3 OPPENHEIMER PORTFOLIO SERIES CONSERVATIVE INVESTOR FUND
During the one-year reporting period ended January 31, 2014, the Fund’s Class A shares (without sales charge) produced a total return of 3.75%. During a period in which equities outperformed fixed-income securities, the Fund outperformed the Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index’s return of 0.12%, but underperformed the S&P 500 Index’s return of 21.52%.
MARKET OVERVIEW
Accommodative monetary policies on the part of central banks in the U.S., Europe and Japan, combined with an improving economic outlook, resulted in a rally among equities and higher-yielding bonds over the first four months of 2013. At the same time, yields of U.S. government securities remained near historical lows due to the Federal Reserve’s (the “Fed’s”) massive bond buying program. These developments drove financial markets higher through the early spring of 2013. At
that time, economic data appeared to confirm that the United States, Europe and Japan had engineered a sustained economic rebound, but investors responded negatively to disappointing economic data from China, India, Brazil, and other emerging markets. The ensuing “flight to quality” toward traditional safe havens produced sharp dislocations in emerging equity, fixed- income and currency markets. In late May,

remarks by Fed chairman Ben Bernanke were widely interpreted as a signal that U.S. monetary policymakers would begin to back away from their quantitative easing program sooner than expected, sparking heightened volatility in financial markets throughout the world. However, market conditions generally stabilized over the summer of 2013. In October, the U.S. Congress managed to reach a bipartisan agreement to raise the national debt ceiling, and did so well ahead of the potential default deadline. While the Fed refrained from reducing its monthly bond purchases in September, in December the Central Bank announced that it would reduce its monthly bond purchases by $10 billion, from $85 billion to $75 billion, starting in January 2014. The Fed also continued to hold short-term interest rates at very low levels throughout the reporting period. Against this backdrop, equities generally performed well over 2013, with fixed-income producing muted results. While concerns that ongoing downturns in the emerging markets might dampen the U.S. economic recovery resulted in renewed volatility in stock and bond markets over January 2014, corporate earnings growth generally remained strong, and the unemployment rate fell.
FUND REVIEW
The Fund had its largest allocation to underlying fixed-income funds at period end. The Fund’s largest holding, Oppenheimer Core Bond Fund, benefited performance this reporting period. During
the reporting period, the underlying fund maintained limited exposure to government bonds and favored corporate bonds, mortgage-backed securities (“MBS”) and structured products. This positioning benefited the underlying fund’s performance during the period, as higher-yielding fixed income sectors outperformed the performance of U.S. Treasuries. The underlying fund outperformed its benchmarks, the Barclays Credit Index, Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index and the Citigroup Broad Investment Grade Bond Index. The Fund’s next largest underlying fixed-income funds were Oppenheimer Limited-Term Government Fund, Oppenheimer International Bond Fund and Oppenheimer Master Loan Fund, LLC. Oppenheimer Limited-Term Government Fund produced a muted return during the reporting period, as U.S. Government bonds lagged higher-yielding fixed-income sectors and equities. An allocation to MBS did benefit the underlying fund this reporting period. Relative to its benchmarks, the underlying fund outperformed the Barclays U.S. Government Bond Index, but underperformed the Barclays U.S. 1-3 Year Government Bond Index. Oppenheimer International Bond Fund produced a negative return this reporting period. As it has for some time, the underlying fund had a large allocation to emerging market debt. Specifically, the underlying fund’s position in emerging market local currency debt hurt its performance when volatility in the emerging markets climbed amid reactions to the potential for reduced levels of global
5 OPPENHEIMER PORTFOLIO SERIES CONSERVATIVE INVESTOR FUND
liquidity. Meanwhile, an allocation into European credit was additive to performance. The underlying fund did outperform its Reference Index, which is a customized weighted index comprised of 50% of the Citigroup Non-U.S. Dollar World Government Bond Index, 30% of the JPMorgan Government Bond Index - Emerging Markets Global Diversified, and 20% of the JPMorgan Emerging Markets Bond Index Global Diversified. Oppenheimer Master Loan Fund, LLC, which invests primarily in senior loans, benefited as senior floating-rate bank loans performed well during the reporting period. The underlying fund outperformed its benchmark, the Credit Suisse Leveraged Loan Index.
The largest underlying domestic equity holdings of the Fund were Oppenheimer Value Fund and Oppenheimer Capital Appreciation Fund. These two underlying funds provided the strongest contribution to the Fund’s return on an absolute basis this period. Oppenheimer Value Fund and Oppenheimer Capital Appreciation Fund received their best absolute results from securities in the financials sector and health care sector, respectively. However, they underperformed their benchmarks, the S&P 500 Index and the Russell 1000 Value Index (for Oppenheimer Value Fund), and the S&P 500 Index and the Russell 1000 Growth Index (for Oppenheimer Capital Appreciation Fund). The Fund had a smaller allocation to Oppenheimer Main Street Small- & Mid-Cap Fund, which also
performed positively. The underlying fund’s absolute performance was driven by certain stocks within the health care sector. However, on a relative basis, the underlying fund underperformed its benchmark, the Russell 2500 Index.
The Fund’s largest foreign equity funds at period end and its strongest contributors to performance in the space were Oppenheimer International Growth Fund and Oppenheimer International Value Fund. Oppenheimer International Growth Fund’s performance was driven largely by holdings in the information technology sector. Oppenheimer International Value Fund received its best absolute performance from stocks in the consumer discretionary sector this reporting period. Both of these underlying funds outperformed their benchmarks, the MSCI All Country World ex-U.S. Index and the MSCI EAFE Index.
The Fund’s smaller allocation to alternative funds had a slight negative effect on performance this reporting period. Oppenheimer Gold & Special Minerals Fund, Oppenheimer Master Inflation Protected Securities Fund, LLC, and Oppenheimer Commodity Strategy Total Return Fund produced negative returns this period. Gold stocks and gold bullion remained out of favor among investors over the reporting period, mainly due to their preference for companies that are more leveraged to recovering U.S. and global economies. Although Oppenheimer Gold & Special Minerals Fund underperformed its
6 OPPENHEIMER PORTFOLIO SERIES CONSERVATIVE INVESTOR FUND
benchmark, the MSCI World Index, it performed in line with other gold and precious metals indices, such as the Philadelphia Gold & Silver Index. Oppenheimer Master Inflation Protected Securities Fund, LLC, invests primarily in Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities (TIPS), whose performance is closely correlated to U.S. inflation rates. Inflation continued to be tame as the Consumer Price Index (“CPI”) annual inflation rate was 1.6% before seasonal adjustment for the one-year period ended January 31, 2014, according to data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics at period end. This underlying fund performed in line with its benchmark, the Barclays U.S. Treasury Inflation Protected Securities Index, during the reporting period. Oppenheimer Commodity Strategy Total Return Fund was hurt as a variety of factors pressured commodity prices throughout the year, including the Fed’s taper talk starting in the spring, the relative stability of the U.S. dollar, a rising equity market, low inflation, a change in China’s growth priorities and fears about slowing emerging market demand. The underlying fund outperformed its benchmark, the Dow Jones-UBS Commodity Index Total Return, during the reporting period.
Oppenheimer Global Multi Strategies Fund and Oppenheimer Real Estate Fund were underlying alternative funds that produced positive absolute results for the Fund this reporting period. Oppenheimer Global Multi Strategies Fund seeks to offer the benefit of
hedge fund-like strategies (Global Macro, Equity Market Neutral, Volatility, Fixed Income Alternative) with the transparency, pricing and daily liquidity of a mutual fund. The underlying fund’s Global Macro strategy, which involves tactical positioning in broad asset and/or sector classes, helped drive its performance. Relative to its benchmarks, the underlying fund outperformed the Barclays Global Aggregate Bond Index, but underperformed the S&P 500 Index. Oppenheimer Real Estate Fund performed well early in the reporting period as the economic outlook continued to improve, and fears surrounded the fiscal cliff drama in Washington abated. While the Fed’s discussion of tapering did result in volatility for the underlying fund this period, it maintained a positive return for the overall reporting period. The underlying fund outperformed its benchmark, the FTSE NAREIT Equity REIT Index, during the reporting period.

Performance data quoted represents past performance, which does not guarantee future results. The investment return and principal value of an investment in the Fund will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance quoted. Returns do not consider capital gains or income taxes on an individual’s investment. For performance data current to the most recent month-end, visit oppenheimerfunds.com or call 1.800.CALL OPP (225.5677). Fund returns include changes in share price, reinvested distributions, and the applicable sales charge: for Class A shares, the current maximum initial sales charge of 5.75%; for Class B shares, the contingent deferred sales charge of 5% (1-year) and 2% (5-year); and for Class C and N shares, the contingent deferred sales charge of 1% for the 1-year period. There is no sales charge for Class Y shares. Because Class B shares convert to Class A shares 72 months after purchase, the 10-year return for Class B shares uses Class A performance for the period after conversion.
The Fund’s performance is compared to the performance of the Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index and the S&P 500 Index. The Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index is an unmanaged, broad-based index of investment grade corporate debt. The S&P 500 Index is an unmanaged index of large-capitalization equity securities that is a measure of the general domestic stock market. The indices are unmanaged and cannot be purchased directly by investors. Index performance includes reinvestment of income, but does not reflect transaction costs, fees, expenses or taxes. Index performance is shown for illustrative purposes only as a benchmark for the Fund’s performance, and does not predict or depict performance of the Fund. The Fund’s performance reflects the effects of the Fund’s business and operating expenses.
The Fund’s investment strategy and focus can change over time. The mention of specific fund holdings does not constitute a recommendation by OppenheimerFunds, Inc. or its affiliates.
Before investing in any of the Oppenheimer funds, investors should carefully consider a fund’s investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses. Fund

Shares of Oppenheimer funds are not deposits or obligations of any bank, are not guaranteed by any bank, are not insured by the FDIC or any other agency, and involve investment risks, including the possible loss of the principal amount invested.

Fund Expenses. As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, which may include sales charges (loads) on purchase payments, contingent deferred sales charges on redemptions; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and service fees; and other Fund expenses. These examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The examples are based on an investment of $1,000.00 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire 6-month period ended January 31, 2014.
Actual Expenses. The first section of the table provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section for the class of shares you hold, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expense that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000.00 (for example, an $8,600.00 account value divided by $1,000.00 = 8.60), then multiply the result by the number in the first section under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes. The second section of the table provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio for each class of shares, and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year for each class before expenses, which is not the 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 Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example for the class of shares you hold with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as front-end or contingent deferred sales charges (loads), or a $12.00 fee imposed annually on accounts valued at less than $500.00 (subject to exceptions described in the Statement of Additional Information). Therefore, the “hypothetical” section of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS January 31, 2014 |
1. Significant Accounting Policies
Oppenheimer Portfolio Series (the “Trust”) is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as a diversified open-end management investment company. Conservative Investor Fund (the “Fund”) is a series of the Trust whose investment objective is to seek current income with a secondary objective of long-term growth of capital. The Fund normally invests in a diversified portfolio of Oppenheimer mutual funds (individually, an “Underlying Fund” and collectively, the “Underlying Funds”). The Fund’s investment adviser is OFI Global Asset Management, Inc. (“OFI Global” or the “Manager”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of OppenheimerFunds, Inc. (“OFI” or the “Sub-Adviser”). The Manager has entered into a sub-advisory agreement with OFI.
The Fund offers Class A, Class C, Class N and Class Y shares, and previously offered Class B shares for new purchase through June 29, 2012. Subsequent to that date, no new purchases of Class B shares are permitted, however reinvestment of dividend and/or capital gain distributions and exchanges of Class B shares into and from other Oppenheimer funds will be allowed. Class A shares are sold at their offering price, which is normally net asset value plus a front-end sales charge. Class C and Class N shares are sold, and Class B shares were sold, without a front-end sales charge but may be subject to a contingent deferred sales charge (“CDSC”). Class N shares are sold only through retirement plans. Retirement plans that offer Class N shares may impose charges on those accounts. Class Y shares are sold to certain institutional investors or intermediaries without either a front-end sales charge or a CDSC, however, the intermediaries may impose charges on their accountholders who beneficially own Class Y shares. All classes of shares have identical rights and voting privileges with respect to the Fund in general and exclusive voting rights on matters that affect that class alone. Earnings, net assets and net asset value per share may differ due to each class having its own expenses, such as transfer and shareholder servicing agent fees and shareholder communications, directly attributable to that class. Class A, B, C and N shares have separate distribution and/or service plans under which they pay fees. Class Y shares do not pay such fees. Class B shares will automatically convert to Class A shares 72 months after the date of purchase.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund.
Risks of Investing in the Underlying Funds. Each of the Underlying Funds in which the Fund invests has its own investment risks, and those risks can affect the value of the Fund’s investments and therefore the value of the Fund’s shares. To the extent that the Fund invests more of its assets in one Underlying Fund than in another, the Fund will have greater exposure to the risks of that Underlying Fund.
Investment in Oppenheimer Institutional Money Market Fund. The Fund is permitted to invest daily available cash balances in an affiliated money market fund. The Fund may invest the available cash in Class E shares of Oppenheimer Institutional Money Market Fund (“IMMF”) to seek current income while preserving liquidity. IMMF is a registered open-end management investment company, regulated as a money market fund under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Manager is the investment adviser of IMMF, and the
27 OPPENHEIMER PORTFOLIO SERIES CONSERVATIVE INVESTOR FUND
| ||||
1. Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) |
Sub-Adviser provides investment and related advisory services to IMMF. When applicable, the Fund’s investment in IMMF is included in the Statement of Investments. Shares of IMMF are valued at their net asset value per share. As a shareholder, the Fund is subject to its proportional share of IMMF’s Class E expenses, including its management fee.
Investment in Oppenheimer Master Funds. The Fund is permitted to invest in entities sponsored and/or advised by the Manager or an affiliate. Certain of these entities in which the Fund invests are mutual funds registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 that expect to be treated as partnerships for tax purposes, specifically Oppenheimer Master Loan Fund, LLC and Oppenheimer Master Inflation Protected Securities Fund, LLC (the “Master Funds”). Each Master Fund has its own investment risks, and those risks can affect the value of the Fund’s investments and therefore the value of the Fund’s shares. To the extent that the Fund invests more of its assets in one Master Fund than in another, the Fund will have greater exposure to the risks of that Master Fund.
The investment objective of Oppenheimer Master Loan Fund, LLC is to seek income. The investment objective of Oppenheimer Master Inflation Protected Securities Fund, LLC is to seek total return. The Fund’s investments in the Master Funds are included in the Statement of Investments. The Fund recognizes income and gain/(loss) on its investments in each Master Fund according to its allocated pro-rata share, based on its relative proportion of total outstanding Master Fund shares held, of the total net income earned and the net gain/(loss) realized on investments sold by the Master Funds. As a shareholder, the Fund is subject to its proportional share of the Master Funds’ expenses, including their management fee. The Manager will waive fees and/or reimburse Fund expenses in an amount equal to the indirect management fees incurred through the Fund’s investment in the Master Funds.
Allocation of Income, Expenses, Gains and Losses. Income, expenses (other than those attributable to a specific class), gains and losses are allocated on a daily basis to each class of shares based upon the relative proportion of net assets represented by such class. Operating expenses directly attributable to a specific class are charged against the operations of that class.
Federal Taxes. The Fund intends to comply with provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all of its investment company taxable income, including any net realized gain on investments not offset by capital loss carryforwards, if any, to shareholders. Therefore, no federal income or excise tax provision is required. The Fund files income tax returns in U.S. federal and applicable state jurisdictions. The statute of limitations on the Fund’s tax return filings generally remain open for the three preceding fiscal reporting period ends.
The tax components of capital shown in the following table represent distribution requirements the Fund must satisfy under the income tax regulations, losses the Fund may be able to offset against income and gains realized in future years and unrealized appreciation or depreciation of securities and other investments for federal income tax purposes.

2. During the fiscal year ended January 31, 2014, the Fund utilized $4,663,623 of capital loss carryforward to offset capital gains realized in that fiscal year.
3. During the fiscal year ended January 31, 2013, the Fund did not utilize any capital loss carryforward.
Net investment income (loss) and net realized gain (loss) may differ for financial statement and tax purposes. The character of dividends and distributions made during the fiscal year from net investment income or net realized gains may differ from their ultimate characterization for federal income tax purposes. Also, due to timing of dividends and distributions, the fiscal year in which amounts are distributed may differ from the fiscal year in which the income or net realized gain was recorded by the Fund.
Accordingly, the following amounts have been reclassified for January 31, 2014. Net assets of the Fund were unaffected by the reclassifications.

Trustees’ Compensation. The Fund has adopted an unfunded retirement plan (the “Plan”) for the Fund’s independent trustees. Benefits are based on years of service and fees paid to each trustee during their period of service. The Plan was frozen with respect to adding new participants effective December 31, 2006 (the “Freeze Date”) and existing Plan Participants as of the Freeze Date will continue to receive accrued benefits under the Plan. Active independent trustees as of the Freeze Date have each elected a distribution method with respect to their benefits under the Plan. During the year ended January 31, 2014, the Fund’s projected benefit obligations, payments to retired trustees and accumulated liability were as follows:
Projected Benefit Obligations Increased | $ | 1,461 | ||
Payments Made to Retired Trustees | 1,769 | |||
Accumulated Liability as of January 31, 2014 | 13,899 |
The Board of Trustees has adopted a compensation deferral plan for independent trustees that enables trustees to elect to defer receipt of all or a portion of the annual compensation they are entitled to receive from the Fund. For purposes of determining the amount owed to the Trustee under the plan, deferred amounts are treated as though equal dollar amounts had been invested in shares of the Fund or in other Oppenheimer funds selected by the Trustee. The Fund purchases shares of the funds selected for deferral by the Trustee in amounts equal to his or her deemed investment, resulting in a Fund asset equal to the deferred compensation liability. Such assets are included as a component of “Other” within the asset section of the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Deferral of trustees’ fees under the plan will not affect the net assets of the Fund, and will not materially affect the Fund’s assets, liabilities or net investment income per share. Amounts will be deferred until distributed in accordance with the compensation deferral plan.
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends and distributions to shareholders, which are determined in accordance with income tax regulations and may differ from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gain distributions, if any, are declared and paid annually or at other times as deemed necessary by the Manager.
30 OPPENHEIMER PORTFOLIO SERIES CONSERVATIVE INVESTOR FUND
NOTESTO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Continued | ||||
| ||||
1. Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) |
Investment Income. Dividend distributions received from the Underlying Funds are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Upon receipt of notification from an Underlying Fund, and subsequent to the ex-dividend date, some of the dividend income originally recorded by the Fund may be reclassified as a tax return of capital by reducing the cost basis of the Underlying Fund and/or increasing the realized gain on sales of investments in the Underlying Fund.
Custodian Fees. “Custodian fees and expenses” in the Statement of Operations may include interest expense incurred by the Fund on any cash overdrafts of its custodian account during the period. Such cash overdrafts may result from the effects of failed trades in portfolio securities and from cash outflows resulting from unanticipated shareholder redemption activity. The Fund pays interest to its custodian on such cash overdraft at a rate equal to the 1 Month LIBOR Rate plus 2.00%. The “Reduction to custodian expenses” line item, if applicable, represents earnings on cash balances maintained by the Fund during the period. Such interest expense and other custodian fees may be paid with these earnings.
Security Transactions. Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Realized gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost.
Indemnifications. The Fund’s organizational documents provide current and former trustees and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the Fund. In the normal course of business, the Fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against the Fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.
Other. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
2. Securities Valuation
The Fund calculates the net asset value of its shares based upon the net asset value of the applicable Underlying Fund. For each Underlying Fund, the net asset value per share for a class of shares is determined as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (the “Exchange”), normally 4:00 P.M. Eastern time, on each day the Exchange is open for trading by dividing the value of the Underlying Fund’s net assets attributable to that class by the number of outstanding shares of that class on that day.
The Fund’s Board has adopted procedures for the valuation of the Fund’s securities and has delegated the day-to-day responsibility for valuation determinations under those procedures to the Manager. The Manager has established a Valuation Committee which is responsible for
31 OPPENHEIMER PORTFOLIO SERIES CONSERVATIVE INVESTOR FUND
| ||||
2. Securities Valuation (Continued) |
determining a “fair valuation” for any security for which market quotations are not “readily available.” The Valuation Committee’s fair valuation determinations are subject to review, approval and ratification by the Fund’s Board at its next regularly scheduled meeting covering the calendar quarter in which the fair valuation was determined.
Valuations Methods and Inputs
To determine their net asset values, the Underlying Funds’ assets are valued primarily on the basis of current market quotations as generally supplied by third party portfolio pricing services or by dealers. Such market quotations are typically based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical securities or other observable market inputs.
If a market value or price cannot be determined for a security using the methodologies described above, or if, in the “good faith” opinion of the Manager, the market value or price obtained does not constitute a “readily available market quotation,” or a significant event has occurred that would materially affect the value of the security the security is fair valued either (i) by a standardized fair valuation methodology applicable to the security type or the significant event as previously approved by the Valuation Committee and the Fund’s Board or (ii) as determined in good faith by the Manager’s Valuation Committee. The Valuation Committee considers all relevant facts that are reasonably available, through either public information or information available to the Manager, when determining the fair value of a security. Fair value determinations by the Manager are subject to review, approval and ratification by the Fund’s Board at its next regularly scheduled meeting covering the calendar quarter in which the fair valuation was determined. The methodologies used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those Underlying Funds.
To assess the continuing appropriateness of security valuations, the Manager, or its third party service provider who is subject to oversight by the Manager, regularly compares prior day prices, prices on comparable securities, and sale prices to the current day prices and challenges those prices exceeding certain tolerance levels with the third party pricing service or broker source. For those securities valued by fair valuations, whether through a standardized fair valuation methodology or a fair valuation determination, the Valuation Committee reviews and affirms the reasonableness of the valuations based on such methodologies and fair valuation determinations on a regular basis after considering all relevant information that is reasonably available.
Classifications
Each investment asset or liability of the Fund is assigned a level at measurement date based on the significance and source of the inputs to its valuation. Various data inputs are used in determining the value of each of the Fund’s investments as of the reporting period end. These data inputs are categorized in the following hierarchy under applicable financial accounting standards:
32 OPPENHEIMER PORTFOLIO SERIES CONSERVATIVE INVESTOR FUND
NOTESTO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Continued | ||||
| ||||
2. Securities Valuation (Continued) |
1) Level 1-unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (including securities actively traded on a securities exchange)
2) Level 2-inputs other than unadjusted quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (such as unadjusted quoted prices for similar assets and market corroborated inputs such as interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risks, etc.)
3) Level 3-significant unobservable inputs (including the Manager’s own judgments about assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability).
The inputs used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities.
The Fund classifies each of its investments in those Underlying Funds which are publicly offered and reported on an exchange as Level 1, and those Underlying Funds which are not publicly offered as Level 2, without consideration as to the classification level of the specific investments held by the Underlying Funds.
The table below categorizes amounts that are included in the Fund’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities as of January 31, 2014 based on valuation input level:

5. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates
Management Fees. Under the investment advisory agreement, the Manager does not charge a management fee, but rather collects indirect management fees from the Fund’s investments in the Underlying Funds. The weighted indirect management fees collected from the Fund’s investment in the Underlying Funds, as a percent of average daily net assets of the

5. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates (Continued) |
Fund for the year ended January 31, 2014 was 0.52%. This amount is gross of any waivers or reimbursements of management fees implemented at the Underlying Fund level.
Sub-Adviser Fees. The Manager has retained the Sub-Adviser to provide the day-to-day portfolio management of the Fund. Under the Sub-Advisory Agreement, the Manager pays the Sub-Adviser an annual fee in monthly installments, equal to a percentage of the investment management fee collected by the Manager from the Fund, which shall be calculated after any investment management fee waivers. The fee paid to the Sub-Adviser is paid by the Manager, not by the Fund.
Transfer Agent Fees. OFI Global (the “Transfer Agent”) serves as the transfer and shareholder servicing agent for the Fund. Fees incurred by the Fund with respect to these services are detailed in the Statement of Operations.
Sub-Transfer Agent Fees. The Transfer Agent has retained Shareholder Services, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of OFI (the “Sub-Transfer Agent”), to provide the day-to-day transfer agent and shareholder servicing of the Fund. Under the Sub-Transfer Agency Agreement, the Transfer Agent pays the Sub-Transfer Agent an annual fee in monthly installments, equal to a percentage of the transfer agent fee collected by the Transfer Agent from the Fund, which shall be calculated after any applicable fee waivers. The fee paid to the Sub-Transfer Agent is paid by the Transfer Agent, not by the Fund.
Distribution and Service Plan (12b-1) Fees. Under its General Distributor’s Agreement with the Fund, OppenheimerFunds Distributor, Inc. (the “Distributor”) acts as the Fund’s principal underwriter in the continuous public offering of the Fund’s classes of shares.
Service Plan for Class A Shares. The Fund has adopted a Service Plan (the “Plan”) for Class A shares under Rule 12b-1 of the Investment Company Act of 1940. Under the Plan, the Fund reimburses the Distributor for a portion of its costs incurred for services provided to accounts that hold Class A shares. Reimbursement is made periodically at an annual rate of up to 0.25% of the daily net assets of Class A shares of the Fund. The Distributor currently uses all of those fees to pay dealers, brokers, banks and other financial institutions periodically for providing personal service and maintenance of accounts of their customers that hold Class A shares. Any unreimbursed expenses the Distributor incurs with respect to Class A shares in any fiscal year cannot be recovered in subsequent periods. Fees incurred by the Fund under the Plan are detailed in the Statement of Operations.
Distribution and Service Plans for Class B, Class C and Class N Shares. The Fund has adopted Distribution and Service Plans (the “Plans”) for Class B, Class C and Class N shares under Rule 12b-1 of the Investment Company Act of 1940 to compensate the Distributor for its services in connection with the distribution of those shares and servicing accounts. Under the Plans, the Fund pays the Distributor an annual asset-based sales charge of 0.75% on Class B and Class C shares daily net assets and 0.25% on Class N shares daily

5. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates (Continued) |
net assets. The Distributor also receives a service fee of 0.25% per year under each plan. If either the Class B, Class C or Class N plan is terminated by the Fund or by the shareholders of a class, the Board of Trustees and its independent trustees must determine whether the Distributor shall be entitled to payment from the Fund of all or a portion of the service fee and/or asset-based sales charge in respect to shares sold prior to the effective date of such termination. Fees incurred by the Fund under the Plans are detailed in the Statement of Operations. The Distributor determines its uncompensated expenses under the Plans at calendar quarter ends. The Distributor’s aggregate uncompensated expenses under the Plans at December 31, 2013 were as follows:
Class C | $ | 1,904,267 | ||
Class N | 1,403,471 |
Sales Charges. Front-end sales charges and contingent deferred sales charges (“CDSC”) do not represent expenses of the Fund. They are deducted from the proceeds of sales of Fund shares prior to investment or from redemption proceeds prior to remittance, as applicable. The sales charges retained by the Distributor from the sale of shares and the CDSC retained by the Distributor on the redemption of shares is shown in the following table for the period indicated.

Waivers and Reimbursements of Expenses. The Manager has voluntarily agreed to waive fees and/or reimburse the Fund for certain expenses in order to limit “Expenses after payments, waivers and/or reimbursements and reduction to custodian expenses”, (the combined direct (Fund level) and indirect (Underlying Fund level) expenses), will not exceed the annual rate of 1.25%, 2.00%, 2.00%, 1.50% and 1.00%, for Class A, Class B, Class C, Class N and Class Y, respectively. The expense limitations do not include extraordinary expenses and other expenses not incurred in the ordinary course of the Fund’s business. Notwithstanding the foregoing limits, the Manager is not required to waive or reimburse Fund expenses in excess of the amount of indirect management fees earned from investments in the Underlying Funds.
The Manager has also contractually agreed to waive fees and/or reimburse certain Fund expenses at an annual rate of 0.10% as calculated on the daily net assets of the Fund. This waiver and/or reimbursement is applied after (and in addition to) any other applicable waiver and/or expense reimbursements that may apply. During the year ended January 31, 2014, the manager waived fees and/or reimbursed the Fund $555,289.
The Transfer Agent has contractually agreed to limit transfer and shareholder servicing agent fees for all classes to 0.35% of average annual net assets per class.

5. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates (Continued) |
During the year ended January 31, 2014, the Transfer Agent waived $48,277 of fees.

6. Acquisition of Oppenheimer Transition 2010 Fund
On October 18, 2012, the Fund acquired all of the net assets of Oppenheimer Transition 2010 Fund at fair market value, pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization approved by the Oppenheimer Transition 2010 Fund shareholders on September 14, 2012. The exchange qualified as a tax-free reorganization for federal income tax purposes. The purpose of the acquisition is to combine two funds with similar investment objectives, strategies, and risks to allow shareholders to benefit from greater asset growth potential, as well as lowered expenses.
The transaction qualified as a tax-free reorganization, (the “merger”) for federal income tax purposes allowing the Fund to use the original cost basis of the investments received to calculate subsequent gains and losses for tax reporting purposes.
Details of the merger are shown in the following table:

7. Pending Litigation
Since 2009, seven class action lawsuits have been pending in the U.S. District Court for the District of Colorado against OppenheimerFunds, Inc. (“OFI”), OppenheimerFunds Distributor, Inc., the Fund’s principal underwriter and distributor (the “Distributor”), and certain funds (but not including the Fund) advised by OFI Global Asset Management, Inc. and distributed by the Distributor (the “Defendant Funds”). The lawsuits also name as defendants certain officers and current and former trustees of the respective Defendant Funds. The lawsuits raise claims under federal securities law and allege, among other things, that the disclosure documents of the respective Defendant Funds contained misrepresentations and omissions and that the respective Defendant Funds’ investment policies were not followed. The plaintiffs in these actions seek unspecified damages, equitable relief and awards of attorneys’ fees and

7. Pending Litigation (Continued) |
litigation expenses. The Defendant Funds’ Boards of Trustees have also engaged counsel to represent the Funds and the present and former Independent Trustees named in those suits. On March 5, 2014, the parties in six of these lawsuits executed stipulations and agreements of settlement resolving those actions. The settlements are subject to a variety of contingencies, including approval by the court. The settlements do not resolve a seventh outstanding lawsuit relating to Oppenheimer California Municipal Fund.
Other class action and individual lawsuits have been filed since 2008 in various state and federal courts against OFI and certain of its affiliates by investors seeking to recover investments they allegedly lost as a result of the “Ponzi” scheme run by Bernard L. Madoff and his firm, Bernard L. Madoff Investment Securities, LLC (“BLMIS”). Plaintiffs in these suits allege that they suffered losses as a result of their investments in several funds managed by an affiliate of OFI and assert a variety of claims, including breach of fiduciary duty, fraud, negligent misrepresentation, unjust enrichment, and violation of federal and state securities laws and regulations, among others. They seek unspecified damages, equitable relief and awards of attorneys’ fees and litigation expenses. Neither the Distributor, nor any of the Oppenheimer mutual funds, their independent trustees or directors are named as defendants in these lawsuits. None of the Oppenheimer mutual funds invested in any funds or accounts managed by Madoff or BLMIS. On February 28, 2011, a stipulation of partial settlement of three groups of consolidated putative class action lawsuits relating to these matters was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. On August 19, 2011, the court entered an order and final judgment approving the settlement as fair, reasonable and adequate. In September 2011, certain parties filed notices of appeal from the court’s order approving the settlement. The settlement does not resolve other outstanding lawsuits against OFI and its affiliates relating to BLMIS.
On April 16, 2010, a lawsuit was filed in New York state court against (i) OFI, (ii) an affiliate of OFI and (iii) AAArdvark IV Funding Limited (“AAArdvark IV”), an entity advised by OFI’s affiliate, in connection with investments made by the plaintiffs in AAArdvark IV. Plaintiffs alleged breach of contract and common law fraud claims against the defendants and sought compensatory damages, costs and disbursements, including attorney fees. On April 11, 2013, the court granted defendants’ motion for summary judgment, dismissing plaintiffs’ fraud claim with prejudice and dismissing their contract claim without prejudice, and granted plaintiffs leave to replead their contract claim to assert a cause of action for specific performance within 30 days. On May 9, 2013, plaintiffs filed a notice of appeal from the court’s dismissal order. On January 7, 2014, the appellate court affirmed the trial court’s dismissal order. On July 15, 2011, a lawsuit was filed in New York state court against OFI, an affiliate of OFI and AAArdvark Funding Limited (“AAArdvark I”), an entity advised by OFI’s affiliate, in connection with investments made by the plaintiffs in AAArdvark I. The complaint alleges breach of contract and common law fraud claims against the defendants and seeks compensatory damages, costs and disbursements, including attorney fees. On November 9, 2011, a lawsuit was filed in New York state court against OFI, an affiliate of OFI and AAArdvark XS Funding Limited (“AAArdvark XS”), an entity advised by OFI’s affiliate, in
38 OPPENHEIMER PORTFOLIO SERIES CONSERVATIVE INVESTOR FUND
NOTESTO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Continued | ||||

7. Pending Litigation (Continued) |
connection with investments made by the plaintiffs in AAArdvark XS. The complaint alleged breach of contract against the defendants and sought compensatory damages, costs and disbursements, including attorney fees. On November 8, 2013, the parties filed a stipulation of discontinuance dismissing the lawsuit with prejudice.
OFI believes the lawsuits and appeals described above are without legal merit and, with the exception of actions it has settled, is defending against them vigorously. While it is premature to render any opinion as to the outcome in these lawsuits, or whether any costs that the Defendant Funds may bear in defending the suits might not be reimbursed by insurance, OFI believes that these suits should not impair the ability of OFI or the Distributor to perform their respective duties to the Fund, and that the outcome of all of the suits together should not have any material effect on the operations of any of the Oppenheimer mutual funds.

REPORTOF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM |
The Board of Trustees and Shareholders of Oppenheimer Portfolio Series:
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Conservative Investor Fund (a series of Oppenheimer Portfolio Series), including the statement of investments, as of January 31, 2014, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the years in the two-year period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the years in the five-year period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of January 31, 2014, by correspondence with the custodian, transfer agent and brokers, or by other appropriate auditing procedures where replies from brokers were not received. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Conservative Investor Fund as of January 31, 2014, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the years in the two-year period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the years in the five-year period then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

FEDERAL INCOME TAX INFORMATION Unaudited |
In early 2014, if applicable, shareholders of record received information regarding all dividends and distributions paid to them by the Fund during calendar year 2013.
Dividends, if any, paid by the Fund during the fiscal year ended January 31, 2014 which are not designated as capital gain distributions should be multiplied by the maximum amount allowable but not less than 14.73% to arrive at the amount eligible for the corporate dividend-received deduction.
A portion, if any, of the dividends paid by the Fund during the fiscal year ended January 31, 2014 which are not designated as capital gain distributions are eligible for lower individual income tax rates to the extent that the Fund has received qualified dividend income as stipulated by recent tax legislation. The maximum amount allowable but not less than $1,714,211 of the Fund’s fiscal year taxable income may be eligible for the lower individual income tax rates. In early 2014, shareholders of record received information regarding the percentage of distributions that are eligible for lower individual income tax rates.
Recent tax legislation allows a regulated investment company to designate distributions not designated as capital gain distributions, as either interest related dividends or short-term capital gain dividends, both of which are exempt from the U.S. withholding tax applicable to non U.S. taxpayers. For the fiscal year ended January 31, 2014, the maximum amount allowable but not less than $6,600,701 of the ordinary distributions to be paid by the Fund qualifies as an interest related dividend.
The Fund has elected the application of Section 853 of the Internal Revenue Code to permit shareholders to take a federal income tax credit or deduction, at their option, on a per share basis. The maximum amount allowable but not less than $34,144 of foreign income taxes were paid by the Fund during the fiscal year ended January 31, 2014. A separate notice will be mailed to each shareholder, which will reflect the proportionate share of such foreign taxes which must be treated by shareholders as gross income for federal income tax purposes.
Gross income of the maximum amount allowable but not less than $333,189 was derived from sources within foreign countries or possessions of the United States.
The foregoing information is presented to assist shareholders in reporting distributions received from the Fund to the Internal Revenue Service. Because of the complexity of the federal regulations which may affect your individual tax return and the many variations in state and local tax regulations, we recommend that you consult your tax advisor for specific guidance.

BOARDAPPROVALOFTHE FUND’S INVESTMENT ADVISORY AND SUB-ADVISORY AGREEMENTS Unaudited |
The Fund has entered into an investment advisory agreement with OFI Global Asset Management, Inc. (“OFI Global” or the “Adviser”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of OppenheimerFunds, Inc. (“OFI” or the “Sub-Adviser”) (“OFI Global” and “OFI” together the “Managers”) and OFI Global has entered into a sub-advisory agreement with OFI whereby OFI provides investment sub-advisory services to the Fund (collectively, the “Agreements”). Each year, the Board of Trustees (the “Board”), including a majority of the independent Trustees, is required to determine whether to renew the Agreements. The Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, requires that the Board request and evaluate, and that the Managers provide, such information as may be reasonably necessary to evaluate the terms of the Agreements. The Board employs an independent consultant to prepare a report that provides information, including comparative information that the Board requests for that purpose. In addition to in-person meetings focused on this evaluation, the Board receives information throughout the year regarding Fund services, fees, expenses and performance.
The Adviser, Sub-Adviser and the independent consultant provided information to the Board on the following factors: (i) the nature, quality and extent of the Managers’ services, (ii) the investment performance of the Fund and the Managers, (iii) the fees and expenses of the Fund, including comparative expense information, (iv) the profitability of the Managers and their affiliates, including an analysis of the cost of providing services, (v) whether economies of scale are realized as the Fund grows and whether fee levels reflect these economies of scale for Fund investors and (vi) other benefits to the Managers from their relationship with the Fund. The Board was aware that there are alternatives to retaining the Managers.
Outlined below is a summary of the principal information considered by the Board as well as the Board’s conclusions.
Nature, Quality and Extent of Services. The Board considered information about the nature, quality and extent of the services provided to the Fund and information regarding the Managers’ key personnel who provide such services. The Sub-Adviser’s duties include providing the Fund with the services of the portfolio manager and the Sub-Adviser’s investment team, who provide research, analysis and other advisory services in regard to the Fund’s investments; securities trading services; oversight of third-party service providers; monitoring compliance with applicable Fund policies and procedures and adherence to the Fund’s investment restrictions; and risk management. The Managers are responsible for providing certain administrative services to the Fund as well. Those services include providing and supervising all administrative and clerical personnel who are necessary in order to provide effective corporate administration for the Fund; compiling and maintaining records with respect to the Fund’s operations; preparing and filing reports required by the Securities and Exchange Commission; preparing periodic reports regarding the operations of the Fund for its shareholders; preparing proxy materials for shareholder meetings; and preparing the registration statements required by Federal and state securities laws for the sale of the Fund’s shares. The Managers also provide the Fund with office space, facilities and equipment.
The Board also considered the quality of the services provided and the quality of the Managers’ resources that are available to the Fund. The Board took account of the fact that the Sub-Adviser has had over fifty years of experience as an investment adviser and that its assets under management rank it among the top mutual fund managers in the United States. The Board evaluated the Sub-Adviser’s advisory, administrative, accounting, legal, compliance

BOARDAPPROVALOFTHE FUND’S INVESTMENT ADVISORY AND SUB-ADVISORY AGREEMENTS Unaudited / Continued |
services and risk management, and information the Board has received regarding the experience and professional qualifications of the Managers’ key personnel and the size and functions of its staff. In its evaluation of the quality of the portfolio management services provided, the Board considered the experience of Mark Hamilton, the portfolio manager for the Fund, and the experience of the portfolio managers and the investment performance of the investment companies in which the Fund invests (the “Underlying Funds”). The Board members also considered the totality of their experiences with the Managers as directors or trustees of the Fund and other funds advised by the Managers. The Board considered information regarding the quality of services provided by affiliates of the Managers, which its members have become knowledgeable about in connection with the renewal of the Fund’s service agreements. The Board concluded, in light of the Managers’ experience, reputation, personnel, operations and resources that the Fund benefits from the services provided under the Agreement.
Investment Performance of the Fund, the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser. Throughout the year, the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser provided information on the investment performance of the Fund, the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser, including comparative performance information. The Board also reviewed information, prepared by the Adviser, the Sub-Adviser and the independent consultant, comparing the Fund’s historical performance to its benchmarks and to the performance of other retail conservative allocation funds. The Board noted that the Fund’s three-year performance was better than its category median although its one-year and five-year performance was below its category median.
Costs of Services by the Adviser. The Board reviewed the fees paid to the Adviser and the other expenses borne by the Fund. The Board also considered the comparability of the fees charged and the services provided to the Fund to the fees and services for other clients or accounts advised by the Adviser. The independent consultant provided comparative data in regard to the fees and expenses of the Fund and other retail front-end load conservative allocation funds with comparable asset levels and distribution features. The Adviser has voluntarily agreed to waive fees and/or reimburse the Fund for certain expenses in order to limit annual fund operating expenses after any fee waiver and/or expense reimbursement (including the combined direct (Fund level) and indirect (Underlying Fund level) expenses, but excluding (i) interest, taxes, dividends tied to short sales, brokerage commissions, and other expenditures which are capitalized in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles; (ii) certain other expenses attributable to, and incurred as a result of, a Fund’s investments; and (iii) other extraordinary expenses (including litigation expenses) not incurred in the ordinary course of the Fund’s business) to annual rates of 1.25% for Class A shares, 2.00% for Class B shares, 2.00% for Class C shares, 1.50% for Class N shares, and 1.00% for Class Y shares, as calculated on the daily net assets of the Fund. This fee waiver and/or expense reimbursement may be amended or withdrawn at any time without prior notice to shareholders. The Adviser has also agreed to contractually waive fees and/or reimburse certain Fund expenses at an annual rate of 0.10% as calculated on the daily net assets of the Fund. This contractual fee waiver and/or expense reimbursement may not be amended or withdrawn for one year from the date of the prospectus, unless approved by the Board. The Board noted that the Fund was charged no actual management fees, exclusive of Underlying Fund management fees, while certain peer group funds did charge
43 OPPENHEIMER PORTFOLIO SERIES CONSERVATIVE INVESTOR FUND
direct management fees. The Fund’s total expenses were lower than its peer group median and its category median.
Economies of Scale and Profits Realized by the Adviser and Sub-Adviser. The Board considered information regarding OFI Global’s costs in serving as the Fund’s investment adviser, including the costs associated with the personnel and systems necessary to manage the Fund, and information regarding the Managers’ profitability from their relationship with the Fund. The Board reviewed whether the Managers may realize economies of scale in managing and supporting the Fund.
Other Benefits to the Managers. In addition to considering the profits realized by the Managers, the Board considered information that was provided regarding the direct and indirect benefits the Managers receive as a result of their relationship with the Fund, including compensation paid to the Managers’ affiliates. The Board also considered that the Managers must be able to pay and retain experienced professional personnel at competitive rates to provide quality services to the Fund.
Conclusions. These factors were also considered by the independent Trustees meeting separately from the full Board, assisted by experienced counsel to the Fund and to the independent Trustees. Fund counsel and the independent Trustees’ counsel are independent of the Managers within the meaning and intent of the Securities and Exchange Commission Rules.
Based on its review of the information it received and its evaluations described above, the Board, including a majority of the independent Trustees, decided to continue the Agreements through September 30, 2014. In arriving at its decision, the Board did not identify any factor or factors as being more important than others, but considered all of the above information, and considered the terms and conditions of the Agreements, including the management fees, in light of all the surrounding circumstances.

Householding—Delivery of Shareholder Documents
This is to inform you about OppenheimerFunds’ “householding” policy. If more than one member of your household maintains an account in a particular fund, OppenheimerFunds will mail only one copy of the fund’s prospectus (or, if available, the fund’s summary prospectus), annual and semiannual report and privacy policy. The consolidation of these mailings, called householding, benefits your fund through reduced mailing expense, and benefits you by reducing the volume of mail you receive from OppenheimerFunds. Householding does not affect the delivery of your account statements.
Please note that we will continue to household these mailings for as long as you remain an OppenheimerFunds shareholder, unless you request otherwise. If you prefer to receive multiple copies of these materials, please call us at 1.800.CALL-OPP (225-5677). You may also notify us in writing or via email. We will begin sending you individual copies of the prospectus (or, if available, the summary prospectus), reports and privacy policy within 30 days of receiving your request to stop householding.

— | Applications or other forms |
— | When you create a user ID and password for online account access |
— | When you enroll in eDocs Direct, our electronic document delivery service |
— | Your transactions with us, our affiliates or others |
— | A software program on our website, often referred to as a “cookie,” which indicates which parts of our site you’ve visited |
— | When you set up challenge questions to reset your password online |
If you visit oppenheimerfunds.com and do not log on to the secure account information areas, we do not obtain any personal information about you. When you do log on to a secure area, we do obtain your user ID and password to identify you. We also use this information to provide you with products and services you have requested, to inform you about products and services that you may be interested in and assist you in other ways.
We do not collect personal information through our website unless you willingly provide it to us, either directly by email or in those areas of the website that request information. In order to update your personal information (including your mailing address, email address and phone number) you must first log on and visit your user profile.
If you have set your browser to warn you before accepting cookies, you will receive the warning message with each cookie. You can refuse cookies by turning them off in your browser. However, doing so may limit your access to certain sections of our website.
We use cookies to help us improve and manage our website. For example, cookies help us recognize new versus repeat visitors to the site, track the pages visited, and enable some special features on the website. This data helps us provide a better service for our website visitors.
Protection of Information
We do not disclose any non-public personal information (such as names on a customer list) about current or former customers to anyone, except as permitted by law.
Disclosure of Information
We send your financial advisor (as designated by you) copies of confirmations, account statements and other documents reporting activity in your fund accounts. We may also use details about you and your investments to help us, our financial service affiliates, or firms that jointly market their financial products and services with ours, to better serve your investment needs or suggest financial services or educational material that may be of interest to you. If this requires us to provide you with an opportunity to “opt in” or “opt out” of such information sharing with a firm not affiliated with us, you will receive notification on how to do so, before any such sharing takes place.
Right of Refusal
We will not disclose your personal information to unaffiliated third parties (except as permitted by law), unless we first offer you a reasonable opportunity to refuse or “opt out” of such disclosure.

Internet Security and Encryption
In general, the email services provided by our website are encrypted and provide a secure and private means of communication with us. To protect your own privacy, confidential and/or personal information should only be communicated via email when you are advised that you are using a secure website.
As a security measure, we do not include personal or account information in non-secure emails, and we advise you not to send such information to us in non-secure emails. Instead, you may take advantage of the secure features of our website to encrypt your email correspondence. To do this, you will need to use a browser that supports Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol.
We do not guarantee or warrant that any part of our website, including files available for download, are free of viruses or other harmful code. It is your responsibility to take appropriate precautions, such as use of an anti-virus software package, to protect your computer hardware and software.
— | All transactions, including redemptions, exchanges and purchases, are secured by SSL and 128-bit encryption. SSL is used to establish a secure connection between your PC and OppenheimerFunds’ server. It transmits information in an encrypted and scrambled format. |
— | Encryption is achieved through an electronic scrambling technology that uses a “key” to code and then decode the data. Encryption acts like the cable converter box you may have on your television set. It scrambles data with a secret code so that no one can make sense of it while it is being transmitted. When the data reaches its destination, the same software unscrambles the data. |
— | You can exit the secure area by either closing your browser, or for added security, you can use the Log Out button before you close your browser. |
Other Security Measures
We maintain physical, electronic and procedural safeguards to protect your personal account information. Our employees and agents have access to that information only so that they may offer you products or provide services, for example, when responding to your account questions.
How You Can Help
You can also do your part to keep your account information private and to prevent unauthorized transactions. If you obtain a user ID and password for your account, do not allow it to be used by anyone else. Also, take special precautions when accessing your account on a computer used by others.
Who We Are

2 OPPENHEIMER PORTFOLIO SERIES MODERATE INVESTOR FUND
During the one-year reporting period ended January 31, 2014, the Fund’s Class A shares (without sales charge) produced a total return of 10.00%. During a period in which equities outperformed fixed-income securities, the Fund outperformed the Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index’s return of 0.12%, but underperformed the S&P 500 Index’s return of 21.52%.
MARKET OVERVIEW
Accommodative monetary policies on the part of central banks in the U.S., Europe and Japan, combined with an improving economic outlook, resulted in a rally among equities and higher-yielding bonds over the first four months of 2013. At the same time, yields of U.S. government securities remained near historical lows due to the Federal Reserve’s (the “Fed’s”) massive bond buying program. These developments drove financial markets
higher through the early spring of 2013. At that time, economic data appeared to confirm that the United States, Europe and Japan had engineered a sustained economic rebound, but investors responded negatively to disappointing economic data from China, India, Brazil, and other emerging markets. The ensuing “flight to quality” toward traditional safe havens produced sharp dislocations in emerging equity, fixed-income

and currency markets. In late May, remarks by Fed chairman Ben Bernanke were widely interpreted as a signal that U.S. monetary policymakers would begin to back away from their quantitative easing program sooner than expected, sparking heightened volatility in financial markets throughout the world. However, market conditions generally stabilized over the summer of 2013. In October, the U.S. Congress managed to reach a bipartisan agreement to raise the national debt ceiling, and did so well ahead of the potential default deadline. While the Fed refrained from reducing its monthly bond purchases in September, in December the Central Bank announced that it would reduce its monthly bond purchases by $10 billion, from $85 billion to $75 billion, starting in January 2014. The Fed also continued to hold short-term interest rates at very low levels throughout the reporting period. Against this backdrop, equities generally performed well over 2013, with fixed-income producing muted results. While concerns that ongoing downturns in the emerging markets might dampen the U.S. economic recovery resulted in renewed volatility in stock and bond markets over January 2014, corporate earnings growth generally remained strong, and the unemployment rate fell.
FUND REVIEW
The largest underlying domestic equity holdings of the Fund were Oppenheimer Value Fund and Oppenheimer Capital Appreciation Fund. These two underlying funds provided the strongest contribution to the Fund’s return on an absolute basis this
period. Oppenheimer Value Fund and Oppenheimer Capital Appreciation Fund received their best absolute results from securities in the financials sector and health care sector, respectively. However, they underperformed their benchmarks, the S&P 500 Index and the Russell 1000 Value Index (for Oppenheimer Value Fund), and the S&P 500 Index and the Russell 1000 Growth Index (for Oppenheimer Capital Appreciation Fund). The Fund had a smaller allocation to Oppenheimer Main Street Small- & Mid-Cap Fund, which also performed positively. The underlying fund’s absolute performance was driven by certain stocks within the health care sector. However, on a relative basis, the underlying fund underperformed its benchmark, the Russell 2500 Index.
The Fund’s largest foreign equity funds at period end and its strongest contributors to performance in the space were Oppenheimer International Growth Fund and Oppenheimer International Value Fund. Oppenheimer International Growth Fund’s performance was driven largely by holdings in the information technology sector. Oppenheimer International Value Fund received its best absolute performance from stocks in the consumer discretionary sector this reporting period. Both of these underlying funds outperformed their benchmarks, the MSCI All Country World ex-U.S. Index and the MSCI EAFE Index.
The Fund’s largest underlying fixed-income holding, Oppenheimer Core Bond Fund, produced positive results this reporting

period. During the reporting period, the underlying fund maintained limited exposure to government bonds and favored corporate bonds, mortgage-backed securities (“MBS”) and structured products. This positioning benefited the underlying fund’s performance during the period, as higher-yielding fixed income sectors outperformed the performance of U.S. Treasuries. The underlying fund outperformed its benchmarks, the Barclays Credit Index, Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index and the Citigroup Broad Investment Grade Bond Index. The Fund’s next largest underlying fixed-income funds were Oppenheimer Limited-Term Government Fund, Oppenheimer International Bond Fund and Oppenheimer Master Loan Fund, LLC. Oppenheimer Limited-Term Government Fund produced a muted return during the reporting period, as U.S. Government bonds lagged higher-yielding fixed-income sectors and equities. An allocation to MBS did benefit the Fund this reporting period. Relative to its benchmarks, the underlying fund outperformed the Barclays U.S. Government Bond Index, but underperformed the Barclays U.S. 1-3 Year Government Bond Index. Oppenheimer International Bond Fund produced a negative return this reporting period. As it has for some time, the underlying fund had a large allocation to emerging market debt. Specifically, the underlying fund’s position in emerging market local currency debt hurt its performance when volatility in the emerging markets climbed amid reactions to the potential for reduced levels of global liquidity.
Meanwhile, an allocation into European credit was additive to performance. The underlying fund did outperform its Reference Index, which is a customized weighted index comprised of 50% of the Citigroup Non-U.S. Dollar World Government Bond Index, 30% of the JPMorgan Government Bond Index - Emerging Markets Global Diversified, and 20% of the JPMorgan Emerging Markets Bond Index Global Diversified. Oppenheimer Master Loan Fund, LLC, which invests primarily in senior loans, benefited as senior floating-rate bank loans performed well during the reporting period. The underlying fund outperformed its benchmark, the Credit Suisse Leveraged Loan Index.
The Fund’s smaller allocation to alternative funds had a slight negative effect on performance this reporting period. Oppenheimer Gold & Special Minerals Fund, Oppenheimer Master Inflation Protected Securities Fund, LLC, and Oppenheimer Commodity Strategy Total Return Fund produced negative returns this period. Gold stocks and gold bullion remained out of favor among investors over the reporting period, mainly due to their preference for companies that are more leveraged to recovering U.S. and global economies. Although Oppenheimer Gold & Special Minerals Fund underperformed its benchmark, the MSCI World Index, it performed in line with other gold and precious metals indices, such as the Philadelphia Gold & Silver Index. Oppenheimer Master Inflation Protected Securities Fund, LLC, invests primarily in Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities (TIPS),

whose performance is closely correlated to U.S. inflation rates. Inflation continued to be tame as the Consumer Price Index (“CPI”) annual inflation rate was 1.6% before seasonal adjustment for the one-year period ended January 31, 2014, according to data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics at period end. This underlying fund performed in line with its benchmark, the Barclays U.S. Treasury Inflation Protected Securities Index, during the reporting period. Oppenheimer Commodity Strategy Total Return Fund was hurt as a variety of factors pressured commodity prices throughout the year, including the Fed’s taper talk starting in the spring, the relative stability of the U.S. dollar, a rising equity market, low inflation, a change in China’s growth priorities and fears about slowing emerging market demand. The underlying fund outperformed its benchmark, the Dow Jones-UBS Commodity Index Total Return, during the reporting period.
Oppenheimer Global Multi Strategies Fund and Oppenheimer Real Estate Fund were underlying alternative funds that produced positive absolute results for the Fund this reporting period. Oppenheimer Global Multi Strategies Fund seeks to offer the benefit of hedge fund-like strategies (Global Macro, Equity Market Neutral, Volatility, Fixed Income Alternative) with the transparency, pricing and daily liquidity of a mutual fund. The underlying fund’s Global Macro strategy, which involves tactical positioning in broad asset and/or sector classes, helped drive its performance. Relative to its benchmarks, the underlying fund outperformed the Barclays Global Aggregate Bond Index, but underperformed the S&P 500 Index.
Oppenheimer Real Estate Fund performed well early in the reporting period as the economic outlook continued to improve, and fears surrounded the fiscal cliff drama in Washington abated. While the Fed’s discussion of tapering did result in volatility for the underlying fund this period, it maintained a positive return for the overall reporting period. The underlying fund outperformed its benchmark, the FTSE NAREIT Equity REIT Index, during the reporting period.

Performance data quoted represents past performance, which does not guarantee future results. The investment return and principal value of an investment in the Fund will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance quoted. Returns do not consider capital gains or income taxes on an individual’s investment. For performance data current to the most recent month-end, visit oppenheimerfunds.com or call 1.800.CALL OPP (225.5677). Fund returns include changes in share price, reinvested distributions, and the applicable sales charge: for Class A shares, the current maximum initial sales charge of 5.75%; for Class B shares, the contingent deferred sales charge of 5% (1-year) and 2% (5-year); and for Class C and N shares, the contingent deferred sales charge of 1% for the 1-year period. There is no sales charge for Class Y shares. Because Class B shares convert to Class A shares 72 months after purchase, the 10-year return for Class B shares uses Class A performance for the period after conversion.
The Fund’s performance is compared to the performance of the S&P 500 Index and the Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index. The S&P 500 Index is an unmanaged index of large-capitalization equity securities that is a measure of the general domestic stock market. The Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index is an unmanaged, broad-based index of investment grade corporate debt. The indices are unmanaged and cannot be purchased directly by investors. Index performance includes reinvestment of income, but does not reflect transaction costs, fees, expenses or taxes. Index performance is shown for illustrative purposes only as a benchmark for the Fund’s performance, and does not predict or depict performance of the Fund. The Fund’s performance reflects the effects of the Fund’s business and operating expenses.
The Fund’s investment strategy and focus can change over time. The mention of specific fund holdings does not constitute a recommendation by OppenheimerFunds, Inc. or its affiliates.

Before investing in any of the Oppenheimer funds, investors should carefully consider a fund’s investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses. Fund prospectuses and summary prospectuses contain this and other information about the funds, and may be obtained by asking your financial advisor, visiting oppenheimerfunds.com, or calling 1.800.CALL OPP (225.5677). Read prospectuses and summary prospectuses carefully before investing.
Shares of Oppenheimer funds are not deposits or obligations of any bank, are not guaranteed by any bank, are not insured by the FDIC or any other agency, and involve investment risks, including the possible loss of the principal amount invested.

Fund Expenses. As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, which may include sales charges (loads) on purchase payments, contingent deferred sales charges on redemptions; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and service fees; and other Fund expenses. These examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The examples are based on an investment of $1,000.00 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire 6-month period ended January 31, 2014.
Actual Expenses. The first section of the table provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section for the class of shares you hold, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expense that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000.00 (for example, an $8,600.00 account value divided by $1,000.00 = 8.60), then multiply the result by the number in the first section under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes. The second section of the table provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio for each class of shares, and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year for each class before expenses, which is not the 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 Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example for the class of shares you hold with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as front-end or contingent deferred sales charges (loads), or a $12.00 fee imposed annually on accounts valued at less than $500.00 (subject to exceptions described in the Statement of Additional Information). Therefore, the “hypothetical” section of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

Expenses are equal to the Fund’s annualized expense ratio for that class, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 184/365 (to reflect the one-half year period).

Some of these undertakings may be modified or terminated at any time, as indicated in the Fund’s prospectus. The “Financial Highlights” tables in the Fund’s financial statements, included in this report, also show the gross expense ratios, without such waivers or reimbursements and reduction to custodian expenses, if applicable.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS January 31, 2014 |
1. Significant Accounting Policies
Oppenheimer Portfolio Series (the “Trust”) is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as a diversified open-end management investment company. Moderate Investor Fund (the “Fund”) is a series of the Trust whose investment objective is to seek long-term growth of capital and current income. The Fund normally invests in a diversified portfolio of Oppenheimer mutual funds (individually, an “Underlying Fund” and collectively, the “Underlying Funds”). The Fund’s investment adviser is OFI Global Asset Management, Inc. (“OFI Global” or the “Manager”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of OppenheimerFunds, Inc. (“OFI” or the “Sub-Adviser”). The Manager has entered into a sub-advisory agreement with OFI.
The Fund offers Class A, Class C, Class N and Class Y shares, and previously offered Class B shares for new purchase through June 29, 2012. Subsequent to that date, no new purchases of Class B shares are permitted, however reinvestment of dividend and/or capital gain distributions and exchanges of Class B shares into and from other Oppenheimer funds will be allowed. Class A shares are sold at their offering price, which is normally net asset value plus a front-end sales charge. Class C and Class N shares are sold, and Class B shares were sold, without a front-end sales charge but may be subject to a contingent deferred sales charge (“CDSC”). Class N shares are sold only through retirement plans. Retirement plans that offer Class N shares may impose charges on those accounts. Class Y shares are sold to certain institutional investors or intermediaries without either a front-end sales charge or a CDSC, however, the intermediaries may impose charges on their accountholders who beneficially own Class Y shares. All classes of shares have identical rights and voting privileges with respect to the Fund in general and exclusive voting rights on matters that affect that class alone. Earnings, net assets and net asset value per share may differ due to each class having its own expenses, such as transfer and shareholder servicing agent fees and shareholder communications, directly attributable to that class. Class A, B, C and N shares have separate distribution and/or service plans under which they pay fees. Class Y shares do not pay such fees. Class B shares will automatically convert to Class A shares 72 months after the date of purchase.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund.
Risks of Investing in the Underlying Funds. Each of the Underlying Funds in which the Fund invests has its own investment risks, and those risks can affect the value of the Fund’s investments and therefore the value of the Fund’s shares. To the extent that the Fund invests more of its assets in one Underlying Fund than in another, the Fund will have greater exposure to the risks of that Underlying Fund.
Investment in Oppenheimer Institutional Money Market Fund. The Fund is permitted to invest daily available cash balances in an affiliated money market fund. The Fund may invest the available cash in Class E shares of Oppenheimer Institutional Money Market Fund (“IMMF”) to seek current income while preserving liquidity. IMMF is a registered open-end management investment company, regulated as a money market fund under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Manager is the investment adviser of IMMF, and the
25 OPPENHEIMER PORTFOLIO SERIES MODERATE INVESTOR FUND
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Continued |
1. Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
Sub-Adviser provides investment and related advisory services to IMMF. When applicable, the Fund’s investment in IMMF is included in the Statement of Investments. Shares of IMMF are valued at their net asset value per share. As a shareholder, the Fund is subject to its proportional share of IMMF’s Class E expenses, including its management fee.
Investment in Oppenheimer Master Funds. The Fund is permitted to invest in entities sponsored and/or advised by the Manager or an affiliate. Certain of these entities in which the Fund invests are mutual funds registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 that expect to be treated as partnerships for tax purposes, specifically Oppenheimer Master Loan Fund, LLC and Oppenheimer Master Inflation Protected Securities Fund, LLC (the “Master Funds”). Each Master Fund has its own investment risks, and those risks can affect the value of the Fund’s investments and therefore the value of the Fund’s shares. To the extent that the Fund invests more of its assets in one Master Fund than in another, the Fund will have greater exposure to the risks of that Master Fund.
The investment objective of Oppenheimer Master Loan Fund, LLC is to seek income. The investment objective of Oppenheimer Master Inflation Protected Securities Fund, LLC is to seek total return. The Fund’s investments in the Master Funds are included in the Statement of Investments. The Fund recognizes income and gain/(loss) on its investments in each Master Fund according to its allocated pro-rata share, based on its relative proportion of total outstanding Master Fund shares held, of the total net income earned and the net gain/(loss) realized on investments sold by the Master Funds. As a shareholder, the Fund is subject to its proportional share of the Master Funds’ expenses, including their management fee. The Manager will waive fees and/or reimburse Fund expenses in an amount equal to the indirect management fees incurred through the Fund’s investment in the Master Funds.
Allocation of Income, Expenses, Gains and Losses. Income, expenses (other than those attributable to a specific class), gains and losses are allocated on a daily basis to each class of shares based upon the relative proportion of net assets represented by such class. Operating expenses directly attributable to a specific class are charged against the operations of that class.
Federal Taxes. The Fund intends to comply with provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all of its investment company taxable income, including any net realized gain on investments not offset by capital loss carryforwards, if any, to shareholders. Therefore, no federal income or excise tax provision is required. The Fund files income tax returns in U.S. federal and applicable state jurisdictions. The statute of limitations on the Fund’s tax return filings generally remain open for the three preceding fiscal reporting period ends.

2. During the fiscal year ended January 31, 2014, the Fund utilized $17,988,389 of capital loss carryforward to offset capital gains realized in that fiscal year.
3. During the fiscal year ended January 31, 2013, the Fund did not utilize any capital loss carryforward.
Net investment income (loss) and net realized gain (loss) may differ for financial statement and tax purposes. The character of dividends and distributions made during the fiscal year from net investment income or net realized gains may differ from their ultimate characterization for federal income tax purposes. Also, due to timing of dividends and distributions, the fiscal year in which amounts are distributed may differ from the fiscal year in which the income or net realized gain was recorded by the Fund.
Accordingly, the following amounts have been reclassified for January 31, 2014. Net assets of the Fund were unaffected by the reclassifications.

Trustees’ Compensation. The Fund has adopted an unfunded retirement plan (the “Plan”) for the Fund’s independent trustees. Benefits are based on years of service and fees paid to each trustee during their period of service. The Plan was frozen with respect to adding new participants effective December 31, 2006 (the “Freeze Date”) and existing Plan Participants as of the Freeze Date will continue to receive accrued benefits under the Plan. Active independent trustees as of the Freeze Date have each elected a distribution method with respect to their benefits under the Plan. During the year ended January 31, 2014, the Fund’s projected benefit obligations, payments to retired trustees and accumulated liability were as follows:
Projected Benefit Obligations Increased | $ | 3,864 | ||
Payments Made to Retired Trustees | 4,667 | |||
Accumulated Liability as of January 31, 2014 | 36,682 |
The Board of Trustees has adopted a compensation deferral plan for independent trustees that enables trustees to elect to defer receipt of all or a portion of the annual compensation they are entitled to receive from the Fund. For purposes of determining the amount owed to the Trustee under the plan, deferred amounts are treated as though equal dollar amounts had been invested in shares of the Fund or in other Oppenheimer funds selected by the Trustee. The Fund purchases shares of the funds selected for deferral by the Trustee in amounts equal to his or her deemed investment, resulting in a Fund asset equal to the deferred compensation liability. Such assets are included as a component of “Other” within the asset section of the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Deferral of trustees’ fees under the plan will not affect the net assets of the Fund, and will not materially affect the Fund’s assets, liabilities or net investment income per share. Amounts will be deferred until distributed in accordance with the compensation deferral plan.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Continued |
1. Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends and distributions to shareholders, which are determined in accordance with income tax regulations and may differ from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gain distributions, if any, are declared and paid annually or at other times as deemed necessary by the Manager.
Investment Income. Dividend distributions received from the Underlying Funds are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Upon receipt of notification from an Underlying Fund, and subsequent to the ex-dividend date, some of the dividend income originally recorded by the Fund may be reclassified as a tax return of capital by reducing the cost basis of the Underlying Fund and/or increasing the realized gain on sales of investments in the Underlying Fund.
Custodian Fees. “Custodian fees and expenses” in the Statement of Operations may include interest expense incurred by the Fund on any cash overdrafts of its custodian account during the period. Such cash overdrafts may result from the effects of failed trades in portfolio securities and from cash outflows resulting from unanticipated shareholder redemption activity. The Fund pays interest to its custodian on such cash overdraft at a rate equal to the 1 Month LIBOR Rate plus 2.00%. The “Reduction to custodian expenses” line item, if applicable, represents earnings on cash balances maintained by the Fund during the period. Such interest expense and other custodian fees may be paid with these earnings.
Security Transactions. Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Realized gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost.
Indemnifications. The Fund’s organizational documents provide current and former trustees and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the Fund. In the normal course of business, the Fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against the Fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.
Other. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
2. Securities Valuation
The Fund calculates the net asset value of its shares based upon the net asset value of the applicable Underlying Fund. For each Underlying Fund, the net asset value per share for a class of shares is determined as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (the
29 OPPENHEIMER PORTFOLIO SERIES MODERATE INVESTOR FUND
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Continued |
2. Securities Valuation (Continued)
“Exchange”), normally 4:00 P.M. Eastern time, on each day the Exchange is open for trading by dividing the value of the Underlying Fund’s net assets attributable to that class by the number of outstanding shares of that class on that day.
The Fund’s Board has adopted procedures for the valuation of the Fund’s securities and has delegated the day-to-day responsibility for valuation determinations under those procedures to the Manager. The Manager has established a Valuation Committee which is responsible for determining a “fair valuation” for any security for which market quotations are not “readily available.” The Valuation Committee’s fair valuation determinations are subject to review, approval and ratification by the Fund’s Board at its next regularly scheduled meeting covering the calendar quarter in which the fair valuation was determined.
Valuations Methods and Inputs
To determine their net asset values, the Underlying Funds’ assets are valued primarily on the basis of current market quotations as generally supplied by third party portfolio pricing services or by dealers. Such market quotations are typically based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical securities or other observable market inputs.
If a market value or price cannot be determined for a security using the methodologies described above, or if, in the “good faith” opinion of the Manager, the market value or price obtained does not constitute a “readily available market quotation,” or a significant event has occurred that would materially affect the value of the security the security is fair valued either (i) by a standardized fair valuation methodology applicable to the security type or the significant event as previously approved by the Valuation Committee and the Fund’s Board or (ii) as determined in good faith by the Manager’s Valuation Committee. The Valuation Committee considers all relevant facts that are reasonably available, through either public information or information available to the Manager, when determining the fair value of a security. Fair value determinations by the Manager are subject to review, approval and ratification by the Fund’s Board at its next regularly scheduled meeting covering the calendar quarter in which the fair valuation was determined. The methodologies used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those Underlying Funds.
To assess the continuing appropriateness of security valuations, the Manager, or its third party service provider who is subject to oversight by the Manager, regularly compares prior day prices, prices on comparable securities, and sale prices to the current day prices and challenges those prices exceeding certain tolerance levels with the third party pricing service or broker source. For those securities valued by fair valuations, whether through a standardized fair valuation methodology or a fair valuation determination, the Valuation Committee reviews and affirms the reasonableness of the valuations based on such methodologies and fair valuation determinations on a regular basis after considering all relevant information that is reasonably available.

Classifications
Each investment asset or liability of the Fund is assigned a level at measurement date based on the significance and source of the inputs to its valuation. Various data inputs are used in determining the value of each of the Fund’s investments as of the reporting period end. These data inputs are categorized in the following hierarchy under applicable financial accounting standards:
1) Level 1-unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (including securities actively traded on a securities exchange)
2) Level 2-inputs other than unadjusted quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (such as unadjusted quoted prices for similar assets and market corroborated inputs such as interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risks, etc.)
3) Level 3-significant unobservable inputs (including the Manager’s own judgments about assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability).
The inputs used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities.
The Fund classifies each of its investments in those Underlying Funds which are publicly offered and reported on an exchange as Level 1, and those Underlying Funds which are not publicly offered as Level 2, without consideration as to the classification level of the specific investments held by the Underlying Funds.
The table below categorizes amounts that are included in the Fund’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities as of January 31, 2014 based on valuation input level:

5. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates
Management Fees.

32 OPPENHEIMER PORTFOLIO SERIES MODERATE INVESTOR FUND
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Continued |
5. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates (Continued)
Fund for the year ended January 31, 2014 was 0.55%. This amount is gross of any waivers or reimbursements of management fees implemented at the Underlying Fund level.
Sub-Adviser Fees. The Manager has retained the Sub-Adviser to provide the day-to-day portfolio management of the Fund. Under the Sub-Advisory Agreement, the Manager pays the Sub-Adviser an annual fee in monthly installments, equal to a percentage of the investment management fee collected by the Manager from the Fund, which shall be calculated after any investment management fee waivers. The fee paid to the Sub-Adviser is paid by the Manager, not by the Fund.
Transfer Agent Fees. OFI Global (the “Transfer Agent”) serves as the transfer and shareholder servicing agent for the Fund. Fees incurred by the Fund with respect to these services are detailed in the Statement of Operations.
Sub-Transfer Agent Fees. The Transfer Agent has retained Shareholder Services, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of OFI (the “Sub-Transfer Agent”), to provide the day-to-day transfer agent and shareholder servicing of the Fund. Under the Sub-Transfer Agency Agreement, the Transfer Agent pays the Sub-Transfer Agent an annual fee in monthly installments, equal to a percentage of the transfer agent fee collected by the Transfer Agent from the Fund, which shall be calculated after any applicable fee waivers. The fee paid to the Sub-Transfer Agent is paid by the Transfer Agent, not by the Fund.
Distribution and Service Plan (12b-1) Fees. Under its General Distributor’s Agreement with the Fund, OppenheimerFunds Distributor, Inc. (the “Distributor”) acts as the Fund’s principal underwriter in the continuous public offering of the Fund’s classes of shares.
Service Plan for Class A Shares. The Fund has adopted a Service Plan (the “Plan”) for Class A shares under Rule 12b-1 of the Investment Company Act of 1940. Under the Plan, the Fund reimburses the Distributor for a portion of its costs incurred for services provided to accounts that hold Class A shares. Reimbursement is made periodically at an annual rate of up to 0.25% of the daily net assets of Class A shares of the Fund. The Distributor currently uses all of those fees to pay dealers, brokers, banks and other financial institutions periodically for providing personal service and maintenance of accounts of their customers that hold Class A shares. Any unreimbursed expenses the Distributor incurs with respect to Class A shares in any fiscal year cannot be recovered in subsequent periods. Fees incurred by the Fund under the Plan are detailed in the Statement of Operations.
Distribution and Service Plans for Class B, Class C and Class N Shares. The Fund has adopted Distribution and Service Plans (the “Plans”) for Class B, Class C and Class N shares under Rule 12b-1 of the Investment Company Act of 1940 to compensate the Distributor for its services in connection with the distribution of those shares and servicing accounts. Under the Plans, the Fund pays the Distributor an annual asset-based sales charge

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Continued |
5. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates (Continued)
of 0.75% on Class B and Class C shares daily net assets and 0.25% on Class N shares daily net assets. The Distributor also receives a service fee of 0.25% per year under each plan. If either the Class B, Class C or Class N plan is terminated by the Fund or by the shareholders of a class, the Board of Trustees and its independent trustees must determine whether the Distributor shall be entitled to payment from the Fund of all or a portion of the service fee and/or asset-based sales charge in respect to shares sold prior to the effective date of such termination. Fees incurred by the Fund under the Plans are detailed in the Statement of Operations. The Distributor determines its uncompensated expenses under the Plans at calendar quarter ends. The Distributor’s aggregate uncompensated expenses under the Plans at December 31, 2013 were as follows:
Class C | $ | 4,508,699 | ||
Class N | 2,677,700 |
Sales Charges. Front-end sales charges and contingent deferred sales charges (“CDSC”) do not represent expenses of the Fund. They are deducted from the proceeds of sales of Fund shares prior to investment or from redemption proceeds prior to remittance, as applicable. The sales charges retained by the Distributor from the sale of shares and the CDSC retained by the Distributor on the redemption of shares is shown in the following table for the period indicated.

Waivers and Reimbursements of Expenses. The Manager has voluntarily agreed to waive fees and/or reimburse the Fund for certain expenses in order to limit “Expenses after payments, waivers and/or reimbursements and reduction to custodian expenses”, (the combined direct (Fund level) and indirect (Underlying Fund level) expenses), will not exceed the annual rate of 1.30%, 2.05%, 2.05%, 1.55% and 1.05%, for Class A, Class B, Class C, Class N and Class Y, respectively. The expense limitations do not include extraordinary expenses and other expenses not incurred in the ordinary course of the Fund’s business. Notwithstanding the foregoing limits, the Manager is not required to waive or reimburse Fund expenses in excess of the amount of indirect management fees earned from investments in the Underlying Funds.
The Manager has also contractually agreed to waive fees and/or reimburse certain Fund expenses at an annual rate of 0.07% as calculated on the daily net assets of the Fund. This waiver and/or reimbursement is applied after (and in addition to) any other applicable waiver and/or expense reimbursements that may apply.

7. Pending Litigation
Since 2009, seven class action lawsuits have been pending in the U.S. District Court for the District of Colorado against OppenheimerFunds, Inc. (“OFI”), OppenheimerFunds Distributor, Inc., the Fund’s principal underwriter and distributor (the “Distributor”), and certain funds (but not including the Fund) advised by OFI Global Asset Management, Inc. and distributed by the Distributor (the “Defendant Funds”). The lawsuits also name as defendants certain officers and current and former trustees of the respective Defendant Funds. The lawsuits raise claims under federal securities law and allege, among other things, that the disclosure documents of the respective Defendant Funds contained misrepresentations and omissions and that the respective Defendant Funds’ investment policies were not followed. The plaintiffs in these actions seek unspecified damages, equitable relief and awards of attorneys’ fees and litigation expenses. The Defendant Funds’ Boards of Trustees have also engaged counsel to represent the Funds and the present and former Independent Trustees named in those suits. On March 5, 2014, the parties in six of these lawsuits executed stipulations and agreements of settlement resolving those actions. The settlements are subject to a variety of contingencies, including approval by the court. The settlements do not resolve a seventh outstanding lawsuit relating to Oppenheimer California Municipal Fund.
Other class action and individual lawsuits have been filed since 2008 in various state and federal courts against OFI and certain of its affiliates by investors seeking to recover investments they allegedly lost as a result of the “Ponzi” scheme run by Bernard L. Madoff and his firm, Bernard L. Madoff Investment Securities, LLC (“BLMIS”). Plaintiffs in these suits allege that they suffered losses as a result of their investments in several funds managed by an affiliate of OFI and assert a variety of claims, including breach of fiduciary duty, fraud, negligent misrepresentation, unjust enrichment, and violation of federal and state securities laws and regulations, among others. They seek unspecified damages, equitable relief and awards of attorneys’ fees and litigation expenses. Neither the Distributor, nor any of the Oppenheimer mutual funds, their independent trustees or directors are named as defendants in these lawsuits. None of the Oppenheimer mutual funds invested in any funds or accounts managed by Madoff or BLMIS. On February 28, 2011, a stipulation of partial settlement of three groups of consolidated putative class action lawsuits relating to these matters was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. On August 19, 2011, the court entered an order and final judgment approving the settlement as fair, reasonable and adequate. In September 2011, certain parties filed notices of appeal from the court’s order approving the settlement. The settlement does not resolve other outstanding lawsuits against OFI and its affiliates relating to BLMIS.
On April 16, 2010, a lawsuit was filed in New York state court against (i) OFI, (ii) an affiliate of OFI and (iii) AAArdvark IV Funding Limited (“AAArdvark IV”), an entity advised by OFI’s affiliate, in connection with investments made by the plaintiffs in AAArdvark IV. Plaintiffs alleged breach of contract and common law fraud claims against the defendants and sought compensatory damages, costs and disbursements, including attorney fees. On April 11, 2013, the court granted defendants’ motion for summary judgment, dismissing plaintiffs’
37 OPPENHEIMER PORTFOLIO SERIES MODERATE INVESTOR FUND
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Continued |
7. Pending Litigation (Continued)
fraud claim with prejudice and dismissing their contract claim without prejudice, and granted plaintiffs leave to replead their contract claim to assert a cause of action for specific performance within 30 days. On May 9, 2013, plaintiffs filed a notice of appeal from the court’s dismissal order. On January 7, 2014, the appellate court affirmed the trial court’s dismissal order. On July 15, 2011, a lawsuit was filed in New York state court against OFI, an affiliate of OFI and AAArdvark Funding Limited (“AAArdvark I”), an entity advised by OFI’s affiliate, in connection with investments made by the plaintiffs in AAArdvark I. The complaint alleges breach of contract and common law fraud claims against the defendants and seeks compensatory damages, costs and disbursements, including attorney fees. On November 9, 2011, a lawsuit was filed in New York state court against OFI, an affiliate of OFI and AAArdvark XS Funding Limited (“AAArdvark XS”), an entity advised by OFI’s affiliate, in connection with investments made by the plaintiffs in AAArdvark XS. The complaint alleged breach of contract against the defendants and sought compensatory damages, costs and disbursements, including attorney fees. On November 8, 2013, the parties filed a stipulation of discontinuance dismissing the lawsuit with prejudice.
OFI believes the lawsuits and appeals described above are without legal merit and, with the exception of actions it has settled, is defending against them vigorously. While it is premature to render any opinion as to the outcome in these lawsuits, or whether any costs that the Defendant Funds may bear in defending the suits might not be reimbursed by insurance, OFI believes that these suits should not impair the ability of OFI or the Distributor to perform their respective duties to the Fund, and that the outcome of all of the suits together should not have any material effect on the operations of any of the Oppenheimer mutual funds.

ACCOUNTING FIRM |
The Board of Trustees and Shareholders of Oppenheimer Portfolio Series:
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Moderate Investor Fund (a series of Oppenheimer Portfolio Series), including the statement of investments, as of January 31, 2014, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the years in the two-year period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the years in the five-year period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of January 31, 2014, by correspondence with the custodian, transfer agent and brokers, or by other appropriate auditing procedures where replies from brokers were not received. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Moderate Investor Fund as of January 31, 2014, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the years in the two-year period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the years in the five-year period then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

In early 2014, if applicable, shareholders of record received information regarding all dividends and distributions paid to them by the Fund during calendar year 2013.
Dividends, if any, paid by the Fund during the fiscal year ended January 31, 2014 which are not designated as capital gain distributions should be multiplied by the maximum amount allowable but not less than 36.22% to arrive at the amount eligible for the corporate dividend-received deduction.
A portion, if any, of the dividends paid by the Fund during the fiscal year ended January 31, 2014 which are not designated as capital gain distributions are eligible for lower individual income tax rates to the extent that the Fund has received qualified dividend income as stipulated by recent tax legislation. The maximum amount allowable but not less than $9,463,224 of the Fund’s fiscal year taxable income may be eligible for the lower individual income tax rates. In early 2014, shareholders of record received information regarding the percentage of distributions that are eligible for lower individual income tax rates.
Recent tax legislation allows a regulated investment company to designate distributions not designated as capital gain distributions, as either interest related dividends or short-term capital gain dividends, both of which are exempt from the U.S. withholding tax applicable to non U.S. taxpayers. For the fiscal year ended January 31, 2014, the maximum amount allowable but not less than $8,874,727 of the ordinary distributions to be paid by the Fund qualifies as an interest related dividend.
The Fund has elected the application of Section 853 of the Internal Revenue Code to permit shareholders to take a federal income tax credit or deduction, at their option, on a per share basis. The maximum amount allowable but not less than $295,301 of foreign income taxes were paid by the Fund during the fiscal year ended January 31, 2014. A separate notice will be mailed to each shareholder, which will reflect the proportionate share of such foreign taxes which must be treated by shareholders as gross income for federal income tax purposes.
Gross income of the maximum amount allowable but not less than $2,870,057 was derived from sources within foreign countries or possessions of the United States.
The foregoing information is presented to assist shareholders in reporting distributions received from the Fund to the Internal Revenue Service. Because of the complexity of the federal regulations which may affect your individual tax return and the many variations in state and local tax regulations, we recommend that you consult your tax advisor for specific guidance.

BOARD APPROVAL OF THE FUND’S INVESTMENT ADVISORY AND SUB-ADVISORY AGREEMENTS Unaudited |
The Fund has entered into an investment advisory agreement with OFI Global Asset Management, Inc. (“OFI Global” or the “Adviser”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of OppenheimerFunds, Inc. (“OFI” or the “Sub-Adviser”) (“OFI Global” and “OFI” together the “Managers”) and OFI Global has entered into a sub-advisory agreement with OFI whereby OFI provides investment sub-advisory services to the Fund (collectively, the “Agreements”). Each year, the Board of Trustees (the “Board”), including a majority of the independent Trustees, is required to determine whether to renew the Agreements. The Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, requires that the Board request and evaluate, and that the Managers provide, such information as may be reasonably necessary to evaluate the terms of the Agreements. The Board employs an independent consultant to prepare a report that provides information, including comparative information that the Board requests for that purpose. In addition to in-person meetings focused on this evaluation, the Board receives information throughout the year regarding Fund services, fees, expenses and performance.
The Adviser, Sub-Adviser and the independent consultant provided information to the Board on the following factors: (i) the nature, quality and extent of the Managers’ services, (ii) the investment performance of the Fund and the Managers, (iii) the fees and expenses of the Fund, including comparative expense information, (iv) the profitability of the Managers and their affiliates, including an analysis of the cost of providing services, (v) whether economies of scale are realized as the Fund grows and whether fee levels reflect these economies of scale for Fund investors and (vi) other benefits to the Managers from their relationship with the Fund. The Board was aware that there are alternatives to retaining the Managers.
Outlined below is a summary of the principal information considered by the Board as well as the Board’s conclusions.
Nature, Quality and Extent of Services. The Board considered information about the nature, quality and extent of the services provided to the Fund and information regarding the Managers’ key personnel who provide such services. The Sub-Adviser’s duties include providing the Fund with the services of the portfolio manager and the Sub-Adviser’s investment team, who provide research, analysis and other advisory services in regard to the Fund’s investments; securities trading services; oversight of third-party service providers; monitoring compliance with applicable Fund policies and procedures and adherence to the Fund’s investment restrictions; and risk management. The Managers are responsible for providing certain administrative services to the Fund as well. Those services include providing and supervising all administrative and clerical personnel who are necessary in order to provide effective corporate administration for the Fund; compiling and maintaining records with respect to the Fund’s operations; preparing and filing reports required by the Securities and Exchange Commission; preparing periodic reports regarding the operations of the Fund for its shareholders; preparing proxy materials for shareholder meetings; and preparing the registration statements required by Federal and state securities laws for the sale of the Fund’s shares. The Managers also provide the Fund with office space, facilities and equipment.
The Board also considered the quality of the services provided and the quality of the Managers’ resources that are available to the Fund. The Board took account of the fact that the Sub-Adviser has had over fifty years of experience as an investment adviser and that its assets under management rank it among the top mutual fund managers in the United States. The Board evaluated the Sub-Adviser’s advisory, administrative, accounting, legal, compliance

BOARD APPROVAL OF THE FUND’S INVESTMENT ADVISORY AND SUB-ADVISORY AGREEMENTS Unaudited / Continued |
services and risk management, and information the Board has received regarding the experience and professional qualifications of the Managers’ key personnel and the size and functions of its staff. In its evaluation of the quality of the portfolio management services provided, the Board considered the experience of Mark Hamilton, the portfolio manager for the Fund, and the experience of the portfolio managers and the investment performance of the investment companies in which the Fund invests (the “Underlying Funds”). The Board members also considered the totality of their experiences with the Managers as directors or trustees of the Fund and other funds advised by the Managers. The Board considered information regarding the quality of services provided by affiliates of the Managers, which its members have become knowledgeable about in connection with the renewal of the Fund’s service agreements. The Board concluded, in light of the Managers’ experience, reputation, personnel, operations and resources that the Fund benefits from the services provided under the Agreement.
Investment Performance of the Fund, the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser. Throughout the year, the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser provided information on the investment performance of the Fund, the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser, including comparative performance information. The Board also reviewed information, prepared by the Adviser, the Sub-Adviser and the independent consultant, comparing the Fund’s historical performance to its benchmarks and to the performance of other retail moderate allocation funds. The Board noted that the Fund’s three-year performance was better than its category median, although its one-year and five-year performance was below its category median.
Costs of Services by the Adviser. The Board reviewed the fees paid to the Adviser and the other expenses borne by the Fund. The Board also considered the comparability of the fees charged and the services provided to the Fund to the fees and services for other clients or accounts advised by the Adviser. The independent consultant provided comparative data in regard to the fees and expenses of the Fund and other retail front-end load moderate allocation funds with comparable asset levels and distribution features. The Adviser has voluntarily agreed to waive fees and/or reimburse the Fund for certain expenses in order to limit annual fund operating expenses after any fee waiver and/or expense reimbursement (including the combined direct (Fund level) and indirect (Underlying Fund level) expenses, but excluding (i) interest, taxes, dividends tied to short sales, brokerage commissions, and other expenditures which are capitalized in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles; (ii) certain other expenses attributable to, and incurred as a result of, a Fund’s investments; and (iii) other extraordinary expenses (including litigation expenses) not incurred in the ordinary course of the Fund’s business) to annual rates of 1.30% for Class A shares, 2.05% for Class B shares, 2.05% for Class C shares, 1.55% for Class N shares, and 1.05% for Class Y shares, as calculated on the daily net assets of the Fund. This fee waiver and/or expense reimbursement may be amended or withdrawn at any time without prior notice to shareholders. The Adviser has also contractually agreed to waive fees and/or reimburse certain Fund expenses at an annual rate of 0.07% as calculated on the daily net assets of the Fund. This waiver and/or reimbursement is applied after (and in addition to) any other applicable waivers and/or reimbursements. This fee waiver and/or expense reimbursement may not be amended or withdrawn until one year from the date of the Fund’s prospectus. The Board noted that the Fund was charged no actual management fees,

BOARD APPROVAL OF THE FUND’S INVESTMENT ADVISORY AND SUB-ADVISORY AGREEMENTS Unaudited / Continued |
exclusive of Underlying Fund management fees, while certain peer group funds did charge direct management fees. The Fund’s total expenses were lower than its peer group median and its category median.
Economies of Scale and Profits Realized by the Adviser and Sub-Adviser. The Board considered information regarding OFI Global’s costs in serving as the Fund’s investment adviser, including the costs associated with the personnel and systems necessary to manage the Fund, and information regarding the Managers’ profitability from their relationship with the Fund. The Board reviewed whether the Managers may realize economies of scale in managing and supporting the Fund and whether those economies of scale benefit the Fund’s shareholders at the current level of Fund assets in relation to its management fee.
Other Benefits to the Managers. In addition to considering the profits realized by the Managers, the Board considered information that was provided regarding the direct and indirect benefits the Managers receive as a result of their relationship with the Fund, including compensation paid to the Managers’ affiliates. The Board also considered that the Managers must be able to pay and retain experienced professional personnel at competitive rates to provide quality services to the Fund.
Conclusions. These factors were also considered by the independent Trustees meeting separately from the full Board, assisted by experienced counsel to the Fund and to the independent Trustees. Fund counsel and the independent Trustees’ counsel are independent of the Managers within the meaning and intent of the Securities and Exchange Commission Rules.
Based on its review of the information it received and its evaluations described above, the Board, including a majority of the independent Trustees, decided to continue the Agreements through September 30, 2014. In arriving at its decision, the Board did not identify any factor or factors as being more important than others, but considered all of the above information, and considered the terms and conditions of the Agreements, including the management fees, in light of all the surrounding circumstances.

Householding—Delivery of Shareholder Documents
This is to inform you about OppenheimerFunds’ “householding” policy. If more than one member of your household maintains an account in a particular fund, OppenheimerFunds will mail only one copy of the fund’s prospectus (or, if available, the fund’s summary prospectus), annual and semiannual report and privacy policy. The consolidation of these mailings, called householding, benefits your fund through reduced mailing expense, and benefits you by reducing the volume of mail you receive from OppenheimerFunds. Householding does not affect the delivery of your account statements.
Please note that we will continue to household these mailings for as long as you remain an OppenheimerFunds shareholder, unless you request otherwise. If you prefer to receive multiple copies of these materials, please call us at 1.800.CALL-OPP (225-5677). You may also notify us in writing or via email. We will begin sending you individual copies of the prospectus (or, if available, the summary prospectus), reports and privacy policy within 30 days of receiving your request to stop householding.

2 OPPENHEIMER PORTFOLIO SERIES ACTIVE ALLOCATION FUND
During the one-year reporting period ended January 31, 2014, the Fund’s Class A shares (without sales charge) produced a total return of 13.73%. During a period in which equities outperformed fixed-income securities, the Fund outperformed the Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index’s return of 0.12%, but underperformed the S&P 500 Index’s return of 21.52%.
MARKET OVERVIEW
Accommodative monetary policies on the part of central banks in the U.S., Europe and Japan, combined with an improving economic outlook, resulted in a rally among equities and higher-yielding bonds over the first four months of 2013. At the same time, yields of U.S. government securities remained near historical lows due to the Federal Reserve’s (the “Fed’s”) massive bond buying program. These developments drove financial markets higher through the
early spring of 2013. At that time, economic data appeared to confirm that the United States, Europe and Japan had engineered a sustained economic rebound, but investors responded negatively to disappointing economic data from China, India, Brazil, and other emerging markets. The ensuing “flight to quality” toward traditional safe havens produced sharp dislocations in emerging equity, fixed-income and currency markets. In late May, remarks by Fed

chairman Ben Bernanke were widely interpreted as a signal that U.S. monetary policymakers would begin to back away from their quantitative easing program sooner than expected, sparking heightened volatility in financial markets throughout the world. However, market conditions generally stabilized over the summer of 2013. In October, the U.S. Congress managed to reach a bipartisan agreement to raise the national debt ceiling, and did so well ahead of the potential default deadline. While the Fed refrained from reducing its monthly bond purchases in September, in December the Central Bank announced that it would reduce its monthly bond purchases by $10 billion, from $85 billion to $75 billion, starting in January 2014. The Fed also continued to hold short-term interest rates at very low levels throughout the reporting period.
Against this backdrop, equities generally performed well over 2013, with fixed-income producing muted results. While concerns that ongoing downturns in the emerging markets might dampen the U.S. economic recovery resulted in renewed volatility in stock and bond markets over January 2014, corporate earnings growth generally remained strong, and the unemployment rate fell.
FUND REVIEW
At period end, the Fund had roughly 20% of its assets invested in an “active allocation” that seeks to take advantage of short- to
mid-term market conditions, and 80% invested in a “static allocation.” Both allocations are comprised of Oppenheimer funds.
The active allocation portion of the Fund produced positive performance over the reporting period as its positioning exploited the lagging returns in fixed income funds, the strong returns in equities, and the underperformance by gold. The component continued to maintain little exposure to fixed income funds, as it had small allocations to Oppenheimer Core Bond Fund, Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities (“TIPS”) via Oppenheimer Master Inflation Protected Securities Fund, LLC, and Oppenheimer Limited-Term Government Fund. Certain assets of these underlying funds – government and investment grade bonds – did produce positive returns, but very small in comparison to equities this reporting period.
At the same time, the active allocation maintained a tactical overweight to equities with large allocations towards small cap and large cap value funds, including Oppenheimer Main Street Small- & Mid-Cap Fund and Oppenheimer Value Fund. These underlying funds had a positive impact to the performance of the Fund. The active allocation also decreased its allocation to Oppenheimer Developing Markets Fund during the reporting period. Emerging market

equities had a difficult year with several issues impacting the performance of the asset class. These issues included the Fed’s tapering of quantitative easing, negative sentiment around the sustainability of China’s growth, and broad growth disappointment throughout emerging market economies. Although the underlying fund produced a negative absolute return in this environment, it outperformed its benchmark, the MSCI Emerging Markets Index.
On the alternative side, the active allocation continued to maintain a position in catastrophe bonds through an investment in Oppenheimer Master Event-Linked Bond Fund, LLC. Catastrophe bonds performed positively and generally outpaced most fixed income asset classes during the period. The active allocation also reduced its exposure to Oppenheimer Gold & Special Minerals Fund. While the underlying fund produced negative absolute returns this reporting period, reducing our allocation softened the negative impact on this portion of the Fund. Gold stocks and gold bullion remained out of favor among investors over the reporting period, mainly due to their preference for companies that are more leveraged to recovering U.S. and other economies. Although Oppenheimer Gold & Special Minerals Fund underperformed its benchmark, the MSCI World Index, it performed in line with other gold and precious metals indices, such as the Philadelphia Gold & Silver Index.
The static allocation of the Fund also produced a positive absolute return this reporting period. The static allocation had its largest allocation to domestic equity funds, with Oppenheimer Value Fund and Oppenheimer Capital Appreciation Fund being its top two holdings at period end. These two underlying funds provided the strongest contribution to the static allocation’s return on an absolute basis this period. Oppenheimer Value Fund and Oppenheimer Capital Appreciation Fund received their best absolute results from securities in the financials sector and health care sector, respectively. However, they underperformed their benchmarks, the S&P 500 Index and the Russell 1000 Value Index (for Oppenheimer Value Fund), and the S&P 500 Index and the Russell 1000 Growth Index (for Oppenheimer Capital Appreciation Fund). The static allocation had a smaller allocation to Oppenheimer Main Street Small- & Mid-Cap Fund, which also performed positively. The underlying fund’s absolute performance was driven by certain stocks within the health care sector. However, on a relative basis, the underlying fund underperformed its benchmark, the Russell 2500 Index.
The static allocation also received positive contributions to return from its investment in foreign equity funds. Its largest foreign equity funds at period end and its strongest contributors to performance in the space were Oppenheimer International Growth
5 OPPENHEIMER PORTFOLIO SERIES ACTIVE ALLOCATION FUND
Fund and Oppenheimer International Value Fund. Oppenheimer International Growth Fund’s performance was driven largely by holdings in the information technology sector. Oppenheimer International Value Fund received its best absolute performance from stocks in the consumer discretionary sector this reporting period. Both of these underlying funds outperformed their benchmarks, the MSCI All Country World ex-U.S. Index and the MSCI EAFE Index.
The static allocation’s exposure to underlying fixed-income funds produced positive absolute results. Oppenheimer Core Bond Fund was the static allocation’s largest fixed-income investment and produced positive absolute results this reporting period. During the reporting period, the underlying fund maintained limited exposure to government bonds and favored corporate bonds, mortgage-backed securities (“MBS”) and structured products. This positioning benefited the underlying fund’s performance during the period, as higher-yielding fixed income sectors outperformed the performance of U.S. Treasuries. The underlying fund outperformed its benchmarks, the Barclays Credit Index, Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index and the Citigroup Broad Investment Grade Bond Index. The static allocation’s next largest underlying fixed-income funds were Oppenheimer Limited-Term Government Fund and Oppenheimer International Bond Fund. Oppenheimer Limited-Term Government Fund
produced a muted return during the reporting period, as U.S. Government bonds lagged higher-yielding fixed-income sectors and equities. An allocation to MBS did benefit the underlying fund this reporting period. Relative to its benchmarks, the underlying fund outperformed the Barclays U.S. Government Bond Index, but underperformed the Barclays U.S. 1-3 Year Government Bond Index. Oppenheimer International Bond Fund produced a negative return this reporting period. As it has for some time, the underlying fund had a large allocation to emerging market debt. Specifically, the underlying fund’s position in emerging market local currency debt hurt its performance when volatility in the emerging markets climbed amid reactions to the potential for reduced levels of global liquidity. Meanwhile, an allocation into European credit was additive to performance. The underlying fund did outperform its Reference Index, which is a customized weighted index comprised of 50% of the Citigroup Non-U.S. Dollar World Government Bond Index, 30% of the JPMorgan Government Bond Index—Emerging Markets Global Diversified, and 20% of the JPMorgan Emerging Markets Bond Index Global Diversified.
The static allocation’s smaller investment in alternative funds had a slight negative effect on performance this reporting period. Oppenheimer Gold & Special Minerals Fund, Oppenheimer Master Inflation Protected Securities Fund, LLC, and Oppenheimer
6 OPPENHEIMER PORTFOLIO SERIES ACTIVE ALLOCATION FUND
Commodity Strategy Total Return Fund produced negative returns this period. Oppenheimer Global Multi Strategies Fund and Oppenheimer Real Estate Fund were
underlying alternative funds that produced positive absolute results for the Fund this reporting period.

Performance data quoted represents past performance, which does not guarantee future results. The investment return and principal value of an investment in the Fund will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance quoted. Returns do not consider capital gains or income taxes on an individual’s investment. For performance data current to the most recent month-end, visit oppenheimerfunds.com or call 1.800.CALL OPP (225.5677). Fund returns include changes in share price, reinvested distributions, and the applicable sales charge: for Class A shares, the current maximum initial sales charge of 5.75%; for Class B shares, the contingent deferred sales charge of 5% (1-year) and 2% (5-year); and for Class C and N shares, the contingent deferred sales charge of 1% for the 1-year period. There is no sales charge for Class Y shares. Because Class B shares convert to Class A shares 72 months after purchase, the 10-year return for Class B shares uses Class A performance for the period after conversion.
The Fund’s performance is compared to the performance of the S&P 500 Index and the Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index. The S&P 500 Index is an unmanaged index of large-capitalization equity securities that is a measure of the general domestic stock market. The Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index is an unmanaged, broad-based index of investment grade corporate debt. The indices are unmanaged and cannot be purchased directly by investors. Index performance includes reinvestment of income, but does not reflect transaction costs, fees, expenses or taxes. Index performance is shown for illustrative purposes only as a benchmark for the Fund’s performance, and does not predict or depict performance of the Fund. The Fund’s performance reflects the effects of the Fund’s business and operating expenses.
The Fund’s investment strategy and focus can change over time. The mention of specific fund holdings does not constitute a recommendation by OppenheimerFunds, Inc. or its affiliates.

Before investing in any of the Oppenheimer funds, investors should carefully consider a fund’s investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses. Fund prospectuses and summary prospectuses contain this and other information about the funds, and may be obtained by asking your financial advisor, visiting oppenheimerfunds.com, or calling 1.800.CALL OPP (225.5677). Read prospectuses and summary prospectuses carefully before investing.
Shares of Oppenheimer funds are not deposits or obligations of any bank, are not guaranteed by any bank, are not insured by the FDIC or any other agency, and involve investment risks, including the possible loss of the principal amount invested.
10 OPPENHEIMER PORTFOLIO SERIES ACTIVE ALLOCATION FUND
Fund Expenses. As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, which may include sales charges (loads) on purchase payments, contingent deferred sales charges on redemptions; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and service fees; and other Fund expenses. These examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The examples are based on an investment of $1,000.00 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire 6-month period ended January 31, 2014.
Actual Expenses. The first section of the table provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section for the class of shares you hold, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expense that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000.00 (for example, an $8,600.00 account value divided by $1,000.00 = 8.60), then multiply the result by the number in the first section under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes. The second section of the table provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio for each class of shares, and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year for each class before expenses, which is not the 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 Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example for the class of shares you hold with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as front-end or contingent deferred sales charges (loads), or a $12.00 fee imposed annually on accounts valued at less than $500.00 (subject to exceptions described in the Statement of Additional Information). Therefore, the “hypothetical” section of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

Expenses are equal to the Fund’s annualized expense ratio for that class, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 184/365 (to reflect the one-half year period).

26 OPPENHEIMER PORTFOLIO SERIES ACTIVE ALLOCATION FUND
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS January 31, 2014 |
1. Significant Accounting Policies
Oppenheimer Portfolio Series (the “Trust”) is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as a diversified open-end management investment company. Active Allocation Fund (the “Fund”) is a series of the Trust whose investment objective is to seek long-term growth of capital with a secondary objective of current income. The Fund normally invests in a diversified portfolio of Oppenheimer mutual funds (individually, an “Underlying Fund” and collectively, the “Underlying Funds”). The Fund’s investment adviser is OFI Global Asset Management, Inc. (“OFI Global” or the “Manager”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of OppenheimerFunds, Inc. (“OFI” or the “Sub-Adviser”). The Manager has entered into a sub-advisory agreement with OFI.
The Fund offers Class A, Class C, Class N and Class Y shares, and previously offered Class B shares for new purchase through June 29, 2012. Subsequent to that date, no new purchases of Class B shares are permitted, however reinvestment of dividend and/or capital gain distributions and exchanges of Class B shares into and from other Oppenheimer funds will be allowed. Class A shares are sold at their offering price, which is normally net asset value plus a front-end sales charge. Class C and Class N shares are sold, and Class B shares were sold, without a front-end sales charge but may be subject to a contingent deferred sales charge (“CDSC”). Class N shares are sold only through retirement plans. Retirement plans that offer Class N shares may impose charges on those accounts. Class Y shares are sold to certain institutional investors or intermediaries without either a front-end sales charge or a CDSC, however, the intermediaries may impose charges on their accountholders who beneficially own Class Y shares. All classes of shares have identical rights and voting privileges with respect to the Fund in general and exclusive voting rights on matters that affect that class alone. Earnings, net assets and net asset value per share may differ due to each class having its own expenses, such as transfer and shareholder servicing agent fees and shareholder communications, directly attributable to that class. Class A, B, C and N shares have separate distribution and/or service plans under which they pay fees. Class Y shares do not pay such fees. Class B shares will automatically convert to Class A shares 72 months after the date of purchase.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund.
Risks of Investing in the Underlying Funds. Each of the Underlying Funds in which the Fund invests has its own investment risks, and those risks can affect the value of the Fund’s investments and therefore the value of the Fund’s shares. To the extent that the Fund invests more of its assets in one Underlying Fund than in another, the Fund will have greater exposure to the risks of that Underlying Fund.
Investment in Oppenheimer Institutional Money Market Fund. The Fund is permitted to invest daily available cash balances in an affiliated money market fund. The Fund may invest the available cash in Class E shares of Oppenheimer Institutional Money Market Fund (“IMMF”) to seek current income while preserving liquidity. IMMF is a registered open-end management investment company, regulated as a money market fund under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Manager is the investment adviser of IMMF, and the
27 OPPENHEIMER PORTFOLIO SERIES ACTIVE ALLOCATION FUND
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
1. Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
Sub-Adviser provides investment and related advisory services to IMMF. When applicable, the Fund’s investment in IMMF is included in the Statement of Investments. Shares of IMMF are valued at their net asset value per share. As a shareholder, the Fund is subject to its proportional share of IMMF’s Class E expenses, including its management fee.
Investment in Oppenheimer Master Funds. The Fund is permitted to invest in entities sponsored and/or advised by the Manager or an affiliate. Certain of these entities in which the Fund invests are mutual funds registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 that expect to be treated as partnerships for tax purposes, specifically Oppenheimer Master Loan Fund, LLC, Oppenheimer Master Event-Linked Bond Fund, LLC and Oppenheimer Master Inflation Protected Securities Fund, LLC (the “Master Funds”). Each Master Fund has its own investment risks, and those risks can affect the value of the Fund’s investments and therefore the value of the Fund’s shares. To the extent that the Fund invests more of its assets in one Master Fund than in another, the Fund will have greater exposure to the risks of that Master Fund.
The investment objective of Oppenheimer Master Loan Fund, LLC is to seek income. The investment objective of Oppenheimer Master Event-Linked Bond Fund, LLC is to seek total return. The investment objective of Oppenheimer Master Inflation Protected Securities Fund, LLC is to seek total return. The Fund’s investments in the Master Funds are included in the Statement of Investments. The Fund recognizes income and gain/(loss) on its investments in each Master Fund according to its allocated pro-rata share, based on its relative proportion of total outstanding Master Fund shares held, of the total net income earned and the net gain/(loss) realized on investments sold by the Master Funds. As a shareholder, the Fund is subject to its proportional share of the Master Funds’ expenses, including their management fee. The Manager will waive fees and/or reimburse Fund expenses in an amount equal to the indirect management fees incurred through the Fund’s investment in the Master Funds.
Allocation of Income, Expenses, Gains and Losses. Income, expenses (other than those attributable to a specific class), gains and losses are allocated on a daily basis to each class of shares based upon the relative proportion of net assets represented by such class. Operating expenses directly attributable to a specific class are charged against the operations of that class.
Federal Taxes. The Fund intends to comply with provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all of its investment company taxable income, including any net realized gain on investments not offset by capital loss carryforwards, if any, to shareholders. Therefore, no federal income or excise tax provision is required. The Fund files income tax returns in U.S. federal and
28 OPPENHEIMER PORTFOLIO SERIES ACTIVE ALLOCATION FUND

applicable state jurisdictions. The statute of limitations on the Fund’s tax return filings generally remain open for the three preceding fiscal reporting period ends.
The tax components of capital shown in the following table represent distribution requirements the Fund must satisfy under the income tax regulations, losses the Fund may be able to offset against income and gains realized in future years and unrealized appreciation or depreciation of securities and other investments for federal income tax purposes.

1. As of January 31, 2014, the Fund had $700,398,331 of net capital loss carryforwards available to offset future realized capital gains, if any, and thereby reduce future taxable gain distributions. Details of the capital loss carryforwards are included in the table below. Capital loss carryovers with no expiration, if any, must be utilized prior to those with expiration dates.

Total | $ | 700,398,331 |
2. During the fiscal year ended January 31, 2014, the Fund utilized $42,846,696 of capital loss carryforward to offset capital gains realized in that fiscal year.
3. During the fiscal year ended January 31, 2013, the Fund did not utilize any capital loss carryforward.
Net investment income (loss) and net realized gain (loss) may differ for financial statement and tax purposes. The character of dividends and distributions made during the fiscal year from net investment income or net realized gains may differ from their ultimate characterization for federal income tax purposes. Also, due to timing of dividends and distributions, the fiscal year in which amounts are distributed may differ from the fiscal year in which the income or net realized gain was recorded by the Fund.
Accordingly, the following amounts have been reclassified for January 31, 2014. Net assets of the Fund were unaffected by the reclassifications.

The tax character of distributions paid during the years ended January 31, 2014 and January 31, 2013 was as follows:

The aggregate cost of securities and other investments and the composition of unrealized appreciation and depreciation of securities and other investments for federal income tax purposes as of January 31, 2014 are noted in the following table. The primary difference between book and tax appreciation or depreciation of securities and other investments, if applicable, is attributable to the tax deferral of losses or tax realization of financial statement unrealized gain or loss.
Federal tax cost of securities | $ | 1,787,877,847 | ||
Gross unrealized appreciation | $ | 595,532,349 | ||
Gross unrealized depreciation | (17,027,050 | ) | ||
Net unrealized appreciation | $ | 578,505,299 |
Trustees’ Compensation. The Fund has adopted an unfunded retirement plan (the “Plan”) for the Fund’s independent trustees. Benefits are based on years of service and fees paid to each trustee during their period of service. The Plan was frozen with respect to adding new participants effective December 31, 2006 (the “Freeze Date”) and existing Plan Participants as of the Freeze Date will continue to receive accrued benefits under the Plan. Active independent trustees as of the Freeze Date have each elected a distribution method with respect to their benefits under the Plan. During the year ended January 31, 2014, the Fund’s projected benefit obligations, payments to retired trustees and accumulated liability were as follows:
Projected Benefit Obligations Increased | $ | 10,907 | ||
Payments Made to Retired Trustees | 13,246 | |||
Accumulated Liability as of January 31, 2014 | 104,121 |
The Board of Trustees has adopted a compensation deferral plan for independent trustees that enables trustees to elect to defer receipt of all or a portion of the annual compensation they are entitled to receive from the Fund. For purposes of determining the amount owed to the Trustee under the plan, deferred amounts are treated as though equal dollar amounts had been invested in shares of the Fund or in other Oppenheimer funds selected by the Trustee. The Fund purchases shares of the funds selected for deferral by the Trustee in amounts equal to his or her deemed investment, resulting in a Fund asset equal to the deferred compensation liability. Such assets are included as a component of “Other” within the asset section of the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Deferral of trustees’ fees under the plan will not affect the net assets of the Fund, and will not materially affect the Fund’s assets, liabilities or net investment income per share. Amounts will be deferred until distributed in accordance with the compensation deferral plan.
30 OPPENHEIMER PORTFOLIO SERIES ACTIVE ALLOCATION FUND
1. Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends and distributions to shareholders, which are determined in accordance with income tax regulations and may differ from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gain distributions, if any, are declared and paid annually or at other times as deemed necessary by the Manager.
Investment Income. Dividend distributions received from the Underlying Funds are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Upon receipt of notification from an Underlying Fund, and subsequent to the ex-dividend date, some of the dividend income originally recorded by the Fund may be reclassified as a tax return of capital by reducing the cost basis of the Underlying Fund and/or increasing the realized gain on sales of investments in the Underlying Fund.
Custodian Fees. “Custodian fees and expenses” in the Statement of Operations may include interest expense incurred by the Fund on any cash overdrafts of its custodian account during the period. Such cash overdrafts may result from the effects of failed trades in portfolio securities and from cash outflows resulting from unanticipated shareholder redemption activity. The Fund pays interest to its custodian on such cash overdraft at a rate equal to the 1 Month LIBOR Rate plus 2.00%. The “Reduction to custodian expenses” line item, if applicable, represents earnings on cash balances maintained by the Fund during the period. Such interest expense and other custodian fees may be paid with these earnings.
Security Transactions. Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Realized gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost.
Indemnifications. The Fund’s organizational documents provide current and former trustees and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the Fund. In the normal course of business, the Fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against the Fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.
Other. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
2. Securities Valuation
The Fund calculates the net asset value of its shares based upon the net asset value of the applicable Underlying Fund. For each Underlying Fund, the net asset value per share for a class of shares is determined as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (the “Exchange”), normally 4:00 P.M. Eastern time, on each day the Exchange is open for trading by dividing the value of the Underlying Fund’s net assets attributable to that class by the number of outstanding shares of that class on that day.

2. Securities Valuation (Continued)
The Fund’s Board has adopted procedures for the valuation of the Fund’s securities and has delegated the day-to-day responsibility for valuation determinations under those procedures to the Manager. The Manager has established a Valuation Committee which is responsible for determining a “fair valuation” for any security for which market quotations are not “readily available.” The Valuation Committee’s fair valuation determinations are subject to review, approval and ratification by the Fund’s Board at its next regularly scheduled meeting covering the calendar quarter in which the fair valuation was determined.
Valuations Methods and Inputs
To determine their net asset values, the Underlying Funds’ assets are valued primarily on the basis of current market quotations as generally supplied by third party portfolio pricing services or by dealers. Such market quotations are typically based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical securities or other observable market inputs.
If a market value or price cannot be determined for a security using the methodologies described above, or if, in the “good faith” opinion of the Manager, the market value or price obtained does not constitute a “readily available market quotation,” or a significant event has occurred that would materially affect the value of the security the security is fair valued either (i) by a standardized fair valuation methodology applicable to the security type or the significant event as previously approved by the Valuation Committee and the Fund’s Board or (ii) as determined in good faith by the Manager’s Valuation Committee. The Valuation Committee considers all relevant facts that are reasonably available, through either public information or information available to the Manager, when determining the fair value of a security. Fair value determinations by the Manager are subject to review, approval and ratification by the Fund’s Board at its next regularly scheduled meeting covering the calendar quarter in which the fair valuation was determined. The methodologies used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those Underlying Funds.
To assess the continuing appropriateness of security valuations, the Manager, or its third party service provider who is subject to oversight by the Manager, regularly compares prior day prices, prices on comparable securities, and sale prices to the current day prices and challenges those prices exceeding certain tolerance levels with the third party pricing service or broker source. For those securities valued by fair valuations, whether through a standardized fair valuation methodology or a fair valuation determination, the Valuation Committee reviews and affirms the reasonableness of the valuations based on such methodologies and fair valuation determinations on a regular basis after considering all relevant information that is reasonably available.

Classifications
Each investment asset or liability of the Fund is assigned a level at measurement date based on the significance and source of the inputs to its valuation. Various data inputs are used in determining the value of each of the Fund’s investments as of the reporting period end. These data inputs are categorized in the following hierarchy under applicable financial accounting standards:
1) Level 1-unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (including securities actively traded on a securities exchange)
2) Level 2-inputs other than unadjusted quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (such as unadjusted quoted prices for similar assets and market corroborated inputs such as interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risks, etc.)
3) Level 3-significant unobservable inputs (including the Manager’s own judgments about assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability).
The inputs used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities.
The Fund classifies each of its investments in those Underlying Funds which are publicly offered and reported on an exchange as Level 1, and those Underlying Funds which are not publicly offered as Level 2, without consideration as to the classification level of the specific investments held by the Underlying Funds.
The table below categorizes amounts that are included in the Fund’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities as of January 31, 2014 based on valuation input level:

5. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates
Management Fees.

The weighted indirect management fees collected from the Fund’s investment in the Underlying Funds, as a percent of average daily net assets of the
34 OPPENHEIMER PORTFOLIO SERIES ACTIVE ALLOCATION FUND
5. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates (Continued)
Fund for the year ended January 31, 2014 was 0.57%. This amount is gross of any waivers or reimbursements of management fees implemented at the Underlying Fund level. In addition, the Fund pays the Manager an asset allocation fee equal to an annual rate of 0.10% of the first $3 billion of the daily net assets of the Fund and 0.08% of the daily net assets in excess of $3 billion.
Sub-Adviser Fees. The Manager has retained the Sub-Adviser to provide the day-to-day portfolio management of the Fund. Under the Sub-Advisory Agreement, the Manager pays the Sub-Adviser an annual fee in monthly installments, equal to a percentage of the investment management fee collected by the Manager from the Fund, which shall be calculated after any investment management fee waivers. The fee paid to the Sub-Adviser is paid by the Manager, not by the Fund.
Transfer Agent Fees. OFI Global (the “Transfer Agent”) serves as the transfer and shareholder servicing agent for the Fund. Fees incurred by the Fund with respect to these services are detailed in the Statement of Operations.
Sub-Transfer Agent Fees. The Transfer Agent has retained Shareholder Services, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of OFI (the “Sub-Transfer Agent”), to provide the day-to-day transfer agent and shareholder servicing of the Fund. Under the Sub-Transfer Agency Agreement, the Transfer Agent pays the Sub-Transfer Agent an annual fee in monthly installments, equal to a percentage of the transfer agent fee collected by the Transfer Agent from the Fund, which shall be calculated after any applicable fee waivers. The fee paid to the Sub-Transfer Agent is paid by the Transfer Agent, not by the Fund.
Distribution and Service Plan (12b-1) Fees. Under its General Distributor’s Agreement with the Fund, OppenheimerFunds Distributor, Inc. (the “Distributor”) acts as the Fund’s principal underwriter in the continuous public offering of the Fund’s classes of shares.
Service Plan for Class A Shares. The Fund has adopted a Service Plan (the “Plan”) for Class A shares under Rule 12b-1 of the Investment Company Act of 1940. Under the Plan, the Fund reimburses the Distributor for a portion of its costs incurred for services provided to accounts that hold Class A shares. Reimbursement is made periodically at an annual rate of up to 0.25% of the daily net assets of Class A shares of the Fund. The Distributor currently uses all of those fees to pay dealers, brokers, banks and other financial institutions periodically for providing personal service and maintenance of accounts of their customers that hold Class A shares. Any unreimbursed expenses the Distributor incurs with respect to Class A shares in any fiscal year cannot be recovered in subsequent periods. Fees incurred by the Fund under the Plan are detailed in the Statement of Operations.
Distribution and Service Plans for Class B, Class C and Class N Shares. The Fund has adopted Distribution and Service Plans (the “Plans”) for Class B, Class C and Class N shares under Rule 12b-1 of the Investment Company Act of 1940 to compensate the

5. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates (Continued)
Distributor for its services in connection with the distribution of those shares and servicing accounts. Under the Plans, the Fund pays the Distributor an annual asset-based sales charge of 0.75% on Class B and Class C shares daily net assets and 0.25% on Class N shares daily net assets. The Distributor also receives a service fee of 0.25% per year under each plan. If either the Class B, Class C or Class N plan is terminated by the Fund or by the shareholders of a class, the Board of Trustees and its independent trustees must determine whether the Distributor shall be entitled to payment from the Fund of all or a portion of the service fee and/or asset-based sales charge in respect to shares sold prior to the effective date of such termination. Fees incurred by the Fund under the Plans are detailed in the Statement of Operations. The Distributor determines its uncompensated expenses under the Plans at calendar quarter ends. The Distributor’s aggregate uncompensated expenses under the Plans at December 31, 2013 were as follows:
Class C | $ | 8,275,759 | ||
Class N | 2,751,083 |
Sales Charges. Front-end sales charges and contingent deferred sales charges (“CDSC”) do not represent expenses of the Fund. They are deducted from the proceeds of sales of Fund shares prior to investment or from redemption proceeds prior to remittance, as applicable. The sales charges retained by the Distributor from the sale of shares and the CDSC retained by the Distributor on the redemption of shares is shown in the following table for the period indicated.

The expense limitations do not include extraordinary expenses and other expenses not incurred in the ordinary course of the Fund’s business. Notwithstanding the foregoing limits, the Manager is not required to waive or reimburse Fund expenses in excess of the amount of indirect management fees earned from investments in the Underlying Funds.
The Manager has also contractually agreed to waive fees and/or reimburse certain Fund expenses at an annual rate of 0.04% as calculated on the daily net assets of the Fund. This waiver and/or reimbursement is applied after (and in addition to) any other applicable waiver and/or expense reimbursements that may apply.

7. Pending Litigation
Since 2009, seven class action lawsuits have been pending in the U.S. District Court for the District of Colorado against OppenheimerFunds, Inc. (“OFI”), OppenheimerFunds Distributor, Inc., the Fund’s principal underwriter and distributor (the “Distributor”), and certain funds
38 OPPENHEIMER PORTFOLIO SERIES ACTIVE ALLOCATION FUND
7. Pending Litigation (Continued)
(but not including the Fund) advised by OFI Global Asset Management, Inc. and distributed by the Distributor (the “Defendant Funds”). The lawsuits also name as defendants certain officers and current and former trustees of the respective Defendant Funds. The lawsuits raise claims under federal securities law and allege, among other things, that the disclosure documents of the respective Defendant Funds contained misrepresentations and omissions and that the respective Defendant Funds’ investment policies were not followed. The plaintiffs in these actions seek unspecified damages, equitable relief and awards of attorneys’ fees and litigation expenses. The Defendant Funds’ Boards of Trustees have also engaged counsel to represent the Funds and the present and former Independent Trustees named in those suits. On March 5, 2014, the parties in six of these lawsuits executed stipulations and agreements of settlement resolving those actions. The settlements are subject to a variety of contingencies, including approval by the court. The settlements do not resolve a seventh outstanding lawsuit relating to Oppenheimer California Municipal Fund.
Other class action and individual lawsuits have been filed since 2008 in various state and federal courts against OFI and certain of its affiliates by investors seeking to recover investments they allegedly lost as a result of the “Ponzi” scheme run by Bernard L. Madoff and his firm, Bernard L. Madoff Investment Securities, LLC (“BLMIS”). Plaintiffs in these suits allege that they suffered losses as a result of their investments in several funds managed by an affiliate of OFI and assert a variety of claims, including breach of fiduciary duty, fraud, negligent misrepresentation, unjust enrichment, and violation of federal and state securities laws and regulations, among others. They seek unspecified damages, equitable relief and awards of attorneys’ fees and litigation expenses. Neither the Distributor, nor any of the Oppenheimer mutual funds, their independent trustees or directors are named as defendants in these lawsuits. None of the Oppenheimer mutual funds invested in any funds or accounts managed by Madoff or BLMIS. On February 28, 2011, a stipulation of partial settlement of three groups of consolidated putative class action lawsuits relating to these matters was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. On August 19, 2011, the court entered an order and final judgment approving the settlement as fair, reasonable and adequate. In September 2011, certain parties filed notices of appeal from the court’s order approving the settlement. The settlement does not resolve other outstanding lawsuits against OFI and its affiliates relating to BLMIS.
On April 16, 2010, a lawsuit was filed in New York state court against (i) OFI, (ii) an affiliate of OFI and (iii) AAArdvark IV Funding Limited (“AAArdvark IV”), an entity advised by OFI’s affiliate, in connection with investments made by the plaintiffs in AAArdvark IV. Plaintiffs alleged breach of contract and common law fraud claims against the defendants and sought compensatory damages, costs and disbursements, including attorney fees. On April 11, 2013, the court granted defendants’ motion for summary judgment, dismissing plaintiffs’ fraud claim with prejudice and dismissing their contract claim without prejudice, and granted plaintiffs leave to replead their contract claim to assert a cause of action for specific performance within 30 days. On May 9, 2013, plaintiffs filed a notice of appeal from the court’s dismissal order. On January 7, 2014, the appellate court affirmed the trial court’s dismissal order. On July 15, 2011, a lawsuit was filed in New York state court against OFI, an affiliate of OFI and AAArdvark Funding Limited (“AAArdvark I”), an entity advised by OFI’s
39 OPPENHEIMER PORTFOLIO SERIES ACTIVE ALLOCATION FUND

7. Pending Litigation (Continued)
affiliate, in connection with investments made by the plaintiffs in AAArdvark I. The complaint alleges breach of contract and common law fraud claims against the defendants and seeks compensatory damages, costs and disbursements, including attorney fees. On November 9, 2011, a lawsuit was filed in New York state court against OFI, an affiliate of OFI and AAArdvark XS Funding Limited (“AAArdvark XS”), an entity advised by OFI’s affiliate, in connection with investments made by the plaintiffs in AAArdvark XS. The complaint alleged breach of contract against the defendants and sought compensatory damages, costs and disbursements, including attorney fees. On November 8, 2013, the parties filed a stipulation of discontinuance dismissing the lawsuit with prejudice.
OFI believes the lawsuits and appeals described above are without legal merit and, with the exception of actions it has settled, is defending against them vigorously. While it is premature to render any opinion as to the outcome in these lawsuits, or whether any costs that the Defendant Funds may bear in defending the suits might not be reimbursed by insurance, OFI believes that these suits should not impair the ability of OFI or the Distributor to perform their respective duties to the Fund, and that the outcome of all of the suits together should not have any material effect on the operations of any of the Oppenheimer mutual funds.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM |
The Board of Trustees and Shareholders of Oppenheimer Portfolio Series:
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Active Allocation Fund (a series of Oppenheimer Portfolio Series), including the statement of investments, as of January 31, 2014, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the years in the two-year period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the years in the five-year period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of January 31, 2014, by correspondence with the custodian, transfer agent and brokers, or by other appropriate auditing procedures where replies from brokers were not received. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Active Allocation Fund as of January 31, 2014, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the years in the two-year period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the years in the five-year period then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

The maximum amount allowable but not less than $21,525,017 of the Fund’s fiscal year taxable income may be eligible for the lower individual income tax rates. In early 2014, shareholders of record received information regarding the percentage of distributions that are eligible for lower individual income tax rates.
Recent tax legislation allows a regulated investment company to designate distributions not designated as capital gain distributions, as either interest related dividends or short-term capital gain dividends, both of which are exempt from the U.S. withholding tax applicable to non U.S. taxpayers. For the fiscal year ended January 31, 2014, the maximum amount allowable but not less than $6,565,050 of the ordinary distributions to be paid by the Fund qualifies as an interest related dividend.
The Fund has elected the application of Section 853 of the Internal Revenue Code to permit shareholders to take a federal income tax credit or deduction, at their option, on a per share basis. The maximum amount allowable but not less than $872,264 of foreign income taxes were paid by the Fund during the fiscal year ended January 31, 2014. A separate notice will be mailed to each shareholder, which will reflect the proportionate share of such foreign taxes which must be treated by shareholders as gross income for federal income tax purposes.
Gross income of the maximum amount allowable but not less than $8,486,230 was derived from sources within foreign countries or possessions of the United States.
The foregoing information is presented to assist shareholders in reporting distributions received from the Fund to the Internal Revenue Service. Because of the complexity of the federal regulations which may affect your individual tax return and the many variations in state and local tax regulations, we recommend that you consult your tax advisor for specific guidance.

BOARD APPROVAL OF THE FUND’S INVESTMENT ADVISORY AND SUB-ADVISORY AGREEMENTS Unaudited |
The Fund has entered into an investment advisory agreement with OFI Global Asset Management, Inc. (“OFI Global” or the “Adviser”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of OppenheimerFunds, Inc. (“OFI” or the “Sub-Adviser”) (“OFI Global” and “OFI” together the “Managers”) and OFI Global has entered into a sub-advisory agreement with OFI whereby OFI provides investment sub-advisory services to the Fund (collectively, the “Agreements”). Each year, the Board of Trustees (the “Board”), including a majority of the independent Trustees, is required to determine whether to renew the Agreements. The Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, requires that the Board request and evaluate, and that the Managers provide, such information as may be reasonably necessary to evaluate the terms of the Agreements. The Board employs an independent consultant to prepare a report that provides information, including comparative information that the Board requests for that purpose. In addition to in-person meetings focused on this evaluation, the Board receives information throughout the year regarding Fund services, fees, expenses and performance.
The Adviser, Sub-Adviser and the independent consultant provided information to the Board on the following factors: (i) the nature, quality and extent of the Managers’ services, (ii) the investment performance of the Fund and the Managers, (iii) the fees and expenses of the Fund, including comparative expense information, (iv) the profitability of the Managers and their affiliates, including an analysis of the cost of providing services, (v) whether economies of scale are realized as the Fund grows and whether fee levels reflect these economies of scale for Fund investors and (vi) other benefits to the Managers from their relationship with the Fund. The Board was aware that there are alternatives to retaining the Managers.
Outlined below is a summary of the principal information considered by the Board as well as the Board’s conclusions.
Nature, Quality and Extent of Services. The Board considered information about the nature, quality and extent of the services provided to the Fund and information regarding the Managers’ key personnel who provide such services. The Sub-Adviser’s duties include providing the Fund with the services of the portfolio managers and the Sub-Adviser’s investment team, who provide research, analysis and other advisory services in regard to the Fund’s investments; securities trading services; oversight of third-party service providers; monitoring compliance with applicable Fund policies and procedures and adherence to the Fund’s investment restrictions; and risk management. The Managers are responsible for providing certain administrative services to the Fund as well. Those services include providing and supervising all administrative and clerical personnel who are necessary in order to provide effective corporate administration for the Fund; compiling and maintaining records with respect to the Fund’s operations; preparing and filing reports required by the Securities and Exchange Commission; preparing periodic reports regarding the operations of the Fund for its shareholders; preparing proxy materials for shareholder meetings; and preparing the registration statements required by Federal and state securities laws for the sale of the Fund’s shares. The Managers also provide the Fund with office space, facilities and equipment.
The Board also considered the quality of the services provided and the quality of the Managers’ resources that are available to the Fund. The Board took account of the fact that the Sub-Adviser has had over fifty years of experience as an investment adviser and that its assets under management rank it among the top mutual fund managers in the United States. The Board evaluated the Sub-Adviser’s advisory, administrative, accounting, legal, compliance

services and risk management, and information the Board has received regarding the experience and professional qualifications of the Managers’ key personnel and the size and functions of its staff. In its evaluation of the quality of the portfolio management services provided, the Board considered the experience of Mark Hamilton and Caleb Wong, the portfolio managers for the Fund, and the experience of the portfolio managers and the investment performance of the investment companies in which the Fund invests (the “Underlying Funds”). The Board members also considered the totality of their experiences with the Managers as directors or trustees of the Fund and other funds advised by the Managers. The Board considered information regarding the quality of services provided by affiliates of the Managers, which its members have become knowledgeable about in connection with the renewal of the Fund’s service agreements. The Board concluded, in light of the Managers’ experience, reputation, personnel, operations and resources that the Fund benefits from the services provided under the Agreement.
Investment Performance of the Fund, the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser. Throughout the year, the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser provided information on the investment performance of the Fund, the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser, including comparative performance information. The Board also reviewed information, prepared by the Adviser, the Sub-Adviser and the independent consultant, comparing the Fund’s historical performance to its benchmarks and to the performance of other retail aggressive allocation funds. The Board noted that the Fund’s one-year, three-year and five-year performance was below its category median.
Costs of Services by the Adviser. The Board reviewed the fees paid to the Adviser and the other expenses borne by the Fund. The Board also considered the comparability of the fees charged and the services provided to the Fund to the fees and services for other clients or accounts advised by the Adviser. The independent consultant provided comparative data in regard to the fees and expenses of the Fund and other retail front-end load aggressive allocation funds with comparable asset levels and distribution features. After discussions with the Board, the Adviser has voluntarily agreed to waive fees and/or reimburse the Fund for certain expenses in order to limit “Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses After Fee Waiver and/or Expense Reimbursement” (including the combined direct (Fund level) and indirect (underlying Fund level) expenses, but excluding (i) interest, taxes, dividends tied to short sales, brokerage commissions, and other expenditures which are capitalized in accordance with the generally accepted accounting principles; (ii) certain other expenses attributable to, and incurred as a result of, a Fund’s investments; and (iii) other extraordinary expenses (including litigation expenses) not incurred in the ordinary course of the Fund’s business to annual rates of 1.45% for Class A shares, 2.20% for Class B shares and Class C shares, 1.70% for Class N shares, and 1.20% for Class Y shares as calculated on the daily net assets of the Fund. This waiver and/or reimbursement may be amended or withdrawn at any time without prior notice to shareholders. The Adviser has also contractually agreed to waive fees and/or reimburse certain Fund expenses at an annual rate of 0.04% as calculated on the daily net assets of the Fund. This waiver and/or reimbursement is applied after (and in addition to) any other applicable waivers and/or expense reimbursements that may apply, and may not be amended or withdrawn for one year from the date of the Fund’s prospectus, unless approved by the Board. The Board noted that the Fund’s contractual management fee and total expenses were lower than its peer group median and its category median.
44 OPPENHEIMER PORTFOLIO SERIES ACTIVE ALLOCATION FUND
Economies of Scale and Profits Realized by the Adviser and Sub-Adviser. The Board considered information regarding the Managers’ costs in serving as the Fund’s investment adviser and sub-adviser, including the costs associated with the personnel and systems necessary to manage the Fund, and information regarding the Managers’ profitability from their relationship with the Fund. The Board reviewed whether the Managers may realize economies of scale in managing and supporting the Fund. The Board noted that the Fund currently has management fee breakpoints, which are intended to share with Fund shareholders economies of scale that may exist as the Fund’s assets grow.
Other Benefits to the Managers. In addition to considering the profits realized by the Managers, the Board considered information that was provided regarding the direct and indirect benefits the Managers receive as a result of their relationship with the Fund, including compensation paid to the Managers’ affiliates. The Board also considered that the Managers must be able to pay and retain experienced professional personnel at competitive rates to provide quality services to the Fund.
Conclusions. These factors were also considered by the independent Trustees meeting separately from the full Board, assisted by experienced counsel to the Fund and to the independent Trustees. Fund counsel and the independent Trustees’ counsel are independent of the Managers within the meaning and intent of the Securities and Exchange Commission Rules.
Based on its review of the information it received and its evaluations described above, the Board, including a majority of the independent Trustees, decided to continue the Agreements through September 30, 2014. In arriving at its decision, the Board did not identify any factor or factors as being more important than others, but considered all of the above information, and considered the terms and conditions of the Agreements, including the management fees, in light of all the surrounding circumstances.

Householding—Delivery of Shareholder Documents
This is to inform you about OppenheimerFunds’ “householding” policy. If more than one member of your household maintains an account in a particular fund, OppenheimerFunds will mail only one copy of the fund’s prospectus (or, if available, the fund’s summary prospectus), annual and semiannual report and privacy policy. The consolidation of these mailings, called householding, benefits your fund through reduced mailing expense, and benefits you by reducing the volume of mail you receive from OppenheimerFunds. Householding does not affect the delivery of your account statements.
Please note that we will continue to household these mailings for as long as you remain an OppenheimerFunds shareholder, unless you request otherwise. If you prefer to receive multiple copies of these materials, please call us at 1.800.CALL-OPP (225-5677). You may also notify us in writing or via email. We will begin sending you individual copies of the prospectus (or, if available, the summary prospectus), reports and privacy policy within 30 days of receiving your request to stop householding.

Performance data quoted represents past performance, which does not guarantee future results. The investment return and principal value of an investment in the Fund will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Fund returns include changes in share price, reinvested distributions, and a 5.75% maximum applicable sales charge except where “without sales charge” is indicated. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance quoted. Returns do not consider capital gains or income taxes on an individual’s investment. For performance data current to the most recent month-end, visit oppenheimerfunds.com or call 1.800.CALL OPP (225.5677).
2 OPPENHEIMER PORTFOLIO SERIES EQUITY INVESTOR FUND
During the one-year reporting period ended January 31, 2014, the Fund’s Class A shares (without sales charge) produced a total return of 16.95%. During a period in which domestic equities outperformed foreign equities, the Fund outperformed the MSCI World Index, which returned 16.07%, but underperformed the S&P 500 Index, which returned 21.52%.
MARKET OVERVIEW
Accommodative monetary policies on the part of central banks in the U.S., Europe and Japan, combined with an improving economic outlook, resulted in a rally among equities and higher-yielding bonds over the first four months of 2013. At the same time, yields of U.S. government securities remained near historical lows due to the Federal Reserve’s (the “Fed’s”) massive bond buying program. These developments drove financial markets higher through the early spring of 2013. At that time, economic data appeared to confirm
that the United States, Europe and Japan had engineered a sustained economic rebound, but investors responded negatively to disappointing economic data from China, India, Brazil, and other emerging markets. The ensuing “flight to quality” toward traditional safe havens produced sharp dislocations in emerging equity, fixed-income and currency markets. In late May, remarks by Fed chairman Ben Bernanke were widely interpreted as a signal that U.S. monetary

policymakers would begin to back away from their quantitative easing program sooner than expected, sparking heightened volatility in financial markets throughout the world. However, market conditions generally stabilized over the summer of 2013. In October, the U.S. Congress managed to reach a bipartisan agreement to raise the national debt ceiling, and did so well ahead of the potential default deadline. While the Fed refrained from reducing its monthly bond purchases in September, in December the Central Bank announced that it would reduce its monthly bond purchases by $10 billion, from $85 billion to $75 billion, starting in January 2014. The Fed also continued to hold short-term interest rates at very low levels throughout the reporting period.
Against this backdrop, equities generally performed well over 2013, with fixed-income producing muted results. While concerns that ongoing downturns in the emerging markets might dampen the U.S. economic recovery resulted in renewed volatility in stock and bond markets over January 2014, corporate earnings growth generally remained strong, and the unemployment rate fell.
FUND REVIEW
During the reporting period, Oppenheimer Value Fund and Oppenheimer Capital Appreciation Fund were the Fund’s top domestic equity holdings and provided the strongest contribution to the Fund’s return on an absolute basis. Oppenheimer Value Fund and Oppenheimer Capital Appreciation Fund received their best absolute results from securities in the financials sector and health
care sector, respectively. However, they underperformed their benchmarks, the S&P 500 Index and the Russell 1000 Value Index (for Oppenheimer Value Fund), and the S&P 500 Index and the Russell 1000 Growth Index (for Oppenheimer Capital Appreciation Fund). An investment in Oppenheimer Main Street Small- & Mid-Cap Fund also performed positively. The underlying fund’s absolute performance was driven by certain stocks within the health care sector. However, on a relative basis, the underlying fund underperformed its benchmark, the Russell 2500 Index.
The Fund’s two largest foreign equity holdings, Oppenheimer International Growth Fund and Oppenheimer International Value Fund, produced positive results this reporting period. Oppenheimer International Growth Fund’s performance was driven largely by holdings in the information technology sector. Oppenheimer International Value Fund received its best absolute performance from stocks in the consumer discretionary sector this reporting period. Both of these underlying funds outperformed their benchmarks, the MSCI All Country World ex-U.S. Index and the MSCI EAFE Index. Also benefiting the Fund’s performance was an investment in Oppenheimer International Small Company Fund, which had a strong reporting period and outperformed its benchmarks, the MSCI All Country World Ex U.S. Small Cap Index and the MSCI EAFE Index. The underlying fund received its best contribution to return from investments in the
4 OPPENHEIMER PORTFOLIO SERIES EQUITY INVESTOR FUND
health care and consumer discretionary sectors.
Detracting slightly from performance this reporting period was the Fund’s investment in Oppenheimer Developing Markets Fund. Emerging market equities had a difficult year with several issues impacting the performance of the asset class. These issues
included the Fed’s tapering of quantitative easing, negative sentiment around the sustainability of China’s growth, and broad growth disappointment throughout emerging market economies. Although the underlying fund produced a negative absolute return in this environment, it outperformed its benchmark, the MSCI Emerging Markets Index.

Performance data quoted represents past performance, which does not guarantee future results. The investment return and principal value of an investment in the Fund will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance quoted. Returns do not consider capital gains or income taxes on an individual’s investment. For performance data current to the most recent month-end, visit oppenheimerfunds.com or call 1.800.CALL OPP (225.5677). Fund returns include changes in share price, reinvested distributions, and the applicable sales charge: for Class A shares, the current maximum initial sales charge of 5.75%; for Class B shares, the contingent deferred sales charge of 5% (1-year) and 2% (5-year); and for Class C and N shares, the contingent deferred sales charge of 1% for the 1-year period. There is no sales charge for Class Y shares. Because Class B shares convert to Class A shares 72 months after purchase, the 10-year return for Class B shares uses Class A performance for the period after conversion.
The Fund’s performance is compared to the performance of the S&P 500 Index and the MSCI World Index. The S&P 500 Index is an unmanaged index of large-capitalization equity securities that is a measure of the general domestic stock market. The MSCI World Index is designed to measure the equity market performance of developed markets. The indices are unmanaged and cannot be purchased directly by investors. Index performance includes reinvestment of income, but does not reflect transaction costs, fees, expenses or taxes. Index performance is shown for illustrative purposes only as a benchmark for the Fund’s performance, and does not predict or depict performance of the Fund. The Fund’s performance reflects the effects of the Fund’s business and operating expenses.
The Fund’s investment strategy and focus can change over time. The mention of specific fund holdings does not constitute a recommendation by OppenheimerFunds, Inc. or its affiliates.

Before investing in any of the Oppenheimer funds, investors should carefully consider a fund’s investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses. Fund prospectuses and summary prospectuses contain this and other information about the funds, and may be obtained by asking your financial advisor, visiting oppenheimerfunds.com, or calling 1.800.CALL OPP (225.5677). Read prospectuses and summary prospectuses carefully before investing.
Shares of Oppenheimer funds are not deposits or obligations of any bank, are not guaranteed by any bank, are not insured by the FDIC or any other agency, and involve investment risks, including the possible loss of the principal amount invested.
8 OPPENHEIMER PORTFOLIO SERIES EQUITY INVESTOR FUND
Fund Expenses. As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, which may include sales charges (loads) on purchase payments, contingent deferred sales charges on redemptions; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and service fees; and other Fund expenses. These examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The examples are based on an investment of $1,000.00 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire 6-month period ended January 31, 2014.
Actual Expenses. The first section of the table provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section for the class of shares you hold, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expense that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000.00 (for example, an $8,600.00 account value divided by $1,000.00 = 8.60), then multiply the result by the number in the first section under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes. The second section of the table provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio for each class of shares, and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year for each class before expenses, which is not the 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 Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example for the class of shares you hold with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as front-end or contingent deferred sales charges (loads), or a $12.00 fee imposed annually on accounts valued at less than $500.00 (subject to exceptions described in the Statement of Additional Information). Therefore, the “hypothetical” section of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

Expenses are equal to the Fund’s annualized expense ratio for that class, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 184/365 (to reflect the one-half year period). Those annualized expense ratios, excluding indirect expenses from affiliated funds, based on the 6-month period ended January 31, 2014 are as follows:

Some of these undertakings may be modified or terminated at any time, as indicated in the Fund’s prospectus. The “Financial Highlights” tables in the Fund’s financial statements, included in this report, also show the gross expense ratios, without such waivers or reimbursements and reduction to custodian expenses, if applicable.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS January 31, 2014 | ||
1. Significant Accounting Policies
Oppenheimer Portfolio Series (the “Trust”) is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as a diversified open-end management investment company. Equity Investor Fund (the “Fund”) is a series of the Trust whose investment objective is to seek long-term growth of capital. The Fund normally invests in a diversified portfolio of Oppenheimer mutual funds (individually, an “Underlying Fund” and collectively, the “Underlying Funds”). The Fund’s investment adviser is OFI Global Asset Management, Inc. (“OFI Global” or the “Manager”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of OppenheimerFunds, Inc. (“OFI” or the “Sub-Adviser”). The Manager has entered into a sub-advisory agreement with OFI.
The Fund offers Class A, Class C, Class N and Class Y shares, and previously offered Class B shares for new purchase through June 29, 2012. Subsequent to that date, no new purchases of Class B shares are permitted, however reinvestment of dividend and/or capital gain distributions and exchanges of Class B shares into and from other Oppenheimer funds will be allowed. Class A shares are sold at their offering price, which is normally net asset value plus a front-end sales charge. Class C and Class N shares are sold, and Class B shares were sold, without a front-end sales charge but may be subject to a contingent deferred sales charge (“CDSC”). Class N shares are sold only through retirement plans. Retirement plans that offer Class N shares may impose charges on those accounts. Class Y shares are sold to certain institutional investors or intermediaries without either a front-end sales charge or a CDSC, however, the intermediaries may impose charges on their accountholders who beneficially own Class Y shares. All classes of shares have identical rights and voting privileges with respect to the Fund in general and exclusive voting rights on matters that affect that class alone. Earnings, net assets and net asset value per share may differ due to each class having its own expenses, such as transfer and shareholder servicing agent fees and shareholder communications, directly attributable to that class. Class A, B, C and N shares have separate distribution and/or service plans under which they pay fees. Class Y shares do not pay such fees. Class B shares will automatically convert to Class A shares 72 months after the date of purchase.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund.
Risks of Investing in the Underlying Funds. Each of the Underlying Funds in which the Fund invests has its own investment risks, and those risks can affect the value of the Fund’s investments and therefore the value of the Fund’s shares. To the extent that the Fund invests more of its assets in one Underlying Fund than in another, the Fund will have greater exposure to the risks of that Underlying Fund.
Allocation of Income, Expenses, Gains and Losses. Income, expenses (other than those attributable to a specific class), gains and losses are allocated on a daily basis to each class of shares based upon the relative proportion of net assets represented by such class. Operating expenses directly attributable to a specific class are charged against the operations of that class.

1. Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
Federal Taxes. The Fund intends to comply with provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all of its investment company taxable income, including any net realized gain on investments not offset by capital loss carryforwards, if any, to shareholders. Therefore, no federal income or excise tax provision is required. The Fund files income tax returns in U.S. federal and applicable state jurisdictions. The statute of limitations on the Fund’s tax return filings generally remain open for the three preceding fiscal reporting period ends.
The tax components of capital shown in the following table represent distribution requirements the Fund must satisfy under the income tax regulations, losses the Fund may be able to offset against income and gains realized in future years and unrealized appreciation or depreciation of securities and other investments for federal income tax purposes.

1. As of January 31, 2014, the Fund had $81,211,779 of net capital loss carryforwards available to offset future realized capital gains, if any, and thereby reduce future taxable gain distributions. Details of the capital loss carryforwards are included in the table below. Capital loss carryovers with no expiration, if any, must be utilized prior to those with expiration dates.

2. During the fiscal year ended January 31, 2014, the Fund utilized $7,941,916 of capital loss carryforward to offset capital gains realized in that fiscal year.
3. During the fiscal year ended January 31, 2013, the Fund utilized $3,441,641 of capital loss carryforward to offset capital gains realized in that fiscal year.
Net investment income (loss) and net realized gain (loss) may differ for financial statement and tax purposes. The character of dividends and distributions made during the fiscal year from net investment income or net realized gains may differ from their ultimate characterization for federal income tax purposes. Also, due to timing of dividends and distributions, the fiscal year in which amounts are distributed may differ from the fiscal year in which the income or net realized gain was recorded by the Fund.
The tax character of distributions paid during the years ended January 31, 2014 and January 31, 2013 was as follows:

Trustees’ Compensation. The Fund has adopted an unfunded retirement plan (the “Plan”) for the Fund’s independent trustees. Benefits are based on years of service and fees paid to each trustee during their period of service. The Plan was frozen with respect to adding new participants effective December 31, 2006 (the “Freeze Date”) and existing Plan Participants as of the Freeze Date will continue to receive accrued benefits under the Plan. Active independent trustees as of the Freeze Date have each elected a distribution method with respect to their benefits under the Plan. During the year ended January 31, 2014, the Fund’s projected benefit obligations, payments to retired trustees and accumulated liability were as follows:
Projected Benefit Obligations Increased | $ | 2,184 | ||
Payments Made to Retired Trustees | 2,656 | |||
Accumulated Liability as of January 31, 2014 | 20,880 |
The Board of Trustees has adopted a compensation deferral plan for independent trustees that enables trustees to elect to defer receipt of all or a portion of the annual compensation they are entitled to receive from the Fund. For purposes of determining the amount owed to the Trustee under the plan, deferred amounts are treated as though equal dollar amounts had been invested in shares of the Fund or in other Oppenheimer funds selected by the Trustee. The Fund purchases shares of the funds selected for deferral by the Trustee in amounts equal to his or her deemed investment, resulting in a Fund asset equal to the deferred compensation liability. Such assets are included as a component of “Other” within the asset section of the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Deferral of trustees’ fees under the plan will not affect the net assets of the Fund, and will not materially affect the Fund’s assets, liabilities or net investment income per share. Amounts will be deferred until distributed in accordance with the compensation deferral plan.

1. Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends and distributions to shareholders, which are determined in accordance with income tax regulations and may differ from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gain distributions, if any, are declared and paid annually or at other times as deemed necessary by the Manager.
Investment Income. Dividend distributions received from the Underlying Funds are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Upon receipt of notification from an Underlying Fund, and subsequent to the ex-dividend date, some of the dividend income originally recorded by the Fund may be reclassified as a tax return of capital by reducing the cost basis of the Underlying Fund and/or increasing the realized gain on sales of investments in the Underlying Fund.
Custodian Fees. “Custodian fees and expenses” in the Statement of Operations may include interest expense incurred by the Fund on any cash overdrafts of its custodian account during the period. Such cash overdrafts may result from the effects of failed trades in portfolio securities and from cash outflows resulting from unanticipated shareholder redemption activity. The Fund pays interest to its custodian on such cash overdraft at a rate equal to the 1 Month LIBOR Rate plus 2.00%. The “Reduction to custodian expenses” line item, if applicable, represents earnings on cash balances maintained by the Fund during the period. Such interest expense and other custodian fees may be paid with these earnings.
Security Transactions. Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Realized gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost.
Indemnifications. The Fund’s organizational documents provide current and former trustees and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the Fund. In the normal course of business, the Fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against the Fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.
Other. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
2. Securities Valuation
The Fund calculates the net asset value of its shares based upon the net asset value of the applicable Underlying Fund. For each Underlying Fund, the net asset value per share for a class of shares is determined as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (the
25 OPPENHEIMER PORTFOLIO SERIES EQUITY INVESTOR FUND
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Continued |
2. Securities Valuation (Continued) |
“Exchange”), normally 4:00 P.M. Eastern time, on each day the Exchange is open for trading by dividing the value of the Underlying Fund’s net assets attributable to that class by the number of outstanding shares of that class on that day.
The Fund’s Board has adopted procedures for the valuation of the Fund’s securities and has delegated the day-to-day responsibility for valuation determinations under those procedures to the Manager. The Manager has established a Valuation Committee which is responsible for determining a “fair valuation” for any security for which market quotations are not “readily available.” The Valuation Committee’s fair valuation determinations are subject to review, approval and ratification by the Fund’s Board at its next regularly scheduled meeting covering the calendar quarter in which the fair valuation was determined.
Valuations Methods and Inputs
To determine their net asset values, the Underlying Funds’ assets are valued primarily on the basis of current market quotations as generally supplied by third party portfolio pricing services or by dealers. Such market quotations are typically based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical securities or other observable market inputs.
If a market value or price cannot be determined for a security using the methodologies described above, or if, in the “good faith” opinion of the Manager, the market value or price obtained does not constitute a “readily available market quotation,” or a significant event has occurred that would materially affect the value of the security the security is fair valued either (i) by a standardized fair valuation methodology applicable to the security type or the significant event as previously approved by the Valuation Committee and the Fund’s Board or (ii) as determined in good faith by the Manager’s Valuation Committee. The Valuation Committee considers all relevant facts that are reasonably available, through either public information or information available to the Manager, when determining the fair value of a security. Fair value determinations by the Manager are subject to review, approval and ratification by the Fund’s Board at its next regularly scheduled meeting covering the calendar quarter in which the fair valuation was determined. The methodologies used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those Underlying Funds.
To assess the continuing appropriateness of security valuations, the Manager, or its third party service provider who is subject to oversight by the Manager, regularly compares prior day prices, prices on comparable securities, and sale prices to the current day prices and challenges those prices exceeding certain tolerance levels with the third party pricing service or broker source. For those securities valued by fair valuations, whether through a standardized fair valuation methodology or a fair valuation determination, the Valuation Committee reviews and affirms the reasonableness of the valuations based on such methodologies and fair valuation determinations on a regular basis after considering all relevant information that is reasonably available.

2. Securities Valuation (Continued)
Classifications
Each investment asset or liability of the Fund is assigned a level at measurement date based on the significance and source of the inputs to its valuation. Various data inputs are used in determining the value of each of the Fund’s investments as of the reporting period end. These data inputs are categorized in the following hierarchy under applicable financial accounting standards:
1) Level 1-unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (including securities actively traded on a securities exchange)
2) Level 2-inputs other than unadjusted quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (such as unadjusted quoted prices for similar assets and market corroborated inputs such as interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risks, etc.)
3) Level 3-significant unobservable inputs (including the Manager’s own judgments about assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability).
The inputs used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities.
The Fund classifies each of its investments in those Underlying Funds which are publicly offered and reported on an exchange as Level 1, and those Underlying Funds which are not publicly offered as Level 2, without consideration as to the classification level of the specific investments held by the Underlying Funds.
The table below categorizes amounts that are included in the Fund’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities as of January 31, 2014 based on valuation input level:

5. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates
Management Fees. Under the investment advisory agreement, the Manager does not charge a management fee, but rather collects indirect management fees from the Fund’s investments in the Underlying Funds. The weighted indirect management fees collected from the Fund’s investment in the Underlying Funds, as a percent of average daily net assets of the Fund for the year ended January 31, 2014 was 0.62%. This amount is gross of any waivers or reimbursements of management fees implemented at the Underlying Fund level.

5. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates (Continued) |
Sub-Adviser Fees. The Manager has retained the Sub-Adviser to provide the day-to-day portfolio management of the Fund. Under the Sub-Advisory Agreement, the Manager pays the Sub-Adviser an annual fee in monthly installments, equal to a percentage of the investment management fee collected by the Manager from the Fund, which shall be calculated after any investment management fee waivers. The fee paid to the Sub-Adviser is paid by the Manager, not by the Fund.
Transfer Agent Fees. OFI Global (the “Transfer Agent”) serves as the transfer and shareholder servicing agent for the Fund. Fees incurred by the Fund with respect to these services are detailed in the Statement of Operations.
Sub-Transfer Agent Fees. The Transfer Agent has retained Shareholder Services, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of OFI (the “Sub-Transfer Agent”), to provide the day-to-day transfer agent and shareholder servicing of the Fund. Under the Sub-Transfer Agency Agreement, the Transfer Agent pays the Sub-Transfer Agent an annual fee in monthly installments, equal to a percentage of the transfer agent fee collected by the Transfer Agent from the Fund, which shall be calculated after any applicable fee waivers. The fee paid to the Sub-Transfer Agent is paid by the Transfer Agent, not by the Fund.
Distribution and Service Plan (12b-1) Fees. Under its General Distributor’s Agreement with the Fund, OppenheimerFunds Distributor, Inc. (the “Distributor”) acts as the Fund’s principal underwriter in the continuous public offering of the Fund’s classes of shares.
Service Plan for Class A Shares. The Fund has adopted a Service Plan (the “Plan”) for Class A shares under Rule 12b-1 of the Investment Company Act of 1940. Under the Plan, the Fund reimburses the Distributor for a portion of its costs incurred for services provided to accounts that hold Class A shares. Reimbursement is made periodically at an annual rate of up to 0.25% of the daily net assets of Class A shares of the Fund. The Distributor currently uses all of those fees to pay dealers, brokers, banks and other financial institutions periodically for providing personal service and maintenance of accounts of their customers that hold Class A shares. Any unreimbursed expenses the Distributor incurs with respect to Class A shares in any fiscal year cannot be recovered in subsequent periods. Fees incurred by the Fund under the Plan are detailed in the Statement of Operations.
Distribution and Service Plans for Class B, Class C and Class N Shares. The Fund has adopted Distribution and Service Plans (the “Plans”) for Class B, Class C and Class N shares under Rule 12b-1 of the Investment Company Act of 1940 to compensate the Distributor for its services in connection with the distribution of those shares and servicing accounts. Under the Plans, the Fund pays the Distributor an annual asset-based sales charge of 1.00% on Class B and Class C shares daily net assets and 0.50% on Class N shares daily net assets. The Distributor also receives a service fee of 0.25% per year under each plan. If either the Class B, Class C or Class N plan is terminated by the Fund or by the shareholders of a class, the Board of Trustees and its independent trustees must determine whether the

Distributor shall be entitled to payment from the Fund of all or a portion of the service fee and/or asset-based sales charge in respect to shares sold prior to the effective date of such termination. Fees incurred by the Fund under the Plans are detailed in the Statement of Operations. The Distributor determines its uncompensated expenses under the Plans at calendar quarter ends. The Distributor’s aggregate uncompensated expenses under the Plans at December 31, 2013 were as follows:

Waivers and Reimbursements of Expenses. The Manager has voluntarily agreed to waive fees and/or reimburse the Fund for certain expenses in order to limit “Expenses after payments, waivers and/or reimbursements and reduction to custodian expenses”, (the combined direct (Fund level) and indirect (Underlying Fund level) expenses), will not exceed the annual rate of 1.45%, 2.20%, 2.20%, 1.70% and 1.20%, for Class A, Class B, Class C, Class N and Class Y, respectively. The expense limitations do not include extraordinary expenses and other expenses not incurred in the ordinary course of the Fund’s business. Notwithstanding the foregoing limits, the Manager is not required to waive or reimburse Fund expenses in excess of the amount of indirect management fees earned from investments in the Underlying Funds.
The Transfer Agent has contractually agreed to limit transfer and shareholder servicing agent fees for all classes to 0.35% of average annual net assets per class.
During the year ended January 31, 2014, the Transfer Agent waived $78,882 of fees.
Some of these undertakings may be modified or terminated at any time; some may not be modified or terminated until after one year from the date of the current prospectus, as indicated therein.

6. Pending Litigation
Since 2009, seven class action lawsuits have been pending in the U.S. District Court for the District of Colorado against OppenheimerFunds, Inc. (“OFI”), OppenheimerFunds Distributor, Inc., the Fund’s principal underwriter and distributor (the “Distributor”), and certain funds (but not including the Fund) advised by OFI Global Asset Management, Inc. and distributed by the Distributor (the “Defendant Funds”). The lawsuits also name as defendants certain officers and current and former trustees of the respective Defendant Funds. The lawsuits raise claims under federal securities law and allege, among other things, that the disclosure documents of the respective Defendant Funds contained misrepresentations and omissions and that the respective Defendant Funds’ investment policies were not followed. The plaintiffs in these actions seek unspecified damages, equitable relief and awards of attorneys’ fees and litigation expenses. The Defendant Funds’ Boards of Trustees have also engaged counsel to represent the Funds and the present and former Independent Trustees named in those suits. On March 5, 2014, the parties in six of these lawsuits executed stipulations and agreements of settlement resolving those actions. The settlements are subject to a variety of contingencies, including approval by the court. The settlements do not resolve a seventh outstanding lawsuit relating to Oppenheimer California Municipal Fund.
Other class action and individual lawsuits have been filed since 2008 in various state and federal courts against OFI and certain of its affiliates by investors seeking to recover investments they allegedly lost as a result of the “Ponzi” scheme run by Bernard L. Madoff and his firm, Bernard L. Madoff Investment Securities, LLC (“BLMIS”). Plaintiffs in these suits allege that they suffered losses as a result of their investments in several funds managed by an affiliate of OFI and assert a variety of claims, including breach of fiduciary duty, fraud, negligent misrepresentation, unjust enrichment, and violation of federal and state securities laws and regulations, among others. They seek unspecified damages, equitable relief and awards of attorneys’ fees and litigation expenses. Neither the Distributor, nor any of the Oppenheimer mutual funds, their independent trustees or directors are named as defendants in these lawsuits. None of the Oppenheimer mutual funds invested in any funds or accounts managed by Madoff or BLMIS. On February 28, 2011, a stipulation of partial settlement of three groups of consolidated putative class action lawsuits relating to these matters was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. On August 19, 2011, the court entered an order and final judgment approving the settlement as fair, reasonable and adequate. In September 2011, certain parties filed notices of appeal from the court’s order approving the settlement. The settlement does not resolve other outstanding lawsuits against OFI and its affiliates relating to BLMIS.
On April 16, 2010, a lawsuit was filed in New York state court against (i) OFI, (ii) an affiliate of OFI and (iii) AAArdvark IV Funding Limited (“AAArdvark IV”), an entity advised by OFI’s affiliate, in connection with investments made by the plaintiffs in AAArdvark IV. Plaintiffs alleged breach of contract and common law fraud claims against the defendants and sought compensatory damages, costs and disbursements, including attorney fees. On April 11, 2013, the court granted defendants’ motion for summary judgment, dismissing plaintiffs’

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Continued | ||
6. Pending Litigation (Continued)
fraud claim with prejudice and dismissing their contract claim without prejudice, and granted plaintiffs leave to replead their contract claim to assert a cause of action for specific performance within 30 days. On May 9, 2013, plaintiffs filed a notice of appeal from the court’s dismissal order. On January 7, 2014, the appellate court affirmed the trial court’s dismissal order. On July 15, 2011, a lawsuit was filed in New York state court against OFI, an affiliate of OFI and AAArdvark Funding Limited (“AAArdvark I”), an entity advised by OFI’s affiliate, in connection with investments made by the plaintiffs in AAArdvark I. The complaint alleges breach of contract and common law fraud claims against the defendants and seeks compensatory damages, costs and disbursements, including attorney fees. On November 9, 2011, a lawsuit was filed in New York state court against OFI, an affiliate of OFI and AAArdvark XS Funding Limited (“AAArdvark XS”), an entity advised by OFI’s affiliate, in connection with investments made by the plaintiffs in AAArdvark XS. The complaint alleged breach of contract against the defendants and sought compensatory damages, costs and disbursements, including attorney fees. On November 8, 2013, the parties filed a stipulation of discontinuance dismissing the lawsuit with prejudice.
OFI believes the lawsuits and appeals described above are without legal merit and, with the exception of actions it has settled, is defending against them vigorously. While it is premature to render any opinion as to the outcome in these lawsuits, or whether any costs that the Defendant Funds may bear in defending the suits might not be reimbursed by insurance, OFI believes that these suits should not impair the ability of OFI or the Distributor to perform their respective duties to the Fund, and that the outcome of all of the suits together should not have any material effect on the operations of any of the Oppenheimer mutual funds.

PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM |
The Board of Trustees and Shareholders of Oppenheimer Portfolio Series:
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Equity Investor Fund (a series of Oppenheimer Portfolio Series), including the statement of investments, as of January 31, 2014, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the years in the two-year period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the years in the five-year period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of January 31, 2014, by correspondence with the custodian, transfer agent and brokers, or by other appropriate auditing procedures where replies from brokers were not received. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Equity Investor Fund as of January 31, 2014, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the years in the two-year period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the years in the five-year period then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

In early 2014, if applicable, shareholders of record received information regarding all dividends and distributions paid to them by the Fund during calendar year 2013.
Dividends, if any, paid by the Fund during the fiscal year ended January 31, 2014 which are not designated as capital gain distributions should be multiplied by the maximum amount allowable but not less than 74.41% to arrive at the amount eligible for the corporate dividend-received deduction.
A portion, if any, of the dividends paid by the Fund during the fiscal year ended January 31, 2014 which are not designated as capital gain distributions are eligible for lower individual income tax rates to the extent that the Fund has received qualified dividend income as stipulated by recent tax legislation. The maximum amount allowable but not less than $9,289,918 of the Fund’s fiscal year taxable income may be eligible for the lower individual income tax rates. In early 2014, shareholders of record received information regarding the percentage of distributions that are eligible for lower individual income tax rates.
Recent tax legislation allows a regulated investment company to designate distributions not designated as capital gain distributions, as either interest related dividends or short-term capital gain dividends, both of which are exempt from the U.S. withholding tax applicable to non U.S. taxpayers. For the fiscal year ended January 31, 2014, the maximum amount allowable but not less than $10,405 of the ordinary distributions to be paid by the Fund qualifies as an interest related dividend.
The Fund has elected the application of Section 853 of the Internal Revenue Code to permit shareholders to take a federal income tax credit or deduction, at their option, on a per share basis. The maximum amount allowable but not less than $494,542 of foreign income taxes were paid by the Fund during the fiscal year ended January 31, 2014. A separate notice will be mailed to each shareholder, which will reflect the proportionate share of such foreign taxes which must be treated by shareholders as gross income for federal income tax purposes.
Gross income of the maximum amount allowable but not less than $4,821,004 was derived from sources within foreign countries or possessions of the United States.
The foregoing information is presented to assist shareholders in reporting distributions received from the Fund to the Internal Revenue Service. Because of the complexity of the federal regulations which may affect your individual tax return and the many variations in state and local tax regulations, we recommend that you consult your tax advisor for specific guidance.

BOARD APPROVAL OF THE FUND’S INVESTMENT
ADVISORY AND SUB-ADVISORY AGREEMENTS Unaudited |
The Fund has entered into an investment advisory agreement with OFI Global Asset Management, Inc. (“OFI Global” or the “Adviser”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of OppenheimerFunds, Inc. (“OFI” or the “Sub-Adviser”) (“OFI Global” and “OFI” together the “Managers”) and OFI Global has entered into a sub-advisory agreement with OFI whereby OFI provides investment sub-advisory services to the Fund (collectively, the “Agreements”). Each year, the Board of Trustees (the “Board”), including a majority of the independent Trustees, is required to determine whether to renew the Agreements. The Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, requires that the Board request and evaluate, and that the Managers provide, such information as may be reasonably necessary to evaluate the terms of the Agreements. The Board employs an independent consultant to prepare a report that provides information, including comparative information that the Board requests for that purpose. In addition to in-person meetings focused on this evaluation, the Board receives information throughout the year regarding Fund services, fees, expenses and performance.
The Adviser, Sub-Adviser and the independent consultant provided information to the Board on the following factors: (i) the nature, quality and extent of the Managers’ services, (ii) the investment performance of the Fund and the Managers, (iii) the fees and expenses of the Fund, including comparative expense information, (iv) the profitability of the Managers and their affiliates, including an analysis of the cost of providing services, (v) whether economies of scale are realized as the Fund grows and whether fee levels reflect these economies of scale for Fund investors and (vi) other benefits to the Managers from their relationship with the Fund. The Board was aware that there are alternatives to retaining the Managers.
Outlined below is a summary of the principal information considered by the Board as well as the Board’s conclusions.
Nature, Quality and Extent of Services. The Board considered information about the nature, quality and extent of the services provided to the Fund and information regarding the Managers’ key personnel who provide such services. The Sub-Adviser’s duties include providing the Fund with the services of the portfolio manager and the Sub-Adviser’s investment team, who provide research, analysis and other advisory services in regard to the Fund’s investments; securities trading services; oversight of third-party service providers; monitoring compliance with applicable Fund policies and procedures and adherence to the Fund’s investment restrictions; and risk management. The Managers are responsible for providing certain administrative services to the Fund as well. Those services include providing and supervising all administrative and clerical personnel who are necessary in order to provide effective corporate administration for the Fund; compiling and maintaining records with respect to the Fund’s operations; preparing and filing reports required by the Securities and Exchange Commission; preparing periodic reports regarding the operations of the Fund for its shareholders; preparing proxy materials for shareholder meetings; and preparing the registration statements required by Federal and state securities laws for the sale of the Fund’s shares. The Managers also provide the Fund with office space, facilities and equipment.
The Board also considered the quality of the services provided and the quality of the Managers’ resources that are available to the Fund. The Board took account of the fact that the Sub-Adviser has had over fifty years of experience as an investment adviser and that its assets under management rank it among the top mutual fund managers in the United States. The Board evaluated the Sub-Adviser’s advisory, administrative, accounting, legal, compliance

|
services and risk management, and information the Board has received regarding the experience and professional qualifications of the Managers’ key personnel and the size and functions of its staff. In its evaluation of the quality of the portfolio management services provided, the Board considered the experience of Mark Hamilton, the portfolio manager for the Fund, and the experience of the portfolio managers and the investment performance of the investment companies in which the Fund invests (the “Underlying Funds”). The Board members also considered the totality of their experiences with the Managers as directors or trustees of the Fund and other funds advised by the Managers. The Board considered information regarding the quality of services provided by affiliates of the Managers, which its members have become knowledgeable about in connection with the renewal of the Fund’s service agreements. The Board concluded, in light of the Managers’ experience, reputation, personnel, operations and resources that the Fund benefits from the services provided under the Agreement.
Investment Performance of the Fund, the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser. Throughout the year, the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser provided information on the investment performance of the Fund, the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser, including comparative performance information. The Board also reviewed information, prepared by the Adviser, the Sub-Adviser and the independent consultant, comparing the Fund’s historical performance to its benchmarks and to the performance of other retail world stock funds. The Board noted that the Fund’s one-year, three-year and five-year performance was better than its category median.
Costs of Services by the Adviser. The Board reviewed the fees paid to the Adviser and the other expenses borne by the Fund. The Board also considered the comparability of the fees charged and the services provided to the Fund to the fees and services for other clients or accounts advised by the Adviser. The independent consultant provided comparative data in regard to the fees and expenses of the Fund and other retail front-end load world stock funds with comparable asset levels and distribution features. The Adviser has voluntarily agreed to waive fees and/or reimburse the Fund for certain expenses in order to limit annual fund operating expenses after any fee waiver and/or expense reimbursement (including the combined direct (Fund level) and indirect (Underlying Fund level) expenses, but excluding (i) interest, taxes, dividends tied to short sales, brokerage commissions, and other expenditures which are capitalized in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles; (ii) certain other expenses attributable to, and incurred as a result of, a Fund’s investments; and (iii) other extraordinary expenses (including litigation expenses) not incurred in the ordinary course of the Fund’s business) to annual rates of 1.45% for Class A shares, 2.20% for Class B shares, 2.20% for Class C shares, 1.70% for Class N shares, and 1.20% for Class Y shares, as calculated on the daily net assets of the Fund. This fee waiver and/or expense reimbursement may be amended or withdrawn at any time without prior notice to shareholders. The Board noted that the Fund was charged no actual management fees, exclusive of Underlying Fund management fees, while certain peer group funds did charge direct management fees. The Fund’s total expenses were lower than its peer group median and its category median.
Economies of Scale and Profits Realized by the Adviser and Sub-Adviser. The Board considered information regarding OFI Global’s costs in serving as the Fund’s investment

|
adviser, including the costs associated with the personnel and systems necessary to manage the Fund, and information regarding the Managers’ profitability from their relationship with the Fund. The Board reviewed whether the Managers may realize economies of scale in managing and supporting the Fund and whether those economies of scale benefit the Fund’s shareholders at the current level of Fund assets in relation to its management fee.
Other Benefits to the Managers. In addition to considering the profits realized by the Managers, the Board considered information that was provided regarding the direct and indirect benefits the Managers receive as a result of their relationship with the Fund, including compensation paid to the Managers’ affiliates. The Board also considered that the Managers must be able to pay and retain experienced professional personnel at competitive rates to provide quality services to the Fund.
Conclusions. These factors were also considered by the independent Trustees meeting separately from the full Board, assisted by experienced counsel to the Fund and to the independent Trustees. Fund counsel and the independent Trustees’ counsel are independent of the Managers within the meaning and intent of the Securities and Exchange Commission Rules.
Based on its review of the information it received and its evaluations described above, the Board, including a majority of the independent Trustees, decided to continue the Agreements through September 30, 2014. In arriving at its decision, the Board did not identify any factor or factors as being more important than others, but considered all of the above information, and considered the terms and conditions of the Agreements, including the management fees, in light of all the surrounding circumstances.

Householding—Delivery of Shareholder Documents
This is to inform you about OppenheimerFunds’ “householding” policy. If more than one member of your household maintains an account in a particular fund, OppenheimerFunds will mail only one copy of the fund’s prospectus (or, if available, the fund’s summary prospectus), annual and semiannual report and privacy policy. The consolidation of these mailings, called householding, benefits your fund through reduced mailing expense, and benefits you by reducing the volume of mail you receive from OppenheimerFunds. Householding does not affect the delivery of your account statements.
Please note that we will continue to household these mailings for as long as you remain an OppenheimerFunds shareholder, unless you request otherwise. If you prefer to receive multiple copies of these materials, please call us at 1.800.CALL-OPP (225-5677). You may also notify us in writing or via email. We will begin sending you individual copies of the prospectus (or, if available, the summary prospectus), reports and privacy policy within 30 days of receiving your request to stop householding.

Internet Security and Encryption
In general, the email services provided by our website are encrypted and provide a secure and private means of communication with us. To protect your own privacy, confidential and/or personal information should only be communicated via email when you are advised that you are using a secure website.
As a security measure, we do not include personal or account information in non-secure emails, and we advise you not to send such information to us in non-secure emails. Instead, you may take advantage of the secure features of our website to encrypt your email correspondence. To do this, you will need to use a browser that supports Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol.

— Encryption is achieved through an electronic scrambling technology that uses a “key” to code and then decode the data. Encryption acts like the cable converter box you may have on your television set. It scrambles data with a secret code so that no one can make sense of it while it is being transmitted. When the data reaches its destination, the same software unscrambles the data.
— You can exit the secure area by either closing your browser, or for added security, you can use the Log Out button before you close your browser.
