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 is consistent with the information used by Heartland's key decision makers to make operating decisions and to assess Heartland's performance.

The following table presents financial information from Heartland's operating segments for March 31, 2013 and 2012, in thousands.
