In a market gripped by volatility and uncertainty, one thing remains as attractive as ever: dividend income.
Whether you're reinvesting for growth or building a passive income stream, high-quality ASX dividend shares can offer stability, cash flow, and the potential for capital gains.
But not all dividend stocks are created equal. The best income shares don't just pay — they grow. And they do so with consistent earnings, strong balance sheets, and smart capital allocation.
Here are two ASX dividend shares that are currently delivering on all fronts — and could be worth their weight in gold for income-focused investors according to analysts. They are as follows:
For those chasing big dividend yields, GQG Partners is hard to ignore. This global fund manager has been quietly ticking all the right boxes — robust earnings growth, rising funds under management, and one of the most attractive dividend profiles on the ASX right now.
Analysts at Goldman Sachs certainly think so. They have a buy rating and $3.00 price target on the ASX dividend share. While this implies major upside from current levels, the real headline is the income potential.
Goldman is forecasting dividends of 14 US cents per share in FY 2025 and then 16 US cents in FY 2026. At the current share price of $2.03 and the latest exchange rates, this equates to massive dividend yields of 11% and 12.6%, respectively.
You might not immediately associate youth fashion with dividend reliability, but Universal Store is breaking the mould. This fast-growing apparel retailer continues to gain market share while steadily expanding its national footprint.
Macquarie recently named the ASX dividend share as one of its top small-to-mid-cap picks, noting that "UNI continues to win market share, with ongoing store roll-out supporting network sales growth." It also highlights its "significant store roll-out runway" and sees the company as a strong dividend payer in the years ahead.
For example, the broker is forecasting fully franked dividends of 33.8 cents per share in FY 2025 and then 39.5 cents per share in FY 2026. Based on its current share price of $7.20, this equates to generous dividend yields of 4.7% and 5.5%, respectively.
Macquarie also sees plenty of upside for its shares. It has an outperform rating and $9.80 price target on them.
