| Debt load | 19.46% | Below 33% | Interest-bearing debt is just 19.5% of its assets, well under the one-third ceiling: it does not run on borrowed money. | Pass |

Five checks adapted from AAOIFI screening standards: business activity plus four balance-sheet ratios. All five must pass for ethical clearance. Every figure is arithmetic on public accounts, not judgement.
The Ethical ReadWhy It Falls Short, in Plain English
Bit Digital, does not clear the screen at the business-activity stage. It operates in conventional financial services, which the screen treats as interest-based, so the financial ratios are not the deciding factor here.
