Enzo Biochem Reports Third Quarter Fiscal Year 2025 Results

FARMINGDALE, N.Y., June 16, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Enzo Biochem, Inc. (OTCQX: ENZB) ('Enzo' or the 'Company') today announced financial results for the fiscal third quarter ended April 30, 2025. Financial Highlights The Company's third-quarter revenue of $6.4 million declined by $1.6 million or 20% compared to the same period in the prior year across all geographic areas. This is due to general continued headwinds in the life sciences tools space, including decreases in government grants, reduced R&D budgets, and tariffs uncertainty, as well as timing of large orders fulfillment. The Company launched approximately 100 new products during the third-quarter of fiscal year 2025, and we are focusing on driving new revenues for those products. The Company's third-quarter gross margin percentage was 39% (41% excluding a one-time inventory provision) and 47% in the 2025 and 2024 periods, respectively. The decline in the 2025 period gross profit was driven by the reduction in revenues, which did not fully cover overhead burden and other fixed manufacturing costs. Despite changes in revenue, the operating loss results for the nine months of FY25 for the Company's continuing operations decreased by $1.1 million compared to the same period in the prior year. This was achieved through cost containment initiatives and timing of litigation matters. Net loss per basic and fully diluted share was ($0.05) and ($0.06) for the three months ended April 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Enzo ended the third quarter with aggregate cash and cash equivalents of $36.7 million and working capital of $31.3 million. As noted below, $6.7 million of the remaining class-wide settlement will be paid in July 2025. The Board of Directors and management continue to be focused on conserving cash. Recent Events The Company and plaintiffs have reached a class-wide settlement agreement pertaining to the April 2023 cyber incident, which the Court granted approval of at the final fairness hearing on June 10, 2025. Approximately $0.8M of the settlement was paid in March 2025 and the remaining balance of $6.7 million must be remitted by July 10, 2025. On April 22, 2025 the Company announced that its Board of Directors (the 'Board') had commenced a review of strategic alternatives after receiving multiple inquiries regarding a potential transaction with the Company. In connection with this process, the Board has formed a special committee of independent directors (the 'Strategic Committee') authorized to evaluate a broad range of opportunities to maximize value for shareholders, including a potential strategic transaction, business combination, full sale of the Company or return of excess capital to shareholders. The Strategic Committee has engaged BroadOak Capital Partners as financial advisor to assist in evaluating any inbound expressions of interest and other potential transactions. The Company does not intend to disclose further developments on this strategic review process unless and until a transaction is approved and entered into, or the process is discontinued. On March 28, 2025, we notified the NYSE of our decision to voluntarily delist our common stock from NYSE. In connection with the delisting, the last day of trading of the Company's common stock on NYSE was April 17, 2025. The Company's common stock began trading on OTCQX on April 21, 2025 under the symbol 'ENZB.' About Enzo Biochem Enzo Biochem, Inc. has operated as a life sciences company for over 45 years. The primary business of Enzo today is conducted through its Life Sciences division, Enzo Life Sciences, which focuses on labeling and detection technologies from DNA to whole cell analysis, including a comprehensive portfolio of thousands of high-quality products, including antibodies, genomic probes, assays, biochemicals, and proteins.

A reconciliation of such non-GAAP measures is included in the presentation of the Company's financial results for the quarter ended April 30, 2025 contained herein and is also available in the investor relations section of the Company's website ( The Company believes the presentation of these non-GAAP measures provides useful additional information to investors because they provide information consistent with that on which management evaluates the financial performance of the Company. The Company manages its business based on its operating cash flows. It refers to EBITDA as its primary indicator of performance and refers to Adjusted EBITDA to further exclude items of a non-recurring nature. It is reasonable to expect that one or more excluded items will occur in future periods, though the amounts recognized can vary significantly from period to period. You are encouraged to evaluate each adjustment used to determine a non-GAAP financial measure and the reasons management considers it appropriate for supplemental analysis. Our presentation of these measures should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items.

Alpari Report Gold above $3K: the appeal of safe haven assets in volatile times after 'Liberation Day'

LONDON, June 16, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- In March, the spot price of gold rose above $3K where it has stayed, currently sitting above $3.4K. Apart from briefly exceeding this price a few days on 14 March and dropping again, this is the first time the asset has hit this record price. A key reason for the high price of gold is the current economic and geopolitical instability. The broker Alpari has put together a report on gold and other safe-haven assets, and why investors turn to them during periods of instability. One reason for gold's reliability as a safe haven asset is its scarcity, with over 90% of the world's gold already mined according to the World Gold Council. While it is only as recently as March that gold reached the landmark price of $3,000, it had already been reaching high prices in 2024. Central banks increasing their stocks of the precious metal was one key factor, with central banks around the world purchasing over 1,000 tonnes of gold last year. Uncertainty around what the effects of President Trump's tariffs and other policies will be has caused volatility, sending U.S. investors in particular in search of safe havens. From December 2024 to 17 February, almost 20 million ounces of gold had been imported into the country, according to the World Gold Council. Alpari's guide also includes an overview of how gold is priced and how it can be traded against different currencies. The worldwide benchmark is XAUUSD, or the price of 1 troy ounce gold quoted in U.S. dollars, but 'gold crosses' against currencies can also give traders the opportunity to make a profit based on differing gold prices around the world. In 2024, gold vs the U.S. dollar or XAUUSD climbed 27%. In contrast, due to the economic situation in Japan, with labour shortages and low interest rates, gold vs the yen or XAUJPY climbed by a much higher 42%. Alexey Efimov, Market Analyst at Alpari, comments: "Trade war fears and central bank purchases should ensure that bullion's supportive drivers remain intact. The evident risks on the global landscape are playing to gold's strengths and amplifying its time-tested virtues, be it as a safe haven or an inflation hedge. About Alpari: Alpari is a long-established leader in online financial trading. They pioneered online forex trading for retail clients 25 years ago, and remain focused on enabling individuals to access the potential of global financial markets Alpari clients are individuals with an appetite to generate financial returns through self-directed trading.

They believe that individuals anywhere in the world should be able to access opportunities in financial markets - where local political environments do not support domestic regulation, they provide solutions for individuals to access our services offshore, but offering the same service standards and client protections as a regulated business.
