Concerns (5)

Margin Compression

decline
#2 of 305 • Bottom 0.3% in tier

Profitability above 0.75% ROA but margins eroding by at least 0.10pp YoY. Something changed - rising costs or falling yields need addressing.

Why this signature
Return on Assets: 0.77%
(Tier: 1.27%, National: 1.23%)
worse than tier avg

↑ Growing +94 banks QoQ

Liquidity Strain

risk
#58 of 643 • Bottom 8.9% 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: 93.25%
(Tier: 76.64%, National: 76.70%)
worse than tier avg
643 of 643 Community banks match · 1013 nationally

Flatlined Growth

risk
#63 of 512 • Bottom 12.1% 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: 0.77%
(Tier: 1.27%, National: 1.23%)
worse than tier avg
512 of 512 Community banks match · 687 nationally

risk
#28 of 108 • Bottom 25.0% in tier

Strong balance sheet under pressure - deposits leaving while lending capacity maxed. Need funding solutions before hitting regulatory limits.

Why this signature
Loan-to-Deposit Ratio: 93.25%
(Tier: 76.64%, National: 76.70%)
worse than tier avg
Tier 1 Capital Ratio: 11.86%

decline
#158 of 506 • Bottom 31.0% in tier
