Investors' attitudes about Five Below   (NASDAQ: FIVE) have improved sharply in the last few months. While the stock is still trailing the market in 2020, its losses are much improved from the 60% declines Wall Street saw in mid-March. The retailer's subsequent rally will be put to the t...

Got this from FIVE - Five Below Has Some Big Questions to Answer for Investors This Week

Growth is good

Another point of interest from the business channel about Amazon. They, meaning Amazon, is discontinuing lower priced items. Claim they can't make enough money on those items to even carry them in stock. This is "FIVE'S sweet spot.

Get ready for a huge run in 2019. I see $150.00 a share in 2019.

A christmas present come early

For the full year, our Zacks Consensus Estimates are projecting earnings of $2.63 per share and revenue of $1.56 billion, which would represent changes of +46.93% and +21.66%, respectively, from the prior yea

Anyone interested in this stock should find this article of great interest. Long term two factors stick look very good to me. One, shoppers find the stores a great and interesting place to shop for less expensive items. Kind of Amazon proof!!. Two, the growth moving forward, 745 stores with 2500 coming in the next 2 years. 30+% margins. Seems like a really good combination.

Seems to me FIVE s a real bargain at these levels!!

FIVE buy 99.035

it's like a dollar store and a novelty store together with better stuff $5 instead of just $1
good deals on headphones and small electronics when I visited
bulk candy, exercise equipment, super cheerful helpful staff, store music
wide open orderly layout with room, unique neat selection, products with high profit potential
have a lot of retail store work experience, this is a good store

buying covered calls on margin makes 15.7% a month or 5.25x a year compounded
this is whatever large funds are used and even if the stock goes nowhere
but the SCTR is above 50 so it is at least mildly bullish
great timing with stochastics in lower boundary at the gap up area but this is not really required here with this more relaxed method
perfect stock for covereds that cost a lot so it seems boring and keeps flippers away

$FIVE Five Below: The 3Q Release Will Favor The Bears, But It Should Present A Buying Opportunity, Says UBS http://www.smarteranalyst.com/2014/12/05/five-below-the-3q-release-will-favor-the-bears-but-it-should-present-a-buying-opportunity-says-ubs/

Negative SA article.

Seems to cover new ground in that it highlights why consensus view of 2,000+ stores over time is exaggerated by company and 1,300 is more realistic.

Do you still think Seeking Alpha has it right as it relates to FIVE?

http://seekingalpha.com/article/1489812-five-below-overvalued-and-unproven?source=yahoo

"Five Below is currently trading at 54 times forward earnings, well above its competitors whom trade around 15-18 times forward earnings. Should we see comparable same store sales continue to slow, in combination with any hints of a store growth slowdown, multiple contraction would be devastating to shareholders. Best case, if the company was able to successfully dominate new markets with additional stores the company would then be just fairly valued. Such high valuations are rarely reserved for companies selling Snickers and cheap iPhone cases."

"As the economy starts to turn around and income rise, I would expect the declines to continue."

I love the store. And, expecting to invest after rebalance.

Nevermind! Lol

You think that will happen today?

Agreed. I will buy when it drops down to $13.

$17.00....BS!!

Exactly....

I didn't mean to reference that it is similiar to WAL-MART.

It isn't.

Dollar General or Dollar Tree is it's niche audience.

Perfect for getting the kids out of the house and picking up something for them cheaply.

Kids need attention...if I can five something for under $5 bucks to keep them occupied for a few hours...I am there.

Overview
Five Below is a rapidly growing specialty value retailer offering a broad range of trend-right, high-quality merchandise targeted at the aspirational teen and pre-teen customer. We offer a dynamic, edited assortment of exciting products, all priced at $5 and below, including select brands and licensed merchandise across a number of categories, which we refer to as “worlds”: Style, Room, Sports, Media, Crafts, Party, Candy and Seasonal (which we refer to as “Now”). We believe we are transforming the shopping experience of our target demographic with a unique merchandising strategy and high-energy retail concept that our customers consider fun and exciting. Our compelling value proposition and the dynamic nature of our merchandise offering appeal to teens and pre-teens, as well as customers across a variety of age groups beyond our target demographic.
Five Below was founded in 2002 by our Executive Chairman, David Schlessinger, and our President and Chief Executive Officer, Thomas Vellios, who recognized a market need for a fun and affordable shopping destination aimed at our target customer. We opened the first Five Below store in 2002 and have since been expanding across the eastern half of the U.S. At the end of fiscal 2011, we operated a total of 192 locations across 16 states. Our stores average approximately 7,500 square feet and are typically located within power, community and lifestyle shopping centers across a variety of urban, suburban and semi-rural markets. We plan to open approximately 50 stores in 2012, and we believe we have the opportunity to grow our store base to more than 2,000 locations over time.
We believe our powerful business model has resulted in strong financial performance irrespective of the economic environment:

•
We have achieved positive comparable store sales during each of the last 23 fiscal quarters.


•
Our comparable store sales increased by 12.1% in fiscal 2009, 15.6% in fiscal 2010 and 7.9% in fiscal 2011 with positive comparable store sales performance across all geographic regions and store-year classes.


•
Over the past two fiscal years, we expanded our store base from 102 stores to 192 stores, representing a compound annual growth rate of 37.2%.


•
Between fiscal 2009 and 2011, our net sales increased from $125.1 million to $297.1 million, representing a 54.1% compound annual growth rate.


•
Over the same period, our operating income increased from $6.9 million to $26.2 million, representing a compound annual growth rate of 95.3%.

I agree. I really like this business model. I think it is closer to a Dollar General company model than Wal-Mart, but it has just started it's expansion.

I have a feeling this is going to storm through the nation.

Think about Wal-Mart and Targets toy sections, they are pretty lame.

Toys R Us is just too darn expensive in any economic times.

The old KB Toys of yesteryear doesn't exist anymore. (use to love that store)

If I was young and my great grandmother was still around this would be the place we would visit every week, besides McDonalds, of course.

Let's see how this goes with the IPO.
