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
Ultralife does not clear the screen at the business-activity stage. It operates in an area the screen excludes: leveraged / inverse / derivative instrument (gharar), so the financial ratios are not the deciding factor here.
