Our Take on Hims & Hers

Hims & Hers’ robust improvement in the top line and strength in both revenue channels in third-quarter 2025 were promising. The increase in subscribers and monthly online revenue per average subscriber during the quarter was encouraging.

HIMS launched a new specialty in women’s health, offering access to affordable treatment plans built specifically for women experiencing perimenopause and menopause (in October), and a new category in men’s health, offering access to innovative, affordable and personalized treatment plans for low testosterone (in September). In July, HIMS closed its acquisition of ZAVA, expanding its presence in the U.K. and establishing a foundation in other strategic markets such as Germany, Ireland and France. These raise our optimism about the stock.

However, Hims & Hers’ dismal bottom-line results in the third quarter of 2025 were disappointing. The contraction of both margins during the quarter does not bode well for the stock.
