Lower Profit, Dividends Remain Suspended

Despite the increased revenue, Ainsworth recorded just 5.9 million Australian dollars in profit after tax, 35 percent lower year-on-year. However, the company pointed out that the lower profit was due to currency effects and one-off items, without those factors it would have amounted to 18.8 million Australian dollars, which would have been 88 percent higher year-on-year.

Harald Neumann, the Chief Executive Officer of Ainsworth Game Technology, declared himself pleased with the results and hailed the company’s “continued progress” as improved earnings are expected in the future as well.

“I am confident that the investments we have made to fundamentally upgrade our technology, hardware and improve game performance is expected to deliver further improvement in our results,” Harald Neumann added.

In December 2022 the Australian company announced that it was going to keep dividend payments suspended for at least another year, after their payment was first stopped due to the negative impact of the novel coronavirus pandemic in 2020. The company also announced that it was going to focus on building cash reserves in order to fund its growth initiatives in 2023.
