The following table provides the weighted average actuarial assumptions used to determine net periodic benefit costfor years ended:
For domestic plans, the discount rate was determined by comparison against the FTSE pension liability index for AA rated corporate instruments. The Company monitors other indices to assure that the pension obligations are fairly reported on a consistent basis. The international discount rates were determined by comparison against country specific AA corporate indices, adjusted for duration of the obligation.
The periodic benefit cost and the actuarial present value of projected benefit obligations are based on actuarial assumptions that are reviewed on an annual basis. The Company revises these assumptions based on an annual evaluation of longterm trends, as well as market conditions that may have an impact on the cost of providing retirement benefits.

On a constant currency basis, our non-operating income, net decreased in fiscal 2019 compared to fiscal 2018 primarily due to decreases in other income, net in fiscal 2019 , which was primarily attributable to realized gains on the sale of certa in marketable securities during fiscal 2018 , and lower interest income in fiscal 2019 primarily due to lower average cash, cash equivalent and marketable securities balances during fiscal 2019 .

Results of Operations: Years Ended December 31, 2018, versus Year Ended December 31, 2017 (Amounts in thousands, except percentages and per share amounts):
Capital Resources
Long-term debt was comprised of the following:
On February 12, 2019, we entered into an amended and restated five-year Credit Agreement with a group of banks (the "Credit Agreement") to extend the term of the facility. The Credit Agreement provides for a revolving credit facility of $300,000, which may be increased by $150,000 at the request of the Company, subject to the administrative agent's approval. This new unsecured credit facility replaces the prior $300,000 unsecured credit facility, which would have expired August 10, 2020. Borrowings of $50,000 under the prior credit agreement were refinanced into the Credit Agreement. The prior agreement was terminated as of February 12, 2019.
The Revolving Credit Facility includes a swing line sublimit of $15,000 and a letter of credit sublimit of $10,000. Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at the base rate defined in the Credit Agreement. We also pay a quarterly commitment fee on the unused portion of the Revolving Credit Facility. The commitment fee ranges from 0.20% to 0.30% based on the our total leverage ratio.
We have entered into interest rate swap agreements to fix interest rates on $50,000 of long-term debt through February 2024. The difference to be paid or received under the terms of the swap agreements is recognized as an adjustment to interest expense when settled.
We have historically funded our capital and operating needs primarily through cash flows from operating activities, supported by available credit under our Revolving Credit Facility. We believe that cash flows from operating activities and available borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility will be adequate to fund our working capital needs, capital expenditures, and debt service requirements for at least the next twelve months. However, we may choose to pursue additional equity and debt financing to provide additional liquidity or to fund acquisitions.

Retail TV
(1) As of January 1, 2019, we are no longer reporting wholesale subscribers in our TV subscriber base reflecting our focus on the retail market. Consequently, we restated previously reported 2018 subscribers for comparability.
Retail IPTV net subscriber activations decreased by 17.4% in 2019, compared to last year, resulting from the impact of a maturing Fibe TV market, slower new service footprint growth and greater substitution of traditional TV services with OTT services, partly offset by higher Alt TV activations.
Retail satellite TV net customer losses improved by 4.3% compared to 2018, attributable to lower deactivations, reflecting a more mature subscriber base geographically better-suited for satellite TV service.
Total retail TV net subscriber activations (IPTV and satellite TV combined) decreased by 71.9% in 2019, compared to last year, due to lower IPTV net activations, moderated by fewer satellite TV net losses.
Retail IPTV subscribers at December 31, 2019 totaled 1,767,182, up 5.5% from 1,675,706 subscribers reported at the end of 2018.
Retail satellite TV subscribers at December 31, 2019 totaled 1,005,282, down 7.8% from 1,090,705 subscribers at the end of last year.
Total retail TV subscribers (IPTV and satellite TV combined) at December 31, 2019 were 2,772,464, representing a 0.2% increase since the end of 2018.

Interest income increased $1.2 million primarily as a result of higher weighted-average balances of cash, cash equivalents and investments and higher yields on investments.
Interest expense increased $5.3 million primarily as a result of interest expense of $3.3 million associated with our long-term debt and our financing lease obligation of $2.0 million in connection with the construction of our Lexington, MA – U.S. headquarters.
Foreign exchange expense and other, net decreased by $3.1 million primarily as a result of a decrease in foreign exchange expense of $1.9 million, sublease income of $0.9 million and a gain on a previously held asset related to the Solebit acquisition of $0.3 million.

RSU Activity We grant RSUs, which represent the right to receive shares of our common stock. Vesting for RSUs is contingent upon the holders’ continued employment with us and may be subject to other conditions (which may include the satisfaction of a performance measure). Also, certain of our performance-based RSUs include a range of shares that may be released at vesting which are above or below the targeted number of RSUs based on actual performance relative to the grant date performance measure. If the vesting conditions are not met, unvested RSUs will be forfeited. Upon vesting of the RSUs, we may withhold shares otherwise deliverable to satisfy tax withholding requirements.
The following table summarizes our RSU activity with performance-based RSUs presented at the maximum potential shares that could be earned and issued at vesting (amounts in thousands except per share amounts):
Certain of our performance-based RSUs did not have an accounting grant date as of December 31, 2019, as there is not a mutual understanding between the Company and the employee of the performance terms. Generally, these performance terms relate to operating income performance for future years where the performance goals have not yet been set. As of December 31, 2019, there were 3.2 million performance-based RSUs outstanding for which the accounting grant date has not been set, of which 1.9 million were 2019 grants. Accordingly, no grant date fair value was established and the weighted average grant date fair value calculated above for 2019 grants excludes these RSUs.
At December 31, 2019, approximately $96 million of total unrecognized compensation cost was related to RSUs and is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.64 years. Of the total unrecognized compensation cost, $50 million was related to performance-based RSUs, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.63 years. The total grant date fair value of vested RSUs was $147 million, $120 million and $64 million for the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018, and 2017, respectively.
The income tax benefit from stock option exercises and RSU vestings was $47 million, $94 million, and $160 million for the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018, and 2017, respectively.

Selling and Administrative Expenses. Selling and administrative expenses increased $124.2 million in 2019 compared to 2018. Our selling and administrative expenses by major expense type for 2019 and 2018 were as follows (dollars in thousands):
Selling and administrative expenses increased approximately 70 basis points as a percentage of net sales in 2019 compared to 2018. The increase in expenses reflects the addition of PCM to our North America and EMEA segments, effective August 30, 2019.
The addition of PCM and increased variable compensation resulting from increased sales and gross profit in 2019 compared to 2018 were the primary drivers for the $90.9 million increase in personnel costs. PCM was also the primary driver for year over year increases in facilities, travel and entertainment, and marketing expenses.
Depreciation and amortization expense increased approximately $8.8 million year over year, primarily due to additional amortization expense on newly acquired intangible assets.

Research and development expenses consist primarily of payroll and payroll-related benefits expenses, contracted research and development expenses, and facility costs. Research and development assists with organic growth and improves product stability and functionality, and accordingly, we dedicate extensive efforts to update and upgrade our product offerings. The primary driver is typically budgeted software upgrades and software development.
Research and development expenses decreased by $1.1 million during the year ended June 30, 2019 as compared to the prior fiscal year. This was primarily due to a reduction in contract labour and consulting of $6.8 million and a reduction in the use of facility and related expenses of $4.8 million, partially offset by an increase in payroll and payroll-related benefits of $12.6 million. The increase in payroll and payroll-related benefits was driven primarily by increased headcount from recent acquisitions. Overall, our research and development expenses, as a percentage of total revenues, remained stable at approximately 11% compared to prior fiscal year.
Our research and development labour resources increased by 336 employees, from 3,331 employees at June 30, 2018 to 3,667 employees at June 30, 2019.
