Does not pass. Cash ratio

TestFigureLimitWhat it meansStatus
Business activity Permissible Core business clean Its core business isn't built on prohibited lines: no gambling, alcohol, tobacco, weapons, or interest-based lending. Pass
Debt load 16.21% Below 33% Interest-bearing debt is just 16.2% of its assets, well under the one-third ceiling: it does not run on borrowed money. Pass
Interest-bearing cash 77.05% Below 33% Interest-bearing cash and securities are 77.1% of assets, above the one-third limit. Fail
Receivables 0.00% Below 49% Money owed to the company is 0.0% of assets, under the 49% limit. Pass
Revenue purity 0.00% Below 5% Only 0.0% of revenue comes from non-compliant sources, under the 5% line. 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 Business, in Plain Words

Why it gives us pause

At 2.4x forward earnings, the price already runs ahead of the business. Our fair value sits at $0.48, below where it trades today. The weak moat is real, but quality alone does not make an expensive price cheap.
