Community West Bancshares is not in the Nasdaq 100, the S&P 500 or the Dow Jones 30, and is not on the US tech stocks list. ## Is Community West Bancshares profitable? Community West Bancshares earned $8.1 M of net profit in the Sep 2026 quarter, −25.8% on the same quarter a year earlier. Full-year FY25 profit was $38.2 M. Over 4 years profit has grown 7.7% a year on average. That is 14.0% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned $10.9 M. 1 of the last 12 reported quarters were loss-making. For the full year, FY25 profit was $38.2 M (+397.9% on the year before). Why profit moved: revenue changed +55.1% on a year earlier and the margin moved −15.4 percentage points. Sales did the work while the margin got thinner. On average over the last four quarters, profit changed +2.3% and revenue +27.8%. Profit is growing slower than sales: rising costs are taking part of the growth. ## How much revenue does Community West Bancshares make, and is it growing? Community West Bancshares reported $57.4 M of income in the Sep 2026 quarter, +55.1% on the same quarter a year earlier. That is the 9th quarter in a row with growth on the year before. Over 4 years it has grown 13.5% a year on average. The last full year, FY25, came in at $143 M. The last four reported quarters add to $177 M. FY25 revenue was $143 M, +35.0% on the year before. Recent pace: the last four quarters grew +27.8% on average, against 13.5% a year over the longer run, so this year is growing faster than its own long-run rate. Is growth speeding up? Revenue over the last 12 months grew +28.4%, against +36.5% a year over the last 8 quarters (rolling over); profit over the last 12 months grew −1.4%, against +123.9% a year (rolling over). ## How much does Community West Bancshares keep from what it earns? Community West Bancshares's net margin was 14.0% in the Sep 2026 quarter, 15.4 percentage points lower than the same quarter a year ago. Across 5 years it has been between 7.3% and 33.0%. The latest quarter is within that range. Why: the net margin move is clear, but the cost details behind it are not in our data, so we show the move without guessing the reason. ## How many of Community West Bancshares' loans have gone bad? Community West Bancshares does not report loan-quality figures this page can read, so this section says so rather than guess. No bad-loan figures are filed in a form this page can read, and none are guessed from the profit line. The income, margin and return sections carry what this business does report. Why: loan quality drives a lender, but its details (new bad loans, recoveries, money set aside) are not in our data for this company. The sections around this one carry what we can back up. ## How fast is Community West Bancshares' loan book growing? Community West Bancshares's revenue was $143 M in FY25, +35.0% on the year before, so the loan book is growing. The latest quarter was +55.1% on a year earlier. The net margin on that income is 14.0%, −15.4 percentage points on a year ago. Interest income stands in for the size of the loan book; changes in interest rates can move it a few points in any year. In short: a lender grows well when its loan book grows, its margin stays steady and its loans stay clean. Quarterly loan-quality figures are missing here, so revenue growth and margin are the two we watch. ## What is Community West Bancshares' P/BV ratio, and how does it compare with its own history? Community West Bancshares's P/BV is 1.2×, near the high end of its own history: higher than 96% of past readings. Its usual P/BV (the middle reading) is 1.1×, over 1 year of weekly prices. This compares the share price with the company’s own past. It does not say what the business is worth. Why the multiple is low: this lender earns about 7% a year on its equity. A lender that earns less on its net worth is valued lower for each dollar of it, and that gap usually closes only if returns improve. Why the multiple is where it is: over the past year book value grew while the price moved +24.8%. The price ran ahead of book value, which pushed the multiple up within its own range. In short: the multiple is high against its own past, so the book value trend underneath matters more than the multiple. ## Is the Community West Bancshares business getting better or worse? Community West Bancshares's business is giving mixed signals. There is no clear direction across the growth lines, with ROE falling at 5.5%; each line tells part of the story. This is based on 12 quarters of 4 measures. Why it matters: when the lines disagree, each line above matters more than any single label. ## How much does Community West Bancshares earn on its equity and assets? Community West Bancshares earned a return on equity of 9% in FY25. Its lowest yearly reading on file was 2% in FY24. On its assets, every $100 earned about $0.78, before the effect of borrowing. For a lender the balance sheet is the business, so the return on equity and on assets have to be read together. That return is below the level a bank needs to grow its net worth quickly, which helps explain why its multiple is where it is. Why ROE moved: profit grew 7.7% a year over 4 years while net worth grew more slowly. When earnings recover faster than net worth builds up, ROE climbs off its low. ## Does Community West Bancshares have too much debt? For a bank, borrowing is the raw material of the business, not a warning sign: it borrows money in order to lend it out. Its safety is read through its returns and its loans. Its safety is read from the bad-loan figures and the return on equity instead. For a manufacturer, debt is a claim on its profits. For a lender it is the stock it trades in, so the usual debt-to-equity test would mislead and is not used here. ## What is the Community West Bancshares shareholding pattern? 7.0% of Community West Bancshares's tradable shares are in short positions, which are bets that the price will fall, so some traders are betting against it. At normal trading volumes, closing those positions would take about 8.5 days. US companies do not publish a quarter-by-quarter list of owners, so this page uses short interest instead. It is a single reading at one point in time; we do not have its history. Why it is at this level: the figure does not say who holds the short positions or why, so we show the level without guessing the story. ## How far is Community West Bancshares from balance-sheet trouble? For Community West Bancshares, the Z-score is not used, because it was built for manufacturers, not lenders. For a lender, safety is read from its capital and bad-loan figures instead. ## How does Community West Bancshares rank in its industry?
