UNIB Uuniversity Bancorp Inc Michigan (QB)

University Bancorp's (OTCQB: UNIB) wholly owned subsidiary University Bank announced that it had received a perfect score of 300 out of 300 from IDC Financial Publishing, Inc. (IDC) based on the June 30, 2013 Call Report information submitted by all banks to the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC). Based on this quarter's rankings, University Bank is one of only two banks headquartered in Michigan with a perfect rating from IDC. IDC is generally considered to be the best and most prestigious organization that rates the financial quality and strength of banks in the U.S. University Bank is a community bank headquartered in Ann Arbor, with its key subsidiaries headquartered in Farmington Hills, Clinton Township and Houghton, Michigan, and was founded in 1890.

Stephen Lange Ranzini, University Bank's President & CEO, noted, "For over a year we've been rated by IDC as being nearly perfect, and it is exciting that we are now rated as perfect. It is a huge honor to the staff and customers of the bank and the 810 shareholders of the bank's holding company, University Bancorp, Inc., to receive this perfect score from IDC. Without the support from quality, loyal staff, customers and shareholders, we could not have achieved this key accomplishment."

IDC Financial Publishing, Inc. (IDC) uses its unique CAMEL rankings of financial ratios to determine the safety ratings of banks, bank holding companies, savings institutions, and credit unions. IDC publishes its methodology for ranking financial institutions for safety, allowing banks, savings institutions, credit unions, and any client to understand financial ratios and rank for a specific institution. IDC Financial Publishing, Inc. does not accept compensation prior to or as a requirement to rate an institution, and is therefore impartial when determining a rank.
