What This Data Says About Eco

The five-factor composite scores Eco at 46/100 (Below Average), reflecting a net worth ratio of 0.03% - relative to the 7.0% NCUA "well capitalized" threshold under Prompt Corrective Action rules. This state credit union, headquartered in Birmingham, Alabama, reports 14,830 members, $187.9M in total assets, and $99.3M in outstanding loans as of Q4 2025 under charter #65464 (peer group $100M–$500M, a cohort of 1069 similarly-sized institutions).

Loan book quality rounds out the picture. The delinquency rate of 0.82% measures loans 60+ days past due against total loans outstanding - the peer group average for $100M–$500M credit unions sits at 0.894%, so this institution is running tighter than peers. The loan-to-share ratio of 56.65% indicates how aggressively member deposits are being deployed into lending, below the 60% band that typically signals under-deployed capital. Return on assets stands at 0.31% on net income of $586K 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.
