Tuesday January 13, 5:21 pm ET

Its shares fell to $17.85 on the Instinet electronic brokerage system from $19.65 at its Nasdaq close.

Adolor Corp. (NasdaqNM:ADLR - News) fell in after-hours trading on Tuesday after it said a late-stage clinical trial of its treatment for post-operative bowel obstruction failed to achieve the test's main goal.

The company said it still plans to seek U.S. regulatory approval for the drug, Entereg.

Adolor's shares fell to $18.75 on the Instinet electronic brokerage system from $21.78 at its Nasdaq close.

Aviation electronics maker Rockwell Collins Inc. (NYSE:COL - News) gained ground, however, after it raised its fiscal 2004 profit forecast, citing improved operating efficiency, growth in its government systems business, and higher commercial systems business aftermarket sales. It rose to $30.74 on Instinet from $29.97 at its New York Stock Exchange (News - Websites) close.

still awaiting LLTC earnings report due out here soon, looking for $23c eps , hitting 52wk high yesterday and down a buck or so from today's open

Linear Tech Earnings Preview (LLTC) 43.80 -1.15: Linear Technology reports its Q3 after the market close today, with Reuters Research consensus standing at $0.23 in EPS and $183.7 mln in sales. CSFB expects the co to beat consensus, and would watch for continued downtrend in average selling prices and growth in its high-end consumer business. Merrill Lynch expects co to report in-line with its guidance, with no upside to that number. The firm expects revenues from its power management business to drive most of the top line growth during the quarter, and thinks investors are over-focused on the lack of gross margin leverage, while missing the fact that tight cost control delivers plenty of leverage at the operating profit level.
