Accent Group Ltd (ASX: AX1)
The first ASX dividend share that could be a buy is Accent Group. It is an Australian footwear retailer that owns popular brands such as HypeDC, Platypus, and The Athlete's Foot.
Bell Potter remains positive on the company. It highlights its market leadership, strategic growth initiatives, the ongoing expansion into apparel, and the rollout of the Sports Direct brand across Australia as reasons to buy.
It expects this to support the payout of fully franked dividends of 7.8 cents per share in FY 2026 and 9.2 cents per share in FY 2026. Based on the latest share price of $1.18, this equates to attractive dividend yields of 6.6% and 7.8%, respectively.
Bell Potter has a buy rating and $1.80 price target on its shares.
National Storage REIT (ASX: NSR)
National Storage could be another ASX dividend share to buy according to brokers.
It is the largest self-storage provider in Australia and New Zealand with over 250 locations providing tailored storage solutions to almost 100,000 residential and commercial customers.
UBS is recommending the company to clients. This is due partly to its resilience and attractive valuation. In addition, it is expecting some good dividend yields in the near term.
The broker is forecasting payouts of 12 cents per share in FY 2026 and FY 2027. Based on its current share price of $2.27, this would mean dividend yields of 5.3% for both years.
UBS has a buy rating and $2.57 price target on its shares.
Transurban Group (ASX: TCL)
Finally, Transurban could be an ASX dividend share to buy.
It operates a network of toll roads across Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, and North America. This includes CityLink in Melbourne, the Cross City Tunnel in Sydney, and Clem7 in Brisbane.
The team at Citi is positive on the company and believes it is positioned to increase its dividends to 69.5 cents per share in FY 2026 and then 73.7 cents per share in FY 2027. Based on its current share price of $15.06, this would mean dividend yields of 4.6% and 4.9%, respectively.
Citi currently has a buy rating and $16.10 price target on the ASX dividend share.
