2017 Stock Plan and 2020 Equity Incentive Plan

In July 2017, Hims, Inc. (“Hims”) adopted the 2017 Stock Plan (the “2017 Plan”). Under the 2017 Plan, the board of directors of Hims granted awards, including incentive stock options, non-statutory stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock awards, RSU awards, and other stock awards to employees, directors, and consultants of Hims.

In January 2021, the Board of Directors adopted the 2020 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2020 Plan”) and reserved 21,000,000 authorized shares of Class A common stock the Company could issue. In addition, up to 19,000,000 shares of Hims Class A common stock subject to awards granted under the 2017 Plan that were forfeited, expired, or lapsed unexercised or unsettled could be added to the 2020 Plan reserve. Beginning on January 1, 2022 and ending on January 1, 2031, the number of authorized shares of common stock under the 2020 Plan will automatically increase each fiscal year by 5% of the total number of Class A and Class V common stock issued and outstanding on the last day of the preceding fiscal year unless the Board of Directors approves a lesser number. As of December 31, 2024, there were 54,360,277 and 15,162,111 shares of Class A common stock reserved and available for issuance, respectively, under the 2020 Plan. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, 905 shares of Class A common stock subject to awards granted under the 2017 Plan that were forfeited after the adoption of the 2020 Plan were added to the 2020 Plan reserve. Additionally, on January 1, 2025, 11,041,860 shares of Class A common stock were automatically added to the 2020 Plan reserve. Therefore, as of September 30, 2025, there were 65,403,042 shares of Class A common stock reserved and 23,007,602 shares of Class A common stock available for grant under the 2020 Stock Plan.

2020 Employee Stock Purchase Plan

In January 2021, the Board of Directors adopted the Company’s Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”). The total shares of Class A common stock initially reserved under the ESPP is limited to 4,000,000 shares of Class A common stock. Beginning on January 1, 2022 and ending on January 1, 2041 (unless extended by the Board of Directors and approved by the Company’s shareholders), the number of authorized shares of common stock under the ESPP will automatically increase each fiscal year by the lesser of (i) 1% of the total number of Class A and Class V common stock issued and outstanding on the last day of the preceding fiscal year, (ii) 12,000,000 shares of Class A common stock, or (iii) a number of shares of Class A common stock determined by the Board of Directors.

There were no shares added to the ESPP reserve on January 1, 2025. Therefore, as of September 30, 2025, there were 6,047,919 shares of Class A common stock reserved for issuance under the ESPP. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company issued 251,818 and 366,524 shares of Class A common stock, respectively, under the ESPP. No shares were issued under the ESPP during the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024. As of September 30, 2025, there were 4,190,125 shares of Class A common stock available for issuance under the ESPP.

Under the ESPP, eligible employees may purchase the Company’s Class A common stock during pre-specified offering periods at a discount established by the Company’s compensation committee. The purchase price is 85% of the lower of the fair market value of the Company’s Class A common stock on the first trading day of the offering period or the fair market value on the purchase date. Under the ESPP, the Company may specify offering periods with durations of not more than 27 months, and may specify shorter purchase periods within each offering period.

Employees participating in the ESPP commence payroll withholdings that accumulate through the end of the respective offering period. As of September 30, 2025, $2.8 million has been withheld via employee payroll deductions for employees who have opted to participate in the purchase periods ending November 2025.

As of September 30, 2025, there was $4.8 million of unrecognized stock-based compensation related to the ESPP which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.06 years.

Stock Options

The Company has historically granted stock options prior to 2024, which for new employees generally vest over four years, with 25% vesting one year after the vesting commencement date and then 1/48th of the total grant vesting monthly thereafter. Options granted to existing employees generally vest 1/48th of the total grant monthly over four years. Options granted are exercisable within a period not exceeding ten years from the grant date.

In June 2020, the board of directors of Hims granted 3,246,139 and 1,623,070 stock options to the CEO with an exercise price of $2.43 to vest upon either (i) an acquisition of the Company with per share consideration equal to at least $22.99 and $38.31, respectively, or (ii) a per share price on a public stock exchange that is at least equal to $22.99 and $38.31, respectively. The CEO is required to be employed at the time the per share consideration/price is achieved in order to receive the awards, but the awards are not subject to any other service condition. The Company recognized expense related to these awards based on the fair value and derived service period as measured using a Monte Carlo simulation model, and the expense is accelerated if the requirements outlined in (i) and (ii) above are achieved. The grant date fair value was $16.6 million for these awards. The $22.99 per share price threshold related to awards for the 3,246,139 stock options was achieved in February 2021. The $38.31 per share threshold related to awards for the 1,623,070 stock options was achieved in February 2025. As of September 30, 2025, 3,212,133 of these stock options have been exercised at a weighted average exercise price of $2.43. As of September 30, 2025, all stock-based compensation expense for the awards has been recognized.

In February 2022, the Board of Directors granted 2,085,640 stock options to the CEO with an exercise price of $5.01 that vest in four equal tranches. On each anniversary date after February 24, 2022, 25% of the shares subject to the options will vest provided that (i) the CEO is employed on the anniversary date and (ii) the closing price of the Company’s Class A common stock is more than $10 per share in 20 of the 30 trading days prior to the anniversary date. The award is not subject to any other service condition. Vesting is cumulative in subsequent years if the market condition was not previously met. The Company recognizes expense related to this award for each tranche individually based on the fair value and requisite service period, which is the greater of the derived service period and the explicit service period. The fair value and the derived service term of the market condition were both measured using a Monte Carlo simulation model. The total grant date fair value was $3.8
million for this award. As of September 30, 2025, 1,564,230 shares have vested and no shares have been exercised. As of September 30, 2025, there was $0.1 million of remaining compensation expense to be recognized over a period of 0.40 years.

In March 2025, the Board of Directors granted 557,244 stock options to the CEO with an exercise price of $34.71 that vest at the end of a three-year period, with the number of shares earned ranging from 0% to 250% of the target, provided that (i) the CEO remains employed at the end of the period and (ii) the Company achieves certain revenue and Adjusted EBITDA performance metrics related to the 2027 fiscal year. The total grant date fair value was $11.0 million, which was based on the probable achievement of 100% of the target and measured using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The assumptions used in the model were an expected term of 6.41 years, an expected volatility of 54.0%, a risk-free interest rate of 4.0%, and an expected dividend yield of 0%. As of September 30, 2025, there was $8.9 million of remaining compensation expense to be recognized over a period of 2.42 years. The Company will continue to evaluate the likelihood of achieving the performance metrics on a quarterly basis.
