Janus Henderson’s investment insights, client-service, strong balance sheet, and stable foundation are keys to delivering superior financial outcomes for our clients. In this environment, we continue to control what we can control, looking keenly at expenses, increasing client outreach, and more broadly sharing our market perspectives.

“The work being done to reenergise the Company’s future strategy is well underway, and we believe the cost efficiencies announced today will provide the ‘Fuel for Growth’ to allow investment in the business, which we believe will improve our growth trajectory over time.”

SUMMARY OF FINANCIAL RESULTS (unaudited) (in US$ millions, except per share data or as noted)

The Group presents its financial results in US$ and in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (‘US GAAP’ or ‘GAAP’). However, JHG management evaluates the profitability of the Group and its ongoing operations using additional non-GAAP financial measures. Management uses these performance measures to evaluate the business, and adjusted values are consistent with internal management reporting. See ‘Reconciliation of non-GAAP financial information’ below for additional information.

DIVIDEND AND SHARE BUYBACK

On 26 October 2022, the Board declared a third quarter dividend in respect of the three months ended 30 September 2022 of US$0.39 per share. Shareholders on the register on the record date of 7 November 2022 will be paid the dividend on 23 November 2022.

The Group did not purchase any of its ordinary shares on the New York Stock Exchange (‘NYSE’) or its CHESS Depositary Interests (‘CDIs’) on the Australian Securities Exchange (‘ASX’) in the third quarter as part of the US$200 million on-market buyback programme approved by the Board in May 2022.

AUM AND FLOWS (in US$ billions)

FX reflects movement in AUM resulting from changes in foreign currency rates as non-US$ denominated AUM is translated into US$. Redemptions include impact of client switches.

INVESTMENT PERFORMANCE

Outperformance is measured based on composite performance gross of fees vs primary benchmark, except where a strategy has no benchmark index or corresponding composite in which case the most relevant metric is used: (1) composite gross of fees vs zero for absolute return strategies, (2) fund net of fees vs primary index, or (3) fund net of fees vs Morningstar peer group average or median. Non-discretionary and separately managed account assets are included with a corresponding composite where applicable.

Cash management vehicles, ETF-enhanced beta strategies, Managed CDOs, Private Equity funds, and custom non-discretionary accounts with no corresponding composite are excluded from the analysis. Performance across all time periods excludes Intech, the sale of which was completed 31 March 2022. Excluded assets represent 5% of AUM as at 30 September 2022. Capabilities defined by Janus Henderson.

Includes Janus Investment Fund, Janus Aspen Series and Clayton Street Trust (US Trusts), Janus Henderson Capital Funds (Dublin based), Dublin and UK OEIC and Investment Trusts, Luxembourg SICAVs, and Australian Managed Investment Schemes. Performance across all time periods excludes Intech, the sale of which was completed 31 March 2022. The top two Morningstar quartiles represent funds in the top half of their category based on total return. For the 1-, 3-, 5-, and 10-year periods ending 30 September 2022, 54%, 53%, 60%, and 68% of the 189, 179, 174, and 152 total mutual funds, respectively, were in the top 2 Morningstar quartiles.

Analysis based on ‘primary’ share class (Class I Shares, Institutional Shares or share class with longest history for US Trusts; Class A Shares or share class with longest history for Dublin based; primary share class as defined by Morningstar for other funds). Performance may vary by share class. Rankings may be based, in part, on the performance of a predecessor fund or share class and are calculated by Morningstar using a methodology that differs from that used by Janus Henderson. Methodology differences may have a material effect on the return and therefore the ranking. When an expense waiver is in effect, it may have a material effect on the total return, and therefore the ranking for the period.

ETFs and funds not ranked by Morningstar are excluded from the analysis. Capabilities defined by Janus Henderson. © 2022 Morningstar, Inc. All Rights Reserved.
