What This Data Says About Penn

Penn is a federal credit union headquartered in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, serving 6,645 members with $54.5M in total assets and $18.6M 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 22.37% - above the 7.0% NCUA "well capitalized" threshold under Prompt Corrective Action rules. Charter #20207 operates under peer group $50M–$100M, a cohort of 584 similarly-sized institutions.

On loan book quality: 1.84% of loans are 60+ days past due against the total loan book - the peer group average for $50M–$100M credit unions sits at 0.963%, so this institution is running looser than peers. Meanwhile a 46.68% loan-to-share ratio shows how aggressively member deposits get deployed into lending, below the 60% band that typically signals under-deployed capital. Return on assets stands at -0.08% on net income of $-45022 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 0.87%. 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.
