Centuria Industrial REIT (ASX: CIP)

The first ASX dividend stock that could be a buy is Centuria Industrial.

It is an industrial property investment company with a portfolio of high-quality, fit-for-purpose industrial assets situated in key in-fill locations and close to key infrastructure.

The team at UBS continues to rate the company as a buy and has a $3.80 price target on its shares.

As for income, it is forecasting dividends per share of 16 cents in FY 2025 and then 17 cents in FY 2026. Based on the current Centuria Industrial share price of $2.82, this will mean dividend yields of 5.7% and 6%, respectively.

SRG Global Ltd (ASX: SRG)

Another ASX dividend stock for income investors to consider buying is SRG Global.

It is an engineering-led specialist construction, maintenance, and mining services group operating across the entire asset lifecycle.

Analysts at Bell Potter are positive on the company. They highlight that its "short-to-medium term outlook is reinforced by Government-stimulated construction activity." They also feel that a recent "update highlights the diversity of SRG's operating model, servicing clients in multiple industries and geographies, which should protect overall Group activity from underperforming sectors."

Bell Potter has a buy rating and $1.55 price target on its shares.

In respect to dividends, the broker is forecasting fully franked dividends of 5 cents in FY 2025 and then 6 cents in FY 2026. Based on its current share price of $1.30, this will mean dividend yields of 3.8% and 4.6%, respectively.

Universal Store Holdings Ltd (ASX: UNI)

A final ASX dividend stock that analysts are bullish on is Universal Store.

It is a youth fashion retailer operating the popular Universal Store, Perfect Stranger, and Thrills brands.

Analysts at Bell Potter are also very positive on the company, noting that they "prefer the name given the store roll-out & brand growth strategy, margin expansion via private label product penetration (currently ~46%) and strong earnings trajectory."

Bell Potter has a buy rating and $8.85 price target on its shares.

As for dividends, the broker is forecasting fully franked dividends per share of 31.4 cents in FY 2025 and then 36.8 cents in FY 2026. Based on the current Universal Store share price of $8.38, this will mean dividend yields of 3.75% and 4.4%, respectively.
