 &lt;i&gt;Share-Based Compensation:&lt;/i&gt; TJX accounts for share-based
 compensation by estimating the fair value of each award on the date
 of grant. TJX uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model for stock
 options awarded and uses the market price on the grant date for
 performance-based restricted stock awards. Total share-based
 compensation expense was $25.0 million for the quarter ended
 April&amp;#xA0;30, 2016 and $21.2 million for the quarter ended
 May&amp;#xA0;2, 2015. These amounts include stock option expense as
 well as restricted and deferred stock amortization. There were
 options to purchase 2.3&amp;#xA0;million shares of common stock
 exercised during the quarter ended April&amp;#xA0;30, 2016. There were
 options outstanding to purchase 26.3&amp;#xA0;million shares of common
 stock as of April&amp;#xA0;30, 2016. As of April&amp;#xA0;30, 2016, there
 was $147.5 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related
 to nonvested share-based compensation arrangements granted under
 TJX&amp;#x2019;s stock incentive plan.&lt;/p&gt;

 At April&amp;#xA0;30, 2016, TJX had outstanding $500 million aggregate
 principal amount of 2.50% ten-year notes due May 2023 and $375
 million aggregate principal amount of 6.95% ten-year notes due
 April 2019. TJX entered into rate-lock agreements to hedge the
 underlying treasury rate of $250 million of the 2.50% notes and all
 of the 6.95% notes. The costs of these agreements are being
 amortized to interest expense over the term of the respective
 notes, resulting in an effective fixed interest rate of 2.57% for
 the 2.50% notes and 7.00% for the 6.95% notes.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt"&gt;
 At April&amp;#xA0;30, 2016, TJX also had outstanding $750 million
 aggregate principal amount of 2.75% seven-year notes, due June
 2021. TJX entered into rate-lock agreements to hedge the underlying
 treasury rate of all of the 2.75% notes prior to their issuance.
 The agreements were accounted for as cash flow hedges and the
 pre-tax realized loss of $7.9 million was recorded as a component
 of other comprehensive income and is being amortized to interest
 expense over the term of the notes, resulting in an effective fixed
 interest rate of 2.91%.&lt;/p&gt;

 had two $500 million revolving credit facilities, one which was
 scheduled to mature in May 2016 and one which was scheduled to
 mature in June 2017. In March 2016, the $500 million revolving
 credit facility scheduled to mature in May 2016 was replaced with a
 new five-year $500 million revolving credit facility maturing in
 March 2021 and the $500 million revolving credit facility scheduled
 to mature in June 2017 was replaced with a new four-year $500
 million revolving credit facility maturing in March 2020. The terms
 and covenants under the new revolving credit facilities are similar
 to those in the terminated facilities and require quarterly
 payments of 6.0 basis points per annum on the committed amounts for
 both agreements. This rate is based on the credit ratings of
 TJX&amp;#x2019;s long-term debt and would vary with specified changes in
 the credit ratings. These agreements had no compensating balance
 requirements and had various covenants. Each of these facilities
 required TJX to maintain a ratio of funded debt and four-times
 consolidated rentals to consolidated earnings before interest,
 taxes, depreciation and amortization, and consolidated rentals
 (&amp;#x201C;EBITDAR&amp;#x201D;) of not more than 2.75 to 1.00 on a rolling
 four-quarter basis. TJX was in compliance with all covenants
 related to its credit facilities at April&amp;#xA0;30,
 2016,&amp;#xA0;January&amp;#xA0;30, 2016 and May&amp;#xA0;2, 2015.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt"&gt;
 As of April&amp;#xA0;30, 2016,&amp;#xA0;January&amp;#xA0;30, 2016 and
 May&amp;#xA0;2, 2015, and during the quarters and year then ended,
 there were no amounts outstanding under any of these
 facilities.&lt;/p&gt;

 As of April&amp;#xA0;30, 2016,&amp;#xA0;January&amp;#xA0;30, 2016 and
 May&amp;#xA0;2, 2015, TJX Canada had two uncommitted credit lines, a
 C$10 million facility for operating expenses and a C$10 million
 letter of credit facility. As of April&amp;#xA0;30,
 2016,&amp;#xA0;January&amp;#xA0;30, 2016 and May&amp;#xA0;2, 2015, and during
 the quarters and year then ended, there were no amounts outstanding
 on the Canadian credit line for operating expenses. As of
 April&amp;#xA0;30, 2016 and January&amp;#xA0;30, 2016, our European
 business at TJX International had an uncommitted credit line of
 &amp;#xA3;5 million. As of May&amp;#xA0;2, 2015, our European business at
 TJX International had an uncommitted credit line of &amp;#xA3;20
 million. As of April&amp;#xA0;30, 2016, January&amp;#xA0;30, 2016, and
 May&amp;#xA0;2, 2015, and during the quarters and year then ended,
 there were no amounts outstanding on the European credit line.&lt;/p&gt;

 &lt;b&gt;Note G. Segment Information&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 6pt"&gt;
 TJX operates four main business segments. The Marmaxx segment (T.J.
 Maxx, Marshalls and tjmaxx.com) and the HomeGoods segment both
 operate in the United States, the TJX Canada segment operates
 Winners, HomeSense and Marshalls in Canada, and the TJX
 International segment operates T.K. Maxx, HomeSense and tkmaxx.com
 in Europe and Trade Secret in Australia. TJX also operates Sierra
 Trading Post (STP), an off-price Internet retailer that operates
 sierratradingpost.com and a small number of stores in the U.S. The
 results of STP are included in the Marmaxx segment. The former TJX
 Europe segment was renamed TJX International in the fourth quarter
 of fiscal 2016 to reflect the acquisition of Trade Secret in
 Australia.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt"&gt;
 All of TJX&amp;#x2019;s stores, with the exception of HomeGoods and
 HomeSense, sell family apparel and home fashions. HomeGoods and
 HomeSense offer home fashions.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt"&gt;
 TJX evaluates the performance of its segments based on
 &amp;#x201C;segment profit or loss,&amp;#x201D; which it defines as pre-tax
 income or loss before general corporate expense and interest
 expense, net. &amp;#x201C;Segment profit or loss,&amp;#x201D; as defined by
 TJX, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by
 other entities. The terms &amp;#x201C;segment margin&amp;#x201D; or
 &amp;#x201C;segment profit margin&amp;#x201D; are used to describe segment
 profit or loss as a percentage of net sales. These measures of
 performance should not be considered alternatives to net income or
 cash flows from operating activities as an indicator of TJX&amp;#x2019;s
 performance or as a measure of liquidity.&lt;/p&gt;

 &lt;i&gt;Basis of Presentation:&lt;/i&gt; The consolidated interim financial
 statements are unaudited and, in the opinion of management, reflect
 all normal recurring adjustments, accruals and deferrals among
 periods required to match costs properly with the related revenue
 or activity, considered necessary by The TJX Companies, Inc.
 (together with its subsidiaries, &amp;#x201C;TJX&amp;#x201D;) for a fair
 statement of its financial statements for the periods reported, all
 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the
 United States of America (&amp;#x201C;GAAP&amp;#x201D;) consistently applied.
 The consolidated interim financial statements should be read in
 conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements,
 including the related notes, contained in TJX&amp;#x2019;s Annual Report
 on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January&amp;#xA0;30, 2016
 (&amp;#x201C;fiscal 2016&amp;#x201D;).&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"&gt;
 These interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for
 the full fiscal year, because TJX&amp;#x2019;s business, in common with
 the businesses of retailers generally, is subject to seasonal
 influences, with higher levels of sales and income generally
 realized in the second half of the year.&lt;/p&gt;

 Investments designed to meet obligations under the Executive
 Savings Plan are invested in registered investment companies traded
 in active markets and are recorded at unadjusted quoted prices.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0px; FONT-SIZE: 1px; MARGIN-TOP: 12px"&gt;
 &amp;#xA0;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 0pt"&gt;
 Short-term investments, foreign currency exchange contracts and
 diesel fuel contracts are valued using broker quotations which
 include observable market information. TJX&amp;#x2019;s investments are
 primarily high-grade commercial paper, institutional money market
 funds and time deposits with major banks. TJX does not make
 adjustments to quotes or prices obtained from brokers or pricing
 services but does assess the credit risk of counterparties and will
 adjust final valuations when appropriate. Where independent pricing
 services provide fair values, TJX obtains an understanding of the
 methods used in pricing. As such, these instruments are classified
 within Level 2.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt"&gt;
 The fair value of TJX&amp;#x2019;s general corporate debt was estimated
 by obtaining market quotes given the trading levels of other bonds
 of the same general issuer type and market perceived credit
 quality. These inputs are considered to be Level 2. The fair value
 of long-term debt as of April&amp;#xA0;30, 2016 was $1.7 billion
 compared to a carrying value of $1.6 billion. The fair value of
 long-term debt as of January&amp;#xA0;30, 2016 was $1.7 billion
 compared to a carrying value of $1.6 billion. The fair value of
 long-term debt as of May&amp;#xA0;2, 2015 was $1.7 billion compared to
 a carrying value of $1.6 billion. These estimates do not
 necessarily reflect provisions or restrictions in the various debt
 agreements that might affect TJX&amp;#x2019;s ability to settle these
 obligations.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt"&gt;
 TJX&amp;#x2019;s cash equivalents are stated at cost, which approximates
 fair value due to the short maturities of these instruments.&lt;/p&gt;

 &lt;i&gt;New Accounting Standards:&lt;/i&gt; In March 2016, a pronouncement was
 issued that aims to simplify several aspects of accounting and
 reporting for share-based payment transactions. One provision
 requires that excess income tax benefits and tax deficiencies
 related to share-based payments be recognized within income tax
 expense in the statement of income, rather than within additional
 paid-in capital on the balance sheet. The Company is currently
 evaluating the potential impact that this provision, which is to be
 applied prospectively, will have on its financial statements. The
 Company does not expect the other provisions within the
 pronouncement will have a material impact on its financial
 statements. The guidance is effective for annual reporting periods
 beginning after December&amp;#xA0;15, 2016, including interim periods,
 with early adoption permitted.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt"&gt;
 In May 2014, a pronouncement was issued that creates common revenue
 recognition guidance for U.S. GAAP and International Financial
 Reporting Standards. The new guidance supersedes most preexisting
 revenue recognition guidance. The core principle of the guidance is
 that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of
 promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects
 the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in
 exchange for those goods or services. The new standard was
 originally scheduled to be effective for annual reporting periods
 beginning after December&amp;#xA0;15, 2016, including interim periods
 within that reporting period. In April 2015, the Financial
 Accounting Standards Board proposed an update to this rule which
 would defer its effective date for one year. The proposed update
 stipulates the new standard would be effective for annual reporting
 periods beginning after December&amp;#xA0;15, 2017, and interim periods
 therein, with an option to adopt the standard on the originally
 scheduled effective date. The standard shall be applied either
 retrospectively to each period presented or as a cumulative-effect
 adjustment as of the date of adoption. For TJX, the standard will
 be effective in the first quarter of the fiscal year ending
 January&amp;#xA0;26, 2019. TJX is currently evaluating the impact of
 the new pronouncement on its consolidated financial statements.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt"&gt;
 In February 2016, a pronouncement was issued that aims to increase
 transparency and comparability among organizations by requiring
 lessees to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities on the
 balance sheet and requiring disclosure of key information about
 leasing arrangements. ASU 2016-02 is effective for annual periods
 beginning after December&amp;#xA0;15, 2018, and interim periods within
 those annual periods; early adoption is permitted and modified
 retrospective application is required. TJX is in the process of
 evaluating this guidance to determine the impact it will have on
 our financial statements.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt"&gt;
 In March 2016, a pronouncement was issued that aims to address the
 diversity in practice related to the derecognition of prepaid
 store-value product liabilities. ASU 2016-04 is effective for
 annual periods beginning after December&amp;#xA0;15, 2017 and interim
 periods within those annual periods; early adoption is permitted
 and modified retrospective application is required. TJX is in the
 process of evaluating this guidance to determine the impact it will
 have on our financial statements.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt"&gt;
 In April 2015, a pronouncement was issued that requires debt
 issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented
 in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount
 of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The
 guidance was effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within
 those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. For TJX, the
 standard was effective in the first quarter of fiscal 2017. As a
 result, we have recast the January 30, 2016 consolidated balance
 sheet to conform to the current period presentation. The adoption
 of this standard reduced previously-presented other assets by $9.1
 million and reduced long-term debt by $9.1 million as of
 January&amp;#xA0;30, 2016. In addition, we have also recast the
 May&amp;#xA0;2, 2015 consolidated balance sheet to conform to the
 current period presentation. The adoption of this standard reduced
 previously-presented other assets by $10.3 million and reduced
 long-term debt by $10.3 million as of May&amp;#xA0;2, 2015.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt"&gt;
 In November 2015, a pronouncement was issued that requires entities
 to present deferred tax assets (DTAs) and deferred tax liabilities
 (DTLs) as noncurrent in a classified balance sheet. It simplifies
 the current guidance, which requires entities to separately present
 DTAs and DTLs as current or noncurrent in a classified balance
 sheet. TJX adopted this guidance as of January&amp;#xA0;30, 2016, and
 applied it retrospectively. The effect on May&amp;#xA0;2, 2015
 consolidated balance sheet was to reduce previously-presented
 current DTAs by $147.6 million, decreased long-term DTAs by $2.2
 million and reduced long-term DTLs by $149.8 million as of
 May&amp;#xA0;2, 2015.&lt;/p&gt;

 &lt;i&gt;Cash and Cash Equivalents&lt;/i&gt;: TJX generally considers highly
 liquid investments with a maturity of 90 days or less at the date
 of purchase to be cash equivalents. As of April&amp;#xA0;30, 2016,
 TJX&amp;#x2019;s cash and cash equivalents held by its foreign
 subsidiaries were $1,217.6 million, of which $296.0 million was
 held in countries where TJX has the intention to reinvest any
 undistributed earnings indefinitely.&lt;/p&gt;

 &lt;p style="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"&gt;
 &lt;b&gt;Note J. Income Taxes&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"&gt;
 The effective income tax rate was 38.4% for the fiscal 2017 first
 quarter and 38.0% for the fiscal 2016 first quarter. The increase
 in the effective income tax rate was primarily due to the
 jurisdictional mix of income and the increase in valuation
 allowance on foreign net operating losses.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"&gt;
 TJX had net unrecognized tax benefits of $35.3 million as of
 April&amp;#xA0;30, 2016, $34.1 million as of January&amp;#xA0;30, 2016 and
 $33.7 million as of May&amp;#xA0;2, 2015.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"&gt;
 TJX is subject to U.S. federal income tax as well as income tax in
 multiple state, local and foreign jurisdictions. In the U.S.,
 fiscal years through 2010 are no longer subject to examination. In
 Canada, fiscal years through 2007 are no longer subject to
 examination. In all other jurisdictions, fiscal years through 2009
 are no longer subject to examination.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"&gt;
 TJX&amp;#x2019;s accounting policy classifies interest and penalties
 related to income tax matters as part of income tax expense. The
 total accrued amount on the balance sheets for interest and
 penalties was $7.4 million as of April&amp;#xA0;30, 2016, $7.0 million
 as of January&amp;#xA0;30, 2016 and $10.5 million as of May&amp;#xA0;2,
 2015.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"&gt;
 Based on the outcome of tax examinations or judicial or
 administrative proceedings, or as a result of the expiration of
 statute of limitations in specific jurisdictions, it is reasonably
 possible that unrecognized tax benefits for certain tax positions
 taken on previously filed tax returns may change materially from
 those presented in the financial statements. During the next 12
 months, it is reasonably possible that tax examinations of prior
 years&amp;#x2019; tax returns or judicial or administrative proceedings
 that reflect such positions taken by TJX may be finalized. As a
 result, the total net amount of unrecognized tax benefits may
 decrease, which would reduce the provision for taxes on earnings,
 by a range of zero to $11 million.&lt;/p&gt;

 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt"&gt;
 &lt;b&gt;Note A. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 6pt"&gt;
 &lt;i&gt;Basis of Presentation:&lt;/i&gt; The consolidated interim financial
 statements are unaudited and, in the opinion of management, reflect
 all normal recurring adjustments, accruals and deferrals among
 periods required to match costs properly with the related revenue
 or activity, considered necessary by The TJX Companies, Inc.
 (together with its subsidiaries, &amp;#x201C;TJX&amp;#x201D;) for a fair
 statement of its financial statements for the periods reported, all
 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the
 United States of America (&amp;#x201C;GAAP&amp;#x201D;) consistently applied.
 The consolidated interim financial statements should be read in
 conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements,
 including the related notes, contained in TJX&amp;#x2019;s Annual Report
 on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January&amp;#xA0;30, 2016
 (&amp;#x201C;fiscal 2016&amp;#x201D;).&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt"&gt;
 These interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for
 the full fiscal year, because TJX&amp;#x2019;s business, in common with
 the businesses of retailers generally, is subject to seasonal
 influences, with higher levels of sales and income generally
 realized in the second half of the year.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt"&gt;
 The January&amp;#xA0;30, 2016 balance sheet data was derived from
 audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures
 required by GAAP.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt"&gt;
 &lt;i&gt;Fiscal Year:&lt;/i&gt; TJX&amp;#x2019;s fiscal year ends on the Saturday
 nearest to the last day of January of each year. The current fiscal
 year ends January&amp;#xA0;28, 2017 (&amp;#x201C;fiscal 2017&amp;#x201D;) and is
 a 52-week fiscal year. Fiscal 2016 was also a 52-week fiscal
 year.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt"&gt;
 &lt;i&gt;Share-Based Compensation:&lt;/i&gt; TJX accounts for share-based
 compensation by estimating the fair value of each award on the date
 of grant. TJX uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model for stock
 options awarded and uses the market price on the grant date for
 performance-based restricted stock awards. Total share-based
 compensation expense was $25.0 million for the quarter ended
 April&amp;#xA0;30, 2016 and $21.2 million for the quarter ended
 May&amp;#xA0;2, 2015. These amounts include stock option expense as
 well as restricted and deferred stock amortization. There were
 options to purchase 2.3&amp;#xA0;million shares of common stock
 exercised during the quarter ended April&amp;#xA0;30, 2016. There were
 options outstanding to purchase 26.3&amp;#xA0;million shares of common
 stock as of April&amp;#xA0;30, 2016. As of April&amp;#xA0;30, 2016, there
 was $147.5 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related
 to nonvested share-based compensation arrangements granted under
 TJX&amp;#x2019;s stock incentive plan.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt"&gt;
 &lt;i&gt;Cash and Cash Equivalents&lt;/i&gt;: TJX generally considers highly
 liquid investments with a maturity of 90 days or less at the date
 of purchase to be cash equivalents. As of April&amp;#xA0;30, 2016,
 TJX&amp;#x2019;s cash and cash equivalents held by its foreign
 subsidiaries were $1,217.6 million, of which $296.0 million was
 held in countries where TJX has the intention to reinvest any
 undistributed earnings indefinitely.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt"&gt;
 &lt;i&gt;Investments:&lt;/i&gt; Investments with maturities greater than 90
 days but less than one year at the date of purchase are included in
 short-term investments. These investments are classified as trading
 securities and are stated at fair value. Investments are classified
 as either short- or long-term based on their original maturities.
 TJX&amp;#x2019;s investments are primarily high-grade commercial paper,
 institutional money market funds and time deposits with major
 banks.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt"&gt;
 &lt;i&gt;Merchandise Inventories&lt;/i&gt;: Inventories are stated at the lower
 of cost or market. TJX uses the retail method for valuing
 inventories at all of its businesses, except at Sierra Trading Post
 (&amp;#x201C;STP&amp;#x201D;) and Trade Secret. The businesses that utilize
 the retail method have some inventory that is initially valued at
 cost before the retail method is applied as it has not been fully
 processed for sale (e.g. inventory in transit and unprocessed
 inventory in our distribution centers). Under the retail method,
 TJX utilizes a permanent markdown strategy and lowers the cost
 value of the inventory that is subject to markdown at the time the
 retail prices are lowered in the stores. TJX accrues for inventory
 obligations at the time title transfers, which is typically at the
 time when inventory is shipped. As a result, merchandise
 inventories on TJX&amp;#x2019;s balance sheet include an accrual for
 in-transit inventory of $544.0 million at April&amp;#xA0;30, 2016,
 $690.3 million at January&amp;#xA0;30, 2016 and $534.6 million at
 May&amp;#xA0;2, 2015. Comparable amounts were reflected in accounts
 payable at those dates.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0px; FONT-SIZE: 1px; MARGIN-TOP: 12px"&gt;
 &amp;#xA0;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 0pt"&gt;
 &lt;i&gt;Leases:&lt;/i&gt; TJX begins to record rent expense when it takes
 possession of a store, which is typically 30 to 60 days prior to
 the opening of the store and generally occurs before the
 commencement of the lease term, as specified in the lease. Lease
 agreements involving property built to our specifications are
 reviewed to determine if our involvement in the construction
 project requires that we account for the project costs as if we
 were the owner for accounting purposes. We have entered into
 several lease agreements where we are deemed the owner of a
 construction project for accounting purposes. Thus, during
 construction of the facility the construction costs incurred by the
 lessor are included as a construction in progress asset along with
 a related liability of the same amount on our balance sheet. Upon
 completion of the project, a sale-leaseback analysis is performed
 to determine if the Company should record a sale to remove the
 related asset and related obligation and record the lease as either
 an operating or capital lease obligation. If the Company is
 precluded from derecognizing the asset when construction is
 complete, due to continuing involvement beyond a normal leaseback,
 the lease is accounted for as a financing transaction and the
 recorded asset and related financing obligation remain on the
 Consolidated Balance Sheets. Accordingly, the asset is depreciated
 over its estimated useful life in accordance with the
 Company&amp;#x2019;s policy and a portion of the lease payments is
 allocated to ground rent and treated as an operating lease. The
 portion of the lease payment allocated to ground rental expense is
 based on the fair value of the land at the commencement of
 construction. Lease payments allocated to the non-land asset are
 recognized as reductions to the financing obligation and interest
 expense.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt"&gt;
 &lt;i&gt;New Accounting Standards:&lt;/i&gt; In March 2016, a pronouncement was
 issued that aims to simplify several aspects of accounting and
 reporting for share-based payment transactions. One provision
 requires that excess income tax benefits and tax deficiencies
 related to share-based payments be recognized within income tax
 expense in the statement of income, rather than within additional
 paid-in capital on the balance sheet. The Company is currently
 evaluating the potential impact that this provision, which is to be
 applied prospectively, will have on its financial statements. The
 Company does not expect the other provisions within the
 pronouncement will have a material impact on its financial
 statements. The guidance is effective for annual reporting periods
 beginning after December&amp;#xA0;15, 2016, including interim periods,
 with early adoption permitted.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt"&gt;
 In May 2014, a pronouncement was issued that creates common revenue
 recognition guidance for U.S. GAAP and International Financial
 Reporting Standards. The new guidance supersedes most preexisting
 revenue recognition guidance. The core principle of the guidance is
 that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of
 promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects
 the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in
 exchange for those goods or services. The new standard was
 originally scheduled to be effective for annual reporting periods
 beginning after December&amp;#xA0;15, 2016, including interim periods
 within that reporting period. In April 2015, the Financial
 Accounting Standards Board proposed an update to this rule which
 would defer its effective date for one year. The proposed update
 stipulates the new standard would be effective for annual reporting
 periods beginning after December&amp;#xA0;15, 2017, and interim periods
 therein, with an option to adopt the standard on the originally
 scheduled effective date. The standard shall be applied either
 retrospectively to each period presented or as a cumulative-effect
 adjustment as of the date of adoption. For TJX, the standard will
 be effective in the first quarter of the fiscal year ending
 January&amp;#xA0;26, 2019. TJX is currently evaluating the impact of
 the new pronouncement on its consolidated financial statements.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt"&gt;
 In February 2016, a pronouncement was issued that aims to increase
 transparency and comparability among organizations by requiring
 lessees to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities on the
 balance sheet and requiring disclosure of key information about
 leasing arrangements. ASU 2016-02 is effective for annual periods
 beginning after December&amp;#xA0;15, 2018, and interim periods within
 those annual periods; early adoption is permitted and modified
 retrospective application is required. TJX is in the process of
 evaluating this guidance to determine the impact it will have on
 our financial statements.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt"&gt;
 In March 2016, a pronouncement was issued that aims to address the
 diversity in practice related to the derecognition of prepaid
 store-value product liabilities. ASU 2016-04 is effective for
 annual periods beginning after December&amp;#xA0;15, 2017 and interim
 periods within those annual periods; early adoption is permitted
 and modified retrospective application is required. TJX is in the
 process of evaluating this guidance to determine the impact it will
 have on our financial statements.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt"&gt;
 In April 2015, a pronouncement was issued that requires debt
 issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented
 in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount
 of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The
 guidance was effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within
 those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. For TJX, the
 standard was effective in the first quarter of fiscal 2017. As a
 result, we have recast the January 30, 2016 consolidated balance
 sheet to conform to the current period presentation. The adoption
 of this standard reduced previously-presented other assets by $9.1
 million and reduced long-term debt by $9.1 million as of
 January&amp;#xA0;30, 2016. In addition, we have also recast the
 May&amp;#xA0;2, 2015 consolidated balance sheet to conform to the
 current period presentation. The adoption of this standard reduced
 previously-presented other assets by $10.3 million and reduced
 long-term debt by $10.3 million as of May&amp;#xA0;2, 2015.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt"&gt;
 In November 2015, a pronouncement was issued that requires entities
 to present deferred tax assets (DTAs) and deferred tax liabilities
 (DTLs) as noncurrent in a classified balance sheet. It simplifies
 the current guidance, which requires entities to separately present
 DTAs and DTLs as current or noncurrent in a classified balance
 sheet. TJX adopted this guidance as of January&amp;#xA0;30, 2016, and
 applied it retrospectively. The effect on May&amp;#xA0;2, 2015
 consolidated balance sheet was to reduce previously-presented
 current DTAs by $147.6 million, decreased long-term DTAs by $2.2
 million and reduced long-term DTLs by $149.8 million as of
 May&amp;#xA0;2, 2015.&lt;/p&gt;

 The weighted average common shares for the diluted earnings per

 if the assumed proceeds per share of the option is in excess of the
 related fiscal period&amp;#x2019;s average price of TJX&amp;#x2019;s common
 stock. Such options are excluded because they would have an
 antidilutive effect. There were 4.1&amp;#xA0;million such options
 excluded for the thirteen weeks ended April&amp;#xA0;30, 2016. There
 were 4.7&amp;#xA0;million such options excluded for the thirteen weeks
 ended May&amp;#xA0;2, 2015.&lt;/p&gt;

 &lt;b&gt;Note K. Contingent Obligations and Contingencies&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 6pt"&gt;
 &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Contingent Obligations:&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt; TJX has contingent
 obligations on leases, for which it was a lessee or guarantor,
 which were assigned to third parties without TJX being released by
 the landlords. Over many years, TJX has assigned numerous leases
 that we originally leased or guaranteed to a significant number of
 third parties. With the exception of leases of former businesses
 for which TJX has reserved, we have rarely had a claim with respect
 to assigned leases, and accordingly, we do not expect that such
 leases will have a material adverse impact on our financial
 condition, results of operations or cash flows. TJX does not
 generally have sufficient information about these leases to
 estimate our potential contingent obligations under them, which
 could be triggered in the event that one or more of the current
 tenants does not fulfill their obligations related to one or more
 of these leases. TJX may also be contingently liable on up to nine
 leases of former TJX businesses which we believe the likelihood of
 future liability to TJX is remote.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0px; FONT-SIZE: 1px; MARGIN-TOP: 12px"&gt;
 &amp;#xA0;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 0pt"&gt;
 TJX also has contingent obligations in connection with certain
 assigned or sublet properties that TJX is able to estimate. We
 estimate that the undiscounted obligations of (i)&amp;#xA0;leases of
 former operations not included in our reserve for former operations
 and (ii) properties of our former operations if the subtenants do
 not fulfill their obligations, are approximately $43 million as of
 April&amp;#xA0;30, 2016. We believe that most or all of these
 contingent obligations will not revert to us and, to the extent
 they do, will be resolved for substantially less due to mitigating
 factors including our expectation to further sublet.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt"&gt;
 TJX is a party to various agreements under which it may be
 obligated to indemnify the other party with respect to breach of
 warranty or losses related to such matters as title to assets sold,
 specified environmental matters or certain income taxes. These
 obligations are typically limited in time and amount. There are no
 amounts reflected in our balance sheets with respect to these
 contingent obligations.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt"&gt;
 &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Contingencies:&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt; TJX is subject to certain legal
 proceedings, lawsuits, disputes and claims that arise from time to
 time in the ordinary course of our business. In addition, TJX is a
 defendant in several lawsuits filed in federal and state courts
 brought as putative class or collective actions on behalf of
 various groups of current and former salaried and hourly associates
 in the U.S. The lawsuits allege violations of the Fair Labor
 Standards Act and of state wage and hour and other labor statutes,
 including alleged misclassification of positions as exempt from
 overtime, alleged entitlement to additional wages for alleged
 off-the-clock work by hourly employees and alleged failure to pay
 all wages due upon termination. TJX is also a defendant in lawsuits
 filed in federal courts brought as putative class actions on behalf
 of customers relating to TJX&amp;#x2019;s compare at pricing. The
 lawsuits are in various procedural stages and seek unspecified
 monetary damages, injunctive relief and attorneys&amp;#x2019; fees. In
 connection with ongoing litigation, an immaterial amount has been
 accrued in the accompanying financial statements.&lt;/p&gt;

 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 6pt"&gt;
 As a result of its operating and financing activities, TJX is
 exposed to market risks from changes in interest and foreign
 currency exchange rates and fuel costs. These market risks may
 adversely affect TJX&amp;#x2019;s operating results and financial
 position. When and to the extent deemed appropriate, TJX seeks to
 minimize risk from changes in interest and foreign currency
 exchange rates and fuel costs through the use of derivative
 financial instruments. TJX does not use derivative financial
 instruments for trading or other speculative purposes and does not
 use any leveraged derivative financial instruments. TJX recognizes
 all derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities in the
 statements of financial position and measures those instruments at
 fair value. The fair values of the derivatives are classified as
 assets or liabilities, current or non-current, based upon valuation
 results and settlement dates of the individual contracts. Changes
 to the fair value of derivative contracts that do not qualify for
 hedge accounting are reported in earnings in the period of the
 change. For derivatives that qualify for hedge accounting, changes
 in the fair value of the derivatives are either recorded in
 shareholders&amp;#x2019; equity as a component of other comprehensive
 income or are recognized currently in earnings, along with an
 offsetting adjustment against the basis of the item being hedged.
 TJX does not hedge its net investments in foreign subsidiaries.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt"&gt;
 &lt;i&gt;Diesel Fuel Contracts:&lt;/i&gt; When and to the extent deemed
 appropriate, TJX hedges portions of its estimated notional diesel
 requirements based on the diesel fuel expected to be consumed by
 independent freight carriers transporting TJX&amp;#x2019;s inventory.
 Independent freight carriers transporting TJX&amp;#x2019;s inventory
 charge TJX a mileage surcharge based on the price of diesel fuel.
 The hedge agreements are designed to mitigate the volatility of
 diesel fuel pricing (and the resulting per mile surcharges payable
 by TJX) by setting a fixed price per gallon for the period being
 hedged. During fiscal 2016 and the first three months of fiscal
 2017, TJX entered into agreements to hedge a portion of its
 estimated notional diesel requirements for fiscal 2017. The hedge
 agreements outstanding at April&amp;#xA0;30, 2016 relate to
 approximately 53% of TJX&amp;#x2019;s estimated notional diesel
 requirements for the remainder of fiscal 2017. These diesel fuel
 hedge agreements will settle throughout the remainder of fiscal
 2017. TJX elected not to apply hedge accounting rules to these
 contracts.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt"&gt;
 &lt;i&gt;Foreign Currency Contracts:&lt;/i&gt; When and to the extent deemed
 appropriate, TJX enters into forward foreign currency exchange
 contracts to obtain economic hedges on portions of merchandise
 purchases made and anticipated to be made by the Company&amp;#x2019;s
 operations in Europe (United Kingdom, Ireland, Germany, Poland,
 Austria and The Netherlands), TJX Canada (Canada), Marmaxx (U.S.)
 and HomeGoods (U.S.) in currencies other than their respective
 functional currencies. These contracts typically have a term of
 twelve months or less. The contracts outstanding at April&amp;#xA0;30,
 2016 cover a portion of such actual and anticipated merchandise
 purchases throughout the remainder of fiscal 2017. Additionally,
 TJX&amp;#x2019;s operations in Europe are subject to foreign currency
 exposure as a result of their buying function being centralized in
 the United Kingdom. All merchandise is purchased centrally in the
 U.K. and then shipped and billed to the retail entities in other
 countries. This intercompany billing to TJX&amp;#x2019;s European
 businesses&amp;#x2019; Euro denominated operations creates exposure to
 the buying entity for changes in the exchange rate between the Euro
 and British Pound. The inflow of Euros to the central buying entity
 provides a natural hedge for merchandise purchased from third-party
 vendors that is denominated in Euros. However, with the growth of
 TJX&amp;#x2019;s Euro denominated retail operations, the intercompany
 billings committed to the Euro denominated operations is generating
 Euros in excess of those needed to meet merchandise commitments to
 outside vendors. TJX calculates this excess Euro exposure each
 month and enters a 30 day hedge to mitigate the exposure. TJX
 elected not to apply hedge accounting rules to these contracts.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt"&gt;
 When and to the extent deemed appropriate, TJX also enters into
 derivative contracts, generally designated as fair value hedges, to
 hedge intercompany debt and intercompany interest payable. The
 changes in fair value of these contracts are recorded in selling,
 general and administrative expenses and are offset by marking the
 underlying item to fair value in the same period. Upon settlement,
 the realized gains and losses on these contracts are offset by the
 realized gains and losses of the underlying item in selling,
 general and administrative expenses.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0px; FONT-SIZE: 1px; MARGIN-TOP: 12px"&gt;

 &lt;i&gt;Leases:&lt;/i&gt; TJX begins to record rent expense when it takes
 possession of a store, which is typically 30 to 60 days prior to
 the opening of the store and generally occurs before the
 commencement of the lease term, as specified in the lease. Lease
 agreements involving property built to our specifications are
 reviewed to determine if our involvement in the construction
 project requires that we account for the project costs as if we
 were the owner for accounting purposes. We have entered into
 several lease agreements where we are deemed the owner of a
 construction project for accounting purposes. Thus, during
 construction of the facility the construction costs incurred by the
 lessor are included as a construction in progress asset along with
 a related liability of the same amount on our balance sheet. Upon
 completion of the project, a sale-leaseback analysis is performed
 to determine if the Company should record a sale to remove the
 related asset and related obligation and record the lease as either
 an operating or capital lease obligation. If the Company is
 precluded from derecognizing the asset when construction is
 complete, due to continuing involvement beyond a normal leaseback,
 the lease is accounted for as a financing transaction and the
 recorded asset and related financing obligation remain on the
 Consolidated Balance Sheets. Accordingly, the asset is depreciated
 over its estimated useful life in accordance with the
 Company&amp;#x2019;s policy and a portion of the lease payments is
 allocated to ground rent and treated as an operating lease. The
 portion of the lease payment allocated to ground rental expense is
 based on the fair value of the land at the commencement of
 construction. Lease payments allocated to the non-land asset are
 recognized as reductions to the financing obligation and interest
 expense.&lt;/p&gt;

 TJX&amp;#x2019;s policy with respect to the funded plan is to fund, at a
 minimum, the amount required to maintain a funded status of 80% of
 the applicable pension liability (the funding target pursuant to
 the Internal Revenue Code section 430) or such other amount
 sufficient to avoid restrictions with respect to the funding of
 TJX&amp;#x2019;s nonqualified plans under the Internal Revenue Code. TJX
 does not anticipate any required funding in fiscal 2017 for the
 funded plan. TJX anticipates making payments of $3.3 million to
 provide current benefits coming due under the unfunded plan in
 fiscal 2017.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt"&gt;
 The amounts included in recognized actuarial losses in the table
 above have been reclassified in their entirety from other
 comprehensive income to the statements of income, net of related
 tax effects, for the periods presented.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0px; FONT-SIZE: 1px; MARGIN-TOP: 12px"&gt;
 &amp;#xA0;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 0pt"&gt;
 TJX also has an unfunded postretirement medical plan which was
 closed to new benefits in fiscal 2006. The amendment to the plan
 benefits in fiscal 2006 resulted in a negative plan amendment which
 was being amortized to income over the estimated average remaining
 life of the eligible plan participants.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt"&gt;
 During the first quarter of fiscal 2017, TJX terminated the
 unfunded postretirement medical plan and made a discretionary lump
 sum payment to participants. The settlement of the liability and
 the recognition of the remaining negative plan amendment resulted
 in a pre-tax benefit of $5.5 million in the first quarter of fiscal
 2017. Amortization from other comprehensive income to net income
 was $864,000 for the quarter ended May&amp;#xA0;2, 2015.&lt;/p&gt;

 &lt;i&gt;Merchandise Inventories&lt;/i&gt;: Inventories are stated at the lower
 of cost or market. TJX uses the retail method for valuing
 inventories at all of its businesses, except at Sierra Trading Post
 (&amp;#x201C;STP&amp;#x201D;) and Trade Secret. The businesses that utilize
 the retail method have some inventory that is initially valued at
 cost before the retail method is applied as it has not been fully
 processed for sale (e.g. inventory in transit and unprocessed
 inventory in our distribution centers). Under the retail method,
 TJX utilizes a permanent markdown strategy and lowers the cost
 value of the inventory that is subject to markdown at the time the
 retail prices are lowered in the stores. TJX accrues for inventory
 obligations at the time title transfers, which is typically at the
 time when inventory is shipped. As a result, merchandise
 inventories on TJX&amp;#x2019;s balance sheet include an accrual for
 in-transit inventory of $544.0 million at April&amp;#xA0;30, 2016,
 $690.3 million at January&amp;#xA0;30, 2016 and $534.6 million at
 May&amp;#xA0;2, 2015. Comparable amounts were reflected in accounts
 payable at those dates.&lt;/p&gt;
