Among the earnings stories for Wednesday, June 4, from AP Financial News:

MELVILLE, N.Y. (AP) _ Comtech Telecommunications Corp. on Wednesday said its third-quarter profit remained flat as higher costs outpaced double-digit revenue growth, but its results trumped Wall Street expectations.

DELAWARE, Ohio (AP) _ Greif Inc. said Wednesday its fiscal second-quarter profit soared as the industrial packaging company benefited from strong demand for its products.

HAMPSTEAD, Md. (AP) _ Retailer Jos. A. Bank Clothiers Inc. said Wednesday its first-quarter profit jumped 18 percent, helped by a big boost in sales at established stores.

JACKSON CENTER, Ohio (AP) _ Analysts expressed mixed views on the recreational vehicle sector Wednesday following Thor Industries Inc.'s announcement that its third-quarter profit fell 22 percent on declining RV sales, results that still managed to meet Wall Street's expectations.
