Bank of Dade (FDIC cert 17543) is a community bank — $152M in total assets, $144M in deposits, serving the Trenton, Georgia 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 15.96% 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 normal: non-performing loan ratio of 1.38% 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: 40.2% 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 strong: return on assets of 2.41% is well above the 1.0% benchmark most analysts use as the threshold for a healthy bank. Strong ROA usually reflects disciplined cost management, healthy net interest margins, or both. Health-score trend is mildly negative across recent quarters. Mild declines can reflect either specific quarterly events (large one-time provisions, deposit shifts) or the early stages of broader pressure. Bank of Dade 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.
