Janus Henderson Wins Four LESG Lipper Awards for US Funds

Awards recognize strong, risk-adjusted performance

DENVER - Janus Henderson Investors has been recognized for performance in the U.S. with four LESG Lipper Fund Awards. The annual awards are granted to funds and fund management firms for consistently strong risk-adjusted three-, five-, and ten-year performance relative to their peers.

Janus Henderson won awards for the following U.S. funds: Janus Henderson Overseas Fund (NYSE: JDINX), the Janus Henderson Global Research Fund (NYSE: JWWFX), the Janus Henderson Responsible International Dividend Fund (NYSE: HDIVX), and the Janus Henderson European Focus Fund (NYSE: HFERX).

The Janus Henderson Overseas Fund won for the five-year period in the International Large-Cap Core category. The Fund seeks capital growth by investing in select international companies across market-cap and style spectrums where the portfolio managers believe the market may underestimate free-cash-flow growth. The Fund was launched in 1994 and is managed by Portfolio Managers Julian McManus and Christopher O'Malley.

The Janus Henderson Global Research Fund won for the 10-year period in the Global Large-Cap Core category. The Fund seeks long-term capital growth by identifying industry-leading companies with brand power, enduring business models, and strong competitive positioning regardless of market cap, geography, or subsector. The Fund was launched in 2005 and is managed by Portfolio Managers Matt Peron, John Jordan, and Joshua Cummings.

The Janus Henderson Responsible International Dividend Fund won for the 10-year period in the International Equity Income Funds category. This bottom-up, valuation-driven portfolio has defined ESG criteria and seeks to identify companies with long-term profit potential and produce attractive levels of dividend income. The Fund was launched in 2012 and is managed by Head of Global Equity Income Ben Lofthouse and Portfolio Manager Faizan Baig.

The Janus Henderson European Focus Fund won for the 5-year period in the European Region Funds category. It is a regional equity fund that seeks to achieve long-term capital appreciation primarily through investment in European companies. The management team applies a high-conviction approach, with a focus on opportunities that offer material upside potential, regardless of style. The Fund was launched in 2001 and is managed by Portfolio Manager Robert Schramm-Fuchs.

We believe that winning these Lipper Awards is a testament to Janus Henderson Investors' mission to help clients define and achieve superior financial outcomes through differentiated insights, disciplined investments, and world-class service.

Marc Pinto, Head of Americas Equities at Janus Henderson Investors, said: "We're honored to receive performance-based recognition for four of our actively managed funds. Our Equities team is consistently dedicated to ensuring clients can pursue strong, risk-adjusted returns through a variety of differentiated strategies that meet many investment objectives. With so much volatility over the last year, active managers had an opportunity to add real value by helping clients find reliable signals among all the noise so they could stay on track toward their goals. We're grateful that our clients trust us to deliver results even amid turbulent markets and an economy where the future is uncertain."

Robert Jenkins, Global Head of Research, Investment & Wealth LSEG Lipper, said: "The 2024 LSEG Lipper Fund Awards are recognizing perhaps the most dramatic three-year period that the markets have seen in decades. Fund managers being recognized have steered their investors through a pandemic, a mild recession, a war, skyrocketing inflation, and dramatic central bank intervention. We applaud the 2024 LSEG Lipper Fund Award winners, such as Janus Henderson Investors, for delivering outperformance and the accompanying comfort of consistency to investors' portfolios through a cross-current of global market disruptions."

Mutual fund investing involves market risk; principal loss is possible. Equity and fixed income securities are subject to various risks including, but not limited to, market risk, credit risk and interest rate risk. Foreign securities are subject to additional risks including currency fluctuations, political and economic uncertainty, increased volatility, lower liquidity and differing financial and information reporting standards, all of which are magnified in emerging markets.

There is no assurance that the investment process will consistently lead to successful investing.

Actively managed portfolios may fail to produce the intended results. No investment strategy can ensure a profit or eliminate the risk of loss.

Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) or sustainable investing considers factors beyond traditional financial analysis. This may limit available investments and cause performance and exposures to differ from, and potentially be more concentrated in certain areas than, the broader market.
