Five Below Inc. Common Stock (NASDAQ: FIVE)
The Complaint alleges that during the Class Period, Defendants provided investors with false and/or materially misleading information about FIVE's financial strength and operations, including its outlook for the first quarter and full year 2024. On June 5, 2024, FIVE announced disappointing first quarter 2024 sales result and cut its full year 2024 guidance stating, "Net sales are expected to be in the range of $3.79 billion to $3.87 billion based on opening approximately 230 new stores." At the same time, FIVE claimed that for the second quarter, "Net sales are expected to be in the range of $830 million to $850 million based on opening approximately 60 new stores." In response to the disclosure, FIVE's stock price declined $14.07/per share within the span of just one day. Plaintiff brings this action on behalf of himself and other similarly situated investors to recover the losses they sustained as a result of Defendants’ allegedly false and/or materially misleading statements.
