Notes
to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
March

1)
Basis of Presentation
The
accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Articles 8 and
10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and disclosures required by accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. These financial statements should be read in conjunction
with the consolidated financial statements of the Company and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2021, included in the Company’s
Annual Report on Form 10-K (File Number 000-09341). In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals)
considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2022 are not
necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2022.
The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires
management to adopt policies and make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying
notes. In applying these policies and estimates, the Company makes judgments that frequently require assumptions about matters that are
inherently uncertain. Accordingly, significant estimates used in the preparation of the Company’s financial statements may be subject
to significant adjustments in future periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Material
estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant changes in the near term are those used in determining the value of derivative
assets and liabilities; those used in determining deferred acquisition costs and the value of business acquired; those used in determining
the value of mortgage loans foreclosed to real estate held for investment; those used in determining the liability for future policy
benefits and unearned revenue; those used in determining the estimated future costs for pre-need sales; those used in determining the
value of mortgage servicing rights; those used in determining allowances for loan losses for mortgage loans held for investment; those
used in determining loan loss reserve; and those used in determining deferred tax assets and liabilities. Although some variability is
inherent in these estimates, management believes the amounts provided are fairly stated in all material respects.
COVID-19 .
During 2020, the outbreak of COVID-19 had spread worldwide and was declared a global pandemic by the World Health Organization on March
11, 2020. COVID-19, and its variants, pose a threat to the health and economic well-being of the Company’s employees, customers,
and vendors. The Company continues to closely monitor developments relating to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and assessing its impact
on the Company’s business. The continued uncertainty surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic has had and continues to have a significant
impact on the global economy and financial markets. Governments and businesses have taken numerous measures to try to contain the virus
and its variants, which include the implementation of travel bans, self-imposed quarantine periods, social distancing, and various mask
and vaccine mandates. These measures have disrupted and will continue to disrupt businesses globally. Governments and central banks have
reacted with significant monetary and fiscal interventions designed to stabilize the economic conditions.
Like
most businesses, COVID-19 has impacted the Company, including the temporary adoption of work from home arrangements and a restructuring
of selling techniques for its products and services. The Company also experienced increased expenses for cleaning services of its offices.
Throughout 2021 and the first quarter 2022, the Company continues to adapt to the impact of COVID-19 and its related economic effects.
The Company cannot, with any certainty predict the severity or duration with which COVID-19 will impact the Company’s business,
financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. To the extent the COVID-19 pandemic adversely affects the Company’s
business, financial condition, and results of operations, it may also have the effect of heightening many of the other Company risks.
These uncertainties have the potential to negatively affect the risk of credit default for the issuers of the Company’s fixed maturity
debt securities and individual borrowers with mortgage loans held by the Company.
The
Company has implemented risk management, business continuity plans and has taken preventive measures and other precautions, including
some remote work arrangements. Such measures and precautions have enabled the Company to continue to conduct business.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Accounting
Standards Issued But Not Yet Adopted
ASU
No. 2016-13: “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326)” — Issued in September 2016, ASU 2016-13
amends guidance on reporting credit losses for assets held at amortized cost basis (such as mortgage loans and held to maturity debt
securities) and available for sale debt securities. For assets held at amortized cost basis, Topic 326 eliminates the probable initial
recognition threshold in current GAAP and, instead, requires an entity to reflect its current estimate of all expected credit losses.
The allowance for credit losses is a valuation account that is deducted from the amortized cost basis of the financial assets to present
the net amount expected to be collected. For available for sale debt securities, credit losses should be measured in a manner similar
to current GAAP; however, Topic 326 will require that credit losses be presented as an allowance rather than as a write-down. In October
2019, the FASB proposed an update to ASU No. 2016-13 that would make the ASU effective for the Company on January 1, 2023. The Company
is in the process of evaluating the potential impact of this standard.
ASU
No. 2018-12: “Financial Services – Insurance (Topic 944): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Long-Duration Contracts”
— Issued in August 2018, ASU 2018-12 is intended to improve the timeliness of recognizing changes in the liability for future
policy benefits on traditional long-duration contracts by requiring that assumptions be updated after contract inception and by modifying
the rate used to discount future cash flows. The ASU will improve the accounting for certain market-based options or guarantees associated
with deposit or account balance contracts, simplify amortization of deferred acquisition costs while improving and expanding required
disclosures. In November 2020, the FASB issued an update to ASU No. 2018-12 that made the ASU effective for the Company on January 1,
2025. The Company has made progress in the implementation of the new standard, including the involvement of actuaries, accountants, and
systems specialists. However, the Company has not yet estimated the impact the new guidance will have on the consolidated financial statements.
The
Company has reviewed other recent accounting pronouncements and has determined that they will not significantly impact the Company’s
results of operations or financial position.

There
were 180 securities with fair value of 96.5 % of amortized cost at March 31, 2022. There were 55 securities with fair value of 97.3 % of
amortized cost at December 31, 2021. No additional credit losses have been recognized for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021,
since the increase in unrealized losses is primarily a result of the recent rise in interest rates.
On
a quarterly basis, the Company evaluates its fixed maturity securities classified as available for sale. This evaluation includes a review
of current ratings by the National Association of Insurance Commissions (“NAIC”). Securities with a rating of 1 or 2 are
considered investment grade and are not reviewed for impairment, unless current market or recent company news could lead to a credit
downgrade. Securities with ratings of 3 to 5 are evaluated for impairment. Securities with a rating of 6 are automatically determined
to be impaired and are written down. The evaluation involves an analysis of the securities in relation to historical values, interest
payment history, projected earnings and revenue growth rates as well as a review of the reason for a downgrade in the NAIC rating. Based
on the analysis of a security that is rated 3 to 5, a determination is made whether the security will likely make interest and principal
payments in accordance with the terms of the financial instrument. If it is unlikely that the security will meet contractual obligations,
the loss is considered to be other than temporary, the security is written down to the new anticipated market value and an impairment
loss is recognized.
The
fair values of fixed maturity securities are based on quoted market prices, when available. For fixed maturity securities not actively
traded, fair values are estimated using values obtained from independent pricing services, or in the case of private placements, are
estimated by discounting expected future cash flows using a current market value applicable to the coupon rate, credit and maturity of
the investments.

Mortgage
Loans Held for Investment
Mortgage
loans held for investment consist of first and second mortgages. The mortgage loans bear interest at rates ranging from 2.0 % to 10.5 %,
maturity dates range from nine months to 30 years and are secured by real estate. Concentrations of credit risk arise when a number of
mortgage loan debtors have similar economic characteristics that would cause their ability to meet contractual obligations to be similarly
affected by changes in economic conditions. Although the Company has a diversified mortgage loan portfolio consisting of residential
mortgages, commercial loans and residential construction loans and requires collateral on all real estate exposures, a substantial portion
of its debtors’ ability to honor obligations is reliant on the economic stability of the geographic region in which the debtors
do business. At March 31, 2022, the Company had 75 %, 6 %, 4 %, 4 %, 3 % and 3 % of its mortgage loans from borrowers located in the states
of Utah, Florida, Texas, Nevada, California, and Arizona, respectively. At December 31, 2021, the Company had 70 %, 7 %, 5 %, 4 %, 4 % and
2 % of its mortgage loans from borrowers located in the states of Utah, Florida, California, Texas, Nevada and Arizona, respectively.
Mortgage
loans held for investment are carried at their unpaid principal balances adjusted for net deferred fees, charge-offs, premiums, discounts
and the related allowance for loan losses. Interest income is included in net investment income on the condensed consolidated statements
of earnings and is recognized when earned. The Company defers related material loan origination fees, net of related direct loan origination
costs, and amortizes the net fees over the term of the loans. Origination fees are included in net investment income on the condensed
consolidated statements of earnings.
Mortgage
loans are secured by the underlying property and require an appraisal at the time of underwriting and funding. Generally, the Company
will fund a loan not to exceed 80% of the loan’s collateral fair market value. Amounts over 80% will require additional collateral
or mortgage insurance by an approved third-party insurer.
The
Company provides for losses on its mortgage loans held for investment through an allowance for loan losses (a contra-asset account).
The allowance is comprised of two components. The first component is an allowance for collectively evaluated impairment that is based
upon the Company’s historical experience in collecting similar receivables. The second component is based upon individual evaluation
of loans that are determined to be impaired. As a practical expedient, upon determining impairment, the Company establishes an individual
impairment allowance based upon an assessment of the fair value of the underlying collateral. In addition, when a mortgage loan is past
due more than 90 days, the Company does not accrue any interest income. When a loan becomes delinquent, the Company proceeds to foreclose
on the real estate and all expenses for foreclosure are expensed as incurred. Once foreclosed, an adjustment for the lower of cost or
fair value is made, if necessary, and the amount is classified as real estate held for investment or held for sale.

Investments (Continued)
The
allowance for losses on mortgage loans held for investment could change based on changes in the value of the underlying collateral, the
performance status of the loans, or the Company’s actual collection experience. The actual losses could change, in the near term,
from the established allowance, based upon the occurrence or non-occurrence of these events.
For
purposes of determining the allowance for losses, the Company has segmented its mortgage loans held for investment by loan type. The
Company’s loan types are commercial, residential, and residential construction. The inherent risks within the portfolio vary depending
upon the loan type as follows:
Commercial
- Underwritten in accordance with the Company’s policies to determine the borrower’s ability to repay the obligation
as agreed. Commercial loans are made primarily based on the underlying collateral supporting the loan. Accordingly, the repayment of
a commercial loan depends primarily on the collateral and its ability to generate income and secondary on the borrower’s (or guarantors)
ability to repay.
Residential
— Secured by family dwelling units. These loans are secured by first and second mortgages on the unit. The borrower’s
ability to repay is sensitive to the life events and general economic condition of the region. Where loan to values exceed 80%, the loan
is generally guaranteed by private mortgage insurance, FHA or VA.
Residential
construction (including land acquisition and development) – Underwritten in accordance with the Company’s underwriting
policies which include a financial analysis of the builders, borrowers (guarantors), construction cost estimates, and independent appraisal
valuations. These loans will rely on the value associated with the project upon completion. These cost and valuation estimates may be
inaccurate. Construction loans generally involve the disbursement of substantial funds over a short period of time with repayment substantially
dependent upon the success of the completed project and the ability of the borrower to secure long-term financing. Additionally, land
is underwritten according to the Company’s policies, which include independent appraisal valuations as well as the estimated value
associated with the land upon completion of development into finished lots. These cost and valuation estimates may be inaccurate. These
loans are considered to be of a higher risk than other mortgage loans due to their ultimate repayment being sensitive to general economic
conditions, availability of long-term or construction financing, and interest rate sensitivity.

Risk Profile Based on Performance Status
The
Company’s mortgage loan held for investment portfolio is monitored based on performance of the loans. Monitoring a mortgage loan
increases when the loan is delinquent or earlier if there is an indication of impairment. The Company defines non-performing mortgage
loans as loans 90 days or greater delinquent or on non-accrual status.

Non-Accrual
Mortgage Loans Held for Investment
Once
a loan is past due 90 days, it is the policy of the Company to end the accrual of interest income on the loan and write off any interest
income that had been accrued. Payments received for loans on a non-accrual status are recognized on a cash basis. Interest income recognized
from any payments received for loans on a non-accrual status was immaterial. Accrual of interest resumes if a loan is brought current.
Interest not accrued on these loans totals approximately $ 254,000 and $ 236,000 as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

Loss Reserve
When
a repurchase demand corresponding to a mortgage loan previously held for sale and sold to a third-party investor is received from a third-party
investor, the relevant data is reviewed and captured so that an estimated future loss can be calculated. The key factors that are used
in the estimated loss calculation are as follows: (i) lien position, (ii) payment status, (iii) claim type, (iv) unpaid principal balance,
(v) interest rate, and (vi) validity of the demand. Other data is captured and is useful for management purposes; the actual estimated
loss is generally based on these key factors. The Company conducts its own review upon the receipt of a repurchase demand. In many instances,
the Company is able to resolve the issues relating to the repurchase demand by the third-party investor without having to make any payments
to the investor.

The
Company maintains reserves for estimated losses on current production volumes. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, $ 306,026 in
reserves were added at a rate of 2.9 basis points per loan, the equivalent of $ 290 per $ 1,000,000 in loans originated. This is a decrease
over the three months ended March 31, 2021, when reserves of $ 660,663 were added at a rate of 4.5 basis points per loan originated, the
equivalent of $ 450 per $ 1,000,000 in loans originated. The unique nature of COVID-19 creates significant difficulty for forecasting potential
future losses. The Company will continue to monitor data and economic conditions in order to maintain adequate loss reserves on current
production. Thus, the Company believes that the final loan loss reserve as of March 31, 2022, represents its best estimate for adequate
loss reserves on loans sold.

Stock Compensation Plans
The
Company has two fixed option plans (the “2013 Plan” and the “2014 Director Plan”). Compensation expense for options
issued of $ 271,747 and $ 39,153 has been recognized for these plans for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
As of March 31, 2022, the total unrecognized compensation expense related to the options issued was $ 610,889 .
The
fair value of each option granted is estimated on the date of grant using the Black Scholes Option Pricing Model. The Company estimates
the expected life of the options using the simplified method. Future volatility is estimated based upon the weighted historical volatility
of the Company’s Class A common stock over a period equal to the expected life of the options. The risk-free interest rate for
the expected life of the options is based upon the Federal Reserve Board’s daily interest rates in effect at the time of the grant.

7) Business
Segment Information
Description
of Products and Services by Segment
The
Company has three reportable business segments: life insurance, cemetery and mortuary, and mortgage. The Company’s life insurance
segment consists of life insurance premiums and operating expenses from the sale of insurance products sold by the Company’s independent
agency force and net investment income derived from investing policyholder and segment surplus funds. The Company’s cemetery and
mortuary segment consists of revenues and operating expenses from the sale of at-need cemetery and mortuary merchandise and services
at its mortuaries and cemeteries, pre-need sales of cemetery spaces after collection of 10% or more of the purchase price and the net
investment income from investing segment surplus funds. The Company’s mortgage segment consists of fee income and expenses from
the originations of residential mortgage loans and interest earned and interest expenses from warehousing loans held for sale.
Measurement
of Segment Profit or Loss and Segment Assets
The
accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those described in the Significant Accounting Principles of the Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2021. Intersegment revenues are recorded at cost plus an agreed upon intercompany profit, and are eliminated
upon consolidation.
Factors
Management Used to Identify the Enterprise’s Reportable Segments
The
Company’s reportable segments are business units that are managed separately due to the different products provided and the need
to report separately to the various regulatory jurisdictions. The Company regularly reviews the quantitative thresholds and other criteria
to determine when other business segments may need to be reported.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
GAAP
defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal
or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. GAAP also specifies a fair
value hierarchy based upon the observability of inputs used in valuation techniques. Observable inputs (highest level) reflect market
data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs (lowest level) reflect internally developed market assumptions. Fair
value measurements are classified under the following hierarchy:
Level
1: Financial assets and financial liabilities whose values are based on unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or
liabilities in an active market that the Company can access.
Level
2: Financial assets and financial liabilities whose values are based on the following:
a)
Quoted
prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets;
b)
Quoted
prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in non-active markets; or
c)
Valuation
models whose inputs are observable, directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.
Level
3: Financial assets and financial liabilities whose values are based on prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that
are both unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. These inputs may reflect the Company’s estimates
of the assumptions that market participants would use in valuing the financial assets and financial liabilities.
The
Company utilizes a combination of third-party valuation service providers, brokers, and internal valuation models to determine fair value.
The
following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating the fair value disclosures related to significant financial
instruments.
The
items shown under Level 1 and Level 2 are valued as follows:
Fixed
Maturity Securities Available for Sale : The fair values of fixed maturity securities are based on quoted market prices, when
available. For fixed maturity securities not actively traded, fair values are estimated using values obtained from independent pricing
services, or in the case of private placements (considered Level 3 financial assets), are estimated by discounting expected future cash
flows using a current market value applicable to the coupon rate, credit and maturity of the investments.
Equity
Securities : The fair values for equity securities are based on quoted market prices.
Restricted
Assets : A portion of these assets include mutual funds and equity securities and fixed maturity securities that have quoted market
prices that are used to determine fair value. Also included are cash and cash equivalents and participations in mortgage loans. The carrying
amounts reported in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets for these financial instruments approximate their fair values
due to their short-term nature.
Cemetery
Perpetual Care Trust Investments : A portion of these assets include equity securities and fixed maturity securities that have
quoted market prices that are used to determine fair value. Also included are cash and cash equivalents. The carrying amounts reported
in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets for these financial instruments approximate their fair values due to their
short-term nature.
Call
and Put Option Derivatives : The fair values for call and put options are based on quoted market prices.
Additionally,
there were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments (Continued)
The
items shown under Level 3 are valued as follows:
Loans
Held for Sale : The Company elected the fair value option for loans held for sale. The fair value is based on quoted market prices,
when available. When a quoted market price is not readily available, the Company uses the market price from its last sale of similar
assets. Fair value is often difficult to determine and may contain significant unobservable inputs.
Loan
Commitments and Forward Sale Commitments : The Company’s mortgage segment enters into loan commitments with potential borrowers
and forward sale commitments to sell loans to third-party investors. The Company also uses a hedging strategy for these transactions.
A loan commitment binds the Company to lend funds to a qualified borrower at a specified interest rate and within a specified period
of time, generally up to 30 days after issuance of the loan commitment. Loan commitments are defined to be derivatives under GAAP and
are recognized at fair value on the consolidated balance sheets with changes in their fair values recorded in current earnings.
The
Company estimates the fair value of a loan commitment based on the change in estimated fair value of the underlying mortgage loan, quoted
MBS prices, estimates of the fair value of mortgage servicing rights, and an estimate of the probability that the mortgage loan will
fund within the terms of the commitment. The change in fair value of the underlying mortgage loan is measured from the date the loan
commitment is issued. Following issuance, the value of a mortgage loan commitment can be either positive or negative depending upon the
change in value of the underlying mortgage loans. Fallout rates and other factors from the Company’s recent historical data are
used to estimate the quantity and value of mortgage loans that will fund within the terms of the commitments.
Impaired
Mortgage Loans Held for Investment : The Company believes that the fair value of these nonperforming loans will approximate the
unpaid principal balance expected to be recovered based on the fair value of the underlying collateral. For residential and commercial
properties, the collateral value is estimated by obtaining an independent appraisal. The appraisal typically considers area comparables
and property condition as well as potential rental income that could be generated (particularly for commercial properties). For residential
construction loans, the collateral is typically incomplete, so fair value is estimated as the replacement cost using data from a provider
of building cost information to the real estate construction.
Impaired
Real Estate Held for Investment : The Company believes that in an orderly market, fair value will approximate the replacement
cost of a home and the rental income provides a cash flow stream for investment analysis. The Company believes the highest and best use
of the properties are as income producing assets since it is the Company’s intent to hold the properties as rental properties,
matching the income from the investment in rental properties with the funds required for future estimated policy claims.
It
should be noted that for replacement cost, when determining the fair value of real estate held for investment, the Company uses a provider
of building cost information to the real estate construction industry. For the investment analysis, the Company uses market data based
upon its real estate operation experience and projected the present value of the net rental income over seven years. The Company also
considers area comparable properties and property condition when determining fair value.
In
addition to this analysis performed by the Company, the Company depreciates Real Estate Held for Investment. This depreciation reduces
the book value of these properties and lessens the exposure to the Company from further deterioration in real estate values.
Mortgage
Servicing Rights : The Company initially recognizes Mortgage Servicing Rights (“MSRs”) at their estimated fair values
derived from the net cash flows associated with the servicing contracts, where the Company assumes the obligation to service the loan
in the sale transaction.

The
methods, assumptions and significant valuation techniques and inputs used to estimate the fair value of these financial instruments are
summarized as follows:
Mortgage
Loans Held for Investment : The estimated fair value of the Company’s mortgage loans held for investment is determined using
various methods. The Company’s mortgage loans are grouped into three categories: Residential, Residential Construction and Commercial.
When estimating the expected future cash flows, it is assumed that all loans will be held to maturity, and any loans that are non-performing
are evaluated individually for impairment.
Residential
– The estimated fair value is determined through a combination of discounted cash flows (estimating expected future cash flows
of payments and discounting them using current interest rates from single family mortgages) and considering pricing of similar loans
that were sold recently.
Residential
Construction – These loans are primarily short in maturity. Accordingly, the estimated fair value is determined to be the carrying
value.
Commercial
– The estimated fair value is determined by estimating expected future cash flows of payments and discounting them using current
interest rates for commercial mortgages.
Policy
Loans : The carrying amounts reported in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet for these financial instruments
approximate their fair values because they are fully collateralized by the cash surrender value of the underlying insurance policies.
Insurance
Assignments, Net : These investments are primarily short in maturity, accordingly, the carrying amounts reported in the accompanying
condensed consolidated balance sheet for these financial instruments approximate their fair values.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments (Continued)
Bank
and Other Loans Payable : The carrying amounts reported in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet for these financial
instruments approximate their fair values due to their relatively short-term maturities and variable interest rates.
Policyholder
Account Balances and Future Policy Benefits-Annuities : Future policy benefit reserves for interest-sensitive insurance products
are computed under a retrospective deposit method and represent policy account balances before applicable surrender charges. Policy benefits
and claims that are charged to expense include benefit claims incurred in the period in excess of related policy account balances. Interest
crediting rates for interest-sensitive insurance products ranged from 1.5% to 6.5%. The fair values for these investment-type insurance
contracts are estimated based on the present value of liability cash flows. The fair values for the Company’s insurance contracts
other than investment-type contracts are not required to be disclosed. However, the fair values of liabilities under all insurance contracts
are taken into consideration in the Company’s overall management of interest rate risk, such that the Company’s exposure
to changing interest rates is minimized through the matching of investment maturities with amounts due under insurance contracts.
9)
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
The
Company records an allowance and recognizes an expense for potential losses from other investments and receivables in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles.
Receivables
are the result of cemetery and mortuary operations, mortgage loan operations and life insurance operations. The allowance is based upon
the Company’s historical experience for collectively evaluated impairment. Other allowances are based upon receivables individually
evaluated for impairment. Collectability of the cemetery and mortuary receivables is significantly influenced by current economic conditions.
The critical issues that impact recovery of mortgage loan operations are interest rate risk, loan underwriting, new regulations and the
overall economy

Derivative Instruments
Mortgage
Banking Derivatives
Loan
Commitments
The
Company is exposed to price risk due to the potential impact of changes in interest rates on the values of loan commitments from the
time a loan commitment is made to an applicant to the time the loan that would result from the exercise of that loan commitment is funded.
Managing price risk is complicated by the fact that the ultimate percentage of loan commitments that will be exercised (i.e., the number
of loans that will be funded) fluctuates. The probability that a loan will not be funded or the loan application is denied or withdrawn
within the terms of the commitment is driven by a number of factors, particularly the change, if any, in mortgage rates following the
issuance of the loan commitment.
In
general, the probability of funding increases if mortgage rates rise and decreases if mortgage rates fall. This is due primarily to the
relative attractiveness of current mortgage rates compared to the applicant’s committed rate. The probability that a loan will
not be funded within the terms of the mortgage loan commitment also is influenced by the source of the applications (retail, broker or
correspondent channels), proximity to rate lock expiration, purpose for the loan (purchase or refinance), product type and the application
approval status. The Company has developed fallout estimates using historical data that take into account all of the variables, as well
as renegotiations of rate and point commitments that tend to occur when mortgage rates fall. These fallout estimates are used to estimate
the number of loans that the Company expects to be funded within the terms of the loan commitments and are updated periodically to reflect
the most current data.

The
Company estimates the fair value of a loan commitment based on the change in estimated fair value of the underlying mortgage loan, quoted
mortgage-backed securities (“MBS”) prices, estimates of the fair value of mortgage servicing rights, and an estimate of the
probability that the mortgage loan will fund within the terms of the commitment net of estimated commission expense. The change in fair
value of the underlying mortgage loan is measured from the date the loan commitment is issued and is shown net of related expenses. Following
issuance, the value of a loan commitment can be either positive or negative depending upon the change in value of the underlying mortgage
loans. Fallout rates and other factors from the Company’s recent historical data are used to estimate the quantity and value of
mortgage loans that will fund within the terms of the commitments.
Forward
Sale Commitments
The
Company utilizes forward commitments to economically hedge the price risk associated with its outstanding mortgage loan commitments.
A forward commitment protects the Company from losses on sales of the loans arising from exercise of the loan commitments. Management
expects these types of commitments will experience changes in fair value opposite to changes in fair value of the loan commitments, thereby
reducing earnings volatility related to the recognition in earnings of changes in the values of the commitments.
The
net changes in fair value of loan commitments and forward sale commitments are shown in current earnings as a component of mortgage fee
income on the consolidated statements of earnings. Mortgage banking derivatives are shown in other assets and other liabilities and accrued
expenses on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Call
and Put Options Derivatives
The
Company uses a strategy of selling “out of the money” call options on its equity securities as a source of revenue. The options
give the purchaser the right to buy from the Company specified equity securities at a set price up to a pre-determined date in the future.
The Company uses the strategy of selling put options as a means of generating cash or purchasing equity securities at lower than current
market prices. The Company receives an immediate payment of cash for the value of the option and establishes a liability for the fair
value of the option. The liability for options is adjusted to fair value at each reporting date. In the event a call option is exercised,
the Company sells the equity security at a favorable price enhanced by the value of the option that was sold. If the option expires unexercised,
the Company recognizes a gain from the expired option. In the event a put option is exercised, the Company acquires an equity security
at the strike price of the option reduced by the value received from the sale of the put option. The equity security is then treated
as a normal equity security in the Company’s portfolio. The net changes in the fair value of call and put options are shown in
current earnings as a component of realized gains (losses) on investments and other assets. Call and put options are shown in other liabilities
and accrued expenses on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Reinsurance, Commitments and Contingencies
Reinsurance
The
Company follows the procedure of reinsuring risks in excess of a specified limit, which ranges from $ 25,000 to $ 100,000 . The Company
is liable for these amounts in the event such reinsurers are unable to pay their portion of the claims. The Company has also assumed
insurance from other companies.
Mortgage
Loan Loss Settlements
Future
loan losses can be extremely difficult to estimate. However, the Company believes that the Company’s reserve methodology and its
current practice of property preservation allow it to estimate its potential losses on loans sold. See Note 4 to the condensed consolidated
financial statements for additional information about the Company’s loan loss reserve.
Debt
Covenants for Mortgage Warehouse Lines of Credit
The
Company, through its subsidiary SecurityNational Mortgage, has a $ 100,000,000 line of credit with Wells Fargo Bank N.A. The agreement
charges interest at the 1-Month LIBOR rate plus 2.1% and matures on June 9, 2022 . SecurityNational Mortgage is required to comply with
covenants for adjusted tangible net worth, unrestricted cash balance, the ratio of indebtedness to adjusted tangible net worth, and the
liquidity overhead coverage ratio, and a quarterly gross profit of at least $ 1.00 .
The
Company, through its subsidiary SecurityNational Mortgage, has a line of credit with Texas Capital Bank N.A. This agreement with the
bank allows SecurityNational Mortgage to borrow up to $ 100,000,000 for the sole purpose of funding mortgage loans. The agreement charges
interest at the 1-Month LIBOR rate plus 2% and matures on August 9, 2022 . The Company is required to comply with covenants for adjusted
tangible net worth, unrestricted cash balance, and minimum combined pre-tax income (excluding any changes in the fair value of mortgage
servicing rights) of at least $ 1.00 on a rolling four-quarter basis.
The

The
Company through its subsidiary SecurityNational Mortgage, has a line of credit with U.S Bank. This agreement with the bank allows SecurityNational
Mortgage to borrow up to $ 100,000,000 for the sole purpose of funding mortgage loans. The agreement charges interest at the 1-Month LIBOR
rate plus 2.0% and matures on June 4, 2022 .
The
Company is required to comply with covenants for adjusted tangible net worth, unrestricted cash balance, and minimum combined pre-tax
income (excluding any changes in the fair value of mortgage servicing rights) of at least $ 1.00 on a rolling twelve months.
The
agreements for warehouse lines include cross default provisions in that a covenant violation under one agreement constitutes a covenant
violation under the other agreement. As of March 31, 2022, the Company was in compliance with all debt covenants.
Other
Contingencies and Commitments
The
Company has entered into commitments to fund construction and land development loans and has also provided financing for land acquisition
and development. As of March 31, 2022, the Company’s commitments were approximately $ 335,619,000 for these loans, of which $ 196,848,609
had been funded. The Company will advance funds once the work has been completed and an independent inspection is made. The maximum loan
commitment ranges between 50 % and 80 % of appraised value. The Company receives fees and interest for these loans and the interest rate
is generally fixed 5.25 % to 8.00 % per annum. Maturities range between six and eighteen months.
The
Company belongs to a captive insurance group for certain casualty insurance, worker compensation and liability programs. Insurance reserves
are maintained relative to these programs. The level of exposure from catastrophic events is limited by the purchase of stop-loss and
aggregate liability reinsurance coverage. When estimating the insurance liabilities and related reserves, the captive insurance management
considers a number of factors, which include historical claims experience, demographic factors, severity factors and valuations provided
by independent third-party actuaries. If actual claims or adverse development of loss reserves occurs and exceed these estimates, additional
reserves may be required. The estimation process contains uncertainty since captive insurance management must use judgment to estimate
the ultimate cost that will be incurred to settle reported claims and unreported claims for incidents incurred but not reported as of
the balance sheet date.
The
Company is a defendant in various other legal actions arising from the normal conduct of business. Management believes that none of the
actions, if adversely determined, will have a material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations. Based
on management’s assessment and legal counsel’s representations concerning the likelihood of unfavorable outcomes, no amounts
have been accrued for the above claims in the consolidated financial statements.
The
Company is not a party to any other material legal proceedings outside the ordinary course of business or to any other legal proceedings,
which, if adversely determined, would have a material adverse effect on its financial condition or results of operations.

Mortgage Servicing Rights
The
Company initially records these MSRs at fair value as discussed in Note 8.
After
being initially recorded at fair value, MSRs backed by mortgage loans are accounted for using the amortization method. Amortization expense
is included in other expenses on the consolidated statements of earnings. MSR amortization is determined by amortizing the MSR balance
in proportion to, and over the period of the estimated future net servicing income of the underlying financial assets.
The
Company periodically assesses MSRs for impairment. Impairment occurs when the current fair value of the MSR falls below the asset’s
carrying value (carrying value is the amortized cost reduced by any related valuation allowance). If MSRs are impaired, the impairment
is recognized in current-period earnings and the carrying value of the MSRs is adjusted through a valuation allowance.
Management
periodically reviews the various loan strata to determine whether the value of the MSRs in a given stratum is impaired and likely to
recover. When management deems recovery of the value to be unlikely in the foreseeable future, a write-down of the cost of the MSRs for
that stratum to its estimated recoverable value is charged to the valuation allowance.
The

Income Taxes
The
Company’s overall effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 was 27.3 % and 25.8 %, respectively, which
resulted in a provision for income taxes of $ 1,214,798 and $ 4,226,340 , respectively. The Company’s effective tax rates differ from
the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21 % partially due to its provision for state income taxes. The increase in the effective tax rate
when compared to the prior year is partially due to a larger increase to the valuation allowance in the current period when compared
to the prior period year.
Interim
income taxes are based on an estimated annualized effective tax rate applied to the respective quarterly periods, adjusted for discrete
tax items in the period in which they occur. Although the Company believes its tax estimates are reasonable, the Company can make no
assurance that the final tax outcome of these matters will not be different from that which it has reflected in its historical income
tax provisions and accruals.

Revenues from Contracts with Customers
The
Company reports revenues from contracts with customers pursuant to ASC No. 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers .
Information
about Performance Obligations and Contract Balances
The
Company’s cemetery and mortuary segment sells a variety of goods and services to customers in both at-need and pre-need situations.
Due to the timing of the fulfillment of the obligation, revenue is deferred until that obligation is fulfilled.
The
Company’s three types of future obligations are as follows:
Pre-need
Merchandise and Service Revenue : All pre-need merchandise and service revenue is deferred and the funds are placed in trust until
the need arises, the merchandise is received or the service is performed. The trust is then relieved, and the revenue and commissions
are recognized.
At-need
Specialty Merchandise Revenue : At-need specialty merchandise revenue consists of customizable merchandise ordered from a manufacturer
such as markers and bases. When specialty merchandise is ordered, it can take time to manufacture and deliver the product. Revenue is
deferred until the at-need merchandise is received.
Deferred
Pre-need Land Revenue : Deferred pre-need revenue and corresponding commissions are deferred until 10 % of the funds are received
from the customer through regular monthly payments. Deferred pre-need land revenue is not placed in trust.
Complete
payment of the contract does not constitute fulfillment of the performance obligation. Goods or services are deferred until such time
the service is performed or merchandise is received. Pre-need contracts are required to be paid in full prior to a customer using a good
or service from a pre-need contract. Goods and services from pre-need contracts can be transferred when paid in full from one owner to
another. In such cases, the Company will act as an agent in transferring the requested goods and services. A transfer of goods and services
does not fulfill an obligation and revenue remains deferred.
