Wyoming's 18 credit unions delivered robust growth in Q4 2025, with loan growth accelerating to 4.48% from 1.82% quarter-over-quarter and asset growth reaching 6.07%. However, member growth decelerated dramatically to 0.34% from 8.58% year-over-year, while ROA declined to 1.13% from 1.20% quarterly but remained 40 basis points above national averages. Credit quality improved with delinquencies falling to 0.82%, though still elevated from 0.74% a year ago. Strong balance sheet expansion positions institutions well despite membership challenges.
