the national average of 6.7%.
Utah’s total loan portfolio increased 15.4% from the previous March to top $13.2
billion as of the first quarter of 2015, with every major loan category growing year-
over-year. Healthy member demand for auto loans helped push used and new auto
loans higher, with new auto loans posting the highest growth of 31.4%. Used auto
loans grew 14.0% year-over-year. The 17.7% annual growth of Utah’s overall auto
loan portfolio was above the national average of 16.1%.
Net worth at Utah credit unions made impressive gains in the first quarter of 2015,
adding 73 basis points to total 10.8%, slightly above the national credit union
average.
Core deposits rose significantly from March 2014 to March 2015, up 13.1%, a rate
well above growth seen at regional and nationwide peers.
Over the past twelve months, the Utah unemployment rate decreased 0.4% to 3.4%
as of March 2015. The national unemployment rate is down by 1.1 percentage
points over the same period, to 5.5%.
The average member relationship (the outstanding combined loan and share
balances per member, excluding business loans) increased at Utah credit unions, up
4.1% annually to reach $14,657 as of March 2015.
Despite slower growth in the U.S. economy in the first quarter of 2015, the credit union
industry reported exceptional performance in the first three months of the year.
Notably, in the first quarter, Utah credit unions originated $2.8 billion in loans, up
25.5% from the first quarter of 2014. First mortgage originations followed the national
trend, surging 70.9% compared to March 2014. Consumer loan originations also posted
significant gains, increasing 15.4% in Utah, above the national average of 11.8%,
helped by its expanding auto portfolio, which grew 17.7% over the period. Stronger
loan income growth and non-interest income combined to push total revenue higher,
increasing 12.1% year-over-year.

1Q 2015 QUARTERLY PERFORMANCE SUMMARY 5
KEY RATIOS
ROA
Nationally, credit unions reported an
annualized ROA of 78 basis points, unchanged
from March 2014. Utah credit unions posted
an ROA well above the national average, of
1.36%, representing an increase of 8 basis
points from 2014.
NET INTEREST MARGIN
Margins have begun to slightly increase from
the lows of recent years. Through March, Utah
reported a net interest margin of 2.99%, up 15
basis points from the first quarter of 2014 and
17 basis points higher than the national
average of 2.82%. The difference is primarily
due to Utah’s higher interest income compared
to national averages; specifically, Utah has
higher margins than the national averages
within its automotive lending portfolio.
LOAN-TO-SHARE RATIO
With loan growth outpacing share growth by
over 7 percentage points in 2015, Utah credit
unions’ spread is higher than the national
spread of 6.2 percentage points. Rising loan
balances have contributed to a loan-to-share
ratio up 5.2 percentage points in Utah to
80.0% as of March 2015 from 74.8% in the
previous March. This is also 9.2 percentage
points higher than the 70.8% loan-to-share
ratio reported by Utah credit unions in March
2013.

1Q 2015 QUARTERLY PERFORMANCE SUMMARY 7
LENDING - OVERVIEW
ANNUAL LOAN ORIGINATIONS
In 2015, credit unions nationwide posted a
20.5% year-over-year increase in loans
originated, largely driven by 49.6% annual
growth in first mortgage loan originations,
supplementing a strong 11.8% increase in
consumer originations. In Utah, credit union
originations posted an overall increase of
25.5% as of March 2015. Every major loan
component exhibited growth in the first
quarter. Notably. first mortgage originations in
Utah increased 70.9%, while consumer loans
also exhibited strong growth, rising 15.4%.
LOAN COMPOSITION
Consistent with the significant increase in total
originations, outstanding loan balances at Utah
credit unions grew 15.4% from March 2014,
with every loan category posting year-over-year
increases. A revived mortgage market drove up
the entire industry’s first mortgage portfolio
8.8% over the past year. Consumer lending
also continues to post healthy growth; in
aggregate, Utah credit unions’ auto loan
balances increased 17.7%, with new auto
loans outstanding expanding over 30% from
March 2014.
ANNUAL LOAN GROWTH
Nationally, credit unions increased their
outstanding loan balances 10.6%, largely
buoyed by significant increases in automotive
lending. Lending at regional credit unions (AZ,
CO, ID, NV, WY) increased on an annual basis
as well, rising 14.2% as of March 2015, up
from 10.7% the year prior. More impressively,
Utah credit unions outpaced both their regional
and national peers, increasing outstanding
loan balances 15.4% from March 2014.

LENDING - REAL ESTATE
ORIGINATIONS AND SALES TO SECONDARY MKT
Utah credit unions outpaced the national trend
in first mortgage originations through the first
quarter of 2015, rising 70.9%. Collectively,
Utah credit unions sold $382 million, or 56.7%,
of total first mortgage originations. Sales to the
secondary market are up over 115.2% from
the first quarter of 2014, and well above the
38.6% sold by credit unions nationally.
FIRST MORTGAGE COMPOSITION - FIXED VS.
ARM VS. BALLOON/HYBRID
The majority of first mortgages (60.1%) held by
Utah credit unions as of March 2015 were
fixed rate products, compared to regional
credit unions whose first mortgage portfolios
contain significantly more fixed rate products.
HISTORICAL FIRST MORTGAGE GROWTH BY
TYPE
Fixed rate first mortgages outstanding have
increased at double-digit rates for the past
three years at Utah credit unions, rising 17.4%
for the twelve months ending March 2015,
compared to 17.3% growth in 2014. Despite a
strengthening economy and improving credit
environment, borrowers remain cautious of
adjustable and balloon/hybrid rate first

1Q 2015 QUARTERLY PERFORMANCE SUMMARY 9
LENDING - AUTO
HISTORICAL NEW/USED AUTO BALANCES
Used auto loans grew 14.0% at Utah credit
unions, compared to a national average of
13.1%. New auto loan growth in Utah exceeded
used auto growth, growing 31.4% compared to
national growth of 21.4%. Auto market share at
Utah credit unions also increased for both new
and used auto loans, with new auto loan
market share nearly three times the national
average of 14.6%, and used market share
over three times the national average of 21.3%
as of March 2015.

total loans, used auto loans have increased
from 32.8% of the portfolio in March 2011, to
34.8% as of March 2015.

growth at credit unions. Although not all
indirect loans reported by credit unions are
related to autos, 95% of credit unions reporting
indirect loan originations use this channel
solely for auto lending. The ratio of indirect
loans to outstanding auto loans in Utah stands
at 55.0% as of March 31, up 4.7% from the
previous March. Additionally, since 2011,

period, and when excluded, the peer group
average returns to historical levels at 24 basis
points. Net charge-off rates for the under $50
million and over $200 million state peer
groups remain below the national net charge-
off average of 0.47%.
Note: Auto loan delinquency did not exist on the call report prior to 2Q 2013.

SPECIAL SECTION - AN OVERVIEW OF BENCHMARKING
Overview
A credit union’s current and historical performance help
shape the direction its leadership takes the cooperative in
the future, making any miscalculations potentially harmful
down the line.
The most powerful way to ensure you’re getting an accu-
rate read of where your credit union stands in key areas is
by benchmarking performance against relevant peers. Alt-
hough it sounds simple enough, it takes a bit of know-how
to realize benchmarking’s full benefits.
What is Benchmarking?
Benchmarking is the interpretation and analysis of financial
information in order to make direct performance compari-
sons to other credit unions, banks, and customized groups
of peers. It enables a credit union to track internal goals,
identify opportunities, reinforce strengths, and reveal weak-
nesses.
Why Should I Benchmark?
Without accurate and detailed knowledge of your credit
union’s competition it’s impossible to properly gauge per-
formance in key areas. Benchmarking shows where you
need to make changes and the areas you can build upon.
Basically, it provides the numbers to back up (or disprove)
your assumptions.
At a more granular level, benchmarking also helps you:
Gain a better understanding of your market
Monitor progress towards specific goals
Identify potential performance pitfalls
Understand and spot patterns
Provide actionable and meaningful information to your team
Reduce the likelihood of decisions being made for intuitive or emotional reasons
Review operations at a high-level
If done regularly, benchmarking can have a direct impact
on the bottom line. Unfortunately, it used to be an involved
process reserved only for those with the most advanced
financial knowledge. For instance, benchmarking against a
local bank involved rectifying differences between the
NCUA and FDIC call reports. Thankfully, there are now tools
available that do this sort of work for you and make all the
necessary data easily accessible.
It’s now possible for credit union professionals across all
departments to use benchmarking for conducting data-
backed performance analysis. The key is knowing what
metrics to look for.
Key Benchmarking Metrics by Role
For credit union executives, being familiar with a range of
relevant performance ratios is the first step toward suc-
cessful benchmarking, but understanding the factors that
influence each ratio and the potential drawbacks of using
one over the other is equally critical.
Historically, benchmarking was limited to CEOs and CFOs,
but it can and should be performed by all C-suite execu-
tives. Similar to tracking your departmental budget, you
should be aware of how your teams’ efforts are impacting
the credit union. With that foundational information, you
can choose the best strategy moving forward.
The following list includes key benchmarks for several high-
level positions commonly seen at credit unions.

Common Benchmarking Pifalls
When done correctly, benchmarking is an extremely valua-
ble tool that provides important insight into various areas of
a credit union’s operating model. However, any errors com-
mitted during the benchmarking process can give you a
faulty picture of your credit union’s performance. The follow-
ing are three areas where errors are most likely to occur.
Peer Group Selection
When selecting a comparison group to benchmark against,
it’s important to think beyond just geographic proximity and
asset size. Including other factors in your benchmarking
efforts, such as charter type, field of membership, and type
of vendors used provides a more accurate comparison for
your institution. When it comes to benchmarking, you want
to be as accurate as possible to ensure you’re correctly
gauging performance.
It can also be beneficial to look at slightly different peer
groups from time to time. Benchmark against credit unions
with a slightly larger asset size or look at market leaders in
certain key areas. You may be able to pinpoint factors that
have allowed that institution to reach its current level of
proficiency.
Benchmarking Frequency
Given the dynamic nature of the credit union industry, con-
ducting benchmarking efforts only once a year can hide
performance lags for months at a time. Whether it’s interest
rates, membership demographics, or changing housing
market prices, the barometer for credit union success is
constantly shifting. With this in mind, it makes sense to
benchmark at least on a quarterly basis.
Identifying Potential Peers
Your benchmarking comparisons shouldn't be limited to
other credit unions as banks are likely also competing to be
the primary financial service provider of members in your
market. While differences between NCUA and FDIC report-
ing formats made it difficult to make credit union to bank
comparisons, there are now tools available that allow you to
make apples-to-apples comparisons. While you should not
make general market-to-market comparisons for metrics
such as loan rates and fees, consider using bank peers in
certain circumstances, such as when looking at market
share, setting market-based growth goals, and identifying
market trends.
Conclusion
Performance benchmarking is vital for ensuring your credit
union is on the right track toward success and should be a
routine part of operations.
Key to effective benchmarking is thinking beyond just asset
size or geographic proximity when comparing your credit
union to other financial institutions. The more criteria you
use when creating comparison groups, the more accurate
your performance analysis will be. You will want to think of
things like type of core processor used and SEG group when
benchmarking as well.
When you benchmark at least once a quarter, you can spot
trends as they arise and adjust accordingly.
And remember, even if you aren’t a CEO or CFO, perfor-
mance benchmarking is still extremely beneficial. It allows
you to find your department’s strengths and weaknesses,
so you can get the most out of your department.
