The information provided in this announcement is for informational purposes only. Past performance is not indicative of future results.

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.

前瞻性声明 本新闻稿中包括的关于未来表现和结果、预期、规划、策略、重点、承诺和其他声明(包括与我们社会、环境和其他可持续性目标有关的声明)的非历史事实的前瞻性声明,是根据美国联邦证券法的定义而作出的前瞻性声明。本新闻稿中关于我们环境和其他可持续性计划和目标的前瞻性声明以及其他声明并不意味着这些声明对于投资者、我们的业务、运营结果、财务状况、前景或策略、对我们在可持续发展事项上的影响或其他当事方来说均是重要的,或者必须披露在我们向证券交易委员会(“SEC”)或其他监管机构的备案中。此外,历史、现有及未来涉及社会、环境和可持续性的相关声明可能是基于仍在发展的衡量进展的标准、不断演变的内部控制和流程以及假设,在将来可能会发生变化。前瞻性声明基于当前的信仰、期望和假设,并受到可能导致实际结果与前瞻性声明有实质性差异的重大风险、不确定性和情况变化的影响。
本公告包含美国1934年修正案第21E节所规定的"前瞻性声明",涉及有关未来事件的假设、期望、预测、意图和信念。这些声明旨在成为"前瞻性声明"。在某些情况下,意图为"前瞻性声明"的预测、未来时或前瞻性语言,如"目标"、"预计"、"相信"、"继续"、"可能"、"计划"、"潜在"、"预测"、"应该"或"将"或该等术语的否定或其他可比的术语,旨在确定前瞻性声明,但不是识别这些声明的唯一手段。此外,Burford及其代表可能不时发表其他口头或书面的前瞻性声明,包括在其向Burford证券持有人提供的定期报告中,以及Burford与世界各地的公司和律师事务所一起工作的其他信息。按其性质,前瞻性声明涉及已知风险、不确定性和其他因素,因为它们与事件相关并且取决于可能发生或不可能发生的情况。Burford提醒前瞻性声明不能保证未来的业绩,并基于众多的假设、期望、预测、意图和信念,并且与Burford实际的运营业绩(包括其财务状况和流动性)以及其所处行业的发展可能有所不同,这可能较过去更为负面,与其在本公告中所作的或建议的前瞻性声明不同。导致Burford的实际结果与其期望的结果有所不同的重要因素包括,在Burford于2024年3月28日向美国证券交易委员会提交的20-F表的"风险因素"下讨论的其他报告或文件中。此外,即使Burford的运营业绩(包括财务状况和流动性)以及其所处行业的发展符合本公告中所作的前瞻性声明,也不能确保在随后的期间内的运营业绩或发展结果具有指示性。

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.

Burford未承诺任何法定义务更新或修订本公告中所包含的前瞻性声明,无论是因为新信息、未来事件还是其他原因。
