Based on its five-factor composite, the institution earns a health score of 81/100 (Excellent), anchored by a net worth ratio of 17.92% - above the 7.0% NCUA "well capitalized" threshold under Prompt Corrective Action rules. Charter #20691 operates under peer group $10M–$50M, a cohort of 1163 similarly-sized institutions.
1.56% of the loan book sits 60+ days past due, the headline loan-quality read - the peer group average for $10M–$50M credit unions sits at 1.145%, so this institution is running looser than peers. Deposit deployment is captured by the 43.61% loan-to-share ratio, below the 60% band that typically signals under-deployed capital. Return on assets stands at 1.46% on net income of $502K 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 0.84%. These figures come from the 2025Q4 NCUA 5300 Call Report, filed on a quarterly cadence. The stated field of membership (currently: Community) governs who can join. Before opening an account or borrowing, see our disclaimer for NCUSIF deposit-insurance coverage and how to use this data.
