Indiana CUs Post Strong Profit Surge but Shed Members for Sixth Straight Quarter

Indiana's 113 credit unions delivered a standout profitability quarter in 2026-Q2, with ROA climbing to 0.98% — up 25 bps from 2026-Q1 and 20 bps from 2025-Q2, now 10 bps above the national 0.89%. NIM expanded to 3.84% and asset growth accelerated to 3.32%, outpacing the national 2.63%. Yet membership erosion persists: member growth hit -1.33% in 2026-Q2, the sixth consecutive negative quarter, running 63 bps below the national rate. Rising delinquency at 1.05% — 18 bps above national — signals that credit quality pressure could temper the profitability momentum heading into 2026-Q3.

Member Engagement

Member Growth (YoY %)

Member engagement remains the cohort's most pressing vulnerability. Member growth decelerated to -1.33% in 2026-Q2 from -1.26% in 2026-Q1 (QoQ), marking the sixth consecutive quarter of negative membership since 2025-Q1 — the last positive reading was +0.08% in 2024-Q4. Year-over-year, the pace of decline improved modestly, accelerating 8 bps from -1.41% in 2025-Q2, but Indiana CUs still trail the national member growth rate of -0.69% by 63 basis points. Without a reversal in membership trends, long-term growth capacity is at risk despite strong near-term financials.

Profitability

Return on Assets (%)

Net Interest Margin (%)

Profitability surged in 2026-Q2 across all three key metrics. ROA increased to 0.98% from 0.73% in 2026-Q1 (QoQ) and from 0.78% in 2025-Q2 (YoY), placing Indiana CUs 10 bps above the national benchmark of 0.89%. NIM increased to 3.84% from 3.73% QoQ and from 3.67% YoY, also 10 bps above the national 3.74%. The efficiency ratio improved to 78.00% from 80.00% in 2026-Q1, though it edged up 0.30 pp from 77.70% in 2025-Q2 and remains marginally tighter than the national 78.06%. The QoQ efficiency gain signals meaningful cost discipline.

Growth

Asset Growth (YoY %)

Member Growth (YoY %)

Asset growth accelerated to 3.32% in 2026-Q2, up from 2.91% in 2026-Q1 (QoQ) and from 2.64% in 2025-Q2 (YoY), extending a positive streak now running nine consecutive quarters since 2024-Q2 and outpacing the national rate of 2.63% by 70 bps. Loan growth, however, decelerated to 0.65% from 1.28% in 2026-Q1 (QoQ), though it marks the third consecutive positive quarter since 2025-Q4 and represents a dramatic improvement from -1.18% in 2025-Q2 (YoY). At 0.65%, loan growth still exceeds the national 0.22% by 43 bps, indicating solid underlying demand.

Risk & Credit Quality

Delinquency Rate (%)

Net Worth Ratio (%)

The risk profile deteriorated in 2026-Q2, driven by rising delinquency. The delinquency rate increased to 1.05% from 0.92% in 2026-Q1 (QoQ) and from 0.86% in 2025-Q2 (YoY), now sitting 18 bps above the national benchmark of 0.88%. This upward trajectory across both timeframes warrants close monitoring. Partially offsetting this concern, net worth strengthened to 13.87% from 13.43% in 2026-Q1 (QoQ) and from 13.34% in 2025-Q2 (YoY), now 6 bps above the national 13.81%. Capital buffers are solid, but the accelerating delinquency trend is the clearest risk signal in the portfolio.

Portfolio Mix

First Mortgage (%)

Indirect Auto (%)

Share Certificates (%)

Indiana CUs shifted portfolio composition meaningfully over the past year. First mortgage concentration rose to 21.41% in 2026-Q2, up 0.51 pp from 2026-Q1 (QoQ) and up 1.13 pp from 20.29% in 2025-Q2 (YoY), though it remains 81 bps below the national 22.22%. Indirect auto concentration increased to 11.10%, up 0.66 pp QoQ and 0.26 pp YoY, running well above the national 7.71%. Share certificate concentration grew to 19.35%, up 0.41 pp QoQ and 1.02 pp from 18.33% in 2025-Q2, approaching but still below the national 20.02%, reflecting continued member preference for fixed-rate savings.

Strategic Implications

  • Six consecutive quarters of negative member growth demand urgent investment in acquisition and retention strategies — digital onboarding, community partnerships, and targeted outreach to younger demographics should be prioritized.
  • With delinquency at 1.05% and rising 19 bps year-over-year, Indiana CUs should tighten underwriting standards and expand early-intervention loss mitigation programs before credit stress compounds.
  • Indirect auto concentration at 11.10% — nearly 340 bps above the national average — creates meaningful concentration risk; diversifying into personal loans or small business lending could improve portfolio resilience.
  • The 25 bps QoQ ROA surge and 10 bps NIM advantage over national benchmarks provide a window to reinvest earnings into member acquisition technology and branch optimization before profitability normalizes.
  • Rising certificate concentration (up 1.02 pp YoY) signals members are locking in rates, which may compress future NIM flexibility; liability-sensitive balance sheet management and rate scenario planning are increasingly critical.
