                               PROSPECTUS SUMMARY
 
The following summary is qualified in its entirety by, and should be read in
conjunction with, the more detailed information included and incorporated by
reference in this Prospectus Supplement and the accompanying Prospectus. All
information in this Prospectus Supplement assumes that the Underwriters'
over-allotment option will not be exercised. See "Underwriting." References to
the "Company" or "SCI" herein should be read as referring to Service Corporation
International and its subsidiaries, except where the context indicates
otherwise. Unless otherwise noted, all monetary amounts in this Prospectus
Supplement refer to United States dollars.
 
                                  THE COMPANY
 
The Company is the largest provider of death care services and products in the
world. As of June 30, 1995, SCI owned and operated 1,561 funeral homes, 246
cemeteries (including 105 funeral home and cemetery combinations) and 110
crematoria located in the United States, the United Kingdom, Australia and
Canada. Included in such facilities are 92 funeral homes, 26 cemeteries and
three crematoria worldwide acquired during the six months ended June 30, 1995.
See "The Company -- International Expansion and Recent Acquisitions."
 
In August 1995, SCI acquired controlling ownership positions in Omnium de
Gestion et de Financement S.A. ("OGF") and Pompes Funebres Generales S.A.
("PFG") (collectively, "OGF/PFG"), which the Company believes together
constitute the largest funeral service organization in Europe. OGF/PFG operates
over 950 funeral service locations and performed over 154,000 funerals in France
in 1994, approximately 29% of the funerals in France. Additionally,
approximately 14,000 funerals were performed by OGF/PFG in other countries,
including Belgium, the Czech Republic, Italy, Singapore and Switzerland. See
"The Company -- International Expansion and Recent Acquisitions."
 
In June 1995, the Company entered into an agreement to acquire Gibraltar
Mausoleum Corporation and four related companies (collectively, "Gibraltar").
Gibraltar, a private funeral and cemetery company based in Indianapolis,
Indiana, owns and operates 23 funeral homes and 54 cemeteries. Subject to
certain conditions, including regulatory approval, the Company expects to
complete the Gibraltar acquisition during the fourth quarter of 1995. See "The
Company -- International Expansion and Recent Acquisitions."
 
SCI provides all professional services relating to funerals, burials and
cremations, including the use of funeral homes and motor vehicles, the
performance of cemetery interment services and the management and maintenance of
cemetery grounds. It sells caskets, coffins, burial vaults and garments,
cemetery interment rights, including mausoleum spaces and lawn crypts, stone and
bronze memorials, cremation receptacles and related merchandise. SCI sells its
services and products to client families both at and prior to the time of need.
In addition, SCI's finance subsidiary, Provident Services, Inc. ("Provident"),
provides financing to independent funeral home and cemetery operators.
 
SCI's strategy is to:
 
   o  Continue to expand through the acquisition and construction, both
      domestically and internationally, of funeral homes, cemeteries and
      crematoria in areas with demographics that SCI believes to be favorable;
 
   o  Increase the operating margins of its existing and acquired facilities by
      having those facilities share resources pursuant to SCI's cluster
      strategy;
 
   o  Increase revenue per location through the merchandising of a broad line
      of funeral and cemetery products and services, both on a pre-need and
      at-need basis; and
 
   o  Increase future volume and revenues through the sale of prearranged
      funeral services.
 
SCI's acquisition strategy focuses on acquiring premier funeral homes and
cemeteries in metropolitan areas with demographics that SCI believes to be
favorable and in which the cluster strategy can be implemented. SCI typically
retains former owners and key managers of acquired businesses in an effort to
assure that service quality is maintained and that the businesses' reputation,
heritage and local relationships remain intact. Acquired funeral homes and
cemeteries retain their original trade names in substantially all cases.

In August 1995, SCI acquired controlling ownership positions in OGF and PFG,
which the Company believes together constitute the largest funeral service
organization in Europe. OGF/PFG operates over 950 funeral service locations and
performed over 154,000 funerals in France in 1994, approximately 29% of the

FUNERAL SERVICE OPERATIONS
 
The funeral service operations consist of SCI's funeral homes, cemeteries and
related businesses. The operation is organized into six domestic regions and
four foreign regions (France, the United Kingdom, Australia and Canada), each of
which is under the direction of regional executive management with substantial
industry experience. Local funeral home and cemetery managers, under the
direction of regional management, receive support and resources from SCI's
headquarters in Houston, Texas and have substantial autonomy with respect to the
manner in which services are conducted.

Death Care Industry
The funeral industry is characterized by a large number of locally owned,
independent operations. To compete successfully, SCI's funeral homes must
maintain competitive prices, attractive, well-maintained and conveniently
located facilities, a good reputation and high professional standards. Heritage
and tradition can provide an established funeral home or cemetery with the
opportunity for repeat business from client families. Furthermore, an
established firm can generate future volume and revenues by successfully
marketing prearranged, pre-funded funeral services.
 
The cemetery industry is also characterized by a large number of locally owned
independent operations. SCI's cemetery properties compete with other cemeteries
in the same general area. To compete successfully, SCI's cemeteries must
maintain competitive prices, attractive and well-maintained properties, a good
reputation, an effective sales force and high professional standards.
 
The Company and the three other largest North American death care companies
control in the aggregate approximately eight percent of the funeral homes and
approximately five percent of the commercial cemeteries in North America. Based
upon industry estimates, these four companies represented less than 16% of 1994
North America death care industry revenues. The Company believes that based on
the total number of funeral services performed in 1994, the Company, including
companies acquired by it, performed 9%, 29%, 14% and 25% of the funeral services
in the United States and Canada, France, the United Kingdom and Australia,
respectively.
 
Cluster Strategy
The majority of SCI's funeral homes and cemeteries are managed in groups called
clusters. Clusters are established primarily in metropolitan areas to take
advantage of operational efficiencies, including the sharing of service
personnel, vehicles, preparation services, clerical staff and certain building
facility costs. The cluster strategy recognizes that, as SCI adds operations to
a geographic area in which SCI already operates, it will achieve additional
operating efficiencies through cost-sharing. In addition, SCI believes that it
is able, because of its size, to negotiate favorable supply arrangements with
volume discounts on supplies, including caskets. SCI has successfully
implemented the cluster strategy in its North American and Australian operations
and is implementing the cluster strategy in its United Kingdom operations. The
Company intends to implement the strategy in France and with respect to other
newly acquired operations. As of June 30, 1995, SCI operated approximately 250
clusters which ranged in size from two operations to 54 operations.
 
Pre-need Services
SCI is actively engaged in the marketing of prearranged funeral services. The
funds collected from prearranged funeral contracts are generally held in trust,
are used to purchase life insurance or annuity contracts or, with respect to
French contracts, are held in the Company's French insurance subsidiary. The
principal amount of a prearranged funeral contract will be received in cash by
an SCI funeral home and recorded as revenue by SCI at the time the funeral is
performed. Earnings on trust funds and increasing benefits under
insurance-funded contracts increase the revenue to be recognized at the time the
service is performed and historically have allowed the Company to more than
cover increases in the costs of providing funeral services. At June 30, 1995,
SCI's unfulfilled prearranged funeral contracts amounted to approximately $1.6
billion, and as of the date hereof, exceed $2.2 billion, including those related
to the Company's French operations. SCI's historical cancellation rate for all
prearranged funeral contracts approximates ten percent, for which a reserve has
been established.
 
Cemetery sales are often made pursuant to installment contracts providing for
monthly payments. The principal amount of these installment contracts is
recognized as revenue by SCI at the time of sale, net of an approximate eight
percent cancellation reserve that is based on historical results. A portion of
the proceeds from cemetery sales is generally required by law to be paid into
perpetual care trust funds. Earnings on perpetual care trust funds are used to
defray the maintenance cost of cemeteries. In addition, a portion of the
proceeds from the sale of pre-need cemetery merchandise may be required by law
to be paid into trust until the merchandise is purchased on behalf of the
customer.
 
Financial Services and Other Operations
Provident provides secured financing to independent funeral and cemetery
operators, primarily related to acquisitions. Provident had $204 million in
loans outstanding at June 30, 1995, funded primarily from SCI bank and
commercial paper borrowings. The amount and number of problem loans have been
insignificant. While Provident does compete with
 
                                       S-7
<PAGE>   8
 
banks and other lending institutions, many of which have substantially greater
resources than Provident, it believes that its knowledge of the death care
industry provides it with a competitive advantage in making such loans.
 
As part of SCI's newly acquired French operations, the Company owns a funeral
service insurance subsidiary which sold more than 22,000 pre-need funeral
insurance contracts in 1994, primarily in connection with the Company's French
funeral service operations. Additionally, SCI's French operations include a
subsidiary that manufactures coffins, which are sold primarily to the Company's
European affiliates.
 
Regulation
In April 1984, the United States Federal Trade Commission (the "FTC")
comprehensive Trade Regulation Rule for the funeral industry became fully
effective. The rule contains minimum guidelines for funeral industry practices,
requires extensive price and other affirmative disclosures and imposes mandatory
itemization of funeral goods and services. A pre-existing consent order between
SCI and the FTC applicable to certain funeral practices of SCI was amended in
1984 to make the substantive provisions of the consent order consistent with the
rule. From time to time in connection with acquisitions, SCI has entered into
consent orders with the FTC that have required SCI to dispose of certain
operations to proceed with acquisitions or have limited SCI's ability to make
acquisitions in specified areas. The rule and the various consent orders have
not had a material adverse effect on SCI's operations.
 
The United Kingdom and France also maintain limited regulations with respect to
funeral service industry operations. The Company believes that these regulations
are uniformly applied to its operations and others in the funeral service
industry.
 
In May 1995, the Monopolies and Mergers Commission (the "Commission") of the
United Kingdom issued a report with respect to SCI's 1994 acquisition of
Plantsbrook Group plc that recommended that SCI divest of certain operations in
ten localities to achieve a competitive balance satisfactory to the Commission.
The Company believes that this recommendation will not adversely affect its
results of operations as it pertains to less than two percent of the Company's
revenues derived from the United Kingdom. SCI is contesting the Commission's
report.
 
The French funeral services industry is currently undergoing significant
regulatory change. Historically, the French funeral services industry has been
controlled, as provided by national legislation, either (i) directly by
municipalities through municipality-operated funeral establishments ("Municipal
Monopoly"), accounting for approximately 30% of the funerals performed in France
in 1994, or (ii) indirectly by the remaining municipalities that have contracted
for funeral service activities with third party providers, such as OGF/PFG
("Exclusive Municipal Authority"), accounting for approximately 70% of the
funerals performed in France in 1994. Legislation has been passed that will
generally end municipal control of the French funeral service business and will
allow the public to choose their funeral service provider. Under such
legislation, the Exclusive Municipal Authority will be abolished by January
1996, and the Municipal Monopolies will be eliminated by January 1998.
Cemeteries in France, however, are and will continue to be controlled by
municipalities and religious organizations, with third parties, such as OGF/PFG,
providing cemetery merchandise such as markers and monuments.
 
ACQUISITION STRATEGY
 
Over the past several years, SCI has made a significant number of acquisitions.
SCI anticipates that it will continue to aggressively pursue acquisition
opportunities, as acquisitions form a critical part of SCI's growth strategy.
SCI will continue to seek acquisitions in geographic areas in which it presently
operates to expand established clusters, as well as acquisitions in new
geographic areas, including those outside North America, to develop new clusters
and to increase volume and revenue. To date, SCI has been able to increase the
profitability of its acquired properties by absorbing a significant portion of
their costs, such as transportation and embalming, into SCI's clusters, and by
applying SCI's merchandising programs to the new operations. In addition,
acquisitions increase SCI's ability to benefit from the consolidation of
systems, insurance and other financial services. SCI also believes that because
of its size it has been able to negotiate favorable supply arrangements with
volume discounts on supplies, including caskets, and that the terms of these
supply arrangements have enabled it to increase the profitability of its
acquired properties. There can be no assurance that SCI will continue to
successfully absorb future acquisitions, domestic or international, or realize
cost savings.

SCI typically retains former owners and key managers of acquired businesses in
an effort to assure that service quality is maintained and that the businesses'
reputation, heritage and local relationships remain intact. Acquired funeral
homes and cemeteries retain their original trade names in substantially all
cases.
 
In evaluating specific properties for acquisition, SCI considers a number of
factors including demographics, location, reputation, heritage, physical size,
volume of business, profitability, available cemetery property inventory, name
recognition, aesthetics, potential for development or expansion, competitive
position, pricing structure and quality of operating management. SCI follows a
disciplined approach based on specific financial criteria for determining
acquisition prices and intends to continue an active acquisition program in the
future. There can be no assurance that acquisition prospects will continue to be
available in attractive locations at prices acceptable to SCI.
 
INTERNATIONAL EXPANSION AND RECENT ACQUISITIONS
 
In July 1995, SCI reached an agreement with Lyonnaise des Eaux ("LDE")
concerning the funeral service activities of LDE, then grouped within OGF and
PFG. Under the terms of this agreement, SCI agreed to acquire LDE's 51%
ownership interest in OGF and make public offers for the remaining OGF shares
and the approximate 35% of PFG not owned by OGF. Based on the exchange rate in
effect on August 25, 1995, the date on which the Company acquired its
controlling interest in OGF/PFG, the total cost for SCI to acquire 100% of
OGF/PFG is approximately $607 million and, after considering the estimated cash
balances of OGF and PFG, the net cost is approximately $424 million.
 
The Company believes that, on a combined basis, OGF/PFG is the largest funeral
service organization in Europe. OGF/PFG operates over 950 funeral service
locations that in 1994 performed more than 154,000 funerals throughout France.
OGF/PFG owns additional funeral operations that performed approximately 14,000
funerals in 1994 in Switzerland, Italy, Belgium, the Czech Republic and
Singapore. OGF and PFG estimate that their combined percentage of funerals
performed in 1994 is approximately 29% of all funerals performed in France in
1994. Included in the other operations of OGF/PFG is a subsidiary that
manufactures coffins, which are sold primarily to the Company's European
affiliates, and a funeral service insurance subsidiary, which sold over 22,000
pre-need funeral insurance contracts in 1994, primarily in connection with the
Company's French funeral service operations. For the year ended December 31,
1994, OGF/PFG had combined revenues of approximately $509 million.
 
On August 22, 1995, SCI received the necessary approvals from the French
Treasury to proceed with the OGF/PFG transaction. At September 26, 1995, SCI had
acquired over 97% of the outstanding shares of OGF and over 95% of the
outstanding shares of PFG.
 
During June 1995, SCI executed a definitive merger agreement with Gibraltar. In
connection with this transaction, SCI will issue 3,286,759 shares of Common
Stock, pay approximately $147 million in cash and assume debts of Gibraltar of
approximately $5 million. Subject to certain conditions, including regulatory
approval, the Company expects to complete the Gibraltar acquisition during the
fourth quarter of 1995. Gibraltar is the fourth largest consolidator in the
North American funeral service industry, with pro forma revenues for the year
ended September 30, 1994 of approximately $88 million, and owns 23 funeral homes
and 54 cemeteries located in 12 states.
 
In July 1995, the Company entered into an agreement to acquire the shares of
Service Corporation International (Canada) Limited ("SCIC") not already owned by
the Company. SCIC owns 74 funeral homes and three cemeteries in Canada. This
transaction was completed on September 5, 1995 at an approximate cost of $63
million and eliminated the approximate 31% minority ownership interest in SCIC.
SCIC is now a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.
 
During the second half of 1994, SCI acquired the then two largest publicly
traded funeral service providers in the United Kingdom, Great Southern Group plc
and Plantsbrook Group plc for approximately $508 million. These firms owned, on
a combined basis, 534 funeral homes, 13 crematoria and two cemeteries, with
combined 1994 revenues of approximately $130 million. The acquired United
Kingdom operations performed approximately 80,000 funerals in 1994, which
represents approximately 14% of all funerals performed in the United Kingdom
during that year.
 
During the six months ended June 30, 1995, SCI acquired 92 funeral homes, 26
cemeteries and three crematoria worldwide for a total of approximately $209
million in cash, stock and other securities.

INDUSTRY TRENDS
 
Stability
Death rates have been fairly predictable, thereby lending stability to the death
care industry. For example, since 1980, the number of deaths in the United
States has increased at a compound rate of approximately one percent per year.
According to a 1993 report prepared by the United States Department of Commerce,
Bureau of the Census, the number of deaths in the United States is expected to
increase by approximately one percent per year between 1993 and 2000 and by 0.9%
per year from 2000 to 2020. Because the industry is relatively stable and
non-cyclical, business failures are uncommon. As a result, ownership of funeral
home and cemetery businesses has traditionally passed from generation to
generation within a family. The death rate tends to be somewhat higher in the
winter months and funeral and cemetery operations generally experience a higher
volume of business during these months.
 
Consolidation
In recent years, the pace of acquisition activity in the death care industry has
increased. From the standpoint of individual owners, this appears to result
principally from family succession issues, a desire for liquidity and increasing
tax and estate planning complexities. From the standpoint of the large death
care providers, interest in acquisitions is driven by the benefits anticipated
to be derived from potential operating efficiencies, improved managerial control
and more effective strategic and financial planning.
 
In recent years, several large death care companies have expanded their
operations significantly through acquisitions. The increased interest in
acquisitions of funeral homes and cemeteries provides a source of potential
liquidity that has not been readily available to individual owners in the past.
 
Clustered Operations
During the last several years, larger death care companies have increasingly
begun to cluster their funeral home and cemetery operations. Clusters refer to
funeral homes or cemeteries that are grouped together in a geographic area.
Clusters provide cost savings to funeral homes and cemeteries through the
sharing of personnel, vehicles and other resources. In addition, the inclusion
of funeral homes and cemeteries in the same cluster provides opportunities for a
company to cross-sell the full range of death care services without
corresponding increases in overhead expenses.
 
Pre-need Marketing
An increasing number of death care products and services are being sold prior to
the time of death (i.e., on a "pre-need" basis). SCI believes that consumers are
becoming more aware of the benefits of advanced planning, such as the financial
assurance and peace of mind achieved by establishing in advance a fixed price
and type of service, and the elimination of the emotional strain on family
members of making death care plans at the time of need.
 
Combination Operations
Combination operations, referring to funeral home and cemetery operations
conducted on a single site, have become increasingly popular as they provide
cost savings through shared resources and cross-selling opportunities. The
ability to offer the full range of products and services at one location tends
to increase the sales volume and revenues of both the funeral home and cemetery.
 
Cremation
In recent years there has been steady, gradual growth in the number of families
in the United States that have chosen cremation as an alternative to traditional
methods of disposal. According to industry studies, cremations accounted for
approximately 20% of all dispositions of human remains in the United States in
1994. SCI's domestic operations perform substantially more cremations than the
national average. In 1994, just over 30% of all families served by SCI's North
American funeral homes selected the cremation alternative. SCI has a significant
number of operating locations in Florida and all along the west coast of North
America where the cremation alternative continues to gain acceptance. Based on
industry studies, the Company believes that cremations account for approximately
60% to 70% of all dispositions of human remains in Australia and in the United
Kingdom. The cremation rate in France approximates 10% and is expected to
increase over the next several years.
 
Cremations generally result in lower average revenue and gross profit dollars
when compared to traditional funeral services. The Company believes, however,
that its funeral operations that are predominantly cremation businesses
typically have higher gross profit margins than those produced by its
traditional funeral operations.

                                USE OF PROCEEDS
 
The net proceeds from the sale of the Common Stock offered hereby are estimated
to be $272.0 million, $312.8 million if the Underwriters' over-allotment option
is exercised in full. The Company has incurred certain indebtedness for
acquisitions (other than the acquisitions of OGF and PFG) and to provide
financing to Provident under the Company's revolving credit facilities with
certain banks (the "Revolving Credit Facilities") and through the issuance of
commercial paper backed by the Revolving Credit Facilities. Additionally, the
Company has incurred indebtedness under another revolving credit agreement
between the Company and certain banks to finance the acquisitions of OGF and PFG
(the "French Revolving Credit Agreement"). The Company expects to use the net
proceeds from the Common Stock Offering and the Senior Notes Offerings (i) to
repay a portion of indebtedness under the Revolving Credit Facilities and/or
commercial paper backed by the Revolving Credit Facilities and/or indebtedness
under the French Revolving Credit Agreement and (ii) possibly to fund all or a
portion of the cost of the Company's acquisition of Gibraltar. Pending such
uses, net proceeds may be invested in short-term investments. As of September
26, 1995, approximately $138.7 million was outstanding under the Revolving
Credit Facilities at a weighted average annual interest rate of 6.76% with
maturities ranging from three to 22 days; approximately $229.1 million of
commercial paper was outstanding backed by the Revolving Credit Facilities at a
weighted average annual interest rate of 5.89% with maturities ranging from one
to 48 days; and approximately $534.2 million was outstanding under the French
Revolving Credit Agreement at a weighted average annual interest rate of 6.07%
with maturities ranging from three to 24 days. See "The Company -- International
Expansion and Recent Acquisitions."

               UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION
 
In July 1995, the Company entered into an agreement with LDE, a French company,
to purchase LDE's funeral service business. LDE's funeral service business was
comprised of an approximate 51% ownership interest in OGF which, in turn, owned
approximately 65% of PFG. On August 25, 1995, the Company acquired the
approximate 51% interest in OGF for $233,358,000. The Company is making public
tender offers for the remaining shares of OGF and PFG with the intent to acquire
100% of the outstanding shares of both companies. On September 26, 1995, the
Company owned shares representing over 97% of OGF and over 95% of PFG. The
Company believes that OGF/PFG is the largest funeral service organization in
Europe. OGF/PFG operates over 950 funeral service locations that performed over
154,000 funerals throughout France in 1994. OGF/PFG also operate funeral
locations in Belgium, the Czech Republic, Italy, Singapore and Switzerland that
performed approximately 14,000 funerals in 1994. Included in OGF/PFG operations
is a coffin manufacturing business that sells the large majority of its products
to OGF/PFG's funeral operations and a funeral insurance business whose primary
activity involves insurance policies sold in connection with OGF/PFG's
prearranged funeral business. The Company intends that OGF/PFG will continue to
operate their funeral service and related businesses. The total purchase price
for OGF and the portion of PFG not owned by OGF is expected to be approximately
$607,206,000, based on a June 30, 1995 translation rate of $.2062 to one French
franc, consisting of $589,570,000 of cash, the assumption of $12,004,000 of
OGF/PFG debt and associated expenses of $5,632,000 (based on an August 25, 1995
translation rate of $.1969 to one French franc, the total purchase price would
be $579,820,000). The net cost to the Company, taking into account the estimated
available excess cash balances of OGF/PFG, is expected to be approximately
$424,046,000. In August 1995, the Company entered into the French Revolving
Credit Agreement, a 364-day revolving credit agreement with Societe Generale,
Southwest Agency, Credit Lyonnais Cayman Island Branch and Banque Nationale de
Paris, Houston Agency. The French Revolving Credit Agreement allows for
borrowings up to $600,000,000 (which, at the option of the Company, can be
borrowed in French francs or U.S. dollars) to provide short-term financing for
the purchase of OGF/PFG. The interest rate currently in effect is based on PIBOR
plus 25 basis points (5.95% at September 8, 1995).
 
In June 1995, the Company entered into an agreement to acquire Gibraltar.
Gibraltar, a private funeral and cemetery company based in Indianapolis,
Indiana, owns and operates 23 funeral homes and 54 cemeteries. Subject to
regulatory approval, the Company expects to complete the Gibraltar transaction
during the fourth quarter of 1995 for a purchase price of approximately
$271,360,000 consisting of 3,286,759 shares of Company common stock (based on
the closing stock price of $35.75 per share on September 8, 1995), $146,668,000
in cash, the assumption of $5,425,000 of Gibraltar debt and associated expenses
of $1,765,000. Such common stock of the Company is registered with the
Securities and Exchange Commission and will be issued under the Company's
existing shelf registration. The cash portion of the purchase price will be
borrowed under the Company's existing revolving credit facilities (5.89% at
September 8, 1995).
 
On September 5, 1995, the Company acquired the shares of SCIC not already owned
by the Company. SCIC owns 74 funeral homes and three cemeteries in Canada. 
This purchase eliminated the approximate 31% minority ownership interest in 
SCIC and made SCIC a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The purchase 
price was approximately $62,578,000 and was financed through borrowings under 
the Company's existing revolving credit facilities in Canadian dollars at an 
interest rate based on Canadian banker's acceptance rate plus 25 basis points 
(6.31% at September 5, 1995).
 
In the third quarter of 1994, the Company acquired the two largest publicly
traded funeral service providers in the United Kingdom, Great Southern Group plc
("GSG") and Plantsbrook Group plc ("PG"). PG was an equity investee of OGF
before being purchased by the Company. GSG and PG owned a combined 534 funeral
homes, 13 crematoria and two cemeteries. The purchase price of approximately
$508,000,000 was financed using a portion of the net proceeds from the Company's
December 1994 public offerings, consisting of common stock (7,700,000 shares
issued in December 1994 and 780,000 shares issued in January 1995 at a net price
of $24.70 per share), $172,500,000 of preferred securities of SCI Finance LLC (a
wholly owned subsidiary of the Company) and $200,000,000 of 8.375% fixed rate
notes due 2004, long-term fixed rate borrowings, other revolving credit
borrowings and debt assumed by the Company. Both GSG and PG have been
consolidated with the Company since September 1, 1994.
 
In addition to the acquisitions discussed above, during 1994 and the six months
ended June 30, 1995, the Company continued to acquire funeral and cemetery
operations in the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada and Australia.
During such period, the Company acquired 232 funeral homes and 52 cemeteries
(the 1994 and 1995 "Other Acquired
 
                                      S-14

Companies") in 120 separate transactions for an aggregate purchase price of
approximately $515,000,000 in the form of combinations of cash, Company common
stock, issued and assumed debt, convertible debentures and retired loans
receivable held by a Company subsidiary.
 
The following unaudited pro forma combined balance sheet as of June 30, 1995 has
been prepared assuming the acquisitions by the Company of 100% of the
outstanding shares of OGF/PFG, Gibraltar and the minority interest in SCIC took
place on June 30, 1995. The unaudited pro forma combined statements of income
for the year ended December 31, 1994 and the six months ended June 30, 1995 have
been prepared assuming the acquisitions by the Company of 100% of the
outstanding shares of OGF/PFG, Gibraltar, the minority interest in SCIC, GSG, PG
and the Other Acquired Companies took place on January 1, 1994. Such
acquisitions are being accounted for under the purchase method of accounting.
The historical revenues and expenses of GSG and PG and the Other Acquired
Companies represent amounts recorded by those businesses for the period that
they were not owned by the Company during the year ended December 31, 1994 and
the six months ended June 30, 1995, respectively. The unaudited pro forma
combined financial information may not be indicative of results that would
actually have been obtained if these transactions had occurred on the dates
indicated or which may be obtained in the future.
 
For purposes of this unaudited pro forma combined financial information it is
assumed that the net proceeds of the Company's December 1994 public offerings
were first applied toward the purchase price of GSG and PG ($508,000,000 less
$31,258,000 of GSG and PG debt assumed by the Company) with the excess net
proceeds ($95,205,000) used to repay amounts outstanding under the Company's
existing revolving credit facilities. In addition, the unaudited pro forma
combined financial information assumes two financing approaches, first, that the
acquisition of OGF/PFG is financed with borrowings under the French Revolving
Credit Agreement. Second, that the Company will apply the assumed net proceeds
received from the Common Stock Offering ($252,520,000) to repay a portion of the
Company's existing revolving credit facilities and the assumed net proceeds
received from the Senior Notes Offerings ($297,765,000) will be used to repay
amounts borrowed under the French Revolving Credit Agreement. Such offerings are
assumed to have been issued on June 30, 1995 for the unaudited pro forma
combined balance sheet and on January 1, 1994 for the unaudited pro forma
combined statements of income at a stock price of $35.75 (the closing stock
price on September 8, 1995) and an interest rate of 6.77% (the average interest
rate on September 8, 1995), respectively. Notwithstanding the assumed
application of the estimated net proceeds of the Common Stock Offering and the
Senior Notes Offerings, the actual net proceeds from any of those offerings may
be used as described under "Use of Proceeds." The French Revolving Credit
Agreement and the Company's existing revolving credit facilities assume a
weighted average interest rate for the periods presented.
 
The historical financial statements of GSG and PG for the period not owned by
the Company in 1994 were prepared in UK pound sterling in accordance with United
Kingdom generally accepted accounting principles ("UK GAAP"). The historical
financial statements of OGF/PFG as of June 30, 1995 and for the year ended
December 31, 1994 and the six months ended June 30, 1995 were prepared in French
francs in accordance with French generally accepted accounting practices ("F
GAAP"). This information has been adjusted to present the historical financial
statements in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting
principles ("US GAAP") and translated into U.S. dollars at the June 30, 1995
exchange rate for the balance sheet ($.2062 to one French franc, $.1969 at
August 25, 1995) and at the average exchange rate for the respective statement
of income periods presented ($.1802 and $.1983 for the year ended December 31,
1994 and six months ended June 30, 1995, respectively). The Company has not
completed all appraisals and evaluations necessary to finalize OGF/PFG's or
Gibraltar's purchase price allocation, and accordingly, actual adjustments that
reflect appraisals and other evaluations of the purchased assets and assumed
liabilities may differ from the pro forma adjustments.

         NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED STATEMENT OF INCOME
                          YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1994
 
1994 TRANSACTIONS
 
(A)    To record the acquisition of five separate businesses acquired at various
       dates by PG between January 1, 1994 and August 31, 1994 as if such
       acquisitions had occurred on January 1, 1994. Internally generated funds
       were used for the purchase of these businesses; however, for purposes of
       the unaudited pro forma combined statement of income, imputed interest
       expense, calculated on the purchase price, has been included at a rate of
       6%, which approximated the Company's UK borrowing rate for the year 1994.
 
(B)    To record a reduction to costs and expenses for the 1994 Other Acquired
       Companies based on results actually achieved by the Company for the
       periods subsequent to acquisition in the amount of $7,019,000 offset in
       part by additional costs and expenses of $3,101,000 resulting from the
       effect of applying purchase accounting adjustments, primarily
       amortization and depreciation.
 
       Interest expense was added for debt and convertible debentures, issued in
       the purchase of the 1994 Other Acquired Companies, at stated rates. In
       addition, interest expense has been added for the cash portion of the
       purchase price assumed to be borrowed by the Company at the Company's
       weighted average borrowing rate of 4.60% for the year ended December 31,
       1994 under its existing revolving credit facilities. At September 5,
       1995, the borrowing rate was 5.89%.
 
(C)    To eliminate corporate expenses, consisting primarily of duplicate
       personnel expenses, related to the acquisitions of GSG and PG.
 
(D)    To record the additional depreciation expense (based on 50 year useful
       life and straight-line depreciation) on GSG's funeral home buildings
       resulting from the estimated change in fair value over historical cost.
 
(E)    To record the amortization of names and reputations (based on 40 year
       straight-line amortization) created from the acquisition of PG by the
       Company.
 
(F)    To eliminate the historical GSG and PG goodwill amortization expense.
 
(G)    To record the additional cost of GSG's cemetery and cremation
       memorialization interment rights sold.
 
(H)    To record the estimated additional amortization expense from the expenses
       associated with the December 1994 issuances of preferred securities of
       SCI Finance LLC and $200,000,000 of fixed rate notes of the Company.
 
(I)     To reverse imputed interest expense recorded in the Company's historical
       financial statements, related to the acquisition of GSG and PG, that
       would not have occurred if these acquisitions had been completed on
       January 1, 1994.
 
(J)     To reverse interest expense recorded in the Company's historical
       financial statements related to amounts borrowed under the Company's
       revolving credit agreements to partially fund the acquisitions of GSG and
       PG. This indebtedness would not have been necessary if the acquisition of
       GSG and PG had been funded with proceeds from the December 1994 public
       offerings.
 
(K)    To record the estimated reduction in interest expense resulting from the
       assumed partial repayment of $95,205,000 of indebtedness under the
       Company's existing revolving credit facilities. Such repayment funds were
       derived from the net proceeds of the December 1994 public offerings
       available after the purchase of GSG and PG. The reduction was calculated
       using the Company's weighted average borrowing rate of 4.60% for the year
       ended December 31, 1994 under its revolving credit facilities.
 
(L)    To record approximately 11 months of additional interest expense on the
       December 1994 $200,000,000 notes at an annual interest rate of 8.375%.
 
(M)    To record the estimated reduction in net interest expense achieved from a
       cross currency hedging transaction entered into by the Company in
       December 1994 as if such transaction had been entered into on January 1,
       1994.

  NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED STATEMENT OF INCOME -- (CONTINUED)
 
       This transaction effectively converts $272,500,000 of U.S. fixed rate
       indebtedness into floating rate UK pound sterling indebtedness, raising
       SCI's total UK pound sterling exposure to $472,500,000, which is
       comparable to the size of the acquisitions of GSG and PG.
 
(N)    To reverse interest expense recorded in the Company's historical
       financial statements related to amounts borrowed under two bank
       facilities secured to temporarily fund the GSG and PG acquisitions. This
       indebtedness would not have been necessary if the acquisition of GSG and
       PG had been funded with proceeds from the December 1994 public offerings.
 
(O)    To record the additional dividends at 6.25% on the preferred securities
       of SCI Finance LLC issued in December 1994 to present a full year of
       dividends.
 
(P)    To record the tax effect of the pro forma adjustments.
 
(Q)    To give effect to the additional time period during which the Company
       common stock (in the case of the primary and fully diluted weighted
       average number of shares) and convertible debt (in the case of the fully
       diluted weighted average number of shares) issued during the period
       between January 1, 1994 and December 31, 1994 in respect to the
       acquisition of the 1994 Other Acquired Companies would have been
       outstanding if all of such acquisitions had occurred as of January 1,
       1994.
 
(R)    To record the additional impact from the issuance of 7,700,000 shares in
       December 1994 and 780,000 shares in January 1995.
 
(S)    To record the additional impact on the fully diluted weighted average
       number of shares of the preferred securities of SCI Finance LLC issued in
       December 1994.
 
1995 TRANSACTIONS
 
1995 OTHER ACQUIRED COMPANIES
 
(O1)   To record a reduction to costs and expenses for the 1995 Other Acquired
       Companies based on results actually achieved by the Company for the
       periods subsequent to acquisition in the amount of $3,983,000 offset in
       part by additional costs and expenses of $2,762,000 resulting from the
       effect of applying purchase accounting adjustments, primarily
       amortization and depreciation.
 
       Interest expense was added for debt and convertible debentures, issued in
       the purchase of the 1995 Other Acquired Companies, at stated rates. In
       addition, interest expense has been added for the cash portion of the
       purchase price assumed to be borrowed by the Company at the Company's
       weighted average borrowing rate of 4.60% for the year ended December 31,
       1994 under its existing revolving credit facilities. At September 8,
       1995, the borrowing rate was 5.89%.
 
(O2)   To record the tax effect for the 1995 Other Acquired Companies pro forma
       adjustments.
 
(O3)   To give effect to the additional time period during which the Company
       common stock (in the case of the primary and fully diluted weighted
       average number of shares) and convertible debt (in the case of the fully
       diluted weighted average number of shares) issued during the period
       between January 1, 1994 and December 31, 1994 in respect to the
       acquisition of the 1995 Other Acquired Companies would have been
       outstanding if all of such acquisitions had occurred as of January 1,
       1994.

       purchase of the SCIC minority interest ($62,578,000) assumed to have been
       borrowed by the Company under its existing revolving credit facilities.
       The calculation was based on a weighted average annual three month
       Canadian banker's acceptance borrowing rate plus 25 basis points for the
       year ended December 31, 1994 (5.76%). At September 5, 1995, the borrowing
       rate was 6.31%.

       cemetery construction activities.
 
(G2)   To conform Gibraltar's prearranged funeral accounting to the Company's.
       The revenue adjustment includes $1,306,000 of revenue relating to

       which would be deferred under the Company's accounting policies and
       $596,000 of revenue recognized by Gibraltar relating to certain
       prearranged funeral payments not required to be held in trust which would
       also be deferred under the Company's accounting policies. The adjustment
       to costs and expenses for $830,000 relates to prearranged funeral selling
       expenses that would be capitalized under the Company's accounting
       policies but were recognized currently by Gibraltar.
 
(G3)   To conform Gibraltar's cemetery accounting to the Company's. This

(F3)   To eliminate OGF/PFG's historical depreciation expense which was
       calculated using shorter depreciable asset lives than does the Company
       under its accounting policies. Additionally, OGF/PFG, for certain assets,
       used accelerated depreciation methods. The Company uses a straight-line
       method of depreciation expense recognition.
 
(F4)   To record the depreciation expense on OGF/PFG's property, plant and
       equipment using the Company's depreciation policies based on the current
       fair value.
 
(F5)   To record the amortization of the present value of future profits related
       to OGF/PFG's life insurance subsidiary, net of the amount allocated to
       policyholders, under French insurance regulations.
 
(F6)   To eliminate the amortization of deferred acquisition costs related to
       the life insurance subsidiary which were recorded in OGF/PFG's historical
       income statement.
 
(F7)   To eliminate historical OGF/PFG expenses that will not continue under the
       Company's ownership. Such costs are primarily the result of OGF/PFG
       personnel whose positions were permanently eliminated in anticipation of
       the acquisition of OGF/PFG by the Company.
 
(F8)   To record interest expense on amounts borrowed under the French Revolving
       Credit Agreement ($589,570,000) at 6.10% which represents the weighted
       average three month PIBOR borrowing rate plus 25 basis points for the
       year ended December 31, 1994 applied to a French franc balance as of June
       30, 1995 and translated at the weighted average exchange rate for the
       year ended December 31, 1994. At September 8, 1995, the borrowing rate
       was 5.95%.
 
(F9)   To eliminate interest expense on amounts borrowed under the French
       Revolving Credit Agreement that the Company intends to repay with
       $183,180,000 of OGF/PFG cash acquired. OGF/PFG received substantially all
       of this cash from the sale, in 1994, of its investment in PG to the
       Company. The reduction was calculated using a weighted average annual
       interest rate of 6.10%, which represents the weighted average three month
       PIBOR borrowing rate plus 25 basis points for the year ended December 31,
       1994 applied to a French franc balance as of June 30, 1995 and translated
       at the weighted average exchange rate for the year ended December 31,
       1994. At September 8, 1995, the borrowing rate was 5.95%.
 
(F10)  To eliminate OGF/PFG historical interest income earned on OGF/PFG excess
       cash ($183,180,000) that the Company intends to use to partially repay
       borrowings under the French Revolving Credit Agreement.
 
(F11)  To eliminate OGF's year ended 1994 charge for the minority interest in
       PFG assuming acquisition of 100% of PFG by the Company.
 
(F12)  To eliminate the gain on sale of PG. The Company purchased PG, which was
       an equity investee of OGF, in 1994.
 
(F13)  To record the tax effect of the OGF/PFG pro forma adjustments.
 
1995 PUBLIC OFFERINGS
 
(P1)   To record the amortization expense expected to result from the estimated
       costs and expenses associated with the Senior Notes Offerings.
 
(P2)   To record the estimated interest expense on the Senior Notes Offerings at
       an assumed annual interest rate of 6.77% as if such notes had been issued
       January 1, 1994 (net proceeds of $297,765,000).
 
(P3)   To record the estimated reduction in interest expense resulting from the
       assumed partial repayment of $252,520,000 of indebtedness under the
       Company's existing revolving credit facilities from the assumed net
       proceeds of the Common Stock Offering. The reduction was calculated using
       a weighted average annual interest rate of 4.60%, which represents the
       weighted average borrowing rate under the Company's existing revolving
       credit facilities for the year ended December 31, 1994 (5.89% at
       September 8, 1995).

  NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED STATEMENT OF INCOME -- (CONTINUED)
 
(P4)   To record the estimated reduction in interest expense from the assumed
       partial repayment of $297,765,000 of indebtedness under the French
       Revolving Credit Agreement from the assumed net proceeds of the Senior
       Notes Offerings. The reduction was calculated using a weighted average
       annual interest rate of 6.10%, which represents the weighted average
       three month PIBOR borrowing rate plus 25 basis points for the year ended
       December 31, 1994 (5.95% at September 8, 1995).
 
(P5)   To record the estimated decrease in net interest expense resulting from a
       planned cross currency hedging transaction as if such transaction had
       been entered into on January 1, 1994. Assuming September 8, 1995 market
       conditions, this transaction would effectively convert $150,000,000 of
       fixed rate indebtedness into fixed rate French franc indebtedness (7.22%)
       and $150,000,000 of fixed rate indebtedness into floating rate French
       franc indebtedness (based on PIBOR plus 45 basis points). Under this
       transaction the Company would receive an average U.S. dollar 6.88%
       interest rate and pay an average French franc 6.69% interest rate. With
       this transaction, the Company's net investment in OGF/PFG will be hedged
       against currency risk.
 
(P6)   To record the tax effect of the offerings' pro forma adjustments at the
       Company's statutory tax rate.
 
(P7)   To record the anticipated issuance of 7,300,000 shares under the Common
       Stock Offering as if such shares had been issued January 1, 1994 at an
       assumed stock price of $35.75 per share, (the closing stock price on
       September 8, 1995) (net proceeds of $252,520,000).
 
The following adjustments were made to the historical financials of GSG and PG
to restate historical financial statements to US GAAP (included in the unaudited
pro forma combined statement of income for the year ended December 31, 1994 in
the column captioned "1994 Historical -- GSG & PG and Other Acquired
Companies"):

         NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED STATEMENT OF INCOME
                         SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1995
 
1995 OTHER ACQUIRED COMPANIES
 
(O1)   To record a reduction to costs and expenses for the 1995 Other Acquired
       Companies based on results actually achieved by the Company for the
       periods subsequent to acquisition in the amount of $1,860,000 offset in
       part by additional costs and expenses of $1,381,000 resulting from the
       effect of applying purchase accounting adjustments, primarily
       amortization and depreciation.
 
       Interest expense was added for debt and convertible debentures, issued in
       the purchase of the 1995 Other Acquired Companies, at stated rates. In
       addition, interest expense has been added for the cash portion of the
       purchase price assumed to be borrowed by the Company at the Company's
       weighted average borrowing rate of 6.14% for the six months ended June
       30, 1995 under its existing revolving credit facilities. At September 8,
       1995, the borrowing rate was 5.89%.
 
(O2)   To record the tax effect for the 1995 Other Acquired Companies pro forma
       adjustments.
 
(O3)   To give effect to the additional time period during which the Company
       common stock (in the case of the primary and fully diluted weighted
       average number of shares) and convertible debt (in the case of the fully
       diluted weighted average number of shares) issued during the period
       between January 1, 1995 and June 30, 1995 in respect to the acquisition
       of the 1995 Other Acquired Companies would have been outstanding for the
       six months ended June 30, 1995 if all of such acquisitions had occurred
       as of January 1, 1994.
 
CANADA
 
(C1)   To record the additional amortization of names and reputations (based on
       40 year straight-line amortization) created from the acquisition of the
       SCIC minority interest.
 
(C2)   To record the additional costs of SCIC's cemetery interment rights sold.
 
(C3)   To record the estimated interest expense for the September 5, 1995
       purchase of the SCIC minority interest ($62,578,000) assumed to have been
       borrowed by the Company under its existing revolving credit facilities.
       The calculation was based on a weighted average annual three month
       Canadian banker's acceptance borrowing rate plus 25 basis points for the
       six months ended June 30, 1995 (8.05%). At September 5, 1995, the
       borrowing rate was 6.31%.
 
(C4)   To eliminate the 1995 SCIC minority interest charge.
 
(C5)   To record the tax effect for SCIC's minority interest pro forma
       adjustments.
 
GIBRALTAR
 
(G1)   To conform Gibraltar's prearranged funeral accounting to the Company's.
       The revenue adjustment includes $604,000 of revenue relating to earnings
       on amounts held in trust which Gibraltar recognized currently which would
       be deferred under the Company's accounting policies and $239,000 of
       revenue recognized by Gibraltar relating to certain prearranged funeral
       payments not required to be held in trust which would also be deferred
       under the Company's accounting policies. The adjustment to costs and
       expenses for $362,000 relates to prearranged funeral selling expenses
       that would be capitalized under the Company's accounting policies but
       were recognized currently by Gibraltar.
 
(G2)   To conform Gibraltar's cemetery accounting to the Company's. This
       includes an adjustment to reclassify $3,227,000 of revenues and costs and
       expenses relating to contract cancellations. In addition, this adjustment
       includes a reduction of Gibraltar's historical costs and expenses for
       $995,000, representing reduced cost accruals for certain cemetery sales.

                       SERVICE CORPORATION INTERNATIONAL
 
  NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED STATEMENT OF INCOME -- (CONTINUED)
 
(G3)   To eliminate Gibraltar corporate expenses consisting primarily of former
       owner salaries and duplicate home office personnel expenses.
 
(G4)   To eliminate the historical Gibraltar goodwill amortization expense.
 
(G5)   To record the additional cost of Gibraltar's cemetery interment rights
       sold.
 
(G6)   To eliminate the interest expense on Gibraltar debt assumed to be repaid
       by the Company.
 
(G7)   To record additional interest expense for the cash portion of the
       purchase price assumed to be borrowed by the Company under its existing
       revolving credit facilities. The Company's weighted average borrowing
       rate for such revolving credit facilities was 6.14% for the six months
       ended June 30, 1995. At September 8, 1995, the borrowing rate was 5.89%.
 
(G8)   To record the tax effect of Gibraltar's pro forma adjustments.
 
(G9)   To reflect the issuance of 3,286,759 shares in respect to the acquisition
       of Gibraltar that would have been outstanding if the acquisition had
       occurred as of January 1, 1995. The shares were assumed to be issued at
       $35.75 per share (the closing stock price on September 8, 1995).
 
OGF/PFG
 
(F1)   To eliminate the historical OGF/PFG goodwill amortization expense.
 
(F2)   To record the amortization of names and reputations (based on 40 year
       straight-line amortization) created from the acquisition of OGF/PFG by
       the Company.
 
(F3)   To eliminate OGF/PFG's historical depreciation expense which was
       calculated using shorter depreciable asset lives than does the Company
       under its accounting policies. Additionally, OGF/PFG, for certain assets,
       used accelerated depreciation methods. The Company uses a straight-line
       method of depreciation expense recognition.
 
(F4)   To record the depreciation expense on OGF/PFG's property, plant and
       equipment using the Company's depreciation policies based on the current
       fair value.
 
(F5)   To record the amortization of the present value of future profits related
       to OGF/PFG's life insurance subsidiary, net of the amount allocated to
       policyholders, under French insurance regulations.
 
(F6)   To eliminate the amortization of deferred acquisition costs related to
       the life insurance subsidiary which were recorded in OGF/PFG's historical
       income statement.
 
(F7)   To eliminate historical OGF/PFG expenses that will not continue under the
       Company's ownership. Such costs are primarily the result of OGF/PFG
       personnel whose positions were permanently eliminated and professional
       expenses incurred in anticipation of the acquisition of OGF/PFG by the
       Company.
 
(F8)   To record interest expense on amounts borrowed under the French Revolving
       Credit Agreement ($589,570,000) at 7.22% which represents the weighted
       average three month PIBOR borrowing rate plus 25 basis points for the six
       months ended June 30, 1995 applied to a French franc balance as of June
       30, 1995 and translated at the weighted average exchange rate for the six
       months ended June 30, 1995. At September 8, 1995, the borrowing rate was
       5.95%.
 
(F9)   To eliminate interest expense on amounts borrowed under the French
       Revolving Credit Agreement that the Company intends to repay with
       $183,180,000 of OGF/PFG cash acquired. OGF/PFG received substantially all
       of this cash from the sale, in 1994, of its investment in PG to the
       Company. The reduction was calculated using a weighted average annual
       interest rate of 7.22%, which represents the weighted average three month
       PIBOR borrowing rate plus 25 basis points for the six months ended June
       30, 1995 applied to a French franc balance as of June 30, 1995 and
       translated at the weighted average exchange rate for the six months ended
       June 30, 1995. At September 8, 1995, the borrowing rate was 5.95%.

                       SERVICE CORPORATION INTERNATIONAL
 
  NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED STATEMENT OF INCOME -- (CONTINUED)
 
(F10)  To eliminate OGF's six month charge for the minority interest in PFG
       assuming acquisition of 100% of PFG by the Company.
 
(F11)  To eliminate OGF/PFG historical interest income earned on OGF/PFG excess
       cash ($183,180,000) that the Company intends to use to partially repay
       borrowings under the French Revolving Credit Agreement.
 
(F12)  To record the tax effect of the OGF/PFG pro forma adjustments.
 
(F13)  The earnings of OGF/PFG's life insurance subsidiary for the six months
       ended June 30, 1995 included realized losses on sales of portfolio debt
       securities. The net effect of the debt security sales, after profit
       participation by policyholders, was a loss before income taxes of
       approximately $7,950,000. On August 25, 1995, the Company adopted a
       policy with respect to OGF/PFG's life insurance subsidiary to hold all
       debt securities to maturity. Had the Company's investment policy been in
       effect during the period, such security sales would not have occurred.
 
1995 PUBLIC OFFERINGS
 
(P1)   To record the amortization expense expected to result from the estimated
       costs and expenses associated with the Senior Notes Offerings.
 
(P2)   To record the estimated interest expense on the Senior Notes Offerings at
       an assumed annual interest rate of 6.77% as if such notes had been issued
       January 1, 1994 (net proceeds of $297,765,000).
 
(P3)   To record the estimated reduction in interest expense resulting from the
       assumed partial repayment of $252,520,000 of indebtedness under the
       Company's existing revolving credit facilities from the assumed net
       proceeds of the Common Stock Offering. The reduction was calculated using
       a weighted average annual interest rate of 6.14%, which represents the
       weighted average borrowing rate under the Company's existing revolving
       credit facilities for the six months ended June 30, 1995 (5.89% at
       September 8, 1995).
 
(P4)   To record the estimated reduction in interest expense from the assumed
       partial repayment of $297,765,000 of indebtedness under the French
       Revolving Credit Agreement from the assumed net proceeds of the Senior
       Notes Offerings. The reduction was calculated using a weighted average
       annual interest rate of 7.22%, which represents the weighted average
       three month PIBOR borrowing rate plus 25 basis points for the six months
       ended June 30, 1995 (5.95% at September 8, 1995).
 
(P5)   To record the estimated decrease in net interest expense resulting from a
       planned cross currency hedging transaction as if such transaction had
       been entered into on January 1, 1994. Assuming September 8, 1995 market
       conditions, this transaction would effectively convert $150,000,000 of
       fixed rate indebtedness into fixed rate French franc indebtedness (7.22%)
       and $150,000,000 of fixed rate indebtedness into floating rate French
       franc indebtedness (based on PIBOR plus 45 basis points). Under this
       transaction, the Company would receive an average U.S. dollar 6.88%
       interest rate and pay an average French franc 6.69% interest rate. With
       this transaction, the Company's net investment in OGF/PFG will be hedged
       against currency risk.

       September 8, 1995) (net proceeds of $252,520,000).

                    CERTAIN FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES
                          TO NON-UNITED STATES HOLDERS
 
The following is a general discussion of certain United States federal income
and estate tax consequences of the ownership and disposition of the Common Stock
by non-United States holders, but does not purport to be a complete analysis of
all the potential tax considerations relating thereto.
 
As used herein, "non-United States holder" means a corporation, individual or
partnership that is, as to the United States, a foreign corporation, a
non-resident alien individual or a foreign partnership, and it means any estate
or trust that is not subject to United States taxation on income from sources
without the United States that is not effectively connected with the conduct of
a trade or business within the United States.
 
This discussion is based upon the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the
"Code"), Treasury Regulations, United States Internal Revenue Service ("IRS")
rulings and judicial decisions now in effect, all of which are subject to change
(possibly with retroactive effect) or different interpretations. This discussion
does not purport to deal with all aspects of federal income and estate taxation
that may be relevant to a particular non-United States holder's decision to
purchase the Common Stock.
 
ALL PROSPECTIVE NON-UNITED STATES PURCHASERS OF THE COMMON STOCK ARE ADVISED TO
CONSULT THEIR OWN TAX ADVISORS REGARDING THE UNITED STATES FEDERAL, STATE, LOCAL
AND NON-UNITED STATES TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE PURCHASE, OWNERSHIP AND
DISPOSITION OF THE COMMON STOCK.
 
DIVIDENDS
 
Except as provided below with respect to the payment of dividends to certain
partnerships, dividends paid to a non-United States holder of the Common Stock
will be subject to withholding of United States federal income tax at a 30% rate
or such lower rate as may be specified by an applicable income tax treaty. Under
currently effective Treasury Regulations, dividends paid to an address in a
foreign country are presumed to be paid to a resident of the country in
determining the applicability of a treaty for those purposes. Proposed Treasury
Regulations, if finally adopted, would require a non-United States holder to
file certain forms to obtain the benefit of any applicable tax treaty providing
for a lower rate of withholding tax on dividends. Those forms would contain the
holder's name and address and, subject to a de minimis exception, an official
statement by the competent authority in the foreign country (as designated in
the applicable tax treaty) attesting to the holder's status as a resident
thereof. However, except as may be otherwise provided in an applicable income
tax treaty, a non-United States holder will be taxed at ordinary federal income
tax rates (on a net income basis) on dividends that are effectively connected
with the conduct of a trade or business of the non-United States holder within
the United States and will not be subject to the withholding tax described
above. Certain certification requirements must be complied with to claim an
exemption from withholding on effectively connected dividends. If the non-United
States holder is a foreign corporation, it may also be subject to a United
States branch profits tax at a 30% rate or such lower rate as may be specified
by an applicable income tax treaty. A non-United States holder that is eligible
for a reduced rate of United States withholding tax pursuant to an income tax
treaty may apply for a refund of any excess amounts withheld by filing an
appropriate claim for refund with the IRS.
 
If the holder of Common Stock is a domestic or foreign partnership engaged in a
United States trade or business, the partnership will generally be required to
withhold tax on any effectively connected dividend includible in the
distributive share of partnership income (the "Distributive Share") of a partner
who is a non-United States holder, whether or not distributed, at the highest
applicable rate of United States taxation (currently, 39.6% for a non-corporate
partner and 35% for a corporate partner). A domestic partnership will be
required to withhold tax at the 30% withholding tax rate (or applicable treaty
rate) on any dividend includible in the Distributive Share of a partner that is
a non-United States holder that is not an effectively connected dividend,
whether or not distributed. Different withholding requirements may apply to
partnerships, the interests of which are publicly traded, and those partnerships
are accordingly advised to consult their tax advisors.

<PAGE>   34
 
DISPOSITION OF STOCK
 
Non-United States holders generally will not be subject to United States federal
income tax in respect of gain recognized on a disposition of the Common Stock
unless (i) the gain is effectively connected with a trade or business conducted
by the non-United States holder within the United States (in which case the
branch profits tax described under "--Dividends" above may also apply if the
holder is a foreign corporation), (ii) in the case of a non-United States holder
who is a non-resident alien individual and holds the Common Stock as a capital
asset, the holder is present in the United States for 183 or more days in the
taxable year of the disposition and certain other conditions are met, (iii) the
non-United States holder is subject to tax pursuant to the provisions of the
United States federal tax law applicable to certain United States expatriates or
(iv) the Company is or has been a "United States real property holding
corporation" for federal income tax purposes and, if the Common Stock is
considered "regularly traded" during the year of the disposition of the Common
Stock, the non-United States holder held directly or indirectly at any time
during the five-year period ending on the date of disposition more than five
percent of the Common Stock. Generally, this last rule for stock in United
States real property holding corporations takes precedence over relief provided
by tax treaties. However, non-United States holders who would be subject to
United States federal income taxes with respect to gain recognized on a sale or
other disposition of the Common Stock should consult applicable treaties, which
may provide different rules.
 
FEDERAL ESTATE TAXES
 
Common Stock that is owned or treated as being owned at the time of death by a
non-United States holder who is a non-resident alien individual will be included
in the holder's gross estate for United States federal estate tax purposes,
unless an applicable estate tax treaty provides otherwise.
 
INFORMATION REPORTING REQUIREMENTS AND BACKUP WITHHOLDING
 
Generally, dividends paid to non-United States holders outside the United States
that are subject to the 30% or treaty-reduced rate of withholding tax will be
exempt from the 31% backup withholding tax. As a general matter, information
reporting and backup withholding will not apply to a payment by or through a
foreign office of a foreign broker of the proceeds of a sale of Common Stock
effected outside the United States. However, information reporting requirements
(but not backup withholding) will apply to a payment by or through a foreign
office of a broker of the proceeds of a sale of Common Stock effected outside
the United States where that broker (i) is a United States person, (ii) is a
foreign person that derives 50% or more of its gross income for certain periods
from the conduct of a trade or business in the United States or (iii) is a
"controlled foreign corporation" as defined in the Code (generally, a foreign
corporation controlled by United States shareholders), unless the broker has
documentary evidence in its records that the holder is a non-United States
holder and certain conditions are met or the holder otherwise establishes an
exemption. Payment by a United States office of a broker of the proceeds of a
sale of Common Stock is subject to both backup withholding and information
reporting unless the holder certifies to the payor in the manner required as to
its non-United States status under penalties of perjury or otherwise establishes
an exemption.
 
Amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules do not constitute a separate
United States federal income tax. Rather, any amounts withheld under the backup
withholding rules will be allowed as a refund or credit against the holder's
United State federal income tax liability, if any, provided the required
information or appropriate claim for refund is filed with the IRS.

herein, "United States or Canadian Person" means any national or resident of the
United States or Canada or any corporation, pension, profit-sharing or other

dealer who purchases from it any shares of Common Stock a notice stating in
substance that, by purchasing the shares of Common Stock, the dealer represents
and agrees that it has not offered or sold, and will not offer or sell, directly
or indirectly, any of such shares of Common Stock in Canada or to, or for the
benefit of, any resident of Canada in contravention of the securities laws of
Canada or any province or territory thereof and that any offer of shares of
Common Stock in Canada will be made only pursuant to an exemption from the
requirement to file a prospectus in the province of Canada in which the offer is
made, and that the dealer will deliver to any other dealer to whom it sells any
such shares of Common Stock a notice containing substantially the same statement
as is contained in this sentence.
 
Pursuant to the Agreement Between U.S. and International Underwriting
Syndicates, each International Manager has represented and agreed that (i) it
has not offered or sold and will not offer or sell in the United Kingdom, by
means of any document, any shares of Common Stock prior to admission of the
Common Stock to listing in accordance with Part IV of the Financial Services Act
1986, other than to a person whose ordinary activities involve that person in
acquiring, holding, managing or disposing of investments (as principal or agent)
for purposes of their businesses or otherwise in circumstances which have not
resulted and will not result in an offer to the public that do not constitute an
offer to the public in the United Kingdom within the meaning of the Public
Offers of Security Regulations 1995 or the Financial Services Act 1986, (ii) it
has complied and will comply with all applicable provisions of the Financial
Services Act 1986 with respect to anything done by it in relation to the shares
of Common Stock in, from or otherwise involving the United Kingdom and (iii) it
has only issued or passed on and will only issue or pass on to any person in the
United Kingdom any document received by it in connection with the sale of the
shares of Common Stock other than any document which consists of or any part of
listing particulars, supplementary listing particulars or any other document
required or permitted to be published by listing rules under Part IV of the
Financial Services Act 1986 if that person is of a kind described in Article
11(3) of the Financial Services Act 1986 (Investment Advertisements)
(Exemptions) Order 1995 or is a person to whom the document may otherwise
lawfully be issued or passed on.
 
The Underwriters initially propose to offer the shares of Common Stock in part
directly to the public at the public offering price set forth on the cover page
of this Prospectus Supplement and in part to certain dealers at that price less
a concession not in excess of $.72 per share. The Underwriters may allow, and
those dealers may reallow, a concession not in excess of $.10 per share to
certain other dealers. After the initial public offering of the Common Stock
offered hereby, the public offering price and such concessions may be changed.
 
Pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, the Company has granted to the U.S.
Underwriters an option, exercisable for 30 days from the date of this Prospectus
Supplement, to purchase up to an additional 1,095,000 shares of Common Stock at
the public offering price set forth on the cover page hereof less the
underwriting discount. The U.S. Underwriters may exercise the option to purchase
solely for the purpose of covering over-allotments, if any, made in connection
with the sale of the shares of Common Stock offered hereby. To the extent this
option is exercised, each U.S. Underwriter will become obligated, subject to
certain conditions, to purchase approximately the same percentage of such
additional shares of

Common Stock as the number set forth next to the U.S. Underwriter's name in the
preceding table bears to the total number of shares of Common Stock offered
hereby.
 
In the Underwriting Agreement, the Company has agreed to indemnify the
Underwriters against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the
federal securities laws, or to contribute to payments that the Underwriters may

J.P. Morgan Securities Inc. ("JPMS"), Cazenove & Co., Merrill Lynch, Pierce,
Fenner & Smith Incorporated ("Merrill Lynch") and UBS Limited ("UBS") and/or
their affiliates from time to time provide commercial banking and/or investment
banking services to the Company for which they receive customary fees and
expense reimbursement. JPMS, Merrill Lynch and an affiliate of UBS are acting as
underwriters in connection with the Senior Notes Offerings. As of September 11,
1995, JPMS and certain of its affiliates beneficially owned (as defined in Rule
13d-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) approximately 11.04%
of the outstanding Common Stock, such figure representing beneficial ownership
in both a fiduciary capacity on behalf of third parties and for their own
accounts. As of that date, JPMS and such affiliates owned the economic interest
in less than 1% of the outstanding Common Stock.
 
The Company and each of its executive officers have agreed not to effect any
offer, sale or other disposition of any shares of Common Stock or any securities
convertible into or exchangeable for any shares of Common Stock (except, in the
case of the Company, for the shares of Common Stock offered hereby, the issuance
of shares of Common Stock upon conversion of the Company's presently outstanding
convertible securities and pursuant to the Company's existing employee benefit
plans as in effect on the date hereof and, subject to certain limitations, in
connection with acquisitions) for a period of 90 days after the date of this
Prospectus Supplement, without the prior consent of JPMS.
