results are presented for fiscal year 2013 and 2012 (in thousands):
Segment net sales of $390.1 million in 2013 increased $28.4 million , or 7.9%
, from 2012 primarily due to an increase in our subscriber base and an increase in patent
and technology related licensing revenues.
Segment gross profit of $320.2 million in 2013 increased $23.6 million
from 2012 primarily due to an increase in net sales between the periods. The gross profit as a
percentage of revenues for 2013 was consistent with the prior comparable period.
Segment operating expenses of $121.3 million in 2013 increased $12.0 million
from 2012 primarily due to (a) an increase in sales and marketing costs primarily due to
additional advertising and personnel costs associated with businesses acquired in and subsequent to 2012 and (b) additional depreciation and amortization associated with
businesses acquired in and subsequent to 2012.
As a result of these factors, segment operating earnings of $198.9 million in 2013 increased $11.6 million , or 6.2% , from 2012.
Digital Media
As our Digital Media segment was established as a result of the acquisition of Ziff Davis, Inc. on November 9, 2012, the increase from 2012 to 2013 is due to a full year of
activity in fiscal year 2013. The following segment results are presented for fiscal year 2013 and 2012 (in thousands):
