0.00% of the loan book sits 60+ days past due, the headline loan-quality read - the peer group average for $2M–$10M credit unions sits at 1.809%, so this institution is running tighter than peers.

Return on assets stands at 0.05% on net income of $1K 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.
