A properly licensed and reproducible historical market-cap series is not stored; method-specific filing-based results remain documented.

Business-activity disclosure

Align develops clear dental aligners, intraoral scanners and related digital orthodontic services. The core medical-device activity is generally permissible.

Limitation: The filing does not provide a universal prohibited-activity revenue numerator across products, software, training and customer use.

Purification

Align discloses $3.911 million of interest income, but does not provide a complete prohibited-activity numerator or scholar-approved purification percentage.

Inputs, assumptions and primary sources
  • Amounts are USD millions converted from Align's March 31, 2026 Form 10-Q values reported in thousands.
  • No current or long-term interest-bearing debt is reported on the March 31, 2026 balance sheet; the unused revolving line of credit is not debt outstanding and operating leases are excluded.
  • Cash and cash equivalents are $1,059.834 million; the filing says it had no short-term or long-term marketable securities for this screen.
  • Accounts receivable are $1,125.114 million, quarterly net revenue is $1,040.087 million and disclosed interest income is $3.911 million.
  • Dental aligners, intraoral scanners and related software are generally permissible medical products, while downstream patient and provider uses remain qualitative considerations.

This is a reproducible financial screen, not a fatwa. A failed total-assets screen can coexist with a pass under a market-cap methodology. ZakatInvest keeps the qualitative assessment separate so numerical thresholds do not erase material context.
