What This Data Says About Tri County Area

Charter #6269, peer group $100M–$500M, a cohort of 1069 similarly-sized institutions: that's Tri County Area, a federal credit union in POTTSTOWN, Pennsylvania with 12,706 members, $201.6M in total assets, and $111.1M in outstanding loans as of Q4 2025. The five-factor composite scores it 93/100 (Excellent), helped by a net worth ratio of 10.88% - above the 7.0% NCUA "well capitalized" threshold under Prompt Corrective Action rules.

Loan book quality rounds out the picture. The delinquency rate of 0.27% 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. The loan-to-share ratio of 61.85% 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. Return on assets stands at 1.17% on net income of $2.4M 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 0.62%. The quarterly NCUA 5300 Call Report is the source for everything above, current through 2025Q4.
