Janus Henderson Group plc (NYSE/ASX: JHG; ‘JHG’, ‘the Group’)
published its third quarter 2019 results for the period ended 30
September 2019.
Third quarter 2019 net income attributable to JHG was US$112.1
million compared to US$109.4 million in the second quarter 2019 and
US$111.2 million in the third quarter 2018. Adjusted net income
attributable to JHG, adjusted for one-time, acquisition and
transaction related costs, of US$124.7 million increased 4%
compared to US$119.7 million in the second quarter 2019 and
declined 10% compared to US$138.6 million in the third quarter
2018.
Third quarter 2019 diluted earnings per share was US$0.58
compared to US$0.56 in the second quarter 2019 and US$0.55 in the
third quarter 2018. Adjusted diluted earnings per share of US$0.64
increased 5% compared to US$0.61 in the second quarter 2019 and
declined 7% versus US$0.69 in the third quarter 2018.
Dick Weil, Chief Executive
Officer of Janus Henderson Group plc, stated:
“Our third quarter results reflect a continuation of the
improving trends we have seen across the Group. Our strong
financial foundation is allowing us to continue to invest in our
business while balancing strict business discipline and returning
excess cash to shareholders.
“We are pleased that firm-wide investment performance continues
to be strong, and in areas that were previously experiencing weaker
performance we are seeing signs of improvement. This combination is
leading to new business and market share gains across a number of
regions and capabilities.
“That said, despite the improvement, we remain cautious about
the net flow outlook for the balance of 2019 as we continue to see
headwinds in several areas of our business.”
SUMMARY OF FINANCIAL RESULTS
(unaudited) (in US$ 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, in the
opinion of Management, the profitability of the Group and its
ongoing operations is best evaluated using additional non-GAAP
financial measures on an adjusted basis. See adjusted statements of
income reconciliation for additional information.

Third quarter 2019 adjusted revenue of US$433.2 million declined
from the second quarter 2019 result of US$434.4 million as slightly
higher average AUM and one additional calendar day were offset by a
lower net management fee margin. Third quarter 2019 adjusted
operating income of US$160.2 million improved from US$152.0 million
in the second quarter 2019, primarily driven by a decline in
long-term incentive plan expenses and lower seasonal marketing
expenses.
DIVIDEND AND SHARE
BUYBACK
On 29 October 2019, the Board declared a third quarter dividend
in respect of the three months ended 30 September 2019 of US$0.36
per share. Shareholders on the register on the record date of 11
November 2019 will be paid the dividend on 25 November 2019. Janus
Henderson does not offer a dividend reinvestment plan.
As part of the US$200 million on-market buyback programme
approved by the Board in February, JHG purchased approximately 4.2
million of its ordinary shares on the NYSE and its CHESS Depositary
Interests (CDIs) on the ASX in the third quarter, for a total
outlay of US$81 million.

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, ETFs, Managed CDOs, Private Equity
funds and custom non-discretionary accounts with no corresponding
composite are excluded from the analysis. Excluded assets represent
5% of AUM as at 30 September 2019. Capabilities defined by Janus

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.

- Substantially all distribution expenses are paid to financial
intermediaries for the distribution of JHG’s investment products.
JHG management believes that the deduction of third-party
distribution, service and advisory expenses from revenue in the
computation of net revenue reflects the nature of these expenses,
as these costs are passed through to external parties that perform
functions on behalf of, and distribute, the Group’s managed
AUM.
- Adjustments primarily represent integration costs in relation
to the Merger, including severance costs, legal costs and
consulting fees. JHG management believes these costs do not
represent the ongoing operations of the Group.
- Investment management contracts have been identified as a
separately identifiable intangible asset arising on the acquisition
of subsidiaries and businesses. Such contracts are recognised 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 amortised on a
straight-line basis over the expected life of the contracts. The
three months ended 30 June 2019 also include a US$18 million
impairment of certain mutual fund contracts. JHG management
believes these non-cash and acquisition-related costs do not
represent the ongoing operations of the Group.
- 2019 adjustments primarily represent contingent consideration
adjustments associated with acquisitions prior to the Merger and
increased debt expense as a consequence of the fair value uplift on
debt due to acquisition accounting. Adjustments for the three
months ended 30 September 2018 primarily represent fair value
movements on options issued to Dai-ichi in addition to contingent
consideration costs associated with acquisitions prior to the
merger. JHG management believes these costs do not represent the
ongoing operations of the Group.
- The tax impact of the adjustments is calculated based on the US
or foreign statutory tax rate as they relate to each adjustment.
Certain adjustments are either not taxable or not
tax-deductible.

In the opinion of management of Janus Henderson Group plc, the
condensed consolidated financial statements contain all normal
recurring adjustments necessary to fairly present the financial
position, results of operations and cash flows of JHG in accordance
with US GAAP. Such financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with the instructions to Form 10‑Q pursuant to the rules
and regulations of the SEC. Certain information and footnote
disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in

sheet date have been evaluated for inclusion in the financial
statements through the issuance date and are included in the notes
to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Group have been properly maintained, and the Condensed Consolidated

involves risk, including the possible loss of principal and
fluctuation of value.
This document includes statements concerning potential future
events involving Janus Henderson Group plc that could differ

Securities and Exchange Commission (Commission file no. 001‑38103),

and ‘Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations’. Many of these factors are beyond the
control of JHG and its management. Any forward-looking statements
contained in this document are as at the date on which such
statements were made. Janus Henderson Group assumes no duty to
update them, even if experience, unexpected events, or future
changes make it clear that any projected results expressed or
implied therein will not be realised.
Annualised, pro forma, projected and estimated numbers are used
for illustrative purposes only, are not forecasts and may not
reflect actual results.
