Aristocrat Leisure Limited (ASX:ALL) has lifted its full year profit almost 17 per cent despite a slide in revenue.
 
The gaming machine manufacturer delivered a net profit of $107 million for the 12 months to September 30, up from $91.7 million for the same period last year.
 
Aristocrat says strong growth from its North American business and an increase in selling price contributed to the result.
 
Revenue fell 3.4 per cent to $808.7 million, due to fewer scheduled games releases in Japan.
 
Chief Executive Officer Jamie Odell says the company expected to grow its profitability further over the next 12 months.
