NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
---------------------

The condensed consolidated balance sheets as of May 5, 2001 and April 29, 2000
and the interim condensed consolidated statements of earnings for the thirteen
weeks ended May 5, 2001 and April 29, 2000 and cash flows for the thirteen week
periods ended May 5, 2001 and April 29, 2000 have been prepared by the Company,
without audit. In the opinion of management, such statements include all
adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) considered
necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and
cash flows of the Company at May 5, 2001 and April 29, 2000, and for all periods
presented.

Certain information and disclosures normally included in the notes to the annual
financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America have been omitted from these interim
financial statements. It is suggested that these condensed consolidated
financial statements be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial
statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form
10-K for the year ended February 3, 2001.

The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of February 3, 2001 was derived from
the Company's February 3, 2001 balance sheet included in the Company's 2000
Annual Report on Form 10-K.

The results of operations for the thirteen weeks ended May 5, 2001 are not
necessarily indicative of the operating results that may be expected for the
year ending February 2, 2002.


2. COMPREHENSIVE EARNINGS
----------------------

Comprehensive earnings include net earnings and other comprehensive earnings
(losses). Other comprehensive earnings (losses) include foreign currency
translation adjustments and fluctuations in the fair market value of certain
financial instruments. Comprehensive earnings for the thirteen weeks ended May
5, 2001 and April 29, 2000 were as follows (in thousands):

=============== ==================

3.   EARNINGS PER SHARE
------------------

Basic earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number of shares
of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share
includes the dilutive effect of the Company's potentially dilutive securities,
which include certain stock options and unvested shares of restricted stock. The
following summarizes the incremental shares from these potentially dilutive
securities, calculated using the treasury stock method.


<TABLE>

----------------- ----------------

Weighted-average number of shares - diluted 875,873,227 888,020,166
================= ================
</TABLE>

Excluded from the above computations of weighted-average shares for diluted
earnings per share were options to purchase 27,066,303 and 2,475,924 shares of
common stock during the thirteen weeks ended May 5, 2001 and April 29, 2000,
respectively. Additionally, put options to repurchase 750,000 shares during the
thirteen weeks ended April 29, 2000 were excluded from the above computations.
Issuance or repurchase of these securities would have resulted in an
antidilutive effect on earnings per share.

4. LONG-TERM DEBT
--------------

On April 27, 2001, the Company issued $500 million of debt securities at a fixed
annual interest rate of 5.625 percent, due May 1, 2003. Interest on the notes is
payable semi-annually. The notes are recorded in the balance sheet at their
issuance amount.

In connection with the debt issuance, the Company entered into interest rate
swaps in order to reduce interest rate risk. The swap agreements were settled in
the first quarter and the net losses of approximately $2.2 million associated
with these swaps will be amortized over the life of the debt securities.

INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS' REPORT

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of
The Gap, Inc.:

We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets of The
Gap, Inc. and subsidiaries as of May 5, 2001 and April 29, 2000, and the related
condensed consolidated statements of earnings and cash flows for the thirteen
week periods ended May 5, 2001 and April 29, 2000. These financial statements
are the responsibility of the Company's management.

We conducted our reviews in accordance with standards established by the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of interim
financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to
financial data and of making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and
accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in
accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of
America, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the
financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an
opinion.

Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should
be made to such condensed consolidated financial statements for them to be in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America.

We have previously audited, in accordance with auditing standards generally
accepted in the United States of America, the consolidated balance sheet of The
Gap, Inc. and subsidiaries as of February 3, 2001, and the related consolidated
statements of earnings, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for the year then
ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated February 28, 2001, we
expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In
our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying condensed
consolidated balance sheet as of February 3, 2001 is fairly stated, in all
material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it
has been derived.

political or financial instability in countries where the Company's goods are
manufactured, and/or other factors that may be described in the Company's Annual
Report on Form 10-K and/or other filings with the Securities and Exchange
Commission. Future economic and industry trends that could potentially impact

======================================================== ================= ================ ================ ================
Increase 22% 30% 22% 31%
</TABLE>

The increase in net sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2001 over the same
period last year was attributable to the increase in retail selling space, both
through the opening of new stores (net of stores closed) and the expansion of
existing stores.

The company's first quarter comparable store sales by division were as follows:
Gap Domestic had a negative mid-single digit versus a negative mid-single digit
last year, Gap International had a negative high-single digit versus a positive
mid-single digit last year, Banana Republic had a negative high-single digit
versus a positive mid-single digit last year, Old Navy had a negative
high-single digit versus a negative low-single digit last year.

The decrease in net sales per average square foot for the first quarter of
fiscal 2001 was primarily attributable to negative comparable store sales.


Cost of Goods Sold and Occupancy Expenses

Cost of goods sold and occupancy expenses as a percentage of net sales increased
6.0 percentage points in the first quarter from the same period in fiscal 2000.

For the first quarter, the decrease in merchandise margin as a percentage of net
sales was primarily attributable to lower margins from regular-priced goods and
a greater percentage of merchandise sold at markdown when compared to the same
period last year. The increase in occupancy expenses as a percentage of net
sales for the first quarter was primarily attributable to negative comparable
store sales.


Operating Expenses

Operating expenses as a percentage of net sales increased 1.4 percentage points
for the first quarter of fiscal 2001, from the same period in fiscal 2000. The
increase was primarily attributable to negative comparable store sales, higher
medical costs and software maintenance costs as a percentage of net sales offset
by lower advertising costs as a percentage of net sales.


Interest Expense

The increase in interest expense in the first quarter of fiscal 2001 as compared
to the same period in fiscal 2000 was primarily due to an increase in average
borrowings.


Interest Income

The decrease in interest income in the first quarter of fiscal 2001 as compared
to the same period in fiscal 2000 was primarily due to a decrease in average
cash available for investment.

9
Income Taxes

The effective tax rate was 36.5 percent for the first quarter of fiscal 2001 and
2000.

10
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The following sets forth certain measures of the Company's liquidity:

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Thirteen Weeks Ended
--------------------
May 5, 2001 April 29, 2000
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cash provided by operating activities ($000) $ 66,047 $ 40,332
Working capital ($000) $403,059 $374,893
Current ratio 1.15:1 1.18:1
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

For the thirteen weeks ended May 5, 2001, the increase in cash flows provided by
operating activities, compared to the same period in the prior year, was
primarily attributable to a decrease in the growth of merchandise inventory and
changes in other operating assets and liabilities which were primarily driven by
timing of certain payments. This increase was partially offset by decreases in
net earnings exclusive of depreciation and amortization and decreases in tax
benefit from the exercise of stock options and vesting of restricted stock.

The Company funds inventory expenditures during normal and peak periods through
a combination of cash flows provided by operations as well as short-term and
long-term financing arrangements. The Company's business follows a seasonal
pattern, peaking over a total of about 13 weeks during the Back-to-School and
Holiday periods.

The Company has committed credit facilities totaling $1.35 billion, consisting
of an $1.20 billion, 364-day revolving credit facility, and a $150 million, 5-
year revolving credit facility through June 27, 2005. These credit facilities
provide for the issuance of up to $600 million in letters of credit and provide
backup for the Company's $750 million commercial paper program. The Company has
additional uncommitted credit facilities of $845 million for the issuance of
letters of credit. At May 5, 2001, the Company had outstanding letters of credit
and commercial paper of approximately $927 million and $42 million,
respectively. The Company also had additional unused lines of credit of
approximately $235 million at May 5, 2001.

On April 27, 2001, the Company issued $500 million of debt securities at a fixed
annual interest rate of 5.625 percent, due May 1, 2003. Interest on the notes is
payable semi-annually. The notes are recorded in the balance sheet at their
issuance amount.

In connection with the debt issuance, the Company entered into interest rate
swaps in order to reduce interest rate risk. The swap agreements were settled in
the first quarter and the net losses of approximately $2.2 million associated
with these swaps will be amortized over the life of the debt securities.

For the thirteen weeks ended May 5, 2001, capital expenditures, net of
construction allowances, totaled approximately $293 million. The majority of
these expenditures were used for expansion of the store base, headquarters and
distribution facilities. During the first quarter of fiscal 2001, the Company
experienced a net increase in store space of approximately 1.9 million square
feet, or 6 percent, due to a net addition of 174 stores, the expansion of 55
stores and the remodeling of certain stores.

For fiscal 2001, the Company expects capital expenditures to be in the range of
$1.3 to $1.4 billion, net of construction allowances. This represents the
addition of 550 to 630 new stores, the expansion of approximately 150 stores,
the remodeling of certain stores, as well as amounts for headquarter facility,
distribution centers and equipment and information technology. The Company
expects to fund such capital expenditures with cash flows from operations and
other sources of financing. Square footage growth is expected to be in the 17 to
20 percent range for fiscal 2001. In light of the lower level of new store
openings during the first quarter, the Company expects capital expenditures, new
store openings and square footage growth to fall at the lower end of these
ranges. New stores are generally expected to be leased.

11
During fiscal 1998, the Company purchased land in San Francisco to construct an
additional headquarter facility. The estimated total project cost is
approximately $240 million and approximately $55 million will be incurred during
fiscal 2001. The Company commenced construction on this facility during the
third quarter of fiscal 1998 and it was partially opened during the first
quarter of fiscal 2001. Construction is estimated to be completed by the third
quarter of fiscal 2001.

The Company commenced construction on several distribution facilities in the
second quarter and third quarter of fiscal 2000. The estimated total cost for
these facilities is approximately $455 million. Approximately one-half of the
expenditures will be incurred during fiscal 2001. The facilities are expected to
be open by the fourth quarter of fiscal 2001.

12
Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
- -------------------------------------------------------------------

The market risk of the Company's financial instruments as of May 5, 2001 has not
