The following information is being furnished pursuant to Item 12 “Disclosure of Results of Operations and Financial Condition,” and is included under this Item 9 in accordance with the procedure guidance in SEC Release No. 33-8216.
On May 12, 2003 Carriage Services, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing its financial results for its fiscal first quarter ended March 31, 2003. A copy of the press release issued by the Company is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.

The press release shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or otherwise subject to liabilities of that Section.
The Company’s press release contains non-GAAP financial measures. Generally, a non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company’s performance, financial position, or cash flows that either excludes or includes amounts that are not normally excluded or included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP. Pursuant to the requirements of Regulation G, the Company has provided quantitative reconciliations within the press release of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.
