NEW YORK, May 7, 2025 /PRNewswire/
-- Burford Capital Limited ("Burford"), the leading global finance and asset management firm focused on law,
today announces its unaudited financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2025 ("1Q25"). The full
detailed presentation of Burford's 1Q25 financial results can be viewed at http://investors.burfordcapital.com.
Burford's Chief Executive Officer Christopher Bogart commented:
"Burford delivered robust first
quarter results in what is typically a lighter seasonal period, demonstrating the continued momentum of our
portfolio. Both new business and realization activity were well above first quarter levels in recent years,
establishing a great start to the year. We believe the uncorrelated nature of legal finance positions our
business to perform through the volatile and uncertain market environment that investors face today. We
remain focused on the core drivers of shareholder value discussed at our recent 2025 Investor Day: Growing
the platform, turning the current portfolio into cash realizations and generating attractive returns on
capital."

This press release does not constitute an offer of any Burford private fund. Burford Capital
Investment Management LLC, which acts as the fund manager of all Burford private funds, is registered as an
investment adviser with the US Securities and Exchange Commission. The information provided in this
press release is for informational purposes only. Past performance is not indicative of future results. The
information contained in this press release is not, and should not be construed as, an offer to sell or the

Forward-looking statements
This press release contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the US
Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the US Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended,
that are intended to be covered by the safe harbor provided for under these sections. In some cases, words
such as "aim", "anticipate", "believe", "continue", "could", "estimate", "expect", "forecast", "guidance",
"intend", "may", "plan", "potential", "predict", "projected", "should" or "will", or the negative of such
terms or other comparable terminology, are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Although Buford
believes that the assumptions, expectations, projections, intentions and beliefs about future results and
events reflected in forward-looking statements have a reasonable basis and are expressed in good faith,
forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, which could
cause Burford's actual results and events to differ materially from (and be more negative than) future
results and events expressed, projected or implied by these forward-looking statements. Factors that might
cause future results and events to differ include, among others, those discussed in the "Risk Factors"
section of Burford's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 filed with the US
Securities and Exchange Commission on March 3, 2025. These factors should not be construed as exhaustive and
should be read in conjunction with the other cautionary statements contained in the periodic and current
reports that Burford files with or furnishes to the US Securities and Exchange Commission. Many of these
factors are beyond Burford's ability to control or predict, and new factors emerge from time to time.
Furthermore, Burford cannot assess the impact of each such factor on its business or the extent to which any
factor or combination of factors may cause actual results and events to be materially different from those
contained in any forward-looking statement. Given these uncertainties, readers are cautioned not to place
undue reliance on Burford's forward-looking statements.
All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to Burford or to persons acting on
its behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by these cautionary statements. The forward-looking
statements speak only as of the date of this press release and, except as required by applicable law,
Burford undertakes no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of
new information, future events or otherwise.
