service operations are conducted in the united states ( u.s. ) and approximately 50 other countries around the world . we also sell our products through independent agents , distributors and representatives in additional countries . the electronics market segment consists of customers in semiconductor integrated circuit manufacturing and related industries such as manufacturers of data storage equipment and other technologies . for the semiconductor market , our growth is driven by shrinking line widths and process nodes of 45 nanometers and smaller , increasing complexity in their materials such as high-k metal gates and low-k dielectrics and increasing device complexity such as 3d transistor architectures . our products are used primarily in laboratories or near the fabrication line to speed new product development and increase yields by enabling 3d wafer metrology , defect analysis , root cause failure analysis and circuit edit for modifying device functionality . 24 the materials science market segment includes universities , public and private research laboratories and customers in a wide range of industries , including natural resources ( mining and oil and gas ) , petrochemicals , metals , automobiles , aerospace , and forensics . growth in these markets is driven by global corporate and government funding for research and development in materials science and by development of new products and processes based on innovations in materials at the nanoscale . our solutions enable scientific discovery and advancement for researchers and help manufacturers develop , analyze and produce advanced products . our products are used in mining for automated mineralogy and we have opportunities in oil and gas exploration and laboratory analysis . our products are also used in root cause failure analysis and quality control applications across a range of industries . the life sciences market segment includes universities , government laboratories and research institutes engaged in biotech and life sciences applications , as well as pharmaceutical , biotech and medical device companies and hospitals . our products ' ultra-high resolution imaging allows structural biologists to create detailed 3d reconstructions of complex biological structures such as proteins and viruses . cellular biologists use our tools to correlate wide-field , lower resolution optical images with higher resolution electron microscope imaging . our products are also used by drug researchers and in particle analysis and a range of pathology and quality control applications . the service and components market segment provides support for products and customers for the entire life cycle of a tool from installation through the warranty period , and after warranty period through contract coverage or on a time and materials basis . we believe strong technical support is an important part of the value proposition that we offer customers when a tool is sold . our service and components market segment provides support across all markets and all regions . sales and backlog net sales increased to $ 891.7 million in 2012 compared to $ 826.4 million in 2011 . this increase reflects increases in all of our market segments , except life sciences , as described more fully below . at december 31 , 2012 , our total backlog was $ 424.8 million compared to $ 430.7 million at december 31 , 2011 . as discussed in the section entitled “ business ” included in part i , item 1 of this annual report on form 10-k , orders received in a particular period that can not be built and shipped to the customer in that period represent backlog . outlook for 2013 during 2012 , we experienced revenue growth of 8 % over 2011 and we expect another year of moderate growth in 2013. our backlog has stabilized at just under 6 months of revenue at current run rates and we expect revenue and bookings growth to be approximately equal in the coming year . in january 2013 , we executed a business reorganization that divided our operations into two primary groups . the business groups are titled industry and science and beginning in 2013 , we will report our revenue and earnings in two segments that align with these business groups . service revenue will be reported as part of each group . electronics revenue was up in 2012. we expect the early part of 2013 to be below 2012 levels , but believe electronics bookings and revenue will increase as the year progresses . the semiconductor capital equipment industry experienced a cyclical downturn at the end of 2012 and we expect it will continue in early to mid 2013. because our equipment is used in laboratories for new process development and yield improvement , we are less affected by cyclical swings than some equipment suppliers , but the industry downturn does have some impact . story_separator_special_tag we periodically receive funds from various organizations to subsidize our research and development . these funds are reported as an offset to research and development expense . during the 2012 , 2011 and 2010 periods , we received subsidies from european governments for technological developments for semiconductor and life sciences equipment . r & d costs , net of subsidies , were as follows ( in thousands ) : replace_table_token_10_th r & d costs increased in 2012 compared to 2011 primarily due to increased headcount and project spending to support current growth opportunities , as well as the inclusion of the r & d expenses for our recently acquired companies , till , aspex and vsg . currency fluctuations reduced r & d costs by $ 5.1 million in 2012 compared to 2011 . r & d costs increased in 2011 compared to 2010 primarily due to increased headcount and employee incentive compensation . the impact of currency fluctuations on r & d costs was an increase of $ 2.7 million in 2011 compared to 2010 . we anticipate that we will invest between 10 % and 11 % of revenue in r & d for the foreseeable future . accordingly , as revenues increase , we currently anticipate that r & d expenditures will also increase . actual future spending , however , will depend on market conditions . selling , general and administrative costs selling , general and administrative ( “ sg & a ” ) costs include labor , travel , outside services and overhead incurred in our sales , marketing , management and administrative support functions . sg & a costs also include sales commissions paid to our employees as well as to our agents . sg & a costs increased $ 10.9 million , or 6.9 % , in 2012 compared to 2011 primarily due to increased headcount , higher stock-based compensation cost associated with a higher stock price and more commissions paid as a result of increased sales . also causing the increase is the inclusion of sg & a costs of our four recently acquired companies , including amortization expense of the acquired intangibles , and the costs associated with executing the acquisitions . currency fluctuations decreased sg & a costs by $ 4.9 million in 2012 compared to 2011 . sg & a costs increased in $ 22.3 million , or 16.4 % , in 2011 compared to 2010 primarily due to increased commissions driven by the increase in revenue and increased employee incentive compensation , as well as an impairment charge of $ 1.4 million to write off the unamortized value of intellectual property and a $ 5.3 million charge for contingent litigation accruals . this activity was partially offset by a decrease in bad debt write-offs . in the first quarter of 2010 , we recorded a $ 2.1 million charge to fully write off amounts receivable from one customer . currency fluctuations increased sg & a costs by $ 3.9 million in 2011 compared to 2010 . 30 restructuring , reorganization , relocation and severance group structure reorganization in january 2013 , we announced our intention to reorganize the company into a group structure in order to enable us to efficiently execute our growth strategy . the reorganization will be effective beginning in the first quarter of 2013 and is expected to be implemented over the next six months . the costs associated with the reorganization will include primarily severance costs and we anticipate that it will result in the termination of certain positions throughout the company . in anticipation of this reorganization , we incurred $ 2.9 million of severance costs during the fourth quarter of 2012 and as the reorganization continues , we expect to incur approximately $ 1.9 million in additional restructuring charges . all of the costs related to this plan are expected to result in cash expenditures and we currently expect the total cost of the reorganization to be approximately $ 4.8 million . the reduction in positions as a result of the group structure reorganization is expected to reduce operating expenses by approximately $ 3 million per year when fully implemented . manufacturing transfer in 2008 we entered into an arrangement to outsource aspects of our manufacturing processes . in 2011 , we notified our largest contract manufacturer , accounting for approximately 10 % of our revenue , that we were terminating the arrangement and that we would transfer the manufacturing process back to fei . the termination contract was signed during the fourth quarter of 2011 and the manufacturing process was transitioned back to fei as of april 2 , 2012. the costs associated with the termination of the outsourcing arrangement were accrued in the fourth quarter of 2011. no additional costs were incurred in 2012 and we do not expect to incur any significant additional costs associated with the termination of this arrangement . the insourcing of our manufacturing operations is expected to reduce manufacturing costs by approximately $ 2 million to $ 3 million per year when fully implemented . april 2010 restructuring on april 12 , 2010 , we announced a restructuring program to consolidate the manufacturing of our small dualbeam product line by relocating manufacturing activities currently performed at our facility in eindhoven , the netherlands to our facility in brno , czech republic . the balance of our small dualbeam product line is already based in brno . the move , which has been substantially completed , resulted in severance costs , costs to transfer the product line , costs to train brno employees and costs to build-out the existing brno facility to add capacity for the additional small dualbeam production . in addition to the product line move , the april 2010 restructuring plan involved organizational changes designed to improve the efficiency of our finance , research and development and other corporate programs and improve our market focus . costs incurred in connection with this plan
