Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)
1. Basis of Presentation
---------------------
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements
have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles for interim financial information and
with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of
Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the
information and footnotes required by generally accepted
accounting principles for complete financial statements. In
the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of
normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair
presentation have been included. Operating results for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 1995, are not
necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for
the year ending December 31, 1995. For further information,
refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes
thereto for the year ended December 31, 1994, included in the
Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K (file number 0-9341).
2. Acquisition of San Diego Property
---------------------------------
On February 3, 1995, the Company purchased approximately 100
acres of real property located in San Diego, California, of
which approximately 35 acres will be used for the development
of a cemetery. In purchasing the property the Company
incurred a debt of $1,062,000. This debt carries an interest
rate of 9% per annum and will be paid in twelve monthly
installments of $5,000. Thereafter, equal monthly payments of
$10,000 will be made, however interest shall not accrue on any
part of the principal balance until February 3, 1996.
3. Acquisition of Greer-Wilson Funeral Home
----------------------------------------
On March 8, 1995, the Company was issued 97,800 shares of
common stock of Greer-Wilson Funeral Home, Inc. ("Greer-
Wilson"), representing 97.8% of the total issued and out-
standing shares of common stock of Greer-Wilson after the
issuance of such shares. In consideration for the purchase of
such shares, the Company agreed to contribute $430,000 to
Greer-Wilson for the payment of its accounts payable, or to
assume payment of the accounts payable, and to pay or
refinance Greer-Wilson's existing mortgage loan indebtedness;
and to pay the former President, Mr. Greer, and his wife
$6,000 per month over a ten year period for providing
consulting services. The Company also loaned the former
President and his wife the sum of $200,000 to be paid on March
8, 2005, together with interest thereon at the rate of seven
percent (7%) per annum. This obligation is collateralized by
a pledge of the remaining 2,200 shares of Greer-Wilson's
common stock that is currently owned by Mr. Greer. The
acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method.
Assets, liabilities, and operations of Greer-Wilson are
included in the consolidated financial statements of the
Company beginning April 1, 1995.
4. Line of Credit Arrangement
--------------------------
Under a Line of Credit Arrangement entered into in August
1995, the Company may borrow up to $10 million to fund
mortgage loans until sold to secondary investors. This
arrangement does not have a termination date but is reviewed
annually for renewal. At September 30, 1995, the Company had
approximately $4 million outstanding under this agreement.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF OPERATIONS
Results of Operations
Overview
- --------
The Company's operations over the last three years generally
reflect three trends or events which the Company expects to
continue: (i) increased attention to "niche" insurance
products, such as the Company's funeral plan policies, (ii)
decreased general and administrative costs as a percentage of
revenue through efforts to reduce operating costs and through
eliminating unnecessary duplication of costs at acquired
companies; and (iii) emphasis on high margin cemetery and
mortuary business.
The Company maintains a diversified investment portfolio
consisting of common stock, preferred stock, municipal bonds,
investment grade and non-investment grade bonds, mortgage
loans, short term and other securities and investments. The
Company's investment goals are to maintain safety and
liquidity, enhance principal values and achieve increased
rates of return consistent with regulatory restraints. The
Company's interest sensitive type products, primarily
annuities and interest sensitive whole life, compete with
other financial products such as bank certificates of deposit,
brokerage sponsored money market funds as well as competing
life insurance company products.

========== ======== ========= ========== ==========
The following management's discussion and analysis for the three months ended
September 30, 1995 and September 30, 1994, excludes the acquisition of
Capital Investors Life Insurance Company and Greer-Wilson Funeral Home.
Three Months Ended September 30, 1995 as Compared to Three
Months Ended September 30, 1994
Total revenues increased by $1,484,000 (35%), from $4,203,000
for the three months ended September 30, 1994 to
$5,687,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1995.
Contributing to this increase in total revenues was a $148,000
increase in net investment income and a $98,000 increase in
mortuary and cemetery sales, and a $1,614,000 increase in
mortgage fee income.
Net investment income increased by $148,000, from $1,027,000
for the third quarter of 1994 to $1,175,000 for the third
quarter of 1995. This increase was attributable to the
Company's emphasis on investing its cash and short-term
investments in higher-yielding long-term investments. Also,
the life insurance companies and the cemeteries and mortuaries
have participated in warehousing many of the mortgage loans
generated by the Company's mortgage company, Security National
Mortgage Company.
Realized gains on investment and other assets decreased by
$243,000, from a $294,000 gain for the third quarter of 1994
as compared to a $51,000 gain for the third quarter of 1995.
The 1994 amount included the results of the sale of 13.45
acres of land deemed not suitable for cemetery development at
Lake View Cemetery. On August 22, 1994, an agreement was
entered into wherein the land was sold to a development
company for $515,000. The net gain on the sale of the land,
after deducting the original cost of the land and related
fees, was approximately $278,000.
Mortuary and cemetery sales increased $98,000, from $1,466,000
for the third quarter 1994 to $1,564,000 for the third quarter
of 1995. This increase was primarily the result of a $187,000
increase in cemetery sales. There was an $89,000 decrease in
sales in the mortuary division in the third quarter of 1995
caused by a reduced case count for that period as compared to
the third quarter of 1994.
Mortgage fee income increased $1,614,000, from $93,000 for the
third quarter of 1994 to $1,707,000 for the third quarter of
1995. This increase was the result of lower interest rates
during the third quarter of 1995, which increased the
opportunity for refinancing and loan origination. In
addition, a strong economy and increased demand for housing in
the intermountain area had created increased activity for loan
originations.
Total benefits and expenses were $3,892,000 for the third
quarter of 1994, which was 93% of the total revenues of the
Company as compared to $5,208,000 or 92% of the total revenues
for the third quarter of 1995.
Death benefits, surrenders and other policy benefits and
increase in future policy benefits decreased in the aggregate
by $120,000, from $1,169,000 for the third quarter of 1994 to
$1,049,000 for the third quarter of 1995. These benefits are
in line with the actuarial assumptions and industry standards.
Amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs increased by
$253,000, from $101,000 for the third quarter of 1994 to
$354,000 for the third quarter of 1995. This increase was
primarily due to the maturing of the policies inforce.
General and administrative expenses increased by $1,174,000,
from $1,972,000 for the third quarter of 1994 to $3,146,000
for the third quarter of 1995. This increase was due to an
increase in commission expenses and salary expense and other
expenses. Commission expenses increased $853,000, from
$256,000 for the third quarter of 1994 to $1,109,000 for the
third quarter of 1995 as a result of the increased business
activity of Security National Mortgage Company and the
cemetery operations.
Salary expense increased $115,000, from $705,000 for the third
quarter of 1994 to $820,000 for the third quarter of 1995,
primarily due to the additional administrative personnel
needed at the corporate level to meet the needs of the newly
acquired companies of Capital Investors Life Insurance Company
and Greer-Wilson Funeral Home.
Other expenses increased $206,000, from $1,010,000 for the
third quarter of 1994 to $1,216,000 for the third quarter of
1995. This increase was the result of increased operating
expenses at Security National Mortgage Company. This increase
was partially off-set by the decrease in amortization expenses
arising from the 1989 acquisition of a funeral planning sales
agency. The acquisition expenses were capitalized and
amortized over a five-year period ending December 31, 1994.
Interest expenses increased $102,000, from $175,000 for the
third quarter of 1994 to $277,000 for the third quarter of
1995. This increase was primarily due to the interest on the
debt incurred as a result of the acquisitions of Capital
Investors Life Insurance Company and Greer-Wilson Funeral
Home, which were completed on December 21, 1994 and April 1,
1995, respectively.
Cost of mortuaries and cemeteries goods and services sold was
consistent with the products sold during the third quarter
1995.

=========== ========== ========= ========== ===========
The following management's discussion and analysis for the nine months ended
September 30, 1995 and September 30, 1994, excludes the acquisition of Capital
Investors Life Insurance Company and Greer-Wilson Funeral Home.
Nine Months
Ended September 30, 1995 as Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 1994.
Total revenues increased by $2,422,000 (19%), from $12,562,000
for the nine months ended September 30, 1994 to $14,984,000
for the nine months ended September 30, 1995. Contributing to
this increase in total revenues was a $520,000 increase in net
investment income, a $468,000 increase in mortuary and
cemetery sales, and a $2,021,000 increase in mortgage fee
income.
Net investment income increased by $520,000, from $2,913,000
for the nine months ended September 30, 1994 to $3,433,000 for
the nine months ended September 30, 1995. This increase was
attributed to the Company's emphasis in fiscal 1995 on
investing its cash and short-term investments in higher-
yielding long-term investments. Also, the life insurance
companies and the cemeteries and mortuaries participated in
warehousing many of the mortgage loans generated by Security
National Mortgage.
Realized gains on investments and other assets decreased by
$336,000, from $387,000 for the nine months ended September
30, 1994, to $51,000 for the nine months ended September 30,
1995. The 1994 amount included the results of the sale of
13.45 acres of land deemed not suitable for cemetery
development at Lake View Cemetery. On August 22, 1994, an
agreement was entered into wherein the land was sold to a
development company for $515,000. The net gain on the sale of
the land, after deducting the original cost of the land and
related fees was approximately $278,000. The remaining
decrease in realized gains on investments and other assets was
a result of fewer bond redemptions during the nine months
ended September 30, 1995.
Mortuary and cemetery sales increased by $468,000, from
$4,434,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1994, to
$4,902,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1995.
This increase was the result of a $69,000 increase in mortuary
sales and a $399,000 increase in cemetery sales for the nine
months ended September 30, 1995.
Mortgage fee income increased $2,021,000, from $880,000 for
the nine months ended September 30, 1994 to $2,901,000 for the
nine months ended September 30, 1995. This increase was a
result of lower interest rates during the nine months ended
September 30, 1995, which increased the opportunity for
refinancing and loan originations. In addition, a strong
economy and increased demand for housing in the intermountain
area had created increased activity for loan originations.
Total benefits and expenses were $12,009,000 for the nine
months ended September 30, 1994, which is 96% of the total
revenues of the Company, as compared to $13,942,000, or 93% of
the total revenues for the nine months September 30, 1995.
Death benefits, surrenders and other policy benefits and
increase in future policy benefits decreased by $67,000, from
$3,414,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1994, to
$3,347,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1995.
These benefits are in line with the actuarial assumption and
industry standards.
Amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs increased by
$168,000, from $558,000 for the nine months ended September
30, 1994, to $726,000 for the nine months ended September 30,
1995. This increase was primarily due to the maturing of the
policies in force.
General and administrative expenses increased by $1,561,000, from
$6,189,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1994
to $7,750,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1995.
This increase was primarily due to an increase in commission
and salary expenses off-set by a smaller decrease in other
expenses. Commission expenses increased $1,525,000, from
$908,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1994 to
$2,433,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1995, due
to increased business activity of Security National Mortgage
Company and the cemetery operations. Salary expense increased
$118,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1995, as
compared to the nine months ended September 30, 1994,
primarily due to the additional administrative personnel
required at the corporate level to meet the needs of the newly
acquired companies of Capital Investors Life Insurance Company
and Greer-Wilson Funeral Home.
Other expenses decreased $82,000, during the nine months ended
September 30, 1995. This decrease was primarily the result of
the decrease in amoritzation expenses arising from the 1989
acquisition of a funeral planning sales agency. The
acquisition expenses were capitalized and amortized over a
five year period ending December 31, 1994.
Interest expense increased by $215,000, from $524,000 for the
nine months ended September 30, 1994, to $739,000 for the nine
months ended September 30, 1995. This increase was primarily
due to interest on the debt incurred as a result of the
acquisitions of Capital Investors Life Insurance Company and
Greer Wilson Funeral Home, which were completed on December
21, 1994 and April 1, 1995, respectively.
Cost of mortuaries and cemeteries goods and services sold was
consistent with the products sold during the nine months ended
September 30, 1995.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------
The Company's life insurance subsidiaries and cemetery and
mortuary subsidiaries realize cash flow from premiums,
contract payments and sales on personal services rendered for
cemetery and mortuary business from interest and dividends on
invested assets, and from the proceeds from the maturity of
held-to-maturity investment, or sale of other investments.
The Company considers these sources of cash flow to be
adequate to fund future policyholder and cemetery and mortuary
liabilities which generally are long-term and adequate to pay
current policyholder claims, annuity payments, expenses on the
issuance of new policies and the maintenance of existing
policies.
The Company attempts to match the duration of invested assets
with its policyholder and cemetery and mortuary liabilities.
The Company may sell investments other than those held to
maturity in the portfolio to help in this timing however, to
date, that has not been necessary. The Company purchases
short-term investments on a temporary basis to meet the
expectations of short-term requirements of the Company's
products. The Company's investment philosophy is intended to
provide a rate of return which will persist during the
expected duration of policyholder and cemetery and mortuary
liabilities regardless of future interest rate movements.
The Company's investment policy is to invest predominately in
fixed maturity securities and warehouse mortgage loans on a
short-term basis before selling the loans to investors, in
accordance with the requirements and laws governing the life
insurance subsidiary. Bonds owned by the insurance subsidiary
amounted to $37,253,000, at amortized cost as of September 30,
1995. Generally all bonds owned by life insurance companies
are rated by the National Association of Insurance
Commissioners (NAIC). Under this rating system, there are six
categories used for rating bonds. At September 30, 1995,
4.39% ($1,639,000) and at September 30, 1994, 4.71% ($909,000)
of the Company's total investment in bonds were in rating
categories three through six which are considered
non-investment grade. Total invested assets of the Company is
$69,308,000 as of September 30, 1995.
The Company's interest sensitive type products, primarily
annuities and interest sensitive whole life, compete with
other financial products such as bank certificates of deposit,
brokerage sponsored money market funds as well as competing
life insurance company products. Based on preliminary
information, the Company plans to hold its fixed income
securities, including high-yield securities, in its portfolio
to maturity. Business conditions, however, may develop in the
future which may indicate a need for a higher level of
liquidity in the investment portfolio. In that event the
Company believes it could sell cash equivalents in investment
grade securities before liquidating high-yield securities.
Lapse rates measure the amount of insurance terminated during
a particular period. The Company's lapse rate for life
insurance in 1995 and 1994 was 8%. The Company's primary
needs for liquidity are for debt service, maintenance of
statutory capital and surplus for its life insurance
subsidiaries and administrative expenses and cost of cemetery
and mortuary services to be rendered.
On February 12, 1993, Security National Life Insurance Company
entered into a purchase and sale agreement for the Pinehill
Business Park located in Murray, Utah. The purchase price was
$2,150,000 with debt financing of $1,500,000 through a local
bank. As of September 30, 1995, about 95% of the available
space was occupied.
On July 31, 1993, the Company contributed assets of
approximately $268,000 to its new wholly-owned subsidiary,
Security National Mortgage Company. Security National
Mortgage Company operates in two principal markets:
refinancing of mortgage loans and origination of mortgage
loans. These loans are sold on the secondary market to
investors with servicing obligations released. Security
National Life Insurance Company intends to act as a warehouse
lender for the mortgage loans. By becoming a warehouse
lender, Security National Life Insurance Company can obtain a
long term interest rate on its assets without committing the
funds for a long period of time.
On January 10, 1994, the Company acquired Sunset Funeral Home,
Inc. ("Sunset"), which owns and operates a mortuary in
Phoenix, Arizona, known as Camelback Sunset Funeral Home. As
consideration for the purchase, the Company paid $140,000 in
cash, issued 25,000 shares of Class A Common Stock, assumed an
existing debt of $588,000, and entered into an agreement to
pay the seller the sum of $3,500 in monthly installments
during his lifetime up to a maximum of $560,000. In the event
of the death of the seller prior to the payment of $560,000,
the remaining unpaid balance of such amount would be paid to
his daughter.
On December 21, 1994, the Company purchased all of the
outstanding shares of common stock of Capital Investors Life
Insurance Company ("Capital Investors Life") from Suncoast
Financial Corporation ("Suncoast Financial"). As
consideration for the purchase of the shares, the Company paid
$5,231,000 in cash, issued 40,000 shares of its Class A Common
Stock, and entered into a profit sharing agreement providing
for 33-1/3% of the profits from new post-closing sales of
existing Capital Investors Life plans of insurance to be paid
as earned. An aggregate of $2,700,000 of the cash
consideration was borrowed by the Company from Key Bank,
Crossroads Office, Salt Lake City, Utah, and is payable by the
Company in accordance with the terms of a Promissory Note
dated December 16, 1994, bearing interest at one-half percent
per annum above the bank's prime rate, and payable in monthly
payments in the amount of $36,420, with the unpaid principal
balance, together with accrued interest and other charges, due
and payable on December 16, 1999. The remainder of the
purchase price came from the Company's internal funds.
On February 3, 1995, the Company purchased approximately 100
acres of real property (the "Property") located in San Diego,
California, approximately 35 acres of which will be used for
the development of a cemetery. The purchase price of the
property was $1,162,000, $100,000 of which was paid in cash
and the balance of $1,062,000, together with interest thereon
at the rate of nine percent (9%) per annum, will be paid in 12
monthly payments of $5,000, thereafter in equal monthly
payments of $10,000; however, interest shall not accrue on any
part of the principal balance until February 3, 1996, and a
principal payment of $100,000 is to be made 15 days after the
date the California Cemetery Board approves the Company's
application for Certificate of Authority, or February 3, 1996,
whichever occurs first.
The Company has invested and deferred approximately $2,172,000
in option fees and costs of various regulatory studies,
including environmental, water, and archaeological studies.
The Company has been given approval from the federal
government and the California Cemetery Board to operate a
cemetery. The development of the cemetery will be financed
internally as well as through a private offering. Initial
development of 35 acres to operate as a cemetery would cost
approximately $500,000.
On March 8, 1995, the Company was issued 97,800 shares of
common stock of Greer-Wilson Funeral Home, Inc. ("Greer-
Wilson"), representing 97.8% of the total issued and
outstanding shares of common stock of Greer-Wilson after the
issuance of such shares. In consideration for the purchase of
such shares, the Company agreed to contribute $430,000 to
Greer-Wilson for the payment of its accounts payable, or to
assume payment of the accounts payable, and to pay or
refinance Greer-Wilson's existing mortgage loan indebtedness;
and to pay the former President, Mr. Greer, and his wife
$6,000 per month over a ten year period for providing
consulting services. The Company also loaned the former
President and his wife the sum of $200,000 to be paid on March
8, 2005, together with interest thereon at the rate of seven
percent (7%) per annum. This obligation is collateralized by
a pledge of the remaining 2,200 shares of Greer-Wilson's
common stock that is currently owned by Mr. Greer.
At September 30, 1995, $9,526,956 of the Company's
consolidated stockholders' equity represents the statutory
stockholder's equity of the Company's insurance subsidiary
Security National Life and Capital Investors Life. Security
National and Capital Investors are restricted to the amount of
dividends they may pay depending upon their earnings and
surplus. Generally, Security National's and Capital
Investors' excess surplus as calculated under the Utah
Insurance Code is not restricted except for prior notification
to the Department of Insurance if the dividend exceeded the
preceding year's earnings.
