At a Glance

Other earnings, excluding one-time gains or charges unless noted, include:

* Carnival Corp. said net income fell 4.5% in its fiscal third quarter to $396.2 million, or 67 cents a share, but beat estimates by 3 cents. Revenue rose 6% to $1.23 billion, helped by three new cruise ships added to Carnival’s 48-vessel fleet. The company said profit was hurt by continuing pressure on ticket prices and significantly higher fuel costs.

* ConAgra Inc. said profit jumped 44% in its fiscal first quarter to $146.1 million, or 30 cents a share, matching forecasts, on a 3% rise in sales to $6.8 billion. The food company, whose brands include Healthy Choice, Hunt’s and Orville Redenbacher popcorn, recently completed a cost-cutting program during which it shed many non-core businesses.

* Stride Rite Corp. said fiscal third-quarter net income fell 23% to $7.78 million, or 18 cents a share, as sales of its Keds and Tommy Hilfiger brand shoes fell and the company marked down prices. Stride Rite had warned last week that earnings would miss the 26-cent average estimate of analysts, who revised their forecast to 17 cents.
