DOUBTFUL — DATA INCOMPLETEstock

Is CW Halal?

Diversified industrial manufacturer with substantial commercial-aerospace, industrial, and nuclear-power exposure but also material defense-and-naval-defense revenue — mixed end-market profile raises Sharia concerns on the defense-revenue component.

What You Should Know

Curtiss-Wright makes engineered components for aerospace, defense, nuclear and industrial markets. General engineering is generally permissible, while defense/naval and government end uses are the preserved qualitative concern. Its March 31, 2026 Form 10-Q reports assets of $5,270.081 million, conservative debt/leases of $1,148.383 million, cash of $343.447 million, receivables of $996.331 million and quarterly revenue of $913.687 million. Debt/assets is 21.79%, liquidity/assets is 6.52% and receivables plus cash/assets is 25.42%, so known financial ratios pass; the filing reports interest expense but no gross interest-income numerator, leaving the complete screen incomplete.

⚠️ Concerns

  • Defense and naval end-use revenue requires qualified review
  • Known debt/assets is 21.79%, below examined limits
  • Interest-income numerator unavailable; no fixed purification percentage asserted
  • Nuclear and government contracts
  • No universal prohibited-revenue numerator

Business-activity disclosure

Curtiss-Wright makes engineered components and systems for aerospace, defense, nuclear and industrial markets. General engineering and manufacturing are generally permissible, while defense and end-use allocation require qualitative review.

Limitation: The filing does not provide a universal prohibited-revenue numerator across contracts, customers and end uses.

Purification

The current filing reports interest expense but does not separately disclose an interest-income numerator; no fixed purification percentage is asserted.

Inputs, assumptions and primary sources
  • Amounts are USD millions from Curtiss-Wright's March 31, 2026 Form 10-Q.
  • Conservative debt combines $957.635 million of long-term debt and $190.748 million of noncurrent operating-lease liabilities.
  • Cash is $343.447 million and receivables are $996.331 million.
  • Quarterly revenue is $913.687 million; the filing reports interest expense but does not separately disclose an interest-income numerator.
  • Aerospace, defense, commercial nuclear and industrial control products are generally permissible at the activity level, while defense and customer end uses require qualitative review.

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.
