Analysts have expressed optimism about Gap's future, with UBS forecasting a 23% increase in earnings per share for the 2027 fiscal year, and both Morgan Stanley and Wells Fargo raising their price targets to $23, citing the strength of the Old Navy brand and positive second-quarter results. Despite facing challenges, Old Navy's margin performance remains robust, according to Wells Fargo.

UBS recently increased its price target for Gap to $42, while BMO Capital has initiated coverage with a Market Perform rating, focusing on Old Navy’s ongoing transformation under new management. These mixed yet generally positive analyst sentiments reflect the ongoing financial trajectory of Gap Inc.
