The five-factor composite scores it 85/100 (Excellent), helped by a net worth ratio of 9.45% - above the 7.0% NCUA "well capitalized" threshold under Prompt Corrective Action rules.
On loan book quality: 0.67% of loans are 60+ days past due against the total loan book - the peer group average for $50M–$100M credit unions sits at 0.963%, so this institution is running tighter than peers. Meanwhile a 55.91% loan-to-share ratio shows how aggressively member deposits get deployed into lending, below the 60% band that typically signals under-deployed capital. Return on assets stands at 0.99% on net income of $968K 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.
