There are not many S&P/ASX 300 Index (ASX: XKO) shares that could provide shareholders with a dividend yield of more than 9%. oOh!Media Ltd (ASX: OML) is one of those companies that may have a very promising future ahead for passive income investors.
I'd imagine there are very few of those high-yield ASX 300 shares that are expected to deliver earnings growth of more than 33% between FY26 and FY28, which is what analysts are predicting.
oOh!Media describes itself as a leading out-of-home media company that helps advertisers, landlords, leaseholders, community organisations, local councils, and governments reach large and diverse public audiences.
It has an extensive network of digital and static locations across Australia and New Zealand, including roadside locations, retail centres, airports, train stations, bus stops, office towers, and universities.
oOh!Media decided to deliver investors a large dividend per share of 6.25 cents in FY25. The final dividend of 4 cents per share represented a year-over-year increase of 14%.
The business said that its full-year dividend payout ratio was 53% of underlying adjusted net profit.
The forecast on Commsec suggests the business could deliver pleasing growth in FY26 (and beyond). In the 2026 financial year, it's projected to increase its payout to 6.3 cents. The annual payment could then rise to 7.4 cents per share in FY27 and 8.1 cents per share in FY28.
Following the 35% decline of the oOh!Media share price in the last six months, the potential FY26 payout now translates into a grossed-up dividend yield of 9.4%, including franking credits, at the time of writing.
That shows the business could provide significant passive income in the next year.
There may well be a bit more competition at the moment, but the ASX 300 share operates in a growing sector, which alone could help the business deliver rising profits in the coming years. Scale has its advantages in an industry like this, and oOh!Media is one of the biggest in the sector.
A few weeks ago, when the company gave its FY25 results during the reporting season, it revealed some positive commentary.
It said that it continued to see growth in the 2026 calendar year, with first-quarter media revenue "pacing up 7% in Australia".
oOH!Media expects that out-of-home will continue to take revenue market share from other media sectors.
The ASX 300 share also noted that 2026 capital expenditure will be between $55 million and $65 million, largely funding new advertising assets.
The forecast on CommSec suggests the business is trading at 8x FY26's estimated earnings. Earnings per share (EPS) are projected to rise 34% over two years to 15.5 cents by FY28, which would mean it's valued at just 6x FY28's estimated earnings.
In other words, it seems really cheap, and I think it just needs to deliver a bit of earnings growth to justify a significantly higher share price.
