What the company does
Embraer (Brazil) is the world's third-largest aircraft maker: regional airliners (E-Jets), business jets (Phenom, Praetor), the C-390 military transport and aftermarket services. Revenue comes from aircraft sales and maintenance.
What was checked
The AAOIFI standard has four steps: business activity first, then three financial ratios. Fail one and the stock is not halal.
Business activity
No prohibited activity
Interest-bearing debt / market cap
limit 30%
Interest-bearing debt $2.59B ÷ 36-month average market cap (estimated) $8.18B = 31.6%
31.6%
Fail
Cash & investments / market cap
limit 30%
Cash + interest-bearing securities $2.34B ÷ 36-month average market cap (estimated) $8.18B = 28.6%
28.6%
Pass
Non-compliant income / total revenue
limit 5%
Interest income $119.70M ÷ annual revenue $7.58B (2025) = 1.6%
1.6%
Pass
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: $12.81B.
For information (AAOIFI 3/1 note): cash + receivables are 24.6% 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.
