What This Data Says About Middle Tennessee
Charter #19700, peer group $50M–$100M, a cohort of 584 similarly-sized institutions: that's Middle Tennessee, a federal credit union in COOKEVILLE, Tennessee with 5,532 members, $68.6M in total assets, and $36.9M in outstanding loans as of Q4 2025. The five-factor composite scores it 87/100 (Excellent), helped by a net worth ratio of 16.44% - above the 7.0% NCUA "well capitalized" threshold under Prompt Corrective Action rules.
Loan book quality rounds out the picture. The delinquency rate of 1.17% 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 looser than peers. The loan-to-share ratio of 64.44% 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 2.16% on net income of $1.5M 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 0.24%. Reported quarterly to the NCUA, this data reflects the 2025Q4 Call Report period. Eligibility to join runs through the field of membership (currently: Community) - see our disclaimer before opening an account or borrowing, for NCUSIF coverage details and data usage notes.
