Fourth-quarter revenue for the suburban Detroit-based electronics supplier advanced 1% to $816 million. Net income from continuing operations swung from a $68 million loss to a $31 million gain.
Full-year revenue slipped 3% to $3.2 billion, and net income dropped to $75 million from $2.3 billion in 2015. Net income from continuing operations in 2016 more than doubled to $161 million on record sales by its core electronics business.
