United puts stock buyout on hold after earnings drop

United Telecommunications on Tuesday posted a 55.1 percent drop in second quarter earnings and indefinitely delayed buying GTE Corp. stake in its US Sprint division. Chairman William Esrey blamed high overhead and one time costs, signaling possible layoffs as the company reassesses the buyout and aims to cut costs amid weak results. The stock fell to 32.75 on the NYSE as US Sprint revenue rose 19 percent but incurred nonrecurring charges.
