Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | Note 1. Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Organization The Gap, Inc., a Delaware Corporation, is a global specialty retailer offering clothing, accessories, and personal care products for men, women, children, and babies under the Gap, Old Navy, Banana Republic, Piperlime, and Athleta brands. We operate stores in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, France, Ireland, and Japan, and we also have franchise agreements with unaffiliated franchisees to operate stores in Asia, Australia, Europe, LatinAmerica, and the Middle East under the Gap and Banana Republic brand names. Our U.S. customers can shop online at gap.com, oldnavy.com, bananarepublic.com, piperlime.com, and athleta.com. Principles of Consolidation The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of The Gap, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the Company, we, and our). All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. Fiscal Year Our fiscal year is a 52- or 53-week period ending on the Saturday closest to January31. Fiscal years ended January30, 2010 (fiscal 2009), January31, 2009 (fiscal 2008) and February2, 2008 (fiscal 2007) consisted of 52 weeks. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the UnitedStates of America 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 thoseestimates. Cash and Cash Equivalents, Short-Term Investments, and Restricted Cash Amounts in-transit from banks for customer credit card and debit card transactions that process in less than seven days are classified as cash and cash equivalents in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The banks process the majority of these amounts within one to two business days. All highly liquid investments with maturities of 91 days or less at the date of purchase are classified as cash equivalents. Highly liquid investments with maturities of greater than 91 days and less than one year from the balance sheet date are classified as short-term investments. Our cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments are placed primarily in money market funds, domestic commercial paper, U.S. treasury bills, and bank deposits, and are classified as held-to-maturity based on our positive intent and ability to hold the securities to maturity. These investments are stated at amortized cost, which approximates market value due to their short maturities. Income related to these securities is recorded in interest income in the Consolidated Statements ofIncome. Any cash that is legally restricted from use is recorded in restricted cash in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. If the purpose of restricted cash relates to acquiring a long-term asset, liquidating a long-term liability or is otherwise unavailable for a period longer than one year from the balance sheet date, the restricted cash is classified as a long-term asset. Otherwise, |

Restricted Cash Restricted cash consists primarily of cash that serves as collateral for our insurance obligations. Restricted cash of $41 million as of January31, 2009 also included collateral from our cross-currency interest rate swap, which was reclassified to cash and cash equivalents in connection with the settlement in fiscal 2009. Other Current Assets Other current assets consist of the following: ($ in millions) January30, 2010 January31, 2009 Current portion of deferred tax assets $ 193 $ 166 Prepaid minimum rent and occupancy expenses 140 136 Prepaid expenses 119 217 Prepaid catalog 1 3 Other 143 221 Other current assets $ 596 $ 743 No other individual items accounted for greater than five percent of total current assets as of January30, 2010 or January31, 2009.

Interest of $8 million and $10 million related to assets under construction was capitalized in fiscal 2008 and 2007, respectively. We recorded a charge for the impairment of long-lived assets, primarily related to our Stores reportable segment, of $14 million, $5 million, and $13 million for fiscal 2009, 2008, and 2007, respectively, which is recorded in operating expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Income.

Discontinued Operation of Forth & Towne | Note 3. Discontinued Operation of Forth Towne In February 2007, we announced our decision to close our Forth Towne store locations. The decision resulted from a thorough analysis of the concept, which revealed it was not demonstrating enough potential to deliver an acceptable long-term return on investment. All of the 19 Forth Towne stores were closed by the end of June2007, and we reduced our workforce by approximately 550 employees in fiscal 2007. The results of Forth Towne, net of income tax benefit, are presented as a discontinued operation in the Consolidated Statements of Income for all periods presented and are as follows: Fiscal Year ($ in millions) 2009 2008 2007 Net sales $ $ $ 16 Loss from discontinued operation, before income tax benefit $ $ $ (56 ) Add: Income tax benefit 22 Loss from discontinued operation, net of income tax benefit $ $ $ (34 ) For fiscal 2007, the loss from the discontinued operation of Forth Towne included the following charges on a pre-tax basis: $29 million related to the impairment of long-lived assets, $6 million of lease settlement charges, $5million of employee severance, $4 million of administrative and other costs, and $2 million of net lease losses. Future cash payments for Forth Towne primarily relate to obligations associated with certain leases, and these payments will be made over the various remaining lease terms through 2017. Based on our current assumptions as of January30, 2010, we expect our lease payments, net of sublease income, to be immaterial. |

Acquisition, Goodwill, and Intangible Assets | Note 4. Acquisition, Goodwill, and Intangible Assets On September28, 2008, we acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of Athleta Inc., a womens sports and active apparel company based in Petaluma, California, for an aggregate purchase price of $148 million in cash, including transaction costs. The acquisition allows us to enhance our presence in the growing womens active apparel sector in the United States. The results of operations for Athleta are included in the Consolidated Statements of Income beginning September29, 2008.The impact of the acquisition on the Companys results of operations, as if the acquisition had been completed as of the beginning of the periods presented, is not significant. The purchase price was allocated as follows as of September28, 2008: ($ in millions) Goodwill $ 99 Trade name 54 Intangible assets subject to amortization 15 Net liabilities assumed (20 ) Total purchase price $ 148 All of the assets above have been allocated to the Direct reportable segment. None of the goodwill acquired is deductible for tax purposes. During fiscal 2009 and 2008, there were no material changes in the carrying amount of goodwill or the trade name. Intangible assets subject to amortization, consisting primarily of customer relationships, are being amortized over a weighted-average amortization period of four years and are asfollows: ($ in millions) January30, 2010 January31, 2009 Gross carrying amount $ 15 $ 15 Less: Accumulated amortization (8 ) (2 ) Intangible assets subject to amortization, net of accumulated amortization $ 7 $ 13 Amortization expense for intangible assets subject to amortization for fiscal 2009 and 2008 was $6 million and $2million, respectively, and is recorded in operating expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Income.

Credit Facilities | Note 6. Credit Facilities Trade letters of credit represent a payment undertaking guaranteed by a bank on our behalf to pay a vendor a given amount of money upon presentation of specific documents demonstrating that merchandise has shipped. Vendor payables are recorded in the Consolidated Balance Sheets at the time of merchandise title transfer, although the letters of credit are generally issued prior to this. Most of our merchandise vendors are now on open account payment terms. As of January30, 2010, our letter of credit agreements consist of two separate $100million, three-year, unsecured committed letter of credit agreements with two separate banks, for a total aggregate availability of $200 million with an expiration date of May 2011. As of January30, 2010, we had $24million in trade letters of credit issued under these letter of credit agreements. As of January30, 2010, our credit facility consisted of a $500 million, five-year, unsecured revolving credit facility with an expiration date of August 2012 (the Facility). The Facility is available for general corporate purposes, including working capital, trade letters of credit, and standby letters of credit. The facility usage fees and fees related to the Facility fluctuate based on our long-term senior unsecured credit ratings and our leverage ratio. If we were to draw on the Facility, interest would be a base rate (typically the London Interbank Offered Rate) plus a margin based on our long-term senior unsecured credit ratings and our leverage ratio on the unpaid principal amount. To maintain availability of funds under the Facility, we pay a facility fee on the full facility amount, regardless of usage. As of January30, 2010, there were no borrowings under the Facility. The net availability of the Facility, reflecting $56million of outstanding standby letters of credit, was $444 million as of January30, 2010. The Facility and letter of credit agreements contain financial and other covenants, including but not limited to limitations on liens and subsidiary debt as well as the maintenance of two financial ratiosa fixed charge coverage ratio and a leverage ratio. Violation of these covenants could result in a default under the Facility and letter of credit agreements, which would permit the participating banks to terminate our ability to access the Facility for letters of credit and advances, terminate our ability to request letters of credit under the letter of credit agreements, require the immediate repayment of any outstanding advances under the Facility, and require the immediate posting of cash collateral in support of any outstanding letters of credit under the letter of creditagreements. |

The principal currencies hedged against changes in the U.S.Dollar are Euro, British pounds, Japanese yen, and Canadian dollars. The fair value of the Companys derivative financial instruments is determined using pricing models based on current market rates. Derivative financial instruments in an asset position are recorded in other current assets or other long-term assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Derivative financial instruments in a liability position are recorded in accrued expenses and other current liabilities or lease incentives and other long-term liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. We maintain deferred compensation plans which allow eligible employees and non-employee members of the Board of Directors to defer compensation up to a maximum amount. Plan investments are recorded at market value and are designated for the deferred compensation plans. The fair value of the Companys deferred compensation plan assets is determined based on quoted market prices, and the assets are recorded in other long-term assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. In addition, as of January30, 2010 and January31, 2009, we had highly liquid investments classified as cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments measured using level 1 inputs. These investments are placed primarily in money market funds, domestic commercial paper, U.S. treasury bills, and bank deposits, and are classified as held-to-maturity based on our positive intent and ability to hold the securities to maturity. These investments are stated at amortized cost, which approximates market value due to their short maturities. Nonfinancial Assets Effective February1, 2009, we adopted e |

Derivative Financial Instruments | Note 8. Derivative Financial Instruments Effective February1, 2009, we adopted enhanced disclosure requirements for derivative financial instruments and hedging activities. We operate in foreign countries, which exposes us to market risk associated with foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. Our risk management policy is to hedge a significant portion of forecasted merchandise purchases for foreign operations, forecasted intercompany royalty payments, and intercompany obligations that bear foreign exchange risk using foreign exchange forward contracts. The principal currencies hedged against changes in the U.S. dollar are Euro, British pounds, Japanese yen, and Canadian dollars. Until March 2009, we also used a cross-currency interest rate swap to swap the interest and principal payable of the $50million debt of our Japanese subsidiary, Gap (Japan) KK. In connection with the maturity of the debt, the swap was settled in March 2009. Wedo not enter into derivative financial contracts for trading purposes. Our derivative financial instruments are recorded in the Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value determined using pricing models based on current market rates. Cash flows from derivative financial instruments are classified as cash flows from operating activities in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. Cash Flow Hedges We designate the following foreign exchange forward contracts as cash flow hedges: forward contracts used to hedge forecasted merchandise purchases denominated primarily in U.S. dollars made by our international subsidiaries whose functional currencies are their local currencies and forward contracts used to hedge forecasted intercompany royalty payments denominated in Japanese yen and Canadian dollars received by entities whose functional currencies are U.S. dollars. There were no material amounts recorded in income for fiscal 2009, 2008, or 2007 as a result of hedge ineffectiveness, hedge components excluded from the assessment of effectiveness, or the discontinuance of cash flow hedges because the forecasted transactions were no longer probable. We make merchandise purchases on a monthly basis, and we enter into foreign exchange forward contracts to hedge forecasted merchandise purchases generally occurring in 12 to 18 months. We make intercompany royalty payments on a quarterly basis, and we enter into foreign exchange forward contracts to hedge intercompany royalty payments generally occurring in 12 to 15 months. At January30, 2010, we had foreign exchange forward contracts outstanding to buy the notional amount of $671million and 21million British pounds and to sell various currencies related to our forecasted merchandise purchases and forecasted intercompany royalty payments. Net Investment Hedges We also use foreign exchange forward contracts to hedge the net assets of international subsidiaries to offset the foreign currency translation and economic exposures related to our investment in the subsidiaries. There were no amounts recorded in income for fiscal 2009, 2008, or 2007 as a result of hedge ineffectiveness, hedge components excluded from the assessment of effectiveness, or the |

Other than the stock option modification noted below, there were no other material modifications made to our outstanding stock options and other stock awards in fiscal 2009, 2008, and 2007. General Description of Stock Option and Other Stock Award Plans The 1996 Stock Option and Award Plan (the 1996 Plan) was established on March26, 1996 and amended and restated on January28, 2003. The 1996 Plan was further amended and restated on January24, 2006 and renamed the 2006 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the 2006 Plan). The 2006 Plan was further amended and restated on August20, 2008. Under the 2006 Plan, nonqualified stock options and other stock awards are granted to officers, directors, eligible employees, and consultants at exercise prices or with initial values equal to the fair market value of the Companys common stock at the date of grant or as determined by the Compensation and Management Development Committee of the Board of Directors (the Committee). The 2002 Stock Option Plan (the 2002 Plan) was established on January1, 1999. On May9, 2006, the 2002 Plan was discontinued, and only those awards then outstanding continue to be subject to the terms of the 2002 Plan under which they were granted. The 2002 Plan empowered the Committee to award nonqualified stock options to non-officer employees. As of January30, 2010, we had 115,567,431shares of our common stock available for future issuance for our stock option and other stock award plans. Stock options generally expire 10 years from the grant date, three months after employee termination, or one year after the date of an employees retirement or death, if earlier. In addition, stock options generally vest over a four year period, with shares becoming exercisable in equal annual installments of 25 percent. Other stock awards generally vest over a four year period in equal annual installments of 25 percent. Beginning in the second quarter of fiscal 2009, all shares related to stock options and other stock awards are issued from treasury stock. Stock Option and Other Stock Award Modification In February 2007, the Committee approved the modification of certain stock options and other stock awards held by designated employees such that at the time of an involuntary termination without cause, any outstanding, unvested time-based options or other stock awards scheduled to vest within a defined time frame would be accelerated.

Leases | Note 11. Leases We lease most of our store premises and some of our corporate facilities and distribution centers. These operating leases expire at various dates through 2033. Most store leases are for a five year base period and include options that allow us to extend the lease term beyond the initial base period, subject to terms agreed upon at lease inception. Some leases also include early termination options, which can be exercised under specific conditions. We also lease certain equipment under operating leases that expire at various dates through 2012. The aggregate minimum non-cancelable annual lease payments under leases in effect on January30, 2010, are asfollows: ($ in millions) Fiscal Year 2010 $ 986 2011 792 2012 608 2013 476 2014 372 Thereafter 938 Total minimum lease commitments $ 4,172 The total minimum lease commitment amount above does not include minimum sublease rent income of $17million receivable in the future under non-cancelable sublease agreements.

We had lease loss reserves of $13 million and $10 million as of January30, 2010 and January31, 2009, respectively. Lease losses are recorded in operating expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Income and were $6 million, $8million, and $5 million for fiscal 2009, 2008, and 2007, respectively. Remaining cash expenditures associated with our lease loss reserve are expected to be paid over the various remaining lease terms through 2017. Based on our current assumptions as of January30, 2010, we expect a total net cash outlay of approximately $18 million for future rent. |

Income Taxes | Note 12. Income Taxes For financial reporting purposes, components of income from continuing operations before income taxes are as follows: Fiscal Year ($ in millions) 2009 2008 2007 United States $ 1,511 $ 1,209 $ 1,073 Foreign 305 375 333 Income from continuing operations before income taxes $ 1,816 $ 1,584 $ 1,406 The provision for income taxes consists of the following: Fiscal Year ($ in millions) 2009 2008 2007 Current: Federal $ 572 $ 440 $ 443 State 78 43 56 Foreign 114 124 91 Total current 764 607 590 Deferred: Federal (43 ) 5 (42 ) State (10 ) 5 (18 ) Foreign 3 9 Total deferred (50 ) 10 (51 ) Total provision $ 714 $ 617 $ 539 During fiscal 2009, we assessed the anticipated cash needs and overall financial position of our Canadian and Japanese subsidiaries. As a result, we determined that we no longer intend to utilize approximately $117 million and $83 million of the undistributed earnings of our Canadian and Japanese subsidiaries, respectively, in foreign operations indefinitely. Accordingly, we have established a deferred tax liability for U.S. income taxes with respect to such earnings as of January30, 2010 and have recorded related tax expense of $9 million. The foreign component of pre-tax income before elimination of intercompany transactions in fiscal 2009, 2008, and 2007 was $305 million, $375 million, and $333 million, respectively. Except as noted above and where required by U.S. tax law, no provision was made for U.S. income taxes on the undistributed earnings of the foreign subsidiaries, as we intend to utilize those earnings in the foreign operations for an indefinite period of time or repatriate such earnings only when tax-effective to do so. That portion of accumulated undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries as of January30, 2010 and January31, 2009 was approximately $1.1 billion for both years. If the undistributed earnings were repatriated, the unrecorded deferred tax liability as of January30, 2010 and January31,2009 would have been approximately $148 million and $147 million, respectively. The difference between the effective income tax rate and the U.S. federal income tax rate is as follows: Fiscal Year 2009 2008 2007 Federal tax rate 35.0 % 35.0 % 35.0 % State income taxes, less federal benefit 3.7 3.5 3.1 Tax impact of foreign operations 1.4 1.7 2.3 Other (0.8 ) (1.2 ) (2.1 ) Effective tax rate 39.3 % 39.0 % 38.3 % Deferred tax assets (liabilities) consist of the following: ($ in millions) January30, 2010 January31, 2009 Deferred tax assets: Deferred rent $ 113 |

Employee Benefit Plans | Note 13. Employee Benefit Plans We have a qualified defined contribution retirement plan called GapShare, which is available to employees who meet certain age and service requirements. This plan permits employees to make contributions up to the maximum limits allowable under the Internal Revenue Code. Under the plan, we match, in cash, all or a portion of employees contributions under a predetermined formula. Our contributions vest immediately. Our contributions to GapShare were $35 million, $34 million, and $36 million in fiscal 2009, 2008, and 2007, respectively. We also have a deferred compensation plan that allows eligible employees and non-employee members of the Board of Directors to defer compensation up to a maximum amount. Plan investments are recorded at fair market value and are designated for the deferred compensation plan. The Companys deferred compensation plan assets are determined based on quoted market prices.As of January30, 2010 and January31, 2009, the assets related to the deferred compensation plan were $21 million and $18 million, respectively, and were recorded in other long-term assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of January30, 2010 and January31, 2009, the corresponding liabilities relating to the deferred compensation plan were $22 million and $18 million, respectively, and were recorded in lease incentives and other long-term liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. We match all or aportion of employees contributions under a predetermined formula. Plan investments are elected by the participants, and investment returns are not guaranteed by the Company. Our contributions to the deferred compensation plan in fiscal 2009, 2008, and 2007 were not material. We do not match non-employee members ofthe Board of Directors contributions under the deferred compensation plan. |

Commitments and Contingencies | Note 15. Commitments and Contingencies In January 2006, we entered into a non-exclusive services agreement with IBM to operate certain aspects of our information technology infrastructure. The agreement was amended effective March2, 2009. The services agreement expires in March 2016, and we have the right to renew it for up to three additional years. We have various options to terminate the agreement, and we pay IBM under a combination of fixed and variable charges, with the variable charges fluctuating based on our actual consumption of services. IBM also has certain termination rights in the event of our material breach of the agreement and failure to cure. We paid $120million, $134million, and $146 million to IBM for fixed charges during fiscal 2009, 2008, and 2007, respectively. Based on the current projection of service needs, we expect to pay approximately $623 million to IBM over the remaining term of the contract. We have assigned certain store and corporate facility leases to third parties as of January30, 2010.Under these arrangements, we are secondarily liable and have guaranteed the lease payments of the new lessees for the remaining portion of our original lease obligations through 2019.The maximum potential amount of future lease payments we could be required to make is approximately $31 million as of January30, 2010.We recognize a liability for such guarantees when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the loss is probable and the amount of such loss can be reasonably estimated. The carrying amount of the liability related to the guarantees was $2 million as of January30, 2010 and January31, 2009. 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 financial condition or results of operations. As party to a reinsurance pool for workers compensation, general liability, and automobile liability, we have guarantees with a maximum exposure of $14 million as of January30, 2010, of which $0.2 million has been cash collateralized. We are currently in the process of winding down our participation in the reinsurance pool. Our maximum exposure and cash collateralized balance are expected to decrease in the future as our participation in the reinsurance pool diminishes. As a multinational company, we are subjec |

All of our operating segments sell a group of similar products clothing, accessories, and personal care products. We have two reportable segments: Stores The Stores reportable segment includes the results of the retail stores for each of our brands: Gap, OldNavy, and Banana Republic. We have aggregated the results of all Stores operating segments into one reportable segment because we believe the operating segments have similar economic characteristics. Direct The Direct operating segment includes the results of the online business for each of our web-based brands: gap.com, oldnavy.com, bananarepublic.com, piperlime.com, and beginning in September 2008, athleta.com. The Direct operating segment also includes Athletas catalog business. Based on the different distribution method associated with the Direct operating segment, Direct is considered a reportable segment.
