Net Sales. Net sales increased by Euro863.6 million, or 13.9 percent, to Euro7,086.1 million in
2012 from Euro6,222.5 million in the same period of 2011. Euro316.7 million of such increase
was attributable to the increased sales in the manufacturing and wholesale distribution
segment in the twelve months of 2012 as compared to the same period in 2011 and in the
retail distribution segment of Euro546.9 million for the same period.
Net sales for the retail distribution segment increased by Euro546.9 million, or 14.5 percent,
to Euro4,313.1 million in 2012 from Euro3,766.1 million in 2011. The increase in net sales
for the period was partially attributable to a 5.8 percent improvement in comparable store
sales (10). In particular, there was a 5.5 percent increase in comparable store sales for the
North American retail operations, and an increase for the Australian/New Zealand retail
operations of 6.5 percent. The effects from currency fluctuations between the Euro(which
is our reporting currency) and other currencies in which we conduct business, in particular
the strengthening of the U.S. Dollar and Australian Dollar compared to the Euro, increased
net sales in the retail distribution segment by Euro327.3 million during the period.
Net sales to third parties in the manufacturing and wholesale distribution segment increased
by Euro316.7 million, or 12.9 percent, to Euro2,773.1 million in 2012 from Euro2,456.3 million
in 2011. This increase was mainly attributable to increased sales of most of our house brands,
in particular Ray-Ban and Oakley, which recorded high single digit optical growth, and Persol,
and of some designer brands such as Burberry, Prada, Polo, Tiffany and the additional sales
