Capital asset purchases associated with the Retail segment were $294 million in 2007, bringing the total capital asset purchases since inception of the Retail segment to $1.0 billion.
As of September 29, 2007, the Retail segment had approximately 7,900 employees and had outstanding operating lease commitments associated with retail store space and related facilities of $1.1 billion.
The Company would incur substantial costs if it were to close multiple retail stores.
Such costs could adversely affect the Company’s financial condition and operating results.
Other Segments The Company’s Other Segments, which consists of its Asia Pacific and FileMaker operations, experienced an increase in net sales of $406 million, or 30% during 2007 compared to 2006.
This increase related primarily to a 58% increase in sales of Mac portable products and strong iPod sales in the Company’s Asia Pacific region.
During 2006, net sales in Other Segments increased 35% compared to 2005 primarily due to an increase in sales of iPod and Mac portable products.
Strong sales growth was a result of the introduction of the updated iPods featuring video-playing capabilities and the new Intel-based Mac portable products that translated to a 16% increase in Mac unit sales during 2006 compared to 2005.
Gross Margin Gross margin for each of the last three fiscal years are as follows (in millions, except gross margin percentages):
## Table 0 ##
Gross margin percentage of 34.0% in 2007 increased significantly from 29.0% in 2006.
The primary drivers of this increase were more favorable costs on certain commodity components, including NAND flash memory and DRAM memory, higher overall revenue that provided for more leverage on fixed production costs and a higher percentage of revenue from the Company’s direct sales channels.
The Company anticipates that its gross margin and the gross margins of the personal computer, consumer electronics and mobile communication industries will be subject to pressure due to price competition.
The Company expects gross margin percentage to decline sequentially in the first quarter of 2008 primarily as a result of the full-quarter impact of product transitions and reduced pricing that were effected in the fourth quarter of 2007, lower sales of iLife and iWork in their second quarter of availability, seasonally higher component costs, and a higher mix of indirect sales.
These factors are expected to be partially offset by higher sales of the Company’s Mac OS X operating system due to the introduction of Mac OS X Version 10.5 Leopard (‘‘Mac OS X Leopard’’) that became available in October 2007.
The foregoing statements regarding the Company’s expected gross margin percentage are forward-looking.
There can be no assurance that current gross margin percentage will be maintained or targeted gross margin percentage levels will be achieved.
In general, gross margins and margins on individual products will remain under downward pressure due to a variety of factors, including continued industry wide global pricing pressures, increased competition, compressed product life cycles, potential increases in the cost and availability of raw material and outside manufacturing services, and a potential shift in the Company’s sales mix towards products with lower gross margins.
In response to these competitive pressures, the Company expects it will continue to take pricing actions with respect to its products.
Gross margins could also be affected by the Company’s ability to effectively manage product quality and warranty costs and to stimulate

The following table presents net revenues by product category for the years ended December 29, 2013, December 30, 2012 and December 25, 2011.
## Table 1 ##
For the year ended December 29, 2013, decreased net revenues in boys category were almost wholly offset by increases in the games, girls and preschool categories.
For the year ended December 30, 2012, decreased net revenues in the boys and preschool categories were partially offset by increases in the girls and games categories.
BOYS: Net revenues in the boys’ category decreased 22% in 2013 compared to 2012, primarily as a result of lower net sales of products related to the key licensed brands BEYBLADE, MARVEL and, to a lesser extent, STAR WARS.
In 2012, net revenues benefited from higher sales of MARVEL products based on the theatrical releases of MARVEL’S THE AVENGERS and THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN.
During 2013, the Company’s MARVEL sales were primarily related to the theatrical release of IRON MAN 3.
The Company’s franchise brands, TRANSFORMERS and NERF, experienced moderate growth in 2013 compared to 2012 as a result of successful television programming and product innovation.
Net revenues in the boys’ category decreased 13% in 2012 compared to 2011 as a result of lower net revenues from TRANSFORMERS and BEYBLADE products, which were partially offset by higher sales of MARVEL products, primarily due to sales of products based on the aforementioned theatrical releases.
In 2011, TRANSFORMERS net revenues were positively impacted by the theatrical release of TRANSFORMERS: DARK OF THE MOON in June 2011.
Also, 2011 marked the first full year of sales of BEYBLADE products, which were re-introduced during the second half of 2010.
GAMES: Net revenues in the games category increased 10% in 2013 compared to 2012.
Several brands contributed to this growth including, but not limited to, MAGIC: THE GATHERING, JENGA, including sales of products co-branded under ANGRY BIRDS STAR WARS, ELEFUN & FRIENDS, MONOPOLY, including the introduction of MONOPOLY EMPIRE products, DUEL MASTERS, and TWISTER, including TWISTER RAVE.
These higher net revenues were partially offset by lower net revenues from other game brands, including BATTLESHIP and SCRABBLE.
Net revenues increased 2% in 2012 compared to 2011 as a result of higher net
