What This Data Says About Valley

The five-factor composite scores Valley at 94/100 (Excellent), reflecting a net worth ratio of 13.20% - above the 7.0% NCUA "well capitalized" threshold under Prompt Corrective Action rules. This federal credit union, headquartered in Brownsville, Texas, reports 9,380 members, $112.4M in total assets, and $71.0M in outstanding loans as of Q4 2025 under charter #850 (peer group $100M–$500M, a cohort of 1069 similarly-sized institutions).

On loan book quality: 0.67% of loans are 60+ days past due against the total loan book - the peer group average for $100M–$500M credit unions sits at 0.894%, so this institution is running tighter than peers. Meanwhile a 73.50% loan-to-share ratio shows how aggressively member deposits get deployed into lending, within the 60-80% range most industry analysts consider optimally balanced between yield and liquidity. Return on assets stands at 0.63% on net income of $713K 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 1.44%. All of the above reflects the 2025Q4 quarterly NCUA 5300 Call Report. Who can join depends on the field of membership (currently: Multiple Common Bond); our disclaimer covers NCUSIF deposit-insurance coverage and how to use this data responsibly.
