Zack, Esq. OppenheimerFunds, Inc. 498 Seventh Avenue, New York, New York 10018 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (Name and address of agent for service) Registrant's telephone number, including area code: (303) 768-3200 -------------- Date of fiscal year end: August 31 Date of reporting period: September 1, 2002 - August 31, 2003 ITEM 1. REPORTS TO STOCKHOLDERS. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- FUND PERFORMANCE DISCUSSION -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- a large position in Genentech, the company announced impressively positive test results for Avastin, its lead cancer-fighting drug, driving the stock price sharply higher. Although our company-by-company stock selection process led us to concentrate assets in technology and health care, a small number of individual holdings in other areas also made significant contributions to the Fund's relatively good performance for the period. For example, returns benefited from the Fund's consumer discretionary holdings, including fashion accessories maker Coach, Inc.; satellite entertainment provider EchoStar Communications Corp.; and Spanish-language broadcasting network Univision Communications, Inc. Rising levels of spending on continuing education boosted Apollo Group, Inc., the parent company of University of Phoenix, Inc., with its fast-growing online educational programs. Finally, the Fund's holdings in Citigroup, Inc. gained ground largely on the basis of the company's position as a leading broker and market maker during a time of increasing market activity. The Fund's portfolio holdings, allocations and strategies are subject to change. Comparing the Fund's Performance to the Market. The graphs that follow show the performance of a hypothetical $10,000 investment in Class A, B and C shares of the Fund from the inception date of November 7, 1995, and Class Y shares from the inception date of April 1, 1999 held until its fiscal year-end August 31, 2003. In the case of Class N shares, performance is measured from inception of the Class on March 1, 2001. The graphs assume that all dividends and capital gains distributions were reinvested in additional shares. The graphs reflect the deduction of the maximum initial sales charge on Class A shares and the applicable contingent deferred sales charge on Class B, Class C and Class N shares. The Fund's performance is compared to the performance of the Standard & Poor's (S&P) 500 Index and the Russell 2000 Index. The S&P 500 Index is a broad-based index of equity securities widely regarded as a general measure of the performance of the U.S. equity securities market. The Russell 2000 Index is a capitalization-weighted index of 2,000 U.S. issuers whose common stocks are traded on The New York and American Stock Exchanges and NASDAQ, and is widely recognized as a measure of the performance of mid-capitalization stocks. Index performance reflects the reinvestment of dividends but does not consider the effect of capital gains or transaction costs, and none of the data in the graphs that follow show the effect of taxes. The Fund's performance reflects the effects of Fund business and operating expenses. While index comparisons may be useful to provide a benchmark for the Fund's performance, it must be noted that the Fund's investments are not limited to the securities in the indices shown. 6 OPPENHEIMER ENTERPRISE FUND Class A Shares Comparison of Change in Value of $10,000 Hypothetical Investments in: Oppenheimer Enterprise Fund (Class A) S&P 500 Index Russell 2000 Index [GRAPHIC] EDGAR REPRESENTATION OF DATA POINTS IN PRINTED GRAPHIC Oppenheimer Enterprise Date Yrs.

Investment return and principal value of an investment in the Fund will fluctuate so that an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than the original cost. Because of ongoing market volatility, the Fund's performance may be subject to substantial fluctuations, and current performance may be more or less than the results shown. For updates on the Fund's performance, visit our website at www.oppenheimerfunds.com. Total returns and the ending account values in the graph includes changes in share price and reinvestment of dividends and capital gains distributions in a hypothetical investment for the periods shown. The Fund's total returns shown do not reflect the deduction of income taxes on an individual's investment. Taxes may reduce your actual investment returns on income or gains paid by the Fund or any gains you may realize if you sell your shares. For more complete information about the Fund, including charges, expenses and risks, please refer to the prospectus.

See accompanying Notes to Financial Statements. 21 OPPENHEIMER ENTERPRISE FUND -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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 an open-end management investment company. The Fund's investment objective is to seek capital appreciation. The Fund's investment advisor is OppenheimerFunds, Inc. (the Manager). The Fund offers Class A, Class B, Class C, Class N and Class Y shares. Class A shares are sold at their offering price, which is normally net asset value plus a front-end sales charge. Class B, Class C and Class N shares are 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 without either a front-end sales charge or a CDSC. All classes of shares have identical rights and voting privileges. Earnings, net assets and net asset value per share may differ by minor amounts due to each class having its own expenses directly attributable to that class. Classes A, B, C and N have separate distribution and/or service plans. No such plan has been adopted for Class Y shares. 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. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Securities Valuation. Securities listed or traded on National Stock Exchanges or other domestic or foreign exchanges are valued based on the last sale price of the security traded on that exchange prior to the time when the Fund's assets are valued. Securities traded on NASDAQ are valued based on the closing price provided by NASDAQ prior to the time when the Fund's 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 closing bid and asked prices, and if not, at the closing bid price. Securities (including restricted securities) for which quotations are not readily available are valued primarily using dealer-supplied valuations, a portfolio pricing service authorized by the Board of Trustees, or at their fair value. Fair value is determined in good faith using consistently applied procedures under the supervision of the Board of Trustees. Short-term "money market type" debt securities with remaining maturities of sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost (which approximates market value). -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Foreign Currency Translation. The Fund's accounting records 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. 22 OPPENHEIMER ENTERPRISE FUND -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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 tax components of capital shown in the table below 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 investment for federal income tax purposes. Net Unrealized Appreciation Based Undistributed Undistributed Accumulated on Cost of Securities Net Investment Long-Term Loss for Federal Income Income Gain Carryforward 1,2,3 Tax Purposes ------------------------------------------------------------------------- $-- $-- $400,191,575 $37,602,464 1. As of August 31, 2003, the Fund had $383,574,177 of net capital loss carryforwards available to offset future realized capital gains, if any, and thereby reduce future taxable gain distributions. As of August 31, 2003, details of the capital loss carryforwards were as follows: Expiring ---------------------- 2009 $ 46,931,758 2010 257,289,240 2011 79,353,179 ------------ Total $383,574,177 ============ 2. During the fiscal years ended August 31, 2003 and August 31, 2002, the Fund did not utilize any capital loss carryforwards. 3. As of August 31, 2003, the Fund had $16,617,398 of post-October losses available to offset future realized capital gains, if any. Such losses, if unutilized, will expire in 2012. 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 August 31, 2003. Net assets of the Fund were unaffected by the reclassifications. From To (From) Net Ordinary Capital Gain Tax Return Investment Loss (Loss) of Capital Loss ---------------------------------------------------------- $2,157,340 $-- $-- $2,157,340 23 OPPENHEIMER ENTERPRISE FUND -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Continued -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. Significant Accounting Policies Continued No distributions were paid during the years ended August 31, 2003 and August 31, 2002. The aggregate cost of investments and the composition of unrealized appreciation and depreciation of investments for federal income tax purposes as of August 31, 2003 are noted below. The primary difference between book and tax appreciation or depreciation of investments, if applicable, is attributable to the tax deferral of losses or tax realization of financial statement unrealized gain or loss. Federal tax cost $171,958,387 ============ Gross unrealized appreciation $ 48,266,601 Gross unrealized depreciation (10,664,137) ------------ Net unrealized appreciation $ 37,602,464 ============ -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Trustees' Compensation. The Fund has adopted an unfunded 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, 2003, the Fund's projected benefit obligations were increased by $1,976 and payments of $3,026 were made to retired trustees, resulting in an accumulated liability of $72,047 as of August 31, 2003. The Board of Trustees has adopted a deferred compensation 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. Under the plan, deferred amounts are treated as though equal dollar amounts had been invested in shares of the Fund or are invested in other selected Oppenheimer funds. Deferral of trustees' fees under the plan will not affect the net assets of the Fund, and will not materially affect the Fund's assets, liabilities or net investment income per share. Amounts will be deferred until distributed in accordance to the Plan. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends and distributions to shareholders, which are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gain distributions, if any, are declared and paid annually. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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, which includes accretion of discount and amortization of premium, is accrued as earned. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Expense Offset Arrangement. The reduction of custodian fees represents earnings on cash balances maintained by the Fund. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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. 24 OPPENHEIMER ENTERPRISE FUND -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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 income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2. Shares of Beneficial Interest The Fund has authorized an unlimited number of no par value shares of beneficial interest of each class. Transactions in shares of beneficial interest were as follows:

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 3. Purchases and Sales of Securities The aggregate cost of purchases and proceeds from sales of securities, other than short-term obligations, for the year ended August 31, 2003, were $182,093,486 and $206,655,638, respectively. 25 OPPENHEIMER ENTERPRISE FUND -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Continued -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 4. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates Management Fees. Management fees paid to the Manager were in accordance with the investment advisory agreement with the Fund which provides for a fee at an annual rate 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, 0.60% of the next $700 million, and 0.58% of average annual net assets over $1.5 billion. Effective January 1, 2002, the Manager has voluntarily agreed to waive advisory fees at an annual rate equal to 0.05% of the Fund's average daily net assets until the Fund's trailing one year performance percentile at the end of the preceding quarter is in the third quintile or better of the Fund's Lipper peer group. The foregoing waiver is voluntary and may be terminated by the Manager at any time. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Transfer Agent Fees. OppenheimerFunds Services (OFS), a division of the Manager, acts as the transfer and shareholder servicing agent for the Fund. The Fund pays OFS a per account fee. For the year ended August 31, 2003, the Fund paid $634,467 to OFS for services to the Fund. Additionally, Class Y shares are subject to minimum fees of $5,000 for assets of less than $10 million and $10,000 for assets of $10 million or more. The Class Y shares are subject to the minimum fees in the event that the per account fee does not equal or exceed the applicable minimum fees. OFS may voluntarily waive the minimum fees. OFS has voluntarily agreed to limit transfer and shareholder servicing agent fees up to an annual rate of 0.35% of average annual net assets for all classes. This undertaking may be amended or withdrawn at any time. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Distribution and Service Plan (12b-1) Fees. Under its General Distributor's Agreement with the Manager, OppenheimerFunds Distributor, Inc. (the Distributor) acts as the Fund's principal underwriter in the continuous public offering of the different classes of shares of the Fund. The compensation paid to (or retained by) the Distributor from the sale of shares or on the redemption of shares is shown in the table below for the period indicated.

The Fund has adopted a Service Plan for Class A Shares. It reimburses the Distributor for a portion of its costs incurred for services provided to accounts that hold Class A shares. Reimbursement is made quarterly at an annual rate of up to 0.25% of the average annual net assets of Class A shares of the Fund. For the year ended August 31, 2003, expense under the Class A Plan totaled $242,544, all of which were paid by the Distributor to recipients, which included $5,740 retained by the Distributor and $17,095 which was paid to an affiliate of the Manager. Any unreimbursed expenses the Distributor incurs with respect to Class A shares in any fiscal year cannot be recovered in subsequent years. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Distribution and Service Plans for Class B, Class C and Class N Shares. The Fund has adopted Distribution and Service Plans for Class B, Class C and Class N shares. Under the plans, the Fund pays the Distributor an annual asset-based sales charge of 0.75% per year on Class B shares and on Class C shares and the Fund pays the Distributor an annual asset-based sales charge of 0.25% per year on Class N shares. The Distributor also receives a service fee of 0.25% per year under each plan. Distribution fees paid to the Distributor for the year ended August 31, 2003, were as follows: Distributor's Distributor's Aggregate Aggregate Unreimbursed Unreimbursed Expenses as % Total Payments Amount Retained Expenses of Net Assets Under Plan by Distributor Under Plan of Class -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Class B Plan $524,148 $405,994 $1,382,862 2.22% Class C Plan 125,123 26,727 301,724 2.07 Class N Plan 2,681 2,155 8,646 1.26 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 5. Option Activity The Fund may buy and sell put and call options, or write put and covered call options on portfolio securities in order to produce incremental earnings or protect against changes in the value of portfolio securities. The Fund generally purchases put options or writes covered call options to hedge against adverse movements in the value of portfolio holdings. When an option is written, the Fund receives a premium and becomes obligated to sell or purchase the underlying security at a fixed price, upon exercise of the option. Options are valued daily based upon the last sale price on the principal exchange on which the option is traded and unrealized appreciation or depreciation is recorded. The Fund will realize a gain or loss upon the expiration or closing of the option transaction. When an option is exercised, the proceeds on sales for a written call option, the purchase cost for a written put option, or the cost of the security for a purchased put or call option is adjusted by the amount of premium received or paid. 27 OPPENHEIMER ENTERPRISE FUND -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Continued -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 5. Option Activity Continued Securities designated to cover outstanding call options are noted in the Statement of Investments where applicable. Shares subject to call, expiration date, exercise price, premium received and market value are detailed in a note to the Statement of Investments. Options written are reported as a liability in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Realized gains and losses are reported in the Statement of Operations. The risk in writing a call option is that the Fund gives up the opportunity for profit if the market price of the security increases and the option is exercised. The risk in writing a put option is that the Fund may incur a loss if the market price of the security decreases and the option is exercised. The risk in buying an option is that the Fund pays a premium whether or not the option is exercised. The Fund also has the additional risk of not being able to enter into a closing transaction if a liquid secondary market does not exist. Written option activity for the year ended August 31, 2003 was as follows: Call Options ------------------------ Number of Amount of Contracts Premiums ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Options outstanding as of August 31, 2002 -- -- Options written 500 $ 73,499 Options closed or expired (500) (73,499) ------------------------ Options outstanding as of August 31, 2003 -- $ -- ======================== -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 6. Illiquid or Restricted Securities As of August 31, 2003, investments in securities included issues that are illiquid or restricted. Restricted securities are 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 also 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 limitation. The aggregate value of illiquid or restricted securities subject to this limitation as of August 31, 2003 was $287,658, which represents 0.13% of the Fund's net assets, all of which is considered restricted. Information concerning restricted securities is as follows:

28 OPPENHEIMER ENTERPRISE FUND -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 7. Borrowing and Lending Arrangements The Fund entered into an "interfund borrowing and lending arrangement" with other funds in the Oppenheimer funds complex, to allow funds to borrow for liquidity purposes. The arrangement was initiated pursuant to exemptive relief granted by the Securities and Exchange Commission to allow these affiliated funds to lend money to, and borrow money from, each other, in an attempt to reduce borrowing costs below those of bank loan facilities. Under the arrangement the Fund may lend money to other Oppenheimer funds and may borrow from other Oppenheimer funds at a rate set by the Fund's Board of Trustees, based upon a recommendation by the Manager. The Fund's borrowings, if any, are subject to asset coverage requirements under the Investment Company Act and the provisions of the SEC order and other applicable regulations. If the Fund borrows money, there is a risk that the loan could be called on one day's notice, in which case the Fund might have to borrow from a bank at higher rates if a loan were not available from another Oppenheimer fund. If the Fund lends money to another fund, it will be subject to the risk that the other fund might not repay the loan in a timely manner, or at all. The Fund had no interfund borrowings or loans outstanding during the year ended or at August 31, 2003. 29 OPPENHEIMER ENTERPRISE FUND -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Board of Trustees and Shareholders of Oppenheimer Enterprise Fund: We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Oppenheimer Enterprise Fund, including the statement of investments, as of August 31, 2003, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended. 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 auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. 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, 2003, by correspondence with the custodian. 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, 2003, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. KPMG LLP Denver, Colorado September 22, 2003 30 OPPENHEIMER ENTERPRISE FUND -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- FEDERAL INCOME TAX INFORMATION Unaudited -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- In early 2004, if applicable, shareholders of record will receive information regarding all dividends and distributions paid to them by the Fund during calendar year 2003. Regulations of the U.S. Treasury Department require the Fund to report this information to the Internal Revenue Service. 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 advisor for specific guidance. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PORTFOLIO PROXY VOTING POLICIES AND PROCEDURES Unaudited -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Fund has adopted Portfolio Proxy Voting Policies and Procedures under which the Fund votes proxies relating to securities ("portfolio proxies") held by the Fund.
