Fair Value Inputs, Liabilities, Quantitative Information

The following tables present additional quantitative information about assets measured at fair value and for which Heartland has utilized Level 3 inputs to determine fair value, in thousands:



	Fair Value at 3/31/15		Valuation Technique	Unobservable Input	Range (Weighted Average)
Z-TRANCHE Securities	$	5,083	Discounted cash flows	Pretax discount rate	7.00 - 9.00%
				Actual defaults	17.30 - 36.76% (30.07%)
				Actual deferrals	5.84 - 27.13% (17.35%)
Corporate debt securities	740		Discounted cash flows	Bank analysis	⁽¹⁾
Interest rate lock commitments	6,875		Discounted cash flows	Closing ratio	⁽²⁾
Collateral dependent impaired loans:
Commercial	68		Modified appraised value	Third party appraisal	⁽³⁾

Commercial real estate	6,285		Modified appraised value	Third party appraisal	⁽³⁾
				Appraisal discount	⁽³⁾
Agricultural and agricultural real estate	276		Modified appraised value	Third party appraisal	⁽³⁾

Other real estate owned	19,097		Modified appraised value	Third party appraisal	⁽³⁾

(1) The unobservable input is the bank analysis market using Moody's Global Bank Rating Methodology. The analysis takes into consideration various performance metrics as well as yield on the debt securities and credit risk analysis.
(2) The significant unobservable input used in the fair value measurement is the closing ratio, which represents the percentage of loans currently in a lock position which management estimates will ultimately close. The closing ratio calculation takes into consideration historical data and loan-level data; therefore providing a range would not be meaningful. The weighted average closing ratio at March 31, 2015 was 83%.
(3) Third party appraisals are obtained as to the value of the underlying asset, but disclosure of this information would not provide meaningful information, as the range will vary widely from loan to loan. Types of discounts considered included age of the appraisal, local market conditions, current condition of the property, and estimated sales costs. These discounts will also vary from loan to loan, thus providing range would not be meaningful.

Fair Value, by Balance Sheet Grouping

The following analysis, which is inherently limited in depicting fair value, also does not consider any value associated with either existing customer relationships or the ability of Heartland to create value through loan origination, deposit gathering or fee generating activities. Many of the estimates presented herein are based upon the use of highly subjective information and assumptions and, accordingly, the results may not be precise. Management believes that fair value estimates may not be comparable between financial institutions due to the wide range of permitted valuation techniques and numerous estimates which must be made. Furthermore, because the disclosed fair value amounts were estimated as of the balance sheet date, the amounts actually realized or paid upon maturity or settlement of the various financial instruments could be significantly different.

- Definition

Tabular disclosure of the fair value measurement of assets using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3), a reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances, separately presenting changes during the period attributable to the following: (1) total gains or losses for the period (realized and unrealized), segregating those gains or losses included in earnings (or changes in net assets) and gains or losses recognized in other comprehensive income (loss), and a description of where those gains or losses included in earnings (or changes in net assets) are reported in the statement of income (or activities); (2) purchases, sales, issues, and settlements (each type disclosed separately); and (3) transfers in and transfers out of Level 3 (for example, transfers due to changes in the observability of significant inputs), by class of asset.
