Risk tier
MODERATE
Composite risk score
0.80/100

An exploratory screening score that ranks relative failure risk across filers. It is not a calibrated probability, not a credit rating, and not a CAMELS rating.

Held-out test AUC 0.910 for the 1-year horizon (v20261026_025757). Trained on credit-driven community-bank failures, it carries little signal for interest-rate or deposit-flight risk. The score covers every FDIC-insured bank in the latest run, but the model was trained on community and regional banks and its accuracy above roughly $10 billion in assets is not established, so a low score is not evidence of safety.

The risk tier comes from the composite score; the 12-month figure rounds to zero for this bank, so it is not shown beside a tier above Low.

How we score this

First Federal Savings & Loan Association of Valdosta elects the community bank leverage ratio, so it reports no risk-based capital ratios. Under Prompt Corrective Action (12 CFR 324.403) and that framework it is well capitalized above 8% from July 1, 2026 (9% before), with a grace band one point below. Banks that do not elect it are graded on the CET1 ratio and the Tier 1 and total capital ratios.

Community Bank Leverage Ratio: Tier 1 capital divided by average total assets, for a qualifying community bank that elects the simpler framework. Pass > 9.0% (CBLR elected); 8.0% from July 1, 2026, fail ≤ 8.0%.

Tier 1 Leverage Ratio: The same ratio as its community bank leverage ratio. Pass ≥ 5.0% (well-capitalized), fail < 4.0% (below minimum).

Nonperforming Loans (NPL) Ratio: Nonaccrual loans plus loans 90 or more days past due, divided by total loans. Pass < 1.5%, fail > 3.0%.

Texas Ratio: Problem assets (nonaccrual loans, loans 90+ days past due and still accruing, and OREO, net of U.S. government-guaranteed portions) divided by tangible equity plus the allowance for credit losses. Pass < 50%, fail > 100% (historical failure threshold).

Efficiency Ratio: Noninterest expense divided by revenue (net interest income plus noninterest income). Pass ≤ 75% (lower is better), fail ≥ 90%.

Risk screens, beyond those bands: Uninsured deposit share watch at 50%, concern at 70%; Loan-to-deposit ratio flags at 100% or above; Commercial real estate to capital watch at 200%, concern at 300%; Held-to-maturity unrealized loss to equity watch at 10%, concern at 25%; NPL, Texas ratio and efficiency bands are ours.
