H-and-R Block share dividends

16%

Dividend payout ratio: 15.72% of net profits

Recently H-and-R Block has paid out, on average, around 15.72% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 3.88% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), H-and-R Block shareholders could enjoy a 3.88% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In H-and-R Block's case, that would currently equate to about $1.14 per share.

While H-and-R Block's payout ratio might seem low, this can signify that H-and-R Block is investing more in its future growth.

H-and-R Block's most recent dividend payout was on 6 July 2023. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 6 June 2023 (the "ex-dividend date").

Have H-and-R Block's shares ever split?

H-and-R Block's shares were split on a 2:1 basis on 23 August 2005. So if you had owned 1 share the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 2 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your H-and-R Block shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 50% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for H-and-R Block shares which in turn could have impacted H-and-R Block's share price.

H-and-R Block share price volatility

Over the last 12 months, H-and-R Block's shares have ranged in value from as little as $28.83 up to $47.7238. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta".

HRB.US volatility(beta: 0.68)Avg. volatility(beta: 1.00)LowHigh

Beta is a measure of a share's volatility in relation to the market. The market (NYSE average) beta is 1, while H-and-R Block's is 0.6784. This would suggest that H-and-R Block's shares are less volatile than average (for this exchange).
