Concerns (4)

Cost Spiral

risk
#16 of 126 • Bottom 11.9% 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: 41.43%
(Tier: 65.29%, National: 66.95%)
better than tier avg
126 of 126 Community banks match · 176 nationally
↑ Growing +82 banks QoQ

Liquidity Strain

risk
#109 of 643 • Bottom 16.8% 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: 91.18%
(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

Liquidity Overhang

risk
#230 of 739 • Bottom 31.0% in tier

Exceptional capital position (Tier 1 >= 16%, top quartile). Strong fundamentals - opportunity to deploy capital more productively.

Why this signature
Tier 1 Capital Ratio: 17.50%
(Tier: 15.83%, National: 17.06%)
better than tier avg
Loan-to-Deposit Ratio: 91.18%

Margin Compression

decline
#203 of 305 • Bottom 66.2% 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: 2.42%
(Tier: 1.27%, National: 1.23%)
better than tier avg
