NOTES
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Total returns include changes in share price and reinvestment of dividends and
capital gains distributions in a hypothetical investment for the periods shown.
Cumulative total returns are not annualized. The Fund's total returns shown do
not reflect the deduction of income taxes on an individual's investment. Taxes
may reduce your actual investment returns on income or gains paid by the Fund or
any gains you may realize if you sell your shares. INVESTORS SHOULD CONSIDER THE
FUND'S INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES, RISKS, AND OTHER CHARGES AND EXPENSES CAREFULLY
BEFORE INVESTING. THE FUND'S PROSPECTUS CONTAINS THIS AND OTHER INFORMATION
ABOUT THE FUND, AND MAY BE OBTAINED BY ASKING YOUR FINANCIAL ADVISOR, CALLING US
AT 1.800.525.7048 OR VISITING OUR WEBSITE AT WWW.OPPENHEIMERFUNDS.COM. READ THE
PROSPECTUS CAREFULLY BEFORE INVESTING.
The Fund's investment strategy and focus can change over time. The mention of
specific fund holdings does not constitute a recommendation by OppenheimerFunds,
Inc.
CLASS A shares of the Fund were first publicly offered on 11/17/97. Unless
otherwise noted, Class A returns include the maximum initial sales charge of
5.75%.
CLASS B shares of the Fund were first publicly offered on 11/17/97. Unless
otherwise noted, Class B returns include the applicable contingent deferred
sales charge of 5% (1-year) and 2% (5-year). Because Class B shares convert to
Class A shares 72 months after purchase, the "since-inception" return for Class
B uses Class A performance for the period after conversion. Class B shares are
subject to a 0.75% annual asset-based sales charge.
CLASS C shares of the Fund were first publicly offered on 11/17/97. Unless
otherwise noted, Class C returns include the contingent deferred sales charge of
1% for the 1-year period. Class C shares are subject to a 0.75% annual
asset-based sales charge.
CLASS N shares of the Fund were first publicly offered on 3/1/01. Class N shares
are offered only through retirement plans. Unless otherwise noted, Class N
returns include the contingent deferred sales charge of 1% for the 1-year
period. Class N shares are subject to an annual 0.25% asset-based sales charge.
An explanation of the calculation of performance is in the Fund's Statement of
Additional Information.

FUND EXPENSES
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FUND EXPENSES. As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1)
transaction costs, which may include sales charges (loads) on purchase payments,
contingent deferred sales charges on redemptions; and redemption fees, if any;
and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and service fees;
and other Fund expenses. The following 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 February 28, 2005.
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 transactional costs, such as front-end
or contingent deferred sales charges (loads), redemption fees, or a $12.00 fee
imposed annually on accounts valued at less than $500.00 (subject to
12 | OPPENHEIMER INTERNATIONAL SMALL COMPANY FUND
exceptions described in the Statement of Additional Information). 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 transactional costs were included, your costs would
have been higher.

Class N Hypothetical 1,000.00 1,016.31 8.58
Hypothetical assumes 5% annual return before expenses.
Expenses are equal to the Fund's annualized expense ratio for that class,
multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 181/365
(to reflect the one-half year period). Those annualized expense ratios based on
the 6-month period ended February 28, 2005 are as follows:
CLASS EXPENSE RATIOS
- --------------------------
Class A 1.31%
- --------------------------
Class B 2.21
- --------------------------
Class C 2.14
- --------------------------
Class N 1.71
The expense ratios reflect voluntary waivers or reimbursements of expenses by
the Fund's Transfer Agent that can be terminated at any time, without advance
notice. The "Financial Highlights" tables in the Fund's financial statements,
included in this report, also show the gross expense ratios, without such
waivers or reimbursements.

1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Oppenheimer International Small Company Fund (the Fund) is registered under the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as an open-end management investment
company. The Fund's investment objective is to seek long-term capital
appreciation. The Fund's investment advisor is OppenheimerFunds, Inc. (the
Manager).
The Fund offers Class A, Class B, Class C and Class N shares. Class A
shares are sold at their offering price, which is normally net asset value plus
a front-end sales charge. Class B, Class C and Class N shares are sold without a
front-end sales charge but may be subject to a contingent deferred sales charge
(CDSC). Class N shares are sold only through retirement plans. Retirement plans
that offer Class N shares may impose charges on those accounts. All classes of
shares have identical rights and voting privileges with respect to the Fund in
general and exclusive voting rights on matters that affect that class alone.
Earnings, net assets and net asset value per share may differ due to each class
having its own expenses, such as transfer and shareholder servicing agent fees
and shareholder communications, directly attributable to that class. Class A, B,
C and N have separate distribution and/or service plans. Class B shares will
automatically convert to Class A shares six years after the date of purchase.
The Fund assesses a 2% fee on the proceeds of fund shares that are redeemed
(either by selling or exchanging to another Oppenheimer fund) within 30 days of
their purchase. The fee, which is retained by the Fund, is accounted for as an
addition to paid-in capital.
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 sixty 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).
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION. The Fund's accounting records are maintained in
U.S. dollars. The values of securities denominated in foreign currencies and
amounts related to the purchase and sale of foreign securities and foreign
investment income 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. 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.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ALLOCATION OF INCOME, EXPENSES, GAINS AND LOSSES. Income, expenses (other than
those attributable to a specific class), gains and losses are allocated on a
daily basis to each class of shares based upon the relative proportion of net
assets represented by such class. Operating expenses directly attributable to a
specific class are charged against the operations of that class.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FEDERAL TAXES. The Fund intends to comply with provisions of the Internal
Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute
substantially all of its investment company taxable income, including any net
realized gain on investments not offset by capital loss carryforwards, if any,
to shareholders, therefore, no federal income or excise tax provision is
required.
28 | OPPENHEIMER INTERNATIONAL SMALL COMPANY FUND
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.
During the year ended August 31, 2004, the Fund utilized $49,704,115 of
capital loss carryforward to offset capital gains realized in that fiscal year.
Certain foreign countries impose a tax on capital gains which is accrued
by the Fund based on unrealized appreciation, if any, on affected securities.
The tax is paid when the gain is realized.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
TRUSTEES' COMPENSATION. The Fund has adopted an unfunded retirement plan for the
Fund's independent trustees. Benefits are based on years of service and fees
paid to each trustee during the years of service. During the six months ended
February 28, 2005, the Fund's projected benefit obligations were increased by
$2,079 and payments of $647 were made to retired trustees, resulting in an
accumulated liability of $12,545 as of February 28, 2005.
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.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

interest of each class. Transactions in shares of beneficial interest were as

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.
32 | OPPENHEIMER INTERNATIONAL SMALL COMPANY FUND
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 February 28, 2005, the Fund had outstanding foreign currency contracts as
follows:
CONTRACT
EXPIRATION AMOUNT VALUATION AS OF UNREALIZED
CONTRACT DESCRIPTION DATE (000S) FEBRUARY 28, 2005 APPRECIATION
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CONTRACT TO PURCHASE
Canadian Dollar (CAD) 3/1/05 65CAD $ 52,967 $ 354
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
6. ILLIQUID SECURITIES
As of February 28, 2005, investments in securities included issues that are
illiquid. A security may 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 10% of its net assets (determined at the time of
purchase and reviewed periodically) in illiquid securities.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
7. 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") including the Fund, 30 present and former Directors or Trustees and
8 present and former officers of the funds. This complaint, initially filed in
the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York on January 10,
2005 and amended on March 4, 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

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
7. LITIGATION Continued
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. 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.

At a meeting of the Board of Trustees of the registrant held on February
18, 2004, the Board adopted (1) a policy that, should the Board determine that a
vacancy exists or is likely to exist on the Board, the Governance Committee of
the Board, which is comprised entirely of independent trustees, shall consider
any candidates for Board membership recommended by the registrant's security
holders and (2) a policy that security holders wishing to submit a nominee for

Committee. Prior to February 18, 2004, the Board did not have a formalized
policy with respect to consideration of security holder nominees or a procedure
by which security holders may make their submissions. In addition to security
holder nominees, the Governance Committee may also consider nominees recommended
by independent Board members or recommended by any other Board members and is
authorized under its Charter, upon Board approval, to retain an executive search
firm to assist in screening potential candidates. Upon Board approval, the
Governance Committee may also obtain legal, financial, or other external counsel
that may be necessary or desirable in the screening process.

registrant's principal executive officer and principal financial
officer found registrant's disclosure controls and procedures to
provide reasonable assurances that information required to be
disclosed by registrant in the reports that it files under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (a) is accumulated and communicated
to registrant's management, including its principal executive
officer and principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions
regarding required disclosure, and (b) is recorded, processed,
summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the
rules and forms adopted by the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission.
(b) There have been no changes in registrant's internal controls over
financial reporting that occurred during the registrant's last
fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely
to materially affect, the registrant's internal control over
financial reporting.
