Insights

Gap Inc. reports stable Q2 results with flat sales but improved EPS, showing continued progress in its multi-year turnaround strategy.

Gap Inc. delivered a resilient second quarter performance with flat net sales of $3.7 billion year-over-year, while achieving 1% comparable sales growth—marking the sixth consecutive quarter of positive comps. The company's disciplined execution translated to $0.57 diluted earnings per share, a 6% improvement from last year.

Looking at brand performance, the portfolio shows mixed results but with encouraging signs at the largest brands. Old Navy (2% comp growth) and Gap (4% comp growth) continued their positive momentum, with Gap brand notably achieving its seventh consecutive quarter of comp growth. Banana Republic showed promising signs with 4% comp growth despite slightly lower total sales. The main concern remains Athleta, which continues to struggle with a 9% comp decline and 11% drop in net sales.

Digital performance was solid with online sales increasing 3%, now representing 34% of total sales. However, gross margin contracted 140 basis points to 41.2%, primarily due to lapping benefits from a credit card revenue sharing agreement in the previous year.

The company's financial position appears strong with $2.4 billion in cash and short-term investments, up 13% year-over-year. Inventory levels, however, increased 9% to $2.3 billion due to accelerated receipts and higher costs from tariffs. Management has reaffirmed its full-year outlook for 1-2% net sales growth despite tariff headwinds expected to impact margins by 100-110 basis points.

The continuation of shareholder returns—including $62 million in dividends and $82 million in share repurchases—signals management's confidence in the company's trajectory and financial health. The sustained positive performance at three of its four major brands demonstrates that CEO Richard Dickson's two-year transformation strategy is gaining traction, though Athleta remains a work in progress requiring longer-term remediation.

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 28, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Gap Inc. (NYSE: GAP), the largest specialty apparel company in the U.S. with a purpose-driven house of iconic brands including Old Navy, Gap, Banana Republic, and Athleta, today reported financial results for its second quarter ended August 2, 2025.

Webcast and Conference Call Information

Ms. Notaro will be joined by President and Chief Executive Officer, Richard Dickson and Chief Financial Officer, Katrina O'Connell.

A live webcast of the conference call and accompanying materials will be available online at investors.gapinc.com. A replay of the webcast will be available at the same location. 

Non-GAAP Disclosure
This press release and related conference call include financial measures that have not been calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and are therefore referred to as non-GAAP financial measures. 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. Additional information regarding the intended use of non-GAAP measures included in this press release and related conference call is provided in the tables to this press release.

The non-GAAP measure included in this press release and related conference call is free cash flow. This non-GAAP measure excludes the impact of certain items. A reconciliation of free cash flow from the most directly comparable GAAP measure is set forth in the tables to this press release.

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. The company urges investors to review the reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures included in the tables to this press release below, and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate its business. The non-GAAP financial measures used by the company have limitations in their usefulness to investors because they have no standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP and are not prepared under any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles.

the risk that we or our franchisees may be unsuccessful in gauging apparel trends and changing consumer preferences or responding with sufficient lead time; the risk that we fail to maintain, enhance and protect our brand image and reputation; the risk that we do not successfully implement our marketing efforts, or that our talent partnerships expose us to reputational or other risks; the risk that we fail to manage key executive succession and retention and to continue to attract qualified personnel; the risk that we may be unable to manage our inventory and fulfillment operations effectively and the resulting impact on our sales and results of operations; the risk that our investments in customer, digital, omni-channel, and other strategic initiatives may not deliver the results we anticipate;

the risk that our technology systems that support our e-commerce platform may not be effective or function properly; reductions in income and cash flow from our credit card programs; the risk of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations; the risk that our comparable sales and margins may experience fluctuations or that we may fail to meet financial market expectations; evolving regulations and expectations with respect to environmental, social, and governance matters, and increased scrutiny of diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives; the risk that our level of indebtedness may impact our ability to operate and expand our business; the risk that we and our subsidiaries may be unable to meet our obligations under our indebtedness agreements; the risk that covenants in our indebtedness agreements may restrict or limit our business; the risk that changes in our credit profile or deterioration in market conditions may limit our access to the capital markets; the adverse impacts of climate change on our business; natural disasters, public health crises, political crises, negative global climate patterns, or other catastrophic events; our failure to comply with applicable laws and regulations and changes in the regulatory or administrative landscape; the risk that we will not be successful in defending various proceedings, lawsuits, disputes, and claims; the risk that the assumptions and estimates used when preparing our financial information, including estimates and assumptions regarding inventory valuation, income taxes and valuation allowances, sales return and bad debt allowances, deferred revenue, and the impairment of long-lived assets, are inaccurate or may change, and the resulting impact on our results of operations; the risk that changes in the geographic mix and level of income or losses, the expected or actual outcome of audits, changes in deferred tax valuation allowances, and new legislation could impact our effective tax rate, or that we may be required to pay amounts in excess of established tax liabilities; the risk that the adoption of new accounting pronouncements will impact future results; and the risk that additional information may arise during our close process or as a result of subsequent events that would require us to make adjustments to our financial information.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
UNAUDITED

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 investments as well as building and maintaining our stores and distribution centers. 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.
