What happened?
On July 29, 2026, the Federal Trade Commission, joined by the State of Utah and Los Angeles County (representing California), filed a federal complaint against Hims & Hers Health in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California, alleging deceptive and unlawful privacy practices — including sharing sensitive user health data with third-party advertisers Meta Platforms (Facebook) and Snap via embedded tracking pixels and customer list matching despite marketing emphasizing strict privacy — as well as deceptive billing and subscription-cancellation practices.
On this news, shares of Hims & Hers fell $4.32, or 14.73%, to close at $25.00 per share on July 29, 2026, thereby injuring investors.
What is the Hims & Hers Health, Inc. lawsuit about?
The Hims & Hers Health, Inc. securities lawsuit alleges that, between August 4, 2025 and July 29, 2026, defendants made materially false and/or misleading statements and failed to disclose material adverse facts about Hims & Hers Health, Inc.'s business, operations, and prospects. Specifically, the complaint alleges defendants failed to disclose that: (1) the Company shared consumers' health information with third-party advertising platforms; (2) the Company charges consumers for prescriptions almost immediately after they submit an intake form, despite telling consumers that they will be able to consult with a medical provider to find a treatment that is "right for them"; (3) the foregoing conduct subjected the Company to regulatory scrutiny; (4) as a result of the foregoing, the Company was reasonably likely to incur fees and penalties; and (5) as a result, defendants' positive statements about Hims & Hers Health, Inc.'s business, operations, and prospects were materially misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis.
"The complaint filed against Hims & Hers Health, Inc. alleges that, among other things, the Company failed to disclose that the Company shared consumers' health information with third-party advertising platforms. For investors who bought during the class period, the November 2, 2026 deadline is the first major step in this case," said Charles H. Linehan, Partner at Glancy Prongay Wolke & Rotter LLP.
