The SCI 401(k) Retirement Savings Plan
Houston, Texas
We have audited the accompanying Statements of Net Assets Available for Benefits of The SCI 401(k) Retirement Savings Plan as of December 31, 2013 and 2012 and the related Statement of Changes in Net Assets Available for Benefits for the year ended December 31, 2013. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of The SCI 401(k) Retirement Savings Plan as of December 31, 2013 and 2012 and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the year ended December 31, 2013 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Our audits were conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental Schedule of Assets (Held at End of Year) is presented for the purpose of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements but is supplementary information required by the Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. The supplemental schedule is the responsibility of the Plan's management. The supplemental schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

THE SCI 401(k) RETIREMENT SAVINGS PLAN
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2013 and 2012
1. Plan Description
General
The following description of the SCI 401(k) Retirement Savings Plan (the Plan) is provided for general information purposes only. Participants should refer to the Summary Plan Description or the Plan Document for a more complete description of the Plan's provisions.
The Plan, established July 1, 2000, is a defined contribution plan for the exclusive benefit of Service Corporation International's (SCI or the Company) United States non-union employees. The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA). The Plan's assets are held by Massachusetts Mutual Life Insurance Company (Mass Mutual) and participant accounts are maintained by MassMutual Retirement Services. Reliant Trust Company (Reliant) serves as the trustee for the SCI Common Stock Fund. State Street bank and Trust Company (State Street) serves as the trustee for the PIMCO Real Return Fund. Service Corporation International serves as Plan Administrator.
On August 8, 2013, the Administrative Committee executed a consent electing to move services related to custody of assets and maintenance of participant accounts to Charles Schwab. The transfer to Charles Schwab is scheduled for July of 2014.
Contributions
Eligible employees can participate in the Plan after completing three months of service and attaining age 21. Employees covered by a collective bargaining agreement in which retirement benefits are provided are not eligible under the Plan. The election to contribute to the Plan is voluntary. Employees are initially enrolled in the Plan, after meeting eligibility requirements, to contribute 3% of pretax annual compensation, unless participation is specifically rejected by such employees. Participants may contribute up to a maximum of 50% of pretax annual compensation. Each individual's participant contributions were limited to $17,500 in 2013. An additional catch-up contribution of $5,500 was allowed for employees aged 50 and over.
The Company contributes a matching amount up to 6% of the participant's pretax annual compensation. The percentage of the match is based on years of vesting service with the Company and ranges from 75% to 125% of the employee's eligible contribution as described in the table below. Additional amounts may be contributed at the Company's discretion. At December 31, 2013, the Plan reported $738,618 as a receivable for employer contributions which was paid subsequent to year-end. There were no discretionary Company contributions for the year ended December 31, 2013.
|
| | | |
| | |
Participant's Completed Years of Service | | Matching Percentage |
Less than 6 years | | 75 | % |
Greater than 6 years and less than 11 years | | 100 | % |
11 or more years | | 125 | % |
Participant Accounts
Participant account balances are valued based upon the number of units of each investment fund owned by the participants. Each participant's account is credited with the participant's contribution, the Company's contributions, and a pro rata share of the earnings of each fund in which the participant has invested. Forfeited balances of terminated participants' non-vested accounts are used to reduce administrative expenses and future Company contributions. For the year ended December 31, 2013, forfeited balances applied to reduce the December 31, 2013 employer true up contribution and plan expenses amounted to $1,000,391 and $70,983, respectively. At December 31, 2013 forfeitures amounting to $76,304 can be used to offset future employer contributions and/or administrative expenses.
Vesting
Participants are fully vested in their deferred salary, rollover contributions and related earnings. Participants are not vested in Company contributions and related earnings until they complete three years of vesting service with the Company thus becoming 100% vested.
THE SCI 401(k) RETIREMENT SAVINGS PLAN
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2013 and 2012
Participant Loans
Participants may borrow from their accounts up to one half of their vested account balance to a maximum of $50,000. The minimum amount that may be borrowed is $1,000. Loans are to be repaid within five years, or longer if the loan is used to purchase a primary residence. The loans are secured by the balance in the participant's account and bear interest fixed at 1% above the prime rate at the date of inception. A participant may have no more than two loans outstanding at any one time.Receivables for Securities Sold
The Plan records investment transactions on a trade date basis. Transactions may take up to seven days to settle, therefore pending purchases and sales are recorded as a receivable or payable as of period end. At December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Plan reported $0 and $2,366,388, respectively, as a receivable for securities sold. These transactions were settled within the seven day window subsequent to year end.
Participant Distributions
The Plan provides for several different types of participant withdrawals. Participants who have reached age 59 1/2 may make in-service withdrawals. Participants may request withdrawals before age 59 1/2 if they qualify for certain hardship withdrawals. Upon termination of service with the Company or death, the participant or beneficiary may receive a lump-sum amount equal to the vested amount in the participant's account. A participant whose account balance exceeds $5,000 may elect a deferred distribution until age 70 1/2 .
Plan Termination
The Company expects the Plan to continue indefinitely, however, it reserves the right to terminate or amend the Plan to eliminate future benefits. If the Plan is terminated, participants will become 100% vested and account balances will be distributed by a lump-sum payment.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Principles of Reporting
The financial statements and schedules have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) and the financial reporting requirements of ERISA and are maintained on an accrual basis except for participant distributions, which are reported when paid.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires Plan management to make estimates and assumptions that may affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and related notes. As a result, actual results could differ from those estimates.
Investments
Investments are reported at fair value. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (see Note 4 for information regarding Fair Value Measurements).
A self-directed investment account is allowed for each participant who directs an investment outside of the investment options designated by the Plan Administrator. The self-directed account shall not share in trust fund earnings but will be charged or credited as appropriate with net earnings, gains, losses, and expenses, as well as any appreciation (depreciation) in market value attributable to such account during each plan year. State Street Global Markets is asset custodian for the self-directed investment accounts.
Net appreciation (depreciation) in the fair value of the pooled separate accounts and registered investment company consist of net realized and unrealized appreciation (depreciation). Each investment fund's appreciation (depreciation) is allocated to participants based upon their proportionate share of assets in each investment fund.
In May 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2011-04, "Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs." ASU 2011-04 amended Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC 820") to converge the fair value measurement guidance in accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) and International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRSs").
THE SCI 401(k) RETIREMENT SAVINGS PLAN
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2013 and 2012
The amendment requires additional disclosures about fair value measurements categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. The additional disclosures include quantitative information about the significant unobservable inputs used in Level 3 fair value measurements, the valuation processes used by the Plan, and the Plan's policy for determining when transfers into or out of Level 3 are deemed to have occurred. The guidance was effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2011. Adopting this ASU during the year ended December 31, 2012 did not have a material impact on the Plan's financial statements.
Risks and Uncertainties
The Plan provides for several investment options, which are exposed to various risks, such as interest rate risk, market risk and credit risk. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment securities and the level of uncertainty related to changes in the value of investment securities, it is at least reasonably possible that changes in risks in the near term could materially affect participants' account balances and the amounts reported in the Statements of Net Assets Available for Benefits and the Statement of Changes in Net Assets Available for Benefits.
Administrative Expenses
Administrative expenses represent record keeping fees paid to Mass Mutual. Legal and audit fees are paid by SCI.
3. Investments
Investments that comprised 5% or more of the Plan's net assets available for benefits are as follows:

4. Fair Value Measurements
Financial Instruments Recorded at Fair Value
Fair Value Measurements Topic of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) establishes a framework for measuring fair value. That framework provides a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under Fair Value Measurements Topic of the ASC are described below:
| |
• | Level 1 - Inputs to the valuation methodology are unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the Plan has the ability to access. |
| |
• | Level 2 - Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices in active and inactive markets for similar assets or liabilities), or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. |
| |
• | Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. Level 3 assets and liabilities include financial instruments whose value is |
THE SCI 401(k) RETIREMENT SAVINGS PLAN
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2013 and 2012
determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation.
The following is a description of the valuation techniques used for assets measured at fair value for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012:
Interest-bearing cash and self-directed accounts are valued at net asset value of shares held at year end. The underlying investments held in registered investment company, pooled separate accounts and SCI common stock fund are valued at the net asset value of units held by the Plan at year end. Net asset value of units is derived from per share value of underlying publicly traded investments, net of assessed expenses.
The methods above described may produce a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. Furthermore, although the Plan believes its valuation techniques are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different techniques or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different fair value measurement at the reporting date.
The fair value of investments are categorized as follows at December 31, 2013 and 2012:

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2013 and 2012
5. Excess Contributions
Benefit distributions of $48,595,269 for the plan year ended December 31, 2013 include the accrual of $422,348 owed to certain active participants to return to them excess deferral and matching contributions as required to satisfy the relevant nondiscrimination provisions of the Plan. That amount is also included in the plan's statements of net assets available for benefits as excess contribution payable at December 31, 2013. The 2013 excess contributions were refunded to certain participants in March 2014.
6. Income Taxes
A determination letter was received June 30, 2004 from the Internal Revenue Service which declared that the Plan qualifies under Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code as being exempt from income taxes. The Plan has been amended since receiving the determination letter and the Plan Administrator believes that the Plan is currently being operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the Internal Revenue Code. Therefore, the Plan Administrator believes that the Plan was qualified and was tax exempt as of the financial statement date.
The Plan believes that all significant tax positions utilized by the Plan will more likely than not be sustained upon examination. As of December 31, 2013, the tax years that remain subject to examination by the major tax jurisdictions under the statute of limitations are from the year 2010 forward (with limited exceptions). Tax penalties and interest, if any, would be accrued as incurred and would be classified as tax expense in the Statement of Changes in Net Assets Available for Benefits.
7. Party-in-Interest
The Plan invests in various funds offered by Mass Mutual. These investments are considered party-in-interest transactions because Mass Mutual serves as Asset Custodian for the Plan. The Plan Administrator has approved of these investment options. Additional parties-in-interest include State Street Global Markets and State Bank and Trust as they serve as custodian for the self-directed accounts and interest bearing cash accounts, respectively.
