During the past year it has lost $3 million, past 10 years $28 million, and since 2003, $38 million. The bank's average Return on Equity since 2003 is -3.7%, and for the past ten years it has an average Return on Equity of -4.6%. Profitability has not improved during the past year or for the quarter ending March 31, 2021. During the past decade the bank has paid no taxes; in fact, it shows $26,000 in net refunds during this time.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/baef357c501228f4a509573678ff45af\" tg-width=\"556\" tg-height=\"323\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Net Interest Margin trends are unfavorable.

The big drop is driven by a 166 basis point decline in the Yield of its assets.</p>\n<p>The bank's Efficiency Ratio is improving but remains among the worst among all US banks.

By July 9th, the stock jumped to over $40 a share before closing the day at $26.50, up 21% for the day and 141% for the week.\nYear-to-date Carver is up 308% after ending 2020 at $6.49 a share.\n\nWhat's the Story?\nThe story is there is no story.\nAt least not a compelling one for investors.\nAccording to www.thestreet.com, the catalyst for Carver's climb was asubreddit called r/carvstock that described Carver as \"blasting up\" and \"$CARV to the moon\" as two reasons to buy shares in this this small bank with 3.468 million shares.\nCarver Since 1994\nThe moon is 238,855 miles from earth which is about as far as Carver's stock price has fallen since 2003 when it peaked at $397.50 compared to $26.50 at market close on July 9.\nA Rare \"Triple F\" Bank\nRegular readers of my articles know that I focus on banks.\nAs a rule, I write about great banks and deliberately avoid writing about poor performers. Life is too short to own a bank that cannot produce a consistent and durable return on equity that exceeds its cost of capital.\nWhile I would prefer to not write about underperforming banks that persistently fail to achieve returns sufficient to cover their cost of capital, I need to make an exception with Carver given its crazy recent price action.\nCarver's soaring stock price may be telling a much bigger story than what meets the eye. We may be seeing evidence of what happens to a high-flying market when an industry's habitually worst performers see their valuations inflate five times over historic average.\nIn my database of 274 banks that have traded publicly since 2004, Carver is one of only three banks to earn a \"Triple F\" for Risk-Adjusted Return on Equity over 16 years, 10 years, and 5 years.

Before getting too excited about improving credit quality, there are reasons to think the charge-off ratio could go south soon.\n\nThe bank's Texas Ratio hit a five-year high at the end of Q1 2021 (29.6 per Bankregdata)\nThe percentage of Non-Performing Assets at the end of the recent quarter was the highest in three years (2.12% per Bankregdata).\nTotal delinquent loans were 7.13% on March 31; not good.\n\nI could go on and review other factors that raise concern (like percentage of brokered deposits, loan mix that tips heavy to non-owner real estate, commercial real estate concentration), but I will stop here.\nLofty Valuation Not Justified\nAs of July 9, CARV is selling at a Price to Tangible Book Value of 3.46, up from 1.34 at the end of June and .65 as of September 30, 2020.
