Business-activity disclosure
Kulicke and Soffa designs semiconductor assembly and packaging equipment used in chip manufacturing. The equipment activity is generally permissible, while customer products, defense-adjacent uses and end uses are not reduced to a universal prohibited-revenue numerator.
Limitation: The filing does not classify every customer, tool or end use by a universal Sharia category; activity remains qualitative.
Purification
KLIC discloses $3.980 million of interest income, but ZakatInvest does not prescribe a scholar-approved purification percentage.
Inputs, assumptions and primary sources
- Amounts are USD millions from Kulicke and Soffa's April 4, 2026 Form 10-Q.
- No interest-bearing debt is reported; operating lease liabilities are excluded.
- Cash is $337.864 million, short-term investments are $150.000 million and investment in debt securities is $10.000 million.
- Accounts and other receivables are $255.610 million and second-quarter revenue is $242.621 million.
- The filing discloses $3.980 million of interest income, or 1.64% of quarterly revenue; no fixed purification percentage is prescribed.
- Semiconductor assembly and packaging equipment is generally permissible, but customer and end-use exposure remains qualitative.
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.
