We have studied the electronic structure of the Fe and Ni triangular lattices in ${\text{FeGa}}_{2}{\text{S}}_{4}$, ${\text{Fe}}_{2}{\text{Ga}}_{2}{\text{S}}_{5}$, and ${\text{NiGa}}_{2}{\text{S}}_{4}$ using photoemission spectroscopy measurements, configuration-interaction calculations on ${\text{FeS}}_{6}$ and ${\text{NiS}}_{6}$ cluster models, and unrestricted Hartree-Fock calculations on ${\text{FeS}}_{2}$ and ${\text{NiS}}_{2}$ triangular lattices. The cluster-model analysis of the $\text{Fe}\text{ }2p$ core-level spectra shows that the $\text{S}\text{ }3p$ to $\text{Fe}\text{ }3d$ charge-transfer energy $\ensuremath{\Delta}$ is $\ensuremath{\sim}2.5\text{ }\text{eV}$ in ${\text{FeGa}}_{2}{\text{S}}_{4}$ and ${\text{Fe}}_{2}{\text{Ga}}_{2}{\text{S}}_{5}$, in contrast to the small $\ensuremath{\Delta}$ $(\ensuremath{\sim}\ensuremath{-}1\text{ }\text{eV})$ found in ${\text{NiGa}}_{2}{\text{S}}_{4}$. The relationship between the $\ensuremath{\Delta}$ value and the superexchange pathway has been examined using the unrestricted Hartree-Fock calculations. In ${\text{FeGa}}_{2}{\text{S}}_{4}$ and ${\text{Fe}}_{2}{\text{Ga}}_{2}{\text{S}}_{5}$, the superexchange interaction between the nearest-neighbor sites is dominant while that between the third-nearest-neighbor sites is enhanced in ${\text{NiGa}}_{2}{\text{S}}_{4}$.
