Dreamworld operator Ardent Leisure has posted a first-half loss of $83.6 million after its theme parks and 10-pin bowling centres were forced to shut during the pandemic.

Ardent on Thursday outlined a 48 per cent fall in revenue due to coronavirus restrictions affecting its Gold Coast theme parks Dreamworld and Whitewater World, and bowling centres in the US.

The after tax loss is for the 26 weeks to December 29.

Shareholders will not receive an interim dividend.

Shares were lower by 1.59 per cent to 62 cents at 1441 AEDT.
