?                   Dejour Enterprises Announces Analyst Coverage and Report by Zacks Investment Research

?                    

October 1, 2009, Vancouver, Canada. Dejour Enterprises Ltd. (NYSE AMEX:  DEJ/TSX:  DEJ) announces that Zacks Investment Research, an online financial investment data provider, has initiated coverage of the Company.  In addition, Zacks has completed an independent report that projects an initial 12-month target stock price for the Company’s common stock of US$1.01, quoting that Zack’s believes the Company’s "key Piceance Basin acreage [to be] at ground zero of bidding war".

This 24-page article outlines a comprehensive financial analysis of the Company, including discounted cash flow estimates of the intrinsic value of the Company’s oil and gas properties.  On the basis of only the present net asset value and without consideration of any future cash flow from development, the Zacks report indicates that it believes the Company’s shares are undervalued.

The Company’s Chairman & CEO, Robert L. Hodgkinson, comments that "this first independent research report serves to profile our solid asset base that management believes will deliver strong incremental value to our stakeholders.  We will be commencing the Peace River Arch winter oil drilling this fourth quarter, which we anticipate will substantially impact Dejour’s valuation over the next six months.  The recognition provided by Zacks Investment Research in its report and continued coverage will certainly corroborate our efforts and document our growth not only for the period upon us, but continually during the resurgence of the North American natural gas markets over the next several years".

The report was written by independent financial analyst, Richard R. Wolfe, CFA.  A copy of the report can be obtained for a fee at www.zacks.com.
