Description: SCI Service International October 31, 2025
Service Corporation International (SCI) operates the United States’ and Canada’s largest network of death-care providers, delivering funeral-home, cremation, and cemetery services under brands such as Dignity Memorial and Neptune Society. Its offerings span facility rentals, embalming, cremation, memorial merchandise, and interment rights (e.g., lawn crypts, mausoleum spaces), covering the full value chain from service execution to ancillary products.
In FY 2023 SCI generated approximately $5.5 billion in revenue, with an adjusted EBITDA margin near 12 % and same-store sales growth of roughly 3 % year-over-year. Key sector drivers include the aging U.S. population-U.S. Census projections show the 65-plus cohort will exceed 20 % of the population by 2030-and inflationary pressure on funeral-home pricing, which has historically allowed providers to pass cost increases to consumers without significant demand erosion. Cemetery occupancy rates remain high (≈ 85 % of developed lots), supporting stable cash flows even as cremation adoption rises.
