FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
SERVICE CORPORATION INTERNATIONAL
ANNOUNCES FIRST QUARTER 2009 FINANCIAL RESULTS
- Conference call on Thursday, May 7, 2009, at 8:30 a.m. Central Daylight Time.
HOUSTON, Texas, May 6, 2009 . . . Service Corporation International (NYSE: SCI), a leading provider of deathcare products and services, today reported results for the first quarter 2009. Our consolidated financial statements can be found at the end of this press release. The table below summarizes our key financial results:
(In millions, except for per share amounts) | Three Months Ended March 31, | |||||||
| 2009 | 2008 | |||||||
| Revenues | $ | 510.6 | $ | 573.5 | ||||
| Operating income | $ | 85.6 | $ | 99.4 | ||||
| Net income attributable to common stockholders | $ | 34.5 | $ | 41.5 | ||||
| Diluted earnings per share | $ | .14 | $ | .16 | ||||
Earnings from continuing operations excluding special items(1) | $ | 31.0 | $ | 51.8 | ||||
Diluted earnings per share from continuing operations excluding special items(1) | $ | .12 | $ | .20 | ||||
| Diluted weighted average shares outstanding | 250.3 | 265.3 | ||||||
| Net cash provided by operating activities | $ | 141.4 | $ | 46.3 | ||||
Net cash provided by operating activities excluding special items(1) | $ | 141.4 | $ | 139.6 | ||||
| (1) | Earnings from continuing operations excluding special items, diluted earnings per share from continuing operations excluding special items, and net cash provided by operating activities excluding special items are non-GAAP financial measures. A reconciliation to net income attributable to common stockholders, diluted earnings per share, and net cash provided by operating activities computed in accordance with GAAP can be found later in this press release under the heading “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” or “Cash Flow and Capital Spending”. |
Highlights:
| – | Diluted earnings per share from continuing operations excluding special items was $0.12 in the first quarter 2009 compared to $0.20 in the prior year first quarter. These results were in line with our expectations as cost reduction initiatives and a better than expected tax rate offset lower than expected funeral services performed. |
| – | Funeral gross profit decreased $24.3 million as decreases in funeral services performed were partially offset by lower variable costs. Excluding an unfavorable Canadian currency impact and lower funeral trust fund income, the average revenue per funeral service grew approximately 4.0%. |
| – | Cemetery gross profit decreased $13.2 million due to a decline in cemetery property sales and lower cemetery trust fund income, which were partially offset by lower variable costs. Cemetery gross profit exceeded our expectations as cost control initiatives helped to offset expected cemetery revenue declines. |

| – | Net cash provided by operating activities excluding special items was $141.4 million during the quarter. This $1.8 million increase compared to the prior year primarily resulted from cost control and working capital initiatives, which were partially offset by declines in atneed customer cash receipts attributable to lower revenues as compared to 2008 levels. |
Tom Ryan, the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer, commented on the first quarter of 2009:
“Considering the current economic environment, we are encouraged by our results in the first quarter. Even though we experienced a significant decrease in comparable funeral volume that was more than anticipated, we were able to prudently manage costs and capital spending so that earnings and cash flow results still met our internal projections. Subsequent to the first quarter, we have also focused on deleveraging initiatives, which has resulted in reducing our debt by an additional $53 million in April. Looking ahead to the remainder of 2009, we intend to maintain our focus on controlling and reducing costs and deleveraging, and we remain optimistic about the prospects for SCI in the future. ”

| (1) | Other revenue consists primarily of General Agency (GA) revenues, which are commissions we receive from third-party insurance companies for life insurance policies or annuities sold to preneed customers for the purpose of funding preneed funeral arrangements. |
| – | Comparable funeral services performed decreased 11.2%. We believe the decline in deaths in our markets is consistent with trends experienced by other funeral service providers and industry vendors and was due in part to a relatively mild influenza season compared to the first quarter of 2008, and an additional day due to leap year in the prior year quarter. |
| – | The comparable average revenue per funeral service grew 0.7% over the prior year quarter. Excluding an unfavorable Canadian currency impact and lower funeral trust fund income, the average revenue per funeral service grew approximately 4.0%. |
| – | The cremation rate increased 190 basis points to 42.9% in the first quarter of 2009 compared to 41.0% for the same period of 2008, which resulted in lower revenues of approximately $4.7 million, or $70 per funeral service. |
| – | Comparable funeral gross profit decreased $22.7 million, or 20.9%, due to the impact of lower funeral services performed and a decrease in funeral trust fund income, which were partially offset by lower variable merchandise costs and a decline in personnel costs related to work force initiatives. The gross margin percentage decreased to 23.9% compared to 27.1% in 2008. |
| – | Preneed funeral sales production increased $1.2 million, or 1.1%. Total funeral contracts sold increased 1.9% while the average revenue per contract sold decreased 0.7%. Excluding an unfavorable Canadian currency impact, the average revenue grew 1.9%. Preneed funeral sales are deferred and recognized in the future when the funeral service is performed. |

| (2) | Represents the ratio of current period revenue recognition stated as a percentage of current period sales production. |
| – | Comparable atneed cemetery revenues declined $6.7 million, or 10.3%, which we believe was primarily driven by a decline in deaths in our markets. |
| – | Comparable recognized preneed cemetery revenues declined $10.5 million, which was in line with our expectations and continued to be impacted by negative consumer sentiment resulting from the difficult economic environment. |
| – | Other revenue decreased by $6.2 million, or 27.9%, as cemetery trust fund income recognized from our preneed merchandise and service trust declined $5.5 million due to negative market returns experienced in late 2008 and early 2009. Cemetery trust fund income from our preneed merchandise and service trust as well as our endowment care trust was in line with our expectations for the first quarter of 2009. |
| – | Cemetery gross profit decreased $13.8 million, due to the revenue declines described above which were partially offset by lower variable selling compensation expenses and a decline in personnel costs related to work force initiatives. The cemetery gross profit in the quarter exceeded our expectations as cost control initiatives helped to offset lower than expected atneed revenues due to a reduced number of deaths in our markets during the quarter. |
| – | As anticipated, comparable preneed and atneed cemetery sales production declined $18.1 million primarily due to lower cemetery property sales production. |

Other Financial Results
| – | General and administrative expenses decreased $3.3 million primarily due to lower incentive compensation expense. |
| – | Gain on divestitures and impairment charges, net of $7.2 million in the first quarter of 2009 included the release of $14.1 million of tax and litigation indemnifications related to our former French operations, partially offset by losses from impairment charges and asset divestitures in North America. |
Cash Flow and Capital Spending
Set forth below is a reconciliation of net cash provided by operating activities excluding special items to our reported net cash provided by operating activities prepared in accordance with GAAP. We do not intend for this information to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for other measures of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.
(In millions) | Three Months Ended March 31, | |||||||
| 2009 | 2008 | |||||||
| Net cash provided by operating activities, as reported | $ | 141.4 | $ | 46.3 | ||||
| Federal tax payment | — | 90.0 | ||||||
| One-time Alderwoods transition and other costs | — | 3.3 | ||||||
| Net cash provided by operating activities, excluding special items | $ | 141.4 | $ | 139.6 | ||||
Net cash provided by operating activities, excluding special items, was $141.4 million for the first quarter of 2009. We did experience declines in customer atneed cash receipts compared to 2008 in both the funeral and cemetery segments related to the decrease in the number of deaths in our markets. However, we experienced good customer collection rates related to our funeral and cemetery preneed contracts during the quarter. These preneed cash collections, coupled with cost controls, significantly reduced incentive compensation payments and working capital initiatives resulted in operating cash flows during the quarter that were in line with our expectations.
As anticipated, we were also successful in prudently managing our capital expenditures during the quarter. A summary of our capital expenditures is set forth below:
(In millions) | Three Months Ended March 31, | |||||||
| 2009 | 2008 | |||||||
| Capital improvements at existing locations | $ | 9.0 | $ | 14.2 | ||||
| Development of cemetery property | 9.2 | 10.6 | ||||||
| Construction of new funeral home facilities and other growth | 5.3 | 4.4 | ||||||
| Total capital expenditures | $ | 23.5 | $ | 29.2 | ||||
TRUST FUND PERFORMANCE
A summary of our U.S. trust fund performance for the three months ended March 31, 2009 is set forth below:
| Preneed Funeral | (4.4 | )% | ||
| Preneed Cemetery | (4.6 | )% | ||
| Cemetery Perpetual Care | (2.8 | )% | ||

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
Earnings from continuing operations excluding special items, diluted earnings per share from continuing operations excluding special items, and net cash from operating activities excluding special items shown above are all non-GAAP financial measures. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide a consistent basis for comparison between quarters and better reflect the performance of our core operations, as they are not influenced by certain income, expense, and cash items not affecting continuing operations. We also believe this measure helps facilitate comparisons to our competitors’ operating results.
Set forth below is a reconciliation of earnings from continuing operations excluding special items to our reported net income. We do not intend for this information to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for other measures of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.

These statements are based on assumptions that we believe are reasonable; however, many important factors could cause our actual results in the future to differ materially from the forward-looking statements made herein and in any other documents or oral presentations made by us, or on our behalf. Important factors, which could cause actual results to differ materially from those in forward-looking statements include, among others, the following:
| Ÿ | Changes in general economic conditions, both domestically and internationally, impacting financial markets (e.g., marketable security values, access to capital markets, as well as currency and interest rate fluctuations) that could negatively affect us, particularly, but not limited to, levels of trust fund income, interest expense, and negative currency translation effects. |
| Ÿ | Changes in operating conditions such as supply disruptions and labor disputes. |
Page 6
| Ÿ | Our inability to achieve the level of cost savings, productivity improvements or earnings growth anticipated by management, whether due to significant increases in energy costs (e.g., electricity, natural gas and fuel oil), costs of other materials, employee-related costs or other factors. |
| Ÿ | Inability to complete acquisitions, divestitures or strategic alliances as planned or to realize expected synergies and strategic benefits. |
| Ÿ | The outcomes of pending lawsuits, proceedings, and claims against us and the possibility that insurance coverage is deemed not to apply to these matters or that an insurance carrier is unable to pay any covered amounts to us. |
| Ÿ | Allegations regarding compliance with laws, regulations, industry standards, and customs regarding funeral or burial procedures and practices. |
| Ÿ | The amounts payable by us with respect to our outstanding legal matters exceed our established reserves. |
| Ÿ | Amounts that we may be required to replenish into our affiliated funeral and cemetery trust funds in order to meet minimal funding requirements. |
| Ÿ | The outcome of pending Internal Revenue Service audits. We maintain accruals for tax liabilities which relate to uncertain tax matters. If these tax matters are unfavorably resolved, we will make any required payments to tax authorities. If these tax matters are favorably resolved, the accruals maintained by us will no longer be required, and these amounts will be released through the tax provision at the time of resolution. |
| Ÿ | Our ability to manage changes in consumer demand and/or pricing for our products and services due to several factors, such as changes in numbers of deaths, cremation rates, competitive pressures, and local economic conditions. |
| Ÿ | Changes in domestic and international political and/or regulatory environments in which we operate, including potential changes in tax, accounting, and trusting policies. |
| Ÿ | Changes in credit relationships impacting the availability of credit and the general availability of credit in the marketplace. |

| Ÿ | Our ability to successfully leverage our substantial purchasing power with certain of our vendors. |
| Ÿ | The effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, and our ability to certify the effectiveness of the internal controls and to obtain an unqualified attestation report of our auditors regarding the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. |
| Ÿ | The possibility that our credit agreement and privately placed debt securities may prevent us from engaging in certain transactions. |
| Ÿ | Our ability to buy our common stock under our share repurchase programs which could be impacted by, among others, restrictive covenants in our bank agreements, unfavorable market conditions, the market price of our common stock, the nature of other investment opportunities presented to us from time to time, and the availability of funds necessary to continue purchasing common stock. |
| Ÿ | The financial conditions of third-party insurance companies that fund our preneed funeral contracts may impact our future revenues. |
| Ÿ | Continued economic crisis and financial and stock market declines could reduce future potential earnings and cash flows and could result in future goodwill impairments. |
| Ÿ | The weakening economy may cause customers to reassess preneed funeral or cemetery arrangements or decrease the amounts atneed customers are willing to pay or consider cremation as opposed to burial. |
| Ÿ | Changes in our funeral and cemetery trust funds, investments in equity securities, fixed income securities and mutual funds could be significantly negatively impacted by the weakening economy. |
