Headquartered in Plains, Kansas, the bank maintains a Tier 1 capital ratio of 10.54% (Well-Capitalized) and a nonperforming loan ratio of 0.45%.

Bank of the Plains (FDIC cert 18118) is a community bank — $418M in total assets, $360M in deposits, serving the Plains, Kansas 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 10.54% 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 clean: non-performing loan ratio of 0.45% 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 comfortable: 26.1% of assets in liquid form — sufficient to cover meaningful deposit-outflow scenarios without forced asset sales.

Profitability is solid: ROA of 0.97% sits at or near the 1% benchmark for healthy U.S. banks. Net interest income, fee income, and operating efficiency are all in workable shape. Health-score trend is mildly positive across the recent-quarters window. The directional signal is favorable but not dramatic. Bank of the Plains carries a composite BankHealth grade of B (77/100) 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.
