2026 Revenue Guidance $798M–$804M Full year 2026 outlook; 36% year-over-year growth at midpoint
non-GAAP income from operations financial
"Non-GAAP income from operations increased 208% to $46.2 million compared to non-GAAP income from operations of $15.0 million in Q1 2025."
Non-GAAP income from operations is a measure of a company's profit from its core business activities, calculated without including certain expenses or income that are typically added back or excluded in standard accounting reports. It provides a clearer picture of how well the company's main operations are performing by removing items like one-time costs or gains that might distort the overall results. Investors use it to better understand the company's ongoing profitability, separate from unusual or non-recurring items.
free cash flow financial
"Free cash flow increased to $41.6 million compared to free cash flow of $4.2 million in Q1 2025."
Free cash flow is the amount of money a company has left over after paying all its expenses and investing in its business, like buying equipment or updating facilities. It shows how much cash is available to reward shareholders, pay down debt, or save for future growth. This helps investors understand if a company is financially healthy and able to grow.
LTM calculated billings financial
"LTM calculated billings increased 52% year-over-year to $769.9 million, compared to $507.0 million as of March 31, 2025."
operating margin financial
"We expect non-GAAP income from operations to be between $205 million and $215 million, reflecting year-over-year growth of 76% and non-GAAP operating margin of 26% at the midpoint."
Operating margin shows how much profit a company makes from its core business activities after paying for costs like wages and materials. It’s useful because it tells you how efficiently a company is running—higher margins mean it keeps more money from each dollar of sales, which can indicate better management or stronger products.
stock-based compensation expense financial
"We adjust the following items from one or more of our non-GAAP financial measures Stock-based compensation expense."
Stock-based compensation expense is the value that a company records when it gives employees or executives shares or options to buy shares as part of their pay. It matters because it shows the true cost of paying employees this way, which can affect the company's profits and how investors see its financial health.
Regulation FD regulatory
"The Company uses its ir.hingehealth.com website as a means of disclosing material non-public information ... for complying with its disclosure obligations under Regulation FD."
Regulation FD is a rule that prevents company insiders, like executives, from sharing important information with some people before others get it. It matters because it helps ensure all investors have equal access to key news, making the stock market fairer and reducing chances of insider trading.

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 guidance to GAAP income from operations 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. 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.
Hinge Health Earnings Webcast
We will host a conference call and webcast for investors on May 5, 2026 at 1:30 p.m. Pacific Time (4:30 p.m. Eastern Time) to discuss our financial results, business highlights and financial outlook. The live webcast of the conference call can be accessed by registering online at ir.hingehealth.com/events-presentations. Following completion of the event, a webcast replay will also be available at ir.hingehealth.com for 12 months.

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 and number of intra-year 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.

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 (used in) 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 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 (used in) 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 quarter ended March 31, 2026 we used a forecasted annual tax rate of 24% and for the quarter ended March 31, 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.
