Gap Inc. said it saw a strong customer response at its Old Navy chain last month, but its namesake brand posted lower comparable sales.
Over all, Gap's total same-store sales fell 3% in September. Analysts polled by Thomson Reuters had projected a 2.9% decline in total comparable sales.
Total sales fell 2% to $1.43 billion.
Gap said a late-August fire at its Fishkill, N.Y., distribution center had a negative effect of about 3 percentage points in September. The fire is expected to hurt total comparable sales by a similar amount in October.
Comparable sales rose 4% at Old Navy, while declining 10% at Gap Global and 9% at Banana Republic Global.
Gap shares rose 6% to $24.15 in after-hours trading.
The company said September margins "actualized significantly higher than previously forecasted," which more than offset the negative effects from lost sales and logistics costs related to the fire.
