Future Generation Australia dividend yield and Age Pension income, Digi Mart USA News (Australia): The Motley Fool Australia has highlighted Future Generation Australia Ltd (ASX: FGX) as a dividend stock worth considering for income investors. The publisher article describes the company as a listed investment company that invests in other shares, and states that it charges no management or performance fees.
According to the article, the company donates 1% of its net assets each year to youth-related charities. It also says Future Generation Australia has increased its dividend every year since it began paying shareholders in 2015, and expects to grow its annual dividend for FY26 by 5.6%.
The article reports that the company’s September 2026 monthly update showed net tangible assets (NTA) of $1.3352 before tax, and that the shares were trading at a 3% discount to that NTA at the time of writing. The company expects an FY26 dividend of 7.6 cents per share, which the article says equals a yield of 5.8% excluding franking credits and 8.3% including them.
The article also notes that the company invests in a portfolio of funds from 16 fund managers focused on ASX shares, giving diversified exposure and less weight in major blue-chip shares than the S&P/ASX All Ordinaries Accumulation Index. It compares the income with the maximum Age Pension of $1,237.70 per fortnight, or about $32,180 a year, and calculates that roughly 296,399 shares, including franking credits, would be needed to match that amount.
