Elders Ltd (ASX: ELD)
The first ASX dividend stock that analysts rate as a buy is Elders. This agribusiness company provides rural and livestock services, agricultural inputs, and real estate services to Australia's farming sector.
While its earnings can fluctuate with seasonal conditions, Elders has built a diversified national footprint that helps smooth performance across cycles. This includes the recent acquisition of Delta Agribusiness, which provides greater exposure to key local retail markets as well as a leading agronomy and farm advisory team.
With respect to payouts, Macquarie believes the company is positioned to pay fully franked dividends of 36 cents per share in FY 2026 and then 37 cents per share in FY 2027. Based on its current share price of $7.37, this would mean dividend yields of 4.9% and 5%, respectively.
Macquarie currently has an outperform rating and $8.25 price target on its shares.
Harvey Norman Holdings Ltd (ASX: HVN)
The team at Bell Potter thinks that Harvey Norman could be an ASX dividend share to buy and it isn't hard to see why.
The retail giant benefits from a unique franchise model that generates robust cash flows and provides flexibility during challenging retail environments.
In addition to its core electronics and furniture operations, Harvey Norman owns a substantial property portfolio. This adds another layer of income stability and has supported generous dividend payments over time.
Bell Potter expects fully franked dividends per share of 30.9 cents in FY 2026 and 35.3 cents in FY 2027. Based on its current share price of $6.78, this represents dividend yields of 4.6% and 5.2%, respectively.
The broker has a buy rating and $8.30 price target on its shares,
Telstra Group Ltd (ASX: TLS)
Finally, Telstra Group could be a great option for Australian income investors.
As the country's largest telecommunications provider, it generates recurring revenue from mobile, broadband, and network services that customers rely on every day.
The company's scale, infrastructure ownership, and pricing power give it a strong competitive position, which has supported a growing stream of dividends in recent years.
Macquarie expects this to continue. It is forecasting fully franked dividends of 20 cents per share in FY 2026 and 21 cents per share in FY 2027. Based on its current share price of $4.85, this equates to dividend yields of approximately 4.1% and 4.3%, respectively.
The broker has an outperform rating and $5.04 price target on its shares.
