British American Tobacco p.l.c. (BATS.L) is currently considered not halal (non-compliant), per In-house ratio engine (last assessed 2026-08-27). See the full ratio breakdown and business-activity screen below for the reasoning.
⚠️ Financial ratios are only half the screen, and this verdict does not rest on them. Our business-activity screen classifies British American Tobacco p.l.c. under tobacco, which is an excluded sector — so the verdict is non-compliant even though some ratios below pass. Business activity is a hard gate that ratio math never captures.
Computed from Yahoo Finance fundamentals (Tier-4 provider, no filing available), balance sheet as of 2025-12-31. BATS.L files no SEC reports, so these ratios come from the issuer's own published statements rather than XBRL.

Classic floor-trader pivots from the last completed daily bar. Highlighted pills are the levels bracketing the current price.
The range is measured volatility (ATR over the horizon), not a target — a wider band means a more volatile asset, not a stronger view. The direction is the indicator tally above. Every forecast is recorded when made and scored against the real price when it comes due, including the wrong ones. Not a recommendation, and not a fatwa.
