Genuine Parts Company

HALAL — DATA INCOMPLETEstock

Is GPC Halal?

Global distributor of automotive-replacement and industrial-replacement parts — a permissible parts-distribution business with a manageable financial-screen profile.

What You Should Know

Genuine Parts distributes automotive-replacement and industrial-replacement parts through its Automotive Parts and Industrial Parts businesses. Physical parts distribution is generally permissible, while customer end-use allocation and the proposed separation into automotive and industrial companies remain qualitative. Its March 31, 2026 Form 10-Q reports assets of $20,976.577 million, conservative debt/leases of $6,713.816 million, cash of $500.023 million, identifiable debt securities of $244 million, receivables of $2,533.850 million and quarterly revenue of $6,264.940 million. Debt/assets is 32.01%, liquidity/assets is 3.55% and receivables plus cash/assets is 14.46%; known asset ratios pass, but gross interest income and a universal prohibited-revenue numerator are unavailable.

⚠️ Concerns

  • Known debt/assets is 32.01%, below examined 33.333% limits but close enough to re-check after the proposed separation
  • Automotive and industrial customer end uses require qualitative review
  • Gross interest-income numerator unavailable; no fixed purification percentage asserted
  • Proposed separation and acquisition integration
  • Automotive-aftermarket and industrial-cycle exposure

Business-activity disclosure

Genuine Parts distributes automotive-replacement and industrial-replacement parts. Physical parts distribution is generally permissible, while customer end-use allocation and the proposed separation remain qualitative.

Limitation: The filing does not provide a universal prohibited-revenue numerator or gross interest-income numerator for the consolidated distribution businesses.

Purification

Gross interest income is not separately disclosed; no fixed scholar-approved purification percentage is asserted.

Inputs, assumptions and primary sources
  • Amounts are USD millions from Genuine Parts' March 31, 2026 Form 10-Q for the quarter ended that date.
  • Conservative debt combines $1,160.797 million short-term borrowings, $356.222 million current debt, $3,478.884 million long-term debt and $1,717.913 million operating-lease liabilities.
  • Cash uses $500.023 million of cash and restricted cash equivalents; identifiable debt securities use $244 million of available-for-sale and held-to-maturity securities.
  • Net accounts and notes receivable are $2,533.850 million and quarterly revenue is $6,264.940 million.
  • The filing reports net interest expense but does not separately disclose a gross interest-income numerator; no prohibited-revenue numerator is asserted for the mixed automotive and industrial distribution businesses.

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.
