On July 28, 2004, Heartland Financial USA, Inc. (the "Company") filed an Amendment No. 1 to Current Report on Form 8-K/A (the "First Amendment") amending the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Company on July 26, 2004 (the "Original Report"). The First Amendment was identical to the Original Report except for the correction of the information disclosed in the line item "Common shares outstanding, net of treasury" in the Consolidated Financial Highlights contained in Exhibit 99.1. The explanatory note leading into the text of the press release filed as Exhibit 99.1 to the First Amendment incorrectly indicated that certain column headings also were changed in the Consolidated Financial Highlights. Additionally, the Company discovered that the column headings in the version of the press release that was distributed were incorrect, although the column headings were correct in the version of the press release that was filed with the First Amendment.
To clarify the contents of the corrected press release, the Company is filing this Amendment No. 2 to Form 8-K. The press release attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 is correct and is identical to the press release issued with the First Amendment with the exception of the explanatory paragraphs regarding the reason for the corrected press release.
