Item 1. SECURITY AND ISSUER
   
This statement on Schedule 13D (the “Schedule 13D”) relates to the common stock, $0.01 par value (the “Common Stock”), of Enzo Biochem, Inc., a New York corporation (the “Issuer”).  The Issuer’s principal executive offices are located at 527 Madison Avenue, New York, New York 10022.

 

Item 2. IDENTITY AND BACKGROUND
   
(a), (f)

This Schedule 13D is being filed jointly by (i) Harbert Discovery Fund, LP, a Delaware limited partnership (the “Discovery Fund”), (ii) Harbert Discovery Fund GP, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Discovery Fund GP”), (iii) Harbert Discovery Co-Investment Fund I, LP (the “Discovery Co-Investment Fund” and together with the Discovery Fund, the “Funds”), (iv) Harbert Discovery Co-Investment Fund I GP, LLC (the “Discovery Co-Investment Fund GP” and together with the Discovery Fund GP, the “Fund GPs”), (v) Harbert Fund Advisors, Inc., an Alabama corporation (“HFA”), (vi) Harbert Management Corporation, an Alabama corporation (“HMC”), (vii) Jack Bryant, a United States citizen, (viii) Kenan Lucas, a United States citizen and (ix) Raymond Harbert, a United States citizen (collectively the “Reporting Persons”).

 

The filing of this statement should not be construed as an admission that any Reporting Person is, for the purposes of Section 13 of the Act or otherwise, the beneficial owner of the shares of Common Stock reported herein.

   
(b) The principal business address for each of the Reporting Persons is 2100 Third Avenue North, Suite 600, Birmingham, Alabama 35203.
   
(c) Kenan Lucas is the managing director and portfolio manager of the Discovery Fund GP and the Discovery Co-Investment Fund GP, which serve as general partner of the Discovery Fund and the Discovery Co-Investment Fund, respectively.  Jack Bryant is a Senior Advisor to the Discovery Fund, and a Vice President and Senior Managing Director of HMC.  Raymond Harbert is the controlling shareholder, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of HMC, an alternative asset investment management firm that is the managing member of the Discovery Fund GP and Discovery Co-Investment Fund GP.  Mr. Harbert also serves as the Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and Director of HFA, an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of HMC, which provides the Funds with certain operational and administrative services.

CUSIP No. 294100102SCHEDULE 13DPage 12 of 16 Pages

 

(e) During the last five years, none of the Reporting Persons have been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and were not and are not, as a result of any such proceeding, subject to a judgment, decree, or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.
     

Item 3. SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION
   
The funds for the purchase of the Common Stock by the Funds came from the working capital of the Funds, over which HFA, HMC, the Fund GPs, Jack Bryant, Kenan Lucas and Raymond Harbert, through their roles described above in Item 2(c), exercise investment discretion. No borrowed funds were used to purchase the shares of Common Stock reported in this Schedule 13D, other than borrowed funds used for working capital purposes in the ordinary course of business. The total costs of the Common Stock directly owned by the Funds is approximately $8,929,812.

   

Item 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION
   
The Reporting Persons purchased the securities of the Issuer reported herein based on their belief that the securities were undervalued and represented an attractive investment opportunity.
 
The Reporting Persons have had and anticipate having further conversations with members of the Issuer’s management and board of directors regarding possible ways to enhance shareholder value. The topics of these conversations may cover a range of issues, including those relating to the Issuer’s business, management, board composition (which may include adding or proposing a candidate or candidates supported by the Reporting Persons to the board of directors of the Issuer (the “Board”)), operations, capital allocation, asset allocation, capitalization, corporate structure, dividend policy, financial condition, mergers and acquisitions strategy (which may include a potential strategic review or sale process involving the Issuer or certain of the Issuer’s businesses or assets, including transactions in which the Reporting Persons or their affiliates may seek to participate and potentially engage in), overall business strategy and plans, executive compensation, organizational documents and corporate governance matters.
 
The Reporting Persons may consider, explore and/or develop plans and/or make proposals (whether preliminary or firm) with respect to, among other things, potential changes in the matters set forth above.  The Reporting Persons may discuss such matters with other shareholders or other third parties, including industry analysts, investment professionals, investors, potential acquirers, existing or potential strategic partners or competitors, service providers and financing sources.  The Reporting Persons may exchange information with any such persons pursuant to appropriate confidentiality or similar agreements which may include customary standstill provisions.

 

 

CUSIP No. 294100102SCHEDULE 13DPage 13 of 16 Pages

 

 
The Reporting Persons intend to review their investment in the Issuer on a continuing basis and depending upon various factors, including without limitation, the Issuer’s financial position and strategic direction, actions taken by the Issuer, the outcome of any discussions or actions referenced above, overall market, general economic and industry conditions, other available investment opportunities, and the availability of securities of the Issuer at prices that would make the purchase or sale of such securities desirable, it may endeavor (i) to increase or decrease their position in the Issuer through, among other things, the purchase or sale of Common Stock and/or other equity, debt, derivative securities or other instruments that are convertible into Common Stock, or are based upon or relate to the value of the Common Stock or the Issuer (collectively, “Securities”) on the open market or in private transactions, including through a trading plan created under Rule 10b5-1(c) or otherwise, on such terms and at such times as the Reporting Persons may deem advisable and/or (ii) to enter into transactions that increase or hedge their economic exposure to the Common Stock or other Securities without affecting any Reporting Person’s beneficial ownership of the Common Stock or other Securities.  In addition, the Reporting Persons may, at any time and from time to time, (i) review or reconsider their position and/or change their purpose and/or formulate plans or proposals with respect thereto and (ii) propose or consider one or more of the actions described in subparagraphs (a) – (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D.

(e) Not applicable.
