the increase in total operating income was driven by the following : 2022 operating income in our north america operating segment decreased $ 52.5 million to $ 408.4 million in 2016 from $ 461.0 million in 2015 primarily due to decreases in gross margin discussed above in the consolidated results of operations and $ 17.0 million in expenses related to the liquidation of the sports authority , comprised of $ 15.2 million in bad debt expense and $ 1.8 million of in-store fixture impairment .
in addition , this decrease reflects the movement of $ 11.1 million in expenses resulting from a strategic shift in headcount supporting our global business from our connected fitness operating segment to north america .
this decrease is partially offset by the increases in revenue discussed above in the consolidated results of operations .

seasonality historically , we have recognized a majority of our net revenues and a significant portion of our income from operations in the last two quarters of the year , driven primarily by increased sales volume of our products during the fall selling season , including our higher priced cold weather products , along with a larger proportion of higher margin direct to consumer sales .
the level of our working capital generally reflects the seasonality and growth in our business .
we generally expect inventory , accounts payable and certain accrued expenses to be higher in the second and third quarters in preparation for the fall selling season. .
