What the company does
D.R. Horton is the largest US homebuilder (about 90,000 homes a year), focused on affordable and first-time buyers. Its money comes from home sales; the mortgage unit (DHI Mortgage) ratio is checked by the screener.
What was checked
The AAOIFI standard has four steps: business activity first, then three financial ratios. Fail one and the stock is not halal.

No data
Figures from the company's filings (2026-06-30), USD. Market cap is a 36-month average (the S&P Shariah index approach), so a one-day price move does not flip the verdict. Today's market cap: $36.72B.
For information (AAOIFI 3/1 note): cash + receivables are 6.8% of total assets (2026-06-30). AAOIFI recommends tangible assets of at least one third — this figure does not affect the verdict, and other major screeners do not apply it either.
