Additional Third Quarter of Fiscal Year 2017 Results and 2017 Outlook
Earnings per Share
The company raised its reported diluted earnings per share guidance for fiscal year 2017 to be in the range of $2.18 to $2.22.
Adjusted to exclude the second quarter benefit from insurance proceeds related to the Fishkill fire of about $0.10, the company now
expects adjusted diluted earnings per share to be in the range of $2.08 to $2.12. Please see the reconciliation of adjusted diluted
earnings per share, a non-GAAP financial measure, from the GAAP financial measure in the table at the end of this press
release.
The company noted that foreign currency fluctuations negatively impacted earnings per share for the third quarter of fiscal year
2017 by an estimated $0.02, or about 3 percentage points of earnings per share growth compared with the adjusted earnings per share
for the third quarter of fiscal year 2016.1
Comparable Sales
The company now expects comparable sales for fiscal year 2017 to be up low-single-digits.
Operating Expenses
Third quarter fiscal year 2017 operating expenses were $1.15 billion compared with $1.10 billion last year. Excluding
restructuring costs of $36 million recorded in the third quarter of fiscal year 2016, third quarter fiscal year 2017 operating
expenses were up about $80 million when compared with last year on an adjusted basis. The company noted the increase in adjusted
operating expenses was primarily driven by an increase in marketing and payroll, largely due to bonus, as well as investments in
digital and customer initiatives that support the company’s balanced growth strategy. Please see the reconciliation of adjusted
operating expenses, a non-GAAP financial measure, from the GAAP financial measure in the tables at the end of this press
release.
Operating Margin
The company’s operating margin for the third quarter of fiscal year 2017 was 9.8 percent compared with 10.2 percent last year or
11.0 percent last year on an adjusted basis. Please see the reconciliation of adjusted operating margin, a non-GAAP financial
measure, from the GAAP financial measure in the tables at the end of this press release.
Effective Tax Rate
The effective tax rate was 37.1 percent for the third quarter of fiscal year 2017.
The company now expects its fiscal year 2017 effective tax rate to be about 38 percent, primarily due to a more favorable tax
impact of foreign operations compared with fiscal year 2016.
Inventory
At the end of the third quarter of fiscal year 2017, total inventory was up 3 percent year over year.
The company noted the increase is primarily due to the timing of in-transit inventory and the negative impact of foreign
exchange.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The company ended the third quarter of fiscal year 2017 with $1.35 billion in cash and cash equivalents. Year-to-date free cash
flow, defined as net cash provided by operating activities less purchases of property and equipment, net of insurance proceeds
related to loss of property and equipment, was $197 million, reflecting the timing of lease payments and a larger increase in
inventory from the beginning of the fiscal year to the end of the quarter when compared to the same period in fiscal year 2016.
Please see the reconciliation of free cash flow, a non-GAAP financial measure, from the GAAP financial measure in the tables at the
end of this press release.
Cash Distribution
During the quarter, Gap Inc. repurchased 3.8 million shares for about $100 million and ended the third quarter of fiscal year
2017 with 389 million shares outstanding.
The company expects to spend about $100 million on share repurchases in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2017.
The company paid a dividend of $0.23 per share during the third quarter of fiscal year 2017. In addition, on November 9, 2017,
the company announced that its board of directors authorized a fourth quarter dividend of $0.23 per share.
Capital Expenditures
Fiscal year-to-date 2017 capital expenditures were $463 million. The company continues to expect capital spending to be
approximately $625 million for fiscal year 2017, excluding costs associated with the rebuilding of the company’s Fishkill, New York
distribution center campus and related supply chain spend, which is now estimated to be about $175 million. The company noted the
majority of these costs are expected to be covered by insurance proceeds. Please see the reconciliation of adjusted capital
expenditures, a non-GAAP financial measure, from the GAAP financial measure in the tables at the end of this press release.
Real Estate
The company ended the third quarter of fiscal year 2017 with 3,639 store locations in 46 countries, of which 3,193 were
company-operated.
The company now expects to close about 30 company-operated stores, net of openings and repositions.

Because these forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, there are important factors that could cause the
company’s actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. These factors include, without
limitation, the following risks, any of which could have an adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of
operations, and reputation: the risk that additional information may arise during the company’s close process or as a result of
subsequent events that would require the company to make adjustments to the unaudited financial information; the risk that the
company or its franchisees will be unsuccessful in gauging apparel trends and changing consumer preferences; the highly competitive
nature of the company’s business in the United States and internationally; the risk of failure to maintain, enhance and protect the
company’s brand image; the risk of failure to attract and retain key personnel, or effectively manage succession; the risk that
trade matters could increase the cost or reduce the supply of apparel available to the company; the risk of changes in the
regulatory or administrative landscape; the risk that the company’s investments in omni-channel shopping initiatives may not
deliver the results the company anticipates; the risk if the company is unable to manage its inventory effectively; the risk that
the company is subject to data or other security breaches that may result in increased costs, violations of law, significant legal
and financial exposure, and a loss of confidence in the company’s security measures; the risk of foreign currency exchange rate
fluctuations; the risks to the company’s business, including its costs and supply chain, associated with global sourcing and
manufacturing; the risk of changes in global economic conditions or consumer spending patterns; the risks to the company’s efforts
to expand internationally, including its ability to operate under a global brand structure and operating in regions where it has
less experience; the risks to the company’s reputation or operations associated with importing merchandise from foreign countries,
including failure of the company’s vendors to adhere to its Code of Vendor Conduct; the risk that the company’s franchisees’
operation of franchise stores is not directly within the company’s control and could impair the value of its brands; the risk that
the company or its franchisees will be unsuccessful in identifying, negotiating, and securing new store locations and renewing,
modifying, or terminating leases for existing store locations effectively; the risk that comparable sales and margins will
experience fluctuations; the risk that changes in the company’s credit profile or deterioration in market conditions may limit the
company’s access to the capital markets; the risk that updates or changes to the company’s information technology systems may
disrupt its operations; the risk of natural disasters, public health crises, political crises, or other catastrophic events; the
risk of reductions in income and cash flow from our marketing and servicing arrangement related to our private label and co-branded
credit cards; the risk that the adoption of new accounting pronouncements will impact future results; the risk that the company
does not repurchase some or all of the shares it anticipates purchasing pursuant to its repurchase program; and the risk that the
company will not be successful in defending various proceedings, lawsuits, disputes, claims, and audits.
Additional information regarding factors that could cause results to differ can be found in the company’s Annual Report on Form
10-K for the fiscal year ended January 28, 2017, as well as the company’s subsequent filings with the Securities and Exchange
Commission.

1 In estimating the earnings per share impact from foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations, the company estimates
current gross margins using the appropriate prior year rates (including the impact of merchandise-related hedges), translates
current period foreign earnings at prior year rates, and excludes the year-over-year earnings impact of balance sheet remeasurement
and gains or losses from non-merchandise-related foreign currency hedges. This is done in order to enhance the visibility of
business results excluding the direct impact of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations.

| NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES |
| UNAUDITED |
| |
| FREE CASH FLOW |
| |
| Free cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure. We believe free cash
flow is an important metric because it represents a measure of how much cash a company has available for discretionary and
non-discretionary items after the deduction of capital expenditures, net of insurance proceeds related to loss on property and
equipment, as we require regular capital expenditures to build and maintain stores and purchase new equipment to improve our
business. We use this metric internally, as we believe our sustained ability to generate free cash flow is an important driver
of value creation. However, this non-GAAP financial measure is not intended to supersede or replace our GAAP results. |

| ADJUSTED INCOME STATEMENT METRICS FOR THE THIRD
QUARTER OF FISCAL YEAR 2016 |
| |
| The following adjusted income statement metrics are non-GAAP financial
measures. These measures are provided to enhance visibility into the company's underlying results for the period excluding the
impact of restructuring activities in the third quarter of fiscal year 2016. Management believes the adjusted metrics are
useful for the assessment of ongoing operations as we believe the adjusted items are not indicative of our ongoing operations
due to the nature of the adjustments, and management believes that the presentation of adjusted financial information provides
additional information to investors to facilitate the comparison of results against prior years. However, these non-GAAP
financial measures are not intended to supersede or replace the GAAP measures. |

| ADJUSTED NET INCOME FOR THE THIRD QUARTER OF FISCAL YEAR 2016 |
| |
| Adjusted net income is a non-GAAP financial measure. Adjusted net income
is provided to enhance visibility into the company's underlying results for the periods excluding the impact of restructuring
activities in the third quarter of fiscal year 2016. Management believes the adjusted metrics are useful for the assessment of
ongoing operations as we believe the adjusted items are not indicative of our ongoing operations due to the nature of the
adjustments, and management believes that the presentation of adjusted financial information provides additional information to
investors to facilitate the comparison of results against prior years. Additionally, management uses adjusted net income as a
key performance measure for the purposes of evaluating performance internally. However, this non-GAAP financial measure is not
intended to supersede or replace the GAAP measure. |
