LYFT3

Lyft Bike & Scooter (parent-company proxy)

HALAL — METHODS DIFFERstock

Is LYFT3 Halal?

Micromobility — permissible transportation service.

What You Should Know

Micromobility (bikes and scooters) is a permissible transportation service. The March 31, 2026 Lyft filing gives a parent-company proxy of debt/assets 11.73%, liquidity/assets 19.36%, receivables plus cash/assets 14.92% and disclosed interest income/revenue 1.95%. Bike and Scooter-specific financials and activity revenue are not separately disclosed, so the quantitative result is methodology-dependent.

⚠️ Concerns

  • Parent-company ratios are not standalone Bike and Scooter figures
  • Lyft rideshare, insurance and ancillary activities are not allocated to the alias
  • Segment revenue is not separately quantified

A properly licensed and reproducible 24- or 36-month issuer market-cap history is not stored, so market-cap methods are not estimated from a current spot price.

Business-activity disclosure

Bike and Scooter micromobility is a generally permissible transportation service. The LYFT3 route is a Lyft parent-company alias, and Lyft does not isolate the micromobility segment sufficiently for a complete issuer-level Sharia screen.

Limitation: Lyft does not disclose a reproducible prohibited-revenue numerator or standalone Bike and Scooter balance sheet and income statement in the filing used here.

Purification

Parent-proxy interest income is 1.95% of quarterly revenue, but Bike and Scooter-specific income and a scholar-approved purification numerator are unavailable; no fixed amount is prescribed.

Inputs, assumptions and primary sources
  • This is a parent-company proxy for the preserved LYFT3 Bike and Scooter route; Lyft does not publish a standalone micromobility balance sheet for this screen.
  • Debt includes 986.618 of non-current long-term debt and 56.117 of current debt.
  • Cash is 1,034.869 and short-term investments are 686.066; restricted cash and restricted investments are excluded.
  • Enterprise and trade receivables, net are 291.277 and quarterly revenue is 1,650.489.
  • The filing reports 32.2 of interest income included in other income, net, or 1.95% of quarterly revenue. Bike and Scooter revenue and prohibited-activity revenue are not separately quantified.

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.
