Cemetery Perpetual Care Trust Investments and Obligation

 

State law requires the Company to pay into endowment care trusts a portion of the proceeds from the sale of certain cemetery property interment rights for cemeteries that have established an endowment care trust. These endowment care trusts are defined as Variable Interest Entities pursuant to GAAP. The Company is the primary beneficiary of these trusts, as it absorbs both the losses and any expenses associated with the trusts. The Company has consolidated cemetery endowment care trust investments with a corresponding amount recorded as Cemetery Perpetual Care Obligation in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

 

The components of cemetery perpetual care investments and obligation as of March 31, 2025, are as follows:

 

   Amortized Cost   Gross Unrealized Gains   Gross Unrealized Losses   Estimated Fair Value

No credit losses have been recognized for the three month periods ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, since the increase in unrealized losses is primarily a result of increases in interest rates.

The table below presents the amortized cost and estimated fair value of fixed maturity securities available for sale as of March 31, 2024, by contractual maturity.
