The drug maker earned 31 cents in the second quarter, reversing last year's 50-cent loss and beating views by 24 cents, amid strong sales of its Advicor and Niaspan cholesterol drugs. Kos expects '03 profit of $1.20-$1.40 vs. views for 75 cents.

Inamed gained 8.51 to 66.40, breaking out of a six-week consolidation on five times normal volume. Late Wednesday, the cosmetic surgery products maker topped second-quarter views by 11 cents with a 76-cent profit, a 41% jump from the prior year.

SafeNet added 2.85, or 8.9%, to 34.75 on double its usual turnover.
