Noncurrent loans are 0.77% of the book, 6th of 12 against a median of 0.86%; 0.37% is 30 to 89 days past due, and the allowance covers them 1.7 times. Commercial real estate is 33.7% of loans, 7th of 12 against a median of 32.2%, and 219% of capital, below the 300% screen, with construction at 62% against the 100% screen.

Return on assets is 1.09%, 7th of 12 against a median of 1.10%, on an efficiency ratio of 65.3%, 7th of 12. Five years ago it was 1.03%. The question is whether the new lending seasons as cleanly as the book it joined, and what funded it.
