SCREEN
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
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 cashCash held in interest-bearing accounts and securities is 1.0% of assets, under the one-third limit.Pass
ReceivablesMoney owed to the company is 14.1% of assets, under the 49% limit.Pass
Revenue purityOnly 0.7% 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
Uranium supplier priced for perfect conditions
Picture a miner selling fuel to power stations across three continents. Demand for uranium edges higher as grids chase low-carbon electricity, yet Cameco still only grows revenue at 7 percent a year while posting an 18 percent profit margin and 10 percent return on equity.
We pass. The shares sit at 85.62 dollars against our fair value of 75.20 dollars, a forward multiple of 45 times earnings, and only a narrow moat to protect returns. In a cyclical industry that valuation already prices in the best possible outcome.
The real danger is the classic trap. Uranium prices swing hard with reactor build cycles and policy shifts. When the cycle turns, peak earnings collapse faster than multiples can expand, leaving holders with both lower profits and a re-rated stock. Ethical screen cleared, but the numbers still do not add up.
