Chart Industries, Inc.

HALAL — SCREEN DOES NOT PASSstock

Is GTLS Halal?

Cryogenic, heat-transfer and process-technology equipment — generally permissible activity, but the current debt/assets screen fails.

What You Should Know

Chart Industries' March 31, 2026 Form 10-Q reports assets of $9,691.6 million, debt of $3,786.8 million, cash of $267.9 million, receivables of $763.4 million and quarterly revenue of $884.8 million. Debt/assets is 39.07%, liquidity/assets is 2.76%, receivables plus cash/assets is 10.64% and disclosed interest income is 0.25% of revenue. Debt fails the examined FTSE Yasaar, MSCI and Malaysia asset-based limits; no universal prohibited-revenue numerator is disclosed.

⚠️ Concerns

  • Debt/assets is 39.07%, above examined 33.333% limits
  • Howden-acquisition leverage and debt service remain material
  • Hydrogen, LNG, carbon-capture, water-treatment and industrial end markets require qualitative review
  • The filing reports $2.2 million of interest income within net interest expense; no fixed purification percentage asserted
  • No universal prohibited-revenue numerator is disclosed

Business-activity disclosure

Chart Industries manufactures cryogenic, heat-transfer and process-technology equipment across cryogenic storage, specialty products and repair/service activities. The core activity is generally permissible, but the filing does not provide a universal prohibited-revenue numerator for all project and customer end uses.

Limitation: No universal prohibited-activity revenue numerator or scholar-specific purification percentage is disclosed; the screen does not infer one from project customers.

Purification

Chart reports $2.2 million of interest income within net interest expense, but no scholar-specific purification percentage is asserted and the activity numerator remains incomplete.

Inputs, assumptions and primary sources
  • Amounts are USD millions from Chart Industries' March 31, 2026 Form 10-Q.
  • Debt is the $3,786.8 million combined current and noncurrent long-term debt; operating leases are excluded.
  • Cash and cash equivalents are $267.9 million; restricted cash is not added and no separate interest-bearing security balance is identified.
  • Accounts receivable, net is $763.4 million and first-quarter revenue is $884.8 million.
  • The interest-expense table reports $2.2 million of interest income within $73.0 million of net interest expense; this is used as the disclosed income input.
  • Cryogenic, heat-transfer, hydrogen, water-treatment and carbon-capture equipment is generally permissible, while energy and industrial end uses remain qualitative context.

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.
