Price history & projections · where it has been, where the models see it going
The valuation journey · where the price sits against fair value and the Street
Green marks levels above today's price, red below; the shaded band is the gap between the price and our fair value.
Reading the gap · Our more conservative model reads it as fully-to-richly valued here, while the Street is more bullish — a quality-at-a-fair-price name rather than a deep-value one.

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:
Used by most halal investing apps ✗ DOES NOT PASS
The one Titan applies ✗ DOES NOT PASS
Why it fails. The problem is its business activity. Because both standards agree on this, it is a clear exclusion, not a borderline case.
What these two standards are, and how they differ →
- Business activity Prohibited sector: defense Fail
- Debt load Interest-bearing debt is just 0.0% 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 0.0% 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
Aerospace parts maker hits ethical wall
HEICO supplies the specialist components that keep both commercial jets and military aircraft in the air longer. Fleets keep ageing and travel volumes keep climbing, so demand for its repairs and parts stays solid.
We pass. The company fails our ethical screen on business activity grounds. Shares also sit at 49.5 times forward earnings, well above our fair value of 269 dollars, despite 25 percent revenue growth, 16 percent margins and 17 percent ROE.
Analyst targets at 400 dollars already price in perfection. Any slowdown in aerospace cycles or margin pressure would hit the multiple hard, and the ethical flag rules it out regardless.
Analysis, not advice.
| Forward P/E | 51.6x expensive even after accounting for its growth |
| Trailing P/E | 63.9x expensive — the price assumes strong growth ahead |
| Revenue growth | 25.3% strong top-line growth |
| Profit margin | 16.1% healthy profit margins |
| Return on equity | 17.2% a solid return on shareholder capital |
| Debt to equity | 0.48 minimal debt — a conservative balance sheet |
| Current ratio | 2.92 comfortably covers its short-term bills |
| Beta | 1.03 moves a little more than the market |
| Market cap | $49.9B |
The risks · The main risks here are ordinary market swings and the chance our fair-value read proves too optimistic.
