OPPENHEIMER ENTERPRISE FUND
Supplement dated September 15, 2000 to the
Prospectus dated December 17, 1999
The Prospectus is changed as follows:
1. This supplement replaces the Fund's prospectus supplement dated
June 26, 2000.
2. Effective September 15, 2000, the Fund's Distributor, OppenheimerFunds
Distributor, Inc., will accept orders to purchase shares of the Fund from new
investors, whether such purchase orders are submitted by brokers, dealers or
other financial institutions, or directly by investors, or by exchange
requests from a shareholder owning shares of another Oppenheimer fund (or by
a broker of record acting on behalf of a shareholder).
In addition, on September 15, 2000, the $5,000 per account per month limit is
removed for additional purchases of shares of the Fund by existing
shareholders that owned shares of the Fund on or before July 1, 1999.
3. The first paragraph on the front cover is revised to read as follows:
"Oppenheimer Enterprise Fund is a mutual fund. It seeks capital appreciation
to make your investment grow. It emphasizes investments in common stocks of
companies that have growth potential."
4. The paragraph captioned "What does the Fund Invest In?" on page 3 is
revised to read as follows:
WHAT DOES THE FUND INVEST IN? The Fund invests mainly in common stocks
of companies with higher growth rates. These may be newer companies or
established companies of any capitalization range that the portfolio
manager believes have favorable growth prospects. The Fund previously
focused on small-cap issuers, but may now invest without limit in
companies in any capitalization range. The Fund focuses mainly on
domestic companies, but may buy foreign stocks as well.
5. In the paragraph captioned "How Does The Portfolio Manager Decide What
Securities To Buy or Sell?" on page 3, the four bullet points are
revised to read as follows:
o Companies with management that has a proven ability to handle rapid
growth
o Companies with innovative products or services o Companies with superior
earnings and revenue growth o Companies with growth rates that the portfolio
manager believes are sustainable
6. In the paragraph captioned "Who is the Fund Designed For?" on page 3,
the second
sentence is revised to read as follows: "Investors in the Fund
should be willing to
assume the greater risks of short-term share price fluctuations
that are typical for an
aggressive growth fund."
7. The section captioned "Special Risks of Small-Cap Stocks" on page 4 is
deleted, and the section captioned "Risks of Investing in Stocks" on pages 3
and 4 is revised to read as follows:
RISKS OF INVESTING IN STOCKS. Stocks fluctuate in price, and their
short-term volatility at times may be great. Because the Fund invests
primarily in common stocks of U.S. companies, the value of the Fund's
portfolio will be affected by changes in the U.S. stock markets and the
special economic and other factors that might primarily affect the
prices of growth stocks. Market risk will affect the Fund's net asset
value per share, which will fluctuate as the values of the Fund's
portfolio securities change. A variety of factors can affect the price
of a particular stock and the prices of individual stocks do not all
move in the same direction uniformly or at the same time. Different
stock markets may behave differently from each other.
Other factors can affect a particular stock's price, such as poor
earnings reports by the issuer, loss of major customers, major
litigation against the issuer, or changes in government regulations
affecting the issuer or its industry.
Risks of Growth Stocks. Stocks of growth companies, particularly newer
companies, may offer opportunities for greater long-term capital
appreciation but may be more volatile than stocks of larger, more
established companies. They have greater risks if the company's
earnings growth or stock price fails to increase as expected.
8. The paragraph captioned "How Risky is the Fund Overall?" on page 4 is
revised to read as follows:
HOW RISKY IS THE FUND OVERALL? The risks described above collectively
form the risk overall profile of the Fund, and can affect the value of
the Fund's investments, its investment performance and its prices per
share. Particular investments and investment strategies also have
risks. These risks mean that you can lose money by investing in the
Fund. When you redeem your shares, they may be worth more or less than
what you paid for them. There is no assurance that the Fund will
achieve its investment objective.
In the short term, high-growth stocks can be very volatile. The price
of the Fund's shares can go up and down substantially. The Fund
generally does not use income-oriented investments to help cushion the
Fund's total return from changes in stock prices. In the
OppenheimerFunds spectrum, the Fund is an aggressive growth fund,
designed for investors willing to assume greater risks. It is likely to
be subject to greater fluctuations in its share prices than funds that
emphasize large capitalization stocks, or funds that focus on both
stocks and bonds.
9. The paragraph captioned "Small-Cap Stock Investments" on page 8 is
deleted and replaced with the following:
Growth Stock Investments. The Manager looks for stocks of companies
that have growth potential. Growth companies may be developing new
products or services or may be expanding into new markets for their
products. They may be newer companies or more established companies
entering a growth cycle. The Fund's investments are not limited to
issuers in a specific capitalization range, such as large-cap or
small-cap companies, and the Fund can invest in issuers in all
capitalization ranges. Market capitalization refers to the market value
of all of a company's issued and outstanding stock. Because the stocks
of companies that have smaller market capitalizations tend to be more
volatile, to the extent that the Fund holds small-cap stocks, its share
prices may fluctuate more and the risks of loss are greater.
Newer growth companies tend to retain a large part of their earnings
for research, development or investment in capital assets. Therefore,
they do not tend to emphasize paying dividends, and may not pay any
dividends for a protracted period. They are selected for the Fund's
portfolio because the Manager believes the price of the stock will
increase over time.
10.The sub-section "Portfolio Manager" on page 11 of the section captioned "How
the Fund is Managed - The Manager " is deleted and replaced with the
following:
Portfolio Manager. The portfolio manager of the Fund is David
Hyun. He is the person principally responsible for the
day-to-day management of the Fund. Mr. Hyun is a Vice
President of the Fund and the Manager. He joined the Manager
on June 26, 2000 from Fred Alger Management, Inc. where he was
a portfolio manager (December 1997 - June 2000), a technology
analyst (August 1993 - December 1997) and a research associate
(January 1991 - August 1993).
