Naperville-based Boston Chicken Inc. posted a fiscal fourth-quarter profit, after reporting a loss a year earlier, as total revenue rose more than fourfold. The nation’s largest rotisserie-chicken chain, which went public in November in one of 1993’s hottest initial public offerings, said it had net income of $1.38 million, or 8 cents a share, for the quarter ended Dec. 26, compared with a loss of $1.49 million, or 10 cents, a year earlier. Total revenue, which includes sales from company-owned restaurants and royalties from franchises, rose to $14.3 million from $3.25 million.
