What the company does
Paramount Skydance, formed by the 2025 Skydance merger, is a media company: the CBS network, Paramount Pictures, Paramount+ streaming, Nickelodeon, MTV and Showtime. Revenue comes from advertising, cable fees, subscriptions and box office.
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

Interest-bearing debt $15.16B ÷ 36-month average market cap $10.24B = 148.0%

Fail
Cash & investments / market cap

Cash + interest-bearing securities $1.63B ÷ 36-month average market cap $10.24B = 15.9%
15.9%
Pass
Non-compliant income / total revenue

Interest income $151.00M ÷ annual revenue $29.21B (2024) = 0.5%

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: $10.99B.
For information (AAOIFI 3/1 note): cash + receivables are 17.6% 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.
