Rural Funds Group (ASX: RFF)
Bell Potter thinks that Rural Funds could be an ASX dividend stocks to buy.
It owns a diversified portfolio of Australian agricultural assets. From these 63 properties across five states, its strategy is to generate capital growth and income from developing and leasing agricultural assets.
The broker thinks its shares are significantly undervalued at current levels. It said:
Our Buy rating is unchanged. The -~35% discount to market NAV remain higher than average (~6% premium since listing) and likely reflects the proportion of assets that are underearning as operating farms. With a continued improvement in most counterparty profitability indicators in recent months (i.e. cattle, almond and macadamia nut prices), resilience in farming asset values and the progress made in creating headroom in funding lines to complete the macadamia development we see this as excessive.
As for income, Bell Potter expects dividends per share of 11.7 cents in both FY 2026 and FY 2027. Based on its current share price of $1.95, this would mean dividend yields of 6% for both years.
The broker currently has a buy rating and $2.45 price target on its shares, which implies potential upside of 25% for investors.
Universal Store Holdings Ltd (ASX: UNI)
Another ASX dividend stock that Bell Potter is positive on is Universal Store.
It is a youth fashion focused retailer behind the Universal Store, Thrills, and Perfect Stranger brands.
The broker also thinks that its shares are being undervalued at present. Especially given how well it is executing on its rollout strategy. It said:
Universal Store Holdings is a leading youth focused apparel, footwear and accessories retailer in Australia. UNI will continue to increase store numbers over the next few years, supporting earnings growth of 10% p.a.. Valuation looks attractive, trading on a forward P/E of ~16x. UNI is a quality small cap (ROE ~26%) that is executing on its rollout strategy.
Bell Potter expects this to underpin fully franked dividends of 37.3 cents in FY 2026 and then 41.4 cents in FY 2027. Based on its current share price of $8.65, this represents dividend yields of 4.3% and 4.8%, respectively.
The broker has a buy rating and $10.50 price target on its shares. This suggests that upside of 20%+ is possible from current levels.
