NOTE  1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The AEGON/Transamerica Series Fund, Inc. (“ATSF”) is a Maryland corporation registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. ATSF serves as a funding vehicle for variable life insurance, variable annuity and group annuity products. AEGON Bond (“the Fund”), part of ATSF, began operations on October 2, 1986.

 

In the normal course of business the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties, which provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote.

 

See the Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information for a description of the Fund’s investment objective.

 

In preparing the Fund’s financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with GAAP.

 

Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers two classes of shares, an Initial Class and a Service Class. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses.

 

Pricing of shares: The Fund prices its shares on the basis of the net asset value of each class of shares of the Fund, which is determined as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) (generally 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time) on each day on which the NYSE is open for trading (other than a day on which there are insufficient changes in the value of the Fund’s portfolio securities to materially affect the Fund’s net asset value or a day on which no shares are tendered for redemption and no order to purchase any shares is received).

 

Security valuations: Fund investments traded on an exchange are valued at the closing price on the day of valuation on the exchange where the security is principally traded.

 

Debt securities are valued by independent pricing services; however, those that mature in sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market.

Investment company securities are valued at the net asset value of the underlying portfolio. Other securities for which quotations are not readily available also are valued at fair market value as determined in good faith using guidelines established by and under the supervision of the Board of Directors and the Fund’s Valuation Committee. These guidelines may include: the type of security; any restrictions on its resale; financial or business news of the issuer; similar or related securities that are actively trading; related corporate actions; and other significant events occurring after the close of trading in the security.

 

Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investors Bank & Trust Company (“IBT”). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at June 30, 2004, was paying an interest rate of 0.75%.

 

Repurchase agreements: The Fund is authorized to enter into repurchase agreements. The Fund, through IBT, receives delivery of the underlying securities, the value of which at the time of purchase is required to be an amount equal to at least 100% of the resale price. Repurchase agreements involve the risk that the seller will fail to repurchase the security, as agreed. In that case, the Fund will bear the risk of value fluctuations until the security can be sold and may encounter delays and incur costs in liquidating the security. In the event of bankruptcy or insolvency of the seller, delays and costs are incurred.

 

Securities lending: The Fund may lend securities to enhance fund earnings from investing cash collateral received in making such loans to qualified borrowers (typically broker/dealers). The Fund has engaged its custodian bank, IBT, as a lending agent to administer its securities lending program. IBT earned $4 of program net income for its services. When the Fund makes a security loan, it receives cash collateral as protection against the risk that the borrower will default on the loan, and records an asset for the cash invested collateral and a liability for the return of the collateral.

 

Loans of securities are required to be secured by collateral at least equal to 102% of the value of the securities at inception of the loan, and not less then 100% thereafter. The Fund may invest cash collateral in short-term money market instruments including: U.S. Treasury Bills, U.S. agency obligations, commercial paper, money market mutual funds, repurchase agreements and other highly rated, liquid investments. During the life of securities loans, the collateral and securities loaned remain subject to fluctuation in value. IBT marks to market securities loaned and the collateral each business day. If additional collateral is due (at least $1), IBT collects additional cash collateral from the borrowers. Although securities loaned will be fully collateralized at all times, IBT may experience delays in, or may be prevented from, recovering the collateral on behalf of the Fund. The Fund may recall a loaned security position at any time from the borrower through IBT. In the event the borrower fails to timely return a recalled security, IBT may indemnify the Fund by purchasing replacement securities for the Fund at its own expense and claiming the collateral to fund such a purchase. IBT absorbs the loss if the collateral value is not sufficient to cover the cost of the replacement securities. If replacement securities are not available, IBT will credit the equivalent cash value to the Fund.

ATFA has contractually agreed to waive its advisory fee and will reimburse the Fund to the extent that operating expenses, excluding 12b-1 fees, exceed the following stated annual limit:

 

0.70% Expense Limit

 

If total fund expenses fall below the annual expense limitations agreed to by the adviser within the succeeding three years, the Fund may be required to pay the adviser a portion or all of the waived advisory fees.

 

There are no amounts subject to recapture at June 30, 2004.

Distribution and services fees: The Fund adopted a distribution plan (“Distribution Plan”) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Pursuant to the Distribution Plan, ATSF entered into a Distribution Agreement with AFSG effective May 1, 1999.

 

Under the Distribution Plan and Distribution Agreement on the Initial Class shares, AFSG, on behalf of the Fund, is authorized to pay various affiliated service providers, as direct payment for expenses incurred in connection with distribution of the Fund’s shares, amounts equal to actual expenses associated with distributing the shares.

 

The Distribution Plan on the Service Class shares requires ATSF to pay distribution fees to AFSG as compensation for its activities, not as reimbursement for specific expenses. The fee on the Service Class is paid to the insurance companies for providing services and account maintenance for their policyholders who invest in the variable insurance products which invest in the Service Class shares.

 

The Fund is authorized under the 12b-1 plan to pay fees on each class up to the following limits:

 

Initial Class

   0.15%

Service Class

   0.25%

 

AFSG has determined that it will not seek payment by the Fund of the distribution expenses incurred with respect to the Initial Class shares before April 30, 2005. Prior to AFSG seeking reimbursement of future expenses, policy and contract owners will be notified in advance. The Fund will pay fees relating to Service Class shares.

 

Administrative services: The Fund has entered into an agreement with ATFS for financial and legal fund administration services, which includes such items as compliance, expenses, financial statements and other reporting, distributions, tax returns, prospectus preparation, board of directors meeting support, transfer agency and other legal matters. The Legal fees on the Statement of Operations are for fees paid to external legal counsel. The Fund paid ATFS $19, for the period ended June 30, 2004.

 

Deferred compensation plan: Each eligible Fund Director may elect participation in the Deferred Compensation Plan for Directors of ATSF (“the Plan”). Under the Plan, such Directors may defer payment of a percentage of their total fees earned as a Fund Director. These deferred

amounts may be invested in any portfolio of Transamerica IDEX Mutual Funds, an affiliate of the Fund. At June 30, 2004, the value of invested plan amounts was $9. Invested plan amounts and the total liability for deferred compensation to the Directors under the Plan at June 30, 2004, are included in Net assets in the accompanying Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE  1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The AEGON/Transamerica Series Fund, Inc. (“ATSF”) is a Maryland corporation registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. ATSF serves as a funding vehicle for variable life insurance, variable annuity and group annuity products. American Century International (“the Fund”), part of ATSF, began operations on January 2, 1997.

 

On May 1, 2003, the Fund acquired all the net assets of Gabelli Global Growth pursuant to a plan of reorganization approved by shareholders of Gabelli Global Growth on April 16, 2003. The acquisition was accomplished by a tax-free exchange of 16,750 shares of the Fund for the 14,424 shares of Gabelli Global Growth outstanding on April 30, 2003. Gabelli Global Growth’s net assets at that date ($98,992), including $(6,335) of unrealized depreciation, were combined with those of the Fund, resulting in combined net assets of $247,331.

 

In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties, which provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote.

 

See the Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information for a description of the Fund’s investment objective.

 

In preparing the Fund’s financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with GAAP.

 

Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers two classes of shares, an Initial Class and a Service Class. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses.

 

Pricing of shares: The Fund prices its shares on the basis of the net asset value of each class of shares of the Fund, which is determined as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) (generally 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time) on each day on which the NYSE is open for trading (other than a day on which there are insufficient changes in the value of the Fund’s portfolio securities to materially affect the Fund’s net asset value or a day on which no shares are tendered for redemption and no order to purchase any shares is received).

Security valuations: Fund investments traded on an exchange are valued at the closing price on the day of valuation on the exchange where the security is principally traded.

 

Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the last quoted bid price.

 

Debt securities are valued by independent pricing services; however, those that mature in sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market.

 

Investment company securities are valued at the net asset value of the underlying portfolio.

 

Foreign securities generally are valued based on quotations from the primary market in which they are traded and are translated from the local currency into U.S. dollars using closing exchange rates. Many foreign securities markets are open for trading at times when the U.S. markets are closed for trading and many foreign securities markets close for trading before the close of the NYSE. The value of foreign securities may be affected significantly on a day that the NYSE is closed and an investor is unable to purchase or redeem shares. If a significant market event impacting the value of a portfolio security (e.g., natural disaster, company announcement, market volatility) occurs subsequent to the close of trading in the security, but prior to the calculation of the Fund’s net asset value per share, market quotations for that security may be determined to be unreliable and, accordingly, not “readily available.” If market quotations are not readily available, and the impact of such a significant market event materially affects the net asset value per share of the Fund, an affected portfolio security will be valued at fair market value as determined in good faith using guidelines adopted by the Board of Directors of the Fund, under the supervision of the Fund’s Valuation Committee. Factors that may be considered to value foreign securities at fair market value may include, among others: the value of other securities traded on other markets, foreign currency exchange activity and the trading of financial products tied to foreign securities.

 

Other securities for which quotations are not readily available also are valued at fair market value as determined in good faith using guidelines established by and under the supervision of the Board of Directors and the Fund’s Valuation Committee. These guidelines may include: the type of security; any restrictions on its resale; financial or business news of the issuer; similar or related securities that are actively trading; related corporate actions; and other significant events occurring after the close of trading in the security.

 

Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investors Bank & Trust Company (“IBT”). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at June 30, 2004, was paying an interest rate of 0.75%.

 

Repurchase agreements: The Fund is authorized to enter into repurchase agreements. The Fund, through IBT, receives delivery of the underlying securities, the value of which at the time of purchase is required to be an amount equal to at least 100% of the resale price.

NOTE  1–(continued)

 

Repurchase agreements involve the risk that the seller will fail to repurchase the security, as agreed. In that case, the Fund will bear the risk of value fluctuations until the security can be sold and may encounter delays and incur costs in liquidating the security. In the event of bankruptcy or insolvency of the seller, delays and costs are incurred.

 

Securities lending: The Fund may lend securities to enhance fund earnings from investing cash collateral received in making such loans to qualified borrowers (typically broker/dealers). The Fund has engaged its custodian bank, IBT, as a lending agent to administer its securities lending program. IBT earned $54 of program net income for its services. When the Fund makes a security loan, it receives cash collateral as protection against the risk that the borrower will default on the loan, and records an asset for the cash invested collateral and a liability for the return of the collateral.

 

Loans of securities are required to be secured by collateral at least equal to 102% of the value of the securities at inception of the loan, and not less then 100% thereafter. The Fund may invest cash collateral in short-term money market instruments including: U.S. Treasury Bills, U.S. agency obligations, commercial paper, money market mutual funds, repurchase agreements and other highly rated, liquid investments. During the life of securities loans, the collateral and securities loaned remain subject to fluctuation in value. IBT marks to market securities loaned and the collateral each business day. If additional collateral is due (at least $1), IBT collects additional cash collateral from the borrowers. Although securities loaned will be fully collateralized at all times, IBT may experience delays in, or may be prevented from, recovering the collateral on behalf of the Fund. The Fund may recall a loaned security position at any time from the borrower through IBT. In the event the borrower fails to timely return a recalled security, IBT may indemnify the Fund by purchasing replacement securities for the Fund at its own expense and claiming the collateral to fund such a purchase. IBT absorbs the loss if the collateral value is not sufficient to cover the cost of the replacement securities. If replacement securities are not available, IBT will credit the equivalent cash value to the Fund.

 

While a security is on loan, the Fund does not have the right to vote that security. However, if time permits, the Fund will attempt to recall a security on loan and vote the proxy.

 

Income from securities lending is included in the Statement of Operations. The amount of collateral and value of securities on loan are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as well as in the Schedule of Investments.

 

Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the first-in, first-out basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex- dividend date or, in the case of foreign securities, as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, including accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis commencing on the settlement date.

 

Foreign currency denominated investments: The accounting records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the closing exchange rate each day. The cost of foreign securities is translated at the exchange rate in effect when the investment was acquired. The Fund combines fluctuations from currency exchange rates and fluctuations in value when computing net realized and unrealized gains or losses from investments.

 

Net foreign currency gains and losses resulting from changes in exchange rates include: 1) foreign currency fluctuations between trade date and settlement date of investment security transactions; 2) gains and losses on forward foreign currency contracts; and 3) the difference between the receivable amounts of interest and dividends recorded in the accounting records in U.S. dollars and the amounts actually received.

 

Foreign currency denominated assets may involve risks not typically associated with domestic transactions, including unanticipated movements in exchange currency rates, the degree of government supervision and regulation of security markets, and the possibility of political or economic instability.

 

Foreign capital gains taxes: The Fund may be subject to taxes imposed by countries in which it invests, with respect to its investment in issuers existing or operating in such countries. Such taxes are generally based on income earned or repatriated and capital gains realized on the sale of such investments. The Fund accrues such taxes when the related income or capital gains are earned. Some countries require governmental approval for the repatriation of investment income, capital or the proceeds of sales earned by foreign investors. In addition, if there is deterioration in a country’s balance of payments or for other reasons, a country may impose temporary restrictions on foreign capital remittances abroad.

 

Forward foreign currency contracts: The Fund may enter into forward foreign currency contracts to hedge against exchange rate risk arising from investments in securities denominated in foreign currencies. Contracts are valued at the contractual forward rate and are marked to market daily, with the change in value recorded as an unrealized gain or loss. When the contracts are closed a realized gain or loss is incurred. Risks may arise from changes in market value of the underlying currencies and from the possible inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts. Open forward currency contracts at June 30, 2004, are listed in the Schedule of Investments.

 

Dividend distributions: Dividend and capital gains distributions are typically declared and reinvested annually and are generally paid and reinvested on the business day following the ex-date.

is the Fund’s administrator and transfer agent. AFSG Securities Corp. (“AFSG”) is the Fund’s distributor. AFSG is 100% owned by AUSA Holding Company (“AUSA”). ATFA is a directly owned subsidiary of

Western Reserve Life Assurance Co. of Ohio (78%) (“WRL”) and AUSA (22%). ATFS is a wholly owned subsidiary of WRL. AUSA and WRL are wholly owned indirect subsidiaries of AEGON NV, a Netherlands corporation.

 

Certain officers and directors of the Fund are also officers and/or directors of ATFA, ATFS, AFSG and WRL. No affiliated officer or director receives any compensation directly from the Fund.

 

The following schedule reflects the percentage of fund assets owned by affiliated mutual funds (i.e. through the asset allocation funds):

 

     Net Assets

   % of
Net Assets


 

Asset Allocation–Growth Portfolio

   $ 17,130    6 %

Asset Allocation–Moderate Growth Portfolio

Select + Growth & Income

     671    0 %
    

  

Total    $ 77,080    26 %
    

  

 

Investment advisory fees: The Fund pays management fees to ATFA based on average daily net assets (“ANA”) at the following breakpoints:

 

1.00% of the first $50 million of ANA

0.95% of the next $100 million of ANA

0.90% of the next $350 million of ANA

0.85% of the next $500 million of ANA

0.80% of ANA over $1 billion

 

ATFA has contractually agreed to waive its advisory fee and will reimburse the Fund to the extent that operating expenses, excluding 12b-1 fees, exceed the following stated annual limit:

 

1.20% Expense Limit

 

If total fund expenses fall below the annual expense limitations agreed to by the adviser within the succeeding three years, the Fund may be required to pay the adviser a portion or all of the waived advisory fees.

 

There are no amounts subject to recapture at June 30, 2004.

 

Distribution and service fees: The Fund adopted a distribution plan (“Distribution Plan”) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Pursuant to the Distribution Plan, ATSF entered into a Distribution Agreement with AFSG effective May 1, 1999.

Under the Distribution Plan and Distribution Agreement on the Initial Class shares, AFSG, on behalf of the Fund, is authorized to pay various service providers, as direct payment for expenses incurred in connection with distribution of the Fund’s shares, amounts equal to actual expenses associated with distributing the shares.

 

The Distribution Plan on the Service Class shares requires ATSF to pay distribution fees to AFSG as compensation for its activities, not as reimbursement for specific expenses. The fee on the Service Class is paid to the insurance companies for providing services and account maintenance for their policyholders who invest in the variable insurance products which invest in the Service Class shares.

 

The Fund is authorized under the 12b-1 plan to pay fees on each class up to the following limits:

 

Initial Class

   0.15%

Service Class

   0.25%

 

AFSG has determined that it will not seek payment by the Fund of the distribution expenses incurred with respect to the Initial Class shares before April 30, 2005. Prior to AFSG seeking reimbursement of future expenses, policy and contract owners will be notified in advance. The Fund will pay fees relating to Service Class shares.

 

Administrative services: The Fund has entered into an agreement with ATFS for financial and legal fund administration services, which includes such items as compliance, expenses, financial statements and other reporting, distributions, tax returns, prospectus preparation, board of directors meeting support, transfer agency and other legal matters. The Legal fees on the Statement of Operations are for fees paid to external legal counsel. The Fund paid ATFS $23 for Administration fees for the period ended June 30, 2004.

 

Brokerage commissions: Brokerage commissions incurred on security transactions placed with an affiliate of the sub-adviser for the period ended June 30, 2004, were $49.

 

Deferred compensation plan: Each eligible Fund Director may elect participation in the Deferred Compensation Plan for Directors of ATSF (“the Plan”). Under the Plan, such Directors may defer payment of a percentage of their total fees earned as a Fund Director. These deferred

amounts may be invested in any portfolio of Transamerica IDEX Mutual Funds, an affiliate of the Fund. At June 30, 2004, the value of invested plan amounts was $11. Invested plan amounts and the total liability for deferred compensation to the Directors under the Plan at June 30, 2004, are included in Net assets in the accompanying Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

NOTE  4. FEDERAL INCOME TAX MATTERS

 

The Fund has not made any provision for federal income taxes due to its policy to distribute all of its taxable income and capital gains to its shareholders and otherwise qualify as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for items including, but not limited to, wash sales, foreign currency transactions, net operating losses and capital loss carryforwards.

 

The capital loss carryforwards are available to offset future realized capital gains through the periods listed:

 

Capital Loss
Carryforward


   Available through

$16,819    December 31, 2009
7,950    December 31, 2010

The Fund has elected to treat the net capital and currency losses incurred in the two month period prior to December 31, 2003 of $434 (Post-October Loss Deferred) as having been incurred in the fiscal year ending December 31, 2004.

 

The aggregate cost of investments and composition of unrealized appreciation (depreciation) for federal income tax purposes as of June 30, 2004, are as follows:

 

Federal Tax Cost Basis

   $   287,900  
    


Unrealized Appreciation

   $ 32,305  

Unrealized (Depreciation)

     (3,139 )
    


Net Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation)

   $ 29,166  
    


 

NOTE  5. OTHER MATTERS

 

ATSF, and certain of its affiliated entities, have received requests for information from the Staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission in connection with market timing and late trading within the funds. ATSF and the affiliated entities have voluntarily cooperated in the investigation and have been providing the information as requested.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

At June 30, 2004

(all amounts in thousands)

(unaudited)

 

NOTE  1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The AEGON/Transamerica Series Fund, Inc. (“ATSF”) is a Maryland corporation registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. ATSF serves as a funding vehicle for variable life insurance, variable annuity and group annuity products. American Century Large Company Value (“the Fund”), part of ATSF, began operations on May 1, 2001.

 

On May 3, 2004, the Fund changed its name from American Century Income & Growth to American Century Large Company Value.

 

In the normal course of business the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties, which provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote.

 

See the Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information for a description of the Fund’s investment objective.

 

In preparing the Fund’s financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with GAAP.

 

Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers two classes of shares, an Initial Class and a Service Class. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses.

 

Pricing of shares: The Fund prices its shares on the basis of the net asset value of each class of shares of the Fund, which is determined as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) (generally 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time) on each day on which the NYSE is open for trading (other than a day on which there are insufficient changes in the value of the Fund’s portfolio securities to materially affect the Fund’s net asset value or a day on which no shares are tendered for redemption and no order to purchase any shares is received).

 

Security valuations: Fund investments traded on an exchange are valued at the closing price on the day of valuation on the exchange where the security is principally traded.

Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the last quoted bid price.

 

Debt securities are valued by independent pricing services; however, those that mature in sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market.

 

Investment company securities are valued at the net asset value of the underlying portfolio.

 

Other securities for which quotations are not readily available also are valued at fair market value as determined in good faith using guidelines established by and under the supervision of the Board of Directors, and the Fund’s Valuation Committee. These guidelines may include: the type of security; any restrictions on its resale; financial or business news of the issuer; similar or related securities that are actively trading; related corporate actions; and other significant events occurring after the close of trading in the security.

 

Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investors Bank & Trust Company (“IBT”). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at June 30, 2004, was paying an interest rate of 0.75%.

 

Repurchase agreements: The Fund is authorized to enter into repurchase agreements. The Fund, through IBT, receives delivery of the underlying securities, the value of which at the time of purchase is required to be an amount equal to at least 100% of the resale price. Repurchase agreements involve the risk that the seller will fail to repurchase the security, as agreed. In that case, the Fund will bear the risk of value fluctuations until the security can be sold and may encounter delays and incur costs in liquidating the security. In the event of bankruptcy or insolvency of the seller, delays and costs are incurred.

 

Securities lending: The Fund may lend securities to enhance fund earnings from investing cash collateral received in making such loans to qualified borrowers (typically broker/dealers). The Fund has engaged its custodian bank, IBT, as a lending agent to administer its securities lending program. IBT earned $2 of program net income for its services. When the Fund makes a security loan, it receives cash collateral as protection against the risk that the borrower will default on the loan, and records an asset for the cash invested collateral and a liability for the return of the collateral.

 

Loans of securities are required to be secured by collateral at least equal to 102% of the value of the securities at inception of the loan, and not less then 100% thereafter. The Fund may invest cash collateral in short-term money market instruments including: U.S. Treasury Bills, U.S. agency obligations, commercial paper, money market mutual funds, repurchase agreements and other highly rated, liquid investments. During the life of securities loans, the collateral and securities loaned remain subject to fluctuation in value. IBT marks to market securities loaned and the collateral each business day. If additional collateral is due (at least $1), IBT collects additional cash collateral from the borrowers. Although securities loaned will be fully collateralized at all

NOTE  1–(continued)

 

times, IBT may experience delays in, or may be prevented from, recovering the collateral on behalf of the Fund. The Fund may recall a loaned security position at any time from the borrower through IBT. In the event the borrower fails to timely return a recalled security, IBT may indemnify the Fund by purchasing replacement securities for the Fund at its own expense and claiming the collateral to fund such a purchase. IBT absorbs the loss if the collateral value is not sufficient to cover the cost of the replacement securities. If replacement securities are not available, IBT will credit the equivalent cash value to the Fund.

 

While a security is on loan, the Fund does not have the right to vote that security. However, if time permits, the Fund will attempt to recall a security on loan and vote the proxy.

 

Income from securities lending is included in the Statement of Operations. The amount of collateral and value of securities on loan are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as well as in the Schedule of Investments.

 

Real Estate Investment Trusts (“REITs”): There are certain additional risks involved in investing in REITs. These include, but are not limited to, economic conditions, changes in zoning laws, real estate values, property taxes and interest rates.

 

Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the first-in, first-out basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, in the case of foreign securities, as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, including accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis commencing on the settlement date.

 

Dividend distributions: Dividend and capital gains distributions are typically declared and reinvested annually and are generally paid and reinvested on the business day following the ex-date.

Under the Distribution Plan and Distribution Agreement on the Initial Class shares, AFSG, on behalf of the Fund, is authorized to pay various service providers, as direct payment for expenses incurred in connection with distribution of the Fund’s shares, amounts equal to actual expenses associated with distributing the shares.

 

The Distribution Plan on the Service Class shares requires ATSF to pay distribution fees to AFSG as compensation for its activities, not as reimbursement for specific expenses. The fee on the Service Class is paid to the insurance companies for providing services and account maintenance for their policyholders who invest in the variable insurance products which invest in the Service Class shares.

 

The Fund is authorized under the 12b-1 plan to pay fees on each class up to the following limits:

 

Initial Class

   0.15%

Service Class

   0.25%

 

AFSG has determined that it will not seek payment by the Fund of the distribution expenses incurred with respect to the Initial Class shares before April 30, 2005. Prior to AFSG seeking reimbursement of future expenses, policy and contract owners will be notified in advance. The Fund will pay fees relating to Service Class shares.

 

Administrative services: The Fund has entered into an agreement with ATFS for financial and legal fund administration services, which includes such items as compliance, expenses, financial statements and other reporting, distributions, tax returns, prospectus preparation, board of directors meeting support, transfer agency and other legal matters. The Legal fees on the Statement of Operations are for fees paid to external legal counsel. The Fund paid ATFS $5 for Administration fees for the period ended June 30, 2004.

NOTE  1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The AEGON/Transamerica Series Fund, Inc. (“ATSF”) is a Maryland corporation registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. ATSF serves as a funding vehicle for variable life insurance, variable annuity and group annuity products. Asset Allocation–Conservative Portfolio (“the Fund”), part of ATSF, began operations on May 1, 2002.

 

In the normal course of business the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties, which provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote.

 

See the Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information for a description of the Fund’s investment objective.

 

In preparing the Fund’s financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with GAAP.

 

Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers two classes of shares, an Initial Class and a Service Class. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses.

 

Pricing of shares: The Fund prices its shares on the basis of the net asset value of each class of shares of the Fund, which is determined as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) (generally 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time) on each day on which the NYSE is open for trading (other than a day on which there are insufficient changes in the value of the Fund’s portfolio securities to materially affect the Fund’s net asset value or a day on which no shares are tendered for redemption and no order to purchase any shares is received).

 

Security valuations: The Fund’s investments are valued at the net asset values of the underlying portfolios of ATSF. The net asset values of the underlying portfolios are determined at the close of the NYSE (generally 4:00 p.m. eastern time) on the valuation date.

 

Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the first-in, first-out basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Dividends and net realized gain (loss) from investment securities for the Fund are from investments in shares of affiliated investment companies.

 

Dividend distributions: Dividend and capital gains distributions are typically declared and reinvested annually and are generally paid and reinvested on the business day following the ex-date.

 

NOTE  2. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

 

AEGON/Transamerica Fund Advisers, Inc. (“ATFA”) is the Fund’s investment adviser. AEGON/Transamerica Fund Services, Inc. (“ATFS”) is the Fund’s administrator and transfer agent. AFSG Securities Corp. (“AFSG”) is the Fund’s distributor. AFSG is 100% owned by AUSA Holding Company (“AUSA”). ATFA is a directly owned subsidiary of Western Reserve Life Assurance Co. of Ohio (78%) (“WRL”) and AUSA (22%). ATFS is a wholly owned subsidiary of WRL. AUSA and WRL are wholly owned indirect subsidiaries of AEGON NV, a Netherlands corporation.

 

ATFA has entered into an agreement with Morningstar Associates, LLC to provide investment services to the Fund. ATFA compensates Morningstar Associates, LLC as described in the Prospectus.

 

Transamerica Investment Management, LLC and Great Companies, LLC are affiliates of the Fund and are sub-advisers to other funds within ATSF.

 

Certain officers and directors of the Fund are also officers and/or directors of ATFA, ATFS, AFSG and WRL. No affiliated officer or director receives any compensation directly from the Fund.

 

Investment advisory fees: The Fund pays management fees to ATFA based on average daily net assets (“ANA”) at the following rate:

 

0.10% of ANA

 

ATFA has contractually agreed to waive its advisory fee and will reimburse the Fund to the extent that operating expenses, excluding 12b-1 fees, exceed the following stated annual limit:

 

0.25% Expense Limit

 

If total fund expenses fall below the annual expense limitations agreed to by the adviser within the succeeding three years, the Fund may be required to pay the adviser a portion or all of the waived advisory fees.

 

There are no amounts subject to recapture at June 30, 2004.

 

Distribution and service fees: The Fund adopted a distribution plan (“Distribution Plan”) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Pursuant to the Distribution Plan, ATSF entered into a Distribution Agreement with AFSG effective May 1, 1999.

 

Under the Distribution Plan and Distribution Agreement on the Initial Class shares, AFSG, on behalf of the Fund, is authorized to pay various

NOTE  2–(continued)

 

service providers, as direct payment for expenses incurred in connection with distribution of the Fund’s shares, amounts equal to actual expenses associated with distributing the shares.

 

The Distribution Plan on the Service Class shares requires ATSF to pay distribution fees to AFSG as compensation for its activities, not as reimbursement for specific expenses. The fee on the Service Class is paid to the insurance companies for providing services and account maintenance for their policyholders who invest in the variable insurance products which invest in the Service Class shares.

 

The Fund is authorized under the 12b-1 plan to pay fees on each class up to the following limits:

 

Initial Class

   0.15%

Service Class

   0.25%

 

AFSG has determined that it will not seek payment by the Fund of the distribution expenses incurred with respect to the Initial Class shares before April 30, 2005. Prior to AFSG seeking reimbursement of future expenses, policy and contract owners will be notified in advance. The Fund will pay fees relating to Service Class shares.

 

Administrative services: The Fund has entered into an agreement with ATFS for financial and legal fund administration services, which includes such items as compliance, expenses, financial statements and other reporting, distributions, tax returns, prospectus preparation, board of directors meeting support, transfer agency and other legal matters. The Legal fees on the Statement of Operations are for fees paid to external legal counsel. The Fund paid ATFS $38 for Administration fees for the period ended June 30, 2004.

 

Deferred compensation plan: Each eligible Fund Director may elect participation in the Deferred Compensation Plan for Directors of ATSF (“the Plan”). Under the Plan, such Directors may defer payment of a percentage of their total fees earned as a Fund Director. These deferred amounts may be invested in any portfolio of Transamerica IDEX Mutual Funds, an affiliate of the Fund. At June 30, 2004, the value of invested plan amounts was $20. Invested plan amounts and the total liability for deferred compensation to the Directors under the Plan at June 30, 2004, are included in Net assets in the accompanying Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

 

NOTE  3. INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS

 

The cost of securities purchased and proceeds from securities sold (excluding short-term securities) for the period ended June 30, 2004, were as follows:

     52,529

U.S. Government

    

 

NOTE  4. FEDERAL INCOME TAX MATTERS

 

The Fund has not made any provision for federal income taxes due to its policy to distribute all of its taxable income and capital gains to its shareholders and otherwise qualify as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for items including, but not limited to, wash sales, and capital loss carryforwards.

 

The aggregate cost of investments and composition of unrealized appreciation (depreciation) for federal income tax purposes as of June 30, 2004, are as follows:

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

At June 30, 2004

(all amounts in thousands)

(unaudited)

 

NOTE  1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The AEGON/Transamerica Series Fund, Inc. (“ATSF”) is a Maryland corporation registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. ATSF serves as a funding vehicle for variable life insurance, variable annuity and group annuity products. Asset Allocation–Growth Portfolio (“the Fund”), part of ATSF, began operations on May 1, 2002.

 

In the normal course of business the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties, which provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote.

 

See the Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information for a description of the Fund’s investment objective.

 

In preparing the Fund’s financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with GAAP.

 

Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers two classes of shares, an Initial Class and a Service Class. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses.

 

Pricing of shares: The Fund prices its shares on the basis of the net asset value of each class of shares of the Fund, which is determined as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) (generally 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time) on each day on which the NYSE is open for trading (other than a day on which there are insufficient changes in the value of the Fund’s portfolio securities to materially affect the Fund’s net asset value or a day on which no shares are tendered for redemption and no order to purchase any shares is received).

 

Security valuations: The Fund’s investments are valued at the net asset values of the underlying portfolios of ATSF. The net asset values of the underlying portfolios are determined at the close of the NYSE (generally 4:00 p.m. eastern time) on the valuation date.

Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the first-in, first-out basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Dividends and net realized gain (loss) from investment securities for the Fund are from investments in shares of affiliated investment companies.

 

Dividend distributions: Dividend and capital gains distributions are typically declared and reinvested annually and are generally paid and reinvested on the business day following the ex-date.

 

NOTE  2. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

 

AEGON/Transamerica Fund Advisers, Inc. (“ATFA”) is the Fund’s investment adviser. AEGON/Transamerica Fund Services, Inc. (“ATFS”) is the Fund’s administrator and transfer agent. AFSG Securities Corp. (“AFSG”) is the Fund’s distributor. AFSG is 100% owned by AUSA Holding Company (“AUSA”). ATFA is a directly owned subsidiary of Western Reserve Life Assurance Co. of Ohio (78%) (“WRL”) and AUSA (22%). ATFS is a wholly owned subsidiary of WRL. AUSA and WRL are wholly owned indirect subsidiaries of AEGON NV, a Netherlands corporation.

 

ATFA has entered into an agreement with Morningstar Associates, LLC to provide investment services to the Fund. ATFA compensates Morningstar Associates, LLC as described in the Prospectus.

 

Transamerica Investment Management, LLC and Great Companies, LLC are affiliates of the Fund and are sub-advisers to other funds within ATSF.

 

Certain officers and directors of the Fund are also officers and/or directors of ATFA, ATFS, AFSG and WRL. No affiliated officer or director receives any compensation directly from the Fund.

 

Investment advisory fees: The Fund pays management fees to ATFA based on average daily net assets (“ANA”) at the following rate:

 

0.10% of ANA

 

ATFA has contractually agreed to waive its advisory fee and will reimburse the Fund to the extent that operating expenses, excluding 12b-1 fees, exceed the following stated annual limit:

 

0.25% Expense Limit

 

If total fund expenses fall below the annual expense limitations agreed to by the adviser within the succeeding three years, the Fund may be required to pay the adviser a portion or all of the waived advisory fees.

 

There are no amounts subject to recapture at June 30, 2004.

 

Distribution and service fees: The Fund adopted a distribution plan (“Distribution Plan”) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Pursuant to the Distribution Plan, ATSF entered into a Distribution Agreement with AFSG effective May 1, 1999.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

At June 30, 2004

(all amounts in thousands)

(unaudited)

 

NOTE  2–(continued)

 

Under the Distribution Plan and Distribution Agreement on the Initial Class shares, AFSG, on behalf of the Fund, is authorized to pay various service providers, as direct payment for expenses incurred in connection with distribution of the Fund’s shares, amounts equal to actual expenses associated with distributing the shares.

 

The Distribution Plan on the Service Class shares requires ATSF to pay distribution fees to AFSG as compensation for its activities, not as reimbursement for specific expenses. The fee on the Service Class is paid to the insurance companies for providing services and account maintenance for their policyholders who invest in the variable insurance products which invest in the Service Class shares.

 

The Fund is authorized under the 12b-1 plan to pay fees on each class up to the following limits:

 

Initial Class

   0.15%

Service Class

   0.25%

 

AFSG has determined that it will not seek payment by the Fund of the distribution expenses incurred with respect to the Initial Class shares before April 30, 2005. Prior to AFSG seeking reimbursement of future expenses, policy and contract owners will be notified in advance. The Fund will pay fees relating to Service Class shares.

 

Administrative services: The Fund has entered into an agreement with ATFS for financial and legal fund administration services, which includes such items as compliance, expenses, financial statements and other reporting, distributions, tax returns, prospectus preparation, board of directors meeting support, transfer agency and other legal matters. The Legal fees on the Statement of Operations are for fees paid to external legal counsel. The Fund paid ATFS $45 for Administration fees for the period ended June 30, 2004.

 

Deferred compensation plan: Each eligible Fund Director may elect participation in the Deferred Compensation Plan for Directors of ATSF (“the Plan”). Under the Plan, such Directors may defer payment of a percentage of their total fees earned as a Fund Director. These deferred amounts may be invested in any portfolio of Transamerica IDEX Mutual Funds, an affiliate of the Fund. At June 30, 2004, the value of invested plan amounts was $26. Invested plan amounts and the total liability for deferred compensation to the Directors under the Plan at June 30, 2004, are included in Net assets in the accompanying Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

 

NOTE  3. INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS

 

The cost of securities purchased and proceeds from securities sold (excluding short-term securities) for the period ended June 30, 2004, were as follows:

 

Purchases of securities:

      

Long-Term excluding U.S. Government

   $   155,361

U.S. Government

    

Proceeds from maturities and sales of securities:

      

Long-Term excluding U.S. Government

     10,437

U.S. Government

    

 

NOTE  4. FEDERAL INCOME TAX MATTERS

 

The Fund has not made any provision for federal income taxes due to its policy to distribute all of its taxable income and capital gains to its shareholders and otherwise qualify as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for items including, but not limited to, wash sales, and capital loss carryforwards.

 

The aggregate cost of investments and composition of unrealized appreciation (depreciation) for federal income tax purposes as of June 30, 2004, are as follows:

 

Federal Tax Cost Basis

   $   571,523  
    


Unrealized Appreciation

   $ 116,850  

Unrealized (Depreciation)

     (12 )
    


Net Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation)

   $ 116,838  
    


 

NOTE  5. OTHER MATTERS

 

ATSF, and certain of its affiliated entities, have received requests for information from the Staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission in connection with market timing and late trading within the funds. ATSF and the affiliated entities have voluntarily cooperated in the investigation and have been providing the information as requested.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

At June 30, 2004

(all amounts in thousands)

(unaudited)

 

NOTE  1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The AEGON/Transamerica Series Fund, Inc. (“ATSF”) is a Maryland corporation registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. ATSF serves as a funding vehicle for variable life insurance, variable annuity and group annuity products. Asset Allocation– Moderate Portfolio (“the Fund”), part of ATSF, began operations on May 1, 2002.

 

In the normal course of business the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties, which provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote.

 

See the Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information for a description of the Fund’s investment objective.

 

In preparing the Fund’s financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with GAAP.

 

Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers two classes of shares, an Initial Class and a Service Class. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses.

 

Pricing of shares: The Fund prices its shares on the basis of the net asset value of each class of shares of the Fund, which is determined as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) (generally 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time) on each day on which the NYSE is open for trading (other than a day on which there are insufficient changes in the value of the Fund’s portfolio securities to materially affect the Fund’s net asset value or a day on which no shares are tendered for redemption and no order to purchase any shares is received).

 

Security valuations: The Fund’s investments are valued at the net asset values of the underlying portfolios of ATSF. The net asset values of the underlying portfolios are determined at the close of the NYSE (generally 4:00 p.m. eastern time) on the valuation date.

Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the first-in, first-out basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Dividends and net realized gain (loss) from investment securities for the Fund are from investments in shares of affiliated investment companies.

 

Dividend distributions: Dividend and capital gains distributions are typically declared and reinvested annually and are generally paid and reinvested on the business day following the ex-date.

 

NOTE  2. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

 

AEGON/Transamerica Fund Advisers, Inc. (“ATFA”) is the Fund’s investment adviser. AEGON/Transamerica Fund Services, Inc. (“ATFS”) is the Fund’s administrator and transfer agent. AFSG Securities Corp. (“AFSG”) is the Fund’s distributor. AFSG is 100% owned by AUSA Holding Company (“AUSA”). ATFA is a directly owned subsidiary of Western Reserve Life Assurance Co. of Ohio (78%) (“WRL”) and AUSA (22%). ATFS is a wholly owned subsidiary of WRL. AUSA and WRL are wholly owned indirect subsidiaries of AEGON NV, a Netherlands corporation.

 

ATFA has entered into an agreement with Morningstar Associates, LLC to provide investment services to the Fund. ATFA compensates Morningstar Associates, LLC as described in the Prospectus.

 

Transamerica Investment Management, LLC and Great Companies, LLC are affiliates of the Fund and are sub-advisers to other funds within ATSF.

 

Certain officers and directors of the Fund are also officers and/or directors of ATFA, ATFS, AFSG and WRL. No affiliated officer or director receives any compensation directly from the Fund.

 

Investment advisory fees: The Fund pays management fees to ATFA based on average daily net assets (“ANA”) at the following rate:

 

0.10% of ANA

 

ATFA has contractually agreed to waive its advisory fee and will reimburse the Fund to the extent that operating expenses, excluding 12b-1 fees, exceed the following stated annual limit:

 

0.25% Expense Limit

 

If total fund expenses fall below the annual expense limitations agreed to by the adviser within the succeeding three years, the Fund may be required to pay the adviser a portion or all of the waived advisory fees.

 

There are no amounts subject to recapture at June 30, 2004.

 

Distributions and service fees: The Fund adopted a distribution plan (“Distribution Plan”) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Pursuant to the Distribution Plan, À entered into a Distribution Agreement with AFSG effective May 1, 1999.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

At June 30, 2004

(all amounts in thousands)

(unaudited)

 

NOTE  2–(continued)

 

Under the Distribution Plan and Distribution Agreement on the Initial Class shares, AFSG, on behalf of the Fund, is authorized to pay various service providers, as direct payment for expenses incurred in connection with distribution of the Fund’s shares, amounts equal to actual expenses associated with distributing the shares.

 

The Distribution Plan on the Service Class shares requires ATSF to pay distribution fees to AFSG as compensation for its activities, not as reimbursement for specific expenses. The fee on the Service Class is paid to the insurance companies for providing services and account maintenance for their policyholders who invest in the variable insurance products which invest in the Service Class shares.

 

The Fund is authorized under the 12b-1 plan to pay fees on each class up to the following limits:

 

Initial Class

   0.15%

Service Class

   0.25%

 

AFSG has determined that it will not seek payment by the Fund of the distribution expenses incurred with respect to the Initial Class shares before April 30, 2005. Prior to AFSG seeking reimbursement of future expenses, policy and contract owners will be notified in advance. The Fund will pay fees relating to Service Class shares.

 

Administrative services: The Fund has entered into an agreement with ATFS for financial and legal fund administration services, which includes such items as compliance, expenses, financial statements and other reporting, distributions, tax returns, prospectus preparation, board of directors meeting support, transfer agency and other legal matters. The Legal fees on the Statement of Operations are for fees paid to external legal counsel. The Fund paid ATFS $96 for Administration fees for the period ended June 30, 2004.

 

Deferred compensation plan: Each eligible Fund Director may elect participation in the Deferred Compensation Plan for Directors of ATSF (“the Plan”). Under the Plan, such Directors may defer payment of a percentage of their total fees earned as a Fund Director. These deferred amounts may be invested in any portfolio of Transamerica IDEX Mutual Funds, an affiliate of the Fund. At June 30, 2004, the value of invested plan amounts was $56. Invested plan amounts and the total liability for deferred compensation to the Directors under the Plan at June 30, 2004, are included in Net assets in the accompanying Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

 

NOTE  3. INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS

 

The cost of securities purchased and proceeds from securities sold (excluding short-term securities) for the period ended June 30, 2004, were as follows:

 

Purchases of securities:

      

Long-Term excluding U.S. Government

   $   139,074

     0

Proceeds from maturities and sales of securities:

      

Long-Term excluding U.S. Government

     5,384

U.S. Government

     0

 

NOTE  4. FEDERAL INCOME TAX MATTERS

 

The Fund has not made any provision for federal income taxes due to its policy to distribute all of its taxable income and capital gains to its shareholders and otherwise qualify as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for items including, but not limited to, wash sales, and capital loss carryforwards.

 

The aggregate cost of investments and composition of unrealized appreciation (depreciation) for federal income tax purposes as of June 30, 2004, are as follows:

 

Federal Tax Cost Basis

   $   1,139,345
    

Unrealized Appreciation

   $ 237,009

Unrealized (Depreciation)

NOTE  5. OTHER MATTERS

ATSF and the affiliated entities have voluntarily cooperated in the investigation and have been providing the information as requested.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

At June 30, 2004

(all amounts in thousands)

(unaudited)

 

NOTE  1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The AEGON/Transamerica Series Fund, Inc. (“ATSF”) is a Maryland corporation registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. ATSF serves as a funding vehicle for variable life insurance, variable annuity and group annuity products. Asset Allocation–Moderate Growth Portfolio (“the Fund”), part of ATSF, began operations on May 1, 2002.

 

In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties, which provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote.

 

See the Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information for a description of the Fund’s investment objective.

 

In preparing the Fund’s financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with GAAP.

 

Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers two classes of shares, an Initial Class and a Service Class. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses.

 

Pricing of shares: The Fund prices its shares on the basis of the net asset value of each class of shares of the Fund, which is determined as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) (generally 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time) on each day on which the NYSE is open for trading (other than a day on which there are insufficient changes in the value of the Fund’s portfolio securities to materially affect the Fund’s net asset value or a day on which no shares are tendered for redemption and no order to purchase any shares is received).

 

Security valuations: The Fund’s investments are valued at the net asset values of the underlying portfolios of ATSF. The net asset values of the underlying portfolios are determined at the close of the NYSE (generally 4:00 p.m. eastern time) on the valuation date.

 

Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the first-in, first-out basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Dividends and net realized gain (loss) from investment securities for the Fund are from investments in shares of affiliated investment companies.

 

Dividend distributions: Dividend and capital gains distributions are typically declared and reinvested annually and are generally paid and reinvested on the business day following the ex-date.

 

NOTE  2. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

 

AEGON/Transamerica Fund Advisers, Inc. (“ATFA”) is the Fund’s investment adviser. AEGON/Transamerica Fund Services, Inc. (“ATFS”) is the Fund’s administrator and transfer agent. AFSG Securities Corp. (“AFSG”) is the Fund’s distributor. AFSG is 100% owned by AUSA Holding Company (“AUSA”). ATFA is a directly owned subsidiary of Western Reserve Life Assurance Co. of Ohio (78%) (“WRL”) and AUSA (22%). ATFS is a wholly owned subsidiary of WRL. AUSA and WRL are wholly owned indirect subsidiaries of AEGON NV, a Netherlands corporation.

 

ATFA has entered into an agreement with Morningstar Associates, LLC to provide investment services to the Fund. ATFA compensates Morningstar Associates, LLC as described in the Prospectus.

 

Transamerica Investment Management, LLC and Great Companies, LLC are affiliates of the Fund and are sub-advisers to other funds within ATSF.

 

Certain officers and directors of the Fund are also officers and/or directors of ATFA, ATFS, AFSG and WRL. No affiliated officer or director receives any compensation directly from the Fund.

 

Investment advisory fees: The Fund pays management fees to ATFA based on average daily net assets (“ANA”) at the following rate:

 

0.10% of ANA

 

ATFA has contractually agreed to waive its advisory fee and will reimburse the Fund to the extent that operating expenses, excluding 12b-1 fees, exceed the following stated annual limit:

 

0.25% Expense Limit

 

If total fund expenses fall below the annual expense limitations agreed to by the adviser within the succeeding three years, the Fund may be required to pay the adviser a portion or all of the waived advisory fees.

 

There are no amounts subject to recapture at June 30, 2004.

 

Distribution and service fees: The Fund adopted a distribution plan (“Distribution Plan”) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Pursuant to the Distribution Plan, ATSF entered into a Distribution Agreement with AFSG effective May 1, 1999.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

At June 30, 2004

(all amounts in thousands)

(unaudited)

 

NOTE  2–(continued)

 

Under the Distribution Plan and Distribution Agreement on the Initial Class shares, AFSG, on behalf of the Fund, is authorized to pay various service providers, as direct payment for expenses incurred in connection with distribution of the Fund’s shares, amounts equal to actual expenses associated with distributing the shares.

 

The Distribution Plan on the Service Class shares requires ATSF to pay distribution fees to AFSG as compensation for its activities, not as reimbursement for specific expenses. The fee on the Service Class is paid to the insurance companies for providing services and account maintenance for their policyholders who invest in the variable insurance products which invest in the Service Class shares.

 

The Fund is authorized under the 12b-1 plan to pay fees on each class up to the following limits:

 

Initial Class

   0.15%

Service Class

   0.25%

 

AFSG has determined that it will not seek payment by the Fund of the distribution expenses incurred with respect to the Initial Class shares before April 30, 2005. Prior to AFSG seeking reimbursement of future expenses, policy and contract owners will be notified in advance. The Fund will pay fees relating to Service Class shares.

 

Administrative services: The Fund has entered into an agreement with ATFS for financial and legal fund administration services, which includes such items as compliance, expenses, financial statements and other reporting, distributions, tax returns, prospectus preparation, board of directors meeting support, transfer agency and other legal matters. The Legal fees on the Statement of Operations are for fees paid to external legal counsel. The Fund paid ATFS $99 for Administration fees for the period ended June 30, 2004.

 

Deferred compensation plan: Each eligible Fund Director may elect participation in the Deferred Compensation Plan for Directors of ATSF (“the Plan”). Under the Plan, such Directors may defer payment of a percentage of their total fees earned as a Fund Director. These deferred amounts may be invested in any portfolio of Transamerica IDEX Mutual Funds, an affiliate of the Fund. At June 30, 2004, the value of invested plan amounts was $56. Invested plan amounts and the total liability for deferred compensation to the Directors under the Plan at June 30, 2004, are included in Net assets in the accompanying Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

 

NOTE  3. INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS

 

The cost of securities purchased and proceeds from securities sold (excluding short-term securities) for the period ended June 30, 2004, were as follows:

 

Purchases of securities:

      

Long-Term excluding U.S. Government

   $   225,763

U.S. Government

    

Proceeds from maturities and sales of securities:

      

Long-Term excluding U.S. Government

     23,951

U.S. Government

    

 

NOTE  4. FEDERAL INCOME TAX MATTERS

 

The Fund has not made any provision for federal income taxes due to its policy to distribute all of its taxable income and capital gains to its shareholders and otherwise qualify as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for items including, but not limited to, wash sales, and capital loss carryforwards.

 

The aggregate cost of investments and composition of unrealized appreciation (depreciation) for federal income tax purposes as of June 30, 2004, are as follows:

 

Federal Tax Cost Basis

   $   1,209,822
    

Unrealized Appreciation

   $ 253,296

Unrealized (Depreciation)

     0
    

Net Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation)

   $ 253,296
    

 

NOTE  5. OTHER MATTERS

 

ATSF, and certain of its affiliated entities, have received requests for information from the Staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission in connection with market timing and late trading within the funds. ATSF and the affiliated entities have voluntarily cooperated in the investigation and have been providing the information as requested.

Capital Guardian Global (“the Fund”), part of ATSF, began operations as part of the Endeavor Series Trust, on February 3, 1998. The Fund became part of ATSF on May 1, 2002.

 

In the normal course of business the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties, which provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote.

 

See the Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information for a description of the Fund’s investment objective.

 

In preparing the Fund’s financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with GAAP.

 

Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers two classes of shares, an Initial Class and a Service Class. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses.

 

Pricing of shares: The Fund prices its shares on the basis of the net asset value of each class of shares of the Fund, which is determined as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) (generally 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time) on each day on which the NYSE is open for trading (other than a day on which there are insufficient changes in the value of the Fund’s portfolio securities to materially affect the Fund’s net asset value or a day on which no shares are tendered for redemption and no order to purchase any shares is received).

 

Security valuations: Fund investments traded on an exchange are valued at the closing price on the day of valuation on the exchange where the security is principally traded.

 

Debt securities are valued by independent pricing services; however, those that mature in sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market.

Investment company securities are valued at the net asset value of the underlying portfolio.

 

Foreign securities generally are valued based on quotations from the primary market in which they are traded and are translated from the local currency into U.S. dollars using closing exchange rates. Many foreign securities markets are open for trading at times when the U.S. markets are closed for trading and many foreign securities markets close for trading before the close of the NYSE. The value of foreign securities may be affected significantly on a day that the NYSE is closed and an investor is unable to purchase or redeem shares. If a significant market event impacting the value of a portfolio security (e.g., natural disaster, company announcement, market volatility) occurs subsequent to the close of trading in the security, but prior to the calculation of the Fund’s net asset value per share, market quotations for that security may be determined to be unreliable and, accordingly, not “readily available.” If market quotations are not readily available, and the impact of such a significant market event materially affects the net asset value per share of the Fund, an affected portfolio security will be valued at fair market value as determined in good faith using guidelines adopted by the Board of Directors of the Fund, under the supervision of the Fund’s Valuation Committee. Factors that may be considered to value foreign securities at fair market value may include, among others: the value of other securities traded on other markets, foreign currency exchange activity and the trading of financial products tied to foreign securities.

 

Other securities for which quotations are not readily available also are valued at fair market value as determined in good faith using guidelines established by and under the supervision of the Board of Directors, and the Fund’s Valuation Committee. These guidelines may include: the type of security; any restrictions on its resale; financial or business news of the issuer; similar or related securities that are actively trading; related corporate actions; and other significant events occurring after the close of trading in the security.

 

Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investors Bank & Trust Company (“IBT”). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at June 30, 2004, was paying an interest rate of 0.75%.

 

Repurchase agreements: The Fund is authorized to enter into repurchase agreements. The Fund, through IBT, receives delivery of the underlying securities, the value of which at the time of purchase is required to be an amount equal to at least 100% of the resale price. Repurchase agreements involve the risk that the seller will fail to repurchase the security, as agreed. In that case, the Fund will bear the risk of value fluctuations until the security can be sold and may encounter delays and incur costs in liquidating the security. In the event of bankruptcy or insolvency of the seller, delays and costs are incurred.

 

Directed brokerage: The sub-adviser, to the extent consistent with the best execution and usual commission rate policies and practices, may place security transactions of the Fund with broker/dealers with which ATSF has established a Directed Brokerage Program. A Directed Brokerage Program is any arrangement under which a broker/dealer

applies a portion of the commissions received by such broker/dealer on the security transactions to the Fund. In no event will commissions paid by the Fund be used to pay expenses that would otherwise be borne by any other funds within ATSF, or by any other party. Directed commissions for the period ended June 30, 2004, of $53 are included in net realized gains in the Statement of Operations.

 

Securities lending: The Fund may lend securities to enhance fund earnings from investing cash collateral received in making such loans to qualified borrowers (typically broker/dealers). The Fund has engaged its custodian bank, IBT, as a lending agent to administer its securities lending program. IBT earned $37 of program net income for its services. When the Fund makes a security loan, it receives cash collateral as protection against the risk that the borrower will default on the loan, and records an asset for the cash invested collateral and a liability for the return of the collateral.

 

Loans of securities are required to be secured by collateral at least equal to 102% of the value of the securities at inception of the loan, and not less then 100% thereafter. The Fund may invest cash collateral in short-term money market instruments including: U.S. Treasury Bills, U.S. agency obligations, commercial paper, money market mutual funds, repurchase agreements and other highly rated, liquid investments. During the life of securities loans, the collateral and securities loaned remain subject to fluctuation in value. IBT marks to market securities loaned and the collateral each business day. If additional collateral is due (at least $1), IBT collects additional cash collateral from the borrowers. Although securities loaned will be fully collateralized at all times, IBT may experience delays in, or may be prevented from, recovering the collateral on behalf of the Fund. The Fund may recall a loaned security position at any time from the borrower through IBT. In the event the borrower fails to timely return a recalled security, IBT may indemnify the Fund by purchasing replacement securities for the Fund at its own expense and claiming the collateral to fund such a purchase. IBT absorbs the loss if the collateral value is not sufficient to cover the cost of the replacement securities. If replacement securities are not available, IBT will credit the equivalent cash value to the Fund.

 

While a security is on loan, the Fund does not have the right to vote that security. However, if time permits, the Fund will attempt to recall a security on loan and vote the proxy.

 

Income from securities lending is included in the Statement of Operations. The amount of collateral and value of securities on loan are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as well as in the Schedule of Investments.

 

Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the first-in, first-out basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex- dividend date or, in the case of foreign securities, as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, including accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis commencing on the settlement date.

 

Foreign currency denominated investments: The accounting records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the closing exchange rate each day. The cost of foreign securities is translated at the exchange rate in effect when the investment was acquired. The Fund combines fluctuations from currency exchange rates and fluctuations in value when computing net realized and unrealized gains or losses from investments.

 

Net foreign currency gains and losses resulting from changes in exchange rates include: 1) foreign currency fluctuations between trade date and settlement date of investment security transactions; 2) gains and losses on forward foreign currency contracts; and 3) the difference between the receivable amounts of interest and dividends recorded in the accounting records in U.S. dollars and the amounts actually received.

 

Foreign currency denominated assets may involve risks not typically associated with domestic transactions, including unanticipated movements in exchange currency rates, the degree of government supervision and regulation of security markets, and the possibility of political or economic instability.

 

Foreign capital gains taxes: The Fund may be subject to taxes imposed by countries in which it invests, with respect to its investment in issuers existing or operating in such countries. Such taxes are generally based on income earned or repatriated and capital gains realized on the sale of such investments. The Fund accrues such taxes when the related income or capital gains are earned. Some countries require governmental approval for the repatriation of investment income, capital or the proceeds of sales earned by foreign investors. In addition, if there is deterioration in a country’s balance of payments or for other reasons, a country may impose temporary restrictions on foreign capital remittances abroad.

 

Forward foreign currency contracts: The Fund may enter into forward foreign currency contracts to hedge against exchange rate risk arising from investments in securities denominated in foreign currencies. Contracts are valued at the contractual forward rate and are marked to market daily, with the change in value recorded as an unrealized gain or loss. When the contracts are closed a realized gain or loss is incurred. Risks may arise from changes in market value of the underlying currencies and from the possible inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts. Open forward currency contracts at June 30, 2004, are listed in the Schedule of Investments.

 

Dividend distributions: Dividend and capital gains distributions are typically declared and reinvested annually and are generally paid and reinvested on the business day following the ex-date.

by AUSA Holding Company (“AUSA”). ATFA is a directly owned subsidiary of Western Reserve Life Assurance Co. of Ohio (78%) (“WRL”) and AUSA (22%). ATFS is a wholly owned subsidiary of WRL. AUSA and WRL are wholly owned indirect subsidiaries of AEGON NV, a Netherlands corporation.

 

Certain officers and directors of the Fund are also officers and/or directors of ATFA, ATFS, AFSG and WRL. No affiliated officer or director receives any compensation directly from the Fund.

 

The following schedule reflects the percentage of fund assets owned by affiliated mutual funds (i.e. through the asset allocation funds):

 

     Net Assets

   $ 192,065    52 %
    

  

 

Investment advisory fees: The Fund pays management fees to ATFA based on average daily net assets (“ANA”) at the following breakpoints:

 

1.05% of the first $150 million

1.00% of the next $150 million

0.95% of the next $200 million

0.925% of ANA over $500 million

 

ATFA has contractually agreed to waive its advisory fee and will reimburse the Fund to the extent that operating expenses, excluding 12b-1 fees, exceed the following stated annual limit:

 

1.32% Expense Limit

 

If total Fund expenses fall below the annual expense limitations agreed to by the adviser within the succeeding three years, the Fund may be required to pay the adviser a portion or all of the waived advisory fees.

 

There are no amounts subject to recapture at June 30, 2004.

 

Distribution and service fees: The Fund adopted a distribution plan (“Distribution Plan”) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Pursuant to the Distribution Plan, ATSF entered into a Distribution Agreement with AFSG effective May 1, 1999.

 

Under the Distribution Plan and Distribution Agreement on the Initial Class shares, AFSG, on behalf of the Fund, is authorized to pay various service providers, as direct payment for expenses incurred in connection with distribution of the Fund’s shares, amounts equal to actual expenses associated with distributing the shares.

 

The Distribution Plan on the Service Class shares requires ATSF to pay distribution fees to AFSG as compensation for its activities, not as reimbursement for specific expenses. The fee on the Service Class is paid to the insurance companies for providing services and account maintenance for their policyholders who invest in the variable insurance products which invest in the Service Class shares.

 

The Fund is authorized under the 12b-1 plan to pay fees on each class up to the following limits:

 

Initial Class

   0.15%

Service Class

   0.25%

 

AFSG has determined that it will not seek payment by the Fund of the distribution expenses incurred with respect to the Initial Class shares before April 30, 2005. Prior to AFSG seeking reimbursement of future expenses, policy and contract owners will be notified in advance. The Fund will pay fees relating to Service Class shares.

 

Administrative services: The Fund has entered into an agreement with ATFS for financial and legal fund administration services, which includes such items as compliance, expenses, financial statements and other reporting, distributions, tax returns, prospectus preparation, board of directors meeting support, transfer agency and other legal matters. The Legal fees on the Statement of Operations are for fees paid to external legal counsel. The Fund paid ATFS $26 for Administration fees for the period ended June 30, 2004.

 

Deferred compensation plan: Each eligible Fund Director may elect participation in the Deferred Compensation Plan for Directors of ATSF (“the Plan”). Under the Plan, such Directors may defer payment of a percentage of their total fees earned as a Fund Director. These deferred amounts may be invested in any portfolio of Transamerica IDEX Mutual Funds, an affiliate of the Fund. At June 30, 2004, the value of invested plan amounts was $14. Invested plan amounts and the total liability for deferred compensation to the Directors under the Plan at June 30, 2004, are included in Net assets in the accompanying Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

NOTE  1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The AEGON/Transamerica Series Fund, Inc. (“ATSF”) is a Maryland corporation registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. ATSF serves as a funding vehicle for variable life insurance, variable annuity and group annuity products. Capital Guardian U.S. Equity (“the Fund”), part of ATSF, began operations as part of the Endeavor Series Trust on October 9, 2000. The Fund became part of ATSF on May 1, 2002.

 

In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties, which provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote.

 

See the Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information for a description of the Fund’s investment objective.

 

In preparing the Fund’s financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with GAAP.

 

Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers two classes of shares, an Initial Class and a Service Class. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses.

 

Pricing of shares: The Fund prices its shares on the basis of the net asset value of each class of shares of the Fund, which is determined as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) (generally 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time) on each day on which the NYSE is open for trading (other than a day on which there are insufficient changes in the value of the Fund’s portfolio securities to materially affect the Fund’s net asset value or a day on which no shares are tendered for redemption and no order to purchase any shares is received).

 

Security valuations: Fund investments traded on an exchange are valued at the closing price on the day of valuation on the exchange where the security is principally traded.

 

Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the last quoted bid price.

Debt securities are valued by independent pricing services; however, those that mature in sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market.

 

Investment company securities are valued at the net asset value of the underlying portfolio.

 

Other securities for which quotations are not readily available also are valued at fair market value as determined in good faith using guidelines established by and under the supervision of the Board of Directors, and the Fund’s Valuation Committee. These guidelines may include: the type of security; any restrictions on its resale; financial or business news of the issuer; similar or related securities that are actively trading; related corporate actions; and other significant events occurring after the close of trading in the security.

 

Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investors Bank & Trust Company (“IBT”). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at June 30, 2004, was paying an interest rate of 0.75%.

 

Repurchase agreements: The Fund is authorized to enter into repurchase agreements. The Fund, through IBT, receives delivery of the underlying securities, the value of which at the time of purchase is required to be an amount equal to at least 100% of the resale price. Repurchase agreements involve the risk that the seller will fail to repurchase the security, as agreed. In that case, the Fund will bear the risk of value fluctuations until the security can be sold and may encounter delays and incur costs in liquidating the security. In the event of bankruptcy or insolvency of the seller, delays and costs are incurred.

 

Directed brokerage: The sub-adviser, to the extent consistent with the best execution and usual commission rate policies and practices, may place security transactions of the Fund with broker/dealers with which ATSF has established a Directed Brokerage Program. A Directed Brokerage Program is any arrangement under which a broker/dealer applies a portion of the commissions received by such broker/dealer on the security transactions to the Fund. In no event will commissions paid by the Fund be used to pay expenses that would otherwise be borne by any other funds within ATSF, or by any other party. Directed commissions for the period ended June 30, 2004, of $10 are included in net realized gains in the Statement of Operations.

 

Securities lending: The Fund may lend securities to enhance fund earnings from investing cash collateral received in making such loans to qualified borrowers (typically broker/dealers). The Fund has engaged its custodian bank, IBT, as a lending agent to administer its securities lending program. IBT earned $9 of program net income for its services. When the Fund makes a security loan, it receives cash collateral as protection against the risk that the borrower will default on the loan, and records an asset for the cash invested collateral and a liability for the return of the collateral.

 

Loans of securities are required to be secured by collateral at least equal to 102% of the value of the securities at inception of the loan, and not

less then 100% thereafter. The Fund may invest cash collateral in short-term money market instruments including: U.S. Treasury Bills, U.S. agency obligations, commercial paper, money market mutual funds, repurchase agreements and other highly rated, liquid investments. During the life of securities loans, the collateral and securities loaned

remain subject to fluctuation in value. IBT marks to market securities loaned and the collateral each business day. If additional collateral is due (at least $1), IBT collects additional cash collateral from the borrowers. Although securities loaned will be fully collateralized at all times, IBT may experience delays in, or may be prevented from, recovering the collateral on behalf of the Fund. The Fund may recall a loaned security position at any time from the borrower through IBT. In the event the borrower fails to timely return a recalled security, IBT may indemnify the Fund by purchasing replacement securities for the Fund at its own expense and claiming the collateral to fund such a purchase. IBT absorbs the loss if the collateral value is not sufficient to cover the cost of the replacement securities. If replacement securities are not available, IBT will credit the equivalent cash value to the Fund.

 

While a security is on loan, the Fund does not have the right to vote that security. However, if time permits, the Fund will attempt to recall a security on loan and vote the proxy.

 

Income from securities lending is included in the Statement of Operations. The amount of collateral and value of securities on loan are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as well as in the Schedule of Investments.

 

Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the first-in, first-out basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, in the case of foreign securities, as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, including accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis commencing on the settlement date.

 

Dividend distributions: Dividend and capital gains distributions are typically declared and reinvested annually and are generally paid and reinvested on the business day following the ex-date.

 

NOTE  2. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

 

AEGON/Transamerica Fund Advisers, Inc. (“ATFA”) is the Fund’s investment adviser. AEGON/Transamerica Fund Services, Inc. (“ATFS”) is the Fund’s administrator and transfer agent. AFSG Securities Corp. (“AFSG”) is the Fund’s distributor. AFSG is 100% owned by AUSA Holding Company (“AUSA”). ATFA is a directly owned subsidiary of Western Reserve Life Assurance Co. of Ohio (78%) (“WRL”) and AUSA (22%). ATFS is a wholly owned subsidiary of WRL. AUSA and WRL are wholly owned indirect subsidiaries of AEGON NV, a Netherlands corporation.

 

Certain officers and directors of the Fund are also officers and/or directors of ATFA, ATFS, AFSG and WRL. No affiliated officer or director receives any compensation directly from the Fund.

 

Investment advisory fees: The Fund pays management fees to ATFA based on average daily net assets (“ANA”) at the following breakpoints:

 

0.85% of first $300 million

0.80% of the next $200 million of ANA

0.775% of ANA over $500 million

 

ATFA has contractually agreed to waive its advisory fee and will reimburse the Fund to the extent that operating expenses, excluding 12b-1 fees, exceed the following stated annual limit:

 

1.06% Expense Limit

 

If total fund expenses fall below the annual expense limitations agreed to by the adviser within the succeeding three years, the Fund may be required to pay the adviser a portion or all of the waived advisory fees.

 

There are no amounts subject to recapture at June 30, 2004.

 

Distribution and service fees: The Fund adopted a distribution plan (“Distribution Plan”) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Pursuant to the Distribution Plan, ATSF entered into a Distribution Agreement with AFSG effective May 1, 1999.

 

Under the Distribution Plan and Distribution Agreement on the Initial Class shares, AFSG, on behalf of the Fund, is authorized to pay various service providers, as direct payment for expenses incurred in connection with distribution of the Fund’s shares, amounts equal to actual expenses associated with distributing the shares.

 

The Distribution Plan on the Service Class shares requires ATSF to pay distribution fees to AFSG as compensation for its activities, not as reimbursement for specific expenses. The fee on the Service Class is paid to the insurance companies for providing services and account maintenance for their policyholders who invest in the variable insurance products which invest in the Service Class shares.

 

The Fund is authorized under the 12b-1 plan to pay fees on each class up to the following limits:

 

Initial Class

   0.15%

Service Class

   0.25%

 

AFSG has determined that it will not seek payment by the Fund of the distribution expenses incurred with respect to the Initial Class shares before April 30, 2005. Prior to AFSG seeking reimbursement of future expenses, policy and contract owners will be notified in advance. The Fund will pay fees relating to Service Class shares.

Deferred compensation plan: Each eligible Fund Director may elect participation in the Deferred Compensation Plan for Directors of ATSF

(“the Plan”). Under the Plan, such Directors may defer payment of a percentage of their total fees earned as a Fund Director.

NOTE  4. FEDERAL INCOME TAX MATTERS

NOTE  1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The AEGON/Transamerica Series Fund, Inc. (“ATSF”) is a Maryland corporation registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. ATSF serves as a funding vehicle for variable life insurance, variable annuity and group annuity products. Capital Guardian Value (“the Fund”), part of ATSF, began operations as part of the Endeavor Series Trust on May 27, 1993. The Fund became part of ATSF on May 1, 2002.

 

In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties, which provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote.

 

See the Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information for a description of the Fund’s investment objective.

 

In preparing the Fund’s financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with GAAP.

 

Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers two classes of shares, an Initial Class and a Service Class. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses.

 

Pricing of shares: The Fund prices its shares on the basis of the net asset value of each class of shares of the Fund, which is determined as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) (generally 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time) on each day on which the NYSE is open for trading (other than a day on which there are insufficient changes in the value of the Fund’s portfolio securities to materially affect the Fund’s net asset value or a day on which no shares are tendered for redemption and no order to purchase any shares is received).

 

Security valuations: Fund investments traded on an exchange are valued at the closing price on the day of valuation on the exchange where the security is principally traded.

 

Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the last quoted bid price.

 

Debt securities are valued by independent pricing services; however, those that mature in sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market.

 

Investment company securities are valued at the net asset value of the underlying portfolio.

 

Other securities for which quotations are not readily available also are valued at fair market value as determined in good faith using guidelines established by and under the supervision of the Board of Directors and the Fund’s Valuation Committee. These guidelines may include: the type of security; any restrictions on its resale; financial or business news of the issuer; similar or related securities that are actively trading; related corporate actions; and other significant events occurring after the close of trading in the security.

 

Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investors Bank & Trust Company (“IBT”). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at June 30, 2004, was paying an interest rate of 0.75%.

 

Repurchase agreements: The Fund is authorized to enter into repurchase agreements. The Fund, through IBT, receives delivery of the underlying securities, the value of which at the time of purchase is required to be an amount equal to at least 100% of the resale price. Repurchase agreements involve the risk that the seller will fail to repurchase the security, as agreed. In that case, the Fund will bear the risk of value fluctuations until the security can be sold and may encounter delays and incur costs in liquidating the security. In the event of bankruptcy or insolvency of the seller, delays and costs are incurred.

 

Directed brokerage: The sub-adviser, to the extent consistent with the best execution and usual commission rate policies and practices, may place security transactions of the Fund with broker/dealers with which ATSF has established a Directed Brokerage Program. A Directed Brokerage Program is any arrangement under which a broker/dealer applies a portion of the commissions received by such broker/dealer on the security transactions to the Fund. In no event will commissions paid by the Fund be used to pay expenses that would otherwise be borne by any other funds within ATSF, or by any other party. Directed commissions for the period ended June 30, 2004, of $32 are included in net realized gains in the Statement of Operations.

 

Securities lending: The Fund may lend securities to enhance fund earnings from investing cash collateral received in making such loans to qualified borrowers (typically broker/dealers). The Fund has engaged its custodian bank, IBT, as a lending agent to administer its securities lending program. IBT earned $17 of program net income for its services. When the Fund makes a security loan, it receives cash collateral as protection against the risk that the borrower will default on the loan, and records an asset for the cash invested collateral and a liability for the return of the collateral.

 

Loans of securities are required to be secured by collateral at least equal to 102% of the value of the securities at inception of the loan, and not less then 100% thereafter. The Fund may invest cash collateral in short-

term money market instruments including: U.S. Treasury Bills, U.S. agency obligations, commercial paper, money market mutual funds, repurchase agreements and other highly rated, liquid investments.

 

During the life of securities loans, the collateral and securities loaned remain subject to fluctuation in value. IBT marks to market securities loaned and the collateral each business day. If additional collateral is due (at least $1), IBT collects additional cash collateral from the borrowers. Although securities loaned will be fully collateralized at all times, IBT may experience delays in, or may be prevented from, recovering the collateral on behalf of the Fund. The Fund may recall a loaned security position at any time from the borrower through IBT. In the event the borrower fails to timely return a recalled security, IBT may indemnify the Fund by purchasing replacement securities for the Fund at its own expense and claiming the collateral to fund such a purchase. IBT absorbs the loss if the collateral value is not sufficient to cover the cost of the replacement securities. If replacement securities are not available, IBT will credit the equivalent cash value to the Fund.

 

While a security is on loan, the Fund does not have the right to vote that security. However, if time permits, the Fund will attempt to recall a security on loan and vote the proxy.

 

Income from securities lending is included in the Statement of Operations. The amount of collateral and value of securities on loan are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as well as in the Schedule of Investments.

 

Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the first-in, first-out basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, in the case of foreign securities, as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, including accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis commencing on the settlement date.

 

Dividend distributions: Dividend and capital gains distributions are typically declared and reinvested annually and are generally paid and reinvested on the business day following the ex-date.

 

NOTE  2. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

 

AEGON/Transamerica Fund Advisers, Inc. (“ATFA”) is the Fund’s investment adviser. AEGON/Transamerica Fund Services, Inc. (“ATFS”) is the Fund’s administrator and transfer agent. AFSG Securities Corp. (“AFSG”) is the Fund’s distributor. AFSG is 100% owned by AUSA Holding Company (“AUSA”). ATFA is a directly owned subsidiary of Western Reserve Life Assurance Co. of Ohio (78%) (“WRL”) and AUSA (22%). ATFS is a wholly owned subsidiary of WRL. AUSA and WRL are wholly owned indirect subsidiaries of AEGON NV, a Netherlands corporation.

Certain officers and directors of the Fund are also officers and/or directors of ATFA, ATFS, AFSG and WRL. No affiliated officer or director receives any compensation directly from the Fund.

 

The following schedule reflects the percentage of fund assets owned by affiliated mutual funds (i.e. through the asset allocation funds):

 

     Net Assets

   % of
Net Assets


 

Asset Allocation–Growth Portfolio

   $ 21,777    4 %

Asset Allocation–Moderate Growth Portfolio

     37,414    7 %
    

  

Total

   $ 59,191    11 %
    

  

 

Investment advisory fees: The Fund pays management fees to ATFA based on average daily net assets (“ANA”) at the following breakpoints:

 

0.85% of first $300 million

0.80% of the next $200 million of ANA

0.775% of ANA over $500 million

 

ATFA has contractually agreed to waive its advisory fee and will reimburse the Fund to the extent that operating expenses, excluding 12b-1 fees, exceed the following stated annual limit:

 

0.92% Expense Limit

 

If total fund expenses fall below the annual expense limitations agreed to by the adviser within the succeeding three years, the Fund may be required to pay the adviser a portion or all of the waived advisory fees.

 

There are no amounts subject to recapture at June 30, 2004.

 

Distribution and service fees: The Fund adopted a distribution plan (“Distribution Plan”) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Pursuant to the Distribution Plan, ATSF entered into a Distribution Agreement with AFSG effective May 1, 1999.

 

Under the Distribution Plan and Distribution Agreement on the Initial Class shares, AFSG, on behalf of the Fund, is authorized to pay various service providers, as direct payment for expenses incurred in connection with distribution of the Fund’s shares, amounts equal to actual expenses associated with distributing the shares.

 

The Distribution Plan on the Service Class shares requires ATSF to pay distribution fees to AFSG as compensation for its activities, not as reimbursement for specific expenses. The fee on the Service Class is paid to the insurance companies for providing services and account maintenance for their policyholders who invest in the variable insurance products which invest in the Service Class shares.

 

The Fund is authorized under the 12b-1 plan to pay fees on each class up to the following limits:

 

Initial Class

   0.15%

Service Class

   0.25%

 

AFSG has determined that it will not seek payment by the Fund of the distribution expenses incurred with respect to the Initial Class shares

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

At June 30, 2004

(all amounts in thousands)

(unaudited)

 

NOTE  1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The AEGON/Transamerica Series Fund, Inc. (“ATSF”) is a Maryland corporation registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. ATSF serves as a funding vehicle for variable life insurance, variable annuity and group annuity products. Clarion Real Estate Securities (“the Fund”), part of ATSF, began operations on May 1, 1998.

 

In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties, which provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote.

 

See the Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information for a description of the Fund’s investment objective.

 

In preparing the Fund’s financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with GAAP.

 

Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers two classes of shares, an Initial Class and a Service Class. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses.

 

Pricing of shares: The Fund prices its shares on the basis of the net asset value of each class of shares of the Fund, which is determined as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) (generally 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time) on each day on which the NYSE is open for trading (other than a day on which there are insufficient changes in the value of the Fund’s portfolio securities to materially affect the Fund’s net asset value or a day on which no shares are tendered for redemption and no order to purchase any shares is received).

 

Security valuations: Fund investments traded on an exchange are valued at the closing price on the day of valuation on the exchange where the security is principally traded.

 

Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the last quoted bid price.

 

Debt securities are valued by independent pricing services; however, those that mature in sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market.

 

Investment company securities are valued at the net asset value of the underlying portfolio.

 

Other securities for which quotations are not readily available also are valued at fair market value as determined in good faith using guidelines established by and under the supervision of the Board of Directors, and the Fund’s Valuation Committee. These guidelines may include: the type of security; any restrictions on its resale; financial or business news of the issuer; similar or related securities that are actively trading; related corporate actions; and other significant events occurring after the close of trading in the security.

 

Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investors Bank & Trust Company (“IBT”). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at June 30, 2004, was paying an interest rate of 0.75%.

 

Repurchase agreements: The Fund is authorized to enter into repurchase agreements. The Fund, through IBT, receives delivery of the underlying securities, the value of which at the time of purchase is required to be an amount equal to at least 100% of the resale price. Repurchase agreements involve the risk that the seller will fail to repurchase the security, as agreed. In that case, the Fund will bear the risk of value fluctuations until the security can be sold and may encounter delays and incur costs in liquidating the security. In the event of bankruptcy or insolvency of the seller, delays and costs are incurred.

 

Directed brokerage: The sub-adviser, to the extent consistent with the best execution and usual commission rate policies and practices, may place security transactions of the Fund with broker/dealers with which ATSF has established a Directed Brokerage Program. A Directed Brokerage Program is any arrangement under which a broker/dealer applies a portion of the commissions received by such broker/dealer on the security transactions to the Fund. In no event will commissions paid by the Fund be used to pay expenses that would otherwise be borne by any other funds within ATSF, or by any other party. Directed commissions for the period ended June 30, 2004, of $52 are included in net realized gains in the Statement of Operations.

 

Securities lending: The Fund may lend securities to enhance fund earnings from investing cash collateral received in making such loans to qualified borrowers (typically broker/dealers). The Fund has engaged its custodian bank, IBT, as a lending agent to administer its securities lending program. IBT earned $3 of program net income for its services. When the Fund makes a security loan, it receives cash collateral as protection against the risk that the borrower will default on the loan, and records an asset for the cash invested collateral and a liability for the return of the collateral.

 

Loans of securities are required to be secured by collateral at least equal to 102% of the value of the securities at inception of the loan, and not

less then 100% thereafter. The Fund may invest cash collateral in short-term money market instruments including: U.S. Treasury Bills, U.S. agency obligations, commercial paper, money market mutual funds, repurchase agreements and other highly rated, liquid investments. During the life of securities loans, the collateral and securities loaned remain subject to fluctuation in value. IBT marks to market securities loaned and the collateral each business day. If additional collateral is due (at least $1), IBT collects additional cash collateral from the borrowers. Although securities loaned will be fully collateralized at all times, IBT may experience delays in, or may be prevented from, recovering the collateral on behalf of the Fund. The Fund may recall a loaned security position at any time from the borrower through IBT. In the event the borrower fails to timely return a recalled security, IBT may indemnify the Fund by purchasing replacement securities for the Fund at its own expense and claiming the collateral to fund such a purchase. IBT absorbs the loss if the collateral value is not sufficient to cover the cost of the replacement securities. If replacement securities are not available, IBT will credit the equivalent cash value to the Fund.

 

While a security is on loan, the Fund does not have the right to vote that security. However, if time permits, the Fund will attempt to recall a security on loan and vote the proxy.

 

Income from securities lending is included in the Statement of Operations. The amount of collateral and value of securities on loan are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as well as in the Schedule of Investments.

 

Real Estate Investment Trusts (“REITs”): There are certain additional risks involved in investing in REITs. These include, but are not limited to, economic conditions, changes in zoning laws, real estate values, property taxes and interest rates. Since the Fund invests primarily in real estate securities, the value of its share may fluctuate more widely than the value of shares of a fund that invests in a broad range of industries.

 

Dividend income is recorded at management’s estimate of the income included in distributions from the REIT investments. Distributions received in excess of the estimated amount are recorded as a reduction of the cost of investments. The actual amounts of income, return of capital and capital gains are only determined by each REIT after the fiscal year end and may differ from the estimated amounts.

 

Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the first-in, first-out basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, in the case of foreign securities, as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, including accretion

of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis commencing on the settlement date.

Dividend distributions: Dividend and capital gains distributions are typically declared and reinvested annually and are generally paid and reinvested on the business day following the ex-date.

NOTE  2–(continued)

 

The Distribution Plan on the Service Class shares requires ATSF to pay distribution fees to AFSG as compensation for its activities, not as reimbursement for specific expenses. The fee on the Service Class is paid to the insurance companies for providing services and account maintenance for their policyholders who invest in the variable insurance products which invest in the Service Class shares.

 

The Fund is authorized under the 12b-1 plan to pay fees on each class up to the following limits:

 

Initial Class

   0.15%

Service Class

   0.25%

 

AFSG has determined that it will not seek payment by the Fund of the distribution expenses incurred with respect to the Initial Class shares before April 30, 2005. Prior to AFSG seeking reimbursement of future expenses, policy and contract owners will be notified in advance. The Fund will pay fees relating to Service Class shares.

 

Administrative services: The Fund has entered into an agreement with ATFS for financial and legal fund administration services, which includes such items as compliance, expenses, financial statements and other reporting, distributions, tax returns, prospectus preparation, board of directors meeting support, transfer agency and other legal matters. The Legal fees on the Statement of Operations are for fees paid to external legal counsel. The Fund paid ATFS $18 for Administration fees for the period ended June 30, 2004.

 

Deferred compensation plan: Each eligible Fund Director may elect participation in the Deferred Compensation Plan for Directors of ATSF (“the Plan”). Under the Plan, such Directors may defer payment of a percentage of their total fees earned as a Fund Director. These deferred amounts may be invested in any portfolio of Transamerica IDEX Mutual Funds, an affiliate of the Fund. At June 30, 2004, the value of invested plan amounts was $10. Invested plan amounts and the total liability for deferred compensation to the Directors under the Plan at June 30, 2004, are included in Net assets in the accompanying Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

NOTE  3. INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS

 

The cost of securities purchased and proceeds from securities sold (excluding short-term securities) for the period ended June 30, 2004, were as follows:

 

Purchases of securities:

      

Long-Term excluding U.S. Government

   $   119,470

U.S. Government

    

Proceeds from maturities and sales of securities:

      

Long-Term excluding U.S. Government

     72,934

U.S. Government

    

 

 

NOTE  4. FEDERAL INCOME TAX MATTERS

 

The Fund has not made any provision for federal income taxes due to its policy to distribute all of its taxable income and capital gains to its shareholders and otherwise qualify as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for items including, but not limited to, wash sales and REIT return of capital adjustments.

 

The aggregate cost of investments and composition of unrealized appreciation (depreciation) for federal income tax purposes as of June 30, 2004, are as follows:

 

Federal Tax Cost Basis

   $   258,266  
    


Unrealized Appreciation

   $ 34,993  

Unrealized (Depreciation)

     (31 )
    


Net Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation)

   $ 34,962  
    


 

NOTE  5. OTHER MATTERS

 

ATSF, and certain of its affiliated entities, have received requests for information from the Staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission in connection with market timing and late trading within the funds. ATSF and the affiliated entities have voluntarily cooperated in the investigation and have been providing the information as requested.

NOTE  1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The AEGON/Transamerica Series Fund, Inc. (“ATSF”) is a Maryland corporation registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. ATSF serves as a funding vehicle for variable life insurance, variable annuity and group annuity products. Federated Growth & Income (“the Fund”), part of ATSF, began operations on March 1, 1994.

 

In the normal course of business the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties, which provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote.

 

See the Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information for a description of the Fund’s investment objective.

 

In preparing the Fund’s financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with GAAP.

 

Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers two classes of shares, an Initial Class and a Service Class. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses.

 

Pricing of shares: The Fund prices its shares on the basis of the net asset value of each class of shares of the Fund, which is determined as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) (generally 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time) on each day on which the NYSE is open for trading (other than a day on which there are insufficient changes in the value of the Fund’s portfolio securities to materially affect the Fund’s net asset value or a day on which no shares are tendered for redemption and no order to purchase any shares is received).

 

Security valuations: Fund investments traded on an exchange are valued at the closing price on the day of valuation on the exchange where the security is principally traded.

 

Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the last quoted bid price.

 

Debt securities are valued by independent pricing services; however, those that mature in sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market.

 

Investment company securities are valued at the net asset value of the underlying portfolio.

 

Foreign securities generally are valued based on quotations from the primary market in which they are traded and are translated from the local currency into U.S. dollars using closing exchange rates. Many foreign securities markets are open for trading at times when the U.S. markets are closed for trading and many foreign securities markets close for trading before the close of the NYSE. The value of foreign securities may be affected significantly on a day that the NYSE is closed and an investor is unable to purchase or redeem shares. If a significant market event impacting the value of a portfolio security (e.g., natural disaster, company announcement, market volatility) occurs subsequent to the close of trading in the security, but prior to the calculation of the Fund’s net asset value per share, market quotations for that security may be determined to be unreliable and accordingly, not “readily available.” If market quotations are not readily available, and the impact of such a significant market event materially affects the net asset value per share of the Fund, an affected portfolio security will be valued at fair market value as determined in good faith using guidelines adopted by the Board of Directors of the Fund, under the supervision of the Fund’s Valuation Committee. Factors that may be considered to value foreign securities at fair market value may include, among others: the value of other securities traded on other markets, foreign currency exchange activity and the trading of financial products tied to foreign securities.

 

Other securities for which quotations are not readily available also are valued at fair market value as determined in good faith using guidelines established by and under the supervision of the Board of Directors, and the Fund’s Valuation Committee. These guidelines may include: the type of security; any restrictions on its resale; financial or business news of the issuer; similar or related securities that are actively trading; related corporate actions; and other significant events occurring after the close of trading in the security.

 

Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investors Bank & Trust Company (“IBT”). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at June 30, 2004, was paying an interest rate of 0.75%.

 

Repurchase agreements: The Fund is authorized to enter into repurchase agreements. The Fund, through IBT, receives delivery of the underlying securities, the value of which at the time of purchase is required to be an amount equal to at least 100% of the resale price. Repurchase agreements involve the risk that the seller will fail to repurchase the security, as agreed. In that case, the Fund will bear the risk of value fluctuations until the security can be sold and may encounter delays and incur costs in liquidating the security. In the event of bankruptcy or insolvency of the seller, delays and costs are incurred.

NOTE  1–(continued)

 

Directed brokerage: The sub-adviser, to the extent consistent with the best execution and usual commission rate policies and practices, may place security transactions of the Fund with broker/dealers with which ATSF has established a Directed Brokerage Program. A Directed Brokerage Program is any arrangement under which a broker/dealer applies a portion of the commissions received by such broker/dealer on the security transactions to the Fund. In no event will commissions paid by the Fund be used to pay expenses that would otherwise be borne by any other funds within ATSF, or by any other party. Directed commissions for the period ended June 30, 2004, of $2 are included in net realized gains in the Statement of Operations.

 

Securities lending: The Fund may lend securities to enhance fund earnings from investing cash collateral received in making such loans to qualified borrowers (typically broker/dealers). The Fund has engaged its custodian bank, IBT, as a lending agent to administer its securities lending program. IBT earned $29 of program net income for its services. When the Fund makes a security loan, it receives cash collateral as protection against the risk that the borrower will default on the loan, and records an asset for the cash invested collateral and a liability for the return of the collateral.

 

Loans of securities are required to be secured by collateral at least equal to 102% of the value of the securities at inception of the loan, and not less

then 100% thereafter. The Fund may invest cash collateral in short-term money market instruments including: U.S. Treasury Bills, U.S. agency obligations, commercial paper, money market mutual funds, repurchase agreements and other highly rated, liquid investments. During the life of securities loans, the collateral and securities loaned remain subject to

fluctuation in value. IBT marks to market securities loaned and the collateral each business day. If additional collateral is due (at least $1), IBT collects additional cash collateral from the borrowers. Although securities loaned will be fully collateralized at all times, IBT may experience delays in, or may be prevented from, recovering the collateral on behalf of the Fund. The Fund may recall a loaned security position at any time from the borrower through IBT. In the event the borrower fails to timely return a recalled security, IBT may indemnify the Fund by purchasing replacement securities for the Fund at its own expense and claiming the collateral to fund such a purchase. IBT absorbs the loss if the collateral value is not sufficient to cover the cost of the replacement securities. If replacement securities are not available, IBT will credit the equivalent cash value to the Fund.

 

While a security is on loan, the Fund does not have the right to vote that security. However, if time permits, the Fund will attempt to recall a security on loan and vote the proxy.

 

Income from securities lending is included in the Statement of Operations. The amount of collateral and value of securities on loan are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as well as in the Schedule of Investments.

Real Estate Investment Trusts (“REITs”): There are certain additional risks involved in investing in REITs. These include, but are not limited to, economic conditions, changes in zoning laws, real estate values, property taxes and interest rates.

 

Dividend income is recorded at management’s estimate of the income included in distributions from the REIT investments. Distributions received in excess of the estimated amount are recorded as a reduction of the cost of investments. The actual amounts of income, return of capital and capital gains are only determined by each REIT after the fiscal year end and may differ from the estimated amounts.

 

Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the first-in, first-out basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, in the case of foreign securities, as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, including accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis commencing on the settlement date.

 

Foreign currency denominated investments: The accounting records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the closing exchange rate each day. The cost of foreign securities is translated at the exchange rate in effect when the investment was acquired. The Fund combines fluctuations from currency exchange rates and fluctuations in value when computing net realized and unrealized gains or losses from investments.

 

Net foreign currency gains and losses resulting from changes in exchange rates include: 1) foreign currency fluctuations between trade date and settlement date of investment security transactions; 2) gains and losses on forward foreign currency contracts; and 3) the difference between the receivable amounts of interest and dividends recorded in the accounting records in U.S. dollars and the amounts actually received.

 

Foreign currency denominated assets may involve risks not typically associated with domestic transactions, including unanticipated movements in exchange currency rates, the degree of government supervision and regulation of security markets, and the possibility of political or economic instability.

 

Forward foreign currency contracts: The Fund may enter into forward foreign currency contracts to hedge against exchange rate risk arising from investments in securities denominated in foreign currencies. Contracts are valued at the contractual forward rate and are marked to market daily, with the change in value recorded as an unrealized gain or loss. When the contracts are closed a realized gain or loss is incurred. Risks may arise from changes in market value of the underlying currencies and from the possible inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts. Open forward currency contracts at June 30, 2004, are listed in the Schedule of Investments.

 

Dividend distributions: Dividend and capital gains distributions are typically declared and reinvested annually and are generally paid and reinvested on the business day following the ex-date.

NOTE  2. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

 

AEGON/Transamerica Fund Advisers, Inc. (“ATFA”) is the Fund’s investment adviser. AEGON/Transamerica Fund Services, Inc. (“ATFS”) is the Fund’s administrator and transfer agent. AFSG Securities Corp. (“AFSG”) is the Fund’s distributor. AFSG is 100% owned by AUSA Holding Company (“AUSA”). ATFA is a directly owned subsidiary of Western Reserve Life Assurance Co. of Ohio (78%) (“WRL”) and AUSA (22%). ATFS is a wholly owned subsidiary of WRL. AUSA and WRL are wholly owned indirect subsidiaries of AEGON NV, a Netherlands corporation.

 

Certain officers and directors of the Fund are also officers and/or directors of ATFA, ATFS, AFSG and WRL. No affiliated officer or director receives any compensation directly from the Fund.

 

Investment advisory fees: The Fund pays management fees to ATFA based on average daily net assets (“ANA”) at the following rate:

 

0.75% of ANA

 

ATFA has contractually agreed to waive its advisory fee and will reimburse the Fund to the extent that operating expenses, excluding 12b-1 fees, exceed the following stated annual limit:

 

1.00% Expense Limit

 

If total fund expenses fall below the annual expense limitations agreed to by the adviser within the succeeding three years, the Fund may be required to pay the adviser a portion or all of the waived advisory fees.

 

There are no amounts subject to recapture at June 30, 2004.

 

Distribution and service fees: The Fund adopted a distribution plan (“Distribution Plan”) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Pursuant to the Distribution Plan, ATSF entered into a Distribution Agreement with AFSG effective May 1, 1999.

 

Under the Distribution Plan and Distribution Agreement on the Initial Class shares, AFSG, on behalf of the Fund, is authorized to pay various service providers, as direct payment for expenses incurred in connection with distribution of the Fund’s shares, amounts equal to actual expenses associated with distributing the shares.

 

The Distribution Plan on the Service Class shares requires ATSF to pay distribution fees to AFSG as compensation for its activities, not as reimbursement for specific expenses. The fee on the Service Class is paid to the insurance companies for providing services and account maintenance for their policyholders who invest in the variable insurance products which invest in the Service Class shares.

The Fund is authorized under the 12b-1 plan to pay fees on each class up to the following limits:

 

Initial Class

   0.15%

Service Class

   0.25%

 

AFSG has determined that it will not seek payment by the Fund of the distribution expenses incurred with respect to the Initial Class shares before April 30, 2005. Prior to AFSG seeking reimbursement of future expenses, policy and contract owners will be notified in advance. The Fund will pay fees relating to Service Class shares.

 

Administrative services: The Fund has entered into an agreement with ATFS for financial and legal fund administration services, which includes such items as compliance, expenses, financial statements and other reporting, distributions, tax returns, prospectus preparation, board of directors meeting support, transfer agency and other legal matters. The Legal fees on the Statement of Operations are for fees paid to external legal counsel. The Fund paid ATFS $34, for Administration fees, for the period ended June 30, 2004.

 

Deferred compensation plan: Each eligible Fund Director may elect participation in the Deferred Compensation Plan for Directors of ATSF (“the Plan”). Under the Plan, such Directors may defer payment of a percentage of their total fees earned as a Fund Director. These deferred amounts may be invested in any portfolio of Transamerica IDEX Mutual Funds, an affiliate of the Fund. At June 30, 2004, the value of invested plan amounts was $17. Invested plan amounts and the total liability for deferred compensation to the Directors under the Plan at June 30, 2004, are included in Net assets in the accompanying Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

 

NOTE  3. INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS

 

The cost of securities purchased and proceeds from securities sold (excluding short-term securities) for the period ended June 30, 2004, were as follows:

Long-Term excluding U.S. Government

     187,801

NOTE  4. FEDERAL INCOME TAX MATTERS

 

The Fund has not made any provision for federal income taxes due to its policy to distribute all of its taxable income and capital gains to its shareholders and otherwise qualify as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for items including, but not limited to, wash sales and foreign currency transactions.

 

The Fund has elected to treat the net capital losses incurred in the two month period prior to December 31, 2003 of $384 (Post-October Loss

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

At June 30, 2004

(all amounts in thousands)

(unaudited)

 

NOTE  1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The AEGON/Transamerica Series Fund, Inc. (“ATSF”) is a Maryland corporation registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. ATSF serves as a funding vehicle for variable life insurance, variable annuity and group annuity products. Great Companies–AmericaSM (“the Fund”), part of ATSF, began operations on May 1, 2000. The fund is “non-diversified” under 1940 Act.

 

On May 3, 2004, the Fund acquired all the net assets of GE U.S. Equity pursuant to a plan of reorganization approved by shareholders. The acquisition was accomplished by a tax-free exchange of 12,848 shares of the Fund for the 9,533 shares of GE U.S. Equity outstanding on April 30, 2004. GE U.S. Equity’s net assets at that date, $124,526 including $11,396 of unrealized appreciation, were combined with those of the Fund, resulting in combined net assets of $346,704.

 

In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties, which provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote.

 

See the Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information for a description of the Fund’s investment objective.

 

In preparing the Fund’s financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with GAAP.

 

Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers two classes of shares, an Initial Class and a Service Class. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses.

 

Pricing of shares: The Fund prices its shares on the basis of the net asset value of each class of shares of the Fund, which is determined as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) (generally 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time) on each day on which the NYSE is open for trading (other than a day on which there are insufficient changes in the value of the Fund’s portfolio securities to materially affect the Fund’s net asset value or a day on which no shares are tendered for redemption and no order to purchase any shares is received).

 

Security valuations: Fund investments traded on an exchange are valued at the closing price on the day of valuation on the exchange where the security is principally traded.

 

Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the last quoted bid price.

 

Debt securities are valued by independent pricing services; however, those that mature in sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market.

 

Investment company securities are valued at the net asset value of the underlying portfolio.

 

Other securities for which quotations are not readily available also are valued at fair market value as determined in good faith using guidelines established by and under the supervision of the Board of Directors, and the Fund’s Valuation Committee. These guidelines may include: the type of security; any restrictions on its resale; financial or business news of the issuer; similar or related securities that are actively trading; related corporate actions; and other significant events occurring after the close of trading in the security.

 

Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investors Bank & Trust Company (“IBT”). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at June 30, 2004, was paying an interest rate of 0.75%.

 

Repurchase agreements: The Fund is authorized to enter into repurchase agreements. The Fund, through IBT, receives delivery of the underlying securities, the value of which at the time of purchase is required to be an amount equal to at least 100% of the resale price. Repurchase agreements involve the risk that the seller will fail to repurchase the security, as agreed. In that case, the Fund will bear the risk of value fluctuations until the security can be sold and may encounter delays and incur costs in liquidating the security. In the event of bankruptcy or insolvency of the seller, delays and costs are incurred.

 

Directed brokerage: The sub-adviser, to the extent consistent with the best execution and usual commission rate policies and practices, may place security transactions of the Fund with broker/dealers with which ATSF has established a Directed Brokerage Program. A Directed Brokerage Program is any arrangement under which a broker/dealer applies a portion of the commissions received by such broker/dealer on the security transactions to the Fund. In no event will commissions paid by the Fund be used to pay expenses that would otherwise be borne by any other funds within ATSF, or by any other party. Directed commissions for the period ended June 30, 2004, of $3 are included in net realized gains in the Statement of Operations.

 

Securities lending: The Fund may lend securities to enhance fund earnings from investing cash collateral received in making such loans to qualified borrowers (typically broker/dealers). The Fund has engaged its custodian bank, IBT, as a lending agent to administer its securities lending program. IBT earned $2 of program net income for its services.

NOTE  1–(continued)

 

When the Fund makes a security loan, it receives cash collateral as protection against the risk that the borrower will default on the loan, and records an asset for the cash invested collateral and a liability for the return of the collateral.

 

Loans of securities are required to be secured by collateral at least equal to 102% of the value of the securities at inception of the loan, and not less then 100% thereafter. The Fund may invest cash collateral in short-term money market instruments including: U.S. Treasury Bills, U.S. agency obligations, commercial paper, money market mutual funds, repurchase agreements and other highly rated, liquid investments. During the life of securities loans, the collateral and securities loaned remain subject to fluctuation in value. IBT marks to market securities loaned and the collateral each business day. If additional collateral is due (at least $1), IBT collects additional cash collateral from the borrowers. Although securities loaned will be fully collateralized at all times, IBT may experience delays in, or may be prevented from, recovering the collateral on behalf of the Fund. The Fund may recall a loaned security position at any time from the borrower through IBT. In the event the borrower fails to timely return a recalled security, IBT may indemnify the Fund by purchasing replacement securities for the Fund at its own expense and claiming the collateral to fund such a purchase. IBT absorbs the loss if the collateral value is not sufficient to cover the cost of the replacement securities. If replacement securities are not available, IBT will credit the equivalent cash value to the Fund.

 

While a security is on loan, the Fund does not have the right to vote that security. However, if time permits, the Fund will attempt to recall a security on loan and vote the proxy.

 

Income from securities lending is included in the Statement of Operations. The amount of collateral and value of securities on loan are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as well as in the Schedule of Investments.

 

Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the first-in, first-out basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, in the case of foreign securities, as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, including accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis commencing on the settlement date.

 

Dividend distributions: Dividend and capital gains distributions are typically declared and reinvested annually and are generally paid and reinvested on the business day following the ex-date.

 

NOTE  2. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

 

AEGON/Transamerica Fund Advisers, Inc. (“ATFA”) is the Fund’s investment adviser. AEGON/Transamerica Fund Services, Inc. (“ATFS”) is the Fund’s administrator and transfer agent. AFSG Securities Corp. (“AFSG”) is the Fund’s distributor. AFSG is 100% owned by AUSA Holding Company (“AUSA”). ATFA is a directly owned subsidiary of Western Reserve Life Assurance Co. of Ohio (78%) (“WRL”) and AUSA (22%). ATFS is a wholly owned subsidiary of WRL. AUSA and WRL are wholly owned indirect subsidiaries of AEGON NV, a Netherlands corporation.

 

Certain officers and directors of the Fund are also officers and/or directors of ATFA, ATFS, AFSG and WRL. No affiliated officer or director receives any compensation directly from the Fund.

 

Great Companies, LLC is both an affiliate of the Fund and a sub-adviser to the Fund.

 

Investment advisory fees: The Fund pays management fees to ATFA based on average daily net assets (“ANA”) at the following breakpoints:

 

From January 1, 2004 to April 30, 2004:

 

0.80% of ANA

 

From May 1, 2004 on:

 

0.775% of first $250 million of ANA

0.75% of ANA over $250 million

 

The actual advisory fee accrued for the six-month period ended June 30, 2004, per average net assets is 0.79%.

 

ATFA has contractually agreed to waive its advisory fee and reimburse the Fund to the extent that operating expenses, excluding 12b-1 fees, exceed the following stated annual limit:

 

1.00% Expense Limit

 

If total fund expenses fall below the annual expense limitations agreed to by the adviser within the succeeding three years, the Fund may be required to pay the adviser a portion or all of the waived advisory fees.

 

There are no amounts subject to recapture at June 30, 2004.

 

Distribution and service fees: The Fund adopted a distribution plan (“Distribution Plan”) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Pursuant to the Distribution Plan, ATSF entered into a Distribution Agreement with AFSG effective May 1, 1999.

 

Under the Distribution Plan and Distribution Agreement on the Initial Class shares, AFSG, on behalf of the Fund, is authorized to pay various service providers, as direct payment for expenses incurred in connection with distribution of the Fund’s shares, amounts equal to actual expenses associated with distributing the shares.

 

The Distribution Plan on the Service Class shares requires ATSF to pay distribution fees to AFSG as compensation for its activities, not as reimbursement for specific expenses. The fee on the Service Class is paid to the insurance companies for providing services and account maintenance for their policyholders who invest in the variable insurance products which invest in the Service Class shares.

NOTE  1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The AEGON/Transamerica Series Fund, Inc. (“ATSF”) is a Maryland corporation registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. ATSF serves as a funding vehicle for variable life insurance, variable annuity and group annuity products. Great Companies–TechnologySM (“the Fund”), part of ATSF, began operations on May 1, 2000.

 

On May 3, 2004, the Fund acquired all the net assets of BlackRock Global Science & Technology Opportunities pursuant to a plan of reorganization approved by shareholders of BlackRock Global Science & Technology Opportunities. The acquisition was accomplished by a tax-free exchange of 5,473 shares of the Fund for the 2,595 shares of BlackRock Global Science & Technology Opportunities outstanding on April 30, 2004. BlackRock Global Science & Technology Opportunities’ net assets at that date $2,446, including $628 of unrealized depreciation, were combined with those of the Fund, resulting in combined net assets of $235,004.

 

In the normal course of business the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties, which provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote.

 

See the Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information for a description of the Fund’s investment objective.

 

In preparing the Fund’s financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with GAAP.

 

Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers two classes of shares, an Initial Class and a Service Class. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses.

 

Pricing of shares: The Fund prices its shares on the basis of the net asset value of each class of shares of the Fund, which is determined as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) (generally 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time) on each day on which the NYSE is open for trading (other than a day on which there are insufficient changes in the value of the Fund’s portfolio securities to materially affect the Fund’s net asset value or a day on which no shares are tendered for redemption and no order to purchase any shares is received).

 

Security valuations: Fund investments traded on an exchange are valued at the closing price on the day of valuation on the exchange where the security is principally traded.

 

Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the last quoted bid price.

 

Debt securities are valued by independent pricing services; however, those that mature in sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market.

 

Investment company securities are valued at the net asset value of the underlying portfolio.

 

Other securities for which quotations are not readily available also are valued at fair market value as determined in good faith using guidelines established by and under the supervision of the Board of Directors, and the Fund’s Valuation Committee. These guidelines may include: the type of security; any restrictions on its resale; financial or business news of the issuer; similar or related securities that are actively trading; related corporate actions; and other significant events occurring after the close of trading in the security.

 

Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investors Bank & Trust Company (“IBT”). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at June 30, 2004, was paying an interest rate of 0.75%.

 

Repurchase agreements: The Fund is authorized to enter into repurchase agreements. The Fund, through IBT, receives delivery of the underlying securities, the value of which at the time of purchase is required to be an amount equal to at least 100% of the resale price. Repurchase agreements involve the risk that the seller will fail to repurchase the security, as agreed. In that case, the Fund will bear the risk of value fluctuations until the security can be sold and may encounter delays and incur costs in liquidating the security. In the event of bankruptcy or insolvency of the seller, delays and costs are incurred.

 

Directed brokerage: The sub-adviser, to the extent consistent with the best execution and usual commission rate policies and practices, may place security transactions of the Fund with broker/dealers with which ATSF has established a Directed Brokerage Program. A Directed Brokerage Program is any arrangement under which a broker/dealer applies a portion of the commissions received by such broker/dealer on the security transactions to the Fund. In no event will commissions paid by the Fund be used to pay expenses that would otherwise be borne by any other funds within ATSF, or by any other party. Directed commissions for the period ended June 30, 2004, of $13 are included in net realized gains in the Statement of Operations.

 

Securities lending: The Fund may lend securities to enhance fund earnings from investing cash collateral received in making such loans to qualified borrowers (typically broker/dealers). The Fund has engaged its custodian bank, IBT, as a lending agent to administer its securities

lending program. IBT earned $4 of program net income for its services. When the Fund makes a security loan, it receives cash collateral as protection against the risk that the borrower will default on the loan, and records an asset for the cash invested collateral and a liability for the return of the collateral.

 

Loans of securities are required to be secured by collateral at least equal to 102% of the value of the securities at inception of the loan, and not less then 100% thereafter. The Fund may invest cash collateral in short-term money market instruments including: U.S. Treasury Bills, U.S. agency obligations, commercial paper, money market mutual funds, repurchase agreements and other highly rated, liquid investments. During the life of securities loans, the collateral and securities loaned remain subject to fluctuation in value. IBT marks to market securities loaned and the collateral each business day. If additional collateral is due (at least $1), IBT collects additional cash collateral from the borrowers. Although securities loaned will be fully collateralized at all times, IBT may experience delays in, or may be prevented from, recovering the collateral on behalf of the Fund. The Fund may recall a loaned security position at any time from the borrower through IBT. In the event the borrower fails to timely return a recalled security, IBT may indemnify the Fund by purchasing replacement securities for the Fund at its own expense and claiming the collateral to fund such a purchase. IBT absorbs the loss if the collateral value is not sufficient to cover the cost of the replacement securities. If replacement securities are not available, IBT will credit the equivalent cash value to the Fund.

 

While a security is on loan, the Fund does not have the right to vote that security. However, if time permits, the Fund will attempt to recall a security on loan and vote the proxy.

 

Income from securities lending is included in the Statement of Operations. The amount of collateral and value of securities on loan are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as well as in the Schedule of Investments.

 

Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the first-in, first-out basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, in the case of foreign securities, as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, including accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis commencing on the settlement date.

 

Option contracts: The Fund may enter into options contracts to manage exposure to market fluctuations. Option contracts are valued at the average of the bid and ask (“Mean Quote”) established each day at the close of the board of trade or exchange on which they are traded. The primary risks associated with options are imperfect correlation between the change in value of the securities held and the prices of the options contracts; the possibility of an illiquid market and inability of the counterparty to meet the contract terms. When the Fund writes a covered call or put option, an amount equal to the premium received by the Fund is included in the Fund’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an asset and as an equivalent liability. The amount of the liability is subsequently marked-to-market to reflect the current value of the option written.

 

Foreign currency denominated investments: The accounting records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the closing exchange rate each day. The cost of foreign securities is translated at the exchange rate in effect when the investment was acquired. The Fund combines fluctuations from currency exchange rates and fluctuations in value when computing net realized and unrealized gains or losses from investments.

 

Net foreign currency gains and losses resulting from changes in exchange rates include: 1) foreign currency fluctuations between trade date and settlement date of investment security transactions; 2) gains and losses on forward foreign currency contracts; and 3) the difference between the receivable amounts of interest and dividends recorded in the accounting records in U.S. dollars and the amounts actually received. Foreign currency denominated assets may involve risks not typically associated with domestic transactions, including unanticipated movements in exchange currency rates, the degree of government supervision and regulation of security markets, and the possibility of political or economic instability.

 

Forward foreign currency contracts: The Fund may enter into forward foreign currency contracts to hedge against exchange rate risk arising from investments in securities denominated in foreign currencies. Contracts are valued at the contractual forward rate and are marked to market daily, with the change in value recorded as an unrealized gain or loss. When the contracts are closed a realized gain or loss is incurred. Risks may arise from changes in market value of the underlying currencies and from the possible inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts. Open forward currency contracts at June 30, 2004, are listed in the Schedule of Investments.

 

Dividend distributions: Dividend and capital gains distributions are typically declared and reinvested annually and are generally paid and reinvested on the business day following the ex-date.

Investment advisory fees: The Fund pays management fees to ATFA based on average daily net assets (“ANA”) at the following rate:

 

0.80% of ANA

 

ATFA has contractually agreed to waive its advisory fee and will reimburse the Fund to the extent that operating expenses, excluding 12b-1 fees, exceed the following stated annual limit:

 

1.00% Expense Limit

 

If total fund expenses fall below the annual expense limitations agreed to by the adviser within the succeeding three years, the Fund may be required to pay the adviser a portion or all of the waived advisory fees.

 

There are no amounts subject to recapture at June 30, 2004.

 

Distribution and service fees: The Fund adopted a distribution plan (“Distribution Plan”) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Pursuant to the Distribution Plan, ATSF entered into a Distribution Agreement with AFSG effective May 1, 1999.

 

Under the Distribution Plan and Distribution Agreement on the Initial Class shares, AFSG, on behalf of the Fund, is authorized to pay various service providers, as direct payment for expenses incurred in connection with distribution of the Fund’s shares, amounts equal to actual expenses associated with distributing the shares.

 

The Distribution Plan on the Service Class shares requires ATSF to pay distribution fees to AFSG as compensation for its activities, not as reimbursement for specific expenses. The fee on the Service Class is paid to the insurance companies for providing services and account maintenance for their policyholders who invest in the variable insurance products which invest in the Service Class shares.

The Fund is authorized under the 12b-1 plan to pay fees on each class up to the following limits:

 

Initial Class

   0.15%

Service Class

   0.25%

 

AFSG has determined that it will not seek payment by the Fund of the distribution expenses incurred with respect to the Initial Class shares before April 30, 2005. Prior to AFSG seeking reimbursement of future expenses, policy and contract owners will be notified in advance. The Fund will pay fees relating to Service Class shares.

 

Administrative services: The Fund has entered into an agreement with ATFS for financial and legal fund administration services, which includes such items as compliance, expenses, financial statements and other reporting, distributions, tax returns, prospectus preparation, board of directors meeting support, transfer agency and other legal matters. The Legal fees on the Statement of Operations are for fees paid to external legal counsel. The Fund paid ATFS $16 for Administration fees for the period ended June 30, 2004.

 

Deferred compensation plan: Each eligible Fund Director may elect participation in the Deferred Compensation Plan for Directors of ATSF (“the Plan”). Under the Plan, such Directors may defer payment of a percentage of their total fees earned as a Fund Director. These deferred amounts may be invested in any portfolio of Transamerica IDEX Mutual Funds, an affiliate of the Fund. At June 30, 2004, the value of invested plan amounts was $9. Invested plan amounts and the total liability for deferred compensation to the Directors under the Plan at June 30, 2004, are included in Net assets in the accompanying Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for items including, but not limited to, wash sales, net operating losses and capital loss carryforwards.

NOTE  1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The AEGON/Transamerica Series Fund, Inc. (“ATSF”) is a Maryland corporation registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. ATSF serves as a funding vehicle for variable life insurance, variable annuity and group annuity products. Janus Growth (“the Fund”), part of ATSF, began operations on October 2, 1986.

 

On May 1, 2003, the Fund acquired all the net assets of Janus Growth II pursuant to a plan of reorganization approved by shareholders of Janus Growth II on April 16, 2003. The acquisition was accomplished by a tax-free exchange of 9,914 shares of the Fund for the 6,961 shares of Janus Growth II outstanding on April 30, 2003. Janus Growth II’s net assets at that date $246,159, including $4,068 of unrealized depreciation were combined with those of the Fund, resulting in combined net assets of $1,411,921.

 

In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties, which provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote.

 

See the Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information for a description of the Fund’s investment objective.

 

In preparing the Fund’s financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with GAAP.

 

Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers two classes of shares, an Initial Class and a Service Class. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses.

 

Pricing of shares: The Fund prices its shares on the basis of the net asset value of each class of shares of the Fund, which is determined as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) (generally 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time) on each day on which the NYSE is open for trading (other than a day on which there are insufficient changes in the value of the Fund’s portfolio securities to materially affect the Fund’s net asset value or a day on which no shares are tendered for redemption and no order to purchase any shares is received).

 

Security valuations: Fund investments traded on an exchange are valued at the closing price on the day of valuation on the exchange where the security is principally traded.

 

Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the last quoted bid price.

 

Debt securities are valued by independent pricing services; however, those that mature in sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market.

 

Investment company securities are valued at the net asset value of the underlying portfolio.

 

Foreign securities generally are valued based on quotations from the primary market in which they are traded and are translated from the local currency into U.S. dollars using closing exchange rates. Many foreign securities markets are open for trading at times when the U.S. markets are closed for trading, and many foreign securities markets close for trading before the close of the NYSE. The value of foreign securities may be affected significantly on a day that the NYSE is closed and an investor is unable to purchase or redeem shares. If a significant market event impacting the value of a portfolio security (e.g., natural disaster, company announcement, market volatility) occurs subsequent to the close of trading in the security, but prior to the calculation of the Fund’s net asset value per share, market quotations for that security may be determined to be unreliable and, accordingly, not “readily available.” If market quotations are not readily available, and the impact of such a significant market event materially affects the net asset value per share of the Fund, an affected portfolio security will be valued at fair market value as determined in good faith using guidelines adopted by the Board of Directors of the Fund, under the supervision of the Fund’s Valuation Committee. Factors that may be considered to value foreign securities at fair market value may include, among other: the value of other securities traded on other markets, foreign currency exchange activity and the trading of financial products tied to foreign securities.

 

Other securities for which quotations are not readily available also are valued at fair market value as determined in good faith using guidelines established by and under the supervision of the Board of Directors, and the Fund’s Valuation Committee. These guidelines may include: the type of security; any restrictions on its resale; financial or business news of the issuer; similar or related securities that are actively trading; related corporate actions; and other significant events occurring after the close of trading in the security.

 

Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investors Bank & Trust Company (“IBT”). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at June 30, 2004, was paying an interest rate of 0.75%.

NOTE  1–(continued)

 

Repurchase agreements: The Fund is authorized to enter into repurchase agreements. The Fund, through IBT, receives delivery of the underlying securities, the value of which at the time of purchase is required to be an amount equal to at least 100% of the resale price. Repurchase agreements involve the risk that the seller will fail to repurchase the security, as agreed. In that case, the Fund will bear the

risk of value fluctuations until the security can be sold and may encounter delays and incur costs in liquidating the security. In the event of bankruptcy or insolvency of the seller, delays and costs are incurred.

 

Directed brokerage: The sub-adviser, to the extent consistent with the best execution and usual commission rate policies and practices, may place security transactions of the Fund with broker/dealers with which ATSF has established a Directed Brokerage Program. A Directed Brokerage Program is any arrangement under which a broker/dealer applies a portion of the commissions received by such broker/dealer on the security transactions to the Fund. In no event will commissions paid by the Fund be used to pay expenses that would otherwise be borne by any other funds within ATSF, or by any other party. Directed commissions for the period ended June 30, 2004, of $197 are included in net realized gains in the Statement of Operations.

 

Securities lending: The Fund may lend securities to enhance fund earnings from investing cash collateral received in making such loans to qualified borrowers (typically broker/dealers). The Fund has engaged its custodian bank, IBT, as a lending agent to administer its securities lending program. IBT earned $56 of program net income for its services. When the Fund makes a security loan, it receives cash collateral as protection against the risk that the borrower will default on the loan, and records an asset for the cash invested collateral and a liability for the return of the collateral.

 

Loans of securities are required to be secured by collateral at least equal to 102% of the value of the securities at inception of the loan, and not less then 100% thereafter. The Fund may invest cash collateral in short-term money market instruments including: U.S. Treasury Bills, U.S. agency obligations, commercial paper, money market mutual funds, repurchase agreements and other highly rated, liquid investments. During the life of securities loans, the collateral and securities loaned remain subject to fluctuation in value. IBT marks to market securities loaned and the collateral each business day. If additional collateral is due (at least $1), IBT collects additional cash collateral from the borrowers. Although securities loaned will be fully collateralized at all times, IBT may experience delays in, or may be prevented from, recovering the collateral on behalf of the Fund. The Fund may recall a loaned security position at any time from the borrower through IBT. In the event the borrower fails to timely return a recalled security, IBT may indemnify the Fund by purchasing replacement securities for the Fund at its own expense and claiming the collateral to fund such a purchase. IBT absorbs the loss if the collateral value is not sufficient to cover the cost of the replacement securities. If replacement securities are not available, IBT will credit the equivalent cash value to the Fund.

 

While a security is on loan, the Fund does not have the right to vote that security. However, if time permits, the Fund will attempt to recall a security on loan and vote the proxy.

 

Income from securities lending is included in the Statement of Operations. The amount of collateral and value of securities on loan are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as well as in the Schedule of Investments.

 

Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the first-in, first-out basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, in the case of foreign securities, as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, including accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis commencing on the settlement date.

 

Foreign currency denominated investments: The accounting records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the closing exchange rate each day. The cost of foreign securities is translated at the exchange rate in effect when the investment was acquired. The Fund combines fluctuations from currency exchange rates and fluctuations in value when computing net realized and unrealized gains or losses from investments.

 

Net foreign currency gains and losses resulting from changes in exchange rates include: 1) foreign currency fluctuations between trade date and settlement date of investment security transactions; 2) gains and losses on forward foreign currency contracts; and 3) the difference between the receivable amounts of interest and dividends recorded in the accounting records in U.S. dollars and the amounts actually received.

 

Foreign currency denominated assets may involve risks not typically associated with domestic transactions, including unanticipated movements in exchange currency rates, the degree of government supervision and regulation of security markets, and the possibility of political or economic instability.

 

Forward foreign currency contracts: The Fund may enter into forward foreign currency contracts to hedge against exchange rate risk arising from investments in securities denominated in foreign currencies. Contracts are valued at the contractual forward rate and are marked to market daily, with the change in value recorded as an unrealized gain or loss. When the contracts are closed a realized gain or loss is incurred. Risks may arise from changes in market value of the underlying currencies and from the possible inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts.

 

Dividend distributions: Dividend and capital gains distributions are typically declared and reinvested annually and are generally paid and reinvested on the business day following the ex-date.

NOTE  2. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

 

AEGON/Transamerica Fund Advisers, Inc. (“ATFA”) is the Fund’s investment adviser. AEGON/Transamerica Fund Services, Inc. (“ATFS”) is the Fund’s administrator and transfer agent. AFSG Securities Corp. (“AFSG”) is the Fund’s distributor. AFSG is 100% owned by AUSA Holding Company (“AUSA”). ATFA is a directly owned sub- sidiary of Western Reserve Life Assurance Co. of Ohio (78%) (“WRL”) and AUSA (22%). ATFS is a wholly owned subsidiary of WRL. AUSA and WRL are wholly owned indirect subsidiaries of AEGON NV, a Netherlands corporation.

 

Certain officers and directors of the Fund are also officers and/or directors of ATFA, ATFS, AFSG and WRL. No affiliated officer or director receives any compensation directly from the Fund.

 

Investment advisory fees: The Fund pays management fees to ATFA based on average daily net assets (“ANA”) at the following rate:

 

0.80% of ANA

 

ATFA has contractually agreed to waive its advisory fee and will reimburse the Fund to the extent that operating expenses, excluding 12b-1 fees, exceed the following stated annual limit:

 

0.85% Expense Limit

 

If total fund expenses fall below the annual expense limitations agreed to by the adviser within the succeeding three years, the Fund may be required to pay the adviser a portion or all of the waived advisory fees.

 

There are no amounts subject to recapture at June 30, 2004.

 

The sub-adviser, Janus Capital Management, LLC, has agreed to a pricing discount based on the aggregate assets that they manage in the ATSF and Transamerica IDEX Mutual Funds. The amount of the discount received by the Fund at June 30, 2004 was $62.

 

Distribution and service fees: The Fund adopted a distribution plan (“Distribution Plan”) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Pursuant to the Distribution Plan, ATSF entered into a Distribution Agreement with AFSG effective May 1, 1999.

 

Under the Distribution Plan and Distribution Agreement on the Initial Class shares, AFSG, on behalf of the Fund, is authorized to pay various service providers, as direct payment for expenses incurred in connection with distribution of the Fund’s shares, amounts equal to actual expenses associated with distributing the shares.

 

The Distribution Plan on the Service Class shares requires ATSF to pay distribution fees to AFSG as compensation for its activities, not as reimbursement for specific expenses. The fee on the Service Class is paid to the insurance companies for providing services and account maintenance for their policyholders who invest in the variable insurance products which invest in the Service Class shares.

 

The Fund is authorized under the 12b-1 plan to pay fees on each class up to the following limits:

 

Initial Class

   0.15%

Service Class

   0.25%

 

AFSG has determined that it will not seek payment by the Fund of the distribution expenses incurred with respect to the Initial Class shares before April 30, 2005. Prior to AFSG seeking reimbursement of future expenses, policy and contract owners will be notified in advance. The Fund will pay fees relating to Service Class shares.

 

Administrative services: The Fund has entered into an agreement with ATFS for financial and legal fund administration services, which includes such items as compliance, expenses, financial statements and other reporting, distributions, tax returns, prospectus preparation, board of directors meeting support, transfer agency and other legal matters. The Legal fees on the Statement of Operations are for fees paid to external legal counsel. The Fund paid ATFS $126 for Administration fees for the period ended June 30, 2004.

 

Deferred compensation plan: Each eligible Fund Director may elect participation in the Deferred Compensation Plan for Directors of ATSF (“the Plan”). Under the Plan, such Directors may defer payment of a percentage of their total fees earned as a Fund Director. These deferred amounts may be invested in any portfolio of Transamerica IDEX Mutual Funds, an affiliate of the Fund. At June 30, 2004, the value of invested plan amounts was $64. Invested plan amounts and the total liability for deferred compensation to the Directors under the Plan at June 30, 2004, are included in Net assets in the accompanying Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

NOTE  1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The AEGON/Transamerica Series Fund, Inc. (“ATSF”) is a Maryland corporation registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. ATSF serves as a funding vehicle for variable life insurance, variable annuity and group annuity products. Jennison Growth (“the Fund”), part of ATSF, began operations as part of the Endeavor Series Trust, on November 18, 1996. The Fund became part of ATSF on May 1, 2002.

 

In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties, which provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote.

 

See the Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information for a description of the Fund’s investment objective.

 

In preparing the Fund’s financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with GAAP.

 

Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers two classes of shares, an Initial Class and a Service Class. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses.

 

Pricing of shares: The Fund prices its shares on the basis of the net asset value of each class of shares of the Fund, which is determined as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) (generally 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time) on each day on which the NYSE is open for trading (other than a day on which there are insufficient changes in the value of the Fund’s portfolio securities to materially affect the Fund’s net asset value or a day on which no shares are tendered for redemption and no order to purchase any shares is received).

 

Security valuations: Fund investments traded on an exchange are valued at the closing price on the day of valuation on the exchange where the security is principally traded.

 

Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the last quoted bid price.

 

Debt securities are valued by independent pricing services; however, those that mature in sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market.

 

Investment company securities are valued at the net asset value of the underlying portfolio.

 

Other securities for which quotations are not readily available also are valued at fair market value as determined in good faith using guidelines established by and under the supervision of the Board of Directors, and the Fund’s Valuation Committee. These guidelines may include: the type of security; any restrictions on its resale; financial or business news of the issuer; similar or related securities that are actively trading; related corporate actions; and other significant events occurring after the close of trading in the security.

 

Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investors Bank & Trust Company (“IBT”). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at June 30, 2004, was paying an interest rate of 0.75%.

 

Repurchase agreements: The Fund is authorized to enter into repurchase agreements. The Fund, through IBT, receives delivery of the underlying securities, the value of which at the time of purchase is required to be an amount equal to at least 100% of the resale price. Repurchase agreements involve the risk that the seller will fail to repurchase the security, as agreed. In that case, the Fund will bear the risk of value fluctuations until the security can be sold and may encounter delays and incur costs in liquidating the security. In the event of bankruptcy or insolvency of the seller, delays and costs are incurred.

 

Directed brokerage: The sub-adviser, to the extent consistent with the best execution and usual commission rate policies and practices, may place security transactions of the Fund with broker/dealers with which ATSF has established a Directed Brokerage Program. A Directed Brokerage Program is any arrangement under which a broker/dealer applies a portion of the commissions received by such broker/dealer on the security transactions to the Fund. In no event will commissions paid by the Fund be used to pay expenses that would otherwise be borne by any other funds within ATSF, or by any other party. Directed commissions for the period ended June 30, 2004, of $20 are included in net realized gains in the Statement of Operations.

 

Securities lending: The Fund may lend securities to enhance fund earnings from investing cash collateral received in making such loans to qualified borrowers (typically broker/dealers). The Fund has engaged its custodian bank, IBT, as a lending agent to administer its securities lending program. IBT earned $5 of program net income for its services. When the Fund makes a security loan, it receives cash collateral as protection against the risk that the borrower will default on the loan, and records an asset for the cash invested collateral and a liability for the return of the collateral.

 

Loans of securities are required to be secured by collateral at least equal to 102% of the value of the securities at inception of the loan, and not

less then 100% thereafter. The Fund may invest cash collateral in short-term money market instruments including: U.S. Treasury Bills, U.S. agency obligations, commercial paper, money market mutual funds, repurchase agreements and other highly rated, liquid investments. During the life of securities loans, the collateral and securities loaned remain subject to fluctuation in value. IBT marks to market securities loaned and the collateral each business day. If additional collateral is due (at least $1), IBT collects additional cash collateral from the borrowers. Although securities loaned will be fully collateralized at all times, IBT may experience delays in, or may be prevented from, recovering the collateral on behalf of the Fund. The Fund may recall a loaned security position at any time from the borrower through IBT. In the event the borrower fails to timely return a recalled security, IBT may indemnify the Fund by purchasing replacement securities for the Fund at its own expense and claiming the collateral to fund such a purchase. IBT absorbs the loss if the collateral value is not sufficient to cover the cost of the replacement securities. If replacement securities are not available, IBT will credit the equivalent cash value to the Fund.

 

While a security is on loan, the Fund does not have the right to vote that security. However, if time permits, the Fund will attempt to recall a security on loan and vote the proxy.

 

Income from securities lending is included in the Statement of Operations. The amount of collateral and value of securities on loan are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as well as in the Schedule of Investments.

 

Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the first-in, first-out basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, in the case of foreign securities, as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, including accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis commencing on the settlement date.

 

Dividend distributions: Dividend and capital gains distributions are typically declared and reinvested annually and are generally paid and reinvested on the business day following the ex-date.

 

NOTE  2. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

 

AEGON/Transamerica Fund Advisers, Inc. (“ATFA”) is the Fund’s investment adviser. AEGON/Transamerica Fund Services, Inc. (“ATFS”) is the Fund’s administrator and transfer agent. AFSG Securities Corp. (“AFSG”) is the Fund’s distributor. AFSG is 100% owned by AUSA Holding Company (“AUSA”). ATFA is a directly owned subsidiary of Western Reserve Life Assurance Co. of Ohio (78%) (“WRL”) and AUSA (22%). ATFS is a wholly owned subsidiary of WRL. AUSA and WRL are wholly owned indirect subsidiaries of AEGON NV, a Netherlands corporation.

Certain officers and directors of the Fund are also officers and/or directors of ATFA, ATFS, AFSG and WRL. No affiliated officer or director receives any compensation directly from the Fund.

 

The following schedule reflects the percentage of fund assets owned by affiliated mutual funds (i.e. through the asset allocation funds):

 

     Net Assets

   % of
Net Assets


 

Asset Allocation–Growth Portfolio

   $ 33,565    21 %

Asset Allocation–Moderate Growth Portfolio

     79,016    50 %
    

  

Total

   $   112,581    71 %
    

  

 

 

Investment advisory fees: The Fund pays management fees to ATFA based on average daily net assets (“ANA”) at the following rate:

 

0.85% of ANA

 

ATFA has contractually agreed to waive its advisory fee and will reimburse the Fund to the extent that operating expenses, excluding 12b-1 fees, exceed the following stated annual limit:

 

0.99% Expense Limit

 

If total fund expenses fall below the annual expense limitations agreed to by the adviser within the succeeding three years, the Fund may be required to pay the adviser a portion or all of the waived advisory fees.

 

There are no amounts subject to recapture at June 30, 2004.

 

Distribution and service fees: The Fund adopted a distribution plan (“Distribution Plan”) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Pursuant to the Distribution Plan, ATSF entered into a Distribution Agreement with AFSG effective May 1, 1999.

 

Under the Distribution Plan and Distribution Agreement on the Initial Class shares, AFSG, on behalf of the Fund, is authorized to pay various service providers, as direct payment for expenses incurred in connection with distribution of the Fund’s shares, amounts equal to actual expenses associated with distributing the shares.

 

The Distribution Plan on the Service Class shares requires ATSF to pay distribution fees to AFSG as compensation for its activities, not as reimbursement for specific expenses. The fee on the Service Class is paid to the insurance companies for providing services and account maintenance for their policyholders who invest in the variable insurance products which invest in the Service Class shares.

 

The Fund is authorized under the 12b-1 plan to pay fees on each class up to the following limits:

 

Initial Class

   0.15%

Service Class

   0.25%

 

AFSG has determined that it will not seek payment by the Fund of the distribution expenses incurred with respect to the Initial Class shares before April 30, 2005. Prior to AFSG seeking reimbursement of future expenses, policy and contract owners will be notified in advance. The Fund will pay fees relating to Service Class shares.

Deferred compensation plan: Each eligible Fund Director may elect participation in the Deferred Compensation Plan for Directors of ATSF (“the Plan”). Under the Plan, such Directors may defer payment of a percentage of their total fees earned as a Fund Director. These deferred amounts may be invested in any portfolio of Transamerica IDEX Mutual Funds, an affiliate of the Fund. At June 30, 2004, the value of invested plan amounts was $6.

Long-Term excluding U.S. Government

     58,635

NOTE  4. FEDERAL INCOME TAX MATTERS

 

The Fund has not made any provision for federal income taxes due to its policy to distribute all of its taxable income and capital gains to its shareholders and otherwise qualify as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for items including, but not limited to, wash sales, net operating losses and capital loss carryforwards.

 

The capital loss carryforwards are available to offset future realized capital gains through the period listed:

 

Capital Loss
Carryforward


   Available through

$4,640    December 31, 2010

 

The Fund has elected to treat the net capital losses incurred in the two month period prior to December 31, 2003 of $459 (Post-October Loss Deferred) as having been incurred in the fiscal year ending December 31, 2004.

 

The aggregate cost of investments and composition of unrealized appreciation (depreciation) for federal income tax purposes as of June 30, 2004, are as follows:

 

Federal Tax Cost Basis

   $   150,538  
    


Unrealized Appreciation

   $ 23,966  

Unrealized (Depreciation)

     (2,579 )

NOTE  1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The AEGON/Transamerica Series Fund, Inc. (“ATSF”) is a Maryland corporation registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. ATSF serves as a funding vehicle for variable life insurance, variable annuity and group annuity products. J.P. Morgan Enhanced Index (“the Fund”), part of ATSF, began operations as part of the Endeavor Series Trust, on May 2, 1997. The Fund became part of ATSF on May 1, 2002.

 

In the normal course of business the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties, which provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote.

 

See the Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information for a description of the Fund’s investment objective.

 

In preparing the Fund’s financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with GAAP.

 

Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers two classes of shares, an Initial Class and a Service Class. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses.

 

Pricing of shares: The Fund prices its shares on the basis of the net asset value of each class of shares of the Fund, which is determined as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) (generally 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time) on each day on which the NYSE is open for trading (other than a day on which there are insufficient changes in the value of the Fund’s portfolio securities to materially affect the Fund’s net asset value or a day on which no shares are tendered for redemption and no order to purchase any shares is received).

 

Security valuations: Fund investments traded on an exchange are valued at the closing price on the day of valuation on the exchange where the security is principally traded.

Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the last quoted bid price.

 

Debt securities are valued by independent pricing services; however, those that mature in sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market.

 

Investment company securities are valued at the net asset value of the underlying portfolio.

 

Other securities for which quotations are not readily available also are valued at fair market value as determined in good faith using guidelines established by and under the supervision of the Board of Directors, and the Fund’s Valuation Committee. These guidelines may include: the type of security; any restrictions on its resale; financial or business news of the issuer; similar or related securities that are actively trading; related corporate actions; and other significant events occurring after the close of trading in the security.

 

Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investors Bank & Trust Company (“IBT”). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at June 30, 2004, was paying an interest rate of 0.75%.

 

Repurchase agreements: The Fund is authorized to enter into repurchase agreements. The Fund, through IBT, receives delivery of the underlying securities, the value of which at the time of purchase is required to be an amount equal to at least 100% of the resale price. Repurchase agreements involve the risk that the seller will fail to repurchase the security, as agreed. In that case, the Fund will bear the risk of value fluctuations until the security can be sold and may encounter delays and incur costs in liquidating the security. In the event of bankruptcy or insolvency of the seller, delays and costs are incurred.

 

Securities lending: The Fund may lend securities to enhance fund earnings from investing cash collateral received in making such loans to qualified borrowers (typically broker/dealers). The Fund has engaged its custodian bank, IBT, as a lending agent to administer its securities lending program. IBT earned $3 of program net income for its services. When the Fund makes a security loan, it receives cash collateral as protection against the risk that the borrower will default on the loan, and records an asset for the cash invested collateral and a liability for the return of the collateral.

 

Loans of securities are required to be secured by collateral at least equal to 102% of the value of the securities at inception of the loan, and not less then 100% thereafter. The Fund may invest cash collateral in short-term money market instruments including: U.S. Treasury Bills, U.S. agency obligations, commercial paper, money market mutual funds, repurchase agreements and other highly rated, liquid investments. During the life of securities loans, the collateral and securities loaned remain subject to fluctuation in value. IBT marks to market securities loaned and the collateral each business day. If additional collateral is

NOTE  1–(continued)

 

due (at least $1), IBT collects additional cash collateral from the borrowers. Although securities loaned will be fully collateralized at all times, IBT may experience delays in, or may be prevented from, recovering the collateral on behalf of the Fund. The Fund may recall a loaned security position at any time from the borrower through IBT. In the event the borrower fails to timely return a recalled security, IBT may indemnify the Fund by purchasing replacement securities for the Fund at its own expense and claiming the collateral to fund such a purchase. IBT absorbs the loss if the collateral value is not sufficient to cover the cost of the replacement securities. If replacement securities are not available, IBT will credit the equivalent cash value to the Fund.

 

While a security is on loan, the Fund does not have the right to vote that security. However, if time permits, the Fund will attempt to recall a security on loan and vote the proxy.

 

Income from securities lending is included in the Statement of Operations. The amount of collateral and value of securities on loan are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as well as in the Schedule of Investments.

 

Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the first-in, first-out basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, in the case of foreign securities, as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, including accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis commencing on the settlement date.

 

Futures contracts: The Fund may enter into futures contracts to manage exposure to market, interest rate or currency fluctuations. Futures contracts are valued at the settlement price established each day by the board of trade or exchange on which they are traded. The primary risks associated with futures contracts are imperfect correlation between the change in market value of the securities held and the prices of futures contracts; the possibility of an illiquid market and inability of the counterpart to meet the contract terms.

 

The underlying face amount of open futures contracts at June 30, 2004, are listed in the Schedule of Investments. The variation margin receivable or payable, as applicable, is included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Variation margin represents the additional payments due or excess deposits made in order to maintain the equity account at the required margin level.

 

Dividend distributions: Dividend and capital gains distributions are typically declared and reinvested annually and are generally paid and reinvested on the business day following the ex-date.

NOTE  2. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

 

AEGON/Transamerica Fund Advisers, Inc. (“ATFA”) is the Fund’s investment adviser. AEGON/Transamerica Fund Services, Inc. (“ATFS”) is the Fund’s administrator and transfer agent. AFSG Securities Corp. (“AFSG”) is the Fund’s distributor. AFSG is 100% owned by AUSA Holding Company (“AUSA”). ATFA is a directly owned subsidiary of Western Reserve Life Assurance Co. of Ohio (78%) (“WRL”) and AUSA (22%). ATFS is a wholly owned subsidiary of WRL. AUSA and WRL are wholly owned indirect subsidiaries of AEGON NV, a Netherlands corporation.

 

Certain officers and directors of the Fund are also officers and/or directors of ATFA, ATFS, AFSG and WRL. No affiliated officer or director receives any compensation directly from the Fund.

 

Investment advisory fees: The Fund pays management fees to ATFA based on average daily net assets (“ANA”) at the following rate:

 

0.75% of ANA

 

ATFA has contractually agreed to waive its advisory fee and will reimburse the Fund to the extent that operating expenses, excluding 12b-1 fees, exceed the following stated annual limit:

 

0.85% Expense Limit

 

If total fund expenses fall below the annual expense limitations agreed to by the adviser within the succeeding three years, the Fund may be required to pay the adviser a portion or all of the waived advisory fees.

 

There are no amounts subject to recapture at June 30, 2004.

 

Distribution and service fees: The Fund adopted a distribution plan (“Distribution Plan”) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Pursuant to the Distribution Plan, ATSF entered into a Distribution Agreement with AFSG effective May 1, 1999.

 

Under the Distribution Plan and Distribution Agreement on the Initial Class shares, AFSG, on behalf of the Fund, is authorized to pay various service providers, as direct payment for expenses incurred in connection with distribution of the Fund’s shares, amounts equal to actual expenses associated with distributing the shares.

 

The Distribution Plan on the Service Class shares requires ATSF to pay distribution fees to AFSG as compensation for its activities, not as reimbursement for specific expenses. The fee on the Service Class is paid to the insurance companies for providing services and account maintenance for their policyholders who invest in the variable insurance products which invest in the Service Class shares.

 

The Fund is authorized under the 12b-1 plan to pay fees on each class up to the following limits:

 

Initial Class

   0.15%

Service Class

   0.25%

NOTE  2–(continued)

 

AFSG has determined that it will not seek payment by the Fund of the distribution expenses incurred with respect to the Initial Class shares before April 30, 2005. Prior to AFSG seeking reimbursement of future expenses, policy and contract owners will be notified in advance. The Fund will pay fees relating to Service Class shares.

 

Administrative services: The Fund has entered into an agreement with ATFS for financial and legal fund administration services, which includes such items as compliance, expenses, financial statements and other reporting, distributions, tax returns, prospectus preparation, board of directors meeting support, transfer agency and other legal matters. The Legal fees on the Statement of Operations are for fees paid to external legal counsel. The Fund paid ATFS $18 for Administration fees for the period ended June 30, 2004.

 

Deferred compensation plan: Each eligible Fund Director may elect participation in the Deferred Compensation Plan for Directors of ATSF (“the Plan”). Under the Plan, such Directors may defer payment of a percentage of their total fees earned as a Fund Director. These deferred amounts may be invested in any portfolio of Transamerica IDEX Mutual Funds, an affiliate of the Fund. At June 30, 2004, the value of invested plan amounts was $9. Invested plan amounts and the total liability for deferred compensation to the Directors under the Plan at June 30, 2004, are included in Net assets in the accompanying Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

 

NOTE  3. INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS

     73,178

U.S. Government

     1,614

 

NOTE  4. FEDERAL INCOME TAX MATTERS

 

The Fund has not made any provision for federal income taxes due to its policy to distribute all of its taxable income and capital gains to its shareholders and otherwise qualify as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for items including, but not limited to, wash sales, foreign currency transactions, and capital loss carryforwards.

 

The capital loss carryforwards are available to offset future realized capital gains through the periods listed:

NOTE  1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The AEGON/Transamerica Series Fund, Inc. (“ATSF”) is a Maryland corporation registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. ATSF serves as a funding vehicle for variable life insurance, variable annuity and group annuity products. J.P. Morgan Mid Cap Value (“the Fund”), part of ATSF, began operations on May 3, 1999.

 

On May 3, 2004, the Fund changed its name from Dreyfus Mid Cap to J.P. Morgan Mid Cap Value and changed its sub-adviser from The Dreyfus Corporation to J.P. Morgan Investment Management, Inc.

 

In the normal course of business the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties, which provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote.

 

See the Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information for a description of the Fund’s investment objective.

 

In preparing the Fund’s financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with GAAP.

 

Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers two classes of shares, an Initial Class and a Service Class. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses.

 

Pricing of shares: The Fund prices its shares on the basis of the net asset value of each class of shares of the Fund, which is determined as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) (generally 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time) on each day on which the NYSE is open for trading (other than a day on which there are insufficient changes in the value of the Fund’s portfolio securities to materially affect the Fund’s net asset value or a day on which no shares are tendered for redemption and no order to purchase any shares is received).

 

Security valuations: Fund investments traded on an exchange are valued at the closing price on the day of valuation on the exchange where the security is principally traded.

Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the last quoted bid price.

 

Debt securities are valued by independent pricing services; however, those that mature in sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market.

 

Investment company securities are valued at the net asset value of the underlying portfolio.

 

Foreign securities generally are valued based on quotations from the primary market in which they are traded and are translated from the local currency into U.S. dollars using closing exchange rates. Many foreign securities markets are open for trading at times when the U.S. markets are closed for trading, and many foreign securities markets close for trading before the close of the NYSE. The value of foreign securities may be affected significantly on a day that the NYSE is closed and an investor is unable to purchase or redeem shares. If a significant market event impacting the value of a portfolio security (e.g., natural disaster, company announcement, market volatility) occurs subsequent to the close of trading in the security, but prior to the calculation of the Fund’s net asset value per share, market quotations for that security may be determined to be unreliable and, accordingly, not “readily available.” If market quotations are not readily available, and the impact of such a significant market event materially affects the net asset value per share of the Fund, an affected portfolio security will be valued at fair market value as determined in good faith using guidelines adopted by the Board of Directors of the Fund, under the supervision of the Fund’s Valuation Committee. Factors that may be considered to value foreign securities at fair market value may include, among others: the value of other securities traded on other markets, foreign currency exchange activity and the trading of financial products tied to foreign securities.

 

Other securities for which quotations are not readily available also are valued at fair market value as determined in good faith using guidelines established by and under the supervision of the Board of Directors, and the Fund’s Valuation Committee. These guidelines may include: the type of security; any restrictions on its resale; financial or business news of the issuer; similar or related securities that are actively trading; related corporate actions; and other significant events occurring after the close of trading in the security.

 

Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investors Bank & Trust Company (“IBT”). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at June 30, 2004, was paying an interest rate of 0.75%.

 

Repurchase agreements: The Fund is authorized to enter into repurchase agreements. The Fund, through IBT, receives delivery of the underlying securities, the value of which at the time of purchase is required to be an amount equal to at least 100% of the resale price. Repurchase agreements involve the risk that the seller will fail to repurchase the security, as agreed. In that case, the Fund will bear the risk of value fluctuations until the security can be sold and may

encounter delays and incur costs in liquidating the security. In the event of bankruptcy or insolvency of the seller, delays and costs are incurred.

 

Directed brokerage: The sub-adviser, to the extent consistent with the best execution and usual commission rate policies and practices, may place security transactions of the Fund with broker/dealers with which ATSF has established a Directed Brokerage Program. A Directed Brokerage Program is any arrangement under which a broker/dealer applies a portion of the commissions received by such broker/dealer on the security transactions to the Fund. In no event will commissions paid by the Fund be used to pay expenses that would otherwise be borne by any other funds within ATSF, or by any other party. Directed commissions for the period ended June 30, 2004, of $18 are included in net realized gains in the Statement of Operations.

 

Securities lending: The Fund may lend securities to enhance fund earnings from investing cash collateral received in making such loans to qualified borrowers (typically broker/dealers). The Fund has engaged its custodian bank, IBT, as a lending agent to administer its securities lending program. IBT earned $3 of program net income for its services. When the Fund makes a security loan, it receives cash collateral as protection against the risk that the borrower will default on the loan, and records an asset for the cash invested collateral and a liability for the return of the collateral.

 

Loans of securities are required to be secured by collateral at least equal to 102% of the value of the securities at inception of the loan, and not less then 100% thereafter. The Fund may invest cash collateral in short-term money market instruments including: U.S. Treasury Bills, U.S. agency obligations, commercial paper, money market mutual funds, repurchase agreements and other highly rated, liquid investments. During the life of securities loans, the collateral and securities loaned remain subject to fluctuation in value. IBT marks to market securities loaned and the collateral each business day. If additional collateral is due (at least $1), IBT collects additional cash collateral from the borrowers. Although securities loaned will be fully collateralized at all times, IBT may experience delays in, or may be prevented from, recovering the collateral on behalf of the Fund. The Fund may recall a loaned security position at any time from the borrower through IBT. In the event the borrower fails to timely return a recalled security, IBT may indemnify the Fund by purchasing replacement securities for the Fund at its own expense and claiming the collateral to fund such a purchase. IBT absorbs the loss if the collateral value is not sufficient to cover the cost of the replacement securities. If replacement securities are not available, IBT will credit the equivalent cash value to the Fund.

 

While a security is on loan, the Fund does not have the right to vote that security. However, if time permits, the Fund will attempt to recall a security on loan and vote the proxy.

Income from securities lending is included in the Statement of Operations. The amount of collateral and value of securities on loan are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as well as in the Schedule of Investments.

 

Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the first-in, first-out basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex- dividend date or, in the case of foreign securities, as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, including accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis commencing on the settlement date.

 

Dividend distributions: Dividend and capital gains distributions are typically declared and reinvested annually and are generally paid and reinvested on the business day following the ex-date.

Distribution and service fees: The Fund adopted a distribution plan (“Distribution Plan”) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Pursuant to the Distribution Plan, ATSF entered into a Distribution Agreement with AFSG effective May 1, 1999.

 

Under the Distribution Plan and Distribution Agreement on the Initial Class shares, AFSG, on behalf of the Fund, is authorized to pay various

service providers, as direct payment for expenses incurred in connection with distribution of the Fund’s shares, amounts equal to actual expenses associated with distributing the shares.

 

The Distribution Plan on the Service Class shares requires ATSF to pay distribution fees to AFSG as compensation for its activities, not as reimbursement for specific expenses. The fee on the Service Class is

paid to the insurance companies for providing services and account maintenance for their policyholders who invest in the variable insurance products which invest in the Service Class shares.

 

The Fund is authorized under the 12b-1 plan to pay fees on each class up to the following limits:

 

Initial Class

   0.15%

Service Class

   0.25%

 

AFSG has determined that it will not seek payment by the Fund of the distribution expenses incurred with respect to the Initial Class shares before April 30, 2005. Prior to AFSG seeking reimbursement of future expenses, policy and contract owners will be notified in advance. The Fund will pay fees relating to Service Class shares.

 

Administrative services: The Fund has entered into an agreement with ATFS for financial and legal fund administration services, which includes such items as compliance, expenses, financial statements and other reporting, distributions, tax returns, prospectus preparation, board of directors meeting support, transfer agency and other legal matters. The Legal fees on the Statement of Operations are for fees paid to external legal counsel. The Fund paid ATFS $7 for Administration fees for the period ended June 30, 2004.

 

Brokerage Commissions: Brokerage commissions incurred on security transactions placed with an affiliate of the sub-advisor for the period ended June 30, 2004, were $2.

 

Deferred compensation plan: Each eligible Fund Director may elect participation in the Deferred Compensation Plan for Directors of ATSF (“the Plan”). Under the Plan, such Directors may defer payment of a percentage of their total fees earned as a Fund Director. These deferred amounts may be invested in any portfolio of Transamerica IDEX Mutual Funds, an affiliate of the Fund. At June 30, 2004, the value of invested plan amounts was $5. Invested plan amounts and the total liability for deferred compensation to the Directors under the Plan at June 30, 2004, are included in Net assets in the accompanying Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

 

NOTE  3. INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS

     111,583

NOTE  4. FEDERAL INCOME TAX MATTERS

 

The Fund has not made any provision for federal income taxes due to its policy to distribute all of its taxable income and capital gains to its shareholders and otherwise qualify as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for items including, but not limited to, wash sales, foreign currency transactions, and capital loss carryforwards.

NOTE  1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The AEGON/Transamerica Series Fund, Inc. (“ATSF”) is a Maryland corporation registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. ATSF serves as a funding vehicle for variable life insurance, variable annuity and group annuity products. Marsico Growth (“the Fund”), part of ATSF, began operations on May 3, 1999.

 

In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties, which provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote.

 

See the Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information for a description of the Fund’s investment objective.

 

In preparing the Fund’s financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with GAAP.

 

Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers two classes of shares, an Initial Class and a Service Class. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses.

 

Pricing of shares: The Fund prices its shares on the basis of the net asset value of each class of shares of the Fund, which is determined as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) (generally 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time) on each day on which the NYSE is open for trading (other than a day on which there are insufficient changes in the value of the Fund’s portfolio securities to materially affect the Fund’s net asset value or a day on which no shares are tendered for redemption and no order to purchase any shares is received).

 

Security valuations: Fund investments traded on an exchange are valued at the closing price on the day of valuation on the exchange where the security is principally traded.

 

Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the last quoted bid price.

Debt securities are valued by independent pricing services; however, those that mature in sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market.

 

Investment company securities are valued at the net asset value of the underlying portfolio.

 

Foreign securities generally are valued based on quotations from the primary market in which they are traded and are translated from the local currency into U.S. dollars using closing exchange rates. Many foreign securities markets are open for trading at times when the U.S. markets are closed for trading, and many foreign securities markets close for trading before the close of the NYSE. The value of foreign securities may be affected significantly on a day that the NYSE is closed and an investor is unable to purchase or redeem shares. If a significant market event impacting the value of a portfolio security (e.g., natural disaster, company announcement, market volatility) occurs subsequent to the close of trading in the security, but prior to the calculation of the Fund’s net asset value per share, market quotations for that security may be determined to be unreliable and, accordingly, not “readily available.” If market quotations are not readily available, and the impact of such a significant market event materially affects the net asset value per share of the Fund, an affected portfolio security will be valued at fair market value as determined in good faith using guidelines adopted by the Board of Directors of the Fund, under the supervision of the Fund’s Valuation Committee. Factors that may be considered to value foreign securities at fair market value may include, among others: the value of other securities traded on other markets, foreign currency exchange activity and the trading of financial products tied to foreign securities.

 

Other securities for which quotations are not readily available also are valued at fair market value as determined in good faith using guidelines established by and under the supervision of the Board of Directors, and the Fund’s Valuation Committee. These guidelines may include: the type of security; any restrictions on its resale; financial or business news of the issuer; similar or related securities that are actively trading; related corporate actions; and other significant events occurring after the close of trading in the security.

 

Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investors Bank & Trust Company (“IBT”). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at June 30, 2004, was paying an interest rate of 0.75%.

 

Repurchase agreements: The Fund is authorized to enter into repurchase agreements. The Fund, through IBT, receives delivery of the underlying securities, the value of which at the time of purchase is required to be an amount equal to at least 100% of the resale price. Repurchase agreements involve the risk that the seller will fail to repurchase the security, as agreed. In that case, the Fund will bear the risk of value fluctuations until the security can be sold and may encounter delays and incur costs in liquidating the security. In the event of bankruptcy or insolvency of the seller, delays and costs are incurred.

NOTE  1–(continued)

 

 

Directed brokerage: The sub-adviser, to the extent consistent with the best execution and usual commission rate policies and practices, may place security transactions of the Fund with broker/dealers with which ATSF has established a Directed Brokerage Program. A Directed Brokerage Program is any arrangement under which a broker/dealer applies a portion of the commissions received by such broker/dealer on the security transactions to the Fund. In no event will commissions paid by the Fund be used to pay expenses that would otherwise be borne by any other funds within ATSF, or by any other party. Directed commissions for the period ended June 30, 2004, of $13 are included in net realized gains in the Statement of Operations.

 

Securities lending: The Fund may lend securities to enhance fund earnings from investing cash collateral received in making such loans to qualified borrowers (typically broker/dealers). The Fund has engaged its custodian bank, IBT, as a lending agent to administer its securities lending program. IBT earned $2 of program net income for its services. When the Fund makes a security loan, it receives cash collateral as protection against the risk that the borrower will default on the loan, and records an asset for the cash invested collateral and a liability for the return of the collateral.

 

Loans of securities are required to be secured by collateral at least equal to 102% of the value of the securities at inception of the loan, and not less then 100% thereafter. The Fund may invest cash collateral in short-term money market instruments including: U.S. Treasury Bills, U.S. agency obligations, commercial paper, money market mutual funds, repurchase agreements and other highly rated, liquid investments. During the life of securities loans, the collateral and securities loaned remain subject to fluctuation in value. IBT marks to market securities loaned and the collateral each business day. If additional collateral is due (at least $1), IBT collects additional cash collateral from the borrowers. Although securities loaned will be fully collateralized at all times, IBT may experience delays in, or may be prevented from, recovering the collateral on behalf of the Fund. The Fund may recall a loaned security position at any time from the borrower through IBT. In the event the borrower fails to timely return a recalled security, IBT may indemnify the Fund by purchasing replacement securities for the Fund at its own expense and claiming the collateral to fund such a purchase. IBT absorbs the loss if the collateral value is not sufficient to cover the cost of the replacement securities. If replacement securities are not available, IBT will credit the equivalent cash value to the Fund.

 

While a security is on loan, the Fund does not have the right to vote that security. However, if time permits, the Fund will attempt to recall a security on loan and vote the proxy.

 

Income from securities lending is included in the Statement of Operations. The amount of collateral and value of securities on loan are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as well as in the Schedule of Investments.

Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the first-in, first-out basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, in the case of foreign securities, as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, including accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis commencing on the settlement date.

 

Foreign currency denominated investments: The accounting records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the closing exchange rate each day. The cost of foreign securities is translated at the exchange rate in effect when the investment was acquired. The Fund combines fluctuations from currency exchange rates and fluctuations in value when computing net realized and unrealized gains or losses from investments.

 

Net foreign currency gains and losses resulting from changes in exchange rates include: 1) foreign currency fluctuations between trade date and settlement date of investment security transactions; 2) gains and losses on forward foreign currency contracts; and 3) the difference between the receivable amounts of interest and dividends recorded in the accounting records in U.S. dollars and the amounts actually received.

 

Foreign currency denominated assets may involve risks not typically associated with domestic transactions, including unanticipated movements in exchange currency rates, the degree of government supervision and regulation of security markets, and the possibility of political or economic instability.

 

Forward foreign currency contracts: The Fund may enter into forward foreign currency contracts to hedge against exchange rate risk arising from investments in securities denominated in foreign currencies. Contracts are valued at the contractual forward rate and are marked to market daily, with the change in value recorded as an unrealized gain or loss. When the contracts are closed a realized gain or loss is incurred. Risks may arise from changes in market value of the underlying currencies and from the possible inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts.

 

Dividend distributions: Dividend and capital gains distributions are typically declared and reinvested annually and are generally paid and reinvested on the business day following the ex-date.

NOTE  2–(continued)

 

Certain officers and directors of the Fund are also officers and/or directors of ATFA, ATFS, AFSG and WRL. No affiliated officer or director receives any compensation directly from the Fund.

 

The following schedule reflects the percentage of fund assets owned by affiliated mutual funds (i.e., through the asset allocation funds):

 

    Net Assets

   % of
Net Assets


 

Asset Allocation–Conservative Portfolio

  $ 7,823    6 %

Asset Allocation–Moderate Portfolio

    40,484    30 %
   

  

Total

  $ 48,307    36 %
   

  

 

Investment advisory fees: The Fund pays management fees to ATFA based on average daily net assets (“ANA”) at the following breakpoints:

 

0.80% of first $250 million

0.75% of the next $250 million of ANA

0.70% of the next $500 million of ANA

0.60% of ANA over $1 billion

 

ATFA has contractually agreed to waive its advisory fee and will reimburse the Fund to the extent that operating expenses, excluding 12b-1 fees, exceed the following stated annual limit:

 

1.00% Expense Limit

 

If total fund expenses fall below the annual expense limitations agreed to by the adviser within the succeeding three years, the Fund may be required to pay the adviser a portion or all of the waived advisory fees.

 

There are no amounts subject to recapture at June 30, 2004.

 

Distribution and service fees: The Fund adopted a distribution plan (“Distribution Plan”) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Pursuant to the Distribution Plan, ATSF entered into a Distribution Agreement with AFSG effective May 1, 1999.

 

Under the Distribution Plan and Distribution Agreement on the Initial Class shares, AFSG, on behalf of the Fund, is authorized to pay various service providers, as direct payment for expenses incurred in connection with distribution of the Fund’s shares, amounts equal to actual expenses associated with distributing the shares.

 

The Distribution Plan on the Service Class shares requires ATSF to pay distribution fees to AFSG as compensation for its activities, not as reimbursement for specific expenses. The fee on the Service Class is paid to the insurance companies for providing services and account maintenance for their policyholders who invest in the variable insurance products which invest in the Service Class shares.

 

The Fund is authorized under the 12b-1 plan to pay fees on each class up to the following limits:

 

Initial Class

   0.15%

Service Class

   0.25%

 

AFSG has determined that it will not seek payment by the Fund of the distribution expenses incurred with respect to the Initial Class shares

before April 30, 2005. Prior to AFSG seeking reimbursement of future expenses, policy and contract owners will be notified in advance. The Fund will pay fees relating to Service Class shares.

 

Administrative services: The Fund has entered into an agreement with ATFS for financial and legal fund administration services, which includes such items as compliance, expenses, financial statements and other reporting, distributions, tax returns, prospectus preparation, board of directors meeting support, transfer agency and other legal matters. The Legal fees on the Statement of Operations are for fees paid to external legal counsel. The Fund paid ATFS $10 for Administration fees for the period ended June 30, 2004.

 

Deferred compensation plan: Each eligible Fund Director may elect participation in the Deferred Compensation Plan for Directors of ATSF (“the Plan”). Under the Plan, such Directors may defer payment of a percentage of their total fees earned as a Fund Director. These deferred amounts may be invested in any portfolio of Transamerica IDEX Mutual Funds, an affiliate of the Fund. At June 30, 2004, the value of invested plan amounts was $5. Invested plan amounts and the total liability for deferred compensation to the Directors under the Plan at June 30, 2004, are included in Net assets in the accompanying Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

NOTE  4. FEDERAL INCOME TAX MATTERS

 

The Fund has not made any provision for federal income taxes due to its policy to distribute all of its taxable income and capital gains to its shareholders and otherwise qualify as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for items including, but not limited to, wash sales, foreign currency transactions, and capital loss carryforwards.

NOTE  1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The AEGON/Transamerica Series Fund, Inc. (“ATSF”) is a Maryland corporation registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. ATSF serves as a funding vehicle for variable life insurance, variable annuity and group annuity products. Mercury Large Cap Value (“the Fund”), part of ATSF, began operations on May 1, 1996.

 

On May 3, 2004, PBHG/NWQ Value Select acquired all the net assets of BlackRock Large Cap Value pursuant to a plan of reorganization approved by shareholders of BlackRock Large Cap Value. The acquisition was accomplished by a tax-free exchange of 66 shares of the Fund for the 109 shares of BlackRock Large Cap Value outstanding on April 30, 2004. BlackRock Large Cap Value’s net assets at that date $991, including $137 of unrealized depreciation, were combined with those of the Fund, resulting in combined net assets of $387,319.

 

On May 3, 2004, the Fund changed its name from PBHG/NWQ Value Select to Mercury Large Cap Value and changed its sub-advisers from Pilgrim Baxter & Associates, Inc. and NWQ Investment Management Company, Inc. to Fund Asset Management, L.P. doing business as Mercury Advisors.

 

In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties, which provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote.

 

See the Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information for a description of the Fund’s investment objective.

 

In preparing the Fund’s financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with GAAP.

 

Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers two classes of shares, an Initial Class and a Service Class. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses.

Pricing of shares: The Fund prices its shares on the basis of the net asset value of each class of shares of the Fund, which is determined as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) (generally 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time) on each day on which the NYSE is open for trading (other than a day on which there are insufficient changes in the value of the Fund’s portfolio securities to materially affect the Fund’s net asset value or a day on which no shares are tendered for redemption and no order to purchase any shares is received).

 

Security valuations: Fund investments traded on an exchange are valued at the closing price on the day of valuation on the exchange where the security is principally traded.

 

Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the last quoted bid price.

 

Debt securities are valued by independent pricing services; however, those that mature in sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market.

 

Investment company securities are valued at the net asset value of the underlying portfolio.

 

Other securities for which quotations are not readily available also are valued at fair market value as determined in good faith using guidelines established by and under the supervision of the Board of Directors, and the Fund’s Valuation Committee. These guidelines may include: the type of security; any restrictions on its resale; financial or business news of the issuer; similar or related securities that are actively trading; related corporate actions; and other significant events occurring after the close of trading in the security.

 

Overdraft: At June 30, 2004 the Fund was in a cash overdraft. The amount of the cash overdraft is included as Due to custodian in the accompanying Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The Fund pays monthly overdraft charges based on the average daily overdraft balance during the month. The average balance is multiplied by a rate equal to 0.50% plus the federal funds rate. As of June 30, 2004, this rate was 2.00%.

 

Repurchase agreements: The Fund is authorized to enter into repurchase agreements. The Fund, through Investors Bank & Trust Company (“IBT”), receives delivery of the underlying securities, the value of which at the time of purchase is required to be an amount equal to at least 100% of the resale price. Repurchase agreements involve the risk that the seller will fail to repurchase the security, as agreed. In that case, the Fund will bear the risk of value fluctuations until the security can be sold and may encounter delays and incur costs in liquidating the security. In the event of bankruptcy or insolvency of the seller, delays and costs are incurred.

 

Directed brokerage: The sub-adviser, to the extent consistent with the best execution and usual commission rate policies and practices, may place security transactions of the Fund with broker/dealers with which

ATSF has established a Directed Brokerage Program. A Directed Brokerage Program is any arrangement under which a broker/dealer applies a

portion of the commissions received by such broker/dealer on the security transactions to the Fund. In no event will commissions paid by the Fund be used to pay expenses that would otherwise be borne by any other funds within ATSF, or by any other party. Directed commissions for the period ended June 30, 2004, of $30 are included in net realized gains in the Statement of Operations.

 

Securities lending: The Fund may lend securities to enhance fund earnings from investing cash collateral received in making such loans to qualified borrowers (typically broker/dealers). The Fund has engaged its custodian bank, IBT, as a lending agent to administer its securities lending program. IBT earned $9 of program net income for its services. When the Fund makes a security loan, it receives cash collateral as protection against the risk that the borrower will default on the loan, and records an asset for the cash invested collateral and a liability for the return of the collateral.

 

Loans of securities are required to be secured by collateral at least equal to 102% of the value of the securities at inception of the loan, and not less then 100% thereafter. The Fund may invest cash collateral in short-term money market instruments including: U.S. Treasury Bills, U.S. agency obligations, commercial paper, money market mutual funds, repurchase agreements and other highly rated, liquid investments. During the life of securities loans, the collateral and securities loaned remain subject to fluctuation in value. IBT marks to market securities loaned and the collateral each business day. If additional collateral is due (at least $1), IBT collects additional cash collateral from the borrowers. Although securities loaned will be fully collateralized at all times, IBT may experience delays in, or may be prevented from, recovering the collateral on behalf of the Fund. The Fund may recall a loaned security position at any time from the borrower through IBT. In the event the borrower fails to timely return a recalled security, IBT may indemnify the Fund by purchasing replacement securities for the Fund at its own expense and claiming the collateral to fund such a purchase. IBT absorbs the loss if the collateral value is not sufficient to cover the cost of the replacement securities. If replacement securities are not available, IBT will credit the equivalent cash value to the Fund.

 

While a security is on loan, the Fund does not have the right to vote that security. However, if time permits, the Fund will attempt to recall a security on loan and vote the proxy.

 

Income from securities lending is included in the Statement of Operations. The amount of collateral and value of securities on loan are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as well as in the Schedule of Investments.

 

Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the first-in, first-out basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex- dividend date or, in the case of foreign securities, as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, including accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis commencing on the settlement date.

 

Dividend distributions: Dividend and capital gains distributions are typically declared and reinvested annually and are generally paid and reinvested on the business day following the ex-date.

NOTE  2–(continued)

 

If total fund expenses fall below the annual expense limitations agreed to by the adviser within the succeeding three years, the Fund may be required to pay the adviser a portion or all of the waived advisory fees.

 

There are no amounts subject to recapture at June 30, 2004.

 

Distribution and services fees: The Fund adopted a distribution plan (“Distribution Plan”) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Pursuant to the Distribution Plan, ATSF entered into a Distribution Agreement with AFSG effective May 1, 1999.

 

Under the Distribution Plan and Distribution Agreement on the Initial Class shares, AFSG, on behalf of the Fund, is authorized to pay various service providers, as direct payment for expenses incurred in connection with distribution of the Fund’s shares, amounts equal to actual expenses associated with distributing the shares.

 

The Distribution Plan on the Service Class shares requires ATSF to pay distribution fees to AFSG as compensation for its activities, not as reimbursement for specific expenses. The fee on the Service Class is

paid to the insurance companies for providing services and account maintenance for their policyholders who invest in the variable insurance products which invest in the Service Class shares.

 

The Fund is authorized under the 12b-1 plan to pay fees on each class up to the following limits:

 

Initial Class

   0.15%

Service Class

   0.25%

 

AFSG has determined that it will not seek payment by the Fund of the distribution expenses incurred with respect to the Initial Class shares before April 30, 2005. Prior to AFSG seeking reimbursement of future expenses, policy and contract owners will be notified in advance. The Fund will pay fees relating to Service Class shares.

 

Administrative services: The Fund has entered into an agreement with ATFS for financial and legal fund administration services, which includes such items as compliance, expenses, financial statements and other reporting, distributions, tax returns, prospectus preparation, board of directors meeting support, transfer agency and other legal matters. The Legal fees on the Statement of Operations are for fees paid to external legal counsel. The Fund paid ATFS $29, for Administration fees, for the period ended June 30, 2004.

Deferred compensation plan: Each eligible Fund Director may elect participation in the Deferred Compensation Plan for Directors of ATSF (“the Plan”). Under the Plan, such Directors may defer payment of a percentage of their total fees earned as a Fund Director. These deferred amounts may be invested in any portfolio of Transamerica IDEX Mutual Funds, an affiliate of the Fund. At June 30, 2004, the value of invested plan amounts was $15. Invested plan amounts and the total liability for deferred compensation to the Directors under the Plan at June 30, 2004, are included in Net assets in the accompanying Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

 

NOTE  3. INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS

 

The cost of securities purchased and proceeds from securities sold (excluding short-term securities) for the period ended June 30, 2004, were as follows:

 

Purchases of securities:

      

Long-Term excluding U.S. Government

   $ 351,030

U.S. Government

    

Proceeds from maturities and sales of securities:

      

Long-Term excluding U.S. Government

     332,091

U.S. Government

    

 

NOTE  4. FEDERAL INCOME TAX MATTERS

 

The Fund has not made any provision for federal income taxes due to its policy to distribute all of its taxable income and capital gains to its shareholders and otherwise qualify as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for items including, but not limited to, wash sales and capital loss carryforwards.

 

The Fund has elected to treat the net capital losses incurred in the two month period prior to December 31, 2003, of $1,703 (Post-October Loss Deferred) as having been incurred in the fiscal year ending December 31, 2004.

 

The aggregate cost of investments and composition of unrealized appreciation (depreciation) for federal income tax purposes as of June 30, 2004, are as follows:

 

Federal Tax Cost Basis

   $   402,310  
    


Unrealized Appreciation

   $ 34,779  

Unrealized (Depreciation)

     (2,515 )
    


Net Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation)

   $ 32,264  
    


 

NOTE  5. OTHER MATTERS

 

ATSF, and certain of its affiliated entities, have received requests for information from the Staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission in connection with market timing and late trading within the funds. ATSF and the affiliated entities have voluntarily cooperated in the investigation and have been providing the information as requested.

NOTE  1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The AEGON/Transamerica Series Fund, Inc. (“ATSF”) is a Maryland corporation registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. ATSF serves as a funding vehicle for variable life insurance, variable annuity and group annuity products. MFS High Yield (“the Fund”), part of ATSF, began operations as part of the Endeavor Series Trust, on June 1, 1998. The Fund became part of ATSF on May 1, 2002.

 

In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties, which provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote.

 

See the Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information for a description of the Fund’s investment objective.

 

In preparing the Fund’s financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with GAAP.

 

Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers two classes of shares, an Initial Class and a Service Class. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses.

 

Pricing of shares: The Fund prices its shares on the basis of the net asset value of each class of shares of the Fund, which is determined as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) (generally 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time) on each day on which the NYSE is open for trading (other than a day on which there are insufficient changes in the value of the Fund’s portfolio securities to materially affect the Fund’s net asset value or a day on which no shares are tendered for redemption and no order to purchase any shares is received).

 

Security valuations: Fund investments traded on an exchange are valued at the closing price on the day of valuation on the exchange where the security is principally traded.

Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the last quoted bid price.

 

Debt securities are valued by independent pricing services; however, those that mature in sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market.

 

Investment company securities are valued at the net asset value of the underlying portfolio.

 

Foreign securities generally are valued based on quotations from the primary market in which they are traded and are translated from the local currency into U.S. dollars using closing exchange rates. Many foreign securities markets are open for trading at times when the U.S. markets are closed for trading, and many foreign securities markets close for trading before the close of the NYSE. The value of foreign securities may be affected significantly on a day that the NYSE is closed and an investor is unable to purchase or redeem shares. If a significant market event impacting the value of a portfolio security (e.g., natural disaster, company announcement, market volatility) occurs subsequent to the close of trading in the security, but prior to the calculation of the Fund’s net asset value per share, market quotations for that security may be determined to be unreliable and, accordingly, not “readily available.” If market quotations are not readily available, and the impact of such a significant market event materially affects the net asset value per share of the Fund, an affected portfolio security will be valued at fair market value as determined in good faith using guidelines adopted by the Board of Directors of the Fund, under the supervision of the Fund’s Valuation Committee. Factors that may be considered to value foreign securities at fair market value may include, among others: the value of other securities traded on other markets, foreign currency exchange activity and the trading of financial products tied to foreign securities.

 

Other securities for which quotations are not readily available also are valued at fair market value as determined in good faith using guidelines established by and under the supervision of the Board of Directors, and the Fund’s Valuation Committee. These guidelines may include: the type of security; any restrictions on its resale; financial or business news of the issuer; similar or related securities that are actively trading; related corporate actions; and other significant events occurring after the close of trading in the security.

 

Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investors Bank & Trust Company (“IBT”). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at June 30, 2004, was paying an interest rate of 0.75%.

 

Repurchase agreements: The Fund is authorized to enter into repurchase agreements. The Fund, through IBT, receives delivery of the underlying securities, the value of which at the time of purchase is required to be an amount equal to at least 100% of the resale price. Repurchase agreements involve the risk that the seller will fail to repurchase the security, as agreed. In that case, the Fund will bear the

NOTE  1–(continued)

 

risk of value fluctuations until the security can be sold and may encounter delays and incur costs in liquidating the security. In the event of bankruptcy or insolvency of the seller, delays and costs are incurred.

 

Securities lending: The Fund may lend securities to enhance fund earnings from investing cash collateral received in making such loans to

qualified borrowers (typically broker/dealers). The Fund has engaged its custodian bank, IBT, as a lending agent to administer its securities lending program. IBT earned $73 of program net income for its services. When the Fund makes a security loan, it receives cash collateral as protection against the risk that the borrower will default on the loan, and records an asset for the cash invested collateral and a liability for the return of the collateral.

 

Loans of securities are required to be secured by collateral at least equal to 102% of the value of the securities at inception of the loan, and not less then 100% thereafter. The Fund may invest cash collateral in short-term money market instruments including: U.S. Treasury Bills, U.S. agency obligations, commercial paper, money market mutual funds, repurchase agreements and other highly rated, liquid investments. During the life of securities loans, the collateral and securities loaned remain subject to fluctuation in value. IBT marks to market securities loaned and the collateral each business day. If additional collateral is due (at least $1), IBT collects additional cash collateral from the borrowers. Although securities loaned will be fully collateralized at all times, IBT may experience delays in, or may be prevented from, recovering the collateral on behalf of the Fund. The Fund may recall a loaned security position at any time from the borrower through IBT. In the event the borrower fails to timely return a recalled security, IBT may indemnify the Fund by purchasing replacement securities for the Fund at its own expense and claiming the collateral to fund such a purchase. IBT absorbs the loss if the collateral value is not sufficient to cover the cost of the replacement securities. If replacement securities are not available, IBT will credit the equivalent cash value to the Fund.

 

While a security is on loan, the Fund does not have the right to vote that security. However, if time permits, the Fund will attempt to recall a security on loan and vote the proxy.

 

Income from securities lending is included in the Statement of Operations. The amount of collateral and value of securities on loan are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as well as in the Schedule of Investments.

 

Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the first-in, first-out basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, in the case of foreign securities, as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, including accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis commencing on the settlement date.

 

Foreign currency denominated investments: The accounting records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the closing exchange rate each day. The cost of foreign securities is translated at the exchange rate in effect when the investment was acquired. The Fund combines fluctuations from currency exchange rates and fluctuations in value when computing net realized and unrealized gains or losses from investments.

 

Net foreign currency gains and losses resulting from changes in exchange rates include: 1) foreign currency fluctuations between trade date and settlement date of investment security transactions; 2) gains and losses on forward foreign currency contracts; and 3) the difference between the receivable amounts of interest and dividends recorded in the accounting records in U.S. dollars and the amounts actually received.

 

Foreign currency denominated assets may involve risks not typically associated with domestic transactions, including unanticipated movements in exchange currency rates, the degree of government supervision and regulation of security markets, and the possibility of political or economic instability.

 

Forward foreign currency contracts: The Fund may enter into forward foreign currency contracts to hedge against exchange rate risk arising from investments in securities denominated in foreign currencies. Contracts are valued at the contractual forward rate and are marked to market daily, with the change in value recorded as an unrealized gain or loss. When the contracts are closed a realized gain or loss is incurred. Risks may arise from changes in market value of the underlying currencies and from the possible inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts.

Investment advisory fees: The Fund pays management fees to ATFA based on average daily net assets (“ANA”) at the following rate:

 

0.775% of ANA

 

ATFA has contractually agreed to waive its advisory fee and will reimburse the Fund to the extent that operating expenses, excluding 12b-1 fees, exceed the following stated annual limit:

 

1.08% Expense Limit

 

If total fund expenses fall below the annual expense limitations agreed to by the adviser within the succeeding three years, the Fund may be required to pay the adviser a portion or all of the waived advisory fees.

 

There are no amounts subject to recapture at June 30, 2004.

 

Distribution and service fees: The Fund adopted a distribution plan (“Distribution Plan”) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Pursuant to the Distribution Plan, ATSF entered into a Distribution Agreement with AFSG effective May 1, 1999.

 

Under the Distribution Plan and Distribution Agreement on the Initial Class shares, AFSG, on behalf of the Fund, is authorized to pay various service providers, as direct payment for expenses incurred in connection with distribution of the Fund’s shares, amounts equal to actual expenses associated with distributing the shares.

 

The Distribution Plan on the Service Class shares requires ATSF to pay distribution fees to AFSG as compensation for its activities, not as reimbursement for specific expenses. The fee on the Service Class is paid to the insurance companies for providing services and account maintenance for their policyholders who invest in the variable insurance products which invest in the Service Class shares.

The Fund is authorized under the 12b-1 plan to pay fees on each class up to the following limits:

 

Initial Class

   0.15%

Service Class

   0.25%

 

AFSG has determined that it will not seek payment by the Fund of the distribution expenses incurred with respect to the Initial Class shares before April 30, 2005. Prior to AFSG seeking reimbursement of future

expenses, policy and contract owners will be notified in advance. The Fund will pay fees relating to Service Class shares.

 

Administrative services: The Fund has entered into an agreement with ATFS for financial and legal fund administration services, which includes such items as compliance, expenses, financial statements and other reporting, distributions, tax returns, prospectus preparation, board of directors meeting support, transfer agency and other legal matters. The Legal fees on the Statement of Operations are for fees paid to external legal counsel. The Fund paid ATFS $50 for Administration fees for the period ended June 30, 2004.

 

Deferred compensation plan: Each eligible Fund Director may elect participation in the Deferred Compensation Plan for Directors of ATSF (“the Plan”). Under the Plan, such Directors may defer payment of a percentage of their total fees earned as a Fund Director. These deferred amounts may be invested in any portfolio of Transamerica IDEX Mutual Funds, an affiliate of the Fund. At June 30, 2004, the value of invested plan amounts was $25. Invested plan amounts and the total liability for deferred compensation to the Directors under the Plan at June 30, 2004, are included in Net assets in the accompanying Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

     231,863

NOTE  4. FEDERAL INCOME TAX MATTERS

Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for items including, but not limited to, wash sales, foreign currency transactions, net operating losses and capital loss carryforwards.

 

The Fund has elected to treat the net capital and currency losses incurred in the two month period prior to December 31, 2003, of $467

NOTE  1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The AEGON/Transamerica Series Fund, Inc. (“ATSF”) is a Maryland corporation registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. ATSF serves as a funding vehicle for variable life insurance, variable annuity and group annuity products. Munder Net50 (“the Fund”), part of ATSF, began operations on May 3, 1999.

 

In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties, which provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote.

 

See the Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information for a description of the Fund’s investment objective.

 

In preparing the Fund’s financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with GAAP.

 

Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers two classes of shares, an Initial Class and a Service Class. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses.

 

Pricing of shares: The Fund prices its shares on the basis of the net asset value of each class of shares of the Fund, which is determined as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) (generally 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time) on each day on which the NYSE is open for trading (other than a day on which there are insufficient changes in the value of the Fund’s portfolio securities to materially affect the Fund’s net asset value or a day on which no shares are tendered for redemption and no order to purchase any shares is received).

 

Security valuations: Fund investments traded on an exchange are valued at the closing price on the day of valuation on the exchange where the security is principally traded.

 

Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the last quoted bid price.

Debt securities are valued by independent pricing services; however, those that mature in sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market.

 

Investment company securities are valued at the net asset value of the underlying portfolio.

 

Foreign securities generally are valued based on quotations from the primary market in which they are traded and are translated from the local currency into U.S. dollars using closing exchange rates. Many foreign securities markets are open for trading at times when the U.S. markets are closed for trading, and many foreign securities markets close for trading before the close of the NYSE. The value of foreign securities may be affected significantly on a day that the NYSE is closed and an investor is unable to purchase or redeem shares. If a significant market event impacting the value of a portfolio security (e.g., natural disaster, company announcement, market volatility) occurs subsequent to the close of trading in the security, but prior to the calculation of the Fund’s net asset value per share, market quotations for that security may be determined to be unreliable and, accordingly, not “readily available.” If market quotations are not readily available, and the impact of such a significant market event materially affects the net asset value per share of the Fund, an affected portfolio security will be valued at fair market value as determined in good faith using guidelines adopted by the Board of Directors of the Fund, under the supervision of the Fund’s Valuation Committee. Factors that may be considered to value foreign securities at fair market value may include, among others: the value of other securities traded on other markets, foreign currency exchange activity and the trading of financial products tied to foreign securities.

 

Other securities for which quotations are not readily available also are valued at fair market value as determined in good faith using guidelines established by and under the supervision of the Board of Directors, and the Fund’s Valuation Committee. These guidelines may include: the type of security; any restrictions on its resale; financial or business news of the issuer; similar or related securities that are actively trading; related corporate actions; and other significant events occurring after the close of trading in the security.

 

Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investors Bank & Trust Company (“IBT”). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at June 30, 2004, was paying an interest rate of 0.75%.

 

Repurchase agreements: The Fund is authorized to enter into repurchase agreements. The Fund, through IBT, receives delivery of the underlying securities, the value of which at the time of purchase is required to be an amount equal to at least 100% of the resale price. Repurchase agreements involve the risk that the seller will fail to repurchase the security, as agreed. In that case, the Fund will bear the risk of value fluctuations until the security can be sold and may encounter delays and incur costs in liquidating the security. In the event of bankruptcy or insolvency of the seller, delays and costs are incurred.

NOTE  1–(continued)

 

Securities lending: The Fund may lend securities to enhance fund earnings from investing cash collateral received in making such loans to qualified borrowers (typically broker/dealers). The Fund has engaged its custodian bank, IBT, as a lending agent to administer its securities lending program. IBT earned $8 of program net income for its services. When the Fund makes a security loan, it receives cash collateral as protection against the risk that the borrower will default on the loan, and records an asset for the cash invested collateral and a liability for the return of the collateral.

 

Loans of securities are required to be secured by collateral at least equal to 102% of the value of the securities at inception of the loan, and not less then 100% thereafter. The Fund may invest cash collateral in short-term money market instruments including: U.S. Treasury Bills, U.S. agency obligations, commercial paper, money market mutual funds, repurchase agreements and other highly rated, liquid investments. During the life of securities loans, the collateral and securities loaned remain subject to fluctuation in value. IBT marks to market securities loaned and the collateral each business day. If additional collateral is due (at least $1), IBT collects additional cash collateral from the borrowers. Although securities loaned will be fully collateralized at all times, IBT may experience delays in, or may be prevented from, recovering the collateral on behalf of the Fund. The Fund may recall a loaned security position at any time from the borrower through IBT. In the event the borrower fails to timely return a recalled security, IBT may indemnify the Fund by purchasing replacement securities for the Fund at its own expense and claiming the collateral to fund such a purchase. IBT absorbs the loss if the collateral value is not sufficient to cover the cost of the replacement securities. If replacement securities are not available, IBT will credit the equivalent cash value to the Fund.

 

While a security is on loan, the Fund does not have the right to vote that security. However, if time permits, the Fund will attempt to recall a security on loan and vote the proxy.

 

Income from securities lending is included in the Statement of Operations. The amount of collateral and value of securities on loan are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as well as in the Schedule of Investments.

 

Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the first-in, first-out basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, in the case of foreign securities, as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, including accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis commencing on the settlement date.

Foreign currency denominated investments: The accounting records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the closing exchange rate each day. The cost of foreign securities is translated at the exchange rate in effect when the investment was acquired. The Fund combines fluctuations from currency exchange rates and fluctuations in value when computing net realized and unrealized gains or losses from investments.

 

Net foreign currency gains and losses resulting from changes in exchange rates include: 1) foreign currency fluctuations between trade date and settlement date of investment security transactions; 2) gains and losses on forward foreign currency contracts; and 3) the difference between the receivable amounts of interest and dividends recorded in the accounting records in U.S. dollars and the amounts actually received.

 

Foreign currency denominated assets may involve risks not typically associated with domestic transactions, including unanticipated movements in exchange currency rates, the degree of government supervision and regulation of security markets, and the possibility of political or economic instability.

 

Forward foreign currency contracts: The Fund may enter into forward foreign currency contracts to hedge against exchange rate risk arising from investments in securities denominated in foreign currencies. Contracts are valued at the contractual forward rate and are marked to market daily, with the change in value recorded as an unrealized gain or loss. When the contracts are closed a realized gain or loss is incurred. Risks may arise from changes in market value of the underlying currencies and from the possible inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts.

 

Dividend distributions: Dividend and capital gains distributions are typically declared and reinvested annually and are generally paid and reinvested on the business day following the ex-date.

Distribution and service fees: The Fund adopted a distribution plan (“Distribution Plan”) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Pursuant to the Distribution Plan, ATSF entered into a Distribution Agreement with AFSG effective May 1, 1999.

 

Under the Distribution Plan and Distribution Agreement on the Initial Class shares, AFSG, on behalf of the Fund, is authorized to pay various service providers, as direct payment for expenses incurred in connection with distribution of the Fund’s shares, amounts equal to actual expenses associated with distributing the shares.

The Distribution Plan on the Service Class shares requires ATSF to pay distribution fees to AFSG as compensation for its activities, not as reimbursement for specific expenses. The fee on the Service Class is paid to the insurance companies for providing services and account maintenance for their policyholders who invest in the variable insurance products which invest in the Service Class shares.

 

The Fund is authorized under the 12b-1 plan to pay fees on each class up to the following limits:

 

Initial Class

   0.15%

Service Class

   0.25%

 

AFSG has determined that it will not seek payment by the Fund of the distribution expenses incurred with respect to the Initial Class shares before April 30, 2005. Prior to AFSG seeking reimbursement of future expenses, policy and contract owners will be notified in advance. The Fund will pay fees relating to Service Class shares.

 

Administrative services: The Fund has entered into an agreement with ATFS for financial and legal fund administration services, which includes such items as compliance, expenses, financial statements and other reporting, distributions, tax returns, prospectus preparation, board of directors meeting support, transfer agency and other legal matters. The Legal fees on the Statement of Operations are for fees paid to external legal counsel. The Fund paid ATFS $7 for Administration fees for the period ended June 30, 2004.

 

Deferred compensation plan: Each eligible Fund Director may elect participation in the Deferred Compensation Plan for Directors of ATSF (“the Plan”). Under the Plan, such Directors may defer payment of a percentage of their total fees earned as a Fund Director. These deferred amounts may be invested in any portfolio of Transamerica IDEX Mutual Funds, an affiliate of the Fund. At June 30, 2004, the value of invested plan amounts was $4. Invested plan amounts and the total liability for deferred compensation to the Directors under the Plan at June 30, 2004, are included in Net assets in the accompanying Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

 

NOTE  3. INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS

 

The cost of securities purchased and proceeds from securities sold (excluding short-term securities) for the period ended June 30, 2004, were as follows:

 

Purchases of securities:

U.S. Government

    

Proceeds from maturities and sales of securities:

      

Long-Term excluding U.S. Government

     11,126

NOTE  4. FEDERAL INCOME TAX MATTERS

 

The Fund has not made any provision for federal income taxes due to its policy to distribute all of its taxable income and capital gains to its shareholders and otherwise qualify as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are primarily due to

NOTE  1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The AEGON/Transamerica Series Fund, Inc. (“ATSF”) is a Maryland corporation registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. ATSF serves as a funding vehicle for variable life insurance, variable annuity and group annuity products. PIMCO Total Return (“the Fund”), part of ATSF, began operations on May 1, 2002.

 

In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties, which provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote.

 

See the Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information for a description of the Fund’s investment objective.

 

In preparing the Fund’s financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with GAAP.

 

Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers two classes of shares, an Initial Class and a Service Class. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses.

 

Pricing of shares: The Fund prices its shares on the basis of the net asset value of each class of shares of the Fund, which is determined as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) (generally 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time) on each day on which the NYSE is open for trading (other than a day on which there are insufficient changes in the value of the Fund’s portfolio securities to materially affect the Fund’s net asset value or a day on which no shares are tendered for redemption and no order to purchase any shares is received).

 

Security valuations: Fund investments traded on an exchange are valued at the closing price on the day of valuation on the exchange where the security is principally traded.

 

Debt securities are valued by independent pricing services; however, those that mature in sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market.

Investment company securities are valued at the net asset value of the underlying portfolio.

 

Foreign securities generally are valued based on quotations from the primary market in which they are traded and are translated from the local currency into U.S. dollars using closing exchange rates. Many foreign securities markets are open for trading at times when the U.S. markets are closed for trading, and many foreign securities markets close for trading before the close of the NYSE. The value of foreign securities may be affected significantly on a day that the NYSE is closed and an investor is unable to purchase or redeem shares. If a significant market event impacting the value of a portfolio security (e.g., natural disaster, company announcement, market volatility) occurs subsequent to the close of trading in the security, but prior to the calculation of the Fund’s net asset value per share, market quotations for that security may be determined to be unreliable and, accordingly, not “readily available.” If market quotations are not readily available, and the impact of such a significant market event materially affects the net asset value per share of the Fund, an affected portfolio security will be valued at fair market value as determined in good faith using guidelines adopted by the Board of Directors of the Fund, under the supervision of the Fund’s Valuation Committee. Factors that may be considered to value foreign securities at fair market value may include, among others: the value of other securities traded on other markets, foreign currency exchange activity and the trading of financial products tied to foreign securities.

 

Other securities for which quotations are not readily available also are valued at fair market value as determined in good faith using guidelines established by and under the supervision of the Board of Directors, and the Fund’s Valuation Committee. These guidelines may include: the type of security; any restrictions on its resale; financial or business news of the issuer; similar or related securities that are actively trading; related corporate actions; and other significant events occurring after the close of trading in the security.

 

Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investors Bank & Trust Company (“IBT”). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at June 30, 2004, was paying an interest rate of 0.75%.

 

Repurchase agreements: The Fund is authorized to enter into repurchase agreements. The Fund, through IBT, receives delivery of the underlying securities, the value of which at the time of purchase is required to be an amount equal to at least 100% of the resale price. Repurchase agreements involve the risk that the seller will fail to repurchase the security, as agreed. In that case, the Fund will bear the risk of value fluctuations until the security can be sold and may encounter delays and incur costs in liquidating the security. In the event of bankruptcy or insolvency of the seller, delays and costs are incurred.

 

Securities lending: The Fund may lend securities to enhance fund earnings from investing cash collateral received in making such loans to qualified borrowers (typically broker/dealers). The Fund has engaged its custodian bank, IBT, as a lending agent to administer its securities

NOTE  1–(continued)

 

lending program. IBT earned $1 of program net income for its services. When the Fund makes a security loan, it receives cash collateral as protection against the risk that the borrower will default on the loan, and records an asset for the cash invested collateral and a liability for the return of the collateral.

 

Loans of securities are required to be secured by collateral at least equal to 102% of the value of the securities at inception of the loan, and not less then 100% thereafter. The Fund may invest cash collateral in short-term money market instruments including: U.S. Treasury Bills, U.S. agency obligations, commercial paper, money market mutual funds, repurchase agreements and other highly rated, liquid investments. During the life of securities loans, the collateral and securities loaned remain subject to fluctuation in value. IBT marks to market securities loaned and the collateral each business day. If additional collateral is due (at least $1), IBT collects additional cash collateral from the borrowers. Although securities loaned will be fully collateralized at all times, IBT may experience delays in, or may be prevented from, recovering the collateral on behalf of the Fund. The Fund may recall a loaned security position at any time from the borrower through IBT. In the event the borrower fails to timely return a recalled security, IBT may indemnify the Fund by purchasing replacement securities for the Fund at its own expense and claiming the collateral to fund such a purchase. IBT absorbs the loss if the collateral value is not sufficient to cover the cost of the rejplacement securities. If replacement securities are not available, IBT will credit the equivalent cash value to the Fund.

 

While a security is on loan, the Fund does not have the right to vote that security. However, if time permits, the Fund will attempt to recall a security on loan and vote the proxy.

 

Income from securities lending is included in the Statement of Operations. The amount of collateral and value of securities on loan are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as well as in the Schedule of Investments.

 

TBA purchase commitments: The Fund may enter into “TBA” (to be announced) purchase commitments to purchase securities for a fixed price at a future date, typically not to exceed 45 days. TBA purchase commitments are considered securities in themselves, and involve a risk of loss if the value of the security to be purchased declines prior to settlement date, in addition to the risk of decline in the value of the Fund’s other assets. Unsettled TBA purchase commitments are valued at the current value of the underlying securities, according to the procedures described under Security Valuations. TBA purchase commitments are included in the Schedule of Investments.

 

Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the first-in, first-out basis. Interest income, including accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis commencing on the settlement date.

 

Foreign currency denominated investments: The accounting records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the closing exchange rate each day. The cost of foreign securities is translated at the exchange rate in effect when the investment was acquired. The Fund combines fluctuations from currency exchange rates and fluctuations in value when computing net realized and unrealized gains or losses from investments.

 

Net foreign currency gains and losses resulting from changes in exchange rates include: 1) foreign currency fluctuations between trade date and settlement date of investment security transactions; 2) gains and losses on forward foreign currency contracts; and 3) the difference between the receivable amounts of interest and dividends recorded in the accounting records in U.S. dollars and the amounts actually received.

 

Foreign currency denominated assets may involve risks not typically associated with domestic transactions, including unanticipated movements in exchange currency rates, the degree of government supervision and regulation of security markets, and the possibility of political or economic instability.

 

Forward foreign currency contracts: The Fund may enter into forward foreign currency contracts to hedge against exchange rate risk arising from investments in securities denominated in foreign currencies. Contracts are valued at the contractual forward rate and are marked to market daily, with the change in value recorded as an unrealized gain or loss. When the contracts are closed a realized gain or loss is incurred. Risks may arise from changes in market value of the underlying currencies and from the possible inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts. Open forward currency contracts at June 30, 2004, are listed in the Schedule of Investments.

 

Swap Agreements: The Fund may invest in swap agreements. A swap is an agreement to exchange the return generated by one instrument for the return generated by another instrument. The Fund may enter into interest rate and credit default swap agreements to manage its exposure to interest rates and credit risk. Interest rate swap agreements involve commitments to pay interest in exchange for a market-linked return, both based on notional amounts. To the extent the total return of the security or index underlying the transaction exceeds or falls short of the offsetting interest rate obligation, the Fund will receive a payment from or make a payment to the counterparty. In a credit default swap, one party makes a stream of payments to another party in exchange for the right to receive a specified return in the event of a default by a third party, typically corporate issues or sovereign issues of an emerging country, on its obligation. The Fund may use credit default swaps to provide a measure of protection against defaults of sovereign issuers (i.e., to reduce risk where the Fund owns or has exposure to the sovereign issuer) or to take an active long or short position with respect to the likelihood of a particular issuer’s default.

NOTE  1–(continued)

 

Swaps are marked to market daily based upon quotations from market makers and vendors and the change in value, if any, is recorded as unrealized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Payments received or made at the beginning of the measurement period are

reflected as such on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. A liquidation payment received or made at the termination of the swap is recorded as realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Net periodic payments are included as part of interest income on the Statement of Operations.

 

Entering into these agreements involves, to varying degrees, elements of credit, market and documentation risk in excess of the amounts recognized on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Such risks involve the possibility that there will be no liquid market for these agreements, that the counterparty to the agreements may default on its obligation to perform or disagree as to the meaning of contractual terms in the agreements, and that there may be unfavorable changes in interest rates. Open Swap Agreements at June 30, 2004, are listed in the Schedule of Investments.

 

Futures, options and swaptions contracts: The Fund may enter into futures and/or options contracts to manage exposure to market, interest rate or currency fluctuations. Futures contracts are valued at the settlement price established each day by the board of trade or exchange on which they are traded. Option contracts are valued at the average of the bid and ask (“Mean Quote”) established each day at the close of the board of trade or exchange on which they are traded. The primary risks associated with futures contracts and options are imperfect correlation between the change in value of the securities held and the prices of futures contracts and options; the possibility of an illiquid market and inability of the counterparty to meet the contract terms. When the Fund writes a covered call or put option, an amount equal to the premium received by the Fund is included in the Fund’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an asset and as an equivalent liability. The amount of the liability is subsequently marked-to-market to reflect the current value of the option written.

 

The Fund is authorized to write swaption contracts to manage exposure to fluctuations in interest rates and to enhance portfolio yield. Swaption contracts written by the Fund represents an option that gives the purchaser the right, but not the obligation, to enter into a previously agreed upon swap contract on a future date. If a written call option is exercised, the writer will enter a swap and is obligated to pay the fixed rate and receive a fixed rate in exchange. Swaptions are marked-to-market daily based upon quotations from market makers.

 

When the Fund writes a swaption, the premium received is recorded as a liability and is subsequently adjusted to the current value of the swaption. Changes in the value of the swaption are reported as Unrealized gains or losses in written options in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Gain or loss is recognized when the swaption contract expires or is closed. Premiums received from writing swaptions that expire or are exercised are treated by the Fund as realized gains from written options. The difference between the premium and the amount paid on effecting a closing purchase transaction is also treated as a realized gain, or if the premium is less than the amount paid for the closing purchase, as a realized loss.

 

Entering into a swaption contract involves, to varying degrees, the elements of credit, market and interest rate risk in excess of the amounts reported in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities, associated with both option contracts and swap contracts. To reduce credit risk from potential counterparty default, the Fund enters into swaption contracts with counterparties whose creditworthiness has been approved by the Board of Directors. The portfolio bears the market risk arising from any changes in index values or interest rates.

 

The underlying face amounts of open futures, option, and swaption contracts at June 30, 2004, are listed in the Schedule of Investments. The variation margin receivable is included in the accompanying Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The variation margin receivable or payable, as applicable, is included in the accompanying Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Variation margin represents the additional payments due or excess deposits made in order to maintain the equity account at the required margin level.

0.70% of ANA

 

ATFA has contractually agreed to waive its advisory fee and will reimburse the Fund to the extent that operating expenses, excluding 12b-1 fees, exceed the following stated annual limit:

 

1.20% Expense Limit

 

If total fund expenses fall below the annual expense limitations agreed to by the adviser within the succeeding three years, the Fund may be required to pay the adviser a portion or all of the waived advisory fees.

 

There are no amounts subject to recapture at June 30, 2004.

 

Distribution and service fees: The Fund adopted a distribution plan (“Distribution Plan”) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Pursuant to the Distribution Plan, ATSF entered into a Distribution Agreement with AFSG effective May 1, 1999.

 

Under the Distribution Plan and Distribution Agreement on the Initial Class shares, AFSG, on behalf of the Fund, is authorized to pay various service providers, as direct payment for expenses incurred in connection with distribution of the Fund’s shares, amounts equal to actual expenses associated with distributing the shares.

 

The Distribution Plan on the Service Class shares requires ATSF to pay distribution fees to AFSG as compensation for its activities, not as reimbursement for specific expenses. The fee on the Service Class is paid to the insurance companies for providing services and account maintenance for their policyholders who invest in the variable insurance products which invest in the Service Class shares.

 

The Fund is authorized under the 12b-1 plan to pay fees on each class up to the following limits:

 

Initial Class

   0.15%

Service Class

   0.25%

 

AFSG has determined that it will not seek payment by the Fund of the distribution expenses incurred with respect to the Initial Class shares before April 30, 2005. Prior to AFSG seeking reimbursement of future expenses, policy and contract owners will be notified in advance. The Fund will pay fees relating to Service Class shares.

 

Administrative services: The Fund has entered into an agreement with ATFS for financial and legal fund administration services, which includes such items as compliance, expenses, financial statements and other reporting, distributions, tax returns, prospectus preparation, board of directors meeting support, transfer agency and other legal matters. The Legal fees on the Statement of Operations are for fees paid to external legal counsel. The Fund paid ATFS $48 for Administration fees for the period ended June 30, 2004.

 

Deferred compensation plan: Each eligible Fund Director may elect participation in the Deferred Compensation Plan for Directors of ATSF (“the Plan”). Under the Plan, such Directors may defer payment of a percentage of their total fees earned as a Fund Director. These deferred amounts may be invested in any portfolio of Transamerica IDEX Mutual Funds, an affiliate of the Fund. At June 30, 2004, the value of invested plan amounts was $26. Invested plan amounts and the total liability for deferred compensation to the Directors under the Plan at June 30, 2004, are included in Net assets in the accompanying Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

NOTE  1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The AEGON/Transamerica Series Fund, Inc. (“ATSF”) is a Maryland corporation registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. ATSF serves as a funding vehicle for variable life insurance, variable annuity and group annuity products. Salomon All Cap (“the Fund”), part of ATSF, began operations on May 3, 1999. The Fund is “non-diversified” under the 1940 Act.

 

In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties, which provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote.

 

See the Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information for a description of the Fund’s investment objective.

 

In preparing the Fund’s financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with GAAP.

 

Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers two classes of shares, an Initial Class and a Service Class. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses.

 

Pricing of shares: The Fund prices its shares on the basis of the net asset value of each class of shares of the Fund, which is determined as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) (generally 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time) on each day on which the NYSE is open for trading (other than a day on which there are insufficient changes in the value of the Fund’s portfolio securities to materially affect the Fund’s net asset value or a day on which no shares are tendered for redemption and no order to purchase any shares is received).

 

Security valuations: Fund investments traded on an exchange are valued at the closing price on the day of valuation on the exchange where the security is principally traded.

 

Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the last quoted bid price.

Debt securities are valued by independent pricing services; however, those that mature in sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market.

 

Investment company securities are valued at the net asset value of the underlying portfolio.

 

Other securities for which quotations are not readily available also are valued at fair market value as determined in good faith using guidelines established by and under the supervision of the Board of Directors, and the Fund’s Valuation Committee. These guidelines may include: the type of security; any restrictions on its resale; financial or business news of the issuer; similar or related securities that are actively trading; related corporate actions; and other significant events occurring after the close of trading in the security.

 

Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investors Bank & Trust Company (“IBT”). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at June 30, 2004, was paying an interest rate of 0.75%.

 

Repurchase agreements: The Fund is authorized to enter into repurchase agreements. The Fund, through IBT, receives delivery of the underlying securities, the value of which at the time of purchase is required to be an amount equal to at least 100% of the resale price. Repurchase agreements involve the risk that the seller will fail to repurchase the security, as agreed. In that case, the Fund will bear the risk of value fluctuations until the security can be sold and may encounter delays and incur costs in liquidating the security. In the event of bankruptcy or insolvency of the seller, delays and costs are incurred.

 

Directed brokerage: The sub-adviser, to the extent consistent with the best execution and usual commission rate policies and practices, may place security transactions of the Fund with broker/dealers with which ATSF has established a Directed Brokerage Program. A Directed Brokerage Program is any arrangement under which a broker/dealer applies a portion of the commissions received by such broker/dealer on the security transactions to the Fund. In no event will commissions paid by the Fund be used to pay expenses that would otherwise be borne by any other funds within ATSF, or by any other party. Directed commissions for the period ended June 30, 2004, of $140 are included in net realized gains in the Statement of Operations.

 

Securities lending: The Fund may lend securities to enhance fund earnings from investing cash collateral received in making such loans to qualified borrowers (typically broker/dealers). The Fund has engaged its custodian bank, IBT, as a lending agent to administer its securities lending program. IBT earned $35 of program net income for its services. When the Fund makes a security loan, it receives cash collateral as protection against the risk that the borrower will default on the loan, and records an asset for the cash invested collateral and a liability for the return of the collateral.

 

Loans of securities are required to be secured by collateral at least equal to 102% of the value of the securities at inception of the loan, and not less then 100% thereafter. The Fund may invest cash collateral in short-

term money market instruments including: U.S. Treasury Bills, U.S. agency obligations, commercial paper, money market mutual funds, repurchase agreements and other highly rated, liquid investments. During the life of securities loans, the collateral and securities loaned remain subject to fluctuation in value. IBT marks to market securities loaned and the collateral each business day. If additional collateral is due (at least $1), IBT collects additional cash collateral from the borrowers. Although securities loaned will be fully collateralized at all times, IBT may experience delays in, or may be prevented from, recovering the collateral on behalf of the Fund. The Fund may recall a loaned security position at any time from the borrower through IBT. In the event the borrower fails to timely return a recalled security, IBT may indemnify the Fund by purchasing replacement securities for the Fund at its own expense and claiming the collateral to fund such a purchase. IBT absorbs the loss if the collateral value is not sufficient to cover the cost of the replacement securities. If replacement securities are not available, IBT will credit the equivalent cash value to the Fund.

 

While a security is on loan, the Fund does not have the right to vote that security. However, if time permits, the Fund will attempt to recall a security on loan and vote the proxy.

 

Income from securities lending is included in the Statement of Operations. The amount of collateral and value of securities on loan are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as well as in the Schedule of Investments.

 

Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the first-in, first-out basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, in the case of foreign securities, as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, including accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis commencing on the settlement date.

 

Foreign currency denominated investments: The accounting records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the closing exchange rate each day. The cost of foreign securities is translated at the exchange rate in effect when the investment was acquired. The Fund combines fluctuations from currency exchange rates and fluctuations in value when computing net realized and unrealized gains or losses from investments.

 

Net foreign currency gains and losses resulting from changes in exchange rates include: 1) foreign currency fluctuations between trade date and settlement date of investment security transactions; 2) gains and losses on forward foreign currency contracts; and 3) the difference between the receivable amounts of interest and dividends recorded in the accounting records in U.S. dollars and the amounts actually received.

Foreign currency denominated assets may involve risks not typically associated with domestic transactions, including unanticipated movements in exchange currency rates, the degree of government supervision and regulation of security markets, and the possibility of political or economic instability.

 

Dividend distributions: Dividend and capital gains distributions are typically declared and reinvested annually and are generally paid and reinvested on the business day following the ex-date.

NOTE  2–(continued)

 

Distribution and service fees: The Fund adopted a distribution plan (“Distribution Plan”) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Pursuant to the Distribution Plan, ATSF entered into a Distribution Agreement with AFSG effective May 1, 1999.

 

Under the Distribution Plan and Distribution Agreement on the Initial Class shares, AFSG, on behalf of the Fund, is authorized to pay various service providers, as direct payment for expenses incurred in connection with distribution of the Fund’s shares, amounts equal to actual expenses associated with distributing the shares.

 

The Distribution Plan on the Service Class shares requires ATSF to pay distribution fees to AFSG as compensation for its activities, not as reimbursement for specific expenses. The fee on the Service Class is paid to the insurance companies for providing services and account maintenance for their policyholders who invest in the variable insurance products which invest in the Service Class shares.

 

The Fund is authorized under the 12b-1 plan to pay fees on each class up to the following limits:

 

Initial Class

   0.15%

Service Class

   0.25%

 

AFSG has determined that it will not seek payment by the Fund of the distribution expenses incurred with respect to the Initial Class shares before April 30, 2005. Prior to AFSG seeking reimbursement of future expenses, policy and contract owners will be notified in advance. The Fund will pay fees relating to Service Class shares.

 

Administrative services: The Fund has entered into an agreement with ATFS for financial and legal fund administration services, which includes such items as compliance, expenses, financial statements and other reporting, distributions, tax returns, prospectus preparation, board of directors meeting support, transfer agency and other legal matters. The Legal fees on the Statement of Operations are for fees paid to external legal counsel. The Fund paid ATFS $48 for Administration fees for the period ended June 30, 2004.

 

Brokerage commissions: Brokerage commissions incurred on security transactions placed with an affiliate of the sub-adviser for the period ended June 30, 2004, were $10.

 

Deferred compensation plan: Each eligible Fund Director may elect participation in the Deferred Compensation Plan for Directors of ATSF (“the Plan”). Under the Plan, such Directors may defer payment of a percentage of their total fees earned as a Fund Director. These deferred amounts may be invested in any portfolio of Transamerica IDEX Mutual Funds, an affiliate of the Fund. At June 30, 2004, the value of invested plan amounts was $25. Invested plan amounts and the total liability for deferred compensation to the Directors under the Plan at June 30, 2004, are included in Net assets in the accompanying Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

 

NOTE  3. INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS

 

The cost of securities purchased and proceeds from securities sold (excluding short-term securities) for the period ended June 30, 2004, were as follows:

 

Purchases of securities:

      

Long-Term excluding U.S. Government

   $   173,153

U.S. Government

    

Proceeds from maturities and sales of securities:

      

Long-Term excluding U.S. Government

     105,294

U.S. Government

    

 

NOTE  4. FEDERAL INCOME TAX MATTERS

 

The Fund has not made any provision for federal income taxes due to its policy to distribute all of its taxable income and capital gains to its shareholders and otherwise qualify as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for items including, but not limited to, wash sales, foreign currency transactions, and capital loss carryforwards.

 

The capital loss carryforwards are available to offset future realized capital gains through the periods listed:

 

Capital Loss
Carryforward


  

Available through


$36,471    December 31, 2010
7,784    December 31, 2011

 

The aggregate cost of investments and composition of unrealized appreciation (depreciation) for federal income tax purposes as of June 30, 2004, are as follows:

 

Federal Tax Cost Basis

   $   628,867

NOTE  5. OTHER MATTERS

 

ATSF, and certain of its affiliated entities, have received requests for information from the Staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission in connection with market timing and late trading within the funds. ATSF and the affiliated entities have voluntarily cooperated in the investigation and have been providing the information as requested.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

At June 30, 2004

(unaudited)

 

NOTE  1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The AEGON/Transamerica Series Fund, Inc. (“ATSF”) is a Maryland corporation registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. ATSF serves as a funding vehicle for variable life insurance, variable annuity and group annuity products. Select + Aggressive (“the Fund”), part of ATSF, began operations on December 5, 2002.

 

In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties, which provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote.

 

See the Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information for a description of the Fund’s investment objective.

 

In preparing the Fund’s financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with GAAP.

 

Pricing of shares: The Fund prices its shares on the basis of the net asset value of the Fund, which is determined as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) (generally 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time) on each day on which the NYSE is open for trading (other than a day on which there are insufficient changes in the value of the Fund’s portfolio securities to materially affect the Fund’s net asset value or a day on which no shares are tendered for redemption and no order to purchase any shares is received).

 

Security valuations: The Fund’s investments are valued at the net asset values of the underlying portfolios of ATSF. The net asset values of the underlying portfolios are determined at the close of the NYSE (generally 4:00 p.m. eastern time) on the valuation date.

 

Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the first-in, first-out basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Dividends and net realized gain (loss) from investment securities for the Fund are from investments in shares of affiliated investment companies.

 

Dividend distributions: Dividend and capital gains distributions are typically declared and reinvested annually and are generally paid and reinvested on the business day following the ex-date.

NOTE  2. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

 

AEGON/Transamerica Fund Advisers, Inc. (“ATFA”) is the Fund’s investment adviser. AEGON/Transamerica Fund Services, Inc. (“ATFS”) is the Fund’s administrator and transfer agent. AFSG Securities Corp. (“AFSG”) is the Fund’s distributor. AFSG is 100% owned by AUSA Holding Company (“AUSA”). ATFA is a directly owned subsidiary of Western Reserve Life Assurance Co. of Ohio (78%) (“WRL”) and AUSA (22%). ATFS is a wholly owned subsidiary of WRL. AUSA and WRL are wholly owned indirect subsidiaries of AEGON NV, a Netherlands corporation.

 

Certain officers and directors of the Fund are also officers and/or directors of ATFA, ATFS, AFSG and WRL. No affiliated officer or director receives any compensation directly from the Fund.

 

Transamerica Investment Management, LLC is an affiliate of the Fund and sub-adviser to other funds within ATSF.

 

Investment advisory fees: The Fund pays management fees to ATFA based on average daily net assets (“ANA”) at the following rate:

 

0.10% of ANA

 

ATFA has contractually agreed to waive its advisory fee and will reimburse the Fund to the extent that operating expenses, excluding 12b-1 fees, exceed the following stated annual limit:

 

0.55% Expense Limit

 

If total fund expenses fall below the annual expense limitations agreed to by the adviser within the succeeding three years, the Fund may be required to pay the adviser a portion or all of the waived advisory fees.

Recapture Through


Fiscal Year 2003

   $ 53    12/31/2006

 

Distribution and service fees: The Fund adopted a distribution plan (“Distribution Plan”) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Pursuant to the Distribution Plan, ATSF entered into a Distribution Agreement with AFSG effective May 1, 1999.

 

Under the Distribution Plan and Distribution Agreement, AFSG, on behalf of the Fund, is authorized to pay various service providers, as direct payment for expenses incurred in connection with distribution of the Fund’s shares, amounts equal to actual expenses associated with distributing the shares.

 

The Fund is authorized under the 12b-1 plan to pay fees up to the following limit of 0.15%.

 

AFSG has determined that it will not seek payment by the Fund of the distribution expenses incurred before April 30, 2005. Prior to AFSG seeking reimbursement of future expenses, policy and contract owners will be notified in advance.

(all amounts in thousands)

(unaudited)

 

NOTE  2–(continued)

 

Administrative services: The Fund has entered into an agreement with ATFS for financial and legal fund administration services, which includes such items as compliance, expenses, financial statements and other reporting, distributions, tax returns, prospectus preparation, board of directors meeting support, transfer agency and other legal matters. The Legal fees on the Statement of Operations are for fees paid to external legal counsel. The Fund paid ATFS less than $1 for Administration fees for the period ended June 30, 2004.

 

Deferred compensation plan: Each eligible Fund Director may elect participation in the Deferred Compensation Plan for Directors of ATSF (“the Plan”). Under the Plan, such Directors may defer payment of a percentage of their total fees earned as a Fund Director. These deferred amounts may be invested in any portfolio of Transamerica IDEX Mutual Funds, an affiliate of the Fund. At June 30, 2004, the value of invested plan amounts was less than $1. Invested plan amounts and the total liability for deferred compensation to the Directors under the Plan at June 30, 2004, are included in Net assets in the accompanying Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

NOTE  3. INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS

 

The cost of securities purchased and proceeds from securities sold (excluding short-term securities) for the period ended June 30, 2004, were as follows:

 

Purchases of securities:

     60

NOTE  4. FEDERAL INCOME TAX MATTERS

 

The Fund has not made any provision for federal income taxes due to its policy to distribute all of its taxable income and capital gains to its shareholders and otherwise qualify as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for items including, but not limited to, wash sales, net operating losses and capital loss carryforwards.

 

The aggregate cost of investments and composition of unrealized appreciation (depreciation) for federal income tax purposes as of June 30, 2004, are as follows:

NOTE  5. OTHER MATTERS

ATSF and the affiliated entities have voluntarily cooperated in the investigation and have been providing the information as requested.

The AEGON/Transamerica Series Fund, Inc. (“ATSF”) is a Maryland corporation registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. ATSF serves as a funding vehicle for variable life insurance, variable annuity and group annuity products. Select + Conservative (“the Fund”), part of ATSF, began operations on December 5, 2002.

 

In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties, which provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote.

 

See the Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information for a description of the Fund’s investment objective.

 

In preparing the Fund’s financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with GAAP.

 

Pricing of shares: The Fund prices its shares on the basis of the net asset value of the Fund, which is determined as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) (generally 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time) on each day on which the NYSE is open for trading (other than a day on which there are insufficient changes in the value of the Fund’s portfolio securities to materially affect the Fund’s net asset value or a day on which no shares are tendered for redemption and no order to purchase any shares is received).

 

Security valuations: The Fund’s investments are valued at the net asset values of the underlying portfolios of ATSF. The net asset values of the underlying portfolios are determined at the close of the NYSE (generally 4:00 p.m. eastern time) on the valuation date.

 

Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the first-in, first-out basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Dividends and net realized gain (loss) from investment securities for the Fund are from investments in shares of affiliated investment companies.

 

Dividend distributions: Dividend and capital gains distributions are typically declared and reinvested annually and are generally paid and reinvested on the business day following the ex-date.

NOTE  1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The AEGON/Transamerica Series Fund, Inc. (“ATSF”) is a Maryland corporation registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. ATSF serves as a funding vehicle for variable life insurance, variable annuity and group annuity products. Templeton Great Companies Global (“the Fund”), part of ATSF, began operations on December 3, 1992.

 

On May 3, 2004, Janus Global acquired all the net assets of Templeton Great Companies Global pursuant to a plan of reorganization approved by shareholders of Templeton Great Companies Global. The acquisition was accomplished by a tax-free exchange of 3,786 shares of the Fund for the 8,704 shares of Templeton Great Companies Global outstanding on April 30, 2004. Templeton Great Companies Global’s net assets at that date $61,133, including $4,301 of unrealized appreciation, were combined with those of the Fund, resulting in combined net assets of $656,861.

 

On May 3, 2004, the Fund changed its name from Janus Global to Templeton Great Companies Global and changed its sub-adviser from Janus Capital Management LLC to Great Companies, LLC and Templeton Investment Counsel, LLC.

 

In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties, which provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote.

 

See the Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information for a description of the Fund’s investment objective.

 

In preparing the Fund’s financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with GAAP.

 

Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers two classes of shares, an Initial Class and a Service Class. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses.

Pricing of shares: The Fund prices its shares on the basis of the net asset value of each class of shares of the Fund, which is determined as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) (generally 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time) on each day on which the NYSE is open for trading (other than a day on which there are insufficient changes in the value of the Fund’s portfolio securities to materially affect the Fund’s net asset value or a day on which no shares are tendered for redemption and no order to purchase any shares is received).

 

Security valuations: Fund investments traded on an exchange are valued at the closing price on the day of valuation on the exchange where the security is principally traded.

 

Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the last quoted bid price.

 

Debt securities are valued by independent pricing services; however, those that mature in sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market.

 

Investment company securities are valued at the net asset value of the underlying portfolio.

 

Foreign securities generally are valued based on quotations from the primary market in which they are traded and are translated from the local currency into U.S. dollars using closing exchange rates. Many foreign securities markets are open for trading at times when the U.S. markets are closed for trading and many foreign securities markets close for trading before the close of the NYSE. The value of foreign securities may be affected significantly on a day that the NYSE is closed and an investor is unable to purchase or redeem shares. If a significant market event impacting the value of a portfolio security (e.g., natural disaster, company announcement, market volatility) occurs subsequent to the close of trading in the security, but prior to the calculation of the Fund’s net asset value per share, market quotations for that security may be determined to be unreliable and, accordingly, not “readily available.” If market quotations are not readily available, and the impact of such a significant market event materially affects the net asset value per share of the Fund, an affected portfolio security will be valued at fair market value as determined in good faith using guidelines adopted by the Board of Directors of the Fund, under the supervision of the Fund’s Valuation Committee. Factors that may be considered to value foreign securities at fair market value may include, among others: the value of other securities traded on other markets, foreign currency exchange activity and the trading of financial products tied to foreign securities.

 

Other securities for which quotations are not readily available also are valued at fair market value as determined in good faith using guidelines established by and under the supervision of the Board of Directors, and the Fund’s Valuation Committee. These guidelines may include: the type of security’ any restrictions on its resale; financial or business news of the issuer; similar or related securities that are actively trading; related corporate actions; and other significant events occurring after the close of trading in the security.

NOTE  1–(continued)

 

Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investors Bank & Trust Company (“IBT”). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at June 30, 2004, was paying an interest rate of 0.75%.

 

Repurchase agreements: The Fund is authorized to enter into repurchase agreements. The Fund, through IBT, receives delivery of the underlying securities, the value of which at the time of purchase is required to be an amount equal to at least 100% of the resale price. Repurchase agreements involve the risk that the seller will fail to repurchase the security, as agreed. In that case, the Fund will bear the risk of value fluctuations until the security can be sold and may encounter delays and incur costs in liquidating the security. In the event of bankruptcy or insolvency of the seller, delays and costs are incurred.

 

Directed brokerage: The sub-adviser, to the extent consistent with the best execution and usual commission rate policies and practices, may place security transactions of the Fund with broker/dealers with which ATSF has established a Directed Brokerage Program. A Directed Brokerage Program is any arrangement under which a broker/dealer applies a portion of the commissions received by such broker/dealer on the security transactions to the Fund. In no event will commissions paid by the Fund be used to pay expenses that would otherwise be borne by any other funds within ATSF, or by any other party. Directed commissions for the period ended June 30, 2004, of $131 are included in net realized gains in the Statement of Operations.

 

Securities lending: The Fund may lend securities to enhance fund earnings from investing cash collateral received in making such loans to qualified borrowers (typically broker/dealers). The Fund has engaged its custodian bank, IBT, as a lending agent to administer its securities lending program. IBT earned $26 of program net income for its services. When the Fund makes a security loan, it receives cash collateral as protection against the risk that the borrower will default on the loan, and records an asset for the cash invested collateral and a liability for the return of the collateral.

 

Loans of securities are required to be secured by collateral at least equal to 102% of the value of the securities at inception of the loan, and not less then 100% thereafter. The Fund may invest cash collateral in short-term money market instruments including: U.S. Treasury Bills, U.S. agency obligations, commercial paper, money market mutual funds, repurchase agreements and other highly rated, liquid investments. During the life of securities loans, the collateral and securities loaned remain subject to fluctuation in value. IBT marks to market securities loaned and the collateral each business day. If additional collateral is due (at least $1), IBT collects additional cash collateral from the borrowers. Although securities loaned will be fully collateralized at all times, IBT may experience delays in, or may be prevented from, recovering the collateral on behalf of the Fund. The Fund may recall a loaned security position at any time from the borrower through IBT. In the event the borrower fails to timely return a recalled security, IBT may indemnify the Fund by purchasing replacement securities for the Fund at its own expense and claiming the collateral to fund such a purchase. IBT absorbs the loss if the collateral value is not sufficient to cover the cost of the replacement securities. If replacement securities are not available, IBT will credit the equivalent cash value to the Fund.

 

While a security is on loan, the Fund does not have the right to vote that security. However, if time permits, the Fund will attempt to recall a security on loan and vote the proxy.

 

Income from securities lending is included in the Statement of Operations. The amount of collateral and value of securities on loan are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as well as in the Schedule of Investments.

 

Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the first-in, first-out basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, in the case of foreign securities, as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, including accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis commencing on the settlement date.

 

Foreign currency denominated investments: The accounting records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the closing exchange rate each day. The cost of foreign securities is translated at the exchange rate in effect when the investment was acquired. The Fund combines fluctuations from currency exchange rates and fluctuations in value when computing net realized and unrealized gains or losses from investments.

 

Net foreign currency gains and losses resulting from changes in exchange rates include: 1) foreign currency fluctuations between trade date and settlement date of investment security transactions; 2) gains and losses on forward foreign currency contracts; and 3) the difference between the receivable amounts of interest and dividends recorded in the accounting records in U.S. dollars and the amounts actually received.

 

Foreign currency denominated assets may involve risks not typically associated with domestic transactions, including unanticipated movements in exchange currency rates, the degree of government supervision and regulation of security markets, and the possibility of political or economic instability.

 

Foreign capital gains taxes: The Fund may be subject to taxes imposed by countries in which it invests, with respect to its investment in issuers existing or operating in such countries. Such taxes are generally based on income earned or repatriated and capital gains realized on the sale of such investments. The Fund accrues such taxes when the related income or capital gains are earned. Some countries require governmental approval for the repatriation of investment income, capital or the proceeds of sales earned by foreign investors. In addition, if there is a deterioration in a country’s balance of payments or for other rea -

sons, a country may impose temporary restrictions on foreign capital remittances abroad.

 

The Fund’s investments in India are subject to a 30% governmental short-term capital gains tax. The Indian government has elected to waive the long-term capital gains tax of 10% on equities securities held for longer than one year. This waiver of tax is effective through March of 2007. Such taxes are due upon sale of individual securities. The Fund accrues for taxes on the capital gains throughout the holding period of the underlying securities.

 

Forward foreign currency contracts: The Fund may enter into forward foreign currency contracts to hedge against exchange rate risk arising from investments in securities denominated in foreign currencies. Contracts are valued at the contractual forward rate and are marked to market daily, with the change in value recorded as an unrealized gain or loss. When the contracts are closed a realized gain or loss is incurred. Risks may arise from changes in market value of the underlying currencies and from the possible inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts. Open forward currency contracts at June 30, 2004, are listed in the Schedule of Investments.

 

Dividend distributions: Dividend and capital gains distributions are typically declared and reinvested annually and are generally paid and reinvested on the business day following the ex-date.

 

NOTE  2. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

 

AEGON/Transamerica Fund Advisers, Inc. (“ATFA”) is the Fund’s investment adviser. AEGON/Transamerica Fund Services, Inc. (“ATFS”) is the Fund’s administrator and transfer agent. AFSG Securities Corp. (“AFSG”) is the Fund’s distributor. AFSG is 100% owned by AUSA Holding Company (“AUSA”). ATFA is a directly owned subsidiary of Western Reserve Life Assurance Co. of Ohio (78%) (“WRL”) and AUSA (22%). ATFS is a wholly owned subsidiary of WRL. AUSA and WRL are wholly owned indirect subsidiaries of AEGON NV, a Netherlands corporation.

 

Great Companies, LLC, is both an affiliate of the Fund and a co-subadviser of the Fund, managing the domestic portion of the Fund.

 

Certain officers and directors of the Fund are also officers and/or directors of ATFA, ATFS, AFSG and WRL. No affiliated officer or director receives any compensation directly from the Fund.

 

Investment advisory fees: The Fund pays management fees to ATFA based on average daily net assets (“ANA”) at the following breakpoints:

 

From January 1, 2004 to April 30, 2004:

 

0.80% of ANA

From May 1, 2004 on:

 

0.75% of first $500 million of ANA

0.725% of the next $1 billion of ANA

0.70% of ANA over $1.5 billion

 

The actual advisory fee accrued for the six-month period ended June 30, 2004, per average net assets is 0.78%.

 

ATFA has contractually agreed to waive its advisory fee and will reimburse the Fund to the extent that operating expenses, excluding 12b-1 fees, exceed the following stated annual limit:

 

1.00% Expense Limit

 

If total fund expenses fall below the annual expense limitations agreed to by the adviser within the succeeding three years, the Fund may be required to pay the adviser a portion or all of the waived advisory fees.

 

There are no amounts subject to recapture at June 30, 2004.

 

Distribution and service fees: The Fund adopted a distribution plan (“Distribution Plan”) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Pursuant to the Distribution Plan, ATSF entered into a Distribution Agreement with AFSG effective

May 1, 1999.

 

Under the Distribution Plan and Distribution Agreement on the Initial Class shares, AFSG, on behalf of the Fund, is authorized to pay various service providers, as direct payment for expenses incurred in connection with distribution of the Fund’s shares, amounts equal to actual expenses associated with distributing the shares.

 

The Distribution Plan on the Service Class shares requires ATSF to pay distribution fees to AFSG as compensation for its activities, not as reimbursement for specific expenses. The fee on the Service Class is paid to the insurance companies for providing services and account maintenance for their policyholders who invest in the variable insurance products which invest in the Service Class shares.

 

The Fund is authorized under the 12b-1 plan to pay fees on each class up to the following limits:

 

Initial Class

   0.15%

Service Class

   0.25%

 

AFSG has determined that it will not seek payment by the Fund of the distribution expenses incurred with respect to the Initial Class shares

before April 30, 2005. Prior to AFSG seeking reimbursement of future expenses, policy and contract owners will be notified in advance. The Fund will pay fees relating to Service Class shares.

 

Administrative services: The Fund has entered into an agreement with ATFS for financial and legal fund administration services, which includes such items as compliance, expenses, financial statements and other reporting, distributions, tax returns, prospectus preparation, board of directors meeting support, transfer agency and other legal matters. The Legal fees on the Statement of Operations are for fees paid

NOTE  4. FEDERAL INCOME TAX MATTERS

 

The Fund has not made any provision for federal income taxes due to its policy to distribute all of its taxable income and capital gains to its shareholders and otherwise qualify as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for items including, but not limited to, wash sales, foreign currency transactions, net operating losses and capital loss carryforwards.

The Fund has elected to treat the net capital and currency losses incurred in the two month period prior to December 31, 2003 of $7,122 (Post-October Loss Deferred) as having been incurred in the fiscal year ending December 31, 2004.

 

The aggregate cost of investments and composition of unrealized appreciation (depreciation) for federal income tax purposes as of June 30, 2004, are as follows:

NOTE  1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The AEGON/Transamerica Series Fund, Inc. (“ATSF”) is a Maryland corporation registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. ATSF serves as a funding vehicle for variable life insurance, variable annuity and group annuity products. Third Avenue Value (“the Fund”), part of ATSF, began operations on January 2, 1998. The Fund is “non-diversified” under 1940 Act.

 

In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties, which provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote.

 

See the Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information for a description of the Fund’s investment objective.

 

In preparing the Fund’s financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with GAAP.

 

Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers two classes of shares, an Initial Class and a Service Class. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses.

 

Pricing of shares: The Fund prices its shares on the basis of the net asset value of each class of shares of the Fund, which is determined as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) (generally 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time) on each day on which the NYSE is open for trading (other than a day on which there are insufficient changes in the value of the Fund’s portfolio securities to materially affect the Fund’s net asset value or a day on which no shares are tendered for redemption and no order to purchase any shares is received).

 

Security valuations: Fund investments traded on an exchange are valued at the closing price on the day of valuation on the exchange where the security is principally traded.

 

Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the last quoted bid price.

Debt securities are valued by independent pricing services; however, those that mature in sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market.

 

Investment company securities are valued at the net asset value of the underlying portfolio.

 

Foreign securities generally are valued based on quotations from the primary market in which they are traded and are translated from the local currency into U.S. dollars using closing exchange rates. Many foreign securities markets are open for trading at times when the U.S. markets are closed for trading and many foreign securities markets close for trading before the close of the NYSE. The value of foreign securities may be affected significantly on a day that the NYSE is closed and an investor is unable to purchase or redeem shares. If a significant market event impacting the value of a portfolio security (e.g., natural disaster, company announcement, market volatility) occurs subsequent to the close of trading in the security, but prior to the calculation of the Fund’s net asset value per share, market quotations for that security may be determined to be unreliable and, accordingly, not “readily available.” If market quotations are not readily available, and the impact of such a significant market event materially affects the net asset value per share of the Fund, an affected portfolio security will be valued at fair market value as determined in good faith using guidelines adopted by the Board of Directors of the Fund, under the supervision of the Fund’s Valuation Committee. Factors that may be considered to value foreign securities at fair market value may include, among others: the value of other securities traded on other markets, foreign currency exchange activity and the trading of financial products tied to foreign securities.

 

Other securities for which quotations are not readily available also are valued at fair market value as determined in good faith using guidelines established by and under the supervision of the Board of Directors, and the Fund’s Valuation Committee. These guidelines may include: the type of security; any restrictions on its resale; financial or business news of the issuer; similar or related securities that are actively trading; related corporate actions; and other significant events occurring after the close of trading in the security.

 

Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investors Bank & Trust Company (“IBT”). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at June 30, 2004, was paying an interest rate of 0.75%.

 

Repurchase agreements: The Fund is authorized to enter into repurchase agreements. The Fund, through IBT, receives delivery of the underlying securities, the value of which at the time of purchase is required to be an amount equal to at least 100% of the resale price. Repurchase agreements involve the risk that the seller will fail to repurchase the security, as agreed. In that case, the Fund will bear the risk of value fluctuations until the security can be sold and may encounter delays and incur costs in liquidating the security. In the event of bankruptcy or insolvency of the seller, delays and costs are incurred.

 

Directed brokerage: The sub-adviser, to the extent consistent with the best execution and usual commission rate policies and practices, may

NOTE  1–(continued)

 

place security transactions of the Fund with broker/dealers with which

ATSF has established a Directed Brokerage Program. A Directed Brokerage Program is any arrangement under which a broker/dealer applies a portion of the commissions received by such broker/dealer on the security transactions to the Fund. In no event will commissions paid by the Fund be used to pay expenses that would otherwise be borne by any other funds within ATSF, or by any other party. Directed commissions for the period ended June 30, 2004, of $2 are included in net realized gains in the Statement of Operations.

 

Securities lending: The Fund may lend securities to enhance fund earnings from investing cash collateral received in making such loans to qualified borrowers (typically broker/dealers). The Fund has engaged its custodian bank, IBT, as a lending agent to administer its securities lending program. IBT earned $49 of program net income for its services. When the Fund makes a security loan, it receives cash collateral as protection against the risk that the borrower will default on the loan, and records an asset for the cash invested collateral and a liability for the return of the collateral.

 

Loans of securities are required to be secured by collateral at least equal to 102% of the value of the securities at inception of the loan, and not less then 100% thereafter. The Fund may invest cash collateral in short-term money market instruments including: U.S. Treasury Bills, U.S. agency obligations, commercial paper, money market mutual funds, repurchase agreements and other highly rated, liquid investments. During the life of securities loans, the collateral and securities loaned remain subject to fluctuation in value. IBT marks to market securities loaned and the collateral each business day. If additional collateral is due (at least $1), IBT collects additional cash collateral from the borrowers. Although securities loaned will be fully collateralized at all times, IBT may experience delays in, or may be prevented from, recovering the collateral on behalf of the Fund. The Fund may recall a loaned security position at any time from the borrower through IBT. In the event the borrower fails to timely return a recalled security, IBT may indemnify the Fund by purchasing replacement securities for the Fund at its own expense and claiming the collateral to fund such a purchase. IBT absorbs the loss if the collateral value is not sufficient to cover the cost of the replacement securities. If replacement securities are not available, IBT will credit the equivalent cash value to the Fund.

 

While a security is on loan, the Fund does not have the right to vote that security. However, if time permits, the Fund will attempt to recall a security on loan and vote the proxy.

 

Income from securities lending is included in the Statement of Operations. The amount of collateral and value of securities on loan are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as well as in the Schedule of Investments.

Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the first-in, first-out basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, in the case of foreign securities, as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, including accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis commencing on the settlement date.

 

Foreign currency denominated investments: The accounting records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the closing exchange rate each day. The cost of foreign securities is translated at the exchange rate in effect when the investment was acquired. The Fund combines fluctuations from currency exchange rates and fluctuations in value when computing net realized and unrealized gains or losses from investments.

 

Net foreign currency gains and losses resulting from changes in exchange rates include: 1) foreign currency fluctuations between trade date and settlement date of investment security transactions; 2) gains and losses on forward foreign currency contracts; and 3) the difference between the receivable amounts of interest and dividends recorded in the accounting records in U.S. dollars and the amounts actually received.

 

Foreign currency denominated assets may involve risks not typically associated with domestic transactions, including unanticipated movements in exchange currency rates, the degree of government supervision and regulation of security markets, and the possibility of political or economic instability.

 

Forward foreign currency contracts: The Fund may enter into forward foreign currency contracts to hedge against exchange rate risk arising from investments in securities denominated in foreign currencies. Contracts are valued at the contractual forward rate and are marked to market daily, with the change in value recorded as an unrealized gain or loss. When the contracts are closed a realized gain or loss is incurred. Risks may arise from changes in market value of the underlying currencies and from the possible inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts. Open forward currency contracts at June 30, 2004, are listed in the Schedule of Investments.

 

Dividend distributions: Dividend and capital gains distributions are typically declared and reinvested annually and are generally paid and reinvested on the business day following the ex-date.

Investment advisory fees: The Fund pays management fees to ATFA based on average daily net assets (“ANA”) at the following rate:

 

0.80% of ANA

 

ATFA has contractually agreed to waive its advisory fee and will reimburse the Fund to the extent that operating expenses, excluding 12b-1 fees, exceed the following stated annual limit:

 

1.00% Expense Limit

 

If total fund expenses fall below the annual expense limitations agreed to by the adviser within the succeeding three years, the Fund may be required to pay the adviser a portion or all of the waived advisory fees.

 

There are no amounts subject to recapture at June 30, 2004.

 

Distribution and service fees: The Fund adopted a distribution plan (“Distribution Plan”) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Pursuant to the Distribution Plan, ATSF entered into a Distribution Agreement with AFSG effective May 1, 1999.

 

Under the Distribution Plan and Distribution Agreement on the Initial Class shares, AFSG, on behalf of the Fund, is authorized to pay various service providers, as direct payment for expenses incurred in connection with distribution of the Fund’s shares, amounts equal to actual expenses associated with distributing the shares.

The Distribution Plan on the Service Class shares requires ATSF to pay distribution fees to AFSG as compensation for its activities, not as reimbursement for specific expenses. The fee on the Service Class is paid to the insurance companies for providing services and account maintenance for their policyholders who invest in the variable insurance products which invest in the Service Class shares.

 

The Fund is authorized under the 12b-1 plan to pay fees on each class up to the following limits:

 

Initial Class

   0.15%

Service Class

   0.25%

 

AFSG has determined that it will not seek payment by the Fund of the distribution expenses incurred with respect to the Initial Class shares before April 30, 2005. Prior to AFSG seeking reimbursement of future expenses, policy and contract owners will be notified in advance. The Fund will pay fees relating to Service Class shares.

 

Administrative services: The Fund has entered into an agreement with ATFS for financial and legal fund administration services, which includes such items as compliance, expenses, financial statements and other reporting, distributions, tax returns, prospectus preparation, board of directors meeting support, transfer agency and other legal matters. The Legal fees on the Statement of Operations are for fees paid to external legal counsel. The Fund paid ATFS $37 for Administration fees for the period ended June 30, 2004.

 

Brokerage commissions: Brokerage commissions incurred on security transactions placed with an affiliate of the sub-adviser for the period ended June 30, 2004, were $259.

 

Deferred compensation plan: Each eligible Fund Director may elect participation in the Deferred Compensation Plan for Directors of ATSF (“the Plan”). Under the Plan, such Directors may defer payment of a percentage of their total fees earned as a Fund Director. These deferred amounts may be invested in any portfolio of Transamerica IDEX Mutual Funds, an affiliate of the Fund. At June 30, 2004, the value of invested plan amounts was $20. Invested plan amounts and the total liability for deferred compensation to the Directors under the Plan at June 30, 2004, are included in Net assets in the accompanying Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

NOTE  4. FEDERAL INCOME TAX MATTERS

 

The Fund has not made any provision for federal income taxes due to its policy to distribute all of its taxable income and capital gains to its shareholders and otherwise qualify as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for items including, but not limited to, wash sales, foreign currency transactions, and capital loss carryforwards.

 

The capital loss carryforwards are available to offset future realized capital gains through the period listed:

 

Capital Loss
Carryforward


  

Available through


$257    December 31, 2011

The Fund has elected to treat the net capital and currency losses incurred in the two month period prior to December 31, 2003 of $568 (Post-October Loss Deferred) as having been incurred in the fiscal year ending December 31, 2004.

 

The aggregate cost of investments and composition of unrealized appreciation (depreciation) for federal income tax purposes as of June 30, 2004, are as follows:

 

Federal Tax Cost Basis

   $   492,389  
    


Unrealized Appreciation

   $ 133,346  

Unrealized (Depreciation)

     (3,874 )

(unaudited)

 

NOTE  1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The AEGON/Transamerica Series Fund, Inc. (“ATSF”) is a Maryland corporation registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. ATSF serves as a funding vehicle for variable life insurance, variable annuity and group annuity products. Transamerica Balanced (“the Fund”), part of ATSF, began operations on May 1, 2002.

 

On May 3, 2004, the Fund changed its name from Janus Balanced to Transamerica Balanced and changed its sub-adviser from Janus Capital Management, LLC to Transamerica Investment Management, LLC.

 

In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties, which provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote.

 

See the Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information for a description of the Fund’s investment objective.

 

In preparing the Fund’s financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with GAAP.

 

Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers two classes of shares, an Initial Class and a Service Class. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses.

 

Pricing of shares: The Fund prices its shares on the basis of the net asset value of each class of shares of the Fund, which is determined as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) (generally 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time) on each day on which the NYSE is open for trading (other than a day on which there are insufficient changes in the value of the Fund’s portfolio securities to materially affect the Fund’s net asset value or a day on which no shares are tendered for redemption and no order to purchase any shares is received).

 

Security valuations: Fund investments traded on an exchange are valued at the closing price on the day of valuation on the exchange where the security is principally traded.

Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the last quoted bid price.

 

Debt securities are valued by independent pricing services; however, those that mature in sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market.

 

Investment company securities are valued at the net asset value of the underlying portfolio.

 

Foreign securities are valued based on quotations from the primary market in which they are traded and are translated from the local currency into U.S. dollars using closing exchange rates. Many foreign securities markets are open for trading at times when the U.S. markets are closed for trading, and many foreign securities markets close for trading before the close of the NYSE. The value of foreign securities may be affected significantly on a day that the NYSE is closed and an investor is unable to purchase or redeem shares. If a significant market event impacting the value of a portfolio security (e.g. natural disaster, company announcement, market volatility) occurs subsequent to the close of trading in the security, but prior to the calculation of the Fund’s net asset value per share, market quotations for the security may be determined to be unreliable and, accordingly, not “readily available.” If market quotations are not readily available, and the impact of such a significant market event materially affects the net asset value per share of the Fund, an affected portfolio security will be valued at fair market value as determined in good faith using guidelines adopted by the Board of Directors of the Fund, under the supervision of the Fund’s Valuation Committee. Factors that may be considered to value foreign securities at fair market value may include, among others: the value of other securities traded on other markets, foreign currency exchange activity and the trading of financial products tied to foreign securities.

 

Other securities for which quotations are not readily available also are valued at fair market value as determined in good faith using guidelines established by and under the supervision of the Board of Directors, and the Fund’s Valuation Committee. These guidelines may include: the type of security; any restrictions on its resale; financial or business news of the issuer; similar or related securities that are actively trading; related corporate actions; and other significant events occurring after the close of trading in the security.

 

Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investors Bank & Trust Company (“IBT”). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at June 30, 2004, was paying an interest rate of 0.75%.

 

Repurchase agreements: The Fund is authorized to enter into repurchase agreements. The Fund, through IBT, receives delivery of the underlying securities, the value of which at the time of purchase is required to be an amount equal to at least 100% of the resale price. Repurchase agreements involve the risk that the seller will fail to repurchase the security, as agreed. In that case, the Fund will bear the risk of value fluctuations until the security can be sold and may encounter delays and incur costs in liquidating the security. In the

event of bankruptcy or insolvency of the seller, delays and costs are incurred.

 

Directed brokerage: The sub-adviser, to the extent consistent with the best execution and usual commission rate policies and practices, may place security transactions of the Fund with broker/dealers with which ATSF has established a Directed Brokerage Program. A Directed Brokerage Program is any arrangement under which a broker/dealer applies a portion of the commissions received by such broker/dealer on the security transactions to the Fund. In no event will commissions paid by the Fund be used to pay expenses that would otherwise be borne by any other funds within ATSF, or by any other party. Directed commissions for the period ended June 30, 2004, of $6 are included in net realized gains in the Statement of Operations.

 

Securities lending: The Fund may lend securities to enhance fund earnings from investing cash collateral received in making such loans to qualified borrowers (typically broker/dealers). The Fund has engaged its custodian bank, IBT, as a lending agent to administer its securities lending program. IBT earned $3 of program net income for its services. When the Fund makes a security loan, it receives cash collateral as protection against the risk that the borrower will default on the loan, and records an asset for the cash invested collateral and a liability for the return of the collateral.

 

Loans of securities are required to be secured by collateral at least equal to 102% of the value of the securities at inception of the loan, and not less then 100% thereafter. The Fund may invest cash collateral in short-term money market instruments including: U.S. Treasury Bills, U.S. agency obligations, commercial paper, money market mutual funds, repurchase agreements and other highly rated, liquid investments. During the life of securities loans, the collateral and securities loaned remain subject to fluctuation in value. IBT marks to market securities loaned and the collateral each business day. If additional collateral is due (at least $1), IBT collects additional cash collateral from the borrowers. Although securities loaned will be fully collateralized at all times, IBT may experience delays in, or may be prevented from, recovering the collateral on behalf of the Fund. The Fund may recall a loaned security position at any time from the borrower through IBT. In the event the borrower fails to timely return a recalled security, IBT may indemnify the Fund by purchasing replacement securities for the Fund at its own expense and claiming the collateral to fund such a purchase. IBT absorbs the loss if the collateral value is not sufficient to cover the cost of the replacement securities. If replacement securities are not available, IBT will credit the equivalent cash value to the Fund.

 

While a security is on loan, the Fund does not have the right to vote that security. However, if time permits, the Fund will attempt to recall a security on loan and vote the proxy.

Income from securities lending is included in the Statement of Operations. The amount of collateral and value of securities on loan are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as well as in the Schedule of Investments.

 

Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the first-in, first-out basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, in the case of foreign securities, as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, including accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis commencing on the settlement date.

 

Foreign currency denominated investments: The accounting records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the closing exchange rate each day. The cost of foreign securities is translated at the exchange rate in effect when the investment was acquired. The Fund combines fluctuations from currency exchange rates and fluctuations in value when computing net realized and unrealized gains or losses from investments.

 

Net foreign currency gains and losses resulting from changes in exchange rates include: 1) foreign currency fluctuations between trade date and settlement date of investment security transactions; 2) gains and losses on forward foreign currency contracts; and 3) the difference between the receivable amounts of interest and dividends recorded in the accounting records in U.S. dollars and the amounts actually received.

 

Foreign currency denominated assets may involve risks not typically associated with domestic transactions, including unanticipated movements in exchange currency rates, the degree of government supervision and regulation of security markets, and the possibility of political or economic instability.

 

Forward foreign currency contracts: The Fund may enter into forward foreign currency contracts to hedge against exchange rate risk arising from investments in securities denominated in foreign currencies. Contracts are valued at the contractual forward rate and are marked to market daily, with the change in value recorded as an unrealized gain or loss. When the contracts are closed a realized gain or loss is incurred. Risks may arise from changes in market value of the underlying currencies and from the possible inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts.

 

Dividend distributions: Dividend and capital gains distributions are typically declared and reinvested annually and are generally paid and reinvested on the business day following the ex-date.

by AUSA Holding Company (“AUSA”). ATFA is a directly owned subsidiary of Western Reserve Life Assurance Co. of Ohio (78%) (“WRL”) and AUSA (22%). ATFS is a wholly owned subsidiary of WRL. AUSA and WRL are wholly owned indirect subsidiaries of AEGON NV, a Netherlands corporation.

 

Transamerica Investment Management, LLC is both an affiliate of the Fund and sub-adviser to the Fund.

 

Certain officers and directors of the Fund are also officers and/or directors of ATFA, ATFS, AFSG and WRL. No affiliated officer or director receives any compensation directly from the Fund.

 

Investment advisory fees: The Fund pays management fees to ATFA based on average daily net assets (“ANA”) at the following breakpoints:

 

From January 1, 2004 to April 30, 2004:

 

0.90% of the first $500 million of ANA

0.85% of the next $500 million of ANA

0.80% of ANA over $1 billion

 

From May 1, 2004 on:

 

0.80% of the first $250 million of ANA

0.775% of the next $250 million of ANA

0.75% of the next $500 million of ANA

0.70% of the next $500 million of ANA

0.65% of ANA over $1.5 billion

 

The actual advisory fee accrued for the six-month period ended June 30, 2004, per average net assets is 0.87%

 

ATFA has contractually agreed to waive its advisory fee and will reimburse the Fund to the extent that operating expenses, excluding 12b-1 fees, exceed the following stated annual limit:

 

1.40% Expense Limit

 

If total fund expenses fall below the annual expense limitations agreed to by the adviser within the succeeding three years, the Fund may be required to pay the adviser a portion or all of the waived advisory fees.

 

There are no amounts subject to recapture at June 30, 2004.

 

Distribution and service fees: The Fund adopted a distribution plan (“Distribution Plan”) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Pursuant to the Distribution Plan, ATSF entered into a Distribution Agreement with AFSG effective May 1, 1999.

Under the Distribution Plan and Distribution Agreement on the Initial Class shares, AFSG, on behalf of the Fund, is authorized to pay various service providers, as direct payment for expenses incurred in connection with distribution of the Fund’s shares, amounts equal to actual expenses associated with distributing the shares.

 

The Distribution Plan on the Service Class shares requires ATSF to pay distribution fees to AFSG as compensation for its activities, not as reimbursement for specific expenses. The fee on the Service Class is paid to the insurance companies for providing services and account maintenance for their policyholders who invest in the variable insurance products which invest in the Service Class shares.

 

The Fund is authorized under the 12b-1 plan to pay fees on each class up to the following limits:

 

Initial Class

   0.15%

Service Class

   0.25%

 

AFSG has determined that it will not seek payment by the Fund of the distribution expenses incurred with respect to the Initial Class shares before April 30, 2005. Prior to AFSG seeking reimbursement of future expenses, policy and contract owners will be notified in advance. The Fund will pay fees relating to Service Class shares.

 

Administrative services: The Fund has entered into an agreement with ATFS for financial and legal fund administration services, which includes such items as compliance, expenses, financial statements and other reporting, distributions, tax returns, prospectus preparation, board of directors meeting support, transfer agency and other legal matters. The Legal fees on the Statement of Operations are for fees paid to external legal counsel. The Fund paid ATFS $5 for Administration fees for the period ended June 30, 2004.

 

Deferred compensation plan: Each eligible Fund Director may elect participation in the Deferred Compensation Plan for Directors of ATSF (“the Plan”). Under the Plan, such Directors may defer payment of a percentage of their total fees earned as a Fund Director. These deferred amounts may be invested in any portfolio of Transamerica IDEX Mutual Funds, an affiliate of the Fund. At June 30, 2004, the value of invested plan amounts was $2. Invested plan amounts and the total liability for deferred compensation to the Directors under the Plan at June 30, 2004, are included in Net assets in the accompanying Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

NOTE  1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The AEGON/Transamerica Series Fund, Inc. (“ATSF”) is a Maryland corporation registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. ATSF serves as a funding vehicle for variable life insurance, variable annuity and group annuity products. Transamerica Convertible Securities (“the Fund”), part of ATSF, began operations on May 1, 2002.

 

In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties, which provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote.

 

See the Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information for a description of the Fund’s investment objective.

 

In preparing the Fund’s financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with GAAP.

 

Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers two classes of shares, an Initial Class and a Service Class. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses.

 

Pricing of shares: The Fund prices its shares on the basis of the net asset value of each class of shares of the Fund, which is determined as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) (generally 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time) on each day on which the NYSE is open for trading (other than a day on which there are insufficient changes in the value of the Fund’s portfolio securities to materially affect the Fund’s net asset value or a day on which no shares are tendered for redemption and no order to purchase any shares is received).

 

Security valuations: Fund investments traded on an exchange are valued at the closing price on the day of valuation on the exchange where the security is principally traded.

 

Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the last quoted bid price.

Debt securities are valued by independent pricing services; however, those that mature in sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market.

 

Investment company securities are valued at the net asset value of the underlying portfolio.

 

Other securities for which quotations are not readily available also are valued at fair market value as determined in good faith using guidelines established by and under the supervision of the Board of Directors and the Fund’s Valuation Committee. These guidelines may include: the type of security; any restrictions on its resale; financial or business news of the issuer; similar or related securities that are actively trading; related corporate actions; and other significant events occurring after the close of trading in the security.

 

Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investors Bank & Trust Company (“IBT”). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at June 30, 2004, was paying an interest rate of 0.75%.

 

Repurchase agreements: The Fund is authorized to enter into repurchase agreements. The Fund, through IBT, receives delivery of the underlying securities, the value of which at the time of purchase is required to be in an amount equal to at least 100% of the resale price. Repurchase agreements involve the risk that the seller will fail to repurchase the security, as agreed. In that case, the Fund will bear the risk of value fluctuations until the security can be sold and may encounter delays and incur costs in liquidating the security. In the event of bankruptcy or insolvency of the seller, delays and costs are incurred.

 

Securities lending: The Fund may lend securities to enhance fund earnings from investing cash collateral received in making such loans to qualified borrowers (typically broker/dealers). The Fund has engaged its custodian bank, IBT, as a lending agent to administer its securities lending program. IBT earned $27 of program net income for its services. When the Fund makes a security loan, it receives cash collateral as protection against the risk that the borrower will default on the loan, and records an asset for the cash invested collateral and a liability for the return of the collateral.

 

Loans of securities are required to be secured by collateral at least equal to 102% of the value of the securities at inception of the loan, and not less then 100% thereafter. The Fund may invest cash collateral in short-term money market instruments including: U.S. Treasury Bills, U.S. agency obligations, commercial paper, money market mutual funds, repurchase agreements and other highly rated, liquid investments. During the life of securities loans, the collateral and securities loaned remain subject to fluctuation in value. IBT marks to market securities loaned and the collateral each business day. If additional collateral is due (at least $1), IBT collects additional cash collateral from the borrowers. Although securities loaned will be fully collateralized at all times, IBT may experience delays in, or may be prevented from, recovering the collateral on behalf of the Fund. The Fund may recall a loaned security position at any time from the borrower through IBT. In

NOTE  1–(continued)

 

the event the borrower fails to timely return a recalled security, IBT may indemnify the Fund by purchasing replacement securities for the Fund at its own expense and claiming the collateral to fund such a purchase. IBT absorbs the loss if the collateral value is not sufficient to cover the cost of the replacement securities. If replacement securities are not available, IBT will credit the equivalent cash value to the Fund.

 

While a security is on loan, the Fund does not have the right to vote that security. However, if time permits, the Fund will attempt to recall a security on loan and vote the proxy.

 

Income from securities lending is included in the Statement of Operations. The amount of collateral and value of securities on loan are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as well as in the Schedule of Investments.

 

Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the first-in, first-out basis. Interest income, including accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis commencing on the settlement date.

 

Dividend distributions: Dividend and capital gains distributions are typically declared and reinvested annually and are generally paid and reinvested on the business day following the ex-date.

 

NOTE  2. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

 

AEGON/Transamerica Fund Advisers, Inc. (“ATFA”) is the Fund’s investment adviser. AEGON/Transamerica Fund Services, Inc. (“ATFS”) is the Fund’s administrator and transfer agent. AFSG Securities Corp. (“AFSG”) is the Fund’s distributor. AFSG is 100% owned by AUSA Holding Company (“AUSA”). ATFA is a directly owned subsidiary of Western Reserve Life Assurance Co. of Ohio (78%) (“WRL”) and AUSA (22%). ATFS is a wholly owned subsidiary of WRL. AUSA and WRL are wholly owned indirect subsidiaries of AEGON NV, a Netherlands corporation.

 

Certain officers and directors of the Fund are also officers and/or directors of ATFA, ATFS, AFSG and WRL. No affiliated officer or director receives any compensation directly from the Fund.

 

Transamerica Investment Management, LLC is both an affiliate of the Fund and a sub-adviser to the Fund.

 

The following schedule reflects the percentage of fund assets owned by affiliated mutual funds (i.e. through the asset allocation funds):

 

     Net Assets

   % of
Net Assets


 

Asset Allocation–Conservative Portfolio

   $ 99,158    24 %

Asset Allocation–Moderate Growth Portfolio

     79,629    20 %

Asset Allocation–Moderate Portfolio

     163,225    40 %
    

  

Total    $   342,012    84 %
    

  

Investment advisory fees: The Fund pays management fees to ATFA based on average daily net assets (“ANA”) at the following breakpoints:

 

0.80% of the first $500 million of ANA

0.70% of ANA over $500 million

 

ATFA has contractually agreed to waive its advisory fee and will reimburse the Fund to the extent that operating expenses, excluding 12b-1 fees, exceed the following stated annual limit:

 

1.30% Expense Limit

 

If total fund expenses fall below the annual expense limitations agreed to by the adviser within the succeeding three years, the Fund may be required to pay the adviser a portion or all of the waived advisory fees.

 

There are no amounts subject to recapture at June 30, 2004.

 

Distribution and service fees: The Fund adopted a distribution plan (“Distribution Plan”) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Pursuant to the Distribution Plan, ATSF entered into a Distribution Agreement with AFSG effective May 1, 1999.

 

Under the Distribution Plan and Distribution Agreement on the Initial Class shares, AFSG, on behalf of the Fund, is authorized to pay various service providers, as direct payment for expenses incurred in connection with distribution of the Fund’s shares, amounts equal to actual expenses associated with distributing the shares.

 

The Distribution Plan on the Service Class shares requires ATSF to pay distribution fees to AFSG as compensation for its activities, not as reimbursement for specific expenses. The fee on the Service Class is paid to the insurance companies for providing services and account maintenance for their policyholders who invest in the variable insurance products which invest in the Service Class shares.

 

The Fund is authorized under the 12b-1 plan to pay fees on each class up to the following limits:

 

Initial Class

   0.15%

Service Class

   0.25%

 

AFSG has determined that it will not seek payment by the Fund of the distribution expenses incurred with respect to the Initial Class shares before April 30, 2005.

NOTE  1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The AEGON/Transamerica Series Fund, Inc. (“ATSF”) is a Maryland corporation registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. ATSF serves as a funding vehicle for variable life insurance, variable annuity and group annuity products. Transamerica Equity (“the Fund”), part of ATSF, began operations as Growth Portfolio, a part of Transamerica Variable Insurance Fund on November 1, 1996. The Growth Portfolio was the successor to Transamerica Occidental’s Separate Account Fund C. The Fund became part of ATSF on May 1, 2002.

 

On May 3, 2004, the Fund acquired all the net assets of Alger Aggressive Growth and BlackRock Mid Cap Growth pursuant to plans of reorganization approved by the shareholders of Alger Aggressive Growth and BlackRock Mid Cap Growth. The acquisitions were accomplished by tax-free exchanges of 26,836 and 1,367 shares of the Fund, respectively, for the 34,617 shares of Alger Aggressive Growth and 2,691 shares of BlackRock Mid Cap Growth, outstanding on April 30, 2004. Alger Aggressive Growth’s net assets ($494,472 including $51,571 of unrealized appreciation) and BlackRock Mid Cap Growth’s net assets ($25,188, including $1,979 of unrealized appreciation) at that date, were combined with those of the Fund, resulting in combined net assets of $1,164,537.

 

In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties, which provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote.

 

See the Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information for a description of the Fund’s investment objective.

 

In preparing the Fund’s financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with GAAP.

 

Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers two classes of shares, an Initial Class and a Service Class. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses.

Pricing of shares: The Fund prices its shares on the basis of the net asset value of each class of shares of the Fund, which is determined as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) (generally 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time) on each day on which the NYSE is open for trading (other than a day on which there are insufficient changes in the value of the Fund’s portfolio securities to materially affect the Fund’s net asset value or a day on which no shares are tendered for redemption and no order to purchase any shares is received).

 

Security valuations: Fund investments traded on an exchange are valued at the closing price on the day of valuation on the exchange where the security is principally traded.

 

Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the last quoted bid price.

 

Debt securities are valued by independent pricing services; however, those that mature in sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market.

 

Investment company securities are valued at the net asset value of the underlying portfolio.

 

Other securities for which quotations are not readily available also are valued at fair market value as determined in good faith using guidelines established by and under the supervision of the Board of Directors, and the Fund’s Valuation Committee. These guidelines may include: the type of security; any restrictions on its resale; financial or business news of the issuer; similar or related securities that are actively trading; related corporate actions; and other significant events occurring after the close of trading in the security.

 

Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investors Bank & Trust Company (“IBT”). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at June 30, 2004, was paying an interest rate of 0.75%.

 

Repurchase agreements: The Fund is authorized to enter into repurchase agreements. The Fund, through IBT, receives delivery of the underlying securities, the value of which at the time of purchase is required to be an amount equal to at least 100% of the resale price. Repurchase agreements involve the risk that the seller will fail to repurchase the security, as agreed. In that case, the Fund will bear the risk of value fluctuations until the security can be sold and may encounter delays and incur costs in liquidating the security. In the event of bankruptcy or insolvency of the seller, delays and costs are incurred.

 

Directed brokerage: The sub-adviser, to the extent consistent with the best execution and usual commission rate policies and practices, may place security transactions of the Fund with broker/dealers with which ATSF has established a Directed Brokerage Program. A Directed Brokerage Program is any arrangement under which a broker/dealer applies a portion of the commissions received by such broker/dealer on the security transactions to the Fund. In no event will commissions paid by the Fund be used to pay expenses that would otherwise be

borne by any other funds within ATSF, or by any other party. Directed commissions for the period ended June 30, 2004, of $97 are included in net realized gains in the Statement of Operations.

 

Securities lending: The Fund may lend securities to enhance fund earnings from investing cash collateral received in making such loans to qualified borrowers (typically broker/dealers). The Fund has engaged

its custodian bank, IBT, as a lending agent to administer its securities lending program. IBT earned $18 of program net income for its services. When the Fund makes a security loan, it receives cash collateral as protection against the risk that the borrower will default on the loan, and records an asset for the cash invested collateral and a liability for the return of the collateral.

 

Loans of securities are required to be secured by collateral at least equal to 102% of the value of the securities at inception of the loan, and not less then 100% thereafter. The Fund may invest cash collateral in short-term money market instruments including: U.S. Treasury Bills, U.S. agency obligations, commercial paper, money market mutual funds, repurchase agreements and other highly rated, liquid investments. During the life of securities loans, the collateral and securities loaned remain subject to fluctuation in value. IBT marks to market securities loaned and the collateral each business day. If additional collateral is due (at least $1), IBT collects additional cash collateral from the borrowers. Although securities loaned will be fully collateralized at all times, IBT may experience delays in, or may be prevented from, recovering the collateral on behalf of the Fund. The Fund may recall a loaned security position at any time from the borrower through IBT. In the event the borrower fails to timely return a recalled security, IBT may indemnify the Fund by purchasing replacement securities for the Fund at its own expense and claiming the collateral to fund such a purchase. IBT absorbs the loss if the collateral value is not sufficient to cover the cost of the replacement securities. If replacement securities are not available, IBT will credit the equivalent cash value to the Fund.

 

While a security is on loan, the Fund does not have the right to vote that security. However, if time permits, the Fund will attempt to recall a security on loan and vote the proxy.

 

Income from securities lending is included in the Statement of Operations. The amount of collateral and value of securities on loan are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as well as in the Schedule of Investments.

 

Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the first-in, first-out basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, in the case of foreign securities, as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, including accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis commencing on the settlement date.

 

Dividend distributions: Dividend and capital gains distributions are typically declared and reinvested annually and are generally paid and reinvested on the business day following the ex-date.

NOTE  2–(continued)

 

ATFA has contractually agreed to waive its advisory fee and will reimburse the Fund to the extent that operating expenses, excluding 12b-1 fees, exceed the following stated annual limit:

 

0.85% Expense Limit

 

If total fund expenses fall below the annual expense limitations agreed to by the adviser within the succeeding three years, the Fund may be required to pay the adviser a portion or all of the waived advisory fees.

 

There are no amounts subject to recapture at June 30, 2004.

 

Distribution and service fees: The Fund adopted a distribution plan (“Distribution Plan”) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Pursuant to the Distribution Plan, ATSF entered into a Distribution Agreement with AFSG effective May 1, 1999.

 

Under the Distribution Plan and Distribution Agreement on the Initial Class shares, AFSG, on behalf of the Fund, is authorized to pay various service providers, as direct payment for expenses incurred in connection with distribution of the Fund’s shares, amounts equal to actual expenses associated with distributing the shares.

 

The Distribution Plan on the Service Class shares requires ATSF to pay distribution fees to AFSG as compensation for its activities, not as reimbursement for specific expenses. The fee on the Service Class is paid to the insurance companies for providing services and account maintenance for their policyholders who invest in the variable insurance products which invest in the Service Class shares.

 

The Fund is authorized under the 12b-1 plan to pay fees on each class up to the following limits:

 

Initial Class

   0.15%

Service Class

   0.25%

 

AFSG has determined that it will not seek payment by the Fund of the distribution expenses incurred with respect to the Initial Class shares before April 30, 2005. Prior to AFSG seeking reimbursement of future expenses, policy and contract owners will be notified in advance. The Fund will pay fees relating to Service Class shares.

 

Administrative services: The Fund has entered into an agreement with ATFS for financial and legal fund administration services, which includes such items as compliance, expenses, financial statements and other reporting, distributions, tax returns, prospectus preparation, board of directors meeting support, transfer agency and other legal matters. The Legal fees on the Statement of Operations are for fees paid to external legal counsel. The Fund paid ATFS $61 for Administration fees for the period ended June 30, 2004.

 

Deferred compensation plan: Each eligible Fund Director may elect participation in the Deferred Compensation Plan for Directors of ATSF (“the Plan”). Under the Plan, such Directors may defer payment of a percentage of their total fees earned as a Fund Director. These deferred amounts may be invested in any portfolio of Transamerica IDEX Mutual Funds, an affiliate of the Fund. At June 30, 2004, the value of invested plan amounts was $45. Invested plan amounts and the total liability for deferred compensation to the Directors under the Plan at June 30, 2004, are included in Net assets in the accompanying Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

At June 30, 2004

(all amounts in thousands)

(unaudited)

 

NOTE  1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The AEGON/Transamerica Series Fund, Inc. (“ATSF”) is a Maryland corporation registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. ATSF serves as a funding vehicle for variable life insurance, variable annuity and group annuity products. Transamerica Equity II (“the Fund”), part of ATSF, began operations on December 30, 2003.

 

On December 30, 2003, all investments held by Transamerica Occidental’s Separate Account Fund B (the “Separate Account”) with a fair value of $84,492 and a cost basis of $67,103 were transferred to the Fund. In exchange for these investments, the Separate Account received all of the outstanding shares (8,557) of the Fund. Thereafter, the Separate Account’s only investment is an investment in the Fund.

 

In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties, which provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote.

 

See the Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information for a description of the Fund’s investment objective.

 

In preparing the Fund’s financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with GAAP.

 

Pricing of shares: The Fund prices its shares on the basis of the net asset value of the Fund, which is determined as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) (generally 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time) on each day on which the NYSE is open for trading (other than a day on which there are insufficient changes in the value of the Fund’s portfolio securities to materially affect the Fund’s net asset value or a day on which no shares are tendered for redemption and no order to purchase any shares is received).

 

Security valuations: Fund investments traded on an exchange are valued at the closing price on the day of valuation on the exchange where the security is principally traded.

 

Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the last quoted bid price.

Other securities for which quotations are not readily available also are valued at fair market value as determined in good faith using guidelines established by and under the supervision of the Board of Directors and the Fund’s Valuation Committee. These guidelines may include: the type of security; any restrictions on its resale; financial or business news of the issuer; similar or related securities that are actively trading; related corporate actions; and other significant events occurring after the close of trading in the security.

 

Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investors Bank & Trust Company (“IBT”). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at June 30, 2004, was paying an interest rate of 0.75%.

 

Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the first-in, first-out basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, in the case of foreign securities, as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, including accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis commencing on the settlement date.

 

While a security is on loan, the Fund does not have the right to vote that security. However, if time permits, the Fund will attempt to recall a security on loan and vote the proxy.

 

Dividend distributions: Dividend and capital gains distributions are typically declared and reinvested annually and are generally paid and reinvested on the business day following the ex-date.

 

NOTE  2. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

 

AEGON/Transamerica Fund Advisers, Inc. (“ATFA”) is the Fund’s investment adviser. AEGON/Transamerica Fund Services, Inc. (“ATFS”) is the Fund’s administrator and transfer agent. AFSG Securities Corp. (“AFSG”) is the Fund’s distributor. AFSG is 100% owned by AUSA Holding Company (“AUSA”). ATFA is a directly owned subsidiary of Western Reserve Life Assurance Co. of Ohio (78%) (“WRL”) and AUSA (22%). ATFS is a wholly owned subsidiary of WRL. AUSA and WRL are wholly owned indirect subsidiaries of AEGON NV, a Netherlands corporation.

 

Transamerica Investment Management, LLC is both an affiliate of the Fund and a sub-adviser to the Fund.

 

Certain officers and directors of the Fund are also officers and/or directors of ATFA, ATFS, AFSG and WRL. No affiliated officer or director receives any compensation directly from the Fund.

 

Investment advisory fees: The Fund pays management fees to ATFA based on average daily net assets (“ANA”) at the following rate:

 

0.30% of ANA

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

At June 30, 2004

(all amounts in thousands)

(unaudited)

 

NOTE  2–(continued)

 

ATFA has contractually agreed to waive its advisory fee and will reimburse the Fund to the extent that operating expenses, excluding 12b-1 fees, exceed the following stated annual limit:

 

0.30% Expense Limit

 

If total fund expenses fall below the annual expense limitations agreed to by the adviser within the succeeding three years, the Fund may be required to pay the adviser a portion or all of the waived advisory fees.

 

There are no amounts subject to recapture at June 30, 2004.

 

Distribution and service fees: The Fund adopted a distribution plan (“Distribution Plan”) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Pursuant to the Distribution Plan, ATSF entered into a Distribution Agreement with AFSG effective May 1, 1999.

 

Under the Distribution Plan and Distribution Agreement, AFSG, on behalf of the Fund, is authorized to pay various service providers, as direct payment for expenses incurred in connection with distribution of the Fund’s shares, amounts equal to actual expenses associated with distributing the shares.

 

The Fund is authorized under the 12b-1 plan to pay fees up to the following limit of 0.15%.

 

AFSG has determined that it will not seek payment by the Fund of the distribution expenses incurred before April 30, 2005. Prior to AFSG seeking reimbursement of future expenses, policy and contract owners will be notified in advance.

 

Administrative services: The Fund has entered into an agreement with ATFS for financial and legal fund administration services, which includes such items as compliance, expenses, financial statements and other reporting, distributions, tax returns, prospectus preparation, board of directors meeting support, transfer agency and other legal matters. The Legal fees on the Statement of Operations are for fees paid to external legal counsel. The Fund paid ATFS $7 for Administration fees for the period ended June 30, 2004.

Deferred compensation plan: Each eligible Fund Director may elect participation in the Deferred Compensation Plan for Directors of ATSF (“the Plan”). Under the Plan, such Directors may defer payment of a percentage of their total fees earned as a Fund Director. These deferred amounts may be invested in any portfolio of Transamerica IDEX Mutual Funds, an affiliate of the Fund. At June 30, 2004, the value of invested plan amounts was $3. Invested plan amounts and the total liability for deferred compensation to the Directors under the Plan at June 30, 2004, are included in Net assets in the accompanying Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

 

NOTE  3. INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS

 

The cost of securities purchased and proceeds from securities sold (excluding short-term securities) for the period ended June 30, 2004, were as follows:

 

Purchases of securities:

      

Long-Term excluding U.S. Government

   $ 5,449

U.S. Government

    

Proceeds from maturities and sales of securities:

      

Long-Term excluding U.S. Government

     5,498

U.S. Government

    

 

NOTE  4. FEDERAL INCOME TAX MATTERS

 

The Fund has not made any provision for federal income taxes due to its policy to distribute all of its taxable income and capital gains to its shareholders and otherwise qualify as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for items including, but not limited to, wash sales and net operating losses.

 

The aggregate cost of investments and composition of unrealized appreciation (depreciation) for federal income tax purposes as of June 30, 2004, are as follows:

 

Federal Tax Cost Basis

   $   69,071  
    


Unrealized Appreciation

   $ 22,867  

Unrealized (Depreciation)

     (3,054 )
    


Net Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation)

   $ 19,813  
    


 

NOTE  5. OTHER MATTERS

 

ATSF, and certain of its affiliated entities, have received requests for information from the Staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission in connection with market timing and late trading within the funds. ATSF and the affiliated entities have voluntarily cooperated in the investigation and have been providing the information as requested.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE  1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The AEGON/Transamerica Series Fund, Inc. (“ATSF”) is a Maryland corporation registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. ATSF serves as a funding vehicle for variable life insurance, variable annuity and group annuity products. Transamerica Growth Opportunities (“the Fund”), part of ATSF, began operations as Small Company Portfolio, a part of Transamerica Variable Insurance Fund, Inc. on May 2, 2001. The Fund became part of ATSF on May 1, 2002.

 

On May 3, 2004, the Fund acquired all the net assets of PBHG Mid Cap Growth pursuant to a plan of reorganization approved by shareholders. The acquisition was accomplished by a tax-free exchange of 10,084 shares of the Fund for the 15,437 shares of PBHG Mid Cap Growth outstanding on April 30, 2004. PBHG Mid Cap Growth’s net assets at that date, $134,885 including $21,593 of unrealized appreciation, were combined with those of the Fund, resulting in combined net assets of $397,319.

 

In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties, which provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote.

 

See the Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information for a description of the Fund’s investment objective.

 

In preparing the Fund’s financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with GAAP.

 

Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers two classes of shares, an Initial Class and a Service Class. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses.

 

Pricing of shares: The Fund prices its shares on the basis of the net asset value of each class of shares of the Fund, which is determined as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) (generally 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time) on each day on which the NYSE is open for trading (other than a day on which there are insufficient changes in the value of the Fund’s portfolio securities to materially affect the Fund’s net asset value or a day on which no shares are tendered for redemption and no order to purchase any shares is received).

 

Security valuations: Fund investments traded on an exchange are valued at the closing price on the day of valuation on the exchange where the security is principally traded.

 

Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the last quoted bid price.

 

Debt securities are valued by independent pricing services; however, those that mature in sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market.

 

Investment company securities are valued at the net asset value of the underlying portfolio.

 

Other securities for which quotations are not readily available also are valued at fair market value as determined in good faith using guidelines established by and under the supervision of the Board of Directors, and the Fund’s Valuation Committee. These guidelines may include: the type of security; any restrictions on its resale; financial or business news of the issuer; similar or related securities that are actively trading; related corporate actions; and other significant events occurring after the close of trading in the security.

 

Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investors Bank & Trust Company (“IBT”). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at June 30, 2004, was paying an interest rate of 0.75%.

 

Repurchase agreements: The Fund is authorized to enter into repurchase agreements. The Fund, through IBT, receives delivery of the underlying securities, the value of which at the time of purchase is required to be an amount equal to at least 100% of the resale price. Repurchase agreements involve the risk that the seller will fail to repurchase the security, as agreed. In that case, the Fund will bear the risk of value fluctuations until the security can be sold and may encounter delays and incur costs in liquidating the security. In the event of bankruptcy or insolvency of the seller, delays and costs are incurred.

 

Securities lending: The Fund may lend securities to enhance fund earnings from investing cash collateral received in making such loans to qualified borrowers (typically broker/dealers). The Fund has engaged

its custodian bank, IBT, as a lending agent to administer its securities lending program. IBT earned $9 of program net income for its services. When the Fund makes a security loan, it receives cash collateral as

protection against the risk that the borrower will default on the loan, and records an asset for the cash invested collateral and a liability for the return of the collateral.

 

Loans of securities are required to be secured by collateral at least equal to 102% of the value of the securities at inception of the loan, and not less then 100% thereafter. The Fund may invest cash collateral in short-term money market instruments including: U.S. Treasury Bills, U.S.

agency obligations, commercial paper, money market mutual funds, repurchase agreements and other highly rated, liquid investments. During the life of securities loans, the collateral and securities loaned remain subject to fluctuation in value. IBT marks to market securities loaned and the collateral each business day. If additional collateral is due (at least $1), IBT collects additional cash collateral from the borrowers. Although securities loaned will be fully collateralized at all times, IBT may experience delays in, or may be prevented from, recovering the collateral on behalf of the Fund. The Fund may recall a loaned security position at any time from the borrower through IBT. In the event the borrower fails to timely return a recalled security, IBT may indemnify the Fund by purchasing replacement securities for the Fund at its own expense and claiming the collateral to fund such a purchase. IBT absorbs the loss if the collateral value is not sufficient to cover the cost of the replacement securities. If replacement securities are not available, IBT will credit the equivalent cash value to the Fund.

 

While a security is on loan, the Fund does not have the right to vote that security. However, if time permits, the Fund will attempt to recall a security on loan and vote the proxy.

 

Income from securities lending is included in the Statement of Operations. The amount of collateral and value of securities on loan are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as well as in the Schedule of Investments.

 

Directed brokerage: The sub-adviser, to the extent consistent with the best execution and usual commission rate policies and practices, may place security transactions of the Fund with broker/dealers with which ATSF has established a Directed Brokerage Program. A Directed Brokerage Program is any arrangement under which a broker/dealer applies a portion of the commissions received by such broker/dealer on the security transactions to the Fund. In no event will commissions paid by the Fund be used to pay expenses that would otherwise be borne by any other funds within ATSF, or by any other party. Directed commissions for the period ended June 30, 2004, of $14 are included in net realized gains in the Statement of Operations.

 

Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the first-in, first-out basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, in the case of foreign securities, as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, including accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis commencing on the settlement date.

 

Dividend distributions: Dividend and capital gains distributions are typically declared and reinvested annually and are generally paid and reinvested on the business day following the ex-date.

NOTE  2–(continued)

 

Distribution and service fees: The Fund adopted a distribution plan (“Distribution Plan”) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Pursuant to the Distribution Plan, ATSF entered into a Distribution Agreement with AFSG effective May 1, 1999.

 

Under the Distribution Plan and Distribution Agreement on the Initial Class shares, AFSG, on behalf of the Fund, is authorized to pay various service providers, as direct payment for expenses incurred in connection with distribution of the Fund’s shares, amounts equal to actual expenses associated with distributing the shares.

 

The Distribution Plan on the Service Class shares requires ATSF to pay distribution fees to AFSG as compensation for its activities, not as reimbursement for specific expenses. The fee on the Service Class is paid to the insurance companies for providing services and account maintenance for their policyholders who invest in the variable insurance products which invest in the Service Class shares.

 

The Fund is authorized under the 12b-1 plan to pay fees on each class up to the following limits:

 

Initial Class

   0.15%

Service Class

   0.25%

 

AFSG has determined that it will not seek payment by the Fund of the distribution expenses incurred with respect to the Initial Class shares before April 30, 2005. Prior to AFSG seeking reimbursement of future expenses, policy and contract owners will be notified in advance. The Fund will pay fees relating to Service Class shares.

 

Administrative services: The Fund has entered into an agreement with ATFS for financial and legal fund administration services, which includes such items as compliance, expenses, financial statements and other reporting, distributions, tax returns, prospectus preparation, board of directors meeting support, transfer agency and other legal matters. The Legal fees on the Statement of Operations are for fees paid to external legal counsel. The Fund paid ATFS $22 for Administration fees for the period ended June 30, 2004.

 

Deferred compensation plan: Each eligible Fund Director may elect participation in the Deferred Compensation Plan for Directors of ATSF (“the Plan”). Under the Plan, such Directors may defer payment of a percentage of their total fees earned as a Fund Director. These deferred amounts may be invested in any portfolio of Transamerica IDEX Mutual Funds, an affiliate of the Fund. At June 30, 2004, the value of invested plan amounts was $15. Invested plan amounts and the total liability for deferred compensation to the Directors under the Plan at June 30, 2004, are included in Net assets in the accompanying Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

NOTE  4. FEDERAL INCOME TAX MATTERS

 

The Fund has not made any provision for federal income taxes due to its policy to distribute all of its taxable income and capital gains to its shareholders and otherwise qualify as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for items including, but not limited to, wash sales, net operating losses and capital loss carryforwards.

Capital Loss
Carryforward


  

Available through

(unaudited)

 

NOTE  1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The AEGON/Transamerica Series Fund, Inc. (“ATSF”) is a Maryland corporation registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. ATSF serves as a funding vehicle for variable life insurance, variable annuity and group annuity products. Transamerica Money Market (“the Fund”), part of ATSF, began operations on October 2, 1986.

 

On May 1, 2003, the Fund acquired all the net assets of Van Kampen Money Market pursuant to a plan of reorganization approved by shareholders of Van Kampen Money Market on April 16, 2003. The acquisition was accomplished by a tax-free exchange of 409,429 shares of the Fund for the 409,429 shares of Van Kampen Money Market outstanding on April 30, 2003. Van Kampen Money Market’s net assets at that date $409,429 were combined with those of the Fund, resulting in combined net assets of $1,017,937.

 

In the normal course of business the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties, which provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote.

 

See the Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information for a description of the Fund’s investment objective.

 

In preparing the Fund’s financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with GAAP.

 

Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers two classes of shares, an Initial Class and a Service Class. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses.

 

Pricing of shares: The Fund prices its shares on the basis of the net asset value of each class of shares of the Fund, which is determined as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) (generally 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time) on each day on which the NYSE is open for trading (other than a day on which there are insufficient changes in the value of the Fund’s portfolio securities to materially affect the Fund’s net asset value or a day on which no shares are tendered for redemption and no order to purchase any shares is received).

 

Security valuations: As permitted under Rule 2a-7 of the 1940 Act, the securities held by the Fund are valued on the basis of amortized cost, which approximates market value.

 

Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investors Bank & Trust Company (“IBT”). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at June 30, 2004, was paying an interest rate of 0.75%.

 

Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the first-in, first-out basis. Interest income, including accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis commencing on the settlement date.

 

Dividend distributions: Dividend and capital gains distributions are typically declared and reinvested annually and are generally paid and reinvested on the business day following the ex-date.

 

NOTE  2. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

 

AEGON/Transamerica Fund Advisers, Inc. (“ATFA”) is the Fund’s investment adviser. AEGON/Transamerica Fund Services, Inc. (“ATFS”) is the Fund’s administrator and transfer agent. AFSG Securities Corp.

ATFA is a directly owned subsidiary of Western Reserve Life Assurance Co. of Ohio (78%) (“WRL”) and AUSA (22%). ATFS is a wholly owned subsidiary of WRL. AUSA and WRL are wholly owned indirect subsidiaries of AEGON NV, a Netherlands corporation.

 

Certain officers and directors of the Fund are also officers and/or directors of ATFA, ATFS, AFSG and WRL. No affiliated officer or director receives any compensation directly from the Fund.

NOTE  2–(continued)

 

ATFA has contractually agreed to waive its advisory fee and will reimburse the Fund to the extent that operating expenses, excluding 12b-1 fees, exceed the following stated annual limit:

 

0.57% Expense Limit

 

If total fund expenses fall below the annual expense limitations agreed to by the adviser within the succeeding three years, the Fund may be required to pay the adviser a portion or all of the waived advisory fees.

 

There are no amounts subject to recapture at June 30, 2004.

 

Distribution and service fees: The Fund adopted a distribution plan (“Distribution Plan”) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Pursuant to the Distribution Plan, ATSF entered into a Distribution Agreement with AFSG effective May 1, 1999.

 

Under the Distribution Plan and Distribution Agreement on the Initial Class shares, AFSG, on behalf of the Fund, is authorized to pay various service providers, as direct payment for expenses incurred in connection with distribution of the Fund’s shares, amounts equal to actual expenses associated with distributing the shares.

 

The Distribution Plan on the Service Class shares requires ATSF to pay distribution fees to AFSG as compensation for its activities, not as reimbursement for specific expenses. The fee on the Service Class is paid to the insurance companies for providing services and account maintenance for their policyholders who invest in the variable insurance products which invest in the Service Class shares.

 

The Fund is authorized under the 12b-1 plan to pay fees on each class up to the following limits:

 

Initial Class

   0.15%

Service Class

   0.25%

 

AFSG has determined that it will not seek payment by the Fund of the distribution expenses incurred with respect to the Initial Class shares before April 30, 2005. Prior to AFSG seeking reimbursement of future expenses, policy and contract owners will be notified in advance. The Fund will pay fees relating to Service Class shares.

Administrative services: The Fund has entered into an agreement with ATFS for financial and legal fund administration services, which includes such items as compliance, expenses, financial statements and other reporting, distributions, tax returns, prospectus preparation, board of directors meeting support, transfer agency and other legal matters. The Legal fees on the Statement of Operations are for fees paid to external legal counsel. The Fund paid ATFS $47 for Administration fees, for the period ended June 30, 2004.

 

Deferred compensation plan: Each eligible Fund Director may elect participation in the Deferred Compensation Plan for Directors of ATSF (“the Plan”). Under the Plan, such Directors may defer payment of a percentage of their total fees earned as a Fund Director. These deferred amounts may be invested in any portfolio of Transamerica IDEX Mutual Funds, an affiliate of the Fund. At June 30, 2004, the value of invested plan amounts was $27. Invested plan amounts and the total liability for deferred compensation to the Directors under the Plan at June 30, 2004, are included in Net assets in the accompanying Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

 

NOTE  3. FEDERAL INCOME TAX MATTERS

 

The Fund has not made any provision for federal income taxes due to its policy to distribute all of its taxable income and capital gains to its shareholders and otherwise qualify as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for items including, but not limited to, wash sales, net operating losses and capital loss carryforwards.

 

The aggregate cost of investments and composition of unrealized appreciation (depreciation) for federal income tax purposes as of June 30, 2004, are as follows:

 

Federal Tax Cost Basis

   $   717,769
    

Unrealized Appreciation

   $ 0

Unrealized (Depreciation)

     0
    

Net Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation)

   $ 0
    

 

NOTE  5. OTHER MATTERS

 

ATSF, and certain of its affiliated entities, have received requests for information from the Staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission in connection with market timing and late trading within the funds. ATSF and the affiliated entities have voluntarily cooperated in the investigation and have been providing the information as requested.

NOTE  1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The AEGON/Transamerica Series Fund, Inc. (“ATSF”) is a Maryland corporation registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. ATSF serves as a funding vehicle for variable life insurance, variable annuity and group annuity products. Transamerica Small/Mid Cap Value (“the Fund”), part of ATSF, began operations as part of the Endeavor Series Trust, on May 4, 1993. The Fund became part of ATSF on May 1, 2002.

 

On May 3, 2004, the Fund changed its name from Dreyfus Small Cap Value to Transamerica Small/Mid Cap Value and changed its sub-adviser from The Dreyfus Corporation to Transmerica Investment Management, LLC.

 

In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties, which provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote.

 

See the Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information for a description of the Fund’s investment objective.

 

In preparing the Fund’s financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with GAAP.

 

Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers two classes of shares, an Initial Class and a Service Class. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses.

 

Pricing of shares: The Fund prices its shares on the basis of the net asset value of each class of shares of the Fund, which is determined as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) (generally 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time) on each day on which the NYSE is open for trading (other than a day on which there are insufficient changes in the value of the Fund’s portfolio securities to materially affect the Fund’s net asset value or a day on which no shares are tendered for redemption and no order to purchase any shares is received).

Security valuations: Fund investments traded on an exchange are valued at the closing price on the day of valuation on the exchange where the security is principally traded.

 

Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the last quoted bid price.

 

Debt securities are valued by independent pricing services; however, those that mature in sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market.

 

Investment company securities are valued at the net asset value of the underlying portfolio.

 

Other securities for which quotations are not readily available also are valued at fair market value as determined in good faith using guidelines established by and under the supervision of the Board of Directors and the Fund’s Valuation Committee. These guidelines may include: the type of security; any restrictions on its resale; financial or business news of the issuer; similar or related securities that are actively trading; related corporate actions; and other significant events occurring after the close of trading in the security.

 

Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investors Bank & Trust Company (“IBT”). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at June 30, 2004, was paying an interest rate of 0.75%.

 

Repurchase agreements: The Fund is authorized to enter into repurchase agreements. The Fund, through IBT, receives delivery of the underlying securities, the value of which at the time of purchase is required to be an amount equal to at least 100% of the resale price. Repurchase agreements involve the risk that the seller will fail to repurchase the security, as agreed. In that case, the Fund will bear the risk of value fluctuations until the security can be sold and may encounter delays and incur costs in liquidating the security. In the event of bankruptcy or insolvency of the seller, delays and costs are incurred.

 

Directed brokerage: The sub-adviser, to the extent consistent with the best execution and usual commission rate policies and practices, may place security transactions of the Fund with broker/dealers with which ATSF has established a Directed Brokerage Program. A Directed Brokerage Program is any arrangement under which a broker/dealer applies a portion of the commissions received by such broker/dealer on the security transactions to the Fund. In no event will commissions paid by the Fund be used to pay expenses that would otherwise be borne by any other funds within ATSF, or by any other party. Directed commissions for the period ended June 30, 2004, of $295 are included in net realized gains in the Statement of Operations.

 

Securities lending: The Fund may lend securities to enhance fund earnings from investing cash collateral received in making such loans to qualified borrowers (typically broker/dealers). The Fund has engaged its custodian bank, IBT, as a lending agent to administer its securities lending program. IBT earned $54 of program net income for its services. When the Fund makes a security loan, it receives cash collateral as

protection against the risk that the borrower will default on the loan, and records an asset for the cash invested collateral and a liability for the return of the collateral.

 

Loans of securities are required to be secured by collateral at least equal to 102% of the value of the securities at inception of the loan, and not less then 100% thereafter. The Fund may invest cash collateral in short-term money market instruments including: U.S. Treasury Bills, U.S. agency obligations, commercial paper, money market mutual funds, repurchase agreements and other highly rated, liquid investments. During the life of securities loans, the collateral and securities loaned remain subject to fluctuation in value. IBT marks to market securities loaned and the collateral each business day. If additional collateral is due (at least $1), IBT collects additional cash collateral from the borrowers. Although securities loaned will be fully collateralized at all times, IBT may experience delays in, or may be prevented from, recovering the collateral on behalf of the Fund. The Fund may recall a loaned security position at any time from the borrower through IBT. In the event the borrower fails to timely return a recalled security, IBT may indemnify the Fund by purchasing replacement securities for the Fund at its own expense and claiming the collateral to fund such a purchase. IBT absorbs the loss if the collateral value is not sufficient to cover the cost of the replacement securities. If replacement securities are not available, IBT will credit the equivalent cash value to the Fund.

 

While a security is on loan, the Fund does not have the right to vote that security. However, if time permits, the Fund will attempt to recall a security on loan and vote the proxy.

 

Income from securities lending is included in the Statement of Operations. The amount of collateral and value of securities on loan are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as well as in the Schedule of Investments.

 

Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the first-in, first-out basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, in the case of foreign securities, as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, including accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis commencing on the settlement date.

 

Dividend distributions: Dividend and capital gains distributions are typically declared and reinvested annually and are generally paid and reinvested on the business day following the ex-date.

 

NOTE  2. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

 

AEGON/Transamerica Fund Advisers, Inc. (“ATFA”) is the Fund’s investment adviser. AEGON/Transamerica Fund Services, Inc. (“ATFS”) is the Fund’s administrator and transfer agent. AFSG Securities Corp. (“AFSG”) is the Fund’s distributor. AFSG is 100% owned by AUSA Holding Company (“AUSA”). ATFA is a directly owned subsidiary of Western Reserve Life Assurance Co. of Ohio (78%) (“WRL”) and AUSA (22%). ATFS is a wholly owned subsidiary of WRL. AUSA and WRL are wholly owned indirect subsidiaries of AEGON NV, a Netherlands corporation.

 

Transamerica Investment Management, LLC is both an affiliate of the Fund and a sub-adviser to the Fund.

 

Certain officers and directors of the Fund are also officers and/or directors of ATFA, ATFS, AFSG and WRL. No affiliated officer or director receives any compensation directly from the Fund.

 

Investment advisory fees: The Fund pays management fees to ATFA based on average daily net assets (“ANA”) at the following breakpoints:

 

From January 1, 2004 to April 30, 2004:

 

0.80% of ANA

 

From May 1, 2004 on:

 

0.80% of the first $500 million of ANA

0.775% of ANA over $500 million

 

ATFA has contractually agreed to waive its advisory fee and will reimburse the Fund to the extent that operating expenses, excluding 12b-1 fees, exceed the following stated annual limit:

 

0.89% Expense Limit

 

If total fund expenses fall below the annual expense limitations agreed to by the adviser within the succeeding three years, the Fund may be required to pay the adviser a portion or all of the waived advisory fees.

 

There are no amounts subject to recapture at June 30, 2004.

 

Distribution and service fees: The Fund adopted a distribution plan (“Distribution Plan”) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Pursuant to the Distribution Plan, ATSF entered into a Distribution Agreement with AFSG effective May 1, 1999.

 

Under the Distribution Plan and Distribution Agreement on the Initial Class shares, AFSG, on behalf of the Fund, is authorized to pay various service providers, as direct payment for expenses incurred in connection with distribution of the Fund’s shares, amounts equal to actual expenses associated with distributing the shares.

 

The Distribution Plan on the Service Class shares requires ATSF to pay distribution fees to AFSG as compensation for its activities, not as reimbursement for specific expenses. The fee on the Service Class is paid to the insurance companies for providing services and account maintenance for their policyholders who invest in the variable insurance products which invest in the Service Class shares.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE  1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The AEGON/Transamerica Series Fund, Inc. (“ATSF”) is a Maryland corporation registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. ATSF serves as a funding vehicle for variable life insurance, variable annuity and group annuity products. Transamerica U.S. Government Securities (“the Fund”), part of ATSF, began operations as part of the Endeavor Series Trust, on May 13, 1994. The Fund became part of ATSF on May 1, 2002.

 

In the normal course of business the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties, which provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote.

 

See the Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information for a description of the Fund’s investment objective.

 

In preparing the Fund’s financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with GAAP.

 

Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers two classes of shares, an Initial Class and a Service Class. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses.

 

Pricing of shares: The Fund prices its shares on the basis of the net asset value of each class of shares of the Fund, which is determined as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) (generally 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time) on each day on which the NYSE is open for trading (other than a day on which there are insufficient changes in the value of the Fund’s portfolio securities to materially affect the Fund’s net asset value or a day on which no shares are tendered for redemption and no order to purchase any shares is received).

 

Security valuations: Fund investments traded on an exchange are valued at the closing price on the day of valuation on the exchange where the security is principally traded.

Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the last quoted bid price.

 

Debt securities are valued by independent pricing services; however, those that mature in sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market.

 

Investment company securities are valued at the net asset value of the underlying portfolio.

 

Other securities for which quotations are not readily available also are valued at fair market value as determined in good faith using guidelines established by and under the supervision of the Board of Directors and the Fund’s Valuation Committee. These guidelines may include: the type of security; any restrictions on its resale; financial or business news of the issuer; similar or related securities that are actively trading; related corporate actions; and other significant events occurring after the close of trading in the security.

 

Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investors Bank & Trust Company (“IBT”). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at June 30, 2004, was paying an interest rate of 0.75%.

 

Repurchase agreements: The Fund is authorized to enter into repurchase agreements. The Fund, through IBT, receives delivery of the underlying securities, the value of which at the time of purchase is required to be an amount equal to at least 100% of the resale price. Repurchase agreements involve the risk that the seller will fail to repurchase the security, as agreed. In that case, the Fund will bear the risk of value fluctuations until the security can be sold and may encounter delays and incur costs in liquidating the security. In the event of bankruptcy or insolvency of the seller, delays and costs are incurred.

 

Securities lending: The Fund may lend securities to enhance fund earnings from investing cash collateral received in making such loans to qualified borrowers (typically broker/dealers). The Fund has engaged its custodian bank, IBT, as a lending agent to administer its securities lending program. IBT earned $20 of program net income for its services. When the Fund makes a security loan, it receives cash collateral as protection against the risk that the borrower will default on the loan, and records an asset for the cash invested collateral and a liability for the return of the collateral.

 

Loans of securities are required to be secured by collateral at least equal to 102% of the value of the securities at inception of the loan, and not less then 100% thereafter. The Fund may invest cash collateral in short-term money market instruments including: U.S. Treasury Bills, U.S. agency obligations, commercial paper, money market mutual funds, repurchase agreements and other highly rated, liquid investments. During the life of securities loans, the collateral and securities loaned remain subject to fluctuation in value. IBT marks to market securities loaned and the collateral each business day. If additional collateral is due (at least $1), IBT collects additional cash collateral from the borrowers. Although securities loaned will be fully collateralized at all

times, IBT may experience delays in, or may be prevented from, recovering the collateral on behalf of the Fund. The Fund may recall a loaned security position at any time from the borrower through IBT. In the event the borrower fails to timely return a recalled security, IBT may indemnify the Fund by purchasing replacement securities for the Fund at its own expense and claiming the collateral to fund such a purchase. IBT absorbs the loss if the collateral value is not sufficient to cover the cost of the replacement securities. If replacement securities are not available, IBT will credit the equivalent cash value to the Fund.

 

While a security is on loan, the Fund does not have the right to vote that security. However, if time permits, the Fund will attempt to recall a security on loan and vote the proxy.

 

Income from securities lending is included in the Statement of Operations. The amount of collateral and value of securities on loan are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as well as in the Schedule of Investments.

 

Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the first-in, first-out basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, in the case of foreign securities, as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, including accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis commencing on the settlement date.

 

Dividend distributions: Dividend and capital gains distributions are typically declared and reinvested annually and are generally paid and reinvested on the business day following the ex-date.

AUSA and WRL are wholly owned indirect subsidiaries of AEGON NV, a Netherlands corporation.

 

Certain officers and directors of the Fund are also officers and/or directors of ATFA, ATFS, AFSG and WRL. No affiliated officer or director receives any compensation directly from the Fund.

 

Transamerica Investment Management, LLC is both an affiliate of the Fund and a sub-adviser to the Fund.

Investment advisory fees: The Fund pays management fees to ATFA based on average daily net assets (“ANA”) at the following rate:

 

0.65% of ANA

 

ATFA has contractually agreed to waive its advisory fee and will reimburse the Fund to the extent that operating expenses, excluding 12b-1 fees, exceed the following stated annual limit:

 

0.73% Expense Limit

 

If total fund expenses fall below the annual expense limitations agreed to by the adviser within the succeeding three years, the Fund may be required to pay the adviser a portion or all of the waived advisory fees.

 

There are no amounts subject to recapture at June 30, 2004.

 

Distribution and service fees: The Fund adopted a distribution plan (“Distribution Plan”) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Pursuant to the Distribution Plan, ATSF entered into a Distribution Agreement with AFSG effective May 1, 1999.

 

Under the Distribution Plan and Distribution Agreement on the Initial Class shares, AFSG, on behalf of the Fund, is authorized to pay various service providers, as direct payment for expenses incurred in connection with distribution of the Fund’s shares, amounts equal to actual expenses associated with distributing the shares.

 

The Distribution Plan on the Service Class shares requires ATSF to pay distribution fees to AFSG as compensation for its activities, not as reimbursement for specific expenses. The fee on the Service Class is paid to the insurance companies for providing services and account maintenance for their policyholders who invest in the variable insurance products which invest in the Service Class shares.

Initial Class

  0.15%

Service Class

AFSG has determined that it will not seek payment by the Fund of the distribution expenses incurred with respect to the Initial Class shares before April 30, 2005. Prior to AFSG seeking reimbursement of future expenses, policy and contract owners will be notified in advance. The Fund will pay fees relating to Service Class shares.

 

Administrative services: The Fund has entered into an agreement with ATFS for financial and legal fund administration services, which includes such items as compliance, expenses, financial statements and other reporting, distributions, tax returns, prospectus preparation, board of directors meeting support, transfer agency and other legal matters.

NOTE  1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The AEGON/Transamerica Series Fund, Inc. (“ATSF”) is a Maryland corporation registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. ATSF serves as a funding vehicle for variable life insurance, variable annuity and group annuity products. Transamerica Value Balanced (“the Fund”), part of ATSF, began operations on January 3, 1995.

 

On May 3, 2004, the Fund acquired all the net assets of LKCM Strategic Total Return pursuant to a plan of reorganization approved by shareholders of LKCM Strategic Total Return. The acquisition was accomplished by a tax-free exchange of 25,318 shares of the Fund for the 21,557 shares of LKCM Strategic Total Return outstanding on April 30, 2004. LKCM Strategic Total Return’s net assets at that date ($313,420), including $(45,289) of unrealized appreciation, were combined with those of the Fund, resulting in combined net assets of $553,458.

 

In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties, which provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote.

 

See the Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information for a description of the Fund’s investment objective.

 

In preparing the Fund’s financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with GAAP.

 

Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers two classes of shares, an Initial Class and a Service Class. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses.

 

Pricing of shares: The Fund prices its shares on the basis of the net asset value of each class of shares of the Fund, which is determined as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) (generally 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time) on each day on which the NYSE is open for trading (other than a day on which there are insufficient changes in the value of the Fund’s portfolio securities to materially affect the Fund’s net asset value or a day on which no shares are tendered for redemption and no order to purchase any shares is received).

Security valuations: Fund investments traded on an exchange are valued at the closing price on the day of valuation on the exchange where the security is principally traded.

 

Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the last quoted bid price.

 

Debt securities are valued by independent pricing services; however, those that mature in sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market.

 

Investment company securities are valued at the net asset value of the underlying portfolio.

 

Option contracts are valued at the average of the bid and ask (“mean quote”) established each day at the close of the board of trade or exchange in which they are traded.

 

Other securities for which quotations are not readily available also are valued at fair market value as determined in good faith using guidelines established by and under the supervision of the Board of Directors, and the Fund’s Valuation Committee. These guidelines may include: the type of security; any restrictions on its resale; financial or business news of the issuer; similar or related securities that are actively trading; related corporate actions; and other significant events occurring after the close of trading in the security.

 

Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investors Bank & Trust Company (“IBT”). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at June 30, 2004, was paying an interest rate of 0.75%.

 

Repurchase agreements: The Fund is authorized to enter into repurchase agreements. The Fund, through IBT, receives delivery of the underlying securities, the value of which at the time of purchase is required to be an amount equal to at least 100% of the resale price. Repurchase agreements involve the risk that the seller will fail to repurchase the security, as agreed. In that case, the Fund will bear the risk of value fluctuations until the security can be sold and may encounter delays and incur costs in liquidating the security. In the event of bankruptcy or insolvency of the seller, delays and costs are incurred.

 

Directed brokerage: The sub-adviser, to the extent consistent with the best execution and usual commission rate policies and practices, may place security transactions of the Fund with broker/dealers with which ATSF has established a Directed Brokerage Program. A Directed Brokerage Program is any arrangement under which a broker/dealer applies a portion of the commissions received by such broker/dealer on the security transactions to the Fund. In no event will commissions paid by the Fund be used to pay expenses that would otherwise be borne by any other funds within ATSF, or by any other party. Directed commissions for the period ended June 30, 2004, of $30 are included in net realized gains in the Statement of Operations.

 

Securities lending: The Fund may lend securities to enhance fund earnings from investing cash collateral received in making such loans to

qualified borrowers (typically broker/dealers). The Fund has engaged its custodian bank, IBT, as a lending agent to administer its securities lending program. IBT earned $13 of program net income for its services. When the Fund makes a security loan, it receives cash collateral as protection against the risk that the borrower will default on the loan, and records an asset for the cash invested collateral and a liability for the return of the collateral.

 

Loans of securities are required to be secured by collateral at least equal to 102% of the value of the securities at inception of the loan, and not less then 100% thereafter. The Fund may invest cash collateral in short-term money market instruments including: U.S. Treasury Bills, U.S. agency obligations, commercial paper, money market mutual funds, repurchase agreements and other highly rated, liquid investments. During the life of securities loans, the collateral and securities loaned remain subject to fluctuation in value. IBT marks to market securities loaned and the collateral each business day. If additional collateral is due (at least $1), IBT collects additional cash collateral from the borrowers. Although securities loaned will be fully collateralized at all times, IBT may experience delays in, or may be prevented from, recovering the collateral on behalf of the Fund. The Fund may recall a loaned security position at any time from the borrower through IBT. In the event the borrower fails to timely return a recalled security, IBT may indemnify the Fund by purchasing replacement securities for the Fund at its own expense and claiming the collateral to fund such a purchase. IBT absorbs the loss if the collateral value is not sufficient to cover the cost of the replacement securities. If replacement securities are not available, IBT will credit the equivalent cash value to the Fund.

 

While a security is on loan, the Fund does not have the right to vote that security. However, if time permits, the Fund will attempt to recall a security on loan and vote the proxy.

 

Income from securities lending is included in the Statement of Operations. The amount of collateral and value of securities on loan are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as well as in the Schedule of Investments.

 

Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the first-in, first-out basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, in the case of foreign securities, as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, including accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis commencing on the settlement date.

 

Option contracts: The Fund may enter into options contracts to manage exposure to market fluctuations. Options are valued at the average of the bid and ask (“Mean Quote”) established each day at the close of the board of trade or exchange on which they are traded. The primary risks associated with options are imperfect correlation between the change in value of the securities held and the prices of the options contracts; the possibility of an illiquid market and inability of the counterparty to meet the contracts terms. When the Fund writes a covered call or put option, an amount equal to the premium received by the Fund is included in the Fund’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an asset and as an equivalent liability. The amount is subsequently marked-to-market to reflect the current value of the option written.

 

The underlying face amounts of open contracts at June 30, 2004, are listed in the Schedule of Investments.

 

Transactions in written call and put options were as follows:

NOTE  2–(continued)

 

The actual advisory fee accrued for the six-month period ended June 30, 2004, per average net assets is 0.75%.

 

ATFA has contractually agreed to waive its advisory fee and will reimburse the Fund to the extent that operating expenses, excluding 12b-1 fees, exceed the following stated annual limit:

 

1.00% Expense Limit

 

If total fund expenses fall below the annual expense limitations agreed to by the adviser within the succeeding three years, the Fund may be required to pay the adviser a portion or all of the waived advisory fees.

 

There are no amounts subject to recapture at June 30, 2004.

 

Distribution and service fees: The Fund adopted a distribution plan (“Distribution Plan”) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Pursuant to the Distribution Plan, ATSF entered into a Distribution Agreement with AFSG effective May 1, 1999.

 

Under the Distribution Plan and Distribution Agreement on the Initial Class shares, AFSG, on behalf of the Fund, is authorized to pay various service providers, as direct payment for expenses incurred in connection with distribution of the Fund’s shares, amounts equal to actual expenses associated with distributing the shares.

 

The Distribution Plan on the Service Class shares requires ATSF to pay distribution fees to AFSG as compensation for its activities, not as reimbursement for specific expenses. The fee on the Service Class is paid to the insurance companies for providing services and account maintenance for their policyholders who invest in the variable insurance products which invest in the Service Class shares.

 

The Fund is authorized under the 12b-1 plan to pay fees on each class up to the following limits:

 

Initial Class

   0.15%

Service Class

   0.25%

 

AFSG has determined that it will not seek payment by the Fund of the distribution expenses incurred with respect to the Initial Class shares before April 30, 2005. Prior to AFSG seeking reimbursement of future expenses, policy and contract owners will be notified in advance. The Fund will pay fees relating to Service Class shares.

 

Administrative services: The Fund has entered into an agreement with ATFS for financial and legal fund administration services, which includes such items as compliance, expenses, financial statements and other reporting, distributions, tax returns, prospectus preparation, board of directors meeting support, transfer agency and other legal matters. The Legal fees on the Statement of Operations are for fees paid to external legal counsel. The Fund paid ATFS $25, for Administration fees, for the period ended June 30, 2004.

 

Deferred compensation plan: Each eligible Fund Director may elect participation in the Deferred Compensation Plan for Directors of ATSF (“the Plan”). Under the Plan, such Directors may defer payment of a percentage of their total fees earned as a Fund Director. These deferred amounts may be invested in any portfolio of Transamerica IDEX Mutual Funds, an affiliate of the Fund. At June 30, 2004, the value of invested plan amounts was $21. Invested plan amounts and the total liability for deferred compensation to the Directors under the Plan at June 30, 2004, are included in Net assets in the accompanying Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

 

NOTE  3. INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS

NOTE  4. FEDERAL INCOME TAX MATTERS

 

The Fund has not made any provision for federal income taxes due to its policy to distribute all of its taxable income and capital gains to its shareholders and otherwise qualify as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for items including, but not limited to, wash sales and capital loss carryforwards.

NOTE  1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The AEGON/Transamerica Series Fund, Inc. (“ATSF”) is a Maryland corporation registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. ATSF serves as a funding vehicle for variable life insurance, variable annuity and group annuity products. T. Rowe Price Equity Income (“the Fund”), part of ATSF, began operations as part of the Endeavor Series Trust, on January 3, 1995. The Fund became part of ATSF on May 1, 2002.

 

On May 1, 2003, the Fund acquired all the net assets of T. Rowe Price Dividend Growth pursuant to a plan of reorganization approved by shareholders of T. Rowe Price Dividend Growth on April 16, 2003. The acquisition was accomplished by a tax-free exchange of 3,492 shares of the Fund for the 6,852 shares of T. Rowe Price Dividend Growth outstanding on April 30, 2003. T. Rowe Price Dividend Growth’s net assets at that date ($54,542, including $7,191 of unrealized depreciation) were combined with those of the Fund, resulting in combined net assets of $747,561.

 

In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties, which provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote.

 

See the Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information for a description of the Fund’s investment objective.

 

In preparing the Fund’s financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with GAAP.

 

Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers two classes of shares, an Initial Class and a Service Class. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses.

 

Pricing of shares: The Fund prices its shares on the basis of the net asset value of each class of shares of the Fund, which is determined as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) (generally 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time) on each day on which the NYSE is open for trading (other than a day on which there are insufficient changes in the value of the Fund’s portfolio securities to materially affect the Fund’s net asset value or a day on which no shares are tendered for redemption and no order to purchase any shares is received).

 

Security valuations: Fund investments traded on an exchange are valued at the closing price on the day of valuation on the exchange where the security is principally traded.

 

Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the last quoted bid price.

 

Debt securities are valued by independent pricing services; however, those that mature in sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market.

 

Investment company securities are valued at the net asset value of the underlying portfolio.

 

Foreign securities generally are valued based on quotations from the primary market in which they are traded and are translated from the local currency into U.S. dollars using closing exchange rates. Many foreign securities markets are open for trading at times when the U.S. markets are closed for trading, and many foreign securities markets close for trading before the close of the NYSE. The value of foreign securities may be affected significantly on a day that the NYSE is closed and an investor is unable to purchase or redeem shares. If a significant market event impacting the value of a portfolio security (e.g., natural disaster, company announcement, market volatility) occurs subsequent to the close of trading in the security, but prior to the calculation of the Fund’s net asset value per share, market quotations for that security may be determined to be unreliable and, accordingly, not “readily available.” If market quotations are not readily available, and the impact of such a significant market event materially affects the net asset value per share of the Fund, an affected portfolio security will be valued at fair market value as determined in good faith using guidelines adopted by the Board of Directors of the Fund, under the supervision of the Fund’s Valuation Committee. Factors that may be considered to value foreign securities at fair market value may include, among others: the value of other securities traded on other markets, foreign currency exchange activity and the trading of financial products tied to foreign securities.

 

Other securities for which quotations are not readily available also are valued at fair market value as determined in good faith using guidelines established by and under the supervision of the Board of Directors, and the Fund’s Valuation Committee. These guidelines may include: the type of security; any restrictions on its resale; financial or business news of the issuer; similar or related securities that are actively trading; related corporate actions; and other significant events occurring after the close of trading in the security.

 

Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investors Bank & Trust Company (“IBT”). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at June 30, 2004, was paying an interest rate of 0.75%.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

At June 30, 2004

(all amounts in thousands)

(unaudited)

 

NOTE  1–(continued)

 

Repurchase agreements: The Fund is authorized to enter into repurchase agreements. The Fund, through IBT, receives delivery of the underlying securities, the value of which at the time of purchase is required to be an amount equal to at least 100% of the resale price. Repurchase agreements involve the risk that the seller will fail to repurchase the security, as agreed. In that case, the Fund will bear the risk of value fluctuations until the security can be sold and may encounter delays and incur costs in liquidating the security. In the event of bankruptcy or insolvency of the seller, delays and costs are incurred.

 

Directed brokerage: The sub-adviser, to the extent consistent with the best execution and usual commission rate policies and practices, may place security transactions of the Fund with broker/dealers with which ATSF has established a Directed Brokerage Program. A Directed Brokerage Program is any arrangement under which a broker/dealer applies a portion of the commissions received by such broker/dealer on the security transactions to the Fund. In no event will commissions paid by the Fund be used to pay expenses that would otherwise be borne by any other funds within ATSF, or by any other party. Directed commissions for the period ended June 30, 2004, of $28 are included in net realized gains in the Statement of Operations.

 

Securities lending: The Fund may lend securities to enhance fund earnings from investing cash collateral received in making such loans to qualified borrowers (typically broker/dealers). The Fund has engaged its custodian bank, IBT, as a lending agent to administer its securities lending program. IBT earned $31 of program net income for its services. When the Fund makes a security loan, it receives cash collateral as protection against the risk that the borrower will default on the loan, and records an asset for the cash invested collateral and a liability for the return of the collateral.

 

Loans of securities are required to be secured by collateral at least equal to 102% of the value of the securities at inception of the loan, and not less then 100% thereafter. The Fund may invest cash collateral in short-term money market instruments including: U.S. Treasury Bills, U.S. agency obligations, commercial paper, money market mutual funds, repurchase agreements and other highly rated, liquid investments. During the life of securities loans, the collateral and securities loaned remain subject to fluctuation in value. IBT marks to market securities loaned and the collateral each business day. If additional collateral is due (at least $1), IBT collects additional cash collateral from the borrowers. Although securities loaned will be fully collateralized at all times, IBT may experience delays in, or may be prevented from, recovering the collateral on behalf of the Fund. The Fund may recall a loaned security position at any time from the borrower through IBT. In the event the borrower fails to timely return a recalled security, IBT may indemnify the Fund by purchasing replacement securities for the Fund at its own expense and claiming the collateral to fund such a purchase. IBT absorbs the loss if the collateral value is not sufficient to cover the cost of the replacement securities. If replacement securities are not available, IBT will credit the equivalent cash value to the Fund.

 

While a security is on loan, the Fund does not have the right to vote that security. However, if time permits, the Fund will attempt to recall a security on loan and vote the proxy.

 

Income from securities lending is included in the Statement of Operations. The amount of collateral and value of securities on loan are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as well as in the Schedule of Investments.

 

Real Estate Investment Trusts (“REITs”): There are certain additional risks involved in investing in REITs. These include, but are not limited to, economic conditions, changes in zoning laws, real estate values, property taxes and interest rates.

 

Dividend income is recorded at management’s estimate of the income included in distributions from the REIT investments. Distributions received in excess of this estimated amount are recorded as a reduction of the cost of investments. The actual amounts of income, return of capital, and capital gains are only determined by each REIT after the fiscal year-end, and may differ from the estimated amounts.

 

Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the first-in, first-out basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, in the case of foreign securities, as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, including accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis commencing on the settlement date.

 

Foreign currency denominated investments: The accounting records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the closing exchange rate each day. The cost of foreign securities is translated at the exchange rate in effect when the investment was acquired. The Fund combines fluctuations from currency exchange rates and fluctuations in value when computing net realized and unrealized gains or losses from investments.

 

Net foreign currency gains and losses resulting from changes in exchange rates include: 1) foreign currency fluctuations between trade date and settlement date of investment security transactions; 2) gains and losses on forward foreign currency contracts; and 3) the difference between the receivable amounts of interest and dividends recorded in the accounting records in U.S. dollars and the amounts actually received.

 

Foreign currency denominated assets may involve risks not typically associated with domestic transactions, including unanticipated movements in exchange currency rates, the degree of government supervision and regulation of security markets, and the possibility of political or economic instability.

 

Forward foreign currency contracts: The Fund may enter into forward foreign currency contracts to hedge against exchange rate risk arising

from investments in securities denominated in foreign currencies. Contracts are valued at the contractual forward rate and are marked to market daily, with the change in value recorded as an unrealized gain or loss. When the contracts are closed a realized gain or loss is incurred. Risks may arise from changes in market value of the underlying currencies and from the possible inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts.

 

Dividend distributions: Dividend and capital gains distributions are typically declared and reinvested annually and are generally paid and reinvested on the business day following the ex-date.

Investment advisory fees: The Fund pays management fees to ATFA based on average daily net assets (“ANA”) at the following rate:

 

0.75% of ANA

ATFA has contractually agreed to waive its advisory fee and will reimburse the Fund to the extent that operating expenses, excluding 12b-1 fees, exceed the following stated annual limit:

 

0.88% Expense Limit

 

If total fund expenses fall below the annual expense limitations agreed to by the adviser within the succeeding three years, the Fund may be required to pay the adviser a portion or all of the waived advisory fees.

 

There are no amounts subject to recapture at June 30, 2004.

 

The sub-adviser, T. Rowe Price, has agreed to a pricing discount based on the aggregate assets that they manage in ATSF and Transamerica IDEX Mutual Funds. The amount of the discount received by the Fund at June 30, 2004 was $44.

 

Distribution and service fees: The Fund adopted a distribution plan (“Distribution Plan”) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Pursuant to the Distribution Plan, ATSF entered into a Distribution Agreement with AFSG effective May 1, 1999.

 

Under the Distribution Plan and Distribution Agreement on the Initial Class shares, AFSG, on behalf of the Fund, is authorized to pay various service providers, as direct payment for expenses incurred in connection with distribution of the Fund’s shares, amounts equal to actual expenses associated with distributing the shares.

 

The Distribution Plan on the Service Class shares requires ATSF to pay distribution fees to AFSG as compensation for its activities, not as reimbursement for specific expenses. The fee on the Service Class is paid to the insurance companies for providing services and account maintenance for their policyholders who invest in the variable insurance products which invest in the Service Class shares.

 

The Fund is authorized under the 12b-1 plan to pay fees on each class up to the following limits:

 

Initial Class

   0.15%

Service Class

   0.25%

 

AFSG has determined that it will not seek payment by the Fund of the distribution expenses incurred with respect to the Initial Class shares before April 30, 2005. Prior to AFSG seeking reimbursement of future expenses, policy and contract owners will be notified in advance. The Fund will pay fees relating to Service Class shares.

 

Administrative services: The Fund has entered into an agreement with ATFS for financial and legal fund administration services, which includes such items as compliance, expenses, financial statements and other reporting, distributions, tax returns, prospectus preparation, board of directors meeting support, transfer agency and other legal matters. The Legal fees on the Statement of Operations are for fees paid to external legal counsel. The Fund paid ATFS $81 for Administration fees for the period ended June 30, 2004.

NOTE  4. FEDERAL INCOME TAX MATTERS

 

The Fund has not made any provision for federal income taxes due to its policy to distribute all of its taxable income and capital gains to its shareholders and otherwise qualify as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for items including, but not limited to, wash sales, foreign currency transactions and capital loss carryforwards.

 

The capital loss carryforwards are available to offset future realized capital gains through the periods listed:

NOTE  1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The AEGON/Transamerica Series Fund, Inc. (“ATSF”) is a Maryland corporation registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. ATSF serves as a funding vehicle for variable life insurance, variable annuity and group annuity products. T. Rowe Price Growth Stock (“the Fund”), part of ATSF, began operations as part of Endeavor Series Trust on January 3, 1995. The Fund became part of ATSF on May 1, 2002.

 

In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties, which provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote.

 

See the Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information for a description of the Fund’s investment objective.

 

In preparing the Fund’s financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with GAAP.

 

Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers two classes of shares, an Initial Class and a Service Class. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses.

 

Pricing of shares: The Fund prices its shares on the basis of the net asset value of each class of shares of the Fund, which is determined as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) (generally 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time) on each day on which the NYSE is open for trading (other than a day on which there are insufficient changes in the value of the Fund’s portfolio securities to materially affect the Fund’s net asset value or a day on which no shares are tendered for redemption and no order to purchase any shares is received).

 

Security valuations: Fund investments traded on an exchange are valued at the closing price on the day of valuation on the exchange where the security is principally traded.

 

Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the last quoted bid price.

Debt securities are valued by independent pricing services; however, those that mature in sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market.

 

Investment company securities are valued at the net asset value of the underlying portfolio.

 

Foreign securities generally are valued based on quotations from the primary market in which they are traded and are translated from the local currency into U.S. dollars using closing exchange rates. Many foreign securities markets are open for trading at times when the U.S. markets are closed for trading, and many foreign securities markets close for trading before the close of the NYSE. The value of foreign securities may be affected significantly on a day that the NYSE is closed and an investor is unable to purchase or redeem shares. If a significant market event impacting the value of a portfolio security (e.g., natural disaster, company announcement, market volatility) occurs subsequent to the close of trading in the security, but prior to the calculation of the Fund’s net asset value per share, market quotations for that security may be determined to be unreliable and, accordingly, not “readily available.” If market quotations are not readily available, and the impact of such a significant market event materially affects the net asset value per share of the Fund, an affected portfolio security will be valued at fair market value as determined in good faith using guidelines adopted by the Board of Directors of the Fund, under the supervision of the Fund’s Valuation Committee. Factors that may be considered to value foreign securities at fair market value may include, among others: the value of other securities traded on other markets, foreign currency exchange activity and the trading of financial products tied to foreign securities.

 

Other securities for which quotations are not readily available also are valued at fair market value as determined in good faith using guidelines established by and under the supervision of the Board of Directors, and the Fund’s Valuation Committee. These guidelines may include: the type of security; any restrictions on its resale; financial or business news of the issuer; similar or related securities that are actively trading; related corporate actions; and other significant events occurring after the close of trading in the security.

 

Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investors Bank & Trust Company (“IBT”). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at June 30, 2004, was paying an interest rate of 0.75%.

 

Repurchase agreements: The Fund is authorized to enter into repurchase agreements. The Fund, through IBT, receives delivery of the underlying securities, the value of which at the time of purchase is required to be an amount equal to at least 100% of the resale price. Repurchase agreements involve the risk that the seller will fail to repurchase the security, as agreed. In that case, the Fund will bear the risk of value fluctuations until the security can be sold and may encounter delays and incur costs in liquidating the security. In the event of bankruptcy or insolvency of the seller, delays and costs are incurred.

NOTE  1–(continued)

 

Directed brokerage: The sub-adviser, to the extent consistent with the best execution and usual commission rate policies and practices, may place security transactions of the Fund with broker/dealers with which ATSF has established a Directed Brokerage Program. A Directed Brokerage Program is any arrangement under which a broker/dealer applies a portion of the commissions received by such broker/dealer on the security transactions to the Fund. In no event will commissions paid by the Fund be used to pay expenses that would otherwise be borne by any other funds within ATSF, or by any other party. Directed commissions for the period ended June 30, 2004, of $13 are included in net realized gains in the Statement of Operations.

 

Securities lending: The Fund may lend securities to enhance fund earnings from investing cash collateral received in making such loans to qualified borrowers (typically broker/dealers). The Fund has engaged its custodian bank, IBT, as a lending agent to administer its securities lending program. IBT earned $7 of program net income for its services. When the Fund makes a security loan, it receives cash collateral as protection against the risk that the borrower will default on the loan, and records an asset for the cash invested collateral and a liability for the return of the collateral.

 

Loans of securities are required to be secured by collateral at least equal to 102% of the value of the securities at inception of the loan, and not less then 100% thereafter. The Fund may invest cash collateral in short-term money market instruments including: U.S. Treasury Bills, U.S. agency obligations, commercial paper, money market mutual funds, repurchase agreements and other highly rated, liquid investments. During the life of securities loans, the collateral and securities loaned remain subject to fluctuation in value. IBT marks to market securities loaned and the collateral each business day. If additional collateral is due (at least $1), IBT collects additional cash collateral from the borrowers. Although securities loaned will be fully collateralized at all times, IBT may experience delays in, or may be prevented from, recovering the collateral on behalf of the Fund. The Fund may recall a loaned security position at any time from the borrower through IBT. In the event the borrower fails to timely return a recalled security, IBT may indemnify the Fund by purchasing replacement securities for the Fund at its own expense and claiming the collateral to fund such a purchase. IBT absorbs the loss if the collateral value is not sufficient to cover the cost of the replacement securities. If replacement securities are not available, IBT will credit the equivalent cash value to the Fund.

 

While a security is on loan, the Fund does not have the right to vote that security. However, if time permits, the Fund will attempt to recall a security on loan and vote the proxy.

 

Income from securities lending is included in the Statement of Operations. The amount of collateral and value of securities on loan are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as well as in the Schedule of Investments.

Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the first-in, first-out basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, in the case of foreign securities, as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, including accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis commencing on the settlement date.

 

Foreign currency denominated investments: The accounting records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the closing exchange rate each day. The cost of foreign securities is translated at the exchange rate in effect when the investment was acquired. The Fund combines fluctuations from currency exchange rates and fluctuations in value when computing net realized and unrealized gains or losses from investments.

 

Net foreign currency gains and losses resulting from changes in exchange rates include: 1) foreign currency fluctuations between trade date and settlement date of investment security transactions; 2) gains and losses on forward foreign currency contracts; and 3) the difference between the receivable amounts of interest and dividends recorded in the accounting records in U.S. dollars and the amounts actually received.

 

Foreign currency denominated assets may involve risks not typically associated with domestic transactions, including unanticipated movements in exchange currency rates, the degree of government supervision and regulation of security markets, and the possibility of political or economic instability.

 

Forward foreign currency contracts: The Fund may enter into forward foreign currency contracts to hedge against exchange rate risk arising from investments in securities denominated in foreign currencies. Contracts are valued at the contractual forward rate and are marked to market daily, with the change in value recorded as an unrealized gain or loss. When the contracts are closed a realized gain or loss is incurred. Risks may arise from changes in market value of the underlying currencies and from the possible inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts.

NOTE  2–(continued)

 

Certain officers and directors of the Fund are also officers and/or directors of ATFA, ATFS, AFSG and WRL. No affiliated officer or director receives any compensation directly from the Fund.

 

Investment advisory fees: The Fund pays management fees to ATFA based on average daily net assets (“ANA”) at the following rate:

 

0.80% of ANA

 

ATFA has contractually agreed to waive its advisory fee and will reimburse the Fund to the extent that operating expenses, excluding 12b-1 fees, exceed the following stated annual limit:

 

0.89% Expense Limit

 

If total fund expenses fall below the annual expense limitations agreed to by the adviser within the succeeding three years, the Fund may be required to pay the adviser a portion or all of the waived advisory fees.

 

There are no amounts subject to recapture at June 30, 2004.

 

The sub-adviser, T. Rowe Price, has agreed to a pricing discount based on the aggregate assets that they manage in ATSF and Transamerica IDEX Mutual Funds. The amount of the discount received by the Fund at June 30, 2004 was $13.

 

Distribution and service fees: The Fund adopted a distribution plan (“Distribution Plan”) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Pursuant to the Distribution Plan, ATSF entered into a Distribution Agreement with AFSG effective May 1, 1999.

 

Under the Distribution Plan and Distribution Agreement on the Initial Class shares, AFSG, on behalf of the Fund, is authorized to pay various service providers, as direct payment for expenses incurred in connection with distribution of the Fund’s shares, amounts equal to actual expenses associated with distributing the shares.

 

The Distribution Plan on the Service Class shares requires ATSF to pay distribution fees to AFSG as compensation for its activities, not as reimbursement for specific expenses. The fee on the Service Class is paid to the insurance companies for providing services and account maintenance for their policyholders who invest in the variable insurance products which invest in the Service Class shares.

 

The Fund is authorized under the 12b-1 plan to pay fees on each class up to the following limits:

 

Initial Class

   0.15%

Service Class

   0.25%

AFSG has determined that it will not seek payment by the Fund of the distribution expenses incurred with respect to the Initial Class shares before April 30, 2005. Prior to AFSG seeking reimbursement of future expenses, policy and contract owners will be notified in advance. The Fund will pay fees relating to Service Class shares.

 

Administrative services: The Fund has entered into an agreement with ATFS for financial and legal fund administration services, which includes such items as compliance, expenses, financial statements and other reporting, distributions, tax returns, prospectus preparation, board of directors meeting support, transfer agency and other legal matters. The Legal fees on the Statement of Operations are for fees paid to external legal counsel. The Fund paid ATFS $24 for Administration fees for the period ended June 30, 2004.

 

Deferred compensation plan: Each eligible Fund Director may elect participation in the Deferred Compensation Plan for Directors of ATSF (“the Plan”). Under the Plan, such Directors may defer payment of a percentage of their total fees earned as a Fund Director. These deferred amounts may be invested in any portfolio of Transamerica IDEX Mutual Funds, an affiliate of the Fund. At June 30, 2004, the value of invested plan amounts was $12. Invested plan amounts and the total liability for deferred compensation to the Directors under the Plan at June 30, 2004, are included in Net assets in the accompanying Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

NOTE  4. FEDERAL INCOME TAX MATTERS

 

The Fund has not made any provision for federal income taxes due to its policy to distribute all of its taxable income and capital gains to its shareholders and otherwise qualify as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for items including, but not limited to, wash sales, foreign currency transactions, and capital loss carryforwards.

 

The capital loss carryforwards are available to offset future realized capital gains through the periods listed:

NOTE  1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The AEGON/Transamerica Series Fund, Inc. (“ATSF”) is a Maryland corporation registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. ATSF serves as a funding vehicle for variable life insurance, variable annuity and group annuity products. T. Rowe Price Small Cap (“the Fund”), part of ATSF, began operations on May 3, 1999.

 

In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties, which provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote.

 

See the Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information for a description of the Fund’s investment objective.

 

In preparing the Fund’s financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with GAAP.

 

Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers two classes of shares, an Initial Class and a Service Class. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses.

 

Pricing of shares: The Fund prices its shares on the basis of the net asset value of each class of shares of the Fund, which is determined as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) (generally 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time) on each day on which the NYSE is open for trading (other than a day on which there are insufficient changes in the value of the Fund’s portfolio securities to materially affect the Fund’s net asset value or a day on which no shares are tendered for redemption and no order to purchase any shares is received).

 

Security valuations: Fund investments traded on an exchange are valued at the closing price on the day of valuation on the exchange where the security is principally traded. With respect to securities traded on the NASDAQ INMS, such closing price may be the last reported sales price or the NASDAQ official closing price.

Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the last quoted bid price.

 

Debt securities are valued by independent pricing services; however, those that mature in sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market.

 

Investment company securities are valued at the net asset value of the underlying portfolio.

 

Other securities for which quotations are not readily available also are valued at fair market value as determined in good faith using guidelines established by and under the supervision of the Board of Directors, and the Fund’s Valuation Committee. These guidelines may include: the type of security; any restrictions on its resale; financial or business news of the issuer; similar or related securities that are actively trading; related corporate actions; and other significant events occurring after the close of trading in the security.

 

Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investors Bank & Trust Company (“IBT”). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at June 30, 2004, was paying an interest rate of 0.75%.

 

Repurchase agreements: The Fund is authorized to enter into repurchase agreements. The Fund, through IBT, receives delivery of the underlying securities, the value of which at the time of purchase is required to be an amount equal to at least 100% of the resale price. Repurchase agreements involve the risk that the seller will fail to repurchase the security, as agreed. In that case, the Fund will bear the risk of value fluctuations until the security can be sold and may encounter delays and incur costs in liquidating the security. In the event of bankruptcy or insolvency of the seller, delays and costs are incurred.

 

Directed brokerage: The sub-adviser, to the extent consistent with the best execution and usual commission rate policies and practices, may place security transactions of the Fund with broker/dealers with which ATSF has established a Directed Brokerage Program. A Directed Brokerage Program is any arrangement under which a broker/dealer applies a portion of the commissions received by such broker/dealer on the security transactions to the Fund. In no event will commissions paid by the Fund be used to pay expenses that would otherwise be borne by any other funds within ATSF, or by any other party. Directed commissions for the period ended June 30, 2004, of $12 are included in net realized gains in the Statement of Operations.

 

Securities lending: The Fund may lend securities to enhance fund earnings from investing cash collateral received in making such loans to qualified borrowers (typically broker/dealers). The Fund has engaged its custodian bank, IBT, as a lending agent to administer its securities lending program. IBT earned $34 of program net income for its services. When the Fund makes a security loan, it receives cash collateral as protection against the risk that the borrower will default on the loan, and records an asset for the cash invested collateral and a liability for the return of the collateral.

NOTE  1–(continued)

 

Loans of securities are required to be secured by collateral at least equal to 102% of the value of the securities at inception of the loan, and not

less then 100% thereafter. The Fund may invest cash collateral in short-term money market instruments including: U.S. Treasury Bills, U.S.. agency obligations, commercial paper, money market mutual funds, repurchase agreements and other highly rated, liquid investments. During the life of securities loans, the collateral and securities loaned remain subject to fluctuation in value. IBT marks to market securities loaned and the collateral each business day. If additional collateral is due (at least $1), IBT collects additional cash collateral from the borrowers. Although securities loaned will be fully collateralized at all times, IBT may experience delays in, or may be prevented from, recovering the collateral on behalf of the Fund. The Fund may recall a loaned security position at any time from the borrower through IBT. In the event the borrower fails to timely return a recalled security, IBT may indemnify the Fund by purchasing replacement securities for the Fund at its own expense and claiming the collateral to fund such a purchase. IBT absorbs the loss if the collateral value is not sufficient to cover the cost of the replacement securities. If replacement securities are not available, IBT will credit the equivalent cash value to the Fund.

 

While a security is on loan, the Fund does not have the right to vote that security. However, if time permits, the Fund will attempt to recall a security on loan and vote the proxy.

 

Income from securities lending is included in the Statement of Operations. The amount of collateral and value of securities on loan are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as well as in the Schedule of Investments.

 

Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the first-in, first-out basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, in the case of foreign securities, as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, including accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis commencing on the settlement date.

 

Dividend distributions: Dividend and capital gains distributions are typically declared and reinvested annually and are generally paid and reinvested on the business day following the ex-date.

If total fund expenses fall below the annual expense limitations agreed to by the adviser within the succeeding three years, the Fund may be required to pay the adviser a portion or all of the waived advisory fees.

 

There are no amounts subject to recapture at June 30, 2004.

 

The sub-adviser, T. Rowe Price, has agreed to a pricing discount based on the aggregate assets that they manage in ATSF and Transamerica IDEX Mutual Funds. The amount of the discount received by the Fund at June 30, 2004 was $23.

Under the Distribution Plan and Distribution Agreement on the Initial Class shares, AFSG, on behalf of the Fund, is authorized to pay various service providers, as direct payment for expenses incurred in connection with distribution of the Fund’s shares, amounts equal to actual expenses associated with distributing the shares.

 

The Distribution Plan on the Service Class shares requires ATSF to pay distribution fees to AFSG as compensation for its activities, not as

reimbursement for specific expenses. The fee on the Service Class is paid to the insurance companies for providing services and account maintenance for their policyholders who invest in the variable insurance products which invest in the Service Class shares.

 

The Fund is authorized under the 12b-1 plan to pay fees on each class up to the following limits:

 

Initial Class

   0.15%

Service Class

   0.25%

 

AFSG has determined that it will not seek payment by the Fund of the distribution expenses incurred with respect to the Initial Class shares before April 30, 2005. Prior to AFSG seeking reimbursement of future expenses, policy and contract owners will be notified in advance. The Fund will pay fees relating to Service Class shares.

 

Administrative services: The Fund has entered into an agreement with ATFS for financial and legal fund administration services, which includes such items as compliance, expenses, financial statements and other reporting, distributions, tax returns, prospectus preparation, board of directors meeting support, transfer agency and other legal matters. The Legal fees on the Statement of Operations are for fees paid to external legal counsel. The Fund paid ATFS $42 for Administration fees for the period ended June 30, 2004.

 

Deferred compensation plan: Each eligible Fund Director may elect participation in the Deferred Compensation Plan for Directors of ATSF (“the Plan”). Under the Plan, such Directors may defer payment of a percentage of their total fees earned as a Fund Director. These deferred amounts may be invested in any portfolio of Transamerica IDEX Mutual Funds, an affiliate of the Fund. At June 30, 2004, the value of invested plan amounts was $22. Invested plan amounts and the total liability for deferred compensation to the Directors under the Plan at June 30, 2004, are included in Net assets in the accompanying Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

NOTE  4. FEDERAL INCOME TAX MATTERS

 

The Fund has not made any provision for federal income taxes due to its policy to distribute all of its taxable income and capital gains to its shareholders and otherwise qualify as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for items including, but not limited to, wash sales, net operating losses and capital loss carryforwards.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE  1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The AEGON/Transamerica Series Fund, Inc. (“ATSF”) is a Maryland corporation registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. ATSF serves as a funding vehicle for variable life insurance, variable annuity and group annuity products. Van Kampen Active International Allocation (“the Fund”), part of ATSF, began operations as part of the Endeavor Series Trust, on April 8, 1991. The Fund became part of ATSF on May 1, 2002.

 

In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties, which provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote.

 

See the Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information for a description of the Fund’s investment objective.

 

In preparing the Fund’s financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with GAAP.

 

Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers two classes of shares, an Initial Class and a Service Class. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses.

 

Pricing of shares: The Fund prices its shares on the basis of the net asset value of each class of shares of the Fund, which is determined as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) (generally 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time) on each day on which the NYSE is open for trading (other than a day on which there are insufficient changes in the value of the Fund’s portfolio securities to materially affect the Fund’s net asset value or a day on which no shares are tendered for redemption and no order to purchase any shares is received).

 

Security valuations: Fund investments traded on an exchange are valued at the closing price on the day of valuation on the exchange where the security is principally traded. With respect to securities traded on the NASDAQ NMS, such closing price may be the last reported sales price or the NASDAQ Official Closing Price.

Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the last quoted bid price.

 

Debt securities are valued by independent pricing services; however, those that mature in sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market.

 

Investment company securities are valued at the net asset value of the underlying portfolio.

 

Foreign securities generally are valued based on quotations from the primary market in which they are traded and are translated from the local currency into U.S. dollars using closing exchange rates. Many foreign securities markets are open for trading at times when the U.S. markets are closed for trading, and many foreign securities markets close for trading before the close of the NYSE. The value of foreign securities may be affected significantly on a day that the NYSE is closed and an investor is unable to purchase or redeem shares. If a significant market event impacting the value of a portfolio security (e.g., natural disaster, company announcement, market volatility) occurs subsequent to the close of trading in the security, but prior to the calculation of the Fund’s net asset value per share, market quotations for that security may be determined to be unreliable and, accordingly, not “readily available.” If market quotations are not readily available, and the impact of such a significant market event materially affects the net asset value per share of the Fund, an affected portfolio security will be valued at fair market value as determined in good faith using guidelines adopted by the Board of Directors of the Fund, under the supervision of the Fund’s Valuation Committee. Factors that may be considered to value foreign securities at fair market value may include, among others: the value of other securities traded on other markets, foreign currency exchange activity and the trading of financial products tied to foreign securities.

 

Other securities for which quotations are not readily available also are valued at fair market value as determined in good faith using guidelines established by and under the supervision of the Board of Directors and the Fund’s Valuation Committee.

 

The Fund values its investment securities at fair value based upon procedures approved by the Board of Directors on days when significant events occur after the close of the principal exchange on which the securities are traded, and as a result, are expected to materially affect the value of investments. These guidelines may include: the type of security; any restrictions on its resale; financial or business news of the issuer; similar or related securities that are actively trading; related corporate actions; and other significant events occurring after the close of trading in the security.

 

Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investors Bank & Trust Company (“IBT”). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at June 30, 2004, was paying an interest rate of 0.75%.

 

Repurchase agreements: The Fund is authorized to enter into repurchase agreements. The Fund, through IBT, receives delivery of the

underlying securities, the value of which at the time of purchase is required to be an amount equal to at least 100% of the resale price. Repurchase agreements involve the risk that the seller will fail to repurchase the security, as agreed. In that case, the Fund will bear the risk of value fluctuations until the security can be sold and may encounter delays and incur costs in liquidating the security. In the event of bankruptcy or insolvency of the seller, delays and costs are incurred.

 

Directed brokerage: The sub-adviser, to the extent consistent with the best execution and usual commission rate policies and practices, may place security transactions of the Fund with broker/dealers with which ATSF has established a Directed Brokerage Program. A Directed Brokerage Program is any arrangement under which a broker/dealer

applies a portion of the commissions received by such broker/dealer on the security transactions to the Fund. In no event will commissions paid by the Fund be used to pay expenses that would otherwise be borne by any other funds within ATSF, or by any other party. Directed commissions for the period ended June 30, 2004, of $2 are included in net realized gains in the Statement of Operations.

 

Securities lending: The Fund may lend securities to enhance fund earnings from investing cash collateral received in making such loans to qualified borrowers (typically broker/dealers). The Fund has engaged its custodian bank, IBT, as a lending agent to administer its securities lending program. IBT earned $26 of program net income for its services. When the Fund makes a security loan, it receives cash collateral as protection against the risk that the borrower will default on the loan, and records an asset for the cash invested collateral and a liability for the return of the collateral.

 

Loans of securities are required to be secured by collateral at least equal to 102% of the value of the securities at inception of the loan, and not less then 100% thereafter. The Fund may invest cash collateral in short-term money market instruments including: U.S. Treasury Bills, U.S. agency obligations, commercial paper, money market mutual funds, repurchase agreements and other highly rated, liquid investments. During the life of securities loans, the collateral and securities loaned remain subject to fluctuation in value. IBT marks to market securities loaned and the collateral each business day. If additional collateral is due (at least $1), IBT collects additional cash collateral from the borrowers. Although securities loaned will be fully collateralized at all times, IBT may experience delays in, or may be prevented from, recovering the collateral on behalf of the Fund. The Fund may recall a loaned security position at any time from the borrower through IBT. In the event the borrower fails to timely return a recalled security, IBT may indemnify the Fund by purchasing replacement securities for the Fund at its own expense and claiming the collateral to fund such a purchase. IBT absorbs the loss if the collateral value is not sufficient to cover the cost of the replacement securities. If replacement securities are not available, IBT will credit the equivalent cash value to the Fund.

 

While a security is on loan, the Fund does not have the right to vote that security. However, if time permits, the Fund will attempt to recall security on loan and vote the proxy.

 

Income from securities lending is included in the Statement of Operations. The amount of collateral and value of securities on loan are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as well as in the Schedule of Investments.

 

Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the first-in, first-out basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, in the case of foreign securities, as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, including accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis commencing on the settlement date.

 

Foreign currency denominated investments: The accounting records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the closing exchange rate each day. The cost of foreign securities is translated at the exchange rate in effect when the investment was acquired. The Fund combines fluctuations from currency exchange rates and fluctuations in value when computing net realized and unrealized gains or losses from investments.

 

Foreign Capital gains taxes: The Fund may be subject to taxes imposed by countries in which it invests, with respect to its investment in issuers existing or operating in such countries. Such taxes are generally based on income earned or repatriated and capital gains realized on the sale of such investments. The Fund accrues such taxes when the related income or capital gains are earned. Some countries require governmental approval for the repatriation of investment income, capital or the proceeds of sales earned by foreign investors. In addition, if there is a deterioration in a country’s balance of payments or for other reasons, a country may impose temporary restrictions on foreign capital remittances abroad.

 

The Fund’s investments in India are subject to a 30% governmental short-term capital gains tax. The Indian government has elected to waive the long-term capital gains tax of 10% on equities securities held for longer than one year. This waiver of tax is effective through March of 2007. Such taxes are due upon sale of individual securities. The Fund accrues for taxes on the capital gains throughout the holding period of the underlying securities.

 

The Fund’s investments in Thailand are subject to a 15% governmental capital gains tax. Such taxes are due upon sale of individual securities. The Fund accrues for taxes on the capital gains throughout the holding period of the underlying securities.

 

Net foreign currency gains and losses resulting from changes in exchange rates include: 1) foreign currency fluctuations between trade date and settlement date of investment security transactions; 2) gains and losses on forward foreign currency contracts; and 3) the difference

between the receivable amounts of interest and dividends recorded in the accounting records in U.S. dollars and the amounts actually received.

 

Foreign currency denominated assets may involve risks not typically associated with domestic transactions, including unanticipated movements in exchange currency rates, the degree of government supervision and regulation of security markets, and the possibility of political or economic instability.

 

Forward foreign currency contracts: The Fund may enter into forward foreign currency contracts to hedge against exchange rate risk arising from investments in securities denominated in foreign currencies. Contracts are valued at the contractual forward rate and are marked to market daily, with the change in value recorded as an unrealized gain or loss. When the contracts are closed a realized gain or loss is incurred. Risks may arise from changes in market value of the underlying currencies and from the possible inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts. Open forward currency contracts at June 30, 2004, are listed in the Schedule of Investments.

 

Futures contracts: The Fund may enter into futures contracts to manage exposure to market, interest rate or currency fluctuations. Futures contracts are valued at the settlement price established each day by the board of trade or exchange on which they are traded. The primary risks associated with futures contracts are imperfect correlation between the change in market value of the securities held and the prices of futures contracts; the possibility of an illiquid market and inability of the counterpart to meet the contract terms.

 

The underlying face amount of open futures contracts at June 30, 2004, are listed in the Schedule of Investments. The variation margin receivable or payable, as applicable, is included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Variation margin represents the additional payments due or excess deposits made in order to maintain the equity account at the required margin level.

 

Dividend distributions: Dividend and capital gains distributions are typically declared and reinvested annually and are generally paid and reinvested on the business day following the ex-date.

NOTE  2–(continued)

 

Under the Distribution Plan and Distribution Agreement on the Initial Class shares, AFSG, on behalf of the Fund, is authorized to pay various service providers, as direct payment for expenses incurred in connection with distribution of the Fund’s shares, amounts equal to actual expenses associated with distributing the shares.

 

The Distribution Plan on the Service Class shares requires ATSF to pay distribution fees to AFSG as compensation for its activities, not as reimbursement for specific expenses. The fee on the Service Class is paid to the insurance companies for providing services and account maintenance for their policyholders who invest in the variable insurance products which invest in the Service Class shares.

 

The Fund is authorized under the 12b-1 plan to pay fees on each class up to the following limits:

 

Initial Class

   0.15%

Service Class

   0.25%

 

AFSG has determined that it will not seek payment by the Fund of the distribution expenses incurred with respect to the Initial Class shares before April 30, 2005. Prior to AFSG seeking reimbursement of future expenses, policy and contract owners will be notified in advance. The Fund will pay fees relating to Service Class shares.

 

Administrative services: The Fund has entered into an agreement with ATFS for financial and legal fund administration services, which includes such items as compliance, expenses, financial statements and other reporting, distributions, tax returns, prospectus preparation, board of directors meeting support, transfer agency and other legal matters. The Legal fees on the Statement of Operations are for fees paid to external legal counsel. The Fund paid ATFS $15 for Administration fees for the period ended June 30, 2004.

 

Deferred compensation plan: Each eligible Fund Director may elect participation in the Deferred Compensation Plan for Directors of ATSF (“the Plan”). Under the Plan, such Directors may defer payment of a percentage of their total fees earned as a Fund Director. These deferred amounts may be invested in any portfolio of Transamerica IDEX Mutual Funds, an affiliate of the Fund. At June 30, 2004, the value of invested plan amounts was $8. Invested plan amounts and the total liability for deferred compensation to the Directors under the Plan at June 30, 2004, are included in Net assets in the accompanying Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

NOTE  3. INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS

 

The cost of securities purchased and proceeds from securities sold (excluding short-term securities) for the period ended June 30, 2004, were as follows:

 

Purchases of securities:

      

Long-Term excluding U.S. Government

   $ 73,579

U.S. Government

    

Proceeds from maturities and sales of securities:

      

Long-Term excluding U.S. Government

     25,426

U.S. Government

    

 

NOTE  4. FEDERAL INCOME TAX MATTERS

 

The Fund has not made any provision for federal income taxes due to its policy to distribute all of its taxable income and capital gains to its shareholders and otherwise qualify as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for items including, but not limited to, wash sales, foreign currency transactions, and capital loss carryforwards.

 

The capital loss carryforwards are available to offset future realized capital gains through the periods listed:

 

Capital Loss
Carryforward


  

Available through

28,603    December 31, 2010
5,326    December 31, 2011

 

The Fund has elected to treat the net capital losses incurred in the two month period prior to December 31, 2003 of $561 (Post-October Loss Deferred) as having been incurred in the fiscal year ending December 31, 2004.

 

The aggregate cost of investments and composition of unrealized appreciation (depreciation) for federal income tax purposes as of June 30, 2004, are as follows:

 

Federal Tax Cost Basis

   $   191,497  
    


Unrealized Appreciation

NOTE  1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The AEGON/Transamerica Series Fund, Inc. (“ATSF”) is a Maryland corporation registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. ATSF serves as a funding vehicle for variable life insurance, variable annuity and group annuity products. Van Kampen Emerging Growth (“the Fund”), part of ATSF, began operations on March 1, 1993.

 

In the normal course of business the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties, which provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote.

 

See the Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information for a description of the Fund’s investment objective.

 

In preparing the Fund’s financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with GAAP.

 

Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers two classes of shares, an Initial Class and a Service Class. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses.

 

Pricing of shares: The Fund prices its shares on the basis of the net asset value of each class of shares of the Fund, which is determined as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) (generally 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time) on each day on which the NYSE is open for trading (other than a day on which there are insufficient changes in the value of the Fund’s portfolio securities to materially affect the Fund’s net asset value or a day on which no shares are tendered for redemption and no order to purchase any shares is received).

 

Security valuations: Fund investments traded on an exchange are valued at the closing price on the day of valuation on the exchange where the security is principally traded. With respect to securities traded on the NASDAQ NMS, such closing price may be the last reported sales price or the NASDAQ Official Closing Price.

 

Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the last quoted bid price.

Debt securities are valued by independent pricing services; however, those that mature in sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market.

 

Investment company securities are valued at the net asset value of the underlying portfolio.

 

Other securities for which quotations are not readily available also are valued at fair market value as determined in good faith using guidelines established by and under the supervision of the Board of Directors, and the Fund’s Valuation Committee. These guidelines may include: the type of security; any restrictions on its resale; financial or business news of the issuer; similar or related securities that are actively trading; related corporate actions; and other significant events occurring after the close of trading in the security.

 

Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investors Bank & Trust Company (“IBT”). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at June 30, 2004, was paying an interest rate of 0.75%.

 

Repurchase agreements: The Fund is authorized to enter into repurchase agreements. The Fund, through IBT, receives delivery of the underlying securities, the value of which at the time of purchase is required to be an amount equal to at least 100% of the resale price. Repurchase agreements involve the risk that the seller will fail to repurchase the security, as agreed. In that case, the Fund will bear the risk of value fluctuations until the security can be sold and may encounter delays and incur costs in liquidating the security. In the event of bankruptcy or insolvency of the seller, delays and costs are incurred.

 

Directed brokerage: The sub-adviser, to the extent consistent with the best execution and usual commission rate policies and practices, may place security transactions of the Fund with broker/dealers with which ATSF has established a Directed Brokerage Program. A Directed Brokerage Program is any arrangement under which a broker/dealer applies a portion of the commissions received by such broker/dealer on the security transactions to the Fund. In no event will commissions paid by the Fund be used to pay expenses that would otherwise be borne by any other funds within ATSF, or by any other party. Directed commissions for the period ended June 30, 2004, of $328 are included in net realized gains in the Statement of Operations.

 

Securities lending: The Fund may lend securities to enhance fund earnings from investing cash collateral received in making such loans to qualified borrowers (typically broker/dealers). The Fund has engaged its custodian bank, IBT, as a lending agent to administer its securities lending program. IBT earned $28 of program net income for its services. When the Fund makes a security loan, it receives cash collateral as protection against the risk that the borrower will default on the loan, and records an asset for the cash invested collateral and a liability for the return of the collateral.

 

Loans of securities are required to be secured by collateral at least equal to 102% of the value of the securities at inception of the loan, and not less then 100% thereafter. The Fund may invest cash collateral in short-

term money market instruments including: U.S. Treasury Bills, U.S. agency obligations, commercial paper, money market mutual funds, repurchase agreements and other highly rated, liquid investments. During the life of securities loans, the collateral and securities loaned remain subject to fluctuation in value. IBT marks to market securities loaned and the collateral each business day. If additional collateral is due (at least $1), IBT collects additional cash collateral from the borrowers. Although securities loaned will be fully collateralized at all times, IBT may experience delays in, or may be prevented from, recovering the collateral on behalf of the Fund. The Fund may recall a loaned security position at any time from the borrower through IBT. In the event the borrower fails to timely return a recalled security, IBT may indemnify the Fund by purchasing replacement securities for the Fund at its own expense and claiming the collateral to fund such a purchase. IBT absorbs the loss if the collateral value is not sufficient to cover the cost of the replacement securities. If replacement securities are not available, IBT will credit the equivalent cash value to the Fund.

 

While a security is on loan, the Fund does not have the right to vote that security. However, if time permits, the Fund will attempt to recall a security on loan and vote the proxy.

 

Income from securities lending is included in the Statement of Operations. The amount of collateral and value of securities on loan are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as well as in the Schedule of Investments.

 

Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the first-in, first-out basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, in the case of foreign securities, as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, including accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis commencing on the settlement date.

 

Dividend distributions: Dividend and capital gains distributions are typically declared and reinvested annually and are generally paid and reinvested on the business day following the ex-date.

 

NOTE  2. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

 

AEGON/Transamerica Fund Advisers, Inc. (“ATFA”) is the Fund’s investment adviser. AEGON/Transamerica Fund Services, Inc. (“ATFS”) is the Fund’s administrator and transfer agent. AFSG Securities Corp. (“AFSG”) is the Fund’s distributor. AFSG is 100% owned by AUSA Holding Company (“AUSA”). ATFA is a directly owned subsidiary of Western Reserve Life Assurance Co. of Ohio (78%) (“WRL”) and AUSA (22%). ATFS is a wholly owned subsidiary of WRL. AUSA and WRL are wholly owned indirect subsidiaries of AEGON NV, a Netherlands corporation.

Certain officers and directors of the Fund are also officers and/or directors of ATFA, ATFS, AFSG and WRL. No affiliated officer or director receives any compensation directly from the Fund.

 

Investment advisory fees: The Fund pays management fees to ATFA based on average daily net assets (“ANA”) at the following rate:

 

0.80% of ANA

 

ATFA has contractually agreed to waive its advisory fee and will reimburse the Fund to the extent that operating expenses, excluding 12b-1 fees, exceed the following stated annual limit:

 

1.00% Expense Limit

 

If total fund expenses fall below the annual expense limitations agreed to by the adviser within the succeeding three years, the Fund may be required to pay the adviser a portion or all of the waived advisory fees.

 

There are no amounts subject to recapture at June 30, 2004.

 

Distribution and service fees: The Fund adopted a distribution plan (“Distribution Plan”) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Pursuant to the Distribution Plan, ATSF entered into a Distribution Agreement with AFSG effective May 1, 1999.

 

Under the Distribution Plan and Distribution Agreement on the Initial Class shares, AFSG, on behalf of the Fund, is authorized to pay various service providers, as direct payment for expenses incurred in connection with distribution of the Fund’s shares, amounts equal to actual expenses associated with distributing the shares.

 

The Distribution Plan on the Service Class shares requires ATSF to pay distribution fees to AFSG as compensation for its activities, not as reimbursement for specific expenses. The fee on the Service Class is paid to the insurance companies for providing services and account maintenance for their policyholders who invest in the variable insurance products which invest in the Service Class shares.

 

The Fund is authorized under the 12b-1 plan to pay fees on each class up to the following limits:

 

Initial Class

   0.15%

Service Class

   0.25%

 

AFSG has determined that it will not seek payment by the Fund of the distribution expenses incurred with respect to the Initial Class shares before April 30, 2005. Prior to AFSG seeking reimbursement of future expenses, policy and contract owners will be notified in advance. The Fund will pay fees relating to Service Class shares.

 

Administrative services: The Fund has entered into an agreement with ATFS for financial and legal fund administration services, which includes such items as compliance, expenses, financial statements and other reporting, distributions, tax returns, prospectus preparation, board of directors meeting support, transfer agency and other legal matters. The Legal fees on the Statement of Operations are for fees paid

to external legal counsel. The Fund paid ATFS $56 for Administration fees, for the period ended June 30, 2004.

 

Brokerage commissions: Brokerage commissions incurred on security transactions placed with an affiliate of the sub-adviser for the period ended June 30, 2004, were $64.

 

Deferred compensation plan: Each eligible Fund Director may elect participation in the Deferred Compensation Plan for Directors of ATSF (“the Plan”). Under the Plan, such Directors may defer payment of a percentage of their total fees earned as a Fund Director. These deferred amounts may be invested in any portfolio of Transamerica IDEX Mutual Funds, an affiliate of the Fund. At June 30, 2004, the value of invested plan amounts was $28. Invested plan amounts and the total liability for deferred compensation to the Directors under the Plan at June 30, 2004, are included in Net assets in the accompanying Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

 

NOTE  3. INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS

 

The cost of securities purchased and proceeds from securities sold (excluding short-term securities) for the period ended June 30, 2004, were as follows:

Long-Term excluding U.S. Government

     767,294

NOTE  4. FEDERAL INCOME TAX MATTERS

 

The Fund has not made any provision for federal income taxes due to its policy to distribute all of its taxable income and capital gains to its shareholders and otherwise qualify as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for items including, but not limited to, wash sales, net operating losses and capital loss carryforwards.

 

The capital loss carryforwards are available to offset future realized capital gains through the periods listed:

 

Capital Loss
Carryforward


   Available through

$429,131    December 31, 2009
  285,142    December 31, 2010

 

The aggregate cost of investments and composition of unrealized appreciation (depreciation) for federal income tax purposes as of June 30, 2004, are as follows:

 

Federal Tax Cost Basis

   $   701,770

NOTE  5. OTHER MATTERS

NOTE  1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The AEGON/Transamerica Series Fund, Inc. (“ATSF”) is a Maryland corporation registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. ATSF serves as a funding vehicle for variable life insurance, variable annuity and group annuity products. Van Kampen Large Cap Core (“the Fund”), part of ATSF, began operations as part of the Endeavor Series Trust, on April 8, 1991. The Fund became part of ATSF on May 1, 2002.

 

On May 3, 2004, the Fund changed its name from Van Kampen Asset Allocation to Van Kampen Large Cap Core.

 

In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties, which provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote.

 

See the Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information for a description of the Fund’s investment objective.

 

In preparing the Fund’s financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with GAAP.

 

Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers two classes of shares, an Initial Class and a Service Class. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses.

 

Pricing of shares: The Fund prices its shares on the basis of the net asset value of each class of shares of the Fund, which is determined as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) (generally 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time) on each day on which the NYSE is open for trading (other than a day on which there are insufficient changes in the value of the Fund’s portfolio securities to materially affect the Fund’s net asset value or a day on which no shares are tendered for redemption and no order to purchase any shares is received).

 

Security valuations: Fund investments traded on an exchange are valued at the closing price on the day of valuation on the exchange where the security is principally traded. With respect to securities traded on the NASDAQ INMS, such closing price may be the last reported sales price or the NASDAQ Official Closing Price.

 

Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the last quoted bid price.

 

Debt securities are valued by independent pricing services; however, those that mature in sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market.

 

Investment company securities are valued at the net asset value of the underlying portfolio.

 

Other securities for which quotations are not readily available also are valued at fair market value as determined in good faith using guidelines established by and under the supervision of the Board of Directors, and the Fund’s Valuation Committee. These guidelines may include: the type of security; any restrictions on its resale; financial or business news of the issuer; similar or related securities that are actively trading; related corporate actions; and other significant events occurring after the close of trading in the security.

 

Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investors Bank & Trust Company (“IBT”). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at June 30, 2004, was paying an interest rate of 0.75%.

 

Repurchase agreements: The Fund is authorized to enter into repurchase agreements. The Fund, through IBT, receives delivery of the underlying securities, the value of which at the time of purchase is required to be an amount equal to at least 100% of the resale price. Repurchase agreements involve the risk that the seller will fail to repurchase the security, as agreed. In that case, the Fund will bear the risk of value fluctuations until the security can be sold and may encounter delays and incur costs in liquidating the security. In the event of bankruptcy or insolvency of the seller, delays and costs are incurred.

 

Directed brokerage: The sub-adviser, to the extent consistent with the best execution and usual commission rate policies and practices, may place security transactions of the Fund with broker/dealers with which ATSF has established a Directed Brokerage Program. A Directed Brokerage Program is any arrangement under which a broker/dealer applies a portion of the commissions received by such broker/dealer on the security transactions to the Fund. In no event will commissions paid by the Fund be used to pay expenses that would otherwise be borne by any other funds within ATSF, or by any other party. Directed commissions for the period ended June 30, 2004, of $11 are included in net realized gains in the Statement of Operations.

 

Securities lending: The Fund may lend securities to enhance fund earnings from investing cash collateral received in making such loans to qualified borrowers (typically broker/dealers). The Fund has engaged its custodian bank, IBT, as a lending agent to administer its securities lending program. IBT earned $14 of program net income for its

services. When the Fund makes a security loan, it receives cash collateral as protection against the risk that the borrower will default on the loan, and records an asset for the cash invested collateral and a liability for the return of the collateral.

 

Loans of securities are required to be secured by collateral at least equal to 102% of the value of the securities at inception of the loan, and not less then 100% thereafter. The Fund may invest cash collateral in short-term money market instruments including: U.S. Treasury Bills, U.S. agency obligations, commercial paper, money market mutual funds, repurchase agreements and other highly rated, liquid investments. During the life of securities loans, the collateral and securities loaned remain subject to fluctuation in value. IBT marks to market securities loaned and the collateral each business day. If additional collateral is due (at least $1), IBT collects additional cash collateral from the borrowers. Although securities loaned will be fully collateralized at all times, IBT may experience delays in, or may be prevented from, recovering the collateral on behalf of the Fund. The Fund may recall a loaned security position at any time from the borrower through IBT. In the event the borrower fails to timely return a recalled security, IBT may indemnify the Fund by purchasing replacement securities for the Fund at its own expense and claiming the collateral to fund such a purchase. IBT absorbs the loss if the collateral value is not sufficient to cover the cost of the replacement securities. If replacement securities are not available, IBT will credit the equivalent cash value to the Fund.

 

While a security is on loan, the Fund does not have the right to vote that security. However, if time permits, the Fund will attempt to recall a security on loan and vote the proxy.

 

Income from securities lending is included in the Statement of Operations. The amount of collateral and value of securities on loan are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as well as in the Schedule of Investments.

 

Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the first-in, first-out basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, in the case of foreign securities, as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, including accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis commencing on the settlement date.

 

Futures contracts: The Fund may enter into futures contracts to manage exposure to market, interest rate or currency fluctuations. Futures contracts are valued at the settlement price established each day by the board of trade or exchange on which they are traded. The primary risks associated with futures contracts are imperfect correlation between the change in market value of the securities held and the prices of futures

contracts; the possibility of an illiquid market and inability of the counterpart to meet the contract terms.

Dividend distributions: Dividend and capital gains distributions are typically declared and reinvested annually and are generally paid and reinvested on the business day following the ex-date.
