The failed band is a BankRegReports band, not a supervisory threshold. 1 risk screen is flagged: non-performing loan ratio. Analysis based on the Q2 2026 call report.

Nonperforming loan ratio (nonaccrual plus 90+ days past due) climbed 2.39 percentage points in Q2 2026, from 10.72% to 13.11%. It was the largest change from Q1 2026 among the key lines here.

Risk tier
MODERATE
Composite risk score
0.90/100

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. See the methodology. This is not investment advice or a credit rating.
