Share-Based Payment Arrangement [Abstract] |
Stock Incentive Plan | Stock Incentive Plan TJX has a Stock Incentive Plan under which options and other share-based awards may be granted to its directors, officers and key employees. The number of shares authorized for issuance under this plan has been approved by TJX’s shareholders, and all share-based compensation awards are made under this plan. The Stock Incentive Plan, as amended with shareholder approval, has provided for the issuance of up to 723 million shares with 49 million shares available for future grants as of January 28, 2023. TJX issues shares under the plan from authorized but unissued common stock. Total compensation cost related to share-based compensation was $122 million, $189 million and $59 million in fiscal 2023, 2022 and 2021, respectively. As of January 28, 2023, there was $178 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested share-based compensation arrangements granted under the plan. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2 years. Stock Options Options for the purchase of common stock are granted with an exercise price that is 100% of market price on the grant date, generally vest in thirds over a 3-year period starting 1 year after the grant, and have a 10-year maximum term. When options are granted with other vesting terms, the vesting information is reflected in the valuation. The fair value of options is estimated as of the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions:
| Fiscal Year Ended
| January 28, 2023 | January 29, 2022 | January 30, 2021
Risk-free interest rate | 3.69 | % | 0.84 | % | 0.28 | %
Dividend yield | 1.8 | % | 1.5 | % | 1.4 | %
Expected volatility factor | 26.0 | % | 23.8 | % | 26.5 | %
Expected option life | 5.5 years | 5.0 years | 5.0 years
Weighted average fair value of options issued | $ | 16.68 |  | $ | 12.85 |  | $ | 11.29 |
The risk-free interest rate is for periods within the contractual life of the option based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. The Company uses historical data to estimate option exercises, employee termination behavior and dividend yield within the valuation model. Expected volatility is based on a combination of implied volatility from traded options on the Company’s stock, and historical volatility during a term approximating the expected life of the option granted. The expected option life represents an estimate of the period of time options are expected to remain outstanding based upon historical exercise trends. Employee groups and option characteristics are considered separately for valuation purposes when applicable. A summary of the status of TJX’s stock options and related weighted average exercise prices (“WAEP”) is presented below:
| Fiscal Year Ended
Shares in millions | January 28, 2023 | January 29, 2022 | January 30, 2021
| Options | WAEP | Options | WAEP | Options | WAEP
Outstanding at beginning of year | 40 |  | $ | 47.11 |  | 43 |  | $ | 41.79 |  | 45 |  | $ | 36.81 |
Granted | 6 |  | 65.54 |  | 5 |  | 70.48 |  | 6 |  | 57.32 |
Exercised | (8) |  | 38.12 |  | (7) |  | 32.04 |  | (8) |  | 25.68 |
Forfeitures | (1) |  | 63.29 |  | (1) |  | 57.55 |  | 0 |  | 52.96 |
Outstanding at end of year | 37 |  | $ | 51.88 |  | 40 |  | $ | 47.11 |  | 43 |  | $ | 41.79 |
Options exercisable at end of year | 26 |  | $ | 45.99 |  | 29 |  | $ | 40.93 |  | 31 |  | $ | 36.05 |
The total intrinsic value of options exercised was $0.3 billion in each of fiscal 2023, fiscal 2022 and fiscal 2021. The following table summarizes information about stock options outstanding that were expected to vest and stock options outstanding that were exercisable as of January 28, 2023:
| Shares (in millions) | Aggregate Intrinsic Value (in millions) | Weighted Average Remaining Contract Life | WAEP
Options outstanding expected to vest(a) | 10 |  | $ | 170 |  | 9.0 years | $ | 65.58 |
Options exercisable | 26 |  | 939 |  | 4.9 years | 45.99 |
Total outstanding options vested and expected to vest | 36 |  | $ | 1,109 |  | 6.1 years | $ | 51.58 |
(a)Reflects 11 million unvested options, net of anticipated forfeitures. Stock Awards TJX grants restricted stock units and performance share units under the Stock Incentive Plan. Restricted stock units and performance share units are collectively referred to as stock awards. These stock awards were granted without a purchase price to the recipient and are subject to vesting conditions. Vesting conditions for performance share units include specified performance criteria, generally for a period of three fiscal years. The grant date fair value of the stock awards is charged to income over the requisite service period during which the recipient must remain employed. The fair value of the stock awards is determined at date of grant in accordance with ASC Topic 718 and, for performance share units, assumes that performance goals will be achieved at target. Performance share units and related compensation costs recognized are adjusted, as applicable, for performance above or below the target specified in the award. During fiscal 2022, modifications were approved to previously-granted nonvested performance share unit awards. Under ASC Topic 718 these modifications required that the fair value of these awards be adjusted to reflect the fair value on the date of the modification and resulted in a share-based compensation charge of $37 million in fiscal 2022. There were no modifications to stock awards in fiscal 2023. A summary of the status of the Company’s non-vested stock awards and changes during fiscal 2023 is presented below:
In thousands except grant date fair value | Restricted Stock Units | Performance Share Units | Total Stock Awards | Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value
Nonvested at beginning of year | 1,836 |  | 932 |  | 2,768 |  | $ | 58.91 |
Granted | 461 |  | 471 |  | 932 |  | 60.46 |
Vested | (368) |  | (627) |  | (995) |  | 55.27 |
Forfeited | (62) |  | (15) |  | (77) |  | 27.29 |
Nonvested at end of year | 1,867 |  | 761 |  | 2,628 |  | $ | 61.76 |
There were 932 thousand units with a weighted average grant date fair value of $60.46, granted in fiscal 2023, 820 thousand units, with a weighted average grant date fair value of $65.53, granted in fiscal 2022 and 857 thousand units, with a weighted average grant date fair value of $56.24, granted in fiscal 2021. The fair value of awards that vested was $55 million in fiscal 2023, $44 million in fiscal 2022 and $57 million in fiscal 2021. The nonvested performance share units are based on the target level of performance achievement under the awards. The actual payout of performance share units will depend on performance results for the award cycle. Other Awards TJX also awards deferred shares to its outside directors under the Stock Incentive Plan. As of the end of fiscal 2023, a total of 433 thousand of these deferred shares were outstanding under the plan.
