Simulations Plus is a provider of specialized **modeling and simulation software and consulting services** for the life sciences and related industries. The company focuses on tools that predict absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion, and toxicity (ADMET), supporting drug discovery, preclinical and clinical development, and regulatory submissions. Before any of that matters to a Muslim investor, one question comes first: is Simulations Plus stock Halal?
Is Simulations Plus Shariah compliant?
Healthcare rarely troubles the activity screen; treating illness is permissible work. For Simulations Plus, the AAOIFI Shariah Standard No. 21 verdict turns on the balance sheet instead: research is capital hungry, and interest bearing debt and investments must each stay below 30% of market capitalisation.
Does Simulations Plus pass the business activity test?
Yes. In the September 2026 screening Simulations Plus holds an overall PASS, which a stock only earns when its core business clears the activity screen. Treating illness is permissible work; the scrutiny belongs to the financing behind it.
Is Simulations Plus' income Halal?
Yes, within AAOIFI's tolerance. Simulations Plus' 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 98.45% tells holders of SLP what share of each dividend to keep and what remainder to donate to charity.
Does Simulations Plus 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 SLP re-screened every month, and the result above always shows the latest verdict.
