Description: FIVE Five Below January 06, 2026

Five Below, Inc. (NASDAQ:FIVE) is a U.S. specialty value retailer that targets teens and young adults with a curated assortment of low-price, trend-forward merchandise. Its product mix spans fashion accessories (socks, jewelry, loungewear), personal-care items, home décor (lamps, blankets, novelty furniture), sports and fitness gear, toys, tech accessories, arts-craft supplies, school essentials, party goods, and a range of candy and snack items, including seasonal and chilled beverages. The company operates under a “$5-and-under” pricing model and has grown from its 2002 rebranding (formerly Cheap Holdings) to a national footprint headquartered in Philadelphia.

Key recent metrics: FY 2023 revenue reached approximately $2.5 billion, reflecting a 12% year-over-year increase; comparable-store sales rose 11% driven by strong demand for affordable “fun-forward” products amid persistent inflation. The chain’s expansion strategy focuses on 100-plus-square-foot stores in high-traffic, lower-rent locations, supporting a 20% increase in total store count over the past two years. Macro drivers include resilient discretionary spending among Gen Z consumers, a modest shift toward off-price retail, and modest e-commerce growth (≈5% of total sales) that complements its brick-and-mortar model.
