JANUS CAPITAL GROUP INC. ANNOUNCES

THIRD QUARTER RESULTS

 

DENVER — Janus Capital Group Inc. (“JCG”) (NYSE: JNS) today reported third quarter net income of $27.4 million, or $0.15 per diluted share, compared with net income of $41.9 million, or $0.23 per diluted share, in the second quarter 2011 and net income of $32.5 million, or $0.18 per diluted share, in the third quarter 2010. Third quarter 2011 net income includes a net charge of $0.06 per share primarily related to mark-to-market losses on investments.

 

The company’s operating margin for the third quarter 2011 was 31.3% compared with 31.0% for the second quarter 2011 and 23.4% for the third quarter 2010.

 

Flows and Assets Under Management

 

Average assets under management during the third quarter 2011 were $155.9 billion compared with $171.6 billion during the second quarter 2011 and $155.2 billion during the third quarter 2010.

 

At September 30, 2011, the company’s total assets under management were $141.0 billion compared with $169.8 billion at June 30, 2011 and $160.8 billion at September 30, 2010.

 

The decrease in complex-wide assets during the third quarter 2011 primarily reflects net market depreciation of $26.5 billion and long-term net outflows of $2.4 billion. Fundamental equity and mathematical equity long-term net outflows totaled $3.8 billion and $0.7 billion, respectively, while fixed income long-term net inflows totaled $2.1 billion.

Third quarter 2011 revenues of $236.9 million decreased $27.1 million, or 10.3%, from second quarter 2011 and included $4.2 million of negative performance fees incurred on certain mutual funds during the third quarter 2011 driven by underperformance. Third quarter 2011 operating expenses decreased $19.5 million, or 10.7%, primarily due to lower variable expenses.

Data presented reflects past performance, which is no guarantee of future results. Due to market volatility, current performance may be higher or lower than the performance shown. Call 877.33JANUS (52687) or visit janus.com/advisor/mutual-funds for performance, rankings and ratings current to the most recent month-end.

 

Janus Capital Group Inc. (“JCG”) provides investment advisory services through its primary subsidiaries, Janus Capital Management LLC (“Janus”), INTECH Investment Management LLC (“INTECH”) and Perkins Investment Management LLC (“Perkins”).

 

“Complex-Wide Mutual Funds” means all affiliated mutual funds managed by Janus, INTECH and Perkins. “Fundamental Equity Mutual Funds” means all mutual funds managed by Janus or Perkins that invest in equity securities. “Fixed Income Mutual Funds” means all mutual funds managed by Janus that invest primarily in fixed income securities. “Mathematical Equity Strategies” means all discretionary managed accounts (not mutual funds) that are advised or sub-advised by INTECH.

 

Mutual fund relative performance analysis shown is for each Fund’s initial share class: Class T, S or I Shares in the Janus retail fund (“JIF”) trust and the Institutional or Service Shares in the Janus Aspen Series (“JAS”). These share classes may not be eligible for purchase by all investors. Other share classes may have higher sales and management fees, which can result in differences in performance.

 

Investing involves risk, including the possible loss of principal. The value of your investment will fluctuate over time and you may gain or lose money. A fund’s performance may be affected by risks that include those associated with non-diversification, non-investment grade debt securities, high-yield/high-risk securities, undervalued or overlooked companies, investments in specific industries or countries and potential conflicts of interest. Additional risks to funds may include those associated with investing in foreign securities, emerging markets, initial public offerings, real estate investment trusts (REITs), derivatives, short sales and companies with relatively small market capitalizations. Each fund has different risks. Please see a Janus prospectus for more information about risk, fund holdings and other details.

Lipper performance on an asset weighted basis is calculated by taking all funds and assigning the assets under management (“AUM”) in each respective fund to either the 1st, 2nd, 3rd or 4th quartile bucket based on each fund’s respective Lipper relative rankings.  The total AUM of each quartile’s bucket is then divided by complex-wide total AUM to arrive at the respective percent of AUM in each bucket. Lipper, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Thomson Reuters, provides independent insight on global collective investments including mutual funds, retirement funds, hedge funds, fund fees and expenses to the asset management and media communities. Lipper ranks the performance of mutual funds within a classification of funds that have similar investment objectives. Funds not ranked by Lipper are not included in the analysis.

 

The Overall Morningstar RatingTM for a fund is derived from a weighted average of the performance figures associated with its three-, five- and ten-year (if applicable) Morningstar RatingTM metrics. For each fund with at least a three-year history, Morningstar calculates a Morningstar RatingTM based on a Morningstar Risk-Adjusted Return measure that accounts for variation in a fund’s monthly performance (including the effects of sales charges, loads, and redemption fees), placing more emphasis on downward variations and rewarding consistent performance. The top 10% of the funds in each category receive 5 stars, the next 22.5% receive 4 stars, the next 35% receive 3 stars, the next 22.5% receive 2 stars and the bottom 10% receive 1 star. (Each share class is counted as a fraction of one fund within this scale and rated separately, which may cause slight variations in the distribution percentages.) The Morningstar RatingTM may differ among share classes of a mutual fund as a result of different sales loads and/or expense structures. It may be based, in part, on the performance of a predecessor fund. Morningstar does not rank funds with less than a 3-year performance history.

 

Please consider the charges, risks, expenses and investment objectives carefully before investing. For a prospectus containing this and other information, please call JCG at (800) 525-3713 or download the file from www.janus.com/info. Read it carefully before you invest or send money.
