At a price-to-earnings ratio of 23.3, Light & Wonder is valued on a meaningful earnings multiple. Its PEG ratio of 0.53 adds a growth-related reference, but should be considered alongside the reported 2.30% revenue growth and 8.09% profit margin rather than treated as a standalone valuation signal. The figures describe different aspects of the business and do not establish whether the shares are attractive at any particular price.

- 45.18% from last price
The supplied target price is A$168.41, which is 45.18% above the last price of A$116.00. This is a secondary reference point rather than a guarantee of future performance. The broader business picture includes modest revenue growth, an 8.09% profit margin and a share price below its 50-day and 200-day moving averages.
Risks
Light & Wonder’s exposure to land-based casinos and digital gaming leaves it sensitive to shifts in gaming demand, operator investment and competition across its markets. Its business also operates in a regulated industry, where changes in rules can affect products and operations. Revenue growth of 2.30% and a profit margin of 8.09% provide context for assessing performance, but neither removes the potential for earnings to fluctuate. The share price is below both its 50-day and 200-day moving averages, and its A$96.79–A$193.00 52-week range reflects a substantial spread in recent trading levels.
