In afternoon trade, the S&P/ASX 200 Index (ASX: XJO) has followed Wall Street's lead and is charging higher. At the time of writing, the benchmark index is up 0.9% to 8,875.3 points.
Four ASX shares that have failed to follow the market higher today are listed below. Here's why they are falling:
Light & Wonder Inc (ASX: LNW)
The Light & Wonder share price is down 9% to $101.82. Investors have been selling the gaming technology company's shares following the release of a mixed quarterly update. Light & Wonder reported a 2% increase in revenue to US$790 million for the quarter. In addition, consolidated adjusted EBITDA rose 5% to US$327 million. However, on a reported basis, net income fell 37% to US$52 million. This is largely due to approximately US$50 million in legal reserve contingencies associated with legacy legal matters.
Super Retail Group Ltd (ASX: SUL)
The Super Retail share price is down 3.5% to $11.27. This follows the release of a trading update from the retailer. Super Retail revealed that group like-for-like sales are currently up 0.4% during the second half. It also warned that it is being impacted by higher fuel prices and rising interest rates. It said: "Sales momentum across all four brands was adversely affected by the onset of the Middle East conflict. Inflationary pressures, including higher fuel prices and rising interest rates, together with concerns around fuel availability weighed on consumer sentiment, with the impact most pronounced over the key Easter trading period."
Tabcorp Holdings Ltd (ASX: TAH)
The Tabcorp share price is down 20% to 91.7 cents. This has been driven by news that the gambling company has become the subject of an AUSTRAC enforcement investigation. Tabcorp advised that this relates to anti-money laundering and counter-terrorism financing (AML/CTF) compliance. AUSTRAC has stated that the investigation is at an early stage and its approach will be determined once sufficient evidence has been collected and assessed. In response, Tabcorp's CEO, Gillon McLachlan, said: "I am committed to leading a compliant and safe company that understands its risk obligations. Uplifting our risk capability has been an ongoing part of the Company's transformation and we will work constructively with AUSTRAC through this process."
Woodside Energy Group Ltd (ASX: WDS)
The Woodside Energy share price is down 4% to $30.52. Investors have been selling Woodside and other ASX energy shares today after the US and Iran appeared to make progress with peace talks. This led to oil prices tumbling deep into the red overnight.
