FIVE DEADLINE REMINDER: Five Below, Inc. Investors who Lost Money are Reminded to Contact BFA Law before Upcoming Securities Litigation Deadline (Nasdaq:FIVE)
NEW YORK, Sept. 07, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Leading securities law firm Bleichmar Fonti & Auld LLP announces that a lawsuit has been filed against Five Below, Inc. FIVE and certain of the Company’s senior executives.
If you invested in Five Below, you are encouraged to obtain additional information by visiting https://www.bfalaw.com/cases-investigations/five-below-inc.
Investors have until September 30, 2024 to ask the Court to be appointed to lead the case. The complaint asserts claims under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 on behalf of investors in Five Below securities. The case is pending in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania and is captioned Himes v. Five Below, Inc., No. 2:24-cv-3638.
What is the Lawsuit About?
The complaint alleges that Five Below operates specialty discount stores, and prices most of its products at $5 or less. The complaint further alleges that during the relevant period, the company misrepresented its accelerating store traffic, merchandising opportunities and store expansions that underpinned its long-term growth. In truth, Five Below had allegedly experienced macroeconomic pressures that dented its store traffic and interfered with the successful execution of the company’s business.
On June 5, 2024, Five Below is alleged to have revealed that macroeconomic pressures caused lower income customers to reduce their spending, leading to disappointing financial results for the company’s first quarter of 2024. Still, Five Below assured investors that “chasing trends has always been a strength of ours, and we will continue to quickly identify and capitalize on trends.” Despite the assurance, the news caused the price of Five Below stock to decline about 10%, from $132.79 per share on June 5, 2024 to $118.72 per share on June 6, 2024.
After the market closed on July 16, 2024, Five Below announced that CEO Joel Anderson resigned as President and CEO, and as a member of the Board of Directors, effective immediately. At the same time, the company reported that the quarter-to-date results for its second quarter of fiscal 2024 showed that comparable sales decreased 5% over the prior year. As a result, Five Below also announced that sales for the full quarter would be in the range of $820 million – $860 million and that comparable sales would decline approximately 6%-7%. This news caused a significant 25% decline in the price of Five Below stock, from $102.07 per share on July 16, 2024 to $76.50 per share on July 17, 2024.

The governments of Canada and Quebec and the City of Montréal officially open 26 new bachelor apartments for vulnerable women and at risk of homelessness
MONTRÉAL, Sept. 6, 2024 /CNW/ – The Government of Canada, the Government of Quebec, the City of Montréal, the Société d’habitation et de développement de Montréal (SHDM) and the non-profit organization Chez Doris are proud to officially open Résidence Marcelle and Jean Coutu, a new 26-unit bachelor apartment building for vulnerable women and at risk of homelessness.
For the past year, the new apartments on De Champlain Street in the borough of Ville-Marie have been welcoming vulnerable women who require supervision, but are independent enough to live in a community setting. This safe, modern living environment is adapted to the needs of its tenants and has a day staff of social workers. With a courtyard and a separate entrance for each apartment, this building will help female residents become more independent while offering social support as well as a common room for getting together.
This $7.2 million project was made possible thanks to 5.1 million from direct funding of SHDM and $800,000 in funding from the Government of Canada through the Affordable Housing Fund. In addition, through assistance from the Major Residential Renovation Program, the City of Montréal contributed an additional $1.17 million, of which $585,000 came from the Government of Quebec’s Programme visant le financement de programmes municipaux d’habitation de la Ville de Montréal. In fact, the Government of Quebec is also allocating funding so that rent supplements can be allocated to residents so that they will spend no more than 25% of their income on rent. The Government of Quebec is also contributing to the funding of psychosocial services for women, with an annual envelope of $52,938. The SHDM retains ownership of the building. The non-profit organization Chez Doris will manage it and provide psychosocial supervision and support to the women who live there.
Quotes
“The federal government will continue to work hard toward ensuring that everyone in Quebec and across Canada has a safe and stable place to call home. We’re quickly providing new affordable housing to those who need it most across the country, thanks to the Affordable Housing Fund and collaboration from all levels of government.”
The Honourable Sean Fraser, Minister of Housing, Infrastructure and Communities
“Financial assistance from our government was not only used to build the apartments, but also to ensure they are affordable for their tenants. This new building, which is the result of collective work and our constant efforts in the area of housing, will greatly improve the quality of life of residents.”
France-Élaine Duranceau, Quebec Minister Responsible for Housing
“Women experiencing homelessness face particularly difficult realities and need resources adapted to their needs. The Résidence Marcelle and Jean Coutu is more than a roof over their heads; it’s a safe space where they can rebuild their lives, feel supported, and regain their independence. I would like to thank the Chez Doris organization for once again raising its hand to help them. Together, we must continue to develop solutions that protect and value our most vulnerable women.”
Lionel Carmant, Quebec Minister Responsible for Social Services
“The housing crisis is a complex issue that requires collaboration from all levels of government. I’m delighted that, thanks to this joint investment by the governments of Canada and Quebec and the City of Montréal, we have added 26 bachelor apartments for women facing housing insecurity or who are at risk of homelessness here in Laurier–Sainte-Marie. This demonstrates our shared commitment to supporting those who need it most.”
The Honourable Steven Guilbeault, Minister of Environment and Climate Change and Member of Parliament for Laurier–Sainte-Marie
“Our administration views housing as an essential part of a sustainable solution to the housing crisis and to supporting the vulnerable among us. Résidence Marcelle and Jean Coutu will provide a home for 26 women at risk of homelessness. Thanks to the work of our partner Chez Doris and the SHDM’s expertise and significant investments, 26 people have a roof over their heads and are getting the services they need. These complex issues call for tailored support. We welcome the participation of all government and community partners, which made this project possible. This initiative is vital to meeting the growing needs arising from the vulnerability crisis.”
Benoit Dorais, Executive committee vice-chair of Montréal and responsible for housing, real estate strategy, property valuation and legal affairs
“This residence is a great example of SHDM teams developing a real estate project that makes a real difference for vulnerable populations in Montréal. We invested more than $5 million from our own funds in this 26-unit building. It’s the latest of 168 housing units for vulnerable people that we have built in the borough of Ville-Marie over the past few months. I would like to thank all our partners, both public and private, as well as Chez Doris, who helped get this project off the ground. It shows that by working together and joining forces, we can find solutions to provide sustainable housing for people facing housing insecurity.”
Sophie Rousseau-Loiselle, Executive Director, SHDM
“We are extremely proud to officially open Résidence Marcelle and Jean Coutu. The addition of these 26 bachelor apartments to Chez Doris’s services makes it a major contributor to overall support for the homeless in Montréal. In addition to living in safe new housing, the 26 women residents receive support to help improve their lifestyle, their independence and, above all, their self-esteem. This housing is both an opportunity and a caring, reassuring community for them. It helps them avoid or get off the streets. We also applaud the support of all our partners, without whom this project would not have happened, including the SHDM and the Fondation Marcelle and Jean Coutu.”

Gov. Newsom's Total Ban On Hemp THC Could Crush California's Billion-Dollar Industry, Say Stakeholders (UPDATED)
Editor’s note: This story has been updated to include reactions from California hemp industry stakeholders.
California Governor Gavin Newsom made a sudden move on Friday, proposing emergency regulations that would completely ban THC, the intoxicating compound found in cannabis, from all hemp products in the state.
The proposed regulations, released by the California Department of Public Health, would require that all industrial hemp food, beverage and dietary supplements produced for human consumption would need to be free of THC and other cannabinoids, reported the Hill.
Hemp products, which are essentially unregulated, can be easily bought online or at places like gas stations or convenience stores throughout the state. Newsom said in a statement that the emergency rules were necessary to protect children.
“We will not sit on our hands as drug peddlers target our children with dangerous and unregulated hemp products containing THC at our retail stores. We’re taking action to close loopholes and increase enforcement to prevent children from accessing these dangerous hemp and cannabis products,” Newsom said.
In addition to requiring that all hemp products in California have “no detectable amount of total THC,” the governor and health officials want customers be over 21 to purchase the products. The rules still need the approval of the California Office of Administrative Law before they go into effect, according to the outlet.
Industry Stakeholders Quick To Respond
“Today’s ’emergency action’ by Governor Newsom is a betrayal of California hemp farmers, small businesses, and adult consumers,” the Hemp Roudtable told Benzinga. “After having supported AB 45, which created a sound regulatory framework for the manufacture and sale of hemp products, Newsom’s Administration fell on the job and failed to take any steps to enforce it.”
The Roundtable took the governor to task for not establishing policies to keep intoxicating products away from children rather than punishing the entire industry. “And in the middle of massive California budget deficits, he is unnecessarily throwing away nearly a quarter billion dollars in tax revenue from legitimate small businesses.”
The Hemp Roundtable vowed to explore all legal options in the coming days “with California hemp farmers and businesses that comprise the multi-billion-dollar industry that this action would destroy.”
Case Mandel, CEO of Cannadips, also spoke out. “This will destroy our business,” Mandel told Benzinga. He explained that even though most Cannadips’ products are THC-free, they come in packages of 15 servings, which would make them illegal under the new rules, which require packages be limited to just five servings.
“This will also attack the full-spectrum CBD industry that has provided high-quality products that people rely on in the state of California,” Mandel said. “We can understand passing laws that affect what can be sold in CA. What we don’t understand is why they affect what can be manufactured and sold legally nationwide. We ask that Gavin Newsom wises up and looks for legislation that actually represents his objectives, not private interests.”

Palantir, Dell Among New S&P 500 Members as Index Rebalances
(Bloomberg) — Palantir Technologies Inc. (PLTR), Dell Technologies Inc (DELL). and Erie Indemnity Co. (ERIE) are set to join the S&P 500 as part of its latest quarterly weighting change.
Most Read from Bloomberg
The companies will replace American Airlines Group Inc., Etsy Inc. and Bio-Rad Laboratories Inc., according to a press release from S&P Dow Jones Indices Friday. The changes are set to go into effect prior to the open of trading on Sept. 23.
The additions of Palantir and Dell reflect how technology companies, and artificial intelligence-related names in particular, are reshaping the market. Palantir, the data-analysis software company co-founded by billionaire tech investor Peter Thiel, has grown from serving the US intelligence community to working with dozens of government agencies, and more recently expanding its commercial business.
Shares of the Denver-based company have risen over 75% this year as investors bet the software and surveillance firm will benefit from growing demand for its AI tools. Shares jumped as much as 8.4% in after-hours trading Friday.
Dell, the Round Rock, Texas-based company best know for personal computers and monitors, reported better-than-expected revenue last week as a result of an increase in sales of servers built for handling AI workloads.
Shares of the hardware giant jumped as much as 8.7% after the bell, while insurance company Erie Indemnity rose as much as 5.5%.
Companies must have a market capitalization of at least $18 billion and meet profitability, liquidity and share-float standards to qualify for the S&P 500, per August’s methodology.
Meanwhile, the removal of American Airlines from the US equity benchmark underscores the challenges the industry has faced of late, including delayed deliveries of planes and rising labor costs. The air carrier slashed its profit outlook in July after expectations for domestic demand proved too rosy. Its shares dropped 0.8% Friday post-market, adding to a 21% year-to-date decline.
Inclusion in the US equity benchmark can elevate a company’s profile and is becoming more important as passive investment funds grow. Expulsion from the benchmark can weigh on stock prices, as index funds sell shares to realign with the S&P 500’s new composition.
From June: KKR, CrowdStrike and GoDaddy to Join S&P 500 as Index Rebalances

Big Lots prepares bankruptcy filing with plans to sell stores, Bloomberg News reports
(Reuters) – Discount home goods retailer Big Lots is preparing to file for bankruptcy as early as this Sunday and plans to sell its chain of stores through a court-supervised process, Bloomberg News reported on Friday, citing people familiar with the situation.
The company will remain in operation under Chapter 11 protection, the report said, and is currently in the process of securing a stalking horse bid, which means that the bid could be outdone if better offers emerge.
Earlier in the day, the retailer announced the postponement of its second-quarter earnings release, which had been scheduled for Sept. 6. The company now expects to report results on Sept. 12.
The company has been collaborating with advisers from AlixPartners and Guggenheim Partners on the bankruptcy and sale process, according to the report.
Big Lots, a retailer operating around 1,400 stores and employing over 30,000 workers, has been grappling with declining sales over the past few quarters, putting pressure on its balance sheet.
Its stock has plunged more than 90% in the past year and dropped more than 22% in extended trading on Friday.
Last week, Bloomberg reported that Big Lots was mulling a potential bankruptcy filing and may seek court protection within the coming weeks.
The company did not immediately respond to a Reuters’ request for comment.
