Total revenue increased by $30.8 million, or 5.4%, to $599.0 million for fiscal 2012, from $568.2 million for fiscal 2011. Freight revenue increased by $8.1 million, or 1.7%, to $475.1 million for fiscal 2012, from $467.0 million for fiscal 2011. This increase was primarily attributable to an increase in freight rates, due to the slowly recovering economy and reduced capacity. Average freight revenue per loaded mile, excluding fuel surcharge, increased to $1.367 in fiscal 2012 from $1.325 for fiscal 2011, or 3.2%. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in loaded miles to 244.2 million in fiscal 2012, compared to 248.5 million in fiscal 2011. We expect our freight rates to maintain an upward trend through the end of the calendar year as industry capacity continues to tighten.
Fuel expenses, net of fuel surcharge revenue of $123.8 million and $101.2 million for fiscal 2012 and fiscal 2011, respectively, decreased to $32.4 million, or 6.8% of freight revenue, for fiscal 2012, compared to $37.3 million, or 8.0% of freight revenue, for fiscal 2011. These decreases were attributable to higher freight and fuel surcharge revenue as noted above. Gallons purchased for the year were consistent with the prior year, while average fuel prices increased 13.7% to $3.90 per gallon for fiscal 2012, from $3.43 per gallon for fiscal 2011. We expect that our continued efforts to reduce idling operate more fuel-efficient tractors will continue to have a positive impact on our miles per gallon; however, we expect this positive impact to be partially offset by increasing fuel costs per gallon, lower fuel economy on EPA-mandated new engines, and the use of more costly ultra-low sulfur diesel fuel.
Total revenue increased by $39.6 million, or 7.5%, to $568.2 million for fiscal 2011, from $528.6 million for fiscal 2010. Freight revenue increased by $15.5 million, or 3.4%, to $467.0 million for fiscal 2011, from $451.5 million for fiscal 2010. This increase was primarily attributable to an increase in freight rates, due to the slowly recovering economy and reduced capacity. Average freight revenue per total mile, excluding fuel surcharge, increased to $1.326 in fiscal 2011 from $1.267 for fiscal 2010, or 4.7%. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in billed miles to 248.5 million in fiscal 2011, compared to 263.6 million in fiscal 2010. Average freight revenue per seated tractor per week increased to $2,868 in fiscal 2011, from $2,846 for fiscal 2010, as a result of an increase in freight rates. Our freight rates improved throughout the fiscal 2011 year.
Fuel expenses, net of fuel surcharge revenue of $101.2 million and $77.1 million for fiscal 2011 and fiscal 2010, respectively, decreased to $37.3 million, or 8.0% of freight revenue, for fiscal 2011, compared to $48.1 million, or 10.6% of freight revenue, for fiscal 2010. These decreases were attributable to a decrease in gallons purchased due to decreased miles driven, offset by a 22.1% increase in average fuel prices to $3.43 per gallon for fiscal 2011, from $2.81 per gallon for fiscal 2010.

Highlight of Business Operations:
We believe that a slowly improving economy and decreased industry-wide trucking capacity in fiscal 2012 compared to fiscal 2011 were the major factors that contributed to our increase in net income. Average freight revenue per loaded mile excluding fuel surcharge for 2012 increased 3.6% to $1.535 compared with $1.481 per mile in 2011. Average freight revenue per tractor per week was flat at $2,869 in 2012 compared with $2,866 for 2011, as an improvement in rates was partially offset by fewer miles per seated tractor. Our operating margin, excluding the effect of fuel surcharge (which is calculated as the percentage of operating expenses net of fuel surcharge over trucking revenue), improved to 90.2% for 2012 compared with 93.4% for 2011.Total revenue increased by $30.8 million, or 5.4%, to $599.0 million for fiscal 2012, from $568.2 million for fiscal 2011.
