Burford Capital (BUR): Arbitration judgement shows value of patience

On Friday a positive judgement was received in one of Burford’s long standing arbitration cases. In the claim by Teinver S.A. and others against Argentina, an award of $324m plus interest was made. While there are several factors to be resolved, Burford estimate their share of the award at around $140m, subject to an ongoing compound interest calculation. This compares with a current investment of $13m and an approximated balance sheet value of $30m. Although the company has yet to discuss with their auditors, they note that booked gain will not approach the full $110m difference in their year end financials.
