Zurn Elkay Water Solutions Corporation

HALAL — METHODS DIFFERstock

Is ZWS Halal?

Water-management products are generally permissible and all known asset-based ratios pass; product end-use classification remains methodology-dependent.

What You Should Know

Zurn Elkay Water Solutions Corporation designs and markets water-safety, flow-control, drainage, plumbing and drinking-water products. The core activity supports safe water access and is generally permissible. Its March 31, 2026 Form 10-Q reports $2,684.4 million of assets, $499.0 million of interest-bearing debt, $273.5 million of cash and $242.7 million of receivables. Debt/assets is 18.59%, liquidity/assets is 10.19% and receivables-plus-cash/assets is 19.23%, below the examined asset-based limits. The filing reports $2.1 million of interest income, or 0.48% of quarterly net sales. The public filing does not quantify a universal prohibited-activity numerator for every customer or end use, so the result is methodology-dependent rather than an official certification.

⚠️ Concerns

  • Debt/assets is 18.59% ($499.0 million / $2,684.4 million), below the examined asset-based limits
  • Interest income/revenue is 0.48%; purification treatment remains scholar- and methodology-dependent
  • Product and customer end uses are not fully allocated into a prohibited-activity numerator
  • PMC is presented as discontinued operations after separation
  • Re-screen after a newer filing, acquisition or material product-mix change

Business-activity disclosure

Zurn Elkay designs, manufactures and markets water-safety, flow-control, drainage, plumbing and drinking-water products. These products are generally permissible and support safe water access, while the filing does not provide a universal prohibited-activity numerator.

Limitation: The filing reports product and geographic categories but does not quantify a scholar-approved prohibited-activity revenue numerator for every end use or customer.

Purification

Zurn Elkay discloses $2.1 million of interest income, or 0.48% of quarterly net sales, but no scholar-approved fixed purification percentage is inferred.

Inputs, assumptions and primary sources
  • Amounts are USD millions from Zurn Elkay's March 31, 2026 Form 10-Q.
  • Debt combines $1.4 million of current maturities and $497.6 million of long-term debt; operating leases are excluded.
  • Cash and cash equivalents are $273.5 million; no separate interest-bearing securities balance is identified.
  • Receivables, net are $242.7 million and quarterly net sales are $433.0 million.
  • The filing reports $2.1 million of interest income for the quarter.

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.
