Telecommunications carrier Global Crossing said it swung to a small fourth-quarter profit on increased sales to internet and corporate networking customers, an Associated Press report said.
The company earned $1 million compared to a loss of $90 million in the 2006 quarter, the Associated Press report said.
The company, which has 54.6 million common shares outstanding, did not give a per-share breakdown of its earnings, the report said.
Sales rose 26% to $616 million from $488 million, topping Wall Street estimates, the report said.
Analysts polled by Thomson Financial expected sales of $608.3 million, it added.
Sales for the company's 'invest and grow' category, which includes corporate networking and internet carrier services, grew 44% to $504 million, the report said.
The company narrowed losses 5% for the 2007 fiscal year, also due to corporate network and internet carrier sales.

Sales rose to $2.26 billion from $1.8 billion.
