Item 2.02.

Results of Operation and Financial Condition

                    On March 1, 2012, Foot Locker, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing its operating results for the fourth quarter and full year 2011. The press release includes a non-GAAP financial measure of fourth quarter and full-year 2011 net income before the write-down of certain intangible assets. The release also includes for 2010 a non-GAAP financial measure of fourth quarter and full-year 2010 net income before the write-down of assets, net of the partial recovery of a short-term investment that was written down in 2008. The Company believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors because they allow for a more direct comparison of the Company’s performance for the fourth quarter and full year 2011 to the Company’s performance in the comparable prior-year periods. The non-GAAP financial measures are provided in addition to, and not as an alternative to, the Company’s reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation to GAAP is provided in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. A copy of the press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1, which, in its entirety, is incorporated herein by reference.

                    The Company is hosting a conference call on March 2, 2012, to discuss its fourth quarter 2011 and full-year 2011 financial results, provide comments on the current business environment, and its outlook for 2012. A non-GAAP to GAAP reconciliation schedule for the non-GAAP measures referred to in the Company’s prepared conference call remarks is attached as Exhibit 99.2. The Company believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors in evaluating the Company’s performance relative to its long-term financial objectives and allows for a more direct comparison of the Company’s performance for 2011 as compared with 2010.
