SCI and Carriage Services Report Third-Quarter Earnings

The latest edition of Elevate from Ring Ring Marketing takes a closer look at one of the biggest forces impacting deathcare today: lower funeral volumes driven by changing mortality trends, not necessarily declining market share.

The newsletter analyzes first-quarter results from Service Corporation International, Carriage Services, and Matthews International, highlighting key developments in preneed sales, cemetery growth, acquisition activity, and evolving consumer preferences.

Inside this issue:

• Connecticut lawmakers advance plans for a funeral fraud victim compensation fund.

• A funeral home owner gains national attention with a fast-growing presence on TikTok and Instagram.
• Families voice concerns in several widely watched cremation and funeral home investigations across the country.
