Is Health Catalyst (HCAT) stock Halal?
As of the September 2026 screening, Health Catalyst, Inc. (HCAT) does not meet the AAOIFI Shariah Standard No. 21 threshold for the interest-bearing investments and interest-bearing debt screens, so the stock is not currently classified as Shariah compliant. It is re-screened every month and can regain compliance if its financial structure changes.
Health Catalyst is a technology company that provides data and analytics solutions to healthcare organizations. Its primary function is to help healthcare providers improve clinical and financial outcomes by leveraging data-driven insights. The company offers a comprehensive software platform known as Data Operating System (DOS), which aggregates and analyzes vast amounts of healthcare data. This platform supports a range of applications, including quality improvement, patient safety, and operational efficiency. For Muslim investors, though, the most pressing question is simpler: is Health Catalyst a Halal investment?
Is Health Catalyst Shariah compliant?
Medicines and medical devices are permissible, and healthcare companies like Health Catalyst usually clear the activity screen comfortably. What AAOIFI Shariah Standard No. 21 watches is the financing behind the pipeline: drug development is expensive, and the 30% interest bearing debt cap decides the verdict more often than the science does.
Does Health Catalyst pass the business activity test?
The activity screen is only part of the picture this month: Health Catalyst currently fails the interest-bearing investments and interest-bearing debt screens, so the overall verdict is not compliant regardless of the business itself. Treating illness is permissible work; the scrutiny belongs to the financing behind it.
Is Health Catalyst's income Halal?
Yes, within AAOIFI's tolerance. Health Catalyst's income from non-permissible sources stays below 5% of revenue in the September 2026 screening.
Does Health Catalyst meet AAOIFI's debt and investment ratio requirements?
No. Both ratios currently breach the 30% caps: interest bearing investments and interest bearing debt each exceed the limit AAOIFI permits for a Halal investment. The ratios move with the share price as well as the balance sheet, and our Shariah Supervisory Board has HCAT re-screened every month.
