What This Data Says About Tandem
2,192 members and $22.4M in total assets sit behind Tandem, a federal credit union in Warren, Michigan, which posts a health score of 61/100 (Good) on the five-factor composite, with $7.4M in outstanding loans as of Q4 2025 and a net worth ratio of 16.31% - above the 7.0% NCUA "well capitalized" threshold under Prompt Corrective Action rules. The credit union operates under charter #4787 in peer group $10M–$50M, a cohort of 1163 similarly-sized institutions.
Loan book quality rounds out the picture. The delinquency rate of 2.57% measures loans 60+ days past due against total loans outstanding - the peer group average for $10M–$50M credit unions sits at 1.145%, so this institution is running looser than peers. The loan-to-share ratio of 38.83% indicates how aggressively member deposits are being deployed into lending, below the 60% band that typically signals under-deployed capital. Return on assets stands at -1.02% on net income of $-229267 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 2.86%. The quarterly NCUA 5300 Call Report is the source for everything above, current through 2025Q4.
