The Exhibit Index is located on Page 11 hereof. PART I ------ ITEM 1 - BUSINESS GENERAL - ------- The Gap, Inc. (hereinafter referred to as the "Company") is an international specialty retailer which operates stores selling casual apparel, shoes and other accessories for men, women and children under a number of brand names, including: Gap, GapKids, babyGap, Banana Republic, and Old Navy Clothing Co. The Company was incorporated in the State of California in July 1969 and was reincorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware in May 1988. On March 24, 1997, the Company operated 1,883 stores, including 947 Gap, 491 GapKids, 17 baby Gap, 229 Banana Republic, and 199 Old Navy Clothing Co. stores (71 of the Gap and GapKids stores are located in the United Kingdom, 101 in Canada, 18 in France, 11 in Japan and 8 in Germany; 8 of the Banana Republic stores are located in Canada). Virtually all of the Company's merchandise is private label. The Gap stores offer casual clothing for men and women. GapKids was introduced in 1986 to provide well-designed, comfortable clothing for boys and girls ages 2-12. The babyGap line, offering mostly natural fiber clothing for infants and toddlers, was added in 1990 and is sold in all GapKids stores as well as in its own freestanding stores. Banana Republic offers classic, casual fashions for men and women and a home accessories line in selected stores. Old Navy Clothing Co. was introduced in 1993 and offers casual basic and fashion clothing and various accessories and gift items at lower price points for men, women and children. RECENT DEVELOPMENTS - ------------------- During fiscal 1996, the Company focused on developing and growing its brands, especially in its two newer divisions: Old Navy Clothing Co. and International. The Company also invested in the development of brand extensions: new product categories (such as personal care in all its divisions, bedding and layette for babyGap, a home accessories line for Banana Republic, jewelry and underwear for Gap and Banana Republic) and new formats (testing separate men's and women's stores for Gap and Banana Republic, separate babyGap stores, airport store locations, and an alliance with Duty Free Stores in Hong Kong and Guam). The Company has limited operating history in some of these concepts and is faced with competition from established retailers in these new lines. There is no guarantee that these investments will result in increased profitability. The Company continued to expand internationally in 1996. The International division is faced with competition in its European and Japanese markets from established regional and national chains. Operations in these markets involve special risks and complexities. If such expansion is not successful, the Company's results of operations could be adversely affected. Specifically, the division's operations in Germany and France are not profitable at the present early stage of expansion, due in part to investments in infrastructure (a new distribution center located in Holland) and personnel growth (expanding the European Support Office to support the anticipated European expansion). The Company's ability to grow successfully in the continental European markets will depend in part on determining the best way to compete in the especially challenging retail environment of Germany and France. Even though in fiscal 1996 the Gap division had its best comparable store performance in five years, its comparable store performance in the first two months of fiscal 1997 was negative, driven primarily by weakness in the men's apparel business. This business had experienced difficulties in fiscal 1996, and this trend is expected to continue, especially in the first half of 1997, when prior-year comparisons are the most difficult. Given its large store base and modest growth in new stores, the most critical factor in profit growth for the Gap division is growth in the number of stores. Improvement in the men's apparel business is especially important in growing comparable store sales. If the Gap division is unable to improve its comparable store growth, the Company's results of operations could be adversely affected. MERCHANDISE INVENTORY, REPLENISHMENT AND DISTRIBUTION - ----------------------------------------------------- The retail apparel business fluctuates according to changes in customer preferences dictated in part by fashion 1 and season. These fluctuations especially affect the inventory owned by apparel retailers, since merchandise usually must be ordered well in advance of the season and sometimes before fashion trends are evidenced by customer purchases. The Company is also vulnerable to changing fashion trends. In addition, the cyclical nature of the retail business requires the Company to carry a significant amount of inventory, especially prior to peak selling seasons when the Company and other retailers generally build up their inventory levels. The Company must enter into contracts for the purchase and manufacture of apparel well in advance of the applicable selling season. As a result, the Company is vulnerable to demand and pricing shifts and to errors in selection and timing of merchandise purchases. The Company reviews its inventory levels in order to identify slow-moving merchandise and broken assortments (items no longer in stock in a sufficient range of sizes) and uses markdowns to clear merchandise. Markdowns may be used if inventory exceeds customer demand for reasons of style, seasonal adaptation, changes in customer preference, lack of consumer acceptance of fashion items, or if it is determined that the inventory in stock will not sell at its currently marked price. Such markdowns may have an adverse impact on earnings, depending on their extent and the amount of inventory affected. Because the Company does not carry much replenishment inventory in its stores, such inventory is maintained in the Company's distribution centers in California, Kentucky, Maryland, Tennessee and Canada and in distribution centers operated by third parties in the Netherlands and Japan, and then shipped to the stores. STORE OPERATIONS AND EXPANSION - ------------------------------ The Company's stores offer a shopper-friendly environment with an assortment of casual clothing and accessories which emphasizes style, quality and good value. The range of apparel displayed in each store varies significantly depending on the selling season and the size and location of the store. The Company's stores generally are open seven days per week (where permitted by law), three to six nights per week and most holidays. All sales are made for cash, personal checks or on credit cards issued by others. The Company's continued success depends, in part, upon its ability to increase sales at existing store locations, to open new stores and to operate stores on a profitable basis. There can be no assurance that the Company's growth will result in enhanced profitability or that it will continue at the same rate in future years. SUPPLIERS - --------- The Company purchases merchandise from over 1,200 suppliers located domestically and overseas. No supplier accounted for more than 5% of the Company's fiscal 1996 purchases. Of the Company's merchandise sold worldwide during fiscal 1996, approximately 30% was produced domestically while the remaining 70% was made outside the United States. Approximately 10% of the Company's total merchandise was from Hong Kong, with the remainder coming from 47 other countries. Any event causing a sudden disruption of imports from Hong Kong, including the imposition of additional import restrictions, could have a materially adverse effect on the Company's operations. Substantially all of the Company's foreign purchases are negotiated and paid for in U.S. dollars. The Company cannot predict whether any of the foreign countries in which its products currently are manufactured or may be manufactured in the future will be subject to trade restrictions imposed by the U.S. government, including the likelihood, type or effect of any such restrictions. Trade restrictions, including increased tariffs or quotas, or both, against apparel items could increase the cost or reduce the supply of apparel available to the Company and adversely affect the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, the Company's import operations may be adversely affected by political instability resulting in the disruption of trade from exporting countries, significant fluctuation in the value of the U.S. dollar against foreign currencies, restrictions on the transfer of funds and/or other trade disruptions. SEASONAL BUSINESS - ----------------- 2 The Company's business follows a seasonal pattern, peaking over a total of about 12 weeks during the late summer (late August through September) and holiday (Thanksgiving through Christmas) periods. During fiscal year 1996, these periods accounted for approximately 33% of the Company's annual sales. COMPETITION - ----------- The Company's business is highly competitive. The Company's stores compete with national and local department, specialty and discount store chains and independent retail stores which handle similar lines of merchandise. Some competitors have larger sales and assets than the Company. Depth of selection in sizes, colors and styles of merchandise, merchandise procurement and pricing, ability to anticipate fashion trends and customer preferences, inventory control, reputation, quality of merchandise, store design and location, advertising and customer service are all important factors in competing successfully in the retail industry. Given the large number of companies in the retail industry, the Company cannot estimate the number of its competitors or its relative competitive position. The performance of the Company in recent years has increased imitation by other retailers. Such imitation has made and will continue to make the retail environment in which the Company operates more competitive. In addition, the success of the Company's operations depends upon a number of factors relating to consumer spending, including future economic conditions affecting disposable consumer income such as employment, business conditions, interest rates and taxation. A decline in consumer spending could adversely affect the Company's net sales and profitability. ADVERTISING - ----------- In 1996, the Company increased its investment in advertising and marketing as a percentage of sales. Besides expanding the number of print ads placed in major metropolitan newspapers and their Sunday magazines, major news weeklies and lifestyle and fashion magazines, the Company's ads appeared in various outdoor venues, such as mass transit posters, exterior bus panels, bus shelters and gigantic billboards spanning entire buildings. In addition, the Company ran TV ads for its babyGap concept and TV and radio ads for Old Navy, established a site on the world-wide web, and ran promotional campaigns for the opening of its Old Navy and International stores. The Company plans to continue its stronger investments in advertising and marketing in 1997. There can be no assurances that these increased investments will result in increased sales or profitability. EMPLOYEES - --------- On February 1, 1997, the Company had a work force of approximately 66,000 employees. The Company also hires temporary employees during the peak late summer and holiday seasons. The Company considers its employee relations to be good. TRADEMARKS AND SERVICE MARKS - ---------------------------- The trademarks and service marks for Gap, GapKids, babyGap, Banana Republic and Old Navy Clothing Co., and certain other trademarks either have been registered, or have trademark applications pending, with the United States Patent and Trademark Office and with the registries of many foreign countries. 3 EXECUTIVE OFFICERS OF THE REGISTRANT - ------------------------------------ The Chairman of the Company is Donald G.

The newly-opened stores include 62 Gap stores (including 5 stores in the United Kingdom, 5 stores in Canada, 2 stores in France, 3 stores in Japan and 2 stores in Germany), 47 GapKids stores (including 7 stores in the United Kingdom, 5 stores in Canada, 3 stores in France, 2 stores in Japan and 2 stores in Germany), 13 babyGap stores, 18 Banana Republic stores (including 3 stores in Canada), and 63 Old Navy Clothing Co. stores. In addition, during fiscal year 1996, the Company expanded 42 stores. The expanded stores include 19 Gap stores (including 2 in the United Kingdom), 13 GapKids stores (including 2 in the United Kingdom), and 10 Banana Republic stores. The 1,854 stores operating on February 1, 1997 aggregated approximately 12.6 million square feet. The Company leases virtually all of its store premises for terms generally ranging from 12 to 15 years. Most leases provide for additional rent based on a percentage of store sales above a certain level in addition to or in lieu of minimum rentals, as well as for the payment of certain other expenses. Some leases contain cancellation clauses in favor of the Company if specified sales levels are not achieved. In the United States, the Company's stores are located in all of the 50 largest metropolitan statistical areas. During fiscal year 1997, the Company plans to increase store space by approximately 18%, before taking into account store closings. This increase is expected to include the opening of at least 275 new stores worldwide and the expansion of approximately 65 to 75 of the Company's existing stores. The Company currently leases most of its headquarters and regional office buildings, as well as its Eastern Distribution Center (EDC) and Kentucky Distribution Center (KDC). The EDC/KDC in Erlanger, Kentucky together consist of approximately 1,220,000 square feet. Their lease term runs through February 28, 2003, with options to extend the lease for an additional 30 years. In order to capitalize on synergies with the nearby EDC/KDC, the Company has entered into a lease for 19 acres of land and a 320,000 square foot structure for consolidation/deconsolidation purposes in Hebron, Kentucky. The Company owns its Canadian Distribution Center (CDC) located in Brampton, Ontario. It consists of approximately 150,000 square feet. A 215,000 square foot expansion to the CDC is estimated to be completed by June 1997. The Company also owns its Western Distribution Center (WDC), a 344,000 square-foot facility located in 4 Ventura, California. The Company also owns an adjacent five acre parcel for possible future expansion. The Atlantic Distribution Center (ADC), a facility owned by the Company in Edgewood, Maryland, covers approximately 745,000 square feet. The Company also owns 156 adjacent acres, portions of which could be used for potential expansion of the ADC. The Southern Distribution Center (SDC), a facility owned by the Company in Gallatin, Tennessee, covers approximately 769,000 square feet. The Company also owns its Holland Distribution Center (HDC), a 127,000 square foot facility located in Roosendaal, the Netherlands, to serve its European stores and its Japan Distribution Center (JDC), a 30,000 square foot facility located in Funabashi City, Shiba, Japan, to serve its Japanese stores. Both these facilities are operated by third parties. The Company also owns and operates a data center located on seven acres of land in Rocklin, California; it covers approximately 40,000 square feet and serves as a corporate computer processing center. In February 1996, the Company exercised an option to purchase a 12-acre parcel of land for $9,000,000 in San Bruno, California to expand its headquarters facilities. Construction began in April 1996 for an estimated cost at completion of $55-60 million. The Company will own the facility, which is expected to be in operation in late 1997. ITEM 3 - LEGAL PROCEEDINGS The Company is a party to routine litigation incident to its business.
