The Short Answer
COHR is halal on the current asset-based screen, with an incomplete income disclosure. The March 31, 2026 filing shows debt/assets of 18.48%, liquidity/assets of 13.99% and receivables plus cash/assets of 16.09%. Gross interest income is included in interest and other, net but is not separately quantified.

Business-activity disclosure
Coherent supplies photonics, lasers, optical communications, engineered materials and silicon-carbide substrates for datacenter, communications, industrial and scientific applications. These general-purpose technologies are generally permissible, while defense end markets and export controls remain qualitative context.
Limitation: The filing does not allocate revenue into a universal prohibited-activity numerator and does not separately disclose gross interest income.
Purification
Gross interest income is included in interest and other, net but is not separately quantified; ZakatInvest does not assert a purification percentage.
Inputs, assumptions and primary sources
- Amounts are USD millions from Coherent's March 31, 2026 Form 10-Q.
- Debt is current portion of long-term debt of $9.011 million plus long-term debt of $3,184.770 million, net of issuance costs and discount.
- Cash is $1,592.730 million and short-term investments are $825.000 million; restricted cash is not included in the liquidity numerator.
- Accounts receivable is $1,187.860 million and quarterly revenue is $1,805.641 million. Gross interest income is included in interest and other, net but is 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.
Business activity
Coherent's photonics, lasers, optical communications, engineered substrates and silicon-carbide products serve datacenter, communications, industrial and scientific applications. These general-purpose technologies are generally permissible.
Qualitative context
Term debt from the II-VI/Coherent combination, aerospace and defense end markets, export controls and networking-cycle exposure remain relevant context. The current total-assets ratios pass the examined limits, and the balance sheet no longer has the preferred-equity balance that was historically discussed.
What the filing changes
The Form 10-Q reports $17.287 billion of assets, $3.194 billion of debt, $1.593 billion of cash, $825.0 million of short-term investments, $1.188 billion of receivables and $1.806 billion of quarterly revenue. ZakatInvest does not invent a purification percentage when gross interest income is not separately quantified.
Bottom line
COHR is generally halal on the current asset-based screen but incomplete. Recheck the next filing and apply the methodology used by your preferred adviser.
