IBERIABANK CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

NOTE 1 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION
General
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all information or footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal and recurring items, necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements have been made. These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and footnote disclosures for IBERIABANK Corporation (the “Company”) previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014. Operating results for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 2015.
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, IBERIABANK, Lenders Title Company (“LTC”), IBERIA Capital Partners, LLC (“ICP”), 1887 Leasing, LLC, IBERIA Asset Management, Inc. (“IAM”), and IBERIA CDE, LLC (“CDE”). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The Company offers commercial and retail banking products and services to customers throughout locations in seven states through IBERIABANK. The Company also operates mortgage production offices in 10 states through IBERIABANK Mortgage Company (“IMC”), a subsidiary of IBERIABANK, and offers a full line of title insurance and closing services throughout Arkansas and Louisiana through LTC and its subsidiaries. ICP provides equity research, institutional sales and trading, and corporate finance services. 1887 Leasing, LLC owns an aircraft used by management of the Company. IAM provides wealth management and trust services for commercial and private banking clients. CDE is engaged in the purchase of tax credits.
Reclassifications
Certain amounts reported in prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications did not have a material effect on previously reported consolidated net income, shareholders’ equity or cash flows.
Louisiana Business Corporation Act
Effective January 1, 2015, companies incorporated under Louisiana law became subject to the Louisiana Business Corporation Act (which replaced the Louisiana Business Corporation Law). Provisions of the Louisiana Business Corporation Act eliminate the concept of treasury stock and provide that shares reacquired by a company are to be treated as authorized but unissued shares. As a result of this change in law, shares previously classified as treasury stock are presented as a reduction to issued shares of common stock in the consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2015, reducing the stated value of common stock and additional paid-in capital.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Material estimates that are susceptible to significant change in the near term are the allowance for credit losses, accounting for loans covered by loss sharing arrangements with the FDIC and the related loss share receivables, and determination of the fair value of net assets acquired in acquisitions.
Concentrations of Credit Risk
Most of the Company’s business activity is with customers located within the states of Louisiana, Florida, Arkansas, Alabama, Texas, Tennessee and Georgia. The Company’s lending activity is concentrated in its market areas in those states. The Company has emphasized originations of commercial loans and private banking loans, defined as loans to larger consumer clients. Repayments on loans are expected to come from cash flows of the borrower and/or guarantor. Losses on secured loans are limited by the value of the collateral upon default of the borrowers. The Company does not have any significant concentrations to any one industry or customer.

NOTE 2 – RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
ASU No. 2014-01
In January 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-01, “Investments – Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323): Accounting for Investments in Qualified Affordable Housing Projects (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force)”. The ASU allows for use of the proportional amortization method for investments in qualified affordable housing projects if certain conditions are met. Under the proportional amortization method, the initial cost of the investment is amortized in proportion to the tax credits and other tax benefits received and the net investment performance is recognized in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income as a component of income tax expense. ASU 2014-01 provides for a practical expedient, which allows for amortization of the investment in proportion to only the tax credits if it produces a measurement that is substantially similar to the measurement that would result from using both tax credits and other tax benefits. ASU 2014-01 was effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2014. The Company adopted this guidance effective January 1, 2015, utilizing the practical expedient method. Amortization expense related to qualified affordable housing investments has been presented net of the income tax credits in income tax expense in the unaudited consolidated statements of comprehensive income. The standard was required to be applied retrospectively, therefore, prior periods have been restated in accordance with GAAP. The impact of the adoption of ASU 2014-01 was not material to the consolidated financial statements in current or prior periods.
ASU No. 2014-04
In January 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-04, Receivables-Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors: Reclassification of Residential Real Estate Collateralized Consumer Mortgage Loans Upon Foreclosure, in order to clarify when a creditor should reclassify mortgage loans collateralized by residential real estate from their loan portfolio to other real estate owned (“OREO”) upon foreclosure. ASU No. 2014-04 clarifies that an in-substance repossession or foreclosure has occurred when either the creditor obtains legal title to the property or the borrower conveys all interest in the property to the creditor to satisfy the loan through completion of a deed in-lieu-of foreclosure or similar legal agreement. Additionally, ASU No. 2014-04 requires the Company to disclose both the amount of foreclosed residential real estate property held and the investment in consumer mortgage loans collateralized by residential real estate that are in the process of foreclosure. ASU No. 2014-04 was effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2014. The Company adopted the provisions of this ASU effective January 1, 2015 using the prospective transition method. There was no significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements during the six-month period ending June 30, 2015.
ASU No. 2014-11
In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-11, Transfers and Servicing: Repurchase-to-Maturity Transactions, Repurchase Financings, and Disclosure, which implemented two accounting changes. ASU No. 2014-11 changes the accounting for repurchase-to-maturity transactions to secured borrowing accounting. For repurchase financing arrangements, ASU No. 2014-11 requires separate accounting for a transfer of a financial asset executed contemporaneously with a repurchase agreement with the same counterparty, which will result in secured borrowing accounting for the repurchase agreement. ASU No. 2014-11 was effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2014. The Company adopted the provisions of this ASU beginning January 1, 2015. There was no significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements during the six-month period ending June 30, 2015.
ASU No. 2014-14
In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-14, Receivables - Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors: Classification of Certain Government-Guaranteed Mortgage Loans Upon Foreclosure, in order to clarify how creditors classify government-guaranteed mortgage loans upon foreclosure, including loans guaranteed by the Federal Housing Administration (“FHA”) of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development and the U.S. Department of Veteran Affairs (“VA”).
ASU No. 2014-14 clarifies that a mortgage loan should be derecognized and that a separate other receivable be recognized upon foreclosure in creditor financial statements if 1) the loan has a government guarantee that is not separable from the loan before foreclosure, 2) at the time of foreclosure the creditor has the intent to convey the real estate property to the guarantor and make a claim on the guarantee, and 3) at the time of foreclosure, any amount of the claim that is determined on the basis of the fair value of the real estate is fixed. Upon foreclosure, the separate other receivable should be measured based on the amount of the loan balance, including principal and interest, expected to be recovered from the guarantor.

8


ASU No. 2014-14 was effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2014. The Company adopted the provisions of this ASU beginning January 1, 2015, using the prospective transition method (application of the amendments of the ASU to foreclosures occurring after the adoption date). There was no significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements during the six-month period ending June 30, 2015.
ASU No. 2015-01
In January 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-01, Income Statement – Extraordinary and Unusual Items: Simplifying Income Statement Presentation by Eliminating the Concept of Extraordinary Items, in an effort to comply with its simplification initiative to reduce complexity in accounting standards. The concept of extraordinary items will be eliminated from generally accepted accounting principles; however, the presentation and disclosure requirements for items that are unusual in nature or occur infrequently will be retained and expanded to include items that are both unusual and infrequent.
ASU No. 2015-01 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. The Company does not expect that the adoption of this ASU will have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
ASU No. 2015-02
In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-02, Consolidation: Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis, which changes the analysis that a reporting entity must perform to determine whether it should consolidate certain types of legal entities. The amendments in the guidance: 1) modify the evaluation of whether limited partnerships and similar legal entities are variable interest entities (VIEs) or voting interest entities, 2) eliminate the presumption that a general partner should consolidate a limited partnership, 3) affect the consolidation analysis of reporting entities that are involved with VIEs, particularly those that have fee arrangements and related party relationships, and 4) provide a scope exception from consolidation guidance for certain investment funds.

ASU No. 2015-02 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. The guidance may be applied using a modified retrospective approach by recording a cumulative effect adjustment to equity as of the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption. The amendments may also be applied retrospectively. The Company is still evaluating this ASU but does not expect that adoption will have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
ASU No. 2015-03
In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, Interest-Imputation of Interest: Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs, in an effort to comply with its simplification initiative to reduce complexity in accounting standards. ASU No. 2015-03 requires debt issuance costs related to a debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the debt liability. ASU No. 2015-03 does not affect recognition and measurement guidance for debt issuance costs.

ASU No. 2015-03 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. The guidance must be applied using a retrospective basis. The adoption of this ASU will not have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 3 –ACQUISITION ACTIVITY

Acquisition of Florida Bank Group, Inc.
On February 28, 2015, the Company acquired Florida Bank Group, Inc. (“Florida Bank Group”), the holding company of Florida Bank, a Tampa, Florida-based commercial bank servicing Tampa, Tallahassee and Jacksonville, Florida.

The Company acquired all of the outstanding common stock of the former Florida Bank Group shareholders for total consideration of $90.5 million, which resulted in goodwill of $16.9 million, as shown in the table below. With this acquisition, IBERIABANK expanded its presence in the Tampa, Tallahassee and Jacksonville areas of Florida through the addition of 12 bank offices and an experienced in-market team that enhances IBERIABANK’s ability to compete in that market.

Acquisition of Georgia Commerce Bancshares, Inc.
On May 31, 2015, the Company acquired Georgia Commerce Bancshares, Inc. (“Georgia Commerce”), holding company of Georgia Commerce Bank.

The Company accounted for the aforementioned business combinations under the acquisition method in accordance with ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations. Accordingly, the purchase price is allocated to the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the date of acquisition. The following purchase price allocations on these acquisitions are preliminary and will be finalized upon the receipt of final valuations on certain assets and liabilities. Upon receipt of final fair value estimates, which must be within one year of the acquisition dates, the Company will make any final adjustments to the purchase price allocation and retrospectively adjust any goodwill recorded. Material adjustments to acquisition date estimated fair values would be recorded in the period in which the acquisition occurred, and as a result, previously reported results are subject to change. Information regarding the Company’s loan discount and related deferred tax asset, core deposit intangible asset and related deferred tax liability, as well as income taxes payable and the related deferred tax balances recorded in the acquisitions may be adjusted as the Company refines its estimates. Determining the fair value of assets and liabilities, particularly illiquid assets and liabilities, is a complicated process involving significant judgment regarding estimates and assumptions used to calculate estimated fair value. Fair value adjustments based on updated estimates could materially affect the goodwill recorded on the acquisition. The Company may incur losses on the acquired loans that are materially different from losses the Company originally projected.

Supplemental unaudited pro forma information
The following unaudited pro forma information for the six months ended June 30, 2014 reflects the Company’s estimated consolidated results of operations as if the acquisitions of Florida Bank Group, Old Florida, and Georgia Commerce occurred at January 1, 2014, unadjusted for potential cost savings and/or synergies and preliminary purchase price adjustments.

The Company assessed the nature of the losses in its portfolio as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 to determine if there are losses that should be deemed other-than-temporary. In its analysis of these securities, management considered numerous factors to determine whether there were instances where the amortized cost basis of the debt securities would not be fully recoverable, including, but not limited to:
 
The length of time and extent to which the estimated fair value of the securities was less than their amortized cost,
Whether adverse conditions were present in the operations, geographic area, or industry of the issuer,
The payment structure of the security, including scheduled interest and principal payments, the issuer’s failure to make scheduled payments, if any, and the likelihood of failure to make scheduled payments in the future,
Changes to the rating of the security by a rating agency, and
Subsequent recoveries or additional declines in fair value after the balance sheet date.

16


Management believes it has considered these factors, as well as all relevant information available, when determining the expected future cash flows of the securities in question. In each instance, management has determined the cost basis of the securities would be fully recoverable. Management also has the intent to hold debt securities until their maturity or anticipated recovery if the security is classified as available for sale. In addition, management does not believe the Company will be required to sell debt securities before the anticipated recovery of the amortized cost basis of the security. As a result of the Company’s analysis, no declines in the estimated fair value of the Company’s investment securities were deemed to be other-than-temporary at June 30, 2015 or December 31, 2014.
At June 30, 2015, 180 debt securities had unrealized losses of 1.08% of the securities’ amortized cost basis. At December 31, 2014, 112 debt securities had unrealized losses of 1.31% of the securities’ amortized cost basis. The unrealized losses for each of the securities related to market interest rate changes and not credit concerns of the issuers. Additional information on securities that have been in a continuous loss position for over twelve months at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 is presented in the following table.

The Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, and Ginnie Mae securities are rated AA+ by S&P and Aaa by Moody’s. Two of the securities in a continuous loss position for over twelve months were issued by political subdivisions. The securities issued by political subdivisions have credit ratings by S&P ranging from A+ to AAA and credit ratings from Moody’s ranging from A2 to Aaa.
The amortized cost and estimated fair value of investment securities by maturity at June 30, 2015 are shown in the following table. Securities are classified according to their contractual maturities without consideration of principal amortization, potential prepayments or call options. Accordingly, actual maturities may differ from contractual maturities. Weighted average yields are calculated on the basis of the yield to maturity based on the amortized cost of each security.

Included as covered loans at December 31, 2014 is $174.7 million of assets whose reimbursable loss periods ended as of January 1, 2015.
Since 2009, the Company has acquired certain assets and liabilities of six failed banks. Substantially all of the loans and foreclosed real estate that were acquired through these transactions are covered by loss share agreements between the FDIC and IBERIABANK, which afford IBERIABANK loss protection. Refer to Note 7 for additional information regarding the Company’s loss sharing agreements.
Because of the loss protection provided by the FDIC, the risks of the loans and foreclosed real estate from these acquisitions are significantly different from those assets not covered under the loss share agreements. Accordingly, the Company presents loans subject to the loss share agreements as “covered loans” and loans that are not subject to the loss share agreements as “non-covered loans.”

Deferred loan origination fees were $22.3 million and $20.6 million and deferred loan expenses were $10.1 million and $9.4 million at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. In addition to loans issued in the normal course of business, the Company considers overdrafts on customer deposit accounts to be loans and reclassifies these overdrafts as loans in its consolidated balance sheets. At June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, overdrafts of $4.8 million and $5.6 million, respectively, have been reclassified to loans.

Loans with carrying values of $3.3 billion and $3.1 billion were pledged as collateral for borrowings at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively.
Non-covered Loans
The following tables provide an analysis of the aging of non-covered loans as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014. Due to the difference in accounting for acquired loans, the tables below further segregate the Company’s non-covered loans between loans originated by the Company (“legacy loans”) and acquired loans.

Loans Acquired
As discussed in Note 3, during the first six months of 2015, the Company acquired loans with fair values of $305.8 million from Florida Bank Group, $1.1 billion from Old Florida and $801.1 million from Georgia Commerce. Of the total $2.2 billion of loans acquired, $2.1 billion were determined to have no evidence of deteriorated credit quality and are accounted for under ASC Topics 310-10 and 310-20. The remaining $41.1 million were determined to exhibit deteriorated credit quality since origination under ASC 310-30. The tables below show the balances acquired during the first six months of 2015 for these two subsections of the portfolio as of the acquisition date. These amounts are subject to change due to the finalization of purchase accounting adjustments.

Troubled Debt Restructurings
Information about the Company’s troubled debt restructurings (“TDRs”) at June 30, 2015 and 2014 is presented in the following tables. Modifications of loans that are accounted for within a pool under ASC Topic 310-30, which include the covered loans above, as well as certain acquired loans are excluded as TDRs. Accordingly, such modifications do not result in the removal of those loans from the pool, even if the modification of those loans would otherwise be considered a TDR. As a result, all covered and certain acquired loans that would otherwise meet the criteria for classification as a TDR are excluded from the tables below.

24


TDRs totaling $29.5 million occurred during the six-month period ended June 30, 2015 through modification of the original loan terms. No TDRs occurred during the six months ended June 30, 2014. The following table provides information on how the TDRs were modified during the six months ended June 30, 2015:

Credit Quality
The Company’s investment in non-covered loans by credit quality indicator is presented in the following tables. Because of the difference in accounting for acquired loans, the tables below further segregate the Company’s non-covered loans between acquired loans and loans that were not acquired. Loan premiums/discounts in the tables below represent the adjustment of non-covered acquired loans to fair value at the acquisition date, as adjusted for income accretion and changes in cash flow estimates in subsequent periods. Asset risk classifications for commercial loans reflect the classification as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014. Credit quality information in the tables below includes loans acquired at the gross loan balance, prior to the application of premiums/discounts, at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014.

As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company was not committed to lend a material amount of additional funds to any customer whose loan was classified as impaired or as a troubled debt restructuring.


NOTE 7 – LOSS SHARING AGREEMENTS AND FDIC LOSS SHARE RECEIVABLE
Loss Sharing Agreements
Since 2009, the Company has acquired certain assets and liabilities of six failed banks. Substantially all of the loans and foreclosed real estate acquired through these transactions are covered by loss share agreements between the FDIC and IBERIABANK, which afford IBERIABANK loss protection.
During the reimbursable loss periods, the FDIC will cover 80% of covered loan and foreclosed real estate losses up to certain thresholds for the six acquisitions, and 95% of losses that exceed contractual thresholds for three acquisitions. The reimbursable loss periods, excluding single family residential assets, ended in 2014 for three acquisitions, will end during 2015 for one acquisition and during 2016 for two acquisitions. The reimbursable loss period for single family residential assets will end in 2019 for three acquisitions, in 2020 for one acquisition, and in 2021 for two acquisitions. To the extent that loss share coverage ends prior to triggering events on covered assets that would enable the Company to collect these amounts from the FDIC, future impairments may be required.
In addition, all covered assets, excluding single family residential assets, have a three year recovery period, which begins upon expiration of the reimbursable loss period. During the recovery periods, the Company must reimburse the FDIC for its share of any recovered losses, net of certain expenses, consistent with the covered loss reimbursement rates in effect during the recovery periods.

31


FDIC loss share receivables
The Company recorded indemnification assets in the form of FDIC loss share receivables as of the acquisition date of each of the six banks covered by loss share agreements. At acquisition, the indemnification assets represented the fair value of the expected cash flows to be received from the FDIC under the loss share agreements. Subsequent to acquisition, the FDIC loss share receivables are updated to reflect changes in actual and expected amounts collectible adjusted for amortization.
The following is a summary of FDIC loss share receivables year-to-date activity:

The goodwill acquired during the first six months of 2015 is a result of the Florida Bank Group, Old Florida, and Georgia Commerce acquisitions. The goodwill acquired in 2014 was a result of the Trust One-Memphis, Teche, First Private, and The Title Company, LLC acquisitions. See Note 3 for further information.
The Company performed the required annual goodwill impairment test as of October 1, 2014. The Company’s annual impairment test did not indicate impairment in any of the Company’s reporting units as of the testing date. Subsequent to the testing date, management has evaluated the events and changes that would indicate that goodwill might be impaired and concluded that a subsequent test is not required.
Mortgage Servicing Rights
Mortgage servicing rights are recorded at the lower of cost or market value in “Other assets” on the Company's consolidated balance sheets and amortized over the remaining servicing life of the loans, with consideration given to prepayment assumptions.

NOTE 9 –DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND OTHER HEDGING ACTIVITIES
The Company enters into derivative financial instruments to manage interest rate risk, asset sensitivity, and other exposures such as liquidity and credit risk. The primary types of derivatives used by the Company include interest rate swap agreements, interest rate lock commitments, forward sales commitments, and written and purchased options. All derivative instruments are recognized on the consolidated balance sheets as other assets or other liabilities at fair value, as required by ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging.
For cash flow hedges, the effective portion of the gain or loss related to the derivative instrument is initially reported as a component of other comprehensive income and subsequently reclassified into earnings when the forecasted transaction affects earnings or when the hedge is terminated. The ineffective portion of the gain or loss is reported in earnings immediately. In applying hedge accounting for derivatives, the Company establishes and documents a method for assessing the effectiveness of the hedging derivative and a measurement approach for determining the ineffective aspect of the hedge upon the inception of the hedge.
For derivative instruments that are not designated as hedging instruments, changes in the fair value of the derivatives are recognized in earnings immediately.

The Company is party to collateral agreements with certain derivative counterparties. Such agreements require that the Company maintain collateral based on the fair values of individual derivative transactions. In the event of default by the Company, the counterparty would be entitled to the collateral.

34


At June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company was required to post $13.5 million and $11.5 million, respectively, in cash as collateral for its derivative transactions, which are included in interest-bearing deposits in banks on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The Company does not anticipate additional assets will be required to be posted as collateral, nor does it believe additional assets would be required to settle its derivative instruments immediately if contingent features were triggered at June 30, 2015. The Company’s master netting agreements represent written, legally enforceable bilateral agreements that (1) create a single legal obligation for all individual transactions covered by the master agreement and (2) in the event of default, provide the non-defaulting counterparty the right to accelerate, terminate, and close-out on a net basis all transactions under the agreement and to promptly liquidate or set-off collateral posted by the defaulting counterparty. As permitted by U.S. GAAP, the Company does not offset fair value amounts recognized for the right to reclaim cash collateral or the obligation to return cash collateral against recognized fair value amounts of derivatives executed with the same counterparty under a master netting agreement. The following table reconciles the gross amounts presented in the consolidated balance sheets to the net amounts that would result in the event of offset.

During the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, the Company has not reclassified into earnings any gain or loss as a result of the discontinuance of cash flow hedges because it was probable the original forecasted transaction would not occur by the end of the originally specified term.
At June 30, 2015, the fair value of derivatives that will mature within the next twelve months is $0.7 million. The Company does not expect to reclassify any amount from accumulated other comprehensive income into interest income over the next twelve months for derivatives that will be settled.

NOTE 10 –CAPITAL RATIOS AND OTHER REGULATORY MATTERS
The Company and IBERIABANK are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal and state banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company’s financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Company and IBERIABANK, as applicable, must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of their assets, liabilities and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors.
On January 1, 2015, the Company and IBERIABANK became subject to revised capital adequacy standards as implemented by new final rules approved by the U.S. banking regulatory agencies, including the FRB, to address relevant provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act. Certain provisions of the new rules will be phased in from that date to January 1, 2019.
The final rules:
 
Require that non-qualifying capital instruments, including trust preferred securities and cumulative perpetual preferred stock, must be fully phased out of Tier 1 capital by January 1, 2016,
Establish new qualifying criteria for regulatory capital, including new limitations on the inclusion of deferred tax assets and mortgage servicing rights,
Require a minimum ratio of common equity Tier 1 capital (“CET1”) to risk-weighted assets of 4.5%,
Increase the minimum Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets ratio requirements from 4% to 6%,
Implement a new capital conservation buffer requirement for a banking organization to maintain a CET1 capital ratio more than 2.5% above the minimum CET1 capital, Tier 1 capital and total risk-based capital ratios in order to avoid limitations on capital distributions, including dividend payments, and certain discretionary bonus payments to executive officers, with the buffer to be phased in beginning on January 1, 2016 at 0.625% and increasing annually until fully phased in at 2.5% by January 1, 2019. A banking organization with a buffer of less than the required amount would be subject to increasingly stringent limitations on certain distributions and payments as the buffer approaches zero, and
Increase capital requirements for past-due loans, high volatility commercial real estate exposures, and certain short-term commitments and securitization exposures.
Management believes that, as of June 30, 2015, the Company and IBERIABANK met all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject.

37


As of June 30, 2015, the most recent notification from the FDIC categorized IBERIABANK as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action (the prompt corrective action requirements are not applicable to the Company) existing at the time of notification. To be categorized as well capitalized, an institution must maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier 1 risk-based and Tier 1 leverage ratios as set forth in the following table. There are no conditions or events since the notification that management believes have changed that categorization. The Company’s and IBERIABANK’s actual capital amounts and ratios as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 are presented in the following table.

NOTE 11 – EARNINGS PER SHARE
Share-based payment awards that entitle holders to receive non-forfeitable dividends before vesting are considered participating securities that are included in the calculation of earnings per share using the two-class method. The two-class method is an earnings allocation formula under which earnings per share is calculated for common stock and participating securities according to dividends declared and participating rights in undistributed earnings. Under this method, all earnings, distributed and undistributed, are allocated to common shares and participating securities based on their respective rights to receive dividends.
The following table presents the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share for the periods indicated.

For the three months ended June 30, 2015, and 2014, the calculations for basic shares outstanding exclude the weighted average shares owned by the Recognition and Retention Plan (“RRP”) of 597,975, and 629,055, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2015, and 2014, basic shares outstanding exclude 601,698 and 634,883 shares owned by the RRP, respectively.
The effects from the assumed exercises of 8,926, and 11,623 stock options were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share for the three months ended June 30, 2015, and 2014, respectively, because such amounts would have had an antidilutive effect on earnings per common share. For the six months ended June 30, 2015, and 2014, the effects from the assumed exercise of 79,793 and 11,623 stock options, respectively, were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because such amounts would have had an antidilutive effect on earnings per common share.

NOTE 12 – SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION
The Company has various types of share-based compensation plans that permit the granting of awards in the form of stock options, restricted stock, restricted share units, phantom stock and performance units. These plans are administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors, which selects persons eligible to receive awards and determines the terms, conditions and other provisions of the awards. At June 30, 2015, awards of 803,729 shares could be made under approved incentive compensation plans.
Stock option awards
The Company issues stock options under various plans to directors, officers and other key employees. The option exercise price cannot be less than the fair value of the underlying common stock as of the date of the option grant and the maximum option term cannot exceed ten years.

At June 30, 2015, there was $3.5 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to stock options that is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 5.5 years.

Restricted stock awards
The Company issues restricted stock under various plans for certain officers and directors. The restricted stock awards may not be sold or otherwise transferred until certain restrictions have lapsed. The holders of the restricted stock receive dividends and have the right to vote the shares. The compensation expense for these awards is determined based on the market price of the Company’s common stock at the date of grant applied to the total number of shares granted and is recognized over the vesting period. As of June 30, 2015 and 2014, unrecognized share-based compensation associated with these awards totaled $24.0 million and $24.8 million, respectively.
Restricted Share Units
During the first halves of 2015 and 2014, the Company issued restricted share units to certain of its executive officers. Restricted share units vest after the end of a three-year performance period, based on satisfaction of the market and

40


performance conditions set forth in the restricted share unit agreement. Recipients do not possess voting or investment power over the common stock underlying such units until vesting. The grant date fair value of these restricted share units is the same as the value of the corresponding number of shares of common stock, adjusted for assumptions surrounding the market-based conditions contained in the respective agreements.

Phantom stock awards
The Company issues phantom stock awards to certain key officers and employees. The awards are subject to a vesting period of five to seven years and are paid out in cash upon vesting. The amount paid per vesting period is calculated as the number of vested “share equivalents” multiplied by the closing market price of a share of the Company’s common stock on the vesting date. Share equivalents are calculated on the date of grant as the total award’s dollar value divided by the closing market price of a share of the Company’s common stock on the grant date. Award recipients are also entitled to a “dividend equivalent” on each unvested share equivalent held by the award recipient. A dividend equivalent is a dollar amount equal to the cash dividends that the participant would have been entitled to receive if the participant’s share equivalents were issued in shares of common stock. Dividend equivalents are reinvested as share equivalents that will vest and be paid out on the same date as the underlying share equivalents on which the dividend equivalents were paid. The number of share equivalents acquired with a dividend equivalent is determined by dividing the aggregate of dividend equivalents paid on the unvested share equivalents by the closing price of a share of the Company’s common stock on the dividend payment date.
Performance Units
During the first halves of 2015 and 2014, the Company issued shares of performance units to certain of its executive officers. Performance units are tied to the value of shares of the Company’s common stock, are payable in cash, and vest in increments of one-third per year after attainment of one or more performance measures. The value of performance units is the same as the value of the corresponding number of shares of common stock.
The following table indicates compensation expense recorded for phantom stock and performance units based on the number of share equivalents vested at June 30 of the periods indicated and the current market price of the Company’s stock at that time:

Except for share equivalents at the beginning of each period, which are based on the value at that time, and vested share payments, which are based on the cash paid at the time of vesting, the value of share equivalents is calculated based on the market price of the Company’s stock at the end of the respective periods. The market price of the Company’s stock was $68.23 and $69.19 on June 30, 2015, and 2014, respectively.


NOTE 13 – FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
Fair value guidance establishes a framework for using fair value to measure assets and liabilities. The Company estimates fair value based on the assumptions market participants would use when selling an asset or transferring a liability and characterizes such measurements within the fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used to develop those assumptions and measure fair value. The hierarchy requires the Company to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The three levels of inputs used to measure fair value are as follows:
 
Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 - Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.
Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. This includes certain pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques that use significant unobservable inputs.
A description of the valuation methodologies used for instruments measured at fair value follows, as well as the classification of such instruments within the valuation hierarchy.
Recurring fair value measurements
Securities available for sale
Securities are classified within Level 1 where quoted market prices are available in an active market. Inputs include securities that have quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. If quoted market prices are unavailable, fair value is estimated using quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics, at which point the securities would be classified within Level 2 of the hierarchy.
Mortgage loans held for sale
Mortgage loans originated and held for sale are recorded at fair value under the fair value option and are based on quotes or bids received directly from the purchasing financial institutions (Level 2).

42


Derivative financial instruments
The Company enters into commitments to originate loans whereby the interest rate on the prospective loan is determined prior to funding. Rate locks on mortgage loans that are intended to be sold are considered to be derivatives. The Company offers its customers a certificate of deposit that provides the purchaser a guaranteed return of principal at maturity plus potential return, which allows the Company to identify a known cost of funds. The rate of return is based on an equity index, and as such represents an embedded derivative. Fair value of interest rate swaps, interest rate locks, forward sales commitments, and equity-linked written and purchased options are estimated using prices of financial instruments with similar characteristics, and thus are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
The Company has segregated all financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis into the most appropriate level within the fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used to estimate the fair value at the measurement date in the tables below.

Non-recurring fair value measurements
Other real estate owned (OREO)
Fair values of OREO are determined by sales agreement or appraisal, and costs to sell are based on estimation per the terms and conditions of the sales agreement or amounts commonly used in real estate transactions. Inputs include appraisal values on the properties or recent sales activity for similar assets in the property’s market, and thus OREO measured at fair value would be classified within Level 2 of the hierarchy. The Company included property write-downs of $2.9 million and $1.4 million in earnings for the six-month periods ending June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

The Company has segregated all financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis into the most appropriate level within the fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used to determine the fair value at the measurement date in the tables below.

The tables above exclude the initial measurement of assets and liabilities that were acquired as part of the acquisitions completed in 2014 through the second quarter of 2015. These assets and liabilities were recorded at their fair value upon acquisition in accordance with U.S. GAAP and were not re-measured during the periods presented unless specifically required by U.S. GAAP. Acquisition date fair values represent either Level 2 fair value measurements (investment securities, OREO, property, equipment, and debt) or Level 3 fair value measurements (loans, deposits, and core deposit intangible asset).
The Company did not record any liabilities at fair value for which measurement of the fair value was made on a non-recurring basis at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014.

Fair value option
The Company has elected the fair value option for certain originated residential mortgage loans held for sale, which allows for a more effective offset of the changes in fair values of the loans and the derivative instruments used to hedge them without the burden of complying with the requirements for hedge accounting.
The following table summarizes the difference between the aggregate fair value and the aggregate unpaid principal balance for mortgage loans held for sale measured at fair value:

Interest income on mortgage loans held for sale is recognized based on contractual rates and is reflected in interest income on loans held for sale in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income. Net gains (losses) resulting from the change in fair value of these loans that were recorded in mortgage income in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 totaled $(164.3) thousand and $1.8 million, respectively, while net gains resulting from the change in fair value of these loans were $1.8 million and $5.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively. The changes in fair value are mostly offset by economic hedging activities, with an immaterial portion of these changes attributable to changes in instrument-specific credit risk.

NOTE 14 – FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The estimated fair value of a financial instrument is the current amount that would be exchanged between willing parties, other than in a forced liquidation. Fair value is best determined based upon quoted market prices. However, in many instances, there are no quoted market prices for the Company’s various financial instruments. In cases where quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on estimates using present value or other valuation techniques. Those techniques are significantly affected by the assumptions used, including the discount rate and estimates of future cash flows. Accordingly, the fair value estimates may not be realized in an immediate settlement of the instrument. ASC Topic 825, Financial Instruments, excludes certain financial instruments and all non-financial instruments from its disclosure requirements. Accordingly, the aggregate fair value amounts presented may not necessarily represent the underlying fair value of the Company.
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate that value. Refer to Note 13 to these consolidated financial statements for the methods and assumptions used to measure the fair value of investment securities and derivative instruments.
Cash and cash equivalents
The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents approximate their fair values.

Loans
The fair values of non-covered mortgage loans are estimated based on present values using entry-value rates (the interest rate that would be charged for a similar loan to a borrower with similar risk at the indicated balance sheet date) at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, weighted for varying maturity dates. Other non-covered loans are valued based on present values using entry-value interest rates at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 applicable to each category of loans, which would be classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy. Fair values of mortgage loans held for sale are based on commitments on hand from investors or prevailing market prices, a Level 2 measurement. Covered loans are measured using projections of expected cash flows, exclusive of the loss sharing agreements with the FDIC. Fair value of the covered loans included in the table below reflects the current fair value of these loans, which is based on an updated estimate of the projected cash flow as of the dates indicated. The fair value associated with the loans includes estimates related to expected prepayments and the amount and timing of undiscounted expected principal, interest and other cash flows, which also would be classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy.

FDIC Loss Share Receivables
The fair value is determined using projected cash flows from loss sharing agreements based on expected reimbursements for losses at the applicable loss sharing percentages based on the terms of the loss share agreements. Cash flows are discounted to reflect the timing and receipt of the loss sharing reimbursements from the FDIC. The fair value of the Company’s FDIC loss share receivable would be categorized within Level 3 of the hierarchy.
Deposits
The fair values of NOW accounts, money market deposits and savings accounts are the amounts payable on demand at the reporting date. Certificates of deposit were valued using a discounted cash flow model based on the weighted-average rate at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 for deposits with similar remaining maturities. The fair value of the Company’s deposits would therefore be categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
Short-term borrowings
The carrying amounts of short-term borrowings maturing within ninety days approximate their fair values.
Long-term debt
The fair values of long-term debt are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses based on the Company’s current incremental borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements. The fair value of the Company’s long-term debt would therefore be categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

45


Off-balance sheet items
The Company has outstanding commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. These off-balance sheet financial instruments are generally exercisable at the market rate prevailing at the date the underlying transaction will be completed. At June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the fair value of guarantees under commercial and standby letters of credit was immaterial.

NOTE 15 – BUSINESS SEGMENTS
Each of the Company’s reportable operating segments is a business unit that serves the specific needs of the Company’s customers based on the products and services it offers. The reportable segments are based upon those revenue-producing components for which separate financial information is produced internally and are subject to evaluation by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources to segments. The Company reports the results of its operations through three business segments: IBERIABANK, IMC, and LTC.
The IBERIABANK segment represents the Company’s commercial and retail banking functions including its lending, investment, and deposit activities. IBERIABANK also includes the Company’s wealth management, capital markets, and other corporate functions that are not specifically related to a strategic business unit. The IMC segment represents the Company’s origination, funding and subsequent sale of one-to-four family residential mortgage loans. The LTC segment represents the Company’s title insurance and loan closing services. Certain expenses not directly attributable to a specific reportable segment are allocated to segments based on pre-determined means that reflect utilization.
Also within IBERIABANK are certain reconciling items in order to translate reportable segment results into consolidated results. The following tables present certain information regarding our operations by reportable segment, including a reconciliation of segment results to reported consolidated results for the periods presented. Reconciling items between segment results and reported results include:
 
Elimination of interest income and interest expense representing interest earned by IBERIABANK on interest-bearing checking accounts held by related companies, as well as the elimination of the related deposit balances at the IBERIABANK segment;
Elimination of investment in subsidiary balances on certain operating segments included in total and average segment assets; and
Elimination of intercompany due to and due from balances on certain operating segments that are included in total and average segment assets.

NOTE 16 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Off-balance sheet commitments
The Company is a party to credit related financial instruments with risk not reflected in the consolidated financial statements in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit, standby letters of credit, and commercial letters of credit. Such commitments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated balance sheets. The credit policies used for these commitments are consistent with those used for on-balance sheet instruments. The Company’s exposure to credit loss in the event of non-performance by its customers under such commitments or letters of credit represents the contractual amount of the financial instruments as indicated in the table below. At June 30, 2015, and December 31, 2014, the fair value of guarantees under commercial and standby letters of credit was $1.4 million and 1.3 million, respectively. This fair value amount represents the unamortized fee associated with these guarantees and is included in “Other liabilities” on the Company's consolidated balance sheets. This fair value will decrease as the existing commercial and standby letters of credit approach their expiration dates.
The Company had the following financial instruments outstanding, whose contract amounts represent credit risk:

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to be drawn upon, the total commitment amounts generally represent future cash requirements. The Company evaluates each customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral, if any, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the customer.
Unfunded commitments under commercial lines of credit, revolving credit lines and overdraft protection agreements are commitments for possible future extensions of credit to existing customers. Many of these types of commitments do not contain a specified maturity date and may or may not be drawn upon to the total extent to which the Company is committed. See Note 6 for additional discussion related to the Company’s unfunded lending commitments.

49


Commercial and standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. These letters of credit are primarily issued to support public and private borrowing arrangements, including commercial paper issuance, bond financing, and similar transactions. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers and as such, are collateralized when necessary, generally in the form of marketable securities and cash equivalents.
Legal proceedings
The nature of the business of the Company’s banking and other subsidiaries ordinarily results in a certain amount of claims, litigation, investigations and legal and administrative cases and proceedings, all of which are considered incidental to the normal conduct of business. Some of these claims are against entities or assets of which the Company is a successor or acquired in business acquisitions, and certain of these claims will be covered by loss sharing agreements with the FDIC. The Company has asserted defenses to these litigations and, with respect to such legal proceedings, intends to continue to defend itself vigorously, litigating or settling cases according to management’s judgment as to what is in the best interest of the Company and its shareholders.
The Company assesses its liabilities and contingencies in connection with outstanding legal proceedings utilizing the latest information available. Where it is probable that the Company will incur a loss and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated, the Company records a liability in its consolidated financial statements. These legal reserves may be increased or decreased to reflect any relevant developments on a quarterly basis. Where a loss is not probable or the amount of loss is not estimable, the Company does not accrue legal reserves. While the outcome of legal proceedings is inherently uncertain, based on information currently available, advice of counsel and available insurance coverage, the Company’s management believes that it has established appropriate legal reserves. Any liabilities arising from pending legal proceedings are not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, consolidated results of operations or consolidated cash flows. However, in the event of unexpected future developments, it is possible that the ultimate resolution of these matters, if unfavorable, may be material to the Company’s consolidated financial position, consolidated results of operations or consolidated cash flows.
As of the date of this filing, the Company believes the amount of losses associated with legal proceedings that it is reasonably possible to incur above amounts already accrued is immaterial.

NOTE 17 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On August 5, 2015, the Company issued an aggregate of 3,200,000 depositary shares (the “Depositary Shares”), each representing a 1/400th ownership interest in a share of the Company’s 6.625% Fixed-to-Floating Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series B, par value $1.00 per share, (“Series B Preferred Stock”), with a liquidation preference of $10,000 per share of Series B Preferred Stock (equivalent to $25 per depositary share) which represents $80,000,000 in aggregate liquidation preference.
Dividends will accrue and be payable on the Series B preferred stock, subject to declaration by the Company’s board of directors, from the date of issuance to, but excluding August 1, 2025, at a rate of 6.625% per annum, payable semi-annually, in arrears, and from and including August 1, 2025, dividends will accrue and be payable at a floating rate equal to three-month LIBOR plus a spread of 426.2 basis points, payable quarterly, in arrears. The Company may redeem the Series B preferred stock at its option, subject to regulatory approval, as described in the Prospectus.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion and analysis is intended to assist readers in understanding the consolidated financial condition and results of operations of IBERIABANK Corporation and its wholly owned subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) as of June 30, 2015, and updates the Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the unaudited consolidated financial statements, accompanying footnotes and supplemental financial data included herein. The emphasis of this discussion will be amounts as of June 30, 2015 compared to December 31, 2014 for the balance sheets and the three months and six months ended June 30, 2015 compared to June 30, 2014 for the statements of comprehensive income. Certain amounts in prior year presentations have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation, except as otherwise noted.
When we refer to the “Company,” “we,” “our” or “us” in this Report, we mean IBERIABANK Corporation and Subsidiaries (consolidated). When we refer to the “Parent,” we mean IBERIABANK Corporation. See the Glossary of Acronyms at the end of this Report for terms used throughout this Report.
To the extent that statements in this Report relate to future plans, objectives, financial results or performance of the Company, these statements are deemed to be forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such statements, which are based on management’s current information, estimates and assumptions and the current economic environment, are generally identified by use of the words “may,” “plan,” “believe,” “expect,” “intend,” “will,” “should,” “continue,” “potential,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “predict,” “project” or similar expressions, or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology, including statements related to the expected timing of proposed mergers, the expected returns and other benefits of proposed mergers to shareholders, expected improvement in operating efficiency resulting from mergers, estimated expense reductions, the impact on and timing of the recovery of the impact on tangible book value, and the effect of mergers on the Company’s capital ratios.

Summary of 2015 Second Quarter Results
Net income available to common shareholders for the three months ended June 30, 2015 totaled $30.8 million, a 90.1% increase compared to $16.2 million for the same period in 2014. Earnings for the second quarter of 2015 are net of $12.7 million in pre-tax merger-related expenses related to the Old Florida system conversions during the quarter and the acquisition of Georgia Commerce on May 31, 2015.
On a diluted per common share basis, earnings for the second quarter of 2015 were $0.79, compared to $0.53 for the same quarter of 2014. Excluding the impact of non-operating items, primarily merger-related expenses, diluted earnings per share for the second quarter of 2015 were $1.05 on a non-GAAP operating basis, compared to $0.89 for the same quarter of 2014. See Table 20, Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures.
Fully-taxable equivalent net interest income was $147.7 million for the quarter, a $36.2 million, or 32.5%, increase compared to the same quarter of 2014. The second quarter of 2015 reflects a $4.0 billion, or 31.5%, increase in average earning assets and a five basis point increase in average yield, partially offset by a $2.6 billion, or 27.0%, increase in average interest-bearing liabilities and a six basis point increase in funding costs, as compared to the second quarter of 2014. As a result, net interest margin on an annualized basis increased three basis points to 3.52% from 3.49% and the net interest spread decreased one basis point to 3.38% from 3.39% when comparing the periods.
Non-interest income increased $17.8 million, or 40.6%, from the second quarter of 2014, primarily due to an $11.5 million, or 83.5%, increase in mortgage income. In the second quarter of 2015, the Company originated $700 million in mortgage loans, up $264 million, or 60.6%, from the year-ago quarter. The Company sold $663 million in mortgage loans, up $268 million, or 67.8%, from the second quarter of 2014.
Non-interest expense for the second quarter of 2015 increased $26.1 million, or 20.5% compared to the same quarter of 2014. Salaries and employee benefits expense increased $15.2 million, or 22.0%, over the second quarter of 2014, primarily as a result of the Company’s growth, including the acquisitions of First Private, Florida Bank Group, Old Florida and Georgia Commerce in the past 12 months. Merger-related expenses contributed to $2.3 million of the overall increase and were associated with the system conversion of Old Florida and acquisition of Georgia Commerce.
Summary of 2015 Year-to-Date Results
For the six months ended June 30, 2015, net income available to common shareholders totaled $56.0 million, a $17.4 million, or 45.2%, increase compared to $38.6 million for the same period in 2014. Earnings for the first half of 2015 are net of $22.0 million in pre-tax merger-related expenses related to the acquisitions and conversions of Florida Bank Group, Old Florida and Georgia Commerce.
On a diluted per common share basis, earnings were $1.54 for the six months ended June 30, 2015, compared to $1.27 for the same period in 2014. Excluding the impact of non-operating items, primarily merger-related expenses, diluted earnings per share for the first half of 2015 were $2.00 on a non-GAAP operating basis, compared to $1.63 for the same period in 2014. See Table 20, Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures.
Fully-taxable equivalent net interest income was $275.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015, a $57.4 million, or 26.3%, increase compared to the same period in 2014. The first half of 2015 reflects a $3.2 billion, or 25.8%, increase in average earning assets and a four basis point increase in average yield, partially offset by a $2.1 billion, or 22.3%, increase in average interest-bearing liabilities and a six basis point increase in funding costs as compared to the same period in 2014. As a result, net interest margin on an annualized basis increased two basis points to 3.53% from 3.51% and the net interest spread decreased two basis points to 3.39% from 3.41% when comparing the periods.
Non-interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2015 totaled $110.4 million, an increase of $31.0 million, or 39.0%, from the same period in 2014. The increase was primarily due to a $19.4 million, or 81.1%, increase in mortgage income and a $4.2 million, or 27.7%, increase in service charges on deposit accounts when comparing the periods.
Non-interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2015 increased $52.0 million, or 22.2%, compared to the same period in 2014. Salaries and employee benefits expense increased $28.0 million, or 21.8%, over the first half of 2014, primarily

52


attributable to the Company’s growth, including its recent acquisitions. In addition, merger-related expenses contributed $11.0 million to the overall increase.
Business Overview
The Company’s long-term financial goals through 2016 are: (1) return on average tangible common equity of 13% to 17%; (2) tangible efficiency ratio of 60%; (3) asset quality in the top 10% of our peers; and (4) double-digit percentage growth in fully-diluted operating EPS. Overall, the second quarter results were consistent with forecasts, and the Company continues to make progress towards the achievement of its long-term strategic goals.
The Company continued to deliver solid financial performance in the second quarter of 2015 despite only a partial phasing-in of acquisition synergies during the quarter. The Company completed the acquisition of Georgia Commerce on May 31, 2015. Georgia Commerce was headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia, and added nine bank offices in the Metro Atlanta market. This acquisition added $801.1 million in loans (after preliminary discounts) and $908.0 million in deposits.
Legacy loans, which exclude loans covered under FDIC loss share protection and other non-covered acquired loans, were $10.4 billion at June 30, 2015, an increase of $726.8 million, or 7.5%, from December 31, 2014. Legacy commercial loans, which include business banking loans, increased $536.5 million, or 7.7%, legacy consumer loans increased $101.5 million, or 4.7%, and legacy mortgage loans increased $88.8 million, or 16.8%, over December 31, 2014 balances.
From an asset quality perspective, legacy non-performing assets increased $29.4 million compared to December 31, 2014, due primarily to two legacy relationships totaling $21.5 million that moved to non-accrual status during the first quarter of 2015. The Company believes the non-performing loan relationships are sufficiently reserved to address credit concerns. Net charge-offs increased to an annualized rate of 14 basis points of average loans during the second quarter of 2015, compared to 4 basis points for the second quarter of 2014. The increase in net charge-offs was primarily related to retail and private banking clients located in markets not associated with energy activity, and a reduced level of recoveries. Legacy loans past due 30 days or more increased $16.0 million, or 24.5% from December 31, 2014, and represented 0.78% of total legacy loans at June 30, 2015, compared to 0.67% at December 31, 2014.
Excluding the current year acquisitions, which contributed approximately $2.7 billion in deposits, total legacy deposits increased $909.0 million, or 7.3%, since December 31, 2014. Total non-interest bearing deposits increased $971.4 million, or 30.4%, and equaled 25.8% of total deposits at June 30, 2015.

The Company implemented the provisions of the U.S. Basel III final rules that became effective January 1, 2015, subject to a phase in period for certain provisions through January 1, 2019. The implementation of the new Basel III requirements, which impacted the qualifying criteria for regulatory capital and increased risk-weights for certain assets, reduced the Company’s resulting risk-based capital ratios; however, and despite the reduction, IBERIABANK continued to meet the minimum requirements to be considered well-capitalized under regulatory guidelines as of June 30, 2015.
2015 Outlook
While energy prices remain depressed, the Company has not experienced a significant impact on its energy portfolio and credit exposures. At June 30, 2015, the Company had accrued $15 million in aggregate reserves for energy-related loans and unfunded commitments. Currently, the Company expects little to no losses in the exploration and production or midstream portfolios (66.6% of energy loans outstanding as of June 30, 2015), and limited losses in the service company portfolio. Energy-related loans declined $93.0 million, or 10.6%, from December 31, 2014 to June 30, 2015, due to loan pay-downs and pay-offs. Energy-related loans declined from 7.7% of total loans at December 31, 2014, to 5.6% at June 30, 2015.
The mortgage origination locked pipeline was $329 million at June 30, 2015, compared to $139 million at December 31, 2014 and $180 million at June 30, 2014. Mortgage income for the second quarter of 2015 was up $7.2 million from the first quarter of 2015 and $11.5 million from the second quarter of 2014. The commercial pipeline is currently in excess of $850 million.
In addition to a strong loan pipeline, the Company is experiencing growth in its treasury management and client derivatives businesses, both of which are expected to benefit if interest rates begin to rise. IBERIA Capital Partners (“ICP”), the Company’s energy investment banking boutique, experienced a recent uptick in business, and revenue from IBERIA Wealth Advisors (“IWA”) is stable. Revenues for ICP increased 54% on a linked quarter basis, and were down 6% compared to the second quarter of 2014. Revenues for IWA increased 7% on a linked quarter basis, and were up 17% compared to the second quarter of 2014. Assets under management at IWA were $1.4 billion at June 30, 2015, up 3.8% compared to December 31, 2014.

53


In January 2015, the Company announced it was exiting the indirect automobile lending business, after reaching the conclusion that the compliance risk associated with the indirect automobile lending business had become unbalanced relative to potential returns generated by the business on a risk-adjusted basis. At June 30, 2015, the Company’s indirect automobile lending business had $323.0 million in loans outstanding, down $74.2 million, or 18.7% compared to December 31, 2014, and this portfolio will continue to run off as intended throughout the remainder of 2015 and beyond.
Absent an increase in interest rates, and based on current expectations of credit quality, business segment performance and the achievement of targeted synergies associated with recent acquisitions, forecasted operating EPS for the full-year 2015 will be between $4.22 and $4.27, compared to $3.73 in 2014, a 13% to 14% increase compared to 2014 operating results. Original estimates reported as of March 31, 2015 of $4.45 to $4.50 were revised downward to remove a forecasted interest rate increase, which given the current forward interest rate curve, is no longer expected to occur in 2015.
ACQUISITION ACTIVITY

Tangible calculations eliminate the effect of goodwill and acquisition-related intangible assets and the corresponding amortization expense on a tax-effected basis where applicable. See Table 20 for Non-GAAP reconciliations.
(3)
Interest rate spread represents the difference between the weighted average yield on earning assets and the weighted average cost of interest-bearing liabilities. Net interest margin represents net interest income as a percentage of average net earning assets.
(4)
Fully taxable equivalent (TE) calculations include the tax benefit associated with related income sources that are tax-exempt using a marginal tax rate of 35%.
(5)
The efficiency ratio represents non-interest expense as a percentage of total revenues. Total revenues are the sum of net interest income and non-interest income.
(6)
Non-performing loans consist of non-accruing loans and loans 90 days or more past due. Non-performing assets consist of non-performing loans and repossessed assets.
Net Interest Income/Net Interest Margin

Net interest income is the difference between interest realized on earning assets and interest paid on interest-bearing liabilities and is also the driver of core earnings. As such, it is subject to constant scrutiny by management. The rate of return and relative risk associated with earning assets are weighed to determine the appropriateness and mix of earning assets. Additionally, the need for lower cost funding sources is weighed against relationships with clients and future growth opportunities. The Company’s net interest spread, which is the difference between the yields earned on average earning assets and the rates paid on average interest-bearing liabilities, was 3.38% and 3.39%, during the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and 3.39% and 3.41% for the respective six-month periods. The Company’s net interest margin on a taxable

55


equivalent (“TE”) basis, which is net interest income (TE) as a percentage of average earning assets, was 3.52% and 3.49% for the quarters ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and 3.53% and 3.51% for the respective six-month periods.
The following tables set forth information regarding (i) the total dollar amount of interest income from earning assets and the resultant average yields; (ii) the total dollar amount of interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities and the resultant average rates; (iii) net interest income; (iv) net interest spread; and (v) net interest margin. Information is based on average daily balances during the indicated periods. Investment security market value adjustments and trade-date accounting adjustments are not considered to be earning assets and, as such, the net effect is included in non-earning assets.

Net interest income increased $36.4 million, or 33.3%, to $145.7 million for the second quarter of 2015, and $57.8 million, or 27.0%, on a year-to-date basis. The increase in net interest income was the result of an increase in average earning assets and an improvement in the earning asset yield for the second quarter and first six months of 2015 when compared to the same periods of 2014. The average balance sheet growth over the past twelve months is primarily a result of acquisitions, although the Company has also experienced organic growth in its legacy loan portfolio and deposits.
Average loans made up 79.7% and 78.8% of average earning assets in the second quarters of 2015 and 2014, respectively, and 79.8% and 78.9% for the respective six-month periods. Average loans increased $3.3 billion, or 33.0%, when comparing the second quarter of 2015 to the same quarter of 2014, and $2.7 billion, or 27.2%, when comparing the six months of 2015 to the same period of 2014. The increase in loans was a result of growth in both the legacy and non-covered acquired loan portfolios. Investment securities made up 14.8% and 16.6% of average earning assets for the second quarters of 2015 and 2014, respectively, and 15.3% and 17.0% for the respective six-month periods.
Average interest-bearing deposits made up 92.5% and 87.3% of average interest-bearing liabilities in the second quarters of 2015 and 2014, respectively, and 90.9% and 88.8% for the respective six-month periods. Average short-term borrowings and long-term debt made up 7.5% of average interest-bearing liabilities in the second quarter of 2015, compared to 12.7% for the second quarter of 2014, and 9.1% for the first six months of 2015, compared to 11.2% for the same period of 2014.
The increase in yield on total earning assets when comparing 2015 to 2014 was driven by a decrease in amortization of the Company’s FDIC loss share receivable (which results in a negative yield for this asset), partially offset by a decrease in the yield on legacy loans (within loans held for investment) and other earning assets. The decrease in amortization on the loss share receivables is the result of the contractual expiration of loss share coverage on three acquired portfolios covered by loss share agreements with the FDIC in the second half of 2014.
The following table sets forth information regarding average loan balances and average yields, segregated into the covered and non-covered portfolios, for the periods indicated. Information on the Company’s covered loan portfolio is presented both with and without the yield on the FDIC loss share receivable.

Provision for Credit Losses
On a consolidated basis, the Company recorded a provision for loan losses of $14.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015, a $7.3 million increase from the provision recorded for the same period of 2014. The Company also recorded a provision for unfunded lending commitments of $1.4 million during the current year, included in “Credit and other loan-related expense” in the Company’s consolidated statements of comprehensive income. As a result, the Company’s total provision for credit losses was $15.5 million in the first six months of 2015, $8.6 million, or 123.7%, above the provision recorded in the first six months of 2014. The Company’s total provision for the first six months of 2015 included a $1.5 million provision for changes in expected cash flows on the acquired loan portfolios (covered and non-covered) and a $12.6 million provision on legacy loans. Annualized quarter-to-date net charge-offs to average loans in the legacy portfolio were 0.14% as of June 30, 2015, compared to 0.06% as of December 31, 2014 and 0.04% as of June 30, 2014.
See the Asset Quality section for further discussion on past due loans, non-performing assets, troubled debt restructurings and the allowance for credit losses.

Non-interest Income
The Company’s operating results for the three months ended June 30, 2015 included non-interest income of $61.5 million compared to $43.8 million for the same period of 2014. The increase in non-interest income was primarily a result of increases in mortgage income and service charges on deposit accounts. Non-interest income as a percentage of total gross revenue (defined as total interest and dividend income and non-interest income) in the second quarter of 2015 was 27.7% compared to 26.8% of total gross revenue in the second quarter of 2014.
In the second quarter of 2015, mortgage production increased due to the combination of a favorable rate environment and improved recruiting in key markets, which resulted in an $11.5 million increase in mortgage income over the second quarter of 2014. In the second quarter of 2015, the Company originated $700 million in mortgage loans, up $264 million, or 60.6%, from the year-ago quarter. The Company sold $663 million in mortgage loans, up $268 million, or 67.8% from the second quarter of 2014.
Service charges on deposit accounts increased $2.0 million in the second quarter of 2015 over the second quarter of 2014, due primarily to an increase in customers as a result of the Teche, First Private, Florida Bank Group and Old Florida acquisitions in the past twelve months.
Other fluctuations in non-interest income included modest increases in title revenue, ATM/debit card fee income, and gains on the sale of securities available for sale.
On a year-to-date basis, non-interest income increased $31.0 million to $110.4 million, compared to $79.4 million in 2014. The increase was primarily due to a $19.4 million, or 81.1%, increase in mortgage income and a $4.2 million, or 27.7%, increase in service charges on deposit accounts when comparing the periods.
Non-interest Expense
The Company’s results for the second quarter of 2015 include non-interest expense of $153.2 million, an increase of $26.1 million, or 20.5%, over the same period of 2014. Ongoing attention to expense control is part of the Company’s corporate culture. However, the Company’s recent investments in acquisitions, product expansion, and operating systems have led to increases in several components of non-interest expense.
Merger-related expenses totaled $12.7 million for the second quarter of 2015, an increase of $2.3 million compared to $10.4 million for the second quarter of 2014. Excluding merger-related and other non-operating expenses, non-interest expense would have increased $26.5 million. For the quarter, the Company’s efficiency ratio was 73.9%, but excluding non-operating income and expenses and the effect of amortization on intangibles, the Company’s tangible operating efficiency ratio would have been 65.3%, compared to 71.3% in the second quarter of 2014.
Salaries and employee benefits increased $15.2 million in the second quarter of 2015 when compared to the same period in 2014, primarily the result of increased staffing due to the growth of the Company. The Company completed four acquisitions since June 30, 2014 and had 3,215 full-time equivalent employees at the end of the second quarter of 2015, an increase of 455, or 16.5%, from the end of the second quarter of 2014.
Net occupancy and equipment expenses were up $1.3 million over the second quarter of 2014, primarily due to operating merger-related expenses, as the Company incurred increased rent and depreciation, signage, and other expenses in the current quarter related to the recently closed acquisitions. Occupancy and equipment expenses also include repairs and maintenance on branches, utilities, rentals and property taxes.
For the six months ended June 30, 2015, non-interest expense totaled $286.4 million, a $52.0 million, or 22.2%, increase from $234.4 million for the same period of 2014. Salaries and employee benefits expense increased $28.0 million, or 21.8%, over the first half of 2014, primarily attributable to the Company’s growth, including its recent acquisitions. In addition, merger-related expenses contributed $11.0 million to the increase. Excluding merger-related and other non-operating expenses, non-interest expense would have increased $43.8 million.

60


Income Taxes
For the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, the Company recorded income tax expense of $14.4 million and $4.9 million, equating to an effective income tax rate of 31.8% and 23.3%, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, the Company recorded income tax expense of $25.4 million and $13.4 million, respectively, which resulted in an effective income tax rate of 31.2% for the first half of 2015 and 25.7% for the same period of 2014.
The difference between the effective tax rate and the statutory federal and state tax rates relates to items that are non-taxable or non-deductible, primarily the effect of tax-exempt income, the non-deductibility of a portion of the amortization recorded on acquisition intangibles, and various tax credits. The effective tax rate was negatively impacted by the increase in pre-tax income and the adoption of a new accounting standard during the first quarter of 2015 that requires investments in affordable housing projects be amortized into income tax expense as an offset to the income tax credits received from those investments. The post-merger effect of the 2015 acquisitions also contributed to the increase in the effective tax rate due to the upward movement in the Company's state effective tax rate given the higher statutory tax rates in Florida and Georgia.
FINANCIAL CONDITION
Earning Assets
Interest income associated with earning assets is the Company’s primary source of income. Earning assets are composed of interest-earning or dividend-earning assets, including loans, securities, short-term investments and loans held for sale. As a result of both acquired assets and organic growth, earning assets increased $3.1 billion, or 21.8%, since December 31, 2014.
The following discussion highlights the Company’s major categories of earning assets.
Loans
The Company’s total loan portfolio increased $2.5 billion, or 21.9%, from year-end 2014 to $14.0 billion at June 30, 2015, which was driven by legacy loan growth of $726.8 million and acquired loans from Florida Bank Group, Old Florida and Georgia Commerce of $2.2 billion, offset slightly by a $177.9 million, or 40.0%, decrease in covered loans. By loan type, the increase was primarily driven by commercial loan growth of $2.0 billion during the first six months of 2015, 26.2% higher than at the end of 2014.
The major categories of loans outstanding at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 are presented in the following tables, segregated into covered, acquired non-covered and legacy loans.

Loan Portfolio Components
The Company’s loan to deposit ratio at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 was 86.5% and 91.4%, respectively. The percentage of fixed rate loans to total loans was 48.6% at both June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014. The discussion below highlights activity by major loan type.
Commercial Loans
Total commercial loans increased $2.0 billion, or 26.2%, from December 31, 2014, with $2.2 billion, or 29.0%, in non-covered loan growth offset by a decrease in covered commercial loans of $157.7 million, or 71.6%. During the first six months of 2015, the Company’s non-covered acquired commercial loans increased $1.7 billion on a net basis primarily related to acquired commercial loans from Florida Bank Group, Old Florida and Georgia Commerce, as well as the movement of certain covered loans to non-covered acquired loans upon expiration of their loss share coverage period. Legacy commercial loan growth during the first six months of 2015 totaled $536.5 million. The Company continued to attract and retain commercial customers as commercial loans were 70.7% of the total loan portfolio at June 30, 2015, compared to 68.3% at December 31, 2014. Unfunded commitments on commercial loans, including approved loan commitments not yet funded, were $3.8 billion at June 30, 2015, an increase of $531.3 million, or 16.1%, when compared to year-end 2014.

Commercial real estate loans include loans to commercial customers for long-term financing of land and buildings or for land development or construction of a building. These loans are repaid from revenues generated from the business of the borrower. Commercial real estate loans increased $1.5 billion, or 33.6%, during the first six months of 2015, driven by an increase in non-covered commercial real estate loans of $1.6 billion offset by a decrease of $139.6 million in covered loans. At June 30, 2015, commercial real estate loans totaled $5.9 billion, or 42.2% of the total loan portfolio, compared to 38.5% at December 31, 2014. The Company’s underwriting standards generally provide for loan terms of three to five years, with amortization schedules of generally no more than twenty years. Low loan-to-value ratios are maintained and usually limited to no more than 80% at the time of origination. In addition, the Company obtains personal guarantees of the principals as additional security for most commercial real estate loans.
Commercial business loans represent loans to commercial customers to finance general working capital needs, equipment purchases and other projects where repayment is derived from cash flows resulting from business operations. The Company originates commercial business loans on a secured and, to a lesser extent, unsecured basis. The Company’s commercial business loans may be term loans or revolving lines of credit. Term loans are generally structured with terms of no more than three to five years, with amortization schedules of generally no more than seven years. Commercial business term loans are generally secured by equipment, machinery or other corporate assets. The Company also provides for revolving lines of credit generally structured as advances upon perfected security interests in accounts receivable and inventory. Revolving lines of credit generally have annual maturities. The Company obtains personal guarantees of the principals as additional security for most commercial business loans. As of June 30, 2015, commercial loans not secured by real estate totaled $4.0 billion, or 28.5% of the total loan portfolio. This represents a $562.1 million, or 16.5%, increase from December 31, 2014.
The following table details the Company’s commercial loans by state.

Energy-related Loans
The Company’s loan portfolio includes energy-related loans totaling $787.6 million outstanding at June 30, 2015, or 5.6% of total loans, compared to $880.6 million at December 31, 2014, a decrease of $93.0 million, or 10.6%. At June 30, 2015, exploration and production (“E&P”) loans accounted for 48.3% of energy-related loans and 53.4% of energy-related commitments. Midstream companies accounted for 18.3% of energy-related loans and 16.3% of energy commitments, while service company loans totaled 33.4% of energy-related loans and 30.3% of energy commitments.
As a result of the significant decline in energy commodity prices toward the end of 2014, the Company continues to assess its exposure to the energy industry and continues to take steps to identify the risk the decline in energy prices has on both the asset quality of its energy lending portfolio, as well as the asset quality of the Company’s clients in its markets with higher exposure to these declines, including Houston, Texas, Southwest Louisiana, and Acadiana.

Generally, service companies are the most affected by fluctuations in commodity prices, while midstream companies are least affected. Based on the composition of its portfolio at June 30, 2015, the Company believes most of its exposure is in areas of lower credit risk. The Company believes it has generally lent to borrowers in the energy industry that are neither heavily leveraged nor lack either liquidity or guarantor support at time of origination and the Company continues to monitor these levels post-origination. Further, the Company’s borrowers participate in a broadly diversified set of basins and a variety of oil and gas related activities.
The Company will continue to monitor its exposure to changes in energy commodity prices and related risks throughout 2015.
Mortgage Loans
Residential mortgage loans consist of loans to consumers to finance a primary residence. The vast majority of the residential mortgage loan portfolio is comprised of 1-4 family mortgage loans secured by properties located in the Company's market areas and originated under terms and documentation that permit sale in the secondary market. Larger mortgage loans of current and prospective private banking clients are generally retained to enhance relationships, but also tend to be more profitable due to the expected shorter durations and relatively lower servicing costs associated with loans of this size. The Company does not originate or hold high loan-to-value, negative amortization, option ARM, or other exotic mortgage loans in its portfolio. In the third quarter of 2012, the Company began to invest in loans that would be considered subprime (e.g., loans with a FICO score of less than 620) in order to facilitate compliance with relevant Community Reinvestment Act regulations. The Company expects to continue to invest in subprime loans through additional secondary market purchases, as well as direct originations, in 2015, albeit up to a limited amount. The Company did not make a significant investment in subprime loans during the first half of 2015.
The Company continues to sell the majority of conforming mortgage loan originations in the secondary market rather than assume the interest rate risk associated with these longer term assets. Upon the sale, the Company retains servicing on a limited portion of these loans. Total residential mortgage loans increased $89.3 million, or 8.3%, compared to December 31, 2014, the result of private banking originations and acquired mortgage loans.
Consumer and Credit Card Loans
The Company offers consumer loans in order to provide a full range of retail financial services to its customers. The Company originates substantially all of its consumer loans in its primary market areas. At June 30, 2015, $2.9 billion, or 21.0%, of the total loan portfolio was comprised of consumer loans, compared to $2.5 billion, or 22.3%, at the end of 2014. Total consumer loans increased $376.1 million, or 14.8%, from December 31, 2014, primarily due to growth in home equity loans and lines of credit of $370.0 million.
In January 2015, the Company announced it would exit the indirect automobile lending business. The Company concluded compliance risk associated with these loans had become unbalanced relative to potential returns generated by the business on a risk-adjusted basis. At June 30, 2015, indirect automobile loans totaled $323.0 million, 2.3% of the total loan portfolio. Based on current amortization rates and expected maturities, the vast majority of these loans will be exited within four years.
The remainder of the consumer loan portfolio at June 30, 2015 consisted of credit card loans, direct automobile loans and other personal loans, and comprised 4.5% of the overall loan portfolio.
Overall, the composition of the Company’s loan portfolio as of June 30, 2015 is consistent with the composition as of December 31, 2014.

Additional information on the Company’s consumer loan portfolio is presented in the following tables. For the purposes of Table 9, unscoreable consumer loans have been included with loans with FICO scores below 660. FICO scores reflect information available as of the Company’s most recent update.

Mortgage Loans Held for Sale
Loans held for sale increased $80.7 million, or 57.6%, to $220.8 million at June 30, 2015 compared to year-end 2014. The increase in the balance during the first six months of 2015 was a result of an increase in origination activity during the current quarter despite a slowdown of refinance activities. Thus far in 2015, the Company has originated $1.2 billion in mortgage loans, offset by sales of $1.1 billion.
Loans held for sale have primarily been fixed-rate single-family residential mortgage loans under contracts to be sold in the secondary market. In most cases, loans in this category are sold within thirty days of closing. Loan purchasers generally have recourse to return a purchased loan to the Company under limited circumstances. Recourse conditions may include fraud in the origination, breach of representations or warranties, and documentation deficiencies. At June 30, 2015, mortgage loans held for sale subject to repurchase were immaterial. The Company has recorded a reserve of $0.8 million for potential repurchases at June 30, 2015. An insignificant number of loans have been returned to the Company.
Asset Quality
Management believes that it has demonstrated proficiency in managing credit risk through timely identification of significant problem loans, prompt corrective action, and transparent disclosure. Selected asset quality measures and related discussion follow in Tables 10 through 13.

64


The Company utilizes an asset risk classification system in accordance with guidelines established by the FRB as part of its efforts to monitor commercial asset quality. In connection with their examinations of insured institutions, both federal and state examiners also have the authority to identify problem assets and, if appropriate, reclassify them. There are three classifications for problem assets: “substandard,” “doubtful” and “loss,” all of which are considered adverse classifications. Substandard assets have one or more defined weaknesses and are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Company will sustain some loss if the weaknesses are not corrected. Doubtful assets have the weaknesses of substandard assets with the additional characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full questionable, and there is a high probability of loss based on currently existing facts, conditions and values. An asset classified as loss is considered not collectible and of such little value that continuance as an asset of the Company is not warranted. Commercial loans with adverse classifications are reviewed by the Board Risk Committee of the Board of Directors periodically. Loans are placed on non-accrual status when they are 90 days or more past due unless, in the judgment of management, the probability of timely collection of interest is deemed to be sufficient to warrant further accrual. When a loan is placed on non-accrual status, the accrual of interest income ceases and accrued but unpaid interest attributable to the current year is reversed against interest income. Accrued interest receivable attributable to the prior year is recorded as a charge-off to the allowance for credit losses.
The asset quality of residential mortgage loans and other consumer loans are generally classified and monitored based on days-past-due status.
Real estate acquired by the Company through foreclosure or by deed-in-lieu of foreclosure is classified as OREO, and is recorded at the lesser of the related loan balance (the pro-rata carrying value for acquired loans) or estimated fair value less estimated costs to sell.
Under GAAP, certain loan modifications or restructurings are designated as TDRs. In general, the modification or restructuring of a debt constitutes a TDR if the Company, for economic or legal reasons related to the borrower’s financial difficulties, grants a concession to the borrower that the Company would not otherwise consider under current market conditions.
Non-performing Assets
The Company defines nonperforming assets as nonaccrual loans, accruing loans more than 90 days past due, OREO and foreclosed property.
Covered loans represent loans acquired through failed bank acquisitions and which continue to be covered by loss sharing agreements with the FDIC, whereby the FDIC reimburses the Company for the majority of the losses incurred during the loss share claim period. In addition to covered loans, the Company also accounts for loans formerly covered by loss sharing agreements with the FDIC, other loans acquired with deteriorated credit quality, as well as all loans acquired with significant discounts that did not exhibit deteriorated credit quality at acquisition, in accordance with ASC Topic 310-30. Collectively, all loans accounted for under ASC 310-30 are referred to as purchased impaired loans.
Due to the significant difference in accounting for covered loans and the related FDIC loss sharing agreements, as well as non-covered acquired loans accounted for as purchased impaired loans, and given the significant amount of acquired impaired loans that are past due but still accruing, the Company believes inclusion of these loans in certain asset quality ratios that reflect nonperforming assets in the numerator or denominator (or both) results in significant distortion to these ratios. In addition, because loan level charge-offs related to purchased impaired loans are not recognized in the financial statements until the cumulative amounts exceed the original loss projections on a pool basis, the net charge-off ratio for acquired loans is not consistent with the net charge-off ratio for other loan portfolios. The inclusion of these loans in certain asset quality ratios could result in a lack of comparability across quarters or years, and could impact comparability with other portfolios that were not impacted by purchased impaired loan accounting. The Company believes that the presentation of certain asset quality measures excluding either covered loans or all purchased impaired loans, as indicated below, and related amounts from both the numerator and denominator provides better perspective into underlying trends related to the quality of its loan portfolio. Accordingly, the asset quality measures in the tables below present asset quality information excluding either covered loans or all purchased impaired loans, as indicated within each table, and related amounts.

Total loans, total non-performing loans, and total assets exclude loans and assets covered by FDIC loss share agreements and acquired loans discussed below.

The allowance for credit losses excludes the portion of the allowance related to covered loans and acquired non-covered loans discussed below.
Non-performing legacy loans were 0.64% of total legacy loans at June 30, 2015, 27 basis points higher than at December 31, 2014. Legacy non-performing assets were 0.55% of total legacy assets at June 30, 2015, 14 basis points higher than at December 31, 2014. The increase in legacy non-performing assets for the first six months of 2015 was due primarily to two legacy relationships totaling $21.5 million that moved to non-accrual status during the first quarter of 2015. The Company believes it has sufficient reserves to address credit concerns associated with these loan relationships. Non-performing assets during the second quarter of 2015 also included one relationship totaling $3.4 million which regained current status subsequent to quarter-end. The Company’s reserve for credit losses as a percentage of legacy loans increased two basis points from 0.91% at December 31, 2014 to 0.93% at June 30, 2015.
The Company had gross charge-offs on legacy loans of $7.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2015. Offsetting these charge-offs were recoveries of $2.0 million. As a result, net charge-offs on legacy loans for the first six months of 2015 were $5.1 million, or 0.10% of average loans, as compared to net charge-offs of $1.8 million, or 0.04%, for the first six months of 2014.

At June 30, 2015, excluding loans covered by the FDIC loss share agreements (see “Covered Loans” below), the Company had $183.2 million of commercial loans classified as substandard, $23.9 million of commercial loans classified as doubtful, and $34,000 in commercial loans classified as loss (before the application of loan discounts to acquired loans). Accordingly, the aggregate of the Company’s classified loans was 1.08% of total assets, 1.49% of total loans, and 1.51% of non-covered loans. At December 31, 2014, classified commercial loans totaled $112.2 million, or 0.71% of total assets, 0.98% of total loans, and 1.02% of non-covered loans. As with non-classified loans, a reserve for credit losses has been recorded for all substandard loans at June 30, 2015 according to the Company’s allowance policy.

66


In addition to the problem loans described above, excluding covered loans, there were $98.8 million of loans classified as special mention at June 30, 2015, which in management’s opinion were subject to potential future rating downgrades. Special mention loans are defined as loans where known information about possible credit problems of the borrowers causes management to have some doubt as to the ability of these borrowers to comply with the present loan repayment terms, which may result in future disclosure of these loans as non-performing. Special mention loans increased $24.7 million, or 33.4%, from December 31, 2014, and is attributable primarily to acquisitions and organic loan growth.
Past Due Loans
Past due status is based on the contractual terms of loans. At June 30, 2015, total past due non-covered loans were 1.32% of total loans, an increase of 14 basis points from December 31, 2014. Including covered loans, total past due loans were 1.67% of total loans before discount adjustments at June 30, 2015 and 1.92% at December 31, 2014. Additional information on non-covered past due loans is presented in the following table.

The acquired loans balance represents the outstanding balance of loans that would otherwise meet the Company’s definition of non-accrual loans.

Total non-covered past due loans increased $50.3 million from December 31, 2014 to $180.4 million at June 30, 2015. The change was due to increases in total non-accrual loans of $57.2 million and accruing loans past due 90 days or more of $2.9 million, partially offset by a decrease of $9.8 million of loans past due 30-89 days.
Total legacy loans past due increased $16.0 million, or 24.5%, from December 31, 2014. The change was due primarily to increases in legacy non-accrual loans of $27.8 million and accruing loans past due 90 days or more of $2.8 million offset by decreases of $13.0 million of loans 30-59 days past due and $1.6 million of loans 60-89 days past due. The increase in legacy

67


non-accrual loans was due primarily to two relationships totaling $21.5 million that moved to non-accrual status during the first quarter of 2015.
Total acquired loans past due increased $34.2 million or 52.8%, from December 31, 2014 to $99.1 million at June 30, 2015. The change was primarily attributable to an increase of $28.7 million in non-accrual loans related to the movement of certain covered non-single family loans to non-covered acquired loans after the expiration of their loss share agreements in 2015.
Covered Loans
Since 2009, the Company has acquired certain assets and liabilities of six failed banks. Substantially all of the loans and foreclosed real estate acquired through these transactions are covered by loss share agreements between the FDIC and IBERIABANK, which afford IBERIABANK loss protection. As a result of the loss protection provided by the FDIC, the risk of loss on the acquired loans and foreclosed real estate can be significantly different from those assets not covered under the loss share agreements.
Although covered loans are not included in the Company’s nonperforming assets, in accordance with bank regulatory reporting standards, both acquired loans considered impaired at the time of acquisition and those performing at the time of acquisition that meet the Company’s definition of a non-performing loan at each balance sheet date are discussed below. Included in the discussion are all covered loans that are contractually past due based on the number of days past due. Certain measures of the asset quality of covered loans are discussed below. Loan balances are reported before consideration of applied loan discounts, as these discounts were recorded based on the estimated cash flow of the total loan pool and not on a specific loan basis. The loss share agreements with the FDIC limit the Company’s exposure to loss during the loss claim period to no more than 20% of incurred losses for all covered loans and as little as 5% of incurred losses for certain loans. Therefore, balances discussed below are for general comparative purposes only and do not represent the Company’s risk of loss on covered assets.

This amount represents the outstanding balance of covered loans that would otherwise meet the Company’s definition of non-accrual loans.
Covered loans past due at June 30, 2015 totaled $55.6 million before discounts, a decrease of $36.8 million, or 39.8%, from December 31, 2014. The decrease is consistent with not only the overall decrease in the covered loan portfolio due to the expiration of certain loss share coverage agreements, but also with the steady improvement in asset quality in the covered loan portfolio over time. Past due covered loans at June 30, 2015 included $51.3 million in loans that would otherwise meet the Company’s definition of non-accrual loans and $4.3 million in accruing loans past due, of which $3.9 million were past due less than 90 days. The indemnification agreements on covered assets include a provision for recapture of a portion of interest if the interest is included in total losses on the covered asset.
Of the $36.8 million decrease in covered loans past due, loans past due 30 to 89 days decreased $2.3 million, or 37.4%, while non-performing loans (defined as accruing loans greater than 90 days past due and loans that meet the definition of non-accrual loans) decreased $34.5 million, or 40.0%. These decreases were primarily a result of the movement of certain non-single family loans to non-covered acquired loans after the expiration of their loss sharing agreements in 2015 as well as loan payments during the first half of 2015.

Allowance for Credit Losses
During the second quarter of 2015, the Company did not substantively change any material aspect of its overall approach in the determination of the allowance for credit losses and there have been no material changes in assumptions or estimation techniques as compared to December 31, 2014. See the discussion in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 for further information.
The manner in which the allowance for credit losses is determined is based on the accounting method applied to the underlying loans. The Company delineates between loans accounted for under the contractual yield method, primarily legacy loans, and loans accounted for as purchased impaired loans.
Legacy Loans
Legacy loans represent loans accounted for under the contractual yield method. The Company’s legacy loans include loans originated by the Company.

Acquired Loans
Acquired loans, which include covered loans and certain non-covered loans, represent loans acquired by the Company that are accounted for in accordance with either ASC 310-20 or ASC 310-30.
Loans acquired in business combinations were recorded at their acquisition date fair values, which were based on expected cash flows and included estimates of expected future credit losses. If the Company determines that losses arose after the acquisition date, the additional losses will be reflected as a provision for credit losses.
At June 30, 2015, the Company had an allowance for credit losses of $14.5 million to reserve for probable losses currently in the covered loan portfolio and $29.9 million to reserve for probable losses currently in the acquired loan portfolio that have arisen after the losses estimated at the respective acquisition dates. Based on facts and circumstances available, management of the Company believes that the allowance for credit losses was appropriate at June 30, 2015 to cover probable losses in the Company’s loan portfolio. However, future adjustments to the allowance may be necessary, and the results of operations could be adversely affected, if circumstances differ substantially from the assumptions used by management in determining the allowance for credit losses.
The allowance for credit losses was $141.4 million at June 30, 2015, or 1.01% of total loans, $0.5 million lower than at December 31, 2014. The allowance for credit losses as a percentage of loans was 1.24% at December 31, 2014.
The decrease in the allowance was primarily related to a decrease in reserves on the covered portfolio. The allowance for credit losses on the covered portfolio decreased $1.5 million excluding the movement of allowance attributable to assets no longer covered under loss sharing agreements. The decrease was primarily due to a change in expected cash flows on certain of the acquired loan pools during the first six months of 2015.
The allowance for credit losses on the legacy portfolio increased $9.0 million, or 10.2%, since December 31, 2014, primarily due to the additional allowance on $726.8 million in legacy loan growth in the first six months of 2015. Legacy non-accrual and classified loans also increased during the first half of 2015 by $27.8 million and $49.1 million, respectively, when compared to year-end 2014, primarily due to two legacy relationships totaling $21.5 million that moved to non-accrual status during the first quarter of 2015.
At June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, excluding the acquired loan portfolios, the allowance for loan losses covered non-performing loans 1.3 times and 2.1 times, respectively. Including acquired non-covered loans, the allowance for loan losses covered 63.0% and 65.6% of total past due and non-accrual loans at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014.

FDIC Loss Share Receivable
As part of the FDIC-assisted acquisitions in 2009 and 2010, the Company recorded a receivable from the FDIC, which represented the fair value of the expected reimbursable losses covered by the loss share agreements as of the acquisition dates. The FDIC loss share receivable decreased $19.1 million, or 27.5%, from $69.6 million at December 31, 2014 to $50.5 million at June 30, 2015. The decrease is due primarily to amortization of $13.4 million, submission of reimbursable losses to the FDIC of $3.2 million and OREO cash flow improvements of $1.7 million. See Note 7 to the consolidated financial statements for discussion of the reimbursable loss periods of the loss share agreements.

Investment Securities
Investment securities increased by $238.8 million, or 10.5%, since December 31, 2014 to $2.5 billion at June 30, 2015 due to both acquired investment securities and open-market security purchases. Investment securities approximated 13.1% and 14.4% of total assets at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. Investment securities decreased to 15.3% of average earnings assets in the first six months of 2015 compared to 17.0% for the same period of 2014.
All of the Company’s mortgage-backed securities are agency securities. The Company does not hold any Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac preferred stock, corporate equity, collateralized debt obligations, collateralized loan obligations, or structured investment vehicles, nor does it hold any private label collateralized mortgage obligations, sub-prime, Alt-A, or second lien elements in its investment portfolio. At June 30, 2015, the Company’s investment portfolio did not contain any securities that are directly backed by subprime or Alt-A mortgages.
Funds generated as a result of sales and prepayments are used to fund loan growth and purchase other securities. The Company continues to monitor market conditions and take advantage of market opportunities with appropriate risk and return elements.
The Company assesses the nature of the losses in its investment portfolio at least quarterly to determine if there are losses that are deemed other-than-temporary. Based on its analysis, the Company concluded no declines in the market value of the

70


Company’s investment securities are deemed to be other-than-temporary at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014. Note 4 to the unaudited consolidated financial statements provides further information on the Company’s investment securities.
Short-term Investments
Short-term investments result from excess funds invested overnight in interest-bearing deposit accounts at the FRB and the FHLB of Dallas. These balances fluctuate daily depending on the funding needs of the Company and earn interest at the current Federal Reserve and FHLB discount rate. The balance in interest-bearing deposits at other institutions of $591.0 million at June 30, 2015 increased $294.9 million, or 99.6%, from December 31, 2014. The increase was primarily due to the acquired deposits as a result of the Florida Bank Group, Old Florida and Georgia Commerce acquisitions. The Company’s cash activity is further discussed in the “Liquidity and Other Off-Balance Sheet Activities” section below.
FUNDING SOURCES
Deposits obtained from clients in its primary market areas are the Company’s principal source of funds for use in lending and other business purposes. The Company attracts local deposit accounts by offering a wide variety of accounts, competitive interest rates and convenient branch office locations and service hours. Increasing core deposits through acquisitions and the development of client relationships is a continuing focus of the Company. Short-term and long-term borrowings have become an important funding source as the Company has grown. Other funding sources include junior subordinated debt and shareholders’ equity. Refer to the “Liquidity” section below for further discussion of the Company’s sources and uses of funding. The following discussion highlights the major changes in the mix of deposits and other funding sources during the first six months of 2015.
Deposits
The Company’s ability to attract and retain customer deposits is critical to the Company’s continued success. During the first six months of 2015, total deposits increased $3.6 billion, or 29%, totaling $16.1 billion at June 30, 2015. Total non-interest-bearing deposits increased $971.4 million, or 30%, and interest-bearing deposits increased $2.6 billion, or 28%, from December 31, 2014. Acquired deposits of $2.7 billion from Florida Bank Group, Old Florida and Georgia Commerce accounted for the majority of the increase from year-end 2014, while $909.0 million, or 25% of the total growth from December 31, 2014, was a result of organic deposit growth.

The following table sets forth the composition of the Company’s deposits as of the dates indicated.

From a market perspective, total deposit growth (excluding acquired deposits) was seen primarily in the Houston, Birmingham, Dallas and Shreveport markets. Houston's customer deposits increased $391.2 million, or 37.4%, during the first six months of 2015, while total deposits in the Birmingham market increased $93.2 million, or 19.3%, since the end of 2014. Dallas had year-to-date customer deposit growth of $73.5 million, or 102.5%. The Shreveport market experienced total customer deposit growth of $68.7 million, or 43.4%.
Short-term Borrowings
The Company may obtain advances from the FHLB of Dallas based upon its ownership of FHLB stock and certain pledges of its real estate loans and investment securities, provided certain standards related to the Company’s creditworthiness have been met. These advances are made pursuant to several credit programs, each of which has its own interest rate and range of maturities. The level of short-term borrowings can fluctuate significantly on a daily basis depending on funding needs and the source of funds chosen to satisfy those needs.

71


The Company also enters into repurchase agreements to facilitate customer transactions that are accounted for as secured borrowings. These transactions typically involve the receipt of deposits from customers that the Company collateralizes with its investment portfolio and have rates ranging from 0.09% to 0.65%. The following table details the average and ending balances of repurchase transactions as of and for the three months ending June 30:

Total short-term borrowings decreased $577.4 million, or 68.3%, from December 31, 2014, to $268.3 million at June 30, 2015, a result of decreases of $543.7 million in FHLB advances outstanding and $33.7 million in repurchase agreements. On a quarter-to date average basis, short-term borrowings decreased $251.6 million, or 35.3%, from the fourth quarter of 2014. The decrease in the average outstanding balance was largely due to the repayment of FHLB advances during the first and second quarters of 2015.
Total short-term borrowings were 1.6% of total liabilities and 43.9% of total borrowings at June 30, 2015 compared to 6.1% and 67.7%, respectively, at December 31, 2014. On an average basis, short-term borrowings were 2.8% of total liabilities and 50.8% of total borrowings in the second quarter of 2015, compared to 7.3% and 74.9%, respectively, during the same period of 2014.
The weighted average rate paid on short-term borrowings was 0.19% during the second quarter of 2015, up three basis points compared to 0.16% in the second quarter of 2014.

Long-term Debt

Long-term debt decreased $60.9 million to $342.3 million at June 30, 2015 from $403.3 million at December 31, 2014 due to payments on FHLB borrowings of approximately $180 million as part of a deleveraging strategy, partially offset by borrowings acquired from bank acquisitions during the period. The Company incurred approximately $1.3 million of loss on early extinguishment of debt. On a period-end basis, long-term debt was 2.0% and 2.9% of total liabilities at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively.
On average, long-term debt increased to $447.0 million in the second quarter of 2015, $142.3 million, or 46.7%, higher than for the second quarter of 2014, primarily due to the acquisitions completed over the past 12 months. Average long-term debt was 2.8% of total liabilities during the current quarter, compared to 2.5% during the second quarter of 2014.
Long-term debt at June 30, 2015 included $141.7 million in fixed-rate advances from the FHLB of Dallas that cannot be prepaid without incurring substantial penalties. The remaining debt consisted of $120.1 million of the Company’s junior subordinated debt, and $80.5 million in notes payable on investments in new market tax credit entities. Interest is payable quarterly and may be deferred at any time at the election of the Company for up to 20 consecutive quarterly periods. During any deferral period, the Company is subject to certain restrictions, including being prohibited from declaring dividends to its common shareholders. The junior subordinated debt is redeemable by the Company in whole or in part after five years, or earlier under certain circumstances.
CAPITAL RESOURCES
Federal regulations impose minimum regulatory capital requirements on all institutions with deposits insured by the FDIC. The FRB imposes similar capital regulations on bank holding companies. Compliance with bank and bank holding company regulatory capital requirements, which include leverage and risk-based capital guidelines, are monitored by the Company on an ongoing basis. Under the risk-based capital method, a risk weight is assigned to balance sheet and off-balance sheet items based on regulatory guidelines.

72


At June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company exceeded all required regulatory capital ratios, and the regulatory capital ratios of IBERIABANK were in excess of the levels established for “well-capitalized” institutions, as shown in the following table.

The decrease in IBERIABANK Corporation’s risk-based capital ratios from December 31, 2014 was due to the full implementation of risk weightings according to BASEL III capital requirements. Also affecting capital ratios at June 30, 2015 were (i) a decrease in covered assets due to the expiration of loss share coverage on January 1, 2015, thereby increasing the risk weighting associated with those assets and (ii) a partial phase-out of the Company's junior subordinated debt. For these reasons, the Company’s consolidated Tier 1 leverage ratio, Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio and total risk-based capital ratio decreased 12, 111 and 82 basis points, respectively, from year-end 2014.
At December 31, 2014, $108.5 million of the Company’s junior subordinated debt was included as Tier 1 capital in the Company’s risk-based capital ratios above. Effective January 1, 2015, 75% of the Company’s junior subordinated debt was excluded from Tier 1 capital. The remaining 25% will be excluded effective January 1, 2016. The Company’s junior subordinated debt excluded from Tier 1 capital at June 30, 2015 is included as Tier 2 capital, a component of total risk-based capital above.
For additional information regarding the Company's junior subordinated debt, see Note 16 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.

On August 5, 2015, the Company issued an aggregate of 3,200,000 depositary shares (the “Depositary Shares”), each representing a 1/400th ownership interest in a share of the Company’s 6.625% Fixed-to-Floating Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series B, par value $1.00 per share, (“Series B Preferred Stock”), with a liquidation preference of $10,000 per share of Series B Preferred Stock (equivalent to $25 per depositary share) which represents $80,000,000 in aggregate liquidation preference.
Had the issuance of the Series B Preferred Stock occurred prior to June 30, 2015, the Company estimates the issuance would have increased IBERIABANK Corporation's Tier 1 risk-based capital, total risk-based capital, and Tier 1 leverage ratios at June 30, 2015 by 48 basis points, 48 basis points, and 44 basis points, respectively.

LIQUIDITY AND OTHER OFF-BALANCE SHEET ACTIVITIES
Liquidity refers to the Company’s ability to generate sufficient cash flows to support its operations and to meet its obligations, including the withdrawal of deposits by customers, commitments to originate loans, and its ability to repay its borrowings and other liabilities. Liquidity risk is the risk to earnings or capital resulting from the Company’s inability to fulfill its obligations as they become due. Liquidity risk also develops from the Company’s failure to timely recognize or address changes in market conditions that affect the ability to liquidate assets in a timely manner or to obtain adequate funding to continue to operate on a profitable basis.
The primary sources of funds for the Company are deposits and borrowings. Other sources of funds include repayments and maturities of loans and investment securities, securities sold under agreements to repurchase, and, to a lesser extent, off-balance sheet borrowing needs. Certificates of deposit scheduled to mature in one year or less at June 30, 2015 totaled $1.8 billion. Based on past experience, management believes that a significant portion of maturing deposits will remain with the

73


Company. Additionally, the majority of the investment securities portfolio is classified as available-for-sale, which provides the ability to liquidate unencumbered securities as needed. Of the $2.5 billion in the investment securities portfolio, $1.3 billion is unencumbered and $1.2 billion has been pledged to support repurchase transactions, public funds deposits and certain long-term borrowings. Due to the relatively short implied duration of the investment securities portfolio, the Company has historically experienced significant cash inflows on a regular basis. Securities cash flows are highly dependent on prepayment speeds and could change materially as economic or market conditions change.
Scheduled cash flows from the amortization and maturities of loans and securities are relatively predictable sources of funds. Conversely, deposit flows, prepayments of loan and investment securities, and draws on customer letters and lines of credit are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions, competition, and customer demand. The FHLB of Dallas provides an additional source of liquidity to make funds available for general requirements and also to assist with the variability of less predictable funding sources. At June 30, 2015, the Company had $201.0 million of outstanding FHLB advances, $59.3 million of which was short-term and $141.7 million was long-term. Additional FHLB borrowing capacity at June 30, 2015 amounted to $3.9 billion. At June 30, 2015, the Company also had a $25.0 million one-year line of credit available with an unaffiliated bank. The Company and IBERIABANK also have various funding arrangements with commercial banks providing up to $130.0 million in the form of federal funds and other lines of credit. At June 30, 2015, there were no balances outstanding on these lines and all of the funding was available to the Company.
Liquidity management is both a daily and long-term function of business management. The Company manages its liquidity with the objective of maintaining sufficient funds to respond to the predicted needs of depositors and borrowers and to take advantage of investments in earning assets and other earnings enhancement opportunities. Excess liquidity is generally invested in short-term investments such as overnight deposits. On a longer-term basis, the Company maintains a strategy of investing in various lending and investment security products. The Company uses its sources of funds primarily to fund loan commitments and meet its ongoing commitments associated with its operations. Based on its available cash at June 30, 2015 and current deposit modeling, the Company believes it has adequate liquidity to fund ongoing operations. The Company has adequate availability of funds from deposits, borrowings, repayments and maturities of loans and investment securities to provide the Company additional working capital if needed.
ASSET/LIABILITY MANAGEMENT, MARKET RISK AND COUNTERPARTY CREDIT RISK
The principal objective of the Company’s asset and liability management function is to evaluate the interest rate risk included in certain balance sheet accounts, determine the appropriate level of risk given the Company’s business focus, operating environment, capital and liquidity requirements and performance objectives, establish prudent asset concentration guidelines and manage the risk consistent with Board approved guidelines. Through such management, the Company seeks to reduce the vulnerability of its operations to changes in interest rates. The Company’s actions in this regard are taken under the guidance of the Asset and Liability Committee. The Asset and Liability Committee normally meets monthly to review, among other things, the sensitivity of the Company’s assets and liabilities to interest rate changes, local and national market conditions and interest rates. In connection therewith, the Asset and Liability Committee generally reviews the Company’s liquidity, cash flow needs, composition of investments, deposits, borrowings and capital position.
The objective of interest rate risk management is to control the effects that interest rate fluctuations have on net interest income and on the net present value of the Company’s earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Management and the Board are responsible for managing interest rate risk and employing risk management policies that monitor and limit this exposure. Interest rate risk is measured using net interest income simulation and asset/liability net present value sensitivity analyses. The Company uses financial modeling to measure the impact of changes in interest rates on the net interest margin and to predict market risk. Estimates are based upon numerous assumptions including the nature and timing of interest rate levels including yield curve shape, prepayments on loans and securities, deposit decay rates, pricing decisions on loans and deposits, reinvestment/replacement of asset and liability cash flows and others. These analyses provide a range of potential impacts on net interest income and portfolio equity caused by interest rate movements.

Included in the modeling are instantaneous parallel rate shift scenarios, which are utilized to establish exposure limits. These scenarios are known as “rate shocks” because all rates are modeled to change instantaneously by the indicated shock amount, rather than a gradual rate shift over a period of time that has traditionally been more realistic.

74


The Company’s interest rate risk model indicated that the Company was asset sensitive in terms of interest rate sensitivity. Based on the Company’s interest rate risk model at June 30, 2015, the table below illustrates the impact of an immediate and sustained 100 and 200 basis point increase or decrease in interest rates on net interest income.

The influence of using the forward curve as of June 30, 2015 as a basis for projecting the interest rate environment would approximate a 1.6% increase in net interest income over the next 12 months. The computations of interest rate risk shown above do not necessarily include certain actions that management may undertake to manage this risk in response to unanticipated changes in interest rates and other factors to include shifts in depositor behavior.
The interest rate environment is primarily a function of the monetary policy of the FRB. The principal tools of the FRB for implementing monetary policy are open market operations, or the purchases and sales of U.S. Treasury and federal agency securities, as well as the establishment of a short-term target rate. The FRB’s objective for open market operations has varied over the years, but the focus has gradually shifted toward attaining a specified level of the federal funds rate to achieve the long-run goals of price stability and sustainable economic growth. The federal funds rate is the basis for overnight funding and drives the short end of the yield curve. Longer maturities are influenced by the market’s expectations for economic growth and inflation, but can also be influenced by FRB purchases and sales and expectations of monetary policy going forward. The Company’s commercial loan portfolio is also impacted by fluctuations in the level of the LIBOR, as a large portion of this portfolio reprices based on this index. The decrease in the federal funds, LIBOR, and U.S. Treasury rates have resulted in compressed net interest margin for the Company, as assets have repriced more quickly than the Company’s liabilities. Although management believes that the Company is not significantly affected by changes in interest rates over an extended period of time, any continued flattening of the yield curve will exert downward pressure on the net interest margin and net interest income. The table below presents the Company’s anticipated repricing of loans and investment securities over the next four quarters.

Note: Amounts exclude the repricing of assets from prior periods, as well as nonaccrual loans and market value adjustments.
As part of its asset/liability management strategy, the Company has emphasized the origination of loans with adjustable or variable rates of interest as well as commercial and consumer loans, which typically have shorter terms than residential mortgage loans. The majority of fixed-rate, long-term residential loan originations are sold in the secondary market to avoid assumption of the interest rate risk associated with longer duration assets in the current low rate environment. As of June 30, 2015, $7.2 billion, or 51.4%, of the Company’s total loan portfolio had adjustable interest rates. IBERIABANK had no significant concentration to any single borrower or industry segment at June 30, 2015.

75


The Company’s strategy with respect to liabilities in recent periods has been to emphasize transaction accounts, particularly non-interest or low interest-bearing transaction accounts, which are significantly less sensitive to changes in interest rates. At June 30, 2015, 85% of the Company’s deposits were in transaction and limited-transaction accounts, compared to 83% at December 31, 2014. Non-interest-bearing transaction accounts were 25.8% and 25.5% of total deposits at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively.
Much of the liquidity increase experienced in the past several years has been due to a significant increase in non-interest-bearing demand deposits. The behavior of non-interest-bearing deposits and other types of demand deposits is one of the most important assumptions used in determining the interest rate and liquidity risk positions. A loss of these deposits in the future would reduce the asset sensitivity of the Company’s balance sheet as interest-bearing funds would most likely be increased to offset the loss of this favorable funding source.

Note: Amounts exclude the repricing of liabilities from prior periods.
As part of an overall interest rate risk management strategy, derivative instruments may also be used as an efficient way to modify the repricing or maturity characteristics of on-balance sheet assets and liabilities. Management may from time to time engage in interest rate swaps to effectively manage interest rate risk. The interest rate swaps of the Company would modify net interest sensitivity to levels deemed appropriate.
IMPACT OF INFLATION AND CHANGING PRICES
The consolidated financial statements and related financial data presented herein have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, which generally require the measurement of financial position and operating results in terms of historical dollars, without considering changes in relative purchasing power over time due to inflation. Unlike most industrial companies, the majority of the Company’s assets and liabilities are monetary in nature. As a result, interest rates generally have a more significant impact on the Company’s performance than does the effect of inflation. Although fluctuations in interest rates are neither completely predictable nor controllable, the Company regularly monitors its interest rate position and oversees its financial risk management by establishing policies and operating limits. Interest rates do not necessarily move in the same direction or in the same magnitude as the prices of goods and services, since such prices are affected by inflation to a larger extent than interest rates. Although not as critical to the banking industry as to other industries, inflationary factors may have some impact on the Company’s growth, earnings, total assets and capital levels. Management does not expect inflation to have a significant impact on the Company's financial condition or results of operations in 2015.
Non-GAAP Measures
The discussion and analysis included herein contains financial information determined by methods other than in accordance with GAAP. The Company’s management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in their analysis of the Company’s performance. These measures typically adjust GAAP performance measures to exclude the effects of the amortization of intangibles and include the tax benefit associated with revenue items that are tax-exempt, as well as adjust income available to common shareholders for certain significant activities or transactions that, in management’s opinion can distort period-to-period comparisons of the Company’s performance. Since the presentation of these GAAP performance measures and their impact differ between companies, management believes presentations of these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful supplemental information that is essential to a proper understanding of the operating results of the Company’s core businesses. These non-GAAP disclosures should not be viewed as a substitute for operating results determined in accordance with GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other companies. Reconciliations of GAAP to non-GAAP disclosures are included in the table below.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk are presented at December 31, 2014 in Part II, Item 7A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 2, 2015. Additional information at June 30, 2015 is included herein under Item 2, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
An evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2015 was carried out under the supervision, and with the participation of, the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”). Based on that evaluation, the CEO and CFO have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective in alerting them in a timely manner to material information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”).
Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed by the Company under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls are also designed with the objective of ensuring that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the CEO and the CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. Disclosure controls include review of internal controls that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that transactions are properly authorized, assets are safeguarded against unauthorized or improper use and transactions are properly recorded and reported. There was no significant change in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting during the last fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the internal control over financial reporting.
Any control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance that its objectives are achieved. The design of a control system inherently has limitations, including the controls’ cost relative to their benefits. Additionally, controls can be circumvented. No cost-effective control system can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, will be detected.
