This is why Burford Capital Limited (BUR) is Cheap Penny Stock to Buy and not a Scam?

Burford Capital Limited (NYSE:BUR) is one of the best cheap penny stocks to buy that aren’t scams. On March 30, BofA Securities reiterated Burford Capital Limited (NYSE:BUR) as a Buy, trimming the price target to $5.61 from $12.10.

The price target cut is in response to the research firm using a three-year rolling Cash Return on Tangible Equity of 20% to derive the valuation. It also moved the company’s income rating to 9 from 7, reflecting the lack of a cash dividend. BofA also touted Burford Capital’s cash generation ability as healthy.

In the last two years, Burford Capital has produced more than $1.2 billion in cash proceeds and is on course to generate over $5 billion over time. According to Christopher Bogart, Chief Executive Officer, the core business is healthy, growing well, and well-positioned to produce high asset returns. Given the strong cash position and expected cash proceeds, the company is well-positioned for continued growth and debt rationalization despite the YPF setback.

Burford Capital Limited (NYSE:BUR) is the world’s leading provider of legal finance and risk management, offering capital and expertise to law firms and Fortune 500 companies.
