Company snapshot — Service Corporation International

SCI in five paragraphs: what it makes and sells, where it sits in the Closelooknet stack, who it is priced against, why we track it, what we watch. Research diary, not advice.

What it does
Service Corporation International runs funeral homes, cemeteries, and cremation facilities across the United States and Canada, often combining funeral and cemetery operations on one site. It sells related merchandise such as caskets, urns, burial containers, and memorial markers, and offers planning and travel-protection services alongside these. Brands under its umbrella include Dignity Memorial and Neptune Society. It is based in Houston, Texas.
Where it sits in the stack
Service Corporation International carries no Rubin or Halo seat, so it sits outside the diary's AI build-out framework entirely. It belongs to the Personal Services industry within Consumer Cyclical, in the deathcare segment of the wider market.
Who it is priced against
Its peer group is drawn on Personal Services within the United States, ranked on trend state rather than a score since it carries none. That cohort includes H&R Block, Bright Horizons Family Solutions, and Rollins; the market also names Carriage Services as a comparable deathcare operator.
Why Closelooknet tracks it
It holds a seat in the Russell 1000 but carries no Closelooknet score, so its cohort is ranked on distance to its moving averages instead. It has not drawn a diary quote and shows no mention count in recent editions.
What the diary watches
The diary watches how funeral and cremation volumes move across its combined locations, and whether pricing there offsets any softening in demand.
