Transurban Group (ASX:TCL) Has Announced That It Will Be Increasing Its Dividend To A$0.33
Transurban Group (ASX:TCL) has announced that it will be increasing its dividend from last year's comparable payment on the 22nd of August to A$0.33. This will take the dividend yield to an attractive 4.3%, providing a nice boost to shareholder returns.
This technology could replace computers: discover the 20 stocks are working to make quantum computing a reality.
A big dividend yield for a few years doesn't mean much if it can't be sustained. Based on the last payment, the company wasn't making enough to cover what it was paying to shareholders. This situation certainly isn't ideal, and could place significant strain on the balance sheet if it continues.
EPS is forecast to rise very quickly over the next 12 months. If recent patterns in the dividend continues, we would start to get a bit worried, with the payout ratio possibly reaching 251%.
Check out our latest analysis for Transurban Group
The company has a long dividend track record, but it doesn't look great with cuts in the past. Since 2015, the dividend has gone from A$0.36 total annually to A$0.62. This implies that the company grew its distributions at a yearly rate of about 5.6% over that duration. We have seen cuts in the past, so while the growth looks promising we would be a little bit cautious about its track record.
With a relatively unstable dividend, it's even more important to evaluate if earnings per share is growing, which could point to a growing dividend in the future. Transurban Group's EPS has fallen by approximately 14% per year during the past five years. A sharp decline in earnings per share is not great from from a dividend perspective. Even conservative payout ratios can come under pressure if earnings fall far enough. Over the next year, however, earnings are actually predicted to rise, but we would still be cautious until a track record of earnings growth can be built.
Overall, while the dividend being raised can be good, there are some concerns about its long term sustainability. The company isn't making enough to be paying as much as it is, and the other factors don't look particularly promising either. Overall, the dividend is not reliable enough to make this a good income stock.
Companies possessing a stable dividend policy will likely enjoy greater investor interest than those suffering from a more inconsistent approach. However, there are other things to consider for investors when analysing stock performance. Case in point: We've spotted 3 warning signs for Transurban Group (of which 2 are potentially serious!) you should know about.

Dateline Resources Reports Strong Progress in Colosseum Gold-REE Exploration Program in California
SAN BERNARDINO, CA / ACCESS Newswire Dateline Resources Limited (ASX:DTR)(OTCQB:DTREF), an Australian-based exploration company, is pleased to provide an update on its ongoing exploration program at the 100%-owned Colosseum Gold and Rare Earth Elements (REE) Project, located in the prolific Walker Lane Trend of San Bernardino County, California. This comprehensive program highlights Dateline's commitment to advancing the exploration of this dual-commodity asset through detailed geophysical and geochemical surveys. The magneto telluric (MT) geophysical survey is progressing steadily, with data collected from 119 of the planned 167 stations, representing approximately 70% completion. Designed to capture deep subsurface resistivity data along multiple lines spanning the project claims, the MT survey aims to image geological structures and alteration zones that could indicate buried breccia pipes or REE-bearing mineralized features. Preliminary 1D and 2D resistivity inversions from the first three completed survey lines have been generated and are under review by Dateline's technical team, showing resistivity contrasts that may correlate with key lithological contacts or structural features at depth. A full 3D inversion of the MT dataset will be conducted once all field data is collected, with results expected within 2-4 weeks of survey completion, enhancing the company's ability to pinpoint high-priority drill targets. In parallel, the geochemical sampling program is advancing, with 599 of the planned 1,207 samples, roughly 50%, collected as of today. Targeting high-priority areas such as newly identified felsite dykes west of historic pits and untested gravity-low anomalies to the east, these samples are being sent to the laboratory in batches for multi-element analysis, including a full suite of rare earth elements, to identify geochemical anomalies and pathfinder elements. Initial assay results from the first batch are expected in early July 2025, with comprehensive interpretation to follow once all samples are analyzed. Given current progress, terrain, and temperature conditions, the sampling campaign is anticipated to conclude in approximately 17-20 days. These exploration efforts are central to Dateline's 'stacked evidence' methodology, which integrates MT, geochemical, gravity, and potentially ground magnetic data to refine drill targets. The results will guide upcoming drilling campaigns, including a maiden REE-focused program, positioning Colosseum as a strategically significant project for both gold and critical minerals. Located less than 10 kilometers north of the world-class Mountain Pass REE mine, the Colosseum Project is well-positioned to capitalize on the growing global demand for rare earth elements, supported by strong U.S. government initiatives to bolster domestic production. This positions the project to contribute to America's strategic mineral supply chain, enhancing national security by reducing reliance on foreign sources of critical minerals. Managing Director Stephen Baghdadi commented, 'We are very encouraged by the field progress and initial data coming from Colosseum. In just a short period, our team has covered roughly half of the geochemical survey grid, and the MT survey is advancing on schedule. Each batch of samples sent to the lab and each line of geophysical data brings us a step closer to uncovering the next phase of Colosseum's potential. We look forward to receiving the assay results in July along with the MT survey's 3D models. Combining these new datasets will allow us to pinpoint the most prospective zones for both gold and rare earths with a high degree of confidence. This systematic approach is laying the groundwork for our upcoming drilling campaigns, including the maiden REE-focused drill program, to unlock value from this unique gold-REE project.' About Dateline Resources Limited Dateline Resources Limited (ASX: DTR, OTCQB: DTREF) is an Australian company focused on mining and exploration in North America. The Company owns 100% of the Colosseum Gold-REE Project in California. The Colosseum Gold Mine is located in the Walker Lane Trend in East San Bernardino County, California. On 6 June 2024, the Company announced to the ASX that the Colosseum Gold mine has a JORC-2012 compliant Mineral Resource estimate of 27.1Mt @ 1.26g/t Au for 1.1Moz.

On 23 May 2025, Dateline announced that updated economics for the Colosseum Gold Project generated an NPV 6.5 of US$550 million and an IRR of 61% using a gold price of US$2,900/oz. The Colosseum is located less than 10km north of the Mountain Rare Earth mine. Planning has commenced on drill testing the REE potential at Colosseum.
