#BankFailFriday (sm) - Post Mortem: Horizon Bank

Sunday, January 10, 2010: Horizon Bank closed this past Friday. It was the first bank and second financial institution to close in 2010.

The table below shows a few performance metrics for Horizon Bank and using simple terminology, puts them in perspective.

This bank has been losing money for over a year and it had basically no capital left to absorb its mounting bad loans.

The numbers speak for themselves.
