    MELBOURNE, Feb 11 (Reuters) - Australian shares rose 0.95 percent on Thursday as some better earnings results helped brighten the mood after a couple of days of punishing selling.

    The S&P/ASX 200 index (xjo) was 4,821.1 at the close of trade, up 45.42 points. The benchmark fell 1.3 percent on Wednesday.

    Helping on Thursday was a bumper profit report from hearing device maker Cochlear Ltd (COH) which surged 9.65 percent to an all-time high. It also raised forecasts for the year on the back of strong China sales and new U.S. customers.

    New Zealand's benchmark S&P/NZX 50 index (nz50) fell 0.54 percent or 32.47 points to finish the session at 5,987.020
