What This Data Says About Americo
Americo is a federal credit union headquartered in ERIE, Pennsylvania, serving 7,392 members with $88.3M in total assets and $29.4M in outstanding loans as of Q4 2025. Based on its five-factor composite, the institution earns a health score of 81/100 (Excellent), anchored by a net worth ratio of 12.01% - above the 7.0% NCUA "well capitalized" threshold under Prompt Corrective Action rules. Charter #12752 operates under peer group $50M–$100M, a cohort of 584 similarly-sized institutions.
Loan book quality rounds out the picture. The delinquency rate of 0.84% measures loans 60+ days past due against total loans outstanding - the peer group average for $50M–$100M credit unions sits at 0.963%, so this institution is running tighter than peers. The loan-to-share ratio of 38.31% indicates how aggressively member deposits are being deployed into lending, below the 60% band that typically signals under-deployed capital. Return on assets stands at 0.51% on net income of $452K for the period; a not-for-profit cooperative typically runs a modest positive ROA, returning surplus to members through better rates and lower fees rather than to shareholders.
Year-over-year membership changed by -2.25%. These figures come from the 2025Q4 NCUA 5300 Call Report, filed on a quarterly cadence. The stated field of membership (currently: Community) governs who can join. Before opening an account or borrowing, see our disclaimer for NCUSIF deposit-insurance coverage and how to use this data.
