These are the SC Malaysia financial benchmarks applied to US filings, for comparison only. AAOIFI, DJIM and S&P measure debt against market value instead, which needs live share prices; those ratios are coming. Some companies report interest income inside other lines, so a missing figure is not zero.

Deengen does not issue fatwas or verdicts. Labels summarise decisions published by regulators, Shariah index boards and Shariah-supervised funds, dated and linked. Ratios are arithmetic from the company's own filings, shown next to published benchmarks, not a ruling. Nothing here is a recommendation to buy, sell or hold. Capital at risk. Ask a qualified scholar for a ruling that applies to you.
