TGT Gross Margin Analysis

Gross margin is the percentage of revenue left after paying direct product costs, so Target keeps 29.0 cents of every dollar before other expenses.

That 29.0% sits well below the sector median of 45.1%, placing the company at the 23rd percentile among peers, meaning most similar companies retain a larger share of revenue. The trend data is unavailable: year-over-year change is N/A, quarter-over-quarter change is N/A, and the last eight quarters show no direction. With a low level and no observable trend, the margin offers no clear momentum signal, leaving the main risk as persistent cost pressure relative to the sector. This metric neither supports nor contradicts the overall NEUTRAL verdict, as the current level justifies caution but the absence of trend data prevents a stronger conclusion.
