Alton Bank (FDIC cert 8276) is a community bank — $119M in total assets, $105M in deposits, serving the Alton, Missouri area. Community banks make up the largest share of U.S. banks by count but a much smaller share by assets.
Capital position is adequate: Tier 1 capital ratio of 11.22% meets the 8% well-capitalized threshold but does not provide substantial buffer above it. Adequate capital is regulatory-acceptable but leaves less room for absorbing unexpected losses. Asset quality is normal: non-performing loan ratio of 1.36% sits in the typical 0.5-2% range for healthy U.S. banks. Some NPL is unavoidable in any meaningful lending portfolio. Liquidity is very high: 43.8% of assets in liquid form, well above peer norms. Very high liquidity sometimes reflects a bank still building out its loan portfolio or one operating under specific regulatory liquidity requirements.
Profitability is thin: ROA of 0.26% runs below the 1% benchmark. Thin margins can reflect cyclical net-interest-margin pressure, elevated provisions for loan losses, or operating-cost inefficiency. Health-score trend is declining materially over the most recent quarters. Declining trends warrant attention — banks in this pattern often face follow-on regulatory engagement and elevated supervisory scrutiny. Alton Bank carries a composite BankHealth grade of B (75/100) as of the 2024-06 Call Report filing. The grade combines capital ratios (Tier 1), asset quality (non-performing loans), liquidity, and profitability into a single signal.
