Two more numbers round out the picture: a 0.39% delinquency rate (loans 60+ days past due against the total book) - the peer group average for $100M–$500M credit unions sits at 0.894%, so this institution is running tighter than peers - and a 59.21% loan-to-share ratio, below the 60% band that typically signals under-deployed capital.
