The weighted average common shares for the diluted earnings per share calculation excludes the impact of outstanding stock options if the assumed proceeds per share of the option is in excess of the average price of TJX’s common stock for the related fiscal periods. Such options are excluded because they would have an antidilutive effect. There were 3 million and 4 million antidilutive options excluded for the thirteen weeks ended May 2, 2026 and May 3, 2025, respectively.
