SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Hinge Health, Inc. (NYSE: HNGE) today announced financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2026 and provided a business update.

“We delivered another strong quarter ahead of expectations, generating $213 million in revenue with 53% year-over-year growth, while more than tripling free cash flow from a year ago. This quarter’s outperformance was driven by continued high member conversion and reflects our ability to deliver a great experience, improve member outcomes and lower client costs,” said Daniel Perez, Co-Founder and CEO, Hinge Health. “We also announced the acquisition of Cylinder Health today, marking our entry into gastrointestinal (GI) care. Combined with the strength of our core musculoskeletal care programs and the rapid adoption of our Migraine Care Program, our expansion into GI is another step toward our vision of building a durable, multi-condition platform to automate the delivery of care. Building on this momentum, we're raising our revenue and profitability expectations for the remainder of 2026, and are confident in our trajectory for 2027.”

We expect non-GAAP income from operations to be between $61 million and $63 million, reflecting year-over-year growth of 104% and non-GAAP operating margin of 28% at the midpoint.
  • Full Year 2026: We are raising our revenue guidance to be between $856 million and $860 million, reflecting year-over-year growth of 46% at the midpoint. We are raising our non-GAAP income from operations guidance to be between $236 million and $244 million, reflecting year-over-year growth of 101% and non-GAAP operating margin of 28% at the midpoint.

Share Repurchase Program

On November 10, 2025, our board of directors approved a share repurchase program with authorization to purchase up to $250 million of our Class A common stock. As of July 29, 2026, we had repurchased an aggregate of $196.5 million of our Class A common stock under the program. On July 29, 2026, our board of directors approved an increase to the program, resulting in $300.0 million of our Class A common stock available for future repurchase, for a total aggregate amount authorized under the program of $496.5 million as of such date.

Repurchases under the program may be made in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions or by other methods, with the amount, manner, price, and timing of repurchases to be determined at our discretion, depending on a variety of factors, including business, economic and market conditions, prevailing stock prices, corporate and regulatory requirements, and other considerations. Open market repurchases will be structured to occur in accordance with applicable federal securities laws, including within the pricing and volume requirements of Rule 10b-18 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. We may also, from time to time, enter into Rule 10b5-1 plans to facilitate repurchases of our shares under this authorization. This program does not obligate us to repurchase any particular dollar amount or number of shares of Class A common stock, has no expiration date, and may be modified, suspended or terminated at any time at the discretion of our board of directors. We expect to fund repurchases with existing cash and cash equivalents and ongoing cash from operations.

Statement Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release uses non-GAAP financial measures, which are not calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles of the United States (GAAP). For more information about these non-GAAP financial measures, including the limitations of such measures, and for a reconciliation of each measure to the most directly comparable measure calculated in accordance with GAAP, please see the “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” section below.

Moreover, we have not reconciled our non-GAAP income from operations and non-GAAP operating margin guidance to GAAP income from operations and GAAP operating margin because we do not and are not able to provide guidance for GAAP income from operations due to the uncertainty and potential variability of stock-based compensation expense, employer payroll tax expense related to stock-based compensation, amortization of intangible assets and adjustments, such as acquisition-related expense, which are reconciling items between non-GAAP and GAAP income from operations and operating margin. Because such items cannot be provided without unreasonable efforts, we are unable to provide a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measure guidance to the corresponding GAAP measures. However, such items could have a significant impact on our future GAAP income from operations.

Glossary of Terms

LTM Calculated Billings: We believe calculated billings on a last 12-months basis helps investors better understand our performance for a particular period given the seasonality in our model due to quarterly fluctuations based on the timing of new client launches. We anticipate that this seasonality will continue and therefore focus on LTM calculated billings. Our revenue generally does not reflect this seasonality and these quarterly fluctuations given that we recognize revenue ratably over the term that members have access to our platform. LTM calculated billings are defined as total revenue, plus the change in deferred revenue, less the change in contract assets for a given 12-month period.

Clients: We view this number as an important metric to assess the performance of our business as an increased number of clients drives growth, increases brand awareness, and helps provide scale to our business. Clients are defined as businesses or organizations, which we call entities, that have at least one active agreement with us at the end of a particular period. Entities that procure our platform through our partners are counted as individual clients. We do not count our partners as clients, unless they also separately have at least one active client agreement with us. When a partner has an agreement with us for their fully-insured population, that partner is deemed to be one client, despite there being multiple fully-insured employers within that entity that have access to our platform.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to our results prepared in accordance with GAAP, we believe the following non-GAAP financial measures, including non-GAAP gross profit and gross margin, non-GAAP income from operations and operating margin, non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP net income attributable to common stockholders, diluted, non-GAAP net income per share attributable to common stockholders, diluted (which we refer to as "non-GAAP diluted net income per share") and free cash flow and free cash flow margin included in this press release, provide users of our financial information with additional useful information in evaluating our performance and liquidity and allows them to more readily compare our results across periods without the effect of non-cash and other items as detailed below. Additionally, our management and board of directors use our non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate our performance and liquidity, identify trends and make strategic decisions.

There are limitations to the use of the non-GAAP financial measures presented in this press release. For example, our non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate non-GAAP financial measures differently than we do, limiting the usefulness of those measures for comparative purposes. Our non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as alternatives to gross profit, gross margin, income from operations, net income attributable to common stockholders, net income per share attributable to common stockholders, net cash provided by operating activities or any other measure of financial performance calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP.

Non-GAAP Gross Profit and Gross Margin

We define non-GAAP gross profit as gross profit presented in accordance with GAAP, adjusted to exclude non-cash, non-operational and non-recurring items, including stock-based compensation expense, employer payroll tax expense related to stock-based compensation, and amortization of intangible assets. We define non-GAAP gross margin as non-GAAP gross profit divided by revenue.

The principal limitation of non-GAAP gross profit and non-GAAP gross margin is that they exclude significant expenses that are required by GAAP to be recorded in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, including non-cash expenses, and the impact of non-recurring charges that we do not consider to be indicative of our ongoing core operations.

Non-GAAP Income From Operations and Operating Margin

We define non-GAAP income from operations as income (loss) from operations presented in accordance with GAAP, adjusted to exclude non-cash, non-operational and non-recurring items, including stock-based compensation expense, employer payroll tax expense related to stock-based compensation, amortization of intangible assets and acquisition-related expenses. We define non-GAAP operating margin as non-GAAP income from operations divided by revenue.

The principal limitation of non-GAAP income from operations and non-GAAP operating margin is that they exclude significant expenses that are required by GAAP to be recorded in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, including non-cash expenses, and the impact of non-recurring charges that we do not consider to be indicative of our ongoing core operations.

Non-GAAP Operating Expenses

We define non-GAAP operating expenses as operating expenses presented in accordance with GAAP, adjusted to exclude non-cash, non-operational and non-recurring items, including stock-based compensation expense, employer payroll tax expense related to stock-based compensation, amortization of intangible assets and acquisition-related expenses.

The principal limitation of non-GAAP research and development expenses, non-GAAP sales and marketing expenses and non-GAAP general and administrative expenses is that they exclude significant expenses that are required by GAAP to be recorded in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, including non-cash expenses, and the impact of non-recurring charges that we do not consider to be indicative of our ongoing core operations.

Non-GAAP Net Income Attributable to Common Stockholders, Diluted and Non-GAAP Net Income Per Share Attributable to Common Stockholders, Diluted

We define non-GAAP net income attributable to common stockholders, diluted and non-GAAP net income per share attributable to common stockholders, diluted (which we refer to as “non-GAAP diluted net income per share”) as GAAP net income attributable to common stockholders and GAAP net income per share attributable to common stockholders, diluted, respectively, adjusted to exclude non-cash, non-operational and non-recurring items, including stock-based compensation, employer payroll taxes related to stock-based compensation, amortization of intangible assets, acquisition-related expenses and the income tax effects related to non-GAAP adjustments.

Free Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow Margin

We define free cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities plus cash used for employer payroll taxes at IPO related to stock-based compensation less purchases of property, equipment and software (including capitalized internal-use software). We believe that free cash flow is a helpful indicator of liquidity that provides information to management and investors about the amount of cash generated or used by our operations that, after taking into account the employer payroll taxes paid as part of the vesting of shares at IPO as well as investments in property, equipment and software (including capitalized internal-use software), can be used for strategic initiatives, including investing in our business and strengthening our financial position. The principal limitation of free cash flow is that it does not represent the total increase or decrease in our cash balance for a given period. We define free cash flow margin as free cash flow divided by revenue.

We adjust the following items from one or more of our non-GAAP financial measures:

Stock-based compensation expense. We exclude stock-based compensation expense, which is a non-cash expense, from certain of our non-GAAP financial measures because we believe that excluding this item provides meaningful supplemental information regarding our operating performance.

Employer payroll tax expense related to stock-based compensation. We exclude expenses for employer payroll taxes related to stock-based compensation from certain of our non-GAAP financial measures because we believe that excluding this item provides meaningful supplemental information regarding operational performance. In particular, this expense is tied to the exercise, vesting or sale of underlying equity awards and the price of our common stock at the time of exercise, vesting or sale which may vary from period to period independent of the operating performance of our business.

Amortization of intangible assets. We exclude amortization of intangible assets, which is a non-cash expense, from certain of our non-GAAP financial measures. Our expenses for amortization of intangible assets are inconsistent in amount and frequency because they are significantly affected by the timing, size of acquisitions and the inherent subjective nature of purchase price allocations. We exclude these amortization expenses because we do not believe these expenses have a direct correlation to the operating performance of our business.

Acquisition-related expenses. We exclude certain charges that are attributable to acquiring businesses. We exclude these charges because we do not believe these charges have a direct correlation to the operating performance of our business.

Income tax effect of non-GAAP adjustments. We exclude the valuation allowance that is attributable to our non-GAAP income beginning in 2025. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 we used a forecasted annual tax rate of 24% and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 we used an annual tax rate of 20%. These tax rates reflect current available information, as well as other factors and assumptions. We will periodically re-evaluate this tax rate, as necessary, for significant events, relevant tax law changes, material changes in the forecasted geographic earnings mix, and any significant transactions.
