Is SOPHiA GENETICS (SOPH) stock Halal?
Under AAOIFI Shariah Standard No. 21, a Halal stock keeps non-permissible income below 5% of revenue and interest-bearing debt and investments each below 30% of market capitalisation. SOPHiA GENETICS SA (SOPH) does not meet the threshold for the interest-bearing investments screen as of September 2026, so it is not Shariah compliant.
SOPHiA GENETICS is a global leader in data-driven medicine focused on enabling healthcare institutions to leverage artificial intelligence and data analytics to enhance clinical diagnosis. The company's main purpose is to democratize data-driven medicine, making genomic and other types of patient data insights accessible and actionable for healthcare providers worldwide. Sophia Genetics serves various sectors within the medical field, including oncology, cardiology, and rare genetic disorders, by providing powerful data interpretation solutions that empower personalized treatment plans. For Muslim investors, though, the most pressing question is simpler: is SOPHiA GENETICS a Halal investment?
Is SOPHiA GENETICS Shariah compliant?
Medicines and medical devices are permissible, and healthcare companies like SOPHiA GENETICS 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 SOPHiA GENETICS pass the business activity test?
The activity screen is only part of the picture this month: SOPHiA GENETICS currently fails the interest-bearing investments screen, 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 SOPHiA GENETICS' income Halal?
Yes, within AAOIFI's tolerance. SOPHiA GENETICS' income from non-permissible sources stays below 5% of revenue in the September 2026 screening.
Does SOPHiA GENETICS meet AAOIFI's debt and investment ratio requirements?
Not in full. Interest bearing investments currently exceed 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.
