  1. Hims & Hers shares sink after Q3 loss, sales miss and lowered guidance

    Hims & Hers reported a surprise third-quarter loss and revenue below expectations, then cut its full-year outlook. The telehealth company cited climbing costs that are weighing on profitability. Shares extended losses in after-hours trading as investors digested the earnings stumble. The results mark a sharp reversal from prior quarters of steady growth and raise questions about the sustainability of its customer acquisition strategy.

    Why it matters

    The company had been a pandemic-era darling, expanding from hair-loss and sexual-health prescriptions into weight-loss and mental-health services. Recent quarters showed accelerating revenue but also rising marketing spend. The Q3 miss and guidance cut suggest that cost discipline is becoming a larger concern than top-line growth. Analysts are now focusing on whether the new weight-loss offerings can deliver margin improvement.

    Still unconfirmed
