Annual Report 2015
2015 ANNUAL REPORT ONE VOICE + 222,000 STRONG TDECU.org | 800.839.1154 Federally insured by NCUA. 10445-2016 ONE VOICE + 222,000 STRONG MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT The independent spirit of our Members is what started the great organization we know as TDECU just over sixty years ago in 1955. What has kept us growing strong throughout those six decades is our ability to combine the best from each of us and to come together as one united voice to grow our communities, support the financial needs of the Member-owned cooperative, and to look to each other to find the best path forward. We are one voice. And together, we have grown to more than 222,000 strong – an increase of nearly 19,000 Members in 2015 – and we are on the road to reach $3 billion in assets in 2016. Our year in 2015 was another great example of what we at TDECU can do when we come together. The year ended with our computer systems upgrade and the start of a new era of more efficient and effective Member service that will come from upgraded systems. And while we did encounter a few forecasted bumps along the way to more secure and Member-focused systems, our employees and Members remained patient and supportive in reaching a successful outcome. The year also saw an incredible level of value returned to our Members in the form of competitive deposit and loan rates. As of December 2015, our Members saved over $400,000 on Buc-ee’s gasoline purchased using TDECU credit cards. And in comparison with national averages of interest-earning checking accounts, TDECU checking accounts provide Members with twice Front Cover Image Guide Top left: Ferris Wheel at State Fair of Texas, Dallas Top right: Shrimp Fleet, Freeport Bottom left: Victoria County Courthouse, Victoria Bottom right: TDECU Stadium, University of Houston the dividends. Auto loans with TDECU saved our Members $959 on average, and our credit card rates average 34% lower than the competition. These real world savings help the real world bottom line of each of our Members and show what it truly means to have strength in numbers. Our relationship with the University of Houston expanded in 2015 to include new on-campus activities, in-classroom projects and collaboration with administration and faculty. Taken together, these initiatives allowed TDECU to reach over 245,000 students, faculty, staff and alumni with our message. Our sponsorship of TDECU Stadium helped us efficiently grow awareness of TDECU among potential new Members by generating an audience reach of nearly 71 million via media coverage in television, newspaper, magazine, online and social media outlets. More than 6,000,000 were reached via game day broadcasts and brand exposure in and around the stadium. As we look to 2016, our focus continues to be on you, the Member. With our expansion into Dallas/Fort Worth, new member centers scheduled for Port Lavaca and Texas City, and enhancements to web and mobile banking, we look forward to growing our strength in numbers in the coming year. YOUR CREDIT UNION IN 2015 I would like to thank each and every Member, our TDECU Board of Directors, and our loyal, dedicated employees for your continued commitment to the vision and future of TDECU. TDECU truly is “Your Credit Union”.

TDECU assets grew to $2.7 billion and the credit union increased membership to over 222,000. We provided over $318 million in mortgage loans and more than $683 million in auto loans enabling our Members to have the homes and automobiles they wanted and needed to improve their lives. We converted to a new core computer system that will allow us to provide new, more efficient, and faster services to our Members. We expanded into Dallas/Fort Worth through a merger with Texas Catholic Community Credit Union, and we look forward to bringing new and improved financial services in 2016 to their more than 7,000 Members. And importantly, we achieved this growth while maintaining the high level of safety and soundness that are the cornerstone of our operations, ending the year with a solid capital ratio of 8.38%. Even as we grow though, we remain equally focused on enriching and strengthening the communities we serve. TDECU’s outreach efforts in 2015 allowed us to give back through financial literacy programs, scholarships for deserving students, and in support of local charities that serve as the backbone of our communities. In 2015, our employees volunteered over 1,200 hours of their time to support local charitable efforts. And as an organization, we contributed financial support to organizations like the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo™, the MS Society, and local food banks, to name a few. WE’RE HERE TO SERVE YOU Looking ahead to 2016, we have new and updated member centers scheduled for several locations and are planning to bring improvements to TDECU’s web and mobile banking services. As we continue to grow, we also continue to build a team with visionary, forward-looking thinkers who can help us on our journey toward improving financial lives. To this end, we added three new Advisory Board Members in 2015. These individuals integrate with and support the Board and Executive Team to bring additional expertise to the table, and to help us look at new and innovative ways to provide an even better Member experience through enhanced technologies and digital channels. Thank you to our Members, our Board and our dedicated team for making 2015 a year of impressive accomplishments for TDECU. It is an honor and a pleasure to serve as your Chairman.

Stock Yards, Fort Worth ONE VOICE + Asiel’s Restaurant, Lake Jackson 222,000 STRONG TREASURER’S REPORT 2015 was another strong year to add to TDECU’s proud history of financial strength, safety and security. Our forward-thinking approach to credit union products, services and the Member experience helped us end the year with an increase of over $300 million in assets to reach $2.7 billion in total. TDECU’s total equity grew to an impressive $233 million. It is with pride that I can report on behalf of our Board of Directors and TDECU’s leadership team a year of continued financial strength and stability for the organization. As we continue to focus on improving financial lives, our lending solutions give our Members a cost-effective way to reach their goals. In 2015, we worked with our Members to fund a record $2.5 billion in total loans, compared with just under $2.2 billion in 2014. Also in 2015, we introduced student loans to our wide offering of services which will enhance our commitment to provide lending solutions to Members at all stages of their lives. I am delighted to report we assisted 17 students in their quest for higher education by providing over $177,142 in new student loans. As you know, a benefit to your membership at TDECU is represented by the dividends earned on your deposits. Deposits increased by $183 million in 2015 and TDECU paid over $12 million in dividends on Member deposits. I am also pleased to report we grew TDECU’s membership by more than 9%, which took us from 203,128 Members in 2014 to 222,118 Members in 2015. On behalf of the Board of Directors and TDECU’s Executive Team, I want to assure you we will continue to direct and manage the credit union with your best interests in mind.

The Audit Committee is an extension of the Board of Directors and has oversight responsibilities for the financial reporting control process, the system of internal control, the audit process, monitoring compliance with laws and regulations, and monitoring the compliance of operating policies and procedures for TDECU and its subsidiaries. Throughout the year, internal audits, external audits, and regulatory examinations are performed to carry out these responsibilities in an efficient and prudent manner. The Texas Finance Code requires an annual audit of the financial records of the credit union. To accomplish this in 2015, the Audit Committee engaged the services of Doeren Mayhew, one of the top accounting firms serving credit unions in the United States, to audit the financial statements. Doeren Mayhew performed the financial audit as of December 31, 2015. Based on the audit, Doeren Mayhew rendered an unmodified opinion on the financial statements as of December 31, 2015. The audit report as of December 31, 2015, will be completed in the second quarter of 2016. In 2015, the following bylaw changes were made: 2. TDECU also updated its Nomination By Petition which now states, “Nominations for vacancies may also be made by petition signed by one (1%) percent of Members as of June 30th of the current year. The petition form must include the mailing address as reflected on TDECU’s records and the last four (4) digits of the signing Member’s account number in order to verify the person signing the petition is a Member of TDECU in good standing. The Board will make available a copy of the petition form to be used. Each nominee by petition must submit a brief statement of qualifications and biographical data in a form approved by the Board of Directors.” For 2015, the Board of Directors meeting fee was $750 per Board of Directors’ meeting and $375 per committee meeting.

In closing, the Audit Committee commends the entire TDECU staff and volunteers for serving the membership and making 2015 a successful year. 1.
