SBA loan data

SBA loans in Oregon: FY2020–FY2025 data

Oregon ranked #23 of 50 states and DC by number of SBA 7(a) and 504 loans approved in FY2020–FY2025. Below: volume by year, loan sizes, industries, and the lenders and CDCs that made the most loans, all from SBA's public loan-level data.

Data as of (SBA 7(a) & 504 FOIA release). Headline figures cover fiscal years 2020 through 2025 (October 1, 2019 to September 30, 2025). Methodology and sources.

Headline numbers, FY2020–FY2025

5,083 SBA 7(a) and 504 loans totaling $2.75 billion were approved in Oregon in FY2020–FY2025 (4,625 7(a) and 458 504), excluding loans later cancelled.

  • 5,083SBA loans approved (7(a) + 504)
  • $2.75 billionTotal approved amount
  • $147,600Median 7(a) loan (4,625 loans)
  • $658,000Median 504 amount (458 loans)

  • 7.8%Loans to franchise businesses

What this means for a borrower

  • Half of the 7(a) loans approved in Oregon were between $35,000 and $510,500, and the median was $147,600, 26% below the national median of $198,300. A request well above $510,500 would be larger than three in four 7(a) loans recorded here.
  • 50.2% of 7(a) loans here were under $150,000 (national: 40.6%).
  • 504 loans were 9.0% of the loans counted here (national: 11.7%), with a median 504 amount of $658,000.
  • 158 lenders (counted by name as recorded in the data) approved at least one 7(a) loan here. The 10 most active by count made 66.4% of 7(a) loans, so 7(a) lending here is concentrated among a small group of lenders.
  • 7(a) approvals went from 634 in FY2020 to 1,075 in FY2025, up 70%.
  • The sector with the most loans was Construction (16.0% of loans), followed by Retail Trade (13.6%).

These are counts of approved loans. The data does not show applications that were declined or withdrawn, so it says nothing about approval odds, and past volume is not a forecast for any individual request.
