NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Company

Carriage Services, Inc. (“Carriage,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) is a leading provider of funeral and cemetery services and merchandise in the United States (“U.S.”). Our operations are reported in two business segments: Funeral Home Operations, which currently accounts for approximately 66% of our total revenue and Cemetery Operations, which currently accounts for approximately 34% of our total revenue. At June 30, 2026, we operated 155 funeral homes in 24 states and 28 cemeteries in 9 states.

Our funeral home operations are principally service businesses that generate revenue from sales of burial and cremation services and related merchandise, such as caskets and urns. Funeral services include consultation, the removal and preparation of remains, the sale of caskets and related funeral merchandise, the use of funeral home facilities for visitation and memorial services and transportation services. We provide funeral services and products on both an “atneed” (time of death) and “preneed” (planned prior to death) basis.

Our cemetery operations generate revenue primarily through sales of cemetery interment rights (primarily grave sites, lawn crypts, mausoleum spaces and niches), related cemetery merchandise (such as memorial markers, outer burial containers and monuments) and services (interments, inurnments and installation of cemetery merchandise). We provide cemetery services and products on both an atneed and preneed basis.

Principles of Consolidation and Interim Condensed Disclosures

Our unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the Company and its subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. Our interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are unaudited, but include all adjustments, which consist of normal, recurring accruals, that are necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position and results of operations as of and for the interim periods presented.

There have been no material changes in our accounting policies previously disclosed in Part II, Item 8 “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” in Note 1 in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. In addition, our unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in a manner consistent with the accounting principles described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, unless otherwise disclosed herein, and should be read in conjunction therewith.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our critical estimates and judgments, which include those related to the impairment of goodwill and the fair value measurements used in business combinations. These policies are considered critical because they may result in fluctuations in our reported results from period to period due to significant judgments, estimates and assumptions about complex and inherently uncertain matters and because the use of different judgments, assumptions or estimates could have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations. Actual results may differ from these estimates and such estimates may change if the underlying conditions or assumptions change. Historical performance should not be viewed as indicative of future performance because there can be no assurance the margins, operating income and net earnings, as a percentage of revenue, will be consistent from period to period.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

We consider all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Inventory

Inventory consists primarily of caskets, outer burial containers and cemetery monuments and markers and is recorded at the lower of its cost basis or net realizable value. Inventory is relieved using specific identification in fulfillment of performance obligations on our contracts.

Held for Sale

The Company classifies assets and liabilities (disposal groups) to be sold as held for sale (“HFS”) in the period in which all of the following criteria are met: (1) management, having the authority to approve the action, commits to a plan to sell the disposal group; (2) the disposal group is available for immediate sale in its present condition subject only to terms that are usual and customary for sales of such disposal groups; (3) an active program to locate a buyer and other actions required to complete

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

the plan to sell the disposal group have been initiated; (4) the sale of the disposal group is probable, and transfer of the disposal group is expected to qualify for recognition as a completed sale within one year, except if events or circumstances beyond the Company’s control extend the period of time required to sell the disposal group beyond one year; (5) the disposal group is being actively marketed for sale at a price that is reasonable in relation to its current fair value; and (6) actions required to complete the plan indicate that it is unlikely that significant changes to the plan will be made or that the plan will be withdrawn.

The Company initially measures a disposal group that is classified as held for sale at the lower of its carrying value or fair value less any costs to sell. Any loss resulting from this measurement is recognized in the period in which the held for sale criteria are met. Conversely, gains are not recognized on the sale of a disposal group until the date of sale. The Company assesses the fair value of a disposal group, less any costs to sell, each reporting period it remains classified as held for sale and reports any subsequent changes as an adjustment to the carrying value of the disposal group, as long as the new carrying value does not exceed the carrying value of the disposal group at the time it was initially classified as held for sale. Additionally, depreciation is not recorded during the period in which the long-lived assets, included in the disposal group, are classified as held for sale.

Upon determining that a disposal group meets the criteria to be classified as held for sale, the Company reports the assets and liabilities of the disposal group, if material, in the line items current and non-current assets held for sale and current and long-term liabilities held for sale in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Held for sale balances on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets primarily consist of $0.3 million of property, plant and equipment as of June 30, 2026, and December 31, 2025, respectively.

On July 10, 2026, we completed the sale of excess land that was classified as held for sale on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of June 30, 2026.

During the three months ended June 30, 2026, we sold one funeral home for an aggregate of $0.3 million. We recorded an impairment of $0.1 million and $0.3 million, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, respectively, resulting in an immaterial loss recorded in Net (gain) loss on divestitures and impairment charges on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

During the three months ended June 30, 2025, we merged one funeral home with another business we own in an existing market. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, we sold two funeral homes and three cemeteries for an aggregate of $15.8 million and merged one funeral home with another business we own in an existing market. We recorded an impairment of $0.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2025, resulting in a gain of $5.9 million recorded in Net (gain) loss on divestitures and impairment charges on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Income Taxes

Income tax expense was $4.9 million and $5.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, and $9.8 million and $10.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. Our operating tax rate before discrete items was 28.8% and 31.2% for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, and 28.4% and 31.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

2. RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

Expense Disaggregation

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income-Expense Disaggregation Disclosures. Additionally, in January 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-01 to clarify the effective date of ASU 2024-03. The standard provides guidance to expand disclosures related to the disaggregation of income statement expenses. The amendments in this update require, in the notes to the financial statements, disclosure of specified information about certain costs and expenses, which includes purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation and intangible asset amortization included in each relevant expense caption. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, on a retrospective or prospective basis, with early adoption permitted. We expect the adoption will have no material impact on our consolidated financial statements as it modifies disclosure requirements only.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

Internal-Use Software

In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software. Under the new guidance, costs associated with software developed for internal use will now be capitalized when management authorizes a project and when it is probable the project will be completed and used to perform the function intended, rather than when a project reaches the application development stage under existing guidance. The guidance is effective beginning January 1, 2028, with early adoption permitted, and can be applied prospectively, retrospectively, or on a modified retrospective basis. We have not determined the transition method, timing for adoption, or estimated the effect on our consolidated financial statements.

3. SEGMENT REPORTING

Our Chief Operating Decision Maker (the “CODM”), who is the Chief Executive Officer, utilizes segment adjusted operating profit for resource allocation across segments, particularly during the annual budgeting and forecasting processes. The CODM examines variances on a monthly basis to make informed decisions regarding capital and personnel distribution among segments. Additionally, the CODM employs segment gross profit for product pricing evaluation and uses segment adjusted operating profit to assess each segment’s performance by comparing results and return on assets against expected outcomes. The CODM does not review disaggregated assets by segment; therefore assets by segment are not provided.

5. GOODWILL

Many of the former owners and staff of our acquired funeral home and cemetery businesses have provided high quality service to families for generations, which often represents a substantial portion of the value of a business. The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of identifiable net assets of acquired funeral home and cemetery businesses is recorded as goodwill.

The following table presents changes in goodwill in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets (in thousands):


	June 30, 2026		December 31, 2025
Goodwill at the beginning of the period	$	427,897	$	414,859
Increase in goodwill related to acquisitions	1,096		37,746
Decrease in goodwill related to divestitures	(279)		(24,708)

Goodwill at the end of the period	$	428,714	$	427,897

During the six months ended June 30, 2026, we allocated $0.3 million of goodwill to the sale of one funeral home which was recorded in Net loss on divestitures and impairment charges on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, allocated to our funeral home segment.

During the six months ended June 30, 2025, we allocated $4.2 million of goodwill to the sale of two funeral homes and three cemeteries which was recorded in Net loss (gain) on divestitures and impairment charges on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, of which $2.6 million was allocated to our funeral home segment and $1.6 million was allocated to our cemetery segment.

During the first quarter of 2026, the Company implemented an executive leadership restructuring that changed the manner in which certain funeral home operations are managed and reviewed. As a result, the Company reassessed its reporting unit

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

structure under ASC 350, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other and determined that certain reporting units within the funeral home segment no longer met the criteria to be considered separate reporting units. Accordingly, the Company combined these reporting units into a single reporting unit. This change did not affect the Company’s operating segments under ASC 280, Segment Reporting. In connection with the change in reporting unit structure, the Company performed a qualitative goodwill impairment assessment and concluded that it was not more likely than not that the fair value of the combined reporting unit was less than its carrying amount. Accordingly, no quantitative impairment test was required, and no goodwill impairment charge was recognized.

6. RECEIVABLES

7. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

We evaluated our financial assets and liabilities for those that met the criteria of the disclosure requirements and fair value framework. The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate the fair values of those instruments due to the short-term nature of the instruments. The fair values of our receivables on preneed cemetery contracts are impracticable to estimate because of the lack of a trading market and the diverse number of individual contracts with varying terms. Our acquisition debt, Credit Facility, and Senior Notes (as defined in Note 10) are classified within Level 2 of the Fair Value Measurements hierarchy.

At June 30, 2026, the carrying value and fair value of our Credit Facility was $124.0 million. We believe that our Credit Facility bears interest at a rate that approximates prevailing market rates for instruments with similar characteristics and therefore, the carrying value of our Credit Facility approximates fair value. We estimate the fair value of our acquisition debt utilizing an income approach, which uses a present value calculation to discount payments based on current market rates as of the reporting date. At June 30, 2026, the carrying value of our acquisition debt was $6.2 million, which approximated its fair value. The fair value of our Senior Notes was $383.1 million at June 30, 2026, based on the last traded or broker quoted price.

In addition, we have an investment in a limited partnership fund, whose fair value has been estimated using the net asset value per share practical expedient described in ASC 820-10-35-59, Fair Value Measurement of Investments in Certain Entities That Calculate Net Asset Value per Share (or Its Equivalent) and therefore, has not been classified in the fair value hierarchy. The investment strategy of this fund is to generate attractive risk-adjusted returns over a multi-year performance period through the construction of a concentrated portfolio of investments possessing certain distinct business attributes that suggest the potential for long-term value creation. The value of the investments in this fund cannot be liquidated at June 30, 2026 because the investments include restrictions that do not allow for liquidation until 2027. As of June 30, 2026, we do not have an unfunded commitment for this investment.

Furthermore, we have nine investments in real estate debt and structured credit (“alternative investments”), whose fair value has been estimated using NAV and therefore, has not been classified in the fair value hierarchy. The investment strategy for these alternative investments is to create capital growth, income generation, and risk-adjusted returns. Capital growth is

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

achieved by identifying high-potential investments that are appreciated over time. Income generation may involve dividends, rental income, or interest from various investments. Risk-adjusted returns focus on balancing potential profits with acceptable levels of risk, often through diversification and careful asset allocation. The real estate debt is approximately 41% of the total alternative investment and can be liquidated with a 40-day notice period and cannot exceed 5% of the total fund’s value. The structured credit is approximately 59% of the total alternative investment and can be liquidated with a 15-day notice period with no restrictions. As of June 30, 2026, we had approximately $29 million in unfunded commitments for these investments.

We identified investments in fixed income securities, common stock, and mutual funds presented within the preneed and perpetual care trust investments categories on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as having met the criteria for fair value measurement. Our receivables from preneed funeral trusts represent assets in trusts, which are controlled and operated by third parties in which we do not have a controlling financial interest (less than 50%) in the trust assets. We account for these receivables at cost.

The following three-level valuation hierarchy based upon the transparency of inputs is utilized in the measurement and valuation of financial assets or liabilities as of the measurement date:

•Level 1—Fair value of securities based on unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. Our investments classified as Level 1 securities include cash, U.S. treasury debt, common stock and equity mutual funds;

•Level 2—Fair value of securities estimated based on quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, and inputs other than quoted market prices that are observable or that can be corroborated by observable market data by correlation. These inputs include interest rates, yield curves, credit risk, prepayment speeds, rating and tax-exempt status. Our investments classified as Level 2 securities include U.S. agency obligations, foreign debt, corporate debt, preferred stocks, certificates of deposit and fixed income mutual funds and other investments.

•Level 3—Unobservable inputs based upon the reporting entity’s internally developed assumptions, which market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. As of June 30, 2026 and 2025, we did not have any assets that had fair values determined by Level 3 inputs and no liabilities measured at fair value.

See Notes 8 and 9 to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the fair value hierarchy levels of our trust investments.

8. TRUST INVESTMENTS

Preneed trust investments represent trust fund assets that we are generally permitted to withdraw as the services and merchandise are provided to customers. Preneed funeral and cemetery contracts are secured by payments from customers, less amounts not required by law to be deposited into trust. These earnings are recognized in Other revenue on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, when a service is performed or merchandise is delivered. Trust management fees charged by our wholly owned registered investment advisory firm are included as revenue in the period in which they are earned. Our investments are diversified across multiple industry segments using a balanced allocation strategy to minimize long-term risk. We do not intend to sell and it is likely that we will not be required to sell the securities prior to their anticipated recovery.

Cemetery perpetual care trust investments represent a portion of the proceeds from the sale of cemetery property interment rights that we are required by various state laws to deposit into perpetual care trust funds. The income earned from these perpetual care trusts offsets maintenance expenses for cemetery property and memorials. This trust fund income is recognized in Other revenue.

Changes in the fair value of our trust fund assets (Preneed funeral, cemetery and perpetual care trust investments) are offset by changes in the fair value of our trust fund liabilities (Deferred preneed funeral and cemetery receipts held in trust and Care trusts’ corpus) and reflected in Other, net. There is no impact on earnings until such time the services are performed, or the merchandise is delivered, causing the contract to be withdrawn from the trust in accordance with state regulations and the gain or loss is allocated to the contract.

We rely on our trust investments to provide funding for the various contractual obligations that arise upon maturity of the underlying preneed contracts. Because of the long-term relationship between the establishment of trust investments and the required performance of the underlying contractual obligations, the impact of current market conditions that may exist at any given time is not necessarily indicative of our ability to generate profit on our future performance obligations.

Senior Notes

The carrying value of our 4.25% senior notes due 2029 (the “Senior Notes”) is reflected on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as follows (in thousands):


	June 30, 2026		December 31, 2025

Principal amount	$	400,000	$	400,000

Debt discount, net of accumulated amortization of $2,702 and $2,411, respectively	(1,798)		(2,089)
Debt issuance costs, net of accumulated amortization of $768 and $685, respectively	(509)		(592)
Carrying value of the Senior Notes	$	397,693	$	397,319

At June 30, 2026, the fair value of the Senior Notes, which are Level 2 measurements, was $383.1 million.

The Senior Notes were issued under an indenture, dated as of May 13, 2021 (the “Indenture”), among the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors and Wilmington Trust, National Association, as trustee. The Senior Notes are unsecured, senior obligations and are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis, jointly and severally by each of the Subsidiary Guarantors. The Senior Notes mature on May 15, 2029, unless earlier redeemed or purchased and bear interest at 4.25% per year, which is payable semi-annually in arrears on May 15 and November 15 of each year, beginning on November 15, 2021.

The Indenture contains restrictive covenants limiting our ability and our Restricted Subsidiaries (as defined in the Indenture) to, among other things, incur additional indebtedness or issue certain preferred shares, create liens on certain assets to secure debt, pay dividends or make other equity distributions, purchase or redeem capital stock, make certain investments, sell assets, agree to certain restrictions on the ability of Restricted Subsidiaries to make payments to us, consolidate, merge, sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all assets, or engage in transactions with affiliates. The Indenture also contains customary events of default.

The interest expense and amortization of debt discount and debt issuance costs related to our Senior Notes are as follows (in thousands):


	Three months ended June 30,		Six months ended June 30,
	2026	2025	2026		2025		Filter Handle
Senior Notes interest expense	4,250	4,250	$	8,500	$	8,500	X
Senior Notes amortization of debt discount	145	140	291		278		X

Senior Notes amortization of debt issuance costs	42	40	83		79		X

The debt discount and the debt issuance costs are being amortized using the effective interest method over the remaining term of approximately 35 months of the Senior Notes. The effective interest rates on the unamortized debt discount and the unamortized debt issuance costs for the Senior Notes for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 were 4.42% and 4.30%, respectively.

Credit Facility

At June 30, 2026, our senior secured revolving credit facility (as amended, the “Credit Facility”) was comprised of: (i) a $250.0 million revolving credit facility, including a $15.0 million subfacility for letters of credit and a $10.0 million swingline, and (ii) an accordion or incremental option allowing for future increases in the facility size by an additional amount of up to $75.0 million in the aggregate in the form of increased revolving commitments or incremental term loans.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

Our obligations under the Credit Facility are unconditionally guaranteed on a joint and several basis by the same subsidiaries which guarantee the Senior Notes (as defined in Senior Notes above) and certain of our subsequently acquired or organized domestic subsidiaries (collectively, the “Subsidiary Guarantors”).

On July 31, 2024, the Company entered into a fourth amendment, (the “Credit Facility Amendment”), to our Credit Facility, with the financial institutions party thereto, as lenders, and Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent. The Credit Facility Amendment provided, among other things, for (i) the extension of the maturity date of the Credit Facility to July 31, 2029, provided that, if the Senior Notes (as defined in the Credit Facility) have a stated maturity date that is prior to July 31, 2029, then the maturity date shall instead be the date that is 91 days prior to the stated maturity date of the Senior Notes; (ii) the establishment of Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) as a benchmark rate and the removal of BSBY from the Credit Facility, including conforming revisions to certain defined terms under the Credit Facility; (iii) the conversion of each existing BSBY Rate Loan (as defined in the Credit Facility prior to giving effect to the Credit Facility Amendment) to a Term SOFR Loan (as defined in the Credit Facility); (iv) modifications to the definitions of “Applicable Rate” and “Applicable Fee Rate” to change the applicable rates and pricing levels set forth in each pricing grid; (v) the removal of certain mandatory prepayments arising from the issuance of either Equity Interests or Debt (as both are defined by the Credit Facility); and (vi) modifications to the permitted investments covenant, relating to the Company’s ability to make certain acquisitions, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions therein.

The Credit Facility contains customary affirmative covenants, including, but not limited to, covenants with respect to the use of proceeds, payment of taxes and other obligations, continuation of the Company’s business and the maintenance of existing rights and privileges, the maintenance of property and insurance, among others.

In addition, the Credit Facility also contains customary negative covenants, including, but not limited to, covenants that restrict (subject to certain exceptions) the ability of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors to incur indebtedness, grant liens, make investments, engage in mergers and acquisitions, and pay dividends and other restricted payments, and certain financial maintenance covenants. At June 30, 2026, we were subject to the following financial covenants under our Credit Facility: (A) a Total Leverage Ratio not to exceed 5.00 to 1.00 and (B) a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Facility) of not less than 1.20 to 1.00 as of the end of any period of four consecutive fiscal quarters. These financial maintenance covenants are calculated for the Company and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis. We were in compliance with all of the covenants contained in our Credit Facility at June 30, 2026.

Our Credit Facility and acquisition debt consisted of the following (in thousands):


	June 30, 2026		December 31, 2025
Credit Facility	$	124,000	$	126,700
Debt issuance costs, net of accumulated amortization of $3,477 and $3,300, respectively	(1,088)		(1,265)
Total Credit Facility	$	122,912	$	125,435

Acquisition debt	$	6,205	$	6,188
Less: current portion	(794)		(607)
Total acquisition debt, net of current portion	$	5,411	$	5,581

At June 30, 2026, we had outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility of $124.0 million. We also had one letter of credit for $2.2 million under the Credit Facility. The letter of credit will expire on November 25, 2026, and is expected to automatically renew annually and secures our obligations under our various self-insured policies. At June 30, 2026, we had $123.8 million of availability under the Credit Facility.

Outstanding borrowings under our Credit Facility bear interest at a prime rate or the SOFR rate, plus an applicable margin based on our leverage ratio. At June 30, 2026, the prime rate margin was equivalent to 1.125% and the SOFR term margin was 2.225%. The weighted average interest rate on our Credit Facility was 6.0% and 6.8% for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The weighted average interest rate on our Credit Facility was 5.9% and 6.9% for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

We have no material assets or operations independent of the Subsidiary Guarantors, as all of our assets and operations are held and conducted by the Subsidiary Guarantors. Additionally, we do not currently have any significant restrictions on our ability to receive dividends or loans from any Subsidiary Guarantors.

11. BUSINESS COMBINATIONS

On May 27, 2026, we acquired a business consisting of one funeral home for approximately $4.5 million. We acquired substantially all of the assets and assumed certain operating liabilities of this business.

The following table summarizes the breakdown of the preliminary purchase price allocation for the business described above (in thousands):


	Preliminary Purchase Price Allocation
Current assets	$	58

Property, plant, and equipment	3,024

Goodwill	1,096
Intangible and other non-current assets	322




Purchase price	$	4,500

The purchase accounting is preliminary as we have not finalized our assessment of the fair value because there has been insufficient time between the acquisition date and the issuance of these financial statements to complete our review and the final determination of fair value.

The primary reasons for the acquisition that contributed to the recognition of goodwill include the expansion of our footprint in strategic markets.

The pro forma impact of this acquisition on prior periods is not presented, as the impact is not significant to our reported results. The results of the acquired business is reflected in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations from the date of acquisition.

On September 9, 2025, we acquired a business consisting of six funeral homes, one cemetery, and one cremation focused business in the Orlando, FL area for approximately $49.0 million. The purchase price consisted of $47.0 million in cash at closing and $2.0 million of deferred purchase price payments. The net present value of such future deferred purchase price payments was $1.3 million. We acquired substantially all of the assets and assumed certain operating liabilities of these businesses.

On September 17, 2025, we acquired a business consisting of two funeral homes in the Pensacola, FL area for $9.5 million in cash. We acquired substantially all of the assets and assumed certain operating liabilities of this business.

The primary reasons for the acquisitions that contributed to the recognition of goodwill include enhancement of our footprint in strategic markets and the addition of deferred revenue that will enhance our long-term stability.

The pro forma impact of these acquisitions on prior periods is not presented, as the impact is not significant to our reported results. The results of the acquired businesses are reflected in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations from the date of acquisition.

The purchase price allocation was updated for immaterial measurement-period adjustments; no other material changes to the acquisition accounting were identified. The purchase accounting is preliminary as we have not finalized our assessment of the fair value because there has been insufficient time between the acquisition date and the issuance of these financial statements to complete our review and the final determination of fair value. We are also currently reviewing the allocation of goodwill between segments.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

OVERVIEW

General

We operate in two business segments: Funeral Home Operations, which currently accounts for approximately 66% of our total revenue and Cemetery Operations, which currently accounts for approximately 34% of our total revenue. At June 30, 2026, we operated 155 funeral homes in 24 states and 28 cemeteries in 9 states.

COMPANY DEVELOPMENTS

ATM Program

On May 6, 2026, the Company announced it had entered into an Equity Distribution Agreement with Oppenheimer & Co. Inc. and Raymond James & Associates, Inc., as sales agents (together, the “Sales Agents”), with respect to an at-the-market equity offering program (the “ATM Program”) under which the Company may offer and sell, from time to time, shares of its common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $100.0 million (“Shares”) through or to the Sales Agents, as sales agents and/or principals. To date, we have not sold any Shares under our ATM Program.

Board of Directors

On May 12, 2026, upon the recommendation of the Corporate Governance Committee of the Company, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) unanimously elected Douglas Meehan to serve as the Chair of the Compensation Committee, effective on that date. Mr. Meehan has been a director of the Company since 2018. He succeeds Somer Webb, who continues to serve on the Board and as a member of the Audit, Compensation, and Corporate Governance Committees.

Macroeconomic and Inflationary Factors

We continue to monitor the macroeconomic, geopolitical, and certain policy factors and their potential impact, if any, on our business. During the first half of 2026, consumer discretionary spending has reflected mixed trends, with higher-income consumers appearing more resilient and moderate-income consumers exhibiting more cautious behavior, which could result in an overall reduction in consumer spending and demand for products and services. These trends continue to be influenced by moderating, but still elevated, inflation, evolving tariff and trade policies, geopolitical developments, and volatility in energy prices. Although certain indicators suggest that inflation has moderated, these factors continue to create uncertainty regarding future cost trends and broader economic conditions. Inflation and other macroeconomic conditions may negatively impact consumer discretionary spending, including the amount consumers are able to spend on our services. To date, these conditions have not materially impacted our business, and our industry has historically demonstrated resilience during similar adverse economic and market environments.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Overview

Our primary sources of liquidity and capital resources are internally generated cash flows from operating activities and availability under our Credit Facility.

We generate cash in our operations primarily from atneed sales and delivery of preneed sales. We also generate cash from earnings on our cemetery perpetual care trusts. Based on our recent operating results, current cash position and anticipated future cash flows, we do not anticipate any significant liquidity constraints in the foreseeable future. We have the ability to draw on our Credit Facility, as needed, subject to its customary terms and conditions. For additional details related to our debt and lease obligations, including our Credit Facility, Acquisition Debt and Senior Notes, refer to Notes 10 to our unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contained in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

For 2026, our plan is to remain focused on executing our growth strategy and other strategic objectives. This includes prioritizing our capital allocation for potential strategic growth acquisitions, capital expenditures, debt repayments, the payment of dividends, and other general corporate purposes as allowed under our Credit Facility. We expect to fund these payments using cash on hand and borrowings under our Credit Facility. We believe that our existing and anticipated cash resources, including, as needed, additional borrowings or other financings that we may be able to obtain, will be sufficient to meet our anticipated working capital requirements, capital expenditures, scheduled debt payments, commitments, potential growth acquisitions, and dividends for the next 12 months, as well as our long-term financial obligations.

However, if our capital allocations and expenditures or acquisition plans change, we may need to access the capital markets, including, for example, through our ATM Program, or seek further borrowing capacity from our lenders to obtain additional funding and we may not be able to obtain such funding on terms and conditions that are acceptable to us. Further, to the extent operating cash flow or access to and cost of financing sources are materially different than expected, future liquidity may be adversely affected. For additional information regarding known material factors that could cause cash flow or access to and cost of finance sources to differ from our expectations, please read Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors”.

Cash Flows

We began 2026 with $1.7 million in cash and ended the quarter with $2.6 million in cash. As of June 30, 2026, we had borrowings of $124.0 million outstanding on our Credit Facility compared to $126.7 million as of December 31, 2025.

Net income	$	12,272	$	11,739	$	533	4.5	%

Revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2026 increased $0.8 million, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025, primarily due to an increase in acquisition and financial revenue that was partially offset by a decline in divested and comparable revenue. In our Funeral segment, we experienced a 4.7% increase in the average revenue per funeral contract, and a 21.1% increase in preneed insurance contracts sold; partially offset by a 4.0% decrease in funeral contract volume. In our Cemetery segment, we experienced a 5.0% increase in preneed sales production and a 17.3% increase in the average price per interment right (property) sold; partially offset by a 14.0% decrease in the number of preneed interment rights (property) sold.

Gross profit for the three months ended June 30, 2026 decreased $0.9 million compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025, primarily due to an increase in depreciation and amortization.

Net income for the three months ended June 30, 2026 increased $0.5 million, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025, primarily due to a $0.9 million decrease in general and administrative expenses, a $0.4 million decrease in interest expense, and a $0.2 million decrease in income tax expense; partially offset by a $0.9 million decrease in gross profit contribution from our businesses.

Below are our consolidated financial highlights (in thousands except for volumes and averages):

Net income		$	25,764	$	32,665	$	(6,901)	(21.1)	%

Revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2026 decreased $0.1 million compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025, primarily due to a decrease in divested and comparable revenue offset by growth in acquisition and financial revenue. In our Funeral segment we experienced a 6.0% decrease in funeral contract volume which was partially offset by a 3.8% increase in the average revenue per funeral contract, and a 14.9% increase in preneed insurance contracts sold. In our Cemetery segment, we experienced an 8.9% decrease in the number of preneed interment rights (property) sold partially offset a 14.1% increase in the average price per interment right sold.

Gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2026 decreased $0.1 million, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025, primarily due to the decline in revenue described above partially offset by effective cost management.

Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2026 decreased $6.9 million, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025, primarily due to a prior year net gain on divestitures, impairment charges, and sale of real property of $7.7 million; partially offset by a $0.8 million decrease in interest expense and a $0.7 million decrease in income tax expense.

Further discussion of revenue and the components of gross profit for our funeral home and cemetery segments is presented under “– Results of Operations.”

Further discussion of general, administrative and other expenses, interest expense, income taxes and other components of income and expenses are presented under “– Other Financial Statement Items.”

REPORTING AND NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

We also present our financial performance in our “Condensed Operating and Financial Trend Report” (“Trend Report”) as reported in our earnings release for the three months ended June 30, 2026, dated August 5, 2026, and discussed in the corresponding earnings conference call. This Trend Report is used as a supplemental financial statement by management and investors to compare our current financial performance with our previous results and with the performance of other companies. Additionally, management employs segment gross profit for product pricing evaluation and uses segment adjusted operating profit to assess each segment’s performance by comparing results. 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. The Trend Report is a non-GAAP statement that also provides insight into underlying trends in our business.

Below is a reconciliation of gross profit (a GAAP financial measure) to adjusted operating profit (a non-GAAP financial measure) (in thousands):


	Three months ended June 30,				Six months ended June 30,
	2026		2025		2026		2025
Gross profit	$	35,044	$	35,935	$	73,684	$	73,777

Cemetery property amortization	3,129		2,241		5,124		4,069

Adjusted operating profit margin is defined as adjusted operating profit as a percentage of revenue.

Further discussion of adjusted operating profit for our funeral home and cemetery segments is presented under “Results of Operations.”

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following is a discussion of our results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025.

The term “comparable” in the funeral home and cemetery segments refers to all funeral homes and cemeteries that we owned for the entire period beginning January 1, 2025 and ending June 30, 2026.

The term “acquired” refers to the funeral homes and cemeteries acquired as discussed in Note 11 to our unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contained in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

The term “divested” refers to the funeral homes and cemeteries sold and/or merged as discussed in Note 1 to our unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contained in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

The term “ancillary” in the funeral home segment represents our flower shop, monument business, pet cremation business, and online cremation businesses.

Cemetery property amortization, field depreciation expense, and regional and unallocated funeral and cemetery costs, are not included in adjusted operating profit, a non-GAAP financial measure. Adding back these items will result in gross profit, a GAAP financial measure.

Funeral Home Segment

The following table sets forth certain information regarding our revenue and adjusted operating profit for our funeral home operations (in thousands):


	Three months ended June 30,
	2026		2025		Inc/(Dec)		% Change
Revenue:
Comparable	$	55,663	$	57,030	$	(1,367)	(2.4)	%

Total	$	65,692	$	65,247	$	445	0.7	%

Adjusted operating profit

Acquired	734		—		734		100.0	%
Divested	25		490		(465)		(94.9)	%
Ancillary	132		32		100		312.5	%
Other	5,994		4,175		1,819		43.6	%
Total	$	27,180	$	26,250	$	930	3.5	%

The following measures reflect significant metrics from comparable operations over the comparative period:

Contract volume	9,639		9,985		(346)		(3.5)	%
Average revenue per contract, excluding preneed funeral trust earnings	$	5,775	$	5,712	$	63	1.1	%
Average revenue per contract, including preneed funeral trust earnings	$	6,088	$	5,869	$	219	3.7	%
Cremation rate	60.6%		61.2%		(0.6)%		(1.0)%

Funeral home comparable revenue decreased $1.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025. The decline in comparable revenue is primarily driven by a 3.5% decrease in comparable contract volume, which is partially offset by a 1.1% increase in the average revenue per contract excluding preneed funeral trust earnings. Average revenue per contract, including trust earnings, increased by 3.7%, primarily reflecting higher preneed interest recognized on fulfilled funeral and service and merchandise contracts.

Funeral home comparable adjusted operating profit for the three months ended June 30, 2026 decreased $1.3 million when compared to the same period in 2025. The decrease was primarily driven by an increase in operating expenses as a percentage of revenue, resulting in a 130 basis points decline in comparable adjusted operating profit margin to 36.5%. The increase in operating expenses was primarily attributable to higher salaries and benefits, together with higher general and administrative expenses, and promotional expenses.

Ancillary revenue decreased $0.1 million, while ancillary adjusted operating profit increased $0.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025. The decrease in ancillary revenue is primarily attributable to lower activity in our online cremation businesses. Despite the decline in revenue, ancillary adjusted operating profit improved due to lower operating expenses.

Other revenue and other adjusted operating profit, which consists of preneed funeral insurance commissions and earnings from delivered preneed funeral trust and insurance contracts, increased $1.8 million each, for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to the same period in 2025. This increase was primarily driven by higher funeral trust income and growth in general agency commission income earned on the sale of preneed insurance policies.

The following table sets forth certain information regarding our revenue and adjusted operating profit for our funeral home operations (in thousands):


	Six months ended June 30,
	2026		2025		Inc/(Dec)		% Change

Total	$	58,778	$	59,429	$	(651)	(1.1)	%

The following measures reflect significant operating metrics over the comparative period:

Contract volume	20,289		21,283		(994)		(4.7)	%
Average revenue per contract, excluding preneed funeral trust earnings	$	5,859	$	5,778	$	81	1.4	%
Average revenue per contract, including preneed funeral trust earnings	$	6,094	$	5,940	$	154	2.6	%

Cremation rate	60.5%		60.6%		(0.1)%		(0.2)	%

Funeral home comparable revenue decreased $4.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025. The decline in comparable revenue was primarily driven by a 4.7% decrease in comparable contract volume as well as a 1.4% increase in the average revenue per contract excluding preneed interest. The decline in contract volume primarily reflects a more normalized mortality environment compared to recent years, contributing to lower funeral case volumes across our comparable funeral homes.

Funeral home comparable adjusted operating profit for the six months ended June 30, 2026, decreased $3.8 million when compared to the same period in 2025. The decrease was primarily driven by an increase in operating expenses as a percentage of revenue, resulting in 180 basis points decline in comparable adjusted operating profit margin to 39.1%. The increase in operating expenses primarily reflects higher salaries and benefits, general and administrative expenses, promotional expenses, and facilities and grounds expenses.

Ancillary revenue decreased $0.2 million, while ancillary adjusted operating profit increased $0.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025. The decrease in ancillary revenue is primarily due to a decline in our online cremation business. Despite the decline in revenue, ancillary adjusted operating profit increased due to lower operating expenses.

Other revenue and other adjusted operating profit, which consists of preneed funeral insurance commissions and earnings from delivered preneed funeral trust and insurance contracts, increased $2.5 million and $2.9 million, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025. This increase was primarily driven by higher funeral trust income and growth in general agency commission income earned on the sale of preneed insurance policies.

Cemetery Segment

The following table sets forth certain information regarding our revenue and adjusted operating profit for our cemetery operations (in thousands):

Other	2,723		3,437		(714)		(20.8)%
Total	$	18,002	$	18,474	$	(472)	(2.6)%

The following measures reflect the significant comparable metrics over this comparative period:

Preneed revenue as a percentage of operating revenue	72.1%		70.4%		1.7%		2.4%
Preneed revenue (in thousands)	$	23,927	$	23,446	$	481	2.1%
Atneed revenue (in thousands)	$	9,240	$	9,863	$	(623)	(6.3)%

Average price per interment right sold	$	6,950	$	5,894	$	1,056	17.9%

Cemetery comparable revenue decreased $0.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025. The decrease was primarily driven by a 17.0% decrease in the number of preneed interment rights (property) sold, which was partially offset by a 17.9% increase in the average price per interment right sold. Cemetery comparable atneed revenue, which represents approximately 27.9% of our total operating revenue, decreased $0.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to the same period in 2025, primarily due to a 6.1% decline in atneed recognized merchandise and service revenue and a 6.9% decrease in recognized atneed property revenue.

Cemetery comparable adjusted operating profit decreased $0.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025. The decrease was primarily driven by a 0.4% increase in operating expense with the largest contributor in salaries and benefits, which increased 1.6% relative to recognized revenue. As a result, comparable operating profit margin decreased 50 basis points to 44.5%.

Other revenue and other adjusted operating profit decreased $0.6 million and $0.7 million, respectively for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025. The decline is primarily attributable to lower perpetual care trust fund earnings, while the greater decrease in adjusted operating profit reflects the timing of certain operating expenses recognized between periods.

The following table sets forth certain information regarding our revenue and adjusted operating profit for our cemetery operations (in thousands):

The following measures reflect the significant operating metrics over this comparative period:

Preneed revenue as a percentage of operating revenue	70.8%		69.2%		1.6%		2.3	%
Preneed revenue (in thousands)	$	44,393	$	42,366	$	2,027	4.8	%

Average price per interment right sold	$	6,670	$	5,724	$	946	16.5	%

Cemetery comparable revenue increased $1.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025. The increase was primarily driven by a 16.5% increase in the average price per preneed interment right sold, partially offset by a 12.7% decline in the number of preneed interment rights sold. Cemetery atneed revenue, which represents approximately 29.2% of our total operating revenue, decreased $0.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to the same period of the prior year, primarily due to a 6.8% decline in atneed property sold across our cemetery portfolio.

Cemetery comparable adjusted operating profit increased $1.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025. The increase was driven by a 0.9% decrease in operating expenses as a percentage of operating revenue, primarily reflecting lower promotional expenses and facilities and grounds insurance costs as a percentage of revenue. As a result, comparable operating profit margin increased 90 basis points to 44.0%.

Other revenue and other adjusted operating profit, which consist of preneed cemetery trust revenue and preneed cemetery finance charges, decreased $0.4 million and $0.5 million, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025. The decline is primarily attributable to lower perpetual care trust fund earnings, while the greater decrease in adjusted operating profit reflects the timing of certain operating expenses recognized between periods.

Cemetery property amortization. Cemetery property amortization totaled $3.1 million and $5.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, respectively, an increase of $0.9 million and $1.1 million compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively. The increases were primarily driven by a higher mix of mausoleum property sales, which carry significantly higher associated property costs than traditional cemetery property sales.

Field depreciation. Depreciation expense for our field businesses totaled $3.4 million and $6.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, respectively, an increase of $0.1 million and $0.2 million compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively.

Regional and unallocated funeral and cemetery costs. Regional and unallocated funeral and cemetery costs consist of salaries and benefits for regional management, field incentive compensation, and other related costs for field infrastructure. Regional and unallocated funeral and cemetery costs totaled $3.7 million and $3.3 million, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025, an increase of $0.4 million, primarily driven by an increase in salaries and benefits. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, Regional and unallocated funeral and cemetery costs were $8.0 million and $8.5 million, respectively, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025, a decrease of $0.5 million, primarily driven by a decrease in leadership and development expenses offset by increases in salaries and benefits and transportation costs.

Other Financial Statement Items

General, administrative, and other. General, administrative, and other expenses, which include salaries and benefits and cash and equity incentive compensation for our Houston support office, totaled $11.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, a decrease of $0.9 million compared to the same period in 2025, primarily driven by lower incentive compensation coupled with an increased focus on cost management across all aspects of our business. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, general, administrative, and other expenses totaled $24.1 million, an increase of $0.1 million compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025.

Net (gain) loss on divestitures and impairment charges. The components of Net (gain) loss on divestitures and impairment charges are as follows (in thousands):


	Three months ended June 30,				Six months ended June 30,
	2026		2025		2026		2025

Net (gain) loss on disposals of fixed assets	(6)		—		(15)		50
Total	$	90	$	(1)	$	368	$	(5,771)

During the three months ended June 30, 2026, we sold one funeral home for a loss of $47.0 thousand. We also recognized an impairment of $0.1 million and $0.3 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, respectively.

During the six months ended June 30, 2025, we sold two funeral homes and three cemeteries for a gain of $5.9 million. We also recognized an impairment of $0.1 million on land held for sale during the six months ended June 30, 2025.

Interest expense. Interest expense related to its respective debt arrangement is as follows (in thousands):


	Three months ended June 30,				Six months ended June 30,
	2026		2025		2026		2025

Other, net. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, we recorded a $2.0 million gain on the sale of other real property not used in business operations. We did not record any gain or loss activity during the six months ended June 30, 2026.

Income taxes. Income tax expense including discrete items totaled $4.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, a decrease of $0.2 million compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025. Our effective tax was 28.5% and 30.4% for the three months ended June 30, 2026, respectively, primarily related to a decrease in non-deductible officer compensation.

Income tax expense including discrete items totaled $9.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, a decrease of $0.7 million compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025. Our effective tax rate was 27.5% and 24.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, primarily related to a decrease in excess tax benefits recognized on the settlement of employee share-based awards and non-deductible officer compensation.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

The preparation of our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses. Understanding our accounting policies and the extent to which our management uses judgment, assumptions and estimates in applying these policies is integral to understanding our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Our critical accounting policies are more fully described in Part II, Item 8 “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” in Note 1 in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.

We have identified Business Combinations and Goodwill as those accounting policies that require significant judgments, assumptions and estimates and that have a significant impact on our financial condition and results of operations. These policies are considered critical because they may result in fluctuations in our reported results from period to period due to the significant judgments, estimates and assumptions about complex and inherently uncertain matters and because the use of different judgments, assumptions or estimates could have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations. Actual results may differ from these estimates and such estimates may change if the underlying conditions or assumptions change. Historical performance should not be viewed as indicative of future performance because there can be no assurance the margins, operating income and net earnings, as a percentage of revenue, will be consistent from period to period. We evaluate our critical accounting estimates and judgments required by our policies on an ongoing basis and update them as appropriate based on changing conditions.

Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

For quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk, see Part II, Item 7(a), “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk,” in our 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Our exposure to market risk has not changed materially since December 31, 2025.

Item 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Management’s Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms, and to ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on such evaluation, our principal executive and principal financial officers have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective at June 30, 2026 and that the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q fairly present, in all material respects, our financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented in conformity with US GAAP.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There was no change in our system of internal control over financial reporting (defined in Rules 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the fiscal quarter covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

We and our subsidiaries are parties to a number of legal proceedings that arise from time to time in the ordinary course of our business. While the outcome of these proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, we do not expect these matters to have a material adverse effect on our financial statements.

We self-insure against certain risks and carry insurance with coverage and coverage limits for risk in excess of the coverage amounts consistent with our assessment of risks in our business and of an acceptable level of financial exposure. Although there can be no assurance that self-insurance reserves and insurance will be sufficient to mitigate all damages, claims, or contingencies, we believe that the reserves and our insurance provides reasonable coverage for known asserted and unasserted claims. In the event we sustain a loss from a claim and the insurance carrier disputes coverage or coverage limits, we may record a charge in a different period than the recovery, if any, from the insurance carrier.

Denning v. Carriage Services, Inc., et al., Superior Court of California, Ventura County, Case No. 2024 CU OE 028098. On July 29, 2024, a wage and hour class action was filed against the Company and several of its subsidiaries. Plaintiff, a former employee, seeks monetary damages on behalf of herself and other similarly situated current and former non-exempt employees as the putative class for the alleged failure to pay legally mandated compensation and reimbursement expenses. As of June 30, 2026, we are unable to reasonably estimate the possible loss or ranges of loss, if any. The prospective class has not been certified by a court of competent jurisdiction and the Company intends to vigorously defend itself in all respects.

Frost v. Rolling Hills Memorial Park, Superior Court of California, Contra Costa County, Case No. C24-02653. On October 4, 2024, a consumer class action was filed against the Company’s subsidiary, Rolling Hills Memorial Park. Plaintiff, an owner of an interment right and purchaser of merchandise and services from Rolling Hills Memorial Park, seeks monetary damages on behalf of herself and other similarly situated current and former consumers and owners of interment rights as the putative class for the alleged failure to properly set cemetery merchandise and maintain the perpetual care cemetery. As of June 30, 2026, we are unable to reasonably estimate the possible loss or ranges of loss, if any. The prospective class has not been certified by a court of competent jurisdiction and the Company intends to vigorously defend itself in all respects.

Item 1A.Risk Factors.

We are supplementing the risk factors set out under Part I, Item 1A “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, with the updated risk factor set out below. Readers should carefully consider the risk factors discussed in Part I, Item 1A “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. The risks described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, are not the only risks we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition or future results.

Stockholders may experience future dilution as a result of future equity offerings and issuances.

In the future, we may offer additional shares of our common stock or other securities convertible into or exchangeable for our common stock, including under our ATM Program, and our then-existing stockholders may experience dilution as a result. The price per share at which we sell additional shares of our common stock, or securities convertible or exchangeable into common stock, in future transactions may be higher or lower than the price per share paid by our then current stockholders. Investors purchasing shares or other securities in the future could also have rights superior to existing stockholders.
