Hims & Hers Health, Inc. (“Hims & Hers”, NYSE: HIMS), a multi-specialty telehealth platform that connects consumers to licensed healthcare professionals, today reported financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ending December 31, 2020.

“We closed out this important year for Hims & Hers on a high note, meeting or exceeding the expectations for 2020 performance in our roadshow this past fall, including 80% revenue growth year-over-year and improved gross margins,” said Andrew Dudum, CEO and co-founder of Hims & Hers. “We also made smart investments that set us up well to drive future growth in 2021 as we work to create the new front door to the healthcare system.”

Mr. Dudum continued, “During the fourth quarter, with the 2020 election and a particularly unique holiday season as the backdrop, we saw advertising rates spike, so we took deliberate and careful steps to manage our expenses in the fourth quarter, which led to moderate quarter-over-quarter sales growth while still exceeding our full-year 2020 revenue plan. These dynamics have normalized in the first quarter and we are seeing improved opportunities to invest in growth. We’ve started 2021 off strong and are raising our full year forecast accordingly. This is an organization built on solid fundamentals and favorable business characteristics and I’m incredibly confident in our ability to deliver on our vision of helping more people with a wider range of conditions access great, affordable care.”

As previously announced, on January 20, 2021, Hims, Inc. and Oaktree Acquisition Corp. (“OAC”) completed their merger (the “Merger”). Immediately following the Merger, OAC changed its name to Hims & Hers Health, Inc. and its Class A common stock and warrants were listed on the NYSE under the new trading symbols of “HIMS” and “HIMS WS,” respectively. As of January 31, 2021, Hims & Hers had approximately $340 million of cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments on the balance sheet and no debt outstanding.

A reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, to net loss, its most comparable financial measure under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”), has been provided in this press release in the accompanying tables. Additional information about Adjusted EBITDA is also included below under the heading “Non-GAAP Financial Measures”.

Financial Outlook

Hims & Hers provides guidance based on current market conditions and expectations for revenue and Adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure.

For the first-quarter 2021, we expect:

• Revenue to be in the range of $48 million to $50 million.
• Adjusted EBITDA to be in the range of $(9.5) million to $(11.5) million.

For the full-year 2021, we expect:

• Revenue to be in the range of $195 million to $205 million.
• Adjusted EBITDA to be in the range of $(35) million to $(45) million.

The guidance provided above constitutes forward-looking statements and actual results may differ materially. Refer to the “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” safe harbor section below for information on the factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from these forward-looking statements.

We have not reconciled forward-looking Adjusted EBITDA to its most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure, net loss, because we cannot predict with reasonable certainty the ultimate outcome of certain components of such reconciliations, including market-related assumptions that are not within our control, or others that may arise, without unreasonable effort. For these reasons, we are unable to assess the probable significance of the unavailable information, which could materially impact the amount of future net loss. See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for additional important information regarding Adjusted EBITDA.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures:

In addition to our financial results determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, we present Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure. We use Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate our ongoing operations and for internal planning and forecasting purposes. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA, when taken together with the corresponding U.S. GAAP financial measure, provides meaningful supplemental information regarding our performance by excluding certain items that may not be indicative of our business, results of operations, or outlook. We consider Adjusted EBITDA to be an important measure because it helps illustrate underlying trends in our business and our historical operating performance on a more consistent basis. We believe that the use of Adjusted EBITDA is helpful to our investors as it is a metric used by management in assessing the health of our business and our operating performance.

However, non-GAAP financial information is presented for supplemental informational purposes only, has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In addition, other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures differently or may use other measures to evaluate their performance, all of which could reduce the usefulness of our non-GAAP financial measures as tools for comparison. A reconciliation is provided below for Adjusted EBITDA to net loss, the most directly comparable financial measure stated in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Investors are encouraged to review net loss and the reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net loss, and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business.

Adjusted EBITDA is a key performance measure that our management uses to assess our operating performance. Because Adjusted EBITDA facilitates internal comparisons of our historical operating performance on a more consistent basis, we use this measure for business planning purposes. “Adjusted EBITDA” is defined as net loss before depreciation and amortization, provision for income taxes, interest income, interest expense, amortization of debt issuance costs, stock-based compensation, and change in fair value of warrant liability.
