What Wall Street Has Been Saying

🐂 Bullish Takeaways

• Barrington Research raised its H&R Block price target from US$50 to US$60 after Q4 results topped expectations and initial FY27 guidance came in ahead of its estimates and consensus.

• Stephens started coverage of H&R Block with an Equal Weight rating and a US$47 target. The firm points to recent estimate beats and guidance updates as support for a recovery in the stock's valuation multiple, even if the path of that recovery is still unclear.

🐻 Bearish Takeaways

• Goldman Sachs lifted its H&R Block target from US$29 to US$33 but kept a Sell rating. The firm highlights structural growth concerns, including limited room for further assisted tax share gains and slowing industry tax return growth.

• Goldman Sachs also flags ongoing pressure from DIY tax solutions and the risk that more capable AI enabled tax products could disrupt H&R Block's model over time, which in its view constrains how far the valuation can extend.
