- Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement for substantially all of the operating assets of the Clinical Labs division

- Enzo Life Sciences reports revenue of $7.5 million, with Jan-23 revenue of $3.6M as the second highest monthly revenue in over 10 years

FARMINGDALE, NY, March 21, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Enzo Biochem, Inc. (NYSE:ENZ), a pioneering biosciences and diagnostics company, filed its Form 10-Q for the second quarter ended January 31, 2023 of Fiscal Year 2023 (Q2 FY23). Enzo Biochem will not be hosting a financial webcast or call for this most recent quarterly reporting period.

On March 16, 2023, Enzo Biochem announced that the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with respect to the sale of substantially all of the operating assets and assignment of certain liabilities which are necessary to operate the business of the Clinical Labs division.  “This acquisition was part of an effort to evaluate strategic initiatives for Enzo Biochem that was initiated in 2022, in collaboration with the investment bank Jefferies LLC, said Hamid Erfanian, CEO of Enzo Biochem.  By unlocking significant value for Enzo shareholders, the transaction positions Enzo to consider strategies to maximize the potential and value of the company’s remaining assets, including the Enzo Life Sciences segment.”

Second Quarter 2023 Revenue Results

  • Revenues reached $16.3M in the second quarter, a decrease of 52% compared to $34.0M in the second quarter of last year and a decrease of 11% sequentially compared to the first quarter of FY23. The decrease compared to Q2 FY22 was driven by the decline of COVID testing and timing of bulk product orders.
  • Q2 FY23 revenues for Enzo Life Sciences were $7.5 million.  After adjusting for a bulk order in the prior year, Q2 FY23 revenues were near flat compared to Q2 FY22.  Revenues grew 6% when compared to the sequential period of Q1 FY23, with Europe contributing approximately 20% growth. The January 2023 revenue was the second highest monthly revenue in over 10 years.
  • Q2 FY23 revenues for the Clinical Lab segment were $8.8 million, a decrease of 63% compared to the $23.7 million in the second quarter of last year, primarily impacted by the decline in COVID testing revenues.  Non-COVID testing accessions grew 7% compared to the same period in the prior year, but those revenues declined due to payer and liquidation rate adjustments, as well as a charge to revenue due to a Medicaid audit.
