The five-factor composite scores it 80/100 (Excellent), helped by a net worth ratio of 12.86% - above the 7.0% NCUA "well capitalized" threshold under Prompt Corrective Action rules.
0.19% 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 tighter than peers. Deposit deployment is captured by the 40.82% loan-to-share ratio, below the 60% band that typically signals under-deployed capital. Return on assets stands at 0.45% on net income of $55K 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.
