FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements other than those that are purely historical are forward-looking statements. Words such as “expect,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “intend,” “plan,” “project,” and similar expressions also identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding the following:

• the impact of the adoption of new accounting standards;

• recognition of unrealized gains and losses from designated cash flow hedges;

• the impact of the potential settlement of outstanding tax matters and the closing of audits;

• the impact of losses due to indemnification obligations;

• the outcome of proceedings, lawsuits, disputes, and claims;

• offering product that is consistent, brand-appropriate, and on-trend;

• evolving our customer experience to reflect the intersection of digital and physical;

• attracting, retaining, and training great talent;

• growing globally across our brands and channels;

• continuing investment in digital capabilities;

• opening additional stores in Asia with a focus on Gap China, Old Navy China, and Old Navy Japan;

• opening additional Athleta stores;

• optimize and improve store fleet productivity;

• the impact of foreign exchange rate fluctuations on our financial results;

• the impact of delayed merchandise receipts at the U.S. West Coast ports;

• current cash balances and cash flows being sufficient to support our business operations, including growth initiatives and planned capital expenditures;

• ability to supplement near-term liquidity, if necessary, with our $500 million revolving credit facility;

• the impact of the seasonality of our operations;

• dividend payments in fiscal 2015; and

• the impact of changes in internal control over financial reporting.

Because these forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, there are important factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. These factors include, without limitation, the following:

• the risk that adoption of new accounting pronouncements will impact future results;

• the risk that we or our franchisees will be unsuccessful in gauging apparel trends and changing consumer preferences;

• the risk that changes in global economic conditions or consumer spending patterns could adversely impact our results of operations;

• the highly competitive nature of our business in the United States and internationally;

• the risk that if we are unable to manage our inventory effectively, our gross margins will be adversely affected;

• the risks to our efforts to expand internationally, including our ability to operate under a global brand structure, foreign exchange fluctuations, and operating in regions where we have less experience;

• the risks to our business, including our costs and supply chain, associated with global sourcing and manufacturing;

• the risks to our reputation or operations associated with importing merchandise from foreign countries, including failure of our vendors to adhere to our Code of Vendor Conduct;

• the risk that trade matters could increase the cost or reduce the supply of apparel available to us and adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations;

• the risk that our franchisees’ operation of franchise stores is not directly within our control and could impair the value of our brands;

• the risk that we or our franchisees will be unsuccessful in identifying, negotiating, and securing new store locations and renewing, modifying, or terminating leases for existing store locations effectively;

• the risk that we are subject to data or other security breaches that may result in increased costs, violations of law, significant legal and financial exposure, and a loss of confidence in our security measures, which could have an adverse effect on our results of operations and our reputation;

• the risk that the failure to attract and retain key personnel, or effectively manage succession, could have an adverse impact on our results of operations;

• the risk that our investments in omni-channel shopping initiatives may not deliver the results we anticipate;

• the risk that comparable sales and margins will experience fluctuations;

• the risk that changes in our credit profile or deterioration in market conditions may limit our access to the capital markets and adversely impact our financial results or our business initiatives;

• the risk that updates or changes to our information technology (“IT”) systems may disrupt our operations;

• the risk that natural disasters, public health crises, political crises, or other catastrophic events could adversely affect our operations and financial results, or those of our franchisees or vendors;

• the risk that changes in the regulatory or administrative landscape could adversely affect our financial condition, strategies, and results of operations;

• the risk that we do not repurchase some or all of the shares we anticipate purchasing pursuant to our repurchase program; and

• the risk that we will not be successful in defending various proceedings, lawsuits, disputes, claims, and audits.

Additional information regarding factors that could cause results to differ can be found in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2015 and our other filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

Future economic and industry trends that could potentially impact net sales and profitability are difficult to predict. These forward-looking statements are based on information as of June 8, 2015, and we assume no obligation to publicly update or revise our forward-looking statements even if experience or future changes make it clear that any projected results expressed or implied therein will not be realized.

We suggest that this document be read in conjunction with Management’s Discussion and Analysis included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2015.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

Note 1. Basis of Presentation

The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of May 2, 2015 and May 3, 2014, the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income, the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income, and the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the thirteen weeks endedMay 2, 2015 and May 3, 2014 have been prepared by The Gap, Inc. (the “Company,” “we,” and “our”). In the opinion of management, such statements include all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary to present fairly our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows as of May 2, 2015 and May 3, 2014 and for all periods presented. The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of January 31, 2015 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 (“GAAP”) have been omitted from these interim financial statements. 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 31, 2015.

The results of operations for the thirteen weeks endedMay 2, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results that may be expected for the 52-week period ending January 30, 2016.

Note 2. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued an accounting standards update ("ASU") No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, to clarify the principles of recognizing revenue and create common revenue recognition guidance between U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. This ASU is effective retrospectively for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2016. We are currently assessing the potential impact of this ASU on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Note 3. Debt and Credit Facilities

($ in millions)	May 2, 2015			January 31, 2015			May 3, 2014
Notes	$	1,247		$	1,247		$	1,247
Japan Term Loan	105			106			146
Total long-term debt	1,352			1,353			1,393
Less: Current portion	(21		)	(21		)	(24		)
Total long-term debt, less current portion	$	1,331		$	1,332		$	1,369

As of May 2, 2015, January 31, 2015, and May 3, 2014, the estimated fair value of our $1.25 billion aggregate principal amount of 5.95 percent notes (the "Notes”) due April 2021 was $1.43 billion, $1.44 billion, and $1.42 billion, respectively, and was based on the quoted market price of the Notes (level 1 inputs) as of the last business day of the respective fiscal quarter. The aggregate principal amount of the Notes is recorded in long-term debt in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, net of the unamortized discount.

As of May 2, 2015, January 31, 2015, and May 3, 2014, the carrying amount of our 15 billion Japanese yen, four-year, unsecured term loan ("Japan Term Loan") approximated its fair value, as the interest rate varies depending on quoted market rates (level 1 inputs). Repayments of 2.5 billion Japanese yen ($21 million as of May 2, 2015) are payable on January 15 of each year, and commenced on January 15, 2015, with a final repayment of 7.5 billion Japanese yen ($62 million as of May 2, 2015) due on January 15, 2018. Interest is payable at least quarterly based on an interest rate equal to the Tokyo Interbank Offered Rate ("TIBOR") plus a fixed margin.

We have a $500 million, five-year, unsecured revolving credit facility (the “Facility”), which was set to expire in May 2018. On May 20, 2015, the Facility was amended under substantially similar terms to extend the expiration date to May 2020 and improve the pricing structure. There were no borrowings and no material outstanding standby letters of credit under the Facility as of May 2, 2015.

5

We maintain multiple agreements with third parties that make unsecured revolving credit facilities available for our operations in foreign locations (the “Foreign Facilities”). These Foreign Facilities are uncommitted and are generally available for borrowings, overdraft borrowings, and the issuance of bank guarantees. The total capacity of the Foreign Facilities was $50 million as of May 2, 2015. As of May 2, 2015, there were no borrowings under the Foreign Facilities. There were $12 million in bank guarantees issued and outstanding primarily related to store leases under the Foreign Facilities as of May 2, 2015.

We have bilateral unsecured standby letter of credit agreements that are uncommitted and do not have an expiration date. As of May 2, 2015, we had $21 million in standby letters of credit issued under these agreements. We also have a $50 million, two-year, unsecured committed letter of credit agreement, which expires in September 2016. We had no trade letters of credit issued under this letter of credit agreement as of May 2, 2015.

Note 4. Fair Value Measurements

There were no purchases, sales, issuances, or settlements related to recurring level 3 measurements during the thirteen weeks endedMay 2, 2015 or May 3, 2014. There were no transfers of financial assets or liabilities into or out of level 1 and level 2 during the thirteen weeks endedMay 2, 2015 or May 3, 2014.

Financial Assets and Liabilities

Financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis and cash equivalents are as follows:

			Fair Value Measurements at Reporting Date Using

We have highly liquid investments classified as cash equivalents, which are placed primarily in money market funds, time deposits, and commercial paper. These investments are classified as held-to-maturity based on our positive intent and ability to hold the securities to maturity. We value these investments at their original purchase prices plus interest that has accrued at the stated rate.

Derivative financial instruments primarily include foreign exchange forward contracts. The principal currencies hedged against changes in the U.S. dollar are British pounds, Canadian dollars, Euro, and Japanese yen. The fair value of the Company’s 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 Condensed 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 Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

We maintain the Gap Inc. Deferred Compensation Plan (“DCP”), which allows eligible employees to defer compensation up to a maximum amount. Plan investments are recorded at market value and are 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 in 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. 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 material impairment charges recorded for goodwill, other indefinite-lived intangible assets, or other long-lived assets for the thirteen weeks endedMay 2, 2015 or May 3, 2014.

Note 5. Derivative Financial Instruments

We operate in foreign countries, which exposes us to market risk associated with foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. 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 principal currencies hedged against changes in the U.S. dollar are British pounds, Canadian dollars, Euro, and Japanese yen. We do not enter into derivative financial contracts for trading purposes. Cash flows from derivative financial instruments are classified as cash flows from operating activities in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

Cash Flow Hedges

We designate the following foreign exchange forward contracts as cash flow hedges: (1) 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; (2) forward contracts used to hedge forecasted intercompany royalty payments denominated in foreign currencies received by entities whose functional currencies are U.S. dollars; and (3) forward contracts used to hedge forecasted intercompany revenue transactions related to merchandise sold from our regional purchasing entity, whose functional currency is the U.S. dollar, to certain international subsidiaries in their local currencies of British pounds and Euro. The foreign exchange forward contracts entered into to hedge forecasted merchandise purchases and related costs, intercompany royalty payments, and intercompany revenue transactions generally have terms of up to 24 months.

There were no material amounts recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income for the thirteen weeks endedMay 2, 2015 or May 3, 2014 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.

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 material amounts recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income for the thirteen weeks endedMay 2, 2015 or May 3, 2014 as a result of hedge ineffectiveness, hedge components excluded from the assessment of effectiveness, or the discontinuance of net investment hedges.

7

Other Derivatives Not Designated as Hedging Instruments

We enter into 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, as well as the remeasurement impact of the underlying intercompany balances, is recorded in operating expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income in the same period and generally offset.

Outstanding Notional Amounts

We had foreign exchange forward contracts outstanding in the following notional amounts:

(notional amounts in millions)	May 2, 2015		January 31, 2015		May 3, 2014
U.S. dollars (1)	$	1,977	$	1,395	$	1,583
Canadian dollars	C$	40	C$	14	C$	8
Euro	€	3	€	1	€	26

The majority of the unrealized gains and losses from designated cash flow hedges as of May 2, 2015 will be recognized in income within the next 12 months at the then-current values, which may differ from the fair values as of May 2, 2015 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 in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, and as such, the fair values shown above represent gross amounts. The amounts subject to enforceable master netting arrangements are $11 million, $1 million, and $1 million as of May 2, 2015, January 31, 2015, and May 3, 2014, respectively. If we did elect to offset, the net amounts of our derivative financial instruments in an asset position would be $107 million, $156 million, and $43 million and the net amounts of the derivative financial instruments in a liability position would be $2 million, zero, and $21 million as of May 2, 2015, January 31, 2015, and May 3, 2014, respectively.

See Note 4 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for disclosures on the fair value measurements of our derivative financial instruments.

The effective portion of gains and losses on foreign exchange forward contracts in cash flow hedging and net investment hedging relationships recorded in other comprehensive income and the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income, on a pre-tax basis, are as follows:

	13 Weeks Ended
($ in millions)	May 2, 2015			May 3, 2014

For the thirteen weeks endedMay 2, 2015 and May 3, 2014, there were no amounts of gain or loss reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income into net income for derivative financial instruments in net investment hedging relationships, as we did not sell or liquidate (or substantially liquidate) any of our hedged subsidiaries during the periods.

There were no material gains or losses on foreign exchange forward contracts not designated as hedging instruments that were recorded in operating expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income, on a pre-tax basis for the thirteen weeks endedMay 2, 2015 and May 3, 2014.

Note 6. Share Repurchases

In November 2013, we announced that the Board of Directors authorized a total of $1.0 billion for share repurchases, all of which was completed by the end of October 2014. In October 2014, we announced that the Board of Directors approved a $500 million share repurchase authorization, of which $72 million was remaining as of May 2, 2015. In February 2015, we announced that the Board of Directors approved a new $1.0 billion share repurchase authorization, of which the full amount was remaining as of May 2, 2015.

All except $13 million, $15 million and $19 million of total share repurchases were paid for as of May 2, 2015, January 31, 2015 and May 3, 2014, respectively.  All common stock repurchased is immediately retired.

Note 9. Income Taxes

The Company conducts business globally, and as a result, files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various state and foreign jurisdictions. In the normal course of business, we are subject to examination by taxing authorities throughout the world, including such major jurisdictions as the United States, Canada, France, China, Hong Kong, Japan, India, and the United Kingdom. We are no longer subject to U.S. federal income tax examinations for fiscal years before 2009, and with few exceptions, we are also no longer subject to U.S. state, local, or non-U.S. income tax examinations for fiscal years before 2008.

The Company engages in continual discussions with taxing authorities regarding tax matters in the various U.S. and foreign jurisdictions in the normal course of business. As of May 2, 2015, it is reasonably possible that we will recognize a decrease in gross unrecognized tax benefits within the next 12 months of up to $5 million, primarily due to the potential settlement of outstanding tax matters and the closing of audits. If we do recognize such a decrease, the net impact on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income would not be material.

During the thirteen weeks endedMay 2, 2015, we recognized an interest expense reversal of approximately $14 million primarily as a result of a favorable foreign tax ruling and actions of foreign tax authorities related to transfer pricing matters. We reduced our unrecognized tax benefits for this matter by $31 million, and there was no impact on the tax provision due to the offsetting decrease for the U.S. indirect effect of these unrecognized tax benefits.

Note 10. Earnings Per Share

Weighted-average number of shares used for earnings per share is as follows:

	13 Weeks Ended
(shares in millions)	May 2, 2015	May 3, 2014
Weighted-average number of shares - basic	421	445
Common stock equivalents	3	6
Weighted-average number of shares - diluted	424	451

The above computations of weighted-average number of shares – diluted exclude 2 million shares related to stock options and other stock awards for each of the thirteen weeks endedMay 2, 2015 and May 3, 2014 as their inclusion would have an anti-dilutive effect on earnings per share.

Note 11. 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 May 2, 2015, Actions filed against us included commercial, intellectual property, customer, employment, 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 May 2, 2015, January 31, 2015, and May 3, 2014, 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 as of May 2, 2015, January 31, 2015, and May 3, 2014 was not material for any individual Action or in total. Subsequent to May 2, 2015 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. Accordingly, developments, settlements, or resolutions may occur and impact income 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 Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements taken as a whole.

Note 12. Segment Information

The Gap, Inc. is a global retailer that sells apparel, accessories, and personal care products under the Gap, Old Navy, Banana Republic, Athleta, and Intermix brands. We identify our operating segments according to how our business activities are managed and evaluated. As of May 2, 2015, our operating segments included Gap Global, Old Navy Global, Banana Republic Global, Athleta, and Intermix. The operating results for the thirteen weeks ended May 2, 2015 and May 3, 2014 also includes Piperlime, which was discontinued as of April 30, 2015. 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 one reportable segment as of May 2, 2015.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

OUR BUSINESS

We are a global retailer offering apparel, accessories, and personal care products for men, women, and children under the Gap, Old Navy, Banana Republic, Athleta, and Intermix brands. We have Company-operated stores in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, France, Ireland, Japan, Italy, China, Hong Kong, and beginning in March 2014, Taiwan. We also have franchise agreements with unaffiliated franchisees to operate Gap, Banana Republic, and Old Navy stores throughout Asia, Australia, Europe, Latin America, the Middle East, and Africa. Under these agreements, third parties operate, or will operate, stores that sell apparel and related products under our brand names. Our products are also available to customers online through Company-owned websites and through the use of third parties that provide logistics and fulfillment services. In addition to operating in the specialty, outlet, online, and franchise channels, we also use our omni-channel capabilities to bridge the digital world and physical stores to further enhance our shopping experience for our customers. Our omni-channel services include order-in-store, reserve-in-store, find-in-store, and ship-from-store. Most of the products sold under our brand names are designed by us and manufactured by independent sources. We also sell products that are designed and manufactured by branded third parties, primarily at our Intermix brand.

OVERVIEW

Financial results for the first quarter of fiscal 2015 are as follows:

• Net sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2015 decreased 3 percent compared with the first quarter of fiscal 2014. Excluding the impact of foreign exchange, our net sales decreased 1 percent for the first quarter of fiscal 2015 compared with the first quarter of fiscal 2014. See Net Sales discussion for impact of foreign exchange.

• Comparable sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2015 decreased 4 percent compared with a 1 percent decrease for the first quarter of fiscal 2014.

• Gross profit for the first quarter of fiscal 2015 was $1.4 billion compared with $1.5 billion for the first quarter of fiscal 2014. Gross margin for the first quarter of fiscal 2015 was 37.8 percent compared with 38.8 percent for the first quarter of fiscal 2014.

• Operating margin for the first quarter of fiscal 2015 was 10.6 percent compared with 11.7 percent for the first quarter of fiscal 2014.

• Net income for the first quarter of fiscal 2015 was $239 million compared with $260 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2014, and diluted earnings per share was $0.56 for the first quarter of fiscal 2015 compared with $0.58 for the first quarter of fiscal 2014.

• During the first quarter of fiscal 2015, we distributed $329 million to shareholders through share repurchases and dividends.

Our full year business priorities for fiscal 2015 remain as follows:

• creating product with more consistent product acceptance by our customers;

• evolving our customer experience to better reflect the intersection of digital and physical;

• attracting, retaining, and developing great talent; and

• growing globally across our brands and channels.

For fiscal 2015, we expect to continue our investment in digital capabilities and to further enhance our shopping experience for our customers. We also plan to continue our global growth, including opening additional stores in Asia with a focus on Gap China, Old Navy China, and Old Navy Japan. In addition, we also expect to open additional Athleta stores in the United States. Turning around Gap brand remains a top priority as we focus on reestablishing the brand product aesthetic while concurrently reviewing the store fleet for opportunities to optimize and improve productivity.

In fiscal 2015, we expect that foreign exchange rate fluctuations will continue to have a meaningful negative impact on our results, particularly in our largest foreign subsidiaries in Canada and Japan. With the depreciation of the Canadian dollar, Japanese yen, and other foreign currencies, we expect net sales translated into U.S. dollars will decrease and negatively impact our total Company net sales growth. In addition, we expect gross margins for our foreign subsidiaries to be negatively impacted as our merchandise purchases are primarily in U.S. dollars. We expect this negative impact of foreign exchange rate fluctuations to be partially offset by the favorable impact of translation of expenses in foreign currencies into U.S. dollars. In addition to the impact of the foreign exchange rate fluctuations, we also expect that delayed merchandise receipts at the U.S. West Coast ports during the first half of fiscal 2015 will have a meaningful negative impact on our fiscal 2015 operating results.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net Sales

See Note 12 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 in this Form 10-Q, for net sales by brand and region.

Comparable Sales

The percentage change in comparable ("Comp") sales by global brand and for total Company, as compared with the preceding year, is as follows:

	13 Weeks Ended
	May 2, 2015		May 3, 2014
Gap Global	(10	)%	(5	)%
Old Navy Global	3	%	1	%
Banana Republic Global	(8	)%	(1	)%
The Gap, Inc.	(4	)%	(1	)%

Comparable online sales favorably impacted total Company Comp sales by 1 percent and 3 percent in the first quarter of fiscal 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Only Company-operated stores are included in the calculations of Comp sales. The calculation of total Company Comp sales includes the results of Athleta and Intermix but excludes the results of our franchise business.

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.

Online Comp sales are defined as sales through online channels in those countries where we have existing Comp store sales.

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

Gap and Banana Republic outlet and factory stores are reflected in each of the respective brands.

Net Sales

Our net sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2015 decreased $117 million, or 3 percent, compared with the first quarter of fiscal 2014 primarily due to the unfavorable impact of foreign exchange of $88 million and a decrease in net sales primarily at Gap and Banana Republic; partially offset by an increase in net sales at Old Navy. The unfavorable impact of foreign exchange was primarily due to the weakening of the Japanese yen and Canadian dollar against the U.S. dollar. The foreign exchange impact is the translation impact if net sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2014 were translated at exchange rates applicable during the first quarter of fiscal 2015. Excluding the impact of foreign exchange, our net sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2015 decreased 1 percent on a constant currency basis compared with the first quarter of fiscal 2014. We believe this metric enhances the visibility of underlying business trends by excluding the impact of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations.

Cost of Goods Sold and Occupancy Expenses

	13 Weeks Ended
($ in millions)	May 2, 2015			May 3, 2014
Cost of goods sold and occupancy expenses	$	2,275		$	2,308
Gross profit	$	1,382		$	1,466
Cost of goods sold and occupancy expenses as a percentage of net sales	62.2		%	61.2		%
Gross margin	37.8		%	38.8		%

Cost of goods sold and occupancy expenses increased 1.0 percentage point in the first quarter of fiscal 2015 compared with the first quarter of fiscal 2014.

• Cost of goods sold was flat as a percentage of net sales in the first quarter of fiscal 2015 compared with the first quarter of fiscal 2014.

• Occupancy expenses increased 1.0 percentage point in the first quarter of fiscal 2015 compared with the first quarter of fiscal 2014, primarily driven by a decrease in net sales without a corresponding decrease in occupancy expenses.

Operating Expenses

	13 Weeks Ended
($ in millions)	May 2, 2015			May 3, 2014
Operating expenses	$	996		$	1,023
Operating expenses as a percentage of net sales	27.2		%	27.1		%
Operating margin	10.6		%	11.7		%

Operating expenses decreased $27 million, but increased 0.1 percentage point, in the first quarter of fiscal 2015 compared with the first quarter of fiscal 2014. The decrease in operating expenses was primarily due to the favorable translation impact as a result of foreign exchange rate fluctuations.

Interest Expense

	13 Weeks Ended
($ in millions)	May 2, 2015		May 3, 2014
Interest expense	$	5	$	17

Interest expense for the first quarter of fiscal 2015 includes $19 million of interest on overall borrowings and other obligations mainly related to our $1.25 billion 5.95 percent Notes, partially offset by a reversal of approximately $14 million of tax-related interest expense primarily resulting from a favorable foreign tax ruling and actions of foreign tax authorities related to transfer pricing matters. Interest expense for the first quarter of fiscal 2014 primarily consists of interest on overall borrowings and other obligations mainly related to our $1.25 billion 5.95 percent Notes.

Income Taxes

	13 Weeks Ended
($ in millions)	May 2, 2015			May 3, 2014
Income taxes	$	143		$	166
Effective tax rate	37.4		%	39.0		%

The decrease in the effective tax rate for the first quarter of fiscal 2015 compared with the first quarter of fiscal 2014 was primarily due to the indefinite reinvestment of certain additional foreign fiscal 2015 earnings to be used to fund international growth and the favorable impact of changes in the mix of pre-tax income between our domestic and international operations.

16

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Our largest source of cash flows is cash collections from the sale of our merchandise. Our primary uses of cash include merchandise inventory purchases, occupancy costs, personnel-related expenses, purchases of property and equipment, share repurchases, and payment of taxes. As of May 2, 2015, cash and cash equivalents were $1.2 billion. As of May 2, 2015, over half of our cash and cash equivalents were held in the U.S. and are generally accessible without any limitations.

We believe that current cash balances and cash flows from our operations will be sufficient to support our business operations, including growth initiatives and planned capital expenditures, for the next 12 months and beyond. We are also able to supplement near-term liquidity, if necessary, with our $500 million revolving credit facility.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities during the first quarter of fiscal 2015 decreased $302 million compared with the first quarter of fiscal 2014, primarily due to the following:

• a decrease of $181 million related to other current assets and other long-term assets primarily due to the change in timing of payments received related to our credit card program;

• a decrease of $138 million related to merchandise inventory primarily due to the volume and timing of receipts;

• a decrease of $108 million related to lease incentives and other long-term liabilities primarily due to the receipt of an upfront payment in the first quarter of fiscal 2014 related to the amendment of our credit card program agreement with the third-party financing company, which is being amortized over the term of the contract;

• a decrease of $21 million in net income; partially offset by

• an increase of $124 million related to accounts payable primarily due to the volume and timing of merchandise payments; and

• an increase of $60 million related to accrued expenses and other current liabilities primarily due to a lower bonus payout in the first quarter of fiscal 2015 compared with the bonus payout in the first quarter of fiscal 2014.

We fund inventory expenditures during normal and peak periods through cash flows from operating activities and available cash. Our business follows a seasonal pattern, with sales peaking during the end-of-year holiday period. The seasonality of our operations may lead to significant fluctuations in certain asset and liability accounts between fiscal year-end and subsequent interim periods.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

Net cash used for investing activities during the first quarter of fiscal 2015 decreased $13 million compared with the first quarter of fiscal 2014, primarily due to the following:

• $12 million less property and equipment purchases.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

Net cash used for financing activities during the first quarter of fiscal 2015 increased $25 million compared with the first quarter of fiscal 2014, primarily due to the following:

• $19 million more tax withholding payments related to the vesting of stock units.

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, as we require regular capital expenditures to build and maintain stores and purchase new equipment to improve our business. We use this metric internally, as we believe our sustained ability to generate free cash flow is an important driver of value creation. However, this non-GAAP financial measure is not intended to supersede or replace our GAAP results.

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

	13 Weeks Ended
($ in millions)	May 2, 2015			May 3, 2014
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	211		$	513

Long-Term Debt and Credit Facilities

Certain financial information about the Company's long-term debt and credit facilities is set forth under the heading "Debt and Credit Facilities" in Note 3 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q.

Dividend Policy

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

As a multinational company, we are subject to various proceedings, lawsuits, disputes, and claims arising in the ordinary course of our business. Many of these Actions raise complex factual and legal issues and are subject to uncertainties. Actions filed against us from time to time include commercial, intellectual property, customer, employment, 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.

We cannot predict with assurance the outcome of Actions brought against us. Accordingly, developments, settlements, or resolutions may occur and impact income 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.

Roberta Silten

Dear Bobbi:

This letter is to confirm our offer to you as Executive Vice President, Global Talent and Sustainability, Gap Inc.

Salary. Effective on your Start Date, your annual salary will be $535,000, payable every two weeks.

You are scheduled to receive a compensation review in March 2016, based on your time in the position.

Start Date. Your first day in your new position will be May 4, 2015, reporting to Art Peck, Chief Executive Officer, Gap Inc.

Annual Bonus. Based on your position as Executive Vice President, you will be eligible for an annual bonus based on Gap Inc. and/or Division financial objectives (weighted at 75%) and individual performance (weighted at 25%). Under the current program, your annual target bonus will be 80% of your base salary. Depending on results, your actual bonus, if any, may be higher or lower and can reach a maximum of 160%. Bonus payments will be prorated based on active time in position, divisional or country assignment and changes in base salary or incentive target that may occur during the fiscal year including any changes related to your acceptance of this position. Bonuses for fiscal 2015 are scheduled for payment in March 2016 and you must be employed by Gap Inc. on the payment date. Gap Inc. has the right to modify the program at any time. Management discretion can be used to modify the final award amount. Bonus payments are subject to supplemental income tax withholding.

Special Stock Award. The Compensation and Management Development Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Committee”), pursuant to the provisions of Gap Inc.’s stock plan, has approved a stock award grant covering 15,000 shares of Gap Inc. common stock with an effective grant date of May 4, 2015. Awards are in the form of units that are paid in Gap Inc. stock upon vesting. The award will become vested as shown in the schedule below, provided you are employed by Gap Inc. on the vesting date. Awards are subject to income tax withholding upon vesting.

Stock Award of 7,500 shares vesting two years from grant date.

Stock Award of 7,500 shares vesting three years from grant date.

Long-Term Growth Program. Based on your position as Executive Vice President, you will be eligible to participate in the Long-Term Growth Program that rewards achievement of Gap Inc. and/or Division financial objectives over a three year period. Under the current program, your target opportunity to earn performance shares is 100% of your base salary. Depending on results, your actual performance shares, if any, may be higher or lower and can reach a maximum of 300% of target shares. Awards are made in the form of performance shares that are paid in Gap Inc. stock upon vesting.

For the current fiscal 2015-2017 performance cycle, the Committee has approved a grant of performance shares covering a target amount of 9,686 shares of Gap Inc. common stock with an effective grant date of May 4, 2015. The shares were prorated for this fiscal year based on active time in your new role. The number of earned performance shares, if any, will be determined no later than March 2018. Payout is subject to certification by the Committee and the provisions of Gap Inc.’s stock plan. Earned shares will vest 50% on the date the Committee certifies attainment and 50% one year from the certification date provided you are employed by Gap Inc. on the vesting dates. Gap Inc. has the right to modify the program at any time. Committee discretion can be used to modify the final share amount. Shares are subject to income tax withholding upon vesting.

The Long-Term Growth Program replaces the annual Performance Stock Award Program, for which you are no longer eligible. However, to the extent earned, you will receive a final award under the Performance Stock Award Program in March 2016. The award will be prorated based on time in your previous position.

Termination/Severance. In the event that your employment is involuntarily terminated by the Company for reasons other than For Cause (as defined below) prior to February 13, 2018, the Company will provide you the following after your "separation from service" within the meaning of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code (the "Separation from

(1) Your then current salary, at regular pay cycle intervals, for eighteen months commencing in the first regular pay cycle following the Release Deadline (the “severance period”).  Payments will cease if you accept other employment or professional relationship with a competitor of the Company (defined as another company primarily engaged in the apparel design or apparel retail business or any retailer with apparel sales in excess of $500 million annually), or if you breach your remaining obligations to the Company (e.g., your duty to protect confidential information, agreement not to solicit Company employees).  Payments will be reduced by any compensation you receive (as received) during the severance period from other employment or professional relationship with a non-competitor. Each payment will be treated as a separate payment for purposes of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code.

(2) Through the end of the period in which you are receiving payments under paragraph (1) above, if you properly elect and maintain COBRA coverage, payment of a portion of your COBRA premium in a method as determined by the Company. This payment may be taxable income to you and subject to tax withholding. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company’s payment of the monthly COBRA premium shall cease immediately if the Company determines in its discretion that paying such monthly COBRA premium would result in the Company being in violation of, or incurring any fine, penalty, or excise tax under, applicable law (including, without limitation, any penalty imposed for violation of the nondiscrimination requirements under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act or guidance issued thereunder).

(3) Through the end of the period in which you are receiving payments under paragraph (1) above, reimbursement for your costs to maintain the same or comparable financial counseling program the Company provides to senior executives in effect at the time of your Separation from Service.  The amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement during a calendar year shall not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement in any other calendar year.  Reimbursement shall be made on or before the last day of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the reimbursement is incurred but not later than the end of the second calendar year following the calendar year of your Separation from Service.

(4) Prorated Annual Bonus for the fiscal year in which the termination occurs, on the condition that you have worked at least 3 months of the fiscal year in which you are terminated, based on actual financial results and 100% standard for the individual component. Such bonus will paid in March of the year following termination at the time Annual Bonuses for the year of termination are paid, but in no event later than the 15th day of the third month following the later of the end of the Company’s taxable year or the end of the calendar year in which such termination occurs.

(5) Accelerated vesting (but not settlement) of restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and performance shares that remain subject only to time vesting conditions (excluding any performance shares that remain subject to performance-based vesting conditions) scheduled to vest prior to April 1 following the fiscal year of termination. Shares of the Company stock in settlement of any vested RSUs and/or performance shares under this section will be delivered on the applicable regularly scheduled vesting dates subject to the terms and conditions of the applicable award agreement including, without limitation, the Internal Revenue Code Section 409A six-month delay language thereunder to the extent necessary to avoid taxation under Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code.

Reg. Section 1.409A-1(b)(9)(v))  exceeds the limit under Treas. Reg. Section 1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii)(A) and you are a “specified employee” under Treas. Reg. Section 1.409A-1(i) on the date of your Separation from Service, then the excess will be paid to you no earlier than the date which is six months after the date of such separation (or such earlier time permitted under Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Internal Revenue Code). This delay will only be imposed to the extent required to avoid the tax for which you would otherwise be liable under Section 409A(a)(1)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code.  Any delayed payment instead will be made on the first business day following the expiration of the six month period, as applicable (or such earlier time permitted under Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Internal Revenue Code). Payments that are not delayed will be paid in accordance with their terms determined without regard to such delay.

The term “For Cause” shall mean a good faith determination by the Company that your employment be terminated for any of the following reasons:  (1) indictment, conviction or admission of any crimes involving theft, fraud or moral turpitude; (2) engaging in gross neglect of duties, including willfully failing or refusing to implement or follow direction

You agree that in the event your employment terminates for any reason, you will immediately deliver to Gap Inc. all company property, including all documents, materials or property of any description, or any reproduction of such materials, containing or pertaining to any Confidential Information.

You further agree that you will not directly or indirectly, on behalf of yourself, any other person or entity, interfere or attempt to interfere with Gap Inc.’s relationship with any person who at any time was an employee, consultant, customer or vendor or otherwise has or had a business relationship with Gap Inc.

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued an accounting standards update ("ASU") No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, to clarify the principles of recognizing revenue and create common revenue recognition guidance between U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. This ASU is effective retrospectively for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2016. We are currently assessing the potential impact of this ASU on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Commitments and Contingencies

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 May 2, 2015, Actions filed against us included commercial, intellectual property, customer, employment, 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 May 2, 2015, January 31, 2015, and May 3, 2014, 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 as of May 2, 2015, January 31, 2015, and May 3, 2014 was not material for any individual Action or in total. Subsequent to May 2, 2015 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. Accordingly, developments, settlements, or resolutions may occur and impact income 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 Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements taken as a whole.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]

Derivative Financial Instruments

Derivative Financial Instruments

We operate in foreign countries, which exposes us to market risk associated with foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. 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 principal currencies hedged against changes in the U.S. dollar are British pounds, Canadian dollars, Euro, and Japanese yen. We do not enter into derivative financial contracts for trading purposes. Cash flows from derivative financial instruments are classified as cash flows from operating activities in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

Cash Flow Hedges

We designate the following foreign exchange forward contracts as cash flow hedges: (1) 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; (2) forward contracts used to hedge forecasted intercompany royalty payments denominated in foreign currencies received by entities whose functional currencies are U.S. dollars; and (3) forward contracts used to hedge forecasted intercompany revenue transactions related to merchandise sold from our regional purchasing entity, whose functional currency is the U.S. dollar, to certain international subsidiaries in their local currencies of British pounds and Euro. The foreign exchange forward contracts entered into to hedge forecasted merchandise purchases and related costs, intercompany royalty payments, and intercompany revenue transactions generally have terms of up to 24 months.

There were no material amounts recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income for the thirteen weeks endedMay 2, 2015 or May 3, 2014 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.

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 material amounts recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income for the thirteen weeks endedMay 2, 2015 or May 3, 2014 as a result of hedge ineffectiveness, hedge components excluded from the assessment of effectiveness, or the discontinuance of net investment hedges.

Other Derivatives Not Designated as Hedging Instruments

We enter into 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, as well as the remeasurement impact of the underlying intercompany balances, is recorded in operating expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income in the same period and generally offset.

Outstanding Notional Amounts

We had foreign exchange forward contracts outstanding in the following notional amounts:

(notional amounts in millions)	May 2, 2015		January 31, 2015		May 3, 2014
U.S. dollars (1)	$	1,977	$	1,395	$	1,583

The majority of the unrealized gains and losses from designated cash flow hedges as of May 2, 2015 will be recognized in income within the next 12 months at the then-current values, which may differ from the fair values as of May 2, 2015 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 in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, and as such, the fair values shown above represent gross amounts. The amounts subject to enforceable master netting arrangements are $11 million, $1 million, and $1 million as of May 2, 2015, January 31, 2015, and May 3, 2014, respectively. If we did elect to offset, the net amounts of our derivative financial instruments in an asset position would be $107 million, $156 million, and $43 million and the net amounts of the derivative financial instruments in a liability position would be $2 million, zero, and $21 million as of May 2, 2015, January 31, 2015, and May 3, 2014, respectively.

See Note 4 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for disclosures on the fair value measurements of our derivative financial instruments.

The effective portion of gains and losses on foreign exchange forward contracts in cash flow hedging and net investment hedging relationships recorded in other comprehensive income and the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income, on a pre-tax basis, are as follows:

For the thirteen weeks endedMay 2, 2015 and May 3, 2014, there were no amounts of gain or loss reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income into net income for derivative financial instruments in net investment hedging relationships, as we did not sell or liquidate (or substantially liquidate) any of our hedged subsidiaries during the periods.

There were no material gains or losses on foreign exchange forward contracts not designated as hedging instruments that were recorded in operating expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income, on a pre-tax basis for the thirteen weeks endedMay 2, 2015 and May 3, 2014.

We have highly liquid investments classified as cash equivalents, which are placed primarily in money market funds, time deposits, and commercial paper. These investments are classified as held-to-maturity based on our positive intent and ability to hold the securities to maturity. We value these investments at their original purchase prices plus interest that has accrued at the stated rate.

Derivative financial instruments primarily include foreign exchange forward contracts. The principal currencies hedged against changes in the U.S. dollar are British pounds, Canadian dollars, Euro, and Japanese yen. The fair value of the Company’s 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 Condensed 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 Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

We maintain the Gap Inc. Deferred Compensation Plan (“DCP”), which allows eligible employees to defer compensation up to a maximum amount. Plan investments are recorded at market value and are 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 in 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. 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 material impairment charges recorded for goodwill, other indefinite-lived intangible assets, or other long-lived assets for the thirteen weeks endedMay 2, 2015 or May 3, 2014.

Income Taxes

Income Taxes

The Company conducts business globally, and as a result, files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various state and foreign jurisdictions. In the normal course of business, we are subject to examination by taxing authorities throughout the world, including such major jurisdictions as the United States, Canada, France, China, Hong Kong, Japan, India, and the United Kingdom. We are no longer subject to U.S. federal income tax examinations for fiscal years before 2009, and with few exceptions, we are also no longer subject to U.S. state, local, or non-U.S. income tax examinations for fiscal years before 2008.

The Company engages in continual discussions with taxing authorities regarding tax matters in the various U.S. and foreign jurisdictions in the normal course of business. As of May 2, 2015, it is reasonably possible that we will recognize a decrease in gross unrecognized tax benefits within the next 12 months of up to $5 million, primarily due to the potential settlement of outstanding tax matters and the closing of audits. If we do recognize such a decrease, the net impact on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income would not be material.

During the thirteen weeks endedMay 2, 2015, we recognized an interest expense reversal of approximately $14 million primarily as a result of a favorable foreign tax ruling and actions of foreign tax authorities related to transfer pricing matters. We reduced our unrecognized tax benefits for this matter by $31 million, and there was no impact on the tax provision due to the offsetting decrease for the U.S. indirect effect of these unrecognized tax benefits.

As of May 2, 2015, January 31, 2015, and May 3, 2014, the estimated fair value of our $1.25 billion aggregate principal amount of 5.95 percent notes (the "Notes”) due April 2021 was $1.43 billion, $1.44 billion, and $1.42 billion, respectively, and was based on the quoted market price of the Notes (level 1 inputs) as of the last business day of the respective fiscal quarter. The aggregate principal amount of the Notes is recorded in long-term debt in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, net of the unamortized discount.

As of May 2, 2015, January 31, 2015, and May 3, 2014, the carrying amount of our 15 billion Japanese yen, four-year, unsecured term loan ("Japan Term Loan") approximated its fair value, as the interest rate varies depending on quoted market rates (level 1 inputs). Repayments of 2.5 billion Japanese yen ($21 million as of May 2, 2015) are payable on January 15 of each year, and commenced on January 15, 2015, with a final repayment of 7.5 billion Japanese yen ($62 million as of May 2, 2015) due on January 15, 2018. Interest is payable at least quarterly based on an interest rate equal to the Tokyo Interbank Offered Rate ("TIBOR") plus a fixed margin.

We have a $500 million, five-year, unsecured revolving credit facility (the “Facility”), which was set to expire in May 2018. On May 20, 2015, the Facility was amended under substantially similar terms to extend the expiration date to May 2020 and improve the pricing structure. There were no borrowings and no material outstanding standby letters of credit under the Facility as of May 2, 2015.

We maintain multiple agreements with third parties that make unsecured revolving credit facilities available for our operations in foreign locations (the “Foreign Facilities”). These Foreign Facilities are uncommitted and are generally available for borrowings, overdraft borrowings, and the issuance of bank guarantees. The total capacity of the Foreign Facilities was $50 million as of May 2, 2015. As of May 2, 2015, there were no borrowings under the Foreign Facilities. There were $12 million in bank guarantees issued and outstanding primarily related to store leases under the Foreign Facilities as of May 2, 2015.

We have bilateral unsecured standby letter of credit agreements that are uncommitted and do not have an expiration date. As of May 2, 2015, we had $21 million in standby letters of credit issued under these agreements. We also have a $50 million, two-year, unsecured committed letter of credit agreement, which expires in September 2016. We had no trade letters of credit issued under this letter of credit agreement as of May 2, 2015.
