Flows and Assets Under Management
Average assets under management during the third quarter increased 2.8% to $193.5 billion compared with $188.2 billion during the second quarter 2007. At September 30, 2007, the company’s total assets under management were $208.0 billion, an increase of 9.1%, compared with $190.6 billion at June 30, 2007. The increase in assets during the third quarter reflects $8.6 billion in market appreciation and fund performance, long-term net inflows of $0.7 billion and money market net inflows of $8.1 billion.
Janus’ INTECH subsidiary had long-term net outflows of $2.2 billion during the third quarter 2007 compared with long-term net inflows of $1.3 billion in the second quarter 2007. Excluding INTECH, Janus’ long-term net inflows were $2.9 billion in the third quarter 2007 versus $1.5 billion long-term net inflows in the previous quarter.
Investment Management
Janus’ relative investment management performance remained strong during the third quarter. Approximately 89%, 73% and 67% of the funds in the company’s primary retail fund family, Janus Investment Fund (JIF), ranked in the top half of their Lipper categories on a one-, three- and five-year total-return basis, respectively, as of September 30, 2007. Six of those funds ranked in the top 10% of their respective Lipper categories during the same one-, three- and five-year periods. In addition, 50% of JIF funds have a 4- or 5-star Morningstar overall rating at September 30, 2007, based on risk-adjusted returns.(3)
Janus CEO Gary Black said he was particularly proud that all 17 of the company’s Janus-managed JIF equity funds(4) ranked in the top half of their Lipper peers on a one-year total-return basis as of September 30, 2007. He also noted that 85% of those same funds finished in the top Lipper quartile during that period.
(3) Detailed Lipper total return rankings and Morningstar risk-adjusted return ratings for all JIF funds are on pages 9 and 10, respectively.
(4) Janus Managed JIF Equity Funds do not include Janus Capital Funds, Janus Adviser Series, Janus Aspen Series, Sub-advised or money markets. They also do not include JIF Value Funds, JIF Income Funds and INTECH Risk-Managed Stock Fund.

“This quarter’s significantly higher flows from Janus-managed products reflect our success with advisors and show that the marketplace recognizes our consistently strong performance,” Black said. “Despite INTECH’s short-term outflows, we have great confidence in its investment process, which has helped it build an excellent long-term track record.”

Continuing Operations
Third quarter 2007 revenues of $284.6 million increased $11.6 million from the previous quarter due to higher average assets under management driven primarily by market appreciation and investment performance. Total operating expenses increased $10.2 million from the second quarter as a result of higher investment team compensation and a $3.8 million net benefit recognized in the second quarter 2007. The net benefit included the release of $6.3 million in legal reserves and a $2.5 million charge for departure-related accelerated vesting of long-term incentive awards.
Discontinued Operations
RSG, the company’s printing business, reported a third quarter net loss of $38.6 million, which includes a $36.0 million impairment charge, net of tax. In light of Janus’ decision to sell its printing
3
and fulfillment operations, the company evaluated RSG’s assets, resulting in a write-down of a portion of goodwill, certain intangibles and fixed assets.
Capital and Liquidity

Notes:
(1) Closed to new investors. (2)Rating is for this share class only; other classes may have different performance characteristics.
For each fund with at least a three-year history, Morningstar calculates a Morningstar Rating TM 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.)
