TJX stock holds firm after a beat and raise on August 19

TJX stock is holding near $138 after August 19 results that brought $15.18 billion in quarterly revenue, $1.22 adjusted EPS, and a full-year EPS guide of $5.15 to $5.20.

TJX Companies (US8725401090) traded at $137.65 on August 26, with a market cap of $154.08 billion, after the retailer reported second-quarter fiscal 2027 revenue of $15.18 billion and adjusted EPS of $1.22 on August 19.

The same results showed a 4% rise in consolidated comparable sales, a 50-basis-point increase in adjusted pretax profit margin to 11.9%, and a full-year adjusted EPS outlook lifted to $5.15 to $5.20.

Quarterly numbers still matter

The current setup is a straightforward one for investors: the stock is pricing in a solid beat-and-raise quarter, but the largest division, Marmaxx, posted just 1% comparable-sales growth while HomeGoods, TJX International, and TJX Canada each grew 6% to 7%.

That mix matters because the company is still expanding earnings power, yet the segment detail shows the pace is not even across the portfolio.

Consensus remains constructive

MarketBeat data put TJX at a consensus target price of $172.84 and a consensus rating of Moderate Buy, while one recent note kept a Buy rating and set a $171 target.

Against the August 26 close of $137.65, those figures leave the shares below both targets even after the post-earnings update.

Marmaxx stays central

Marmaxx, which includes TJ Maxx and Marshalls, is still the key earnings engine because it generates the largest share of sales and shapes the pace of the whole group.

Off-price retail is a volume business, and TJX's August 19 print showed that even a 1% comp at the core segment can sit beside stronger 6% to 7% growth elsewhere.

Product focus

For shoppers, TJ Maxx remains the best-known banner in the portfolio and a clear representative of the company's off-price model.

The chain's appeal is simple: branded apparel and home goods at discount prices, with inventory turns and value perception doing much of the work.

Stock level

TJX stock last traded at $137.65 on August 26, and the market cap stood at $154.08 billion on the same snapshot.

That leaves the shares well below the recent consensus targets and still tied closely to how the next quarter develops after the August 19 beat and raise.
