Four All Ords ASX dividend shares are doing their share of the heavy lifting today.

During the Wednesday lunch hour, the All Ordinaries Index (ASX: XAO) is down 0.6%.

That's despite these four ASX dividend shares posting gains of up to 9% at the time of writing following their earnings results.

Here's what's spurring investor interest in these All Ords stocks.

Why these ASX dividend shares are rocketing today

The first All Ords stock going gangbusters on the heels of its half-year results is engineering and project management consultancy company Lycopodium Ltd (ASX: LYL).

The Lycopodium share price is up 8.9% in intraday trade at $13.29 a share. That sees the share price up a whopping 76% in 12 months.

Highlights for the six months include an 11% year on year increase in revenue to $178 million.

Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) increased by 35% from 1H FY 2023 to $44 million. And net profit after tax (NPAT) leapt 50% to $30 million. The company's cash holding went the other direction, down 27% to $69 million.

The ASX dividend share pleased passive income investors with a fully franked interim dividend of 37 cents per share.

If you want to bank that dividend, you'll need to own shares at market close on 22 March. Lycopodium trades ex-dividend on 25 March. Eligible investors can expect that payout on 4 April.

Which brings us to the second All Ords ASX dividend share soaring on its full-year 2023 results, Ventia Services Group Ltd (ASX: VNT).

Shares in the infrastructure maintenance services provider are up 8.5% today, trading for $3.65 apiece.

Among the FY 2023 highlights, the company reported a 9.8% year on year increase in revenue to $5.68 billion. EBITDA of $465 million was up 10.8% with an EBITDA margin of 8.2%.

Net profit after tax and amortisation (NPATA) increased 12.5% to $202 million.

And the ASX dividend share looks to have spurred All Ords investor interest with FY 2024 guidance forecasting 7% to 10% growth in NPATA.

As for that passive income, Venetia Services declared a final dividend of 9.41 cents per share, franked at 80%. The total dividend for FY 2023 of 17.72 cents per share is up 12.5% from FY 2022.

Venetia shares trade on a partly franked yield of 4.7%.

Two more All Ords dividend stocks soaring on results

Also soaring following the release of its half-year results is Lottery Corp Ltd (ASX: TLC), the company responsible for the OZ Lotto, Powerball, and Keno brands.

The Lottery Corp share price is up 3.4% on the back of those results, trading for $5.22 a share.

Among the highlights of the half year, the ASX dividend share reported "resilient" revenue of $1.89 billion, down about 2% year on year. EBITDA came in at $399 million, also down just over 2% from 1H FY 2023.

Commenting on the results sending the Lottery Corp share price higher today, CEO Sue van der Merwe said:

During the half, we reaped the benefits of the change we made to Oz Lotto in 2022 to increase the probability of bigger jackpots. The $90 million draw on Boxing Day was the biggest Oz Lotto jackpot in more than a decade.

The company also flagged ongoing initiatives to drive future growth, including its newly evolved Weekday Windfall game and a digitally enhanced retail membership program.

Lottery Corp declared a fully franked interim dividend of 8.0 cents per share. The stock trades on a fully franked yield of 2.7%.

Which brings us to the fourth ASX dividend share being rewarded on the back of its full-year results for 2023.

Namely employee management services provider Smartgroup Corporation Ltd (ASX: SIQ).

The Smartgroup share price is up 2.9% today at $9.88 a share.

Highlights from the full-year results that look to be spurring All Ords investor interest include a 12% year on year increase in revenue to $252 million.

Operating EBITDA of $100 million was up 7% from 2022, while NPATA increased by 3% to $63 million.

In what management noted was a "competitive environment" the ASX dividend share managed to increase its novated leasing and salary packaging customer numbers while securing "significant" new clients and renewing many existing ones.

On the passive income front, Smartgroup declared a final dividend of 16.0 cents per share and a special dividend of 16.0 cents per share, both fully franked. That brings total dividends for the year to 47.5 cents per share.

Smartgroup shares trade on a fully franked yield of 4.8%.
