Bonaparte, Iowa · FDIC Cert #5820

This is the FDIC profile for State Central Bank, an FDIC-insured bank (Certificate #5820) with $50M in total assets and $44M in total deposits per its most recent FDIC Call Report filing (Q2 2024). Headquartered in Bonaparte, Iowa, the bank maintains a Tier 1 capital ratio of 10.87% (Well-Capitalized) and a nonperforming loan ratio of 4.69%.

State Central Bank (FDIC cert 5820) is a community bank — $50M in total assets, $44M in deposits, serving the Bonaparte, Iowa 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 10.87% 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 elevated: non-performing loan ratio of 4.69% 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 very high: 60.2% of assets in liquid form, well above peer norms. Very high liquidity sometimes reflects a bank still building out its loan portfolio or one operating under specific regulatory liquidity requirements.

Profitability is thin: ROA of 0.60% 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 positive across the recent-quarters window. The directional signal is favorable but not dramatic. State Central Bank carries a composite BankHealth grade of C (55/100) 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.
