Looking for insight into this industry. At first glance the industry appears overlooked - around 80% of funeral homes, crematoriums, cemeteries, etc. are still mom-and-pop enterprises, the larger market share holders seem to have decent profit margins and returns on equity, and the population is getting older.
This might mean that the leading companies like $CSV, $HI and $SCI have a lot of room for future growth and consolidation, yet they also might not be a good investing choice because a quick look at their financials shows that they all seem to be pretty heavily in debt.
Any thoughts?
