Gross profit decreased to $980 million in fiscal 2012 from $1.02 billion in fiscal 2011. Gross margin decreased to 48.7% of net revenues in fiscal 2012 from 52.4% in the prior year, a decrease of 370 basis points. We experienced gross margin decreases across all three of our regional segments during fiscal 2012, primarily due to increased clearance sales at lower margins within our wholesale channel compared to last year (240 basis points), increased discounting within our retail channel (80 basis points), and the impact of changes in the geographical composition of our net revenues. We experienced net revenue growth in our Americas and APAC segments, but experienced a net revenue decrease in EMEA, which is historically our highest gross profit segment. Gross margin as a percentage of net revenues by regional segment for each of fiscal 2012 and 2011 was as follows:
Our total net revenues increased 6% in fiscal 2011 to $1,953 million from $1,838 million in fiscal 2010. In constant currency, net revenues increased 3% compared to the prior year. The following table presents net revenues (in millions) by segment in historical currency for fiscal 2011 and 2010:
Our SG&A increased 8% in fiscal 2011 to $896 million from $832 million in fiscal 2010. As a percentage of net revenues, SG&A increased to 45.9% of revenues in fiscal 2011 compared to 45.3% in fiscal 2010. SG&A by segment for fiscal 2011 and 2010 was as follows:
In the Americas, SG&A expenses increased 11% to $361 million in fiscal 2011 from $325 million in fiscal 2010. SG&A as a percentage of revenues increased to 39.5% compared to 38.5% in the prior year. The increase in SG&A as a percentage of revenues in the Americas was primarily due to additional spending to support growth initiatives, including marketing, retail and e-commerce expenses. In EMEA, SG&A was unchanged at $340 million. SG&A as a percentage of revenues decreased to 44.7% compared to 46.7% in the prior year. The decrease in SG&A as a percentage of revenues in EMEA was primarily due to lower retail store expenses resulting from fewer retail stores. EMEAs SG&A decreased 3% in constant currency. In APAC, SG&A increased 15% to $148 million from $128 million for those same periods. SG&A as a percentage of revenues increased to 54.3% compared to 49.2% in the prior year. In APAC, the increase in SG&A as a percentage of revenues was primarily the result of lower revenues and, to a lesser extent, the cost of operating additional retail stores. APACs SG&A increased 2% in constant currency.

Highlight of Business Operations:
In constant currency, net revenues increased 7% compared to the prior year. Net revenues in the Americas segment increased 10% versus the prior year due to low double-digit percentage growth across all three core brands (Quiksilver, Roxy and DC) and growth across all three distribution channels, particularly within the wholesale channel. Net revenues in the EMEA segment increased 1% versus the prior year with low double-digit percentage growth in DC revenues largely offset by high-single digit percentage declines in Quiksilver and Roxy revenues. Growth in the e-commerce and retail channels within EMEA were offset by a decline in the wholesale channel. Net revenues declined a combined 15% in constant currency within the wholesale and retail channels in the United Kingdom and Spain due to the negative economic circumstances in those countries. These declines were offset by significant e-commerce net revenue growth, partially due to an acquisition in the United Kingdom, as well as net revenue growth in Russia and Germany. Net revenues in the APAC segment increased 12% due to strong growth across all three core brands as well as in the wholesale and retail distribution channels. Net revenue growth in emerging markets, particularly Indonesia and South Korea, contributed significantly to the APAC net revenue growth.Gross profit decreased to $980 million in fiscal 2012 from $1.02 billion in fiscal 2011.
