Fund Performance Discussion
The Funds Class A shares (without sales charge) produced a total return of 10.14% during the reporting period, outperforming the Russell
2500 Growth Index (the Index), which returned 10.08%. The Fund also outperformed the Russell 2000 Growth Index and the Russell MidCap Growth Index, which returned 9.70% and 9.09%, respectively, as well as its peers in the Lipper Mid-Cap
Growth Funds Index, which returned 6.94%.
MARKET OVERVIEW
During the reporting period, global equity markets generally experienced gains despite sustained macroeconomic
concerns. The period began during a period of improved market sentiment in which the United States managed to avoid a return to recession and European policymakers appeared to take steps to address the regions sovereign debt and banking sector
crises. Renewed investor optimism helped produce gains across a number of international equity markets over the first three months of 2012. The rebound across equities gained momentum after the
European Central Bank (the ECB) implemented dual Long-Term Refinancing Operations to enhance liquidity for troubled banks and reduce rates on newly issued sovereign debt securities.
However, the second quarter of 2012 was a volatile time for global markets. The fear of contagion from the worsening European sovereign debt crisis and a recession
across much of Europe drove negative market sentiment, particularly over May and June. Very high unemployment, soaring debt and

higher borrowing costs in Greece, Spain and Italy contributed to serious questions over how to implement austerity
measures, restructure debt or instead take a different tact and provide some or all of those countries with additional funds. Perhaps most worrisome of all to investors was the possibility of Greece pulling out of the euro and its ramifications for
the future of the Eurozone and its common currency. In the U.S., slower than expected first quarter growth also contributed to a sell-off in the U.S. stock market. Consumer confidence dropped as U.S. unemployment figures ticked slightly upwards
after showing signs of improvement from the recession highs.
The markets generally rallied over the closing months of the period, as increased stimulus
measures taken by the ECB and the U.S. Federal Reserve (the Fed) helped boost global equity markets during the third quarter. The ECB committed to potentially unlimited bond purchases to ease financing pressure on countries like Spain
and Italy. Under the plan, these and other members of the European Union (excluding Greece) will be able to maintain access to funding at sustainable interest rates, on the condition that they continue with strict reform programs. In the U.S., the
Fed introduced a third round of quantitative easing (QE3), under which it announced plans to purchase mortgage-backed bonds on a monthly basis until the labor market shows signs of substantial improvement. While these actions boosted the markets
during the reporting period, a number of concerns throughout the
globe remained, including slowing growth in China, continued European debt concerns and worries over the so-called fiscal cliff in the U.S. as politicians began discussions over expiring tax cuts
and revenue shortfalls.
FUND PEFORMANCE
The Funds performance during the period was largely supported by favorable stock selection in the information technology, health care and energy sectors,
partly offset by stock performance in the industrials and consumer discretionary sectors.
The top two positive contributors to Fund performance during
the period were health care stocks: Alexion Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and Catamaran Corp. Alexion is a global biopharmaceutical company that focuses on developing treatments for ultra-rare diseases. The companys lead drug Soliris treats patients
with rare, life-threatening blood disorders. In addition to growing quickly in its original indication, Soliris was approved for patients in a second indication. Alexion was one of the largest holdings in the Fund at period end. Catamaran Corp., a
pharmacy benefit management (PBM) service provider, completed the acquisition of a large competitor, which we believe enhances its prospects for profitability and growth. Catamaran also reported strong quarterly financial results throughout the
period.
Also contributing positively to performance this period were Equinix, Inc., TransDigm Group, Inc. and Michael Kors Holdings Ltd. Equinix
provides a global platform of

data centers and internet exchanges. The company benefited from higher demand for its data center services from telecom operators, and also announced plans to expand in Brazil with the opening of
a new data center. Equinix also announced plans to convert to a real estate investment trust (REIT) around 2015. TransDigm is a global designer, producer and supplier of aircraft components for use on commercial and military-aircraft. The company
experienced more than 30% growth in revenue and earnings during the period driven partly by acquisitions. Michael Kors designs, distributes, and sells high-fashion apparel, footwear, and accessories for men and women. The company experienced more
than 50% growth in sales and earnings during the period, helped by the continued success of the Michael Kors brand and the expansion of its retail stores.
While detractors from performance were limited this period, the most significant were consumer discretionary stock Deckers Outdoor Corp. and industrials stock Polypore International, Inc. Deckers, a manufacturer of
footwear, including the UGG brand, sold off on concerns about a potential negative impact on demand from unseasonably warm weather. Polypore International, a global high technology filtration company, experienced declines largely due to weak orders
from consumer electronic customers and delays in electric vehicle production. We exited our position in both of these stocks by period end.
At the end of the period, the Funds largest sector overweights relative to the Index were energy, consumer
discretionary and information technology and the largest underweight was the industrials sector.
STRATEGY & OUTLOOK
Looking forward, we expect a challenging macroeconomic environment characterized by modest GDP growth, very low interest rates and anemic corporate
profit growth. In addition, we believe the stock market will be influenced by uncertainty involving the so-called fiscal cliff, difficult economic and sovereign debt challenges in Europe as well as questions about the growth prospects of China.
Despite these formidable challenges, we are encouraged that the Small and Mid-Cap Growth segments of the market offers in our view reasonable
valuations, relatively low exposure to the problems of Europe and possible mergers and acquisitions interest from large companies seeking new avenues of growth. We will continue to focus our efforts on seeking high-quality, faster growing small and
mid-sized companies that we believe have the potential to generate positive returns.

The performance data quoted represents past performance, which does not
guarantee future results.
The investment return and principal value of an investment in the Fund will fluctuate so that an investors shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than
their original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance quoted. Returns do not consider capital gains or income taxes on an individuals investment. For performance data current to the most recent month-end, visit
oppenheimerfunds.com or call 1.800.CALL OPP (225.5677). Fund returns include changes in share price, reinvested distributions, and the applicable sales charge: for Class A shares, the current maximum initial sales charge of 5.75%; for Class B
shares, the contingent deferred sales charge of 5% (1-year) and 2% (5-year); and for Class C and N shares, the contingent deferred sales charge of 1% for the 1-year period. Because Class B shares convert to Class A shares 72 months after
purchase, the 10-year return for Class B shares uses Class A performance for the period after conversion. There is no sales charge for Class Y shares
The Funds performance is compared to the performance of the Russell 2500 Growth Index, the Russell 2000 Growth Index and the Russell MidCap Growth Index. The Russell 2500 Growth Index is an index of U.S.
small-cap and mid-cap growth stocks. The Russell 2000 Growth Index measures the performance of the small-cap growth segment of the U.S. equity universe. It includes those Russell 2000 companies with higher price-to-book ratios and higher forecasted
growth values. The Russell MidCap Growth Index is an index that measures the performance of those Russell mid-cap companies with higher price-to-book ratios and higher forecasted growth values. The indices are unmanaged and cannot be purchased
directly by investors. Index performance is shown for illustrative purposes only and does not predict or depict the performance of the Fund. While index comparisons may be useful to provide a benchmark for the Funds performance, it must be
noted that the Funds investments are not limited to the investments comprising the indices.

Fund Expenses
Fund Expenses.
As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, which may include sales charges (loads) on purchase payments, contingent deferred sales charges on
redemptions; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and service fees; and other Fund expenses. These examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to
compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The examples are based on an investment of $1,000.00 invested at the
beginning of the period and held for the entire 6-month period ended October 31, 2012.
Actual Expenses.
The first section of the table
provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section for the class of shares you hold, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expense that you paid over the period. Simply
divide your account value by $1,000.00 (for example, an $8,600.00 account value divided by $1,000.00 = 8.60), then multiply the result by the number in the first section under the heading entitled Expenses Paid During Period to
estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes.
The second section of the table
provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Funds actual expense ratio for each class of shares, and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year for each class before expenses, which is not
the actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and
other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example for the class of shares you hold with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as front-end or contingent deferred sales charges (loads), or a
$12.00 fee imposed annually on accounts valued at less than $500.00 (subject to exceptions described in the Statement of Additional Information). Therefore, the hypothetical section of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only,
and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

NOTES TO
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Significant Accounting Policies
Oppenheimer Small- & Mid-Cap Growth Fund (the Fund) is an open-end management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act
of 1940, as amended. The Funds investment objective is to seek capital appreciation. The Funds investment adviser is OppenheimerFunds, Inc. (the Manager).
The Fund offers Class A, Class C, Class N and Class Y shares, and previously offered Class B shares for new purchase through
June 29, 2012. Subsequent to that date, no new purchases of Class B shares will be permitted, however reinvestment of dividend and/or capital gain distributions and exchanges of Class B shares into and from other Oppenheimer funds will be
allowed. Class A shares are sold at their offering price, which is normally net asset value plus a front-end sales charge. Class C and Class N shares are sold, and Class B shares were sold, without a front-end sales charge but may be subject to
a contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC). Class N shares are sold only through retirement plans. Retirement plans that offer Class N shares may impose charges on those accounts. Class Y shares are sold to certain institutional investors
or intermediaries without either a front-end sales charge or a CDSC, however, the intermediaries may impose charges on their accountholders who beneficially own Class Y shares. All classes of shares have identical rights and voting privileges with
respect to the Fund in general and exclusive voting rights on matters that affect that class alone. Earnings, net assets and net asset value per share may differ due to each class having its own expenses, such as transfer and shareholder servicing
agent fees and shareholder communications, directly attributable to that class. Class A, B, C and N shares have separate distribution and/or service plans under which they pay fees. Class Y shares do not pay such fees. Class B shares will
automatically convert to Class A shares 72 months after the date of purchase.
The following is a summary of significant
accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund.
Investment in Oppenheimer Institutional Money Market Fund.
The Fund is permitted to invest daily
available cash balances in an affiliated money market fund. The Fund may invest the available cash in Class E shares of Oppenheimer Institutional Money Market Fund (IMMF) to seek current income while preserving liquidity. IMMF is a
registered open-end management investment company, regulated as a money market fund under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Manager is also the investment adviser of IMMF. When applicable, the Funds investment in IMMF is
included in the Statement of Investments. Shares of IMMF are valued at their net asset value per share. As a shareholder, the Fund is subject to its proportional share of IMMFs Class E expenses, including its management fee. The Manager will
waive fees and/or reimburse Fund expenses in an amount equal to the indirect management fees incurred through the Funds investment in IMMF.
Allocation of Income, Expenses, Gains and Losses.
Income, expenses (other than those attributable to a specific class), gains and losses are allocated
on a daily basis to each class of shares based upon the relative proportion of net assets represented by such class. Operating expenses directly attributable to a specific class are charged against the operations of that class.

Federal
Taxes.
The Fund intends to comply with provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all of its investment company
taxable income, including any net realized gain on investments not offset by capital loss carryforwards, if any, to shareholders. Therefore, no federal income or excise tax provision is required. The Fund files income tax returns in U.S. federal and
applicable state jurisdictions. The statute of limitations on the Funds tax return filings generally remain open for the three preceding fiscal reporting period ends.
The tax components of capital shown in the following table represent distribution requirements the Fund must satisfy under the income tax regulations, losses the Fund may be able to offset against income and
gains realized in future years and unrealized appreciation or depreciation of securities and other investments for federal income tax purposes.

Net investment income (loss) and net realized gain (loss) may
differ for financial statement and tax purposes. The character of dividends and distributions made during the fiscal year from net investment income or net realized gains may differ from their ultimate characterization for federal income tax
purposes. Also, due to timing of dividends and distributions, the fiscal year in which amounts are distributed may differ from the fiscal year in which the income or net realized gain was recorded by the Fund.
Accordingly, the following amounts have been reclassified for October 31, 2012. Net assets of the Fund were unaffected by the reclassifications.

Trustees Compensation.
The Fund has
adopted an unfunded retirement plan (the Plan) for the Funds independent trustees. Benefits are based on years of service and fees paid to each trustee during their period of service. The Plan was frozen with respect to adding new
participants effective December 31, 2006 (the Freeze Date) and existing Plan Participants as of the Freeze Date will continue to receive accrued benefits under the Plan. Active independent trustees as of the Freeze Date have each
elected a distribution method with respect to their benefits under the Plan. During the year ended October 31, 2012, the Funds projected benefit obligations, payments to retired trustees and accumulated liability were as follows:

The Board of Trustees has adopted a compensation deferral plan for independent trustees that enables trustees to elect to
defer receipt of all or a portion of the annual compensation they are entitled to receive from the Fund. For purposes of determining the amount owed to the Trustee under the plan, deferred amounts are treated as though equal dollar amounts had been
invested in shares of the Fund or in other Oppenheimer funds selected by the Trustee. The Fund purchases shares of the funds selected for deferral by the Trustee in amounts equal to his or her deemed investment, resulting in a Fund asset equal to
the deferred compensation liability. Such assets are included as a component of Other within the asset section of the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Deferral of trustees fees under the plan will not affect the net assets of
the Fund, and will not materially affect the Funds assets, liabilities or net investment income per share. Amounts will be deferred until distributed in accordance with the compensation deferral plan.

Dividends and
Distributions to Shareholders.
Dividends and distributions to shareholders, which are determined in accordance with income tax regulations and may differ from U.S. generally accepted
accounting principles, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gain distributions, if any, are declared and paid annually or at other times as deemed necessary by the Manager.
Investment Income.
Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or upon ex-dividend notification in the case of certain foreign dividends where
the ex-dividend date may have passed. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Interest income is recognized on an accrual basis. Discount and premium, which are
included in interest income on the Statement of Operations, are amortized or accreted daily.
Custodian Fees.
Custodian fees and
expenses in the Statement of Operations may include interest expense incurred by the Fund on any cash overdrafts of its custodian account during the period. Such cash overdrafts may result from the effects of failed trades in portfolio
securities and from cash outflows resulting from unanticipated shareholder redemption activity. The Fund pays interest to its custodian on such cash overdrafts, to the extent they are not offset by positive cash balances maintained by the Fund, at a
rate equal to the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.50%. The Reduction to custodian expenses line item, if applicable, represents earnings on cash balances maintained by the Fund during the period. Such interest expense and other custodian fees
may be paid with these earnings.
Security Transactions.
Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Realized gains and
losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost.
Indemnifications.
The Funds
organizational documents provide current and former trustees and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the Fund. In the normal course of business, the Fund may also
enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The Funds maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against the Fund. The risk of material loss from such
claims is considered remote.
Other.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

2. Securities Valuation
The Fund calculates the net asset value of its shares as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (the Exchange), normally 4:00 P.M. Eastern time, on each day the Exchange is open for trading.
The Funds Board has adopted procedures for the valuation of the Funds securities and has delegated the day-to-day
responsibility for valuation determinations under those procedures to the Manager. The Manager has established a Valuation Committee which is responsible for determining a fair valuation for any security for which market quotations are
not readily available. The Valuation Committees fair valuation determinations are subject to review, approval and ratification by the Funds Board at its next regularly scheduled meeting covering the calendar quarter in which
the fair valuation was determined.
Valuation Methods and Inputs
Securities are valued using unadjusted quoted market prices, when available, as supplied primarily by third party pricing services or dealers.
The following methodologies are used to determine the market value or the fair value of the types of securities described below:
Securities traded on a registered U.S. securities exchange (including exchange-traded derivatives other than futures and futures options) are
valued based on the last sale price of the security reported on the principal exchange on which it is traded, prior to the time when the Funds assets are valued. In the absence of a sale, the security is valued at the last sale price on the
prior trading day, if it is within the spread of the current days closing bid and asked prices, and if not, at the current days closing bid price. A security of a foreign issuer traded on a foreign exchange but
not listed on a registered U.S. securities exchange is valued based on the last sale price on the principal exchange on which the security is traded, as identified by the third party pricing service used by the Manager, prior to the time when the
Funds assets are valued. If the last sale price is unavailable, the security is valued at the most recent official closing price on the principal exchange on which it is traded. If the last sales price or official closing price for a foreign
security is not available, the security is valued at the mean between the bid and asked price per the exchange or, if not available from the exchange, obtained from two dealers. If bid and asked prices are not available from either the exchange or
two dealers, the security is valued by using one of the following methodologies (listed in order of priority); (1) using a bid from the exchange, (2) the mean between the bid and asked price as provided by a single dealer, or (3) a
bid from a single dealer.
Shares of a registered investment company that are not traded on an exchange are valued at that
investment companys net asset value per share.
Corporate and government debt securities (of U.S. or foreign issuers) and
municipal debt securities, event-linked bonds, loans, mortgage-backed securities, collateralized mortgage obligations, and asset-backed securities are valued at the mean between the bid and asked prices utilizing evaluated
prices obtained from third party pricing services or broker-dealers who may use matrix pricing methods to determine the evaluated prices.
Short-term money market type debt securities with a remaining maturity of sixty days or less are valued at cost adjusted by the amortization of discount or premium to maturity (amortized cost), which
approximates market value. Short-term debt securities with a

remaining maturity in excess of sixty days are valued at the mean between the bid and asked prices utilizing evaluated prices obtained from third party pricing services or
broker-dealers.
A description of the standard inputs that may generally be considered by the third party pricing vendors in determining their
evaluated prices is provided below.

|
|
Security Type
|
|
Standard inputs generally considered by third-party
pricing vendors
|
Corporate debt, government debt, municipal, mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities

|

|
Information obtained from market participants regarding reported trade data and broker-dealer price quotations.

If a market value or price cannot be determined for a security using the methodologies described above, or if, in the
good faith opinion of the Manager, the market value or price obtained does not constitute a readily available market quotation, or a significant event has occurred that would materially affect the value of the security the
security is fair valued either (i) by a standardized fair valuation methodology applicable to the security type or the significant event as previously approved by the Valuation Committee and the Funds Board or (ii) as determined in
good faith by the Managers Valuation Committee. The Valuation Committee considers all relevant facts that are reasonably available, through either public information or information available to the Manager, when determining the fair value of a
security. Fair value determinations by the Manager are subject to review, approval and ratification by the Funds Board at its next regularly scheduled meeting covering the calendar quarter in which the fair valuation was determined. Those fair
valuation standardized methodologies include, but are not limited to, valuing securities at the last sale price or initially at cost and subsequently adjusting the value based on: changes in company specific fundamentals, changes in an appropriate
securities index, or changes in the value of similar securities which may be further adjusted for any discounts related to security-specific resale restrictions. When possible, such methodologies use observable market inputs such as unadjusted
quoted prices of similar securities, observable interest rates, currency rates and yield curves. The methodologies used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities nor can it be
assured that the Fund can obtain the fair value assigned to a security if it were to sell the security.
To assess the continuing
appropriateness of security valuations, the Manager, or its third party service provider who is subject to oversight by the Manager, regularly compares prior day prices, prices on comparable securities, and sale prices to the current day prices and
challenges those prices exceeding certain tolerance levels with the third party pricing service

or broker source. For those securities valued by fair valuations, whether through a standardized fair valuation methodology or a fair valuation determination, the Valuation Committee reviews and
affirms the reasonableness of the valuations based on such methodologies and fair valuation determinations on a regular basis after considering all relevant information that is reasonably available.
Classifications
Each investment asset or
liability of the Fund is assigned a level at measurement date based on the significance and source of the inputs to its valuation. Various data inputs are used in determining the value of each of the Funds investments as of the reporting
period end. These data inputs are categorized in the following hierarchy under applicable financial accounting standards:
1)
|
|
Level 1unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (including securities actively traded on a securities exchange)
|
2)
|
|
Level 2inputs other than unadjusted quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (such as unadjusted quoted prices for similar assets and market
corroborated inputs such as interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risks, etc.)
|
3)
|
|
Level 3significant unobservable inputs (including the Managers own judgments about assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or
liability).
|
The inputs used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in
those securities.

Additionally, Class Y shares are subject to minimum fees of $10,000 annually for assets of $10 million or more. The Class Y

Under its General Distributors Agreement with the Fund, OppenheimerFunds Distributor, Inc. (the

Service Plan for Class A Shares.
The Fund has adopted a Service Plan (the Plan) for Class A shares under Rule 12b-1 of the
Investment Company Act of 1940. Under the Plan, the Fund reimburses the Distributor for a portion of its costs incurred for services provided to accounts that hold Class A shares. Reimbursement is made periodically at an annual rate of up to
0.25% of the daily net assets of Class A shares of the Fund. The Distributor currently uses all of those fees to pay dealers, brokers, banks and other financial institutions periodically for providing personal service and maintenance of
accounts of their customers that hold Class A shares. Any unreimbursed expenses the Distributor incurs with respect to Class A shares in any fiscal year cannot be recovered in subsequent periods. Fees incurred by the Fund under the Plan
are detailed in the Statement of Operations.

The Fund has adopted

and servicing accounts. Under the Plans, the Fund pays the Distributor an annual asset-based sales charge of 0.75% on Class B and Class C shares daily net assets and 0.25% on Class N shares daily net assets. The Distributor also receives a service
fee of 0.25% per year under each plan. If

6. Pending Litigation
Since 2009, a number of class
action lawsuits have been pending in federal courts against OppenheimerFunds, Inc., the Funds investment advisor (the Manager), OppenheimerFunds Distributor, Inc., the Funds principal underwriter and distributor (the
Distributor), and certain funds (but not including the Fund) advised by the Manager and distributed by the Distributor (the Defendant Funds). Several of these lawsuits also name as defendants certain officers and current and
former trustees of the respective Defendant Funds. The lawsuits raise claims under federal securities law and allege, among other things, that the disclosure documents of the respective Defendant Funds contained misrepresentations and omissions and
that the respective Defendant Funds investment policies were not followed. The plaintiffs in these actions seek unspecified damages, equitable relief and awards of attorneys fees and litigation expenses. The Defendant Funds Boards
of Trustees have also engaged counsel to represent the Funds and the present and former Independent Trustees named in those suits.
Other class action and individual lawsuits have been filed since 2008 in various state and federal courts against the Manager and certain of
its affiliates by investors seeking to recover investments they allegedly lost as a result of the Ponzi scheme run by Bernard L. Madoff and his firm, Bernard L. Madoff Investment Securities, LLC (BLMIS). Plaintiffs in these
suits allege that they suffered losses as a result of their investments in several funds managed by an affiliate of the Manager and assert a variety of claims, including breach of fiduciary duty, fraud, negligent misrepresentation, unjust
enrichment, and violation of federal and state securities laws and regulations, among others. They seek unspecified damages, equitable relief and awards of attorneys fees and litigation expenses. Neither the Distributor, nor any of the
Oppenheimer mutual funds, their independent trustees or directors are named as defendants in these lawsuits. None of the Oppenheimer mutual funds invested in any funds or accounts managed by Madoff or BLMIS. On February 28, 2011, a stipulation
of partial settlement of three groups of consolidated putative class action lawsuits relating to these matters was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. On August 19, 2011, the court entered an order and final
judgment approving the settlement as fair, reasonable and adequate. In September 2011, certain parties filed notices of appeal from the courts order approving the settlement. The settlement does not resolve other outstanding lawsuits
against the Manager and its affiliates relating to BLMIS.
On April 16, 2010, a lawsuit was filed in New York state court
against the Manager, an affiliate of the Manager and AAArdvark IV Funding Limited (AAArdvark IV), an entity advised by the Managers affiliate, in connection with investments made by the plaintiffs in AAArdvark IV. Plaintiffs allege
breach of contract against the defendants and seek compensatory damages, costs and disbursements, including attorney fees. On July 15, 2011, a lawsuit was filed in New York state court against the Manager, an affiliate of the Manager and
AAArdvark Funding Limited (AAArdvark I), an entity advised by the Managers affiliate, in connection with investments made by the plaintiffs in AAArdvark I. The complaint alleges

breach of contract against the defendants and seeks compensatory damages, costs and disbursements, including attorney fees. On November 9, 2011, a lawsuit was filed in New York state court
against the Manager, an affiliate of the Manager and AAArdvark XS Funding Limited (AAArdvark XS), an entity advised by the Managers affiliate, in connection with investments made by the plaintiffs in AAArdvark XS. The complaint
alleges breach of contract against the defendants and seeks compensatory damages, costs and disbursements, including attorney fees.
The Manager believes the lawsuits and appeals described above are without legal merit and, with the exception of actions it has settled, is
defending against them vigorously. While it is premature to render any opinion as to the outcome in these lawsuits, or whether any costs that the Defendant Funds may bear in defending the suits might not be reimbursed by insurance, the Manager
believes that these suits should not impair the ability of the Manager or the Distributor to perform their respective duties to the Fund, and that the outcome of all of the suits together should not have any material effect on the operations of any
of the Oppenheimer mutual funds.

REPORT OF
INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
The Board of Trustees and Shareholders of Oppenheimer Small- & Mid-Cap Growth Fund:
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Oppenheimer Small- & Mid-Cap Growth Fund, including the statement of investments, as of October 31, 2012, and the related
statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the years in the two-year period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the years in the five-year period then ended. These financial
statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Funds management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards
require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the
amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of October 31, 2012, by correspondence with the custodian and transfer agent. An audit also includes assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial
position of Oppenheimer Small- & Mid-Cap Growth Fund as of October 31, 2012, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the years in the two-year period then ended, and the
financial highlights for each of the years in the five-year period then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

BOARD APPROVAL OF THE FUNDS INVESTMENT
ADVISORY AGREEMENT
Unaudited
Each year, the Board of Trustees (the Board), including a majority of the independent Trustees, is required to determine whether to renew the
Funds investment advisory agreement (the Agreement). The Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, requires that the Board request and evaluate, and that the Manager provide, such information as may be reasonably necessary to
evaluate the terms of the Agreement. The Board employs an independent consultant to prepare a report that provides information, including comparative information that the Board requests for that purpose. In addition to in-person meetings focused on
this evaluation, the Board receives information throughout the year regarding Fund services, fees, expenses and performance.
The
Manager and the independent consultant provided information to the Board on the following factors: (i) the nature, quality and extent of the Managers services, (ii) the investment performance of the Fund and the Manager,
(iii) the fees and expenses of the Fund, including comparative expense information, (iv) the profitability of the Manager and its affiliates, including an analysis of the cost of providing services, (v) whether economies of scale are
realized as the Fund grows and whether fee levels reflect these economies of scale for Fund investors and (vi) other benefits to the Manager from its relationship with the Fund. The Board was aware that there are alternatives to retaining the
Manager.
Outlined below is a summary of the principal information considered by the Board as well as the Boards
conclusions.
Nature, Quality and Extent of Services.
The Board considered information about the nature, quality and extent of the services provided to the Fund and information regarding the Managers key personnel who provide such services. The
Managers duties include providing the Fund with the services of the portfolio manager and the Managers investment team, who provide research, analysis and other advisory services in regard to the Funds investments; securities
trading services; oversight of third-party service providers; monitoring compliance with applicable Fund policies and procedures and adherence to the Funds investment restrictions; and risk management. The Manager is responsible for providing
certain administrative services to the Fund as well. Those services include providing and supervising all administrative and clerical personnel who are necessary in order to provide effective corporate administration for the Fund; compiling and
maintaining records with respect to the Funds operations; preparing and filing reports required by the Securities and Exchange Commission; preparing periodic reports regarding the operations of the Fund for its shareholders; preparing proxy
materials for shareholder meetings; and preparing the registration statements required by Federal and state securities laws for the sale of the Funds shares. The Manager also provides the Fund with office space, facilities and equipment.
The Board also considered the quality of the services provided and the quality of the Managers resources that are available
to the Fund. The Board took account of the fact that the Manager has had over fifty years of experience as an investment adviser and that its assets under management rank it among the top mutual fund managers in the United States. The Board
evaluated the Managers advisory, administrative, accounting, legal, compliance services and risk management, and information the Board has received regarding the experience and professional qualifications of the Managers key personnel
and the size and functions of its staff. In its evaluation of the quality of the portfolio management services provided, the Board considered the experience of Ronald Zibelli, the portfolio manager for the

Fund, and the Managers investment team and analysts. The Board members also considered the totality of their experiences with the Manager as directors or trustees of the Fund and other
funds advised by the Manager. The Board considered information regarding the quality of services provided by affiliates of the Manager, which its members have become knowledgeable about in connection with the renewal of the Funds service
agreements. The Board concluded, in light of the Managers experience, reputation, personnel, operations and resources that the Fund benefits from the services provided under the Agreement.
Investment Performance of the Manager and the Fund.
Throughout the year, the Manager provided information on the investment performance of the Fund and the Manager, including comparative performance information. The Board also reviewed information, prepared
by the Manager and by the independent consultant, comparing the Funds historical performance to relevant market indices and to the performance of other retail front-end load and no-load mid-cap growth funds. The Board noted that the
Funds one-year and five-year performance was better than its peer group median although its three-year and ten-year performance was below its peer group median.
Costs of Services by the Manager.
The Board reviewed the fees paid to the Manager and the other
expenses borne by the Fund. The Board also considered the comparability of the fees charged and the services provided to the Fund to the fees and services for other clients or accounts advised by the Manager. The independent consultant provided
comparative data in regard to the fees and expenses of the Fund and other retail front-end load mid-cap growth funds with comparable asset levels and distribution features. The Board noted that the Funds actual and contractual management fees
and total expenses were higher than its expense group median and its expense group average.
Economies of Scale and Profits Realized by the Manager.
The Board considered information regarding the Managers costs in serving as the
Funds investment adviser, including the costs associated with the personnel and systems necessary to manage the Fund, and information regarding the Managers profitability from its relationship with the Fund. The Board reviewed whether
the Manager may realize economies of scale in managing and supporting the Fund. The Board noted that the Fund currently has management fee breakpoints, which are intended to share with Fund shareholders economies of scale that may exist as the
Funds assets grow.
Other Benefits to the Manager.
In addition to considering the profits realized by the Manager, the Board considered information that was provided regarding the direct and indirect benefits the Manager receives as a result of its
relationship with the Fund, including compensation paid to the Managers affiliates and research provided to the Manager in connection with permissible brokerage arrangements (soft dollar arrangements). The Board also considered that the
Manager must be able to pay and retain experienced professional personnel at competitive rates to provide quality services to the Fund.
Conclusions.
These factors were also considered by the independent Trustees meeting separately
from the full Board, assisted by experienced counsel to the Fund and to the independent Trustees. Fund counsel and the independent Trustees counsel are independent of the Manager within the meaning and intent of the Securities and Exchange
Commission Rules.

Based on its review of the information it received and its evaluations described above, the
Board, including a majority of the independent Trustees, decided to continue the Agreement. In addition, the Board, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, approved the restructuring of the Funds investment advisory arrangement so
that, effective January 1, 2013, (i) OFI Global Asset Management, Inc. (OFI Global), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Manager, will serve as the investment adviser to the Fund in place of the Manager under a Restated Advisory
Agreement (Restated Advisory Agreement), and (ii) OFI Global will enter into a Sub-Advisory Agreement (Sub-Advisory Agreement) with the Manager to provide investment sub-advisory services to the Fund. OFI Global will pay
the Manager a percentage of the net investment advisory fee (after all applicable waivers have been deducted) that it receives from the Fund. The Agreement will continue until the earlier of September 30, 2013 or the effective date of the
Restated Advisory Agreement between the Fund and OFI Global. The Restated Advisory Agreement and Sub-Advisory Agreement will continue until September 30, 2013.
In arriving at its decisions, the Board did not single out any factor or factors as being more important than others, but considered all of the above information, and considered the terms and conditions of
the Agreement, Restated Advisory Agreement and Sub-Advisory Agreement, including the management fees, in light of all of the surrounding circumstances.

HouseholdingDelivery
of Shareholder Documents
This is to inform you about OppenheimerFunds householding policy. If more than one member of your
household maintains an account in a particular fund, OppenheimerFunds will mail only one copy of the funds prospectus (or, if available, the funds summary prospectus), annual and semiannual report and privacy policy. The consolidation of
these mailings, called householding, benefits your fund through reduced mailing expense, and benefits you by reducing the volume of mail you receive from OppenheimerFunds. Householding does not affect the delivery of your account statements.
Please note that we will continue to household these mailings for as long as you remain an OppenheimerFunds shareholder, unless
you request otherwise. If you prefer to receive multiple copies of these materials, please call us at
1.800.CALL-OPP (225-5677).
You may
also notify us in writing or via email. We will begin sending you individual copies of the prospectus (or, if available, the summary prospectus), reports and privacy policy within 30 days of receiving your request to stop householding.

All transactions, including redemptions, exchanges and purchases, are secured by SSL and 128-bit encryption. SSL is used to establish a secure connection
between your PC and OppenheimerFunds server. It transmits information in an encrypted and scrambled format.

Encryption is achieved through an electronic scrambling technology that uses a key to code and then decode the data. Encryption acts like the
cable converter box you may have on your television set. It scrambles data with a secret code so that no one can make sense of it while it is being transmitted. When the data reaches its destination, the same software unscrambles the data.
