The Workings

Five Screens, Shown in Full

Full pass across all five screens. This security clears the Titan Ethical Standard: its business and its balance sheet both stay inside the lines.

TestFigureLimitWhat it meansStatus
Business activity Permissible Core business clean Its core business isn't built on prohibited lines: no gambling, alcohol, tobacco, weapons, or interest-based lending. Pass
Debt load 24.64% Below 33% Interest-bearing debt is just 24.6% of its assets, well under the one-third ceiling: it does not run on borrowed money. Pass
Interest-bearing cash 0.00% Below 33% Cash held in interest-bearing accounts and securities is 0.0% of assets, under the one-third limit. Pass
Receivables 22.07% Below 49% Money owed to the company is 22.1% of assets, under the 49% limit. Pass
Revenue purity 1.84% Below 5% Only 1.8% of revenue comes from non-compliant sources, under the 5% line. Pass

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 Business, in Plain Words

Roofing distributor with explosive but loss making growth

Picture a small distributor suddenly shipping roofing supplies across the US and Canada at a furious pace. Revenue has jumped more than a hundredfold yet the firm still posts a six percent loss and negative return on equity. Analysts see further upside and our own numbers show a decent margin of safety, yet the opportunity rating stays at none.

The narrow moat and forward multiple of nineteen times leave little room for error if growth slows. Ethical checks clear but the business has yet to turn a profit, which keeps the case from stacking up cleanly.
