Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

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‑Q10-Q and Articles 8 and 10 of Regulation S‑X.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, 2016,2022, included in the Company'sCompany’s Annual Report on Form 10-K/A (file number10-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 nine monthsthree and six month periods ended SeptemberJune 30, 20172023 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2017. The presentation of certain amounts in the prior year have been reclassified to conform to the 2017 presentation. The Company reclassified certain amounts from other assets to receivables, from receivables to other liabilities, from other assets to other liabilities, from equity securities to other investments, from other liabilities to mortgage loans held for investment, from net investment income to mortgage fee income, and from mortgage fee income to net investment income. These reclassifications had no impact on net earnings or stockholders' equity. Additionally, see the discussion regarding correction of errors in Notes 21 and 22 included in the Company's Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2016.


2023.

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;investment or sale; 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;credit losses; 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.

Banking Environment.

On March 10, 2023 and March 12, 2023, Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank were placed in receivership with the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”). Normal banking activities resumed shortly thereafter. On May 1, 2023, First Republic bank was placed in receivership with the FDIC and was immediately purchased by a national bank.

The Company does not maintain any deposit or other accounts or credit facilities with Silicon Valley Bank, Signature Bank or First Republic Bank. The Company may periodically transfer funds to these banks to pay for services rendered by third party vendors that continue to maintain banking relationships with these banks. The Company continues to monitor the banking industry and its relationships with regional and community banks.

2) Recent Accounting Pronouncements


ASU No. 2017-01: "Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business" – Issued

Accounting Standards Adopted in January 2017, ASU 2017-01 intends to clarify the definition of a business with the objective of adding guidance to assist entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. Under the current implementation guidance in Topic 805, there are three elements of a business: inputs, processes, and outputs. While an integrated set of assets and activities, collectively referred to as a "set," that is a business usually has outputs, outputs are not required to be present. ASU 2017-01 provides a screen to determine when a set is not a business. The screen requires that when substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired (or disposed of) is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identifiable assets, the set is not a business. ASU 2017-01 will be effective for the Company on January 1, 2018.   While the Company's acquisitions have historically been classified as either business combinations or asset acquisitions, certain acquisitions that were classified as business combinations by the Company likely would have been considered asset acquisitions under the new standard. As a result, transaction costs are more likely to be capitalized since the Company expects some of its future acquisitions to be classified as asset acquisitions under this new standard. In addition, goodwill that was previously allocated to businesses that were sold or held for sale will no longer be allocated and written off upon sale if future sales were deemed to be sales of assets and not businesses.


2023

ASU No. 2016-13: "Financial“Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326)" Issued in JuneSeptember 2016, ASU 2016-13 amends guidance on reporting credit losses for assets held at amortized cost basis (such as mortgage loans held for investment 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 generally accepted accounting principles ("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 requirerequires that credit losses be presented as an allowance rather than as a write-down. The new authoritative guidanceCompany adopted this standard on January 1, 2023, and after a review of the affected assets, decreased the opening balance of retained earnings in stockholders’ equity by $671,506 on January 1, 2023. The allowances for credit losses increased (decreased) by the following amounts.

Schedule of Increased (Decrease) in Allowances for Credit Losses Upon ASU

  Amount 
Mortgage loans held for investment:    
Residential $(192,607)
Residential construction  301,830 
Commercial  555,807 
Total  665,030

Accounting Standards Issued But Not Yet Adopted

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 effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company isintended to improve the timeliness of recognizing changes in the process of evaluatingliability for future policy benefits on traditional long-duration contracts by requiring that assumptions be updated after contract inception and by modifying the potential impact of this standard.

2)    Recent Accounting Pronouncements (Continued)
ASU No. 2016-02: "Leases (Topic 842)" - Issued in February 2016, ASU 2016-02 supersedes the requirements in ASC Topic 840, "Leases", and was issued to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements.discount future cash flows. The new authoritative guidancestandard is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company is in the process of evaluating the potential impact of this standard, which is not expected to be material to the Company's results of operations but will have an effect on the balance sheet presentation for leased assets and obligations.

ASU No. 2016-01: "Financial Instruments – Overall (Topic 825-10)" – Issued in January 2016, ASU 2016-01 changesaimed at improving the accounting for non-consolidated equity investments that are not accounted for undercertain 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 equity method of accounting by requiring changes in fair valueFASB issued an update to be recognized in income. Under current guidance, changes in fair value for investments of this nature are recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income as a component of stockholders' equity.  Additionally, ASU 2016-01 simplifies the impairment assessment of equity investments without readily determinable fair values; requires entities to use the exit price when estimating the fair value of financial instruments; and modifies various presentation disclosure requirements for financial instruments. The Company holds equity securities classified as available for sale securities that are currently measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized through other comprehensive income. Upon adoption of ASU 2016-01 the Company will be required to recognize changes in the fair value of these equity securities through earnings, thus increasing the volatility of the Company's earnings. However, adoption of this standard will not significantly affect the Company's comprehensive income or stockholders' equity. This new authoritative guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with the cumulative effect of the adoption made to the balance sheet as of the date of adoption. Thus, the adoption will result in a reclassification of the related accumulated net unrealized gains (losses) currently included in accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings. See Note 3 for details regarding the Company's equity securities currently classified as available for sale. The Company will adopt this standard beginning January 1, 2018.

ASU No. 2014-09: "Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)" - Issued in May 2014, ASU 2014-09 supersedes2018-12 that requires the revenue recognition requirements in ASC Topic 605, "Revenue Recognition". ASU 2014-09 clarifies the principles for recognizing revenue in order to improve comparability of revenue recognition practices across entities and industries. ASU 2014-09 provides guidance intended to assist in the identification of contracts with customers and separate performance obligations within those contracts, the determination and allocation of the transaction price to those identified performance obligations and the recognition of revenue when a performance obligation has been satisfied. ASU 2014-09 also requires disclosures regarding the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenues and cash flows from contracts with customers. Insurance contracts are excluded from the scope of this new guidance.

Upon adoption, ASU 2014-09 provides for transition through either a full retrospective approach requiring the restatement of all presented prior periods or a modified retrospective approach, which allows the new recognition standard to be applied to only those contracts that are not completed atadopted by the dateCompany commencing on January 1, 2025. The Company has made progress in the implementation of transition. If the modified retrospective approach is adopted, a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings is performed with additional disclosures requirednew standard, including the amount by which each line item is affected by the transition as compared to the guidance in effect before adoptioninvolvement of actuaries, accountants, and an explanation of the reasons for significant changes in these amounts. The Company intends to adopt ASU 2014-09 using the modified retrospective method. The Company does not expect to record a cumulative effect adjustment to its beginning retained earnings as a result of adoption of ASU 2014-09.

The Company's revenues from contracts with customers that are subject to ASU 2014-09 include revenues on mortuary and cemetery contracts. The recognition and measurement of these items is not expected to change as a result of the Company's adoption of ASU 2014-09 and thussystems specialists. However, the Company doeshas not expect thatyet estimated the adoption of ASU 2014-09 will significantly impact the Company's results of operations ornew guidance will have on the consolidated financial position but is still in the process of evaluating the final impact, including the potential impact on disclosures of contracts with customers. The new authoritative guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company will adopt this standard beginning January 1, 2018.

On a quarterly basis, the Company evaluates its fixed maturity securities held to maturity. 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. 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. Impairment losses are treated as credit losses as the Company holds fixed maturity securities to maturity unless the underlying conditions have changed in the financial instrument to require an impairment.

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. The table below sets forth unrealized losses by duration with the fair value of the related fixed maturity securities.

Evaluation of Allowance for Credit Losses

See Note 2 regarding the adoption of ASU 2016-13.

On a quarterly basis, the Company evaluates its fixed maturity securities classified as available for sale to identify any potential credit losses. 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 credit loss, unless current market or recent company news could lead to a credit downgrade. Securities with ratings of 3 to 5 are evaluated for credit loss. Securities with a rating of 6 are automatically determined to be impaired and a credit loss is recognized in earnings. The evaluation involves assessing all facts and circumstances surrounding each security including, but not limited 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.

Where the decline in fair value of fixed maturity securities is attributable to changes in market interest rates or to factors such as market volatility, liquidity and spread widening, and the Company anticipates recovery of all contractual or expected cash flows, the Company does not consider these securities to have credit loss because the Company does not intend to sell these securities and it is not more likely than not the Company will be required to sell these securities before a recovery of amortized cost, which may be at maturity.

If the Company intends to sell a fixed maturity security or if it is more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell a security before recovery of its amortized cost basis, a credit loss has occurred and the difference between the amortized cost and the fair value that relates to the expected credit loss is recognized as a loss in earnings, included in gains (losses) on investments and other assets on the condensed consolidated statements of earnings.

If the Company does not intend to sell and it is not more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the debt security but also do not expect to recover the entire amortized cost basis of the security, a credit loss is recognized in earnings for the amount of the expected credit loss with a corresponding allowance for credit losses as a contra-asset account. The credit loss is included in gains (losses) on investments and other assets on the condensed consolidated statements of earnings. The recognized credit loss is limited to the total unrealized loss on the security due to a change in credit.

Amounts on available for sale fixed maturities that are deemed to be uncollectible are written off and removed from the allowance for credit loss. A write-off may also occur if the Company intends to sell a security or when it is more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the security before the recovery of its amortized cost.

The Company does not measure a credit loss allowance on accrued interest receivable, included in accrued investment income on the condensed consolidated balance sheets, as the Company writes off any accrued interest receivable balance to net investment income in a timely manner (after 90 days) when the Company has concerns regarding collectability.

Evaluation of Allowance for Credit Losses

See Note 2 regarding the adoption of ASU 2016-13.

The Company providesallowance for credit losses on itsis a valuation account that is deducted from the amortized cost basis of the Company’s mortgage loans held for investment through anto present the net amount expected to be collected. The Company reports in net earnings, as a credit loss expense, the amount necessary to adjust the allowance for credit losses for the Company’s current estimate of expected credit losses on mortgage loans held for investment. This credit loss expense is included in other expenses on the condensed consolidated statements of earnings.

Once a mortgage loan losses (a contra-asset account). The allowance is comprisedpast due 90 days, it is the policy 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. Upon determining impairment, the Company establishes an individual impairmentto end the accrual of interest income on the loan and reverse any interest income that had been accrued. Given this policy, the Company does not measure a credit loss allowance on accrued interest receivable. Accrued interest receivable is included in accrued investment income on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Payments received for mortgage loans on a non-accrual status are recognized when received. The interest income recognized from payments received for mortgage loans on a non-accrual status was immaterial. Accrual of interest resumes if a mortgage loan is brought current. Interest not accrued on these loans totaled approximately $145,000 and $226,000 as of June 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022, respectively.

The Company measures expected credit losses based upon an assessment ofon the fair value of the underlying collateral.collateral when the Company determines that foreclosure is probable. When a mortgage 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 amountproperty is classified as real estate held for investment. The Company will rent the properties until it is deemed desirable to sell them.


The allowance for losses on mortgage loansinvestment or 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.

sale.

For purposes of determining the allowance for credit losses, the Company has segmented its mortgage loans held for investment by loan type. The Company'sCompany’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'sCompany’s policies to determine the borrower'sborrower’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 secondarysecondarily on the borrower'sborrower’s (or guarantors) ability to repay.


Residential – Secured

Commercial loans are evaluated for credit loss by family dwelling units.analyzing loan attributes that are predictors for future credit losses. The Company uses a combination of the debt service coverage ratio (“DSCR”) and loan to value (“LTV”) to group similar loans. The Company applies a future loss factor to the outstanding balance of each group to arrive at the allowance for credit loss.

Residential These loans are secured by first and second mortgages on single family dwellings. The borrower’s ability to repay is sensitive to the unit, which are generallylife events and the primary residencegeneral economic condition of the borrower,region. Where loan to value exceeds 80%, the loan is generally atguaranteed by private mortgage insurance, the FHA, or VA.

The Company uses a loan-to-value ratio ("LTV")third-party to provide a monthly analysis of 80% or less.


its residential portfolio for credit losses. The third-party uses the Company’s current loan data and runs it through various models to project cash flows and provide a projected life of loan loss. The models consider loan features such as loan type, loan to value, payment status, age, and current property values. The Company also considers historical delinquency rates and current unemployment trends.

Residential construction (including land acquisition and development)UnderwrittenThese loans are underwritten in accordance with the Company'sCompany’s underwriting policies, which include a financial analysis of the builders, borrowers (guarantors), construction cost estimates, and independent appraisal valuations. These loans will rely onvaluations, and factor in estimates of the value associated with the projectof construction projects 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 isacquisition and development loans are underwritten according toin accordance with the Company'sCompany’s underwriting 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.

To determine the allowance for credit losses on residential construction mortgage loans, the Company considers historical activity and housing market trends. Given the continued volatility in the housing market, the Company has adjusted its credit loss analysis.

8) Fair Value of Financial Instruments


Generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP)

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:

SECURITY NATIONAL FINANCIAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

8)    Fair Value of Financial Instruments (Continued)

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:    2: Financial assets and financial liabilities whose values are based on the following:

a)a)Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets;
b)b)Quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in non-active markets; or
c)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'sCompany’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 partythird-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:


instruments.

The items shown under Level 1 and Level 2 are valued as follows:


Equity

Fixed Maturity Securities Available for Sale: The fair values of investmentsfixed 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 along with methods used to estimate such values are disclosed in Note 3 of the Notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements.


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 EndowmentPerpetual 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.

Additionally, there were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

8) Fair Value of Financial Instruments (Continued)

The items shown under Level 3 are valued as follows:


Loans Held for Sale at Fair Value: The Company elected the fair value option for all loans held for sale originated after July 1, 2017.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'sCompany’s mortgage segment enters into loan commitments with potential borrowers and forward sale commitments to sell loans towith 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'sCompany’s recent historical data are used to estimate the quantity and value of mortgage loans that will fund within the terms of the commitments.

8)    Fair Value of Financial Instruments (Continued)

Interest Rate Swaps: Management considers the interest rate swap instruments to be an effective cash flow hedge against the variable interest rate on bank borrowings since the interest rate swap mirrors the term of the note payable and expires on the maturity date of the bank loan it hedges. The interest rate swaps are derivative financial instruments carried at their fair value. The fair value of the interest rate swap was derived from a model that factors in current market assumptions about future interest rates.

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 comparable sales in the area, comparables and property condition, as well asand 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 Marshall and Swift, 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'sCompany’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 mortgage properties,real estate held for investment, the Company uses Marshall and Swift, a provider of building cost information to the real estate construction industry. For the investment analysis, the Company useduses 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 comparablescomparable 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"(“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 precise fair value of MSRs cannot be readily determined because MSRs are not actively traded in stand-alone markets. Considerable judgment is required to estimate the fair values of these assets and the exercise of such judgment can significantly affect the Company's earnings.

The methods, assumptions and significant valuation techniques and inputs used to estimate the fair value of these financial instruments are summarized as follows:


Fixed Maturity Securities Held to Maturity: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: The estimated fair value of the Company'sCompany’s mortgage loans held for investment is determined using various methods. The Company'sCompany’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 of mortgage loans is determined through a combination of discounted cash flows (estimating expected future cash flows of interest 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,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 interest payments and discounting them using current interest rates for commercial mortgages.


Loans Held for Sale, at Amortized Cost: 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.

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.

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%1.5% to 6.5%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'sCompany’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'sCompany’s overall management of interest rate risk, such that the Company'sCompany’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.

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'sapplicant’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 MBSmortgage-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.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 all loan commitments and forward sale commitments are shown in current earnings as a component of mortgage fee income.

Call and put options are shown in other liabilities and accrued expenses on the sale of the equity security enhanced by the value of the option that was sold. If the option expires unexercised, the Company recognizes a gain from the sale of the 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 traded as a normal equity security in the Company's portfolio.

Lehman Holdings filed

The agreements for warehouse lines include cross default provisions in that a motioncovenant violation under one agreement constitutes a covenant violation under the other agreement. As of June 30, 2023, the Company was not in May 2014compliance with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court of the Southern District of New York to require the mortgage loan originators, including SecurityNational Mortgage, to engage in non-binding mediations of their alleged indemnification claims against the mortgage loan originators relative to the Fannie Maenet income covenant and Freddie Mac settlements with Lehman Holdings.  The mediation was not successful in resolving any issues between SecurityNational Mortgage and Lehman Holdings.


On January 26, 2016, SecurityNational Mortgage filed a declaratory judgment action against Lehman Holdingshas received or is in the Superior Court forprocess of receiving waivers from the State of Delaware.warehouse banks. In the Delaware action, SecurityNational Mortgage assertedunlikely event the Company is required to repay the outstanding advances of approximately $7,100,000 on the warehouse line that has not provided a covenant waiver, the Company has sufficient cash and borrowing capacity on the warehouse lines that have provided covenant waivers to fund its right to obtain a declarationorigination activities. The Company has performed an internal analysis of rights inits funding capacities of both internal and external sources and has determined that there are allegedly millions of dollars in disputesufficient funds to continue its business model. The Company continues to negotiate other warehouse lines with Lehman Holdings pertaining to approximately 136 loans.  SecurityNational Mortgage sought a declaratory judgment as to its rights as it contends that it has no liability to Lehman Holdings as a result of Lehman Holdings' settlements with Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.  Lehman Holdings filed a motion in the Delaware court seeking to stay or dismiss the declaratory judgment action.  On August 24, 2016, the Court ruled that it would exercise its discretion to decline jurisdiction over the action and granted Lehman Holdings' motion to dismiss.

On February 3, 2016, Lehman Holdings filed an adversary proceeding against approximately 150 mortgage loan originators, including SecurityNational Mortgage, in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court of the Southern District of New York seeking a declaration of rights similar in nature to the declaratory judgment that SecurityNational Mortgage sought in its Delaware lawsuit, and for damages relating to the alleged obligations of the defendants under the indemnification provisions of the alleged agreements, in amounts to be determined at trial, including interest, attorneys' fees and costs incurred by Lehman Holdings in enforcing the obligations of the defendants. No response was required to be filed relative to the Complaint or the Amended Complaint dated March 7, 2016. A Case Management Order was entered on November 1, 2016.

On December 27, 2016, pursuant to the Case Management Order, Lehman Holdings filed a Second Amended Complaint against SecurityNational Mortgage, which eliminates the declaratory judgment claim but retains a similar claim for damages as in the Complaint.  The case is presently in a motion period. Many of the defendants, including SecurityNational Mortgage, filed a joint motion in the case asserting that the Bankruptcy Court does not have subject matter jurisdiction concerning the matter and that venue is improper. Lehman Holdings' response memorandum was filed on May 31, 2017 and a reply memorandum of the defendants filing the motion was filed on July 14, 2017. A hearing date for the motion has not been set. No Answer to the Second Amended Complaint is required to be filed by SecurityNational Mortgage pending further order of the Court.  SecurityNational Mortgage denies that it has any liability to Lehman Holdings and intends to vigorously protect and defend its position.
other lenders.

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 SeptemberJune 30, 2017,2023, the Company'sCompany’s commitments were approximately $69,601,000$170,804,000 for these loans, of which $41,307,000$124,975,445 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%50% and 80%80% of appraised value. The Company receives fees and interest for these loans and the interest rate is generally fixed 5.50%5.25% to 8.00%8.50% 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'sCompany’s financial position or results of operations. Based on management'smanagement’s assessment and legal counsel'scounsel’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.

11) Mortgage Servicing Rights


The Company initially records these Mortgage Servicing Rights ("MSRs")MSRs at fair value as discussed in Note 8.


The Company's subsequent accounting for MSRs is based on the class of MSRs. The Company has identified two classes of MSRs: MSRs backed by mortgage loans with initial term of 30 years and MSRs backed by mortgage loans with initial term of 15 years. The Company distinguishes between these classes of MSRs due to their differing sensitivities to change in value as the result of changes in market.

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 straight-line over an estimated seven and nine-year life which estimates thein 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'sasset’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 following table presents the MSR activity:

13) Acquisitions

Acquisition of First Guaranty Insurance Company

On July 11, 2016, the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary Security National Life, completed the stock purchase transaction with the shareholders of Reppond Holding Corporation, an Arkansas corporation ("Reppond Holding") and sole shareholder of First Guaranty Insurance Company, a Louisiana domestic stock legal reserve life insurance company ("First Guaranty"), to purchase all the outstanding shares of common stock of Reppond Holding. Under the terms of the stock purchase agreement, dated February 17, 2016, between Security National Life and Reppond Holding, which was later amended on March 4 and 17, 2016, Security National Life paid a total of $6,753,000 at the closing in consideration for the purchase of all the outstanding shares of stock of Reppond Holding from its shareholders.

The estimated fair values of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed at the date of acquisition were as follows:

Fixed maturity securities, held to maturity $43,878,084 
Equity securities, available for sale  646,335 
Mortgage loans held for investment  4,528,582 
Real estate held for investment  528,947 
Policy loans  145,953 
Short-term investments  5,358,403 
Accrued investment income  585,985 
Cash and cash equivalents  2,424,480 
Receivables  73,347 
Property and equipment  21,083 
Deferred tax asset  1,190,862 
Receivable from reinsurers  34,948 
Other  57,768 
Total assets acquired  59,474,777 
Future policy benefits and unpaid claims  (52,648,838)
Accounts payable  (6,953)
Other liabilities and accrued expenses  (65,986)
Total liabilities assumed  (52,721,777)
Fair value of net assets acquired/consideration paid $6,753,000 

The estimated fair value of the fixed maturity securities and the equity securities is based on unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets in an active market.  These types of financial assets are considered Level 1 under the fair value hierarchy. The estimated fair value of future policy benefits and unpaid claims is based on assumptions of the future value of the business acquired. Based on the unobservable nature of certain of these assumptions, the valuation for these financial liabilities is considered to be Level 3 under the fair value hierarchy. The Company determined that the estimated fair value of the remaining assets and liabilities acquired approximated their book values. The fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed were subject to adjustment during the first twelve months after the acquisition date if additional information became available to indicate a more accurate or appropriate value for an asset or liability. No adjustments were made.

The decrease in the valuation allowance related to the prior acquisition of First Guaranty Insurance Company that decreased the effective income tax rates for both periods,rate when compared to the prior year periods.is primarily due to the Company’s state income tax provision.

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.

13) 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.

15) Cemetery Perpetual Care Trust Investments and AnalysisObligation and Restricted Assets

Cemetery Perpetual Care Trust Investments and Obligation

State law requires the Company to pay into endowment care trusts a portion of the proceeds from the sale of certain cemetery property interment rights for cemeteries that have established an endowment care trust. These endowment care trusts are defined as variable interest entities pursuant to GAAP. Also, management has determined that the Company is the primary beneficiary of these trusts, as it absorbs both a majority of the losses and returns associated with the trusts. The Company has consolidated cemetery endowment care trust investments with a corresponding amount recorded as Cemetery Perpetual Care Obligation in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

The components of the cemetery perpetual care investments and obligation as of June 30, 2023, are as follows:

Item 2.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Overview

The Company’s operations over the last several years generally reflect three trends or eventsstrategies which the Company expects to continue: (i) increased attention to "niche"“niche” insurance products, such as the Company'sCompany’s funeral plan policies and traditional whole life products; (ii) increased emphasis on the cemetery and mortuary business; and (iii) capitalizing on relatively low interest ratesan improving housing market by originating mortgage loans.


Insurance Operations


The Company'sCompany’s life insurance business includes funeral plans and interest-sensitive life insurance, as well as other traditional life, accident and health insurance products. The Company places specific marketing emphasis on funeral plans through pre-need planning.


A funeral plan is a small face value life insurance policy that generally has face coverage of up to $25,000.$30,000. The Company believes that funeral plans represent a marketing niche that has lower competitionis less competitive because most insurance companies do not offer similar coverage. The purpose of the funeral plan policy is to pay the costs and expenses incurred at the time of a person'sperson’s death. On a per thousand-dollar cost of insurance basis, these policies can be more expensive to the policyholder than many types of non-burial insurance due to their low face amount, requiring the fixed cost of the policy administration to be distributed over a smaller policy size, and the simplified underwriting practices that result in higher mortality costs.


The following table shows the condensed financial results of the insurance operations for three and nine monthssix month periods ended SeptemberJune 30, 20172023, and 2016.2022. See Note 7 to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Mortgage Operations


The Company'sCompany’s wholly owned subsidiaries,subsidiary, SecurityNational Mortgage, and EverLEND Mortgage Company (formerly known as Green Street Mortgage Services, Inc.), areis a mortgage lenderslender incorporated under the laws of the State of Utah and approved and regulated by the Federal Housing Administration (FHA), a department of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), which originate mortgage loans that qualify for government insurance in the event of default by the borrower, in addition to various conventional mortgage loan products. SecurityNational Mortgage originates and EverLEND Mortgage originate and refinancerefinances mortgage loans on a retail basis. Mortgage loans originated or refinanced by the Company's mortgage subsidiariesSecurityNational Mortgage are funded through loan purchase agreements with Security National Life, Kilpatrick Life and unaffiliated financial institutions.


The Company's mortgage subsidiaries

SecurityNational Mortgage receive fees from borrowers that are involved in mortgage loan originations and refinancings, and secondary fees earned from third party investors that purchase the mortgage loans originated by the mortgage subsidiaries.loans. Mortgage loans originated by the mortgage subsidiaries are generally sold with mortgage servicing rights (“MSRs”) released to third-party investors or retained by SecurityNational Mortgage. SecurityNational Mortgage currently retains the mortgage servicing rights on approximately 30%5% of its loan origination volume. These mortgage loans are serviced by either SecurityNational Mortgage or an approved third-party sub-servicer. On October 31, 2022, the Company sold certain of its MSRs. The MSRs related to mortgage loans previously originated by the Company in aggregate unpaid principal amount of approximately $7.02 billion. As a result of the sale, the book value of the Company’s MSRs decreased by $51,185,906.

Mortgage rates have followed the US Treasury yields up in response to the higher than expected inflation and the expectation that the Federal Reserve will continue to raise rates in the near term. As expected, the rapid increase in mortgage rates has resulted in a decrease in loan originations classified as ‘refinance.’ Higher mortgage rates have also had a negative effect on loan originations classified as ‘purchases,’ although not as significant as those in the refinance classification.
