Five Screens, Shown in Full

This security has not been fully scored against the values screen yet.

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 1.16% Below 33% Interest-bearing debt is just 1.2% of its assets, well under the one-third ceiling: it does not run on borrowed money. Pass
Interest-bearing cash 0.00% Below 33% Cash held in interest-bearing accounts and securities is 0.0% of assets, under the one-third limit. Pass
Receivables 30.65% Below 49% Money owed to the company is 30.6% of assets, under the 49% limit. Pass
Revenue purity Excluded Below 5% of revenue comes from non-compliant sources, over the 5% line. Fail

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 Read

The Read, in Plain English

Richardson Electronics clears the business-activity screen and the figures we can measure look clean, but its income-purity figure is still pending, so the verdict is not final yet.

Read as at 2026-10-04. It updates when the underlying figures move, and past reads are kept below.
