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 which are forward-looking statements, including in its
periodic reports that Burford files with, or furnishes to, the US
Securities and Exchange Commission, other information sent 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 you 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, (i) impacts resulting
from changes to Burford's valuation policy for capital provision
assets, including any requirement to recast or restate Burford's
historical financial statements and/or disclose a material weakness
in internal controls in connection with these changes, (ii) the
successful completion of audit and other procedures and other
conditions necessary to issue Burford's audited financial
statements and to file Burford's annual report on Form 20-F for the
year ended December 31, 2022 with the SEC, and (iii) those
discussed under "Risk Factors" in Burford's annual report on Form
20-F for the year ended December 31, 2021 filed with the US
Securities and Exchange Commission on March 29, 2022, Burford's
interim report on Form 6-K furnished to the US Securities and
Exchange Commission on August 9, 2022 and other reports or
documents that Burford files with, or furnishes to, the SEC 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.
