NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

Note 1 — Basis of Presentation

Basis of Presentation

In the opinion of management of Janus Henderson Group plc (“JHG,” “the Company,” “we,” “us,” “our” and similar terms), the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all normal recurring adjustments necessary to fairly state our financial position, results of operations and cash flows in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Such financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP are not required for interim reporting purposes and have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual consolidated financial statements and notes presented in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. Events subsequent to the balance sheet date have been evaluated for inclusion in the accompanying financial statements through the issuance date.

Note 2 — Dispositions

On February 3, 2022, we announced the strategic decision to sell our 97%-owned Quantitative Equities subsidiary, Intech Investment Management LLC (“Intech”), to a consortium composed of Intech management and certain Intech non-executive directors (“Management Buyout”). On March 31, 2022, the Management Buyout closed, and we recognized a $9.1 million loss on disposal of Intech. The loss is recognized in other non-operating income (expense), net in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. Consideration received as part of the Management Buyout included cash proceeds of $14.9 million; contingent consideration of up to $17.5 million, which is based on future Intech revenue; and an option agreement that provides JHG the option to purchase a certain equity stake in Intech at a predetermined price on or before the seventh anniversary of the Management Buyout.

The terms of the transaction also included a $20.0 million seven-year term note subject to two tranches. Intech borrowed the first tranche of $10.0 million at closing while borrowings under the second tranche occurred after closing. As of September 30, 2023, the remainder of the second tranche is not available to Intech. The outstanding principal on the note receivable was $15.9 million as of September 30, 2023, which includes $0.9 million of accrued interest. The first tranche of the term note pays interest at 5.5%, while the second tranche pays interest at 6.0%.

As of September 30, 2023, we established an allowance for the majority of the term note balance, and the fair value of the contingent consideration and option agreement is nil.

Consolidated Variable Interest Entities

Our consolidated variable interest entities (“VIEs”) as of September 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022, include certain consolidated seeded investment products in which we have an investment and act as the investment manager.

Note 5 — Derivative Instruments

Derivative Instruments Used to Hedge Seeded Investment Products

We maintain an economic hedge program that uses derivative instruments to mitigate against market exposure of certain seeded investments by using index and commodity futures (“futures”), total return swaps and credit default swaps. Certain foreign currency exposures associated with our seeded investment products are also hedged by using foreign currency forward contracts and swaps.

We were party to the following derivative instruments as of September 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022 (in millions):

	*Notional value*
	*September 30, 2023*		*December 31, 2022*
Futures	$	1,095.7	$	196.8
Credit default swaps		106.7		115.1
Total return swaps		40.9		37.2
Foreign currency forward contracts and swaps		173.8		131.7

The derivative instruments are not designated as hedges for accounting purposes. Changes in fair value of the derivatives are recognized in investment gains (losses), net in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. The changes in fair value of the derivative instruments for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, are summarized as follows (in millions):

In addition to using derivative instruments to mitigate against market exposure of certain seeded investments, we also engage in short sales of securities to hedge seed investments. As of September 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022, the fair value of securities sold but not yet purchased was $1.5 million and $0.5 million, respectively. The cash received from the short sale and the obligation to repurchase the shares are classified in other current assets and in accounts payable and accrued liabilities in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, respectively. Fair value adjustments are recognized in investment gains (losses), net in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income.

Derivative Instruments Used in Consolidated Seeded Investment Products

Certain of our consolidated seeded investment products use derivative instruments to contribute to the achievement of defined investment objectives. These derivative instruments are classified within other current assets or in accounts payable and accrued liabilities in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Gains and losses on these derivative instruments are classified within investment gains (losses), net in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income.

Our consolidated seeded investment products were party to the following derivative instruments as of September 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022 (in millions):

Derivative Instruments — Foreign Currency Hedging Program

We maintain a foreign currency hedging program to take reasonable measures to minimize the income statement effects of foreign currency remeasurement of monetary balance sheet accounts. The program uses foreign currency forward contracts and swaps to achieve its objectives, and it is considered an economic hedge for accounting purposes.

The notional value of the foreign currency forward contracts and swaps as of September 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022, is summarized as follows (in millions):

	*Notional value*
	*September 30, 2023*		*December 31, 2022*

Level 1 Fair Value Measurements

Our Level 1 fair value measurements consist mostly of investments held by seeded investment products; investments in advised mutual funds; cash equivalents; and securities sold, not yet purchased with quoted market prices in active markets. The fair value level of consolidated investments held by seeded investment products is determined by the underlying securities of the product. The fair value level of unconsolidated investments held in seeded investment products is determined by the net asset value (“NAV”), which is considered a quoted price in an active market.

Level 2 Fair Value Measurements

Our Level 2 fair value measurements consist mostly of investments held by consolidated seeded investment products, derivative instruments and our long-term debt. The fair value level of consolidated investments held by seeded investment products is determined by the underlying securities of the product. The fair value level of our long-term debt is determined using recent trading activity, which is considered a Level 2 input. The fair value level of unconsolidated investments held in seeded investment products is determined by the NAV, which is considered a quoted price in an active market.

Level 3 Fair Value Measurements

Investments

As of September 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022, certain investments within consolidated VIEs were valued using significant unobservable inputs, resulting in Level 3 classification.

Deferred Bonuses

Deferred bonuses represent liabilities to employees over the vesting period that will be settled by investments in our products or cash. Upon vesting, employees receive the value of the investment product selected by the participant, adjusted for gains or losses attributable to the product. The significant unobservable inputs used to value the liabilities are investment designations and vesting periods.

Nonrecurring Fair Value Measurements

Nonrecurring Level 3 fair value measurements include goodwill and intangible assets. We measure the fair value of goodwill and intangible assets on initial recognition using discounted cash flow (“DCF”) analysis that requires assumptions regarding projected future earnings and discount rates. Because of the significance of the unobservable inputs in the fair value measurements of these assets, such measurements are classified as Level 3.

4.875% Senior Notes Due 2025

The 4.875% Senior Notes due 2025 (“2025 Senior Notes”) have a principal value of $300.0 million, pay interest at 4.875% semiannually on February 1 and August 1 of each year, and mature on August 1, 2025. The 2025 Senior Notes include unamortized debt premium, net at September 30, 2023, of $5.3 million, which will be amortized over the remaining life of the notes. The unamortized debt premium is recorded as a liability in long-term debt in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. JHG fully and unconditionally guarantees the obligations of Janus Henderson US (Holdings) Inc. in relation to the 2025 Senior Notes.

Credit Facility

On June 30, 2023, we entered into a new $200 million, unsecured, revolving credit facility (“Credit Facility”) and terminated our former Credit Facility as it was approaching its expiration date. The new Credit Facility includes an option for us to request an increase to our borrowing capacity under the Credit Facility of up to an additional $50.0 million. The new Credit Facility has a maturity date of June 30, 2028, with two one-year extension options that can be exercised at the discretion of JHG with the lender’s consent on the first and second anniversary of the date of the agreement. JHG and its subsidiaries may use the Credit Facility for general corporate purposes. The rate of interest for each interest period is the aggregate of the applicable margin, which is based on our long-term credit rating and the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) in relation to any loan in U.S. dollars (“USD”), the Sterling Overnight Index Average (“SONIA”) in relation to any loan in British pounds (“GBP”), the Euro Interbank Offered Rate (“EURIBOR”) in relation to any loan in euros (“EUR”) or the Bank Bill Swap Rate (“BBSW”) in relation to any loan in Australian dollars (“AUD”). We are also required to pay a quarterly commitment fee on any unused portion of the Credit Facility, which is based on our long-term credit rating. Under the Credit Facility, should our credit rating fall below a predefined threshold, our financing leverage ratio cannot exceed 3.00x EBITDA. At September 30, 2023, we were in compliance with all covenants, and there were no outstanding borrowings, under the Credit Facility.

Note 9 — Income Taxes

Our effective tax rates for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, were as follows:

	*Three months ended*						*Nine months ended*
	*September 30,*						*September 30,*
	*2023*			*2022*			*2023*			*2022*
Effective tax rate		13.2	%		19.6	%		19.3	%		33.0	%

The effective tax rates for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the same periods in 2022, were impacted by the change to our state tax rate. As a result, the U.S. deferred tax assets and liabilities were revalued from 23.9% to 23.5%, creating a non-cash deferred tax benefit of $8.8 million. In addition, the effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, was impacted by the change in noncontrolling interests.

As of September 30, 2023, we had $23.6 million of unrecognized tax benefits held for uncertain tax positions. We estimate that the existing liability for uncertain tax positions could decrease by up to $6.7 million within the next 12 months, without giving effect to changes in foreign currency translation.

Note 10 — Noncontrolling Interests

Consolidated seeded investment products	$	245.9	$	233.9

Consolidated Seeded Investment Products

Noncontrolling interests in consolidated seeded investment products are classified as redeemable noncontrolling interests when there is an obligation to repurchase units at the investor’s request.

Redeemable noncontrolling interests in consolidated seeded investment products may fluctuate from period to period and are impacted by changes in our relative ownership, changes in the amount of third-party investment in seeded products and volatility in the market value of the seeded products’ underlying securities. Third-party redemption of investments in any particular seeded product is redeemed from the respective product’s net assets and cannot be redeemed from the assets of our other seeded products or from our other assets.

The following table presents the movement in redeemable noncontrolling interests in consolidated seeded investment products for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 (in millions):

Litigation and Other Regulatory Matters

We are periodically involved in various legal proceedings and other regulatory matters.

Sandra Schissler v Janus Henderson US (Holdings) Inc., Janus Henderson Advisory Committee, and John and Jane Does 1-30

On September 9, 2022, a class action complaint, captioned Schissler v. Janus Henderson US (Holdings) Inc., et al., was filed in the United States District Court for the District of Colorado. Named as defendants are Janus Henderson US (Holdings) Inc. (“Janus US Holdings”) and the Advisory Committee to the Janus 401(k) and Employee Stock Ownership Plan (“Plan”). The complaint purports to be brought on behalf of a class consisting of participants and beneficiaries of the Plan that invested in Janus Henderson funds on or after September 9, 2016. On January 10, 2023, in response to the defendants’ motion to dismiss filed on November 23, 2022, an amended complaint was filed against the same defendants. The amended complaint names two additional plaintiffs, Karly Sissel and Derrick Hittson. As amended, the complaint alleges that for the period September 9, 2016, through September 9, 2022, among other things, the defendants breached fiduciary duties of loyalty and prudence by (i) selecting higher-cost Janus Henderson funds over less expensive investment options; (ii) retaining Janus Henderson funds despite their alleged underperformance; and (iii) failing to consider actively managed funds outside of Janus Henderson to add as investment options. The amended complaint also alleges that Janus US Holdings failed to monitor the Advisory Committee with respect to the foregoing. The amended complaint seeks various declaratory, equitable and monetary relief in unspecified amounts. On February 9, 2023, the defendants filed an amended motion to dismiss the amended complaint. On March 13, 2023, the plaintiffs filed an opposition to the amended motion to dismiss. The defendants filed their reply to the plaintiffs’ opposition on March 28, 2023. On September 7, 2023, a magistrate judge issued a report and recommendation, which recommended that the motion to dismiss be granted in part and denied in part. On September 21, 2023, the parties filed objections to the report and recommendation. Briefing on the parties’ objections concluded on October 12, 2023. A final ruling by the district court remains pending. Janus US Holdings believes the claims asserted in the amended complaint are without merit and intends to vigorously defend against these claims.

Forward-Looking Statements

Certain statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q not based on historical facts are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the federal securities laws, including the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, as amended, Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”), and Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“Securities Act”). Such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties that are difficult to predict and could cause our actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from those discussed. These include statements as to our future expectations, beliefs, plans, strategies, objectives, events, conditions, financial performance, prospects or future events.

Business Overview

We are an independent global asset manager, specializing in active investment across all major asset classes. We actively manage a broad range of investment products for institutional and retail investors across four capabilities: Equities, Fixed Income, Multi-Asset and Alternatives.

Table of Contents

Segment Considerations

We are a global asset manager and manage a range of investment products, operating across various product lines, distribution channels and geographic regions. However, information is reported to the chief operating decision-maker, our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”), on an aggregated basis. Strategic and financial management decisions are determined centrally by our CEO and, on this basis, we operate as a single-segment investment management business.

Revenue

Revenue primarily consists of management fees and performance fees. Management fees are generally based on a percentage of the market value of our assets under management (“AUM”) and are calculated using either the daily, month-end or quarter-end average asset balance in accordance with contractual agreements. Accordingly, fluctuations in the financial markets have a direct effect on our operating results. Additionally, our AUM may outperform or underperform the financial markets and, therefore, may fluctuate in varying degrees from that of the general market.

Performance fees are specified in certain fund and client contracts, and are based on investment performance either on an absolute basis or compared to an established index over a specified period of time. These fees are often subject to a hurdle rate. Performance fees are recognized at the end of the contractual period (typically monthly, quarterly or annually) if the stated performance criteria are achieved. Certain fund and client contracts allow for negative performance fees where there is underperformance against the relevant index.

Third QUARTER 2023 SUMMARY

Third Quarter 2023 Highlights

●

Solid investment performance, with 65%, 58%, 67% and 72% of our AUM outperforming relevant benchmarks on a one-, three-, five- and 10-year basis, respectively, as of September 30, 2023.

●

AUM decreased to $308.3 billion, down (4%) from June 30, 2023, mainly due to market performance and U.S. dollar appreciation.

●

Net outflows for the third quarter 2023 were $2.6 billion compared to net outflows of $5.8 billion in the third quarter 2022.

●

Third quarter 2023 diluted earnings per share was $0.56, or $0.64 on an adjusted basis. Refer to the Non-GAAP Financial Measures section below for information on adjusted non-GAAP figures.

●

On October 31, 2023, our Board of Directors declared a $0.39 per share dividend for the third quarter 2023 and approved a new share repurchase program pursuant to which we are authorized to repurchase up to $150 million of our common shares.

Financial Summary

Results are reported on a U.S. GAAP basis. Adjusted non-GAAP figures are presented in the Non-GAAP Financial Measures section below.

Revenue for the third quarter 2023 was $521.0 million, an increase of $8.1 million, or 2%, compared to the third quarter 2022. Key drivers of the increase include the following:

●

An increase of $8.7 million in management fees primarily due to a market-driven increase in average AUM compared to the third quarter 2022.

Total operating expenses for the third quarter 2023 were $399.3 million, an increase of $7.1 million, or 2%, compared to operating expenses in the third quarter 2022. Key drivers of the increase include the following:

●

An increase of $9.0 million in general, administrative and occupancy expenses primarily driven by information technology costs.

Table of Contents

Operating income for the third quarter 2023 was $121.7 million, an increase of $1.0 million, or 1%, compared to the third quarter 2022. Our operating margin was 23.4% in the third quarter 2023 compared to 23.5% in the third quarter 2022.

Net income attributable to JHG for the third quarter 2023 was $93.5 million, a decrease of $14.1 million, or (13%), compared to the third quarter 2022. In addition to the aforementioned factors affecting revenue and operating expenses, key drivers of the variance include the following:

●

An unfavorable movement of $16.9 million in investment gains (losses), net, partially offset by an increase of $14.5 million in net loss (income) attributable to noncontrolling interests in the third quarter 2023 compared to the third quarter 2022. Movements in investment gains (losses), net and net loss (income) attributable to noncontrolling interests are primarily due to fair value adjustments in relation to our seeded investment products and derivative instruments, and the consolidation and deconsolidation of third-party ownership interests in seeded investment products.

●

A decline of $27.3 million in other non-operating income (expense), net, primarily due to a provision for a credit loss and a contingent consideration adjustment on a previous disposition and unfavorable foreign currency translation, partially offset by an increase in interest income driven by higher interest rates on cash balances.

●

A decrease of $14.7 million in our income tax provision, primarily due to $8.8 million of non-cash deferred tax benefit recognized during the third quarter 2023 related to the change to our state tax rate, resulting in revaluation of our U.S. deferred tax assets and liabilities from 23.9% to 23.5%.

Investment Performance of Assets Under Management

The following table is a summary of investment performance as of September 30, 2023:

Percentage of AUM outperforming benchmark	1 year			3 years			5 years			10 years
Equities		83	%		46	%		56	%		60	%

Alternatives		65	%		97	%		97	%		100	%
Total		65	%		58	%		67	%		72	%

Assets Under Management

Our AUM as of September 30, 2023, was $308.3 billion, an increase of $21.0 billion, or 7%, from December 31, 2022, driven primarily by positive market movements of $19.6 billion and net sales of $2.4 billion.

Our non-USD AUM is primarily denominated in GBP, EUR and AUD. During the three months ended September 30, 2023, the USD strengthened against GBP, EUR and AUD, resulting in a $3.5 billion decease in our AUM. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the USD weakened against GBP and strengthened against EUR and AUD, resulting in a $1.0 billion decrease in our AUM. As of September 30, 2023, approximately 30% of our AUM was non-USD-denominated.

Our AUM and flows by capability for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, were as follows (in billions):

Valuation of Assets Under Management

The fair value of our AUM is based on the value of the underlying cash and investment securities of our funds, trusts and segregated mandates. A significant proportion of these securities is listed or quoted on a recognized securities exchange or market and is regularly traded thereon; these investments are valued based on unadjusted quoted market prices. However, for non-U.S. equity securities held by U.S. mutual funds, excluding exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”), the quoted market prices may be adjusted to capture market movement between the time the local market closes and the NYSE closes. Other investments, including over-the-counter (“OTC”) derivative contracts (which are dealt in or through a clearing firm, exchanges or financial institutions), are valued by reference to the most recent official settlement price quoted by the appointed market vendor, and in the event no price is available from this source, a broker quotation may be used. Physical property held is valued monthly by a specialist independent appraiser.

When a readily ascertainable market value does not exist for an investment, the fair value is calculated using a variety of methodologies, including the expected cash flows of its underlying net asset base, taking into account applicable discount rates and other factors; comparable securities or relevant indices; recent financing rounds; revenue multiples; or a combination thereof. Judgment is used to ascertain if a formerly active market has become inactive and to determine fair values when markets have become inactive. Our Fair Value Pricing Committees are responsible for determining or approving these unquoted prices, which are reported to those charged with governance of the funds and trusts. For funds that invest in markets that are closed at their valuation point, an assessment is made daily to determine whether a fair value pricing adjustment is required to the fund’s valuation. This may be due to significant market movements in other correlated open markets, scheduled market closures or unscheduled market closures as a result of natural disaster or government intervention.

Third-party administrators hold a key role in the collection and validation of prices used in the valuation of the securities. Daily price validation is completed using techniques such as day-on-day tolerance movements, invariant prices, excessive movement checks and intra-vendor tolerance checks. Our data management team performs oversight of this process and completes annual due diligence on the processes of third parties.

Table of Contents

In other cases, we and the sub-administrators perform a number of procedures to validate the pricing received from third-party providers. For actively traded equity and fixed income securities, prices are received daily from both a primary and secondary vendor. Prices from the primary and secondary vendors are compared to identify any discrepancies. In the event of a discrepancy, a price challenge may be issued to both vendors. Securities with significant day-to-day price changes require additional research, which may include a review of all news pertaining to the issue and issuer, and any corporate actions. All fixed income prices are reviewed by our fixed income trading desk to incorporate market activity information available to our traders. In the event the traders have received price indications from market makers for a particular issue, this information is transmitted to the pricing vendors.

We leverage the expertise of our fund management teams across the business to cross-invest assets and create value for our clients. Where cross investment occurs, assets and flows are identified, and the duplication is removed.

Results of Operations

Foreign Currency Translation

Foreign currency translation impacts our results of operations. Revenue is impacted by foreign currency translation, but the impact is generally determined by the primary currency of the individual funds. Expenses are also impacted by foreign currency translation, primarily driven by the translation of GBP to USD. The GBP weakened against the USD during the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022, and the GBP strengthened against the USD during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022. Meaningful foreign currency translation impacts to our revenue and operating expenses are discussed below.

Management fees

Management fees increased by $8.7 million during the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022, primarily due to favorable foreign currency translation of $7.1 million.

Management fees decreased by $120.8 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022, primarily due to a market-driven decrease in average AUM.

Performance fees

Performance fees are derived across a number of product ranges. U.S. mutual fund performance fees are recognized on a monthly basis, while all other performance fees are recognized on a quarterly or annual basis. The investment management fees paid by each U.S. mutual fund subject to a performance fee is the base management fee plus or minus a performance fee adjustment, as determined by the relative investment performance of the fund, over a 36-month rolling period, compared to a specified benchmark index. Performance fees by product type consisted of the following for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 (in millions):

	Three months ended						Nine months ended						Three months ended			Nine months ended

Table of Contents

Performance fees decreased by $2.6 million during the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022, primarily due to a decline in the performance fees associated with segregated mandates.

Performance fees decreased by $11.6 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022, primarily due to a decrease in the performance of absolute return funds and other funds.

Shareowner servicing fees

Shareowner servicing fees are primarily composed of U.S. mutual fund servicing fees, which are driven by AUM. Shareowner servicing fees decreased by $13.0 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022, primarily due to a decline in average AUM.

Other revenue

Other revenue is primarily composed of 12b-1 distribution fees, general administration charges and other fee revenue. Other revenue decreased by $9.7 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022, primarily due to a decline in average AUM.

Employee compensation and benefits

Employee compensation and benefits increased by $6.7 million during the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022. The increase was primarily driven by unfavorable foreign currency translation of $4.9 million, a $2.0 million increase in project charges driven by less capitalization of internal labor costs related to the order management system transformation project, which was completed in the second quarter of 2023, and $1.9 million of base-pay increases, partially offset by a $2.4 million decline in fixed compensation due to lower headcount.

Employee compensation and benefits decreased by $14.9 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease was primarily driven by a $10.9 million decline in fixed compensation due to lower headcount and a $10.3 million decline in variable compensation, partially offset by $5.6 million of base-pay increases.

Long-term incentive plans

Long-term incentive plan expenses decreased by $8.5 million during the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022, primarily due to a decrease of $12.0 million for the roll-off of vested awards and the forfeiture of expense related to departed employees exceeding the roll-on of new awards and the acceleration of expense related to departed employees. This decline was partially offset by a $1.8 million increase driven by market appreciation of mutual fund share awards and certain long-term incentive awards and unfavorable foreign currency translation of $1.3 million.

Long-term incentive plan expenses decreased by $7.5 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022, primarily due to a decrease of $31.5 million for the roll-off of vested awards and the forfeiture of expense related to departed employees exceeding the roll-on of new awards and the acceleration of expense related to departed employees, partially offset by a $24.0 million increase driven by market appreciation of mutual fund share awards and certain long-term incentive awards.

Table of Contents

Distribution expenses

Distribution expenses are paid to financial intermediaries for the distribution and servicing of our retail investment products and are typically calculated based on the amount of the intermediary-sourced AUM. Distribution expenses decreased by $2.7 million during the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022, and by $45.7 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022, primarily due to a decline in average AUM subject to distribution expenses.

Investment administration

Investment administration expenses, which represent fund administration and fund accounting decreased by $2.5 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022, primarily due to a reduction in fund accounting expenses and administration expenses.

Marketing expenses

Marketing expenses increased by $4.0 million during the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022, and by $6.9 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022, primarily due to an increase in advertising campaigns and sponsored events.

General, administrative and occupancy

General, administrative and occupancy expenses increased by $9.0 million during the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022. The increase was primarily due to a $3.2 million increase in the amortization of capitalized cloud computing costs, primarily related to the order management system transformation project which was completed in the second quarter of 2023, unfavorable foreign currency translation of $2.1 million and a $2.1 million increase in software costs.

General, administrative and occupancy expenses decreased by $3.1 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease was primarily due to a $4.1 million reduction in rent-related expenses, a $3.1 million decrease in recruitment fees, a $2.2 million decrease in research costs and a $2.2 million decrease in non-capitalizable hardware costs. These decreases were partially offset by a $4.8 million increase in the amortization of capitalized cloud computing costs, primarily related to the order management system transformation project which was completed in the second quarter of 2023, and a $4.0 million increase in software costs primarily related to application licensing fees.

Depreciation and amortization

Depreciation and amortization expenses decreased $1.3 million during the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022, primarily due to an $0.8 million decline in the amortization of internally developed software as assets became fully amortized during the current year and a $0.6 million decrease in the amortization of prepaid commissions.

Depreciation and amortization expenses decreased by $6.3 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022, primarily due to a $3.4 million decrease in the amortization of prepaid commissions, a $1.3 million decline in the amortization of internally developed software as assets became fully amortized during the current year, and a $1.2 million decrease in the amortization of intangible assets resulting from the sale of Intech, which was recognized during the first quarter 2022.

Investment gains (losses), net moved unfavorably by $16.9 million and favorably by $149.2 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively. Movements in investment gains (losses), net are primarily due to the consolidation and deconsolidation of third-party ownership interests in seeded investment products and fair value adjustments in relation to our seeded investment products. In addition, a $12.5 million correction due to an error of previously recognized earnings associated with an equity method investment impacted investment gains (losses), net for the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

Gains and losses attributable to third-party ownership interests in seeded investment products are noncontrolling interests and are not included in net income attributable to JHG.

Other non-operating income (expense), net

Other non-operating income (expense), net declined $27.3 million during the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022, primarily due a $13.4 million provision for a credit loss, an $11.9 million contingent consideration fair value adjustment and unfavorable foreign currency revaluation of $13.8 million, partially offset by a $10.6 million increase in interest income driven by higher interest rates on cash balances.

Other non-operating income (expense), net declined $6.0 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The decline was primarily due to unfavorable foreign currency revaluation of $14.1 million, a $13.4 million provision for a credit loss and an $11.9 million contingent consideration fair value adjustment. These decreases were partially offset by a $25.7 million increase in interest income, driven by higher interest rates on cash balances, and a loss of $9.1 million related to the sale of Intech, which was recognized in the first quarter 2022.

Income tax provision

Our effective tax rates for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, were as follows:

	Three months ended						Nine months ended
	September 30,						September 30,
	2023			2022			2023			2022
Effective tax rate		13.2	%		19.6	%		19.3	%		33.0	%

The effective tax rates for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the same periods in 2022, were impacted by the change to our state tax rate. As a result, the U.S. deferred tax assets and liabilities were revalued from 23.9% to 23.5%, creating a non-cash deferred tax benefit of $8.8 million. In addition, the effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, was impacted by the change in noncontrolling interests.

Outlook for the Remainder of 2023

We have maintained continuous cost discipline balanced with strategic investments in our business and we expect to attain $50 million in gross-cost efficiencies. The gross-cost efficiencies will be offset by investments in our business and infrastructure to fuel growth. Going forward, we anticipate non-compensation expenses to increase reflecting areas of opportunity, including marketing and advertising in our U.S. intermediary business and investments supporting our other strategic initiatives. Additionally, we will continue amortizing capitalized costs through the general, administrative and occupancy line on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income, relating to the order management system transformation project that went live in the second quarter 2023.

Full-year 2023 expectations are listed below:

●

Aggregate performance fees for the full-year 2023 are expected to be towards the negative end of the range of negative $35 million to negative $45 million at current investment performance levels.

●

Adjusted compensation to revenue ratio is expected to be in the mid-40s, on a percentage basis.

●

Adjusted non-compensation operating expenses percentage annual growth rate is expected to be in the mid-single digits.

●

Statutory tax rate is expected to be 24%.

Other information

JHG announced that it has requested and received formal approval to be voluntarily delisted from the Australian Securities Exchange ("ASX"), where our common stock trades in the form of Chess Depository Interests ("CDIs"). We expect that the delisting will occur on or about December 6, 2023. Following the delisting, our CDIs will no longer trade on the ASX; however, JHG common stock will continue to be listed on the NYSE. Our outstanding shares of common stock will not be impacted by the delisting. The delisting from the ASX is not expected to have any material impact on our financial position or operating results other than in relation to savings in compliance and certain ancillary costs associated with maintaining the ASX listing. We intend to provide holders of our CDIs additional information regarding their rights in connection with the delisting, including their ability to sell their CDIs in connection with the delisting or convert their CDIs into common stock tradeable on the NYSE.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We report our financial results in accordance with GAAP. However, we evaluate our profitability and our ongoing operations using additional non-GAAP financial measures. These measures are not in accordance with, or a substitute for, GAAP, and our financial measures may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. Management uses these performance measures to evaluate the business, and adjusted values are consistent with internal management reporting. We have provided a reconciliation below of our non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures.

We contract with third-party intermediaries to distribute and service certain of our investment products. Fees for distribution- and servicing-related activities are either provided for separately in an investment product’s prospectus or are part of the management fee. Under both arrangements, the fees are collected by us and passed through to third-party intermediaries who are responsible for performing the applicable services. The majority of distribution and servicing fees we collect are passed through to third-party intermediaries. JHG management believes that the deduction of distribution and servicing fees from revenue in the computation of adjusted revenue reflects the pass-through nature of these revenues. In certain arrangements, we perform the distribution and servicing activities and retain the applicable fee. Revenues for distribution and servicing activities performed by us are not deducted from GAAP revenue.

(2)

Adjustments for the three months ended September 30, 2023, include rent expense, rent income and other rent-related adjustments associated with subleased office space, and the acceleration of long-term incentive plan expense related to the departure of certain employees. Adjustments for the three months ended September 30, 2022, primarily consist of the acceleration of long-term incentive plan expense related to the departure of certain employees and rent expense on subleased office space. JHG management believes these costs are not representative of our ongoing operations.

(3)

Investment management contracts have been identified as a separately identifiable intangible asset arising on the acquisition of subsidiaries and businesses. Such contracts are recognized at the net present value of the expected future cash flows arising from the contracts at the date of acquisition. For segregated mandate contracts, the intangible asset is amortized on a straight-line basis over the expected life of the contracts. JHG management believes these non-cash and acquisition-related costs are not representative of our ongoing operations.

(4)	Operating margin is operating income divided by revenue.

(5)	Adjusted operating margin is adjusted operating income divided by adjusted revenue.

(6)

The adjustment for the three months ended September 30, 2023, primarily consists of a provision for a credit loss and a contingent consideration fair value adjustment related to the 2022 sale of Intech. Adjustments for the three months ended September 30, 2022, consist primarily of accumulated foreign currency translation expense related to JHG liquidated entities. JHG management believes these costs are not representative of our ongoing operations.

The tax impact of the adjustments is calculated based on the applicable U.S. or foreign statutory tax rate as it relates to each adjustment. Certain adjustments are either not taxable or not tax-deductible. Adjustments for the three months ended September 30, 2023, were impacted by the change to our state tax rate. As a result, the U.S. deferred tax assets and liabilities were revalued from 23.9% to 23.5%, creating a non-cash deferred tax benefit of $8.8 million.

(9)	Adjusted diluted earnings per share is adjusted net income attributable to JHG common shareholders divided by weighted-average diluted common shares outstanding.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Our capital structure, together with available cash balances, cash flows generated from operations, and further capital and credit market activities, if necessary, should provide us with sufficient resources to meet present and future cash needs, including operating and other obligations as they fall due and anticipated future capital requirements.

The following table summarizes key balance sheet data relating to our liquidity and capital resources as of September 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022 (in millions):

	September 30,		December 31,
	2023		2022
Cash and cash equivalents held by the Company	$	1,115.7	$	1,156.5
Investments held by the Company	$	359.5	$	359.1
Fees and other receivables	$	232.8	$	252.9
Long-term debt	$	305.3	$	307.5

Cash and cash equivalents consist primarily of cash at banks and held in money market funds. Cash and cash equivalents exclude cash held by consolidated VIEs and consolidated VREs, and investments exclude noncontrolling interests as these assets are not available for general corporate purposes.

Investments held by us represent seeded investment products (exclusive of noncontrolling interests), investments related to deferred compensation plans and other less significant investments classified as current assets in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

We believe that existing cash and cash from operations should be sufficient to satisfy our short-term capital requirements. Expected short-term uses of cash include ordinary operating expenditures, seed capital investments, interest expense, dividend payments, income tax payments and common stock repurchases. We may also use available cash for other general corporate purposes and acquisitions.

Regulatory Capital

We are subject to regulatory oversight by the SEC, the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”), the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (“CFTC”), the Financial Conduct Authority (“FCA”) and other international regulatory bodies. We strive to ensure that we are compliant with our regulatory obligations at all times. Our primary capital requirement relates to the FCA-supervised regulatory group (a sub-group of our company), comprising Janus Henderson (UK) Holdings Limited, all of its subsidiaries and Janus Henderson Investors International Limited (“JHIIL”). JHIIL is included as a connected undertaking to meet the requirements of the Investment Firm Prudential Regime (“IFPR”) for Markets in Financial Instruments Directive (“MiFID”) investment firms (“MIFIDPRU”). The combined capital requirement is £136.0 million ($166.0 million), resulting in £314.9 million ($384.4 million) of capital above the requirement as of September 30, 2023, based upon internal calculations and taking into account the effect of foreseeable dividends. The decrease in requirement is due to the conclusions drawn from our most recent Internal Capital and Risk Assessment (“ICARA”) review process. Capital requirements in other jurisdictions are not significant in aggregate. The FCA-supervised regulatory group is also subject to liquidity requirements and holds a sufficient surplus above these requirements.

Short-Term Liquidity and Capital Resources

Common Stock Purchases

On October 31, 2023, our Board of Directors approved the 2023 Corporate Buyback Program pursuant to which we are authorized to repurchase up to $150.0 million of our common stock on the NYSE at any time prior to the date of our 2024 Annual General Meeting of Shareholders.

Some of our executives and employees obtain rights to receive our common stock as part of their remuneration arrangements and employee entitlements. We satisfy these entitlements by transferring shares of existing common stock that we repurchase on-market for this purpose (“Share Plan Repurchases”). As a policy, we do not issue new shares to employees as part of our annual compensation practices. The Board of Directors separately approved the repurchase of up to 4 million additional shares of common stock for the purpose of making grants to executives and employees. During the third quarter 2023, we did not purchase any shares related to remuneration arrangements or employee entitlements.

Dividends

The payment of cash dividends is within the discretion of our Board of Directors and depends on many factors, including our results of operations, financial condition, capital requirements, general business conditions and legal requirements.

Dividends declared and paid during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, were as follows:

Dividend		Date	Dividends paid		Date
per share		declared	(in US$ millions)		paid
$	0.39	February 1, 2023	$	64.7	February 28, 2023
$	0.39	May 2, 2023	$	64.6	May 31, 2023
$	0.39	August 1, 2023	$	64.7	August 30, 2023

On October 31, 2023, our Board of Directors declared a $0.39 per share dividend for the third quarter 2023. The quarterly dividend will be paid on November 30, 2023, to shareholders of record at the close of business on November 13, 2023.

Long-Term Liquidity and Capital Resources

Expected long-term commitments as of September 30, 2023, include principal and interest payments related to the 2025 Senior Notes and operating and finance lease payments. We expect to fund our long-term commitments with existing cash and cash generated from operations or by accessing capital and credit markets as necessary.

2025 Senior Notes

The 2025 Senior Notes have a principal amount of $300.0 million, pay interest at 4.875% semiannually on February 1 and August 1 of each year, and mature on August 1, 2025.

Defined Benefit Pension Plan

As of December 31, 2022, our defined benefit pension plan had a net retirement asset of $94.9 million.

Other Sources of Liquidity

On June 30, 2023, we entered into a new $200 million unsecured, revolving Credit Facility and terminated our former Credit Facility as it was approaching its expiration date. The new Credit Facility includes an option for us to request an increase to our borrowing capacity under the Credit Facility of up to an additional $50.0 million. The maturity date of the Credit Facility is June 30, 2028.

The Credit Facility may be used for general corporate purposes and bears interest on borrowings outstanding at the relevant interbank offer rate plus a spread.

The Credit Facility contains a financial covenant with respect to leverage. Should our long-term credit rating fall below a predefined threshold, our financing leverage ratio cannot exceed 3.00x EBITDA. At the latest practicable date before the date of this report, we were in compliance with all covenants, and there were no outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility. Refer to Note 8 — Debt for further information on the Credit Facility.

Operating Activities

Fluctuations in operating cash flows are attributable to changes in net income and working capital items, which can vary from period to period based on the amount and timing of cash receipts and payments.

Investing Activities

Cash provided by (used for) investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, was as follows (in millions):

We periodically add new investment strategies to our investment product offerings by providing the initial cash investment, or seeding, in a product. The primary purpose of seeded investment products is to generate an investment performance track record in these products and leverage that track record to attract third-party investors. We may redeem our seed capital investments for a variety of reasons, including when third-party investments in the relevant product are sufficient to sustain the investment strategy. The cash associated with seeding and redeeming seeded investment products is reflected in the above table as sales (purchases) of investments, net.

We consolidate certain seeded investment products into our group financial statements. The purchases and sales of investments within consolidated seeded investment products are disclosed separately from our capital contributions to seed a product. We also maintain an economic hedge program that uses derivative instruments to mitigate against market exposure of certain seeded investments. The cash received and paid as part of this program is reflected in the table above.

The transactions discussed above represent a majority of the activity within investing activities on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

Financing Activities

Cash used for financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, was as follows (in millions):

	Nine months ended
	September 30,
	2023			2022
Dividends paid to shareholders	$	(194.0	)	$	(194.5	)
Third-party sales (purchases) in consolidated seeded investment products, net		174.5			(16.2	)
Purchase of common stock for stock-based compensation plans		(57.3	)		(106.7	)
Purchase of common stock for share buyback program		—			(98.9	)
Proceeds from stock-based compensation plans		2.5			3.3
Other		(1.5	)		(2.2	)
Cash used for financing activities	$	(75.8	)	$	(415.2	)

The majority of cash flows within financing activities were driven by third-party sales (purchases) in consolidated seeded investment products, net. This activity represents the cash received from third-party investors in a seeded investment product that is consolidated into our group financial statements. When a third-party investor redeems the investment, a cash outflow is disclosed as a sale.

Another significant driver of cash flows within financing activities was the payment of dividends to shareholders and purchases of common stock as part of the 2022 Corporate Buyback Program, which expired in the second quarter 2023, and for stock-based compensation plans. We did not repurchase any shares as part of the 2022 Corporate Buyback Program during the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

We continually evaluate the accounting policies and estimates used to prepare the condensed consolidated financial statements. In general, management’s estimates are based on historical experience, information from third-party professionals, as appropriate, and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under current facts and circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates made by management. There were no material changes to our critical accounting estimates described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

There were no material changes in our exposure to market risks from that previously reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

As of September 30, 2023, our management evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Disclosure controls and procedures are designed by us to ensure that we record, process, summarize and report within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rule and forms the information we must disclose in reports that we file with or submit to the SEC. Ali Dibadj, our CEO, and Roger Thompson, our Chief Financial Officer, reviewed and participated in management’s evaluation of the disclosure controls and procedures. Based on this evaluation, Mr. Dibadj and Mr. Thompson concluded that as of the date of their evaluation, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the third quarter 2023 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
