GAP INC. REPORTS SECOND QUARTER FISCAL 2022 RESULTS
SAN FRANCISCO – August 25, 2022 – Gap Inc. (NYSE: GPS), a portfolio of purpose-led, billion-dollar lifestyle brands including Old Navy, Gap, Banana Republic, and Athleta, and the largest specialty apparel company in the U.S., today reported financial results for its second quarter ended July 30, 2022.
“This is a pivotal moment in time. While we search for a new leader, I am taking on the role as Interim President & CEO of Gap Inc. with a deep commitment to the company’s success and impatience for change. Having navigated the global retail industry across brands and markets, I am not approaching this work from the sidelines,” said Bob Martin, Executive Chairman and Interim CEO, Gap Inc. “We are taking actions to better optimize profitability and cash flow in the near term, reducing operating costs as well as impairing unproductive inventory. While our elevated inventory and pressured margins are current realities against unsettled market conditions, they do not define our ability to capitalize on Gap Inc.’s strengths to win."
Mr. Martin continued, “Gap Inc.’s iconic brands, powerful assets, well-established values and scaled omni-platform are central to our strategic direction. Our team has the capabilities to deliver what our customers, and our shareholders, expect -- what’s needed for profitable growth. Importantly, as we adopt behaviors that enable sustainable change, I’m confident we will unleash our potential and drive value creation over the long term.”

Merchandise margins were negatively impacted by an estimated $50 million, or 130 basis points, of incremental transitory air freight costs, and the remaining decline of approximately 570 basis points was driven by higher discounting, primarily at Old Navy, and inflationary commodity price increases. The declines were partially offset by the benefit of lower discounting at Banana Republic.

•Reported operating loss was $28 million in the quarter; reported operating margin of (0.7%). Adjusted operating income was $65 million; adjusted operating margin of 1.7%. Adjusted operating income and margin exclude the inventory impairment and a $35 million charge related to the transition of Old Navy’s Mexico business.

Second Quarter Fiscal 2022 – Global Brand Results
Old Navy:
•Net sales of $2.1 billion, down 13% compared to last year. Sales in the quarter were negatively impacted by size and assortment imbalances, ongoing inventory delays, product acceptance issues in some key categories as well as slowing demand stemming from the lower-income consumer.
•Comparable sales were down 15%.
Gap:
•Net sales of $881 million, down 10% compared to last year. The brand was impacted by category mix imbalances during the quarter. The decrease in net sales was also driven by strategic store closures. In addition, the Gap outlet business is experiencing near-term softness stemming from inflationary pressures impacting the lower-income consumer.
•Global comparable sales were down 7%. North America comparable sales were down 10%.
Banana Republic:
•Net sales of $539 million, up 9% compared to last year. The brand maintains its focus on delivering quality product through a differentiated experience. It continues to capitalize on the current shift in consumer trends while realizing ongoing benefits since last year’s brand relaunch.
•Comparable sales were up 8%.
Athleta:
•Net sales of $344 million, up 1% compared to last year. While the brand continues to make progress in driving awareness and establishing authority in the women’s active and wellness category, it is experiencing softness related to the shift in consumer preference from athleisure to occasion and work-based categories as well as modest spring/summer product acceptance challenges.
•Comparable sales were down 8%.
Fiscal Year 2022 Outlook
“We have four strong brands and leverage in the portfolio to deliver over the long-term, however our recent execution challenges combined with the uncertain macro trends requires us to manage the levers in our control and take the actions necessary to drive improvement across our entire business,” said Katrina O’Connell, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, Gap Inc. “In the near-term, we are taking actions to sequentially reduce inventory, rebalance our assortments to better meet changing consumer needs, aggressively manage and reevaluate investments, and fortifying our balance sheet. While we have work to do, we believe these are the right initial steps to position Gap Inc. back on its path toward growth, margin expansion, and delivering value for our shareholders over the long term.”
Given the actions the company has underway and in midst of a CEO transition, combined with the uncertain macro-environment, the company is withdrawing its prior fiscal 2022 outlook. The company is providing the following commentary related to its outlook for the remainder of fiscal 2022 and will share further details on its second quarter fiscal 2022 results conference call today at 2:00 pm Pacific Time.
Sales:
•Coming off of peak inflation and the higher gas prices particularly impacting the lower-income consumer in June, the company has seen an improvement in sales trends in July and into August consistent with many other retailers. While the company is making progress balancing its assortments, it remains cautiously optimistic in light of the consumer environment as it relates to its revenue in the second half of fiscal 2022.
Gross Margin and Inventory:
•In the second half of fiscal 2022, air freight expense is expected to normalize and the company will be anniversarying last year’s air freight investments resulting in roughly 400 basis points of margin leverage versus last year. Roughly half of the air freight leverage is expected to be offset by continued inflationary cost deleverage and ROD is expected to be flat or deleverage slightly in the second half of fiscal 2022.
•While the company is taking actions to balance its assortment and right size inventory, the company has seen the most significant variability versus its expectations in its discount rate. Further limiting near-term discount rate visibility is the uncertain consumer environment and increasingly promotional environment.
•The company expects third quarter ending inventory growth to moderate substantially and is targeting negative inventories versus last year by the end of fiscal 2022 as a result of its inventory actions, reduction of receipts, and anniversary of higher in-transit levels last year. By Spring, the company expects to begin to lean into its responsive levers, providing the flexibility to better align inventory levels with demand trends.
SG&A:
•The company is taking action to reduce operating expenses, which is expected to have a more significant impact in fiscal 2023 and offset the normalized incentive compensation next year.
Capital Expenditures:
•The company has cut or deferred some capital spending and reduced the number of Old Navy new stores slated for the back half of the year and now expects capital expenditures of approximately $650 million in fiscal 2022.
Other:
•The company expects to open about 30 to 40 Athleta stores and 20 to 30 Old Navy stores in fiscal year 2022. As part of its 350-store closure plan, the company continues to expect to close about 50 Gap and Banana Republic stores in North America during the year.
•The company continues to expect a net benefit to GAAP earnings in the third quarter due to the sale of its UK distribution center now that its European partnership model transition is complete. This will be reflected in the company’s adjusted diluted earnings per share in the third quarter fiscal 2022.
•The company has completed its goal of offsetting dilution in fiscal 2022 and does not anticipate further share repurchases for the remainder of the year.

The non-GAAP measures described below are intended to provide investors with additional useful information about the company’s financial performance, to enhance the overall understanding of its past performance and future prospects and to allow for greater transparency with respect to important metrics used by management for financial and operating decision-making. The company presents these non-GAAP financial measures to assist investors in seeing its financial performance from management's view and because it believes they provide an additional tool for investors to use in computing the company's core financial performance over multiple periods with other companies in its industry.

The non-GAAP measures used by the company should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP and may not be the same as similarly titled measures used by other companies due to possible differences in method and in items or events being adjusted.

FREE CASH FLOW
Free cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure. We believe free cash flow is an important metric because it represents a measure of how much cash a company has available for discretionary and non-discretionary items after the deduction of capital expenditures. We require regular capital expenditures including technology improvements to automate processes, engage with customers, and optimize our supply chain in addition to building and maintaining stores. We use this metric internally, as we believe our sustained ability to generate free cash flow is an important driver of value creation. However, this non-GAAP financial measure is not intended to supersede or replace our GAAP results.
