Is Watts Water Technologies (WTS) 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. Watts Water Technologies, Inc. (WTS) passes all four screens as of September 2026, with a dividend purification factor of 99.78%.
Watts Water Technologies is a global provider of high-quality products and solutions designed to manage and conserve the flow of water within commercial, residential, and industrial applications. The company's primary function is to develop cutting-edge technologies that ensure the efficient and safe delivery, control, and drainage of water and wastewater. For Muslim investors, though, the most pressing question is simpler: is Watts Water Technologies a Halal investment?
Is Watts Water Technologies Shariah compliant?
For industrial companies like Watts Water Technologies, the product is rarely the problem; aircraft, vehicles and machinery are permissible. The exposure is leverage: fleets and factories are financed, and the 30% cap that AAOIFI Shariah Standard No. 21 places on interest bearing debt is the screen that decides most verdicts in this sector.
Does Watts Water Technologies pass the business activity test?
Yes. In the September 2026 screening Watts Water Technologies holds an overall PASS, which a stock only earns when its core business clears the activity screen. The activity itself raises no Shariah objection; the scrutiny belongs to the financing.
Is Watts Water Technologies' income Halal?
Yes, within AAOIFI's tolerance. Watts Water Technologies' 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 99.78% tells holders of WTS what share of each dividend to keep and what remainder to donate to charity.
Does Watts Water Technologies 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 WTS re-screened every month, and the result above always shows the latest verdict.
