Underperform
Reason
BofA lowered the firm's price target on Hims & Hers to $29 from $32 and keeps an Underperform rating on the shares. The firm says 2026 consensus estimates for Hims' sales and EBITDA margins are too high. 2026 is a "big investment year" for Hims & Hers and current Street expectations for EBITDA margin expansion "seem overly optimistic," the analyst tells investors in a research note. BofA sees downside risk to 2026 consensus revenue and EBITDA margins and expects negative earnings revisions to take place over the next few months.

Reason
Citi believes Novo Nordisk's (NVO) announcement this morning that its Wegovy weight loss pill is now broadly available throughout the U.S. will pressure Hims & Hers (HIMS). Hims was again left off Novo's partners list, which includes CVS Health (CVS) and Costco (COST), LifeMD (LFMD) and GoodRx (GDRX), which likely reflects disagreements between Novo and Hims around Him's compounded semaglutide strategy, the analyst tells investors in a research note. Citi thinks Novo's pill launch will put pressure on Hims & Hers' GLP-1 business in 2026. The firm keeps a Sell rating on the shares with a $30 price target. The stock in premarket trading is up 44c to $33.85.
