In a Wednesday release, the group noted that it ‘anticipated that Light & Wonder will be admitted to the official list of the ASX, as an ASX Foreign Exempt Listing, on Thursday, May 18′.
However, the group notes that it is still subject to final approval by the ASX.

The group registered a return to profit in 1Q23, at $27 million, on the back of a 17 percent yearly growth in revenue, to $670 million, with AEBITDA totaling $249 million.
