3 ASX dividend shares yielding 9%

These three ASX dividend shares offer investors regular income potential even though also pursuing business growth, operational improvements and long term value creation.

Nine Entertainment Co. Holdings Limited (ASX: NEC)

In January, NEC announced a series of transactions aimed at speeding up its shift toward a growth-focused media business. A key step was the acquisition of QMS Media, expanding Nine’s presence in sectors with strong growth and resilience. After the deal, growth assets represented about 60% of revenue and 70% of EBITDA, creating a more balanced portfolio.

QMS operates in Australia and New Zealand and is focused on premium metro markets. The outdoor advertising has nearly tripled in revenue since 2010 and QMS has been the fastest-growing operator in the sector. Around 96% of its Australian revenue comes from digital assets and more than 80% of media revenue is linked to leases extending beyond June 2030.

Nine also sees opportunities through AI in audience analysis, inventory management, content delivery, and business operations. The combination of Streaming & Broadcast, Publishing, and Outdoor creates a connected platform that reaches audiences from the sofa to the street.

IPH Limited (ASX: IPH)

on 19 February 2026, announced its half year results for the dated ended 31 December 2025. The revenue increased 6.5%, supported by stronger performance in Canada, acquisition contributions and the renewed growth in Asia. Statutory NPAT rose 10.5% to $41.2 million, while underlying EBITDA increased 6.6%.

The business continued to generate strong cash flow, achieving a cash conversion ratio of 101%. Around 58% of underlying EBITDA came from markets outside Australia and New Zealand, showing the benefit of its international operations. IPH also declared an interim dividend of 19.0 cents per share, up 11.8% from the previous corresponding period.

For FY26, IPH is focused on growing revenue and earnings in Canada and Asia. It is targeting more intellectual property filings from Western Europe, Japan, South Korea and China. IPH is also using AI to improve workflows, lower costs, increase efficiency and provide better service to clients.

GrainCorp Limited (ASX: GNC)

on 14 May 2026, announced its 1H26 results for the dated ended 31 March 2026. Underlying EBITDA was $136 million though NPAT came in at $5 million and underlying NPAT reached $33 million. Core cash stood at $163 million. The company declared a fully franked dividend of 14 cents per share and reaffirmed FY26 guidance for underlying EBITDA of $200–240 million and underlying NPAT of $20–50 million.

The result was affected by a difficult global grain market. High grain supply and lower prices reduced margins, limited grower selling activity and increased competition for available grain. Despite these conditions, GrainCorp continued to focus on cost control, capital discipline and portfolio optimisation, while its supply chain operated normally.

GrainCorp is expanding non-grain volumes through its port network, progressing upgrades in oil processing and animal nutrition, and advancing its business transformation program. It is also assessing additional canola crushing capacity to support renewable fuel supply chains.
