Is Inspired Entertainment (INSE) stock Halal?
Inspired Entertainment, Inc. (INSE) is not Shariah compliant in the September 2026 AAOIFI screening: it fails the non-permissible income and interest-bearing debt screens. Tabadulat re-screens INSE monthly, and a stock can return to compliance when new financial reports change its ratios.
Inspired Entertainment is a leading provider of gaming solutions and virtual sports systems worldwide, offering a broad portfolio of products across various gaming sectors. The company specializes in the development and supply of diversified content and technology for gaming, lottery, social, and leisure operators. Inspired Entertainment’s primary function is to create engaging and dynamic gaming experiences, supported by its advanced platform technology utilized in online casinos, sports betting platforms, and interactive gaming outlets. Before any of that matters to a Muslim investor, one question comes first: is Inspired Entertainment stock Halal?
Is Inspired Entertainment Shariah compliant?
Industrial businesses like Inspired Entertainment usually pass the activity screen without drama. The harder test is financial: heavy assets mean heavy financing, and AAOIFI Shariah Standard No. 21 tolerates interest bearing debt and investments only below 30% of market capitalisation, ratios that shift with every move in the share price.
Does Inspired Entertainment pass the business activity test?
The activity screen is only part of the picture this month: Inspired Entertainment currently fails the non-permissible income and interest-bearing debt screens, so the overall verdict is not compliant regardless of the business itself. The activity itself raises no Shariah objection; the scrutiny belongs to the financing.
Is Inspired Entertainment's income Halal?
No. Inspired Entertainment'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 Inspired Entertainment meet AAOIFI's debt and investment ratio requirements?
Not in full. Interest bearing debt currently exceeds the 30% cap, while the other ratio stays within it. One breach is enough to fail the screening; the ratios are reassessed monthly under our Shariah Supervisory Board.
