Aspire Bank (FDIC cert 3934) is a community bank — $67M in total assets, $60M in deposits, serving the Fargo, North Dakota 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 8.88% 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 0.90% sits in the typical 0.5-2% range for healthy U.S. banks. Some NPL is unavoidable in any meaningful lending portfolio. Liquidity is thin: 1.8% liquid-asset ratio. Banks with thin liquidity buffers can face stress during deposit-outflow events or asset-quality shocks.
Profitability is thin: ROA of 0.56% 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. Aspire Bank carries a composite BankHealth grade of D (47/100) 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.
