Aristocrat Leisure Extends On-Market Share Buy-Back
- Aristocrat to extend its current on-market share buy-back program
- Additional A$750 million in shares to be bought back over 12 months
- Consistent strong cash flow generation allows mix of shareholder returns
Aristocrat Leisure Limited (ASX: ALL) has announced that it will extend its current on-market share buy-back program as part of its ongoing capital management strategy. With A$701.1 million of shares already bought back since February 2025, the Board has approved an increase in the on-market share buy-back program to allow up to a further A$750 million in shares to be bought back over an additional 12-month period ending 5 March 2027, bringing the total aggregate amount to A$1.5 billion. The on-market share buy-back program will continue to be conducted on an opportunistic basis, and Aristocrat reserves the right to vary, suspend or terminate the program at any time. Aristocrat's Chief Executive Officer, Trevor Croker, stated that with the previous A$750 million on-market share buy-back program nearing completion and the company's consistently strong cash flow generation, Aristocrat is able to continue to pursue a mix of returns to shareholders via dividends and share buy-backs while also investing in strategic acquisitions and organic growth initiatives.
