preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts
of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.

June&nbsp;2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No.&nbsp;141, "Business Combinations" and SFAS No.&nbsp;142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets". SFAS
No.&nbsp;141 addresses financial accounting and reporting for goodwill and other intangible assets acquired in a business combination at acquisition. SFAS No.&nbsp;142 addresses how intangible
assets that are acquired individually or with a group of other assets (but not those acquired in a business combination) should be accounted for in financial statements upon their acquisition. This
Statement also addresses how goodwill and other intangible assets should be accounted for after they have been initially recognized in the financial statements. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
provisions of SFAS No.&nbsp;141 apply to all business combinations initiated after June&nbsp;30, 2001. The provisions also apply to all business combinations accounted for using
the purchase method for which the date of acquisition is July&nbsp;1, 2001 or later. The adoption of SFAS No.&nbsp;141 by the Company had no effect on its consolidated financial statements. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
provisions of SFAS No.&nbsp;142 are required to be applied starting with fiscal years beginning after December&nbsp;15, 2001. The company adopted SFAS No.&nbsp;142 as of the
beginning of the first quarter of 2002.
The effect of SFAS No.&nbsp;142 on the Company is the elimination of the amortization of goodwill, which prior to 2002 was amortized over 40&nbsp;years, and the testing for impairment of goodwill
on an annual basis. Had the adoption of SFAS No.&nbsp;142 occurred at the beginning of the previous year, net income before taxes, net income and diluted earnings per share would have been
$5,920,000, $4,736,000 and $0.27, respectively from the proforma elimination of the amortization of goodwill. The proforma net income and diluted earnings per share are calculated using the 20 percent
tax rate reported in 2001. See Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations for proforma disclosure of this accounting change and the change in the tax rate
discussed in Note&nbsp;4 on the reported results for 2001. The Company performed a review of goodwill as of January&nbsp;1, 2002 by comparing the fair value of the Company's reporting units
(funeral home business by region) to the carrying value of the reporting units, and no impairment was required to be recorded at the implementation date of the new accounting standard. Goodwill
acquired during the three months ended March&nbsp;31, 2002, totaled $1,040,000 which were performance-based contingent consideration payments on a prior year acquisition. </FONT></P>

August&nbsp;2001 the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No.&nbsp;144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets". SFAS
No.&nbsp;144 addresses financial accounting and reporting of long-lived assets, other than goodwill, that are to be disposed by sale or otherwise, and is effective for financial
statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December&nbsp;15, 2001. The Company adopted SFAS No.&nbsp;144 as of the beginning of the first quarter of 2002 which had no effect on the
Company's financial position or results of operations. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>4. INCOME TAXES  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;For 2001, the Company had an effective book tax rate of 20&nbsp;percent, reflecting the benefit of previously unrecognized tax losses from prior periods related
to the Fresh Start restructuring program. When the Company incurred the Fresh Start restructuring costs and write-downs in late 2000 and proceeded to dispose of low performing businesses, it could not
be assured that it would generate enough future taxable income to utilize the sizeable tax benefits created by the tax losses on asset sales. To acknowledge this uncertainty at the time, the Company
recorded a "valuation allowance" to offset these tax benefits until such time that it could be determined that the Company would be able to deduct them. Based on the positive operating results
subsequent to 2000 and management's forecast of future positive operating results, management determined in the first quarter of 2002 that it is more
likely than not that the Company will be able to utilize substantially all of these previously unrecognized tax benefits. Accordingly, in the first quarter of 2002 the Company recorded a special
one-time tax benefit in the amount of $12.8&nbsp;million, equal to $0.73 per diluted share, which substantially eliminated all of the valuation allowance. The Company estimates that its
effective tax rate will be 38.5&nbsp;percent for book purposes in 2002. Had the Company also used the 38.5&nbsp;percent tax rate for the first quarter of 2001, net income would have been $878,000,
or $0.05 per diluted share, lower for that period. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>OVERVIEW  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Carriage is a leading provider of death care services and products in the United States. Our historical focus has been on operational enhancements at facilities
currently owned to increase revenues and gross profit, as well as growth through acquisitions (although this activity was curtailed significantly beginning in 1999). That focus has resulted in high
standards of service, operational performance, and an infrastructure containing measurement and management systems. In 2000, the operating strategy was dramatically shifted to focus upon increasing
operating cash flow. In November&nbsp;2000, we launched a two-year multi-faceted, restructuring program, called "Fresh-Start", which was designed to increase financial and operating
performance, improve cash flow, reduce debt, and assist Carriage in fulfilling our mission of being the highest quality funeral and cemetery service organization in the industry. Beginning with the
fourth quarter of 2000, we have been focused on executing elements of Fresh Start. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
goals of Fresh Start are restoring credibility to our operating and consolidation model, increasing and better aligning our earnings and cash flow, restoring market credibility to
our balance sheet; reducing our debt; and re-accessing the capital markets. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
principal elements of Fresh Start include downsizing our corporate organization; changing our operating leadership; changing our preneed funeral organizational strategy; stratifying
by performance our funeral and cemetery portfolios; implementing action plans to improve underperforming businesses; disposing of some underperforming businesses; adjusting the carrying basis of other
underperforming businesses; and modifying financial covenants with lenders to facilitate execution of Fresh Start. Most of the elements of Fresh Start have been accomplished and we are seeing the
benefits of these actions in our operating results. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Net
income totaled $16.6&nbsp;million in the first quarter of 2002, or $0.95 per diluted share. Excluding a $12.8&nbsp;million, or $0.73 per share special tax benefit, net income was
$3.8&nbsp;million, or $0.22 per diluted share, which equaled net income in the first quarter of 2001. Two significant accounting events occurred during the first quarter of 2002, the elimination of
goodwill amortization in connection with the implementation of SFAS No.&nbsp;142 which totaled $1,172,000 in the first quarter of 2001, and the change in the Company's tax rate from
20&nbsp;percent to 38.5&nbsp;percent. Had those two events occurred at the beginning of 2001, net income and diluted earnings per share would have totaled $3.6&nbsp;million and $0.21,
respectively, for the first quarter of 2001. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
full year impact to diluted earnings per share, by quarter, for 2001 of these two events would have been as follows: </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Income
from operations, which we define as earnings before interest and income taxes, increased as a percentage of net revenues, from 23.0% for the first quarter of 2001 to 26.5% for the
first quarter of 2002. This improvement was largely due to the elimination of amortization of goodwill for the first quarter of 2002 and the improved operating performance that resulted from Fresh
Start initiatives. Revenues from funeral homes decreased 6.2% and revenues from cemeteries decreased 8.5% in the first quarter of 2002 compared to the same period in 2001 as a result of the sale or
closing of 24 funeral homes and eight cemeteries during 2001, lower preneed insurance commission revenue and lower cemetery preneed revenues. Gross margins for the funeral homes increased from 28.8%
in the first quarter of 2001 to 35.7% in the first quarter of 2002. As a percentage of cemetery net revenues, cemetery gross margin was 20.7% in the first quarter of 2002 compared to 23.4% in the
first quarter of 2001. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The following is a discussion of the Company's results of operations for the three months ended March&nbsp;31, 2001 and 2002. For purposes of this discussion,
the Company's funeral home businesses are in three groups, as a result of the stratification of our funeral homes. A "core" group which represents approximately two-thirds of our revenues
and cash flow, a second "underperforming" group, and a third group consisting of businesses that are "targeted for sale". Additionally, funeral homes and cemeteries owned and operated for the entirety
of each period being compared are referred to as "same-store" or "existing operations". </FONT></P>

same-store revenues for the three months ended March&nbsp;31, 2002 increased 1.5% when compared to the three months ended March&nbsp;31, 2001, as we experienced a
decrease of 1.5% in the number of services and an increase of 3.0% in the average revenue per service for those existing operations. We believe that decrease in the number of funeral home services was
primarily related to the decrease in the national mortality rate that was reported for the first quarter. We were able to leverage the higher average revenue per funeral this year into greater
profitability because of our focus on reducing costs. The number of funeral services decreased 1.4% for the core group in comparing the first quarter of 2002 to the first quarter of 2001, while the
average revenue per service for those existing locations increased 3.7% in comparing those same periods. The number of funeral services for the underperforming group decreased 2.5% while the average
revenue per service increased 2.9% in comparing the first quarter 2002 to the first quarter of 2001. In addition to the net revenues from funeral location operations above, insurance commission
revenues from preneed funeral contract sales totaled $0.4&nbsp;million for the three months of 2002, as compared to $1.3&nbsp;million for the three months ended March&nbsp;31, 2001. The decrease
in commission revenues is due primarily to first quarter 2001 nonrecurring commissions on rollover transactions. Additionally and because of a shift in the </FONT></P>

funeral same-store gross profit for the three months ended March&nbsp;31, 2002 increased $2.7&nbsp;million or 32.2% from the comparable three months of 2001. The
higher gross profit is due to the combination of the elimination of goodwill amortization which totaled $1,136,000 during the three months ended March&nbsp;31, 2001 and to the improvement in our

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;For
2001, Carriage had an effective book tax rate of 20&nbsp;percent, reflecting the benefit of previously unrecognized tax losses from prior periods related to the Fresh Start
restructuring program. When the Company incurred the Fresh Start restructuring costs and write-downs in late 2000 and proceeded to dispose of low performing businesses, it could not be assured that it
would generate enough future taxable income to utilize the sizeable tax benefits created by the tax losses on asset sales. To acknowledge this uncertainty at the time, Carriage recorded a "valuation
allowance" to offset these tax benefits until such time that it could be determined that the Company would be able to deduct them. Based on the positive operating results subsequent to 2000 and
management's forecast of future positive operating results, management determined in the first quarter of 2002 that it is more likely than not that the Company will be able to utilize substantially
all of these previously unrecognized tax benefits. Accordingly, in the first quarter of 2002 Carriage recorded a special one-time tax benefit in the amount of $12.8&nbsp;million. The
Company estimates that its effective tax rate will be 38.5&nbsp;percent for book purposes in 2002. Had the Company used the 38.5&nbsp;percent tax rate also for the first quarter of 2001, net
income as reported in 2001 would have been $878,000, or $0.05 per diluted share, lower for that
period. Had the Company used the 38.5&nbsp;percent tax rate for the full year 2001, net income as reported in 2001 would have been $2,081,000, or $0.12 per diluted share, lower for the year. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Cash and cash equivalents totaled $3.2&nbsp;million at March&nbsp;31, 2002, representing an increase of $0.5&nbsp;million from December&nbsp;31, 2001. For
the three months ended March&nbsp;31, 2002, cash provided by operations was $5.5&nbsp;million as compared to $7.9&nbsp;million for the three months ended March&nbsp;31, 2001. The decrease in
cash provided by operations was primarily due to $2.2&nbsp;million in higher than normal trust withdrawals received in 2001 and $0.7&nbsp;million in tax refunds received in 2001. Cash used in
investing activities was $2.3&nbsp;million for the three months ended March&nbsp;31, 2002 compared to cash provided in the amount of $4.8&nbsp;million for the first three months of 2001, the
change being primarily due to the proceeds from the sale of businesses during the first quarter 2001 in the amount of $6.2&nbsp;million. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
Company's debt and other sources of capital include $99.3&nbsp;million in senior debt notes, a $100&nbsp;million revolving line of credit and $22.2&nbsp;million in acquisition
indebtedness and capital lease obligations at March&nbsp;31, 2002. Our total debt outstanding rose $2&nbsp;million in the first quarter to $159.5&nbsp;million primarily due to a
$5.3&nbsp;million payment on our last outstanding contingent stock guarantees arising from prior acquisitions and a $4.1&nbsp;million semi-annual interest payment on $99&nbsp;million
of senior debt notes. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
$99.3&nbsp;million in senior debt notes are unsecured, mature in tranches of $22.9&nbsp;million in 2004, $54.1&nbsp;million in 2006 and $22.3&nbsp;million in 2008 and bear
interest at the fixed rates of 7.73%, 7.96% and 8.06%, respectively. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Carriage
has a credit facility with a group of banks for a $100&nbsp;million revolving line of credit. The credit facility, maturing in 2004, is unsecured and contains customary
restrictive covenants, including a restriction on the payment of dividends on common stock, and requires that we maintain certain financial ratios. Interest under the credit facility is provided at
both LIBOR and prime rate options. As of March&nbsp;31, 2002, $38&nbsp;million was outstanding under the credit facility and the Company's debt to total capitalization was 46.5&nbsp;percent. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We
believe that cash flow from operations and borrowings under the credit facility should be sufficient to fund anticipated capital expenditures as well as other operating requirements.
Because future cash flows and the availability of financing are subject to a number of variables, such as the Company's operating performance, timing of debt maturities and the number and size of
acquisitions made by the Company, there can be no assurance that the Company's capital resources will be sufficient to fund its capital needs. Additional debt and equity financing may be required in
the future. The availability and
terms of these capital sources will depend on prevailing market conditions and interest rates and the then-existing financial condition of the Company. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>ACCOUNTING CHANGES  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In June&nbsp;2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No.&nbsp;141, "Business Combinations" and SFAS No.&nbsp;142, "Goodwill and Other
Intangible Assets". SFAS No.&nbsp;141 addresses financial accounting and reporting for goodwill and other intangible assets acquired in a business combination at acquisition. SFAS No.&nbsp;142
addresses how intangible assets that are acquired individually or with a group of other assets (but not those acquired in a business combination) should be accounted for in financial statements upon
their acquisition. This Statement also addresses how goodwill and other intangible assets should be accounted for after they have been initially recognized in the financial statements. The provisions
of SFAS No.&nbsp;141 apply to all business combinations initiated after June&nbsp;30, 2001. The provisions also apply to all business combinations accounted for using the purchase method for which
the date of acquisition is July&nbsp;1, 2001 or later. The adoption of SFAS No.&nbsp;141 by the Company had no effect on its consolidated financial statements. The provisions of SFAS
No.&nbsp;142 are required to be applied starting with fiscal years beginning after December&nbsp;15, 2001. The company adopted SFAS No.&nbsp;142 as of the beginning of the first quarter of 2002.
The effect of SFAS No.&nbsp;142 on the Company is the elimination of the amortization of goodwill, which prior to 2002 was amortized over 40&nbsp;years, and the testing for impairment of goodwill
on an annual basis. Had the adoption of SFAS No.&nbsp;142 occurred at the beginning of the previous year, net income before taxes, net income and diluted earnings per share would have been
$$5,920,000, $4,736,000 and $0.27, respectively, from the </FONT></P>

proforma elimination of the amortization of goodwill. The proforma net income and diluted earnings per share are calculated using the 20&nbsp;percent tax rate reported in 2001. See Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations for proforma disclosure of this accounting change and the change in the tax rate discussed in Note&nbsp;4 on the reported
results for 2001. The Company performed a review of goodwill as of January&nbsp;1, 2002 by comparing the fair value of the Company's reporting units (funeral home businesses by region) to the
carrying value of the reporting units, and no impairment was required to be reported at the implementation date of the new accounting standard. Goodwill acquired during the three months ended
March&nbsp;31, 2002, totaled $1,040,000. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
August&nbsp;2001 the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No.&nbsp;144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets". SFAS
No.&nbsp;144 addresses financial accounting and reporting of long-lived assets, other than goodwill, that are to be disposed by sale or otherwise, and is effective for financial
statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December&nbsp;15, 2001. The Company adopted SFAS No.&nbsp;144 as of the beginning of the first quarter of 2002 which had no effect on the
Company's financial position or results of operations. </FONT></P>

forward-looking statements, which reflect management's opinions only as of the date hereof. We undertake no obligation to revise or publicly release the results of any revision of these
forward-looking statements. Readers should carefully review the Cautionary Statements described in this and other documents we file from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission,

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Cautionary Statements  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company cautions readers that the following important factors, among others, in some cases have affected, and in the future could affect, the Company's actual
consolidated results and could cause the Company's actual consolidated results in the future to differ materially from the goals and expectations expressed herein and in any other forward-looking
statements made by or on behalf of the Company. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1)
Maintaining or achieving growth in free cash flow from operations depends primarily on achieving anticipated levels of earnings before depreciation, amortization and other
non-cash charges, maintaining the amount of expected cash income taxes payable, controlling capital expenditures to budgeted levels, collecting accounts receivable and managing preneed
sales origination costs to current or lower levels. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2)
Achieving the Company's revenue goals also is affected by the volume and prices of the products and services sold, as well as the mix of products and services sold. The annual sales
targets set by the Company are believed to be achievable, but the inability of the Company to achieve planned volume or prices could cause the Company not to meet anticipated levels of revenue. In
certain markets the Company expects to increase prices, but in certain markets prices could be lowered to protect market share. The ability of the Company to achieve volume or price targets at any
location depends on numerous factors, including the capabilities of the local operating staff, the local economy, the local death rate, competition and changes in consumer preferences, including
cremations. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3)
Revenue also is affected by the level of preneed sales in both current and prior periods. The level of preneed sales may be adversely affected by numerous factors, including
deterioration in the economy, which causes individuals to have less discretionary income, changes in consumer spending preferences, as well as changes in marketing approach, commission practices and
contractual terms. Future revenue will also be affected by the Company's decision in the latter half of 2000 to eliminate its national preneed sales and marketing organization and to manage future
preneed activities at the local business level. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4)
