Our total revenues increased 11.1 percent in the first quarter of 2017 compared to the first quarter of 2016. The increase in total revenues was driven by volume growth across all of our transportation services. Our total net revenues increased 0.9 percent in the first quarter of 2017 compared to the first quarter of 2016. APC Logistics (“APC”), which was acquired at the close of business on September 30, 2016, represented approximately two percent of our total net revenues in the first quarter of 2017.
For the first quarter, our total operating expenses increased 4.5 percent. Personnel expenses increased 4.7 percent in the first quarter of 2017 compared to the first quarter of 2016. The increase in personnel expense was the result of an increase in average headcount of 7.8 percent in the first quarter of 2017 compared to the first quarter of 2016, partially offset by decreased expenses related to incentive plans that are designed to keep expenses variable with changes in net revenues and profitability. Selling, general, and administrative expenses increased 3.7 percent. This increase was driven by increases in costs related to the APC acquisition, the provision for bad debt, and warehouse costs, partially offset by the collection of a previously resolved legal claim of $8.75 million.

Interest and other expenses increased approximately $0.5 million, or 6.0 percent, in the first quarter of 2017 compared to the first quarter of 2016. Interest expense increased due to higher average short term debt balance and higher interest on the outstanding balance of those borrowings. This was partially offset by decreased revaluation impact related to foreign currency.
The provision for income taxes decreased 20.6 percent in the first quarter of 2017 compared to the first quarter of 2016. During the first quarter of 2017, we adopted ASU 2016-09, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718). The adoption of ASU 2016-09 prospectively impacts the recording of income taxes related to share-based payment awards in our consolidated statement of financial position and results of operations, as well as the operating and financing cash flows on the consolidated statements of cash flows. This adoption resulted in a decrease in our provision for income taxes of $9.3 million in the first quarter of 2017.
Results by Segment
Our three reportable segments are: North American Surface Transportation (“NAST”), Global Forwarding, and Robinson Fresh. The balance of our business is reported as “All Other and Corporate.” All Other and Corporate includes our non-reportable segments, including Managed Services and Other Surface Transportation.
NAST provides freight transportation services across North America through a network of offices in the United States, Canada, and Mexico. The primary services provided by NAST include truckload, less than truckload (“LTL”), and intermodal. Summarized financial results of our NAST segment are as follows (dollars in thousands):

NAST total revenues increased 10.5 percent to $2.3 billion in the first quarter of 2017 from $2.0 billion in the first quarter of 2016. This increase was driven by volume increases in all services. NAST net revenues decreased 3.0 percent to $372.4 million in the first quarter of 2017 compared to $383.8 million in the first quarter of 2016, primarily from a decline in truckload net revenues.
NAST truckload net revenues decreased 5.7 percent to $267.6 million in the first quarter of 2017 compared to $283.7 million in the first quarter of 2016, while truckload volumes increased approximately 11 percent. NAST truckload net revenue margin decreased in the first quarter of 2017 compared to the first quarter of 2016, due primarily to lower customer pricing.
NAST accounted for approximately 92 percent of our total North America truckload net revenues in both the first quarter of 2017 and 2016. The majority of the remaining North American truckload net revenues is included in Robinson Fresh. Excluding the estimated impacts of the change in fuel prices, our average North America truckload rate per mile charged to our customers decreased approximately four percent in the first quarter of 2017 compared to the first quarter of 2016. Our truckload transportation costs decreased approximately two percent, excluding the estimated impacts of the change in fuel prices.
NAST LTL net revenues increased 7.1 percent to $93.5 million in the first quarter of 2017 compared to $87.3 million in the first quarter of 2016. NAST LTL volumes increased approximately 8.5 percent in the first quarter of 2017 compared to the first quarter of 2016, and net revenue margin decreased slightly.
NAST intermodal net revenues decreased 17.3 percent to $7.2 million in the first quarter of 2017 compared to $8.7 million in the first quarter of 2016. This was primarily due to net revenue margin declines, partially offset by increased volumes. During the first quarter of 2017, intermodal opportunities were negatively impacted by the alternative lower cost truck market.

NAST operating expenses decreased 2.2 percent in the first quarter of 2017 to $216.6 million compared to $221.4 million in the first quarter of 2016. This decrease was due to the collection of a previously resolved legal claim of $8.75 million as well as decreases in personnel expenses. The decrease in personnel expense is related to incentive plans that are designed to keep expenses variable with changes in net revenues and profitability, partially offset by an increase in average headcount of 2.7 percent. The operating expenses of NAST and all other segments include allocated corporate expenses.
Global Forwarding provides global logistics services through an international network of offices in North America, Asia, Europe, Australia, and South America and also contracts with independent agents worldwide. The primary services provided by Global Forwarding include ocean freight services, airfreight services, and customs brokerage.

Global Forwarding net revenues increased 14.7 percent to $106.5 million in the first quarter of 2017 compared to $92.9 million in the first quarter of 2016.
Ocean net revenues increased 8.3 percent to $63.4 million in the first quarter of 2017 compared to $58.6 million in the first quarter of 2016. Ocean net revenues were negatively impacted by margin compression on contractual business with fixed pricing. Air net revenues increased 17.2 percent to $20.4 million in the first quarter of 2017 compared to $17.4 million in the first quarter of 2016. Customs net revenues increased 50.0 percent to $16.1 million in the first quarter of 2017 compared to $10.7 million in the first quarter of 2016. These increases were primarily due to volume increases, including those from APC.
Global Forwarding operating expenses increased 18.9 percent in the first quarter of 2017 to $90.3 million from $76.0 million in the first quarter of 2016. These increases were driven by an average headcount increase of 12.6 percent and the acquisition amortization related to the acquisition of APC.

Robinson Fresh total revenues decreased 2.4 percent to $550.4 million in the first quarter of 2017 from $564.1 million in the first quarter of 2016. Robinson Fresh net revenues decreased 2.3 percent to $56.8 million in the first quarter of 2017 compared to $58.2 million in the first quarter of 2016 as a result of declines in transportation net revenues, partially offset by increases in sourcing net revenues.
Robinson Fresh sourcing net revenues increased 3.9 percent to $30.4 million in the first quarter of 2017 compared to $29.3 million in the first quarter of 2016. This was primarily the result of higher net revenue margin due to lower product costs, partially offset by a decrease in case volumes.
Robinson Fresh transportation net revenues decreased 8.6 percent to $26.4 million in the first quarter of 2017 compared to $28.9 million in the first quarter of 2016, primarily due to decreases in truckload revenue, partially offset by increases in their other transportation services net revenues.

Robinson Fresh operating expenses increased 4.3 percent in the first quarter of 2017 to $42.2 million from $40.5 million in the first quarter of 2016. This was primarily due to an increase in warehousing expenses related to expanding facilities and an increase in average headcount.

It also includes any unallocated corporate expenses. Managed Services provides Transportation Management Service, or Managed TMS.
