Institutions running below well-capitalized capital thresholds

Institutions that tripped a regulatory capital-pressure flag this quarter. Banks raise the flag when Tier 1 leverage drops below 5% or total risk-based capital drops below 10%; credit unions raise it when the net worth ratio drops below 7%. Within flagged institutions, those running well above their size-cohort peer median on nonperforming loans surface first.

Q1 202650 institutions
In Q1 2026, 50 institutions showed capital levels below their peer medians. BYKOTA in NY led the group with a +25.4pp deviation, followed by LAMONT BANK OF ST JOHN in WA at +21.6pp and PEOPLE TRUST COMMUNITY in AR at +20.0pp.

Methodology

Banks (FDIC-insured) raise the capital-pressure flag when Tier 1 leverage ratio drops below 5% OR total risk-based capital ratio drops below 10%. Credit unions (NCUA-chartered) raise the flag when the net worth ratio drops below 7% (PCA "adequately capitalized" floor). Within flagged institutions, we sub-rank by deviation from the size-cohort peer median nonperforming-loan ratio. For banks: Tier 1 leverage ratio — FDIC BankFind Suite financials endpoint RBC1AAJ; total risk-based capital ratio — FDIC BankFind RBCRWAJ. Capital ratios remain BankFind-canonical (no CDR-direct override for these in Plan 5). Peer-deviation denominator (nonperforming-loan ratio) numerator — FFIEC Call Report Schedule RC-N line 9, 90+ days past due col B (RCFD1407 / RCON1407) plus nonaccrual col C (RCFD1403 / RCON1403). Denominator — Schedule RC-C line 12 total loans (RCFD2122 / RCON2122). For credit unions: net worth ratio — NCUA ACCT_998 (stored in percent units after normalization). Peer-deviation denominator (60+ delinquent ratio) — NCUA ACCT_041B divided by total loans ACCT_025B. Cross-type comparability: the capital-pressure flag uses different regulatory thresholds for banks (Tier 1 / total RBC) vs CUs (net worth ratio). The peer-deviation sub-rank also compares LCD-approximated nonperforming ratios across the two regimes — bank "non-current" (90+ past due or nonaccrual) and CU "60+ delinquent" are LCD approximations, not equivalents. Methodology updated 2026-03-31: bank peer-deviation denominators now source nonperforming volume directly from FFIEC Call Report Schedule RC-N rather than a BankFind ratio-derived approximation. The capital-ratio flag thresholds (5%, 10%, 7%) are unchanged. Read the methodology update note at /blog/npl-explorer-fdic-cdr-direct-sourcing.
