Aristocrat books FY loss, sees transformation

Company News

Aristocrat Leisure Limited (ASX:ALL) has reported a full year net loss but vowed the year ahead will be transformative for the company.  
 
The gaming solutions provider fell from a profit to a net loss of $16.4 million in the 2014 financial year, due to a number of impairments. 
 
Excluding significant items the company’s normalised profit after tax rose 10 per cent to $118 million, driven by strong operational delivery.  
 
Looking ahead the company believes fiscal 2015 will be transformative as it integrates its recent $1.3 billion acquisition of Video Gaming Technologies. 
 
An unfranked final dividend of 8 cents per share has been declared, taking the full year payout to 16 cents per share.
