Australian gaming powerhouse, Aristocrat Leisure, announced a substantial 23% revenue leap for the half-year concluding March 31st, 2022, hitting an impressive A$2.75 billion (US$1.92 billion). This remarkable upswing was driven by several elements, including the growth of their online gaming division, Pixel United, and a revival in their conventional slot machine operations as COVID-19 limitations relaxed. Profitability also experienced a significant uptick, with EBITDA soaring by 30% to reach A$970.3 million. The firm emphasized the positive reception of their latest gaming devices and the rising customer interest in crucial regions. Chief Executive Trevor Croker conveyed contentment with the company’s adaptability and strength in managing a challenging worldwide environment, underscoring their dedication to funding future expansion and creativity.
