Published on 10/06/2026 at 17:04 | Editorial responsibility: Rafael Müller, Editor-in-Chief AD HOC NEWS
TJX Companies stock was trading at USD 136.63 on the NYSE on October 6, 2026 at 11:03 a.m. ET, up 1.65 percent from the prior close. The move follows a stronger fiscal second quarter and a higher full-year earnings outlook reported by Zacks on September 16, 2026.
Guidance rises after Q2 beat
Adjusted earnings for fiscal Q2 2027 reached USD 1.22 per share, above the USD 1.18 consensus cited by Zacks. The comparison is concrete: TJX exceeded the estimate by USD 0.04, while net sales increased 5 percent year over year to USD 15.18 billion.
Consolidated comparable sales advanced 4 percent in the quarter ended August 1, 2026. Adjusted gross margin expanded 70 basis points to 31.4 percent, and adjusted pretax margin reached 11.9 percent, according to Zacks.
Full-year targets move higher
TJX raised fiscal 2027 adjusted EPS guidance to USD 5.15-5.20 from USD 5.08-5.15. The company also set a fiscal 2027 adjusted pretax margin outlook of 12.0-12.1 percent, compared with the previous 11.9-12.0 percent range.
The operating picture is uneven across the banners. Marmaxx comparable sales rose 1 percent, while HomeGoods increased 7 percent, TJX Canada gained 6 percent and TJX International advanced 7 percent in fiscal Q2 2027, according to Nasdaq. Marmaxx execution is therefore the clearest operating checkpoint for the upgraded forecast.
Analysts see further upside
The consensus view remains Moderate Buy, based on 22 analysts, with an average price target of USD 171.63, a low of USD 140.00 and a high of USD 198.00, according to MarketBeat. The target range places valuation expectations well above the current trading level, while the latest guidance leaves execution and margin delivery as the central test.
