Omada Health: Helping Patients, Investors As Well?

  • Omada's IPO impresses with rapid revenue growth and a unique approach to chronic disease management, but the company remains unprofitable. Valuation is stretched at 5-6x sales, especially given continued operating losses and the need to prove sustainable growth. Key risks, other than losses, include reliance on few PBMs, potential engagement/churn issues, and privacy concerns, making the outlook uncertain.
