Ali Dibadj, Chief Executive Officer, stated:

"We are proud of the continued progress made this quarter, building on the progress of previous quarters. We are encouraged by consistently solid investment performance and positive net flows and believe it is another indication that our strategic plan is starting to bear fruit. The 37% year-over-year increase in adjusted diluted EPS and 570 basis point improvement in adjusted operating margin reflect robust operating leverage, and our healthy balance sheet and strong cash flow generation provides us the flexibility to continue to invest in the business—both organically and inorganically—as well as return cash to shareholders.

"We believe we are squarely on the path to delivering consistent results over the long term, and our results highlight areas of momentum in our business. While we are energized by the clear progress, we recognize there is more work to be done, and we remain focused on positioning Janus Henderson to deliver superior outcomes for our clients, employees, shareholders, and other stakeholders."

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

The Company presents its financial results in US$ and in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). However, JHG management evaluates the profitability of the Company 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.

SHARE REPURCHASE AND DIVIDEND

On July 31, 2024, the Board declared a second quarter dividend in respect of the three months ended June 30, 2024, of US$0.39 per share. Shareholders on the register on the record date of August 12, 2024, will be paid the dividend on August 28, 2024.

As part of the now completed US$150 million on-market share repurchase program approved by the Board in October 2023 and active US$150 million on-market share repurchase program approved by the Board in May 2024, JHG purchased approximately one million of its ordinary shares on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) in the second quarter, for a total outlay of approximately US$34 million.

AUM AND FLOWS (in US$ billions)

INVESTMENT PERFORMANCE

% of AUM outperforming benchmark (as of June 30, 2024)

Outperformance is measured based on composite performance gross of fees versus 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 versus zero for absolute return strategies, (2) fund net of fees versus primary index, or (3) fund net of fees versus 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. Excluded assets represent 3% of AUM. Capabilities defined by Janus Henderson.

% of mutual fund AUM in top 2 Morningstar quartiles (as of June 30, 2024)

Includes Janus Investment Fund, Janus Aspen Series and Clayton Street Trust (U.S. 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 March 31, 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 June 30, 2024, 62%, 60%, 57%, and 64% of the 184, 168, 159, and 143 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 U.S. 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.

Funds not ranked by Morningstar are excluded from the analysis. Capabilities defined by Janus Henderson. © 2024 Morningstar, Inc. All Rights Reserved.
