What This Data Says About Avanti
Headquartered in WATERTOWN, South Dakota, Avanti is a federal credit union with 2,967 members, $31.5M in total assets, and $19.6M in outstanding loans on the books as of Q4 2025. Its five-factor composite puts the health score at 81/100 (Excellent), driven in part by a net worth ratio of 10.96% - above the 7.0% NCUA "well capitalized" threshold under Prompt Corrective Action rules. It carries charter #8801 and reports within peer group $10M–$50M, a cohort of 1163 similarly-sized institutions.
Deposits deployed into lending sit at a 70.25% loan-to-share ratio, within the 60-80% range most industry analysts consider optimally balanced between yield and liquidity. Loan quality, meanwhile, shows 2.97% of the book 60+ days past due - the peer group average for $10M–$50M credit unions sits at 1.145%, so this institution is running looser than peers. Return on assets stands at 1.08% on net income of $342K 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 6.31%. The institution reports against the NCUA 5300 Call Report on a quarterly cadence; the figures above reflect the 2025Q4 reporting period. Membership eligibility depends on the stated field of membership (currently: Community).
