Last: 42.75-0.17-0.40%
After closing, BA restated its 2008 and fourth quarter profit to reflect a wider loss for the quarter and a narrower profit for the full year. Boeing said the downward revision reflects the reduced value of aircraft and increased liabilities from an arbitration award. In its 10-K, Boeing said it lost 12 cents in the fourth quarter, compared to a loss of 8 cents reported on Jan. 28. It earned $3.67 for 2008, not $3.71, as previously reported by the aerospace giant.

Reported a fourth-quarter net loss of $321 million, or 74 cents a share. That compares to net income of $178 million, or 40 cents a share, a year earlier. On an operating basis, which excludes net realized investment gains and losses, Genworth said it lost $207 million, or 48 cents a share, in the latest quarter. Genworth was expected to make 39 cents a share, according to the average estimate of 13 analysts polled by FactSet Research.

Hartford Financial Services Group's (HIG)
Last: 15.03+2.35+18.53%
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services lowered counterparty credit rating to A- from A and placed its ratings on CreditWatch with negative implications. "Because of the sharply lower equity markets, Hartford's earnings from equity-linked products have decreased, and actual and potential reserve and capital requirements have increased. Compounding these pressures are concerns that investment losses could increase beyond expectations for the ratings unless general economic conditions stabilize," said Robert Hafner, an S&P credit analyst. The ratings agency is expected to resolve Hartford's review status within a month at which time it could either affirm the ratings and assign a negative outlook or lower the ratings by one notch.
HIG close at 14,16 in AH trading
Lionsgate Entertainment Corp. (LGF)
Last: 5.33-0.17-3.09%
Reported it swung to a net loss of $93.4 million, or 81 cents a share, from a net income of $7.3 million, or 6 cents a share, in the same quarter last year. The company blamed the quarterly loss to the underperformance of its feature films. Revenue increased to $324 million from $299 million a year earlier, the entertainment studio said. Analysts surveyed by FactSet Research had forecast a loss of 25 cents a share on revenue of $344.7 million.
LGF close at 4,99 in AH trading
Bank of America Corp. (BAC)
Last: 6.89+0.75+12.21%
Plans to cut less than 1,000 support staff positions, according to a media report. The job cuts, which are under 10% of total branch support staff, are likely to include some client associate and sales assistant positions, the Wall Street Journal reported in its online edition. The move is aimed at reducing costs and follows on the heels of the high-profile firing of former Chief Executive John Thain last month.
BAC close at 6,68 in AH trading
Pfizer Inc. (PFE)
Last: 14.71-0.13-0.88%
Plans to publicly disclose its compensation to U.S. healthcare professionals for consulting, speaking engagements and clinical trials in a bid to boost transparency. The disclosure will include payments made to practicing physicians, principal investigators, major academic institutions and research sites for clinical research, the pharmaceutical giant said. Pfizer plans to publish its first report in early 2010, starting with payments from July 1, 2009
Principal Financial (PFG)
Last: 17.03+0.20+1.19%
Said fourth-quarter net income came in at less than $1 million, down 98% from a year earlier when the retirement savings specialist made $42.4 million. The net loss available to common shareholders was $7.5 million, or three cents a share, versus net income available to common shareholders of $34.1 million, or 13 cents a share, a year earlier. Operating earnings, which exclude net realized investment gains and losses, were $179 million, or 69 cents a share, the company said. Principal Financial was expected to make 68 cents a share, according to the average estimate of 13 analysts in a FactSet Research survey.
PFG close at 12.94 in AH trading
Republic Services (RSG)
Last: 24.54+0.10+0.41%
Will sell certain assets to California-based Waste Connections Inc. following Republic Services' merger with Allied Waste Industries in December. Among the assets being sold are six municipal landfills, six collection operations and three transfer stations. The combined revenue of the assets being sold is about $110 million. The sale is in line with conditions set by the Department of Justice to approve its merger with Allied Waste Industries. Republic Services will use the funds from the sale to pay down debt.
Starbucks Corp.'s (SBUX)
Last: 10.72+0.19+1.80%
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services lowered outlook to negative from stable and also downgraded its short-term rating to A-3 from A-2. At the same time, S&P affirmed its corporate credit rating of BBB. "While Starbucks has announced cost-cutting initiatives and a further reduction of unprofitable stores, we do not expect meaningful improvement in credit metrics during fiscal 2009 due to market conditions that we believe will continue to hurt top-line growth," said Jackie Oberoi, an S&P credit analyst.
SBUX close at 10.60 in AH trading
