FuelCell Energy, Inc.

DOUBTFUL — SCREEN DOES NOT PASSstock

Is FCEL Halal?

Clean-energy activity is generally permissible, but the latest filing fails liquidity and interest-income screens.

What You Should Know

FuelCell Energy's April 30, 2026 Form 10-Q reports $1,003.380M of assets, $134.180M of debt and finance obligations, $373.167M of unrestricted cash, $51.337M of receivables and $35.589M of quarterly revenue. Liquidity/assets is 37.19%, receivables plus cash/assets is 42.31% and disclosed interest income/revenue is 7.02%, producing failures under the examined asset-based methods. The clean-energy activity remains qualitatively permissible, but no universal prohibited-revenue numerator is disclosed.

⚠️ Concerns

  • Liquidity/assets is 37.19%, above the examined FTSE, MSCI and Malaysia limits
  • Interest income/revenue is 7.02%, above the examined FTSE limit
  • Project-finance and finance obligations are material
  • The filing does not provide a universal prohibited-revenue numerator

Business-activity disclosure

FuelCell Energy develops and operates stationary fuel-cell power systems, hydrogen production and carbon-capture technology. Clean-energy infrastructure is generally permissible, while project-finance instruments and customer use remain qualitative context.

Limitation: The filing does not allocate revenue into a universal prohibited-activity numerator, so no percentage is invented.

Purification

The filing discloses $2.5 million of interest income; ZakatInvest does not prescribe a fixed scholar-approved purification percentage.

Inputs, assumptions and primary sources
  • Amounts are USD millions from FuelCell Energy's April 30, 2026 Form 10-Q.
  • Cash excludes restricted cash; receivables combine accounts receivable and unbilled receivables.
  • Total debt and finance obligations are $134.180 million; quarterly revenue was $35.589 million and interest income was $2.5 million.
  • FuelCell Energy develops stationary fuel-cell power, hydrogen and carbon-capture systems; the filing does not provide a universal prohibited-revenue numerator.

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.
