See the top five best winners of the ASX200 for the month of June!
Whether you spent June hunting down the best EOFY deals or having a timely mid-year crisis, we’ve now officially crossed over to the second half of 2025.
Last month the ASX200 was briefly rattled by the Israel-Iran conflict but bounced back upon news of the ceasefire. The index ended the month in the green with a1.4% increase from the previous month and closing at 8542.27 points.
Let’s take a look at the five best-performing ASX stocks in June 2025:
If you’ve gone shopping in an Australian retail store, you’ve probably seen Zip at the checkout. Zip Co is one of the OG fintech companies from Australia that provide ‘Buy Now Pay Later’ services without the traditional credit card.
Zip was the star of the ASX 200 in June, with its share price zooming 55%higher. This buy now, pay later biz gave investors a boost in confidence by raising its guidance for cash earnings before tax and depreciation (EBTDA) to at least $160 million for FY25,up from its previous forecast of $153 million.
Brickworks is a major player in Aussie construction, manufacturing all sorts of building materials, and they also hold a chunky stake in investment giant Soul Patts (ASX: SOL). In June, Brickworks announced it’s teaming up with its long-time investment partner in a major merger move. The plan? To roll both companies into a new entity called TopCo, with Brickworks shareholders scoring0.82 TopCo shares for every BKW share they hold.
At the time of the announcement, that deal valued Brickworks shares at a 10.1%premium ($30.28), but thanks to a lift in Soul Patts’ share price, the deal’s worth even more now. The market seemed pretty on board - pushing Brickworks shares 25% higher in June.
Collins Foods is the company behind a bunch of your fast-food favourites (think KFC, Taco Bell, and more). In June, its share price served up a tasty 20% gain after investors got a look at the company’s full-year FY25 results. While sales rose a modest2.1% to $1.52 billion, profits took a dip, underlying net profit after tax fell14.8% to $51.1 million.
But that profit result was still well ahead of the $44.3 million analysts had pencilled in, which gave investors a reason to smile. Even better, Collins Foods is feeling confident about the year ahead, guiding for net profit grow thin the low to mid-teens for FY26.
Between outperforming expectations and dishing up positive guidance, investors decided this fast food stock was worth a second helping.
James Hardie is another big name in Aussie construction, known for making the fibre cement you see on homes everywhere. In June, its share price climbed 18%, as investors jumped in ahead of the company’s planned acquisition of US-based AZEK Company. The deal aims to boost James Hardie’s presence in the premium building products game, especially in the lucrative US market.
Plus, after a rough patch earlier in the year, James Hardie shares were looking a bit beaten down, and it seems bargain hunters couldn’t resist. With a potential deal in the pipeline and the stock bouncing off its lows, the market saw a solid mix of opportunity and upside.
Santos is one of Australia’s biggest energy players, powering homes and industries with natural gas and other resources. In June, its share price surged 16% after Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (ADNOC), with backing from ADQ and Carlyle, proposed a non-binding bid to buy the whole company for US$5.76 a share (about A$8.89 at the time).
That’s a potential ~$30 billion AUD deal, and investors definitely sat up and took notice. While it’s still early days (the offer’s non-binding for now), the market clearly liked the idea, giving Santos a strong boost for the month.
