Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

June 30, 2017 (Unaudited)

1) Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10‑Q and Articles 8 and 10 of Regulation S‑X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements of the Company and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2016, included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K/A (file number 000-09341). In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the six months ended June 30, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2017. The presentation of certain amounts in the prior year have been reclassified to conform to the 2017 presentation. See additional discussion regarding correction of errors in Notes 21 and 22 included in the Company's Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2016.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

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.

2) 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, which is not expected to be material to the Company's results of operations but will have an effect on the balance sheet presentation.

ASU No. 2016-02: "Leases (Topic 842)" - Issued in February 2016, ASU 2016-02 supersedes the 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, which is not expected to be material to the Company's results of operations but will have an effect on the balance sheet presentation for leased assets and obligations.

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 Company holds equity securities classified as available for sale securities that are currently measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized through other comprehensive income. Upon adoption of ASU 2016-01 the Company will be required to recognize changes in the fair value of these equity securities through earnings, thus increasing the volatility of the Company's earnings. However, adoption of this standard will not significantly affect the Company's comprehensive income or stockholders' equity. See Note 3 for details regarding the Company's equity securities currently classified as available for sale. This new authoritative guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with the cumulative effect of the adoption made to the balance sheet as of the date of adoption. Thus, the adoption will result in a reclassification of the related accumulated net unrealized gains (losses) currently included in accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings. The Company will adopt this standard beginning January 1, 2018.

2) Recent Accounting Pronouncements (Continued)

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". ASU 2014-09 clarifies the principles for recognizing revenue in order to improve comparability of revenue recognition practices across entities and industries. ASU 2014-09 provides guidance intended to assist in the identification of contracts with customers and separate performance obligations within those contracts, the determination and allocation of the transaction price to those identified performance obligations and the recognition of revenue when a performance obligation has been satisfied. ASU 2014-09 also requires disclosures regarding the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenues and cash flows from contracts with customers. Insurance contracts are excluded from the scope of this new guidance.

Upon adoption, ASU 2014-09 provides for transition through either a full retrospective approach requiring the restatement of all presented prior periods or a modified retrospective approach, which allows the new recognition standard to be applied to only those contracts that are not completed at the date of transition. If the modified retrospective approach is adopted, a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings is performed with additional disclosures required including the amount by which each line item is affected by the transition as compared to the guidance in effect before adoption and an explanation of the reasons for significant changes in these amounts. The Company intends to adopt ASU 2014-09 using the modified retrospective method. The Company does not expect to record a cumulative effect adjustment to its beginning retained earnings as a result of adoption of ASU 2014-09.

The Company's revenues from contracts with customers that are subject to ASU 2014-09 include mortgage servicing fees and revenues on mortuary and cemetery contracts. The recognition and measurement of these items is not expected to change as a result of the Company's adoption of ASU 2014-09 and thus the Company does not expect that the adoption of ASU 2014-09 will significantly impact the Company's results of operations or financial position but is still in the process of evaluating the final impact. The new authoritative guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company will adopt this standard beginning January 1, 2018.

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.

There were 151 securities with an average fair value of 95.3% of amortized cost at June 30, 2017. There were 250 securities with an average fair value of 93.9% of amortized cost at December 31, 2016. During the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 an other than temporary decline in fair value resulted in the recognition of credit losses on fixed maturity securities of $266,227 and $30,000, respectively, and for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 an other than temporary decline in fair value resulted in the recognition of credit losses on fixed maturity securities of $318,366 and $60,000, 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.

Equity Securities

The following tables summarize unrealized losses on equity securities that were carried at estimated fair value based on quoted trading prices at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016. The unrealized losses were primarily the result of decreases in fair value due to overall equity market declines. The tables set forth unrealized losses by duration and number of investment positions, together with the fair value of the related equity securities available for sale in a loss position:

	Unrealized Losses for Less than Twelve Months		No. of Investment Positions		Unrealized Losses for More than Twelve Months		No. of Investment Positions		Total Unrealized Losses
At June 30, 2017
Industrial, miscellaneous and all other	$	175,601		137	$	683,771		84	$	859,372

Fair Value	$	2,063,144			$	1,685,874			$	3,749,018

The average fair value of the equity securities available for sale was 75.0% and 81.4% of the original investment as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, 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 three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, an other than temporary decline in the fair value resulted in the recognition of no impairment loss on equity securities and for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, an other than temporary decline in the fair value resulted in the recognition of an impairment loss on equity securities of $-0- and $43,630, respectively.

3) Investments (Continued)

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's net realized gains and losses and other than temporary impairments from investments and other assets, are summarized as follows:

Total	$	621,175		$	90,543		$	714,366		$	114,835

The carrying amount of held to maturity securities sold was $255,509 and $1,789,159 for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The net realized gain related to these sales was $39,374 and $156,171 for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Although the intent is to buy and hold a bond to maturity the Company will sell a bond prior to maturity if conditions have changed within the entity that issued the bond to increase the risk of default to an unacceptable level.

There were no investments, aggregated by issuer, in excess of 10% of shareholders' equity (before net unrealized gains and losses on available for sale equity securities) at June 30, 2017, other than investments issued or guaranteed by the United States Government.

Commercial Real Estate Held for Investment

The Company owns and manages commercial real estate assets as a means of generating investment income. These assets are acquired in accordance with the Company's goals and objectives for risk-adjusted returns. Due diligence is conducted on each asset using internal and third-party reports. Geographic locations and asset classes of the investment activity is determined by senior management under the direction of the Board of Directors.

The Company employs full-time employees to attend to the day-to-day operations of those assets within the greater Salt Lake area and close surrounding markets. The Company utilizes third party property managers when the geographic boundary does not warrant full-time staff or through strategic lease-up periods. The Company generally looks to acquire assets in regions that are high growth regions for employment and population and in assets that provide operational efficiencies.

The Company currently owns and operates 12 commercial properties in 7 states. These properties include industrial warehouses, office buildings, retail centers, undeveloped land and includes the redevelopment and expansion of its corporate campus in Salt Lake City, Utah. The assets are primarily held without debt; however, the Company does use debt in strategic cases to leverage established yields or to acquire higher quality or different class of asset.

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 June 30, 2017, the Company had 42%, 15%, 11%, 8%, 6%, 4% and 3% of its mortgage loans from borrowers located in the states of Utah, California, Texas, Florida, Arizona, Tennessee, and Nevada respectively. The mortgage loans on real estate balances on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet are reflected net of an allowance for loan losses of $1,921,028 and $1,748,783 at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.

Credit Risk Profile Based on Performance Status

The Company's mortgage loan portfolio is monitored based on performance of the loans. Monitoring a mortgage loan increases when the loan is delinquent or earlier if there is an indication of impairment. The Company defines non-performing mortgage loans as loans 90 days or greater delinquent or on non-accrual status.

The Company's performing and non-performing mortgage loans were as follows:

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 approximately $106,000 and $172,000 as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.

The following is a summary of mortgage loans on a nonaccrual 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 that is included in other liabilities and accrued expenses:

	As of June 30 2017			As of December 31 2016
Balance, beginning of period	$	627,733		$	2,805,900
Provision on current loan originations (1)		953,453			2,988,754
Additional provision for loan loss reserve		-			1,700,000
Charge-offs, net of recaptured amounts		(446,067	)		(6,866,921	)
Balance, end of period	$	1,135,119		$	627,733

(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.

4) Stock Compensation Plans

The Company has four fixed option plans (the "2003 Plan", the "2006 Director Plan", the "2013 Plan" and the "2014 Director Plan"). Compensation expense for options issued of $101,316 and $84,026 has been recognized for these plans for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, and $203,312 and $168,478 for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. As of June 30, 2017, the total unrecognized compensation expense related to the options issued was $172,148, which is expected to be recognized over the vesting period of one year.

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.

Employee stock options		330,588		363,348		344,388		412,348

Diluted weighted-average shares outstanding		15,492,277		15,111,324		15,454,507		15,114,535

Basic net earnings per share	$	0.16	$	0.34	$	0.29	$	0.51

Diluted net earnings per share	$	0.16	$	0.33	$	0.28	$	0.50

Net earnings per share amounts have been retroactively adjusted for the effect of annual stock dividends. For the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, there were 330,225 and 250,039 of anti-dilutive employee stock option shares, respectively, that were not included in the computation of diluted net earnings per common share as their effect would be anti-dilutive.

6) 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 of the Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2016. 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.

7) 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.

SECURITY NATIONAL FINANCIAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

June 30, 2017 (Unaudited)

7) Fair Value of Financial Instruments (Continued)

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 3 of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial 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 sheets 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 sheets 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.

The items shown under Level 3 are valued as follows:

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 sheets 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. The change in fair value of the underlying mortgage loan is measured from the date the loan commitment is issued. 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 their 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.

7) Fair Value of Financial Instruments (Continued)

Mortgage Loans on Real Estate : The Company believes that the fair value of impaired loans will approximate the unpaid principal balance. When determining the fair value of mortgage loans on real estate, 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 also considers area comparables and property condition when determining fair value.

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 also considers area comparables and property condition when determining fair value.

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.

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.

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 June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016. The estimated fair value amounts for June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 have been measured as of period-end, and have not been reevaluated or updated for purposes of these Condensed 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 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 2017 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.

7) Fair Value of Financial Instruments (Continued)

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 condensed 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 condensed 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 condensed consolidated balance sheet for these financial instruments approximate their fair values due to their relatively short-term maturities and variable rates.

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 1.5% 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 present value of liability cash flows.

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.

8) Allowance for Doubtful Accounts, Allowance for 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 3 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.

9) 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.

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. 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 a call option is exercised, the Company recognizes a gain on the sale of the equity security enhanced by the value of the option that was sold. If the option expires unexercised, the Company recognizes a gain from the sale of the option. In the event a put option is exercised, the Company acquires an equity security at the strike price of the option reduced by the value received from the sale of the put option. The equity security is then traded as a normal equity security in the Company's portfolio.

10) Reinsurance, Commitments and Contingencies

Reinsurance

The Company follows the procedure of reinsuring risks in excess of a specified limit, which ranges from $25,000 to $100,000. 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.

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 its potential losses on loans sold. The estimated liability for indemnification losses is included in other liabilities and accrued expenses and, as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the balances were $1,135,000 and $628,000, respectively.

10) Reinsurance, Commitments and Contingencies (Continued)

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 June 30, 2017, $653,627 of reserves was established related to such insurance programs versus $416,576 at December 31, 2016.

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.

12) 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 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
Accrued investment income		585,985
Cash and cash equivalents		7,782,883
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 were subject to adjustment during the first twelve months after the acquisition date if additional information became available to indicate a more accurate or appropriate value for an asset or liability. No adjustment is expected.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Overview

The Company's operations over the last several years generally reflect three trends or events which the Company expects to continue: (i) increased attention to "niche" insurance products, such as the Company's funeral plan policies and traditional whole life products; (ii) emphasis on cemetery and mortuary business; and (iii) capitalizing on relatively low interest rates by originating mortgage loans.

Insurance Operations

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.

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.

The following table shows the condensed financial results of the insurance operations for three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016. See Note 6 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

	Three months ended June 30 (in thousands of dollars)							Six months ended June 30 (in thousands of dollars)
	2017		2016		% Increase (Decrease)			2017		2016		% Increase (Decrease)
Revenues from external customers
Insurance premiums	$	17,498	$	15,899		10	%	$	34,855	$	30,351		15	%

Income from loan originations		282		613		(54	%)		1,470		1,085		35	%
Other		278		166		67	%		306		354		(14	%)
Total	$	25,723	$	23,570		9	%	$	51,882	$	45,645		14	%

Earnings before income taxes	$	2,819	$	2,542		11	%	$	4,302	$	3,646		18	%

Intersegment revenues are primarily interest income from the warehouse line provided to SecurityNational Mortgage Company ("SecurityNational Mortgage"). Profitability in the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 has increased due to increases in insurance premiums, mortgage fee income and net investment income.

Cemetery and Mortuary Operations

The Company sells mortuary services and products through its eight mortuaries in Utah. The Company also sells cemetery products and services through its five cemeteries in Utah and one cemetery in San Diego County, California. At-need product sales and services are recognized as revenue when the services are performed or when the products are delivered. Pre-need cemetery product sales are deferred until the merchandise is delivered and services performed. Recognition of revenue for cemetery land sales occurs when 10% of the purchase price is received.

The following table shows the condensed financial results of the Cemetery and Mortuary operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016. See Note 6 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Included in other revenue is rental income from residential and commercial properties purchased from Security National Life. Memorial Estates purchased these properties from financing provided by Security National Life. The rental income is offset by property insurance, taxes and maintenance expenses. Memorial Estates has recorded depreciation on these properties of $163,000 and $180,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, and $333,000 and $367,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

Mortgage Operations

Overview

The Company's wholly owned subsidiaries, SecurityNational Mortgage and EverLEND Mortgage Company (formerly known as Green Street Mortgage Services, Inc.), 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), 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 six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, SecurityNational Mortgage originated 6,551 loans ($1,271,565,000 total volume) and 7,413 loans ($1,414,207,000 total volume), respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, EverLEND Mortgage originated six loans ($1,202,000 total volume) and -0- loans ($-0- total volume), respectively.

The following table shows the condensed financial results of the mortgage operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016. See Note 6 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

	Three months ended June 30 (in thousands of dollars)							Six months ended June 30 (in thousands of dollars)

The decrease in earnings for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 was due to a reduction in mortgage 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 its potential losses on loans sold. The estimated liability for indemnification losses was included in other liabilities and accrued expenses and, as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the balances were $1,135,000 and $628,000, respectively.

Mortgage Loan Loss Litigation

For a description of the litigation involving SecurityNational Mortgage and Lehman Brothers Holdings, reference is to Part II, Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

Consolidation

Three Months Ended June 30, 2017 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2016

Total revenues decreased by $6,916,000, or 8.6%, to $73,171,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2017, from $80,087,000 for the comparable period in 2016. Contributing to this decrease in total revenues was a $9,878,000 decrease in mortgage fee income, a $240,000 decrease in net mortuary and cemetery sales, and a $236,000 increase in other than temporary impairments on investments. This decrease in total revenues was partially offset by a $1,599,000 increase in insurance premiums and other considerations, a $767,000 increase in realized gains on investments and other assets, a $612,000 increase in net investment income, and a $460,000 increase in other revenues.

Insurance premiums and other considerations increased by $1,599,000, or 10.1%, to $17,499,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2017, from $15,900,000 for the comparable period in 2016. This increase was primarily due to an increase in renewal premiums and an increase in first year premiums as a result of increased insurance sales.

Net investment income increased by $612,000, or 6.7%, to $9,748,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2017, from $9,136,000 for the comparable period in 2016. This increase was primarily attributable to a $422,000 increase in fixed maturity securities income, a $246,000 increase in rental income from real estate owned, a $154,000 increase in insurance assignment income, and a $62,000 increase in policy loan income. This increase was partially offset by a $101,000 increase in investment expenses, a $167,000 decrease in mortgage loan interest, and a $12,000 decrease in short-term investment income.

Net mortuary and cemetery sales decreased by $240,000, or 6.8%, to $3,280,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2017, from $3,520,000 for the comparable period in 2016. This decrease was primarily due to a decrease in sales in both the cemetery and mortuary operations.

Realized gains on investments and other assets increased by $767,000, or 636.2%, to $887,000 in realized gains for the three months ended June 30, 2017, from $120,000 in realized gains for the comparable period in 2016. This increase in realized gains on investments and other assets was primarily attributable to a $1,021,000 increase in realized gains on other assets due to the sale of a commercial real estate property and various residential real estate properties. This increase was partially offset by a $178,000 decrease in realized gains on fixed maturity securities, and a $76,000 decrease in realized gains on securities available for sale.

Mortgage fee income decreased by $9,878,000, or 19.8%, to $39,948,000, for the three months ended June 30, 2017, from $49,826,000 for the comparable period in 2016. This decrease was primarily due to a reduction in mortgage loan originations, which was a reflection of the mortgage loan industry as a whole. The decrease in mortgage loan originations was the result of a shortage of available housing for purchase transactions and the decline in mortgage loan refinancings as a consequence of recent increases in interest rates on mortgage loans.

Other revenues increased by $460,000, or 28.5%, to $2,076,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2017, from $1,616,000 for the comparable period in 2016. This increase was due to an increase in mortgage servicing fees.

Total benefits and expenses were $69,177,000, or 94.3% of total revenues, for the three months ended June 30, 2017, as compared to $72,101,000, or 90.0% of total revenues, for the comparable period in 2016.

Death benefits, surrenders and other policy benefits, and future policy benefits increased by an aggregate of $1,424,000 or 10.8%, to $14,593,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2017, from $13,169,000 for the comparable period in 2016. This increase was primarily the result of a $1,211,000 increase in death benefits, a $119,000 increase in surrender and other policy benefits, and a $94,000 increase in future policy benefits.

Amortization of deferred policy and pre-need acquisition costs and value of business acquired increased by $61,000, or 3.6%, to $1,769,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2017, from $1,708,000 for the comparable period in 2016. This increase was primarily due to an increase in insurance sales expenses.

Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased by $4,639,000, or 8.4%, to $50,898,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2017, from $55,537,000 for the comparable period in 2016. This decrease was primarily the result of a $6,086,000 decrease in commissions resulting from a decrease in sales, and a $484,000 decrease in advertising. This decrease was partially offset by a $929,000 increase in other expenses, a $382,000 increase in personnel expenses, a $327,000 increase in costs related to funding mortgage loans, a $248,000 increase in rent and rent related expenses, and a $45,000 increase in depreciation on property and equipment.

Interest expense increased by $150,000, or 12.2%, to $1,385,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2017, from $1,235,000 for the comparable period in 2016. This increase was primarily due to an increase in interest expense on mortgage warehouse lines.

Comprehensive income for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 amounted to gains of $2,442,000 and $5,030,000, respectively. This $2,588,000 decrease in comprehensive income was primarily the result of a $2,531,000 decrease in net income, and a $57,000 decrease in unrealized gains in securities available for sale.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2017 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2016

Total revenues decreased by $5,543,000, or 3.7%, to $144,001,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2017, from $149,544,000 for the comparable period in 2016. Contributing to this decrease in total revenues was a $12,662,000 decrease in mortgage fee income, a $215,000 increase in other than temporary impairments on investments, and a $127,000 decrease in net mortuary and cemetery sales. This decrease in total revenues was partially offset by $4,505,000 increase in insurance premiums and other considerations, a $1,183,000 increase in net investment income, a $959,000 increase in other revenues, and a $814,000 increase in realized gains on investments and other assets.

Insurance premiums and other considerations increased by $4,505,000, or 14.8%, to $34,856,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2017, from $30,351,000 for the comparable period in 2016. This increase was primarily due to an increase in renewal premiums and an increase in first year premiums as a result of increased insurance sales.

Net investment income increased by $1,183,000, or 6.5%, to $19,311,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2017, from $18,128,000 for the comparable period in 2016. This increase was primarily attributable to a $730,000 increase in fixed maturity securities income, a $419,000 increase in insurance assignment income, a $296,000 increase in rental income from real estate owned, a $74,000 increase in policy loan income, and a $34,000 increase in mortgage loan interest. This increase was partially offset by a $303,000 increase in investment expenses, and a $75,000 decrease in short-term investment income.

Net mortuary and cemetery sales decreased by $127,000, or 1.9%, to $6,639,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2017, from $6,766,000 for the comparable period in 2016. This decrease was primarily due to a decrease in sales in both the cemetery and mortuary operations.

Realized gains on investments and other assets increased by $814,000, or 372.7%, to $1,033,000 in realized gains for the six months ended June 30, 2017, from $219,000 in realized gains for the comparable period in 2016 This increase in realized gains on investments and other assets was primarily attributable to a $1,046,000 increase in realized gains on other assets due to the sale of a commercial real estate property and various residential real estate properties. This increase was partially offset by a $173,000 decrease in realized gains on fixed maturity securities, and a $59,000 decrease in realized gains on securities available for sale.

Mortgage fee income decreased by $12,662,000, or 13.9%, to $78,376,000, for the six months ended June 30, 2017, from $91,038,000 for the comparable period in 2016. This decrease was primarily due to a reduction in mortgage loan originations, which was a reflection of the mortgage loan industry as a whole. The decrease in mortgage loan originations was the result of a shortage of available housing for purchase transactions and the decline in mortgage loan refinancings as a consequence of recent increases in interest rates on mortgage loans.

Other revenues increased by $959,000, or 30.5%, to $4,105,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2017, from $3,146,000 for the comparable period in 2016. This increase was due to an increase in mortgage servicing fees.

Total benefits and expenses were $137,109,000, or 95.1% of total revenues, for the six months ended June 30, 2017, as compared to $137,487,000, or 91.9% of total revenues, for the comparable period in 2016.

Death benefits, surrenders and other policy benefits, and future policy benefits increased by an aggregate of $4,180,000 or 16.3%, to $29,813,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2017, from $25,633,000 for the comparable period in 2016. This increase was primarily the result of a $2,182,000 increase in death benefits, a $1,540,000 increase in future policy benefits, and a $458,000 increase in surrender and other policy benefits.

Amortization of deferred policy and pre-need acquisition costs and value of business acquired increased by $113,000, or 2.9%, to $4,033,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2017, from $3,920,000 for the comparable period in 2016. This increase was primarily due to an increase in insurance sales expenses.

Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased by $5,154,000, or 4.9%, to $99,569,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2017, from $104,723,000 for the comparable period in 2016. This decrease was primarily the result of a $8,942,000 decrease in commissions resulting from a decrease in sales, a $251,000 decrease in advertising, and a $86,000 decrease in costs related to funding mortgage loans. This increase was partially offset by a $1,879,000 increase in other expenses, a $1,774,000 increase in personnel expenses, a $323,000 increase in rent and rent related expenses, and a $149,000 increase in depreciation on property and equipment.

Interest expense increased by $340,000, or 14.8%, to $2,639,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2017, from $2,299,000 for the comparable period in 2016. This increase was primarily due to an increase in interest expense on mortgage warehouse lines.

Comprehensive income for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 amounted to gains of $4,323,000 and $7,867,000, respectively. This $3,544,000 decrease in comprehensive income was primarily the result of a $3,209,000 decrease in net income, and a $333,000 decrease in unrealized gains in securities available for sale.

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 six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company's operations provided cash of $20,042,000. This was due primarily to an increase in cash collected on loans held for sale. During the six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company's operations used cash of $11,694,000. This was due primarily to a decrease in cash collected 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 fair 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 that will persist during the expected duration of policyholder and cemetery and mortuary liabilities regardless of future interest rate movements.

The Company's investment policy is to invest predominantly in fixed maturity securities, 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 $192,585,000 and $184,356,000 as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. This represents 34.8% and 33.1% of the total investments as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, 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 June 30, 2017, 8.3% (or $15,919,000) and at December 31, 2016, 9.0% (or $16,513,000) of the Company's total bond investments were invested in bonds in rating categories three through six, which were considered non‑investment grade.

The Company has classified its fixed income securities, including high-yield securities, in its portfolio 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.

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 June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the life insurance subsidiaries were in compliance with the regulatory criteria.

The Company's total capitalization of stockholders' equity, bank loans and notes payable was $301,207,000 as of June 30, 2017, as compared to $284,700,000 as of December 31, 2016. Stockholders' equity as a percent of total capitalization was 45.7% and 46.6% as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.

Lapse rates measure the amount of insurance terminated during a particular period. The Company's lapse rate for life insurance in 2016 was 9.6% as compared to a rate of 7.4% for 2015. The 2017 lapse rate to date has been approximately the same as 2016.

At June 30, 2017, the statutory capital and surplus of the Company's life insurance subsidiaries was $43,453,000. The life insurance subsidiaries cannot pay a dividend to its parent company, without approval of state insurance regulatory authorities.

As a smaller reporting company, the Company is not required to provide information typically disclosed under this item.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of June 30, 2017, the Company carried out an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of its Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Chief Financial Officer (CFO), of the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). The Company's disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) reports that the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time period specified by the SEC's rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Company's CEO and CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. The officers have concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of June 30, 2017, and that the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q fairly present, in all material respects, the Company's financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented in conformity with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP).

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Except for the material weaknesses discussed in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10K/A, 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 second quarter of 2017 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 the 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.

Part II - Other Information

Item 1. Legal Proceedings .

Lehman Brothers Litigation – Delaware and New York

In January 2014, Lehman Brothers Holdings, Inc. ("Lehman Holdings") entered into a settlement with the Federal National Mortgage Association (Fannie Mae) concerning the mortgage loan claims that Fannie Mae had asserted against Lehman Holdings, which were based on alleged breaches of certain representations and warranties by Lehman Holdings in the mortgage loans it had sold to Fannie Mae. Lehman Holdings acquired these loans from Aurora Bank, FSB, formerly known as Lehman Brothers Bank, FSB, which in turn purchased the loans from certain 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 settlement discussions and non-binding mediations of the alleged indemnification claims against the mortgage loan originators concerning 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 a 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 declaratory judgment that SecurityNational Mortgage sought in its Delaware lawsuit, and for damages relating to the alleged obligations of the defendants under the 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. No response was required to be filed relative to the Complaint or the Amended Complaint dated March 7, 2016. A Case Management Order was entered on November 1, 2016.

On December 27, 2016, pursuant to the Case Management Order, Lehman Holdings filed a Second Amended Complaint against SecurityNational Mortgage, which eliminates the declaratory judgment claim but retains a similar claim for damages as in the Complaint. The case is presently in a motion period. Many of the defendants, including SecurityNational Mortgage, filed a joint motion in the case asserting that the Bankruptcy Court does not have subject matter jurisdiction concerning the matter and that venue is improper. Lehman Holdings' response memorandum was filed on May 31, 2017 and a reply memorandum of the defendants filing the motion was filed on July 14, 2017. A hearing date for the motion has not been set. No Answer to the Second Amended Complaint 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 its 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.

Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities

On September 11, 2015, the Board approved the Company's 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.

The following table shows the Company's repurchase activity during the six months ended June 30, 2017 under the Stock Purchase Plan.

Item 5. Other Information.

Changes in the Company's Certifying Accountant

On May 15, 2017, Edie Bailly LLP ("Eide Bailly") resigned as the independent registered public accounting firm of the Company. The resignation letter was sent by Eide Bailly to Norman G. Wilbur, Chairman of the Audit Committee of the Company's Board of Directors. Because Eide Bailly resigned as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm, the Company's Audit Committee had no alternative but to accept such resignation by Eide Bailly.

On June 1, 2017, the Company engaged the independent registered public accounting firm of Deloitte & Touche LLP (Deloitte & Touche") to audit and report on the Company's financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2017. The decision to appoint Deloitte & Touche as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm was recommended by the Company's Audit Committee of the Company's Board of Directors and approved by the Board of Directors.

During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015 and the subsequent interim period preceding the resignation by Eide Bailly, there were no disagreements (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K, as promulgated by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission) with Eide Bailly on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, or any reportable events (as described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K), which disagreement, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Eide Bailly, would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with its report. In addition, the reports by Eide Bailly on the Company's balance sheet as of December 31, 2016, and the related statements of operations, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the period ended December 31, 2016, did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.

Completion of 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 National Life and Reppond Holding, which was later amended on March 4, 2016 and March 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 transaction was completed following the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions set forth in the Stock Purchase Agreement. These conditions included obtaining all the required material orders, consents, permits, authorizations, approvals and waivers (including, without limitation, obtaining the approval of the Louisiana Department of Insurance without the material abrogation or diminishment of First Guaranty's or Reppond Holding's authority or license or the imposition of signification restrictions upon the transactions contemplated thereby). This condition was satisfied on July 8, 2016 when the Department issued an order approving the transaction, as required. The closing of the transaction took place soon thereafter on July 11, 2016.

At December 31, 2015, First Guaranty had 37,069 policies in force and 320 agents. Also, as of December 31, 2015, First Guaranty had statutory revenues of $8,102,000 and a statutory net loss of $724,000. Additionally, as of December 31, 2015, the statutory assets and the capital and surplus of First Guaranty were $55,550,000 and $3,849,000, respectively. As of December 31, 2014, First Guaranty had revenues of $8,080,000 and a net loss of $172,000. Moreover, as of December 31, 2014, the statutory assets and the capital and surplus of First Guaranty were $54,696,000 and $4,581,000, respectively.
