Five Below Inc (symbol: FIVE-Q) has shown resilience in the market, fully recovering from previous sell-offs while other competitors lag behind. The dollar store sector has seen an uplift, with Five Below exhibiting impressive revenue growth of 20% this year and expanding its store base at a commendable rate of 9%. However, sustaining such growth presents challenges, particularly as the company's new CEO introduces changes that may alter its trajectory. While the company is branching out into international markets like Korea, its current valuation at 35 times earnings raises concerns of being overvalued, especially with margins not yet back to previous highs. The recent announcement of stronger-than-expected results, alongside the co-founder's departure and a strategic partnership with Uber for faster delivery, presents a cautiously optimistic outlook for the company moving forward.

COMMENT

The question was comparing the two companies as an investment. Walmart is a very large blue chip company that is not growing quickly. He prefers Five Below which is growing faster. There should be a very quick payback in nine months. There is nothing quite like it. They have just under 1400 stores.

TOP PICK

Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly We reiterate FIVE, a retailer of home items priced at $5 or under, as a TOP PICK. The company is a good hedge against a slowing economy, especially heading into Q4 when consumers look to purchase for the holiday. EPS growth is expected to exceed 25% next year and recently reported earnings supported a ROE of 21%. We like that cash reserves are growing, while the company is buying back shares. We recommend trailing up the stop-loss from $120 to $125, looking to achieve $170 -- upside potential over 16%. Yield 0% (Analysts’ price target is $169.89)

DON'T BUY

Report tomorrow He owns other dollar stores. This skews more to discretionary items than staples. He prefers retailers to sell customer needs, not wants. Prefers Dollar General.

TOP PICK

Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly As a retailer of home items priced at $5 or under, FIVE is a good hedge against a slowing economy. Revenues have grown by 7% and recently reported earnings supported a ROE of 24%. Management has already provided guidance that reflects the realities of supply chain and inflationary pressures. Cash reserves are growing, despite the company buying back shares. We recommend a stop loss at $90, looking to achieve $188 -- upside potential over 55%. Yield 0% (Analysts’ price target is $187.72)

TOP PICK

Stock went down recently. He now considers the valuation a good entry point. Business model allows them to pay back new store locations in 8 months. Able to grow without raising any debt. He recommended it in the past and continues to like the stock.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

A good long-term investment, but it swoons at times without a catalyst. Wait for that swoon to step in.

PARTIAL BUY

$5 and below and for teenagers and tweens. He would buy if he did not already own it. Buy half and if it sells off, you can buy more.

WATCH

Everything is $5 and below. If it pulls back or if it went sideways and earnings caught up to valuation it would be a buy. It is probably fully priced today. If it got down to 35 times earnings you would probably be okay.

WAIT

It was a Top Pick a couple of years ago. It has run up so much that the valuation is on the high end. It can ebb and flow. Wait for a couple of quarters where same store sales are weak and then get in. Now is not the time.
