The delinquency rate of 0.66% 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. Return on assets comes in at 0.00%, reflecting the not-for-profit cooperative model where surplus earnings flow back to members as better rates and lower fees rather than to shareholders. The loan-to-share ratio of 79.67% 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.

Every deposit account at NOVATION is federally insured by the National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund (NCUSIF) up to $250,000 per depositor, per ownership category — identical coverage to FDIC insurance at banks.
