Balances presented above as short-term are included in receivables, while the long-term portions are included in other noncurrent assets in the consolidated balance sheets.

LOANS TO FRANCHISEES – Franchisee loan balances consist of term loans made primarily to finance the purchase of franchises and revolving lines of credit primarily for the purpose of funding working capital needs. Loans with a principal balance more than 90 days past due or on non-accrual status were $3.5 million and $3.1 million as of September 30, 2025 and June 30, 2025, respectively.

H&R BLOCK'S INSTANT REFUND® – H&R Block's Instant Refund® amounts are generally received from the Canada Revenue Agency within 60 days of filing the client's return, with the remaining balance collectible from the client.

We review the credit quality of our Instant Refund receivables based on pools, which are segregated by the tax return year of origination, with older years being deemed more unlikely to be repaid. We establish an allowance for credit losses at an amount that we believe reflects the receivable at net realizable value. In December of each year, we charge-off the receivables and the related allowance to an amount we believe represents the net realizable value.

Balances and amounts on non-accrual status, classified as impaired, or more than 60 days past due, by tax return year of origination, as of September 30, 2025 are as follows:


			(in 000s)

Tax return year of origination	Balance		More Than 60 Days Past Due
2024	$	2,237	$	2,085
2023 and prior	657		657

	2,894		$	2,742
Allowance	(1,079)
Net balance	$	1,815

EMERALD ADVANCE® – We review the credit quality of our purchased participation interests in Emerald Advance® (EA) receivables based on pools, which are segregated by the fiscal year of origination, with older years being deemed more unlikely to be repaid. We establish an allowance for credit losses at an amount that we believe reflects the receivable at net realizable value. Typically, in December of each year, we charge-off the receivables and the related allowance for EAs to an amount we believe represents the net realizable value.

Balances and amounts on non-accrual status, classified as impaired, or more than 60 days past due, by fiscal year of origination, as of September 30, 2025 are as follows:


(in 000s)
Fiscal year of origination	Balance		Non-Accrual
