What This Data Says About Apl
Charter #9475, peer group Over $500M, a cohort of 749 similarly-sized institutions: that's Apl, a federal credit union in Laurel, Maryland with 30,919 members, $697.8M in total assets, and $456.9M in outstanding loans as of Q4 2025. The five-factor composite scores it 95/100 (Excellent), helped by a net worth ratio of 11.34% - above the 7.0% NCUA "well capitalized" threshold under Prompt Corrective Action rules.
Two more numbers round out the picture: a 0.51% delinquency rate (loans 60+ days past due against the total book) - the peer group average for Over $500M credit unions sits at 0.874%, so this institution is running tighter than peers - and a 73.98% loan-to-share ratio, within the 60-80% range most industry analysts consider optimally balanced between yield and liquidity. Return on assets stands at 0.77% on net income of $5.3M 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 1.16%. All of the above reflects the 2025Q4 quarterly NCUA 5300 Call Report. Who can join depends on the field of membership (currently: Community); our disclaimer covers NCUSIF deposit-insurance coverage and how to use this data responsibly.
