Hims & Hers Health to acquire Australia’s Eucalyptus for up to .15 billion


Hims & Hers Health said on Thursday it will acquire Australian digital ⁠health company Eucalyptus in a deal valued ​at up ​to $1.15 billion, ​as the U.S. telehealth platform seeks to broaden its personalized care business into ⁠new ‌international markets.

The deal would ⁠give Hims & Hers a foothold in Australia and Japan while deepening its presence in ‌the United Kingdom, Germany, and Canada through partnerships with established regional ​operators.

Eucalyptus operates several consumer-focused brands globally, including weight-loss program Juniper and men’s telehealth brand Pilot, and ⁠has served more than 775,000 customers, according ‌to Hims & Hers.

Hims & Hers ‌is currently facing a lawsuit from Danish drugmaker Novo Nordisk after a ⁠crackdown from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration ⁠forced it to ⁠abruptly withdraw its newly launched $49 copy of Novo’s blockbuster weight-loss pill Wegovy.

The ​deal is ‌expected to close in the middle of calendar year 2026. About $240 million will be payable in cash upon closing of ​the acquisition, Hims & Hers ‌said.
