Paragraphs:
A discussion of operating income by reportable segment is presented below (in millions):
AMER. Operating income increased $19.2 million in fiscal 2019 as compared to fiscal 2018, primarily as a result of the increase in net sales and a positive shift in customer mix, partially offset by increased fixed costs to support new program ramps.
APAC. Operating income decreased $5.7 million in fiscal 2019 as compared to fiscal 2018, primarily as a result of a negative shift in customer mix and increased fixed costs to support new program ramps, partially offset by the increase in net sales.
EMEA. Operating income increased $3.0 million in fiscal 2019 as compared to fiscal 2018 primarily as a result of the increase in net sales and a positive shift in customer mix, partially offset by increased fixed costs to support new program ramps.
Other expense. Other expense for fiscal 2019 increased $5.4 million as compared to fiscal 2018. The increase in other expense for fiscal 2019 was primarily due to a $2.7 million decrease in interest income as a result of lower cash balances and a $1.5 million increase in factoring fees related to the Company's accounts receivable sale programs.
Question:
