What it does
Light & Wonder makes casino gaming machines, table-game equipment such as card shufflers, and social and iGaming software, sold or leased to casino and lottery operators worldwide.

It is headquartered in Las Vegas.
Where it sits in the stack
Light & Wonder carries no seat in Closelooknet's index; it belongs to the gambling-equipment corner of our consumer-cyclical universe, spanning physical casino hardware and digital gaming software.
Who it is priced against
The diary places it alongside other gaming-equipment and digital-casino suppliers; the name the market most often compares it with is International Game Technology.
Why Closelooknet tracks it
It holds no seat in our index and carries no Closelooknet score yet, so the diary has not built coverage beyond noting its chart structure.
What the diary watches
Whether the iGaming and SciPlay digital segments keep growing relative to the physical Gaming segment, which would shift the balance of the business away from machines.
