Not a CAMELS rating. The FinObservatory Composite is a transparent proxy computed only from public FDIC call-report data. It is not the confidential examiner-assigned CAMELS rating, and it is not investment or deposit advice: a high score is not a solvency guarantee, a low score is not a failure prediction. In the 2023 failures, public ratios rated Silicon Valley Bank above average the quarter before it failed, because the cause (unrealized long-duration securities losses against a concentrated deposit base) is invisible in these fields. Full methodology and caveats.

Selected Call Report line items
Reported 2026 Q1 values are compared with 2025 Q1, the same calendar quarter one year earlier. Dollar amounts are thousands of dollars at source. Capital ratios are source percentages, not proportions. Income lines are cumulative year to date, so they are not compared quarter over quarter.

Peer context (UBPR-style)
2026Q1. Peers are the 144 banks reporting this quarter with $10B - $250B in total assets, the same asset tier the Composite ranks within (the five tiers: Under $100M, $100M - $1B, $1B - $10B, $10B - $250B, $250B and up). Percentile ranks the bank's raw ratio among the n peers reporting it, ascending, with average rank for ties (the Composite builder's tie convention), so a high noncurrent-loans percentile means more noncurrent loans than peers. Unlike the Composite, nothing is inverted here.
| Ratio | Bank | Peer median | Percentile | n |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Tier-1 leverage ratio | 10.33% | 9.98% | 56 | 144 |
| Noncurrent loans / gross loans | 0.71% | 0.70% | 51 | 144 |
| Loan-loss reserve / gross loans | 6.45% | 1.13% | 97 | 144 |
| Return on assets | 4.31% | 1.19% | 100 | 144 |
| Net interest margin | 5.69% | 3.50% | 94 | 144 |
| Interest expense / earning assets | 3.86% | 1.82% | 99 | 144 |
| Brokered deposits / total deposits | 41.68% | 3.93% | 97 | 138 |
