Exhibit 99.1

For Immediate Release: February 3, 2026

— Reaffirms Full Year Outlook —

KANSAS CITY, Mo. - H&R Block, Inc. (NYSE: HRB) (the "Company") today released financial results1 for its fiscal 2026 second quarter ended December 31, 2025.

"Across the business, we've made tangible improvements this season, whether receiving assistance from a tax professional or filing using our award-winning online tax product," said Curtis Campbell, president and chief executive officer. "We are elevating the value we deliver through expert‑led, technology‑enabled experiences that are increasingly supported by thoughtful AI integration. In a year of heightened uncertainty for many filers, our client‑first strategy and disciplined execution keep us focused on durable growth and long‑term value."

"We delivered double‑digit revenue growth in the quarter and reaffirmed our full‑year outlook, reflecting the strength of our year-to-date performance," said Tiffany Mason, chief financial officer. "The performance across Assisted, DIY, and Wave demonstrates solid execution, and our financial fundamentals and commitment to disciplined capital allocation position us to deliver meaningful long‑term value."

The Company reminds readers that its business is highly seasonal, and second quarter results consistently reflect this pattern. Historically, this period contributes modestly to annual revenue and typically generates a net loss.

For the second quarter, the Company delivered total revenue of $198.9 million, an increase of $19.8 million, or 11.1%, versus the prior year. The increase was primarily the result of higher volume and net average charge (NAC) in the assisted category, strong growth in Wave subscription revenue and payments volume, and increased DIY software sales.

Total operating expenses of $497.7 million increased by $25.4 million, or 5.4%, as expected, versus the prior year. The increase was primarily due to higher field wages as a result of higher assisted revenue and increased consulting costs.

Net loss from continuing operations improved by $0.9 million, or 0.4%, to ($241.6) million.

Loss per share from continuing operations2 increased 6.7% to ($1.91), and adjusted loss per share from continuing operations2 increased 6.4% to ($1.84), due to fewer shares outstanding as a result of share repurchases, partially offset by an improved net loss.

The Company reported the following related to its capital structure:

•Year to date, the Company has returned $507.7 million to shareholders in the form of dividends and share repurchases.

•The Company has approximately $700 million remaining on its $1.5 billion share repurchase program.

The Company continues to expect:

•Revenue to be in the range of $3.875 to $3.895 billion.

•EBITDA3 to be in the range of $1.015 to $1.035 billion.

•Effective tax rate to be approximately 25%.

•Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share3 to be in the range of $4.85 to $5.00.

Forward-looking statements provide management's current expectations or predictions of future conditions, events or results. All statements that address operating performance, events or developments that we expect or anticipate will occur in the future are forward-looking statements. They may include estimates of revenues, client trajectory, income, effective tax rate, earnings per share, cost savings, capital expenditures, dividends, share repurchases, liquidity, capital structure, market share, industry volumes or other financial items, descriptions of management’s plans or objectives for future operations, products or services, or descriptions of assumptions underlying any of the above. They may also include the expected impact of external events beyond the Company’s control, such as outbreaks of infectious disease, severe weather events, natural or manmade disasters, or changes in the regulatory environment in which we operate. All forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made and reflect the Company's good faith beliefs, assumptions and expectations, but they are not guarantees of future performance or events. Furthermore, the Company disclaims any obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement to reflect changes in underlying assumptions, factors, or expectations, new information, data or methods, future events or other changes, except as required by law. By their nature, forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those suggested by the forward-looking statements. Factors that might cause such differences include, but are not limited to a variety of economic, competitive and regulatory factors, many of which are beyond the Company's control, that are described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the most recently completed fiscal year in the section entitled "Risk Factors" and additional factors we may describe from time to time in other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. You may get such filings for free at our website at https://investors.hrblock.com. In addition, factors that may cause the Company’s actual estimated effective tax rate to differ from estimates include the Company’s actual results from operations compared to current estimates, future discrete items, changes in interpretations and assumptions the Company has made, future actions of the Company, or increases in applicable tax rates in jurisdictions where the Company operates. You should understand that it is not possible to predict or identify all such factors and, consequently, you should not consider any such list to be a complete set of all potential risks or uncertainties.

(1)Tax effect of adjustments is the difference between the tax provision calculated on a GAAP basis and on an adjusted non-GAAP basis.

Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. Because these measures are not measures of financial performance under GAAP and are susceptible to varying calculations, they may not be comparable to similarly titled measures for other companies.

We consider our non-GAAP financial measures to be performance measures and a useful metric for management and investors to evaluate and compare the ongoing operating performance of our business. We make adjustments for certain non-GAAP financial measures related to amortization of intangibles from acquisitions and goodwill impairments. We may consider whether other significant items that arise in the future should be excluded from our non-GAAP financial measures.

We measure the performance of our business using a variety of metrics, including earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) from continuing operations, adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations, adjusted diluted earnings per share from continuing operations, and free cash flow. We also use EBITDA from continuing operations and pretax income from continuing operations, each subject to permitted adjustments, as performance metrics in incentive compensation calculations for our employees.
