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 ReadWhy It Falls Short, in Plain English
Arxis does not clear the screen at the business-activity stage. It operates in aerospace and defense, so the financial ratios are not the deciding factor here.
Read as at 2026-11-05. It updates when the underlying figures move, and past reads are kept below.

The Fair Value Range
Our analysis reads Fair vs our fair value, as of 5 Nov 2026: it trades above our $45.93 fair value estimate, narrow competitive moat, 25.00% revenue growth.
How a fair value is estimated: discounted cash flow (DCF).
Fair value range in USD, drawn from the 2026-11-05 screen. The gold marker is the market price at the same screen. The price runs 5.6% above the base estimate.
Third-party analyst targets: 10 covering, consensus Strong Buy. The average target sits +34% from the screen price.
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.
Price History & ProjectionsWhere our models see it going: fair-value estimate $45.93, with a range of $45.93 to $52.82, dated to the 2026-11-05 screen.

The Business, in Plain WordsDefence parts maker fails ethical screen outright
Picture a supplier whose components sit inside jets and guidance systems that must work every time. Arxis makes those electronic and mechanical parts, yet the business lands straight on the excluded list for aerospace and defence work. That single ethical failure ends any interest before the numbers even matter.
Valuation adds a second clear reason to pass. Shares trade at 45 times forward earnings against a narrow moat and just 6 percent profit margins, while our fair value sits 14 percent below the current price. Revenue growth of 21 percent looks respectable, but it does not offset the premium or the ethical block.
Analyst targets sit higher still, yet the ethical screen exists precisely to keep portfolios away from this category regardless of momentum or consensus. The combination leaves no opportunity rating here.
