The values screen, explained · five checks, plain English
It depends which standard you follow. There are two widely recognised ways to check whether a company is suitable for a Muslim investor, and on this company they disagree. Here is how it did on each:
Used by most halal investing apps ✗ DOES NOT PASS
The one Titan applies ✓ PASSES
Why the two disagree. They fall out over one thing only: the company’s debt. Our stricter standard measures that debt against what the company owns, and it works out too high to pass. The common standard measures the same debt against what the company is worth on the stock market, where it works out low enough to pass. Every other check, the two agree on. So in practice, most halal apps would treat this as fine to hold, while our stricter view would not — and which line you follow is between you and your scholar.
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 28.4% of its assets, well under the one-third ceiling — it does not run on borrowed money. Against market value it is 36.9%, under the 30% line the market-value standard uses — so that standard clears it. Divergent
- Interest-bearing cash Cash held in interest-bearing accounts and securities is 1.0% of assets, under the one-third limit. Pass
- Receivables Money owed to the company is 22.2% of assets, under the 49% limit. Pass
- Revenue purity Only 0.2% 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
Hospitals rely on kit that rarely fails
Walk into any busy imaging suite and the scanners and monitors keeping patients safe often trace back to established medical device makers. GE HealthCare stands out here because it combines 7% revenue growth, a 19% return on equity and a forward earnings multiple of just 11.8 times, all while clearing the ethical screen and offering a 55% margin of safety to our fair value.
The narrow moat and 9% profit margin reflect steady but not explosive demand for diagnostic and monitoring gear worldwide. Eighteen analysts see further upside with a median target of 80 dollars, yet the real attraction is the cash generation and pricing power that still sits below what the market normally awards similar healthcare compounders.
Risk sits mainly in hospital capital budgets that can tighten quickly during funding squeezes, plus competition that keeps the moat from widening. Currency moves and supply chain hiccups add further volatility. Analysis, not advice.
| Forward P/E | 11.4x priced for continued growth |
| Trailing P/E | 14.7x reasonably valued |
| Revenue growth | 7.4% slow but positive growth |
| Profit margin | 9.1% thin but positive margins |
| Return on equity | 19.5% a solid return on shareholder capital |
| Debt to equity | 0.97 moderate, manageable leverage |
| Current ratio | 1.22 adequate liquidity, worth monitoring |
| Beta | 0.84 steadier than the market |
