Hims & Hers Health (NYSE: HIMS) Shares Fell Approximately 6% After Hours Monday and Extended the Decline Into Tuesday August 11 Trading Despite Q2 2026 Revenue of $753.2 Million (+38% YoY, Beating $698.9M Consensus) and Q3 Guidance of $890 Million (+12.4% Above Consensus); GAAP Loss of $0.37 per Share Was Well Below Analyst Estimates, and Gross Margin Compression to 64% (From 76% Year-Ago) Hit Its Fourth Consecutive Quarter of Decline as the Compounded-to-Branded GLP-1 Pivot Continued to Drag Unit Economics; Q2 Net Loss of $86.3 Million Versus $42.5 Million Net Income in Q2 2025

Hims & Hers Health (NYSE: HIMS) shares fell approximately 6% after hours Monday and extended the decline into Tuesday August 11, 2026 trading despite Q2 2026 revenue of $753.2 million (+38% year-over-year, beating $698.9 million consensus) and Q3 guidance of $890 million at the midpoint (+12.4% above analyst expectations). The GAAP loss of $0.37 per share ran well below analyst estimates, and gross margin compression to 64% (from 76% year-ago) hit its fourth consecutive quarter of decline. Q2 net loss reached $86.3 million versus $42.5 million net income in Q2 2025. The compounded-to-branded GLP-1 pivot through the Novo Nordisk (Wegovy, Ozempic) and Eli Lilly (Zepbound, Mounjaro) commercial partnerships since Q1 2026 continues to drag unit economics. Full-year 2026 guidance was raised to $3.1-3.3 billion revenue and $275-325 million Adjusted EBITDA. The market appears to be pricing the compounded-to-branded pivot as a durable margin drag rather than a transitory transition; the July 29 FTC lawsuit alleging consumer health data sharing with Meta and Snap plus unauthorized billing charges remains a substantive overhang. Chief Medical Officer Dr. Anant Vinjamoori's July 23 PCAC harm-reduction testimony framing continues to shape the peptide-strategy narrative for the stock.

Hims & Hers Health (NYSE: HIMS) reported Q2 2026 earnings after market close Monday August 10, 2026. Revenue reached $753.2 million (+38% year-over-year), beating consensus of $698.9 million. US revenue was $621.8 million (+16% YoY); international revenue climbed to $131.4 million (+17-fold year-over-year) aided by the completion of the Eucalyptus acquisition in June 2026. Subscribers grew to approximately 2.9 million (+19% YoY). The company raised full-year 2026 guidance to $3.1-3.3 billion in revenue and $275-325 million in Adjusted EBITDA. Net loss was $86.3 million versus $42.5 million net income in Q2 2025 as gross margin compressed to 64% from 76% year-ago; the compression reflects the strategic pivot from compounded GLP-1s (higher margin) to branded GLP-1 supply (lower margin) through Novo Nordisk (Wegovy, Ozempic) and Eli Lilly (Zepbound, Mounjaro) commercial partnerships since Q1 2026. The FTC lawsuit filed July 29 alleging the company shared consumer sensitive health information with Meta Platforms and Snap Inc. through embedded tracking technologies and separately alleging unauthorized billing charges (with Los Angeles County and Utah as co-plaintiffs) remains a substantive overhang. Chief Medical Officer Dr. Anant Vinjamoori's July 23 PCAC harm-reduction testimony framing continues to shape the post-PCAC peptide-strategy narrative.
