Settlement in Australian class action

Litigation Capital Management Limited (AIM:LIT), a leading international alternative asset manager of disputes financing solutions, announces that a settlement has been reached in an Australian class action funded by the Company.

The investment in this class action forms part of LCM's Direct Investment Portfolio and was 100% funded from balance sheet capital.

LCM expects to receive revenue of approximately $AUD 14million. That amount includes capital invested of approximately AUD $8.25 million together with an expected gross profit of approximately $AUD 5.75million. The Company's final revenue and profit figures are subject to change pending final distribution of settlement monies and cash is expected to be received in the next 30 days.

The terms of the settlement are confidential.

Patrick Moloney, CEO of LCM, said:

"We are pleased to see a positive resolution to this investment.  It forms part of our mature portfolio of dispute investments, which have experienced some delays as a consequence of Covid.  Nonetheless, we are pleased it provided strong returns in the circumstances."
