Portfolio update

 

Juridica, a leading provider of strategic capital to both businesses and the legal markets for corporate claims, is pleased to announce a favourable and complete resolution of Case 6509-A, which involved a significant judgment obtained in an action for breach of contract, fraud, and related claims in a US federal court. The resolution occurred following the confirmation by the appeals court of the favourable jury verdict achieved at the district court level.

 

The case will generate US$4.5 million for the Company delivering an internal rate of return of 54% on an initial investment of US$2.4 million. The case completed within 17 months of the 23 December 2009 investment date.

 

 

Richard W. Fields, Chairman and Chief Executive of Juridica Capital Management, the Investment Manager, said: "We are delighted to have maintained our excellent investment record for fully completed cases and delivered another positive result for shareholders. Looking to the future, as outlined in our recent results statement, we expect that a further three to six cases have the possibility of completing in the next six to 18 months. We are optimistic that the portfolio will continue to deliver high quality returns."
