FUND PERFORMANCE DISCUSSION
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE. The Fund's performance during 2004
was driven primarily by good results from its investments in the emerging
markets and U.S. high-yield corporate bonds, as well as by favorable movements
in foreign currency exchange rates.
The Fund's relatively heavy exposure to emerging-market bonds contributed
positively to performance. We focused primarily on nations that either are
reducing their external debt or making the transition from high rates of
inflation to lower ones. For example, debt securities from Brazil proved
particularly beneficial as the nation reformed its financial system and achieved
a lower rate of inflation after many years of sharply rising prices. At the same
time, Brazil's economy has benefited from greater global demand for basic
materials. In another example, Russia has continued to emerge as a major force
in the global oil industry, and has used some of the proceeds from its oil
revenues to pay down its debt, instilling greater confidence among investors and
rating agencies.
The Fund's investments in the foreign currencies of major industrialized
regions, including the euro and yen, fared well when the U.S. dollar weakened.
We believe that the U.S. current account deficit and a ballooning U.S. federal
budget deficit were important factors in the U.S. dollar's decline. In
anticipation of the declining U.S. dollar, we increased the Fund's exposure to
foreign bonds denominated in local currencies. As a result, the Fund achieved
attractive returns from securities issued by the governments of Brazil, Russia
and Turkey.
Among high-yield corporate bonds, results were particularly strong early
in the reporting period, when bonds in the "triple-C" range produced higher
returns than more highly rated securities. The Fund especially benefited from
its investments in the high-yield debt of companies in the telecommunications,
energy, retail and basic materials industries. Later in the reporting period,
however, we shifted our focus to corporate bonds with credit ratings in the
"double-B" range, which historically have tended to perform well in the later
stages of the credit cycle. However, we may have made this move too soon,
because returns from bonds in this rating category continued to lag behind their
lower-rated counterparts.
Although the Fund's holdings of U.S. government securities contributed
less positively than other areas, the Fund nonetheless benefited from its
emphasis on mortgage-backed securities within the sector. Mortgage-backed
securities from federal agencies fared better than U.S. Treasury securities as
interest rates rose and fewer homeowners refinanced their mortgages.
However, the Fund's performance was hindered by its duration positioning,
or, a measure of how long its bonds would be repaid by their coupon payments and
returns of principal, on average. Generally, the higher the duration, the
greater a bond's price volatility. For much of the reporting period, we sought
to limit the Fund's duration. While this stance helped preserve value during
periodic market declines, it limited the Fund's participation in market rallies
and was primarily responsible for producing returns than lagged behind industry
averages for the reporting period overall.
We have continued to maintain the Fund's average duration in a relatively
short position in anticipation of higher interest rates. In addition, we have
attempted to reduce the Fund's exposure to credit risk by focusing on "double-B"
rated high-yield securities and better-quality bonds from the emerging markets.
COMPARING THE FUND'S PERFORMANCE TO THE MARKET. The graphs that follow show the
performance of a hypothetical $10,000 investment in each share class of the Fund
held until December 31, 2004. In the case of Non-Service shares, performance is
measured over a ten fiscal year period. In the case of Service shares,
performance is measured from inception of the class on March 19, 2001.
Performance information does not reflect charges that apply to separate accounts
investing in the Fund. If these charges were taken into account, performance
would be lower. The graph assumes that all dividends and capital gains
distributions were reinvested in additional shares.
The Fund's performance is compared to the performance of the Lehman
Brothers Aggregate Bond Index, an unmanaged index of U.S. corporate and
government bonds, and to the Citigroup World Government Bond Index, an unmanaged
index of debt securities of major foreign governments. Index performance
reflects the reinvestment of income but does not consider the effect of
transaction costs, and none of the data in the graphs shows the effect of taxes.
The Fund's performance reflects the effects of the Fund's business and operating
expenses. While index comparisons may be useful to provide a benchmark for the
Fund's performance, it must be noted that the Fund's investments are not limited
to the investments in the index.

FUND EXPENSES
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FUND EXPENSES. As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1)
transaction costs, which may include redemption fees, if any; 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 December 31, 2004.
ACTUAL EXPENSES. The "actual" lines of the table provide information about
actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information on this
line 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 "actual" line 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 "hypothetical" lines of the
table provide 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 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 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 charges associated with the separate
accounts that offer this Fund. Therefore, the "hypothetical" lines of the table
are useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the
relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these separate
account charges were included, your costs would have been higher.

1. Represents the current interest rate for a variable or increasing rate
security.
2. Illiquid or restricted security. The aggregate value of illiquid or
restricted securities as of December 31, 2004 was $26,847,365, which represents
3.13% of the Fund's net assets, of which $70,658 is considered restricted. See
Note 11 of Notes to Financial Statements.
3. Issue is in default. See Note 1 of Notes to Financial Statements.
4. Non-income producing security.

December 31, 2004. See Note 1 of Notes to Financial Statements.
6. Interest-Only Strips represent the right to receive the monthly interest
payments on an underlying pool of mortgage loans. These securities typically
decline in price as interest rates decline. Most other fixed income securities
increase in price when interest rates decline. The principal amount of the
underlying pool represents the notional amount on which current interest is
calculated. The price of these securities is typically more sensitive to changes
in prepayment rates than traditional mortgage-backed securities (for example,
GNMA pass-throughs). Interest rates disclosed represent current yields based
upon the current cost basis and estimated timing and amount of future cash
flows. These securities amount to $2,971,051 or 0.35% of the Fund's net assets
as of December 31, 2004.
7. Represents securities sold under Rule 144A, which are exempt from
registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. These securities have
been determined to be liquid under guidelines established by the Board of
Trustees. These securities amount to $78,866,795 or 9.20% of the Fund's net
assets as of December 31, 2004.
8. Zero coupon bond reflects effective yield on the date of purchase.
9. All or a portion of the security is held in collateralized accounts to cover
initial margin requirements on open futures sales contracts with an aggregate
market value of $1,957,202. See Note 6 of Notes to Financial Statements.
10. A sufficient amount of securities has been designated to cover outstanding
foreign currency contracts. See Note 5 of Notes to Financial Statements.

interest rate at a designated future date.
14. Interest or dividend is paid-in-kind.
15. Received as the result of issuer reorganization.

the cash collateral received in securities lending transactions upon the
borrower's return of the securities loaned. See Note 12 of Notes to Financial
Statements.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Oppenheimer Strategic Bond Fund/VA (the Fund) is a separate series of
Oppenheimer Variable Account Funds (the Trust), an open-end management
investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended. The Fund's investment objective is to seek a high level of current
income principally derived from interest on debt securities. The Trust's
investment advisor is OppenheimerFunds, Inc. (the Manager).
The Fund offers two classes of shares. Both classes are sold at their
offering price, which is the net asset value per share, to separate investment
accounts of participating insurance companies as an underlying investment for
variable life insurance policies, variable annuity contracts or other investment
products. The class of shares designated as Service shares is subject to a
distribution and service plan. Both 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.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently
followed by the Fund.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SECURITIES VALUATION. The Fund calculates the net asset value of its shares 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 business. Securities listed
or traded on National Stock Exchanges or other domestic or foreign exchanges are
valued based on the last sale price of the security traded on that exchange
prior to the time when the Fund's assets are valued. Securities traded on NASDAQ
are valued based on the closing price provided by NASDAQ prior to the time when
the Fund's assets are valued. In the absence of a sale, the security is valued
at the last sale price on the prior trading day, if it is within the spread of
the closing bid and asked prices, and if not, at the closing bid price.
Corporate, government and municipal debt instruments having a remaining maturity
in excess of 60 days and all mortgage-backed securities will be valued at the
mean between the "bid" and "asked" prices. Securities may be valued primarily
using dealer-supplied valuations or a portfolio pricing service authorized by
the Board of Trustees. Securities (including restricted securities) for which
market quotations are not readily available are valued at their fair value.
Foreign and domestic securities whose values have been materially affected by
what the Manager identifies as a significant event occurring before the Fund's
assets are valued but after the close of their respective exchanges will be fair
valued. Fair value is determined in good faith using consistently applied
procedures under the supervision of the Board of Trustees. Short-term "money
market type" debt securities with remaining maturities of sixty days or less are
valued at amortized cost (which approximates market value).
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
STRUCTURED NOTES. The Fund invests in structured notes whose market values,
interest rates and/or redemption prices are linked to the performance of
underlying foreign currencies, interest rate spreads, stock market indices,
prices of individual securities, commodities or other financial instruments or
the occurrence of other specific events. The structured notes are often
leveraged, increasing the volatility of each note's market value relative to the
change in the underlying linked financial element or event. Fluctuations in
value of these securities are recorded as unrealized gains and losses in the
accompanying financial statements. The Fund records a realized gain or loss when
a structured note is sold or matures. As of December 31, 2004, the market value
of these securities comprised 10.2% of the Fund's net assets and resulted in
unrealized cumulative gains of $5,027,560.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SECURITIES ON A WHEN-ISSUED BASIS OR FORWARD COMMITMENT. Delivery and payment
for securities that have been purchased by the Fund on a when-issued basis or
forward commitment can take place up to ten days or more after the trade date.
Normally the settlement date occurs within six months after the trade date;
however, the Fund may, from time to time, purchase securities whose settlement
date extends six months or more beyond trade date. During this period, such
securities do not earn interest, are subject to market fluctuation and may
increase or decrease in value prior to their delivery. The Fund maintains
internally designated assets with a market value equal to or greater than the
amount of its purchase commitments. The purchase of securities on a when-issued
basis or forward commitment may increase the volatility of the Fund's net asset
value to the extent the Fund executes such transactions while
36 | OPPENHEIMER STRATEGIC BOND FUND/VA
remaining substantially fully invested. The Fund may also sell securities that
it purchased on a when-issued basis or forward commitment prior to settlement of
the original purchase. As of December 31, 2004, the Fund had purchased
$73,731,367 of securities on a when-issued basis or forward commitment and sold
$12,465,550 of securities issued on a when-issued basis or forward commitment.
In connection with its ability to purchase or sell securities on a
when-issued basis, the Fund may enter into forward roll transactions with
respect to mortgage-related securities. Forward roll transactions require the
sale of securities for delivery in the current month, and a simultaneous
agreement with the same counterparty to repurchase similar (same type, coupon
and maturity) but not identical securities on a specified future date. The Fund
records the incremental difference between the forward purchase and sale of each
forward roll as realized gain (loss) on investments or as fee income in the case
of such transactions that have an associated fee in lieu of a difference in the
forward purchase and sale price.
Risks of entering into forward roll transactions include the potential
inability of the counterparty to meet the terms of the agreement; the potential
of the Fund to receive inferior securities at redelivery as compared to the
securities sold to the counterparty; counterparty credit risk; and the potential
pay down speed variance between the mortgage-related pools.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SECURITY CREDIT RISK. The Fund invests in high-yield securities, which may be
subject to a greater degree of credit risk, market fluctuations and loss of
income and principal, and may be more sensitive to economic conditions than
lower-yielding, higher-rated fixed-income securities. The Fund may acquire
securities in default, and is not obligated to dispose of securities whose
issuers subsequently default. As of December 31, 2004, securities with an
aggregate market value of $4,866,448, representing 0.57% of the Fund's net
assets, were in default.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION. The Fund's accounting records are maintained in
U.S. dollars. Prices of securities denominated in foreign currencies are
translated into U.S. dollars 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
business. Amounts related to the purchase and sale of foreign securities and
investment income are translated at the rates of exchange prevailing on the
respective dates of such transactions. Foreign exchange rates may be valued
primarily using dealer supplied valuations or a portfolio pricing service
authorized by the Board of Trustees.
Reported net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from sales of
portfolio securities, sales and maturities of short-term securities, sales of
foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized between the trade and
settlement dates on securities transactions, and the difference between the
amounts of dividends, interest, and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the
Fund's books and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or
paid. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses arise from changes in the
values of assets and liabilities, including investments in securities at fiscal
period end, resulting from changes in exchange rates.
The effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on investments is
separately identified from the fluctuations arising from changes in market
values of securities held and reported with all other foreign currency gains and
losses in the Fund's Statement of Operations.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
JOINT REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS. Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the
Securities and Exchange Commission, the Fund, along with other affiliated funds
advised by the Manager, may transfer uninvested cash balances into joint trading
accounts on a daily basis. These balances are invested in one or more repurchase
agreements. Securities pledged as collateral for repurchase agreements are held
by a custodian bank until the agreements mature. Each agreement requires that
the market value of the collateral be sufficient to cover payments of interest
and principal. In the event of default by the other party to the agreement,
retention of the collateral may be subject to legal proceedings.

1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Continued
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.
The tax components of capital shown in the table below 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. As of December 31, 2004, the Fund had $478,895 of post-October losses
available to offset future realized capital gains, if any. Such losses, if
unutilized, will expire in 2013.
3. The Fund had $1,979,188 of post-October foreign currency losses which were
deferred.
4. The Fund had $1,918 of post-October passive foreign investment company losses
which were deferred.
5. The Fund had $5,380 of straddle losses which were deferred.
6. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004, the Fund utilized $1,200,449
of capital loss carryforward to offset capital gains realized in that fiscal
year.
7. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003, the Fund utilized $666,406 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. Accordingly, the
following amounts have been reclassified for December 31, 2004. Net assets of
the Fund were unaffected by the reclassifications.

TRUSTEES' COMPENSATION. The Board of Trustees has adopted a deferred
compensation 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 to the Plan.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS. Dividends and distributions to
shareholders, which are determined in accordance with income tax regulations,
are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gain distributions, if
any, are declared and paid annually.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
INVESTMENT INCOME. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or upon
ex-dividend notification in the case of certain foreign dividends where the
ex-dividend date may have passed. Non-cash dividends included in dividend
income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities
received. Interest income, which includes accretion of discount and amortization
of premium, is accrued as earned.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
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 overdrafts at a rate equal to the Federal
Funds Rate plus 0.50%. 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.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
OTHER. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting
period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

than U.S. government obligations and short-term obligations, for the year ended
December 31, 2004, were $461,469,057 and $348,803,252, respectively. There were
purchases of $188,816,133 and sales of $149,557,330 of U.S. government and
government agency obligations for the year ended December 31, 2004. In addition,
there were purchases of $959,649,113 and sales of $973,488,511 of To Be
Announced (TBA) mortgage-related securities for the year ended December 31,
2004.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
MANAGEMENT FEES. Management fees paid to the Manager were in accordance with the
investment advisory agreement with the Trust which provides for a fee at an
annual rate of 0.75% of the first $200 million of average annual net assets,
0.72% of the next $200 million, 0.69% of the next $200 million, 0.66% of the
next $200 million, 0.60% on the next $200 million and 0.50% of average annual
net assets over $1 billion.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ADMINISTRATION SERVICES. The Fund pays the Manager a fee of $1,500 per year for
preparing and filing the Fund's tax returns.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
TRANSFER AGENT FEES. OppenheimerFunds Services (OFS), a division of the Manager,
acts as the transfer and shareholder servicing agent for the Fund. The Fund pays
OFS a per account fee. For the year ended December 31, 2004, the Fund paid
$20,075 to OFS for services to the Fund.
Additionally, funds offered in variable annuity separate accounts are
subject to minimum fees of $10,000 per class for class level assets of $10
million or more. Each class is subject to the minimum fee in the event that the
per account fee does not equal or exceed the applicable minimum fee.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DISTRIBUTION AND SERVICE PLAN FOR SERVICE SHARES. The Fund has adopted a
Distribution and Service Plan for Service shares to pay OppenheimerFunds
Distributor, Inc. (the Distributor), for distribution related services and
personal service and account maintenance for the Fund's Service shares. Under
the Plan, payments are made quarterly at an annual rate of up to 0.25% of the
average annual net assets of Service shares of the Fund. The Distributor
currently uses all of those fees to compensate sponsor(s) of the insurance
product that offers Fund shares, for providing personal service and maintenance
of accounts of their variable contract owners that hold Service shares. The
impact of the service plan is to increase operating expenses of the Service
shares, which results in lower performance compared to the Fund's shares that
are not subject to a service fee. Fees incurred by the Fund under the Plan are
detailed in the Statement of Operations.
40 | OPPENHEIMER STRATEGIC BOND FUND/VA
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PAYMENTS AND WAIVERS OF EXPENSES. OFS has voluntarily agreed to limit transfer
and shareholder servicing agent fees for all classes to 0.35% of average annual
net assets per class. This undertaking may be amended or withdrawn at any time.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
5. FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS
A foreign currency contract is a commitment to purchase or sell a foreign
currency at a future date, at a negotiated rate. The Fund may enter into foreign
currency contracts to settle specific purchases or sales of securities
denominated in a foreign currency and for protection from adverse exchange rate
fluctuation. Risks to the Fund include the potential inability of the
counterparty to meet the terms of the contract.
The net U.S. dollar value of foreign currency underlying all contractual
commitments held by the Fund and the resulting unrealized appreciation or
depreciation are determined using prevailing foreign currency exchange rates.
Unrealized appreciation and depreciation on foreign currency contracts are
reported in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as a receivable or payable
and in the Statement of Operations with the change in unrealized appreciation or
depreciation.
The Fund may realize a gain or loss upon the closing or settlement of the
foreign transaction. Contracts closed or settled with the same broker are
recorded as net realized gains or losses. Such realized gains and losses are
reported with all other foreign currency gains and losses in the Statement of
Operations.
As of December 31, 2004, the Fund had outstanding foreign currency contracts as
follows:

6. FUTURES CONTRACTS
A futures contract is a commitment to buy or sell a specific amount of a
commodity or financial instrument at a negotiated price on a stipulated future
date. Futures contracts are traded on a commodity exchange. The Fund may buy and
sell futures contracts that relate to broadly based securities indices
(financial futures) or debt securities (interest rate futures) in order to gain
exposure to or protection from changes in market value of stocks and bonds or
interest rates. The Fund may also buy or write put or call options on these
futures contracts.
The Fund generally sells futures contracts as a hedge against increases in
interest rates and decreases in market value of portfolio securities. The Fund
may also purchase futures contracts to gain exposure to market changes as it may
be more efficient or cost effective than actually buying securities.
Upon entering into a futures contract, the Fund is required to deposit
either cash or securities (initial margin) in an amount equal to a certain
percentage of the contract value. Subsequent payments (variation margin) are
made or received by the Fund each day. The variation margin payments are equal
to the daily changes in the contract value and are recorded as unrealized gains
and losses. The Fund recognizes a realized gain or loss when the contract is
closed or has expired.
Cash held by the broker to cover initial margin requirements on open
futures contracts is noted in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
Securities held in collateralized accounts to cover initial margin requirements
on open futures contracts are noted in the Statement of Investments. The
Statement of Assets and Liabilities reflects a receivable and/or payable for the
daily mark to market for variation margin. Realized gains and losses are
reported in the Statement of Operations as the closing and expiration of futures
contracts. The net change in unrealized appreciation and depreciation is
reported in the Statement of Operations.
Risks of entering into futures contracts (and related options) include the
possibility that there may be an illiquid market and that a change in the value
of the contract or option may not correlate with changes in the value of the
underlying securities.
As of December 31, 2004, the Fund had outstanding futures contracts as follows:

7. OPTION ACTIVITY
The Fund may buy and sell put and call options, or write put and covered call
options on portfolio securities in order to produce incremental earnings or
protect against changes in the value of portfolio securities.
The Fund generally purchases put options or writes covered call options to
hedge against adverse movements in the value of portfolio holdings. When an
option is written, the Fund receives a premium and becomes obligated to sell or
purchase the underlying security at a fixed price, upon exercise of the option.
Options are valued daily based upon the last sale price on the principal
exchange on which the option is traded and unrealized appreciation or
depreciation is recorded. The Fund will realize a gain or loss upon the
expiration or closing of the option transaction. When an option is exercised,
the proceeds on sales for a written call option, the purchase cost for a written
put option, or the cost of the security for a purchased put or call option is
adjusted by the amount of premium received or paid.
Securities designated to cover outstanding call options are noted in the
Statement of Investments where applicable. Contracts subject to call, expiration
date, exercise price, premium received and market value are detailed in a note
to the Statement of Investments. Options written are reported as a liability in
the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Realized gains and losses are reported
in the Statement of Operations.
The risk in writing a call option is that the Fund gives up the
opportunity for profit if the market price of the security increases and the
option is exercised. The risk in writing a put option is that the Fund may incur
a loss if the market price of the security decreases and the option is
exercised. The risk in buying an option is that the Fund pays a premium whether
or not the option is exercised. The Fund also has the additional risk of not
being able to enter into a closing transaction if a liquid secondary market does
not exist.
Written option activity for the year ended December 31, 2004 was as follows:

8. CREDIT SWAP CONTRACTS
The Fund may enter into a credit swap transaction to maintain a total return on
a particular investment or portion of its portfolio, or for other
non-speculative purposes. Because the principal amount is not exchanged, it
represents neither an asset nor a liability to either counterparty, and is
referred to as a notional principal amount. The Fund records an increase or
decrease to unrealized gain (loss), in the amount due to or owed by the Fund at
termination or settlement. Credit swaps are subject to credit risks (if the
counterparty fails to meet its obligations). The Fund pays an annual interest
fee on the notional amount in exchange for the counterparty paying in a
potential credit event.

9. INTEREST RATE SWAP CONTRACTS
The Fund may enter into an interest rate swap transaction to maintain a total
return or yield spread on a particular investment, or portion of its portfolio,
or for other non-speculative purposes. Interest rate swaps involve the exchange
of commitments to pay or receive interest, e.g., an exchange of floating rate
payments for fixed rate payments. The coupon payments are based on an agreed
upon principal amount and a specified index. Because the principal amount is not
exchanged, it represents neither an asset nor a liability to either
counterparty, and is referred to as notional. The Fund records an increase or
decrease to unrealized gain (loss), in the amount due to or owed by the Fund at
termination or settlement.
Interest rate swaps are subject to credit risk (if the counterparty fails
to meet its obligations) and interest rate risk. The Fund could be obligated to
pay more under its swap agreements than it receives under them, as a result of
interest rate changes.

10. SWAPTION TRANSACTIONS
The Fund may enter into a swaption transaction, whereby a contract that grants
the holder, in return for payment of the purchase price (the "premium") of the
option, the right, but not the obligation, to enter into an interest rate swap
at a preset rate within a specified period of time, with the writer of the
contract. The writer receives premiums and bears the risk of unfavorable changes
in the preset rate on the underlying interest rate swap. Swaption contracts
written by the Fund do not give rise to counterparty credit risk as they
obligate the Fund, not its counterparty, to perform. Swaptions written are
reported as a liability in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

11. ILLIQUID OR RESTRICTED SECURITIES AND CURRENCY
As of December 31, 2004, investments in securities included issues that are
illiquid or restricted. Restricted securities are purchased in private placement
transactions, are not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, may have
contractual restrictions on resale, and are valued under methods approved by the
Board of Trustees as reflecting fair value. A security may also be considered
illiquid if it lacks a readily available market or if its valuation has not
changed for a certain period of time. The Fund will not invest more than 15% of
its net assets (determined at the time of purchase and reviewed periodically) in
illiquid or restricted securities. Certain restricted securities, eligible for
resale to qualified institutional investors, are not subject to that limitation.

12. SECURITIES LENDING
The Fund lends portfolio securities from time to time in order to earn
additional income. In return, the Fund receives collateral in the form of US
Treasury obligations or cash, against the loaned securities and maintains
collateral in an amount not less than 100% of the market value of the loaned
securities during the period of the loan. The market value of the loaned
securities is determined at the close of business of the funds and any
additional required collateral is delivered to the Fund on the next business
day. If the borrower defaults on its obligation to return the securities loaned
because of insolvency or other reasons, the Fund could experience delays and
cost in recovering the securities loaned or in gaining access to the collateral.
Cash collateral is invested in cash equivalents. The Fund retains a portion of
the interest earned from the collateral. The Fund also continues to receive
interest or dividends paid on the securities loaned. As of December 31, 2004,
the Fund had on loan securities valued at $44,013,349. Cash of $44,858,831 was
received as collateral for the loans, of which $14,877,998 was invested in
approved instruments.

13. LITIGATION
A consolidated amended complaint has been filed as putative derivative and class
actions against the Manager, OFS and the Distributor (collectively, the
"Oppenheimer defendants"), as well as 51 of the Oppenheimer funds (as "Nominal
Defendants") excluding the Fund, 31 present and former Directors or Trustees and
9 present and former officers of the funds. This complaint, filed in the U.S.
District Court for the Southern District of New York on January 10, 2005,
consolidates into a single action and amends six individual previously-filed
putative derivative and class action complaints. Like those prior complaints,
the complaint alleges that the Manager charged excessive fees for distribution
and other costs, improperly used assets of the funds in the form of directed
brokerage commissions and 12b-1 fees to pay brokers to promote sales of the
funds, and failed to properly disclose the use of assets of the funds to make
those payments in violation of the Investment Company Act of 1940 and the
Investment Advisers Act of 1940. Also, like those prior complaints, the
complaint further alleges that by permitting and/or participating in those
actions, the Directors/Trustees and the Officers breached their fiduciary duties
to shareholders of the funds under the Investment Company Act of 1940 and at
common law. The complaint seeks unspecified compensatory and punitive damages,
rescission of the funds' investment advisory agreements, an accounting of all
fees paid, and an award of attorneys' fees and litigation expenses.
The Oppenheimer defendants believe that the allegations contained in the
Complaints are without merit and that they, the funds named as Nominal
Defendants, and the Directors/Trustees of those funds have meritorious defenses
against the claims asserted. The Oppenheimer defendants intend to defend these
lawsuits vigorously and to contest any claimed liability, and they have retained
legal counsel to defend such suits. The Oppenheimer defendants believe that it
is premature to render any opinion as to the likelihood of an outcome
unfavorable to them and that no estimate can yet be made with any degree of
certainty as to the amount or range of any potential loss.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
TO THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES AND SHAREHOLDERS OF OPPENHEIMER STRATEGIC BOND FUND/VA:
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of
Oppenheimer Strategic Bond Fund/VA, a series of Oppenheimer Variable Account
Funds, including the statement of investments, as of December 31, 2004, and the
related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of
changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and
the financial highlights for the periods presented. 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 consideration of internal control over financial reporting as
a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the
circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the
effectiveness of the Fund's internal control over financial reporting.
Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also 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
December 31, 2004, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers; where
replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures.
Additionally, an audit 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
Oppenheimer Strategic Bond Fund/VA as of December 31, 2004, the results of its
operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of
the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for the
periods presented, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America.

FEDERAL INCOME TAX INFORMATION Unaudited
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In early 2005, if applicable, shareholders of record received information
regarding all dividends and distributions paid to them by the Fund during
calendar year 2004. Regulations of the U.S. Treasury Department require the Fund
to report this information to the Internal Revenue Service.
Dividends of $0.2583 and $0.2536 per share were paid to Non-service and
Service shareholders, respectively, on March 15, 2004, all of which was
designated as ordinary income for federal income tax purposes.
