Maxim S&P 500 Index Portfolio

 

Across the board, major U.S. equity indexes logged a strong fourth quarter further extending the gains of 2006. The S&P 500 Index increased 6.7% during the quarter resulting in a 15.8% return for 2006. Leading sectors in the S&P 500 Index included Energy, returning 10.7%, and Materials, gaining 10.6%. Among Energy constituents, heavyweight Exxon Mobil was the top contributor to sector return as the company increased 14.2%. Despite only modest gains in crude oil, producers ConocoPhillips, Marathon Oil, and Hess Corp were all able to post gains in excess of 19.0%. Materials, the second best performing sector, was led by Allegheny Technologies posting a period return of 45.8% thanks to a doubling of revenues from year ago levels. Phelps Dodge gained 41.3% following an acquisition announcement by Freeport-McMoRan Copper & Gold Inc. The deal is scheduled to close during the first quarter of 2007. The Federal Reserve remained on hold for the quarter as the Board of Governors struggled to digest mixed economic data. Tight labor markets and gains in personal income increase the likelihood of a resurgence in inflation. Indeed, a mid period read showed core-inflation experiencing its largest monthly jump in over five years. Offsetting this core-inflation increase, prices at the pump subsided as oil continues to slide from its August high. This conflicting data has caused traders to price in a 50% chance of a rate cut by the Fed. Aside from Fed movements, considerable attention was paid to the housing sector. Both housing starts and building permits continued their precipitous fall during the quarter, raising fears that slowed growth in the industry would result in recession. Even Chairman Ben Bernanke weighed in on the topic admitting housing was one of his larger concerns. To date, the housing slowdown has been a slight drag on GDP, but housing prices remain stable thereby sustaining consumer spending.

This graph, prepared in accordance with SEC regulations, compares a $10,000 investment in the Maxim S&P 500 Index Portfolio, made at its inception, with the performance of the S&P 500 Index. Results include the reinvestment of all dividends and capital gains distributions. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when

redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. The graph and table do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares.

 

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of Maxim Series Fund, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the schedule of investments, of S&P 500 Index® Portfolio of the Maxim Series Fund, Inc. (the “Fund”) as of December 31, 2006, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2006 and for the period from September 8, 2003 (inception) to December 31, 2003. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. The Fund is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting.  Our audit includes consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Funds’ internal control over financial reporting.  Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2006, by correspondence with the custodian. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of S&P 500 Index® Portfolio of the Maxim Series Fund, Inc. as of December 31, 2006, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2006 and for the period from September 8, 2003 (inception) to December 31, 2003, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

MAXIM S&P 500 INDEX® PORTFOLIO

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2006

 

1.

ORGANIZATION & SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Maxim Series Fund, Inc. (the Fund) is a Maryland corporation organized on December 7, 1981 and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the 1940 Act) as an open-end management investment company. The Fund presently consists of thirty-one portfolios. Interests in the Maxim S&P 500 Index® Portfolio (the Portfolio) are included herein and are represented by a separate class of beneficial interest of the Fund. The investment objective of the Portfolio is to seek investment results that track the total return of the common stocks that comprise the Standard & Poor’s 500 Composite Stock Price Index. The Portfolio is diversified as defined in the 1940 Act. The Portfolio is available only as an investment option for certain variable annuity contracts and variable life policies issued by Great-West Life & Annuity Insurance Company (GWL&A), First Great-West Life & Annuity Insurance Company and New England Financial, and certain qualified retirement plans for which GWL&A, First Great-West Life & Annuity Insurance Company and New England Financial provide administrative services and for the Maxim Profile Portfolios.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies of the Fund.

Security Valuation

Short-term securities with a maturity of 60 days or less are valued on the basis of amortized cost.

 

For securities that are traded on an exchange, the last sale price as of the close of business of the principal exchange will be used. If the closing price is not available, the current bid will be used. For securities that principally trade on the NASDAQ National Market System, the NASDAQ official closing price will be used. In the event that trading on a security is halted prior to the end of the trading day due to a significant event, portfolio management will determine whether further pricing adjustment is necessary.

 

Fixed income and other securities are valued by independent pricing services approved by the Board of Directors.

 

While fair value determinations involve judgments that are inherently subjective, these determinations are made in good faith in accordance with procedures adopted by the Board of Directors. Factors used in the determination of fair value may include monitoring news to identify significant market or security specific events such as changes in the value of U.S. securities market, reviewing developments in foreign markets and evaluating the performance of ADRs, futures contracts and exchange-traded funds. The effect of fair value pricing as described above is that securities may not be priced on the basis of quotations from the primary market in which they are traded, but rather may be priced by another method that the board believes reflects fair value. This policy is intended to assure that the Portfolio’s net asset value fairly reflects security values at the time of pricing. Developments that might be considered significant events to trigger fair value pricing could be a natural disaster, government actions or significant fluctuations in domestic or foreign markets.

Financial Futures Contracts

The Portfolio may invest in financial futures contracts as a substitute for a comparable market position in the underlying securities. Upon entering into a financial futures contract, the Portfolio is required to pledge to the broker an amount of cash and/or other assets equal to a certain percentage of the contract amount (initial margin deposit). Receipts or payments, known as “variation margin”, are made or received by the Portfolio each day, depending on the daily fluctuations in the fair value of the underlying security. Changes in the value of open futures contracts are recorded in the Statement of Operations as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on futures contracts. The use of futures contracts may involve risks such as the possibility of illiquid markets or imperfect correlation between the value of the contracts and the underlying securities, or that the counterparty will fail to perform its obligations.

Dividends

Dividends from net investment income of the Portfolio are declared and paid semi-annually. Income dividends are reinvested in additional shares at net asset value. Dividends from capital gains of the Portfolio, if any, are declared and reinvested at least annually in additional shares at net asset value.

Security Transactions

Security transactions are accounted for on the date the security is purchased or sold (trade date). The cost of investments sold is determined on a specific lot selection.

Dividend income for the Portfolio is accrued as of the ex-dividend date and interest income, including amortization of discounts and premiums, is recorded daily.

Federal Income Taxes

For federal income tax purposes, the Portfolio currently qualifies, and intends to remain qualified, as a regulated investment company under the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code by distributing substantially all of its taxable net income (both ordinary and capital gain) to its shareholders and complying with other requirements for regulated investment companies. Accordingly, no provision for federal income taxes has been made.

Classification of Distributions to Shareholders

The character of distributions made during the year from net investment income or net realized gains are determined in accordance with income tax regulations that may differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Application of Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Financial Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” (FIN 48). FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in accordance with FASB Statement No. 109 “Accounting for Income Taxes”. FIN 48 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken in a tax return. It also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The Portfolio has evaluated the impact that the adoption of FIN 48 will have on its financial position and the results of its operations and does not anticipate that there will be any adjustments required.

In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (FAS 157). FAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. FAS 157 shall be effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Portfolio is evaluating the impact that the adoption of FAS 157 will have on its financial position and the results of its operations. As such, any necessary adjustments pursuant to FAS 157 will be reflected on the semi-annual report for the period ending June 30, 2008.

2.

INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT & OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES

The Fund has entered into an investment advisory agreement with GW Capital Management, LLC, doing business as Maxim Capital Management, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of GWL&A. As compensation for its services to the Fund, the investment adviser receives monthly compensation at the annual rate of 0.60% of the average daily net assets of the Portfolio. The management fee encompasses fund operation expenses.

Effective April 1, 2006, GWFS Equities, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of GWL&A, became the principal underwriter to distribute and market the Portfolio. Prior to that date, Greenwood Investments, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of GWL&A, was the principal underwriter. FASCore, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of GWL&A, performs transfer agent servicing functions for the Portfolio.

As of December 31, 2006, there were thirty-one Portfolios of the Fund for which the Directors served as Directors. The total compensation paid to the independent directors with respect to all funds for which they serve as Directors was $102,000 for the year ended

December 31, 2006. Certain officers of the Fund are also directors and/or officers of GWL&A or its subsidiaries. No officer or interested director of the Fund receives any compensation directly from the Fund. 

3.

PURCHASES & SALES OF INVESTMENT SECURITIES

For the year ended December 31, 2006, the aggregate cost of purchases and proceeds from sales of investment securities (excluding all U.S. Government securities and short-term securities) were $76,466,244 and $97,738,622, respectively. For the same period, there were no purchases or sales of long-term U.S. Government securities.

4.

UNREALIZED APPRECIATION (DEPRECIATION)

At December 31, 2006, the U.S. Federal income tax cost basis was $595,299,685. The Portfolio had gross appreciation of securities in which there was an excess of value over tax cost of $197,018,406 and gross depreciation of securities in which there was an excess of tax cost over value of $20,226,140 resulting in net appreciation of $176,792,266.

SECURITIES LOANED

The Portfolio has entered into a securities lending agreement with its custodian. Under the terms of the agreement the Portfolio receives annual income, recorded monthly, after deductions of other amounts payable to the custodian or to the borrower from lending transactions. In exchange for such fees, the custodian is authorized to loan securities on behalf of the Portfolio against receipt of cash collateral at least equal in value at all times to the value of the securities loaned plus accrued interest. Cash collateral is invested by the custodian in securities approved by the Board of Directors and is disclosed as “Collateral for securities loaned” in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The Portfolio also continues to receive interest or dividends on the securities loaned. As of December 31, 2006, the Portfolio had securities on loan valued at $19,602,349 and received collateral of $19,744,080 for such loan. The Portfolio bears the risk of any deficiency in the amount of collateral available for return to a borrower due to a loss in an approved investment.

DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS

The tax character of distributions paid during the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005 were as follows:

 

 

2006

Distributions paid from:

 

 

 

 

Ordinary income

9,742,474

$4

8,631,337

Long-term capital gain

As of December 31, 2006, the components of distributable earnings on a tax basis were as follows:

Undistributed ordinary income

$

111,633

Undistributed capital gains

 

1,568,735

Net accumulated earnings

 

1,680,368

 

 

 

Net unrealized appreciation on investments

 

176,792,266

Capital loss carryforwards

 

0

Post-October losses

 

0

Total accumulated gain on investments

$

178,472,634

 

Distributions are determined on a tax basis and may differ from net investment income and realized capital gains for financial reporting purposes. The differences between book basis and tax basis are primarily due to tax deferral of losses on wash sales. For the year ended December 31, 2006 the Portfolio reclassified $321,804 from undistributed net investment income to paid-in capital and $221,284 from accumulated net realized gain on investments to undistributed net investment income. This adjustment has no impact on net assets or the results

of operations. Also, due to the timing of dividend distributions, the fiscal year in which amounts are distributed may differ from the fiscal year in which the income or realized gain was recorded by the Portfolio.

At December 31, 2006, the Portfolio had available for federal income tax purposes unused capital loss carryforwards of $321,804 for each period ending December 31, 2006 through 2011. For the year ended December 31, 2006, the Portfolio utilized $321,804 of capital loss carryforwards.

 

8.

TAX INFORMATION (unaudited)

Dividends paid by the Portfolio from net investment income and distributions of net realized short-term capital gains are, for federal income tax purposes, taxable as ordinary income to shareholders. Of the ordinary income distributions declared for the period ended December 31, 2006, 100% qualifies for the dividend received deduction available to the Portfolio’s corporate shareholders.

As a shareholder of the Portfolio, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees and other Portfolio expenses. This Example is 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 Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (June 30, 2006 to December 31, 2006).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Actual Expenses

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The first line of the table below 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 $1,000.00 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000.00 = 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 transaction costs. 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.

Pre-Approval of Audit Services. The Audit Committee must approve prior to retention all audit, review or attest engagements required under the securities laws that are provided to the Fund by its independent auditors. The Audit Committee will not grant such approval to any auditors that are proposed to perform an audit for the Fund if a chief executive officer, controller, chief financial officer, chief accounting officer or any person serving in an equivalent position for the Fund that is responsible for the financial reporting or operations of the Fund was employed by those auditors and participated in any capacity in an audit of the Fund during the year period (or such other period proscribed under SEC rules) preceding the date of initiation of such audit.    

 

Pre-Approval of Non-Audit Services. The Audit Committee must pre-approve any non-audit services, including tax services, to be provided to the Fund by its independent auditors (except those within applicable de minimis statutory or regulatory exceptions)1 provided that the Fund's auditors will not provide the following non-audit services to the Fund: (a) bookkeeping or other services related to the accounting records or financial statements of the Fund; (b) financial information systems design and implementation; (c) appraisal or valuation services, fairness opinions, or contribution-in-kind reports; (d) actuarial services; (e) internal audit outsourcing services; (f) management functions or human resources; (g) broker-dealer, investment adviser, or investment banking services; (h) legal services; (i) expert services unrelated to the audit; and (j) any other service that the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board determines, by regulation, is impermissible.2

_________________________

No pre-approval is required as to non-audit services provided to the Fund if: (a) the aggregate amount of all non-audit services provided to the Fund constitute not more than 5% of the total amount of revenues paid by the Fund to the independent auditors during the fiscal year in which the services are provided; (b) these services were not recognized by the Fund at the time of the engagement to be non-audit services; and (c) the services are promptly brought to the attention of the Audit Committee and approved by the Audit Committee prior to the completion of the audit.

With respect to the prohibitions on (a) bookkeeping; (b) financial information systems design and implementation; (c) appraisal, valuation, fairness opinions, or contribution-in-kind reports; (d) actuarial; and (e) internal audit outsourcing, such services are permitted to be provided if it is reasonable to conclude that the results of these services will not be subject to audit procedures during an audit of the audit client's financial statements.

Pre-approval with respect to Non-Fund Entities. The Audit Committee must pre-approve any non-audit services that relate directly to the operations and financial reporting of the Fund (except those within applicable de minimis statutory or regulatory exceptions)3 to be provided by the Fund's auditors to (a) the Fund's investment adviser; and (b) any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the investment adviser if that entity provides ongoing services to the Fund.4 The Audit Committee may approve audit and non-audit services on a case-by-case basis or adopt pre-approval policies and procedures that are detailed as to a particular service, provided that the Audit Committee is informed promptly of each service, or use a combination of these approaches.

 

Delegation. The Audit Committee may delegate pre-approval authority to one or more of the Audit Committee's members. Any member or members to whom such pre-approval authority is delegated must report any pre-approval decisions to the Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting.

 

(e)

(2)  100% of the services described pursuant to paragraphs (b) through (d) of this Item 4 of Form N-CSR were approved by the audit committee, and no such services were approved by the audit committee pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(i)(C) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X.

 

(f)

Not Applicable.

 

(g)

The aggregate non-audit fees billed by the registrant’s accountant for services rendered to the registrant, and rendered to the registrant’s investment adviser (not including any sub-adviser whose role is primarily portfolio management and is subcontracted with or overseen by another investment adviser), and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the adviser that provides ongoing services to the registrant for fiscal year 2005 equaled $499,505, and for fiscal year 2006 equaled $436,000.

 

(h)

The registrant’s audit committee of the board of directors has considered whether the provision of non-audit services that were rendered to the registrant’s investment adviser (not including any subadviser whose role is primarily portfolio management and is subcontracted with or overseen by another 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

 

_________________________

For non-audit services provided to the adviser and entities in a control relationship with the adviser, no pre-approval is required if: (a) the aggregate amount of all non-audit services provided constitute not more than 5% of the total amount of revenues paid to the independent auditors during the fiscal year in which the services are provided to the Fund, the Fund's investment adviser, and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the investment adviser if that entity provides ongoing services to the Fund; (b) these services were not recognized by the Fund at the time of the engagement to be non-audit services; and (c) the services are promptly brought to the attention of the Audit Committee and approved by the Audit Committee prior to the completion of the audit.
