NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

Note 1. Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

In the opinion of The Gap, Inc. (the “Company,” “we,” and “our”) management, the accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contain all normal and recurring adjustments (except as otherwise disclosed) considered necessary to present fairly our financial position, results of operations, comprehensive income (loss), stockholders' equity, and cash flows as of ~~July 30,~~October 29, 2022 and ~~July 31,~~October 30, 2021 and for all periods presented. The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of January 29, 2022 has been derived from our audited financial statements.

The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, certain information and disclosures normally included in the notes to the annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) have been omitted from these interim financial statements, although the Company believes that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information not misleading. We suggest that you read these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 29, 2022.

The results of operations for the 13 and 2639 weeks ended ~~July 30,~~October 29, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results that may be expected for the 52-week period ending January 28, 2023.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Additionally, these estimates and assumptions may change as a result of the impact of global economic conditions such as the uncertainty regarding global inflationary pressures, the coronavirus ("COVID-19") pandemic, and the Russia-Ukraine ~~crisis, and global inflationary pressures.~~crisis. We will continue to consider the impact of the global economic conditions on the assumptions and estimates used when preparing these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements including inventory valuation, income taxes and valuation allowances, sales return allowances, and the impairment of long-lived store assets and operating lease assets. If the global economic conditions worsen beyond what is currently estimated by management, such future changes may have an adverse impact on the Company's results of operations and financial position.

Restricted Cash

As of ~~July 30,~~October 29, 2022, restricted cash primarily included consideration that serves as collateral for certain obligations occurring in the normal course of business and our insurance obligations. The following table provides a reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash reported within our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets to the total shown on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows:

Accounting Pronouncements

~~The~~Except as noted below, the Company has considered all recent accounting pronouncements and concluded that there are no recent accounting pronouncements that may have a material impact on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and disclosures, based on current information.

ASU No. 2022-04, Disclosure of Supplier Finance Program Obligations

In September 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued accounting standards update ("ASU") No. 2022-04, Disclosure of Supplier Finance Program Obligations. The ASU is intended to enhance the transparency of the use of supplier finance programs by requiring that the buyers in those programs provide additional disclosures about the program’s nature and potential magnitude, including a rollforward of the obligations and activity during the period. The ASU is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2022, except for the amendment on rollforward information, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023. The amendments in the update should be applied retrospectively, except for the amendment on rollforward information, which should be applied prospectively. We are currently assessing the impact of this ASU on our Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures.

For the 2639 weeks ended ~~July 30,~~October 29, 2022, the opening balance of deferred revenue for these obligations was $345 million, of which ~~$185~~$212 million was recognized as revenue during the period. The closing balance of deferred revenue for these obligations was ~~$321~~$323 million as of ~~July 30,~~October 29, 2022.

For the 13 weeks ended ~~July 31,~~October 30, 2021, the opening balance of deferred revenue for these obligations was ~~$222~~$239 million, of which ~~$81~~$98 million was recognized as revenue during the period. For the 2639 weeks ended ~~July 31,~~October 30, 2021, the opening balance of deferred revenue for these obligations was $231 million, of which ~~$125~~$145 million was recognized as revenue during the period. The closing balance of deferred revenue for these obligations was ~~$239~~$270 million as of ~~July 31,~~October 30, 2021.

The increase in the ~~deferred revenue balance as of July 30, 2022 and the~~ revenue recognition during the ~~13 and 26~~39 weeks ended ~~July 30,~~October 29, 2022 is primarily due to our new integrated loyalty program across the U.S. and Puerto Rico, which launched in July 2021 and allows for faster accumulation and redemption of rewards.

InOn September 27, 2021, we completed the issuance of $1.5 billion aggregate principal amount of 3.625 percent senior notes due 2029 (“2029 Notes”) and 3.875 percent senior notes due 2031 (“2031 Notes”) (the 2029 Notes and the 2031 Notes, collectively, the “Senior Notes”). As of ~~July 30,~~October 29, 2022, the aggregate estimated fair value of the Senior Notes was ~~$1.10~~$1.06 billion and was based on the quoted market prices for each of the Senior Notes (level 1 inputs) as of the last business day of the fiscal quarter. The aggregate principal amount of the Senior Notes is recorded in long-term debt on the Condensed Consolidated Balance ~~Sheet,~~Sheets, net of the unamortized debt issuance cost.

On May 7, 2020, we entered into a senior secured asset-based revolving credit agreement (the "ABL Facility"), which was previously scheduled to expire in May 2023. On July 13, 2022, we entered into an amendment and restatement of the ABL Facility. Among other changes, the amendment and restatement extended the maturity of the ABL Facility to July 2027, increased the borrowing capacity from $1.8675 billion to $2.2 billion, modified the reference rate from the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR"), and reduced the applicable interest rate margin. Following the amendment and restatement, the ABL Facility generally bears interest at a per annum rate based on SOFR (subject to a zero floor) plus a margin, depending on borrowing base availability. The ABL Facility is available for working capital, capital expenditures, and other general corporate purposes.

As of ~~July 30,~~October 29, 2022, the Company's outstanding borrowing under the ABL Facility was $350 million. The variable interest rate on the drawn amount is adjusted SOFR (calculated to include a 0.10% credit adjustment spread) plus a margin of 1.25%. The borrowing was recorded in long-term liabilities on ~~our~~the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of ~~July 30,~~October 29, 2022.

We also have the ability to issue letters of credit on our ABL Facility. As of ~~July 30,~~October 29, 2022, we had $51 million in standby letters of credit issued under the ABL Facility.

The ABL Facility is secured by specified U.S. and Canadian assets, including a first lien on inventory, certain receivables, and related assets. The ABL Facility contains customary covenants restricting the Company's activities, as well as those of its subsidiaries, including limitations on the ability to sell assets, engage in mergers or other fundamental changes, enter into capital leases or certain leases not in the ordinary course of business, enter into transactions involving related parties or derivatives, incur or prepay indebtedness, grant liens or negative pledges on its assets, make loans or other investments, pay dividends or repurchase stock or other securities, guarantee third-party obligations, engage in sale and lease-back transactions and make changes in its corporate structure. There are exceptions to these covenants, and some are only applicable when unused availability falls below specified thresholds. In addition, the ABL Facility includes, as a financial covenant, a springing fixed charge coverage ratio which arises when availability falls below a specified threshold.

We also maintain multiple agreements with third parties that make unsecured revolving credit facilities available for our operations in foreign locations (the “Foreign Facilities”). The Foreign Facilities are uncommitted and had a total capacity of ~~$47~~$44 million as of ~~July 30,~~October 29, 2022. As of ~~July 30,~~October 29, 2022, there were 0no borrowings under the Foreign Facilities. There were $9$7 million in bank guarantees issued and outstanding primarily related to store leases under the Foreign Facilities as of ~~July 30,~~October 29, 2022.

Note 4. Fair Value Measurements

The Company measures certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value on a recurring basis, including derivatives and available-for-sale debt securities. The Company categorizes financial assets and liabilities recorded at fair value based upon a three-level hierarchy that considers the related valuation techniques.

There were 0no material purchases, sales, issuances, or settlements related to recurring level 3 measurements for the 13 and 2639 weeks ended ~~July 30,~~October 29, 2022 or ~~July 31,~~October 30, 2021. There were no transfers of financial assets or liabilities into or out of level 1, level 2, and level 3 for the 13 and 2639 weeks ended ~~July 30,~~October 29, 2022 or ~~July 31,~~October 30, 2021.

We have highly liquid fixed and variable income investments classified as cash equivalents. With the exception of our available-for-sale investments noted below, we value these investments at their original purchase prices plus interest that has accrued at the stated rate. Our cash equivalents are placed primarily in time deposits.

1211

Our available-for-sale securities are comprised of investments in debt securities and are recorded in both short-term investments and cash and cash equivalents on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. These securities are recorded at fair value using market prices. As of ~~July 30,~~October 29, 2022 and January 29, 2022, the Company held no available-for-sale debt securities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of ~~July 31,~~October 30, 2021, the Company held ~~$337~~$275 million of available-for-sale debt securities with maturity dates greater than three months and less than two years within short-term investments on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. In addition, as of ~~July 31,~~October 30, 2021, the Company held ~~$363~~$125 million of available-for-sale debt securities with maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase within cash and cash equivalents on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. Unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale debt securities included within accumulated other comprehensive income were not material as of ~~July 31,~~October 30, 2021.

The Company regularly reviews any available-for-sale debt securities for other-than-temporary impairment. For the 13 and 2639 weeks ended ~~July 31,~~October 30, 2021, the Company did not consider any of its securities to be other-than-temporarily impaired and, accordingly, did not recognize any impairment loss.

Derivative financial instruments primarily include foreign exchange forward contracts. The fair value of the Company’s derivative financial instruments is determined using pricing models based on current market rates. See Note 6 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for information regarding currencies hedged against the U.S. dollar.

We maintain the Gap, Inc. Deferred Compensation Plan (“DCP”), which allows eligible employees to defer base compensation and bonus up to a maximum percentage, and non-employee directors to defer receipt of a portion of their Board fees. Plan investments are directed by participants and are recorded at market value and designated for the DCP. The fair value of the Company’s DCP assets is determined based on quoted market prices, and the assets are recorded in other long-term assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Nonfinancial Assets

We review the carrying amount of long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The fair value of the long-lived assets is determined using level 3 inputs and based on discounted future cash flows of the asset or asset group using a discount rate commensurate with the risk. The asset group is defined as the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are available and largely independent of the cash flows of other groups of assets, which for our retail stores is at the store level.

During the 39 weeks ended October 29, 2022, the Company recorded impairment of store assets of $10 million and impairment of operating lease assets of $16 million. The impairment of the store assets reduced the carrying amount of the applicable long-lived assets of $12 million to their estimated fair value of $2 million. The impairment of operating lease assets reduced the carrying amount of the applicable long-lived assets of $62 million to their estimated fair value of $46 million. The impairment charges were recorded in operating expenses on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.

During the 39 weeks ended October 30, 2021, the Company recorded impairment of operating lease assets of $6 million. The impairment of the operating lease assets reduced the carrying amount of the applicable long-lived assets of $16 million to their estimated fair value of $10 million. The impairment charges were recorded in operating expenses on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. There were no material impairment charges recorded for ~~long-lived~~store assets during the ~~13 and 26~~39 weeks ended ~~July~~October 30, ~~2022 or July 31,~~ 2021.

We review the carrying amount of goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment annually and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that the carrying amount may not be recoverable.

There were no impairment charges recorded for goodwill or other indefinite-lived intangible assets for the 13 and 2639 weeks ended ~~July 30,~~October 29, 2022 or ~~July 31,~~October 30, 2021.

Note 5. Income Taxes

The effective income tax rate was negative ~~2.1~~67.9 percent for the 13 weeks ended ~~July 30,~~October 29, 2022, compared with ~~28.1~~29.3 percent for the 13 weeks ended ~~July 31, 2021. The effective income tax rate was 20.1 percent for the 26 weeks ended July~~October 30, ~~2022, compared with 22.3 percent for the 26 weeks ended July 31,~~ 2021. The decrease in the effective tax rate for the 13 ~~and 26~~ weeks ended ~~July 30,~~October 29, 2022 compared with the 13 ~~and 26~~ weeks ended ~~July 31,~~October 30, 2021 is primarily due to changes in ~~valuation allowances~~the amount and ~~the~~ jurisdictional mix of pre-tax ~~earnings.~~earnings and the cumulative impact of a change in the Company’s estimated annual effective tax rate.

The effective income tax rate was 174.0 percent for the 39 weeks ended October 29, 2022, compared with 17.8 percent for the 39 weeks ended October 30, 2021. The increase in the effective tax rate for the 39 weeks ended October 29, 2022 compared with the 39 weeks ended October 30, 2021 is primarily due to changes in the amount and jurisdictional mix of pre-tax earnings and the cumulative impact of a change in the Company’s estimated annual effective tax rate.

Note 6. Derivative Financial Instruments

We operate in foreign countries, which exposes us to market risk associated with foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. We use derivative financial instruments to manage our exposure to foreign currency exchange rate risk and do not enter into derivative financial contracts for trading purposes. Consistent with our risk management guidelines, we hedge a portion of our transactions related to merchandise purchases for foreign operations and certain intercompany transactions using foreign exchange forward contracts. These contracts are entered into with large, reputable financial institutions that are monitored for counterparty risk. The currencies hedged against changes in the U.S. dollar are the Canadian dollar, ~~British pound,~~ Japanese yen, ~~Mexican peso,~~ New Taiwan dollar, Mexican peso, British pound, and Euro. Cash flows from derivative financial instruments are classified as cash flows from operating activities on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

Derivative financial instruments are recorded at fair value on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as other current assets, other long-term assets, accrued expenses and other current liabilities, or other long-term liabilities.

Cash Flow Hedges

We designate foreign exchange forward contracts used to hedge forecasted merchandise purchases and related costs denominated in U.S. dollars made by our international subsidiaries whose functional currencies are their local currencies as cash flow hedges. The foreign exchange forward contracts entered into to hedge forecasted merchandise purchases and related costs generally have terms of 12 to 24 months. The effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative financial instruments is reported as a component of other comprehensive income (loss) and is recognized into net income (loss) during the period in which the underlying transaction impacts the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Other Derivatives Not Designated as Hedging Instruments

We use foreign exchange forward contracts to hedge our market risk exposure associated with foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations for certain intercompany balances denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of the entity with the intercompany balance. The gain or loss on the derivative financial instruments that represent economic hedges, as well as the remeasurement impact of the underlying intercompany balances, is recorded in operating expenses on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations in the same period and generally offset each other.

Substantially all of the unrealized gains and losses from designated cash flow hedges as of ~~July 30,~~October 29, 2022 will be recognized in income (loss) within the next 12 months at the then-current values, which may differ from the fair values as of ~~July 30,~~October 29, 2022 shown above.

Our foreign exchange forward contracts are subject to master netting arrangements with each of our counterparties and such arrangements are enforceable in the event of default or early termination of the contract. We do not elect to offset the fair values of our derivative financial instruments on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, and as such, the fair values shown above represent gross amounts. The amounts subject to enforceable master netting arrangements were not material for all periods presented.

Note 9. Commitments and Contingencies

We are a party to a variety of contractual agreements under which we may be obligated to indemnify the other party for certain matters. These contracts primarily relate to our commercial contracts, operating leases, trademarks, intellectual property, financial agreements, and various other agreements. Under these contracts, we may provide certain routine indemnifications relating to representations and warranties (e.g., ownership of assets, environmental or tax indemnifications), or personal injury matters. The terms of these indemnifications range in duration and may not be explicitly defined. Generally, the maximum obligation under such indemnifications is not explicitly stated, and as a result, the overall amount of these obligations cannot be reasonably estimated. Historically, we have not made significant payments for these indemnifications. We believe that if we were to incur a loss in any of these matters, the loss would not have a material effect on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements taken as a whole.

As a multinational company, we are subject to various proceedings, lawsuits, disputes, and claims ("Actions") arising in the ordinary course of our business. Many of these Actions raise complex factual and legal issues and are subject to uncertainties. As of ~~July 30,~~October 29, 2022, Actions filed against us included commercial, intellectual property, customer, employment, securities, and data privacy claims, including class action lawsuits. The plaintiffs in some Actions seek unspecified damages or injunctive relief, or both. Actions are in various procedural stages and some are covered in part by insurance. As of ~~July 30,~~October 29, 2022, January 29, 2022, and ~~July 31,~~October 30, 2021, we recorded a liability for an estimated loss if the outcome of an Action is expected to result in a loss that is considered probable and reasonably estimable. The liability recorded was not material for any individual Action or in total for all periods presented. Subsequent to ~~July 30,~~October 29, 2022, and through the filing date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, no information has become available that indicates a change is required that would be material to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements taken as a whole.

We cannot predict with assurance the outcome of Actions brought against us. However, we do not believe that the outcome of any current Action would have a material effect on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements taken as a whole.

Note 10. Segment Information

We identify our operating segments according to how our business activities are managed and evaluated. As of ~~July 30,~~October 29, 2022, our operating segments included: Old Navy Global, Gap Global, Banana Republic Global, and Athleta Global. Each operating segment has a brand president who is responsible for various geographies and channels. Each of our brands serves customer demand through stores and online channels, leveraging our omni-channel capabilities that allow customers to shop seamlessly across all of our brands. We have determined that each of our operating segments share similar economic and other qualitative characteristics, and therefore the results of our operating segments are aggregated into 1one reportable segment as of ~~July 30,~~October 29, 2022. We continually monitor and review our segment reporting structure in accordance with authoritative guidance to determine whether any changes have occurred that would impact our reportable segments.

See Note 2 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for disaggregation of revenue for stores and online and by brand and region.

OVERVIEW

Financial results for the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal 2022 are as follows:

•Net sales for the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal 2022 ~~decreased 8~~increased 2 percent compared with the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal 2021.

•Online sales for the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal 2022 ~~decreased 6~~increased 5 percent compared with the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal 2021 and store sales for the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal 2022 ~~decreased 10~~increased 1 percent compared with the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal 2021.

•Gross profit for the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal 2022 was ~~$1.33~~$1.51 billion compared with ~~$1.82~~$1.66 billion for the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal 2021. Gross margin for the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal 2022 was ~~34.5~~37.4 percent compared with ~~43.3~~42.1 percent for the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal 2021.

•Operating ~~loss~~income for the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal 2022 was ~~$(28)~~$186 million compared with operating income of ~~$409~~$153 million for the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal 2021.

•Merchandise inventory as of the third quarter of fiscal 2022 increased 12 percent compared with the third quarter of fiscal 2021.

During the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal 2022 we made progress on right-sizing our ~~quarterly results~~inventory levels and rebalancing our assortment; however our gross margins were ~~negatively~~ impacted by macro-economic challenges including global supply chain disruptions and global inflationary pressures, as well as continued size and assortment imbalances leading to product acceptance issues and higherhigh levels of promotional ~~activity, largely~~activity. We have reduced inventory buys, primarily at Old ~~Navy.~~Navy Global, ~~supply chain disruptions continued~~and we continue to affect our quarterly results due to difficulty managing the timing of seasonal inventory flows and an inability to quickly react to changing consumer preferences. As a result of the ongoing inventory delays and shifting consumer preferences, inventory levels are higher with an increase inhave select seasonal product being stored at distribution centers for expected introduction into the market through fiscal 2023.

The Company has continued to take steps to optimize profitability and cash flow to drive long-term improvements across our business. These steps include reducing open and existing corporate roles, renegotiating our advertising agency contracts, reducing technology operating costs, and rationalizing digital investments. The Company did not incur material charges in connection with these steps during the ~~second half~~third quarter of fiscal ~~2022 and first half of fiscal 2023.~~2022.

~~Beginning in~~During the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal 2022, ~~the~~the Company ~~has begun taking several actions~~ended our Yeezy Gap contract and recorded pre-tax impairment costs of $53 million, primarily related to improve profitability and cash flow in the near term including reducing operating expenses and capital expenditures, which are expected to continue in the second half of fiscal 2022. These actions also include rebalancing our inventory, ~~assortments to better meet consumer needs by reducing future receipts~~ ~~and impairingunproductive inventory. As~~as a result of ~~our inventory rebalancing efforts,~~ the ~~Company recorded pre-tax inventory impairment costs of $58 million during the second quarter of fiscal 2022, primarily related to seasonal product and extended size product at Old Navy.~~decision. The costs were recorded in ~~cost~~costs of goods sold and occupancy expenses inon the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. ~~We expect that clearing this inventory at Old Navy will enable us to drive an improved customer experience and better showcase the merchandise that resonates most with our customer.~~

We remain focused on our key initiatives for our Power Plan strategy. Each of our purpose-led, lifestyle brands are finding new and relevant ways to expand customer reach. In the second quarter of fiscal 2022, we have continued to expand into new lifestyle categories through ongoing product collaborations for Athleta and Gap. Additionally, we launched a new long-term credit card program with Barclays and Mastercard which we expect to help us grow and deepen our connections with our loyalty customers.

~~As part of the Power Plan strategy, the~~The Company is also continuing to reduce the number of Gap and Banana Republic stores in North America by approximately 350 stores from the beginning of fiscal 2020 to the end of fiscal 2023. As of ~~July 30,~~October 29, 2022, we have closed, net of openings, ~~269~~279 Gap and Banana Republic stores in North America since the beginning of fiscal 2020.

Additionally, we completed the transition of our United Kingdom and Ireland online operations to a franchise partner on August 10, 2022. We also completed the transition of our Gap France operations and Gap Italy operations to franchise partners on October 1, 2021 and February 1, 2022, respectively. As our European partnership model transition is now complete, during the third quarter of fiscal 2022, we sold the distribution center in Rugby, England for $125 million and recorded a pre-tax gain on sale of $83 million within operating expenses on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.

~~Additionally,~~On August 1, 2022, we believe strategic transformations of our business model will streamline our operations by using strong local partnerships to grow our brands and amplify our reach. As part of the Company's joint venture with Next Plc ("Next"), the first Gap branded shop-in-shop opened in the United Kingdom in fiscal 2022, and the joint venture is planning to launch additional shop-in-shops in the United Kingdom throughout the second half of fiscal 2022. During the second quarter of fiscal 2022, the Company worked to migrate Gap’s United Kingdom and Ireland e-commerce business to the Next Total Platform, withcompleted the transition ~~completed on August 10, 2022. During the second quarter~~ of ~~fiscal 2022, we received regulatory approvals to transition~~ our Old Navy Mexico operations to a third party, Grupo Axo, to operate Old Navy Mexico stores as a franchise partner. As a result of this transaction, the Company recognized a pre-tax loss of $35 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2022 when the assets were reclassified as held for sale. The pre-tax loss was recognized within operating expenses on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of ~~Operations during the 13 weeks ended July 30, 2022.~~ Operations.

~~On July 11, 2022, Sonia Syngal stepped down~~in-market website as ~~President~~a franchise partner, subject to regulatory approvals and Chief Executive Officer and resigned from the Company's Board. On the same date, Bob L. Martin, the Executive Chair of the Board, began serving as President and Chief Executive Officer on an interim basis.closing conditions.

We remain focused on the following strategic priorities in the near term:

•driving improved sales through assortment improvements and a balanced and relevant category mix;

•reducing our fixed cost structure to improve profitability and manage through current macro-economic challenges;

•leveraging our scale to navigate disruptions and constraints in the global supply chain;

•managing inventory to support a healthy merchandise margin;

•rationalizing the Gap and Banana Republic store fleet;

•prioritizing asset-light growth through licensing, online, and franchise partnerships globally;

•creating product that offers value to our customers through a combination of fit, quality, brand, and price;

•optimizing investments in our four purpose-led lifestyle brands to drive relevance and gain market share;

•growing our online business;

•attracting and retaining strong talent in our businesses and functions; and

•continuing to integrate social and environmental sustainability into business practices to support long-term growth.

We believe focusing on these priorities in the near term will enable the Company to execute against its Power Plan strategy, including leveraging:

•The Power of its Brands, reflected by the Company’s four purpose-led, lifestyle brands: Old Navy, Gap, Banana Republic, and Athleta;

•The Power of its Portfolio, which enables growth synergies across key customer categories; and

•The Power of its Platform, which leverages the Company’s powerful platform to both enable growth, such as through competitive omni-channel capabilities, as well as cost synergies, fueled by its scaled operations.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net Sales

See Note 2 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q, for net sales disaggregation.

Comparable Sales ("Comp Sales")

Comp Sales include the results of Company-operated stores and sales through online channels. The calculation of Gap Inc. Comp Sales excludes the results of our franchise business. Gap Inc. Comp Sales included the results of Janie and Jack and Intermix until the divestitures of those brands in fiscal 2021.

A store is included in the Comp Sales calculations when it has been open and operated by the Company for at least one year and the selling square footage has not changed by 15 percent or more within the past year. A store is included in the Comp Sales calculations on the first day it has comparable prior year sales. Stores in which the selling square footage has changed by 15 percent or more as a result of a remodel, expansion, or reduction are excluded from the Comp Sales calculations until the first day they have comparable prior year sales.

A store is considered non-comparable ("Non-comp") when it has been open and operated by the Company for less than one year or has changed its selling square footage by 15 percent or more within the past year.

A store is considered "Closed" if it is temporarily closed for three or more full consecutive days or it is permanently closed. When a temporarily closed store reopens, the store will be placed in the Comp/Non-comp status it was in prior to its closure. If a store was in Closed status for three or more days in the prior year, the store will be in Non-comp status for the same days the following year.

Current year foreign exchange rates are applied to both current year and prior year Comp Sales to achieve a consistent basis for comparison.

The percentage change in Comp Sales by global brand and for The Gap, Inc., as compared with the preceding year, is as follows:

Net Sales

Our net sales for the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal 2022 ~~decreased $354~~increased $96 million, or 82 percent, compared with the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal 2021, in part due to timing of franchise sales. This was partially offset by strategic store closures, as well as an unfavorable impact of foreign exchange of $50 million. The foreign exchange impact is the translation impact if net sales for the third quarter of fiscal 2021 were translated at exchange rates applicable during the third quarter of fiscal 2022.

Our net sales for the first three quarters of fiscal 2022 decreased $772 million, or 6 percent, compared with the first three quarters of fiscal 2021, driven primarily by Old Navy Global as a result of inventory delays related to ~~continued~~ global supply chain disruptions, as well as ~~continued~~ size and assortment ~~imbalances. The decrease~~imbalances in net sales was also driven by strategic store closures, as well as an unfavorable impact of foreign exchange of $43 million. The foreign exchange impact is the translation impact if net sales for the second quarter of fiscal 2021 were translated at exchange rates applicable during the second quarter of fiscal 2022. The decrease in net sales was partially offset by the positive impact of growth in Banana Republic Global net sales.

~~Our net sales for~~ the first half of fiscal 2022 decreased $868 million, or 11 percent, compared with the first half of fiscal 2021, driven primarily by Old Navy Global as a result of inventory delays related to continued global supply chain disruptions, as well as continued size and assortment imbalances.2022. The decrease in net sales was also driven by strategic store closures and the divestitures of the Janie and Jack and Intermix brands last year, as well as an unfavorable impact of foreign exchange of ~~$51~~$101 million. The foreign exchange impact is the translation impact if net sales for the first ~~half~~three quarters of fiscal 2021 were translated at exchange rates applicable during the first ~~half~~three quarters of fiscal 2022. The decrease in net sales was partially offset by the positive impact of growth in Banana Republic Global net sales.

The decrease in the effective tax rate ~~decreased~~ for the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal 2022 compared with the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal 2021 is primarily due to changes in the amount and jurisdictional mix of pre-tax earnings and the cumulative impact of a change in the Company’s estimated annual effective tax rate.

The increase in the effective tax rate for the first ~~half~~three quarters of fiscal 2022 compared with the first ~~half~~three quarters of fiscal 2021 is primarily due to changes in ~~valuation allowances~~the amount and ~~the~~ jurisdictional mix of pre-tax earnings and the cumulative impact of a change in the Company’s estimated annual effective tax rate.

We expect the income tax benefit from the third quarter of fiscal 2022 to be offset by significant tax expense in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 as a result of fluctuations in quarterly pre-tax earnings.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

We are also able to supplement near-term liquidity, if necessary, with our ABL Facility or other available market instruments. On July 13, 2022, we entered into an amendment and restatement of the ABL Facility. Among other changes, the amended and restated agreement extended the maturity of the ABL Facility to July 2027, increased the borrowing capacity, modified the reference rate from LIBOR to SOFR, and reduced the applicable interest rate margin. As of ~~July 30,~~October 29, 2022, the Company's outstanding borrowing under the ABL Facility was $350 million. See Note 3 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q, for disclosures on the ABL Facility.

Our largest source of operating cash flows is cash collections from the sale of our merchandise. Our primary uses of cash include merchandise inventory purchases, lease and occupancy costs, personnel-related expenses, purchases of property and equipment, ~~air freight and~~ shipping costs, and payment of taxes. As our business typically follows a seasonal pattern, with sales peaking during the end-of-year holiday period, we fund inventory expenditures during normal and peak periods through cash flows from operating activities and available cash. Additionally, we have select seasonal product being stored at distribution centers for expected introduction into the market ~~in the second half of fiscal 2022and first half of~~through fiscal 2023, which will impact inventory expenditures in future periods. The seasonality of our operations, in addition to the impact of global economic conditions such as the uncertainty surrounding global inflationary pressures, the COVID-19 pandemic, and the Russia-Ukraine crisis, ~~and global inflationary pressures,~~ may lead to significant fluctuations in certain asset and liability accounts as well as cash inflows and outflows between fiscal year-end and subsequent interim periods.

We believe our existing balances of cash and cash equivalents, along with our cash flows from operations, and instruments mentioned above, provide sufficient funds for our business operations as well as capital expenditures, dividends, and other liquidity requirements associated with our business operations over the next 12 months and beyond.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

Net cash used for operating activities was ~~$207~~$112 million during the first ~~half~~three quarters of fiscal 2022 compared with ~~$792~~$682 million of cash provided by operating activities during the first ~~half~~three quarters of fiscal 2021, primarily due to the following:

Net Income ~~(Loss)~~

•~~Net~~a decrease in net income;

•a decrease of ~~$296~~$384 million related to ~~merchandise inventory~~accounts payable primarily ~~as a result~~due to the timing of ~~higher~~payments for inventory during the first ~~half~~three quarters of fiscal 2022 ~~in part due to select seasonal product being stored at distribution centers~~ compared with the ~~utilization during the~~ first ~~half~~three quarters of fiscal ~~2021 of previously stored seasonal inventory;~~2021; and

•a decrease of ~~$274~~$362 million related to accrued expenses and other current liabilities ~~in part~~primarily due to a decrease in performance-based compensation for fiscal 2022 compared with fiscal 2021; ~~and~~

•~~a decrease of $124 million related to accounts payable primarily due to increased payments for inventory during the first half of fiscal 2022 compared with the first half of 2021;~~ partially offset by

•an increase of ~~$427~~$310 million related to income taxes payable, net of receivables and other tax-related items, primarily due to the receipt of tax refunds during the first ~~half~~three quarters of fiscal 2022 related to our fiscal 2020 net operating loss carryback ~~claims.~~claims; and

•an increase of $210 million related to merchandise inventory primarily due to timing of receipts as a result of shipping delays and port congestion that occurred during the first three quarters of fiscal 2021.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

Net cash used for investing activities ~~decreased $144~~was $119 million during the first ~~half~~three quarters of fiscal 2022 compared with $508 million of cash used for investing activities during the first ~~half~~three quarters of fiscal 2021, primarily due to the following:

•$~~333~~458 million in net proceeds ~~received for the~~from sale of ~~a building~~buildings during the first ~~quarter~~three quarters of fiscal 2022; and

•$135 million in cash payments for acquisitions in the first three quarters of fiscal 2021; partially offset by

•$91 million more purchases of property and equipment during the first ~~half~~three quarters of fiscal 2022 compared with the first ~~half~~three quarters of fiscal 2021.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities was ~~$122~~$60 million during the first ~~half~~three quarters of fiscal 2022 compared with ~~$183~~$1,358 million of cash used for financing activities during the first ~~half~~three quarters of fiscal 2021, primarily due to ~~$350~~the following:

•$2,546 million for payments related to the extinguishment of long-term debt during the first three quarters of fiscal 2021; and

•$350 million in proceeds received ~~as a result of~~from borrowing under the ABL Facility during the first quarter of fiscal ~~2022.~~2022; partially offset by

•$1,500 million in proceeds received for the issuance of long-term debt during the first three quarters of fiscal 2021.

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. We require regular capital expenditures including technology improvements to automate processes, engage with customers, and optimize our supply chain in addition to building and maintaining stores. 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.

The following table reconciles free cash flow, a non-GAAP financial measure, from a GAAP financial measure.

Dividend Policy

In determining whether and at what level to declare a dividend, we consider a number of factors including sustainability, operating performance, liquidity, and market conditions.

We paid a dividend of $0.15 per share during the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal 2022. In ~~August~~November 2022, the Board authorized a dividend of $0.15 per share for the ~~third~~fourth quarter of fiscal 2022.

Share Repurchases

Certain financial information about the Company’s share repurchases is set forth in Note 7 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q.

Summary Disclosures about Contractual Cash Obligations and Commercial Commitments

As of October 29, 2022, our merchandise inventory-related purchase obligations have decreased compared with January 29, 2022. In addition to seasonal fluctuations that are inherent to our business, we have reduced inventory buys in an effort to reduce and rebalance inventory levels, primarily at Old Navy Global. The global supply chain challenges have also improved, reducing the need to start the merchandise booking process earlier. There have been no other material changes to our contractual obligations and commercial commitments as disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K as of January 29, 2022, other than those which occur in the normal course of business. See Note 9 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q, for disclosures on commitments and contingencies.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

There have been no significant changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates as discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 29, 2022. See Note 1 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q, for disclosures on accounting policies.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Our market risk profile as of January 29, 2022, is disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K and has not significantly changed other than the $350 million variable-rate borrowing under our ABL Facility, which is subject to interest rate risk. On July 13, 2022, we entered into an amendment and restatement of the ABL Facility. Among other changes, the amendment and restatement modified the reference rate from LIBOR to SOFR and reduced the applicable interest rate margin. See Notes 3, 4, and 6 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1, of this Form 10-Q for disclosures on our debt and credit facilities, investments, and derivative financial instruments.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the interim Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based upon that evaluation, the interim Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

During the third quarter of fiscal 2022, we shifted our legacy enterprise resource planning ("ERP") system to a cloud-based ERP system. As part of the system conversion, we assessed the impact to the control environment and modified internal controls where necessary.

There ~~was~~were no ~~change~~other changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the Company’s ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal 2022 that ~~has~~have materially affected, or isare reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

We cannot predict with assurance the outcome of Actions brought against us. Accordingly, developments, settlements, or resolutions may occur and impact operations in the quarter of such development, settlement, or resolution. However, we do not believe that the outcome of any current Action would have a material effect on our financial results.
