text: Note 4 – Fair Value Measurements
text: Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value
text: The Company’s contingent earn-out liabilities are measured at fair value. These liabilities were estimated using Level 3 inputs. The fair value of contingent consideration was determined based on a probability-based approach which includes projected results, percentage probability of occurrence and the application of a discount rate to present value the payments. A significant change in projected results, discount rate, or probabilities of occurrence could result in a significantly higher or lower fair value measurement. Changes in the fair value of contingent earn-out liabilities are reflected in operating expenses on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.
text: The following table presents the changes in Level 3 contingent earn-out liabilities:
text: In May 2019, the Company fully settled its Del Monte earn-out liability for $200. The long-term portion of contingent earn-out liabilities was $7,957 and $2,792 as of December 27, 2019 and December 28, 2018, respectively, and are reflected as other liabilities and deferred credits on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The remaining short-term portion of earn-out liabilities are reflected as accrued liabilities on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Contingent earn-out liability payments in excess of the acquisition date fair value of the underlying contingent earn-out liability are classified as operating activities on the Company’s consolidated statements of cash flows and all other such payments are classified as financing activities.

text: In September 2017, we entered into an agreement to sell certain land and buildings located in Sunnyvale, California, with a book value of $118 million, for a total of $306 million, through two separate and independent closings. Upon the completion of the first closing in fiscal 2018, we consummated the sale of properties with a net book value of $66 million for cash proceeds of $210 million, resulting in a gain, net of direct selling costs, of $142 million. The remaining properties, consisting of land with a net book value of $52 million, were classified as assets held-for-sale, and included as other current assets in our consolidated balance sheets as of April 26, 2019 and April 27, 2018. We will consummate the sale of these properties, and receive cash proceeds of $96 million, upon the completion of the second closing, which is expected to occur within the next 12 months. That closing is subject to due diligence, certain termination rights and customary closing conditions, including local governmental approval of the subdivision of a land parcel.

text: Revenues
text: Our Products and Licensing segment included revenues from sales of test and measurement systems, primarily representing sales of our Optical Backscatter Reflectometer, ODiSI, and Optical Vector Analyzer platforms, optical components and sub-assemblies and sales of our Hyperion and Terahertz sensing platforms. Our Products and Licensing segment revenues increased $22.5 million to $44.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2019 compared to $21.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2018.
text: The increase resulted primarily from $10.8 million of revenues realized from the legacy business of MOI and $10.5 million of revenues realized from the legacy business of GP during the year ended December 31, 2019. Continued growth in sales of our fiber-optic sensing products, including our ODiSI products directed toward the expanding use of composite materials and the need for improved means of testing their structural integrity, and our communications test instruments also contributed to this increase.
text: Our Technology Development segment revenues increased $5.1 million to $26.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2019 compared to $21.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2018. Revenues within this segment increased due to additional contract awards, including higher value Phase 2 SBIR contracts. The increase continues a growth trend experienced over the past two years largely driven by successes in Phase 2 SBIR awards. The increase was realized primarily in our intelligent systems, advanced materials, optical systems and terahertz research groups. As Phase 2 SBIR contracts generally have a performance period of a year or more, we currently expect Technology Development segment revenues to remain at a similar level for the near term.

Questions:
question: What led to revenues within Technology Development segment to increase from 2018 to 2019?

text: The following table sets forth net sales, operating income, and operating income as a percentage of net sales for our MSA reportable segment in fiscal years 2019 and 2018 (amounts in thousands, except percentages).
text: Net Sales MSA net sales of $240.7 million in fiscal year 2019 increased $13.8 million or 6.1% from $227.0 million in fiscal year 2018. The increase in net sales was primarily driven by a $15.0 million increase in OEM sales in the JPKO region. Also contributing to the increase in net sales was a $4.3 million increase in EMS sales across all regions and a $3.7 million increase in distributor sales across the Americas and EMEA regions. These increase in net sales were partially offset by a $5.5 million decrease in distributor sales across the APAC and JPKO regions and a $3.8 million decrease in OEM sales across the Americas, APAC, and JPKO regions.
text: Reportable Segment Operating Income
text: Segment operating income of $22.5 million in fiscal year 2019 increased $6.9 million from $15.7 million in fiscal year 2018. The increase in operating income was primarily due to a $6.6 million decrease in SG&A expenses resulting from a decrease in payroll expenses that was caused by a reduction in head count. Also contributing to the increase in operating income was a $2.9 million decrease in restructuring charges, a $1.3 million decrease in net loss on write down and disposal of long-lived assets, and a $0.2 million decrease in R&D expenses. Partially offsetting these improvements was a $4.1 million decrease in gross margin, which was primarily driven by a change in the sales mix to lower margin products.

Questions:
question: What was the main driver of MSA net sales increase between 2018 and 2019?
