What This Data Says About Hema
Hema is a federal credit union headquartered in SILVER SPRING, Maryland, serving 1,789 members with $16.5M in total assets and $7.3M in outstanding loans as of Q4 2025. Based on its five-factor composite, the institution earns a health score of 68/100 (Good), anchored by a net worth ratio of 9.73% - above the 7.0% NCUA "well capitalized" threshold under Prompt Corrective Action rules. Charter #19514 operates under peer group $10M–$50M, a cohort of 1163 similarly-sized institutions.
Two more numbers round out the picture: a 0.65% delinquency rate (loans 60+ days past due against the total book) - the peer group average for $10M–$50M credit unions sits at 1.145%, so this institution is running tighter than peers - and a 49.39% loan-to-share ratio, below the 60% band that typically signals under-deployed capital. Return on assets stands at -0.08% on net income of $-14003 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 -4.48%. Reported quarterly to the NCUA, this data reflects the 2025Q4 Call Report period.
