Carol Meyrowitz, President and Chief Executive Officer of The TJX Companies, Inc., stated, February comparable store sales, on both a consolidated basis and at The Marmaxx Group, were above plan as we finished the month more strongly than we had anticipated.
Our year-over-year comp sales comparisons, which were more challenging relative to most in our sector, underscore the strength of our business. As we have stated recently, our momentum has continued into the first quarter as we believe that value is more important to consumers than ever before. All of our businesses are performing well and our stores look terrific with exciting selections of fresh fashions as we head into Spring.
