EXPLANATORY NOTE
Security National Financial Corporation ("the Company") is filing this Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-K/A (this "Form 10-K/A") to amend its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, as originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on March 31, 2017 (the "Original Filing"), to restate its Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures as of December 31, 2016 and 2015 and for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014 (including the unaudited quarterly periods within 2016, 2015 and 2014). This Form 10-K/A also amends certain other items in the Original Filing, as listed in "Items Amended in This Filing" below.
Background and Effects of Restatement
Subsequent to the Original Filing, the Company identified errors relating to the application of accounting principles that related to its treatment of warehouse line repurchase agreements and its assessment of the tax valuation allowance, which is a component of the Company's deferred tax assets. As disclosed in the Current Report on Form 8-K that was filed by the Company with the SEC on August 4, 2017, the Company's management and the Audit Committee of its Board of Directors determined, based on the preliminary results of an internal investigation, that the Company's consolidated and combined financial statements and related report of independent registered public accounting firm that audited the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, originally filed with the SEC on March 31, 2017, should no longer be relied upon as a result of these errors.
Along with restating its financial statements to correct the errors discussed above, the Company elected to record adjustments for certain immaterial accounting errors related to the periods covered in its Form 10-K/A.
Related financial information in this Form 10-K/A has been restated to reflect adjustments for the accounting errors related to the matters described above. For further details, see Note 21 "Correction of Errors." Restated quarterly information for each of the quarterly periods in the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014 is set forth in Note 22 "Impact of Restatement Adjustments on Quarterly Financial Statements (unaudited)." Restated balances have been identified with the notation "As Restated" where appropriate and the terms "As Previously Reported" and "As Originally Reported" are used to refer to balances from the 2016 consolidated financial statements as reported in the Original Filing.
The Company has not filed amendments to any previously filed Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q to restate financial information presented for the periods affected by the restatement. The Company believes that presenting amended and restated unaudited quarterly financial information in this Form 10-K/A allows the readers to review relevant data in a single presentation along with the revised evaluation of controls and procedures. Accordingly, investors should rely only on the financial information regarding the restated periods in this Form 10-K/A or in future filings with the SEC (as applicable), and not on any previously filed reports relating to those periods. The Company is concurrently filing Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q/A for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2017, which will include disclosure of the effects of the restatement on the comparative March 31, 2016 quarterly period.
Items Amended in This Filing
For the convenience of the reader, this Amendment sets forth the information in the Original Filing, in its entirety, as such information is modified and superseded where necessary to reflect the restatement of the Company's consolidated financial statements as a result of the errors discussed above. References throughout this document to "Form 10-K" have been amended to "Form 10-K/A" where appropriate. Except as noted below, this Amendment does not affect any other parts of the Original Filing, nor does it reflect events occurring after the date of the Original Filing or amend or otherwise update any information in the Original Filing. The following Items have been amended as a result of the restatement:
- Part II, Item 6. Selected Financial Data
- Part II, Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
- Part II, Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
- Part II, Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data
- Part II, Item 9A. Controls and Procedures
- Part IV, Item 15. Exhibits and Financial Statement Schedules
In addition, in accordance with applicable SEC rules, this Amendment includes new certifications required by Rule 13a-14 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 ("Exchange Act") from the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer dated as of the date of filing of this Amendment. These certifications are filed as Exhibits 31.1, 31.2, 32.1 and 32.2.
Internal Control Consideration
The Company's management has reassessed its evaluation of the effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2016. As a result of that reassessment, management identified additional material weaknesses that existed as of December 31, 2016. For a description of the material weaknesses, see Part II, Item 9A. "Controls and Procedures."

PART I
Item 1. Business
Security National Financial Corporation (the "Company") operates in three main business segments: life insurance, cemetery and mortuary, and mortgages. The life insurance segment is engaged in the business of selling and servicing selected lines of life insurance, annuity products, and accident and health insurance. These products are marketed in 38 states through a commissioned sales force of independent licensed insurance agents who may also sell insurance products of other companies. The cemetery and mortuary segment consists of eight mortuaries and five cemeteries in the state of Utah and one cemetery in the state of California. The Company also engages in pre-need selling of funeral, cemetery, mortuary and cremation services through its Utah and California operations. Many of the insurance agents also sell pre-need funeral, cemetery and cremation services. The mortgage segment originates and underwrites or otherwise purchases residential and commercial loans for new construction, existing homes and other real estate projects. The mortgage segment operates through 170 retail and three wholesale offices in 28 states, and is an approved mortgage lender in several other states.
The Company's design and structure are that each business segment is related to the other business segments and contributes to the profitability of the other segments. The Company's cemetery and mortuary segment provides a level of public awareness that assists in the sales and marketing of insurance and pre-need cemetery and funeral products. The Company's insurance segment invests their assets (including, in part, pre-paid funeral products and services) in investments authorized by the respective insurance departments of their states of domicile. The Company also pursues growth through acquisitions. The Company's mortgage segment provides mortgage loans and other real estate investment opportunities.
The Company was organized as a holding company in 1979, when Security National Life Insurance Company ("Security National Life") became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and the former stockholders of Security National Life became stockholders of the Company. Security National Life was formed in 1965 and has acquired or purchased significant blocks of business which include Capital Investors Life Insurance Company (1994), Civil Service Employees Life Insurance Company (1995), Southern Security Life Insurance Company (1998), Menlo Life Insurance Company (1999), Acadian Life Insurance Company (2002), Paramount Security Life Insurance Company (2004), Memorial Insurance Company of America (2005), Capital Reserve Life Insurance Company (2007), Southern Security Life Insurance Company, Inc. (2008), North America Life Insurance Company (2011, 2015), Trans-Western Life Insurance Company (2012), Mothe Life Insurance Company (2012), DLE Life Insurance Company (2012), American Republic Insurance Company (2015) and First Guaranty Insurance Company (2016).
The cemetery and mortuary operations have also grown through the acquisition of other cemetery and mortuary companies. The cemetery and mortuary companies that the Company has acquired are Holladay Memorial Park, Inc. (1991), Cottonwood Mortuary, Inc. (1991) and Deseret Memorial, Inc. (1991).
In 1993, the Company formed SecurityNational Mortgage Company ("SecurityNational Mortgage") to originate and refinance residential mortgage loans. In 2012, the Company formed Green Street Mortgage Services, Inc. (now known as EverLEND Mortgage Company) ("EverLEND Mortgage") also to originate and refinance residential mortgage loans.
See Note 14 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding business segments of the Company.
Life Insurance
Products
The Company, through Security National Life, issues and distributes selected lines of life insurance and annuities. The Company's life insurance business includes funeral plans and interest-sensitive life insurance, as well as other traditional life, accident and health insurance products. The Company places specific marketing emphasis on funeral plans through pre-need planning. The Company's other insurance subsidiaries, First Guaranty Insurance Company ("First Guaranty"), Memorial Insurance Company of America ("Memorial Insurance"), Southern Security Life Insurance Company, Inc. ("Southern Security") and Trans-Western Life Insurance Company ("Trans-Western"), service and maintain policies that were purchased prior to their acquisition by Security National Life.

A funeral plan is a small face value life insurance policy that generally has face coverage of up to $25,000. The Company believes that funeral plans represent a marketing niche that has lower competition because most insurance companies do not offer similar coverage. The purpose of the funeral plan policy is to pay the costs and expenses incurred at the time of a person's death. On a per thousand-dollar cost of insurance basis, these policies can be more expensive to the policyholder than many types of non-burial insurance due to their low face amount, requiring the fixed cost of the policy administration to be distributed over a smaller policy size, and the simplified underwriting practices that result in higher mortality costs.
Markets and Distribution
The Company is licensed to sell insurance in 38 states. The Company, in marketing its life insurance products, seeks to locate, develop and service specific niche markets. The Company's funeral plan policies are sold primarily to persons who range in age from 45 to 85 and have low to moderate income. A majority of the Company's funeral plan premiums come from the states of Arkansas, California, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, Texas and Utah.
The Company sells its life insurance products through direct agents, brokers and independent licensed agents who may also sell insurance products of other companies. The commissions on life insurance products range from approximately 50% to 120% of first year premiums. In those cases, where the Company utilizes its direct agents in selling such policies, those agents customarily receive advances against future commissions.
In some instances, funeral plan insurance is marketed in conjunction with the Company's cemetery and mortuary sales force. When it is marketed by that group, the beneficiary is usually the Company's cemeteries and mortuaries. Thus, death benefits that become payable under the policy are paid to the Company's cemetery and mortuary subsidiaries to the extent of services performed and products purchased.
In marketing funeral plan insurance, the Company also seeks and obtains third-party endorsements from other cemeteries and mortuaries within its marketing areas. Typically, these cemeteries and mortuaries will provide letters of endorsement and may share in mailing and other lead-generating costs since these businesses are usually made the beneficiary of the policy. The following table summarizes the life insurance business for the five years ended December 31, 2016:

|  | 2016 |  |  |  |  | 2015 |  |  | 2014 |  |  | 2013 |  |  | 2012 |  |  |

(1) | Includes coinsurance with Mothe Life Insurance Company and DLE Life Insurance Company.
(2) | Includes the acquisition of First Guaranty Insurance Company and the termination of the reinsurance assumed for Servicemembers' Group Life Insurance ("SGLI").

Underwriting
The factors considered in evaluating an application for ordinary life insurance coverage can include the applicant's age, occupation, general health and medical history. Upon receipt of a satisfactory (non-funeral plan insurance) application, which contains pertinent medical questions, the Company issues insurance based upon its medical limits and requirements subject to the following general non‑medical limits:

Age Nearest Birthday |  | Non‑Medical Limits |
0‑50 |  | $ | 100,000 |
51‑up |  | Medical information required (APS or exam) |

When underwriting life insurance, the Company will sometimes issue policies with higher premium rates for substandard risks.
The Company's funeral plan insurance is written on a simplified medical application with underwriting requirements being a completed application, a phone inspection on the applicant, and a Medical Information Bureau inquiry. There are several underwriting classes in which an applicant can be placed.

Annuities
Products
The Company's annuity business includes single premium deferred annuities, flexible premium deferred annuities and immediate annuities. A single premium deferred annuity is a contract where the individual remits a sum of money to the Company, which is retained on deposit until such time as the individual may wish to annuitize or surrender the contract for cash. A flexible premium deferred annuity gives the contract holder the right to make premium payments of varying amounts or to make no further premium payments after his initial payment. These single and flexible premium deferred annuities can have initial surrender charges. The surrender charges act as a deterrent to individuals who may wish to prematurely surrender their annuity contracts. An immediate annuity is a contract in which the individual remits a sum of money to the Company in return for the Company's obligation to pay a series of payments on a periodic basis over a designated period of time, such as an individual's life, or for such other period as may be designated.
Annuities have guaranteed interest rates that range from 1% to 6.5% per annum. Rates above the guaranteed interest rate credited are periodically modified by the Board of Directors at their discretion. In order for the Company to realize a profit on an annuity product, the Company must maintain an interest rate spread between its investment income and the interest rate credited to the annuities. Commissions, issuance expenses and general and administrative expenses are deducted from this interest rate spread.
Markets and Distribution
The general market for the Company's annuities is middle to older age individuals. A major source of annuity sales come from direct agents and are sold in conjunction with other insurance sales. If an individual does not qualify for a funeral plan, the agent will often sell that individual an annuity to fund final expenses.
The following table summarizes the annuity business for the five years ended December 31, 2016:

|  | 2016 |  |  |  |  | 2015 |  |  | 2014 |  |  | 2013 |  |  | 2012 |

(1) | Includes the acquisition of First Guaranty Insurance Company.

Accident and Health
Products
With the acquisition of Capital Investors in 1994, the Company acquired a small block of accident and health policies. Since 1999, the Company has offered a low-cost comprehensive diver's accident policy that provides worldwide coverage for medical expense reimbursement in the event of a diving accident.
Markets and Distribution
The Company currently markets its diver's accident policies through the internet.
The following table summarizes the accident and health insurance business for the five years ended December 31, 2016:

Reinsurance
The primary purpose of reinsurance is to enable an insurance company to issue an insurance policy in an amount larger than the risk the insurance company is willing to assume for itself. The insurance company remains obligated for the amounts reinsured (ceded) in the event the reinsurers do not meet their obligations.
The Company currently cedes and assumes certain risks with various authorized unaffiliated reinsurers pursuant to reinsurance treaties, which are generally renewed annually. The premiums paid by the Company are based on a number of factors, primarily including the age of the insured and the risk ceded to the reinsurer.
It is the Company's policy to retain no more than $100,000 of ordinary insurance per insured life, with the excess risk being reinsured. The total amount of life insurance reinsured by other companies as of December 31, 2016, was $65,040,000, which represents approximately 3.9% of the Company's life insurance in force on that date.
See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Condition" and "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements" for additional disclosure and discussion regarding reinsurance.
Investments
The investments that support the Company's life insurance and annuity obligations are determined by the investment committees of the Company's subsidiaries and ratified by the full Board of Directors of the respective subsidiaries. A significant portion of the Company's investments must meet statutory requirements governing the nature and quality of permitted investments by its insurance subsidiaries. The Company maintains a diversified investment portfolio consisting of common stocks, preferred stocks, municipal bonds, investment and non‑investment grade bonds, mortgage loans, real estate, short-term investments and other securities and investments.
See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Condition" and "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements" for additional disclosure and discussion regarding investments.
Cemetery and Mortuary
Products
Through its cemetery and mortuary operations, the Company markets a variety of products and services both on a pre-need basis (prior to death) and an at-need basis (at the time of death). The products include: plots, interment vaults, mausoleum crypts, markers, caskets, flowers and other death care related products. These services include: professional services of funeral directors, opening and closing of graves, use of chapels and viewing rooms, and use of automobiles and clothing. The Company has a mortuary at each of its cemeteries, other than Holladay Memorial Park and Singing Hills Memorial Park, and has four separate stand-alone mortuary facilities.
Markets and Distribution
The Company's pre‑need cemetery and mortuary sales are marketed to persons of all ages but are generally purchased by persons 45 years of age and older. The Company is limited in its geographic distribution of these products to areas lying within an approximate 20-mile radius of its mortuaries and cemeteries. The Company's at-need sales are similarly limited in geographic area.
The Company actively seeks to sell its cemetery and funeral products to customers on a pre‑need basis. The Company employs cemetery sales representatives on a commission basis to sell these products. Many of these pre-need cemetery and mortuary sales representatives are also licensed insurance salesmen and sell funeral plan insurance. In some instances, the Company's cemetery and mortuary facilities are the named beneficiaries of the funeral plan policies.
Potential customers are located via telephone sales prospecting, responses to letters mailed by the pre-planning consultants, newspaper inserts, referrals, and door-to-door canvassing. The Company trains its sales representatives and helps generate leads for them.

Mortgage Loans
Products
The Company, through its wholly owned subsidiaries, SecurityNational Mortgage and EverLEND Mortgage, are active in the residential real estate market. SecurityNational Mortgage is approved by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), the Federal National Mortgage Association (Fannie Mae), and other secondary market investors, to originate a variety of residential mortgage loan products, which are subsequently sold to investors. EverLEND Mortgage is approved by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), and other secondary market investors, to originate a variety of residential mortgage loan products, which are subsequently sold to investors. The Company uses internal and external funding sources to fund mortgage loans.
Security National Life originates and funds commercial real estate loans, residential construction loans and land development loans for internal investment.
Markets and Distribution

Recent Acquisitions and Other Business Activities
Acquisition of First Guaranty Insurance Company
On July 11, 2016, the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary, Security National Life, completed a stock purchase transaction with the shareholders of Reppond Holding Corporation, an Arkansas corporation ("Reppond Holding") and sole shareholder of First Guaranty Insurance Company, a Louisiana domestic stock legal reserve life insurance company ("First Guaranty"), to purchase all the outstanding shares of common stock of Reppond Holding. Under the terms of the stock purchase agreement, dated February 17, 2016, between Security Life and Reppond Holding, which was later amended on March 4 and 17, 2016, Security Life paid a total of $6,753,000 at the closing in consideration for the purchase of all the outstanding shares of stock of Reppond Holding from its shareholders.
Reinsurance Agreement with North America Life Insurance Company
On May 8, 2015, the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary, Security National Life, signed a paid-up business offer under a coinsurance agreement that was effective December 1, 2010 to reinsure certain life insurance policies from North America Life Insurance Company ("North America Life"). Pursuant to the paid-up business offer, North America Life ceded and transferred to Security National Life all contractual obligations and risks under the coinsured policies. Security National Life paid a ceding commission to North America Life in the amount of $281,908. As a result of the ceding commission, North America Life transferred $8,900,282 of cash and $9,182,190 in statutory reserves, or liabilities, to Security National Life.
Reinsurance Agreement with American Republic Insurance Company
On February 11, 2015, the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary, Security National Life, signed a coinsurance agreement to reinsure certain life insurance policies from American Republic Insurance Company ("American Republic"). The policies were previously reinsured by North America Life under a coinsurance agreement between World Insurance Company ("World Insurance") and North America Life that was entered into on July 22, 2009, which was subsequently commuted. World Insurance was subsequently purchased by and merged into American Republic. The current coinsurance agreement is now between Security National Life and American Republic and became effective on January 1, 2015. As part of the coinsurance agreement, American Republic transferred all contractual obligations and risks to Security National Life and Security National Life took control of $15,004,771 of assets in a trust account held by Texas Capital Bank as the trustee. The assets have subsequently been moved to a trust account held by Zions Bank as the trustee.
Real Estate Development
The Company is capitalizing on the opportunity to develop commercial assets on its existing properties. The cost to acquire existing for-sale assets currently exceeds the replacement costs, thus creating the opportunity for development and redevelopment of the land the company currently owns. The Company has developed, or is in the process of developing assets that have an initial development cost exceeding $100,000,000. The group plans to continue its development endeavors as the market demands.

Dry Creek at East Village Apartments
The construction of Dry Creek at East Village Apartments ("Dry Creek") was completed in December 2015. The total project consists of 282 units and contains a mixture of one, two and three bedroom units. It is located within close proximity to a transit hub and as of December 31, 2016, was 94% occupied. Rental rates increased in the market by 9.8% over pro forma rents, and effective (achieved) rates net of concessions also increased. Leasing remains strong and vacancy rates in the market remain below the long-term average.
As Dry Creek has matured in its leasing and operations, the management group has pushed to retain tenants and increase the resident experience. This optimism has seen great acceptance as Dry Creek continues to maintain longer term residents and management offers a Class A living experience in the suburban market of Salt Lake City. The Company continues to view Dry Creek as a long-term investment with strong upside potential in a growing market.
53rd Center Development
In 2015 the Company broke ground and commenced development on the first phase of its new corporate campus. The anticipated project, comprising nearly 20 acres of land that is currently owned by the Company in the central valley of Salt Lake City, is envisioned to be a multi-year, phased development. At full development, the project will include nearly one million square-feet in six buildings, ranging from four to ten stories, and will be serviced by three parking structures with about 4,000 stalls.
The first phase of the project includes a building and a parking garage consisting of nearly 200,000 square feet of office and retail space with 748 parking stalls. This phase of the campus is expected to be completed in the third quarter of 2017.
Regulation
The Company's insurance subsidiaries are subject to comprehensive regulation in the jurisdictions in which they do business under statutes and regulations administered by state insurance commissioners. Such regulation relates to, among other things, prior approval of the acquisition of a controlling interest in an insurance company; standards of solvency which must be met and maintained; licensing of insurers and their agents; nature of and limitations on investments; deposits of securities for the benefit of policyholders; approval of policy forms and premium rates; periodic examinations of the affairs of insurance companies; annual and other reports required to be filed on the financial condition of insurers or for other purposes; and requirements regarding aggregate reserves for life policies and annuity contracts, policy claims, unearned premiums, and other matters. The Company's insurance subsidiaries are subject to this type of regulation in any state in which they are licensed to do business. Such regulation could involve additional costs, restrict operations or delay implementation of the Company's business plans.
The Company's life insurance subsidiaries are currently subject to regulation in Utah, Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi and Texas under insurance holding company legislation, and other states where applicable. Generally, intercompany transfers of assets and dividend payments from insurance subsidiaries are subject to prior notice of approval from the state insurance department, if they are deemed "extraordinary" under these statutes. The insurance subsidiaries are required, under state insurance laws, to file detailed annual reports with the supervisory agencies in each of the states in which they do business. Their business and accounts are also subject to examination by these agencies. The Texas Department of Banking also audits pre-need insurance policies that are issued in the state of Texas. Pre-need policies are life and annuity products sold as the funding mechanism for funeral plans through funeral homes by Security National agents. The Company is required to send the Texas Department of Banking an annual report that summarizes the number of policies in force and the face amount or death benefit for each policy. This annual report also indicates the number of new policies issued for that year, all death claims paid that year, and all premiums received.
The Company's cemetery and mortuary subsidiaries are subject to the Federal Trade Commission's comprehensive funeral industry rules and to state regulations in the various states where such operations are domiciled. The morticians must be licensed by the respective state in which they provide their services. Similarly, the mortuaries and cemeteries are governed and licensed by state statutes and city ordinances in Utah and California. Reports are required to be kept on file on a yearly basis which include financial information concerning the number of spaces sold and, where applicable, funds provided to the Endowment Care Trust Fund. Licenses are issued annually on the basis of such reports. The cemeteries maintain city or county licenses where they conduct business.

The Company's mortgage subsidiaries are subject to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), and to various state licensing acts and regulations and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB). These regulations, among other things, specify minimum capital requirements, procedures for loan origination and underwriting, licensing of brokers and loan officers, quality review audits and the fees that can be charged to borrowers. Each year, the Company is required to have an audit completed for each mortgage subsidiary by an independent registered public accounting firm to verify compliance under some of these regulations. In addition to the government regulations, the Company must meet loan requirements, and underwriting guidelines of various investors who purchase the loans.
Income Taxes
The Company's insurance subsidiaries, Security National Life and First Guaranty, are taxed under the Life Insurance Company Tax Act of 1984. Under the act, life insurance companies are taxed at standard corporate rates on life insurance company taxable income. Life insurance company taxable income is gross income less general business deductions, reserves for future policyholder benefits (with modifications), and a small life insurance company deduction (up to 60% of life insurance company taxable income). The Company may be subject to the corporate Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT). Also, under the Tax Reform Act of 1986, distributions in excess of stockholders' surplus account or a significant decrease in life reserves will result in taxable income.
Security National Life and First Guaranty calculate their life insurance taxable income after establishing a provision representing a portion of the costs of acquisition of such life insurance business. The effect of the provision is that a certain percentage of the Company's premium income is characterized as deferred expenses and recognized over a five or ten-year period.
The Company's non‑life insurance company subsidiaries are taxed in general under the regular corporate tax provisions. The following subsidiaries are regulated as life insurance companies but do not meet the Internal Revenue Code definition of a life insurance company so are taxed as insurance companies other than life insurance companies: Memorial Insurance, Southern Security and Trans-Western.
Competition
The life insurance industry is highly competitive. There are approximately 2,000 legal reserve life insurance companies in business in the United States. These insurance companies differentiate themselves through marketing techniques, product features, price and customer service. The Company's insurance subsidiaries compete with a large number of insurance companies, many of which have greater financial resources, a longer business history, and more diversified line of insurance products than the Company. In addition, such companies generally have a larger sales force. Further, the Company competes with mutual insurance companies which may have a competitive advantage because all profits accrue to policyholders. Because the Company is smaller by industry standards and lacks broad diversification of risk, it may be more vulnerable to losses than larger, better-established companies. The Company believes that its policies and rates for the markets it serves are generally competitive.
The cemetery and mortuary industry is also highly competitive. In the Utah and California markets where the Company competes, there are a number of cemeteries and mortuaries which have longer business histories, more established positions in the community, and stronger financial positions than the Company. In addition, some of the cemeteries with which the Company must compete for sales are owned by municipalities and, as a result, can offer lower prices than can the Company. The Company bears the cost of a pre‑need sales program that is not incurred by those competitors which do not have a pre‑need sales force. The Company believes that its products and prices are generally competitive with those in the industry.
The mortgage industry is highly competitive with a large number of mortgage companies and banks in the same geographic area in which the Company is operating. The mortgage industry in general is sensitive to changes in interest rates and the refinancing market is particularly vulnerable to changes in interest rates.
Employees
As of December 31, 2016, the Company had 1,393 full-time and 264 part-time employees.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings
Lehman Brothers and Aurora Loan Services Litigation - Utah
On April 15, 2005, SecurityNational Mortgage entered into a Loan Purchase Agreement with Lehman Brothers Bank, FSB ("Lehman Bank") which agreement incorporated a Seller's Guide. Pursuant to the Loan Purchase Agreement, Lehman Bank purchased mortgage loans from time to time from SecurityNational Mortgage. Lehman Bank asserted that certain of the mortgage loans that it purchased from SecurityNational Mortgage contained alleged misrepresentations and early payment defaults. As a result, Lehman Bank contended it had the right to require SecurityNational Mortgage to repurchase certain loans or be liable for losses related to such Loans under the Loan Purchase Agreement. SecurityNational Mortgage disagreed with these claims.
On December 17, 2007, SecurityNational Mortgage entered into an Indemnification Agreement with Lehman Bank and Aurora Loan Services LLC ("Aurora"). Under the terms of the Indemnification Agreement, SecurityNational Mortgage agreed to indemnify Lehman Bank and Aurora for certain amounts of actual losses, as defined, that Lehman Bank and Aurora may incur on account of the alleged breaches and early payment defaults pertaining to certain identified loans. A reserve account was set up to cover said losses. From the time the reserve account was established, approximately $4,300,000 was taken from the reserve account to indemnify Lehman Bank and Aurora for alleged losses. On March 28, 2011, Aurora Bank FSB (formerly known as Lehman Brothers Bank, FSB) ("Aurora Bank") and Aurora allegedly assigned certain rights and remedies under the Indemnification Agreement to Lehman Brothers Holdings, Inc. ("Lehman Holdings").
13

On May 11, 2011, SecurityNational Mortgage filed a complaint against Aurora Bank and Aurora in the United States District Court, Utah, which was assigned to Judge David Nuffer. The allegations in the complaint included breach of the Indemnification Agreement. SecurityNational Mortgage claimed it was entitled to a judgment of approximately $4,000,000 against Aurora Bank, as well as Aurora to the extent of its involvement, for payments which should not have been taken from the reserve account.
On June 8, 2011, Lehman Holdings, which had filed for bankruptcy in September 2008, filed a complaint in the United States District Court, Utah against SecurityNational Mortgage. The case was assigned to Judge Ted Stewart. The complaint alleged claims for damages for breach of contract and breach of warranty pursuant to the Loan Purchase Agreement, as well as alleged early payment default loans, and initially claimed damages in excess of $5,000,000. Lehman Holdings further alleged that Aurora Bank sold mortgage loans to it and assigned contractual rights and remedies. SecurityNational Mortgage strongly disagreed with the claims in Lehman Holdings' complaint.
On November 29, 2016, Judge Nuffer entered a judgment in favor of SecurityNational Mortgage Company, jointly and severally against Aurora Commercial Corporation (successor by merger to Aurora Bank), Aurora Bank and Aurora. The amount of the judgment was $3,892,974 principal, plus interest through May 31, 2014 in the amount of $1,674,240, plus interest for each day after May 31, 2014 until judgment (dated November 29, 2016) at the rate of $960 per diem.
In December 2016, the cases before Judge Nuffer and Judge Stewart were settled. Final settlement agreements were executed on December 20, 2016, which were effective as of December 9, 2016. Under the terms of the settlement, payments were made by Aurora Commercial to SecurityNational Mortgage, and by SecurityNational Mortgage to Lehman Holdings. The net result of the settlement involving both of the Utah cases was that $2,125,000 more was paid to Lehman Holdings. Additionally, the release agreed to by the parties covered claims arising from the sale of mortgage loans by SecurityNational Mortgage to Aurora Bank or Lehman Holdings that were included in the Utah cases.
Lehman Brothers Litigation – Delaware and New York
In January 2014, Lehman Holdings entered into a settlement with the Federal National Mortgage Association (Fannie Mae) concerning the mortgage loan claims asserted by Fannie Mae against Lehman Holdings that were based on alleged breaches of certain representations and warranties by Lehman Holdings. Lehman Holdings had acquired these loans from Aurora Bank, which in turn purchased the loans from residential mortgage loan originators, including SecurityNational Mortgage. A settlement based on similar circumstances was entered into between Lehman Holdings and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (Freddie Mac) in February 2014.
Lehman Holdings filed a motion in May 2014 with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court of the Southern District of New York to require the mortgage loan originators, including SecurityNational Mortgage, to engage in non-binding mediations of its alleged indemnification claims against the mortgage loan originators relative to the Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac settlements with Lehman Holdings. The mediation was not successful in resolving any issues between SecurityNational Mortgage and Lehman Holdings.
On January 26, 2016, SecurityNational Mortgage filed a declaratory judgment action against Lehman Holdings in the Superior Court for the State of Delaware. In the Delaware action, SecurityNational Mortgage asserted its right to obtain a declaration of rights in that there are allegedly millions of dollars in dispute with Lehman Holdings pertaining to approximately 136 loans. SecurityNational Mortgage sought declaratory judgment as to its rights as it contends that it has no liability to Lehman Holdings as a result of Lehman Holdings' settlements with Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. Lehman Holdings filed a motion in the Delaware court seeking to stay or dismiss the declaratory judgment action. On August 24, 2016, the Court ruled that it would exercise its discretion to decline jurisdiction over the action and granted Lehman Holdings' motion to dismiss.
On February 3, 2016, Lehman Holdings filed an adversary proceeding against approximately 150 mortgage loan originators, including SecurityNational Mortgage, in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court of the Southern District of New York seeking a declaration of rights similar in nature to the declaration that SecurityNational Mortgage sought in its Delaware lawsuit, and for damages relating to the defendants' obligations under indemnification provisions of the alleged agreements, in amounts to be determined at trial, including interest, attorneys' fees and costs incurred by Lehman Holdings in enforcing the obligations of the defendants. A Case Management Order ("CMO") was entered on November 1, 2016. On December 27, 2016, pursuant to the CMO, Lehman Holdings filed a Second Amended Complaint against SecurityNational Mortgage. The case is presently in a motion period and no Answer is required to be filed by SecurityNational Mortgage pending further order of the Court. SecurityNational Mortgage denies that it has any liability to Lehman Holdings and intends to vigorously protect and defend such position.
The Company is not a party to any other material legal proceedings outside the ordinary course of business or to any other legal proceedings, which if adversely determined, would have a material adverse effect on its financial condition or results of operation.

The Class C common stock is not registered or traded on a national exchange. See Note 11 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
The Company has never paid a cash dividend on its Class A or Class C common stock. The Company currently anticipates that all of its earnings will be retained for use in the operation and expansion of its business and does not intend to pay any cash dividends on its Class A or Class C common stock in the foreseeable future. Any future determination as to cash dividends will depend upon the earnings and financial position of the Company and such other factors as the Board of Directors may deem appropriate. A 5% stock dividend on Class A and Class C common stock has been paid each year from 1990 through 2016.
The graph below compares the cumulative total stockholder return of the Company's Class A common stock with the cumulative total return on the Standard & Poor's 500 Stock Index and the Standard & Poor's Insurance Index for the period from December 31, 2011 through December 31, 2016. The graph assumes that the value of the investment in the Company's Class A common stock and in each of the indexes was $100 at December 31, 2011 and that all dividends were reinvested.

Item 6. Selected Financial Data
As a smaller reporting company, the Company is not required to provide information typically disclosed under this item.
Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Overview
The accompanying management's discussion and analysis gives effect to the restatement discussed in Note 21 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
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 relatively low interest rates by originating mortgage loans.
Insurance Operations
The following table shows the condensed financial results for the Company's insurance operations for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014. See Note 14 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

|  | Years ended December 31 (in thousands of dollars) |  |
|  | 2016 |  |  | 2015 |  |  | 2016 vs 2015 % Increase (Decrease) |  |  | 2014 |  |  | 2015 vs 2014 % Increase (Decrease) |  |
Revenues from external customers |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Insurance premiums |  | $ | 64,501 |  |  | $ | 56,410 |  |  |  | 14 | % |  | $ | 53,009 |  |  |  | 6 | % |
Net investment income |  |  | 28,618 |  |  |  | 25,297 |  |  |  | 13 | % |  |  | 23,008 |  |  |  | 10 | % |
Revenues from loan originations |  |  | 2,401 |  |  |  | 2,474 |  |  |  | (3 | %) |  |  | 4,029 |  |  |  | (39 | %) |
Other |  |  | 85 |  |  |  | 2,744 |  |  |  | (97 | %) |  |  | 1,727 |  |  |  | 59 | % |
Total |  | $ | 95,605 |  |  | $ | 86,925 |  |  |  | 10 | % |  | $ | 81,773 |  |  |  | 6 | % |
Intersegment revenue |  | $ | 7,120 |  |  | $ | 7,615 |  |  |  | (7 | %) |  | $ | 6,128 |  |  |  | 24 | % |
Earnings before income taxes |  | $ | 7,858 |  |  | $ | 8,619 |  |  |  | (9 | %) |  | $ | 8,626 |  |  |  | 0 | % |

Intersegment revenues for the Company's insurance operations are primarily interest income from the warehouse line provided to SecurityNational Mortgage Company. Profitability in 2016 has decreased due to a decrease in realized gains on investments and other assets, which was partially offset by an increase in net investment income and an increase in insurance premiums.
Cemetery and Mortuary Operations
The following table shows the condensed financial results for the Company's cemetery and mortuary operations for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014. See Note 14 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

|  | Years ended December 31 (in thousands of dollars) |
|  | 2016 |  |  | 2015 |  |  | 2016 vs 2015 % Increase (Decrease) |  |  | 2014 |  |  | 2015 vs 2014 % Increase (Decrease) |
Revenues from external customers |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Mortuary revenues |  | $ | 4,848 |  |  | $ | 4,628 |  |  |  | 5 | % |  | $ | 4,801 |  |  |  | (4 | %)
Cemetery revenues |  |  | 7,420 |  |  |  | 6,874 |  |  |  | 8 | % |  |  | 6,625 |  |  |  | 4 | %
Realized gains on investments and other assets |  |  | 211 |  |  |  | 387 |  |  |  | (45 | %) |  |  | 586 |  |  |  | (34 | %)
Other |  |  | 401 |  |  |  | 598 |  |  |  | (33 | %) |  |  | 445 |  |  |  | 34 | %
Total |  | $ | 12,880 |  |  | $ | 12,487 |  |  |  | 3 | % |  | $ | 12,457 |  |  |  | 0 | %
Earnings before income taxes |  | $ | 1,219 |  |  | $ | 914 |  |  |  | 33 | % |  | $ | 663 |  |  |  | 38 | %

The majority of the realized gain in the Company's cemetery and mortuary operations in 2014 was due to the sale of real estate located in Phoenix, Arizona. Included in other revenue was rental income from residential and commercial properties purchased from Security National Life. Memorial Estates used financing provided by Security National Life to purchase these properties. The rental income was offset by property insurance, taxes, maintenance expenses and interest payments made to Security National Life. Memorial Estates recorded depreciation on these properties of $715,000, $858,000 and $945,000 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
17

Mortgage Operations
Approximately 64% of the Company's revenues for the fiscal year 2016 were through its wholly owned subsidiaries, SecurityNational Mortgage and EverLEND Mortgage. Both mortgage subsidiaries are mortgage lenders incorporated under the laws of the State of Utah and approved and regulated by the Federal Housing Administration (FHA), a department of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), which originate mortgage loans that qualify for government insurance in the event of default by the borrower, in addition to various conventional mortgage loan products. SecurityNational Mortgage and EverLEND Mortgage obtain mortgage loans originated in retail offices and through independent brokers. Mortgage loans originated by the Company's mortgage subsidiaries are funded through loan purchase agreements from Security National Life and unaffiliated financial institutions.
The Company's mortgage subsidiaries receive fees from the borrowers and secondary fees from third party investors that purchase their loans. Loans originated by SecurityNational Mortgage are generally sold with mortgage servicing rights released to third party investors or retained by SecurityNational Mortgage. SecurityNational Mortgage currently retains the mortgage servicing rights on approximately 30% of its loan origination volume. These loans are serviced by an approved third party sub-servicer.
For the twelve months ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, SecurityNational Mortgage originated 16,022 loans ($3,097,872,000 total volume), 14,976 loans ($2,843,455,000 total volume), and 10,794 loans ($2,037,337,000 total volume), respectively. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, EverLEND Mortgage originated three loans ($838,000 total volume), 79 loans ($17,949,000 total volume), and 33 loans ($7,298,000 total volume), respectively.
The following table shows the condensed financial results for the Company's mortgage operations for the years ended 2016, 2015 and 2014. See Note 14 and Note 21 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

|  | Years ended December 31 (in thousands of dollars) |
|  | 2016 |  |  | 2015 |  |  | 2016 vs 2015 % Increase (Decrease) |  |  | 2014 |  |  | 2015 vs 2014 % Increase (Decrease) |
Revenues from external customers: |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Revenues from loan originations |  | $ | 146,465 |  |  | $ | 134,832 |  |  |  | 9 | % |  | $ | 100,917 |  |  |  | 34 | %

The increase in revenues for the Company's mortgage operations for the twelve months ended December 31, 2016 as compared to December 31, 2015 was due to an increase in mortgage loan originations and fee income from the loan originations.
Mortgage Loan Loss Settlements
Future loan losses can be extremely difficult to estimate. However, management believes that the Company's reserve methodology and its current practice of property preservation allow it to estimate potential losses on loans sold. The amounts expensed for loan losses in years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015 were $4,689,000 and $6,295,000, respectively. The estimated liability for indemnification losses is included in other liabilities and accrued expenses and, as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, the balances were $628,000 and $2,806,000, respectively.
Settlement of Investigation by U.S. Department of Justice and the Office of the Inspector General for the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) of Certain FHA-Insured Mortgage Loans Originated
On September 30, 2016, the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary, SecurityNational Mortgage, announced the execution of a settlement agreement with the U.S. Department of Justice and the United States Attorney's Office in connection with the origination and underwriting by SecurityNational Mortgage of certain Federal Housing Administration (FHA) insured loans. SecurityNational Mortgage, like many other high volume FHA-approved lenders, was being reviewed by the U.S. Department of Justice and the Office of the Inspector General of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) for loan origination activities that occurred as long as nine years ago.
18

Without any admission of liability and in order to avoid the extended distractions and expenses associated with protracted litigation, SecurityNational Mortgage made a business decision to resolve this matter. Pursuant to the settlement agreement, SecurityNational Mortgage was required to make a payment in the amount of $4,250,000 to the U.S. Department of Justice, which payment was made on October 4, 2016. SecurityNational Mortgage continues to be able to originate FHA-insured mortgage loans and participate fully in all FHA programs as this settlement agreement does not affect SecurityNational Mortgage's status with the Department of Housing and Urban Development. In addition, this settlement does not include any allegations or findings against any particular individuals, such as officers, directors, employees or agents of SecurityNational Mortgage.

Significant Accounting Policies
The following is a brief summary of our significant accounting policies and a review of our most critical accounting estimates. See Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
Insurance Operations
In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (GAAP), premiums and other considerations received for interest sensitive products are reflected as increases in liabilities for policyholder account balances and not as revenues. Revenues reported for these products consist of policy charges for the cost of insurance, administration charges, amortization of policy initiation fees and surrender charges assessed against policyholder account balances. Surrender benefits paid relating to these products are reflected as decreases in liabilities for policyholder account balances and not as expenses.
The Company receives investment income earned from the funds deposited into account balances, a portion of which is passed through to the policyholders in the form of interest credited. Interest credited to policyholder account balances and benefit claims in excess of policyholder account balances are reported as expenses in the consolidated financial statements.
Premiums and other considerations received for traditional life insurance products are recognized as revenues when due. Future policy benefits are recognized as expenses over the life of the policy by means of the provision for future policy benefits.
The costs related to acquiring new business, including certain costs of issuing policies and other variable selling expenses (principally commissions), defined as deferred policy acquisition costs, are capitalized and amortized into expense. For nonparticipating traditional life products, these costs are amortized over the premium paying period of the related policies, in proportion to the ratio of annual premium revenues to total anticipated premium revenues. Such anticipated premium revenues are estimated using the same assumption used for computing liabilities for future policy benefits and are generally "locked in" at the date the policies are issued. For interest sensitive products, these costs are amortized generally in proportion to expected gross profits from surrender charges and investment, mortality and expense margins. This amortization is adjusted when the Company revises the estimate of current or future gross profits or margins. For example, deferred policy acquisition costs are amortized earlier than originally estimated when policy terminations are higher than originally estimated or when investments backing the related policyholder liabilities are sold at a gain prior to their anticipated maturity.
Death and other policyholder benefits reflect exposure to mortality risk and fluctuate from year to year on the level of claims incurred under insurance retention limits. The profitability of the Company is primarily affected by fluctuations in mortality, other policyholder benefits, expense levels, interest spreads (i.e., the difference between interest earned on investments and interest credited to policyholders) and persistency. The Company has the ability to mitigate adverse experience through sound underwriting, asset and liability duration matching, sound actuarial practices, adjustments to credited interest rates, policyholder dividends and cost of insurance charges.
19

Cemetery and Mortuary Operations
Pre-need sales of funeral services and caskets, including revenue and costs associated with the sales of pre-need funeral services and caskets, are deferred until the services are performed or the caskets are delivered.
Pre-need sales of cemetery interment rights (cemetery burial property), including revenue and costs associated with the sales of pre-need cemetery interment rights, are recognized in accordance with the retail land sales provisions of GAAP. Under GAAP, recognition of revenue and associated costs from constructed cemetery property must be deferred until a minimum percentage of the sales price has been collected. Revenues related to the pre-need sale of unconstructed cemetery property will be deferred until such property is constructed and meets the criteria of GAAP, described above.
Pre-need sales of cemetery merchandise (primarily markers and vaults), including revenue and costs associated with the sales of pre-need cemetery merchandise, are deferred until the merchandise is delivered.
Pre-need sales of cemetery services (primarily merchandise delivery and installation fees and burial opening and closing fees), including revenue and costs associated with the sales of pre-need cemetery services, are deferred until the services are performed.
Prearranged funeral and pre-need cemetery customer obtaining costs, including costs incurred related to obtaining new pre-need cemetery and prearranged funeral business are accounted for under the guidance of the provisions of GAAP related to Financial Services - Insurance. Obtaining costs, which include only costs that vary with and are primarily related to the acquisition of new pre-need cemetery and prearranged funeral business, are deferred until the merchandise is delivered or services are performed.
Revenues and costs for at‑need sales are recorded when a valid contract exists, the services are performed, collection is reasonably assured, and there are no significant obligations remaining.
Mortgage Operations
Mortgage fee income consists of origination fees, processing fees and certain other income related to the origination and sale of mortgage loans. For mortgage loans sold to third party investors, mortgage fee income and related expenses are recognized pursuant to GAAP at the time the sales of the mortgage loans comply with the sales criteria for the transfer of financial assets. The sales criteria are as follows: (i) the transferred assets have been isolated from the Company and its creditors, (ii) the transferee has the right to pledge or exchange the mortgage, and (iii) the Company does not maintain effective control over the transferred mortgage.
The Company has determined that all three sales criteria are met at the time a mortgage loan is purchased by a third party investor. Until the loan is purchased, all direct selling revenues and costs are deferred.
The Company sells mortgage loans to third party investors without recourse. It may be required, however, to repurchase a loan or pay a fee instead of repurchase under certain events, which include the following:

· | Failure to deliver original documents specified by the investor,
· | The existence of misrepresentation or fraud in the origination of the loan,
· | The loan becomes delinquent due to nonpayment during the first several months after it is sold,
· | Early pay-off of a loan, as defined by the agreements,
· | Excessive time to settle a loan,
· | Investor declines purchase, and
· | Discontinued product and expired commitment.

Loan purchase commitments generally specify a date 30 to 45 days after delivery upon which the underlying loans should be settled. Depending on market conditions, these commitment settlement dates can be extended at a cost to the Company.
It is the Company's policy to cure any documentation problems regarding such loans at a minimal cost for up to a six-month time period and to pursue efforts to enforce loan purchase commitments from third-party investors concerning the loans. The Company believes that six months allows adequate time to remedy any documentation issues, to enforce purchase commitments, and to exhaust other alternatives. Remedial methods include the following:

· | Research reasons for rejection,
· | Provide additional documents,
· | Request investor exceptions,
· | Appeal rejection decision to purchase committee, and
· | Commit to secondary investors.

20

Once purchase commitments have expired and other alternatives to remedy are exhausted, which could be earlier than the six-month time period, the loans are repurchased and transferred to the long-term investment portfolio at the lower of cost or fair value and the previously recorded sales revenue that was to be received from a third party investor is written off against the loan loss reserve. Any loan that later becomes delinquent is evaluated by the Company at that time and any impairment is adjusted accordingly.
Determining lower of cost or market. Cost is equal to the amount paid to the warehouse bank and the amount originally funded by the Company. Market value, while often difficult to determine, is based on the following guidelines:

· | For loans that have an active market, the Company uses the market price on the repurchase date.
· | For loans where there is no market but there is a similar product, the Company uses the market value for the similar product on the repurchase date.
· | For loans where no active market exists on the repurchase date, the Company determines that the unpaid principal balance best approximates the market value on the repurchase date, after considering the fair value of the underlying real estate collateral and estimated future cash flows.

The appraised value of the real estate underlying the original mortgage loan adds significance to the Company's determination of fair value because, if the loan becomes delinquent, the Company has sufficient value to collect the unpaid principal balance or the carrying value of the loan. In determining the market value on the date of repurchase, the Company considers the total value of all of the loans because any sale of loans would be made as a pool.
Loans that have been foreclosed are reclassified as real estate held for investment. The Company carries the foreclosed properties in either Security National Life, Memorial Estates, or SecurityNational Mortgage and rents the properties until it is deemed economically desirable to sell them.
The majority of loans originated are sold to third party investors. The amounts expected to be sold to investors are shown on the balance sheet as loans held for sale, and include the fees due from third party investors.
Use of Significant Accounting Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts and disclosures. It is reasonably possible that actual experience could differ from the estimates and assumptions utilized which could have a material impact on the financial statements. The following is a summary of our significant accounting estimates, and critical issues that impact them:
Loan Commitments
The Company estimates the fair value of a mortgage loan commitment based on the change in estimated fair value of the underlying mortgage loan, quoted MBS prices, estimates of the fair value of mortgage servicing rights, and an estimate of the probability that the mortgage loan will fund within the terms of the commitment net of estimated commission expense. The change in fair value of the underlying mortgage loan is measured from the date the mortgage loan commitment is issued and is shown net of related expenses. Following issuance, the value of a loan commitment can be either positive or negative depending upon the change in value of the underlying mortgage loans. Fallout rates and other factors from the Company's recent historical data are used to estimate the quantity and value of mortgage loans that will fund within the terms of the commitments.
Deferred Acquisition Costs
Amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs for interest sensitive products is dependent upon estimates of current and future gross profits or margins on this business. Key assumptions used include the following: yield on investments supporting the liabilities, amount of interest or dividends credited to the policies, amount of policy fees and charges, amount of expenses necessary to maintain the policies, amount of death and surrender benefits, and the length of time the policies will stay in force.
For nonparticipating traditional life products, these costs are amortized over the premium paying period of the related policies in proportion to the ratio of annual premium revenues to total anticipated premium revenues. Such anticipated premium revenues are estimated using the same assumption used for computing liabilities for future policy benefits and are generally "locked in" at the date the policies are issued.
21

Value of Business Acquired
Value of business acquired is the present value of estimated future profits of the acquired business and is amortized similar to deferred acquisition costs. The critical issues explained for deferred acquisition costs would also apply for value of business acquired.
Mortgage Loans Foreclosed to Real Estate Held for Investment
These properties are recorded at the lower of cost or fair value upon foreclosure. The Company believes that in an orderly market fair value will approximate the replacement cost of a home and the rental income provides a cash flow stream for investment analysis. The Company believes the highest and best use of the properties are as income producing assets since it is the Company's intent to hold the properties as rental properties, matching the income from the investment in rental properties with the funds required for future estimated policy claims. Accordingly, the fair value determination will be weighted more heavily toward the rental analysis.
Future Policy Benefits
Reserves for future policy benefits for traditional life insurance products requires the use of many assumptions, including the duration of the policies, mortality experience, expenses, investment yield, lapse rates, surrender rates, and dividend crediting rates.
These assumptions are made based upon historical experience, industry standards and a best estimate of future results and, for traditional life products, include a provision for adverse deviation. For traditional life insurance, once established for a particular series of products, these assumptions are generally held constant.
Unearned Revenue
The universal life products the Company sells have significant policy initiation fees (front-end load) that are deferred and amortized into revenues over the estimated expected gross profits from surrender charges and investment, mortality and expense margins. The same issues that impact deferred acquisition costs would apply to unearned revenue.
Deferred Pre-need Cemetery and Funeral Contracts Revenues and Estimated Future Cost of Pre-need Sales
The revenue and cost associated with the sales of pre-need cemetery merchandise and funeral services are deferred until the merchandise is delivered or the service is performed.
The Company, through its cemetery and mortuary operations, provides a guaranteed funeral arrangement wherein a prospective customer can receive future goods and services at guaranteed prices. To accomplish this, the Company, through its life insurance operations, sells to the customer an increasing benefit life insurance policy that is assigned to the mortuaries. If, at the time of need, the policyholder or potential mortuary customer utilizes one of the Company's facilities, the guaranteed funeral arrangement contract that has been assigned will provide the funeral goods and services at the contracted price. The increasing life insurance policy will cover the difference between the original contract prices and current prices. Risks may arise if the difference cannot be fully met by the life insurance policy.
Mortgage Servicing Rights
Mortgage Service Rights (MSR) arise from contractual agreements between the Company and third-party investors (or their agents) when mortgage loans are sold. Under these contracts, the Company is obligated to retain and provide loan servicing functions on the loans sold, in exchange for fees and other remuneration. The servicing functions typically performed include, among other responsibilities, collecting and remitting loan payments; responding to borrower inquiries; accounting for principal and interest, holding custodial (impound) funds for payment of property taxes and insurance premiums; counseling delinquent mortgagors; and supervising the acquisition of real estate owned and property dispositions. The Company initially accounts for MSRs at fair value and subsequently accounts for them using the amortization method. MSR amortization is determined by amortizing the balance straight-line over an estimated seven and nine-year life. The Company periodically assesses MSRs accounted for using the amortization method for impairment.
Mortgage Allowance for Loan Loss and Loan Loss Reserve
The Company provides allowances for losses on its mortgage loans through an allowance for loan losses (a contra-asset account) and through the mortgage loan loss reserve (a liability account). The allowance for loan losses is an allowance for losses on the Company's mortgage loans held for investment. The allowance is comprised of two components. The first component is an allowance for collectively evaluated impairment that is based upon the Company's historical experience in collecting similar receivables. The second component is based upon individual evaluation of loans that are determined to be impaired. Upon determining impairment, the Company establishes an individual impairment allowance based upon an assessment of the fair value of the underlying collateral.
22

When a mortgage loan is past due more than 90 days, the Company, where appropriate, sets up an allowance to approximate the excess of the carrying value of the mortgage loan over the estimated fair value of the underlying real estate collateral. When foreclosure is commenced on a delinquent loan, all expenses for foreclosure are expensed as incurred. Once foreclosed the carrying value should approximate its fair value and the amount will be classified as real estate owned. The Company is currently able to rent properties at a 2% to 8% gross return.
The mortgage loan loss reserve is an estimate of probable losses at the balance sheet date that the Company will realize in the future on mortgage loans sold to third party investors. The Company may be required to reimburse third party investors for costs associated with early payoff of loans within the first six months of such loans and to repurchase loans where there is a default in any of the first four monthly payments to the investors or, in lieu of repurchase, to pay a negotiated fee to the investors. The Company's estimates are based upon historical loss experience and the best estimate of the probable loan loss liabilities.
Upon completion of a transfer that satisfies the conditions to be accounted for as a sale, the Company initially measures at fair value liabilities incurred in a sale relating to any guarantee or recourse provisions. The Company accrues a monthly allowance for indemnification losses to investors based on total production. This estimate is based on the Company's historical experience and is included as a component of mortgage fee income. Subsequent updates to the recorded liability from changes in assumptions are recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses. The estimated liability for indemnification losses is included in other liabilities and accrued expenses. The Company believes the allowance for loan losses and the loan loss reserve represent probable loan losses incurred as of the balance sheet date.
Deferred Tax Assets and Liabilities
Deferred tax assets and liabilities require various estimates and judgments and may be affected favorably or unfavorably by various internal and external factors. These estimates and judgments occur in the calculation of certain deferred tax assets and liabilities that arise from temporary differences in the recognition of revenues and expenses for tax and financial reporting purposes and in estimating the ultimate amount of deferred tax assets recoverable in future periods. Factors affecting the deferred tax assets and liabilities include, but are not limited to, changes in tax laws, regulations and/or rates, changing interpretations of existing tax laws or regulations, and changes to overall levels of pre-tax earnings. Changes in these estimates, judgments or factors may result in an increase or decrease to the Company's deferred tax assets and liabilities with a related increase or decrease in the Company's provision for income taxes.
Results of Consolidated Operations
2016 Compared to 2015
Total revenues increased by $23,980,000, or 8.6%, to $304,335,000 for fiscal year 2016 from $280,355,000 for the fiscal year 2015. Contributing to this increase in total revenues was a $12,026,000 increase in mortgage fee income, an $8,091,000 increase in insurance premiums and other considerations, a $3,574,000 increase in net investment income, a $1,766,000 increase in other revenues, a $765,000 increase in net cemetery and mortuary sales, and a $335,000 decrease in other than temporary impairments. This increase in total revenues was partially offset by a $2,577,000 decrease in realized gains on investments and other assets.
Insurance premiums and other considerations increased by $8,091,000, or 14.3%, to $64,501,000 for 2016, from $56,410,000 for the comparable period in 2015. This increase was due to an increase in renewal premiums and an increase in first year premiums as a result of increased insurance sales in 2016.
Net investment income increased by $3,574,000, or 10.5%, to $37,582,000 for 2016, from $34,008,000 for the comparable period in 2015. This increase was primarily attributable to a $2,961,000 increase in insurance assignment income, a $1,515,000 increase in income from real estate held for investment, a $1,267,000 increase in interest from mortgage loans, an $804,000 increase in fixed maturity securities income and a $31,000 increase in policy loans income. This increase was partially offset by a $2,610,000 decrease in income from short-term investments and a $406,000 increase in investment expenses.
23

Net cemetery and mortuary sales increased by $765,000, or 6.7%, to $12,267,000 for 2016, from $11,502,000 for the comparable period in 2015. This increase was primarily due to an increase in at-need sales and pre-need sales in both the cemetery and mortuary operations.
Realized gains on investments and other assets decreased by $2,577,000, or 107.3%, to $176,000 in realized losses for 2016, from $2,401,000 in realized gains for the comparable period in 2015. This decrease in realized gains on investments and other assets was primarily attributable to a $2,577,000 decrease in realized gains on other assets due to the sale of an office building in 2015, which was offset by an increase in impairments on real estate held for investment in 2016, and a $47,000 decrease in realized gains on fixed maturity securities. This decrease was also partially offset by a $47,000 increase in realized gains on securities available for sale.
Other than temporary impairments on investments decreased by $335,000, or 55.3%, to $270,000 for 2016 from $605,000 for the comparable period in 2015. This decrease was primarily attributable to an overall decrease in impairments on fixed maturity securities held to maturity and securities available for sale.
Mortgage fee income increased by $12,026,000, or 7.0%, to $183,543,000 for 2016, from $171,517,000 for the comparable period in 2015. This increase was primarily attributable to an increase in mortgage loan originations.
Other revenues increased by $1,766,000, or 34.5%, to $6,888,000 for 2016 from $5,122,000 for the comparable period in 2015. This increase was due to an increase in mortgage servicing revenues.
Total benefits and expenses were $284,632,000, or 93.4% of total revenues, for 2016, as compared to $259,341,000, or 92.5% of total revenues, for the comparable period in 2015.
Death benefits, surrenders and other policy benefits, and future policy benefits increased by an aggregate of $4,102,000, or 8.1%, to $54,710,000 for 2016, from $50,608,000 for the comparable period in 2015. This increase was primarily the result of a $4,264,000 increase in future policy benefits, which was partially offset by a $125,000 decrease in death benefits and a $37,000 decrease in surrenders and other policy benefits.
Amortization of deferred policy and pre-need acquisition costs and value of business acquired increased by $2,362,000, or 41.9%, to $8,003,000 for 2016, from $5,641,000 for the comparable period in 2015. This increase was primarily due to an increase in insurance sales expenses.
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $18,190,000, or 9.2%, to $215,020,000 for 2016, from $196,830,000 for the comparable period in 2015. This increase was primarily due to a $9,394,000 increase in personnel expenses resulting from increased salaries for existing employees and the hiring of new employees, a $7,734,000 increase in commission expenses, a $1,616,000 increase in other expenses, a $695,000 increase in advertising expenses, a $290,000 increase in costs related to funding mortgage loans, and a $210,000 increase in rent and rent related expenses. These increases were partially offset by a $1,749,000 decrease in the provision for loan losses.
Interest expense increased by $654,000, or 14.7%, to $5,112,000 for 2016, from $4,458,000 for the comparable period in 2015. This increase in interest expense was primarily due to the completion of the construction of the Dry Creek at East Village Apartments development in December 2015, resulting in the interest from the bank loan that had been capitalized during the construction phase of the project being expensed in 2016.
Cost of goods and services sold of the cemeteries and mortuaries decreased by $16,000, or 0.9%, to $1,787,000 for 2016, from $1,803,000 for the comparable period in 2015. This decrease was primarily due to a decrease in mortuary at-need sales, which was offset by an increase in cemetery pre-need sales.
Other comprehensive income for the years ended December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 amounted to a gain of $764,000 and a loss of $761,000, respectively. This increase of $1,525,000 in 2016 was primarily the result of a $1,529,000 unrealized gain in marketable securities.
2015 Compared to 2014
Total revenues increased by $55,308,000, or 24.6%, to $280,355,000 for fiscal year 2015 from $225,047,000 for the fiscal year 2014. Contributing to this increase in total revenues was a $44,710,000 increase in mortgage fee income, a $5,704,000 increase in net investment income, a $3,401,000 increase in insurance premiums and other considerations, a $1,375,000 increase in other revenues, a $483,000 increase in realized gains on investments and other assets, and a $76,000 increase in net cemetery and mortuary sales. This increase in total revenues was partially offset by a $441,000 increase in other than temporary impairments.
24

Insurance premiums and other considerations increased by $3,401,000, or 6.4%, to $56,410,000 for 2015, from $53,009,000 for the comparable period in 2014. This increase was due to an increase in renewal premiums and an increase in first year premiums as a result of increased insurance sales in 2015.
Net investment income increased by $5,704,000, or 20.2%, to $34,008,000 for 2015, from $28,304,000 for the comparable period in 2014. This increase was primarily attributable to a $4,119,000 increase in income from short-term investments, a $1,021,000 increase in income from real estate, a $414,000 decrease in investment expenses, a $146,000 increase in interest from mortgage loans, a $57,000 increase in equity securities income, and an $8,000 increase in policy loans income. This increase was partially offset by a $61,000 decrease in fixed maturity securities income.
Net cemetery and mortuary sales increased by $76,000, or 0.7%, to $11,502,000 for 2015, from $11,426,000 for the comparable period in 2014. This increase was primarily due to a $249,000 increase in cemetery pre-need and at-need sales. This increase was partially offset by a $173,000 decrease in mortuary at-need sales.
Realized gains on investments and other assets increased by $483,000, or 25.2%, to $2,401,000 in realized gains for 2015, from $1,918,000 in realized gains for the comparable period in 2014. This increase in realized gains and losses on investments and other assets was primarily due to a $677,000 increase in gains and losses on other assets. This increase was partially offset by a $180,000 decrease in gains and losses on marketable securities, and a $14,000 decrease in gains and losses on fixed maturity securities held to maturity.
Other than temporary impairments on investments increased by $441,000, or 268.6%, to $605,000 for 2015 from $164,000 for the comparable period in 2014. This increase was due to a $192,000 increase in impairments on real estate held for investment and mortgage loans, and a $249,000 increase in impairments on marketable securities.
Mortgage fee income increased by $44,710,000, or 35.3%, to $171,517,000 for 2015, from $126,807,000 for the comparable period in 2014. This increase was primarily attributable to an increase in mortgage loan originations and higher secondary gains from loans held for sale.
Other revenues increased by $1,375,000, or 36.7%, to $5,122,000 for 2015 from $3,747,000 for the comparable period in 2014. This increase was due to an increase in mortgage servicing revenues.
Total benefits and expenses were $259,341,000, or 92.5% of total revenues, for 2015, as compared to $211,320,000, or 93.9% of total revenues, for the comparable period in 2014.
Death benefits, surrenders and other policy benefits, and future policy benefits increased by an aggregate of $2,912,000, or 6.1%, to $50,608,000 for 2015, from $47,696,000 for the comparable period in 2014. This increase was primarily the result of an increase of $4,058,000 in death benefits, which was partially offset by decreases of $848,000 in future policy benefits, and $298,000 in surrenders and other policy benefits.
Amortization of deferred policy and pre-need acquisition costs and value of business acquired decreased by $1,252,000, or 18.2%, to $5,641,000 for 2015, from $6,893,000 for the comparable period in 2014. This decrease was primarily due to improved persistency in the payment of premiums in the traditional life business.
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $44,946,000, or 29.6%, to $196,830,000 for 2015, from $151,884,000 for the comparable period in 2014. This increase was primarily due to a $21,526,000 increase in commission expenses, an $11,500,000 increase in personnel expenses, a $4,154,000 increase in other expenses, a $2,449,000 increase in the provision for loan losses, a $2,450,000 increase in costs related to funding mortgage loans, a $1,715,000 increase in rent and rent related expenses, and a $1,146,000 increase in advertising expenses. These increased expenses in 2015 were primarily due to the additional costs and expenses associated with the Company's significant increases in the number of mortgage loan originations in 2015.
Interest expense increased by $1,464,000, or 48.9%, to $4,458,000 for 2015, from $2,994,000 for the comparable period in 2014. This increase was primarily due to an increase in outstanding balances on warehouse lines of credit that are used to fund mortgage loans.
Cost of goods and services sold of the cemeteries and mortuaries decreased by $50,000, or 2.7%, to $1,803,000 for 2015, from $1,853,000 for the comparable period in 2014. This decrease was primarily due to a decrease in mortuary at-need sales, which was offset by an increase in cemetery pre-need and at-need sales.
Other comprehensive income for the years ended December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 amounted to losses of $761,000 and $49,000, respectively. This decrease of $712,000 in 2015 was primarily the result of a $705,000 unrealized loss in marketable securities.

Risks
The following is a description of the most significant risks facing the Company and how it mitigates those risks:
Legal and Regulatory Risks. Changes in the legal or regulatory environment in which the Company operates may create additional expenses and risks not anticipated by the Company in developing and pricing its products. Regulatory initiatives designed to reduce insurer profits, new legal theories or insurance company insolvencies through guaranty fund assessments may create costs for the insurer beyond those recorded in the consolidated financial statements. In addition, changes in tax law with respect to mortgage interest deductions or other public policy or legislative changes may affect the Company's mortgage sales. Also, the Company may be subject to further regulations in the cemetery and mortuary business. The Company mitigates these risks by offering a wide range of products and by diversifying its operations, thus reducing its exposure to any single product or jurisdiction, and also by employing underwriting practices that identify and minimize the adverse impact of such risks.
Mortgage Industry Risks. Developments in the mortgage industry and credit markets can adversely affect the Company's ability to sell its mortgage loans to investors, which can impact the Company's financial results by requiring it to assume the risk of holding and servicing any unsold loans.
The mortgage loan loss reserve is an estimate of probable losses at the balance sheet date that the Company could realize in the future on mortgage loans sold to third party investors. The Company's mortgage subsidiaries may be required to reimburse third party investors for costs associated with early payoff of loans within the first six months of such loans and to repurchase loans where there is a default in any of the first four monthly payments to the investors or, in lieu of repurchase, to pay a negotiated fee to the investors. The Company's estimates are based upon historical loss experience and the best estimate of the probable loan loss liabilities.
Upon completion of a transfer that satisfies the conditions to be accounted for as a sale, the Company initially measures at fair value liabilities incurred in a sale relating to any guarantee or recourse provisions. The initial allowance for loan losses in years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014 were $2,989,000, $2,846,000 and $2,053,000, respectively, and the charge has been included in mortgage fee income. Additional amounts accrued for changes in estimates specific to settlements for loan losses in years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014 were $1,700,000, $3,449,103 and $1,000,000, respectively, and the charge has been included in selling, general and administrative expenses. The estimated liability for indemnification losses is included in other liabilities and accrued expenses and, as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, the balances were $628,000 and $2,806,000, respectively. The Company believes the allowance for loan losses and the loan loss reserve represent probable loan losses incurred as of December 31, 2016. There is a risk, however, that future loan losses may exceed the loan loss reserves and allowances.
As of December 31, 2016, the Company's long term mortgage loan portfolio consisted of $3,184,000 in mortgage loans with delinquencies more than 90 days. Of this amount, $1,829,000 of the loans were in foreclosure proceedings. The Company has not received or recognized any interest income on the $3,184,000 in mortgage loans with delinquencies more than 90 days. During the twelve months ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, the Company decreased its allowance for mortgage losses by $99,000 and $31,000, respectively, which was charged to bad debt expense and included in selling, general and administrative expenses for the period. The allowances for mortgage loan losses as of December 31, 2016 and 2015 were $1,749,000 and $1,848,000, respectively.
At various times third party investors have asserted that SecurityNational Mortgage sold mortgage loans that allegedly contained borrower misrepresentations or experienced early payment defaults, or that were otherwise allegedly defective or not in compliance with loan purchase agreements involving SecurityNational Mortgage. As a result of these claims, third party investors have made demands at times that SecurityNational Mortgage repurchase certain alleged defective mortgage loans that were sold to such investors or indemnify them against any losses related to such loans.
The total amount of potential claims by third party investors is difficult to determine. The Company has reserved and accrued $628,000 as of December 31, 2016 to settle all such investor related claims. The Company believes that the reserve for mortgage loan losses, which includes provisions for probable losses and indemnification on loans held for sale, is reasonable based on available information. Moreover, the Company has successfully negotiated acceptable settlement terms with other third-party investors that asserted claims for mortgage loan losses against SecurityNational Mortgage.
26

SecurityNational Mortgage disagrees with the repurchase demands and notices of potential claims from third party investors. Furthermore, SecurityNational Mortgage believes there is potential to resolve the alleged claims by the third-party investors on acceptable terms. If SecurityNational Mortgage is unable to resolve such claims on acceptable terms, legal action may ensue. In the event of legal action by any third-party investor, SecurityNational Mortgage believes it has significant defenses to any such action and intends to vigorously defend itself against such action.
Interest Rate Risk. The risk that interest rates will change which may cause a decrease in the value of the Company's investments or impair the ability of the Company to market its mortgage and cemetery/mortuary products. This change in rates may cause certain interest-sensitive products to become uncompetitive or may cause disintermediation. The Company mitigates this risk by charging fees for non-conformance with certain policy provisions, by offering products that transfer this risk to the purchaser, and by attempting to match the maturity schedule of its assets with the expected payouts of its liabilities. To the extent that liabilities come due more quickly than assets mature, the Company might have to borrow funds or sell assets prior to maturity and potentially recognize a loss on the sale.
Mortality and Morbidity Risks. The risk that the Company's actuarial assumptions may differ from actual mortality and morbidity experiences may cause the Company's products to be underpriced, may cause the Company to liquidate insurance or other claims earlier than anticipated, and other potentially adverse consequences to the business. The Company minimizes this risk through sound underwriting practices, asset and liability duration matching, and sound actuarial practices.
Estimates. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant changes in the near term are those used in determining the value of derivative assets and liabilities, those used in determining deferred acquisition costs and the value of business acquired, those used in determining the value of mortgage loans foreclosed to real estate held for investment, those used in determining the liability for future policy benefits and unearned revenue, those used in determining the estimated future costs for pre-need sales, those used in determining the value of mortgage servicing rights, those used in determining allowances for loan losses for mortgage loans on real estate, those used in determining loan loss reserve, and those used in determining deferred tax assets and liabilities. Although some variability is inherent in these estimates, management believes the amounts provided are fairly stated in all material respects.
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 subsidiaries realize 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 related to the issuance of new policies, the maintenance of existing policies, debt service, and to meet current operating expenses.
During the twelve months ended December 31, 2016, the Company's operations provided cash of $35,535,000. This was primarily due to an increase in cash collected on loans held for sale. During the twelve months ended December 31, 2015, the Company's operations used cash of $28,113,000. This was primarily due to an increase in cash paid on loans held for sale.
The Company's liability for future life, annuity and other benefits is expected to be paid out over the long-term due to the Company's market niche of selling funeral plans. Funeral plans are small face value life insurance that will pay the costs and expenses incurred at the time of a person's death. A person generally will keep these policies in force and will not surrender them prior to a person's death. Because of the long-term nature of these liabilities, the Company is able to hold to maturity its bonds, real estate and mortgage loans thus reducing the risk of liquidating these long-term investments as a result of any sudden changes in market values.
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. 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.
27

The Company's investment policy is also to invest predominantly in fixed maturity securities, real estate, mortgage loans, and 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 insurance subsidiaries amounted to $184,356,000 and $144,946,000 as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. This represents 33.1% and 32.9% of the total investments as of December 31, 2016, and 2015, 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 six categories used for rating bonds. At December 31, 2016, 9.0% (or $16,513,000) and at December 31, 2015, 8.3% (or $11,990,000) of the Company's total bond investments 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. In accordance with Company policy, however, any such securities purchased in the future will be classified as held to maturity. Notwithstanding, business conditions 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.
See Note 2 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for the schedule of the maturity of fixed maturity securities and for the schedule of principal payments for mortgage loans on real estate and construction loans held for investment.
If market conditions were to cause interest rates to change, the market value of the Company's fixed income portfolio, which includes bonds, preferred stock, and mortgage loans, could change by the following amounts based on the respective basis point swing (the change in the market values were calculated using a modeling technique):

| -200 bps |  |  | -100 bps |  |  | +100 bps |  |  | +200 bps |
Change in Market Value (in thousands) |  | $ | 28,572 |  |  | $ | 13,491 |  |  | $ | (17,119 | ) |  | $ | (30,069 | )

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 December 31, 2016 and 2015, the life insurance subsidiaries exceeded the regulatory criteria.
The Company's total capitalization of stockholders' equity, and bank loans and notes payable were $284,700,000 as of December 31, 2016, as compared to $248,722,000 as of December 31, 2015. Stockholders' equity as a percent of total capitalization was 46.6% and 47.3% as of December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively. Bank loans and notes payable increased by $12,810,000 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2016 as compared to December 31, 2015, thus decreasing the stockholders' equity percentage.
Lapse rates measure the amount of insurance terminated during a particular period. The Company's lapse rate for life insurance was 9.6% in 2016 as compared to a rate of 7.4% for 2015.
At December 31, 2016, $44,055,000 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 state insurance regulatory authorities.
Forward-Looking Statements
The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a safe harbor for forward-looking statements to encourage companies to provide prospective information about their businesses without fear of litigation so long as those statements are identified as forward-looking and are accompanied by meaningful cautionary statements identifying important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in such statements. The Company desires to take advantage of the "safe harbor" provisions of the act.
This Annual Report on Form 10-K/A contains forward-looking statements, together with related data and projections, about the Company's projected financial results and its future plans and strategies. However, actual results and needs of the Company may vary materially from forward-looking statements and projections made from time to time by the Company on the basis of management's then-current expectations. The business in which the Company is engaged involves changing and competitive markets, which may involve a high degree of risk, and there can be no assurance that forward-looking statements and projections will prove accurate.
28

Factors that may cause the Company's actual results to differ materially from those contemplated or projected, forecast, estimated or budgeted in such forward looking statements include among others, the following possibilities: (i) heightened competition, including the intensification of price competition, the entry of new competitors, and the introduction of new products by new and existing competitors; (ii) adverse state and federal legislation or regulation, including decreases in rates, limitations on premium levels, increases in minimum capital and reserve requirements, benefit mandates and tax treatment of insurance products; (iii) fluctuations in interest rates causing a reduction of investment income or increase in interest expense and in the market value of interest rate sensitive investment; (iv) failure to obtain new customers, retain existing customers or reductions in policies in force by existing customers; (v) higher service, administrative, or general expense due to the need for additional advertising, marketing, administrative or management information systems expenditures; (vi) loss or retirement of key executives or employees; (vii) increases in medical costs; (viii) changes in the Company's liquidity due to changes in asset and liability matching; (ix) restrictions on insurance underwriting based on genetic testing and other criteria; (x) adverse changes in the ratings obtained by independent rating agencies; (xi) failure to maintain adequate reinsurance; (xii) possible claims relating to sales practices for insurance products and claim denials and (xiii) adverse trends in mortality and morbidity; (xiv) deterioration of real estate markets and (xv) lawsuits in the ordinary course of business.
Off-Balance Sheet Agreements
At December 31, 2016, the Company was contingently liable under a standby letter of credit aggregating $560,350, to be used as collateral to cover any contingency related to additional risk assessments pertaining to the Company's captive insurance program. The Company does not expect any material losses to result from the issuance of the standby letter of credit because claims are not expected to exceed premiums paid. Accordingly, the estimated fair value of this letter of credit is zero.
At December 31, 2016, the Company was contingently liable under standby letters of credit aggregating $1,250,000, to be used as collateral to cover any contingency related to claims filed in states where the Company's mortgage segment is licensed. The Company does not expect any material losses to result from the issuance of these standby letters of credit. Accordingly, the estimated fair value of these letters of credit is zero.
At December 31, 2016, the Company was contingently liable under a standby letter of credit aggregating $48,220, issued as a security deposit to guarantee payment of final bills for electric and gas utility services for a commercial real estate property owned by the Company in Wichita, Kansas. The Company does not expect any material losses to result from the issuance of the standby letter of credit. Accordingly, the estimated fair value of this letter of credit is zero.
The total of the Company's unfunded residential construction loan and land development loan commitments as of December 31, 2016, was $15,622,000.
The Company entered into a Construction Loan Agreement between Key Bank National Association and 5300 Development LLC, the Company's wholly owned subsidiary. Under the terms of this Agreement, the Company agrees to pay Key Bank the current outstanding principal up to $40,740,000 plus interest. These funds are being used for the construction of phase 1 of the Company's new corporate campus development in Salt Lake City Utah. As of December 31, 2016, the Company has used $8,778,000 of these funds.
29

Contractual Obligations
The Company's contractual obligations as of December 31, 2016, and the payments due by period are shown in the following table:

|  | Less than 1 year |  |  | 1-3 years |  |  | 4-5 years |  |  | over 5 years |  |  | Total |
Non-cancelable operating leases |  | $ | 6,556,093 |  |  | $ | 7,857,212 |  |  | $ | 534,151 |  |  | $ | 37,438 |  |  | $ | 14,984,894 |
Bank and other loans payable |  |  | 101,177,574 |  |  |  | 37,668,543 |  |  |  | 4,502,845 |  |  |  | 8,791,717 |  |  |  | 152,140,679 |

Casualty Insurance Program
In conjunction with the Company's casualty insurance program, limited equity interests are held in a captive insurance entity. This program permits the Company to self-insure a portion of losses, to gain access to a wide array of safety-related services, to pool insurance risks and resources in order to obtain more competitive pricing for administration and reinsurance and to limit its risk of loss in any particular year. The maximum exposure to loss related to the Company's involvement with this entity is limited to approximately $560,350 which is collateralized under a standby letter of credit issued on the insurance entity's behalf. See Note 9, "Reinsurance, Commitments and Contingencies," for additional discussion of commitments associated with the insurance program and Note 1, "Significant Accounting Policies", for further information on a standby letter of credit.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and the Shareholders
Security National Financial Corporation
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Security National Financial Corporation and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, and the related consolidated statements of earnings, comprehensive income, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2016. Our audits also included the financial statements Schedule II, Schedule IV and Schedule V. The Company's management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements and schedules. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements and schedules based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Security National Financial Corporation and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, and the consolidated results of their earnings and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2016 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
As discussed in Note 21, subsequent to the issuance of the Company's financial statements as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, and for the three-year period ended December 31, 2016, and our report thereon dated March 31, 2017, we became aware that those financial statements contained errors related to purchase agreements for mortgage loans and the tax valuation allowance, as well as related disclosures and a number of other matters. In our original report we expressed an unmodified opinion on these financial statements, and our opinion on the revised statements, as expressed herein, remains unmodified.

1) Significant Accounting Policies
General Overview of Business
Security National Financial Corporation and its wholly owned subsidiaries (the "Company") operate in three main business segments: life insurance, cemetery and mortuary, and mortgages. The life insurance segment is engaged in the business of selling and servicing selected lines of life insurance, annuity products and accident and health insurance marketed primarily in the intermountain west, California and eleven southern states. The cemetery and mortuary segment of the Company consists of eight mortuaries and five cemeteries in Utah and one cemetery in California. The mortgage segment is an approved government and conventional lender that originates and underwrites residential and commercial loans for new construction, existing homes and real estate projects primarily in Florida, Nevada, Texas, and Utah.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). The presentation of certain amounts in prior years has been reclassified to conform to the 2016 presentation.
Principles of Consolidation
These consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and its majority owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates
Management of the Company has made a number of estimates and assumptions related to the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, reported amounts of revenues and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities to prepare these financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant changes in the near term are those used in determining the value of derivative assets and liabilities, those used in determining deferred acquisition costs and the value of business acquired, those used in determining the value of mortgage loans foreclosed to real estate held for investment, those used in determining the liability for future policy benefits and unearned revenue, those used in determining the estimated future costs for pre-need sales, those used in determining the value of mortgage servicing rights, those used in determining allowances for loan losses for mortgage loans on real estate, those used in determining loan loss reserve, and those used in determining deferred tax assets and liabilities. Although some variability is inherent in these estimates, management believes the amounts provided are fairly stated in all material respects.
Investments
The Company's management determines the appropriate classifications of investments in fixed maturity securities and equity securities at the acquisition date and re-evaluates the classifications at each balance sheet date.
Fixed maturity securities held to maturity are carried at cost, adjusted for amortization of premium or accretion of discount. Although the Company has the ability and intent to hold these investments to maturity, infrequent and unusual conditions could occur under which it would sell certain of these securities. Those conditions include unforeseen changes in asset quality, significant changes in tax laws, and changes in regulatory capital requirements or permissible investments.
Equity securities available for sale are carried at estimated fair value. Changes in fair values net of income taxes are reported as unrealized appreciation or depreciation and recorded as an adjustment directly to stockholders' equity and, accordingly, have no effect on net income.
Mortgage loans on real estate and construction loans held for investment are carried at their unpaid principal balances adjusted for charge-offs and the related allowance for loan losses. The Company defers related material loan origination fees, net of related direct loan origination costs, and amortizes the net fees over the term of the loans.

1) Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
Mortgage loans are collateral dependent and require an appraisal at the time of underwriting and funding. Generally, the Company will fund a loan not to exceed 80% of the loan's collateral fair market value. Amounts over 80% will require additional collateral or mortgage insurance by an approved third-party insurer. Once a loan is deemed to be impaired the Company will review the market value of the collateral and provide an allowance for any impairment.
Real estate held for investment is carried at cost, less accumulated depreciation provided on a straight‑line basis over the estimated useful lives of the properties, or is adjusted to a new basis for impairment in value, if any. Included are foreclosed properties which the Company intends to hold for investment purposes. These properties are recorded at the lower of cost or fair value upon foreclosure.
Policy loans and other investments are carried at the aggregate unpaid balances, less allowances for possible losses.
Short-term investments are carried at cost and consist of certificates of deposit and commercial paper with maturities of up to one year.
Realized gains and losses on investments arise when investments are sold (as determined on a specific identification basis) or are other-than-temporarily impaired. If in management's judgment a decline in the value of an investment below cost is other-than-temporary, the cost of the investment is written down to fair value with a corresponding charge to earnings. Factors considered in judging whether an impairment is other-than-temporary include: the financial condition, business prospects and credit worthiness of the issuer, the length of time that fair value has been less than cost, the relative amount of the decline, and the Company's ability and intent to hold the investment until the fair value recovers, which is not assured.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts, which at times exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risk on cash and cash equivalents.
Loans Held for Sale
Loans held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or market and include the amounts due from third party investors. Loans held for sale are also shown net of direct selling revenues and costs. Based on the short-term nature of these assets, the Company has no related allowance for loan losses recorded for these assets.
Restricted Assets
Restricted assets are assets held in a trust account for future mortuary services and merchandise and consist of cash; participations in mortgage loans with Security National Life; mutual funds carried at cost; equity securities carried at fair market value; and a surplus note with Security National Life. Restricted cash also represents escrows held for borrowers and investors under servicing and appraisal agreements relating to mortgage loans, funds held by warehouse banks in accordance with loan purchase agreements and funds held in escrow for certain real estate construction development projects. Additionally, the Company elected to fund its medical benefit safe-harbor limit based on 35 percent of the qualified direct costs for the preceding year, and has included this amount as a component of restricted cash.
Cemetery Perpetual Care Trust Investments
Cemetery endowment care trusts have been set up for four of the six cemeteries owned by the Company. Of the six cemeteries owned by the Company, four cemeteries are endowment care properties. Under endowment care arrangements a portion of the price for each lot sold is withheld and invested in a portfolio of investments similar to those described in the prior paragraph. The earnings stream from the investments is designed to fund future maintenance and upkeep of the cemetery.

1) Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
Cemetery Land and Improvements
The development of a cemetery involves not only the initial acquisition of raw land but the installation of roads, water lines, landscaping and other costs to establish a marketable cemetery lot. The costs of developing the cemetery are shown as an asset on the balance sheet. The amount on the balance sheet is reduced by the total cost assigned to the development of a particular lot when the criterion for recognizing a sale of that lot is met.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is calculated principally on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets which range from three to forty years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the lesser of the useful life or remaining lease terms.
Recognition of Insurance Premiums and Other Considerations
Premiums and other consideration for traditional life insurance products (which include those products with fixed and guaranteed premiums and benefits and consist principally of whole life insurance policies, limited payment life insurance policies, and certain annuities with life contingencies) are recognized as revenues when due from policyholders. Premiums and other consideration for interest-sensitive insurance policies (which include universal life policies, interest-sensitive life policies, deferred annuities, and annuities without life contingencies) are recognized when earned and consist of amounts assessed against policyholder account balances during the period for policy administration charges and surrender charges.
Deferred Policy Acquisition Costs and Value of Business Acquired
Commissions and other costs, net of commission and expense allowances for reinsurance ceded, that vary with and are primarily related to the production of new insurance business have been deferred. Deferred policy acquisition costs ("DAC") for traditional life insurance are amortized over the premium paying period of the related policies using assumptions consistent with those used in computing policy benefit reserves. For interest-sensitive insurance products, deferred policy acquisition costs are amortized generally in proportion to the present value of expected gross profits from surrender charges, investment, mortality and expense margins. This amortization is adjusted when estimates of current or future gross profits to be realized from a group of products are reevaluated. Deferred acquisition costs are written off when policies lapse or are surrendered.
The Company follows accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America when accounting for DAC on internal replacements of insurance and investment contracts. An internal replacement is a modification in product benefits, features, rights or coverage that occurs by the exchange of a contract for a new contract, or by amendment, endorsement, or rider to contract, or by the election of a feature or coverage within a contract. Modifications that result in a replacement contract that is substantially changed from the replaced contract are accounted for as an extinguishment of the replaced contract. Unamortized DAC, unearned revenue liabilities and deferred sales inducements from the replaced contract are written-off. Modifications that result in a contract that is substantially unchanged from the replaced contract are accounted for as a continuation of the replaced contract.
Value of business acquired is the present value of estimated future profits of the acquired business and is amortized similar to deferred policy acquisition costs.
Mortgage Servicing Rights
Mortgage Service Rights (MSR) arise from contractual agreements between the Company and third-party investors (or their agents) when mortgage loans are sold. Under these contracts, the Company is obligated to retain and provide loan servicing functions on loans sold, in exchange for fees and other remuneration. The servicing functions typically performed include, among other responsibilities, collecting and remitting loan payments; responding to borrower inquiries; accounting for principal and interest, holding custodial (impound) funds for payment of property taxes and insurance premiums; counseling delinquent mortgagors; and supervising the acquisition of real estate owned and property dispositions.

1) Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
The total residential mortgage loans serviced for others consist primarily of agency conforming fixed-rate mortgage loans. The value of MSRs is derived from the net cash flows associated with the servicing contracts. The Company receives a servicing fee of generally about 0.250% annually on the remaining outstanding principal balances of the loans. Based on the result of the cash flow analysis, an asset or liability is recorded for mortgage servicing rights. The servicing fees are collected from the monthly payments made by the mortgagors. The Company generally receives other remuneration including rights to various mortgagor-contracted fees such as late charges, and collateral reconveyance charges and the Company is generally entitled to retain the interest earned on funds held pending remittance of mortgagor principal, interest, tax and insurance payments. Contractual servicing fees and late fees are included in other revenues on the Consolidated Statements of Earnings.
The Company's subsequent accounting for MSRs is based on the class of MSRs. The Company has identified two classes of MSRs: MSRs backed by mortgage loans with initial term of 30 years and MSRs backed by mortgage loans with initial term of 15 years. The Company distinguishes between these classes of MSRs due to their differing sensitivities to change in value as the result of changes in market. After being initially recorded at fair value, MSRs backed by mortgage loans are accounted for using the amortization method and netted against loan servicing income. MSR amortization is determined by amortizing the balance straight-line over an estimated seven and nine-year life which estimates the proportion to, and over the period of the estimated future net servicing income of the underlying financial assets.
Interest rate risk, prepayment risk, and default risk are inherent risks in MSR valuation. Interest rate changes largely drive prepayment rates. Refinance activity generally increases as rates decline. A significant decrease in rates beyond expectation could cause a decline in the value of the MSR. On the contrary, if rates increase borrowers are less likely to refinance or prepay their mortgage, which extends the duration of the loan and MSR values are likely to rise. Because of these risks, discount rates and prepayment speeds are used to estimate the fair value.
The Company periodically assesses MSRs for impairment. Impairment occurs when the current fair value of the MSR falls below the asset's carrying value (carrying value is the amortized cost reduced by any related valuation allowance). If MSRs are impaired, the impairment is recognized in current-period earnings and the carrying value of the MSRs is adjusted through a valuation allowance.
Management periodically reviews the various loan strata to determine whether the value of the MSRs in a given stratum is impaired and likely to recover. When management deems recovery of the value to be unlikely in the foreseeable future, a write-down of the cost of the MSRs for that stratum to its estimated recoverable value is charged to the valuation allowance.
Derivative Instruments
Mortgage Banking Derivatives
Loan Commitments
The Company is exposed to price risk due to the potential impact of changes in interest rates on the values of loan commitments from the time a 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 loan commitments that will be exercised (i.e., the number of loans that will be funded) fluctuates. The probability that a loan will not be funded or the loan application is denied or withdrawn within the terms of the commitment is driven by a number of factors, particularly the change, if any, in mortgage rates following the issuance of the loan commitment.
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 mortgage loan commitment 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 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 the Company expects to be funded within the terms of the loan commitments and are updated periodically to reflect the most current data.

1) Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
The Company estimates the fair value of a loan commitment based on the change in estimated fair value of the underlying mortgage loan, quoted MBS prices, estimates of the fair value of mortgage servicing rights, and an estimate of the probability that the mortgage loan will fund within the terms of the commitment net of estimated commission expense. The change in fair value of the underlying mortgage loan is measured from the date the loan commitment is issued and is shown net of expenses. Following issuance, the value of a loan commitment can be either positive or negative depending upon the change in value of the underlying mortgage loans.
Forward Sale Commitments
The Company utilizes forward commitments to economically hedge the price risk associated with its outstanding mortgage loan commitments. A forward commitment protects the Company from losses on sales of the loans arising from exercise of the loan commitments. Management expects these types of commitments will experience changes in fair value opposite to changes in fair value of the loan commitments, thereby reducing earnings volatility related to the recognition in earnings of changes in the values of the commitments.
The net changes in fair value of all loan commitments and forward sale commitments are shown in current earnings as a component of mortgage fee income.
Call and Put Options
The Company uses a strategy of selling "out of the money" call options on its available for sale equity securities as a source of revenue. The options give the purchaser the right to buy from the Company specified equity securities at a set price up to a pre-determined date in the future. The Company uses the strategy of selling put options as a means of generating cash or purchasing equity securities at lower than current market prices. The Company receives an immediate payment of cash for the value of the option and establishes a liability for the fair value of the option. The liability for options is adjusted to fair value at each reporting date. In the event an option is exercised, the Company recognizes a gain on the sale of the equity security and a gain on the sale of the option. If the option expires unexercised, the Company recognizes a gain from the sale of the option.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts and Loan Losses and Impaired Loans
The Company records an allowance and recognizes an expense for potential losses from mortgage loans, other loans and receivables in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
Receivables are the result of cemetery and mortuary operations, mortgage loan operations and life insurance operations. The allowance is based upon the Company's historical experience for collectively evaluated impairment. Other allowances are based upon receivables individually evaluated for impairment. Collectability of the cemetery and mortuary receivables is significantly influenced by current economic conditions. The critical issues that impact recovery of mortgage loan operations are interest rate risk, loan underwriting, new regulations and the overall economy.
The Company provides allowances for losses on its mortgage loans held for investment through an allowance for loan losses. The allowance is comprised of two components. The first component is an allowance for collectively evaluated impairment that is based upon the Company's historical experience in collecting similar receivables. The second component is based upon individual evaluation of loans that are determined to be impaired. Upon determining impairment, the Company establishes an individual impairment allowance based upon an assessment of the fair value of the underlying collateral. See the schedules in Note 2 for additional information. In addition, when a mortgage loan is past due more than 90 days, the Company does not accrue any interest income. When a loan becomes delinquent, the Company proceeds to foreclose on the real estate and all expenses for foreclosure are expensed as incurred. Once foreclosed, an adjustment for the lower of cost or fair value is made, if necessary, and the amount is classified as real estate held for investment. The Company will rent the properties until it is deemed desirable to sell them.
The allowance for losses on mortgage loans held for investment could change based on changes in the value of the underlying collateral, the performance status of the loans, or the Company's actual collection experience. The actual losses could change, in the near term, from the established allowance, based upon the occurrence or non-occurrence of these events.

Loan Loss Reserve
The mortgage loan loss reserve is an estimate of probable losses at the balance sheet date that the Company will realize in the future on mortgage loans sold to third party investors.
The loan loss reserve analysis involves mortgage loans that have been sold to third party investors, which were believed to have met investor underwriting guidelines at the time of sale, where the Company has received a demand from the investor. There are generally three types of demands: make whole, repurchase, or indemnification. These types of demands are more particularly described as follows:
Make whole demand – A make whole demand occurs when an investor forecloses on a property and then sells the property. The make whole amount is calculated as the difference between the original unpaid principal balance, accrued interest and fees, less the sale proceeds.
Repurchase demand – A repurchase demand usually occurs when there is a significant payment default, error in underwriting or detected loan fraud.
Indemnification demand – On certain loans the Company has negotiated a set fee that is to be paid in lieu of repurchase. The fee varies by investor and by loan product type.
Additional information related to the Loan Loss Reserve is included in Note 2.
Future Life, Annuity and Other Policy Benefits
Future policy benefit reserves for traditional life insurance are computed using a net level method, including assumptions as to investment yields, mortality, morbidity, withdrawals, and other assumptions based on the life insurance subsidiaries' experience, modified as necessary to give effect to anticipated trends and to include provisions for possible unfavorable deviations. Such liabilities are, for some plans, graded to equal statutory values or cash values at or prior to maturity. The range of assumed interest rates for all traditional life insurance policy reserves was 4.5% to 10%. Benefit reserves for traditional limited-payment life insurance policies include the deferred portion of the premiums received during the premium-paying period. Deferred premiums are recognized as income over the life of the policies. Policy benefit claims are charged to expense in the period the claims are incurred. Increases in future policy benefits are charged to expense.
Future policy benefit reserves for interest-sensitive insurance products are computed under a retrospective deposit method and represent policy account balances before applicable surrender charges. Policy benefits and claims that are charged to expense include benefit claims incurred in the period in excess of related policy account balances. Interest crediting rates for interest-sensitive insurance products ranged from 3% to 6.5%.
Participating Insurance
Participating business constituted 2% of insurance in force for the years ended 2016, 2015 and 2014. The provision for policyholders' dividends included in policyholder obligations is based on dividend scales anticipated by management. Amounts to be paid are determined by the Board of Directors.
Reinsurance
The Company follows the procedure of reinsuring risks in excess of $100,000 to provide for greater diversification of business to allow management to control exposure to potential losses arising from large risks, and provide additional capacity for growth. The Company remains liable for amounts ceded in the event the reinsurers are unable to meet their obligations.

1) Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
The Company entered into coinsurance agreements with unaffiliated insurance companies under which the Company assumed 100% of the risk for certain life insurance policies and certain other policy-related liabilities of the insurance company.
Reinsurance premiums, commissions, expense reimbursements, and reserves related to reinsured business are accounted for on a basis consistent with those used in accounting for the original policies issued and the terms of the reinsurance contracts. Expense allowances received in connection with reinsurance ceded are accounted for as a reduction of the related policy acquisition costs and are deferred and amortized accordingly.
Pre-need Sales and Costs
Pre-need contract sales of funeral services and caskets - revenue and costs associated with the sales of pre-need funeral services and caskets are deferred until the services are performed or the caskets are delivered.
Sales of cemetery interment rights (cemetery burial property) - revenue and costs associated with the sale of cemetery interment rights are recognized in accordance with the retail land sales provisions based on GAAP. Under GAAP, recognition of revenue and associated costs from constructed cemetery property must be deferred until a minimum percentage of the sales price has been collected.
Pre-need contract sales of cemetery merchandise (primarily markers and vaults) - revenue and costs associated with the sale of pre-need cemetery merchandise is deferred until the merchandise is delivered. Pre-need contract sales of cemetery services (primarily merchandise delivery, installation fees and burial opening and closing fees) - revenue and costs associated with the sales of pre-need cemetery services are deferred until the services are performed.
Prearranged funeral and pre-need cemetery customer acquisition costs - costs incurred related to obtaining new pre-need contract cemetery and prearranged funeral services are accounted for under the guidance of the provisions based on GAAP. Obtaining costs, which include only costs that vary with and are primarily related to the acquisition of new pre-need cemetery and prearranged funeral services, are deferred until the merchandise is delivered or services are performed.
Revenues and costs for at‑need sales are recorded when a valid contract exists, the services are performed, collection is reasonably assured and there are no significant obligations remaining.
The Company, through its cemetery and mortuary operations, provides guaranteed funeral arrangements wherein a prospective customer can receive future goods and services at guaranteed prices. To accomplish this, the Company, through its life insurance operations, sells to the customer an increasing benefit life insurance policy that is assigned to the mortuaries. If, at the time of need, the policyholder/potential mortuary customer utilizes one of the Company's facilities, the guaranteed funeral arrangement contract that has been assigned will provide the funeral goods and services at the contracted price. The increasing life insurance policy will cover the difference between the original contract prices and current prices. Risks may arise if the difference cannot be fully met by the life insurance policy. However, management believes that given current inflation rates and related price increases of goods and services, the risk of exposure is minimal.
Mortgage Fee Income
Mortgage fee income consists of origination fees, processing fees and certain other income related to the origination and sale of mortgage loans. For mortgage loans sold to third party investors, mortgage fee income and related expenses are recognized pursuant to GAAP at the time the sales of mortgage loans comply with the sales criteria for the transfer of financial assets, which are: (i) the transferred assets have been isolated from the Company and its creditors, (ii) the transferee has the right to pledge or exchange the mortgage, and (iii) the Company does not maintain effective control over the transferred mortgage.

The Company, through its mortgage subsidiaries, sells mortgage loans to third party investors without recourse. However, it may be required to repurchase a loan or pay a fee instead of repurchase under certain events, which include the following:

· | Failure to deliver original documents specified by the investor,
· | The existence of misrepresentation or fraud in the origination of the loan,
· | The loan becomes delinquent due to nonpayment during the first several months after it is sold,
· | Early pay-off of a loan, as defined by the agreements,
· | Excessive time to settle a loan,
· | Investor declines purchase, and
· | Discontinued product and expired commitment.

Loan purchase commitments generally specify a date 30 to 45 days after delivery upon which the underlying loans should be settled. Depending on market conditions, these commitment settlement dates can be extended at a cost to the Company.
It is the Company's policy to cure any documentation problems regarding such loans at a minimal cost for up to a six-month time period and to pursue efforts to enforce loan purchase commitments from third-party investors concerning the loans. The Company believes that six months allows adequate time to remedy any documentation issues, to enforce purchase commitments, and to exhaust other alternatives. Remedial methods include the following:

· | Research reasons for rejection,
· | Provide additional documents,
· | Request investor exceptions,
· | Appeal rejection decision to purchase committee, and
· | Commit to secondary investors.

Once purchase commitments have expired and other alternatives to remedy are exhausted, which could be earlier than the six-month time period, the loans are repurchased and transferred to the long-term investment portfolio at the lower of cost or fair value and previously recorded sales revenue that was to be received from a third-party investor is written off against the loan loss reserve. Any loan that later becomes delinquent is evaluated by the Company at that time and any impairment is adjusted accordingly.
Determining Lower of Cost or Market
Cost is equal to the amount paid to the warehouse bank and the amount originally funded by the Company. Market value is often difficult to determine, but is based on the following:

· | For loans that have an active market the Company uses the market price on the repurchased date.
· | For loans where there is no market but there is a similar product, the Company uses the market value for the similar product on the repurchased date.
· | For loans where no active market exists on the repurchased date, the Company determines that the unpaid principal balance best approximates the market value on the repurchased date, after considering the fair value of the underlying real estate collateral and estimated future cash flows.

The appraised value of the real estate underlying the original mortgage loan adds support to the Company's determination of fair value because if the loan becomes delinquent, the Company has sufficient value to collect the unpaid principal balance or the carrying value of the loan. In determining the market value on the date of repurchase, the Company considers the total value of all of the loans because any sale of loans would be made as a pool.
The Company provides an allowance for loan losses on its mortgage loans held for investment. The allowance is comprised of two components. The first component is an allowance for collectively evaluated impairment that is based upon the Company's historical experience in collecting similar receivables. The second component is based upon individual evaluation of loans that are determined to be impaired.

1) Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
Commercial Loans
Each quarter, management reviews the current commercial loans and determines if an allowance is required based on the Company's actual experience of losses on impaired commercial loans. To date, the Company has not incurred any significant losses. The carrying value of all commercial loans is supported by appraisals and cash flow analysis of revenue received. Also, the Company does not accrue any interest income or capitalize any of the foreclosure costs on impaired commercial loans.
Residential and Construction Loans
The Company believes that in an orderly market fair value will approximate the replacement cost of a home and the rental income provides a cash flow stream for investment analysis. The Company believes the highest and best use of the properties are as income producing assets since it is the Company's intent to hold the properties as rental properties, matching the income from the investment in rental properties with the funds required for future estimated policy claims. Accordingly, the fair value determination will be weighted more heavily toward the rental analysis.
It should be noted that for replacement cost, when determining the fair value of mortgage properties, the Company uses Marshall and Swift, a provider of building cost information to the real estate construction industry. For the investment analysis, the Company used market data based upon its real estate operation experience and projected the present value of the net rental income over seven years. The Company used 20% of the projected cash flow analysis and 80% of the replacement cost to approximate fair value of the collateral.
Each quarter the Company also analyzes its current loan portfolio and determines the level of allowance needed for loans that are listed as current in the portfolio. The basis of the analysis places a higher weight on loans with high loan to value ratios, those that lack mortgage insurance, and certain loan types that have a higher percentage of default based on the Company's experience.
Each quarter the Company makes further analysis of the foreclosed properties to determine if any additional allowances are necessary by comparing national indexes of loan to value ratios by region to the Company's loan to value ratios. Based upon the above procedures, the Company's management believes that residential and residential construction loans are reflected in the Company's financial statements at the lower of cost or market in accordance with GAAP requirements.
Goodwill
Previous acquisitions have been accounted for as purchases under which assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded at their fair values with the excess purchase price recognized as goodwill. The Company evaluates annually or when changes in circumstances warrant the recoverability of goodwill and if there is a decrease in value, the related impairment is recognized as a charge against income. No impairment of goodwill has been recognized in the accompanying financial statements.
Long-lived Assets
Long-lived assets to be held and used are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the related carrying amount may not be recoverable. When required, impairment losses on assets to be held and used are recognized based on the fair value of the asset, and long-lived assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell. No impairment of long-lived assets has been recognized in the accompanying financial statements.

Income Taxes
Income taxes include taxes currently payable plus deferred taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to the temporary differences in the financial reporting basis and tax basis of assets and liabilities and operating loss carry-forwards. Deferred tax assets are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which these temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.
Liabilities are established for uncertain tax positions expected to be taken in income tax returns when such positions are judged to meet the "more-likely-than-not" threshold based on the technical merits of the positions. Estimated interest and penalties related to uncertain tax penalties are included as a component of other expenses.
Earnings Per Common Share
The Company computes earnings per share in accordance with GAAP which requires presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share. Basic earnings per equivalent Class A common share are computed by dividing net earnings by the weighted-average number of Class A common shares outstanding during each year presented, after the effect of the assumed conversion of Class C common stock to Class A common stock. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net earnings by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the year used to compute basic earnings per share plus dilutive potential incremental shares. Basic and diluted earnings per share amounts have been adjusted retroactively for the effect of annual stock dividends.
Stock Based Compensation
The cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments is recognized in the financial statements and is measured based on the fair value on the grant date of the award. The fair value of stock options is calculated using the Black Scholes method. Stock option compensation expense is recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award.
Concentration of Credit Risk
For a description of the geographic concentration risk regarding mortgage loans and real estate, refer to Note 2 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
Advertising
The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
ASU No. 2016-13: "Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326)" – Issued in June 2016, ASU 2016-13 amends guidance on reporting credit losses for assets held at amortized cost basis and available for sale debt securities. For assets held at amortized cost basis, Topic 326 eliminates the probable initial recognition threshold in current generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") and, instead, requires an entity to reflect its current estimate of all expected credit losses. The allowance for credit losses is a valuation account that is deducted from the amortized cost basis of the financial assets to present the net amount expected to be collected. For available for sale debt securities, credit losses should be measured in a manner similar to current GAAP, however Topic 326 will require that credit losses be presented as an allowance rather than as a write-down. The new authoritative guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company is in the process of evaluating the potential impact of this standard.
ASU No. 2016-02: "Leases (Topic 842)" - Issued in February 2016, ASU 2016-02 supersedes the leases requirements in ASC Topic 840, "Leases", and was issued to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. The new authoritative guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company is in the process of evaluating the potential impact of this standard.
ASU No. 2016-01: "Financial Instruments – Overall (Topic 825-10)" – Issued in January 2016, ASU 2016-01 changes the accounting for non-consolidated equity investments that are not accounted for under the equity method of accounting by requiring changes in fair value to be recognized in income. Under current guidance, changes in fair value for investments of this nature are recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income as a component of stockholders' equity. Additionally, ASU 2016-01 simplifies the impairment assessment of equity investments without readily determinable fair values; requires entities to use the exit price when estimating the fair value of financial instruments; and modifies various presentation disclosure requirements for financial instruments. The new authoritative guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company is in the process of evaluating the potential impact of this standard.
ASU No. 2014-09: "Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)" - Issued in May 2014, ASU 2014-09 supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in ASC Topic 605, "Revenue Recognition", and requires entities to recognize revenue in a way that depicts the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Insurance contracts are excluded from the scope of this new guidance. The new authoritative guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company is in the process of evaluating the potential impact of this standard, which is not expected to be material to the Company's results of operations or financial position.
The Company has reviewed other recent accounting pronouncements and has determined that they will not significantly impact the Company's results of operations or financial position.

During the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, an other than temporary decline in market value resulted in the recognition of credit losses on fixed maturity securities of $100,000, $120,000 and $120,000, respectively.
On a quarterly basis, the Company reviews its available for sale and held to maturity fixed investment securities related to corporate securities and other public utilities, consisting of bonds and preferred stocks that are in a loss position. The review involves an analysis of the securities in relation to historical values, and projected earnings and revenue growth rates. Based on the analysis, a determination is made whether a security will likely recover from the loss position within a reasonable period of time. If it is unlikely that the investment will recover from the loss position, the loss is considered to be other than temporary, the security is written down to the impaired value and an impairment loss is recognized.

The average market value of the equity securities available for sale was 81.4% and 74.7% of the original investment as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The intent of the Company is to retain equity securities for a period of time sufficient to allow for the recovery in fair value. However, the Company may sell equity securities during a period in which the fair value has declined below the amount of the original investment. In certain situations, new factors, including changes in the business environment, can change the Company's previous intent to continue holding a security. During the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015, and 2014, an other than temporary decline in the market value resulted in the recognition of an impairment loss on equity securities of $170,358, $293,714, and $44,240, respectively.
On a quarterly basis, the Company reviews its investment in industrial, miscellaneous and all other equity securities that are in a loss position. The review involves an analysis of the securities in relation to historical values, price earnings ratios, projected earnings and revenue growth rates. Based on the analysis a determination is made whether a security will likely recover from the loss position within a reasonable period of time. If it is unlikely that the investment will recover from the loss position, the loss is considered to be other than temporary, the security is written down to the impaired value and an impairment loss is recognized.
The fair values of fixed maturity securities are based on quoted market prices, when available. For fixed maturity securities not actively traded, fair values are estimated using values obtained from independent pricing services, or in the case of private placements, are estimated by discounting expected future cash flows using a current market value applicable to the coupon rate, credit and maturity of the investments. The fair values for equity securities are based on quoted market prices.

The Company reports real estate held for investment pursuant to the accounting policy discussed in Note 1 and Note 16 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
Commercial Real Estate Held for Investment
The Company owns and manages commercial real estate assets as a means of generating investment income.

Residential Real Estate Held for Investment
The Company owns a portfolio of residential homes primarily as a result of loan foreclosures. The strategy has been to lease these homes to produce cash flow, and allow time for the economic fundamentals to return to the various markets. As an orderly and active market for these homes returns, the Company has the option to dispose or to continue and hold them for cash flow and acceptable returns.
The Company established Security National Real Estate Services ("SNRE") in 2013 to manage the residential portfolio. SNRE cultivates and maintains the preferred vendor relationships necessary to manage costs and quality of work performed on the portfolio of homes across the country.
As of December 31, 2016, SNRE manages 129 residential properties in 8 states across the United States which includes a newly constructed apartment complex, Dry Creek at East Village, in Sandy Utah.

Real Estate Owned and Occupied by the Company
The primary business units of the Company occupy a portion of the real estate owned by the Company. Currently, the Company occupies nearly 80,000 square feet, or 10% of the overall commercial real estate holdings.
As of December 31, 2016, real estate owned and occupied by the company is summarized as follows:

Location |  | Business Segment |  | Approximate Square Footage |  | Square Footage Occupied by the Company
5300 South 360 West, Salt Lake City, UT (1) |  | Corporate Offices, Life Insurance and Cemetery/Mortuary Operations |  | 36,000 |  | 100%

1044 River Oaks Dr., Flowood, MS |  | Life Insurance Operations |  | 5,522 |  | 27%
(1) This asset is included in property and equipment on the Consolidated Balance Sheet |  |  |  |

Mortgage Loans
Mortgage loans consist of first and second mortgages. The mortgage loans bear interest at rates ranging from 2.0 % to 10.5%, maturity dates range from three months to 30 years and are secured by real estate. Concentrations of credit risk arise when a number of mortgage loan debtors have similar economic characteristics that would cause their ability to meet contractual obligations to be similarly affected by changes in economic conditions. Although the Company has a diversified mortgage loan portfolio consisting of residential mortgages, commercial loans and residential construction loans and requires collateral on all real estate exposures, a substantial portion of its debtors' ability to honor obligations is reliant on the economic stability of the geographic region in which the debtors do business. At December 31, 2016, the Company has 42%, 14%, 9%, 8% and 7% of its mortgage loans from borrowers located in the states of Utah, California, Texas, Florida and Nevada, respectively. The mortgage loans on real estate balances on the consolidated balance sheet are reflected net of an allowance for loan losses of $1,748,783 and $1,848,120 at December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Non-Accrual Mortgage Loans
Once a loan is past due 90 days, it is the policy of the Company to end the accrual of interest income on the loan and write off any income that had been accrued. Interest not accrued on these loans totals $172,000 and $268,000 as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
The following is a summary of mortgage loans on a non-accrual status for the periods presented.

Loan Loss Reserve
When a repurchase demand corresponding to a mortgage loan previously sold to a third party investor is received from a third-party investor, the relevant data is reviewed and captured so that an estimated future loss can be calculated. The key factors that are used in the estimated loss calculation are as follows: (i) lien position, (ii) payment status, (iii) claim type, (iv) unpaid principal balance, (v) interest rate, and (vi) validity of the demand. Other data is captured and is useful for management purposes; the actual estimated loss is generally based on these key factors. The Company conducts its own review upon the receipt of a repurchase demand. In many instances, the Company is able to resolve the issues relating to the repurchase demand by the third-party investor without having to make any payments to the investor.
The following is a summary of the loan loss reserve which is included in other liabilities and accrued expenses:

|  | December 31 |
|  | 2016 (As Restated) |  |  | 2015 (As Restated) |
Balance, beginning of period |  | $ | 2,805,900 |  |  | $ | 1,718,150 |
Provision for current loan originations (1) |  |  | 2,988,754 |  |  |  | 2,845,940 |
Additional provision for loan loss reserve |  |  | 1,700,000 |  |  |  | 3,449,103 |
Charge-offs and settlements |  |  | (6,866,921 | ) |  |  | (5,207,293 | )
Balance, at December 31 |  | $ | 627,733 |  |  | $ | 2,805,900 |
(1) Included in Mortgage fee income |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |

The Company believes the loan loss reserve represents probable loan losses incurred as of the balance sheet date. Actual loan loss experience could change, in the near-term, from the established reserve based upon claims that could be asserted by third party investors. SecurityNational Mortgage believes there is potential to resolve any alleged claims by third party investors on acceptable terms. If SecurityNational Mortgage is unable to resolve such claims on acceptable terms, legal action may ensue. In the event of legal action by any third-party investor, SecurityNational Mortgage believes it has significant defenses to any such action and intends to vigorously defend itself against such action.
3) Receivables
Receivables consist of the following:

6) Bank and Other Loans Payable (Continued)
During 2001, the Company entered into an interest rate swap instrument that effectively fixed the interest rate on the note payable at 6.34% per annum. Management considers the interest rate swap instrument an effective cash flow hedge against the variable interest rate on the bank note since the interest rate swap mirrors the term of the note payable and expires on the maturity date of the bank loan it hedges. The interest rate swap is a derivative financial instrument carried at its fair value.
In the event the swap is terminated, any resulting gain or loss would be deferred and amortized to interest expense over the remaining life of the bank loan it hedged. In the event of early extinguishment of the hedged bank loan, any realized or unrealized gain or loss from the hedging swap would be recognized in income coincident with the extinguishment.
At December 31, 2016 and 2015, the fair value of the interest rate swap was an unrealized loss of $3,308 and $13,947, respectively, and was computed based on the underlying variable Libor rate plus 1.65%, or 2.65% per annum. The unrealized loss resulted in a derivative liability of $3,308 and $13,947 and has been reflected in accumulated other comprehensive income. The change in accumulated other comprehensive income from the interest rate swap in 2016 and 2015 was $10,639 and $17,423, respectively. The fair value of the interest rate swap was derived from a proprietary model of the bank from whom the interest rate swap was purchased and to whom the note is payable.
The Company has a $2,000,000 revolving line-of-credit with a bank with interest payable at the prime rate minus .75% (3.00% at December 31, 2016), secured by the capital stock of Security National Life and maturing September 30, 2017, renewable annually. At December 31, 2016, the Company was contingently liable under a standby letter of credit aggregating $560,350, to be used as collateral to cover any contingency related to additional risk assessments pertaining to the Company's captive insurance program and under a standby letter of credit aggregating $48,220 issued as a security deposit to guarantee payment of final bills for electric and gas utility services for a commercial real estate property owned by the Company in Wichita, Kansas. The Company does not expect any material losses to result from the issuance of the standby letter of credit because claims are not expected to exceed premiums paid. As of December 31, 2016, there were no amounts outstanding under the revolving line-of-credit.
The Company has a $2,500,000 revolving line-of-credit with a bank with interest payable at the overnight LIBOR rate plus 2.25% (2.9375% at December 31, 2016) maturing September 14, 2017. At December 31, 2016, SecurityNational Mortgage was contingently liable under a standby letter of credit aggregating $1,250,000, to be used as collateral to cover any contingency relating to claims filed in states where SecurityNational Mortgage is licensed. The Company does not expect any material losses to result from the issuance of the standby letters of credit. As of December 31, 2016, there were no amounts outstanding under the revolving line-of-credit.

9) Reinsurance, Commitments and Contingencies
Reinsurance
The Company follows the procedure of reinsuring risks in excess of a specified limit, which ranged from $25,000 to $100,000 during the years 2016 and 2015. The Company is liable for these amounts in the event such reinsurers are unable to pay their portion of the claims. The Company has also assumed insurance from other companies having insurance in force amounting to approximately $110,000 (unaudited) and approximately $1,468,935,000 (unaudited) at December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The Company terminated its participation in Servicemembers' Group Life Insurance in 2016 causing this assumed insurance in force amount to decrease.
Reinsurance Agreement with North America Life Insurance Company
On May 8, 2015, the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary, Security National Life, signed a paid-up business offer under a coinsurance agreement that was effective December 1, 2010 to reinsure certain life insurance policies from North America Life Insurance Company ("North America Life"). Pursuant to the paid-up business offer, North America Life ceded and transferred to Security National Life all contractual obligations and risks under the coinsured policies. Security National Life paid a ceding commission to North America Life in the amount of $281,908. As a result of the ceding commission, North America Life transferred $8,900,282 of cash and $9,182,190 in statutory reserves, or liabilities, to Security National Life.

Reinsurance Agreement with American Republic Insurance Company
On February 11, 2015, the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary, Security National Life, signed a coinsurance agreement to reinsure certain life insurance policies from American Republic Insurance Company ("American Republic"). The policies were previously reinsured by North America Life under a coinsurance agreement between World Insurance Company ("World Insurance") and North America Life that was entered into on July 22, 2009, which was subsequently commuted. World Insurance was subsequently purchased by and merged into American Republic. The current coinsurance agreement is now between Security National Life and American Republic and became effective on January 1, 2015. As part of the coinsurance agreement, American Republic transferred all contractual obligations and risks to Security National Life and Security National Life took control of $15,004,771 of assets in a trust account held by Texas Capital Bank as the trustee. The assets have subsequently been moved to a trust account held by Zions Bank as the trustee.
Mortgage Loan Loss Settlements
Future loan losses can be extremely difficult to estimate. However, management believes that the Company's reserve methodology and its current practice of property preservation allow it to estimate potential losses on loans sold. The additional amounts expensed for loan losses in years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014 were $1,700,000, $3,449,103 and $1,000,000, respectively, and the charge has been included in selling, general and administrative expenses. The estimated liability for indemnification losses is included in other liabilities and accrued expenses and, as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, the balances were $628,000 and $2,806,000, respectively.
Settlement of Investigation by U.S. Department of Justice and the Office of the Inspector General for the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) of Certain FHA-Insured Mortgage Loans Originated
On September 30, 2016, the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary, SecurityNational Mortgage, announced the execution of a settlement agreement with the U.S. Department of Justice and the United States Attorney's Office in connection with the origination and underwriting by SecurityNational Mortgage of certain Federal Housing Administration (FHA) insured loans. SecurityNational Mortgage, like many other high volume FHA-approved lenders, was being reviewed by the U.S. Department of Justice and the Office of the Inspector General of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) for loan origination activities that occurred as long as nine years ago.
Without any admission of liability and in order to avoid the extended distractions and expenses associated with protracted litigation, SecurityNational Mortgage made a business decision to resolve this matter. Pursuant to the settlement agreement, SecurityNational Mortgage was required to make a payment in the amount of $4,250,000 to the U.S. Department of Justice, which payment was made on October 4, 2016. SecurityNational Mortgage continues to be able to originate FHA-insured mortgage loans and participate fully in all FHA programs as this settlement agreement does not affect SecurityNational Mortgage's status with the Department of Housing and Urban Development. In addition, this settlement does not include any allegations or findings against any particular individuals, such as officers, directors, employees or agents of SecurityNational Mortgage.
Mortgage Loan Loss Litigation
Lehman Brothers and Aurora Loan Services Litigation - Utah
On April 15, 2005, SecurityNational Mortgage entered into a Loan Purchase Agreement with Lehman Brothers Bank, FSB ("Lehman Bank") which agreement incorporated a Seller's Guide. Pursuant to the Loan Purchase Agreement, Lehman Bank purchased mortgage loans from time to time from SecurityNational Mortgage. Lehman Bank asserted that certain of the mortgage loans that it purchased from SecurityNational Mortgage contained alleged misrepresentations and early payment defaults. As a result, Lehman Bank contended it had the right to require SecurityNational Mortgage to repurchase certain loans or be liable for losses related to such Loans under the Loan Purchase Agreement. SecurityNational Mortgage disagreed with these claims.

9) Reinsurance, Commitments and Contingencies (Continued)
On December 17, 2007, SecurityNational Mortgage entered into an Indemnification Agreement with Lehman Bank and Aurora Loan Services LLC ("Aurora"). Under the terms of the Indemnification Agreement, SecurityNational Mortgage agreed to indemnify Lehman Bank and Aurora for certain amounts of actual losses, as defined, that Lehman Bank and Aurora may incur on account of the alleged breaches and early payment defaults pertaining to certain identified loans. A reserve account was set up to cover said losses. From the time the reserve account was established, approximately $4,300,000 was taken from the reserve account to indemnify Lehman Bank and Aurora for alleged losses. On March 28, 2011, Aurora Bank FSB (formerly known as Lehman Brothers Bank, FSB) ("Aurora Bank") and Aurora allegedly assigned certain rights and remedies under the Indemnification Agreement to Lehman Brothers Holdings, Inc. ("Lehman Holdings").
On May 11, 2011, SecurityNational Mortgage filed a complaint against Aurora Bank and Aurora in the United States District Court, Utah, which was assigned to Judge David Nuffer. The allegations in the complaint included breach of the Indemnification Agreement. SecurityNational Mortgage claimed it was entitled to a judgment of approximately $4,000,000 against Aurora Bank, as well as Aurora to the extent of its involvement, for payments which should not have been taken from the reserve account.
On June 8, 2011, Lehman Holdings, which had filed for bankruptcy in September 2008, filed a complaint in the United States District Court, Utah against SecurityNational Mortgage. The case was assigned to Judge Ted Stewart. The complaint alleged claims for damages for breach of contract and breach of warranty pursuant to the Loan Purchase Agreement, as well as alleged early payment default loans, and initially claimed damages in excess of $5,000,000. Lehman Holdings further alleged that Aurora Bank sold mortgage loans to it and assigned contractual rights and remedies. SecurityNational Mortgage strongly disagreed with the claims in Lehman Holdings' complaint.
On November 29, 2016, Judge Nuffer entered a judgment in favor of SecurityNational Mortgage Company, jointly and severally against Aurora Commercial Corporation (successor by merger to Aurora Bank), Aurora Bank and Aurora. The amount of the judgment was $3,892,974 principal, plus interest through May 31, 2014 in the amount of $1,674,240, plus interest for each day after May 31, 2014 until judgment (dated November 29, 2016) at the rate of $960 per diem.
In December 2016, the cases before Judge Nuffer and Judge Stewart were settled. Final settlement agreements were executed on December 20, 2016, which were effective as of December 9, 2016. Under the terms of the settlement, payments were made by Aurora Commercial to SecurityNational Mortgage, and by SecurityNational Mortgage to Lehman Holdings. The net result of the settlement involving both of the Utah cases was that $2,125,000 more was paid to Lehman Holdings. Additionally, the release agreed to by the parties covered claims arising from the sale of mortgage loans by SecurityNational Mortgage to Aurora Bank or Lehman Holdings that were included in the Utah cases.
Lehman Brothers Litigation – Delaware and New York
In January 2014, Lehman Holdings entered into a settlement with the Federal National Mortgage Association (Fannie Mae) concerning the mortgage loan claims asserted by Fannie Mae against Lehman Holdings that were based on alleged breaches of certain representations and warranties by Lehman Holdings. Lehman Holdings had acquired these loans from Aurora Bank, which in turn purchased the loans from residential mortgage loan originators, including SecurityNational Mortgage. A settlement based on similar circumstances was entered into between Lehman Holdings and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (Freddie Mac) in February 2014.
Lehman Holdings filed a motion in May 2014 with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court of the Southern District of New York to require the mortgage loan originators, including SecurityNational Mortgage, to engage in non-binding mediations of its alleged indemnification claims against the mortgage loan originators relative to the Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac settlements with Lehman Holdings. The mediation was not successful in resolving any issues between SecurityNational Mortgage and Lehman Holdings.
On January 26, 2016, SecurityNational Mortgage filed a declaratory judgment action against Lehman Holdings in the Superior Court for the State of Delaware. In the Delaware action, SecurityNational Mortgage asserted its right to obtain a declaration of rights in that there are allegedly millions of dollars in dispute with Lehman Holdings pertaining to approximately 136 loans. SecurityNational Mortgage sought declaratory judgment as to its rights as it contends that it has no liability to Lehman Holdings as a result of Lehman Holdings' settlements with Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. Lehman Holdings filed a motion in the Delaware court seeking to stay or dismiss the declaratory judgment action. On August 24, 2016, the Court ruled that it would exercise its discretion to decline jurisdiction over the action and granted Lehman Holdings' motion to dismiss.

9) Reinsurance, Commitments and Contingencies (Continued)
On February 3, 2016, Lehman Holdings filed an adversary proceeding against approximately 150 mortgage loan originators, including SecurityNational Mortgage, in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court of the Southern District of New York seeking a declaration of rights similar in nature to the declaration that SecurityNational Mortgage sought in its Delaware lawsuit, and for damages relating to the defendants' obligations under indemnification provisions of the alleged agreements, in amounts to be determined at trial, including interest, attorneys' fees and costs incurred by Lehman Holdings in enforcing the obligations of the defendants. A Case Management Order ("CMO") was entered on November 1, 2016. On December 27, 2016, pursuant to the CMO, Lehman Holdings filed a Second Amended Complaint against SecurityNational Mortgage. The case is presently in a motion period and no Answer is required to be filed by SecurityNational Mortgage pending further order of the Court. SecurityNational Mortgage denies that it has any liability to Lehman Holdings and intends to vigorously protect and defend such position.
Non-Cancelable Leases
The Company leases office space and equipment under various non-cancelable agreements, with remaining terms up to five years. Minimum lease payments under these non-cancelable operating leases as of December 31, 2016, are approximately as follows:

Years Ending |  |  |
December 31 |  |  |
2017 |  | $ | 6,556,093 |
2018 |  |  | 4,121,399 |
2019 |  |  | 2,583,941 |
2020 |  |  | 1,151,873 |
2021 |  |  | 496,713 |
Total |  | $ | 14,910,019 |

Total rent expense related to non-cancelable operating leases for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015, and 2014 was approximately $7,879,000, $7,199,000 and $5,589,000, respectively.
Other Contingencies and Commitments
The Company has entered into commitments to fund construction and land development loans and has also provided financing for land acquisition and development. As of December 31, 2016, the Company's commitments were approximately $56,422,000, for these loans of which $40,800,000 had been funded. The Company will advance funds once the work has been completed and an independent inspection is made. The maximum loan commitment ranges between 50% and 80% of appraised value. The Company receives fees and interest for these loans and the interest rate is generally fixed 5.50% to 8.00% per annum. Maturities range between six and eighteen months.
The Company belongs to a captive insurance group for certain casualty insurance, worker compensation and liability programs. Insurance reserves are maintained relative to these programs. The level of exposure from catastrophic events is limited by the purchase of stop-loss and aggregate liability reinsurance coverage. When estimating the insurance liabilities and related reserves, the captive insurance management considers a number of factors, which include historical claims experience, demographic factors, severity factors and valuations provided by independent third-party actuaries. If actual claims or adverse development of loss reserves occurs and exceed these estimates, additional reserves may be required. The estimation process contains uncertainty since captive insurance management must use judgment to estimate the ultimate cost that will be incurred to settle reported claims and unreported claims for incidents incurred but not reported as of the balance sheet date. At December 31, 2016, $416,576 of reserves was established related to such insurance programs versus $834,855 at December 31, 2015.

9) Reinsurance, Commitments and Contingencies (Continued)
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.
The Company is not a party to any other material legal proceedings outside the ordinary course of business or to any other legal proceedings, which, if adversely determined, would have a material adverse effect on its financial condition or results of operations.
10) Retirement Plans
The Company and its subsidiaries have a noncontributory Employee Stock Ownership Plan ("ESOP") for all eligible employees. Eligible employees are primarily those with more than one year of service, who work in excess of 1,000 hours per year. Contributions, which may be in cash or stock of the Company, are determined annually by the Board of Directors.
The Company's contributions are allocated to eligible employees based on the ratio of each eligible employee's compensation to total compensation for all eligible employees during each year. The Company did not make any contributions for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014. At December 31, 2016, the ESOP held 500,450 shares of Class A and 265,623 shares of Class C common stock of the Company. All shares held by the ESOP have been allocated to the participating employees and all shares held by the ESOP are considered outstanding for purposes of computing earnings per share.
The Company has three 401(k) savings plans covering all eligible employees, as defined above, which includes employer participation in accordance with the provisions of Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code. The plans allow participants to make pretax contributions up to a maximum of $18,000, $18,000 and $17,500 for the years 2016, 2015 and 2014, respectively or the statutory limits.
Beginning January 1, 2008, the Company elected to be a "Safe Harbor" Plan for its matching 401(k) contributions. The Company matched 100% of up to 3% of an employee's total annual compensation and matched 50% of 4% to 5% of an employee's annual compensation. The match was in Company stock. The Company's contribution for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014 was $1,429,962, $1,197,236 and $899,850, respectively under the "Safe Harbor" plan.
In 2001, the Company's Board of Directors adopted a Deferred Compensation Plan. Under the terms of the Plan, the Company will provide deferred compensation for a select group of management or highly compensated employees, within the meaning of Sections 201(2), 301(a)(3) and 401(a)(1) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended. The Board has appointed a Committee of the Company to be the Plan Administrator and to determine the employees who are eligible to participate in the plan. The employees who participate may elect to defer a portion of their compensation into the plan. The Company may contribute into the plan at the discretion of the Company's Board of Directors. The Company did not make any contributions for 2016, 2015 and 2014.
On July 16, 2004, the Company entered into an employment agreement with Scott M. Quist, the Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer.

10) Retirement Plans (Continued)
In the event of a sale or merger of the Company and Mr. Quist is not retained in his current position, the Company would be obligated to continue Mr. Quist's current compensation and benefits for seven years following the merger or sale. The agreement further provides that Mr. Quist is entitled to receive annual retirement benefits beginning (i) one month from the date of his retirement (to commence no sooner than age 65), (ii) five years following complete disability, or (iii) upon termination of his employment without cause. These retirement benefits are to be paid for a period of twenty years in annual installments in the amount equal to 75% of his then current rate of compensation. However, in the event that Mr. Quist dies prior to receiving all retirement benefits there under, the remaining benefits are to be paid to his heirs. The Company expensed $511,443, $999,961 and $833,183 during the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, respectively, to cover the present value of anticipated retirement benefits under the employment agreement. The liability accrued is $3,776,368 and $3,264,925 as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively and is included in "Other liabilities and accrued expenses" on the Consolidated Balance Sheet.
On December 31, 2015, J. Lynn Beckstead, Jr., who served as Vice President of Mortgage Operations and President of SecurityNational Mortgage, retired from the Company. Under the terms of the employment agreement that the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary, SecurityNational Mortgage, had entered into with Mr. Beckstead, Mr. Beckstead is entitled to receive retirement benefits from the Company for a period of ten years in an amount equal to 50% of his current rate of compensation at the time of his retirement, which was $267,685 for the year ended December 31, 2015. Such retirement payments are paid monthly during the ten-year period. In determining Mr. Beckstead's current rate of compensation, stock option grants and incentive or similar bonuses are not included. In the event Mr. Beckstead dies prior to receiving all of his retirement benefits under his employment agreement, the remaining benefits will be made to his heirs. The Company expensed $148,557, $320,039 and $154,817 during the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, respectively, to cover the present value of the retirement benefits under the employment agreement.

11) Capital Stock
The Company has one class of preferred stock of $1.00 par value, 5,000,000 shares authorized, of which none are issued. The preferred stock is non-voting.
The Company has two classes of common stock with shares outstanding, Class A common shares and Class C common shares. Class C shares have 10 votes per share on all matters except for the election of one third of the directors who are elected solely by the Class A shares. Class C shares are convertible into Class A shares at any time on a one to one ratio. The decrease in treasury stock was the result of treasury stock being used to fund the company's 401(k) and Deferred Compensation Plans.
Stockholders of both Class A and Class C common stock have received 5% stock dividends in the years 1990 through 2016, as authorized by the Company's Board of Directors.
The Company has Class B common stock of $1.00 par value, 5,000,000 shares authorized, of which none are issued. Class B shares are non-voting stock except to any proposed amendment to the Articles of Incorporation which would affect Class B common stock.
On July 2, 2014, the stockholders approved a 1-for-10 reverse stock split of the Company's Class C common stock at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders. Concurrently with the approval of the reverse stock split, the stockholders also approved amendments to Article V of the Company's Articles of Incorporation to provide that each share of Class C common stock will have weighted voting of ten votes per share and that each share of Class C common stock may be converted into one share of Class A common stock. The Board of Directors had previously approved the reverse stock split and weighted voting of Class C common stock. Prior to the approval of the reverse stock split and weighted voting of Class C shares, the Company's Articles of Incorporation provided that each share of Class C common stock had one vote per share and that Class C common shares were convertible into Class A common shares at a conversion ratio of ten shares of Class C common stock for one share of Class A common stock.

11) Capital Stock (Continued)
The reverse stock split and weighted voting of the Company's Class C common stock became effective on August 1, 2014, when the Articles of Restatement and Amendment to the Company's Articles of Incorporation were filed with the Utah Division of Corporations and Commercial Code. The reverse stock split affected all of the holders of the Company's Class C common stock uniformly but did not affect any Class C stockholder's percentage ownership interest in the Company or proportionate voting power, except for insignificant changes that resulted from the rounding up of fractional shares. Additionally, the reverse stock split did not impact the existing shares of Class A common stock.

As of December 31, 2016, the total unrecognized compensation expense related to the options issued in December 2016 was $374,914, which is expected to be recognized over the vesting period of one year.
The weighted-average fair value of each option granted in 2016 under the 2013 Plan, is estimated at $2.17 for the December 21, 2016 options as of the grant date using the Black Scholes Option Pricing Model with the following assumptions: dividend yield of 5%, volatility of 54.42%, risk-free interest rate of 1.99%, and an expected term of 5.31 years.

The weighted-average fair value of each option granted in 2016 under the 2013 Plan and the 2014 Director Plan, is estimated at $1.89 for the December 2, 2016 options as of the grant date using the Black Scholes Option Pricing Model with the following assumptions: dividend yield of 5%, volatility of 47.05%, risk-free interest rate of 1.78%, and an expected term of 4.33 years.
The weighted-average fair value of each option granted in 2015 under the 2014 Director Plan, is estimated at $1.61 for the December 7, 2015 options as of the grant date using the Black Scholes Option Pricing Model with the following assumptions: dividend yield of 5%, volatility of 43.11%, risk-free interest rate of 1.80%, and an expected term of 5.32 years.
The weighted-average fair value of each option granted in 2015 under the 2013 Plan and the 2014 Director Plan, is estimated at $1.61 for the December 4, 2015 options as of the grant date using the Black Scholes Option Pricing Model with the following assumptions: dividend yield of 5%, volatility of 43.15%, risk-free interest rate of 1.83%, and an expected term of 5.32 years. The weighted-average fair value of each option granted in 2014 under the 2014 Director Plan, is estimated at $1.56 for the December 7, 2014 options as of the grant date using the Black Scholes Option Pricing Model with the following assumptions: dividend yield of 5%, volatility of 52.27%, risk-free interest rate of 1.76%, and an expected term of 5.31 years.

The Company generally estimates the expected life of the options based upon the contractual term of the options adjusted for actual experience. Future volatility is estimated based upon the weighted historical volatility of the Company's Class A common stock over a period equal to the estimated life of the options. Common stock issued upon exercise of stock options are generally new share issuances rather than from treasury shares.

13) Statutory Financial Information and Dividend Limitations
The Company's insurance subsidiaries prepare their statutory-basis financial statements in conformity with accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the insurance department of the applicable state of domicile. Prescribed statutory accounting practices include a variety of publications of the National Association of Insurance Commissioners ("NAIC"), as well as state laws, regulations and general administrative rules. Permitted statutory accounting practices encompass all accounting practices not so prescribed.
All states require domiciled insurance companies to prepare statutory-basis financial statements in conformity with the NAIC Accounting Practices and Procedures Manual, subject to any deviations prescribed or permitted by the applicable insurance commissioner and/or director. Statutory accounting practices differ from GAAP primarily since they require charging policy acquisition and certain sales inducement costs to expense as incurred, establishing life insurance reserves based on different actuarial assumptions, and valuing certain investments and establishing deferred taxes on a different basis.
Statutory net income and capital and surplus of the Company's insurance subsidiaries, determined in accordance with statutory accounting practices prescribed or permitted by insurance regulatory authorities are as follows:

|  | Net Income |  |  | Capital and Surplus |
|  | 2016 |  |  | 2015 |  |  | 2014 |  |  | 2016 |  |  | 2015 |

The Utah, Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi and Texas Insurance Departments impose minimum risk-based capital ("RBC") requirements that were developed by the NAIC on insurance enterprises. The formulas for determining the RBC specify various factors that are applied to financial balances or various levels of activity based on the perceived degree of risk. Regulatory compliance is determined by a ratio (the "Ratio") of the enterprise's regulatory total adjusted capital, as defined by the NAIC, to its authorized control level, as defined by the NAIC. Enterprises below specific trigger points or ratios are classified within certain levels, each of which requires specified corrective action. The life insurance subsidiaries have a combined weighted Ratio that is greater than the first level of regulatory action as of December 31, 2016.
Generally, the net assets of the life insurance subsidiaries available for transfer to the Company are limited to the amounts of the life insurance subsidiaries net assets, as determined in accordance with statutory accounting practices, which were $44,055,297 at December 31, 2016, exceed minimum statutory capital requirements; however, payments of such amounts as dividends are subject to approval by regulatory authorities.

14) Business Segment Information
Description of Products and Services by Segment
The Company has three reportable business segments: life insurance, cemetery and mortuary, and mortgage. The Company's life insurance segment consists of life insurance premiums and operating expenses from the sale of insurance products sold by the Company's independent agency force and net investment income derived from investing policyholder and segment surplus funds. The Company's cemetery and mortuary segment consists of revenues and operating expenses from the sale of at-need cemetery and mortuary merchandise and services at its mortuaries and cemeteries, pre-need sales of cemetery spaces after collection of 10% or more of the purchase price and the net investment income from investing segment surplus funds. The Company's mortgage segment consists of fee income and expenses from the originations of residential mortgage loans and interest earned and interest expenses from warehousing pre-sold loans before the funds are received from financial institutional investors.
Measurement of Segment Profit or Loss and Segment Assets
The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those described in the Significant Accounting Principles. Intersegment revenues are recorded at cost plus an agreed upon intercompany profit, and are eliminated upon consolidation.
Factors Management Used to Identify the Enterprise's Reportable Segments
The Company's reportable segments are business units that are managed separately due to the different products provided and the need to report separately to the various regulatory jurisdictions. The Company regularly reviews the quantitative thresholds and other criteria to determine when other business segments may need to be reported.

15) Related Party Transactions
The Company's Board of Directors has a written procedure, which requires disclosure to the Board of any material interest or any affiliation on the part of any of its officers, directors or employees that is in conflict or may be in conflict with the interests of the Company. The Company and its Board of Directors is unaware of any related party transactions that require disclosure as of December 31, 2016.
16) Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. GAAP also specifies a fair value hierarchy based upon the observability of inputs used in valuation techniques. Observable inputs (highest level) reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs (lowest level) reflect internally developed market assumptions. Fair value measurements are classified under the following hierarchy:
Level 1: Financial assets and financial liabilities whose values are based on unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in an active market that the Company can access.
Level 2: Financial assets and financial liabilities whose values are based on the following:

a) | Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets;
b) | Quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in non-active markets; or
c) | Valuation models whose inputs are observable, directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

Level 3: Financial assets and financial liabilities whose values are based on prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. These inputs may reflect the Company's estimates of the assumptions that market participants would use in valuing the financial assets and financial liabilities.
The Company utilizes a combination of third party valuation service providers, brokers, and internal valuation models to determine fair value.
The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating the fair value disclosures related to other significant financial instruments:
The items shown under Level 1 and Level 2 are valued as follows:
Securities Available for Sale and Held to Maturity: The fair values of investments in fixed maturity and equity securities along with methods used to estimate such values are disclosed in Note 2 of the Notes to Consolidated Statements.
Restricted Assets: A portion of these assets include mutual funds and equity securities that have quoted market prices. Also included are cash and cash equivalents and participations in mortgage loans. The carrying amounts reported in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet for these financial instruments approximate their fair values.
Cemetery Endowment Care Trust Investments: A portion of these assets include equity securities that have quoted market prices. Also included are cash and cash equivalents. The carrying amounts reported in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet for these financial instruments approximate their fair values.
Call and Put Options: The Company uses quoted market prices to value its call and put options.

16) Fair Value of Financial Instruments (Continued)
The items shown under Level 3 are valued as follows:
Policyholder Account Balances and Future Policy Benefits-Annuities: Future policy benefit reserves for interest-sensitive insurance products are computed under a retrospective deposit method and represent policy account balances before applicable surrender charges. Policy benefits and claims that are charged to expense include benefit claims incurred in the period in excess of related policy account balances. Interest crediting rates for interest-sensitive insurance products ranged from 4% to 6.5%. The fair values for the Company's liabilities under investment-type insurance contracts (disclosed as policyholder account balances and future policy benefits – annuities) are estimated based on the contracts' cash surrender values.
The fair values for the Company's insurance contracts other than investment-type contracts are not required to be disclosed. However, the fair values of liabilities under all insurance contracts are taken into consideration in the Company's overall management of interest rate risk, such that the Company's exposure to changing interest rates is minimized through the matching of investment maturities with amounts due under insurance contracts.
Loan Commitments and Forward Sale Commitments: The Company's mortgage segment enters into loan commitments with potential borrowers and forward sale commitments to sell loans to third-party investors. The Company also uses a hedging strategy for these transactions. A 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 issuance of the loan commitment. Loan commitments are defined to be derivatives under GAAP and are recognized at fair value on the consolidated balance sheet with changes in their fair values recorded in current earnings.
The Company estimates the fair value of a loan commitment based on the change in estimated fair value of the underlying mortgage loan, quoted MBS prices, estimates of the fair value of mortgage servicing rights, and an estimate of the probability that the mortgage loan will fund within the terms of the commitment net of estimated commission expense. The change in fair value of the underlying mortgage loan is measured from the date the loan commitment is issued and is shown net of related expenses. Following issuance, the value of a mortgage loan commitment can be either positive or negative depending upon the change in value of the underlying mortgage loans. Fallout rates and other factors from the Company's recent historical data are used to estimate the quantity and value of mortgage loans that will fund within the terms of the commitments.
Interest Rate Swaps: Management considers the interest rate swap instruments to be an effective cash flow hedge against the variable interest rate on bank borrowings since the interest rate swap mirrors the term of the note payable and expires on the maturity date of the bank loan it hedges. The interest rate swaps are derivative financial instruments carried at its fair value. The fair value of the interest rate swap was derived from a proprietary model of the bank from whom the interest rate swap was purchased and to whom the note is payable.
Other Investments: The fair values are estimated using one or more valuation techniques for which sufficient and reliable data is available. Factors considered when estimating the fair value include the original transaction price, recent transactions in the same or similar properties, historical lease rates, comparable lease rates of similar properties, discount rates, market capitalization rates, expected vacancy rates, and changes in financial ratios or cash flow.
Mortgage Loans on Real Estate: The fair values are estimated using interest rates currently being offered for similar loans to borrowers with similar credit ratings. Loans with similar characteristics are aggregated for purposes of the calculations. The carrying amounts reported in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet for these financial instruments approximate their fair values.
Real Estate Held for Investment: The Company believes that in an orderly market fair value will approximate the replacement cost of a home and the rental income provides a cash flow stream for investment analysis. The Company believes the highest and best use of the properties are as income producing assets since it is the Company's intent to hold the properties as rental properties, matching the income from the investment in rental properties with the funds required for future estimated policy claims.
It should be noted that for replacement cost, when determining the fair value of mortgage properties, the Company uses Marshall and Swift, a provider of building cost information to the real estate construction industry. For the investment analysis, the Company used market data based upon its real estate operation experience and projected the present value of the net rental income over seven years. The Company used 20% of the projected cash flow analysis and 80% of the replacement cost to approximate fair value of the collateral.
In addition to this analysis performed by the Company, the Company depreciates Real Estate Held for Investment. This depreciation reduces the book value of these properties and lessens the exposure to the Company from further deterioration in real estate values.

16) Fair Value of Financial Instruments (Continued)
Mortgage Servicing Rights: The Company initially recognizes Mortgage Servicing Rights ("MSRs") at their estimated fair values derived from the net cash flows associated with the servicing contracts, where the Company assumes the obligation to service the loan in the sale transaction. The precise fair value of MSRs cannot be readily determined because MSRs are not actively traded in stand-alone markets. Considerable judgment is required to estimate the fair values of these assets and the exercise of such judgment can significantly affect the Company's earnings.
The Company's subsequent accounting for MSRs is based on the class of MSRs. The Company has identified two classes of MSRs: MSRs backed by mortgage loans with initial term of 30 years and MSRs backed by mortgage loans with initial term of 15 years. The Company distinguishes between these classes of MSRs due to their differing sensitivities to change in value as the result of changes in market. After being initially recorded at fair value, MSRs backed by mortgage loans are accounted for using the amortization method. MSR amortization is determined by amortizing the balance straight-line over an estimated seven and nine-year life which estimates the proportion to, and over the period of the estimated future net servicing income of the underlying financial assets.
The Company periodically assesses MSRs for impairment. Impairment occurs when the current fair value of the MSR falls below the asset's carrying value (carrying value is the amortized cost reduced by any related valuation allowance). If MSRs are impaired, the impairment is recognized in current-period earnings and the carrying value of the MSRs is adjusted through a valuation allowance.
Management periodically reviews the various loan strata to determine whether the value of the MSRs in a given stratum is impaired and likely to recover. When management deems recovery of the value to be unlikely in the foreseeable future, a write-down of the cost of the MSRs for that stratum to its estimated recoverable value is charged to the valuation allowance.
The following table summarizes Level 1, 2 and 3 financial assets and financial liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis by their classification in the consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2016, as restated.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments Carried at Other Than Fair Value
ASC 825, Financial Instruments, requires disclosure of fair value information about financial instruments, whether or not recognized in the balance sheet, for which it is practicable to estimate that value.
Management uses its best judgment in estimating the fair value of the Company's financial instruments; however, there are inherent limitations in any estimation technique. Therefore, for substantially all financial instruments, the fair value estimates presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Company could have realized in a sales transaction at December 31, 2016 and 2015. The estimated fair value amounts for December 31, 2016 and 2015 have been measured as of period-end, and have not been reevaluated or updated for purposes of these Consolidated Financial Statements subsequent to those dates. As such, the estimated fair values of these financial instruments subsequent to the reporting date may be different than the amounts reported at period-end.
The carrying values and estimated fair values for such financial instruments, and their corresponding placement in the fair value hierarchy, are summarized as follows as of December 31, 2016, as restated:

The methods, assumptions and significant valuation techniques and inputs used to estimate the fair value of financial instruments are summarized as follows:
Fixed Maturity Securities, Held to Maturity: The fair values of fixed maturity securities are based on quoted market prices, when available. For fixed maturity securities not actively traded, fair values are estimated using values obtained from independent pricing services, or in the case of private placements, are estimated by discounting expected future cash flows using a current market value applicable to the coupon rate, credit and maturity of the investments.
Mortgage Loans on Real Estate: The estimated fair value of the Company's mortgage loans is determined using various methods. The Company's mortgage loans are grouped into three categories: Residential, Residential Construction and Commercial. When estimating the expected future cash flows, it is assumed that all loans will be held to maturity, and any loans that are non-performing are evaluated individually for impairment.
Residential – The estimated fair value of mortgage loans originated prior to 2013 is determined by estimating expected future cash flows of interest payments and discounting them using current interest rates from single family mortgages. The estimated fair value of mortgage loans originated in 2013 thru 2016 is determined from pricing of similar loans that were sold in 2016.
Residential Construction – These loans are primarily short in maturity (4-6 months) accordingly, the estimated fair value is determined to be the net book value.
Commercial – The estimated fair value is determined by estimating expected future cash flows of interest payments and discounting them using current interest rates for commercial mortgages.
Loans Held for Sale: The fair value is based on quoted market prices, when available. When a quoted market price is not readily available, the Company uses the market price from its last sale of similar assets.
Policy Loans: The carrying amounts reported in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet for these financial instruments approximate their fair values because they are fully collateralized by the cash surrender value of the underlying insurance policies.
Insurance Assignments, Net: These investments are short in maturity accordingly, the carrying amounts reported in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet for these financial instruments approximate their fair values.
Short-Term Investments: The carrying amounts reported in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet for these financial instruments approximate their fair values due to their short-term nature.
Bank and Other Loans Payable: The carrying amounts reported in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet for these financial instruments approximate their fair values due to their short-term nature.

19) Acquisitions
Acquisition of First Guaranty Insurance Company
On July 11, 2016, the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary, Security National Life completed the stock purchase transaction with the shareholders of Reppond Holding Corporation, an Arkansas corporation ("Reppond Holding") and sole shareholder of First Guaranty Insurance Company, a Louisiana domestic stock legal reserve life insurance company ("First Guaranty"), to purchase all the outstanding shares of common stock of Reppond Holding. Under the terms of the stock purchase agreement, dated February 17, 2016, between Security National Life and Reppond Holding, which was later amended on March 4 and 17, 2016, Security National Life paid a total of $6,753,000 at the closing in consideration for the purchase of all the outstanding shares of stock of Reppond Holding from its shareholders.
The fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed are subject to adjustment during the first twelve months after the acquisition date if additional information becomes available to indicate a more accurate or appropriate value for an asset or liability. As the acquisition was completed at quarter end, the fair values of substantially all of the net assets are considered preliminary.
The estimated fair values of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed at the date of acquisition were as follows:

Fixed maturity securities, held to maturity |  | $ | 43,878,084 |
Equity securities, available for sale |  |  | 646,335 |
Mortgage loans on real estate |  |  | 4,528,582 |
Real estate held for investment |  |  | 528,947 |
Policy loans |  |  | 145,953 |
Short-term investments |  |  | 5,358,403 |
Accrued investment income |  |  | 585,985 |
Cash and cash equivalents |  |  | 2,424,480 |
Receivables |  |  | 73,347 |
Property and equipment |  |  | 21,083 |
Deferred tax asset |  |  | 1,190,862 |
Receivable from reinsurers |  |  | 34,948 |
Other |  |  | 57,768 |
Total assets acquired |  |  | 59,474,777 |
Future life, annuity, and other benefits |  |  | (52,648,838 | )
Accounts payable |  |  | (6,953 | )
Other liabilities and accrued expenses |  |  | (65,986 | )
Total liabilities assumed |  |  | (52,721,777 | )
Fair value of net assets acquired/consideration paid |  | $ | 6,753,000 |

The estimated fair value of the fixed maturity securities and the equity securities is based on unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets in an active market. These types of financial assets are considered Level 1 under the fair value hierarchy. The estimated fair value of future life, annuity, and other benefits is based on assumptions of the future value of the business acquired. Based on the unobservable nature of certain of these assumptions, the valuation for these financial liabilities is considered to be Level 3 under the fair value hierarchy. The Company determined that the estimated fair value of the remaining assets and liabilities acquired approximated their book values. The fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed are subject to adjustment during the first twelve months after the acquisition date if additional information becomes available to indicate a more accurate or appropriate value for an asset or liability.

Acquisition of American Funeral Financial
On June 4, 2014, the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary, SNFC Subsidiary, LLC ("SNFC Subsidiary"), completed a purchase transaction with American Funeral Financial, LLC, a South Carolina limited liability company ("American Funeral Financial") and Hypershop, LLC, a North Carolina limited liability company ("Hypershop"), the sole owner of all the limited liability company interests of American Funeral Financial, to purchase all of the outstanding limited liability company interests, or membership units, of American Funeral Financial. American Funeral Financial is engaged in the operation of a factoring business with the principal purpose of providing funding for funeral homes and mortuaries.
Under the terms of the transaction, as set forth in the Unit Purchase Agreement dated June 4, 2014 (the "Purchase Agreement"), among the Company, SNFC Subsidiary, American Funeral Financial and Hypershop, the Company paid Hypershop purchase consideration equal to (i) $3,000,000 in cash, of which $175,000 was deposited into an interest bearing escrow account to be held for a period of twelve months from the closing date to pay off the indebtedness and other liabilities of American Funeral Financial, plus (ii) $12,011,183, representing the amount of the good standing receivables of American Funeral Financial, plus (iii) earn-out payments equal to .0042 of the aggregate amount of life insurance assignments funded by American Funeral Financial during the three year period following the closing date of the transaction. This earn-out liability was estimated to be $1,368,000. The purchase consideration was to be used to pay off the indebtedness that American Funeral Financial owed to Security Finance Corporation of Spartanburg, as well as to pay off all other indebtedness and liabilities of American Funeral Financial.
The estimated fair values of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed at the date of acquisition were as follows:

Other investments, net |  | $ | 11,866,193 |
Property and equipment |  |  | 760,120 |
Goodwill |  |  | 2,373,722 |
Other |  |  | 1,379,158 |
Total assets acquired |  |  | 16,379,193 |
Other liabilities and accrued expenses |  |  | (1,368,000 | )
Total liabilities assumed |  |  | (1,368,000 | )
Fair value of net assets acquired |  | $ | 15,011,193 |

The estimated fair value of the acquisition is based on market assumptions of the future value of the business acquired, the collectability of receivables, the current value of equipment purchased and the useful life of proprietary software. Based on the unobservable nature of certain of these assumptions, the valuation is considered Level 3 under the fair value hierarchy.

The Company reports these MSRs pursuant to the accounting policy discussed in Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. The following table summarizes the Company's estimate of future amortization of its existing MSRs carried at amortized cost. This projection was developed using the assumptions made by management in its December 31, 2016 valuation of MSRs. The assumptions underlying the following estimate will change as market conditions and portfolio composition and behavior change, causing both actual and projected amortization levels to change over time. Therefore, the following estimates will change in a manner and amount not presently determinable by management.

|  | Estimated MSR Amortization |
2017 |  | $ | 2,696,052 |
2018 |  |  | 2,696,052 |

21) Correction of Errors
The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements include the restatement of the Company's previously filed consolidated balance sheets and the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders' equity and cash flows for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2014, December 31, 2015, and December 31, 2016. For the revised quarterly results of operations for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2014, 2015 and 2016, see "Impact of Restatement Adjustments on Quarterly Financial Statements (Unaudited)" in Note 22 of the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements.
Immaterial Error in Accounting for Loan Commitments: Subsequent to the issuance of the company's 2015 consolidated financial statements, the Company identified an error in the accounting for its loan commitments ("Adjustment A"). The Company corrected the presentation of the changes in fair value of its loan commitments to present them as a component of current earnings instead of as a component of other comprehensive income, as previously reported. The Company's management has concluded that the effect of the correction is not material to any previously issued Consolidated Financial Statements.
Subsequent to the issuance of the company's 2016 Consolidated Financial Statements, the Company identified the following errors, ("Adjustments B"):
Material Error in Accounting for Repurchase Agreements: The Company has concluded it should account for its Repurchase Agreements with unaffiliated banks as "On-Balance-Sheet" transactions, rather than as "Off-Balance-Sheet" as previously reported. Accordingly, the Company will reflect any outstanding loans as Loans Held for Sale and the corresponding debt as a Bank Loan Payable. The Company has corrected its sale accounting practice to defer revenue and costs on loans that remain as Held for Sale. The Company will recognize these deferred items at the time the loan is purchased by the ultimate investor.
Material Error in Accounting for Tax Valuation Allowance: The Company determined that it should have reversed its valuation allowance in its entirety in 2012 when the Company no longer qualified for the small life insurance company deduction, rather than in other periods as previously reported.
Other Immaterial Corrections and Reclassifications: In addition, the Company has recorded the following additional corrections in the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements:

1. | Reclassification of Receivables to Loans Held for Sale
2. | Reclassification of the Provision for Loan Loss Reserve to net against Mortgage Fee Income
3. | Correction to Future Life, Annuity and Other Benefits to reverse a deferred profit liability

Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure
None
Item 9A. Controls and Procedures
Under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the Company has evaluated the effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures as required by Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(b) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that certain disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.
(a) Management's annual report on internal control over financial reporting.
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. The Company's internal control over financial reporting is a process that is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and includes those policies and procedures that:

· | Pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of assets of the Company,
· | Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and the Board of Directors of the Company, and
· | Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the Company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Management has identified two material weaknesses in the Company's internal controls over financial reporting as of December 31, 2016 as follows:

· | The Company's controls related to the review and approval of invoices, including the evaluation of the timing of services/products, to provide for proper accounting for obligations did not operate effectively. As a result of the control deficiency, a material progress bill concerning work performed and corresponding retainage from a contractor for a building project was not recorded in the Company's accounting records on a timely basis.
· | The Company's review controls over complex accounting matters to properly identify and apply relevant accounting standards did not operate effectively, which resulted in the three errors discussed below.
| 1. | The use by SecurityNational Mortgage, a subsidiary, of interest rate lock commitments and forward sale mandatory delivery commitments are both considered derivatives under Accounting Standards Codification 815, Derivatives and Hedging. These mortgage banking derivatives are complex financial instruments that are required to be recorded at fair value. The Company, which had previously recorded the changes in fair value of mortgage banking derivatives through other comprehensive income, should have recorded such changes in current period earnings.
| 2. | The Warehouse Line Repurchase Agreements ("Repurchase Agreements") had been previously treated as off-balance sheet financing. A subsequent review determined that these Repurchase Agreements did not qualify for "true sale" accounting and that the loans and related debt should be recorded as assets and liabilities of the Company.
| 3. | The Company's valuation allowance of deferred tax assets should have been reversed in an earlier period.

The Company restated its consolidated financial statements to correct errors resulting from these material weaknesses.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies and procedures may deteriorate.
101

Management performed an assessment of the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2016 based on the framework in "Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013)" issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. The objective of this assessment was to determine whether the Company's internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2016. Based on that assessment management believes that at December 31, 2016, the Company's internal control over financial reporting was not effective for reason of the material weaknesses noted above.
This annual report on internal control over financial reporting does not include an attestation report of the Company's registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management's report was not subject to attestation by the Company's registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management's report in this annual report.
(b) Changes in internal control over financial reporting.
Except for the material weaknesses discussed above, there have not been any significant changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) in the fourth quarter of 2016 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Remediation Efforts to Address Material Weakness
During the fourth quarter of 2016, there were changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Two of the prior errors were determined to be immaterial errors and were noted in connection with the annual audit of the Company's consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016. The other two errors were discovered as a result of a review of current accounting policies and were determined to be material errors. Management has corrected these errors in this Form 10-K/A for the fiscal year ended December 2016. See Notes 21 and 22 to the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements.
The Company is implementing measures to remediate the underlying causes that gave rise to the material weaknesses. The following remediation steps are among the measures currently being implemented at the time of this filing by management: (i) a thorough review of the accounting department to ensure that the staff has the appropriate training and the level of reviews are commensurate with the complexity of the accounting; and (ii) a thorough review of the processes and procedures used in the Company's accounting policies and the implementation of those policies.
The Company believes the measures described above will remediate the control deficiencies that it has identified and strengthen its internal control over financial reporting. The Company is committed to continuous improvement of its internal control processes and will continue to diligently review its financial reporting controls and procedures.

Mr. Quist's significant expertise and deep understanding of the technical, organizational and strategic business aspects of the insurance industry, his management expertise, his 14 year tenure as President of the Company and 30 year tenure as a director, and his years of business and leadership experience led the Board of Directors to conclude that he should be appointed as Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of the Company.
Jason G. Overbaugh has served as Vice President of the Company since 2002. He has also served as a director of the Company since July 2013.

Mr. Quist has additionally served as the Company's Associate General Counsel since 2007, where his responsibilities have included the Company's regulatory matters and acquisitions.

As a director, Mr. Cook advises the Board regarding the Company's investments in commercial and residential real estate projects. Moreover, Mr. Cook's extensive background in construction and building is important as the Company continues to acquire new real estate holdings and develop its current portfolio of undeveloped land into future developments that could provide additional long term revenues for the Company.
103

Gilbert A. Fuller has served as a director of the Company since December 2012. From 2006 until his retirement in 2008, Mr. Fuller served as Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Secretary of USANA Health Sciences, Inc., a multinational manufacturer and direct seller of nutritional supplements.

Mr. Fuller obtained his certified public accountant license in 1970 and kept it current until his career path developed into corporate finance. Mr. Fuller received a B.S. degree in Accounting and an M.B.A. degree from the University of Utah. Mr. Fuller's accounting, finance and corporate strategy expertise and his years of financial, accounting and business experience in public and private companies, including USANA Health Sciences, Inc., which is listed on the New York Stock Exchange, where he served as an executive officer and continues to serve as a director, led the Board of Directors to conclude that he should serve as a director.
Robert G. Hunter, M.D. has served as a director of the Company since 1998. Dr. Hunter is currently a practicing physician in private practice. Dr. Hunter created the statewide E.N.T. Organization (Rocky Mountain E.N.T., Inc.) where he is currently a member of the Executive Committee.

Dr. Hunter holds a B.S. degree in Microbiology from the University of Utah and received his medical degree from the University of Utah College of Medicine. Dr. Hunter's medical expertise and experience, and his administrative and leadership experience from serving in a number of administrative positions in the medical profession led the Board of Directors to conclude that he should serve as a director.
H. Craig Moody has served as a director of the Company since 1995. Mr. Moody is owner of Moody & Associates, a political consulting and real estate company. He is a former Speaker and House Majority Leader of the House of Representatives of the State of Utah. Mr. Moody holds a B.S. degree in Political Science from the University of Utah. Mr. Moody's real estate and governmental affairs expertise and years of business and leadership experience led the Board of Directors to conclude that he should serve as a director.
Norman G. Wilbur has served as a director of the Company since 1998. Mr. Wilbur worked for J.C. Penny's regional offices in budget and analysis. His final position was Manager of Planning and Reporting for J.C. Penny's stores. After 36 years with J.C. Penny's, Mr. Wilbur opted for early retirement in 1997. Mr. Wilbur holds a B.S. degree in Accounting from the University of Utah. Mr. Wilbur is a past executive director of the Dallas area Habitat for Humanity. Mr. Wilbur's financial expertise and business experience from a successful career at JC Penny's led the Board of Directors to conclude that he should serve as a director. In addition, the Board of Directors' determination that Mr. Wilbur is the Audit Committee "financial expert" lends further support to his financial acumen and qualification for serving as a director.
The Board of Directors, Board Committees and Meetings
The Company's Bylaws provide that the Board of Directors shall consist of not less than five or more than twelve members. The term of office of each director is for a period of one year or until the election and qualification of his successor.

Each of the directors attended 75% or more of the meetings of the Board of Directors during the 2016 fiscal year.
The size of the Board of Directors of the Company for the coming year is eight members. A majority of the Board of Directors must qualify as "independent" as that term is defined in Rule 4200 of the listing standards of the Nasdaq Stock Market. The Board of Directors has affirmatively determined that five of the eight members of the Board of Directors, Messrs. John L. Cook, Gilbert A. Fuller, Robert G. Hunter, M.D., H. Craig Moody and Norman G. Wilbur, are independent under the listing standards of the Nasdaq Stock Market.
There are four committees of the Board of Directors, which meet periodically during the year: the Audit Committee, the Compensation Committee, the Executive Committee, and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee.

Craig Moody, S. Andrew Quist and Scott M. Quist (Chairman of the committee). During 2016, the Executive Committee met on one occasion.
The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee identifies individuals qualified to become board members consistent with criteria approved by the board, recommends to the board the persons to be nominated by the board for election as directors at a meeting of stockholders, and develops and recommends to the board a set of corporate governance principles. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee consists of Messrs. John L. Cook, Gilbert A. Fuller, Robert G. Hunter, M.D., H. Craig Moody (Chairman of the committee), and Norman G. Wilbur. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is composed solely of independent directors, as defined in the listing standards of the Nasdaq Stock Market. During 2016, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee met on two occasions.
Director Nominating Process
The process for identifying and evaluating nominees for directors include the following steps: (1) the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, Chairman of the Board or other board members identify a need to fill vacancies or add newly created directorships; (2) the Chairman of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee initiates a search and seeks input from board members and senior management and, if necessary, obtains advice from legal or other advisors (but does not hire an outside search firm); (3) director candidates, including any candidates properly proposed by stockholders in accordance with the Company's Bylaws, are identified and presented to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee; (4) initial interviews with candidates are conducted by the Chairman of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee; (5) the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee meets to consider and approve final candidate(s) and conduct further interviews as necessary; and (6) the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee makes recommendations to the board for inclusion in the slate of directors at the annual meeting. The evaluation process will be the same whether the nominee is recommended by a stockholder or by a member of the Board of Directors.
Meetings of Non-Management Directors
The Company's independent directors meet regularly in executive session without management. The Board of Directors has designated a lead director to preside at executive sessions of independent directors. Mr. H. Craig Moody is currently the lead director.

Retirement Plans
On December 8, 1988, the Company entered into a deferred compensation plan with George R. Quist, the former Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company. The plan was later amended on three occasions with the third amendment effective February 1, 2001. Under the terms of the plan as amended, upon the retirement of Mr. Quist, the Company is required to pay him ten annual installments in the amount of $60,000. The $60,000 annual payments were adjusted for inflation in accordance with the United States Consumer Price Index each year.
The plan also provided that the Board of Directors may in its discretion pay the amounts due under the plan in a single, lump-sum payment. Mr. Quist passed away on September 6, 2012. Pursuant to the plan, a single, lump-sum payment of $598,426 was paid to his estate on December 31, 2015.
Employment Agreements
Employment Agreement with Scott M. Quist
On July 16, 2004, the Company entered into an employment agreement with Scott M. Quist, its Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer. The agreement is effective as of December 4, 2003 and has a five-year term, but the Company agreed to renew the agreement on December 4, 2008 and 2013 for additional five-year terms, provided Mr. Quist performs his duties with usual and customary care and diligence. Under the terms of the agreement, Mr. Quist is to devote his full time to the Company serving as its Chairman of the Board, President, and Chief Executive Officer at not less than his current salary and benefits. The Company also agrees to maintain a group term life insurance policy of not less than $1,000,000 on Mr. Quist's life and a whole life insurance policy in the amount of $500,000 on Mr. Quist's life. In the event of disability, Mr. Quist's salary would be continued for up to five years at 75% of its current level.
In the event of a sale or merger of the Company and Mr. Quist is not retained in his current position, the Company would be obligated to continue paying Mr. Quist's current compensation and benefits for seven years following the merger or sale. The agreement further provides that Mr. Quist is entitled to receive annual retirement benefits beginning (i) one month from the date of his retirement (to commence no sooner than age 65), (ii) five years following complete disability, or (iii) upon termination of his employment without cause. These retirement benefits are to be paid for a period of twenty years in annual installments in the amount equal to 75% of his then current rate of compensation. However, in the event that Mr. Quist dies prior to receiving all retirement benefits thereunder, the remaining benefits are to be paid to his heirs. The Company expensed $511,443, $999,961 and $833,183 during the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, respectively, to cover the present value of anticipated retirement benefits under the employment agreement.

Employee 401(k) Retirement Savings Plan
In 1995, the Company's Board of Directors adopted a 401(k) Retirement Savings Plan. Under the terms of the 401(k) plan, effective as of January 1, 1995, the Company made discretionary employer matching contributions to its employees who choose to participate in the plan. The plan allowed the board to determine the amount of the contribution at the end of each year. During the period from January 1, 1995 to December 31, 2007 the Board had adopted a contribution formula specifying that such discretionary employer matching contributions would equal 50% of the participating employee's contribution to the plan to purchase the Company's stock up to a maximum discretionary employee contribution of 1/2 of 1% of participating employees' compensation, as defined by the plan.
All persons who have completed at least one year's service with the Company and satisfy other plan requirements are eligible to participate in the 401(k) plan. All Company matching contributions are invested in the Company's Class A common stock. Also, the Company may contribute at the discretion of the Company's Board of Directors an Employer Profit Sharing Contribution to the 401(k) plan. The Employer Profit Sharing Contribution is to be divided among three different classes of participants in the plan based upon the participant's title in the Company. All amounts contributed to the plan are deposited into a trust fund administered by an independent trustee.
Beginning January 1, 2008, the Company elected to be a "Safe Harbor" Plan for its matching 401(k) contributions. The Company will match 100% of up to 3% of an employee's total annual compensation and 50% of 4% to 5% of an employee's annual compensation. The match is in shares of the Company's Class A common stock. The Company's contribution for 2016, 2015 and 2014 was $1,429,962, $1,197,236 and $899,850 respectively, under the "Safe Harbor" plan.
Employee Stock Ownership Plan
Effective January 1, 1980, the Company adopted an employee stock ownership plan (the "ESOP Plan") for the benefit of career employees of the Company and its subsidiaries. The following is a description of the ESOP Plan, and is qualified in its entirety by the ESOP Plan, a copy of which is available for inspection at the Company's offices.
Under the ESOP Plan, the Company has discretionary power to make contributions on behalf of all eligible employees into a trust created under the ESOP Plan. Employees become eligible to participate in the ESOP Plan when they have attained the age of 19 and have completed one year of service (a twelve‑month period in which the Employee completes at least 1,040 hours of service). The Company's contributions under the ESOP Plan are allocated to eligible employees on the same ratio that each eligible employee's compensation bears to total compensation for all eligible employees during each year. To date, the ESOP Plan has approximately 298 participants and had $-0- contributions payable to the Plan in 2016. Benefits under the ESOP Plan vest as follows: 20% after the second year of eligible service by an employee, an additional 20% in the third, fourth, fifth and sixth years of eligible service by an employee.
Benefits under the ESOP Plan will be paid out in one lump sum or in installments in the event the employee becomes disabled, reaches the age of 65, or is terminated by the Company and demonstrates financial hardship. The ESOP Plan Committee, however, retains discretion to determine the final method of payment. Finally, the Company reserves the right to amend or terminate the ESOP Plan at any time. The trustees of the trust fund under the ESOP Plan are Scott M. Quist (Chairman), S. Andrew Quist, and Robert G. Hunter, who each serve as a director of the Company.

Deferred Compensation Plan
In 2001, the Company's Board of Directors adopted a Deferred Compensation Plan. Under the terms of the Deferred Compensation Plan, the Company will provide deferred compensation for a select group of management or highly compensated employees, within the meaning of Sections 201(2), 301(a)(3) and 401(a)(1) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended. The board has appointed a committee of the Company to be the plan administrator and to determine the employees who are eligible to participate in the plan. The employees who participate may elect to defer a portion of their compensation into the plan. The Company may contribute into the plan at the discretion of the Company's Board of Directors. The Company did not make any contributions for 2016, 2015 and 2014.

2006 Director Stock Option Plan
On December 7, 2006, the Company adopted the 2006 Director Stock Option Plan (the "2006 Director Plan") effective December 7, 2006. The 2006 Director Plan provides for the grant by the Company of options to purchase up to an aggregate of 100,000 shares of Class A common stock for issuance there under. The 2006 Director Plan provides that each member of the Company's Board of Directors who is not an employee or paid consultant of the Company is automatically eligible to receive options to purchase the Company's Class A common stock under the 2006 Director Plan.
Effective as of December 7, 2006, and on each anniversary date thereof during the term of the 2006 Director Plan, each outside director shall automatically receive an option to purchase 1,000 shares of Class A common stock. In addition, each new outside director who shall first join the Board after the effective date shall be granted an option to purchase 1,000 shares upon the date which such person first becomes an outside director and an annual grant of an option to purchase 1,000 shares on each anniversary date thereof during the term of the 2006 Director Plan. The options granted to outside directors shall vest in four equal quarterly installments over a one year period from the date of grant, until such shares are fully vested. The primary purposes of the 2006 Director Plan are to enhance the Company's ability to attract and retain well-qualified persons for service as directors and to provide incentives to such directors to continue their association with the Company.
In the event of a merger of the Company with or into another company, or a consolidation, acquisition of stock or assets or other change in control transaction involving the Company, each option becomes exercisable in full, unless such option is assumed by the successor corporation. In the event the transaction is not approved by a majority of the "Continuing Directors" (as defined in the 2006 Director Plan), each option becomes fully vested and exercisable in full immediately prior to the consummation of such transaction, whether or not assumed by the successor corporation.

Amended 2013 Stock Option Plan
On August 24, 2013, the Company adopted the Security National Financial Corporation 2013 Stock Option Plan (the "2013 Plan"), which reserved 450,000 shares of Class A common stock to be made available for issuance thereunder, of which up to 150,000 shares of Class C common stock could be issued in place of up to 150,000 shares of Class A common stock. The 2013 Plan provides for the grant of options and the award or sale of stock to officers, directors, and employees of the Company. Both "incentive stock options", as defined under Section 422A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 and "non-qualified options" may be granted under the 2013 Plan. On July 1, 2015, the stockholders approved an amendment to the 2013 Plan to authorize an additional 450,000 shares of Class A common stock under the Plan, of which up to 200,000 Class C common shares may be issued in place of up to 200,000 shares of Class A common stock.
The 2013 Plan is to be administered by the Board of Directors or by a committee designated by the Board. The terms of options granted or stock awards or sales affected under the 2013 Plan are to be determined by the Board of Directors or its committee. No options may be exercised for a term of more than ten years from the date of the grant. Options intended as incentive stock options may be issued only to employees, and must meet certain conditions imposed by the Internal Revenue Code, including a requirement that the option exercise price be no less than the fair market value of the option shares on the date of grant. The 2013 Plan provides that the exercise price for non-qualified options will not be less than at least 50% of the fair market value of the stock subject to such option as of the date of grant of such options, as determined by the Company's Board of Directors.
On December 4, 2015, the Board of Directors approved a resolution to amend the Company's 2013 Stock Option Plan to include additional equity incentive awards. These additional incentive awards in the amended plan consist of Stock Appreciation Rights (SARs), Restricted Stock Units (RSUs) and Performance Share Awards. Stock Appreciation Rights are awards that entitle the recipient to receive cash or stock equal to the excess of the Company's stock price on the date the SAR is exercised over the Company's stock price on the date the SAR was granted times the number of shares of stock with respect to which the SAR is exercised. Restricted Stock Units entitle the recipient to receive RSUs that require the Company on the distribution dates to transfer to the recipient one unrestricted, fully transferable share of stock for each RSU scheduled to be paid out on that date. Performance Share Awards entitle the recipient to receive stock based on the Company meeting certain performance goals.
The 2013 Plan has a term of ten years. The Board of Directors may amend or terminate the 2013 Plan at any time, from time to time, subject to approval of certain modifications to the 2013 Plan by the stockholders of the Company as may be required by law or the 2013 Plan.
2014 Director Stock Option Plan
On May 16, 2014, the Company adopted the 2014 Director Stock Option Plan (the "2014 Director Plan"). The 2014 Director Plan provides for the grant by the Company of options to purchase up to an aggregate of 150,000 shares of Class A common stock for issuance there under. The 2014 Director Plan provides that each member of the Company's Board of Directors who is not an employee or paid consultant of the Company is automatically eligible to receive options to purchase the Company's Class A common stock under the 2014 Director Plan.
On December 7, 2014, and on each anniversary date thereof during the term of the 2014 Director Plan, each outside director shall automatically receive an option to purchase 1,000 shares of Class A common stock. In addition, each new outside director who shall first join the Board after the effective date shall be granted an option to purchase 1,000 shares upon the date which such person first becomes an outside director and an annual grant of an option to purchase 1,000 shares on each anniversary date thereof during the term of the 2014 Director Plan. The options granted to outside directors shall vest in four equal quarterly installments over a one year period from the date of grant, until such shares are fully vested. The primary purposes of the 2014 Director Plan are to enhance the Company's ability to attract and retain well-qualified persons for service as directors and to provide incentives to such directors to continue their association with the Company.
In the event of a merger of the Company with or into another company, or a consolidation, acquisition of stock or assets or other change in control transaction involving the Company, each option becomes exercisable in full, unless such option is assumed by the successor corporation. In the event the transaction is not approved by a majority of the "Continuing Directors" (as defined in the 2014 Director Plan), each option becomes fully vested and exercisable in full immediately prior to the consummation of such transaction, whether or not assumed by the successor corporation.

Stock Purchase Plan
On September 11, 2015, the Board approved the Security National Financial Corporation Stock Purchase Plan for the mutual benefit of the Company and its stockholders. Under the terms of the Plan, the Company may, in its discretion, purchase shares of Class A common stock from its officers and directors who exercise the stock options granted to them under any of the Company's stock option plans with the proceeds from such purchase to be used to pay the taxes owed by such officers and directors as a result of the exercise of their stock options. Additionally, the officers and directors who exercise their stock options may, in their discretion, request that the Company purchase shares of their Class A common stock with the proceeds from such sale to be used to pay the taxes owed by such officers and directors as a result of the exercise of their stock options.
The Company is authorized under the plan to purchase no more than 60,000 shares of Class A common stock in any calendar year to pay the taxes owed by the officers and directors who exercise their stock options under the Stock Purchase Plan. The Company's purchase price for the Class A common stock under the Stock Purchase Plan shall be equal to the closing sales price of the Company's Class A common stock as reported by The Nasdaq National Market on the day that the applicable stock options are exercised by such officers and directors. The Company may only purchase shares of Class A common stock from the officers and directors exercising their stock options under the Stock Purchase Plan during the "Trading Window" as defined in the Company's Insider Trading Policy and Guidelines.
Compliance with Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, requires the Company's executive officers, directors and persons who own more than 10% of a registered class of the Company's equity securities to file reports of ownership and periodic changes in ownership of the Company's common stock with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Such persons are also required to furnish the Company with copies of all Section 16(a) reports they file.
Based solely on its review of the copies of stock reports received by it with respect to fiscal 2016, or written representations from certain reporting persons, the Company believes that its directors, executive officers and greater than 10% beneficial owners complied with all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to them, except that each of the Company's officers and directors, through an oversight, filed one late Form 4 report disclosing the granting of stock options on December 2, 2016.

The Company has a $2,000,000 revolving line-of-credit with a bank with interest payable at the prime rate minus .75% (3.00% at December 31, 2016), secured by the capital stock of Security National Life and maturing September 30, 2017, renewable annually. At December 31, 2016, the Company was contingently liable under a standby letter of credit aggregating $560,350, to be used as collateral to cover any contingency related to additional risk assessments pertaining to the Company's captive insurance program and under a standby letter of credit aggregating $48,220 issued as a security deposit to guarantee payment of final bills for electric and gas utility services for a commercial real estate property owned by the Company in Wichita, Kansas. The Company does not expect any material losses to result from the issuance of the standby letter of credit because claims are not expected to exceed premiums paid. As of December 31, 2016, there were no amounts outstanding under the revolving line-of-credit.
