Faruqi & Faruqi Launches Investigation into Hims & Hers Health Shareholder Claims
In recent developments, Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP, a prominent national securities law firm, has initiated an investigation concerning potential claims made by investors against Hims & Hers Health, Inc. The investigation comes on the heels of significant allegations that could pose risks for the company's stockholders. Hims & Hers, a health and wellness brand focused on telehealth services, is being scrutinized for possibly engaging in deceptive practices related to their drug sales.
The firm is particularly interested in cases involving investors who acquired securities in Hims between April 29 and June 22, 2025. According to Faruqi & Faruqi, this investigation is warranted due to potentially misleading statements attributed to the company's executives, which may have affected investor decisions leading to substantial financial losses. Specifically, the firm is examining whether Hims violated federal securities laws, including allegations that it misrepresented the safety and legitimacy of certain drugs marketed to consumers.
As a central part of these allegations, it's reported that Hims & Hers Health was involved in what is called 'deceptive promotion' of unregulated alternatives to FDA-approved drugs, potentially putting patient safety at risk. Notably, claims were made that their partnership with pharmaceutical giant Novo Nordisk was compromised due to these activities. Investors were notably alarmed when Novo Nordisk publicly announced the termination of its collaboration with Hims on June 23, 2025. This decision followed claims that Hims was selling compounded drugs under the false premise of personalization, further contributing to the growing worries about the company's ethics and operational practices.
The fallout from these revelations was swift; shares of Hims plummeted by over 34.6%, closing at $41.98 on the day of the announcement. The steep decline raised red flags among investors, urging many to reconsider their holdings in the company and their rights as shareholders.
Faruqi & Faruqi emphasizes the importance of acting quickly. Interested investors are encouraged to reach out to the firm's attorney, Josh Wilson, directly if they believe they suffered losses during the noted time frame. Potential plaintiffs are being reminded that there is an impending deadline of August 25, 2025, to seek the role of lead plaintiff in the ongoing federal securities class action against Hims. The role of the lead plaintiff is crucial as it is generally the investor with the highest financial stake in the case who can adequately represent the interests of the broader shareholder group.
The implications of this case could extend far beyond legal repercussions for Hims & Hers. It may set a precedent for how telehealth companies are regulated and held accountable for their marketing practices in the rapidly evolving healthcare landscape. Investors are urged to stay informed as the situation develops, especially those who may have insights or information regarding Hims' promotional practices.

This investigation not only underscores the risks involved in investing in high-growth sectors like telehealth but also highlights the critical role that legal standards play in protecting investors' rights. As this situation continues to unfold, the national securities law firm remains committed to uncovering the truth behind Hims & Hers Health's operational claims and ensuring that justice is served for affected shareholders.
