Alternative ways to invest in Heartland Financial USA
Buying shares in just one company is generally considered a riskier bet than investing in a range of investments - AKA a "diversified portfolio". Experts generally recommend holding a mix of investments in specific assets and funds. Funds are ready-made portfolios of multiple companies' shares (potentially including Heartland Financial USA), and the idea is that drops in the value of one constituent company's share price might be offset by rises in others.
Heartland Financial USA is a major part of the NASDAQ, so it's included in many global funds and investment trusts, as well as tracker-style exchange traded funds (ETFs).

Forward annual dividend yield: 1.8% of stock value
Dividend payout ratio: 26.09% of net profits
Heartland Financial USA has recently paid out dividends equivalent to 1.80% of its share value annually.
Heartland Financial USA has paid out, on average, around 26.09% of recent net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 1.8% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), shareholders could enjoy a 1.8% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Heartland Financial USA's case, that would currently equate to about 1.2 per share.
While Heartland Financial USA's payout ratio might seem fairly standard, it's worth remembering that it may be investing much of the rest of its net profits in future growth.
Heartland Financial USA's most recent dividend payout was on 26 January 2025. To be eligible for the latest dividend you would need to have been a shareholder at 13 January 2025 (the "ex-dividend date").
Heartland Financial USA's fiscal year ends in December.
Heartland Financial USA's address is: 1800 Larimer Street, Denver, CO, United States, 80202
Heartland Financial USA's shares were split on a 3:2 basis on 29 December 2003. So if you had owned 2 shares the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 3 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Heartland Financial USA shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 33.3% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for Heartland Financial USA shares which in turn could have impacted Heartland Financial USA's share price.
