Five Below: Strong Q1 Comparable Sales
Here's our initial take on Five Below's (NASDAQ: FIVE) fiscal 2025 first-quarter financial report.
Five Below reported solid first-quarter results despite a complex macroeconomic backdrop. Comparable sales rose by 7.1%, driven largely by an increase in transactions, while total revenue jumped 19.5%. The company opened 55 new stores during the quarter, and those stores are performing well, according to Five Below CEO Winnie Park.
The retailer is navigating tariffs and global economic uncertainty, and so far, those potential headwinds haven't had much of an impact on Five Below's business. Operating income and adjusted earnings per share rose significantly from the first quarter of fiscal 2025, with the latter beating analyst expectations.
