Janus Henderson Group plc (NYSE:JHG, "JHG, ", ", Janus Henderson, " or the "Company")) published its third quarter 2024 results for the period ended September 30, 2024. Third quarter 2024 operating income was US$164.7 million compared to US$164.3 million in the second quarter 2024 and US$121.7 million in the third quarter 2023. Adjusted operating income, adjusted for one-time, acquisition and transaction related costs, was US$170.5 million in the third quarter 2024 compared to US$164.7 million in the second quarter 2024 and US$125.4 million in the third quarter 2023.

Third quarter 2024 diluted earnings per share of US$0.17, which was impacted by a US$111.9 million non-cash, non-operating, accounting expense release of accumulated foreign currency translation adjustments related to JHG entities liquidated during the quarter, compared to US$0.81 in the second quarter 2024 and US$0.56 in the third quarter 2023.

Ali Dibadj, Chief Executive Officer, stated:

"Janus Henderson again delivered another solid set of quarterly results, building upon tangible momentum in the business. The results reflect market gains, solid investment performance produced by our world-class investment professionals, a second consecutive quarter of positive net flows delivered by our dedicated client groups, and the efforts and productivity from all our operating and support areas. Our teams have worked together to execute our strategy to Protect & Grow, Amplify, and Diversify our business, which is delivering growth across channels and regions. Better net flows, a stable net management fee rate, and operating leverage resulted in a 42% year-over-year increase in our adjusted diluted EPS to US$0.91. Our healthy balance sheet and strong cash flow generation provide us the flexibility to continue to invest in the business—both organically and inorganically—as well as return cash to shareholders. While we are pleased with the clear momentum, we recognize there will always be work to be done, and we continue to be 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.

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, legacy Tabula passive ETFs, Fixed Income Buy & Maintain mandates, legacy NBK Capital funds, 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.

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 September 30, 2024, 62%, 57%, 60%, and 63% of the 187, 175, 160, and 144 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 H 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.

Reconciliation of non-GAAP financial information

In addition to financial results reported in accordance with GAAP, we compute certain financial measures using non-GAAP components, as defined by the SEC. 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. We have provided a reconciliation of our non-GAAP components to the most directly comparable GAAP components. The following are reconciliations of GAAP revenue, operating expenses, operating income, net income attributable to JHG, and diluted earnings per share to adjusted revenue, adjusted operating expenses, adjusted operating income, adjusted net income attributable to JHG, and adjusted diluted earnings per share.

¹		JHG contracts with third-party intermediaries to distribute and service certain of its 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 JHG and passed through to third-party intermediaries who are responsible for performing the applicable services. The majority of distribution and servicing fees collected by JHG 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, JHG performs the distribution and servicing activities and retains the applicable fees. Revenues for distribution and servicing activities performed by JHG are not deducted from GAAP revenue. In addition to the adjustments related to distribution and servicing activities, other revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2024, and June 30, 2024, also includes an adjustment related to an employee secondment arrangement with a joint venture. The arrangement is pass-through in nature, and we believe the costs do not represent our ongoing operations.

²		Adjustments for the three months ended September 30, 2024, and June 30, 2024, include acquisition related expenses and the acceleration of long-term incentive plan expense related to the departure of certain employees. The adjustment for the three months ended June 30, 2024, also includes a US$4.7 million insurance reimbursement related to a separately managed account trade error that occurred in 2023. 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. JHG management believes these costs are not representative of our ongoing operations. Additionally, within the reconciliation of operating expenses to adjusted operating expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2024, and June 30, 2024, employee compensation and benefits also includes an adjustment related to an employee secondment arrangement with a joint venture. The arrangement is pass-through in nature, and we believe the costs do not represent 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		Adjustments for the three months ended September 30, 2024, and June 30, 2024, consist primarily of the release of accumulated foreign currency translation adjustments related to JHG liquidated entities. The adjustment for the three months ended September 30, 2023, includes a provision for a credit loss and contingent consideration fair value adjustment related to the 2022 sale of Intech. JHG management believes these costs are not representative of our ongoing operations.

⁵		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 US$8.8 million.
