                               ENZO BIOCHEM, INC.
                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                January 31, 1995
                                  (Unaudited)

1. The consolidated balance sheet as of January 31, 1995, the consolidated
statement of operations for six months ended January 31, 1995 ("1995 Period")
and 1994 ("1994 Period") and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the
six months ended January 31, 1995 and 1994 have been prepared by the Company
without audit. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only
normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial
position, results of operations and cash flows at January 31, 1995 and for all
periods presented have been made.

         Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in
financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested that these financial
statements be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and
notes thereto included in the Company's 1994 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The
results of operations for the six months ended January 31, 1995 are not
necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year.

2. On October 19, 1994 the Company executed a settlement agreement with Johnson
& Johnson, Inc. in the aggregate amount of $35.0 million pursuant to which the
Company received $15.0 million, of which $6.5 million relates to amounts due
under certain research and development agreements and which was included in
research contracts receivable at July 31, 1994, and a promissory note requiring
Johnson & Johnson and its subsidiary, Ortho Diagnostics, Inc., to pay $5.0
million a year for each of the four successive anniversaries of said date.
Pursuant to the terms of the settlement, all of the Company's grants, licenses
and intellectual property have been returned to the Company in totality.

3. On January 13, 1995, the Company paid in full the $61,900 outstanding balance
of the 9% Convertible Subordinated Debentures originally issued in 1986.

4. In March 1993, the Company filed suit in the United States District Court for
the District of Delaware charging patent infringement and acts of unfair
competition against Calgene, Inc. and seeking a declaratory judgment of
invalidity concerning Calgene, Inc.'s antisense patent. On February 9, 1994 the
Company filed a second suit in the United States District court for the District
of Delaware charging Calgene with infringement of a second antisense patent
owned by the Company. Calgene has filed a counterclaim in the second Delaware
action seeking a declaration that a third patent belonging to the Company is
invalid. The two Delaware actions have been consolidated and are scheduled to go
to trial in April 1995. In addition, the Company filed suit on March 22, 1994 in
the United States District Court for the Western District of Washington against
Calgene and the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center, alleging that the
defendants had conspired to issue a false and misleading press release regarding
a supposed "patent license" from Hutchinson to Calgene, and conspired to subvert
the Company's antisense patents by improperly using confidential information to
challenge them in the Patent Office. The Complaint further charges that
Hutchinson is infringing and inducing Calgene to infringe the Company's
antisense patents. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful
in any of the foregoing matters or that Calgene, Inc. and/or Hutchinson will not
be successful. However, even if the Company is not successful, management does
not believe there will be a significant monetary impact.

5. Effective December 1, 1985, the Company entered into an agreement with the
City of New York to lease, over a fifty-year term, a six-story building located
in New York City. During 1992 this lease was renegotiated. The Company has
recorded the fair market value of the real property in the amount of $3,000,000
as a capital lease obligation due in installments through 2036. Financing for
the renovation and equipping of such facility came principally from the
Company's own funds. The Company is carrying the capital leasehold interest at
its estimated fair market value.

6. In April, 1994, the Company signed a non-exclusive worldwide distribution and
supply agreement with Boehringer Mannheim Biochemicals. Under the terms of this
agreement, Boehringer Mannheim will distribute to the global medical research
market, a broad range of biochemical products and reagents manufactured and
supplied by Enzo. The agreement includes products based on nonradioactive DNA
probe technology and includes products that were developed and marketed by
Boehringer Mannheim prior to the agreement as well as products developed by the
Company, all of which are covered by Enzo patents. The agreement takes effect
immediately and extends for the life of the last patent to expire for products
involved.

     The Company has net operating loss carryforwards at July 31, 1994 of
approximately $19,244,000 for income tax return purposes.

Item 2- Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
        and Results of Operations

Liquidity and Capital Resources

         Net cash provided by operating activities increased by approximately
$12,524,000 for the six months ended January 31, 1995 as a result of an increase
in net income of approximately $19,112,000 related to the J&J settlement offset
by changes in operating assets and liabilities.

         The Company's internal source of cash generated by operations in
addition to the proceeds from the litigation settlement was sufficient to meet
the Company's needs for investing and other financing activities. At January 31,
1995 the Company had working capital of approximately $23,745,000.

         On October 19, 1994 the Company executed a settlement agreement with
Johnson & Johnson, Inc. pursuant to which the Company received $15.0 million and
a promissory note requiring Johnson & Johnson and its subsidiary, Ortho
Diagnostics, Inc., to pay $5.0 million a year for each of the four successive
anniversaries of said date. Pursuant to the terms of the settlement, all of the
Company's grants, licenses and intellectual property have been returned to the
Company in totality.

         In March, 1994 EnzoLabs entered into a $2.0 million line of credit with
a bank. Interest was being charged at a rate of 1% above the bank's prime rate.
In October, 1994 the Company paid in full the line of credit.

         Effective December 1, 1985, the Company entered into an agreement with
the City of New York to lease, over a fifty-year term, a six-story building
located in New York City. During 1992 this lease was renegotiated. The Company
has recorded the fair market value of the real property in the amount of
$3,000,000 as a capital lease obligation due in installments through 2036.
Financing for the renovation and equipping of such facility came principally
from the $10,000,000 industrial revenue bond financing completed on December 31,
1985 and the Company's own funds. The Company has decided to carry the capital
leasehold interest at its estimated fair market value.

Results of Operations
- ---------------------
Six months ended January 31, 1995 compared with six months ended January 31,
1994
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------

         Operating revenues for the six months ended January 31, 1995 ("1995
period") increased by $5,419,000 over operating revenues for the six months
ended January 31, 1994 ("1994 period"). This increase was due to a $2,098,000
increase in revenues from the clinical reference laboratory and an increase of
$3,321,000 of research product revenues as compared to the 1994 period. Revenues
at the clinical reference laboratory increased due to the increase in volume of
higher priced screening tests. Revenues from research products increased
primarily from the Company's non-exclusive contract with Boehringer Mannheim for
distribution of the Company's products.

         Cost of sales increased by approximately $2,952,000 primarily due to
increased revenues from research products related to the Boehringer Mannheim
non-exclusive agreement.

         Selling expenses increased by $553,000 due to an increase in marketing
programs and sales personnel for the clinical reference laboratory.

          Interest income increased by $284,000 as a result of the investment of
the proceeds from the litigation settlement with Johnson & Johnson.

          The increase in general and administrative expenses of $494,000 was
primarily due to the increased legal fees for the Calgene lawsuit.

         The provision for bad debts increased by $244,000 due to an increase in
revenues from the clinical reference laboratory.

         The provision for taxes increased approximately $3,000,000 primarily
due to the recognition of income resulting from the litigation settlement.

Three months ended January 31, 1995 compared with three months ended January 31,
1994
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

         Operating revenues for the three months ended January 31, 1995 ("1995
period") increased by $2,566,000 over revenues from operations for the three
months ended January 31, 1994 ("1994 period"). This increase was due to
increases of $1,440,000 in revenues from the clinical reference laboratory and
an increase in research product sales of $1,126,000 for the similar activity in
the 1994 period.

         Cost of sales increased by $1,452,000 primarily as a result of
increased revenues by research product sales related to the Boehringer Mannheim
distribution agreement.

         Selling expenses increased by $314,000 as a result of increased
personnel costs related to the clinical reference laboratory.

         General and administrative expenses increased by approximately $172,000
as a result of an increase of legal fees related to the diagnostic division.
