Is GENERAL MILLS INC (GIS) stock halal?
Thresholds exceeded under all standards, and the strict view excludes it.
This verdict follows the median view, that of AAOIFI Standard No. 21. It is based on the financial statements for the fiscal year ended 05/31/2026.
The ratios
| Criterion | Measure | Threshold | Result |
|---|---|---|---|
| Interest-bearing debt | 52.5% of market capitalization | 30% | threshold exceeded |
| Interest-bearing investments | 1.8% of market capitalization | 30% | within threshold |
| Impermissible income | 0.2% of revenue | 5% | within threshold |

Margin to threshold and trend
| Item | Ratio (fiscal year end) | Threshold (AAOIFI, Standard No. 21) | Margin | Change since year end | Estimated ratio |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Interest-bearing debt | 52.5% | 30% | −22.5% | not read | — |
| Interest-bearing investments | 1.8% | 30% | 28.2% | not read | — |
Change read from the quarterly financial statements filed with the SEC (form 10-Q ended 08/30/2026, 1 quarter after fiscal year end), with the same reader on both dates. The estimated ratio applies this change to the annual ratio, with market capitalization unchanged: it is an estimate, not a verdict. "On watch" flags a permitted company whose estimated ratio reaches the threshold, or is within 5 points of the threshold and rising. This is neither a forecast nor advice.
The three views
- Median view, our reference : the company is excluded.
- Strictest view : the company is excluded, because it borrows or invests at interest.
- Most lenient view : the company is excluded.
