Hims & Hers Health, Inc. Announces Proposed Convertible Senior Notes Offering to Accelerate Global Expansion and Utilization of AI in Healthcare

Hims & Hers Health, Inc. Announces Proposed Convertible Senior Notes Offering to Accelerate Global Expansion and Utilization of AI in Healthcare

  • Proceeds intended to support Hims & Hers’ global expansion through organic growth and strategic acquisitions, while also fueling deeper investment in AI, diagnostics, and personalized treatments to scale access and meet rising demand for high-quality, personalized care

SAN FRANCISCO–(BUSINESS WIRE)–
Hims & Hers Health, Inc. (“Hims & Hers” or the “Company”, NYSE: HIMS) today announced its intention to offer, subject to market and other conditions, $450 million aggregate principal amount of convertible senior notes due 2030 (the “notes”) in a private offering to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). Hims & Hers also expects to grant the initial purchasers of the notes an option to purchase, for settlement within a period of 13 days from, and including, the date the notes are first issued, up to an additional $67.5 million aggregate principal amount of notes.

Hims & Hers intends to use proceeds from the offering for general corporate purposes, including accelerating global expansion through both organic growth and strategic acquisitions. Hims & Hers has no definitive agreements for any material acquisitions at this time. The funds will also support the technology team, led by newly appointed CTO Mo Elshenawy, to expand the Company’s data pipeline, develop AI tools, and advance personalized treatments to enhance the consumer healthcare experience. In addition, a portion of the net proceeds will be used to fund the cost of entering into the capped call transactions described below. If the initial purchasers exercise their option to purchase additional notes, a portion of the additional proceeds will also be used to fund the cost of entering into the related capped call transactions.

The notes will be senior, unsecured obligations of Hims & Hers, will accrue interest payable semi-annually in arrears and will mature on May 15, 2030, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted. Noteholders will have the right to convert their notes in certain circumstances and during specified periods. Hims & Hers will settle conversions by paying or delivering, as applicable, cash, shares of its Class A common stock or a combination of cash and shares of its Class A common stock, at the Company’s election.

The notes will be redeemable, in whole or in part (subject to certain limitations), for cash at the Company’s option at any time, and from time to time, on or after May 19, 2028 and on or before the 25th scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date, but only if the last reported sale price per share of the Company’s Class A common stock exceeds 130% of the conversion price for a specified period of time and certain other conditions are satisfied. The redemption price will be equal to the principal amount of the notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date.

If certain corporate events that constitute a “fundamental change” occur, then, subject to a limited exception, noteholders may require Hims & Hers to repurchase their notes for cash. The repurchase price will be equal to the principal amount of the notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the applicable repurchase date.

The interest rate, initial conversion rate and other terms of the notes will be determined at the pricing of the offering.

In connection with the pricing of the notes, Hims & Hers expects to enter into privately negotiated capped call transactions with one or more of the initial purchasers or their affiliates and/or one or more other financial institutions (the “option counterparties”). The capped call transactions are expected generally to reduce the potential dilution to the Company’s Class A common stock upon any conversion of the notes and/or offset any potential cash payments Hims & Hers is required to make in excess of the principal amount of converted notes, as the case may be, with such reduction and/or offset subject to a cap.

If the initial purchasers exercise their option to purchase additional notes, then Hims & Hers expects to enter into additional capped call transactions with the option counterparties. In connection with establishing their initial hedges of the capped call transactions, the option counterparties or their respective affiliates expect to enter into various derivative transactions with respect to the Company’s Class A common stock and/or purchase shares of the Company’s Class A common stock concurrently with or shortly after the pricing of the notes. This activity could increase (or reduce the size of any decrease in) the market price of the Company’s Class A common stock or the notes at that time.

In addition, the option counterparties or their respective affiliates may modify their hedge positions by entering into or unwinding various derivatives with respect to the Company’s Class A common stock and/or purchasing or selling the Company’s Hers’s Class A common stock or other securities of Hims & Hers in secondary market transactions following the pricing of the notes and prior to the maturity of the notes (and are likely to do so (x) during any observation period related to a conversion of notes or following any repurchase of notes by Hims & Hers in connection with any redemption or fundamental change or (y) following any other repurchase of notes by the Company if the Company elects to unwind a corresponding portion of the capped call transactions in connection with such repurchase). This activity could also cause or avoid an increase or decrease in the market price of the Company’s Class A common stock or the notes, which could affect the ability to convert the notes, and, to the extent the activity occurs during any observation period related to a conversion of notes, it could affect the number of shares and value of the consideration that noteholders will receive upon conversion of the notes.

The offer and sale of the notes and any shares of Class A common stock issuable upon conversion of the notes have not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act or any other securities laws, and the notes and any such shares cannot be offered or sold except pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and any other applicable securities laws. This press release does not constitute an offer to sell, or the solicitation of an offer to buy, the notes or any shares of Class A common stock issuable upon conversion of the notes, nor will there be any sale of the notes or any such shares, in any state or other jurisdiction in which such offer, sale or solicitation would be unlawful.

About Hims & Hers

Hims & Hers is the leading health and wellness platform on a mission to help the world feel great through the power of better health.

Forward-Looking Statements

Except for historical information, certain statements in this press release, including statements regarding the anticipated terms of the notes being offered, the completion, timing and size of the proposed offering, the intended use of the proceeds and the anticipated terms of, and the effects of entering into, the capped call transactions described above, are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, and are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions about Hims & Hers and its business, including, without limitation, risks and uncertainties related to market conditions, including market interest rates, the trading price and volatility of the Company’s Class A common stock and risks relating to the Company’s business. Hims & Hers may not consummate the proposed offering described in this press release and, if the proposed offering is consummated, cannot provide any assurances regarding the final terms of the offering or the notes or its ability to effectively apply the net proceeds as described above. The forward-looking statements included in this press release speak only as of the date of this press release, and Hims & Hers does not undertake to update the statements included in this press release for subsequent developments, except as may be required by law.

Cognition Therapeutics Reports Topline Results Showing Oral Zervimesine (CT1812) Reduced Lesion Growth in Phase 2 Study in Geographic Atrophy

Zervimesine treatment slowed the rate of GA lesion growth by 28.6% compared to placebo

Observed GA lesion area was reduced by 28.2% at 18 months compared to placebo

Dry AMD results validate zervimesine’s potential across degenerative disease indications

PURCHASE, N.Y., May 08, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Cognition Therapeutics, Inc.  (NASDAQ: CGTX), a clinical-stage company developing drugs that treat neurodegenerative disorders, reported topline results today from the Phase 2 COG2201 ‘MAGNIFY’ trial of zervimesine (CT1812) in adults with geographic atrophy (GA) secondary to dry age-related macular degeneration (dry AMD). The results show zervimesine-treated participants had 28.6% slower GA lesion growth on average and at 18 months, their lesions were 28.2% smaller compared to placebo. The MAGNIFY study (NCT05893537) was concluded, after approximately 100 of the planned 246 participants were enrolled.

“To date, we have observed evidence of robust slowing of disease progression with zervimesine treatment in Phase 2 studies in Alzheimer’s disease and dementia with Lewy bodies,” explained Anthony O. Caggiano, MD, PhD, Cognition Therapeutics’ chief medical officer and head of R&D. “These results in dry AMD represent yet another indication in which zervimesine has potential to slow the progression of disease with a once-daily oral pill. Compared to current treatment options, which require regular clinic visits for intravitreal injections, an effective oral treatment that patients can take at home would be truly transformative.”

GA is characterized by the formation of lesions composed of dead retinal cells and undegraded waste proteins, creating blind spots in central vision. The change in GA lesions was measured using two methods: growth rate and size.

  • Growth rate: in MAGNIFY, a slope analysis showed that the trajectory of GA had slowed by 28.6% in participants treated with zervimesine.
  • Size: at 18 months, the mean lesion size for zervimesine-treated participants was 28.2% smaller than placebo-treated. See Figure 1.

We believe these topline results compare favorably to published data from approved injectable complement inhibitors.

Approximately 2/3 of patients completed 12 months of dosing and 1/3 completed 18 months of dosing.

Additional data, including safety, demographics, and visual and anatomic outcomes are still being analyzed and will be reported at a later date. In addition, Cognition plans to submit complete findings for presentation at a medical meeting later this year.

“Dry AMD is now the third indication in which we have shown efficacy signals with a once-daily oral drug,” added Lisa Ricciardi, Cognition Therapeutics’ president and CEO. “We believe zervimesine has the potential to be used as a monotherapy or in combination with existing medications. This would allow physicians the flexibility to tailor treatment regimens for their patients. Importantly it would also allow patients who are not appropriate for injectables to have access to treatment. With the right partner and development plan, we believe zervimesine could be a treatment breakthrough in these large, underserved diseases.”

About the MAGNIFY Study (COG2201) 

The MAGNIFY study was a double-masked, placebo-controlled Phase 2 clinical trial designed to enroll 246 adults with geographic atrophy (GA) secondary to dry age-related macular degeneration (dry AMD). Participants were evenly randomized to receive either placebo or 200 mg of once-daily oral zervimesine. The MAGNIFY study was concluded after approximately 100 of the planned 246 participants were enrolled. Participants in MAGNIFY were assessed for safety and tolerability, changes in GA lesion size and growth rate, changes in visual acuity and other anatomic and visual measures.  

The decision to voluntarily conclude the MAGNIFY study prior to its intended enrollment goal has allowed the Company to focus resources on its ongoing programs in Alzheimer’s and DLB.

About Geographic Atrophy Secondary to Dry AMD  

Dry AMD is the more prevalent of two forms of age-related macular degeneration and accounts for up to 90% of cases. Dry AMD is caused by damage and loss of light-sensing cells in the macula, the part of the retina responsible for central vision. The gradual loss of central vision associated with dry AMD can present limitations in reading and driving. As the disease progresses in severity to geographic atrophy, lesions form on the macula that create a blind spot in central vision. These lesions grow over time leading to irreversible loss of central vision.    
  
About Zervimesine (CT1812) 
Zervimesine (CT1812) is an investigational oral, once-daily pill being developed for the treatment of CNS diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease and dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB). While these diseases have different symptoms, both are associated with the buildup of certain proteins in the brain – Aβ and ɑ-synuclein.  As these proteins bind to neurons, they can damage and ultimately destroy the neurons. This results in a progressive loss in a person’s ability to learn, recall memories, move efficiently, or communicate. These diseases progress relentlessly and ultimately result in death. If zervimesine can interrupt the toxic effects of these proteins, it may be able to slow progression of disease and improve the lives of those suffering from Alzheimer’s and DLB. Zervimesine has been generally well tolerated in clinical studies to date.

The USAN Council has adopted zervimesine as the United States Adopted Name (USAN) for CT1812.

About Cognition Therapeutics, Inc.  

Cognition Therapeutics, Inc., is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company discovering and developing innovative, small molecule therapeutics targeting age-related degenerative disorders of the central nervous system. We are currently investigating our lead candidate, zervimesine (CT1812), in clinical programs in dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) and Alzheimer’s disease, including the ongoing START study (NCT05531656) in early Alzheimer’s disease. We believe zervimesine can regulate pathways that are impaired in these diseases though its interaction with the sigma-2 receptor, a mechanism that is functionally distinct from other approaches for the treatment of degenerative diseases. More about Cognition Therapeutics and our pipeline can be found at https://cogrx.com.

Altimmune Presents New Analyses Predicting High Rates of MASH Resolution on Biopsy following Pemvidutide Treatment at the EASL International Liver Congress™

MASH Resolution Index (MASHResInd) model highly predictive of MASH resolution

GAITHERSBURG, Md., May 08, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Altimmune, Inc. (Nasdaq: ALT), a late clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company developing next-generation peptide-based therapeutics for liver and cardiometabolic diseases, today announced the presentation of new analyses at the European Association for the Study of the Liver (EASL) Congress™ in Amsterdam, The Netherlands. The presentation focuses on the use of the MASH Resolution Index (MASHResInd) algorithm to predict MASH resolution on biopsy in patients treated with pemvidutide, Altimmune’s 1:1 GLP-1/glucagon dual receptor agonist.

Developed by Dr. Rohit Loomba, Professor of Medicine, Director of Hepatology, and Vice Chief, Division of Gastroenterology at University of California San Diego, MASHResInd is a composite score incorporating multiple non-invasive tests, including MRI proton-density-fat-fraction (MRI-PDFF), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) levels for predicting MASH resolution on biopsy. Applied to datasets from a previously completed trial with pemvidutide in subjects with metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), the MASHResInd predicted a high probability that MASH resolution would occur with pemvidutide treatment.

“These findings underscore the potential of pemvidutide to achieve meaningful histologic improvements in MASH using non-invasive, reproducible biomarkers,” said Dr. Loomba. “We are encouraged by the significant response in the MASHResInd model, which may suggest a high likelihood of achieving MASH resolution in Altimmune’s IMPACT Phase 2b Trial of pemvidutide.”

Key Data Highlights:

The composite MASHResInd score is a robust, non-invasive marker for liver histology improvement, with potential application across clinical research and practice. In the analyses presented at EASL, 24 weeks of treatment with pemvidutide resulted in MASHResInd responses (defined as an index ≥ -0.67) in 69.2%, 92.3% and 90.9% of subjects receiving 1.2 mg (p<0.05), 1.8 mg (p<0.001), and 2.4 mg (p<0.001) of pemvidutide, respectively, compared with 22.2% in subjects receiving placebo.

“This analysis of patients from our study of pemvidutide in MASLD further reinforces our excitement around the upcoming IMPACT readout, which remains on track to be reported this quarter,” added Scott Harris, M.D., Chief Medical Officer of Altimmune. “Our MASLD trial achieved class-leading reductions in liver fat content, which is recognized to be a primary driver for MASH resolution and fibrosis improvement. The MASHResInd response rates greater than 90% at the 1.8 and 2.4 mg pemvidutide doses give us further confidence in the ability of pemvidutide to achieve statistical significance in the 24-week biopsy-based endpoints of the IMPACT Trial.”

About Pemvidutide

Pemvidutide is a novel, investigational, peptide-based 1:1 GLP-1/glucagon dual receptor agonist in development for the treatment of obesity, MASH, alcohol use disorder (AUD) as well as alcohol liver disease (ALD). Activation of the GLP-1 and glucagon receptors is believed to mimic the complementary effects of diet and exercise on weight loss, with GLP-1 suppressing appetite and glucagon increasing energy expenditure. Glucagon is also recognized as having direct effects on hepatic fat metabolism, which is believed to lead to rapid reductions in levels of liver fat and serum lipids. In clinical trials to date, once-weekly pemvidutide has demonstrated compelling weight loss with class-leading lean mass preservation, and robust reductions in triglycerides, LDL cholesterol, liver fat content and blood pressure. The U.S. FDA has granted Fast Track designation to pemvidutide for the treatment of MASH. Pemvidutide recently completed the MOMENTUM Phase 2 obesity trial and is being studied in the ongoing IMPACT Phase 2b MASH trial. IND applications in AUD and ALD have received FDA clearance with Phase 2 trials to commence in mid-2025.

About Altimmune

Altimmune is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing innovative next-generation peptide-based therapeutics. The Company is developing pemvidutide, a GLP-1/glucagon dual receptor agonist for the treatment of obesity, MASH, alcohol use disorder as well as alcohol related liver disease.
