The Warnaco Group, the maker of Calvin Klein jeans and Olga bras, which exited bankruptcy protection last year, said yesterday that its fourth-quarter loss narrowed to $4.1 million. The company restated results lower for three quarters because of an accounting change. The net loss narrowed to 9 cents a share, from $59.5 million, or $1.12, a year earlier, Warnaco said.
