How GLP-1s elevated Hims — and brought it back down to earth

Here’s a look at how the company’s GLP-1 business has sent the stock on a wild ride.

Hims & Hers executives spent much of its Monday earnings report assuring investors that the company is more than knockoff weight-loss drugs, a product line that has stimulated growth in recent years but also stirred legal troubles recently.

The majority of its revenue is from non-GLP-1 offerings, the company said in its shareholder letter. Only a small minority of its 2.5 million subscribers are taking compounded GLP-1s, CEO Andrew Dudum told analysts.

The company does not break down its sales by treatment segment. The last GLP-1 sales figure it gave was in Q2 2025, which showed that GLP-1s made up $420 million of its $1.1 billion in sales for the first half of 2025, or about 38%.

Hims & Hers has always been and continues to be more than one treatment, Dudum said Monday.

But buried in its annual report, the company disclosed that it is under investigation by Securities and Exchange Commission. The agency asked it to preserve certain documents and information concerning the Company’s public statements and disclosures regarding compounded semaglutide and related business relationships.

That only adds to Hims’ legal troubles: it is facing a patent infringement lawsuit from Novo Nordisk, the drugmaker that makes the weight-loss drugs Hims sells knockoffs of, and a potential inquiry by the Department of Justice.

While the company sees more diverse revenue streams, the market doesnt seem convinced. The stock is down more than 50% for the year and is trading at just about $1 more than it was before the company announced that it would sell GLP-1s.

Heres a look at how the companys GLP-1 business has sent the stock on a wild ride:

Nvidia’s strong results, guidance lift AI ecosystem

Data center stocks Applied Digital, IREN, CoreWeave, and Nebius as well as foundry giant TSMC and optical communications company Corning are catching a bid in after-hours trading thanks to strong results and guidance from Nvidia.

The chip designer’s massive outlook for Q1 sales — with the midpoint at $78 billion, versus a consensus estimate of $72.8 billion — underscores the magnitude of the near-term demand for AI compute and chips. As if the hyperscalers’ massive capex budgets hadn’t already done that!

To be sure, the advances in these stocks in after-hours trading are fairly mild, since most had been on fire in recent sessions in anticipation of a strong quarter.

Joby posts smaller loss, larger cash pile than expected in Q4, says it expects US early operations to begin this year

Air taxi maker Joby Aviation reported its fourth-quarter earnings after the bell on Wednesday. Shares climbed more than 3% in after-hours trading.

The company posted a loss of $0.14 per share, beating estimates of a $0.20 loss.

Joby ended the fourth quarter with $1.41 billion in cash (and cash equivalents), compared to Wall Street expectations of $1.01 billion.

Investors have closely watched Joby’s progress with FAA certification, which will be the determining factor for launching commercial air taxi services in the US. As of the end of Q4, Joby said it is 80% complete with the fourth stage of its five-stage certification process, up from 77% in the third quarter. Joby is 12% complete with the fifth stage, up from 10% in Q3.

Earlier on Wednesday, Joby announced it plans to partner with Uber to offer air taxi rides on the ride-hailing app in Dubai later this year. The companies already partner on Blade helicopter rides.

Joby also said it expects US early operations to begin this year, with the White House’s eVTOL (electric vertical takeoff and landing) Integration Pilot Program “set to select at least five sites for mature eVTOL aircraft to begin operating ahead of Type Certification.”

The Trade Desk plunges on weak Q1 sales guidance

Ad tech platform The Trade Desk offered weak Q1 sales guidance as part of its Q4 earnings numbers, sending the stock down sharply after-hours on Wednesday.

The advertising software company reported:

  • Adjusted Q4 earnings per share of $0.59 vs. the $0.58 consensus estimate, per FactSet.

  • Q4 revenue of $847 million vs. the $840.6 million expectation.

  • Q1 sales guidance of “at least” $678 million vs. Wall Street’s $688.6 million expectation.

The Trade Desk specializes in helping client advertisers shift their ads from traditional linear television toward online streaming services. And the shares posted some impressive gains at times, rising more than 400% over five years starting at the end of 2019.

But the company’s shares have cratered in recent years, in part because of a daunting competitive threat from Amazon’s demand-side advertising platform. Through Wednesday’s close, the stock was down roughly 80% from where it was trading at the end of 2024.

Paramount misses on earnings and revenue in its fourth-quarter report

Paramount Skydance reported underwhelming fourth-quarter earnings after the bell on Wednesday, in the midst of its attempt to win the Warner Bros. Discovery bidding war.

For the last three months of 2025, Paramount reported:

  • An adjusted loss of $0.12 per share, compared to Bloomberg estimates of $0.07 earnings per share.

  • Revenue of $8.1 billion, missing Wall Street’s expectations of $8.15 billion.

Looking ahead, the company expects Q1 revenue of between $7.15 billion and $7.35 billion, below the $7.39 billion Wall Street consensus estimate.

Earlier this week, Paramount hiked its offer for Warner Bros. to $31 per share. Warner’s board, which has rejected Paramount’s acquisition attempts several times in recent months, said it’s reviewing the new bid.

If WBD determines the Paramount deal to be a superior offer, Netflix will have four days to match it, beat it, or exit the process. Paramount shares have fallen 24% since it made its initial offer for WBD in December.
