Stock Track | Hims & Hers Stock Plunges on Concerns Over Weight-Loss Offerings

Stock Track
Nov 09, 2024

Shares of Hims & Hers Health Inc. (HIMS) plummeted by 8.45% on Thursday morning, as concerns arose over the company's ability to maintain its weight-loss offerings if the shortage of GLP-1 drugs, a popular weight-loss medication, comes to an end.

According to analysts at TD Cowen, who recently met with Hims & Hers management, the company believes it can provide a variety of weight-loss solutions, including oral medications, personalized dosages of compounded GLP-1s, branded GLP-1s, and liraglutide, which could ultimately be more affordable than traditional GLP-1 programs.

However, investors appear to be skeptical about the company's ability to maintain its weight-loss platform's growth trajectory if it can no longer offer compounded GLP-1 drugs, which have been in high demand due to the FDA's shortage list.
