H&R Block Inc. has split its stock 6 times since its initial public offering (IPO). The first stock split occurred on June 16, 1971 with the ratio of 2-for-1, meaning that for 1 share of HRB owned pre-split, shareholders then owned 2 shares. 5 more splits have been implemented since then. The most recent stock split took place on August 23, 2005 on a 2-for-1 basis.

These splits have increased HRB stock's liquidity and made it more appealing to a larger group of investors. However, it's important to remember that these actions only change the number of shares and the price per share with no impact on H&R Block Inc.'s total market capitalization.

The answer will depend on the decisions of the company's managers and market volatility. H&R Block Inc. has not made an official announcement regarding whether it will enact a stock split or reverse stock split, but it has a history of doing so when HRB stock prices become too high or too low for retail investors. Therefore, the ultimate decisions will certainly be made by H&R Block Inc.'s board of directors. Typically, no action is taken until its price per share reaches a specific threshold.
