SYMBOL LOOKUP

In October, the company predicted year-end earnings of $4.50 to $4.80 per unit.

Analysts surveyed by Thomson Financial forecast full year earnings of $4.64 per unit.

AllianceBernstein attributed the shortfall to "much lower-than-expected hedge fund performance fees and greater net mark-to-market losses on investments held for employee compensation plans."

The firm plans to report fourth-quarter and full year financial results on Jan. 23.

AllianceBernstein also reported that preliminary assets under management fell during the month of December by about $6 billion, or 0.7 percent, to $800 billion.

Shares added $2.72, or 3.7 percent, to $77.01 in Thursday's trading.
