunctive relief, civil monetary penalties, restitution and disgorgement of profits.
Since February 2004, PIMCO, AGI, PEA, AGID, and certain of their affiliates, including the PIMCO Funds, the Allianz Funds (formerly known as PIMCO Funds: Multi-Manager Series), and the Trustees and employees of the PIMCO Funds, have been named as defendants in fifteen lawsuits filed in various jurisdictions. Eleven
| | | | |
14 | | PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust | | |
| | |
| |
| | June 30, 2006 (Unaudited) |
of those lawsuits concern “market timing,” and they have been transferred to and consolidated for pre-trial proceedings in a multi-district litigation proceeding in the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland; the other four lawsuits concern “revenue sharing” and have been consolidated into a single action in the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut. The lawsuits have been commenced as putative class actions on behalf of investors who purchased, held or redeemed shares of the various series of the PIMCO Funds and the Allianz Funds during specified periods, or as derivative actions on behalf of the PIMCO Funds and Allianz Funds.
The market timing actions in the District of Maryland generally allege that certain hedge funds were allowed to engage in “market timing” in certain of the PIMCO Funds and the Allianz Funds and this alleged activity was not disclosed. Pursuant to tolling agreements entered into with the derivative and class action plaintiffs, PIMCO, the Trustees, and certain employees of PIMCO who were previously named as defendants have all been dropped as defendants in the market timing actions; the plaintiffs continue to assert claims on behalf of the shareholders of the PIMCO Funds or on behalf of the PIMCO Funds themselves against other defendants. By order dated November 3, 2005, the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland granted the PIMCO Funds’ motion to dismiss claims asserted against it in a consolidated amended complaint where the PIMCO Funds were named, in the complaint, as a nominal defendant. The revenue sharing action in the District of Connecticut generally alleges that fund assets were inappropriately used to pay brokers to promote the PIMCO Funds and Allianz Funds, including directing fund brokerage transactions to such brokers, and that such alleged arrangements were not fully disclosed to shareholders. On August 11, 2005 the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut conducted a hearing on defendants’ motion to dismiss the consolidated amended complaint in the revenue sharing action but has not yet ruled on the motion to dismiss. The market timing and revenue sharing lawsuits seek, among other things, unspecified compensatory damages plus interest and, in some cases, punitive damages, the rescission of investment advisory contracts, the return of fees paid under those contracts and restitution.
Under Section 9(a) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“1940 Act”), if the New Jersey Settlement or any of the lawsuits described above were to result in a court injunction against AGI, PEA, AGID and/or their affiliates, PIMCO could, in the absence of exemptive relief granted by the SEC, be barred from serving as an investment adviser, and AGID could be barred from serving as principal underwriter, to any registered investment company, including the Portfolios of the Trust. In connection with an inquiry from the SEC concerning the status of the New Jersey Settlement under Section 9(a), PEA, AGID, AGI and certain of their affiliates (including PIMCO) (together, the “Applicants”) have sought exemptive relief from the SEC under Section 9(c) of the 1940 Act. The SEC has granted the Applicants a temporary exemption from the provisions of Section 9(a) with respect to the New Jersey Settlement until the earlier of (i) September 13, 2006 and (ii) the date on which the SEC takes final action on their application for a permanent order. There is no assurance that the SEC will issue a permanent order.
Two nearly identical class action civil complaints have been filed in August 2005, in the Northern District of Illinois Eastern Division alleging that the plaintiffs each purchased and sold a 10-year Treasury note futures contract and suffered damages from an alleged shortage when PIMCO held both physical and futures positions in 10-year Treasury notes for its client accounts. The two actions have been consolidated into one action, and the two separate complaints have been replaced by a consolidated complaint. PIMCO is a named defendant, and the PIMCO Funds have been added as a defendant, to the consolidated action. PIMCO strongly believes the complaint (and any consolidated complaint filed hereafter) is without merit and intends to vigorously defend itself.
Certain Portfolios of the Trust were recently served in an adversary proceeding brought by the Official Committee of Asbestos Claimants of G-I Holdings, Inc. in G-I Holdings, Inc.’s bankruptcy in the District of New Jersey. PIMCO was previously named in this lawsuit and remains a defendant. The plaintiff seeks to recover for the bankruptcy estate assets that were transferred by the predecessor entity of G-I Holdings, Inc. to a wholly-owned subsidiary in 1994. The subsidiary has since issued notes, of which certain Portfolios of the Trust are alleged to be holders. The complaint alleges that in 2000, more than two hundred noteholders—including certain Portfolios of the Trust—were granted a second priority lien on the assets of the subsidiary in exchange for their consent to a refinancing transaction and the granting of a first priority lien to the lending banks. The plaintiff is seeking invalidation of the lien in favor of the noteholders and/or the value of the lien.
It is possible that these matters and/or other developments resulting from these matters could result in increased fund redemptions or other adverse consequences to the Portfolios. However, PIMCO and AGID believe that these matters are not likely to have a material adverse effect on the Portfolios or on PIMCO’s or AGID’s ability to perform their respective investment advisory or distribution services relating to the Portfolios.

Chairman’s Letter
Dear PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust Shareholder:
It is our pleasure to present to you the semiannual report for the PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust covering the six-month period ended June 30, 2006.
Highlights of the global bond markets during the six-month period included:
| n | | Most fixed-income sectors lost ground during the first half of 2006, as concern about accelerating inflation and central bank tightening pushed interest rates higher worldwide. The benchmark Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index (which includes Treasury, Investment-Grade Corporate, and Residential Mortgage-Backed Securities) returned -0.72% for the first six months of the year. On June 30, the benchmark ten-year Treasury yielded 5.14%, 0.75% higher than at the start of the year. The U.S. yield curve remained flat as shorter-maturity yields rose by a comparable amount. |
| n | | The Federal Reserve tightened four times during the reporting period, bringing the Federal Funds Rate to 5.25%. The increase near the end of the period was the Federal Reserve’s 17th consecutive rate hike since the start of its tightening cycle in 2004. The Federal Reserve was not alone, as central banks in Europe, India, and China tightened credit in unison for the first time since 2000. The Bank of Japan, whose zero-interest-rate policy has flooded global markets with liquidity, looked set to reverse this policy in the coming months. |
In these pages please find a more complete Portfolio review as it relates to financial-market activities, as well as details about total-return investment performance for the six-month reporting period. Thank you for the trust you have placed in us. We will continue to work diligently to meet your investment needs.
Sincerely,

Brent R. Harris
Chairman, PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust

Important Information About the Portfolio
PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust (the “Trust”) is an open-end management investment company currently consisting of nineteen separate investment portfolios, including the Total Return Portfolio (the “Portfolio”). The Portfolio is only available as a funding vehicle under variable life insurance policies or variable annuity contracts issued by insurance companies (“Variable Contracts”). Individuals may not purchase shares of the Portfolio directly. Shares of the Portfolio also may be sold to qualified pension and retirement plans outside of the separate account context.
We believe that bond funds have an important role to play in a well diversified investment portfolio. It is important to note, however, that in an environment where interest rates may trend upward, rising rates would negatively impact the performance of most bond funds, and fixed-income securities held by a fund are likely to decrease in value. The price volatility of fixed-income securities can also increase during periods of rising interest rates resulting in increased losses to a fund. Bond funds and individual bonds with a longer duration (a measure of the expected life of a security) tend to be more sensitive to changes in interest rates, usually making them more volatile than securities or funds with shorter durations. The longer-term performance of most bond funds has benefited from capital gains in part resulting from an extended period of declining interest rates. In the event interest rates increase, these capital gains should not be expected to recur.
The Portfolio may be subject to various risks in addition to those described above. Some of these risks may include, but are not limited to, the following: credit risk, high yield risk, market risk, issuer risk, liquidity risk, derivatives risk, mortgage risk, non-U.S. investment risk, currency risk, leveraging risk and management risk. A complete description of these risks is contained in the Portfolio’s prospectus. The Portfolio may use derivative instruments for hedging purposes or as part of an investment strategy. Use of these instruments may involve certain costs and risks such as liquidity risk, interest rate risk, market risk, credit risk, management risk and the risk that the Portfolio could not close out a position when it would be most advantageous to do so. A Portfolio investing in derivatives could lose more than the principal amount invested in these instruments. Investing in non-U.S. securities may entail risk due to non-U.S. economic and political developments; this risk may be increased when investing in emerging markets.
On the performance summary page in this Semiannual Report, the Total Return Investment Performance table measures performance assuming that all dividend and capital gain distributions were reinvested.
An investment in the Portfolio is not a deposit of a bank and is not guaranteed or insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. It is possible to lose money on investments in the Portfolio.
PIMCO has adopted written proxy voting policies and procedures (“Proxy Policy”) as required by Rule 206(4)-6 under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940. The Proxy Policy has been adopted by the Trust as the policies and procedures that PIMCO will use when voting proxies on behalf of the Portfolio. Copies of the written Proxy Policy and the factors that PIMCO may consider in determining how to vote proxies for the Portfolio, and information about how the Portfolio voted proxies relating to portfolio securities held during the most recent twelve-month period ended June 30, are available without charge, upon request, by calling the Trust at 1-866-746-2606 and on the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) website at http://www.sec.gov.
The Portfolio files its complete schedule of portfolio holdings with the SEC for the first and third quarters of each fiscal year on Form N-Q. A copy of the Trust’s Form N-Q is available on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov and may be reviewed and copied at the SEC’s Public Reference Room in Washington D.C. Information on the operation of the Public Reference Room may be obtained by calling 1-800-SEC-0330.
PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust is distributed by Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC, 2187 Atlantic Street, Stamford, CT 06902.

The following disclosure provides important information regarding the Portfolio’s Expense Example (“Example” or “Expense Example”), which appears in this Semiannual Report. Please refer to this information when reviewing the Expense Example for the Portfolio.
Example
As a shareholder of the Portfolio, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs and (2) ongoing costs, including advisory and administrative fees; distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees (Administrative Class only); and other Portfolio expenses. The Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Portfolio and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Expense Example does not reflect any fees or other expenses imposed by the Variable Contracts. If it did, the expenses reflected in the Expense Examples would be higher. The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period indicated, which is from January 1, 2006 to June 30, 2006.
Actual Expenses
The information in the table under the heading “Actual Performance” provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in these columns, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.60), then multiply the result by the number in the appropriate column for your share class, in the row titled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The information in the table under the heading “Hypothetical Performance (5% return before expenses)” provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Portfolio’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Portfolio’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Portfolio and other portfolios. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other portfolios.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs. Therefore, the information under the heading “Hypothetical Performance (5% return before expenses)” is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different portfolios. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.
The expense ratio may vary period to period because of various factors, such as an increase in expenses not covered by the advisory and administrative fees (such as expenses of the trustees and their counsel or litigation expense).
Portfolio Benchmark
Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index represents securities that are taxable, and dollar denominated. The index covers the U.S. investment grade fixed rate bond market, with index components for government and corporate securities, mortgage pass-through securities, and asset-backed securities. These major sectors are subdivided into more specific indices that are calculated and reported on a regular basis. It is not possible to invest directly in this index.

* Cumulative return.
Past performance is no guarantee of future results. The performance quoted represents past performance. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so the Portfolio shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. The Portfolio’s performance does not reflect the deduction of additional charges and expenses imposed in connection with investing in Variable Contracts, which will reduce returns. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. Performance data current to the most recent month-end is available by calling (800) 927-4648.

Expenses Paid During Period† | | | | $ | 3.21 | | | | $ | 3.26 |
† Expenses are equal to the Portfolio’s Administrative Class annualized expense ratio of 0.65%, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 181/365 (to reflect the one-half year period). Overall fees and expenses of investing in the Portfolio will be higher because the example does not reflect Variable Contract fees and expenses.
Please refer to page 3 herein for a description of the Portfolio’s benchmark and an explanation of the information presented in the above Expense Example.
Portfolio Insights
» | | The PIMCO Total Return Portfolio seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing under normal circumstances at least 65% of its total assets in a diversified portfolio of Fixed-Income Instruments of varying maturities. |
» | | The Portfolio’s above-benchmark duration detracted from returns as yields rose in the first half of the year. |
» | | An emphasis on short-term maturities detracted from performance as short-term yields rose more than longer-dated yields. The Federal Reserve continued with its tightening policy, sending short-term rates higher while intermediate- and longer-term rates shifted higher. |
» | | An overweight to mortgages contributed to returns as this sector outperformed like-duration Treasuries. |
» | | An underweight to corporate securities detracted from returns as this sector outperformed like-duration Treasuries. |
» | | Strategies designed to benefit when Euroland bonds underperform Treasuries added to returns as European yields increased more than yields in the U.S. |
» | | An allocation to the Yen and the Euro was positive for returns, as both currencies appreciated relative to the dollar. |
» | | Emerging Market bonds added to performance, as strong demand for their attractive yields and improving credit fundamentals caused yield premiums to decline. |
» | | A tactical allocation to municipal bonds was positive for performance as municipal yields rose less than Treasury yields. |

Notes to Financial Statements
1. ORGANIZATION
The Total Return Portfolio (the “Portfolio”) is a series of the PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust (the “Trust”). The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “Act”), as amended, as an open-end investment management company organized as a Delaware business trust on October 3, 1997. The Portfolio offers three classes of shares: Institutional, Administrative and Advisor. Information presented in these financial statements pertains to the Administrative Class of the Portfolio. Certain detailed financial information for the Institutional Class and Advisor Class is provided separately and is available upon request. The Trust is designed to be used as an investment vehicle by Separate Accounts of insurance companies that fund variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies and by qualified pension and retirement plans.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Portfolio in the preparation of its financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Security Valuation. Portfolio securities are valued as of the close of regular trading (normally 4:00 p.m., Eastern Time) on each day that the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) is open. Portfolio securities and other assets for which market quotes are readily available are stated at market value. Market value is generally determined on the basis of last reported sales prices, or if no sales are reported, based on quotes obtained from a quotation reporting system, established market makers, or pricing services. Fixed-income securities and non-exchange traded derivatives are normally valued on the basis of quotes obtained from brokers and dealers or pricing services. Prices obtained from independent pricing services use information provided by market makers or estimates of market values obtained from yield data relating to investments or securities with similar characteristics. Certain fixed-income securities purchased on a delayed-delivery basis are marked to market daily until settlement at the forward settlement date. Short-term investments having a maturity of 60 days or less are generally valued at amortized cost. Exchange traded options, futures and options on futures are valued at the settlement price determined by the relevant exchange.
Investments initially valued in currencies other than the U.S. dollar are converted to the U.S. dollar using exchange rates obtained from pricing services. As a result, the NAV of the Portfolio’s shares may be affected by changes in the value of currencies in relation to the U.S. dollar. The value of securities traded in markets outside the United States or denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar may be affected significantly on a day that the NYSE is closed and an investor is not able to purchase, redeem or exchange shares.
Securities and other assets for which market quotes are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction. The Board of Trustees has adopted methods for valuing securities and other assets in circumstances where market quotes are not readily available, and has delegated to Pacific Investment Management Company LLC (“PIMCO”) the responsibility for applying the valuation methods. In the event that market quotes are not readily available, and the security or asset cannot be valued pursuant to one of the valuation methods, the value of the security or asset will be determined in good faith by the Valuation Committee of the Board of Trustees, generally based upon recommendations provided by PIMCO.
Market quotes are considered not readily available in circumstances where there is an absence of current or reliable market-based data (e.g., trade information, bid/asked information, broker quotes), including where events occur after the close of the relevant market, but prior to the close of regular trading, that materially affect the values of the Portfolio’s securities or assets. In addition, market quotes are considered not readily available when, due to extraordinary circumstances, the exchanges or markets on which the securities trade do not open for trading for the entire day and no other market prices are available. The Board has delegated to PIMCO the responsibility for monitoring significant events that may materially affect the values of the Portfolio’s securities or assets and for determining whether the value of the applicable securities or assets should be re-evaluated in light of such significant events. When the Portfolio uses fair value pricing to determine its NAV, securities will not be priced on the basis of quotations from the primary market in which they are traded, but rather may be priced by another method that the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction believe accurately reflects fair value. The Trust’s policy is intended to result in a calculation of the Portfolio’s NAV that fairly reflects security values as of the time of pricing. However, fair values determined by the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction may not accurately reflect the price that the Portfolio could obtain for a security if it were to dispose of that security as of the time of pricing. Because foreign securities can trade on non-business days, the NAV of the Portfolio may change on days when shareholders will not be able to purchase or redeem shares. The prices used by the Portfolio may differ from the value that would be realized if the securities were sold and the differences could be material to the financial statements.
Securities Transactions and Investment Income. Securities transactions are recorded as of the trade date. Securities purchased or sold on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis may be settled a month or more after the trade date. Realized gains and losses from securities sold are recorded on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Portfolio is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, adjusted for the accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis. Paydown gains and losses on mortgage-related or asset-backed securities are recorded as components of interest income in the Statement of Operations.
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends from net investment income, if any, are declared on each day the Portfolio is open for business and are distributed to shareholders monthly. Net realized capital gains earned by the Portfolio, if any, will be distributed no less frequently than once each year. Most shareholders choose to reinvest their dividends and capital gain distribution in additional shares of the Portfolio.
Income dividends and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP. Differences between tax regulations and GAAP may change the fiscal year when income and capital items are recognized for tax and GAAP purposes. Examples of events that give rise to timing differences include wash sales, straddles, net operating losses and capital loss carryforwards. Further, the character of investment income and capital gains may be different for certain transactions under the two methods of accounting. Examples of characterization differences include the treatment of mortgage paydowns, swaps, foreign currency transactions and contingent debt instruments. As a result, income dividends and capital gain distributions declared during a fiscal period may differ significantly from the net investment income and realized capital gain reported in the Portfolio’s annual financial statements presented under GAAP.
Distributions classified as a tax basis return of capital, if any, are reflected in the accompanying Statements of Changes in Net Assets and have been reclassified to
| | | | |

paid in capital. In addition, other amounts have been reclassified between undistributed net investment income, accumulated undistributed net realized gains or losses and/or paid in capital to more appropriately conform financial accounting to tax characterizations of dividend distributions.
Multiclass Operations. Each class offered by the Portfolio has equal rights as to assets and voting privileges (except that shareholders of a class have exclusive voting rights regarding any matter relating solely to that class of shares). Income and non-class specific expenses of the Portfolio are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative value of settled shares. Realized and unrealized capital gains and losses of the Portfolio are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative net assets of each class. Class specific expenses, where applicable, currently include administrative, distribution and servicing fees.
Delayed-Delivery Transactions. The Portfolio may purchase or sell securities on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis. These transactions involve a commitment by the Portfolio to purchase or sell securities for a predetermined price or yield, with payment and delivery taking place beyond the customary settlement period. When delayed-delivery purchases are outstanding, the Portfolio will designate liquid assets in an amount sufficient to meet the purchase price. When purchasing a security on a delayed-delivery basis, the Portfolio assumes the rights and risks of ownership of the security, including the risk of price and yield fluctuations, and takes such fluctuations into account when determining its net asset value. The Portfolio may dispose of or renegotiate a delayed-delivery transaction after it is entered into, and may sell when-issued securities before they are delivered, which may result in a capital gain or loss. When the Portfolio has sold a security on a delayed-delivery basis, the Portfolio does not participate in future gains and losses with respect to the security.
Federal Income Taxes. The Portfolio intends to qualify as a regulated investment company under sub-chapter M of the Internal Revenue Code and distribute all of its taxable income and net realized gains, if applicable, to shareholders. Accordingly, no provision for Federal income taxes has been made.
Foreign Currency. The accounting records of the Portfolio are maintained in U.S. dollar. The market values of foreign securities, currency holdings and other assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollar based on the current exchange rates each business day. Fluctuations in the value of currency holdings and other assets and liabilities resulting from changes in exchange rates are recorded as unrealized foreign currency gains or losses. Realized gains or losses and unrealized appreciation or depreciation on investment securities and income and expenses are translated on the respective dates of such transactions. The effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on investments in securities are not segregated in the Statement of Operations from the effects of changes in market prices of those securities, but are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss on investment securities.

Forward Currency Transactions. The Portfolio may enter into forward currency contracts in connection with settling planned purchases or sales of securities, to hedge the currency exposure associated with some or all of the Portfolio’s securities or as a part of an investment strategy. A forward currency contract is an agreement between two parties to buy and sell a currency at a set price on a future date. The market value of a forward currency contract fluctuates with changes in forward currency exchange rates. Forward currency contracts are marked to market daily and the change in value is recorded by the Portfolio as an unrealized gain or loss. Realized gains or losses equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed are recorded upon delivery or receipt of the currency or, if a forward currency contract is offset by entering into another forward currency contract with the same broker, upon settlement of the net gain or loss. These contracts may involve market risk in excess of the unrealized gain or loss reflected in the Portfolio’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities. In addition, the Portfolio could be exposed to risk if the counterparties are unable to meet the terms of the contracts or if the value of the currency changes unfavorably to the U.S. dollar.
Futures Contracts. The Portfolio is authorized to enter into futures contracts. The Portfolio may use futures contracts to manage its exposure to the securities markets or to movements in interest rates and currency values. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are the imperfect correlation between the change in market value of the securities held by the Portfolio and the prices of futures contracts, the possibility of an illiquid market, and the inability of the counterparty to meet the terms of the contract. Futures contracts are valued based upon their quoted daily settlement prices. Upon entering into a futures contract, the Portfolio is required to deposit with its custodian, in a segregated account in the name of the futures broker, an amount of cash or U.S. Government and Agency Obligations in accordance with the initial margin requirements of the broker or exchange. Futures contracts are marked to market daily and an appropriate payable or receivable for the change in value (“variation margin”) is recorded by the Portfolio. Gains or losses are recognized but not considered realized until the contracts expire or are closed. Futures contracts involve, to varying degrees, risk of loss in excess of the variation margin disclosed in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
Guarantees and Indemnifications. Under the Trust’s organizational documents, each Trustee, officer, employee or other agent of the Trust (including the Trust’s investment manager) is indemnified against certain liabilities that may arise out of performance of their duties to the Portfolio. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Portfolio enters into contracts that contain a variety of indemnification clauses. The Portfolio’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Portfolio that have not yet occurred. However, the Portfolio has not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts, and believes the risk of loss to be remote.
Inflation-Indexed Bonds. The Portfolio may invest in inflation-indexed bonds. Inflation-indexed bonds are fixed-income securities whose principal value is periodically adjusted to the rate of inflation. The interest rate on these bonds is generally fixed at issuance at a rate lower than typical bonds. Over the life of an inflation-indexed bond, however, interest will be paid based on a principal value, which is adjusted for inflation. Any increase in the principal amount of an inflation-indexed bond will be included as interest income in the Statement of Operations, even though investors do not receive their principal until maturity.
Loan Participant and Assignments. The Portfolio may invest in direct debt instruments which are interests in amounts owned by corporate, governmental, or other borrowers to lenders or lending syndicates. The Portfolio’s investments in loans may be in the form of participations in loans or assignments of all or a portion of loans from third parties. A loan is often administered by a bank or other

| | Semiannual Report | | June 30, 2006 | | 17 |
Notes to Financial Statements (Cont.)
financial institution (the “lender”) that acts as agent for all holders. Then agent administers the terms of the loan, as specified in the loan agreement. When investing in a loan participation, the Portfolio has the right to receive payments of principal, interest and any fees to which it is entitled only from the lender selling the loan agreement and only upon receipt by the lender of payments from the borrower. The Portfolio generally has no right to enforce compliance with the terms of the loan agreement with the borrower. As a result, the Portfolio may be subject to the credit of both the borrower and the lender that is selling the loan agreement. When the Portfolio purchases assignments from lenders it acquires direct rights against the borrower on the loan. At the end of the period, the Portfolio had no unfunded loan commitments.
Options Contracts. The Portfolio may write call and put options on futures, swaps, securities or currencies it owns or in which it may invest. Writing put options tends to increase the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. Writing call options tends to decrease the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. When the Portfolio writes a call or put option, an amount equal to the premium received is recorded as a liability and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the option written. These liabilities are reflected as written options outstanding in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Certain options may be written with premiums to determined on a future date. The premiums for these options are based upon implied volatility parameters at specified terms. Premiums received from writing options which expire are treated as realized gains. Premiums received from writing options which are exercised or closed are added to the proceeds or offset against amounts paid on the underlying future, swap, security or currency transaction to determine the realized gain or loss. The Portfolio as a writer of an option has no control over whether the underlying future, swap, security or currency may be sold (call) or purchased (put) and as a result bears the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the future, swap, security or currency underlying the written option. There is the risk the Portfolio may not be able to enter into a closing transaction because of an illiquid market.
The Portfolio may also purchase put and call options. Purchasing call options tends to increase the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. Purchasing put options tends to decrease the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. The Portfolio pays a premium which is included in the Portfolio’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an investment and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the option. Premiums paid for purchasing options which expire are treated as realized losses. Certain options may be purchased with premiums to be determined on a future date. The premiums for these options are based upon implied volatility parameters at specified terms. The risk associated with purchasing put and call options is limited to the premium paid. Premiums paid for purchasing options which are exercised or closed are added to the amounts paid or offset against the proceeds on the underlying future, swap, security or currency transaction to determine the realized gain or loss.
Repurchase Agreements. The Portfolio may engage in repurchase transactions. Under the terms of a typical repurchase agreement, the Portfolio takes possession of an underlying debt obligation subject to an obligation of the seller to repurchase, and the Portfolio to resell, the obligation at an agreed-upon price and time. The underlying securities for all repurchase agreements are held in safekeeping at the Portfolio’s custodian or designated subcustodians under triparty repurchase agreements. The market value of the collateral must be equal to or exceed at all times the total amount of the repurchase obligations, including interest. Securities purchased under repurchase agreements are reflected as an asset in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Generally, in the event of counterparty default, the Portfolio has the right to use the collateral to offset losses incurred. If the counterparty should default, the Portfolio will seek to sell the securities which it holds as collateral. This could involve procedural costs or delays in addition to a loss on the securities if their value should fall below their repurchase price.
Mortgage-Related and Other Asset-Backed Securities. The Portfolio may invest in mortgage-related or other asset-backed securities. These securities include mortgage pass-through securities, collateralized mortgage obligations (“CMOs”), commercial mortgage-backed securities, mortgage dollar rolls, CMO residuals, stripped mortgage-backed securities (“SMBSs”) and other securities that directly or indirectly represent a participation in, or are secured by and payable from, mortgage loans on real property. The value of some mortgage- or asset-backed securities may be particularly sensitive to changes in prevailing interest rates. Early repayment of principal on some mortgage-related securities may expose a Portfolio to a lower rate of return upon reinvestment of principal. The value of these securities may fluctuate in response to the market’s perception of the creditworthiness of the issuers. Additionally, although mortgages and mortgage-related securities are generally supported by some form of government or private guarantee and/or insurance, there is no assurance that private guarantors or insurers will meet their obligations.
One type of SMBS has one class receiving all of the interest from the mortgage assets (the interest-only, or “IO” class), while the other class will receive all of the principal (the principal-only, or “PO” class). Payments received for IOs are included in interest income in the Statement of Operations. Because principal will not be received at the maturity of an IO, adjustments are made to the book value of the security on a daily basis until maturity. These adjustments are included in interest income in the Statement of Operations. Payments received for POs are treated as reductions to the cost and par value of the securities.
Swap Agreements. The Portfolio may engage in swap transactions, including, but not limited to, swap agreements on interest rate and credit default to manage its exposure to interest rates and credit risk. In connection with these agreements, securities may be identified as collateral in accordance with the terms of the respective swap agreements.
Interest rate swap agreements involve the exchange by the Portfolio with another party of their respective commitments to pay or receive interest, e.g., an exchange of floating rate payments for fixed rate payments with respect to the notional amount of principal.
Credit default swap agreements involve one party making a stream of payments to another party in exchange for the right to receive a specified return in the event of a default by a third party, typically corporate issues or sovereign issues of an emerging country, on its obligation. The Portfolio may use credit default swaps to provide a measure of protection against defaults of the issuers (i.e., to reduce risk where the Portfolio owns or has exposure to the sovereign issuer) or to take an active long or short position with respect to the likelihood of a particular issuer’s default. As a seller of protection, the Portfolio generally receives an upfront payment or a fixed rate of income throughout the term of the swap provided that there is no credit event. If the Portfolio is a seller of protection and a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement, the Portfolio will pay to the buyer of the protection an amount up to the notional value of the swap and in certain instances take delivery of the security. As the seller, a Portfolio would effectively add leverage to its portfolio because, in addition to its total net assets, the Portfolio would be subject to investment exposure on the notional amount of the swap. As a buyer of protection, a Portfolio generally receives an amount up to the notional value of the swap if a credit event occurs. The treatment of credit default swaps and other swap agreements that provide for contingent, non-periodic, bullet-type payments as “notional principal contracts” for federal income tax purposes is uncertain. Were the Internal Revenue Service to take the position that a credit default swap or other bullet-type swap is not a “notional principal contract” for federal income tax purposes, payments received by the Portfolio from such investments might be subject to income taxes.
Swaps are marked to market daily based upon quotations from market makers and the change in value, if any, is recorded as unrealized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Payments received or made at the beginning of the measurement

period are reflected as such in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. These upfront payments are recorded as realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations upon termination or maturity of the swap. A liquidation payment received or made at the termination of the swap is recorded as realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Net periodic payments received or paid by the Portfolio are included as part of realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Entering into these agreements involves, to varying degrees, elements of credit, market and documentation risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Such risks involve the possibility that there will be no liquid market for these agreements, that the counterparty to the agreements may default on its obligation to perform or disagree as to the meaning of contractual terms in the agreements and that there may be unfavorable changes in interest rates.
U.S. Government Agencies or Government-Sponsored Enterprises. Securities issued by U.S. Government agencies or government-sponsored enterprises may not be guaranteed by the U.S. Treasury. The Government National Mortgage Association (“GNMA”), a wholly owned U.S. Government corporation, is authorized to guarantee, with the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government, the timely payment of principal and interest on securities issued by institutions approved by GNMA and backed by pools of mortgages insured by the Federal Housing Administration or guaranteed by the Department of Veterans Affairs. Government-related guarantors (i.e., not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government) include the Federal National Mortgage Association (“FNMA” or “Fannie Mae”) and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“FHLMC” or “Freddie Mac”). Pass-through securities issued by FNMA are guaranteed as to timely payment of principal and interest by FNMA but are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government. FHLMC guarantees the timely payment of interest and ultimate collection of principal, but its participation certificates are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government.
New Accounting Policies. In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes—an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (the “Interpretation”). The Interpretation is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. Management is currently evaluating the application of the Interpretation to the Portfolio and will provide additional information in relation to the Interpretation in the Portfolio’s annual financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2006.
3. FEES, EXPENSES, AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Investment Advisory Fee. PIMCO is a majority-owned subsidiary of Allianz Global Investors of America L.P. (“AGI”), and serves as investment adviser (the “Adviser”) to the Trust, pursuant to an investment advisory contract. The Adviser receives a monthly fee at an annual rate based on average daily net assets of the Portfolio. The Advisory Fee is charged at an annual rate of 0.25%.
Administration Fee. PIMCO serves as administrator (the “Administrator”), and provides administrative services to the Trust for which it receives a monthly administrative fee based on average daily net assets of the Portfolio. As the Administrator, PIMCO bears the costs of various third-party services, including audit, custodial, portfolio accounting, legal, transfer agency and printing costs. The Administration Fee is charged at the annual rate of 0.25%.
Distribution and Servicing Fees. Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC (“AGID”) is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of AGI and serves as the distributor of the Trust’s shares. The Trust is permitted to reimburse AGID on a quarterly basis, out of the Administrative Class assets of the Portfolio in the amount of 0.15% on an annual basis of the average daily net assets of that class, for payments made to financial intermediaries that provide services in connection with the distribution of shares or administration of plans or programs that use Portfolio shares as their funding medium. The effective rate paid to AGID was 0.15% during the current fiscal year.
Expenses. The Trust is responsible for the following expenses: (i) salaries and other compensation of any of the Trust’s executive officers and employees who are not officers, directors, stockholders or employees of PIMCO or its subsidiaries or affiliates; (ii) taxes and governmental fees; (iii) brokerage fees and commissions and other portfolio transaction expenses; (iv) the costs of borrowing money, including interest expenses and bank overdraft charges; (v) fees and expenses of the Trustees who are not “interested persons” of PIMCO or the Trust, and any counsel retained exclusively for their benefit; (vi) extraordinary expenses, including costs of litigation and indemnification expenses; (vii) organization expenses and (viii) any expenses allocated or allocable to a specific class of shares, which include service fees payable with respect to the Administrative Class shares and may include certain other expenses as permitted by the Trust’s Multiple Class Plan adopted pursuant to Rule 18f-3 under the Act and subject to review and approval by the Trustees. The ratio of expenses to average net assets per share class, as disclosed in the Financial Highlights, may differ from the annual portfolio operating expenses per share class as disclosed in the Prospectus for the reasons set forth above.
For the current period ended June 30, 2006, each unaffiliated Trustee received an annual retainer of $15,000, plus $2,000 for each Board of Trustees quarterly meeting attended, $500 for each Board of Trustees committee meeting attended and $500 for each special board meeting attended, plus reimbursement of related expenses. In addition, each Committee Chair received an additional annual retainer of $500 and each Audit Committee Chair received an additional annual retainer of $1,500. These expenses are allocated on a pro-rata basis to each Portfolio of the Trust according to its respective net assets. The Trust pays no compensation directly to any Trustee or any other officer who is affiliated with the Administrator, all of whom receive remuneration for their services to the Trust from the Administrator or its affiliates.
4. PURCHASES AND SALES OF SECURITIES
The length of time the Portfolio has held a particular security is not generally a consideration in investment decisions. A change in the securities held by the Portfolio is known as “portfolio turnover”. The Portfolio may engage in frequent and active trading of portfolio securities to achieve its investment objective, particularly during periods of volatile market movements. High portfolio turnover (e.g., over 100%) involves correspondingly greater expenses to the Portfolio, including brokerage commissions or dealer mark-ups and other transaction costs on the sale of securities and reinvestments in other securities. Such sales may also result in realization of taxable capital gains, including short-term capital gains (which are generally taxed at ordinary income tax rates). The trading costs and tax effects associated with portfolio turnover may adversely affect the Portfolio’s performance.
Purchases and sales of securities (excluding short-term investments) for the period ended June 30, 2006 were as follows (amounts in thousands):

$ 23,153 | | $ (58,324) | | $ (35,171) |
9. REGULATORY AND LITIGATION MATTERS
On June 1, 2004, the Attorney General of the State of New Jersey announced that it had dismissed PIMCO from a complaint filed by the New Jersey Attorney General on February 17, 2004, and that it had entered into a settlement agreement (the “New Jersey Settlement”) with Allianz Global Investors of America L.P. (“AGI”) (formerly known as Allianz Dresdner Asset Management of America L.P.), PEA Capital LLC (an entity affiliated with PIMCO through common ownership) (“PEA”) and Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC (“AGID”), in connection with the same matter. In the New Jersey Settlement, AGI, PEA and AGID neither admitted nor denied the allegations or conclusions of law, but did agree to pay New Jersey a civil fine of $15 million and $3 million for investigative costs and further potential enforcement initiatives against unrelated parties. They also undertook to implement certain governance changes. The complaint relating to the New Jersey Settlement alleged, among other things, that AGI, PEA and AGID had failed to disclose that they improperly allowed certain hedge funds to engage in “market timing” in certain funds. The complaint sought injunctive relief, civil monetary penalties, restitution and disgorgement of profits.
Since February 2004, PIMCO, AGI, PEA, AGID, and certain of their affiliates, including the PIMCO Funds, the Allianz Funds (formerly known as PIMCO Funds: Multi-Manager Series), and the Trustees and employees of the PIMCO Funds, have been named as defendants in fifteen lawsuits filed in various jurisdictions. Eleven of those lawsuits concern “market timing,” and they have been transferred to and consolidated for pre-trial proceedings in a multi-district litigation proceeding in the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland; the other four lawsuits concern “revenue sharing” and have been consolidated into a single action in the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut. The lawsuits have been commenced as putative class actions on behalf of investors who purchased, held or redeemed shares of the various series of the PIMCO Funds and the Allianz Funds during specified periods, or as derivative actions on behalf of the PIMCO Funds and Allianz Funds.
The market timing actions in the District of Maryland generally allege that certain hedge funds were allowed to engage in “market timing” in certain of PIMCO Funds and the Allianz Funds and the this alleged activity was not disclosed. Pursuant to tolling agreements entered into with the derivative and class action plaintiffs, PIMCO, the Trustees, and certain employees of PIMCO who were previously named as defendants have all been dropped as defendants in the market timing actions; the plaintiffs continue to assert claims on behalf of the shareholders of the PIMCO Funds or on behalf of the PIMCO Funds themselves against other defendants. By order dated November 3, 2005, the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland granted the PIMCO Funds’ motion to dismiss claims asserted against it in a consolidated amended complaint where the PIMCO Funds were named, in the complaint, as a nominal defendant. The revenue sharing action in the District of Connecticut generally alleges that fund assets were inappropriately used to pay brokers to promote the PIMCO Funds and Allianz Funds, including directing fund brokerage transactions to such brokers, and that such alleged arrangements were not fully disclosed to shareholders. On August 11, 2005 the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut conducted a hearing on defendants’ motion to dismiss the consolidated amended complaint in the revenue sharing action but has not yet ruled on the motion to dismiss. The market timing and revenue sharing lawsuits seek, among other things, unspecified compensatory damages plus interest and, in some cases, punitive damages, the rescission of investment advisory contracts, the return of fees paid under those contracts and restitution.
Under Section 9(a) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“1940 Act”), if the New Jersey Settlement or any of the lawsuits described above were to result in a court injunction against AGI, PEA, AGID and/or their affiliates, PIMCO could, in the absence of exemptive relief granted by the SEC, be barred from serving as an investment adviser, and AGID could be barred from serving as principal underwriter, to any registered investment company, including the Portfolios of the Trust. In connection with an inquiry from the SEC concerning the status of the New Jersey Settlement under Section 9(a), PEA, AGID, AGI and certain of their affiliates (including PIMCO) (together, the “Applicants”) have sought exemptive relief from the SEC under Section 9(c) of the 1940 Act. The SEC has granted the Applicants a temporary exemption from the provisions of Section 9(a) with respect to the New Jersey Settlement until the earlier of (i) September 13, 2006 and (ii) the date on which the SEC takes final action on their application for a permanent order. There is no assurance that the SEC will issue a permanent order.
Two nearly identical class action civil complaints have been filed in August 2005, in the Northern District of Illinois Eastern Division alleging that the plaintiffs each purchased and sold a 10-year Treasury note futures contract and suffered damages from an alleged shortage when PIMCO held both physical and futures positions in 10-year Treasury notes for its client accounts. The two actions have been consolidated into one action, and the two separate complaints have been replaced by a consolidated complaint. PIMCO is a named defendant, and the PIMCO Funds have been added as a defendant, to the consolidated action. PIMCO strongly believes the complaint (and any consolidated complaint filed hereafter) is without merit and intends to vigorously defend itself.
Certain Portfolios of the Trust were recently served in an adversary proceeding brought by the Official Committee of Asbestos Claimants of G-I Holdings, Inc. in G-I Holdings, Inc.’s bankruptcy in the District of New Jersey. PIMCO was previously named in this lawsuit and remains a defendant. The plaintiff seeks to recover for the bankruptcy estate assets that were transferred by the predecessor entity of G-I Holdings, Inc. to a wholly-owned subsidiary in 1994. The subsidiary has since issued notes, of which certain Portfolios of the Trust are alleged to be holders. The complaint alleges that in 2000, more than two hundred noteholders—including certain Portfolios of the Trust—were granted a second priority lien on the assets of the subsidiary in exchange for their consent to a refinancing transaction and the granting of a first priority lien to the lending banks. The plaintiff is seeking invalidation of the lien in favor of the noteholders and/or the value of the lien.
It is possible that these matters and/or other developments resulting from these matters could result in increased fund redemptions or other adverse consequences to the Portfolios. However, PIMCO and AGID believe that these matters are not likely to have a material adverse effect on the Portfolios or on PIMCO’s or AGID’s ability to perform their respective investment advisory or distribution services relating to the Portfolios.

Chairman’s Letter
Dear PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust Shareholder:
It is our pleasure to present to you the semiannual report for the PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust covering the six-month period ended June 30, 2006.
Highlights of the global bond markets during the six-month period included:
| n | | Most fixed-income sectors lost ground during the first half of 2006, as concern about accelerating inflation and central bank tightening pushed interest rates higher worldwide. The benchmark Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index (which includes Treasury, Investment-Grade Corporate, and Residential Mortgage-Backed Securities) returned -0.72% for the first six months of the year. On June 30, the benchmark ten-year Treasury yielded 5.14%, 0.75% higher than at the start of the year. The U.S. yield curve remained flat as shorter-maturity yields rose by a comparable amount. |
| n | | The Federal Reserve tightened four times during the reporting period, bringing the Federal Funds Rate to 5.25%. The increase near the end of the period was the Federal Reserve’s 17th consecutive rate hike since the start of its tightening cycle in 2004. The Federal Reserve was not alone, as central banks in Europe, India, and China tightened credit in unison for the first time since 2000. The Bank of Japan, whose zero-interest-rate policy has flooded global markets with liquidity, looked set to reverse this policy in the coming months. |
In these pages please find a more complete Portfolio review as it relates to financial-market activities, as well as details about total-return investment performance for the six-month reporting period. Thank you for the trust you have placed in us. We will continue to work diligently to meet your investment needs.
Sincerely,

Brent R. Harris

Important Information About the Portfolio
PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust (the “Trust”) is an open-end management investment company currently consisting of nineteen separate investment portfolios, including the Total Return Portfolio (the “Portfolio”). The Portfolio is only available as a funding vehicle under variable life insurance policies or variable annuity contracts issued by insurance companies (“Variable Contracts”). Individuals may not purchase shares of the Portfolio directly. Shares of the Portfolio also may be sold to qualified pension and retirement plans outside of the separate account context.
We believe that bond funds have an important role to play in a well diversified investment portfolio. It is important to note, however, that in an environment where interest rates may trend upward, rising rates would negatively impact the performance of most bond funds, and fixed-income securities held by a fund are likely to decrease in value. The price volatility of fixed-income securities can also increase during periods of rising interest rates resulting in increased losses to a fund. Bond funds and individual bonds with a longer duration (a measure of the expected life of a security) tend to be more sensitive to changes in interest rates, usually making them more volatile than securities or funds with shorter durations. The longer-term performance of most bond funds has benefited from capital gains in part resulting from an extended period of declining interest rates. In the event interest rates increase, these capital gains should not be expected to recur.
The Portfolio may be subject to various risks in addition to those described above. Some of these risks may include, but are not limited to, the following: credit risk, high yield risk, market risk, issuer risk, liquidity risk, derivatives risk, mortgage risk, non-U.S. investment risk, currency risk, leveraging risk and management risk. A complete description of these risks is contained in the Portfolio’s prospectus. The Portfolio may use derivative instruments for hedging purposes or as part of an investment strategy. Use of these instruments may involve certain costs and risks such as liquidity risk, interest rate risk, market risk, credit risk, management risk and the risk that the Portfolio could not close out a position when it would be most advantageous to do so. A Portfolio investing in derivatives could lose more than the principal amount invested in these instruments. Investing in non-U.S. securities may entail risk due to non-U.S. economic and political developments; this risk may be increased when investing in emerging markets.
On the performance summary page in this Semiannual Report, the Total Return Investment Performance table measures performance assuming that all dividend and capital gain distributions were reinvested.
An investment in the Portfolio is not a deposit of a bank and is not guaranteed or insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. It is possible to lose money on investments in the Portfolio.
PIMCO has adopted written proxy voting policies and procedures (“Proxy Policy”) as required by Rule 206(4)-6 under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940.

The following disclosure provides important information regarding the Portfolio’s Expense Example (“Example” or “Expense Example”), which appears in this Semiannual Report. Please refer to this information when reviewing the Expense Example for the Portfolio.
Example
As a shareholder of the Portfolio, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs and (2) ongoing costs, including advisory and administrative fees; distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees (Administrative Class only); and other Portfolio expenses. The Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Portfolio and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Expense Example does not reflect any fees or other expenses imposed by the Variable Contracts. If it did, the expenses reflected in the Expense Examples would be higher. The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period indicated, which is from January 1, 2006 to June 30, 2006.
Actual Expenses
The information in the table under the heading “Actual Performance” provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in these columns, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.60), then multiply the result by the number in the appropriate column for your share class, in the row titled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The information in the table under the heading “Hypothetical Performance (5% return before expenses)” provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Portfolio’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Portfolio’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Portfolio and other portfolios. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other portfolios.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs. Therefore, the information under the heading “Hypothetical Performance (5% return before expenses)” is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different portfolios. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.
The expense ratio may vary period to period because of various factors, such as an increase in expenses not covered by the advisory and administrative fees (such as expenses of the trustees and their counsel or litigation expense).

Past performance is no guarantee of future results. The performance quoted represents past performance. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so the Portfolio shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. The Portfolio’s performance does not reflect the deduction of additional charges and expenses imposed in connection with investing in Variable Contracts, which will reduce returns. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. Performance data current to the most recent month-end is available by calling (800) 927-4648.

Expenses Paid During Period† | | $ | 2.47 | | | | $ | 2.51 |
† Expenses are equal to the Portfolio’s Institutional Class annualized expense ratio of 0.50%, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 181/365 (to reflect the one-half year period). Overall fees and expenses of investing in the Portfolio will be higher because the example does not reflect Variable Contract fees and expenses.
Please refer to page 3 herein for a description of the Portfolio’s benchmark and an explanation of the information presented in the above Expense Example.
Portfolio Insights
» | | The PIMCO Total Return Portfolio seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing under normal circumstances at least 65% of its total assets in a diversified portfolio of Fixed-Income Instruments of varying maturities. |
» | | The Portfolio’s above-benchmark duration detracted from returns as yields rose in the first half of the year. |
» | | An emphasis on short-term maturities detracted from performance as short-term yields rose more than longer-dated yields. The Federal Reserve continued with its tightening policy, sending short-term rates higher while intermediate- and longer-term rates shifted higher. |
» | | An overweight to mortgages contributed to returns as this sector outperformed like-duration Treasuries. |
» | | An underweight to corporate securities detracted from returns as this sector outperformed like-duration Treasuries. |
» | | Strategies designed to benefit when Euroland bonds underperform Treasuries added to returns as European yields increased more than yields in the U.S. |
» | | An allocation to the Yen and the Euro was positive for returns, as both currencies appreciated relative to the dollar. |
» | | Emerging Market bonds added to performance, as strong demand for their attractive yields and improving credit fundamentals caused yield premiums to decline. |
» | | A tactical allocation to municipal bonds was positive for performance as municipal yields rose less than Treasury yields. |

Notes to Financial Statements
1. ORGANIZATION
The Total Return Portfolio (the “Portfolio”) is a series of the PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust (the “Trust”). The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “Act”), as amended, as an open-end investment management company organized as a Delaware business trust on October 3, 1997. The Portfolio offers three classes of shares: Institutional, Administrative and Advisor. Information presented in these financial statements pertains to the Institutional Class of the Portfolio. Certain detailed financial information for the Administrative Class and Advisor Class is provided separately and is available upon request. The Trust is designed to be used as an investment vehicle by Separate Accounts of insurance companies that fund variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies and by qualified pension and retirement plans.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Portfolio in the preparation of its financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Security Valuation. Portfolio securities are valued as of the close of regular trading (normally 4:00 p.m., Eastern Time) on each day that the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) is open. Portfolio securities and other assets for which market quotes are readily available are stated at market value. Market value is generally determined on the basis of last reported sales prices, or if no sales are reported, based on quotes obtained from a quotation reporting system, established market makers, or pricing services. Fixed-income securities and non-exchange traded derivatives are normally valued on the basis of quotes obtained from brokers and dealers or pricing services. Prices obtained from independent pricing services use information provided by market makers or estimates of market values obtained from yield data relating to investments or securities with similar characteristics. Certain fixed-income securities purchased on a delayed-delivery basis are marked to market daily until settlement at the forward settlement date. Short-term investments having a maturity of 60 days or less are generally valued at amortized cost. Exchange traded options, futures and options on futures are valued at the settlement price determined by the relevant exchange.
Investments initially valued in currencies other than the U.S. dollar are converted to the U.S. dollar using exchange rates obtained from pricing services. As a result, the NAV of the Portfolio’s shares may be affected by changes in the value of currencies in relation to the U.S. dollar. The value of securities traded in markets outside the United States or denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar may be affected significantly on a day that the NYSE is closed and an investor is not able to purchase, redeem or exchange shares.
Securities and other assets for which market quotes are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction. The Board of Trustees has adopted methods for valuing securities and other assets in circumstances where market quotes are not readily available, and has delegated to Pacific Investment Management Company LLC (“PIMCO”) the responsibility for applying the valuation methods. In the event that market quotes are not readily available, and the security or asset cannot be valued pursuant to one of the valuation methods, the value of the security or asset will be determined in good faith by the Valuation Committee of the Board of Trustees, generally based upon recommendations provided by PIMCO.
Market quotes are considered not readily available in circumstances where there is an absence of current or reliable market-based data (e.g., trade information, bid/asked information, broker quotes), including where events occur after the close of the relevant market, but prior to the close of regular trading, that materially affect the values of the Portfolio’s securities or assets. In addition, market quotes are considered not readily available when, due to extraordinary circumstances, the exchanges or markets on which the securities trade do not open for trading for the entire day and no other market prices are available. The Board has delegated to PIMCO the responsibility for monitoring significant events that may materially affect the values of the Portfolio’s securities or assets and for determining whether the value of the applicable securities or assets should be re-evaluated in light of such significant events. When the Portfolio uses fair value pricing to determine its NAV, securities will not be priced on the basis of quotations from the primary market in which they are traded, but rather may be priced by another method that the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction believe accurately reflects fair value. The Trust’s policy is intended to result in a calculation of the Portfolio’s NAV that fairly reflects security values as of the time of pricing. However, fair values determined by the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction may not accurately reflect the price that the Portfolio could obtain for a security if it were to dispose of that security as of the time of pricing. Because foreign securities can trade on non-business days, the NAV of the Portfolio may change on days when shareholders will not be able to purchase or redeem shares. The prices used by the Portfolio may differ from the value that would be realized if the securities were sold and the differences could be material to the financial statements.
Securities Transactions and Investment Income. Securities transactions are recorded as of the trade date. Securities purchased or sold on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis may be settled a month or more after the trade date. Realized gains and losses from securities sold are recorded on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Portfolio is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, adjusted for the accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis. Paydown gains and losses on mortgage-related or asset-backed securities are recorded as components of interest income in the Statement of Operations.
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends from net investment income, if any, are declared on each day the Portfolio is open for business and are distributed to shareholders monthly. Net realized capital gains earned by the Portfolio, if any, will be distributed no less frequently than once each year. Most shareholders choose to reinvest their dividends and capital gain distribution in additional shares of the Portfolio.
Income dividends and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP. Differences between tax regulations and GAAP may change the fiscal year when income and capital items are recognized for tax and GAAP purposes. Examples of events that give rise to timing differences include wash sales, straddles, net operating losses and capital loss carryforwards. Further, the character of investment income and capital gains may be different for certain transactions under the two methods of accounting. Examples of characterization differences include the treatment of mortgage paydowns, swaps, foreign currency transactions and contingent debt instruments. As a result, income dividends and capital gain distributions declared during a fiscal period may differ significantly from the net investment income and realized capital gain reported in the Portfolio’s annual financial statements presented under GAAP.
Distributions classified as a tax basis return of capital, if any, are reflected in the accompanying Statements of Changes in Net Assets and have been reclassified to

| | June 30, 2006 (Unaudited) |
paid in capital. In addition, other amounts have been reclassified between undistributed net investment income, accumulated undistributed net realized gains or losses and/or paid in capital to more appropriately conform financial accounting to tax characterizations of dividend distributions.
Multiclass Operations. Each class offered by the Portfolio has equal rights as to assets and voting privileges (except that shareholders of a class have exclusive voting rights regarding any matter relating solely to that class of shares). Income and non-class specific expenses of the Portfolio are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative value of settled shares. Realized and unrealized capital gains and losses of the Portfolio are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative net assets of each class. Class specific expenses, where applicable, currently include administrative, distribution and servicing fees.
Delayed-Delivery Transactions. The Portfolio may purchase or sell securities on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis. These transactions involve a commitment by the Portfolio to purchase or sell securities for a predetermined price or yield, with payment and delivery taking place beyond the customary settlement period. When delayed-delivery purchases are outstanding, the Portfolio will designate liquid assets in an amount sufficient to meet the purchase price. When purchasing a security on a delayed-delivery basis, the Portfolio assumes the rights and risks of ownership of the security, including the risk of price and yield fluctuations, and takes such fluctuations into account when determining its net asset value. The Portfolio may dispose of or renegotiate a delayed-delivery transaction after it is entered into, and may sell when-issued securities before they are delivered, which may result in a capital gain or loss. When the Portfolio has sold a security on a delayed-delivery basis, the Portfolio does not participate in future gains and losses with respect to the security.
Federal Income Taxes. The Portfolio intends to qualify as a regulated investment company under sub-chapter M of the Internal Revenue Code and distribute all of its taxable income and net realized gains, if applicable, to shareholders. Accordingly, no provision for Federal income taxes has been made.
Foreign Currency. The accounting records of the Portfolio are maintained in U.S. dollar. The market values of foreign securities, currency holdings and other assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollar based on the current exchange rates each business day. Fluctuations in the value of currency holdings and other assets and liabilities resulting from changes in exchange rates are recorded as unrealized foreign currency gains or losses. Realized gains or losses and unrealized appreciation or depreciation on investment securities and income and expenses are translated on the respective dates of such transactions. The effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on investments in securities are not segregated in the Statement of Operations from the effects of changes in market prices of those securities, but are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss on investment securities.

Forward Currency Transactions. The Portfolio may enter into forward currency contracts in connection with settling planned purchases or sales of securities, to hedge the currency exposure associated with some or all of the Portfolio’s securities or as a part of an investment strategy. A forward currency contract is an agreement between two parties to buy and sell a currency at a set price on a future date. The market value of a forward currency contract fluctuates with changes in forward currency exchange rates. Forward currency contracts are marked to market daily and the change in value is recorded by the Portfolio as an unrealized gain or loss. Realized gains or losses equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed are recorded upon delivery or receipt of the currency or, if a forward currency contract is offset by entering into another forward currency contract with the same broker, upon settlement of the net gain or loss. These contracts may involve market risk in excess of the unrealized gain or loss reflected in the Portfolio’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities. In addition, the Portfolio could be exposed to risk if the counterparties are unable to meet the terms of the contracts or if the value of the currency changes unfavorably to the U.S. dollar.
Futures Contracts. The Portfolio is authorized to enter into futures contracts. The Portfolio may use futures contracts to manage its exposure to the securities markets or to movements in interest rates and currency values. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are the imperfect correlation between the change in market value of the securities held by the Portfolio and the prices of futures contracts, the possibility of an illiquid market, and the inability of the counterparty to meet the terms of the contract. Futures contracts are valued based upon their quoted daily settlement prices. Upon entering into a futures contract, the Portfolio is required to deposit with its custodian, in a segregated account in the name of the futures broker, an amount of cash or U.S. Government and Agency Obligations in accordance with the initial margin requirements of the broker or exchange. Futures contracts are marked to market daily and an appropriate payable or receivable for the change in value (“variation margin”) is recorded by the Portfolio. Gains or losses are recognized but not considered realized until the contracts expire or are closed. Futures contracts involve, to varying degrees, risk of loss in excess of the variation margin disclosed in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
Guarantees and Indemnifications. Under the Trust’s organizational documents, each Trustee, officer, employee or other agent of the Trust (including the Trust’s investment manager) is indemnified against certain liabilities that may arise out of performance of their duties to the Portfolio. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Portfolio enters into contracts that contain a variety of indemnification clauses. The Portfolio’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Portfolio that have not yet occurred. However, the Portfolio has not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts, and believes the risk of loss to be remote.
Inflation-Indexed Bonds. The Portfolio may invest in inflation-indexed bonds. Inflation-indexed bonds are fixed-income securities whose principal value is periodically adjusted to the rate of inflation. The interest rate on these bonds is generally fixed at issuance at a rate lower than typical bonds. Over the life of an inflation-indexed bond, however, interest will be paid based on a principal value, which is adjusted for inflation. Any increase in the principal amount of an inflation-indexed bond will be included as interest income in the Statement of Operations, even though investors do not receive their principal until maturity.
Loan Participant and Assignments. The Portfolio may invest in direct debt instruments which are interests in amounts owned by corporate, governmental, or other borrowers to lenders or lending syndicates. The Portfolio’s investments in loans may be in the form of participations in loans or assignments of all or a portion of loans from third parties. A loan is often administered by a bank or other
| | | | | | |
| | Semiannual Report | | June 30, 2006 | | 17 |
Notes to Financial Statements (Cont.)
financial institution (the “lender”) that acts as agent for all holders. Then agent administers the terms of the loan, as specified in the loan agreement. When investing in a loan participation, the Portfolio has the right to receive payments of principal, interest and any fees to which it is entitled only from the lender selling the loan agreement and only upon receipt by the lender of payments from the borrower. The Portfolio generally has no right to enforce compliance with the terms of the loan agreement with the borrower. As a result, the Portfolio may be subject to the credit of both the borrower and the lender that is selling the loan agreement. When the Portfolio purchases assignments from lenders it acquires direct rights against the borrower on the loan. At the end of the period, the Portfolio had no unfunded loan commitments.
Options Contracts. The Portfolio may write call and put options on futures, swaps, securities or currencies it owns or in which it may invest. Writing put options tends to increase the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. Writing call options tends to decrease the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. When the Portfolio writes a call or put option, an amount equal to the premium received is recorded as a liability and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the option written. These liabilities are reflected as written options outstanding in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Certain options may be written with premiums to determined on a future date. The premiums for these options are based upon implied volatility parameters at specified terms. Premiums received from writing options which expire are treated as realized gains. Premiums received from writing options which are exercised or closed are added to the proceeds or offset against amounts paid on the underlying future, swap, security or currency transaction to determine the realized gain or loss. The Portfolio as a writer of an option has no control over whether the underlying future, swap, security or currency may be sold (call) or purchased (put) and as a result bears the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the future, swap, security or currency underlying the written option. There is the risk the Portfolio may not be able to enter into a closing transaction because of an illiquid market.
The Portfolio may also purchase put and call options. Purchasing call options tends to increase the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. Purchasing put options tends to decrease the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. The Portfolio pays a premium which is included in the Portfolio’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an investment and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the option. Premiums paid for purchasing options which expire are treated as realized losses. Certain options may be purchased with premiums to be determined on a future date. The premiums for these options are based upon implied volatility parameters at specified terms. The risk associated with purchasing put and call options is limited to the premium paid. Premiums paid for purchasing options which are exercised or closed are added to the amounts paid or offset against the proceeds on the underlying future, swap, security or currency transaction to determine the realized gain or loss.
Repurchase Agreements. The Portfolio may engage in repurchase transactions. Under the terms of a typical repurchase agreement, the Portfolio takes possession of an underlying debt obligation subject to an obligation of the seller to repurchase, and the Portfolio to resell, the obligation at an agreed-upon price and time. The underlying securities for all repurchase agreements are held in safekeeping at the Portfolio’s custodian or designated subcustodians under triparty repurchase agreements. The market value of the collateral must be equal to or exceed at all times the total amount of the repurchase obligations, including interest. Securities purchased under repurchase agreements are reflected as an asset in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Generally, in the event of counterparty default, the Portfolio has the right to use the collateral to offset losses incurred. If the counterparty should default, the Portfolio will seek to sell the securities which it holds as collateral. This could involve procedural costs or delays in addition to a loss on the securities if their value should fall below their repurchase price.
Mortgage-Related and Other Asset-Backed Securities. The Portfolio may invest in mortgage-related or other asset-backed securities. These securities include mortgage pass-through securities, collateralized mortgage obligations (“CMOs”), commercial mortgage-backed securities, mortgage dollar rolls, CMO residuals, stripped mortgage-backed securities (“SMBSs”) and other securities that directly or indirectly represent a participation in, or are secured by and payable from, mortgage loans on real property. The value of some mortgage- or asset-backed securities may be particularly sensitive to changes in prevailing interest rates. Early repayment of principal on some mortgage-related securities may expose a Portfolio to a lower rate of return upon reinvestment of principal. The value of these securities may fluctuate in response to the market’s perception of the creditworthiness of the issuers. Additionally, although mortgages and mortgage-related securities are generally supported by some form of government or private guarantee and/or insurance, there is no assurance that private guarantors or insurers will meet their obligations.
One type of SMBS has one class receiving all of the interest from the mortgage assets (the interest-only, or “IO” class), while the other class will receive all of the principal (the principal-only, or “PO” class). Payments received for IOs are included in interest income in the Statement of Operations. Because principal will not be received at the maturity of an IO, adjustments are made to the book value of the security on a daily basis until maturity. These adjustments are included in interest income in the Statement of Operations. Payments received for POs are treated as reductions to the cost and par value of the securities.
Swap Agreements. The Portfolio may engage in swap transactions, including, but not limited to, swap agreements on interest rate and credit default to manage its exposure to interest rates and credit risk. In connection with these agreements, securities may be identified as collateral in accordance with the terms of the respective swap agreements.
Interest rate swap agreements involve the exchange by the Portfolio with another party of their respective commitments to pay or receive interest, e.g., an exchange of floating rate payments for fixed rate payments with respect to the notional amount of principal.
Credit default swap agreements involve one party making a stream of payments to another party in exchange for the right to receive a specified return in the event of a default by a third party, typically corporate issues or sovereign issues of an emerging country, on its obligation. The Portfolio may use credit default swaps to provide a measure of protection against defaults of the issuers (i.e., to reduce risk where the Portfolio owns or has exposure to the sovereign issuer) or to take an active long or short position with respect to the likelihood of a particular issuer’s default. As a seller of protection, the Portfolio generally receives an upfront payment or a fixed rate of income throughout the term of the swap provided that there is no credit event. If the Portfolio is a seller of protection and a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement, the Portfolio will pay to the buyer of the protection an amount up to the notional value of the swap and in certain instances take delivery of the security. As the seller, a Portfolio would effectively add leverage to its portfolio because, in addition to its total net assets, the Portfolio would be subject to investment exposure on the notional amount of the swap. As a buyer of protection, a Portfolio generally receives an amount up to the notional value of the swap if a credit event occurs. The treatment of credit default swaps and other swap agreements that provide for contingent, non-periodic, bullet-type payments as “notional principal contracts” for federal income tax purposes is uncertain. Were the Internal Revenue Service to take the position that a credit default swap or other bullet-type swap is not a “notional principal contract” for federal income tax purposes, payments received by the Portfolio from such investments might be subject to income taxes.
Swaps are marked to market daily based upon quotations from market makers and the change in value, if any, is recorded as unrealized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Payments received or made at the beginning of the measurement

period are reflected as such in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. These upfront payments are recorded as realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations upon termination or maturity of the swap. A liquidation payment received or made at the termination of the swap is recorded as realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Net periodic payments received or paid by the Portfolio are included as part of realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Entering into these agreements involves, to varying degrees, elements of credit, market and documentation risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Such risks involve the possibility that there will be no liquid market for these agreements, that the counterparty to the agreements may default on its obligation to perform or disagree as to the meaning of contractual terms in the agreements and that there may be unfavorable changes in interest rates.
U.S. Government Agencies or Government-Sponsored Enterprises. Securities issued by U.S. Government agencies or government-sponsored enterprises may not be guaranteed by the U.S. Treasury. The Government National Mortgage Association (“GNMA”), a wholly owned U.S. Government corporation, is authorized to guarantee, with the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government, the timely payment of principal and interest on securities issued by institutions approved by GNMA and backed by pools of mortgages insured by the Federal Housing Administration or guaranteed by the Department of Veterans Affairs. Government-related guarantors (i.e., not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government) include the Federal National Mortgage Association (“FNMA” or “Fannie Mae”) and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“FHLMC” or “Freddie Mac”). Pass-through securities issued by FNMA are guaranteed as to timely payment of principal and interest by FNMA but are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government. FHLMC guarantees the timely payment of interest and ultimate collection of principal, but its participation certificates are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government.
New Accounting Policies. In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes—an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (the “Interpretation”). The Interpretation is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. Management is currently evaluating the application of the Interpretation to the Portfolio and will provide additional information in relation to the Interpretation in the Portfolio’s annual financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2006.
3. FEES, EXPENSES, AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Investment Advisory Fee. PIMCO is a majority-owned subsidiary of Allianz Global Investors of America L.P. (“AGI”), and serves as investment adviser (the “Adviser”) to the Trust, pursuant to an investment advisory contract. The Adviser receives a monthly fee at an annual rate based on average daily net assets of the Portfolio. The Advisory Fee is charged at an annual rate of 0.25%.
Administration Fee. PIMCO serves as administrator (the “Administrator”), and provides administrative services to the Trust for which it receives a monthly administrative fee based on average daily net assets of the Portfolio. As the Administrator, PIMCO bears the costs of various third-party services, including audit, custodial, portfolio accounting, legal, transfer agency and printing costs. The Administration Fee is charged at the annual rate of 0.25%.
Distribution and Servicing Fees. Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC (“AGID”) is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of AGI and serves as the distributor of the Trust’s shares. The Trust is permitted to reimburse AGID on a quarterly basis, out of the Administrative Class assets of the Portfolio in the amount of 0.15% on an annual basis of the average daily net assets of that class, for payments made to financial intermediaries that provide services in connection with the distribution of shares or administration of plans or programs that use Portfolio shares as their funding medium. The effective rate paid to AGID was 0.15% during the current fiscal year.
Expenses. The Trust is responsible for the following expenses: (i) salaries and other compensation of any of the Trust’s executive officers and employees who are not officers, directors, stockholders or employees of PIMCO or its subsidiaries or affiliates; (ii) taxes and governmental fees; (iii) brokerage fees and commissions and other portfolio transaction expenses; (iv) the costs of borrowing money, including interest expenses and bank overdraft charges; (v) fees and expenses of the Trustees who are not “interested persons” of PIMCO or the Trust, and any counsel retained exclusively for their benefit; (vi) extraordinary expenses, including costs of litigation and indemnification expenses; (vii) organization expenses and (viii) any expenses allocated or allocable to a specific class of shares, which include service fees payable with respect to the Administrative Class shares and may include certain other expenses as permitted by the Trust’s Multiple Class Plan adopted pursuant to Rule 18f-3 under the Act and subject to review and approval by the Trustees. The ratio of expenses to average net assets per share class, as disclosed in the Financial Highlights, may differ from the annual portfolio operating expenses per share class as disclosed in the Prospectus for the reasons set forth above.
For the current period ended June 30, 2006, each unaffiliated Trustee received an annual retainer of $15,000, plus $2,000 for each Board of Trustees quarterly meeting attended, $500 for each Board of Trustees committee meeting attended and $500 for each special board meeting attended, plus reimbursement of related expenses. In addition, each Committee Chair received an additional annual retainer of $500 and each Audit Committee Chair received an additional annual retainer of $1,500. These expenses are allocated on a pro-rata basis to each Portfolio of the Trust according to its respective net assets. The Trust pays no compensation directly to any Trustee or any other officer who is affiliated with the Administrator, all of whom receive remuneration for their services to the Trust from the Administrator or its affiliates.
4. PURCHASES AND SALES OF SECURITIES
The length of time the Portfolio has held a particular security is not generally a consideration in investment decisions. A change in the securities held by the Portfolio is known as “portfolio turnover”. The Portfolio may engage in frequent and active trading of portfolio securities to achieve its investment objective, particularly during periods of volatile market movements. High portfolio turnover (e.g., over 100%) involves correspondingly greater expenses to the Portfolio, including brokerage commissions or dealer mark-ups and other transaction costs on the sale of securities and reinvestments in other securities. Such sales may also result in realization of taxable capital gains, including short-term capital gains (which are generally taxed at ordinary income tax rates). The trading costs and tax effects associated with portfolio turnover may adversely affect the Portfolio’s performance.
Purchases and sales of securities (excluding short-term investments) for the period ended June 30, 2006 were as follows (amounts in thousands):

9. REGULATORY AND LITIGATION MATTERS
On June 1, 2004, the Attorney General of the State of New Jersey announced that it had dismissed PIMCO from a complaint filed by the New Jersey Attorney General on February 17, 2004, and that it had entered into a settlement agreement (the “New Jersey Settlement”) with Allianz Global Investors of America L.P. (“AGI”) (formerly known as Allianz Dresdner Asset Management of America L.P.), PEA Capital LLC (an entity affiliated with PIMCO through common ownership) (“PEA”) and Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC (“AGID”), in connection with the same matter. In the New Jersey Settlement, AGI, PEA and AGID neither admitted nor denied the allegations or conclusions of law, but did agree to pay New Jersey a civil fine of $15 million and $3 million for investigative costs and further potential enforcement initiatives against unrelated parties. They also undertook to implement certain governance changes. The complaint relating to the New Jersey Settlement alleged, among other things, that AGI, PEA and AGID had failed to disclose that they improperly allowed certain hedge funds to engage in “market timing” in certain funds. The complaint sought injunctive relief, civil monetary penalties, restitution and disgorgement of profits.
Since February 2004, PIMCO, AGI, PEA, AGID, and certain of their affiliates, including the PIMCO Funds, the Allianz Funds (formerly known as PIMCO Funds: Multi-Manager Series), and the Trustees and employees of the PIMCO Funds, have been named as defendants in fifteen lawsuits filed in various jurisdictions. Eleven of those lawsuits concern “market timing,” and they have been transferred to and consolidated for pre-trial proceedings in a multi-district litigation proceeding in the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland; the other four lawsuits concern “revenue sharing” and have been consolidated into a single action in the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut. The lawsuits have been commenced as putative class actions on behalf of investors who purchased, held or redeemed shares of the various series of the PIMCO Funds and the Allianz Funds during specified periods, or as derivative actions on behalf of the PIMCO Funds and Allianz Funds.
The market timing actions in the District of Maryland generally allege that certain hedge funds were allowed to engage in “market timing” in certain of PIMCO Funds and the Allianz Funds and the this alleged activity was not disclosed. Pursuant to tolling agreements entered into with the derivative and class action plaintiffs, PIMCO, the Trustees, and certain employees of PIMCO who were previously named as defendants have all been dropped as defendants in the market timing actions; the plaintiffs continue to assert claims on behalf of the shareholders of the PIMCO Funds or on behalf of the PIMCO Funds themselves against other defendants. By order dated November 3, 2005, the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland granted the PIMCO Funds’ motion to dismiss claims asserted against it in a consolidated amended complaint where the PIMCO Funds were named, in the complaint, as a nominal defendant. The revenue sharing action in the District of Connecticut generally alleges that fund assets were inappropriately used to pay brokers to promote the PIMCO Funds and Allianz Funds, including directing fund brokerage transactions to such brokers, and that such alleged arrangements were not fully disclosed to shareholders. On August 11, 2005 the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut conducted a hearing on defendants’ motion to dismiss the consolidated amended complaint in the revenue sharing action but has not yet ruled on the motion to dismiss. The market timing and revenue sharing lawsuits seek, among other things, unspecified compensatory damages plus interest and, in some cases, punitive damages, the rescission of investment advisory contracts, the return of fees paid under those contracts and restitution.
Under Section 9(a) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“1940 Act”), if the New Jersey Settlement or any of the lawsuits described above were to result in a court injunction against AGI, PEA, AGID and/or their affiliates, PIMCO could, in the absence of exemptive relief granted by the SEC, be barred from serving as an investment adviser, and AGID could be barred from serving as principal underwriter, to any registered investment company, including the Portfolios of the Trust. In connection with an inquiry from the SEC concerning the status of the New Jersey Settlement under Section 9(a), PEA, AGID, AGI and certain of their affiliates (including PIMCO) (together, the “Applicants”) have sought exemptive relief from the SEC under Section 9(c) of the 1940 Act. The SEC has granted the Applicants a temporary exemption from the provisions of Section 9(a) with respect to the New Jersey Settlement until the earlier of (i) September 13, 2006 and (ii) the date on which the SEC takes final action on their application for a permanent order. There is no assurance that the SEC will issue a permanent order.
Two nearly identical class action civil complaints have been filed in August 2005, in the Northern District of Illinois Eastern Division alleging that the plaintiffs each purchased and sold a 10-year Treasury note futures contract and suffered damages from an alleged shortage when PIMCO held both physical and futures positions in 10-year Treasury notes for its client accounts. The two actions have been consolidated into one action, and the two separate complaints have been replaced by a consolidated complaint. PIMCO is a named defendant, and the PIMCO Funds have been added as a defendant, to the consolidated action. PIMCO strongly believes the complaint (and any consolidated complaint filed hereafter) is without merit and intends to vigorously defend itself.
Certain Portfolios of the Trust were recently served in an adversary proceeding brought by the Official Committee of Asbestos Claimants of G-I Holdings, Inc. in G-I Holdings, Inc.’s bankruptcy in the District of New Jersey. PIMCO was previously named in this lawsuit and remains a defendant. The plaintiff seeks to recover for the bankruptcy estate assets that were transferred by the predecessor entity of G-I Holdings, Inc. to a wholly-owned subsidiary in 1994. The subsidiary has since issued notes, of which certain Portfolios of the Trust are alleged to be holders. The complaint alleges that in 2000, more than two hundred noteholders—including certain Portfolios of the Trust—were granted a second priority lien on the assets of the subsidiary in exchange for their consent to a refinancing transaction and the granting of a first priority lien to the lending banks. The plaintiff is seeking invalidation of the lien in favor of the noteholders and/or the value of the lien.
It is possible that these matters and/or other developments resulting from these matters could result in increased fund redemptions or other adverse consequences to the Portfolios. However, PIMCO and AGID believe that these matters are not likely to have a material adverse effect on the Portfolios or on PIMCO’s or AGID’s ability to perform their respective investment advisory or distribution services relating to the Portfolios.

Chairman’s Letter
Dear PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust Shareholder:
It is our pleasure to present to you the semiannual report for the PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust covering the six-month period ended June 30, 2006.
Highlights of the global bond markets during the six-month period included:
| n | | Most fixed-income sectors lost ground during the first half of 2006, as concern about accelerating inflation and central bank tightening pushed interest rates higher worldwide. The benchmark Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index (which includes Treasury, Investment-Grade Corporate, and Residential Mortgage-Backed Securities) returned -0.72% for the first six months of the year. On June 30, the benchmark ten-year Treasury yielded 5.14%, 0.75% higher than at the start of the year. The U.S. yield curve remained flat as shorter-maturity yields rose by a comparable amount. |
| n | | The Federal Reserve tightened four times during the reporting period, bringing the Federal Funds Rate to 5.25%. The increase near the end of the period was the Federal Reserve’s 17th consecutive rate hike since the start of its tightening cycle in 2004. The Federal Reserve was not alone, as central banks in Europe, India, and China tightened credit in unison for the first time since 2000. The Bank of Japan, whose zero-interest-rate policy has flooded global markets with liquidity, looked set to reverse this policy in the coming months. |
In these pages please find a more complete Portfolio review as it relates to financial-market activities, as well as details about total-return investment performance for the six-month reporting period. Thank you for the trust you have placed in us. We will continue to work diligently to meet your investment needs.
Sincerely,

Brent R. Harris
Chairman, PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust

Important Information About the Portfolio
PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust (the “Trust”) is an open-end management investment company currently consisting of nineteen separate investment portfolios, including the Total Return Portfolio (the “Portfolio”). The Portfolio is only available as a funding vehicle under variable life insurance policies or variable annuity contracts issued by insurance companies (“Variable Contracts”). Individuals may not purchase shares of the Portfolio directly. Shares of the Portfolio also may be sold to qualified pension and retirement plans outside of the separate account context.
We believe that bond funds have an important role to play in a well diversified investment portfolio. It is important to note, however, that in an environment where interest rates may trend upward, rising rates would negatively impact the performance of most bond funds, and fixed-income securities held by a fund are likely to decrease in value. The price volatility of fixed-income securities can also increase during periods of rising interest rates resulting in increased losses to a fund. Bond funds and individual bonds with a longer duration (a measure of the expected life of a security) tend to be more sensitive to changes in interest rates, usually making them more volatile than securities or funds with shorter durations. The longer-term performance of most bond funds has benefited from capital gains in part resulting from an extended period of declining interest rates. In the event interest rates increase, these capital gains should not be expected to recur.
The Portfolio may be subject to various risks in addition to those described above. Some of these risks may include, but are not limited to, the following: credit risk, high yield risk, market risk, issuer risk, liquidity risk, derivatives risk, mortgage risk, non-U.S. investment risk, currency risk, leveraging risk and management risk. A complete description of these risks is contained in the Portfolio’s prospectus. The Portfolio may use derivative instruments for hedging purposes or as part of an investment strategy. Use of these instruments may involve certain costs and risks such as liquidity risk, interest rate risk, market risk, credit risk, management risk and the risk that the Portfolio could not close out a position when it would be most advantageous to do so. A Portfolio investing in derivatives could lose more than the principal amount invested in these instruments. Investing in non-U.S. securities may entail risk due to non-U.S. economic and political developments; this risk may be increased when investing in emerging markets.
On the performance summary page in this Semiannual Report, the Total Return Investment Performance table measures performance assuming that all dividend and capital gain distributions were reinvested.
An investment in the Portfolio is not a deposit of a bank and is not guaranteed or insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. It is possible to lose money on investments in the Portfolio.
PIMCO has adopted written proxy voting policies and procedures (“Proxy Policy”) as required by Rule 206(4)-6 under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940. The Proxy Policy has been adopted by the Trust as the policies and procedures that PIMCO will use when voting proxies on behalf of the Portfolio. Copies of the written Proxy Policy and the factors that PIMCO may consider in determining how to vote proxies for the Portfolio, and information about how the Portfolio voted proxies relating to portfolio securities held during the most recent twelve-month period ended June 30, are available without charge, upon request, by calling the Trust at 1-866-746-2606 and on the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) website at http://www.sec.gov.
The Portfolio files its complete schedule of portfolio holdings with the SEC for the first and third quarters of each fiscal year on Form N-Q. A copy of the Trust’s Form N-Q is available on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov and may be reviewed and copied at the SEC’s Public Reference Room in Washington D.C. Information on the operation of the Public Reference Room may be obtained by calling 1-800-SEC-0330.
PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust is distributed by Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC, 2187 Atlantic Street, Stamford, CT 06902.

The following disclosure provides important information regarding the Portfolio’s Expense Example (“Example” or “Expense Example”), which appears in this Semiannual Report. Please refer to this information when reviewing the Expense Example for the Portfolio.
Example
As a shareholder of the Portfolio, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs and (2) ongoing costs, including advisory and administrative fees; distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees (Administrative Class only); and other Portfolio expenses. The Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Portfolio and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Expense Example does not reflect any fees or other expenses imposed by the Variable Contracts. If it did, the expenses reflected in the Expense Examples would be higher. The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period indicated, which is from January 1, 2006 to June 30, 2006.
Actual Expenses
The information in the table under the heading “Actual Performance” provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in these columns, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.60), then multiply the result by the number in the appropriate column for your share class, in the row titled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The information in the table under the heading “Hypothetical Performance (5% return before expenses)” provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Portfolio’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Portfolio’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Portfolio and other portfolios. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other portfolios.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs. Therefore, the information under the heading “Hypothetical Performance (5% return before expenses)” is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different portfolios. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.
The expense ratio may vary period to period because of various factors, such as an increase in expenses not covered by the advisory and administrative fees (such as expenses of the trustees and their counsel or litigation expense).
Portfolio Benchmark
Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index represents securities that are taxable, and dollar denominated. The index covers the U.S. investment grade fixed rate bond market, with index components for government and corporate securities, mortgage pass-through securities, and asset-backed securities. These major sectors are subdivided into more specific indices that are calculated and reported on a regular basis. It is not possible to invest directly in this index.

Past performance is no guarantee of future results. The performance quoted represents past performance. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that Fund shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. The Portfolio’s performance does not reflect the deduction of additional charges and expenses imposed in connection with investing in Variable Contracts, which will reduce returns. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. Performance data current to the most recent month-end is available by calling (800) 927-4648.

† Expenses are equal to the Portfolio’s Advisor Class annualized expense ratio of 0.75%, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 123/365 (to reflect the period since the Portfolio’s Advisor Class shares commenced operations on 02/28/06). Overall fees and expenses of investing in the Portfolio will be higher because the example does not reflect Variable Contract fees and expenses.
Please refer to page 3 herein for a description of the Portfolio’s benchmark and an explanation of the information presented in the above Expense Example.
Portfolio Insights
» | | The PIMCO Total Return Portfolio seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing under normal circumstances at least 65% of its total assets in a diversified portfolio of Fixed-Income Instruments of varying maturities. |
» | | The Portfolio’s above-benchmark duration detracted from returns as yields rose in the first half of the year. |
» | | An emphasis on short-term maturities detracted from performance as short-term yields rose more than longer-dated yields. The Federal Reserve continued with its tightening policy, sending short-term rates higher while intermediate- and longer-term rates shifted higher. |
» | | An overweight to mortgages contributed to returns as this sector outperformed like-duration Treasuries. |
» | | An underweight to corporate securities detracted from returns as this sector outperformed like-duration Treasuries. |
» | | Strategies designed to benefit when Euroland bonds underperform Treasuries added to returns as European yields increased more than yields in the U.S. |
» | | An allocation to the Yen and the Euro was positive for returns, as both currencies appreciated relative to the dollar. |
» | | Emerging Market bonds added to performance, as strong demand for their attractive yields and improving credit fundamentals caused yield premiums to decline. |
» | | A tactical allocation to municipal bonds was positive for performance as municipal yields rose less than Treasury yields. |

Notes to Financial Statements
1. ORGANIZATION
The Total Return Portfolio (the “Portfolio”) is a series of the PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust (the “Trust”). The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “Act”), as amended, as an open-end investment management company organized as a Delaware business trust on October 3, 1997. The Portfolio offers three classes of shares: Institutional, Administrative and Advisor. Information presented in these financial statements pertains to the Advisor Class of the Portfolio. Certain detailed financial information for the Institutional Class and Administrative Class is provided separately and is available upon request. The Trust is designed to be used as an investment vehicle by Separate Accounts of insurance companies that fund variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies and by qualified pension and retirement plans.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Portfolio in the preparation of its financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Security Valuation. Portfolio securities are valued as of the close of regular trading (normally 4:00 p.m., Eastern Time) on each day that the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) is open. Portfolio securities and other assets for which market quotes are readily available are stated at market value. Market value is generally determined on the basis of last reported sales prices, or if no sales are reported, based on quotes obtained from a quotation reporting system, established market makers, or pricing services. Fixed-income securities and non-exchange traded derivatives are normally valued on the basis of quotes obtained from brokers and dealers or pricing services. Prices obtained from independent pricing services use information provided by market makers or estimates of market values obtained from yield data relating to investments or securities with similar characteristics. Certain fixed-income securities purchased on a delayed-delivery basis are marked to market daily until settlement at the forward settlement date. Short-term investments having a maturity of 60 days or less are generally valued at amortized cost. Exchange traded options, futures and options on futures are valued at the settlement price determined by the relevant exchange.
Investments initially valued in currencies other than the U.S. dollar are converted to the U.S. dollar using exchange rates obtained from pricing services. As a result, the NAV of the Portfolio’s shares may be affected by changes in the value of currencies in relation to the U.S. dollar. The value of securities traded in markets outside the United States or denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar may be affected significantly on a day that the NYSE is closed and an investor is not able to purchase, redeem or exchange shares.
Securities and other assets for which market quotes are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction. The Board of Trustees has adopted methods for valuing securities and other assets in circumstances where market quotes are not readily available, and has delegated to Pacific Investment Management Company LLC (“PIMCO”) the responsibility for applying the valuation methods. In the event that market quotes are not readily available, and the security or asset cannot be valued pursuant to one of the valuation methods, the value of the security or asset will be determined in good faith by the Valuation Committee of the Board of Trustees, generally based upon recommendations provided by PIMCO.
Market quotes are considered not readily available in circumstances where there is an absence of current or reliable market-based data (e.g., trade information, bid/asked information, broker quotes), including where events occur after the close of the relevant market, but prior to the close of regular trading, that materially affect the values of the Portfolio’s securities or assets. In addition, market quotes are considered not readily available when, due to extraordinary circumstances, the exchanges or markets on which the securities trade do not open for trading for the entire day and no other market prices are available. The Board has delegated to PIMCO the responsibility for monitoring significant events that may materially affect the values of the Portfolio’s securities or assets and for determining whether the value of the applicable securities or assets should be re-evaluated in light of such significant events. When the Portfolio uses fair value pricing to determine its NAV, securities will not be priced on the basis of quotations from the primary market in which they are traded, but rather may be priced by another method that the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction believe accurately reflects fair value. The Trust’s policy is intended to result in a calculation of the Portfolio’s NAV that fairly reflects security values as of the time of pricing. However, fair values determined by the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction may not accurately reflect the price that the Portfolio could obtain for a security if it were to dispose of that security as of the time of pricing. Because foreign securities can trade on non-business days, the NAV of the Portfolio may change on days when shareholders will not be able to purchase or redeem shares. The prices used by the Portfolio may differ from the value that would be realized if the securities were sold and the differences could be material to the financial statements.
Securities Transactions and Investment Income. Securities transactions are recorded as of the trade date. Securities purchased or sold on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis may be settled a month or more after the trade date. Realized gains and losses from securities sold are recorded on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Portfolio is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, adjusted for the accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis. Paydown gains and losses on mortgage-related or asset-backed securities are recorded as components of interest income in the Statement of Operations.
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends from net investment income, if any, are declared on each day the Portfolio is open for business and are distributed to shareholders monthly. Net realized capital gains earned by the Portfolio, if any, will be distributed no less frequently than once each year. Most shareholders choose to reinvest their dividends and capital gain distribution in additional shares of the Portfolio.
Income dividends and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP. Differences between tax regulations and GAAP may change the fiscal year when income and capital items are recognized for tax and GAAP purposes. Examples of events that give rise to timing differences include wash sales, straddles, net operating losses and capital loss carryforwards. Further, the character of investment income and capital gains may be different for certain transactions under the two methods of accounting. Examples of characterization differences include the treatment of mortgage paydowns, swaps, foreign currency transactions and contingent debt instruments. As a result, income dividends and capital gain distributions declared during a fiscal period may differ significantly from the net investment income and realized capital gain reported in the Portfolio’s annual financial statements presented under GAAP.
Distributions classified as a tax basis return of capital, if any, are reflected in the accompanying Statements of Changes in Net Assets and have been reclassified to

paid in capital. In addition, other amounts have been reclassified between undistributed net investment income, accumulated undistributed net realized gains or losses and/or paid in capital to more appropriately conform financial accounting to tax characterizations of dividend distributions.
Multiclass Operations. Each class offered by the Portfolio has equal rights as to assets and voting privileges (except that shareholders of a class have exclusive voting rights regarding any matter relating solely to that class of shares). Income and non-class specific expenses of the Portfolio are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative value of settled shares. Realized and unrealized capital gains and losses of the Portfolio are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative net assets of each class. Class specific expenses, where applicable, currently include administrative, distribution and servicing fees.
Delayed-Delivery Transactions. The Portfolio may purchase or sell securities on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis. These transactions involve a commitment by the Portfolio to purchase or sell securities for a predetermined price or yield, with payment and delivery taking place beyond the customary settlement period. When delayed-delivery purchases are outstanding, the Portfolio will designate liquid assets in an amount sufficient to meet the purchase price. When purchasing a security on a delayed-delivery basis, the Portfolio assumes the rights and risks of ownership of the security, including the risk of price and yield fluctuations, and takes such fluctuations into account when determining its net asset value. The Portfolio may dispose of or renegotiate a delayed-delivery transaction after it is entered into, and may sell when-issued securities before they are delivered, which may result in a capital gain or loss. When the Portfolio has sold a security on a delayed-delivery basis, the Portfolio does not participate in future gains and losses with respect to the security.
Federal Income Taxes. The Portfolio intends to qualify as a regulated investment company under sub-chapter M of the Internal Revenue Code and distribute all of its taxable income and net realized gains, if applicable, to shareholders. Accordingly, no provision for Federal income taxes has been made.
Foreign Currency. The accounting records of the Portfolio are maintained in U.S. dollar. The market values of foreign securities, currency holdings and other assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollar based on the current exchange rates each business day. Fluctuations in the value of currency holdings and other assets and liabilities resulting from changes in exchange rates are recorded as unrealized foreign currency gains or losses. Realized gains or losses and unrealized appreciation or depreciation on investment securities and income and expenses are translated on the respective dates of such transactions. The effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on investments in securities are not segregated in the Statement of Operations from the effects of changes in market prices of those securities, but are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss on investment securities.

Forward Currency Transactions. The Portfolio may enter into forward currency contracts in connection with settling planned purchases or sales of securities, to hedge the currency exposure associated with some or all of the Portfolio’s securities or as a part of an investment strategy. A forward currency contract is an agreement between two parties to buy and sell a currency at a set price on a future date. The market value of a forward currency contract fluctuates with changes in forward currency exchange rates. Forward currency contracts are marked to market daily and the change in value is recorded by the Portfolio as an unrealized gain or loss. Realized gains or losses equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed are recorded upon delivery or receipt of the currency or, if a forward currency contract is offset by entering into another forward currency contract with the same broker, upon settlement of the net gain or loss. These contracts may involve market risk in excess of the unrealized gain or loss reflected in the Portfolio’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities. In addition, the Portfolio could be exposed to risk if the counterparties are unable to meet the terms of the contracts or if the value of the currency changes unfavorably to the U.S. dollar.
Futures Contracts. The Portfolio is authorized to enter into futures contracts. The Portfolio may use futures contracts to manage its exposure to the securities markets or to movements in interest rates and currency values. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are the imperfect correlation between the change in market value of the securities held by the Portfolio and the prices of futures contracts, the possibility of an illiquid market, and the inability of the counterparty to meet the terms of the contract. Futures contracts are valued based upon their quoted daily settlement prices. Upon entering into a futures contract, the Portfolio is required to deposit with its custodian, in a segregated account in the name of the futures broker, an amount of cash or U.S. Government and Agency Obligations in accordance with the initial margin requirements of the broker or exchange. Futures contracts are marked to market daily and an appropriate payable or receivable for the change in value (“variation margin”) is recorded by the Portfolio. Gains or losses are recognized but not considered realized until the contracts expire or are closed. Futures contracts involve, to varying degrees, risk of loss in excess of the variation margin disclosed in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
Guarantees and Indemnifications. Under the Trust’s organizational documents, each Trustee, officer, employee or other agent of the Trust (including the Trust’s investment manager) is indemnified against certain liabilities that may arise out of performance of their duties to the Portfolio. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Portfolio enters into contracts that contain a variety of indemnification clauses. The Portfolio’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Portfolio that have not yet occurred. However, the Portfolio has not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts, and believes the risk of loss to be remote.
Inflation-Indexed Bonds. The Portfolio may invest in inflation-indexed bonds. Inflation-indexed bonds are fixed-income securities whose principal value is periodically adjusted to the rate of inflation. The interest rate on these bonds is generally fixed at issuance at a rate lower than typical bonds. Over the life of an inflation-indexed bond, however, interest will be paid based on a principal value, which is adjusted for inflation. Any increase in the principal amount of an inflation-indexed bond will be included as interest income in the Statement of Operations, even though investors do not receive their principal until maturity.
Loan Participant and Assignments. The Portfolio may invest in direct debt instruments which are interests in amounts owned by corporate, governmental, or other borrowers to lenders or lending syndicates. The Portfolio’s investments in loans may be in the form of participations in loans or assignments of all or a portion of loans from third parties. A loan is often administered by a bank or other
| | | | | | |
| | Semiannual Report | | June 30, 2006 | | 17 |
Notes to Financial Statements (Cont.)
financial institution (the “lender”) that acts as agent for all holders. Then agent administers the terms of the loan, as specified in the loan agreement. When investing in a loan participation, the Portfolio has the right to receive payments of principal, interest and any fees to which it is entitled only from the lender selling the loan agreement and only upon receipt by the lender of payments from the borrower. The Portfolio generally has no right to enforce compliance with the terms of the loan agreement with the borrower. As a result, the Portfolio may be subject to the credit of both the borrower and the lender that is selling the loan agreement. When the Portfolio purchases assignments from lenders it acquires direct rights against the borrower on the loan. At the end of the period, the Portfolio had no unfunded loan commitments.
Options Contracts. The Portfolio may write call and put options on futures, swaps, securities or currencies it owns or in which it may invest. Writing put options tends to increase the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. Writing call options tends to decrease the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. When the Portfolio writes a call or put option, an amount equal to the premium received is recorded as a liability and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the option written. These liabilities are reflected as written options outstanding in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Certain options may be written with premiums to determined on a future date. The premiums for these options are based upon implied volatility parameters at specified terms. Premiums received from writing options which expire are treated as realized gains. Premiums received from writing options which are exercised or closed are added to the proceeds or offset against amounts paid on the underlying future, swap, security or currency transaction to determine the realized gain or loss. The Portfolio as a writer of an option has no control over whether the underlying future, swap, security or currency may be sold (call) or purchased (put) and as a result bears the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the future, swap, security or currency underlying the written option. There is the risk the Portfolio may not be able to enter into a closing transaction because of an illiquid market.
The Portfolio may also purchase put and call options. Purchasing call options tends to increase the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. Purchasing put options tends to decrease the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. The Portfolio pays a premium which is included in the Portfolio’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an investment and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the option. Premiums paid for purchasing options which expire are treated as realized losses. Certain options may be purchased with premiums to be determined on a future date. The premiums for these options are based upon implied volatility parameters at specified terms. The risk associated with purchasing put and call options is limited to the premium paid. Premiums paid for purchasing options which are exercised or closed are added to the amounts paid or offset against the proceeds on the underlying future, swap, security or currency transaction to determine the realized gain or loss.
Repurchase Agreements. The Portfolio may engage in repurchase transactions. Under the terms of a typical repurchase agreement, the Portfolio takes possession of an underlying debt obligation subject to an obligation of the seller to repurchase, and the Portfolio to resell, the obligation at an agreed-upon price and time. The underlying securities for all repurchase agreements are held in safekeeping at the Portfolio’s custodian or designated subcustodians under triparty repurchase agreements. The market value of the collateral must be equal to or exceed at all times the total amount of the repurchase obligations, including interest. Securities purchased under repurchase agreements are reflected as an asset in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Generally, in the event of counterparty default, the Portfolio has the right to use the collateral to offset losses incurred. If the counterparty should default, the Portfolio will seek to sell the securities which it holds as collateral. This could involve procedural costs or delays in addition to a loss on the securities if their value should fall below their repurchase price.
Mortgage-Related and Other Asset-Backed Securities. The Portfolio may invest in mortgage-related or other asset-backed securities. These securities include mortgage pass-through securities, collateralized mortgage obligations (“CMOs”), commercial mortgage-backed securities, mortgage dollar rolls, CMO residuals, stripped mortgage-backed securities (“SMBSs”) and other securities that directly or indirectly represent a participation in, or are secured by and payable from, mortgage loans on real property. The value of some mortgage- or asset-backed securities may be particularly sensitive to changes in prevailing interest rates. Early repayment of principal on some mortgage-related securities may expose a Portfolio to a lower rate of return upon reinvestment of principal. The value of these securities may fluctuate in response to the market’s perception of the creditworthiness of the issuers. Additionally, although mortgages and mortgage-related securities are generally supported by some form of government or private guarantee and/or insurance, there is no assurance that private guarantors or insurers will meet their obligations.
One type of SMBS has one class receiving all of the interest from the mortgage assets (the interest-only, or “IO” class), while the other class will receive all of the principal (the principal-only, or “PO” class). Payments received for IOs are included in interest income in the Statement of Operations. Because principal will not be received at the maturity of an IO, adjustments are made to the book value of the security on a daily basis until maturity. These adjustments are included in interest income in the Statement of Operations. Payments received for POs are treated as reductions to the cost and par value of the securities.
Swap Agreements. The Portfolio may engage in swap transactions, including, but not limited to, swap agreements on interest rate and credit default to manage its exposure to interest rates and credit risk. In connection with these agreements, securities may be identified as collateral in accordance with the terms of the respective swap agreements.
Interest rate swap agreements involve the exchange by the Portfolio with another party of their respective commitments to pay or receive interest, e.g., an exchange of floating rate payments for fixed rate payments with respect to the notional amount of principal.
Credit default swap agreements involve one party making a stream of payments to another party in exchange for the right to receive a specified return in the event of a default by a third party, typically corporate issues or sovereign issues of an emerging country, on its obligation. The Portfolio may use credit default swaps to provide a measure of protection against defaults of the issuers (i.e., to reduce risk where the Portfolio owns or has exposure to the sovereign issuer) or to take an active long or short position with respect to the likelihood of a particular issuer’s default. As a seller of protection, the Portfolio generally receives an upfront payment or a fixed rate of income throughout the term of the swap provided that there is no credit event. If the Portfolio is a seller of protection and a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement, the Portfolio will pay to the buyer of the protection an amount up to the notional value of the swap and in certain instances take delivery of the security. As the seller, a Portfolio would effectively add leverage to its portfolio because, in addition to its total net assets, the Portfolio would be subject to investment exposure on the notional amount of the swap. As a buyer of protection, a Portfolio generally receives an amount up to the notional value of the swap if a credit event occurs. The treatment of credit default swaps and other swap agreements that provide for contingent, non-periodic, bullet-type payments as “notional principal contracts” for federal income tax purposes is uncertain. Were the Internal Revenue Service to take the position that a credit default swap or other bullet-type swap is not a “notional principal contract” for federal income tax purposes, payments received by the Portfolio from such investments might be subject to income taxes.
Swaps are marked to market daily based upon quotations from market makers and the change in value, if any, is recorded as unrealized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Payments received or made at the beginning of the measurement

period are reflected as such in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. These upfront payments are recorded as realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations upon termination or maturity of the swap. A liquidation payment received or made at the termination of the swap is recorded as realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Net periodic payments received or paid by the Portfolio are included as part of realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Entering into these agreements involves, to varying degrees, elements of credit, market and documentation risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Such risks involve the possibility that there will be no liquid market for these agreements, that the counterparty to the agreements may default on its obligation to perform or disagree as to the meaning of contractual terms in the agreements and that there may be unfavorable changes in interest rates.
U.S. Government Agencies or Government-Sponsored Enterprises. Securities issued by U.S. Government agencies or government-sponsored enterprises may not be guaranteed by the U.S. Treasury. The Government National Mortgage Association (“GNMA”), a wholly owned U.S. Government corporation, is authorized to guarantee, with the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government, the timely payment of principal and interest on securities issued by institutions approved by GNMA and backed by pools of mortgages insured by the Federal Housing Administration or guaranteed by the Department of Veterans Affairs. Government-related guarantors (i.e., not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government) include the Federal National Mortgage Association (“FNMA” or “Fannie Mae”) and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“FHLMC” or “Freddie Mac”). Pass-through securities issued by FNMA are guaranteed as to timely payment of principal and interest by FNMA but are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government. FHLMC guarantees the timely payment of interest and ultimate collection of principal, but its participation certificates are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government.
New Accounting Policies. In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes—an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (the “Interpretation”). The Interpretation is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. Management is currently evaluating the application of the Interpretation to the Portfolio and will provide additional information in relation to the Interpretation in the Portfolio’s annual financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2006.
3. FEES, EXPENSES, AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Investment Advisory Fee. PIMCO is a majority-owned subsidiary of Allianz Global Investors of America L.P. (“AGI”), and serves as investment adviser (the “Adviser”) to the Trust, pursuant to an investment advisory contract. The Adviser receives a monthly fee at an annual rate based on average daily net assets of the Portfolio. The Advisory Fee is charged at an annual rate of 0.25%.
Administration Fee. PIMCO serves as administrator (the “Administrator”), and provides administrative services to the Trust for which it receives a monthly administrative fee based on average daily net assets of the Portfolio. As the Administrator, PIMCO bears the costs of various third-party services, including audit, custodial, portfolio accounting, legal, transfer agency and printing costs. The Administration Fee is charged at the annual rate of 0.25%.
Distribution and Servicing Fees. Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC (“AGID”) is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of AGI and serves as the distributor of the Trust’s shares. The Trust is permitted to reimburse AGID on a quarterly basis, out of the Administrative Class assets of the Portfolio in the amount of 0.15% on an annual basis of the average daily net assets of that class, for payments made to financial intermediaries that provide services in connection with the distribution of shares or administration of plans or programs that use Portfolio shares as their funding medium. The effective rate paid to AGID was 0.15% during the current fiscal year.
Expenses. The Trust is responsible for the following expenses: (i) salaries and other compensation of any of the Trust’s executive officers and employees who are not officers, directors, stockholders or employees of PIMCO or its subsidiaries or affiliates; (ii) taxes and governmental fees; (iii) brokerage fees and commissions and other portfolio transaction expenses; (iv) the costs of borrowing money, including interest expenses and bank overdraft charges; (v) fees and expenses of the Trustees who are not “interested persons” of PIMCO or the Trust, and any counsel retained exclusively for their benefit; (vi) extraordinary expenses, including costs of litigation and indemnification expenses; (vii) organization expenses and (viii) any expenses allocated or allocable to a specific class of shares, which include service fees payable with respect to the Administrative Class shares and may include certain other expenses as permitted by the Trust’s Multiple Class Plan adopted pursuant to Rule 18f-3 under the Act and subject to review and approval by the Trustees. The ratio of expenses to average net assets per share class, as disclosed in the Financial Highlights, may differ from the annual portfolio operating expenses per share class as disclosed in the Prospectus for the reasons set forth above.
For the current period ended June 30, 2006, each unaffiliated Trustee received an annual retainer of $15,000, plus $2,000 for each Board of Trustees quarterly meeting attended, $500 for each Board of Trustees committee meeting attended and $500 for each special board meeting attended, plus reimbursement of related expenses. In addition, each Committee Chair received an additional annual retainer of $500 and each Audit Committee Chair received an additional annual retainer of $1,500. These expenses are allocated on a pro-rata basis to each Portfolio of the Trust according to its respective net assets. The Trust pays no compensation directly to any Trustee or any other officer who is affiliated with the Administrator, all of whom receive remuneration for their services to the Trust from the Administrator or its affiliates.
4. PURCHASES AND SALES OF SECURITIES
The length of time the Portfolio has held a particular security is not generally a consideration in investment decisions. A change in the securities held by the Portfolio is known as “portfolio turnover”. The Portfolio may engage in frequent and active trading of portfolio securities to achieve its investment objective, particularly during periods of volatile market movements. High portfolio turnover (e.g., over 100%) involves correspondingly greater expenses to the Portfolio, including brokerage commissions or dealer mark-ups and other transaction costs on the sale of securities and reinvestments in other securities. Such sales may also result in realization of taxable capital gains, including short-term capital gains (which are generally taxed at ordinary income tax rates). The trading costs and tax effects associated with portfolio turnover may adversely affect the Portfolio’s performance.
Purchases and sales of securities (excluding short-term investments) for the period ended June 30, 2006 were as follows (amounts in thousands):

On June 1, 2004, the Attorney General of the State of New Jersey announced that it had dismissed PIMCO from a complaint filed by the New Jersey Attorney General on February 17, 2004, and that it had entered into a settlement agreement (the “New Jersey Settlement”) with Allianz Global Investors of America L.P. (“AGI”) (formerly known as Allianz Dresdner Asset Management of America L.P.), PEA Capital LLC (an entity affiliated with PIMCO through common ownership) (“PEA”) and Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC (“AGID”), in connection with the same matter. In the New Jersey Settlement, AGI, PEA and AGID neither admitted nor denied the allegations or conclusions of law, but did agree to pay New Jersey a civil fine of $15 million and $3 million for investigative costs and further potential enforcement initiatives against unrelated parties. They also undertook to implement certain governance changes. The complaint relating to the New Jersey Settlement alleged, among other things, that AGI, PEA and AGID had failed to disclose that they improperly allowed certain hedge funds to engage in “market timing” in certain funds. The complaint sought injunctive relief, civil monetary penalties, restitution and disgorgement of profits.
Since February 2004, PIMCO, AGI, PEA, AGID, and certain of their affiliates, including the PIMCO Funds, the Allianz Funds (formerly known as PIMCO Funds: Multi-Manager Series), and the Trustees and employees of the PIMCO Funds, have been named as defendants in fifteen lawsuits filed in various jurisdictions. Eleven of those lawsuits concern “market timing,” and they have been transferred to and consolidated for pre-trial proceedings in a multi-district litigation proceeding in the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland; the other four lawsuits concern “revenue sharing” and have been consolidated into a single action in the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut. The lawsuits have been commenced as putative class actions on behalf of investors who purchased, held or redeemed shares of the various series of the PIMCO Funds and the Allianz Funds during specified periods, or as derivative actions on behalf of the PIMCO Funds and Allianz Funds.
The market timing actions in the District of Maryland generally allege that certain hedge funds were allowed to engage in “market timing” in certain of PIMCO Funds and the Allianz Funds and the this alleged activity was not disclosed. Pursuant to tolling agreements entered into with the derivative and class action plaintiffs, PIMCO, the Trustees, and certain employees of PIMCO who were previously named as defendants have all been dropped as defendants in the market timing actions; the plaintiffs continue to assert claims on behalf of the shareholders of the PIMCO Funds or on behalf of the PIMCO Funds themselves against other defendants. By order dated November 3, 2005, the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland granted the PIMCO Funds’ motion to dismiss claims asserted against it in a consolidated amended complaint where the PIMCO Funds were named, in the complaint, as a nominal defendant. The revenue sharing action in the District of Connecticut generally alleges that fund assets were inappropriately used to pay brokers to promote the PIMCO Funds and Allianz Funds, including directing fund brokerage transactions to such brokers, and that such alleged arrangements were not fully disclosed to shareholders. On August 11, 2005 the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut conducted a hearing on defendants’ motion to dismiss the consolidated amended complaint in the revenue sharing action but has not yet ruled on the motion to dismiss. The market timing and revenue sharing lawsuits seek, among other things, unspecified compensatory damages plus interest and, in some cases, punitive damages, the rescission of investment advisory contracts, the return of fees paid under those contracts and restitution.
Under Section 9(a) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“1940 Act”), if the New Jersey Settlement or any of the lawsuits described above were to result in a court injunction against AGI, PEA, AGID and/or their affiliates, PIMCO could, in the absence of exemptive relief granted by the SEC, be barred from serving as an investment adviser, and AGID could be barred from serving as principal underwriter, to any registered investment company, including the Portfolios of the Trust. In connection with an inquiry from the SEC concerning the status of the New Jersey Settlement under Section 9(a), PEA, AGID, AGI and certain of their affiliates (including PIMCO) (together, the “Applicants”) have sought exemptive relief from the SEC under Section 9(c) of the 1940 Act. The SEC has granted the Applicants a temporary exemption from the provisions of Section 9(a) with respect to the New Jersey Settlement until the earlier of (i) September 13, 2006 and (ii) the date on which the SEC takes final action on their application for a permanent order. There is no assurance that the SEC will issue a permanent order.
Two nearly identical class action civil complaints have been filed in August 2005, in the Northern District of Illinois Eastern Division alleging that the plaintiffs each purchased and sold a 10-year Treasury note futures contract and suffered damages from an alleged shortage when PIMCO held both physical and futures positions in 10-year Treasury notes for its client accounts. The two actions have been consolidated into one action, and the two separate complaints have been replaced by a consolidated complaint. PIMCO is a named defendant, and the PIMCO Funds have been added as a defendant, to the consolidated action. PIMCO strongly believes the complaint (and any consolidated complaint filed hereafter) is without merit and intends to vigorously defend itself.
Certain Portfolios of the Trust were recently served in an adversary proceeding brought by the Official Committee of Asbestos Claimants of G-I Holdings, Inc. in G-I Holdings, Inc.’s bankruptcy in the District of New Jersey. PIMCO was previously named in this lawsuit and remains a defendant. The plaintiff seeks to recover for the bankruptcy estate assets that were transferred by the predecessor entity of G-I Holdings, Inc. to a wholly-owned subsidiary in 1994. The subsidiary has since issued notes, of which certain Portfolios of the Trust are alleged to be holders. The complaint alleges that in 2000, more than two hundred noteholders—including certain Portfolios of the Trust—were granted a second priority lien on the assets of the subsidiary in exchange for their consent to a refinancing transaction and the granting of a first priority lien to the lending banks. The plaintiff is seeking invalidation of the lien in favor of the noteholders and/or the value of the lien.
It is possible that these matters and/or other developments resulting from these matters could result in increased fund redemptions or other adverse consequences to the Portfolios. However, PIMCO and AGID believe that these matters are not likely to have a material adverse effect on the Portfolios or on PIMCO’s or AGID’s ability to perform their respective investment advisory or distribution services relating to the Portfolios.

Chairman’s Letter
Dear PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust Shareholder:
It is our pleasure to present to you the semiannual report for the PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust covering the six-month period ended June 30, 2006.
Highlights of the global bond markets during the six-month period included:
| n | | Most fixed-income sectors lost ground during the first half of 2006, as concern about accelerating inflation and central bank tightening pushed interest rates higher worldwide. The benchmark Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index (which includes Treasury, Investment-Grade Corporate, and Residential Mortgage-Backed Securities) returned -0.72% for the first six months of the year. On June 30, the benchmark ten-year Treasury yielded 5.14%, 0.75% higher than at the start of the year. The U.S. yield curve remained flat as shorter-maturity yields rose by a comparable amount. |
| n | | The Federal Reserve tightened four times during the reporting period, bringing the Federal Funds Rate to 5.25%. The increase near the end of the period was the Federal Reserve’s 17th consecutive rate hike since the start of its tightening cycle in 2004. The Federal Reserve was not alone, as central banks in Europe, India, and China tightened credit in unison for the first time since 2000. The Bank of Japan, whose zero-interest-rate policy has flooded global markets with liquidity, looked set to reverse this policy in the coming months. |
In these pages please find a more complete Portfolio review as it relates to financial-market activities, as well as details about total-return investment performance for the six-month reporting period. Thank you for the trust you have placed in us. We will continue to work diligently to meet your investment needs.
Sincerely,

Brent R. Harris
Chairman, PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust

Important Information About the Portfolio
PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust (the “Trust”) is an open-end management investment company currently consisting of nineteen separate investment portfolios, including the Total Return Portfolio II (the “Portfolio”). The Portfolio is only available as a funding vehicle under variable life insurance policies or variable annuity contracts issued by insurance companies (“Variable Contracts”). Individuals may not purchase shares of the Portfolio directly. Shares of the Portfolio also may be sold to qualified pension and retirement plans outside of the separate account context.
We believe that bond funds have an important role to play in a well diversified investment portfolio. It is important to note, however, that in an environment where interest rates may trend upward, rising rates would negatively impact the performance of most bond funds, and fixed-income securities held by a fund are likely to decrease in value. The price volatility of fixed-income securities can also increase during periods of rising interest rates resulting in increased losses to a fund. Bond funds and individual bonds with a longer duration (a measure of the expected life of a security) tend to be more sensitive to changes in interest rates, usually making them more volatile than securities or funds with shorter durations. The longer-term performance of most bond funds has benefited from capital gains in part resulting from an extended period of declining interest rates. In the event interest rates increase, these capital gains should not be expected to recur.
The Portfolio may be subject to various risks in addition to those described above. Some of these risks may include, but are not limited to, the following: credit risk, market risk, issuer risk, liquidity risk, derivatives risk, mortgage risk, leveraging risk and management risk. A complete description of these risks is contained in the Portfolio’s prospectus. The Portfolio may use derivative instruments for hedging purposes or as part of an investment strategy. Use of these instruments may involve certain costs and risks such as liquidity risk, interest rate risk, market risk, credit risk, management risk and the risk that the Portfolio could not close out a position when it would be most advantageous to do so. A Portfolio investing in derivatives could lose more than the principal amount invested in these instruments.
On the performance summary page in this Semiannual Report, the Total Return Investment Performance table measures performance assuming that all dividend and capital gain distributions were reinvested.
An investment in the Portfolio is not a deposit of a bank and is not guaranteed or insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. It is possible to lose money on investments in the Portfolio.
PIMCO has adopted written proxy voting policies and procedures (“Proxy Policy”) as required by Rule 206(4)-6 under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940. The Proxy Policy has been adopted by the Trust as the policies and procedures that PIMCO will use when voting proxies on behalf of the Portfolio. Copies of the written Proxy Policy and the factors that PIMCO may consider in determining how to vote proxies for the Portfolio, and information about how the Portfolio voted proxies relating to portfolio securities held during the most recent twelve-month period ended June 30, are available without charge, upon request, by calling the Trust at 1-866-746-2606 and on the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) website at http://www.sec.gov.
The Portfolio files its complete schedule of portfolio holdings with the SEC for the first and third quarters of each fiscal year on Form N-Q. A copy of the Trust’s Form N-Q is available on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov and may be reviewed and copied at the SEC’s Public Reference Room in Washington D.C. Information on the operation of the Public Reference Room may be obtained by calling 1-800-SEC-0330.
PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust is distributed by Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC, 2187 Atlantic Street, Stamford, CT 06902.

The following disclosure provides important information regarding the Portfolio’s Expense Example (“Example” or “Expense Example”), which appears in this Semiannual Report. Please refer to this information when reviewing the Expense Example for the Portfolio.
Example
As a shareholder of the Portfolio, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs and (2) ongoing costs, including advisory and administrative fees; distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees (Administrative Class only); and other Portfolio expenses. The Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Portfolio and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Expense Example does not reflect any fees or other expenses imposed by the Variable Contracts. If it did, the expenses reflected in the Expense Examples would be higher. The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period indicated, which is from January 1, 2006 to June 30, 2006.
Actual Expenses
The information in the table under the heading “Actual Performance” provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in these columns, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.60), then multiply the result by the number in the appropriate column for your share class, in the row titled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The information in the table under the heading “Hypothetical Performance (5% return before expenses)” provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Portfolio’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Portfolio’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Portfolio and other portfolios. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other portfolios.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs. Therefore, the information under the heading “Hypothetical Performance (5% return before expenses)” is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different portfolios. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.
The expense ratio may vary period to period because of various factors, such as an increase in expenses not covered by the advisory and administrative fees (such as expenses of the trustees and their counsel or litigation expense).
Portfolio Benchmark
Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index represents securities that are taxable, and dollar denominated. The index covers the U.S. investment grade fixed rate bond market, with index components for government and corporate securities, mortgage pass-through securities, and asset-backed securities. These major sectors are subdivided into more specific indices that are calculated and reported on a regular basis. It is not possible to invest directly in this index.

Past performance is no guarantee of future results. The performance quoted represents past performance. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so the Portfolio shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. The Portfolio’s performance does not reflect the deduction of additional charges and expenses imposed in connection with investing in Variable Contracts, which will reduce returns. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. Performance data current to the most recent month-end is available by calling (800) 927-4648.

Portfolio Insights
» | | The PIMCO Total Return Portfolio II seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing under normal circumstances at least 65% of its total assets in a diversified portfolio of Fixed-Income Instruments of varying maturities. |
» | | The Portfolio’s above-benchmark duration detracted from returns as yields rose in the first half of the year. |
» | | An emphasis on short-term maturities detracted from performance as short-term yields rose more than longer-dated yields. The Federal Reserve continued with its tightening policy, sending short-term rates higher while intermediate- and longer-term rates shifted higher. |
» | | An overweight to mortgages contributed to returns as this sector outperformed like-duration Treasuries. |
» | | An underweight to corporate securities detracted from returns as this sector outperformed like-duration Treasuries. |
» | | A tactical allocation to municipal bonds was positive for performance as municipal yields rose less than Treasury yields. |

Notes to Financial Statements
1. ORGANIZATION
The Total Return Portfolio II (the “Portfolio”) is a series of the PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust (the “Trust”). The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “Act”), as amended, as an open-end investment management company organized as a Delaware business trust on October 3, 1997. The Portfolio offers two classes of shares: Institutional and Administrative. Information presented in these financial statements pertains to the Administrative Class of the Portfolio. Certain detailed financial information for the Institutional Class is provided separately and is available upon request. The Trust is designed to be used as an investment vehicle by Separate Accounts of insurance companies that fund variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies and by qualified pension and retirement plans.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Portfolio in the preparation of its financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Security Valuation. Portfolio securities are valued as of the close of regular trading (normally 4:00 p.m., Eastern Time) on each day that the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) is open. Portfolio securities and other assets for which market quotes are readily available are stated at market value. Market value is generally determined on the basis of last reported sales prices, or if no sales are reported, based on quotes obtained from a quotation reporting system, established market makers, or pricing services. Fixed-income securities and non-exchange traded derivatives are normally valued on the basis of quotes obtained from brokers and dealers or pricing services. Prices obtained from independent pricing services use information provided by market makers or estimates of market values obtained from yield data relating to investments or securities with similar characteristics. Certain fixed-income securities purchased on a delayed-delivery basis are marked to market daily until settlement at the forward settlement date. Short-term investments having a maturity of 60 days or less are generally valued at amortized cost. Exchange traded options, futures and options on futures are valued at the settlement price determined by the relevant exchange.
Investments initially valued in currencies other than the U.S. dollar are converted to the U.S. dollar using exchange rates obtained from pricing services. As a result, the NAV of the Portfolio’s shares may be affected by changes in the value of currencies in relation to the U.S. dollar. The value of securities traded in markets outside the United States or denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar may be affected significantly on a day that the NYSE is closed and an investor is not able to purchase, redeem or exchange shares.
Securities and other assets for which market quotes are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction. The Board of Trustees has adopted methods for valuing securities and other assets in circumstances where market quotes are not readily available, and has delegated to Pacific Investment Management Company LLC (“PIMCO”) the responsibility for applying the valuation methods. In the event that market quotes are not readily available, and the security or asset cannot be valued pursuant to one of the valuation methods, the value of the security or asset will be determined in good faith by the Valuation Committee of the Board of Trustees, generally based upon recommendations provided by PIMCO.
Market quotes are considered not readily available in circumstances where there is an absence of current or reliable market-based data (e.g., trade information, bid/asked information, broker quotes), including where events occur after the close of the relevant market, but prior to the close of regular trading, that materially affect the values of the Portfolio’s securities or assets. In addition, market quotes are considered not readily available when, due to extraordinary circumstances, the exchanges or markets on which the securities trade do not open for trading for the entire day and no other market prices are available. The Board has delegated to PIMCO the responsibility for monitoring significant events that may materially affect the values of the Portfolio’s securities or assets and for determining whether the value of the applicable securities or assets should be re-evaluated in light of such significant events. When the Portfolio uses fair value pricing to determine its NAV, securities will not be priced on the basis of quotations from the primary market in which they are traded, but rather may be priced by another method that the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction believe accurately reflects fair value. The Trust’s policy is intended to result in a calculation of the Portfolio’s NAV that fairly reflects security values as of the time of pricing. However, fair values determined by the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction may not accurately reflect the price that the Portfolio could obtain for a security if it were to dispose of that security as of the time of pricing. Because foreign securities can trade on non-business days, the NAV of the Portfolio may change on days when shareholders will not be able to purchase or redeem shares. The prices used by the Portfolio may differ from the value that would be realized if the securities were sold and the differences could be material to the financial statements.
Securities Transactions and Investment Income. Securities transactions are recorded as of the trade date. Securities purchased or sold on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis may be settled a month or more after the trade date. Realized gains and losses from securities sold are recorded on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Portfolio is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, adjusted for the accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis. Paydown gains and losses on mortgage-related or asset-backed securities are recorded as components of interest income in the Statement of Operations.
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends from net investment income, if any, are declared on each day the Portfolio is open for business and are distributed to shareholders monthly. Net realized capital gains earned by the Portfolio, if any, will be distributed no less frequently than once each year. Most shareholders choose to reinvest their dividends and capital gain distribution in additional shares of the Portfolio.
Income dividends and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP. Differences between tax regulations and GAAP may change the fiscal year when income and capital items are recognized for tax and GAAP purposes. Examples of events that give rise to timing differences include wash sales, straddles, net operating losses and capital loss carryforwards. Further, the character of investment income and capital gains may be different for certain transactions under the two methods of accounting. Examples of characterization differences include the treatment of mortgage paydowns, swaps, foreign currency transactions and contingent debt instruments. As a result, income dividends and capital gain distributions declared during a fiscal period may differ significantly from the net investment income and realized capital gain reported in the Portfolio’s annual financial statements presented under GAAP.
Distributions classified as a tax basis return of capital, if any, are reflected in the accompanying Statements of Changes in Net Assets and have been reclassified to paid in capital. In addition, other amounts have been reclassified between undistributed net investment income, accumulated undistributed net realized gains

or losses and/or paid in capital to more appropriately conform financial accounting to tax characterizations of dividend distributions.
Multiclass Operations. Each class offered by the Portfolio has equal rights as to assets and voting privileges (except that shareholders of a class have exclusive voting rights regarding any matter relating solely to that class of shares). Income and non-class specific expenses of the Portfolio are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative value of settled shares. Realized and unrealized capital gains and losses of the Portfolio are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative net assets of each class. Class specific expenses, where applicable, currently include administrative, distribution and servicing fees.
Federal Income Taxes. The Portfolio intends to qualify as a regulated investment company under sub-chapter M of the Internal Revenue Code and distribute all of its taxable income and net realized gains, if applicable, to shareholders. Accordingly, no provision for Federal income taxes has been made.
Futures Contracts. The Portfolio is authorized to enter into futures contracts. The Portfolio may use futures contracts to manage its exposure to the securities markets or to movements in interest rates and currency values. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are the imperfect correlation between the change in market value of the securities held by the Portfolio and the prices of futures contracts, the possibility of an illiquid market, and the inability of the counterparty to meet the terms of the contract. Futures contracts are valued based upon their quoted daily settlement prices. Upon entering into a futures contract, the Portfolio is required to deposit with its custodian, in a segregated account in the name of the futures broker, an amount of cash or U.S. Government and Agency Obligations in accordance with the initial margin requirements of the broker or exchange. Futures contracts are marked to market daily and an appropriate payable or receivable for the change in value (“variation margin”) is recorded by the Portfolio. Gains or losses are recognized but not considered realized until the contracts expire or are closed. Futures contracts involve, to varying degrees, risk of loss in excess of the variation margin disclosed in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
Guarantees and Indemnifications. Under the Trust’s organizational documents, each Trustee, officer, employee or other agent of the Trust (including the Trust’s investment manager) is indemnified against certain liabilities that may arise out of performance of their duties to the Portfolio. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Portfolio enters into contracts that contain a variety of indemnification clauses. The Portfolio’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Portfolio that have not yet occurred. However, the Portfolio has not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts, and believes the risk of loss to be remote.
Inflation-Indexed Bonds. The Portfolio may invest in inflation-indexed bonds. Inflation-indexed bonds are fixed-income securities whose principal value is periodically adjusted to the rate of inflation. The interest rate on these bonds is generally fixed at issuance at a rate lower than typical bonds. Over the life of an inflation-indexed bond, however, interest will be paid based on a principal value, which is adjusted for inflation. Any increase in the principal amount of an inflation-indexed bond will be included as interest income in the Statement of Operations, even though investors do not receive their principal until maturity.
Options Contracts. The Portfolio may write call and put options on futures, swaps, securities or currencies it owns or in which it may invest. Writing put options tends to increase the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. Writing call options tends to decrease the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. When the Portfolio writes a call or put option, an amount equal to the premium received is recorded as a liability and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the option written. These liabilities are reflected as written options outstanding in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Certain options may be written with premiums to determined on a future date. The premiums for these options are based upon implied volatility parameters at specified terms. Premiums received from writing options which expire are treated as realized gains. Premiums received from writing options which are exercised or closed are added to the proceeds or offset against amounts paid on the underlying future, swap, security or currency transaction to determine the realized gain or loss. The Portfolio as a writer of an option has no control over whether the underlying future, swap, security or currency may be sold (call) or purchased (put) and as a result bears the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the future, swap, security or currency underlying the written option. There is the risk the Portfolio may not be able to enter into a closing transaction because of an illiquid market.
The Portfolio may also purchase put and call options. Purchasing call options tends to increase the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. Purchasing put options tends to decrease the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. The Portfolio pays a premium which is included in the Portfolio’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an investment and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the option. Premiums paid for purchasing options which expire are treated as realized losses. Certain options may be purchased with premiums to be determined on a future date. The premiums for these options are based upon implied volatility parameters at specified terms. The risk associated with purchasing put and call options is limited to the premium paid. Premiums paid for purchasing options which are exercised or closed are added to the amounts paid or offset against the proceeds on the underlying future, swap, security or currency transaction to determine the realized gain or loss.
Repurchase Agreements. The Portfolio may engage in repurchase transactions. Under the terms of a typical repurchase agreement, the Portfolio takes possession of an underlying debt obligation subject to an obligation of the seller to repurchase, and the Portfolio to resell, the obligation at an agreed-upon price and time. The market value of the collateral must be equal to or exceed at all times the total amount of the repurchase obligations, including interest. Securities purchased under repurchase agreements are reflected as an asset in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Generally, in the event of counterparty default, the Portfolio has the right to use the collateral to offset losses incurred. If the counterparty should default, the Portfolio will seek to sell the securities which it holds as collateral. This could involve procedural costs or delays in addition to a loss on the securities if their value should fall below their repurchase price.
Mortgage-Related and Other Asset-Backed Securities. The Portfolio may invest in mortgage-related or other asset-backed securities. These securities include mortgage pass-through securities, collateralized mortgage obligations (“CMOs”), commercial mortgage-backed securities, mortgage dollar rolls, CMO residuals, stripped mortgage-backed securities (“SMBSs”) and other securities that directly or indirectly represent a participation in, or are secured by and payable from, mortgage loans on real property. The value of some mortgage- or asset-backed securities may be particularly sensitive to changes in prevailing interest rates. Early repayment of principal on some mortgage-related securities may expose a Portfolio to a lower rate of return upon reinvestment of principal. The value of these securities may fluctuate in response to the market’s perception of the creditworthiness of the issuers. Additionally, although mortgages and mortgage-related securities are generally supported by some form of government or private guarantee and/or insurance, there is no assurance that private guarantors or insurers will meet their obligations.
One type of SMBS has one class receiving all of the interest from the mortgage assets (the interest-only, or “IO” class), while the other class will receive all of the principal (the principal-only, or “PO” class). Payments received for IOs are included
| | | | | | |
| | Semiannual Report | | June 30, 2006 | | 13 |
Notes to Financial Statements (Cont.)
in interest income in the Statement of Operations. Because principal will not be received at the maturity of an IO, adjustments are made to the book value of the security on a daily basis until maturity. These adjustments are included in interest income in the Statement of Operations. Payments received for POs are treated as reductions to the cost and par value of the securities.
Swap Agreements. The Portfolio may engage in swap transactions, including, but not limited to, swap agreements on interest rate and credit default to manage its exposure to interest rates and credit risk. In connection with these agreements, securities may be identified as collateral in accordance with the terms of the respective swap agreements.
Interest rate swap agreements involve the exchange by the Portfolio with another party of their respective commitments to pay or receive interest, e.g., an exchange of floating rate payments for fixed rate payments with respect to the notional amount of principal.
Credit default swap agreements involve one party making a stream of payments to another party in exchange for the right to receive a specified return in the event of a default by a third party, typically corporate issues or sovereign issues of an emerging country, on its obligation. The Portfolio may use credit default swaps to provide a measure of protection against defaults of the issuers (i.e., to reduce risk where the Portfolio owns or has exposure to the sovereign issuer) or to take an active long or short position with respect to the likelihood of a particular issuer’s default. As a seller of protection, the Portfolio generally receives an upfront payment or a fixed rate of income throughout the term of the swap provided that there is no credit event. If the Portfolio is a seller of protection and a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement, the Portfolio will pay to the buyer of the protection an amount up to the notional value of the swap and in certain instances take delivery of the security. As the seller, a Portfolio would effectively add leverage to its portfolio because, in addition to its total net assets, the Portfolio would be subject to investment exposure on the notional amount of the swap. As a buyer of protection, a Portfolio generally receives an amount up to the notional value of the swap if a credit event occurs. The treatment of credit default swaps and other swap agreements that provide for contingent, non-periodic, bullet-type payments as “notional principal contracts” for federal income tax purposes is uncertain. Were the Internal Revenue Service to take the position that a credit default swap or other bullet-type swap is not a “notional principal contract” for federal income tax purposes, payments received by the Portfolio from such investments might be subject to income taxes.
Swaps are marked to market daily based upon quotations from market makers and the change in value, if any, is recorded as unrealized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Payments received or made at the beginning of the measurement period are reflected as such in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. These upfront payments are recorded as realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations upon termination or maturity of the swap. A liquidation payment received or made at the termination of the swap is recorded as realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Net periodic payments received or paid by the Portfolio are included as part of realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Entering into these agreements involves, to varying degrees, elements of credit, market and documentation risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Such risks involve the possibility that there will be no liquid market for these agreements, that the counterparty to the agreements may default on its obligation to perform or disagree as to the meaning of contractual terms in the agreements and that there may be unfavorable changes in interest rates.
U.S. Government Agencies or Government-Sponsored Enterprises. Securities issued by U.S. Government agencies or government-sponsored enterprises may not be guaranteed by the U.S. Treasury. The Government National Mortgage Association (“GNMA”), a wholly owned U.S. Government corporation, is authorized to guarantee, with the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government, the timely payment of principal and interest on securities issued by institutions approved by GNMA and backed by pools of mortgages insured by the Federal Housing Administration or guaranteed by the Department of Veterans Affairs. Government-related guarantors (i.e., not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government) include the Federal National Mortgage Association (“FNMA” or “Fannie Mae”) and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“FHLMC” or “Freddie Mac”). Pass-through securities issued by FNMA are guaranteed as to timely payment of principal and interest by FNMA but are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government. FHLMC guarantees the timely payment of interest and ultimate collection of principal, but its participation certificates are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government.
New Accounting Policies. In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes—an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (the “Interpretation”). The Interpretation is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. Management is currently evaluating the application of the Interpretation to the Portfolio and will provide additional information in relation to the Interpretation in the Portfolio’s annual financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2006.

In addition, each Committee Chair received an additional annual retainer of $500 and each Audit Committee Chair received an additional annual retainer of $1,500. These expenses are allocated on a pro-rata basis to each Portfolio of the Trust according to its respective net assets. The Trust pays no compensation directly to any Trustee or any other officer who is affiliated with the Administrator, all of whom receive remuneration for their services to the Trust from the Administrator or its affiliates.
4. PURCHASES AND SALES OF SECURITIES
The length of time the Portfolio has held a particular security is not generally a consideration in investment decisions. A change in the securities held by the Portfolio is known as “portfolio turnover”. The Portfolio may engage in frequent and active trading of portfolio securities to achieve its investment objective, particularly during periods of volatile market movements. High portfolio turnover (e.g., over 100%) involves correspondingly greater expenses to the Portfolio, including brokerage commissions or dealer mark-ups and other transaction costs on the sale of securities and reinvestments in other securities. Such sales may also result in realization of taxable capital gains, including short-term capital gains (which are generally taxed at ordinary income tax rates). The trading costs and tax effects associated with portfolio turnover may adversely affect the Portfolio’s performance.
Purchases and sales of securities (excluding short-term investments) for the period ended June 30, 2006 were as follows (amounts in thousands):

8. REGULATORY AND LITIGATION MATTERS
On June 1, 2004, the Attorney General of the State of New Jersey announced that it had dismissed PIMCO from a complaint filed by the New Jersey Attorney General on February 17, 2004, and that it had entered into a settlement agreement (the “New Jersey Settlement”) with Allianz Global Investors of America L.P. (“AGI”) (formerly known as Allianz Dresdner Asset Management of America L.P.), PEA Capital LLC (an entity affiliated with PIMCO through common ownership) (“PEA”) and Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC (“AGID”), in connection with the same matter. In the New Jersey Settlement, AGI, PEA and AGID neither admitted nor denied the allegations or conclusions of law, but did agree to pay New Jersey a civil fine of $15 million and $3 million for investigative costs and further potential enforcement initiatives against unrelated parties. They also undertook to implement certain governance changes. The complaint relating to the New Jersey Settlement alleged, among other things, that AGI, PEA and AGID had failed to disclose that they improperly allowed certain hedge funds to engage in “market timing” in certain funds. The complaint sought injunctive relief, civil monetary penalties, restitution and disgorgement of profits.
Since February 2004, PIMCO, AGI, PEA, AGID, and certain of their affiliates, including the PIMCO Funds, the Allianz Funds (formerly known as PIMCO Funds: Multi-Manager Series), and the Trustees and employees of the PIMCO Funds, have been named as defendants in fifteen lawsuits filed in various jurisdictions. Eleven of those lawsuits concern “market timing,” and they have been transferred to and consolidated for pre-trial proceedings in a multi-district litigation proceeding in the
| | | | | | |
| | Semiannual Report | | June 30, 2006 | | 15 |
Notes to Financial Statements (Cont.)
U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland; the other four lawsuits concern “revenue sharing” and have been consolidated into a single action in the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut. The lawsuits have been commenced as putative class actions on behalf of investors who purchased, held or redeemed shares of the various series of the PIMCO Funds and the Allianz Funds during specified periods, or as derivative actions on behalf of the PIMCO Funds and Allianz Funds.
The market timing actions in the District of Maryland generally allege that certain hedge funds were allowed to engage in “market timing” in certain of the PIMCO Funds and the Allianz Funds and this alleged activity was not disclosed. Pursuant to tolling agreements entered into with the derivative and class action plaintiffs, PIMCO, the Trustees, and certain employees of PIMCO who were previously named as defendants have all been dropped as defendants in the market timing actions; the plaintiffs continue to assert claims on behalf of the shareholders of the PIMCO Funds or on behalf of the PIMCO Funds themselves against other defendants. By order dated November 3, 2005, the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland granted the PIMCO Funds’ motion to dismiss claims asserted against it in a consolidated amended complaint where the PIMCO Funds were named, in the complaint, as a nominal defendant. The revenue sharing action in the District of Connecticut generally alleges that fund assets were inappropriately used to pay brokers to promote the PIMCO Funds and Allianz Funds including directing fund brokerage transactions to such brokers, and that such alleged arrangements were not fully disclosed to shareholders. On August 11, 2005 the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut conducted a hearing on defendants’ motion to dismiss the consolidated amended complaint in the revenue sharing action but has not yet ruled on the motion to dismiss. The market timing and revenue sharing lawsuits seek, among other things, unspecified compensatory damages plus interest and, in some cases, punitive damages, the rescission of investment advisory contracts, the return of fees paid under those contracts and restitution.
Under Section 9(a) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“1940 Act”), if the New Jersey Settlement or any of the lawsuits described above were to result in a court injunction against AGI, PEA, AGID and/or their affiliates, PIMCO could, in the absence of exemptive relief granted by the SEC, be barred from serving as an investment adviser, and AGID could be barred from serving as principal underwriter, to any registered investment company, including the Portfolios of the Trust. In connection with an inquiry from the SEC concerning the status of the New Jersey Settlement under Section 9(a), PEA, AGID, AGI and certain of their affiliates (including PIMCO) (together, the “Applicants”) have sought exemptive relief from the SEC under Section 9(c) of the 1940 Act. The SEC has granted the Applicants a temporary exemption from the provisions of Section 9(a) with respect to the New Jersey Settlement until the earlier of (i) September 13, 2006 and (ii) the date on which the SEC takes final action on their application for a permanent order. There is no assurance that the SEC will issue a permanent order.
Two nearly identical class action civil complaints have been filed in August 2005, in the Northern District of Illinois Eastern Division alleging that the plaintiffs each purchased and sold a 10-year Treasury note futures contract and suffered damages from an alleged shortage when PIMCO held both physical and futures positions in 10-year Treasury notes for its client accounts. The two actions have been consolidated into one action, and the two separate complaints have been replaced by a consolidated complaint. PIMCO is a named defendant, and the PIMCO Funds have been added as a defendant, to the consolidated action. PIMCO strongly believes the complaint (and any consolidated complaint filed hereafter) is without merit and intends to vigorously defend itself.
Certain Portfolios of the Trust were recently served in an adversary proceeding brought by the Official Committee of Asbestos Claimants of G-I Holdings, Inc. in G-I Holdings, Inc.’s bankruptcy in the District of New Jersey. PIMCO was previously named in this lawsuit and remains a defendant. The plaintiff seeks to recover for the bankruptcy estate assets that were transferred by the predecessor entity of G-I Holdings, Inc. to a wholly-owned subsidiary in 1994. The subsidiary has since issued notes, of which certain Portfolios of the Trust are alleged to be holders. The complaint alleges that in 2000, more than two hundred noteholders—including certain Portfolios of the Trust—were granted a second priority lien on the assets of the subsidiary in exchange for their consent to a refinancing transaction and the granting of a first priority lien to the lending banks. The plaintiff is seeking invalidation of the lien in favor of the noteholders and/or the value of the lien.
It is possible that these matters and/or other developments resulting from these matters could result in increased fund redemptions or other adverse consequences to the Portfolios. However, PIMCO and AGID believe that these matters are not likely to have a material adverse effect on the Portfolios or on PIMCO’s or AGID’s ability to perform their respective investment advisory or distribution services relating to the Portfolios.

Chairman’s Letter
Dear PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust Shareholder:
It is our pleasure to present to you the semiannual report for the PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust covering the six-month period ended June 30, 2006.
Highlights of the global bond markets during the six-month period included:
| n | | Most fixed-income sectors lost ground during the first half of 2006, as concern about accelerating inflation and central bank tightening pushed interest rates higher worldwide. The benchmark Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index (which includes Treasury, Investment-Grade Corporate, and Residential Mortgage-Backed Securities) returned -0.72% for the first six months of the year. On June 30, the benchmark ten-year Treasury yielded 5.14%, 0.75% higher than at the start of the year. The U.S. yield curve remained flat as shorter-maturity yields rose by a comparable amount. |
| n | | The Federal Reserve tightened four times during the reporting period, bringing the Federal Funds Rate to 5.25%. The increase near the end of the period was the Federal Reserve’s 17th consecutive rate hike since the start of its tightening cycle in 2004. The Federal Reserve was not alone, as central banks in Europe, India, and China tightened credit in unison for the first time since 2000. The Bank of Japan, whose zero-interest-rate policy has flooded global markets with liquidity, looked set to reverse this policy in the coming months. |
In these pages please find a more complete Portfolio review as it relates to financial-market activities, as well as details about total-return investment performance for the six-month reporting period. Thank you for the trust you have placed in us. We will continue to work diligently to meet your investment needs.
Sincerely,

Brent R. Harris
Chairman, PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust

Important Information About the Portfolio
PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust (the “Trust”) is an open-end management investment company currently consisting of nineteen separate investment portfolios, including the Total Return Portfolio II (the “Portfolio”). The Portfolio is only available as a funding vehicle under variable life insurance policies or variable annuity contracts issued by insurance companies (“Variable Contracts”). Individuals may not purchase shares of the Portfolio directly. Shares of the Portfolio also may be sold to qualified pension and retirement plans outside of the separate account context.
We believe that bond funds have an important role to play in a well diversified investment portfolio. It is important to note, however, that in an environment where interest rates may trend upward, rising rates would negatively impact the performance of most bond funds, and fixed-income securities held by a fund are likely to decrease in value. The price volatility of fixed-income securities can also increase during periods of rising interest rates resulting in increased losses to a fund. Bond funds and individual bonds with a longer duration (a measure of the expected life of a security) tend to be more sensitive to changes in interest rates, usually making them more volatile than securities or funds with shorter durations. The longer-term performance of most bond funds has benefited from capital gains in part resulting from an extended period of declining interest rates. In the event interest rates increase, these capital gains should not be expected to recur.
The Portfolio may be subject to various risks in addition to those described above. Some of these risks may include, but are not limited to, the following: credit risk, market risk, issuer risk, liquidity risk, derivatives risk, mortgage risk, leveraging risk and management risk. A complete description of these risks is contained in the Portfolio’s prospectus. The Portfolio may use derivative instruments for hedging purposes or as part of an investment strategy. Use of these instruments may involve certain costs and risks such as liquidity risk, interest rate risk, market risk, credit risk, management risk and the risk that the Portfolio could not close out a position when it would be most advantageous to do so. A Portfolio investing in derivatives could lose more than the principal amount invested in these instruments.
On the performance summary page in this Semiannual Report, the Total Return Investment Performance table measures performance assuming that all dividend and capital gain distributions were reinvested.
An investment in the Portfolio is not a deposit of a bank and is not guaranteed or insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. It is possible to lose money on investments in the Portfolio.
PIMCO has adopted written proxy voting policies and procedures (“Proxy Policy”) as required by Rule 206(4)-6 under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940. The Proxy Policy has been adopted by the Trust as the policies and procedures that PIMCO will use when voting proxies on behalf of the Portfolio. Copies of the written Proxy Policy and the factors that PIMCO may consider in determining how to vote proxies for the Portfolio, and information about how the Portfolio voted proxies relating to portfolio securities held during the most recent twelve-month period ended June 30, are available without charge, upon request, by calling the Trust at 1-866-746-2606 and on the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) website at http://www.sec.gov.
The Portfolio files its complete schedule of portfolio holdings with the SEC for the first and third quarters of each fiscal year on Form N-Q. A copy of the Trust’s Form N-Q is available on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov and may be reviewed and copied at the SEC’s Public Reference Room in Washington D.C. Information on the operation of the Public Reference Room may be obtained by calling 1-800-SEC-0330.
PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust is distributed by Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC, 2187 Atlantic Street, Stamford, CT 06902.

The following disclosure provides important information regarding the Portfolio’s Expense Example (“Example” or “Expense Example”), which appears in this Semiannual Report. Please refer to this information when reviewing the Expense Example for the Portfolio.
Example
As a shareholder of the Portfolio, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs and (2) ongoing costs, including advisory and administrative fees; distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees (Administrative Class only); and other Portfolio expenses. The Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Portfolio and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Expense Example does not reflect any fees or other expenses imposed by the Variable Contracts. If it did, the expenses reflected in the Expense Examples would be higher. The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period indicated, which is from January 1, 2006 to June 30, 2006.
Actual Expenses
The information in the table under the heading “Actual Performance” provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in these columns, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.60), then multiply the result by the number in the appropriate column for your share class, in the row titled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The information in the table under the heading “Hypothetical Performance (5% return before expenses)” provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Portfolio’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Portfolio’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Portfolio and other portfolios. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other portfolios.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs. Therefore, the information under the heading “Hypothetical Performance (5% return before expenses)” is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different portfolios. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.
The expense ratio may vary period to period because of various factors, such as an increase in expenses not covered by the advisory and administrative fees (such as expenses of the trustees and their counsel or litigation expense).
Portfolio Benchmark
Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index represents securities that are taxable, and dollar denominated. The index covers the U.S. investment grade fixed rate bond market, with index components for government and corporate securities, mortgage pass-through securities, and asset-backed securities. These major sectors are subdivided into more specific indices that are calculated and reported on a regular basis. It is not possible to invest directly in this index.

Portfolio Insights
» | | The PIMCO Total Return Portfolio II seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing under normal circumstances at least 65% of its total assets in a diversified portfolio of Fixed-Income Instruments of varying maturities. |
» | | The Portfolio’s above-benchmark duration detracted from returns as yields rose in the first half of the year. |
» | | An emphasis on short-term maturities detracted from performance as short-term yields rose more than longer-dated yields. The Federal Reserve continued with its tightening policy, sending short-term rates higher while intermediate- and longer-term rates shifted higher. |
» | | An overweight to mortgages contributed to returns as this sector outperformed like-duration Treasuries. |
» | | An underweight to corporate securities detracted from returns as this sector outperformed like-duration Treasuries. |
» | | A tactical allocation to municipal bonds was positive for performance as municipal yields rose less than Treasury yields. |

Notes to Financial Statements
1. ORGANIZATION
The Total Return Portfolio II (the “Portfolio”) is a series of the PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust (the “Trust”). The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “Act”), as amended, as an open-end investment management company organized as a Delaware business trust on October 3, 1997. The Portfolio offers two classes of shares: Institutional and Administrative. Information presented in these financial statements pertains to the Institutional Class of the Portfolio. Certain detailed financial information for the Administrative Class is provided separately and is available upon request. The Trust is designed to be used as an investment vehicle by Separate Accounts of insurance companies that fund variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies and by qualified pension and retirement plans.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Portfolio in the preparation of its financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Security Valuation. Portfolio securities are valued as of the close of regular trading (normally 4:00 p.m., Eastern Time) on each day that the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) is open. Portfolio securities and other assets for which market quotes are readily available are stated at market value. Market value is generally determined on the basis of last reported sales prices, or if no sales are reported, based on quotes obtained from a quotation reporting system, established market makers, or pricing services. Fixed-income securities and non-exchange traded derivatives are normally valued on the basis of quotes obtained from brokers and dealers or pricing services. Prices obtained from independent pricing services use information provided by market makers or estimates of market values obtained from yield data relating to investments or securities with similar characteristics. Certain fixed-income securities purchased on a delayed-delivery basis are marked to market daily until settlement at the forward settlement date. Short-term investments having a maturity of 60 days or less are generally valued at amortized cost. Exchange traded options, futures and options on futures are valued at the settlement price determined by the relevant exchange.
Investments initially valued in currencies other than the U.S. dollar are converted to the U.S. dollar using exchange rates obtained from pricing services. As a result, the NAV of the Portfolio’s shares may be affected by changes in the value of currencies in relation to the U.S. dollar. The value of securities traded in markets outside the United States or denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar may be affected significantly on a day that the NYSE is closed and an investor is not able to purchase, redeem or exchange shares.
Securities and other assets for which market quotes are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction. The Board of Trustees has adopted methods for valuing securities and other assets in circumstances where market quotes are not readily available, and has delegated to Pacific Investment Management Company LLC (“PIMCO”) the responsibility for applying the valuation methods. In the event that market quotes are not readily available, and the security or asset cannot be valued pursuant to one of the valuation methods, the value of the security or asset will be determined in good faith by the Valuation Committee of the Board of Trustees, generally based upon recommendations provided by PIMCO.
Market quotes are considered not readily available in circumstances where there is an absence of current or reliable market-based data (e.g., trade information, bid/asked information, broker quotes), including where events occur after the close of the relevant market, but prior to the close of regular trading, that materially affect the values of the Portfolio’s securities or assets. In addition, market quotes are considered not readily available when, due to extraordinary circumstances, the exchanges or markets on which the securities trade do not open for trading for the entire day and no other market prices are available. The Board has delegated to PIMCO the responsibility for monitoring significant events that may materially affect the values of the Portfolio’s securities or assets and for determining whether the value of the applicable securities or assets should be re-evaluated in light of such significant events. When the Portfolio uses fair value pricing to determine its NAV, securities will not be priced on the basis of quotations from the primary market in which they are traded, but rather may be priced by another method that the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction believe accurately reflects fair value. The Trust’s policy is intended to result in a calculation of the Portfolio’s NAV that fairly reflects security values as of the time of pricing. However, fair values determined by the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction may not accurately reflect the price that the Portfolio could obtain for a security if it were to dispose of that security as of the time of pricing. Because foreign securities can trade on non-business days, the NAV of the Portfolio may change on days when shareholders will not be able to purchase or redeem shares. The prices used by the Portfolio may differ from the value that would be realized if the securities were sold and the differences could be material to the financial statements.
Securities Transactions and Investment Income. Securities transactions are recorded as of the trade date. Securities purchased or sold on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis may be settled a month or more after the trade date. Realized gains and losses from securities sold are recorded on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Portfolio is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, adjusted for the accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis. Paydown gains and losses on mortgage-related or asset-backed securities are recorded as components of interest income in the Statement of Operations.
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends from net investment income, if any, are declared on each day the Portfolio is open for business and are distributed to shareholders monthly. Net realized capital gains earned by the Portfolio, if any, will be distributed no less frequently than once each year. Most shareholders choose to reinvest their dividends and capital gain distribution in additional shares of the Portfolio.
Income dividends and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP. Differences between tax regulations and GAAP may change the fiscal year when income and capital items are recognized for tax and GAAP purposes. Examples of events that give rise to timing differences include wash sales, straddles, net operating losses and capital loss carryforwards. Further, the character of investment income and capital gains may be different for certain transactions under the two methods of accounting. Examples of characterization differences include the treatment of mortgage paydowns, swaps, foreign currency transactions and contingent debt instruments. As a result, income dividends and capital gain distributions declared during a fiscal period may differ significantly from the net investment income and realized capital gain reported in the Portfolio’s annual financial statements presented under GAAP.
Distributions classified as a tax basis return of capital, if any, are reflected in the accompanying Statements of Changes in Net Assets and have been reclassified to paid in capital. In addition, other amounts have been reclassified between undistributed net investment income, accumulated undistributed net realized gains

or losses and/or paid in capital to more appropriately conform financial accounting to tax characterizations of dividend distributions.
Multiclass Operations. Each class offered by the Portfolio has equal rights as to assets and voting privileges (except that shareholders of a class have exclusive voting rights regarding any matter relating solely to that class of shares). Income and non-class specific expenses of the Portfolio are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative value of settled shares. Realized and unrealized capital gains and losses of the Portfolio are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative net assets of each class. Class specific expenses, where applicable, currently include administrative, distribution and servicing fees.
Federal Income Taxes. The Portfolio intends to qualify as a regulated investment company under sub-chapter M of the Internal Revenue Code and distribute all of its taxable income and net realized gains, if applicable, to shareholders. Accordingly, no provision for Federal income taxes has been made.
Futures Contracts. The Portfolio is authorized to enter into futures contracts. The Portfolio may use futures contracts to manage its exposure to the securities markets or to movements in interest rates and currency values. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are the imperfect correlation between the change in market value of the securities held by the Portfolio and the prices of futures contracts, the possibility of an illiquid market, and the inability of the counterparty to meet the terms of the contract. Futures contracts are valued based upon their quoted daily settlement prices. Upon entering into a futures contract, the Portfolio is required to deposit with its custodian, in a segregated account in the name of the futures broker, an amount of cash or U.S. Government and Agency Obligations in accordance with the initial margin requirements of the broker or exchange. Futures contracts are marked to market daily and an appropriate payable or receivable for the change in value (“variation margin”) is recorded by the Portfolio. Gains or losses are recognized but not considered realized until the contracts expire or are closed. Futures contracts involve, to varying degrees, risk of loss in excess of the variation margin disclosed in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
Guarantees and Indemnifications. Under the Trust’s organizational documents, each Trustee, officer, employee or other agent of the Trust (including the Trust’s investment manager) is indemnified against certain liabilities that may arise out of performance of their duties to the Portfolio. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Portfolio enters into contracts that contain a variety of indemnification clauses. The Portfolio’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Portfolio that have not yet occurred. However, the Portfolio has not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts, and believes the risk of loss to be remote.
Inflation-Indexed Bonds. The Portfolio may invest in inflation-indexed bonds. Inflation-indexed bonds are fixed-income securities whose principal value is periodically adjusted to the rate of inflation. The interest rate on these bonds is generally fixed at issuance at a rate lower than typical bonds. Over the life of an inflation-indexed bond, however, interest will be paid based on a principal value, which is adjusted for inflation. Any increase in the principal amount of an inflation-indexed bond will be included as interest income in the Statement of Operations, even though investors do not receive their principal until maturity.
Options Contracts. The Portfolio may write call and put options on futures, swaps, securities or currencies it owns or in which it may invest. Writing put options tends to increase the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. Writing call options tends to decrease the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. When the Portfolio writes a call or put option, an amount equal to the premium received is recorded as a liability and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the option written. These liabilities are reflected as written options outstanding in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Certain options may be written with premiums to determined on a future date. The premiums for these options are based upon implied volatility parameters at specified terms. Premiums received from writing options which expire are treated as realized gains. Premiums received from writing options which are exercised or closed are added to the proceeds or offset against amounts paid on the underlying future, swap, security or currency transaction to determine the realized gain or loss. The Portfolio as a writer of an option has no control over whether the underlying future, swap, security or currency may be sold (call) or purchased (put) and as a result bears the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the future, swap, security or currency underlying the written option. There is the risk the Portfolio may not be able to enter into a closing transaction because of an illiquid market.
The Portfolio may also purchase put and call options. Purchasing call options tends to increase the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. Purchasing put options tends to decrease the Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. The Portfolio pays a premium which is included in the Portfolio’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an investment and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the option. Premiums paid for purchasing options which expire are treated as realized losses. Certain options may be purchased with premiums to be determined on a future date. The premiums for these options are based upon implied volatility parameters at specified terms. The risk associated with purchasing put and call options is limited to the premium paid. Premiums paid for purchasing options which are exercised or closed are added to the amounts paid or offset against the proceeds on the underlying future, swap, security or currency transaction to determine the realized gain or loss.
Repurchase Agreements. The Portfolio may engage in repurchase transactions. Under the terms of a typical repurchase agreement, the Portfolio takes possession of an underlying debt obligation subject to an obligation of the seller to repurchase, and the Portfolio to resell, the obligation at an agreed-upon price and time. The market value of the collateral must be equal to or exceed at all times the total amount of the repurchase obligations, including interest. Securities purchased under repurchase agreements are reflected as an asset in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Generally, in the event of counterparty default, the Portfolio has the right to use the collateral to offset losses incurred. If the counterparty should default, the Portfolio will seek to sell the securities which it holds as collateral. This could involve procedural costs or delays in addition to a loss on the securities if their value should fall below their repurchase price.
Mortgage-Related and Other Asset-Backed Securities. The Portfolio may invest in mortgage-related or other asset-backed securities. These securities include mortgage pass-through securities, collateralized mortgage obligations (“CMOs”), commercial mortgage-backed securities, mortgage dollar rolls, CMO residuals, stripped mortgage-backed securities (“SMBSs”) and other securities that directly or indirectly represent a participation in, or are secured by and payable from, mortgage loans on real property. The value of some mortgage- or asset-backed securities may be particularly sensitive to changes in prevailing interest rates. Early repayment of principal on some mortgage-related securities may expose a Portfolio to a lower rate of return upon reinvestment of principal. The value of these securities may fluctuate in response to the market’s perception of the creditworthiness of the issuers. Additionally, although mortgages and mortgage-related securities are generally supported by some form of government or private guarantee and/or insurance, there is no assurance that private guarantors or insurers will meet their obligations.
One type of SMBS has one class receiving all of the interest from the mortgage assets (the interest-only, or “IO” class), while the other class will receive all of the principal (the principal-only, or “PO” class). Payments received for IOs are included
| | | | | | |
| | Semiannual Report | | June 30, 2006 | | 13 |
Notes to Financial Statements (Cont.)
in interest income in the Statement of Operations. Because principal will not be received at the maturity of an IO, adjustments are made to the book value of the security on a daily basis until maturity. These adjustments are included in interest income in the Statement of Operations. Payments received for POs are treated as reductions to the cost and par value of the securities.
Swap Agreements. The Portfolio may engage in swap transactions, including, but not limited to, swap agreements on interest rate and credit default to manage its exposure to interest rates and credit risk. In connection with these agreements, securities may be identified as collateral in accordance with the terms of the respective swap agreements.
Interest rate swap agreements involve the exchange by the Portfolio with another party of their respective commitments to pay or receive interest, e.g., an exchange of floating rate payments for fixed rate payments with respect to the notional amount of principal.
Credit default swap agreements involve one party making a stream of payments to another party in exchange for the right to receive a specified return in the event of a default by a third party, typically corporate issues or sovereign issues of an emerging country, on its obligation. The Portfolio may use credit default swaps to provide a measure of protection against defaults of the issuers (i.e., to reduce risk where the Portfolio owns or has exposure to the sovereign issuer) or to take an active long or short position with respect to the likelihood of a particular issuer’s default. As a seller of protection, the Portfolio generally receives an upfront payment or a fixed rate of income throughout the term of the swap provided that there is no credit event. If the Portfolio is a seller of protection and a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement, the Portfolio will pay to the buyer of the protection an amount up to the notional value of the swap and in certain instances take delivery of the security. As the seller, a Portfolio would effectively add leverage to its portfolio because, in addition to its total net assets, the Portfolio would be subject to investment exposure on the notional amount of the swap. As a buyer of protection, a Portfolio generally receives an amount up to the notional value of the swap if a credit event occurs. The treatment of credit default swaps and other swap agreements that provide for contingent, non-periodic, bullet-type payments as “notional principal contracts” for federal income tax purposes is uncertain. Were the Internal Revenue Service to take the position that a credit default swap or other bullet-type swap is not a “notional principal contract” for federal income tax purposes, payments received by the Portfolio from such investments might be subject to income taxes.
Swaps are marked to market daily based upon quotations from market makers and the change in value, if any, is recorded as unrealized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Payments received or made at the beginning of the measurement period are reflected as such in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. These upfront payments are recorded as realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations upon termination or maturity of the swap. A liquidation payment received or made at the termination of the swap is recorded as realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Net periodic payments received or paid by the Portfolio are included as part of realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Entering into these agreements involves, to varying degrees, elements of credit, market and documentation risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Such risks involve the possibility that there will be no liquid market for these agreements, that the counterparty to the agreements may default on its obligation to perform or disagree as to the meaning of contractual terms in the agreements and that there may be unfavorable changes in interest rates.
U.S. Government Agencies or Government-Sponsored Enterprises. Securities issued by U.S. Government agencies or government-sponsored enterprises may not be guaranteed by the U.S. Treasury. The Government National Mortgage Association (“GNMA”), a wholly owned U.S. Government corporation, is authorized to guarantee, with the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government, the timely payment of principal and interest on securities issued by institutions approved by GNMA and backed by pools of mortgages insured by the Federal Housing Administration or guaranteed by the Department of Veterans Affairs. Government-related guarantors (i.e., not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government) include the Federal National Mortgage Association (“FNMA” or “Fannie Mae”) and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“FHLMC” or “Freddie Mac”). Pass-through securities issued by FNMA are guaranteed as to timely payment of principal and interest by FNMA but are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government. FHLMC guarantees the timely payment of interest and ultimate collection of principal, but its participation certificates are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government.
New Accounting Policies. In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes—an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (the “Interpretation”). The Interpretation is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. Management is currently evaluating the application of the Interpretation to the Portfolio and will provide additional information in relation to the Interpretation in the Portfolio’s annual financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2006.
3. FEES, EXPENSES, AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Investment Advisory Fee. PIMCO is a majority-owned subsidiary of Allianz Global Investors of America L.P. (“AGI”), and serves as investment adviser (the “Adviser”) to the Trust, pursuant to an investment advisory contract. The Adviser receives a monthly fee at an annual rate based on average daily net assets of the Portfolio. The Advisory Fee is charged at an annual rate of 0.25%.
Administration Fee. PIMCO serves as administrator (the “Administrator”), and provides administrative services to the Trust for which it receives a monthly administrative fee based on average daily net assets of the Portfolio. As the Administrator, PIMCO bears the costs of various third-party services, including audit, custodial, portfolio accounting, legal, transfer agency and printing costs. The Administration Fee is charged at the annual rate of 0.25%.
Distribution and Servicing Fees. Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC (“AGID”) is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of AGI and serves as the distributor of the Trust’s shares. The Trust is permitted to reimburse AGID on a quarterly basis, out of the Administrative Class assets of the Portfolio in the amount of 0.15% on an annual basis of the average daily net assets of that class, for payments made to financial intermediaries that provide services in connection with the distribution of shares or administration of plans or programs that use Portfolio shares as their funding medium. The effective rate paid to AGID was 0.15% during the current fiscal year.
Expenses. The Trust is responsible for the following expenses: (i) salaries and other compensation of any of the Trust’s executive officers and employees who are not officers, directors, stockholders or employees of PIMCO or its subsidiaries or affiliates; (ii) taxes and governmental fees; (iii) brokerage fees and commissions and other portfolio transaction expenses; (iv) the costs of borrowing money, including interest expenses and bank overdraft charges; (v) fees and expenses of the Trustees who are not “interested persons” of PIMCO or the Trust, and any counsel retained exclusively for their benefit; (vi) extraordinary expenses, including costs of litigation and indemnification expenses; (vii) organization expenses and (viii) any expenses allocated or allocable to a specific class of shares, which include service fees payable with respect to the Administrative Class shares and may include certain other expenses as permitted by the Trust’s Multiple Class Plan adopted pursuant to Rule 18f-3 under the Act and subject to review and approval

by the Trustees. The ratio of expenses to average net assets per share class, as disclosed in the Financial Highlights, may differ from the annual portfolio operating expenses per share class as disclosed in the Prospectus for the reasons set forth above.
For the current period ended June 30, 2006, each unaffiliated Trustee received an annual retainer of $15,000, plus $2,000 for each Board of Trustees quarterly meeting attended, $500 for each Board of Trustees committee meeting attended and $500 for each special board meeting attended, plus reimbursement of related expenses. In addition, each Committee Chair received an additional annual retainer of $500 and each Audit Committee Chair received an additional annual retainer of $1,500. These expenses are allocated on a pro-rata basis to each Portfolio of the Trust according to its respective net assets. The Trust pays no compensation directly to any Trustee or any other officer who is affiliated with the Administrator, all of whom receive remuneration for their services to the Trust from the Administrator or its affiliates.
4. PURCHASES AND SALES OF SECURITIES
The length of time the Portfolio has held a particular security is not generally a consideration in investment decisions. A change in the securities held by the Portfolio is known as “portfolio turnover”. The Portfolio may engage in frequent and active trading of portfolio securities to achieve its investment objective, particularly during periods of volatile market movements. High portfolio turnover (e.g., over 100%) involves correspondingly greater expenses to the Portfolio, including brokerage commissions or dealer mark-ups and other transaction costs on the sale of securities and reinvestments in other securities. Such sales may also result in realization of taxable capital gains, including short-term capital gains (which are generally taxed at ordinary income tax rates). The trading costs and tax effects associated with portfolio turnover may adversely affect the Portfolio’s performance.
Purchases and sales of securities (excluding short-term investments) for the period ended June 30, 2006 were as follows (amounts in thousands):
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

8. REGULATORY AND LITIGATION MATTERS
On June 1, 2004, the Attorney General of the State of New Jersey announced that it had dismissed PIMCO from a complaint filed by the New Jersey Attorney General on February 17, 2004, and that it had entered into a settlement agreement (the “New Jersey Settlement”) with Allianz Global Investors of America L.P. (“AGI”) (formerly known as Allianz Dresdner Asset Management of America L.P.), PEA Capital LLC (an entity affiliated with PIMCO through common ownership) (“PEA”) and Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC (“AGID”), in connection with the same matter. In the New Jersey Settlement, AGI, PEA and AGID neither admitted nor denied the allegations or conclusions of law, but did agree to pay New Jersey a civil fine of $15 million and $3 million for investigative costs and further potential enforcement initiatives against unrelated parties. They also undertook to implement certain governance changes. The complaint relating to the New Jersey Settlement alleged, among other things, that AGI, PEA and AGID had failed to disclose that they improperly allowed certain hedge funds to engage in “market timing” in certain funds. The complaint sought injunctive relief, civil monetary penalties, restitution and disgorgement of profits.
Since February 2004, PIMCO, AGI, PEA, AGID, and certain of their affiliates, including the PIMCO Funds, the Allianz Funds (formerly known as PIMCO Funds: Multi-Manager Series), and the Trustees and employees of the PIMCO Funds, have been named as defendants in fifteen lawsuits filed in various jurisdictions. Eleven of those lawsuits concern “market timing,” and they have been transferred to and consolidated for pre-trial proceedings in a multi-district litigation proceeding in the
| | | | | | |
| | Semiannual Report | | June 30, 2006 | | 15 |
Notes to Financial Statements (Cont.)
U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland; the other four lawsuits concern “revenue sharing” and have been consolidated into a single action in the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut. The lawsuits have been commenced as putative class actions on behalf of investors who purchased, held or redeemed shares of the various series of the PIMCO Funds and the Allianz Funds during specified periods, or as derivative actions on behalf of the PIMCO Funds and Allianz Funds.
The market timing actions in the District of Maryland generally allege that certain hedge funds were allowed to engage in “market timing” in certain of the PIMCO Funds and the Allianz Funds and this alleged activity was not disclosed. Pursuant to tolling agreements entered into with the derivative and class action plaintiffs, PIMCO, the Trustees, and certain employees of PIMCO who were previously named as defendants have all been dropped as defendants in the market timing actions; the plaintiffs continue to assert claims on behalf of the shareholders of the PIMCO Funds or on behalf of the PIMCO Funds themselves against other defendants. By order dated November 3, 2005, the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland granted the PIMCO Funds’ motion to dismiss claims asserted against it in a consolidated amended complaint where the PIMCO Funds were named, in the complaint, as a nominal defendant. The revenue sharing action in the District of Connecticut generally alleges that fund assets were inappropriately used to pay brokers to promote the PIMCO Funds and Allianz Funds including directing fund brokerage transactions to such brokers, and that such alleged arrangements were not fully disclosed to shareholders. On August 11, 2005 the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut conducted a hearing on defendants’ motion to dismiss the consolidated amended complaint in the revenue sharing action but has not yet ruled on the motion to dismiss. The market timing and revenue sharing lawsuits seek, among other things, unspecified compensatory damages plus interest and, in some cases, punitive damages, the rescission of investment advisory contracts, the return of fees paid under those contracts and restitution.
Under Section 9(a) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“1940 Act”), if the New Jersey Settlement or any of the lawsuits described above were to result in a court injunction against AGI, PEA, AGID and/or their affiliates, PIMCO could, in the absence of exemptive relief granted by the SEC, be barred from serving as an investment adviser, and AGID could be barred from serving as principal underwriter, to any registered investment company, including the Portfolios of the Trust. In connection with an inquiry from the SEC concerning the status of the New Jersey Settlement under Section 9(a), PEA, AGID, AGI and certain of their affiliates (including PIMCO) (together, the “Applicants”) have sought exemptive relief from the SEC under Section 9(c) of the 1940 Act. The SEC has granted the Applicants a temporary exemption from the provisions of Section 9(a) with respect to the New Jersey Settlement until the earlier of (i) September 13, 2006 and (ii) the date on which the SEC takes final action on their application for a permanent order. There is no assurance that the SEC will issue a permanent order.
Two nearly identical class action civil complaints have been filed in August 2005, in the Northern District of Illinois Eastern Division alleging that the plaintiffs each purchased and sold a 10-year Treasury note futures contract and suffered damages from an alleged shortage when PIMCO held both physical and futures positions in 10-year Treasury notes for its client accounts. The two actions have been consolidated into one action, and the two separate complaints have been replaced by a consolidated complaint. PIMCO is a named defendant, and the PIMCO Funds have been added as a defendant, to the consolidated action. PIMCO strongly believes the complaint (and any consolidated complaint filed hereafter) is without merit and intends to vigorously defend itself.
Certain Portfolios of the Trust were recently served in an adversary proceeding brought by the Official Committee of Asbestos Claimants of G-I Holdings, Inc. in G-I Holdings, Inc.’s bankruptcy in the District of New Jersey. PIMCO was previously named in this lawsuit and remains a defendant. The plaintiff seeks to recover for the bankruptcy estate assets that were transferred by the predecessor entity of G-I Holdings, Inc. to a wholly-owned subsidiary in 1994. The subsidiary has since issued notes, of which certain Portfolios of the Trust are alleged to be holders. The complaint alleges that in 2000, more than two hundred noteholders—including certain Portfolios of the Trust—were granted a second priority lien on the assets of the subsidiary in exchange for their consent to a refinancing transaction and the granting of a first priority lien to the lending banks. The plaintiff is seeking invalidation of the lien in favor of the noteholders and/or the value of the lien.
It is possible that these matters and/or other developments resulting from these matters could result in increased fund redemptions or other adverse consequences to the Portfolios. However, PIMCO and AGID believe that these matters are not likely to have a material adverse effect on the Portfolios or on PIMCO’s or AGID’s ability to perform their respective investment advisory or distribution services relating to the Portfolios.

Chairman’s Letter
Dear PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust Shareholder:
It is our pleasure to present to you the semiannual report for the PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust covering the six-month period ended June 30, 2006.
Highlights of the global bond markets during the six-month period included:
| n | | Most fixed-income sectors lost ground during the first half of 2006, as concern about accelerating inflation and central bank tightening pushed interest rates higher worldwide. The benchmark Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index (which includes Treasury, Investment-Grade Corporate, and Residential Mortgage-Backed Securities) returned -0.72% for the first six months of the year. On June 30, the benchmark ten-year Treasury yielded 5.14%, 0.75% higher than at the start of the year. The U.S. yield curve remained flat as shorter-maturity yields rose by a comparable amount. |
| n | | The Federal Reserve tightened four times during the reporting period, bringing the Federal Funds Rate to 5.25%. The increase near the end of the period was the Federal Reserve’s 17th consecutive rate hike since the start of its tightening cycle in 2004. The Federal Reserve was not alone, as central banks in Europe, India, and China tightened credit in unison for the first time since 2000. The Bank of Japan, whose zero-interest-rate policy has flooded global markets with liquidity, looked set to reverse this policy in the coming months. |
In these pages please find a more complete Portfolio review as it relates to financial-market activities, as well as details about total-return investment performance for the six-month reporting period. Thank you for the trust you have placed in us. We will continue to work diligently to meet your investment needs.
Sincerely,

Brent R. Harris
Chairman, PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust

Important Information About the Portfolio
PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust (the “Trust”) is an open-end management investment company currently consisting of nineteen separate investment portfolios, including All Asset Portfolio, Foreign Bond Portfolio (U.S. Dollar-Hedged), Global Bond Portfolio (Unhedged), High Yield Portfolio and Low Duration Portfolio (each a “Portfolio” and collectively, the “Portfolios”). The Portfolios are only available as a funding vehicle under variable life insurance policies or variable annuity contracts issued by insurance companies (“Variable Contracts”). Individuals may not purchase shares of a Portfolio directly. Shares of a Portfolio also may be sold to qualified pension and retirement plans outside of the separate account context.
We believe that bond funds have an important role to play in a well diversified investment portfolio. It is important to note, however, that in an environment where interest rates may trend upward, rising rates would negatively impact the performance of most bond funds, and fixed-income securities held by a Portfolio are likely to decrease in value. The price volatility of fixed-income securities can also increase during periods of rising interest rates resulting in increased losses to a Portfolio.
Bond funds and individual bonds with a longer duration (a measure of the expected life of a security) tend to be more sensitive to changes in interest rates, usually making them more volatile than securities or funds with shorter durations. The longer-term performance of most bond funds has benefited from capital gains in part resulting from an extended period of declining interest rates. In the event interest rates increase, these capital gains should not be expected to recur.
The All Asset Portfolio is a “fund of funds,” which is a term used to describe mutual funds that pursue their investment objective by investing in other mutual funds instead of investing directly in stocks or bonds of other issuers. Under normal circumstances, the Portfolio invests substantially all of its assets in Institutional Class shares of PIMCO Funds, an affiliated open-end investment company, except the All Asset and All Asset All Authority Funds (“Underlying Funds”).
The cost of investing in the All Asset Portfolio will generally be higher than the cost of investing in a mutual fund that invests directly in individual stocks and bonds. By investing in the All Asset Portfolio, an investor will indirectly bear fees and expenses charged by the Underlying Funds in addition to the Portfolio’s direct fees and expenses.
Among the principal risks of investing in the All Asset Portfolio are allocation risk, Underlying Fund risk and issuer non-diversification risk. The Portfolio also is indirectly subject to the risks of the Underlying Funds, which are described below.
Certain Portfolios and Underlying Funds may be subject to various risks in addition to the investment rate risk described above. Some of these risks may include, but are not limited to, the following: credit risk, high yield risk, market risk, issuer risk, variable dividend risk, liquidity risk, derivatives risk, commodity risk, equity risk, mortgage risk, non-U.S. investment risk, real estate risk, emerging markets risk, currency risk, issuer non-diversification risk, leveraging risk, smaller company risk, management risk, California state specific risk, New York state specific risk, tax risk and index risk . A complete description of these risks is contained in the Portfolios’ and Underlying Funds’ prospectuses. Certain Portfolios and Underlying Funds may use derivative instruments for hedging purposes or as part of an investment strategy. Use of these instruments may involve certain costs and risks such as liquidity risk, interest rate risk, market risk, credit risk, management risk and the risk that the Portfolios or Underlying Funds could not close out a position when it would be most advantageous to do so. A Portfolio or Underlying Fund investing in derivatives could lose more than the principal amount invested in these instruments. Investing in non-U.S. securities may entail risk due to non-U.S. economic and political developments; this risk may be increased when investing in emerging markets. High-yield bonds typically have a lower credit rating then other bonds. Lower-rated bonds generally involve a greater risk to principal than higher-rated bonds.
On each individual Portfolio Summary page in this Semiannual Report, the Average Annual Total Return table measures performance assuming that all dividend and capital gain distributions were reinvested. An investment in a Portfolio is not a deposit of a bank and is not guaranteed or insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. It is possible to lose money on investments in the Portfolios.
PIMCO has adopted written proxy voting policies and procedures (“Proxy Policy”) as required by Rule 206(4)-6 under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940. The Proxy Policy has been adopted by the Trust as the policies and procedures that PIMCO will use when voting proxies on behalf of the Portfolios. Copies of the written Proxy Policy and the factors that PIMCO may consider in determining how to vote proxies for the Portfolios, and information about how the Portfolios voted proxies relating to portfolios securities held during the most recent twelve-month period ended June 30, are available without charge, upon request, by calling the Trust at
1-866-746-2606 and on the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) website at http://www.sec.gov.
The Portfolios file their complete schedule of portfolio holdings with the SEC for the first and third quarters of each fiscal year on Form N-Q. A copy of the Trust’s Form N-Q is available on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov and may be reviewed and copied at the SEC’s Public Reference Room in Washington D.C. Information on the operation of the Public Reference Room may be obtained by calling 1-800-SEC-0330.
PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust is distributed by Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC, 2187 Atlantic Street, Stamford, CT 06902.

The following disclosure provides important information regarding the Portfolio’s Expense Example (“Example” or “Expense Example”), which appears in this Semiannual Report. Please refer to this information when reviewing the Expense Example for the Portfolio.
Example
As a shareholder of the Portfolio, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs and (2) ongoing costs, including advisory and administrative fees; distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees (Administrative Class, Advisor Class and Class M only); and other Portfolio expenses. The Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Portfolio and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Expense Example does not reflect any fees or other expenses imposed by the Variable Contracts. If it did, the expenses reflected in the Expense Examples would be higher. The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period indicated, which is from January 1, 2006 to June 30, 2006.
Actual Expenses
The information in the table under the heading “Actual Performance” provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in these columns, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.60), then multiply the result by the number in the appropriate column for your share class, in the row titled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The information in the table under the heading “Hypothetical Performance (5% return before expenses)” provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Portfolio’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Portfolio’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Portfolio and other portfolios. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other portfolios.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs. Therefore, the information under the heading “Hypothetical Performance (5% return before expenses)” is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different portfolios. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.
The expense ratio may vary period to period because of various factors, such as an increase in expenses not covered by the advisory and administrative fees (such as expenses of the trustees and their counsel or litigation expense).
Portfolio Benchmark
Lehman Brothers U.S. TIPS: 1-10 Year is an unmanaged index market comprised of U.S. Treasury Inflation Linked securities having a maturity of at least 1 year and less than 10 years. It is not possible to invest directly in such an unmanaged index. The CPI + 500 Basis Points benchmark is created by adding 5% to the annual percentage change in the Consumer Price Index (“CPI”). This index reflects non-seasonally adjusted returns. The CPI is an unmanaged index representing the rate of inflation of the U.S. consumer prices as determined by the US Department of Labor Statistics. There can be no guarantee that the CPI or other indexes will reflect the exact level of inflation at any given time.
JPMorgan Government Bond Indices Global Ex-U.S. Index Hedged and Global FX NY Index Unhedged in USD is an unmanaged index market representative of the total return performance in U.S. dollars of major non-U.S. bond markets. It is not possible to invest directly in such an unmanaged index.
Merrill Lynch US High Yield, BB-B Rated Constrained Index tracks the performance of BB-B Rated US Dollar-denominated corporate bonds publicly issued in the US domestic market. Qualifying bonds are capitalization-weighted provided the total allocation to an individual issuer (defined by Bloomberg tickers) does not exceed 2%. Issuers that exceed the limit are reduced to 2% and the face value of each of their bonds is adjusted on a pro-rata basis.
The Merrill Lynch 1-3 Year Treasury Index is an unmanaged index that tracks the performance of the direct sovereign debt of the U.S. Government having a maturity of at least 1 year and less than 3 years. It is not possible to invest directly in the index.

Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so the Portfolio shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. The Portfolio’s performance does not reflect the deduction of additional charges and expenses imposed in connection with investing in Variable Contracts, which will reduce returns. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. Performance data current to the most recent month-end is available by calling (800) 927-4648.

Expense Example | | Actual Performance | | | | Hypothetical Performance |
| | | | | | (5% return before expenses) |
Beginning Account Value (01/31/06) | | $ | 1,000.00 | | | | $ | 1,000.00 |
Ending Account Value (06/30/06) | | $ | 979.70 | | | | $ | 1,018.82 |
Expenses Paid During Period† | | $ | 1.84 | | | | $ | 1.88 |
† Expenses are equal to the Portfolio’s Institutional Class annualized expense ratio of 0.45%, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 151/365 (to reflect the period since the Portfolio’s Institutional Class share commenced operations on 01/31/06). The expense ratio excludes the expenses of the Underlying Funds, which based upon the allocation of the Portfolio’s assets among the Underlying Funds are indirectly borne by the shareholders of the Portfolio. The Underlying Fund Expenses for the Portfolio are estimated at 0.63%. Overall fees and expenses of investing in the Portfolio will be higher because the example does not reflect Variable Contract fees and expenses.

Portfolio Insights
» | | The PIMCO All Asset Portfolio seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing under normal circumstances substantially all of its assets in Institutional Class Shares of the Underlying Funds (i.e., any of the PIMCO Funds, except the All Asset and All Asset All Authority Funds). |
» | | Significant exposure to the Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities (“TIPS”) asset class detracted significantly from tactical asset allocation alpha due to the asset class, particularly longer dated TIPS, posting negative returns. |
» | | Less than optimal exposure to commodities detracted from performance, as the Dow Jones AIG Commodity Index returned 3.58% over the period. |
» | | Less than optimal exposure to Real Estate Investment Trusts (“REITs”) detracted from performance, as the Dow Jones Wilshire REIT Index gained 14.40% for the period. |
» | | Significant exposure to lower duration instruments was positive for performance, as lower duration assets tend to outperform assets with longer duration in a rising interest rate environment. Exposure to the Floating Rate Income Fund provided positive returns. |
» | | Significant exposure to the Developing Local Markets Fund and emerging market currencies added to performance with the fund returning 4.34%. |
» | | Exposure to the High Yield Fund was positive due to coupon selection providing solid returns for the period. |

Portfolio Insights
» | | The PIMCO Foreign Bond Portfolio (U.S. Dollar-Hedged) seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing under normal circumstances at least 80% of its assets in Fixed-Income Instruments of issuers located outside the United States, representing at least three foreign countries, which may be represented by futures contracts (including related options) with respect to such securities, and options on such securities. |
» | | An underweight to Euroland duration and a curve flattening bias added to returns as these yields rose on stronger than expected economic data and hawkish European Central Bank comments. |
» | | An overweight to U.S. duration and an emphasis on shorter maturities detracted from returns, as rates rose and the yield curve continued to flatten amid concern that the Federal Reserve would extend its tightening cycle. |
» | | An emphasis on mortgage-backed securities was positive for performance as mortgages outperformed like-duration Treasuries amidst declining volatility and heightened investor demand. |
» | | A focus on the short-to-intermediate portion of the U.K. curve was negative for returns as U.K. long-dated gilts outperformed on firmer demand for longer dated assets. |
» | | A long position in the Euro and the Yen versus the U.S. dollar was positive for returns as the Euro and the Yen appreciated on improving growth and expectations of monetary tightening. |

Portfolio Insights
» | | The PIMCO High Yield Portfolio seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing under normal circumstances at least 80% of its assets in a diversified portfolio of high-yield securities rated below investment grade but rated at least Caa (subject to a maximum of 5% of total assets in securities rated Caa) by Moody’s or S&P, or, if unrated, determined by PIMCO to be of comparable quality. |
» | | An underweight to BB-rated bonds versus the index contributed to relative performance, as these issues underperformed B-rated bonds by about 1.50%. |
» | | An overweight to the automotive sector helped performance as these bonds significantly outperformed the high-yield market. |
» | | As cable/pay TV bonds outperformed the high- yield market, an overweight to the sector benefited the Portfolio. |
» | | Security selection in the utility sector was positive as electric generation companies led the overall sector. |
» | | As telecom bonds underperformed the market, an overweight to the sector negatively impacted the Portfolio’s performance. |
» | | As the energy sector was among the worst performing broad market sectors in the first half of the year, an overweight to this industry category detracted from returns. |
» | | Modest exposure to emerging market sovereign bonds, which underperformed high yield by about 3.75%, hurt performance. |

Portfolio Insights
» | | The PIMCO Low Duration Portfolio seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 65% of its total assets in a diversified portfolio of Fixed-Income Securities of varying maturities. |
» | | Duration and maturity structure were the most significant detractors from the Portfolio’s performance during the six-month period ended June 30, 2006. |
» | | The Portfolio’s above index duration detracted from returns as concerns about accelerating inflation and more monetary tightening pushed interest rates higher. |
» | | The Portfolio’s broader-than-index maturity structure with a curve steepening bias detracted from returns as the yield curve continued to flatten. |
» | | A mortgage emphasis added to returns as this sector outperformed Treasuries on a like-duration basis. Security selection within the mortgage sector also enhanced performance. |
» | | Investment grade and high-yield corporate bonds were positive as these issues benefited from a strengthening economy and investors’ search for extra yield. |
» | | Minimal exposure to high-quality emerging markets was slightly positive for performance as emerging markets bonds benefited from continued improvement in credit fundamentals and investors’ demand for higher-yielding securities early in the period. |

+ If the Portfolio is a seller of protection and a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement, the Portfolio will pay to the buyer of the protection an amount up to the notional value of the swap and in certain instances, take delivery of the security. As a buyer of protection, the Portfolio will generally receive from the seller of protection an amount up to the notional amount of the swap if a credit event occurs. | |

Notes to Financial Statements
1. ORGANIZATION
Each of the Portfolios (hereinafter referred to individually as a “Portfolio” and collectively as the “Portfolios”) discussed in this report is a series of the PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust (the “Trust”). The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “Act”), as amended, as an open-end investment management company organized as a Delaware business trust on October 3, 1997. The Portfolios may offer up to four classes of shares: Institutional, Administrative, Advisor and Class M. Information presented in these financial statements pertains to the different share classes of five of the Portfolios of the Trust. Certain detailed financial information for other share class (the “Other Classes”) is provided separately and is available upon request. The Trust is designed to be used as an investment vehicle by Separate Accounts of insurance companies that fund variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies and by qualified pension and retirement plans.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Trust in the preparation of its financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Security Valuation. Investments in Funds within the PIMCO Funds are valued at their net assets value as reported by the Underlying Funds. Portfolio securities are valued as of the close of regular trading (normally 4:00 p.m., Eastern Time) on each day that the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) is open. Portfolio securities and other assets for which market quotes are readily available are stated at market value. Market value is generally determined on the basis of last reported sales prices, or if no sales are reported, based on quotes obtained from a quotation reporting system, established market makers, or pricing services. Fixed-income securities and non-exchange traded derivatives are normally valued on the basis of quotes obtained from brokers and dealers or pricing services. Prices obtained from independent pricing services use information provided by market makers or estimates of market values obtained from yield data relating to investments or securities with similar characteristics. Certain fixed-income securities purchased on a delayed-delivery basis are marked to market daily until settlement at the forward settlement date. Short-term investments, which mature in 60 days or less, are generally valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. Exchange traded options, futures and options on futures are valued at the settlement price determined by the relevant exchange.
Investments initially valued in currencies other than the U.S. dollar are converted to the U.S. dollar using exchange rates obtained from pricing services. As a result, the NAV of a Portfolio’s shares may be affected by changes in the value of currencies in relation to the U.S. dollar. The value of securities traded in markets outside the United States or denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar may be affected significantly on a day that the NYSE is closed and an investor is not able to purchase, redeem or exchange shares.
Securities and other assets for which market quotes are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction. The Board of Trustees has adopted methods for valuing securities and other assets in circumstances where market quotes are not readily available, and has delegated to Pacific Investment Management Company LLC (“PIMCO”) the responsibility for applying the valuation methods. In the event that market quotes are not readily available, and the security or asset cannot be valued pursuant to one of the valuation methods, the value of the security or asset will be determined in good faith by the Valuation Committee of the Board of Trustees, generally based upon recommendations provided by PIMCO.
Market quotes are considered not readily available in circumstances where there is an absence of current or reliable market-based data (e.g., trade information, bid/asked information, broker quotes), including where events occur after the close of the relevant market, but prior to the close of regular trading, that materially affect the values of a Portfolio’s securities or assets. In addition, market quotes are considered not readily available when, due to extraordinary circumstances, the exchanges or markets on which the securities trade do not open for trading for the entire day and no other market prices are available. The Board has delegated to PIMCO the responsibility for monitoring significant events that may materially affect the values of a Portfolio’s securities or assets and for determining whether the value of the applicable securities or assets should be re-evaluated in light of such significant events. When a Portfolio use fair value pricing to determine its NAV, securities will not be priced on the basis of quotations from the primary market in which they are traded, but rather may be priced by another method that the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction believe accurately reflects fair value. The Trust’s policy is intended to result in a calculation of a Portfolio’s NAV that fairly reflects security values as of the time of pricing. However, fair values determined by the Board of Trustees or persons acting at their direction may not accurately reflect the price that Portfolio could obtain for a security if it were to dispose of that security as of the time of pricing. Because foreign securities can trade on non-business days, the NAV of a Portfolio may change on days when shareholders will not be able to purchase or redeem shares. The prices used by a Portfolio may differ from the value that would be realized if the securities were sold and the differences could be material to the financial statements.
Securities Transactions and Investment Income. Securities transactions are recorded as of the trade date. Securities purchased or sold on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis may be settled a month or more after the trade date. Realized gains and losses from securities sold are recorded on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as a Portfolio is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, adjusted for the accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis. Paydown gains and losses on mortgage-related or asset-backed securities are recorded as components of interest income in the Statements of Operations.
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends from net investment income, if any, of each Portfolio, except the All Asset Portfolio, are declared on each day the Portfolio is open for business and are distributed to shareholders monthly. Dividends from net investment income, if any, of the All Asset Portfolio are declared and distributed to shareholders quarterly. Net realized capital gains earned by a Portfolio, if any, will be distributed no less frequently than once each year. Most shareholders choose to reinvest their dividends and capital gain distribution in additional shares of the Portfolio.
Income dividends and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP. Differences between tax regulations and GAAP may change the fiscal year when income and capital items are recognized for tax and GAAP purposes. Examples of events that give rise to timing differences include wash sales, straddles, net operating losses and capital loss carryforwards. Further, the character of investment income and capital gains may be different for certain transactions under the two methods of accounting. Examples of characterization differences include the treatment of mortgage paydowns, swaps, foreign currency transactions and contingent debt instruments. As a result, income dividends and capital gain distributions declared during a fiscal period may differ significantly from the net investment income and realized capital gain reported in a Portfolio’s annual financial statements presented under GAAP.
Distributions classified as a tax basis return of capital, if any, are reflected in the accompanying Statements of Changes in Net Assets and have been reclassified to
| | | | | | |
| | Semiannual Report | | June 30, 2006 | | 39 |
Notes to Financial Statements (Cont.)
paid in capital. In addition, other amounts have been reclassified between undistributed net investment income, accumulated undistributed net realized gains or losses and/or paid in capital to more appropriately conform financial accounting to tax characterizations of dividend distributions.
Multiclass Operations. Each class offered by a Portfolio has equal rights as to assets and voting privileges (except that shareholders of a class have exclusive voting rights regarding any matter relating solely to that class of shares). Income and non-class specific expenses of each Portfolio, except the All Asset Portfolio, are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative value of settled shares. Realized and unrealized capital gains and losses of a Portfolio are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative net assets of each class. Class specific expenses, where applicable, currently include administrative, distribution and servicing fees.
Bridge Debt Commitments. At the period ended June 30, 2006, the High Yield Portfolio had $2,008,182 in commitments outstanding to fund high-yield bridge debt. The Portfolio is entitled to a fee upon the expiration of the commitment period. The bridge debt terms approximate market rates at the time the commitment is entered into.
Loan Participant and Assignments. Certain Portfolio may invest in direct debt instruments which are interests in amounts owned by corporate, governmental, or other borrowers to lenders or lending syndicates. A Portfolio’s investments in loans may be in the form of participations in loans or assignments of all or a portion of loans from third parties. A loan is often administered by a bank or other financial institution (the “lender”) that acts as agent for all holders. Then agent administers the terms of the loan, as specified in the loan agreement. When investing in a loan participation, a Portfolio has the right to receive payments of principal, interest and any fees to which it is entitled only from the lender selling the loan agreement and only upon receipt by the lender of payments from the borrower. A Portfolio generally has no right to enforce compliance with the terms of the loan agreement with the borrower. As a result, a Portfolio may be subject to the credit of both the borrower and the lender that is selling the loan agreement. When a Portfolio purchases assignments from lenders it acquires direct rights against the borrower on the loan. At the end of the period, the High Yield Portfolio had unfunded loan commitments of $2,008,182.
Delayed-Delivery Transactions. Certain Portfolios may purchase or sell securities on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis. These transactions involve a commitment by a Portfolio to purchase or sell securities for a predetermined price or yield, with payment and delivery taking place beyond the customary settlement period. When delayed-delivery purchases are outstanding, a Portfolio will designate liquid assets in an amount sufficient to meet the purchase price. When purchasing a security on a delayed-delivery basis, a Portfolio assumes the rights and risks of ownership of the security, including the risk of price and yield fluctuations, and takes such fluctuations into account when determining its net asset value. A Portfolio may dispose of or renegotiate a delayed-delivery transaction after it is entered into, and may sell when-issued securities before they are delivered, which may result in a capital gain or loss. When a Portfolio has sold a security on a delayed-delivery basis, a Portfolio does not participate in future gains and losses with respect to the security.
Federal Income Taxes. Each Portfolio qualifies and intends to qualify as a regulated investment company and distribute all of its taxable income and net realized gains, if applicable, to shareholders. Accordingly, no provision for Federal income taxes has been made.
To the extent the All Asset Portfolio invest in the CommodityRealReturn Strategy Portfolio® (the “CRRS Portfolio”), an Underlying Fund, this Portfolio may be subject to the risks associated with commodity-linked derivative instruments.
One of the requirements for favorable tax treatment as a regulated investment company under the Code is that the CRRS Portfolio derive at least 90 percent of its gross income from certain qualifying sources of income. On December 16, 2005, the IRS issued Revenue Ruling 2006-01 which held that income from commodity index-linked swaps was not qualifying income. At the time Revenue Ruling 2006-01 was issued, the CRRS Portfolio invested primarily in commodity index-linked swaps to gain exposure to the commodity markets. Revenue Ruling 2006-01 provided an effective date of June 30, 2006, after which time the CRRS Portfolio’s ability to utilize commodity index-linked swaps as part of its investment strategy will be limited to a maximum of 10 percent of its gross income.
On June 2, 2006, the IRS issued Revenue Ruling 2006-31 which extends the effective date for Revenue Ruling 2006-01 from June 30, 2006 until September 30, 2006. Revenue Ruling 2006-31 also clarifies the holding of Revenue Ruling 2006-01 by providing that income from alternative instruments (such as certain commodity index-linked notes) that create commodity exposure may be considered qualifying income under the Code. In addition, the IRS has also issued private letter rulings to at least two other funds in which the IRS specifically concluded that income from certain commodity index-linked notes is qualifying income. The CRRS Portfolio has also obtained an opinion of counsel with respect to the treatment of income from commodity index-linked notes as qualifying income under the Code. Such an opinion is not binding upon the IRS.
Based on Revenue Ruling 2006-31, IRS guidance and advice of counsel, the CRRS Portfolio will seek to gain exposure to the commodity markets primarily through investments in commodity indexlinked notes. The use of commodity index-linked notes involves specific risks. The CRRS Portfolio will continue to seek ways to make use of other commodity-linked derivative instruments, including swap agreements, commodity options, futures and options on futures, and alternative structures within the Portfolio to gain exposure to commodity markets. Please refer to the prospectus for the Separate Account and Variable Contract for information regarding federal income tax treatment of distributions to the Separate Account.
Foreign Currency. The accounting records of the Portfolios are maintained in U.S. dollar. The market values of foreign securities, currency holdings and other assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollar based on the current exchange rates each business day. Fluctuations in the value of currency holdings and other assets and liabilities resulting from changes in exchange rates are recorded as unrealized foreign currency gains or losses. Realized gains or losses and unrealized appreciation or depreciation on investment securities and income and expenses are translated on the respective dates of such transactions. The effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on investments in securities are not segregated in the Statements of Operations from the effects of changes in market prices of those securities, but are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss on investment securities.

Forward Currency Transactions. Certain Portfolios may enter into forward currency contracts in connection with settling planned purchases or sales of securities, to hedge the currency exposure associated with some or all of a Portfolio’s securities or as a part of an investment strategy. A forward currency contract is an agreement between two parties to buy and sell a currency at a set price on a future date. The market value of a forward currency contract fluctuates with changes in forward currency exchange rates. Forward currency contracts are marked to market daily and the change in value is recorded by a Portfolio as an unrealized gain or loss. Realized gains or losses equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed are recorded upon delivery or receipt of the currency or, if a forward currency contract is offset by entering into another forward currency contract with the same broker, upon settlement of the net gain or loss. These contracts may involve market risk in excess of the unrealized gain or loss reflected in a Portfolio’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities. In addition, a Portfolio could be exposed to risk if the counterparties are unable to meet the terms of the contracts or if the value of the currency changes unfavorably to the U.S. dollar.
Futures Contracts. Certain Portfolios are authorized to enter into futures contracts. A Portfolio may use futures contracts to manage its exposure to the securities markets or to movements in interest rates and currency values. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are the imperfect correlation between the change in market value of the securities held by a Portfolio and the prices of futures contracts, the possibility of an illiquid market, and the inability of the counterparty to meet the terms of the contract. Futures contracts are valued based upon their quoted daily settlement prices. Upon entering into a futures contract, a Portfolio is required to deposit with its custodian, in a segregated account in the name of the futures broker, an amount of cash or U.S. Government and Agency Obligations in accordance with the initial margin requirements of the broker or exchange. Futures contracts are marked to market daily and an appropriate payable or receivable for the change in value (“variation margin”) is recorded by the Portfolio. Gains or losses are recognized but not considered realized until the contracts expire or are closed. Futures contracts involve, to varying degrees, risk of loss in excess of the variation margin disclosed in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities.
Guarantees and Indemnifications. Under the Trust’s organizational documents, each Trustee, officer, employee or other agent of the Trust (including the Trust’s investment manager) is indemnified against certain liabilities that may arise out of performance of their duties to the Portfolios. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Portfolios enter into contracts that contain a variety of indemnification clauses. The Portfolios’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Portfolios that have not yet occurred. However, the Portfolios have not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts, and believes the risk of loss to be remote.
Inflation-Indexed Bonds. Certain Portfolios may invest in inflation-indexed bonds. Inflation-indexed bonds are fixed-income securities whose principal value is periodically adjusted to the rate of inflation. The interest rate on these bonds is generally fixed at issuance at a rate lower than typical bonds. Over the life of an inflation-indexed bond, however, interest will be paid based on a principal value, which is adjusted for inflation. Any increase in the principal amount of an inflation-indexed bond will be included as interest income in the Statements of Operations, even though investors do not receive their principal until maturity.
Options Contracts. Certain Portfolios may write call and put options on futures, swaps, securities or currencies it owns or in which it may invest. Writing put options tends to increase a Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. Writing call options tends to decrease a Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. When a Portfolio writes a call or put option, an amount equal to the premium received is recorded as a liability and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the option written. These liabilities are reflected as written options outstanding in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Certain options may be written with premiums to determined on a future date. The premiums for these options are based upon implied volatility parameters at specified terms. Premiums received from writing options which expire are treated as realized gains. Premiums received from writing options which are exercised or closed are added to the proceeds or offset against amounts paid on the underlying future, swap, security or currency transaction to determine the realized gain or loss. A Portfolio as a writer of an option has no control over whether the underlying future, swap, security or currency may be sold (call) or purchased (put) and as a result bears the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the future, swap, security or currency underlying the written option. There is the risk a Portfolio may not be able to enter into a closing transaction because of an illiquid market.
Certain Portfolios may also purchase put and call options. Purchasing call options tends to increase a Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. Purchasing put options tends to decrease a Portfolio’s exposure to the underlying instrument. A Portfolio pays a premium which is included in a Portfolio’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an investment and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the option. Certain options may be purchased with premiums to be determined on a future date. The premiums for these options are based upon implied volatility parameters at specified terms. Premiums paid for purchasing options which expire are treated as realized losses. The risk associated with purchasing put and call options is limited to the premium paid. Premiums paid for purchasing options which are exercised or closed are added to the amounts paid or offset against the proceeds on the underlying future, swap, security or currency transaction to determine the realized gain or loss.
Payment In-Kind Securities. Certain Portfolios may invest in payment in-kind securities. Payment in-kind securities (PIKs) give the issuer the option at each interest payment date of making interest payments in either cash or additional debt securities. Those additional debt securities usually have the same term, including maturity dates and interest rates, and associated risks as the original bonds. The daily market quotations of the original bonds include the accrued interest (referred to as a dirty price) and require a pro rata adjustment from interest receivable to the unrealized appreciation or depreciation on investment in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities.
Repurchase Agreements. Certain Portfolios may engage in repurchase transactions. Under the terms of a typical repurchase agreement, a Portfolio takes possession of an underlying debt obligation subject to an obligation of the seller to repurchase, and a Portfolio to resell, the obligation at an agreed-upon price and time. The market value of the collateral must be equal to or exceed at all times the total amount of the repurchase obligations, including interest. Securities purchased under repurchase agreements are reflected as an asset in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Generally, in the event of counterparty default, a Portfolio has the right to use the collateral to offset losses incurred. If the counterparty should default, a Portfolio will seek to sell the securities which it holds as collateral. This could involve procedural costs or delays in addition to a loss on the securities if their value should fall below their repurchase price.
Restricted Securities. Certain Portfolios are permitted to invest in securities that are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale. These securities generally may be resold in transactions exempt from registration or to the public if the securities are registered. Disposal of these securities may involve time-consuming negotiations and expenses, and prompt sale at an acceptable price may be difficult.
Mortgage-Related and Other Asset-Backed Securities. Certain Portfolios may invest in mortgage-related or other asset-backed securities. These securities
| | | | | | |
| | Semiannual Report | | June 30, 2006 | | 41 |
Notes to Financial Statements (Cont.)
include mortgage pass-through securities, collateralized mortgage obligations (“CMOs”), commercial mortgage-backed securities, mortgage dollar rolls, CMO residuals, stripped mortgage-backed securities (“SMBSs”) and other securities that directly or indirectly represent a participation in, or are secured by and payable from, mortgage loans on real property. The value of some mortgage- or asset-backed securities may be particularly sensitive to changes in prevailing interest rates. Early repayment of principal on some mortgage-related securities may expose a Portfolio to a lower rate of return upon reinvestment of principal. The value of these securities may fluctuate in response to the market’s perception of the creditworthiness of the issuers. Additionally, although mortgages and mortgage-related securities are generally supported by some form of government or private guarantee and/or insurance, there is no assurance that private guarantors or insurers will meet their obligations.
One type of SMBS has one class receiving all of the interest from the mortgage assets (the interest-only, or “IO” class), while the other class will receive all of the principal (the principal-only, or “PO” class). Payments received for IOs are included in interest income in the Statements of Operations. Because principal will not be received at the maturity of an IO, adjustments are made to the book value of the security on a daily basis until maturity. These adjustments are included in interest income in the Statements of Operations. Payments received for POs are treated as reductions to the cost and par value of the securities.
Swap Agreements. Certain Portfolios may engage in swap transactions, including, but not limited to, swap agreements on interest rate and credit default to manage its exposure to interest rates and credit risk. In connection with these agreements, securities may be identified as collateral in accordance with the terms of the respective swap agreements.
Interest rate swap agreements involve the exchange by a Portfolio with another party of their respective commitments to pay or receive interest, e.g., an exchange of floating rate payments for fixed rate payments with respect to the notional amount of principal.
Credit default swap agreements involve one party making a stream of payments to another party in exchange for the right to receive a specified return in the event of a default by a third party, typically corporate issues or sovereign issues of an emerging country, on its obligation. A Portfolio may use credit default swaps to provide a measure of protection against defaults of the issuers (i.e., to reduce risk where a Portfolio owns or has exposure to the sovereign issuer) or to take an active long or short position with respect to the likelihood of a particular issuer’s default. As a seller of protection, a Portfolio generally receives an upfront payment or a fixed rate of income throughout the term of the swap provided that there is no credit event. If a Portfolio is a seller of protection and a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement, a Portfolio will pay to the buyer of the protection an amount up to the notional value of the swap and in certain instances take delivery of the security. As the seller, a Portfolio would effectively add leverage to its portfolio because, in addition to its total net assets, a Portfolio would be subject to investment exposure on the notional amount of the swap. As a buyer of protection, a Portfolio generally receives an amount up to the notional value of the swap if a credit event occurs. The treatment of credit default swaps and other swap agreements that provide for contingent, non-periodic, bullet-type payments as “notional principal contracts” for federal income tax purposes is uncertain. Were the Internal Revenue Service to take the position that a credit default swap or other bullet-type swap is not a “notional principal contract” for federal income tax purposes, payments received by the Portfolio from such investments might be subject to income taxes.
Swaps are marked to market daily based upon quotations from market makers and the change in value, if any, is recorded as unrealized gain or loss in the Statements of Operations. Payments received or made at the beginning of the measurement period are reflected as such in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. These upfront payments are recorded as realized gain or loss in the Statements of Operations upon termination or maturity of the swap. A liquidation payment received or made at the termination of the swap is recorded as realized gain or loss in the Statements of Operations. Net periodic payments received or paid by a Portfolio are included as part of realized gain or loss in the Statements of Operations. Entering into these agreements involves, to varying degrees, elements of credit, market and documentation risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Such risks involve the possibility that there will be no liquid market for these agreements, that the counterparty to the agreements may default on its obligation to perform or disagree as to the meaning of contractual terms in the agreements and that there may be unfavorable changes in interest rates.
U.S. Government Agencies or Government-Sponsored Enterprises. Securities issued by U.S. Government agencies or government-sponsored enterprises may not be guaranteed by the U.S. Treasury. The Government National Mortgage Association (“GNMA”), a wholly owned U.S. Government corporation, is authorized to guarantee, with the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government, the timely payment of principal and interest on securities issued by institutions approved by GNMA and backed by pools of mortgages insured by the Federal Housing Administration or guaranteed by the Department of Veterans Affairs. Government-related guarantors (i.e., not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government) include the Federal National Mortgage Association (“FNMA” or “Fannie Mae”) and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“FHLMC” or “Freddie Mac”). Pass-through securities issued by FNMA are guaranteed as to timely payment of principal and interest by FNMA but are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government. FHLMC guarantees the timely payment of interest and ultimate collection of principal, but its participation certificates are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government.
Underlying Funds. The Portfolio may invest in any or all of the Underlying Funds, but will not normally invest in every Underlying Fund at any particular time. The Underlying Funds are the Institutional Class shares of the PIMCO Funds, an affiliated open-end investment company, except All Asset and All Asset All Authority Funds. Though it is anticipated that the All Asset Portfolio will not currently invest in the European StocksPLUS® Total Return Strategy, Far East (ex-Japan) StocksPLUS® Total Return Strategy, Japanese StocksPLUS® TR Strategy, StocksPLUS® Municipal-Backed and StocksPLUS® TR Short Strategy Funds, the Portfolio may invest in these Funds in the future, without shareholder approval, at the discretion of the Portfolio’s asset allocation sub-adviser.
New Accounting Policies. In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes—an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (the “Interpretation”). The Interpretation is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. Management is currently evaluating the application of the Interpretation to the Portfolio and will provide additional information in relation to the Interpretation in the Portfolio’s annual financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2006.

Administration Fee for all Portfolios, except the Foreign Bond (U.S. Dollar-Hedged), Global Bond (Unhedged) and High Yield Portfolios, is charged at the annual rate of 0.25%. The Foreign Bond (U.S. Dollar-Hedged) and Global Bond (Unhedged) Portfolios are charged at an annual rate of 0.50%. The High Yield Portfolio is charged at an annual rate of 0.35%.
Distribution and Servicing Fees. Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC (“AGID”) is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of AGI and serves as the distributor of the Trust’s shares. The Trust is permitted to reimburse AGID on a quarterly basis, out of the Administrative Class assets of a Portfolio in the amount of 0.15% on an annual basis of the average daily net assets of that class, for payments made to financial intermediaries that provide services in connection with the distribution of shares or administration of plans or programs that use Portfolio shares as their funding medium. The effective rate paid to AGID was 0.15% during the current fiscal year.
Expenses. The Trust is responsible for the following expenses: (i) salaries and other compensation of any of the Trust’s executive officers and employees who are not officers, directors, stockholders or employees of PIMCO or its subsidiaries or affiliates; (ii) taxes and governmental fees; (iii) brokerage fees and commissions and other portfolio transaction expenses; (iv) the costs of borrowing money, including interest expenses and bank overdraft charges; (v) fees and expenses of the Trustees who are not “interested persons” of PIMCO or the Trust, and any counsel retained exclusively for their benefit; (vi) extraordinary expenses, including costs of litigation and indemnification expenses; (vii) organization expenses and (viii) any expenses allocated or allocable to a specific class of shares, which include service fees payable with respect to the Administrative Class shares and may include certain other expenses as permitted by the Trust’s Multiple Class Plan adopted pursuant to Rule 18f-3 under the Act and subject to review and approval by the Trustees. The ratio of expenses to average net assets per share class, as disclosed in the Financial Highlights, may differ from the annual portfolio operating expenses per share class as disclosed in the Prospectus for the reasons set forth above.
PIMCO has agreed to waive a portion of its administrative fees to the extent that the payment of the All Asset Portfolio’s pro rata share of organization expenses and Trustee fees cause the actual expense ratio to rise above the rates disclosed in the then current prospectus plus 0.49 basis points as set forth below (calculated as a percentage of the Portfolio’s average daily net assets attributable to each class):
Administrative Class 0.60%
PIMCO may be reimbursed for these waived amounts in future periods, not to exceed thirty-six months. Expenses that have been waived and may still be reimbursed by the Administrator, to the extent the All Asset Portfolio’s annualized total portfolio operating expenses plus the amount so reimbursed does not exceed the operating expense limitation, are as follows (amounts in thousands):

In addition, each Committee Chair received an additional annual retainer of $500 and each Audit Committee Chair received an additional annual retainer of $1,500. These expenses are allocated on a pro-rata basis to each Portfolio of the Trust according to its respective net assets. The Trust pays no compensation directly to any Trustee or any other officer who is affiliated with the Administrator, all of whom receive remuneration for their services to the Trust from the Administrator or its affiliates.
4. PURCHASES AND SALES OF SECURITIES
The length of time a Portfolio has held a particular security is not generally a consideration in investment decisions. A change in the securities held by a Portfolio is known as “portfolio turnover”. Each Portfolio may engage in frequent and active trading of portfolio securities to achieve its investment objective, particularly during periods of volatile market movements. High portfolio turnover (e.g., over 100%) involves correspondingly greater expenses to a Portfolio, including brokerage commissions or dealer mark-ups and other transaction costs on the sale of securities and reinvestments in other securities. Such sales may also result in realization of taxable capital gains, including short-term capital gains (which are generally taxed at ordinary income tax rates). The trading costs and tax effects associated with portfolio turnover may adversely affect a Portfolio’s performance.
Purchases and sales of securities (excluding short-term investments) for the period ended June 30, 2006 were as follows (amounts in thousands):

9. REGULATORY AND LITIGATION MATTERS
On June 1, 2004, the Attorney General of the State of New Jersey announced that it had dismissed PIMCO from a complaint filed by the New Jersey Attorney General on February 17, 2004, and that it had entered into a settlement agreement (the “New Jersey Settlement”) with Allianz Global Investors of America L.P. (“AGI”) (formerly known as Allianz Dresdner Asset Management of America L.P.), PEA Capital LLC (an entity affiliated with PIMCO through common ownership) (“PEA”) and Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC (“AGID”), in connection with the same matter. In the New Jersey Settlement, AGI, PEA and AGID neither admitted nor denied the allegations or conclusions of law, but did agree to pay New Jersey a civil fine of $15 million and $3 million for investigative costs and further potential enforcement initiatives against unrelated parties. They also undertook to implement certain governance changes. The complaint relating to the New Jersey Settlement alleged, among other things, that AGI, PEA and AGID had failed to disclose that they improperly allowed certain hedge funds to engage in “market timing” in certain funds. The complaint sought injunctive relief, civil monetary penalties, restitution and disgorgement of profits.
Since February 2004, PIMCO, AGI, PEA, AGID, and certain of their affiliates, including the PIMCO Funds, the Allianz Funds (formerly known as PIMCO Funds: Multi-Manager Series), and the Trustees and employees of the PIMCO Funds, have been named as defendants in fifteen lawsuits filed in various jurisdictions. Eleven of those lawsuits concern “market timing,” and they have been transferred to and consolidated for pre-trial proceedings in a multi-district litigation proceeding in the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland; the other four lawsuits concern “revenue sharing” and have been consolidated into a single action in the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut. The lawsuits have been commenced as putative class actions on behalf of investors who purchased, held or redeemed shares of the various series of the PIMCO Funds and the Allianz Funds during specified periods, or as derivative actions on behalf of the PIMCO Funds and Allianz Funds.
The market timing actions in the District of Maryland generally allege that certain hedge funds were allowed to engage in “market timing” in certain of the PIMCO Funds and the Allianz Funds and the and this alleged activity was not disclosed. Pursuant to tolling agreements entered into with the derivative and class action plaintiffs, PIMCO, the Trustees, and certain employees of PIMCO who were previously named as defendants have all been dropped as defendants in the market timing actions; the plaintiffs continue to assert claims on behalf of the shareholders of the PIMCO Funds or on behalf of the PIMCO Funds themselves against other defendants. By order dated November 3, 2005, the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland granted the PIMCO Funds’ motion to dismiss claims asserted against it in a consolidated amended complaint where the PIMCO Funds were named, in the complaint, as a nominal defendant. The revenue sharing action in the District of Connecticut generally alleges that fund assets were inappropriately used to pay brokers to promote the PIMCO Funds and Allianz Funds , including directing fund brokerage transactions to such brokers, and that such alleged arrangements were not fully disclosed to shareholders. On August 11, 2005 the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut conducted a hearing on defendants’ motion to dismiss the consolidated amended complaint in the revenue sharing action but has not yet ruled on the motion to dismiss. The market timing and revenue sharing lawsuits seek, among other things, unspecified compensatory damages plus interest and, in some cases, punitive damages, the rescission of investment advisory contracts, the return of fees paid under those contracts and restitution.
Under Section 9(a) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“1940 Act”), if the New Jersey Settlement or any of the lawsuits described above were to result in a court injunction against AGI, PEA, AGID and/or their affiliates, PIMCO could, in the absence of exemptive relief granted by the SEC, be barred from serving as an investment adviser, and AGID could be barred from serving as principal underwriter, to any registered investment company, including the Portfolios of the Trust. In connection with an inquiry from the SEC concerning the status of the New Jersey Settlement under Section 9(a), PEA, AGID, AGI and certain of their affiliates (including PIMCO) (together, the “Applicants”) have sought exemptive relief from the SEC under Section 9(c) of the 1940 Act. The SEC has granted the Applicants a temporary exemption from the provisions of Section 9(a) with respect to the New Jersey Settlement until the earlier of (i) September 13, 2006 and (ii) the date on which the SEC takes final action on their application for a permanent order. There is no assurance that the SEC will issue a permanent order.
Two nearly identical class action civil complaints have been filed in August 2005, in the Northern District of Illinois Eastern Division alleging that the plaintiffs each purchased and sold a 10-year Treasury note futures contract and suffered damages from an alleged shortage when PIMCO held both physical and futures positions in 10-year Treasury notes for its client accounts. The two actions have been consolidated into one action, and the two separate complaints have been replaced by a consolidated complaint. PIMCO is a named defendant, and the PIMCO Funds have been added as a defendant, to the consolidated action. PIMCO strongly believes the complaint (and any consolidated complaint filed hereafter) is without merit and intends to vigorously defend itself.
Certain Portfolios of the Trust were recently served in an adversary proceeding brought by the Official Committee of Asbestos Claimants of G-I Holdings, Inc. in G-I Holdings, Inc.’s bankruptcy in the District of New Jersey. PIMCO was previously named in this lawsuit and remains a defendant. The plaintiff seeks to recover for the bankruptcy estate assets that were transferred by the predecessor entity of G-I Holdings, Inc. to a wholly-owned subsidiary in 1994. The subsidiary has since issued notes, of which certain Portfolios of the Trust are alleged to be holders. The complaint alleges that in 2000, more than two hundred noteholders—including certain Portfolios of the Trust—were granted a second priority lien on the assets of the subsidiary in exchange for their consent to a refinancing transaction and the granting of a first priority lien to the lending banks. The plaintiff is seeking invalidation of the lien in favor of the noteholders and/or the value of the lien.
It is possible that these matters and/or other developments resulting from these matters could result in increased fund redemptions or other adverse consequences to the Portfolios. However, PIMCO and AGID believe that these matters are not likely to have a material adverse effect on the Portfolios or on PIMCO’s or AGID’s ability to perform their respective investment advisory or distribution services relating to the Portfolios.
