Notice of 2024 Annual General Meeting

 

Burford Capital Limited ("Burford"), the leading global finance and asset
management firm focused on law, today announces that the Notice of 2024 Annual
General Meeting (the "Notice of AGM") has been sent to registered
shareholders, together with the annual report and accounts for the year ended
December 31, 2023.

 

The 2024 annual general meeting will be held at 9.00am BST on May 15, 2024 at
Oak House, Hirzel Street, St. Peter Port, Guernsey GY1 2NP. Full details of
the proposed resolutions, as well as the procedure for voting by proxy and
shareholder attendance, are set out in the Notice of AGM.

 

As a result of Burford's ordinary shares trading on both the New York Stock
Exchange and the London Stock Exchange, and Burford's incorporation in
Guernsey, additional time is required for Broadridge's tabulation of final
votes on the resolutions proposed at the 2024 annual general meeting.
Consequently, Burford expects that the final results of the voting at the 2024
annual general meeting will be announced on May 20, 2024.

of AGM, is available for viewing and download on Burford's website at:

Forward-looking statements

This announcement contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of
Section 21E of the US Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, regarding
assumptions, expectations, projections, intentions and beliefs about future
events. These statements are intended as "forward-looking statements". In some
cases, predictive, future-tense or forward-looking 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,
but are not the exclusive means of identifying such statements. In addition,
Burford and its representatives may from time to time make other oral or
written statements that are forward-looking, including in its periodic reports
that Burford files with, or furnishes to, the US Securities and Exchange
Commission, other information made available to Burford's security holders and
other written materials. By their nature, forward-looking statements involve
known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors because they relate
to events and depend on circumstances that may or may not occur in the future.
Burford cautions that forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future
performance and are based on numerous assumptions, expectations, projections,
intentions and beliefs and that Burford's actual results of operations,
including its financial position and liquidity, and the development of the
industry in which it operates, may differ materially from (and be more
negative than) those made in, or suggested by, the forward-looking statements
contained in this announcement. Significant factors that may cause actual
results to differ from those Burford expects include, among others, those
discussed under "Risk Factors" in Burford's annual report on Form 20-F for the
year ended December 31, 2023 filed with the US Securities and Exchange
Commission on March 28, 2024 and other reports or documents that Burford files
with, or furnishes to, the US Securities and Exchange Commission from time to
time. In addition, even if Burford's results of operations, including its
financial position and liquidity, and the development of the industry in which
it operates are consistent with the forward-looking statements contained in
this announcement, those results of operations or developments may not be
indicative of results of operations or developments in subsequent periods.

 

Except as required by law, Burford undertakes no obligation to update or
revise the forward-looking statements contained in this announcement, whether
as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
