The values screen, explained · five checks, plain English

This company clears both standards. There are two widely recognised ways to check whether a company is suitable for a Muslim investor. Here is how it did on each:

The common standard · AAOIFI
Used by most halal investing apps
✓ PASSES
Our stricter standard · asset-based
The one Titan applies
✓ PASSES

What these two standards are, and how they differ →

  • Business activity Its core business isn't built on prohibited lines — no gambling, alcohol, tobacco, weapons, or interest-based lending. Pass
  • Debt load Interest-bearing debt is just 0.7% of its assets, well under the one-third ceiling — it does not run on borrowed money. Pass
  • Interest-bearing cash Cash held in interest-bearing accounts and securities is 13.4% of assets, under the one-third limit. Pass
  • Receivables Money owed to the company is 0.0% of assets, under the 49% limit. Pass
  • Revenue purity Only 0.0% 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.

The business, in plain words · what the numbers mean

Cellebrite Turns Seized Phones Into Courtroom Evidence

Every time police in London or Tel Aviv pull a locked phone from a suspect, someone has to turn that data into usable evidence without breaking the law. Cellebrite builds the tools that do exactly that, moving bits from devices into review platforms that investigators actually trust. The business sits in a narrow lane where demand keeps rising as crimes move online.

Revenue is growing 19 percent, margins sit at 14 percent and return on equity reaches 16 percent, all while the shares trade at 23.4 times forward earnings against a fair-value estimate 20 percent higher. A moderate moat and a clean ethical screen support the case for steady compounding rather than explosive growth. Analyst targets cluster around 20 dollars, which lines up with the current pricing leaving limited room for error.

Israel-based operations bring currency and geopolitical risk that can swing results quickly, and competition from bigger software names could cap pricing power over time. The moderate moat means any slowdown in law-enforcement budgets would hit harder than the numbers currently suggest.

The risks · The things to watch: its business and earnings are exposed to Israel and to currency swings; it carries a real debt load, which raises the stakes if revenue slips.
