Predicted vs. what happened
What happened
Reached 43% of the predicted growth at its peak, without hitting the target.
The thesis — published December 4, 2025
Hims & Hers runs a telehealth service that is growing fast: recent sales were about 50% higher than the same quarter last year. But profit per share fell a lot and the stock dropped after earnings, so investors worry about margins and value. Management bought YourBio to add at-home testing, which could make customers use the service more. Overall, excitement is high but the business is not yet consistently profitable, so this is better for short-term traders who accept big swings.
Primary drivers
- Sales grew about 50% compared with last year, showing demand
- Earnings per share fell sharply and shares dropped after results
- Buying YourBio adds at-home testing to the service mix
- Strong market excitement but weaker steady profitability
