SYMBOL LOOKUP

LOS ANGELES (AP)--KB Home said Friday its third-quarter loss quadrupled from a year-ago period which was helped by hefty gains on the homebuilder's now-discontinued French operations. Results missed Wall Street expectations as cost-cutting measures failed to offset excessive inventories and lower revenue.

CLEVELAND (AP)--American Greetings Corp. on Friday said second-quarter profit dropped 73 percent as higher costs crimped margins as the greeting card company invested in products to drive sales growth.

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP)--Contract electronics manufacturer Jabil Circuit Inc. Friday said its net income rose nearly fivefold in the latest quarter compared with a year ago, when results were held back by restructuring and impairment charges.
