Revenue Sources

Based on review of Ecolab's financial statements and business operations, their revenue comes primarily from water treatment, hygiene solutions, and cleaning services.

There is no evidence of significant revenue from prohibited sources like alcohol, gambling, or other haram activities.

Reliance on Interest

Reporting Date Total Revenue Total Expense Interest Income Interest Expense Interest Income Ratio Interest Expense Ratio
Dec. 31, 2024 $4.01b $3.48b - $61.7m 0.00% 1.77%
Sept. 30, 2024 $4.0b $3.02b - $70.4m 0.00% 2.33%
June 30, 2024 $3.99b $3.41b - $78.8m 0.00% 2.31%
March 31, 2024 $3.75b $3.31b - $71.6m 0.00% 2.17%

Analyzing the last four quarters of financial data: Interest expense averaged 1.8% of total expenses across the periods reviewed. While the company does have some interest-bearing debt, the interest expense ratio remains below the 5% threshold that would indicate material reliance on interest.

Operational Ethics

Pass

Based on review of company disclosures and public information, there is no evidence of substantial ongoing ties with entities involved in human rights violations. While Ecolab operates globally, there are no documented material connections with the Chinese Communist Party or current operations in Israel that would raise concerns.
