What is Elastic's debt ratio under Islamic finance standards?▾
Under AAOIFI Shari’ah Standard 21, interest-bearing debt must stay under 30% of a company's 36-month average market value. Elastic's ratio is about 6.2%.
How much dividend purification is required for Elastic (ESTC) stock?▾
Under AAOIFI Shari’ah Standard 21, shareholders should give away the part of their income that comes from prohibited sources: at most $1.75 per share for the latest financial year. This is an upper estimate: the exact figure is not reported, so it is the most the amount could be. The amount goes to charity, without counting it as one's own donation.
Does Elastic operate in prohibited business activities?▾
AAOIFI Shari’ah Standard 21 excludes companies whose main business is prohibited, such as alcohol, pork, gambling, conventional interest-based finance and adult entertainment. Elastic's main business is checked against these. For companies that file with the US SEC, revenue by division is also read from the filing, so a division in a prohibited business is counted. Where the check cannot be settled, the result is shown as Needs Review rather than guessed.
