Concerns (3)

Liquidity Strain

risk
#123 of 643 • Bottom 19.0% in tier

Loan-to-deposit ratio above 90% - loan demand outpacing deposits. Bumping against liquidity limits, funding solutions needed.

Why this signature
Loan-to-Deposit Ratio: 93.23%
(Tier: 76.64%, National: 76.70%)
worse than tier avg
643 of 643 Community banks match · 1013 nationally
→ Stable -50 banks QoQ | QoQ rank improving

Cost Spiral

risk
#33 of 126 • Bottom 25.4% in tier

Historically lean operator (efficiency < 75%) now seeing 5+ point efficiency ratio increase YoY despite strong profitability. Efficiency advantage eroding.

Why this signature
Efficiency Ratio: 61.82%
(Tier: 65.29%, National: 66.95%)
better than tier avg
126 of 126 Community banks match · 176 nationally

Flatlined Growth

risk
#139 of 512 • Bottom 27.0% in tier

Asset growth stalled (-2% to +2% YoY) despite healthy profitability (>0.25% ROA). Suggests untapped opportunity or strategic drift worth investigating.

Why this signature
Return on Assets: 0.94%
(Tier: 1.27%, National: 1.23%)
worse than tier avg
512 of 512 Community banks match · 687 nationally
