As for dividends, the broker is forecasting partially franked dividends of 17.8 cents per share in FY 2024 and then 24.3 cents per share in FY 2025. Based on the latest Aurizon share price of $3.91, this will mean yields of 4.5% and 6.2%, respectively.

The broker has a buy rating and $3.40 price target on its shares.

As well as decent upside, Goldman expects attractive yields from Orora’s shares. The broker has pencilled in dividends per share of 13 cents in FY 2024 and 14 cents in FY 2025. Based on the current Orora share price of $2.65, this will mean yields of 4.9% and 5.3%, respectively.

Stockland Corporation Ltd (ASX: SGP)

Another ASX 200 dividend share that could be a buy is Stockland.

Stockland is a leading residential developer with a focus on delivering a range of masterplanned communities and medium density housing in growth areas across the country.
