Crescent Bank (FDIC cert 33492) is a mid-sized bank with $1.3B in total assets and $1.1B in deposits, based in New Orleans, Louisiana. Mid-sized banks typically operate regionally with a mix of commercial and consumer lending.

Capital position is strong: Tier 1 capital ratio of 12.10% 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 elevated: non-performing loan ratio of 2.73% runs above 2%, suggesting the loan book carries more credit risk than peer banks. Elevated NPL can reflect specific portfolio concentrations or broader credit-cycle pressure. Liquidity is thin: 12.9% liquid-asset ratio. Banks with thin liquidity buffers can face stress during deposit-outflow events or asset-quality shocks.

Profitability is thin: ROA of 0.75% 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 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. Crescent Bank carries a composite BankHealth grade of C (54/100) 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.
