                PART I

Item 1.  Business
- -----------------
Security National Financial Corporation (the "Company"),
through its subsidiaries, is engaged in the business of
selling and servicing selected lines of life insurance and
annuity products, in selling cemetery and funeral products
and services, and in originating, refinancing, and
servicing residential and commercial mortgage loans.  The
Company markets its insurance and annuity products in 29
states through a commissioned sales force of 103
independent licensed insurance agents who may also sell
insurance products of other companies.  The Company owns
six cemeteries (four with funeral chapels on the property)
and four mortuaries in the state of Utah and three
mortuaries in the State of Arizona.  The Company markets
its cemetery and funeral products and services in the
States of Utah and Arizona, through a commissioned sales
force of 72 sales representatives, of which 21 sales
representatives also sell the Company's insurance and
annuity products.  At December 31, 1994, the Company had 81
full time employees and 35 part-time employees.  The
Company had approximately $437,000,000 of life insurance in
force and approximately $22,000,000 of contract value in
force as of December 31, 1994.

The Company was organized as a holding company in 1979 when
Security National Life Insurance Company ("Security
National Life") became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the
Company and the former stockholders of Security National
Life became stockholders of the Company.  Security National
Life was formed in 1965 and completed a public offering of
Class A common stock in that year.  It has grown through
the direct sales of life insurance and annuities and
through acquisitions of other companies.  Memorial Estates,
Inc. and Memorial Mortuary became wholly-owned subsidiaries
of the Company in the 1979 reorganization when the Company
was formed.  Those companies had been acquired by Security
National Life in 1973.  Investors Equity Life Insurance
Company of Hawaii, Ltd. ("Investors Equity"), a direct
subsidiary of the Company was acquired in June 1986, and
subsequently sold in June 1991.  

In 1989, the Company acquired Paradise Chapel Funeral Home,
Inc. as a wholly-owned subsidiary.  Also in 1989 IEL
Holding Company, Inc. was formed as a wholly-owned
subsidiary of the Company to acquire all of the stock of
Investors Equity pursuant to a reorganization which was
completed on December 31, 1989. During December 1992, 100%
of the common stock of IEL Holding Company, Inc., was
contributed by the Company to Security National Life, a
wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.  Effective April 1,
1994, IEL Holding Company Inc., was liquidated into
Security National Life.

At the annual meeting of stockholders held on December 27,
1990, the Articles of Incorporation were amended such that
the name was changed from S.N.L. Financial Corporation to
Security National Financial Corporation. 

In 1991, the Company acquired Holladay Memorial Park, Inc.,
Cottonwood Mortuary, Inc., Holladay Cottonwood Memorial
Foundation, and Deseret Memorial, Inc. as wholly-owned
subsidiaries.  Deseret Memorial, Inc. includes the
following entities:  Deseret Mortuary, Colonial Mortuary,

<PAGE>
Deseret Memorial Plan, Lake Hills Benevolent Trust, Lake
Hills Memorial Crematory, Lake Hills Mortuary, Lake Hills
Memorial Park, and Alta Concrete Products and Vault Plant. 

In July 1993, the Company formed Security National Mortgage
Company ("Security National Mortgage") to originate,
refinance and service residential and commercial mortgage
loans in the State of Utah.  The Company contributed assets
of approximately $268,000 to capitalize the initial
operations of Security National Mortgage.  In January 1994,
the Company acquired Sunset Funeral Home, Inc. which owns
and operates a mortuary located in Phoenix, Arizona. 
Security National Mortgage and Sunset Funeral Home are both
wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company.

In December 1994, the Company acquired Capital Investors
Life Insurance Company ("Capital Investors Life"), a
Florida based life insurance company.  On December 28,
1994, Capital Investors Life was redomesticated to Utah. 
Capital Investors Life is licensed in 23 states (17 of
which Security National Life is also licensed).  At
December 23, 1994, Capital Investors Life had approximately
$79,000,000 insurance in force and $10,000,000 of contract
value.  The Company intends to move Capital Investors
Life's administrative operations to Salt Lake City during
1995.

In January 1995, the Company, through its newly-formed
wholly-owned subsidiary, California Memorial Estates, Inc.,
purchased approximately 100 acres of real property located
in San Diego, California, of which approximately 35 acres
will be used for the development of a cemetery.  The
Company is in the process of obtaining approval from the
federal government and the California Cemetery Board to
operate a cemetery on the property.  In March 1995, the
Company acquired 97.8% of the issued and outstanding common
stock of Greer-Wilson Funeral Home, Inc., which owns and
operates a funeral home in Phoenix, Arizona.

The Company through its insurance subsidiaries issues and
distributes selected lines of life insurance and annuities. 
The Company's life insurance business includes funeral
plans and interest-sensitive whole life insurance, as well
as other traditional life and accident insurance products.
The Company's annuity business includes flexible premium
deferred annuity contracts, single premium deferred annuity
contracts, and other types of annuities.  The Company's
life insurance and annuity business decreased significantly
with the sale of Investors Equity.

The Company through its cemetery and mortuary subsidiaries
markets a variety of products and services utilized in its
cemetery and funeral service operations.  The products
include grave plots, markers, caskets, and other related
products.  The services include opening and closing of
graves, professional services, use of automobiles, and the
use of chapels and viewing rooms.  The Company markets
these products and services through its six cemeteries
(four with funeral chapels on the property) and seven
mortuaries on both an at-need (at time of death) and a
pre-need basis.  The Company's cemetery and mortuary

<PAGE>
business increased with the acquisition of Holladay
Memorial Park, Inc., Cottonwood Mortuary, Inc. and Deseret
Memorial, Inc. in September, 1991 and with the acquisition
of Sunset Funeral Home, Inc. in January 1994.

The following table sets forth information with respect to
revenues from the Company's life, annuity and accident and
health insurance, and cemetery and mortuary products and
services for each of the five years in the period ended
December 31, 1990 to 1994:

<PAGE>
           The Company, in marketing its life insurance products,
           seeks to locate, develop and service specific "niche"
           markets.  A "niche" market is an identifiable market which
           the Company believes is not emphasized by other insurers. 
           In its insurance operations, the Company markets a variety
           of life insurance products, including ordinary life
           policies and interest-sensitive whole life policies,  but
           places specific marketing emphasis on funeral plans.
</TABLE>

A funeral plan is a small face value life insurance policy
that generally has a face coverage of up to $5,000.  The
Company believes that funeral plans represent a marketing
niche that is less competitive since most insurance
companies do not offer similar coverages.  The purpose of
the funeral plan policy is to pay the costs and expenses
incurred at the time of a person's death.  On a per
thousand cost of insurance basis, these policies are more
expensive to the policyholder than many types of non-burial
insurance due to their low face amount, requiring the fixed
cost of the policy to be distributed over a smaller policy
size, and due to the higher age of the policyholder
resulting in higher mortality costs.

  Markets and Distribution

The Company is licensed to sell insurance in 29 states. 
The Company generally sells its life insurance products to
people of middle age who have a need for insurance to
protect the income of the wage earner of the family, to pay
off debts at the time of death and for other estate
planning purposes.  Funeral plan policies are sold
primarily to persons who range in age from 45 to 75.  Even
though people of all ages and income levels purchase
funeral plans, the Company believes that the highest
percentage of funeral plan purchasers are individuals who
are older than 45 and have low to moderate income.  A
majority of the Company's funeral plan premiums come from
the states of  Arizona, Colorado, Idaho, Oklahoma, Texas
and Utah, and a majority of the Company's non-funeral plan
life insurance premiums come from the states of New Mexico
and Utah.

The Company sells its life insurance products through
direct agents and brokers and has 103 independent licensed
agents who may also sell insurance products of other
companies.  The commissions on life insurance products
range from approximately 45% to 90% of first year premiums. 
In those cases where the Company utilizes its direct agents
in selling such policies, those agents customarily receive
advances against future commissions.

The Company employs a direct agency system in marketing
funeral plan insurance.  In some instances, the policies
are marketed in conjunction with the Company's cemetery and
mortuary sales force.  When they are marketed by that
group, the beneficiary is usually the Company.  Thus, death
benefits that become payable under the policy are paid to
the Company's cemetery and mortuary subsidiaries to the
extent of services performed and products purchased.
<PAGE>

In marketing the funeral plan insurance, the Company also
seeks and obtains third-party endorsements from other
cemeteries and mortuaries within its marketing areas. 
Typically, these cemeteries and mortuaries will provide
letters of endorsement and may share in mailing and other
lead-generating costs.  The incentive for such businesses
to share the costs is that these businesses are usually
made the beneficiary of the policy as their interest may
appear.

Annuities

  Products

The Company markets both deferred and immediate annuity
products. A deferred annuity is a contract where the
individual remits a sum of money to the Company which is
retained on deposit until such time as the individual may
wish to purchase an immediate annuity or surrender his
contract for cash.  An immediate annuity is a contract with
the Company in which the individual remits to the Company
a sum of money in return for the Company's obligation to
pay a series of payments on a periodic basis over a
designated period of time, such as an individual's life, or
for such other period as may be designated.

Holders of annuities enjoy significant benefits under the
current federal income tax law in that interest accretions
that are credited to the annuities do not incur current
income tax expense on the part of the contract holder. 
Instead, the interest income is tax deferred until such
time as it is paid out to the contract holder.

A flexible premium deferred annuity gives the contract
holder the right to make premium payments of varying
amounts or to make no further premium payments after his
initial payment.  This flexible premium annuity can have an
initial surrender charge.  The surrender charge acts as a
deterrent to individuals who may wish to surrender their
annuity contracts.  This type of annuity has a guaranteed
interest rate of 4%.  Above that, the interest rate is as
determined by the Board of Directors at their discretion.

In order for the Company to realize a profit on an annuity
product, the Company must maintain an interest rate spread
between its investment income and the credited interest
rate it is applying to annuities.  From that spread must 
be  deducted  commissions,  issuance  expenses and general
and administrative expenses.  The Company's annuities
currently have credited interest rates ranging from 4% to
6.25%.

  Markets and Distribution

The general market for all of the Company's annuities is
middle to older age individuals who wish to save or invest
their money in a tax deferred environment, having
relatively high yields.  The Company currently markets its
annuities primarily in the states of Arizona, Colorado,
Idaho, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Texas and Utah.

<PAGE>
The major source of annuity premium comes from direct
agents. Annuities can be sold as a by-product of other
insurance sales.  This is particularly true in the funeral
planning area.  If an individual does not qualify for a
funeral plan due to health considerations, the agent will
often sell that individual an annuity to take care of those
final expenses.  The commission rates on Single Premium
Deferred Annuities range from 2% to 8%.  The commission
rates on annuities other than the Single Premium Deferred
Annuity range from 2.5% to 10.5%.

Accident and Health Products

Prior to the acquisition of Capital Investors Life, the
Company did not actively market accident and health
products.  With the acquisition of Capital Investors Life,
the Company acquired a block of accident and health
policies which pay limited benefits to policyholders if
they are involved in motor vehicle accidents.  At December
31, 1994, there were approximately 41,000 policyholders
with annual premiums of approximately $500,000.

Capital Investors Life is currently offering a low-cost
comprehensive diver's accident policy.  The policy provides
world-wide coverage for medical expense reimbursement and
life insurance in the event of diving or water sports
accidents.  At December 31, 1994, there were approximately
2,500 policyholders with annual premiums of approximately
$128,000.

Capital Investors Life currently markets its divers policy
through water sports magazine advertising and dive shops
throughout the world.  Capital Investors Life pays a direct
commission to the dive shops for new business generated.

Cemetery and Funeral Services

  Products

The Company has five wholly-owned cemeteries and one cemetery owned through a
joint venture with an Ogden, Utah based mortuary.  The cemeteries are non-
denominational.  There are mortuary facilities located in Salt Lake City,
Utah; Sandy, Utah; and Phoenix, Arizona.

        $137,500 was held by Security National Life.
  (4)   The Company has acquired an interest in this
        cemetery through a joint venture with an unrelated
        mortuary, under which the Company receives 65% of
        the net proceeds of all land sales and 50% of the
        net proceeds of sales of other products and
        services.  As of December 31, 1994, there was a
        mortgage of approximately $204,000, which is
        collateralized by property and facilities of
        Evergreen Memorial Park.
  (5)   As of December 31, 1994, there was a mortgage of
        approximately $2,240,000 which is collateralized by
        the property and facilities at Deseret Mortuary,
        Cottonwood Mortuary, Holladay Memorial Park,
        Lakehills Cemetery and Colonial Mortuary.
  (6)   This cemetery includes two granite mausoleums.
  (7)   This cemetery includes a chapel, viewing rooms and
        a crematory in an approximately 14,600 square foot
        facility.
  (8)   This cemetery includes a chapel with adjoining
        viewing rooms and sales offices and two mausoleums.

Through its cemetery and mortuary operations, the Company
markets products which include grave spaces, interment
vaults, mausoleum crypts and niches, markers, granite bases
for markers, caskets, flowers, wreaths and other monuments,
and provides services which include professional services
of funeral directors, the opening and closing of graves and
the use of chapel facilities, automobiles and clothing. 
The Company has a funeral chapel at each of its cemeteries
other than the Ogden, Utah cemetery and Holladay Memorial
Park and has six separate stand alone mortuary facilities.

The Company sells its products on a pre-need and an at-need
basis.  A pre-need basis is the sale of the product prior
to the actual use of the product at the time of death. 
At-need is the sale of the product for immediate use, at
death.

  Markets and Distribution

The Company's pre-need cemetery and mortuary sales are
marketed to persons of all ages but are generally limited
to persons 45 years of age and older.  The Company also
markets its mortuary and cemetery products on an at-need
basis.  The Company is limited in its geographic
distribution of these products to areas lying within an
approximate 20 mile radius of its cemeteries.  This would
limit the sale of its products primarily to the area known
as the "Wasatch Front," covering approximately 100 miles
between Salt Lake City and Ogden, with the greatest
concentration of sales being in the Greater Salt Lake City
Area.  The Company's at-need sales are similarly limited in
geographic area.

The Company actively seeks to sell its cemetery and funeral
products to customers on a pre-need basis.  The Company
employs 72 cemetery sales representatives on a commission
basis to sell these products.  Approximately 21 of the
cemetery sales representatives are also licensed insurance
salesmen and sell funeral plan insurance.  In many
instances, the Company's cemetery and mortuary facilities
are the named beneficiary of the funeral plan policies. 

The sales representatives of the Company's cemetery and
mortuary operations are commissioned and receive no salary. 
The sales commissions range from 10% to 22% for cemetery

<PAGE>
products and services and 45% to 55% of first year premiums
for funeral plan insurance.  Potential customers are
located via telephone sales prospecting, responses to
letters mailed by the sales representatives, newspaper
inserts and door to door canvassing.  The Company trains
its sales representatives and generates leads for them.  If
a customer comes to one of the Company's cemeteries on an
at-need basis, the sales representatives are compensated on
a commission basis.

Mortgage Loans

  Products

The Company originates and underwrites residential and
commercial loans for new construction and existing homes
and real estate projects for the greater Salt Lake City
area.  The Company is an approved governmental and
conventional lender and processes governmental and
conventional loans.  Most of the loans are sold to Security
National Life, which in turn will either service the loan
or sell the loan to another investor.  The Company also
sells directly to investors.

  Markets and Distribution

The Company's mortgage services are marketed to individual
homeowners and businesses who are located in the area known
as the "Wasatch Front," covering approximately 100 miles
between Salt Lake City and Ogden, with the greatest
concentration of sales being in the Greater Salt Lake City
area.  The typical loan size for residential loans ranges
from $40,000 to $150,000, and for commercial loans from
$200,000 to $750,000.

The Company's mortgage loan originations are through part-
time and full time mortgage brokers who are paid a sales
commission ranging between .40% to 1.0% of the loan amount.

Prospective customers are located through contacts with
builders, real estate agents, and door-to-door canvassing. 
The part-time brokers are individuals who are supplementing
their full time employment by soliciting residential
homeowners to refinance their existing mortgage loans.  The
Company provides training to these brokers.

Recent Acquisitions and Other Business Activities

Holladay Memorial Park, Inc. and Cottonwood Mortuary, Inc.

On September 10, 1991, the Company entered into a stock
purchase agreement (the "Stock Purchase Agreement") with
The John E. and Donna G. Mackay Family Trust, the sole
shareholder of Holladay Memorial Park, Inc., a Utah
corporation, and JD&M Investments, Inc., a Utah
corporation, for the purchase of all of the outstanding
shares of Holladay Memorial Park, Inc., and JD&M
Investments, Inc.  JD&M Investments, Inc., now known as

<PAGE>
Cottonwood Mortuary, Inc., has all right, title and
interest in and to the following corporations and business
entities:  Holladay Cottonwood Memorial Foundation, a Utah
corporation, and Deseret Memorial, Inc., a Utah
corporation, including, but not limited to, the following
entities:  Deseret Mortuary, Colonial Mortuary, Deseret
Memorial Plan, Lakehills Benevolent Trust, Lakehills
Memorial Crematory, Lakehills Mortuary, Lakehills Memorial
Park, and Alta Concrete Products and Vault Plant.

JD&M Investments, Inc. (Cottonwood Mortuary, Inc.) includes
two cemeteries and four mortuaries, all of which are
located in Salt Lake County, Utah.  The mortuaries and
cemeteries are non-denominational.  The mortuaries consist
of Deseret Mortuary, which is reportedly the oldest
mortuary in Salt Lake City, Utah, Colonial Mortuary,
Cottonwood Mortuary and Lakehills Mortuary.  The cemetery
is known as Lakehills Cemetery and consists of
approximately 42 acres, of which 12 acres are developed. 
Holladay Memorial Park, Inc. has one cemetery located in
Salt Lake County, Utah, known as Holladay Memorial Park,
consisting of approximately 13 acres, of which six acres
are developed.  Holladay Memorial Park is reportedly the
second oldest cemetery in the State of Utah.  The Company
intends to operate the companies as wholly-owned
subsidiaries for an indefinite period of time.  As a result
of acquiring stock of these companies, the Company was
required to assume certain pre-need obligations under
special terms and conditions which were determined by the
Department of Occupational and Professional Licensing of
the State of Utah.  

  Pinehill Business Park

On February 12, 1993, the Company entered into a purchase
and sale agreement to acquire Pinehill Business Park.  The
business park is approximately 8.65 acres and located in
Murray, Utah.  The business park contains three office
buildings with a total of 47,000 square feet of office
space and seven office and warehouse combination buildings
with a total of 89,000 square feet of space.  The purchase
price of the property was $2,150,000.  An aggregate of
$1,500,000 was borrowed by the Company from a bank.  The
remainder of the purchase price came from the Company's
internal funds.

  Sunset Funeral Homes, Inc.

On January 10, 1994, the Company acquired all of the issued
and outstanding shares of common stock of Sunset Funeral
Homes, Inc., an Arizona corporation ("Sunset").  In
connection with this transaction, the Company also acquired
certain real estate and other assets related to the
business of Sunset from the sole shareholder (the
"Shareholder") of Sunset.  Sunset owns and operates a
funeral home in Phoenix, Arizona, known as Camelback Sunset
Funeral Home.  In consideration for the transfer of all the
outstanding common stock of Sunset and related assets owned

<PAGE>
by the Shareholder of Sunset, the Company (i) assumed
approximately $588,000 in indebtedness of Sunset; (ii) paid
$100,000 in cash, subject to closing adjustments; (iii)
paid $40,000 in cash to the daughter of the Shareholder of
Sunset; (iv) issued 25,000 shares of the Company's Class A
Common Stock; and (v) agreed to pay the amount of $3,500
per month during the lifetime of the Shareholder of Sunset
up to a maximum of $560,000.  In the event of the death of
the Shareholder of Sunset prior to the payment of $560,000,
the remaining unpaid balance of such amount would be paid
to the daughter of such Shareholder.  The Company paid the
cash portion of the purchase price from internal funds. 
The Company has continued to operate Sunset as a funeral
home and mortuary.

  Capital Investors Life Insurance Company

On December 21, 1994, the Company completed the purchase of
all of the outstanding shares of common stock of Capital
Investors Life Insurance Company, a Florida based life
insurance company ("Capital Investors Life") from Suncoast
Financial Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("Suncoast
Financial") and, prior to closing of the transaction, the
sole shareholder of Capital Investors Life.  Although the
closing documents were dated December 16, 1994, the
transaction was not completed until December 21, 1994 when
the Florida Department of Insurance approved the purchase
of the shares of Capital Investors Life by order dated
December 21, 1994.  The closing documents were executed and
held in escrow until the order was received from the
Florida Department of Insurance, following which the escrow
was broken pursuant to written directions from the Company
and Suncoast Financial, and the funds and documents were
then disbursed in conformance with the terms of the escrow
agreement.

At the time of the transaction, Capital Investors Life was
a Florida domiciled insurance company with total assets of
approximately $30.0 million.  However, Capital Investors
Life was redomesticated to Utah as of December 28, 1994. 
Capital Investors Life's assets include fixed maturity
securities, equity securities, policy loans, receivables,
accrued investment income, deferred policy acquisition
costs, cost of insurance acquired, and property plant and
equipment.  Capital Investors Life is currently licensed to
transact business in 23 states.

As consideration for the purchase of the shares of Capital
Investors Life, the Company provided Suncoast Financial at
closing with the following: (i) $5,231,000 in cash, (ii)
40,000 shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock, and
(iii) a profit sharing agreement providing for 33-1/3% of
the profits from new post-closing sales of existing Capital
Investors Life plans of insurance to be paid as earned.  An
aggregate of $2,700,000 of the cash consideration was
borrowed by the Company from Key Bank, Crossroads Office,
Salt Lake City, Utah, and is payable by the Company in
accordance with the terms of a Promissory Note dated

<PAGE>
December 16, 1994, bearing interest at one-half
percent per annum above the bank's prime rate, and payable
in monthly payments in the amount of $36,420, with the
unpaid principal balance, together with accrued interest
and other charges, due and payable on December 16, 1999. 
The remainder of the purchase price came from the Company's
internal funds.  The Company is required to register the
40,000 shares of Class A Common Stock by preparing and
filing a Form S-3 Registration Statement with the U.S.
Securities and Exchange Commission.  

The Company intends to continue the operations of Capital
Investors Life as an insurance company.

  California Memorial Estates, Inc.

On February 3, 1995, California Memorial Estates, Inc., a
newly organized Utah corporation and wholly-owned
subsidiary of the Company, entered into a Purchase and Sale
Agreement and Escrow Instructions with the Carter Family
Trust and the Leonard M. Smith Family Trust to purchase
approximately 100 acres of real property located in San
Diego County, California (the "Property").  The purchase
price of the property was $1,162,000, $100,000 of which was
paid in cash at closing and the balance of $1,062,000 is to
be paid in accordance with terms of a promissory note
collateralized by a Deed of Trust to the Property.  The
Company intends initially to develop the Property by
designating approximately 35 acres for the development of
a cemetery.

The Company has invested approximately $859,000 in various
regulatory studies, including environmental studies, water
studies, archaeological studies, and other studies.  There
are still issues to be addressed with regards to the
California gnat catcher, a bird which is not currently a
protected species under either federal or California laws,
but which is protected by San Diego County regulations, and
the diegan sage, which is a habitat species also protected
by San Diego County regulations.  Of the approximate 100
acres at the site, approximately 85% is impacted by the
diegan sage.  In January 1993, the Company received zoning
approval from San Diego County to operate a cemetery on the
Property.  The Company is in the process of obtaining
approval from the federal government and the California
Cemetery Board to operate a cemetery on the Property.

  Greer-Wilson Funeral Home, Inc.

On March 8, 1995, the Company was issued 97,800 shares of
common stock of Greer-Wilson Funeral Home, Inc. ("Greer-
Wilson"), representing 97.8% of the total issued and
outstanding shares of common stock of Greer-Wilson after
the issuance of such shares.  In consideration for the
issuance of such shares, the Company agreed (i) to
contribute $430,000 to Greer-Wilson for the payment of its
accounts payable, including pre-need deposits, or to assume
payment of the accounts payable, and to pay, renegotiate,
bring current or refinance Greer-Wilson's existing mortgage
loan indebtedness; and (ii) to pay Page E. Greer, the
former President and sole shareholder of Greer-Wilson, and

<PAGE>
his wife, a licensed mortician, $6,000 per month over a ten
year period for providing consulting services.  The Company
also loaned Mr. Greer and his wife the sum of $200,000 to
be paid on March 8, 2005, together with interest thereon at
the rate of  seven percent (7%) per annum.  This obligation
is to be collateralized by a pledge of 2,200 shares of the
Company's common stock which is held by Mr. Greer.  The
Company plans to continue to operate Greer-Wilson as a
funeral home and mortuary.

Regulation

Insurance companies are subject to comprehensive regulation
in the jurisdictions in which they do business under
statutes and regulations administered by state insurance
commissioners.  Such regulation relates to, among other
things, prior approval of the acquisition of a controlling
interest in an insurance company; standards of solvency
which must be met and maintained; licensing of insurers and
their agents; nature of and limitations on investments;
deposits of securities for the benefit of policyholders;
approval of policy forms and premium rates; periodic
examinations of the affairs of insurance companies; annual
and other reports required to be filed on the financial
condition of insurers or for other purposes; and
requirements regarding reserves for unearned premiums,
losses and other matters.  The Company's insurance
subsidiaries are subject to this type of regulation in any
state in which they are licensed to do business.  Such
regulation could involve additional costs, restrict
operations or delay implementation of the Company's
business plans.

The Company is currently subject to regulation in Utah
under insurance holding company legislation, and other
states where applicable.  Intercorporate transfers of
assets and dividend payments from its insurance subsidiary
is subject to prior notice of approval if they are deemed
"extraordinary" under these statutes.  The insurance
subsidiary is required, under state insurance laws, to file
detailed annual reports with the supervisory agencies in
each of the states in which it does business.  Their
business and accounts are also subject to examination by
these agencies.

The cemetery and mortuary subsidiaries are subject to the
Federal Trade Commission's comprehensive funeral industry
rules and are licensed by the Utah State Cemetery Board to
operate as endowment care cemeteries. The morticians must
be licensed by the state they provide services and
mortuaries are subject to the state laws of Arizona and
Utah and related city laws within those states.  Reports
are required on a yearly basis to the Utah Cemetery Board
and include financial information concerning the number of
spaces sold and funds provided to the Endowment Care Trust
Fund.  Licenses are issued annually on the basis of such
reports.  The cemeteries maintain city or county licenses
where they conduct business.

<PAGE>
Income Taxes

The Company's insurance subsidiaries, effective January 1,
1984, are taxed under the Life Insurance Company Tax Act of
1984.  Pursuant thereto, life insurance companies are taxed
at standard corporate rates on life insurance  company
taxable income.  Life insurance company taxable income is
gross income less general business deductions, reserves for
future policyholder benefits (with modifications), and a
small life insurance company deduction (up to 60% of life
insurance company taxable income).  The Company may be
subject to the corporate Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT). 
The exposure to AMT is primarily a result of the small life
insurance company deduction.  Also, under the Tax Reform
Act, distributions in excess of shareholder's surplus
account or significant decrease in life reserves will
result in taxable income.

The Company's insurance subsidiaries may continue to
receive the benefit of the small life insurance company
deduction.  In order to qualify for the small company
deduction, the combined assets of the Company must be less
than $500,000,000 and the taxable income of the life
insurance companies must be less than $3,000,000.  To the
extent that the net income limitation is exceeded, then the
small life insurance company deduction is phased out over
the next $12,000,000 of life insurance company taxable
income.  Commencing in 1990, the Company's life insurance
subsidiaries will have to compute their life insurance
taxable income after establishing a provision representing
a portion of the costs of acquisition of such life
insurance business.  The effect of the provision is that a
certain percentage of the Company's premium income will be
characterized as deferred expenses and recognized over a
five to ten year period.

The Company's non-life insurance company subsidiaries are
taxed in general under the regular corporate tax
provisions.  For taxable years beginning January 1, 1987,
the Company may be subject to the Corporate Alternative
Minimum Tax and the proportionate disallowance rules for
installment sales under the Tax Reform Act of 1986.

Competition

The life insurance industry is highly competitive.  There
are approximately 2,000 legal reserve life insurance
companies in business in the United States.  These
insurance companies differentiate themselves through
marketing techniques, product features, price and customer
service.  The Company's insurance subsidiary competes with
a large number of insurance companies, many of which have
greater financial resources, a longer business history,
and a more diversified line of insurance coverage than 

<PAGE>
the Company.  In addition, such companies generally have a
larger sales force.  Further, many of the companies with
which the Company competes are mutual companies which may
have a competitive advantage because all profits accrue to
policyholders.  Because the Company is small by industry
standards and lacks broad diversification of risk, it may
be more vulnerable to losses than large, well established
companies.  The Company believes that its policies and
rates for the markets it serves are generally competitive.

The cemetery and funeral business is also highly
competitive.  In the Salt Lake, Ogden and Phoenix areas in
which the Company competes, there are a number of
cemeteries and mortuaries which have longer business
histories, more established positions in the community and
stronger financial positions than the Company.  In
addition, some of the cemeteries with which the Company
must compete for sales are owned by municipalities and, as
a result, can offer lower prices than can the Company.  The
Company bears the cost of a pre-need sales program that is
not incurred by those competitors that do not have a
pre-need sales force.  The Company believes that its
products and prices are generally competitive with those in
the industry.

The mortgage loan business is highly competitive with
several mortgage companies and banks in the same geographic
area in which the Company is operating which have longer
business histories and more established positions in the
community.  The refinancing market is particularly
vulnerable to changes in interest rates.

Underwriting

Factors considered in evaluating an application for
insurance coverage include the applicant's age, occupation,
general health and medical history.  Upon receipt of a
satisfactory application which contains pertinent medical
questions, the Company writes insurance that is based on
its medical limits and requirements on a basis satisfactory
to the reinsuring company (or companies, if submitted
facultatively), subject to the following general
non-medical limits:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>


          Age Nearest               Non-Medical
           Birthday                   Limits    
          -----------              -------------
             <C>                         <C>

            51-up                  Exam Required
</TABLE>

When underwriting life insurance, the Company will
sometimes issue policies with higher premium rates for
substandard risks.

Reinsurance

The Company reinsures with other companies portions of the
individual life insurance and accident and health policies
it has underwritten.  The primary purpose of reinsurance is

<PAGE>
to enable an insurance company to write a policy in an
amount larger than the risk it is willing to assume for
itself.  No other liabilities or guarantees by the Company
exist on business ceded through reinsurance treaties. 
There is no assurance that the reinsurer will be able to
meet the obligations assumed by it under the reinsurance
agreement.

The Company's policy is to retain no more than $50,000 of
ordinary insurance per insured life.  Excess risk is
reinsured.  The total amount of life insurance in force at
December 31, 1994, reinsured by other companies aggregated
$35,100,000, representing approximately 8% of the Company's
life insurance in force on that date.

The Company currently reinsures certain risks with American
United Life Insurance Company, Businessmen's Assurance 
Company, Chesapeake Life Insurance Company, CIGNA RE,
Cologne Reassurance Company, Lincoln National Life
Insurance Company, Life Reassurance Corporation, Lone Star
Life, Mercantile & General Reinsurance Company, Munich
Reassurance Company, Transamerica Occidental Life Insurance
Company, Employers Reassurance Corporation, MidWest
National Life Insurance Company, North American Reinsurance
Company, Phoenix Mutual Life Insurance Company, Optimum
Reassurance Company, and Security Life of Denver, pursuant
to reinsurance treaties which are renewable annually.  The
premiums paid by the Company are based on the age of the
insured and the risk ceded to the reinsurer.  The Company
does not currently assume a material amount of premiums
under any reinsurance agreement.

The Company has entered into a coinsurance agreement with
an unaffiliated insurance company under which the Company
assumed 100% of the risk for certain life insurance
policies and certain other policy-related liabilities of
the insurance company. The Company has also entered into a
modified coinsurance arrangement, for statutory purposes,
with an unaffiliated insurance company.

Investments

The investments of the Company's life insurance and annuity
funds and assets is determined by the Investment Committee
of the Board of Directors of the various subsidiaries and
ratified by the full Board of Directors of the respective
subsidiaries.  A significant portion of the investments
must meet statutory requirements governing the nature and
quality of permitted investments by insurance companies.
The Company's interest sensitive type products, primarily
annuities and interest-sensitive whole life, compete with
other financial products such as bank certificates of
deposit, brokerage sponsored money market funds as well as
competing life insurance company products.  While it is not
the Company's policy to offer the highest yield in this
climate, in order to offer what the Company considers to be
a competitive yield, it maintains a diversified portfolio
consisting of common stocks, preferred stocks, municipal bonds,

<PAGE>
investment and non-investment grade bonds including
high-yield issues, short-term and other securities and
investments.

The following table shows investments of the Company at
December 31, 1994 and 1993.  Fixed maturities, mortgage
loans on real estate and short-term investments are stated
at cost, adjusted where appropriate for amortization of
premium or discount. Equity securities are stated at market

Item 7.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
- ----------------------------------------------------------
Condition and Results of Operations
- -----------------------------------

Overview

The Company's operations over the last three years
generally reflect three trends or events which the Company
expects to continue:  (i) increased attention to "niche"
insurance products, such as the Company's funeral plan
policies, annuities, and limited pay accident policies;
(ii) decreased general and administrative costs as a
percentage of revenue through efforts to reduce operating
costs and through eliminating unnecessary duplication of
costs at acquired companies; and (iii) emphasis on high
margin cemetery and mortuary business.

The Company maintains a diversified investment portfolio
consisting of common stock, preferred stock, municipal
bonds, investment grade and non-investment grade bonds,
mortgage loans, real estate, short term and other
securities and investments.  The Company's investment goals
are to maintain safety and liquidity, enhance principal
values and achieve increased rates of return consistent
with regulatory restraints.  The Company's interest
sensitive type products, primarily annuities and interest
sensitive whole life, compete with other financial products
such as bank certificates of deposit, brokerage sponsored
money market funds as well as competing life insurance
company products.

Results of Operations

1994 Compared to 1993

The Company's total revenues increased by $164,000 (1.0%),
from $16,496,000 in fiscal 1993, to $16,660,000 in fiscal
1994.  Contributing to this increase in total revenues was
a $648,000 increase in investment income and a $70,000
increase in mortgage fee income and other.

Net investment income increased by $648,000, from
$3,473,000 in 1993, to $4,121,000 in 1994.  This increase
was attributable to the Company's emphasis on investing its
cash and short-term investments in high-yielding long term
investments.

Realized gains on investments decreased by $396,000, from
$780,000 in 1993 to $384,000 in 1994.  The 1994 amount
included the results of the sale of 13.45 acres of land
deemed not suitable for cemetery development at Lake View
Cemetery.  On August 22, 1994, an agreement was reached for
the sale of the land to Temple Ridge Development Company
for $515,000. The net gain on the sale of the land, after
deducting the original cost of the land and related fees,
was approximately $278,000.

The 1993 amount of realized gains on investments included
the results of a favorable settlement of a lawsuit brought
in 1988 by the Metropolitan Water District against the
Company to condemn 6.6 acres of land at Mountain View
Cemetery.  The net gain on the sale of the land to the
Metropolitan Water District was $184,000.  The 1993 amount
also included $485,000 in realized gains by Security
National Life due to a significant amount of early bond
redemptions.

Mortuary and cemetery income decreased by $197,000, from
$6,085,000 in 1993 to $5,888,000 in 1994.  This decrease
was primarily related to a $299,000 reduction in pre-need
sales at Holladay Cottonwood Memorial Foundation.  This
decrease was partially offset by the additional sales of
the Company's other mortuaries, particularly Camelback
Sunset Funeral Home, which was acquired on January 10,
1994.

Mortgage fee income and other increased by $71,000, from
$1,253,000 in 1993 to $1,324,000 in 1994.  This increase
was due to $382,000 in additional revenues that were
generated by Security National Mortgage Company ("Security
National Mortgage"), which was formed as a wholly-owned
subsidiary of the Company on July 1, 1993, for the purpose
of originating and refinancing mortgage loans.  Partially
offsetting the additional revenues that were realized in
1994 from Security National Mortgage was a $174,000
reduction in revenues from Bonneville Limousine.  The
higher level of revenues from Bonneville Limousine in 1993
reflected the increased limousine services from the NBA
Allstar Game, which was held in Salt Lake City in 1993. 
There was also a $75,000 reduction in 1994 due to the
termination of a computer services agreement. The Company
had provided computer services to a third-party in 1993
under a computer services agreement but these services were
not provided in 1994.

Total benefits and expenses were $15,326,000 for 1994,
which constituted 92% of total revenue of the Company, as
compared to $15,027,000, or 91% of total revenues for 1993. 

Policy benefits decreased by $384,000, from $4,420,000 in
1993 to $4,027,000 in 1994.  This decrease was primarily
due to diminishing policies inforce from 1993 to 1994 and
because a large block of business obtained paid-up status.

Amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs decreased
by $176,000, from $943,000 in 1993 to $767,000 in 1994. 
This decrease was primarily due to certain deferred policy
acquisition costs which were determined unrecoverable and
amortized against income in 1993.

General and administrative expenses increased by $965,000,
from $7,098,000 in 1993, to $8,063,000 in 1994. This
increase was primarily due to the additional costs
associated with the operations of Camelback Sunset Funeral
Home, which was acquired on January 10, 1994, and Security
National Mortgage Company, which was formed and operated as
of July 1, 1993.

Interest expense increased by $18,000, from $675,000 in
1993 to $693,000 in 1994, due primarily to the debt assumed
with the acquisition of Camelback Sunset Funeral Home.

Cost of mortuary and cemetery lots and services decreased
by $123,000, from $1,890,000 in 1993 to $1,767,000 in 1994. 
This decrease was primarily due to a reduction in pre-need
sales at Holladay Cottonwood Memorial Foundation.

1993 Compared to 1992

The Company's total revenues increased by $1,763,000
(12.0%), from $14,733,000 in fiscal 1992 to $16,496,000 in
fiscal 1993.  Contributing to this increase in total

<PAGE>
revenues was a $284,000 increase in premiums, from
$4,493,000 in 1992 to $4,777,000 in 1993.  This increase
was attributable to a greater premium per application
issued in 1993 than the previous year.  The number of
policies issued in 1993 was about the same as in 1992.

Net investment income decreased by $94,000, from $3,567,000
in 1992 to $3,473,000 in 1993.  This decrease was due to a
higher percentage of invested assets in short term
investments in 1993 yielding a lower rate of interest.  In
1992, 19% of the invested assets were in short term
investments whereas in 1993, 26% of the invested assets
were in short term investments.

Mortuary and cemetery income increased by $344,000, from
$5,741,000 in 1992 to $6,085,000 in 1993.  This increase
was primarily related to increases in mortuary services as
Memorial Mortuary had a 25% increase in sales in 1993 and
Paradise Chapel Funeral Home had an 8% increase in sales in
1993, and to an increase in at need cemetery sales.  In
addition, the amount written off in the cemetery operations
deceased by approximately $200,000 in 1993 as compared to
the previous year.

Realized gains on investments increased by $197,000, from
$583,000 in 1992 to $780,000 in 1993.  This increase
resulted from a favorable settlement of the lawsuit brought
in 1988 by the Metropolitan Water District to condemn 6.6
acres of land at Mountain View Cemetery.  On February 19,
1993, an agreement was reached wherein the land was sold to
Metropolitan Water District for $300,000.  The net gain on
the sale of the land, after deducting the original cost of
the land and the costs of litigation, was $184,000.

In addition to the foregoing, other revenues increased by
$899,000, from $354,000 in 1992 to $1,253,000 in 1993. 
This increase was primarily due to $788,000 in additional
revenues that were generated by Security National Mortgage
Company, which was formed on July 1, 1993, as a wholly-
owned subsidiary of the Company for the purpose of
originating and refinancing mortgage loans.

Total benefits and expenses were $15,026,000 for fiscal
1993, which constituted 91.1% of total revenue of the
Company, as compared to $13,767,000, or 93.4% of total
revenue in fiscal 1992.  Policyholder benefits increased by
$519,000, from $3,901,000 in 1992 to $4,420,000 in 1993. 
This increase was primarily due to an increase in interest
that was credited to annuity and other interest sensitive
reserves.

Amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs increased
by $214,000, from $729,000 in 1992 to $943,000 in 1993. 
This increase was primarily due to certain deferred policy
acquisition costs which were determined unrecoverable and
amortized against income in 1993.  General administrative
expenses increased by $469,000, from $6,629,000 in 1992 to
$7,098,000 in 1993.  This increase resulted from the
Company's new subsidiary, Security National Mortgage
Company, which incurred $687,000 in expenses in 1993.

Interest expense increased by $74,000, from $601,000 in
1992 to $675,000 in 1993.  This additional increase in
expense was the result of the $1,500,000 in additional debt

<PAGE>
financing by the Company in 1993 to acquire Pinehill
Business Park.  Cost of mortuary and cemetery lots and
products and services decreased by $17,000, from $1,907,000
in 1992 to $1,890,000 in 1993.  This decrease was due to a
decrease in pre-need cemetery sales.

Income tax expense as a percentage of pre-tax income was
26% in 1993.  In 1992 the tax provision was a benefit due
to the re-estimation of deferred tax liabilities based upon
the accumulation of identified temporary differences and
applying the current effective tax rates with the resulting
reduction in such deferred tax amounts being recorded in
1992 operations.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company's life insurance subsidiary 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 or held to maturity investment, or sale of
other investments.  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
and the maintenance of existing policies.

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 predominately
in fixed maturity securities in accordance with the
requirements and laws governing the life insurance
subsidiary.  Bonds owned by the insurance subsidiary
amounted to $39,461,000, at amortized cost as of December
31, 1994.  Generally all bonds owned by life insurance
companies are rated by the National Association of
Insurance Commissioners (NAIC).  Under this rating system,
there are six categories used for rating bonds.  At
December 31, 1994, 4.8% ($1,893,000) and at December 31,
1993, 7.4% ($898,000) of the Company's total invested
assets were invested in bonds in rating categories three
through six which are considered non-investment grade.

The Company's interest sensitive type products, primarily
annuities and interest sensitive whole life, compete with
other financial products such as bank certificates of
deposit, brokerage sponsored money market funds as well as
competing life insurance company products.  Based on

<PAGE>
preliminary information, the Company plans to hold its
fixed income securities, including high-yield securities,
in its portfolio 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 cash equivalents in investment grade securities before
liquidating high-yield securities.

Lapse rates measure the amount of insurance terminated
during a particular period.  The Company's lapse rate for
life insurance in 1994 was 8%, as compared to a rate of 9%
in 1993.  The Company's primary needs for liquidity are for
debt service, maintenance of statutory capital and surplus
for its life insurance subsidiary and administrative
expenses and cost of cemetery and mortuary services to be
rendered.  

On February 12, 1993, Security National Life Insurance
Company entered into a purchase and sale agreement for the
Pinehill Business Park located in Murray, Utah.  The
purchase price was $2,150,000 with debt financing of
$1,500,000 through a local bank.  As of December 31, 1994,
about 95% of the available space was occupied.

On July 31, 1993, the Company contributed assets of
approximately $268,000 to its new wholly-owned subsidiary,
Security National Mortgage Company.  Security National
Mortgage Company operates in two principal markets:
refinancing of mortgage loans and origination of mortgage
loans.  These loans are sold on the secondary market to
investors with servicing obligations released.  Security
National Life Insurance Company intends to act as a
warehouse lender for the mortgage loans.  By becoming a
warehouse lender, Security National Life Insurance Company
can obtain a long term interest rate on its assets without
committing the funds for a long period of time.

On January 10, 1994, the Company acquired Sunset Funeral
Home, Inc. ("Sunset"), which owns and operates a mortuary
in Phoenix, Arizona, known as Camelback Sunset Funeral
Home.  As consideration for the purchase, the Company paid
$140,000 in cash, issued 25,000 shares of Class A Common
Stock, assumed an existing debt of $588,000, and entered
into an agreement to pay the seller the sum of $3,500 in
monthly installments during his lifetime up to a maximum of
$560,000.  In the event of the death of the seller prior to
the payment of $560,000, the remaining unpaid balance of
such amount would be paid to his daughter.  Repairs and
maintenance of approximately $80,000 will be required to
bring the mortuary facility to a fully operating funeral
home.

On December 21, 1994, the Company purchase all of the
outstanding shares of common stock of Capital Investors
Life Insurance Company ("Capital Investors Life") from
Suncoast Financial Corporation ("Suncoast Financial").  As
consideration for the purchase of the shares, the Company
paid $5,231,000 in cash, issued 40,000 shares of its Class
A Common Stock, and entered into a profit sharing agreement
providing for 33-1/3% of the profits from new post-closing
sales of existing Capital Investors Life plans of insurance
to be paid as earned.  An aggregate of $2,700,000 of the
cash consideration was borrowed by the  Company  from  Key

<PAGE>
Bank, Crossroads Office, Salt Lake City, Utah, and is
payable by the Company in accordance with the terms of a
Promissory Note dated December 16, 1994, bearing interest
at one-half percent per annum above the bank's prime rate,
and payable in monthly payments in the amount of $36,420,
with the unpaid principal balance, together with accrued
interest and other charges, due and payable on December 16,
1999.  The remainder of the purchase price came from the
Company's internal funds.

On February 3, 1995, the Company purchased approximately
100 acres of real property (the "Property") located in San
Diego, California, approximately 35 acres of which will be
used for the development of a cemetery.  The purchase price
of the property was $1,172,000, $100,000 of which was paid
in cash and the balance of $1,062,000, together with
interest thereon at the rate of nine percent (9%) per
annum, will be paid in 12 monthly payments of $5,000,
thereafter in equal monthly payments of $10,000; however,
interest shall not accrue on any part of the principal
balance until February 3, 1996, and a principal payment of
$100,000 is to be made 15 days after the date the
California Cemetery Board approves the Company's
application for Certificate of Authority, or February 3,
1996, whichever occurs first.

The Company has invested and deferred approximately
$859,000 in option fees and costs of various regulatory
studies, including environmental, water, and archaeological
studies.  The Company is seeking approval from the federal
government and the California Cemetery Board to operate a
cemetery.  The development of the cemetery will be financed
internally as well as through a private offering.  Initial
development of 35 acres to operate as a cemetery would cost
approximately $500,000.

On March 8, 1995, the Company was issued 97,800 shares of
common stock of Greer-Wilson Funeral Home, Inc. ("Greer-
Wilson"), representing 97.8% of the total issued and
outstanding shares of common stock of Greer-Wilson after
the issuance of such shares.  In consideration for the
purchase of such shares, the Company agreed to contribute
$430,000 to Greer-Wilson for the payment of its accounts
payable, or to assume payment of the accounts payable, and
to pay or refinance Greer-Wilson's existing mortgage loan
indebtedness; and to pay the former President and his wife
$6,000 per month over a ten year period for providing
consulting services.  The Company also loaned the former
President and his wife the sum of $200,000 to be paid on
March 8, 2005, together with interest thereon at the rate
of seven percent (7%) per annum.  This obligation is
collateralized by a pledge of 2,200 shares of the Company's
common stock that is currently owned by Mr. Greer.

At December 31, 1994, $8,570,000 of the Company's
consolidated stockholders' equity represents the statutory
stockholders' equity of the Company's insurance subsidiary
Security National Life.  Security National Life cannot pay
a dividend to its parent company without the approval of
insurance regulatory authorities.

            INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT


Board of Directors
Security National Financial Corporation:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance
sheets of Security National Financial Corporation and
subsidiaries as of December 31, 1994, and 1993, and the
related consolidated statements of earnings, stockholders'
equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the

the financial statement schedules listed in the Index at
Item 8.  These financial statements and schedules are the
responsibility of the Company's management.  Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements and schedules based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally
accepted auditing standards.  Those standards require that
we plan and perform the audit 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 consolidated financial statements
referred to above present fairly, in all material respects,
the consolidated financial position of Security National
Financial Corporation and subsidiaries at December 31, 1994
and 1993, and the consolidated results of their operations
and their cash flows for each of the three years in the
period ended December 31, 1994, in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.  Also, in our
opinion, the related financial statement schedules, when
considered in relation to the basic financial statements
taken as a whole, present fairly, in all material respects,
the information set forth therein.

              Years Ended December 31, 1994, 1993, and 1992


1) Significant Accounting Principles
- ------------------------------------
Basis of Presentation

Significant accounting policies followed by the Company
are summarized below.  The accompanying consolidated
financial statements have been prepared in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles which, for
the life insurance subsidiaries, differ from statutory
accounting principles prescribed or permitted by
regulatory authorities.

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements
include the accounts and operations of Security National
Financial Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiaries
and their wholly-owned subsidiaries, except as noted,
(the "Company") at December 31, 1994, as follows:

   Security National Life Insurance Company
   Capital Investors Life Insurance Company ("Capital
     Investors Life")
   Memorial Estates, Inc.
   Memorial Mortuary
   Evergreen Memorial Park (66 2/3% owned)
   Paradise Chapel Funeral Home
   California Memorial Estates, Inc.
   Cottonwood Mortuary, Inc.
      Deseret Memorial
      Holladay Cottonwood Memorial Foundation
   Holladay Memorial Park
   Sunset Funeral Home, Inc.
   Security National Mortgage Company

All significant intercompany transactions and accounts
have been eliminated in consolidation.

Effective December 21, 1994, the Company purchased all of
the outstanding shares of common stock of Capital
Investors Life for a total cost of $6,395,000 which
included 40,000 shares of the Company's Class A Common
Stock valued at $160,000.  The acquisition was accounted
for using the purchase method.  As a result of the
acquisition Capital Investors Life was redomesticated to
Utah on December 28, 1994.  The assets and liabilities of
Capital Investors Life have been included in the
Company's balance sheet at December 31, 1994.  The
results of operations of Capital Investors Life were not
included in the financial statements of the Company for
the year ended December 31, 1994, since the effective
date for accounting purposes was Decemeber 31, 1994.

The unaudited consolidated pro forma results of
operations assuming consummation of the purchase as of
January 1, 1993 are summarized as follows:

The unaudited consolidated pro forma results of
operations are not necessarily indicative of the results
that would have occurred had the two companies been
combined for the years presented nor of future results of
operations.

Effective January 10, 1994, the Company purchased all of
the outstanding shares of common stock of Camelback
Sunset Funeral Home for a total cost of $78,427 which
included 25,000 shares of the Company's Class A Common
Stock valued at $75,000.  The acquisition was accounted
for using the purchase method.  The assets, liabilities,
and equity of Camelback Sunset Funeral Home have been
included in the Company's balance sheet at December 31,
1994.  The results of operations of Camelback Sunset
Funeral Home for the twelve months ended December 31,
1994, were included in the consolidated financial
statements of the Company.

Investments

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No.
115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and
Equity Securities", was adopted by the Company as of
January 1, 1994. In accordance with SFAS No. 115, the
Company's prior-year financial statements have not been
restated to reflect the change in accounting principle.
Under SFAS No. 115, securities are classified as
available-for-sale, held-to-maturity, or trading. The
Company has the ability and intent to hold to maturity
its fixed maturity investments and, accordingly, has
classified all of its fixed maturities security portfolio
as "held-to-maturity".  Equity securities have been
classified as "available for sale". Securities classified
as available for sale are carried at fair value and
unrealized gains and losses on such securities are
reported as a separate component of stockholders' equity. 
Securities classified as held-to-maturity are carried at
cost.  Because the Company classified their entire fixed
maturity portfolio as held to maturity there was no
effect on stockholders' equity as a result of the
adoption.  With respect to 1992 and 1993, SFAS No. 115
was not adopted and, therefore, the investments were not
actually "held-to-maturity", and "available for sale" but
were rather held for investment and actively managed,
respectively.

Investments are shown on the following basis:

Fixed maturity securities held to maturity - at cost,
- ------------------------------------------
adjusted for amortization of premium or accretion of
discount.  Although the Company has the ability and
intent to hold these investments to maturity, there could
occur infrequent and unusual conditions in which it would
sell certain of these securities.  Those conditions would
include unforeseen changes in asset quality, significant
changes in tax laws affecting the changes in regulatory
capital requirements or permissible investments, at which
time the carrying value is expected to be realized.

Equity securities available for sale - at fair value,
- ------------------------------------
which is based upon quoted trading prices.  Changes in
face values net of deferred income taxes are reported as

unrealized appreciation or depreciation directly to 
stockholders' equity and, accordingly have no effect on
net income.

Mortgage loans on real estate - at unpaid principal
- -----------------------------
balances, adjusted for amortization of premium or
accretion of discount, less allowance for possible
losses.

Real estate - at cost, less accumulated depreciation
- -----------
provided on a straight-line basis over the estimated
useful lives of the properties, and net of allowance for
decline in value.

Policy and other loans - at the aggregate unpaid
- ----------------------
balances.

Short-term investments - consists of certificates of
- ----------------------
deposit and commercial paper, carried at cost which
approximates fair value.

Restricted Assets of the Cemeteries and Mortuaries
- --------------------------------------------------
Consists of cash, mortgage loans, mutual funds which are
carried at cost, fixed maturity securities at cost,
adjusted for amortization of premium or accretion of
discount and equity securities at fair value, which is 
based upon quoted trading prices.

Realized gains and losses on sales of investments
- -------------------------------------------------
Realized gains and losses on sales of investments, and
declines in value considered to be other than temporary,
are recognized in operations on the specific
identification basis.

Recognition of Insurance Premiums

Premiums for traditional life insurance products, which
include those products with fixed and guaranteed premiums
and benefits and consist principally of whole life
insurance policies, limited-payment life insurance
policies, and certain annuities with life contingencies,
are recognized as revenues when due from policyholders. 
Revenues for interest sensitive insurance policies (which
include interest sensitive life policies, deferred
annuities and annuities without life contingencies)
consist of policy charges for the cost of insurance,
policy administration charges, and surrender charges
assessed against policyholder account balances during the
period.

Deferred Policy Acquisition Costs and Cost of Insurance
Acquired

Commissions and other costs, net of commission and
expense allowances for reinsurance ceded, that vary with
and are primarily related to the production of new and
renewal insurance business have been deferred.  Deferred
policy acquisition costs for traditional life insurance
are being amortized over the premium-paying period of the
related policies using assumptions consistent with those

<PAGE>

                       SECURITY NATIONAL FINANCIAL CORPORATION
                                 AND SUBSIDIARIES
                     Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements


used in computing policy benefit reserves.  For interest
sensitive insurance products, deferred policy acquisition
costs are being amortized generally in proportion to the
present value of expected gross profits from surrender
charges and investment, mortality and expense margins. 
This amortization is adjusted when estimates of current
or future gross profits to be realized from a group of
products are reevaluated.

Cost of insurance acquired is the present value of
estimated future profits of the acquired business and is
amortized similar to deferred policy acquisition costs. 
These assets are stated at a cost of $3,488,383.  The
interest rate used to record the acquisition and to be
used to amortize assets in future periods is
approximately 9%.  Amortization net of accrued interest
is expected to approximate $502,000, $378,000, $377,000,
$365,000, and $305,000 for the years 1995, 1996, 1997,
1998, and 1999, respectively.

Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment is recorded at cost. 
Depreciation is calculated principally on the
straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of
the assets.

Policyholder Reserves and Policyholder Funds

The liabilities for future policy benefits for
traditional life insurance are computed using a net level
method, including assumptions as to investment yields,
mortality, morbidity, withdrawals, and other assumptions
based on the insurance subsidiaries' experience, modified
as necessary to give effect to anticipated trends and to
include provisions for possible unfavorable deviations. 
Reserve interest assumptions are graded and range from
4.5% to 10%.  Such liabilities are, for some plans,
graded to equal statutory values or cash values at or
prior to maturity.  The range of assumed interest rate
for all traditional life and health insurance policy
reserves was 4.5% to 9.1% in 1994, 4.5% to 9.2% in 1993,
and 4.5% to 9.3% in 1992.  Benefit reserves for
traditional limited-payment life insurance policies
include the deferred portion of the premiums received
during the premium-paying period; those deferred premiums
are recognized in income over the life of the policies. 
Policy benefit claims are charged to expense in the
period that the claims are incurred.  All insurance-
related benefits and expenses are reported net of
reinsurance ceded.

Policy liabilities for interest sensitive insurance
products are computed under a retrospective deposit
method and represent policy account balances before
applicable surrender charges.  Policy benefits and claims
that are charged to expense include benefit claims
incurred in the period in excess of related policy
account balances.  Interest crediting rates for interest
sensitive insurance products ranged from 4% to 6.25% in
1994, 4% to 7% in 1993, and 4% to 7.5% in 1992.

                      Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements


Participating Insurance

Participating business constitutes 12%, 11%, and 10% of
the life insurance in force, for 1994, 1993 and 1992
respectively.  The provision for policyholders' dividends
included in policyholder obligations is based on dividend
scales anticipated by management.  Amounts to be paid are
determined annually by the Board of Directors.

Reinsurance

The Company follows the procedure of reinsuring risks in
excess of $50,000.  The Company is liable for those
amounts in the event the reinsurers are unable to pay
their portion of the claims.

The Company has entered into a coinsurance agreement with
an unaffiliated insurance company under which the Company
assumed 100% of the risk for certain life insurance
policies and certain other policy-related liabilities of
the insurance company.

Reinsurance premiums, commissions, expense reimbursements
and reserves related to reinsured business are accounted
for on a basis consistent with those used in accounting
for the original policies issued and the terms of the
reinsurance contracts.  Premiums ceded to other companies
are reported as a reduction of premium income.  Expense
allowances received in connection with reinsurance ceded
are accounted for as a reduction of the related policy
acquisition costs and are deferred and amortized
accordingly.

Cemetery and Mortuary Operations

Land and improvements used in cemetery operations are
stated at cost and charged to operations when sold based
on the number of spaces available for sale.  Mausoleum
costs are charged to operations when sold based on the
number of niches available for sale.  Perpetual care is
maintained on sold spaces as discussed in Note 7.

Certain cemetery products are sold on a pre-need basis. 
Revenues from pre-need cemetery sales are recognized at
the time of sale.  Related costs required to establish
the liability for estimated future costs of pre-need
sales are also recorded at the time of sale.  This
liability relates to promised merchandise and funeral
services and is increased or decreased each period as
current costs change.  A corresponding charge is made to
operations.  Certain mortuary products and services are
also sold on a pre-need basis.  Pre-need mortuary sales
are fully reserved at the time of the sale.  Revenue on
pre-need mortuary services is recognized at the time the
service is performed.  Sales contracts average 6 years in
duration.  Through 1990, these contracts were
non-interest bearing and the related receivables were
discounted using current market rates.  Resulting
discount amounts are amortized into operations as other
income over the terms of the contracts.  Beginning in
1991, all pre-need sales contracts bear interest at 8%.

<PAGE>

                    SECURITY NATIONAL FINANCIAL CORPORATION
                               AND SUBSIDIARIES
                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

The Company is required to place specified amounts into
restricted asset accounts for products sold on a pre-need
basis.  Income from assets placed in these restricted
asset accounts are used to offset required increases to
the estimated future liability.  Management believes that
amounts placed into these accounts are sufficient to
fulfill all future pre-need contract obligations.

Revenues and costs for at-need sales are recorded when
the services are performed.

The Company, through its mortuary and cemetery
operations, provides a guaranteed funeral arrangement
wherein a prospective customer can receive future goods
and services at guaranteed prices.  To accomplish this,
the Company, through its life insurance operations, sells
to the customer an increasing benefit life insurance
policy that is assigned to the mortuaries.  If at the
time of need, the policyholder/potential mortuary
customer utilizes one of the Company's facilities, the
guaranteed funeral arrangement contract that has been
assigned will provide the funeral goods and services at
the contracted price.  The increasing life insurance
policy will cover the difference between the original
contract prices and current prices.  Risks may arise if
the difference cannot be fully met by the life insurance
policy.  However, management believes that given current
inflation rates and related price increases of goods and
services, the risk of exposure is minimal.

Mortgage Operations

Mortgage company fee income is generated through the
origination and refinancing of mortgage loans and is
deferred until such loans are sold.

Excess of Cost Over Net Assets of Acquired Subsidiaries

Previous acquisitions have been accounted for as
purchases under which assets acquired and liabilities
assumed were recorded at their fair values.  The excess
of cost over net assets of acquired subsidiaries is being
amortized over a range of fifteen to thirty years using
the straight-line method.  Accumulated amortization was
$532,140 and $483,774 at December 31, 1994 and 1993.

Land and Improvements

Included in land and improvements for sale are certain
costs amounting to $859,116 and $721,988 at December 31,
1994 and 1993, incurred to pursue the acquisition and
development of certain cemetery property in the San Diego
area.  Deferral of these costs have been made pending
successful acquisition and development of the property. 
Acquisition of the property was completed subsequent to
December 31, 1994.

Income Taxes

Federal income taxes include taxes currently payable plus
deferred taxes related to the tax effect of temporary
differences in the financial reporting basis and tax
basis of assets and liabilities.  Such temporary

<PAGE>
differences are related principally to the deferral of
policy acquisition costs and the provision for future
policy benefits in the insurance operations.

Earnings Per Common Share

Earnings per common share are based on the weighted
average number of shares outstanding during the year
after giving effect to the assumed conversion of Class C
Common Stock to Class A Common Stock, the acquisition of
treasury stock, and the retroactive effect of stock
dividends declared for each year presented.  Outstanding
stock options are not included in the computation when
the effect is antidilutive.  The weighted average number
of shares are 3,476,544 in 1994, 3,245,899 in 1993 and
3,092,284 in 1992.

Reclassifications

Certain amounts in prior years have been reclassified to
conform with the current year presentation.

New Accounting Standards

During 1993, the FASB issued Statement 114, "Accounting
by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan" as amended in
October 1994 by Statement 118, "Accounting by Creditors
for Impairment of a Loan -- Income Recognition" which are
effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15,
1994.  The Company has not yet adopted these new
standards; however, the effect on operations and
stockholders' equity is not considered to be significant.

The fair values for fixed maturity securities are based on quoted market
prices, when available.  For fixed maturity securities not actively traded,
fair values are estimated using values obtained from independent pricing
services, or in the case of private placements, are estimated by discounting
expected future cash flows using a current market valule applicable to the
coupon rate, credit and maturity of the investments.  The fair values for the
equity securities are based on quoted market prices.

The change in unrealized appreciation of investments, as
shown in the accompanying consolidated statements of
stockholders' equity, relates entirely to equity
securities for 1994, 1993, and 1992.

Concentrations of credit risk arise when a number of
mortgage loan debtors have similar economic
characteristics that would cause their ability to meet
contractual obligations to be similarly affected by
changes in economic conditions.  Although the Company has
a diversified mortgage loan portfolio consisting of
residential and commercial loans and requires collateral
on all real estate exposures, a substantial portion of
its debtors' ability to honor obligations is reliant on
the economic stability of the geographic region in which
the debtors do business.  The Company has 95% of its
mortgage loans in the state of Utah with one mortgage
loan to Wasatch Land and Development which constitutes
26% of the total mortgage loan balance.

Memorial owns and operates several endowment care
cemeteries, for which it has established and maintains an
endowment care fund.  Per statutory requirement, Memorial
records a liability to the fund of $14 for each space
sold after 1979, $42 for spaces sold after July 1, 1983
and $50 for spaces sold after May 1, 1993.  For each
space sold in the mausoleum, $30 is recognized as a
liability.  Memorial is not required to transfer assets
to the fund until the spaces are paid for.  Memorial is
not liable for any maintenance costs exceeding the
stipulated statutory rate.

The Company has established and maintained certain
restricted asset accounts to provide for future
merchandise obligations incurred in connection with its
pre-need sales.  Investments in these restricted assets
were $2,482,068 and $2,086,100 at December 31, 1994 and
1993, respectively.

In addition to the above mentioned assets, $286,990 of
accounts receivable have been pledged to the restricted
asset accounts.  Memorial transfers assets to the
restricted asset accounts as merchandise payments are
received.

8)  Income Taxes
- ----------------
Effective January 1, 1993, the Company adopted Statement
of Financial Accounting Standard No. 109, "Accounting for
Income Taxes" after previously following SFAS No. 96. 
Under SFAS No. 109 and SFAS No. 96, the liability method
is used in accounting for income taxes.  Under this
method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured
using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in
effect when the differences are expected to reverse. 
There were no changes to the accompanying financial
statements by adopting SFAS No. 109.

The other benefit recorded in 1992 of $246,000 primarily
results from the re-estimation of deferred tax
liabilities based upon the accumulation of identified
temporary differences and applying the current effective
tax rates with the resulting reduction in such deferred
tax amounts being recorded in 1992 operations.

               Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements


A portion of the life insurance subsidiaries income
earned prior to 1984 was not subject to current taxation
but was accumulated for tax purposes, in a
"policyholders' surplus account."  Under provisions of
the Internal Revenue Code, the policyholders' surplus
account was frozen at its December 31, 1983 balance and
will be taxed generally only when distributed.  As of
December 31, 1994, the policyholders' surplus accounts
approximated $650,000 for Security National Life
Insurance Company and $3,365,000.

The non-insurance affiliates have tax operating loss
carryforwards available to offset future taxable income
amounting to approximately $905,000.  Such losses will
begin to expire if unused by 2002.

The insurance companies have remaining loss carry
forwards for tax purposes of approximately $280,000 for
Security National Life and $449,000 for Capital Investors
Life for a total of $729,000.  Such losses will begin to
expire if unused by 2008.  Capital Investors Life's loss
carryforward originated in a separate return limitation
year.

The Company paid no income taxes in 1994, 1993, and 1992.

9) Reinsurance, Commitments and Contingencies
- --------------------------------------------
Security National Life follows the procedure of
reinsuring risks in excess of a specified limit which was
$50,000 at December 31, 1994.  Security National Life is
contingently liable for these amounts in the event such
reinsurers are unable to pay their portion of the claims. 
At December 31, 1994 and 1993, the contingent liabilities
for such future policy benefits aggregated $5,798,680 and
$82,030, respectively, all of which relate to life and
accident and health insurance.  These amounts pertain to
insurance in force aggregating $35,073,111 and
$16,396,117.

The Company has also assumed insurance from other
companies (credit life and credit accident and health)
having insurance in force amounting to $69,998,195 at
December 31, 1994 and $135,558 at December 31, 1993.

The Company is a defendant in various legal actions
arising from the normal conduct of business.  Management
believes that none of the actions will result in any
liability materially in excess of the provisions that
have been made.

The Company has committed to purchase cemetery property
in the San Diego area.  Acquisition of the property was
completed subsequent to December 31, 1994.

10) Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP)
- ---------------------------------------
The Company and its subsidiaries have a noncontributory
ESOP for all eligible employees.  Eligible employees are
primarily those with more than one year of service and
who work in excess of 1,040 hours per year. 
Contributions, which may be in cash or stock of the

                            AND SUBSIDIARIES
                Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements


Company, are determined annually by the Board of
Directors.  The Company's contributions are allocated to
eligible employees based on the ratio of each eligible
employee's compensation to total compensation for all
eligible employees during each year.  ESOP contribution
expense totaled $54,288, $146,039, and $139,619 for 1994,
1993, and 1992, respectively.  At December 31, 1994 the
ESOP held 553,365 shares of Class A and 472,716 shares of
Class C common stock of the Company.  All shares held by
the ESOP have been allocated to the participating
employees and all shares held by the ESOP are considered
outstanding for purposes of computing earnings per share.

11)  Capital Stock
- ------------------

The Company has two classes of common stock with shares
outstanding, Class A and Class C.  Class C shares vote
share for share with the Class A shares on all matters
except election of one-third of the directors who are
elected solely by the  Class A shares, but generally are
entitled to a lower dividend participation rate.  Class C
is convertible into Class A at any time on a five to one
ratio, however, the ability to convert Class A into Class
C is extremely limited.

Shareholders of both classes of common stock have
received 5% stock dividends in 1994, 1993, 1992, 1991,
and 1990, as authorized by the Company's Board of
Directors.  The Company has Class B Common Stock of $1.00
par value, 5,000,000 shares authorized, of which none are
issued.  Class B shares are non-voting stock except to
any proposed amendment to the Articles of Incorporation
which would affect Class B Common Stock.

In 1987, the Company adopted the 1987 Incentive Stock
Option Plan (the 1987 Plan).  The 1987 Plan provides that
an aggregate of 285,000 shares of the Class A Common
Stock of the Company may be optioned to certain officers
and key employees of the Company.  The Plan establishes a
Stock Option Plan Committee which selects the employees
to whom the options will be granted and determines the
price of the stock.  The Plan establishes the minimum
purchase price of the stock at an amount which is not
less than 100% of the fair market value of the stock
(110% for employees owning more than 10% of the total
combined voting power of all classes of stock).  The Plan
terminates ten years from its effective date and options
granted are non-transferable.  The Plan also includes a
Stock Appreciation Right which permits the holder of the
option to elect to receive cash, amounting to the
difference between the option price and the fair market
value of the stock at the time of the exercise, or a
lesser amount of stock without payment, upon exercise of
the option.

As of December 31, 1994, none of the options granted have
been exercised or cancelled.  All options are currently
exercisable.

On December 10, 1992, the Company's Board of Directors
elected to make a Tender Offer to all shareholders of the
Company's Class A and Class C Common Stock with less than
twenty-five shares and ninety-five shares respectively. 
The offering price was $2.38 cash for Class A Common
Stock and $.48 cash for Class C Common Stock for
shareholders' of record on January 15, 1993.   The
purpose of the Tender Offer was to reduce the high cost
of servicing small shareholders and enable such
shareholders to dispose of their shares without incurring
odd lot transaction costs.  The transaction has been
reflected in the balance sheet as of December 31, 1992.

On June 21, 1993, the Board of Directors adopted the
Security National Financial Corporation 1993 Stock
Incentive Plan (the "1993 Plan"), which reserves 300,000
shares of Class A Common Stock for issuance thereunder. 
The 1993 Plan was approved at the annual meeting of the
stockholders held on June 21, 1993.  The 1993 Plan allows
the Company to grant options and issue shares as a means
of providing equity incentives to key personnel, giving
them a proprietary interest in the Company and its
success and progress.

The 1993 Plan provides for the grant of options and the
award or sale of stock to officers, directors, and
employees of the Company.  Both "incentive stock
options," as defined under Section 422A of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986 (the "Code"), and "non-qualified
options" may be granted pursuant to the 1993 Plan.  On
April 29, 1993, the Company granted options for 90,000
shares under the 1993 Plan to George R. Quist and William
C. Sargent.  Mr. Quist was granted options to purchase
50,000 shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock at an
exercise price of $3.44 per share.  Mr. Sargent was
granted options to purchase 40,000 shares of Class A
Common Stock at an exercise price of $3.13 per share. 
The exercise prices for the options granted are equal to
or greater than the fair market value of the stock
subject to such options as of the date of grant, as
determined by the Company's Board of Directors.  Of these
recently granted options, 50% were exercisable on April
29, 1993 and the remaining 50% were exercisable on April
29, 1994.

                     Notes to Consolidated Financial Corporation



The options granted on April 29, 1993, were to reward
certain officers and key employees who have been employed
by the Company for a number of years and to help the
Company retain these officers by providing them with an
additional incentive to contribute to the success of the
Company.

The 1993 Plan is to be administered by the Board of
Directors or by a committee designated by the Board.  The
terms of options granted or stock awards or sales
effected under the 1993 Plan are to be determined by the
Board of Directors or its committee.  No options may be
exercised for a term of more than ten years from the date
of grant.  Options intended as incentive stock options
may be issued only to employees, and must meet certain
conditions imposed by the code, including a requirement
that the option exercise price be no less than the fair
market value of the option shares on the date of grant. 
The 1993 Plan provides that the exercise price for
non-qualified options will be not less than at least 50%
of the fair market value of the stock subject to such
option as of the date of grant of such options, as
determined by the Company's Board of Directors.

The 1993 Plan has a term of ten years.  The Board of
Directors may amend or terminate the 1993 Plan at any
time.

12)  Statutory Financial Information
- ------------------------------------

The Company's insurance subsidiaries are domiciled in
Utah and prepare their statutory basis financial
statements in accordance with accounting practices
prescribed or permitted by the Utah Insurance Department. 
"Prescribed" statutory accounting practices include state
laws, regulations, and general administrative rules, as
well as a variety of publications of the National
Association of Insurance Commissioners ("NAIC"). 
"Permitted" statutory accounting practices encompass all
accounting practices that are not prescribed; such
practices may differ from state to state, may differ from
company to company within a state, and may change in the
future.  The NAIC currently is in the process of
codifying statutory accounting practices, the result of
which is expected to constitute the only source of
"prescribed" statutory accounting practices. 
Accordingly, that project, which is expected to be
completed in 1996, will likely change, to some extent,
prescribed statutory accounting practices, and may result
in changes to the accounting practices that insurance
enterprises use to prepare their statutory financial
statements.  Statutory net income and statutory
stockholders' equity for Security National Life, which
includes its subsidiary Capital Investors Life, as
reported to state regulatory authorities, is presented
below:

                           AND SUBSIDIARIES
               Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Generally, the net assets of Security National Life are
available for transfer to the Company are limited to the
amounts that Security National Life's net assets, as
determined in accordance with statutory accounting
practices, exceed minimum statutory capital requirements;
however, payments of such amounts as dividends may be
subject to approval by regulatory authorities.

The Utah Insurance Department imposes minimum risk-based
capital requirements on insurance enterprises that were
developed by the NAIC.  The formulas for determining the
amount of risk-based capital ("RBC") specify various
weighting factors that are applied to financial balances
or various levels of activity based on the perceived
degree of risk.  Regulatory compliance is determined by a
ratio (the "Ratio") of the enterprise's regulatory total
adjusted capital, as defined by the NAIC, to its
authorized control level, RBC, as defined by the NAIC. 
Enterprises below specific trigger points or ratios are
classified within certain levels, each of which requires
specified corrective action.

Each of the Company's insurance subsidiaries has a Ratio
that is greater than 300% of the minimum RBC
requirements; accordingly, the Company's subsidiaries
meet the RBC requirements.

<PAGE>
      As a material inducement to Seller, without which
Seller would not have agreed to sell the Property to Buyer
on the terms set forth herein, Buyer, for itself and its
partners, employees, agents, attorneys, shareholders,
successors and assigns (collectively, "Releasing Parties"),
hereby fully and forever releases Seller, and each of
Seller's partners, employees, agents, attorneys,
shareholders, successors and assigns ("Released Parties"),
from any and all present or future liability, claims,
demands, actions, causes of action and rights (contingent,
accrued, inchoate, or otherwise) of any kind, whether

against any of the Released Parties, arising out of or
connected in any way with the actual or alleged presence,
use, generation, storage, transportation, release or
discharge of Hazardous Materials on, beneath, above, or in
the vicinity of the Property.

      Buyer waives and releases Seller from any and all
present or future Claims it may have against the Released
Parties arising under the Comprehensive Environmental

whether statutory or common law, ordinance or regulation,
pertaining to the presence, use, generation, storage,
transportation, release, discharge, or cleanup (including
paying the costs thereof) of Hazardous Materials on,
beneath, above, or in the vicinity of the Property.  In
connection with the foregoing releases, Buyer expressly
waives all rights and benefits under California Civil Code
section 1542, which provides as follows:

      "A general release does not extend to claims
      which the creditor does not know or suspect to
      exist in his favor at the time of executing the
      release, which if known by him must have
      materially affected his settlement with the
      debtor."

Buyer represents that it has had the opportunity to discuss
the meaning and effect of this waiver with legal counsel. 
Buyer warrants that this waiver is informed, knowing and
voluntary.

provided for disposition of proceeds of fire or other

its due date, Beneficiary does not waive his right either to
require prompt payment when due of all other sums so secured
or to declare for failure so to pay.

(4)   At any time, or from time to time, without liability
therefor, and without notice, upon written request of

reconveyance may be described as "the person or persons
legally entitled thereto".  Five years after issuance of a
full reconveyance, Trustee may destroy said note and this
Deed of Trust, unless directed in such request to retain
them.

notice of default and of election to cause said property to
be sold, which notice Trustee shall cause to be filed for
record.  Beneficiary also shall deposit with Trustee this
Deed of Trust, said note and all documents evidencing
expenditure secured hereby.  After the lapse of such time as
may then be required by law following the recordation of
said notice of default, and notice of sale having been given
as then required by law, Trustee, without demand on trustor,
shall sell said property at the time and place fixed by it
in said notice of sale, either as a whole or in separate
parcels, and in such order as it may determine, at public
auction to the highest bidder for cash in lawful money of
the United

<PAGE>
States, payable at the time of sale.  Trustee may, from time
to time, postpone the sale of all, or nay portion of said
property by the publication, prior to the date of sale so
advertised, of one notice of postponement in the same
newspaper or newspapers in which the original notice of sale
is so postponed, or is postponed in any other manner, or if
the sale for any reason is not held within one year from the
tie set for the first sale, the Trustee, at his election
shall have the right to again give notice of sale as then
required by law for an original sale.  Trustee shall deliver
to such purchaser its deed conveying the property so sold,
but without any covenant or warranty, express or implied. 
The recitals in such deed of any matters or facts shall be
conclusive proof of the truthfulness thereof.  Any person,
including Trustor, Trustee or Beneficiary as herein defined,
may purchase at such sale.

After deducting all costs, fees and expenses of Trustee and
of this Trust, including cost of title in connection with
sale, Trustee shall apply the proceeds of sale to payment of
all sums expended under the terms hereof, not then repaid,
with accrued interest at seven percent per annum; all other
sums then secured hereby; and the remainder, if any, to the
person or persons legally entitled thereto.

(7)   Beneficiary may from time to time, by instrument in
writing, substitute a successor or successors to any Trustee
named herein or acting hereunder; which instrument when
executed, acknowledged and recorded in the office of the
Recorder of the county or counties where said property is
situated, shall be conclusive proof of proper substitution
of such successor Trustee or Trustees, who shall, without
conveyance from the Trustee predecessor, succeed to all its
title, estate, rights, powers and duties.  Said instrument
must contain the name of the original Trustor, Trustee and
Beneficiary hereunder, the book and page where this Deed of
Trust is recorded, and the name and address of the new
Trustee.  If notice of default shall have been recorded,
this power of substitution cannot be exercised until after
the costs, fees and expenses of the then acting Trustee
shall have been paid to such Trustee, who shall endorse
receipt thereof upon such instrument of substitution.  The
procedure herein provided for substitution of Trustees shall
be exclusive of all other provisions of substitution,
statutory or otherwise.

(8)   This Deed of Trust applies to, inures to the benefit
of, and binds all parties hereto, their heirs, legalese,
devisees, administrators, executors, successors and assigns. 
The term "Beneficiary" shall mean the owner and holder,
including pledgees, of the note secured hereby, whether or
not named as Beneficiary herein.  In this Deed of Trust,
whenever the context so requires, the masculine gender
includes the feminine and/or neuter, and the singular number
includes the plural.

(9)   Trustee accepts this Trust when this Deed of Trust,
duly executed and acknowledged is made a public record as
provided by law.  Trustee is not obligated to notify any
party hereto of a pending sale under any other Deed of
