Before passing to Yemi, I'd like to reiterate a clarification I shared yesterday.

I am deeply saddened that my support for peaceful protest has been interpreted by some as encouraging violence, intimidation, or bigotry of any kind. I do believe deeply in the right for people to use their voices in peaceful protests to drive change. This right is critical to our democracy and must be protected. Our world today is more just because students throughout history have courageously taken to their campuses and used their voices to force change.

Andrew Dudum: Generations of Americans have engaged in nonviolent protests, and these movements have led to some of the most important changes in our country's history. As a father whose children are both the descendants of Palestinian refugees who fled the Nakba in 1948 and the descendants of Holocaust survivors from Poland, as I've previously shared, I have a personal appreciation for the different perspectives people have, which I live with daily at my dinner table. I hope and pray for peace and for an end to violence everywhere. With that said, I will pass it over to Yemi to walk through our financials in greater detail.

Yemi Okupe: Over the course of the first quarter, we saw what we believe to be a meaningful disconnect in our market value relative to our intrinsic value. We believe this was the result of natural shareholder rotation driven primarily by members of our pre-IPO shareholder base, as well as general market volatility. We repurchased approximately 2 million shares in the first quarter as a result of these dynamics. At the end of the first quarter, $20 million remained within our $50 million share repurchase program. As a result of these actions, cash and short-term investments decreased by approximately $17 million in the first quarter.

Amy: Consumer feedback has been resoundingly positive and we expect future investment will enable us to continue expanding the breadth and capacity of personalized offerings across each of our five core specialties are.

Yemi Okupe: Our aspiration is to have tens of millions of subscribers on our platform, and we expect the majority will subscribe to a personalized solution. Additionally, our expertise allows us to make positive ROI investments in our facilities that we expect will increase our ability to offer solutions to consumers at a mass market price. These investments can come in the form of automation, as well as incremental operations in logistically advantageous locations.

Amy: These investments can come in the form of automation as well as incremental operations and logistically advantageous locations.

Yemi Okupe: Our next priority is capitalizing on a moment when we feel there are meaningful disconnects between our market value and intrinsic value, the repurchase of shares. Lastly, we will continue to take the opportunity to utilize our CASLA generation profile to further strengthen our balance sheet. We believe this will provide additional option value for opportunities in the future. We are grateful and confident that the strength of our balance sheet and cash flow generation profile will enable us to do each of these things in the coming years concurrently. With that in mind, I'd like to detail our updated outlook for 2024.

Yemi Okupe: In the second quarter, we are anticipating revenue in the range of $292 to $297 million, representing a year-over-year increase of 40 to 43%. We expect Adjusted EBITDA to be between $30 to $35 million, representing an Adjusted EBITDA margin of 11% at the midpoint of both ranges. For the full year, we are anticipating revenue of between $1.2 to $1.23 billion, representing a year-over-year increase of 38 to 41 percent. Lastly, we expect 2024 adjusted EBITDA to be between $120 and $135 million. These adjusted EBIT and revenue ranges imply an adjusted EBIT margin of 10% at the midpoint of both ranges.

Amy: These adjusted EBIT and revenue ranges imply an adjusted EBIT margin of 10% at the midpoint of both ranges.

Operator: Strong momentum in the first quarter has strengthened our conviction that we will exceed not only our 2025 targets a year early but our revenue targets as well. Our ability to concurrently drive record growth while achieving meaningful levels of marketing leverage reinforces our conviction in reaching our goal of long-term adjusted even margins north of 20% by 2030. Our ability to drive these incredible results would not be possible without the dedication of hundreds of employees across Hims & Hers.

Allen Charles Lutz: Good afternoon, and thanks for taking the question Andrew you mentioned that consumers are seeking out <unk> and the way that you've framed it made it seem like this is really the first time that youre seeing such significant efficiency gains I guess as we think about this in the context of the 2024 guidance did this come to a surprise to you in the quarter.

Allen Charles Lutz: Good afternoon, and thanks for taking the questions. Andrew, you mentioned that consumers are seeking out HIMS, and the way that you framed it made it seem like this is really the first time that you're seeing such significant efficiency gains. I guess as we think about this in the context of the 2024 guidance, did this come as a surprise to you in the quarter? What do you think's driving this? And then why is it happening now?

Andrew: What do you think is driving this and then why is it happening now and I guess as we think about the marketing as a percent of revenue clearly there was a nice step down there just trying to think through what we saw in the first quarter is sustainable.

Allen Charles Lutz: And I guess as we think about marketing as a percent of revenue, clearly, there was a nice step down there. Just trying to think through if what we saw in the first quarter is sustainable. Thanks.

Speaker Change: Thanks, Alan Great question, maybe I'll take the first part and let me hit the second.

Andrew Dudum: Thanks, Allen. Great question. Maybe I'll take the first part and let Yemi handle the second.

Andrew Dudum: You know, I think what's been happening in the past quarter is a continuation of the last couple of quarters, which is as we've expanded the suite and portfolio of personalized products across the categories, both historical core categories and some of the newer ones like weight loss and women's dermatology and others. That's just bringing a much more diverse set of customers to the company, right? We are getting better at segmenting the types of people that live within each of these categories and offering products that are maybe countering concerns they otherwise had and otherwise were barriers for them to adopting treatment.

Alan: I think what's been happening in the past quarter is a continuation of the last couple of quarters, which is as we've expanded the suite and portfolio of personalized products across the category, both historical core categories and some of the newer ones like weight loss and women's dermatology.

Alan: And others.

Alan: Just bringing a much more diverse set of customers to the company. We are getting better at segment hating the types of people that live within each of these categories and offering products that are maybe countering concerns they otherwise had and otherwise where barriers for them adopting treatment.

Andrew Dudum: And so I think as we continue to increase the breadth of choices, you're going to see a continuation of people coming to the platform. And on top of that, which has added extra leverage, we continue to increase the accessibility of those personalized products, right? We're dropping prices strategically. These are very attractive products and attractive prices that are often compared to traditional generic treatments, prices essentially side to side.

Alan: And so I think as we continue to increase the breadth of choices, you're going to see a continuation of people coming to the platform I think on top of that which has added extra leverage we continue to increasing increase the accessibility of those personalized products right.

Alan: <unk> dropping prices strategically these are very mass market attractive products.

Alan: An attractive prices that are often compared to the traditional generic treatments price essentially side.

Andrew Dudum: And so the combination of personalization and the attractive price point is something that's just been growing. From a continuation standpoint, I think generally those trends are to be expected, Alan, because we continue to expand the portfolio. But I think there are also dynamics from a marketing leverage standpoint that Yemi can speak to with regard to when we push a little bit heavier and when we pull back.

Alan: So I decide and so the combination of the personalization and the attractive price point I think is something that has been growing.

Alan: From a continuation standpoint, I think generally those trends are to be expected Alan because we continue to expand the portfolio, but I think there are also dynamics from a marketing leverage standpoint that <unk> can speak to with regard to when we push a little bit heavier than when we pull back.

Yemi Okupe: Yeah, thanks for the question, Allen. I think the way that we think about it is that there will be periods of time where marketing will fluctuate from time to time. We'll use it as a discretionary lever to lean into a variety of different initiatives, whether it's a new category launch or the launch of a new personalized product. But, as we mentioned in the prepared remarks, over the course of, like, on an annual basis, we do see the ability to continue to gain leverage just as a result of more and more consumers coming to the platform, loving the products, staying on the platform for a longer And so that gives us the confidence that each year over the course of the coming years, we have the ability to get leverage and, at the same time, concurrently maintain growth.

Speaker Change: Yes. Thanks for the question Alan I think the way that we think around it is there will be periods of time, where marketing will fluctuate from time to time.

Speaker Change: We'll use it as a discretionary lever to lean into right.

Speaker Change: Variety of different initiatives, whether it's a new category launch our launch of a new personalized product.

But as we mentioned in the prepared remarks over the course of like on an annual basis, we do see the ability to continue to gain leverage as a result of more and more consumers coming to the platform.

Speaker Change: Loving the product being on the platform for a longer period of time as well as Andrew mentioned more consumers coming to us organically and so.

Speaker Change: That give us the confidence that each year over the course of the coming years, we have the ability to get leverage and at the same time and currently maintain growth.

Speaker Change: Very helpful. And then just a quick follow up on the personalized solutions I think you mentioned, 35% of subscribers are now taking personalized solutions today.

Allen Charles Lutz: Very helpful. And then just a quick follow-up on the personalized solutions. I think, Yemi, you mentioned 35% of subscribers are now taking personalized solutions today. How should we think about the size of the retention improvement from maybe where the company was a couple years ago versus what personalized solutions are doing currently? Is there any way to frame the improvement quantitatively? Thanks.

Speaker Change: Should we think about the size of the retention improvement from maybe where the company was.

Speaker Change: A couple of years ago versus what personalized solutions are doing currently is there any way to frame the improvement quantitatively.

Yemi Okupe: Yeah, I think we can give you some guiding principles around what we've been seeing across categories. I think various categories are at different stages in their life cycle.

Speaker Change: Yes, I think we can give you some guiding principles around what we've been seeing across categories. I think various categories are at different stages in their lifecycle.

Andrew Dudum: Broadly, what we do see is that personalized solutions enable us to do a few things. One is just given that there are not similar products, often cases, in the market out there for them. We are seeing more and more consumers sign up for not only personalized products but also sign up for them for longer durations. Given the fact that many of these products do fundamentally go to the heart of consumer preferences and consumer needs, our belief is that these will be the catalysts that enable consumers to stay on the platform for years or even decades.

Speaker Change: Broadly what we do see is that personalization personalize solutions enable us to do a few things.

Speaker Change: One is just given that there are not some similar products often cases in the market out there to them.

Speaker Change: We are seeing more and more consumers sign up for not only the personalized products, but also sign up for them at longer durations and given the fact that many of these products do fundamentally go to the heart of.

Speaker Change: Consumer preferences and consumer needs. Our belief is that these will be the catalyst that enables consumers to stay on the platform for years or even decades.

Speaker Change: We're starting to see that show up across many specialties in the form of much stronger retention that we've seen with the generic alternatives and a doctor if theres anything that you wanted to add there as well, yes. The other thing Alan just maybe to give you some color on.

Andrew Dudum: We're starting to see that show up across many specialties in the form of much stronger retention than we've seen with the generic alternatives. Andrew, I'm not sure if there's anything that you wanted to add there as well. Yeah, the other thing, Alan, just maybe to give you some color on how this plays out.

Speaker Change: How this plays out a lot of customers will cancel overwhelmingly because the treatment itself is not perfectly personalized to that right. Maybe the form factor is not a form factor that they love using right, maybe it's a topical spray and it makes their hair sticky and so they performed they prefer an oral solution.

Andrew Dudum: A lot of customers will cancel overwhelmingly because the treatment itself is not perfectly personalized to them, or maybe the form factor is not a form factor that they love using. Maybe it's a topical spray and it makes their hair sticky, and so they prefer an oral solution, or maybe vice versa. Or, there might be a side effect component, which is common among different treatments, that the customer is trying to balance. I think the way you can think about it is that we like to dive deep into the data to understand why customers are canceling and try our best to address them directly with the next level of personalization launches.

Speaker Change: Or maybe vice versa.

Speaker Change: Or there might be a side effect component, which is common among different treatments that the.

Speaker Change: The customer is trying to balance and so.

Speaker Change: I think the way you can think about it is that we like to dive deep into the data of understanding why customers are canceling and try our best to address them directly with the next level of personalization launches and so very often they are.

Andrew Dudum: Very often, they are directly attacking some of the side effect concerns that we see or some of the form factor concerns we see, et cetera. I probably can't speak to the magnitude, but definitely something that we've seen pretty consistently and would expect.

Speaker Change: Directly attacking some of the side effect concerns that we see or some of the form factor concerns, we see et cetera, and so.

Speaker Change: Probably can't speak to the magnitude, but definitely something that we've seen pretty consistently and we would expect to continue.

Speaker Change: Thank you.

Speaker Change: Your next question comes from Maria <unk> with Canaccord. Please go ahead.

Maria Ripps: Your next question comes from Maria Ripps with Canaccord. Please go ahead.

Andrew Dudum: Great. Thanks so much for taking my questions and congratulations on the strong quarter. First, I just wanted to ask about your pricing philosophy. It's been about a year since you introduced lower prices. Can you maybe give us a little bit more color on your near-term approach to refining pricing from here? Are there any specialties or maybe products where you've seen particularly higher price elasticity?

Maria: Great. Thanks, so much for taking my questions congrats on the strong quarter.

Maria: Firstly, just wanted to ask about your pricing philosophy, it's been about a year since you sort of introduced lower prices can you maybe give us a little bit more call out when you set up near term approach to refining pricing from here and are there any sort of specialties that maybe products, where you've seen particularly higher sort of price elasticity.

Speaker Change: Yes. Thanks for the question Maria I think just our fundamental approach is as we continue to see benefits for from scale.

Yemi Okupe: Yeah, thanks for the question, Maria. I think our fundamental approach is, as we continue to see benefits from scale, we're consistently running experiments with respect to how we pass forward some of the value back to consumers, which we feel will increase longevity on the platform. I think with respect to some of the price dynamics, we would lack many of those in the Q2 quarter. And so we expect to see the benefit from that in the second quarter.

Speaker Change: Quickly running experiments with respect to how do we path forward some of that value back to consumers, which we feel will increase the longevity on the platform I think with respect to some of the pregnant Amex, we would lock many of those in the Q2 and the Q2 quarter and so we expect to see the benefit from that in the second quarter.

Speaker Change: That said I think thats the way that will pass value to consumers is not just in the form of price you can expect additional features or other other creative solutions that we're experimenting in and so I think over the course of the year.

Yemi Okupe: But that said, I think that the way that we'll pass value to consumers is not just in the form of price. You can expect additional features or other creative solutions that we're experimenting with. And so I think over the course of the year, embedded in our guidance is the flexibility to do that, whether it's with respect to pricing or incremental features that consumers get, really with an eye toward addressing their needs and keeping them on the platform for longer.

Speaker Change: Embedded in our guidance with the flexibility to do that whether it's with respect to pricing or incremental features that consumers get really with an eye towards addressing their needs and keeping on the platform for longer.

Andrew Dudum: And I think maybe just to add, Marie, that philosophically, we aim to build a platform where, you know, there are tens of millions of customers across Hims & Hers and believe that the suite of categories and specialties we offer today, as well as the ones we'll continue to expand into, are categories that affect nearly every household in the country. And so continuing to find leverage in operational efficiency or automation or throughout the business and give that back to customers is the core philosophy in order to continue to make those price points accessible in a way that you can truly target those multi-tens of millions of customers.

Speaker Change: Maybe just to add I think philosophically, we aim to build a platform where there are tens of millions of customers across <unk> and horizon and believe that the suite of categories and specialties, we offered today as well as the ones, we will continue to expand into.

Speaker Change: Our categories that affects nearly every household in the country and so continuing to find leverage in the operational efficiency or automation or throughout the business and give that back to customers is the core philosophy in order to continue to make those price points accessible in a way that you can can truly target that multi <unk>.

Speaker Change: Tens of millions of customers.

Speaker Change: Got it that's very helpful. And then can you maybe give us a little bit more color on your targeted investments in our affiliated pharmacies.

Maria Ripps: Got it, that's very helpful. And then can you maybe give us a little bit more color on your targeted investments in affiliated pharmacies? You talked about sort of expanding automation capabilities through robotics and software. So more color on additional capabilities you're able to share.

Speaker Change: <unk> talked about sort of expanding automation capabilities to robotics and software so any more color on additional capabilities, you're able to share and then are you planning to add more affiliated pharmacy locations. At this point and then lastly, how is this going to how are we going to see this sort of flow into your P&L.

Speaker Change: This largely capex or operating expenses.

Speaker Change: Yes. Thanks for the question Maria I think that there's a few areas that we would like to invest and I think that what's becoming overwhelmingly clear that the strategy of personalization is fundamentally work in and so there are a few areas, where we will fundamentally invest.

Yemi Okupe: And then, are you planning to add sort of more affiliated pharmacy locations at this point? And then lastly, how is this going to, how are we going to see this sort of flowing through your P&L? Is this largely CapEx? Or operating expenses?

Yemi Okupe: Yeah, thanks for the question, Maria. I think that there are a few areas that, you know, that we would like to invest in. I think that what's becoming overwhelmingly clear is that the strategy of personalization is fundamentally working. And so there are a few areas where we will fundamentally invest. One is just around the breadth of solutions that we offer across each of our specialties. And so, over the course of the next year, we'll invest to make sure that we can continue to expand the number of different conditions and concerns for consumers that we address in the form of more SKUs.

Speaker Change: One is just around the breadth of solutions that we offer across each of our specialties and so over the course of the next year, we will invest to make sure that we can continue to expand.

Speaker Change: A number of different conditions and concerns for consumers that we address in the form of more skus as part of that.

Yemi Okupe: As part of that, you know, much of the first half of this year and into the early half of next year, we'll also expect to just ensure that there's deeper capacity to fundamentally meet those needs. The capacity and breadth solutions will be growth-dependent.

Much of the kind of the first half of this year and into the early half of next year.

We will also expect to just ensure that theres deeper capacity.

Speaker Change: Fundamentally.

Speaker Change: Those needs the capacity and breadth of our solutions will be corrupt dependent we don't want to get too far ahead of our Skus as we were invested in so we'll continue to watch those.

Yemi Okupe: We don't want to get too far ahead of our skis as we're investing, and so we'll continue to watch those. With respect to where that money will show up, you can expect it to primarily be capital expenditures. And then, you know, starting from the really back half of this year to early next year, our facilities run incredibly efficiently today, but with greater scale, we're uniquely positioned to progressively increase the automation in those facilities.

Speaker Change: With respect to where it will show up you can expect that to primarily be capital expenditures.

Speaker Change: And then starting from like the really the back half of this year to early next year.

Speaker Change: Our facilities run incredibly efficiently today, but with greater scale, we are uniquely positioned to progressively increase the automation in those facilities and so we expect to start that.

Yemi Okupe: And so we expect to, you know, start that process in the back half of the year. That, again, would show up in the form of CapEx, but we do expect many of those initiatives to be ROI positive and incrementally drive higher margins that we have the ability to do so.

Speaker Change: <unk> in the back half of the year that again, which up in the form of Capex, but we do expect many of those initiatives to be ROI positive and incrementally drive higher margins that we have the ability to as Andrew mentioned, that's mentioned mentioned before both off.

Speaker Change: If we pass through to consumers.

Speaker Change: Got it. Thank you so much for the color.

Maria Ripps: Got it. Thank you so much for the call.

Speaker Change: Thank you. Your next question comes from Daniel <unk> with Citi. Please go ahead.

Daniel R. Grosslight: Your next question comes from Daniel Grosslight with Citi. Please go ahead.

Andrew Dudum: Hey guys, thanks for taking the question. I was hoping to get an update on the weight loss program. I'm really curious about the demographics of the folks that are coming to your platform.

Daniel: Hey, guys. Thanks for taking the question I was hoping to get a <unk>.

Daniel: On the weight loss.

Daniel: Program.

So really curious on the demographics of the folks that are coming to your platform.

Daniel R. Grosslight: Have they tried GLP-1s? Are they a little bit wary of trying GLP-1s and would therefore rather kind of go with you first? And then, as we think about GLP-1s and potentially bringing those to your platform, it would be great to get an update on your thinking there, and in particular around compounded GLP-1s and your ability to do that within your facility.

Daniel: They tried <unk> ones are they.

Daniel: A little bit wary of triangle be ones, and therefore would rather kind of go with your first and then as we think about GSE ones and potentially bringing those to your platform that would be great to get an update on your thinking there and and and in particular around that.

Daniel: Compounded DLP ones and your ability to do that within your facilities.

Okay. Thanks, and great question. So I think overwhelmingly really excited by what we've seen on weight loss you are talking about over 100 million people suffering I think the offering we have is excessively priced affordable.

Andrew Dudum: Thanks, Dan. Great question.

Daniel: <unk>.

Speaker Change: And then put it well on target to hit that $100 million in 2000 25 million. We said I think we will continue to expand that portfolio and expect to launch <unk> soon as we've talked about in the past.

Daniel R. Grosslight: So I think I am overwhelmingly really excited by what we've seen with weight loss. You know, you're talking about over 100 million people suffering. I think the offering we have is excessively priced, affordable, safe, and has put it well on target to hit that 100 million in 2025, as we said. I think we will continue to expand that portfolio and expect to launch GLP-1 soon, as we've talked about in the past. Regarding compounding, I think there will probably be more to come in the future, so probably not too much to share on that today. But it is something we're watching really carefully and wrapping our heads around, and the clinical team and the pharmaceutical team are solidifying some perspectives on that that we should be able to share shortly.

Speaker Change: Compounding I think probably more to come in the future.

Speaker Change: So youll, probably not too much to share on that today, but it is something we're watching really carefully and wrapping our heads around in the clinical team and the pharmaceutical team.

Speaker Change: Solidifying some perspectives on that that we should be able to share shortly.

Speaker Change: Got it thank you and Andrew.

Andrew Dudum: Got it. Thank you.

Speaker Change: Andrew You mentioned that you have one of your one of your goals.

Andrew: Getting folks on more than one personalized products.

Andrew: Hoping to get it maybe.

Andrew: Maybe some more details on on how many folks right now are on more than one and maybe any kind of qualitative or quantitative.

Andrew: That you can provide on those folks people, who have more than one versus just one versus no product no personalized products.

Daniel R. Grosslight: And, you know, Andrew, you mentioned that, you know, you have one of your goals is getting folks on more than one personalized product. I was hoping to get maybe some more details on how many folks right now are on more than one, and maybe any kind of qualitative or quantitative benefit you can provide for those folks, people who have more than one versus just one versus no product, no, no personalized product. Yeah, it's a great question.

Speaker Change: It's a great question, I think more and more where we're thinking.

Daniel R. Grosslight: You know, I think more and more we're thinking more about the concept because I think when you think of more than one, it's really this cross sell, right, this e-commerce concept. And I think, as we watch customer behavior, what's becoming clear is personalized versus non personalized is really where we're focusing, because in a lot of situations, personalized often means cross category, right. So when you think about our heart health category and our sexual health category, you know, that's a single personalized treatment that treats both sexual dysfunction as well as cardiovascular disease, right in a single personalized pill.

Speaker Change: You know more about the concept because I think when you think of more than one it's really this cross sell right. This e-commerce concept and I think as.

Speaker Change: As we watch customer behavior, and what's becoming clear is personalized versus non personalized is really where we're focusing because.

Speaker Change: And a lot of situations personalized often means cross category right. So when you think about our heart health category in our sexual health category. That's a single personalized treatment that is treating both sexual dysfunction as well as cardiovascular disease in a single personalized pill and so I think as a business.

Daniel R. Grosslight: And so I think as a business, we're not really focused on, you know, cross-category conversion as much as personalized human-centric treatment of an individual holistically. And I think as you start to see some of our categories overlap, you know, for example, in the weight loss category, there is a lot of overlap with mental health and depressive eating in the mental health category, same thing overlaps with obesity. These categories are not siloed.

Speaker Change: We're not really focused on.

Speaker Change: Cross category conversion as much is personalized human centric treating an individual holistically and I think as you start to see some of our categories overlap.

Speaker Change: For example on the weight loss category.

Speaker Change: A lot of overlap with mental health and depressive eating on the mental health category same thing overlap with obesity.

Speaker Change: These categories are not not siloed and so trying to think of a personalized solution that treats all underlying factors of the symptoms are concerned that a patient is having is really the predominant focus and what we've seen overwhelmingly if you do that really well there are multiple reasons that a patient has to continue treatment.

Daniel R. Grosslight: And so trying to think of a personalized solution that treats all underlying factors of the symptoms or concerns that a patient is having is really the predominant focus. And what we've seen overwhelmingly is that if you do that really well, there are multiple reasons that a patient has to continue treatment. And some of those reasons might be more cosmetic. And some of those reasons might be more clinical and serious. But the combination, you know, surely is increasing the stickiness and the retention and the reasons people kind of remind themselves to pull it out of the cabinet or off the shelf and form that habit.

Speaker Change: And some of those reasons might be more cosmetic and some of those reasons might be more clinical in serious but the combination surely is increasing the stickiness and the retention and the reasons people kind of or remind themselves to pull it out of the cabinet or off the shelf and build that habit.

Speaker Change: Got it thank you.

Speaker Change: Thank you.

Jack Dawson Wallace: Your next question comes from Jack Wallace with Guggenheim Securities. Please go ahead.

Jack Dawson Wallace: Hey, Thanks for taking my questions and congrats on a great start to the year.

Andrew Dudum: Hey, thanks for taking my questions. And congrats on a great start to the year. Andrew, I just wanted to give you an opportunity to, and thank you for addressing your comments from last week. And, and over the weekend, I just wanted to give you an opportunity to give us some idea of how the public response reaction to your comments had any observable impact on the business and thinking more specifically around attention, or excuse me, attrition, and retention, new customer acquisition, as well as employee attention, attrition, and inbound resumes. Thank you.

Jack Dawson Wallace: Andrew I just wanted to give you an opportunity to.

Jack Dawson Wallace: And thank you for addressing your comments from from last week.

Jack Dawson Wallace: And over the weekend just wanted to give you an opportunity to just.

Speaker Change: And inbound resumes thank you.

Speaker Change: Thanks, Jack Yeah, Great question.

Jack Dawson Wallace: Thanks, Jack. Yeah, great question. You know, so no material impact that we expect in the business. The guidance that we shared today reflects all of the latest thinking. And so, you know, we don't expect that to be a big concern at all going forward.

Jack Dawson Wallace: So no material impact that we expect in our business the guidance that we shared today reflects all of the latest thinking and so.

Jack Dawson Wallace: So we don't expect that to be a big concern at all going forward.

Speaker Change: Great. Thank you and then.

Yemi Okupe: Great, thank you. And then, you know, just wanted to get a little more color on the CAPEX investments, Yemi. Should we think of the first quarter's CAPEX number being a fair, kind of jumping off point into the second half of the year? And I appreciate your response to the prior question. And then, in terms of the therapeutic categories, sounds like maybe weight loss is getting some additional attention with the expanded capabilities there. But are there any other categories existing that might be getting some extra attention as well as preparation for new categories? Thank you.

Speaker Change: I just wanted to get a little more color on the Capex.

Speaker Change: Investments.

Speaker Change: Should we think of the first quarter's capex number being a.

Speaker Change: Fair.

Speaker Change: Kind of jumping off point into the second half of the year and I. Appreciate your response to the prior question and then second in terms of the therapeutic category. It sounds like maybe weight loss is getting some additional attention.

Speaker Change: With the.

Speaker Change: Expanded capabilities, there, but any other categories existing that might be getting some extra attention as well as preparation for new categories. Thank you.

Jack Dawson Wallace: Yeah, I can start with the first part of the question. Maybe we'll throw it over to Andrew for the second half.

Speaker Change: Yes, I can start with the first part of the question, maybe I'll turn it over to Andrew for the second half.

Yemi Okupe: I think what we really see, you know, Jack, as mentioned kind of in the prior question, we'll look to calibrate the capital expenditures relative to the growth that we are seeing. I think historically, you know, if you rewind two years ago, capital expenditures were fairly minimal in the low $1 to $2 million range. Over the course of the next three years, we expect just more intensity in the CapEx.

Andrew: I think what we really see Jack as I'd mentioned kind of in the prior question.

Andrew: We'll look to calibrate the capital expenditures relative to the growth that we are seeing I think historically, if you rewind two years ago capital expenditures were fairly minimal in the low $1 million to $2 million range over the course over the next three years, if we do expect.

Andrew: More intensity in the Capex, we don't expect to return to those levels for the next three years, but it will fluctuate.

Yemi Okupe: We don't expect to return to those levels for the next three years, but it will fluctuate as we start to invest in machinery or expand capabilities in the facilities. So it's hard to give an exact quarter-to-quarter number, but we do expect it to be, you know, elevated, similar to what we've seen kind of in the latter part of last year to last quarter.

Andrew: As we start to invest in machinery or expanding capabilities in the facilities.

Andrew: So it's hard to give an exact quarter to quarter number, but we do expect it to be elevated.

Andrew: Similar to what we've seen kind of Mb.

Andrew: The latter part of last year or two.

Last quarter.

Andrew Dudum: And I think a lot of these capabilities are centered around pharmaceutical complexity, so you can imagine form factor variation. We've got a number of form factors across the breadth of specialties and portfolio today, but there are quite a few more that we can be bringing to market. There's complexity in specific ingredient compounding, so there are actually necessary processes for more complex ingredients that are more challenging to put together into these form factors.

Andrew: And I think a lot of these capabilities are centered.

Andrew: Around both pharmaceutical complexity. So you can imagine form factor variation, we've got a number of form factors on the on the breadth of specialties.

Andrew: Portfolio today, but theres quite a few more that we can be bringing to market. There is complexity in specific ingredient compounding so theres actually necessary processes for more complex ingredients.

Andrew: Are more challenging to put together into these form factors and then obviously there are categories that we are excited by that we've talked about in the past.

Andrew Dudum: And then, obviously, there are categories that we are excited about that we've talked about in the past: hormonal balance, menopause, testosterone, pain management, insomnia, right? These are categories we've always talked about and believe in, believe there are a lot of people struggling with and an opportunity to deliver hyper-personalized treatments at very affordable prices. And so a lot of that CapEx investment is not only going towards some of the near-term categories but is building the foundation for what's going to be necessary a couple of years from now.

Jack Dawson Wallace: Great! Thank you so much.

Andrew: Hormonal balance menopause testosterone pain management insomnia right. These are categories, we've always talked about and believe and believe there is a lot of people struggling and an opportunity to deliver hyper personalized treatments at very affordable prices and so a lot of that Capex investment is not only going towards some of the near term categories and building the foundation.

Andrew: For what's going to be necessary a couple of years from now.

Speaker Change: Great. Thank you so much.

Speaker Change: Thank you.

Speaker Change: Your next question comes from John Kim with TD Cowen. Please go ahead.

Jungwon Kim: Your next question comes from Jonna Kim with TD Cowan. Please go ahead.

Jungwon Kim: Thanks for taking my question just wanted to get a better understanding of sort of what changed in terms of the full year, but full year guidance.

Yemi Okupe: Thanks for taking my question. I just wanted to get a better understanding of sort of what changed in terms of the full year bit, full year guidance in the first quarter versus how you got it in the fourth quarter. And I'm just curious which areas deliver upside versus your original expectations and also what changed in terms of your second half expectations. Any color will be helpful there. And just another question is, have you seen any change in consumer behavior by different income cohorts across your categories? Thank you so much.

Jungwon Kim: The first quarter versus how you've got it in the fourth quarter, and just curious which areas deliver upside versus your original expectations and also what change in terms of your second half expectations any color will be helpful. There and just another question is have you seen any change in consumer behavior by this.

Jungwon Kim: Income cohorts across your categories. Thank you so much.

Jungwon Kim: Okay.

Andrew Dudum: Maybe I can start with the first part of the question, you know, on the guide, and then, you know, can turn it over to Andrew for broader clarification around what we're seeing with the consumer. I think really, you know, Jonah, like what we did see in the first quarter is just record-level momentum, both in terms of the magnitude of consumers that were coming onto the platform relative to what we were expecting, as well as the frequency with which they were opting for personalized products. As we mentioned, those typically do carry higher retention levels.

Speaker Change: Maybe I can start with the first part of the question.

Speaker Change: And then.

Speaker Change: We can turn it over to Andrew for broader clarity around what we're seeing with the consumer.

Andrew: Jonathan what we did see in the first quarter is just record level of momentum.

Both in terms of the magnitude of consumers that are coming onto the platform relative to what we were expecting as well as the frequency of which they are opting for our personalized products.

As we mentioned, there's typically do carry higher higher retention levels and so.

Yemi Okupe: And so really, what's embedded in our guidance is just the strong momentum that we've seen. And we're seeing that across, you know, pretty much all of our specialties, given the fact that we've innovated the suite of products, whether it's sexual health, you know, dermatology, or the new weight loss weight category, we're seeing continued strength across each of our specialties. And we expect to continue to innovate with a very attractive pipeline for each of those specialties.

Andrew: Really whats embedded in our guidance is just the strong momentum that we've seen and we're seeing that across.

Andrew: Pretty much all of our specialties.

Andrew: Given the fact that we've innovated.

Andrew: The suite of products, whether it's sexual health.

Andrew: Dermatology or the new kit.

Andrew: Category.

Andrew: Seeing continued strength across each of our specialties and we expect to continue to.

Andrew: Innovate with a very attractive pipeline on each of our specialty is and so really that's what's embedded in the guide is a very strong pipeline of things to come.

Yemi Okupe: And so really, that's what's embedded in the guide is a very strong pipeline of things to come. The strong uptick in consumer acquisition in the first quarter, and then just the adoption of personalized products.

Andrew: The strong uptick in consumer acquisition in the first quarter and then just the adoption of personalized products.

Andrew Dudum: Yeah, regarding consumer confidence, you know, I think we continue to see strength across the demographics of income levels, you know, probably because of a couple of things. And this has happened historically when consumer confidence has dropped and others have struggled in traditional consumer channels, and our business has remained resilient. You know, I think you're talking about categories and products that are incredibly emotionally responsive and core to the wellbeing of the consumer, right?

Andrew: Yeah, and then regarding consumer confidence I think we continue to see strength across the demographics income levels I think probably.

Andrew: Because of a couple of things and this has happened historically when consumer confidence has dropped and others have struggled and traditional consumer channels and our business has remained resilient I think youre talking about categories and products that are incredibly emotionally residents and core to the well being of the consumer right there products that when the customer wakes up in the morning.

Andrew Dudum: They're products that when the customer wakes up in the morning and looks in the mirror, are highly impactful on how that day goes and how they show up in the world. And so I think they are very, very sticky in that way. On top of that, I think the strategic pricing initiatives from the last year have continued to make those even further affordable such that we have not seen any type of concerns about consumer strength whatsoever.

Andrew: It looks in the mirror, our highly impactful to how that day goes and how they show up in the world and so I think very very sticky and that way on top of that I think the strategic pricing initiatives from the last year have continued to make those even further affordable such.

Andrew: Such that we have not seen any types of concerns and consumer stress.

Strength whatsoever.

Speaker Change: Got it thank you so much.

Speaker Change: Your next question comes from Aaron Kessler with Seaport Global Please go ahead.

Jungwon Kim: Okay, thank you so much. Your next question comes from Aaron Kessler with Seaport Global. Please go ahead. Great, thanks.

Aaron Kessler: Your next question comes from Aaron Kessler with Seaport Global. Please go ahead. Great. Thanks, guys. Congratulations on the quarter. A couple of questions.

Aaron Kessler: Great. Thanks, guys. Congrats on the quarter a couple of questions. One maybe you can update us on the womens kind of performance of the <unk> performance in the quarter. I think you noted pretty strong growth last quarter and then just on the mental health side, maybe an update there. Thank our recent survey were showing pretty high rates of depression is particularly among younger adults just curious kind of what youre seeing there as well.

Yes.

Speaker Change: Thanks, Erin and great to have you on.

Andrew Dudum: Thanks, Erin, and great to have you. On the Her side of the business, continuing to see it be one of the fastest growing parts of the business. And this is comprised of Her's dermatology, Her's hair, the Her's weight loss category, as well as the mental health business. All of those are growing very robustly, and I think are really pulling the company ahead in a dramatic way.

Speaker Change: On the her side of the business continuing to see it be one of the fastest growing if not the fastest growing parts of the business and this is comprised of hers dermatology or his hair her weight loss category as well as the mental health business all of those are growing.

Speaker Change: Robustly and I think really pulling the company ahead in a dramatic way when we look at some of the penetration rates that the business has in those categories. It's quite small youre talking 1% to 2% penetration rates in very very massive market and so we suspect that the brand.

Andrew Dudum: When we look at some of the penetration rates that the business has in those categories, it's, it's quite small; you're talking about one 2% penetration rates in very, very massive markets. And so we suspect that the brand and the investments in the brand that we've been making in the last year or two are really just starting to unlock the awareness levels necessary to start taking massive share. But we believe strongly that from what we can tell, we've got strong product market fit in those three or four categories.

Speaker Change: The investments in the brand that we've been making in the last year or two are really just starting to unlock the awareness levels necessary to start taking massive share, but we believe strongly that from what we can tell we've got strong product market fit in those three or four categories. The breadth of portfolio of offerings is expanding very rapidly.

Speaker Change: Many products in the last quarter in many to come in the next couple in a way that gives us confidence that that growth rate will be able to be sustained for quite some time.

Andrew Dudum: The breadth of the portfolio of offerings is expanding very rapidly. Many products in the last quarter and many to come in the next couple in a way that gives us constant confidence that that growth rate will be able to be sustained for quite some time.

Speaker Change: Great. Thank you.

Speaker Change: Thank you.

Speaker Change: Your next question comes from Glen Santangelo with Jefferies. Please go ahead.

Glen Joseph Santangelo: Your next question comes from Glen Santangelo with Jeffreys. Please go ahead.

Yemi Okupe: So, yeah, thanks for taking my question. Hey guys, I just wanted to sort of unpack some of the numbers here, maybe a couple financial questions if I could. I mean, the subscriber growth of 41% in the quarter was almost equivalent to the sort of revenue growth you drove. But when I sort of peel back the layers a little bit, it looks like the monthly sales per average subscriber were flat, but yet your average order value was up 21%, which maybe suggests that you're continuing to have some success booking multi-month subscriptions.

Glen Joseph Santangelo: Hey, Thanks for taking my question, Hey, guys I, just sort of unpack some of the numbers here, maybe a couple of financial questions. If I could I mean the.

Glen Joseph Santangelo: Subscriber growth of 41% in the quarter was <unk>.

Glen Joseph Santangelo: Equivalent with the sort of the revenue growth.

Glen Joseph Santangelo: Zero, but what are you sort of peel back the layers a little bit it looks like the the monthly sales per average subscriber were flat, but yet your average order value was up 21% which may be.

Glen Joseph Santangelo: Just that youre continuing to have some success booking multi month subscriptions I was wondering if you could just give us a little bit more.

Yemi Okupe: I was wondering if you could just give us a little bit more, you know, a little bit more meat on both those two numbers, because I think what some of us are trying to assess as well is we get the churn question a lot, and so I'm just trying to make sure I understand how all these metrics sort of play off of one another.

A little bit more meat.

Glen Joseph Santangelo: On both those two numbers because I think what some of US who are trying to assess as well.

Glen Joseph Santangelo: As we get the churn question a lot and so im just trying to make sure I understand how all these all these metrics sort of play.

Glen Joseph Santangelo: Play off one another.

Speaker Change: Yeah sure. Thanks for the question Glenn.

Glen Joseph Santangelo: Yeah, sure. Thanks for the question, Glen.

Speaker Change: We've stated in the past would be the primary growth lever that we're focused on as a company is around subscriber growth and so a lot of the strategic initiatives, whether it's around personalization or some of the pricing elements, we've talked historically in the past.

Yemi Okupe: I think we've stated in the past that the primary growth lever that we're focused on as a company is around subscriber growth. And so a lot of the strategic initiatives, whether it's around personalization or some of the pricing elements we've talked about historically in the past, those are geared towards both making it attractive to consumers to come to the platform, as well as keeping consumers on the platform for multiple years, if not even decades.

Speaker Change: Those are geared towards both making it attractive to the consumers to come to the platform as well as keeping consumers on the platform for.

Yemi Okupe: And so our performance this quarter was primarily driven by subscriber growth, as you mentioned. We expect that to continue to be the case. And then with respect to the monthly average revenue per subscriber slash AOV, really, our focus is, as you mentioned, continuing to make sure that the Multi-month bundles are attractive, and we can see continued success there. With respect to some of the movement that you see in AOV, it is driven primarily by that, as well as some of the product mix dynamics as well as the wait for it coming online.

Speaker Change: Multiple years, if not even decades and so largely our performance. This quarter was primarily driven off of the subscriber growth. As you mentioned, we expect that to continue to be the case and then with respect to the monthly average revenue per subscriber loss.

Speaker Change: Really our focus is as you mentioned and continuing to make sure that the most.

Speaker Change: <unk> bundles are attractive and we see continued success there.

Speaker Change: With respect to some of the movement that you see at <unk> and is driven primarily by that as well as some of the.

Speaker Change: The product mix mix dynamics as well with the way we're coming on line.

Glen Joseph Santangelo: And Yemi, maybe just one more quick question on the guidance. If I sort of look at the adjusted EBITDA margin you put up in 1Q and what you're sort of implying for 2Q, it seems to suggest a reasonable step down in the back half of the year, you know, to be consistent with your sort of full year guidance. And I was wondering, is that some level of conservatism you're building in, or are there some, you know, you've talked on this call about some planned investments that may ultimately be made. So I'm just trying to make some sense of why we should expect the margin in the back half of the year to go down. Yep, I think it's a great class.

And maybe just one more quick question on the guidance, if I sort of look at the.

Speaker Change: The adjusted EBITDA margin, you put up in <unk>, and what you're sort of implying for <unk>.

Speaker Change: It seems to suggest a reasonable step down in the back half of the year.

Speaker Change: Being consistent with your sort of full year guidance I was wondering is that some level of conservatism you're building in or are there some.

Speaker Change: You've talked on this call about some planned investments that may ultimately be made so I'm just trying to make some sense of why we should expect the margin in the back half of the year to go down.

Speaker Change: Yes, I think that's a great question I think Q1 was definitely.

Yemi Okupe: I think that's a great question. I think Q1 was definitely a phenomenal quarter for us, and we are very excited about the remainder of the year ahead. Really, what we are doing is we're leaving ourselves flexibility. As we've mentioned, we do continue to look for ways to pass value back to consumers, whether that's the case of leaning back into marketing as we start to have new categories come online or new products come online.

Speaker Change: A phenomenal quarter for us and we are very excited by the remainder of the year to come.

Speaker Change: Really what we are doing is we are leaving ourselves enough flexibility as we've mentioned we.

Speaker Change: Due to continuously look for ways to pass value back to consumers.

Speaker Change: Whether thats the case of leaning back into marketing as we start to have new new categories come online.

Speaker Change: Starting to products come online.

Speaker Change: We will look to opportunistically have the flexibility to invest there and then as we mentioned before or over the course of several quarters. We do run experiments identifying what are the most accretive ways to pass value back to consumers, we're very close to finalizing some of those experiments and excited by those and so do you want to leave ourselves flexibility in the guide.

Yemi Okupe: We will look to opportunistically have the flexibility to invest there. And then, as we mentioned before, over the course of several quarters, we do run experiments identifying what are the most accretive ways to pass value back to consumers. We're very close to finalizing some of those experiments and excited by those. And so, we do want to leave ourselves the flexibility in the guide to have the capability to roll out some of those.

Speaker Change: Two.

Speaker Change: Have the capability to ultimate us.

Okay. Thank you.

Speaker Change: Your next question comes from Jay Linda Zhang with <unk> Securities. Please go ahead.

Jailendra P. Singh: Your next question comes from Jailendra Singh with Truist Securities. Please go ahead.

Jailendra P. Singh: Thank you and thanks for taking my questions and congrats on a strong quarter. First couple of clarification questions on the subscribers using personalized solutions 1Q at 35%. What was this figure among the new members you added in 1Q in terms of using a personalized solution? And second, part of the question is like, what is your outlook in terms of this figure by end of the year?

Speaker Change: Thank you and thanks for taking my questions and congrats on a strong quarter.

Speaker Change: First a couple of quick clarification questions on the.

Speaker Change: Subscribers using virtualized solution <unk> at 35% what was the figure out among the new members added in <unk> in terms of using a personalized solution and second part of the question is like what is your outlook, reflecting in terms of this figure at the end of the year.

Speaker Change: Yes, I think maybe I can start with some of the more granular details.

Yemi Okupe: Yeah, I think that maybe I can start, you know, with some of the more granular details and then, you know, can hand it over to Andrew to add some of the broader strategic questions. We didn't explicitly guide to, you know, basically a new number specifically.

Speaker Change: Got it over to Andrew to add some of the broader strategic question, we didn't explicitly guide to basically a.

Andrew: New numbers, specifically, what we do see is if the adoption for new subscribers of personalized products tends to be higher just because I think many of those users for the first time when they come to the platform are identifying the attractiveness of our personalized solutions is also we do see is that in many of the newer categories the adoption rate.

Andrew Dudum: What we do see is that the adoption rate for new subscribers of personalized products tends to be higher, just because I think many of those users, you know, for the first time when they come to the platform, are identifying the attractiveness of personalized solutions. It's also what we do see that in many of the newer categories, the adoption rate is quite strong, just because the vast majority of the user base is disproportionately oriented towards new users.

Andrew: It was quite strong.

Andrew: The vast majority of the user base is disproportionately oriented towards towards new users.

Andrew Dudum: And so we do expect, you know, that number to basically creep up, you know, each quarter, and alongside it, we're excited by the potential that that means for retention. And then Andrew, not for business.

Andrew: And so we do expect that number to basically creep up.

Each quarter on alongside it we're excited by the potential that that means for for retention and then Andrew I'm not sure, but just wanted to maybe just at a high level I think we expect the.

Yemi Okupe: Yeah, Andrew, maybe just, I mean, at a high level, I think we expect the vast majority of business in the coming years to be on and being treated with a personalized offering. It's, you know, the underlying relationship these customers have with the platform, the stickiness, the degree of choice and customization that they're provided, the flexibility tools that they have are just meaningfully more powerful than a traditional generic treatment. So we expect the vast majority of businesses in the coming years to move toward those types of treatments.

Andrew: The vast majority of the business in the coming years to be on edge being treated with a personalized offering.

Speaker Change: The underlying.

Speaker Change: Relationship these customers have with the platform the stickiness the degree of choice and customization that they are provided the flexibility tools that they have or are just meaningfully more powerful than a traditional generic treatment. So we expect the vast majority of business in the coming years too.

Speaker Change: Move towards those types of treatments.

Jailendra P. Singh: Okay. And then my quick follow-up, just trying to better understand your comment around pricing adjustments and flexibility in 24. Has there been any change in your thought process given what you've learned about consumer behavior and the competitive environment so far this year, in terms of getting more or less aggressive with those changes this year, and what kind of data points will you be watching or focused on which will drive your decision to make these adjustments? Yeah, I think we can go.

Speaker Change: And then my quick follow up just kind of trying to better understand your comment around pricing adjustments flexibility in 2004.

Speaker Change: Has there been any change your thought process, given what you've learned about the consumer behavior competitive environment. So far in the year in terms of getting more or less aggressive with those changes in the year and what kind of data points will you be watching or focused on which would drive your decision to make these adjustments.

Speaker Change: Yes, if we can go a bit into just like what is the philosophical approach behind some of the changes that we make and so I think that.

Yemi Okupe: Yeah, I think we can go a bit into just like, what is the philosophical approach behind some of the changes that we make. And so I think that, you know, as a management team and as a company, we're less focused on what's happening, you know, quarter to quarter. As Andrew mentioned, we've seen the consumer remain very resilient, just given the types of conditions that we're oftentimes serving. They tend to be more resilient in nature.

Speaker Change: As a management team that as a company I think we're less focused on whats happening in a quarter to quarter as Andrew mentioned, we've seen the consumer remains very resilient just given the types of conditions are oftentimes surveyed.

Speaker Change: Tend to be more resilient in nature, and so really when we think around whether it's pricing or other mechanisms that we used to pass value back to consumers what will drive the decision to do that it will be primarily just around the data that we receive and experiments and identifying which categories, which areas and which types of vehicles.

Yemi Okupe: And so really, you know, when we think about whether it's pricing or other mechanisms that we use to pass value back to consumers, what will drive the decision to do those will be primarily just around the data that we receive in experiments in identifying which categories, which areas, and which types of vehicles result in the highest ROI. And so that will be more of the governing factor versus any given concern or opportunity in a quarter.

Speaker Change: Results in the highest ROI and so that will be more of the governing factor versus.

Speaker Change: Can you give any concern or opportunity in the quarter.

Speaker Change: Great. Thanks, a lot.

Your next question comes from Karen <unk> with Piper Sandler. Please go ahead.

Korinne N. Wolfmeyer: Your next question comes from Korinne Wolfmeyer with Piper Sandler. Please go ahead.

Karen: Hey, good afternoon, guys congrats on the quarter and thanks for the question.

Yemi Okupe: Hey, good afternoon, guys. Congratulations on the quorum. Thanks for the question. To touch on the churn question kind of in a different way, I think what we're all struggling with is that it hasn't been quantified very clearly, like what's changing with retention in churn levels. So I guess, is there any way you can give us better color on like how many of your multi-month subscribers are ending up doing reorders after their first initial order and how many are falling off, and then any other detail you can give us there? Thank you.

Karen: Touch on the churn question kind of in a different way I mean, I think what we're all struggling.

Karen: Haven't been quantified very clearly.

Karen: What's changing with retention and churn levels.

Karen: I guess is there any way you can give us better color on like how many of your multi month subscribers are doing reorders. After their first initial order and how many are falling off and then any other detail you can give us there. Thank you.

Karen: Yes.

Korinne N. Wolfmeyer: Yeah, I think we can. What I'd point to, Korinne, is that I think it's a great question. I think there are a few data points. One is just like the previous guidance that we've given around long-term retention levels north of 85%. I think those hold true. And if anything, I think the hope for us would be that that gets stronger. We did see across Q1, it really is just a record level of additions of net new subscribers.

Speaker Change: What I'd point to occur and I think it's a great question I think our for you a few data points. One is just like the.

Speaker Change: Previous guidance that we've given around long term retention levels north of 85% I think it's a dose hold true.

Speaker Change: I think the hope for us would be the cutback that gets stronger we did see across Q1 really is just a record level of additions of net new subscribers and that's a function of <unk>.

Korinne N. Wolfmeyer: And that's a function of both efficiency on acquisition but also just some of the benefits and longevity. As we continue to pass value back to consumers in the form of pricing experiments or other value added to consumers, we do expect retention to improve in the coming quarters, but it's very difficult to give exact quantification numbers around that.

Speaker Change: Efficiency on acquisition, but also just some of the benefits and longevity as we continue to pass value back to consumers in the form.

Speaker Change: Experiments or.

Other value adds to the consumers, we did expect retention to improve and improve in the coming quarters, but it's very difficult to give.

Speaker Change: Exactly no quantification numbers around that.

Speaker Change: Got it. Thank you really appreciate it and then I think you guys have kind of hinted towards some new product launches and I think Andrew you said potentially it <unk> down.

Yemi Okupe: Got it. Thank you. I really appreciate it.

Speaker Change: When you laid out the guidance how much of the improvement in the guidance is coming from new product launches and is anything getting pulled forward sooner than anticipated and then any detail you can give us.

Korinne N. Wolfmeyer: And then I think you guys kind of hinted at the new product launches. And I think, Andrew, you said, you know, potentially GLP-1 soon. When you laid out the guidance, how much of the improvement in the guidance is coming from new product launches, and is anything getting pulled forward sooner than anticipated? And then any detail you can give us on the timing of GLP-1s, and is that a this year thing or maybe a next year thing? Any color there would be great. Thank you.

On timing of <unk> and is that a this year thing or maybe a next year thing any color there would be great. Thank you.

Speaker Change: Yes on the <unk> side definitely this year, so I would expect them expect them as soon as we've talked about.

Andrew Dudum: Yeah, on the GOP side, definitely this year. So I would expect them to expect them soon, as we've talked about. Yeah, and then with respect to the question around, you know, guidance.

Speaker Change: With regard to the other side of it.

Speaker Change: Let me tackle and then with respect to the question around guidance correct I think that really.

Yemi Okupe: Yeah, and then with respect to the question around, you know, guidance, Korinne, I think that really that's, you know, less of a function of a specific categorical launch or product launch and really it's more of a function of as we expect continued strong demand from consumers that is similar to what we saw in the first quarter. And we do expect, you know, a continued uptick in personalized products. We're very excited about the portfolio to come, but historically, with our guidance philosophy, we generally roll forward what we have certainty and visibility into. And so, reflected in the guide is what we can see based upon today and some of the inputs that we have around the products that have already launched or are imminently coming.

Speaker Change: Less of a function of a specific categorical launch or product launch it as it relates to what it's more of a function of as we expect continued strong demand from consumers.

Speaker Change: Similar to what we saw in the first quarter.

And we do expect a continued uptick in personalized products, we're very excited about the portfolio to come here.

Speaker Change: Historically with our guidance philosophy.

Speaker Change: We generally roll forward, what we have certainty and visibility into.

Speaker Change: And so reflected in the guidance is what we can see based upon today and some of the effects that we have around the products that are already launched or are imminently coming.

Speaker Change: Great. Thank you.

Speaker Change: Your next question comes from George Hill with Deutsche Bank. Please go ahead.

George Robert Hill: Your next question comes from George Hill with Deutsche Bank. Please go ahead.

George Robert Hill: Good afternoon, guys and thanks for taking the questions I have a kind of one big picture, one and one small picture one Andrew and Yummy I guess the small picture. One is do you guys have an opinion kind of at what price point.

Andrew Dudum: Good afternoon, guys, and thanks for taking the questions. I have kind of one big picture one and one small picture one, Andrew and Yemi.

Yemi Okupe: I guess the small picture one is, do you guys have an opinion kind of at what price point GLP-1s are most attractive for you from a subscription and volume perspective? And I ask that as somebody, you know, from the drug supply chain side. We see pretty significant price competition in that space and discounting in that space. So, prices are coming down pretty significantly. And then my follow-up question to that is, Yemi, in response to your comments when you talked about wanting to grow a business that had tens of millions of subscribers. Which disease states and product categories do you think are most important for getting to that goal?

George Robert Hill: Q1's, inflect for you from a subscription and volume perspective, and I ask that is if somebody from the drug supply chain side, we see pretty significant price competition in that space and discounting in that space. So prices are coming down pretty significantly and then my back my follow up question to that is any of your comments when you talked about wanting to grow a business that has tens of millions of subscribers.

George Robert Hill: Scrubbers.

George Robert Hill: Which disease states in product categories. Do you think are most important for getting to that goal. Thank you.

Speaker Change: Thanks, George on the GOP, one side I'm not sure we probably have a perspective to share on that at this point, but agree a very interesting question and definitely.

George Robert Hill: Thanks, George. On the GLP-1 side, I'm not sure we probably have a perspective to share on that at this point, but I agree, a very interesting question and definitely dynamic, right? Changing pretty rapidly time. So I think we'll be able to share more on that shortly. Yemi, I'll let you take the second half. Yeah, I'm

Speaker Change: Dynamic bright changing pretty pretty near near time.

Speaker Change: So I think we'll be able to share more on that shortly.

Speaker Change: Let me I'll, let you take the second half and then with respect to the categories I think George I think the benefit of our platform is that it's both comprehensive but at the same time.

Andrew Dudum: Yeah, I mean, with respect to the categories, I think, you know, George, I think the benefit of our platform is that it's both comprehensive, but at the same time, we were very focused on the five core specialties that we operate in. Within each of those specialties, there are tens of millions, if not hundreds of millions, of subscribers for us to go after. And so I think that we are confident in each of those specialties.

Speaker Change: We are very focused on.

Speaker Change: <unk> four specialties that we operate in and within each of those specialty theres tens of millions if not hundreds of millions of subscribers for us to go to go after.

Andrew Dudum: You know, they have the ability, as we mentioned in the past, to be at least $100 million or more in revenue by next year. Even that said, I think across many of these, we're just scratching the surface through continued innovation on the personalization side, as well as continuing to broaden the product suite at different price points. We do feel very confident in our ability to have each of these be multi-hundred million dollars. Okay.

Speaker Change: And so I think that we are confident in each of our specialties. They have the ability as we mentioned in the past to be.

Speaker Change: At least $100 million.

Speaker Change: Dollars dollars or more of revenue by next year.

Speaker Change: Even that said I think across many many of these were just scratching the surface through continued.

Speaker Change: Innovation on the personalization side as well as <unk>.

Continuing to broaden our product suite at different price points, we do feel very confident in our ability to have each of these be multi multibillion dollar businesses.

George Robert Hill: Okay, I don't know if there's time for a quick follow-up, but I would ask one more about GLP-1s where brand seems to be very important in that category, and name brand is very important in that category, where name brand is kind of less important, like your name brand, Hims & Hers, is important in your kind of product sets. Is that something that you view as kind of different or like something that you can conquer? I don't know if you can talk about how you address the marketing aspect of that category and how it's different from what you guys have done historically. Yeah, probably can't get too much there.

Speaker Change: Okay.

Speaker Change: There's time for a quick follow up but I would ask one more about <unk>, where brand seems to be very important in that category and name brand is very important that category were named brand is kind of lessen your name brand him his and hers is important.

Speaker Change: In your in your kind of product sets is that something that you view as kind of different or like something you can conquer or I don't know if you can talk about how you would address the marketing aspect of that category and how it's different from what you guys have done historically.

Speaker Change: Yes, probably.

Andrew Dudum: But I do think that, you know, when you're talking about GLP-1s, and specific even to Dan's question earlier around compounded GLP-1s, the safety profile and the clinical excellence around those are critical, and I think there's a wide range of offerings in the market with a wide range, probably, of clinical best practices. And I think when we bring things to market, as we've kind of said in the past, we don't necessarily believe we ever need to or should be the first to market, but we should be the best in the market.

Speaker Change: Too much there, but I do think that.

Speaker Change: When you are talking about <unk> and specific even to Dan's question earlier around compounded <unk>.

Speaker Change: Safety profile and the clinical excellence around those.

Speaker Change: I think it is critical and I think there is a wide range of offerings in market with a wide range probably of clinical best practices.

Speaker Change: And I think when we bring things to market as we've kind of said in the past, we don't necessarily believe we ever need to or should be the first to market, but we should be the best in market.

Speaker Change: That's the way we approach this category and this launch of being able to ensure customers that the offering and the products are.

Andrew Dudum: And I think that's the way we'd approach this category and its launch, being able to ensure customers that the offering and the products are of the highest quality, undergo the highest testing, and have a degree of safety and clinical excellence that is really unmatched, and they know that.

Speaker Change: The highest quality the highest testing.

Speaker Change: I have a degree of safety and clinical excellence that is really unmatched remainder of that.

Speaker Change: Great. Thank you.
