CEO and President Comments
Ernie Herrman, Chief Executive Officer and President of The TJX Companies, Inc., stated, “I am extremely pleased with our second quarter performance. Our comparable store sales increase of 4%, pretax profit margin, and earnings per share all exceeded our plans. Our teams sharply executed on our mission to deliver great value to consumers every day. Our overall comp sales growth was entirely driven by customer transactions, which increased at every division. The performance of Marmaxx, our largest division, was outstanding, with a comp sales increase of 5%. With our strong second quarter results, we are raising our full-year guidance for both pretax profit margin and earnings per share. The third quarter is off to a strong start. We see excellent buying opportunities in the marketplace and are strongly positioned to ship fresh and compelling merchandise to our stores and online throughout the fall and holiday selling seasons. We marked a milestone for our Company in the second quarter by opening our 5,000th store! Longer term, we are excited about our potential to capture additional market share in all of our geographies and to continue our global growth, while delivering great value to more consumers around the world and driving the profitability of TJX.”

Margins
For the second quarter of Fiscal 2025, the Company’s pretax profit margin was 10.9%, up 0.5 percentage points versus last year’s second quarter pretax profit margin of 10.4%.
The Company’s second quarter Fiscal 2025 pretax profit margin was above the high-end of its plan by 0.4 percentage points primarily due to a benefit from lower freight costs and stronger sales, partially offset by higher incentive compensation accruals and a contribution to the TJX Foundation.
Gross profit margin for the second quarter of Fiscal 2025 was 30.4%, a 0.2 percentage point increase versus the second quarter of Fiscal 2024. Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) costs as a percent of sales for the second quarter of Fiscal 2025 were 19.8%, a 0.3 percentage point decrease versus the second quarter of Fiscal 2024.
Impact of Foreign Currency Exchange Rates
Changes in foreign currency exchange rates affect the translation of sales and earnings of the Company’s international businesses into U.S. dollars for financial reporting purposes. In addition, ordinary course, inventory-related hedging instruments are marked to market at the end of each quarter. Changes in currency exchange rates can have a material effect on the magnitude of these translations and adjustments when there is significant volatility in currency exchange rates. Given the global operations of the Company, to facilitate comparability, the Company has provided sales growth and inventory on a constant currency basis, which assumes a constant exchange rate between periods for translation based on the rate in effect for the prior period.
The movement in foreign currency exchange rates had a neutral impact on the Company’s net sales growth in the second quarter and the first half of Fiscal 2025 versus the prior year. The overall net impact of foreign currency exchange rates was neutral for the Company’s second quarter and first half Fiscal 2025 diluted earnings per share.
A table detailing the impact of foreign currency on TJX’s net sales and pretax margins, as well as those of its international businesses, can be found in the Investors section of TJX.com.
The foreign currency exchange rate impact to diluted earnings per share does not include the impact currency exchange rates have on various transactions, which the Company refers to as “transactional foreign exchange.”
Inventory
Total inventories as of August 3, 2024 were $6.5 billion, compared to $6.6 billion at the end of the second quarter of Fiscal 2024. Consolidated inventories on a per-store basis as of August 3, 2024, including distribution centers, but excluding inventory in transit, the Company’s e-commerce sites, and Sierra stores, were down 2% on both a reported and constant currency basis versus last year. Inventory on a constant currency basis reflects inventory adjusted for the impact of foreign currency exchange rates, if any, as described above. The Company is pleased with its inventory levels and is confident it is well-positioned to take advantage of the excellent availability of quality, branded merchandise in the marketplace and flow exciting goods to its stores and online throughout the fall and holiday season.
Cash and Shareholder Distributions
For the second quarter of Fiscal 2025, the Company generated $1.6 billion of operating cash flow and ended the quarter with $5.3 billion of cash.
During the second quarter of Fiscal 2025, the Company returned a total of $982 million to shareholders. The Company repurchased $559 million of TJX stock, retiring 5.1 million shares, and paid $423 million in shareholder dividends during the quarter.
During the first half of Fiscal 2025, the Company returned a total of $1.9 billion to shareholders. The Company repurchased a total of $1.1 billion of TJX stock, retiring 10.4 million shares, and paid $800 million in shareholder dividends.
The Company continues to expect to repurchase approximately $2.0 to $2.5 billion of TJX stock during the fiscal year ending February 1, 2025. The Company may adjust the amount purchased under this plan up or down depending on various factors. The Company remains committed to returning cash to its shareholders while continuing to invest in the business to support the near- and long-term growth of TJX.
Third Quarter and Full Year Fiscal 2025 Outlook
For the third quarter of Fiscal 2025, the Company is planning consolidated comparable store sales to be up 2% to 3%, pretax profit margin to be in the range of 11.8% to 11.9%, and diluted earnings per share to be in the range of $1.06 to $1.08.
For the full year Fiscal 2025, the Company is now planning consolidated comparable store sales to be up approximately 3%. The Company is increasing its outlook for pretax profit margin to be approximately 11.2% and increasing its diluted earnings per share outlook to be in the range of $4.09 to $4.13. As a reminder, last year’s full year and fourth quarter pretax profit margin and earnings per share benefited from an extra week in the Company’s fiscal calendar.
Investment in Brands for Less
The Company announced today that it has signed a definitive agreement to make an investment of approximately $360 million, subject to customary working capital adjustments, for a 35% ownership stake in privately held Brands for Less (BFL). BFL is based in Dubai and is the region’s only major off-price branded apparel, toys, and home fashions retailer. The transaction is expected to close later this fiscal year, and TJX’s investment represents a non-controlling, minority position in BFL. BFL currently operates over 100 stores, primarily in the UAE and Saudi Arabia, as well as an e-commerce business. As TJX seeks to continue its global growth, this transaction gives the Company an opportunity to invest in an established, off-price retailer with significant growth potential. The Company’s ownership in BFL is expected to be slightly accretive to earnings per share beginning in Fiscal 2026. The Company will record this investment using the equity method of accounting from the date of the investment. Further, TJX will report its share of BFL’s financial results on a one quarter delay. BofA Securities acted as financial advisor and Ropes & Gray LLP provided legal counsel to the Company in connection with this transaction.
Stores by Concept
During the fiscal quarter ended August 3, 2024, the Company increased its store count by 29 stores overall to a total of 5,001 stores and increased square footage by 0.5% versus the prior quarter.

Non-GAAP Financial Information
The Company reports its financial results in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. (GAAP). However, management believes that certain non-GAAP financial measures may provide users of this financial information additional meaningful comparisons between current results and results in prior operating periods and between results in prior periods and expectations for future periods. Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures can provide additional meaningful reflection of underlying trends of the business because they provide a comparison of historical information that excludes certain items that affect overall comparability. Non-GAAP financial measures used in this press release include sales growth on a constant currency basis and inventory on a constant currency basis. The Company uses these non-GAAP financial measures in making financial, operating and planning decisions and in evaluating the Company’s performance, including relative to others in the market. Management also uses these non-GAAP measures to consider underlying trends of the Company’s business and believes presenting these measures also provides information to investors and others for understanding and evaluating trends in the Company’s operating results or measuring performance in the same manner as the Company’s management. Non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, and not as an alternative for, the Company’s reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP. The use of these non-GAAP financial measures may differ from similar measures reported by other companies and may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures.
Important Information at Website
Archived versions of the Company’s conference calls are available in the Investors section of TJX.com after they are no longer available by telephone, as are reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP financial measures and other financial information. The Company routinely posts information that may be important to investors in the Investors section at TJX.com. The Company encourages investors to consult that section of its website regularly.
