Foolish Take

The top-line stagnation that has been frustrating GoodRX investors did not improve during the first three months of 2026. On May 6, the medication savings platform reported first-quarter sales that declined by 4.4% year over year to $194 million.

Revenue dropped, but GoodRx’s pharma direct business is encouraging investors. The stock rose more than 10% following its first-quarter report. Shareholders seem pleased with an 82% year-to-year gain for the company’s Pharma Direct business. At $52 million, the Pharma Direct business is responsible for about 27% of total revenue.

With the average annual cost for a family health plan reaching $27,000 in 2026, fewer Americans have access to a primary care physician. The rising cost of traditional access to prescription drugs has been a strong tailwind for Hims & Hers Health’s alternative platform.

His & Hers will announce first-quarter results on May 11, 2026. In the fourth quarter of 2025, the company reported 13% year over year subscriber growth. With fourth-quarter revenue that surged 59% year over year, it’s clearly outperforming GoodRx.
