Although the share price has been edging up a bit over the last several days (along with the market in general), Mr. Market doesn’t seem convinced that the earnings release slated for this afternoon will be anything to write home about. My understanding, and I could be wrong, is that this will be the first quarterly earnings report that includes H&R Block. My further understanding is that H&R Block is not necessarily a fast-growing company, but I’ve anticipated all along that it would boost this quarter’s earnings. (Yet another thing I could be wrong about).
Does anyone who still owns shares have any thoughts to share about this?
Hi Speedy,
This is the second year for H&R block, and I believe you are right, they get a boost in revenue in the quarter, but I believe it will be pretty much the same size as last year. Any growth will have to be organic. (But that’s just my understanding of it).
