Delta Bank (FDIC cert 26564) is a community bank — $602M in total assets, $494M in deposits, serving the Vidalia, Louisiana area. Community banks make up the largest share of U.S. banks by count but a much smaller share by assets.

Tier 1 capital ratio is not disclosed in the most recent Call Report — unusual but possible for new institutions or those filing under specific regulatory exemptions. Asset quality is clean: non-performing loan ratio of 0.24% 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: 25.1% of assets in liquid form — sufficient to cover meaningful deposit-outflow scenarios without forced asset sales.

Profitability is strong: return on assets of 1.52% 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. Delta Bank carries a composite BankHealth grade of C (57/100) 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.
