Major Class Action Lawsuit Filed Against Hims & Hers Health, Inc. for Securities Fraud Allegations
Major Class Action Lawsuit Filed Against Hims & Hers Health, Inc.
On September 11, 2026, Kessler Topaz Meltzer & Check, LLP, a prominent national law firm specializing in securities litigation, announced the filing of a class action lawsuit against Hims & Hers Health, Inc. (NYSE: HIMS). This legal action is directed at investors who purchased HIMS securities between August 4, 2025, and July 29, 2026. The allegations underline critical concerns regarding the company’s privacy practices and the misrepresentation of its operational status.
Background of the Allegations
The suit accuses Hims of securities fraud through significantly misleading statements and omissions related to the company’s privacy and operational protocols. According to the complaint, key claims include:
1. Hims allegedly shared sensitive health information of its consumers with third-party advertising platforms.
2. The company reportedly charged consumers for prescriptions immediately upon submitting an intake form, contrary to their claims that they would have consultations to determine appropriate treatments.
3. These actions exposed Hims to potential regulatory penalties, contradicting positive assertions made by its executives about the company's standing and future prospects.
The Impact of FTC Action
The situation escalated dramatically on July 29, 2026, when the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) filed its own lawsuit against Hims. The FTC accused the company of engaging in "deceptive and unlawful privacy practices," including the illicit sharing of customers’ medical details with advertisers such as Snap and Meta Platforms. This news prompted a drastic decline in HIMS’s stock price, dropping by 14.73%, equating to a loss of $4.32 per share, which closed at $25.00 on the same day.
