What Happened?

Hims & Hers stock (HIMS) surged nearly 50% after Novo Nordisk dropped its patent lawsuit against the telehealth company and struck a partnership deal instead.

Under the new agreement, Hims will sell Novo’s branded weight loss medications, including Ozempic and Wegovy (both forms of semaglutide), at the same prices offered by other telehealth platforms.

In return, Hims agreed to stop advertising compounded GLP-1 drugs on its platform and reserve compounding only for rare cases where customization is medically necessary.

“We have decided to drop the current court proceedings,” Novo Nordisk CEO Mike Doustdar told CNBC. “Hims & Hers have agreed that upon receiving our products, they will no longer advertise, promote, market compounded products to the masses.”

The lawsuit stemmed from Hims’ February announcement that it would sell a copycat Wegovy pill for $49, roughly $100 cheaper than Novo’s branded version.

Hims quickly pulled the pill after facing backlash from both Novo and the FDA, which promised to crack down on compounding pharmacies exploiting regulatory loopholes.

Hims had profited significantly by selling compounded versions of semaglutide, claiming the drugs were “personalized” and therefore legal despite semaglutide’s patent protection lasting until 2032.
