## Exhibit 99.1

![image_1.jpg](image_1.jpg)

**February 26, 2026**

**Burford Reports 4Q25 and FY25 Financial Results**

Burford Capital Limited ("Burford"), the leading global finance and asset management firm focused on law, today announces its financial results for the three months ended December 31, 2025 ("4Q25") and the year ended December 31, 2025 ("FY25"). The full detailed presentation of Burford's 4Q25 and FY25 financial results, as well as a shareholder letter and detailed portfolio data table, can be viewed at http://investors.burfordcapital.com.

On February 25, 2026, Burford's board of directors declared a final dividend for the year ended December 31, 2025 of $0.0625 per ordinary share to be paid, subject to shareholder approval at the 2026 annual general meeting, on June 12, 2026 to shareholders of record on May 22, 2026.

**Christopher Bogart, Burford Capital's Chief Executive Officer, commented**:

"We had a terrific 2025 for new business, with new definitive commitments up 39%. Portfolio modeled realizations<sup>1</sup> increased $700 million to $5.2 billion at year end. In the part of our business where we have less influence – case progress and realizations – we brought in a substantial amount of cash, but our results were impacted by extended case durations and other unrealized fair value adjustments. The quality of the portfolio remains high, and we believe the future is bright in terms of growing the business and the potential for asymmetric upside value for shareholders."

Burford will hold a conference call for investors and analysts at 9.00am EST / 2.00pm GMT on Thursday, February 26, 2026. For swift access to the conference call at the time of the event, pre-registration is encouraged at https://registrations.events/direct/Q4I740130.

To minimize the risk of delayed access, participants are urged to dial into the conference call by 8.40am EST / 1.40pm GMT.

<sup>1</sup> Modeled realizations reflect expected future realizations from capital provision assets (excluding YPF-related assets) based on probabilistic modeling of portfolio and adjusted by an experience factor based on historical modeling accuracy rates. Modeled realizations calculation is derived from Burford's internal modeling of individual matters and of Burford's portfolio as a whole. These data are not a forecast of future results. See "Forward-looking statements", "Estimates and assumptions" and "Key performance indicators" for more information. See the full detailed presentation of Burford's 4Q25 and FY25 financial results for information on how modeled realizations are calculated.

**This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any ordinary shares or other securities of Burford.**

**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 solicitation of an offer to buy any securities (including interests or shares in any of Burford private funds). Any such offer or solicitation may be made only by means of a final confidential private placement memorandum and other offering documents.

**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, including Burford's target metrics and projections, such as modeled realizations, that are intended to be covered by the safe harbor provided for under these sections. In some cases, words such

------

![image_1.jpg](image_1.jpg)

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 Burford 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, 2025 filed with the US Securities and Exchange Commission on February 26, 2026. 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.

In addition to forward-looking statements, this press release includes certain data, such as modeled realizations, based on calculations derived from Burford's probabilistic modeling of individual matters and its portfolio as a whole. This data is not a forecast of future results, and past performance is not a guide to future performance. The inherent volatility and unpredictability of legal finance assets precludes forecasting and limits the predictive nature of Burford's probabilistic model. Furthermore, the inherent nature of the probabilistic model is that actual results will differ from the modeled results, and such differences could be material. The data based on calculations derived from Burford's probabilistic model contained in this press release is for informational purposes only and is not intended to be a profit forecast or be relied upon as a guide to future performance.

**Estimates and assumptions**

This press release includes certain unaudited financial and business projections, targets and goals with respect to Burford's future outlook (collectively, the "Estimates"). The Estimates reflect subjective judgment in many respects and thus are susceptible to multiple interpretations and periodic revisions based on actual experience and business developments. As such, the Estimates constitute forward-looking information and are subject to many risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results forecasted in these projections, targets or goals. There can be no assurance that the Estimates will be realized or that actual results will not be materially higher or lower than forecast. The Estimates cannot, therefore, be considered a guarantee of future results of operations, and this information should not be relied upon as such. The inclusion of the Estimates in this press release should not be regarded as an indication that Burford or any of its affiliates, officers, directors, employees or representatives considered or considers the Estimates to be necessarily predictive of actual future events, and the Estimates should not be relied upon as such. The inclusion of the Estimates herein should not be deemed an admission or representation by Burford that its

------

![image_1.jpg](image_1.jpg)

management views the Estimates as material information. Neither Burford nor any of its affiliates, officers, directors, employees or representatives has made or makes any representation to any of Burford's shareholders or any other person regarding the ultimate performance of Burford compared to the information contained in the Estimates or can give any assurance that actual results will not differ materially from the Estimates. BURFORD DOES NOT UNDERTAKE ANY OBLIGATION TO UPDATE OR OTHERWISE REVISE OR RECONCILE THE ESTIMATES TO REFLECT CIRCUMSTANCES EXISTING AFTER THE DATE THE ESTIMATES WERE GENERATED OR TO REFLECT THE OCCURRENCE OF FUTURE EVENTS, EVEN IN THE EVENT THAT ANY OR ALL OF THE ASSUMPTIONS UNDERLYING THE ESTIMATES ARE NO LONGER APPROPRIATE OR ARE SHOWN TO BE IN ERROR, EXCEPT AS MAY BE REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW.

**Key performance indicators**

Burford uses certain unaudited key performance indicators ("KPIs"). The KPIs are presented because Burford uses them to monitor its financial condition and results of operations and/or Burford believes they are useful to investors, securities analysts and other interested parties. The presentation of the KPIs is for informational purposes only and does not purport to present what Burford's actual financial condition or results of operations would have been, nor does it project its financial condition at any future date or its results of operations for any future period. The presentation of the KPIs is based on information available as of the date of this press release and certain assumptions and estimates that Burford believes are reasonable.

The information contained in this Presentation is provided as of the dates and for the periods indicated in this Presentation and is subject to change without notice. Forward-looking statements. This Presentation 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, including statements with respect to the Company's expectations regarding the performance of its business and legal finance assets and other nonhistorical statements, as well as the Company's target metrics and projections, such as modeled realizations and modeled return on invested capital ("ROIC"), 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 the Company 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 the Company's actual results and events to differ materially from (and be more negative than) future results and events expressed, targeted, projected or implied by these forward-looking statements. Factors that might cause future results and events to differ include, among others, the following: (i) adverse litigation outcomes and timing of resolution of litigation matters; (ii) the Company's ability to identify and select suitable legal finance assets; (iii) improper use or disclosure of, or access to, privileged information, intellectual property or litigation or business strategy due to cybersecurity breaches, unauthorized use or theft; (iv) inaccuracy or failure of the probabilistic model and decision science tools, including machine learning technology and generative artificial intelligence (collectively, "AI technologies"), the Company uses to predict the returns on its legal finance assets and in its operations; (v) changes and uncertainty in laws, regulations and rules relating to the legal finance industry, including those relating to privileged information and/or disclosure and enforceability of legal finance arrangements; (vi) inadequacies in the Company's due diligence process or unforeseen developments; (vii) credit risk and concentration risk relating to the Company's legal finance assets; (viii) lack of liquidity of the Company's legal finance assets and commitments in excess of its available capital; (ix) the Company's ability to obtain attractive external capital, refinance its outstanding indebtedness or raise capital to meet its liquidity needs; (x) competitive factors and demand for the Company's services and capital; (xi) failure of lawyers who prosecute and/or defend claims that the Company has financed to exercise due skill and care or the misalignment of their interests or those of their clients with the Company's; (xii) poor performance by the commitments the Company makes on behalf of its private funds; (xiii) negative publicity about or public perception of the legal finance industry or the Company; (xiv) valuation uncertainty with respect to the fair value of the Company's capital provision assets; (xv) current and future legal, political and economic factors, including uncertainty surrounding the effects, severity and duration of public health threats and/or military actions; (xvi) developments in AI technologies and expectations relating to environmental, social and governance considerations; (xvii) potential liability from litigation and legal proceedings against the Company; (xviii) the Company's ability to hire and retain key personnel; (xix) risks relating to the Company's international operations as a result of differing legal and regulatory requirements, political, social and economic conditions and unforeseeable developments; (xx) exposure to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations; (xxi) uncertainty relating to the tax treatment of the Company's financing arrangements; (xxii) information systems risks or improper functioning of the Company's information systems or those of its third-party service providers; (xxiii) failure of the Company's third-party service providers to fulfill their obligations or misconduct by its third-party service providers; (xxiv) failure by the Company to maintain the privacy and security of personal information and comply with applicable data privacy and protection laws and regulations; (xxv) failure by the Company to maintain effective internal control over financial reporting or effective disclosure controls and procedures; (xxvi) failure by the Company to comply with the requirements of being a US domestic public company and the costs associated therewith; and (xxvii) certain risks relating to the Company's incorporation in Guernsey. These factors should not be construed as exhaustive and should be read in conjunction with the other cautionary statements contained in the Company's periodic and current reports that it files with or furnishes to the US Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). Many of these factors are beyond the Company's ability to control or predict, and new factors emerge from time to time. Furthermore, the Company 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 the Company's forward-looking statements.

Notice and disclaimer (continued) Estimates and Assumptions. This Presentation includes certain unaudited financial and business projections, targets and goals with respect to the Company's future outlook (collectively, the "Estimates"). The Estimates reflect subjective judgment in many respects and thus are susceptible to multiple interpretations and periodic revisions based on actual experience and business developments. As such, the Estimates constitute forward-looking information and are subject to many risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results forecasted in these projections, targets or goals. There can be no assurance that the Estimates will be realized or that actual results will not be materially higher or lower than forecast. The Estimates cannot, therefore, be considered a guarantee of future results of operations, and this information should not be relied upon as such. The inclusion of the Estimates in this Presentation should not be regarded as an indication that the Company or any of its affiliates, officers, directors, employees or representatives considered or considers the Estimates to be necessarily predictive of actual future events, and the Estimates should not be relied upon as such. The inclusion of the Estimates herein should not be deemed an admission or representation by the Company that its management views the Estimates as material information. Neither the Company nor any of its affiliates, officers, directors, employees or representatives has made or makes any representation to any of the Company's shareholders or any other person regarding the ultimate performance of the Company compared to the information contained in the Estimates or can give any assurance that actual results will not differ materially from the Estimates. Certain of the projected financial information in this Presentation may be considered non-GAAP financial measures. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, as substitutes for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with US GAAP (as defined below), and non-GAAP financial measures as used by the Company may not be comparable to similarly titled amounts used by other companies. No reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures in the Estimates to measures calculated in accordance with US GAAP was created or used in connection with preparing the Estimates. In light of the foregoing factors and the uncertainties inherent in the Estimates, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on the Estimates. THE COMPANY DOES NOT UNDERTAKE ANY OBLIGATION TO UPDATE OR OTHERWISE REVISE OR RECONCILE THE ESTIMATES TO REFLECT CIRCUMSTANCES EXISTING AFTER THE DATE THE ESTIMATES WERE GENERATED OR TO REFLECT THE OCCURRENCE OF FUTURE EVENTS, EVEN IN THE EVENT THAT ANY OR ALL OF THE ASSUMPTIONS UNDERLYING THE ESTIMATES ARE NO LONGER APPROPRIATE OR ARE SHOWN TO BE IN ERROR, EXCEPT AS MAY BE REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW. Basis of presentation; non-GAAP financial measures; key performance indicators; definitions. The Company reports its financial results in accordance with the generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("US GAAP"). US GAAP requires the Company to present financial statements that consolidate some of the limited partner interests in private funds the Company manages as well as assets held on the Company's balance sheet where it has a partner or minority investor. As a result, the Company uses various measures, including Burford-only and adjusted Burford-only financial measures, which are calculated and presented using methodologies other than in accordance with US GAAP, to supplement analysis and discussion of its consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with US GAAP. The Company believes that the presentation of Burford-only financial measures is consistent with how management measures and assesses the performance of the Company's reporting segments, which are evaluated by management on a Burford-only basis, and that the presentation of Burford-only and adjusted Burford-only financial measures provides valuable and useful information to investors to aid in understanding the Company's performance in addition to its consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with US GAAP by eliminating the effect of the consolidation. In addition, the Company's segment reporting, which conveys the performance of its business across two reportable segments—Principal Finance and Asset Management and Other Services—is presented on a Burford-only basis. The Company refers to its segment reporting in the aggregate as "total segments". The Company also uses additional non-GAAP financial measures, such as cash receipts, tangible book value attributable to Burford Capital Limited per ordinary share ("TBVPS"), return on tangible common equity ("ROTCE") and various indebtedness leverage ratios. The Company believes that (i) cash receipts are an important measure of the Company's operating and financial performance and are useful to management and investors when assessing the performance of Burford-only capital provision assets, (ii) TBVPS is an important measure of the Company's financial condition and is useful to management and investors when assessing capital adequacy and the Company's ability to generate earnings on tangible equity invested by its shareholders and (iii) ROTCE is an important measure of the Company's operating and financial performance and is useful to management and investors when assessing the performance of Burford-only capital provision assets. The non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, as substitutes for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with US GAAP. In addition, the Company uses certain unaudited key performance indicators ("KPIs"). The KPIs are presented because the Company uses them to monitor its financial condition and results of operations and/or the Company believes they are useful to investors, securities analysts and other interested parties. The presentation of the KPIs is for informational purposes only and does not purport to present what the Company's actual financial condition or results of operations would have been, nor does it project its financial condition at any future date or its results of operations for any future period. The presentation of the KPIs is based on information available as of the date of this Presentation and certain assumptions and estimates that the Company believes are reasonable. Additional information with respect to these non- GAAP financial measures and KPIs, their respective definitions and calculations and related reconciliations are provided in "Other Reconciliations" and "Glossary" sections of this Presentation. \* \* \* \* \*

Burford Reports 4Q25 & FY25 Financial Results "We had a terrific 2025 for new business, with new definitive commitments up 39%. Portfolio modeled realizations increased $700 million to $5.2 billion at year end. In the part of our business where we have less influence – case progress and realizations – we brought in a substantial amount of cash, but our results were impacted by extended case durations and other unrealized fair value adjustments. The quality of the portfolio remains high, and we believe the future is bright in terms of growing the business and the potential for asymmetric upside value for shareholders." Christopher Bogart Chief Executive Officer Dividend On February 25, 2026, Burford's board of directors declared a final dividend for the year ended December 31, 2025 of $0.0625 per ordinary share to be paid, subject to shareholder approval at the 2026 annual general meeting, on June 12, 2026 to shareholders of record on May 22, 2026.

Realization activity remains high with the largest contributors driving absolute dollars 11 • Realization activity continues a strong pace with 69 assets generating proceeds in FY25 compared to 71 in FY24, with realization dollars lagging the prior year level due to variance in the largest contributors • While FY25 and FY24 realizations were supported by a similar number of assets contributing $10 million or more, there were more large, chunky realizations in FY24 resulting in a higher contribution from those large case recoveries • On a rolling three-year basis, a time period more aligned with the weighted average life of concluded assets, realizations continue to climb 228 367 553 694 746 840 829 951 1,111 1,471 1,556 2015 2016 2017 2018 2019 2020 2021 2022 2023 2024 2025 Rolling 3Y realizations Rolling three-year realizations Principal Finance (excluding private fund interests) ($ in millions) $505 $131 $5 $347 $105 $6 Greater than $10M Between $1 to 10M Less than $1M FY24 ($) FY25 ($) Realizations by individual asset contribution – FY25 vs FY24 Principal Finance ($ in millions) FY25 Realizations $458m # of assets 69 FY24 Realizations $641m # of assets 71 1416 3034 2521 # of Assets Key Messages

Portfolio generated plenty of wins in 2025…but duration and unrealized losses weighed on results 12 • Capital provision income in FY25 saw higher asset-level gains as well as higher asset-level losses when compared to FY24 • However, the higher asset losses were largely unrealized in nature – Driven by the extension of expected duration assumptions in the valuation models for certain assets, as well as some case developments – The following case studies, relating to matters where Burford's funding is publicly disclosed, provide incremental insight on some of the assets' progress and each's impact on its fair value model Key Messages 579 331248 Gains Losses Capital provision income 508 388120 Gains Losses Capital provision income Capital provision income – gains/losses breakout1 Principal Finance ($ in millions) FY25FY24 212 15854 Gains Losses Net realized gains 361 32734 Gains Losses Net realized gains FY25FY24 Net realized gains – gains/losses breakout Principal Finance ($ in millions) Asset-level breakout Asset-level breakout 1) "Other capital provision income/(loss)", which include FX impact for the period, is reflected in "Gains" for purposes of this illustrative breakout.

Sysco proteins antitrust cases are proceeding well, but extended duration caused an unrealized loss 13 Key Messages • Efforts by Pilgrim's Pride to force a settlement upon us were rejected by the court, which noted that subsequent case developments favorable to plaintiffs would suggest higher settlement values • Ruling is a good result because it enables us to pursue a more attractive settlement – the return of the prior settlement in 1Q26, is a price worth paying Track 1 claims survived summary judgment; track 2 cases are still in discovery but track 1 surviving summary judgment is a strong sign for track 2 Pork Beef Chicken Awaiting class certification ruling before expert discovery will proceed Trial scheduled for October 2026Turkey Past summary judgment and headed for trial NOTE: The case remains in active litigation, and all litigation carries significant risks of uncertainty and unpredictability until final resolution, including the risk of total loss. Burford disclaims, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any obligation to update its views and interpretation as the litigation proceeds. • Duration and litigation costs have extended, resulting in a reduction of $22 million in fair value during FY25 across all Sysco proteins antitrust cases RECENT SIGNIFICANT WIN FOR BURFORD IN SEVENTH CIRCUIT COMPLEX LITIGATION TAKES TIME AND CREATES NOISE

Food distributor bankruptcy caused an unrealized loss despite positive case outlook 14 Key Messages • Client was the largest independent wholesale food distributorship in the US with $4 billion of annual revenue • Burford provided capital in connection with the client's significant claims in the proteins antitrust cases • Client went into Chapter 11 in May 2025 • Notwithstanding bankruptcy, claims are still being settled and paying cash proceeds NOTE: The case remains in active litigation, and all litigation carries significant risks of uncertainty and unpredictability until final resolution, including the risk of total loss. Burford disclaims, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any obligation to update its views and interpretation as the litigation proceeds. CASE OVERVIEW CLIENT INSOLVENCY PROCEEDINGS AND IMPACT ON BURFORD RESULTS OUTLOOK • Claims are being paid and we expect a recovery • Bankruptcy process is uncertain at present, but even if we end up as a pari passu unsecured creditor we still expect to achieve some recovery and perhaps even a full recovery of our principal and some profit • Obviously, it is unhelpful when our clients go into Chapter 11 • Worse still, a bankruptcy judge excluded us from the secured creditor pool, which is being appealed • In the interim, the posture of the matter caused a meaningful reduction of $25 million in fair value during FY25

Mining arbitration unrealized loss with dual path to recovery 15 Key Messages • Australian mining company invested more than A$400 million into developing the Mbalam-Nabeba Iron Ore Project in the Republic of Congo, relying on passage through Cameroon to access shipping • After the mines were in the process of being developed for over a decade, in 2020 the two governments revoked the company's permits and awarded them instead to the same Chinese company, which was also awarded the revoked licenses of two other companies, on the same day • Company commenced arbitrations against both Republic of Congo and Cameroon, both financed by Burford, with Burford's recovery coming from either case NOTE: The case remains in active litigation, and all litigation carries significant risks of uncertainty and unpredictability until final resolution, including the risk of total loss. Burford disclaims, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any obligation to update its views and interpretation as the litigation proceeds. CASE PROGRESS IMPACT ON BURFORD RESULTS • In the Republic of Congo case, an arbitration tribunal recently ruled against the company • Company disagrees and has filed for the English courts to overturn the arbitral award • The Cameroon case is submitted and awaiting decision from a different tribunal • Cases where we have two ways to win are obviously more valuable than cases with a binary outcome, and so when we lose one of the two ways to win, that reduces the fair value of the portfolio because the risk has gone up • Latest developments led to a reduction of $10 million in fair value during FY25 • However, if we win against Cameroon, or if company gets the English court to overturn the Republic of Congo award, we could well recover our entire entitlement regardless of this unrealized loss as the cases are cross-collateralized CASE OVERVIEW

YPF-related assets: We remain well-positioned to monetize 16 • We believe YPF-related assets will ultimately deliver a ten-figure recovery for Burford, but litigation risk remains • Final judgment a complete win against Argentina of $16 billion, at the high end of the possible range of damages • Argentina has appealed to the Second Circuit Court of Appeals; oral argument held on October 29, 2025 with decision to follow in the months to come • Fair value of YPF-related assets of $1.7 billion as of December 31, 2025 • Among other enforcement actions globally, on June 30, 2025, the US District Court for the Southern District of New York ordered Argentina to turn over its Class D shares of YPF to partially satisfy the judgment; that order is also currently under appeal to the Second Circuit Court of Appeals YPF CASES' PROCESS 1 Expected Burford-only net entitlement 2 Around 35% of proceeds from Petersen case Around 82% of proceeds from Eton Park case ENFORCEMENT PROCESS September 15, 2023 FINAL JUDGMENT APPEAL BY ARGENTINA 1) While Burford offers in this Presentation its views and interpretation of the ruling, those are qualified in their entirety by the actual text of the ruling, and we caution that investors cannot rely on Burford's statements in preference to the actual ruling. In the event of any inconsistency between this Presentation and the text of the actual ruling, the text of the actual ruling will prevail and be dispositive. Burford disclaims, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any obligation to update its views and interpretation as the litigation proceeds. Moreover, the case remains in active litigation, and all litigation carries significant risks of uncertainty and unpredictability until final resolution, including the risk of total loss. Finally, Burford is and will continue to be constrained by legal privilege and client confidences in terms of the scope of its ability to speak publicly about the case or the ruling. Burford also cautions that there are meaningful remaining risks in the case, including appeals, enforcement and collateral litigation in other jurisdictions. Moreover, litigation matters often resolve for considerably less than the amount of any judgment rendered by the courts and to the extent that any settlement or resolution discussions occur in this case no public communication about those discussions will be possible until their conclusion. 2) In both Petersen and Eton Park, these numbers are approximations and will vary somewhat depending on the ultimate level of case costs by the end of the case, as we expect continued significant spending on the case.

1) Assets under management of $3,172 million reflects the fair value of the capital invested in private funds and individual capital vehicles plus the capital that we are entitled to call from investors in those private funds and vehicles. The total portfolio value shown for our Asset Management and Other Services segment of $1,782 million reflects the fair value of portfolio assets plus the undrawn commitments to portfolio assets, and also excludes the balance sheet's interest in the Advantage Fund, which is reflected in the portfolio value for our Principal Finance segment. 2) Management fees are paid to BCIM for investment management and advisory services provided to our private funds. The management fee rates set forth in the table above are annualized and applied to an asset or commitment base that typically varies between a private fund's investment period and any subsequent periods in the fund term. We no longer earn any management fees from BCIM Partners II, LP, BCIM Partners III, LP, COLP and BAIF. As of September 2025, we also no longer earn any management fees from BAIF II. Performance fees represent carried interest applied to distributions to a private fund's limited partners after the return of capital contributions and preferred returns. 3) Includes amounts related to "sidecar" funds. 4) Ceased commitments to new legal finance assets in the fourth quarter of 2018 due to capacity. 5) Ceased commitments to new legal finance assets in the fourth quarter of 2020 due to capacity. 6) The Advantage Fund does not have a traditional management and performance fee structure but instead provides the first 10% of annual simple returns to the fund investors while we retain any excess returns. However, if the Advantage Fund produces returns in excess of 18% (which are supranormal for this level of risk), a level of sharing with the fund investors would take effect, but we do not expect that to occur.

Cash Receipts 1) Adjustments for the change in asset management receivables accrued during the applicable period but not yet received as of the end of such period. \* Cash receipts provide a measure of the cash that our capital provision and other assets generate during a given period as well as cash from certain other fees and income. In particular, cash receipts represent the cash generated from capital provision and other assets, including cash proceeds from realized or concluded assets and any related hedging assets, and cash received from asset management income, services and/or other income, before any deployments into financing existing or new assets. Cash receipts are a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be considered in isolation from, as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with US GAAP. The most directly comparable measure calculated in accordance with US GAAP is proceeds from capital provision assets as set forth in our consolidated statements of cash flows. 45 Three months ended ($ in thousands) Q4 2025 Q3 2025 Q2 2025 Q1 2025 Q4 2024 Q3 2024 Q2 2024 Q1 2024 Q4 2023 Consolidated proceeds from capital provision assets $133,426 $159,138 $76,758 $371,054 $222,444 $395,943 $125,344 $247,561 $119,208 Less: Third-party interests (49,330) (56,905) (34,464) (126,150) (92,170) (91,185) (36,841) (120,036) (22,709) Total segments (Burford-only) proceeds from capital provision assets 84,096 102,233 42,294 244,904 130,274 304,758 88,503 127,525 96,499 Plus: Loss on financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss — — — — — (2,583) — — — Burford-only total proceeds from capital provision assets 84,096 102,233 42,294 244,904 130,274 302,175 88,503 127,525 96,499 Consolidated asset management income 878 2,547 1,349 1,538 1,686 3,147 1,644 1,863 1,875 Plus: Eliminated income from funds 14,365 (2,715) 5,763 12,299 13,671 7,963 9,843 4,810 20,655 Total segments (Burford-only) asset management income 15,243 (168) 7,112 13,837 15,357 11,110 11,487 6,673 22,530 Less: Non-cash adjustments(1) 481 8,298 (5,604) (6,732) (6,055) (9,389) (495) (2,197) (19,254) Burford-only proceeds from asset management income 15,724 8,130 1,508 7,105 9,302 1,721 10,992 4,476 3,276 Burford-only proceeds from marketable securities interest and dividends 5,566 6,593 4,031 4,678 5,418 4,567 5,093 5,476 2,672 Burford-only proceeds from other income 1,252 681 302 1,029 (1,395) 2,028 2,775 217 7,030 Burford-only proceeds from other items 6,818 7,274 4,333 5,707 4,023 6,595 7,868 5,693 9,702 Cash receipts 106,638 117,637 48,135 257,716 143,599 310,491 107,363 137,694 109,477 Years ended December 31, ($ in thousands) 2025 2024 2023 2022 2021 Consolidated proceeds from capital provision assets $740,376 $991,292 $559,362 $387,786 $396,415 Less: Third-party interests (266,849) (340,232) (117,296) (81,857) (139,826) Total segments (Burford-only) proceeds from capital provision assets 473,527 651,060 442,066 305,929 256,589 Plus: Loss on financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss — (2,583) — — — Burford-only proceeds from capital provision assets 473,527 648,477 442,066 305,929 256,589 Consolidated asset management income 6,312 8,340 7,642 9,116 14,396 Plus: Eliminated income from funds 29,712 36,287 56,070 46,964 14,349 Total segments (Burford-only) asset management income 36,024 44,627 63,712 56,080 28,745 Less: Non-cash adjustments(1) (3,557) (18,136) (31,391) (41,321) (10,246) Burford-only proceeds from asset management income 32,467 26,491 32,321 14,759 18,499 Burford-only proceeds from marketable securities interest and dividends 20,868 20,554 6,297 3,585 2,625 Burford-only proceeds from other income 3,264 3,625 8,525 3,713 3,753 Burford-only proceeds from other items 24,132 24,179 14,822 7,298 6,378 Cash receipts 530,126 699,147 489,209 327,986 281,466

Advantage Fund Burford Advantage Master Fund LP, a private fund focused on pre-settlement litigation strategies where litigation risk remains, but where the overall risk return profile is generally lower than assets funded directly by our balance sheet. Investors in the Advantage Fund include third parties as well as Burford's balance sheet. Assets held by the Advantage Fund are recorded as capital provision assets. Asset Management and Other Services segment One of our two reportable segments. Asset Management and Other Services includes the management of legal finance assets on behalf of third-party investors through private funds and provides other services to the legal industry. BOF-C Burford Opportunity Fund C LP, a private fund through which a sovereign wealth fund invests in pre-settlement legal finance matters under the sovereign wealth fund arrangement. Burford-only (non-GAAP) A basis of presentation that refers to assets, liabilities and activities that pertain only to Burford on a proprietary basis, excluding any third-party interests and the portions of jointly owned entities owned by others. Capital provision assets Financial instruments that relate to the provision of capital in connection with legal finance. Cash receipts Cash receipts provide a measure of the cash that our capital provision and other assets generate during a given period as well as cash from certain other fees and income. In particular, cash receipts represent the cash generated from capital provision and other assets, including cash proceeds from realized or concluded assets and any related hedging assets, and cash received from asset management income, services and/or other income, before any deployments into financing existing or new assets. Commitment A commitment is the amount of financing we agree to provide for a legal finance asset. Commitments can be definitive (requiring us to provide financing on a schedule or, more often, when certain expenses are incurred) or discretionary (allowing us to provide financing after reviewing and approving a future matter). Commitments for which we have not yet provided financing are unfunded commitments. Concluded and partially concluded assets A legal finance asset is "concluded" for our purposes when there is no longer any litigation risk remaining. We use the term to encompass (i) entirely concluded legal finance assets where we have received all proceeds to which we are entitled (net of any entirely concluded losses), (ii) partially concluded legal finance assets where we have received some proceeds (for example, from a settlement with one party in a multi-party case) but where the case is continuing with the possibility of receiving additional proceeds and (iii) legal finance assets where the underlying litigation has been resolved and there is a promise to pay proceeds in the future (for example, in a settlement that is to be paid over time). Consolidated funds Certain of our private funds in which, because of our investment in and/or control of such private funds, we are required under the generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("US GAAP") to consolidate the minority limited partner's interests in such private funds and include the full financial results of such private funds within our consolidated financial statements. As of the date of this Presentation, BOF-C and the Advantage Fund are consolidated funds. Definitive commitments Commitments where we are contractually obligated to advance incremental capital and failure to do so would typically result in adverse contractual consequences (such as a dilution in our returns or the loss of our deployed capital in a case). Deployment Financing provided for an asset or other additions on consolidation, which add to our deployed cost in such asset. Glossary 58

Deployed cost Deployed cost is the amount of financing we have provided for an asset at the applicable point in time. For purposes of calculating returns, we must consider how to allocate the costs associated with an asset in the event of a partial conclusion. Our approach to cost allocation depends on the type of asset: When single case assets have partial resolutions along the way without the entire case being resolved, most commonly because one party settles and the remaining part(y)/(ies) continue to litigate, we report the partial resolution when agreed as a partial realization and allocate a portion of the deployed cost to the partial resolution depending on the significance of the settling party to the overall claim. In portfolio assets when a case (or part of a case) resolves or generates cash proceeds, we report the partial resolution when agreed as a partial realization and allocate a portion of the deployed cost to the resolution. The allocation depends on the structure of the individual portfolio arrangement and the significance of the resolution to the overall portfolio, but it is in essence a method that mimics the way an investor would allocate cost basis across a portfolio of security purchases. Discretionary commitments Commitments where we are not contractually obligated to advance capital and generally would not suffer adverse financial consequences from not doing so. Group-wide A basis of presentation that refers to the totality of assets managed by us, which includes assets financed by our balance sheet through our Principal Finance segment and assets financed by third-party capital through our Asset Management and Other Services segment. Internal rate of return (IRR) Internal rate of return ("IRR") is a discount rate that makes the net present value of a series of cash flows equal to zero and is expressed as a percentage figure. We compute IRR on concluded (including partially concluded) legal finance assets by treating that entire portfolio (or, when noted, a subset thereof) as one undifferentiated pool of capital and measuring actual and, if necessary, estimated inflows and outflows from that pool, allocating costs appropriately. IRRs do not include unrealized gains or losses. Monetization The acceleration of a portion of the expected value of a litigation or arbitration matter prior to resolution of such matter, which permits a client to convert an intangible claim or award into tangible cash on a non-recourse basis. Portfolio The sum of the fair value of capital provision assets and the undrawn commitments. Principal Finance segment One of our two reportable segments. Principal Finance includes the allocation of capital to legal finance assets from our balance sheet, primarily as capital provision assets, and in limited scope through interests in private funds managed by Burford. Realization A legal finance asset is realized when the asset is concluded (i.e., when litigation risk has been resolved). A realization will result in us receiving cash or, occasionally, non-cash assets, or recognizing a due from settlement receivable, reflecting what we are owed on the asset. Realized gain or loss Reflects the total amount of gain or loss, relative to cost, generated by a legal finance asset when it is realized, calculated as realized proceeds less deployed cost, without regard for any previously recognized fair value adjustment. Return on invested capital (ROIC) Return on invested capital ("ROIC") from a concluded asset is the absolute amount of realizations from such asset in excess of the amount of expenditure incurred in financing such asset divided by the amount of expenditure incurred, expressed as a percentage figure. ROIC is a measure of our ability to generate absolute returns on our assets. Some industry participants express returns on a multiple of invested capital ("MOIC") instead of a ROIC basis. MOIC includes the return of capital and, therefore, is 1x higher than ROIC. In other words, 70% ROIC is the same as 1.70x MOIC. Glossary (continued) 59

Glossary (continued) 60 Total segments Refers to the sum of our two reportable segments, (i) Principal Finance and (ii) Asset Management and Other Services, and is presented on a Burford-only basis. Unrealized gain or loss Represents the fair value of our legal finance assets over or under their deployed cost, as determined in accordance with the requirements of the applicable US GAAP standards, for the relevant financial reporting period (consolidated statements of operations) or cumulatively (consolidated statements of financial condition). Vintage Refers to the calendar year in which a legal finance commitment is initially made. YPF-related assets Refers to our Petersen and Eton Park legal finance assets, which are two claims relating to the Republic of Argentina's nationalization of YPF S.A., the Argentine energy company.
