FINDLAY, Ohio (AP) _ Cooper Tire & Rubber Co. said Wednesday its first-quarter profit tumbled 92 percent as costs for rubber and other raw materials rose and North American consumers put off tire purchases.

HOUSTON (AP) _ Energy equipment company Powell Industries Inc. said Wednesday fiscal second-quarter profit more than doubled on strong demand for electrical power products.

ARLINGTON, Va. (AP) _ Interstate Hotels & Resorts Inc. said Wednesday it swung to a first-quarter loss as the year-ago benefited from a unit sale.

BALTIMORE (AP) _ Business advisory firm FTI Consulting Inc. said Wednesday its first-quarter profit more than doubled, surpassing Wall Street's expectations, as fallout from the subprime mortgage mess spurred strong revenue growth across all business segments.
