Superior National Bank (FDIC cert 5058) is a mid-sized bank with $1.0B in total assets and $837M in deposits, based in Hancock, Michigan. Mid-sized banks typically operate regionally with a mix of commercial and consumer lending.

Capital position is strong: Tier 1 capital ratio of 16.13% 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 clean: non-performing loan ratio of 0.42% 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: 28.6% of assets in liquid form — sufficient to cover meaningful deposit-outflow scenarios without forced asset sales.

Profitability is thin: ROA of 0.78% 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. Superior National Bank carries a composite BankHealth grade of A (91/100) 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.
