NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

Note 1. Basis of Presentation

The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of July 30, 2011 and July 31, 2010, the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended July 30, 2011 and July 31, 2010, and the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the twenty-six weeks ended July 30, 2011 and July 31, 2010 have been prepared by The Gap, Inc. (the “Company,” “we,” and “our”), without audit. 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 July 30, 2011 and July 31, 2010 and for all periods presented. The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of January 29, 2011 has been derived from our audited financial statements.

We identify our operating segments based on the way we manage and evaluate our business activities. We have two reportable segments: Stores and Direct.

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 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 29, 2011.

The results of operations for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended July 30, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results that may be expected for the fifty-two week period ending January 28, 2012.

Note 2. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued an accounting standards update to revise the manner in which entities present comprehensive income in their financial statements. This guidance requires entities to present each component of net income along with total net income, each component of other comprehensive income (“OCI”) along with a total for OCI, and a total amount for comprehensive income, either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. This accounting standards update is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011. We will adopt the provisions of this accounting standards update in the first quarter of fiscal 2012.

Note 3. Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill and intangible assets consist of the following and are included in other long-term assets:

($ in millions)	July 30, 2011			January 29, 2011			July 31, 2010
Goodwill	$	99		$	99		$	99
Trade name	$	54		$	54		$	54
Intangible assets subject to amortization	$	15		$	15		$	15
Less: Accumulated amortization		(14	)		(12	)		(10	)
Intangible assets subject to amortization, net	$	1		$	3		$	5

All of the goodwill and intangible assets above have been allocated to the Direct reportable segment.

During the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended July 30, 2011 and July 31, 2010, there were no changes in the carrying amount of goodwill or the trade name. Intangible assets subject to amortization, consisting primarily of customer relationships, are amortized over a weighted-average amortization period of four years. Amortization expense for intangible assets subject to amortization was $1 million for each of the thirteen weeks ended July 30, 2011 and July 31, 2010 and $2 million for each of the twenty-six weeks ended July 30, 2011 and July 31, 2010 and is recorded in operating expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

Note 4. Debt

In April 2011, we issued $1.25 billion aggregate principal amount of 5.95 percent notes (the “Notes”) due April 2021 and received proceeds of $1.24 billion in cash, net of underwriting and other fees of $11 million. The net proceeds are available for general corporate purposes, including repurchases of our common stock. Interest is payable semi-annually on April 12 and October 12 of each year, commencing on October 12, 2011. We have an option to call the Notes in whole or in part at any time at our expense. The Notes agreement is unsecured and does not contain any financial covenants. The amount recorded in long-term debt in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets for the Notes was $1.25 billion as of July 30, 2011 and is equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Notes, net of the unamortized discount. The estimated fair value of the Notes was $1.23 billion as of July 30, 2011 and was based on the quoted market price of the Notes as of the last business day of the thirteen-week period ended July 30, 2011.

In April 2011, we also entered into a $400 million, five-year, unsecured term loan due April 2016, which was funded in May 2011. Repayments of $40 million are payable annually on April 7 of each year, commencing on April 7, 2012, with a final repayment of $240 million due on April 7, 2016. In addition, interest is payable at least quarterly based on an interest rate equal to the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) plus a margin based on our long-term senior unsecured credit ratings. The term loan agreement contains financial and other covenants including, but not limited to, limitations on liens and subsidiary debt as well as the maintenance of two financial ratios – a fixed charge coverage ratio and a leverage ratio. Violation of these covenants could result in a default under the term loan agreement, which would require the immediate repayment of outstanding amounts. The estimated fair value of the term loan was $400 million as of July 30, 2011. The carrying value of the term loan approximates its fair value, as the interest rate varies depending on quoted market rates and our credit rating.

Long-term debt as of July 30, 2011 consists of the following:

($ in millions)
Notes	$	1,246
Term loan		400
Total long-term debt		1,646
Less: Current portion		(40	)
Total long-term debt, less current portion	$	1,606

In conjunction with our financings, we obtained new long-term senior unsecured credit ratings from Moody’s Investors Service (“Moody’s”) and Fitch Ratings (“Fitch”). Moody’s assigned a rating of Baa3, and Fitch assigned a rating of BBB-. Standard & Poor’s Rating Service (“Standard & Poor’s”) continued to rate us BB+. As of July 30, 2011, there were no changes in these credit ratings. Any future reduction in the Moody’s and Standard & Poor’s ratings would increase the interest expense related to our $400 million term loan.

Note 5. Fair Value Measurements

Effective January 30, 2011, we adopted enhanced disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. There were no purchases, sales, issuances, or settlements related to recurring level 3 measurements during the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended July 30, 2011.

There were no transfers into or out of level 1 and level 2 during the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended July 30, 2011 and July 31, 2010.

Financial Assets and Liabilities

Financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis and cash equivalents and short-term investments held at amortized cost are as follows:

We have highly liquid investments classified as cash equivalents and short-term investments. 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. The July 31, 2010 fair value table has been updated to include cash equivalents and a portion of short-term investments in level 2.

8

Derivative financial instruments primarily include foreign exchange forward contracts. The principal currencies hedged against changes in the U.S. dollar are British pounds, Japanese yen, and Canadian dollars. 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 a deferred compensation plan that allows eligible employees to defer compensation up to a maximum amount. Plan investments are recorded at market value and are designated for the deferred compensation plan. The fair value of the Company’s deferred compensation plan 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 value of long-lived assets, including lease rights, key money, and intangible assets subject to amortization, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. Long-lived assets are considered impaired if the estimated undiscounted future cash flows of the asset or asset group are less than the carrying value. For impaired assets, we recognize a loss equal to the difference between the carrying value of the asset or asset group and its estimated fair value. The estimated fair value of the asset or asset group is based on estimated discounted future cash flows of the asset or asset group using a discount rate commensurate with the risk. The asset group is defined as the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are available.

We review the carrying value of goodwill and the trade name for impairment annually and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. The impairment review of goodwill involves comparing the fair value of a reporting unit to its carrying amount, including goodwill. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, a second step is required to measure the goodwill impairment loss. The second step includes hypothetically valuing all the tangible and intangible assets of the reporting unit as if the reporting unit had been acquired in a business combination. Then, the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill is compared to the carrying amount of that goodwill. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit’s goodwill exceeds the implied fair value of the goodwill, we recognize an impairment loss in an amount equal to the excess, not to exceed the carrying amount. A reporting unit is an operating segment or a business unit one level below that operating segment, for which discrete financial information is prepared and regularly reviewed by segment management. We have deemed our reporting unit of goodwill to be our Direct operating segment, which is the level at which segment management regularly reviews operating results and makes resource allocation decisions. The fair value of the reporting unit used to test goodwill for impairment is estimated using the income approach.

The trade name is considered impaired if the estimated fair value of the trade name is less than the carrying value. If the trade name is considered impaired, we recognize a loss equal to the difference between the carrying value and the estimated fair value of the trade name. The fair value of the trade name is determined using the relief from royalty method.

There were no material impairment charges recorded for goodwill, the trade name, or other long-lived assets for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended July 30, 2011 and July 31, 2010.

Note 6. Derivative Financial Instruments

We operate in foreign countries, which exposes us to market risk associated with foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. Our risk management policy is to hedge a significant portion of forecasted merchandise purchases for foreign operations, forecasted intercompany royalty payments, and intercompany obligations that bear foreign exchange risk using foreign exchange forward contracts. The principal currencies hedged against changes in the U.S. dollar are British pounds, Japanese yen, and Canadian dollars. 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.

9

Cash Flow Hedges

We designate the following foreign exchange forward contracts as cash flow hedges: (1) forward contracts used to hedge forecasted merchandise purchases denominated primarily in U.S. dollars made by our international subsidiaries whose functional currencies are their local currencies; and (2) forward contracts used to hedge forecasted intercompany royalty payments denominated in Japanese yen and Canadian dollars received by entities whose functional currencies are U.S. dollars. We make merchandise purchases on a monthly basis, and we enter into foreign exchange forward contracts to hedge forecasted merchandise purchases and related costs generally occurring in 12 to 18 months. We make intercompany royalty payments on a quarterly basis, and we enter into foreign exchange forward contracts to hedge intercompany royalty payments generally occurring in 9 to 15 months.

During the thirteen weeks ended April 30, 2011, we entered into and settled treasury rate lock agreements in anticipation of our 5.95 percent fixed-rate Notes of $1.25 billion in April 2011. Prior to the issuance of our Notes, we were subject to changes in interest rates, and we therefore locked into fixed-rate coupons to hedge against the interest rate fluctuations. The gain related to the treasury lock agreements is reported as a component of OCI and will be recognized in income over the life of the Notes.

There were no material amounts recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended July 30, 2011 or July 31, 2010 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 amounts recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended July 30, 2011 or July 31, 2010 as a result of hedge ineffectiveness, hedge components excluded from the assessment of effectiveness, or the discontinuance of net investment hedges.

Not Designated as Hedging Instruments

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

We generate intercompany activity each month, and as such, we generally enter into foreign exchange forward contracts on a monthly basis to hedge intercompany balances that bear foreign exchange risk. These foreign exchange forward contracts generally settle in less than 12 months.

Outstanding Notional Amounts

As of July 30, 2011, January 29, 2011, and July 31, 2010, we had foreign exchange forward contracts outstanding to sell various currencies related to our forecasted merchandise purchases and forecasted intercompany royalty payments and to buy the following notional amounts:

(notional amounts in millions)	July 30,     2011		January 29, 2011		July 31,     2010
U.S. dollars (1)	$	1,081	$	1,025	$	879
British pounds	£	43	£	54	£	37

As of July 30, 2011, January 29, 2011, and July 31, 2010, we had foreign exchange forward contracts outstanding to buy the following currencies related to our intercompany balances that bear foreign exchange risk:

U.S. dollars	$	7	$	12	$	7
British pounds	£	1	£	—	£	—

Substantially all of the unrealized gains and losses from designated cash flow hedges as of July 30, 2011 will be recognized in income within the next 12 months at the then current values, which may differ from the fair values as of July 30, 2011 shown above.

See Note 5 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for disclosures on the fair value measurements of our derivative financial instruments.

The effects of derivative financial instruments on OCI and the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income, on a pre-tax basis, are as follows:

For the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended July 30, 2011 and July 31, 2010, there were no amounts of gain or loss reclassified from accumulated OCI into 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.

See Note 9 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for components of comprehensive income, which includes changes in fair value of derivative financial instruments, net of tax, and reclassification adjustments for realized gains and losses on derivative financial instruments, net of tax.

Note 7. Share Repurchases

Share repurchase activity is as follows:

	13 Weeks Ended				26 Weeks Ended
($ and shares in millions except average per share cost)	July 30, 2011		July 31, 2010		July 30, 2011		July 31, 2010
Number of shares repurchased		42.5		37.9		67.3		52.2
Total cost	$	820	$	799	$	1,368	$	1,095
Average per share cost including commissions	$	19.31	$	21.11	$	20.33	$	20.98

In November 2009, the Board of Directors authorized $500 million for share repurchases, which was fully utilized by the end of March 2010. In connection with this authorization, we entered into purchase agreements with individual members of the Fisher family (related-party transactions). The Fisher family shares were purchased at the same weighted-average market price that we paid for share repurchases in the open market. During the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2010, approximately 0.5 million shares were repurchased for $10 million from the Fisher family subject to these agreements.

In February 2010, we announced that the Board of Directors authorized $1 billion for share repurchases, which was fully utilized by the end of August 2010. In August 2010, we announced that the Board of Directors authorized an additional $750 million for share repurchases, which was fully utilized by the end of March 2011. In February 2011, we announced a new $2 billion share repurchase authorization, of which $1.3 billion was utilized through July 30, 2011. We have not entered into purchase agreements with members of the Fisher family in connection with these authorizations.

All except $8 million of total share repurchases in the table above were paid for as of July 30, 2011. All of the share repurchases were paid for as of January 29, 2011 and July 31, 2010.

Note 8. Share-Based Compensation

Share-based compensation expense recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income, primarily in operating expenses, is as follows:

	13 Weeks Ended						26 Weeks Ended
($ in millions)	July 30, 2011			July 31, 2010			July 30, 2011			July 31, 2010

Share-based compensation expense, net of tax	$	10		$	10		$	21		$	27

Note 9. Comprehensive Income

Comprehensive income is comprised of net income and other gains and losses affecting equity that are excluded from net income. The components of OCI consist of foreign currency translation gains and losses, net of tax, changes in the fair value of derivative financial instruments, net of tax, and reclassification adjustments for realized gains and losses on derivative financial instruments, net of tax.

14

Comprehensive income, net of tax, consists of the following:

	13 Weeks Ended						26 Weeks Ended
($ in millions)	July 30, 2011			July 31, 2010			July 30, 2011			July 31, 2010

Comprehensive income, net of tax	$	203		$	255		$	451		$	548

Note 10. 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, Hong Kong, Japan, and the United Kingdom. We are no longer subject to U.S. federal income tax examinations for fiscal years before 2007, 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 2001.

As of July 30, 2011, we do not anticipate any significant increases or decreases in total gross unrecognized tax benefits within the next 12 months.

Except where required by U.S. tax law, no provision has been made for U.S. income taxes on the undistributed earnings of our foreign subsidiaries when we intend to utilize those earnings in foreign operations for an indefinite period of time.

During the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2010, we recognized an interest expense reversal of $11 million from the reduction of interest expense accruals resulting primarily from the filing of a U.S. federal income tax accounting method change application and the resolution of the review conducted by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) with respect to the Company’s federal income tax returns and refund claims for fiscal 2001 through 2004.

Note 11. Earnings Per Share

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

	13 Weeks Ended				26 Weeks Ended
(shares in millions)	July 30, 2011		July 31, 2010		July 30, 2011		July 31, 2010
Weighted-average number of shares - basic		542		646		562		657
Common stock equivalents		3		5		5		6
Weighted-average number of shares - diluted		545		651		567		663

The above computations of weighted-average number of shares – diluted exclude 13 million and 11 million shares related to stock options and other stock awards for the thirteen weeks ended July 30, 2011 and July 31, 2010, respectively, and 10 million and 7 million shares related to stock options and other stock awards for the twenty-six weeks ended July 30, 2011 and July 31, 2010, respectively, as their inclusion would have an antidilutive effect on earnings per share.

Note 12. Commitments and Contingencies

We have assigned certain store and corporate facility leases to third parties as of July 30, 2011. Under these arrangements, we are secondarily liable and have guaranteed the lease payments of the new lessees for the remaining portion of our original lease obligations at various dates through 2019. The maximum potential amount of future lease payments we could be required to make is approximately $18 million as of July 30, 2011. We recognize a liability for such guarantees when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the loss is probable and the amount of such loss can be reasonably estimated. There was no material liability recorded for the guarantees as of July 30, 2011, January 29, 2011, and July 31, 2010.

15

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

As party to a reinsurance pool for workers’ compensation, general liability, and automobile liability, we have guarantees with a maximum exposure of $14 million as of July 30, 2011. We are currently in the process of winding down our participation in the reinsurance pool.

As a multinational company, we are subject to various proceedings, lawsuits, disputes, and claims (“Actions”) arising in the ordinary course of our business. Many of these Actions raise complex factual and legal issues and are subject to uncertainties. As of July 30, 2011, actions filed against us included commercial, intellectual property, 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 July 30, 2011, January 29, 2011, and July 31, 2010, we recorded a liability for the estimated loss if the outcome of an Action is expected to result in a loss that is considered probable and reasonably estimable. The amount of liability as of July 30, 2011, January 29, 2011, and July 31, 2010 was not material for any individual Action or in total. Subsequent to July 30, 2011, no information has become available that indicates a material change to our estimate is required.

We cannot predict with assurance the outcome of Actions brought against us. Accordingly, adverse developments, settlements, or resolutions may occur and negatively 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 adverse effect on our results of operations, cash flows, or financial position taken as a whole.

Note 13. Segment Information

We identify our operating segments according to how our business activities are managed and evaluated. All of our operating segments sell a group of similar products – apparel, accessories, and personal care products. We have two reportable segments:

• Stores – The Stores reportable segment includes the results of the retail stores for Gap, Old Navy, and Banana Republic. We have aggregated the results of all Stores operating segments into one reportable segment because we believe the operating segments have similar economic characteristics.

• Direct – The Direct operating segment includes the results for our online brands, both domestic and international. Due to the different distribution method associated with the Direct operating segment, Direct is considered a reportable segment.

(1) U.S. includes the United States and Puerto Rico.

(2) In July 2010, we began selling products online to customers in select countries outside the U.S. using a U.S.-based third party that provides logistics and fulfillment services. In August 2010, we began selling products online to customers in select countries outside the U.S. utilizing our own logistics and fulfillment capabilities. For the thirteen

17

and twenty-six weeks ended July 30, 2011, there was $24 million and $50 million, respectively, of online sales that were shipped from distribution centers located outside the U.S. For the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2010, there were no material amounts related to online sales that were shipped from distribution centers located outside the U.S.

(3) Other includes our wholesale business, franchise business, Piperlime, and Athleta.

Gap and Banana Republic outlet retail sales are reflected within the respective results of each brand.

Financial Information for Reportable Segments

Operating income is the primary measure of profit we use to make decisions on allocating resources to our operating segments and to assess the operating performance of each operating segment. It is defined as income before interest expense, interest income, and income taxes. Corporate expenses are allocated to each operating segment and recorded in operating income on a rational and systematic basis.

Reportable segment assets presented below include those assets that are directly used in, or allocable to, that segment’s operations. Total assets for the Stores reportable segment primarily consist of merchandise inventory, the net book value of store assets, and prepaid expenses and receivables related to store operations. Total assets for the Direct reportable segment primarily consist of merchandise inventory, the net book value of information technology and distribution center assets, and the net book value of goodwill and intangible assets as a result of the acquisition of Athleta. We do not allocate corporate assets to our operating segments. Unallocated corporate assets primarily include cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, the net book value of corporate property and equipment, and tax-related assets.

Selected financial information by reportable segment and reconciliations to our consolidated totals are as follows:

	13 Weeks Ended				26 Weeks Ended

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

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,” “plan,” “project,” and similar expressions also identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding the following:

• stabilizing revenues in North America and growing revenues internationally;

• our plans to expand internationally, including additional Gap stores in Europe and China, additional Banana Republic stores in Europe, additional outlet stores in Canada, Europe, and Asia, online sales internationally, and additional franchising and similar arrangements;

• expected current and estimated future amortization expense for intangible assets;

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

• distributions and repatriations of earnings from foreign subsidiaries;

• significant increases or decreases in total gross unrecognized tax benefits within the next 12 months;

• the maximum potential amount of future lease payments;

• the impact of losses due to indemnification obligations;

• the maximum exposure for the reinsurance pool in future periods;

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

• growing revenues;

• maintaining a focus on cost management and return on invested capital;

• generating strong free cash flow and returning excess cash to shareholders;

• investing in long-term growth;

• the effective tax rate in fiscal 2011;

• 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;

• maintaining a reserve for unexpected business downturns;

• maintaining a sound financial policy, strong credit profile, and focus on liquidity;

• capital expenditures in fiscal 2011;

• the number of new store openings and store closings in fiscal 2011;

• net square footage change in fiscal 2011;

• the number of new franchise store openings in fiscal 2011;

• dividend payments in fiscal 2011; and

• the impact of changes in internal controls.

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 changes in general economic conditions or consumer spending patterns will have a negative impact on our financial performance or strategies;

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

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

• the risk that our efforts to expand internationally may not be successful and could impair the value of our brands;

19

• the risk that trade matters, sourcing costs, events causing disruptions in product shipments from China and other foreign countries, or an inability to secure sufficient manufacturing capacity may disrupt our supply chain or operations or impact our financial results;

• the risk that the impacts of the March 2011 earthquake, tsunami, and nuclear crisis in Japan, including damage to stores and infrastructure, and reduced consumer spending, will have adverse effects on our business, financial position, and strategies;

• the risk that our franchisees will be unable to successfully open, operate, and grow the Company’s franchised stores;

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

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

• the risk that we will be unsuccessful in implementing our strategic, operating, and people initiatives;

• 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 and our ability to service our debt while maintaining other initiatives;

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

• the risk that our IT services agreement with IBM could cause disruptions in our operations and have an adverse effect on our financial results;

• the risk that acts or omissions by our third-party vendors, including a failure to comply with our code of vendor conduct, could have a negative impact on our reputation or operations;

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

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

• the risk that changes in the regulatory or administrative landscape could adversely affect our financial condition, strategies, and results of operations; 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 29, 2011, our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended April 30, 2011, 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 September 7, 2011, 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 29, 2011.

OUR BUSINESS

We are a global specialty retailer offering apparel, accessories, and personal care products for men, women, children, and babies under the Gap, Old Navy, Banana Republic, Piperlime, and Athleta brands. We have Company-operated stores in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, France, Ireland, Japan, and beginning in November 2010, China and Italy. We also have franchise agreements with unaffiliated franchisees to operate Gap and Banana Republic stores in many other countries around the world. Under these agreements, third parties operate or will operate stores that sell apparel and related products under our brand names. In addition, our products are available to customers online in over 90 countries. 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.

We identify our operating segments based on the way we manage and evaluate our business activities. We have two reportable segments: Stores and Direct.

• Net sales for Direct and international (regions outside of the U.S. and Canada) as a percentage of total net sales for the second quarter of fiscal 2011 increased 4 percent to 24 percent compared with 20 percent for the second quarter of fiscal 2010.

• Gross profit for the second quarter of fiscal 2011 was $1.25 billion compared with $1.31 billion for the second quarter of fiscal 2010.

• Operating expenses for the second quarter of fiscal 2011 were flat compared with the second quarter of fiscal 2010 and decreased 0.5 percent as a percentage of net sales.

• Net income for the second quarter of fiscal 2011 decreased 19 percent to $189 million compared with $234 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2010, and diluted earnings per share decreased to $0.35 for the second quarter of fiscal 2011 compared with $0.36 for the second quarter of fiscal 2010.

Our full year business and financial priorities for fiscal 2011 are as follows:

• grow revenues by consistently delivering product that resonates with our target customers around the world;

• maintain a focus on cost management and return on invested capital;

• generate strong free cash flow and return cash to shareholders; and

• continue to invest in long-term growth.

As we focus on stabilizing revenues in our more mature North America market in fiscal 2011, we also plan to continue growing revenues internationally through the following:

• opening additional stores, many of which will be outlets, in Canada, Europe, and Asia;

• continuing to open franchise stores worldwide; and

• continuing to offer our online shopping experience to customers in international locations.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net Sales

Net sales primarily consist of retail sales, online sales, and wholesale and franchise revenues.

See Item 1, Financial Statements, Note 13 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for net sales by brand, region, and reportable segment.

21

Comparable Sales

Beginning in fiscal 2011, the Company reports comparable (“Comp”) sales including the associated comparable online sales. Accordingly, Comp sales for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2010 have been recalculated to conform to fiscal 2011 presentation.

The percentage change in Comp sales by brand and region and for total Company, including the associated comparable online sales, as compared with the preceding year, is as follows:

	13 Weeks Ended						26 Weeks Ended
	July 30, 2011			July 31, 2010			July 30, 2011			July 31, 2010
Gap North America		(3	)%		(3	)%		(3	)%		—	%
Old Navy North America		—	%		2	%		(1	)%		4	%
Banana Republic North America		(2	)%		4	%		(1	)%		5	%
International		(4	)%		3	%		(5	)%		2	%
The Gap, Inc.		(2	)%		1	%		(2	)%		3	%

The percentage change in Comp store sales by brand and region and for total Company, excluding the associated comparable online sales, as compared with the preceding year, is as follows:

	13 Weeks Ended						26 Weeks Ended
	July 30, 2011			July 31, 2010			July 30, 2011			July 31, 2010
Gap North America		(5	)%		(4	)%		(5	)%		(1	)%
Old Navy North America		(2	)%		2	%		(3	)%		4	%
Banana Republic North America		(3	)%		3	%		(3	)%		4	%
International		(6	)%		3	%		(7	)%		2	%
The Gap, Inc.		(4	)%		1	%		(4	)%		3	%

Only Company-operated stores are included in the calculations of Comp sales. Gap and Banana Republic outlet Comp sales are reflected within the respective results of each brand.

A store is included in the Comp sales calculations when it has been open for at least 12 months 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 for less than 12 months 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 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 regions 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 stores are reflected in each of the respective brands. We have franchise agreements with unaffiliated franchisees to operate Gap and Banana Republic stores in Asia, Australia, Europe, Latin America, the Middle East, and Africa.

We expect to open about 125 new Company-operated store locations and close about 125 Company-operated store locations in fiscal 2011. Through downsizes, we expect net square footage for Company-operated stores to decrease about 2 percent for fiscal 2011. We also expect our franchisees will open about 75 new franchise stores in fiscal 2011.

Net Sales

Our net sales for the second quarter of fiscal 2011 increased $69 million, or 2 percent, compared with the prior year comparable period due to an increase in net sales of $18 million related to our Stores reportable segment and an increase in net sales of $51 million related to our Direct reportable segment.

23

• For the Stores reportable segment, our net sales for the second quarter of fiscal 2011 increased $18 million, or 1 percent, compared with the prior year comparable period. The increase was primarily due to an increase in our international and franchise sales and the favorable impact of foreign exchange of $61 million, partially offset by a decrease in sales in North America for the second quarter of fiscal 2011 compared with the prior year comparable period. The foreign exchange impact is the translation impact if net sales for the second quarter of fiscal 2010 were translated at exchange rates applicable during the second quarter of fiscal 2011.

• For the Direct reportable segment, our net sales for the second quarter of fiscal 2011 increased $51 million, or 20 percent, compared with the prior year comparable period. The increase was due to the growth in our online business across all brands and the incremental sales related to the introduction of international online sales in August 2010.

Our net sales for the first half of fiscal 2011 increased $35 million, or 1 percent, compared with the prior year comparable period due to an increase in net sales of $104 million related to our Direct reportable segment, offset by a decrease in net sales of $69 million related to our Stores reportable segment.

• For the Stores reportable segment, our net sales for the first half of fiscal 2011 decreased $69 million, or 1 percent, compared with the prior year comparable period. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in Comp store sales, excluding the associated comparable online sales, of 4 percent for the first half of fiscal 2011 compared with the prior year comparable period, partially offset by the favorable impact of foreign exchange of $103 million and an increase in franchise sales. The foreign exchange impact is the translation impact if net sales for the first half of fiscal 2010 were translated at exchange rates applicable during the first half of fiscal 2011.

• For the Direct reportable segment, our net sales for the first half of fiscal 2011 increased $104 million, or 19 percent, compared with the prior year comparable period. The increase was due to the growth in our online business across all brands and the incremental sales related to the introduction of international online sales in August 2010.

Cost of Goods Sold and Occupancy Expenses

($ in millions)	13 Weeks Ended						26 Weeks Ended
	July 30, 2011			July 31, 2010			July 30, 2011			July 31, 2010
Cost of goods sold and occupancy expenses	$	2,135		$	2,003		$	4,126		$	3,931

Gross margin		36.9	%		39.6	%		38.2	%		40.9	%

Cost of goods sold and occupancy expenses as a percentage of net sales increased 2.7 percent in the second quarter and first half of fiscal 2011 compared with the prior year comparable periods.

• Cost of goods sold increased 2.7 percent as a percentage of net sales in the second quarter and first half of fiscal 2011 compared with the prior year comparable periods. The increase in cost of goods sold as a percentage of net sales was primarily driven by increased cost of merchandise.

• Occupancy expenses were flat as a percentage of net sales in the second quarter and first half of fiscal 2011 compared with the prior year comparable periods.

Operating Expenses

($ in millions)	13 Weeks Ended						26 Weeks Ended
	July 30, 2011			July 31, 2010			July 30, 2011			July 31, 2010
Operating expenses	$	917		$	917		$	1,835		$	1,844

Operating margin		9.9	%		12.0	%		10.8	%		13.1	%

Operating expenses were flat, but decreased 0.5 percent as a percentage of net sales, in the second quarter of fiscal 2011 compared with the prior year comparable period.

24

Operating expenses decreased $9 million, or 0.2 percent as a percentage of net sales, in the first half of fiscal 2011 compared with the prior year comparable period. The decrease in operating expenses was mainly due to higher income from fees earned under the private label and co-branded credit card agreements, partially offset by an increase in marketing expenses.

Interest Expense (Reversal)

($ in millions)	13 Weeks Ended				26 Weeks Ended
	July 30, 2011		July 31, 2010		July 30, 2011		July 31, 2010
Interest expense (reversal)	$	22	$	1	$	28	$	(9	)

Interest expense for the second quarter and first half of fiscal 2011 primarily consists of interest expense related to our $1.25 billion long-term debt, which was issued in April 2011, and $400 million term loan, which was funded in May 2011.

Interest expense for the first half of fiscal 2010 includes an interest expense reversal of $11 million from the reduction of interest expense accruals resulting primarily from the filing of a U.S. federal income tax accounting method change application and the resolution of the IRS’s review of the Company’s federal income tax returns and refund claims for fiscal 2001 through 2004.

Interest Income

($ in millions)	13 Weeks Ended						26 Weeks Ended
	July 30, 2011			July 31, 2010			July 30, 2011			July 31, 2010
Interest income	$	(1	)	$	(2	)	$	(2	)	$	(3	)

Interest income is earned on our cash and cash equivalents and investments. The decrease in interest income for the first half of fiscal 2011 compared with the prior year comparable period was primarily due to a lower monthly average cash balance in the first half of fiscal 2011.

Income Taxes

($ in millions)	13 Weeks Ended						26 Weeks Ended
	July 30, 2011			July 31, 2010			July 30, 2011			July 31, 2010
Income taxes	$	124		$	164		$	272		$	347
Effective tax rate		39.6	%		41.2	%		39.2	%		39.3	%

The decrease in the effective tax rate for the second quarter of fiscal 2011 compared with the prior year comparable period was primarily due to tax adjustments in fiscal 2010 related to distributions received from foreign subsidiaries that did not recur in fiscal 2011.

We currently expect the fiscal 2011 effective tax rate to be about 39 percent. The actual rate will ultimately depend on several variables, including the mix of income between domestic and international operations, the overall level of income, the potential resolution of outstanding tax contingencies, and changes in tax laws and rates.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Our largest source of operating cash flows is cash collections from the sale of our merchandise. Our primary uses of cash include merchandise inventory purchases, occupancy costs, personnel-related expenses, purchases of property and equipment, payment of taxes, and share repurchases. In addition to share repurchases, we also continue to return cash to our shareholders in the form of dividends.

In the first quarter of fiscal 2011, we made the strategic decision to issue debt. Given favorable market conditions and our history of generating consistent and strong operating cash flow, we felt it was the right time to pursue a more optimal capital structure. The Company has generated annual cash flow from operations in excess of $1 billion per year for the past decade and ended fiscal 2010 with $1.7 billion of cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments on its balance sheet. We remain committed to maintaining a sound financial policy, strong credit profile, and a focus on liquidity. Proceeds from the debt issuance are used for general corporate purposes including share repurchases.

25

In April 2011, we issued $1.25 billion aggregate principal amount of 5.95 percent Notes due April 2021 and received proceeds of $1.24 billion in cash, net of underwriting and other fees.

In April 2011, we also entered into a $400 million five-year term loan due April 2016, which was funded in May 2011. The term loan has an interest rate equal to LIBOR plus a margin based on our long-term senior unsecured credit ratings.

As of July 30, 2011, cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments were $2.2 billion. 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 half of fiscal 2011 increased $19 million compared with the prior year comparable period, primarily due to the following:

• a decrease in income tax payments in the first half of fiscal 2011 compared with the first half of fiscal 2010; and

• a lower fiscal 2010 bonus payout in the first quarter of fiscal 2011 compared with the fiscal 2009 bonus payout in the first quarter of fiscal 2010; partially offset by

• a decrease in net income in the first half of fiscal 2011 compared with the first half of fiscal 2010.

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 over a total of about eight weeks 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

Our cash outflows from investing activities are primarily for capital expenditures and purchases of investments, while cash inflows are primarily proceeds from maturities of investments. Net cash used for investing activities during the first half of fiscal 2011 decreased $139 million compared with the prior year comparable period, primarily due to the following:

• $25 million of net maturities of short-term investments in the first half of fiscal 2011 compared with $125 million of net purchases of short-term investments in the first half of fiscal 2010; partially offset by

• $13 million more purchases of property and equipment in the first half of fiscal 2011 compared with the first half of fiscal 2010.

For fiscal 2011, we expect capital expenditures to be about $575 million.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

Our cash outflows from financing activities consist primarily of the repurchases of our common stock and dividend payments. Cash inflows primarily consist of proceeds from the issuance of long-term debt. In the first half of fiscal 2011, we generated $200 million of cash from financing activities compared with a cash outflow of $1.2 billion in the first half of fiscal 2010. The change was primarily due to the following:

• $1.65 billion of proceeds from our issuance of long-term debt in the first half of fiscal 2011; partially offset by

• $262 million more repurchases of common stock in the first half of fiscal 2011 compared with the first half of fiscal 2010.

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.

26

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

	26 Weeks Ended
($ in millions)	July 30, 2011			July 31, 2010
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	559		$	540
Less: Purchases of property and equipment		(261	)		(248	)
Free cash flow	$	298		$	292

Debt

In April 2011, we issued $1.25 billion aggregate principal amount of 5.95 percent Notes due April 2021 and received proceeds of $1.24 billion in cash, net of underwriting and other fees. The net proceeds are available for general corporate purposes, including repurchases of our common stock. Interest is payable semi-annually on April 12 and October 12 of each year, commencing on October 12, 2011. We have an option to call the Notes in whole or in part at any time at our expense. The Notes agreement is unsecured and does not contain any financial covenants.

In April 2011, we also entered into a $400 million, five-year, unsecured term loan due April 2016, which was funded in May 2011. Repayments of $40 million are payable annually on April 7 of each year, commencing on April 7, 2012, with a final repayment of $240 million due on April 7, 2016. In addition, interest is payable at least quarterly based on an interest rate equal to LIBOR plus a margin based on our long-term senior unsecured credit ratings. The term loan agreement contains financial and other covenants including, but not limited to, limitations on liens and subsidiary debt as well as the maintenance of two financial ratios – a fixed charge coverage ratio and a leverage ratio. Violation of these covenants could result in a default under the term loan agreement, which would require the immediate repayment of outstanding amounts.

Credit Facilities

Trade letters of credit represent a payment undertaking guaranteed by a bank on our behalf to pay a vendor a given amount of money upon presentation of specific documents demonstrating that merchandise has shipped. Vendor payables are recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at the time of merchandise title transfer, although the letters of credit are generally issued prior to this. As of July 30, 2011, we had a $100 million, two-year, unsecured committed letter of credit agreement with an expiration date of September 2012. As of July 30, 2011, we had no trade letters of credit issued under this letter of credit agreement.

In April 2011, we replaced our existing $500 million, five-year, unsecured revolving credit facility, which was scheduled to expire in August 2012, with a new $500 million, five-year, unsecured revolving credit facility (the “Facility”), which is scheduled to expire in April 2016. The Facility is available for general corporate purposes including working capital, trade letters of credit, and standby letters of credit. The facility usage fees and fees related to the Facility fluctuate based on our long-term senior unsecured credit ratings and our leverage ratio. If we were to draw on the Facility, interest would be a base rate (typically LIBOR) plus a margin based on our long-term senior unsecured credit ratings and our leverage ratio on the unpaid principal amount. To maintain availability of funds under the Facility, we pay a facility fee on the full facility amount, regardless of usage. As of July 30, 2011, there were no borrowings under the Facility. The net availability of the Facility, reflecting $43 million of outstanding standby letters of credit, was $457 million as of July 30, 2011.

On April 7, 2011, we obtained new long-term senior unsecured credit ratings from Moody’s and Fitch. Moody’s assigned a rating of Baa3, and Fitch assigned a rating of BBB-. Standard & Poor’s continues to rate us BB+. As of July 30, 2011, there were no changes in these credit ratings. Any future reduction in the Moody’s and Standard & Poor’s ratings would increase our interest expense related to our $400 million term loan and any future interest expense if we were to draw on the Facility.

In September 2010, we entered into two separate agreements to make unsecured revolving credit facilities available for our operations in China (the “China Facilities”). The China Facilities are available for borrowings, overdraft borrowings, and issuances of bank guarantees. The 196 million Chinese yuan (approximately $30 million as of July 30, 2011) China Facilities were set to expire in August 2011 but were renewed under substantially similar terms through September 2012. As of July 30, 2011, there were borrowings of $3 million (18 million Chinese yuan) at an interest rate of 6.72 percent under the China Facilities. The net availability of the China Facilities, reflecting these borrowings, was approximately $27 million as of July 30, 2011.

Dividend Policy

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

27

We paid a dividend of $0.225 per share and $0.20 per share during the first half of fiscal 2011 and 2010, respectively. We intend to increase our annual dividend, which was $0.40 per share for fiscal 2010, to $0.45 per share for fiscal 2011.

Share Repurchases

In August 2010, we announced that the Board of Directors authorized $750 million for share repurchases, which was fully utilized by the end of March 2011. In February 2011, we announced that the Board of Directors authorized an additional $2 billion for share repurchases, of which $1.3 billion was utilized through July 30, 2011.

During the first half of fiscal 2011, we repurchased approximately 67.3 million shares for $1.4 billion, including commissions, at an average price per share of $20.33.

Summary Disclosures about Contractual Cash Obligations and Commercial Commitments

There have been no significant changes to our contractual obligations and commercial commitments as disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K as of January 29, 2011, other than those which occur in the normal course of business and the $1.25 billion Notes and $400 million term loan discussed above. See Item 1, Financial Statements, Note 12 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for disclosures on commitments and contingencies.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

There have been no significant changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates as discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 29, 2011.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

In April 2011, we issued $1.25 billion aggregate principal amount of 5.95 percent Notes due April 2021 and received proceeds of $1.24 billion in cash, net of underwriting and other fees. The net proceeds are available for general corporate purposes, including repurchases of our common stock. Interest is payable semi-annually on April 12 and October 12 of each year, commencing on October 12, 2011. The amount recorded in long-term debt in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets for the Notes is equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Notes, net of the unamortized discount. The Notes are not subject to market risk, as they have a fixed interest rate.

In April 2011, we also entered into a $400 million, five-year, unsecured term loan due April 2016, which was funded in May 2011. Repayments of $40 million are payable annually on April 7 of each year, commencing on April 7, 2012, with a final repayment of $240 million due on April 7, 2016. In addition, interest is payable at least quarterly based on an interest rate equal to LIBOR plus a margin based on our long-term senior unsecured credit ratings.

Our interest rate risk associated with the term loan as of July 30, 2011 is as follows:

	Expected Maturity Date (Fiscal Year)
($ in millions)	2011			2012			2013			2014			2015			2016			Thereafter			Total			Fair Value (1)
Principal payments	$	—		$	40		$	40		$	40		$	40		$	240		$	—		$	400		$	400
Average interest rate (2)		2	%		2	%		2	%		2	%		2	%		2	%		2	%		2	%

(1) The carrying value of the term loan approximates its fair value, as the interest rate varies depending on market rates and our credit rating.

(2) The average interest rate for all periods presented was calculated based on LIBOR plus a margin, including fees, based on our long-term senior unsecured credit ratings as of July 30, 2011. As the interest rate for the term loan is variable, it is subject to change for all periods presented.

Other than the issuance of the Notes and the term loan described above, our market risk profile as of July 30, 2011 has not significantly changed since January 29, 2011. Our market risk profile as of January 29, 2011 is disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K. See Item 1, Financial Statements, Notes 5 and 6 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for disclosures on our investments and derivative financial instruments.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

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

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There was no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the Company’s second quarter of fiscal 2011 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

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. Actions filed against us from time to time include commercial, intellectual property, customer, employment, data privacy, and securities-related 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, adverse developments, settlements, or resolutions may occur and negatively 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 adverse effect on our financial results.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

There have been no material changes in our risk factors from those disclosed in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 29, 2011 and in Part II, Item 1A of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended April 30, 2011.

In November 2009, the Board of Directors authorized $500 million for share repurchases, which was fully utilized by the end of March 2010. In connection with this authorization, we entered into purchase agreements with individual members of the Fisher family (related-party transactions). The Fisher family shares were purchased at the same weighted-average market price that we paid for share repurchases in the open market. During the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2010, approximately 0.5 million shares were repurchased for $10 million from the Fisher family subject to these agreements.

In February 2010, we announced that the Board of Directors authorized $1 billion for share repurchases, which was fully utilized by the end of August 2010. In August 2010, we announced that the Board of Directors authorized an additional $750 million for share repurchases, which was fully utilized by the end of March 2011. In February 2011, we announced a new $2 billion share repurchase authorization, of which $1.3 billion was utilized through July 30, 2011. We have not entered into purchase agreements with members of the Fisher family in connection with these authorizations.

All except $8 million of total share repurchases in the table above were paid for as of July 30, 2011. All of the share repurchases were paid for as of January 29, 2011 and July 31, 2010.

Commitments And Contingencies

Note 12. Commitments and Contingencies

We have assigned certain store and corporate facility leases to third parties as of July 30, 2011. Under these arrangements, we are secondarily liable and have guaranteed the lease payments of the new lessees for the remaining portion of our original lease obligations at various dates through 2019. The maximum potential amount of future lease payments we could be required to make is approximately $18 million as of July 30, 2011. We recognize a liability for such guarantees when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the loss is probable and the amount of such loss can be reasonably estimated. There was no material liability recorded for the guarantees as of July 30, 2011, January 29, 2011, and July 31, 2010.

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

As party to a reinsurance pool for workers' compensation, general liability, and automobile liability, we have guarantees with a maximum exposure of $14 million as of July 30, 2011. We are currently in the process of winding down our participation in the reinsurance pool.

As a multinational company, we are subject to various proceedings, lawsuits, disputes, and claims ("Actions") arising in the ordinary course of our business. Many of these Actions raise complex factual and legal issues and are subject to uncertainties. As of July 30, 2011, actions filed against us included commercial, intellectual property, 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 July 30, 2011, January 29, 2011, and July 31, 2010, we recorded a liability for the estimated loss if the outcome of an Action is expected to result in a loss that is considered probable and reasonably estimable. The amount of liability as of July 30, 2011, January 29, 2011, and July 31, 2010 was not material for any individual Action or in total. Subsequent to July 30, 2011, no information has become available that indicates a material change to our estimate is required.

We cannot predict with assurance the outcome of Actions brought against us. Accordingly, adverse developments, settlements, or resolutions may occur and negatively 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 adverse effect on our results of operations, cash flows, or financial position taken as a whole.

Note 10. 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, Hong Kong, Japan, and the United Kingdom. We are no longer subject to U.S. federal income tax examinations for fiscal years before 2007, 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 2001.

As of July 30, 2011, we do not anticipate any significant increases or decreases in total gross unrecognized tax benefits within the next 12 months.

Except where required by U.S. tax law, no provision has been made for U.S. income taxes on the undistributed earnings of our foreign subsidiaries when we intend to utilize those earnings in foreign operations for an indefinite period of time.

During the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2010, we recognized an interest expense reversal of $11 million from the reduction of interest expense accruals resulting primarily from the filing of a U.S. federal income tax accounting method change application and the resolution of the review conducted by the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") with respect to the Company's federal income tax returns and refund claims for fiscal 2001 through 2004.

(the "Company," "we," and "our"), without audit. 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 July 30, 2011 and July 31, 2010 and for all periods presented. The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of January 29, 2011 has been derived from our audited financial statements.

We identify our operating segments based on the way we manage and evaluate our business activities. We have two reportable segments: Stores and Direct.

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 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 29, 2011.

Debt

Note 4. Debt

In April 2011, we issued $1.25 billion aggregate principal amount of 5.95 percent notes (the "Notes") due April 2021 and received proceeds of $1.24 billion in cash, net of underwriting and other fees of $11 million. The net proceeds are available for general corporate purposes, including repurchases of our common stock. Interest is payable semi-annually on April 12 and October 12 of each year, commencing on October 12, 2011. We have an option to call the Notes in whole or in part at any time at our expense. The Notes agreement is unsecured and does not contain any financial covenants. The amount recorded in long-term debt in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets for the Notes was $1.25 billion as of July 30, 2011 and is equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Notes, net of the unamortized discount. The estimated fair value of the Notes was $1.23 billion as of July 30, 2011 and was based on the quoted market price of the Notes as of the last business day of the thirteen-week period ended July 30, 2011.

In April 2011, we also entered into a $400 million, five-year, unsecured term loan due April 2016, which was funded in May 2011. Repayments of $40 million are payable annually on April 7 of each year, commencing on April 7, 2012, with a final repayment of $240 million due on April 7, 2016. In addition, interest is payable at least quarterly based on an interest rate equal to the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") plus a margin based on our long-term senior unsecured credit ratings. The term loan agreement contains financial and other covenants including, but not limited to, limitations on liens and subsidiary debt as well as the maintenance of two financial ratios – a fixed charge coverage ratio and a leverage ratio. Violation of these covenants could result in a default under the term loan agreement, which would require the immediate repayment of outstanding amounts. The estimated fair value of the term loan was $400 million as of July 30, 2011. The carrying value of the term loan approximates its fair value, as the interest rate varies depending on quoted market rates and our credit rating.

Long-term debt as of July 30, 2011 consists of the following:

($ in millions)
Notes	$	1,246
Term loan		400
Total long-term debt		1,646
Less: Current portion		(40	)
Total long-term debt, less current portion	$	1,606

In conjunction with our financings, we obtained new long-term senior unsecured credit ratings from Moody's Investors Service ("Moody's") and Fitch Ratings ("Fitch"). Moody's assigned a rating of Baa3, and Fitch assigned a rating of BBB-. Standard & Poor's Rating Service ("Standard & Poor's") continued to rate us BB+. As of July 30, 2011, there were no changes in these credit ratings. Any future reduction in the Moody's and Standard & Poor's ratings would increase the interest expense related to our $400 million term loan.

Fair Value Measurements

Note 5. Fair Value Measurements

Effective January 30, 2011, we adopted enhanced disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. There were no purchases, sales, issuances, or settlements related to recurring level 3 measurements during the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended July 30, 2011.

There were no transfers into or out of level 1 and level 2 during the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended July 30, 2011 and July 31, 2010.

Financial Assets and Liabilities

Financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis and cash equivalents and short-term investments held at amortized cost are as follows:

We have highly liquid investments classified as cash equivalents and short-term investments. 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. The July 31, 2010 fair value table has been updated to include cash equivalents and a portion of short-term investments in level 2.

Derivative financial instruments primarily include foreign exchange forward contracts. The principal currencies hedged against changes in the U.S. dollar are British pounds, Japanese yen, and Canadian dollars. 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 a deferred compensation plan that allows eligible employees to defer compensation up to a maximum amount. Plan investments are recorded at market value and are designated for the deferred compensation plan. The fair value of the Company's deferred compensation plan 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 value of long-lived assets, including lease rights, key money, and intangible assets subject to amortization, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. Long-lived assets are considered impaired if the estimated undiscounted future cash flows of the asset or asset group are less than the carrying value. For impaired assets, we recognize a loss equal to the difference between the carrying value of the asset or asset group and its estimated fair value. The estimated fair value of the asset or asset group is based on estimated discounted future cash flows of the asset or asset group using a discount rate commensurate with the risk. The asset group is defined as the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are available.

We review the carrying value of goodwill and the trade name for impairment annually and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. The impairment review of goodwill involves comparing the fair value of a reporting unit to its carrying amount, including goodwill. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, a second step is required to measure the goodwill impairment loss. The second step includes hypothetically valuing all the tangible and intangible assets of the reporting unit as if the reporting unit had been acquired in a business combination. Then, the implied fair value of the reporting unit's goodwill is compared to the carrying amount of that goodwill. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit's goodwill exceeds the implied fair value of the goodwill, we recognize an impairment loss in an amount equal to the excess, not to exceed the carrying amount. A reporting unit is an operating segment or a business unit one level below that operating segment, for which discrete financial information is prepared and regularly reviewed by segment management. We have deemed our reporting unit of goodwill to be our Direct operating segment, which is the level at which segment management regularly reviews operating results and makes resource allocation decisions. The fair value of the reporting unit used to test goodwill for impairment is estimated using the income approach.

The trade name is considered impaired if the estimated fair value of the trade name is less than the carrying value. If the trade name is considered impaired, we recognize a loss equal to the difference between the carrying value and the estimated fair value of the trade name. The fair value of the trade name is determined using the relief from royalty method.

There were no material impairment charges recorded for goodwill, the trade name, or other long-lived assets for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended July 30, 2011 and July 31, 2010.

Segment Information

Note 13. Segment Information

We identify our operating segments according to how our business activities are managed and evaluated. All of our operating segments sell a group of similar products – apparel, accessories, and personal care products. We have two reportable segments:

• Stores – The Stores reportable segment includes the results of the retail stores for Gap, Old Navy, and Banana Republic. We have aggregated the results of all Stores operating segments into one reportable segment because we believe the operating segments have similar economic characteristics.

• Direct – The Direct operating segment includes the results for our online brands, both domestic and international. Due to the different distribution method associated with the Direct operating segment, Direct is considered a reportable segment.

Net sales by brand, region, and reportable segment are as follows:

Gap and Banana Republic outlet retail sales are reflected within the respective results of each brand.

Financial Information for Reportable Segments

Operating income is the primary measure of profit we use to make decisions on allocating resources to our operating segments and to assess the operating performance of each operating segment. It is defined as income before interest expense, interest income, and income taxes. Corporate expenses are allocated to each operating segment and recorded in operating income on a rational and systematic basis.

Reportable segment assets presented below include those assets that are directly used in, or allocable to, that segment's operations. Total assets for the Stores reportable segment primarily consist of merchandise inventory, the net book value of store assets, and prepaid expenses and receivables related to store operations. Total assets for the Direct reportable segment primarily consist of merchandise inventory, the net book value of information technology and distribution center assets, and the net book value of goodwill and intangible assets as a result of the acquisition of Athleta. We do not allocate corporate assets to our operating segments. Unallocated corporate assets primarily include cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, the net book value of corporate property and equipment, and tax-related assets.

Selected financial information by reportable segment and reconciliations to our consolidated totals are as follows:

Derivative Financial Instruments

Derivative Financial Instruments

Note 6. Derivative Financial Instruments

We operate in foreign countries, which exposes us to market risk associated with foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. Our risk management policy is to hedge a significant portion of forecasted merchandise purchases for foreign operations, forecasted intercompany royalty payments, and intercompany obligations that bear foreign exchange risk using foreign exchange forward contracts. The principal currencies hedged against changes in the U.S. dollar are British pounds, Japanese yen, and Canadian dollars. 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 denominated primarily in U.S. dollars made by our international subsidiaries whose functional currencies are their local currencies; and (2) forward contracts used to hedge forecasted intercompany royalty payments denominated in Japanese yen and Canadian dollars received by entities whose functional currencies are U.S. dollars. We make merchandise purchases on a monthly basis, and we enter into foreign exchange forward contracts to hedge forecasted merchandise purchases and related costs generally occurring in 12 to 18 months. We make intercompany royalty payments on a quarterly basis, and we enter into foreign exchange forward contracts to hedge intercompany royalty payments generally occurring in 9 to 15 months.

During the thirteen weeks ended April 30, 2011, we entered into and settled treasury rate lock agreements in anticipation of our 5.95 percent fixed-rate Notes of $1.25 billion in April 2011. Prior to the issuance of our Notes, we were subject to changes in interest rates, and we therefore locked into fixed-rate coupons to hedge against the interest rate fluctuations. The gain related to the treasury lock agreements is reported as a component of OCI and will be recognized in income over the life of the Notes.

There were no material amounts recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended July 30, 2011 or July 31, 2010 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 amounts recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended July 30, 2011 or July 31, 2010 as a result of hedge ineffectiveness, hedge components excluded from the assessment of effectiveness, or the discontinuance of net investment hedges.

Not Designated as Hedging Instruments

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

We generate intercompany activity each month, and as such, we generally enter into foreign exchange forward contracts on a monthly basis to hedge intercompany balances that bear foreign exchange risk. These foreign exchange forward contracts generally settle in less than 12 months.

Outstanding Notional Amounts

As of July 30, 2011, January 29, 2011, and July 31, 2010, we had foreign exchange forward contracts outstanding to sell various currencies related to our forecasted merchandise purchases and forecasted intercompany royalty payments and to buy the following notional amounts:

In June 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued an accounting standards update to revise the manner in which entities present comprehensive income in their financial statements. This guidance requires entities to present each component of net income along with total net income, each component of other comprehensive income ("OCI") along with a total for OCI, and a total amount for comprehensive income, either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. This accounting standards update is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011. We will adopt the provisions of this accounting standards update in the first quarter of fiscal 2012.

Earnings Per Share

Note 11. Earnings Per Share

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

	13 Weeks Ended				26 Weeks Ended
(shares in millions)	July 30, 2011		July 31, 2010		July 30, 2011		July 31, 2010
Weighted-average number of shares - basic		542		646		562		657
Common stock equivalents		3		5		5		6
Weighted-average number of shares - diluted		545		651		567		663

The above computations of weighted-average number of shares – diluted exclude 13 million and 11 million shares related to stock options and other stock awards for the thirteen weeks ended July 30, 2011 and July 31, 2010, respectively, and 10 million and 7 million shares related to stock options and other stock awards for the twenty-six weeks ended July 30, 2011 and July 31, 2010, respectively, as their inclusion would have an antidilutive effect on earnings per share.
