Litigation Capital Management Ltd, down 23% at 30.20p, 12-month range 23.33p-119.56p. The dispute financing solutions-focused asset manager ends its investment in a class action brought on behalf of commercial fishermen against Gladstone Ports Corp. The litigation related to losses alleged to have resulted from contamination of the Gladstone harbour from a dredge spill in 2011-12. "This decision to terminate this investment comes as a result of LCM's review of its portfolio of investments following recent adverse case outcomes with a focus on balance sheet discipline and efficient deployment of capital," LCM says. LCM says the investment, which will now be written off, was held on its balance sheet at an amount of GBP15.0 million. "The review of this investment has identified two avenues for potential recovery of a material part of LCM's capital invested. Firstly, we believe that the firm of solicitors, who initially acted for the claimants in this claim, overcharged for legal services supplied to the claimants and we have commenced a costs assessment seeking reimbursement of a portion of the legal costs paid by LCM. Secondly, we are investigating a claim against those same solicitors for breach of contract and negligence in association with the legal services provided for the claim," it continues. In addition, it reports a formal strategic review. It adds: "To support this effort, LCM has appointed Luminis Partners, a leading financial and corporate advisory firm, to provide independent expertise and guide the review."
