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 December 31, 1997 (or from the inception dates shown) through December 31, 2007. 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.

Conservative Allocation Index (time-weighted)

Conservative Allocation Index (time-weighted) is a hypothetical combination of unmanaged indices. The composite index is made up of 80% Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index and 20% S&P 500 Index from the inception of the AXA Conservative Allocation Fund (7/31/03) to 5/31/06, and 80% Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index, 15% S&P 500 Index and 5% Morgan Stanley Capital International EAFE Index, thereafter.

Conservative-Plus Allocation Index (time-weighted)

Conservative-Plus Allocation Index (time-weighted) is a hypothetical combination of unmanaged indices. The composite index is made up of 60% Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index and 40% S&P 500 Index from the inception of the AXA Conservative-Plus Allocation Fund (7/31/03) to 5/31/06, and 60% Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index, 30% S&P 500 Index and 10% Morgan Stanley Capital International EAFE Index, thereafter.

Moderate Allocation Index (time-weighted)

Moderate Allocation Index (time-weighted) is a hypothetical combination of unmanaged indices. The composite index is made up of 50% Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index and 50% S&P 500 Index from the inception of the AXA Moderate Allocation Fund (1/27/86) to 6/30/06, and 50% Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index, 35% S&P 500 Index and 15% Morgan Stanley Capital International EAFE Index, thereafter.

Moderate-Plus Allocation Index (time-weighted)

Moderate-Plus Allocation Index (time-weighted) is a hypothetical combination of unmanaged indices. The composite index is made up of 25% Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index, 60% S&P 500 Index and 15% Morgan Stanley Capital International EAFE from the inception of the AXA Moderate-Plus Allocation Fund (7/31/03) to 8/31/05, and 30% Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index, 50% S&P 500 Index and 20% Morgan Stanley Capital International EAFE Index, thereafter.

Aggressive Allocation Index (time-weighted)

Aggressive Allocation Index (time-weighted) is a hypothetical combination of unmanaged indices. The composite index is made up of 10% Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index, 75% S&P 500 Index and 15% Morgan Stanley Capital International EAFE Index from the inception of the AXA Aggressive Allocation Fund (7/31/03) to 6/30/05, and 10% Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index, 65% S&P 500 Index and 25% Morgan Stanley Capital International EAFE Index, thereafter.

Portfolio Adviser

A team of professionals within the AXA Funds Management Group, a unit of AXA Equitable Life Insurance Company, determines the strategic asset class and underlying fund allocations for the Portfolio. The team is also responsible for the ongoing evaluation and selection of underlying funds and monitoring the overall investment process and performance for the Portfolio.

Portfolio Highlights

 

 

As of December 31, 2007, the Portfolio was invested in 20 underlying EQ Advisors Trust and AXA Premier VIP Funds. These included 11 equity funds and 9 fixed income funds.

 

 

The Portfolio’s fixed income allocation consisted of investment grade bonds (67.9%), international bonds (6.8%), and high yield bonds (5.1%).

 

 

The Portfolio’s equity allocation consisted of large cap growth stocks (4.7%), large cap value stocks (6.2%), international stocks (5.4%) and small and mid cap stocks (3.9%).

 

 

The portfolio benefited from strong international equity performance. The MarketPLUS International Core Portfolio was the best performing of the Portfolio’s underlying holdings.

 

 

Strong performance in the Large Cap Growth asset class added to performance, especially from the EQ/Marsico Focus Portfolio.

 

 

From an asset allocation point of view, the Portfolio also benefited from its international bond exposure in the EQ/Evergreen International Bond Portfolio.

 

 

The EQ/PIMCO Real Return Portfolio, which invests primarily in Treasury Inflation Protection Securities (“TIPS”), also helped performance.

 

 

The EQ/Short Duration Bond Portfolio detracted from performance as portfolios with longer durations performed better during the year.

 

 

Allocation to the Large Cap Value asset class, especially the EQ/Alliance Bernstein Value Portfolio, detracted from performance.

Since this Portfolio invests directly in underlying Portfolios, all risks associated with the eligible underlying Portfolios apply to the Portfolio. Investing in the AXA Allocation Portfolios will involve a higher overall cost than if you were to invest directly in their underlying Portfolios.

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, 2007 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.

Past performance is not indicative of future results.

On August 15, 2003, the EQ/Balanced Portfolio was reorganized into the AXA Moderate Allocation Portfolio. Prior that date, the predecessor fund invested directly in securities, rather than pursuing a “Fund of Funds” investment approach.

PERFORMANCE SUMMARY

The Portfolio’s Class A shares returned 6.56% for the year ended December 31, 2007. The Portfolio’s benchmark, the Moderate Allocation Index (time-weighted), returned 7.22% over the same period.

Portfolio Adviser

A team of professionals within the AXA Funds Management Group, a unit of AXA Equitable Life Insurance Company, determines the strategic asset class and underlying fund allocations for the Portfolio. The team is also responsible for the ongoing evaluation and selection of underlying funds and monitoring the overall investment process and performance for the Portfolio.

Portfolio Highlights

For the year ended December 31, 2007

 

 

As of December 31, 2007, the Portfolio was invested in 25 underlying EQ Advisors Trust and AXA Premier VIP Funds. These included 16 equity funds and 9 fixed income funds.

 

 

The Portfolio’s fixed income allocation consisted of investment grade bonds (41.1%), international bonds (4.6%), and high yield bonds (4.5%).

 

 

The Portfolio’s equity allocation consisted of large cap growth stocks (9.6%), large cap value stocks (11.8%), international stocks (16.7%) and small and mid cap stocks (11.7%).

 

 

The EQ/Van Kampen Emerging Markets Equity Portfolio, in the international asset class, was the best performing of the Portfolio’s underlying holdings.

 

 

Strong performance in the Large Cap Growth asset class added to performance, especially from the EQ/Marsico Focus Portfolio.

 

 

From an asset allocation point of view, the Portfolio also benefited from its international bond exposure in the EQ/Evergreen International Bond Portfolio.

 

 

The EQ/PIMCO Real Return Portfolio, which invests primarily in Treasury Inflation Protection Securities (“TIPS”), also helped performance.

 

 

Allocation to the Large Cap Value asset class, especially the EQ/Alliance Bernstein Value Portfolio, detracted from performance.

 

 

Allocation to small cap value oriented portfolios such as Multimanager Small Cap Value detracted from performance.

 

 

The EQ/Short Duration Bond Portfolio detracted from performance as portfolios with longer durations performed better during the year.

Since this Portfolio invests directly in underlying Portfolios, all risks associated with the eligible underlying Portfolios apply to the Portfolio. Investing in the AXA Allocation Portfolios will involve a higher overall cost than if you were to invest directly in their underlying Portfolios.

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, 2007 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 11.69 % for the year ended December 31, 2007. The Portfolio’s benchmark, the Russell 3000 Growth Index, returned 11.40% over the same period.

The following commentary describes key factors (such as stock selection and sector allocation decisions) which helped or hurt the Portfolio’s performance relative to its benchmark, the Russell 3000 Growth Index.

Portfolio Highlights

For the year ended December 31, 2007

What helped performance during the year

 

 

Strong security selection was the primary driver of outperformance for the period. The strongest contributors were the Consumer Discretionary and Energy sectors, where strong stock picks were amplified by overweight positions.

 

 

Consumer Discretionary holding Amazon.com was the leading individual contributor.

 

 

Energy stock selection benefited from holdings Anadarko Petroleum Corp. and Weatherford International.

 

 

Cepheid in Health Care.

 

 

Health Care holding Cepheid was a leading contributor to performance, as the scientific and technical instruments company experienced strong demand for its products that provide an effective way to test for hospital-acquired MRSA infections and as investors sensed that the company might be a takeover opportunity.

 

 

Nokia Corp. and Navteq Corp. were key contributors in Information Technology.

What hurt performance during the year

 

 

Stock selection in Financials, amplified by an overweight position in the sector, was the leading detractor from performance. From an individual security perspective, the most significant Financials sector detractors included Countrywide Financial, E*TRADE Financial, Citigroup Inc., Lehman Bros Holdings Inc. and Merrill Lynch & Co.

 

 

The largest detractor on a stock-specific basis came from Advanced Micro Devices (AMD), which faced a variety of headwinds during the year including aggressive pricing by its main competitor, Intel, and miss-execution in the launch of its Barcelona chipset.

 

 

Health Care stock selection was a significant detractor, although no individual holding stands out.

 

 

Consumer Discretionary holding Comcast Corp. was also a notable detractor from performance.

PERFORMANCE SUMMARY

Portfolio Highlights

For the year ended December 31, 2007

What helped performance during the year

 

 

The Portfolio benefited from both an underweight and successful security selection within the corporate sector, which lagged Treasuries as subprime anxiety caused credit premiums to widen.

 

 

Additionally, the Portfolio was positioned for a steeper yield curve in the second half of the year, a move that proved advantageous as short-term rates fell more than long-term rates and the yield curve steepened.

 

 

Emphasis on shorter maturities in both the U.S. and U.K. added to performance as these yield curves steepened.

What hurt performance during the year

 

 

Modest holdings of municipal bonds, which lagged taxable bonds amid concerns about liquidity and the credit quality of municipal bond insurers, detracted from performance.

 

 

An overweight to mortgages, which lagged like-duration Treasuries amid rising volatility across global financial markets during the quarter, also hurt performance.

MULTIMANAGER CORE BOND PORTFOLIO

 

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, 2007 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 9.17% for the year ended December 31, 2007. The Portfolio’s benchmark, the Russell 1000 Health Care Index, returned 7.52% over the same period.

The following commentary describes key factors (such as stock selection and sector allocation decisions) which helped or hurt the Portfolio’s performance relative to its benchmark, the Russell 1000 Healthcare Index.

Portfolio Highlights

For the year ended December 31, 2007

What helped performance during the year

 

 

Favorable stock selection in Biotechnology was additive to results. Biotechnology company Amgen was among the top relative contributors in the Portfolio. Amgen’s stock price has been volatile since the second quarter when it was discovered that too much use of its erythropoietin drug, Aransep, has harmful effects. An underweight position in Amgen relative to the benchmark was additive to results. United Therapeutics and Onyx Pharmaceuticals, holdings not in the benchmark, were also key contributors in the Biotechnology sector. Onyx benefited from the potential of increased opportunities with its flagship drug Nexavar®.

 

 

An underweight position relative to the benchmark in Pharmaceutical holding Pfizer was the leading individual contributor to relative performance. Pfizer fell during 2007 following the failed pivotal trial of its most promising pipeline drug.

 

 

An overweight to the Life Sciences Tools & Services sector benefited Portfolio performance.

 

 

Shares of MGI, which was not part of the benchmark, appreciated considerably following a proposed acquisition by Japanese drug maker Eisai, in addition to strong sales results of blood disorder treatment Dacogen.

 

 

The Portfolio’s overweight to Express Script helped performance, as the stock rose due to consistently strong financial results and underlying fundamentals in the PBM (Pharmacy Benefit Management) space.

What hurt performance during the year

 

 

Biotechnology was the worst performing industry in the benchmark, so an overweight to this industry detracted from relative results.

 

 

An underweight relative to the benchmark in Merck & Co. detracted from relative results.

 

 

An underweight in the Health Care Providers & Services sector, a leading sector for the benchmark, was also detrimental.

 

 

Eisai Co. pulled back after a strong run in 2006. The company faced numerous headwinds during the year, including setbacks in the development of their Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s drugs.

 

 

An underweight position in Intuitive Surgical Inc. in the Health Care Equipment & Supplies sector also hurt performance.

Portfolio Highlights

For the year ended December 31, 2007

What helped performance during the year

 

 

An underweight in the Finance sector, which came under significant pressure as prominent banks had to write down large sums of subprime mortgage exposure, added to performance.

 

 

An underweight in building products, which continued to underperform, helped performance.

 

 

Security selection in the Energy sector, where pipelines outperformed the broader sector, was also additive.

What hurt performance during the year

 

 

Exposure to the CCC-rated sector, which lagged the overall high yield market, detracted from performance.

 

 

An underweight in consumer non-cyclical issues was detrimental, as this sector outperformed the high yield market.

 

 

Security selection in Health Care lowered returns in one of the better performing industries as investors sought out defensive strategies.

Portfolio Highlights

For the year ended December 31, 2007

What helped performance during the year

 

 

The most significant positive contributor to performance was stock selection in the Energy sector, particularly Petroleo Brasileiro SA and CNOOC Ltd.

 

 

Information Technology stock selection was also additive, led by particularly Research In Motion Ltd.

 

 

A position in Chinese wireless operator China Mobile Ltd. was a leading individual contributor in the period.

 

 

Maintaining an underweight position in the weak-performing Financials sector helped returns.

 

 

Materials was another area of strength for the Portfolio as Potash Corp. of Saskatchewan and Rio Tinto PLC appreciated sharply.

What hurt performance during the year

 

 

Significant detractors for the year were Financial holdings, including Northern Rock PLC in the U.K., Sumitomo Mitsui and Chuo Mitsui Trust Holdings in Japan and ING Groep in the Netherlands.

 

 

Not holding Spanish company Telefonica SA was a leading detractor from relative performance.

 

 

With respect to sector selection, detractors were a relative underweight position in the Telecomm Service sector and a relative overweight in the Consumer Discretionary sector.

PERFORMANCE SUMMARY

The Portfolio’s Class A shares returned 5.22% for the year ended December 31, 2007. The Portfolio’s benchmark, the S&P 500 Index, returned 5.49% over the same period.

The following commentary describes key factors (such as stock selection and sector allocation decisions) which helped or hurt the Portfolio’s performance relative to its benchmark, the S&P 500 Index.

Portfolio Highlights

For the year ended December 31, 2007

What helped performance during the year

 

 

Materials stock selection was positive, with Southern Copper and Freeport-McMoRan Copper & Gold performing well as new supplies of copper were easily absorbed and as investors concluded that a U.S. economic slowdown would have limited impact on their businesses.

 

 

Information Technology stock selection and an overweight in the sector helped performance. Notable Information Technology contributors included Cypress Semiconductor, Apple Inc., Google Inc. and Research in Motion Ltd.

 

 

An underweight in Financials was a positive contributor from a sector allocation perspective.

 

 

An underweight position to poor performing financial Citigroup contributed to relative returns.

 

 

Energy holding Apache Corp. performed well due to rising international oil production and rising oil prices.

What hurt performance during the year

 

 

An underweight position in the Energy sector was the largest detractor from relative returns.

 

 

Industrial stock selection was also detrimental, led by JetBlue Airways Corp., which suffered from concerns surrounding slower economic growth and higher fuel prices.

 

 

Comcast Corp. was lower due to threats from satellite and telecom competition.

 

 

Rite Aid, which is in the process of integrating a major acquisition and has borrowed significantly in order to improve its store base and lift operating profitability, detracted from performance.

 

 

An underweight position in Exxon Mobil Corp. relative to the benchmark was detrimental.

 

 

Level 3 Communications, despite strong demand for its network services, reported weak results due to poor execution on the integration of several acquired companies.

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, 2007 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.

PERFORMANCE SUMMARY

The Portfolio’s Class A shares returned 11.51% for the year ended December 31, 2007. The Portfolio’s benchmark, the Russell 1000 Growth Index, returned 11.81% over the same period.

The following commentary describes key factors (such as stock selection and sector allocation decisions) which helped or hurt the Portfolio’s performance relative to its benchmark, the Russell 1000 Growth Index.

Portfolio Highlights

For the year ended December 31, 2007

What helped performance during the year

 

 

Amazon.com and Schlumberger were the biggest contributors to outperformance this year.

 

 

Amazon.com, a leading on-line retailer, hit an inflection point in 2007 with their revenue growth rate accelerating in mature categories such as books, music, and video while simultaneously expanding profit margins.

 

 

In Energy, Schlumberger rallied in 2007 on solid earnings reports. The company is a beneficiary of increased capital spending in the oil and gas industry. Its services range from well drilling and management to reservoir imaging.

 

 

Information Technology stock selection and a sector overweight both added to performance. Google Inc., Salesforce.com Inc. and Juniper Networks were top relative contributors in the sector.

 

 

Shares in Agricultural giant Monsanto more than doubled in 2007. The company recently reported quarterly profits that nearly tripled those earned a year earlier, thanks to strong herbicide sales and corn seed sales in the U.S. and Latin America.

What hurt performance during the year

 

 

The two largest detractors from performance during the year were Countrywide Financial and Network Appliance.

 

 

Countrywide has historically been a leader in originating and servicing mortgages in the United States. Rising mortgage default rates and an excess supply of houses for sale have combined to cause a dramatic slowdown in mortgage volumes and a reduction in the value of mortgage related financial products.

 

 

Network Appliance, a leader in network attached storage, has suffered from weaker than expected growth trends in its end markets. While still having a dominant competitive position and product portfolio, industry spending trends have been below expectations.

 

 

Overweight positions relative to the benchmark in Pulte Homes Inc., Genentech Inc., Progressive Corp. and Marvell Technology Group also detracted.

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, 2007 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.

The following commentary describes key factors (such as stock selection and sector allocation decisions) which helped or hurt the Portfolio’s performance relative to its benchmark, the Russell 1000 Value Index.

Portfolio Highlights

For the year ended December 31, 2007

What helped performance during the year

 

 

A large underweight in the Financials sector relative to the benchmark was the leading contributor to performance.

 

 

Information Technology and Consumer Staples stock selection were also key contributors.

 

 

A relative overweight in Energy holding Hess Corp. was the leading individual contributor.

 

 

Textron Inc., Rio Tinto PLC, Occidental Petroleum Corp. and Merck & Co. were other notable contributors.

What hurt performance during the year

 

 

Underweight positions in the Energy and Utilities sectors detracted from relative returns.

 

 

Underweighted positions in integrated oil companies Exxon Mobil and Chevron held back results.

 

 

Holdings of Office Depot Inc., Intercontinental Hotels, home improvement products maker Masco Corp. and department stores operator Macy’s also hurt results.

The following commentary describes key factors (such as stock selection and sector allocation decisions) which helped or hurt the Portfolio’s performance relative to its benchmark, the Russell 2500 Growth Index.

Portfolio Highlights

For the year ended December 31, 2007

What helped performance during the year

 

 

The portfolio benefited from stock selection in the Consumer Discretionary sector. Specialty retailer GameStop Corp. and distributor LKQ Corp. performed particularly well in a challenging environment for Consumer Discretionary companies.

 

 

The portfolio’s Energy holdings also generated outsized gains, especially in the oil & gas industry. In this area, National Oilwell Varco outperformed. An overweight position in the Energy sector also contributed to performance.

 

 

Information Technology stock selection was also additive.

 

 

Precision Castparts, Stericycle Inc. and Aquantive Inc. were other individual contributors.

What hurt performance during the year

 

 

Financial stocks Clayton Holdings Inc. and Ambac Financial Group Inc. and Health Care stock Intuitive Surgical Inc. had the most negative impact on performance.

 

 

A relative underweight in Materials was the leading detractor from a sector perspective.

 

 

Not holding First Solar Inc. was detrimental to performance.

 

 

The portfolio’s Telecommunication Services stocks detracted the most from relative performance. After producing stellar returns for several years, the shares of wireless telecom provider NII Holdings traded lower.

PERFORMANCE SUMMARY

The Portfolio’s Class A shares returned 0.31% for the year ended December 31, 2007. The Portfolio’s benchmark, the Russell 2500 Value Index, returned (7.27)% over the same period.

The following commentary describes key factors (such as stock selection and sector allocation decisions) which helped or hurt the Portfolio’s performance relative to its benchmark, the Russell 2500 Value Index.

Portfolio Highlights

For the year ended December 31, 2007

What helped performance during the year

 

 

For the year ending December 31, 2007, stock selection was the primary driver of performance. Stock selection was particularly strong in the Industrials, Materials and Energy sectors. Sector allocation also contributed to returns as a large underweight to the weaker Financials sector and overweights to the Industrials and Health Care sectors helped performance.

 

 

McDermott International Inc., SPX Corp., AGCO Corp., Alliant Techsystems Inc., and Goodrich Corp. all contributed in the Industrials sector.

 

 

Owens Illinois Inc., the main contributor in the Materials sector, increased on the back of continued progress made towards improving pricing and reducing costs.

 

 

Energy security selection was driven by holdings Consol Energy and Murphy Oil Corp.

What hurt performance during the year

 

 

The leading detractor was E*Trade Financial, which began to suffer in the third quarter as a result of a difficult credit market that increased the company’s credit costs.

 

 

An underweight to the Utilities sector detracted from relative results.

 

 

Also dampening performance was security selection in Consumer Discretionary, led by declines in holdings specialty retailer Coldwater Creek and consumer electronics company Circuit City.

 

 

Security selection in Information Technology hampered performance as semiconductor issues Micron Technology and LSI Corp. and integrated self-service delivery and security systems and services company Diebold Inc. declined.

 

 

Not holding Reliant Energy Inc. and KBR Inc. hurt relative 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, 2007 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 ended December 31, 2007

What helped performance during the year

 

 

The Consumer Discretionary space was a good source of returns for the Portfolio. Despite difficult conditions for many companies that rely on consumer spending, several holdings continued to post strong results. Bally Technologies, a gaming equipment and services provider, was up for the year as the company continued to execute well and post robust earnings increases.

 

 

The Portfolio had a large underweight in the Financials sector which benefited performance.

 

 

During the year there were many opportunities in technology, particularly as international sales became a major source of revenue growth. Holdings in Plexus Corp. and Secure Computing Corp. benefited from increased spending on technology systems and services to improve industrial or business efficiency.

 

 

An overweight position in Industrials sector was also helpful.

 

 

Materials sector holdings Quanex Corp. and Schnitzer Steel Industries and Health Care holding Pharmanet Development Group Inc. were other notable individual contributors.

What hurt performance during the year

 

 

Stock selection in the Industrials, Financials and Consumer Staples sectors detracted from performance.

 

 

Within the Industrials sector, exposure to residential and commercial construction companies negatively impacted performance in this sector, although no single holding is notable.

 

 

In Financials several holdings, including Bankunited Financial Corp. and Franklin Bank Corp., detracted from performance.

 

 

Not holding CF Industrial Holdings Inc., a strong performer for the benchmark, was the largest individual detractor from relative performance.

 

 

TravelCenters of America, an operator of truck stops which slashed earnings forecasts due to weak freight demand, weak gas margins and acquisition integration issues, detracted from performance.

 

 

Information Technology Komag Inc. was another notable detractor.

PERFORMANCE SUMMARY

The Portfolio’s Class A shares returned 18.53% for the year ended December 31, 2007. The Portfolio’s benchmark, the Russell 1000 Technology Index, returned 16.92% over the same period.

The following commentary describes key factors (such as stock selection and sector allocation decisions) which helped or hurt the Portfolio’s performance relative to its benchmark, the Russell 1000 Technology Index.

Portfolio Highlights

For the year ended December 31, 2007

What helped performance during the year

 

 

Stock selection in Internet Software & Services, specifically companies associated with exciting consumer technology products, helped performance.

 

 

Communications Equipment stock selection was also positive, including holding Research In Motion Ltd. and Nokia Corp. and not holding Motorola Inc.

 

 

Shares of Internet search firm Google benefited from higher-than-expected earnings due to strong growth in its core Internet search advertising business.

 

 

Software holding Nintendo Co. was another key contributor to performance.

 

 

IT Services stock selection was positive, although no individual holding stands out.

 

 

China Mobile Limited was also a profitable investment for the Portfolio. Shares of the world’s largest cell phone carrier nearly doubled in 2007, as the service provider continued to enjoy robust business by adding over five million new customers each month, ending the year with more than 360 million subscribers.

 

 

Electrical Equipment was the leading sector contributor for the period.

What hurt performance during the year

 

 

An overweight position relative to the benchmark in the Internet Software & Services sector and a large underweight in the Computers & Peripherals sector were significant detractors from performance.

 

 

Semiconductor & Semiconductor Equipment stock selection was poor, including holdings MEMC Electronic Materials Inc. and Soitec S.A.

 

 

The Portfolio held a position in Apple Inc. but was underweight relative to the benchmark. The consumer electronics company reported sharply higher profits due to strong sales of its Macintosh computers and iPod products, as well as enthusiasm over the recent launch of the iPhone.

 

 

Commercial Service & Supply and Household Durables stock selection detracted from relative performance.

 

 

In the Software sector, and underweight position in Oracle Corp. and an overweight position in AMDOCS Ltd. were notable detractors 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, 2007 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 Adviser

A team of professionals within the AXA Funds Management Group, a unit of AXA Equitable Life Insurance Company, determines the strategic asset class and underlying Portfolio allocations for the Portfolio. The team also is responsible for the ongoing evaluation and selection of underlying Portfolios and monitoring the overall investment process and performance for the Portfolio.

Portfolio Highlights

For the year ended December 31, 2007

 

 

As of December 31, 2007, the Portfolio was invested in 10 underlying EQ Advisors Trust and AXA Premier VIP Funds. These included 8 equity funds and 2 fixed income funds.

 

 

The Portfolio’s fixed income allocation consisted of investment grade bonds (8.4%) and high yield bonds (2.1%).

 

 

The Portfolio’s equity allocation consisted of large cap growth stocks (19.2%), large cap value stocks (17.1%), international stocks (30.1) and small and mid cap stocks (23.1%).

 

 

The Portfolio outperformed its benchmark for the year ended December 31, 2007.

 

 

During the year, the Portfolio benefited most from exposure to the EQ/Van Kampen Emerging Markets Equity Portfolio and the Multimanager Aggressive Equity Portfolio.

 

 

The EQ/Small Company Index Portfolio detracted from performance during the year.

 

 

The Portfolio is ahead of its benchmark since inception.

Since this Portfolio invests directly in underlying Portfolios, all risks associated with the eligible underlying Portfolios apply to the Portfolio. Investing in the Target Allocation Portfolios will involve a higher overall cost than if you were to invest directly in their underlying Portfolios.

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, 2007 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.

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.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

December 31, 2007

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 eleven diversified Portfolios and eleven 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, Multimanager Health Care Portfolio, Multimanager Technology Portfolio, Target 2015 Allocation Portfolio, Target 2025 Allocation Portfolio, Target 2035 Allocation Portfolio and Target 2045 Allocation Portfolio. The investment manager to each Portfolio is AXA Equitable Life Insurance Company (“AXA 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”), and the Target 2015 Allocation Portfolio, Target 2025 Allocation Portfolio, Target 2035 Allocation Portfolio and Target 2045 Allocation Portfolio (“Target Allocation Portfolios”), is provided by multiple investment sub-advisers (each an “Adviser”).

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 and the Target Allocation Portfolios are types of mutual funds often described as “fund of funds.” Each AXA Allocation Portfolio and Target Allocation Portfolio pursues its investment objective by investing exclusively in other mutual funds managed by AXA Equitable (EQ Advisors Trust and AXA Premier VIP Trust).

All of the Portfolios, except the AXA Allocation Portfolios and Target 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. Because each Adviser will be managing its allocated portion of the Portfolio independently from the other Advisers, the same security may be held in different portions of the Portfolio, or may be acquired for one portion of the Portfolio at a time when the Adviser of another portion deems it appropriate to dispose of the security. Similarly, under some market conditions, one Adviser may believe that temporary defensive investments in short-term instruments or cash are appropriate when the other Adviser or Advisers believe continued exposure to the equity markets is appropriate for their portions of the Portfolio. Because each Adviser directs the trading for its own portion of the Portfolio, and does not aggregate its transactions with those of the other Advisers, the Portfolio may incur higher brokerage costs, and have higher portfolio turnover, than would be the case if a single Adviser were managing the entire Portfolio.

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 AXA Equitable, an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of AXA, AXA Life and Annuity Company (“ALAC”), MONY Life Insurance Company (“MONY”) and MONY Life Insurance Company of America (“MONY America”), as well as insurance companies that are not affiliated with AXA Equitable, ALAC, MONY or MONY America and to The Investment Plan for Employees, Managers and Agents. The Investment Plan for Employees, Managers and Agents is the primary

The following is a summary of the 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:

Equity securities 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 equity securities 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.

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 last sale price is used. If the bid price is higher or the asked price is lower than the last sale price, the higher bid or lower asked price may be 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

AXA PREMIER VIP TRUST

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

December 31, 2007

 

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 investments which mature in 60 days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. Short-term investments, 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 and the Target Allocation Portfolios are valued based on the net asset value per share of each underlying open-end mutual 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.

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.

 

208


AXA PREMIER VIP TRUST

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

December 31, 2007

 

  (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. The tax composition of distributed and undistributed income and gains for the years ended December 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006, were as follows:

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 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, 2007, the cash collateral received by each Portfolio for securities loaned was invested by JPMorgan and is summarized in the Portfolio of Investments. The Portfolios bear the risk of any loss in market value of the collateral. 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 cancelled in closing purchase transactions are offset against the cost of any securities purchased or added to the proceeds or netted

 

212


AXA PREMIER VIP TRUST

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

December 31, 2007

 

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 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.

 

213


AXA PREMIER VIP TRUST

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

December 31, 2007

 

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.

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

 

214


AXA PREMIER VIP TRUST

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

December 31, 2007

 

below the repurchase price of the similar securities. None of the Portfolios had dollar roll transactions outstanding at December 31, 2007.

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 AXA Equitable. The Management Agreement for the Portfolios (other than the AXA Allocation Portfolios and the Target 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 statutes; and (vi) carry out the directives of the Board of Trustees. The Management Agreement for the AXA Allocation Portfolios and the Target Allocation Portfolios obligates the Manager to: (i) provide investment management and advisory services; (ii) render investment advice concerning the underlying funds in which to invest and the appropriate allocations for each of the AXA Allocation Portfolios and the Target Allocation Portfolios; (iii) review brokerage matters; (iv) oversee the Trust’s compliance with various federal and state statutes; and (v) carry out the directives of the Board of Trustees. For the year ended December 31, 2007, for its services under the Management Agreements, the Manager was entitled to receive an annual fee as a percentage of average daily net assets, for each of the following Portfolios, calculated daily and payable monthly as follows:

On behalf of the Trust, with the exception of the AXA Allocation Portfolios and Target Allocation Portfolios, the Manager has entered into investment advisory agreements (“Advisory Agreements”) with each of the Advisers for the Trust’s other Portfolios. Each of the Advisory Agreements obligates the Advisers for the respective Portfolios to: (i) continuously furnish investment programs for the Portfolios; (ii) place all 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, AXA Equitable (“Administrator”) provides the Trust with necessary administrative services. In addition, the Administrator makes available the office space,

 

216


AXA PREMIER VIP TRUST

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

December 31, 2007

 

equipment, personnel and facilities required to provide such administrative services to the Trust. For these administrative services, the Trust shall pay to AXA Equitable an annual fee in accordance with the following schedule:

(i) $35,000 for each Portfolio and for each multi-advised Portfolio, each “sleeve” of the multi-advised Portfolio; and

(ii) With respect to all Portfolios except the Allocation Portfolios and the Target Allocation Portfolios (“Multimanager Portfolios”):

0.150 of 1% of total average net assets of the Multimanager Portfolios up to and including $15 billion;

0.125* of 1% of total average net assets of the Multimanager Portfolios in excess of $15 billion and up to and including $30 billion;

0.100** of 1% of total average net assets of the Multimanager Portfolios in excess of $30 billion; and

(iii) With respect to the Allocation Portfolios and Target Allocation Portfolios:

0.150 of 1% of total average net assets of the Allocation Portfolios and Target Allocation Portfolios (excluding the assets of the Multimanager Portfolios).

 

* Prior to August 1, 2007, this was 0.140 of 1% of total average net assets.
** Prior to August 1, 2007, this was 0.125 of 1% of total average net assets.

The foregoing calculations are based on the average daily net assets of the Trust as described. The fees will be computed, billed and payable monthly.

Pursuant to a sub-administration arrangement with AXA 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. The Custody Agreement provides for an annual fee based on the amount of assets under custody plus transaction charges. 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 AXA 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. This limitation will be in effect at least until April 30, 2008. 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

The Manager has contractually agreed to make payments or waive its fees to limit the expenses of certain Portfolios through April 30, 2008 (“Expense Limitation Agreement”). The Manager first waives its management fees, then waives its administration fees, and then reimburses the Portfolio’s expenses out of its own resources. AXA 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 AXA

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:

* Prior to October 1, 2007, the expense limitation was 0.70%.

During the year ended December 31, 2007, the Manager received $370,263 in recoupment for all of the Portfolios within the Trust. These recoupments in excess of waivers during the year are presented as Recoupment Fees in the Statement of Operations. At December 31, 2007, under the Expense Limitation Agreement, the amount that would be recoverable from each Portfolio is as follows:

AXA PREMIER VIP TRUST

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 daily net assets) incurred indirectly in connection with each AXA Allocation Portfolio’s investments in Underlying Portfolios is:

 

Portfolios:

   Range of Expenses

AXA Conservative Allocation

   0.55% to 0.80%

AXA Conservative-Plus Allocation

   0.60% to 0.85%

AXA Moderate Allocation

   0.65% to 0.90%

AXA Moderate-Plus Allocation

   0.70% to 0.95%

AXA Aggressive Allocation

   0.80% to 1.05%

Target 2015 Allocation

   0.40% to 0.65%

Target 2025 Allocation

   0.40% to 0.65%

Target 2035 Allocation

   0.40% to 0.65%

Target 2045 Allocation

   0.40% to 0.65%

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

   0.65% to 0.90%    0.90% to 1.15%

AXA Conservative-Plus Allocation

   0.70% to 0.95%    0.95% to 1.20%

AXA Moderate Allocation

   0.75% to 1.00%    1.00% to 1.25%

AXA Moderate-Plus Allocation

   0.80% to 1.05%    1.05% to 1.30%

AXA Aggressive Allocation

   0.90% to 1.15%    1.15% to 1.40%

Target 2015 Allocation

   0.75% to 1.00%    1.00% to 1.25%

Target 2025 Allocation

   0.75% to 1.00%    1.00% to 1.25%

Target 2035 Allocation

   0.75% to 1.00%    1.00% to 1.25%

Target 2045 Allocation

   0.75% to 1.00%    1.00% to 1.25%

Absent the Expense Limitation Agreement of the Allocation Portfolios and the Target Allocation Portfolios, 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

   0.86% to 1.11%    1.11% to 1.36%

AXA Conservative-Plus Allocation

   0.89% to 1.14%    1.14% to 1.39%

AXA Moderate Allocation

   0.92% to 1.17%    1.17% to 1.42%

AXA Moderate-Plus Allocation

   0.97% to 1.22%    1.22% to 1.47%

AXA Aggressive Allocation

   1.07% to 1.32%    1.32% to 1.57%

Target 2015 Allocation

   2.21% to 2.46%    2.46% to 2.71%

Target 2025 Allocation

   1.91% to 2.16%    2.16% to 2.41%

Target 2035 Allocation

   2.88% to 3.13%    3.13% to 3.38%

Target 2045 Allocation

   3.31% to 3.56%    3.56% to 3.81%

The above Allocation Portfolio 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 interest 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, 2007, the total amount deferred by the Trustees participating in the Plan was $590,000.

Note 9 New Accounting Pronouncements

In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes — an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (the “Interpretation”). The Interpretation establishes for all entities, including pass-through entities such as the Portfolios, a minimum threshold for financial statement recognition of the benefit of positions taken in filing tax returns (including whether an entity is taxable in a particular jurisdiction), and requires certain expanded tax disclosures. The Interpretation is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006, and is to be applied to the Portfolios’ open tax years, generally the three preceding fiscal year ends. Based on Management’s analysis, the determination has been made that the adoption of the interpretation did not have an impact to the Portfolios’ financial statements upon adoption. Management continually reviews the Portfolios’ tax positions and such conclusions under the Interpretation based on factors, including, but not limited to, ongoing analyses of tax laws, regulations and interpretations thereof.

In September 2006, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (SFAS 157), was issued and is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Management is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of SFAS 157 will have on the Portfolio’s financial statements.

In February 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities – including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115.”(“SFAS 159”), which is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. SFAS 159 permits entities to elect to measure certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value. The fair value option may be applied instrument by instrument, is irrevocable and is applied only to entire instruments and not to portions of instruments. SFAS 159 also establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparisons between entities that choose different measurement attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities. Management is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of SFAS 159 will have on the Portfolio’s financial statement disclosures.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Trustees and Shareholders 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 22 portfolios constituting the AXA Premier VIP Trust (the “Trust”) at December 31, 2007, and the results of each of their operations, the changes in each of their net assets and their financial highlights for each of the periods presented, 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, 2007 by correspondence with the custodian, transfer agent and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

* Please note that the investment advisory agreements with Clearbridge Advisors LLC (Multimanager Aggressive Equity Portfolio) and T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc. (Multimanager Large Cap Growth Portfolio) are not scheduled to be considered by the Board for renewal until July 2008.

In approving each Agreement, the Board considered the overall fairness of the Agreement and whether the Agreement was in the best interest of the affected Portfolio. The Board further considered factors it deemed relevant with respect to each Portfolio, including, as applicable: (1) the nature, quality and extent of the services provided to the Portfolio by the Manager, each sub-adviser (each, an “Adviser”) and their respective affiliates; (2) the performance of the Portfolio (and, where applicable, each portion of the Portfolio advised by a different Adviser) as compared to a peer group and an appropriate benchmark; (3) the level of the Portfolio’s management and sub-advisory fees; (4) the costs of the services provided and profits realized by the Manager and its affiliates from their relationship with the Portfolio; (5) the anticipated effect of growth and size on the Portfolio’s performance and expenses; and (6) the “fall out” benefits to be realized by the Manager, each Adviser and their respective affiliates (i.e., any direct or indirect benefits to be derived by the Manager, each Adviser and their respective affiliates from their relationship with the Trust). In considering each Agreement, the Board did not identify any single factor or information as all-important or controlling.

Moreover, with respect to the Portfolios with multiple Advisers (the “Multi-Adviser Portfolios”), the Board considered factors in the context of the overall objectives for the Portfolios including the following: (1) to offer a multi-manager product to investors which provides access to Advisers that would not otherwise be available to many of the Portfolios’ investors because of those Advisers’ minimum investment amounts; (2) to offer a broad array of investment disciplines; (3) to provide active oversight through the Manager to monitor compliance with performance, volatility and other stated objectives; and (4) to pro-

 

226


vide performance over extended market cycles with lower volatility than the selected market sector index by combining different Advisers within the same discipline. However, the Board factored into its decision on the Management Agreement the totality of services provided by the Manager and the fact that the disclosure of all fees and expenses is explicit to potential and current shareholders.

In connection with its deliberations, the Board, among other things, received information, in advance of the meeting at which the approvals or renewals were made, from the Manager and each Adviser regarding the factors set forth above and met with senior representatives of the Manager to discuss the Agreements. The Board received, and primarily considered, the most current information available at the time of the meeting and also took into account data concerning performance, fees, expense and other information regarding each Portfolio provided to them on a periodic basis throughout the year. The Independent Trustees were assisted by independent counsel during their deliberations and received materials discussing the legal standards applicable to their consideration of the Agreements.

The Board, in examining the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Manager and each Adviser to each Portfolio, considered the Manager’s and each Adviser’s experience in serving as an investment adviser for the Portfolio(s) and for portfolios similar to the Portfolio(s) it advises. The Board noted the responsibilities of the Manager to the Trust and the Portfolio. In particular, the Board considered that the Manager is responsible for the search, selection and monitoring of the Advisers for the Multi-Adviser Portfolios, the selection of investments for the Allocation Portfolios and Target Allocation Portfolios, oversight of compliance with the Portfolios’ policies and objectives, as well as oversight of the Portfolios’ compliance with applicable law, review of brokerage matters and implementation of Board directives as they relate to the Portfolios. In addition, the Board reviewed requested information regarding the Manager’s process for selecting and monitoring Advisers and its process for making investment decisions for the Allocation Portfolios and Target Allocation Portfolios as well as the backgrounds of the personnel who perform those functions with respect to the Portfolios.

The Board also noted the responsibilities of each Adviser to the Portfolio(s) it advises. In particular, the Board considered that each Adviser is responsible for making investment decisions on behalf of the allocated portion of the Portfolio(s) it advises, placing all orders for the purchase and sale of investments for the allocated portion of the Portfolio(s) it advises with brokers or dealers and performing related administrative functions. In addition, the Board reviewed requested information regarding, among other things, each Adviser’s investment process and the background of each portfolio manager of each Adviser who provides services to the Portfolios.

As discussed further below with respect to each Portfolio, the Board also received and considered information regarding the short-, intermediate- and long-term performance of each Portfolio over multiple periods on both an absolute basis and relative to its primary benchmark and peer group (with the first quartile of the peer group being the best performers and the fourth quartile being the worst performers). The Board generally considered long-term performance to be more important in its evaluation than short-term performance. The Board also considered the performance of the allocated portions of each Multi-Adviser Portfolio allocated to each of its Advisers. In this connection, the Board considered whether the performance of the portions allocated to each of the Advisers met the Board’s expectations as to the compatibility of the Advisers’ different investment strategies and styles and the contribution of each to the overall Portfolio strategy and performance.

The Board also reviewed the fees payable under each Agreement. The Board examined the management fees paid by each Portfolio in light of fees charged by the Manager to similar portfolios it manages and similar portfolios that serve as underlying funds for variable insurance products that are advised by other investment advisers. The Board also considered the quality and level of services provided and the Manager’s responsibilities to each Portfolio. In connection with the Agreements that were being considered for annual renewal, the Board also considered a report provided by Lipper Inc., an independent third party company, containing information regarding the management fee (including the administration fee) and the total expense ratios for each Portfolio relative to the median and average management fees and expense ratios of its peer group. The Board considered that the contractual management fee (including administration fees paid to the Manager) and total expense ratios for each Multi-Advised Portfolio generally are higher than the median management fee and median total expense ratio, respectively, of its peer

 

227


group. The Board was advised by management, however, that the higher management fees and expense ratios are consistent with the higher costs and greater complexity associated with multi-manager funds. Management additionally represented that its profits are appropriate in light of the services it rendered and its entrepreneurial efforts. The Board also considered that the management fee structure for each Multi-Adviser Portfolio has breakpoints that provide a reduction of the applicable advisory fee rate as assets increase. With respect to each Allocation Portfolio and Target Allocation Portfolio, the Board considered that the contractual management fee (including administration fees paid to the Manager) is higher than the median management fee of each such Portfolio’s respective peer group. The Board also considered that the total expense ratios for the Allocation Portfolios generally are at or below the median expense ratio for the applicable peer group, before consideration of expenses incurred by the Underlying Portfolios (except for Class B shares of the AXA Aggressive Allocation Portfolio, which are above the median), and that the total expense ratios for the Target Allocation Portfolios generally are at or above the median expense ratio for the applicable peer group. The Board further considered that the Manager had undertaken, at the Board’s behest, contractual expense limitations with respect to certain Portfolios, which are subject to renewal by the Board and the Manager on an annual basis. In addition, the Board evaluated the Manager’s costs and profitability in providing services to the Portfolios, including the costs associated with the research and investment processes, personnel, systems and infrastructure necessary to perform its functions. The Board determined that the Manager’s management fee and profitability and each Portfolio’s overall expense ratios generally were more significant to the Board’s evaluation of the fees and expenses paid by the Portfolios than each Adviser’s costs and profitability. With respect to the Advisers to the Multi-Adviser Portfolios, the Board also examined the advisory fees paid with respect to each Portfolio in light of the fees paid by similar portfolios advised by each Adviser.

As part of its evaluation of the Manager’s and each Adviser’s compensation, the Board considered other benefits that may be realized by the Manager, each Adviser and their respective affiliates from their relationship with the Trust. In this connection, the Board noted, among other things, that the Manager also serves as the administrator for the Portfolios, receiving compensation for acting in this capacity. In addition, the Board recognized that two of the Manager’s affiliates, AllianceBernstein, L.P. and AXA Rosenberg Investment Management, LLC, serve as Advisers to certain Portfolios and, as such, receive advisory fees that are paid by the Manager out of the fees that it earns from the Trust. The Board also recognized that AXA Advisors LLC and AXA Distributors LLC, which also are affiliated with the Manager, serve as the underwriters for the Trust and, as such, receive payments pursuant to Rule 12b-1 plans from the Portfolios with respect to their Class B shares to compensate them for providing shareholder services and selling activities, which could lead to growth in the Trust’s assets and corresponding benefits from such growth, including economies of scale. Further, the Board considered that Sanford C. Bernstein & Co., LLC, a registered broker-dealer, is an affiliate of the Manager and from time to time may receive brokerage commissions from the Portfolios in connection with the purchase and sale of portfolio securities, provided, however, that those transactions, among other things, must be consistent with seeking best execution. The Board also noted that the Manager, as the depositor of insurance company separate accounts investing in the Portfolios, receives certain tax benefits associated with such investments.

With respect to the Advisers, the Board noted that each Adviser, through its relationship as an Adviser to its Portfolio(s), may engage in soft dollar transactions. The Board received information regarding each Adviser’s procedures for executing portfolio transactions for the allocated portion of the Portfolio(s) it advises and each Adviser’s policies and procedures for the selection of brokers and dealers and for obtaining research from those brokers and dealers. In addition, the Board considered that each Adviser may be affiliated with registered broker-dealers, which may, from time to time, receive brokerage commissions from the Portfolios in connection with the purchase and sale of portfolio securities; provided, however, that those transactions, among other things, must be consistent with seeking best execution. Finally, the Board recognized that affiliates of the Advisers may sell, and earn sales commissions and/or other compensation with respect to, insurance products issued by the Manager or its affiliates and that the proceeds of those sales may be invested in the Portfolios.

The Board also considered conflicts of interest that may arise between the Trust and the Manager and the Advisers in connection with the services provided to the Trust and the various relationships that the Advisers and their affiliates may have with the Trust. For example, actual or potential conflicts of interest may arise as a result of an Adviser having responsibility for multiple accounts (including the Portfolio(s) it

 

228


advises), such as devotion of unequal time and attention to the management of the accounts, inability to allocate limited investment opportunities across accounts and incentive to allocate opportunities to an account where the Adviser has a greater financial incentive, such as a performance fee account. In this connection, the Board also took into consideration the manner in which such conflicts are addressed by the Manager and the Advisers.

Based on these considerations, the Board was satisfied, with respect to each Portfolio, that: (1) the Portfolio was reasonably likely to benefit from the nature, extent and quality of the Manager’s and each Adviser’s services; and (2) the Manager’s and each Adviser’s compensation, including any direct or indirect benefits derived by them or their respective affiliates, is fair and reasonable. Based on the foregoing, the information described below and the more detailed information provided at the relevant meeting, the Board, including the Independent Trustees, unanimously approved or renewed, as applicable, each Agreement with respect to the relevant Portfolio(s).

Multimanager Large Cap Core Equity Portfolio

The Board considered, among other things, that the performance of the Multimanager Large Cap Core Equity Portfolio’s Class B shares was in the second quartile relative to its Lipper peer group for the one-year period ended May 31, 2007, and was in the third quartile for the three- and five-year periods ended on that date. The Board also considered that the Portfolio’s performance for the one-year, three-year, five-year and since inception periods ended May 31, 2007 generally was comparable to that of its primary benchmark for the same time periods. Based on its review, the Board was satisfied that the Portfolio’s performance generally has been reasonable in relation to the performance of its peer group and benchmark.

The Board also considered that the Manager had taken steps to strengthen the Portfolio’s performance through the appointment of T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc. as an Adviser to the Portfolio in December 2006. The Board also took into account other information provided by the Manager at the applicable Board meeting, as well as information provided over the course of the year regarding the Portfolio’s performance. After reviewing these and related factors, the Board concluded that it was satisfied with the Manager’s and Advisers’ efforts to improve the Portfolio’s performance.

Multimanager Large Cap Value Portfolio

The Board considered, among other things, that the performance of the Multimanager Large Cap Value Portfolio’s Class B shares was in the first quartile relative to its Lipper peer group for the three- and five-year periods ended May 31, 2007, and was in the second quartile for the one-year period ended on that date. The Board also considered that the Portfolio’s performance for the one-year, three-year, five-year and since inception periods ended May 31, 2007 generally was comparable to that of its primary benchmark for the same time periods. Based on its review, the Board was satisfied that the Portfolio’s performance generally has been reasonable in relation to the performance of its peer group and benchmark.

Multimanager Mid Cap Value Portfolio

The Board considered, among other things, that the performance of the Multimanager Mid Cap Value Portfolio’s Class B shares was in the fourth quartile for the one-, three- and five-year periods ended May 31, 2007.

The Board also took into account other information provided by the Manager at the Board meeting, as well as information provided over the course of the year regarding the Portfolio’s performance. The Board further considered that the Portfolio’s recent performance had improved in that the Portfolio outperformed its primary benchmark for the year-to-date period ended May 31, 2007 and had comparable performance to that of its peer group for the same period. After reviewing these and related factors, the Board concluded that it was satisfied with the Manager’s and Advisers’ efforts to improve the Portfolio’s performance.

Multimanager Small Cap Growth Portfolio

In connection with the appointment of Wells Capital Management Inc. as an Adviser for a portion of the Multimanager Small Cap Growth Portfolio to replace Bear Stearns Asset Management, Inc., as recommended by the Manager and approved by the Board on September 6, 2007, the Board considered, among other things, that the performance of the Adviser’s accounts with substantially similar investment objectives and policies as the Portfolio outperformed the Portfolio’s benchmark for the one-, three- and five-year periods ended December 31, 2006.

The Board also considered that, although the Portfolio generally had underperformed its primary weighted benchmark for the one-and three-year periods ended May 31, 2007, the Portfolio’s performance over those time periods generally was comparable to that of the benchmark. The Board also considered that the Portfolio’s investment

 

231


objectives and policies generally are more conservative than those of other portfolios included in the peer group, which generally limits the likelihood that the Portfolio will outperform its peer group or benchmark.

A copy of the registrant’s code of ethics is filed as an exhibit pursuant to Item 12(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 2007: $6,224,020
(h) For fiscal year 2006: $5,257,288.50

 

(i) 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.
