SECURITY NATIONAL FINANCIAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements June 30, 2001 (Unaudited) 1. Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. 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, 2001, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2001. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2000, included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K (file number 0-9341). The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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. The estimates susceptible to significant change are those used in determining the liability for future policy benefits and claims, those used in determining valuation allowances for mortgage loans on real estate, and those used in determining the estimated future costs for pre-need sales. Although some variability is inherent in these estimates, management believes the amounts provided are adequate. 2. Comprehensive Income For the six months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000, total comprehensive income amounted to $1,189,256 and $165,373, respectively. For the three months ended June 30, 2001, total comprehensive income amounted to $526,238 and $137,002, respectively. 3. Capital Stock In accordance with SFAS 128, the basic and diluted earnings per share amounts were calculated as follows: Six Months Ended June 30, 2001 2000 ---- ---- Numerator: Net income $974,566 $306,480 ========== ========== Denominator: Denominator for basic earnings per share-- weighted-average shares 4,450,839 4,307,694 Effect of dilutive securities: Employee stock options 255 49,182 Stock appreciation rights -- -- ---------- ---------- Dilutive potential common shares 255 49,182 ---------- ---------- Denominator for diluted earnings per share-adjusted weighted- average shares and assumed conversions 4,451,094 4,356,876 ========== ========== Basic earnings per share $0.22 $0.07 ========== ========== Diluted earnings per share $0.22 $0.07 ========== ========== There are no dilutive effects on net income for purpose of this calculation. 7

SECURITY NATIONAL FINANCIAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements June 30, 2001 (Unaudited) Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis Overview The Company's operations over the last several years generally reflect six 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 interest sensitive products; (ii) emphasis on cemetery and mortuary business; and (iii) capitalizing on lower interest rates by originating and refinancing mortgage loans. Results of Operations Six Months Ended June 30, 2001 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2000 Total revenues increased by $7,876,000, or 27.3%, to $36,762,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2001, from $28,887,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2000. Contributing to this increase in total revenues was a $6,082,000 increase in mortgage fee income, a $666,000 increase in net investment income, and a $1,184,000 increase in net mortuary and cemetery sales. Insurance premiums and other considerations decreased by $17,000, or .3%, to $6,583,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2001, from $6,600,000 for the comparable period in 2000. This decrease was primarily due to the adjustment of the amortization rate of unearned premium reserve to the Company's current actuarial assumptions. Net investment income increased by $666,000, or 11.3%, to $6,560,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2001, from $5,894,000 for the comparable period in 2000. This increase was primarily attributable to additional interest earned as a result of a greater number of loan originations during the six months of 2001. Net mortuary and cemetery sales increased by $1,184,000, or 22.8%, to $6,370,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2001, from $5,186,000 for the comparable period in 2000. This increase was primarily due to additional pre-need cemetery sales. Mortgage fee income increased by $6,082,000, or 54.8%, to $17,190,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2001, from $11,108,000 for the comparable period in 2000. This increase was primarily attributable to a greater number of loan originations during the six months of 2001 due to lower interest rates resulting in more borrowers refinancing their mortgage loans. Total benefits and expenses were $35,468,000, or 96.5%, of total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2001, as compared to $28,439,000, or 98.5%, of total revenues for the comparable period in 2000. Death benefits, surrenders and other policy benefits, and increase in future policy benefits increased by an aggregate of $114,000, or 1.9%, to $6,171,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2001, from $6,057,000 for the comparable period in 2000. This increase was primarily the result of an increase in death claims. Amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs and cost of insurance acquired decreased by $369,000, or 15.9%, to $1,949,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2001, from $2,318,000 for the comparable period in 2000. This decrease was in line with actuarial assumptions. 10

General and administrative expenses increased by $5,958,000, or 34.0%, to $23,468,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2001, from $17,510,000 for the comparable period in 2000. This increase primarily resulted from an increase in commissions and other expenses due to additional mortgage loan originations having been made by the Company's mortgage subsidiary during the six months of 2001. Interest expense increased by $723,000, or 80.8%, to $1,617,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2001, from $894,000 for the comparable period in 2000. This increase was primarily due to additional warehouse lines of credit required for the additional mortgage loan originations by the Company's mortgage subsidiary. Cost of goods and services sold of the mortuaries and cemeteries increased by $603,000, or 36.3%, to $2,263,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2001, from $1,660,000 for the comparable period in 2000. This increase was primarily due to additional pre-need cemetery sales. Second Quarter of 2001 Compared to Second Quarter of 2000 Total revenues increased by $3,200,000, or 21.0%, to $18,468,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2001, from $15,268,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2000. Contributing to this increase in total revenues was a $2,102,000 increase in mortgage fee income, a $320,000 increase in net investment income and an $871,000 increase in net mortuary and cemetery sales. Insurance premiums and other considerations decreased by $104,000, or 3.2%, to $3,102,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2001, from $3,206,000 for the comparable period in 2000. This decrease was primarily due to the adjustment of the amortization rate of unearned premium reserve to the Company's current actuarial assumptions. Net investment income increased by $320,000, or 10.4%, to $3,411,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2001, from $3,091,000 for the comparable period in 2000. This increase was primarily attributable to additional interest earned as a result of a greater number of loan originations during the second quarter of 2001. Net mortuary and cemetery sales increased by $871,000, or 35.0%, to $3,362,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2001, from $2,491,000 for the comparable period in 2000. This increase is primarily due to additional pre-need cemetery sales. Mortgage fee income increased by $2,102,000, or 32.5%, to $8,569,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2001, from $6,467,000 for the comparable period in 2000. This increase was primarily attributable to a greater number of loan originations during the second quarter of 2001, due to lower interest rates resulting in more borrowers refinancing their mortgage loans. Total benefits and expenses were $17,884,000, or 96.8%, of total revenues for the three months ended June 30 2001, as compared to $15,065,000, or 98.7%, of total revenues for the comparable period in 2000. Death benefits, surrenders and other policy benefits, and increase in future policy benefits increased by an aggregate of $150,000, or 5.1%, to $3,075,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2001, from $2,925,000 for the comparable period in 2000. This increase was primarily the result of an increase in interest credited on policyholder account balances. Amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs and cost of insurance acquired decreased by $325,000 or 27.2, to $871,000, for the three months ended June 30, 2001, from $1,196,000 for the comparable period in 2000. This decrease was in line with actuarial assumptions. General and administrative expenses increased by $2,289,000 or 23.9%, to $11,857,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2001, from $9,568,000 for the comparable period in 2000. This increase primarily resulted from an increase in commissions and other expenses due to additional mortgage loan originations having been made by the Company's mortgage subsidiary during the second quarter of 2001. 11

Interest expense increased by $348,000, or 62.0%, to $909,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2001, from $561,000 for the comparable period in 2000. This increase was primarily due to additional warehouse lines of credit required for the additional mortgage loan originations by the Company's mortgage subsidiary. Cost of mortuaries and cemeteries goods and services sold increased by $357,000, or 43.9%, to $1,172,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2001, from $814,000 for the comparable period in 2000. This increase was primarily due to additional pre-need cemetery sales. 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 subsidiary realizes 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 on the issuance of new policies, the maintenance of existing policies, debt service, and operating expenses. 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; however, to date, that has not been necessary. 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. The Company's investment policy is to invest predominantly in fixed maturity securities, mortgage loans, and warehouse 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 life insurance subsidiaries amounted to $54,528,000 as of June 30, 2001, compared to $62,889,000 as of December 31, 2000. This represents 56% and 60% of the total insurance-related investments as of June 30, 2001, and December 31, 2000, 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, 2001, .75% ($408,000) and at December 31, 2000, .68% ($429,000) of the Company's total investment in bonds 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. However, in accordance with Company policy, any such securities purchased in the future will be classified as held to maturity. Business conditions, however, 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, 2001, and December 31, 2000, the life insurance subsidiary exceeded the regulatory criteria. 12

The Company's total capitalization of stockholders' equity and bank debt and notes payable was $40,749,000 as of June 30, 2001, as compared to $40,787,000 as of December 31, 2000. Stockholders' equity as a percent of capitalization increased to 69% as of June 30, 2001, from 64% as of December 31, 2000. Lapse rates measure the amount of insurance terminated during a particular period. The Company's lapse rate for life insurance in 2000 was 15% as compared to a rate of 10% for 1999. The 2001 lapse rate is approximately the same as 2000. At June 30, 2001, $22,794,000 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 insurance regulatory authorities. Item 3.
