Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
June 30, 1998
(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 six months ended June 30, 1998, are not necessarily
indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending
December 31, 1998. For further information, refer to the
consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto for the year
ended December 31, 1997, included in the Company's Annual Report on
Form 10-K (file number 0-9341).
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial
statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from
those estimates.
The estimates susceptible to significant change are those used in
determining the liability for future policy benefits and claims,
those used in determining valuation allowances for mortgage loans on
real estate, and those used in determining the estimated future
costs for pre-need sales. Although some variability is inherent in
these estimates, management believes the amounts provided are
adequate.
2. Comprehensive Income
As of January 1, 1998, the Company adopted Statement 130, Reporting
Comprehensive Income. Statement 130 establishes new rules for the
reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components;
however, the adoption of this Statement had no impact on the
Company's net income or stockholders' equity. Statement 130
requires unrealized gains or losses on the Company's available-for-
sale securities, which prior to adoption were reported separately in
stockholders' equity, to be included in other comprehensive income.
For the three months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997 total
comprehensive income amounted to $101,292 and $225,984,
respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997,
total comprehensive income amounted to $669,662 and $458,728,
respectively.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Overview
The Company's operations over the last several 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, annuities, and limited
pay accident policies; (ii) emphasis on high margin cemetery and
mortuary business; and (iii) capitalizing on the strong economy in
the intermountain west by originating and refinancing mortgage
loans.
Results of Operations
Second Quarter of 1998 Compared to Second Quarter of 1997
Total revenues increased by $1,130,000, or 16.2%, to $8,112,000 for
the three months ended June 30, 1998, from $6,982,000 for the three
months ended June 30, 1997. Contributing to this increase in total
revenues was a $1,018,000 increase in mortgage fee income, a
$175,000 increase in net investment income, and a $161,000 increase
in net mortuary and cemetery sales. These increases were partially
offset by a $54,000 decrease in insurance premiums and other
considerations and a $171,000 decrease in realized gains on
investments and other assets.
Insurance premiums and other considerations decreased by $54,000, or
3.6%, to $1,457,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1998, from
$1,511,000 for the comparable period in 1997. This decrease was
primarily due to a reduction in policies in force from new business.
Net investment income increased by $175,000, or 10.4%, to $1,868,000
for the three months ended June 30, 1998, from $1,693,000 for the
comparable period in 1997. This increase was attributable to the
Company warehousing additional mortgage loans during the second
quarter of 1998 as compared to the second quarter of 1997.
Net mortuary and cemetery sales increased by $161,000, or 7.1%, to
$2,433,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1998, from $2,272,000
for the comparable period in 1997. This increase was primarily
related to an increase in pre-need sales which increased 45% over
the prior period.
Mortgage fee income increased by $1,018,000, or 80.6%, to $2,280,000
for the three months ended June 30, 1998, from $1,262,000 for the
comparable period in 1997. This increase was primarily attributable
to more loan originations during the second quarter of 1998 from the
refinancing of residential loans brought about by lower interest
rates.
Total benefits and expenses were $7,886,000, or 97.2% of total
revenues for the three months ended June 30 1998, as compared to
$6,785,000, or 97.2% of total revenues for the three months ended
June 30, 1997.
Death benefits, surrenders and other policy benefits and increase in
future policy benefits increased by $77,000, or 4.4%, to $1,823,000
for the three months ended June 30, 1998, from $1,746,000 for the
comparable period in 1997. This increase was primarily the result of
accumulative interest on policyholder funds.
Amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs and cost of
insurance acquired decreased by $28,000, or 8.6%, to $297,000, for
the three months ended June 30, 1998, from $325,000 for the
comparable period in 1997. This decrease was in line with the
actuarial assumptions.
General and administrative expenses increased by $926,000, or 24.8%,
to $4,660,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1998, from
$3,734,000 for the comparable period in 1997. This increase
primarily resulted from an increase in commissions and other
expenses due to additional mortgage loan originations having been
made by the Company's mortgage subsidiary during the second quarter
of 1998.
Interest expense decreased by $26,000, or 9.9%, to $234,000 for the
three months ended June 30, 1998, from $260,000 for the comparable
period in 1997. This decrease was primarily due to the reduction of
long-term debt.
Cost of goods and services sold of the mortuaries and cemeteries
increased by $153,000, or 21.2%, to $872,000 for the three months
ended June 30, 1998, from $719,000 for the comparable period in
1997. This increase was consistent with the increase in net
mortuary and cemetery sales.
Six Months Ended June 30, 1998 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30,
1997
Total revenues increased by $1,518,000, or 10.5%, to $15,920,000 for
the six months ended June 30, 1998, from $14,402,000 for the six
months ended June 30, 1997. Contributing to this increase in total
revenues was a $1,295,000 increase in mortgage fee income, a $32,000
increase in insurance premiums and other considerations, a $246,000
increase in net investment income, and a $100,000 increase in net
mortuary and cemetery sales. These increases were partially offset
by a $171,000 decrease in realized gains on investments and other
assets.
Insurance premiums and other considerations increased by $32,000, or
1.1%, to $3,015,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1998, from
$2,983,000 for the comparable period in 1997. This increase was
primarily due to an increase in policies in force from new business.
Net investment income increased by $246,000, or 7.1%, to $3,712,000
for the six months ended June 30, 1998, from $3,466,000 for the
comparable period in 1997. This increase was attributable to the
Company warehousing additional mortgage loans during the six months
ended June 30, 1998 as compared to the six months ended June 30,
1997.
Net mortuary and cemetery sales increased by $100,000, or 2.1%, to
$4,872,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1998, from $4,772,000
for the comparable period in 1997. This increase is primarily
related to an increase in pre-need sales and at-need sales which
increased 22% and 3%, respectively, over the prior period.
Mortgage fee income increased by $1,295,000, or 44.9%, to $4,183,000
for the six months ended June 30, 1998, from $2,888,000 for the
comparable period in 1997. This increase was primarily attributable
to more loan originations during the first six months of 1998 from
the refinancing of residential loans brought about by lower interest
rates.
Total benefits and expenses were $15,079,000, or 94.7% of total
revenues for the six months ended June 30 1998, as compared to
$13,695,000, or 95.1% of total revenues for the six months ended
June 30, 1997.
Death benefits, surrenders and other policy benefits and increase in
future policy benefits increased by $104,000, or 3.2%, to $3,388,000
for the six months ended June 30, 1998, from $3,284,000 for the
comparable period in 1997. This increase was primarily the result of
accumulative interest on policyholder funds.
Amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs and cost of
insurance acquired decreased by $46,000, or 7.2%, to $593,000, for
the six months ended June 30, 1998, from $639,000 for the comparable
period in 1997. This decrease was in line with the actuarial
assumptions.
General and administrative expenses increased by $1,354,000, or
17.4%, to $9,137,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1998, from
$7,783,000 for the comparable period in 1997. This increase
primarily resulted from an increase in commissions and other
expenses due to additional mortgage loan originations having been
made by the Company's mortgage subsidiary during the six months
ended June 30, 1998.
Interest expense decreased by $118,000, or 22.0%, to $420,000 for
the six months ended June 30, 1998, from $538,000 for the comparable
period in 1997. This decrease was primarily due to the reduction of
long-term debt.
Cost of goods and services sold of the mortuaries and cemeteries
increased by $92,000, or 6.3%, to $1,543,000 for the six months
ended June 30, 1998, from $1,451,000 for the comparable period in
1997. This increase was consistent with the increase in net
mortuary and cemetery sales.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company's life insurance subsidiary 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 investments, or
sale of other investments. The mortgage subsidiary realizes cash
flow from fees generated by originating and refinancing mortgage
loans and interest earned on mortgages sold to investors. 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,
the maintenance of existing policies, debt service, and operating
expenses.
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 predominantly in fixed
maturity securities, mortgage loans, 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 life insurance subsidiary
amounted to $44,993,000 at amortized cost as of June 30, 1998
compared to $49,697,000 at amortized cost as of December 31, 1997.
This represents 61% and 64% of the total insurance-related
investments as of June 30, 1998 and December 31, 1997, respectively.
Generally, all bonds owned by the life insurance subsidiary are
rated by the National Association of Insurance Commissioners. Under
this rating system, there are six categories used for rating bonds.
At June 30, 1998, 4.5% ($2,018,000) and at December 31, 1997, 4.1%
($2,018,000) of the Company's total investment in bonds were
invested in bonds in rating categories three through six, which are
considered non-investment grade.
The Company intends 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 short-term
investment grade securities before liquidating high-yielding longer
term securities.
The Company is subject to risk based capital guidelines established
by statutory regulators requiring minimum capital levels based on
the perceived risk of assets, liabilities, disintermediation, and
business risk. At June 30, 1998 and December 31, 1997, the life
insurance subsidiary exceeded the regulatory criteria.
The Company's total capitalization of stockholders' equity and bank
debt and notes payable was $35,803,000 as of June 30, 1998 as
compared to $35,276,000 as of December 31, 1997. Stockholders'
equity as a percent of capitalization increased to 74% as of June
30, 1998 from 72% as of December 31, 1997 and as a percent of assets
was 20% for both periods.
Lapse rates measure the amount of insurance terminated during a
particular period. The Company's lapse rate for life insurance in
1997 was 11.7% as compared to a rate of 12.0% for 1996. The 1998
lapse rate is approximately the same as 1997.
At June 30, 1998, $11,948,000 of the Company's consolidated
stockholders' equity represents the statutory stockholders' equity
of the Company's life insurance subsidiary. The life insurance
subsidiary cannot pay a dividend to its parent company without the
approval of insurance regulatory authorities.
Acquisitions
On April 27, 1998, the Company entered into an Acquisition Agreement
(the "Agreement") with Consolidare Enterprises, Inc., a Florida
corporation, ("Consolidare"), and certain shareholders of
Consolidare for the purchase of all of the outstanding shares of
common stock of Consolidare. Consolidare owns approximately 57.4%
of the outstanding shares of common stock of Southern Security Life
Insurance Company, a Florida corporation ("SSLIC"), and all of the
outstanding shares of stock of Insuradyne Corp., a Florida
corporation ("Insuradyne"). SSLIC is a Florida domiciled insurance
company with total assets of approximately $82.1 million. SSLIC is
currently licensed to transact business in 14 states. SSLIC's total
revenues for the year ended December 31, 1997 were $11,695,756.
SSLIC had a net income of $195,000 for fiscal 1997.
As consideration for the purchase of the shares of Consolidare, the
Company will pay to the holders of Consolidare common stock an
aggregate of $11,356,400 plus an amount equal to the current assets
of Consolidare as of the closing date. For purposes of the purchase
consideration, current assets of Consolidare are defined as cash and
cash equivalents (with interest earned through the closing date) and
accrued commission due to Insuradyne from SSLIC. To pay the
purchase consideration, the Company intends to obtain approximately
$6,500,000 from bank financing, with the balance of approximately
$4,856,400 to be obtained from funds currently held by the Company.
In addition to the purchase consideration, the Company is required
to cause SSLIC to pay, on the closing date, $1,050,000 to George
Pihakis, who is currently President and Chief Executive Officer of
SSLIC, as a lump sum settlement of the executive compensation
agreement between SSLIC and Mr. Pihakis.
The closing of the Agreement is contingent upon regulatory
approvals, including the approval of the Florida Department of
Insurance and the Utah Insurance Department, compliance or waiver of
compliance under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of
1976, approval of the Agreement by the affirmative vote of a
majority of the Consolidare shareholders, with no Consolidare
shareholders exercising their rights as dissenting shareholders
under Section 607.1320 of the Florida statutes, as well as the
satisfactory performance of certain covenants and the accuracy of
the parties' respective representations and warranties at closing.
Following the closing of the Agreement, it is the intention of the
Company to merge a newly formed wholly-owned subsidiary of Security
National Life Insurance Company into Consolidare, with the result
that Security National Life Insurance Company will then own 57.4% of
the outstanding shares of common stock of SSLIC. The Company
further intends to continue to operate SSLIC as a Florida domiciled
insurance company.
Year 2000 Issues
The Company is aware of the issues associated with the programming
code in existing computer systems as the millennium ("Year 2000")
approaches. The Year 2000 problem is pervasive and complex as
virtually every computer operation will be affected in some way by
the rollover of the two digit year value to 00. The issue is whether
computer systems will properly recognize data sensitive information
when the year changes to 2000. Systems that do not properly
recognize such information could generate erroneous data or cause a
system to fail.
The Company's systems, which are presently in use, have been
purchased from third party vendors. The Company is in the process of
converting to the latest versions for these systems which are Year
2000 compliant ("Version 2000"). The Company plans to have the
Version 2000 installed and in use for its life insurance subsidiary
in the third quarter of 1998 and the Version 2000 installed and in
use for its cemetery and mortuary subsidiaries in the first quarter
of 1999. The mortgage subsidiary is currently using a Version 2000
system. The total cost for the Version 2000 systems is approximately
$50,000, of which $40,000 has been spent as of June 30, 1998.
Once installed the Company believes that the Year 2000 problem will
not pose significiant operational problems for the Company. However,
if such conversions are not completed timely, the Year 2000 problem
may have a material impact on the operations of the Company. Also,
the Company is in the process of confirming with its major vendors
and suppliers to determine their readiness for the Year 2000.
