SYMBOL LOOKUP

The organic- and natural-food retailer recorded 6 cents per share in integration costs, due to the purchase of Wild Oats.

Meanwhile, color measurement technology company X-Rite Inc.'s chief financial officer left the company, after less than three months on the job. Shares rose sharply in Tuesday aftermarket trading.

Also, IAC/InterActiveCorp and Liberty Media Corp. have resolved a legal skirmish over plans by IAC to split into several parts. Liberty will drop an appeal it filed.

In March, a Delaware judge sided with IAC head Barry Diller on breakup plans. Liberty had been arguing with IAC for months over the breakups.
