TJX Companies modified four existing risk disclosures between the 2025 and 2026 10-K filings while maintaining 25 unchanged risks, with no new risks added or existing risks removed. The most significant modifications involved strengthened language around operational cash flow dependencies for capital allocation, liquidity management amid global economic volatility, and merger and acquisition strategy risks. These changes suggest TJX refined its disclosure of financial and operational vulnerabilities without materially expanding its risk factor profile.
