TJX Companies, Inc. (NYSE: TJX) -- parent of T.J. Maxx, Marshalls, Home Goods, and other stores in which budget-conscious fashionistas scramble for bargains -- demonstrated that it is budget-minded as well today when it reported its latest quarterly earnings figures.

The company's first-quarter profit rose 8% on a year-over-year basis to $209.2 million, or 49 cents per share. Overall sales ticked up 1% to $4.35 billion, while same-store sales rose 2%. Earnings numbers were roughly on par with Street estimates, while sales were slightly ahead of the mark -- analysts were expecting per-share results of 49 cents on $4.32 billion in sales.

TJX Cos. (NYSE: TJX) - parent of the T.J. Maxx, HomeGoods, and Marshalls chains of discount retailers - said this morning that third-quarter profit jumped 13% to $249.5 million, or 54 cents per share. This figure was a penny shy of analysts' consensus estimate of 55 cents.

Revenue rose 6% during the 3-month reporting period to $4.74 billion from $4.47 billion in the year-ago period. Same-store sales jumped 3%. This headline number also failed to meet Street expectations of $4.79 billion.
