DEAR SHAREHOLDER,
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I'd like to welcome you to the premier issue of our newly redesigned
shareholder reports. As you can see, we've changed the format to allow easier
access to the information you need to monitor your investments. Some notable
additions are "at-a-glance" report highlights and charts that let you quickly
assess how your Fund has performed. On the following pages, your portfolio team
discuss their current investment thinking, your Fund's strategies, and
performance. Before these commentaries, I'd like to share a few global
observations.
As we consider the world's financial markets over the past six months,
some global trends emerge. For example, inflation has hit its lowest level in
three decades worldwide, which has helped spur many bullish financial markets.
The United States has been a beneficiary of this low-inflation environment, as
well as of a strong dollar, robust corporate earnings and a healthy economy.
However, many financial analysts are now concerned that the United States has
reached a point in the business cycle where earnings could decline because
companies are unable to further reduce costs.
On the other hand, a wave of corporate restructuring throughout Europe
has resulted in some exciting changes and opportunities. Because a similar
restructuring took place in the United States ten years ago, European companies
have been able to enjoy the benefit of hindsight by following our footsteps.
Latin America, too, has begun to shift its economies more toward the U.S.
capitalist model and has reported positive earnings growth along the way.
With major changes occurring in today's economies around the globe,
it's more important than ever to maintain a diversified portfolio across
different countries and market sectors. Now is the time to speak to your
financial adviser to ensure that your assets are allocated properly, so you
have the opportunity to benefit from investments in both domestic and
international funds. It's important to remember that investing abroad can
involve greater risk and expenses--including political and economic
uncertainties--and should be undertaken with a long-term approach in mind.
To keep in touch with our views on the markets, visit our website,
WWW.OPPENHEIMERFUNDS.COM, where you can access your account information and
fund performance data, 24 hours a day. The site also features prospectuses,
timely market updates and insightful commentaries. Our new shareholder reports
and presence on the Internet are just two examples of our commitment to keeping
you well informed.
Thank you for your confidence in OppenheimerFunds, The Right Way to
Invest. We look forward to helping you reach your investment goals in the
future.
Sincerely,
/s/ Bridget A. Macaskill

PERFORMANCE UPDATE
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Oppenheimer Enterprise Fund's Class A shares produced a total rate of return,
before sales charges, of 17.88% for the fiscal year ended 8/31/97.2 This past
year was a difficult time for small-cap funds in general, primarily because
investors showed a preference for larger blue-chip companies during the first
eight of the 12 months. However, since late April, small-cap stocks have
experienced a significant rebound. We expect that over time, the stocks in this
Fund may produce superior growth.

"SINCE LATE APRIL, SMALL-CAP STOCKS HAVE EXPERIENCED A SIGNIFICANT REBOUND."
AN INTERVIEW WITH YOUR FUND'S MANAGERS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM?
For the one-year period ended August 31, 1997, Oppenheimer Enterprise Fund's
Class A shares had a total rate of return, before sales charges, of 17.88%(1).
As you know, the Fund emphasizes investments in "micro-cap" companies, that is,
companies whose market capitalization is under $200 million. Market
capitalization equals a company's stock price multiplied by the number of
shares outstanding. We are trying to buy early-stage companies that represent
sizable growth opportunities.
WHAT FACTORS AFFECTED YOUR PERFORMANCE?
From August 1996 through April 1997, and to a lesser extent since then,
investors have shown a preference for larger, blue-chip multinational
corporations. If you analyzed companies in terms of size, the top tier
outperformed the second tier, which outperformed the third tier, and on down
the list. So, the Fund was adversely affected by its concentration in a sector
of the marketplace that was generally out of favor for the first eight of the
last 12 months. However, the downside pressure on small and micro-cap stocks
reached a climax in late April, and since then we've experienced a significant
rebound.
This past year was also characterized by another macro trend: the
market's preference for "value stocks" as opposed to "growth stocks."
Oppenheimer Enterprise Fund is a growth-oriented fund, which means we seek
companies for the portfolio that are achieving strong sales and earnings gains;
in contrast, value-oriented funds emphasize stocks considered by their managers
to be underpriced.

TEAM (L TO R)
Jay Tracey (Fund Manager)
Paul LaRocco
The market goes through cycles in which one style is favored over another. Over
the past 12 months, value stocks outperformed growth stocks, which hindered our
performance until recently. However, since May, growth stocks have shown
renewed vigor, which is an encouraging sign going forward.
WHAT STOCKS DID WELL DURING THE YEAR?
One of the strongest groups over the past 12 months has been energy. We owned
stock in Cal Dive International, an oil services company. Cal Dive is a
provider of subsea construction and completion services. One of the strongest
segments of the economy lately has been offshore drilling. A great deal of
money is being spent by major oil companies to explore and produce oil from
under water--whether it's the North Sea or the Gulf of Mexico. Typically, it
takes a while to identify prospects, perform seismic analysis and then drill.
Once drilling has taken place and oil and gas discovered, the wells need to be
"completed." That's when companies like Cal Dive provide their underwater
robots and other equipment needed to complete these wells, by tying them to
production lines so that oil can be distributed.

"ONE OF THE STRONGEST GROUPS OVER THE PAST 12 MONTHS HAS BEEN ENERGY..."
AN INTERVIEW WITH YOUR FUND'S MANAGERS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Another solid performer for the Fund was Patterson Energy, Inc. Patterson is a
drilling company, operating primarily in Texas and New Mexico, that provides
onshore contract drilling to oil and gas customers. Patterson owns 27 drilling
rigs and can drill to depths of 22,000 feet below the land surface. Drilling
activity has been strong lately and the supply of rigs has been constrained.
Beginning about two years ago, owners of everything from drill pipe to drilling
rigs to other oil service equipment have been able to charge much more for the
services they provide. In addition, energy demand has been expanding at home
and abroad due to strengthening economies in many parts of the world.
WHAT OTHER COMPANIES PERFORMED WELL FOR THE FUND?
Advanced Technology Materials has been a very good holding. This company serves
the semiconductor industry, producing "point of use" environmental equipment.
At various points along a semiconductor production line, equipment is needed
that will vent the toxic airborne material in an environmentally acceptable way
because the chemicals used in processing semiconductor chips are highly toxic.
Advanced Technology Materials' semiconductor industry customers are doing very
well, and, as a result, the suppliers to that customer base have experienced
the same dramatic growth in sales and earnings.
CAN YOU GIVE ME ANOTHER EXAMPLE OF A HOLDING THAT OUTPERFORMED?
Schlotzsky's, Inc. has also been a very positive holding. They're a franchiser
of quick-service restaurants, operating 445 franchise stores in 37 states. The
company, known for its high-quality bread, continues to surprise Wall Street
analysts with stronger-than-expected sales and earnings.

"...PARTICULARLY EXPLORATION AND OFFSHORE DRILLING."
WHAT AREAS WERE DISAPPOINTING DURING THE YEAR?
Healthcare has been a difficult industry in the past year, primarily due to
concern over Medicare/Medicaid reimbursement. Those concerns are still with us
today. As the government searches for ways to cut expenditures, Medicare is
vulnerable, and this puts a cloud over all healthcare service providers.
Another area of disappointment was retailing, which suffered from lackluster
consumer spending for several months. Recently, however, the outlook for
retailers has improved with forecasts of a strong upcoming Christmas season.
WHAT IS YOUR OUTLOOK?
Oppenheimer Enterprise Fund's holdings reached a level of relative valuation
that is very attractive compared to the rest of the market. On the average, the
Fund's companies are currently selling at a price-to-earnings ratio only
modestly above that of the S&P 500 Index, but with earnings growth far above
that of the index. And, the earnings of the companies in our portfolio are
expected to grow at a much higher rate than the S&P 500. Over time, we believe
that the performance of the stocks in the Fund will reflect that superior
growth.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
================================================================================
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Oppenheimer Enterprise Fund (the Fund) is registered under the Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended, as a diversified, open-end management
investment company. The Fund's investment objective is to seek capital
appreciation, primarily through investment in equity securities. The Fund's
investment adviser is OppenheimerFunds, Inc. (the Manager). The Fund offers
Class A, Class B and Class C shares. Class B and Class C shares may be subject
to a contingent deferred sales charge. All three classes of shares have
identical rights to earnings, assets and voting privileges, except that each
class has its own distribution and/or service plan, expenses directly
attributable to that class and exclusive voting rights with respect to matters
affecting that class. Class B shares will automatically convert to Class A
shares six years after the date of purchase. The following is a summary of
significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
INVESTMENT VALUATION. Portfolio securities are valued at the close of the New
York Stock Exchange on each trading day. Listed and unlisted securities for
which such information is regularly reported are valued at the last sale price
of the day or, in the absence of sales, at values based on the closing bid or
the last sale price on the prior trading day. Long-term and short-term
"non-money market" debt securities are valued by a portfolio pricing service
approved by the Board of Trustees. Such securities which cannot be valued by an
approved portfolio pricing service are valued using dealer-supplied valuations
provided the Manager is satisfied that the firm rendering the quotes is
reliable and that the quotes reflect current market value, or are valued under
consistently applied procedures established by the Board of Trustees to
determine fair value in good faith. Short-term "money market type" debt
securities having a remaining maturity of 60 days or less are valued at cost
(or last determined market value) adjusted for amortization to maturity of any
premium or discount.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION. The accounting records of the Fund are maintained
in U.S. dollars. Prices of securities denominated in foreign currencies are
translated into U.S. dollars at the closing rates of exchange. Amounts related
to the purchase and sale of foreign securities and investment income are
translated at the rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such
transactions.
The effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on
investments is separately identified from the fluctuations arising from changes
in market values of securities held and reported with all other foreign
currency gains and losses in the Fund's Statement of Operations.
20 Oppenheimer Enterprise Fund
<PAGE> 21
================================================================================
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS. The Fund requires the custodian to take possession, to
have legally segregated in the Federal Reserve Book Entry System or to have
segregated within the custodian's vault, all securities held as collateral for
repurchase agreements. The market value of the underlying securities is
required to be at least 102% of the resale price at the time of purchase. If
the seller of the agreement defaults and the value of the collateral declines,
or if the seller enters an insolvency proceeding, realization of the value of
the collateral by the Fund may be delayed or limited.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ALLOCATION OF INCOME, EXPENSES, AND GAINS AND LOSSES. Income, expenses (other
than those attributable to a specific class) and gains and losses are allocated
daily 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 continue to comply with provisions of the
Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to
distribute all of its taxable income, including any net realized gain on
investments not offset by loss carryovers, to shareholders. Therefore, no
federal income or excise tax provision is required.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
TRUSTEES' FEES AND EXPENSES. The Fund has adopted a nonfunded retirement plan
for the Fund's independent trustees. Benefits are based on years of service and
fees paid to each trustee during the years of service. During the year ended
August 31, 1997, a provision of $32,270 was made for the Fund's projected
benefit obligations and payments of $1,509 were made to retired trustees,
resulting in an accumulated liability of $32,929, at August 31, 1997.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS. Dividends and distributions to shareholders are
recorded on the ex-dividend date.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ORGANIZATION COSTS. The Manager advanced $13,000 for organization and start-up
costs of the Fund. Such expenses are being amortized over a five-year period
from the date operations commenced. In the event that all or part of the
Manager's initial investment in shares of the Fund is withdrawn during the
amortization period, the redemption proceeds will be reduced to reimburse the
Fund for any unamortized expenses, in the same ratio as the number of shares
redeemed bears to the number of initial shares outstanding at the time of such
redemption.
21 Oppenheimer Enterprise Fund
<PAGE> 22
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
================================================================================
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
CLASSIFICATION OF DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS. Net investment income (loss)
and net realized gain (loss) may differ for financial statement and tax
purposes primarily because of the recognition of certain foreign currency gains
(losses) as ordinary income (loss) for tax purposes. The character of the
distributions made during the year from net investment income or net realized
gains may differ from its ultimate characterization for federal income tax
purposes. Also, due to timing of dividend distributions, the fiscal year in
which amounts are distributed may differ from the fiscal year in which the
income or realized gain was recorded by the Fund.
During the period ended August 31, 1997, the Fund adjusted the
classification of distributions to shareholders to reflect the differences
between financial statement amounts and distributions determined in accordance
with income tax regulations. Accordingly, during the period ended August 31,
1997, amounts have been reclassified to reflect a decrease in accumulated net
investment loss of $962,205. Accumulated net realized gain on investments was
decreased by the same amount.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
OTHER. Investment transactions are accounted for on the date the investments
are purchased or sold (trade date) and dividend income is recorded on the
ex-dividend date. Discount on securities purchased is amortized over the life
of the respective securities, in accordance with federal income tax
requirements. Realized gains and losses on investments and options written and
unrealized appreciation and depreciation are determined on an identified cost
basis, which is the same basis used for federal income tax purposes.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles 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 income and expenses during the reporting
period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

3. UNREALIZED GAINS AND LOSSES ON INVESTMENTS
At August 31, 1997, net unrealized appreciation on investments of $18,517,552
was composed of gross appreciation of $21,866,150, and gross depreciation of
$3,348,598.
================================================================================
4. MANAGEMENT FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
Management fees paid to the Manager were in accordance with the investment
advisory agreement with the Fund which provides for an annual fee of 0.75% of
the first $200 million of average annual net assets, 0.72% of the next $200
million, 0.69% of the next $200 million, 0.66% of the next $200 million, and
0.60% of average annual net assets in excess of $800 million.
For the year ended August 31, 1997, commissions (sales charges
paid by investors) on sales of Class A shares totaled $160,348, of which
$39,980 was retained by OppenheimerFunds Distributor, Inc. (OFDI), a subsidiary
of the Manager, as general distributor, and by an affiliated broker/dealer.
Sales charges advanced to broker/dealers by OFDI on sales of the Fund's Class B
and Class C shares totaled $164,270 and $9,473, respectively, of which $9,198
was paid to an affiliated broker/dealer for Class B. During the year ended
August 31, 1997, OFDI received contingent deferred sales charges of $52,498 and
$3,292, respectively, upon redemption of Class B and Class C shares as
reimbursement for sales commissions advanced by OFDI at the time of sale of
such shares.
OppenheimerFunds Services (OFS), a division of the Manager, is
the transfer and shareholder servicing agent for the Fund and for other
registered investment companies. OFS's total costs of providing such services
are allocated ratably to these companies.
24 Oppenheimer Enterprise Fund
<PAGE> 25
================================================================================
The Fund has adopted a Service Plan for Class A shares to reimburse OFDI for a
portion of its costs incurred in connection with the personal service and
maintenance of shareholder accounts that hold Class A shares. Reimbursement is
made quarterly at an annual rate that may not exceed 0.25% of the average
annual net assets of Class A shares of the Fund. OFDI uses the service fee to
reimburse brokers, dealers, banks and other financial institutions quarterly
for providing personal service and maintenance of accounts of their customers
that hold Class A shares. During the year ended August 31, 1997, OFDI paid
$2,345 to an affiliated broker/dealer as reimbursement for Class A personal
service and maintenance expenses.
The Fund has adopted Distribution and Service Plans for Class B
and Class C shares to compensate OFDI for its services and costs in
distributing Class B and Class C shares and servicing accounts. Under the
Plans, the Fund pays OFDI an annual asset-based sales charge of 0.75% per year
on Class B shares and Class C shares, as compensation for sales commissions
paid from its own resources at the time of sale and associated financing costs.
OFDI also receives a service fee of 0.25% per year as compensation for costs
incurred in connection with the personal service and maintenance of accounts
that hold shares of the Fund, including amounts paid to brokers, dealers, banks
and other financial institutions. Both fees are computed on the average annual
net assets of Class B and Class C shares, determined as of the close of each
regular business day. During the year ended August 31, 1997, OFDI retained
$174,549 and $23,136, respectively, as compensation for Class B and Class C
sales commissions and service fee advances, as well as financing costs. If
either Plan is terminated by the Fund, the Board of Trustees may allow the Fund
to continue payments of the asset-based sales charge to OFDI for distributing
shares before the Plan was terminated. At August 31, 1997, OFDI had incurred
unreimbursed expenses of $544,471 for Class B and $44,775 for Class C.

5. ILLIQUID AND RESTRICTED SECURITIES
At August 31, 1997, investments in securities included issues that are illiquid
or restricted. Restricted securities are often purchased in private placement
transactions, are not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, may have
contractual restrictions on resale, and are valued under methods approved by
the Board of Trustees as reflecting fair value. A security may be considered
illiquid if it lacks a readily-available market or if its valuation has not
changed for a certain period of time. The Fund intends to invest no more than
10% of its net assets (determined at the time of purchase and reviewed
periodically) in illiquid or restricted securities. Certain restricted
securities, eligible for resale to qualified institutional investors, are not
subject to that limit. The aggregate value of illiquid or restricted securities
subject to this limitation at August 31, 1997 was $1,941,562, which represents
2.31% of the Fund's net assets. Information concerning restricted securities is
as follows:

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
================================================================================
The Board of Trustees and Shareholders of
Oppenheimer Enterprise Fund:
We have audited the accompanying statements of investments and assets and
liabilities of Oppenheimer Enterprise Fund as of August 31, 1997, and the
related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of
changes in net assets for the year then ended and the period ended August 31,
1996, and the financial highlights for the year ended August 31, 1997 and the
period from November 7, 1995 (commencement of operations) to August 31, 1996.
These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of
the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted
auditing standards. 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 August 31, 1997 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers;
and where confirmations were not received from brokers, we performed other
auditing procedures. 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 Enterprise Fund as of August 31, 1997, the results of
its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for the
year ended August 31, 1997 and the period ended August 31, 1996, and the
financial highlights for the year ended August 31, 1997 and the period from
November 7, 1995 (commencement of operations) to August 31, 1996, in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles.

FEDERAL INCOME TAX INFORMATION (Unaudited)
================================================================================
In early 1998 shareholders will receive information regarding all dividends and
distributions paid to them by the Fund during calendar year 1997. Regulations
of the U.S. Treasury Department require the Fund to report this information to
the Internal Revenue Service.
Dividends paid by the Fund during the year ended August 31, 1997
which are not designated as capital gain distributions should be multiplied by
4.72% to arrive at the net amount eligible for the corporate dividend-received
deduction.
The foregoing information is presented to assist shareholders in
reporting distributions received from the Fund to the Internal Revenue Service.
Because of the complexity of the federal regulations which may affect your
individual tax return and the many variations in state and local tax
regulations, we recommend that you consult your tax adviser for specific
guidance.
