During the twelve month period, the pre-eminent factors that influenced the market included strong corporate earnings, rising oil prices, rising short-term interest rates and increasing violence in the Middle East. With geopolitical and economic "uncertainty" continuing to be the predominate theme, the markets have generally been stagnant in 2004. Each new period brings with it more issues for the markets to face. Exposure to certain asset classes, such as bonds and value companies in recent months, may help performance during one quarter, but the leaders the next quarter may be completely different. These changes only reinforce the benefits of a well-diversified portfolio with exposure to numerous asset classes that perform differently in varying market conditions. With VALIC Company II, you have a wide range of investment choices, covering many asset classes, to help you meet your objectives. Each investor has his or her own risk tolerance and financial goals. We recommend that you contact your financial representative to make certain that your current portfolio allocation is appropriate for you. The following pages provide you with detailed information about your fund's returns and holdings, as well as financial information. Additionally, you will find data and analysis that provide insight into the market conditions affecting your particular fund's performance. Thank you for your continued confidence in our ability to help you meet your investment goals. Sincerely, /s/ Evelyn M. Curran Evelyn M. Curran, President VALIC Company II 2 VALIC COMPANY II - EXPENSE EXAMPLE (Unaudited) August 31, 2004 Disclosure of Fund Expenses in Shareholder Reports As a shareholder of a Fund in VALIC Company II ("VC II"), you incur ongoing costs, including management fees and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) on investing in the Funds and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at March 1, 2004 and held until August 31, 2004. Shares are currently issued and redeemed only in connection with investments in and payments under variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies ("Variable Contracts'') and qualified retirement plans (the "Plans"). The fees and expenses associated with the Variable Contracts and Plans are not included in these Examples, and had such fees and expenses been included, your costs would have been higher. Please see your Variable Contract prospectus or Plan document for more details on the separate account fees or administration fees. Actual Expenses The second through the fourth columns of the table provides information about your actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in these columns, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the column under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During Period'' to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. The "Expenses Paid During Period'' in column four and "Expense Ratio as of August 31, 2004'' in column eight do not include fees and expenses that may be charged by the Variable Contracts or Plans, in which the Funds are offered. Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes The fifth through the seventh columns of the table 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 Funds and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds. The "Expenses Paid During Period'' in column seven and "Expense Ratio as of August 31, 2004" in column eight do not include fees and expenses that may be charged by the Variable Contracts or Plans, in which the Funds are offered. Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds.

These ratios do not reflect fees and expenses associated with the Variable Contracts or Plans. If such fees and expenses had been included, the expenses would have been higher. Please refer to your variable contract prospectus for details on the expenses that apply to the Variable Contracts or your Plan document for details on administration fees charged by your Plan sponsor. # During the stated period, the investment adviser waived a portion of or all fees and assumed a portion of or all expenses for the Fund. As a result, if these fees and expenses had not been waived or assumed, the "Actual/Hypothetical Ending Account Value" would have been lower and the "Actual/Hypothetical Expenses Paid During the Period" and the "Expense Ratios" would have been higher. @ Through expense offset arrangements resulting from broker commission recapture, a portion of the Fund's expenses has been reduced. Had the expense reductions been taken into account, the Expense Example would have been as follows: Ending Account Value Ending Using a Account Value Expenses Paid Hypothetical Expenses Paid Expense Beginning Using Actual During the Beginning 5% Assumed During the Ratio Account Value Return at Period Ended Account Value Return at Period Ended as of at March 1, August 31, August 31, at March 1, August 31, August 31, August 31, Fund 2004 2004 2004* 2004 2004 2004* 2004* - ---- ------------- ------------- ------------- ------------- ------------- ------------- ---------- Mid Cap Value $1,000.00 $964.04 $5.00 $1,000.00 $1,020.11 $5.14 1.01% 4 AGGRESSIVE GROWTH LIFESTYLE FUND - PORTFOLIO PROFILE August 31, 2004 (Unaudited) Industry Allocation* Large Cap Equity Funds.... 60.05% International Equity Funds 26.02% Mid Cap Equity Funds...... 5.81% Bond Funds................ 5.50% Small Cap Equity Funds.... 2.70% ------ 100.08% ====== * Calculated as a percentage of Net Assets.

These securities may be sold in transactions exempt from registration, normally to qualified institutional buyers. The Fund has no rights to demand registration of these securities. At August 31, 2004, the aggregate value of these securities was $7,966,043 representing 14.87% of net assets. Unless otherwise indicated, these securities are not considered to be illiquid. (1)Fair valued security (see Note 2). (2)Bond in default (3)Security is a "step-up" bond where the coupon rate increases or steps up at a predetermined rate. Rate shown reflects the increased rate. (4)PIK ("Payment-in-Kind") bond. Payments made with additional securities in lieu of cash. (5)Company has filed Chapter 11 bankruptcy. (6)Bond is in default and did not pay principal at maturity. Security is subject to litigation, the outcome of which is still to be determined. (7)See Note 5 for cost of investments on a tax basis. (8)Illiquid security (9)Issuer did not file a registration statement within the stated period as required by the Registration Rights Agreement. Therefore, the issuer is required to pay penalty interest of $0.05 per week per $1,000 principal amount until the securities are registered. The penalty interest increases every 90 days by $0.05 per $1,000 principal amount until it reaches a cap of $0.50 per week per $1,000 principal amount. (10)To the extent permitted by the Statement of Additional Information, the High Yield Bond Fund may invest in restricted securities. The Fund has no right to demand registration of these securities. The restricted securities are valued pursuant to Note 2. Restricted securities held by a Fund may not be sold except in exempt transactions or in a public offering registered under the Securities Act of 1933. The risk of investing in such securities is generally greater than the risk of investing in the securities of widely held, publicly traded companies. Lack of a secondary market and resale restrictions may result in the inability of a Fund to sell a security at a fair price and may substantially delay the sale of the security. In addition, these securities may exhibit greater price volatility than securities for which secondary markets exist.

These securities may be sold in transactions exempt from registration, normally to qualified institutional buyers. The Fund has no rights to demand registration of these securities. At August 31, 2004, the aggregate value of these securities was $5,816,261 representing 7.29% of net assets. Unless otherwise indicated, these securities are not considered to be illiquid. (1)Fair valued security (see Note 2). (2)Bond in default. (3)Security is a "floating rate" bond where the coupon rate fluctuates. The rate steps up or down for each rate downgrade or upgrade. The rate reflected is as of August 31, 2004. (4)Variable rate security -- the rate reflected is as of August 31, 2004; maturity date reflects next reset date. (5)Security is a "step-up" bond where the coupon rate increases or steps up at a predetermined rate. Rate shown reflects the increased rate. (6)PIK ("Payment-in-Kind") bonds. Payments made with additional securities in lieu of cash. (7)Company has filed Chapter 11 bankruptcy. (8)Bond is in default and did not pay principal at maturity. Security is subject to litigation, the outcome of which is still to be determined. (9)See Note 5 for cost of investments on a tax basis. (10)Illiquid security (11)Issuer did not file a registration statement within the stated period as required by the Registration Rights Agreement. Therefore, the issuer is required to pay penalty interest of $0.05 per week per $1,000 principal amount until the securities are registered. The penalty interest increases every 90 days by $0.05 per $1,000 principal amount until it reaches a cap of $0.50 per week per $1,000 principal amount. (12)To the extent permitted by the Statement of Additional Information, the Strategic Bond Fund may invest in restricted securities. The Fund has no right to demand registration of these securities. The restricted securities are valued pursuant to Note 2. Restricted securities held by a Fund may not be sold except in exempt transactions or in a public offering registered under the Securities Act of 1933. The risk of investing in such securities is generally greater than the risk of investing in the securities of widely held, publicly traded companies. Lack of a secondary market and resale restrictions may result in the inability of a Fund to sell a security at a fair price and may substantially delay the sale of the security. In addition, these securities may exhibit greater price volatility than securities for which secondary markets exist. As of August 31, 2004, the Strategic Bond Fund held the following restricted security: Value as a Acquisition Shares/ Acquisition Market % of Name Date Par Cost Value Net Assets ---- ----------- ------- ----------- ------- ---------- Rent-Way, Inc.

On August 26, 1998, VALIC contributed $100,000 to VC II as its initial funding. On September 21, 1998, VALIC Separate Account A, invested an additional $74,900,000, and VC II commenced operations. VC II consists of the following 15 separate investment portfolios or "Funds", each of which is, in effect, a separate mutual fund issuing its own separate class of shares of beneficial interest: Aggressive Growth Lifestyle Fund* Mid Cap Value Fund Capital Appreciation Fund Moderate Growth Lifestyle Fund* Conservative Growth Lifestyle Fund* Money Market II Fund Core Bond Fund Small Cap Growth Fund High Yield Bond Fund Small Cap Value Fund International Growth II Fund Socially Responsible Fund Large Cap Value Fund Strategic Bond Fund Mid Cap Growth Fund - -------- *The Lifestyle Funds represent "Funds of Funds" which invest in either the VALIC Company I ("VC I") or VALIC Company II Mutual Funds. Indemnifications. Under VC II's organizational documents, its officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liability arising out of the performance of their duties to VC II. In addition, in the normal course of business VC II enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties which provide general indemnifications. VC II's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against VC II that have not yet occurred. However, VC II expects the risk of loss to be remote. Note 2 -- Significant Accounting Policies The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from these estimates. 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 listed or traded on a national exchange are valued daily at their last reported sale price as of the close of the customary trading session on the exchange where the security is principally traded. Securities listed on the NASDAQ stock market are valued using the NASDAQ Official Closing Price ("NOCP"). Generally, the NOCP is the last sale price unless the reported trade for the security is outside the range of the bid/ask price. In such cases, the NOCP will be normalized to the nearer of the bid or ask price. For listed securities having no sales reported and for unlisted securities, such securities are valued based upon the last reported bid price. Options traded on national securities exchanges are valued as of the close of the exchange on which they are traded. Futures traded on commodity exchanges are valued as of the close of such exchange. U.S. Treasury securities and other obligations issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government, its agencies or instrumentalities, are valued at representative quoted prices. Such quoted prices generally are obtained from third party pricing services; however, in circumstances where it is deemed appropriate to do so, quotations may be obtained from dealers in government securities. Publicly-traded corporate bonds are valued at prices obtained from third party pricing services. Convertible bonds are valued at prices obtained from one or more of the major dealers in such bonds. Where there is a discrepancy between dealers or when no quotes are readily available, values may be adjusted based on a combination of yields and premium spreads to the underlying common stock. Senior Secured Floating Rate Loans ("Loans") for which an active secondary market exists to a reliable degree, will be valued at the mean of the last available bid and asked prices in the market for such Loans, as provided by a third party pricing service. As of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange, securities traded primarily on securities exchanges outside the United States are valued at the last sale price on such exchanges on the day of valuation, or if there is no sale on the day of valuation, at the last-reported bid price. However, depending on the foreign market, closing prices may be up to 15 hours old when they are used to price the Fund's shares, and the Fund may determine that certain closing prices are unreliable. This determination will be based on review of a number of factors, including developments in foreign markets, the performance of U.S. securities markets, and the performance of instruments trading in U.S. markets that represent foreign securities and baskets of foreign securities. If the Fund determines that closing prices do not reflect the fair value of the securities, the Fund will adjust the previous closing prices in accordance with pricing procedures approved by the Board to reflect what it believes to be the fair value of the securities as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange. A Fund may also fair value securities in other situations, for example, when a particular foreign market is closed but the Fund is open. For foreign equity securities, the Fund uses an outside pricing service to provide it with closing market prices and information used for adjusting those prices. Short-term debt securities for which market quotations are readily available are valued at the last reported bid price. However, any short-term security with a remaining maturity of 60 days or less, and all investments of the Money Market II Fund, are valued by the amortized cost method which approximates fair market value. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available or if a development/event occurs that may significantly impact the value of the securities, then these securities may be fair valued as determined pursuant to procedures adopted in good faith by the Board of Trustees. Securities of the Lifestyle Funds are valued at the net asset value (market value) of the underlying VC I and VC II Funds. B. Futures and Forward Currency Contracts Futures Contracts. A futures contract is an agreement between two parties to buy and sell a financial instrument at a set price on a future date. Upon entering into such a contract the Funds are required to pledge to the broker an amount of cash or U.S. government securities equal to the minimum "initial margin'' requirements of the exchange on which the futures contract is traded. The Fund's activities in futures contracts are used primarily for hedging purposes and from time to time for income enhancement. Futures contracts are conducted through regulated exchanges that do not result in counter-party credit risks. A Fund's participation in the futures markets involves certain risks, including imperfect correlation between 64 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED movements in the price of futures contracts and movements in the price of the securities hedged or used for cover. Pursuant to a contract the Funds agree to receive from or pay to the broker an amount of cash equal to the daily fluctuation in value of the contract. Such receipts or payments are known as "variation margin'' and are recorded by the Funds as unrealized appreciation or depreciation. Futures contracts involve elements of risk in excess of the amount reflected in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. When a contract is closed, the Funds record a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed. Forward Foreign Currency Contracts. Certain Funds may enter into forward foreign currency contracts ("forward contracts'') to attempt to protect securities and related receivables and payables against changes in future foreign exchange rates or to enhance return. A forward contract is an agreement between two parties to buy or sell currency at a set price on a future date. The market value of the contract will fluctuate with changes in currency exchange rates. The contract is marked-to-market daily using the forward rate and the change in market value is recorded by the Fund as unrealized gain or loss. On the settlement date, the Fund records either realized gains or losses when the contract is closed equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed. Risks may arise upon entering into these contracts from the potential inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts and from unanticipated movements in the value of a foreign currency relative to the U.S. dollar. Forward contracts involve elements of risk in excess of the amount reflected in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. VC II bears the risk of an unfavorable change in the foreign exchange rate underlying the forward contract. The Funds will cover outstanding forward contracts by maintaining liquid portfolio securities denominated in, or whose value is tied to, the currency underlying the forward contract or the currency being hedged. To the extent that a Fund is not able to cover its forward foreign currency positions with underlying portfolio securities, the custodian will segregate cash or other liquid assets having a value equal to the aggregate amount of a Fund's commitments under forward contracts entered into with respect to position hedges, settlement hedges and anticipatory hedges. C. Repurchase Agreements The Funds, along with other affiliated registered investment companies, pursuant to exemptive relief granted by the Securities and Exchange Commission, may transfer uninvested cash balances into a single joint account, the daily aggregate balance of which is invested in one or more repurchase agreements collateralized by U.S.Treasury or federal agency obligations. For repurchase agreements and joint repurchase agreements, the Funds' custodian takes possession of the collateral pledged for investments in such repurchase agreements. The underlying collateral is valued daily on a mark to market basis to ensure that the value, at the time the agreement is entered into, is equal to at least 102% of the repurchase price, including accrued interest. In the event of default of the obligation to repurchase, a Fund has the right to liquidate the collateral and apply the proceeds in satisfaction of the obligation. If the seller defaults and the value of the collateral declines or if bankruptcy proceedings are commenced with respect to the seller of the security, realization of the collateral by the Fund may be delayed or limited. At August 31, 2004, Money Market II Fund held 0.14% undivided interest, representing $294,000 in principal amount in a joint repurchase agreement with State Street Bank and Trust Co. which is dated August 31, 2004, bears interest at a rate of 1.49% per annum, has a principal amount of $217,124,000 a repurchase price of $217,132,987 and matures September 1, 2004. The repurchase agreement is collateralized by the following: Interest Maturity Principal Market Type of Collateral Rate Date Amount Value --------------------------------------------------------------- U.S. Treasury Notes 6.75% 05/15/05 $ 19,370,000 $ 20,404,435 U.S. Treasury Notes 5.88% 11/15/05 19,225,000 20,402,531 U.S. Treasury Notes 5.00% 02/15/11 19,000,000 20,401,250 U.S. Treasury Notes 4.63% 05/15/06 16,615,000 17,466,519 U.S. Treasury Bills 1.77% 02/24/05 144,095,000 142,834,169 In addition, at August 31, 2004, Money Market II Fund held 0.40% undivided interest, representing $1,000,000 in principal amount in a joint repurchase agreement with UBS Warburg, LLC which is dated August 31, 2004, bears interest at a rate of 1.54% per annum, has a principal amount of $250,000,000, a repurchase price of $250,010,694 and matures September 1, 2004. The repurchase agreement is collateralized by the following: Interest Maturity Principal Market Type of Collateral Rate Date Amount Value --------------------------------------------------------------- U.S. Treasury Bonds 7.63% 11/15/22 $ 66,661,000 $ 89,575,719 U.S. Treasury Bonds 7.25% 05/15/16 130,000,000 165,425,000 D. Mortgage-Backed Dollar Rolls During the period ended August 31, 2004, the Core Bond Fund entered into dollar rolls using "to be announced" ("TBA") mortgage-backed securities ("TBA Rolls"). The Fund's policy is to record the components of TBA Rolls as purchase/sale transactions. Any difference between the purchase and sale price is recorded as a realized gain or loss on the date the transaction is entered into. The Core Bond Fund had TBA Rolls outstanding at period end, which are included in receivable for investments sold and payable for investments purchased in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Dollar roll transactions involve the risk that the market value of the securities held by the Fund may decline below the price of the securities that the Fund has sold but is obligated to repurchase under the agreement. In the event that the buyer of securities in a dollar roll transaction files bankruptcy or becomes insolvent, the Fund's use of the proceeds from the sale of the securities may be restricted pending a determination by the other party, or its trustee or receiver, whether to enforce the Fund's obligation to repurchase the securities. The return earned by the Fund with the proceeds of the dollar roll transaction may not exceed transaction costs. E. Foreign Currency Translation The books and records of VC II are maintained in U.S. dollars. Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies and commitments under forward foreign currency contracts are translated into U.S. dollars based on the exchange rate of such currencies against U.S. dollars on the date of valuation. VC II does not isolate that portion of the results of operations arising as a result of changes in the foreign exchange rates from the changes in the market prices of securities held at the end of the period. Similarly, VC II does not isolate the effect of changes in foreign exchange rates from the changes in the market prices of portfolio securities sold during the period. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED 65 Realized foreign exchange gains and losses on other assets and liabilities and change in unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses on other assets and liabilities located in the Statement of Operations include realized foreign exchange gains and losses from currency gains or losses between the trade and the settlement dates of securities transactions; the difference between the amounts of interest, dividends and foreign withholding taxes recorded on VC II's books and the U.S. dollar equivalent amounts actually received or paid and changes in the unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses relating to the other assets and liabilities arising as a result of changes in the exchange rate. F. Short Sales All Funds, except for the Money Market II Fund and the three Lifestyle Funds, may engage in "short sales against the box." This technique involves selling either a security that a Fund owns, or a security equivalent in kind and amount to the security sold short. A Fund may enter into a short sale against the box to hedge against anticipated declines in the market price of that security. The High Yield Bond Fund may also engage in "naked" short sales. To complete such transactions, the Fund must borrow the security to make delivery to the buyer. The Fund then is obligated to replace the security borrowed by purchasing it at market price at the time of replacement. The price at such time may be more or less than the price at which the security was sold by the Fund. Until the security is replaced, the Fund is required to pay to the lender any dividends or interest that accrue during the period of the loan. To borrow the security, the Fund also may be required to pay a premium, which would increase the cost of the security sold. The proceeds of the short sale will be retained by the broker, to the extent necessary to meet margin requirements, until the short position is closed out. Until the Fund replaces a borrowed security, the Fund will maintain daily a segregated account, containing cash or liquid securities, at such a level that (i) the amount deposited in the account plus the amount deposited with the broker as collateral will equal the current value of the security sold short and (ii) the amount deposited in the segregated account plus the amount deposited with the broker as collateral will not be less than the market value of the security at the time it was sold short. Liabilities for securities sold short are reported at market value in the financial statements. Such liabilities are subject to off balance sheet risk to the extent of any future increases in market value of the securities sold short. The ultimate liability for securities sold short could exceed the liabilities recorded in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The Fund bears the risk of potential inability of the broker to meet their obligation to perform. G. Securities Transactions, Investment Income, Expenses, Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders Security transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Realized gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost. Dividend income and capital gain distributions received are recorded on the ex-dividend date except for certain dividends from foreign securities, which are recorded as soon as VC II is informed after the ex-dividend date. Interest income is accrued daily except when collection is not expected. For financial statement purposes, VC II amortizes all premiums and accretes all discounts on fixed income securities. Funds which earn foreign income and capital gains may be subject to foreign withholding taxes and capital gains taxes at various rates. Common expenses incurred by VC II are allocated among the Funds based upon relative net assets or other appropriate allocation methods. In all other respects, expenses are charged to each Fund as incurred on a specific identification basis. For the Lifestyle Funds, the expenses included in the accompanying financial statements reflect the expenses of the Lifestyle Funds and do not include any expenses associated with the underlying Funds. Dividends from net investment income, if any, are declared and paid quarterly, except for the Money Market II Fund, which declares daily. Distributions from net realized capital gains, if any, are normally declared and paid annually. The Funds record dividends and distributions to their shareholders on the ex-dividend date. The amount of dividends and distributions from net investment income and net realized gains are determined and presented in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These "book/tax'' differences are either considered temporary or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent in nature, such amounts are reclassified within the capital accounts at fiscal year end based on their federal tax-basis treatment; temporary differences do not require reclassification. Net investment income (loss), net realized gain (loss) and net assets are not affected by these reclassifications. Each Fund intends to qualify as a "regulated investment company" under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code and to distribute all of its taxable net investment income and taxable net realized capital gains, in excess of any available capital loss carryovers. Therefore, no Federal income tax provision is required. Note 3 -- Advisory Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates VALIC, an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of American International Group, Inc. ("AIG"), serves as investment adviser to VC II. Certain officers and trustees of VC II are officers and directors of VALIC or affiliates of VALIC.

For the period ended August 31, 2004, VC II accrued $1,915,927 in shareholder service expenses. On January 23, 2001, the Board of Trustees ratified a Deferred Compensation Plan for its independent trustees who are not officers, directors, or employees of VALIC, or an affiliate of VALIC. The effective date of the plan was January 1, 2001. The first deferred payment was made in March of 2001. Under the deferred compensation plan, trustees may elect to defer all or portion of their compensation. Amounts deferred may be invested in up to six different affiliated mutual funds that are specified in the plan as selected by the trustees. For the period ended August 31, 2004, VC II has deferred $5,724 of trustee compensation. On January 23, 2001, the Board of Trustees approved a retirement plan for its independent trustees who are not officers, directors, or employees of VALIC or an affiliate of VALIC.

For the period ended August 31, 2004, the Mid Cap Value Fund received expense reductions in the amount of $59,541. Note 8 -- Investment Concentration The High Yield Bond Fund's investment in high yield securities, whether rated or unrated, may be considered speculative and subject to greater market fluctuations and risk of loss of income and principal than lower-yielding, higher-rated, fixed-income securities. The risk of loss due to default by the issuer may be significantly greater for the holders of high yield securities, because such securities are generally unsecured and are often subordinated to other creditors of the issuer. The Core Bond Fund, Money Market II Fund and Strategic Bond Fund invest in U.S. Government sponsored securities. No assurance can be given that the U.S. Government will provide support to such U.S. Government sponsored agencies or instrumentalities in the future since it is not required to do so by law. As a result of a Fund's concentration in such investments, it may be subject to risks associated with the U.S. Government. At the end of the period, the Funds had 47.60%, 41.81% and 8.43%, respectively, of their total net assets invested in such securities. Some of the Funds may invest internationally, including in "emerging market'' countries. Emerging markets securities involve risks not typically associated with investing in securities of issuers in more developed markets. These investments are subject to various risk factors including market, credit, exchange rate and sovereign risk. The markets in which these securities trade can be volatile and at times illiquid. These securities may be denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars. While investing internationally may reduce portfolio risk by increasing the diversification of portfolio investments, the value of the investment may be affected by fluctuating currency values, changing local and regional economic, political and social conditions, and greater market volatility.

These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of August 31, 2004, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers or by other appropriate auditing procedures where replies from brokers were not received. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the respective funds constituting VALIC Company II as of August 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 each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. /s/ ERNST & YOUNG LLP October 20, 2004 August 31, 2004 TRUSTEE INFORMATION (Unaudited) 83 Number of Funds in Position Term of Office Fund Complex Name, Birth Date Held With and Length of Overseen by and Address* VALIC Complex Time Served(4) Principal Occupations During Past Five Years Trustee(2) - ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Independent Trustees Dr. Judith L.

INDEXES In the following pages, we have included graphs that compare the Fund's performance with certain market indices. These graphs show the hypothetical growth of a $10,000 investment in each Fund versus the same $10,000 investment in comparable market indices. Descriptions of these market indices are provided below the individual graphs. It is important to note that the VCII Funds are professionally managed mutual funds while the indices are not available for investment and are unmanaged. Please note that the graphs and tables that accompany the following investment comments include all fund expenses, but do not reflect the insurance company expenses associated with the variable annuity contract. All dividends are assumed to be reinvested. No expenses are deducted from the performance of the indices. Investments in stocks and bonds are subject to risk, including stock market and interest rate fluctuations. Investments in non-U.S. stocks are subject to additional risks, including political and social instability, differing securities regulations and accounting standards, and limited public information. Mortgage-backed securities are subject to prepayment, which can result in reinvestment of principal at lower yields. Money market instruments generally offer stability and income, but an investment in these securities, like investments in other portfolios, are not guaranteed by the U.S. government or any other federal government entity. AGGRESSIVE GROWTH LIFESTYLE FUND - COMPARISON: FUND VS. 87 INDEX MANAGEMENT OVERVIEW A discussion with AIG Global Investment Corp. (Prior to January 1, 2002, American General Investment, L.P. served as sub-adviser) For the year ended August 31, 2004, the equity markets and the bond markets both had very impressive years with the Dow Jones Wilshire 5000 Total Market Index returning +11.49%, EAFE returning 22.64% and the Lehman Aggregate returning +6.13%. Over the twelve-month period ending August 31, 2004, the Fund returned +9.66% versus a return of +11.45% for the S&P 500(R) Index, the Fund's benchmark, and 13.71% for the blended index. This underperformance can primarily be attributed to the underlying equity funds trailing the asset class returns of the Dow Jones Wilshire 5000 & EAFE. Two of the larger equity holdings, the VC II International Growth II Fund and the VC II Capital Appreciation Fund, underperformed their respective asset class returns. These two funds represented over 50% of the portfolio as of August 31, 2004. On a positive note, the largest holding, the VC II Large Cap Value Fund, returned +13.33%, gross of fees, outpacing the Dow Jones Wilshire 5000 by +1.84%.

INDEX MANAGEMENT OVERVIEW A discussion with Credit Suisse Asset Management, LLC The Fund had a gain of 1.70% in the twelve months ending August 31, 2004, trailing the Russell 1000(R) Growth Index, which had an increase of 5.36%. The investment environment was favorable in the first half of the period, but conditions deteriorated amid heightened geopolitical concerns, persistently high oil prices and the perception that US interest rates would rise from historical lows. These factors clouded the corporate earnings outlook, causing investors to take profits after a strong equity rally in 2003. Growth stocks underperformed value stocks, mostly due to a sharp selloff in the technology sector, which comprises a larger share of the growth universe. In the end, the broad rise in US equities supported the Fund's absolute performance. The fund and its benchmark tended to lag value-oriented stock portfolios in the period. The Fund's sector allocation is a byproduct of our bottom-up stock selection process. The Fund was underweighted in the technology sector during much of the period, including in the final months when technology stocks struggled. This position was a large sector contributor to the Fund's performance relative to its benchmark, as technology was the poorest performing sector in the Russell 1000(R) Growth Index. The Fund's overweighting in energy was also beneficial, while its underweighting in the financial services sector, which gained 9.5% in the benchmark, hindered its relative performance. Top contributors to the Fund's performance on the stock level included Yahoo and Ebay, representing 2.4% and 2.7% of the Fund, respectively, as of August 31, 2004. We increased our exposure to these "new media" companies during the period in the belief that they might begin to capture more advertising dollars, and the theme was beneficial. Tyco, representing 3.2% of the Fund as of August 31, 2004, an ongoing turnaround story, was another good performer for the Fund. XTO Energy, representing 1.8% of the Fund as of August 31, 2004, a natural gas producer, had a solid return as well. Our overweightings in these four stocks helped performance. Stocks that detracted from performance vs. the Fund's benchmark included Pfizer, a position we eliminated late in the period based on our concerns over its product pipeline. IAC/InterActive, representing 1.6% of the Fund as of August 31, 2004, an interactive commerce company, was another underperformer. Relative performance was hampered by not owning Johnson & Johnson and Qualcomm, which both rallied. Combined, the two stocks accounted for approximately 4.5% of the benchmark as of the end of the period.

INDEX MANAGEMENT OVERVIEW A discussion with AIG Global Investment Corp. (Prior to January 1, 2002, American General Investment, L.P. served as sub-adviser) For the annual period ending August 31, 2004, the Core Bond Fund returned 5.71%. The Fund underperformed its benchmark, the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index, which returned 6.13% for the twelve-month period. Market conditions, as one might expect, have an important influence on the Fund's performance versus its benchmark. The past year has been witness to an excellent environment for high yield bonds; benign inflation, a steep yield curve and an improving fundamental picture have all contributed to strong excess returns. The Fund's yield advantage and overweight in high yield bonds over the longer term benefited returns versus the benchmark. Sector selection was a marginal drag on performance. Among those sectors, industrial and finance companies performed the worst. The Fund's allocation to mortgage backed securities was beneficial to performance. The increasing compression on a spread basis among sectors made it increasingly difficult to successfully add alpha on a consistent basis in this sub-sector of performance. Security selection was a primary driver of performance for the 12 month period. Three names that added to the performance of the Fund were Georgia Pacific, Citigroup and Proctor and Gamble bonds. This performance sub-component continues to be a key source of our returns. An overweight in credit was maintained throughout the period. Positions were increased in the high yield asset class in the first quarter of 2004, as favorable conditions for continued outperformance were ascertained. Credit positions were bolstered in the third quarter due to technical conditions. U.S. Agency investments were reduced in the second quarter due to anticipated event risk surrounding accounting issues at FHLMC and FNMA.

HIGH YIELD BOND FUND - COMPARISON: FUND VS. INDEX 91 MANAGEMENT OVERVIEW A discussion with AIG Global Investment Corp. (Prior to January 1, 2002, American General Investment, L.P. served as sub-adviser) For the year ended August 31, 2004, the High Yield Fund returned 16.27% compared to its benchmark, the Citigroup High Yield Market Index return of 14.34%. The combination of low interest rates, low default rates and a growing economy formed a solid backdrop for the high yield market over the past 12 months. The yield on the 10-year Treasury note ranged from 3.68% to 4.87% during the period, while averaging 4.29%. The economy grew at a low-single digit pace and default rates, as measured by Moody's, have dropped to 3.8% from a peak of over 10%. As a result of these factors, investors have been willing to take more risk, so our strategy of investing in higher risk lower rated credits contributed positively to the Fund. Underweights in automotive and restaurants and an overweight in the electric industry detracted from performance. However an underweight in media (non-cable), lodging, healthcare and environment were positive contributors. Security selection was the primary driver of performance with particularly strong security selection in wireless telecommunications, media cable, pharmaceuticals and transport services. Specific names include Charter Communications, Elan, Atlas Air, IPCS and IWO Holdings which each contributed to the Fund's outperformance of its benchmark.

INDEX MANAGEMENT OVERVIEW A discussion with Putnam Investment Management, LLC For the annual period ended August 31, 2004, the International Growth II Fund returned 15.42% underperforming its benchmark, the MSCI EAFE Index, which returned 22.64%. The Fund's underperformance was largely the result of unfavorable stock selection in the financial and communications services sectors. An underweight allocation to the strongest performing sector (utilities) coupled with an overweight to the weakest performing sector (technology) also detracted from performance results over the past year. The last months of 2003 and the beginning of 2004 continued a challenging period for valuation-oriented investment processes such as ours that favor companies with strong upside potential, especially in terms of future cash flow. The rally among stocks of largely unprofitable, debt-burdened companies was the single most important investment theme of 2003, and the biggest detractor from the Fund's annual performance. While markets are currently experiencing a change in leadership as large- and mega-cap stocks once again outpace the market, relative performance over the full year period was hampered most by last year's rally. Over the past year, stock selection was especially strong in the technology and consumer staples sectors. While the Fund's overweight to the technology sector worked against us during the period as technology stocks lagged the broader market, our investments in companies like Ericsson added positive performance. The financial sector was a primary area of underperformance, as a few key portfolio holdings in Europe underperformed and weighed on results. This was notable in the insurance sector as our investments in Swiss Re and ING Group lagged. Stock selection was also weak in the communications services sector, where two of our primary wireless companies trailed the market. In country terms, stock selection was weakest in Japan, followed by the United Kingdom. Japanese mobile phone market leader NTT DoCoMo was the single greatest detractor from performance. The stock was severely punished despite an attractive valuation, a dominant position in the Japanese mobile phone market, and minimal exposure to overseas markets and currencies. Yet another strong Japanese company, Canon, was our second-biggest Japanese detractor. Canon remains a top holding in the Fund due to its high quality, shareholder friendly management team, market dominance in its digital cameras, printers and copier business lines, and attractive valuation resulting from strong cash flow. Our investment in HSBC (U.K.) earlier in the period was also a top detractor from results. While strengthening international currencies proved beneficial to both index and Fund returns, our positions vis-a-vis the index detracted overall. This was most evident in Europe, where average underweights to Continental Europe and the United Kingdom detracted as the Euro and British Pound appreciated versus the U.S. dollar. Overweights to the Swiss Franc and emerging-market currencies also detracted from results.

LARGE CAP VALUE FUND - COMPARISON: FUND VS. INDEX 93 MANAGEMENT OVERVIEW A discussion with SSgA Funds Management, Inc. The Large Cap Value Fund returned 12.42% for the twelve-month period ended August 31, 2004, compared to the Russell 1000(R) Value Index, which returned 17.52%. During the twelve-month period ended August 31, 2004, low quality stocks that were expensive on a price-to-free cash flow basis tended to outperform quality stocks. Our investment process incorporates perspectives on valuation, quality and sentiment. Specifically, we seek to own high quality stocks with strong cash flow available to sustain future growth, as well as those that are inexpensive on a price-to-earnings basis. Our sector exposures relative to the benchmark are a function of stock selection. Poor stock selection among technology and consumer discretionary names has led to the Fund's underperformance for the past year. Atmel Corp. (-28%) and Avnet Inc. (-35%) were two semiconductor names that detracted from performance. Atmel declined after some analysts forecasted lower chip prices as a result of lighter demand. Also dampening performance were high tech manufacturers Scientific Atlanta (-20%) and Motorola Inc. Scientific Atlanta was overweighted when the stock dropped after failing to meet analysts' 2/nd/ quarter estimates. The Fund also was hurt by not owning Motorola, which gained +72%. Overweights to Blockbuster (-24%) and Cendant Corp. (-12%) led to the Fund's breakdown in the consumer discretionary sector. In the case of Blockbuster, the world's largest video store chain declined after Viacom Inc. announced its intention to sell its 80% stake in Blockbuster. While not sufficient to overcome the Fund's losses, materials and energy stocks added value. Oil companies Amerada Hess Corp., Occidental Petroleum Corp. and Sunoco benefited from increased oil prices. Overweight positions to these companies resulted in positive contributions.

INDEX MANAGEMENT OVERVIEW A discussion with INVESCO Institutional (NA), Inc. The Mid Cap Growth Fund returned 4.21% for the twelve-month period ended August 31, 2004, compared to the Russell MidCap Growth(R) Index, which returned 7.46%. The Fund underperformed its benchmark during the period primarily due to stock selection in the Health Care sector, specifically in the biotechnology industry. Gilead Sciences, Inc., a biopharmaceutical company that discovers, develops and commercializes therapeutics to advance the care of patients suffering from life-threatening diseases worldwide, negatively impacted the Fund. In addition, an overweight position and stock selection in the Information Technology sector contributed to negative performance relative to the benchmark. Stock picks in the software industry, specifically Novell, Inc., a provider of business solutions that work across multiple platforms and are designed to secure and empower the networked world, generated most of the negative performance relative to the benchmark in the Information Technology sector. Underweight positions in the Consumer Staples sector and the Materials sector also contributed to negative performance relative to the benchmark. The most positive impact on performance relative to the benchmark came from the Industrials sector during the period. Within this sector, Fastenal Company, a company engaged in the wholesale distribution of industrial and construction supplies, generated positive performance in the trading companies and distributors industry. Stock selection in the Consumer Discretionary sector and the Energy sector also contributed to relative performance. The largest contributor to absolute and relative performance during the period was Symantec Corp., a provider of software, appliances and services designed to help individuals, small and mid-sized businesses and large enterprises secure and manage their information technology (IT) infrastructure. At the end of the period, the Fund was overweight in the Energy, Financials, Industrials and Telecommunications sectors and underweight in the Consumer Staples, Health Care, and Materials sectors compared to the benchmark.

MID CAP VALUE FUND - COMPARISON: FUND VS. INDEX 95 MANAGEMENT OVERVIEW A discussion with Wellington Management Company, LLP. The Mid Cap Value Fund managed by Wellington Management, LLP started out the fiscal year with strong absolute performance numbers, posting double digit appreciation in the first fiscal quarter alone. During the second half of the fiscal year, the market seemed to lack a strong desire to move in either direction. Overall, the Fund finished with solid gains (+14.86%), but under-performed its benchmark, the Russell 2500(R) Value Index (+19.89%), during the 12-month period ended August 31, 2004. Security selection, which was negative in seven of ten sectors, was the primary driver of the underperformance, relative to the benchmark. The Fund's absolute performance was driven primarily by gains in utilities, materials, energy, and consumer staples. In terms of individual stocks, IMC Global, TXU Corp, XTO Energy, Rinker Group, and Foot Locker were the largest contributors to absolute performance. On a relative basis, stock selection in the financials, industrials, and information technology sectors detracted the most from performance. Bally Total Fitness, Converium Holdings, and Fairchild Semiconductor were the largest individual detractors from absolute returns. The fiscal year began with a sustained economic recovery, but with slowed momentum. The Fund emphasized cyclicals during the year to benefit from improving manufacturing, by overweighting materials, industrials, and energy. The Fund had the most significant underweight position in financials due to our limited exposure to REITs, which didn't have the fundamentals to support the premium at which they were trading. The Mid Cap Value Fund style seeks to add value through bottom-up, fundamentally driven security selection. The approach employs a contrarian approach to stock selection, favoring securities that appear to be temporarily misunderstood or undervalued in the marketplace.

INDEX MANAGEMENT OVERVIEW A discussion with AIG Global Investment Corp. (Prior to January 1, 2002, American General Investment, L.P. served as sub-adviser) For the year ended August 31, 2004, the equity markets and the bond markets both had very impressive years with the Dow Jones Wilshire 5000 Total Market Index returning +11.49%, EAFE returning +22.64% and the Lehman Aggregate returning +6.13%. Over the twelve months ending August 31, 2004, the Moderate Growth Lifestyle Fund returned +8.96% versus +11.45% for the S&P 500(R) Index, the Fund's benchmark, and +11.59% for the blended index. This underperformance can be attributed to the underlying equity funds trailing the asset class return of the Dow Jones Wilshire 5000 & EAFE. Two of the larger equity holdings, the VC II International Growth II Fund and the VC II Capital Appreciation Fund, underperformed their respective asset class returns. These two funds represented 41% of the portfolio as of August 31, 2004. On a positive note, the two largest holdings, the VC II Large Cap Value Fund and the VC II Core Bond Fund, outperformed their asset class benchmarks by +1.84% and + .40%, gross of expenses, respectively.

MONEY MARKET II FUND - COMPARISON: FUND VS. INDEX 97 MANAGEMENT OVERVIEW A discussion with AIG SunAmerica Asset Management Corp. Throughout most of the fiscal year the Federal Open Market Committee ("FOMC") held short-term rates steady at 1.00%. As the economy strengthened, the FOMC removed its deflationary bias and focused on the employment situation, more specifically the lack of job creation. The Labor Department's non-farm payroll survey began to show net job creation in September of 2003, peaking in March of 2004 with the addition of over 350,000 new hires. This acceleration in job growth prompted the FOMC to begin increasing the federal funds rate, albeit at a measured pace. The FOMC raised the federal funds rate by 25 basis points at their June and August meetings, bringing their target rate to 1.50%. Sector selection had little impact on the portfolio. Instead value was added through active management of the portfolio's duration. During the second half of the reporting period, we reduced the Fund's weighted average to maturity in order to take advantage of rising short-term interest rates. 98 SMALL CAP GROWTH FUND - COMPARISON: FUND VS. INDEX MANAGEMENT OVERVIEW A discussion with Franklin Advisers, Inc. In aggregate, the US stock market ended the past year with positive returns, although performance throughout the year was volatile. The first half of the reporting period was characterized by strong equity market gains, driven by a rapidly growing U.S. economy and better than expected profit results. Third quarter 2003 GDP grew 8.2%, and this coupled with improving profits and growing consumer confidence helped lead the markets higher. However, investors grew more cautious early in 2004 when GDP and job statistics came in below expectations. As well, geopolitical tensions, including the war in Iraq, record high oil prices, and fears of rising interest rates weighed heavily on the markets. After broad declines from April through mid-May, markets turned around on positive economic news in June, just to reverse back in July and August amidst earnings disappointments, particularly from technology companies, rising energy prices, and mixed economic data. For the one-year period ended August 31, 2004, the Small Cap Growth Fund returned 5.15% outperforming the Russell 2000(R) Growth Index's return of 3.38%. The Fund's performance relative to the index was positively impacted by the strong stock selection in electronic technology, process industries, energy minerals and transportation sectors. The positive performance was partially offset by our weak relative performance of selected investments in technology services and health technology, including the biotechnology industry. Our philosophy is to invest in small cap stocks that present the best trade-off between growth opportunity, business and financial risk, and valuation. We focus on innovative, rapidly growing companies in a variety of industries. We search for companies with identifiable growth drivers, such as new product development, leverage to a change in the economy, or secular industry growth. We look for companies with solid balance sheets, having the ability to invest in future growth and gain market share, and strong operating leverage, or the ability to increase profit margins as sales grow.

SMALL CAP VALUE FUND - COMPARISON: FUND VS. INDEX 99 MANAGEMENT OVERVIEW A discussion with Banc One Investment Advisors Corp. The Fund and the benchmark benefited from an upward trend in the overall stock market in the year ended August 31, 2004. A recovery in the economy gave a boost to overall corporate earnings, thus fueling a stock market advance that pushed the Fund's benchmark, the Russell 2000(R) Value Index up by 19.49% over the year ended August 31, 2004 versus the Fund's return of 17.37%. Sector selection added value in the past year. Overweights specifically in consumer cyclicals, transportation and energy helped the Fund's performance. The Fund was hurt most notably by an under weighting in the REIT sector. Security selection was a negative for the Fund in the year ended August 31, 2004. More sectors were hurt by security selection than were helped. The top four stocks that helped the Fund in terms of contribution were Ashland, Brush Engineered Materials, Stein Mart, and CyberOptics. On the negative side, the three specific securities that hurt the Fund the most were Advanced Fiber Communications, Health Net, and Lattice Semiconductor.

INDEX MANAGEMENT OVERVIEW A discussion with AIG Global Investment Corp. (Prior to January 1, 2002, American General Investment, L.P. served as sub-adviser) For the year ended August 31, 2004, the Socially Responsible Fund posted a return of 9.70%, while the S&P 500(R) Index had a return of 11.45%. A portion of the underperformance of -1.75% can be attributed to sector weightings, in particular, the Energy and Utility sectors. The underweighting of the energy and utility sectors, stemming from the social mandate, cost the fund approximately -1.00%. Once again, stock selection was a positive as Motorola, Proctor & Gamble and EBay helped offset some of the sector bias. Large cash flows into the Fund is another reason the Fund's performance lagged the benchmark. These large cash flows created larger than expected cash positions, which then created a cash drag.

STRATEGIC BOND FUND - COMPARISON: FUND VS. INDEX 101 MANAGEMENT OVERVIEW A discussion with AIG Global Investment Corp. (Prior to January 1, 2002, American General Investment, L.P. served as sub-adviser) For the annual period ending August 31, 2004, the Strategic Bond Fund returned 10.30%. The Fund outperformed its benchmark, the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index, which returned 6.13% for the twelve-month period. Market conditions, as one might expect, have an important influence on the Fund's performance versus its benchmark. The past year has been witness to an excellent environment for high yield and emerging market debt; benign inflation, a steep yield curve and an improving fundamental picture have all contributed to strong excess returns. Sector selection is a primary driver of returns for the Strategic Bond Fund. Relative overweights in the high yield, emerging markets and non-U.S. dollar asset classes all proved beneficial to outperformance. The positive credit environment of stable to improving fundamentals, good technicals and lower volatility, have all bolstered the performance of these non-traditional asset classes. Non-U.S. dollar performance was realized by the weakness of the U.S. Dollar, which suffered over the past 12 months most notably versus the Euro. During the period, positions in emerging markets were reduced in favor of investment grade bonds to realize gains and protect against increased volatility in the asset class. High yield positions were also reduced just prior to the end of the period as valuations reached attractive sale levels in some issues. As of August 31, 2004, the Fund's assets were allocated in the following percentage ranges: 36% high yield bonds; 24% emerging market debt; 24% investment grade debt; 9% in non-U.S. dollar debt issued by developed countries and 7% in cash.
