GAR Capital Take 💡

HIMS has been one of our biggest winners in 2025 and still sits firmly in our Top 10 Stock Picks.

Yes, Q3 guidance disappointed and the GLP-1 headlines add noise, but the growth story is intact with revenue up +73% YoY and profitability improving sharply.

For long-term holders: this looks more like a shakeout than the end of the trend.
For traders: we’re watching $45 support closely for a potential high-reward bounce entry.


Bottom line:

✅ +175% YTD performance despite this pullback
✅ Strong revenue growth & profitability improvements
⚠️ Regulatory headwinds and guidance miss = near-term volatility
💎 Long-term story still bullish, but ideal buys come on weakness
