SECURITY NATIONAL FINANCIAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements September 30, 2005 (Unaudited) 1. Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2005. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2004 included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K (file number 0-9341). The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The estimates susceptible to significant change are those used in determining the liability for future policy benefits and claims, those used in determining valuation allowances for mortgage loans on real estate, and those used in determining the estimated future costs for pre-need sales. Although some variability is inherent in these estimates, management believes the amounts provided are fairly stated in all material respects. 2. Comprehensive Income For the three months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004, total comprehensive income amounted to $2,586,656 and $515,113, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004, total comprehensive income amounted to $3,292,092 and $1,988,307, respectively. 3. Stock-Based Compensation The Company accounts for stock-based compensation under the recognition and measurement principles of APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related interpretations. The Company has adopted SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation". In accordance with the provisions of SFAS 123, the Company has elected to continue to apply Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" ("APB Opinion No. 25"), and related interpretations in accounting for its stock option plans. In accordance with APB Opinion No. 25, no compensation cost has been recognized for these plans. Had compensation cost for these plans been determined based upon the fair value at the grant date consistent with the methodology prescribed under SFAS No. 123, net earnings for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004 would have been reduced by the following:

Merger Transaction Effective January 1, 2005, Security National Life and SSLIC Holding Company, a wholly owned subsidiary of Security National Life, completed a merger transaction with Southern Security Life Insurance Company. Under the terms of the merger and pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Reorganization, dated August 25, 2004, among Security National Life, SSLIC Holding Company and Southern Security Life Insurance Company, including the amendment thereto dated December 27, 2004, SSLIC Holding Company was merged with and into Southern Security Life Insurance Company, which resulted in (i) Southern Security Life Insurance Company becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of Security National Life Insurance Company, and (ii) the unaffiliated stockholders of Southern Security Life Insurance Company, holding an aggregate of 490,816 shares of common stock, or 23.3% of the outstanding shares, becoming entitled to receive $3.84 in cash for each issued and outstanding share of their common stock of Southern Security Life Insurance Company, or an aggregate of $1,884,733. As a result of the merger, the separate existence of SSLIC Holding Company ceased as Southern Security Life Insurance Company became the surviving corporation of the merger. Southern Security Life Insurance Company continues to be governed by the laws of the State of Florida, and its separate corporate existence continues unaffected by the merger. In addition, as a result of the merger, Security National Life owns all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Southern Security Life Insurance Company. Security National Financial Corporation, through its affiliates, Security National Life Insurance Company and SSLIC Holding Company, owned 76.7% of the Company's outstanding common shares prior to the merger. The minority shareholders interest in assets and liabilities were recorded at book value. Due to the purchase price of the minority shares being less than book value, there was a gain of $1,678,463. This gain was used to reduce the Deferred Acquisition Costs by $1,187,044 and Cost of Insurance Acquired by $491,419. Proforma disclosure information, as though the business combination has been completed as of January 1, 2004, has not been included because the change would not have been material. The purpose of the merger is to terminate the registration of the common stock of Southern Security Life Insurance Company under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (by reducing the number of its stockholders of record to fewer than 300 stockholders) and the Nasdaq listing of the common stock, reduce expenses associated with such registration and listing, and provide the stockholders an opportunity to sell their shares in an illiquid trading market without incurring brokerage commissions. As a result of becoming a non-reporting company, Southern Security Life Insurance Company is no longer required to file periodic reports with the SEC, including among other things, annual reports on Form 10-K and quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, and is no longer subject to the SEC's proxy rules. In addition, its common stock is no longer eligible for trading on the Nasdaq SmallCap Market. 7. Recent Accounting Pronouncements In January 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Interpretation No. 46, "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an Interpretation of ARB No. 51", and subsequently issued a revision to this Interpretation in December 2003. This Interpretation addresses the consolidation by business enterprises of variable interest entities as defined in the Interpretation. The Interpretation applies to those variable interest entities considered to be special-purpose entities no later than December 31, 2003. The Interpretation must also be applied to all other variable interest entities no later than March 31, 2005. The adoption of Interpretation No. 46 did not have a material impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations.
SECURITY NATIONAL FINANCIAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements September 30, 2005, (Unaudited) In December 2004, FASB revised SFAS 123 to Share-Based Payment ("SFAS 123(R)"). SFAS 123(R) provides additional guidance on determining whether certain financial instruments awarded in share-based payment transactions are liabilities. SFAS 123(R) also requires that the cost of all share-based transactions be recorded in the financial statements. The revised pronouncement must be adopted by the Company by January 1, 2006. Implementation of SFAS 123(R) will not have a significant impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements in the period of implementation. However, any future stock options granted could have a significant impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements. In June 2005, the FASB issued SFAS No. 154, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections, a replacement of APB Opinion No. 20, Accounting Changes, and FASB No. 3, Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim Financial Statements. Statement 154 applies to all voluntary changes in accounting principle, and changes the requirements for accounting for and reporting of a change in accounting principle. Statement 154 requires retrospective application to prior periods' financial statements of a voluntary change in accounting principle unless it is impracticable. It is effective for accounting changes and corrections of errors made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005. Earlier application is permitted for accounting changes and corrections of errors made occurring in fiscal years beginning after June 1, 2005. The Company expects that the adoption of SFAS 154 will not have a material impact on its financial statements. 8. Other Business Activities The Company has determined that a marketing employee of Security National Life Insurance Company has embezzled a total of $275,000 from the Company. The Company's audit committee has conducted a formal investigation of the matter and advised the Company's Board of Directors and registered public independent accountants of the embezzlement. Management is in the process of attempting to recover a portion of the embezzled funds. The Company has fidelity bond coverage with a $50,000 deductible, but there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in obtaining any recovery of the embezzled funds from the insurer. The Company has accrued a liability of $200,000 in order to reflect the loss that may occur from this embezzlement as well as potential additional losses related to the employees mismanagement of the related business activity. The City of Phoenix has commenced condemnation proceedings, in order to construct a light rail facility on the Camelback Funeral Home property. The condemnation has resulted in the cessation of funeral operations at Camelback on January 1, 2005. The land ($289,289) and building ($390,480) are being carried at December 31, 2004 book value pending finalization of the purchase contract and sale price, of which the City of Phoenix has placed $1,200,000 in escrow. 9. Subsequent Event On September 23, 2005, the Company, through its subsidiaries, Security National Life Insurance Company and Southern Security Life Insurance Company, entered into a stock purchase agreement with Memorial Insurance Company of America, an Arkansas domiciled insurance company ("Memorial Insurance Company"), to purchase all of the outstanding shares of common stock of Memorial Insurance Company. Under the terms of the stock purchase agreement, the shareholders of Memorial Insurance Company will receive $13,500,000 in consideration for all of the outstanding common shares of Memorial Insurance Company, with each shareholder to receive a pro rata share of the total amount of the purchase consideration based upon the number of shares such shareholder owns. The shareholders will receive a total $13,500,000 for their shares by means of distributions, with Security National Life Insurance Company and Southern Security Life Insurance Company simultaneously contributing sufficient capital and surplus to Memorial Insurance Company to maintain its status as an admitted insurer in good standing in the state of Arkansas.
SECURITY NATIONAL FINANCIAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements September 30, 2005, (Unaudited) For federal and state tax purposes, the transaction will be treated as a part sale, part redemption of the Memorial Insurance Company stock. At the closing of the transaction, the shareholders of Memorial Insurance Company agree to sell their shares of Memorial Insurance Company stock to Security National Life Insurance Company and Southern Security Life Insurance Company, such shares representing all of the issued and outstanding stock of Memorial Insurance Company, free and clear of all liens, claims, and encumbrances. Following completion of the transaction, Memorial Insurance Company will become a wholly owned subsidiary of Southern Security Life Insurance Company. As of December 31, 2004, Memorial Insurance Company had 100,170 policies in force and 50 agents. For the year ended December 31, 2004, Memorial Insurance Company had revenues of $4,893,000 and net income of $2,158,000. As of December 31, 2004, the statutory assets and the capital and surplus of Memorial Insurance Company were $45,048,000 and $12,303,000, respectfully. Under the terms of the stock purchase agreement, the shareholders agree, where applicable following the closing of the transaction, to maintain any existing policies from Memorial Insurance Company that were previously sold through such shareholders' funeral and mortuary businesses and to avoid replacing any of such policies with the policies of other insurance companies. The shareholders further agree to use their reasonable best efforts to support the business and operations of Memorial Insurance Company, including, where applicable, to maintain a business relationship with Memorial Insurance Company to the extent such a business relationship existed prior to such closing. Moreover, Security National Life Insurance Company and Southern Security Life Insurance Company agree to maintain the corporate offices of Memorial Insurance Company at its current location in Blytheville, Arkansas. Furthermore, Security National Life Insurance Company and Southern Security Life Insurance Company agree to use their best efforts, following the closing, to assist Memorial Insurance Company in retaining the sales agents and brokers in its business and operations. Security National Life Insurance Company anticipates completing the transaction on or about December 9, 2005. The obligations to complete the transaction are contingent upon approval of the transaction by the Arkansas Insurance Department. A hearing has been scheduled on December 9, 2005 with the commissioner of the Arkansas Insurance Department to consider the request by Security National Life Insurance Company and Southern Security Life Insurance Company to approve the transaction. At the closing of the transaction, Security National Life Insurance Company and Memorial Insurance Company each agree to enter into a reinsurance agreement to reinsure the majority of the in force business of Memorial Insurance Company to Security National Life Insurance Company, as reinsurer, to the extent permitted by the Arkansas Insurance Department. The parties to the reinsurance agreement will consist of Security National Life Insurance Company, Memorial Insurance Company, and the Arkansas Insurance Department. The assets and liabilities to be reinsured under the reinsurance agreement shall be deposited into a trust account, in which Zions Bancorporation, a national banking corporation, has agreed to act as trustee. Under the terms of the reinsurance agreement, in the event of the insolvency of Security National Life Insurance Company, Zions Bancorporation will transfer the assets and liabilities held in trust to the Arkansas Insurance Department for purposes of the administration of the assets and liabilities with respect to such insolvency. On October 20, 2005, Security National Life Insurance Company and Southern Security Life Insurance Company submitted a Form A application to the Arkansas Insurance Department. The Form A application included a proposed reinsurance agreement and a trust agreement that Security National Life Insurance Company intends to enter into with Memorial Insurance Company and the Arkansas Insurance Department.
SECURITY NATIONAL FINANCIAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements September 30, 2005, (Unaudited) Upon approval of the reinsurance agreement by the Arkansas insurance department, certain insurance business and operations of Memorial Insurance Company will be transferred to Security National Life Insurance Company, as of the effective date of the reinsurance agreement, including all policies in force as of the effective date thereof, except for certain policies. Any future insurance business by Memorial Insurance Company will be covered by this reinsurance agreement. It is anticipated that all of the business and operations of Memorial Insurance Company will be transferred to Security National Life Insurance Company under the terms of the reinsurance agreement, except for capital and surplus of approximately $1,000,000. Thus, it is estimated that approximately $30,091,000 in assets and liabilities will be transferred from Memorial Insurance Company to Security National Life Insurance Company pursuant to the reinsurance agreement. At the closing of the stock purchase transaction, Memorial Insurance Company will issue a $30,091,000 note to Security National Life Insurance Company payable, together with accrued interest, within 30 days from the date of issuance. The note is to be repaid in cash or in assets to be transferred to Security National Life Insurance Company. The note will be secured by the assets owned by Memorial Insurance Company. In addition, Southern Security Life Insurance Company will contribute $2,200,000 to Memorial Insurance Company at closing in consideration for the surplus note. It is anticipated that Memorial Insurance Company will repay the surplus note in early 2006 using the proceeds from the sale of the investments in common stocks currently held in its investment portfolio. 10. Derivative Loan Commitments In the third quarter 2005 the Company's mortgage banking activities implemented new practices as it relates to interest rate lock commitments and forward commitments to sell loans to third-party investors. The Company has also implemented a hedging strategy for these transactions. A mortgage 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 inception of the rate lock. Such a commitment is referred to as a derivative loan commitment if the loan that will result from exercise of the commitment will be held for sale under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133 ("SFAS 133"), Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, as amended by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 149 ("SFAS 149"), Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. As such, loan commitments that are derivatives and have an effective hedging strategy, must be recognized at fair value on the consolidated balance sheet with changes in their fair values recorded as part of other comprehensive income from mortgage banking operations. In determining the fair value of its derivative loan commitments for economic purposes, the Company considers the value that would be generated when the loan arising from exercise of the loan commitment is sold to third party investors. That value consists of the price, including mortgage servicing release values, that is expected upon the sale of the loans to third-party investors. In estimating their fair values, the Company also assigns a probability to a loan commitment based on an expectation that it will not be exercised and the loan will not be funded. This probability is commonly referred to as fallout.
SECURITY NATIONAL FINANCIAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements September 30, 2005, (Unaudited) The Company is exposed to price risk due to the potential impact of changes in interest rates on the values of the derivative loan commitments from the time a derivative 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 derivative loan commitments that will be exercised (i.e., the number of loan commitments that will be funded) fluctuates. The probability that a loan will not be funded within the terms of the commitment is driven by a number of factors - in particular, the change, if any, in mortgage rates subsequent to inception of the rate lock. However, many borrowers continue to exercise derivative loan commitments even when interest rates have fallen. In general, the probability of funding increases if mortgage rates rise and decreases if mortgage rates fall. This is due primarily to the relative attractiveness of current mortgage rates compared to the applicant's committed rate. The probability that a loan will not be funded within the terms of the derivative loan commitments 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 observed 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 it expects to be funded within the terms of the derivative loan commitments and are updated periodically to reflect the most current data. Once a loan is closed, it is classified as a loan receivable-held for sale. The Company utilizes various derivative instruments to economically hedge the price risk associated with its outstanding derivative loan commitments. Management expects these derivatives will experience changes in fair value opposite to changes in fair value of the derivative loan commitments, thereby reducing earnings volatility related to the recognition in earnings of changes in the values of the commitments. The instruments used to economically hedge the fair value of the derivative loan commitments include forward loan sales commitments and other free-standing derivatives such as options and U.S. Treasury futures. A forward loan sales commitment protects the Company from losses on sales of the loans arising from exercise of the loan commitments by securing the ultimate sales price and delivery date of the loans. The Company takes into account various factors and strategies in determining the portion of the mortgage pipeline (derivative loan commitments) it wants to hedge economically. Included in Other Comprehensive Income is the significant components of these transactions as follows: Gain on forward loan sale commitments $1,259,000 Gain on derivative loan commitments 227,000 ---------- $1,486,000 ========== 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 events which the Company expects to continue: (i) increased attention to "niche" insurance products, such as the Company's funeral plan policies and traditional whole-life products; (ii) emphasis on cemetery and mortuary business; and (iii) capitalizing on historically lower interest rates by originating and refinancing mortgage loans.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2005, Security National Mortgage Company ("SNMC") experienced an increase in revenue and expenses due to the increase in loan volume of its operations. SNMC is a mortgage lender incorporated under the laws of the State of Utah. SNMC is approved and regulated by the Federal Housing Administration (FHA), a department of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), to originate mortgage loans that qualify for government insurance in the event of default by the borrower. SNMC obtains loans primarily from independent brokers and correspondents. SNMC funds the loans from internal cash flows and lines of credit from financial institutions. SNMC receives fees from the borrowers and other secondary fee from third party investors who purchase the loans from SNMC. SNMC primarily sells all of its loans to third party investors and does not retain servicing to these loans. SNMC pays the brokers and correspondents a commission for loans that are brokered through SNMC. SNMC originated and sold 9,421 ($1,516,694,000) and 8,790 ($1,368,000,000) loans, respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004. Results of Operations Third Quarter of 2005 Compared to Third Quarter of 2004 (rounded to nearest thousand) Total revenues increased by $8,863,000, or 33.2%, to $35,561,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2005, from $26,698,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2004. Contributing to this increase in total revenues was an increase of $8,148,000 in mortgage fee income and an increase of $1,378,000 in net investment income. Insurance premiums and other considerations decreased by $79,000, or 1.2%, to $6,437,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2005, from $6,516,000 for the comparable period in 2004. This decrease was primarily due to fewer insurance premiums that were realized on new insurance sales. Net investment income increased by $1,378,000, or 33.6%, to $5,475,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2005, from $4,097,000 for the comparable period in 2004. This increase was primarily attributable to additional borrower interest income from increased long-term bond purchases and mortgage loans over the comparable period in 2004. Net mortuary and cemetery sales decreased by $437,000, or 15.0%, to $2,472,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2005, from $2,909,000 for the comparable period in 2004. This reduction in mortuary sales was due to reduced pre-need property sales and the loss of sales from the Camel Back Funeral Home as a result of the City of Phoenix having commenced condemnation proceedings in order to construct a light rail facility on the funeral home property. Mortgage fee income increased by $8,148,000, or 63.1%, to $21,056,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2005, from $12,908,000 for the comparable period in 2004. This increase was primarily attributable to an increase in the number of loan originations during the third quarter of 2005 due to the opening of new offices and increased production in exiting offices, which resulted in the financing of a greater number of mortgage loans. Total benefits and expenses were $33,605,000, or 94.5% of total revenues for the three months ended September 30 2005, as compared to $26,321,000, or 98.6% of total revenues for the comparable period in 2004. The higher margin in 2005 was due to fixed expenses that did not increase proportionally with the increase in revenues. Death benefits, surrenders and other policy benefits, and increase in future policy benefits increased by an aggregate of $184,000, or 3.3%, to $5,845,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2005, from $5,661,000 for the comparable period in 2004. This increase was primarily the result of an increase in death benefits.
Amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs and costs of insurance acquired increased by $29,000, or 4.5%, to $668,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2005, from $639,000 for the comparable period in 2004. This increase was primarily due to the growth of policies in force. General and administrative expenses increased by $6,182,000, or 32.7%, to $25,111,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2005, from $18,929,000 for the comparable period in 2004. This increase resulted primarily from an increase in commissions due to the additional mortgage loan originations that SecurityNational Mortgage Company made during the third quarter of 2005. Interest expense increased by $1,023,000, or 213.5%, to $1,502,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2005, from $479,000 for the comparable period in 2004. This increase was primarily due to the increased use of warehouse lines of credit required for the funding of loans by SecurityNational Mortgage Company. Cost of goods and services sold of the mortuaries and cemeteries decreased by $133,000, or 21.7%, to $480,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2005, from $613,000 for the comparable period in 2004. This reduction in the cost of goods and services sold of the mortuaries and cemeteries was due to the reduced costs of at-need merchandise at the Company's mortuaries and cemeteries and the loss of sales from the Camelback Funeral Home as a result of the City of Phoenix having commenced condemnation proceedings in order to construct a light rail facility on the funeral home property. Nine Months Ended September 30, 2005 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 2004 (rounded to nearest thousand) Total revenues increased by $6,219,000,or 7.0%, to $95,227,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2005, from $89,008,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2004. Contributing to this increase in total revenues was a $3,090,000 increase in mortgage fee income, a $3,023,000 increase in net investment income, and a $1,013,000 increase in insurance premiums. Insurance premiums and other considerations increased by $1,013,000, or 5.2%, to $20,330,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2005, from $19,317,000 for the comparable period in 2004. This increase was primarily due to the additional insurance premiums realized from new insurance sales. Net investment income increased by $3,023,000, or 25.4%, to $14,918,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2005, from $11,895,000 for the comparable period in 2004. This increase was primarily attributable to additional borrower interest income from increased long-term bond purchases and mortgage loans over the comparable period in 2004. Net mortuary and cemetery sales decreased by $659,000, or 7.4%, to $8,203,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2005, from $8,862,000 for the comparable period in 2004. This reduction in mortuary sales was primarily due to a reduction in pre-need property sales and the loss of sales from the Camelback Funeral Home as a result of the City of Phoenix having commenced condemnation proceedings in order to construct a light rail facility on the funeral home property. Mortgage fee income increased by $3,090,000, or 6.4%, to $51,322,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2005, from $48,232,000 for the comparable period in 2004. This increase was primarily attributable to an increase in the number of loan originations during the first nine months of 2005 due to the opening of new offices and increased production in existing offices, which resulted in the financing of a greater number of mortgage loans. Total benefits and expenses were $92,307,000, or 96.9% of total revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2005, as compared to $86,803,000, or 97.5% of total revenues for the comparable period in 2004. The higher margin in 2005 was due to fixed expenses that did not increase proportionally with the increase in revenues.
Death benefits, surrenders and other policy benefits, and increase in future policy benefits increased by an aggregate of $831,000, or 4.8%, to $18,164,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2005, from $17,333,000 for the comparable period in 2004. This increase was primarily the result of an increase in reserves for policyholders. Amortization of deferred policy and pre-need acquisition costs and costs of insurance acquired decreased by $1,127,000, or 33.1%, to $2,277,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2005, from $3,404,000, for the comparable period in 2004. This decrease was primarily due to recognition of improvement in persistency. General and administrative expenses increased by $4,323,000, or 6.9%, to $67,100,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2005, from $62,777,000, for the comparable period in 2004. This increase resulted primarily from an increase in commissions due to the additional mortgage loan originations that SecurityNational Mortgage Company made during the nine months ended September 30, 2005. Interest expense increased by $1,633,000 or 106.1%, to $3,172,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2005, from $1,539,000, for the comparable period in 2004. This increase was primarily due to the increased use of warehouse lines of credit required for the funding of loans by SecurityNational Mortgage Company. Cost of goods and services sold of the mortuaries and cemeteries decreased by $155,000, or 8.9%, to $1,595,000, for the nine months ended September 30, 2005, from $1,750,000 for the comparable period in 2004. This reduction in the cost of goods and services sold of the mortuaries and cemeteries was due to the reduced costs of at-need merchandise at the Company's mortuaries and cemeteries and the loss of sales from the Camelback Funeral Home, as a result of the City of Phoenix having commenced condemnation proceedings in order to construct a light rail facility on the funeral home property. Liquidity and Capital Resources The Company's life insurance subsidiaries and cemetery and mortuary subsidiaries realize cash flow from premiums, contract payments and sales on personal services rendered for cemetery and mortuary business, from interest and dividends on invested assets, and from the proceeds from the maturity of held-to-maturity investments, or sale of other investments. The mortgage subsidiary realizes cash flow from fees generated by originating and refinancing mortgage loans and interest earned on mortgages sold to investors. The Company considers these sources of cash flow to be adequate to fund future policyholder and cemetery and mortuary liabilities, which generally are long-term, and adequate to pay current policyholder claims, annuity payments, expenses on the issuance of new policies, the maintenance of existing policies, debt service, and operating expenses. The Company attempts to match the duration of invested assets with its policyholder and cemetery and mortuary liabilities. The Company may sell investments other than those held-to-maturity in the portfolio to help in this timing; however, to date, that has not been necessary. The Company purchases short-term investments on a temporary basis to meet the expectations of short-term requirements of the Company's products. The Company's investment philosophy is intended to provide a rate of return, which will persist during the expected duration of policyholder and cemetery and mortuary liabilities regardless of future interest rate movements. The Company's investment policy is to invest predominantly in fixed maturity securities, mortgage loans, and the warehousing of mortgage loans on a short-term basis before selling the loans to investors in accordance with the requirements and laws governing the life insurance subsidiaries. Bonds owned by the life insurance subsidiaries amounted to $76,698,000 as of September 30, 2005, compared to $81,051,000 as of December 31, 2004. This represents 50% and 45% of the total insurance-related investments as of September 30, 2005, and December 31,
2004, respectively. Generally, all bonds owned by the life insurance subsidiaries are rated by the National Association of Insurance Commissioners. Under this rating system, there are nine categories used for rating bonds. At September 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004, 2% ($1,664,000) and 2% ($1,659,000) of the Company's total investment in bonds were invested in bonds in rating categories three through six, which are considered non-investment grade. The Company has classified certain of its fixed income securities, including high-yield securities, in its portfolio as available for sale, with the remainder classified as held to maturity. However, in accordance with Company policy, any such securities purchased in the future will be classified as held to maturity. Business conditions, however, may develop in the future which may indicate a need for a higher level of liquidity in the investment portfolio. In that event the Company believes it could sell short-term investment grade securities before liquidating higher-yielding longer-term securities. The Company is subject to risk based capital guidelines established by statutory regulators requiring minimum capital levels based on the perceived risk of assets, liabilities, disintermediation, and business risk. At September 30, 2005, and December 31, 2004, the life insurance subsidiary exceeded the regulatory criteria. The Company's total capitalization of stockholders' equity and bank debt and notes payable was $56,844,000 as of September 30, 2005, as compared to $54,995,000 as of December 31, 2004. Stockholders' equity as a percent of capitalization increased to 80% as of September 30, 2005, from 76% as of December 31, 2004. Lapse rates measure the amount of insurance terminated during a particular period. The Company's lapse rate for life insurance in 2004 was 9.0%, as compared to a rate of 8.6 % for 2003. The 2005 lapse rate to date has been approximately the same as 2004. At September 30, 2005, $27,335,000 of the Company's consolidated stockholders' equity represents the statutory stockholders' equity of the Company's life insurance subsidiaries. The life insurance subsidiaries cannot pay a dividend to its parent company without the approval of insurance regulatory authorities. Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk There have been no significant changes since the annual report Form 10-K filed for the year ended December 31, 2004. Item 4. Controls and Procedures a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures Under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, the Company evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as of September 30, 2005. Based on this evaluation, the Company's principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective and adequately designed to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in applicable rules and forms.
b) Changes in internal controls over financial reporting During the quarter ended September 30, 2005, there has been no change in the Company's internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect its internal control over financial reporting. Part II Other Information: Item 1. Legal Proceedings An action was brought against the Company in May 2001 by Glenna Brown Thomas, individually and as personal representative of the Estate of Lynn W. Brown, in the Third Judicial Court, Salt Lake County, Utah. The action asserts that Memorial Estates, Inc. delivered to Lynn W. Brown six stock certificates totaling 2,000 shares of its common stock in 1970 and 1971. Mr. Brown died in 1972. It is also asserted that at the time the 2,000 shares were issued and outstanding, the shares represented a 2% ownership of Memorial Estates. It is further alleged that Mr. Brown was entitled to preemptive rights and, after the issuance of the stock to Mr. Brown, there were further issuances of stock without providing written notice to Mr. Brown or his estate of his right to purchase more stock. It is further asserted that Thomas has the right to the transfer of Brown's shares on the books of Security National Financial Corporation as well as Memorial Estates, and to the restoration of Brown's proportion of share ownership in Memorial Estates at the time of his death by issuance and delivery to Thomas of sufficient shares of the Company's publicly traded and unrestricted stock in exchange for the 2,000 shares of Memorial Estates stock, including payment of all dividends from the date of Thomas's demand. The formal discovery cutoff was January 15, 2004. The Company has been verbally informed that Thomas will dismiss the case but such dismissal has not been communicated in writing. Until the case is actually dismissed, the Company intends to vigorously defend the matter, including the assertion that the statute of limitations bars the claims in their entirety. The Company received a letter dated November 9, 2004 on behalf of Charles Hood, who worked at Singing Hills Memorial Park in El Cajon, California. He was hired in April 2003 as a groundskeeper with his work concluding on October 30, 2003. Mr. Hood claims that he wrote a letter to the Company outlining his concerns regarding the operation of the cemetery and claims, as a result, that he was terminated. Even though he recognizes his relationship was as an at-will employee, Mr. Hood's claims against the Company include, but are not limited to, wrongful termination, violation of labor laws, whistleblower retaliation and infliction of emotional distress. The letter proposes a settlement in the amount of $275,000. On September 21, 2005, Mr. Hood filed a complaint against the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Singing Hills Memorial Park and Memorial Estates, Inc., in the Superior Court of the State of California for the County of San Diego (Case No. GIE028978). The complaint includes causes of action for wrongful termination in violation of public policy, retaliation in violation of public policy, race discrimination in violation of the California Fair Employment and Housing Act, retaliation in violation of such act, and intentional infliction of emotional distress. Damages, including punitive damages, are sought with no specific amount set forth in the complaint, together with attorney's fees, interest and costs of the lawsuit. The Company disputes the claims in the complaint and asserts that Mr. Hood was not wrongfully terminated but had voluntarily quit as an employee of the Company. Formal discovery has commenced. The Company intends to vigorously defend against the action.
The Company also received a letter dated November 29, 2004 on behalf of Roger Gornichec, who the Company recognizes as having been an independent contractor. The attorney who wrote the letter on behalf of Mr. Hood also wrote the letter on behalf of Mr. Gornichec. Mr. Gornichec concluded his services as an agent selling insurance in the spring of 2003 and his license to sell cemetery plots was not renewed in the summer of 2004. Mr. Gornichec asserts that he was an employee contrary to the Company's position. The claims made on behalf of Mr. Gornichec include, but are not limited to, wrongful termination in violation of public policy, misrepresentation, age discrimination, whistle-blower retaliation, interference with economic advantage, breach of contract, breach of the covenant of good faith and fair dealing, and infliction of emotional distress. Mr. Gornichec also claims that he is owed a certain amount from a retirement plan. The letter proposes a settlement in the amount of $420,000. Based on its investigation, the Company believes that Mr. Gornichec was an independent contractor, not an employee, and that the claims and the settlement amount sought are not justified. Mr. Gornichec also filed a complaint with the California Department of Fair Employment and Housing. He has obtained a right to sue letter but no litigation has commenced. If the matter is not resolved and litigation ensues, the Company is prepared to vigorously defend the action. The Company is a defendant in various other legal actions arising from the normal conduct of business. Management believes that none of the actions will have a material effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations. Based on management's assessment and legal counsel's representations concerning the likelihood of unfavorable outcomes, no amounts have been accrued for the above claims in the consolidated financial statements.

Item 5. Other Information On September 23, 2005, the Company, through its subsidiaries, Security National Life Insurance Company and Southern Security Life Insurance Company, entered into a stock purchase agreement with Memorial Insurance Company of America, an Arkansas domiciled insurance company ("Memorial Insurance Company"), to purchase all of the outstanding shares of common stock of Memorial Insurance Company. Under the terms of the stock purchase agreement, the shareholders of Memorial Insurance Company will receive $13,500,000 in consideration for all of the outstanding common shares of Memorial Insurance Company, with each shareholder to receive a pro rata share of the total amount of the purchase consideration based upon the number of shares such shareholder owns. The shareholders will receive a total $13,500,000 for their shares by means of distributions, with Security National Life Insurance Company and Southern Security Life Insurance Company simultaneously contributing sufficient capital and surplus to Memorial Insurance Company to maintain its status as an admitted insurer in good standing in the state of Arkansas. For federal and state tax purposes, the transaction will be treated as a part sale, part redemption of the Memorial Insurance Company stock. At the closing of the transaction, the shareholders of Memorial Insurance Company agree to sell their shares of Memorial Insurance Company stock to Security National Life Insurance Company and Southern Security Life Insurance Company, such shares representing all of the issued and outstanding stock of Memorial Insurance Company, free and clear of all liens, claims, and encumbrances. Following completion of the transaction, Memorial Insurance Company will become a wholly owned subsidiary of Southern Security Life Insurance Company. As of December 31, 2004, Memorial Insurance Company had 100,170 policies in force and 50 agents. For the year ended December 31, 2004, Memorial Insurance Company had revenues of $4,893,000 and net income of $2,158,000. As of December 31, 2004, the statutory assets and the capital and surplus of Memorial Insurance Company were $45,048,000 and $12,303,000, respectfully. Under the terms of the stock purchase agreement, the shareholders agree, where applicable following the closing of the transaction, to maintain any existing policies from Memorial Insurance Company that were previously sold through such shareholders' funeral and mortuary businesses and to avoid replacing any of such policies with the policies of other insurance companies. The shareholders further agree to use their reasonable best efforts to support the business and operations of Memorial Insurance Company, including, where applicable, to maintain a business relationship with Memorial Insurance Company to the extent such a business relationship existed prior to such closing. Moreover, Security National Life Insurance Company and Southern Security Life Insurance Company agree to maintain the corporate offices of Memorial Insurance Company at its current location in Blytheville, Arkansas. Furthermore, Security National Life Insurance Company and Southern Security Life Insurance Company agree to use their best efforts, following the closing, to assist Memorial Insurance Company in retaining the sales agents and brokers in its business and operations. Security National Life Insurance Company anticipates completing the transaction on or about December 9, 2005. The obligations to complete the transaction are contingent upon approval of the transaction by the Arkansas Insurance Department. A hearing has been scheduled on December 9, 2005 with the commissioner of the Arkansas Insurance Department to consider the request by Security National Life Insurance Company and Southern Security Life Insurance Company to approve the transaction.
At the closing of the transaction, Security National Life Insurance Company and Memorial Insurance Company each agree to enter into a reinsurance agreement to reinsure the majority of the in force business of Memorial Insurance Company to Security National Life Insurance Company, as reinsurer, to the extent permitted by the Arkansas Insurance Department. The parties to the reinsurance agreement will consist of Security National Life Insurance Company, Memorial Insurance Company, and the Arkansas Insurance Department. The assets and liabilities to be reinsured under the reinsurance agreement shall be deposited into a trust account, in which Zions Bancorporation, a national banking corporation, has agreed to act as trustee. Under the terms of the reinsurance agreement, in the event of the insolvency of Security National Life Insurance Company, Zions Bancorporation will transfer the assets and liabilities held in trust to the Arkansas Insurance Department for purposes of the administration of the assets and liabilities with respect to such insolvency. On October 20, 2005, Security National Life Insurance Company and Southern Security Life Insurance Company submitted a Form A application to the Arkansas Insurance Department. The Form A application included a proposed reinsurance agreement and a trust agreement that Security National Life Insurance Company intends to enter into with Memorial Insurance Company and the Arkansas Insurance Department. Upon approval of the reinsurance agreement by the Arkansas insurance department, certain insurance business and operations of Memorial Insurance Company will be transferred to Security National Life Insurance Company, as of the effective date of the reinsurance agreement, including all policies in force as of the effective date thereof, except for certain policies. Any future insurance business by Memorial Insurance Company will be covered by this reinsurance agreement. It is anticipated that all of the business and operations of Memorial Insurance Company will be transferred to Security National Life Insurance Company under the terms of the reinsurance agreement, except for capital and surplus of approximately $1,000,000. Thus, it is estimated that approximately $30,091,000 in assets and liabilities will be transferred from Memorial Insurance Company to Security National Life Insurance Company pursuant to the reinsurance agreement. At the closing of the stock purchase transaction, Memorial Insurance Company will issue a $30,091,000 note to Security National Life Insurance Company payable, together with accrued interest, within 30 days from the date of issuance. The note is to be repaid in cash or in assets to be transferred to Security National Life Insurance Company. The note will be secured by the assets owned by Memorial Insurance Company. In addition, Southern Security Life Insurance Company will contribute $2,200,000 to Memorial Insurance Company at closing in consideration for the surplus note. It is anticipated that Memorial Insurance Company will repay the surplus note in early 2006 using the proceeds from the sale of the investments in common stocks currently held in its investment portfolio. The Company has determined that a marketing employee of Security National Life Insurance Company has embezzled a total of $275,000 from the Company. The Company's audit committee has conducted a formal investigation of the matter and advised the Company's Board of Directors and registered public independent accountants of the embezzlement. Management is in the process of attempting to recover a portion of the embezzled funds. The Company has fidelity bond coverage with a $50,000 deductible, but there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in obtaining any recovery of the embezzled funds from the insurer.
