Is Elastic (ESTC) stock Halal?
Elastic NV (ESTC) is Shariah compliant in the September 2026 AAOIFI screening, passing all four AAOIFI screens. Dividends are purified using a factor of 97.12%. Tabadulat re-screens ESTC monthly, and the status can change when new financial data arrives.
Elastic is a software company known for developing and providing solutions that enable businesses and organizations to search, analyze, and visualize data in real time. The company's primary product, the Elastic Stack, incorporates several key components such as Elasticsearch, Kibana, Beats, and Logstash, which function seamlessly together to help users gain actionable insights from diverse data sets. Elasticsearch serves as the central engine, offering full-text search, data storage, and analytics capabilities, while Kibana provides a user-friendly interface for visualization. Before any of that matters to a Muslim investor, one question comes first: is Elastic stock Halal?
Is Elastic Shariah compliant?
The Shariah case on a technology company like Elastic is rarely about the product. What AAOIFI Shariah Standard No. 21 examines is the money around the product: cash parked in instruments that earn Riba, borrowing measured against a market capitalisation that moves daily, and any incidental income from sources Islam prohibits, which must stay below 5% of revenue.
Does Elastic pass the business activity test?
Yes. In the September 2026 screening Elastic holds an overall PASS, which a stock only earns when its core business clears the activity screen. The watch item for technology names is incidental: cash returns and platform content can carry impermissible elements, which AAOIFI tolerates only below the thresholds.
Is Elastic's income Halal?
Yes, within AAOIFI's tolerance. Elastic's income from non-permissible sources stays below 5% of revenue in the September 2026 screening, and the small impure portion is handled through purification: the factor of 97.12% tells holders of ESTC what share of each dividend to keep and what remainder to donate to charity.
Does Elastic 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 ESTC re-screened every month, and the result above always shows the latest verdict.
