(1)  Fully taxable equivalent ("TE") calculations include the tax benefit associated with related income sources that are tax-exempt using a rate of 21% for 2018 and a rate of 35% for 2017. 
(2)  Tangible calculations eliminate the effect of goodwill and acquisition-related intangible assets and the corresponding amortization expense on a tax-effected basis where applicable.
(3)  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.  
(4)  Non-performing loans and assets include accruing loans 90 days or more past due. Non-performing loans exclude acquired impaired loans, even if contractually past due or if the
Company does not expect to receive payment in full, as the Company is currently accreting interest income over the expected life of the loans.  
(5)  See Table 29 of Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations for GAAP to Non-GAAP reconciliations.

(7)  With the exception of end-of-period ratios, all ratios are based on average daily balances during the respective periods. 
(8)  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 earning assets.

Dear Shareholders,

The year 2018 was a great year. In fact, it was one of our best. 

We achieved our goals for the year in delivering superior earnings and 
enhanced  profitability.  Despite  competitive  headwinds  and  market 
changes,  we  delivered  above-market  loan  and  deposit  growth  with 
ever strengthening asset quality based on high-quality client selection. 

Over  the  past  several  years,  the  Company  has  made  substantial 
investments  in  our  organization  as  we  have  grown  to  become  a 
significant  regional  banking  franchise  in  the  Southeastern  United 
States.    These  investments  are  paying  dividends  as  we  continue  to 
produce  high-quality  earnings,  steady  balance  sheet  growth,  and 
increased product and services offerings, while maintaining excellent 
credit quality.

In  April  2018,  we  established  and  announced  our  2020  Strategic 
Goals, providing a framework from which to measure the Company’s 
performance over the next several years.  Improving the Company’s 
financial  results,  growing  earnings,  and  increasing  efficiencies  are 
targets  that  can  only  be  achieved  by  focusing  on  the  details  of 
everyday banking decisions. By attracting and retaining high-quality 
clients  through  best-in-class  service  in  an  efficient  operating  model, 
we  continue  to  produce  sustainable  and  profitable  growth  for  our 
business and increased value for all of our stakeholders.

Roughly one year into our goals, we are very happy to have attained 
these metrics for the full-year 2018 and for the last three consecutive 
quarters of the year. Achieving these marks was the product of hard 
work and dedication by all of our over 3,400 associates, and we know 
that the real goal is to sustain this level of excellence as we continue 
to grow our business in the future.

In  March  2018,  we  completed  our  acquisition  of  Gibraltar  Private 
Bank & Trust, Co., a $1.6 billion asset bank based in Miami, Florida.

Announced  in  October  2017,  both  the  transaction  closing  and  the 
branch  and  operating  systems  conversions  took  place  in  late  March. 
This move further solidified our position in the Southeast Florida market 
and provided not only an increase in our loan and deposit bases in the 
market, but also enhanced our wealth management platform. 

As we have made other investments in South Florida in recent years, the 
combination with Gibraltar provided us another point of leverage in an 
ever-growing and important market. The transaction itself is one of our 
most successful acquisitions to date as we have realized our financial 
targets, outperformed in terms of gaining efficiencies, and have been 
able  to  welcome  new  clients  with  excellent  credit  quality  and  future 
growth potential.

both a GAAP and Core basis. 

• Grew assets, loans, and deposits by 10%, 12%, and 11%,  
  respectively. 

• Reported GAAP and Core earnings per share increased 101% and

• Income available to common shareholders of $361 million, an increase  
  of 171% for the year. Return on average assets of 1.30% and return on  
  average tangible common equity of 16.01%. 

• Net interest income for the year was in excess of $1 billion with
  the year’s net-interest margin equal to 3.75% and cash net interest 
  margin equal to 3.48%, an increase of 11 and 15 basis points,  
  respectively. Core revenues for the year were over $1.2 billion, an over  
  20% increase for the year. 

We are pleased to continue to grow and deliver record results while not only 
maintaining,  but  improving,  our  already  stellar  asset  quality  metrics.  Our 
teams of associates are well versed in assessing portfolio risk and bring to 
each decision our conservative credit culture that is the foundation of our 
lending businesses. The Company continues to focus on growth in markets 
throughout the Southeast that we know well, have experience working in, 
and  that  provide  access  to  the  right  clients.  By  recruiting  top  talent  and 
delivering  best-in-class  service  to  our  clients,  we  are  well-positioned  to 
continue to grow our business. 

• Improved already excellent asset quality measures, ending the year with  
  NPAs/Assets of 0.55% (a 9 basis points improvement), NCOs Average  
  Loans of 0.15% (an 18 basis points improvement), and Classified Loans/ 
  Total Loans of 1.21% (an 80 basis points improvement). At year-end,  
  Classified Assets/Total Assets was less than 1%. A strong balance sheet 
  and excellent asset quality have always been strengths of our Company.

We consolidated operations and closed 38 branches, streamlined processes 
to enhance our client experience, and invested in innovative technology, such 
as new online and mobile platforms to meet clients’ increasing demands. At 
year-end 2018, we operated 191 bank branches in 10 states. 

• Revenues grew at a faster pace than expenses increased, thereby  
  increasing operating leverage and improving efficiency. Core tangible  
  efficiency ratio was 53.75% for 2018 and less than 51% in the fourth  
  quarter of 2018. 

Our capital base is strong. As we have achieved record annual earnings in 
2018 and for the last three consecutive quarters of the year, we have fortified 
our equity base while continuing to manage our capital in the best interests 
of shareholders. During the year, we increased the annual dividends paid on 
common stock from $1.46 per share in 2017 to $1.56 per share in 2018, a 7% 
increase in dividends per share and a 14% increase in total dividends paid 
year-over-year.  Our  common  dividend  payout  ratio  for  the  year  was  24% 
in 2018. We have now paid a quarterly dividend to common shareholders 
for  the  past  95  consecutive  quarters  and  have  not  suspended  or  missed 
any  dividend,  common  or  preferred,  since  our  IPO  and  initial  dividend 
declaration in 1995. 

The Company was also active repurchasing shares of our common stock in 
2018.  As the year began, stocks traded near share price highs and declined 
throughout the year as the market for most industries and banking institutions 
moved toward share price lows. We were no exception. The stock market 
- bank stocks in particular - were impacted by disruptions and uncertainties 
in the financial markets, which we believed provided an opportunity to buy 
back  shares  in  the  open  market  at  favorable  prices.  During  the  year,  we 
purchased almost two million of our common shares at a weighted average 
price of $75.46 per share, or almost $149 million in total.

• Through a combination of common dividends and share
  repurchases, we returned approximately 65% of earnings to  
  shareholders, while maintaining and exceeding our optimal capital  
  level targets.

It’s been 10 years since the start of the financial crisis. Proving out the 
value  of  a  diversified  franchise,  we  powered  through  this  challenging 
cycle with fewer issues than many peers. While some markets were hit 
early in the cycle, many continued to perform on all cylinders giving us 
the ability to continue to create value for our shareholders.

associates  to  continually  grow,  be  disciplined  in  execution,  and  deliver 
maximum value to our shareholders. 

Finally, I am so proud of the sincere and heartfelt effort our team makes to 
care for our neighbors and neighborhoods, which was demonstrated by 
the more than 15,000 hours our team invested in our communities during 
the year. We continue to fulfill our commitment to improve the lives of 
individuals,  businesses,  and  the  broader  community  through  a  record 
number of mortgage grants, community development investments, and 
community development loans. 

Throughout  our  132-year  story,  we’ve  enjoyed  many  successes  and 
weathered countless storms. Through each of those experiences, we’ve 
remained  true  to  our  brand  of  integrity  and  quality.  The  year  2018  is 
now  a  part  of  our  history  that  lays  the  groundwork  for  our  future.  Our 
story is composed of the lives of our associates, our efforts to help our 
clients succeed personally and professionally, the concern and care we 
show for our communities, and the stellar results we strive to deliver to 
our shareholders. Our story is your story. We are proud of our story of 
strength and performance, and we thank you for being a part of it.

Chairman's Letter
to Shareholders

Dear Shareholders,

On behalf of your Board of Directors, it is once again my pleasure to provide shareholders an update on your 
Company. We had a very active and successful year, growing the franchise through acquisition and organic 
means to over  $30  billion  in total  assets, further solidifying our position as a significant regional banking 
institution in the Southeast. We are very proud of our team for delivering record operating results for the 
year. 

Your Board of Directors is committed to the success of your Company. Throughout the year, we focused on 
providing guidance and oversight and analyzing industry and economic trends. We remain actively engaged 
in  establishing  performance  expectations,  setting  compensation  targets,  analyzing  risk,  reviewing  and 
approving financial budgets, and monitoring performance. The current banking environment is complex and 
ever-changing, and your Board is actively engaged in your Company’s success. 

During 2018, the Board declared and paid $87 million in total common stock dividends and $9 million in total 
dividends on our Series B and C preferred shares. We approved increases to our dividend on common stock 
for the fourth year in a row and three times during the year. For the year 2018, our common share price traded 
in a range between a high of $87.00 in late January to a low of $61.50 in late December. Over 95 million 
shares were traded throughout the year, with an average daily trading volume of almost 380,000 shares at 
a  weighted-average  price  of  $78.20  per  share.  We  ended  2018  at  $64.28  per  share,  approximately  17% 
below the start of the year. Several factors impacted our stock price that had very little to do with our core 
fundamentals,  including  slower  economic  growth  forecasts,  international  weakness  in  certain  economies, 
increased tariffs on goods and services, rising political tensions, and the longest government shutdown in 
history. 

As our share price declined to what we believed to be discounted prices, management and the Board of 
Directors took action to invest in an excellent financial opportunity and to repurchase shares of IBERIABANK 
common stock throughout the year. In May, we authorized our 10th share repurchase plan for an estimated 2% 
of outstanding common shares. As management was active in buybacks, we authorized another repurchase 
plan in November, our 11th, of up to 5% of common shares outstanding.

Your  management  team  continues  to  work  diligently  to  enhance  the  Company’s  performance,  provide 
detailed  and  transparent  communication  to  investors,  and  enhance  our  shareholders'  value.  2018  was  a 
record year in terms of financial performance at the same time the Company’s credit quality metrics improved 
significantly,  from  already  strong  levels.  High-quality  results,  a  highly  efficient  company,  and  outstanding 
credit quality metrics provide an excellent score card for our Company, capping off a terrific year. 

As always, our Board of Directors believes that our shareholders are best served by focusing on long-term 
value creation and sound management practices. Since bringing in current management in 1999, our shares 
have outperformed most peers and market indices. As we saw this year, and I mentioned earlier, short-term 
market volatility can significantly mask long-term value creation.  

|  7  | 

Since 1999, total shareholder return for our common shares, including reinvestment of dividends, is 821%, 
or  a  12%  compounded  annual  rate  of  return.  The  table  below  provides  a  comparison  of  our  Company’s

Every year I take this opportunity to recognize the 193 advisory board members who serve on our 19 advisory 
boards across our franchise. Their commitment to our Company, personal time, and valued insight help us to 
continue to serve our clients and communities well. 

I want to welcome our newest Director, Rosa Sugrañes, who joined your Board during the year.  A private 
business  owner  originally  from  Spain  and  now  a  resident  of  Miami,  Rosa  brings  extraordinary  business 
acumen, bank board experience, connectivity to South Florida, and a fresh perspective to our group.

During the year, we unexpectedly lost a very dear friend and valued Director, David Welch. David was an 
extraordinary asset to your Board of Directors and Company for 13 years.  He is so greatly missed.

Retired Director Miles Pollard also passed away during the year. Miles served on your Board of Directors from 
2003 to 2016. He was the definition of a true gentleman and astute businessman. The world will truly not be 
the same without him.

We  also  lost  three  outstanding  advisory  board  members  in  2018,  Steve  Stumpf  from  New  Orleans,  Tex 
Kilpatrick from Monroe, Louisiana, and Phil Trenary from Memphis, Tennessee. We appreciate their generous 
service to our Company.

Your Board of Directors remains dedicated to producing excellent performance and outstanding shareholder 
returns. Sound management practices, the dedication of all associates, and rigorous oversight by your Board 
continue to be the bedrock from which the Company enters 2019. We look forward to great things in the 
year to come as I, and your Board of Directors, appreciate your continued support.

Sincerely,

William H. Fenstermaker
Chairman of the Board

Boosting Success

As the Founder and President of Booster, I admire entrepreneurial and

to grow like we knew we could. That all changed when we met IBERIABANK. As
elementary school fundraising experts, we love giving schools the results they
need through a remarkable “Fun Run” experience. Having innovative bankers on
the field catapulted our business to a whole new level, ultimately raising more
money for our schools.

Entrepreneurship is Always Brewing

Schilling Distributing 
was founded in 1950 
by Herbert E. Schilling 
Sr.  The first year 
it distributed only 
Budweiser in three 
packages: 12-ounce 
cans, 12-ounce bottles, 
and quart bottles.  
Anheuser-Busch was 
their only supplier.   
In 2019, Schilling 
Distributing has 67 
suppliers (36 beer, 16 
non-alcoholic, and 15 
wine and spirits).  The 
Company distributes 
over 1,200 packages 
from those suppliers.

Company

It has been an absolute pleasure to bank at IBERIABANK from the first day, eight years ago, when we switched banks.  
The IBERIA team’s "Can-Do attitude and desire to please," are a joy to work with.  They were able to address the daily 
needs of our beverage distribution business with no problems.  The administrative employees at Schilling have nothing 
but praise for IBERIABANK!

I have been impressed with their ability to help me address all my latest and diverse business ventures.  The diversification 
includes iTA/Idealease which sells, rents, and leases trucks along with parts and service in Lafayette, Lake Charles, Slidell, 
Harahan and Houma; and Acadiana Waste Services which is a garbage disposal company serving eight parishes in 
Acadiana and in Beaumont, Texas and surrounding communities.

I truly appreciate the job the IBERIABANK team has done to help Schilling Distributing grow our Lafayette facility to over 
170,000 square feet with annual sales of nearly four million cases.  Coupled with that is their assistance in our successful 
diversification into other businesses.  I consider them a real partner!

Healthy Partnership

Around eight years ago, our company had an acquisition opportunity in the 
Carolinas and while several other banks looked at the opportunity IBERIABANK 
was the one bank that provided us with the best solution.  Because of their hard 
work and dedication we were able to make the acquisition and grow our company 
to more than double in size. Since then we have moved all of our banking needs 
to IBERIABANK and taken advantage of all the services they provide their clients.  
Banking is more than just numbers and rates, it is relationships and you get that 
with IBERIABANK.

Expanding Opportunities

Carrabba’s is a 
family-owned and operated 
neighborhood restaurant 
that serves Italian-
American food. In 1986, 
Johnny opened The Original 
Carrabba’s on Kirby Drive 
in Houston, TX, and a 
second location in 1988. In 
1993, Outback Steakhouse 
created a joint venture 
partnership opening over 
250 Carrabba’s Italian Grill 
Restaurants nationwide. 
Johnny and his family 
continue to own and operate 
the two original Carrabba’s 
locations. In 2012, the 
family’s new fast-casual 
concept, Mia’s Table, 
opened one block behind 
the Original Carrabba’s. In 
2014, Grace’s, named after 
Johnny’s grandmother, 
Grace Mandola, became the 
fourth family-owned and 
operated restaurant for 
the Carrabba family. Mia’s 
Table has two locations 
with more on the horizon. 

Johnny Carrabba
Family of
Restaurants

Watching my grandfather and father run a family-owned grocery store in the East End of Houston was an experience 
that has lasted me a lifetime. My father was the butcher, and my grandmother and mother ran the cash register. 
One thing I remember distinctly was the personal relationship my family had with their banker. They were partners 
and eager for the success of the business. As my father took over the grocery store, his relationship with the banker 
continued like old friends. Years later, here I am with my own family-owned and operated neighborhood restaurant. 
That relationship I observed as a young man has remained in my business and with my bank. Several years later, 
IBERIABANK is my bank. My bankers are my bankers because of the bond and trust they have built with me.

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. The Company’s actual strategies and results in future periods may differ materially from those currently

Forward-looking statements represent management’s beliefs, based upon information available at the time the statements are made, 
with regard to the matters addressed; they are not guarantees of future performance.  Forward-looking statements are subject to 
numerous assumptions, risks and uncertainties that change over time and could cause actual results or financial condition to differ 
materially from those expressed in or implied by such statements.  Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences 
include, but are not limited to: the level of market volatility, our ability to execute our growth strategy, including the availability 
of future bank acquisition opportunities, our ability to execute on our revenue and efficiency improvement initiatives, unanticipated 
delays, losses, business disruptions and diversion of management time related to the completion and integration of mergers and 
acquisitions, refinements to purchase accounting adjustments for acquired businesses and assets and assumed liabilities in these 
transactions, adjustments of fair values of acquired assets and assumed liabilities and of deferred taxes in acquisitions, actual 
results deviating from the Company’s current estimates and assumptions of timing and amounts of cash flows, credit risk of our 
customers, effects of low energy and commodity prices, effects of residential real estate prices and levels of home sales, our ability 
to satisfy capital and liquidity standards, sufficiency of our allowance for loan losses, changes in interest rates, access to funding 
sources, reliance on the services of executive management, competition for loans, deposits and investment dollars, competition 
from competitors with greater financial resources than the Company, reputational risks and social factors, changes in government 
regulations  and  legislation,  increases  in  FDIC  insurance  assessments,  geographic  concentration  of  our  markets,  economic  or 
business conditions in our markets or nationally, rapid changes in the financial services industry, significant litigation, cyber-
security risks including dependence on our operational, technological, and organizational systems and infrastructure and those of 
third party providers of those services, hurricanes and other adverse weather events, and valuation of intangible assets. Factors 
that may cause actual results to differ materially from these forward-looking statements are discussed in the Company’s Annual

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 the Company as of and for the period ended December 31, 2018. This discussion should be read in 
conjunction with the consolidated financial statements, accompanying footnotes and supplemental financial data included 
herein. Certain amounts in prior year presentations have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

EXECUTIVE OVERVIEW

The Company is a $30.8 billion financial holding company with locations in Louisiana, Arkansas, Tennessee, Alabama, Texas, 
Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, Mississippi, Missouri, and New York offering commercial, private banking, 
consumer, small business, wealth and trust management, retail brokerage, mortgage, and title insurance services.

Highlights of the Company's performance for the year ended December 31, 2018 are discussed below and compared to the 
results for the year ended December 31, 2017. Refer to subsequent sections of Management's Discussion and Analysis for 
further detail. Results in 2018 were impacted by U.S. tax reform changes under the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the "Tax Act"), 
which was signed into law on December 22, 2017, and the acquisitions of Sabadell United on July 31, 2017 and Gibraltar on 
March 23, 2018.

2018 Summary Financial Results

•

•

•

•

•

•

•

•

Net income available to common shareholders for the year ended December 31, 2018 totaled $361.2 million, or $6.46
diluted EPS, compared to $133.3 million, or $2.59 diluted EPS, in 2017. Non-GAAP core EPS, which excludes
merger-related costs and other items disclosed in Table 29 - Non-GAAP Measures, was $6.69 in 2018 compared to
$4.47 in 2017.

Net interest income was $1.0 billion for 2018, a $204.4 million, or 25%, increase compared to 2017. The increase in
net interest income was primarily volume-related due to the Sabadell United and Gibraltar acquisitions, and was also
impacted by higher earning asset yields offset by higher funding costs, ultimately resulting in an 11 basis point
increase to net interest margin on a tax-equivalent basis to 3.75% from 3.64%.

Non-interest income in 2018 decreased $49.6 million, or 25%, to $152.6 million, primarily driven by $49.9 million in
losses on sales of available-for-sale securities and a decrease in mortgage income. This was partially offset by
increases in certain of the Company's fee income businesses.

Non-interest expense increased $56.5 million, or 8%, to $722.9 million at December 31, 2018, largely due to
acquisition-related increases in salaries and employee benefits expense, branch consolidation and closure expenses,
amortization of intangibles, net occupancy and equipment expenses, and other merger and conversion-related
expenses.

The Company recorded a provision for credit losses of $40.4 million for 2018, an $11.3 million, or 22%, decrease
from the provision recorded in 2017, primarily driven by an improvement in asset quality in 2018.

Income tax expense decreased $118.2 million, or 79%, to $32.3 million in 2018. Income tax expense was impacted by
a $65.3 million non-core, permanent net tax benefit recorded in the fourth quarter of 2018 as a result of deductions
claimed on the Company's 2017 income tax returns, partially offset by the repricing of its current and deferred income
tax position associated with the Tax Act. The reduction in income tax expense in 2018 was also impacted by $51.0
million in income tax expense recorded in the prior year related to the net impact of the remeasurement of deferred
taxes as a result of the Tax Act.

Total loans increased $2.4 billion, or 12%, in 2018, driven by $1.4 billion of loans acquired from Gibraltar and organic
growth.

Total deposits increased $2.3 billion, or 11%, in 2018, driven by $1.1 billion of deposits acquired from Gibraltar,
organic growth, and brokered deposit issuances.

2(cid:19)

•

•

Asset quality and credit metrics improved as non-performing loans and leases to total loans and leases decreased to
0.62% at December 31, 2018, from 0.76% at December 31, 2017.  Classified assets to total assets were 0.98% at the
end of 2018 compared to 1.54% one year ago.

Shareholders' equity increased $359.5 million, or 10%, from year-end 2017, primarily from undistributed income to
common shareholders of $282.9 million, as well as the Company's issuance of 2.8 million shares of common stock in
March 2018 as part of consideration for the Gibraltar acquisition. This increase was partially offset by the repurchase
of 1,972,500 common shares, at a weighted average price of $75.46 per common share.

On December 22, 2017, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the" Tax Act") was signed into law.  Under ASC 740, the effects of changes 
in tax rates and laws are recognized in the period in which the new legislation is enacted.  In the case of US federal income 
taxes, the enactment date is the date the bill becomes law (i.e, upon presidential signature). Among other provisions, the most 
significant to the Company is the reduction of the corporate income tax rate from 35% to 21%.  With respect to the legislation, 
the Company recognized a provisional one-time increase in tax expense of $51.0 million as of December 31, 2017 due to a 
remeasurement of deferred tax assets and liabilities resulting from the decrease in the corporate income tax rate.  During the 
year ended December 31, 2018 the Company recognized a total adjustment of $6.6 million in income tax expense due to write 
down of deferred tax assets associated with the finalization of the accounting for the Sabadell United acquisition and the related 
impact of the Tax Act on those adjustments. This adjustment increased the year-to-date effective tax rate by 1.6% from 6.4% to 
8.0%. Consistent with the guidance provided under ASC 740, the Company recorded impacts from enactment of the Tax Act in 
the fourth quarter of 2017 subject to Staff Accounting Bulletin 118, Income Tax Accounting Implications of the Tax Cuts and 
Jobs Act ("SAB 118"). SAB 118 provided a measurement period not to extend beyond one year of the enactment date to adjust 
the accounting for certain elements of the tax reform. The Company filed its 2017 federal and state tax returns in the fourth 
quarter of 2018, after which it was able to finalize deferred tax balances subject to the remeasurement under the Tax Act. The 
accounting for the tax effects of the Tax Act was complete as of December 22, 2018.

Additionally, a $65.3 million non-core, permanent net tax benefit was recorded in the fourth quarter of 2018. This benefit was a 
result of deductions claimed on the Company's 2017 income tax returns from the repricing of its current and deferred income 
tax position associated with the Tax Act.

Capital Transactions

On March 23, 2018, the Company completed the acquisition of Gibraltar. Under the terms of the Agreement and Plan of 
Merger, Gibraltar common shareholders received 1.9749 shares of IBERIABANK Corporation common stock for each 
outstanding share of Gibraltar common stock. Based on the Company's closing common stock price of $77.00 per share on the 
acquisition date, the aggregate value of the acquisition consideration paid at the time of closing was approximately $214.7 
million.

(cid:21)(cid:21)

On May 9, 2018, the Company completed its then current stock repurchase program, which commenced in May 2016, under 
which the Company repurchased a total of 537,506 shares at an average price per share of $68.94. On May 10, 2018, the Board 
of Directors of the Company authorized the repurchase of up to 1,137,500 shares of the Company's outstanding common stock, 
which was subsequently completed on November 5, 2018. During that time, the Company repurchased 1,137,500 shares of its 
common stock at a weighted average price of $77.54 per share. On November 5, 2018, the Board of Directors authorized a new 
repurchase plan of up to 2,765,000 shares of the Company's common stock. This repurchase authorization equated to 
approximately 5% of total common shares outstanding. Stock repurchases under this program will be made from time to time 
on the open market or in privately negotiated transactions at the discretion of the management of the Company. The timing of 
these repurchases will depend on market conditions and other requirements. The Company currently anticipates the share 
repurchase program will extend over a two-year time frame, or earlier if the shares have been repurchased.  At December 31, 
2018, there were approximately 2,265,000 remaining shares that may be repurchased under the current Board-approved plan.

During the fourth quarter of 2018, the Company repurchased 1,209,290 common shares, at a weighted average price of $72.61 
per common share, of which 709,290 were repurchased under the completed Board-authorized plan and 500,000 were 
repurchased under the current Board-authorized plan.

APPLICATION OF CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

In preparing the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes, management is required to apply significant 
judgment to various accounting, reporting, and disclosure matters. The accounting principles and methods used by the 
Company conform to GAAP and general banking accounting practices. The estimates and assumptions most significant to the 
Company are summarized in the following discussion and are further analyzed in the notes to the consolidated financial 
statements.

Accounting for Acquired Impaired Loans

The Company accounts for its acquisitions using the acquisition method of accounting. Accordingly, all acquired loans are 
recorded at fair value on the acquisition date. No ACL related to the acquired loans is recorded on the acquisition date, as the 
fair value of the loans acquired incorporates assumptions regarding credit risk. The fair value measurements include estimates 
related to market interest rates and projections of future cash flows that incorporate expectations of prepayments and the 
amount and timing of principal, interest and other cash flows, as well as any shortfalls thereof.

At the time of acquisition, all acquired loans are evaluated for impairment. Acquired loans, including all covered loans, for 
which at the time of acquisition the loan reflects credit deterioration since origination to the extent that it is probable that the 
Company will be unable to collect all the contractually required payments are classified as purchased impaired loans (“acquired 
impaired loans”). All other acquired loans are classified as purchased non-impaired loans (“acquired non-impaired loans”).  

Allowance for Credit Losses

The allowance for credit losses has two components, the allowance for loan losses (contra asset) and the reserve for unfunded 
commitments (liability). Further, the allowance for loan losses consists of (i) probable incurred credit losses for legacy and 
acquired non-impaired loans and (ii) expected losses on acquired impaired loans.

Allowances for Legacy and Acquired Non-Impaired Loans

The legacy and acquired non-impaired ACL, which represent management’s estimate of probable losses inherent in the 
Company’s legacy and acquired non-impaired loan portfolios, involve a high degree of judgment and complexity. The 
Company’s policy is to establish reserves through provisions for credit losses in the consolidated statements of comprehensive 
income for estimated losses on delinquent and other problem loans, as well as loans which have not yet explicitly exhibited 
factors indicating credit weakness, when it is determined that losses have been incurred on such loans. Management’s 
determination of the appropriateness of the legacy and acquired non-impaired ACL is based on various factors requiring 
judgments and estimates, including management’s evaluation of the credit quality of the portfolio (determined through the 
assignment of risk ratings, assessments of past due status, and scores from credit agencies), historical loss experience, current 
economic conditions, the volume and type of lending conducted by the Company, composition of the portfolio, the amount of 
the Company’s classified assets, seasoning of the loan portfolio, value of collateral, the ability to monetize guarantor support 
and other relevant factors. Estimates in which management exercises significant judgment are the assessments of risk ratings, 
collateral values, projected principal and interest cash flows, guarantor support on the Company’s commercial loan portfolio, 
and the application of qualitative adjustments to the quantitative measurements across all portfolios. Other changes in estimates 
included in the estimation of the ACL may also have a significant impact on the consolidated financial statements. For further 
discussion of the ACL, see Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, and Note 6, Allowance for Credit Losses, to 
the consolidated financial statements.

Allowance for Acquired Impaired Loans

Over the life of the acquired impaired loans, the Company continues to estimate the amount and timing of cash flows expected 
to be collected on either individual loans or on pools of loans sharing common risk characteristics. These expected cash flow 
estimates are updated for new information on a quarterly basis. Once cash flow estimates are updated, the Company evaluates 
whether the present value of these cash flows, as determined using effective interest rates, have changed. If the expected cash 
flows have decreased, the Company recognizes a provision for credit losses in its consolidated statement of comprehensive 
income. If the cash flows expected to be collected have increased, the Company adjusts the amount of accretable yield 
recognized on a prospective basis over the respective loan’s or pool’s remaining life.

(cid:21)(cid:25)

Valuation of Goodwill, Intangible Assets and Other Purchase Accounting Adjustments

As previously mentioned, the Company accounts for acquisitions using the acquisition method of accounting. Under this 
method, the Company records the assets acquired, including identified intangible assets, and liabilities assumed, at their 
respective fair values, which in many instances involves estimates based on third party valuations, such as appraisals, or 
internal valuations based on discounted cash flow analyses or other valuation techniques. The determination of the useful lives 
as well as the appropriate amortization method of intangible assets is subjective. Any excess of consideration paid in the 
acquisition over the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill.

As discussed in Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, to the consolidated financial statements, goodwill is not 
amortized, but is assessed for potential impairment at the reporting unit level on an annual basis, as of October 1st, or whenever 
events or changes in circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its 
respective carrying amount. As part of its testing, the Company may elect to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether 
it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If the results of the qualitative 
assessment indicate that more likely than not a reporting unit’s fair value is less than its carrying amount, the Company 
determines the fair value of the respective reporting unit (through the application of various quantitative valuation 
methodologies) relative to its carrying amount to determine whether quantitative indicators of potential impairment are present 
(i.e., Step 1). The Company may also elect to bypass the qualitative assessment and begin with Step 1. 

Effective September 30, 2018, the Company elected to early adopt FASB ASU No. 2017-04, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other 
(ASC 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment, which simplifies how an entity is required to test goodwill for 
impairment by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test.  Therefore, if the results of Step 1 indicate that the fair 
value of the reporting unit is below its carrying amount (including goodwill), the Company will recognize a goodwill 
impairment loss for the excess of the reporting unit’s carrying amount over its fair value, limited to the total amount of 
goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. 

As a result of the annual goodwill evaluation, the Company concluded goodwill was not impaired as of October 1, 2018. 
Further, no events or changes in circumstances between October 1, 2018 and December 31, 2018 indicated that it was more 
likely than not the fair value of any reporting unit had been reduced below its carrying value.

Based on the testing performed in 2018 and 2017, management concluded that for the IBERIABANK, Mortgage, and LTC 
reporting units, goodwill was not impaired at any time during those periods.

Goodwill impairment evaluations require management to utilize significant judgments and assumptions including, but not 
limited to, the general economic environment and banking industry, reporting unit future performance (i.e., forecasts), events or 
circumstances affecting a respective reporting unit (e.g., interest rate environment), and changes in the Company stock price, 
amongst other relevant factors. Management’s judgments and assumptions are based on the best information available at the 
time. Results could vary in subsequent reporting periods if conditions differ substantially from the assumptions utilized in 
completing the evaluations.

For additional information on goodwill and intangible assets, see Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, and 
Note 9, Goodwill and Other Acquired Intangible Assets, to the consolidated financial statements.  For additional information on 
the Company’s adoption of ASU No. 2017-04, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (ASC 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill 
Impairment, see Note 2, Recent Accounting Pronouncements, to the consolidated financial statements.

Income Taxes

In the ordinary course of business, we conduct transactions in various taxing jurisdictions (Federal, state, and local) that are 
subject to complex income tax laws and regulations, which may differ by jurisdiction. The Company is often required to 
exercise significant judgment regarding the interpretation of these tax laws and regulations, in which the Company’s anticipated 
and actual liability could significantly vary based upon the taxing authority’s interpretation. Adjustments to current, accrued, or 
deferred taxes may occur due to modifications in tax rates, newly enacted laws, resolution of items with taxing authorities, 
alterations to interpretative statutory, judicial, and regulatory guidance that affect the Company’s tax positions, methods or 
elections changes, or other facts and circumstances.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The Company reported net income available to common shareholders of $361.2 million, $133.3 million, and $178.8 million for 
the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017, and 2016, respectively. EPS on a diluted basis was $6.46 for 2018, $2.59 for 2017, 
and $4.30 for 2016.

The following discussion provides additional information on the Company’s operating results for the years ended December 31, 
2018, 2017, and 2016, segregated by major income statement captions.

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 largest driver of 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 3.40%, 3.42%, and 3.40%, during the years ended December 31, 
2018, 2017, and 2016, respectively. The Company’s net interest margin on a taxable equivalent basis, which is net interest 
income (TE) as a percentage of average earning assets, was 3.75%, 3.64%, and 3.56%, respectively, for the same periods.

(cid:21)(cid:27)

The following table sets 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 of these adjustments is included in non-earning assets.

Total loans include non-accrual loans for all periods presented. Interest income in Table 4 above excludes approximately
$9.3 million, $9.5 million, and $11.9 million, in interest income that would have been recorded in 2018, 2017, and 2016,
respectively, if non-accrual loans (excluding acquired impaired loans) had been current in accordance with their
contractual terms.
Interest income includes loan fees of $3.5 million, $3.0 million, and $2.9 million for the years ended December 31, 2018,
2017, and 2016, respectively.
Taxable equivalent yields are calculated using a rate of 21% for 2018 and a rate of 35% for prior years, which
approximates the marginal tax rate.

(cid:21)(cid:28)

(4)  Balances exclude unrealized gain or loss on securities available for sale and the impact of trade date accounting.

Total deposit costs for the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017, and 2016 were 0.70%, 0.42%, and 0.32%, respectively.

2018 vs. 2017

Net interest income increased $204.4 million, or 25%, to $1.0 billion in 2018 when compared to 2017. Net interest margin on a 
tax-equivalent basis increased 11 basis points to 3.75% from 3.64% when comparing the periods.

Interest income increased $307.8 million in 2018 when compared to 2017. The primarily volume-driven increase in interest 
income is a result of a $4.7 billion, or 21%, increase in average earning assets, primarily due to acquisitions. Average loans 
increased $4.5 billion, or 26%, and average investment securities increased $0.6 billion, or 13% when compared to 2017. The 
yield on average earning assets was 40 basis points higher at 4.51% compared to 4.11% in the prior year.

Interest expense increased $103.4 million in 2018 primarily due to an $81.1 million increase in interest expense on average 
interest-bearing deposits. A 40 basis point increase in the rate paid during 2018 and growth of $2.8 billion in the average 
balance of interest-bearing deposits, primarily related to the recent acquisitions, drove the increase in interest expense. In 
addition, interest expense on the Company’s borrowings increased $22.3 million in 2018 as a result of an increase in average 
short-term borrowings of $146.3 million and an increase in average long-term debt of $537.7 million. The cost of average 
interest-bearing liabilities rose 42 basis points to 111 basis points compared to 69 basis points in the prior year.

The increase in both earning asset yields and funding costs were impacted by five FOMC interest rate increases of 25 basis 
points each from December 2017 through December 2018. 

2017 vs. 2016

Net interest income increased $159.6 million, or 25%, to $0.8 billion in 2017 when compared to 2016. Net interest margin on a 
tax-equivalent basis increased 8 basis points to 3.64% from 3.56% when comparing the periods.

Interest income increased $196.8 million in 2017 when compared to 2016. This increase was primarily volume-related as a 
result of the Sabadell United acquisition. Average loans increased $2.5 billion and average investment securities increased $1.4 
billion when compared to 2016. The declining balance of the FDIC loss share receivable and the elimination of the negative 
yield related to the amortization expense also contributed to a $16.0 million increase in interest income. The Company 
terminated all FDIC loss share receivables in December of 2016 before acquiring an insignificant amount from Sabadell United 
on July 31, 2017. The yield on average earning assets was 18 basis points higher at 4.11% compared to 3.93% in the prior year.

Interest expense on average interest-bearing liabilities increased $37.2 million in 2017 primarily due to a $28.3 million increase 
in interest expense on average interest-bearing deposits. Growth of $1.9 billion in the average balance of interest-bearing 
deposits, primarily related to the Sabadell United acquisition, and a 15 basis point increase in the rate paid during 2017 drove 
the decrease in interest expense on average interest-bearing deposits. In addition, interest expense on the Company’s 
borrowings increased $9.0 million in 2017 as a result of an increase in average short-term borrowings of $291.7 million and an 
increase in average long-term debt of $238.1 million. The cost of average interest-bearing liabilities rose 16 basis points to 69 
basis points compared to 53 basis points in the prior year.

The following table displays the dollar amount of changes in interest income and interest expense for major components of 
earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. The table distinguishes between (i) changes attributable to volume (changes in 
average volume between periods times the average yield/rate for the two periods), (ii) changes attributable to rate (changes in 
average rate between periods times the average volume for the two periods), and (iii) total increase (decrease). Changes 
attributable to both volume and rate are allocated ratably between the volume and rate categories.

Provision for Credit Losses

The provision for credit losses represents the expense necessary to maintain the ACL at a level that in management's judgment 
is appropriate to absorb probable losses inherent in the portfolio at the balance sheet date.  

2018 vs. 2017

The Company recorded a provision for credit losses of $40.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2018, an $11.3 million, 
or 22% decrease from the provision recorded for the same period of 2017. The decrease in the Company’s provision for credit 
losses in 2018 was largely due to an improvement in asset quality, as both non-performing loans and classified loans as a 
percentage of total loans declined when compared to 2017. In addition, net charge-offs were lower than in 2017. The 
Company's provision in 2018 was also limited by asset resolutions and cash flow events on acquired loans that reduced the 
required ALLL for that portfolio. The Company's provision for credit losses covered 124% of net charge-offs in 2018 compared 
to 93% coverage in 2017.   

2017 vs. 2016

The Company's provision for credit losses of $51.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2017 was $10.2 million higher 
than the provision recorded for the same period of 2016. This increase was largely the result of an elevated level of charge-offs, 
primarily from energy-related credits, as well as legacy loan growth, but was favorably impacted by lower reserves on impaired 
loans. Net charge-offs were $22.1 million higher in 2017 than 2016. 

(cid:22)(cid:20)

Refer to the "Asset Quality" section of MD&A and Note 6, Allowance for Credit Losses, to the consolidated financial 
statements for additional information.

Non-interest Income

The Company’s operating results for the year ended December 31, 2018 included non-interest income of $152.6 million 
compared to $202.1 million and $227.7 million for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The decrease in 
non-interest income in 2018 was primarily driven by losses on sales of available for sale securities. Non-interest income as a 
percentage of total gross revenue (defined as total interest and non-interest income) was 11% in 2018, 18% in 2017, and 24% in 
2016.

Non-interest income decreased $49.6 million in 2018 when compared to 2017. This decrease was primarily driven by $49.9 
million in losses on sales of available for sale securities. The losses were primarily the result of the Company's restructuring of 
its investment portfolio during the fourth quarter of 2018. The Company sold $1.0 billion of its securities at a loss and 
subsequently purchased an additional $1.2 billion in higher yielding securities.

Non-interest income in 2018 was also impacted by a $17.1 million decrease in mortgage income. The majority of the decline in 
mortgage income was volume-related, including a $374.5 million decrease in mortgage loan originations and a $378.3 million 
decrease in sales volume. The volume-related decreases were partially due to reduced activity driven by the higher interest rate 
environment.  The Company's focus on originating mortgage loans has partially shifted with a mix of new products retained on 
the balance sheet versus sold in the secondary market in 2017 and 2018. 

The decreases in 2018 when compared to 2017 were partially offset by increases in trust department income, service charges on 
deposit accounts, and title revenue, which were primarily driven by recent acquisitions.

2017 vs. 2016

Non-interest income decreased $25.6 million in 2017 when compared to 2016. This decrease was primarily driven by a $20.3 
million decrease in mortgage income. The majority of the decline in mortgage income was volume-related, including a $615.7 
million decrease in mortgage loan originations and a $603.9 million decrease in sales volume, while reduced margins in the 
secondary market contributed to a smaller portion of the decline.  The volume-related decreases were due to the loss of 
mortgage production offices throughout the mortgage footprint, coupled with reduced activity due to higher interest rates. 
Locked pipeline volume also decreased $53 million compared to 2016. 

Non-interest income in 2017 was also impacted by a $5.2 million decrease in broker commissions, the result of lower 
investment banking income and trading and research income. Trading and research income declined due to ICP's trading and 
research desk closing in 2017. Other non-interest income decreased by $3.6 million primarily due to a $4.1 million decrease in 
customer swap commission income. 

(cid:22)(cid:21)

The decreases in 2017 when compared to 2016 were partially offset by increases in service charges on deposit accounts and 
trust department income.

Non-interest Expense

The Company’s results for 2018 included non-interest expense of $722.9 million, an increase of $56.5 million when compared 
to 2017. The increases in expenses when compared to 2017 are primarily driven by recent acquisitions. For the year, the 
Company’s efficiency ratio was 62.0%, compared to 65.9% in 2017.

Salaries and employee benefits increased $35.2 million in 2018 when compared to 2017, primarily related to associates brought 
over from the recent acquisitions, which increased compensation and related benefits expenses. In addition, merit raises, off 
cycle pay increases, severance and retention expenses, incentive expense, and restricted stock grants contributed to the increase 
in salaries and employee benefits between the periods.

Impairment of long-lived assets and other losses increased $15.5 million from 2017, primarily due to branch consolidations and 
closures in 2018. Amortization of acquisition intangibles as well as net occupancy and equipment expenses also increased from 
2017 due to recent acquisition activity. 

The increases in non-interest expense in 2018 when compared to 2017 were partially offset by a decrease of $19.8 million in 
professional services. This decrease was driven by $15.9 million of merger-related legal and professional expenses as a result 
of the Sabadell United acquisition and the $11.7 million settlement of the HUD legal matter in 2017, offset by a $4.1 million 
increase in consulting services primarily from tax-related consulting during 2018. 

2017 vs. 2016

Salaries and employee benefits increased $47.8 million in 2017 when compared to 2016. This increase was driven by a $14.0 
million increase in compensation expense related to acquired associates from Sabadell United, a $9.8 million increase in fringe 
benefits including an increase in the Company's 401(k) match, increases in legacy headcount, merit raises, off-cycle increases 
and restricted stock grants. The Company had 3,552 full-time equivalent employees at the end of 2017, an increase of 452, or 
15%, from 2016. Professional services increased $29.4 million from 2016, primarily due to the Sabadell United acquisition, as 
well as the HUD legal matter, which was settled on December 11, 2017, in the amount of $11.7 million.

(cid:22)(cid:22)

Computer services expense increased by $11.7 million when compared to 2016, due to acquisition-related computer service 
expenses as well as the implementation of new software, including more cloud-based applications. 

The increases in 2017 when compared to 2016 were offset by the $17.8 million loss incurred in December of 2016 to terminate 
loss share agreements with the FDIC ahead of their contractual maturities. 

Income Taxes

For the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017, and 2016, the Company recorded income tax expense of $32.3 million, $150.5 
million, and $85.2 million, respectively, which resulted in an effective income tax rate of 8.0% in 2018, 51.4% in 2017, and 
31.3% in 2016. Income tax expense in 2018 and 2017 was impacted by the passage of the Tax Act in December 2017.  
Excluding adjustments related to the Tax Act, the effective tax rate would have been 22.6% in 2018 and 34.0% in 2017.

2018 vs. 2017

The difference between the Company's effective tax rate in 2018 and the U.S. statutory tax rate of 21% primarily relates to a 
$65.3 million non-core, permanent net tax benefit recorded in the fourth quarter of 2018 as a result of deductions claimed on 
the Company's 2017 income tax returns, partially offset by the repricing of its current and deferred income tax position 
associated with the Tax Act.  In addition, the Company recorded a $6.6 million expense related to the finalization of accounting 
for the Sabadell United acquisition and its net impact from the remeasurement of deferred tax assets as a result of the Tax Act.  
The effective tax rate was also impacted by state income taxes (net of federal income tax benefit), tax-exempt income, non-
deductible expenses, and the recognition of tax credits. The effective tax rate may vary significantly due to fluctuations in the 
amount and source of pretax income, changes in amounts of non-deductible expenses, and timing of the recognition of tax 
credits. 

2017 vs. 2016

As discussed previously, the effective tax rate in 2017 was significantly impacted by tax reform. During 2017, the Company 
recorded $51.0 million related to the estimated net impact from the remeasurement of deferred tax assets and liabilities as a 
result of the passage of the Tax Act. The effective tax rate in 2017 was also impacted by the accrual for the HUD matter, as well 
as the non-deductible portion of merger-related expenses related to the Sabadell United acquisition. In addition, the effective 
tax rate in 2017 was impacted by our level of investment in tax credits and the increase in deductions from taxable income for 
certain incentive-based expenses (restricted stock and certain stock options) as a result of the implementation of ASU No. 
2016-09 during the first quarter of 2017. This ASU requires the Company to recognize the excess tax benefits/(shortfalls) of 
exercised or vested awards as income tax benefit/(expense) through the income statement, whereas these excess tax benefits/
(shortfalls) were previously recognized in additional paid-in-capital on the balance sheet. 

FINANCIAL CONDITION

EARNING ASSETS

The following discussion highlights the Company’s major categories of earning assets.

Loans and Leases

The Company had total loans and leases of $22.5 billion at December 31, 2018, an increase of $2.4 billion, or 12%, from 
December 31, 2017. The increase was a result of $1.4 billion acquired in the first quarter of 2018 from Gibraltar and legacy 
loan growth of $2.5 billion, partially offset by pay-downs and pay-offs on loans, primarily from prior period acquisitions.

Loan Portfolio Components

The Company believes its loan portfolio is diversified by product and geography throughout its footprint. With the Gibraltar 
acquisition, the Company added $1.4 billion of loans and expanded its presence in Southeast Florida and entered New York. 
Excluding acquired loans, loan growth in 2018 was strongest in the the Energy Group (primarily reserve-based lending),  
Corporate Asset Finance division (equipment financing business), and the New Orleans and Atlanta markets. Loans in the 
Energy Group increased $480.6  million, or 112% since December 31, 2017. The Corporate Asset Finance division, which was 
created in 2017, grew loans and leases by $234.3 million, or 87%, in 2018, while the New Orleans and Atlanta markets had 
growth of $264.5 million and $118.8 million, respectively. 

The Company’s loan to deposit ratio at December 31, 2018 and 2017 was 95% and 94%, respectively. The percentage of fixed- 
rate loans to total loans decreased from 41% at the end of 2017 to 39% at December 31, 2018. The table below sets forth the 
composition of the loan portfolio at December 31, followed by a discussion of activity by major loan type.

Commercial Loans

Total commercial loans and leases increased $1.1 billion, or 7% , from December 31, 2017. Commercial loans and leases 
decreased to 67% of the total loan portfolio at December 31, 2018 compared to 70% at December 31, 2017, primarily due to a 
mix-shift from the acquisition of a relatively large residential mortgage portfolio from Gibraltar. Unfunded commitments on
commercial loans and leases including approved loan commitments not yet funded were $6.0 billion at December 31, 2018, an
increase of $990.8 million, or 20%, when compared to the end of the prior year.

Commercial real estate loans include loans to commercial customers for medium-term financing of land and buildings or for 
land development or construction of a building. These loans are repaid from revenues through operations of the businesses, 
rents of properties, sales of properties and refinances. The Company’s underwriting standards generally provide for loan terms 
of three to seven years, with amortization schedules of generally no more than twenty-five years. Low loan-to-value ratios are 
generally maintained and usually limited to no more than 80% at the time of origination. The commercial real estate portfolio is 
comprised of approximately 13% construction loans, 25% owner-occupied loans, and 62% non-owner-occupied loans as of 
December 31, 2018, compared to 14%, 27%, and 59%, respectively, at December 31, 2017. Commercial real estate loans 
increased $450.1 million, or 5%, during 2018, primarily from $291.6 million acquired from Gibraltar.

Commercial and industrial loans and leases represent loans to commercial customers to finance general working capital needs, 
equipment purchases and leases 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 seven years, with amortization schedules of generally no more than fifteen 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 December 31, 2018, commercial and industrial loans and leases 
totaled $5.7 billion, a $602.0 million, or 12% increase, from December 31, 2017, which includes approximately $36.1 million 
in loans acquired from Gibraltar. Commercial and industrial loans and leases comprised 25% of the total portfolio at December 
31, 2018 and 26% at December 31, 2017.

The following table details the Company’s commercial loans and leases by state. Other loans include primarily equipment 
financing leases and corporate asset financing loans, which the Company does not classify by state.

Residential Mortgage Loans

Residential mortgage loans consist of loans to consumers to finance a primary residence. The residential mortgage loan 
portfolio is comprised of non-conforming 1-4 family mortgage loans secured by properties located in the Company's market 
areas. The residential mortgage loan portfolio is originated under terms and documentation that permit their sale in a secondary 
market. The 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 negative amortization, option ARM, or other exotic 
mortgage loans in its portfolio. The Company makes insignificant investments in loans that would be considered sub-prime 
(e.g., loans with a credit score of less than 620) in order to facilitate compliance with relevant Community Reinvestment Act 
regulations.

Total residential mortgage loans increased $1.3 billion, or 43%, compared to December 31, 2017, primarily the result of 
approximately $917.8 million in acquired Gibraltar residential mortgage loans, as well as private banking originations in 2018.

Consumer Loans

The Company offers consumer loans in order to provide a full range of retail financial services to customers in the communities 
in which it operates. The Company originates substantially all of its consumer loans in its primary market areas. At December 
31, 2018, $3.0 billion, or 14%, of the total loan portfolio was comprised of consumer loans, compared to $2.9 billion, or 15%, 
at the end of 2017. 

The majority of the consumer loan portfolio is comprised of home equity loans. Home equity lending allows customers to 
borrow against the equity in their home and is secured by a first or second mortgage on the borrower’s residence. Real estate 
market values at the time the loan is secured affect the amount of credit extended. Changes in these values may impact the 
extent of potential losses. Home equity loans increased $12.4 million during the year to $2.3 billion at December 31, 2018. 
Unfunded commitments related to home equity loans and lines were $1.0 billion at December 31, 2018, an increase of $113.4 
million versus the prior year. 

All other consumer loans, which consist of credit card loans, automobile loans and other personal loans, increased $74.4 
million, or 11%, from December 31, 2017, primarily from an increase of $122.1 million in other personal loans, $25.2 million 
of which was acquired from Gibraltar, partially offset by a decrease in indirect automobile loans, a product that is no longer 
offered. 

In order to assess the risk characteristics of the loan portfolio, the Company considers the current U.S. economic environment 
and that of its primary market areas. See Note 6, Allowance for Credit Losses, to the consolidated financial statements for 
credit quality factors by loan portfolio segment.

Additional information on the Company’s consumer loan portfolio is presented in the following tables. For the purposes of 
Table 12, unscoreable consumer loans have been included with loans with credit scores below 660. Credit scores reflect the 
most recent information available as of the dates indicated.

Loan Maturities

The following table sets forth the scheduled contractual maturities of the Company’s total loan portfolio at December 31, 2018, 
unadjusted for scheduled principal reductions, prepayments or repricing opportunities. Demand loans, loans having no stated 
schedule of repayments and no stated maturity, and overdraft loans are reported as due in one year or less. The average life of a 
loan may be substantially less than the contractual terms because of scheduled amortization and prepayments.

The Company sells 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. Loans held for sale totaled $107.7 million at December 31, 2018, a decrease of $27.2 million, or 20%, from year-
end 2017, as there were lower volumes of originations for sale from reduced activity due to higher interest rates.

In 2018, the Company originated approximately $1.5 billion in mortgage loans, a 20% decrease from $1.8 billion in 
originations in 2017.

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. Buyers generally have recourse to 
return a purchased loan to the Company under limited circumstances. See Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements for 
further discussion.

All of the Company's mortgage-backed securities were issued by government-sponsored enterprises at December 31, 2018. 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, subprime, Alt-A, sovereign debt, or second lien elements in its investment portfolio. At December 31, 2018, the 
Company's investment portfolio did not contain any securities that are directly backed by subprime or Alt-A mortgages.

During November and December of 2018, the Company restructured portions of its investment portfolio selling approximately 
$1.0 billion of securities at a pre-tax loss of approximately $49.8 million ($37.9 million after-tax) and subsequently purchased 
$1.2 billion in securities during the quarter. The incremental yield on the purchased securities was 164 basis points.

Funds generated as a result of sales and prepayments of investment securities 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 unrealized 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 estimated fair 
value of the Company’s investment securities were deemed to be other-than-temporary at December 31, 2018 and 2017. Note 4, 
Investment Securities, to the consolidated financial statements provides further information on the Company’s investment 
securities.

Asset Quality

The lending activities of the Company are governed by underwriting policies established by management and approved by the 
Board Risk Committee of the Board of Directors. Commercial risk personnel, in conjunction with senior lending personnel, 
underwrite the vast majority of commercial loans. The Company provides centralized underwriting of substantially all 
residential mortgage, small business and consumer loans. Established loan origination procedures require appropriate 
documentation, including financial data and credit reports. For loans secured by real property, the Company generally requires 
property appraisals, title insurance or a title opinion, hazard insurance, and flood insurance, where appropriate.

Loan payment performance is monitored and late charges are generally assessed on past due accounts. Delinquent and problem 
loans are administered by functional teams of specialized risk officers. Risk ratings on commercial exposures (as described 
below) are reviewed on an ongoing basis and are adjusted as necessary based on the obligor’s risk profile and debt capacity. 
The loan review department is responsible for independently assessing and validating risk ratings assigned to commercial 
exposures through a periodic sampling process. All other loans are also subject to loan reviews through a similar periodic 
sampling process. 

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. The Company exercises judgment in determining the 
risk classification of its commercial loans.

(cid:23)(cid:19)

Commercial loans are placed on non-accrual status when any of the following occur: 1) the loan is maintained on a cash basis 
because of deterioration in the financial condition of the borrower; 2) collection of the full contractual amount of principal or 
interest is not expected (even if the loan is currently paying as agreed);  or 3) when principal or interest has been in default for a 
period of 90 days or more, unless the loan is both well secured and in the process of collection. Factors considered in 
determining the collection of the full contractual amount of principal or interest include assessment of the borrower’s cash flow, 
valuation of underlying collateral, and the ability and willingness of guarantors to provide credit support. Certain commercial 
loans are also placed on non-accrual status when payment is not past due and full payment of principal and interest is expected, 
but we have doubt about the borrower’s ability to comply with existing repayment terms. Consideration will be given to placing 
a loan on non-accrual due to the deterioration of the debtor’s repayment ability, the repayment of the loan becoming dependent 
on the liquidation of collateral, an existing collateral deficiency, the loan being classified as "doubtful" or "loss", the client 
filing for bankruptcy, and/or foreclosure being initiated. Regarding all classes within the C&I and CRE portfolios, the 
determination of a borrower’s ability to make the required principal and interest payments is based on an examination of the 
borrower’s current financial statements, industry, management capabilities, and other qualitative factors.

When a loan is placed on non-accrual status, the accrual of interest income ceases and accrued but unpaid interest is generally 
reversed against interest income.

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 
costs to sell. Closed bank branches are also classified as OREO and recorded at the lower of cost or market value.

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. See Note 1, 
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, to the consolidated financial statements for further information.

Non-performing Assets

The Company defines non-performing assets as non-accrual loans, accruing loans more than 90 days past due, OREO, and 
foreclosed property. Management continually monitors loans and transfers loans to non-accrual status when warranted.

The Company accounts for loans currently or 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 "acquired impaired loans". Application of ASC Topic 310-30 results in significant accounting differences, 
compared to loans originated or acquired by the Company that are not accounted for under ASC 310-30. See Note 1, Summary 
of Significant Accounting Policies, to the consolidated financial statements for further details.

Due to the significant difference in accounting for acquired impaired loans, the Company believes inclusion of these loans in 
certain asset quality ratios that reflect non-performing assets in the numerator or denominator (or both) results in significant 
distortion to these ratios. In addition, because loan level charge-offs related to acquired 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 impaired 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 acquired impaired loan accounting. The Company believes that the presentation 
of certain asset quality measures excluding acquired 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 acquired impaired 
loans, as indicated within each table, and related amounts.

Performing troubled debt restructurings for December 31, 2018, 2017, 2016, 2015 and 2014 exclude $61.5 million, $68.5
million, $138.9 million, $23.4 million, and $2.2 million, respectively, in troubled debt restructurings that meet non-
performing asset criteria.

(4)  Non-performing loans exclude acquired impaired loans, even if contractually past due or if the Company does not expect
to receive payment in full, as the Company is currently accreting interest income over the expected life of the loans.

Total non-performing assets decreased $9.1 million, or 5%, compared to December 31, 2017, driven by a decrease in non-
performing loans and leases of $13.0 million, or 9%, offset by a $3.9 million, or 15%, increase in OREO and foreclosed 
property. 

The decrease in non-performing loans and leases was driven by decreases in both non-accrual loans and leases and accruing 
loans and leases past due more than 90 days. A decrease in commercial non-performing loans was partially offset by an 
increase in mortgage non-performing loans, which was a result of a larger mortgage loan portfolio after the Gibraltar 
acquisition and a limited number of loans moving to non-accrual. The decrease in commercial non-accrual loans was primarily 
related to payments and charge-offs of non-accrual loans since December 31, 2017. Non-performing loans were 0.62% of total 
loans at December 31, 2018, 14 basis points lower than at December 31, 2017. Total non-performing assets were 0.55% of total 
assets at December 31, 2018, 9 basis points lower than December 31, 2017. Including TDRs that are in compliance with their 
modified terms, total non-performing assets and TDRs decreased $9.6 million during 2018. 

The increase in OREO and foreclosed property from 2017 was primarily the result of an increase of $4.4 million in former 
bank properties as closed branches were moved out of service and into former bank properties. The increase was partially offset 
by the sale of OREO properties during the year.  

(cid:23)(cid:21)

At December 31, 2018, the Company had $154.4 million of commercial assets classified as substandard, $27.7 million of 
commercial assets classified as doubtful, and no commercial assets classified as loss. Accordingly, the aggregate of the 
Company’s classified commercial assets was 0.59% of total assets and 1.20% of total commercial loans at December 31, 2018. 
At December 31, 2017, classified commercial assets totaled $298.5 million, or 1.07% of total assets, and 2.12% of total 
commercial loans. 

In addition to the problem loans described above, there were $157.2 million of commercial loans classified as special mention 
at December 31, 2018, 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 at December 31, 2018 decreased $52.7 million, or 
25%, from December 31, 2017, primarily from upgrades to a limited number of customer relationships during 2018 as overall 
asset quality improved. As a percentage of total commercial loans, special mention commercial loans decreased 45 basis points 
from December 31, 2017 to 1.04% at the end of 2018.  

Past Due and Non-accrual Loans

Past due status is based on the contractual terms of loans. At December 31, 2018, total loans past due, including non-accrual 
loans, were 0.87% of total loans, a decrease of 20 basis points from December 31, 2017. Additional information on past due 
loans is presented in the following table.

Past due and non-accrual loan amounts exclude acquired impaired loans, even if contractually past due or if the Company
does not expect to receive payment in full, as the Company is currently accreting interest income over the expected life of
the loans.

Total past due and non-accrual loans decreased $17.4 million from December 31, 2017 to $196.6 million at December 31, 
2018. The change was due to both a $9.2 million decrease in accruing past due loans and a decrease of $8.2 million in non-
accrual loans. Of the total accruing past due loans, 96% were past due less than 60 days at December 31, 2018 compared to 
90% at year-end 2017. 

Allowance for Credit Losses

The allowance for credit losses represents management’s best estimate of probable credit losses inherent at the balance sheet 
date. Determination of the allowance for credit losses involves a high degree of complexity and requires significant judgment. 
Several factors are taken into consideration in the determination of the overall allowance for credit losses. Based on facts and 
circumstances available, management of the Company believes that the allowance for credit losses was appropriate at 
December 31, 2018 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. See the “Application of Critical Accounting 
Policies and Estimates” section of this MD&A and Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, to the consolidated 
financial statements for more information.

The allowance for credit losses was $155.4 million at December 31, 2018, or 0.69% of total loans, $1.3 million higher than at 
December 31, 2017. The allowance for credit losses as a percentage of loans was 0.77% at December 31, 2017. The decrease in 
the allowance for credit losses as a percentage of loans and leases was primarily the result of the acquired Gibraltar loans, as 
those acquired loans are recorded at estimated fair value as of the acquisition date, which includes an estimate of expected 
losses in this portfolio, and as a result, no allowance for loan losses was established as of the acquisition date. Additionally, 
recoveries on acquired loans during 2018 reduced the required allowance for credit losses for that portfolio.  Also contributing 
to the decrease in the allowance for credit losses was an overall improvement in asset quality. 

Net charge-offs during 2018 were $32.6 million, or 0.15% of average loans and leases, as compared to net charge-offs of $55.9 
million, or 0.33%, for 2017. The decrease in net charge-offs was the result of a $16.9 million decrease in gross charge-offs and 
a $6.3 million increase in gross recoveries, primarily from one large commercial recovery of $3.3 million in 2018. The 
provision for credit losses covered 124% and 93% of net charge-offs in 2018 and 2017, respectively.

At December 31, 2018 and 2017, the allowance for loan and lease losses covered 101% and 93% of total non-performing loans 
and leases, respectively. 

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents totaled $690.5 million at December 31, 2018, an increase of $64.7 million, or 10%, from December 
31, 2017. The increase in cash and cash equivalents was primarily driven by deposit growth during the year, partially offset by 
additional investment security purchases and loan growth. Interest-bearing deposits at other institutions increased $89.7 
million, or 29%, to $396.3 million at December 31, 2018, partially offset by a $25.0 million decrease in cash and due from 
banks to $294.2 million at December 31, 2018. 

Short-term investments held in interest-bearing deposits at other institutions primarily 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 FRB and FHLB short-term rates. The Company’s cash 
activity is further discussed in the “Liquidity and Other Off-Balance Sheet Activities” section below.

The $154.1 million increase in other non-earning assets was primarily the result of a $124.1 million increase in net tax asset 
balances at December 31, 2018 as a result of deductions claimed on the 2017 income tax returns associated with unrealized 
losses on securities and loans and depreciation on real and personal property.

Bank-owned life insurance increased $55.6 million from the prior year primarily due to the purchase of additional BOLI 
policies. 

The $35.1 million increase in investment in tax credit entities was primarily related to the addition of $41.8 million in new 
market tax credits in 2018, partially offset by a decrease in historic tax credits.

The $15.1 million increase in FHLB stock, FRB stock, and other equity securities was primarily the result of $18.7 million in 
stock acquired from Gibraltar.

FUNDING SOURCES

Deposits, both those obtained from clients in its primary market areas and those acquired, 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 products, competitive interest rates and convenient branch office locations and service hours, as well as on-line banking 
services at www.iberiabank.com and www.virtualbank.com. Increasing core deposits is a continuing focus of the Company and 
has been accomplished through the development of client relationships and acquisitions. Short-term and long-term borrowings 
are also important funding sources for the Company. Other funding sources include subordinated debt and shareholders’ equity. 
Refer to the “Liquidity and Other Off-Balance Sheet Activities” 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 2018.

(cid:23)(cid:25)

Deposits

The Company’s ability to attract and retain customer deposits is critical to the Company’s continued success. Total deposits 
increased $2.3 billion, or 11%, to $23.8 billion at December 31, 2018, driven by $1.1 billion of deposits acquired from 
Gibraltar in March of 2018, brokered deposit issuances, and organic growth throughout the year. Deposit growth during 2018 
was strongest in the Energy Group, the Atlanta market, and the Virtual Bank division (digital banking).

The Company's deposit balances generally increase at the end of any given year due to real estate tax collections by our 
municipal customers. These balances typically remain on deposit with the Company 45 to 60 days. Given the short-term nature 
of these seasonal funds, the deposit balances tied to these seasonal flows are held in liquid investments until they are withdrawn 
from the Company. The Company currently expects these deposits to decline over the beginning of 2019.

The following table sets forth the composition of the Company’s deposits as of December 31:

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.

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 an average rate of 45.4 basis points. 

Total short-term borrowings increased $491.6 million, or 50%, from December 31, 2017, to $1.5 billion at December 31, 2018. 
An increase of $692.0 million in outstanding short-term FHLB advances was partially offset by a decrease of $200.4 million in 
repurchase transactions. The increase in short-term FHLB advances was primarily due to additional advances made during 
2018, causing the average rate on short-term borrowings to rise as new advances in 2018 had higher rates due to increases in 
short-term market rates. 

On an average basis, short-term borrowings increased $146.3 million, or 16%, from 2017, primarily due to additional short-
term FHLB advances held in 2018.

(cid:23)(cid:26)

Total short-term borrowings were 6% of total liabilities and 56% of total borrowings at December 31, 2018, compared to 4% 
and 40%, respectively, at December 31, 2017. On an average basis, short-term borrowings were 4% of total liabilities and 43% 
of total borrowings in 2018, compared to 4% and 51%, respectively, during 2017. For additional information, see Note 12, 
Short-term Borrowings, in the Notes to the consolidated financial statements.

Long-term Debt

Long-term debt decreased $329.7 million, or 22%, to $1.2 billion at December 31, 2018, which included $405.1 million in 
acquired long-term FHLB advances from Gibraltar which were immediately paid off upon acquisition during the first quarter of 
2018. The Company made an additional $1.3 billion in repayments, partially offset by $922.0 million in new long-term FHLB 
advances and $15.9 million of additional notes payable in 2018. On a period-end basis, long-term debt was 4% and 6% of total 
liabilities at December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. 

On average, long-term debt increased to $1.4 billion in 2018, $537.7 million, or 63%, higher than 2017, mainly due to higher 
levels of long-term FHLB advances held by the Company throughout 2018 as compared to 2017. Average long-term debt was 
5% of total liabilities during the current year, compared to 4% during 2017. 

Long-term debt at December 31, 2018 included $986.0 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 $60.0 million in notes payable on investments in new market tax credit entities. Interest on the junior 
subordinated debt 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. For additional information, see Note 13, Long-term Debt, in the Notes to the consolidated financial statements.

CAPITAL RESOURCES

Shareholders' equity increased $359.5 million, or 10%, during 2018, primarily from undistributed income to common 
shareholders of $282.9 million, as well as the Company's issuance of 2.8 million shares of common stock at a price of $77.00 
per common share on March 23, 2018 as part of Gibraltar acquisition. The net increase to equity from the offering was $214.7 
million. See Note 3, Acquisition Activity, to the consolidated financial statements for more information. Shareholders' equity 
was negatively impacted by the repurchase of 1,972,500 common shares, at a weighted average price of $75.46 per common 
share. Subsequent to year-end and through February 21, 2019, the Company repurchased 226,921 common shares for 
approximately $17.5 million. See Note 15, Shareholders' Equity, Capital Ratios, and Other Regulatory Matters, to the 
consolidated financial statements for more information on the Company's common stock repurchase activity. 

The Company's dividend to common shareholders was $1.56 per common share in 2018 compared to $1.46 in 2017, a 7% 
increase. On a year-to-date basis, the dividend payout ratio was 24.2% for the current year, down from 57.5% in the 
comparable period of 2017.

Regulatory Capital

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.

At December 31, 2018 and 2017, 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.

Minimum capital ratios are subject to a capital conservation buffer. In order to avoid limitations on distributions, including 
dividend payments, and certain discretionary bonus payments to executive officers, an institution must hold a capital 
conservation buffer above its minimum risk-based capital requirements. This capital conservation buffer is calculated as the 
lowest of the differences between the actual CET1 ratio, Tier 1 Risk-Based Capital Ratio, and Total Risk-Based Capital ratio 
and the corresponding minimum ratios. At December 31, 2018, the required minimum capital conservation buffer was 1.875%. 
On January 1, 2019, the capital conservation buffer increased to the fully phased-in rate of 2.50%. At December 31, 2018, the 
capital conservation buffers of the Company and IBERIABANK were 4.33% and 3.58%, respectively. Management believes 
that at December 31, 2018, the Company and IBERIABANK would have met all capital adequacy requirements on a fully 
phased-in basis if such requirements were then effective. 

Capital ratios at December 31, 2018 were favorably impacted by the increase in undistributed income available to common 
shareholders and by the common stock issued in the 2018 from the Gibraltar acquisition. Capital ratios at the end of 2018 were 
negatively impacted by the Company's repurchase of 2.0 million common stock shares during the year. 

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.

(cid:23)(cid:28)

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 availability. Certificates of deposit scheduled to mature in one year or less at December 31, 2018 totaled $2.5 
billion. Based on past experience, management believes that a significant portion of maturing deposits will remain with the 
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 $5.0 billion in the investment securities portfolio, $2.6 billion is 
unencumbered and $2.4 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 consistent 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. See Note 11, Deposits, Note 12, Short-Term 
Borrowings, and Note 13, Long-Term Debt, to the consolidated financial statements for additional discussion related to the 
Company’s funding requirements.

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 December 31, 2018, the Company had $2.2 billion of outstanding FHLB advances, $1.2 
billion of which was short-term and $986.0 million was long-term. Additional FHLB borrowing capacity available at 
December 31, 2018 amounted to $7.0 billion. At December 31, 2018, the Company also had various funding arrangements with 
the Federal discount window and commercial banks providing up to $331.2 million in the form of federal funds and other lines 
of credit. At December 31, 2018, 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 December 31, 2018 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.

In the normal course of business, the Company is a party to a number of activities that contain credit, market and operational 
risk that are not reflected in whole or in part in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Such activities include 
traditional off-balance sheet credit-related financial instruments and commitments under operating leases. The Company 
provides customers with off-balance sheet credit support through loan commitments, lines of credit, and standby letters of 
credit. Many of the commitments are expected to expire unused or be only partially used; therefore, the total amount of 
commitments does not necessarily represent future cash requirements. Based on its available liquidity and available borrowing 
capacity, the Company anticipates it will continue to have sufficient funds to meet its current commitments. 

(cid:24)(cid:19)

At December 31, 2018, the Company’s unfunded loan commitments outstanding totaled $642.2 million. At the same date, 
unused lines of credit, including credit card lines, amounted to $6.9 billion, as shown in the following table.

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 Company's 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.

(cid:24)(cid:20)

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.

The Company’s interest rate risk model indicates that the Company is asset sensitive in terms of interest rate sensitivity. Based 
on the Company’s interest rate risk model at December 31, 2018, 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 over the next twelve months.

+200

+100

-100

Net Interest Income

1.2%

(3.7)%

(10.5)%

The influence of using the forward curve as of December 31, 2018 as a basis for projecting the interest rate environment would 
approximate a 0.3% increase in net interest income over the next 12 months. The computations of interest rate risk shown 
above are performed on a static balance sheet and 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 deposit behavior.

The short-term 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 Federal Open Market Committee (“FOMC”) of the Federal Reserve Board (“FRB”), in an attempt to stimulate the overall 
economy, has, among other things, kept interest rates low through its targeted federal funds rate. In December 2016, the FOMC 
voted to raise the target federal funds rate for only the second time since 2006. The FOMC voted to raise the target federal 
funds rate multiple times in both 2017 and 2018. The FOMC has now raised rates by two-and-a-quarter percentage points since 
the financial crisis in 2008, a sign of its increased confidence in the health of the economy. While the FOMC continues to 
observe sustained economic activity, strong labor market conditions, and stable inflation, it has signaled a pause in its recent 
efforts to increase the federal funds rate. As a result, the potential for additional gradual increases in the federal funds rate in 
2019 is uncertain. Additional increases in the federal funds rate and unwind of its balance sheet could cause overall interest 
rates to rise, which may negatively impact the U.S. real estate markets and affect deposit growth and pricing. In addition, 
deflationary pressures, while possibly lowering our operating costs, could have a significant negative effect on our borrowers, 
especially our business borrowers, and the values of collateral securing loans, which could negatively affect our financial 
performance. 

The Company’s commercial loan portfolio is also impacted by fluctuations in the level of one-month LIBOR, as a large portion 
of this portfolio reprices based on this index, and to a lesser extent Prime. Our net interest income may be reduced if more 
interest-bearing liabilities than interest-earning assets reprice or mature during a period when interest rates are rising, or more 
interest-earning assets than interest-bearing liabilities reprice or mature during a period when interest rates are declining.

In July 2017, the Financial Conduct Authority (the authority that regulates LIBOR) announced it intends to stop compelling 
banks to submit rates for the calculation of LIBOR after 2021. The Alternative Reference Rates Committee ("ARRC") has 
proposed that the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") is the rate that represents best practice as the alternative to 
LIBOR for use in derivatives and other financial contracts that are currently indexed to LIBOR. ARRC has proposed a paced 
market transition plan to SOFR from LIBOR and organizations are currently working on industry wide and company specific 
transition plans as it relates to derivatives and cash markets exposed to LIBOR. The Company has material contracts that are 
indexed to LIBOR and is monitoring this activity and evaluating the related risks.

(1) Amounts include expected maturities, scheduled paydowns, expected prepayments, and loans subject to caps and floors and
exclude the repricing of assets from prior periods, as well as non-accrual loans and market value adjustments.

As part of its asset/liability management strategy, the Company has seen greater levels of loan originations with adjustable or 
variable rates of interest in commercial and consumer loan products, which typically have shorter terms than residential 
mortgage loans. The majority of fixed-rate, long-term, agency-conforming residential loans are sold in the secondary market to 
avoid bearing the interest rate risk associated with longer duration assets in the current rate environment. However, the Sabadell 
and Gibraltar acquisitions brought a considerable amount of jumbo, non-agency-conforming residential mortgage loan 
exposure onto the balance sheet, both fixed rate and variable rate in nature, which has increased the overall duration of the 
portfolio. Considering all of this, as of December 31, 2018, $13.5 billion, or 60.0%, of the Company’s total loan portfolio had 
variable interest rates, of which $2.5 billion, or 11%, had an expected repricing date beyond the next four quarters. The 
Company had no significant concentration to any single borrower or industry segment at December 31, 2018.

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 
December 31, 2018, 85% of the Company’s deposits were in transaction and limited-transaction accounts, compared to 89% at 
December 31, 2017. Non-interest-bearing transaction accounts were 28% of total deposits at December 31, 2018, compared to 
29% of total deposits at December 31, 2017.

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.

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 such derivative instruments to effectively manage interest rate risk. These derivative instruments of the Company 
would modify net interest sensitivity to levels deemed appropriate.

(cid:24)(cid:22)

IMPACT OF INFLATION OR DEFLATION AND CHANGING PRICES

The consolidated financial statements and related financial data presented herein have been prepared in accordance with GAAP, 
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 be a significant factor in 
2019.

Conversely, a period of deflation could affect our business, as well as all financial institutions and other industries. Deflation 
could lead to lower profits, higher unemployment, lower production and deterioration in overall economic conditions. In 
addition, deflation could depress economic activity, including loan demand and the ability of borrowers to repay loans, and 
consequently impair earnings through increasing the value of debt while decreasing the value of collateral for loans. 

Management believes the most significant potential impact of deflation on financial results relates to the Company's ability to 
maintain a sufficient amount of capital to cushion against future losses. However, the Company would employ certain risk 
management tools to maintain its balance sheet strength in the event a deflationary scenario were to develop.

(cid:24)(cid:23)

Non-GAAP Measures

This 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. Non-GAAP measures include, but are not limited to, descriptions such as core, tangible, and pre-tax pre-
provision. 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. Transactions that are typically excluded from non-GAAP performance 
measures include realized and unrealized gains/losses on former bank owned real estate, realized gains/losses on securities, 
income tax gains/losses, merger related charges and recoveries, litigation charges and recoveries, and debt repayment penalties. 
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 presented in Table 29, with the exception of forward-looking information. The Company is unable to 
estimate GAAP EPS guidance without unreasonable efforts due to the nature of one-time or unusual items that cannot be 
predicted, and therefore has not provided this information under Regulation S-K Item 10(e)(1)(i)(B).

using a rate of 21% for 2018 and 35% for 2017 and 2016.

(2) Tangible calculations eliminate the effect of goodwill and acquisition-related intangibles and the corresponding amortization
expense on a tax-effected basis where applicable.

(3) Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the net presentation requirements of ASU No. 2014-09,
Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which was adopted effective January 1, 2018. The adoption resulted in a reduction of
non-interest income and non-interest expense of approximately $8.9 million and $6.1 million in 2017 and 2016, respectively, and
had no impact on net income.

MANAGEMENT REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

To the Board of Directors of
IBERIABANK Corporation

The management of IBERIABANK Corporation (the “Company”) is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective 
internal control over financial reporting. The Company’s internal control system was designed to provide reasonable assurance 
to the Company’s management and Board of Directors regarding the preparation and fair presentation of the Company’s 
financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Internal control 
over financial reporting includes self-monitoring mechanisms, and actions are taken to correct deficiencies as they are 
identified.

All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations and may not prevent or detect 
misstatements in the Company’s financial statements, including the possibility of circumvention or overriding of controls. 
Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial 
statement preparation and presentation. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk 
that controls may become inadequate because of a change in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or 
procedures may deteriorate.

The Company’s management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of 
December 31, 2018. In making this assessment, it used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of 
the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013 Framework). Based on its assessment, 
management believes that, as of December 31, 2018, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective 
based on those criteria.

The Company’s independent registered public accounting firm has also issued an attestation report, which expresses an 
unqualified opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2018.

There was no change in the Company's internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fourth quarter of 2018 
that has materially affected, is likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

The Board of Directors and Shareholders 
IBERIABANK Corporation 

Opinion on Internal Control over Financial Reporting 

We have audited IBERIABANK Corporation and subsidiaries’ internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 
2018, based on criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring 
Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 framework) (the COSO criteria). In our opinion, IBERIABANK 
Corporation and subsidiaries (the Company) maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial 
reporting as of December 31, 2018, based on the COSO criteria.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States 
(PCAOB), the consolidated balance sheets of IBERIABANK Corporation and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, 
and the related consolidated statements of comprehensive income, shareholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the three 
years in the period ended December 31, 2018, and the related notes and our report dated February 22, 2019 expressed an 
unqualified opinion thereon.

Basis for Opinion

The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its 
assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting included in the accompanying Management Report 
on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control 
over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be 
independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and 
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. 

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the 
audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all 
material respects.  

Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material 
weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and 
performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a 
reasonable basis for our opinion. 

Definition and Limitations of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting 

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the 
reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally 
accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures 
that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and 
dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit 
preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and 
expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the 
company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or 
disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. 

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, 
projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate 
because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
ON THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The Board of Directors and Shareholders
IBERIABANK Corporation

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of IBERIABANK Corporation and subsidiaries (the Company) 
as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, and the related consolidated statements of comprehensive income, shareholders' equity and 
cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2018, and the related notes (collectively referred to as 
the “consolidated financial statements”).  In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material 
respects, the financial position of the Company at December 31, 2018 and 2017, and the results of its operations and its cash 
flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2018, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted 
accounting principles. 

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) 
(PCAOB), the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2018, based on criteria established in 
Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission 
(2013 framework) and our report dated February 22, 2019 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on 
the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are 
required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable 
rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. 

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the 
audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to 
error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial 
statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included 
examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included 
evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall 
presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

We have served as the Company’s auditor since 2007.

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 Defined Terms of this 
Report for terms used throughout this Report.

Reclassification

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 financial statements.

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company’s consolidated 
financial statements include all entities in which the Company has a controlling financial interest under either the voting 
interest or variable interest model. The assessment of whether or not the Company has a controlling interest (i.e., the primary 
beneficiary) in a variable interest entity (VIE) is performed on an on-going basis. All equity investments in non-consolidated 
VIEs are included in "other assets" in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The Company’s maximum exposure to loss 
as a result of its involvement with non-consolidated VIEs was approximately $230.2 million and $160.2 million at December 
31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.  The Company's maximum exposure to loss was equivalent to the carrying value of its 
investments and any related outstanding loans to the non-consolidated VIEs.

Investments in entities that are not consolidated are accounted for under either the equity, fair value, or proportional 
amortization method of accounting. Prior to January 1, 2018, investments in entities that were not consolidated were accounted 
for under either the equity, cost, or proportional amortization method of accounting. Investments for which the Company has 
the ability to exercise significant influence over the operating and financing decisions of the entity are accounted for under the 
equity method. Investments for which the Company does not hold such ability are accounted for at cost less impairment plus or 
minus changes resulting from observable price changes, which approximates fair value. Prior to January 1, 2018, investments 
for which the Company did not hold such ability were accounted for under the cost method.  Investments in qualified 
affordable housing projects, which meet certain criteria, are accounted for under the proportional amortization method.

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 accounting for 
acquired impaired loans, the allowance for credit losses, the valuation of goodwill and other intangible assets, and income 
taxes.

CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISKS

Most of the Company’s business activity is with customers located in the southeastern United States. The Company’s lending 
activity is concentrated in its market areas within those states. The Company has emphasized originations of commercial loans 
and private banking loans, defined as loans to higher net worth 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 net realizable value of the collateral upon 
default of the borrowers and guarantor support. The Company believes it does not have any excessive concentrations to any one 
industry, loan type, or customer.

(cid:26)(cid:20)

BUSINESS COMBINATIONS

Assets and liabilities acquired in business combinations are recorded at their acquisition date fair values. The Company 
generally records provisional amounts at the time of acquisition based on the information available to the Company. The 
provisional estimates of fair values may be adjusted for a period of up to one year (“measurement period”) from the date of 
acquisition if new information is obtained about facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date that, if known, 
would have affected the measurement of the amounts recognized as of that date. Adjustments recorded during the measurement 
period are recognized in the current reporting period.

Loans generally represent a significant portion of the assets acquired in the Company’s business acquisitions. If the Company 
discovers that it has materially underestimated the credit losses expected in the loan portfolio based on information available at 
the acquisition date within the measurement period, it will reduce or eliminate the gain and/or increase goodwill recorded on 
the acquisition in the period the adjustment is recorded. If the Company determines that losses arose subsequent to the 
acquisition date, such losses are reflected as a provision for credit losses.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

For purposes of presentation in the consolidated statements of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents are defined as cash on 
hand, interest-bearing deposits, and non-interest-bearing demand deposits at other financial institutions with original maturities 
less than three months. IBERIABANK may be required to maintain average cash balances on hand or with the Federal Reserve 
Bank to meet regulatory reserve and clearing requirements. At December 31, 2018 and 2017, IBERIABANK had sufficient 
cash deposited with the Federal Reserve Bank to cover the required reserve balance.

INVESTMENT SECURITIES

Management determines the appropriate accounting classification of debt and equity securities at the time of acquisition and re-
evaluates such designations at least quarterly. Debt securities that management has the ability and intent to hold to maturity are 
classified as HTM and carried at cost, adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts using methods 
approximating the interest method. Securities acquired with the intention of recognizing short-term profits or which are actively 
bought and sold are classified as trading securities and reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses recognized in 
earnings. Securities not classified as HTM or trading are classified as AFS and recorded at fair value, with unrealized gains and 
losses excluded from earnings and reported in OCI. Prior to January 1, 2018, equity securities with readily determinable fair 
values were also classified as AFS and recorded at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses excluded from earnings and 
reported in OCI.  Credit-related declines in the fair value of debt securities that are considered OTTI are recorded in earnings. 
Prior to January 1, 2018, credit-related declines in the fair value of marketable equity securities that were considered OTTI 
were recorded in earnings. 

The Company evaluates its investment securities portfolio on a quarterly basis for indicators of OTTI. Declines in the fair value 
of individual HTM and AFS securities below their amortized cost basis are reviewed to determine whether the declines are 
other than temporary. In estimating OTTI losses, management considers 1) the length of time and the extent to which the fair 
value has been less than the amortized cost basis, 2) the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, 3) its intent to 
sell and whether it is more likely than not that the Company would be required to sell those securities before the anticipated 
recovery of the amortized cost basis, and 4) for debt securities, the recovery of contractual principal and interest.

For securities that the Company does not expect to sell, or it is not more likely than not it will be required to sell prior to 
recovery of its amortized cost basis, the credit component of an OTTI is recognized in earnings and the non-credit component 
is recognized in OCI. For securities that the Company does expect to sell, or it is more likely than not that it will be required to 
sell prior to recovery of its amortized cost basis, both the credit and non-credit component of an OTTI are recognized in 
earnings. Subsequent to recognition of OTTI, an increase in expected cash flows is recognized as a yield adjustment over the 
remaining expected life of the security based on an evaluation of the nature of the increase.

Other equity securities primarily consist of stock acquired for regulatory purposes, such as Federal Home Loan Bank stock and 
Federal Reserve Bank stock and are included in “other assets."

Gains or losses on securities sold are recorded on the trade date, using the specific identification method.

(cid:26)(cid:21)

LOANS HELD FOR SALE

Loans and loan commitments which the Company does not have the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until 
maturity or payoff are classified as loans held for sale at the time of origination or acquisition. Subsequent to origination or 
acquisition, if the Company no longer has the intent or ability to hold a loan for the foreseeable future, generally a decision has 
been made to sell the loan and it is classified within loans held for sale. Unless the fair value option has been elected at 
origination or acquisition, loans classified as held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or fair value. Amortization/accretion 
of remaining unamortized net deferred loan fees or costs and discounts or premiums (if applicable) ceases when a loan is 
classified as held for sale.

Loans held for sale primarily consist of fixed rate single-family residential mortgage loans originated and committed to be sold 
in the secondary market. Mortgage loans originated and held for sale are recorded at fair value under the fair value option, 
unless otherwise noted. For mortgage loans for which the Company has elected the fair value option, gains and losses are 
included in mortgage income. For any other loans held for sale, net unrealized losses, if any, are recognized through a valuation 
allowance that is recorded as a charge to non-interest income. See Note 19 for further discussion of the determination of fair 
value for loans held for sale. In most cases, loans in this category are sold within thirty days and are generally sold with the 
mortgage servicing rights released. Buyers generally have recourse to return a purchased loan or request reimbursement for the 
loan premium or consideration transferred for servicing rights under limited circumstances. Recourse conditions may include 
prepayment, payment default, breach of representations or warranties, and documentation deficiencies. During 2018 and 2017, 
an insignificant number of loans were returned to the Company. At December 31, 2018 and 2017, the recorded repurchase 
liability associated with transferred loans was not material.

LOANS

Legacy (Loans originated or renewed and underwritten by the Company)

The Company originates mortgage, commercial, and consumer loans for customers. Loans that management has the intent and 
ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or payoff are reported at the unpaid principal balances, less the ALL, 
charge-offs, and unamortized net loan origination fees and direct costs, except for loans carried at fair value. Interest income is 
accrued as earned over the term of the loans based on the principal balance outstanding. Loan origination fees, net of certain 
direct origination costs, are deferred and recognized as an adjustment of the related loan yield.

Acquired (Loans acquired through Business Combinations)

Acquired loans are recorded at fair value on the acquisition date. Credit risk assumptions and any resulting credit discounts are 
included in the determination of fair value. Therefore, an ALL is not recorded at the acquisition date. The determination of fair 
value includes estimates related to discount rates, expected prepayments, and the amount and timing of undiscounted expected 
principal, interest, and other cash flows.

All acquired loans are evaluated for impairment at the time of acquisition. At the time of acquisition, acquired loans that reflect 
credit deterioration since origination to the extent that it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all contractually 
required payments are classified as purchased impaired loans (“acquired impaired loans”).  All other acquired loans are 
classified as purchased non-impaired loans (“acquired non-impaired loans”).

At the time of acquisition, acquired impaired loans are accounted for individually or aggregated into loan pools with similar 
characteristics, which include:

•

•

•

•

•

whether the loan is performing according to contractual terms at the time of acquisition,

the loan type based on regulatory reporting guidelines, primarily whether the loan was a mortgage, consumer, or

commercial loan,

the nature of the collateral,

the interest rate type, whether fixed or variable rate, and

the loan payment type, primarily whether the loan is amortizing or interest-only.

From these pools, the Company uses certain loan information, including outstanding principal balance, estimated expected 
losses, weighted average maturity, weighted average term to re-price for a variable rate loan, weighted average margin and 
weighted average interest rate to estimate the expected cash flows for each loan pool.

(cid:26)(cid:22)

For acquired impaired loans, expected cash flows at the acquisition date in excess of the fair value of loans are recorded as 
interest income over the life of the loans using a level yield method if the timing and amount of future cash flows is reasonably 
estimable. For acquired non-impaired loans, the difference between the fair value and unpaid principal balance of the loan at 
acquisition, referred to as a purchase premium or discount, is amortized or accreted to income over the estimated life of the 
loans as an adjustment to yield.

Subsequent to acquisition, the Company performs cash flow re-estimations at least quarterly for each acquired impaired loan or 
loan pool. Increases in estimated cash flows above those expected at the time of acquisition are recognized on a prospective 
basis as interest income over the remaining life of the loan and/or pool. Decreases in expected cash flows subsequent to 
acquisition generally result in recognition of a provision for credit loss. The measurement of cash flows involves several 
assumptions and judgments, including prepayments, default rates and loss severity among other factors. All of these factors are 
inherently subjective and significant changes in the cash flow estimations can result over the life of the loan.

Classification

The Company’s loan portfolio is disaggregated into portfolio segments for purposes of determining the ACL. The Company’s 
portfolio segments include commercial, residential mortgage, and consumer and other loans, bifurcated between legacy and 
acquired non-impaired loans. The Company further disaggregates each commercial, residential mortgage, and consumer and 
other loans portfolio segment into classes for purposes of monitoring and assessing credit quality based on certain risk 
characteristics. Classes within the commercial loan portfolio segment include commercial real estate-construction, commercial 
real estate-owner-occupied, commercial real estate-non-owner occupied, and commercial and industrial. Classes within the 
consumer and other loans portfolio segment include home equity, indirect automobile, credit card and other.

Troubled Debt Restructurings

The Company periodically grants concessions to its customers in an attempt to protect as much of its investment as possible 
and minimize risk of loss. These concessions may include restructuring the terms of a loan to alleviate the burden of the 
customer’s near-term cash requirements. In order to be classified as a TDR, the Company must conclude that the restructuring 
constitutes a concession and the customer is experiencing financial difficulties. The Company defines a concession to the 
customer as a modification of existing terms for economic or legal reasons that it would otherwise not consider. The concession 
is either granted through an agreement with the customer or is imposed by a court of law. Concessions include modifying 
original loan terms to reduce or defer cash payments required as part of the loan agreement, including but not limited to:

•

•

•

•

a reduction of the stated interest rate for the remaining original life of the loan,

extension of the maturity date or dates at a stated interest rate lower than the current market rate for new loans with

similar risk characteristics,

reduction of the face amount or maturity amount of the loan as stated in the agreement, or

reduction of accrued interest receivable on the loan.

In its determination of whether the customer is experiencing financial difficulties, the Company considers numerous indicators, 
including, but not limited to:

•

•

•

•

whether the customer is currently in default on its existing loan(s), or is in an economic position where it is probable the

customer will be in default on its loan(s) in the foreseeable future without a modification,

whether the customer has declared or is in the process of declaring bankruptcy,

whether there is substantial doubt about the customer’s ability to continue as a going concern,

whether, based on its projections of the customer’s current capabilities, the Company believes the customer’s future cash

flows will be insufficient to service the loan, including interest, in accordance with the contractual terms of the existing

agreement for the foreseeable future, and

•

whether the customer cannot obtain sufficient funds from other sources at an effective interest rate equal to the current

market rate for a similar loan for a non-troubled debtor.

If the Company concludes that both a concession has been granted and the customer is experiencing financial difficulties, the 
Company identifies the loan as a TDR. All TDRs are considered impaired loans.

(cid:26)(cid:23)

Non-accrual and Past Due Loans (Including Loan Charge-offs)

Loans are generally considered past due when contractual payments of principal and interest have not been received within 
30 days from the contractual due date. Residential mortgage loans are considered past due when contractual payments have not 
been received for two consecutive payment dates.

Legacy and acquired non-impaired loans are placed on non-accrual status when any of the following occur: 1) the loan is 
maintained on a cash basis because of deterioration in the financial condition of the borrower; 2) collection of the full 
contractual amount of principal and interest is not expected even if the loan is currently paying as agreed;  or 3) when principal 
or interest has been in default for a period of 90 days or more, unless the loan is both well-secured and in the process of 
collection. Factors considered in determining the collection of the full contractual amount of principal and interest include 
assessment of the borrower’s cash flow, valuation of underlying collateral, and the ability and willingness of guarantors to 
provide credit support.  Certain commercial loans are also placed on non-accrual status when payment is not past due and full 
payment of principal and interest is expected, but the Company has doubt about the borrower’s ability to comply with existing 
repayment terms. Consideration will be given to placing a loan on non-accrual due to the deterioration of the debtor’s 
repayment ability, the repayment of the loan becoming dependent on the liquidation of collateral, an existing collateral 
deficiency, the loan being classified as "Doubtful" or "Loss," the client filing for bankruptcy, and/or foreclosure being initiated. 
Regarding all classes within the C&I and CRE portfolios, the determination of a borrower’s ability to make the required 
principal and interest payments is based on an examination of the borrower’s current financial statements, industry, 
management capabilities, and other qualitative factors.

Acquired impaired loans are placed on non-accrual status when the Company cannot reasonably estimate cash flows on a loan 
or loan pool. Legacy and acquired non-impaired loans are evaluated for potential charge-off in accordance with the parameters 
discussed in the following paragraph or when the loan is placed on non-accrual status, whichever is earlier.

Loans within the commercial portfolio (except for acquired impaired loans) are generally evaluated for charge-off at 
90 days past due, unless both well-secured and in the process of collection. Closed and open-end residential mortgage and 
consumer loans (except for acquired impaired loans) are evaluated for charge-off no later than 120 days past due. Any 
outstanding loan balance in excess of the fair value of the collateral less costs to sell is charged-off no later than 120 days days 
past due for loans secured by real estate. For non-real estate secured loans, in lieu of charging off the entire loan balance, loans 
may be written down to the fair value of the collateral less costs to sell if repossession of collateral is assured and in process.

The accrual of interest, as well as the amortization/accretion of any remaining unamortized net deferred fees or costs and 
discount or premium, is discontinued at the time the loan is placed on non-accrual status. All accrued but uncollected interest 
for loans that are placed on non-accrual status is reversed through interest income. Cash receipts received on non-accrual loans 
are generally applied against principal until the loan has been collected in full, after which time any additional cash receipts are 
recognized as interest income (i.e., cost recovery method). However, interest may be accounted for under the cash-basis method 
as long as the remaining recorded investment in the loan is deemed fully collectible.

Loans are returned to accrual status when the borrower has demonstrated a capacity to continue payment of the debt (generally 
a minimum of six months of sustained repayment performance) and collection of contractually required principal and interest 
associated with the debt is reasonably assured. Additionally, for a non-accrual TDR to be returned to accrual status, a current, 
well-documented credit analysis is required and the borrower must have complied with all terms of the modification. At such 
time, the accrual of interest and amortization/accretion of any remaining unamortized net deferred fees or costs and discount or 
premium shall resume. Any interest income which was applied to the principal balance shall not be reversed and subsequently 
will be recognized as an adjustment to yield over the remaining life of the loan.

Impaired Loans

For all classes within the commercial portfolio, all loans with an outstanding commitment balance above a specific threshold 
are evaluated on a quarterly basis for potential impairment. Generally, residential mortgage and consumer loans within any 
class are not individually evaluated on a regular basis for impairment. All TDRs, regardless of the outstanding balance amount 
or portfolio classification, and all acquired impaired loans are considered to be impaired.

(cid:26)(cid:24)

A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to 
collect the scheduled payments of principal and/or interest in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan agreement. 
Factors considered by management in determining impairment include payment status, collateral value, and the likelihood of 
collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when contractually due. Loans that experience insignificant payment 
delays and payment shortfalls generally are not classified as impaired. Impairment losses are measured on a loan-by-loan basis 
for commercial and certain residential mortgage or consumer loans, based on either the present value of expected future cash 
flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, the loan’s observable market price, or the fair value of the collateral if the 
loan is collateral-dependent. This measurement requires significant judgment and use of estimates, and the actual loss 
ultimately recognized by the Company may differ significantly from the estimates.

ALLOWANCE FOR CREDIT LOSSES

The Company maintains the ACL at a level that management believes appropriate to absorb estimated probable credit losses 
incurred in the loan portfolios, including unfunded commitments, as of the consolidated balance sheet date. The ACL consists 
of the allowance for loan losses (contra asset) and the reserve for unfunded commitments (liability). The manner in which the 
ACL is determined is based on 1) the accounting method applied to the underlying loans and 2) whether the loan is required to 
be measured for impairment. The Company delineates between loans accounted for under the contractual yield method, legacy 
and acquired non-impaired loans, and acquired impaired loans. Further, for legacy and acquired non-impaired loans, the 
Company attributes portions of the ACL to loans and loan commitments that it measures individually, and groups of 
homogeneous loans and loan commitments that it measures collectively for impairment. 

Determination of the appropriate ACL involves a high degree of complexity and requires significant judgment regarding the 
credit quality of the loan portfolio. Several factors are taken into consideration in the determination of the overall ACL, 
including a qualitative component. These factors include, but are not limited to, the overall risk profiles of the loan portfolios, 
net charge-off experience, the extent of impaired loans, the level of non-accrual loans, the level of 90 days past due loans, the 
value of collateral, the ability to monetize guarantor support, and the overall percentage level of the allowance relative to the 
loan portfolio, amongst other factors. The Company also considers overall asset quality trends, changes in lending practices and 
procedures, trends in the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, including the existence and effect of any portfolio 
concentrations, changes in experience and depth of lending staff, the Company’s legal, regulatory and competitive 
environment, national and regional economic trends, data availability and applicability that might impact the portfolio or the 
manner in which it estimates losses, and risk rating accuracy and risk identification.

The allowance for loan losses for all impaired loans (excluding acquired impaired loans) is determined on an individual loan 
basis, considering the facts and circumstances specific to each borrower. The allowance is based on the difference between the 
recorded investment in the loan and generally either the estimated net present value of projected cash flows or the estimated 
value of the collateral associated with a collateral-dependent loan. 

The allowance for loan losses for all non-impaired loans (excluding acquired impaired loans) is calculated based on pools of 
loans with similar characteristics. The pool-level allowance is calculated through the application of PD (i.e., probability of 
default) and LGD (i.e., loss given default) factors for each individual loan. PDs and LGDs are determined based on historical 
default and loss information for similar loans. For purposes of establishing estimated loss percentages for pools of loans that 
share common risk characteristics, the Company’s loan portfolio is segmented by various loan characteristics including loan 
type, risk rating for commercial, Vantage or FICO score for residential mortgage and consumer, past due status for residential 
mortgage and consumer and call report code. The default and loss information is measured over an appropriate period for each 
loan pool and adjusted as deemed appropriate. Qualitative adjustments are incorporated into the pool-level analysis to 
accommodate for the imprecision of certain assumptions and uncertainties inherent in the calculation. 

See the "Loans" section of this footnote for discussion of the determination of the ACL for acquired impaired loans.

Certain inherent, but unconfirmed losses are probable within the loan portfolio. The Company’s current methodology for 
determining the level of inherent losses is based on historical loss rates, current credit grades, specific allocation, and other 
qualitative adjustments. In a stable or deteriorating credit environment, heavy reliance on historical loss rates and the credit 
grade rating process results in model-derived reserves that tend to slightly lag behind portfolio deterioration. Similar lags can 
occur in an improving credit environment whereby required reserves can lag slightly behind portfolio improvement. Given 
these and other model limitations, qualitative adjustment factors may be incremental or decremental to the quantitative model 
results. 

The reserve for unfunded commitments is determined using similar methodologies described above for non-impaired loans. 
The loss factors used in the reserve for unfunded commitments are equivalent to the loss factors used in the allowance for loan 
losses, while also considering utilization of unused commitments.

(cid:26)(cid:25)

PREMISES AND EQUIPMENT

Land is carried at cost. Buildings, furniture, fixtures, and equipment are carried at cost, less accumulated depreciation 
computed on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of 10 to 40 years for buildings and related improvements and 
generally 3 to 20 years for furniture, fixtures, and equipment. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the lease term, 
including any renewal periods that are reasonably assured, or the asset’s useful life, whichever is shorter. Premises and 
equipment are evaluated for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the 
asset may not be recoverable.     

GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of the consideration paid in a business combination over the fair value of the identifiable net 
assets acquired. Goodwill is not amortized, but is assessed for potential impairment at a reporting unit level on an annual basis, 
as of October 1st, or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not the fair value of a 
reporting unit is less than its respective carrying amount. For the annual October 1, 2018 impairment evaluation, management 
elected to bypass the qualitative assessment for each respective reporting unit (IBERIABANK, Mortgage, and LTC) and 
performed Step 1 of the goodwill impairment test. Step 1 of the goodwill impairment test requires the Company to compare the 
fair value of each reporting unit with its carrying amount, including goodwill. Accordingly, the Company determined the fair 
value of each reporting unit and compared the fair value to each respective reporting unit’s carrying amount. The Company 
determined that none of the reporting units’ fair values were below their respective carrying amounts. The Company concluded 
goodwill was not impaired as of October 1, 2018. Further, no events or changes in circumstances between October 1, 2018 and 
December 31, 2018 indicated that it was more likely than not the fair value of any reporting unit had been reduced below its 
carrying value.

Based on the testing performed in 2018 and 2017, management concluded that for the IBERIABANK, Mortgage, and LTC 
reporting units, goodwill was not impaired at any time during those periods.

Title Plant

Costs incurred to construct a title plant, including the costs incurred to obtain, organize, and summarize historical information, 
are capitalized until the title plant can be used to perform title searches. A purchased title plant, including a purchased 
undivided interest in a title plant, is recorded at cost at the date of acquisition. For a title plant acquired separately or as part of a 
business acquisition, cost is measured as the fair value of the consideration paid. Capitalized costs of a title plant are not 
depreciated or charged to income unless circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the title plant has been impaired. 
Impairment indicators include a change in legal requirements or statutory practices, identification of obsolescence, or 
abandonment of the title plant, among other indicators.

Capitalized storage and retrieval costs (e.g., costs to convert from one storage retrieval system to another or to modernize the 
storage and retrieval systems) incurred after a title plant is operational are charged to expense in a systematic and rational 
manner. Title plant is recorded within "other assets" on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

Intangible assets subject to amortization

The Company’s acquired intangible assets that are subject to amortization primarily include core deposit intangibles, which are 
amortized on a straight-line or accelerated basis, and a customer relationship intangible asset, which is amortized on an 
accelerated basis, over average lives not to exceed 10 years. The Company reviews intangible assets for impairment whenever 
events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. Impairment is identified if the 
sum of the undiscounted estimated future cash flows is less than the carrying value of the asset. Intangible assets are recorded 
within "other assets" on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

(cid:26)(cid:26)

OTHER REAL ESTATE OWNED

Other real estate owned includes all real estate, other than bank premises used in bank operations, owned or controlled by the 
Company, including real estate acquired in settlement of loans. Properties are initially recognized at the lower of the recorded 
investment in the loan or its estimated fair value less costs to sell, generally when the Company has received physical 
possession.  The amount by which the recorded investment of the loan exceeds the fair value less costs to sell of the property is 
charged to the ALL. Subsequent to foreclosure, the assets are carried at the lower of cost or fair value less costs to sell. Former 
bank properties transferred to OREO are recorded at the lower of cost or market. Subsequent declines in the fair value of other 
real estate are recorded as adjustments to the carrying amount through a valuation allowance. Revenue and expenses from 
operations, gain or loss on sale, and changes in the valuation allowance are included in net expenses from foreclosed assets. 
OREO is recorded within "other assets" on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Company enters into various derivative financial instruments to manage interest rate risk, asset sensitivity and other 
exposures such as liquidity and credit risk, as well as to facilitate customer transactions. The primary types of derivatives 
utilized by the Company for its risk management strategies include interest rate swap agreements, interest rate collars, interest 
rate floors, foreign exchange contracts, interest rate lock commitments, forward sales commitments, written and purchased 
options, and credit derivatives. All derivative instruments are recognized on the consolidated balance sheets as "other assets" or 
"other liabilities" at fair value, regardless of whether a right of offset exists. Changes in the fair value of a derivative instrument 
are recorded based on whether it has been designated and qualifies as part of a hedging relationship.

Interest rate swap and foreign exchange contracts are entered into by the Company to allow its commercial customers to 
manage their exposure to market rate fluctuations.  To mitigate the Company's exposure to the rate risk associated with 
customer contracts, offsetting derivative positions are entered into with reputable counterparties. The Company manages its 
credit risk, or potential risk of default, from the customer contracts through credit limit approval and monitoring procedures. 
These contracts are not designated for hedge accounting (i.e., treated as economic hedges).

Derivatives Designated in Hedging Relationships

For cash flow hedges, the effective and ineffective portions of the gain or loss related to the derivative instrument is initially 
reported as a component of OCI and subsequently reclassified into earnings when the forecasted transaction affects earnings or 
when the hedge is terminated. Prior to January 1, 2018, the ineffective portion of the gain or loss, if any, was reported in 
earnings immediately in either "other income" or "other expense," respectively. 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. The Company has designated 
interest rate swaps in a cash flow hedge to convert forecasted variable interest payments to a fixed rate on its junior 
subordinated debt.  The Company has also designated interest rate collars and interest rate floors in a cash flow hedge to reduce 
the risk of fluctuations in interest rates and thereby reduce the Company’s exposure to variability in cash flows from variable-
rate loans.  The Company has concluded that the forecasted transactions are probable of occurring.

Derivatives Not Designated in Hedging Relationships

For derivative instruments that are not designated as hedging instruments, changes in the fair value of the derivatives are 
recognized in earnings immediately.

Common Types of Derivatives

•

•

•

Interest rate swap agreements     Interest rate swaps are agreements to exchange interest payments based upon notional
amounts. The exchange of payments typically involves paying a fixed rate and receiving a variable rate or vice versa.
The Company primarily utilizes these instruments, which the Company designates as cash flow hedges, to manage
interest rate risk by converting a portion of its variable-rate loans or debt to a fixed rate.

Interest rate collars     Interest rate collars are agreements that create a range within which interest rates can fluctuate.
The interest rate collar protects against significant decreases in interest rates but limits the benefits when interest rates
increase. These instruments are designated as cash flow hedges and are used by the Company to manage interest rate risk
by reducing the variability in cash flows that can occur with variable-rate loans.

Interest rate floors     Interest rate floors are agreements that protect against significant decreases in interest rates if
interest rates fall below a specified level over an agreed period of time. These instruments are designated as cash flow
hedges and are used by the Company to manage interest rate risk by reducing the variability in cash flows that can occur
with variable-rate loans.

Interest rate lock commitments     The Company enters into commitments to originate mortgage loans intended for sale
whereby the interest rate on the prospective loan is determined prior to funding (“rate lock”). A rate lock is provided to a
borrower, subject to conditional performance obligations, for a specified period of time that typically does not exceed 60
days. Rate lock commitments on mortgage loans that are intended to be sold are recognized as derivatives. Accordingly,
such commitments are recorded at fair value as derivative assets or liabilities, with changes in fair value recorded in
mortgage income on the consolidated statements of comprehensive income.

Forward sales commitments     The Company uses forward sales commitments to protect the value of its rate locks and
mortgage loans held for sale from changes in interest rates and pricing between the origination of the rate lock and sale
of these loans, as changes in interest rates have the potential to cause a decline in value of rate locks and mortgage loans
included in the held for sale portfolio. These commitments are recognized as derivatives and recorded at fair value as
derivative assets or liabilities, with changes in fair value recorded in mortgage income on the consolidated statements of
comprehensive income.

Equity-indexed certificates of deposit     IBERIABANK offers its customers a certificate of deposit that provides the
purchaser a guaranteed return of principal at maturity plus a potential return, which allows IBERIABANK to identify a
known cost of funds. The rate of return is based on the performance of a group of publicly traded stocks that represent a
variety of industry segments. Because it is based on an equity index, the rate of return represents an embedded derivative
that is not clearly and closely related to the host instrument and is to be accounted for separately. Accordingly, the
certificate of deposit is separated into two components: a zero coupon certificate of deposit (the host instrument) and a
written option purchased by the depositor (an embedded derivative). The discount on the zero coupon deposit is
amortized over the life of the deposit, and the written option is carried at fair value on the Company’s consolidated
balance sheets, with changes in fair value recorded through earnings. IBERIABANK offsets the risks of the written
option by purchasing an option with terms that mirror the written option, which is also carried at fair value on the
Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET CREDIT-RELATED FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

In the ordinary course of business, the Company executes various commitments to extend credit, including commitments under 
commercial construction arrangements, commercial and home equity lines of credit, credit card arrangements, commercial 
letters of 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.  Such financial instruments are recorded on the 
funding date.  At December 31, 2018 and 2017, the fair value of guarantees under commercial and standby letters of credit was 
not material.

TRANSFERS OF FINANCIAL ASSETS

Transfers of financial assets, or portions thereof which meet the definition of a participating interest, are accounted for as sales 
when control over the assets has been surrendered. Control over transferred assets is deemed to be surrendered when 1) the 
assets have been legally isolated from the Company, 2) the transferee has the right to pledge or exchange the assets with no 
conditions that constrain the transferee and provide more than a trivial benefit to the Company, and 3) the Company does not 
maintain effective control over the transferred assets. If the transfer does not satisfy all three criteria, the transaction is recorded 
as a secured borrowing.

If the transfer is accounted for as a sale, the transferred assets are derecognized from the Company’s balance sheet and a gain or 
loss on sale is recognized. If the transfer is accounted for as a secured borrowing, the transferred assets remain on the 
Company’s balance sheet and the proceeds from the transaction are recognized as a liability.

Servicing Rights

The Company recognizes the rights to service mortgage and other loans as separate assets, which are recorded in "other assets" 
in the consolidated balance sheets, when purchased or when servicing is contractually separated from the underlying loans by 
sale with servicing rights retained.

For loan sales with servicing retained, a servicing right, generally an asset, is recorded at fair value at the time of sale for the 
right to service the loans sold. All servicing rights are identified by class and amortized over the remaining service life of the 
loan.

(cid:26)(cid:28)

INCOME TAXES

The Company and all subsidiaries file a consolidated Federal income tax return on a calendar year basis. The Company files 
income tax returns in the U.S. Federal jurisdiction and various state and local jurisdictions through IBERIABANK Corporation 
(Parent), IBERIABANK, and their respective subsidiaries. In lieu of Louisiana state income tax, IBERIABANK is subject to 
the Louisiana bank shares tax, portions of which are included in both "non-interest expense" and "income tax expense" in the 
Company’s consolidated statements of comprehensive income. With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to U.S. 
federal, state or local income tax examinations for years before 2014.

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined using the liability or balance sheet method. Under this method, the net 
deferred tax asset or liability is determined based on the tax effects of the temporary differences between the book and tax bases 
of the various balance sheet assets and liabilities and gives current recognition to changes in tax rates and laws. The 
measurement of deferred tax assets is reduced, if necessary, by the amount of any tax benefits that, based on available evidence, 
are not expected to be realized.

The Company recognizes interest and penalties accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits, if applicable, in "non-interest 
expense."

Investments in qualified affordable housing projects that meet certain criteria are accounted for under the proportional 
amortization method. Under this method, the expense associated with the investments is recognized in income tax expense 
rather than non-interest expense. The Company has also elected to utilize the deferral method for investments that generate 
investment tax credits. Under this approach, the investment tax credits are recognized as a reduction of the related asset rather 
than income tax expense.

SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION PLANS

The Company issues stock options, restricted stock awards, restricted share units, and phantom stock awards under various 
plans to directors, officers, and other key employees. Compensation cost for all awards is recognized on a straight-line basis 
over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period, taking into account retirement eligibility. The majority 
of the Company's share-based awards qualify for equity accounting and contain service conditions. The fair value of awards is 
measured at the grant date and not subsequently remeasured. The Company accounts for share-based forfeitures as they occur.

For awards that contain a market condition, the Company includes the market condition in the determination of the grant date 
fair value of the award. Compensation cost for an award with a market condition is recognized regardless of whether the market 
condition is satisfied, assuming the requisite service is met. The Company does not include performance conditions in the 
determination of the grant date fair value of the award.  Compensation cost for an award with a performance condition is not 
recognized if the performance condition is not satisfied. Phantom stock awards are accounted for as liability awards and are 
remeasured at each reporting period based on their fair value until the date of settlement. Compensation cost for each reporting 
period until settlement is based on the change (or a portion of the change, depending on the percentage of the requisite service 
that has been rendered at the reporting date) in the fair value of the phantom stock award for each reporting period.

Compensation expense relating to share-based awards is recognized in net income as part of “salaries and employee benefits” 
on the consolidated statements of comprehensive income for employees and “professional services” for non-employee 
directors. The exercise price for the options granted by the Company is not less than the fair market value of the underlying 
stock at the grant date.

EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE

Basic earnings per share represents income available to common shareholders divided by the weighted average number of 
common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share reflects additional common shares that would have 
been outstanding if dilutive potential common shares, in the form of stock options or restricted stock units, had been issued, as 
well as any adjustment to income that would result from the assumed issuance. Participating common shares issued by the 
Company relate to unvested outstanding restricted stock awards, the earnings allocated to which are used in determining 
income available to common shareholders under the two-class method. The two-class method allocates earnings for the period 
between common shareholders and other participating securities holders. The participating awards receiving dividends are 
allocated the same percentage of income as if they were outstanding shares.

SHARE REPURCHASES

The Company classifies repurchased shares as a reduction to issued shares of common stock and adjusts the stated value of 
common stock and paid-in-capital.

(cid:27)(cid:19)

COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

Accounting principles generally require that recognized revenue, expenses, gains, and losses be included in net income. 
Although certain changes in assets and liabilities, such as unrealized gains and losses on available for sale securities and cash 
flow hedges, are reported as a separate component of the shareholders’ equity section of the consolidated balance sheets, such 
items along with net income are components of comprehensive income.

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Fair value is the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (exit price) in the principal or 
most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement 
date. 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.

Following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for financial instruments measured at fair value, as well as the 
classification of such instruments within the valuation hierarchy. The descriptions below are exclusive of assets or liabilities 
acquired in business combinations, as all such instruments are required to initially be measured at fair value.

•

•

Cash and cash equivalents     The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents approximate their fair value and are
classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.

Investment securities     Securities are classified within Level 1 where quoted market prices are available in an active
market. If quoted market prices are unavailable, fair value is estimated using quoted prices of securities with similar
characteristics and the securities are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

• Mortgage loans held for sale     Mortgage loans originated and held for sale are recorded at fair value under the fair
value option, unless otherwise noted. When determining the fair value of loans held for sale, the Company obtains
quotes or bids on these loans directly from the purchasing financial institutions. Mortgage loans held for sale are
classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

• Mortgage loans held for investment at fair value option     The fair value of mortgage loans held for investment at fair
value option is determined by a third party using a discounted cash flow model using various assumptions about future
loan performance and market discount rates. Mortgage loans held for investment at fair value option are classified within
Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

•

Loans     The fair values of mortgage loans are estimated using an exit price methodology that is based on present values
using interest rate that would be charged for a similar loan to a borrower with similar risk at December 31, 2018,
weighted for varying maturity dates and adjusted for a liquidity discount based on the estimated time period to complete
a sale transaction with a market participant. At December 31, 2017, the fair value of mortgage loans was estimated using
an entry value methodology.

Other loans and leases are valued based on present values using the interest rate that would be charged for a similar
instrument to a borrower with similar risk at December 31, 2018, applicable to each category of instruments, and
adjusted for a liquidity discount based on the estimated time period to complete a sale transaction with a market
participant.  At December 31, 2017, the fair value of other loans and leases was estimated using an entry value
methodology.

At December 31, 2018 and 2017, mortgage and other loans and leases are classified within Level 3 of the fair value
hierarchy.

•

Impaired loans     Fair value measurements for impaired loans are determined using either a present value of expected
future cash flows discounted using the loan’s effective interest rate or the fair value of the collateral, if the loan is
collateral-dependent (Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy). Fair value of the collateral is determined by appraisals or
independent valuation less costs to sell. Impaired loans for which the fair value of the collateral is higher than the
recorded investment in the loan are not adjusted to fair value and therefore not recorded in the Company’s non-recurring
fair value measurements section of the Fair Value Measurements footnote.

Other real estate owned     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.  Updated appraisals are obtained on at least an annual basis.  OREO measured at fair value is classified within
Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

Derivative financial instruments     Fair values of interest rate swaps, interest rate locks, interest rate collars, interest rate
floors, foreign exchange contracts, forward sales contracts, and 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.

Deposits     The fair value of non-interest-bearing deposits, NOW accounts, money market deposits and savings accounts
are the amounts payable on demand at the reporting date. Certificates of deposit and other time deposits are valued using
a discounted cash flow model based on the weighted-average rate at December 31, 2018 and 2017 for deposits with
similar remaining maturities. The Company evaluated the inputs to the fair value estimate and based on our use of
quoted prices for similar liabilities determined that the fair value of deposits should be classified within Level 2 of the
fair value hierarchy.

Short-term borrowings     Securities sold under agreements to repurchase, which are classified as secured borrowings,
generally mature daily, are reflected at the amount of cash received in connection with the transaction, and are classified
within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. The carrying amounts of other short-term borrowings maturing within ninety
days approximate their fair values and are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy as similar instruments are
traded in active markets.

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 is classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

NOTE 2 - RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Pronouncements adopted during the year ended December 31, 2018:

ASU No. 2014-09

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which implements a common 
revenue standard and clarifies the principles used for recognizing revenue. The ASU clarifies that an entity should recognize 
revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which 
the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services.

Revenue from Contracts with Customers

The majority of the Company’s income streams (e.g., interest and dividend income and mortgage income) are accounted for in 
accordance with GAAP literature outside the scope of ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Details regarding 
income recognition for interest and non-interest streams can be found throughout Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting 
Policies. Impairment losses recognized against certain receivables (e.g., NSF fees) and capitalized costs (e.g., sales 
commissions) associated with contracts within the scope of ASC 606 are immaterial.

Non-interest income from service charges on deposit accounts, broker commissions, ATM/debit card fee income, credit card 
and merchant-related income (e.g., interchange fees), and transactional income from traditional banking services (part of other 
non-interest income) are the significant income streams within the scope of ASC 606 associated with the IBERIABANK 
reportable segment. Non-interest income from title revenue is associated with the LTC reportable segment.

Recognition of Revenue from Contracts with Customers

The Company enters into various contracts with customers to provide traditional banking services, including asset 
management, on a routine basis. The Company’s performance obligations are generally service-related and provided on a daily 
or monthly basis. The Company does not typically have performance obligations which extend beyond a reporting period. The 
performance obligations are generally satisfied upon completion of service (i.e., as services are rendered) and the fees are 
collected at such time, or shortly thereafter. The fees are readily determinable and allocated individually to each service. It is 
not typical for contracts to require significant judgment to determine the transaction price. Some contracts contain variable 
consideration; however, the variable consideration is generally constrained (not estimable) as it is based on the occurrence or 
nonoccurence of a contingent event (or another constraint in some circumstances). The Company generally records the variable 
consideration when the contingent event occurs and the fee is determinable.

The Company provides some services for customers in which it acts in an agent capacity, but generally acts in a principal 
capacity. Payment terms and conditions vary slightly amongst services; however, amounts are generally invoiced and due or 
collected by the Company within 30 days, although some fees may be prepaid. The Company bills the customer periodically as 
performance obligations are satisfied for most services. Therefore, revenue for services provided is generally recognized in the 
amount invoiced (except in circumstances of prepayment) as that amount corresponds directly to the value of the Company’s 
performance. In the normal course of business, the Company does not generally grant refunds for services provided. As such, 
the Company does not establish provisions for estimated returns.

Title revenue associated with services provided by LTC, as well as broker commissions, ATM/debit card fee income, credit card 
and merchant-related income (e.g., interchange fees), and transactional fees from traditional banking services generated within 
IBERIABANK are generally recognized at the point-in-time the services are provided. The Company has determined this 
recognition to be appropriate as, upon completion of services, the Company has completed its performance obligations, has a 
present right to payment (or has collected the cash), and the customer is able to obtain (or has obtained) substantially all of the 
benefits from the performance obligation (i.e., the provided services). Revenues from service charges on deposit accounts are 
recognized at the end of the monthly service period (e.g., account service charges) or the date the performance obligation is 
satisfied (e.g., NSF, stop payment, wire transfer, etc.), except for deposit account services performed by Treasury Management 
which are recognized on a monthly basis, as these services are performed over that time. Asset management fees (e.g., trust 
fees) are generally recognized at the end of the monthly service period, but fees are not collected until the beginning of the 
subsequent month, although some contracts may have quarterly terms and/or be prepaid. NSF fees which are not initially paid 
are subsequently recorded as a loan (along with the overdraft balance) and remain classified as such until the amount is paid or 
charged-off (generally after 60 days).

(cid:27)(cid:22)

Adoption of ASC 606

The Company adopted ASC 606 as of January 1, 2018 for all contracts as of the effective date. Prior period amounts have been 
reclassified to conform to current guidance requirements related to the net presentation of certain costs associated with 
interchange fees and rewards programs. The reclassification of prior period amounts reduced non-interest income and non-
interest expense by approximately $8.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2017 and had no impact on net income. There 
was no cumulative adjustment made to opening retained earnings as of January 1, 2018.

ASU No. 2016-01

In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-01, Financial Statements - Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and 
Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, which impacts how the Company measures certain equity 
investments and discloses and presents certain financial instruments through the application of the “exit price” methodology.

The Company adopted this ASU as of January 1, 2018. Under the new guidance, equity investments can no longer be classified 
as trading or available for sale (AFS), and the related unrealized holding gains and losses can no longer be recognized in OCI. 
Per the ASU, such equity investments should be measured at fair value with adjustments recognized in earnings at the end of 
each reporting period. The Company’s portfolio of equity investments previously classified as AFS investment securities, 
which were not material at the date of adoption, were reclassified to “other assets.”  As these equity investments were 
previously measured at fair value, the implementation of this ASU did not require any changes to the Company’s valuation 
method for these equity investments. As a result of adopting this ASU, the Company recorded an immaterial cumulative-effect 
adjustment to retained earnings for previously recorded fair value adjustments related to these equity investments. The 
Company elected the practical expedient measurement alternative to prospectively account for other equity investments that do 
not have readily determinable fair values at cost less impairment plus or minus observable price changes in orderly transactions 
for an identical or similar investment of the same issuer.  

The Company also modified its methodology for determining the estimated fair value for loans measured at amortized cost to 
the “exit price” methodology as required by this ASU. The fair value disclosure for loans measured at amortized cost had 
previously been determined using an “entry price” methodology. The Company’s “exit price” methodology estimates the fair 
value of these loans based on the present value of the future cash flows using the interest rate that would be charged for a 
similar loan to a borrower with similar risk at the indicated balance sheet date, adjusted for a liquidity discount based on the 
estimated time period to complete a sale transaction with a market participant.

ASU No. 2016-15

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (ASC 230): Classification of Certain Cash 
Receipts and Cash Payments, in order to reduce current diversity in practice in how certain cash receipts and cash payments are 
presented and classified in the statement of cash flows.

The Company retrospectively adopted this ASU effective January 1, 2018. The adoption of this ASU did not impact the 
Company’s consolidated statements of cash flows.

ASU No. 2017-04

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (ASC 350): Simplifying the Test for 
Goodwill Impairment, which simplifies how an entity is required to test goodwill for impairment by eliminating Step 2 from 
the goodwill impairment test. Therefore, any carrying amount which exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value up to the amount of 
goodwill recorded will be recognized as an impairment loss.

The Company elected to early adopt this ASU prospectively effective September 30, 2018.  The Company completed its annual 
impairment test as of October 1, 2018 in accordance with this ASU and concluded that goodwill was not impaired as of the 
testing date.

ASU No. 2017-12

In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging (ASC 815): Targeted Improvements to 
Accounting for Hedging Activities, which amends the hedge accounting model to enable entities to better portray the economics 
of their risk management activities in the financial statements and enhance the transparency and understandability of hedge 
results.

The Company elected to early adopt this ASU effective January 1, 2018. The modified-retrospective adoption of this ASU did 
not impact the Company’s consolidated financial statements in the current or prior periods.

(cid:27)(cid:23)

ASU No. 2018-15

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-15, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 
350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service
Contract.  The guidance requires customers in a cloud computing arrangement (i.e., hosting arrangement) that is a service
contract to follow the internal-use software guidance in ASC 350-40 to determine which implementation costs to capitalize as
assets or expense as incurred. ASC 350-40 requires the capitalization of certain costs incurred only during the application
development stage (e.g., costs of integration with on-premises software, coding, configuration, and customization). ASC
350-40 also requires entities to expense costs during the preliminary project and post-implementation stages (e.g., costs of
project planning, training, maintenance after implementation, data conversion) as they are incurred.  The accounting for the
service element of the arrangement is not affected by the ASU.

Capitalized implementation costs related to a hosting arrangement that is a service contract should be amortized over the term 
of the hosting arrangement.  Capitalized implementation costs and the related expense should be presented in the same line 
item in the statement of financial position and income statement as the fees associated with the hosting element of the 
arrangement.  Capitalized implementation cost payments should be classified in the statement of cash flows in the same manner 
as payments for the service component of the hosting arrangement (typically operating cash flows).  

The Company elected to early adopt the guidance prospectively effective August 31, 2018.  The adoption of the guidance did 
not have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Pronouncements issued but not yet adopted:

ASU No. 2016-02, ASU No. 2018-11, and ASU No. 2018-20

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (ASC 842). This guidance requires lessees to recognize lease 
assets (i.e., right of use assets) and liabilities on the balance sheet for leases that are classified as operating leases. The lessor 
accounting model was relatively unchanged by this ASU. Additional guidance includes, but is not limited to, the elimination of 
leveraged leases; modification to the definition of a lease; guidance on sale and leaseback transactions; and disclosure of 
additional quantitative and qualitative information. ASU No. 2016-02 required lessees and lessors to recognize and measure 
leases at the beginning of the earliest period presented using a modified retrospective approach.

In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-11, Leases (ASC 842): Targeted Improvements.  This ASU includes an optional 
transition method to apply ASU No. 2016-02 on a prospective basis as of the effective date, with a cumulative effect adjustment 
to retained earnings in the period of adoption, instead of applying the guidance using a modified retrospective approach as 
originally required under ASU No. 2016-02.  ASU No. 2018-11 also provides lessors with a practical expedient by class of 
underlying asset to not separate nonlease components from the associated lease component under certain circumstances and 
clarifies which guidance (ASC 842 or ASC 606) to apply to combined lease and nonlease components.

In December 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-20, Leases (Topic 842): Narrow-Scope Improvements for Lessors.  This 
ASU permits lessors to elect to not evaluate whether certain sales taxes and other similar taxes are lessor costs or lessee costs 
and instead, exclude these taxes from the measurement of lease revenue and expense and provide certain disclosures.  The ASU 
adds further clarity regarding lessor recognition and measurement of (i) lessor costs paid directly by lessees to third parties on 
the lessor’s behalf and lessor costs that are paid by the lessor and reimbursed by the lessee, and (ii) certain variable payments 
that are allocated to the lease and non-lease components when changes in the facts and circumstances on which the variable 
payment is based occur. 

The Company elected the optional transition method and adopted ASU No. 2016-02, ASU No. 2018-11 and ASU No. 2018-20 
effective January 1, 2019. The Company occupies certain banking offices and uses equipment under operating lease 
agreements, which were historically not recognized on the consolidated balance sheets. As a result of adopting this ASU, the 
Company anticipates recording a net increase to both assets and liabilities of approximately $100 million on January 1, 2019. 
The Company also elected the package of practical expedients that do not require the reassessment of expired or existing 
contracts’ lease classification, direct costs, or whether they are or contain leases.  The Company did not elect the hindsight 
practical expedient.  The Company did not elect to account for lease and nonlease components as a single lease component.  
The adjustment to retained earnings on January 1, 2019 as a result of adopting this ASU and the related impact on the 
Company’s regulatory capital ratios was not significant.

(cid:27)(cid:24)

ASU No. 2016-13

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (ASC 326): Measurement of Credit 
Losses on Financial Instruments. The guidance introduces an impairment model that is based on expected credit losses (ECL), 
rather than incurred losses, to estimate credit losses on certain types of financial instruments such as loans and held-to-maturity 
securities, including certain off-balance sheet financial instruments such as loan commitments. The measurement of ECL 
should consider historical information, current information, and reasonable and supportable forecasts, including estimates of 
prepayments, over the contractual term. Financial instruments with similar risk characteristics must be grouped together when 
estimating ECL.

The ASU also amends the current AFS security impairment model for debt securities. The new model will require an estimate 
of ECL when the fair value is below the amortized cost of the asset through the use of an allowance to record estimated credit 
losses (and subsequent recoveries). Non-credit related losses will continue to be recognized through OCI.

In addition, the guidance provides for a simplified accounting model for purchased financial assets with a more-than-
insignificant amount of credit deterioration since their origination. The initial estimate of expected credit losses would be 
recognized through an ALLL with an offset (i.e., increase) to the cost basis of the related financial asset at acquisition.

ASU No. 2016-13 will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods. The ASU 
will be applied through a modified-retrospective approach, resulting in a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as 
of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective. A prospective transition approach is required 
for debt securities for which OTTI had been recognized before the effective date. Amounts previously recognized in AOCI as 
of the date of adoption that relate to improvements in cash flows expected to be collected should continue to be accreted into 
income over the remaining life of the asset. Recoveries of amounts previously written off relating to improvements in cash 
flows after the date of adoption should be recorded in earnings when received.

The Company has established a cross-function implementation team and engaged third-party consultants who have jointly 
developed a project plan to provide implementation oversight.  The Company is in the process of developing and implementing 
current expected credit loss models that satisfy the requirements of the ASU and continues to identify key interpretive issues.  
The Company expects that this ASU will result in an increase to ALLL given the change to estimate losses over the full 
remaining estimated life of the loan portfolio as well as the adoption of an allowance for debt securities.  The extent of the 
increase in the ALLL is not yet known and will depend on the composition of our loan and securities portfolios, finalization of 
credit loss models, macroeconomic conditions and forecasts at the adoption date. 

ASU No. 2018-13

In August 2018, the FASB released ASU No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (ASC 820): Disclosure Framework - Changes 
to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement, which eliminates, adds and modifies certain disclosure 
requirements for fair value measurements.

The ASU No. 2018-13 will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods, with 
early adoption permitted.

The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the ASU. While adoption of this ASU will result in changes to existing 
disclosures, it will not have any impact on our financial position or results of operation.

ASU No. 2018-16

In October 2018, the FASB released ASU No. 2018-16, Derivatives and Hedging (ASC 815): Inclusion of the Secured 
Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) Overnight Index Swap (OIS) Rate as a Benchmark Interest Rate for Hedge Accounting 
Purposes, which permits the use of the OIS rate based on SOFR as a U.S. benchmark interest rate for hedge accounting 
purposes under ASC 815 in addition to the interest rates on direct Treasury obligations of the U.S. government (UST), the 
London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) swap rate, the OIS Rate based on the Fed Funds Effective Rate, and the Securities 
Industry and Financial Markets Association (SIFMA) Municipal Swap Rate.

The required effective date of this ASU is dependent upon when an entity adopts the provisions of ASU No. 2017-12. The 
Company adopted ASU No. 2018-16 effective January 1, 2019 on a prospective basis for qualifying new or redesignated 
hedging relations as ASU No. 2017-12 had previously been adopted on January 1, 2018.  The implementation of this ASU will 
not have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

(cid:27)(cid:25)

ASU No. 2018-17

In October 2018, the FASB released ASU No. 2018-17, Consolidation (ASC 810): Targeted Improvements to Related Party 
Guidance for Variable Interest Entities, which improves the consistency of the application of the variable interest entity (VIE) 
related party guidance for common control arrangements.  This ASU requires reporting entities to consider indirect interests 
held through related parties under common control on a proportional basis rather than as the equivalent of a direct interest in its 
entirety (as currently required in GAAP) when determining whether a decision-making fee is a variable interest.

ASU No. 2018-17 will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those 
fiscal years, and early adoption is permitted.  The guidance should be applied retrospectively with a cumulative-effect 
adjustment to retained earnings at the beginning of the earliest period presented.

The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the ASU on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 3 –ACQUISITION ACTIVITY

The acquisitions discussed below qualify as business combinations. The Company accounts for business combinations under 
the acquisition method in accordance with ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations. See Note 1, Summary of Significant 
Accounting Policies, for a description of the Company's accounting for business combinations.

2018 Acquisitions

Acquisition of Gibraltar 

The Company completed the acquisition of Gibraltar Private Bank & Trust Co. ("Gibraltar") on March 23, 2018. The 
acquisition added $1.4 billion in loans and $1.1 billion in deposits, after fair value adjustments. Gibraltar operated eight offices 
in total, with seven located in the Florida metropolitan statistical areas of Miami, Key West, and Naples and one in New York 
City. 

Under the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Merger, Gibraltar common shareholders received 1.9749 shares of 
IBERIABANK Corporation common stock for each outstanding share of Gibraltar common stock. Based on the Company's 
closing common stock price of $77.00 per share on March 23, 2018, the aggregate value of the acquisition consideration paid at 
the time of closing was approximately $214.7 million.

During the first quarter of 2018, the Company recorded preliminary purchase price allocations related to Gibraltar. Throughout 
the remainder of 2018, the Company continued to analyze the valuations assigned to the acquired assets and liabilities assumed. 
Based on new information relating to events or circumstances existing at the acquisition date and revised valuations, the 
Company updated estimated fair values increasing goodwill by $14.6 million to $64.3 million during the fourth quarter of 
2018. This increase is primarily a result of a $17.8 million fair market value adjustment to the acquired loan portfolio. As of 
December 31, 2018, the valuation of the Gibraltar acquisition was final. The following table summarizes the consideration paid 
for Gibraltar's net assets and the fair value estimates of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the 
acquisition date.

Information regarding the allocation of goodwill recorded as a result of the acquisition to the Company's reportable segments is 
provided in Note 9 "Goodwill and Other Acquired Intangible Assets." The goodwill recorded as a result of the acquisition is not 
deductible for tax purposes. 

The following is a description of the methods used to determine the fair values of significant assets acquired and liabilities 
assumed presented above. 

Cash and Cash Equivalents: The carrying amount of these assets is a reasonable estimate of fair value based on the short-term 
nature of these assets. 

Investment Securities: Fair values for securities were based on quoted market prices from multiple bond dealers. The simple 
average of the prices received was used to calculate the adjustments. 

Equity Securities: The carrying amount of these securities is a reasonable estimate of fair value based on the short-term nature 
of these assets. 

Loans: Fair values for loans were based on a discounted cash flow methodology that considered factors including loan type, 
classification status, remaining term of the loan, fixed or variable interest rate, amortization status and current discount rates. 
The discount rates used for loans were based on current market rates for new originations of comparable loans and included 
adjustments for any liquidity concerns. The discount rate did not include an explicit factor for credit losses, as that was included 
as a reduction to the estimated cash flows. 

Core Deposit Intangible Assets ("CDI"): The fair value for CDI was estimated based on a discounted cash flow methodology 
that gave appropriate consideration to expected customer attrition rates, net maintenance cost of the deposit base, alternative 
costs of funds, and the interest costs associated with the customer deposits. The CDI is being amortized over its estimated 
useful life of approximately ten years utilizing an accelerated method. 

Deposit Liabilities: The fair values used for the demand and savings deposits by definition equal the amount payable on 
demand at the acquisition date. Fair values for time deposits were estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis, that applied 
interest rates currently being offered to the contractual interest rates on such time deposits. 

Long-term Borrowings: The carrying amount of long-term borrowings at the acquisition date approximated fair value, as the 
Company immediately paid off the debt upon acquisition. 

Acquisition of SolomonParks

On January 12, 2018, the Company's subsidiary, Lenders Title Company, acquired SolomonParks Title & Escrow, LLC 
("SolomonParks"). Under the terms of the agreement, LTC paid $3.3 million in cash to acquire eight title offices in the 
Nashville, Tennessee area, which resulted in goodwill of $3.4 million.  In addition, the agreement provides for potential 
additional cash consideration of up to $750 thousand based on gross revenues over a two-year period after the acquisition.

Information regarding the allocation of goodwill recorded as a result of these acquisitions to the Company's reportable 
segments is provided in Note 9 "Goodwill and Other Acquired Intangible Assets." The goodwill recorded as a result of these 
acquisitions is not deductible for tax purposes. 

2017 Acquisition 

Acquisition of Sabadell United 

The Company completed the acquisition of Sabadell United Bank, N.A. ("Sabadell United") from Banco de Sabadell, S.A. ("Banco 
Sabadell") on July 31, 2017.  The acquisition added $4.0 billion in loans and $4.4 billion in deposits after fair value adjustments. 
The acquisition expanded the Company's presence in Southeast Florida adding 25 offices serving the Miami metropolitan area 
and three offices in Naples, Sarasota and Tampa. 

Under the terms of the Stock Purchase Agreement, Banco de Sabadell, S.A. received $809.2 million in cash and 2,610,304 
shares of IBERIABANK Corporation common stock in exchange for 100 percent of Sabadell United's common stock. The cash 
consideration was financed through two public common stock offerings completed on December 7, 2016, and March 7, 2017. 

(cid:27)(cid:28)

During the third quarter of 2017, the Company recorded preliminary purchase price allocations related to Sabadell United. 
Throughout the remainder of 2017 and the first six months of 2018, the Company continued to analyze the valuations assigned 
to the acquired assets and liabilities assumed. Based on new information relating to events or circumstances existing at the 
acquisition date and revised valuations, the Company updated estimated fair values decreasing goodwill by $21.0 million to 
$441.0 million during the first six months of 2018. This decrease was primarily a result of a change in the estimated fair value 
of the acquired loans and deferred tax asset. The valuation of the Sabadell United acquisition was final as of June 30, 2018. 

The following table summarizes the consideration paid for Sabadell United's net assets and the fair value estimates of 
identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date. See Note 3, Acquisition Activity, in the 2017 10-K 
for a description of the methods used to determine the fair values of significant assets acquired and liabilities assumed 
presented below.

Information regarding the allocation of goodwill recorded as a result of the acquisition to the Company's reportable segments is 
provided in Note 9 "Goodwill and Other Acquired Intangible Assets." The goodwill recorded as a result of the acquisition is not 
deductible for tax purposes. 

The Company’s consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2018 include the operating results 
of the acquired assets and liabilities assumed. Due to the system conversion of Sabadell United in October of 2017 and 
subsequent streamlining and integration of the operating activities into those of the Company, historical reporting for the former 
Sabadell United operations is impracticable and thus disclosure of the revenue from the assets acquired and income before 
income taxes is impracticable for the period subsequent to acquisition.

(cid:28)(cid:19)

The following table presents unaudited pro forma information as if the acquisition occurred on January 1, 2016. The pro forma 
information does not necessarily reflect the results of operations that would have occurred had the Company acquired Sabadell 
United on January 1, 2016. Furthermore, cost savings and other business synergies related to the acquisition are not reflected in 
the pro forma amounts.

This pro forma information combines the historical consolidated results of operations of IBERIABANK and Sabadell United 
for the periods presented and gives effect to the following non recurring adjustments: 

Fair value adjustments: Pro forma adjustment to net interest income of $20.3 million and $38.8 million for the years ended 
December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively, to record estimated amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts on 
acquired loans, securities, and deposits. 

Sabadell United accretion / amortization: Pro forma adjustment to net interest income of $1.3 million and $4.1 million for the 
years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively, to eliminate Sabadell United's amortization of premiums and accretion 
of discounts on previously acquired loans, securities, FDIC indemnification asset, and deposits.

Sabadell United provision for loan losses: Pro forma adjustments were made to provision for loan losses of $6.4 million and 
$5.9 million for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively, to eliminate the reversal (benefit) of Sabadell 
United's release of provision for loan losses and to account for the provision for loan losses on new loans originated during the 
periods presented. 

Amortization of acquired intangibles: Pro forma adjustment to non-interest expense of $5.9 million and $10.1 million for the 
years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively, to record estimated amortization of acquired intangible assets. 

Other adjustments: Pro forma results also include adjustments related to the removal of benefit from release of reserve for 
unfunded lending commitments, removal of FDIC clawback liability expense, adjustments to FDIC insurance and other 
regulatory assessment expenses and related income tax effects.

The Company assessed the nature of the unrealized losses in its portfolio as of December 31, 2018 and 2017 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, including the issuer’s failures
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.

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 December 31, 2018 or 2017.

At December 31, 2018, 488 debt securities had unrealized losses of 2.38% of the securities’ amortized cost basis. At December 
31, 2017, 544 debt securities had unrealized losses of 1.52% 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 December 31 is presented in the following 
table.

Aging Analysis

The following tables provide an analysis of the aging of loans and leases as of December 31, 2018 and 2017. Past due and 
non-accrual loan amounts exclude acquired impaired loans, even if contractually past due or if the Company does not expect 
to receive payment in full, as the Company is currently accreting interest income over the expected life of the loans.

Acquired Loans 

As discussed in Note 3, during 2017, the Company acquired loans with fair values of $4.0 billion from Sabadell United. 
Certain loans that were acquired in the Sabadell United transaction were covered by loss share agreements between the 
FDIC and Sabadell United. These FDIC loss share agreements were assumed in connection with the Company's acquisition 
of Sabadell United, and afforded  IBERIABANK loss protection. In 2018, the Company terminated its loss share 
agreements with the FDIC. As a result, there were no covered loans at December 31, 2018. Covered loans were $158.6 
million at December 31, 2017. Certain acquired loans from Sabadell United were to customers with addresses outside of the 
United States. Foreign loans, denominated in U.S. dollars, totaled $202.6 million and $325.5 million at December 31, 2018 
and 2017, respectively. 

(cid:28)(cid:26)

During 2018, the Company acquired loans with fair values of $1.4 billion from Gibraltar. Of the total loans acquired, $1.4 
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 $20.7 million were determined to exhibit deteriorated credit quality since origination under ASC 
310-30. The tables below show the fair value estimates of loans acquired from Gibraltar for these two subsections of the
portfolio as of the acquisition date.

Troubled Debt Restructurings

Information about the Company’s TDRs is presented in the following tables. Modifications of loans that are accounted for 
within a pool under ASC Topic 310-30 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 
such acquired loans that would otherwise meet the criteria for classification as a TDR are excluded from the tables below.

TDRs totaling $53.2 million, $70.5 million, and  $222.4 million occurred during the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017, 
and 2016, respectively, through modification of the original loan terms. 

The following table provides information on how the TDRs were modified during the years ended December 31:

Of the $53.2 million of TDRs occurring during the year ended December 31, 2018, $31.5 million were on accrual status and 
$21.7 million were on non-accrual status. Of the $70.5 million of TDRs occurring during the year ended December 31, 
2017, $46.3 million were on accrual status and $24.2 million were on non-accrual status. Of the $222.4 million of TDRs 
occuring during the year ended December 31, 2016, $85.9 million were on accrual status and $136.5 million were on non-

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 through revenues from operations of the businesses, rents of 
properties, sales of properties and refinances. Commercial and industrial 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.

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 non-conforming 1-4 family mortgage loans secured by properties located in the 
Company's market areas and originated under terms and documentation that permit their sale in a secondary market.

Consumer loans are offered by the Company in order to provide a full range of retail financial services to its customers and 
include home equity, credit card and other direct consumer installment loans. The Company originates substantially all of its 
consumer loans in its primary market areas. Loans in the consumer segment are sensitive to unemployment and other key 
consumer economic measures.

(cid:20)(cid:19)(cid:23)

Credit Quality

The Company utilizes an asset risk classification system in accordance with guidelines established by the Federal Reserve 
Board as part of its efforts to monitor commercial asset quality. “Special mention” loans are defined as loans where known 
information about possible credit problems of the borrower cause management to have some doubt as to the ability of these 
borrowers to comply with the present loan repayment terms and which may result in future disclosure of these loans as non-
performing. For assets with identified credit issues, the Company has two primary classifications for problem assets: 
“substandard” and “doubtful.” 

Substandard assets have one or more defined weaknesses and are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Company will 
sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. Doubtful assets have the weaknesses of substandard assets with the 
additional characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full satisfaction of the loan balance outstanding 
questionable, which makes probability of loss higher based on currently existing facts, conditions, and values. Loans classified 
as "Loss" have been identified as uncollectible and in most cases these loans will be charged off in the subsequent reporting 
period. Loans classified as substandard, doubtful, and loss are collectively referred to as classified loans. Criticized loans 
include all classified loans, as well as loans classified as special mention. Loans classified as “Pass” do not meet the criteria set 
forth for special mention, substandard, doubtful, or loss classification and are not considered criticized or classified. Asset risk 
classifications are determined at origination or acquisition and reviewed on an ongoing basis. Risk classifications are changed 
if, in the opinion of management, the risk profile of the customer has changed since the last review of the loan relationship.

The Company’s investment in loans by credit quality indicator is presented in the following tables. Asset risk classifications for 
commercial loans reflect the classification as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Credit quality information in the 
tables below includes total loans acquired (including acquired impaired loans) at the net loan balance, after the application of 
premiums/discounts, at December 31, 2018 and 2017. Loan premiums/discounts represent the adjustment of acquired loans to 
fair value at the acquisition date, as adjusted for income accretion and changes in cash flow estimates in subsequent periods. 

Loan delinquency is the primary credit quality indicator that the Company utilizes to monitor consumer asset quality.

NOTE 7 –TRANSFERS AND SERVICING OF FINANCIAL ASSETS (INCLUDING MORTGAGE BANKING 
ACTIVITY)

Commercial Banking Activity

The unpaid principal balances of loans serviced for others were $1.6 billion and $1.3 billion at December 31, 2018 and 2017, 
respectively. Custodial escrow balances maintained in connection with the foregoing portfolio of loans serviced for others, and 
included in demand deposits, were not significant at December 31, 2018 and 2017.

Mortgage Banking Activity

IBERIABANK through one of its reportable segments, Mortgage, originates mortgage loans for sale into the secondary market. 
The loans originated primarily consist of residential first mortgages that conform to standards established by the GSEs, but can 
also consist of junior lien loans secured by residential property. These sales are primarily to private companies that are 
unaffiliated with the GSEs on a servicing-released basis. Changes to the carrying amount of mortgage loans held for sale at 
December 31 are presented in the following table.

recorded $64.3 million of goodwill based on fair value estimates of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the business 
combination as of December 31, 2018. On January 12, 2018, the Company's subsidiary, LTC, completed its acquisition of 
SolomonParks. In connection with the acquisition, LTC recorded $3.4 million of goodwill based on fair value estimates. In 
addition, measurement period adjustments to fair value estimates related to the acquisition of Sabadell United were updated 
during 2018, reducing goodwill by $21.0 million. The accounting for the acquisitions of Gibraltar, SolomonParks and Sabadell 
United was complete as of December 31, 2018. See Note 3 for additional information regarding these acquisitions. 

The Company performed the required annual goodwill impairment test as of October 1, 2018. The Company’s annual 
impairment test did not indicate impairment in any of the Company’s reporting units as of the testing date. Following the 
testing date, management evaluated the events and changes that could indicate that goodwill might be impaired and concluded 
that a subsequent test was not necessary.

Title Plant

The Company held title plant assets recorded in “other intangible assets” on the Company's consolidated balance sheets totaling 
$6.8 million on December 31, 2018 and $6.7 million at December 31, 2017. The increase in title plant assets was the result of 
the SolomonParks acquisition during the first quarter of 2018. No events or changes in circumstances occurred during 2018 to 
suggest the carrying value of the title plant was not recoverable.

Intangible assets subject to amortization

In connection with the acquisition of Gibraltar, the Company recorded $18.5 million of core deposit intangible assets. Core 
deposit intangible assets are subject to amortization over a ten year period. In connection with the acquisition of SolomonParks, 
the Company recorded $156 thousand of non-compete agreement intangible assets. Non-compete agreement intangible assets 
are subject to amortization over a five year period. Definite-lived intangible assets had the following carrying values included 
in “other intangible assets” on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets as of December 31:

NOTE 10 –DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND OTHER HEDGING ACTIVITIES 

The Company enters into derivative financial instruments to manage interest rate risk, exposures related to liquidity and credit 
risk, and to facilitate customer transactions. The primary types of derivatives utilized by the Company for its risk management 
strategies include interest rate swap agreements, interest rate collars, interest rate floors, foreign exchange contracts, interest 
rate lock commitments, forward sales commitments, written and purchased options, and credit derivatives. All derivative 
instruments are recognized on the consolidated balance sheets as "other assets" or "other liabilities" at fair value, regardless of 
whether a right of offset exists.

Cash flow hedge relationships mitigate exposure to the variability of future cash flows or other forecasted transactions. The 
Company enters into interest rate swap agreements in a cash flow hedge to convert forecasted variable interest payments to a 
fixed rate on its junior subordinated debt. In addition, the Company has entered into an interest rate collar and interest rate 
floors and designated the instruments as cash flow hedges of the risk of fluctuations in interest rates, thereby reducing the 
Company's exposure to variability in cash flows from variable-rate loans.

For cash flow hedges, the effective and ineffective portions 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. Prior to January 1, 2018, the ineffective portion of gain or loss, if 
any, was reported in earnings immediately in either "other income" or "other expense," respectively. 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 has entered into risk participation agreements with counterparties to transfer or assume credit exposures related 
to interest rate derivatives. The notional amounts of risk participation agreements sold were $85.6 million and $86.7 million at 
December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Assuming all underlying third party customers referenced in the swap contracts 
defaulted at December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the exposure from these agreements would not be material based on 
the fair value of the underlying swaps.

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.

At December 31, 2018, the Company was not required to post collateral due to the Company's derivative position at the balance 
sheet date. At December 31, 2017, the Company was required to post $552 thousand in cash or securities as collateral for its 
derivative transactions, which is included in "interest-bearing deposits in banks" on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. 
Effective January 3, 2017, the Chicago Mercantile Exchange and LCH.Clearnet Limited amended their rulebooks to legally 
characterize variation margin payments for over-the-counter derivatives they clear as settlements of the derivatives' exposure 
rather than collateral against the exposures. In light of changes to the aforementioned rulebooks, the Board of Governors of the 
Federal Reserve System, the OCC and the FDIC issued guidance effective August 14, 2017, which is consistent with the SEC's 
accounting guidance, that allows institutions to treat centrally-cleared derivatives as settled for purposes of the capital rule. At 
December 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company was required to post $35.8 million and $5.1 million, respectively, in variation 
margin payments for its derivative transactions, which is required to be netted against the fair value of the derivatives in "other 
assets/other liabilities" on the 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 December 31, 2018. 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.

During the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, 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 December 31, 2018, the Company does not expect to reclassify a material amount from accumulated other comprehensive 
income into interest income over the next twelve months for derivatives that will be settled.

basis, depending on funding needs and which sources are used to satisfy those needs. All such arrangements are considered 
typical of the banking and brokerage industries and are accounted for as borrowings.

Securities sold under agreements to repurchase, which are classified as secured borrowings, generally mature daily and are 
reflected at the amount of cash received in connection with the transaction. The Company may be required to provide 
additional collateral based on the fair value of the underlying securities.

The interest rate on the Company’s long-term debt indexed to LIBOR is based on the 3-month LIBOR rate. The 3-month
LIBOR rate was 2.81% and 1.69% at December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

Outstanding FHLB advances are a mix of bullet and amortizing structures. Amortizing FHLB advances are amortized over 
periods ranging from 1.3 to 20.1 years, and have a balloon feature at maturity. Advances are collateralized by a blanket pledge 
of eligible loans, subject to contractual adjustments which reduce the borrowing base, as well as a secondary pledge of FHLB 
stock and FHLB demand deposits, the amount of which can exceed the amounts borrowed based on contractually required 
adjustments. Total additional FHLB advances for both short-term borrowings and long-term debt at December 31, 2018 were 
$7.0 billion under the blanket floating lien including $1.9 billion from pledges of investment securities. The weighted average 
advance rate was 2.15% and 1.48% at December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

Junior subordinated debt consists of a total of $120.1 million in Junior Subordinated Deferrable Interest Debentures of the 
Company issued to statutory trusts that were funded by the issuance of floating rate capital securities of the trusts. The terms of 
the junior subordinated debt are 30 years, and they are callable at par by the Company any time after 5 years. 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 a 
deferral period, the Company is subject to certain restrictions, including being prohibited from declaring and paying dividends 
to its common shareholders.

There was a balance receivable of $208.0 million and $4.5 million for federal and state income taxes at December 31, 2018 and 
2017, respectively. The provision for federal income taxes differs from the amount computed by applying the federal income 
tax statutory rate of 21 percent for the year ended December 31, 2018 and 35 percent for the years ended December 31, 2017 
and 2016 on income before income tax expense as indicated in the following analysis for the years ended December 31:

(1) The composition of other items resulting in a net tax benefit of $60.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2018 included
a $6.6 million expense related to the finalization of accounting for the Sabadell United acquisition and its net impact from the
remeasurement of deferred tax assets as a result of the passage of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the "Tax Act"). In connection with
filing its 2017 income tax returns, the Company recorded a non-core, permanent net income tax benefit of $65.3 million as a
result of deductions claimed on the 2017 income tax returns associated with unrealized losses on securities and loans and
depreciation on real and personal property.

The composition of other items resulting in a net tax expense of $46.4 million for the year ending December 31, 2017 included 
$51.0 million related to the estimated net impact from the remeasurement of deferred tax assets and liabilities as a result of the 
passage of the Tax Act in December 2017. This was partially offset by $3.0 million related to equity based compensation, $1.0 
million resulting from the reversal of a prior year deferred tax asset impairment, and a $600 thousand benefit due to a deferred 
REIT distribution.

Net deferred tax (liability) asset

$

At December 31, 2018, the Company's cumulative net operating loss carryforwards were $45.0 million. These net operating 
loss carryforwards arising from acquisitions during 2015 expire over a 20-year period and will be utilized subject to annual 
Internal Revenue Code Section 382 limitations. No benefit was recognized at acquisition for net operating losses that will 
expire unused due to the IRS limitations.

At December 31, 2018, the Company had recorded a net deferred tax liability position. The Company determined that the net 
deferred tax asset at December 31, 2017 was more likely than not to be realized based on an assessment of all available positive 
and negative evidence, and therefore, no valuation allowance was recorded.

The Company does not believe it has any unrecognized tax benefits included in its consolidated financial statements. The 
Company has not had any settlements in the current period with taxing authorities, nor has it recognized tax benefits as a result 
of a lapse of the applicable statute of limitations.

During the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, an immaterial amount of interest and penalty expense associated with 
state filings was recorded. During the year ended December 31, 2016, the Company did not recognize any interest or penalties 
in its consolidated financial statements.

1(cid:21)(cid:21)

On December 22, 2017, the Tax Act was signed into law. Under ASC 740, the effects of changes in tax rates and laws are 
recognized in the period in which the new legislation is enacted. In the case of U.S. federal income taxes, the enactment date is 
the date the bill becomes law (i.e., upon presidential signature). Among other provisions, the most significant to the Company 
is the reduction of the corporate income tax rate from 35% to 21%. With respect to the legislation, the Company recognized a 
provisional one-time increase in tax expense of $51.0 million as of December 31, 2017 due to a re-measurement of deferred tax 
assets and liabilities resulting from the decrease in the corporate income tax rate. During the year ended December 31, 2018, 
the Company recognized a total adjustment of $6.6 million in income tax expense due to the write-down of deferred tax assets 
associated with the finalization of the accounting for the Sabadell United acquisition and the related impact of the Tax Act on 
those adjustments. This adjustment increased the year-to-date effective tax rate by 1.6% from 6.4% to 8.0%. Consistent with 
the guidance provided under ASC 740, the Company recorded impacts from enactment of the Tax Act in the fourth quarter of 
2017 subject to Staff Accounting Bulletin 118, Income Tax Accounting Implications of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act ("SAB 118"). 
SAB 118 provided a measurement period not to extend beyond one year of the enactment date to adjust the accounting for 
certain elements of the tax reform. The Company filed its 2017 federal and state tax returns in the fourth quarter of 2018, after 
which it was able to finalize deferred tax balances subject to the remeasurement under the Tax Act. The accounting for the tax 
effects of the Tax Act was complete as of December 22, 2018.

Common Stock

During the second quarter of 2018, the Company's Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to 1,137,500 shares of 
IBERIABANK Corporation's outstanding common stock, which was completed on November 5, 2018. On November 5, 2018, 
the Board of Directors authorized a new repurchase plan of up to 2,765,000 shares of the Company's common stock. Stock 
repurchases under this program will be made from time to time, on the open market or in privately negotiated transactions. The 
timing of these repurchases will depend on market conditions and other requirements. The share repurchase program does not 
obligate the Company to repurchase any dollar amount or number of shares, and expires during the fourth quarter of 2020. The 
program may be extended, modified, suspended, or discontinued at any time. During 2018, the Company repurchased 
1,972,500 common shares, at a weighted average price of $75.46 per common share, of which 1,472,500 were repurchased 
under previously completed plans. At December 31, 2018, there were approximately 2,265,000 remaining shares that may be 
repurchased under the current Board-approved plan. Subsequent to year-end and through February 21, 2019, the Company 
repurchased 226,921 common shares for approximately $17.5 million. The Company did not repurchase any common shares 
during 2017.

On March 23, 2018, as part of the Gibraltar acquisition, the Company issued 2,787,773 shares of common stock. The aggregate 
value of the acquisition consideration paid by the Company at the time of closing was approximately $214.7 million based on 
the Company's closing common stock price of $77.00 per share on March 23, 2018. Gibraltar common shareholders received 
1.9749 shares of IBERIABANK Corporation common stock for each outstanding share of Gibraltar common stock. Refer to 
Note 3, Acquisition Activity, for further detail regarding the Gibraltar acquisition.

On December 7, 2016, the Company issued 3,593,750 shares of its common stock at a price of $81.50 per common share. On 
March 7, 2017, the Company issued 6,100,000 shares of its common stock at a price of $83.00 per common share. Net 
proceeds from the offerings, after deduction of underwriting discounts, commissions, and direct issuance costs, were $279.2 
million and  $485.2 million, respectively. The proceeds from these issuances were used to finance the cash portion of the 
purchase price for the acquisition of Sabadell United. The acquisition, which closed on July 31, 2017, provided for Banco de 
Sabadell, S.A. to receive 2,610,304 shares of the Company's common stock ($211.0 million based on the Company's closing 
stock price of $80.85 on that date) and $809.2 million in cash from the two stock issuances. Banco de Sabadell, S.A. sold the 
2.6 million shares received as part of acquisition proceeds early in the fourth quarter of 2017. Refer to Note 3, Acquisition 
Activity, for further detail regarding the Sabadell United acquisition.

Regulatory Capital

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 consolidated 
financial statements. Under capital adequacy regulations 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.

Management believes that, as of December 31, 2018, the Company and IBERIABANK met all capital adequacy requirements 
to which they are subject.

As of December 31, 2018, the most recent notification from the FRB categorized IBERIABANK as well-capitalized under the 
regulatory framework for prompt corrective action (the prompt corrective action requirements are not applicable to the 
Company). 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 December 31 are presented in the following table.

(1) Minimum capital ratios are subject to a capital conservation buffer. In order to avoid limitations on distributions, including
dividend payments, and certain discretionary bonus payments to executive officers, an institution must hold a capital
conservation buffer above its minimum risk-based capital requirements. This capital conservation buffer is calculated as the
lowest of the differences between the actual CET1 ratio, Tier 1 Risk-Based Capital Ratio, and Total Risk-Based Capital ratio
and the corresponding minimum ratios. At December 31, 2018, the required minimum capital conservation buffer was 1.875%,
and will increase by 0.625% and be fully phased in on January 1, 2019 at 2.50%. At December 31, 2018, the capital
conservation buffers of the Company and IBERIABANK were 4.33% and 3.58%, respectively.

Restrictions on Dividends, Loans and Advances

IBERIABANK is restricted under applicable laws in the payment of dividends to an amount equal to current year earnings plus 
undistributed earnings for the immediately preceding year, unless prior permission is received from the Commissioner of 
Financial Institutions for the State of Louisiana. Dividends payable by IBERIABANK in 2019 without permission are limited 
to 2019 earnings plus an additional $130.0 million.

Funds available for loans or advances by IBERIABANK to the Parent amounted to $288.9 million. In addition, any dividends 
that may be paid by IBERIABANK to the Parent would be restricted if IBERIABANK did not comply with the above-
described capital conservation buffer requirements and would be prohibited if the effect thereof would cause IBERIABANK’s 
capital to be reduced below applicable minimum capital requirements.

During any deferral period under the Company’s junior subordinated debt, the Company would be prohibited from declaring 
and paying dividends to preferred and common shareholders. See Note 13 to the consolidated financial statements for 
additional information.

In addition, so long as any shares of Series B Preferred Stock or Series C Preferred Stock remain outstanding, the Company is 
prohibited from paying dividends on common stock if the required payments on the Series B Preferred Stock and Series C 
Preferred Stock have not been made. 

1(cid:21)(cid:25)

NOTE 16 –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 years ended December 31, 2018, 2017, and 2016, the calculations for basic shares outstanding exclude the weighted 
average shares owned by the RRP of 564,973, 467,601, and 447,818, respectively.

The effects from the assumed exercises of 154,397, 71,260, and 155,969 stock options were not included in the computation of 
diluted earnings per share for the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017, and 2016, respectively, because such amounts would 
have had an antidilutive effect on earnings per common share.

NOTE 17 – 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, and phantom stock. 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 December 31, 2018, awards of 1,162,931 shares could be made under approved incentive 
compensation plans. The Company issues shares to fulfill stock option exercises and restricted share units and restricted stock 
awards vesting from available authorized common shares. At December 31, 2018, the Company believes there are adequate 
authorized shares to satisfy anticipated stock option exercises and restricted share unit and restricted stock award vesting.

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.

The following table represents the activity related to stock options during the periods indicated:

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 (generally three to five years). As of December 31, 2018 and 2017, unrecognized share-based compensation expense 
associated with these awards totaled $27.1 million and $31.9 million, respectively. The unrecognized compensation expense 
related to restricted stock awards at December 31, 2018 is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.3 
years.

Restricted share units

The Company issues 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 performance conditions set forth in the restricted share unit 
agreements. 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. See 
Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, for further discussion of restricted share units with market or performance 
conditions.

The following table represents the compensation expense that was included in non-interest expense and related income tax 
benefits in the accompanying consolidated statements of comprehensive income related to restricted stock awards and restricted 
share units for the years ended December 31:

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 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 accumulated 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.

The following table represents compensation expense recorded for phantom stock based on the number of share equivalents 
vested at December 31 of the years 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 $64.28, $77.50 and $83.75 on December 31, 2018, 2017, and 2016, respectively.

401(k) defined contribution plan

The Company has a 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan covering substantially all of its employees. Annual employer contributions to 
the Plan are set by the Board of Directors. The Company made contributions of $3.7 million, $3.5 million, and $1.9 million for 
the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017, and 2016, respectively. The Plan provides, among other things, that participants in 
the Plan be able to direct the investment of their account balances within the Profit Sharing Plan into alternative investment 
funds. Participant deferrals under the salary reduction election may be matched by the employer based on a percentage to be 
determined annually by the employer.

NOTE 18 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Off-balance sheet commitments

In the normal course of business, to meet the financing needs of its customers, the Company is a party to credit-related financial 
instruments, with risk not reflected in the consolidated financial statements. 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 December 31, 2018 and 2017, the fair value 
of guarantees under commercial and standby letters of credit was $2.4 million and $2.1 million, respectively. This fair value 
will decrease as the existing commercial and standby letters of credit approach their expiration dates.

At December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively, the Company had the following financial instruments outstanding and related 
reserves, 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 by the borrower. 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 not be drawn upon to the total extent to which the Company is committed. See Note 6, 
Allowance for Credit Losses and Credit Quality, for additional information related to the Company’s reserve for unfunded 
lending commitments.

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 guarantees 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. When necessary, they are collateralized, 
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, 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. The Company has asserted defenses to these claims 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.

1(cid:22)(cid:20)

In July of 2016, the Company received a subpoena from the Office of Inspector General of the U.S. Department of Housing and 
Urban Development (“HUD”) requesting information on certain previously originated loans insured by the Federal Housing 
Administration ("FHA") as well as other documents regarding the Company's FHA-related policies and practices. After the 
Company complied with the subpoena, attorneys from the Department of Justice (“DOJ”) informed the Company in late March 
of 2017 that a civil qui tam suit had been filed against the Company in federal court involving the subject matter of the HUD 
subpoena. The HUD lawsuit was settled on December 11, 2017 in the amount of $11.7 million. On February 2, 2018, 
IBERIABANK filed a lawsuit in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Louisiana (New Orleans) against 
Illinois Union Insurance Company and Travelers Casualty and Surety Company of America in an effort to recover the $11.7 
million it paid to settle the HUD matter. IBERIABANK filed that lawsuit to recover the insurance proceeds to which it claims 
to be entitled under certain Bankers’ Professional Liability insurance policies issued by defendants Illinois Union and Travelers. 
More specifically, IBERIABANK alleges that the insurers have failed to honor their obligations under the policies to pay 
IBERIABANK’s losses in connection with the $11.7 million settlement of disputed allegations relating to IBERIABANK’s 
professional services in connection with certain mortgage loans insured by the FHA. The judge in the federal lawsuit granted a 
motion for summary judgment thereby dismissing the case. The Company is considering whether to appeal or not.

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 and available insurance coverage, the Company’s management believes that it has 
established appropriate legal reserves. Any incremental 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, 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 and reported as of December 31, 2018 is not material.

The tables above exclude the initial measurement of assets and liabilities that were acquired as part of the business 
combinations disclosed in Note 3, Acquisition Activity. 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, deposits, 
property, and equipment) or Level 3 fair value measurements (loans, core deposit intangible assets, and debt). Refer to Note 3, 
Acquisition Activity, for further detail. 

The Company did not record any liabilities at fair value for which measurement of the fair value was made on a non-recurring 
basis as of December 31, 2018 and 2017.

Fair value option

The Company has elected the fair value option for 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 Company also has a portion of mortgage loans held for 
investment for which the fair value option was elected upon origination and continue to be accounted for at fair value at 
December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. 

The following table summarizes the difference between the aggregate fair value and the aggregate unpaid principal balance for

NOTE 20 – 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. Consequently, the 
aggregate fair value amounts presented may not necessarily represent the underlying fair value of the Company.

The carrying amount and estimated fair values, as well as the level within the fair value hierarchy, of the Company’s financial 
instruments are included in the tables below. See Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, for a description of how 
fair value measurements are determined, except for loans, amended upon implementation of ASU 2016-01, Financial 
Statements - Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. See Note 
2, Recent Accounting Pronouncements, in this Report for a description of how the fair value measurement is determined for 
loans beginning January 1, 2018.

The fair value estimates presented herein are based upon pertinent information available to management as of December 31, 
2018 and 2017. Although management is not aware of any factors that would significantly affect the estimated fair value 
amounts, such amounts have not been comprehensively revalued for purposes of these financial statements since these dates 
and, therefore, current estimates of fair value may differ significantly from the amounts presented herein.

NOTE 21 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS 

In the ordinary course of business, the Company may execute transactions with various related parties. Examples of such 
transactions may include lending or deposit arrangements, transfers of financial assets, services for administrative support, and 
other miscellaneous items.

The Company has granted loans to executive officers and directors and their affiliates. These loans, including the related 
principal additions, principal payments, and unfunded commitments are not material to the consolidated financial statements at 
December 31, 2018 and 2017. There were no outstanding loans to such related parties classified as non-accrual, past due, or 
troubled debt restructurings at December 31, 2018. 

Deposits from related parties held by the Company were not material at December 31, 2018 and 2017.

1(cid:22)(cid:27)

NOTE 22 – BUSINESS SEGMENTS

Each of the Company’s reportable operating segments 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 primarily reflect the manner in which resources are allocated and 
performance is assessed.  Further, the reportable operating segments are also determined based on the quantitative thresholds 
prescribed within ASC Topic 280, Segment Reporting, and consideration of the usefulness of the information to the users of the 
consolidated financial statements. 

The Company reports the results of its operations through three reportable segments: IBERIABANK, Mortgage, 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. The Mortgage 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 
methods that reflect utilization.  Also within IBERIABANK are certain reconciling items that 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.

Dividend Restrictions
The majority of the Company’s revenue is from dividends declared 
and paid to the Company by its subsidiary, IBERIABANK, which is 
subject to laws and regulations that limit the amount of dividends 
and  other  distributions  it  can  pay.  In  addition,  the  Company 
and  IBERIABANK  are  required  to  maintain  capital  at  or  above 
regulatory  minimums  and  IBERIABANK  must  remain  “well-capitalized”  under  prompt  corrective  action  regulations.  The 
declaration  and  payment  of  dividends  on  the  Company’s  capital  stock  also  is  subject  to  contractual  restrictions.  While  the 
Company has Series B preferred stock and Series C preferred stock outstanding, the Company may not declare and pay a 
dividend on its common stock unless dividends on all such outstanding preferred stock have been declared and paid in full or 
declared and a sum sufficient for the payment of those dividends has been set aside. See also Note 13- Long-Term Debt, Note 
15- Shareholders' Equity, Capital Ratios and Other Regulatory Matters, and Management’s Discussion and Analysis - Funding
