THRY is Doubtful3/4 screens passed

Although Thryv Holdings passes the business activity screen with its permissible SaaS and marketing solutions, it fails the AAOIFI financial screens due to a severely high debt load. The company's debt-to-market cap ratio sits at an alarming 149.0%, far exceeding the 33% threshold, rendering the stock doubtful for halal portfolios despite having negligible interest income.

Shariah Screening Details for THRY

Business Activity

Permissible

Thryv's core business of providing cloud-based digital marketing solutions and SaaS platforms for SMBs is permissible under Islamic finance principles, as it does not involve haram activities.

About Thryv Holdings, Inc. (THRY)

Thryv Holdings, Inc. provides digital marketing solutions and cloud-based software tailored for small-to-medium sized businesses (SMBs). Its core offerings include the Thryv end-to-end customer experience platform, Hub by Thryv for franchisors, and ThryvPay, a payment processing solution.

For Muslim investors, THRY currently carries a Doubtful shariah compliance status based on AAOIFI standards. While its core software and marketing services are permissible, the stock fails critical financial screening criteria, meaning it cannot be considered a halal investment at this time.

The primary concern for Islamic investors is the company's massive debt burden, with a debt-to-market cap ratio of 149.0%, drastically exceeding the 33% limit. On a positive note, Thryv's interest-bearing cash and securities are well within limits at 6.2%, and it derives 0.00% of its revenue from interest income.

Investors should monitor Thryv's balance sheet in future quarters to see if the company aggressively pays down its conventional debt. Until the debt-to-market cap ratio falls below the 33% threshold, shariah-conscious investors should avoid this stock.
