HRB Dividend Type Payments
 
Although HRB has no upcoming (meaning, Board-approved and announced) dividends, you can sell covered calls on H&R Block, Inc. to create 12 extra dividend type payments per year to boost its yield. Let's look at some recent prices (last updated Mon 4:16 PM ET):

HRB Dividend-Like Income Using Covered Calls
With HRB at 49.43, here's a table showing how big the annual "dividend" (i.e. total annual call premium received) would need to be to attain 3%, 5%, and 10% annual yields. Also shown is the equivalent number of cents/day necessary to achieve each yield:
| Annual Yield | Annual Premium | Cents/Day | 
|---|---|---|
| 3% | 1.48 | 0.4 | 
| 5% | 2.47 | 0.7 | 
| 10% | 4.94 | 1.4 | 
So now we need to find out of the money covered calls that pay at least the prescribed cents/day amount of time premium. That will generate income and, because they are out of the money, leave room for some upside potential on the stock. Here are some examples:
