C000022005 Investment Objective and Strategy

SA Columbia Technology Portfolio describes its objective and strategy as follows, from its latest prospectus filed with the SEC by Sunamerica Series Trust.

Investment objective

The Portfolios investment goal is capital appreciation.

Principal investment strategy

The Portfolio attempts to achieve its goal by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets in equity securities that demonstrate the potential for capital appreciation, issued by companies the subadviser believes are positioned to benefit from involvement in technology and technology-related industries worldwide. The Portfolio will invest principally in common stocks of companies of all sizes, and expects to invest a significant percentage of its assets in small- and mid-cap companies. The companies in which the Portfolio invests include those that the subadviser expects will generate a majority of their revenues from the development, advancement, use or sale of technology or technology-related products, processes or services. The Portfolio may invest in companies operating in any industry, including but not limited to the biotechnology, cable and network broadcasting, information technology, communications, computer hardware, computer services and software, consumer electronics, defense, medical technology, environmental, health care, pharmaceutical, semiconductor, and technology services industries, including the internet.

The Portfolio may invest in companies in all stages of corporate development, ranging from new companies developing a promising technology or scientific advancement to established companies with a record of producing breakthrough products and technologies from research and development efforts. The Portfolio may also invest in foreign securities, including the securities of issuers located in emerging markets, as well as securities denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar, depositary receipts, convertible securities, preferred stock, rights, warrants and investment-grade and comparable debt securities. The subadviser seeks to identify those technology companies that it believes have the greatest prospects for future growth, regardless of their countries of origin. The subadviser uses an investment style that combines research into individual company attractiveness with macro analysis.

This means that the subadviser uses extensive in-depth research to identify attractive technology companies around the world, while seeking to identify particularly strong technology and technology-related sectors and/or factors within regions or specific countries that may affect investment opportunities. In selecting individual securities, the subadviser looks for companies that it believes display one or more of the following: Above-average growth prospects; High profit margins; Attractive valuations relative to earnings forecasts or other valuation criteria ( e.g. , return on equity); Quality management and equity ownership by executives; Unique competitive advantages ( e.g. , market share, proprietary products); or Potential for improvement in overall operations. In evaluating whether to sell a security, the subadviser considers, among other factors, whether in its view: Its target price has been reached; Its earnings are disappointing; Its revenue growth has slowed; Its underlying fundamentals have deteriorated; or If the subadviser believes that negative country or regional factors may affect a companys outlook.
