S&P/ASX 200 Index (ASX: XJO) shares are up 0.4% to 8,719.6 points on Tuesday.
Let's check out some new ratings on these three ASX 200 shares (courtesy The Bull).
NextDC Ltd (ASX: NXT)
NextDC shares are $10.62 apiece, down 0.2% today.
Arthur Garipoli from Dolphin Partners has a buy rating on this ASX 200 tech share.
Garipoli said:
This data centre operator delivered total revenue of $496.5 million in fiscal year 2026, up 16 per cent on the prior corresponding period.
Underlying EBITDA of $248.8 million was up 15 per cent.
Underlying EBITDA is expected to range between $385 million and $410 million in fiscal year 2027.
NXT has invested heavily in infrastructure during the past three years.
The recent share price decline enables longer term investors to gain entry into a growth stock with structural tailwinds.
Cleanaway Waste Management Ltd (ASX: CWY)
Cleanaway Waste Management shares are $2.65, down 0.6% on Tuesday.
Steven Springford from Catapult Wealth has a hold rating on this ASX 200 industrials share.
He said:
This waste management company received a conditional, non-binding indicative proposal from EQT Infrastructure at $3.13 cash a share less the cash amount of any dividends. The proposal values Cleanaway at about $9.4 billion.
There's no certainty the proposal will proceed… In our view, investors should continue holding and potentially receive the proceeds, which may also include a special fully franked dividend.
Cleanaway released an update yesterday saying that EQT had confirmed nothing had arisen during its due diligence that would prevent it from going ahead with the purchase, and it does not intend to vary any terms of its proposal.
Cleanaway received EQT's conditional, non-binding indicative offer to buy 100% of its shares on 13 August.
Yesterday, Cleanaway said: "EQT is continuing to progress its confirmatory due diligence and the parties are working towards the negotiation and execution of an implementation deed."
New Hope Corporation Ltd (ASX: NHC)
The New Hope Corporation share price is $5.78, down 0.7% today.
Garipoli gives this ASX 200 coal share a sell recommendation.
He explained:
New Hope is a thermal coal producer.
Underlying EBITDA of $514.3 million in full year 2026 was down 32.8 per cent on the prior corresponding period.
Net profit after tax of $161 million fell 63.4 per cent. The profit result was below broker estimates.
Heightened costs contributed to the fall in profit.
The shares have performed well in calendar year 2026, so investors may want to consider pocketing some gains.
