The total annual Fund operating expense ratio set forth in the most recent Fund prospectus as of the date of this report for Class A, Class B, Class C, Class R, Class S, Class Y and Class R5 shares was 1.17%, 1.92%, 1.92%, 1.42%, 1.07%, 0.92% and 0.85%, respectively.1 The expense ratios presented above may vary from the expense ratios presented in other sections of this report that are based on expenses incurred during the period covered by this report.

Letters to Shareholders
![]() | Dear Shareholders: This annual report contains information about your Fund and the factors that affected its performance during the reporting period. Inside, you’ll find a discussion from your portfolio managers about how they managed your Fund, performance data for your Fund, a complete list of your Fund’s investments as of the close of the reporting period and other important information. I hope you find this report of interest. The reporting period covered by this report was challenging. As the year began, investors cheered generally positive economic indicators, and markets generally rose. Soon, however, US economic data turned mixed and investors’ attention shifted to the efforts of eurozone governments to implement new policies intended to reduce debt levels, strengthen the banking system and stimulate economic growth. Later in the year, in the US, mixed economic data, competing proposals on how to reduce the federal budget deficit and a contentious presidential | |
contest increased investor uncertainty and hindered market performance. Throughout the year, your Fund’s portfolio managers adhered to their long-term investment strategies, and later in this report they explain why your Fund performed as it did during the reporting period. |
Adhering to your long-term investment plan can be difficult, particularly during periods of market volatility and economic uncertainty. That’s one reason Invesco suggests investors work with a skilled and trusted financial adviser who is familiar with their financial situation, investment goals and risk tolerance. A good financial adviser can provide insight and perspective when markets are volatile; motivation and reassurance when times are uncertain; and advice and recommendations when your financial situation or investment goals change.
Timely insight and information from many of Invesco’s investment professionals is available at our website, invesco.com/us. We offer in-depth articles, video clips and audio commentaries from many of our portfolio managers and other investment professionals on a wide range of topics of interest to investors.

Dear Fellow Shareholders: While short-term challenges for the financial markets regularly come and go, it’s clear that significant and longer term economic obstacles remain both here at home and abroad. There appear to be no easy solutions to many of these issues. As a result, the financial markets have had little conviction to respond to what has been slow, yet noticeable improvement in some economic benchmarks in recent months. No one likes uncertainty, especially financial markets. But even in these uncertain times, it appears that investors are still approaching the market with cautious optimism, with some taking on more risk in order to refocus on their long-term savings goals. Maybe this describes you, or perhaps you have been sitting on the sidelines thinking about getting back into the market, but are still a bit hesitant to act because of market uncertainty. Clearly, risk remains a primary focus for investors of all types. As Trustees of the Invesco Funds, | ||
one of our primary responsibilities is to ensure your fund’s adviser is cognizant of the risks in each of the funds it manages. A thoughtful risk management plan may help investors navigate through market turbulence or an economic downturn. This is why we make risk management a critical element of our annual contract renewal process, like the one we complete with Invesco every year. |
To be sure, there will always be risks involved with investing, but you shouldn’t let short-term news or your emotions dictate your investments. Because no one can predict with 100% accuracy the movements of financial markets, I strongly encourage you to speak with a professional financial adviser who can assist you in building an investment portfolio that reflects your individual risk tolerance and is designed to help achieve your individual financial objectives.
You can be sure your Board remains committed to doing its part in helping you along the way. In addition to ensuring that your fund’s adviser is focused on the risks in the funds it manages, we also remain committed to managing fund costs and working with your fund’s adviser to provide a compelling and diversified product offering to potentially meet your investing goals.
In that regard, your Board approved a number of fund mergers and the launch of several new funds, including the first Invesco mutual fund available to US retail investors managed by investment professionals at Invesco Perpetual*, one of the largest independent investment managers in the UK.
Let me close by thanking Carl Frischling upon his retirement from the Invesco Funds Board for his 35 years of distinguished service and unwavering commitment to our funds’ shareholders. As always, please contact me at bruce@brucecrockett.com with any questions or concerns you may have.
On behalf of the Board, we look forward to continuing to represent your interests and serving your investment needs.
Sincerely,
Bruce L. Crockett

How we invest
Invesco Conservative Allocation Fund is intended for investors with a low to moderate risk tolerance. The Fund invests in underlying funds diversified among asset classes (stocks, bonds and alternative asset classes), investment styles (value, blend/core and growth), regions (domestic and international) and market capitalizations (mid and large). The underlying funds include bond funds, which represent approximately 54.50% of the portfolio; stock funds, which represent approximately 30.08% of the portfolio; and alternative funds such as global real estate, balanced-risk allocation and commodity funds that represent approximately
15.42% of the portfolio.
The balanced-risk allocation underlying funds can shift exposures between equities, fixed income and commodities. The commodity underlying fund invests in instruments that provide exposure to the commodities market. They gain exposure to their underlying assets through the use of derivatives, including futures, swap agreements and commodity-linked notes.
While no fund can guarantee positive performance, the broad portfolio diversification strives to provide exposure to areas of the market that may perform well in any given period. It also attempts to limit exposure to any one area of the
market that may be underperforming.
We establish target asset class weightings and underlying fund selections for the Fund and monitor the Fund on an ongoing basis. The underlying funds are actively managed by their respective management teams based on individual fund objectives, investment strategies and management techniques.
While the weightings of various underlying funds in the portfolio may vary from their targets during the year due to market movements, we rebalance the portfolio quarterly to maintain its target asset class allocations. There are also additional triggers in place to rebalance intra-quarter if allocations stray from a specified range.
Market conditions and your Fund
The year began with the advance of equities and commodities driven by indications of improving economic data and continued stimulus from global monetary authorities. Most sovereign bond markets fell during the first quarter of 2012 on signs of improving economic conditions, reduced economic strains in Europe and declining expectations for further Treasury bond purchase programs.
During April and May, risky asset gains from earlier in the year were eroded as a result of renewed fears arising from the ongoing European crisis coupled with weakening economic data in key markets. Government bonds once again fulfilled their role as safe haven assets as yields contracted in response to the weakness in risky assets.
In the third quarter, equity, fixed income and commodity markets all posted impressive results. Riskier assets, especially commodities, were able to

stage a bounce back on expectations for additional monetary easing and hope that Europe would be able to finally make headway on its lingering economic issues. Bond yields spiked twice during the third quarter, but managed to settle down as markets see-sawed between concerns over inflation and the continuing weakness in Europe.
The year ended with a lift in equities offset by declines in bonds and commodities. Investors had a host of political issues to navigate, including elections in the US, China and Japan; “fiscal cliff” negotiations in the US; and continuing concerns over European and Chinese economic growth. Equities were the lone bright spot while commodity markets were weighed down by concerns over falling demand and an improvement in crop yields. Government bond yields ultimately made their way higher as the market experienced both rallies and sell-offs.
Invesco Core Plus Bond Fund, Invesco Balanced-Risk Allocation Fund and Invesco High Yield Fund were the top contributors to absolute Fund performance for the reporting period. There were no absolute detractors from overall Fund performance. Relative to the Fund’s custom style-specific index, Invesco International Core Equity Fund, PowerShares 1-30 Laddered Treasury Portfolio and Invesco American Franchise Fund were the largest detractors from performance.
Please note that some of the underlying funds – which include, but are not limited to, Invesco Balanced-Risk Allocation Fund, Invesco Balanced-Risk Commodity Strategy Fund and Invesco Core Plus Bond Fund – may be primarily implemented with derivatives, which may create economic leverage in the underlying funds. Please note that our strategy is principally implemented with derivative instruments that include futures and total return swaps. Therefore, all or most of the performance of the strategy, both positive and negative, can be attributed to these instruments. Derivatives can be a more liquid and cost-effective way to gain exposure to asset classes. Additionally, the leverage used in the strategy is inherent in these instruments.
Finally, we thank you for your continued commitment to Invesco Conservative Allocation Fund.

How we invest
Invesco Growth Allocation Fund is intended for investors with a relatively high risk tolerance. The Fund invests in underlying funds diversified among asset classes (stocks, bonds and alternative asset classes), investment styles (value, blend/ core and growth), regions (domestic and international) and market capitalizations (small, mid and large). These underlying funds include stock funds, which represent approximately 66.74% of the portfolio; alternative funds such as global real estate, balanced-risk allocation and commodity funds that which represent approximately 26.26% of the portfolio; and one bond fund, which represents
approximately 7% of the portfolio.
The balanced-risk allocation and underlying funds can shift exposures between equities, fixed income and commodities. The commodity underlying fund invests in instruments that provide exposure to the commodities market. They gain exposure to their underlying assets through the use of derivatives, including futures, swap agreements and commodity-linked notes.
While no fund can guarantee positive performance, the broad portfolio diversification strives to provide exposure to areas of the market that may perform well in any given period. It also attempts to limit exposure to any one area of the
market that may be underperforming.
We establish target asset class weightings and underlying fund selections for the Fund and monitor the Fund on an ongoing basis. The underlying funds are actively managed by their respective management teams based on individual fund objectives, investment strategies and management techniques.
While the weightings of various underlying funds in the portfolio may vary from their targets during the year due to market movements, we rebalance the portfolio quarterly to maintain its target asset class allocations. There are also additional triggers in place to rebalance intra-quarter if allocations stray from a specified range.
Market conditions and your Fund
The year began with the advance of equities and commodities driven by indications of improving economic data and continued stimulus from global monetary authorities. Most sovereign bond markets fell during the first quarter of 2012 on signs of improving economic conditions, reduced economic strains in Europe and declining expectations for further Treasury bond purchase programs.
During April and May, risky asset gains from earlier in the year were eroded as a result of renewed fears arising from the ongoing European crisis coupled with weakening economic data in key markets. Government bonds once again fulfilled their role as safe haven assets as yields contracted in response to the weakness in risky assets.
In the third quarter, equity, fixed income and commodity markets all posted impressive results. Riskier assets, especially commodities, were able to stage a bounce back on expectations for

additional monetary easing and hope that Europe would be able to finally make headway on its lingering economic issues. Bond yields spiked twice during the third quarter, but managed to settle down as markets see-sawed between concerns over inflation and the continuing weakness in Europe.
The year ended with a lift in equities offset by declines in bonds and commodities. Investors had a host of political issues to navigate, including elections in the US, China and Japan; “fiscal cliff” negotiations in the US; and continuing concerns over European and Chinese economic growth. Equities were the lone bright spot while commodity markets were weighed down by concerns over falling demand and an improvement in crop yields. Government bond yields ultimately made their way higher as the market experienced both rallies and sell-offs.
Invesco Balanced-Risk Allocation Fund, Invesco Diversified Dividend Fund and Invesco Developing Markets Fund were the top contributors to absolute Fund performance for the reporting period. There were no absolute detractors from overall Fund performance. Relative to the Fund’s custom style-specific index, Invesco International Core Equity Fund, Invesco American Franchise Fund and Invesco International Growth Fund were the largest detractors from performance.
Please note that some of the underlying funds – which include, but are not limited to, Invesco Balanced-Risk Allocation Fund and Invesco Balanced-Risk Commodity Strategy Fund – may be primarily implemented with derivatives, which may create economic leverage in the underlying funds. Please note that our strategy is principally implemented with derivative instruments that include futures and total return swaps. Therefore, all or most of the performance of the strategy, both positive and negative, can be attributed to these instruments. Derivatives can be a more liquid and cost-effective way to
gain exposure to asset classes. Additionally, the leverage used in the strategy is inherent in these instruments.

Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance
Performance summary – Invesco Moderate Allocation Fund For the year ended December 31, 2012, Invesco Moderate Allocation Fund, at net asset value (NAV), outperformed its custom style-specific benchmark. Positive absolute performance from global developed market equities drove results throughout the year. Commodities declined overall and experienced meaningful volatility. Government bonds produced positive absolute returns serving as safe haven during periods of heightened volatility, particularly in April and May of 2012. Your Fund’s long-term performance appears later in this report.

How we invest
Invesco Moderate Allocation Fund is intended for investors with moderate risk tolerance. The Fund invests in underlying funds diversified among asset classes (stocks, bonds and alternative asset classes), investment styles (value, blend/ core and growth), regions (domestic and international) and market capitalizations (small, mid and large). These underlying funds include stock funds, which represent approximately 48.88% of the portfolio; bond funds, which represent approximately 30.50% of the portfolio; and alternative funds such as global real estate, balanced-risk allocation and commodity funds that represent approximately
20.62% of the portfolio.
The balanced-risk allocation underlying funds can shift exposures between equities, fixed income and commodities. The commodity underlying fund invests in instruments that provide exposure to the commodities market. They gain exposure to their underlying assets through the use of derivatives, including futures, swap agreements and commodity-linked notes.
While no fund can guarantee positive performance, the broad portfolio diversification strives to provide exposure to areas of the market that may perform well in any given period. It also attempts to limit exposure to any one area of the market that may be underperforming.

Principal risks defined ¾Call risk. If interest rates fall, it is possible that issuers of debt securities with high interest rates will prepay or call their securities before their maturity dates. In this event, the proceeds from the called securities would likely be reinvested by an underlying fund in securities bearing the new, lower interest rates, resulting in a possible decline in an underlying funds income and distributions to shareholders. ¾Commodity-linked notes risk. An underlying fund’s investments in commodity-linked notes may involve substantial risks, including risk of loss of a significant portion of their principal value. In addition to risks associated with the underlying commodities, they may be subject to additional special risks, such as the lack of a secondary trading market and temporary price distortions due to speculators and/or the continuous rolling over of futures contracts underlying the notes. Commodity-linked notes are also subject to counterparty risk, which is the risk that the other party to the contract will not fulfill its contractual obligation to complete the transaction with an underlying Fund. ¾Commodity risk. Certain of the underlying fund’s and Invesco Cayman Commodity Fund I Ltd. or Invesco Cayman Commodity Fund III Ltd., each a wholly-owned subsidiary of certain underlying funds organized under the laws of Cayman Islands (each a Subsidiary) investment exposure to the commodities markets and/or a particular sector of the commodities markets, may subject the underlying fund and | the Subsidiary to greater volatility than investments in traditional securities, such as stocks and bonds. The commodities markets may fluctuate widely based on a variety of factors, including changes in overall market movements, domestic and foreign political and economic events and policies, war, acts of terrorism, changes in domestic or foreign interest rates and/or investor expectations concerning interest rates, domestic and foreign inflation rates and investment and trading activities of mutual funds, hedge funds and commodities funds. Prices of various commodities may also be affected by factors such as drought, floods, weather, livestock disease, embargoes, tariffs and other regulatory developments. The prices of commodities can also fluctuate widely due to supply and demand disruptions in major producing or consuming regions. Because certain of the underlying fund’s and the Subsidiary’s performance are linked to the performance of potentially volatile commodities, investors should be willing to assume the risks of potentially significant fluctuations in the value of the underlying fund’s shares. ¾Concentration risk. To the extent, an underlying fund invests a greater amount in any one sector or industry, an underlying fund’s performance will depend to a greater extent on the overall condition of the sector or industry, and there is increased risk to an underlying fund if conditions adversely affect that sector or industry. ¾Convertible securities risk. An underlying fund may own convertible securities, the value of which may be affected | by market interest rates, the risk that the issuer will default, the value of the underlying stock or the right of the issuer to buy back the convertible securities. ¾Counterparty risk. Counterparty risk is the risk that the other party to the contract will not fulfill its contractual obligations, which may cause losses or additional costs to an underlying fund. ¾Credit risk. The issuer of instruments in which the underlying fund invests may be unable to meet interest and/or principal payments, thereby causing its instruments to decrease in value and lowering the issuer’s credit rating. ¾Currency/exchange rate risk. The dollar value of an underlying fund’s foreign investments will be affected by changes in the exchange rates between the dollar and the currencies in which those investments are traded. ¾Debt securities risk. An underlying fund may invest in debt securities that are affected by changing interest rates and changes in their effective maturities and credit quality. ¾Derivatives risk. The performance of derivative instruments is tied to the performance of an underlying currency, security, index or other instrument. In addition to risks relating to their underlying instruments, the use of derivatives may include other, possibly greater, risks. Derivatives involve costs, may be volatile, and may involve a small initial investment relative to the risk assumed. Risks associated with the use of derivatives include counterparty,leverage, correlation, liquidity, tax, market, interest rate and management risks. Derivatives may also be more difficult to purchase, sell or value than other investments. The Fund may lose more than the cash amount invested on investments in derivatives. Investors should bear in mind that, while the Fund intends to use derivative | ||

strategies, it is not obligated to actively engage in these transactions, generally or in any particular kind of derivative, if the investment manager elects not to do so due to availability, cost, market conditions or other factors. |
¾ | Developing/emerging markets securities risk. Securities issued by foreign companies and governments located in developing/emerging countries may be affected more negatively by inflation, devaluation of their currencies, higher transaction costs, delays in settlement, adverse political developments, the introduction of capital controls, withholding taxes, nationalization of private assets, expropriation, social unrest, war or lack of timely information than those in developed countries |
¾ | Dollar roll transactions risk. Dollar roll transactions involve the risk that the market value and yield of the securities retained by an underlying fund may decline below the price of the mortgage-related securities sold by the underlying fund that it is obligated to repurchase. |
¾ | Exchange-traded funds (ETFs) risk. An investment by the Fund or underlying fund in ETFs generally presents the same primary risks as an investment in a mutual fund. In addition, an ETF may be subject to the following: (1) a discount of the exchange-traded fund’s shares to its net asset value; (2) failure to develop an active trading market for the exchange-traded fund’s shares; (3) the listing exchange halting trading of the exchange-traded fund’s shares; (4) failure of the exchange-traded fund’s shares to track the referenced index; and (5) holding troubled securities in the referenced index. ETFs may involve duplication of management fees and certain other expenses, as the Fund or underlying fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of any expenses paid by the ETFs in which it invests. Further, certain of the ETFs in which the Fund or underlying fund may invest are leveraged. The more the Fund or underlying fund invests in such leveraged ETFs, the more this leverage will magnify any losses on those investments. |
¾ | Exchange-traded notes (ETNs) risk. ETNs are subject to credit risk, including the credit risk of the issuer, and the value of the ETN may drop due to a downgrade in the issuer’s credit rating, despite the underlying market benchmark or strategy remaining unchanged. The value of an ETN may also be influenced by time to maturity, level of supply and demand for the ETN, volatility and lack of liquidity in the |
underlying market, changes in the applicable interest rates, changes in the issuer’s credit rating, and economic, legal, political, or geographic events that affect the referenced underlying market or strategy. ETNs are also subject to counterparty risk. |
¾ | Financial institutions risk. Investments in financial institutions may be subject to certain risks, including, but not limited to, the risk of regulatory actions, changes in interest rates and concentration of loan portfolios in an industry or sector. Financial institutions are highly regulated and may suffer setbacks should regulatory rules and interpretations under which they operate change. Likewise, there is a high level of competition among financial institutions which could adversely affect the viability of an institution. |
¾ | Foreign securities risk. An underlying fund’s foreign investments may be affected by changes in a foreign country’s exchange rates, political and social instability; changes in economic or taxation policies, difficulties when enforcing obligations, decreased liquidity, and increased volatility. Foreign companies may be subject to less regulation resulting in less publicly available information about the companies. |
¾ | Fund of funds risk. The Fund’s performance depends on the underlying funds in which it invests, and it is subject to the risks of the underlying funds. Market fluctuations may change the target weightings in the underlying funds. The underlying funds may change their investment objectives, policies or practices and may not achieve their investment objectives, all of which may cause the Fund to withdraw its investments therein at a disadvantageous time. |
¾ | Geographic focus risk. From time to time an underlying fund may invest a substantial amount of its assets in securities of issuers located in a single country or a limited number of countries. If an underlying fund focuses its investments in this manner, it assumes the risk that economic, political and social conditions in those countries will have a significant impact on its investment performance. An underlying fund’s investment performance may also be more volatile if it focuses its investments in certain countries, especially emerging market countries. |
¾ | Growth investing risk. Growth stocks tend to be more expensive relative to their earnings or assets compared with other types of stock. As a result they tend to be more sensitive to changes in their earnings and can be more volatile. |
¾ | High yield bond (junk bond) risk. Junk bonds involve a greater risk of default or price changes due to changes in the credit quality of the issuer. The values of junk bonds fluctuate more than those of high-quality bonds in response to company, political, regulatory or economic developments. Values of junk bonds can decline significantly over short periods of time. |
¾ | Indexing risk. Unlike many investment companies, an underlying fund does not utilize an investing strategy that seeks returns in excess of the underlying index. Therefore, it would not necessarily sell a security unless that security is removed from the underlying index. |
¾ | Interest rate risk. Interest rate risk refers to the risk that bond prices generally fall as interest rates rise; conversely, bond prices generally rise as interest rates fall. Specific bonds differ in their sensitivity to changes in interest rates depending on their individual characteristics, including duration. |
¾ | Investing in the European Union risk. Many countries in the European Union are susceptible to high economic risks associated with high levels of debt, notably due to investments in sovereign debts of European countries such as Greece, Italy and Spain. One or more member states might exit the European Union, placing its currency and banking system in jeopardy. The European Union faces major issues involving its membership, structure, procedures and policies, including the adoption, abandonment or adjustment of the new constitutional treaty, the European Union’s enlargement to the south and east, and resolution of the European Union’s problematic fiscal and democratic accountability. Efforts of the member states to further unify their economic and monetary policies may increase the potential for the downward movement of one member state’s market to cause a similar effect on other member states’ markets. European countries that are part of the European Economic and Monetary Union may be significantly affected by the tight fiscal and monetary controls that the union seeks to impose on its members. |
¾ | Issuer-specific changes risk. The value of an individual security or particular type of security can be more volatile than the market as a whole and can perform differently from the value of the market as a whole. |
¾ | Large investor risk. An underlying fund may accept investments from funds of funds, as well as from similar investment |
18 | Invesco Allocation Funds |
vehicles, such as 529 Plans. From time to time, an underlying fund may experience large investments or redemptions due to allocations or rebalancings by these funds of funds and/or similar investment vehicles. While it is impossible to predict the overall impact of these transactions over time, there could be adverse effects on portfolio management. For example, an underlying fund may be required to sell securities or invest cash at times when it would not otherwise do so. These transactions could also have tax consequences if sales of securities result in gains, and could also increase transaction costs or portfolio turnover. |
¾ | Leverage risk. Leverage exists when an underlying fund purchases or sells an instrument or enters into a transaction without investing cash in an amount equal to the full economic exposure of the instrument or transaction and the underlying fund could lose more than it invested. Leverage created from borrowing or certain types of transactions or instruments may impair an underlying fund’s liquidity, cause it to liquidate positions at an unfavorable time, increase volatility or otherwise not achieve its intended objective. |
¾ | Liquidity risk. An underlying fund may hold illiquid securities that it is unable to sell at the preferred time or price and could lose its entire investment in such securities. |
¾ | Management risk. The investment techniques and risk analysis used by the Fund’s and the underlying funds’ portfolio managers may not produce the desired results. |
¾ | Market risk. The prices of and the income generated by an underlying fund’s securities may decline in response to, among other things, investor sentiment, general economic and market conditions, regional or global instability, and currency and interest rate fluctuations. |
¾ | Market trading risk. Risk is inherent in all investing. An investment in an underlying fund involves risks similar to those of investing in any underlying fund of equity or fixed-income securities traded on exchanges. You should anticipate that the value of the shares will decline, more or less, in correlation with any decline in value of the underlying index of certain underlying exchange-traded funds. |
¾ | Mortgage-and asset-backed securities risk. Certain of the underlying funds may invest in mortgage and asset-backed securities that are subject to |
prepayment or call risk, which is the risk that the borrower’s payments may be received earlier or later than expected due to changes in prepayment rates on underlying loans. Faster prepayments often happen when interest rates are falling. As a result, an underlying fund may reinvest these early payments at lower interest rates, thereby reducing the underlying fund’s income. Conversely, when interest rates rise, prepayments may happen more slowly, causing the security to lengthen in duration. Longer duration securities tend to be more volatile. Securities may be prepaid at a price less than the original purchase value. An unexpectedly high rate of defaults on the mortgages held by a mortgage pool may adversely affect the value of mortgage-backed securities and could result in losses to an underlying fund. The risk of such defaults is generally higher in the case of mortgage pools that include subprime mortgages. Subprime mortgages refer to loans made to borrowers with weakened credit histories or with lower capacity to make timely payments on their mortgages. |
¾ | Non-correlation risk. An underlying fund’s return may not match the return of the underlying index of certain underlying exchange-traded funds for a number of reasons. For example, the Fund incurs operating expenses not applicable to the underlying index, and incurs costs in buying and selling securities, especially when rebalancing an underlying fund’s securities holdings to reflect changes in the composition of an underlying index of certain underlying exchange-traded funds. In addition, the performance of an underlying fund and an underlying index of certain underlying exchange-traded funds may vary due to asset valuation differences and differences between an underlying fund’s portfolio and the underlying index of certain underlying exchange-traded funds resulting from legal restrictions, cost or liquidity constraints. |
¾ | Non-diversification risk. Certain of the underlying funds are non-diversified and can invest a greater portion of their assets in a single issuer. A change in the value of the issuer could affect the value of an underlying fund more than if it was a diversified fund. |
¾ | Preferred securities risk. There are special risks associated with investing in preferred securities. Preferred securities may include provisions that permit the issuer, in its discretion, to defer or omit distributions for a certain period of |
time. If an underlying fund owns a security that is deferring or omitting its distributions, an underlying fund may be required to report the distribution on its tax returns, even though it may not have received this income. Further, preferred securities may lose substantial value due to the omission or deferment of dividend payments. |
¾ | Reinvestment risk. Reinvestment risk is the risk that a bond’s cash flows (coupon income and principal repayment) will be reinvested at an interest rate below that on the original bond. |
¾ | REIT risk/real estate risk. Investments in real-estate related instruments may be affected by economic, legal, cultural, environmental or technological factors that affect property values, rents or occupancies of real estate related to and underlying fund’s holdings. Real estate companies, including REITs or similar structures, tend to be small and mid cap companies, and their shares may be more volatile and less liquid. The value of investments in real estate related companies may be affected by the quality of management, the ability to repay loans, the utilization of leverage and financial covenants related thereto, whether the company carries adequate insurance and environmental factors. If a real estate related company defaults, an underlying fund may own real estate directly, which involves the following additional risks: environmental liabilities, difficulty in valuing and selling the real estate, and economic or regulatory changes. |
¾ | Small-and mid-capitalization risk. Stocks of small and mid-sized companies tend to be more vulnerable to adverse developments in the above factors and may have little or no operating history or track record of success, and limited product lines, markets, management and financial resources. The securities of small and mid-sized companies may be more volatile due to less market interest and less publicly available information about the issuer. They also may be illiquid or restricted as to resale, or may trade less frequently and in smaller volumes, all of which may cause difficulty when establishing or closing a position at a desirable price. |
¾ | Subsidiary risk. By investing in the Subsidiary, an underlying fund is indirectly exposed to risks associated with the Subsidiary’s investments. The Subsidiary is not registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (1940 Act), and except as otherwise noted in this prospectus, is not subject |
continued on page 20
19 | Invesco Allocation Funds |
continued from page 19
to the investor protections of the 1940 Act. Changes in the laws of the United States and/or the Cayman Islands, under which the underlying fund and the Subsidiary, respectively, are organized, could result in the inability of the underlying fund and/or the Subsidiary to operate as described in the underlying fund prospectus and SAI and could negatively affect the underlying fund and its shareholders. |
¾ | Synthetic securities risk. Fluctuations in the values of synthetic securities may not correlate perfectly with the instruments they are designed to replicate. Synthetic securities may be subject to interest rate changes, market price fluctuations, counterparty risk and liquidity risk. |
¾ | Tax risk. The tax treatment of commodity-linked derivative instruments may be adversely affected by changes in legislation, regulations or other legally binding authority. If, as a result of any such adverse action, the income of Invesco Balanced-Risk Allocation Fund, an underlying fund, from certain commodity-linked derivatives was treated as non-qualifying income, Invesco Balanced-Risk Allocation Fund might fail to qualify as a regulated investment company and be subject to federal income tax at the fund level. Invesco Balanced-Risk Allocation Fund has received private letter rulings from the Internal Revenue Service confirming that income derived from its investments in the Subsidiary and a form of commodity-linked note constitutes qualifying income to Invesco Balanced-Risk Allocation Fund. However, the Internal Revenue Service has suspended issuance of any further private letter rulings pending a review of its position. Should the Internal Revenue Service issue guidance, or Congress enact legislation, that adversely affects the tax treatment of Invesco Balanced-Risk Allocation Fund’s use of commodity-linked notes, or the Subsidiary, it could limit its ability to pursue its investment strategy. In this event, Invesco Balanced-Risk Allocation Fund’s Board of Trustees may authorize a significant change in investment strategy or Fund liquidation. Invesco Balanced-Risk Allocation Fund also may incur transaction and other costs to comply with any new or additional guidance from the Internal Revenue Service. |
¾ | US government obligations risk. The Fund may invest in obligations issued by US government agencies and instrumentalities that may receive varying |
levels of support from the government, which could affect an underlying fund’s ability to recover should they default. |
¾ | Value investing risk. Certain underlying funds emphasize a value style of investing, which focuses on undervalued companies with characteristics for improved valuations. This style of investing is subject to the risk that the valuations never improve or that the returns on value equity securities are less than returns on other styles of investing or the overall stock market. Value stocks also may decline in price, even though in theory they are already underpriced. |

Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2012
NOTE 1—Significant Accounting Policies
AIM Growth Series (Invesco Growth Series) (the “Trust”) is organized as a Delaware statutory trust and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end series management investment company consisting of sixteen separate series portfolios (each constituting a “Fund”), each authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest. The Funds covered in this report, each a series portfolio of the Trust, are Invesco Conservative Allocation Fund, Invesco Growth Allocation Fund and Invesco Moderate Allocation Fund (collectively, the “Funds”). The assets, liabilities and operations of each portfolio are accounted for separately. Information presented in these financial statements pertains only to the Fund. Matters affecting each portfolio or class will be voted on exclusively by the shareholders of such portfolio or class.
The investment objectives of the Funds are: to provide total return consistent with a lower level of risk relative to the broad stock market for Invesco Conservative Allocation Fund, to provide long-term growth of capital consistent with a higher level of risk relative to the broad stock market for Invesco Growth Allocation Fund, and to provide total return consistent with a moderate level of risk relative to the broad stock market for Invesco Moderate Allocation Fund.
Each Fund is a “fund of funds,” in that it invests in other mutual funds (“underlying funds”) advised by Invesco Advisers, Inc. (“Invesco”) or exchange-traded funds advised by Invesco Powershares Capital Management LLC (“PowerShares Capital”), an affiliate of Invesco. Invesco and
26 Invesco Allocation Funds
PowerShares Capital are affiliates of each other as they are indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries of Invesco Ltd. Invesco may change each Fund’s asset class allocations, the underlying funds or target weightings in the underlying funds without shareholder approval. The underlying funds may engage in a number of investment techniques and practices, which involve certain risks. Each underlying fund’s accounting policies are outlined in the underlying fund’s financial statements and are available upon request.
Each Fund currently consists of seven different classes of shares: Class A, Class B, Class C, Class R, Class S, Class Y and Class R5. On September 24, 2012, Institutional Class shares were renamed Class R5 shares. Class A shares are sold with a front-end sales charge unless certain waiver criteria are met and under certain circumstances load waived shares may be subject to contingent deferred sales charges (“CDSC”). Class C shares are sold with a CDSC. Class R, Class S, Class Y and Class R5 shares are sold at net asset value. Effective November 30, 2010, new or additional investments in Class B shares are no longer permitted. Existing shareholders of Class B shares may continue to reinvest dividends and capital gains distributions in Class B shares until they convert to Class A shares. Also, shareholders in Class B shares will be able to exchange those shares for Class B shares of other Invesco Funds offering such shares until they convert to Class A shares. Generally, Class B shares will automatically convert to Class A shares on or about the month-end, which is at least eight years after the date of purchase. Redemption of Class B shares prior to the conversion date will be subject to a CDSC.
The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies followed by the Funds in the preparation of their financial statements.
A. | Security Valuations — Securities of investment companies that trade on an exchange are valued at the last sales price or official closing price as of the close of the customary trading session on the exchange where the security is principally traded. Investments in shares of funds that are not traded on an exchange are valued at the end of day net asset value per share of such fund. Securities in the underlying funds, including restricted securities, are valued in accordance with the valuation policy of such fund. The policies of the underlying funds affiliated with the funds as a result of having the same investment adviser are set forth below. |
A security listed or traded on an exchange (except convertible bonds) is valued at its last sales price or official closing price as of the close of the customary trading session on the exchange where the security is principally traded, or lacking any sales or official closing price on a particular day, the security may be valued at the closing bid price on that day. Securities traded in the over-the-counter market are valued based on prices furnished by independent pricing services or market makers. When such securities are valued by an independent pricing service they may be considered fair valued. Futures contracts are valued at the final settlement price set by an exchange on which they are principally traded. Listed options are valued at the mean between the last bid and ask prices from the exchange on which they are principally traded. Options not listed on an exchange are valued by an independent source at the mean between the last bid and ask prices. For purposes of determining net asset value per share, futures and option contracts generally are valued 15 minutes after the close of the customary trading session of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”).
Senior secured floating rate loans and senior secured floating rate debt securities are fair valued using an evaluated quote provided by an independent pricing service. Evaluated quotes provided by the pricing service may reflect appropriate factors such as ratings, tranche type, industry, company performance, spread, individual trading characteristics, institution-size trading in similar groups of securities and other market data.
Investments in open-end and closed-end registered investment companies that do not trade on an exchange are valued at the end of day net asset value per share. Investments in open-end and closed-end registered investment companies that trade on an exchange are valued at the last sales price or official closing price as of the close of the customary trading session on the exchange where the security is principally traded.
Debt obligations (including convertible bonds) and unlisted equities are fair valued using an evaluated quote provided by an independent pricing service. Evaluated quotes provided by the pricing service may be determined without exclusive reliance on quoted prices, and may reflect appropriate factors such as institution-size trading in similar groups of securities, developments related to specific securities, dividend rate (for unlisted equities), yield (for debt obligations), quality, type of issue, coupon rate (for debt obligations), maturity (for debt obligations), individual trading characteristics and other market data. Debt obligations are subject to interest rate and credit risks. In addition, all debt obligations involve some risk of default with respect to interest and/or principal payments.
Swap agreements are fair valued using an evaluated quote provided by an independent pricing service. Evaluated quotes provided by the pricing service are valued based on a model which may include end of day net present values, spreads, ratings, industry, and company performance.
Foreign securities’ (including foreign exchange contracts) prices are converted into U.S. dollar amounts using the applicable exchange rates as of the close of the NYSE. If market quotations are available and reliable for foreign exchange-traded equity securities, the securities will be valued at the market quotations. Because trading hours for certain foreign securities end before the close of the NYSE, closing market quotations may become unreliable. If between the time trading ends on a particular security and the close of the customary trading session on the NYSE, events occur that the Adviser determines are significant and make the closing price unreliable, the Fund may fair value the security. If the event is likely to have affected the closing price of the security, the security will be valued at fair value in good faith using procedures approved by the Board of Trustees. Adjustments to closing prices to reflect fair value may also be based on a screening process of an independent pricing service to indicate the degree of certainty, based on historical data, that the closing price in the principal market where a foreign security trade is not the current value as of the close of the NYSE. Foreign securities’ prices meeting the approved degree of certainty that the price is not reflective of current value will be priced at the indication of fair value from the independent pricing service. Multiple factors may be considered by the independent pricing service in determining adjustments to reflect fair value and may include information relating to sector indices, American Depositary Receipts and domestic and foreign index futures. Foreign securities may have additional risks including exchange rate changes, potential for sharply devalued currencies and high inflation, political and economic upheaval, the relative lack of issuer information, relatively low market liquidity and the potential lack of strict financial and accounting controls and standards.
Securities for which market prices are not provided by any of the above methods may be valued based upon quotes furnished by independent sources. The last bid price may be used to value equity securities. The mean between the last bid and asked prices is used to value debt obligations, including corporate loans.
Securities for which market quotations are not readily available or became unreliable are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by or under the supervision of the Trust’s officers following procedures approved by the Board of Trustees. Issuer specific events, market trends, bid/ask quotes of brokers and information providers and other market data may be reviewed in the course of making a good faith determination of a security’s fair value.
27 Invesco Allocation Funds
Valuations change in response to many factors including the historical and prospective earnings of the issuer, the value of the issuer’s assets, general economic conditions, interest rates, investor perceptions and market liquidity. Because of the inherent uncertainties of valuation, the values reflected in the financial statements may materially differ from the value received upon actual sale of those investments.
B. | Securities Transactions and Investment Income — Securities transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Realized gains or losses on sales are computed on the basis of specific identification of the securities sold. Distributions from ordinary income from underlying funds, if any, are recorded as dividend income on ex-dividend date. Distributions from gains from underlying funds, if any, are recorded as realized gains on the ex-dividend date. The following policies are followed by the underlying funds: Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis from settlement date. Bond premiums and discounts are amortized and/or accreted for financial reporting purposes. Paydown gains and losses on mortgage and asset-backed securities are recorded as adjustments to interest income. |
The Fund allocates income and realized and unrealized capital gains and losses to a class based on the relative net assets of each class.
C. | Distributions — Distributions from income and net realized capital gain, if any, are generally declared and paid annually and recorded on the ex-dividend date. The Funds may elect to treat a portion of the proceeds from redemptions as distributions for federal tax purposes. |
D. | Federal Income Taxes — The Funds intend to comply with the requirements of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code necessary to qualify as a regulated investment company and to distribute substantially all of the Funds’ taxable earnings to shareholders. As such, the Funds will not be subject to federal income taxes on otherwise taxable income (including net realized capital gain) that is distributed to shareholders. Therefore, no provision for federal income taxes is recorded in the financial statements. |
Each Fund files tax returns in the U.S. Federal jurisdiction and certain other jurisdictions. Generally, each Fund is subject to examinations by such taxing authorities for up to three years after the filing of the return for the tax period.
E. | Expenses — Expenses included in the accompanying financial statements reflect the expenses of the Funds and do not include any expenses of the underlying funds. The effects of the underlying funds expenses are included in the realized and unrealized gain/loss on the investments in the underlying funds. |
Fees provided for under the Rule 12b-1 plan of a particular class of each Fund and which are directly attributable to that class are charged to the operations of such class. Transfer agency fees and expenses and other shareholder recordkeeping fees and expenses attributable to Class R5 are charged to such class. Transfer agency fees and expenses and other shareholder recordkeeping fees and expenses relating to all other classes are allocated among those classes based on relative net assets. All other expenses are allocated among the classes based on relative net assets.
F. | Accounting Estimates — The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period including estimates and assumptions related to taxation. Actual results could differ from those estimates by a significant amount. In addition, the Fund monitors for material events or transactions that may occur or become known after the period-end date and before the date the financial statements are released to print. |
G. | Indemnifications — Under the Trust’s organizational documents, each Trustee, officer, employee or other agent of the Trust is indemnified against certain liabilities that may arise out of the performance of their duties to the Funds. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Funds enter into contracts, including each Funds’ servicing agreements, that contain a variety of indemnification clauses. Each Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against such Fund that have not yet occurred. The risk of material loss as a result of such indemnification claims is considered remote. |
NOTE 2—Advisory Fees and Other Fees Paid to Affiliates
The Trust has entered into a master investment advisory agreement with Invesco. Under the terms of the investment advisory agreement, the Funds do not pay an advisory fee. However, each Fund pays advisory fees to Invesco indirectly as a shareholder of the underlying funds.
Under the terms of a master sub-advisory agreement between the Adviser and each of Invesco Asset Management Deutschland GmbH, Invesco Asset Management Limited, Invesco Asset Management (Japan) Limited, Invesco Australia Limited, Invesco Hong Kong Limited, Invesco Senior Secured Management, Inc. and Invesco Canada Ltd. (collectively, the “Affiliated Sub-Advisers”) the Adviser, not the Funds, may pay 40% of the fees paid to the Adviser to any such Affiliated Sub-Adviser(s) that provide discretionary investment management services to each Fund or underlying funds based on the percentage of assets allocated to such Sub-Adviser(s).
Effective July 1, 2012, Invesco has contractually agreed, through June 30, 2013, to reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to limit total annual fund operating expenses after expense reimbursement (excluding certain items discussed below) of Class A, Class B, Class C, Class R, Class S, Class Y and Class R5 shares for each Fund as shown in the following table:
Class A | Class B | Class C | Class R | Class S | Class Y | Class R5 | ||||||||||||||||||||||

Prior to July 1, 2012, Invesco had contractually agreed to reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to limit total annual fund operating expenses after expense reimbursement (excluding certain items discussed below) of Class A, Class B, Class C, Class R, Class S, Class Y and Class R5 shares for each Fund as shown in the following table:
Class A | Class B | Class C | Class R | Class S | Class Y | Class R5 | ||||||||||||||||||||||

28 Invesco Allocation Funds
In determining Invesco’s obligation to reimburse expenses, the following expenses are not taken into account, and could cause the total annual fund operating expenses after expense reimbursement to exceed the numbers reflected above: (1) interest; (2) taxes; (3) dividend expense on short sales; (4) extraordinary or non-routine items, including litigation expenses; and (5) expenses that the Fund has incurred but did not actually pay because of an expense offset arrangement. Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses are not fees and expenses incurred by the Funds directly but are fees and expenses, including management fees, of the investment companies in which the Funds invest. As a result, total annual fund operating expenses after expense reimbursement may exceed the expense limits above. You incur these expenses indirectly through the valuation of each Fund’s investment in those investment companies. The impact of the Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses are included in the total return of the Funds. Unless the Board of Trustees and Invesco mutually agree to amend or continue the fee waiver agreement, it will terminate on June 30, 2013.
For the year ended December 31, 2012, Invesco reimbursed the following expenses:

Invesco Moderate Allocation Fund | 279,656 | 48,401 | 65,383 | 10,696 | 19,805 | 1,595 | — |
The Trust has entered into a master administrative services agreement with Invesco pursuant to which each Fund has agreed to pay Invesco for certain administrative costs incurred in providing accounting services to such Fund. For the year ended December 31, 2012, expenses incurred under the agreement are shown in the Statement of Operations as Administrative services fees.
The Trust has entered into a transfer agency and service agreement with Invesco Investment Services, Inc. (“IIS”) pursuant to which each Fund has agreed to pay IIS a fee for providing transfer agency and shareholder services to the Fund and reimburse IIS for certain expenses incurred by IIS in the course of providing such services. IIS may make payments to intermediaries that provide omnibus account services, sub-accounting services and/or networking services. All fees payable by IIS to intermediaries that provide omnibus account services or sub-accounting are charged back to each Fund, subject to certain limitations approved by the Trust’s Board of Trustees. For the year ended December 31, 2012, expenses incurred under the agreement are shown in the Statement of Operations as Transfer agent fees.
The Trust has entered into master distribution agreements with Invesco Distributors, Inc. (“IDI”) to serve as the distributor for the Class A, Class B, Class C, Class R, Class S, Class Y and Class R5 shares of each Fund. The Trust has adopted plans pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act with respect to each Fund’s Class A, Class B, Class C, Class R and Class S shares (collectively, the “Plans”). Each Fund, pursuant to the Plans, pays IDI compensation at the annual rate of 0.25% of each Fund’s average daily net assets of Class A shares, 1.00% of the average daily net assets of Class B and Class C shares, 0.50% of the average daily net assets of Class R shares and 0.15% of the average daily net assets of Class S shares. Of the Plan payments, up to 0.25% of the average daily net assets of Class A, Class B, Class C and Class R shares and 0.15% of the average daily net assets of Class S shares may be paid to furnish continuing personal shareholder services to customers who purchase and own shares of such classes. Any amounts not paid as a service fee under the Plans would constitute an asset-based sales charge. Rules of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) impose a cap on the total sales charges, including asset-based sales charges, that may be paid by any class of shares of the Fund. For the year ended December 31, 2012, expenses incurred under the Plans are shown in the Statement of Operations as Distribution fees.
Front-end sales commissions and CDSC (collectively, the “sales charges”) are not recorded as expenses of the Funds. Front-end sales commissions are deducted from proceeds from the sales of Fund shares prior to investment in Class A shares of the Funds. CDSC are deducted from redemption proceeds prior to remittance to the shareholder. During the year ended December 31, 2012, IDI advised the Funds that IDI retained the following in front-end sales commissions from the sale of Class A shares and received the following in CDCS imposed on redemptions by shareholders:
Front End Sales Charges | Contingent Deferred Sales Charges | |||||||||||||||

Invesco Moderate Allocation Fund | 238,904 | 658 | 99,285 | 7,191 |
The underlying Invesco Funds pay no distribution fees for Class R5 and Class R6 shares and the Funds pay no sales loads or other similar compensation to IDI for acquiring the underlying fund shares.
Certain officers and trustees of the Trust are officers and directors of the Adviser, IIS and/or IDI.
NOTE 3—Additional Valuation Information
GAAP defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date, under current market conditions. GAAP establishes a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation methods giving the highest priority to readily available unadjusted quoted prices in an active market for identical assets (Level 1) and the lowest priority to significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) generally when market prices are not readily available or are unreliable. Based on the valuation inputs, the securities or other investments are tiered into one of three levels. Changes in valuation methods may result in transfers in or out of an investment’s assigned level:
Level 1 — | Prices are determined using quoted prices in an active market for identical assets. |
Level 2 — | Prices are determined using other significant observable inputs. Observable inputs are inputs that other market participants may use in pricing a security. These may include quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, yield curves, loss severities, default rates, discount rates, volatilities and others. |
Level 3 — | Prices are determined using significant unobservable inputs. In situations where quoted prices or observable inputs are unavailable (for example, when there is little or no market activity for an investment at the end of the period), unobservable inputs may be used. Unobservable inputs reflect the Fund’s own assumptions about the factors market participants would use in determining fair value of the securities or instruments and would be based on the best available information. |
29 Invesco Allocation Funds
The following is a summary of the tiered valuation input levels, as of December 31, 2012. The level assigned to the securities valuations may not be an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with investing in those securities.

NOTE 4—Expense Offset Arrangement(s)
The expense offset arrangement is comprised of transfer agency credits which result from balances in Demand Deposit Accounts (DDA) used by the transfer agent for clearing shareholder transactions. For the year ended December 31, 2012, the Funds received credits from this arrangement, which resulted in the reduction of the Funds’ total expenses of:

NOTE 5—Trustees’ and Officers’ Fees and Benefits
“Trustees’ and Officers’ Fees and Benefits” include amounts accrued by each Fund to pay remuneration to certain Trustees and Officers of such Fund. Trustees have the option to defer compensation payable by the Funds, and “Trustees’ and Officers’ Fees and Benefits” also include amounts accrued by each Fund to fund such deferred compensation amounts. Those Trustees who defer compensation have the option to select various Invesco Funds in which their deferral accounts shall be deemed to be invested. Finally, certain current Trustees are eligible to participate in a retirement plan that provides for benefits to be paid upon retirement to Trustees over a period of time based on the number of years of service. The Funds may have certain former Trustees who also participate in a retirement plan and receive benefits under such plan. “Trustees’ and Officers’ Fees and Benefits” include amounts accrued by each Fund to fund such retirement benefits. Obligations under the deferred compensation and retirement plans represent unsecured claims against the general assets of the Funds.
NOTE 6—Cash Balances
The Funds are permitted to temporarily carry a negative or overdrawn balance in their account with State Street Bank and Trust Company, the custodian bank. Such balances, if any at period end, are shown in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities under the payable caption Amount due custodian. To compensate the custodian bank for such overdrafts, the overdrawn Fund may either (1) leave funds as a compensating balance in the account so the custodian bank can be compensated by earning the additional interest; or (2) compensate by paying the custodian bank at a rate agreed upon by the custodian bank and Invesco, not to exceed the contractually agreed upon rate.

The difference between book-basis and tax-basis unrealized appreciation (depreciation) is due to differences in the timing of recognition of gains and losses on investments for tax and book purposes. The Funds net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) differences are attributable primarily to wash sales.
The temporary book/tax differences are a result of timing differences between book and tax recognition of income and/or expenses. The Funds temporary book/tax differences are the result of the trustee deferral of compensation and retirement plan benefits.
Capital loss carryforward is calculated and reported as of a specific date. Results of transactions and other activity after that date may affect the amount of capital loss carryforward actually available for the Fund to utilize. The Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010
30 Invesco Allocation Funds
(the “Act”) eliminated the eight-year carryover period for capital losses that arise in taxable years beginning after its enactment date of December 22, 2010. Consequently, these capital losses can be carried forward for an unlimited period. However, capital losses with an expiration period may not be used to offset capital gains until all net capital losses without an expiration date have been utilized. Additionally, post-enactment capital loss carryovers will retain their character as either short-term or long-term capital losses instead of as short-term capital losses as under prior law. The ability to utilize capital loss carryforward in the future may be limited under the Internal Revenue Code and related regulations based on the results of future transactions.
The Funds capital loss carryforward limitations and amounts utilized in the current period to offset net realized capital gain for federal income tax purposes as follows:

(a) | Calculated using average shares outstanding. |
(b) | Includes adjustments in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and as such, the net asset value for financial reporting purposes and the returns based upon those net asset values may differ from the net asset value and returns for shareholder transactions. Does not include sales charges and is not annualized for periods less than one year, if applicable. |
(c) | In addition to the fees and expenses which the Fund bears directly; the Fund indirectly bears a pro rata share of the fees and expenses of the underlying funds in which the Fund invests. Because the underlying funds have varied expenses and fee levels and the Fund may own different proportions at different times, the amount of fees and expenses incurred indirectly by the Fund will vary. Estimated underlying fund expenses are not expenses that are incurred directly by your Fund. They are expenses that are incurred directly by the underlying funds and are deducted from the value of the funds your Fund invests in. The effect of the estimated underlying fund expenses that you bear indirectly is included in your Fund’s total return. Estimated acquired fund fees from underlying funds were 0.64%, 0.64%, 0.64%, 0.67% and 0.69% for the years ended December 31, 2012, December 31, 2011, December 31, 2010, December 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively. |
(d) | Portfolio turnover is calculated at the fund level and is not annualized for periods less than one year, if applicable. For the period ending December 31, 2011, the portfolio turnover calculation excludes the value of securities purchased of $226,619,088 and sold of $49,277,466 in the effort to realign the Fund’s portfolio holdings after the reorganization of Invesco Conservative Allocation Fund and Invesco Van Kampen Asset Allocation Conservative Fund into the Fund. |
(e) | Ratios are annualized and based on average daily net assets (000’s omitted) of $215,079, $33,593, $60,530, $9,114, $2,746, $2,283 and $61 for Class A, Class B, Class C, Class R, Class S, Class Y and Class R5 shares, respectively. |
(f) | Commencement date of June 6, 2011 for Class S shares and October 3, 2008 for Class Y shares. |

(c) | In addition to the fees and expenses which the Fund bears directly; the Fund indirectly bears a pro rata share of the fees and expenses of the underlying funds in which the Fund invests.

Estimated underlying fund expenses are not expenses that are incurred directly by your Fund. They are expenses that are incurred directly by the underlying funds and are deducted from the value of the funds your Fund invests in. The effect of the estimated underlying fund expenses that you bear indirectly is included in your Fund’s total return. Estimated acquired fund fees from underlying funds were 0.78%, 0.78%, 0.77%, 0.82% and 0.80% for the years ended December 31, 2012, December 31, 2011, December 31, 2010, December 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively. |

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Board of Trustees of AIM Growth Series (Invesco Growth Series)
and Shareholders of Invesco Conservative Allocation Fund,
Invesco Growth Allocation Fund
and Invesco Moderate Allocation Fund:
In our opinion, the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the schedules of investments, and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Invesco Conservative Allocation Fund, Invesco Growth Allocation Fund and Invesco Moderate Allocation Fund (three of the funds constituting AIM Growth Series (Invesco Growth Series), hereafter referred to as the “Funds”) at December 31, 2012, the results of each of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in each of their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and each of their financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as “financial statements”) are the responsibility of the Funds’ management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with 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 are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at December 31, 2012 by correspondence with the custodian and transfer agent, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Calculating your ongoing Fund expenses
Example
As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, which may include sales charges (loads) on purchase payments or contingent deferred sales charges on redemptions, and redemption fees, if any; and (2) ongoing costs, including distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees, and other Fund expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period July 1, 2012, through December 31, 2012.
In addition to the fees and expenses which the Fund bears directly, the Fund indirectly bears a pro rata share of the fees and expenses of the underlying funds in which your Fund invests. The amount of fees and expenses incurred indirectly by your Fund will vary because the underlying funds have varied expenses and fee levels and the Fund may own different proportions of the underlying funds at different times. Estimated underlying fund expenses are not expenses that are incurred directly by your Fund. They are expenses that are incurred directly by the underlying funds and are deducted from the value of the underlying funds your Fund invests in. The effect of the estimated underlying fund expenses that you bear indirectly are included in your Fund’s total return.
Actual expenses
The table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this table, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the table under the heading entitled “Actual Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical example for comparison purposes
The table below also provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return.
The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example 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 transaction costs, such as sales charges (loads) on purchase payments, contingent deferred sales charges on redemptions, and redemption fees, if any. Therefore, the hypothetical information is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, expenses shown in the table do not include the expenses of the underlying funds, which are borne indirectly by the Fund. If transaction costs and indirect expenses were included, your costs would have been higher.

PRE-APPROVAL OF AUDIT AND NON-AUDIT SERVICES
POLICIES AND PROCEDURES
As adopted by the Audit Committees of
the Invesco Funds (the “Funds”)
Last Amended May 4, 2010
Statement of Principles
Under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and rules adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) (“Rules”), the Audit Committees of the Funds’ (the “Audit Committees”) Board of Trustees (the “Board”) are responsible for the appointment, compensation and oversight of the work of independent accountants (an “Auditor”). As part of this responsibility and to assure that the Auditor’s independence is not impaired, the Audit Committees pre-approve the audit and non-audit services provided to the Funds by each Auditor, as well as all non-audit services provided by the Auditor to the Funds’ investment adviser and to affiliates of the adviser that provide ongoing services to the Funds (“Service Affiliates”) if the services directly impact the Funds’ operations or financial reporting. The SEC Rules also specify the types of services that an Auditor may not provide to its audit client. The following policies and procedures comply with the requirements for pre-approval and provide a mechanism by which management of the Funds may request and secure pre-approval of audit and non-audit services in an orderly manner with minimal disruption to normal business operations.
Proposed services either may be pre-approved without consideration of specific case-by-case services by the Audit Committees (“general pre-approval”) or require the specific pre-approval of the Audit Committees (“specific pre-approval”). As set forth in these policies and procedures, unless a type of service has received general pre-approval, it will require specific pre-approval by the Audit Committees. Additionally, any fees exceeding 110% of estimated pre-approved fee levels provided at the time the service was pre-approved will also require specific approval by the Audit Committees before payment is made. The Audit Committees will also consider the impact of additional fees on the Auditor’s independence when determining whether to approve any additional fees for previously pre-approved services.
The Audit Committees will annually review and generally pre-approve the services that may be provided by each Auditor without obtaining specific pre-approval from the Audit Committee generally on an annual basis. The term of any general pre-approval runs from the date of such pre-approval through September 30th of the following year, unless the Audit Committees consider a different period and state otherwise. The Audit Committees will add to or subtract from the list of general pre-approved services from time to time, based on subsequent determinations.
The purpose of these policies and procedures is to set forth the guidelines to assist the Audit Committees in fulfilling their responsibilities.
Delegation
The Audit Committees may from time to time delegate pre-approval authority to one or more of its members who are Independent Trustees. All decisions to pre-approve a service by a delegated member shall be reported to the Audit Committees at the next quarterly meeting.
Audit Services
The annual audit services engagement terms will be subject to specific pre-approval of the Audit Committees. Audit services include the annual financial statement audit and other procedures such as tax provision work that is required to be performed by the independent auditor to be able to form an opinion on the Funds’ financial statements. The Audit Committees will obtain, review and consider sufficient information concerning the proposed Auditor to make a reasonable evaluation of the Auditor’s qualifications and independence.
In addition to the annual Audit services engagement, the Audit Committees may grant either general or specific pre-approval of other audit services, which are those services that only the independent auditor reasonably can provide. Other Audit services may include services such as issuing consents for the inclusion of audited financial statements with SEC registration statements, periodic reports and other documents filed with the SEC or other documents issued in connection with securities offerings.
Non-Audit Services
The Audit Committees may provide either general or specific pre-approval of any non-audit services to the Funds and its Service Affiliates if the Audit Committees believe that the provision of the service will not impair the independence of the Auditor, is consistent with the SEC’s Rules on auditor independence, and otherwise conforms to the Audit Committees’ general principles and policies as set forth herein.
Audit-Related Services
“Audit-related services” are assurance and related services that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit or review of the Fund’s financial statements or that are traditionally performed by the independent auditor. Audit-related services include, among others, accounting consultations related to accounting, financial reporting or disclosure matters not classified as “Audit services”; assistance with understanding and implementing new accounting and financial reporting guidance from rulemaking authorities; and agreed-upon procedures related to mergers, compliance with ratings agency requirements and interfund lending activities.
Tax Services
“Tax services” include, but are not limited to, the review and signing of the Funds’ federal tax returns, the review of required distributions by the Funds and consultations regarding tax matters such as the tax treatment of new investments or the impact of new regulations. The Audit Committees will scrutinize carefully the retention of the Auditor in connection with a transaction initially recommended by the Auditor, the major business purpose of which may be tax avoidance or the tax treatment of which may not be supported in the Internal Revenue Code and related regulations. The Audit Committees will consult with the Funds’ Treasurer (or his or her designee) and may consult with outside counsel or advisors as necessary to ensure the consistency of Tax services rendered by the Auditor with the foregoing policy.
No Auditor shall represent any Fund or any Service Affiliate before a tax court, district court or federal court of claims.
Under rules adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board and approved by the SEC, in connection with seeking Audit Committees’ pre-approval of permissible Tax services, the Auditor shall:
1. | Describe in writing to the Audit Committees, which writing may be in the form of the proposed engagement letter: |
a. | The scope of the service, the fee structure for the engagement, and any side letter or amendment to the engagement letter, or any other agreement between the Auditor and the Fund, relating to the service; and |
b. | Any compensation arrangement or other agreement, such as a referral agreement, a referral fee or fee-sharing arrangement, between the Auditor and any person (other than the Fund) with respect to the promoting, marketing, or recommending of a transaction covered by the service; |
2. | Discuss with the Audit Committees the potential effects of the services on the independence of the Auditor; and |
3. | Document the substance of its discussion with the Audit Committees. |
All Other Auditor Services
The Audit Committees may pre-approve non-audit services classified as “All other services” that are not categorically prohibited by the SEC, as listed in Exhibit 1 to this policy.
Pre-Approval Fee Levels or Established Amounts
Pre-approval of estimated fees or established amounts for services to be provided by the Auditor under general or specific pre-approval policies will be set periodically by the Audit Committees. Any proposed fees exceeding 110% of the maximum estimated pre-approved fees or established amounts for pre-approved audit and non-audit services will be reported to the Audit Committees at the quarterly Audit Committees meeting and will require specific approval by the Audit Committees before payment is made. The Audit Committees will always factor in the overall relationship of fees for audit and non-audit services in determining whether to pre-approve any such services and in determining whether to approve any additional fees exceeding 110% of the maximum pre-approved fees or established amounts for previously pre-approved services.
Procedures
Generally on an annual basis, Invesco Advisers, Inc. (“Invesco”) will submit to the Audit Committees for general pre-approval, a list of non-audit services that the Funds or Service Affiliates of the Funds may request from the Auditor. The list will describe the non-audit services in reasonable detail and will include an estimated range of fees and such other information as the Audit Committee may request.
Each request for services to be provided by the Auditor under the general pre-approval of the Audit Committees will be submitted to the Funds’ Treasurer (or his or her designee) and must include a detailed description of the services to be rendered. The Treasurer or his or her designee will ensure that such services are included within the list of services that have received the general pre-approval of the Audit Committees. The Audit Committees will be informed at the next quarterly scheduled Audit Committees meeting of any such services for which the Auditor rendered an invoice and whether such services and fees had been pre-approved and if so, by what means.
Each request to provide services that require specific approval by the Audit Committees shall be submitted to the Audit Committees jointly by the Fund’s Treasurer or his or her designee and the Auditor, and must include a joint statement that, in their view, such request is consistent with the policies and procedures and the SEC Rules.
Each request to provide tax services under either the general or specific pre-approval of the Audit Committees will describe in writing: (i) the scope of the service, the fee structure for the engagement, and any side letter or amendment to the engagement letter, or any other agreement between the Auditor and the audit client, relating to the service; and (ii) any compensation arrangement or other agreement between the Auditor and any person (other than the audit client) with respect to the promoting, marketing, or recommending of a transaction covered by the service. The Auditor will discuss with the Audit Committees the potential effects of the services on the Auditor’s independence and will document the substance of the discussion.
Non-audit services pursuant to the de minimis exception provided by the SEC Rules will be promptly brought to the attention of the Audit Committees for approval, including documentation that each of the conditions for this exception, as set forth in the SEC Rules, has been satisfied.
On at least an annual basis, the Auditor will prepare a summary of all the services provided to any entity in the investment company complex as defined in section 2-01(f)(14) of Regulation S-X in sufficient detail as to the nature of the engagement and the fees associated with those services.
The Audit Committees have designated the Funds’ Treasurer to monitor the performance of all services provided by the Auditor and to ensure such services are in compliance with these policies and procedures. The Funds’ Treasurer will report to the Audit Committees on a periodic basis as to the results of such monitoring. Both the Funds’ Treasurer and management of Invesco will immediately report to the chairman of the Audit Committees any breach of these policies and procedures that comes to the attention of the Funds’ Treasurer or senior management of Invesco.
