Despite a shaky ASX 200, four stocks—A2 Milk, Megaport, Helia Group, and Light & Wonder—soared in February 2025.
February arrived faster than you could remember your 2025 resolutions, and the ASX felt the new year whiplash too.
The benchmark ASX 200 index dropped 4.2% in February, finishing at 8,172 points - a rude awakening following January’s bold start.
But not all companies were in the trenches this month, let’s take a look at the four best-performing ASX stocks in February 2025:
A2 Milk produces a special dairy milk that contains only the A2 protein, which is allegedly easier to digest than regular dairy milk.
Despite the soaring popularity of plant based milks, A2 Milk still has a strong foothold (or should we say fridgehold) in Aussie homes - jumping 35% after the release of its half year results. In other big news, they also announced their first ever dividend! And that always makes investors happy!
Megaport is a global Network as a Service (NaaS) provider which is a fancy way of saying they help companies easily access major cloud services and data centers around the world.
If that didn’t make any sense to you, just know that Megaport’s half year results were stronger than your wifi connection and this led to a 30.5% bump in its share price.
If you’ve ever bought property in Australia then you might be familiar with Lenders Mortgage Insurance (LMI). It’s the extra fee you may need to pay if you want a taste of home ownership but have less than a 20% deposit.
With the RBA cutting rates last month and the Australian property market already seeing a small uptick, this is great news for Helia Group. As a result, it recorded a gain of 26% in February and declared a total dividend of 69 cents per share, payable on the 3rd of April 2025.
Another top performer last month was Light & Wonder, an American “gaming” company who provides gambling products and services globally. They became dual-listed on the ASX in May 2023, and supply slot machines to licensed venues in Australia whilst also owning popular gambling phone apps.
Shareholders were the ultimate winners, with share price gains of 22% after Light & Wonder reported a 10% increase in FY24 revenue, and a FY25 forecast that looked promising to investors.
