Enron Not Looking for New Business M&A in 2000

    Enron does not expect any mergers or acquisitions of new business and is
not interested in selling its pipelines. Enron will seek opportunities to
fill-in its businesses with asset purchases, rather  than purchasing new
businesses. It will be giving a detailed view of its telecommunications
business at an analysts meeting in Houston today. Enron says Europe, Latin
America,s southern cone and Japan provide great opportunity. Enron,s EnCom
unit,s recently teamed with the Japanese firm Orix to participate in the
retail electricity sales business when the Japan market is opened, currently
scheduled for this March. Enron plans to use EnronOnline as its vehicle to
enter the European market. EnronOnline, the global Internet-based transaction
system for wholesale energy and other commodities, will soon allow it to
reduce back-office costs in a transaction substantially. In addition to being
able to cut the $1,000-$1,500 per transaction as much as 80-90%, EnronOnline
will create an environment where a buyer or seller of natural gas or power
will be able to more easily, with a computer mouse click, process complex
power and natural gas transactions.
