Resolution of Investment

Litigation Capital Management Limited (AIM:LIT), an alternative asset manager specialising in dispute financing solutions internationally, announces a successful resolution on an investment forming part of LCM's Fund I portfolio of investments.

Successful Award in Arbitration Investment

LCM's investment and funding related to a dispute in London Court of International Arbitration proceedings. LCM provided funding and support to the claimant in those proceedings, which recently received an award in its favour. The subject matter, findings and funding terms remain subject to confidentiality.

Initially, the investment was expected to complete within a short time frame from the commencement of funding, however, the matter was delayed due to a number of external factors. This protraction enhanced the returns to LCM and Fund I investors, details of which are highlighted in the table below:

Patrick Moloney, CEO of LCM, commented: "The Resolution of this investment demonstrates two important features of LCM's business and its investment strategy. First, it validates the skillset of our investment managers in undertaking a rigorous due diligence exercise and accurately predicting the final outcome of a large and complex commercial dispute resolved through arbitration. Secondly, it is an example of an investment which we had originally expected to resolve in a prior financial period. The return metrics generated by this investment clearly demonstrate how returns are enhanced notwithstanding a delayed resolution. Not only were we extremely happy with the outstanding investment returns, but also LCM's funded party was grateful for the financial support beyond the originally contemplated investment period. "
