Hims & Hers Health, Inc. Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2025 Financial Results
SAN FRANCISCO--( BUSINESS WIRE)--Hims & Hers Health, Inc. (“Hims & Hers” or the “Company”, NYSE: HIMS), the leading health and wellness platform, today announced financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2025 in a shareholder letter that is posted at investors.hims.com.
“More than 2.5 million subscribers now rely on us for a healthcare experience that is both accessible and deeply personal – and we believe we’re well on our way to becoming the global leader in consumer health,” said Andrew Dudum, co-founder and CEO. “In 2025, we made it possible for more customers across the world to depend on us for access to care across an expanding range of conditions. From launching hormone therapies and diagnostics, introducing Labs to unlock deeper health insights, and taking meaningful steps to grow internationally, the investments we’re making today position us to set a new standard in healthcare for people everywhere. The continued growth and diversification of our platform is helping to create a world where proactive, preventative, and personalized care can feel like a luxury without actually costing like one.”
“Our financial results in 2025 demonstrate the power of scaling a deeply personalized consumer health platform,” said Yemi Okupe, Chief Financial Officer. “Revenue grew 59% year-over-year to $2.35 billion as we expanded our subscriber base and increased engagement across specialties by bringing new sources of value to millions of customers. With a strong balance sheet and robust operating cash flow from tenured specialties in our domestic operations, we have the flexibility to invest in scaling new specialties, advancing our technology and infrastructure, and expanding internationally, all supporting our path toward our 2030 targets of at least $6.5 billion in revenue and $1.3 billion in Adjusted EBITDA.”

Fourth Quarter 2025 Financial Highlights
Full Year 2025 Financial Highlights
Reconciliations of Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow, non-GAAP measures, to net income and net cash provided by operating activities, respectively, their most comparable financial measures under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”), have been provided in this press release in the accompanying tables. Additional information about Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow is also included below under the heading “Non-GAAP Financial Measures”.
Financial Outlook 2
Hims & Hers is providing the following guidance:
For the first quarter 2026, we expect:
For the full year 2026, we expect:
The guidance provided above constitutes forward-looking statements and actual results may differ materially. Refer to the “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” safe harbor section below for information on the factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from these forward-looking statements.
We have relied upon the exception in Item 10(e)(1)(i)(B) of Regulation S-K and have not reconciled forward-looking Adjusted EBITDA to its most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure, net income or loss, because we cannot predict with reasonable certainty the ultimate outcome of certain components of such reconciliations, including market-related assumptions that are not within our control, or others that may arise, without unreasonable effort. For these reasons, we are unable to assess the probable significance of the unavailable information, which could materially impact the amount of future net income or loss. See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for additional important information regarding Adjusted EBITDA.

This press release includes forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology, including the words “believes,” “estimates,” “anticipates,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “assumes,” “may,” “will,” “likely,” “potential,” “projects,” “predicts,” “continue,” “goal,” “strategy,” “future,” “forecast,” “target,” “outlook,” “opportunity,” “confidence,” “foundation,” “groundwork,” or “should,” or, in each case, their negative or other variations or comparable terminology.

These statements are based on management’s current expectations, but actual results may differ materially due to various factors.
Forward-looking statements are neither historical facts nor assurances of future performance. Instead, the forward-looking statements contained in this press release are based on our current expectations, assumptions, and beliefs concerning future developments and their potential effects on us. Future developments affecting us may not be those that we have anticipated. These forward-looking statements involve a number of risks, uncertainties (some of which are beyond our control) and other assumptions that may cause actual results or performance to be materially different from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, those factors described in the Risk Factors and other sections of our most recently filed Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, our most recently filed Annual Report on Form 10-K, and other current and periodic reports we file from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”).
Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should any of our assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary in material respects from those projected in these forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements contained in this press release are made only as of February 23, 2026. We undertake no obligation (and expressly disclaim any obligation) to update or revise any forward-looking statements, or to update the reasons actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required under applicable securities laws.
By their nature, forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties because they relate to events and depend on circumstances that may or may not occur in the future. We caution you that forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and that our actual results of operations, financial condition and liquidity, and developments in the industry in which we operate may differ materially from those made in or suggested by the forward-looking statements contained in reports we have filed or will file with the Commission, including our most recently filed Annual Report on Form 10-K, our most recently filed Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and other current and periodic reports we file from time to time. In addition, even if our results of operations, financial condition and liquidity, and developments in the industry in which we operate are consistent with the forward-looking statements contained in such reports, those results or developments may not be indicative of results or developments in subsequent periods.
Key Business Metrics
We continually and strategically review our key business metrics to ensure that they are helpful in managing or monitoring the performance of our business as it grows, which may result in changes in our key business metrics over time. Historically, we have disaggregated our total revenue between Online Revenue and Wholesale Revenue (both defined below). During 2025, as a result of completed acquisitions, we launched operations in the European Union and Canada, and deepened our presence in the United Kingdom. We expect to continue to expand internationally, including in connection with our proposed acquisition of Eucalyptus. As a result, we are now disaggregating our total revenue between United States Revenue and Rest of the World Revenue (both defined below). Online Revenue and Wholesale Revenue have become a less relevant disaggregation of our total revenue, and we anticipate no longer reporting these financial results beginning with the three months ending March 31, 2026. Additionally, Monthly Online Revenue per Average Subscriber (as defined below) has become less relevant for our business. We anticipate no longer reporting this metric beginning with the three months ending March 31, 2026, and are instead reporting Monthly Revenue per Average Subscriber, as defined below.
“United States Revenue” represents the sales of products and services by our consolidated legal entities operating within jurisdictions located inside of the United States.
“Rest of the World Revenue” represents the sales of products and services by our consolidated legal entities operating within jurisdictions located outside of the United States.
“Online Revenue” represents the sales of products and services on our platform, net of refunds, credits, and chargebacks, and includes revenue recognition adjustments recorded pursuant to U.S. GAAP, primarily relating to deferred revenue and returns reserve. Online Revenue is generated by selling directly to consumers through our websites and mobile applications. Our Online Revenue consists of products and services purchased by customers directly through our online platform. The majority of our Online Revenue is subscription-based, where customers agree to be billed on a recurring basis to have products and services automatically delivered to them. Online Revenue also includes sales from customers who have made one-time purchases.
“Wholesale Revenue” represents non-prescription product sales to retailers through wholesale purchasing agreements. Wholesale Revenue also includes non-prescription product sales to third-party platforms through consignment arrangements. In addition to being revenue generative and profitable, wholesale partnerships and consignment arrangements have the added benefit of generating brand awareness with new customers in physical environments and on third-party platforms.
“Subscribers” are customers who have one or more “Subscriptions” pursuant to which they have agreed to be automatically billed on a recurring basis at a defined cadence. The Subscription billing cadence is typically defined as a number of days (for example, billed every 30 days or every 90 days), which are excluded from our reporting when payment has not occurred at the contracted billing cadence. Subscribers can cancel or snooze Subscriptions in between billing periods to stop receiving additional products and/or services and can reactivate Subscriptions to continue receiving additional products and/or services. Customers who have made one-time purchases are not considered Subscribers.
“Monthly Revenue per Average Subscriber” is defined as total revenue divided by “Average Subscribers”, which amount is then further divided by the number of months in a period. “Average Subscribers” are calculated as the sum of the Subscribers at the beginning and end of a given period divided by 2.
“Monthly Online Revenue per Average Subscriber” is defined as Online Revenue divided by Average Subscribers, which amount is then further divided by the number of months in a period.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to our financial results determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, we present Adjusted EBITDA (which is a non-GAAP financial measure), Adjusted EBITDA margin (which is a non-GAAP ratio), and Free Cash Flow (which is a non-GAAP financial measure) each as defined below. We use Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, and Free Cash Flow to evaluate our ongoing operations and for internal planning and forecasting purposes. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, and Free Cash Flow, when taken together with the corresponding U.S. GAAP financial measures, provide meaningful supplemental information regarding our performance by excluding certain items that may not be indicative of our business, results of operations, or outlook. We consider Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, and Free Cash Flow to be important measures because they help illustrate underlying trends in our business and our historical operating performance on a more consistent basis. We believe that the use of Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, and Free Cash Flow is helpful to our investors as they are used by management in assessing the health of our business, our operating performance, and our liquidity.
However, non-GAAP financial information is presented for supplemental informational purposes only, has limitations as an analytical tool, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In addition, other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate similarly-titled non-GAAP financial measures or ratios differently or may use other financial measures or ratios to evaluate their performance, all of which could reduce the usefulness of Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, and Free Cash Flow as tools for comparison. Reconciliations are provided below to the most directly comparable financial measures stated in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Investors are encouraged to review our U.S. GAAP financial measures and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business.
Adjusted EBITDA is a key performance measure that our management uses to assess our operating performance. Because Adjusted EBITDA facilitates internal comparisons of our historical operating performance on a more consistent basis, we use this measure for business planning purposes. “Adjusted EBITDA” is defined as net income before stock-based compensation, depreciation and amortization, acquisition and transaction-related costs (which includes (i) consideration paid for employee and nonemployee compensation with vesting requirements incurred directly as a result of acquisitions, and (ii) transaction professional services), change in fair value of liabilities, payroll tax expense related to stock-based compensation, impairment of long-lived assets, legal settlement expenses that are considered non-recurring, change in fair value of equity securities, income taxes, and interest income and expense, net. “Adjusted EBITDA margin” is defined as Adjusted EBITDA divided by revenue.
In the second quarter of 2025, we revised our definition of Adjusted EBITDA to include payroll tax expense related to stock-based compensation, which comprises employer taxes incurred upon vesting of restricted stock units and upon exercise of nonqualified stock options. As a result of recent trends in our stock price, this amount was not considered significant for prior periods and, accordingly, prior period disclosures were not recast to conform to the current presentation.
Some of the limitations of Adjusted EBITDA include (i) Adjusted EBITDA does not properly reflect capital commitments to be paid in the future, and (ii) although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the underlying assets may need to be replaced and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect these capital expenditures. In evaluating Adjusted EBITDA, you should be aware that in the future we will incur expenses similar to the adjustments in this presentation. Our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by these expenses or any unusual or non-recurring items. We compensate for these limitations by providing specific information regarding the U.S. GAAP items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA. When evaluating our performance, you should consider Adjusted EBITDA in addition to, and not as a substitute for, other financial performance measures, including our net income and other U.S. GAAP results.

Free Cash Flow is a key performance measure that our management uses to assess our liquidity. Because Free Cash Flow facilitates internal comparisons of our historical liquidity on a more consistent basis, we use this measure for business planning purposes. “Free Cash Flow” is defined as net cash provided by operating activities, less purchases of property, equipment, and intangible assets and investment in website development and internal-use software in investing activities.
Some of the limitations of Free Cash Flow include (i) Free Cash Flow does not represent our residual cash flow for discretionary expenditures and our non-discretionary commitments, and (ii) Free Cash Flow includes capital expenditures, the benefits of which may be realized in periods subsequent to those in which the expenditures took place. In evaluating Free Cash Flow, you should be aware that in the future we will have cash outflows similar to the adjustments in this presentation. Our presentation of Free Cash Flow should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by these cash outflows or any unusual or non-recurring items. When evaluating our performance, you should consider Free Cash Flow in addition to, and not as a substitute for, other financial performance measures, including our net cash provided by operating activities and other U.S. GAAP results.
