Our note on each quarter GAP files

Where GAP stands after its latest 10-Q

Revenue for the twelve months to August 2026 was $15.3bn, up 1.1% on a year earlier, slower than 1.6% a quarter earlier. That puts it 794 of 931 for growth among all the companies we cover. Free-cash-flow margin rose to 6.2% from 5.1% a year earlier. Operating margin widened to 11.0% from 7.7%. Against its peers on growth, profitability, cash generation and balance sheet, it grades C. It passes 6 of our 6 financial-health checks. Our cash-flow model value is $40.11 a share, against a share price of $23.45. At that price, our model says the market is pricing in cash flow shrinking about 7.7% a year for five years, slower than the -1.7% a year revenue growth it has delivered.

The Fundamentalytics view

Next results ~November 19, 2026 (estimated)

GAP Inc's trailing-twelve-month revenue grew 1.1% year on year, with a free-cash-flow margin of 6.2%. Where it lags: stock pay as % of revenue of 1.1% ranks 22 of 26 apparel retail companies we cover.

Our discounted-cash-flow model values the business at ~$47 per share in the base case (~$36–$61 across growth scenarios) — model values under stated assumptions, not a price target.

Current signal Free cash flow diverging from earnings: TTM free cash flow grew 24.4% while net income grew 40.3%: a 16pp divergence.

Assembled from SEC-filed figures — the full workings are on this page and in our methodology. Observations, not recommendations.

Strengths

  • Priced below our value. The share price of $22.22 is 109% below our value per share of $47.
  • Margins widening. Operating margin is up 3.3 points on a year ago.
  • Shrinking share count. Diluted shares fell 1.0% in a year, so each share owns more of the business.

Things to watch

  • Volatile shares. Over the past year the shares showed annualised volatility of 46% and a beta of 1.1 against the S&P 500.
  • Insiders selling. 11 insiders sold $84M of stock over the past 365 days and none bought (21% under pre-set trading plans).
  • Weak cash conversion. Free cash flow was 77% of net income over the last 12 months.
  • Below peers: stock pay as % of revenue. Stock pay as % of revenue of 1.1% ranks 22 of 26 apparel retail companies we cover (median 0.7%).
  • Heavily shorted. 12.7% of the shares available to trade are sold short (4.0 days of average volume to cover).
  • Missing expectations. Earnings per share fell short of the consensus estimate in 2 of the last four quarters.

What the price is pricing in

The share price implies cash flow shrinking about 11.9% a year for five years.That is slower than the -1.7% a year revenue growth GAP has delivered.

  • Priced in-11.9%
  • Last 12 months1.1%
  • 3 years a year0.5%
  • 5 years a year-1.7%

Our cash-flow model with every input fixed except growth over the next five years, solved for the growth at which the model value equals the share price ($21.99, Nov 3, 2026). Cash-flow growth then fades to 2.5% a year; discount rate 8.5%. Delivered figures are revenue growth from SEC filings.

How we got here: a discounted-cash-flow model of GAP Inc's free cash flow after stock-based pay with after-tax interest added back ($912M, FY2027 Q2 TTM), growing 2.7% and 2.3% in the next two years (forecasts, guidance and its record), then back to 2% by year five, and fading to 2.5%, discounted at 8.5%. Lower and higher growth cases span ~$36–~$61 ; that spread sets a 25% margin before we rate Buy or Sell.

Produced by Fundamentalytics' automated valuation model on November 3, 2026, using delayed market prices. Rating meanings, methodology and conflicts: recommendations disclosure and research disclaimer. General research, not personal advice — it does not consider your circumstances. Prices can fall as well as rise.

Our value per share comes from a discounted-cash-flow model of GAP Inc's free cash flow after stock-based pay ( $912M, FY2027 Q2 TTM, with after-tax interest added back): growth for five years as below (the first two years from forecasts, guidance and the company's record), fading to 2.5%, discounted at 8.5%, then cash added and debt and other claims subtracted. These are model values under stated assumptions, not price targets or recommendations.

Valuation models

We value GAP Inc as an operating company, with every model that fits that kind of business. Cost of equity 10.3%: the 10-year Treasury yield (4.9%) plus a beta of 1.2 times a 4.5% equity risk premium.

Moat

46 /100

Moderate moat

How hard GAP's competitive advantage looks for rivals to wear away, judged from 10 years of its own filings: returns on capital, pricing power, profit durability, cash conversion and discipline.

  • Returns on capital 9 / 20

    Net income has been a median 6.7% of total assets over 10 years.

  • Pricing power 13 / 20

    Gross margin has been a median 38.0%, moving by 2.9 percentage points (standard deviation) across 10 years.

  • Durability 1 / 20

    Operating margin has been a median 7.0%; its worst year was -8.5%.

  • Cash conversion 11 / 20

    Free cash flow was positive in 9 of 10 years, at a median 4.7% of revenue.

  • Discipline 17 / 20

    The diluted share count fell 0.4% over five years; stock-based pay has been a median 0.6% of revenue.

AI disruption exposure: Medium. In this industry, AI could change how the product is made or sold, without replacing the core asset. The score above includes a 5-point deduction for that exposure (51 before it).

How our valuation uses these forecasts

Our cash-flow model grows GAP Inc's revenue by +2.7% next year and +2.3% the year after, then fades back toward its own record by year five. Next year's rate weighs analysts' consensus (+2.9%, weight 56%) , management guidance (+3.0%, weight 19%) and the company's own record (+2.0%, weight 25%) . How the weights are set.

Options strategies

All options ideas

How GAP Inc’s listed options are priced, and three ways to use them that follow from our valuation. Quotes are delayed, read November 2, 2026. Check the live chain at your broker before trading.

Implied vs realised volatility

Includes results

A results date falls inside these options’ life. Implied volatility is meant to be higher for that, so we do not call it rich.

  • Implied is 1.26× the last 60 days’ realised volatility .
  • Calls are priced 2 points richer than puts (25-delta): demand for upside is high, which favours selling calls over puts.
  • Why: an earnings date falls inside the option's life, so implied volatility is expected to be high.

Our rule for “rich”: implied at least 1.2× 60-day realised (beyond measurement noise), above 1-year realised (not just a calm spell), and in the top 20% of our coverage that day. Never with results inside the option’s life. These are our conventions, built on research showing option prices usually imply more movement than follows, most when the gap is wide. How we judge this.

Cash-secured put

Not offered: fundamentals grade C+ (needs B+ or better).

We suggest selling a put only on well-rated companies, at a strike where the price you would pay if assigned (strike less premium) is at or below our fair value.

Covered call

Not offered: no liquid call at or above our price target — the model says the upside is worth more than any listed strike.

For holders: sell a call at a strike at or above our fair value, so the shares are only sold at a price the model calls full value.

Collar

Not offered: the shares trade below our fair value: a collar caps upside the model expects.

For holders of a stock trading at or above our fair value: buy a put for a floor and sell a call to pay for it.

General research, not personal advice. Options can lose you more than you expect and are not suitable for everyone: put sellers can be made to buy shares that keep falling, call sellers give up gains above the strike, and results or news can move prices sharply. Chances shown are approximations from each option’s delta. Spreads, fees and early assignment are not modelled.

Growth, profitability, cash generation and balance sheet are percentiles against the companies we cover in the same industry, from SEC filings (100 = best).
