Q&A highlights
Q: What are the top three to four strategies that will allow Hims to reach tens of millions of subscribers on this platform and what is the rough time frame?
A: Andrew said strategies include expanding categories and specialties, broadening personalized treatments, and investing in technology. Ambitious hope is to achieve in the next five to six years.
Q: How is Hims leveraging AI and data analytics to enhance telehealth offerings and personalized treatments and drive efficiency? Are there plans for AI - driven diagnostics or automation?
A: Andrew said AI is at the core, the platform has a powerful data set, with investments in MedMatch for diagnostics and long - term patient outcome management, and plans for AI - driven capabilities.
Q: Can you talk about the mechanics around assessing new patients for personalized semaglutide dosing?
A: Andrew said they look at existing situation, side effect sensitivities, goal weight loss, and use EMR and MedMatch to make decisions between patient and provider.
Q: How does the short ending impact the competitive setup and dynamics among platforms offering compounded semaglutide?
A: Andrew said most parties offering commercial available doses of semaglutide will seek alternatives, and outside the next quarter, with commercial doses coming out, fewer players will be in the market.
Q: Rough expectations for liraglutide launch timing and pricing strategy?
A: Andrew said liraglutide expected midyear or early second half; pricing ambition is to make it affordable, but liraglutide has higher costs due to more medication and needles, likely in couple of hundred buck range initially.
Q: Any thoughts on timing for menopause testing and growth versus revenue per sub?
A: Andrew said hope to get whole body testing in the first half of the year; Yemi said expected continued expansion of revenue per sub with multi - condition treatments and adoption of oral and liraglutide.
