Columbia Savings&Loan Assn (FDIC cert 28480) is a community bank — $24M in total assets, $22M in deposits, serving the Milwaukee, Wisconsin 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 12.71% 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 shows stress: non-performing loan ratio of 7.35% is well above the peer median and signals significant credit-quality challenges. Banks in this range typically face heightened regulatory monitoring. Liquidity is thin: 2.7% liquid-asset ratio. Banks with thin liquidity buffers can face stress during deposit-outflow events or asset-quality shocks.

Profitability is minimal: ROA of 0.04% indicates the bank is barely profitable on an assets basis. Multiple quarters of minimal profitability eventually challenge capital growth and regulatory standing. 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. Columbia Savings&Loan Assn carries a composite BankHealth grade of F (31/100) 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.
