First US Bancshares (NAS:FUSB) Net Charge Offs to Average Loans % Explanation
A Net Charge-off (NCO) is the dollar amount representing the difference between gross charge-offs and any subsequent recoveries of delinquent debt. The bad debt often needs to be written off and classified as gross charge-off. If any money is recovered from that debt, the recovered amount needs to be subtracted from gross charge-off, which is how we get the net charge-off.
Net Charge Offs to Average Loans % represents the amount of debt that a company believes it will never collect and is an indicator of a financial institution's loan portfolio performance. A higher ratio, especially when compared to the previous period or to other banks, would suggest that there’s more bad debt that is unlikely to be collected and the loan portfolio may be too risky.
