Shareholders' Equity

Shareholders’ Equity

As of May 4, 2013, the Company is authorized to issue 120,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.01 par value, and 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $0.01 par value. The holders of common stock are entitled to one vote per share of common stock and are entitled to receive dividends if declared by the board of directors. The preferred stock may be issued from time to time in series as designated by the board of directors. The designations, powers, preferences, voting rights, privileges, options, conversion rights, and other special rights of the shares of each such series of preferred stock and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof shall be designated by the board of directors.

Preferred Stock

On October 14, 2010, the Company issued 89,291,773 shares of Series A 8% Convertible Preferred Stock for cash proceeds of $191.9 million, net of offering costs of $2.1 million. The shares of Series A 8% Convertible Preferred Stock were entitled to receive cumulative dividends of 8% of their original issue price of $2.17 per share per year compounded annually and payable in cash when and if declared by the Company’s board of directors; however, the Company could not pay, unless otherwise consented to by the holders of Series A 8% Convertible Preferred Stock, any dividends on common stock unless an equal amount of dividends per share (on an as converted basis) was simultaneously paid to the holders of the Series A 8% Convertible Preferred Stock. Effective immediately prior to the closing of the IPO on July 24, 2012, all outstanding shares of Series A 8% Convertible Preferred Stock were converted into 30,894,953 shares of common stock and ceased to be entitled to the payment of any dividends that accrued on such shares as of the effective time of the conversion.

In the event of any liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the Company, as defined, or deemed liquidation event, as defined, the holders of the Series A 8% Convertible Preferred Stock were entitled to receive the greater of the original issue price of $2.17 per share plus any accrued and unpaid dividends, or the amount that would have been paid if the Series A 8% Convertible Preferred Stock was converted to common stock, before any payment was made to the common shareholders. The Series A 8% Convertible Preferred Stock was presented outside of shareholders’ equity (deficit) since its redemption under certain circumstances was beyond the control of the Company’s management.

Common Stock

In March 2012, options to purchase 2,020,620 shares of common stock granted during the fiscal year ended January 29, 2011, including options to purchase 1,010,310 shares that were subject to time-based and performance-based vesting, were cancelled and an equal number of restricted shares were granted. One-third of the shares vested immediately in March 2012 and another one-third of the shares vested in March 2013. The remaining one-third will vest in March 2014. In connection with the cancellation and grant, the Company will record total compensation expense of $17.4 million, of which $5.3 million was recorded on the date of the modification and the remainder is recorded on a straight-line basis over the two-year vesting period.

On July 17, 2012, the Company amended its articles of incorporation to reflect a 0.3460-for-1 reverse stock split of

its common stock. The amendment also changed the authorized shares of the Company's common stock to 120,000,000 shares.

Concurrent with the reverse stock split, the Company adjusted (i) the conversion price of its Series A 8% Convertible Preferred

Stock, (ii) the number of shares subject to and the exercise price of its outstanding stock option awards under its equity

incentive plan and (iii) the number of shares subject to and the exercise price of its outstanding warrants to equitably reflect the

split. All common stock share and per-share data included in the financial statements and footnotes thereto, give effect to the reverse stock split and the change in authorized shares and have been adjusted retroactively for all periods presented.

On September 27, 2012, the Company’s board of directors approved the Five Below, Inc. 2012 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”), which remained subject to shareholder approval. The Company's shareholders approved the ESPP on May 30, 2013, at the Company's annual meeting of shareholders. The number of shares of common stock reserved for issuance, which is subject to other limitations, is 500,000 shares. The ESPP allows eligible employees the opportunity to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock through payroll deductions at a discount of 10% of the fair market value of such shares on the purchase date. The ESPP's effective date is retroactive to January 1, 2013 and is intended to be qualified as an “employee stock purchase plan” within the meaning of Section 423 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986.

On February 4, 2013, the Company completed its secondary public offering of 13,012,250 shares of common stock at a price of $35.65 per share.
