Revenues increased (in constant currency) across all three brands, all three regions, and fall three distribution channels compared with the third quarter of fiscal 2011. Revenue increased 10 percent to $286.1 million in the Americas from $260.2 million, and was up 12 percent in constant currency. In Europe, revenue decreased 13 percent to $154.1 million from $176.4 million, and was up modestly in constant currency. In Asia Pacific, revenue increased 9 percent to $71.6 million from $65.5 million, and was up 13 percent in constant currency.
Strong revenue growth continued in the company's emerging markets, including Brazil, Russia and Indonesia.

"DC posted sales growth of 16 percent and e-commerce sales more
than doubled. European sales grew modestly, which positions us well
compared with our peers," McKnight continued. "In the area of
operational efficiencies, we made tough decisions during the quarter
regarding SG&A, including effecting staff eliminations in all our
regions, as well as reductions in other operating expenses. Also, after
implementing our new ERP system in the Americas in the second quarter,
we kicked off our European ERP rollout in the third quarter, which will
drive efficiencies by helping to integrate our operations and
standardize our business processes globally."
Gross margin was 49.5 percent of net revenues compared with 50.7 percent in the prior year period, primarily driven by lower gross margins in Europe due to higher levels of discounting and unfavorable currency exchange rate comparisons.
SG&A increased to $225.8 million compared with $221.2 million, up 10 basis points as a percentage of sales, primarily driven by $3.9 million of costs associated with staff eliminations and restructuring.
Pro-forma Adjusted EBITDA was $51.2 million compared with $52.7 million, with the decline largely driven by the contraction in gross margin mentioned above.
Net income was $12.6 million, or $0.07 per diluted share, compared with net income of $10.4 million, or $0.06 per diluted share.
Pro-forma income, which excludes $3.8 million of net after-tax restructuring charges and asset impairments, was $16.4 million, or $0.09 per diluted share, compared with pro-forma income of $10.4 million, or $0.06 per diluted share.
