Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	BASIS OF PRESENTATION The interim unaudited consolidated financial statements contained herein should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes to the consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016 , included in the Form 10-K of Heartland Financial USA, Inc. ("Heartland") filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on March 1, 2017 . Foot note disclosures to the interim unaudited consolidated financial statements which would substantially duplicate the disclosure contained in the footnotes to the audited consolidated financial statements have been omitted. The financial information of Heartland included herein has been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial reporting and has been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations for reporting on Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Such information reflects all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments), that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations for the periods presented. The results of the interim period ended June 30, 2017 , are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the year ending December 31, 2017 . Earnings Per Share Basic earnings per share is determined using net income available to common stockholders and weighted average common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average common shares and assumed incremental common shares issued. Amounts used in the determination of basic and diluted earnings per share for the three- and six- month periods ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 , are shown in the table below: Three Months Ended June 30, (Dollars and number of shares in thousands, except per share data) 2017 2016 Net income $ 21,958 $ 20,970 Preferred dividends and discount (13 ) (52 ) Interest expense on convertible preferred debt 4 31 Net income available to common stockholders $ 21,949 $ 20,949 Weighted average common shares outstanding for basic earnings per share 26,687 24,524 Assumed incremental common shares issued upon exercise of stock options and non-vested restricted stock units 286 451 Weighted average common shares for diluted earnings per share 26,973 24,975 Earnings per common share — basic $ 0.82 $ 0.85 Earnings per common share — diluted $ 0.81 $ 0.84 Number of antidilutive common stock equivalents excluded from diluted earnings per share computation — — Six Months Ended (Dollars and number of shares in thousands, except per share data) 2017 2016 Net income $ 39,968 $ 40,979 Preferred dividends (32 ) (220 ) Interest expense on convertible preferred debt 9 31 Net income available to common stockholders $ 39,945 $ 40,790 Weighted average common shares outstanding for basic earnings per share 26,512 24,093 Assumed incremental common shares issued upon exercise of stock options and non-vested restricted stock units 286 448 Weighted average common shares for diluted earnings per share 26,798 24,541 Earnings per common share — basic $ 1.51 $ 1.69 Earnings per common share — diluted $ 1.49 $ 1.66 Number of antidilutive common stock equivalents excluded from diluted earnings per share computation — — Stock-Based Compensation Heartland may grant, through its Nominating and Compensation Committee (the "Compensation Committee"), non-qualified and incentive stock options, stock appreciation rights, stock awards, restricted stock, restricted stock units and cash incentive awards, under its 2012 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the "Plan"). The Plan was originally approved by stockholders in May 2012 and was amended effective March 8, 2016, to increase the number of shares of common stock authorized for issuance and make certain other changes to the Plan. As of June 30, 2017 , 494,046 shares of common stock were available for issuance under future awards that may be granted under the Plan to employees and directors of, and service providers to, Heartland or its subsidiaries. Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 718, "Compensation-Stock Compensation" requires the measurement of the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based upon the fair value of the award on the grant date. The cost of the award is based upon its fair value estimated on the date of grant and recognized in the consolidated statements of income over the vesting period of the award. The fair market value of restricted stock and restricted stock units is based on the fair value of the underlying shares of common stock on the date of grant. The fair value of stock options is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes model. The amount of tax benefit related to the exercise, vesting and forfeiture of equity-based awards reflected as a tax benefit in Heartland's income tax expense was $989,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2017 . Prior to the adoption of ASU 2016-09 on January 1, 2017, $1.1 million of tax benefit related to the exercise, vesting and forfeiture of equity based awards was reflected in additional paid-in-capital during the six months ended June 30, 2016. Restricted Stock Units The Plan permits the Compensation Committee to grant restricted stock units ("RSUs"). In the first quarter of 2017, the Compensation Committee granted time-based RSUs with respect to 55,665 shares of common stock, and in the first quarter of 2016, the Compensation Committee granted time-based RSUs with respect to 72,644 shares of common stock to selected officers and employees. The time-based RSUs represent the right, without payment, to receive shares of Heartland common stock at a specified date in the future. These time-based RSUs vest over three years in equal installments on the first, second and third anniversaries of the grant date. The time-based RSUs will be settled in common stock upon vesting, and will not be entitled to dividends until vested. The time-based RSUs may also vest upon death or disability, upon a change in control or upon a "qualified retirement" (as defined in the RSU agreement). The retiree is required to sign a non-solicitation and non-compete agreement as a condition to vesting. In addition to the time-based RSUs referenced in the preceding paragraph, the Compensation Committee granted performance-based RSUs with respect to 27,570 shares of common stock in the first quarter of 2017, and 35,516 shares of common stock in the first quarter of 2016. These performance-based RSUs are earned based on satisfaction of performance targets for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2017, and December 31, 2016, respectively, and then fully vest two years after the end of the performance period. For the grants awarded in 2017, the portion of the RSUs earned based on performance vests on December 31, 2019, and for the grants awarded in 2016, the portion of the RSUs earned based on performance vests on December 31, 2018, subject to employment on the respective vesting dates. The performance-based RSUs vest to the extent that they are earned upon death or disability, upon a change in control or upon a "qualified retirement." The Compensation Committee also granted three -year performance-based RSUs with respect to 9,032 shares of common stock in the first quarter of 2017, and 11,408 shares of common stock in the first quarter of 2016. These performance-based RSUs will be earned based on satisfaction of performance targets for the three -year performance period ended December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. These performance-based RSUs or a portion thereof may vest in 2020 and 2019, respectively, after measurement of performance in relation to the performance targets. Upon death, disability, or a "qualified retirement," all performance-based RSUs granted in 2016 remain outstanding and are earned based on actual performance at the end of each performance period. All RSUs granted on or after March 8, 2016, become fully vested upon a change in control if (1) they are not assumed by the successor corporation or (2) upon an involuntary termination of the participant's employment within two years after the change in control. The Compensation Committee may grant RSUs under the Plan to directors as part of their compensation, to new management level employees at commencement of employment, and to other employees and service providers as incentives. During the six months ended June 30, 2017 , and June 30, 2016 , 15,978 and 22,153 time-based RSUs, respectively, were granted to directors and new employees. A summary of the RSUs outstanding as of June 30, 2017 and 2016 , and changes during the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 , follows: 2017 2016 Shares Weighted-Average Grant Date Fair Value Shares Weighted-Average Grant Date Fair Value Outstanding at January 1 346,817 $ 27.61 353,195 $ 25.53 Granted 108,245 47.21 141,721 29.79 Vested (125,840 ) 26.32 (117,898 ) 23.40 Forfeited (10,563 ) 31.78 (10,892 ) 27.13 Outstanding at June 30 318,659 $ 34.64 366,126 $ 27.60 Total compensation costs recorded for RSUs were $2.7 million and $2.4 million for the six -month periods ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 . As of June 30, 2017 , there were $5.3 million of total unrecognized compensation costs related to the Plan for RSUs that are expected to be recognized through 2020. Options Although the Plan provides authority to the Compensation Committee to grant stock options, no options were granted during the first six months of 2017 and 2016 . Prior to 2009, options were typically granted annually with an expiration date ten years after the date of grant. Vesting was generally over a five -year service period with equal portions of a grant becoming exercisable at three years, four years, and five years after the date of grant. A summary of the stock options outstanding as of June 30, 2017 and 2016 , and changes during the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 , follows: 2017 2016 Shares Weighted-Average Exercise Price Shares Weighted-Average Exercise Price Outstanding at January 1 26,400 $ 18.60 125,950 $ 24.08 Granted — — — — Exercised (8,250 ) 18.60 (35,000 ) 23.53 Forfeited (500 ) 18.60 (1,500 ) 21.10 Outstanding at June 30 17,650 $ 18.60 89,450 $ 24.34 Options exercisable at June 30 17,650 $ 18.60 89,450 $ 24.34 At June 30, 2017 , the vested options totale d 17,650 shares with a weighted average exercise price of $ 18.60 per share and a weighted average remaining contractual life of 0.57 years. The intrinsic value (the difference between the market price and the aggregate exercise price) for the vested options as of June 30, 2017 , was $503,000 . The intrinsic value for the total of all options exercised during the six months ended June 30, 2017 , was $237,000 . The exercise price of stock options granted is established by the Compensation Committee, but the exercise price for the stock options may not be less than the fair market value of the shares on the date that the option is granted or, if greater, the par value of a share of stock. Each option granted is exercisable in full at any time or from time to time, subject to vesting provisions, as determined by the Compensation Committee and as provided in the option agreement, but such time may not exceed ten years from the grant date. Cash received from options exercised was $ 153,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2017 , and $824,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2016 . No compensation costs were recorded for options during both six month periods ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 . There are no unrecorded compensation costs related to options at June 30, 2017 . No stock options vested during the six -month periods ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 . Subsequent Events - Heartland has evaluated subsequent events that may require recognition or disclosure through the filing date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q with the SEC. On July 7, 2017, Heartland completed the acquisition of Citywide Banks of Colorado, Inc., parent company of Citywide Banks, based in Denver, Colorado. See Note 2, "Acquisitions," for further details regarding this transaction. Effect of New Financial Accounting Standards In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers." The amendment clarifies the principles for recognizing revenue and develops a common revenue standard. The amendment outlines a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. The core principle of the revenue model is that “an entity recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services.” In applying the revenue model to contracts within its scope, an entity should apply the following steps: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer, (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (iii) determine the transaction price, (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. The new guidance does not apply to certain contracts within the scope of other ASC Topics, such as lease contracts, insurance contracts, financing arrangements, financial instruments, guarantees other than product or service warranties and nonmonetary exchanges between entities in the same line of business to facilitate sales to customers. Heartland continues to evaluate noninterest income contracts affected by the new guidance by analyzing contracts and current accounting practices to determine if a change is appropriate. The amendment is largely consistent with existing guidance and current practices. Heartland intends to adopt the accounting standard in 2018, as required, which may require a change in the recognition of certain recurring revenue streams within trust and investment management fees; however, Heartland's preliminary analysis suggests the adoption of these amendments are not expected to have a significant effect on Heartland's results of operations, financial position and liquidity. In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, "Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities." The amendments in ASU 2016-01 to Subtopic 825-10, Financial Instruments, make the following changes: (1) require equity investments to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income; (2) simplify the impairment assessment of equity investments without readily determinable fair values by requiring a qualitative assessment to identify impairment; (3) eliminate the requirement for public entities to disclose the methods and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value that is required to be disclosed for financial instruments measured at amortized cost on the balance sheet; (4) require public business entities to use the exit price notion when measuring the fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes; (5) require an entity to present separately in other comprehensive income the portion of the total change in the fair value of a liability resulting from a change in the instrument-specific credit risk when the entity has elected to measure the liability at fair value in accordance with the fair value option for financial instruments; (6) require separate presentation of financial assets and financial liabilities by measurement category and form of financial asset on the balance sheet or accompanying notes to the financial statements; (7) clarify that the entity should evaluate the need for a valuation allowance on a deferred tax asset related to available for sale securities in combination with the entity's other deferred tax assets. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and for interim periods within those fiscal years. Except for the early application of the amendment noted in item (5) above, early adoption of the amendments in this update is not permitted. Heartland intends to adopt the accounting standard in 2018, as required, and is currently evaluating the potential impact of this guidance on its results of operations, financial position and liquidity. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, "Leases (Topic 842)." Topic 842 requires a lessee to recognize leases on its balance sheet and disclose key information about leasing arrangements. The new standard establishes a right-of-use model (ROU) that requires a lessee to recognize a ROU asset and lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with a term longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as financing or operating, with such classification affecting the categorization of expense recognition in the income statement. The amendment is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years, and will be applied on a modified retrospective basis. Heartland leases certain properties and equipment under operating leases that will result in recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets under this ASU; however the majority of Heartland's properties and equipment are owned and not leased. Heartland intends to adopt the accounting standard in 2019 as required. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, "Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718)." The amendments in this ASU simplify several aspects of the accounting for share-based payments, including income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities and classification on the statement of cash flows. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption was permitted for any interim or annual period prior to the effective date. Heartland adopted this ASU on January 1, 2017, as required, using a prospective transition method. The requirement to report the excess tax benefit or shortfall related to settlements of share-based payment awards in earnings as an increase or decrease to tax expense has been applied to settlements occurring on or after January 1, 2017, and the impact of applying the guidance reduced reported income tax expense by $989,000 . ASU 2016-09 also requires that all income tax related cash flows resulting from share-based payments be reported as an operating activity in the consolidated statements of cash flow. Previously income tax benefits resulting from the settlement of a share-based award were reported as a reduction of operating cash flows and an increase to financing cash flows to the extent that those benefits exceeded the income tax benefits reported in earnings during the period in which the share-based awards vested. Heartland elected to adopt the change in cash flow classification on a retrospective basis, which resulted in a $1.1 million increase to net cash from operating activities and a corresponding decrease to net cash from financing activities in the accompanying consolidated statement of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2016. Heartland has elected to account for forfeitures as they occur. In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, "Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326)." The amendments in this ASU require a financial asset (or a group of financial assets) measured at amortized cost basis to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. The allowance for credit losses is a valuation account that is deducted from the amortized cost basis of the financial asset(s) to present the net carrying value at the amount expected to be collected on the financial asset. The amendments in this ASU indicate that an entity should not use the length of time a security has been in an unrealized loss position to avoid recording a credit loss. In addition, in determining whether a credit loss exists, the amendments in this ASU also remove the requirements to consider the historical and implied volatility of the fair value of a security and recoveries or declines in fair value after the balance sheet date. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Heartland intends to adopt the accounting standard in 2020, as required. Heartland has formed a committee to review the standard, understand the potential impact of this guidance on its results of operations, financial position and liquidity, and oversee the implementation of the standard. In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, "Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230) - Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments." The amendments in this update address eight specific cash flow issues with the objective of reducing the existing diversity in practice. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. If an entity adopts the amendments early in an interim period, any adjustments must be reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes the interim period. An entity that elects early adoption must adopt all of the amendments in the same period. The amendments in this update must be applied using a retrospective transition method to each period presented. Heartland intends to adopt this ASU in 2018, as required, and is currently evaluating the potential impact on its results of operations, financial position, and liquidity. In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, "Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350)." This amendment is to simplify the subsequent measurement of goodwill by eliminating step two from the goodwill impairment test. Instead, an entity will perform only step one of its quantitative goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount, and then recognizing the impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit's fair value; however, the loss recognized cannot exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. An entity will still have the option to perform a qualitative assessment for a reporting unit to determine if the quantitative step one impairment test is necessary. This amendment is effective for annual or interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and should be applied prospectively. Early adoption is permitted, including in an interim period for impairment tests performed after January 1, 2017. Heartland intends to adopt this ASU in the third quarter of 2020, consistent with the annual impairment test as of September 30, 2020, and is currently evaluating the potential impact of this guidance on its results of operations, financial position and liquidity. In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-08, "Receivables - Nonrefundable Fee and Other Costs (Subtopic 310-20)." These amendments shorten the amortization period for certain callable debt securities held at a premium. Specifically, the amendments require the premium to be amortized to the earliest call date. The amendments do not require an accounting change for securities held at a discount. Discounts continue to be amortized to maturity. These amendments are effective for public business entities for fiscal years and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. If any entity early adopts the amendments in an interim period, any adjustments must be reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes the interim period. The amendments must be applied on a modified retrospective basis, with a cumulative-effect adjustment directly to retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption. Heartland intends to adopt this ASU in 2019, as required, and is currently evaluating the potential impact on its results of operations, financial position, and liquidity.

The investments were segregated into two categories: those that have been in a continuous unrealized loss position for less than 12 months and those that have been in a continuous unrealized loss position for 12 months or more. The reference point for determining how long an investment was in an unrealized loss position w as June 30, 2016 , and December 31, 2015 , respectively. Securities for which Heartland has taken credit-related other-than-temporary impairment ("OTTI") write-downs are categorized as being "less than 12 months" or "12 months or longer" in a continuous loss position based on the point in time that the fair value declined to below the cost basis and not the period of time since the credit-related OTTI write-down.

A determination as to whether a security's decline in fair value is other-than-temporary takes into consideration numerous factors and the relative significance of any single factor can vary by security. Some factors Heartland may consider in the OTTI analysis include the length of time the security has been in an unrealized loss position, changes in security ratings, financial condition of the issuer, as well as security and industry specific economic conditions. In addition, with regard to debt securities, Heartland may also evaluate payment structure, whether there are defaulted payments or expected defaults, prepayment speeds and the value of any underlying collateral. For certain debt securities in unrealized loss positions, Heartland prepares cash flow analyses to compare the present value of cash flows expected to be collected from the security with the amortized cost basis of the security. The remaining unrealized losses on Heartland's mortgage-backed securities are the result of changes in market interest rates or widening of market spreads subsequent to the initial purchase of the securities. The losses are not related to concerns regarding the underlying credit of the issuers or the underlying collateral. It is expected that the securities will not be settled at a price less than the amortized cost of the investment. Because the decline in fair value is attributable to changes in interest rates or widening market spreads and not credit quality, and because Heartland has the intent and ability to hold these investments until a market price recovery or to maturity and does not believe it will be required to sell the securities before maturity, these investments are not considered other-than-temporarily impaired. The remaining unrealized losses on Heartland's obligations of states and political subdivisions are the result of changes in market interest rates or widening of market spreads subsequent to the initial purchase of the securities. Management monitors the published credit ratings of these securities and the stability of the underlying municipalities. Because the decline in fair value is attributable to changes in interest rates or widening market spreads due to insurance company downgrades and not underlying credit quality, and because Heartland has the intent and ability to hold these investments until a market price recovery or to maturity and does not believe it will be required to sell the securities before maturity, these investments are not considered other-than-temporarily impaired. There were no available for sale or held to maturity securities with OTTI write-downs held as of or for the six-month period ended June 30, 2017. There were no gross realized gains and $85,000 of gross realized losses on the sale of available for sale securities with OTTI writedowns for the six-month period ended June 30, 2016 . Additionally, there were no gross realized gains and $439,000 of gross realized losses on the sale of held to maturity securities with OTTI write-downs for the six-month period ended June 30, 2016 . The following table shows the detail of OTTI write-downs on debt securities included in earnings and the related changes in other accumulated comprehensive income ("AOCI") for the same securities, in thousands: Three Months Ended Six Months Ended 2017 2016 2017 2016 Recorded as part of gross realized losses: Credit related OTTI $ — $ — $ — $ — Intent to sell OTTI — — — — Total recorded as part of gross realized losses — — — — Recorded directly to AOCI for non-credit related impairment: Residential mortgage backed securities — — — — Reduction of non-credit related impairment related to security sales — — — (120 ) Accretion of non-credit related impairment — — — (7 ) Total changes to AOCI for non-credit related impairment — — — (127 ) Total OTTI losses (accretion) recorded on debt securities, net $ — $ — $ — $ (127 ) Included in other securities at June 30, 2017 , and December 31, 2016 , were shares of stock in the Federal Home Loan Banks (the "FHLBs") of Des Moines, Chicago, Dallas, San Francisco and Topeka at an amortized cost of $14.0 million and $ 14.4 million , respectively. The Heartland banks are required by federal law to maintain FHLB stock as members of the various FHLBs. These equity securities are "restricted" in that they can only be sold back to the respective institutions from which they were acquired or another member institution at par. Therefore, the FHLB stock is less liquid than other marketable equity securities, and the fair value approximates amortized cost. Heartland considers its FHLB stock as a long-term investment that provides access to competitive products and liquidity. Heartland evaluates impairment in these investments based on the ultimate recoverability of the par value and, at June 30, 2017 , did not consider the investments to be other than temporarily impaired.

Receivables [Abstract]
Loans	LOANS Loans as of June 30, 2017 , and December 31, 2016 , were as follows, in thousands: June 30, 2017 December 31, 2016 Loans receivable held to maturity: Commercial $ 1,344,323 $ 1,287,265 Commercial real estate 2,458,688 2,538,582 Agricultural and agricultural real estate 495,243 489,318 Residential real estate 596,385 617,924 Consumer 431,052 420,613 Gross loans receivable held to maturity 5,325,691 5,353,702 Unearned discount (639 ) (699 ) Deferred loan fees 30 (1,284 ) Total net loans receivable held to maturity 5,325,082 5,351,719 Allowance for loan losses (54,051 ) (54,324 ) Loans receivable, net $ 5,271,031 $ 5,297,395 Heartland has certain lending policies and procedures in place that are designed to provide for an acceptable level of credit risk. The board of directors reviews and approves these policies and procedures on a regular basis. A reporting system supplements the review process by providing management and the board with frequent reports related to loan production, loan quality, concentrations of credit, loan delinquencies, nonperforming loans and potential problem loans. Diversification in the loan portfolio is also a means of managing risk associated with fluctuations in economic conditions. The commercial and commercial real estate loan portfolio includes a wide range of business loans, including lines of credit for working capital and operational purposes and term loans for the acquisition of equipment and real estate. Although most loans are made on a secured basis, loans may be made on an unsecured basis if warranted by the overall financial condition of the borrower. Terms of commercial business loans generally range from one to five years. Commercial loans are primarily made based on the identified cash flow of the borrower and secondarily on the underlying collateral provided by the borrower. The collateral that Heartland requires for most of these loans is based upon the discounted market value of the collateral. The primary repayment risks of commercial loans are that the cash flow of the borrowers may be unpredictable, and the collateral securing these loans may fluctuate in value. Heartland seeks to minimize these risks in a variety of ways. The underwriting analysis includes credit verification, analysis of global cash flows, appraisals and a review of the financial condition of the borrower. Personal guarantees are frequently required as a tertiary form of repayment. In addition, when underwriting loans for commercial real estate, careful consideration is given to the property's operating history, future operating projections, current and projected occupancy, location and physical condition. Heartland also utilizes government guaranteed lending through the U.S. Small Business Administration and the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Rural Development Business and Industry Program to assist customers with longer-term funding and to reduce risk. Agricultural loans, many of which are secured by crops, machinery and real estate, are provided to finance capital improvements and farm operations as well as acquisitions of livestock and machinery. Agricultural loans present unique credit risks relating to adverse weather conditions, loss of livestock due to disease or other reasons, declines in market prices for agricultural products and the impact of government regulations. The ultimate repayment of agricultural loans is dependent upon the profitable operation or management of the agricultural entity. In underwriting agricultural loans, lending personnel work closely with their customers to review budgets and cash flow projections for crop production for the ensuing year. These budgets and cash flow projections are monitored closely during the year and reviewed with the customers at least annually. Lending personnel also work closely with governmental agencies, including the Farm Service Agency, to help agricultural customers obtain credit enhancement products such as loan guarantees or interest assistance. Heartland originates first-lien, adjustable-rate and fixed-rate, one-to-four-family residential real estate loans for the construction, purchase or refinancing of a single family residential property. These loans are principally collateralized by owner-occupied properties and are amortized over 10 to 30 years. Heartland typically sells longer-term, low-rate, residential mortgage loans in the secondary market with servicing rights retained. This practice allows Heartland to better manage interest rate risk and liquidity risk. The Heartland bank subsidiaries participate in lending programs sponsored by U.S. government agencies such as Veterans Administration and Federal Home Administration when justified by market conditions. As of June 30, 2017 , Heartland had $5.1 million of loans secured by residential real estate property that were in the process of foreclosure. Consumer lending includes motor vehicle, home improvement, home equity and small personal credit lines. Consumer loans typically have shorter terms, lower balances, higher yields and higher risks of default than one-to-four-family residential mortgage loans. Consumer loan collections are dependent on the borrower's continuing financial stability, and are therefore more likely to be affected by adverse personal circumstances. Risk is reduced through underwriting criteria, which include credit verification, appraisals, a review of the borrower's financial condition, and personal cash flows. A security interest, with title insurance when necessary, is taken in the underlying real estate. Heartland's consumer finance subsidiaries, Citizens Finance Co. and Citizens Finance of Illinois Co., typically lend to borrowers with past credit problems or limited credit histories, and these loans comprise approximately 18% of Heartland's total consumer loan portfolio. Loans are considered past due if the required principal and interest payments have not been received as of the date such payments were due. Heartland’s policy is to discontinue the accrual of interest income on any loan when, in the opinion of management, there is a reasonable doubt as to the timely collection of the interest and principal, normally when a loan is 90 days past due. When interest accruals are deemed uncollectible, interest credited to income in the current year is reversed and interest accrued in prior years is charged to the allowance for loan losses. Nonaccrual loans are returned to an accrual status when, in the opinion of management, the financial position of the borrower indicates that there is no longer any reasonable doubt as to the timely payment of interest and principal. Under Heartland’s credit practices, a loan is impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that Heartland will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Loan impairment is measured based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, except where more practical, impairment is measured at the observable market price of the loan or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. The following table shows the balance in the allowance for loan losses at June 30, 2017 , and December 31, 2016 , and the related loan balances, disaggregated on the basis of impairment methodology, in thousands. Loans evaluated under ASC 310-10-35 include loans on nonaccrual status and troubled debt restructurings, which are individually evaluated for impairment, and other impaired loans deemed to have similar risk characteristics. All other loans are collectively evaluated for impairment under ASC 450-20. Heartland has made no significant changes to the accounting for the allowance for loan losses during 2017.

The "pass" category consists of all loans that are not in the "nonpass" category, categorized into a range of loan grades that reflect increasing, though still acceptable, risk. Movement of risk through the various grade levels in the pass category is monitored for early identification of credit deterioration. The "nonpass" category consists of special mention, substandard, doubtful and loss loans. The "special mention" rating is attached to loans where the borrower exhibits negative trends in financial circumstances due to borrower specific or systemic conditions that, if left uncorrected, threaten the borrower's capacity to meet its debt obligations. The borrower is believed to have sufficient financial flexibility to react to and resolve its negative financial situation. These credits are closely monitored for improvement or deterioration. The "substandard" rating is assigned to loans that are inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the borrower and that may be further at risk due to deterioration in the value of collateral pledged. Well-defined weaknesses jeopardize liquidation of the debt. These loans are still considered collectible; however, a distinct possibility exists that Heartland will sustain some loss if deficiencies are not corrected. Substandard loans may exhibit some or all of the following weaknesses: deteriorating financial trends, lack of earnings, inadequate debt service capacity, excessive debt and/or lack of liquidity. The "doubtful" rating is assigned to loans where identified weaknesses in the borrowers' ability to repay the loan make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of existing facts, conditions and values, highly questionable and improbable. These borrowers are usually in default, lack liquidity and capital, as well as resources necessary to remain as an operating entity. Specific pending events, such as capital injections, liquidations or perfection of liens on additional collateral, may strengthen the credit, thus deferring the rating of the loan as "loss" until the exact status of the loan can be determined. The loss rating is assigned to loans considered uncollectible. As of June 30, 2017 , Heartland had no loans classified as doubtful and no loans classified as loss. Loans are placed on "nonaccrual" when management does not expect to collect payments of principal and interest in full or when principal or interest has been in default for a period of 90 days or more, unless the loan is both well secured and in the process of collection.

The percent of nonpass loans on nonaccrual status as of June 30, 2017 , was 18% . As of December 31, 2016 , the nonpass category in the table above was comprised of approximately 47% special mention loans and 53% substandard loans. The percent of nonpass loans on nonaccrual status as of December 31, 2016 , was 17% . Loans delinquent 30 to 89 days as a percent of total loans were 0.38% at June 30, 2017 , compared to 0 .37% at December 31, 2016 . Changes in credit risk are monitored on a regular basis and changes in risk ratings are made when identified. All impaired loans are reviewed at least annually.

As of February 28, 2017, Founders Community Bank had gross loans of $98.9 million , and the estimated fair value of the loans acquired was $96.4 million . On February 5, 2016, Heartland acquired CIC Bancshares, Inc., parent company of Centennial Bank, in Denver, Colorado. As of February 5, 2016, Centennial Bank had gross loans of $ 594.9 million , and the estimated fair value of the loans acquired was $ 581.5 million . Heartland uses the acquisition method of accounting for purchased loans in accordance with ASC 805, " Business Combinations." Purchased loans acquired in a business combination are recorded at estimated fair value on their purchase date, but the purchaser cannot carry over the related allowance for loan losses. Purchased loans are accounted for under ASC 310-30, " Loans and Debt Securities with Deteriorated Credit Quality," when the loans have evidence of credit deterioration since origination, and when at the date of the acquisition, it is probable that Heartland will not collect all contractually required principal and interest payments. Evidence of credit quality deterioration at the purchase date includes statistics such as past due and nonaccrual status. Generally, acquired loans that meet Heartland’s definition for nonaccrual status fall within the scope of ASC 310-30. The difference between contractually required payments at acquisition and the cash flows expected to be collected at acquisition is referred to as the nonaccretable difference, which is included in the carrying value of the loans. Subsequent decreases to the expected cash flows of the loan will generally result in a provision for loan losses. Subsequent increases in cash flows result in a reversal of the provision for loan losses to the extent of prior charges, or a reclassification of the difference from nonaccretable to accretable with a positive impact on future interest income. Further, any excess of cash flows expected at acquisition over the estimated fair value is referred to as the accretable yield and is recognized into interest income over the remaining life of the loan when there is a reasonable expectation about the amount and timing of such cash flows. At June 30, 2017 , and December 31, 2016 , the carrying amount of loans acquired since 2015 consist of purchased impaired and nonimpaired loans as summarized in the following table, in thousands: June 30, 2017 December 31, 2016 Impaired Non Impaired Total Loans Impaired Non Impaired Total Loans Commercial $ 1,505 $ 70,535 $ 72,040 $ 2,198 $ 99,082 $ 101,280 Commercial real estate 2,539 570,903 573,442 2,079 622,117 624,196 Agricultural and agricultural real estate — 1,265 1,265 — 181 181 Residential real estate 195 137,862 138,057 186 157,468 157,654 Consumer loans — 45,417 45,417 — 47,368 47,368 Total loans $ 4,239 $ 825,982 $ 830,221 $ 4,463 $ 926,216 $ 930,679 Changes in accretable yield on acquired loans with evidence of credit deterioration at the date of acquisition for the three- and six- month periods ended June 30, 2017 , and June 30, 2016 , were as follows, in thousands: Three Months Ended Six Months Ended 2017 2016 2017 2016 Balance at beginning of period $ 136 $ 305 $ 182 $ 557 Original yield discount, net, at date of acquisitions — — — 19 Accretion (201 ) (193 ) (374 ) (466 ) Reclassification from nonaccretable difference (1) 166 56 293 58 Balance at period end $ 101 $ 168 $ 101 $ 168 (1) Represents increases in estimated cash flows expected to be received, primarily due to lower estimated credit losses. For loans acquired since January 2015, on the acquisition dates the preliminary estimate of the contractually required payments receivable for all loans with evidence of credit deterioration since origination was $21.0 million , and the estimated fair value of these loans was $13.1 million . At June 30, 2017 , a majority of these loans were valued based upon the liquidation value of the underlying collateral, because the expected cash flows are primarily based on the liquidation of such collateral, and the timing and amount of the cash flows could not be reasonably estimated. At June 30, 2017 , and December 31, 2016 , there was an allowance for loan losses of $ 128,000 and $588,000 , respectively, related to these ASC 310-30 loans. Provision expense of $ 0 and $267,000 was recorded for the three month periods ended June 30, 2017 , and 2016 , respectively. Provision expense of $1,000 and $391,000 was recorded for the six month periods ended June 30, 2017, and 2016, respectively. For loans acquired since January 2015, the preliminary estimate on the acquisition dates of the contractually required payments receivable for all nonimpaired loans acquired was $1.65 billion , and the estimated fair value of the loans was $1.60 billion .

Goodwill, Core Deposit Premium and Other Intangible Assets	GOODWILL, CORE DEPOSIT PREMIUM AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS Heartland had goodwill of $ 141.5 million at June 30, 2017 , and $127.7 million at December 31, 2016 . Heartland conducts its annual internal assessment of the goodwill both at the consolidated level and at its subsidiaries as of September 30. There was no goodwill impairment as of the most recent assessment. Heartland recorded $13.8 million of goodwill and $2.5 million of core deposit intangibles in connection with the acquisition of Founders Bancorp, parent company of Founders Community Bank, based in San Luis Obispo, California on February 28, 2017. Heartland recorded $ 29.8 million of goodwill in connection with the acquisition of CIC Bancshares, Inc., parent company of Centennial Bank, based in Denver, Colorado on February 5, 2016. In addition, Heartland recognized core deposit intangibles of $ 6.4 million and commercial servicing rights of $190,000 with this acquisition. The core deposit intangibles recorded with the Founders Bancorp and CIC Bancshares, Inc., acquisitions are not deductible for tax purposes and are expected to be amortized over a period of 10 years on an accelerated basis. Goodwill related to the Founders Bancorp and CIC Bancshares, Inc. acquisitions resulted from expected operational synergies, increased market presence, cross-selling opportunities, and expanded business lines and is not deductible for tax purposes. Heartland's intangible assets consist of core deposit intangibles, mortgage servicing rights, customer relationship intangibles, and commercial servicing rights. The gross carrying amount of these intangible assets and the associated accumulated amortization at June 30, 2017 , and December 31, 2016 , are presented in the table below, in thousands: June 30, 2017 December 31, 2016 Gross Carrying Amount Accumulated Amortization Net Carrying Amount Gross Carrying Amount Accumulated Amortization Net Carrying Amount Amortizing intangible assets: Core deposit intangibles $ 45,968 $ 23,418 $ 22,550 $ 43,504 $ 21,049 $ 22,455 Customer relationship intangibles 1,177 877 300 1,177 857 320 Mortgage servicing rights 51,969 20,337 31,632 50,467 18,379 32,088 Commercial servicing rights 6,637 3,533 3,104 6,504 2,814 3,690 Total $ 105,751 $ 48,165 $ 57,586 $ 101,652 $ 43,099 $ 58,553 The following table shows the estimated future amortization expense for amortizable intangible assets, in thousands: Core Deposit Intangibles Customer Relationship Intangibles Mortgage Servicing Rights Commercial Servicing Rights Total Six months ending December 31, 2017 $ 2,369 $ 20 $ 4,937 $ 397 $ 7,723 Year ending December 31, 2018 4,261 39 6,674 744 11,718 2019 3,741 38 5,720 596 10,095 2020 3,264 36 4,767 443 8,510 2021 2,716 35 3,814 378 6,943 2022 1,876 34 2,860 304 5,074 Thereafter 4,323 98 2,860 242 7,523 Total $ 22,550 $ 300 $ 31,632 $ 3,104 $ 57,586 Projections of amortization expense for mortgage servicing rights are based on existing asset balances and the existing interest rate environment as of June 30, 2017 . Heartland's actual experience may be significantly different depending upon changes in mortgage interest rates and market conditions. Mortgage loans serviced for others were approximately $4.34 billion and $ 4.31 billion as of June 30, 2017 , and December 31, 2016 , respectively. Custodial escrow balances maintained in connection with the mortgage loan servicing portfolio were approximately $25.8 million and $21.4 million as of June 30, 2017 , and December 31, 2016 , respectively. The fair value of Heartland's mortgage servicing rights was estimated at $43.6 million at June 30, 2017 , and $45.2 million at December 31, 2016 . Heartland's mortgage servicing rights portfolio is comprised of loans serviced for the Federal National Mortgage Association, the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation, and the Government National Mortgage Association. The servicing rights portfolio is separated into 15 - and 30 -year tranches, and the servicing rights portfolio is an asset of one of Heartland's subsidiaries. The fair value of mortgage servicing rights is calculated based upon either a discounted cash flow analysis or market indication. Cash flow assumptions, including prepayment speeds, servicing costs and escrow earnings are considered in the calculation. The average constant prepayment rate was 10.30% and 9.63% for the June 30, 2017 , and December 31, 2016 , valuations, respectively. The discount rate was 9.25% and 9.26% for the June 30, 2017 , and December 31, 2016 , valuations, respectively.

The commercial servicing rights portfolio is separated into two tranches at the respective Heartland subsidiary, loans with a term of less than 20 years and loans with a term of more than 20 years . Fees collected for the servicing of commercial loans for others were $376,000 and $375,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2017 , and June 30, 2016 , respectively, and $791,000 and $455,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2017 , and June 30, 2016 , respectively. The fair value of each commercial servicing rights portfolio is calculated based upon a discounted cash flow analysis. Cash flow assumptions, including prepayment speeds and servicing costs, are considered in the calculation. The range of average constant prepayment rates for the valuations was 6.68% to 7.78% as of June 30, 2017 , compared to 6.96% to 7.88% as of December 31, 2016 . The discount rate range was 12.15% to 13.72% for the June 30, 2017 , valuations compared to 12.44% to 13.88% for the December 31, 2016 , valuations. The capitalization rate for 2017 ranged from 310 to 445 basis points compared to 310 to 445 basis points for 2016 . The total fair value of Heartland's commercial servicing rights was estimated at $3.7 million as of June 30, 2017 , and $4.8 million as of December 31, 2016.

Fair value is based on market prices for comparable servicing contracts, when available, or based on a valuation model that calculates the present value of estimated future net servicing income. Mortgage and commercial servicing rights are subsequently measured using the amortization method, which requires the asset to be amortized into noninterest income in proportion to, and over the period of, the estimated future net servicing income of the underlying loans. Servicing rights are evaluated for impairment at each Heartland subsidiary based upon the fair value of the assets as compared to the carrying amount. Impairment is recognized through a valuation allowance for specific tranches to the extent that fair value is less than carrying amount at each Heartland subsidiary. At June 30, 2017 , no valuation allowance was required on commercial servicing rights with a term less than 20 years and a $9,000 valuation allowance was required on commercial servicing rights with a term greater than 20 years. At December 31, 2016 , no valuation allowance was required on commercial servicing rights with a term less than 20 years and a $33,000 valuation allowance was required on commercial servicing rights with a term greater than 20 years.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]
Derivative Financial Instruments	DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS Heartland uses derivative financial instruments as part of its interest rate risk management strategy. As part of the strategy, Heartland considers the use of interest rate swaps, caps, floors, collars, and certain interest rate lock commitments and forward sales of securities related to mortgage banking activities. Heartland's current strategy includes the use of interest rate swaps, interest rate lock commitments and forward sales of mortgage securities. In addition, Heartland is facilitating back-to-back loan swaps to assist customers in managing interest rate risk. Heartland's objectives are to add stability to its net interest margin and to manage its exposure to movements in interest rates. The contract or notional amount of a derivative is used to determine, along with the other terms of the derivative, the amounts to be exchanged between the counterparties. Heartland is exposed to credit risk in the event of nonperformance by counterparties to financial instruments. Heartland minimizes this risk by entering into derivative contracts with counterparties that meet Heartland’s credit standards, and the contracts contain collateral provisions protecting the at-risk party. Heartland has not experienced any losses from nonperformance by these counterparties. Heartland monitors counterparty risk in accordance with the provisions of ASC 815. In addition, interest rate-related derivative instruments generally contain language outlining collateral pledging requirements for each counterparty. Collateral must be posted when the market value exceeds certain threshold limits which are determined by credit ratings of each counterparty. Heartland was required to pledge $3.1 million and $2.2 million of cash as collateral at June 30, 2017 , and December 31, 2016 , respectively. No collateral was required to be pledged by Heartland's counterparties at both June 30, 2017 , and December 31, 2016 . Heartland's derivative and hedging instruments are recorded at fair value on the consolidated balance sheets. See Note 8, “Fair Value,” for additional fair value information and disclosures. Cash Flow Hedges Heartland has variable rate funding which creates exposure to variability in interest payments due to changes in interest rates. To manage the interest rate risk related to the variability of interest payments, Heartland has entered into various interest rate swap agreements. Amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive income related to derivatives will be reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are received or made on Heartland's variable-rate liabilities. For the six months ended June 30, 2017 , the change in net unrealized losses on cash flow hedges reflects changes in the fair value of the swaps and reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive income to interest expense totaling $697,000 . For the next twelve months, Heartland estimates that cash payments and reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive income to interest expense will total $ 1.2 million . Heartland executed an interest rate swap transaction on April 5, 2011, with an effective date of April 20, 2011, to effectively convert $15.0 million of variable rate amortizing debt to fixed rate debt. For accounting purposes, this swap transaction was designated as a cash flow hedge of the changes in cash flows attributable to changes in one-month LIBOR, the benchmark interest rate being hedged. This interest rate swap transaction expired on April 20, 2016. Heartland entered into five forward starting interest rate swap transactions to effectively convert Heartland Financial Statutory Trust IV, V, and VII, which total $ 65.0 million , as well as Morrill Statutory Trust I and II, which total $ 20.0 million , from variable rate subordinated debentures to fixed rate debt. For accounting purposes, these five swap transactions are designated as cash flow hedges of the changes in LIBOR, the benchmark interest rate being hedged, associated with the interest payments made on $85.0 million of Heartland's subordinated debentures that reset quarterly on a specified reset date. At inception, Heartland asserted that the underlying principal balance would remain outstanding throughout the hedge transaction, making it probable that sufficient LIBOR-based interest payments would exist through the maturity date of the swaps. During the first quarter of 2015, Heartland entered into two additional forward starting interest rate swaps. The first forward starting interest rate swap transaction relates to Heartland's $20.0 million Statutory Trust VI, which converted from a fixed interest rate subordinated debenture to a variable interest rate subordinated debenture effective on June 15, 2017. The forward starting swap transaction expires on June 15, 2024. The second forward starting interest rate swap was effective on March 1, 2017, and replaced the interest rate swap related to Heartland Statutory Trust VII upon its expiration on March 1, 2017. Heartland entered into an interest rate swap transaction on May 10, 2016, to effectively convert $40.0 million of amortizing term debt from variable rate debt to fixed rate debt. For accounting purposes, this swap is designated as a cash flow hedge of the changes in LIBOR, the benchmark interest rate being hedged, associated with the interest payments on the amortizing term debt that resets monthly on a specified reset date. The swap expires on May 10, 2021.

No interest payments were required on this swap until June 1, 2017. The table below identifies the gains and losses recognized on Heartland's derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges for the three- and six- month periods ended June 30, 2017 , and June 30, 2016 , in thousands: Effective Portion Ineffective Portion Recognized in OCI Reclassified from AOCI into Income Recognized in Income on Derivatives Amount of Gain (Loss) Category Amount of Gain (Loss) Category Amount of Gain (Loss) Three Months Ended June 30, 2017 Interest rate swaps $ (509 ) Interest expense $ (300 ) Other income $ — Six Months Ended June 30, 2017 Interest rate swaps $ 24 Interest expense $ (697 ) Other income $ — Three Months Ended June 30, 2016 Interest rate swaps $ (1,579 ) Interest expense $ (465 ) Other income $ — Six Months Ended June 30, 2016 Interest rate swaps $ (4,496 ) Interest expense $ (971 ) Other income $ — Fair Value Hedges Heartland uses interest rate swaps to convert certain long term fixed rate loans to floating rates to hedge interest rate risk exposure. Heartland uses hedge accounting in accordance with ASC 815, with the unrealized gains and losses, representing the change in fair value of the derivative and the change in fair value of the risk being hedged on the related loan, being recorded in the consolidated statements of income. The ineffective portions of the unrealized gains or losses, if any, are recorded in interest income and interest expense in the consolidated statements of income. Heartland uses statistical regression to assess hedge effectiveness, both at the inception of the hedge as well as on a continual basis. The regression analysis involves regressing the periodic change in the fair value of the hedging instrument against the periodic changes in the fair value of the asset being hedged due to changes in the hedge risk. Heartland was required to pledge $4.3 million and $5.0 million of cash as collateral for these fair value hedges at June 30, 2017 , and December 31, 2016, respectively. The table below identifies the notional amount, fair value and balance sheet category of Heartland's fair value hedges at June 30, 2017 , and December 31, 2016 , in thousands: Notional Amount Fair Value Balance Sheet Category June 30, 2017 Fair value hedges $ 35,973 $ (1,474 ) Other liabilities December 31, 2016 Fair value hedges $ 40,807 $ (1,626 ) Other liabilities The table below identifies the gains and losses recognized on Heartland's fair value hedges for the three- and six- month periods ended June 30, 2017 , and June 30, 2016 , in thousands: Amount of Gain (Loss) Income Statement Category Three Months Ended June 30, 2017 Fair value hedges $ (42 ) Interest income Six Months Ended June 30, 2017 Fair value hedges $ 152 Interest income Three Months Ended June 30, 2016 Fair value hedges $ (888 ) Interest income Six Months Ended June 30, 2016 Fair value hedges $ (2,110 ) Interest income Embedded Derivatives Heartland has fixed rate loans with embedded derivatives. The loans contain terms that affect the cash flows or value of the loan similar to a derivative instrument, and therefore are considered to contain an embedded derivative. The embedded derivatives are bifurcated from the loans because the terms of the derivative instrument are not clearly and closely related to the loans. The embedded derivatives are recorded at fair value on the consolidated balance sheets as a part of other assets, and changes in the fair value are a component of noninterest income. The table below identifies the notional amount, fair value and balance sheet category of Heartland's embedded derivatives at June 30, 2017 , and December 31, 2016 , in thousands: Notional Amount Fair Value Balance Sheet Category June 30, 2017 Embedded derivatives $ 14,294 $ 989 Other assets December 31, 2016 Embedded derivatives $ 14,549 $ 1,104 Other assets The table below identifies the gains and losses recognized on Heartland's embedded derivatives for the three- and six- month periods ended June 30, 2017 , and June 30, 2016 , in thousands: Amount of Gain (Loss) Income Statement Category Three Months Ended June 30, 2017 Embedded derivatives $ (2 ) Other noninterest income Six Months Ended June 30, 2017 Embedded derivatives $ 115 Other noninterest income Three Months Ended June 30, 2016 Embedded derivatives $ 144 Other noninterest income Six Months Ended June 30, 2016 Embedded derivatives $ 416 Other noninterest income In conjunction with the CIC Bancshares, Inc. transaction on February 5, 2016, Heartland assumed convertible subordinated debt. The subordinated debt has a face value of $2.0 million , and the embedded conversion option allows the holder to convert the debt to Heartland common equity in any increment and at the discretion of the holder. The conversion option is bifurcated from the debt because the terms of the conversion option are not clearly and closely related to the terms of the debt. On February 5, 2016, the total number of shares to be issued upon conversion was 73,394 . At June 30, 2017 , and December 31, 2016 , the remaining shares to be issued upon conversion totaled 14,353 and 20,481 , respectively. The embedded conversion option is reported at fair value on the consolidated balance sheets using the Black-Scholes model. The following table identifies, in thousands, the notional amount, fair value, balance sheet category and income statement category for the change in fair value of the embedded conversion option as of June 30, 2017 , and December 31, 2016 : Notional Amount Fair Value Balance Sheet Category June 30, 2017 Embedded conversion option $ 391 $ (285 ) Other liabilities December 31, 2016 Embedded conversion option $ 558 $ (422 ) Other liabilities The table below identifies the gains and losses recognized on Heartland's embedded conversion options for the three- and six- month periods ended June 30, 2017 , and June 30, 2016 , in thousands: Amount of Gain (Loss) Income Statement Category Three Months Ended June 30, 2017 Embedded conversion option $ 40 Other noninterest income Six Months Ended June 30, 2017 Embedded conversion option $ 137 Other noninterest income Three Months Ended June 30, 2016 Embedded conversion option $ (197 ) Other noninterest income Six Months Ended June 30, 2016 Embedded conversion option $ (297 ) Other noninterest income Back-to-Back Loan Swaps Heartland has interest rate swap loan relationships with customers to meet their financing needs. Upon entering into these loan swaps, Heartland enters into offsetting positions with counterparties in order to minimize interest rate risk. These back-to-back loan swaps qualify as free standing financial derivatives with the fair values reported in other assets and other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. Heartland was required to post $1.8 million at both June 30, 2017 , and December 31, 2016 , respectively, as collateral related to these back-to-back swaps. Heartland's counterparties were required to pledge $768,000 at both June 30, 2017 , and December 31, 2016 . Any gains and losses on these back-to-back swaps are recorded in noninterest income on the consolidated statements of income, and for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and June 30, 2016 , no gain or loss was recognized. The table below identifies the balance sheet category and fair values of Heartland's derivative instruments designated as loan swaps at June 30, 2017 , and December 31, 2016 , in thousands: Notional Amount Fair Value Balance Sheet Category Weighted Average Receive Rate Weighted Average Pay Rate June 30, 2017 Customer interest rate swaps $ 85,391 $ 1,822 Other assets 4.72 % 3.90 % Customer interest rate swaps 85,391 (1,822 ) Other liabilities 3.90 % 4.72 % December 31, 2016 Customer interest rate swaps $ 69,594 $ 1,588 Other assets 4.66 % 3.47 % Customer interest rate swaps 69,594 (1,588 ) Other liabilities 3.47 % 4.66 % Other Free Standing Derivatives Heartland has entered into interest rate lock commitments to originate residential mortgage loans held for sale and forward commitments to sell residential mortgage loans and mortgage backed securities that are considered derivative instruments. Heartland enters into forward commitments for the future delivery of residential mortgage loans when interest rate lock commitments are entered into in order to economically hedge the effect of future changes in interest rates on the commitments to fund the loans as well as on residential mortgage loans available for sale. The fair value of these commitments is recorded on the consolidated balance sheets, with the changes in fair value recorded in the consolidated statements of income as a component of gains on sale of loans held for sale. These derivative contracts are designated as free standing derivative contracts and are not designated against specific assets and liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets or forecasted transactions and therefore do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment. Heartland was required to pledge collateral of $838,000 at June 30, 2017 , and $0 at December 31, 2016 . Heartland's counterparties were required to pledge $0 and $2.9 million at June 30, 2017 , and December 31, 2016 , respectively, as collateral for these forward commitments. Heartland acquired undesignated interest rate swaps in 2015. These swaps were entered into primarily for the benefit of customers seeking to manage their interest rate risk and are not designated against specific assets or liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet or forecasted transactions and therefore do not qualify for hedge accounting in accordance with ASC 815. These swaps are carried at fair value on the consolidated balance sheets as a component of other liabilities, with changes in the fair value recorded as a component of other noninterest income.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
Fair Value	FAIR VALUE Heartland utilizes fair value measurements to record fair value adjustments to certain assets and liabilities and to determine fair value disclosures. Securities available for sale, trading securities and derivatives are recorded in the consolidated balance sheets at fair value on a recurring basis. Additionally, from time to time, Heartland may be required to record at fair value other assets on a nonrecurring basis such as loans held for sale, loans held to maturity and certain other assets including, but not limited to, mortgage servicing rights, commercial servicing rights and other real estate owned. These nonrecurring fair value adjustments typically involve application of the lower of cost or fair value accounting or write-downs of individual assets. Fair Value Hierarchy Under ASC 820, assets and liabilities are grouped at fair value in three levels, based on the markets in which the assets and liabilities are traded and the reliability of the assumptions used to determine fair value. These levels are: Level 1 — Valuation is based upon quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets. Level 2 — Valuation is based upon quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-based valuation techniques for all significant assumptions are observable in the market. Level 3 — Valuation is generated from model-based techniques that use at least one significant assumption not observable in the market. These unobservable assumptions reflect estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Valuation techniques include use of option pricing models, discounted cash flow models and similar techniques. The following is a description of valuation methodologies used for assets and liabilities recorded at fair value on a recurring or non-recurring basis. Assets Securities Available for Sale and Held to Maturity Securities available for sale are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Securities held to maturity are generally recorded at cost and are recorded at fair value only to the extent a decline in fair value is determined to be other-than-temporary. Fair value measurement is based upon quoted prices, if available. If quoted prices are not available, fair values are measured using independent pricing models or other model-based valuation techniques such as the present value of future cash flows, adjusted for the security's credit rating, prepayment assumptions and other factors such as credit loss assumptions. Level 1 securities include those traded on an active exchange, such as the New York Stock Exchange, as well as U.S. Treasury securities. Level 2 securities include U.S. government and agency securities, mortgage-backed securities and private collateralized mortgage obligations, municipal bonds and corporate debt securities. Level 3 securities consist primarily of Z-TRANCHE mortgage-backed securities and corporate debt securities. On a quarterly basis, a secondary independent pricing service is used for a sample of securities to validate the pricing from Heartland's primary pricing service. Loans Held for Sale Loans held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or fair value on an aggregate basis. The fair value of loans held for sale is based on what secondary markets are currently offering for portfolios with similar characteristics. As such, Heartland classifies loans held for sale subjected to nonrecurring fair value adjustments as Level 2. Loans Held to Maturity Heartland does not record loans held to maturity at fair value on a recurring basis. However, from time to time, a loan is considered impaired and an allowance for loan losses is established. Loans for which it is probable that payment of interest and principal will not be made in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan agreement are considered impaired. Once a loan is identified as individually impaired, management measures impairment in accordance with ASC 310. The fair value of impaired loans is measured using one of the following impairment methods: 1) the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest rate or 2) the observable market price of the loan or 3) the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. In accordance with ASC 820, impaired loans measured at fair value are classified as nonrecurring Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. Premises, Furniture and Equipment Held for Sale Heartland values premises, furniture and equipment held for sale based on third-party appraisals less estimated disposal costs. Heartland considers third party appraisals, as well as independent fair value assessments from Realtors or persons involved in selling bank premises, furniture and equipment, in determining the fair value of particular properties. Accordingly, the valuation of premises, furniture and equipment held for sale is subject to significant external and internal judgment. Heartland periodically reviews premises, furniture and equipment held for sale to determine if the fair value of the property, less disposal costs, has declined below its recorded book value and records any adjustments accordingly. Premises, furniture and equipment held for sale are classified as nonrecurring Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. Mortgage Servicing Rights Mortgage servicing rights assets represent the value associated with servicing residential real estate loans that have been sold to outside investors with servicing retained. Heartland uses the amortization method (i.e., the lower of amortized cost or estimated fair value measured on a nonrecurring basis), not fair value measurement accounting, to determine the carrying value of its mortgage servicing rights. The fair value for servicing assets is determined through discounted cash flow analysis, which utilizes discount rates, prepayment speeds and delinquency rate assumptions as inputs, or market indications. All of the assumptions in the discounted cash flow analysis require a significant degree of management estimation and judgment. Mortgage servicing rights are subject to impairment testing. The carrying values of these rights are reviewed quarterly for impairment based upon the calculation of fair value as performed by an outside third party. For purposes of measuring impairment, the rights are stratified into certain risk characteristics including note type and note term. If the valuation model reflects a fair value less than the carrying value, mortgage servicing rights are adjusted to fair value through a valuation allowance. Heartland classifies mortgage servicing rights as nonrecurring with Level 3 measurement inputs. Commercial Servicing Rights Commercial servicing rights assets represent the value associated with servicing commercial loans guaranteed by the Small Business Administration and the United States Department of Agriculture that have been sold with servicing retained by Heartland. Heartland uses the amortization method (i.e., the lower of amortized cost or estimated fair value measured on a nonrecurring basis), not fair value measurement accounting, to determine the carrying value of its commercial servicing rights. The fair value for servicing assets is determined through market prices for comparable servicing contracts, when available, or through a valuation model that calculates the present value of estimated future net servicing income. Inputs utilized include discount rates, prepayment speeds and delinquency rate assumptions as inputs. All of these assumptions require a significant degree of management estimation and judgment. Commercial servicing rights are subject to impairment testing, and the carrying values of these rights are reviewed quarterly for impairment based upon the calculation of fair value as performed by an outside third party. If the valuation model reflects a fair value less than the carrying value, commercial servicing rights are adjusted to fair value through a valuation allowance. Heartland classifies commercial servicing rights as nonrecurring with Level 3 measurement inputs. Derivative Financial Instruments Heartland's current interest rate risk strategy includes interest rate swaps. The valuation of these instruments is determined using widely accepted valuation techniques including discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each derivative. This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity, and uses observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves and implied volatilities. To comply with the provisions of ASC 820, Heartland incorporates credit valuation adjustments to appropriately reflect both its own nonperformance risk and the respective counterparty's nonperformance risk in the fair value measurements. In adjusting the fair value of its derivative contracts for the effect of nonperformance risk, Heartland has considered the impact of netting any applicable credit enhancements, such as collateral postings, thresholds, mutual puts, and guarantees. Although Heartland has determined that the majority of the inputs used to value its derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments associated with its derivatives utilize Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads to evaluate the likelihood of default by itself and its counterparties. However, as of June 30, 2017 , and December 31, 2016 , Heartland has assessed the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments on the overall valuation of its derivative positions and has determined that the credit valuation adjustments are not significant to the overall valuation of its derivatives. As a result, Heartland has determined that its derivative valuations in their entirety are classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. Interest rate lock commitments Heartland uses an internal valuation model that relies on internally developed inputs to estimate the fair value of its interest rate lock commitments which is based on unobservable inputs that reflect management's assumptions and specific information about each borrower. Interest rate lock commitments are classified in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. Forward commitments The fair value of forward commitments are estimated using an internal valuation model, which includes current trade pricing for similar financial instruments in active markets that Heartland has the ability to access and are classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. Other Real Estate Owned Other real estate owned ("OREO") represents property acquired through foreclosures and settlements of loans. Property acquired is carried at the fair value of the property at the time of acquisition (representing the property's cost basis), plus any acquisition costs, or the estimated fair value of the property, less disposal costs. Heartland considers third party appraisals, as well as independent fair value assessments from realtors or persons involved in selling OREO, in determining the fair value of particular properties. Accordingly, the valuation of OREO is subject to significant external and internal judgment. Heartland periodically reviews OREO to determine if the fair value of the property, less disposal costs, has declined below its recorded book value and records any adjustments accordingly. OREO is classified as nonrecurring Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. The table below presents Heartland's assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2017 , and December 31, 2016 , in thousands, aggregated by the level in the fair value hierarchy within which those measurements fall: Total Fair Value Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 June 30, 2017 Assets Securities available for sale U.S. government corporations and agencies $ 5,471 $ 3,508 $ 1,963 $ — Mortgage-backed securities 1,262,528 — 1,262,528 — Obligations of states and political subdivisions 498,742 — 498,742 — Corporate debt securities 7,186 — 7,186 — Equity securities 15,514 — 15,514 — Derivative financial instruments (1) 3,364 — 3,364 — Interest rate lock commitments 3,011 — — 3,011 Forward commitments 323 — 323 — Total assets at fair value $ 1,796,139 $ 3,508 $ 1,789,620 $ 3,011 Liabilities Derivative financial instruments (2) $ 6,834 $ — $ 6,834 $ — Forward commitments 418 — 418 — Total liabilities at fair value $ 7,252 $ — $ 7,252 $ — December 31, 2016 Assets Securities available for sale U.S. government corporations and agencies $ 4,700 $ 517 $ 4,183 $ — Mortgage-backed securities 1,290,500 — 1,288,276 2,224 Obligations of states and political subdivisions 536,144 — 536,144 — Equity securities 14,520 — 14,520 — Derivative financial instruments (1) 3,222 — 3,222 — Interest rate lock commitments 2,790 — — 2,790 Forward commitments 2,546 — 2,546 — Total assets at fair value $ 1,854,422 $ 517 $ 1,848,891 $ 5,014 Liabilities Derivative financial instruments (2) $ 7,027 $ — $ 7,027 $ — Forward commitments 266 — 266 — Total liabilities at fair value $ 7,293 $ — $ 7,293 $ — (1) Includes cash flow hedges, embedded derivatives and back-to-back loan swaps (2) Includes cash flow hedges, fair value hedges, back-to-back loan swaps, embedded conversion options and free standing derivative instruments The tables below present Heartland's assets that are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis, in thousands: Fair Value Measurements at June 30, 2017 Total Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1) Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2) Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3) Year-to- Date (Gains) Losses Collateral dependent impaired loans: Commercial $ 3,695 $ — $ — $ 3,695 $ 78 Commercial real estate 868 — — 868 309 Agricultural and agricultural real estate 1,095 — — 1,095 — Residential real estate 1,664 — — 1,664 — Consumer 1,169 — — 1,169 — Total collateral dependent impaired loans $ 8,491 $ — $ — $ 8,491 $ 387 Other real estate owned $ 9,269 $ — $ — $ 9,269 $ 392 Premises, furniture and equipment held for sale $ 580 $ — $ — $ 580 $ 112 Commercial servicing rights $ 322 $ — $ — $ 322 $ (24 ) Fair Value Measurements at December 31, 2016 Total Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1) Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2) Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3) Year-to- Collateral dependent impaired loans: Commercial $ 1,683 $ — $ — $ 1,683 $ 41 Commercial real estate 3,026 — — 3,026 527 Agricultural and agricultural real estate 1,955 — — 1,955 — Residential real estate 3,565 — — 3,565 85 Consumer 1,193 — — 1,193 — Total collateral dependent impaired loans $ 11,422 $ — $ — — $ 11,422 $ 653 Other real estate owned $ 9,744 $ — $ — $ 9,744 $ 1,341 Premises, furniture and equipment held for sale $ 414 $ — $ — $ 414 $ 35 Commercial servicing rights $ 326 $ — $ — $ 326 $ 33 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 6/30/17 Valuation Technique Unobservable Input Range (Weighted Average) Z-TRANCHE Securities $ — Discounted cash flows Pretax discount rate — Actual defaults — Actual deferrals — Interest rate lock commitments 3,011 Discounted cash flows Closing ratio 0-99% (88%) (1) Premises, furniture and equipment held for sale 580 Modified appraised value Third party appraisal (2) Appraisal discount 0-8% (4) Commercial servicing rights 322 Discounted cash flows Third party valuation (3) Other real estate owned 9,269 Modified appraised value Third party appraisal (2) Appraisal discount 0-10% Collateral dependent impaired loans: Commercial 3,695 Modified appraised value Third party appraisal (2) Appraisal discount 0-15% (4) Commercial real estate 868 Modified appraised value Third party appraisal (2) Appraisal discount 0-15% (4) Agricultural and agricultural real estate 1,095 Modified appraised value Third party appraisal (2) Appraisal discount 0-15% (4) Residential real estate 1,664 Modified appraised value Third party appraisal (2) Appraisal discount 0-10% (4) Consumer 1,169 Modified appraised value Third party valuation (2) Valuation discount 0-18% (4) (1) 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. (2) Third party appraisals are obtained and updated at least annually to establish the value of the underlying asset, but the disclosure of the unobservable inputs used by the appraisers would not be meaningful because the range will vary widely from appraisal to appraisal. (3) The significant unobservable input used in the fair value measurement are the value indices, which are weighted-average spreads to LIBOR based on maturity groups. (4) Discounts applied to the appraised values primarily include estimated sales costs, but also consider the age of the appraisal, changes in local market conditions and changes in the current condition of the collateral.

The changes in fair value of the Z-TRANCHE securities, Level 3 assets that are measured on a recurring basis, are summarized in the following table, in thousands: For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2017 For the Year Ended December 31, 2016 Balance at January 1, $ 2,224 $ 2,039 Total gains (losses): Included in earnings 2,810 — Included in other comprehensive income (2,166 ) 185 Purchases, sales and settlements: Purchases — — Sales (2,868 ) — Settlements — — Balance at period end $ — $ 2,224 The changes in fair value of the interest rate lock commitments, which are Level 3 financial instruments measured on a recurring basis, are summarized in the following table, in thousands: For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2017 For the Year Ended December 31, 2016 Balance at January 1, $ 2,790 $ 3,168 Total gains (losses) included in earnings 658 (1,564 ) Issuances 726 5,373 Settlements (1,163 ) (4,187 ) Balance at period end $ 3,011 $ 2,790 Gains included in gains (losses) on sale of loans held for sale attributable to interest rate lock commitments held at June 30, 2017 , and December 31, 2016 , were $3.0 million and $2.8 million , respectively. The tables below summarize the estimated fair value of Heartland's financial instruments as defined by ASC 825 as of June 30, 2017 , and December 31, 2016 , in thousands. The carrying amounts in the following tables are recorded in the consolidated balance sheets under the indicated captions. In accordance with ASC 825, the assets and liabilities that are not financial instruments are not included in the disclosure, such as the value of the mortgage servicing rights, premises, furniture and equipment, premises, furniture and equipment held for sale, goodwill and other intangibles and other liabilities. Heartland does not believe that the estimated information presented herein is representative of the earnings power or value of Heartland. 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.

Time Deposits in Other Financial Institutions — The carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments. Securities — For securities either held to maturity, available for sale or trading, fair value equals quoted market price if available. If a quoted market price is not available, fair value is estimated using quoted market prices for similar securities. For Level 3 securities, Heartland utilizes independent pricing provided by third party vendors or brokers. Other Investments — Fair value measurement of other investments, which consists primarily of FHLB stock, are based on their redeemable value, which is at cost due to the restrictions placed on their transferability. The market for these securities is restricted to the issuer of the stock and subject to impairment evaluation. Loans — The fair value of loans is estimated using an entrance price concept by discounting the future cash flows using the current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities. The fair value of impaired loans is measured using the fair value of the underlying collateral. The fair value of loans held for sale is estimated using quoted market prices. Interest Rate Lock Commitments — The fair value of interest rate lock commitments is estimated using an internal valuation model, which includes grouping the interest rate lock commitments by interest rate and terms, applying an estimated closing ratio based on historical experience, and then multiplying by quoted investor prices determined to be reasonably applicable to the loan commitment groups based on interest rate, terms, and rate lock expiration dates of the loan commitment group. Forward Commitments — The fair value of these instruments is estimated using an internal valuation model, which includes current trade pricing for similar financial instruments. Derivative Financial Instruments — The fair value of all derivatives is estimated based on the amount that Heartland would pay or would be paid to terminate the contract or agreement, using current rates and prices, and, when appropriate, the current creditworthiness of the counter-party. Deposits — The fair value of demand deposits, savings accounts and certain money market deposits is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. The fair value of fixed maturity certificates of deposit is estimated using the rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities. If the fair value of the fixed maturity certificates of deposit is calculated at less than the carrying amount, the carrying value of these deposits is reported as the fair value. Short-term and Other Borrowings — Rates currently available to Heartland for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities are used to estimate fair value of existing debt. Commitments to Extend Credit, Unused Lines of Credit and Standby Letters of Credit — Based upon management's analysis of the off balance sheet financial instruments, there are no significant unrealized gains or losses associated with these financial instruments based upon review of the fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the present creditworthiness of the counterparties.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]
Segment Reporting	SEGMENT REPORTING Heartland has identified two operating segments for purposes of financial reporting: community and other banking, and retail mortgage banking. These segments were determined based on the products and services provided or the type of customers served and are consistent with the information used by Heartland's key decision makers to make operating decisions and to assess Heartland's performance. The following tables present financial information for Heartland's operating segments for the three- and six- month periods ended June 30, 2017 , and June 30, 2016 , in thousands: Three Months Ended June 30, 2017 2016 Community and Other Banking Retail Mortgage Banking Total Community and Other Banking Retail Mortgage Banking Total Net interest income $ 73,445 $ 1,135 $ 74,580 $ 71,895 $ 1,223 $ 73,118 Provision for loan losses 889 — 889 2,118 — 2,118 Total noninterest income 18,250 7,374 25,624 19,899 11,127 31,026 Total noninterest expense 60,564 8,734 69,298 59,694 11,326 71,020 Income (loss) before taxes $ 30,242 $ (225 ) $ 30,017 $ 29,982 $ 1,024 $ 31,006 Average Loans, for the period $ 5,334,723 $ 42,103 $ 5,376,826 $ 5,507,542 $ 75,336 $ 5,582,878 Segment Assets, at period end $ 8,122,172 $ 82,549 $ 8,204,721 $ 8,082,153 $ 122,248 $ 8,204,401 Six Months Ended June 30, 2017 2016 Community Retail Total Community Retail Total Net interest income $ 145,628 $ 1,980 $ 147,608 $ 143,478 $ 2,347 $ 145,825 Provision for loan losses 4,530 — 4,530 4,185 — 4,185 Total noninterest income 37,284 14,233 51,517 38,436 22,168 60,604 Total noninterest expense 123,776 17,262 141,038 119,433 21,896 141,329 Income (loss) before taxes $ 54,606 $ (1,049 ) $ 53,557 $ 58,296 $ 2,619 $ 60,915 Average Loans, for the period $ 5,334,722 $ 36,549 $ 5,371,271 $ 5,401,867 $ 68,623 $ 5,470,490 Segment Assets, at period end $ 8,122,172 $ 82,549 $ 8,204,721 $ 8,082,153 $ 122,248 $ 8,204,401

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	The interim unaudited consolidated financial statements contained herein should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes to the consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016 , included in the Form 10-K of Heartland Financial USA, Inc. ("Heartland") filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on March 1, 2017 . Foot note disclosures to the interim unaudited consolidated financial statements which would substantially duplicate the disclosure contained in the footnotes to the audited consolidated financial statements have been omitted. The financial information of Heartland included herein has been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial reporting and has been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations for reporting on Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Such information reflects all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments), that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations for the periods presented. The results of the interim period ended June 30, 2017 , are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the year ending December 31, 2017 .
Earnings Per Share	Basic earnings per share is determined using net income available to common stockholders and weighted average common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average common shares and assumed incremental common shares issued.
Stock-Based Compensation	Heartland may grant, through its Nominating and Compensation Committee (the "Compensation Committee"), non-qualified and incentive stock options, stock appreciation rights, stock awards, restricted stock, restricted stock units and cash incentive awards, under its 2012 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the "Plan"). The Plan was originally approved by stockholders in May 2012 and was amended effective March 8, 2016, to increase the number of shares of common stock authorized for issuance and make certain other changes to the Plan. As of June 30, 2017 , 494,046 shares of common stock were available for issuance under future awards that may be granted under the Plan to employees and directors of, and service providers to, Heartland or its subsidiaries. Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 718, "Compensation-Stock Compensation" requires the measurement of the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based upon the fair value of the award on the grant date. The cost of the award is based upon its fair value estimated on the date of grant and recognized in the consolidated statements of income over the vesting period of the award. The fair market value of restricted stock and restricted stock units is based on the fair value of the underlying shares of common stock on the date of grant. The fair value of stock options is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes model. The amount of tax benefit related to the exercise, vesting and forfeiture of equity-based awards reflected as a tax benefit in Heartland's income tax expense was $989,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2017 . Prior to the adoption of ASU 2016-09 on January 1, 2017, $1.1 million of tax benefit related to the exercise, vesting and forfeiture of equity based awards was reflected in additional paid-in-capital during the six months ended June 30, 2016. Restricted Stock Units The Plan permits the Compensation Committee to grant restricted stock units ("RSUs"). In the first quarter of 2017, the Compensation Committee granted time-based RSUs with respect to 55,665 shares of common stock, and in the first quarter of 2016, the Compensation Committee granted time-based RSUs with respect to 72,644 shares of common stock to selected officers and employees. The time-based RSUs represent the right, without payment, to receive shares of Heartland common stock at a specified date in the future. These time-based RSUs vest over three years in equal installments on the first, second and third anniversaries of the grant date. The time-based RSUs will be settled in common stock upon vesting, and will not be entitled to dividends until vested. The time-based RSUs may also vest upon death or disability, upon a change in control or upon a "qualified retirement" (as defined in the RSU agreement). The retiree is required to sign a non-solicitation and non-compete agreement as a condition to vesting. In addition to the time-based RSUs referenced in the preceding paragraph, the Compensation Committee granted performance-based RSUs with respect to 27,570 shares of common stock in the first quarter of 2017, and 35,516 shares of common stock in the first quarter of 2016. These performance-based RSUs are earned based on satisfaction of performance targets for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2017, and December 31, 2016, respectively, and then fully vest two years after the end of the performance period. For the grants awarded in 2017, the portion of the RSUs earned based on performance vests on December 31, 2019, and for the grants awarded in 2016, the portion of the RSUs earned based on performance vests on December 31, 2018, subject to employment on the respective vesting dates. The performance-based RSUs vest to the extent that they are earned upon death or disability, upon a change in control or upon a "qualified retirement." The Compensation Committee also granted three -year performance-based RSUs with respect to 9,032 shares of common stock in the first quarter of 2017, and 11,408 shares of common stock in the first quarter of 2016. These performance-based RSUs will be earned based on satisfaction of performance targets for the three -year performance period ended December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. These performance-based RSUs or a portion thereof may vest in 2020 and 2019, respectively, after measurement of performance in relation to the performance targets. Upon death, disability, or a "qualified retirement," all performance-based RSUs granted in 2016 remain outstanding and are earned based on actual performance at the end of each performance period. All RSUs granted on or after March 8, 2016, become fully vested upon a change in control if (1) they are not assumed by the successor corporation or (2) upon an involuntary termination of the participant's employment within two years after the change in control. The Compensation Committee may grant RSUs under the Plan to directors as part of their compensation, to new management level employees at commencement of employment, and to other employees and service providers as incentives.
Subsequent Events	Heartland has evaluated subsequent events that may require recognition or disclosure through the filing date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q with the SEC. On July 7, 2017, Heartland completed the acquisition of Citywide Banks of Colorado, Inc., parent company of Citywide Banks, based in Denver, Colorado. See Note 2, "Acquisitions," for further details regarding this transaction.
Effect of New Financial Accounting Standards	In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers." The amendment clarifies the principles for recognizing revenue and develops a common revenue standard. The amendment outlines a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. The core principle of the revenue model is that “an entity recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services.” In applying the revenue model to contracts within its scope, an entity should apply the following steps: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer, (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (iii) determine the transaction price, (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. The new guidance does not apply to certain contracts within the scope of other ASC Topics, such as lease contracts, insurance contracts, financing arrangements, financial instruments, guarantees other than product or service warranties and nonmonetary exchanges between entities in the same line of business to facilitate sales to customers. Heartland continues to evaluate noninterest income contracts affected by the new guidance by analyzing contracts and current accounting practices to determine if a change is appropriate. The amendment is largely consistent with existing guidance and current practices. Heartland intends to adopt the accounting standard in 2018, as required, which may require a change in the recognition of certain recurring revenue streams within trust and investment management fees; however, Heartland's preliminary analysis suggests the adoption of these amendments are not expected to have a significant effect on Heartland's results of operations, financial position and liquidity. In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, "Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities." The amendments in ASU 2016-01 to Subtopic 825-10, Financial Instruments, make the following changes: (1) require equity investments to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income; (2) simplify the impairment assessment of equity investments without readily determinable fair values by requiring a qualitative assessment to identify impairment; (3) eliminate the requirement for public entities to disclose the methods and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value that is required to be disclosed for financial instruments measured at amortized cost on the balance sheet; (4) require public business entities to use the exit price notion when measuring the fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes; (5) require an entity to present separately in other comprehensive income the portion of the total change in the fair value of a liability resulting from a change in the instrument-specific credit risk when the entity has elected to measure the liability at fair value in accordance with the fair value option for financial instruments; (6) require separate presentation of financial assets and financial liabilities by measurement category and form of financial asset on the balance sheet or accompanying notes to the financial statements; (7) clarify that the entity should evaluate the need for a valuation allowance on a deferred tax asset related to available for sale securities in combination with the entity's other deferred tax assets. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and for interim periods within those fiscal years. Except for the early application of the amendment noted in item (5) above, early adoption of the amendments in this update is not permitted. Heartland intends to adopt the accounting standard in 2018, as required, and is currently evaluating the potential impact of this guidance on its results of operations, financial position and liquidity. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, "Leases (Topic 842)." Topic 842 requires a lessee to recognize leases on its balance sheet and disclose key information about leasing arrangements. The new standard establishes a right-of-use model (ROU) that requires a lessee to recognize a ROU asset and lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with a term longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as financing or operating, with such classification affecting the categorization of expense recognition in the income statement. The amendment is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years, and will be applied on a modified retrospective basis. Heartland leases certain properties and equipment under operating leases that will result in recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets under this ASU; however the majority of Heartland's properties and equipment are owned and not leased. Heartland intends to adopt the accounting standard in 2019 as required. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, "Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718)." The amendments in this ASU simplify several aspects of the accounting for share-based payments, including income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities and classification on the statement of cash flows. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption was permitted for any interim or annual period prior to the effective date. Heartland adopted this ASU on January 1, 2017, as required, using a prospective transition method. The requirement to report the excess tax benefit or shortfall related to settlements of share-based payment awards in earnings as an increase or decrease to tax expense has been applied to settlements occurring on or after January 1, 2017, and the impact of applying the guidance reduced reported income tax expense by $989,000 . ASU 2016-09 also requires that all income tax related cash flows resulting from share-based payments be reported as an operating activity in the consolidated statements of cash flow. Previously income tax benefits resulting from the settlement of a share-based award were reported as a reduction of operating cash flows and an increase to financing cash flows to the extent that those benefits exceeded the income tax benefits reported in earnings during the period in which the share-based awards vested. Heartland elected to adopt the change in cash flow classification on a retrospective basis, which resulted in a $1.1 million increase to net cash from operating activities and a corresponding decrease to net cash from financing activities in the accompanying consolidated statement of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2016. Heartland has elected to account for forfeitures as they occur. In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, "Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326)." The amendments in this ASU require a financial asset (or a group of financial assets) measured at amortized cost basis to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. The allowance for credit losses is a valuation account that is deducted from the amortized cost basis of the financial asset(s) to present the net carrying value at the amount expected to be collected on the financial asset. The amendments in this ASU indicate that an entity should not use the length of time a security has been in an unrealized loss position to avoid recording a credit loss. In addition, in determining whether a credit loss exists, the amendments in this ASU also remove the requirements to consider the historical and implied volatility of the fair value of a security and recoveries or declines in fair value after the balance sheet date. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Heartland intends to adopt the accounting standard in 2020, as required. Heartland has formed a committee to review the standard, understand the potential impact of this guidance on its results of operations, financial position and liquidity, and oversee the implementation of the standard. In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, "Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230) - Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments." The amendments in this update address eight specific cash flow issues with the objective of reducing the existing diversity in practice. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. If an entity adopts the amendments early in an interim period, any adjustments must be reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes the interim period. An entity that elects early adoption must adopt all of the amendments in the same period. The amendments in this update must be applied using a retrospective transition method to each period presented. Heartland intends to adopt this ASU in 2018, as required, and is currently evaluating the potential impact on its results of operations, financial position, and liquidity. In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, "Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350)." This amendment is to simplify the subsequent measurement of goodwill by eliminating step two from the goodwill impairment test. Instead, an entity will perform only step one of its quantitative goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount, and then recognizing the impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit's fair value; however, the loss recognized cannot exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. An entity will still have the option to perform a qualitative assessment for a reporting unit to determine if the quantitative step one impairment test is necessary. This amendment is effective for annual or interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and should be applied prospectively. Early adoption is permitted, including in an interim period for impairment tests performed after January 1, 2017. Heartland intends to adopt this ASU in the third quarter of 2020, consistent with the annual impairment test as of September 30, 2020, and is currently evaluating the potential impact of this guidance on its results of operations, financial position and liquidity. In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-08, "Receivables - Nonrefundable Fee and Other Costs (Subtopic 310-20)." These amendments shorten the amortization period for certain callable debt securities held at a premium. Specifically, the amendments require the premium to be amortized to the earliest call date. The amendments do not require an accounting change for securities held at a discount. Discounts continue to be amortized to maturity. These amendments are effective for public business entities for fiscal years and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. If any entity early adopts the amendments in an interim period, any adjustments must be reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes the interim period. The amendments must be applied on a modified retrospective basis, with a cumulative-effect adjustment directly to retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption. Heartland intends to adopt this ASU in 2019, as required, and is currently evaluating the potential impact on its results of operations, financial position, and liquidity.
Fair Value Hierarchy	Fair Value Hierarchy Under ASC 820, assets and liabilities are grouped at fair value in three levels, based on the markets in which the assets and liabilities are traded and the reliability of the assumptions used to determine fair value. These levels are: Level 1 — Valuation is based upon quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets. Level 2 — Valuation is based upon quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-based valuation techniques for all significant assumptions are observable in the market. Level 3 — Valuation is generated from model-based techniques that use at least one significant assumption not observable in the market. These unobservable assumptions reflect estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Valuation techniques include use of option pricing models, discounted cash flow models and similar techniques. The following is a description of valuation methodologies used for assets and liabilities recorded at fair value on a recurring or non-recurring basis. Assets Securities Available for Sale and Held to Maturity Securities available for sale are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Securities held to maturity are generally recorded at cost and are recorded at fair value only to the extent a decline in fair value is determined to be other-than-temporary. Fair value measurement is based upon quoted prices, if available. If quoted prices are not available, fair values are measured using independent pricing models or other model-based valuation techniques such as the present value of future cash flows, adjusted for the security's credit rating, prepayment assumptions and other factors such as credit loss assumptions. Level 1 securities include those traded on an active exchange, such as the New York Stock Exchange, as well as U.S. Treasury securities. Level 2 securities include U.S. government and agency securities, mortgage-backed securities and private collateralized mortgage obligations, municipal bonds and corporate debt securities. Level 3 securities consist primarily of Z-TRANCHE mortgage-backed securities and corporate debt securities. On a quarterly basis, a secondary independent pricing service is used for a sample of securities to validate the pricing from Heartland's primary pricing service. Loans Held for Sale Loans held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or fair value on an aggregate basis. The fair value of loans held for sale is based on what secondary markets are currently offering for portfolios with similar characteristics. As such, Heartland classifies loans held for sale subjected to nonrecurring fair value adjustments as Level 2. Loans Held to Maturity Heartland does not record loans held to maturity at fair value on a recurring basis. However, from time to time, a loan is considered impaired and an allowance for loan losses is established. Loans for which it is probable that payment of interest and principal will not be made in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan agreement are considered impaired. Once a loan is identified as individually impaired, management measures impairment in accordance with ASC 310. The fair value of impaired loans is measured using one of the following impairment methods: 1) the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest rate or 2) the observable market price of the loan or 3) the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. In accordance with ASC 820, impaired loans measured at fair value are classified as nonrecurring Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. Premises, Furniture and Equipment Held for Sale Heartland values premises, furniture and equipment held for sale based on third-party appraisals less estimated disposal costs. Heartland considers third party appraisals, as well as independent fair value assessments from Realtors or persons involved in selling bank premises, furniture and equipment, in determining the fair value of particular properties. Accordingly, the valuation of premises, furniture and equipment held for sale is subject to significant external and internal judgment. Heartland periodically reviews premises, furniture and equipment held for sale to determine if the fair value of the property, less disposal costs, has declined below its recorded book value and records any adjustments accordingly. Premises, furniture and equipment held for sale are classified as nonrecurring Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. Mortgage Servicing Rights Mortgage servicing rights assets represent the value associated with servicing residential real estate loans that have been sold to outside investors with servicing retained. Heartland uses the amortization method (i.e., the lower of amortized cost or estimated fair value measured on a nonrecurring basis), not fair value measurement accounting, to determine the carrying value of its mortgage servicing rights. The fair value for servicing assets is determined through discounted cash flow analysis, which utilizes discount rates, prepayment speeds and delinquency rate assumptions as inputs, or market indications. All of the assumptions in the discounted cash flow analysis require a significant degree of management estimation and judgment. Mortgage servicing rights are subject to impairment testing. The carrying values of these rights are reviewed quarterly for impairment based upon the calculation of fair value as performed by an outside third party. For purposes of measuring impairment, the rights are stratified into certain risk characteristics including note type and note term. If the valuation model reflects a fair value less than the carrying value, mortgage servicing rights are adjusted to fair value through a valuation allowance. Heartland classifies mortgage servicing rights as nonrecurring with Level 3 measurement inputs. Commercial Servicing Rights Commercial servicing rights assets represent the value associated with servicing commercial loans guaranteed by the Small Business Administration and the United States Department of Agriculture that have been sold with servicing retained by Heartland. Heartland uses the amortization method (i.e., the lower of amortized cost or estimated fair value measured on a nonrecurring basis), not fair value measurement accounting, to determine the carrying value of its commercial servicing rights. The fair value for servicing assets is determined through market prices for comparable servicing contracts, when available, or through a valuation model that calculates the present value of estimated future net servicing income. Inputs utilized include discount rates, prepayment speeds and delinquency rate assumptions as inputs. All of these assumptions require a significant degree of management estimation and judgment. Commercial servicing rights are subject to impairment testing, and the carrying values of these rights are reviewed quarterly for impairment based upon the calculation of fair value as performed by an outside third party. If the valuation model reflects a fair value less than the carrying value, commercial servicing rights are adjusted to fair value through a valuation allowance. Heartland classifies commercial servicing rights as nonrecurring with Level 3 measurement inputs. Derivative Financial Instruments Heartland's current interest rate risk strategy includes interest rate swaps. The valuation of these instruments is determined using widely accepted valuation techniques including discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each derivative. This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity, and uses observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves and implied volatilities. To comply with the provisions of ASC 820, Heartland incorporates credit valuation adjustments to appropriately reflect both its own nonperformance risk and the respective counterparty's nonperformance risk in the fair value measurements. In adjusting the fair value of its derivative contracts for the effect of nonperformance risk, Heartland has considered the impact of netting any applicable credit enhancements, such as collateral postings, thresholds, mutual puts, and guarantees. Although Heartland has determined that the majority of the inputs used to value its derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments associated with its derivatives utilize Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads to evaluate the likelihood of default by itself and its counterparties. However, as of June 30, 2017 , and December 31, 2016 , Heartland has assessed the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments on the overall valuation of its derivative positions and has determined that the credit valuation adjustments are not significant to the overall valuation of its derivatives. As a result, Heartland has determined that its derivative valuations in their entirety are classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. Interest rate lock commitments Heartland uses an internal valuation model that relies on internally developed inputs to estimate the fair value of its interest rate lock commitments which is based on unobservable inputs that reflect management's assumptions and specific information about each borrower. Interest rate lock commitments are classified in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. Forward commitments The fair value of forward commitments are estimated using an internal valuation model, which includes current trade pricing for similar financial instruments in active markets that Heartland has the ability to access and are classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. Other Real Estate Owned Other real estate owned ("OREO") represents property acquired through foreclosures and settlements of loans. Property acquired is carried at the fair value of the property at the time of acquisition (representing the property's cost basis), plus any acquisition costs, or the estimated fair value of the property, less disposal costs. Heartland considers third party appraisals, as well as independent fair value assessments from realtors or persons involved in selling OREO, in determining the fair value of particular properties. Accordingly, the valuation of OREO is subject to significant external and internal judgment. Heartland periodically reviews OREO to determine if the fair value of the property, less disposal costs, has declined below its recorded book value and records any adjustments accordingly. OREO is classified as nonrecurring Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

Fair Value Inputs, Assets, 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 6/30/17 Valuation Technique Unobservable Input Range (Weighted Average) Z-TRANCHE Securities $ — Discounted cash flows Pretax discount rate — Actual defaults — Actual deferrals — Interest rate lock commitments 3,011 Discounted cash flows Closing ratio 0-99% (88%) (1) Premises, furniture and equipment held for sale 580 Modified appraised value Third party appraisal (2) Appraisal discount 0-8% (4) Commercial servicing rights 322 Discounted cash flows Third party valuation (3) Other real estate owned 9,269 Modified appraised value Third party appraisal (2) Appraisal discount 0-10% Collateral dependent impaired loans: Commercial 3,695 Modified appraised value Third party appraisal (2) Appraisal discount 0-15% (4) Commercial real estate 868 Modified appraised value Third party appraisal (2) Appraisal discount 0-15% (4) Agricultural and agricultural real estate 1,095 Modified appraised value Third party appraisal (2) Appraisal discount 0-15% (4) Residential real estate 1,664 Modified appraised value Third party appraisal (2) Appraisal discount 0-10% (4) Consumer 1,169 Modified appraised value Third party valuation (2) Valuation discount 0-18% (4) (1) 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. (2) Third party appraisals are obtained and updated at least annually to establish the value of the underlying asset, but the disclosure of the unobservable inputs used by the appraisers would not be meaningful because the range will vary widely from appraisal to appraisal. (3) The significant unobservable input used in the fair value measurement are the value indices, which are weighted-average spreads to LIBOR based on maturity groups. (4) Discounts applied to the appraised values primarily include estimated sales costs, but also consider the age of the appraisal, changes in local market conditions and changes in the current condition of the collateral.

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.
