Bank of Brewton (FDIC cert 5605) is a community bank — $46M in total assets, $38M in deposits, serving the Brewton, Alabama area. Community banks make up the largest share of U.S. banks by count but a much smaller share by assets.

Capital position is strong: Tier 1 capital ratio of 28.28% sits comfortably above the 8% well-capitalized regulatory threshold and the 10% well-capitalized-plus floor for community banks. Strong capital is the first line of defense against unexpected loan losses. Asset quality is clean: non-performing loan ratio of 0.00% is below 0.5% — well within the healthy range for U.S. community and regional banks. Clean NPL ratios reflect either disciplined underwriting, a low-credit-risk loan mix, or both. Liquidity is very high: 54.9% 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 negative: ROA of -0.07% means the bank lost money during the reporting period. Sustained negative ROA erodes capital and triggers escalating regulatory attention. Health-score trend is improving: the bank's composite score is up materially over the most recent quarters in the dataset. Improving trends usually reflect either capital strengthening, asset-quality recovery, or sustained profitability gains. Bank of Brewton carries a composite BankHealth grade of A (92/100) 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.
