Published: July 23, 2025 by: Seeking Alpha

Hims & Hers: The Novo Nordisk Breakup Changes Nothing
HIMS, NVO
Published: June 24, 2025 by: Seeking Alpha
Sentiment: Positive

The Novo Nordisk partnership ending does not alter my long-term bullish thesis on HIMS; the company is much more than just a GLP-1 play. HIMS' core value lies in its broad treatment offerings and disruptive model, not in partnerships with big pharma like NVO. Legal risks remain, but I believe HIMS is well-positioned to defend itself, and no legal action has been initiated by NVO yet.
