Due to the nature of litigation it is not possible to predict the timing of the completion of a case with accuracy. Therefore, it is not possible to provide a forecast for the Group’s Litigation Funding Division. The Group continues to expect that at least one case will conclude in FY2017.
Philip Kapp, founder and Executive Chairman noted that since JustKapital acquired the business of Macquarie Medico Legal in January 2016, JustKapital Finance has diversified its product offering from funding medical reports into general disbursements funding and short term finance for the legal industry. Revenue is on track to increase by 53% (year on year). In addition, the gross disbursement funding receivables has almost doubled to $30 million.
