A Message from the Chairman of AXA Premier VIP Trust

 

Dear Policyholder,

 

We are pleased to provide this annual report to investors of AXA Premier VIP Trust. The report summarizes investment trends and results for 2004, which concluded with a strong rally in global stock markets and better than expected bond market performance, given a series of rate increases by the Federal Reserve.

 

The U.S. stock market extended the rally that began in 2003 for a second straight year as the S&P 500 Index returned 10.9% for 2004. However, most of the total return was contributed in a strong fourth quarter. For yet another year, value stocks were stronger than growth and small-cap stocks beat large-cap. Among top-performing major U.S. stock market indexes, the Russell 2000 Index of small-cap stocks returned 18.3% for the year, while the Russell 2000 Value Index earned 22.3%.

 

Another major theme in global investment markets was the weakness of the U.S. dollar. Over the past two years, the dollar has declined against the euro from near parity to an all-time low of just 0.74 euro per dollar on December 27, 2004. The fading dollar boosted returns in international equities (when measured in dollars) and the MSCI EAFE benchmark of developed foreign markets returned 20.3% for all of 2004. The MSCI Emerging Markets Index performed even better for the year, up 26.0%.

 

The Federal Reserve raised rates five times from July through December after four years of no rate increases. Bond investors were justifiably anxious about the impact on prices and performance, but bonds survived the year in relatively good shape. The Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index returned 4.3% for the full year, while the Lehman Brothers High Yield U.S. Corporate Index, which measures the performance of below investment grade securities, was up 11.1% for the year.

 

In this report, you can learn about the performance and recent strategies of the Trust’s portfolios. As you evaluate this information, keep in mind the ability to diversify your assets by combining several choices with the help of your financial professional. As always, you should look to your financial professional for personal assistance and answers to any questions you may have about your investment options. In addition, please refer to the prospectus supplement(s) included in this report for important information about the investment options offered under your policy.

 

We appreciate the confidence you have placed in us and wish you great investment success in 2005.

 

Sincerely,

2004 Market Overview

 

DOMESTIC EQUITIES

 

The U.S. equity market erupted in the fourth quarter with stocks finishing 2004 on a high note. Led by Technology, Consumer, and Utility stocks, the benchmark S&P 500 rallied 8.7% in the final three months of the year, accounting for most of the total return for the year. Receding energy prices combined with stable long-term interest rates and strong third quarter profit reports underpinned equities’ advance, despite ongoing short-term interest rate hikes by the Federal Reserve. Steady employment trends, resilient consumer demand, and the definitive outcome of the Presidential election lent additional support.

 

The strong fourth quarter masked an otherwise challenging and sometimes frustrating nine months of see-sawing, during which stocks essentially consolidated the strong gains registered in 2003. After starting 2004 with solid upward momentum, gains eroded steadily beginning in February, as investors began to anticipate rising interest rates following two exceptionally strong quarters of GDP growth. Fueled by a spike in bond yields that pushed the ten year Treasury note to 4.87% from 4.25% at the end of 2003, weakness in equities persisted into the third quarter, by which time oil was soaring towards $50 per barrel and the Federal Reserve began a series of interest rate hikes. Despite mounting headwinds, including considerable election uncertainty and an unexpected slowdown in job creation, consumers continued to spend, businesses continued to invest, and GDP growth remained solid. Both bonds and stocks regained their footing in the third quarter. The yield on the ten year Treasury note fell to 4.00% and the S&P 500 Index managed to close the September quarter 1.27% to the plus side on the year.

 

On the equity side, growth stocks staged a comeback in the year’s final month, but value trounced growth in 2004. The S&P/Barra Value Index returned 15.3%, more than two and one-half times the 5.8% return for the S&P/Barra Growth Index. In terms of size, smaller was clearly better in 2004 across the board. The Russell 2000 Index gained 18.3% for the year versus 11.5% for the large capitalization Russell 1000 Index, while the small-cap S&P 600 doubled the return on the S&P 500 (22.8% versus 10.7%).

 

INTERNATIONAL EQUITIES

 

International equity markets ended 2004 on a high note, posting solid returns for the fourth quarter and the year. Softer oil prices and a definitive result to the U.S. Presidential election helped market sentiment. Exchange rate fluctuations played a major role, as the dollar fell against the euro and other major currencies. The strongest sectors were Utilities and Energy, while the weakest were Information Technology and Health Care. In dollar-terms, two relatively minor countries in the index were the top performers for the year: Austria and Norway. On the other end of the spectrum, Finland and the Netherlands were the bottom performing developed market countries for the year.

 

FIXED INCOME

 

Bonds gained ground in the first quarter of 2004 as concerns about the durability of the U.S. economic recovery pushed low interest rates even lower. Demand for relatively safe assets such as bonds rose amid renewed fears of terrorist attacks after the Madrid bombing. Lifted by the tailwind of falling rates, every fixed income sector was in positive territory for the quarter. Market optimism was revived during the second quarter after a series of robust non-farm payroll growth releases suggested to investors that the economy indeed was on track. Short-term rates increased over 100 basis points during the quarter and fixed income markets sold off, giving back all the gains of the first quarter.

 

The third quarter was essentially a reversal of the previous three months. Economic data releases suggested moderate economic growth, as job numbers, inflation and consumer confidence fell short of analyst expectations, again throwing doubts on the strength of the recovery. Bonds subsequently rallied as the weak employment growth and lower inflation prints prompted a fall in interest rates. The rally of the third quarter continued into the last three months of the year where all major fixed income sectors posted gains, capping a year in which bonds showed unexpected strength. The Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index, a widely used index for the high-grade bond market, returned 4.34 percent for the year, despite a tightening cycle by the Federal Reserve that began in May. The central bank raised the federal funds rate five times during the year for a total of 125 basis points. Investors understood that the Fed was lifting rates from unusually low levels that had been set to ward off deflation.

NOTES ON PERFORMANCE

 

Total Returns

 

Performance of the AXA Premier VIP Trust Portfolios as shown on the following pages compares each Portfolio’s performance to that of a broad-based securities index. Each of the Portfolio’s annualized rates of return is net of investment management fees and expenses of the Portfolio. Rates of return are not representative of the actual return you would receive under your variable life insurance policy or annuity contract. No policyholder or contract holder can invest directly in the AXA Premier VIP Trust Portfolios. Changes in policy values depend not only on the investment performance of the AXA Premier VIP Trust Portfolios, but also on the insurance and administrative charges, applicable sales charges, and the mortality and expense risk charge applicable under a policy. These policy charges effectively reduce the dollar amount of any net gains and increase the dollar amount of any net losses.

 

Each of the AXA Premier VIP Trust Portfolios has a separate investment objective it seeks to achieve by following a separate investment policy. There is no guarantee that these objectives will be attained. The objectives and policies of each Portfolio will affect its return and its risk. Keep in mind that past performance is not an indication of future results.

 

Growth of $10,000 Investment

 

The charts shown on the following pages illustrate the total value of an assumed investment in both Class A and Class B shares of each Portfolio of the AXA Premier VIP Trust. The periods illustrated are from the inception dates shown through December 31, 2004. These results assume reinvestment of dividends and capital gains. The total value shown for each Portfolio reflects management fees and operating expenses of the Portfolios and 12b-1 fees which are applicable only to Class B shares. They have not been adjusted for insurance-related charges and expenses associated with life insurance policies or annuity contracts, which would lower the total values shown. Results should not be considered representative of future gains or losses.

 

The Benchmarks

 

Broad-based securities indices are unmanaged and are not subject to fees and expenses typically associated with actively-managed funds. Investment cannot be made directly in a broad-based securities index. Comparisons with these benchmarks, therefore, are of limited use. They are included because they are widely known and may help you to understand the universe of securities from which each Portfolio is likely to select its holdings.

How the Portfolio Invests

 

This portfolio is designed as a “fund of funds,” meaning that it seeks to invest only in shares of other funds to achieve its principal investment objective. The underlying funds in which the portfolio invests emphasize different asset classes, such as large cap and small cap stocks and high yield and investment grade bonds. All of the underlying funds are actively managed by different teams of portfolio managers with expertise in various investment disciplines such as growth stocks, value stocks, and fixed income securities of all kinds. The underlying funds are selected from a large universe of portfolios that are offered through AXA Equitable’s variable fund series, EQ Advisors Trust and AXA Premier VIP Trust.

 

Portfolio Adviser

 

A team of professionals within AXA’s Funds Management Group, a unit of AXA Equitable Life Insurance Company, determines the target allocations and underlying fund selections for the portfolio. The team is responsible for rebalancing the portfolio as necessary to keep the portfolio’s pre-arranged target allocations. The team also regularly monitors the performance of the underlying funds and the overall investment process and performance for the portfolio.

 

Portfolio Highlights

 

For the year ending December 31, 2004

 

The target allocation for the portfolio is 80% fixed income investments and 20% equity investments. The fixed income portion of the portfolio currently consists of two investment grade bond funds and one high yield fund. The equity portion currently consists of three funds that invest in large-size companies and three funds that invest in small to medium-size companies. The equity funds represent a combination of both value and growth investment styles.

 

During 2004, all of the underlying funds contributed positively to the overall performance of the portfolio. On an absolute basis, the strongest contribution came from holding AXA Premier VIP Core Bond, which accounted for a significant share of the portfolio’s total return. The portfolio’s equity investments also added positively to performance across all market capitalizations and styles.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR EXPENSES:

 

As a shareholder of the Portfolio, you incur two types of costs: (1)transaction costs, including applicable sales charges and redemption fees; and (2)ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution (12b-1) fees (in the case of Class B shares of the Trust), and other Portfolio expenses. These examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Portfolio 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 invested at the beginning of the six-month period ended December 31, 2004 and held for the entire six-month period.

 

Actual Expenses

 

The first line of the table to the right provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, 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 first 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 second line of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Portfolio’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Portfolio’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 Portfolio and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

 

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees, or exchange fees. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

On an absolute basis, the strongest contribution came from holding AXA Premier VIP Core Bond. The portfolio’s investment in AXA Premier VIP High Yield also contributed significantly to performance. The portfolio’s equity investments added positively to performance across all market capitalizations and styles. The largest equity contributors, on an absolute basis, came from two of the portfolio’s large cap growth holdings, EQ/Marsico Focus and AXA Premier VIP Aggressive Equity.

How the Portfolio Invests

 

This portfolio is designed as a “fund of funds,” meaning that it seeks to invest only in shares of other funds to achieve its principal investment objective. The underlying funds in which the portfolio invests emphasize different asset classes, such as large cap and small cap stocks and high yield and investment grade bonds. All of the underlying funds are actively managed by different teams of portfolio managers with expertise in various investment disciplines such as growth stocks, value stocks, and fixed income securities of all kinds. The underlying funds are selected from a large universe of portfolios that are offered through AXA Equitable variable fund series, EQ Advisors Trust and AXA Premier VIP Trust.

 

Portfolio Adviser

 

A team of professionals within AXA’s Funds Management Group, a unit of AXA Equitable Life Insurance Company, determines the target allocations and underlying fund selections for the portfolio. The team is responsible for rebalancing the portfolio as necessary to keep the portfolio’s pre-arranged target allocations. The team also regularly monitors the performance of the underlying funds and the overall investment process and performance for the portfolio.

 

Portfolio Highlights

 

For the year ending December 31, 2004

 

The target allocation for the portfolio is 52.5% equity investments and 47.5% fixed income investments. The equity portion currently consists of four funds that invest in large-size companies and three funds that invest in small- to medium-size companies. The equity funds represent a combination of both value and growth investment styles. The fixed income portion of the portfolio currently consists of two investment grade bond funds and one high yield fund.

 

During 2004, all of the underlying funds contributed positively to the overall performance of the portfolio. On an absolute basis, the strongest contribution came from AXA Premier VIP Small/Mid Cap Value, followed by AXA Premier VIP Aggressive Equity. The portfolio’s fixed income investments also added value in both investment grade and below investment grade sectors. In particular, the strongest contributor to performance came from the portfolio’s investment in AXA Premier VIP Core Bond.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR EXPENSES:

 

As a shareholder of the Portfolio, you incur two types of costs: (1)transaction costs, including applicable sales charges and redemption fees; and (2)ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution (12b-1) fees (in the case of Class B shares of the Trust), and other Portfolio expenses. These examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Portfolio 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 invested at the beginning of the six-month period ended December 31, 2004 and held for the entire six-month period.

 

Actual Expenses

 

The first line of the table to the right provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, 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 first 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 second line of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Portfolio’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Portfolio’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 Portfolio and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

 

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees, or exchange fees. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

Portfolio Highlights

 

For the year ending December 31, 2004

 

What helped performance during the year

 

  Strong stock selection in the Consumer Discretionary, Health Care, Financials and Information Technology sectors added to the portfolio’s result over the year.

 

  In the Consumer Discretionary area, holdings such as eBay and Wynn Resorts were among the list of top performers. In Health Care, UnitedHealth Group contributed positively to results, while an underweight in Pfizer helped performance relative to the benchmark. Countrywide Financial and Sallie Mae were solid performers in the Financials sector. In Information Technology, a relative underweight in Intel helped as the stock declined over the year. Shanda Interactive and Network Appliance were notable performers on an absolute basis.

 

  A relative overweight in the Energy and Telecommunication Service sectors also helped the portfolio’s return in the year.

 

  Another positive for the portfolio was its holding in Sprint, a stock that made solid gains over the year.

 

What hurt performance during the year

 

  Stock selection in the Industrials and Energy sectors hurt the portfolio relative to the benchmark.

 

  A relative overweight in the Information Technology sector, and a relative underweight in the Industrials sector, also negatively impacted the portfolio’s results.

 

  Individual stocks that detracted most from the portfolio on a relative basis included: Nortel Networks, Tiffany & Co., Forest Labs and Agilent Technology. The portfolio’s underweight in Johnson & Johnson, which rose over the year, also hurt performance.

The Portfolio’s Class A shares returned 4.13% for the year ending December 31, 2004. The Portfolio’s benchmark, the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index, returned 4.34% over the same period.

 

Portfolio Highlights

 

For the year ending December 31, 2004

 

What helped performance during the year

 

  The portfolio’s exposure to emerging markets was a positive as fundamentals such as trade surpluses and currency reserves continued to improve.

 

  Non-U.S. positions, primarily short to intermediate German maturities, added value in the midst of slower growth and lower inflation in Europe.

 

  The portfolio’s duration positioning had a positive impact on performance as rates rose in general.

 

  Security selection within the investment grade corporate sector contributed positively to performance.

 

What hurt performance during the year

 

  An emphasis on short to intermediate maturities was negative for performance as rates increased most in this part of the yield curve.

 

  The portfolio’s underweight in the mortgage sector hurt returns as low volatility and strong bank demand supported these assets.

 

  An underweight to corporate bonds contributed negatively to performance as that sector outperformed Treasuries by 151 basis points over the year.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR EXPENSES:

 

As a shareholder of the Portfolio, you incur two types of costs: (1)transaction costs, including applicable sales charges and redemption fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution (12b-1) fees (in the case of Class B shares of the Trust), and other Portfolio expenses. These examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Portfolio 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 invested at the beginning of the six-month period ended December 31, 2004 and held for the entire six-month period.

 

Actual Expenses

 

The first line of the table to the right provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, 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 first 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 second line of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Portfolio’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Portfolio’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 Portfolio and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

 

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees, or exchange fees. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

PERFORMANCE SUMMARY

 

The Portfolio’s Class A shares returned 12.32% for the year ending December 31, 2004. The Portfolio’s benchmark, the Russell 1000 Health Care Index, returned 2.98% over the same period.

 

Portfolio Highlights

 

For the year ending December 31, 2004

 

What helped performance during the year

 

  Strong stock selection in the Pharmaceuticals industry significantly contributed to relative performance over the year. The portfolio’s underweight in Pfizer and Merck, relative to its benchmark, was helpful as these companies performed poorly over the year. Strong performance by Elan Corp. plc and Fujisawa contributed positively to results.

 

  Overall stock selection in Health Care Provider & Services and Health Care Equipment & Supplies was a plus to the portfolio’s performance on a relative basis. Top performers in Health Care Provider & Services included HMS Holdings and Pacificare Health System. One of the top contributors in the Health Care Equipment & Supplies area was Becton Dickinson.

 

  In the Biotechnology area, OSI Pharmaceuticals was among the top contributors to performance.

 

What hurt performance during the year

 

  On the negative side, an underweight in Health Care Provider & Services and Health Care Equipment & Supplies detracted from relative performance over the year. Also an overweight in Biotechnology worked against the portfolio.

 

  An underweight in Johnson & Johnson and an underweight in UnitedHealth Group hurt performance as these stocks advanced over the year. Key detractors also included the portfolio’s holdings in AstraZeneca, Watson Pharmaceuticals and Shionogi.

Portfolio Highlights

 

For the year ending December 31, 2004

 

What helped performance during the year

 

  An overweight to Energy bonds was a boost to performance.

 

  The portfolio’s investments in emerging markets were a positive as fundamentals such as trade surpluses and currency reserves continued to improve.

 

  The portfolio’s exposure to higher quality Gaming and Lodging issues contributed to relative performance.

 

  Security selection within the Cable and Health Care sectors added value over the year.

 

  Performance also benefited from an underweight in the Technology and Retail sectors.

 

What hurt performance during the year

 

  The largest detractor from performance came from some of the portfolio’s holdings in the Wireless, Consumer and Utility sectors.

 

  An underweight in the Chemical sector, which outperformed over the year, also detracted from performance.

 

  An underweight in the Building Products sector hurt performance as low interest rates benefited the sector.

 

  The portfolio’s emphasis on higher quality issues hurt performance as the lowest rated issuers led the sector over the year.

Portfolio Highlights

 

For the year ending December 31, 2004

 

What helped performance during the year

 

  With the exception of the Industrials sector, stock selection was positive across all sectors. In particular, the Portfolio’s Consumer Discretionary holdings, EMI Group and Wynn Resorts, were strong performers over the year.

 

  A relative underweight in the Health Care and Telecommunication Service sectors also benefited the Portfolio over the year.

 

  Top contributors to performance, relative to benchmark, included OTP Bank, Mobile Telesystems and Erste Bank. The Portfolio’s underweight in AstraZeneca also helped on a relative basis, as the stock declined over the year.

 

What hurt performance during the year

 

  Stock selection in the Industrials sector detracted from performance. One of the top detractors in this sector was Ryanair Holdings, which declined over the year.

 

  A relative underweight in the Utilities sector, and a relative overweight in the Information Technology sector, detracted from performance.

 

  Top detractors in the Portfolio, relative to benchmark, included: Nissan Motor, Bayer Moteren Werk and Yamaha. The Portfolio’s underweight in Ericsson (LM), which advanced over the year, was a drag on the Portfolio’s relative performance.

What helped performance during the year

What hurt performance during the year

 

  Stock selection and a relative overweight in the Information Technology sector hurt performance over the year. In particular, the portfolio’s investments in Nokia and Texas Instruments were a negative.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR EXPENSES:

 

As a shareholder of the Portfolio, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including applicable sales charges and redemption fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution (12b-1) fees (in the case of Class B shares of the Trust), and other Portfolio expenses. These examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Portfolio 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 invested at the beginning of the six-month period ended December 31, 2004 and held for the entire six-month period.

 

Actual Expenses

 

The first line of the table to the right provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, 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 first 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 second line of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Portfolio’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Portfolio’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 Portfolio and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

 

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees, or exchange fees. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

PERFORMANCE SUMMARY

 

The Portfolio’s Class A shares returned 6.98% for the year ending December 31, 2004. The Portfolio’s benchmark, the Russell 1000 Growth Index, returned 6.30% over the same period.

 

Portfolio Highlights

 

For the year ending December 31, 2004

 

What helped performance during the year

 

  Strong stock selection and a modest overweight in the Consumer Discretionary sector benefited the portfolio over the year. In particular, holdings in eBay, Starbucks and XM Satellite Radio were among the top contributors to performance.

 

  In Information Technology, top contributors to performance included the portfolio’s holdings in Yahoo, Network Appliance and Marvell Technology.

 

What hurt performance during the year

 

  On the negative side, stock selection in the Financials and Industrials sectors detracted from the portfolio’s results relative to its benchmark.

 

  Another detractor from performance was a relative overweight in the Information Technology sector and a relative underweight in the Industrials and Telecommunication Service sectors.

 

  Individual stocks that hurt performance included Veritas Software, Amazon, Maxim Integrated and Xilinx. A relative underweight in Johnson & Johnson, which made solid gains over the year, detracted from performance.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR EXPENSES:

 

As a shareholder of the Portfolio, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including applicable sales charges and redemption fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution (12b-1) fees (in the case of Class B shares of the Trust), and other Portfolio expenses. These examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Portfolio 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 invested at the beginning of the six-month period ended December 31, 2004 and held for the entire six-month period.

 

Actual Expenses

 

The first line of the table to the right provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, 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 first 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 second line of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Portfolio’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Portfolio’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 Portfolio and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

 

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees, or exchange fees. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

PERFORMANCE SUMMARY

 

The Portfolio’s Class A shares returned 14.71% for the year ending December 31, 2004. The Portfolio’s benchmark, the Russell 1000 Value Index, returned 16.49% over the same period.

 

Portfolio Highlights

 

For the year ending December 31, 2004

 

What helped performance during the year

 

  Stock selection in the Health Care and Consumer Staples sectors positively contributed to performance over the year. In the Health Care sector, holding Aventis was additive to performance, while an underweight in Merck helped performance on a relative basis. Among the portfolio’s Consumer Staples holdings, Archer Daniels Midland was a notable contributor to performance.

 

  Other individual stock contributors included ConocoPhillips, Motorola, Tyco International and BP Plc.

 

What hurt performance during the year

 

  Stock selection in the Financials and the Consumer Discretionary sectors were the major detractors to relative performance over the year.

 

  In Financials, the portfolio’s holdings in Fannie Mae and St. Paul Travelers were a drag on results. Weakness in selected Consumer Discretionary stocks, including Viacom, Clear Channel Communication and Koninklijke Philips also hurt results.

 

  Other holdings that detracted from results, relative to benchmark, included Pfizer and Exxon Mobil.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR EXPENSES:

 

As a shareholder of the Portfolio, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including applicable sales charges and redemption fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution (12b-1) fees (in the case of Class B shares of the Trust), and other Portfolio expenses. These examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Portfolio 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 invested at the beginning of the six-month period ended December 31, 2004 and held for the entire six-month period.

 

Actual Expenses

 

The first line of the table to the right provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, 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 first 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 second line of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Portfolio’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Portfolio’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 Portfolio and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

 

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees, or exchange fees. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

PERFORMANCE SUMMARY

Portfolio Highlights

 

For the year ending December 31, 2004

 

What helped performance during the year

 

  Strong stock selection in the Information Technology sector added value to the portfolio relative to its benchmark over the year. Top contributors in the Information Technology sector included Macromedia, Cognizant Technology, Verisign and Navteq Corp.

 

  Other stocks that boosted the portfolio’s performance, relative to benchmark, included Kinetic Concepts, Nextel Partners, Royal Caribbean Cruise and Tom Brown.

 

What hurt performance during the year

 

  Overall stock selection in the Health Care sector detracted from performance in the year. In particular, performance was hurt by holding Omnicare. Performance also was negatively impacted on a relative basis by an underweight in Sepracor and Imclone.

 

  An underweight in the Financials and Health Care sectors, and a relative overweight in the Information Technology sector, also hurt the portfolio’s results over the year.

 

  Individual stocks that generated disappointing returns over the year included Amkor Technology, Navistar International, Qlogic and Corinthian Colleges.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR EXPENSES:

 

As a shareholder of the Portfolio, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including applicable sales charges and redemption fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution (12b-1) fees (in the case of Class B shares of the Trust), and other Portfolio expenses. These examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Portfolio 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 invested at the beginning of the six-month period ended December 31, 2004 and held for the entire six-month period.

PERFORMANCE SUMMARY

 

The Portfolio’s Class A shares returned 5.25% for the year ending December 31, 2004. The Portfolio’s benchmark, the Russell 1000 Technology Index, returned 1.44% over the same period.

 

Portfolio Highlights

 

For the year ending December 31, 2004

 

What helped performance during the year

 

  Stock selection was particularly strong in the Internet Software & Service, Semiconductor & Semi-equipment, and Communication Equipment industries. In the Internet Software & Service area, holdings in Yahoo and Verisign, which advanced by more than 50% over the year, added to results. In the Semiconductor area, the portfolio benefited by holding an underweight in Intel, which declined over the year. In the Communication Equipment area, a relative underweight in Cisco Systems, and holding Research in Motion, yielded favorable results.

 

  A relative overweight in the Media and IT Services industries also added value over the year.

 

What hurt performance during the year

 

  A relative underweight in Computers & Peripherals, and an overweight in the Internet Software & Services industries, significantly detracted from the portfolio’s performance relative to its benchmark.

 

  Our relative underweight in selected stocks also detracted from the portfolio’s performance relative to its benchmark over the year. These stocks included Dell, Qualcomm and Microsoft. Additionally, the portfolio’s holdings in Veritas Software and BEA Systems also proved disappointing.

The first line of the table to the right provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, 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 first 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 second line of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Portfolio’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Portfolio’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 Portfolio and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

 

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees, or exchange fees. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

December 31, 2004

 

Note 1 Organization and Selected Significant Accounting Policies

 

AXA Premier VIP Trust (the “Trust”) was organized as a Delaware business trust on October 2, 2001 and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company with nine diversified Portfolios and seven non-diversified Portfolios (each a “Portfolio”). The non-diversified Portfolios are: AXA Conservative Allocation Portfolio, AXA Conservative-Plus Allocation Portfolio, AXA Moderate Allocation Portfolio, AXA Moderate-Plus Allocation Portfolio, AXA Aggressive Allocation Portfolio, AXA Premier VIP Health Care Portfolio, and AXA Premier VIP Technology Portfolio. The investment manager to each Portfolio is AXA Equitable Life Insurance Company (formerly The Equitable Life Assurance Society of the United States) (“Equitable” or the “Manager”). The day-to-day portfolio management of each Portfolio, other than the AXA Conservative Allocation Portfolio, AXA Conservative-Plus Allocation Portfolio, AXA Moderate Allocation Portfolio, AXA Moderate-Plus Allocation Portfolio and AXA Aggressive Allocation Portfolio (“AXA Allocation Portfolios”), is provided by one or more investment sub-advisers (each an “Adviser”). On July 31, 2003, Equitable contributed $100,000 in seed capital to each of the AXA Allocation Portfolios except the AXA Moderate Allocation Portfolio.

 

Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Trust. In addition, in the normal course of business, the Trust enters into contracts with their vendors and others that provide for general indemnifications. The Trust’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Trust. However, based on experience, the Trust and management expect that risk of loss to be remote.

 

The AXA Allocation Portfolios are types of mutual funds often described as “fund of funds.” Each AXA Allocation Portfolio pursues its investment objective by investing exclusively in other mutual funds managed by Equitable.

 

All of the Portfolios, except the AXA Allocation Portfolios, employ multiple Advisers. Each of the Advisers independently chooses and maintains a portfolio of securities for the Portfolio and each is responsible for investing a specific allocated portion of the Portfolio’s assets.

 

The Trust has the right to issue two classes of shares, Class A and Class B. The Class B shares are subject to distribution fees imposed under a distribution plan (“Distribution Plan”) adopted pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Under the Trust’s multiple class distribution system, both classes of shares have identical voting, dividend, liquidation and other rights, other than the payment of distribution fees under the Distribution Plan. The Trust’s shares are currently sold only to insurance company separate accounts in connection with variable life insurance contracts and variable annuity certificates and contracts issued by Equitable, an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of AXA, and AXA Life and Annuity Company (“ALAC”), as well as insurance companies that are not affiliated with Equitable or ALAC and to The Investment Plan for Employees, Managers and Agents. The Investment Plan for Employees, Managers and Agents is the primary shareholder of Class A for all of the Portfolios except the AXA Allocation Portfolios, AXA Premier VIP High Yield Portfolio and AXA Premier VIP Aggressive Equity Portfolio.

 

The investment objectives of each Portfolio are as follows:

 

AXA Conservative Allocation Portfolio — Seeks to achieve a high level of current income.

 

AXA Conservative-Plus Allocation Portfolio — Seeks to achieve current income and growth of capital, with a greater emphasis on current income.

 

AXA Moderate Allocation Portfolio — Seeks to achieve long-term capital appreciation and current income.

 

AXA Moderate-Plus Allocation Portfolio — Seeks to achieve long-term capital appreciation and current income, with a greater emphasis on capital appreciation.

The following is a summary of the selected significant accounting policies of the Trust:

 

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Valuation:

 

Stocks listed on national securities exchanges are valued at the last sale price or official closing price on the date of valuation or, if there is no sale or official closing price, at the latest available bid price. Other unlisted stocks are valued at their last sale price or official closing price or, if no reported sale occurs during the day, at a bid price estimated by a broker. Securities listed on the NASDAQ exchange will be valued using the NASDAQ Official Closing Price (“NOCP”). Generally, the NOCP will be 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.

 

144


AXA PREMIER VIP TRUST

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

December 31, 2004

 

Convertible preferred stocks listed on national securities exchanges or included on the NASDAQ stock market are valued as of their last sale price or, if there is no sale, at the latest available bid price. Convertible bonds and unlisted convertible preferred stocks are valued at bid prices obtained from one or more of the major dealers in such securities. Where there is a discrepancy between dealers, values may be adjusted based on recent premium spreads to the underlying common stocks. Convertible bonds may be matrix-priced based upon the conversion value to the underlying common stocks and market premiums.

 

Mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities are valued at prices obtained from a bond pricing service where available, or at a bid price obtained from one or more of the major dealers in such securities. If a quoted price is unavailable, an equivalent yield or yield spread quote will be obtained from a broker and converted to a price.

 

Options, including options on futures that are traded on exchanges, are valued at their last sale price, and if the last sale price is not available then the previous day’s sale price is used. Options not traded on an exchange or actively traded are valued at fair value under the direction of the Board of Trustees (“Trustees”).

 

Long-term corporate bonds may be valued on the basis of prices provided by a pricing service when such prices are believed to reflect the fair market value of such securities. The prices provided by a pricing service take into account many factors, including institutional size, trading in similar groups of securities and any developments related to specific securities; however, when such prices are unavailable, such bonds will be valued using broker quotes.

 

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.

 

Foreign securities, including foreign government securities, not traded directly, or in American Depositary Receipt (ADR) or similar form in the United States, are valued at representative quoted prices from the primary exchange in the currency of the country of origin.

 

Short-term debt securities which mature in 60 days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. Short-term debt securities, which mature in more than 60 days, are valued at representative quoted prices.

 

Futures contracts are valued at their last sale price or, if there is no sale, at the latest available bid price.

 

Forward foreign exchange contracts are valued by interpolating between the forward and spot currency rates as quoted by a pricing service as of a designated hour on the valuation date.

 

Other securities and assets for which market quotations are not readily available or for which valuation can not be provided, are valued at fair value under the direction of the Trustees.

 

Investments in the AXA Allocation Portfolios are valued based on the net asset value per share of each underlying fund, which follow the policies as described above.

 

Pursuant to procedures approved by the Trustees, events or circumstances affecting the values of portfolio securities that occur between the closing of their principal markets and the time the net asset value is determined may be reflected, as by a method approved by the Trustees, in the Trust’s calculation of net asset values for each applicable Portfolio when the Trust’s Manager deems that the particular event or circumstance would materially affect such Portfolio’s net asset value.

 

Securities transactions are recorded on the trade date net of brokerage fees, commissions, and transfer fees. Dividend income and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income (including amortization of premium and discount on long-term securities using the effective yield method) is accrued daily.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

December 31, 2004

 

Realized gains and losses on the sale of investments are computed on the basis of the specific identification method of the investments sold. Unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments and foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities is presented net of deferred taxes on unrealized gains in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

 

Expenses attributable to a single Portfolio or class are charged to that Portfolio or class. Expenses of the Trust not attributable to a single Portfolio or class are charged to each Portfolio or class in proportion to the average net assets of each Portfolio or other appropriate allocation methods.

 

All income earned and expenses incurred by each Portfolio are borne on a pro-rata basis by each outstanding class of shares, based on the proportionate interest in the Portfolio represented by the daily net assets of such class, except for distribution fees which are charged on a class specific basis.

 

Foreign Currency Valuation:

 

The books and records of the Trust are kept in U.S. dollars. Foreign currency amounts are translated into U.S. dollars at current exchange rates at the following dates:

 

  (i) market value of investment securities, other assets and liabilities - at the valuation date.

 

  (ii) purchases and sales of investment securities, income and expenses - at the date of such transactions.

 

The Portfolios do not isolate that portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from the fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss on securities.

 

Net currency gains or losses realized and unrealized as a result of differences between interest or dividends, withholding taxes, forward foreign currency exchange contracts and foreign cash recorded on the Portfolio’s books and the U.S. dollar equivalent amount actually received or paid are presented under foreign currency transactions in the realized and unrealized gains and losses section of the Statements of Operations. Net realized gains (losses) on foreign currency transactions represent net foreign exchange gains (losses) from forward foreign currency contracts, disposition of foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, and the difference between the amount of investment income and foreign withholding taxes recorded on a Portfolio’s books and the U.S. dollar equivalent of amounts actually received or paid.

 

Taxes:

 

The Trust intends to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“Code”) applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all of its net investment income and net realized capital gains to shareholders of each Portfolio. Therefore, no Federal income tax provision is required. Dividends from net investment income are declared and distributed at least annually for all Portfolios. Dividends from net realized short-term and long-term capital gains are declared and distributed at least annually to the shareholders of the Portfolios to which such gains are attributable. All dividends are reinvested in additional full and fractional shares of the related Portfolios. All dividends are distributed on a tax basis and, as such, the amounts may differ from financial statement investment income and realized capital gains. Those differences are primarily due to differing book and tax treatments for organization costs, forward foreign currency transactions, losses due to wash sales transactions, mark-to-market of forward contracts, mark-to-market of passive foreign investment companies and straddle transactions. In addition, short-term capital gains and foreign currency gains are treated as capital gains for accounting (book) purposes but are considered ordinary income for tax purposes. Net capital and net currency losses incurred after October 31 and within the taxable year are deemed to arise on the first business day of the Portfolio’s next taxable year.

Securities Lending:

 

For all Portfolios, the Board of Trustees has approved the lending of portfolio securities, through its custodian bank, JPMorgan Chase Bank (“JPMorgan”), acting as lending agent, to certain approved broker-dealers in exchange for negotiated lenders’ fees. By lending investment securities, a Portfolio attempts to increase its net investment income through the receipt of interest on the cash equivalents held as collateral on the loan. Any gain or loss in the market price of the securities loaned that might occur and any interest earned or dividends declared during the term of the loan would be for the account of the Portfolio. Risks of delay in recovery of the securities or even loss of rights in the collateral may occur should the borrower of the securities fail financially. Risks may also arise to the extent that the value of the securities loaned increases above the value of the collateral received. Any such loan of Portfolio securities will be continuously secured by collateral in cash or high grade debt securities at least equal at all times to the market value of the security loaned. JPMorgan will indemnify each Portfolio from any loss resulting from a borrower’s failure to return a loaned security when due. JPMorgan invests the cash

 

148


AXA PREMIER VIP TRUST

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

December 31, 2004

 

collateral on behalf of the Portfolios and retains a portion of the interest earned. The net amount of interest earned, after the interest rebate, is included in the Statements of Operations as securities lending income. At December 31, 2004, the cash collateral received by each Portfolio for securities loaned was invested by JPMorgan and is summarized in the Portfolio of Investments. Each Portfolio has an individual interest equal to the amount of cash collateral contributed.

 

Repurchase Agreements:

 

Certain Portfolios may enter into repurchase agreements with qualified and Manager approved banks, broker-dealers or other financial institutions as a means of earning a fixed rate of return on their cash reserves for periods as short as overnight. A repurchase agreement is a contract pursuant to which a Portfolio, against receipt of securities of at least equal value including accrued interest, agrees to advance a specified sum to the financial institution which agrees to reacquire the securities at a mutually agreed upon time (usually one day) and price. Each repurchase agreement entered into by a Portfolio will provide that the value of the collateral underlying the repurchase agreement will always be at least equal to the repurchase price, including any accrued interest. A Portfolio’s right to liquidate such securities in the event of a default by the seller could involve certain costs, losses or delays and, to the extent that proceeds from any sale upon a default of the obligation to repurchase are less than the repurchase price, the Portfolio could suffer a loss.

 

Options Written:

 

Certain Portfolios may write (sell) covered options as a hedge to provide protection against adverse movements in the price of securities in the portfolio or to enhance investment performance. Certain Portfolios may purchase and sell exchange traded options on foreign currencies. When a Portfolio writes an option, an amount equal to the premium received by the Portfolio is recorded as a liability and is subsequently adjusted on a daily basis to the current market price of the option written. Premiums received from writing options which expire unexercised are recognized as gains on the expiration date. Premiums received from writing options which are exercised or are canceled in closing purchase transactions are offset against the cost of any securities purchased or added to the proceeds or netted against the amount paid on the transaction to determine the realized gain or loss. In writing options, a Portfolio must assume that the option may be exercised at any time prior to the expiration of its obligation as a writer, and that in such circumstances the net proceeds of the sale or cost of purchase of the underlying securities and currencies pursuant to the call or put option may be substantially below or above the prevailing market price. By writing a covered call option, a Portfolio, in exchange for the premium, foregoes the opportunity for capital appreciation above the exercise price should the market price of the underlying security increase. A Portfolio also has the additional risk of not being able to enter into a closing purchase transaction if a liquid secondary market does not exist and bears the risk of unfavorable changes in the price of the financial instruments underlying the options. The Portfolios, however, are not subject to credit risk on written options as the counterparty has already performed its obligation by paying the premium at the inception of the contract.

 

Short Sales Against the Box:

 

Certain Portfolios may enter into a “short sale” of securities in circumstances in which, at the time the short position is open, the Portfolio owns at least an equal amount of the securities sold short or owns preferred stocks or debt securities, convertible or exchangeable without payment of further consideration, into at least an equal number of securities sold short. This kind of short sale, which is referred to as one “against the box,” may be entered into by the Portfolio to, for example, lock in a sale price for a security the Portfolio does not wish to sell immediately. The Portfolio will designate the segregation, either on its records or with the Trust’s custodian, of the securities sold short or convertible or exchangeable preferred stocks or debt securities sold in connection with short sales against the box. Not more than 10% of a Portfolio’s net assets may be held as collateral for short sales against the box at any one time. 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

 

149


AXA PREMIER VIP TRUST

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

short. The ultimate liability for securities sold short could exceed the liabilities recorded in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The Portfolio bears the risk of potential inability of the broker to meet their obligation to perform.

 

Futures Contracts, Options on Futures Contracts, Forward Commitments and Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts:

 

The futures contracts and options on futures contracts used by the Portfolios are agreements to buy or sell a financial instrument for a set price in the future. Certain Portfolios may buy or sell futures contracts and options on futures contracts for the purpose of protecting their portfolio securities against future changes in interest rates and indices which might adversely affect the value of the Portfolios’ securities or the price of securities that it intends to purchase at a later date. Initial margin deposits are made upon entering into futures contracts and options on futures contracts and can be in cash, certain money market instruments, treasury securities or other liquid, high grade debt securities. During the period the futures contracts and options on futures contracts are open, changes in the market price of the contracts are recognized as unrealized gains or losses by “marking-to-market” at the end of each trading day. Variation margin payments on futures contracts and options on futures contracts are received or made, depending upon whether unrealized gains or losses are incurred. When the contract is closed, the Portfolio records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the proceeds from (or cost of) the closing transactions and the Portfolio’s basis in the contract. Should interest rates or indices move unexpectedly, the Portfolio may not achieve the anticipated benefits of the futures contracts and may incur a loss. The use of futures contracts transactions involves the risk of imperfect correlation in movements in the price of futures contracts, interest rates and the underlying hedged assets. Use of long futures contracts subjects the Portfolios to risk of loss in excess of the amounts shown on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities, up to the notional value of the futures contracts. Use of short futures contracts subjects the Portfolios to unlimited risk of loss. The Portfolios enter into futures contracts only on exchanges or boards of trade. The exchange or board of trade acts as the counterparty to each futures transaction, therefore, the Portfolio’s credit risk is limited to failure of the exchange or board of trade.

 

Certain Portfolios may make contracts to purchase or sell securities for a fixed price at a future date beyond customary settlement time (“forward commitments”) if they designate the segregation, either on their records or with the Trust’s custodian, of cash or other liquid securities in an amount sufficient to meet the purchase price, or if they enter into offsetting contracts for the forward sale of other securities they own. These commitments are reported at market value in the financial statements. Forward commitments may be considered securities in themselves and involve a risk of loss if the value of the security to be purchased declines or if the value of the security to be sold increases prior to the settlement date, which is risk in addition to the risk of decline in value of the Portfolio’s other assets. Where such purchases or sales are made through dealers, a Portfolio relies on the dealer to consummate the sale. The dealer’s failure to do so may result in the loss to a Portfolio of an advantageous yield or price. Market risk exists on these commitments to the same extent as if the securities were owned on a settled basis and gains and losses are recorded and reported in the same manner. However, during the commitment period, these investments earn no interest or dividends.

 

Certain Portfolios may purchase foreign currency on a spot (or cash) basis. In addition, certain Portfolios may enter into contracts to purchase or sell foreign currencies at a future date (“forward contracts”). A forward foreign currency exchange contract is a commitment to purchase or sell a foreign currency at a future date at a negotiated forward rate. Daily fluctuations in the value of such contracts are recognized as unrealized appreciation or depreciation by “marking to market.” The gain or loss arising from the difference between the original contracts and the closing of such contracts is included in realized gains or losses from foreign currency transactions in the Statement of Operations. The Advisers may engage in these forward contracts to protect against uncertainty in the level of future exchange rates in connection with the purchase and sale of Portfolio securities (“transaction hedging”) and to protect the value of specific portfolio positions (“position hedging”). The Portfolios are subject to off-balance sheet risk to the extent of the value of the contracts for purchase of foreign currency and in an unlimited amount for sales of foreign currency.

AXA PREMIER VIP TRUST

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

December 31, 2004

 

Swaps:

 

Certain Portfolios may invest in swap contracts, which are derivatives in the form of a contract or other similar instrument which is an agreement to exchange the return generated by one instrument for the return generated by another instrument. The payment streams are calculated by reference to a specified index and agreed upon notional amount. A Portfolio will usually enter into swaps on a net basis, i.e., the two return streams are netted out in a cash settlement on the payment date or dates specified in the instrument, with the Portfolio receiving or paying, as the case may be, only the net amount of the two returns. A Portfolio’s obligations under a swap agreement will be accrued daily (offset against any amounts owing to the Portfolio) and any accrued but unpaid net amounts owed to a swap counterparty will be covered by designating the segregation, either on its records or with the Trust’s custodian, of cash or other liquid obligations. A Portfolio will not enter into any swap agreement unless the counterparty meets the rating requirements set forth in guidelines established by the Trust’s Board of Trustees. Swap agreements are stated at market value on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Swaps are marked-to-market daily based upon quotations from market makers and the change, if any, is recorded as unrealized appreciation or depreciation in the Statement of Operations. A realized gain or loss is recorded upon payment or receipt of a periodic payment or termination of swap agreements. Notional principal amounts are used to express the extent of involvement in these transactions, but the amount potentially subject to credit risk is much smaller.

 

Dollar Roll Transactions:

 

Certain Portfolios may enter into dollar roll transactions with financial institutions to take advantage of opportunities in the mortgage market. A dollar roll transaction involves a sale by a Portfolio of securities with a simultaneous agreement to repurchase substantially similar securities at an agreed-upon price at a future date. The securities repurchased will bear the same interest rate as those sold, but generally will be collateralized by different pools of mortgages with different prepayment histories. Dollar roll transactions involve the risk that the market value of the securities sold by the Portfolio may decline below the repurchase price of the similar securities. None of the Portfolios had dollar roll transactions outstanding at December 31, 2004.

 

Market and Credit Risk:

 

Written options, futures contracts, forward commitments, forward foreign currency exchange contracts and swaps involve elements of both market and credit risk in excess of the amounts reflected in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. The risk involved in writing an option on a security is that, if the option is exercised, the underlying security is then purchased or sold by the Portfolio at the contract price, which could be disadvantageous relative to the market price. The Portfolio bears the market risk, which arises from any changes in security values. The credit risk for futures contracts and exchange traded options is limited to failure of the exchange or board of trade which acts as the counterparty to the Portfolio’s futures transactions. Forward commitments, forward foreign currency exchange contracts, over-the-counter options and swaps are done directly with the counterparty and not through an exchange and can be terminated only by agreement of both parties to such contracts. With respect to such transactions there is no daily margin settlement and the Portfolio is exposed to the risk of default by the counterparty.

 

Note 2 Management of the Trust

 

The Trust has entered into two separate investment management agreements (the “Management Agreements”) with Equitable. The Management Agreement for the Portfolios (other than the AXA Allocation Portfolios) obligates the Manager to: (i) provide investment management services to the Trust; (ii) select the sub-advisers for each portfolio: (iii) monitor each sub-adviser’s investment programs and results; (iv) review brokerage matters: (v) oversee the Trust’s compliance with various federal and state

orders for the purchase and sale of investments for the Portfolios with brokers or dealers selected by the Manager or the respective Advisers; and (iii) perform certain limited related administrative functions in connection therewith. The Manager pays the expenses of providing investment advisory services to the Portfolios, including the fees of the Advisers of each Portfolio.

 

Note 3 Administrative Fees

 

Pursuant to an administrative agreement, Equitable (“Administrator”) provides the Trust with necessary administrative services. In addition, the Administrator makes available the office space, equipment, personnel and facilities required to provide such administrative services to the Trust. For these administrative services, the Trust pays Equitable a fee at an annual rate of 0.15% of the Trust’s total average net assets plus $35,000 per Portfolio and an additional $35,000 for each portion of the Portfolio for which separate administrative services are provided (e.g., portions of a Portfolio allocated to separate Advisers and/or managed in a discrete style).

 

Pursuant to a sub-administration arrangement with Equitable, J.P. Morgan Investors Services Co. (“Sub-administrator”) provides the Trust with administrative services, including monitoring of portfolio compliance and portfolio accounting services.

 

Note 4 Custody Fees

 

JPMorgan, an affiliate of J.P. Morgan Investors Services Co., serves as custodian of the Trust’s portfolio securities and other assets. Under the terms of the Custody Agreement between the Trust and JPMorgan, JPMorgan maintains cash, securities and other assets of the Portfolios. JPMorgan is also required, upon the order of the Trust, to deliver securities held by JPMorgan, and make payments for securities purchased by the Trust. JPMorgan has also entered into sub-custodian agreements with a number of foreign banks and clearing agencies, pursuant to which portfolio securities purchased outside the U.S. are maintained in the custody of these entities.

 

Note 5 Distribution Plans

 

The Trust has entered into distribution agreements with AXA Advisors, LLC (“AXA Advisors”) and AXA Distributors, LLC (“AXA Distributors”), both indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries of Equitable (collectively, the “Distributors”), pursuant to which the Distributors serve as the principal underwriters of the Class A and Class B shares of the Trust. The Trust has adopted in the manner prescribed under Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act a plan of distribution pertaining to the Class B shares of the Trust (“Distribution Plan”). The Distribution Plan provides that each Distributor will be entitled to receive a maximum distribution fee at the annual rate of 0.50% of the average daily net assets attributable to the Trust’s Class B shares for which it provides service. The distribution agreements, however, limit payments for services provided under the Distribution Plan to an annual rate of 0.25% of the average daily net assets attributable to the Trust’s Class B shares. The Trust’s Class A shares are not subject to such fees.

Note 6 Expense Limitation

 

Pursuant to a contract, Equitable has agreed to make payments or waive its fees to limit the expenses of each Portfolio through April 30, 2005 (“Expense Reimbursement Agreement”). Equitable may be reimbursed the amount of any such payments and waivers in the future provided that the payments and waivers are reimbursed within three years of the payment or waiver being made and the combination of the Portfolio’s expense ratio and such reimbursements do not exceed the Portfolio’s expense ratio cap. If the actual expense ratio is less than the expense cap and Equitable has recouped any eligible previous payments and waivers made, the Portfolio will be charged such lower expenses. The expenses as a percentage of daily average net assets (excluding the 0.25% annual fee under the Trust’s Class B Distribution Plan) for each Portfolio are limited to:

AXA PREMIER VIP TRUST

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

December 31, 2004

 

The AXA Allocation Portfolios invest exclusively in shares of other mutual funds (the “Underlying Portfolios”) managed by Equitable. Therefore, each AXA Allocation Portfolio, in addition to its own expenses such as management fees, bears its pro-rata share of the fees and expenses incurred by the Underlying Portfolios and the investment return of each AXA Allocation Portfolio is reduced by each Underlying Portfolio’s expenses. The range of expenses (as a percentage of average net assets) incurred indirectly in connection with each AXA Allocation Portfolio’s investments in Underlying Portfolios is:

 

Portfolios:


  

Range of Expenses


AXA Conservative Allocation

   0.70% to 0.95%

AXA Conservative-Plus Allocation

   0.75% to 1.00%

AXA Moderate Allocation

   0.80% to 1.05%

AXA Moderate-Plus Allocation

   0.95% to 1.20%

AXA Aggressive Allocation

   0.95% to 1.20%

 

Thus, the net expense ratio of the Class A shares and the Class B shares of each AXA Allocation Portfolio, including the AXA Allocation Portfolio’s direct and indirect expenses, would range from:

 

Portfolios:


   Class A

  Class B

AXA Conservative Allocation

   0.80% to 1.05%   1.05% to 1.30%

AXA Conservative-Plus Allocation

   0.85% to 1.10%   1.10% to 1.35%

AXA Moderate Allocation

   0.90% to 1.15%   1.15% to 1.40%

AXA Moderate-Plus Allocation

   1.05% to 1.30%   1.30% to 1.55%

AXA Aggressive Allocation

   1.05% to 1.30%   1.30% to 1.55%

 

Absent this arrangement, the total expense ratio of the Class A shares and the Class B shares of each AXA Allocation Portfolio would range from:

 

Portfolios:


   Class A

  Class B

AXA Conservative Allocation

   1.21% to 1.46%   1.46% to 1.71%

AXA Conservative-Plus Allocation

   1.15% to 1.40%   1.40% to 1.65%

AXA Moderate Allocation

   1.06% to 1.31%   1.31% to 1.56%

AXA Moderate-Plus Allocation

   1.25% to 1.50%   1.50% to 1.75%

AXA Aggressive Allocation

   1.34% to 1.59%   1.59% to 1.84%

 

This information is based on a weighted-average range of the expense ratios since the average assets of each AXA Allocation Portfolio invested in Underlying Portfolios will fluctuate. The total expense ratios may be higher or lower depending on the allocation of an AXA Allocation Portfolio’s assets among Underlying Portfolios and the actual expenses of the Underlying Portfolios. An investor could realize lower overall expenses by allocating investments directly to the Underlying Portfolios.

 

Note 7 Trustees Deferred Compensation Plan

 

A deferred compensation plan (the “Plan”) for the benefit of the Independent Trustees has been adopted by the Trust. Under the Plan, each Trustee may defer payment of all or part of the fees payable for such Trustee’s services. Each Trustee may defer payment of such fees until their retirement as a Trustee or until the earlier attainment of a specified age. Fees deferred under the Plan, together with accrued earnings thereon, will be disbursed to a participating Trustee in monthly installments over a five to twenty year period elected by such Trustee. At December 31, 2004, the total amount deferred by the Trustees participating in the Plan was $212,209.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

 

To the Shareholders and Board of Trustees of AXA Premier VIP Trust:

 

In our opinion, the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the portfolios of investments, and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the 16 portfolios constituting AXA Premier VIP Trust (the “Trust”) at December 31, 2004, and the results of each of their operations, the changes in each of their net assets, and the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as “financial statements”) are the responsibility of the Trust’s management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at December 31, 2004 by correspondence with the custodian, brokers and transfer agent provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

As of the end of the period covered by this report, the registrant has adopted a “code of ethics,” as defined in Item 2, that applies to the registrant’s principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions. A copy of the registrant’s code of ethics is filed as an exhibit pursuant to Item 10(a)(1).

 

Item 3. Audit Committee Financial Expert.

 

The registrant’s board of trustees has determined that Gerald C. Crotty and Barry Hamerling each serve on its audit committee as an “audit committee financial expert” as defined in Item 3. Messrs. Crotty and Hamerling are each considered to be “independent” for purposes of Item 3(a)(2).

(e)(1)

 

The registrant’s audit committee has adopted policies and procedures relating to pre-approval of services performed by the registrant’s principal accountant for the registrant. Audit, audit-related and tax services provided to the registrant on an annual basis require pre-approval by the entire audit committee. With respect to audit fees, the audit committee also pre-approves an additional amount above the pre-approved amount to allow for unanticipated scope extensions and overruns. Any audit amounts in excess of the pre-approved amounts must be approved by the audit committee or its delegate prior to payment. The audit committee chair also has the authority to approve de minimis non-audit services (i.e., services in which the fee does not exceed $10,000 per engagement) to be provided by the registrant’s principal accountant for the registrant, provided that each such service is brought to the attention of the audit committee prior to the completion of the audit of the registrant’s financial statements.

(g) For fiscal year 2004: $4,538,335

For fiscal year 2003: $2,132,267

 

(h) The registrant’s audit committee has considered that the provision of non-audit services that were rendered to the registrant’s investment adviser, and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the investment adviser that provides ongoing services to the registrant that were not pre-approved pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(ii) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X is compatible with maintaining the principal accountant’s independence.
