Gap Profits Soar

Gap’s recently released fourth-quarter numbers show a 61% rise in profits, to $351 million from $218 million a year ago, prompting a 1.3% rise in share prices after market close on Thursday. Compared to last year, Gap stores showed a 4% comparable gain, Old Navy rose 8% and Banana Republic was up 3%. As far as StyleForum is concerned, it’s difficult to see evidence – or justification – for these results, other than the fact that Gap is slowly adapting to the direction of menswear three years ago.
