Additional Fiscal Year 2012 Results and 2013 Outlook

Earnings per Share

The company expects diluted earnings per share to be in the range of $2.52 to $2.60 for fiscal year 2013, or an 8 to 12 percent increase from the prior year.

The guidance contemplates some of the impact from the weakening Japanese Yen. The average rate in fiscal year 2012 for the Japanese Yen was about 80. Current spot rate of the Japanese Yen has weakened by about 15 percent, which means the company’s Japanese Yen-based net sales and earnings translate to fewer U.S. dollars.

Further, the company noted that the 53^rd week in fiscal year 2012 creates a timing shift in the calendar for fiscal year 2013. For example, the first quarter of fiscal year 2013 begins on February 3, 2013 and ends on May 4, 2013. In fiscal year 2012, the first quarter began a week earlier on January 29, 2012, and ended on April 28, 2012. Therefore, the first quarter of fiscal year 2013 excludes January 29 through February 2 and now includes April 29 through May 4, a week that was part of the second quarter last year.

Depreciation and Amortization

Fiscal year 2012 depreciation and amortization expense, net of amortization of lease incentives, was $483 million.

For fiscal year 2013, the company expects depreciation and amortization expense, net of amortization of lease incentives, to be about $475 million.

Operating Expenses

Fourth quarter operating expenses were $1.2 billion, up $141 million compared with last year. Full year operating expenses were $4.2 billion, up $393 million from the prior year.

Marketing expenses for the full year were $653 million, up $105 million compared with last year.

Operating Margin

The company’s operating margin in fiscal year 2012 was 12.4 percent.

The company expects that operating margin for fiscal year 2013 will be about 13 percent.

Effective Tax Rate

The effective tax rate was 39.9 percent for the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2012. The effective tax rate for fiscal year 2012 was 39.0 percent.

For fiscal year 2013, the company expects the effective tax rate to be about 39 percent.

Inventory

On a year-over-year basis, inventory dollars per store were up 5 percent at the end of the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2012, which is in line with comparable sales.

For fiscal year 2013, the company expects inventory dollars per store at the end of the first quarter to be up in the mid-single digits on a year-over-year basis over last year’s negative 7 percent.

Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Short-Term Investments

The company ended the year with $1.5 billion in cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments. For fiscal year 2012, free cash flow, defined as net cash provided by operating activities less purchases of property and equipment, was $1.3 billion compared with $815 million in fiscal year 2011. Please see the reconciliation of free cash flow, a non-GAAP financial measure, from the GAAP financial measure in the tables at the end of this press release.

Share Repurchases

During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2012, the company repurchased about 18 million shares for $563 million. For fiscal year 2012, the company repurchased about 34 million shares for a total of $1 billion.

As announced in January, the company completed its previous $1 billion authorization and announced a new $1 billion share repurchase authorization, underscoring its continued commitment to returning excess cash to shareholders.

Dividends

The company paid a dividend of $0.125 per share during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2012, which was an increase of 11 percent compared with the fourth quarter last year.

In a separate press release today, the company announced that its Board of Directors approved a plan to increase the company’s annual dividend per share by 20 percent to $0.60 per share for fiscal year 2013. This is the fourth consecutive year Gap Inc. has increased its dividend.

Capital Expenditures

Fiscal year 2012 capital expenditures were $659 million.

For fiscal year 2013, the company expects capital spending to be approximately $675 million in support of its outlined strategies.

Real Estate

The company ended fiscal year 2012 with 3,407 store locations in 47 countries, 3,095 of which are company-operated. Square footage of company-operated stores decreased 1 percent from the end of fiscal year 2011.

In fiscal year 2013, the company expects to open about 160 company-operated stores, focused on Athleta, Gap China, Old Navy Japan, and global outlet stores. The company expects that it will close about 80 company-operated stores. The closures are weighted towards Gap North America, consistent with the company’s previously stated strategy. Given its focus on growing through new channels and geographies, the company expects square footage to increase about 1 percent in fiscal year 2013.

_________
(a) 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.
