Ratios tagged annualized use the Q2 income alone. The UBPR and FDIC annualize the year to date instead. FDIC BankFind divides by the average of quarter-end total assets, the UBPR by RC-K average assets. The YTD margin is the UBPR's tax-equivalent figure over its own average earning assets; FDIC BankFind's margin is not tax-equivalent. How we compute these figures

Watch flags

Automated conditions triggered on this bank's latest filing. Advisory only; see the source metric pages for full context. Each flag is tagged Regulatory when it cites an official supervisory threshold, or BRR analysis when it's our own band, informed by our data and models.

Uninsured deposits at 54.4% of total, meaningful run-risk exposure BRR analysis What does this mean? →

More than half of deposits are uninsured (above the $250K FDIC threshold). Worth understanding the depositor concentration in stressed scenarios. BankRegReports early-warning band.

CRE concentration at 271% of capital, approaching guidance BRR analysis What does this mean? →

Commercial real estate loans are between 200% and 300% of total capital, approaching the 2006 interagency guidance threshold of 300% that triggers heightened supervisory attention. BankRegReports early-warning band below the 300% guidance.

Unrealized HTM losses at 14% of equity BRR analysis What does this mean? →

Held-to-maturity securities carry unrealized losses worth 10–25% of book equity. Carried at amortized cost, they do not reduce reported capital, but they shrink the bank's true mark-to-market cushion if the securities ever have to be sold. BankRegReports analysis, HTM marks aren't a reported regulatory metric.

Quarterly trend: last 8 quarters

Across the 8 quarters to Q2 2026, its return on assets ran from 0.13% (Q4 2024) to 1.21% (Q2 2026) and its net interest margin ran from 2.02% (Q3 2024) to 2.78% (Q2 2026).
