CLASS PERIOD: December 1,
2022 to July 16, 2024
ALLEGATIONS: According to the complaint, 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.
This information included FIVE's statement that net sales are
expected to be in the range of $826
million to $846 million based
on opening approximately 55 to 60 new stores in the first quarter.
Further, FIVE claimed that net sales for the full year are expected
to be in the range of $3.97 billion
to $4.07 billion based on opening
between 225 and 235 new stores. Investors discovered that
these statements were false and/or materially misleading when, 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. On July 16, 2024,
FIVE announced the resignation of Joel
Anderson from his positions as President and Chief Executive
Officer, as well as from his seat on the Company's Board of
Directors. Concurrently, FIVE projected a decrease of 6% to 7% in
comparable sales for the fiscal second quarter ending August 3, 2024. Following this news, FIVE's stock
price dropped over 25% on July 17,
2024.
