PROFILE |
 |
Service Corporation International (SCI) is to death what H&R Block is to taxes. SCI, the largest funeral services company in the world, owns about 4,400 funeral homes, cemeteries, and crematoria in 18 countries, mostly in the US and Canada (which account for about two-thirds of its sales), and also in Australia, the UK, and France. Its services include embalmment, burial, and cremation. The company also sells prearranged funeral services, caskets, burial vaults, cremation receptacles, flowers, and burial garments. An acquisition binge in recent years has left the company with sizable debt. To bump up finances, SCI has sold its insurance subsidiary and has begun selling funeral locations and cemeteries.
