Glossary

The following terms are common to the deathcare industry, are used throughout this report, and have the following meanings:

<u>Atneed</u> — Funeral, including cremation, and cemetery arrangements sold once death has occurred.

<u>Average Revenue per Service</u> — Average revenue per funeral service performed, excluding the impact of non-funeral home preneed sales revenue, core general agency revenue, and certain other revenue.

<u>Cancellation</u> — Termination of a preneed contract, which relieves us of the obligation to provide the goods and services included in the contract. Cancellations may be requested by the customer or be initiated by us if the customer fails to comply with the contractual terms of payment. State or provincial laws govern the amount of refund, if any, owed to the customer.

<u>Care Trusts' Corpus</u> — The deposits and net realized capital gains included in the cemetery perpetual care trusts that may not be withdrawable. In certain states, some or all of the net realized capital gains can be distributed to us. Additionally, some states allow a total return distribution that may contain elements of income, capital appreciation, and principal.

<u>Cemetery Marker</u> — An item used to identify the deceased person in a particular burial space, crypt, niche, or cremation memorialization property. Permanent burial and cremation memorialization cemetery markers are usually made of bronze or stone.

<u>Cemetery Merchandise and Services</u> — Merchandise and services used in connection with a cemetery interment, including stone and bronze memorials, cemetery markers, outer burial containers, floral placement, graveside services, merchandise installations, urns, and interments.

<u>Cemetery Perpetual Care Trust or Endowment Care Fund (ECF)</u> — A trust fund established for the purpose of maintaining cemetery grounds and property into perpetuity. For these trusts, the corpus generally remains in the trust in perpetuity and the investment earnings or elected distributions are withdrawn regularly and are intended to defray our expenses incurred to maintain the cemetery. In certain states, some or all of the net realized capital gains can also be distributed. Additionally, some states generally allow a total return distribution that may contain elements of income, capital appreciation, and principal.

<u>Cemetery Property</u> — Developed lots, lawn crypts, mausoleum spaces, cremation niches, and cremation memorialization property items (constructed and ready to accept interments) and undeveloped land we intend to develop for the sale of interment rights. Includes the construction-in-progress balance during the pre-construction and construction phases of projects creating new developed property items.

<u>Cemetery Property Amortization or Amortization of Cemetery Property</u> — The non-cash recognized expenses of cemetery property interment rights, which are recorded by specific identification with the cemetery property revenue for each contract.

<u>Cemetery Property Interment Rights</u> — The exclusive right to determine the human remains that will be interred in a specific cemetery property space. See also Cemetery Property Revenue below.

<u>Cemetery Property Revenue</u> — Recognized sales of interment rights in cemetery property when the receivable is deemed collectible and the property is fully constructed and available for interment.

<u>Combination Location (Combos)</u> — Locations where a funeral service location is physically located within or adjoining a SCI-owned cemetery location.

<u>Cremation</u> — The reduction of human remains to bone fragments by intense heat.

<u>Cremation Memorialization</u> — Products specifically designed to commemorate and honor the life of an individual who has been cremated. These products include cemetery property items that provide for the disposition of cremated remains within our cemeteries such as benches, boulders, statues, cremation niches, etc. They also include memorial walls and books where the name of the individual is inscribed but the remains have been scattered or kept by the family.

<u>Cremation Niche</u> — An aboveground burial space, in which a decedent's urn, containing their cremated remains and other keepsakes, is placed and sometimes sealed.

<u>Funeral Merchandise and Services</u> — Merchandise such as burial caskets and related accessories, outer burial containers, urns and other cremation receptacles, casket and cremation memorialization products, flowers, and professional services relating to funerals including arranging and directing services, use of funeral facilities and motor vehicles, removal, preparation, embalming, cremations, memorialization, visitations, travel protection, and catering.

<u>Funeral Services Performed</u> — The number of funeral services, including cremations, provided after the date of death, sometimes referred to as funeral volume.

<u>General Agency (GA) Revenue</u> — Commissions we receive from third-party life insurance companies for life insurance policies sold to preneed customers for the purpose of funding preneed funeral arrangements. The commission rate paid is determined based on the product type sold, the length of payment terms, and the health and age of the insured/annuitant.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;FORM 10-Q **3**

------

<u>Interment</u> — The burial or final placement of human remains in the ground (interment), in mausoleums (entombment), or in cremation niches or cremation memorialization property (inurnment).

<u>Lawn Crypt</u> — Cemetery property in which an underground outer burial receptacle constructed of concrete and reinforced steel has been pre-installed in designated areas.

<u>Maturity</u> — When the underlying contracted merchandise is delivered or service is performed, typically at death. This is the point at which preneed funeral contracts are converted to atneed contracts (note — delivery of certain merchandise and services can occur prior to death).

<u>Mausoleum</u> — An above ground structure that is designed to house caskets and/or cremation urns.

<u>Merchandise and Service Trust</u> — A trust account established in accordance with state or provincial law into which we deposit the required percentage of customers' payments for preneed funeral, cremation, or cemetery merchandise and services to be delivered or performed by us in the future. The amounts deposited can be withdrawn only after we have completed our obligations under the preneed contract or upon the cancellation of the contract. Also referred to as a preneed trust.

<u>Non-Funeral Home Preneed Sales Revenue</u> — Non-funeral home general agency revenue and merchandise and travel protection revenue, net, sold to a preneed customer and delivered before a death has occurred.

<u>Outer Burial Container</u> — A reinforced container intended to inhibit the subsidence of the earth and house the casket after it is placed in the ground, also known as a burial vault.

<u>Preneed</u> — Purchase of cemetery property interment rights or any funeral or cemetery merchandise and services prior to death occurring or prior to delivery of products and services.

<u>Preneed Backlog or Backlog of Preneed Revenue</u> — Future revenue from unfulfilled preneed funeral, cremation, and cemetery contractual arrangements.

<u>Preneed Cemetery Sales Production</u> — Sales of preneed cemetery contracts. These sales are recorded in *Deferred revenue, net* until the merchandise is delivered, the service is performed, or the property has been constructed and is available for interment.

<u>Preneed Funeral Sales Production</u> — Sales of preneed funeral trust-funded and insurance-funded contracts. Preneed funeral trust-funded contracts are recorded in *Deferred revenue, net* until the merchandise is delivered or the service is performed. We do not reflect the unfulfilled insurance-funded preneed funeral contract amounts in our Consolidated Balance Sheet as the contract is between the customer and the insurance provider. Revenue from these policies is recognized when we perform the services and deliver the merchandise.

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

**1. Nature of Operations**

Service Corporation International (SCI) is a holding company and all operations are conducted by its subsidiaries. We are North America's largest provider of deathcare products and services, with a network of funeral service locations and cemeteries operating in the United States and Canada. Our funeral service and cemetery operations consist of funeral service locations, cemeteries, funeral service/cemetery combination locations, crematoria, and other related businesses, which enable us to serve a wide array of customer needs. We sell cemetery property and funeral and cemetery merchandise and services at the time of need and on a preneed basis. We strive to offer families exceptional service in planning life celebrations and personalized remembrances.

Funeral service locations provide all professional services relating to funerals and cremations, including the use of funeral facilities and motor vehicles, arranging and directing services, removal, preparation, embalming, cremations, memorialization, travel protection, and catering. Funeral merchandise, including burial caskets and related accessories, urns and other cremation receptacles, outer burial containers, flowers, online and video tributes, stationery products, casket and cremation memorialization products, and other ancillary merchandise, is sold at our funeral service locations.

Our cemeteries provide cemetery property interment rights, including developed lots, lawn crypts, mausoleum spaces, cremation niches, and custom inventory, including private mausoleums, family estates, and exclusive cremation memorialization options. Cemetery merchandise and services, including memorial cemetery markers and bases, outer burial containers, flowers and floral placement, other ancillary merchandise, graveside services, merchandise installation, and interments, are sold at our cemeteries.

**2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies**

Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation

Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of SCI and all subsidiaries in which we hold a controlling financial interest. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements also include the accounts of the merchandise, service, and cemetery perpetual care trusts in which we have a variable interest and are the primary beneficiary. We have retained the specialized industry accounting principles when consolidating the trusts. Our trusts are variable interest entities, for which we have determined that we are the primary beneficiary as we absorb a majority of the losses and returns associated with these trusts. Although we consolidate the trusts, it does not change the legal relationships among the trusts, us, or our customers. The customers are the legal beneficiaries of these trusts; therefore, their interests in these trusts represent a liability to us.

Our interim condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited but include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals and any other adjustments, which management considers necessary for a fair statement of our results for these periods. Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in a manner consistent with the accounting policies described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, unless otherwise disclosed herein, and should be read in conjunction therewith. The accompanying year-end Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year period.

Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period amounts to conform to the current period disclosure presentation with no effect on our consolidated net income, cash flows, or equity.

Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that may affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. As a result, actual results could differ from these estimates.

Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Restricted Cash

We consider all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The carrying amounts of our cash and cash equivalents approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

**Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses**

In November 2024, the FASB issued guidance that requires disclosures about specific types of expenses included in the expense captions presented on the face of the income statement as well as disclosures about selling expenses. The guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, with early adoption permitted, and it can be adopted either on a prospective or retrospective basis. Upon adoption, we will include the additional disclosures in our financial statements and related notes; however, the guidance will not have a material effect on our financial position or results of operations.

**Internal-Use Software**

In September 2025, the FASB issued guidance to modernize the accounting for software costs that are accounted for under Subtopic 350-40, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Internal-Use Software. The new guidance is effective for us for the 2028 annual period, with early adoption permitted, and it can be adopted either on a prospective, modified or retrospective basis. We are currently assessing the impact of this guidance on our disclosures and upon adoption, we will include the required disclosures in our financial statements and related notes.

Our alternative investments include funds invested in limited partnerships with interests in private equity, private market real estate, energy and natural resources, infrastructure, transportation, and private debt including both distressed debt and mezzanine financing. These investments can never be redeemed by the funds. Instead, due to the nature of the investments in this category, distributions are received through the liquidation of the underlying assets of the funds. The funds' managers have not communicated the timing of any liquidations.

Maturity dates of our fixed income securities range from 2026 to 2044. Maturities of fixed income securities (excluding mutual funds) at March 31, 2026 are estimated as follows:

**4. Income Taxes**

Income tax expense during interim periods is based on our estimated annual effective income tax rate plus any discrete items, which are recorded in the period in which they occur. Discrete items include, among others, events such as changes in estimates due to the finalization of tax returns, tax audit settlements, expiration of statutes of limitation, and increases or decreases in valuation allowances on deferred tax assets. Our effective tax rate was 25.0% and 26.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The effective tax rate was lower for the three months ended March 31, 2026 primarily due to a discrete tax benefit from an investment in a renewable energy project recognized in the quarter. The impact on the full year is expected to be minimal. The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was higher than the federal statutory tax rate of 21.0% primarily due to state and foreign tax expense.

We participate in tax equity investments in renewable energy projects that qualify for federal investment tax credits. These investments are accounted for under the proportional amortization method. Tax credits and other related tax benefits are recognized as a reduction of income tax expense as they are realized, with corresponding amortization of the investment in proportion to the tax benefits received. During the the three months ended March 31, 2026, we recognized $52.1 million of investment tax credits and other tax benefits and recorded $49.9 million of amortization related to these investments. The tax credits and related amortization are presented net within the *Provision for income taxes* in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. As of March 31, 2026, the unamortized balance of renewable energy tax credit investments was $1.1 million included in *Deferred charges and other assets*, and unfunded commitments related to these investments, which are expected to be paid in 2026, totaled $40.8 million included in *Accounts payable and accrued liabilities* on the Consolidated Balance Sheet.

The federal statutes of limitations have expired for all tax years prior to 2022. Currently, our 2022 federal income tax return is under audit by the IRS, and certain state income tax returns for the years 2022 through 2023 are also being audited. While there are no federal or provincial audits in Canada, years subsequent to 2021 remain open for potential examination. The outcome of each of these audits cannot be predicted at this time.

Bank Credit Agreement

The bank credit agreement provides us with flexibility for working capital, if needed, and is guaranteed by a majority of our domestic subsidiaries. The subsidiary guaranty is a guaranty of payment of the outstanding amount of the total lending commitment, including letters of credit. The bank credit agreement contains a maximum leverage ratio financial covenant and certain dividend and share repurchase restrictions. As of March 31, 2026, we were in compliance with all of our debt covenants. At March 31, 2026, we issued $46.7 million of letters of credit and pay a quarterly fee on the unused commitment, which was 0.20%. As of March 31, 2026, we have $1,448.3 million in borrowing capacity under the facility. The bank credit agreement had an interest rate of 5.42% and 5.44% at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. As of December 31, 2025, we issued $47.0 million of letters of credit.

**6. Credit Risk and Fair Value of Financial Instruments**

Fair Value Estimates

The fair value estimates of the following financial instruments have been determined using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies. The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, and trade payables approximate the fair values of those instruments due to the short-term nature of the instruments. The carrying values of receivables on preneed funeral and cemetery contracts approximate fair value as the terms and conditions of these contracts are comparable to our current contract offerings.

The fair value of our debt instruments was as follows:

| | **March 31, 2026** | **December 31, 2025** |
| | **(In thousands)** | **(In thousands)** |

| 5.125% Senior Notes due June 2029 | 746595 | 755040 |
| 3.375% Senior Notes due August 2030 | 788800 | 796815 |
| 4.000% Senior Notes due May 2031 | 752296 | 763592 |
| 5.750% Senior Notes due October 2032 | 804384 | 815416 |
| Term Loan due November 2030 | 745313 | 750000 |
| Bank Credit Facility due November 2030 | 255000 | 255000 |
| Corporate Headquarters Debt Facility due February 2037 | 80848 | 54766 |
| Mortgage notes and other debt maturities through 2050 | 78181 | 80762 |
| Total fair value of debt instruments | $4937331 | $4962533 |

---

The fair values of our long-term, fixed rate loans were estimated using market prices for those loans, and therefore they are classified within Level 2 of the fair value measurements hierarchy. The Term Loan, Bank Credit Facility, Corporate Headquarters Debt Facility, and the mortgage notes and other debt are classified within Level 3 of the fair value measurements hierarchy. The fair values of these instruments have been estimated using discounted cash flow analysis based on our incremental borrowing rate for similar borrowing arrangements. An increase (decrease) in the inputs results in a directionally opposite change in the fair value of the instruments.

**7. Equity**

**(All shares reported in whole numbers)**

Share Repurchase Program

Subject to market conditions, normal trading restrictions, and limitations in our debt covenants, we may make purchases of our common stock in the open market or through privately negotiated transactions under our share repurchase program. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, we repurchased 1,789,293 shares of common stock at an aggregate cost of $144.4 million, which is an average cost per share of $80.69. After these repurchases, the remaining dollar value of shares authorized to be purchased under the share repurchase program was $215.1 million at March 31, 2026.

Subsequent to March 31, 2026, we repurchased 184,422 shares for $15.3 million at an average cost per share of $82.81.

**9. Commitments and Contingencies**

Insurance Loss Reserves

We purchase various insurance products with high deductibles including: comprehensive general liability, morticians and cemetery professional liability, automobile liability, and workers' compensation. The high-deductible insurance program means we are primarily self-insured for claims and associated costs and losses covered by these policies. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, we had self-insurance reserves of $111.4 million and $108.4 million, respectively.

Litigation and Regulatory Matters

We are a party to various litigation and regulatory matters, investigations, and proceedings. Some of the more frequent routine litigations incidental to our business are based on operational claims and employment-related matters, including discrimination, harassment, and wage and hour laws and regulations. For each of our outstanding legal matters, we evaluate the merits of the case, our exposure to the matter, possible legal or settlement strategies, and the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome. We intend to vigorously defend ourselves in the matters described herein; however, if we determine that an unfavorable outcome is probable and can be reasonably estimated, or if we determine an amount for which we would be willing to settle the matter to avoid further costs and risk, we establish the necessary accruals. We hold certain insurance policies that may reduce cash outflows with respect to an adverse outcome of these matters. We accrue such insurance recoveries when they become probable of being paid and can be reasonably estimated.

***<u>Unclaimed Property Audits</u>***

We have received notices from auditors representing the unclaimed property departments of approximately forty states regarding the escheatment of preneed trust funds held in association with unused preneed funeral and cemetery contracts ("Unused Preneed Trust Funds"). The states claim that these Unused Preneed Trust Funds are subject to the states' unclaimed property or escheatment laws and generally assert that all or a portion of the Unused Preneed Trust Funds are escheatable if the beneficiary and/or purchaser is deceased or presumed deceased and no services or merchandise have been provided. We received notice that the unclaimed property audits are resolved and no additional property is due to be reported under these audits for the states of Alabama, Connecticut, Iowa, Kentucky, Maryland, Massachusetts, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, South Dakota, Texas, West Virginia, and Wyoming.

We have entered into an audit resolution agreement with the State of Florida Department of Financial Services and Division of Unclaimed Property ("Florida Agreement"). The Florida Agreement provides for us to retain the trust fund earnings and to escheat the principal to the State of Florida, which resulted in an increase in trust fund income in 2023, 2024, and 2025.

We have reserved all of our rights, claims, and defenses. Given the nature of these matters, we are unable to reasonably estimate the total possible loss or ranges of loss, if any.

**10. Earnings Per Share**

Basic earnings per common share (EPS) excludes dilution and is computed by dividing *Net income attributable to common stockholders* by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other obligations to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that shared in our earnings.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

**The Company**

We are North America's largest provider of deathcare products and services, with a network of funeral service locations and cemeteries unequaled in geographic scale and reach. At March 31, 2026, we operated 1,487 funeral service locations and 503 cemeteries (including 314 funeral service/cemetery combination locations), which are geographically diversified across 44 states, eight Canadian provinces, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico. Our funeral and cemetery operations consist of funeral service locations, cemeteries, funeral service/cemetery combination locations, crematoria, and other related businesses, which enable us to serve a wide array of customer needs. We sell cemetery property and funeral and cemetery merchandise and services at the time of need and on a preneed basis. We strive to offer families exceptional service in planning life celebrations and personalized remembrances. Our Dignity Memorial<sup>®</sup> brand serves approximately 700,000 combined preneed and atneed families each year with professionalism, compassion, and attention to detail.

Our financial position is enhanced by our $17.1 billion backlog of future revenue from both trust and insurance-funded preneed sales at March 31, 2026. Preneed selling provides us with a strategic opportunity to gain future market share. We also believe it adds to the stability and predictability of our revenue and cash flows. While revenue on the majority of preneed merchandise and service sales is deferred until the time of need, sales of preneed cemetery property provide opportunities for revenue recognition to the extent that the property is developed and available for use.

We believe we have adequate liquidity and a favorable debt maturity profile, which allow us to reinvest and grow our business as well as return capital to shareholders through share repurchases and dividends.

Factors affecting our operating results include: demographic trends in terms of population growth and average age, which impact death rates; establishing and maintaining leading market share positions supported by strong local heritage and relationships; effectively responding to increasing cremation trends by selling complementary services and merchandise; controlling salary and merchandise costs; and exercising pricing leverage. The average revenue per funeral contract is influenced by the mix of traditional versus cremation services as our average revenue for cremations is lower than that for traditional burials. To further enhance revenue opportunities, we continue to focus on our cremation customers' preferences, and remaining relevant by developing additional cemetery property, memorialization merchandise and services that specifically appeal to cremation customers. We believe the presentation of these additional offerings through our customer-facing technology improves our customers' experience by allowing them to visualize the enhanced product and service offerings. In addition, we believe this will help drive increases in the average revenue for a cremation or incremental cemetery property sales in future periods. While general economic conditions, inflation, and consumer confidence may affect the timing or mix of customer purchases, demand is generally deferred rather than lost. Accordingly, demand for these products and services has historically been less sensitive to economic cycles than other discretionary consumer purchases.

For further discussion of our key operating metrics, see our "<u>[Cash Flow](#ib3328b5c9f594b72bc6aab18f2a4aa8d_85)</u>" and "<u>[Results of Operations](#ib3328b5c9f594b72bc6aab18f2a4aa8d_97)</u>" sections below.

**Financial Condition, Liquidity, and Capital Resources**

We have adequate liquidity and a favorable debt maturity profile, which allow us to reinvest and grow our business as well as return capital to shareholders through share repurchases and dividends.

Capital Allocation Considerations

We rely on cash flow from operations as a significant source of liquidity. Our cash flow from operating activities provided $333.8 million in the first three months of 2026. As of March 31, 2026, we had $1,448.3 million in remaining borrowing capacity under our Bank Credit Facility.

Our Bank Credit Facility requires us to maintain a certain leverage ratio with which we were in compliance at March 31, 2026. We target a leverage ratio of 3.5x to 4.0x.

Our financial covenant requirements and actual ratio as of March 31, 2026 were as follows:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| | **Per Credit Agreement** | **Actual** |
| Leverage ratio | 5.00 (Max) | 3.68 |

---

We have the financial strength and flexibility to reward shareholders with dividends while maintaining a prudent capital structure and pursuing new opportunities for profitable growth.

**26** Service Corporation International

------

PART I

Our unencumbered cash on hand, future operating cash flows, and the available capacity under our Bank Credit Facilities give us adequate liquidity to meet our short-term needs as well as our long-term financial obligations. Due to cash balances residing in Canada and minimum operating cash requirements, a portion of our cash on hand is encumbered.

We consistently evaluate the best uses of our cash flow that will yield the highest value and return on capital. Our capital investment strategy is prioritized as follows:

*<u>Investing in Acquisitions and Building New Funeral Service and Cemetery Locations.</u>* We manage our footprint by focusing on strategic acquisitions and building new funeral service and cemetery locations where the expected returns are attractive and exceed our weighted average cost of capital. We target businesses with favorable customer dynamics and/or where we can achieve the benefits of economies of scale. We continue to pursue strategic acquisitions and build new funeral service and cemetery locations in areas that provide us with the potential for additional scale.

*<u>Returning Excess Cash to Shareholders.</u>* In addition to any strategic acquisitions or new build opportunities, we continue to return cash to shareholders through regular quarterly dividends and our share repurchase program. Our quarterly dividend rate has steadily grown from $0.025 per common share in 2005 to $0.34 per common share in 2026. We target a dividend payout ratio of 30% to 40% of after tax earnings excluding special items and intend to grow our cash dividend commensurate with the growth in our business. While we intend to pay regular quarterly cash dividends for the foreseeable future, all future dividends are subject to limitations in our debt covenants, and final determination by our Board of Directors each quarter upon review of our financial performance. We also expect to continue to repurchase shares of our common stock in the open market or through privately negotiated transactions, subject to market conditions, debt covenants, and normal trading restrictions. There can be no assurance that we will buy our common stock under our repurchase program in the future. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, we repurchased 1,789,293 shares of our common stock at an aggregate cost of $144.4 million, which is an average cost per share of $80.69.

*<u>Managing Debt.</u>* We continue to focus on maintaining optimal levels of liquidity and financial flexibility. We generate a relatively consistent annual cash flow stream that is generally resistant to down economic cycles. This cash flow stream and our significant liquidity allow us to substantially reduce our long-term debt maturities should we choose to do so.

Cash Flow

Our ability to generate strong operating cash flow is one of our fundamental financial strengths and provides us with substantial flexibility in meeting operating and investing needs.

**Operating Activities**

Net cash provided by operating activities was $333.8 million and $311.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The $22.7 million increase in operating cash flows from 2025 comprises:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a $31.4 million decrease in vendor and other payments,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a $24.6 million increase in cash receipts from customers, General Agency (GA) commission and other receipts,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a $4.0 million decrease in restructuring payments,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a $0.5 million decrease in cash tax payments, and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a $0.2 million decrease in payments for certain legal matters, partially offset by

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a $28.4 million increase in employee compensation payments,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a $5.9 million increase in net trust deposits, and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a $3.7 million increase in cash interest payments.

**Investing Activities**

Net cash flows used in investing activities was $132.3 million and $90.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The $41.6 million increased outflow in 2026 over 2025 is primarily due to the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a $19.3 million increase in capital expenditures related to construction of our new corporate headquarters which is substantially financed through a separate construction loan facility,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a $9.2 million increase in cash spent on business acquisitions,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a $5.8 million decrease in cash receipts from divestitures and asset sales,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a $3.8 million decrease in net proceeds for Company-owned life insurance policies,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a $1.8 million increase in cash spent on real estate acquisitions,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a $1.7 million increase in total capital expenditures, which comprises:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a $0.4 million net decrease in maintenance capital expenditures, which includes:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a $0.5 million decrease in expenditures for cemetery property development, partially offset by

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a $0.8 million increase in expenditures for digital investments and corporate.

**Financing Activities**

Net Cash used in financing activities was $184.9 million and $205.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The $20.8 million decreased outflow in 2026 over 2025 is primarily due to the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a $23.6 million increase in borrowings from our corporate headquarters debt facility,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a $9.3 million decrease in debt repayments, net of proceeds, and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a $2.1 million increase in proceeds from exercises of stock options, partially offset by

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a $12.7 million increase in purchase of Company common stock,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a $1.1 million increase in payments of dividends, and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a $0.4 million increase in bank overdrafts and other.

Financial Assurances

In support of our operations, we have entered into arrangements with certain surety companies whereby such companies agree to issue surety bonds on our behalf as financial assurance and/or as required by existing state and local regulations. The surety bonds are used for various business purposes; however, the majority of the surety bonds issued and outstanding have been used to support our preneed sales activities. The obligations underlying these surety bonds are recorded on our unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as *Deferred revenue, net.* The breakdown of surety bonds between funeral and cemetery preneed arrangements, as well as surety bonds for other activities, is described below.

---

|:---|:---|:---|
| | **March 31, 2026** | **December 31, 2025** |
| | **(In millions)** | **(In millions)** |
| Preneed funeral | $211.8 | $209.2 |
| Preneed cemetery: |  |  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Merchandise and services | 134.9 | 134.9 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Pre-construction | 68.3 | 64.5 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Bonds supporting preneed funeral and cemetery obligations | 415.0 | 408.6 |
| Bonds supporting preneed business permits | 8.7 | 8.7 |
| Other bonds | 77.5 | 76.5 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Total surety bonds outstanding | $501.2 | $493.8 |

---

When selling preneed contracts, we may post surety bonds where allowed by state law. We post the surety bonds in lieu of trusting a certain amount of funds received from the customer. The amount of the bond posted is generally determined by the total amount of the preneed contract that would otherwise be required to be trusted, in accordance with applicable state law.

Surety bond premiums are paid annually and the bonds are automatically renewable until maturity of the underlying preneed contracts, unless we are given prior notice of cancellation.

Except for cemetery pre-construction bonds (which are irrevocable), the surety companies generally have the right to cancel the surety bonds at any time with appropriate notice. In the event a surety company were to cancel the surety bond, we are required to obtain replacement surety assurance from another surety company or fund a trust for an amount generally less than the posted bond amount. Management does not expect that we will be required to fund material future amounts related to these surety bonds due to a lack of surety capacity or surety company non-performance.

During the second quarter of 2025, we replaced our letters of credit with a $46.0 million surety bond and a related indemnity obligation with a large insurance company, which is included in *Other bonds* in the table above.

**28** Service Corporation International

PART I

Preneed Activities and Backlog of Contracts

In addition to selling our products and services to client families at the time of need, we enter into price-guaranteed preneed contracts, which provide for future funeral or cemetery merchandise and services. Because preneed funeral and cemetery merchandise or services will generally not be provided until sometime in the future, most states and provinces require that all or a portion of the funds collected from customers on preneed contracts be deposited into merchandise and service trusts until the merchandise is delivered or the service is performed. In certain situations, as described above, where permitted by state or provincial laws, we may post a surety bond as financial assurance for a certain amount of the preneed contract in lieu of placing funds into trust accounts. Alternatively, we may sell a life insurance or annuity policy from third-party insurance companies or use other non-insurance funded third-party providers.

**Insurance and Other Funded Preneed Contracts** 

Where permitted by state or provincial law, we may sell a life insurance or annuity policy from third-party insurance companies, for which we earn a commission as a general sales agent for the insurance company. These general agency commissions (GA revenue) are based on a percentage per contract sold and are recognized as funeral revenue when the insurance purchase transaction between the preneed purchaser and third-party insurance provider is completed. All selling costs incurred pursuant to the sale of insurance-funded preneed contracts are expensed as incurred. We do not reflect the unfulfilled insurance and other funded preneed contract amounts in our unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. The proceeds of the life insurance policies or annuity contracts will be reflected in funeral revenue as we perform these funerals. In addition, we have shifted our non-funeral home preneed sales production strategy from trust to insurance-funded contracts.

The table below details our results of insurance-funded and other non-insurance funded third-party preneed production and maturities.

<sup>(1)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</sup>Amounts are not included in our unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.

**Trust-Funded Preneed Contracts** 

The funds collected from customers are deposited into trusts as required by state or provincial law. We retain any funds above the amounts required to be deposited into trust accounts and use them for working capital purposes, generally to offset the selling and administrative costs of our preneed programs. Although this represents cash flow to us, the associated revenues are deferred until the merchandise is delivered or services are performed (typically at maturity). The funds in trust are then invested by professional money managers with oversight by independent trustees in accordance with state and provincial laws. As discussed above in Insurance and Other Funded Preneed Contracts, we have shifted our non-funeral home preneed sales production strategy from trust to insurance-funded contracts.

**Backlog of Preneed Contracts**

The following table reflects our backlog of trust-funded deferred preneed contract revenue, including amounts related to Deferred receipts held in trust at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025. Additionally, the table reflects our backlog of unfulfilled insurance-funded contracts and other non-insurance funded third-party contracts (which are not included in our unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet) at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025. The backlog amounts presented include amounts due from customers for undelivered performance obligations on cancelable preneed contracts to arrive at our total backlog of deferred revenue. The table does not include the backlog associated with businesses that are held for sale.

The table also reflects our preneed receivables and trust investments associated with the backlog of deferred preneed contract revenue including the amounts due from customers for undelivered performance obligations on cancelable preneed contracts. The table below is meaningful because it sets forth the aggregate amount of future revenue we expect to recognize as a result of preneed sales, as well as the amount of funds associated with this revenue. Because the future revenue exceeds the assets, future revenue will exceed the cash distributions actually received from the associated trusts and future collections from the customer.

(1)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Amounts are not included in our unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.

The fair value of our trust investments was based on a combination of quoted market prices, observable inputs such as interest rates or yield curves, and appraisals. As of March 31, 2026, the difference between the backlog and total assets at fair value represents $0.17 billion related to contracts for which we have posted surety bonds as financial assurance in lieu of trusting, $1.42 billion collected from customers that were not required to be deposited into trusts, and $0.20 billion in allowable cash distributions from trust assets partially offset by $1.54 billion in amounts due on delivered property and merchandise. As of March 31, 2026, the fair value of the total backlog comprised $5.03 billion related to cemetery contracts and $12.04 billion related to funeral contracts. As of March 31, 2026, the fair value of the assets associated with the backlog of trust-funded deferred revenue comprised $5.07 billion related to cemetery contracts and $2.91 billion related to funeral contracts. As of March 31, 2026, the backlog of insurance-funded contracts of $8.84 billion was equal to the proceeds we expect to receive from the associated insurance policies when the corresponding contract is serviced by one of our operating locations.

Trust Investments

In addition to selling our products and services to client families at the time of need, we also enter into price-guaranteed preneed funeral and cemetery contracts, which provide for future funeral or cemetery merchandise and services. Since preneed funeral and cemetery merchandise or services will generally not be provided until sometime in the future, most states and provinces require that all or a portion of the funds collected from customers on preneed funeral and cemetery contracts be paid into trusts and/or escrow accounts until the merchandise is delivered or the service is performed. Investment earnings associated with the trust investments are expected to mitigate the inflationary costs of providing the preneed funeral and cemetery merchandise and services in the future at the prices that were guaranteed at the time of sale. Also, we are required by state and provincial law to pay a portion of the proceeds from the preneed or atneed sale of cemetery property interment rights into perpetual care trusts. For these investments, the original corpus generally remains in the trust in perpetuity and the earnings or elected distributions are withdrawn as allowed to defray the expenses to maintain the cemetery property. While many states require that net capital gains or losses be retained and added to the corpus, certain states allow the net realized capital gains and losses to be included in the earnings that are distributed. Additionally, some states allow a total return distribution that may contain elements of income, capital appreciation, and principal.

Independent trustees manage and invest the majority of the funds deposited into the funeral and cemetery merchandise and service trusts as well as the cemetery perpetual care trusts. The majority of the trustees are selected based on their respective geographic footprint and qualifications per state and provincial regulations. These trustees, with input from SCI's wholly-owned registered investment advisor, establish an investment policy that serves as an operating document to guide the investment activities of the trusts including asset allocation and manager selection. The investments are also governed by

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;FORM 10-Q **31**

------

PART I

state and provincial guidelines. All of the trusts are intended to control risk and volatility through a combination of asset classes, investment styles, and a diverse mix of investment managers.

Asset allocation is based on the liability structure of each funeral, cemetery, and perpetual care trust. Based on the various criteria set forth in the investment policy, the investment advisor recommends investment managers to the trustees. The primary investment objectives for the funeral and cemetery merchandise and service trusts include 1) preserving capital within acceptable levels of volatility and risk and 2) achieving growth of principal over time sufficient to preserve and increase the purchasing power of the assets. Preneed funeral and cemetery contracts generally take several years to mature; therefore, the funds associated with these contracts are often invested through several market cycles.

Where allowed by state and provincial regulations, the cemetery perpetual care trusts' primary investment objectives are growth-oriented to provide for a fixed distribution rate from the trusts' assets. Where such distributions are limited to ordinary income, the cemetery perpetual care trusts' investment objectives emphasize providing a steady stream of current investment income with some capital appreciation. Both types of distributions are used to provide for the current and future maintenance and beautification of the cemetery properties.

As of March 31, 2026, approximately 96% of our trusts were under the control and custody of five large financial institutions. The U.S. trustees primarily use five managed limited liability companies (LLCs), three merchandise and service trust type and two for the cemetery perpetual care trust type, with independent trustees as custodians. Each financial institution acting as trustee, manages its allocation of trust assets in accordance with the investment policy through the purchase of the appropriate LLCs' units. For those accounts not eligible for participation in the LLCs or where a particular state's regulations contain other investment restrictions, the trustee utilizes institutional mutual funds that comply with our investment policy or with such state restrictions. The U.S. trusts include a modest allocation to alternative investments. These alternative investments are held in vehicles structured as LLCs and are managed by certain trustees. The trusts that are eligible to allocate a portion of their investments to alternative investments purchase units of the respective alternative investment LLCs.

**Investment Structures**

The managed LLCs use the following structures for investments:

*<u>Commingled funds</u>* allow the trusts to access, at a reduced cost, some of the same investment managers and strategies used elsewhere in the portfolios.

*<u>Separately managed accounts</u>* are trusts that utilize separately managed accounts, where appropriate, to reduce the costs to the investment portfolios.

*<u>Mutual funds</u>* employ institutional share class mutual funds where operationally or economically efficient. These mutual funds are utilized to invest in various asset classes including U.S. equities, non-U.S. equities, corporate bonds, government bonds, high yield bonds, and commodities, all of which are governed by guidelines outlined in their individual prospectuses.

**Asset Classes**

*<u>Equity investments</u>* have historically provided long-term capital appreciation in excess of inflation. The trusts have direct investments in individual equity securities primarily in domestic equity portfolios that include large, mid, and small capitalization companies of different investment styles (i.e., growth and value). The majority of the equity allocation is managed by institutional investment managers that specialize in an objective-specific area of expertise. Our equity securities are exposed to market risk; however, we believe these securities are well-diversified. As of March 31, 2026, the largest single equity position represented approximately 1% of the total securities portfolio.

*<u>Fixed income investments</u>* are intended to preserve principal, provide a source of current income, and reduce overall portfolio volatility. The majority of the fixed income allocation for the trusts is invested in institutional share class mutual funds. Where the trusts have direct investments in individual fixed income securities, these are primarily in government and corporate instruments.

Canadian government fixed income securities are investments in Canadian federal and provincial government instruments. In many cases, regulatory restrictions mandate that the funds from the sales of preneed funeral and cemetery contracts sold in certain Canadian jurisdictions must be invested in these instruments.

*<u>Alternative investments</u>* serve to provide high rates of return with reduced volatility and lower correlation to publicly-traded securities. These investments are typically longer term in duration and are diversified by strategy, sector, manager, geography, and vintage year. The investments consist of numerous limited partnerships invested in private equity, private market real estate, energy and natural resources, infrastructure, transportation, and private debt including both distressed debt and mezzanine financing. The trustees that have oversight of their respective alternative LLCs work closely with the investment advisor in making all investment decisions.

**Trust Performance**

During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Standard and Poor's 500 Index decreased 4.3% and the Bloomberg's US Aggregate Bond Index decreased 0.1%. This compares to the SCI trusts that decreased 0.7% during the same period. The SCI trusts have a diversified allocation of approximately 59% equities, 27% fixed income securities, 10% alternative and other investments with the remaining 4% available in money market funds.

Recognized trust fund income (realized and unrealized) related to our preneed trust investments was $56.2 million and $48.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. Recognized trust fund income (realized and unrealized) related to our cemetery perpetual care trust investments was $30.9 million and $26.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

SCI, the trustees, and the investment advisor monitor the capital markets and the trusts on an on-going basis. The trustees, with input from the investment advisor, take prudent action as needed to achieve the investment goals and objectives of the trusts.

**Results of Operations — Three Months Ended March 31, 2026 and 2025** 

Management Summary

In the first three months of 2026, we reported consolidated net income attributable to common stockholders of $135.8 million ($0.97 per diluted share) compared to net income attributable to common stockholders for the same period in 2025 of $142.9 million ($0.98 per diluted share). These results were impacted by certain items including:

In addition to the above items, higher cemetery gross profit combined with a lower share count and a favorable tax rate slightly offset lower funeral gross profit resulting from a decline in funerals performed during the quarter.

(1)<sup>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</sup>We define comparable (or same store) operations as those funeral locations owned by us for the entire period beginning January 1, 2025 and ending March 31, 2026.

(2)<sup>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</sup>We calculate comparable average revenue per service by dividing comparable funeral revenue, excluding general agency revenue, non-funeral home preneed sales revenue, and other revenue to avoid distorting our average of normal funeral services revenue, by the comparable number of funeral services performed during the period.

**Funeral Revenue**

Consolidated revenue from funeral operations was $630.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $639.5 million for the same period in 2025. This $8.9 million decrease in revenue is primarily attributable to a $17.4 million decrease in comparable revenue, partially offset by a $9.7 million increase in revenue contributed by newly constructed and acquired properties.

Comparable revenue from funeral operations was $620.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to $637.6 million for the same period in 2025. The $17.4 million, or 2.7%, decrease was due to a $16.1 million decrease in adjusted comparable funeral revenue and a $1.2 million decrease in core general agency and other revenue, partially offset by a $0.1 million increase in non-funeral home preneed sales revenue.

Adjusted comparable funeral revenue decreased $16.1 million, or 2.9%, primarily due to a 6.0% decrease in comparable funeral services performed reflecting the impact of a strong prior year flu season, which aligns with broader industry and demographic trends. This decrease was partially offset by a 3.4% increase in total average revenue per service. The total comparable cremation rate increased 40 basis points over the prior year to 64.5%.

Core general agency and other revenue decreased $1.2 million. Core general agency revenue benefitted from higher insurance sales production which was more than offset by a lower general agency commission rate quarter over quarter. The current commission rate has now stabilized and is trending in line with expectations.

**Funeral Gross Profit**

Consolidated funeral gross profit decreased $20.0 million, or 13.0%, in the first three months of 2026 compared to the same period in 2025. This decrease is primarily attributable to a $22.8 million, or 14.7%, decrease in comparable funeral gross profit, partially offset by a $2.2 million increase in gross profit contributed by acquired and newly constructed properties. Comparable funeral gross profit decreased $22.8 million to $132.6 million, and the comparable gross profit percentage declined 300 basis points from 24.4% to 21.4%. This is primarily attributable to the $17.4 million decline in comparable funeral revenue applied to our high fixed cost operating structure. This decline was slightly offset by our focus on disciplined controllable cost management, limiting fixed cost growth to approximately 1% versus the prior year quarter.

**Cemetery Revenue**

Consolidated revenue from our cemetery operations increased $31.2 million, or 7.2%, in the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to the same period in 2025, primarily due to a $30.8 million, or 7.1%, increase in comparable cemetery revenue and a $0.4 million increase in revenue contributed by acquired and newly constructed properties.

The $30.8 million increase in comparable cemetery revenue was primarily attributable to a $25.2 million increase in comparable cemetery core revenue and an increase in other revenue of $5.6 million. The increase in core revenue was primarily due to an increase of $20.7 million from higher property revenue and $7.8 million from higher merchandise and service revenue. Total recognized preneed revenue benefited from growth in comparable preneed sales production of $31.6 million, or 9.7%. The increase in other revenue was primarily from an increase in endowment care trust fund income related to higher total return distributions.

**Cemetery Gross Profit**

Consolidated cemetery gross profit increased $15.1 million, or 11.0%, in the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to the same period in 2025. This increase is primarily attributable to a $15.0 million increase in comparable cemetery gross profit. Comparable cemetery gross profit increased from $137.5 million to $152.5 million, and the gross profit percentage increased from 31.6% to 32.8% primarily due to the growth in core revenue mentioned above.

Other Financial Statement Items

**Corporate General and Administrative Expenses**

*Corporate general and administrative expenses* decreased $0.8 million to $43.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026.

**Interest Expense**

*Interest expense* increased $2.5 million to $64.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026. The average balances on our floating rate debt increased approximately $250.0 million, partially offset by lower average floating rates decreasing from 6.8% to 5.8%.

**Provision for Income Taxes**

Our effective tax rate was 25.0% and 26.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The decrease in the effective tax rate in the current period was primarily due to tax benefits from an investment in a renewable energy project recognized in the quarter. The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was higher than the federal statutory tax rate of 21.0% primarily due to state and foreign taxes.

**Weighted Average Shares**

The diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding was 139.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to 145.3 million for the same period in 2025. The decrease primarily reflects the impact of shares repurchased under our share repurchase program.

**Critical Accounting Policies, Recent Accounting Pronouncements, and Accounting Changes**

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Although we base our estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, actual results may differ from the estimates on which our financial statements are prepared at any given point of time. Changes in these estimates could materially affect our consolidated financial position, consolidated results of operations, or cash flows. Significant items that are subject to such estimates and assumptions include revenue and expense accruals, fair value of merchandise and perpetual care trust assets, and the allocation of purchase price to the fair value of assets acquired. Our critical accounting policies have not significantly changed since December 31, 2025 and are disclosed in our Annual Report on <u>[Form 10-K](https://www.sec.gov/ix?doc=/Archives/edgar/data/89089/000162828026007695/sci-20251231.htm)</u> for the year ended December 31, 2025.

Based on our evaluation, our CEO and CFO have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective as of March 31, 2026 and that the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q fairly present, in all material respects, our consolidated financial condition, consolidated results of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented in conformity with US GAAP.

**PERFORMANCE UNIT GRANT** 

**AWARD AGREEMENT**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;This PERFORMANCE UNIT GRANT AWARD AGREEMENT ("Agreement") is made as of February 18, 2026, by and between Service Corporation International, a Texas corporation (the "Company"), and <u>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</u> (the "Employee").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;WHEREAS, the Compensation Committee ("Compensation Committee") of the Board of Directors of the Company has determined that it is to the advantage and interest of the Company to grant to the Employee the performance units grant provided for herein in consideration of services provided by the Employee and to provide focus on the longer-term success of the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;NOW, THEREFORE, the Company and the Employee hereby agree as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.<u>Grant of Award</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;a.Pursuant to the Company's Amended and Restated 2016 Equity Incentive Plan ("Plan"), the Employee is hereby granted as of January 1, 2026, a Performance Unit Grant Award (the "Award"), subject to the terms and conditions set forth below, with respect to <u>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</u> performance units ("Units").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;b.Each Unit shall have a value equal to the value of one share of the Company's common stock.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;c.If a dividend is paid on the Company's common stock during the Performance Cycle, the number of Units listed above shall be increased on the dividend payment date by (i) multiplying the per share dividend amount by the number of Units credited under this Agreement on the dividend payment date, and (ii) dividing that amount by the value of a share of the Company's common stock on the dividend payment date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;d.If the Units covered by this Award become vested in accordance with Section 2 below, the Employee will be entitled to receive, net of applicable withholding or applicable social security taxes, a cash payment representing the product of (i) the value of a share of the Company's common stock on the date of approval of the payment by the Compensation Committee (which value shall be an average of the closing price of Company common stock over the five trading days up to and including the date of approval), multiplied by (ii) the number of Units vested, multiplied by (iii) the Performance Settlement Factor as determined using Exhibit A, attached hereto and made a part of this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;c.<u>Change of Control</u>. In the event of a Change of Control of the Company during the Performance Cycle, the Award will be governed by Section 4.9 of the Plan so long as the Award is honored or assumed or replaced in accordance with Exhibit B attached hereto.

To the extent of any compliance issues under IRC §409A, the Agreement shall be construed in such a manner so as to comply with the requirements of such provision so as to avoid any adverse tax consequences to the Employee.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8.<u>Payment Limitations</u>. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the following limitations shall apply to any calculation of payments under this Agreement:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.<u>Clawback</u>. If (i) the Employee is a Company officer at or above the level of Vice President at the date of this Agreement, (ii) Employee is not covered by a separate incentive award recoupment policy related to the award of Units pursuant to this Agreement, and (iii) it is determined that the Employee has engaged in fraud that causes, in whole or in part, a material adverse restatement of the Company's financial statements, then any unpaid Award shall be forfeited in its entirety. In addition, if (A) an Award has been paid under this Agreement prior to the time of such determination, and (B) the payment occurred at any time after the ending date of the period covered by the incorrect financial statements, then the Employee must repay the Company the entire amount of his or her Award payment. Any determination by the Board of Directors with respect to the foregoing shall be final, subject however to the right of the Employee to contest such determination in any court of competent jurisdiction. The Company agrees to pay promptly as incurred all legal fees and expenses which the Employee may reasonably incur as a result of any such contest; provided however, if the Employee does not prevail in such contest, the Employee will reimburse the Company for all such legal fees and expenses. As used herein, the term "fraud" shall mean the act of knowingly making a false representation of a material fact with the intent to deceive.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.<u>Binding Effect</u>. This Agreement shall be effective only if executed by the Company by means of a manual, typed, or stamped signature, or an e-signature, recorded as a performance unit grant in the minutes of the committee administering the Plan and executed by the Employee by means of a manual signature or an e-signature. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of any successors to the Company and all persons lawfully claiming under the Employee.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• "Comparator Group" is defined as the publicly traded U.S. companies which are included in the reference group as documented in the 2026 Compensation Committee's records and which are in existence at the end of the Performance Cycle.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• "Compensation Committee" means the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of Service Corporation International.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• "IRC §409A" means Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• "National Exchange" is defined as the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) or the National Association of Stock Dealers and Quotes (NASDAQ).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• "Plan Administrator" is Compensation Committee, which may delegate certain elements of administrative responsibility to the Company's CEO or appropriate members of his staff. Any performance goals, performance standards and award determinations must be approved by the Compensation Committee.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• "Performance Cycle" is defined as the three-year period beginning January 1, 2026 and ending December 31, 2029.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• "Performance Settlement Factor" is the applicable percentage set forth in Section B below, which shall be applied to the number of vested units based on the Company's relative TSR ranking within the Comparator Group, as interpolated.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• "Return on Equity" shall be calculated for each fiscal year during the Performance Cycle by dividing (i) the Company's Adjusted Net Income from Continuing Operations, for the fiscal year, by (ii) the Adjusted Average Equity for such fiscal year.

Exhibit A – Page 2

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• "Total Shareholder Return" (TSR) is defined as the rate of return reflecting stock price appreciation plus reinvestment of dividends over the Performance Cycle. Specifically, TSR will be calculated using the following provisions: $100 invested in SCI stock on the first day of the Performance Cycle, with dividends reinvested on each applicable payment date, compared to $100 invested in each of the peer companies in the Comparator Group, with dividend reinvestment on each applicable payment date during the same period. For purposes of this calculation, any determination of reinvested dividends shall be calculated as the sum of the total dividends paid on one share of stock during the Performance Cycle, assuming reinvestment of such dividends in such stock (based on the closing stock price of such stock on the applicable dividend payment date). For the avoidance of doubt, it is intended that the foregoing calculation of reinvested dividend amount shall take into account not only the reinvestment of dividends in a share of stock but also capital appreciation or depreciation in the shares of stock deemed acquired by such reinvestment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• "Unit" is a performance unit which shall have a value equal to the closing price of a share of the Company's common stock.

| **SCI Weighted Average Total Shareholder Return Ranking Relative to Comparator Group at End of Performance Cycle** | **Ranking** | **% of Target Award Paid as Incentive**<br>**(Performance Settlement Factor)** |
| Maximum | 75<sup>th</sup>% or greater | 200% |
|  | 70<sup>th</sup>%ile | 180% |
|  | 65<sup>th</sup>%ile | 160% |
|  | 60<sup>th</sup>%ile | 140% |

| | 30<sup>th</sup>%ile | 40% |
| Threshold | 25<sup>th</sup>%ile | 25% |
| Below Threshold | Less than 25<sup>th</sup>%ile  | 0% |

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Calculation of awards for performance levels between Target and Maximum, or Threshold and Target will be calculated using straight-line interpolation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• If mergers and acquisitions result in a reduction in the number of peer group companies during the cycle, these percentile rankings will reflect the Comparator Group companies still intact at the end of the Performance Cycle.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• As provided in Section 8(a) of the Agreement, in the event SCI's TSR is negative at the end of the Performance Cycle, no payment hereunder will exceed the Target in the schedule above.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• As provided in Section 8(c) of the Agreement, If the Company's Annualized ROE for each fiscal year during the Performance Cycle is less than the weighted average Annualized ROE of the companies that comprise the S&P midcap 400 for each such year during the Performance Cycle (as reported by Bloomberg, or a similar reporting service if Bloomberg is unavailable), then the amount that would otherwise have been paid under Section 1(d) of this Agreement shall be reduced by twenty-five percent (25%).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The Compensation Committee shall have the reasonable discretion to interpret or construe ambiguous, unclear or implied terms applicable to this Agreement, and to make any findings of fact necessary to make a calculation or determination hereunder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A decision made in good faith by the Compensation Committee shall govern and be binding in the event of any dispute regarding a method of calculation of performance or a determination of vesting or forfeiture in connection with the Award or this Agreement.

Exhibit A – Page 4

**EXHIBIT B**

No cancellation, acceleration of exercisability, vesting, cash settlement or other payment shall occur with respect to any Award if the Committee reasonably determines in good faith, prior to the occurrence of a Change of Control, that such Award shall be honored or assumed or replaced therefor (such honored, assumed or replaced Award hereinafter called an "Alternative Award"), by an Employee's employer (or the parent or an Affiliate of such employer) immediately following the Change of Control; provided that any such Alternative Award must:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i)be based on stock which is traded on an established U.S. securities market;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii)provide such Employee with rights and entitlements substantially equivalent to or better than the rights, terms and conditions applicable under such Award, including, but not limited to, an identical or better exercise or vesting schedule and identical or better timing and methods of payment; provided that, if determined by the Committee, any performance-based Awards may be converted into Alternative Awards that vest and become payable solely upon the continued performance of services and in respect of the amount that would have been payable based upon performance through the date of the Change in Control or other measure of performance specified in the Employee's applicable Award Agreement;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii)have substantially equivalent economic value to such Award (determined at the time of the Change of Control and using valuation principles permitted under Treas. Reg. §1.424-1); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv)have terms and conditions which provide that in the event that, during the CoC Protection Period, the Employee's employment or service is involuntarily terminated for any reason (including, but not limited to a termination due to death, Disability or without Cause) or terminated for Good Reason (as defined below), all of such Employee's Awards shall be deemed immediately and fully exercisable, any forfeiture restrictions shall lapse as to each of the Employee's outstanding Restricted Stock Awards, each of the Employee's outstanding Restricted Stock Units and Other Stock-Based Awards shall vest and be payable in full and each such Alternative Award shall be settled for a payment per each share of stock subject to the Alternative Award in cash, in immediately transferable, publicly traded securities or in a combination thereof, in an amount equal to, in the case of an Option or SAR, the excess of the fair market value of such stock on the date of the Employee's termination over the corresponding exercise or base price per share and, in the case of any Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Unit, or Other Stock-Based Award, the fair market value of the number of shares of stock subject or related thereto.

Exhibit B – Page 1

------

For this purpose, an Employee's employment or service shall be deemed to have been terminated for Good Reason if the Employee terminates employment or service within the CoC Protection Period for any of the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)The Company requires the Employee to be relocated more than 50 miles from the current office location, unless the Employee's commute is reduced by the relocation;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)The Company materially reduces the responsibilities, authority or accountability of Employee from the same in effect immediately prior to the Change of Control;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)The Company reduces the base salary, Target Bonus or other compensation program participation of Employee; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)The Company materially reduces the aggregate benefits of Employee.

The "CoC Protection Period" shall mean the period commencing sixty (60) days prior to a Change of Control and ending twenty-four months after the date upon which a Change of Control occurs.
