News related to:Hims & Hers Health, Inc · 2 min read
Kaplan Fox & Kilsheimer LLP has announced the filing of a class action lawsuit against Hims & Hers Health, Inc. (HIMS), a publicly traded company listed on the New York Stock Exchange. The lawsuit, which was initiated on July 29, 2026, is part of a broader legal action involving the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), the People of the State of California through Los Angeles County Counsel, and the Utah Division of Consumer Protection.
According to the lawsuit, Hims & Hers is accused of failing to clearly disclose to consumers that they are charged for prescriptions almost immediately after submitting an intake form, despite being informed that they would have the opportunity to consult with a medical provider to find a treatment that is "right for them." The FTC also alleges that the company has made it difficult for consumers to cancel subscriptions and has misled them about the privacy of their health information. The FTC further claims that Hims & Hers shared consumers' health information with Meta, Snap, and other third parties.
The lawsuit alleges that throughout the period from August 4, 2025, to July 29, 2026, Hims & Hers made materially false and misleading statements, and failed to disclose material adverse facts to investors. Specifically, the company was accused of sharing consumer health information with third-party advertising platforms, charging consumers for prescriptions almost immediately after intake, and facing regulatory scrutiny as a result of these practices. The lawsuit suggests that these actions increased the likelihood of the company incurring fees and penalties.
Following the news of the lawsuit, Hims & Hers stock experienced a significant drop, falling $4.32 per share, or 14.73%, to close at $25.00 per share on July 29, 2026.
