<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0"><FONT STYLE="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, Serif; font-size: 10pt"><B>KANSAS
CITY, Mo., August 11, 2025</B> – </FONT>H&R Block, Inc. (NYSE: HRB) announced today that Jeffrey J. Jones II has informed the
Board of Directors of his intention to retire as President and CEO of H&R Block on December 31, 2025, and will remain on the Board
until such time. He will continue as a Strategic Advisor at the Company through September 2026. He will be succeeded by Curtis Campbell,
currently Block’s President of Global Consumer Tax and Chief Product Officer, starting January 1, 2026.</P>
<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0"> </P>
<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">Since becoming CEO of Block in 2017, Jones has spearheaded innovation
to address changing consumer needs. The introduction of Upfront Transparent Pricing, as well as efforts under the Block Horizons strategy
with a focus on Small Business Services, Spruce mobile banking, and the omnichannel tax experience, including AI Tax Assist, have helped
to drive growth and relevance of the Block brand. In addition, under Jones’ leadership, the Company increased its quarterly dividend
by 70% and repurchased approximately 40% of its shares outstanding, returning over $4.0 billion in capital to shareholders. During
his tenure, the Company’s stock price increased 123% and its market capitalization has grown from $5.5 billion to $7.4 billion.</P>
<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0"> </P>
<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">“On behalf of the Board, I’d like to thank Jeff for his
leadership in modernizing the Company’s culture and offerings and creating significant shareholder value over the last eight years,”
said Board Chair Richard A. Johnson. “There’s no question he leaves the Company well-positioned for the future.”</P>
<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0"> </P>
<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">“Leading H&R Block over the last eight years has been the
honor of a lifetime,” said Jones. “With bold bets to drive growth, the creation of an extraordinary culture and more recently
by embracing the potential of AI to augment the human help for which we are known, we have elevated the brand’s relevance and created
significant shareholder value.” </P>
<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0"> </P>
<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">Beyond his customer-focused initiatives, Jones launched highly successful
community impact programs including Make Every Block Better, Fund Her Future, and A Fair Shot, all of which have bolstered the Company’s
commitment to building connections among neighbors and supporting small business owners. Jones indicated that he is proud of the Company’s
high-performing connected culture and record-high associate engagement, which has led to Block’s regular recognition on lists of
best places to work and was featured in the 2024 Harvard Business School case study: “<I>Driving Transformation - Jeff Jones
at H&R Block</I>”.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">Campbell’s selection follows a comprehensive succession-planning
process. His appointment to succeed Jones as President and Chief Executive Officer, effective January 1, 2026, was unanimously supported
by H&R Block’s Board of Directors.</P>
<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0"> </P>
<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">“I am thrilled to pass the baton to Curtis, who joined Block
in May 2024. He has deep tax industry expertise and is a tremendous fit for Block’s culture. Curtis is uniquely positioned
to continue driving our transformation and sustainable revenue growth” said Jones.</P>
<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0"> </P>
<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">Johnson added: “This transition reflects the Board’s ongoing
commitment to a rigorous, succession planning process focused on identifying the right leader for H&R Block’s next chapter,
and it is a strong testament to our leadership team’s strength and capabilities that we have the right candidate in Curtis. We have
the utmost confidence in him as he steps into the President and CEO role, and we look forward to working alongside him to deliver continued
results and value for our customers, employees, and shareholders.”</P>
<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0"> </P>
<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">Jones and Campbell will work closely to orchestrate a smooth leadership
transition until January 1, 2026, when Campbell will assume the role of President and Chief Executive Officer and will join the Board
as a director. Mr. Jones will continue to assist in the transition as a Strategic Advisor at the company until September 2026.</P>
<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0"> </P>
<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">“I am honored to be chosen to lead this iconic brand and company,
which I have deeply admired and respected for many years,” Campbell said. “Jeff’s vision and leadership transformed
H&R Block into the remarkable company it is today, and his legacy will be felt for years to come. I am excited to lead our amazing
team as we enter our next phase of growth and continue to deliver on our purpose: To provide help and inspire confidence in our clients

financial items, descriptions of management’s plans or objectives for future operations, products or services, anticipated effects
