How often do these acquisition loans fail?

Of the 25 Full-Service Restaurants in Indiana acquisition loans approved from FY2018 to FY2021 (the seasoned cohort, every loan at least about five years old), 2 have been charged off by the SBA, a rate of 8.0% by loan count and 7.0% by dollars. 12 have already been paid in full.

For comparison, the charge-off rate across all SBA 7(a) acquisition loans in the same cohort is 3.5%, so Full-Service Restaurants in Indiana is 127% higher than the acquisition-loan average. Non-acquisition 7(a) loans (every other stated purpose) approved FY2018 to FY2021 charged off at 6.2%.

Small sample: 25 seasoned loans. A single additional charge-off would move this rate by about 4.0 percentage points. Read it as a direction, not a precise figure.

"Charged off" is the SBA's final loss action on a defaulted loan after collection efforts. It lags default by a year or more, which is why only older cohorts are measured. It is not the same as a delinquency rate, and loans still outstanding can still fail. See charge-off in the glossary.
