First Quarter 2026 Financial Results May 8, 2026 Burford Capital This presentation is for the use of Burford’s public shareholders and is not an offering of any Burford private fund.

Notice and disclaimer This presentation (this “Presentation”) provides certain information to facilitate review and understanding of the business, financial condition and results of operations of Burford Capital Limited (together with its subsidiaries, the “Company”, “Burford”, “we”, “our” or “us”) as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and does not purport to be a complete description of the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations. 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. The financial condition and results of operations as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2026. 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. All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to the Company 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 Presentation and, except as required by applicable law, the Company 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 Presentation includes certain data, such as modeled realizations and modeled ROIC, based on calculations derived from the Company’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 the Company’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 the Company’s probabilistic model contained in this Presentation is for informational purposes only and is not intended to be a profit forecast or be relied upon as a guide to future performance.

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”) 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 and (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. 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 1Q26 Financial Results “Burford has a multi-billion-dollar portfolio of litigation assets delivering substantial cash returns and the market- leading origination engine. Burford’s business is robust. We have ample liquidity, with more than $700 million of cash on hand, and have sight of around $280 million1 in cash so far this year from the portfolio. While the YPF loss was disappointing and caused a very large non-cash charge to our quarterly earnings, there is no cash impact from that loss. Indeed, if YPF never pays another cent, we will still have generated $236 million in cash proceeds and more than $100 million in profit from the case – and we are optimistic about a positive arbitration outcome.” Christopher Bogart Chief Executive Officer Conference Call Burford will hold a conference call for investors and analysts at 8.00am EDT / 1.00pm BST on Friday, May 8, 2026.

Key messages 8 We will continue to pursue a recovery for claimants from the YPF-related assets and we believe these assets retain meaningful option value to Burford, but a substantial write-down following the appeal ruling is the dominant driver of 1Q26 results 1 2 3 4 5 The current portfolio is positioned for higher levels of cash generation in the coming years Burford has a powerful core business model driven by a large and diversified existing portfolio and market-leading origination engine Liquidity is healthy and strong cash generation positions us to operate normally at these higher levels of leverage Our growth ambitions to double the portfolio base by 2030 are unchanged, and we believe we can achieve this as we reduce leverage over time

Summary update on YPF-related assets 9 Next steps in US Courts • En banc petition to be filed with Second Circuit Court of Appeals later today • If the en banc petition is denied, the plaintiffs will likely seek certiorari (leave to appeal) from the US Supreme Court • While we and many legal observers believe the Second Circuit’s decision was problematic on several levels, the probability of further relief in the US courts is low as a statistical matter Arbitration • The plaintiffs intend to bring claims under the Spain/Argentina bilateral investment treaty (as to Petersen) and under the US/Argentina bilateral investment treaty (as to Eton Park) • Arbitration is a multi-year process (average International Centre for Settlement of Investment Disputes case takes 4.4 years), but is entirely capable of reaching the same outcome as the US trial court; 86% of the 51 concluded investor-state arbitration claims brought against Argentina have been resolved in favor of the investor (including Burford’s last Argentina success), and 97% of all ICSID awards obtain satisfaction • Arbitration is typically a confidential process and, unless the tribunal proceeds differently, it is likely that filings and other arbitral papers will not be publicly available and that Burford will not be able to report or comment on the status of the arbitration while it is ongoing Business Update NOTE: See appendix for further detail on next steps in US courts and arbitration process.

Summary update on YPF-related assets 10 Future financial statement impact & reporting • Given the low probability of further review in the US courts, the denial of further review would not cause a further negative valuation change • As the arbitration proceeds, the YPF-related assets will be subject to further adjustments for deployed cost (which is expected to be in the usual range for a complex case) and modest passage of time valuation increases as is the case with all of Burford’s litigation finance assets; in 2025, the passage of time adjustment across the portfolio was approximately 7% • Arbitration does not generally provide many milestone events during the course of a case that would cause a more substantial valuation change, and we thus do not expect to see any material adjustment of the fair value of the YPF-related assets for some time – If bifurcation is sought in arbitration (a proposal that the jurisdictional aspects of the case be heard and decided first, before proceeding to the merits) and the tribunal permits bifurcation and then issues a ruling in the claimants’ favor, that would generally be a positive event – Otherwise, arbitration typically does not generate a milestone event until the final award is issued • Given the much-reduced value of the YPF-related assets, we no longer intend to provide YPF-specific financial information unless YPF-related assets again become individually financially material, nor will we continue to provide financial information about Burford’s business on an ex-YPF basis other than as needed to understand historical financial information Business Update Impact on 1Q26 results • Burford has applied its valuation policy to the YPF-related assets in two respects: − First, we have written the asset down substantially reflecting the loss on appeal as a negative milestone − Second, we have updated our valuation model to take account of the lengthened duration of the arbitration proceedings • Revised fair value for the YPF-related assets is $150 million on a consolidated basis (which includes the fair value of third-party interests) and $93 million on a Burford-only basis as of March 31, 2026 • Fair value adjustment results in a net impact of $(1,476) million to pre-tax net income on a Burford-only basis in 1Q26

The inherent volatility and unpredictability of legal finance assets precludes forecasting and limits the predictive nature of our internal models. The inherent nature of probabilistic modeling is that actual results will differ from the modeled results, and such differences could be material.

Our business operations are funded by highly diversified cash flows with no dependence on the YPF-related assets 201) Cash operating costs reflect salaries and benefits, annual incentive compensation, general and administrative expenses and finance costs as shown in the Burford-only income statement, plus the cash payments for long-term incentive compensation.

Current leverage is manageable and we intend to de-lever over time while continuing to pursue growth 21 • Our prior leverage threshold of 1.25x reflected the fact that 40+% of our assets were concentrated in one single, high-risk matter, the YPF-related assets • With a more diversified denominator in the debt/equity ratio, the portfolio is easily capable of sustaining higher levels of leverage, as reflected in our 2.0x incurrence test • While we are above that level today and do intend to de-lever over time, we remain comfortable relying on leverage as a significant element in our capital structure • We have long-dated, laddered maturities that extend well beyond the average life of our assets and we have ample liquidity to meet our near-term obligations • We also have substantial flexibility to manage cash outflows – for example, we can calibrate new investment activity based on our liquidity position at any given time Business Update

What are the capital allocation priorities looking forward? 22 • Continue to scale the portfolio through funding of existing commitments and underwriting attractive new business – We can reduce leverage ratios through both numerator (debt paydown) and denominator (equity growth) – Growth ambitions are unchanged assuming sufficient levels of realizations to fund new deployments without the need for incremental debt • Strategically reduce debt levels over time – Open market purchases when prudent – Call provisions on existing debt maturities • Dividends and share repurchases both consume flexibility provided by our debt arrangements – Repurposing $27 million of cash allocated annually to the dividend to debt reduction would reduce leverage ratios by approximately ~0.4x over the next 2.5 years – Our 2025 second half dividend will be paid on June 12, 2026 subject to AGM approval, and we will consider appropriate action with respect to the 2026 interim dividend later this year • We can aggressively manage operating expenses – Some early retirements will also permit management progression of strong bench of talent Business Update

Our 2025 Investor Day targets notably excluded the YPF-related assets…and our growth ambitions remain the same 23 • Our goal to double the portfolio base by the end of 2030 remains fully intact, and is achievable with a rate of growth well within our historical experience • We believe growth is achievable without requiring incremental debt funding, given expectations on cash generation from the current portfolio • We aim to generate a long-term return on equity around 20% Business Update 1,603 1,740 774 1,108 2,377 2,848 2024 2025 2026 2027 2028 2029 2030 Deployed cost Undrawn definitive commitments 2x ~4,750 Portfolio base Principal Finance – Deployed cost plus undrawn definitive commitments (ex-YPF related assets) as of year end ($ in millions) Doubling the portfolio base over 6 years equates to a ~12% CAGR

Appendix

YPF-related assets: Next steps in US courts 48 • En banc petition to be filed by Friday, May 8 – En banc is a request that all 13 of the active judges on the Second Circuit hear the case instead of just having it decided by a three-judge panel – En banc consideration is “not favored” under the rules and rarely granted – The Second Circuit often acts quickly on such petitions without seeking a response from the other party • Supreme Court – If the en banc petition is denied, the plaintiffs will likely seek certiorari (leave to appeal) from the US Supreme Court – The certiorari petition is due 90 days after the en banc decision, with a possible extension of up to 60 days – Argentina’s response would be due 30 days after the petition is docketed, also with an extension possible – Once the response is filed, there is a 14-day waiting period (during which the plaintiffs could file a reply) before the petition can be distributed to the justices for a decision – Most petitions are denied; the other possibilities are an immediate grant or for the court to call for the views of the US Solicitor General about whether the case should be heard – The Supreme Court typically decides petitions rapidly once circulated, although it does not decide them during the summer and calls for the Solicitor General’s views also introduce delays • While we and many legal observers believe the Second Circuit’s decision was problematic on a number of levels, the probability of further relief in the US courts is low as a statistical matter

YPF-related assets: International arbitration 49 • The plaintiffs have provided notice to Argentina of their intention to bring claims under the Spain/Argentina bilateral investment treaty (as to Petersen) and under the US/Argentina bilateral investment treaty (as to Eton Park) • While there is the potential for some negotiation among the parties, the Petersen claim will likely proceed at ICSID under the ICSID Convention and the Eton Park claim will likely proceed under the UNCITRAL Arbitration Rules • The average ICSID case takes 4.4 years, but there are meaningful variations in timing depending on many different factors – That timeframe does not include annulment (essentially, a very limited form of an appeal) which is rarely granted although it elongates the process somewhat (ICSID reports that it takes, on average, 26 months) – Once there is a final award, it is enforceable under the Washington Convention in many countries without further substantive review, and ICSID has reported that “satisfaction was obtained in 97% of Damages Awards” • An award under the UNCITRAL Arbitration Rules, on the other hand, is subject to the arbitration law of the seat of arbitration and the supervisory jurisdiction of the courts there – The seat of arbitration here is not yet determined but is typically either agreed by the parties or decided by the arbitrators – Although the procedure and grounds on which a non-ICSID award may be set aside vary across jurisdictions, it is widely accepted that national courts should not review the merits of the award – A non-ICSID award, like commercial arbitration awards, is enforced not through the ICSID Convention, but the New York Convention • The bottom line is that arbitration is a multi-year process but is entirely capable of reaching the same outcome as the US trial court, and arbitral tribunals typically also award interest (although the rate applied is determined individually by the tribunal as opposed to the kind of statutory interest regime in most courts) Sources: ICSID, Updated Background Paper on Annulment, March 11, 2024; ICSID, Background Paper on Compliance with and Enforcement of ICSID Awards, June 17, 2024; BIICL-Allen & Overy, 2021 Empirical Study: Costs, Damages and Duration in Investor-State Arbitration, June 2021.

YPF-related assets: International arbitration (continued) 50 • The cost of these investor-state arbitration proceedings is difficult to estimate at the outset given the number of variables involved (for example, whether the tribunals will re-use disclosure and expert material from the US case or require that work to be re-done) and can vary widely; as a frame of reference, a 2021 Allen & Overy study found that the average cost for claimants of an investment treaty case is $6.4 million • Arbitration is typically a confidential process and, subject to the tribunal proceeding differently, it is likely that filings and other arbitral papers will not be publicly available and that Burford will not be able to report or comment on the status or progress of the arbitration – ICSID does list filings and tribunal actions on its website without providing their content so the public does have some superficial insight into the progress of a case; an UNCITRAL arbitration, however, may or may not be administered by an arbitral institution, and in any event, does not provide for as much transparency • Investment treaty arbitration applies public international law, not private or domestic law, and thus these are different cases, not do- overs of the US case in a different forum, and all of the usual caveats we routinely issue about litigation risk apply with full force to arbitration proceedings • We believe these are strong claims under the relevant treaties but investors should not assume that because we won a judgment in the US trial court we will necessarily achieve the same or a similar result in arbitration Sources: ICSID, Updated Background Paper on Annulment, March 11, 2024; ICSID, Background Paper on Compliance with and Enforcement of ICSID Awards, June 17, 2024; BIICL-Allen & Overy, 2021 Empirical Study: Costs, Damages and Duration in Investor-State Arbitration, June 2021.

Other Reconciliations

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. 52 Three months ended ($ in thousands) Q1 2026 Q4 2025 Q3 2025 Q2 2025 Q1 2025 Q4 2024 Q3 2024 Q2 2024 Q1 2024 Consolidated proceeds from capital provision assets $ 86,349 $ 133,426 $ 159,138 $ 76,758 $ 371,054 $ 222,444 $ 395,943 $ 125,344 $ 247,561 Less: Third-party interests (5,530) (49,330) (56,905) (34,464) (126,150) (92,170) (91,185) (36,841) (120,036) Total segments (Burford-only) proceeds from capital provision assets 80,819 84,096 102,233 42,294 244,904 130,274 304,758 88,503 127,525 Plus: Loss on financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss — — — — — — (2,583) — — Burford-only total proceeds from capital provision assets 80,819 84,096 102,233 42,294 244,904 130,274 302,175 88,503 127,525 Consolidated asset management income 284 878 2,547 1,349 1,538 1,686 3,147 1,644 1,863 Plus: Eliminated income from funds 4,998 14,365 (2,715) 5,763 12,299 13,671 7,963 9,843 4,810 Total segments (Burford-only) asset management income 5,282 15,243 (168) 7,112 13,837 15,357 11,110 11,487 6,673 Less: Non-cash adjustments(1) (3,798) 481 8,298 (5,604) (6,732) (6,055) (9,389) (495) (2,197) Burford-only proceeds from asset management income 1,484 15,724 8,130 1,508 7,105 9,302 1,721 10,992 4,476 Burford-only proceeds from marketable securities interest and dividends 6,292 5,566 6,593 4,031 4,678 5,418 4,567 5,093 5,476 Burford-only proceeds from other income 1,158 1,252 681 302 1,029 (1,395) 2,028 2,775 217 Burford-only proceeds from other items 7,450 6,818 7,274 4,333 5,707 4,023 6,595 7,868 5,693 Cash receipts 89,753 106,638 117,637 48,135 257,716 143,599 310,491 107,363 137,694 Years ended December 31, ($ in thousands) 2025 2024 2023 Consolidated proceeds from capital provision assets $ 740,376 $ 991,292 $ 559,362 Less: Third-party interests (266,849) (340,232) (117,296) Total segments (Burford-only) proceeds from capital provision assets 473,527 651,060 442,066 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 Consolidated asset management income 6,312 8,340 7,642 Plus: Eliminated income from funds 29,712 36,287 56,070 Total segments (Burford-only) asset management income 36,024 44,627 63,712 Less: Non-cash adjustments(1) (3,557) (18,136) (31,391) Burford-only proceeds from asset management income 32,467 26,491 32,321 Burford-only proceeds from marketable securities interest and dividends 20,868 20,554 6,297 Burford-only proceeds from other income 3,264 3,625 8,525 Burford-only proceeds from other items 24,132 24,179 14,822 Cash receipts 530,126 699,147 489,209

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 financed 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 segment manages 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 unaudited condensed 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 64

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 segment 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 us. 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) 65

Glossary (continued) 66 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 (unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations) or cumulatively (unaudited condensed 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.
