ST. ALBERT, ALBERTA--(Marketwire - Nov. 30, 2011) - Enterprise Oilfield Group, Inc. (News - Market indicators) is pleased to announce that is has closed on a new financing facility at zero percent (0%) interest. The new facility is a $1.5 million, four year term loan, with an interest rate of zero percent (0%) for the first two years of the loan, followed by two years of principal plus interest at 5.585% per annum. This loan follows the $1.8 million of conventional financing the Company obtained in June of this year.
The combination of these two debt facilities allowed Enterprise to fully pay out the high interest loan it obtained in the fourth quarter of 2010. As a result, the Company will save approximately $805,000 in interest cost on long term debt over the next two years. Since the beginning of the year, Enterprise has repaid over $4.9 million in loans and borrowings.
Along with improving its balance sheet, Enterprise remains optimistic about its continued profitability. Positive indicators across the divisions have been identified with the Company's rental division experiencing increased activity as construction equipment is now in high demand. Management is exploring a number of opportunities to expand and fuel the overall growth of the Company. As such, Enterprise has identified three potential acquisition/merger targets and is currently engaged in various stages of negotiations and due diligence.
As Enterprise grows and returns to profitability, it will take advantage of its income tax asset and begin utilizing its $10 million of non capital losses to offset any income taxes payable effectively making the Company's profits tax free until the non capital losses are fully utilized.

The Company's focus is primarily underground construction and maintenance and above ground plants and facilities.
