SCREEN
The values screen, explained · five checks, plain English
This company is excluded by both standards. There are two widely recognised ways to check whether a company is suitable for a Muslim investor. It fails on both:
The common standard· AAOIFI Used by most halal investing apps✗ DOES NOT PASS
Our stricter standard· asset-based The one Titan applies✗ DOES NOT PASS
Why it fails. The problem is its cash ratio 50.3%. Because both standards agree on this, it is a clear exclusion, not a borderline case.
Business activityIts core business isn't built on prohibited lines — no gambling, alcohol, tobacco, weapons, or interest-based lending.Pass
Debt loadInterest-bearing debt is just 9.7% of its assets, well under the one-third ceiling — it does not run on borrowed money.Pass
Interest-bearing cashInterest-bearing cash and securities are 50.3% of assets, above the one-third limit.Fail
ReceivablesMoney owed to the company is 1.7% of assets, under the 49% limit.Pass
Revenue purityOnly 1.7% of revenue comes from non-compliant sources — under the 5% line.Pass
Every security is read against two recognised standards: our stricter asset-based screen (ratios measured against total assets) and the more widely used market-value standard (measured against market capitalisation). Where they agree we say so plainly; where they part ways — almost always on the debt check — we show both readings and mark it, because that disagreement is the finding, not a fault. We report the score; you and your scholar make the call.
PLAIN
The business, in plain words · what the numbers mean
Why it gives us pause
At 32.9x forward earnings, the price already runs ahead of the business. It trades 6% above our $1,588.28 fair value, so you would be buying at a premium, not a discount.
The risks · The things to watch: its business and earnings are exposed to France and to currency swings.
