Note on Purification and Zakat
- Purification and Zakat (for long-term investing) calculations are in USD per share and based on AAOIFI methodology. AAOIFI requires purification every financial period (e.g. quarterly).
- If you follow S&P Shariah’s Dividend-only purification, then remove the impure income % from the dividends you receive. No purification required for non-dividend paying stocks, according to S&P Shariah.
- For Zakat, if you did not invest in a company from a long term perspective, then consider the shares as trading goods and give 2.5% of the total value if a year has passed on them.
Company Profile
Akero Therapeutics, Inc. is a clinical-stage company that develops transformational treatments for patients with serious metabolic diseases. The Company is engaged to treat non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), a disease without any approved therapies. The Company’s lead product candidate, efruxifermin (EFX), is an analog of fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21), which is an endogenously expressed hormone that protects against cellular stress and regulates metabolism of lipids, carbohydrates and proteins throughout the body. EFX is being evaluated in two Phase 2b clinical trials in patients with biopsy-confirmed NASH: a long-term follow-up period for the HARMONY study in patients with pre-cirrhotic NASH (F2-F3 fibrosis), for which it reported results after 24 weeks of treatment, and the SYMMETRY study in patients with cirrhotic NASH (F4 fibrosis, compensated). Its EFX program focused on patients with cirrhotic NASH (F4, compensated), in Phase 2b clinical trial.
