If you are hunting for big returns for your investment portfolio, then look no further than the ASX 200 shares in this article.

That's because analysts are tipping them to rise by 25%+ over the next 12 months. Here's what you need to know about them:

Flight Centre Travel Group Ltd (ASX: FLT)

The team at Macquarie thinks that this travel agent giant is a cheap ASX 200 share to buy right now.

While it wasn't blown away with its full year results in FY 2025, it believes its valuation is attractive and expects improvements in macro conditions to drive strong performances from its key segments. It said:

Outperform. While profit disappointed, both segments delivered solid TTV growth which should accelerate if macro conditions are more supportive. Valuation is attractive, and we see material upside to the current share price over a 12m view.

Macquarie has an outperform rating and $16.55 price target on Flight Centre's shares. Based on its current share price of $13.03, this implies potential upside of 27% for investors over the next 12 months.

In addition, it is forecasting a fully franked dividend yield of 3% in FY 2026, which boosts the total potential return to 30%.

Telix Pharmaceuticals Ltd (ASX: TLX)

Analysts at Bell Potter think that big returns could be coming for patient investors with this beaten down radiopharmaceuticals company's shares.

Although it concedes that this year has been tough for approvals (most recently the denial of Zircaix by the US FDA), it remains very positive on its longer term outlook and appears to see the recent share price weakness as a buying opportunity. It said:

The previous forecast included modest revenues from Zircaix in FY26 ($31m) which is now stripped out and EBITDA is reduced by $13m. The company does not plan to curtail any R&D spend at this point as it remains well capitalised and we expect will continue to generate cash from operations. This is the second CRL for TLX this calendar year. The delay to revenues and knock on effect to the cost of capital (risk) and valuation are material, accordingly our TP is reduced.

Bell Potter has put a buy rating and $23.00 price target on the ASX 200 share. Based on its current share price of $14.60, this suggests that upside of almost 60% is possible for investors between now and this time next year.
