Aristocrat Leisure Acquisition, Entitlement and Shortfall

Aristocrat Leisure aims to raise around US$1bn (A$1.3bn) via a renounceable entitlement offer to partly fund its acquisition of Playtech plc for a total enterprise value of around A$5bn.

Past deals undertaken by Aristocrat have generally done well and the stock has a good track record. In this note, we will talk about the deal dynamics and run the deal through our ECM framework.
