With earnings season now over, brokers have updated their ratings on hundreds of S&P/ASX 200 Index (ASX: XJO) shares.

Let’s take a look at three new ratings from experts this week (courtesy The Bull).

Greatland Resources Ltd (ASX: GGP)

The Greatland Resources share price rose 19.1% over the August earnings season, and is up 94% over 12 months. 

Jonathan Tacadena from MPC Markets has a buy rating on this ASX 200 gold share. 

Tacadena said:

GGP is a gold and copper producer. The company produced 329,000 ounces of gold in full year 2026, comfortably beating guidance.

All in sustaining costs were also below guidance. It held cash of $1.289 billion at June 30 and had no debt.

It has full upside exposure to the gold price via put options.

A reserve upgrade at the Telfer mine in Western Australia is also encouraging. The company is enjoying favourable momentum.

The gold price has increased 9% over the past month and 3% in the calendar year to date.

Origin Energy Ltd (ASX: ORG)

The Origin Energy share price increased 8% during August, and is down 9% over 12 months. 

Remo Greco from Sanlam Private Wealth has a hold rating on this ASX 200 utilities share. 

Greco said: 

This major electricity retailer posted a statutory profit of $1.574 billion in full year 2026, up from $1.481 billion in the prior corresponding period.

Adjusted free cash flow increased by $867 million to $2.074 billion, driven by strong cash flow from energy markets and Australia Pacific LNG.

The company is supported by a strong balance sheet, enabling it to deliver consistent returns to share holders.

The company was recently trading on an appealing dividend yield above 5 per cent.

PEXA Group Ltd (ASX: PXA)

The PEXA share price fell 1.5% during earnings season, and is down 53% over 12 months. 

Tacadena has a sell call on this ASX 200 real estate share following PEXA’s FY26 report. 

He explained: 

PEXA operates a leading digital property platform and settles most transactions in Australia. It also operates in the UK.

A concern is a weaker housing market in Australia impacting PXA’s performance moving forward.

In Australia, a draft report proposes about a 20 per cent reduction in PXA’s regulated revenue requirement via reductions to certain transfer transaction fees over a year.

The independent Pricing and Regulatory Tribunal (IPART) in New South Wales is reviewing electronic lodgement network operator (ELNO) service fees. PEXA has submitted formal objections to the IPART draft proposal.

The shares have fallen significantly since March and still remain under pressure.
