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 3/31/16		Valuation Technique	Unobservable Input	Range (Weighted Average)
Z-TRANCHE Securities	$	1,774	Discounted cash flows	Pretax discount rate	7.50 - 9.50%
				Actual defaults	22.07 - 34.19% (31.03%)
				Actual deferrals	10.67 - 20.53% (13.21%)
Corporate debt securities	330		Discounted cash flows	Bank analysis	⁽¹⁾
Interest rate lock commitments	6,956		Discounted cash flows	Closing ratio	⁽²⁾
Premises, furniture and equipment held for sale	3,889		Modified appraised value	Third party appraisal	⁽³⁾
				Appraisal discount	⁽³⁾
Other real estate owned	11,338		Modified appraised value	Third party appraisal	⁽³⁾
				Appraisal discount	⁽³⁾
Collateral dependent impaired loans:
Commercial	1,344		Modified appraised value	Third party appraisal	⁽³⁾

Commercial real estate	2,609		Modified appraised value	Third party appraisal	⁽³⁾

Residential real estate	3,168		Modified appraised value	Third party appraisal	⁽³⁾

Consumer	2,010		Modified appraised value	Third party valuation	⁽³⁾
				Valuation discount	⁽³⁾

(1) The unobservable input is the bank analysis market using Moody's Global Bank Rating Methodology. The analysis takes into consideration various performance metrics as well as yield on the debt securities and credit risk analysis.
(2) The significant unobservable input used in the fair value measurement is the closing ratio, which represents the percentage of loans currently in a lock position which management estimates will ultimately close. The closing ratio calculation takes into consideration historical data and loan-level data; therefore providing a range would not be meaningful. The weighted average closing ratio at March 31, 2016, was 88%.
(3) Third party appraisals are obtained as to the value of the underlying asset, but disclosure of this information would not provide meaningful information, as the range will vary widely from loan to loan. Types of discounts considered included age of the appraisal, local market conditions, current condition of the property, and estimated sales costs. These discounts will also vary from loan to loan, thus providing range would not be meaningful.

Fair Value, by Balance Sheet Grouping

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