Five Below Inc

It is in their portfolio and has been the biggest disappointment this year. Management in a conference call knows where they dropped the ball and identified issues that are fixable. There could be an industry issue too.

Sentiment toward the company is fairly poor right now and toward the discretionary sector more widely. FIVE remains a strong company fundamentally with a long runway for growth via store openings but we might give them one more quarter for a bit more clarity/visibility before adding to the name.

The momentum is highly negative, however, we like FIVE at an 18x to 20x forward earnings valuation range. At current levels of 22.5x forward earnings, FIVE is very close to this range and below historical levels. We are hesitant to add more here, but the stock could be bottoming and there is future value if FIVE can execute its plan.

COMMENT
Five Below Inc

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
Five Below Inc
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)
