Hims & Hers Health Inc.

Hims & Hers quarterly update comes on the same day when FedEx also published market-beating results as COVID-19 fuelled demand for its delivery business.

Hims & Hers’ guidance for the first quarter

For the fiscal first quarter, Hims & Hers now forecasts its revenue to fall in the range of £139.84 million to £147.01 million. The U.S. company expects up to £32.27 million of adjusted EBITDA in Q1.

Chief Executive Andrew Dudum commented on the earnings report on Thursday and said:

“During the fourth quarter, with the 2020 election and a particularly unique holiday season as the backdrop, we saw advertising rates spike, so we took deliberate and careful steps to manage our expenses in the fourth quarter, which led to moderate quarter-over-quarter sales growth while still exceeding our full-year 2020 revenue plan.”

Hims & Hers performed largely upbeat in the stock market last year with an annual gain of close to 45%. At the time of writing, the company that sells personal care products has a market capitalisation of £2.09 billion.
