ALL share price in focus
Founded by Len Ainsworth in 1953, Aristocrat Leisure is an Australian gambling machine operator that is headquartered in Sydney.
Currently, Aristocrat is the largest manufacturer of gambling machines in Australia and one of the world’s leading producers of slot machines. However, the company’s business extends beyond just physical machines; Aristocrat also develops online games, which have grown to contribute nearly half of its total revenue.
Aristocrat’s gaming machines can either be sold outright to venues or gaming operators or installed with a revenue-sharing model, where a portion of the earnings generated is paid back to Aristocrat on a recurring basis.
