☆ Costco and TJX crushed rivals in an inflationary world. What happens as prices come down?
▼ + stars: | 2024-02-04 | by ( Paulina Likos | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +10 min

Costco and TJX Companies should be able to manage the emerging transition to deflation by leveraging their deep value propositions to get customers to buy more. Average sale prices on other items like TVs have been lower while unit sales have gone higher. Membership fee revenue is some of the glue that allows Costco to keep prices so low. Costco can boost sales in either scenario by "encouraging its members to buy more items to get more savings," Feldman said. Like Costco, Feldman said the off-price retailer would need to increase revenue either through price or number of units.

On Black Friday, the big shopping day after Thanksgiving, online spending alone is seen rising 5.7% to $9.6 billion.

TJX Companies (TJX) reported better-than-expected fiscal year 2024 third-quarter results on Wednesday, while again raising its outlook for the full fiscal year — prompting us to upgrade the stock to a buy-equivalent rating. Same-store sales were positive in every segment, with results in the Marmaxx and HomeGoods divisions "entirely driven by customer traffic," according to the company. Management was forced to shave the company's fourth-quarter guidance range to reflect a 3 cent-per-share expense that was pushed out from the third quarter to the fourth. The company also reiterated its same-store sales forecast for the fourth quarter, while increasing its same-store sales forecast for the full year. As was the case with TJX's last earnings report, the company's higher-than-expected cost of sales is not cause for concern as it's a function of higher-than-expected sales results.

When TJX Companies (TJX) reports quarterly results this week, we expect the off-price retailer to demonstrate continued momentum on both its top and bottom lines, helped by consumers looking for solid deals in an uncertain economic environment. And we're confident management can deliver a further expansion of gross margins as wary American consumers look for value at TJX's popular off-price chains. "Traffic remains the primary driver for comp in off-price," Barclays said in a recent research note previewing earnings for TJX and peers Ross Stores (ROSS) and Burlington Stores (BURL). Higher profits In addition to delivering higher sales, TJX continues to show improved profitability — a trend we expect to accelerate when the company reports on Wednesday. At the same time, according to Telsey, TJX faces headwinds from incremental store wage and payroll costs.
