NEW YORK (AP) _ Imax Corp., a maker of large-screen movie systems, said Monday its fiscal first-quarter loss widened on increased expenses.

DALLAS (AP) _ Petroleum refiner Holly Corp. said Monday first-quarter earnings tumbled 87 percent, as soaring crude oil prices squeezed margins.

MEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP) _ Biopharmaceutical company GTx Inc. said Monday its first-quarter loss widened due to higher research and development expenses and administrative costs.

NEW YORK (AP) _ Orbotech Ltd., which makes testing equipment used to make printed circuit boards and flat-panel displays, said Monday first-quarter profit fell 34 percent as rising costs and expenses outweighed higher revenue.
