Readers are cautioned that any forward-looking

Transaction overview
On May 29, 2013, SCI announced a definitive
agreement to acquire all of the outstanding shares
of Class A and Class B common stock
of Stewart Enterprises for $13.25 in cash
Acquisition valued at $1.2 billion,
or approximately $1.4 billion
inclusive of cash and debt acquired
Transaction subject to customary closing conditions,
which include the approval of Stewart’s
shareholders and the expiration of the waiting period
under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Act
Frank Stewart and certain of his affiliates have entered into a
voting agreement to support the transaction
Acquisition not anticipated to close until end of year 2013 or
early 2014
No expected impact to normalized financial outlook for 2013;
any costs incurred as a result of the transaction will be
considered one-time and removed from normalized earnings per
share and adjusted cash flow from operations


 
 
 
 

 
 
 

Strategic rationale
Complementary geographic fit in a highly fragmented industry
and established platform in attractive metropolitan markets
Further promotes our operational and preneed sales
initiatives at a time where we believe the Baby Boomer
impact is beginning to take effect
Stewart has leadership positions in many of their markets;
strong local scale with significant volume
through each location further leverages back-office
costs
Compelling and opportunistic use of
capital to accelerate long-term strategies and
enhance shareholder value
Immediately accretive
to adjusted cash flow from operations and
normalized earnings per share, excluding
one-time implementation and closing costs
Compelling return on investment that meaningfully
exceeds our weighted average cost of capital
Attractive and tangible synergies
Favorable financing opportunities


 
 
 
 

 
 
 

Significant synergies
We expect to realize approximately $60 million
in annual cost savings from the combined
company within 24 months after close
Synergy opportunities are significant
Reduced back-office systems and infrastructure costs
Elimination of duplicative public company
and management structure costs
Improved purchasing power through greater scale
$60 million synergies represent 11.4% of Stewart’s revenues
To achieve these synergies, we expect to incur
one-time cash costs of approximately $30 million
spread over a 2 year period
We have a proven track record of successfully
integrating large acquisitions and delivering on
or exceeding our expected synergies

Funding for the transaction
Commitment currently in place from JPMorgan Chase Bank,
N.A. to finance the acquisition
We expect to use cash on hand from both companies at closing
Optimal structure of permanent financing to be determined
prior to the close of the transaction, but will likely involve a mix
of long-term permanent debt and shorter term pre-payable debt
We believe the strong cash flow and balance sheet of
the combined company will support continued investment
in growth initiatives as well as facilitate deleveraging post-close
We expect to maintain a balanced approach of
investing in our business and returning capital to
shareholders while also supporting a
prudent capital structure
We anticipate the continuation of our
regular quarterly cash dividends

EBITDA & Adjusted EBITDA
We use EBITDA as an underlying operational
performance measure of the continuing operations
of the business and to have a basis to compare underlying
operating results to prior and future periods
To calculate EBITDA, we make adjustments to
net income (a GAAP measure) to remove provision
for income taxes, interest expense and depreciation
and amortization expense
Adjusted EBITDA is a financial measure calculated
in accordance with our credit agreement, and
represents EBITDA further adjusted to reflect the impact of
Gains or losses on the early extinguishment of debt
Gains or losses on divestitures and impairment charges, net
Non-cash stock compensation expenses
Other operating income, net
Acquisitions and dispositions
Other non-recurring expenses
We believe that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA
provide investors and our lenders with additional
information to measure our financial performance
and evaluate our ability to service our debt
Our calculations of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA
are non-GAAP measures and are not necessarily comparable
to other similarly titled measures of other companies.
In addition, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not
include interest expense and the replacement costs of
assets, both of which can impact our ability
to generate profits and cash flows
