NEW YORK, Aug 3 (Reuters) - Slot maker WMS Industries Inc (WMS.N) reported a 31 percent jump in quarterly net income on Monday, boosted by higher revenue.
Fiscal fourth-quarter profit rose to $28.4 million, or 49 cents per share, from $21.6 million, or 36 cents per share, in the year-ago quarter.
Analysts, on average, had expected a profit of 47 cents per share, according to Reuters Estimates.
Revenue for the quarter rose 5.5 percent to $195.8 million, in line with the average forecast by Wall Street analysts.
The company said it expected to see fiscal 2010 revenue of about $760 million to $780 million, about 8 percent to 10 percent higher than 2009 levels, boosted by the expansion of its products into new markets.
