Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] |
Principles of Consolidation | Principles of Consolidation and Interim Condensed Disclosures Our unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements include the Company and its subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. Our interim 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, 2024. In addition, our unaudited 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, 2024 unless otherwise disclosed herein, and should be read in conjunction therewith.
Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates The preparation of our 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 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.
Cash and Cash Equivalents | 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 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 | Held for Sale At March 31, 2025, the assets and liabilities of non-core funeral home and cemetery businesses expected to be sold within the next twelve months, which have met the criteria for such classification, have been classified as held for sale.
Property, Plant and Equipment | Property, Plant and Equipment Property, plant and equipment is comprised of the following (in thousands):
| March 31, 2025 |  | December 31, 2024 |
Land | $ | 85,462 |  |  | $ | 86,609 |  |
Buildings and improvements | 264,733 |  |  | 265,231 |  |
Furniture, equipment and vehicles | 70,863 |  |  | 72,052 |  |
Property, plant and equipment, at cost | 421,058 |  |  | 423,892 |  |
Less: accumulated depreciation | (146,082) |  |  | (145,990) |  |
Property, plant and equipment, net | $ | 274,976 |  |  | $ | 277,902 |  |
Less: Held for sale | (1,554) |  |  | (4,898) |  |
Property, plant and equipment, net | $ | 273,422 |  |  | $ | 273,004 |  |
During the three months ended March 31, 2025, we sold two funeral homes and three cemeteries that had a carrying value of property, plant and equipment of $3.4 million, which was included in the gain on sale and recorded in Net (gain) loss on divestitures, disposals and impairment charges on our Consolidated Statements of Operations, more fully described in Note 4 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Additionally, during the three months ended March 31, 2025, we sold real property for $2.9 million, with a carrying value of $0.9 million, resulting in a $2.0 million gain on the sale, which was recorded in Net (gain) loss on divestitures, disposals and impairment charges on our Consolidated Statements of Operations. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, we sold six funeral homes and one cemetery that had a carrying value of property, plant and equipment of $3.1 million, which was included in the loss on sale and recorded in Net (gain) loss on divestitures, disposals and impairment charges on our Consolidated Statements of Operations. Our growth and maintenance capital expenditures totaled $1.6 million for both the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024. In addition, we recorded depreciation expense of $3.5 million and $3.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Cemetery Property Cemetery property was $109.4 million and $112.9 million, net of accumulated amortization of $71.4 million and $72.6 million at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. When cemetery property is sold, the value of the cemetery property (interment right costs) is expensed as amortization using the specific identification method in the period in which the sale of the interment right is recognized as revenue. Our growth capital expenditures for cemetery property development totaled $1.6 million and $2.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. We recorded amortization expense for cemetery interment rights of $1.8 million for both the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, we sold three cemeteries that had a carrying value of cemetery property of $3.3 million, which was included in the gain on sale and recorded in Net (gain) loss on divestitures, disposals and impairment charges on our Consolidated Statements of Operations, more fully described in Note 4 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, we sold one cemetery that had a carrying value of cemetery property of $0.8 million, which was included in the loss on sale and recorded in Net (gain) loss on divestitures, disposals and impairment charges on our Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Income Taxes | Income Taxes Income tax expense was $5.3 million and $3.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Our operating tax rate before discrete items was 31.2% and 32.8% for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
Subsequent Events | Subsequent Events We have evaluated events and transactions during the period subsequent to March 31, 2025 through the date the financial statements were issued for potential recognition or disclosure in the accompanying consolidated financial statements covered by this report.
Accounting Pronouncements | Income Taxes In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU, Income Taxes - Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures to enhance the transparency about income tax information through improvements to income tax disclosures primarily related to rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information. The amendments in this update require that public business entities on an annual basis (1) disclose specific categories in the rate reconciliation; and (2) provide additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold (if the effect of those reconciling items is equal to or greater than five percent of the amount computed by multiplying pretax income (loss) by the applicable statutory income tax rate). The amendments in this update also require that all entities disclose on an annual basis (1) the amount of net income taxes paid disaggregated by federal and state taxes; and (2) the amount of net income taxes paid disaggregated by individual jurisdictions in which net income taxes paid is equal to or greater than five percent of total net income taxes paid. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024 and therefore were effective for us for our fiscal year beginning January 1, 2025 and for interim periods within our fiscal year beginning January 1, 2026. The adoption had no material impact on our consolidated financial statements as it modified disclosure requirements only. 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.
