Company Announces Expected Lease-Related Accounting Adjustments

 

SAN FRANCISCO — Feb. 24, 2005 — Gap Inc. (NYSE:GPS) today announced that preliminary earnings for the 2004 fourth quarter increased 4 percent to $370 million, or $0.40 per share on a diluted basis. Full year 2004 earnings increased 11 percent to $1.1 billion, or $1.20 per share, compared to $1.09 per share for full year 2003. The company also announced that fourth quarter and full year earnings and earnings per share are subject to adjustments based on the outcome of a pending review by the company of its lease-related accounting.

 

“In 2004, we delivered solid earnings performance, while mining growth opportunities within our brands, significantly strengthening our balance sheet, retiring debt and completing a $1 billion share repurchase program,” said Gap Inc. President and CEO Paul Pressler. “Having stabilized our operations and well positioned our brands in the marketplace, we have a strong foundation for 2005. Going forward we will focus on driving growth opportunities across our brand portfolio, strengthening operating performance and enhancing shareholder value through cash distributions.”
