Hims & Hers looks good on paper, but past revenue growth does not guarantee future growth and margins are falling, which is very bad. Its peptides story could rerate the stock if executed, but it brings another regulatory overhang: peptides will be in regulation headlines every day and the stock will trade on them. x.com 

Hims & Hers is executing poorly despite its potential, and its appeal as a retail darling is fading after a rough first quarter. Per @himshouse, revenue was $608 million versus $617 million expected, EPS was -$0.40 versus $0.03 expected, and gross margin fell to 65% from 73% a year earlier, while subscribers grew 9% to 2.584 million. CEO Andrew Dudum can do better. x.com 

Hims & Hers' peptide capabilities may be underappreciated, setting up a strong bounce after peptide news. Per @riyadosofian, it is the only telehealth company with a peptide facility and global distribution system. A strong bounce is expected now as the stock holds outside its wedge. x.com  x.com 

Hims & Hers suffers from bad management, and government pressure is squeezing its pharma margins. x.com 

Hims & Hers is a meme stock, not a fundamental story, after missing EPS by 1,440%, with earnings down 300% year over year and 600% quarter over quarter. The company pays influencers to pump the stock, and even a move to $200 would not change that view. x.com  x.com 

Hims & Hers is a sentiment-driven stock, and peptide enthusiasm should return as actual peptide revenue gets closer. The peptide excitement has faded as expected, leaving shares around $27, an attractive fundamental setup. x.com 

Hims & Hers' peptide business looks undifferentiated with relatively low barriers to entry, since nothing about providing peptides appears proprietary. Its edge would have to be scale and distribution, and it is not clear it is far ahead of other telehealth companies there. @JonahLupton notes Barron's said Hims could own 20% of the peptide market. x.com 

Hims & Hers is not a $100 stock yet, because growth is slowing and there is no new driver on the scale of GLP-1. Customer acquisition and conversion are slowing and average spend per user is declining, which quarter-over-quarter figures show better than the 40%+ year-over-year narrative. Guidance was narrowed and comparisons get harder. Investing on past strong growth is looking backward. Hims is a great company, but the stock will take time to reach new highs. x.com 

Hims & Hers' newly previewed Peptides+ offering could add a growth vertical to its healthcare platform. Management plans access to sermorelin, glutathione and NAD+; recent regulatory developments may also open a path for BPC-157 and TB-500, subject to further conditions. Rollout and commercial opportunity remain unproven, and margins and execution are still risks. x.com 

Hims & Hers isn't worth owning because of its management: a leader who can pump and then dump the stock is not a trustworthy type. Zeta Global is the preferable alternative. x.com
