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 2.8% 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 8.7% 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

Powering AI Needs at a Bargain Price

Picture an AI boom that demands entire power plants built from scratch, not just another data centre lease. Fermi is trying to own those private campuses outright, generating and delivering grid-independent electricity straight to the highest bidders in high-performance computing.

At $6.05 against a $10.39 fair value the shares sit with a 72 percent margin of safety. Forward earnings sit at 16.6 times, eight analysts carry a buy rating with an $18 median target, profit margins are still zero and the moat is weak, yet the ethical screen clears without issue.

The catch is obvious: no current profits and thin competitive defences leave the business exposed if AI spending slows or larger utilities muscle in. Execution risk remains high until cash flow appears. Analysis, not advice.
