Hansen Natural Corp.: The Anaheim distributor of sodas and juices posted a third-quarter profit of $351,000, or 4 cents a share. That compared to earnings of $185,000, or 2 cents a share, for the same period a year earlier. Sales rose 64% to $6.9 million from $4.2 million. For the year to date, the company reported a profit of $657,000, or 7 cents a share. That contrasted with a net loss of $9,870 for the same period a year earlier. Nine-month sales were $17.8 million, compared to $4.2 million for the first three quarters of 1992. The company acquired the Hanson product line in July, 1992, and had no revenue before that, so third-quarter and nine-month sales are the same.
