EARNINGS ROUNDUP / INGRAM MICRO

Technology products distributor Ingram Micro Inc. swung to a fourth-quarter loss because of an impairment charge and weakening economic conditions.

Revenue slipped to $8.68 billion from $10 billion. Ingram Micro said the sales drop was attributable in part to weaker foreign currencies.

Ingram Micro shares rose 4 cents to $12.33.
