SSB Bank (FDIC cert 30431) is a community bank — $308M in total assets, $260M in deposits, serving the Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania 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 10.07% 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 normal: non-performing loan ratio of 1.73% sits in the typical 0.5-2% range for healthy U.S. banks. Some NPL is unavoidable in any meaningful lending portfolio. Liquidity is thin: 9.8% liquid-asset ratio. Banks with thin liquidity buffers can face stress during deposit-outflow events or asset-quality shocks.

Profitability is solid: ROA of 0.98% 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 improving: the bank's composite score is up materially over the most recent quarters in the dataset. Improving trends usually reflect either capital strengthening, asset-quality recovery, or sustained profitability gains. SSB Bank carries a composite BankHealth grade of C (52/100) 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.
