CEO and President Comments

Ernie Herrman, Chief Executive Officer and President of The TJX Companies, Inc., stated, “I am extremely proud of the performance of our teams again in 2023. Thanks to their excellent execution of our great business model, we delivered outstanding results on both the top and bottom lines that exceeded our expectations. We surpassed $50 billion in annual sales, a milestone for our Company. We brought our customers exciting values on great brands and fashions and a treasure-hunt shopping experience, every day. Throughout the holiday season, we shipped a fresh assortment of gift giving selections to our stores and online which clearly resonated with consumers. Comparable store sales for the Company increased 5% both for the fourth quarter and full year, well above our original plans for 2023. We saw comp sales growth at every division driven by customer transactions, which underscores our confidence in our ability to gain market share across all of our geographies. We had a very strong finish to 2023 and start the new year in a position of strength with the first quarter off to a good start. We are energized and laser focused on capitalizing on our opportunities for the year ahead and, as always, we’ll strive to beat our plans. Longer term, we are excited about the potential we see to strategically grow our business, capture additional market share, and increase the profitability of our Company.”

Q4 Fiscal 2024 Margins

For the 14-week fourth quarter of Fiscal 2024, the Company’s pretax profit margin was 11.2%, up 2.0 percentage points versus last year’s 13-week fourth quarter pretax profit margin of 9.2%. Excluding an estimated 0.3 percentage point benefit from the extra week in the fourth quarter, adjusted pretax profit margin was 10.9%, up 1.7 percentage points versus last year. This was above the Company’s plan due to a higher merchandise margin as well as expense leverage on the above-plan sales. The higher merchandise margin includes a larger-than-expected benefit from lower inventory shrink expense, lower freight costs, lower markdowns, and better markon.

Gross profit margin for the 14-week fourth quarter of Fiscal 2024 was 29.8%, a 3.7 percentage point increase versus last year’s 13-week fourth quarter gross profit margin of 26.1%. Excluding an estimated 0.3 percentage point benefit from the extra week in the fourth quarter, adjusted gross profit margin was 29.5%, up 3.4 percentage points versus last year. This year-over-year increase was driven by a significant benefit from lower freight costs and lower inventory shrink expense, strong markon, and lower markdowns, partially offset by supply chain investments.

Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) costs as a percent of sales for the 14-week fourth quarter of Fiscal 2024 were 18.9%, a 1.9 percentage point increase versus last year’s 13-week fourth quarter SG&A costs of 17.0%. This year-over-year increase was primarily due to higher incentive compensation accruals and incremental store wage and payroll costs. SG&A as a percent of sales for the fourth quarter Fiscal 2024 was not impacted by the extra week in the calendar.

Net interest income benefitted fourth quarter Fiscal 2024 pretax profit margin by 0.1 percentage point versus the prior year.

Full Year Fiscal 2024 Margins

For the 53-week Fiscal 2024 year, the Company’s pretax profit margin was 11.0%, up 1.7 percentage points versus last year’s 52-week pretax profit margin of 9.3%. Excluding an estimated 0.1 percentage point benefit from the extra week in Fiscal 2024, adjusted pretax profit margin was 10.9%. This was up 1.2 percentage points versus last year’s adjusted pretax profit margin of 9.7%, which excluded a 0.4 percentage point charge related to a write-down of the Company’s minority investment in Familia.

Gross profit margin for the 53-week Fiscal 2024 year was 30.0%, a 2.4 percentage point increase versus last year’s 52-week gross profit margin of 27.6%. Excluding an estimated 0.1 percentage point benefit from the extra week in Fiscal 2024, adjusted gross profit margin was 29.9%, up 2.3 percentage points versus last year. Lower inventory shrink expense resulted in a 0.1 percentage point benefit to full year Fiscal 2024 gross profit margin.

Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) costs as a percent of sales for the 53-week Fiscal 2024 year were 19.3%, a 1.4 percentage point increase versus last year’s 52-week SG&A costs of 17.9%. SG&A as a percent of sales for the full year Fiscal 2024 was not impacted by the extra week in the calendar.

Net interest income benefitted full year Fiscal 2024 pretax profit margin by 0.3 percentage points versus the prior year.

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 one percentage point positive impact on the Company’s net sales growth in the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2024 versus the prior year. The overall net impact of foreign currency exchange rates had a $.01 negative impact on fourth quarter Fiscal 2024 diluted earnings per share.

The movement in foreign currency exchange rates had a neutral impact on the Company’s net sales growth in Fiscal 2024 versus the prior year. The overall net impact of foreign currency exchange rates was neutral on full year Fiscal 2024 diluted earnings per share.

A table detailing the impact of foreign currency on TJX’s net sales, pretax earnings, and 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 February 3, 2024 were $6.0 billion, compared to $5.8 billion at the end of Fiscal 2023. Consolidated inventories on a per-store basis as of February 3, 2024, including distribution centers, but excluding inventory in transit, the Company’s e-commerce sites, and Sierra stores, were up 1% on both a reported and constant currency basis. The constant currency basis reflects inventory adjusted for the impact of foreign currency exchange rates, if any, as described above. The Company is well-positioned to take advantage of the outstanding availability of quality, branded merchandise in the marketplace and flow fresh goods to its stores and online this spring.

Cash and Shareholder Distributions

For the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2024, the Company generated $2.8 billion of operating cash flow. For the full year Fiscal 2024, the Company generated $6.1 billion of operating cash flow and ended the year with $5.6 billion of cash.

During the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2024, the Company returned $1.2 billion to shareholders. The Company repurchased a total of $797 million of TJX stock, retiring 8.7 million shares, and paid $379 million in shareholder dividends during the quarter. In Fiscal 2024, the Company returned a total of $4.0 billion to shareholders, which includes repurchasing a total of $2.5 billion of TJX stock, retiring 29.0 million shares, and paying $1.5 billion in shareholder dividends.

With the Company’s continued strong cash flow, TJX announced today that it intends to increase the regular quarterly dividend on its common stock expected to be declared in April 2024 and payable in June 2024 to $.375 per share, subject to the approval of the Company’s Board of Directors. This would represent a 13% increase over the current per share dividend.

The Company is also announcing today its plan to repurchase approximately $2.0 to $2.5 billion of TJX stock during the fiscal year ending February 1, 2025. With $1.0 billion remaining at Fiscal 2024 year end under the Company’s existing stock repurchase program, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a new stock repurchase program that authorizes the repurchase of up to an additional $2.5 billion of TJX common stock from time to time. The new authorization represents approximately 2.2% of the Company’s outstanding shares at current prices. The new stock repurchase program marks the 24th program approved by the Board since 1997. Under the Company’s repurchase programs, share repurchases may be made from time to time in market or private transactions and may include derivative transactions. The repurchase program announced today has no time limit and may be suspended or discontinued at any time. The Company may adjust the amount purchased under this program 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.

First Quarter and Full Year Fiscal 2025 Outlook

For the first 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 10.5% to 10.6%, and diluted earnings per share to be in the range of $.84 to $.86.

For full year 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 10.9% to 11.0%, and diluted earnings per share to be in the range of $3.94 to $4.02.

Comparable Store Sales

For Fiscal 2023 and 2024, the Company returned to its historical definition of comparable store sales. While stores in the U.S. were open for all of Fiscal 2022, a significant number of stores in TJX Canada and TJX International (Europe and Australia) experienced COVID-related temporary store closures and government-mandated shopping restrictions during Fiscal 2022. Therefore, in Fiscal 2023, the Company could not measure year-over-year comparable store sales with Fiscal 2022 in these geographies in a meaningful way. As a result, the comparable stores included in the Fiscal 2023 measure consisted of U.S. stores only, which, for clarity, the Company referred to as U.S. comparable store sales and were calculated against sales for the comparable periods in Fiscal 2022. For Fiscal 2022, due to the temporary closing of stores as a result of the COVID-19 global pandemic, the Company reported open-only comparable store sales. This measure reported the sales increase or decrease of stores initially classified as comp stores at the beginning of Fiscal 2021 for the days they were open in Fiscal 2022 against sales of those stores for the same days in Fiscal 2020. Comparable store sales for a category such as home or apparel include sales from merchandise within such category combined across all divisions at the stores that fall within the Company’s definition of comparable stores for such period.

Non-GAAP Financial Information

The Company has used non-GAAP financial measures in this press release. Non-GAAP financial measures refer to financial information adjusted to exclude or include, as applicable, from financial measures prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP), items identified in this press release. Non-GAAP financial measures used in this press release include sales growth on a constant currency basis, inventory on a constant currency basis, adjusted pretax profit margin, adjusted gross profit margin, and adjusted diluted earnings per share. The Company believes that the presentation of adjusted financial measures is useful to investors as it provides additional information on comparisons between periods by excluding certain items that affect overall comparability. The Company uses these non-GAAP financial measures for business planning purposes, to consider underlying trends of its business, and in measuring its performance relative to others in the market, 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

Notes to Consolidated Condensed Statements

  1. During the fourth quarter ended February 3, 2024, the Company returned $1.2 billion to shareholders. The Company repurchased and retired 8.7 million shares of its common stock at a cost of $797 million and paid $379 million in shareholder dividends. During the fifty-three weeks ended February 3, 2024, the Company returned $4 billion to shareholders. The Company repurchased and retired 29 million shares of its common stock at a cost of $2.5 billion and paid $1.5 billion in shareholder dividends. In February 2024, the Company announced that the Board of Directors had approved a new stock repurchase program that authorizes the repurchase of up to an additional $2.5 billion of TJX common stock from time to time, with $1.0 billion still remaining as of February 3, 2024 under the existing stock repurchase program.



  2. During Fiscal 2023, the Company announced and completed the divestiture of its minority investment in Familia. As a result, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $218 million in the first quarter of Fiscal 2023 representing the entire carrying value of the investment. Subsequently, in the third quarter of Fiscal 2023 when the Company completed the divestiture of this investment, the Company realized a $54 million tax benefit, or $0.05 positive impact to diluted earnings per share. The combination of these resulted in a $0.14 negative impact to diluted earnings per share for the full year Fiscal 2023.
