Business overview

Business Overview Our vision is to build a new health system that transforms outcomes, experience and costs by using technology to scale and automate the delivery of care. Hinge Health leverages software, including AI, to automate care for joint and muscle health, delivering an outstanding member experience, improved member outcomes, and cost reductions for our clients and members. We have designed our platform to address a broad spectrum of MSK care—from acute injury, to chronic pain, to post-surgical rehabilitation. Members receive personalized and automated MSK care through our AI-powered motion tracking technology and a proprietary electrical nerve stimulation wearable device, all designed and monitored by our AI-supported care team of licensed physical therapists, physicians, and board-certified health coaches.

Our platform can help to ease members’ pain, improve their function, and reduce their need for surgeries, all while driving health equity by allowing members to engage in their exercise therapy sessions from anywhere and embrace movement as a way of life. We have developed an efficient go-to-market model by working directly with our partners and clients. We seek to be the most validated and the easiest to buy solution on the market. Our clients are primarily self-insured employers and include many of the nation’s leading enterprises across a broad range of industries and sizes. Within this segment, we also serve many public sector self-insured employers, such as state and local city governments and labor unions.

In most instances, for our self-insured clients, we partner with clients’ health plans, TPAs, PBMs, or other ecosystem entities to reduce the friction of contracting, procurement, security and IT reviews, onboarding, and billing. We also serve health plans’ fully-insured and Medicare Advantage populations and federal insurance plans. We believe that we grow efficiently because of our scalable, repeatable go-to-market model. We sell through our direct sales force and our partners. Once we contract with a client, we are most often the sole digital MSK care provider offered to their contracted lives, and our average contract term was three years as of December 31, 2025. For the term of each contract, we are able to enroll, engage, and re-engage the client’s eligible lives, driving a recurring, repeatable revenue model.

As of December 31, 2025, we had over 60 partners. Our partners include the five largest national health plans by self-insured lives, and the top three PBMs by market share. Our software-led, AI-powered delivery model not only aims to provide a better experience for our members and a less expensive alternative for our clients, but also allows us to innovate and continuously improve our platform. Our AI-powered motion tracking technology, TrueMotion, allows us to deliver highly scalable care remotely and reduce the human hours associated with traditional physical therapy. According to our estimates based on data from 2025, our platform reduced the number of human care team hours associated with traditional physical therapy by approximately 97%.

We have done this while improving our high member satisfaction over time. We are a research-led organization and routinely expand our platform with new programs, capabilities, and features. Over the last four years, we launched new programs to address six additional affected areas; launched Enso to deliver a non-addictive, non-invasive alternative for pain relief; developed HingeConnect for real-time targeted care support and external provider coordination; and integrated TrueMotion, our proprietary AI-powered motion tracking technology, to replace wearable sensors for our members. In 2022, we launched women’s pelvic health, a specialized care program within our chronic program, and, in 2023, we launched a fall prevention program for eligible lives in our Medicare Advantage population.

In 2025, we launched and began selling our high-performance in-person provider network for MSK care, HingeSelect, which allows us to now provide members with end-to-end MSK care while further reducing costs for members, employers, and health plans. Our Platform We are a leading technology platform for individuals seeking to treat and prevent joint and muscle pain. We leverage technology and AI to automate and scale a care plan designed and monitored by our care team, while delivering improved member outcomes, personalized member experiences, and cost reductions for our clients. 1 Adherence is one of the largest challenges with physical therapy. We have designed our platform to meet our members where they are, allowing them to choose where, when, and how often they engage in their exercise therapy sessions and embrace movement as a way of life. We address both the physical and mental health challenges of coping with and moving past pain. […]

Key risk disclosures

Risk Factors Investing in our Class A common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described below, together with all of the other information in this Annual Report, before making a decision to invest in our Class A common stock. If any of the risks occur, our business, results of operations, and financial condition could be materially adversely affected. In that event, the trading price of our Class A common stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial also may impair our business and materially adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.

Risks Related to Our Business, Operations, and Industry We have a history of net losses, we anticipate increasing expenses in the future, and we may not be able to maintain profitability. Although we have experienced rapid growth recently, if we fail to effectively manage our growth, we may be unable to execute our business plan and adequately address competitive challenges, and our business, results of operations, and financial condition could be materially adversely affected. While we have experienced revenue growth over recent periods, we may not be able to sustain or increase our growth or maintain profitability in the future. We incurred a net loss of $528. 3 million and $11.

9 million for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. As of December 31, 2025, we had an accumulated deficit of $1. 05 billion. While we have achieved net income on a quarterly basis in certain periods, we have incurred net losses on an annual basis since our inception. We expect our costs will continue to increase in the foreseeable future as we expect to invest additional funds to grow our business, maintain and increase our members and clients, expand our engagement with partners, hire additional employees, including our care team, develop new programs and enhance our platform. We may not be able to sustain our growth or achieve or maintain profitability in the future.

Our efforts to maintain and increase our client base and our members may be more challenging than we anticipate, and we may not be able to maintain the historical growth rate of our client base and our members. Our efforts to grow our business may prove more expensive than we currently anticipate, and we may not succeed in increasing our revenue sufficiently to offset these expenses. Our limited operating history may make it difficult to evaluate our current business and our future prospects. We have encountered and will continue to encounter risks and difficulties frequently experienced by growing companies in rapidly changing industries. We have recently experienced, and expect to continue to experience, rapid growth in our operations.

This growth has placed, and will continue to place, a significant strain on our operational and financial resources and our personnel. We may not be able to manage our anticipated future growth effectively, including due to a failure to maintain or enhance our information technology infrastructure, financial and accounting systems and controls, and regulatory compliance framework, or a failure to manage expanded operations and employees in geographically distributed locations. In addition to the expected costs to grow our business, we also expect to incur additional legal, accounting, and other expenses as we grow and operate as a publicly traded company. These expenditures may be more costly than we expect, and if we do not achieve the benefits anticipated from these investments, or if the realization of these benefits is delayed, they may not result in increased revenue or growth in our business.

If we are unable to successfully address any of these risks and challenges as we encounter them, our business, results of operations, and financial condition could be adversely affected. 18 We may be unable to successfully execute on our growth initiatives, business strategies, or operating plans. Our growth initiatives, strategies, and operating plans are designed to enhance our business and expand our platform, programs, and products. The anticipated benefits from our growth initiatives, strategies and operating efforts are based on assumptions that may prove to be inaccurate. Moreover, we may not be able to successfully complete these growth initiatives, strategies, and operating plans and realize all of the benefits, including growth targets and cost savings, that we expect to achieve, or it may be more costly to do so than we anticipate.
