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

Unrealized HTM losses at 17% 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.
