Hims & Hers CEO walks back supporting campus protests after company stocks tank

The CEO of Hims & Hers, a telehealth pharmaceutical company, has issued a new statement on the campus protests happening across the country, after its initial support for them caused the company’s stocks to plummet.

Andrew Dudum had initially encouraged protesters on campus to continue their protests, stating that many companies are “eager to hire you” and included a link to apply at his company. The post sparked controversy online, with Hims & Hers’s stock going down by a noticeable amount from over $13.12 per share on Wednesday to $11.35 per share by Sunday evening.
