Aristocrat Leisure’s Lightning Link social-casino game outperformed the sector by 11% in August. That news was reported by Jefferies Equity Research analyst Kai Erman in a 4 September investor note.
The social-casino market “remains challenged,” Erman wrote, citing “various industry headwinds.” Light & Wonder’s SciPlay division was said to be flat in terms of revenue. Its Jackpot Party continued to improve its numbers sequentially but still lagged the sector by 14%.
Aristocrat’s Heart of Vegas — Casino Slots game was reported to be outperforming by 6%. Erman expected an additional, incremental boost for the company from its August release of NFL Super Bowl Slots.
Although SciPlay revenues slipped 2% quarter-to-quarter, there were signs of life. The 88 Fortunes Slot Casino Games offering leapt 62% while Quick Hit Slots — Vegas Casino hopped 10%.
