Should You Buy the Post-Earnings Pop in TJ Maxx Stock?
The retail world has been a rollercoaster this year. Investors are jittery as mixed earnings reports from some big-box names fuel doubts about whether the holiday shopping season can deliver its usual magic. Rising import tariffs, rising inflation, and cautious consumers have cast a shadow over the sector, leaving many to wonder if shoppers will tighten their belts. Amid this uncertainty, TJX Companies (TJX), the parent of TJ Maxx, Marshalls, and HomeGoods, has quietly bucked the trend. Its Q2 earnings, released on Wednesday, did not just beat expectations on revenue and profit, but the management also raised full-year guidance and struck a confident tone about the months ahead. With transactions up across all divisions and shoppers hunting value amid inflation, TJX's off-price model proves resilient, giving it a nimbleness most retailers lack. More News from Barchart Warren Buffett Says Don't Invest in Berkshire Hathaway Unless You 'Understand Our Operations, Attitudes and Expectations' Should You Buy the Pullback in Palantir Stock Today? Is Tilray Stock a Buy, Sell, or Hold for August 2025? Markets move fast. Keep up by reading our FREE midday Barchart Brief newsletter for exclusive charts, analysis, and headlines. The stock surged to an all-time high following the earnings beat, reflecting investor optimism. With a resilient business model and upbeat management outlook heading into the fall and holiday season, should investors jump in now, or sit tight and watch how the broader retail landscape unfolds? About TJX Stock The TJX Companies, a Fortune 100 powerhouse, has mastered the art of off-price retailing, becoming the go-to destination for value hunters worldwide. Incorporated in 1962, TJX delivers a constantly evolving assortment of fashionable, high-quality merchandise - typically priced 20% to 60% below regular retail - driven by its mission to offer great brands at unbeatable value. Operating over 5,100 stores across nine countries, TJX owns beloved banners like T.J. Maxx, Marshalls, HomeGoods, Homesense, Sierra, Winners, and TK Maxx. This Framingham, Massachusetts-based retailer's thriving e-commerce platforms mirror the treasure-hunt experience, while its commitment to communities, associates, and sustainability drives its broader purpose. TJX has been on a relentless climb, writing one of retail's strongest growth stories. Showcasing its long-term strength, the stock has skyrocketed more than 2,500% over the past two decades, with gains of 120% in just three years, 55% in two, and 14% over the past 52 weeks. Short-term, the momentum hasn't slowed, up 13.8% on a year-to-date (YTD) basis and 10% in the past month alone. After its stellar Q2 earnings, TJX surged nearly 3% on Wednesday, briefly touching an all-time high of $145.58 before trimming gains a hair on Thursday. Plus, with the 14-day RSI above 73 signaling overbought conditions, TJX trades at $137.51, but strong support at $135.92 acts as a price floor, helping sustain the stock's bullish uptrend. TJX stock is priced at just 29.74 times forward earnings and 2.64 times sales, sitting below its own historical median. For a retail giant hitting record highs, that's rare air. With surging demand, nimble merchandising, and a business model built for value-hungry shoppers, TJX keeps thriving while much of retail stumbles. And TJX is not just winning on valuation but rewarding patience, too. With 35 consecutive years of dividend payments and 28 years of hikes, the retailer is all set to pay a $0.425 per share quarterly dividend next month. That's an annualized $1.70 per share payout, giving a 1.26% forward yield – beating the S&P 500 SPDR's (SPY) 1.12%. A 28.3% five-year growth rate and a lean 36.5% payout ratio hint there's more fuel in the tank. TJX's Q2 Numbers Beat Projections Retail has been a mixed bag this year, with big names flashing cautious signals. But TJX just delivered a blockbuster fiscal Q2 earnings report on Aug. 20, giving Wall Street something to cheer about. The off-price retail giant's net sales rose 7% year-over-year (YoY) to $14.4 billion, with comparable sales rising 4%, beating the company's plan. Meanwhile, EPS jumped 15% annually to $1.10, topping expectations and underscoring the power of TJX's treasure-hunt shopping experience. In a retail landscape riddled with uncertainty, TJX continues to thrive by leaning into what it does best – offering big brands and fresh fashions at unbeatable prices. Customer transactions rose across every division, from MarMaxx and HomeGoods to its international business. The company credited its strong merchandising teams for consistently delivering value-driven assortments that keep shoppers coming back for more. Cash flows were equally robust in Q2, with TJX generating $1.8 billion in operating cash and ending Q2 with $4.6 billion in cash on hand. And it didn't just sit on that pile – TJX returned $1 billion to shareholders, split between stock buybacks of $515 million and dividends worth $474 million – signaling confidence in its long-term growth story. Management struck an upbeat tone, raising full-year guidance for pretax margins and EPS. TJX now forecasts 3% comp sales growth, pretax margins between 11.4% and 11.5%, and EPS between $4.52 and $4.57, marking a healthy 6% to 7% lift from last year. For fiscal Q3, the management expects comparable sales growth between 2% and 3% and EPS between $1.17 and $1.19, up 3% to 4% YoY. While tariffs and foreign exchange pressures remain hurdles, TJX's flexible off-price model gives it a competitive edge. By scooping up branded merchandise after it's imported and rapidly rotating assortments, the retailer sidesteps much of the cost burden weighing down rivals. With consumers still seeking value amid inflation, TJX is well-positioned to keep capturing market share - both in the U.S. and abroad. After this standout quarter, management sees plenty of runway ahead. With momentum building into the critical fall and holiday season, TJX looks ready to ride the wave of shifting consumer habits and cement its dominance in off-price retail. Analysts monitoring the company expect its profit to be $1.21 per share in Q3 fiscal 2026, up 6.1% YoY, with full-year EPS projected to surge by 4.9% annually to $4.47. Looking further ahead, fiscal 2027 EPS is projected to be $4.93, representing a 10.3% annual growth. What Do Analysts Expect for TJX Stock? Analysts are doubling down on TJX after a stellar Q2. Jefferies raised its price target to $160 from $155 with a 'Buy' rating, citing TJX's edge from the 'secular migration toward off-price retail' and potential market share gains from traditional players. TJX's Q2 results impressed with its same-store sales growth, July leading comparable sales, and margins and EPS exceeding Street estimates. Jefferies also sees Q3 guidance as conservative, noting management's optimism about leveraging a strong buying environment and driving continued traffic growth. TD Cowen followed suit, boosting its target to $151 from $145 with a 'Buy,' based on its fiscal 2027 EPS forecast of $5.04, highlighting home goods strength and international expansion as key growth drivers. Wall Street is upbeat on the retail stock. The consensus rating on TJX remains at 'Strong Buy,' from the 21 analysts covering the stock. Among them, 17 recommend a 'Strong Buy,' one advises a 'Moderate Buy,' while the remaining three analysts are playing it safe, advising a 'Hold' rating. Plus, with a mean price target of $143.84, TJX has modest upside potential of 4.6% from current price levels, while $164 Street-high target indicates the stock could surge as much as 19.3%.
