NYSE valuation stays below the yearly high

GAP traded at USD 23.45 on the NYSE at 3:49 p.m. ET on October 20, 2026. The primary-exchange 52-week range was USD 18.11 to USD 29.36, placing the quote USD 5.91 below the yearly high and USD 5.34 above the yearly low.

The price-to-earnings ratio was 7.01 times, while market capitalization stood at USD 8.20 billion on October 20, 2026. The valuation figure is a market measure rather than a forecast, so the next report remains the clearest scheduled test of the recent margin improvement.

Two dates remain on the calendar

Earnings Today lists November 19, 2026 as GAP's next scheduled earnings date. MarketBeat lists October 28, 2026 as the payment date for the declared USD 0.175 dividend.

GAP remains a branded apparel retailer

GAP operates the Old Navy, Gap, Banana Republic and Athleta brands across company-operated stores, franchise locations and digital channels. For investors, the next useful comparison is whether the operating-income improvement continues when the company reports its quarter ending October 31, 2026.
