Inputs, assumptions and primary sources
- Cargill and Continental Grain completed the Sanderson Farms acquisition on July 22, 2022; SAFM stopped trading and the combined Wayne-Sanderson Farms became private.
- No private Wayne-Sanderson Farms figures are substituted for a standalone SAFM screen, so numerical ratios are intentionally not calculated.
- The route and existing qualitative poultry and halal-certification analysis are preserved.
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.
