Why is Hims & Hers Health (HIMS) stock moving?
HIMS fell another 9% to about $20.80 in early trading on Nov 10, after closing at $22.94 on Nov 9. Q3 revenue rose 49% to $890.4M, in line with expectations. A $0.14 per share loss missed the expected $0.06 profit, and gross margin fell to 57% from 74%. Full-year adjusted EBITDA guidance was cut to $257M-$277M, and Q4 revenue guidance was below consensus. Subscribers slipped about 100,000 sequentially to roughly 2.8M, partly because of planned cuts to marketing. Positives include international revenue guidance raised to at least $650M, free cash flow of $26M and cash from operations of $65M. Management also expects subscriber growth to recover from Q1. Analysts are cautious: Needham kept a Buy but cut its target to $32 from $42, and the average target of $31.15 is well above the price. Volume was 50M shares on Nov 9 and has already reached 11M in the first 15 minutes of Nov 10. The stock is far below its recent range of $25-$30 and carries a beta of about 2.5. The sell-off is heavy and may be due for a bounce, but the trend and the earnings revisions are negative.

About $622 million came from the US and about $131 million from international markets. The company's full-year 2026 revenue forecast is about $3.1–3.3 billion. Gross margins have narrowed to about 64%, and the company reported a net loss in Q2 2026.
