HIMS and LFMD are surging in the telehealth race, but which one has stronger earnings growth and expansion momentum? Let's see.
LifeMD is a fast-growing, profitable telehealth company with strong partnerships, a robust tech stack and a valuable SaaS asset. The Novo Nordisk/Hims fallout is bullish, not bearish, for LifeMD. Novo Nordisk and Eli Lilly are unlikely to break a partnership with LifeMD. Q1 2025 results showed an excellent inflection into profitability, but guidance was conservative and gross margins declined due to product mix.

Telehealth firms Teladoc Health and LifeMD said on Thursday they have signed an agreement with Eli Lilly's direct-to-consumer website LillyDirect pharmacy partner, Gifthealth, to offer patients the weight-loss drug, Zepbound.
Mizuho initiated coverage of LifeMD with a Neutral rating and $7 price target. The firm notes that the company has succeeded due to the successful uptake of its virtual 'GLP-1 Weight Management' program, which features access to both branded and compounded GLP-1 drugs for obesity patients, with 80% of the total in compounded. However, investors are grappling with the durability risk of LifeMD's subscription revenue related to GLP-1 compounding, as if the drugs are taken off the FDA drug shortage list, compounding would no longer be allowed.

LifeMD, Inc. (LFMD) came out with a quarterly loss of $0.14 per share versus the Zacks Consensus Estimate of a loss of $0.10. This compares to loss of $0.20 per share a year ago.
LFMD expands its men's health services with TestoRx, offering convenient testosterone therapy and alternative treatments for low testosterone via telehealth.
LifeMD's Q2 2024 earnings were mixed, with management failing to monetize the non-core WorkSimpli asset, leading me to assign it no value. Despite management's over-promising, LifeMD's telehealth and GLP1 offerings show significant potential, with the stock priced at 14x forward EBITDA. I have revised my price target from $20 to $15 per share by summer 2025, due to management's credibility issues and uncertainties in GLP1 prospects.
