Is Clene (CLNN) stock Halal?
September 2026 AAOIFI screening result for Clene, Inc. (CLNN): non-permissible income, fail. Interest-bearing investments, pass. Interest-bearing debt, pass. Preference shares, pass. Clene, Inc. is not currently Shariah compliant. Re-screened monthly against AAOIFI Shariah Standard No. 21.
Clene is a biopharmaceutical company that focuses on the development of nanotechnology-based therapies for neurodegenerative diseases. Its primary purpose is to innovate and advance treatment options for conditions such as multiple sclerosis, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), and Parkinson's disease. Founded on the principles of using clean-surfaced, highly catalytic nanocrystals, Clene strives to enhance cellular energy production, which is crucial for neuronal health and function. Before any of that matters to a Muslim investor, one question comes first: is Clene stock Halal?
Is Clene Shariah compliant?
Consumer staples companies like Clene face the screening question at the shelf, not the balance sheet: does any revenue come from alcohol, tobacco or other impermissible lines? AAOIFI Shariah Standard No. 21 tolerates such income only below 5% of revenue, with the financial ratios checked behind it.
Does Clene pass the business activity test?
The activity screen is only part of the picture this month: Clene currently fails the non-permissible income screen, so the overall verdict is not compliant regardless of the business itself. The watch item is the product mix: any alcohol, tobacco or similar lines count against the 5% ceiling.
Is Clene's income Halal?
No. Clene's income from impermissible sources currently exceeds AAOIFI's 5% revenue ceiling, which makes the stock non-compliant on this screen regardless of the others. The screen is reassessed monthly, so the status can change when new financial statements arrive.
Does Clene meet AAOIFI's debt and investment ratio requirements?
Yes. Both caps hold this month: interest bearing investments and interest bearing debt each stay below 30% of market capitalisation. Because the caps move with the share price, our Shariah Supervisory Board has CLNN re-screened every month, and the result above always shows the latest verdict.
