What This Data Says About Cosden

Cosden is a federal credit union headquartered in BIG SPRING, Texas, serving 4,213 members with $59.4M in total assets and $33.0M in outstanding loans as of Q4 2025. Based on its five-factor composite, the institution earns a health score of 84/100 (Excellent), anchored by a net worth ratio of 11.21% - above the 7.0% NCUA "well capitalized" threshold under Prompt Corrective Action rules. Charter #1750 operates under peer group $50M–$100M, a cohort of 584 similarly-sized institutions.

Loan book quality rounds out the picture. The delinquency rate of 0.40% 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 63.97% indicates how aggressively member deposits are being deployed into lending, within the 60-80% range most industry analysts consider optimally balanced between yield and liquidity. Return on assets stands at 1.27% on net income of $754K 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 -7.26%. 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.
