SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 24, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Gap Inc. (NYSE:GPS), a portfolio of billion-dollar lifestyle brands including Old Navy, Gap, Banana Republic, and Athleta, and the largest specialty apparel company in the U.S., today reported financial results for its second quarter ended July 29, 2023.

"I have long admired Gap Inc. as a customer, a brand builder, and most recently, as a Board member. An even greater draw is the company's storied brands. And I'm excited for the opportunity to lead the incredible people of Gap Inc. to unlock our full potential," said Richard Dickson, President and Chief Executive Officer, Gap Inc. "We're seeing encouraging signs of progress, as our teams streamline the way we work so we can focus on growth-driving initiatives – a virtuous cycle that we'll look to become our norm. This means we have to do things differently, with a clear focus on redefining our brands' meaning to consumers, focusing on creativity, designing for relevance as a pursuit rather than a goal, and leveraging our remarkable legacy to shape an exciting new future."

"We are pleased to deliver meaningful operating margin expansion and strong free cash flow during the second quarter driven by modest market share gains, our significantly improved inventory position, and our actions to transform the company's operating model and structure," said Katrina O'Connell, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, Gap Inc. "While we are encouraged by our near-term progress, we remain mindful of the mixed economic and consumer environment in which we are operating and continue to plan the business prudently."

Second Quarter Fiscal 2023 - Financial Results

Net sales of $3.55 billion, down 8% compared to last year, inclusive of an estimated 1-point foreign exchange headwind and 2 percentage points of negative impact from the sale of Gap China.

Comparable sales were down 6%.
Store sales decreased 7% compared to last year. The company ended the quarter with 3,456 store locations in over 40 countries, of which 2,592 were company operated.
Online sales decreased 11% compared to last year and represented 33% of total net sales.

Gross margin of 37.6% increased 310 basis points versus last year's reported gross margin and increased 160 basis points versus last year's adjusted gross margin which excluded $58 million in inventory impairment charges.

Merchandise margin increased 410 basis points versus last year on a reported basis. Compared to last year's adjusted rate, merchandise margin increased 260 basis points due to lower air freight expense and improved promotional activity in the quarter, partially offset by inflationary cost headwinds.
Rent, occupancy, and depreciation (ROD) deleveraged 100 basis points versus last year primarily due to lower comparable sales in the quarter.

Reported operating income was $106 million; reported operating margin of 3.0%.
Adjusted operating income, excluding $13 million in restructuring costs, was $119 million; adjusted operating margin of 3.4%.
The effective tax rate was negative 8.3%. During the quarter, the company recorded a tax benefit as a result of a transfer pricing settlement related to its sourcing activities.
Reported net income of $117 million; reported diluted earnings per share of $0.32.
Adjusted net income of $127 million, excluding restructuring costs; adjusted diluted earnings per share of $0.34.

Second Quarter Fiscal 2023 – Balance Sheet and Cash Flow Highlights

Ended the quarter with cash and cash equivalents of $1.4 billion, an increase of 91% from the prior year.
Year-to-date net cash from operating activities was $528 million. Free cash flow, defined as net cash from operating activities less purchases of property and equipment, was $329 million.
Ending inventory of $2.23 billion was down 29% compared to last year.
Year-to-date capital expenditures were $199 million.
Paid second quarter dividend of $0.15 per share, totaling $56 million. The company's Board of Directors approved third quarter fiscal 2023 dividend of $0.15 per share.

Additional information regarding adjusted gross margin, adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin, adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per share, and free cash flow, all of which are non-GAAP financial measures, is provided at the end of this press release along with a reconciliation of these measures from the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures for the applicable period.

Second Quarter Fiscal 2023 – Global Brand Results

Old Navy:

Net sales of $1.96 billion, down 6% compared to last year. Strength in women's tops and woven bottoms and improved trends in men's and kids were offset by softness in the active category as well as continued slower demand from the lower-income consumer.
Comparable sales were down 6%.

Gap:

Net sales of $755 million, down 14% compared to last year. Excluding the negative impact from the sale of Gap China, the shutdown of Yeezy Gap and foreign exchange headwinds, net sales were down 4% versus last year. Sales were driven by continued strength in the women's category offset by strategic store closures in North America.
Comparable sales were down 1%.

Banana Republic:

Net sales of $480 million, down 11% compared to last year. While Banana Republic maintained market share in the quarter, sales growth remains impacted in the short-term as the brand laps the outsized growth last year driven by the shift in consumer preferences.
Comparable sales were down 8%.

Athleta:

Net sales of $341 million, down 1% compared to last year. While sales continue to be impacted by product acceptance challenges, the brand has taken near-term actions to improve product presentation and creative to better align with Athleta's performance DNA.
Comparable sales were down 7%.

Fiscal 2023 Outlook

"As we look toward the long-term, we believe our focus on unlocking the value of our important and iconic brands coupled with the transformative actions we are taking to improve our operating structure will position Gap Inc. back on its path towards delivering sustainable, profitable growth and value for our shareholders," said Katrina O'Connell, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, Gap Inc.

The company's outlook takes into consideration the continued uncertain consumer and macro environment.

The company is estimating that third quarter net sales could decrease in the low double-digit range compared to last year's net sales of $4.04 billion. As a reminder, the sale of Gap China to Baozun Inc. closed on January 31, 2023. Third quarter 2022 net sales included approximately $70 million in sales for Gap China.

The company anticipates that fiscal 2023 net sales could decrease in the mid-single digit range compared to last year's net sales of $15.6 billion. As a reminder, fiscal 2022 net sales included approximately $300 million in sales for Gap China. Fiscal 2023 will include a 53rd week estimated to positively impact net sales by $150 million.

The company continues to expect gross margin expansion for fiscal 2023. At the estimated level of sales described above, the company is planning adjusted operating expenses of approximately $1.3 billion in the third quarter and approximately $5.15 billion for fiscal 2023.

The company continues to expect fiscal 2023 capital expenditures in the range of $500 million to $525 million.

Webcast and Conference Call Information

Emily Gacka, Director of Investor Relations at Gap Inc., will host a conference call to review the company's second quarter fiscal 2023 results beginning at approximately 2:00 p.m. Pacific Time today. Ms. Gacka will be joined by Executive Chair Bob Martin, Chief Executive Officer Richard Dickson and Chief Financial Officer Katrina O'Connell.

A live webcast of the conference call 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 each non-GAAP measure included in this press release and related conference call is provided in the tables to this press release.

The non-GAAP measures included in this press release and related conference call are adjusted gross margin, adjusted operating expenses/adjusted SG&A, adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin, adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per share, and free cash flow, as well as expected adjusted operating expenses/adjusted SG&A. These non-GAAP measures exclude the impact of certain items that are set forth in the tables to this press release. A reconciliation of expected adjusted operating expenses/adjusted SG&A is not provided, in reliance on the exception provided under Item 10(e)(1)(i)(B) of Regulation S-K, because a comparable GAAP measure is not reasonably accessible or reliable due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying measures that would be necessary for such reconciliation. Namely, we are not able to reliably predict the impact of many of the costs and expenses that may be incurred in the future that could impact operating expenses/SG&A. In addition, we believe such a reconciliation would imply a degree of precision and certainty that could be confusing to investors. The variability of those costs and expenses may be material and have a significant and unpredictable impact on our future GAAP results.

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 these 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.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

FREE CASH FLOW

Free cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure. We believe free cash flow is an important metric because it represents a measure of how much cash a company has available for discretionary and non-discretionary items after the deduction of capital expenditures. We require regular capital expenditures including technology improvements 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.
