Summary judgment looks likely. Nobody has to date suggested any plausible defence. Which is why Burford could sell tranches of the case: you don't need any evidence at all to understand the legal position That's also why Argentina fought so hard on jurisdiction grounds. I think we get the judgment in June. Discussion of quantum could be separate. Or it settles before.

"But we are deep into the endgam"

How can this be true. Surely no summary judgement and it proceeds to trial which is going to take many more months.

More info. My understanding is that both sides have to file their application for summary judgment by March 31 and their reply by May 12. Then it's over to the judge. But we are deep into the endgame

I would read that as “from 10 June”, but my Spanish is rusty

Boris sounding very tough this morning on SPV ownership My guess is that if the worst happens in Ukraine the pressure to reform will be too great

This is a great podcast on the economic climate generally but I was pleasantly surprised to see this global manager sing the praises of BUR at about 43/44 mins https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/the-moneyweek-podcast/id1048958476

Yep, new cases will price for it Old ones will have damages based on historic events but will have the new costs of realising those historic damages It's a bit of a potential tail wind; but nothing that ought to be too concerning Higher litigation costs also beneifts litigation funding relative to law firms taking contingent fee risk, and amongst litigation funders ought to be somewhat helpful to those with larger balance sheets

Inflation/costs will be priced into or mitigated against in any projects going forwards, the change over the last year might have caught a lot of people out but they can't say they didn't see it coming twice.

But surely with Burford they negotiate settlements towards the end, this would affect companies negotiating at the start of projects more.

It ought to - disruption and dislocations in general are good for litigation The one down side is that the cost of bringing claims is soaring as lawyer labour shortfall/exploding salaries hit Though of course the value of claims rises with inflation too, albeit with a considerable time lag

Well I have just taken the plunge after watching this for over a year.

I am hoping Covid is in the rear view mirror now and the court backlogs will clear quicker than the NHS ones.

Investors are impatient and this will have been a long wait for BUR investors. 'Jam tomorrow' is an apt description of the uncertainty here.

On top of this (perhaps someone can give an answer), with Covid, all the world uncertainty and a change to inflationary environment that the financial system is unprepared for, should this provide an increasing number of new claims lines that BUR can take advantage of?

So sophisticated investors lap up losses and an share price in the doldrums for 3 years?

Always jam tomorrow, tiresome...

Good to see BUR holding up pretty well on what at face value looked pretty disappointing results (ie loss of 70-80). I think this shows the shareholder base is becoming increasingly sophisticated and understands that profits will be lumpy and not to read too much into one single period. I'm sure if these were released a couple of years ago the share price would have tanked as clueless retail investors (not to mention some clueless institutional investors) ran for the hills.

They sold half their position close to the top and then bought back in when the share price was well below NAV So I'll happily do what they do

Well between them Molot and Bogart already own nearly 10% of the SC, so they could hardly be accused of not having 'skin in the game'.

The proof of the pudding will be "to wait and see if Bogart and Co buy more shares with their annual bonus".

I'd prefer to look at 2023 anyway regardless. Some of the European waterfalls will be starting to bear fruit slightly after that as well.

I think I've seen another EPS surge like that somewhere else but I can't remember where. That was justified by counting Petersen chickens before they're properly hatched...

Absolutely possible of course as we all know but wait and see might be more sensible.

Admin costs will have risen quite a bit and will lead realisations by a few years. They're been expanding staff count and also made a point not that long ago that legal salaries in law firms in general have sky rocketed over the last few years - inevitably they'll have to pay more to compete and keep/attract talent.
