HIMS--
The complaint alleges that HIMS engaged in deceptive promotion and selling of illegitimate versions of Wegovy, a drug used for weight loss, which put patient safety at risk. Furthermore, the company did not disclose that there was a substantial risk of termination of its collaboration with Novo Nordisk due to these practices [1][2][3]. The lawsuit further claims that the defendants' positive statements about the company's business, operations, and prospects were materially misleading and lacked a reasonable basis [1][2][3].
The termination of the collaboration with Novo Nordisk on June 23, 2025, led to a significant decline in HIMS shares, falling by 31.7% in afternoon trading that day [2]. The company's total revenue for the second quarter of 2025 was $545 million, a 7% sequential decline, with revenue from its compounded GLP-1 weight-loss drugs dropping to $190 million [2].
Investors who purchased HIMS shares during the period in question are encouraged to contact the law firms involved to discuss their rights and the possibility of being a lead plaintiff in the class action lawsuit. The lead plaintiff deadline for this class action is August 25, 2025 [1][2][3].
