For shareholders of INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund II |
[January [ ], 2015]
Dear Shareholder:
We are writing to inform you, as a shareholder of INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund II (formerly named INTECH U.S. Growth Fund), that the Trustees of your Fund have approved Janus’ and INTECH’s proposal to merge the Fund into INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund (formerly named INTECH U.S. Value Fund), effective on or about [ , 2015]. As described in the enclosed Prospectus/Information Statement, each Fund recently transitioned to INTECH’s managed volatility investment strategy and the merger is designed to streamline the Janus mutual funds platform by consolidating similar funds. Effective December 17, 2014, each Fund’s name, principal investment strategies, and benchmark index were changed to reflect a managed volatility investment strategy that seeks to provide returns in excess of the Fund’s benchmark index and to reduce or “manage” portfolio volatility to a level less than such benchmark index. As a result of these changes, the Funds now have identical investment strategies and risks, and the same benchmark index, and each Fund continues to have an investment objective of long-term growth of capital. The merger will provide you with the opportunity to invest in a larger fund that has the potential for lower expense ratios because of its increased size. The Trustees of your Fund have unanimously approved the merger.
The merger does not require shareholder approval, and you are not being asked to vote. As of the merger closing date, you will automatically receive the same class of shares of INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund as you currently hold in INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund II. You do not need to take any action related to the merger as your shares will be transferred automatically on the merger date. The merger is expected to qualify as a tax-free reorganization for federal income tax purposes, so you should not realize a tax gain or loss as a direct result of the merger, nor will you pay expenses associated with the merger.
Enclosed you will find a Prospectus/Information Statement with additional details describing the merger. If you have additional questions, please contact your financial advisor/intermediary for assistance, or call a Janus representative at 1-800-525-0020.
We value the trust and confidence you have placed with us and look forward to continuing our relationship with you.

by and in exchange for shares of beneficial interest of
INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund

INTRODUCTION
This Prospectus/Information Statement is being furnished to shareholders of INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund II (formerly named INTECH U.S. Growth Fund) in connection with an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (the “Plan”), pursuant to which INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund II (“your Fund” or the “Acquired Fund”) will merge into INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund (together with your Fund, the “Funds” and each, a “Fund”). Under the Plan, you will receive shares of INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund approximately equal in value to your holdings in the Acquired Fund as of the closing date of the reorganization, referred to herein as the “Merger.” After the Merger is complete, your Fund will be liquidated. The Merger is expected to be completed on or about [ , 2015] (the “Closing Date”).
The Merger is designed to streamline the Janus mutual funds platform by consolidating similar funds. Recently, beginning on December 17, 2014, the Funds’ names, principal investment strategies, and benchmark indices were changed to reflect a new managed volatility investment strategy, which seeks to provide returns in excess of the Funds’ benchmark index and to reduce or “manage” portfolio volatility to a level less than such benchmark index. As a result of these changes, the Funds now have identical investment strategies and risks, and the same benchmark index. The Funds also have the same management fee structure and investment personnel, and same investment objective of long-term growth of capital, none of which will change as a result of the Merger.
After careful consideration, the Board of Trustees of the Janus Funds determined that the Merger is in the best interests of your Fund and of INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund. The Board considered many factors in making this determination, which are summarized below in the Q&A section and discussed in detail in this Prospectus/Information Statement. Among the factors considered, the Board noted that the Merger will permit you to continue to invest in a fund that pursues an identical investment objective and investment strategies as your Fund and to do so in the context of a larger fund with expense ratios that are expected to be the same as, or lower than, both your Fund and INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund prior to the Merger. In addition, the Board considered that Janus Capital Management LLC (“Janus Capital” or “Janus”) is paying all costs of the Merger, that the Merger is expected to be a tax-free reorganization for federal income tax purposes, and the belief of Janus Capital that a combined fund will have the potential for better growth prospects.
Shares of the Funds have not been approved or disapproved by the Securities and Exchange Commission nor has the Securities and Exchange Commission passed upon the adequacy of this Prospectus/Information Statement. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.
Your Fund and INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund are each a series of Janus Investment Fund (the “Trust”), an open-end, registered management investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust. INTECH Investment Management LLC (“INTECH”) is responsible for the day-to-day management of each Fund’s investment portfolio subject to the general oversight of Janus Capital. Janus Capital provides certain administration and other services and is responsible for other business affairs of each Fund. After the Merger, Janus Capital will remain the investment adviser of INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund, INTECH will remain the subadviser of INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund, and the Fund’s investment
personnel will continue as the investment personnel of INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund. As one of the larger mutual fund sponsors in the United States, Janus sponsored [ ] mutual funds and had approximately [$ ] billion in mutual fund assets under management as of [ , 2014.] INTECH sponsored [ ] mutual funds and had approximately [$ ] billion in mutual fund assets under management as of [ , 2014.] The Merger is expected to offer shareholders the potential for increased operational efficiencies while giving them continued access to Janus’ and INTECH’s experience and resources in managing mutual funds.
This Prospectus/Information Statement, which you should read carefully and retain for future reference, sets forth the information that you should know about your Fund, INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund, and the Merger. This Prospectus/Information Statement is being mailed to you on or about [ , 2015].

PROSPECTUS/INFORMATION STATEMENT

TABLE OF CONTENTS

This Prospectus/Information Statement provides a brief overview of the key features and other matters typically of concern to shareholders affected by a merger between mutual funds. These responses are qualified in their entirety by the remainder of this Prospectus/Information Statement, which you should read carefully. It contains additional information and further details regarding the Merger. The description of the Merger is qualified by reference to the full text of the Plan, a form of which is attached as Appendix A.
Q. | What is happening? |
A. | The Merger is part of a restructuring that is designed to streamline the Janus mutual funds platform. On September 17, 2014, the Board of Trustees of the Trust (the “Board of Trustees,” the “Board,” or the “Trustees”) approved changes to the investment strategies, names, and benchmark indices of the Funds to reflect a new managed volatility investment strategy. The managed volatility strategy seeks to reduce or “manage” portfolio volatility to a level less than each Fund’s benchmark index. Specifically, the managed volatility strategy seeks, over time, returns above each Fund’s benchmark index, with absolute volatility lower than the benchmark index, as described below. In approving these changes, the Board concluded, among other things, that moving to a managed volatility strategy could assist the Funds in growing in size over time and could benefit shareholders. As a result of these changes, which became effective on December 17, 2014, the Funds have identical investment strategies and risks, and the same benchmark index. |
At a meeting held on November 5, 2014, the Board approved the Plan, which authorizes the Merger of your Fund with and into INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund, with INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund being the surviving entity. The Merger is part of an effort to streamline the number of funds on the Janus mutual funds platform. Your Fund and INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund are each a series of the Trust and are managed by INTECH subject to the general oversight of Janus Capital. The Board of Trustees concluded that the Merger is in the best interest of both Funds, and that the interests of shareholders of the Funds will not be diluted as a result of the Merger. You are receiving this Prospectus/Information Statement because you are a shareholder of the Acquired Fund and will be impacted by the Merger. This Prospectus/Information Statement is being provided to you for informational purposes only, and you need not take any action with regard to the Merger.
Q. | What did the Board consider in approving the Merger? |
A. | In approving the Merger, the Board considered a number of factors, including the following: |
· | The Merger will permit you to continue to invest in a fund that pursues an identical investment objective and investment strategies as your Fund and to do so in the context of a larger fund with expense ratios that are expected to be lower than or the same as both your Fund and INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund prior to the Merger. |
· | The investment personnel that currently manage your Fund and INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund will continue to manage INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund after the Merger. |
· | Comparative performance of the Funds over various time periods. |
· | The Merger is expected to be a tax-free reorganization for federal income tax purposes. |
· | The structure of the Merger. |
· | The impact of the Merger on each Fund’s tax-loss carryforward positions. |
· | Janus Capital is paying all costs associated with the Merger. |
· | Janus Capital will benefit from greater operational efficiencies by overseeing a single Fund versus two separate Funds with identical investment strategies, policies, and risks. |
· | The Merger is designed to streamline the number of INTECH subadvised Funds within the Trust, encourage a more focused marketing and distribution effort for the combined fund, reduce investor confusion, and generally make INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund a more attractive vehicle to the investing public, which Janus Capital believes could provide the potential for better growth prospects as compared to the two Funds operating separately. |
Q. | What is happening in the Merger? |
A. | All or substantially all of the assets of your Fund will be transferred to INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund solely in exchange for shares of INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund with a value approximately equal to the value of your |
1 |
Fund’s assets net of liabilities, and the assumption by INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund of all liabilities of your Fund. Immediately following the transfer, the shares of INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund received by your Fund will be distributed pro rata to you as a shareholder of record as of the Closing Date (on or about [ , 2015]). After the Merger is completed, your Fund will be liquidated. The Merger is conditioned upon receipt of an opinion of counsel substantially to the effect that the Merger qualifies as a tax-free reorganization for federal income tax purposes, and any other conditions as outlined in the Plan.
Q. | Will I own the same number of shares of INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund as I currently own of the Acquired Fund? |
A. | Immediately after the Closing Date, you will own a number of full and fractional shares of INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund approximately equivalent in dollar value to your shares held in the Acquired Fund as of the close of business on the Closing Date. You will receive the same class of shares of INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund as the class of shares of the Acquired Fund you own as of the Merger. However, the number of shares you receive will depend on the relative net asset values of the shares of your Fund and INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund as of the close of trading on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) on the business day prior to the closing of the Merger. Therefore, although the dollar value of your shares will be approximately the same, the number of shares you own may change. |
Q. | How do the Funds’ investment objectives, strategies, and risks compare? |
A. | As discussed above, in connection with the Funds’ transition to a new managed volatility strategy beginning on December 17, 2014, the Funds’ principal investment strategies and benchmark indices were changed to reflect this new investment approach. As a result of these changes, the Funds have identical investment strategies and risks, and the same benchmark index. Each Fund seeks long-term growth of capital by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets in U.S. common stocks from the universe of the Russell 1000® Index, utilizing INTECH’s mathematical investment process, applying a managed volatility approach. The Funds seek to produce returns in excess of the Russell 1000® Index, but with lower absolute volatility. In this context, absolute volatility refers to the variation in the returns of each Fund and the benchmark index as measured by standard deviation. This range is expected to be closer to 0% in less volatile markets and will increase as market conditions become more volatile. Each Fund’s principal risks include market risk, investment process risk, portfolio turnover risk, and securities lending risk. |
Prior to December 17, 2014, the Funds had different names, principal investment strategies, and benchmark indices. Your Fund’s name was INTECH U.S. Growth Fund and it invested, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets in U.S. common stocks from the universe of the Russell 1000® Growth Index, utilizing INTECH’s mathematical process, but without applying a managed volatility approach. Similarly, prior to December 17, 2014, INTECH Managed Volatility Fund’s name was INTECH U.S. Value Fund and it invested, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets in U.S. common stocks from the universe of the Russell 1000® Value Index, utilizing INTECH’s mathematical process, but without applying a managed volatility approach.
Q. | How do the Funds compare in size? |
A. | As of September 30, 2014, your Fund’s net assets were approximately $___________, and INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund’s net assets were approximately $___________. The asset size of each Fund fluctuates on a daily basis, and the asset size of INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund after the Merger may be larger or smaller than the combined assets of the Funds as of [ , 2014]. More current total net asset information is available at janus.com/advisor/mutual-funds. |
Q. | Will the Merger result in a higher management fee rate for current Acquired Fund shareholders? |
A. | No. Each Fund currently has the same management fee structure, which will not change as a result of the Merger. Pro forma fee, expense, and other financial information is included in this Prospectus/Information Statement. |
2 |
Q. | Will the Merger result in higher Fund expense ratios? |
A. | Fund expense ratios are expected to be lower than or the same as those of your Fund after the Merger. The estimated fees and expenses are shown in the pro forma fee, expense, and financial information included later in this Prospectus/Information Statement. |
Q. | What are the federal income tax consequences of the Merger? |
A. | The Merger is expected to qualify as a tax-free reorganization for federal income tax purposes (under section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended) and will not take place unless counsel provides an opinion substantially to that effect. Shareholders should not recognize any capital gain or loss as a direct result of the Merger. If you choose to redeem or exchange your shares before or after the Merger, you may realize a taxable gain or loss; therefore, consider consulting a tax adviser before doing so. Prior to the Closing Date, the Acquired Fund may make a distribution to its shareholders, which together with all previous distributions, will have the effect of distributing to shareholders at least all its net investment income and realized net capital gains (after reduction by any available capital loss carryforwards), if any, through the Closing Date of the Merger. This distribution will be taxable to shareholders who are subject to federal income tax and may include gains resulting from the sale of portfolio assets related to the transitioning of your Fund’s portfolio. |
Q. | Will the services provided by Janus Capital or INTECH change? |
A. | No. INTECH currently manages both your Fund and INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund and will continue as the subadviser, with Janus Capital continuing as the investment adviser and administrator, of INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund following the Merger. The custodian, transfer agent, and distributor are the same for the Funds and will not change as a result of the Merger. You will also have the same purchase and redemption privileges from INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund as you currently enjoy. Please consult your financial intermediary for information on any services provided by them to the Funds. |
Q. | Will there be any sales load, commission, or other transactional fee in connection with the Merger? |
A. | No. There will be no sales load, commission, or other transactional fee in connection with the Merger. The full and fractional value of shares of your Fund will be exchanged for full and fractional corresponding shares of INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund having approximately equal value, without any sales load, commission or other transactional fee being imposed. |
Q. | Can I still add to my existing Acquired Fund account until the Merger? |
A. | Yes. You may continue to make additional investments in the Acquired Fund until the Closing Date (anticipated to be on or about [ , 2015]) unless the Board of Trustees determines to limit future investments to ensure a smooth transition of shareholder accounts or for any other reason. Effective at the close of trading on [ , 2014], the Acquired Fund closed to new investors. |
Q. | Will I need to open an account in INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund prior to the Merger? |
A. | No. An account will be set up in your name, and your shares of the Acquired Fund will automatically be converted to corresponding shares of INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund. You will receive confirmation of this transaction following the Merger. |
Q. | Will my cost basis for federal income tax purposes change as a result of the Merger? |
A. | Your total cost basis for federal income tax purposes is not expected to change as a result of the Merger. However, since the number of shares you hold after the Merger may be different than the number of shares you held prior to the Merger, your cost basis per share may change. Since the Merger will be treated as a tax-free reorganization for federal income tax purposes, you should not recognize any capital gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a direct result of the Merger. |
3 |
Q. | Will either Fund pay fees associated with the Merger? |
A. | The Funds will not pay any fees associated with the Merger. Janus Capital will bear those fees. |
Q. | When will the Merger take place? |
A. | The Merger will occur on or about [ , 2015]. After completion of the Merger, your financial intermediary, plan sponsor, or Janus (if you hold Class I Shares directly with the Fund) is responsible for sending you a confirmation statement reflecting your new Fund account number and number of shares owned. |
Q. | What if I want to exchange my shares into another Janus fund prior to the Merger? |
A. | You may exchange your shares into another Janus fund before the Closing Date (on or about [ , 2015]) in accordance with your pre-existing exchange privileges by contacting your plan sponsor, broker-dealer, or financial intermediary or by contacting a Janus representative at 1-800-525-0020. If you choose to exchange your shares of the Acquired Fund for another Janus fund, your request will be treated as a normal exchange of shares and will be a taxable transaction unless your shares are held in a tax-deferred account, such as an individual retirement account (“IRA”). Exchanges may be subject to minimum investment requirements. Any applicable contingent deferred sales charges charged to Class A and Class C Shares will be waived for exchanges and redemptions through the date of the Merger. |
Q. | Why are shareholders not being asked to vote on the Merger? |
A. | The Funds’ Amended and Restated Agreement and Declaration of Trust dated March 18, 2003, as amended from time to time (“Trust Instrument”) permits mergers between series of the Trust to occur without seeking a shareholder vote provided that certain conditions are met. The conditions permitting the Merger to occur without seeking a shareholder vote have been met. |
This section provides a summary of each Fund, including but not limited to, comparative information regarding each Fund’s investment objective, primary investment strategies, restrictions, fees, and historical performance. Please note that this is only a brief discussion and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete information contained herein. There is no assurance that a Fund will achieve its stated objective.
Both Funds seek long-term growth of capital.
Comparison of Fees and Expenses
The types of expenses currently paid by each class of shares of your Fund are the same types of expenses to be paid by the corresponding share classes of INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund. Currently, the Funds have substantially similar investment advisory agreements and each pays the same investment advisory fee rate. The annual investment advisory fee rate payable under the advisory agreements for your Fund and INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund is currently 0.50% of each Fund’s average daily net assets. After the Merger, INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund will continue to pay the annual investment advisory fee rate of 0.50%. Janus Capital, and not the Funds, pays INTECH a subadvisory fee at the annual rate of 50% of the advisory fee rate paid by the Fund to Janus Capital.
Current and Pro Forma Fees and Expenses
The following tables compare the fees and expenses you may bear directly or indirectly as an investor in your Fund versus INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund, and show the projected (“pro forma”) estimated fees and expenses of INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund, calculated assuming the Merger had occurred on June 30, 2014. Fees and expenses shown for your Fund and INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund were determined based on each Fund’s average net assets as of the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014. The pro forma fees and expenses are estimated in good faith by Janus Capital and are hypothetical, and do not reflect any change in expense ratios resulting from a change in assets under management since June 30, 2014 for either Fund. More current total net asset information is available at janus.com/advisor/mutual-funds. It is important for you to know that a decline in a Fund’s average net assets during the current fiscal year and after the Merger, as a result of market volatility or
4 |
other factors, could cause the Fund’s expense ratio to be higher than the fees and expenses shown, which means you could pay more if you buy or hold shares of the Fund. The Funds will not pay any fees of the Merger.
Annual Fund Operating Expenses
Annual Fund Operating Expenses are paid out of a Fund’s assets and include fees for portfolio management and administrative services, including recordkeeping, accounting or subaccounting, and other shareholder services. You do not pay these fees directly, but as the examples in the table below show, these costs are borne indirectly by all shareholders.
The Annual Fund Operating Expenses shown in the table below represent annualized expenses for your Fund and for INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund, as well as those estimated for your Fund on a pro forma basis, assuming consummation of the Merger, for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014.
Expense Limitations
“Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses After Fee Waiver” shown in the table below include any expense limitations agreed to by Janus Capital. Currently, through November 1, 2015, pursuant to a contract between Janus Capital and your Fund, Janus Capital reduces its annual investment advisory fee rate paid by your Fund by the amount by which the total annual fund operating expenses allocated to any class of the Fund exceed 0.83% of average daily net assets for the fiscal year (after reduction of any applicable share class level expenses). For purposes of this waiver, operating expenses do not include the distribution and shareholder servicing (12b-1) fees (applicable to Class A Shares, Class C Shares, and Class S Shares), administrative services fees payable pursuant to the Transfer Agency Agreement (including out-of-pocket expenses), or items not normally considered operating expenses, such as acquired fund fees and expenses, interest, dividends, taxes, brokerage commissions and extraordinary expenses (including, but not limited to, legal claims and liabilities and litigation costs, and any indemnification related thereto). Janus Capital has a similar expense limitation agreement for INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund whereby Janus Capital reduces its annual investment advisory fee rate paid by INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund by the amount by which the total annual fund operating expenses allocated to any class of the Fund exceed 0.79% of average daily net assets for the fiscal year (after reduction of any applicable share class level expenses and excluding the same expenses noted above). During the period shown in the table below, INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund’s total annual fund operating expenses, after reduction of any applicable share class level expenses, did not exceed 0.79% of average daily net assets. Therefore, the Fee Waiver amounts shown for INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund pre- and post-Merger are 0.00%.
Changes to expenses and asset levels of both your Fund and INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund at the time of the Merger could trigger application of INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund’s 0.79% expense limit, resulting in a possible reduction of other expenses for certain classes and the investment advisory fee rate payable to Janus Capital by INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund.

(1) | All expenses are shown without the effect of expense offset arrangements. Pursuant to such arrangements, credits realized as a result of uninvested cash balances are used to reduce custodian and transfer agent expenses. |
(2) | The “Management Fee” is the management fee rate paid by each Fund to Janus under each Investment Advisory Agreement. Refer to the “Management Expenses” section in this Prospectus/Information Statement for additional information, with further description in the Funds’ Statement of Additional Information, which are incorporated by reference herein. |
(3) | If applicable to the share class, because 12b-1 fees are charged as an ongoing fee, over time the fee will increase the cost of your investment and may cost you more than paying other types of sales charges. Distribution/Service (12b-1) Fees include a shareholder servicing fee of up to 0.25% for Class C Shares. |
8 |
(4) | “Other Expenses” for Class A Shares, Class C Shares, and Class I Shares may include administrative fees charged by intermediaries for the provision of administrative services, including recordkeeping, subaccounting, order processing for omnibus or networked accounts, or other shareholder services provided on behalf of shareholders of the Funds. “Other Expenses” for Class S Shares and Class T Shares include an administrative services fee of up to 0.25% of the average daily net assets of each class to compensate Janus Services LLC (“Janus Services”), the Funds’ transfer agent, for providing, or arranging for the provision by intermediaries of, administrative services, including recordkeeping, subaccounting, order processing for omnibus or networked accounts, or other shareholder services provided on behalf of retirement plan participants, pension plan participants, or other underlying investors investing through institutional channels. “Other Expenses” for all classes may include reimbursement to Janus of its out-of-pocket costs for services as administrator and to Janus Services of its out-of-pocket costs for serving as transfer agent and providing, or arranging by others the provision of, servicing to shareholders. |
(5) | “Acquired Fund” refers to any underlying fund (including, but not limited to, exchange-traded funds) in which a fund invests or has invested during the period. Acquired fund fees and expenses are indirect expenses a Fund incurs as a result of investing in shares of an underlying fund. A Fund’s “Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses” may not correlate to the “ratio of gross expenses to average net assets” presented in the Financial Highlights tables because that ratio includes only the direct operating expenses incurred by the Fund, not the indirect costs of investing in Acquired Funds. Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses are based on the estimated expenses each Fund expects to incur. If applicable, or unless otherwise indicated in a Fund’s Fees and Expenses table, such amounts are less than 0.01% and are included in the Fund’s “Other Expenses.” |
(6) | Currently, through at least November 1, 2015, Janus Capital has contractually agreed to waive its investment advisory fee and/or reimburse Fund expenses to the extent that each Fund’s total annual fund operating expenses (excluding the distribution and shareholder servicing fees – applicable to Class A Shares, Class C Shares, and Class S Shares, administrative services fees payable pursuant to the Transfer Agency Agreement, brokerage commissions, interest, dividends, taxes, acquired fund fees and expenses, and extraordinary expenses) exceed 0.83% for your Fund and 0.79% for INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund. The contractual waiver may be terminated or modified prior to this date only at the discretion of the Board of Trustees. |
(7) | Assumes the payment of the maximum initial sales charge on Class A Shares at the time of purchase for the Funds. The sales charge may be waived or reduced for certain investors, which would reduce the expenses for those investors. |
(8) | A contingent deferred sales charge of up to 1.00% may be imposed on certain redemptions of Class A Shares bought without an initial sales charge and then redeemed within 12 months of purchase. The contingent deferred sales charge is not reflected in the Examples. |
(9) | A contingent deferred sales charge of 1.00% generally applies on Class C Shares redeemed within 12 months of purchase. The contingent deferred sales charge may be waived for certain investors, as described in Appendix C. |
(10) | Contingent deferred sales charge is not applicable. |
Each Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or “turns over” its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover rate may indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual fund operating expenses or in the Examples, affect the Funds’ performance. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014, your Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 110% of the average value of its portfolio and INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 150% of the average value of its portfolio.
Comparison of Principal Investment Strategies
In connection with the Funds’ transition to a new managed volatility strategy beginning on December 17, 2014, the principal investment strategies and benchmark indices of the Funds were changed, resulting in their becoming identical. The following table summarizes the Funds’ principal investment strategies, as set forth more fully in the Prospectuses and Statement of Additional Information relating to the Funds.
Both Funds | |
Principal Investment Strategies |
The Funds invest, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of their net assets in U.S. common stocks from the universe of the Russell 1000® Index, utilizing INTECH's mathematical investment process, applying a managed volatility approach. The Russell 1000® Index is an unmanaged index that measures the performance of the large-cap segment of the U.S. equity universe. The Funds seek to produce returns in excess of the Russell 1000® Index, but with lower absolute volatility than the benchmark index. The Funds seek to generate such excess returns with absolute volatility that can range from approximately 0% to 40% lower than the Russell 1000® Index. In this context, absolute volatility refers to the variation in the returns of each Fund and the benchmark index as measured by standard deviation. This range is expected to be closer to 0% in less volatile markets and will increase as market conditions become more volatile. |
9 |
Each Fund pursues its investment objective by applying a mathematical investment process to construct an investment portfolio from the universe of stocks within the named benchmark index. The goal of this process is to combine stocks that individually have higher relative volatility, lower absolute volatility, and lower correlations with each other in an effort to reduce each Fund’s absolute volatility, while still generating returns that exceed the named benchmark index over a full market cycle (a time period representing a significant market decline and recovery). Although each Fund may underperform its named benchmark index in sharply rising markets, this strategy seeks to participate in normal rising markets and lessen losses in down markets. In applying this strategy, INTECH establishes target proportions of its holdings from stocks within the named benchmark index using an optimization process designed to determine the most effective weightings of each stock in each Fund. Once INTECH determines such proportions and each Fund’s investments are selected, each Fund is periodically rebalanced to the set target proportions and re-optimized. The rebalancing techniques used by INTECH may result in a higher portfolio turnover rate compared to a “buy and hold” fund strategy. |
The Funds have identical principal risk factors. The following summarizes the principal risks of investing in either of the Funds.
· | Market Risk. The value of the Fund’s portfolio may decrease if the value of an individual company or security, or multiple companies or securities, in the portfolio decreases. Further, regardless of how well individual companies or securities perform, the value of the Fund’s portfolio could also decrease if there are deteriorating economic or market conditions. It is important to understand that the value of your investment may fall, sometimes sharply, in response to changes in the market and you could lose money. |
· | Investment Process Risk. The focus on managed volatility may keep the Fund from achieving excess returns over the named benchmark index. In this regard, INTECH’s managed volatility strategy may underperform the Fund’s named benchmark index during certain periods of up markets, and in particular, most likely will underperform the benchmark index in sharply rising markets, and may not achieve the desired level of protection in down markets. As INTECH’s mathematical investment process has evolved, it has experienced periods of both underperformance and outperformance relative to an identified benchmark index. Even when the proprietary mathematical investment process is working appropriately, INTECH expects that there will be periods of underperformance relative to the benchmark index. On an occasional basis, INTECH makes changes to its mathematical investment process that do not require shareholder notice. These changes may result in changes to the portfolio, might not provide the intended results, and may adversely impact the Fund’s performance. |
· | Real Estate Securities Risk. The Fund’s performance may be affected by the risks associated with investments in real estate related companies. The value of real estate-related companies’ securities is sensitive to changes in real estate values and rental income, property taxes, interest rates, tax and regulatory requirements, supply and demand, and the management skill and creditworthiness of the company. Investments in real estate investment trusts (“REITs”) involve the same risks as other real estate investments. In addition, a REIT could fail to qualify for tax-free pass-through of its income under the Internal Revenue Code or fail to maintain its exemption from registration under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, which could produce adverse economic consequences for the REIT and its investors, including the Fund. |
· | Portfolio Turnover Risk. Increased portfolio turnover may result in higher costs, which may have a negative effect on the Fund’s performance. In addition, higher portfolio turnover may result in the acceleration of capital gains and the recognition of greater levels of short-term capital gains, which are taxed at ordinary federal income tax rates when distributed to shareholders. |
· | Securities Lending Risk. The Fund may seek to earn additional income through lending its securities to certain qualified broker-dealers and institutions. There is the risk that when portfolio securities are lent, the securities may not be returned on a timely basis, and the Fund may experience delays and costs in recovering the security or gaining access to the collateral provided to the Fund to collateralize the loan. If the Fund is unable to recover a security on loan, the Fund may use the collateral to purchase replacement securities in the market. There is a risk that the value of the collateral could decrease below the cost of the replacement security by the time the replacement investment is made, resulting in a loss to the Fund. |

An investment in a Fund is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency.
Comparison of Fund Performance
Your Fund
The following information provides some indication of the risks of investing in your Fund showing how your Fund’s performance has varied over time. Class S Shares, Class A Shares, Class C Shares, and Class I Shares of the Fund commenced operations on July 6, 2009, after the reorganization of each corresponding class of shares of Janus Adviser INTECH Risk-Managed Growth Fund (“JAD predecessor fund”) into each respective share class of the Fund. Class T Shares of the Fund commenced operations on July 6, 2009.
· | The performance shown for Class S Shares for periods prior to July 6, 2009, reflects the historical performance of the JAD predecessor fund’s Class S Shares prior to the reorganization, calculated using the fees and expenses of the JAD predecessor fund’s Class S Shares, net of any applicable fee and expense limitations or waivers. |
· | The performance shown for Class A Shares reflects the performance of the JAD predecessor fund’s Class A Shares from September 30, 2004 to July 6, 2009 (prior to the reorganization), calculated using the fees and expenses of Class A Shares of the JAD predecessor fund, net of any applicable fee and expense limitations or waivers. Performance shown for certain periods prior to September 30, 2004 reflects the historical performance of the JAD predecessor fund’s Class S Shares (formerly named Class I Shares), calculated using the fees and expenses of Class S Shares of the JAD predecessor fund, net of any applicable fee and expense limitations or waivers. |
· | The performance shown for Class C Shares for periods prior to July 6, 2009, reflects the historical performance of the JAD predecessor fund’s Class C Shares prior to the reorganization, calculated using the fees and expenses of the JAD predecessor fund’s Class C Shares, net of any applicable fee and expense limitations or waivers. |
· | The performance shown for Class I Shares reflects the performance of the JAD predecessor fund’s Class I Shares from November 28, 2005 to July 6, 2009 (prior to the reorganization), calculated using the fees and expenses of Class I Shares of the JAD predecessor fund, net of any applicable fee and expense limitations or waivers. Performance shown for certain periods prior to November 28, 2005 reflects the historical performance of the JAD predecessor fund’s Class S Shares (formerly named Class I Shares), calculated using the fees and expenses of Class S Shares of the JAD predecessor fund, net of any applicable fee and expense limitations or waivers. |
· | The performance shown for Class T Shares for periods prior to July 6, 2009, reflects the historical performance of the JAD predecessor fund’s Class S Shares prior to the reorganization, calculated using the fees and expenses of Class S Shares, net of any applicable fee and expense limitations or waivers. |
· | The performance shown for Class N Shares reflects the historical performance of the Fund’s Class S Shares, calculated using the fees and expenses of Class S Shares, net of any applicable fee and expense limitations or waivers. If Class N Shares of the Fund had been available during the periods shown, the performance may have been different. |
If Class A Shares, Class I Shares, and Class T Shares of the Fund had been available during periods prior to July 6, 2009, the performance shown for each respective share class may have been different. The performance shown for periods following the Fund’s commencement of Class S Shares, Class A Shares, Class C Shares, Class I Shares, and Class T Shares reflects the fees and expenses of each respective share class, net of any applicable fee and expense limitations or waivers.
The bar chart depicts the change in performance from year to year during the periods indicated. The bar chart figures do not include any applicable sales charges that an investor may pay when they buy or sell Class A Shares or Class C Shares of the Fund. If sales charges were included, the returns would be lower. The table compares the Fund’s average annual returns for the periods indicated to broad-based securities market indices. The indices are not actively managed and are not available for direct investment. All figures assume reinvestment of dividends and distributions. For certain periods, the Fund’s performance reflects the effect of expense waivers. Without the effect of these expense waivers, the performance shown would have been lower.
Your Fund’s past performance (before and after taxes) does not necessarily indicate how the Fund will perform in the future. Updated performance information is available at janus.com/advisor/mutual-funds or by calling 1-877-335-2687.

INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund
The following information provides some indication of the risks of investing in INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund by showing how the Fund’s performance has varied over time. Class I Shares, Class A Shares, Class C Shares, and Class S Shares of the Fund commenced operations on July 6, 2009, after the reorganization of each corresponding class of shares of Janus Adviser INTECH Risk- Managed Value Fund (“JAD predecessor fund”) into each respective share class of the Fund. Class T Shares of the Fund commenced operations on July 6, 2009. Class N Shares of the Fund commenced operations on October 28, 2014.
· | The performance shown for Class I Shares, Class A Shares, Class C Shares, and Class S Shares for periods prior to July 6, 2009, reflects the historical performance of the JAD predecessor fund’s Class I Shares, Class A Shares, Class C Shares, and Class S Shares prior to the reorganization, calculated using the fees and expenses of each respective share class of the JAD predecessor fund, net of any applicable fee and expense limitations or waivers. |
· | The performance shown for Class T Shares for periods prior to July 6, 2009, reflects the historical performance of the JAD predecessor fund’s Class I Shares prior to the reorganization, calculated using the fees and expenses of Class T Shares, without the effect of any fee and expense limitations or waivers. If Class T Shares of the Fund had been available during periods prior to July 6, 2009, the performance shown may have been different. |
· | The performance shown for Class N Shares reflects the performance of the Fund’s Class I Shares from July 6, 2009 to December 31, 2013, calculated using the fees and expenses of Class I Shares, net of any applicable fee and expense limitations or waivers. The performance shown for Class N Shares for periods prior to July 6, 2009, reflects the historical performance of the JAD predecessor fund’s Class I Shares prior to the reorganization, calculated using the fees and expenses of Class I Shares of the JAD predecessor fund, net of any applicable fee and expense limitations or waivers. If Class N Shares of the Fund had been available during periods prior to December 31, 2013, the performance shown may have been different. |
The performance shown for periods following the Fund’s commencement of Class I Shares, Class A Shares, Class C Shares, Class S Shares, and Class T Shares reflects the fees and expenses of each respective share class, net of any applicable fee and expense limitations or waivers.
The bar chart depicts the change in performance from year to year during the periods indicated. The bar chart figures do not include any applicable sales charges that an investor may pay when they buy or sell Class A Shares or Class C Shares of the Fund. If sales charges were included, the returns would be lower. The table compares the Fund’s average annual returns for the periods indicated to broad-based securities market indices. The indices are not actively managed and are not available for direct investment. All figures assume reinvestment of dividends and distributions. For certain periods, the Fund’s performance reflects the effect of expense waivers. Without the effect of these expense waivers, the performance shown would have been lower.
INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund’s past performance (before and after taxes) does not necessarily indicate how the Fund will perform in the future. Updated performance information is available at janus.com/advisor/mutual-funds or by calling 1-877-335-2687.

For your Fund, after-tax returns are calculated using distributions for the Fund’s Class S Shares for periods following July 6, 2009; and for the JAD predecessor fund’s Class S Shares (formerly named Class I Shares) for periods prior to July 6, 2009. For INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund, after-tax returns are calculated using distributions for the Fund’s Class I Shares for periods following July 6, 2009; and for the JAD predecessor fund’s Class I Shares for periods prior to July 6, 2009. After-tax returns are calculated using the historically highest individual federal marginal income tax rates and do not reflect the impact of state and local taxes. Actual after-tax returns depend on your individual tax situation and may differ from those shown in the preceding tables. The after-tax return information shown above does not apply to Fund shares held through a tax-deferred account, such as a 401(k) plan or an IRA.
After-tax returns are only shown for Class S Shares of your Fund and Class I Shares of INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund. After-tax returns for the other classes of shares will vary from those shown due to varying sales charges (as applicable), fees, and expenses among the classes.

With the exception of certain Class I Shares shareholders, purchases, exchanges, and redemptions can generally be made only through institutional channels, such as financial intermediaries and retirement platforms. Class I Shares may be purchased directly with the Funds in certain circumstances as outlined in Appendix C. You should contact your financial intermediary or refer to your plan documents for information on how to invest in a Fund. Requests must be received in good order by a Fund or its agents (financial intermediary or plan sponsor, if applicable) prior to the close of the regular trading session of the New York Stock Exchange in order to receive that day’s net asset value. For additional information, refer to “Purchases,” “Exchanges,” and/or “Redemptions” in Appendix C.
Each Fund’s distributions are taxable, and will be taxed as ordinary income or capital gains, unless you are investing through a tax-deferred arrangement, such as a 401(k) plan or an individual retirement account.
Payments to Broker-Dealers and Other Financial Intermediaries
If you purchase shares of a Fund through a broker-dealer or other financial intermediary (such as a bank), the Fund and its related companies may pay the intermediary for the sale of Fund shares and related services. These payments may create a conflict of interest by influencing the broker-dealer or other intermediary and your salesperson to recommend the Fund over another investment or to recommend one share class over another.

The Plan sets forth the terms and conditions under which the Merger will be implemented. Significant provisions of the Plan are summarized below; however, this summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Plan, a form of which is attached hereto as Appendix A.
The Plan contemplates: (i) INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund’s acquisition of all or substantially all of the assets of your Fund in exchange solely for shares of INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund and the assumption by INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund of all of your Fund’s liabilities, if any, as of the Closing Date; (ii) the distribution on the Closing Date of those shares to you; and (iii) the complete liquidation of your Fund.
The value of your Fund’s assets to be acquired and the amount of its liabilities to be assumed by INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund and the net asset value (“NAV”) of a share of your Fund will be determined as of the close of regular trading on the NYSE on the Closing Date, after the declaration by your Fund of distributions, if any on the Closing Date, and will be determined in accordance with the valuation methodologies described in your Fund’s currently effective Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information (“SAI”). The Plan provides that Janus Capital will pay all of the fees of the Merger, including the costs and expenses incurred in the preparation and mailing of this Prospectus/Information Statement. The Funds will pay for any brokerage commissions, transaction costs or similar costs related to the Merger. The Closing Date is expected to be on or about [ , 2015].
As soon as practicable after the Closing Date, your Fund will distribute pro rata to its shareholders of record the shares of INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund it receives in the Merger, so that each shareholder of your Fund will receive a number of full and fractional shares of INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund approximately equal in value to his or her holdings in your Fund, and your Fund will be liquidated.
Such distribution will be accomplished by opening an account on the books of INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund in your name and by transferring to that account the shares of INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund previously credited to your account of the Acquired Fund on those books. Your account will be credited with the pro rata number of INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund’s shares due to you. All issued and outstanding shares of your Fund will simultaneously be canceled on the books of the Trust. Accordingly, immediately after the Merger, you will own shares of INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund that will be approximately equal to the value of your shares of the Acquired Fund as of the Closing Date. Any special options will automatically transfer to the new fund accounts.
The implementation of the Merger is subject to a number of conditions set forth in the Plan. The Plan requires receipt of a tax opinion substantially to the effect that, for federal income tax purposes, the Merger qualifies as a tax-free reorganization. The Plan may be terminated and the Merger abandoned at any time prior to the Closing Date by the Board of Trustees if the Trustees determine that the Merger is not in the best interests of the Funds’ shareholders. Please review the Plan carefully.
As discussed in the “Introduction,” the Merger is designed to facilitate the recent transition of the Funds to a new managed volatility strategy. Beginning on December 17, 2014, the Funds’ names, principal investment strategies, and benchmark indices were changed to reflect this new managed volatility investment strategy, which seeks to provide returns in excess of the Fund’s benchmark index and to reduce or “manage” portfolio volatility to a level less than each Fund’s benchmark index. As a result of these changes, the Funds now have identical investment strategies and risks, and the same benchmark index. Accordingly, the Merger will allow Janus to reorganize its mutual fund platform by consolidating similar Funds. Janus believes that these efforts will provide the potential for both meaningful short- and long-term benefits to Fund shareholders, including clearer product differentiation, a reduction in overlapping offerings, and potential for future growth. There is potential to increase operational efficiencies, including the potential to eliminate duplicative costs and other inefficiencies that can arise from having identical mutual funds in the same family of funds. Janus and its affiliates that provide services to the Funds expect to provide the same level of services to shareholders after the Merger.
At the meeting of the Board of Trustees of the Trust held on November 5, 2014, Janus met with the Trustees, none of whom are considered “interested persons” (as defined in the 1940 Act) (“Independent Trustees”), to discuss Janus’ and INTECH’s proposal to merge the Funds. The Independent Trustees also discussed this proposal and the Plan separately with their independent counsel. During the course of the meeting, the Trustees requested and considered such information as they deemed
18 |
relevant to their deliberations. At the November 5, 2014 meeting, the Independent Trustees approved the Plan after determining that (1) the Merger is in the best interests of your Fund and INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund; and (2) the Merger will not dilute the interests of existing shareholders of either Fund. In making these determinations, the Independent Trustees considered a number factors, including the following:
· | The Merger will permit you to continue to invest in a fund that pursues an identical investment objective and investment strategies as your Fund and to do so in the context of a larger fund with expense ratios that are expected to be lower than or the same as both your Fund and INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund prior to the Merger. |
· | The investment personnel that currently manage your Fund and INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund will continue to manage INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund after the Merger. |
· | Comparative performance of the Funds over various time periods. |
· | The Merger, for each Fund and its shareholders, is expected to be a tax-free reorganization for federal income tax purposes. |
· | The structure of the Merger. |
· | The impact of the Merger on each Fund’s tax-loss carryforward positions. |
· | Janus Capital is paying all costs associated with the Merger. |
· | Janus Capital will benefit from greater operational efficiencies by overseeing a single Fund versus two separate Funds with identical investment strategies, policies and risks. |
· | The Merger is designed to streamline the number of INTECH subadvised Funds within the Trust, encourage a more focused marketing and distribution effort for the combined fund, reduce investor confusion, and generally make INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund a more attractive vehicle to the investing public, which Janus Capital believes could provide the potential for better growth prospects as compared to the two Funds operating separately. |
Federal Income Tax Consequences
As a condition to the Merger, the Trust will receive a tax opinion from Vedder Price P.C., counsel to the Funds, (which opinion will be based on certain factual representations and certain customary assumptions and exclusions) substantially to the effect that, on the basis of the existing provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder and current administrative and judicial interpretations thereof, for federal income tax purposes:
· | the transfer by the Acquired Fund of substantially all its assets to INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund solely in exchange for shares of INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund and the assumption by INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund of all the liabilities of the Acquired Fund, followed by the pro rata, by class, distribution of all the shares of INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund received by the Acquired Fund to the Acquired Fund shareholders in complete liquidation of the Acquired Fund as soon as practicable thereafter, will constitute a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code, and INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund and the Acquired Fund will each be a “party to a reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(b) of the Code with respect to the reorganization; |
· | no gain or loss will be recognized by INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund upon the receipt of substantially all the assets of the Acquired Fund solely in exchange for shares of INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund and the assumption by INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund of all the liabilities of the Acquired Fund; |
· | no gain or loss will be recognized by the Acquired Fund upon the transfer of substantially all the Acquired Fund’s assets to INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund solely in exchange for shares of INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund and the assumption by INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund of all the liabilities of the Acquired Fund or upon the distribution (whether actual or constructive) of the INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund shares so received to the Acquired Fund shareholders solely in exchange for such shareholders’ shares of the Acquired Fund in complete liquidation of the Acquired Fund; |
· | no gain or loss will be recognized by Acquired Fund shareholders upon the exchange, pursuant to the Merger, of all their shares (including fractional shares) of the Acquired Fund solely for shares of INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund; |
· | the aggregate tax basis of the INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund shares, including any fractional shares, received by each Acquired Fund shareholder pursuant to the Merger will be the same as the aggregate basis of the shares of the Acquired Fund exchanged therefor by such shareholder; |
· | the holding period of INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund shares, including fractional shares, received by each Acquired Fund shareholder in the Merger will include the period during which the shares of the Acquired Fund |
19 |
exchanged therefor were held by such shareholder, provided such Acquired Fund shares are held as capital assets at the effective time of the Merger;
· | the basis of the assets of the Acquired Fund’s received by INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund will be the same as the basis of such assets in the hands of the Acquired Fund immediately before the effective time of the Merger; and |
· | the holding period of the assets of the Acquired Fund received by INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund will include the period during which such assets were held by the Acquired Fund. |
No opinion will be expressed as to (1) the effect of the Merger on the Acquired Fund, INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund, or any Acquired Fund shareholder with respect to any asset (including without limitation any stock held in a passive foreign investment company as defined in Section 1297(a) of the Code) as to which any unrealized gain or loss is required to be recognized under federal income tax principles (i) at the end of a taxable year (or on the termination thereof) or (ii) upon the transfer of such asset regardless of whether such transfer would otherwise be a non-taxable transaction under the Code or (2) any other federal tax issues (except those set forth above) and all state, local, or non-U.S. tax issues of any kind.
The receipt of such an opinion is a condition to the consummation of the Merger. The Trust has not obtained an Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) private letter ruling regarding the federal income tax consequences of the Merger, and the IRS is not bound by advice of counsel. If the transfer of the assets of the Acquired Fund in exchange for INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund shares and the assumption by INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund of all liabilities of the Acquired Fund does not constitute a tax-free reorganization, each Acquired Fund shareholder generally will recognize a gain or loss approximately equal to the difference between the value of INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund shares such shareholder acquires and the tax basis of such shareholder’s Acquired Fund shares.
Prior to the Closing Date, the Acquired Fund may make a distribution to its shareholders, which together with all previous distributions, will have the effect of distributing to shareholders at least all its net investment income and realized net capital gains (after reduction by any available capital loss carryforwards), if any, through the Closing Date of the Merger. This distribution will be taxable to shareholders who are subject to federal income tax and may include gains resulting from the sale of portfolio assets discussed below. Additional distributions may be made if necessary.
To the extent that a portion of the Acquired Fund’s portfolio assets are sold prior to the Merger, including as a result of portfolio transitioning, the federal income tax effect of such sales would depend on the holding periods of such assets and the difference between the price at which such portfolio assets were sold and the Acquired Fund’s basis in such assets. Any net capital gains (net long-term capital gain in excess of any net short-term capital loss) recognized in these sales, after the application of any available capital loss carryforwards (capital losses from prior taxable years that may be used to offset future capital gains), would be distributed to the Acquired Fund’s shareholders as capital gain dividends. Any net short-term capital gains (in excess of any net long-term capital loss and after application of any available capital loss carryforwards) would be distributed as ordinary dividends. All such distributions would be made during or with respect to the Acquired Fund’s taxable year in which the sale occurs and would be taxable to shareholders who are subject to federal income tax.
After the Merger, INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund’s ability to use the Acquired Fund’s or INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund’s pre-Merger capital losses, if any, may be limited under certain federal income tax rules applicable to reorganizations of this type. Therefore, in certain circumstances, shareholders may pay federal income tax sooner, or may pay more federal income taxes, than they would have had the Merger not occurred. The effect of these potential limitations will depend on a number of factors, including the amount of the losses, the amount of gains to be offset, the exact timing of the Merger and the amount of unrealized capital gains in the Funds at the time of the Merger.
In addition, shareholders of the Acquired Fund will receive a proportionate share of any taxable income and gains realized by INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund and not distributed to its shareholders prior to the Merger when such income and gains are eventually distributed by INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund. As a result, shareholders of the Acquired Fund may receive a greater amount of taxable distributions than they would have had the Merger not occurred.
Shareholders of the Acquired Fund should consult their tax advisers regarding the effect, if any, of the Merger in light of their individual circumstances. Since the foregoing discussion relates only to the federal income tax consequences of the Merger, shareholders of the Acquired Fund should also consult tax advisers as to state, local, non-U.S., and other tax consequences, if any, of the Merger.

Securities to Be Issued, Key Differences in Shareholder Rights
Your Fund and INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund are each organized as separate series of the Trust, a Massachusetts business trust, and are governed by the same Trust Instrument and Bylaws. As such, there are no key differences in the rights of shareholders of the Funds.
All shares of a fund within the Trust participate equally in dividends and other distributions by the shares of the same class of that fund, and in residual assets of that class of that fund in the event of liquidation. Shares of each Fund have no preemptive, conversion, or appraisal rights. Shares of all funds in the Trust have noncumulative voting rights, which means the holders of more than 50% of the value of shares of all funds of the Trust voting for the election of Trustees can elect 100% of the Trustees if they choose to do so. Shares of a fund may be transferred by endorsement or stock power as is customary, but a fund is not bound to recognize any transfer until it is recorded on its books. The Funds have the right to redeem, at the then current NAV, the shares of any shareholder whose account does not meet certain minimum requirements as described in Appendix C.
The following table shows the capitalization as of [ , 2014] (unaudited) for your Fund and INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund, as well as pro forma capitalization giving effect to the Merger:

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ABOUT THE FUNDS
Additional Investment Strategies and General Portfolio Policies
The Funds’ Board of Trustees may change each Fund’s investment objective or non-fundamental principal investment strategies without a shareholder vote. A Fund will notify you in writing at least 60 days before making any such change it considers material. If there is a material change to a Fund’s objective or principal investment strategies, you should consider whether the Fund remains an appropriate investment for you. There is no guarantee that a Fund will achieve its investment objective.
Unless otherwise stated, the following additional investment strategies and general policies apply to each Fund and provide further information including, but not limited to, the types of securities a Fund may invest in when implementing its investment objective. For some Funds, these strategies and policies may be part of a principal strategy. For other Funds, these strategies and policies may be utilized to a lesser extent. Except for the Funds’ policies with respect to investments in illiquid securities and borrowing, the percentage limitations described in the SAI normally apply only at the time of purchase of a security. So, for example, if a Fund exceeds a limit as a result of market fluctuations or the sale of other securities, it will not be required to dispose of any securities. The “Glossary of Investment Terms” includes descriptions of investment terms used throughout the Prospectus/Information Statement.
Cash Position
The Funds normally remain as fully invested as possible and do not seek to lessen the effects of a declining market through hedging or temporary defensive positions. The Funds may use exchange-traded funds, as well as futures, options, and other derivatives, to gain exposure to the stock market pending investment of cash balances or to meet liquidity needs. There is no guarantee that these types of derivative investments will work and their use could cause lower returns or even losses to the Funds. To the extent a Fund invests its uninvested cash through a sweep program (meaning its uninvested cash is pooled with uninvested cash of other funds and invested in certain securities such as repurchase agreements), it is subject to the risks of the account or fund into which it is investing, including liquidity issues that may delay the Fund from accessing its cash.
Foreign Securities
To the extent that foreign securities may be included in a Fund’s named benchmark index, INTECH’s mathematical investment process may select foreign securities from within the applicable benchmark index, regardless of where an issuer or company is located. There are no limitations on the countries in which the Funds may invest.
Investment Process
INTECH applies a mathematical investment process to construct an investment portfolio for each INTECH Fund. INTECH developed the formulas underlying this mathematical investment process. This process seeks, over time, to generate a return in excess of each Fund’s named benchmark index over the long term, while controlling the variability of each Fund’s returns. The mathematical investment process involves:
· | selecting stocks primarily from stocks within a Fund’s named benchmark index; |
· | periodically determining a target weighting of these stocks and rebalancing to the target weighting; and |
· | monitoring the total risk and volatility of a Fund’s holdings. |
INTECH seeks, over time, to outperform each Fund’s named benchmark index through its mathematical investment process. By applying a managed volatility approach, INTECH’s process also seeks to identify stocks for each Fund in a manner that reduces the overall portfolio volatility below that of the named benchmark index. INTECH has designed certain controls to minimize the absolute risk of a Fund. However, the proprietary mathematical investment process used by INTECH may not achieve the desired results. Each Fund may invest in exchange-traded funds or use futures, options, and other derivatives to gain exposure to the stock market pending investment of cash balances or to meet liquidity needs.
Portfolio Turnover
In general, each Fund intends to purchase securities for long-term investment consistent with INTECH’s mathematical investment process. To a limited extent, however, portfolio securities may be held for relatively shorter periods. Short-term transactions may also result from liquidity needs, securities having reached a price objective, changes in the credit standing of an issuer, or by reason of economic or other developments not foreseen at the time of the initial investment. As a result of INTECH’s mathematical investment process, a Fund may sell one security and simultaneously purchase the same or a comparable security. Portfolio turnover may also be affected by market conditions, changes in the size of a Fund (including due
22 |
to shareholder purchases and redemptions), and the nature of each Fund’s investments. Portfolio turnover rates are not a factor in making buy and sell decisions.
The rebalancing techniques used by a Fund may result in higher portfolio turnover compared to a “buy and hold” fund strategy. INTECH periodically rebalances the stocks in each portfolio to its target weighting versus each Fund’s respective benchmark index, as determined by INTECH’s mathematical investment process.
Increased portfolio turnover may result in higher costs for brokerage commissions, dealer mark-ups, and other transaction costs, and may also result in taxable capital gains. Higher costs associated with increased portfolio turnover also may have a negative effect on a Fund’s performance. The “Financial Highlights” found in Appendix C of this Prospectus/Information Statement shows the Funds’ historical turnover rates.
Real Estate-Related Securities
To the extent that real estate-related securities may be included in a Fund’s named benchmark index, INTECH’s mathematical investment process may select equity and debt securities of real estate-related companies. Such companies may include those in the real estate industry or real estate-related industries. These securities may include common stocks, preferred stocks, and other equity securities, including, but not limited to, mortgage-backed securities, real estate-backed securities, securities of real estate investment trusts (“REITs”) and similar REIT-like entities. A REIT is a trust that invests in real estate-related projects, such as properties, mortgage loans, and construction loans. REITs are generally categorized as equity, mortgage, or hybrid REITs. A REIT may be listed on an exchange or traded over-the-counter.
Securities Lending
A Fund may seek to earn additional income through lending its securities to certain qualified broker-dealers and institutions on a short-term or long-term basis. Each Fund may lend portfolio securities on a short-term or long-term basis, in an amount equal to up to one-third of its total assets as determined at the time of the loan origination. When a Fund lends its securities, it receives collateral (including cash collateral), at least equal to the value of securities loaned. The Fund may earn income by investing this collateral in one or more affiliated or non-affiliated cash management vehicles. It is also possible that, due to a decline in the value of a cash management vehicle in which collateral is invested, the Fund may lose money. There is also the risk that when portfolio securities are lent, the securities may not be returned on a timely basis, and the Fund may experience delays and costs in recovering the security or gaining access to the collateral provided to the Fund to collateralize the loan. If the Fund is unable to recover a security on loan, the Fund may use the collateral to purchase replacement securities in the market. There is a risk that the value of the collateral could decrease below the cost of the replacement security by the time the replacement investment is made, resulting in a loss to the Fund. Janus Capital intends to manage the cash collateral in an affiliated cash management vehicle and will receive an investment advisory fee for managing such assets.
Other Types of Investments
Unless otherwise stated within its specific investment policies, each Fund may also invest in other types of domestic and foreign securities and use other investment strategies, as described in the “Glossary of Investment Terms.” These securities and strategies are not intended to be principal investment strategies of the Funds. If successful, they may benefit the Funds by earning a return on the Funds’ assets or reducing risk; however, they may not achieve the Funds’ investment objectives. These securities and strategies may include:
· | debt securities (such as bonds, notes, and debentures) |
· | exchange-traded funds |
· | indexed/structured securities (such as commercial and residential mortgage- and asset-backed securities) |
· | various derivative transactions including, but not limited to, options, futures, forwards, swap agreements (such as equity, interest rate, inflation index, credit default, and total return), participatory notes, structured notes, and other types of derivatives individually or in combination for hedging purposes or for non-hedging purposes such as seeking to earn income and enhance return, to protect unrealized gains, or to avoid realizing losses; such techniques may also be used to adjust currency exposure relative to a benchmark index, to gain exposure to the market pending investment of cash balances, or to meet liquidity needs |
· | securities purchased on a when-issued, delayed delivery, or forward commitment basis |
Fundamental Investment Restrictions
Each Fund has certain additional fundamental investment restrictions that can only be changed with shareholder approval. The Funds have substantially similar fundamental investment restrictions, and these restrictions are shown in Appendix B.

Similar Risk Factors of the Funds
The value of your investment will vary over time, sometimes significantly, and you may lose money by investing in the Funds. Because the Funds may invest substantially all of their assets in common stocks, the main risk is the risk that the value of the stocks they hold might decrease in response to the activities of an individual company or in response to general market and/or economic conditions. The following information is intended to help you better understand some of the risks of investing in the Funds. The impact of the following risks on a Fund may vary depending on the Fund’s investments. The greater the Fund’s investment in a particular security, the greater the Fund’s exposure to the risks associated with that security. Before investing in a Fund, you should consider carefully the risks that you assume when investing in the Fund.
Counterparty Risk. Fund transactions involving a counterparty are subject to the risk that the counterparty or a third party will not fulfill its obligation to a Fund (“counterparty risk”). Counterparty risk may arise because of the counterparty’s financial condition (i.e., financial difficulties, bankruptcy, or insolvency), market activities and developments, or other reasons, whether foreseen or not. A counterparty’s inability to fulfill its obligation may result in significant financial loss to a Fund. A Fund may be unable to recover its investment from the counterparty or may obtain a limited recovery, and/or recovery may be delayed. A Fund may be exposed to counterparty risk to the extent it participates in lending its securities to third parties and/or cash sweep arrangements whereby the Fund’s cash balance is invested in one or more types of cash management vehicles. In addition, a Fund may be exposed to counterparty risk through its investments in certain securities, including, but not limited to, repurchase agreements, debt securities, and derivatives (including various types of swaps, futures, and options). Each Fund intends to enter into financial transactions with counterparties that Janus Capital believes to be creditworthy at the time of the transaction. There is always the risk that Janus Capital’s analysis of a counterparty’s creditworthiness is incorrect or may change due to market conditions. To the extent that a Fund focuses its transactions with a limited number of counterparties, it will have greater exposure to the risks associated with one or more counterparties.
Derivatives Risk. Derivatives can be highly volatile and involve risks in addition to the risks of the underlying referenced securities. Gains or losses from a derivative investment can be substantially greater than the derivative’s original cost, and can therefore involve leverage. Leverage may cause a Fund to be more volatile than if it had not used leverage. Derivatives can be complex instruments and may involve analysis that differs from that required for other investment types used by a Fund. If the value of a derivative does not correlate well with the particular market or other asset class to which the derivative is intended to provide exposure, the derivative may not produce the anticipated result. Derivatives can also reduce the opportunity for gain or result in losses by offsetting positive returns in other investments. Derivatives can be less liquid than other types of investments and entail the risk that the counterparty will default on its payment obligations. If the counterparty to a derivative transaction defaults, a Fund would risk the loss of the net amount of the payments that it contractually is entitled to receive. To the extent a Fund enters into short derivative positions, a Fund may be exposed to risks similar to those associated with short sales, including the risk that a Fund’s losses are theoretically unlimited.
Eurozone Risk. A number of countries in the European Union (“EU”) have experienced severe economic and financial difficulties. As a result, financial markets in the EU have been subject to increased volatility and declines in asset values and liquidity. Responses to these financial problems by European governments, central banks, and others, including austerity measures and reforms, may not work, may result in social unrest, and may limit future growth and economic recovery or have other unintended consequences. Further defaults or restructurings by governments and others of their debt could have additional adverse effects on economies, financial markets, and asset valuations around the world. In addition, one or more countries may abandon the euro and/or withdraw from the EU. The impact of these actions, especially if they occur in a disorderly fashion, is not clear but could be significant and far-reaching. To the extent that a Fund has exposure to European markets or to transactions tied to the value of the euro, these events could negatively affect the value and liquidity of the Fund’s investments. All of these developments may continue to significantly affect the economies of all EU countries, which in turn may have a material adverse effect on a Fund’s investments in such countries, other countries that depend on EU countries for significant amounts of trade or investment, or issuers with exposure to debt issued by certain EU countries.
24 |
Foreign Exposure Risks. As previously noted, to the extent that foreign securities may be included in the Funds’ named benchmark indices, INTECH’s mathematical investment process may select foreign debt and equity securities. Investments in foreign securities, including securities of foreign governments, may involve greater risks than investing in domestic securities because a Fund’s performance may depend on factors other than the performance of a particular company. These factors include:
· | currency risk |
· | political and economic risk |
· | regulatory risk |
· | foreign market risk |
· | geographic investment risk |
· | transaction costs |
Industry Risk. Industry risk is the possibility that a group of related securities will decline in price due to industry-specific developments. Companies in the same or similar industries may share common characteristics and are more likely to react similarly to industry-specific market or economic developments. Each Fund’s investments, if any, in multiple companies in a particular industry increase that Fund’s exposure to industry risk.
Investment Process Risk. The focus on managed volatility may keep a Fund from achieving excess returns over the named benchmark index. In this regard, INTECH’s managed volatility strategy may underperform the Fund’s named benchmark index during certain periods of up markets, and in particular, most likely will underperform the benchmark index in sharply rising markets, and may not achieve the desired level of protection in down markets. Additionally, the rebalancing techniques used by INTECH may result in a higher portfolio turnover rate and related expenses compared to a “buy and hold” fund strategy. There is a risk that INTECH’s method of assessing stocks will not result in the expected volatility or correlation characteristics. In either case, a Fund may not outperform the named benchmark index, and likely will underperform its named benchmark index. As a result of INTECH’s investment process, a Fund may tend to invest in the smaller capitalization members of the named benchmark index, or other stocks, that typically exhibit greater volatility, primarily because of the potential diversification gains due to the lower correlations of their performance to that of the larger capitalization members of the named benchmark index. Consequently, in conditions where market capital is temporarily concentrated in the larger stocks contained in the named benchmark index, and fewer stocks are driving benchmark index returns, the performance of a Fund may be negatively affected relative to the named benchmark index. On an occasional basis, INTECH makes changes to its mathematical investment process that do not require shareholder notice. These changes may result in changes to the portfolio, might not provide the intended results, and may adversely impact a Fund’s performance. In addition, others may attempt to utilize public information related to INTECH’s investment strategy in a way that may affect performance.
INTECH has designed certain controls to minimize the absolute risk of a Fund. For example, to help ensure that risk and trade costs are minimized, among other factors, INTECH employs a screening process to identify stocks that trade at a higher cost as well as constraints on stock weights in a Fund’s optimization. The Funds normally remain as fully invested as possible and do not seek to lessen the effects of a declining market through hedging or temporary defensive positions. However, they may invest in exchange-traded funds or use futures, options, and other derivatives to gain exposure to the stock market pending investment of cash balances or to meet liquidity needs. There is no guarantee that these types of investments will work and their use could cause lower returns or even losses to the Funds.
Market Risk. The value of a Fund’s portfolio may decrease if the value of an individual company or security, or multiple companies or securities, in the portfolio decreases. Further, regardless of how well individual companies or securities perform, the value of a Fund’s portfolio could also decrease if there are deteriorating economic or market conditions, including, but not limited to, a general decline in prices on the stock markets, a general decline in real estate markets, a decline in commodities prices, or if the market favors different types of securities than the types of securities in which the Fund invests. If the value of the Fund’s portfolio decreases, the Fund’s net asset value will also decrease, which means if you sell your shares in the Fund you may lose money.
The financial crisis that began in 2008 caused a significant decline in the value and liquidity of many securities of issuers worldwide in the equity and fixed-income/credit markets. In response to the crisis, the United States and certain foreign governments, along with the U.S. Federal Reserve and certain foreign central banks took steps to support the financial markets. The withdrawal of this support, a failure of measures put in place to respond to the crisis, or investor perception that such efforts
25 |
were not sufficient each could negatively affect financial markets generally, and the value and liquidity of specific securities. In addition, policy and legislative changes in the United States and in other countries continue to impact many aspects of financial regulation. The effect of these changes on the markets, and the practical implications for market participants, including a Fund, may not be fully known for some time. As a result, it may also be unusually difficult to identify both investment risks and opportunities, which could limit or preclude the Fund’s ability to achieve its investment objective. Therefore, it is important to understand that the value of your investment may fall, sometimes sharply, and you could lose money.
The enactment of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the “Dodd-Frank Act”) in July 2010 provided for widespread regulation of financial institutions, consumer financial products and services, broker-dealers, over-the- counter derivatives, investment advisers, credit rating agencies, and mortgage lending, which expands federal oversight in the financial sector, including the investment management industry. Many provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act remain pending and will be implemented through future rulemaking. Therefore, the ultimate impact of the Dodd-Frank Act and the regulations under the Dodd-Frank Act on the Funds and the investment management industry as a whole, is not yet certain.
Real Estate Securities Risk. To the extent it holds equity and/or debt securities of real estate-related companies, a Fund may be affected by the risks associated with real estate investments. The value of securities of companies in real estate and real estate-related industries, including securities of REITs, is sensitive to decreases in real estate values and rental income, property taxes, interest rates, tax and regulatory requirements, overbuilding/supply and demand, increased competition, local and general economic conditions, increases in operating costs, environmental liabilities, management skill in running a REIT, and the creditworthiness of the REIT. In addition, mortgage REITs and mortgage-backed securities are subject to prepayment risk. Mortgage-backed securities comprised of subprime mortgages and investments in other real estate-backed securities comprised of under-performing real estate assets also may be subject to a higher degree of credit risk, valuation risk, and liquidity risk. If a Fund has REIT investments, the Fund’s shareholders will indirectly bear their proportionate share of the REIT’s expenses, in addition to their proportionate share of the Fund’s expenses.
REIT Risk. To the extent that a Fund holds REITs, it may be subject to the additional risks associated with REIT investments. The ability to trade REITs in the secondary market can be more limited compared to other equity investments, and certain REITs have relatively small market capitalizations, which can increase the volatility of the market price for their securities. REITs are also subject to heavy cash flow dependency to allow them to make distributions to their shareholders. The prices of equity REITs are affected by changes in the value of the underlying property owned by the REITs and changes in capital markets and interest rates. The prices of mortgage REITs are affected by the quality of any credit they extend, the creditworthiness of the mortgages they hold, as well as by the value of the property that secures the mortgages. Equity REITs and mortgage REITs generally are not diversified and are subject to heavy cash flow dependency, defaults by borrowers, and self-liquidation. There is also the risk that borrowers under mortgages held by a REIT or lessees of a property that a REIT owns may be unable to meet their obligations to the REIT. In the event of a default by a borrower or lessee, the REIT may incur substantial costs associated with protecting its investments. Certain “special purpose” REITs in which a Fund may invest focus their assets in specific real property sectors, such as hotels, shopping malls, nursing homes, or warehouses, and are therefore subject to the specific risks associated with adverse developments in these sectors.
Other Comparative Information about the Funds
Janus Capital Management LLC, 151 Detroit Street, Denver, Colorado 80206-4805, is the investment adviser to each Fund. INTECH is responsible for the day-to-day management of the Funds’ investment portfolios subject to the general oversight of Janus Capital. Janus Capital also provides certain administration and other services and is responsible for other business affairs of each Fund.
The Trust and Janus Capital have received an exemptive order from the Securities and Exchange Commission that permits Janus Capital, subject to the approval of the Trustees, to appoint or replace certain subadvisers to manage all or a portion of a Fund’s assets and enter into, amend, or terminate a subadvisory agreement with certain subadvisers without obtaining shareholder approval (a “manager-of-managers structure”). Implementation of a manager-of-managers structure, however, would need to be approved by a Fund’s shareholders. The manager-of-managers structure applies to subadvisers that are not affiliated with the Trust or Janus Capital (“non-affiliated subadvisers”), as well as any subadviser that is an indirect or direct “wholly-owned subsidiary” (as such term is defined by the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended) of Janus Capital or of another company that, indirectly or directly, wholly owns Janus Capital (collectively, “wholly-owned subadvisers”).
26 |
Pursuant to the order, Janus Capital, with the approval of the Trustees, has the discretion to terminate any subadviser and allocate and reallocate a Fund’s assets among Janus Capital and any other non-affiliated subadvisers or wholly-owned subadvisers (including terminating a non-affiliated subadviser and replacing it with a wholly-owned subadviser). Janus Capital, subject to oversight and supervision by the Trustees, has responsibility to oversee any subadviser to a Fund and to recommend for approval by the Trustees, the hiring, termination, and replacement of subadvisers for the Funds. The order also permits a Fund to disclose subadvisers’ fees only in the aggregate in the SAI. In the event that Janus Capital hires a new subadviser pursuant to the manager-of-managers structure, the affected Fund(s) would provide shareholders with information about the new subadviser and subadvisory agreement within 90 days.
Janus (together with its predecessors) has served as investment adviser to Janus mutual funds since 1970 and currently serves as investment adviser to all of the Janus funds, acts as subadviser for a number of private-label mutual funds, and provides separate account advisory services for institutional accounts and other unregistered products.
Janus furnishes certain administration, compliance, and accounting services for your Fund and INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund and is reimbursed by the Funds for certain of its costs in providing those services (to the extent Janus seeks reimbursement and such costs are not otherwise waived). In addition, employees of Janus and/or its affiliates may serve as officers of the Trust. Janus provides office space for each Fund. Some expenses related to compensation payable to the Janus funds’ Chief Compliance Officer and compliance staff are shared with the Janus funds. Each Fund also pays for salaries, fees, and expenses of certain Janus employees and Fund officers, with respect to certain specified administration functions they perform on behalf of the Janus funds. The Janus funds pay these costs based on out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Janus, and these costs are separate and apart from advisory fees and other expenses paid in connection with the investment advisory services Janus provides to the Funds.
Each Fund pays Janus an investment advisory fee and incurs expenses, including distribution and shareholder servicing fees (12b-1 fee), administrative services fees payable pursuant to the Transfer Agency Agreement, any other transfer agent and custodian fees and expenses, legal and auditing fees, printing and mailing costs of sending reports and other information to existing shareholders, and Independent Trustees’ fees and expenses. Each Fund’s investment advisory fee is calculated daily and paid monthly. Each Fund’s advisory agreement details the investment advisory fee and other expenses that each Fund must pay. Janus pays INTECH a subadvisory fee from its investment advisory fee for managing the Funds.
The following table reflects each Fund’s contractual investment advisory fee rate (expressed as an annual rate), as well as the actual investment advisory fee rate paid by each Fund to Janus (gross and net of fee waivers). The rate shown is a fixed rate based on each Fund’s average daily net assets. The investment advisory fee rate is aggregated to include all investment advisory fees paid by each Fund.
Fund Name | Average Daily Net Assets of the Fund | Contractual Investment Advisory Fee (%) (annual rate) | Actual Investment Advisory Fee Rate(1) (%) (for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014) |
Your Fund | All Asset Levels | 0.50 | 0.50 |
INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund | All Asset Levels | 0.50 | 0.50 |
(1) | Janus Capital has agreed to waive its investment advisory fee and/or reimburse Fund expenses to the extent that each Fund’s total annual fund operating expenses (excluding the distribution and shareholder servicing fees, administrative services fees payable pursuant to the Transfer Agency Agreement, brokerage commissions, interest, dividends, taxes, acquired fund fees and expenses, and extraordinary expenses) exceed certain levels until at least November 1, 2015. Application of the expense waivers and their effect on annual fund operating expenses is reflected, when applicable, under Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses After Fee Waiver in the table in the “Comparison of Fees and Expenses” section of this Prospectus/Information Statement, and additional information is included under “Expense Limitations.” The waivers are not reflected in the contractual fee rates shown. |

All references in this Agreement to action taken by the Target Fund or the Acquiring Fund shall be deemed to refer to action taken by the Trust on behalf of the respective portfolio series.
This Agreement is intended to be and is adopted as a plan of reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). The reorganization (the “Reorganization”) will consist of the transfer by the Target Fund of all or substantially all of its assets to the Acquiring Fund, in exchange solely for Class A, Class C, Class I, Class S, Class N, and Class T voting shares of beneficial interest in the Acquiring Fund (the “Acquiring Fund Shares”) having an aggregate net asset value equal to the aggregate net asset value of the same class of shares of the Target Fund, the assumption by the Acquiring Fund of all the liabilities of the Target Fund, and the distribution of the Class A, Class C, Class I, Class S, Class N, and Class T Acquiring Fund Shares to the shareholders of the Target Fund in complete liquidation of the Target Fund, all upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth in this Agreement.
WHEREAS, the Board of Trustees of the Trust has determined that it is in the best interest of each of the Target Fund and the Acquiring Fund that the assets of the Target Fund be acquired by the Acquiring Fund pursuant to this Agreement and in accordance with the applicable statutes of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, and that the interests of existing shareholders of the Funds will not be diluted as a result of this transaction;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and of the covenants and agreements hereinafter set forth, the parties hereto covenant and agree as follows:
1. PLAN OF REORGANIZATION
1.1 Subject to the terms and conditions herein set forth, (i) the Target Fund shall transfer all or substantially all of its assets, as set forth in paragraph 1.2, to the Acquiring Fund, (ii) the Acquiring Fund shall deliver to the Target Fund full and fractional Class A, Class C, Class I, Class S, Class N, and Class T Acquiring Fund Shares, in each case, having an aggregate net asset value equal to the value of the aggregate net assets of the same class of shares of the Target Fund as of the close of regular session trading on the New York Stock Exchange on the Closing Date, as set forth in paragraph 2.1 (the “Closing Date”) and (iii) the Acquiring Fund shall assume all liabilities of the Target Fund, as set forth in paragraph 1.2. Such transactions shall take place at the closing provided for in paragraph 2.1 (the “Closing”).
1.2 The assets of the Target Fund to be acquired by the Acquiring Fund shall consist of all property, including, without limitation, all cash, securities, commodities and futures interests, and dividends or interest receivable which are owned by the Target Fund and any deferred or prepaid expenses shown as an asset on the books of the Target Fund as of the Closing. The Acquiring Fund will assume all of the liabilities, expenses, costs, charges and reserves of the Target Fund of any kind, whether absolute, accrued, contingent or otherwise in existence as of the Closing.
1.3 The Target Fund will distribute pro rata to its shareholders of record, determined as of immediately after the close of business on the Closing Date (the “Current Shareholders”), the Class A, Class C, Class I, Class S, Class N and Class T Acquiring Fund Shares received by the Trust pursuant to paragraph 1.1. Such distribution and liquidation will be accomplished by the transfer of the Class A, Class C, Class I, Class S, Class N and Class T Acquiring Fund Shares then credited to the accounts of the Target Fund on the books of the Acquiring Fund to open accounts on the share records of the Acquiring Fund in the names of the Class A, Class C, Class I, Class S, Class, Class N, and Class T Current Shareholders, respectively, and representing the pro rata number of the Class A, Class C, Class I, Class S, Class N and Class T Acquiring Fund Shares due to such shareholders. All issued and outstanding shares of the Target Fund will simultaneously be canceled on the books of the Trust. The Acquiring Fund shall not issue certificates representing the Class A, Class C, Class I, Class S, Class N and Class T Acquiring Fund Shares in
A-1 |
connection with such exchange. Ownership of Class A, Class C, Class I, Class S, Class N and Class T Acquiring Fund Shares will be shown on the books of the Trust’s transfer agent. As soon as practicable after the Closing, but in no event later than 12 months after the Closing Date, the Trust shall take all steps necessary to effect a complete liquidation and dissolution pursuant to applicable state law of the Target Fund.
2. CLOSING AND CLOSING DATE
2.1 The Closing Date shall be [ , 2015], or such other date as the parties may agree to in writing. All acts taking place at the Closing shall be deemed to take place simultaneously as of immediately after the close of business on the Closing Date unless otherwise agreed to by the parties. The close of business on the Closing Date shall be as of the close of regular session trading on the New York Stock Exchange. The Closing shall be held at the offices of Janus Capital Management LLC (“JCM”), 151 Detroit Street, Denver, Colorado 80206-4805, or at such other time and/or place as the parties may agree.
2.2 The Trust shall cause Janus Services LLC (the “Transfer Agent”), transfer agent of the Target Fund, to deliver at the Closing a certificate of an authorized officer stating that its records contain the names and addresses of the Current Shareholders and the number, class, and percentage ownership of outstanding shares of the Target Fund owned by each such shareholder immediately prior to the Closing. The Acquiring Fund shall issue and deliver a confirmation evidencing the Class A, Class C, Class I, Class S, Class N and Class T Acquiring Fund Shares to be credited on the Closing Date to the Secretary of the Trust or provide evidence satisfactory to the Trust that such Class A, Class C, Class I, Class S, Class N and Class T Acquiring Fund Shares have been credited to the accounts of the Target Fund on the books of the Acquiring Fund.

(i) The Trust shall have filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) a registration statement on Form N-14 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and such amendment or amendments thereto as are determined by the Board of Trustees of the Trust and/or the officers of the Trust to be necessary and appropriate to effect the registration of the Class A, Class C, Class I, Class S, Class N and Class T Acquiring Fund Shares (the “Registration Statement”), and the Registration Statement shall have become effective, and no stop-order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement shall have been issued, and no proceeding for that purpose shall have been initiated or threatened by the Commission (and not withdrawn or terminated);
(ii) The Class A, Class C, Class I, Class S, Class N, and Class T Acquiring Fund Shares shall have been duly qualified for offering to the public in all states in which such qualification is required for consummation of the transactions contemplated hereunder;
(iii) All representations and warranties of the Trust on behalf of the Target Fund contained in this Agreement shall be true and correct in all material respects as of the date hereof and as of the Closing, with the same force and effect as if then made, and the Trust on behalf of the Acquiring Fund shall have received a certificate of an officer of the Trust acting on behalf of the Target Fund to that effect in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Trust on behalf of the Acquiring Fund;
(iv) All representations and warranties of the Trust on behalf of the Acquiring Fund contained in this Agreement shall be true and correct in all material respects as of the date hereof and as of the Closing, with the same force and effect as if then made, and the Trust on behalf of the Target Fund shall have received a certificate of an officer of the Trust acting on behalf of the Acquiring Fund to that effect in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Trust on behalf of the Target Fund;
(v) The Trust shall have received the opinion of Vedder Price, P.C. substantially to the effect that, based upon certain facts, assumptions, and representations, the transaction contemplated by this Agreement shall constitute a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a)(1) of the Code. No opinion will be expressed as to (a) the effect of the Reorganization on the Target Fund, the Acquiring Fund, or any Target Fund shareholder with respect to any asset (including without limitation any stock held in a passive foreign investment company as defined in Section 1297(a) of the Code) as to which any unrealized gain or loss is required to be recognized under federal income tax principles (i) at the end of a taxable year (or on the termination thereof) or (ii) upon the transfer of such asset regardless of whether such transfer would otherwise be a non-taxable transaction under the Code, or (b) any other federal tax issues (except those set forth above) and all state, local, or foreign tax issues of any kind. Such opinion shall be based on customary assumptions and such representations as Vedder Price, P.C. may reasonably request of the Funds, and the Target Fund and the Acquiring Fund will cooperate to make and certify the accuracy of such representations.

At or prior to the Closing, the Target Fund, the Acquiring Fund, and the Trust will take such action, or cause such action to be taken, as is reasonably necessary to enable counsel to render the tax opinion contemplated herein in paragraph 4.1(v).

INVESTMENT POLICIES AND RESTRICTIONS
Fundamental Investment Policies and Restrictions:
The Funds are subject to certain fundamental policies and restrictions that may not be changed without shareholder approval. Shareholder approval means approval by the lesser of: (i) more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities of the Trust (or a particular Fund or particular class of shares if a matter affects just that Fund or that class of shares) or (ii) 67% or more of the voting securities present at a meeting if the holders of more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities of the Trust (or a particular Fund or class of shares) are present or represented by proxy. The following policies are fundamental policies of the Funds.
(1) With respect to 75% of its total assets, a Fund may not purchase securities of an issuer (other than the U.S. Government, its agencies, instrumentalities or authorities, or repurchase agreements collateralized by U.S. Government securities, and securities of other investment companies) if: (a) such purchase would, at the time, cause more than 5% of the Fund’s total assets taken at market value to be invested in the securities of such issuer or (b) such purchase would, at the time, result in more than 10% of the outstanding voting securities of such issuer being held by the Fund.
Each Fund may not:
(2) Invest 25% or more of the value of its total assets in any particular industry (other than U.S. Government securities).
(3) Purchase or sell physical commodities unless acquired as a result of ownership of securities or other instruments (but this limitation shall not prevent a Fund from purchasing or selling foreign currencies, options, futures, swaps, forward contracts, or other derivative instruments, or from investing in securities or other instruments backed by physical commodities).
(4) Lend any security or make any other loan if, as a result, more than one-third of a Fund’s total assets would be lent to other parties (but this limitation does not apply to investments in repurchase agreements, commercial paper, debt securities, or loans, including assignments and participation interests).
(5) Act as an underwriter of securities issued by others, except to the extent that a Fund may be deemed an underwriter in connection with the disposition of its portfolio securities.
(6) Borrow money except that a Fund may borrow money for temporary or emergency purposes (not for leveraging or investment). Borrowings from banks will not, in any event, exceed one-third of the value of a Fund’s total assets (including the amount borrowed). This policy shall not prohibit short sales transactions, or futures, options, swaps, or forward transactions. The Funds may not issue “senior securities” in contravention of the 1940 Act.
(7) Invest directly in real estate or interests in real estate; however, a Fund may own debt or equity securities issued by companies engaged in those businesses.
As a fundamental policy, a Fund may, notwithstanding any other investment policy or limitation (whether or not fundamental), invest all of its assets in the securities of a single open-end management investment company with substantially the same fundamental investment objectives, policies, and limitations as such Fund.
The Trustees have adopted additional investment restrictions for the Funds. These restrictions are operating policies of the Funds and may be changed by the Trustees without shareholder approval. The additional restrictions adopted by the Trustees to date include the following:
(1) If a Fund is an approved underlying fund in a Janus fund of funds, the Fund may not acquire the securities of other investment companies or registered unit investment trusts in excess of the limits of Section 12(d)(1) of the 1940 Act in reliance on subparagraph (F) or subparagraph (G) of Section 12(d)(1).
B-1 |
(2) The Funds may sell securities short if they own or have the right to obtain securities equivalent in kind and amount to the securities sold short without the payment of any additional consideration therefor (“short sales against the box”). In addition, each Fund may engage in short sales other than against the box, which involve selling a security that a Fund borrows and does not own. The Trustees may impose limits on a Fund’s investments in short sales, as described in this Prospectus/Information Statement. Transactions in futures, options, swaps, and forward contracts not involving short sales are not deemed to constitute selling securities short.
(3) The Funds do not intend to purchase securities on margin, except that the Funds may obtain such short-term credits as are necessary for the clearance of transactions, and provided that margin payments and other deposits in connection with transactions involving short sales, futures, options, swaps, forward contracts, and other permitted investment techniques shall not be deemed to constitute purchasing securities on margin.
(4) A Fund may not mortgage or pledge any securities owned or held by such Fund in amounts that exceed, in the aggregate, 15% of that Fund’s net asset value, provided that this limitation does not apply to: reverse repurchase agreements; deposits of assets to margin; guarantee positions in futures, options, swaps, or forward contracts; or the segregation of assets in connection with such contracts.
(5) The Funds do not currently intend to purchase any security or enter into a repurchase agreement if, as a result, more than 15% of their respective net assets would be invested in repurchase agreements not entitling the holder to payment of principal and interest within seven days and in securities that are illiquid by virtue of legal or contractual restrictions on resale or the absence of a readily available market. The Trustees, or the Funds’ investment adviser acting pursuant to authority delegated by the Trustees, may determine that a readily available market exists for: securities eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“Rule 144A Securities”), or any successor to such rule; Section 4(2) commercial paper; and municipal lease obligations. Accordingly, such securities may not be subject to the foregoing limitation. Certain securities previously deemed liquid may become illiquid in any subsequent assessment of liquidity factors affecting the security.
(6) The Funds may not invest in companies for the purpose of exercising control of management.
Under the terms of an exemptive order received from the SEC, each Fund may borrow money from or lend money to other funds that permit such transactions and for which Janus Capital or one of its affiliates serves as investment adviser. All such borrowing and lending will be subject to the above limits and to the limits and other conditions in such exemptive order. A Fund will borrow money through the program only when the costs are equal to or lower than the cost of bank loans. Interfund loans and borrowings normally extend overnight, but can have a maximum duration of seven days. A Fund will lend through the program only when the returns are higher than those available from other short-term instruments (such as repurchase agreements). A Fund may have to borrow from a bank at a higher interest rate if an interfund loan is called or not renewed. Any delay in repayment to a lending Fund could result in a lost investment opportunity or additional borrowing costs.
For purposes of these investment restrictions, the identification of the issuer of a municipal obligation depends on the terms and conditions of the security. When assets and revenues of a political subdivision are separate from those of the government that created the subdivision and the security is backed only by the assets and revenues of the subdivision, the subdivision is deemed to be the sole issuer. Similarly, in the case of an industrial development bond, if the bond is backed only by assets and revenues of a nongovernmental user, then the nongovernmental user would be deemed to be the sole issuer. If, however, in either case, the creating government or some other entity guarantees the security, the guarantee would be considered a separate security that would be treated as an issue of the guaranteeing entity.
For purposes of the Funds’ fundamental policy related to investments in real estate, the policy does not prohibit the purchase of securities directly or indirectly secured by real estate or interests therein, or issued by entities that invest in real estate or interests therein, such as, but not limited to, corporations, partnerships, real estate investment trusts (“REITs”), and other REIT-like entities, such as foreign entities that have REIT characteristics.
For purposes of each Fund’s policies on investing in particular industries, effective December 2013, each Fund relies primarily on industry or industry group classifications under the Global Industry Classification Standard (“GICS”) developed by MSCI with respect to equity investments and classifications published by Barclays for fixed-income investments. Funds with both equity and fixed-income components will rely on industry classifications published by Bloomberg L.P. To the extent that the above classifications are so broad that the primary economic characteristics in a single class are materially different, a Fund
B-2 |
may further classify issuers in accordance with industry classifications consistent with relevant SEC staff interpretations. The Funds may change any source used for determining industry classifications without prior shareholder notice or approval.

Consult with your financial intermediary representative for additional information on whether the shares are an appropriate investment choice. Certain funds may not be available through certain of these intermediaries and not all financial intermediaries offer all classes of shares. If your financial intermediary offers more than one class of shares, you should carefully consider which class of shares to purchase. Certain classes have higher
C-1 |
expenses than other classes, which may lower the return on your investment. For instructions on how to purchase, exchange, or redeem shares, contact your financial intermediary or refer to your plan documents. For Class I Shares held directly with Janus, please contact a Janus representative at 1-800-333-1181.
PRICING OF FUND SHARES
The per share NAV for each class is computed by dividing the total value of assets allocated to the class, less liabilities allocated to that class, by the total number of outstanding shares of the class. The Fund’s NAV is calculated as of the close of the regular trading session of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) (normally 4:00 p.m. New York time) each day that the NYSE is open (“business day”). However, the NAV may be calculated earlier if trading on the NYSE is restricted, or as permitted by the SEC. Foreign securities held by the Fund may be traded on days and at times when the NYSE is closed and the NAV is therefore not calculated. Accordingly, the value of the Fund’s holdings may change on days that are not business days in the United States and on which you will not be able to purchase or redeem the Fund’s shares.
The price you pay for purchases of shares is the public offering price, which is the NAV next determined after your request is received in good order by the Fund or its agents, plus, for Class A Shares, any applicable initial sales charge. The price you pay to sell shares is also the NAV, although for Class A Shares and Class C Shares, a contingent deferred sales charge may be taken out of the proceeds. Your financial intermediary may charge you a separate or additional fee for processing purchases and redemptions of shares. In order to receive a day’s price, your order must be received in good order by the Fund or its agents by the close of the regular trading session of the NYSE.
Securities held by the Fund are valued in accordance with policies and procedures established by and under the supervision of the Trustees. To the extent available, equity securities are generally valued on the basis of market quotations. Most fixed-income securities are typically valued using an evaluated bid price supplied by a pricing service that is intended to reflect market value. The evaluated bid price is an evaluation that may consider factors such as security prices, yields, maturities, and ratings. Certain short-term instruments maturing within 60 days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. If a market quotation or evaluated price for a security is not readily available or is deemed unreliable, or if an event that is expected to affect the value of the security occurs after the close of the principal exchange or market on which the security is traded, and before the close of the NYSE, a fair value of the security will be determined in good faith under the policies and procedures. Such events include, but are not limited to: (i) a significant event that may affect the securities of a single issuer, such as a merger, bankruptcy, or significant issuer-specific development; (ii) an event that may affect an entire market, such as a natural disaster or significant governmental action; (iii) a non-significant event such as a market closing early or not opening, or a security trading halt; and (iv) pricing of a non-valued security and a restricted or non-public security. This type of fair value pricing may be more commonly used with foreign equity securities, but it may also be used with, among other things, thinly-traded domestic securities or fixed-income securities. Special valuation considerations may apply with respect to “odd-lot” fixed-income transactions which, due to their small size, may receive evaluated prices by pricing services which reflect a large block trade and not what actually could be obtained for the odd-lot position. For valuation purposes, quotations of foreign portfolio securities, other assets and liabilities, and forward contracts stated in foreign currency are generally translated into U.S. dollar equivalents at the prevailing market rates. The Fund uses systematic fair valuation models provided by independent pricing services to value foreign equity securities in order to adjust for stale pricing, which may occur between the close of certain foreign exchanges and the close of the NYSE.
Due to the subjective nature of systematic fair value pricing, the Fund’s value for a particular security may be different from the last quoted market price. Systematic fair value pricing may reduce arbitrage activity involving the frequent buying and selling of mutual fund shares by investors seeking to take advantage of a perceived lag between a change in the value of the Fund’s portfolio securities and the reflection of such change in the Fund’s NAV, as further described in the “Excessive Trading” section of this Prospectus/Information Statement. While funds that invest in foreign securities may be at a greater risk for arbitrage activity, such activity may also arise in funds which do not invest in foreign securities, for example, when trading in a security held by a fund is halted and does not resume prior to the time the fund calculates its NAV (referred to as “stale pricing”). Funds that hold thinly-traded securities, such as certain small-capitalization securities or high-yield fixed-income securities, may be subject to attempted use of arbitrage techniques. To the extent that the Fund’s valuation of a security is different from the security’s market value, short-term arbitrage traders buying and/or selling shares of the Fund may dilute the NAV of the Fund, which negatively impacts long-term shareholders. The Fund’s fair value pricing and excessive trading policies and procedures may not completely eliminate short-term trading in certain omnibus accounts and other accounts traded through intermediaries.
C-2 |
The value of the securities of other open-end funds held by the Fund, if any, will be calculated using the NAV of such open-end funds, and the prospectuses for such open-end funds explain the circumstances under which they use fair value pricing and the effects of using fair value pricing.
All purchases, exchanges, redemptions, or other account activity must be processed through your financial intermediary or plan sponsor. Your financial intermediary or plan sponsor is responsible for promptly transmitting purchase, redemption, and other requests to the Fund under the arrangements made between your financial intermediary or plan sponsor and its customers. The Fund is not responsible for the failure of any financial intermediary or plan sponsor to carry out its obligations to its customers.
CHOOSING A SHARE CLASS
Class A Shares, Class C Shares, Class S Shares, Class I Shares, Class N Shares, and Class T Shares are offered by this Prospectus/Information Statement. The Fund offers multiple classes of shares in order to meet the needs of various types of investors. For more information about these classes of shares and whether or not you are eligible to purchase these shares, please call 1-877-335-2687.
Each class represents an interest in the same portfolio of investments, but has different charges and expenses, allowing you to choose the class that best meets your needs. For an analysis of fees associated with an investment in each share class or other similar funds, please visit www.finra.org/fundanalyzer. When choosing a share class, you should consider:
· | how much you plan to invest; |
· | how long you expect to own the shares; |
· | the expenses paid by each class; and |
· | for Class A Shares and Class C Shares, whether you qualify for any reduction or waiver of any sales charges. |
You should also consult your financial intermediary about which class is most suitable for you. In addition, you should consider the factors below with respect to each class of shares:

DISTRIBUTION, SERVICING, AND ADMINISTRATIVE FEES
Distribution and Shareholder Servicing Plans
Under separate distribution and shareholder servicing plans adopted in accordance with Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act for Class A Shares and Class S Shares (each a “Plan”) and Class C Shares (the “Class C Plan”), the Fund pays Janus Distributors LLC (“Janus Distributors”), the Trust’s distributor, a fee for the sale and distribution and/or shareholder servicing of the shares based on the average daily net assets of each, at the following annual rates:
Class | 12b-1 Fee for the Fund |
Class A Shares | 0.25% |
Class C Shares | 1.00%(1) |
Class S Shares | 0.25% |
(1) Up to 0.75% of this fee is for distribution services and up to 0.25% of this fee is for shareholder services. |
Under the terms of each Plan, the Trust is authorized to make payments to Janus Distributors for remittance to retirement plan service providers, broker-dealers, bank trust departments, financial advisors, and other financial intermediaries, as compensation for distribution and/or shareholder services performed by such entities for their customers who are investors in the Fund.
C-4 |
Janus Distributors is entitled to retain all fees paid under the Class C Plan for the first 12 months on any investment in Class C Shares to recoup its expenses with respect to the payment of commissions on sales of Class C Shares. Financial intermediaries will become eligible for compensation under the Class C Plan beginning in the 13th month following the purchase of Class C Shares, although Janus Distributors may, pursuant to a written agreement between Janus Distributors and a particular financial intermediary, pay such financial intermediary 12b-1 fees prior to the 13th month following the purchase of Class C Shares.
Financial intermediaries may from time to time be required to meet certain criteria in order to receive 12b-1 fees. Janus Distributors is entitled to retain some or all fees payable under each Plan in certain circumstances, including when there is no broker of record or when certain qualification standards have not been met by the broker of record.
Because 12b-1 fees are paid out of the Fund’s assets on an ongoing basis, over time they will increase the cost of your investment and may cost you more than paying other types of sales charges.
Administrative Fees
Class A Shares, Class C Shares, and Class I Shares
Certain, but not all, intermediaries may charge fees for administrative services, including recordkeeping, subaccounting, order processing for omnibus or networked accounts, or other shareholder services provided by intermediaries on behalf of shareholders of the Fund. Order processing includes the submission of transactions through the National Securities Clearing Corporation (“NSCC”) or similar systems, or those processed on a manual basis with Janus. Other shareholder services may include the provision of order confirmations, periodic account statements, forwarding prospectuses, shareholder reports, and other materials to existing customers, and answering inquiries regarding accounts. Janus Services pays these administrative fees to intermediaries on behalf of the Fund. Janus Services is then reimbursed by the Fund for such payments. Because the form and amount charged varies by intermediary, the amount of the administrative fee borne by the class is an average of all fees charged by intermediaries. In the event an intermediary receiving payments from Janus Services on behalf of the Fund converts from a networking structure to an omnibus account structure, or otherwise experiences increased costs, fees borne by the shares may increase. The Fund’s Trustees have set limits on fees that the Fund may incur with respect to administrative fees paid for omnibus or networked accounts. Such limits are subject to change by the Trustees in the future. Janus Services also seeks reimbursement for costs it incurs as transfer agent and for providing servicing.
Class S Shares and Class T Shares
Janus Services, the Trust’s transfer agent, receives an administrative services fee at an annual rate of 0.25% of the average daily net assets of Class S Shares and Class T Shares of the Fund for providing, or arranging for the provision by intermediaries of, administrative services, including recordkeeping, subaccounting, order processing for omnibus or networked accounts, or other shareholder services provided on behalf of shareholders of the Fund. Order processing includes the submission of transactions through the NSCC or similar systems, or those processed on a manual basis with Janus. Other shareholder services may include the provision of order confirmations, periodic account statements, forwarding prospectuses, shareholder reports, and other materials to existing customers, and answering inquiries regarding accounts. Janus Services expects to use all or a significant portion of this fee to compensate intermediaries and retirement plan service providers for providing these services to their customers who invest in the Fund. Janus Services or its affiliates may also pay fees for services provided by intermediaries to the extent the fees charged by intermediaries exceed the 0.25% of net assets charged to the Fund.
PAYMENTS TO FINANCIAL INTERMEDIARIES BY JANUS CAPITAL OR ITS AFFILIATES
From their own assets, Janus Capital or its affiliates may pay selected brokerage firms or other financial intermediaries that sell certain classes of shares of the Janus funds for distribution, marketing, promotional, or related services. Such payments may be based on gross sales, assets under management, or transactional charges, or on a combination of these factors. The amount of these payments is determined from time to time by Janus Capital, may be substantial, and may differ for different financial intermediaries. Payments based primarily on sales create an incentive to make new sales of shares, while payments based on assets create an incentive to retain previously sold shares. Sales- and asset-based payments currently range up to 25 basis points on sales and up to 20 basis points on average annual net assets of shares held through the intermediary and are subject to change. Payments based on transactional charges may include the payment or reimbursement of all or a portion of “ticket charges.” Ticket charges are fees charged to salespersons purchasing through a financial intermediary firm in connection with mutual fund purchases, redemptions, or exchanges. The payment or reimbursement of ticket charges creates an incentive for salespersons of an intermediary to sell shares of Janus funds over shares of funds for which there is lesser or no payment or reimbursement of any applicable ticket charge. Payments made with respect to certain classes of shares may create an incentive for an intermediary to promote or favor other share classes of the Janus funds. Janus Capital and its affiliates consider a number of
C-5 |
factors in making payments to financial intermediaries, including the distribution capabilities of the intermediary, the overall quality of the relationship, expected gross and/or net sales generated by the relationship, redemption and retention rates of assets held through the intermediary, the willingness of the intermediary to cooperate with Janus Capital’s marketing efforts, access to sales personnel, and the anticipated profitability of sales through the institutional relationship. These factors may change from time to time. Currently, the payments mentioned above are limited to Class A Shares, Class C Shares, and for certain financial intermediaries with advisory platforms, Class I Shares, and only for the top 100 distributors (measured by sales or expected sales of shares of the Janus funds). Broker-dealer firms currently receiving or expected to receive these fees are listed in the Fund’s SAI, which is incorporated by reference herein.
In addition, for all share classes (except Class N Shares, if applicable), Janus Capital, Janus Distributors, or their affiliates may pay fees, from their own assets, to brokerage firms, banks, financial advisors, retirement plan service providers, and other financial intermediaries for providing other marketing or distribution-related services, as well as recordkeeping, subaccounting, transaction processing, and other shareholder or administrative services (including payments for processing transactions via NSCC or other means) in connection with investments in the Janus funds. These fees are in addition to any fees that may be paid by the Janus funds for these types of services or other services.
Janus Capital or its affiliates may also share certain marketing expenses with intermediaries, or pay for, or sponsor informational meetings, seminars, client awareness events, support for marketing materials, sales reporting, or business building programs for such financial intermediaries to raise awareness of the Fund. Janus Capital or its affiliates may make payments to participate in intermediary marketing support programs which may provide Janus Capital or its affiliates with one or more of the following benefits: attendance at sales conferences, participation in meetings or training sessions, access to or information about intermediary personnel, use of an intermediary’s marketing and communication infrastructure, fund analysis tools, business planning and strategy sessions with intermediary personnel, information on industry- or platform-specific developments, trends and service providers, and other marketing-related services. Such payments may be in addition to, or in lieu of, the payments described above. These payments are intended to promote the sales of Janus funds and to reimburse financial intermediaries, directly or indirectly, for the costs that they or their salespersons incur in connection with educational seminars, meetings, and training efforts about the Janus funds to enable the intermediaries and their salespersons to make suitable recommendations, provide useful services, and maintain the necessary infrastructure to make the Janus funds available to their customers.
The receipt of (or prospect of receiving) payments, reimbursements, and other forms of compensation described above may provide a financial intermediary and its salespersons with an incentive to favor sales of Janus funds’ shares over sales of other mutual funds (or non-mutual fund investments) or to favor sales of one class of Janus funds’ shares over sales of another Janus funds’ share class, with respect to which the financial intermediary does not receive such payments or receives them in a lower amount. The receipt of these payments may cause certain financial intermediaries to elevate the prominence of the Janus funds within such financial intermediary’s organization by, for example, placement on a list of preferred or recommended funds and/or the provision of preferential or enhanced opportunities to promote the Janus funds in various ways within such financial intermediary’s organization.
From time to time, certain financial intermediaries approach Janus Capital to request that Janus Capital make contributions to certain charitable organizations. In these cases, Janus Capital’s contribution may result in the financial intermediary, or its salespersons, recommending Janus funds over other mutual funds (or non-mutual fund investments).
The payment arrangements described above will not change the price an investor pays for shares nor the amount that a Janus fund receives to invest on behalf of the investor. However, as described elsewhere in this Prospectus/Information Statement, your financial adviser and/or his or her firm may also receive 12b-1 fees and/or administrative services fees in connection with your purchase and retention of Janus funds. When such fees are combined with the payments described above, the aggregate payments being made to a financial intermediary may be substantial. You should consider whether such arrangements exist when evaluating any recommendations from an intermediary to purchase or sell shares of the Fund and, if applicable, when considering which share class of the Fund is most appropriate for you. Please contact your financial intermediary or plan sponsor for details on such arrangements.
PURCHASES
With certain limited exceptions, the Fund is generally available only to shareholders residing in the United States. Unless you meet certain residency eligibility requirements, you may not be able to open an account or buy additional shares.
C-6 |
With the exception of Class I Shares, purchases of shares may generally be made only through institutional channels such as financial intermediaries and retirement platforms. Class I Shares may be purchased directly with the Fund in certain circumstances as described in the “Minimum Investment Requirements” section. Contact your financial intermediary, a Janus representative (1-800-333-1181) if you hold Class I Shares directly with Janus, or refer to your plan documents for information on how to invest in the Fund, including additional information on minimum initial or subsequent investment requirements. Under certain circumstances, the Fund may permit an in-kind purchase of shares. Your financial intermediary may charge you a separate or additional fee for processing purchases of shares. Only certain financial intermediaries are authorized to receive purchase orders on the Fund’s behalf. As discussed under “Payments to financial intermediaries by Janus Capital or its affiliates,” Janus Capital and its affiliates may make payments to brokerage firms or other financial intermediaries that were instrumental in the acquisition or retention of shareholders for the Fund or that provide services in connection with investments in the Fund. You should consider such arrangements when evaluating any recommendation of the Fund.
The Fund reserves the right to reject any purchase order, including exchange purchases, for any reason. The Fund is not intended for excessive trading. For more information about the Fund’s policy on excessive trading, refer to “Excessive Trading.”
In compliance with the Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001 (“USA PATRIOT Act”), your financial intermediary (or Janus if you hold shares directly with Janus) is required to verify certain information on your account application as part of its Anti-Money Laundering Program. You will be required to provide your full name, date of birth, social security number, and permanent street address to assist in verifying your identity. You may also be asked to provide documents that may help to establish your identity. Until verification of your identity is made, your financial intermediary may temporarily limit additional share purchases. In addition, your financial intermediary may close an account if it is unable to verify a shareholder’s identity. Please contact your financial intermediary if you need additional assistance when completing your application or additional information about the intermediary’s Anti-Money Laundering Program.
In an effort to ensure compliance with this law, Janus’ Anti-Money Laundering Program (the “Program”) provides for the development of internal practices, procedures and controls, designation of anti-money laundering compliance officers, an ongoing training program, and an independent audit function to determine the effectiveness of the Program.
Minimum Investment Requirements
Class A Shares, Class C Shares, Class S Shares, and Class T Shares
The minimum investment is $2,500 per Fund account for non-retirement accounts and $500 per Fund account for certain tax-deferred accounts or UGMA/UTMA accounts. Investors in a defined contribution plan through a third party administrator should refer to their plan document or contact their plan administrator for additional information. In addition, accounts held through certain wrap programs may not be subject to these minimums. Investors should refer to their intermediary for additional information.
The maximum purchase in Class C Shares is $500,000 for any single purchase. The sales charge and expense structure of Class A Shares may be more advantageous for investors purchasing more than $500,000 of Fund shares.
Class I Shares
The minimum investment is $1 million for institutional investors investing directly with Janus. Institutional investors generally may meet the minimum investment amount by aggregating multiple accounts within the same Fund. Accounts offered through an intermediary institution must meet the minimum investment requirements of $2,500 per Fund account for non-retirement accounts and $500 per Fund account for certain tax-deferred accounts or UGMA/UTMA accounts. Directors, officers, and employees of JCGI and its affiliates, as well as Trustees and officers of the Fund, may purchase Class I Shares through certain financial intermediaries’ institutional platforms. For more information about this program and eligibility requirements, please contact a Janus representative at 1-800-333-1181. Exceptions to these minimums may apply for certain tax-deferred, tax-qualified and retirement plans, and accounts held through certain wrap programs. For additional information, contact your intermediary, plan sponsor, administrator, or a Janus representative, as applicable.
Class N Shares
Investors in a retirement plan through a third party administrator should refer to their plan documents or contact their plan administrator for information regarding account minimums.
C-7 |
Class A Shares, Class C Shares, Class S Shares, Class I Shares, and Class T Shares
The Fund reserves the right to annually request that intermediaries close Fund accounts that are valued at less than $100, other than as a result solely of depreciation in share value. Certain accounts held through intermediaries may not be subject to closure due to the policies of the intermediaries. You may receive written notice from your intermediary to increase your account balance to the required minimum to avoid having your account closed provided you meet certain residency eligibility requirements. If you hold Class I Shares directly with the Fund, you may receive written notice prior to the closure of your Fund account so that you may increase your account balance to the required minimum provided you meet certain residency eligibility requirements. Please note that you may incur a tax liability as a result of a redemption.
The Fund reserves the right to change the amount of these minimums or maximums from time to time or to waive them in whole or in part.
Systematic Purchase Plan
You may arrange for periodic purchases by authorizing your financial intermediary (or a Janus representative if you hold Class I Shares directly with the Fund) to withdraw the amount of your investment from your bank account on a day or days you specify. Not all financial intermediaries offer this plan. Contact your financial intermediary or a Janus representative for details.
Initial Sales Charge
Class A Shares
An initial sales charge may apply to your purchase of Class A Shares of the Fund based on the amount invested, as set forth in the table below. The sales charge is allocated between Janus Distributors and your financial intermediary. Sales charges, as expressed as a percentage of offering price and as a percentage of your net investment, are shown in the table. The dollar amount of your initial sales charge is calculated as the difference between the public offering price and the net asset value of those shares. Since the offering price is calculated to two decimal places using standard rounding criteria, the number of shares purchased and the dollar amount of your sales charge as a percentage of the offering price and of your net investment may be higher or lower than the amounts set forth in the table depending on whether there was a downward or upward rounding.
Amount of Purchase at Offering Price | Class A Shares Sales Charge as a Percentage of Offering Price(1) | Class A Shares Sales Charge as a Percentage of Net Amount Invested |
Under $50,000 | 5.75% | 6.10% |
$50,000 but under $100,000 | 4.50% | 4.71% |
$100,000 but under $250,000 | 3.50% | 3.63% |
$250,000 but under $500,000 | 2.50% | 2.56% |
$500,000 but under $1,000,000 | 2.00% | 2.04% |
$1,000,000 and above | None(2) | None |
(1) Offering Price includes the initial sales charge. (2) A contingent deferred sales charge of 1.00% may apply to Class A Shares purchased without an initial sales charge if redeemed within 12 months of purchase. |
For purchases of Class A Shares of $1,000,000 or greater, from its own assets, Janus Distributors may pay financial intermediaries commissions as follows:
· | 1.00% on amounts from $1,000,000 to $4,000,000; |
· | plus 0.50% on amounts greater than $4,000,000 to $10,000,000; |
· | plus 0.25% on amounts over $10,000,000. |
The purchase totals eligible for these commissions are aggregated on a rolling one year basis so that the rate payable resets to the highest rate annually.
Qualifying for a Reduction or Waiver of Class A Shares Sales Charge
You may be able to lower your Class A Shares sales charge under certain circumstances. For example, you can combine Class A Shares and Class C Shares you already own (either in this Fund or certain other Janus funds) with your current purchase of Class A Shares of the Fund and certain other Janus funds (including Class C Shares of those funds) to take advantage of the
C-8 |
breakpoints in the sales charge schedule as set forth above. Certain circumstances under which you may combine such ownership of shares and purchases are described below. Contact your financial intermediary for more information.
Class A Shares of the Fund may be purchased without an initial sales charge by the following persons (and their spouses and children under 21 years of age): (i) registered representatives and other employees of intermediaries that have selling agreements with Janus Distributors to sell Class A Shares; (ii) directors, officers, and employees of JCGI and its affiliates; and (iii) Trustees and officers of the Trust. In addition, the initial sales charge may be waived on purchases of Class A Shares through financial intermediaries that have entered into an agreement with Janus Distributors that allows the waiver of the sales charge.
In order to obtain a sales charge discount, you should inform your financial intermediary of other accounts in which there are Fund holdings eligible to be aggregated to meet a sales charge breakpoint. These other accounts may include the accounts described under “Aggregating Accounts.” You may need to provide documents such as account statements or confirmation statements to prove that the accounts are eligible for aggregation. The Letter of Intent described below requires historical cost information in certain circumstances. You should retain records necessary to show the price you paid to purchase Fund shares, as the Fund, its agents, or your financial intermediary may not retain this information.
Right of Accumulation. You may purchase Class A Shares of the Fund at a reduced sales charge determined by aggregating the dollar amount of the new purchase (measured by the offering price) and the total prior day’s net asset value (net amount invested) of all Class A Shares of the Fund and of certain other classes (Class A Shares and Class C Shares of the Trust) of Janus funds then held by you, or held in accounts identified under “Aggregating Accounts,” and applying the sales charge applicable to such aggregate amount. In order for your purchases and holdings to be aggregated for purposes of qualifying for such discount, they must have been made through one financial intermediary and you must provide sufficient information to your financial intermediary at the time of purchase to permit verification that the purchase qualifies for the reduced sales charge. The right of accumulation is subject to modification or discontinuance at any time with respect to all shares purchased thereafter.
Letter of Intent. You may obtain a reduced sales charge on Class A Shares by signing a Letter of Intent indicating your intention to purchase $50,000 or more of Class A Shares (including Class A Shares in other series of the Trust) over a 13-month period. The term of the Letter of Intent will commence upon the date you sign the Letter of Intent. You must refer to such Letter when placing orders. With regard to a Letter of Intent, the amount of investment for purposes of applying the sales load schedule includes (i) the historical cost (what you actually paid for the shares at the time of purchase, including any sales charges) of all Class A Shares acquired during the term of the Letter of Intent, minus (ii) the value of any redemptions of Class A Shares made during the term of the Letter of Intent. Each investment made during the period receives the reduced sales charge applicable to the total amount of the investment goal. A portion of shares purchased may be held in escrow to pay for any sales charge that may be applicable. If the goal is not achieved within the period, you must pay the difference between the sales charges applicable to the purchases made and the charges previously paid, or an appropriate number of escrowed shares will be redeemed. Please contact your financial intermediary to obtain a Letter of Intent application.
Aggregating Accounts. To take advantage of lower Class A Shares sales charges on large purchases or through the exercise of a Letter of Intent or right of accumulation, investments made by you, your spouse, and your children under age 21 may be aggregated if made for your own account(s) and/or certain other accounts such as:
· | trust accounts established by the above individuals (or the accounts of the primary beneficiary of the trust if the person who established the trust is deceased); |
· | solely controlled business accounts; and |
· | single participant retirement plans. |
To receive a reduced sales charge under rights of accumulation or a Letter of Intent, you must notify your financial intermediary of any eligible accounts that you, your spouse, and your children under age 21 have at the time of your purchase.
You may access information regarding sales loads, breakpoint discounts, and purchases of the Fund’s shares, free of charge, and in a clear and prominent format, on our website at janus.com/breakpoints, and by following the appropriate hyperlinks to the specific information.
C-9 |
Commission on Class C Shares
Janus Distributors may compensate your financial intermediary at the time of sale at a commission rate of 1.00% of the net asset value of the Class C Shares purchased. Service providers to qualified plans or other financial intermediaries will not receive this amount if they receive 12b-1 fees from the time of initial investment of assets in Class C Shares.
EXCHANGES
With certain limited exceptions, the Fund is generally available only to shareholders residing in the United States. Unless you meet certain residency eligibility requirements, the exchange privilege may not be available.
Contact your financial intermediary, a Janus representative (1-800-333-1181) if you hold Class I Shares directly with the Fund, or consult your plan documents to exchange into other funds in the Trust. Be sure to read the prospectus of the fund into which you are exchanging. An exchange from one fund to another is generally a taxable transaction (except for certain tax-deferred accounts).
· | You may generally exchange shares of the Fund for shares of the same class of any other fund in the Trust offered through your financial intermediary or qualified plan. |
· | You may also exchange shares of one class for another class of shares within the same fund, provided the eligibility requirements of the class of shares to be received are met. Same-fund exchanges will only be processed in instances where there is no contingent deferred sales charge (“CDSC”) on the shares to be exchanged and no initial sales charge on the shares to be received. The Fund’s fees and expenses differ between share classes. Please consider these differences prior to investing in another share class. Contact your financial intermediary or consult your plan documents for additional information. |
· | You must meet the minimum investment amount for each fund. |
· | The exchange privilege is not intended as a vehicle for short-term or excessive trading. The Fund may suspend or terminate your exchange privilege if you make more than one round trip in the Fund in a 90-day period and may bar future purchases in the Fund or any of the other Janus funds. The Fund will work with intermediaries to apply the Fund’s exchange limit. However, the Fund may not always have the ability to monitor or enforce the trading activity in such accounts. For more information about the Fund’s policy on excessive trading, refer to “Excessive Trading.” |
· | The Fund reserves the right to reject any exchange request and to modify or terminate the exchange privilege at any time. |
Waiver of Sales Charges
Class A Shares received through an exchange of Class A Shares of another fund of the Trust will not be subject to any initial sales charge of the Fund’s Class A Shares. Class A Shares or Class C Shares received through an exchange of Class A Shares or Class C Shares, respectively, of another fund of the Trust will not be subject to any applicable CDSC at the time of the exchange. Any CDSC applicable to redemptions of Class A Shares or Class C Shares will continue to be measured on the shares received by exchange from the date of your original purchase. For more information about the CDSC, please refer to “Redemptions.” While Class C Shares do not have any front-end sales charges, their higher annual fund operating expenses mean that over time, you could end up paying more than the equivalent of the maximum allowable front-end sales charge.
REDEMPTIONS
With certain limited exceptions, the Fund is generally available only to shareholders residing in the United States. Unless you meet certain residency eligibility requirements, once you close your account, you may not make additional investments in the Fund.
Redemptions, like purchases, may generally be effected only through financial intermediaries, retirement platforms, and by certain direct institutional investors holding Class I Shares. Please contact your financial intermediary, a Janus representative (1-800-333-1181) if you hold Class I Shares directly with the Fund, or refer to the appropriate plan documents for details. Your financial intermediary may charge a processing or service fee in connection with the redemption of shares.
Shares of the Fund may be redeemed on any business day on which the Fund’s NAV is calculated. Redemptions are duly processed at the NAV next calculated after your redemption order is received in good order by the Fund or its agents. Redemption proceeds, less any applicable CDSC for Class A Shares or Class C Shares, will normally be sent the business day following receipt of the redemption order.
C-10 |
The Fund reserves the right to postpone payment of redemption proceeds for up to seven calendar days. Additionally, the right to require the Fund to redeem its shares may be suspended, or the date of payment may be postponed beyond seven calendar days, whenever: (i) trading on the NYSE is restricted, as determined by the SEC, or the NYSE is closed (except for holidays and weekends); (ii) the SEC permits such suspension and so orders; or (iii) an emergency exists as determined by the SEC so that disposal of securities or determination of NAV is not reasonably practicable.
The Fund reserves the right to annually request that intermediaries close Fund accounts that are valued at less than $100, other than as a result solely of depreciation in share value. Certain accounts held through intermediaries may not be subject to closure due to the policies of the intermediaries. You may receive written notice from your intermediary to increase your account balance to the required minimum to avoid having your account closed provided you meet certain residency eligibility requirements. If you hold Class I Shares directly with the Fund, you may receive written notice prior to the closure of your Fund account so that you may increase your account balance to the required minimum provided you meet certain residency eligibility requirements. Please note that you may incur a tax liability as a result of a redemption.
Large Shareholder Redemptions
Certain large shareholders, such as other funds, institutional investors, financial intermediaries, individuals, accounts, and Janus affiliates, may from time to time own (beneficially or of record) or control a significant percentage of the Fund’s shares. Redemptions by these large shareholders of their holdings in the Fund may cause the Fund to sell portfolio securities at times when it would not otherwise do so, which may negatively impact the Fund’s NAV and liquidity. Similarly, large Fund share purchases may adversely affect the Fund’s performance to the extent that the Fund is delayed in investing new cash and is required to maintain a larger cash position than it ordinarily would. These transactions may also accelerate the realization of taxable income to shareholders if such sales of investments result in gains, and may also increase transaction costs. In addition, a large redemption could result in the Fund’s current expenses being allocated over a smaller asset base, which may lead to an increase in the Fund’s expense ratio.
Redemptions In-Kind
Shares normally will be redeemed for cash, although the Fund retains the right to redeem some or all of its shares in-kind under unusual circumstances, in order to protect the interests of remaining shareholders, to accommodate a request by a particular shareholder that does not adversely affect the interests of the remaining shareholders, or in connection with the liquidation of a fund, by delivery of securities selected from its assets at its discretion. However, the Fund is required to redeem shares solely for cash up to the lesser of $250,000 or 1% of the NAV of the Fund during any 90-day period for any one shareholder. Should redemptions by any shareholder exceed such limitation, the Fund will have the option of redeeming the excess in cash or in-kind. In-kind payment means payment will be made in portfolio securities rather than cash. If this occurs, the redeeming shareholder might incur brokerage or other transaction costs to convert the securities to cash, whereas such costs are borne by the Fund for cash redemptions.
While the Fund may pay redemptions in-kind, the Fund may instead choose to raise cash to meet redemption requests through the sale of fund securities or permissible borrowings. If the Fund is forced to sell securities at an unfavorable time and/or under unfavorable conditions, such sales may adversely affect the Fund’s NAV and may increase brokerage costs.
Systematic Withdrawal Plan
Class A Shares and Class C Shares
You may arrange for periodic redemptions of Class A Shares or Class C Shares by authorizing your financial intermediary to redeem a specified amount from your account on a day or days you specify. Any resulting CDSC may be waived through financial intermediaries that have entered into an agreement with Janus Distributors. The maximum annual rate at which shares subject to a CDSC may be redeemed, pursuant to a systematic withdrawal plan, without paying a CDSC, is 12% of the net asset value of the account. Certain other terms and minimums may apply. Not all financial intermediaries offer this plan. Contact your financial intermediary for details.
Class S Shares, Class I Shares, Class N Shares, and Class T Shares
You may arrange for periodic redemptions by authorizing your financial intermediary (or a Janus representative if you hold Class I Shares directly with the Fund) to redeem a specified amount from your account on a day or days you specify. Not all financial intermediaries offer this plan. Contact your financial intermediary or a Janus representative for details.
C-11 |
Contingent Deferred Sales Charge
Class A Shares and Class C Shares
A 1.00% CDSC may be deducted with respect to Class A Shares purchased without an initial sales charge if redeemed within 12 months of purchase, unless any of the CDSC waivers listed apply. A 1.00% CDSC will be deducted with respect to Class C Shares redeemed within 12 months of purchase, unless a CDSC waiver applies. The CDSC will be based on the lower of the original purchase price or the value of the redemption of the Class A Shares or Class C Shares redeemed, as applicable.
CDSC Waivers
There are certain cases in which you may be exempt from a CDSC charged to Class A Shares and Class C Shares. Among others, these include:
· | Upon the death or disability of an account owner; |
· | Retirement plans and certain other accounts held through a financial intermediary that has entered into an agreement with Janus Distributors to waive CDSCs for such accounts; |
· | Retirement plan shareholders taking required minimum distributions; |
· | The redemption of Class A Shares or Class C Shares acquired through reinvestment of Fund dividends or distributions; |
· | The portion of the redemption representing appreciation as a result of an increase in NAV above the total amount of payments for Class A Shares or Class C Shares during the period during which the CDSC applied; or |
· | If the Fund chooses to liquidate or involuntarily redeem shares in your account. |
To keep the CDSC as low as possible, Class A Shares or Class C Shares not subject to any CDSC will be redeemed first, followed by shares held longest.
Reinstatement Privilege
After you have redeemed Class A Shares, you have a one-time right to reinvest the proceeds into Class A Shares of the same or another fund within 90 days of the redemption date at the current NAV (without an initial sales charge). You will not be reimbursed for any CDSC paid on your redemption of Class A Shares.
EXCESSIVE TRADING
Excessive Trading Policies and Procedures
The Trustees have adopted policies and procedures with respect to short-term and excessive trading of Fund shares (“excessive trading”). The Fund is intended for long-term investment purposes only, and the Fund will take reasonable steps to attempt to detect and deter short-term and excessive trading. Transactions placed in violation of the Fund’s exchange limits or excessive trading policies may be cancelled or revoked by the Fund by the next business day following receipt by the Fund. The trading history of accounts determined to be under common ownership or control within any of the Janus funds may be considered in enforcing these policies and procedures. As described below, however, the Fund may not be able to identify all instances of excessive trading or completely eliminate the possibility of excessive trading. In particular, it may be difficult to identify excessive trading in certain omnibus accounts and other accounts traded through intermediaries. By their nature, omnibus accounts, in which purchases and redemptions of the Fund’s shares by multiple investors are aggregated by the intermediary and presented to the Fund on a net basis, may effectively conceal the identity of individual investors and their transactions from the Fund and its agents. This makes the elimination of excessive trading in the accounts impractical without the assistance of the intermediary.
The Fund attempts to deter excessive trading through at least the following methods:
· | exchange limitations as described under “Exchanges;” |
· | trade monitoring; and |
· | fair valuation of securities as described under “Pricing of Fund Shares.” |
Generally, a purchase and redemption of shares from the Fund (i.e., “round trip”) within 90 calendar days may result in enforcement of the Fund’s excessive trading policies and procedures with respect to future purchase orders, provided that the Fund reserves the right to reject any purchase request as explained above.
C-12 |
The Fund monitors for patterns of shareholder frequent trading and may suspend or permanently terminate the exchange privilege of any investor who makes more than one round trip in the Fund over a 90-day period, and may bar future purchases into the Fund and any of the other Janus funds by such investor. The Fund’s excessive trading policies generally do not apply to (i) a money market fund, although money market funds at all times reserve the right to reject any purchase request (including exchange purchases) for any reason without prior notice; (ii) transactions in the Janus funds by a Janus “fund of funds,” which is a fund that primarily invests in other Janus mutual funds; and (iii) identifiable transactions by certain funds of funds and asset allocation programs to realign portfolio investments with existing target allocations.
The Fund’s Trustees may approve from time to time a redemption fee to be imposed by any Janus fund, subject to 60 days’ notice to shareholders of that fund.
Investors who place transactions through the same financial intermediary on an omnibus basis may be deemed part of a group for the purpose of the Fund’s excessive trading policies and procedures and may be rejected in whole or in part by the Fund. The Fund, however, cannot always identify or reasonably detect excessive trading that may be facilitated by financial intermediaries or made difficult to identify through the use of omnibus accounts by those intermediaries that transmit purchase, exchange, and redemption orders to the Fund, and thus the Fund may have difficulty curtailing such activity. Transactions accepted by a financial intermediary in violation of the Fund’s excessive trading policies may be cancelled or revoked by the Fund by the next business day following receipt by the Fund.
In an attempt to detect and deter excessive trading in omnibus accounts, the Fund or its agents may require intermediaries to impose restrictions on the trading activity of accounts traded through those intermediaries. Such restrictions may include, but are not limited to, requiring that trades be placed by U.S. mail, prohibiting future purchases by investors who have recently redeemed Fund shares, requiring intermediaries to report information about customers who purchase and redeem large amounts, and similar restrictions. The Fund’s ability to impose such restrictions with respect to accounts traded through particular intermediaries may vary depending on the systems’ capabilities, applicable contractual and legal restrictions, and cooperation of those intermediaries.
Certain transactions in Fund shares, such as periodic rebalancing through intermediaries (no more frequently than every 60 days) or those which are made pursuant to systematic purchase, exchange, or redemption programs generally do not raise excessive trading concerns and normally do not require application of the Fund’s methods to detect and deter excessive trading.
The Fund also reserves the right to reject any purchase request (including exchange purchases) by any investor or group of investors for any reason without prior notice, including, in particular, if the trading activity in the account(s) is deemed to be disruptive to the Fund. For example, the Fund may refuse a purchase order if the Fund’s investment personnel believe they would be unable to invest the money effectively in accordance with the Fund’s investment policies or the Fund would otherwise be adversely affected due to the size of the transaction, frequency of trading, or other factors.
The Fund’s policies and procedures regarding excessive trading may be modified at any time by the Fund’s Trustees.
Excessive Trading Risks
Excessive trading may present risks to the Fund’s long-term shareholders. Excessive trading into and out of the Fund may disrupt portfolio investment strategies, may create taxable gains to remaining Fund shareholders, and may increase Fund expenses, all of which may negatively impact investment returns for all remaining shareholders, including long-term shareholders.
Funds that invest in foreign securities may be at a greater risk for excessive trading. Investors may attempt to take advantage of anticipated price movements in securities held by a fund based on events occurring after the close of a foreign market that may not be reflected in the fund’s NAV (referred to as “price arbitrage”). Such arbitrage opportunities may also arise in funds which do not invest in foreign securities, for example, when trading in a security held by a fund is halted and does not resume prior to the time the fund calculates its NAV (referred to as “stale pricing”). Funds that hold thinly-traded securities, such as certain small-capitalization securities, may be subject to attempted use of arbitrage techniques. To the extent that the Fund’s valuation of a security differs from the security’s market value, short-term arbitrage traders may dilute the NAV of the Fund, which negatively impacts long-term shareholders. Although the Fund has adopted valuation policies and procedures intended to reduce the Fund’s exposure to price arbitrage, stale pricing, and other potential pricing inefficiencies, under such circumstances there is potential for short-term arbitrage trades to dilute the value of Fund shares.
C-13 |
Although the Fund takes steps to detect and deter excessive trading pursuant to the policies and procedures described in the Fund’s Prospectus and approved by the Trustees, there is no assurance that these policies and procedures will be effective in limiting excessive trading in all circumstances. For example, the Fund may be unable to completely eliminate the possibility of excessive trading in certain omnibus accounts and other accounts traded through intermediaries. Omnibus accounts may effectively conceal the identity of individual investors and their transactions from the Fund and its agents. This makes the Fund’s identification of excessive trading transactions in the Fund through an omnibus account difficult and makes the elimination of excessive trading in the account impractical without the assistance of the intermediary. Although the Fund encourages intermediaries to take necessary actions to detect and deter excessive trading, some intermediaries may be unable or unwilling to do so, and accordingly, the Fund cannot eliminate completely the possibility of excessive trading.
Shareholders that invest through an omnibus account should be aware that they may be subject to the policies and procedures of their financial intermediary with respect to excessive trading in the Fund.
AVAILABILITY OF PORTFOLIO HOLDINGS INFORMATION
The Mutual Fund Holdings Disclosure Policies and Procedures adopted by Janus Capital and all mutual funds managed within the Janus fund complex are designed to be in the best interests of the funds and to protect the confidentiality of the funds’ portfolio holdings. The following describes policies and procedures with respect to disclosure of portfolio holdings.
· | Full Holdings. The Fund is required to disclose its complete holdings in the quarterly holdings report on Form N-Q within 60 days of the end of the first and third fiscal quarters, and in the annual report and semiannual report to Fund shareholders. These reports (i) are available on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov; (ii) may be reviewed and copied at the SEC’s Public Reference Room in Washington, D.C. (information on the Public Reference Room may be obtained by calling 1-800-SEC-0330); and (iii) are available without charge, upon request, by calling a Janus representative at 1-800-525-0020 (toll free). Portfolio holdings (excluding derivatives, short positions, and other investment positions) consisting of at least the names of the holdings are generally available on a calendar quarter-end basis with a 60-day lag. Holdings are generally posted approximately two business days thereafter under Full Holdings for the Fund at janus.com/info. |
The Fund may provide, upon request, historical full holdings at any time subject to a written confidentiality agreement.
· | Top Holdings. The Fund’s top portfolio holdings, consisting of security names only in alphabetical order and aggregate percentage of the Fund’s total portfolio, are available monthly with a 15-day lag and on a calendar quarter-end basis with a 15-day lag. |
· | Other Information. The Fund may occasionally provide security breakdowns (e.g., industry, sector, regional, market capitalization, and asset allocation) and specific portfolio level performance attribution information and statistics monthly with a 15-day lag and on a calendar quarter-end basis with a 15-day lag. |
Full portfolio holdings will remain available on the Janus websites at least until a Form N-CSR or Form N-Q is filed with the SEC for the period that includes the date as of which the website information is current. Funds disclose their short positions, if applicable, only to the extent required in regulatory reports. Janus Capital may exclude from publication on its websites all or any portion of portfolio holdings or change the time periods of disclosure as deemed necessary to protect the interests of the Janus funds. Under extraordinary circumstances, exceptions to the Mutual Fund Holdings Disclosure Policies and Procedures may be made by Janus Capital’s Chief Investment Officer(s) or their delegates. All exceptions shall be preapproved by the Chief Compliance Officer or his designee. Such exceptions may be made without prior notice to shareholders. A summary of the Fund’s portfolio holdings disclosure policies and procedures, which includes a discussion of any exceptions, is contained in the Fund’s SAI, which is incorporated herein.
SHAREHOLDER COMMUNICATIONS
Statements and Reports
Your financial intermediary or plan sponsor (or Janus, if you hold Class I Shares directly with the Fund) is responsible for sending you periodic statements of all transactions, along with trade confirmations and tax reporting, as required by applicable law.
C-14 |
Your financial intermediary or plan sponsor (or Janus, if you hold Class I Shares directly with the Fund) is responsible for providing annual and semiannual reports, including the financial statements of the Fund. These reports show the Fund’s investments and the market value of such investments, as well as other information about the Fund and its operations. Please contact your financial intermediary or plan sponsor (or Janus) to obtain these reports. The Fund’s fiscal year ends June 30.
Lost (Unclaimed/Abandoned) Accounts
It is important to maintain a correct address for each shareholder. An incorrect address may cause a shareholder’s account statements and other mailings to be returned as undeliverable. Based upon statutory requirements for returned mail, your financial intermediary or plan sponsor (or Janus, if you hold Class I Shares directly with the Fund) is required to attempt to locate the shareholder or rightful owner of the account. If the financial intermediary or plan sponsor (or Janus) is unable to locate the shareholder, then the financial intermediary or plan sponsor (or Janus) is legally obligated to deem the property “unclaimed” or “abandoned,” and subsequently escheat (or transfer) unclaimed property (including shares of a mutual fund) to the appropriate state’s unclaimed property administrator in accordance with statutory requirements. Further, your mutual fund account may be deemed “unclaimed” or “abandoned,” and subsequently transferred to your state of residence if no activity (as defined by that state) occurs within your account during the time frame specified in your state’s unclaimed property laws. The shareholder’s last known address of record determines which state has jurisdiction. Interest or income is not earned on redemption or distribution check(s) sent to you during the time the check(s) remained uncashed.
DISTRIBUTIONS
To avoid taxation of the Fund, the Internal Revenue Code requires the Fund to distribute all or substantially all of its net investment income and any net capital gains realized on its investments at least annually. Distributions are made at the class level, so they may vary from class to class within the Fund.
Distribution Schedule
Dividends from net investment income and distributions of capital gains are normally declared and distributed in December but, if necessary, may be distributed at other times as well.
How Distributions Affect the Fund’s NAV
Distributions are paid to shareholders as of the record date of a distribution of the Fund, regardless of how long the shares have been held. Undistributed dividends and net capital gains are included in the Fund’s daily NAV. The share price of the Fund drops by the amount of the distribution, net of any subsequent market fluctuations. For example, assume that on December 31, the Fund declared a dividend in the amount of $0.25 per share. If the Fund’s share price was $10.00 on December 30, the Fund’s share price on December 31 would be $9.75, barring market fluctuations. You should be aware that distributions from a taxable mutual fund do not increase the value of your investment and may create income tax obligations.
“Buying a Dividend”
If you purchase shares of the Fund just before a distribution, you will pay the full price for the shares and receive a portion of the purchase price back as a taxable distribution. This is referred to as “buying a dividend.” In the above example, if you bought shares on December 30, you would have paid $10.00 per share. On December 31, the Fund would pay you $0.25 per share as a dividend and your shares would now be worth $9.75 per share. Unless your account is set up as a tax-deferred account, dividends paid to you would be included in your gross income for tax purposes, even though you may not have participated in the increase in NAV of the Fund, whether or not you reinvested the dividends. You should consult with your financial intermediary or tax adviser as to potential tax consequences of any distributions that may be paid shortly after purchase.
For your convenience, distributions of net investment income and net capital gains are automatically reinvested in additional shares of the Fund without any sales charge. To receive distributions in cash, contact your financial intermediary or a Janus representative (1-800-333-1181) if you hold Class I Shares directly with the Fund. Whether reinvested or paid in cash, the distributions may be subject to taxes, unless your shares are held in a qualified tax-deferred plan or account.
TAXES
As with any investment, you should consider the tax consequences of investing in the Fund. The following is a general discussion of certain federal income tax consequences of investing in the Fund. The discussion does not apply to qualified tax-deferred accounts or other non-taxable entities, nor is it a complete analysis of the federal income tax implications of investing in the Fund. You should consult your tax adviser regarding the effect that an investment in the Fund may have on your particular tax situation, including the federal, state, local, and foreign tax consequences of your investment.
C-15 |
Taxes on Distributions
Distributions by the Fund are subject to federal income tax, regardless of whether the distribution is made in cash or reinvested in additional shares of the Fund. Distributions from net investment income (which includes dividends, interest, and realized net short-term capital gains), other than qualified dividend income, are taxable to shareholders as ordinary income. Distributions of qualified dividend income are taxed to individuals and other noncorporate shareholders at long-term capital gain rates, provided certain holding period and other requirements are satisfied. Distributions of net capital gain (i.e., the excess of net long-term capital gain over net short-term capital loss) are taxable as long-term capital gain, regardless of how long a shareholder has held Fund shares. In certain states, a portion of the distributions (depending on the sources of the Fund’s income) may be exempt from state and local taxes. Individuals, trusts, and estates whose income exceeds certain threshold amounts are subject to a 3.8% Medicare contribution tax on net investment income in tax years beginning on or after January 1, 2013. Net investment income includes dividends paid by the Fund and capital gains from any sale or exchange of Fund shares. The Fund’s net investment income and capital gains are distributed to (and may be taxable to) those persons who are shareholders of the Fund at the record date of such payments. Although the Fund’s total net income and net realized gain are the results of its operations, the per share amount distributed or taxable to shareholders is affected by the number of Fund shares outstanding at the record date. Distributions declared to shareholders of record in October, November, or December and paid on or before January 31 of the succeeding year will be treated for federal income tax purposes as if received by shareholders on December 31 of the year in which the distribution was declared. Generally, account tax information will be made available to shareholders on or before February 15 of each year. Information regarding distributions may also be reported to the Internal Revenue Service.
Distributions made by the Fund with respect to shares purchased through a qualified retirement plan will generally be exempt from current taxation if left to accumulate within the qualified plan. Generally, withdrawals from qualified plans may be subject to federal income tax at ordinary income rates and, if made before age 59½, a 10% penalty tax may be imposed. The federal income tax status of your investment depends on the features of your qualified plan. For further information, please contact your plan sponsor or tax adviser.
Taxes on Sales or Exchanges
Any time you sell or exchange shares of the Fund in a taxable account, it is considered a taxable event. For federal income tax purposes, an exchange is treated the same as a sale. Depending on the purchase price and the sale price, you may have a gain or loss on the transaction. The gain or loss will generally be treated as a long-term capital gain or loss if you held your shares for more than one year and if not held for such period, as a short-term capital gain or loss. Any tax liabilities generated by your transactions are your responsibility.
The Fund may be required to withhold U.S. federal income tax on all distributions and redemptions payable to shareholders who fail to provide their correct taxpayer identification number, fail to make certain required certifications, or who have been notified by the Internal Revenue Service that they are subject to backup withholding. The current backup withholding rate is applied.
If a shareholder does not meet the requirements of the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (“FATCA”), the Fund may be required to impose a 30% U.S. withholding tax on distributions and proceeds from the sale or other disposition of shares in the Fund. FATCA withholding will generally apply to payments of dividends made on or after June 30, 2014, and payments of gross proceeds from sales of Fund shares made on or after December 31, 2016. Shareholders should consult their individual tax advisors regarding the possible implications of this legislation.
When shareholders sell Fund shares from a taxable account, they typically receive information on their tax forms that calculates their gain or loss using the average cost method. Prior to January 1, 2012, this information was not reported to the IRS, and shareholders had the option of calculating gains or losses using an alternative IRS permitted method. In accordance with legislation passed by Congress in 2008, however, your intermediary (or the Fund, if you hold Class I Shares directly with Janus) began reporting cost basis information to the IRS for shares purchased on or after January 1, 2012 and sold thereafter. Your intermediary (or the Fund) will permit shareholders to elect their preferred cost basis method. In the absence of an election, your cost basis method will be your intermediary’s default method, unless you hold Class I Shares directly with Janus in which case the Fund will use an average cost basis method. Please consult your tax adviser to determine the appropriate cost basis method for your particular tax situation and to learn more about how the new cost basis reporting laws apply to you and your investments.
C-16 |
Taxation of the Fund
Dividends, interest, and some capital gains received by the Fund on foreign securities may be subject to foreign tax withholding or other foreign taxes. If the Fund is eligible, it may from year to year make the election permitted under Section 853 of the Internal Revenue Code to pass through such taxes to shareholders as a foreign tax credit. If such an election is not made, any foreign taxes paid or accrued will represent an expense to the Fund.
Certain fund transactions may involve short sales, futures, options, swap agreements, hedged investments, and other similar transactions, and may be subject to special provisions of the Internal Revenue Code that, among other things, can potentially affect the character, amount, and timing of distributions to shareholders, and utilization of capital loss carryforwards. The Fund will monitor its transactions and may make certain tax elections and use certain investment strategies where applicable in order to mitigate the effect of these tax provisions, if possible.
The Fund does not expect to pay any federal income or excise taxes because it intends to meet certain requirements of the Internal Revenue Code, including the distribution each year of all its net investment income and net capital gains. It is important that the Fund meets these requirements so that any earnings on your investment will not be subject to federal income taxes twice. Funds that invest in partnerships may be subject to state tax liabilities.
FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
The financial highlights tables are intended to help you understand the Fund’s financial performance for each fiscal period shown. Items “Net asset value, beginning of period” through “Net asset value, end of period” reflect financial results for a single Fund Share. The gross expense ratio reflects expenses prior to any expense offset arrangement and waivers (reimbursements), if applicable. The net expense ratio reflects expenses after any expense offset arrangement and waivers (reimbursements), if applicable. The information for the fiscal periods shown has been audited by [to be updated], whose report, along with the Fund’s financial statements, is included in the Annual Report, which is available upon request, and [to be updated] into the Fund’s SAI.
The total returns in the tables represent the rate that an investor would have earned (or lost) on an investment in the shares of the Fund (assuming reinvestment of all dividends and distributions).

GLOSSARY OF INVESTMENT TERMS
This glossary provides a more detailed description of some of the types of securities, investment strategies, and other instruments in which the Funds may invest, as well as some general investment terms. The Funds may invest in these instruments to the extent permitted by their investment objectives and policies. The Funds are not limited by this discussion and may invest in any other types of instruments not precluded by the policies discussed elsewhere in this Prospectus/Information Statement.
EQUITY AND DEBT SECURITIES
Average-Weighted Effective Maturity is a measure of a bond’s maturity. The stated maturity of a bond is the date when the issuer must repay the bond’s entire principal value to an investor. Some types of bonds may also have an “effective maturity” that is shorter than the stated date due to prepayment or call provisions. Securities without prepayment or call provisions generally have an effective maturity equal to their stated maturity. Average-weighted effective maturity is calculated by averaging the effective maturity of bonds held by a Fund with each effective maturity “weighted” according to the percentage of net assets that it represents.
Bank loans include institutionally-traded floating and fixed-rate debt securities generally acquired as a participation interest in or assignment of a loan originated by a lender or financial institution. Assignments and participations involve credit, interest rate, and liquidity risk. Interest rates on floating rate securities adjust with interest rate changes and/or issuer credit quality. If a Fund purchases a participation interest, it may only be able to enforce its rights through the lender and may assume the credit risk of both the borrower and the lender. There are also risks involved in purchasing assignments. If a loan is foreclosed, a Fund may become part owner of any collateral securing the loan and may bear the costs and liabilities associated with owning and disposing of any collateral. The Fund could be held liable as a co-lender. In addition, there is no assurance that the liquidation of any collateral from a secured loan would satisfy a borrower’s obligations or that any collateral could be liquidated. A Fund may have difficulty trading assignments and participations to third parties or selling such securities in secondary markets, which in turn may affect the Fund’s NAV.
Bonds are debt securities issued by a company, municipality, government, or government agency. The issuer of a bond is required to pay the holder the amount of the loan (or par value of the bond) at a specified maturity and to make scheduled interest payments.
Certificates of Participation (“COPs”) are certificates representing an interest in a pool of securities. Holders are entitled to a proportionate interest in the underlying securities. Municipal lease obligations are often sold in the form of COPs. Refer to “Municipal lease obligations” below.
Commercial paper is a short-term debt obligation with a maturity ranging from 1 to 270 days issued by banks, corporations, and other borrowers to investors seeking to invest idle cash. A Fund may purchase commercial paper issued in private placements under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”).
Common stocks are equity securities representing shares of ownership in a company and usually carry voting rights and earn dividends. Unlike preferred stock, dividends on common stock are not fixed but are declared at the discretion of the issuer’s board of directors.
Convertible securities are preferred stocks or bonds that pay a fixed dividend or interest payment and are convertible into common stock at a specified price or conversion ratio.
Debt securities are securities representing money borrowed that must be repaid at a later date. Such securities have specific maturities and usually a specific rate of interest or an original purchase discount.
Depositary receipts are receipts for shares of a foreign-based corporation that entitle the holder to dividends and capital gains on the underlying security. Receipts include those issued by domestic banks (American Depositary Receipts), foreign banks (Global or European Depositary Receipts), and broker-dealers (depositary shares).

Duration is the time it will take investors to recoup their investment in a bond. Unlike average maturity, duration reflects both principal and interest payments. Generally, the higher the coupon rate on a bond, the lower its duration will be. The duration of a bond portfolio is calculated by averaging the duration of bonds held by a Fund with each duration “weighted” according to the percentage of net assets that it represents. Because duration accounts for interest payments, a Fund’s duration is usually shorter than its average maturity.
Equity securities generally include domestic and foreign common stocks; preferred stocks; securities convertible into common stocks or preferred stocks; warrants to purchase common or preferred stocks; and other securities with equity characteristics.
Exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”) are index-based investment companies which hold substantially all of their assets in securities with equity characteristics. As a shareholder of another investment company, a Fund would bear its pro rata portion of the other investment company’s expenses, including advisory fees, in addition to the expenses the Fund bears directly in connection with its own operations.
Fixed-income securities are securities that pay a specified rate of return. The term generally includes short- and long-term government, corporate, and municipal obligations that pay a specified rate of interest, dividends, or coupons for a specified period of time. Coupon and dividend rates may be fixed for the life of the issue or, in the case of adjustable and floating rate securities, for a shorter period.
High-yield/high-risk bonds are bonds that are rated below investment grade by the primary rating agencies (i.e., BB+ or lower by Standard & Poor’s and Fitch, or Ba or lower by Moody’s). Other terms commonly used to describe such bonds include “lower rated bonds,” “non-investment grade bonds,” and “junk bonds.”
Industrial development bonds are revenue bonds that are issued by a public authority but which may be backed only by the credit and security of a private issuer and may involve greater credit risk. Refer to “Municipal securities” below.
Mortgage- and asset-backed securities are shares in a pool of mortgages or other debt instruments. These securities are generally pass-through securities, which means that principal and interest payments on the underlying securities (less servicing fees) are passed through to shareholders on a pro rata basis. These securities involve prepayment risk, which is the risk that the underlying mortgages or other debt may be refinanced or paid off prior to their maturities during periods of declining interest rates. In that case, a Fund may have to reinvest the proceeds from the securities at a lower rate. Potential market gains on a security subject to prepayment risk may be more limited than potential market gains on a comparable security that is not subject to prepayment risk.
Mortgage dollar rolls are transactions in which a Fund sells a mortgage-related security, such as a security issued by Government National Mortgage Association, to a dealer and simultaneously agrees to purchase a similar security (but not the same security) in the future at a predetermined price. A “dollar roll” can be viewed as a collateralized borrowing in which a Fund pledges a mortgage-related security to a dealer to obtain cash.
Municipal lease obligations are revenue bonds backed by leases or installment purchase contracts for property or equipment. Lease obligations may not be backed by the issuing municipality’s credit and may involve risks not normally associated with general obligation bonds and other revenue bonds. For example, their interest may become taxable if the lease is assigned and the holders may incur losses if the issuer does not appropriate funds for the lease payments on an annual basis, which may result in termination of the lease and possible default.
Municipal securities are bonds or notes issued by a U.S. state or political subdivision. A municipal security may be a general obligation backed by the full faith and credit (i.e., the borrowing and taxing power) of a municipality or a revenue obligation paid out of the revenues of a designated project, facility, or revenue source.
Pass-through securities are shares or certificates of interest in a pool of debt obligations that have been repackaged by an intermediary, such as a bank or broker-dealer.
Passive foreign investment companies (“PFICs”) are any foreign corporations which generate certain amounts of passive income or hold certain amounts of assets for the production of passive income. Passive income includes dividends, interest, royalties, rents, and annuities. To avoid taxes and interest that a Fund must pay if these investments are profitable, the Fund may
D-2 |
make various elections permitted by the tax laws. These elections could require that a Fund recognize taxable income, which in turn must be distributed, before the securities are sold and before cash is received to pay the distributions.
Pay-in-kind bonds are debt securities that normally give the issuer an option to pay cash at a coupon payment date or give the holder of the security a similar bond with the same coupon rate and a face value equal to the amount of the coupon payment that would have been made.
Preferred stocks are equity securities that generally pay dividends at a specified rate and have preference over common stock in the payment of dividends and liquidation. Preferred stock generally does not carry voting rights.
Real estate investment trust (“REIT”) is an investment trust that operates through the pooled capital of many investors who buy its shares. Investments are in direct ownership of either income property or mortgage loans.
Rule 144A securities are securities that are not registered for sale to the general public under the 1933 Act, but that may be resold to certain institutional investors.
Standby commitment is a right to sell a specified underlying security or securities within a specified period of time and at an exercise price equal to the amortized cost of the underlying security or securities plus accrued interest, if any, at the time of exercise, that may be sold, transferred, or assigned only with the underlying security or securities. A standby commitment entitles the holder to receive same day settlement, and will be considered to be from the party to whom the investment company will look for payment of the exercise price.
Step coupon bonds are high-quality issues with above-market interest rates and a coupon that increases over the life of the bond. They may pay monthly, semiannual, or annual interest payments. On the date of each coupon payment, the issuer decides whether to call the bond at par, or whether to extend it until the next payment date at the new coupon rate.
Strip bonds are debt securities that are stripped of their interest (usually by a financial intermediary) after the securities are issued. The market value of these securities generally fluctuates more in response to changes in interest rates than interest-paying securities of comparable maturity.
Tender option bonds are relatively long-term bonds that are coupled with the option to tender the securities to a bank, broker-dealer, or other financial institution at periodic intervals and receive the face value of the bond. This investment structure is commonly used as a means of enhancing a security’s liquidity.
U.S. Government securities include direct obligations of the U.S. Government that are supported by its full faith and credit. Treasury bills have initial maturities of less than one year, Treasury notes have initial maturities of one to ten years, and Treasury bonds may be issued with any maturity but generally have maturities of at least ten years. U.S. Government securities also include indirect obligations of the U.S. Government that are issued by federal agencies and government sponsored entities. Unlike Treasury securities, agency securities generally are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government. Some agency securities are supported by the right of the issuer to borrow from the Treasury, others are supported by the discretionary authority of the U.S. Government to purchase the agency’s obligations, and others are supported only by the credit of the sponsoring agency.
Variable and floating rate securities have variable or floating rates of interest and, under certain limited circumstances, may have varying principal amounts. Variable and floating rate securities pay interest at rates that are adjusted periodically according to a specified formula, usually with reference to some interest rate index or market interest rate (the “underlying index”). The floating rate tends to decrease the security’s price sensitivity to changes in interest rates.
Warrants are securities, typically issued with preferred stock or bonds, which give the holder the right to buy a proportionate amount of common stock at a specified price. The specified price is usually higher than the market price at the time of issuance of the warrant. The right may last for a period of years or indefinitely.
Zero coupon bonds are debt securities that do not pay regular interest at regular intervals, but are issued at a discount from face value. The discount approximates the total amount of interest the security will accrue from the date of issuance to maturity. The market value of these securities generally fluctuates more in response to changes in interest rates than interest-paying securities.

FUTURES, OPTIONS, AND OTHER DERIVATIVES
Credit default swaps are a specific kind of counterparty agreement that allows the transfer of third party credit risk from one party to the other. One party in the swap is a lender and faces credit risk from a third party, and the counterparty in the credit default swap agrees to insure this risk in exchange for regular periodic payments.
Derivatives are financial instruments whose performance is derived from the performance of another asset (stock, bond, commodity, currency, interest rate or market index). Types of derivatives can include, but are not limited to options, forward contracts, swaps, and futures contracts.
Equity-linked structured notes are derivative securities which are specially designed to combine the characteristics of one or more underlying securities and their equity derivatives in a single note form. The return and/or yield or income component may be based on the performance of the underlying equity securities, an equity index, and/or option positions. Equity-linked structured notes are typically offered in limited transactions by financial institutions in either registered or non-registered form. An investment in equity-linked notes creates exposure to the credit risk of the issuing financial institution, as well as to the market risk of the underlying securities. There is no guaranteed return of principal with these securities, and the appreciation potential of these securities may be limited by a maximum payment or call right. In certain cases, equity-linked notes may be more volatile and less liquid than less complex securities or other types of fixed-income securities. Such securities may exhibit price behavior that does not correlate with other fixed-income securities.
Equity swaps involve the exchange by two parties of future cash flow (e.g., one cash flow based on a referenced interest rate and the other based on the performance of stock or a stock index).
Forward contracts are contracts to purchase or sell a specified amount of a financial instrument for an agreed upon price at a specified time. Forward contracts are not currently exchange-traded and are typically negotiated on an individual basis. A Fund may enter into forward currency contracts for investment purposes or to hedge against declines in the value of securities denominated in, or whose value is tied to, a currency other than the U.S. dollar or to reduce the impact of currency appreciation on purchases of such securities. It may also enter into forward contracts to purchase or sell securities or other financial indices.
Futures contracts are contracts that obligate the buyer to receive and the seller to deliver an instrument or money at a specified price on a specified date. A Fund may buy and sell futures contracts on foreign currencies, securities, and financial indices including indices of U.S. Government, foreign government, equity, or fixed-income securities. A Fund may also buy options on futures contracts. An option on a futures contract gives the buyer the right, but not the obligation, to buy or sell a futures contract at a specified price on or before a specified date. Futures contracts and options on futures are standardized and traded on designated exchanges.
Indexed/structured securities are typically short- to intermediate-term debt securities whose value at maturity or interest rate is linked to currencies, interest rates, equity securities, indices, commodity prices, or other financial indicators. Such securities may be positively or negatively indexed (e.g., their value may increase or decrease if the reference index or instrument appreciates). Indexed/structured securities may have return characteristics similar to direct investments in the underlying instruments and may be more volatile than the underlying instruments. A Fund bears the market risk of an investment in the underlying instruments, as well as the credit risk of the issuer.
Interest rate swaps involve the exchange by two parties of their respective commitments to pay or receive interest (e.g., an exchange of floating rate payments for fixed rate payments).
Inverse floaters are debt instruments whose interest rate bears an inverse relationship to the interest rate on another instrument or index. For example, upon reset, the interest rate payable on the inverse floater may go down when the underlying index has risen. Certain inverse floaters may have an interest rate reset mechanism that multiplies the effects of change in the underlying index. Such mechanism may increase the volatility of the security’s market value.
Options are the right, but not the obligation, to buy or sell a specified amount of securities or other assets on or before a fixed date at a predetermined price. A Fund may purchase and write put and call options on securities, securities indices, and foreign currencies. A Fund may purchase or write such options individually or in combination.

Participatory notes are derivative securities which are linked to the performance of an underlying Indian security and which allow investors to gain market exposure to Indian securities without trading directly in the local Indian market.
Total return swaps involve an exchange by two parties in which one party makes payments based on a set rate, either fixed or variable, while the other party makes payments based on the return of an underlying asset, which includes both the income it generates and any capital gains over the payment period.
OTHER INVESTMENTS, STRATEGIES, AND/OR TECHNIQUES
Cash sweep program is an arrangement in which a Fund’s uninvested cash balance is used to purchase shares of affiliated or non-affiliated money market funds or cash management pooled investment vehicles at the end of each day.
Diversification is a classification given to a fund under the 1940 Act. Funds are classified as either “diversified” or “nondiversified.” To be classified as “diversified” under the 1940 Act, a fund may not, with respect to 75% of its total assets, invest more than 5% of its total assets in any issuer and may not own more than 10% of the outstanding voting securities of an issuer. A fund that is classified as “nondiversified” under the 1940 Act, on the other hand, has the flexibility to take larger positions in a smaller number of issuers than a fund that is classified as “diversified.” However, because the appreciation or depreciation of a single security may have a greater impact on the net asset value of a fund which is classified as nondiversified, its share price can be expected to fluctuate more than a comparable fund which is classified as diversified.
Industry concentration for purposes under the 1940 Act is the investment of 25% or more of a Fund’s total assets in an industry or group of industries.
Leverage occurs when a Fund increases its assets available for investment using reverse repurchase agreements or other similar transactions. In addition, other investment techniques, such as short sales and certain derivative transactions, can create a leveraging effect. Engaging in transactions using leverage or those having a leveraging effect subjects a Fund to certain risks. Leverage can magnify the effect of any gains or losses, causing a Fund to be more volatile than if it had not been leveraged. Certain commodity-linked derivative investments may subject a Fund to leveraged market exposure to commodities. In addition, a Fund’s assets that are used as collateral to secure short sale transactions may decrease in value while the short positions are outstanding, which may force the Fund to use its other assets to increase collateral. There is no assurance that a leveraging strategy will be successful.
Market capitalization is the most commonly used measure of the size and value of a company. It is computed by multiplying the current market price of a share of the company’s stock by the total number of its shares outstanding. Market capitalization is an important investment criterion for certain funds, while others do not emphasize investments in companies of any particular size.
Net long is a term used to describe when a Fund’s assets committed to long positions exceed those committed to short positions.
Repurchase agreements involve the purchase of a security by a Fund and a simultaneous agreement by the seller (generally a bank or dealer) to repurchase the security from the Fund at a specified date or upon demand. This technique offers a method of earning income on idle cash. These securities involve the risk that the seller will fail to repurchase the security, as agreed. In that case, a Fund will bear the risk of market value fluctuations until the security can be sold and may encounter delays and incur costs in liquidating the security.
Reverse repurchase agreements involve the sale of a security by a Fund to another party (generally a bank or dealer) in return for cash and an agreement by the Fund to buy the security back at a specified price and time. This technique will be used primarily to provide cash to satisfy unusually high redemption requests, or for other temporary or emergency purposes.
Short sales in which a Fund may engage may be either “short sales against the box” or other short sales. Short sales against the box involve selling short a security that a Fund owns, or the Fund has the right to obtain the amount of the security sold short at a specified date in the future. A Fund may also enter into a short sale to hedge against anticipated declines in the market price of a security or to reduce portfolio volatility. If the value of a security sold short increases prior to the scheduled delivery date, the Fund loses the opportunity to participate in the gain. For short sales, the Fund will incur a loss if the value of a security increases during this period because it will be paying more for the security than it has received from the purchaser in the short sale. If the price declines during this period, a Fund will realize a short-term capital gain. Although a Fund’s potential for gain as
D-5 |
a result of a short sale is limited to the price at which it sold the security short less the cost of borrowing the security, its potential for loss is theoretically unlimited because there is no limit to the cost of replacing the borrowed security.
When-issued, delayed delivery, and forward commitment transactions generally involve the purchase of a security with payment and delivery at some time in the future – i.e., beyond normal settlement. A Fund does not earn interest on such securities until settlement and bears the risk of market value fluctuations in between the purchase and settlement dates. New issues of stocks and bonds, private placements, and U.S. Government securities may be sold in this manner.

Notes to Pro Forma Financial Statements (unaudited)
The following section describes the organization and significant accounting policies and provides more detailed information about the schedules and tables that appear throughout this report. In addition, the Notes to Pro Forma Financial Statements explain the methods used in preparing and presenting this report.
1. Organization and Significant Accounting Policies
INTECH U.S. Growth Fund and INTECH U.S. Value Fund (each individually a “Fund” and collectively, the “Funds”) are series funds. The Funds are part of Janus Investment Fund (the “Trust”), which is organized as a Massachusetts business trust and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. The Trust currently offers forty-six funds which include multiple series of shares, with differing investment objectives and policies. The Funds invest primarily in common stocks and are each classified as diversified, as defined in the 1940 Act.
The accompanying unaudited pro forma financial statements are presented to show the effect of the proposed merger of INTECH U.S. Growth Fund into INTECH U.S. Value Fund. INTECH U.S. Growth Fund investors will receive a number of full and fractional shares of INTECH U.S. Value Fund approximately equivalent in dollar value to their shares held in INTECH U.S. Growth Fund. Specifically, all or substantially all of the assets of INTECH U.S. Growth Fund will be transferred to INTECH U.S. Value Fund solely in exchange for shares of INTECH U.S. Growth Fund with a value approximately equal to the value of INTECH U.S. Growth Fund’s assets net of liabilities, and the assumption by INTECH U.S. Value Fund of all liabilities of INTECH U.S. Growth Fund. Immediately following the transfer, the shares of INTECH U.S. Growth Fund received by INTECH U.S. Value Fund will be distributed pro rata to INTECH U.S. Value Fund shareholders and INTECH U.S. Growth Fund will subsequently be liquidated. The purpose of the merger is based on similarities of the Funds’ investment objectives, strategies and policies, as well as the anticipated expense efficiencies due to the larger asset base of the combined fund after the merger. INTECH U.S. Value Fund will be deemed the performance, legal, and accounting survivor for the merger.
The reorganization is intended to qualify as a tax-free reorganization for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The unaudited pro forma combined financial statements are presented for informational purposes and may not be representative of what the actual combined financial statements would have been had the reorganization occurred at July 1, 2013.The unaudited pro forma schedules of investments and statements of assets and liabilities reflect the financial position of the Funds at June 30, 2014 as if the reorganization had occurred on that date. The unaudited pro forma statements of operations reflect the results of operations of the Funds for the twelve month period ended June 30, 2014 as if the reorganization had occurred on July 1, 2013. In accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, the historical cost of investment securities will be carried forward to the surviving fund and the results of operations for pre-combination periods of the surviving fund will not be restated. The accompanying pro forma financial statements should be read in conjunction
24 |
with the financial statements of the Funds included in their annual reports dated June 30, 2014.
The following accounting policies have been consistently followed by the Funds and are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Investment Valuation
Securities held by the Funds are valued in accordance with policies and procedures established by and under the supervision of the Trustees (the “Valuation Procedures”). Equity securities traded on a domestic securities exchange are generally valued at the closing prices on the primary market or exchange on which they trade. If such price is lacking for the trading period immediately preceding the time of determination, such securities are valued at their current bid price. Equity securities that are traded on a foreign exchange are generally valued at the closing prices on such markets. In the event that there is no current trading volume on a particular security in such foreign exchange, the bid price from the primary exchange is generally used to value the security. Securities that are traded on the over-the-counter (“OTC”) markets are generally valued at their closing or latest bid prices as available. Foreign securities and currencies are converted to U.S. dollars using the applicable exchange rate in effect at the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”). Each Fund will determine the market value of individual securities held by it by using prices provided by one or more professional pricing services or, as needed, by obtaining market quotations from independent broker-dealers. Certain short-term securities maturing within 60 days or less are valued on an amortized cost basis. Debt securities with a remaining maturity of greater than 60 days are valued in accordance with the evaluated bid price supplied by the pricing service that is intended to reflect market value. The evaluated bid price supplied by the pricing service is an evaluation that may consider factors such as security prices, yields, maturities and ratings. Securities for which market quotations or evaluated prices are not readily available or deemed unreliable are valued at fair value determined in good faith under the Valuation Procedures. Circumstances in which fair value pricing may be utilized include, but are not limited to: (i) a significant event that may affect the securities of a single issuer, such as a merger, bankruptcy, or significant issuer-specific development; (ii) an event that may affect an entire market, such as a natural disaster or significant governmental action; (iii) a nonsignificant event such as a market closing early or not opening, or a security trading halt; and (iv) pricing of a nonvalued security and a restricted or nonpublic security. The Funds use systematic fair valuation models provided by independent third parties to value international equity securities in order to adjust for stale pricing, which may occur between the close of certain foreign exchanges and the close of the NYSE.
Investment Transactions and Investment Income
Investment transactions are accounted for as of the date purchased or sold (trade date). Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Certain dividends from foreign securities will be recorded as soon as the Trust is informed of the dividend, if such information is obtained subsequent to the ex-dividend date. Dividends from foreign
25 |
securities may be subject to withholding taxes in foreign jurisdictions. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis and includes amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts. Gains and losses are determined on the identified cost basis, which is the same basis used for federal income tax purposes. Income, as well as gains and losses, both realized and unrealized, are allocated daily to each class of shares based upon the ratio of net assets represented by each class as a percentage of total net assets.
Expenses
Each Fund bears expenses incurred specifically on its behalf, as well as a portion of general expenses, which may be allocated pro rata to each Fund. Each class of shares bears a portion of general expenses, which are allocated daily to each class of shares based upon the ratio of net assets represented by each class as a percentage of total net assets. Expenses directly attributable to a specific class of shares are charged against the operations of such class.
The Funds will not pay any fees associated with the Merger. Janus Capital will bear those fees.
Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Indemnifications
In the normal course of business, the Funds may enter into contracts that contain provisions for indemnification of other parties against certain potential liabilities. A Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, and would involve future claims that may be made against a Fund that have not yet occurred. Currently, the risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.
Foreign Currency Translations
The Funds do not isolate that portion of the results of operations resulting from the effect of changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from the fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held at the date of the financial statements. Net unrealized appreciation or depreciation of investments and foreign currency translations arise from changes in the value of assets and liabilities, including investments in securities held at the date of the financial statements, resulting from changes in the exchange rates and changes in market prices of securities held.
Currency gains and losses are also calculated on payables and receivables that are denominated in foreign currencies. The payables and receivables are generally related to foreign security transactions and income translations.
26 |
Foreign currency-denominated assets and forward currency contracts may involve more risks than domestic transactions, including currency risk, political and economic risk, regulatory risk and equity risk. Risks may arise from the potential inability of a counterparty to meet the terms of a contract and from unanticipated movements in the value of foreign currencies relative to the U.S. dollar.
Dividend Distributions
The Funds generally declare and distribute dividends of net investment income and realized capital gains (if any) annually.
The Funds may make certain investments in real estate investment trusts (“REITs”) which pay dividends to their shareholders based upon funds available from operations. It is quite common for these dividends to exceed the REITs’ taxable earnings and profits, resulting in the excess portion of such dividends being designated as a return of capital. If the Funds distribute such amounts, such distributions could constitute a return of capital to shareholders for federal income tax purposes.
Federal Income Taxes
The Funds intend to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company and distribute all of their taxable income in accordance with the requirements of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code. Management has analyzed each Fund’s tax positions taken for all open federal income tax years, generally a three-year period, and has concluded that no provision for federal income tax is required in the Funds’ pro forma financial statements. The Funds are not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months. The tax cost of investments will remain unchanged for the combined fund.
Valuation Inputs Summary
In accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) standard guidance, the Funds utilize the “Fair Value Measurements” to define fair value, establish a framework for measuring fair value, and expand disclosure requirements regarding fair value measurements. The Fair Value Measurement Standard does not require new fair value measurements, but is applied to the extent that other accounting pronouncements require or permit fair value measurements. This standard emphasizes that fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. Various inputs are used in determining the value of the Funds’ investments defined pursuant to this standard. These inputs are summarized into three broad levels:
Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.
Level 2 – Prices determined using other significant observable inputs. Observable inputs are inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing a security and are developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity. These may include quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, and others.
27 |
Debt securities may be valued in accordance with the evaluated bid price supplied by the pricing service and generally categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. Securities traded on OTC markets and listed securities for which no sales are reported are valued at the latest bid price (or yield equivalent thereof) obtained from one or more dealers transacting in a market for such securities or by a pricing service approved by the Funds’ Trustees and are categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. Short-term securities with maturities of 60 days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value and are categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. Other securities that may be categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy include, but are not limited to, preferred stocks, bank loans, swaps, investments in unregistered investment companies, options, and forward contracts. The Funds use systematic fair valuation models provided by independent third parties to value international equity securities in order to adjust for stale pricing, which may occur between the close of certain foreign exchanges and the close of the NYSE. These are generally categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy.
Level 3 – Prices determined using significant unobservable inputs. In situations where quoted prices or observable inputs are unavailable or deemed less relevant (for example, when there is little or no market activity for an investment at the end of the period), unobservable inputs may be used. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions about the factors market participants would use in pricing the security and would be based on the best information available under the circumstances.
There have been no significant changes in valuation techniques used in valuing any such positions held by the Funds since the beginning of the fiscal year.
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. The summary of inputs used as of June 30, 2014 to value each Funds’ investments in securities and other financial instruments is included in the “Valuation Inputs Summary” on the Notes to Pro Forma Schedules of Investments.
The Funds did not hold a significant amount of Level 3 securities as of June 30, 2014.
There were no transfers between Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy during the year. The Funds recognize transfers between the levels as of the beginning of the fiscal year.
2. Other Investments and Strategies
Additional Investment Risk
The financial crisis that began in 2008 caused a significant decline in the value and liquidity of many securities of issuers worldwide in the equity and fixed-income/credit markets. In response to the crisis, the United States and certain foreign governments,
28 |
along with the U.S. Federal Reserve and certain foreign central banks took steps to support the financial markets. The withdrawal of this support, a failure of measures put in place to respond to the crisis, or investor perception that such efforts were not sufficient each could negatively affect financial markets generally, and the value and liquidity of specific securities. In addition, policy and legislative changes in the United States and in other countries continue to impact many aspects of financial regulation. The effect of these changes on the markets, and the practical implications for market participants, including a Fund, may not be fully known for some time. As a result, it may also be unusually difficult to identify both investment risks and opportunities, which could limit or preclude a Fund’s ability to achieve its investment objective. Therefore, it is important to understand that the value of your investment may fall, sometimes sharply, and you could lose money.
The enactment of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the “Dodd-Frank Act”) in July 2010 provided for widespread regulation of financial institutions, consumer financial products and services, broker-dealers, OTC derivatives, investment advisers, credit rating agencies, and mortgage lending, which expands federal oversight in the financial sector, including the investment management industry. Many provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act remain pending and will be implemented through future rulemaking. Therefore, the ultimate impact of the Dodd-Frank Act and the regulations under the Dodd-Frank Act on the Funds and the investment management industry as a whole, is not yet certain.
A number of countries in the European Union (“EU”) have experienced severe economic and financial difficulties. As a result, financial markets in the EU have been subject to increased volatility and declines in asset values and liquidity. Responses to these financial problems by European governments, central banks, and others, including austerity measures and reforms, may not work, may result in social unrest, and may limit future growth and economic recovery or have other unintended consequences. Further defaults or restructurings by governments and others of their debt could have additional adverse effects on economies, financial markets, and asset valuations around the world.
Certain areas of the world have historically been prone to and economically sensitive to environmental events such as, but not limited to, hurricanes, earthquakes, typhoons, flooding, tidal waves, tsunamis, erupting volcanoes, wildfires or droughts, tornadoes, mudslides, or other weather-related phenomena. Such disasters, and the resulting physical or economic damage, could have a severe and negative impact on a Fund’s investment portfolio and, in the longer term, could impair the ability of issuers in which the Fund invests to conduct their businesses as they would under normal conditions. Adverse weather conditions may also have a particularly significant negative effect on issuers in the agricultural sector and on insurance companies that insure against the impact of natural disasters.
Counterparties
Fund transactions involving a counterparty are subject to the risk that the counterparty or a third party will not fulfill its obligation to a Fund (“counterparty risk”). Counterparty
29 |
risk may arise because of the counterparty’s financial condition (i.e., financial difficulties, bankruptcy, or insolvency), market activities and developments, or other reasons, whether foreseen or not. A counterparty’s inability to fulfill its obligation may result in significant financial loss to a Fund. A Fund may be unable to recover its investment from the counterparty or may obtain a limited recovery, and/or recovery may be delayed. The extent of a Fund’s exposure to counterparty risk with respect to financial assets and liabilities approximates its carrying value. See the “Offsetting Assets and Liabilities” section of this Note for further details.
A Fund may be exposed to counterparty risk through participation in various programs including, but not limited to, lending its securities to third parties, cash sweep arrangements whereby a Fund’s cash balance is invested in one or more types of cash management vehicles, as well as investments in, but not limited to, repurchase agreements, debt securities, and derivatives, including various types of swaps, futures and options. A Fund intends to enter into financial transactions with counterparties that Janus Capital believes to be creditworthy at the time of the transaction. There is always the risk that Janus Capital’s analysis of a counterparty’s creditworthiness is incorrect or may change due to market conditions. To the extent that a Fund focuses its transactions with a limited number of counterparties, it will have greater exposure to the risks associated with one or more counterparties.
Offsetting Assets and Liabilities
The Funds present gross and net information about transactions that are either offset in the financial statements or subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement or similar agreement with a designated counterparty, regardless of whether the transactions are actually offset in the Pro Forma Statements of Assets and Liabilities.
In order to better define its contractual rights and to secure rights that will help a Fund mitigate its counterparty risk, a Fund may enter into an International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. Master Agreement (“ISDA Master Agreement”) or similar agreement with its derivative contract counterparties. An ISDA Master Agreement is a bilateral agreement between a Fund and a counterparty that governs OTC derivatives and forward foreign currency exchange contracts and typically contains, among other things, collateral posting terms and netting provisions in the event of a default and/or termination event. Under an ISDA Master Agreement, in the event of a default and/or termination event, a Fund may offset with each counterparty certain derivative financial instruments’ payables and/or receivables with collateral held and/or posted and create one single net payment. Note that for financial reporting purposes, a Fund does not offset certain derivative financial instruments’ payables and receivables and related collateral on the Pro Forma Statements of Assets and Liabilities.
The following tables present gross amounts of recognized assets and liabilities and the net amounts after deducting collateral that has been pledged by counterparties or has been pledged to counterparties (if applicable). For corresponding information grouped by type of instrument, see the Pro Forma Schedules of Investments.

(b) Collateral pledged is limited to the net outstanding amount due to/from an individual counterparty. The actual collateral amounts pledged may exceed these amounts and may fluctuate in value.
Deutsche Bank AG acts as securities lending agent and a limited purpose custodian or subcustodian to receive and disburse cash balances and cash collateral, hold short-term investments, hold collateral, and perform other custodian functions. Securities on loan will be continuously secured by collateral which may consist of cash, U.S. Government securities, domestic and foreign short-term debt instruments, letters of credit, time deposits, repurchase agreements, money market mutual funds or other money market accounts, or such other collateral as permitted by the SEC. The value of the collateral must be at least 102% of the market value of the loaned securities that are denominated in U.S. dollars and 105% of the market value of the loaned securities that are not denominated in U.S. dollars. Upon receipt of cash collateral, Janus Capital currently intends to invest the cash collateral in a cash management vehicle for which Janus Capital serves as investment adviser, Janus Cash Collateral Fund LLC. Loaned securities and related collateral are marked-to-market each business day based upon the market value of the loaned securities at the close of business, employing the most recent available pricing information. Collateral levels are then adjusted based on this mark-to-market evaluation.
Real Estate Investing
To the extent that real estate-related securities may be included in a Fund’s named benchmark index, INTECH’s mathematical investment process may select equity and debt securities of real estate-related companies. Such companies may include those in the real estate industry or real estate-related industries. These securities may include common stocks, preferred stocks, and other equity securities, including, but not limited to, mortgage-backed securities, real estate-backed securities, securities of REITs and similar REIT-like entities. A REIT is a trust that invests in real estate-related projects, such as
31 |
properties, mortgage loans, and construction loans. REITs are generally categorized as equity, mortgage, or hybrid REITs. A REIT may be listed on an exchange or traded OTC.
Securities Lending
Under procedures adopted by the Trustees, certain Funds may seek to earn additional income by lending securities to qualified parties. Deutsche Bank AG acts as securities lending agent and a limited purpose custodian or subcustodian to receive and disburse cash balances and cash collateral, hold short-term investments, hold collateral, and perform other custodian functions. Each Fund may lend portfolio securities in an amount equal to up to 1/3 of its total assets as determined at the time of the loan origination. There is the risk of delay in recovering a loaned security or the risk of loss in collateral rights if the borrower fails financially. In addition, Janus Capital makes efforts to balance the benefits and risks from granting such loans. All loans will be continuously secured by collateral which may consist of cash, U.S. Government securities, domestic and foreign short-term debt instruments, letters of credit, time deposits, repurchase agreements, money market mutual funds or other money market accounts, or such other collateral as permitted by the SEC. If a Fund is unable to recover a security on loan, the Fund may use the collateral to purchase replacement securities in the market. There is a risk that the value of the collateral could decrease below the cost of the replacement security by the time the replacement investment is made, resulting in a loss to the Fund.
Upon receipt of cash collateral, Janus Capital may invest it in affiliated or non-affiliated cash management vehicles, whether registered or unregistered entities, as permitted by the 1940 Act and rules promulgated thereunder. Janus Capital currently intends to invest the cash collateral in a cash management vehicle for which Janus Capital serves as investment adviser, Janus Cash Collateral Fund LLC. An investment in Janus Cash Collateral Fund LLC is generally subject to the same risks that shareholders experience when investing in similarly structured vehicles, such as the potential for significant fluctuations in assets as a result of the purchase and redemption activity of the securities lending program, a decline in the value of the collateral, and possible liquidity issues. Such risks may delay the return of the cash collateral and cause a Fund to violate its agreement to return the cash collateral to a borrower in a timely manner. As adviser to the Funds and Janus Cash Collateral Fund LLC, Janus Capital has an inherent conflict of interest as a result of its fiduciary duties to both the Funds and Janus Cash Collateral Fund LLC. Additionally, Janus Capital receives an investment advisory fee of 0.05% for managing Janus Cash Collateral Fund LLC, but it may not receive a fee for managing certain other affiliated cash management vehicles in which the Funds may invest, and therefore may have an incentive to allocate preferred investment opportunities to investment vehicles for which it is receiving a fee.
The value of the collateral must be at least 102% of the market value of the loaned securities that are denominated in U.S. dollars and 105% of the market value of the loaned securities that are not denominated in U.S. dollars. Loaned securities and related collateral are marked-to-market each business day based upon the market value of the loaned securities at the close of business, employing the most recent available pricing information. Collateral levels are then adjusted based on this mark-to-market evaluation.

The cash collateral invested by Janus Capital is disclosed in the Pro Forma Schedules of Investments (if applicable). Income earned from the investment of the cash collateral, net of rebates paid to, or fees paid by, borrowers and less the fees paid to the lending agent are included as “Affiliated securities lending income, net” on the Pro Forma Statements of Operations (if applicable).
3. Investment Advisory Agreements and Other Transactions with Affiliates
Each Fund pays Janus Capital Management LLC (“Janus Capital”) an investment advisory fee which is calculated daily and paid monthly. The following table reflects each Fund’s contractual investment advisory fee rate or base fee rate, as applicable (expressed as an annual rate).
Fund | Average Daily Net Assets of the Fund | Contractual Investment Advisory Fee (%) | ||||
INTECH U.S. Growth Fund | All Asset Levels | 0.50 | ||||
INTECH U.S. Value Fund | All Asset Levels | 0.50 | ||||
Pro Forma Combined Fund | All Asset Levels | 0.50 |
Janus Capital has contractually agreed to waive the advisory fee payable by each Fund listed below or reimburse expenses in an amount equal to the amount, if any, that the Fund’s normal operating expenses in any fiscal year, including the investment advisory fee, but excluding the distribution and shareholder servicing fees (applicable to Class A Shares, Class C Shares, and Class S Shares), administrative services fees payable pursuant to the Transfer Agency Agreement, brokerage commissions, interest, dividends, taxes, acquired fund fees and expenses, and extraordinary expenses, exceed the annual rate shown below. Janus Capital has agreed to continue each waiver until the dates noted below. If applicable, amounts reimbursed to the Funds by Janus Capital are disclosed as “Excess Expense Reimbursement” on the Pro Forma Statements of Operations.
Fund | Expense Limit (%) (until November 1, 2015) | Expense Limit (%) (until November 1, 2014) | Expense Limit (%) (until November 1, 2013) | |||||||||

5. New Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2013, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2013-08, Financial Services – Investment Companies (Topic 946): Amendments to the Scope, Measurement and Disclosure Requirements (“ASU 2013-08”). This update sets forth a new approach for determining whether a public or private company is an investment company and sets certain measurement and disclosure requirements for an investment company. FASB has determined that a fund registered under the 1940 Act automatically meets ASU 2013-08’s criteria for an investment company. ASU 2013-08 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods in fiscal years that begin after December 15, 2013. Management does not expect this guidance to have an impact on the Funds’ pro forma financial statements.

Supplement dated October 28, 2014
to Currently Effective Prospectuses
Summary
The purpose of this Supplement is to provide you with important information regarding changes to your Fund’s investment strategies and corresponding changes to the name of your Fund. This summary is intended to provide you with background on the specific changes that are detailed in the next section. The changes detailed herein do not require any action on your part.
On September 17, 2014, the Board of Trustees (the “Trustees”) of the Funds approved changes to the investment strategies and names of each Fund to reflect a new managed volatility investment strategy. Additionally, the Trustees approved changes to the benchmark index and corresponding investment strategies for each of INTECH U.S. Growth Fund and INTECH U.S. Value Fund to reflect a transition to the Russell 1000® Index. These changes, each of which is discussed in detail in this Supplement, are effective on or about December 17, 2014. Your Fund’s investment objective, as shown below, and investment personnel remain the same under the new managed volatility investment strategy, and these changes will not impact the management fee rate paid by your Fund.
Fund | Investment Objective | |
INTECH Global Dividend Fund | Seeks long-term growth of capital and income | |
INTECH International Fund | Seeks long-term growth of capital | |
INTECH U.S. Growth Fund | Seeks long-term growth of capital | |
INTECH U.S. Value Fund | Seeks long-term growth of capital |
New Managed Volatility Strategy for each Fund
Each Fund is implementing a managed volatility strategy that is an extension of the Fund’s current investment strategy. While both the current strategy and new managed volatility strategy seek to provide excess returns and participate in normal rising markets, the new strategy also seeks to reduce or “manage” portfolio volatility to a level less than each Fund’s named benchmark index. Specifically, the managed volatility strategy seeks, over time, returns above a Fund’s named benchmark index, with absolute volatility lower than the benchmark index, as described below in each Fund’s Principal Investment Strategies. In this context, absolute volatility refers to the variation in the returns of the Fund and the named benchmark index as measured by standard deviation. Over shorter time periods, however, a Fund’s performance under a managed volatility strategy may be less correlated to the performance of the Fund’s named benchmark index than under the current investment strategy. In this regard, a Fund is expected to offer less “beta” or market-like investment exposure, which, in sharply rising markets, can result in the Fund underperforming its named benchmark index and not obtaining the full benefit of the market increase. Conversely, the managed volatility strategy seeks to lessen losses in down markets to a greater extent than under the Fund’s existing investment strategy, so that the Fund does not experience the full impact of a market decrease.
Beginning on or about December 17, 2014, your Fund will begin to transition to the managed volatility strategy which will result in the rebalancing of weightings of existing securities held by your Fund as well as the purchase and sale of securities. This transition is expected to take up to six weeks in an effort to minimize the impact of transaction costs. During this transition period, your Fund may not perform as it otherwise would under either the current investment strategy or the new managed volatility strategy.
New Name for each Fund
To reflect the new managed volatility strategies of the Funds, and the changes to the benchmark indices and corresponding investment strategies for INTECH U.S. Growth Fund and INTECH U.S. Value Fund, each Fund’s name will change as follows:
Current Name | New Name | |
INTECH Global Dividend Fund | INTECH Global Income Managed Volatility Fund | |
INTECH International Fund | INTECH International Managed Volatility Fund | |
INTECH U.S. Growth Fund | INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund II | |
INTECH U.S. Value Fund | INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund |
For INTECH Global Dividend Fund, the name change to include “income” is intended to reflect INTECH Global Dividend Fund’s stated investment objective of seeking long-term growth of capital and income, but does not result in a change to the stated principal investment strategy with respect to investing at least 80% of its net assets in dividend-paying securities.
New Fund Benchmark Index and Corresponding Investment Strategy Change for each of INTECH U.S. Growth Fund and INTECH U.S. Value Fund
In connection with the proposed transition to a managed volatility strategy for each Fund, the benchmark indices for INTECH U.S. Growth Fund and INTECH U.S. Value Fund will change to the Russell 1000® Index. INTECH U.S. Growth Fund and INTECH U.S. Value Fund each pursue their respective investment objective by investing in the universe of securities in the named benchmark index, and as such, these Funds’ principal investment strategies will be revised to reflect investments in securities comprising the Russell 1000® Index. The transition to the Russell 1000® Index is expected to provide shareholders with broader exposure to large cap U.S. equities than the current value- and growth-focused indices, including exposure to both growth and value stock constituents, and the potential benefits from the resulting application of INTECH’s managed volatility investment process across the entire Russell 1000® Index investment universe.
The following compares the current and the new benchmark indices:
Fund | Current Benchmark Index | New Benchmark Index | ||
INTECH U.S. Growth Fund | Russell 1000® Growth Index | Russell 1000® Index | ||
INTECH U.S. Value Fund | Russell 1000® Value Index | Russell 1000® Index |
The Russell 1000® Index measures the performance of the large-cap segment of the U.S. equity universe. It is a subset of the Russell 3000® Index and includes approximately 1,000 of the largest securities based on a combination of their market cap and current index membership. The Russell 1000® Growth Index measures the performance of those Russell 1000® Index companies with higher price-to-book ratios and higher forecasted growth values. The Russell 1000® Value Index measures the performance of those Russell 1000® Index companies with lower price-to-book ratios and lower forecasted growth values.
The following compares the current and new investment strategies related to the benchmark index changes only:
Fund | Current Investment Strategy | New Investment Strategy | ||
INTECH U.S. Growth Fund | The Fund invests, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets in U.S. common stocks from the universe of the Russell 1000® Growth Index, utilizing INTECH’s mathematical investment process. | The Fund invests, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets in U.S. common stocks from the universe of the Russell 1000® Index, utilizing INTECH’s mathematical investment process, applying a managed volatility approach. | ||
INTECH U.S. Value Fund | The Fund invests, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets in U.S. common stocks from the universe of the Russell 1000® Value Index, utilizing INTECH’s mathematical investment process. | The Fund invests, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets in U.S. common stocks from the universe of the Russell 1000® Index, utilizing INTECH’s mathematical investment process, applying a managed volatility approach. |

Prospectus Changes
Effective December 17, 2014, the information below replaces in its entirety the corresponding information found in the Prospectus.
1. The following changes apply to the Fund Summary section of the Prospectus for each Fund as noted.
Changes Applicable to INTECH Global Dividend Fund
The following replaces in their entirety the first and second paragraphs found under “Principal Investment Strategies”:
Principal Investment Strategies
The Fund invests, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets in dividend-paying securities. The Fund invests primarily in common stocks from the universe of the MSCI World High Dividend Yield Index, utilizing INTECH’s mathematical investment process, applying a managed volatility approach. The MSCI World High Dividend Yield Index is designed to reflect the performance of the high dividend yield securities contained within the broader MSCI World Indexsm. The Fund may also invest in foreign equity and debt securities. The Fund seeks to produce returns in excess of the MSCI World High Dividend Yield Index, but with lower absolute volatility than the benchmark index. The Fund seeks to generate such excess returns with absolute volatility that can range from approximately 0% to 45% lower than the MSCI World High Dividend Yield Index. In this context, absolute volatility refers to the variation in the returns of the Fund and the benchmark index as measured by standard deviation. This range is expected to be closer to 0% in less volatile markets and will increase as market conditions become more volatile.
The Fund pursues its investment objective by applying a mathematical investment process to construct an investment portfolio from the universe of stocks within the named benchmark index. The goal of this process is to combine stocks that individually have higher relative volatility, lower absolute volatility, and lower correlations with each other in an effort to reduce the Fund’s absolute volatility, while still generating returns that exceed the named benchmark index over a full market cycle (a time period representing a significant market decline and recovery). Although the Fund may underperform its named benchmark index in sharply rising markets, this strategy seeks to participate in normal rising markets and lessen losses in down markets. In applying this strategy, INTECH establishes target proportions of its holdings from stocks within the named benchmark index using an optimization process designed to determine the most effective weightings of each stock in the Fund. Once INTECH determines such proportions and the Fund’s investments are selected, the Fund is periodically rebalanced to the set target proportions and re-optimized. The rebalancing techniques used by INTECH may result in a higher portfolio turnover rate compared to a “buy and hold” fund strategy.
The following replaces in its entirety the corresponding paragraph found under “Principal Investment Risks”:
Investment Process Risk. The focus on managed volatility may keep the Fund from achieving excess returns over the named benchmark index. In this regard, INTECH’s managed volatility strategy may underperform the Fund’s named benchmark index during certain periods of up markets, and in particular, most likely will underperform the benchmark index in sharply rising markets, and may not achieve the desired level of protection in down markets. As INTECH’s mathematical investment process has evolved, it has experienced periods of both underperformance and outperformance relative to an identified benchmark index. Even when the proprietary mathematical investment process is working appropriately, INTECH expects that there will be periods of underperformance relative to the benchmark index. On an occasional basis, INTECH makes changes to its mathematical investment process that do not require shareholder notice. These changes may result in changes to the portfolio, might not provide the intended results, and may adversely impact the Fund’s performance.
Changes Applicable to INTECH International Fund
The following replaces in their entirety the first and second paragraphs found under “Principal Investment Strategies”:
Principal Investment Strategies
The Fund invests primarily in common stocks from the universe of the MSCI EAFE® (Europe, Australasia, Far East) Index, utilizing INTECH’s mathematical investment process, applying a managed volatility approach.

The Fund may also invest in foreign equity and debt securities. The Fund seeks to produce returns in excess of the MSCI EAFE® Index, but with lower absolute volatility than the benchmark index.

Changes Applicable to INTECH U.S. Value Fund

The Fund invests, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets in U.S. common stocks from the universe of the Russell 1000® Index, utilizing INTECH’s mathematical investment process, applying a managed volatility approach.

Investment Process
INTECH applies a mathematical investment process to construct an investment portfolio for each INTECH Fund. INTECH developed the formulas underlying this mathematical investment process. This process seeks, over time, to generate a return in excess of each Fund’s named benchmark index over the long term, while controlling the variability of each Fund’s returns. The mathematical investment process involves:
• | selecting stocks primarily from stocks within a Fund’s named benchmark index; |
• | periodically determining a target weighting of these stocks and rebalancing to the target weighting; and |
• | monitoring the total risk and volatility of a Fund’s holdings. |
INTECH seeks, over time, to outperform each Fund’s named benchmark index through its mathematical investment process. By applying a managed volatility approach, INTECH’s process also seeks to identify stocks for each Fund in a manner that reduces the overall portfolio volatility below that of the named benchmark index. INTECH has designed certain controls to minimize the absolute risk of a Fund. However, the proprietary mathematical investment process used by INTECH may not achieve the desired results. Each Fund may invest in exchange-traded funds or use futures, options, and other derivatives to gain exposure to the stock market pending investment of cash balances or to meet liquidity needs.
The following replaces in its entirety the corresponding information found in the “Additional Investment Strategies and General Portfolio Policies” section under “Risks of the Funds”:
Investment Process Risk. The focus on managed volatility may keep a Fund from achieving excess returns over the named benchmark index. In this regard, INTECH’s managed volatility strategy may underperform the Fund’s named benchmark index during certain periods of up markets, and in particular, most likely will underperform the benchmark index in sharply rising markets, and may not achieve the desired level of protection in down markets. Additionally, the rebalancing techniques used by INTECH may result in a higher portfolio turnover rate and related expenses compared to a “buy and hold” fund strategy. There is a risk that INTECH’s method of assessing stocks will not result in the expected volatility or correlation characteristics. In either case, a Fund may not outperform the named benchmark index, and likely will underperform its named benchmark index. As a result of INTECH’s investment process, a Fund may tend to invest in the smaller capitalization members of the named benchmark index, or other stocks, that typically exhibit greater volatility, primarily because of the potential diversification gains due to the lower correlations of their performance to that of the larger capitalization members of the named benchmark index. Consequently, in conditions where market capital is temporarily concentrated in the larger stocks contained in the named benchmark index, and fewer stocks are driving benchmark index returns, the performance of a Fund may be negatively affected relative to the named benchmark index. On an occasional basis, INTECH makes changes to its mathematical investment process that do not require shareholder notice. These changes may result in changes to the portfolio, might not provide the intended
8 |
results, and may adversely impact a Fund’s performance. In addition, others may attempt to utilize public information related to INTECH’s investment strategy in a way that may affect performance.
INTECH has designed certain controls to minimize the absolute risk of a Fund. For example, to help ensure that risk and trade costs are minimized, among other factors, INTECH employs a screening process to identify stocks that trade at a higher cost as well as constraints on stock weights in a Fund’s optimization. The Funds normally remain as fully invested as possible and do not seek to lessen the effects of a declining market through hedging or temporary defensive positions. However, they may invest in exchange-traded funds or use futures, options, and other derivatives to gain exposure to the stock market pending investment of cash balances or to meet liquidity needs. There is no guarantee that these types of investments will work and their use could cause lower returns or even losses to the Funds.
Effective on or about December 17, 2014, all references to INTECH Global Dividend Fund are replaced with INTECH Global Income Managed Volatility Fund, all references to INTECH International Fund are replaced with INTECH International Managed Volatility Fund, all references to INTECH U.S. Growth Fund are replaced with INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund II, and all references to INTECH U.S. Value Fund are replaced with INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund.

FEES AND EXPENSES OF THE FUND
This table describes the fees and expenses that you may pay if you buy and hold Shares of the Fund. Each share class has different expenses, but represents an investment in the same Fund. For Class A Shares, you may qualify for sales charge discounts if you and your family invest, or agree to invest in the future, at least $50,000 in the Fund or in other Janus mutual funds. More information about these and other discounts, as well as eligibility requirements for each share class, is available from your financial professional and in the “Purchases” section on page 47 of the Fund’s Prospectus and in the “Purchases” section of the Fund’s Statement of Additional Information.

(2) | Janus Capital has contractually agreed to waive its investment advisory fee and/or reimburse Fund expenses to the extent that the Fund’s total annual fund operating expenses (excluding the distribution and shareholder servicing fees – applicable to Class A Shares, Class C Shares, and Class S Shares; administrative services fees payable pursuant to the Transfer Agency Agreement; brokerage commissions; interest; dividends; taxes; acquired fund fees and expenses; and extraordinary expenses) exceed 0.50% until at least November 1, 2015. The contractual waiver may be terminated or modified prior to this date only at the discretion of the Board of Trustees. For a period beginning with the Fund’s commencement of operations (December 15, 2011) and expiring on the third anniversary of the commencement of operations, Janus Capital may recover from the Fund fees and expenses previously waived or reimbursed, which could then be considered a deferral, if the Fund’s expense ratio, including recovered expenses, falls below the expense limit. |
EXAMPLE:
The following Example is based on expenses without waivers. The Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The Example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods indicated and reinvest all dividends and distributions. The Example also assumes that your

Portfolio Turnover: The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or “turns over” its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover rate may indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual fund operating expenses or in the Example, affect the Fund’s performance. During the most recent fiscal year, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 51% of the average value of its portfolio.
PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES
The Fund invests, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets in dividend-paying securities. The Fund invests primarily in common stocks from the universe of the MSCI World High Dividend Yield Index, utilizing INTECH’s mathematical investment process. The MSCI World High Dividend Yield Index is designed to reflect the performance of the high dividend yield securities contained within the broader MSCI World Indexsm. The Fund may also invest in foreign equity and debt securities.
The Fund pursues its investment objective by applying a mathematical investment process to construct an investment portfolio from the universe of common stocks within its named benchmark index. The goal of this process is to build a portfolio of stocks in a more efficient combination than the named benchmark index. The process seeks to capitalize on the natural volatility of the market by searching for stocks within the index that have high relative volatility (providing the potential for excess returns) but that essentially move in opposite directions or have low correlation to each other (providing the potential for lower relative risk). By constructing the portfolio in this manner and periodically rebalancing the portfolio to maintain potentially more efficient weightings, INTECH’s mathematical investment process seeks to create a portfolio that, over time, produces returns in excess of its named benchmark index with risks similar to that of the benchmark index. The rebalancing techniques used by INTECH may result in a higher portfolio turnover rate compared to a “buy and hold” fund strategy.
The Fund may lend portfolio securities on a short-term or long-term basis, in an amount equal to up to one-third of its total assets as determined at the time of the loan origination.
PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT RISKS
The biggest risk is that the Fund’s returns will vary, and you could lose money. The Fund is designed for long-term investors seeking an equity portfolio, including common stocks. Common stocks tend to be more volatile than many other investment choices.
Foreign Exposure Risk. The Fund normally has significant exposure to foreign markets as a result of its investments in foreign securities, which can be more volatile than the U.S. markets. As a result, its returns and net asset value may be affected to a large degree by fluctuations in currency exchange rates or political or economic conditions in a particular
3 | INTECH Global Dividend Fund
country. In some foreign markets, there may not be protection against failure by other parties to complete transactions. It may not be possible for the Fund to repatriate capital, dividends, interest, and other income from a particular country or governmental entity. In addition, a market swing in one or more countries or regions where the Fund has invested a significant amount of its assets may have a greater effect on the Fund’s performance than it would in a more geographically diversified portfolio. To the extent the Fund invests in foreign debt securities, such investments are sensitive to changes in interest rates. Additionally, investments in securities of foreign governments involve the risk that a foreign government may not be willing or able to pay interest or repay principal when due.
Dividend Risk. Companies that issue dividend-yielding securities are not required to continue to pay dividends on such securities. Therefore, there is the possibility that such companies could reduce or eliminate the payment of dividends in the future.
Market Risk. The value of the Fund’s portfolio may decrease if the value of an individual company or security, or multiple companies or securities, in the portfolio decreases. Further, regardless of how well individual companies or securities perform, the value of the Fund’s portfolio could also decrease if there are deteriorating economic or market conditions. It is important to understand that the value of your investment may fall, sometimes sharply, in response to changes in the market, and you could lose money.
Investment Process Risk. The proprietary mathematical investment process used by INTECH may not achieve the desired results. There is a risk that INTECH’s method of identifying stocks with higher volatility than the named benchmark index or its method of identifying stocks that tend to move in the same or opposite direction relative to each other (correlation) will not result in selecting stocks with continuing volatility or the expected correlation. In INTECH’s history, which spans more than 25 years, INTECH’s mathematical investment process has experienced periods of both underperformance and outperformance relative to an identified benchmark index. Even when the proprietary mathematical investment process is working appropriately, INTECH expects that there will be periods of underperformance relative to the benchmark index. On an occasional basis, INTECH makes changes to its mathematical investment process that do not require shareholder notice. These changes may result in changes to the portfolio, might not provide the intended results, and may adversely impact the Fund’s performance.
Portfolio Turnover Risk. Increased portfolio turnover may result in higher costs, which may have a negative effect on the Fund’s performance. In addition, higher portfolio turnover may result in the acceleration of capital gains and the recognition of greater levels of short-term capital gains, which are taxed at ordinary federal income tax rates when distributed to shareholders.
Securities Lending Risk. The Fund may seek to earn additional income through lending its securities to certain qualified broker-dealers and institutions. There is the risk that when portfolio securities are lent, the securities may not be returned on a timely basis, and the Fund may experience delays and costs in recovering the security or gaining access to the collateral provided to the Fund to collateralize the loan. If the Fund is unable to recover a security on loan, the Fund may use the collateral to purchase replacement securities in the market. There is a risk that the value of the collateral could decrease below the cost of the replacement security by the time the replacement investment is made, resulting in a loss to the Fund.
An investment in the Fund is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency.
PERFORMANCE INFORMATION
The following information provides some indication of the risks of investing in the Fund by showing how the Fund’s performance has varied over time. Class A Shares, Class C Shares, Class S Shares, Class I Shares, and Class T Shares of the Fund commenced operations with the Fund’s inception.
• | The performance shown for Class A Shares, Class C Shares, Class S Shares, Class I Shares, and Class T Shares is calculated using the fees and expenses of each respective share class, net of any applicable fee and expense limitations or waivers. |
• | The performance shown for Class N Shares reflects the performance of the Fund’s Class I Shares, calculated using the fees and expenses of Class N Shares, without the effect of any fee and expense limitations or waivers. If Class N Shares of the Fund had been available during the periods shown, the performance may have been different. |

The bar chart depicts the change in performance from year to year during the periods indicated. The bar chart figures do not include any applicable sales charges that an investor may pay when they buy or sell Class A Shares or Class C Shares of the Fund. If sales charges were included, the returns would be lower. The table compares the Fund’s average annual returns for the periods indicated to broad-based securities market indices. The indices are not actively managed and are not available for direct investment. All figures assume reinvestment of dividends and distributions. For certain periods, the Fund’s performance reflects the effect of expense waivers. Without the effect of these expense waivers, the performance shown would have been lower.

EXAMPLE:
The Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The Example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods indicated and reinvest all dividends and distributions. The Example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund’s operating expenses remain the same. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

Portfolio Turnover: The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or “turns over” its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover rate may indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual fund operating expenses or in the Example, affect the Fund’s performance. During the most recent fiscal year, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 160% of the average value of its portfolio.
PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES
The Fund invests primarily in common stocks from the universe of the MSCI EAFE® (Europe, Australasia, Far East) Index, utilizing INTECH’s mathematical investment process. The MSCI EAFE® Index is an MSCI index that is designed to measure the performance of the developed markets of Europe, Australasia, and the Far East. The Fund may also invest in foreign equity and debt securities.
The Fund pursues its investment objective by applying a mathematical investment process to construct an investment portfolio from the universe of common stocks within its named benchmark index. The goal of this process is to build a portfolio of stocks in a more efficient combination than the named benchmark index. The process seeks to capitalize on the natural volatility of the market by searching for stocks within the index that have high relative volatility (providing the potential for excess returns) but that essentially move in opposite directions or have low correlation to each other (providing the potential for lower relative risk). By constructing the portfolio in this manner and periodically rebalancing the portfolio to maintain potentially more efficient weightings, INTECH’s mathematical investment process seeks to create a portfolio that, over time, produces returns in excess of its named benchmark index with risks similar to that of the benchmark index. The rebalancing techniques used by INTECH may result in a higher portfolio turnover rate compared to a “buy and hold” fund strategy.
The Fund may lend portfolio securities on a short-term or long-term basis, in an amount equal to up to one-third of its total assets as determined at the time of the loan origination.
PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT RISKS
The biggest risk is that the Fund’s returns will vary, and you could lose money. The Fund is designed for long-term investors seeking an equity portfolio, including common stocks. Common stocks tend to be more volatile than many other investment choices.
Foreign Exposure Risk. The Fund normally has significant exposure to foreign markets as a result of its investments in foreign securities, which can be more volatile than the U.S. markets. As a result, its returns and net asset value may be affected to a large degree by fluctuations in currency exchange rates or political or economic conditions in a particular country. In some foreign markets, there may not be protection against failure by other parties to complete transactions. It may not be possible for the Fund to repatriate capital, dividends, interest, and other income from a particular country or governmental entity. In addition, a market swing in one or more countries or regions where the Fund has invested a significant amount of its assets may have a greater effect on the Fund’s performance than it would in a more geographically diversified portfolio.
Market Risk. The value of the Fund’s portfolio may decrease if the value of an individual company or security, or multiple companies or securities, in the portfolio decreases. Further, regardless of how well individual companies or securities perform, the value of the Fund’s portfolio could also decrease if there are deteriorating economic or market conditions. It is important to understand that the value of your investment may fall, sometimes sharply, in response to changes in the market, and you could lose money.
9 | INTECH International Fund
Investment Process Risk. The proprietary mathematical investment process used by INTECH may not achieve the desired results. There is a risk that INTECH’s method of identifying stocks with higher volatility than the named benchmark index or its method of identifying stocks that tend to move in the same or opposite direction relative to each other (correlation) will not result in selecting stocks with continuing volatility or the expected correlation. In INTECH’s history, which spans more than 25 years, INTECH’s mathematical investment process has experienced periods of both underperformance and outperformance relative to an identified benchmark index. Even when the proprietary mathematical investment process is working appropriately, INTECH expects that there will be periods of underperformance relative to the benchmark index. On an occasional basis, INTECH makes changes to its mathematical investment process that do not require shareholder notice. These changes may result in changes to the portfolio, might not provide the intended results, and may adversely impact the Fund’s performance.
Portfolio Turnover Risk. Increased portfolio turnover may result in higher costs, which may have a negative effect on the Fund’s performance. In addition, higher portfolio turnover may result in the acceleration of capital gains and the recognition of greater levels of short-term capital gains, which are taxed at ordinary federal income tax rates when distributed to shareholders.
Securities Lending Risk. The Fund may seek to earn additional income through lending its securities to certain qualified broker-dealers and institutions. There is the risk that when portfolio securities are lent, the securities may not be returned on a timely basis, and the Fund may experience delays and costs in recovering the security or gaining access to the collateral provided to the Fund to collateralize the loan. If the Fund is unable to recover a security on loan, the Fund may use the collateral to purchase replacement securities in the market. There is a risk that the value of the collateral could decrease below the cost of the replacement security by the time the replacement investment is made, resulting in a loss to the Fund.
An investment in the Fund is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency.
PERFORMANCE INFORMATION
The following information provides some indication of the risks of investing in the Fund by showing how the Fund’s performance has varied over time. Class I Shares, Class A Shares, Class C Shares, and Class S Shares of the Fund commenced operations on July 6, 2009, after the reorganization of each corresponding class of shares of Janus Adviser INTECH Risk-Managed International Fund (“JAD predecessor fund”) into each respective share class of the Fund. Class T Shares of the Fund commenced operations on July 6, 2009.
• | The performance shown for Class I Shares, Class A Shares, Class C Shares, and Class S Shares for periods prior to July 6, 2009, reflects the historical performance of the JAD predecessor fund’s Class I Shares, Class A Shares, Class C Shares, and Class S Shares prior to the reorganization, calculated using the fees and expenses of each respective share class of the JAD predecessor fund, net of any applicable fee and expense limitations or waivers. |
• | The performance shown for Class T Shares for periods prior to July 6, 2009, reflects the historical performance of the JAD predecessor fund’s Class I Shares prior to the reorganization, calculated using the fees and expenses of Class T Shares, without the effect of any fee and expense limitations or waivers. If Class T Shares of the Fund had been available during periods prior to July 6, 2009, the performance shown may have been different. |
• | The performance shown for Class N Shares reflects the historical performance of the Fund’s Class I Shares, calculated using the fees and expenses of Class I Shares, net of any applicable fee and expense limitations or waivers. If Class N Shares of the Fund had been available during the periods shown, the performance may have been different. |
The performance shown for periods following the Fund’s commencement of Class I Shares, Class A Shares, Class C Shares, Class S Shares, and Class T Shares reflects the fees and expenses of each respective share class, net of any applicable fee and expense limitations or waivers.
The bar chart depicts the change in performance from year to year during the periods indicated. The bar chart figures do not include any applicable sales charges that an investor may pay when they buy or sell Class A Shares or Class C Shares of the Fund. If sales charges were included, the returns would be lower. The table compares the Fund’s average annual returns for the periods indicated to a broad-based securities market index. The index is not actively managed and is not available for direct investment. All figures assume reinvestment of dividends and distributions. For certain periods, the Fund’s performance

Portfolio Turnover: The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or “turns over” its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover rate may indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual fund operating expenses or in the Example, affect the Fund’s performance. During the most recent fiscal year, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 110% of the average value of its portfolio.
PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES
The Fund invests, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets in U.S. common stocks from the universe of the Russell 1000® Growth Index, utilizing INTECH’s mathematical investment process. The Russell 1000® Growth Index is an unmanaged index that measures the performance of those Russell 1000 companies with higher price-to-book ratios and higher forecasted growth values.
The Fund pursues its investment objective by applying a mathematical investment process to construct an investment portfolio from the universe of common stocks within its named benchmark index. The goal of this process is to build a portfolio of stocks in a more efficient combination than the named benchmark index. The process seeks to capitalize on the natural volatility of the market by searching for stocks within the index that have high relative volatility (providing the potential for excess returns) but that essentially move in opposite directions or have low correlation to each other (providing the potential for lower relative risk).

The Fund may lend portfolio securities on a short-term or long-term basis, in an amount equal to up to one-third of its total assets as determined at the time of the loan origination.
PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT RISKS
The biggest risk is that the Fund’s returns will vary, and you could lose money. The Fund is designed for long-term investors seeking an equity portfolio, including common stocks. Common stocks tend to be more volatile than many other investment choices.
Growth Securities Risk. Securities of companies perceived to be “growth” companies may be more volatile than other stocks and may involve special risks. If a company’s growth potential is not realized, the securities purchased may not perform as expected, reducing the Fund’s returns. In addition, because different types of stocks tend to shift in and out of favor depending on market and economic conditions, “growth” stocks may perform differently from the market as a whole and other types of securities.
Market Risk. The value of the Fund’s portfolio may decrease if the value of an individual company or security, or multiple companies or securities, in the portfolio decreases. Further, regardless of how well individual companies or securities perform, the value of the Fund’s portfolio could also decrease if there are deteriorating economic or market conditions. It is important to understand that the value of your investment may fall, sometimes sharply, in response to changes in the market, and you could lose money.
Investment Process Risk. The proprietary mathematical investment process used by INTECH may not achieve the desired results. There is a risk that INTECH’s method of identifying stocks with higher volatility than the named benchmark index or its method of identifying stocks that tend to move in the same or opposite direction relative to each other (correlation) will
15 | INTECH U.S. Growth Fund
not result in selecting stocks with continuing volatility or the expected correlation. In INTECH’s history, which spans more than 25 years, INTECH’s mathematical investment process has experienced periods of both underperformance and outperformance relative to an identified benchmark index. Even when the proprietary mathematical investment process is working appropriately, INTECH expects that there will be periods of underperformance relative to the benchmark index. On an occasional basis, INTECH makes changes to its mathematical investment process that do not require shareholder notice. These changes may result in changes to the portfolio, might not provide the intended results, and may adversely impact the Fund’s performance.

If Class A Shares, Class I Shares, and Class T Shares of the Fund had been available during periods prior to July 6, 2009, the performance shown for each respective share class may have been different. The performance shown for periods following the Fund’s commencement of Class S Shares, Class A Shares, Class C Shares, Class I Shares, and Class T Shares reflects the fees and expenses of each respective share class, net of any applicable fee and expense limitations or waivers.
The bar chart depicts the change in performance from year to year during the periods indicated. The bar chart figures do not include any applicable sales charges that an investor may pay when they buy or sell Class A Shares or Class C Shares of the Fund. If sales charges were included, the returns would be lower. The table compares the Fund’s average annual returns for the periods indicated to a broad-based securities market index. The index is not actively managed and is not available for direct investment. All figures assume reinvestment of dividends and distributions. For certain periods, the Fund’s performance reflects the effect of expense waivers. Without the effect of these expense waivers, the performance shown would have been lower.

EXAMPLE:
The Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The Example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods indicated and reinvest all dividends and distributions. The Example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund’s operating expenses remain the same. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

Portfolio Turnover: The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or “turns over” its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover rate may indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual fund operating expenses or in the Example, affect the Fund’s performance. During the most recent fiscal year, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 150% of the average value of its portfolio.
PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES
The Fund invests, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets in U.S. common stocks from the universe of the Russell 1000® Value Index, utilizing INTECH’s mathematical investment process. The Russell 1000® Value Index is an unmanaged index that measures the performance of those Russell 1000 companies with lower price-to-book ratios and lower forecasted growth values.
The Fund pursues its investment objective by applying a mathematical investment process to construct an investment portfolio from the universe of common stocks within its named benchmark index. The goal of this process is to build a portfolio of stocks in a more efficient combination than the named benchmark index. The process seeks to capitalize on the natural volatility of the market by searching for stocks within the index that have high relative volatility (providing the potential for excess returns) but that essentially move in opposite directions or have low correlation to each other (providing the potential for lower relative risk). By constructing the portfolio in this manner and periodically rebalancing the portfolio to maintain potentially more efficient weightings, INTECH’s mathematical investment process seeks to create a portfolio that, over time, produces returns in excess of its named benchmark index with risks similar to that of the benchmark index. The rebalancing techniques used by INTECH may result in a higher portfolio turnover rate compared to a “buy and hold” fund strategy.
The Fund may lend portfolio securities on a short-term or long-term basis, in an amount equal to up to one-third of its total assets as determined at the time of the loan origination.
PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT RISKS
The biggest risk is that the Fund’s returns will vary, and you could lose money. The Fund is designed for long-term investors seeking an equity portfolio, including common stocks. Common stocks tend to be more volatile than many other investment choices.
Value Investing Risk. Because different types of stocks tend to shift in and out of favor depending on market and economic conditions, “value” stocks may perform differently than other types of stocks and from the market as a whole, and can continue to be undervalued by the market for long periods of time.
Market Risk. The value of the Fund’s portfolio may decrease if the value of an individual company or security, or multiple companies or securities, in the portfolio decreases. Further, regardless of how well individual companies or securities perform, the value of the Fund’s portfolio could also decrease if there are deteriorating economic or market conditions. It is important to understand that the value of your investment may fall, sometimes sharply, in response to changes in the market, and you could lose money.
Investment Process Risk. The proprietary mathematical investment process used by INTECH may not achieve the desired results. There is a risk that INTECH’s method of identifying stocks with higher volatility than the named benchmark index or its method of identifying stocks that tend to move in the same or opposite direction relative to each other (correlation) will not result in selecting stocks with continuing volatility or the expected correlation. In INTECH’s history, which spans more than 25 years, INTECH’s mathematical investment process has experienced periods of both underperformance and
21 | INTECH U.S. Value Fund
outperformance relative to an identified benchmark index. Even when the proprietary mathematical investment process is working appropriately, INTECH expects that there will be periods of underperformance relative to the benchmark index. On an occasional basis, INTECH makes changes to its mathematical investment process that do not require shareholder notice. These changes may result in changes to the portfolio, might not provide the intended results, and may adversely impact the Fund’s performance.
Real Estate Securities Risk. The Fund’s performance may be affected by the risks associated with investments in real estate-related companies. The value of real estate-related companies’ securities is sensitive to changes in real estate values and rental income, property taxes, interest rates, tax and regulatory requirements, supply and demand, and the management skill and creditworthiness of the company. Investments in real estate investment trusts (“REITs”) involve the same risks as other real estate investments. In addition, a REIT could fail to qualify for tax-free pass-through of its income under the Internal Revenue Code or fail to maintain its exemption from registration under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, which could produce adverse economic consequences for the REIT and its investors, including the Fund.
Portfolio Turnover Risk. Increased portfolio turnover may result in higher costs, which may have a negative effect on the Fund’s performance. In addition, higher portfolio turnover may result in the acceleration of capital gains and the recognition of greater levels of short-term capital gains, which are taxed at ordinary federal income tax rates when distributed to shareholders.
Securities Lending Risk. The Fund may seek to earn additional income through lending its securities to certain qualified broker-dealers and institutions. There is the risk that when portfolio securities are lent, the securities may not be returned on a timely basis, and the Fund may experience delays and costs in recovering the security or gaining access to the collateral provided to the Fund to collateralize the loan. If the Fund is unable to recover a security on loan, the Fund may use the collateral to purchase replacement securities in the market. There is a risk that the value of the collateral could decrease below the cost of the replacement security by the time the replacement investment is made, resulting in a loss to the Fund.
An investment in the Fund is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency.
PERFORMANCE INFORMATION
The following information provides some indication of the risks of investing in the Fund by showing how the Fund’s performance has varied over time. Class I Shares, Class A Shares, Class C Shares, and Class S Shares of the Fund commenced operations on July 6, 2009, after the reorganization of each corresponding class of shares of Janus Adviser INTECH Risk-Managed Value Fund (“JAD predecessor fund”) into each respective share class of the Fund. Class T Shares of the Fund commenced operations on July 6, 2009. Class N Shares of the Fund commenced operations on October 28, 2014.
• | The performance shown for Class I Shares, Class A Shares, Class C Shares, and Class S Shares for periods prior to July 6, 2009, reflects the historical performance of the JAD predecessor fund’s Class I Shares, Class A Shares, Class C Shares, and Class S Shares prior to the reorganization, calculated using the fees and expenses of each respective share class of the JAD predecessor fund, net of any applicable fee and expense limitations or waivers. |
• | The performance shown for Class T Shares for periods prior to July 6, 2009, reflects the historical performance of the JAD predecessor fund’s Class I Shares prior to the reorganization, calculated using the fees and expenses of Class T Shares, without the effect of any fee and expense limitations or waivers. If Class T Shares of the Fund had been available during periods prior to July 6, 2009, the performance shown may have been different. |
• | The performance shown for Class N Shares reflects the performance of the Fund’s Class I Shares from July 6, 2009 to December 31, 2013, calculated using the fees and expenses of Class I Shares, net of any applicable fee and expense limitations or waivers. The performance shown for Class N Shares for periods prior to July 6, 2009, reflects the historical performance of the JAD predecessor fund’s Class I Shares prior to the reorganization, calculated using the fees and expenses of Class I Shares of the JAD predecessor fund, net of any applicable fee and expense limitations or waivers. If Class N Shares of the Fund had been available during periods prior to December 31, 2013, the performance shown may have been different. |
The performance shown for periods following the Fund’s commencement of Class I Shares, Class A Shares, Class C Shares, Class S Shares, and Class T Shares reflects the fees and expenses of each respective share class, net of any applicable fee and expense limitations or waivers.

The bar chart depicts the change in performance from year to year during the periods indicated. The bar chart figures do not include any applicable sales charges that an investor may pay when they buy or sell Class A Shares or Class C Shares of the Fund. If sales charges were included, the returns would be lower. The table compares the Fund’s average annual returns for the periods indicated to a broad-based securities market index. The index is not actively managed and is not available for direct investment. All figures assume reinvestment of dividends and distributions. For certain periods, the Fund’s performance reflects the effect of expense waivers. Without the effect of these expense waivers, the performance shown would have been lower.

• | “Distribution/Service (12b-1) Fees.” Because 12b-1 fees are charged as an ongoing fee, over time the fee will increase the cost of your investment and may cost you more than paying other types of sales charges. Distribution/Service (12b-1) Fees include a shareholder servicing fee of up to 0.25% for Class C Shares. |
• | A contingent deferred sales charge of up to 1.00% may be imposed on certain redemptions of Class A Shares bought without an initial sales charge and then redeemed within 12 months of purchase. The contingent deferred sales charge is not reflected in the Example in each Fund Summary. |
• | A contingent deferred sales charge of 1.00% generally applies on Class C Shares redeemed within 12 months of purchase. The contingent deferred sales charge may be waived for certain investors, as described in the Shareholder’s Guide. |
• | “Other Expenses” |
○ | for Class A Shares, Class C Shares, and Class I Shares, may include administrative fees charged by intermediaries for the provision of administrative services, including recordkeeping, subaccounting, order processing for omnibus or networked accounts, or other shareholder services provided on behalf of shareholders of the Funds. | |
○ | for Class S Shares and Class T Shares, include an administrative services fee of 0.25% of the average daily net assets of each class to compensate Janus Services LLC (“Janus Services”), the Funds’ transfer agent, for providing, or arranging for the provision by intermediaries of, administrative services, including recordkeeping, subaccounting, order processing for omnibus or networked accounts, or other shareholder services provided on behalf of retirement plan participants, pension plan participants, or other underlying investors investing through institutional channels. | |
○ | for all classes, may include reimbursement to Janus Capital of its out-of-pocket costs for services as administrator and to Janus Services of its out-of-pocket costs for serving as transfer agent and providing, or arranging by others the provision of, servicing to shareholders. |
• | “Acquired Fund” refers to any underlying fund (including, but not limited to, exchange-traded funds) in which a fund invests or has invested during the period. Acquired fund fees and expenses are indirect expenses a fund may incur as a result of investing in shares of an underlying fund. To the extent that a Fund invests in Acquired Funds, the Fund’s “Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses” may not correlate to the “ratio of gross expenses to average net assets” presented in the Financial Highlights tables because that ratio includes only the direct operating expenses incurred by the Fund, not the indirect costs of investing in Acquired Funds. If applicable, or unless otherwise indicated in a Fund’s Fees and Expenses table, such amounts are less than 0.01% and are included in the Fund’s “Other Expenses.” |
• | Janus Capital has contractually agreed to waive and/or reimburse each Fund’s “Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses” to certain limits until at least November 1, 2015. The expense limits are described in the “Management Expenses” section of this Prospectus. |
• | All expenses in a Fund’s “Fees and Expenses of the Fund” table are shown without the effect of expense offset arrangements. Pursuant to such arrangements, credits realized as a result of uninvested cash balances are used to reduce custodian and transfer agent expenses. |

ADDITIONAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES AND GENERAL PORTFOLIO POLICIES
The Funds’ Board of Trustees (“Trustees”) may change each Fund’s investment objective or non-fundamental principal investment strategies without a shareholder vote. A Fund will notify you in writing at least 60 days before making any such change it considers material. If there is a material change to a Fund’s objective or principal investment strategies, you should consider whether the Fund remains an appropriate investment for you. There is no guarantee that a Fund will achieve its investment objective.
Unless otherwise stated, the following additional investment strategies and general policies apply to each Fund and provide further information including, but not limited to, the types of securities a Fund may invest in when implementing its investment objective. For some Funds, these strategies and policies may be part of a principal strategy. For other Funds, these strategies and policies may be utilized to a lesser extent. Except for the Funds’ policies with respect to investments in illiquid securities and borrowing, the percentage limitations described in the SAI normally apply only at the time of purchase of a security. So, for example, if a Fund exceeds a limit as a result of market fluctuations or the sale of other securities, it will not be required to dispose of any securities. The “Glossary of Investment Terms” includes descriptions of investment terms used throughout the Prospectus.
Cash Position
The Funds normally remain as fully invested as possible and do not seek to lessen the effects of a declining market through hedging or temporary defensive positions. The Funds may use exchange-traded funds, as well as futures, options, and other derivatives, to gain exposure to the stock market pending investment of cash balances or to meet liquidity needs. There is no guarantee that these types of derivative investments will work and their use could cause lower returns or even losses to the Funds. To the extent a Fund invests its uninvested cash through a sweep program (meaning its uninvested cash is pooled with uninvested cash of other funds and invested in certain securities such as repurchase agreements), it is subject to the risks of the account or fund into which it is investing, including liquidity issues that may delay the Fund from accessing its cash.
Foreign Securities
To the extent that foreign securities may be included in a Fund’s named benchmark index, INTECH’s mathematical investment process may select foreign securities from within the applicable benchmark index, regardless of where an issuer or company is located. There are no limitations on the countries in which the Funds may invest.
Investment Process
INTECH applies a mathematical investment process to construct an investment portfolio for each INTECH Fund. INTECH developed the formulas underlying this mathematical investment process. The mathematical investment process is designed to take advantage of market volatility (variation in stock prices), rather than using fundamental research or market/economic trends to predict the future returns of stocks. The process seeks, over time, to generate a return in excess of each Fund’s named benchmark index over the long term, while controlling the risk relative to the benchmark index. The mathematical investment process involves:
• | selecting stocks primarily from stocks within a Fund’s named benchmark index; |
• | periodically determining a target weighting of these stocks and rebalancing to the target weighting; and |
• | monitoring the total risk and volatility of a Fund’s holdings. |
INTECH seeks, over time, to outperform each Fund’s named benchmark index through its mathematical investment process. INTECH seeks to identify stocks for each Fund in a manner that does not increase the overall portfolio volatility above that of the named benchmark index. More volatile stocks may tend to reside on the smaller cap end of the named benchmark index. INTECH employs risk controls designed to minimize the risk of significant underperformance relative to the named benchmark index. However, the proprietary mathematical investment process used by INTECH may not achieve the desired results. Each Fund may invest in exchange-traded funds or use futures, options, and other derivatives to gain exposure to the stock market pending investment of cash balances or to meet liquidity needs.
Portfolio Turnover
In general, each Fund intends to purchase securities for long-term investment consistent with INTECH’s mathematical investment process. To a limited extent, however, portfolio securities may be held for relatively shorter periods. Short-term transactions may also result from liquidity needs, securities having reached a price objective, changes in the credit standing of an issuer, or by reason of economic or other developments not foreseen at the time of the initial investment. As a result of
27 | Janus Investment Fund
INTECH’s mathematical investment process, a Fund may sell one security and simultaneously purchase the same or a comparable security. Portfolio turnover may also be affected by market conditions, changes in the size of a Fund (including due to shareholder purchases and redemptions), and the nature of each Fund’s investments. Portfolio turnover rates are not a factor in making buy and sell decisions.
The rebalancing techniques used by a Fund may result in higher portfolio turnover compared to a “buy and hold” fund strategy. INTECH periodically rebalances the stocks in each portfolio to its target weighting versus each Fund’s respective benchmark index, as determined by INTECH’s mathematical investment process.
Increased portfolio turnover may result in higher costs for brokerage commissions, dealer mark-ups, and other transaction costs, and may also result in taxable capital gains. Higher costs associated with increased portfolio turnover also may have a negative effect on a Fund’s performance. The “Financial Highlights” section of this Prospectus shows the Funds’ historical turnover rates.
Real Estate-Related Securities
To the extent that real estate-related securities may be included in a Fund’s named benchmark index, INTECH’s mathematical investment process may select equity and debt securities of real estate-related companies. Such companies may include those in the real estate industry or real estate-related industries. These securities may include common stocks, preferred stocks, and other equity securities, including, but not limited to, mortgage-backed securities, real estate-backed securities, securities of real estate investment trusts (“REITs”) and similar REIT-like entities. A REIT is a trust that invests in real estate-related projects, such as properties, mortgage loans, and construction loans. REITs are generally categorized as equity, mortgage, or hybrid REITs. A REIT may be listed on an exchange or traded over-the-counter.
Securities Lending
A Fund may seek to earn additional income through lending its securities to certain qualified broker-dealers and institutions on a short-term or long-term basis. Each Fund may lend portfolio securities on a short-term or long-term basis, in an amount equal to up to one-third of its total assets as determined at the time of the loan origination. When a Fund lends its securities, it receives collateral (including cash collateral), at least equal to the value of securities loaned. The Fund may earn income by investing this collateral in one or more affiliated or non-affiliated cash management vehicles. It is also possible that, due to a decline in the value of a cash management vehicle in which collateral is invested, the Fund may lose money. There is also the risk that when portfolio securities are lent, the securities may not be returned on a timely basis, and the Fund may experience delays and costs in recovering the security or gaining access to the collateral provided to the Fund to collateralize the loan. If the Fund is unable to recover a security on loan, the Fund may use the collateral to purchase replacement securities in the market. There is a risk that the value of the collateral could decrease below the cost of the replacement security by the time the replacement investment is made, resulting in a loss to the Fund. Janus Capital intends to manage the cash collateral in an affiliated cash management vehicle and will receive an investment advisory fee for managing such assets.
Other Types of Investments
Unless otherwise stated within its specific investment policies, each Fund may also invest in other types of domestic and foreign securities and use other investment strategies, as described in the “Glossary of Investment Terms.” These securities and strategies are not intended to be principal investment strategies of the Funds. If successful, they may benefit the Funds by earning a return on the Funds’ assets or reducing risk; however, they may not achieve the Funds’ investment objectives. These securities and strategies may include:
• | debt securities (such as bonds, notes, and debentures) |
• | exchange-traded funds |
• | indexed/structured securities (such as commercial and residential mortgage- and asset-backed securities) |
• | various derivative transactions including, but not limited to, options, futures, forwards, swap agreements (such as equity, interest rate, inflation index, credit default, and total return), participatory notes, structured notes, and other types of derivatives individually or in combination for hedging purposes or for nonhedging purposes such as seeking to earn income and enhance return, to protect unrealized gains, or to avoid realizing losses; such techniques may also be used to adjust currency exposure relative to a benchmark index, to gain exposure to the market pending investment of cash balances, or to meet liquidity needs |
• | securities purchased on a when-issued, delayed delivery, or forward commitment basis |
28 | Janus Investment Fund
The value of your investment will vary over time, sometimes significantly, and you may lose money by investing in the Funds. Because the Funds may invest substantially all of their assets in common stocks, the main risk is the risk that the value of the stocks they hold might decrease in response to the activities of an individual company or in response to general market and/or economic conditions. The following information is intended to help you better understand some of the risks of investing in the Funds. The impact of the following risks on a Fund may vary depending on the Fund’s investments. The greater the Fund’s investment in a particular security, the greater the Fund’s exposure to the risks associated with that security. Before investing in a Fund, you should consider carefully the risks that you assume when investing in the Fund.
Counterparty Risk. Fund transactions involving a counterparty are subject to the risk that the counterparty or a third party will not fulfill its obligation to a Fund (“counterparty risk”). Counterparty risk may arise because of the counterparty’s financial condition (i.e., financial difficulties, bankruptcy, or insolvency), market activities and developments, or other reasons, whether foreseen or not. A counterparty’s inability to fulfill its obligation may result in significant financial loss to a Fund. A Fund may be unable to recover its investment from the counterparty or may obtain a limited recovery, and/or recovery may be delayed. A Fund may be exposed to counterparty risk to the extent it participates in lending its securities to third parties and/or cash sweep arrangements whereby the Fund’s cash balance is invested in one or more types of cash management vehicles. In addition, a Fund may be exposed to counterparty risk through its investments in certain securities, including, but not limited to, repurchase agreements, debt securities, and derivatives (including various types of swaps, futures, and options). Each Fund intends to enter into financial transactions with counterparties that Janus Capital believes to be creditworthy at the time of the transaction. There is always the risk that Janus Capital’s analysis of a counterparty’s creditworthiness is incorrect or may change due to market conditions. To the extent that a Fund focuses its transactions with a limited number of counterparties, it will have greater exposure to the risks associated with one or more counterparties.
Derivatives Risk. Derivatives can be highly volatile and involve risks in addition to the risks of the underlying referenced securities. Gains or losses from a derivative investment can be substantially greater than the derivative’s original cost, and can therefore involve leverage. Leverage may cause a Fund to be more volatile than if it had not used leverage. Derivatives can be complex instruments and may involve analysis that differs from that required for other investment types used by a Fund. If the value of a derivative does not correlate well with the particular market or other asset class to which the derivative is intended to provide exposure, the derivative may not produce the anticipated result. Derivatives can also reduce the opportunity for gain or result in losses by offsetting positive returns in other investments. Derivatives can be less liquid than other types of investments and entail the risk that the counterparty will default on its payment obligations. If the counterparty to a derivative transaction defaults, a Fund would risk the loss of the net amount of the payments that it contractually is entitled to receive. To the extent a Fund enters into short derivative positions, a Fund may be exposed to risks similar to those associated with short sales, including the risk that a Fund’s losses are theoretically unlimited.
Eurozone Risk. A number of countries in the European Union (“EU”) have experienced severe economic and financial difficulties. As a result, financial markets in the EU have been subject to increased volatility and declines in asset values and liquidity. Responses to these financial problems by European governments, central banks, and others, including austerity measures and reforms, may not work, may result in social unrest, and may limit future growth and economic recovery or have other unintended consequences. Further defaults or restructurings by governments and others of their debt could have additional adverse effects on economies, financial markets, and asset valuations around the world. In addition, one or more countries may abandon the euro and/or withdraw from the EU. The impact of these actions, especially if they occur in a disorderly fashion, is not clear but could be significant and far-reaching. To the extent that a Fund has exposure to European markets or to transactions tied to the value of the euro, these events could negatively affect the value and liquidity of the Fund’s investments. All of these developments may continue to significantly affect the economies of all EU countries, which in turn may have a material adverse effect on a Fund’s investments in such countries, other countries that depend on EU countries for significant amounts of trade or investment, or issuers with exposure to debt issued by certain EU countries.
Foreign Exposure Risks. INTECH Global Dividend Fund and INTECH International Fund will invest in foreign securities either indirectly (e.g., depositary receipts, depositary shares, and passive foreign investment companies) or directly in foreign markets, which may include emerging markets. As previously noted, to the extent that foreign securities may be included in the other INTECH Funds’ respective named benchmark indices, INTECH’s mathematical investment process may select foreign debt and equity securities. Investments in foreign securities, including securities of foreign and emerging markets
29 | Janus Investment Fund
governments, may involve greater risks than investing in domestic securities because a Fund’s performance may depend on factors other than the performance of a particular company. These factors include:
• | Currency Risk. As long as a Fund holds a foreign security, its value will be affected by the value of the local currency relative to the U.S. dollar. When a Fund sells a foreign currency denominated security, its value may be worth less in U.S. dollars even if the security increases in value in its home country. U.S. dollar-denominated securities of foreign issuers may also be affected by currency risk, as the value of these securities may also be affected by changes in the issuer’s local currency. |
• | Political and Economic Risk. Foreign investments may be subject to heightened political and economic risks, particularly in emerging markets which may have relatively unstable governments, immature economic structures, national policies restricting investments by foreigners, social instability, and different and/or developing legal systems. In some countries, there is the risk that the government may take over the assets or operations of a company or that the government may impose withholding and other taxes or limits on the removal of a Fund’s assets from that country. In addition, the economies of emerging markets may be predominantly based on only a few industries, may be highly vulnerable to changes in local or global trade conditions, and may suffer from extreme and volatile debt burdens or inflation rates. |
• | Regulatory Risk. There may be less government supervision of foreign markets. As a result, foreign issuers may not be subject to the uniform accounting, auditing, and financial reporting standards and practices applicable to domestic issuers, and there may be less publicly available information about foreign issuers. |
• | Foreign Market Risk. Foreign securities markets, particularly those of emerging market countries, may be less liquid and more volatile than domestic markets. These securities markets may trade a small number of securities, may have a limited number of issuers and a high proportion of shares, or may be held by a relatively small number of persons or institutions. Local securities markets may be unable to respond effectively to increases in trading volume, potentially making prompt liquidation of substantial holdings difficult or impossible at times. It is also possible that certain markets may require payment for securities before delivery, and delays may be encountered in settling securities transactions. In some foreign markets, there may not be protection against failure by other parties to complete transactions. It may not be possible for a Fund to repatriate capital, dividends, interest, and other income from a particular country or governmental entity. In addition, securities of issuers located in or economically tied to countries with emerging markets may have limited marketability and may be subject to more abrupt or erratic price movements which could also have a negative effect on a Fund. Such factors may hinder a Fund’s ability to buy and sell emerging market securities in a timely manner, affecting the Fund’s investment strategies and potentially affecting the value of the Fund. |
• | Geographic Investment Risk. To the extent that a Fund invests a significant portion of its assets in a particular country or geographic region, the Fund will generally have more exposure to certain risks due to possible political, economic, social, or regulatory events in that country or region. Adverse developments in certain regions could also adversely affect securities of other countries whose economies appear to be unrelated and could have a negative impact on a Fund’s performance. |
• | Transaction Costs. Costs of buying, selling, and holding foreign securities, including brokerage, tax, and custody costs, may be higher than those involved in domestic transactions. |
Industry Risk. Industry risk is the possibility that a group of related securities will decline in price due to industry-specific developments. Companies in the same or similar industries may share common characteristics and are more likely to react similarly to industry-specific market or economic developments. Each Fund’s investments, if any, in multiple companies in a particular industry increase that Fund’s exposure to industry risk.
Investment Process Risk. The proprietary mathematical investment process used by INTECH may not achieve the desired results. Additionally, the rebalancing techniques used by INTECH may result in a higher portfolio turnover rate and related expenses compared to a “buy and hold” fund strategy. There is a risk that INTECH’s method of identifying stocks with higher volatility than the named benchmark index or its method of identifying stocks that tend to move in the same or opposite direction relative to each other (correlation) will not result in selecting stocks with continuing volatility or the expected correlation. In either case, a Fund may not outperform the named benchmark index, and likely will underperform its named benchmark index. Since INTECH’s mathematical investment process seeks stocks that have higher volatility relative to the named benchmark index, a Fund may tend to invest in the smaller capitalization members of the named benchmark index, or other stocks, that typically exhibit greater volatility. Consequently, in conditions where market capital is temporarily concentrated in the larger stocks contained in the named benchmark index, and fewer stocks are driving benchmark index
30 | Janus Investment Fund
returns, the performance of a Fund may be negatively affected relative to the named benchmark index. On an occasional basis, INTECH makes changes to its mathematical investment process that do not require shareholder notice. These changes may result in changes to the portfolio, might not provide the intended results, and may adversely impact a Fund’s performance. In addition, others may attempt to utilize public information related to INTECH’s investment strategy in a way that may affect performance.
To minimize the risk of significant underperformance relative to the named benchmark index, INTECH has designed certain risk controls. The Funds normally remain as fully invested as possible and do not seek to lessen the effects of a declining market through hedging or temporary defensive positions. However, they may invest in exchange-traded funds or use futures, options, and other derivatives to gain exposure to the stock market pending investment of cash balances or to meet liquidity needs. There is no guarantee that these types of investments will work and their use could cause lower returns or even losses to the Funds.
Market Risk. The value of a Fund’s portfolio may decrease if the value of an individual company or security, or multiple companies or securities, in the portfolio decreases. Further, regardless of how well individual companies or securities perform, the value of a Fund’s portfolio could also decrease if there are deteriorating economic or market conditions, including, but not limited to, a general decline in prices on the stock markets, a general decline in real estate markets, a decline in commodities prices, or if the market favors different types of securities than the types of securities in which the Fund invests. If the value of the Fund’s portfolio decreases, the Fund’s net asset value will also decrease, which means if you sell your shares in the Fund you may lose money.
The financial crisis that began in 2008 caused a significant decline in the value and liquidity of many securities of issuers worldwide in the equity and fixed-income/credit markets. In response to the crisis, the United States and certain foreign governments, along with the U.S. Federal Reserve and certain foreign central banks took steps to support the financial markets. The withdrawal of this support, a failure of measures put in place to respond to the crisis, or investor perception that such efforts were not sufficient each could negatively affect financial markets generally, and the value and liquidity of specific securities. In addition, policy and legislative changes in the United States and in other countries continue to impact many aspects of financial regulation. The effect of these changes on the markets, and the practical implications for market participants, including a Fund, may not be fully known for some time. As a result, it may also be unusually difficult to identify both investment risks and opportunities, which could limit or preclude the Fund’s ability to achieve its investment objective. Therefore, it is important to understand that the value of your investment may fall, sometimes sharply, and you could lose money.
The enactment of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the “Dodd-Frank Act”) in July 2010 provided for widespread regulation of financial institutions, consumer financial products and services, broker-dealers, over-the-counter derivatives, investment advisers, credit rating agencies, and mortgage lending, which expands federal oversight in the financial sector, including the investment management industry. Many provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act remain pending and will be implemented through future rulemaking. Therefore, the ultimate impact of the Dodd-Frank Act and the regulations under the Dodd-Frank Act on the Funds and the investment management industry as a whole, is not yet certain.
Real Estate Securities Risk. To the extent it holds equity and/or debt securities of real estate-related companies, a Fund may be affected by the risks associated with real estate investments. The value of securities of companies in real estate and real estate-related industries, including securities of REITs, is sensitive to decreases in real estate values and rental income, property taxes, interest rates, tax and regulatory requirements, overbuilding/supply and demand, increased competition, local and general economic conditions, increases in operating costs, environmental liabilities, management skill in running a REIT, and the creditworthiness of the REIT. In addition, mortgage REITs and mortgage-backed securities are subject to prepayment risk. Mortgage-backed securities comprised of subprime mortgages and investments in other real estate-backed securities comprised of under-performing real estate assets also may be subject to a higher degree of credit risk, valuation risk, and liquidity risk. If a Fund has REIT investments, the Fund’s shareholders will indirectly bear their proportionate share of the REIT’s expenses, in addition to their proportionate share of the Fund’s expenses.
REIT Risk. To the extent that a Fund holds REITs, it may be subject to the additional risks associated with REIT investments. The ability to trade REITs in the secondary market can be more limited compared to other equity investments, and certain REITs have relatively small market capitalizations, which can increase the volatility of the market price for their securities. REITs are also subject to heavy cash flow dependency to allow them to make distributions to their shareholders. The prices of equity REITs are affected by changes in the value of the underlying property owned by the REITs and changes in capital
31 | Janus Investment Fund
markets and interest rates. The prices of mortgage REITs are affected by the quality of any credit they extend, the creditworthiness of the mortgages they hold, as well as by the value of the property that secures the mortgages. Equity REITs and mortgage REITs generally are not diversified and are subject to heavy cash flow dependency, defaults by borrowers, and self-liquidation. There is also the risk that borrowers under mortgages held by a REIT or lessees of a property that a REIT owns may be unable to meet their obligations to the REIT. In the event of a default by a borrower or lessee, the REIT may incur substantial costs associated with protecting its investments. Certain “special purpose” REITs in which a Fund may invest focus their assets in specific real property sectors, such as hotels, shopping malls, nursing homes, or warehouses, and are therefore subject to the specific risks associated with adverse developments in these sectors.
32 | Janus Investment Fund
Janus Capital Management LLC, 151 Detroit Street, Denver, Colorado 80206-4805, is the investment adviser to each Fund. INTECH is responsible for the day-to-day management of the INTECH Funds’ investment portfolios subject to the general oversight of Janus Capital. Janus Capital also provides certain administration and other services and is responsible for other business affairs of each Fund.
Janus Capital (together with its predecessors) has served as investment adviser to Janus mutual funds since 1970 and currently serves as investment adviser to all of the Janus funds, acts as subadviser for a number of private-label mutual funds, and provides separate account advisory services for institutional accounts and other unregistered products.
The Trust and Janus Capital have received an exemptive order from the Securities and Exchange Commission that permits Janus Capital, subject to the approval of the Trustees, to appoint or replace certain subadvisers to manage all or a portion of a Fund’s assets and enter into, amend, or terminate a subadvisory agreement with certain subadvisers without obtaining shareholder approval (a “manager-of-managers structure”). Implementation of a manager-of-managers structure, however, would need to be approved by a Fund’s shareholders. The manager-of-managers structure applies to subadvisers that are not affiliated with the Trust or Janus Capital (“non-affiliated subadvisers”), as well as any subadviser that is an indirect or direct “wholly-owned subsidiary” (as such term is defined by the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended) of Janus Capital or of another company that, indirectly or directly, wholly owns Janus Capital (collectively, “wholly-owned subadvisers”).
Pursuant to the order, Janus Capital, with the approval of the Trustees, has the discretion to terminate any subadviser and allocate and reallocate a Fund’s assets among Janus Capital and any other non-affiliated subadvisers or wholly-owned subadvisers (including terminating a non-affiliated subadviser and replacing it with a wholly-owned subadviser). Janus Capital, subject to oversight and supervision by the Trustees, has responsibility to oversee any subadviser to a Fund and to recommend for approval by the Trustees, the hiring, termination, and replacement of subadvisers for the Funds. The order also permits a Fund to disclose subadvisers’ fees only in the aggregate in the SAI. In the event that Janus Capital hires a new subadviser pursuant to the manager-of-managers structure, the affected Fund(s) would provide shareholders with information about the new subadviser and subadvisory agreement within 90 days.
Janus Capital furnishes certain administration, compliance, and accounting services for the Funds and is reimbursed by the Funds for certain of its costs in providing those services (to the extent Janus Capital seeks reimbursement and such costs are not otherwise waived). In addition, employees of Janus Capital and/or its affiliates may serve as officers of the Trust. Janus Capital provides office space for the Funds. Some expenses related to compensation payable to the Janus funds’ Chief Compliance Officer and compliance staff are shared with the Janus funds. The Funds also pay for salaries, fees, and expenses of certain Janus Capital employees and Fund officers, with respect to certain specified administration functions they perform on behalf of the Janus funds. The Janus funds pay these costs based on out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Janus Capital, and these costs are separate and apart from advisory fees and other expenses paid in connection with the investment advisory services Janus Capital provides to the Funds.
Each Fund pays Janus Capital an investment advisory fee and incurs expenses, including the distribution and shareholder servicing fees (12b-1 fee), administrative services fees payable pursuant to the Transfer Agency Agreement, any other transfer agent and custodian fees and expenses, legal and auditing fees, printing and mailing costs of sending reports and other information to existing shareholders, and Independent Trustees’ fees and expenses. Each Fund’s investment advisory fee is calculated daily and paid monthly. Each Fund’s advisory agreement details the investment advisory fee and other expenses that each Fund must pay. Janus Capital pays INTECH a subadvisory fee from its investment advisory fee for managing the Funds.
The following table reflects each Fund’s contractual investment advisory fee rate (expressed as an annual rate), as well as the actual investment advisory fee rate paid by each Fund to Janus Capital (gross and net of fee waivers). The investment advisory fee rate is aggregated to include all investment advisory fees paid by a Fund. The rate shown is a fixed rate based on each Fund’s average daily net assets.

(1) | Janus Capital has agreed to waive its investment advisory fee and/or reimburse Fund expenses to the extent that each Fund’s total annual fund operating expenses (excluding the distribution and shareholder servicing fees, administrative services fees payable pursuant to the Transfer Agency Agreement, brokerage commissions, interest, dividends, taxes, acquired fund fees and expenses, and extraordinary expenses) exceed certain levels until at least November 1, 2015. Application of the expense waivers and their effect on annual fund operating expenses is reflected, when applicable, in the “Fees and Expenses of the Fund” table in each Fund Summary of the Prospectus, and additional information is included under “Expense Limitations” below. The waivers are not reflected in the contractual fee rates shown. |
(2) | For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014, the Fund did not pay Janus Capital any investment advisory fees (net of fee waivers) because the Fund’s fee waiver exceeded the investment advisory fee. |
A discussion regarding the basis for the Trustees’ approval of the Funds’ investment advisory agreements and subadvisory agreements is included in the Funds’ annual or semiannual report to shareholders. You can request the Funds’ annual or semiannual reports (as they become available), free of charge, by contacting your plan sponsor, broker-dealer, or financial intermediary, or by contacting a Janus representative at 1-877-335-2687. The reports are also available, free of charge, at janus.com/info.
Expense Limitations
Janus Capital has contractually agreed to waive the advisory fee payable by each Fund or reimburse expenses in an amount equal to the amount, if any, that the Fund’s normal operating expenses in any fiscal year, including the investment advisory fee, but excluding the distribution and shareholder servicing fees (applicable to Class A Shares, Class C Shares, and Class S Shares), administrative services fees payable pursuant to the Transfer Agency Agreement, brokerage commissions, interest, dividends, taxes, acquired fund fees and expenses, and extraordinary expenses, exceed the annual rate shown below. For information about how the expense limit affects the total expenses of each Fund, see the “Fees and Expenses of the Fund” table in each Fund Summary of the Prospectus. Janus Capital has agreed to continue each waiver until at least November 1, 2015.

Information about the investment personnel’s compensation structure and other accounts managed, as well as the range of their individual ownership of securities of the specific Fund(s) they manage and the aggregate range of their individual ownership in all mutual funds advised by Janus Capital, is included in the SAI.
Conflicts of Interest
Janus Capital and INTECH each manage many funds and numerous other accounts, which may include separate accounts and other pooled investment vehicles, such as hedge funds. Side-by-side management of multiple accounts, including the management of a cash collateral pool for securities lending and investing the Janus funds’ cash, may give rise to conflicts of interest among those accounts, and may create potential risks, such as the risk that investment activity in one account may adversely affect another account. For example, short sale activity in an account could adversely affect the market value of long positions in one or more other accounts (and vice versa). Side-by-side management may raise additional potential conflicts of interest relating to the allocation of investment opportunities and the aggregation and allocation of trades. Additionally, Janus Capital is the adviser to the Janus “funds of funds,” which are funds that invest primarily in other mutual funds managed by Janus Capital. Because Janus Capital is the adviser to the Janus “funds of funds” and the Janus funds, it is subject to certain potential conflicts of interest when allocating the assets of a Janus “fund of funds” among such Janus funds. To the extent that a Fund is an underlying fund in a Janus “fund of funds,” a potential conflict of interest arises when allocating the assets of the Janus “fund of funds” to that Fund. Purchases and redemptions of fund shares by a Janus “fund of funds” due to reallocations or rebalancings may result in a fund having to sell securities or invest cash when it otherwise would not do so. Such transactions could accelerate the realization of taxable income if sales of securities resulted in gains and could also increase a fund’s transaction costs. Large redemptions by a Janus “fund of funds” may cause a fund’s expense

ratio to increase due to a resulting smaller asset base. A further discussion of potential conflicts of interest and a discussion of certain procedures intended to mitigate such potential conflicts are contained in the Funds’ SAI.
36 | Janus Investment Fund
CLOSED FUND POLICIES
A Fund may limit sales of its Shares to new investors. If sales of a Fund are limited, it is expected that existing shareholders invested in the Fund would be permitted to continue to purchase Shares through their existing Fund accounts and to reinvest any dividends or capital gains distributions in such accounts, absent highly unusual circumstances. Requests for new accounts into a closed fund would be reviewed by management, taking into consideration eligibility requirements and whether the addition to the fund is believed to negatively impact existing fund shareholders. The closed fund may decline opening new accounts, including eligible new accounts, if it would be in the best interests of the fund and its shareholders. If applicable, additional information regarding general policies and exceptions can be found in the closed funds’ prospectuses and in the “Shares of the Trust” section of the SAI.
LIQUIDATION/REORGANIZATION OF A FUND
It is important to know that, pursuant to the Trust’s Amended and Restated Agreement and Declaration of Trust, the Trustees have the authority to merge, liquidate, and/or reorganize a Fund into another fund without seeking shareholder vote or consent.
DISTRIBUTION OF THE FUNDS
The Funds are distributed by Janus Distributors LLC (“Janus Distributors”), which is a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. (“FINRA”). To obtain information about FINRA member firms and their associated persons, you may contact FINRA at www.finra.org, or 1-800-289-9999.
37 | Janus Investment Fund
DISTRIBUTIONS
To avoid taxation of the Funds, the Internal Revenue Code requires each Fund to distribute all or substantially all of its net investment income and any net capital gains realized on its investments at least annually. Distributions are made at the class level, so they may vary from class to class within a single Fund.
Distribution Schedule
Dividends from net investment income for INTECH Global Dividend Fund are normally declared and distributed monthly. Dividends from net investment income for each of the other Funds are normally declared and distributed in December. In addition, distributions of net capital gains are normally declared and distributed in December. If necessary, dividends and net capital gains may be distributed at other times as well. The date you receive your distribution may vary depending on how your intermediary processes trades. Please consult your intermediary for details.
How Distributions Affect a Fund’s NAV
Distributions are paid to shareholders as of the record date of a distribution of a Fund, regardless of how long the shares have been held. Undistributed dividends and net capital gains are included in each Fund’s daily net asset value (“NAV”). The share price of a Fund drops by the amount of the distribution, net of any subsequent market fluctuations. For example, assume that on December 31, a Fund declared a dividend in the amount of $0.25 per share. If the Fund’s share price was $10.00 on December 30, the Fund’s share price on December 31 would be $9.75, barring market fluctuations. You should be aware that distributions from a taxable mutual fund do not increase the value of your investment and may create income tax obligations.
“Buying a Dividend”
If you purchase shares of a Fund just before a distribution, you will pay the full price for the shares and receive a portion of the purchase price back as a taxable distribution. This is referred to as “buying a dividend.” In the above example, if you bought shares on December 30, you would have paid $10.00 per share. On December 31, the Fund would pay you $0.25 per share as a dividend and your shares would now be worth $9.75 per share. Unless your account is set up as a tax-deferred account, dividends paid to you would be included in your gross income for tax purposes, even though you may not have participated in the increase in NAV of the Fund, whether or not you reinvested the dividends. You should consult with your financial intermediary or tax adviser as to potential tax consequences of any distributions that may be paid shortly after purchase.
For your convenience, distributions of net investment income and net capital gains are automatically reinvested in additional Shares of the Fund without any sales charge. To receive distributions in cash, contact your financial intermediary, or a Janus representative (1-800-333-1181) if you hold Class I Shares directly with Janus. Whether reinvested or paid in cash, the distributions may be subject to taxes, unless your shares are held in a qualified tax-deferred plan or account.
TAXES
As with any investment, you should consider the tax consequences of investing in the Funds. The following is a general discussion of certain federal income tax consequences of investing in the Funds. The discussion does not apply to qualified tax-deferred accounts or other non-taxable entities, nor is it a complete analysis of the federal income tax implications of investing in the Funds. You should consult your tax adviser regarding the effect that an investment in a Fund may have on your particular tax situation, including the federal, state, local, and foreign tax consequences of your investment.
Taxes on Distributions
Distributions by the Funds are subject to federal income tax, regardless of whether the distribution is made in cash or reinvested in additional shares of a Fund. Distributions from net investment income (which includes dividends, interest, and realized net short-term capital gains), other than qualified dividend income, are taxable to shareholders as ordinary income. Distributions of qualified dividend income are taxed to individuals and other noncorporate shareholders at long-term capital gain rates, provided certain holding period and other requirements are satisfied. Distributions of net capital gain (i.e., the excess of net long-term capital gain over net short-term capital loss) are taxable as long-term capital gain, regardless of how long a shareholder has held Fund shares. In certain states, a portion of the distributions (depending on the sources of a Fund’s income) may be exempt from state and local taxes. Individuals, trusts, and estates whose income exceeds certain threshold amounts are subject to a 3.8% Medicare contribution tax on net investment income in tax years beginning on or after January 1, 2013. Net investment income includes dividends paid by a Fund and capital gains from any sale or exchange
38 | Janus Investment Fund
of Fund shares. A Fund’s net investment income and capital gains are distributed to (and may be taxable to) those persons who are shareholders of the Fund at the record date of such payments. Although a Fund’s total net income and net realized gain are the results of its operations, the per share amount distributed or taxable to shareholders is affected by the number of Fund shares outstanding at the record date. Distributions declared to shareholders of record in October, November, or December and paid on or before January 31 of the succeeding year will be treated for federal income tax purposes as if received by shareholders on December 31 of the year in which the distribution was declared. Generally, account tax information will be made available to shareholders on or before February 15 of each year. Information regarding distributions may also be reported to the Internal Revenue Service.
Distributions made by a Fund with respect to Shares purchased through a qualified retirement plan will generally be exempt from current taxation if left to accumulate within the qualified plan. Generally, withdrawals from qualified plans may be subject to federal income tax at ordinary income rates and, if made before age 591/2, a 10% penalty tax may be imposed. The federal income tax status of your investment depends on the features of your qualified plan. For further information, please contact your plan sponsor or tax adviser.
Taxes on Sales or Exchanges
Any time you sell or exchange shares of a Fund in a taxable account, it is considered a taxable event. For federal income tax purposes, an exchange is treated the same as a sale. Depending on the purchase price and the sale price, you may have a gain or loss on the transaction. The gain or loss will generally be treated as a long-term capital gain or loss if you held your shares for more than one year and if not held for such period, as a short-term capital gain or loss. Any tax liabilities generated by your transactions are your responsibility.
The Funds may be required to withhold U.S. federal income tax on all distributions and redemptions payable to shareholders who fail to provide their correct taxpayer identification number, fail to make certain required certifications, or who have been notified by the Internal Revenue Service that they are subject to backup withholding. The current backup withholding rate is applied.
If a shareholder does not meet the requirements of the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (“FATCA”), a Fund may be required to impose a 30% U.S. withholding tax on distributions and proceeds from the sale or other disposition of shares in the Fund. FATCA withholding will generally apply to payments of dividends made on or after June 30, 2014, and payments of gross proceeds from sales of Fund shares made on or after December 31, 2016. Shareholders should consult their individual tax advisors regarding the possible implications of this legislation.
When shareholders sell Fund shares from a taxable account, they typically receive information on their tax forms that calculates their gain or loss using the average cost method. Prior to January 1, 2012, this information was not reported to the IRS, and shareholders had the option of calculating gains or losses using an alternative IRS permitted method. In accordance with legislation passed by Congress in 2008, however, your intermediary (or the Fund, if you hold Class I Shares directly with Janus) began reporting cost basis information to the IRS for shares purchased on or after January 1, 2012 and sold thereafter. Your intermediary (or the Fund) will permit shareholders to elect their preferred cost basis method. In the absence of an election, your cost basis method will be your intermediary’s default method, unless you hold Class I Shares directly with Janus in which case the Fund will use an average cost basis method. Please consult your tax adviser to determine the appropriate cost basis method for your particular tax situation and to learn more about how the new cost basis reporting laws apply to you and your investments.
Taxation of the Funds
Dividends, interest, and some capital gains received by the Funds on foreign securities may be subject to foreign tax withholding or other foreign taxes. If a Fund is eligible, it may from year to year make the election permitted under Section 853 of the Internal Revenue Code to pass through such taxes to shareholders as a foreign tax credit. If such an election is not made, any foreign taxes paid or accrued will represent an expense to the Funds.
Certain fund transactions may involve short sales, futures, options, swap agreements, hedged investments, and other similar transactions, and may be subject to special provisions of the Internal Revenue Code that, among other things, can potentially affect the character, amount, and timing of distributions to shareholders, and utilization of capital loss carryforwards. The Funds will monitor their transactions and may make certain tax elections and use certain investment strategies where applicable in order to mitigate the effect of these tax provisions, if possible.
39 | Janus Investment Fund
The Funds do not expect to pay any federal income or excise taxes because they intend to meet certain requirements of the Internal Revenue Code, including the distribution each year of all their net investment income and net capital gains. It is important that the Funds meet these requirements so that any earnings on your investment will not be subject to federal income taxes twice. Funds that invest in partnerships may be subject to state tax liabilities.
40 | Janus Investment Fund
With certain limited exceptions, the Funds are generally available only to shareholders residing in the United States and employees of Janus or its affiliates. For purposes of this policy, the Funds require that a shareholder and/or entity be a U.S. citizen residing in the United States or a U.S. Territory (including overseas U.S. military or diplomatic addresses) or a resident alien residing in the United States or a U.S. Territory with a valid U.S. Taxpayer Identification Number to open an account with a Fund.
The Funds offer multiple classes of shares in order to meet the needs of various types of investors.
Class A Shares and Class C Shares are offered through financial intermediary platforms including, but not limited to, traditional brokerage platforms, mutual fund wrap fee programs, bank trust platforms, and retirement platforms. Class A Shares may be offered without an initial sales charge through certain retirement platforms and through certain financial intermediary platforms, including but not limited to, fee-based broker-dealers or financial advisors, primarily on their wrap account platform(s) where such broker-dealer or financial advisor imposes additional fees for services connected to the wrap account. Class A Shares pay up to 0.25% of net assets to financial intermediaries for the provision of distribution services and/or shareholder services on behalf of their clients. Class C Shares pay up to 0.75% of net assets for payment to financial intermediaries for the provision of distribution services and up to 0.25% of net assets for the provision of shareholder services on behalf of their clients. In addition, Class A Shares and Class C Shares pay financial intermediaries for the provision of administrative services, including recordkeeping, subaccounting, order processing for omnibus or networked accounts, or other shareholder services provided to shareholders.
Class S Shares are offered through financial intermediary platforms including, but not limited to, retirement platforms and asset allocation, mutual fund wrap, or other discretionary or nondiscretionary fee-based investment advisory programs. In addition, Class S Shares may be available through certain financial intermediaries who have an agreement with Janus Capital or its affiliates to offer the Shares on their supermarket platforms. Class S Shares pay up to 0.25% of net assets to financial intermediaries for the provision of distribution services and/or shareholder services and up to 0.25% of net assets for the provision of administrative services, including recordkeeping, subaccounting, order processing for omnibus or networked accounts, or other shareholder services provided to or on behalf of their clients.
Class I Shares are available through certain financial intermediary platforms including, but not limited to, mutual fund wrap fee programs, managed account programs, asset allocation programs, bank trust platforms, as well as certain retirement platforms. Class I Shares pay financial intermediaries for the provision of administrative services, including recordkeeping, subaccounting, order processing for omnibus or networked accounts, or other shareholder services provided to shareholders. Class I Shares are also available to certain direct institutional investors including, but not limited to, corporations, certain retirement plans, public plans and foundations/endowments.
Class N Shares are generally available only to financial intermediaries purchasing on behalf of 401(k) plans, 457 plans, 403(b) plans, Taft-Hartley multi-employer plans, profit-sharing and money purchase pension plans, defined benefit plans and nonqualified deferred compensation plans. Class N Shares also are available to Janus proprietary products. Class N Shares are not available to retail non-retirement accounts, traditional or Roth individual retirement accounts (“IRAs”), Coverdell Education Savings Accounts, SEPs, SARSEPs, SIMPLE IRAs, or 529 college savings plans.
Class T Shares are available through certain financial intermediary platforms including, but not limited to, mutual fund wrap fee programs, managed account programs, asset allocation programs, bank trust platforms, as well as certain retirement platforms. In addition, Class T Shares may be available through certain financial intermediaries who have an agreement with Janus Capital or its affiliates to offer the Shares on their supermarket platforms. Class T Shares pay up to 0.25% of net assets to financial intermediaries for the provision of administrative services, including recordkeeping, subaccounting, order processing for omnibus or networked accounts, or other shareholder services provided to shareholders.
The Shares are not offered directly to individual investors. Consult with your financial intermediary representative for additional information on whether the Shares are an appropriate investment choice. Certain funds may not be available through certain of these intermediaries and not all financial intermediaries offer all classes of shares. If your financial intermediary offers more than one class of shares, you should carefully consider which class of shares to purchase. Certain classes have higher expenses than other classes, which may lower the return on your investment. For instructions on how to purchase, exchange, or redeem Shares, contact your financial intermediary or refer to your plan documents. For Class I Shares held directly with Janus, please contact a Janus representative at 1-800-333-1181.
41 | Janus Investment Fund
The per share NAV for each class is computed by dividing the total value of assets allocated to the class, less liabilities allocated to that class, by the total number of outstanding shares of the class. A Fund’s NAV is calculated as of the close of the regular trading session of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) (normally 4:00 p.m. New York time) each day that the NYSE is open (“business day”). However, the NAV may be calculated earlier if trading on the NYSE is restricted, or as permitted by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Foreign securities held by a Fund may be traded on days and at times when the NYSE is closed and the NAV is therefore not calculated. Accordingly, the value of a Fund’s holdings may change on days that are not business days in the United States and on which you will not be able to purchase or redeem a Fund’s Shares.
The price you pay for purchases of Shares is the public offering price, which is the NAV next determined after your request is received in good order by a Fund or its agents, plus, for Class A Shares, any applicable initial sales charge. The price you pay to sell Shares is also the NAV, although for Class A Shares and Class C Shares, a contingent deferred sales charge may be taken out of the proceeds. Your financial intermediary may charge you a separate or additional fee for processing purchases and redemptions of Shares. In order to receive a day’s price, your order must be received in good order by a Fund or its agents by the close of the regular trading session of the NYSE.
Securities held by the Funds are valued in accordance with policies and procedures established by and under the supervision of the Trustees. To the extent available, equity securities are generally valued on the basis of market quotations. Most fixed-income securities are typically valued using an evaluated bid price supplied by a pricing service that is intended to reflect market value. The evaluated bid price is an evaluation that may consider factors such as security prices, yields, maturities, and ratings. Certain short-term instruments maturing within 60 days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. If a market quotation or evaluated price for a security is not readily available or is deemed unreliable, or if an event that is expected to affect the value of the security occurs after the close of the principal exchange or market on which the security is traded, and before the close of the NYSE, a fair value of the security will be determined in good faith under the policies and procedures. Such events include, but are not limited to: (i) a significant event that may affect the securities of a single issuer, such as a merger, bankruptcy, or significant issuer-specific development; (ii) an event that may affect an entire market, such as a natural disaster or significant governmental action; (iii) a non-significant event such as a market closing early or not opening, or a security trading halt; and (iv) pricing of a non-valued security and a restricted or non-public security. This type of fair value pricing may be more commonly used with foreign equity securities, but it may also be used with, among other things, thinly-traded domestic securities or fixed-income securities. Special valuation considerations may apply with respect to “odd-lot” fixed-income transactions which, due to their small size, may receive evaluated prices by pricing services which reflect a large block trade and not what actually could be obtained for the odd-lot position. For valuation purposes, quotations of foreign portfolio securities, other assets and liabilities, and forward contracts stated in foreign currency are generally translated into U.S. dollar equivalents at the prevailing market rates. The Funds use systematic fair valuation models provided by independent pricing services to value foreign equity securities in order to adjust for stale pricing, which may occur between the close of certain foreign exchanges and the close of the NYSE.
Due to the subjective nature of systematic fair value pricing, a Fund’s value for a particular security may be different from the last quoted market price. Systematic fair value pricing may reduce arbitrage activity involving the frequent buying and selling of mutual fund shares by investors seeking to take advantage of a perceived lag between a change in the value of a Fund’s portfolio securities and the reflection of such change in that Fund’s NAV, as further described in the “Excessive Trading” section of this Prospectus. While funds that invest in foreign securities may be at a greater risk for arbitrage activity, such activity may also arise in funds which do not invest in foreign securities, for example, when trading in a security held by a fund is halted and does not resume prior to the time the fund calculates its NAV (referred to as “stale pricing”). Funds that hold thinly-traded securities, such as certain small-capitalization securities or high-yield fixed-income securities, may be subject to attempted use of arbitrage techniques. To the extent that a Fund’s valuation of a security is different from the security’s market value, short-term arbitrage traders buying and/or selling shares of a Fund may dilute the NAV of that Fund, which negatively impacts long-term shareholders. The Funds’ fair value pricing and excessive trading policies and procedures may not completely eliminate short-term trading in certain omnibus accounts and other accounts traded through intermediaries.
42 | Janus Investment Fund
The value of the securities of other open-end funds held by a Fund, if any, will be calculated using the NAV of such open-end funds, and the prospectuses for such open-end funds explain the circumstances under which they use fair value pricing and the effects of using fair value pricing.
All purchases, exchanges, redemptions, or other account activity must be processed through your financial intermediary or plan sponsor. Your financial intermediary or plan sponsor is responsible for promptly transmitting purchase, redemption, and other requests to the Funds under the arrangements made between your financial intermediary or plan sponsor and its customers. The Funds are not responsible for the failure of any financial intermediary or plan sponsor to carry out its obligations to its customers.
Class A Shares, Class C Shares, Class S Shares, Class I Shares, Class N Shares, and Class T Shares are offered by this Prospectus. The Funds offer multiple classes of shares in order to meet the needs of various types of investors. For more information about these classes of Shares and whether or not you are eligible to purchase these Shares, please call 1-877-335-2687.
Each class represents an interest in the same portfolio of investments, but has different charges and expenses, allowing you to choose the class that best meets your needs. For an analysis of fees associated with an investment in each share class or other similar funds, please visit www.finra.org/fundanalyzer. When choosing a share class, you should consider:

DISTRIBUTION, SERVICING, AND ADMINISTRATIVE FEES
Distribution and Shareholder Servicing Plans
Under separate distribution and shareholder servicing plans adopted in accordance with Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, for Class A Shares and Class S Shares (each a “Plan”) and Class C Shares (the “Class C Plan”), each Fund pays Janus Distributors, the Trust’s distributor, a fee for the sale and distribution and/or shareholder servicing of the Shares based on the average daily net assets of each, at the following annual rates:
44 | Janus Investment Fund
Class | 12b-1 Fee for the Funds | |||
Class A Shares | 0.25% | |||
Class C Shares | 1.00% | (1) | ||
Class S Shares | 0.25% |
(1) | Up to 0.75% of this fee is for distribution services and up to 0.25% of this fee is for shareholder services. |
Under the terms of each Plan, the Trust is authorized to make payments to Janus Distributors for remittance to retirement plan service providers, broker-dealers, bank trust departments, financial advisors, and other financial intermediaries, as compensation for distribution and/or shareholder services performed by such entities for their customers who are investors in the Funds.
Janus Distributors is entitled to retain all fees paid under the Class C Plan for the first 12 months on any investment in Class C Shares to recoup its expenses with respect to the payment of commissions on sales of Class C Shares. Financial intermediaries will become eligible for compensation under the Class C Plan beginning in the 13th month following the purchase of Class C Shares, although Janus Distributors may, pursuant to a written agreement between Janus Distributors and a particular financial intermediary, pay such financial intermediary 12b-1 fees prior to the 13th month following the purchase of Class C Shares.
Financial intermediaries may from time to time be required to meet certain criteria in order to receive 12b-1 fees. Janus Distributors is entitled to retain some or all fees payable under each Plan in certain circumstances, including when there is no broker of record or when certain qualification standards have not been met by the broker of record.
Because 12b-1 fees are paid out of a Fund’s assets on an ongoing basis, over time they will increase the cost of your investment and may cost you more than paying other types of sales charges.
Administrative Fees
Class A Shares, Class C Shares, and Class I Shares
Certain, but not all, intermediaries may charge fees for administrative services, including recordkeeping, subaccounting, order processing for omnibus or networked accounts, or other shareholder services provided by intermediaries on behalf of shareholders of the Funds. Order processing includes the submission of transactions through the National Securities Clearing Corporation (“NSCC”) or similar systems, or those processed on a manual basis with Janus. Other shareholder services may include the provision of order confirmations, periodic account statements, forwarding prospectuses, shareholder reports, and other materials to existing customers, and answering inquiries regarding accounts. Janus Services pays these administrative fees to intermediaries on behalf of the Funds. Janus Services is then reimbursed by the Funds for such payments. Because the form and amount charged varies by intermediary, the amount of the administrative fee borne by the class is an average of all fees charged by intermediaries. In the event an intermediary receiving payments from Janus Services on behalf of the Funds converts from a networking structure to an omnibus account structure, or otherwise experiences increased costs, fees borne by the Shares may increase. The Funds’ Trustees have set limits on fees that the Funds may incur with respect to administrative fees paid for omnibus or networked accounts. Such limits are subject to change by the Trustees in the future. Janus Services also seeks reimbursement for costs it incurs as transfer agent and for providing servicing.
Class S Shares and Class T Shares
Janus Services receives an administrative services fee at an annual rate of 0.25% of the average daily net assets of Class S Shares and Class T Shares of each Fund for providing, or arranging for the provision by intermediaries of, administrative services, including recordkeeping, subaccounting, order processing for omnibus or networked accounts, or other shareholder services provided on behalf of shareholders of the Funds. Order processing includes the submission of transactions through the NSCC or similar systems, or those processed on a manual basis with Janus. Other shareholder services may include the provision of order confirmations, periodic account statements, forwarding prospectuses, shareholder reports, and other materials to existing customers, and answering inquiries regarding accounts. Janus Services expects to use all or a significant portion of this fee to compensate intermediaries and retirement plan service providers for providing these services to their customers who invest in the Funds. Janus Services or its affiliates may also pay fees for services provided by intermediaries to the extent the fees charged by intermediaries exceed the 0.25% of net assets charged to the Funds.

PAYMENTS TO FINANCIAL INTERMEDIARIES BY JANUS CAPITAL OR ITS AFFILIATES
From their own assets, Janus Capital or its affiliates may pay selected brokerage firms or other financial intermediaries that sell certain classes of Shares of the Janus funds for distribution, marketing, promotional, or related services. Such payments may be based on gross sales, assets under management, or transactional charges, or on a combination of these factors. The amount of these payments is determined from time to time by Janus Capital, may be substantial, and may differ for different financial intermediaries. Payments based primarily on sales create an incentive to make new sales of shares, while payments based on assets create an incentive to retain previously sold shares. Sales- and asset-based payments currently range up to 25 basis points on sales and up to 20 basis points on average annual net assets of shares held through the intermediary and are subject to change. Payments based on transactional charges may include the payment or reimbursement of all or a portion of “ticket charges.” Ticket charges are fees charged to salespersons purchasing through a financial intermediary firm in connection with mutual fund purchases, redemptions, or exchanges. The payment or reimbursement of ticket charges creates an incentive for salespersons of an intermediary to sell shares of Janus funds over shares of funds for which there is lesser or no payment or reimbursement of any applicable ticket charge. Payments made with respect to certain classes of Shares may create an incentive for an intermediary to promote or favor other share classes of the Janus funds. Janus Capital and its affiliates consider a number of factors in making payments to financial intermediaries, including the distribution capabilities of the intermediary, the overall quality of the relationship, expected gross and/or net sales generated by the relationship, redemption and retention rates of assets held through the intermediary, the willingness of the intermediary to cooperate with Janus Capital’s marketing efforts, access to sales personnel, and the anticipated profitability of sales through the institutional relationship. These factors may change from time to time. Currently, the payments mentioned above are limited to Class A Shares, Class C Shares, and for certain financial intermediaries with advisory platforms, Class I Shares, and only for the top 100 distributors (measured by sales or expected sales of shares of the Janus funds). Broker-dealer firms currently receiving or expected to receive these fees are listed in the SAI.
In addition, for all share classes (except Class N Shares, if applicable), Janus Capital, Janus Distributors, or their affiliates may pay fees, from their own assets, to brokerage firms, banks, financial advisors, retirement plan service providers, and other financial intermediaries for providing other marketing or distribution-related services, as well as recordkeeping, subaccounting, transaction processing, and other shareholder or administrative services (including payments for processing transactions via NSCC or other means) in connection with investments in the Janus funds. These fees are in addition to any fees that may be paid by the Janus funds for these types of services or other services.
Janus Capital or its affiliates may also share certain marketing expenses with intermediaries, or pay for, or sponsor informational meetings, seminars, client awareness events, support for marketing materials, sales reporting, or business building programs for such financial intermediaries to raise awareness of the Funds. Janus Capital or its affiliates may make payments to participate in intermediary marketing support programs which may provide Janus Capital or its affiliates with one or more of the following benefits: attendance at sales conferences, participation in meetings or training sessions, access to or information about intermediary personnel, use of an intermediary’s marketing and communication infrastructure, fund analysis tools, business planning and strategy sessions with intermediary personnel, information on industry- or platform-specific developments, trends and service providers, and other marketing-related services. Such payments may be in addition to, or in lieu of, the payments described above. These payments are intended to promote the sales of Janus funds and to reimburse financial intermediaries, directly or indirectly, for the costs that they or their salespersons incur in connection with educational seminars, meetings, and training efforts about the Janus funds to enable the intermediaries and their salespersons to make suitable recommendations, provide useful services, and maintain the necessary infrastructure to make the Janus funds available to their customers.
The receipt of (or prospect of receiving) payments, reimbursements, and other forms of compensation described above may provide a financial intermediary and its salespersons with an incentive to favor sales of Janus funds’ shares over sales of other mutual funds (or non-mutual fund investments) or to favor sales of one class of Janus funds’ shares over sales of another Janus funds’ share class, with respect to which the financial intermediary does not receive such payments or receives them in a lower amount. The receipt of these payments may cause certain financial intermediaries to elevate the prominence of the Janus funds within such financial intermediary’s organization by, for example, placement on a list of preferred or recommended funds and/or the provision of preferential or enhanced opportunities to promote the Janus funds in various ways within such financial intermediary’s organization.
46 | Janus Investment Fund
From time to time, certain financial intermediaries approach Janus Capital to request that Janus Capital make contributions to certain charitable organizations. In these cases, Janus Capital’s contribution may result in the financial intermediary, or its salespersons, recommending Janus funds over other mutual funds (or non-mutual fund investments).
The payment arrangements described above will not change the price an investor pays for Shares nor the amount that a Janus fund receives to invest on behalf of the investor. However, as described elsewhere in this Prospectus, your financial adviser and/or his or her firm may also receive 12b-1 fees and/or administrative services fees in connection with your purchase and retention of Janus funds. When such fees are combined with the payments described above, the aggregate payments being made to a financial intermediary may be substantial. You should consider whether such arrangements exist when evaluating any recommendations from an intermediary to purchase or sell Shares of the Funds and, if applicable, when considering which share class of a Fund is most appropriate for you. Please contact your financial intermediary or plan sponsor for details on such arrangements.
With certain limited exceptions, the Funds are generally available only to shareholders residing in the United States. Unless you meet certain residency eligibility requirements, you may not be able to open an account or buy additional shares.
With the exception of Class I Shares, purchases of Shares may generally be made only through institutional channels such as financial intermediaries and retirement platforms. Class I Shares may be purchased directly with the Funds in certain circumstances as described in the “Minimum Investment Requirements” section. Contact your financial intermediary, a Janus representative (1-800-333-1181) if you hold Class I Shares directly with Janus, or refer to your plan documents for information on how to invest in each Fund, including additional information on minimum initial or subsequent investment requirements. Under certain circumstances, a Fund may permit an in-kind purchase of Shares. Your financial intermediary may charge you a separate or additional fee for processing purchases of Shares. Only certain financial intermediaries are authorized to receive purchase orders on the Funds’ behalf. As discussed under “Payments to financial intermediaries by Janus Capital or its affiliates,” Janus Capital and its affiliates may make payments to brokerage firms or other financial intermediaries that were instrumental in the acquisition or retention of shareholders for the Funds or that provide services in connection with investments in the Funds. You should consider such arrangements when evaluating any recommendation of the Funds.
Each Fund reserves the right to reject any purchase order, including exchange purchases, for any reason. The Funds are not intended for excessive trading. For more information about the Funds’ policy on excessive trading, refer to “Excessive Trading.”
In compliance with the Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001 (“USA PATRIOT Act”), your financial intermediary is required to verify certain information on your account application as part of its Anti-Money Laundering Program. You will be required to provide your full name, date of birth, social security number, and permanent street address to assist in verifying your identity. You may also be asked to provide documents that may help to establish your identity. Until verification of your identity is made, your financial intermediary may temporarily limit additional share purchases. In addition, your financial intermediary may close an account if it is unable to verify a shareholder’s identity. Please contact your financial intermediary if you need additional assistance when completing your application or additional information about the intermediary’s Anti-Money Laundering Program.
In an effort to ensure compliance with this law, Janus’ Anti-Money Laundering Program (the “Program”) provides for the development of internal practices, procedures and controls, designation of anti-money laundering compliance officers, an ongoing training program, and an independent audit function to determine the effectiveness of the Program.
Minimum Investment Requirements
Class A Shares, Class C Shares, Class S Shares, and Class T Shares
The minimum investment is $2,500 per Fund account for non-retirement accounts and $500 per Fund account for certain tax-deferred accounts or UGMA/UTMA accounts. Investors in a defined contribution plan through a third party administrator should refer to their plan document or contact their plan administrator for additional information. In addition, accounts held through certain wrap programs may not be subject to these minimums. Investors should refer to their intermediary for additional information.
47 | Janus Investment Fund
The maximum purchase in Class C Shares is $500,000 for any single purchase. The sales charge and expense structure of Class A Shares may be more advantageous for investors purchasing more than $500,000 of Fund shares.
Class I Shares
The minimum investment is $1 million for institutional investors investing directly with Janus. Institutional investors generally may meet the minimum investment amount by aggregating multiple accounts within the same Fund. Accounts offered through an intermediary institution must meet the minimum investment requirements of $2,500 per Fund account for non-retirement accounts and $500 per Fund account for certain tax-deferred accounts or UGMA/UTMA accounts. Directors, officers, and employees of Janus Capital Group Inc. (“JCGI”) and its affiliates, as well as Trustees and officers of the Funds, may purchase Class I Shares through certain financial intermediaries’ institutional platforms. For more information about this program and eligibility requirements, please contact a Janus representative at 1-800-333-1181. Exceptions to these minimums may apply for certain tax-deferred, tax-qualified and retirement plans, and accounts held through certain wrap programs. For additional information, contact your intermediary, plan sponsor, administrator, or a Janus representative, as applicable.
Class N Shares
Investors in a retirement plan through a third party administrator should refer to their plan documents or contact their plan administrator for information regarding account minimums.
Class A Shares, Class C Shares, Class S Shares, Class I Shares, and Class T Shares
Each Fund reserves the right to annually request that intermediaries close Fund accounts that are valued at less than $100, other than as a result solely of depreciation in share value. Certain accounts held through intermediaries may not be subject to closure due to the policies of the intermediaries. You may receive written notice from your intermediary to increase your account balance to the required minimum to avoid having your account closed provided you meet certain residency eligibility requirements. If you hold Class I Shares directly with a Fund, you may receive written notice prior to the closure of your Fund account so that you may increase your account balance to the required minimum provided you meet certain residency eligibility requirements. Please note that you may incur a tax liability as a result of a redemption.
Each Fund reserves the right to change the amount of these minimums or maximums from time to time or to waive them in whole or in part.
Systematic Purchase Plan
You may arrange for periodic purchases by authorizing your financial intermediary (or a Janus representative, if you hold Class I Shares directly with a Fund) to withdraw the amount of your investment from your bank account on a day or days you specify. Not all financial intermediaries offer this plan. Contact your financial intermediary or a Janus representative for details.
Initial Sales Charge
Class A Shares
An initial sales charge may apply to your purchase of Class A Shares of the Funds based on the amount invested, as set forth in the table below. The sales charge is allocated between Janus Distributors and your financial intermediary. Sales charges, as expressed as a percentage of offering price and as a percentage of your net investment, are shown in the table. The dollar amount of your initial sales charge is calculated as the difference between the public offering price and the net asset value of those shares. Since the offering price is calculated to two decimal places using standard rounding criteria, the number of shares purchased and the dollar amount of your sales charge as a percentage of the offering price and of your net investment may be higher or lower than the amounts set forth in the table depending on whether there was a downward or upward rounding.

(2) | A contingent deferred sales charge of 1.00% may apply to Class A Shares purchased without an initial sales charge if redeemed within 12 months of purchase. |
For purchases of Class A Shares of $1,000,000 or greater, from its own assets, Janus Distributors may pay financial intermediaries commissions as follows:
• | 1.00% on amounts from $1,000,000 to $4,000,000; |
• | plus 0.50% on amounts greater than $4,000,000 to $10,000,000; |
• | plus 0.25% on amounts over $10,000,000. |
The purchase totals eligible for these commissions are aggregated on a rolling one year basis so that the rate payable resets to the highest rate annually.
Qualifying for a Reduction or Waiver of Class A Shares Sales Charge
You may be able to lower your Class A Shares sales charge under certain circumstances. For example, you can combine Class A Shares and Class C Shares you already own (either in these Funds or certain other Janus funds) with your current purchase of Class A Shares of the Funds and certain other Janus funds (including Class C Shares of those funds) to take advantage of the breakpoints in the sales charge schedule as set forth above. Certain circumstances under which you may combine such ownership of Shares and purchases are described below. Contact your financial intermediary for more information.
Class A Shares of the Funds may be purchased without an initial sales charge by the following persons (and their spouses and children under 21 years of age): (i) registered representatives and other employees of intermediaries that have selling agreements with Janus Distributors to sell Class A Shares; (ii) directors, officers, and employees of JCGI and its affiliates; and (iii) Trustees and officers of the Trust. In addition, the initial sales charge may be waived on purchases of Class A Shares through financial intermediaries that have entered into an agreement with Janus Distributors that allows the waiver of the sales charge.
In order to obtain a sales charge discount, you should inform your financial intermediary of other accounts in which there are Fund holdings eligible to be aggregated to meet a sales charge breakpoint. These other accounts may include the accounts described under “Aggregating Accounts.” You may need to provide documents such as account statements or confirmation statements to prove that the accounts are eligible for aggregation. The Letter of Intent described below requires historical cost information in certain circumstances. You should retain records necessary to show the price you paid to purchase Fund shares, as the Funds, their agents, or your financial intermediary may not retain this information.
Right of Accumulation. You may purchase Class A Shares of a Fund at a reduced sales charge determined by aggregating the dollar amount of the new purchase (measured by the offering price) and the total prior day’s net asset value (net amount invested) of all Class A Shares of the Fund and of certain other classes (Class A Shares and Class C Shares of the Trust) of Janus funds then held by you, or held in accounts identified under “Aggregating Accounts,” and applying the sales charge applicable to such aggregate amount. In order for your purchases and holdings to be aggregated for purposes of qualifying for such discount, they must have been made through one financial intermediary and you must provide sufficient information to your financial intermediary at the time of purchase to permit verification that the purchase qualifies for the reduced sales charge. The right of accumulation is subject to modification or discontinuance at any time with respect to all shares purchased thereafter.
49 | Janus Investment Fund
Letter of Intent. You may obtain a reduced sales charge on Class A Shares by signing a Letter of Intent indicating your intention to purchase $50,000 or more of Class A Shares (including Class A Shares in other series of the Trust) over a 13-month period. The term of the Letter of Intent will commence upon the date you sign the Letter of Intent. You must refer to such Letter when placing orders. With regard to a Letter of Intent, the amount of investment for purposes of applying the sales load schedule includes (i) the historical cost (what you actually paid for the shares at the time of purchase, including any sales charges) of all Class A Shares acquired during the term of the Letter of Intent, minus (ii) the value of any redemptions of Class A Shares made during the term of the Letter of Intent. Each investment made during the period receives the reduced sales charge applicable to the total amount of the investment goal. A portion of shares purchased may be held in escrow to pay for any sales charge that may be applicable. If the goal is not achieved within the period, you must pay the difference between the sales charges applicable to the purchases made and the charges previously paid, or an appropriate number of escrowed shares will be redeemed. Please contact your financial intermediary to obtain a Letter of Intent application.
Aggregating Accounts. To take advantage of lower Class A Shares sales charges on large purchases or through the exercise of a Letter of Intent or right of accumulation, investments made by you, your spouse, and your children under age 21 may be aggregated if made for your own account(s) and/or certain other accounts such as:
• | trust accounts established by the above individuals (or the accounts of the primary beneficiary of the trust if the person who established the trust is deceased); |
• | solely controlled business accounts; and |
• | single participant retirement plans. |
To receive a reduced sales charge under rights of accumulation or a Letter of Intent, you must notify your financial intermediary of any eligible accounts that you, your spouse, and your children under age 21 have at the time of your purchase.
You may access information regarding sales loads, breakpoint discounts, and purchases of the Funds’ shares, free of charge, and in a clear and prominent format, on our website at janus.com/breakpoints, and by following the appropriate hyperlinks to the specific information.
Commission on Class C Shares
Janus Distributors may compensate your financial intermediary at the time of sale at a commission rate of 1.00% of the net asset value of the Class C Shares purchased. Service providers to qualified plans or other financial intermediaries will not receive this amount if they receive 12b-1 fees from the time of initial investment of assets in Class C Shares.
With certain limited exceptions, the Funds are generally available only to shareholders residing in the United States. Unless you meet certain residency eligibility requirements, the exchange privilege may not be available.
Contact your financial intermediary, a Janus representative (1-800-333-1181) if you hold Class I Shares directly with a Fund, or consult your plan documents to exchange into other funds in the Trust. Be sure to read the prospectus of the fund into which you are exchanging. An exchange from one fund to another is generally a taxable transaction (except for certain tax-deferred accounts).
• | You may generally exchange Shares of a Fund for Shares of the same class of any other fund in the Trust offered through your financial intermediary or qualified plan. |
• | You may also exchange shares of one class for another class of shares within the same fund, provided the eligibility requirements of the class of shares to be received are met. Same-fund exchanges will only be processed in instances where there is no contingent deferred sales charge (“CDSC”) on the shares to be exchanged and no initial sales charge on the shares to be received. A Fund’s fees and expenses differ between share classes. Please read the Prospectus for the share class you are interested in prior to investing in that share class. Contact your financial intermediary or consult your plan documents for additional information. |
• | You must meet the minimum investment amount for each fund. |
50 | Janus Investment Fund
• | The exchange privilege is not intended as a vehicle for short-term or excessive trading. A Fund may suspend or terminate your exchange privilege if you make more than one round trip in the Fund in a 90-day period and may bar future purchases in the Fund or any of the other Janus funds. The Funds will work with intermediaries to apply the Funds’ exchange limits. However, the Funds may not always have the ability to monitor or enforce the trading activity in such accounts. For more information about the Funds’ policy on excessive trading, refer to “Excessive Trading.” |
• | Each Fund reserves the right to reject any exchange request and to modify or terminate the exchange privilege at any time. |
Waiver of Sales Charges
Class A Shares received through an exchange of Class A Shares of another fund of the Trust will not be subject to any initial sales charge of the Funds’ Class A Shares. Class A Shares or Class C Shares received through an exchange of Class A Shares or Class C Shares, respectively, of another fund of the Trust will not be subject to any applicable CDSC at the time of the exchange. Any CDSC applicable to redemptions of Class A Shares or Class C Shares will continue to be measured on the Shares received by exchange from the date of your original purchase. For more information about the CDSC, please refer to “Redemptions.” While Class C Shares do not have any front-end sales charges, their higher annual fund operating expenses mean that over time, you could end up paying more than the equivalent of the maximum allowable front-end sales charge.
With certain limited exceptions, the Funds are generally available only to shareholders residing in the United States. Unless you meet certain residency eligibility requirements, once you close your account, you may not make additional investments in the Funds.
Redemptions, like purchases, may generally be effected only through financial intermediaries, retirement platforms, and by certain direct institutional investors holding Class I Shares. Please contact your financial intermediary, a Janus representative (1-800-333-1181) if you hold Class I Shares directly with a Fund, or refer to the appropriate plan documents for details. Your financial intermediary may charge a processing or service fee in connection with the redemption of Shares.
Shares of each Fund may be redeemed on any business day on which the Fund’s NAV is calculated. Redemptions are duly processed at the NAV next calculated after your redemption order is received in good order by a Fund or its agents. Redemption proceeds, less any applicable CDSC for Class A Shares or Class C Shares, will normally be sent the business day following receipt of the redemption order.
Each Fund reserves the right to postpone payment of redemption proceeds for up to seven calendar days. Additionally, the right to require the Funds to redeem their Shares may be suspended, or the date of payment may be postponed beyond seven calendar days, whenever: (i) trading on the NYSE is restricted, as determined by the SEC, or the NYSE is closed (except for holidays and weekends); (ii) the SEC permits such suspension and so orders; or (iii) an emergency exists as determined by the SEC so that disposal of securities or determination of NAV is not reasonably practicable.
Each Fund reserves the right to annually request that intermediaries close Fund accounts that are valued at less than $100, other than as a result solely of depreciation in share value. Certain accounts held through intermediaries may not be subject to closure due to the policies of the intermediaries. You may receive written notice from your intermediary to increase your account balance to the required minimum to avoid having your account closed provided you meet certain residency eligibility requirements. If you hold Class I Shares directly with a Fund, you may receive written notice prior to the closure of your Fund account so that you may increase your account balance to the required minimum provided you meet certain residency eligibility requirements. Please note that you may incur a tax liability as a result of a redemption.
Large Shareholder Redemptions
Certain large shareholders, such as other funds, institutional investors, financial intermediaries, individuals, accounts, and Janus affiliates, may from time to time own (beneficially or of record) or control a significant percentage of a Fund’s Shares. Redemptions by these large shareholders of their holdings in a Fund may cause the Fund to sell portfolio securities at times when it would not otherwise do so, which may negatively impact the Fund’s NAV and liquidity. Similarly, large Fund share purchases may adversely affect a Fund’s performance to the extent that the Fund is delayed in investing new cash and is required to maintain a larger cash position than it ordinarily would. These transactions may also accelerate the realization of taxable income to shareholders if such sales of investments result in gains, and may also increase transaction costs. In addition, a large redemption could result in a Fund’s current expenses being allocated over a smaller asset base, leading to an increase in the Fund’s expense ratio.
51 | Janus Investment Fund
Redemptions In-Kind
Shares normally will be redeemed for cash, although each Fund retains the right to redeem some or all of its shares in-kind under unusual circumstances, in order to protect the interests of remaining shareholders, to accommodate a request by a particular shareholder that does not adversely affect the interests of the remaining shareholders, or in connection with the liquidation of a fund, by delivery of securities selected from its assets at its discretion. However, each Fund is required to redeem shares solely for cash up to the lesser of $250,000 or 1% of the NAV of that Fund during any 90-day period for any one shareholder. Should redemptions by any shareholder exceed such limitation, a Fund will have the option of redeeming the excess in cash or in-kind. In-kind payment means payment will be made in portfolio securities rather than cash. If this occurs, the redeeming shareholder might incur brokerage or other transaction costs to convert the securities to cash, whereas such costs are borne by the Fund for cash redemptions.
While a Fund may pay redemptions in-kind, a Fund may instead choose to raise cash to meet redemption requests through the sale of fund securities or permissible borrowings. If a Fund is forced to sell securities at an unfavorable time and/or under unfavorable conditions, such sales may adversely affect the Fund’s NAV and may increase brokerage costs.
Systematic Withdrawal Plan
Class A Shares and Class C Shares
You may arrange for periodic redemptions of Class A Shares or Class C Shares by authorizing your financial intermediary to redeem a specified amount from your account on a day or days you specify. Any resulting CDSC may be waived through financial intermediaries that have entered into an agreement with Janus Distributors. The maximum annual rate at which shares subject to a CDSC may be redeemed, pursuant to a systematic withdrawal plan, without paying a CDSC, is 12% of the net asset value of the account. Certain other terms and minimums may apply. Not all financial intermediaries offer this plan. Contact your financial intermediary for details.
Class S Shares, Class I Shares, Class N Shares, and Class T Shares
You may arrange for periodic redemptions by authorizing your financial intermediary (or a Janus representative, if you hold Class I Shares directly with a Fund) to redeem a specified amount from your account on a day or days you specify. Not all financial intermediaries offer this plan. Contact your financial intermediary or a Janus representative for details.
Contingent Deferred Sales Charge
Class A Shares and Class C Shares
A 1.00% CDSC may be deducted with respect to Class A Shares purchased without an initial sales charge if redeemed within 12 months of purchase, unless any of the CDSC waivers listed apply. A 1.00% CDSC will be deducted with respect to Class C Shares redeemed within 12 months of purchase, unless a CDSC waiver applies. The CDSC will be based on the lower of the original purchase price or the value of the redemption of the Class A Shares or Class C Shares redeemed, as applicable.
CDSC Waivers
There are certain cases in which you may be exempt from a CDSC charged to Class A Shares and Class C Shares. Among others, these include:
• | Upon the death or disability of an account owner; |
• | Retirement plans and certain other accounts held through a financial intermediary that has entered into an agreement with Janus Distributors to waive CDSCs for such accounts; |
• | Retirement plan shareholders taking required minimum distributions; |
• | The redemption of Class A Shares or Class C Shares acquired through reinvestment of Fund dividends or distributions; |
• | The portion of the redemption representing appreciation as a result of an increase in NAV above the total amount of payments for Class A Shares or Class C Shares during the period during which the CDSC applied; or |
• | If a Fund chooses to liquidate or involuntarily redeem shares in your account. |
To keep the CDSC as low as possible, Class A Shares or Class C Shares not subject to any CDSC will be redeemed first, followed by shares held longest.
52 | Janus Investment Fund
Reinstatement Privilege
After you have redeemed Class A Shares, you have a one-time right to reinvest the proceeds into Class A Shares of the same or another fund within 90 days of the redemption date at the current NAV (without an initial sales charge). You will not be reimbursed for any CDSC paid on your redemption of Class A Shares.
Excessive Trading Policies and Procedures
The Trustees have adopted policies and procedures with respect to short-term and excessive trading of Fund shares (“excessive trading”). Each Fund is intended for long-term investment purposes only, and the Funds will take reasonable steps to attempt to detect and deter short-term and excessive trading. Transactions placed in violation of the Funds’ exchange limits or excessive trading policies may be cancelled or revoked by a Fund by the next business day following receipt by the Fund. The trading history of accounts determined to be under common ownership or control within any of the Janus funds may be considered in enforcing these policies and procedures. As described below, however, the Funds may not be able to identify all instances of excessive trading or completely eliminate the possibility of excessive trading. In particular, it may be difficult to identify excessive trading in certain omnibus accounts and other accounts traded through intermediaries. By their nature, omnibus accounts, in which purchases and redemptions of the Funds’ shares by multiple investors are aggregated by the intermediary and presented to the Funds on a net basis, may effectively conceal the identity of individual investors and their transactions from the Funds and their agents. This makes the elimination of excessive trading in the accounts impractical without the assistance of the intermediary.
The Funds attempt to deter excessive trading through at least the following methods:
• | exchange limitations as described under “Exchanges;” |
• | trade monitoring; and |
• | fair valuation of securities as described under “Pricing of Fund Shares.” |
Generally, a purchase and redemption of Shares from the same Fund (i.e., “round trip”) within 90 calendar days may result in enforcement of a Fund’s excessive trading policies and procedures with respect to future purchase orders, provided that each Fund reserves the right to reject any purchase request as explained above.
The Funds monitor for patterns of shareholder frequent trading and may suspend or permanently terminate the exchange privilege of any investor who makes more than one round trip in a Fund over a 90-day period, and may bar future purchases into the Fund and any of the other Janus funds by such investor. The Funds’ excessive trading policies generally do not apply to (i) a money market fund, although money market funds at all times reserve the right to reject any purchase request (including exchange purchases) for any reason without prior notice; (ii) transactions in the Janus funds by a Janus “fund of funds,” which is a fund that primarily invests in other Janus mutual funds; and (iii) identifiable transactions by certain funds of funds and asset allocation programs to realign portfolio investments with existing target allocations.
The Funds’ Trustees may approve from time to time a redemption fee to be imposed by any Janus fund, subject to 60 days’ notice to shareholders of that fund.
Investors who place transactions through the same financial intermediary on an omnibus basis may be deemed part of a group for the purpose of the Funds’ excessive trading policies and procedures and may be rejected in whole or in part by a Fund. The Funds, however, cannot always identify or reasonably detect excessive trading that may be facilitated by financial intermediaries or made difficult to identify through the use of omnibus accounts by those intermediaries that transmit purchase, exchange, and redemption orders to the Funds, and thus the Funds may have difficulty curtailing such activity. Transactions accepted by a financial intermediary in violation of the Funds’ excessive trading policies may be cancelled or revoked by a Fund by the next business day following receipt by that Fund.
In an attempt to detect and deter excessive trading in omnibus accounts, the Funds or their agents may require intermediaries to impose restrictions on the trading activity of accounts traded through those intermediaries. Such restrictions may include, but are not limited to, requiring that trades be placed by U.S. mail, prohibiting future purchases by investors who have recently redeemed Fund shares, requiring intermediaries to report information about customers who purchase and redeem large amounts, and similar restrictions. The Funds’ ability to impose such restrictions with respect to accounts traded through particular intermediaries may vary depending on the systems’ capabilities, applicable contractual and legal restrictions, and cooperation of those intermediaries.

Certain transactions in Fund shares, such as periodic rebalancing through intermediaries (no more frequently than every 60 days) or those which are made pursuant to systematic purchase, exchange, or redemption programs generally do not raise excessive trading concerns and normally do not require application of the Funds’ methods to detect and deter excessive trading.
Each Fund also reserves the right to reject any purchase request (including exchange purchases) by any investor or group of investors for any reason without prior notice, including, in particular, if the trading activity in the account(s) is deemed to be disruptive to a Fund. For example, a Fund may refuse a purchase order if the Fund’s investment personnel believe they would be unable to invest the money effectively in accordance with the Fund’s investment policies or the Fund would otherwise be adversely affected due to the size of the transaction, frequency of trading, or other factors.
The Funds’ policies and procedures regarding excessive trading may be modified at any time by the Funds’ Trustees.
Excessive Trading Risks
Excessive trading may present risks to a Fund’s long-term shareholders. Excessive trading into and out of a Fund may disrupt portfolio investment strategies, may create taxable gains to remaining Fund shareholders, and may increase Fund expenses, all of which may negatively impact investment returns for all remaining shareholders, including long-term shareholders.
Funds that invest in foreign securities may be at a greater risk for excessive trading. Investors may attempt to take advantage of anticipated price movements in securities held by a fund based on events occurring after the close of a foreign market that may not be reflected in the fund’s NAV (referred to as “price arbitrage”). Such arbitrage opportunities may also arise in funds which do not invest in foreign securities, for example, when trading in a security held by a fund is halted and does not resume prior to the time the fund calculates its NAV (referred to as “stale pricing”). Funds that hold thinly-traded securities, such as certain small-capitalization securities, may be subject to attempted use of arbitrage techniques. To the extent that a Fund’s valuation of a security differs from the security’s market value, short-term arbitrage traders may dilute the NAV of a Fund, which negatively impacts long-term shareholders. Although the Funds have adopted valuation policies and procedures intended to reduce the Funds’ exposure to price arbitrage, stale pricing, and other potential pricing inefficiencies, under such circumstances there is potential for short-term arbitrage trades to dilute the value of Fund shares.
Although the Funds take steps to detect and deter excessive trading pursuant to the policies and procedures described in this Prospectus and approved by the Trustees, there is no assurance that these policies and procedures will be effective in limiting excessive trading in all circumstances. For example, the Funds may be unable to completely eliminate the possibility of excessive trading in certain omnibus accounts and other accounts traded through intermediaries. Omnibus accounts may effectively conceal the identity of individual investors and their transactions from the Funds and their agents. This makes the Funds’ identification of excessive trading transactions in the Funds through an omnibus account difficult and makes the elimination of excessive trading in the account impractical without the assistance of the intermediary. Although the Funds encourage intermediaries to take necessary actions to detect and deter excessive trading, some intermediaries may be unable or unwilling to do so, and accordingly, the Funds cannot eliminate completely the possibility of excessive trading.
Shareholders that invest through an omnibus account should be aware that they may be subject to the policies and procedures of their financial intermediary with respect to excessive trading in the Funds.
AVAILABILITY OF PORTFOLIO HOLDINGS INFORMATION
The Mutual Fund Holdings Disclosure Policies and Procedures adopted by Janus Capital and all mutual funds managed within the Janus fund complex are designed to be in the best interests of the funds and to protect the confidentiality of the funds’ portfolio holdings. The following describes policies and procedures with respect to disclosure of portfolio holdings.
• | Full Holdings. Each Fund is required to disclose its complete holdings in the quarterly holdings report on Form N-Q within 60 days of the end of the first and third fiscal quarters, and in the annual report and semiannual report to Fund shareholders. These reports (i) are available on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov; (ii) may be reviewed and copied at the SEC’s Public Reference Room in Washington, D.C. (information on the Public Reference Room may be obtained by calling 1-800-SEC-0330); and (iii) are available without charge, upon request, by calling a Janus representative at 1-800-525-0020 (toll free). Portfolio holdings (excluding derivatives, short positions, and other investment positions) consisting of at least the names of the holdings are generally available on a calendar quarter-end basis with a 60-day lag. Holdings are generally posted approximately two business days thereafter under Full Holdings for each Fund at janus.com/info. |
54 | Janus Investment Fund
Each Fund may provide, upon request, historical full holdings at any time subject to a written confidentiality agreement.
• | Top Holdings. Each Fund’s top portfolio holdings, consisting of security names only in alphabetical order and aggregate percentage of a Fund’s total portfolio, are available monthly with a 15-day lag and on a calendar quarter-end basis with a 15-day lag. |
• | Other Information. Each Fund may occasionally provide security breakdowns (e.g., industry, sector, regional, market capitalization, and asset allocation) and specific portfolio level performance attribution information and statistics monthly with a 15-day lag and on a calendar quarter-end basis with a 15-day lag. |
Full portfolio holdings will remain available on the Janus websites at least until a Form N-CSR or Form N-Q is filed with the SEC for the period that includes the date as of which the website information is current. Funds disclose their short positions, if applicable, only to the extent required in regulatory reports. Janus Capital may exclude from publication on its websites all or any portion of portfolio holdings or change the time periods of disclosure as deemed necessary to protect the interests of the Janus funds. Under extraordinary circumstances, exceptions to the Mutual Fund Holdings Disclosure Policies and Procedures may be made by Janus Capital’s Chief Investment Officer(s) or their delegates. All exceptions shall be preapproved by the Chief Compliance Officer or his designee. Such exceptions may be made without prior notice to shareholders. A summary of the Funds’ portfolio holdings disclosure policies and procedures, which includes a discussion of any exceptions, is contained in the Funds’ SAI.
Statements and Reports
Your financial intermediary or plan sponsor (or Janus, if you hold Class I Shares directly with a Fund) is responsible for sending you periodic statements of all transactions, along with trade confirmations and tax reporting, as required by applicable law.
Your financial intermediary or plan sponsor (or Janus, if you hold Class I Shares directly with a Fund) is responsible for providing annual and semiannual reports, including the financial statements of the Funds that you have authorized for investment. These reports show each Fund’s investments and the market value of such investments, as well as other information about each Fund and its operations. Please contact your financial intermediary or plan sponsor (or Janus) to obtain these reports. The Funds’ fiscal year ends June 30.
Lost (Unclaimed/Abandoned) Accounts
It is important to maintain a correct address for each shareholder. An incorrect address may cause a shareholder’s account statements and other mailings to be returned as undeliverable. Based upon statutory requirements for returned mail, your financial intermediary or plan sponsor (or Janus, if you hold Class I Shares directly with a Fund) is required to attempt to locate the shareholder or rightful owner of the account. If the financial intermediary or plan sponsor (or Janus) is unable to locate the shareholder, then the financial intermediary or plan sponsor (or Janus) is legally obligated to deem the property “unclaimed” or “abandoned,” and subsequently escheat (or transfer) unclaimed property (including shares of a mutual fund) to the appropriate state’s unclaimed property administrator in accordance with statutory requirements. Further, your mutual fund account may be deemed “unclaimed” or “abandoned,” and subsequently transferred to your state of residence if no activity (as defined by that state) occurs within your account during the time frame specified in your state’s unclaimed property laws. The shareholder’s last known address of record determines which state has jurisdiction. Interest or income is not earned on redemption or distribution check(s) sent to you during the time the check(s) remained uncashed.

The financial highlights tables are intended to help you understand the Funds’ financial performance for each fiscal period shown. Items “Net asset value, beginning of period” through “Net asset value, end of period” reflect financial results for a single Fund Share. The gross expense ratio reflects expenses prior to any expense offset arrangement and waivers (reimbursements), if applicable. The net expense ratio reflects expenses after any expense offset arrangement and waivers (reimbursements), if applicable. The information for the fiscal periods shown has been audited by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, whose report, along with the Funds’ financial statements, is included in the Annual Report, which is available upon request, and incorporated by reference into the SAI.
The total returns in the tables represent the rate that an investor would have earned (or lost) on an investment in the Shares of the Funds (assuming reinvestment of all dividends and distributions).

This glossary provides a more detailed description of some of the types of securities, investment strategies, and other instruments in which the Funds may invest, as well as some general investment terms. The Funds may invest in these instruments to the extent permitted by their investment objectives and policies. The Funds are not limited by this discussion and may invest in any other types of instruments not precluded by the policies discussed elsewhere in this Prospectus.
EQUITY AND DEBT SECURITIES
Average-Weighted Effective Maturity is a measure of a bond’s maturity. The stated maturity of a bond is the date when the issuer must repay the bond’s entire principal value to an investor. Some types of bonds may also have an “effective maturity” that is shorter than the stated date due to prepayment or call provisions. Securities without prepayment or call provisions generally have an effective maturity equal to their stated maturity. Average-weighted effective maturity is calculated by averaging the effective maturity of bonds held by a Fund with each effective maturity “weighted” according to the percentage of net assets that it represents.
Bank loans include institutionally-traded floating and fixed-rate debt securities generally acquired as a participation interest in or assignment of a loan originated by a lender or financial institution. Assignments and participations involve credit, interest rate, and liquidity risk. Interest rates on floating rate securities adjust with interest rate changes and/or issuer credit quality. If a Fund purchases a participation interest, it may only be able to enforce its rights through the lender and may assume the credit risk of both the borrower and the lender. There are also risks involved in purchasing assignments. If a loan is foreclosed, a Fund may become part owner of any collateral securing the loan and may bear the costs and liabilities associated with owning and disposing of any collateral. The Fund could be held liable as a co-lender. In addition, there is no assurance that the liquidation of any collateral from a secured loan would satisfy a borrower’s obligations or that any collateral could be liquidated. A Fund may have difficulty trading assignments and participations to third parties or selling such securities in secondary markets, which in turn may affect the Fund’s NAV.
Bonds are debt securities issued by a company, municipality, government, or government agency. The issuer of a bond is required to pay the holder the amount of the loan (or par value of the bond) at a specified maturity and to make scheduled interest payments.
Certificates of Participation (“COPs”) are certificates representing an interest in a pool of securities. Holders are entitled to a proportionate interest in the underlying securities. Municipal lease obligations are often sold in the form of COPs. Refer to “Municipal lease obligations” below.
Commercial paper is a short-term debt obligation with a maturity ranging from 1 to 270 days issued by banks, corporations, and other borrowers to investors seeking to invest idle cash. A Fund may purchase commercial paper issued in private placements under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”).
Common stocks are equity securities representing shares of ownership in a company and usually carry voting rights and earn dividends. Unlike preferred stock, dividends on common stock are not fixed but are declared at the discretion of the issuer’s board of directors.
Convertible securities are preferred stocks or bonds that pay a fixed dividend or interest payment and are convertible into common stock at a specified price or conversion ratio.
Debt securities are securities representing money borrowed that must be repaid at a later date. Such securities have specific maturities and usually a specific rate of interest or an original purchase discount.
Depositary receipts are receipts for shares of a foreign-based corporation that entitle the holder to dividends and capital gains on the underlying security. Receipts include those issued by domestic banks (American Depositary Receipts), foreign banks (Global or European Depositary Receipts), and broker-dealers (depositary shares).
Duration is the time it will take investors to recoup their investment in a bond. Unlike average maturity, duration reflects both principal and interest payments. Generally, the higher the coupon rate on a bond, the lower its duration will be. The duration of a bond portfolio is calculated by averaging the duration of bonds held by a Fund with each duration “weighted” according to the percentage of net assets that it represents. Because duration accounts for interest payments, a Fund’s duration is usually shorter than its average maturity.

Equity securities generally include domestic and foreign common stocks; preferred stocks; securities convertible into common stocks or preferred stocks; warrants to purchase common or preferred stocks; and other securities with equity characteristics.
Exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”) are index-based investment companies which hold substantially all of their assets in securities with equity characteristics. As a shareholder of another investment company, a Fund would bear its pro rata portion of the other investment company’s expenses, including advisory fees, in addition to the expenses the Fund bears directly in connection with its own operations.
Fixed-income securities are securities that pay a specified rate of return. The term generally includes short- and long-term government, corporate, and municipal obligations that pay a specified rate of interest, dividends, or coupons for a specified period of time. Coupon and dividend rates may be fixed for the life of the issue or, in the case of adjustable and floating rate securities, for a shorter period.
High-yield/high-risk bonds are bonds that are rated below investment grade by the primary rating agencies (i.e., BB+ or lower by Standard & Poor’s and Fitch, or Ba or lower by Moody’s). Other terms commonly used to describe such bonds include “lower rated bonds,” “non-investment grade bonds,” and “junk bonds.”
Industrial development bonds are revenue bonds that are issued by a public authority but which may be backed only by the credit and security of a private issuer and may involve greater credit risk. Refer to “Municipal securities” below.
Mortgage- and asset-backed securities are shares in a pool of mortgages or other debt instruments. These securities are generally pass-through securities, which means that principal and interest payments on the underlying securities (less servicing fees) are passed through to shareholders on a pro rata basis. These securities involve prepayment risk, which is the risk that the underlying mortgages or other debt may be refinanced or paid off prior to their maturities during periods of declining interest rates. In that case, a Fund may have to reinvest the proceeds from the securities at a lower rate. Potential market gains on a security subject to prepayment risk may be more limited than potential market gains on a comparable security that is not subject to prepayment risk.
Mortgage dollar rolls are transactions in which a Fund sells a mortgage-related security, such as a security issued by Government National Mortgage Association, to a dealer and simultaneously agrees to purchase a similar security (but not the same security) in the future at a predetermined price. A “dollar roll” can be viewed as a collateralized borrowing in which a Fund pledges a mortgage-related security to a dealer to obtain cash.
Municipal lease obligations are revenue bonds backed by leases or installment purchase contracts for property or equipment. Lease obligations may not be backed by the issuing municipality’s credit and may involve risks not normally associated with general obligation bonds and other revenue bonds. For example, their interest may become taxable if the lease is assigned and the holders may incur losses if the issuer does not appropriate funds for the lease payments on an annual basis, which may result in termination of the lease and possible default.
Municipal securities are bonds or notes issued by a U.S. state or political subdivision. A municipal security may be a general obligation backed by the full faith and credit (i.e., the borrowing and taxing power) of a municipality or a revenue obligation paid out of the revenues of a designated project, facility, or revenue source.
Pass-through securities are shares or certificates of interest in a pool of debt obligations that have been repackaged by an intermediary, such as a bank or broker-dealer.
Passive foreign investment companies (“PFICs”) are any foreign corporations which generate certain amounts of passive income or hold certain amounts of assets for the production of passive income. Passive income includes dividends, interest, royalties, rents, and annuities. To avoid taxes and interest that a Fund must pay if these investments are profitable, the Fund may make various elections permitted by the tax laws. These elections could require that a Fund recognize taxable income, which in turn must be distributed, before the securities are sold and before cash is received to pay the distributions.
Pay-in-kind bonds are debt securities that normally give the issuer an option to pay cash at a coupon payment date or give the holder of the security a similar bond with the same coupon rate and a face value equal to the amount of the coupon payment that would have been made.
Preferred stocks are equity securities that generally pay dividends at a specified rate and have preference over common stock in the payment of dividends and liquidation. Preferred stock generally does not carry voting rights.

Real estate investment trust (“REIT”) is an investment trust that operates through the pooled capital of many investors who buy its shares. Investments are in direct ownership of either income property or mortgage loans.
Rule 144A securities are securities that are not registered for sale to the general public under the 1933 Act, but that may be resold to certain institutional investors.
Standby commitment is a right to sell a specified underlying security or securities within a specified period of time and at an exercise price equal to the amortized cost of the underlying security or securities plus accrued interest, if any, at the time of exercise, that may be sold, transferred, or assigned only with the underlying security or securities. A standby commitment entitles the holder to receive same day settlement, and will be considered to be from the party to whom the investment company will look for payment of the exercise price.
Step coupon bonds are high-quality issues with above-market interest rates and a coupon that increases over the life of the bond. They may pay monthly, semiannual, or annual interest payments. On the date of each coupon payment, the issuer decides whether to call the bond at par, or whether to extend it until the next payment date at the new coupon rate.
Strip bonds are debt securities that are stripped of their interest (usually by a financial intermediary) after the securities are issued. The market value of these securities generally fluctuates more in response to changes in interest rates than interest-paying securities of comparable maturity.
Tender option bonds are relatively long-term bonds that are coupled with the option to tender the securities to a bank, broker-dealer, or other financial institution at periodic intervals and receive the face value of the bond. This investment structure is commonly used as a means of enhancing a security’s liquidity.
U.S. Government securities include direct obligations of the U.S. Government that are supported by its full faith and credit. Treasury bills have initial maturities of less than one year, Treasury notes have initial maturities of one to ten years, and Treasury bonds may be issued with any maturity but generally have maturities of at least ten years. U.S. Government securities also include indirect obligations of the U.S. Government that are issued by federal agencies and government sponsored entities. Unlike Treasury securities, agency securities generally are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government. Some agency securities are supported by the right of the issuer to borrow from the Treasury, others are supported by the discretionary authority of the U.S. Government to purchase the agency’s obligations, and others are supported only by the credit of the sponsoring agency.
Variable and floating rate securities have variable or floating rates of interest and, under certain limited circumstances, may have varying principal amounts. Variable and floating rate securities pay interest at rates that are adjusted periodically according to a specified formula, usually with reference to some interest rate index or market interest rate (the “underlying index”). The floating rate tends to decrease the security’s price sensitivity to changes in interest rates.
Warrants are securities, typically issued with preferred stock or bonds, which give the holder the right to buy a proportionate amount of common stock at a specified price. The specified price is usually higher than the market price at the time of issuance of the warrant. The right may last for a period of years or indefinitely.
Zero coupon bonds are debt securities that do not pay regular interest at regular intervals, but are issued at a discount from face value. The discount approximates the total amount of interest the security will accrue from the date of issuance to maturity. The market value of these securities generally fluctuates more in response to changes in interest rates than interest-paying securities.
FUTURES, OPTIONS, AND OTHER DERIVATIVES
Credit default swaps are a specific kind of counterparty agreement that allows the transfer of third party credit risk from one party to the other. One party in the swap is a lender and faces credit risk from a third party, and the counterparty in the credit default swap agrees to insure this risk in exchange for regular periodic payments.
Derivatives are financial instruments whose performance is derived from the performance of another asset (stock, bond, commodity, currency, interest rate or market index). Types of derivatives can include, but are not limited to options, forward contracts, swaps, and futures contracts.
Equity-linked structured notes are derivative securities which are specially designed to combine the characteristics of one or more underlying securities and their equity derivatives in a single note form. The return and/or yield or income component
78 | Janus Investment Fund
may be based on the performance of the underlying equity securities, an equity index, and/or option positions. Equity-linked structured notes are typically offered in limited transactions by financial institutions in either registered or non-registered form. An investment in equity-linked notes creates exposure to the credit risk of the issuing financial institution, as well as to the market risk of the underlying securities. There is no guaranteed return of principal with these securities, and the appreciation potential of these securities may be limited by a maximum payment or call right. In certain cases, equity-linked notes may be more volatile and less liquid than less complex securities or other types of fixed-income securities. Such securities may exhibit price behavior that does not correlate with other fixed-income securities.
Equity swaps involve the exchange by two parties of future cash flow (e.g., one cash flow based on a referenced interest rate and the other based on the performance of stock or a stock index).
Forward contracts are contracts to purchase or sell a specified amount of a financial instrument for an agreed upon price at a specified time. Forward contracts are not currently exchange-traded and are typically negotiated on an individual basis. A Fund may enter into forward currency contracts for investment purposes or to hedge against declines in the value of securities denominated in, or whose value is tied to, a currency other than the U.S. dollar or to reduce the impact of currency appreciation on purchases of such securities. It may also enter into forward contracts to purchase or sell securities or other financial indices.
Futures contracts are contracts that obligate the buyer to receive and the seller to deliver an instrument or money at a specified price on a specified date. A Fund may buy and sell futures contracts on foreign currencies, securities, and financial indices including indices of U.S. Government, foreign government, equity, or fixed-income securities. A Fund may also buy options on futures contracts. An option on a futures contract gives the buyer the right, but not the obligation, to buy or sell a futures contract at a specified price on or before a specified date. Futures contracts and options on futures are standardized and traded on designated exchanges.
Indexed/structured securities are typically short- to intermediate-term debt securities whose value at maturity or interest rate is linked to currencies, interest rates, equity securities, indices, commodity prices, or other financial indicators. Such securities may be positively or negatively indexed (e.g., their value may increase or decrease if the reference index or instrument appreciates). Indexed/structured securities may have return characteristics similar to direct investments in the underlying instruments and may be more volatile than the underlying instruments. A Fund bears the market risk of an investment in the underlying instruments, as well as the credit risk of the issuer.
Interest rate swaps involve the exchange by two parties of their respective commitments to pay or receive interest (e.g., an exchange of floating rate payments for fixed rate payments).
Inverse floaters are debt instruments whose interest rate bears an inverse relationship to the interest rate on another instrument or index. For example, upon reset, the interest rate payable on the inverse floater may go down when the underlying index has risen. Certain inverse floaters may have an interest rate reset mechanism that multiplies the effects of change in the underlying index. Such mechanism may increase the volatility of the security’s market value.
Options are the right, but not the obligation, to buy or sell a specified amount of securities or other assets on or before a fixed date at a predetermined price. A Fund may purchase and write put and call options on securities, securities indices, and foreign currencies. A Fund may purchase or write such options individually or in combination.
Participatory notes are derivative securities which are linked to the performance of an underlying Indian security and which allow investors to gain market exposure to Indian securities without trading directly in the local Indian market.
Total return swaps involve an exchange by two parties in which one party makes payments based on a set rate, either fixed or variable, while the other party makes payments based on the return of an underlying asset, which includes both the income it generates and any capital gains over the payment period.
OTHER INVESTMENTS, STRATEGIES, AND/OR TECHNIQUES
Cash sweep program is an arrangement in which a Fund’s uninvested cash balance is used to purchase shares of affiliated or non-affiliated money market funds or cash management pooled investment vehicles at the end of each day.
Diversification is a classification given to a fund under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). Funds are classified as either “diversified” or “nondiversified.” To be classified as “diversified” under the 1940 Act, a fund
79 | Janus Investment Fund
may not, with respect to 75% of its total assets, invest more than 5% of its total assets in any issuer and may not own more than 10% of the outstanding voting securities of an issuer. A fund that is classified as “nondiversified” under the 1940 Act, on the other hand, has the flexibility to take larger positions in a smaller number of issuers than a fund that is classified as “diversified.” However, because the appreciation or depreciation of a single security may have a greater impact on the net asset value of a fund which is classified as nondiversified, its share price can be expected to fluctuate more than a comparable fund which is classified as diversified.
Industry concentration for purposes under the 1940 Act is the investment of 25% or more of a Fund’s total assets in an industry or group of industries.
Leverage occurs when a Fund increases its assets available for investment using reverse repurchase agreements or other similar transactions. In addition, other investment techniques, such as short sales and certain derivative transactions, can create a leveraging effect. Engaging in transactions using leverage or those having a leveraging effect subjects a Fund to certain risks. Leverage can magnify the effect of any gains or losses, causing a Fund to be more volatile than if it had not been leveraged. Certain commodity-linked derivative investments may subject a Fund to leveraged market exposure to commodities. In addition, a Fund’s assets that are used as collateral to secure short sale transactions may decrease in value while the short positions are outstanding, which may force the Fund to use its other assets to increase collateral. There is no assurance that a leveraging strategy will be successful.
Market capitalization is the most commonly used measure of the size and value of a company. It is computed by multiplying the current market price of a share of the company’s stock by the total number of its shares outstanding. Market capitalization is an important investment criterion for certain funds, while others do not emphasize investments in companies of any particular size.
Net long is a term used to describe when a Fund’s assets committed to long positions exceed those committed to short positions.
Repurchase agreements involve the purchase of a security by a Fund and a simultaneous agreement by the seller (generally a bank or dealer) to repurchase the security from the Fund at a specified date or upon demand. This technique offers a method of earning income on idle cash. These securities involve the risk that the seller will fail to repurchase the security, as agreed. In that case, a Fund will bear the risk of market value fluctuations until the security can be sold and may encounter delays and incur costs in liquidating the security.
Reverse repurchase agreements involve the sale of a security by a Fund to another party (generally a bank or dealer) in return for cash and an agreement by the Fund to buy the security back at a specified price and time. This technique will be used primarily to provide cash to satisfy unusually high redemption requests, or for other temporary or emergency purposes.
Short sales in which a Fund may engage may be either “short sales against the box” or other short sales. Short sales against the box involve selling short a security that a Fund owns, or the Fund has the right to obtain the amount of the security sold short at a specified date in the future. A Fund may also enter into a short sale to hedge against anticipated declines in the market price of a security or to reduce portfolio volatility. If the value of a security sold short increases prior to the scheduled delivery date, the Fund loses the opportunity to participate in the gain. For short sales, the Fund will incur a loss if the value of a security increases during this period because it will be paying more for the security than it has received from the purchaser in the short sale. If the price declines during this period, a Fund will realize a short-term capital gain. Although a Fund’s potential for gain as a result of a short sale is limited to the price at which it sold the security short less the cost of borrowing the security, its potential for loss is theoretically unlimited because there is no limit to the cost of replacing the borrowed security.
When-issued, delayed delivery, and forward commitment transactions generally involve the purchase of a security with payment and delivery at some time in the future – i.e., beyond normal settlement. A Fund does not earn interest on such securities until settlement and bears the risk of market value fluctuations in between the purchase and settlement dates. New issues of stocks and bonds, private placements, and U.S. Government securities may be sold in this manner.

INVESTMENT POLICIES AND RESTRICTIONS APPLICABLE TO ALL FUNDS
The Funds are subject to certain fundamental policies and restrictions that may not be changed without shareholder approval. Shareholder approval means approval by the lesser of: (i) more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities of the Trust (or a particular Fund or particular class of shares if a matter affects just that Fund or that class of shares) or (ii) 67% or more of the voting securities present at a meeting if the holders of more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities of the Trust (or a particular Fund or class of shares) are present or represented by proxy. The following policies are fundamental policies of the Funds. Unless otherwise noted, each of these policies applies to each Fund, except policy (6), which applies as noted in that policy.
(1) With respect to 75% of its total assets, each of Janus Flexible Bond Fund, Janus Global Bond Fund, Janus High-Yield Fund, Janus Multi-Sector Income Fund, Janus Real Return Fund, Janus Short-Term Bond Fund, INTECH Global Dividend Fund, INTECH International Fund, INTECH U.S. Core Fund, INTECH U.S. Growth Fund, INTECH U.S. Value Fund, Perkins Large Cap Value Fund, Perkins Mid Cap Value Fund, Perkins Select Value Fund, Perkins Small Cap Value Fund, and Perkins Value Plus Income Fund may not purchase securities of an issuer (other than the U.S. Government, its agencies, instrumentalities or authorities, or repurchase agreements collateralized by U.S. Government securities, and securities of other investment companies) if: (a) such purchase would, at the time, cause more than 5% of the Fund’s total assets taken at market value to be invested in the securities of such issuer or (b) such purchase would, at the time, result in more than 10% of the outstanding voting securities of such issuer being held by the Fund.
2 |
Each Fund may not:
(2) Invest 25% or more of the value of its total assets in any particular industry (other than U.S. Government securities).
(3) Purchase or sell physical commodities unless acquired as a result of ownership of securities or other instruments (but this limitation shall not prevent a Fund from purchasing or selling foreign currencies, options, futures, swaps, forward contracts, or other derivative instruments, or from investing in securities or other instruments backed by physical commodities).
(4) Lend any security or make any other loan if, as a result, more than one-third of a Fund’s total assets would be lent to other parties (but this limitation does not apply to investments in repurchase agreements, commercial paper, debt securities, or loans, including assignments and participation interests).
(5) Act as an underwriter of securities issued by others, except to the extent that a Fund may be deemed an underwriter in connection with the disposition of its portfolio securities.
(6) Borrow money except that a Fund may borrow money for temporary or emergency purposes (not for leveraging or investment). Borrowings from banks will not, in any event, exceed one-third of the value of a Fund’s total assets (including the amount borrowed). This policy shall not prohibit short sales transactions, or futures, options, swaps, or forward transactions. The Funds may not issue “senior securities” in contravention of the 1940 Act. In the case of Janus Real Return Fund, this policy shall not prohibit short sales transactions, or futures, options, swaps, repurchase transactions (including reverse repurchase agreements), or forward transactions.
(7) Invest directly in real estate or interests in real estate; however, a Fund may own debt or equity securities issued by companies engaged in those businesses.
As a fundamental policy, a Fund may, notwithstanding any other investment policy or limitation (whether or not fundamental), invest all of its assets in the securities of a single open-end management investment company with substantially the same fundamental investment objectives, policies, and limitations as such Fund.
The Board of Trustees (“Trustees”) has adopted additional investment restrictions for the Funds. These restrictions are operating policies of the Funds and may be changed by the Trustees without shareholder approval. The additional restrictions adopted by the Trustees to date include the following:
(1) If a Fund is an approved underlying fund in a Janus fund of funds, the Fund may not acquire the securities of other investment companies or registered unit investment trusts in excess of the limits of Section 12(d)(1) of the 1940 Act in reliance on subparagraph (F) or subparagraph (G) of Section 12(d)(1).
(2) The Funds may sell securities short if they own or have the right to obtain securities equivalent in kind and amount to the securities sold short without the payment of any additional consideration therefor (“short sales against the box”). In addition, each Fund may engage in short sales other than against the box, which involve selling a security that a Fund borrows and does not own. The Trustees may impose limits on a Fund’s investments in short sales, as described in the Fund’s Prospectuses. Transactions in futures, options, swaps, and forward contracts not involving short sales are not deemed to constitute selling securities short.
(3) The Funds do not intend to purchase securities on margin, except that the Funds may obtain such short-term credits as are necessary for the clearance of transactions, and provided that margin payments and other deposits in connection with transactions involving short sales, futures, options, swaps, forward contracts, and other permitted investment techniques shall not be deemed to constitute purchasing securities on margin.
(4) A Fund may not mortgage or pledge any securities owned or held by such Fund in amounts that exceed, in the aggregate, 15% of that Fund’s net asset value (“NAV”), provided that this limitation does not apply to: reverse repurchase agreements; deposits of assets to margin; guarantee positions in futures, options, swaps, or forward contracts; or the segregation of assets in connection with such contracts.
(5) The Funds do not currently intend to purchase any security or enter into a repurchase agreement if, as a result, more than 15% of their respective net assets would be invested in repurchase agreements not entitling the holder to payment of principal and interest within seven days and in securities that are illiquid by virtue of legal or contractual restrictions on resale or the absence of a readily available market. The Trustees, or the Funds’ investment adviser acting pursuant to authority delegated by the Trustees, may determine that a readily available market exists for: securities eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“Rule 144A Securities”), or any successor to such rule;
3 |
Section 4(2) commercial paper; and municipal lease obligations. Accordingly, such securities may not be subject to the foregoing limitation. Certain securities previously deemed liquid may become illiquid in any subsequent assessment of liquidity factors affecting the security.
(6) The Funds may not invest in companies for the purpose of exercising control of management.
Under the terms of an exemptive order received from the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), each Fund may borrow money from or lend money to other funds that permit such transactions and for which Janus Capital or one of its affiliates serves as investment adviser. All such borrowing and lending will be subject to the above limits and to the limits and other conditions in such exemptive order. A Fund will borrow money through the program only when the costs are equal to or lower than the cost of bank loans. Interfund loans and borrowings normally extend overnight, but can have a maximum duration of seven days. A Fund will lend through the program only when the returns are higher than those available from other short-term instruments (such as repurchase agreements). A Fund may have to borrow from a bank at a higher interest rate if an interfund loan is called or not renewed. Any delay in repayment to a lending Fund could result in a lost investment opportunity or additional borrowing costs.
For purposes of these investment restrictions, the identification of the issuer of a municipal obligation depends on the terms and conditions of the security. When assets and revenues of a political subdivision are separate from those of the government that created the subdivision and the security is backed only by the assets and revenues of the subdivision, the subdivision is deemed to be the sole issuer. Similarly, in the case of an industrial development bond, if the bond is backed only by assets and revenues of a nongovernmental user, then the nongovernmental user would be deemed to be the sole issuer. If, however, in either case, the creating government or some other entity guarantees the security, the guarantee would be considered a separate security that would be treated as an issue of the guaranteeing entity.
For purposes of the Funds’ fundamental policy related to investments in real estate, the policy does not prohibit the purchase of securities directly or indirectly secured by real estate or interests therein, or issued by entities that invest in real estate or interests therein, such as, but not limited to, corporations, partnerships, real estate investment trusts (“REITs”), and other REIT-like entities, such as foreign entities that have REIT characteristics.
For purposes of each Fund’s policies on investing in particular industries, effective December 2013, each Fund relies primarily on industry or industry group classifications under the Global Industry Classification Standard (“GICS”) developed by MSCI with respect to equity investments and classifications published by Barclays for fixed-income investments. Funds with both equity and fixed-income components will rely on industry classifications published by Bloomberg L.P. To the extent that the above classifications are so broad that the primary economic characteristics in a single class are materially different, a Fund may further classify issuers in accordance with industry classifications consistent with relevant SEC staff interpretations. The Funds may change any source used for determining industry classifications without prior shareholder notice or approval.
INVESTMENT POLICY APPLICABLE TO JANUS SHORT-TERM BOND FUND
Janus Short-Term Bond Fund. As an operational policy, under normal circumstances, Janus Short-Term Bond Fund expects to maintain an average weighted effective maturity of three years or less. The portfolio managers may consider estimated prepayment dates or call dates of certain securities in computing the portfolio’s effective maturity.
INVESTMENT STRATEGIES AND RISKS
Diversification
Funds are classified as either “diversified” or “nondiversified.” Diversification is a way to reduce risk by investing in a broad range of stocks or other securities. To be classified as “diversified” under the 1940 Act, a fund may not, with respect to 75% of its total assets, invest more than 5% of its total assets in any issuer and may not own more than 10% of the outstanding voting securities of an issuer. A fund that is classified as “nondiversified” under the 1940 Act is not subject to the same restrictions and therefore has the ability to take larger positions in a smaller number of issuers than a fund that is classified as “diversified.” This gives a fund that is classified as nondiversified more flexibility to focus its investments in companies that the portfolio managers and/or investment personnel have identified as the most attractive for the investment objective and strategy of the fund. However, because the appreciation or depreciation of a single security may have a greater impact on the NAV of a fund which is classified as nondiversified, its share price can be expected to fluctuate more than a comparable fund which is classified as diversified. This fluctuation, if significant, may affect the performance of a fund.
4 |
Cash Position
As discussed in the Prospectuses, a Fund’s cash position may temporarily increase under various circumstances. Securities that the Funds may invest in as a means of receiving a return on idle cash include domestic or foreign currency denominated commercial paper, certificates of deposit, repurchase agreements, or other short-term debt obligations. These securities may include U.S. and foreign short-term cash instruments and cash equivalent securities. Each Fund may also invest in affiliated or non-affiliated money market funds. (Refer to “Investment Company Securities.”)
The INTECH Funds, subadvised by INTECH, normally remain as fully invested as possible and do not seek to lessen the effects of a declining market through hedging or temporary defensive positions. These Funds may use exchange-traded funds as well as futures, options, and other derivatives, to gain exposure to the stock market pending investment of cash balances or to meet liquidity needs. These Funds may also invest their cash holdings in affiliated or non-affiliated money market funds as part of a cash sweep program. Through this program, these Funds may invest in U.S. Government securities and other short-term, interest-bearing securities without regard to the Funds’ otherwise applicable percentage limits, policies, or their normal investment emphasis, when INTECH believes market, economic, or political conditions warrant a temporary defensive position.
Illiquid Investments
Each Fund may invest up to 15% of its net assets in illiquid investments (i.e., securities that are not readily marketable), including securities that are purchased in private placements. The Trustees have authorized Janus Capital to make liquidity determinations with respect to certain securities, including Rule 144A Securities, commercial paper, and municipal lease obligations purchased by the Funds. Under the guidelines established by the Trustees, Janus Capital will consider the following factors: (i) the frequency of trades and quoted prices for the security; (ii) the number of dealers willing to purchase or sell the security and the number of other potential purchasers; (iii) the willingness of dealers to undertake to make a market in the security; and (iv) the nature of the security and the nature of the marketplace trades, including the time needed to dispose of the security, the method of soliciting offers, and the mechanics of the transfer. In the case of commercial paper, Janus Capital will also consider whether the paper is traded flat or in default as to principal and interest and any ratings of the paper by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization (“NRSRO”). Investments in Rule 144A Securities could have the effect of increasing the level of a Fund’s illiquidity to the extent that qualified institutional buyers become, for a time, uninterested in purchasing such securities. Certain securities previously deemed liquid may become illiquid in any subsequent assessment of the foregoing factors or other changes affecting the security. Foreign securities that may be freely traded on or through the facilities of an offshore exchange or other established offshore securities market are not restricted under the Funds’ liquidity procedures if traded in that market. Such securities will be treated as “restricted” if traded in the United States because foreign securities are not registered for sale under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”).
If illiquid securities exceed 15% of a Fund’s net assets after the time of purchase, the Fund will take steps to reduce its holdings of illiquid securities in an orderly fashion. Because illiquid securities may not be readily marketable, the portfolio managers and/or investment personnel may not be able to dispose of them in a timely manner. As a result, the Fund may be forced to hold illiquid securities while their price depreciates. Depreciation in the price of illiquid securities may cause the NAV of a Fund to decline.
Each Fund may invest up to 5% of its total assets in venture capital investments measured at the time of an investment. A later increase or decrease in this percentage resulting from changes in values of assets will not constitute a violation of such limitation. Each Fund may make an initial investment of up to 0.5% of its total assets in any one venture capital company. A Fund may not invest in aggregate more than 1% of its total assets, measured at the time of the subsequent purchase, in any one venture capital company.
Venture capital investments are investments in new and early stage companies whose securities are not publicly traded. These investments may present significant opportunities for capital appreciation but involve a high degree of risk that can result in substantial losses. The Funds may not be able to sell such investments when the portfolio managers and/or investment personnel deem it appropriate to do so due to restrictions on their sale. In addition, the Funds may be forced to sell their venture capital investments at less than fair market value. Where venture capital investments must be registered prior to their sale, the Funds may be obligated to pay all or part of the registration expenses. Any of these situations may result in a decrease in a Fund’s NAV.

Securities Lending
Under procedures adopted by the Trustees, certain Funds may seek to earn additional income by lending securities to qualified parties (typically brokers or other financial institutions) who need to borrow securities in order to complete, among other things, certain transactions such as covering short sales, avoiding failures to deliver securities, or completing arbitrage activities. There is the risk of delay in recovering a loaned security or the risk of loss in collateral rights if the borrower fails financially. In addition, Janus Capital makes efforts to balance the benefits and risks from granting such loans. Certain Funds may participate in a securities lending program under which shares of an issuer may be on loan while that issuer is conducting a proxy solicitation. Generally, if shares of an issuer are on loan during a proxy solicitation, a Fund cannot vote the shares. The Funds, with the exception of the INTECH Funds, have discretion to pull back lent shares before proxy record dates and vote proxies if time permits. All loans will be continuously secured by collateral which may consist of cash, U.S. Government securities, domestic and foreign short-term debt instruments, letters of credit, time deposits, repurchase agreements, money market mutual funds or other money market accounts, or such other collateral as permitted by the SEC. If a Fund is unable to recover a security on loan, the Fund may use the collateral to purchase replacement securities in the market. There is a risk that the value of the collateral could decrease below the cost of the replacement security by the time the replacement investment is made, resulting in a loss to the Fund.
Upon receipt of cash collateral, Janus Capital may invest it in affiliated or non-affiliated cash management vehicles, whether registered or unregistered entities, as permitted by the 1940 Act and rules promulgated thereunder. Janus Capital currently intends to invest the cash collateral in a cash management vehicle for which Janus Capital serves as investment adviser. An investment in a cash management vehicle is generally subject to the same risks that shareholders experience when investing in similarly structured vehicles, such as the potential for significant fluctuations in assets as a result of the purchase and redemption activity of the securities lending program, a decline in the value of the collateral, and possible liquidity issues. Such risks may delay the return of the cash collateral and cause a Fund to violate its agreement to return the cash collateral to a borrower in a timely manner. As adviser to the Funds and the affiliated cash management vehicle in which the cash collateral is invested, Janus Capital has an inherent conflict of interest as a result of its fiduciary duties to both the Funds and the cash management vehicle. Additionally, Janus Capital receives an investment advisory fee of 0.05% for managing the cash management vehicle used for the securities lending program, but it may not receive a fee for managing certain other affiliated cash management vehicles in which the Funds may invest, and therefore may have an incentive to allocate preferred investment opportunities to investment vehicles for which it is receiving a fee.
Equity Securities
The Funds may invest in equity securities, which include, but are not limited to, common and preferred stocks, securities convertible or exchangeable into common stock, and warrants.
Common Stock. Common stock represents a proportionate share of the ownership of a company. Common stocks sometimes are divided into several classes, with each class having different voting rights, dividend rights, or other differences in their rights and priorities. The value of a stock is based on the market’s assessment of the current and future success of a company’s business, any income paid to stockholders, the value of the company’s assets, and general market conditions. The value of a stock may also be adversely affected by other factors such as accounting irregularities, actual or perceived weaknesses in corporate governance practices of a company’s board or management, and changes in company management. Common stock values can fluctuate dramatically over short periods.
Preferred Stock. A preferred stock represents an ownership interest in a company, but pays dividends at a specific rate and has priority over common stock in payment of dividends and liquidation claims. Preferred stock dividends are generally cumulative, noncumulative, or participating. “Cumulative” dividend provisions require all or a portion of prior unpaid dividends to be paid before dividends can be paid to the issuer’s common stock. “Participating” preferred stock may be entitled to a dividend exceeding the stated dividend in certain cases. Like debt securities, the value of a preferred stock often fluctuates more in response to changes in interest rates and the creditworthiness of the issuer, rather than in response to changes in the issuer’s profitability and business prospects. Preferred stock is subject to similar risks as common stock and debt securities.
Convertible Security. A convertible security is generally a debt obligation or preferred stock that may be converted within a specified period of time into a certain amount of common stock of the same or a different issuer. A convertible security, such as a “convertible preferred stock,” provides a fixed-income stream and the opportunity, through its conversion feature, to participate in the capital appreciation resulting from a market price advance in its underlying common stock. Like a common stock, the value of a convertible security tends to increase as the market value of the underlying stock rises, and it tends to
6 |
decrease as the market value of the underlying stock declines. As with a fixed-income security, a convertible security tends to increase in market value when interest rates decline and decrease in value when interest rates rise. Because both interest rate and market movements can influence its value, a convertible security is not as sensitive to interest rates as a similar fixed-income security, nor is it as sensitive to changes in share price as its underlying stock.
Convertible securities generally have less potential for gain or loss than common stocks. Convertible securities generally provide yields higher than the underlying common stocks, but generally lower than comparable non-convertible securities. Because of this higher yield, convertible securities generally sell at prices above their “conversion value,” which is the current market value of the stock to be received upon conversion. The difference between this conversion value and the price of convertible securities will vary over time depending on changes in the value of the underlying common stocks and interest rates.
A convertible security may also be called for redemption or conversion by the issuer after a particular date and under certain circumstances (including a specified price) established upon issue. If a convertible security held by a Fund is called for redemption or conversion, the Fund could be required to tender it for redemption, convert it into the underlying common stock, or sell it to a third party.
Synthetic convertible securities are created by combining separate securities that possess the two principal characteristics of a traditional convertible security, i.e., an income-producing security (“income-producing component”) and the right to acquire an equity security (“convertible component”). The income-producing component is achieved by investing in non-convertible, income-producing securities such as bonds, preferred stocks and money market instruments, which may be represented by derivative instruments. The convertible component is achieved by investing in securities or instruments such as warrants or options to buy common stock at a certain exercise price, or options on a stock index. Unlike a traditional convertible security, which is a single security having a single market value, a synthetic convertible security comprises two or more separate securities, each with its own market value. Therefore, the “market value” of a synthetic convertible security is the sum of the values of its income-producing component and its convertible component. For this reason, the values of a synthetic convertible security and a traditional convertible security may respond differently to market fluctuations.
More flexibility is possible in the assembly of a synthetic convertible security than in the purchase of a convertible security. Although synthetic convertible securities may be selected where the two components are issued by a single issuer, thus making the synthetic convertible security similar to the traditional convertible security, the character of a synthetic convertible security allows the combination of components representing distinct issuers. A synthetic convertible security also is a more flexible investment in that its two components may be purchased separately. For example, a Fund may purchase a warrant for inclusion in a synthetic convertible security but temporarily hold short-term investments while postponing the purchase of a corresponding bond pending development of more favorable market conditions.
A holder of a synthetic convertible security faces the risk of a decline in the price of the security or the level of the index involved in the convertible component, causing a decline in the value of the security or instrument, such as a call option or warrant, purchased to create the synthetic convertible security. Should the price of the stock fall below the exercise price and remain there throughout the exercise period, the entire amount paid for the call option or warrant would be lost. Because a synthetic convertible security includes the income-producing component as well, the holder of a synthetic convertible security also faces the risk that interest rates will rise, causing a decline in the value of the income-producing instrument.
Warrants. Warrants constitute options to purchase equity securities at a specific price and are valid for a specific period of time. They do not represent ownership of the equity securities, but only the right to buy them. Warrants have no voting rights, pay no dividends, and have no rights with respect to the assets of the corporation issuing them. Warrants differ from call options in that warrants are issued by the issuer of the security that may be purchased on their exercise, whereas call options may be issued by anyone. The prices of warrants do not necessarily move parallel to the prices of the underlying equity securities. The price usually represents a premium over the applicable market value of the common stock at the time of the warrant’s issuance. Investments in warrants involve certain risks, including the possible lack of a liquid market for the resale of the warrants, potential price fluctuations as a result of speculation or other factors, and failure of the price of the common stock to rise. The price of a warrant may be more volatile than the price of its underlying security. A warrant becomes worthless if it is not exercised within the specified time period.
Special Purpose Acquisition Companies. Certain Funds may invest in stock, warrants, and other securities of special purpose acquisition companies (“SPACs”) or similar entities that pool funds to seek potential acquisition opportunities. Unless and until an acquisition is completed, a SPAC typically invests its assets (less a portion retained to cover expenses) in U.S. Government securities, money market fund securities, and cash. If an acquisition that meets the requirements for the
7 |
SPAC is not completed within a pre-established period of time, the invested funds are returned to the SPAC’s shareholders. Because SPACs and similar entities are in essence blank check companies without an operating history or ongoing business other than seeking acquisitions, the value of a SPAC’s securities is particularly dependent on the ability of the SPAC’s management to timely identify and complete a profitable acquisition. Some SPACs may pursue acquisitions only within certain industries or regions, which may increase the volatility of their prices. To the extent the SPAC is invested in cash or similar securities while awaiting an acquisition opportunity, a Fund’s ability to meet its investment objective may be negatively impacted. In addition, SPACs, which are typically traded in the over-the-counter market, may be considered illiquid and/or be subject to restrictions on resale.
Financial Services Risk
To the extent a Fund invests a significant portion of its assets in the financial services sector, that Fund will have more exposure to the risks inherent to the financial services sector. Financial services companies may be adversely affected by changes in regulatory framework or interest rates that may negatively affect financial services businesses; exposure of a financial institution to a nondiversified or concentrated loan portfolio; exposure to financial leverage and/or investments or agreements that, under certain circumstances, may lead to losses; and the risk that a market shock or other unexpected market, economic, political, regulatory, or other event might lead to a sudden decline in the values of most or all financial services companies.
Natural Disasters and Extreme Weather Conditions
Certain areas of the world have historically been prone to and economically sensitive to environmental events such as, but not limited to, hurricanes, earthquakes, typhoons, flooding, tidal waves, tsunamis, erupting volcanoes, wildfires or droughts, tornadoes, mudslides, or other weather-related phenomena. Such disasters, and the resulting physical or economic damage, could have a severe and negative impact on a Fund’s investment portfolio and, in the longer term, could impair the ability of issuers in which the Fund invests to conduct their businesses as they would under normal conditions. Adverse weather conditions may also have a particularly significant negative effect on issuers in the agricultural sector and on insurance companies that insure against the impact of natural disasters.
Cyber Security Risk
With the increased use of the Internet to conduct business, the Funds are susceptible to operational and information security risks. In general, cyber incidents can result from deliberate attacks or unintentional events. Cyber-attacks include, but are not limited to, infection by computer viruses or other malicious software code, gaining unauthorized access to systems, networks, or devices that are used to service the Funds’ operations through “hacking” or other means for the purpose of misappropriating assets or sensitive information, corrupting data, or causing operational disruption. Cyber-attacks may also be carried out in a manner that does not require gaining unauthorized access, such as causing denial-of-service attacks on the Funds’ websites. In addition, authorized persons could inadvertently or intentionally release confidential or proprietary information stored on the Funds’ systems.
Cyber security failures or breaches by the Funds’ third party service providers (including, but not limited to, Janus Capital, custodians, transfer agents, and financial intermediaries), or the subadvisers (if applicable) may cause disruptions and impact the service providers’ and the Funds’ business operations, potentially resulting in financial losses, the inability of fund shareholders to transact business and the mutual funds to process transactions, inability to calculate a Fund’s net asset value, violations of applicable privacy and other laws, regulatory fines, penalties, reputational damage, reimbursement or other compensation costs, and/or additional compliance costs. The Funds may incur incremental costs to prevent cyber incidents in the future. The Funds and their shareholders could be negatively impacted as a result. While Janus Capital has established business continuity plans and risk management systems designed to prevent or reduce the impact of such cyber-attacks, there are inherent limitations in such plans and systems due in part to the ever-changing nature of technology and cyber-attack tactics. As such, there is a possibility that certain risks have not been adequately identified or prepared for. Furthermore, the Funds cannot directly control any cyber security plans and systems put in place by third party service providers. Cyber security risks are also present for issuers of securities in which a Fund invests, which could result in material adverse consequences for such issuers, and may cause the Fund’s investment in such securities to lose value.
Foreign Securities
Each Fund, including each INTECH Fund to the extent that foreign securities may be included in its respective named benchmark index, may invest in foreign securities either indirectly (e.g., depositary receipts, depositary shares, and passive foreign investment companies) or directly in foreign markets, including emerging markets. Investments in foreign securities may include, but are not necessarily limited to, corporate debt securities of foreign issuers, preferred or preference stock of
8 |
foreign issuers, certain foreign bank obligations, and U.S. dollar or foreign currency-denominated obligations of foreign governments or supranational entities or their subdivisions, agencies, and instrumentalities. Each of Janus Multi-Sector Income Fund, Janus Short-Term Bond Fund, Perkins Select Value Fund, and Perkins Value Plus Income Fund has, at times, invested a substantial portion of its assets in foreign securities and may continue to do so. Investments in foreign securities, including securities of foreign and emerging market governments, may involve greater risks than investing in domestic securities because a Fund’s performance may depend on factors other than the performance of a particular company. These factors include:
Currency Risk. As long as a Fund holds a foreign security, its value will be affected by the value of the local currency relative to the U.S. dollar. When a Fund sells a foreign currency denominated security, its value may be worth less in U.S. dollars even if the security increases in value in its home country. U.S. dollar-denominated securities of foreign issuers may also be affected by currency risk, as the value of these securities may also be affected by changes in the issuer’s local currency.
Political and Economic Risk. Foreign investments may be subject to heightened political and economic risks, particularly in emerging markets which may have relatively unstable governments, immature economic structures, national policies restricting investments by foreigners, social instability, and different and/or developing legal systems. In some countries, there is the risk that the government may take over the assets or operations of a company or that the government may impose withholding and other taxes or limits on the removal of a Fund’s assets from that country. In addition, the economies of emerging markets may be predominantly based on only a few industries, may be highly vulnerable to changes in local or global trade conditions, and may suffer from extreme and volatile debt burdens or inflation rates.
Regulatory Risk. There may be less government supervision of foreign markets. As a result, foreign issuers may not be subject to the uniform accounting, auditing, and financial reporting standards and practices applicable to domestic issuers, and there may be less publicly available information about foreign issuers.
Foreign Market Risk. Foreign securities markets, particularly those of emerging market countries, may be less liquid and more volatile than domestic markets. These securities markets may trade a small number of securities, may have a limited number of issuers and a high proportion of shares, or may be held by a relatively small number of persons or institutions. Local securities markets may be unable to respond effectively to increases in trading volume, potentially making prompt liquidation of substantial holdings difficult or impossible at times. It is also possible that certain markets may require payment for securities before delivery, and delays may be encountered in settling securities transactions. In some foreign markets, there may not be protection against failure by other parties to complete transactions. It may not be possible for a Fund to repatriate capital, dividends, interest, and other income from a particular country or governmental entity. In addition, securities of issuers located in or economically tied to countries with emerging markets may have limited marketability and may be subject to more abrupt or erratic price movements which could also have a negative effect on a Fund. Such factors may hinder a Fund’s ability to buy and sell emerging market securities in a timely manner, affecting the Fund’s investment strategies and potentially affecting the value of the Fund.
Geographic Investment Risk. To the extent that a Fund invests a significant portion of its assets in a particular country or geographic region, the Fund will generally have more exposure to certain risks due to possible political, economic, social, or regulatory events in that country or region. Adverse developments in certain regions could also adversely affect securities of other countries whose economies appear to be unrelated and could have a negative impact on a Fund’s performance.
Transaction Costs. Costs of buying, selling, and holding foreign securities, including brokerage, tax, and custody costs, may be higher than those involved in domestic transactions.
Eurozone Risk. In recent years, a number of countries in the European Union (“EU”) have experienced economic and financial difficulties. Many non-governmental issuers, and even certain governments, have defaulted on, or been forced to restructure, their debts. Many other issuers have faced difficulties obtaining credit or refinancing existing obligations. Financial institutions have in many cases required government or central bank support, have needed to raise capital, and/or have been impaired in their ability to extend credit. As a result, financial markets in the EU have experienced extreme volatility and declines in asset values and liquidity. These difficulties may continue, worsen, or spread further within the EU.
Certain countries in the EU have had to accept assistance from supra governmental agencies such as the International Monetary Fund and the recently created European Financial Service Facility. The European Central Bank has also been intervening to purchase Eurozone debt in an attempt to stabilize markets and reduce borrowing costs. Responses to these financial problems by European governments, central banks and others, including austerity measures and reforms, may not work, may result in social unrest, and may limit future growth and economic recovery or have other unintended
9 |
consequences. Further defaults or restructurings by governments and others of their debt could have additional adverse effects on economies, financial markets, and asset valuations around the world.
In addition, there is the continued risk that one or more countries may abandon the euro and/or withdraw from the EU. The impact of these actions, especially if they occur in a disorderly fashion, is not clear but could be significant and far-reaching. To the extent a Fund has exposure to European markets or to transactions tied to the value of the euro, these events could negatively affect the value and liquidity of the Fund’s investments.
All of these developments have adversely affected the value and exchange rate of the euro and may continue to significantly affect the economies of all EU countries, which in turn may have a material adverse effect on a Fund’s investments in such countries, other countries that depend on EU countries for significant amounts of trade or investment, or issuers with exposure to debt issued by certain EU countries.
Emerging Markets. Within the parameters of its specific investment policies, each Fund, including each INTECH Fund to the extent that emerging markets may be included in its respective named benchmark index, and particularly Janus Global Bond Fund, may invest its assets in securities of issuers or companies from or with exposure to one or more “developing countries” or “emerging market countries.” Such countries include, but are not limited to, countries included in the MSCI Emerging Markets Indexsm. Investing in emerging markets involves certain risks not typically associated with investing in the United States and imposes risks greater than, or in addition to, the risks associated with investing in securities of more developed foreign countries as previously discussed under “Foreign Securities.” The prices of investments in emerging markets can experience sudden and sharp price swings. In many developing markets, there is less government supervision and regulation of business and industry practices (including the potential lack of strict finance and accounting controls and standards), stock exchanges, brokers, and listed companies than in more developed markets, making these investments potentially more volatile in price and less liquid than investments in developed securities markets, resulting in greater risk to investors. There is a risk in developing countries that a future economic or political crisis could lead to price controls, forced mergers of companies, expropriation or confiscatory taxation, imposition or enforcement of foreign ownership limits, seizure, nationalization, sanctions or imposition of restrictions by various governmental entities on investment and trading, or creation of government monopolies, any of which may have a detrimental effect on a Fund’s investments. Many emerging market countries have experienced substantial, and in some periods extremely high, rates of inflation or deflation for many years, and future inflation may adversely affect the economies and securities markets of such countries. In addition, the economies of developing countries tend to be heavily dependent upon international trade and, as such, have been, and may continue to be, adversely impacted by trade barriers, exchange controls, managed adjustments in relative currency values, and other protectionist measures. These economies also have been, and may continue to be, adversely affected by economic conditions in the countries with which they do business.
The securities markets of many of the countries in which the Funds may invest may also be smaller, less liquid, and subject to greater price volatility than those in the United States. In the event of a default on any investments in foreign debt obligations, it may be more difficult for the Funds to obtain or to enforce a judgment against the issuers of such securities. In addition, there may be little financial or accounting information available with respect to issuers of emerging market securities, and it may be difficult as a result to assess the value of an investment in such securities. Further, a Fund’s ability to participate fully in the smaller, less liquid emerging markets may be limited by the policy restricting its investments in illiquid securities. The Funds may be subject to emerging markets risk to the extent that they invest in securities of issuers or companies which are not considered to be from emerging markets, but which have customers, products, or transactions associated with emerging markets.
Securities Listed on Chinese Stock Exchanges. Funds with the ability to invest in foreign securities may invest in securities listed on Chinese stock exchanges or have indirect exposure to these securities through derivative investments. These securities are divided into two classes of shares: China A Shares, ownership of which is restricted to foreign investors under the Qualified Foreign Individual Investor (“QFII”) structure, and China B Shares, which may be owned by both Chinese and foreign investors. With respect to investments in China A Shares, QFII licenses are granted by the China Securities Regulatory Commission (“CSRC”) and investment quota is granted by the State Administration of Foreign Exchange (“SAFE”). Janus Capital has been granted a QFII license and investment quota. There can be no assurance that a Fund will receive investment quota and as of the date of this SAI, none of the Funds have investment quota for China A Shares. For Janus funds that receive allocations, a failure to utilize quota and invest in Chinese local market securities and/or any repatriation of capital by a Fund may result in the permanent loss of investment quota otherwise available to the Funds or other funds.
10 |
With respect to direct China A Shares investments, as a general matter, any capital invested and profits generated cannot be repatriated for a minimum of one year. Repatriation of any invested capital is subject to approval by the regulator. Additionally, any repatriation of profits would be subject to an audit by a registered accountant in China, and subject to regulatory approval. In light of the foregoing, a Fund’s investment in China A Shares would be subject to the Fund’s limit of investing up to 15% of its net assets in illiquid investments. An investment in China A Shares is also generally subject to the risks identified under Foreign Securities, and foreign investment risks such as price controls, expropriation of assets, confiscatory taxation, and nationalization may be heightened when investing in China. The China A Shares market may be less liquid and trading prices could be more volatile than other foreign securities markets because of low trading volume and restrictions on movement of capital. Current Chinese tax law is unclear regarding whether capital gains realized on a Fund’s investments in China A Shares will be subject to tax.
People’s Republic of China (“PRC”) regulations require QFIIs to entrust assets held in the PRC and to interact with government agencies through a China-based qualified custodian bank. Assets attributable to clients of Janus Capital will be held by the custodian in foreign exchange accounts and securities accounts in the joint name of Janus Capital and its clients, although the terms of the custody agreement make clear that the contents of the accounts belong to the clients, and not to Janus Capital. China A Shares that are traded on the Shanghai or Shenzhen Stock Exchange are dealt and held in book-entry form through the China Securities Depository and Clearing Corporation (“CSDCC”). Securities purchased by Janus Capital, in its capacity as a QFII, on behalf of a Fund can currently be received by the CSDCC as credited to a securities trading account maintained in the joint names of Janus Capital and its clients. Janus Capital may not use the account for any other purpose than for maintaining a Fund’s assets. Given that the custody accounts and securities trading account are maintained in the joint names of Janus Capital and its clients, a Fund’s assets may not be as well protected as they would be if it were possible for them to be registered and held solely in the name of the Fund. In particular, there is a risk that creditors of Janus Capital may assert that the securities are owned by Janus Capital and not the Fund, and that a Chinese court, or a court applying Chinese law, would uphold such an assertion, in which case creditors of Janus Capital could seize assets of such Fund.
Risks of Investments in the PRC. In addition to the risks listed under “Foreign Securities” and “Emerging Markets,” investing in the PRC, or having indirect exposure to PRC through derivative investments, presents additional risks. These additional risks include (without limitation): (i) inefficiencies resulting from erratic growth; (ii) the unavailability of consistently-reliable economic data; (iii) potentially high rates of inflation; (iv) dependence on exports and international trade; (v) relatively high levels of asset price volatility; (vi) small market capitalization and less liquidity; (vii) greater competition from regional economies; (viii) fluctuations in currency exchange rates, particularly in light of the relative lack of currency hedging instruments and controls on the ability to exchange local currency for U.S. dollars; (ix) the relatively small size and absence of operating history of many Chinese companies; (x) the developing nature of the legal and regulatory framework for securities markets, custody arrangements and commerce; and (xi) uncertainty with respect to the commitment of the government of the PRC to economic reforms.
Although the PRC has experienced a relatively stable political environment in recent years, there is no guarantee that such stability will be maintained in the future. As an emerging market, many factors may affect such stability – such as increasing gaps between the rich and poor or agrarian unrest and instability of existing political structures – and may result in adverse consequences to a Fund investing in securities and instruments economically tied to the PRC. Political uncertainty, military intervention and political corruption could reverse favorable trends toward market and economic reform, privatization and removal of trade barriers, and could result in significant disruption to securities markets.
The PRC is dominated by the one-party rule of the Communist Party. Investments in the PRC are subject to risks associated with greater governmental control over and involvement in the economy. The PRC manages its currency at artificial levels relative to the U.S. dollar rather than at levels determined by the market. This type of system can lead to sudden and large adjustments in the currency, which, in turn, can have a disruptive and negative effect on foreign investors. The PRC also may restrict the free conversion of its currency into foreign currencies, including the U.S. dollar. Currency repatriation restrictions may have the effect of making securities and instruments tied to the PRC relatively illiquid, particularly in connection with redemption requests. In addition, the government of the PRC exercises significant control over economic growth through direct and heavy involvement in resource allocation and monetary policy, control over payment of foreign currency denominated obligations and provision of preferential treatment to particular industries and/or companies. Economic reform programs in the PRC have contributed to growth, but there is no guarantee that such reforms will continue.
Natural disasters such as droughts, floods, earthquakes and tsunamis have plagued the PRC in the past, and the region’s economy may be affected by such environmental events in the future. A Fund’s investment in the PRC is, therefore, subject to
11 |
the risk of such events. In addition, the relationship between the PRC and Taiwan is particularly sensitive, and hostilities between the PRC and Taiwan may present a risk to a Fund’s investments in the PRC.
Risks of Investments in Russia. In addition to the risks listed under “Foreign Securities” and “Emerging Markets,” investing in Russia, or having indirect exposure to Russian securities through derivative investments, presents additional risks. The Russian securities market is relatively new, and a substantial portion of securities transactions are privately negotiated outside of stock exchanges. The inexperience of the Russian securities market and the limited volume of trading in securities in the market may make obtaining accurate prices on portfolio securities from independent sources more difficult than in more developed markets.
Because of the recent formation of the Russian securities markets, the underdeveloped state of Russia’s banking and telecommunication system and the legal and regulatory framework in Russia, settlement, clearing and registration of securities transactions are subject to additional risks. Prior to 2013, there was no central registration system for equity share registration in Russia and registration was carried out either by the issuers themselves or by registrars located throughout Russia. These registrars may not have been subject to effective state supervision or licensed with any governmental entity. In 2013, Russia established the National Settlement Depository (“NSD”) as a recognized central securities depository, and title to Russian equities is now based on the records of the NSD and not on the records of the local registrars. The implementation of the NSD is generally expected to decrease the risk of loss in connection with recording and transferring title to securities; however, loss may still occur. Additionally, issuers and registrars remain prominent in the validation and approval of documentation requirements for corporate action processing in Russia, and there remain inconsistent market standards in the Russian market with respect to the completion and submission of corporate action elections. To the extent that a Fund suffers a loss relating to title or corporate actions relating to its portfolio securities, it may be difficult for the Fund to enforce its rights or otherwise remedy the loss. In addition, Russia also may attempt to assert its influence in the region through economic or even military measures, as it did with Georgia in the summer of 2008 and the Ukraine in 2014. Such measures may have an adverse effect on the Russian economy, which may, in turn, negatively impact a Fund.
The Russian economy is heavily dependent upon the export of a range of commodities including most industrial metals, forestry products, oil, and gas. Accordingly, it is strongly affected by international commodity prices and is particularly vulnerable to any weakening in global demand for these products. Foreign investors also face a high degree of currency risk when investing in Russian securities and a lack of available currency hedging instruments. In addition, there is the risk that the Russian government may impose capital controls on foreign portfolio investments in the event of extreme financial or political crisis. Such capital controls may prevent the sale of a portfolio of foreign assets and the repatriation of investment income and capital.
The United States and the European Union have imposed economic sanctions on certain Russian individuals and a financial institution. The United States or the European Union could also institute broader sanctions on Russia. These sanctions, or even the threat of further sanctions, may result in the decline of the value and liquidity of Russian securities, a weakening of the ruble or other adverse consequences to the Russian economy. These sanctions could also result in the immediate freeze of Russian securities, impairing the ability of a Fund to buy, sell, receive or deliver those securities. Sanctions could also result in Russia taking counter measures or retaliatory actions which may further impair the value and liquidity of Russian securities.
Risks of Investments in Latin American Countries. In addition to the risks listed under “Foreign Securities” and “Emerging Markets,” investing in Latin American countries, or having indirect exposure to Latin American securities through derivative investments, presents additional risks. Most Latin American countries have experienced, at one time or another, severe and persistent levels of inflation, including, in some cases, hyperinflation. This has, in turn, led to high interest rates, extreme measures by governments to keep inflation in check, and a generally debilitating effect on economic growth. Although inflation in many countries has lessened, there is no guarantee it will remain at lower levels.
As an emerging market, Latin America historically suffered from social, political, and economic instability. For investors, this has meant additional risk caused by periods of regional conflict, political corruption, totalitarianism, protectionist measures, nationalization, hyperinflation, debt crises, sudden and large currency devaluation, and intervention by the military in civilian and economic spheres. However, in some Latin American countries, a move to sustainable democracy and a more mature and accountable political environment is under way. Domestic economies have been deregulated, privatization of state-owned companies is almost completed and foreign trade restrictions have been relaxed.
Nonetheless, to the extent that events such as those listed above continue in the future, they could reverse favorable trends toward market and economic reform, privatization, and removal of trade barriers, and result in significant disruption in
12 |
securities markets in the region. In addition, recent favorable economic performance in much of the region has led to a concern regarding government overspending in certain Latin American countries. Investors in the region continue to face a number of potential risks.
Certain Latin American countries depend heavily on exports to the U.S. and investments from a small number of countries. Accordingly, these countries may be sensitive to fluctuations in demand, exchange rates and changes in market conditions associated with those countries. The economic growth of most Latin American countries is highly dependent on commodity exports and the economies of certain Latin American countries, particularly Mexico and Venezuela, are highly dependent on oil exports. As a result, these economies are particularly susceptible to fluctuations in the price of oil and other commodities and currency fluctuations. The recent global financial crisis weakened the global demand for oil and other commodities and, as a result, Latin American countries faced significant economic difficulties that led certain countries into recession. If global economic conditions worsen, prices for Latin American commodities may experience increased volatility and demand may continue to decrease. Although certain of these countries have recently shown signs of recovery, such recovery, if sustained, may be gradual. In addition, prolonged economic difficulties may have negative effects on the transition to a more stable democracy in some Latin American countries. In certain countries, political risk, including nationalization risk, is high.
A number of Latin American countries are among the largest debtors of developing countries and have a history of reliance on foreign debt and default. The majority of the region’s economies have become dependent upon foreign credit and loans from external sources to fund government economic plans. Historically, these plans have frequently resulted in little benefit accruing to the economy. Most countries have been forced to restructure their loans or risk default on their debt obligations. In addition, interest on the debt is subject to market conditions and may reach levels that would impair economic activity and create a difficult and costly environment for borrowers. Accordingly, these governments may be forced to reschedule or freeze their debt repayment, which could negatively affect local markets. Because of their dependence on foreign credit and loans, a number of Latin American economies faced significant economic difficulties and some economies fell into recession as the recent global financial crisis tightened international credit supplies. While the region has recently shown signs of economic improvement, recovery from past economic downturns in Latin America has historically been slow, and any such recovery, if sustained, may be gradual. The European crisis and weakened global economy may reduce demand for exports from Latin America and limit the availability of foreign credit for some countries in the region. As a result, a Fund’s investments in Latin American securities could be harmed if economic recovery in the region is limited.
Short Sales
Certain Funds, with the exception of the INTECH Funds, may engage in “short sales against the box.” This technique involves either selling short a security that a Fund owns, or selling short a security that a Fund has the right to obtain, for delivery at a specified date in the future. A Fund does not deliver from its portfolio the securities sold short and does not immediately receive the proceeds of the short sale. A Fund borrows the securities sold short and receives proceeds from the short sale only when it delivers the securities to the lender. If the value of the securities sold short increases prior to the scheduled delivery date, a Fund loses the opportunity to participate in the gain.
Certain Funds, with the exception of the INTECH Funds, may also engage in other short sales. A Fund may engage in short sales when the portfolio managers and/or investment personnel anticipate that a security’s market purchase price will be less than its borrowing price. In a short sale transaction, a Fund sells a security it does not own to a purchaser at a specified price. To complete a short sale, the Fund must: (i) borrow the security to deliver it to the purchaser and (ii) buy that same security in the market to return it to the lender. Short sales involve the same fundamental risk as short sales against the box, as described in the previous paragraph. In addition, the Fund may incur a loss as a result of the short sale if the price of the security increases between the date of the short sale and the date on which the Fund replaces the borrowed security, and the Fund may realize a gain if the security declines in price between those same dates. Although a Fund’s potential for gain as a result of a short sale is limited to the price at which it sold the security short less the cost of borrowing the security, the potential for loss is theoretically unlimited because there is no limit to the cost of replacing the borrowed security. To borrow the security, the Fund may also be required to pay a premium, which would increase the cost of the security sold.
The Funds may not always be able to close out a short position at a particular time or at an acceptable price. A lender may request that the borrowed securities be returned to it on short notice, and a Fund may have to buy the borrowed securities at an unfavorable price. If this occurs at a time when other short sellers of the same security also want to close out their positions, it is more likely that a Fund will have to cover its short sale at an unfavorable price and potentially reduce or eliminate any gain, or cause a loss, as a result of the short sale.
13 |
Until a Fund closes its short position or replaces the borrowed security, the Fund may designate liquid assets it owns (other than the short sale proceeds) as segregated assets to the books of the broker and/or its custodian in an amount equal to its obligation to purchase the securities sold short, as required by the 1940 Act. The amount segregated in this manner is expected to be increased or decreased each business day equal to the change in market value of the Fund’s obligation to purchase the security sold short. The proceeds of the short sale will be retained by the broker, to the extent necessary to meet the margin requirements, until the short position is closed out. If the lending broker requires the Fund to deposit additional collateral (in addition to the short sales proceeds that the broker holds during the period of the short sale), which may be as much as 50% of the value of the securities sold short, the amount of the additional collateral may be deducted in determining the amount of cash or liquid assets the Fund is required to segregate to cover the short sale obligation pursuant to the 1940 Act. The amount segregated must be unencumbered by any other obligation or claim other than the obligation that is being covered. A Fund believes that short sale obligations that are covered, either by an offsetting asset or right (acquiring the security sold short or having an option to purchase the security sold short at an exercise price that covers the obligation), or by the Fund’s segregated asset procedures (or a combination thereof), are not senior securities under the 1940 Act and are not subject to the Fund’s borrowing restrictions. This requirement to segregate assets limits a Fund’s leveraging of its investments and the related risk of losses from leveraging. A Fund also is required to pay the lender of the security any dividends or interest that accrues on a borrowed security during the period of the loan. Depending on the arrangements made with the broker or custodian, a Fund may or may not receive any payments (including interest) on collateral it has deposited with the broker. Certain Funds’ ability to invest in short sales may be limited, as described in the Fund’s Prospectuses.
Zero Coupon, Step Coupon, and Pay-In-Kind Securities
Within the parameters of its specific investment policies, each Fund, with the exception of the INTECH Funds, may invest up to 10% (without limit for Janus Flexible Bond Fund, Janus Global Bond Fund, Janus High-Yield Fund, Janus Multi-Sector Income Fund, and Janus Real Return Fund) of its net assets in zero coupon, step coupon, and pay-in-kind securities. Zero coupon bonds are issued and traded at a discount from their face value. They do not entitle the holder to any periodic payment of interest prior to maturity. Step coupon bonds are high-quality issues with above-market interest rates and a coupon that increases over the life of the bond. They may pay monthly, semiannual, or annual interest payments. On the date of each coupon payment, the issuer decides whether to call the bond at par or whether to extend it until the next payment date at the new coupon rate. Pay-in-kind bonds normally give the issuer an option to pay cash at a coupon payment date or give the holder of the security a similar bond with the same coupon rate and a face value equal to the amount of the coupon payment that would have been made. For purposes of a Fund’s restriction on investing in income-producing securities, income-producing securities include securities that make periodic interest payments as well as those that make interest payments on a deferred basis or pay interest only at maturity (e.g., Treasury bills or zero coupon bonds).
For federal income tax purposes, holders of zero coupon securities and step coupon securities are required to recognize income even though the holders receive no cash payments of interest during the year. Similarly, holders of payment-in-kind securities must include in their gross income the value of securities they receive as “interest.” In order to qualify as a “regulated investment company” under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the regulations thereunder, a Fund must distribute its investment company taxable income, including the original issue discount accrued on zero coupon or step coupon bonds and non-cash income from payment-in-kind securities. Because a Fund will not receive cash payments on a current basis with respect to accrued original-issue discount on zero coupon bonds or step coupon bonds during the period before interest payments begin or may receive non-cash interest payments, in some years that Fund may have to distribute cash obtained from other sources in order to satisfy the distribution requirements under the Internal Revenue Code. A Fund may obtain such cash from selling other portfolio holdings, which may cause that Fund to incur capital gains or losses on the sale. Additionally, these actions are likely to reduce the amount of cash available for investment by a Fund, to reduce the assets to which Fund expenses could be allocated, and to reduce the rate of return for that Fund. In some circumstances, such sales might be necessary in order to satisfy cash distribution requirements even though investment considerations might otherwise make it undesirable for a Fund to sell the securities at the time.
Generally, the market prices of zero coupon, step coupon, and pay-in-kind securities are more volatile than the prices of securities that pay interest periodically and in cash and are likely to respond to changes in interest rates to a greater degree than other types of debt securities having similar maturities and credit quality. Additionally, such securities may be subject to heightened credit and valuation risk.

Pass-Through Securities
The Funds, with the exception of the INTECH Funds, may invest in various types of pass-through securities, such as commercial and residential mortgage-backed securities, asset-backed securities, credit-linked trust certificates, traded custody receipts, and participation interests. A pass-through security is a share or certificate of interest in a pool of debt obligations that have been repackaged by an intermediary, such as a bank or broker-dealer. The purchaser of a pass-through security receives an undivided interest in the underlying pool of securities. The issuers of the underlying securities make interest and principal payments to the intermediary, which are passed through to purchasers, such as the Funds.
Agency Mortgage-Related Securities. The most common type of pass-through securities is mortgage-backed securities. Government National Mortgage Association (“Ginnie Mae”) Certificates are mortgage-backed securities that evidence an undivided interest in a pool of mortgage loans. Ginnie Mae Certificates differ from bonds in that principal is paid back monthly by the borrowers over the term of the loan rather than returned in a lump sum at maturity. A Fund will generally purchase “modified pass-through” Ginnie Mae Certificates, which entitle the holder to receive a share of all interest and principal payments paid and owned on the mortgage pool, net of fees paid to the “issuer” and Ginnie Mae, regardless of whether or not the mortgagor actually makes the payment. Ginnie Mae Certificates are backed as to the timely payment of principal and interest by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government.
The Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“Freddie Mac”) issues two types of mortgage pass-through securities: mortgage participation certificates (“PCs”) and guaranteed mortgage certificates (“GMCs”). PCs resemble Ginnie Mae Certificates in that each PC represents a pro rata share of all interest and principal payments made and owned on the underlying pool. Freddie Mac guarantees timely payments of interest on PCs and the full return of principal. GMCs also represent a pro rata interest in a pool of mortgages. However, these instruments pay interest semiannually and return principal once a year in guaranteed minimum payments. This type of security is guaranteed by Freddie Mac as to timely payment of principal and interest, but it is not guaranteed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government.
The Federal National Mortgage Association (“Fannie Mae”) issues guaranteed mortgage pass-through certificates (“Fannie Mae Certificates”). Fannie Mae Certificates resemble Ginnie Mae Certificates in that each Fannie Mae Certificate represents a pro rata share of all interest and principal payments made and owned on the underlying pool. This type of security is guaranteed by Fannie Mae as to timely payment of principal and interest, but it is not guaranteed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government.
In September 2008, the Federal Housing Finance Agency (“FHFA”), an agency of the U.S. Government, placed Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac under conservatorship. Under the conservatorship, the management of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac was replaced. Since 2008, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac have received capital support through U.S. Treasury preferred stock purchases and Treasury and Federal Reserve purchases of their mortgage-backed securities. The FHFA and the U.S. Treasury have imposed strict limits on the size of these entities’ mortgage portfolios. The FHFA has the power to cancel any contract entered into by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac prior to FHFA’s appointment as conservator or receiver, including the guarantee obligations of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. As of the date of this SAI, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac remain under conservatorship.
Recently, Congress began considering proposals to wind down Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac and reduce the government’s role in the mortgage market. The proposals include whether Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac should be nationalized, privatized, restructured, or eliminated altogether. Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac also are the subject of several continuing legal actions and investigations over certain accounting, disclosure, and corporate governance matters, which (along with any resulting financial restatements) may continue to have an adverse effect on these guaranteeing entities. As a result, the future for Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac is uncertain, as is the impact of such proposals, actions, and investigations on investments in securities issued by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.
Except for GMCs, each of the mortgage-backed securities described above is characterized by monthly payments to the holder, reflecting the monthly payments made by the borrowers who received the underlying mortgage loans. The payments to the security holders (such as the Funds), like the payments on the underlying loans, represent both principal and interest. Although the underlying mortgage loans are for specified periods of time, such as 20 or 30 years, the borrowers can, and typically do, pay them off sooner. Thus, the security holders frequently receive prepayments of principal in addition to the principal that is part of the regular monthly payments. The portfolio managers and/or investment personnel will consider estimated prepayment rates in calculating the average-weighted maturity of a Fund, if relevant. A borrower is more likely to prepay a mortgage that bears a relatively high rate of interest. This means that in times of declining interest rates, higher yielding mortgage-backed securities held by a Fund might be converted to cash, and the Fund will be forced to accept lower
15 |
interest rates when that cash is used to purchase additional securities in the mortgage-backed securities sector or in other investment sectors. Additionally, prepayments during such periods will limit a Fund’s ability to participate in as large a market gain as may be experienced with a comparable security not subject to prepayment.
The Funds’ investments in mortgage-backed securities, including privately-issued mortgage-related securities where applicable, may be backed by subprime mortgages. Subprime mortgages are loans made to borrowers with weakened credit histories or with a lower capacity to make timely payments on their mortgages. Investments in mortgage-backed securities comprised of subprime mortgages may be subject to a higher degree of credit risk, valuation risk, and liquidity risk.
Asset-Backed Securities. Asset-backed securities represent interests in pools of consumer loans and are backed by paper or accounts receivables originated by banks, credit card companies, or other providers of credit. Asset-backed securities are created from many types of assets, including, but not limited to, auto loans, accounts receivable such as credit card receivables and hospital account receivables, home equity loans, student loans, boat loans, mobile home loans, recreational vehicle loans, manufactured housing loans, aircraft leases, computer leases, and syndicated bank loans. Generally, the originating bank or credit provider is neither the obligor nor the guarantor of the security, and interest and principal payments ultimately depend upon payment of the underlying loans by individuals. Tax-exempt asset-backed securities include units of beneficial interests in pools of purchase contracts, financing leases, and sales agreements that may be created when a municipality enters into an installment purchase contract or lease with a vendor. Such securities may be secured by the assets purchased or leased by the municipality; however, if the municipality stops making payments, there generally will be no recourse against the vendor. The market for tax-exempt, asset-backed securities is still relatively new. These obligations are likely to involve unscheduled prepayments of principal.
Privately Issued Mortgage-Related Securities. Privately issued mortgage-related securities are pass-through pools of conventional residential mortgage loans created by commercial banks, savings and loan institutions, private mortgage insurance companies, mortgage bankers and other secondary market issuers. Such issuers may be the originators and/or servicers of the underlying mortgage loans as well as the guarantors of the mortgage-related securities. Pools created by such non-governmental issuers generally offer a higher rate of interest than government and government-related pools because there are no direct or indirect government or agency guarantees of payments in the former pools. However, timely payment of interest and principal of these pools may be supported by various forms of insurance or guarantees, including individual loan, title, pool and hazard insurance and letters of credit, which may be issued by governmental entities or private insurers. Such insurance and guarantees and the creditworthiness of the issuers thereof will be considered in determining whether a mortgage-related security meets the Trust’s investment quality standards. There can be no assurance that insurers or guarantors can meet their obligations under the insurance policies or guarantee arrangements. A Fund may buy mortgage-related securities without insurance or guarantees if, through an examination of the loan experience and practices of the originators/servicers and poolers, Janus Capital determines that the securities meet the Trust’s quality standards. Securities issued by certain private organizations may not be readily marketable. A Fund will not purchase mortgage-related securities or any other assets which in Janus Capital’s opinion are illiquid if, as a result, more than 15% of the value of the Fund’s net assets will be illiquid.
Privately issued mortgage-related securities are not subject to the same underwriting requirements for the underlying mortgages that are applicable to those mortgage-related securities that have a government or government-sponsored entity guarantee. As a result, the mortgage loans underlying privately issued mortgage-related securities may, and frequently do, have less favorable collateral, credit risk or other underwriting characteristics than government or government-sponsored mortgage-related securities and have wider variances in a number of terms including interest rate, term, size, purpose and borrower characteristics. Mortgage pools underlying privately issued mortgage-related securities more frequently include second mortgages, high loan-to-value ratio mortgages and manufactured housing loans, in addition to commercial mortgages and other types of mortgages where a government or government-sponsored entity guarantee is not available. The coupon rates and maturities of the underlying mortgage loans in a privately-issued mortgage-related securities pool may vary to a greater extent than those included in a government guaranteed pool, and the pool may include subprime mortgage loans.
The risk of non-payment is greater for mortgage-related securities that are backed by loans that were originated under weak underwriting standards, including loans made to borrowers with limited means to make repayment. A level of risk exists for all loans, although, historically, the poorest performing loans have been those classified as subprime. Other types of privately issued mortgage-related securities, such as those classified as pay-option adjustable rate or Alt-A have also performed poorly. Even loans classified as prime have experienced higher levels of delinquencies and defaults. The substantial decline in real property values across the U.S. has exacerbated the level of losses that investors in privately issued mortgage-related securities have experienced. It is not certain when these trends may reverse. Market factors that may adversely affect mortgage loan
16 |
repayment include adverse economic conditions, unemployment, a decline in the value of real property, or an increase in interest rates.
Privately issued mortgage-related securities are not traded on an exchange and there may be a limited market for the securities, especially when there is a perceived weakness in the mortgage and real estate market sectors. Without an active trading market, mortgage-related securities held in a Fund’s portfolio may be particularly difficult to value because of the complexities involved in assessing the value of the underlying mortgage loans.
A Fund may purchase privately issued mortgage-related securities that are originated, packaged and serviced by third party entities. It is possible these third parties could have interests that are in conflict with the holders of mortgage-related securities, and such holders (such as a Fund) could have rights against the third parties or their affiliates. For example, if a loan originator, servicer or its affiliates engaged in negligence or willful misconduct in carrying out its duties, then a holder of the mortgage-related security could seek recourse against the originator/servicer or its affiliates, as applicable. Also, as a loan originator/servicer, the originator/servicer or its affiliates may make certain representations and warranties regarding the quality of the mortgages and properties underlying a mortgage-related security. If one or more of those representations or warranties is false, then the holders of the mortgage-related securities (such as a Fund) could trigger an obligation of the originator/servicer or its affiliates, as applicable, to repurchase the mortgages from the issuing trust. Notwithstanding the foregoing, many of the third parties that are legally bound by trust and other documents have failed to perform their respective duties, as stipulated in such trust and other documents, and investors have had limited success in enforcing terms.
Mortgage-related securities that are issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government, its agencies or instrumentalities, are not subject to the Funds’ industry concentration restrictions by virtue of the exclusion from that test available to all U.S. Government securities. In the case of privately issued mortgage-related securities, Janus Capital takes the position that mortgage-related securities do not represent interests in any particular “industry” or group of industries. Therefore, a Fund may invest more or less than 25% of its total assets in privately issued mortgage-related securities. The assets underlying such securities may be represented by a portfolio of residential or commercial mortgages (including both whole mortgage loans and mortgage participation interests that may be senior or junior in terms of priority of repayment) or portfolios of mortgage pass-through securities issued or guaranteed by Ginnie Mae, Freddie Mac or Fannie Mae. Mortgage loans underlying a mortgage-related security may in turn be insured or guaranteed by the Federal Housing Administration or the Department of Veterans Affairs. In the case of privately issued mortgage-related securities whose underlying assets are neither U.S. Government securities nor U.S. Government-insured mortgages, to the extent that real properties securing such assets may be located in the same geographical region, the security may be subject to a greater risk of default than other comparable securities in the event of adverse economic, political or business developments that may affect such region and, ultimately, the ability of residential homeowners to make payments of principal and interest on the underlying mortgages.
Commercial Mortgage-Backed Securities. A Fund may invest in commercial mortgage-backed securities. Commercial mortgage-backed securities include securities that reflect an interest in, and are secured by, mortgage loans on commercial real property. Many of the risks of investing in commercial mortgage-backed securities reflect the risks of investing in the real estate securing the underlying mortgage loans. These risks reflect the effects of local and other economic conditions on real estate markets, the ability of tenants to make loan payments, and the ability of a property to attract and retain tenants. Commercial mortgage-backed securities may be less liquid and exhibit greater price volatility than other types of mortgage- or asset-backed securities.
Other Mortgage-Related Securities. Other mortgage-related securities in which a Fund may invest include securities other than those described above that directly or indirectly represent a participation in, or are secured by and payable from, mortgage loans on real property, including collateralized mortgage obligation residuals or stripped mortgage-backed securities (“SMBS”). Other mortgage-related securities may be equity or debt securities issued by agencies or instrumentalities of the U.S. Government or by private originators of, or investors in, mortgage loans, including savings and loan associations, homebuilders, mortgage banks, commercial banks, investment banks, partnerships, trusts and special purpose entities of the foregoing. In addition, a Fund may invest in any combination of mortgage-related interest-only or principal-only debt.
Mortgage-related securities include, among other things, securities that reflect an interest in reverse mortgages. In a reverse mortgage, a lender makes a loan to a homeowner based on the homeowner’s equity in his or her home. While a homeowner must be age 62 or older to qualify for a reverse mortgage, reverse mortgages may have no income restrictions. Repayment of the interest or principal for the loan is generally not required until the homeowner dies, sells the home, or ceases to use the home as his or her primary residence.
17 |
There are three general types of reverse mortgages: (1) single-purpose reverse mortgages, which are offered by certain state and local government agencies and nonprofit organizations; (2) federally-insured reverse mortgages, which are backed by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development; and (3) proprietary reverse mortgages, which are privately offered loans. A mortgage-related security may be backed by a single type of reverse mortgage. Reverse mortgage-related securities include agency and privately issued mortgage-related securities. The principal government guarantor of reverse mortgage-related securities is Ginnie Mae.
Reverse mortgage-related securities may be subject to risks different than other types of mortgage-related securities due to the unique nature of the underlying loans. The date of repayment for such loans is uncertain and may occur sooner or later than anticipated. The timing of payments for the corresponding mortgage-related security may be uncertain. Because reverse mortgages are offered only to persons 62 and older and there may be no income restrictions, the loans may react differently than traditional home loans to market events.
Adjustable Rate Mortgage-Backed Securities. A Fund may invest in adjustable rate mortgage-backed securities (“ARMBSs”), which have interest rates that reset at periodic intervals. Acquiring ARMBSs permits a Fund to participate in increases in prevailing current interest rates through periodic adjustments in the coupons of mortgages underlying the pool on which ARMBSs are based. Such ARMBSs generally have higher current yield and lower price fluctuations than is the case with more traditional fixed income debt securities of comparable rating and maturity. In addition, when prepayments of principal are made on the underlying mortgages during periods of rising interest rates, a Fund can reinvest the proceeds of such prepayments at rates higher than those at which they were previously invested. Mortgages underlying most ARMBSs, however, have limits on the allowable annual or lifetime increases that can be made in the interest rate that the mortgagor pays. Therefore, if current interest rates rise above such limits over the period of the limitation, a Fund, when holding an ARMBS, does not benefit from further increases in interest rates. Moreover, when interest rates are in excess of coupon rates (i.e., the rates being paid by mortgagors) of the mortgages, ARMBSs behave more like fixed income securities and less like adjustable rate securities and are subject to the risks associated with fixed income securities. In addition, during periods of rising interest rates, increases in the coupon rate of adjustable rate mortgages generally lag current market interest rates slightly, thereby creating the potential for capital depreciation on such securities.
Other Types of Pass-Through Securities. The Funds, with the exception of the INTECH Funds, also may invest in other types of pass-through securities, such as credit-linked trust certificates, traded custody receipts, and participation interests. Holders of the interests are entitled to receive distributions of interest, principal, and other payments on each of the underlying debt securities (less expenses), and in some cases distributions of the underlying debt securities. The underlying debt securities have a specified maturity but are subject to prepayment risk because if an issuer prepays the principal, a Fund may have additional cash to invest at a time when prevailing interest rates have declined and reinvestment of such additional funds is made at a lower rate. The value of the underlying debt securities may change due to changes in market interest rates. If interest rates rise, the value of the underlying debt securities, and therefore the value of the pass-through security, may decline. If the underlying debt securities are high-yield securities, the risks associated with high-yield/high-risk securities discussed in this SAI and in the Funds’ Prospectuses may apply.
Investment Company Securities
From time to time, the Funds may invest in securities of other investment companies, subject to the provisions of the 1940 Act and any applicable SEC exemptive orders. Section 12(d)(1) of the 1940 Act prohibits a Fund from acquiring: (i) more than 3% of another investment company’s voting stock; (ii) securities of another investment company with a value in excess of 5% of a Fund’s total assets; or (iii) securities of such other investment company and all other investment companies owned by a Fund having a value in excess of 10% of the Fund’s total assets. In addition, Section 12(d)(1) prohibits another investment company from selling its shares to a Fund if, after the sale: (i) the Fund owns more than 3% of the other investment company’s voting stock or (ii) the Fund and other investment companies, and companies controlled by them, own more than 10% of the voting stock of such other investment company. To the extent a Fund is an underlying fund in a Janus fund of funds, the Fund may not acquire securities of other investment companies in reliance on Section 12(d)(1)(F) and securities of open-end investment companies or registered unit investment trusts in reliance on Section 12(d)(1)(G). The Funds may invest their cash holdings in affiliated or non-affiliated money market funds as part of a cash sweep program. The Funds may purchase unlimited shares of affiliated or non-affiliated money market funds and of other funds managed by Janus Capital, whether registered or unregistered entities, as permitted by the 1940 Act and rules promulgated thereunder and/or an SEC exemptive order. To the extent the Funds invest in money market funds or other funds, the Funds will be subject to the same risks that investors experience when investing in such other funds. These risks may include the impact of significant fluctuations in assets as a result of the cash sweep program or purchase and redemption activity by affiliated or
18 |
non-affiliated shareholders in such other funds. Additionally, to the extent that Janus Capital serves as the investment adviser to underlying funds or investment vehicles in which a Fund may invest, Janus Capital may have conflicting interests in fulfilling its fiduciary duties to both the Funds and the underlying funds or investment vehicles.
Investment companies may include index-based investments such as exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”), which hold substantially all of their assets in investments representing specific indices. The main risk of investing in index-based investments is the same as investing in a portfolio of investments comprising the index. Index-based investments may not replicate exactly the performance of their specific index because of transaction costs and because of the temporary unavailability of certain component securities of the index. Some ETFs have obtained exemptive orders permitting other investment companies, such as the Funds, to acquire their securities in excess of the limits of the 1940 Act.
As a shareholder of another investment company, a Fund would bear its pro rata portion of the other investment company’s expenses, including advisory fees, in addition to the expenses the Fund bears directly in connection with its own operation. The market prices of index-based investments and closed-end funds will fluctuate in accordance with both changes in the market value of their underlying portfolio investments and due to supply and demand for the instruments on the exchanges on which they are traded (which may result in their trading at a discount or premium to their NAVs). If the market price of shares of an index-based investment or closed-end fund decreases below the price that a Fund paid for the shares and the Fund were to sell its shares of such investment company at a time when the market price is lower than the price at which it purchased the shares, the Fund would experience a loss.
Exchange-Traded Notes
Certain Funds may invest in exchange-traded notes (“ETNs”), which are senior, unsecured, unsubordinated debt securities whose returns are linked to a particular index and provide exposure to the total returns of various market indices, including indices linked to stocks, bonds, commodities, and currencies. This type of debt security differs from other types of bonds and notes. ETN returns are based upon the performance of a market index minus applicable fees; no period coupon payments are distributed and no principal protections exist. ETNs do not pay cash distributions. Instead, the value of dividends, interest, and investment gains are captured in a Fund’s total return. A Fund may invest in these securities when desiring exposure to debt securities or commodities. When evaluating ETNs for investment, Janus Capital or the subadviser, as applicable, will consider the potential risks involved, expected tax efficiency, rate of return, and credit risk. As senior debt securities, ETNs rank above the issuing company’s other securities in the event of a bankruptcy or liquidation, which means a Fund would be in line to receive repayment of its investment before certain of the company’s other creditors. When a Fund invests in ETNs, it will bear its proportionate share of any fees and expenses borne by the ETN. There may be restrictions on a Fund’s right to redeem its investment in an ETN, which are meant to be held until maturity. A Fund’s decision to sell its ETN holdings may be limited by the availability of a secondary market.
Depositary Receipts
Each Fund, including each INTECH Fund to the extent that they may be included in its respective named benchmark index, may invest in sponsored and unsponsored American Depositary Receipts (“ADRs”), which are receipts issued by an American bank or trust company evidencing ownership of underlying securities issued by a foreign issuer. ADRs, in registered form, are designed for use in U.S. securities markets. Unsponsored ADRs may be created without the participation of the foreign issuer. Holders of these ADRs generally bear all the costs of the ADR facility, whereas foreign issuers typically bear certain costs in a sponsored ADR. The bank or trust company depositary of an unsponsored ADR may be under no obligation to distribute shareholder communications received from the foreign issuer or to pass through voting rights. The Funds may also invest in European Depositary Receipts (“EDRs”), Global Depositary Receipts (“GDRs”), and in other similar instruments representing securities of foreign companies. EDRs and GDRs are securities that are typically issued by foreign banks or foreign trust companies, although U.S. banks or U.S. trust companies may issue them. EDRs and GDRs are structured similarly to the arrangements of ADRs. EDRs, in bearer form, are designed for use in European securities markets.
Depositary receipts are generally subject to the same sort of risks as direct investments in a foreign country, such as currency risk, political and economic risk, regulatory risk, market risk, and geographic investment risk, because their values depend on the performance of a foreign security denominated in its home currency. The risks of foreign investing are addressed in some detail in the Funds’ Prospectuses.
U.S. Government Securities
To the extent permitted by its investment objective and policies, each Fund, particularly Janus Flexible Bond Fund, Janus Global Bond Fund, Janus Multi-Sector Income Fund, Janus Real Return Fund, Janus Short-Term Bond Fund, and Perkins Value Plus Income Fund, may invest in U.S. Government securities. The INTECH Funds may have exposure to
19 |
U.S. Government securities only to the extent the cash sweep program may invest in such instruments. The 1940 Act defines U.S. Government securities to include securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government, its agencies, and its instrumentalities. U.S. Government securities may also include repurchase agreements collateralized by and municipal securities escrowed with or refunded with U.S. Government securities. U.S. Government securities in which a Fund may invest include U.S. Treasury securities, including Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities (“TIPS”), Treasury bills, notes, and bonds, and obligations issued or guaranteed by U.S. Government agencies and instrumentalities that are backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government, such as those issued or guaranteed by the Small Business Administration, Maritime Administration, Export-Import Bank of the United States, Farmers Home Administration, Federal Housing Administration, and Ginnie Mae. In addition, U.S. Government securities in which a Fund may invest include securities backed only by the rights of the issuers to borrow from the U.S. Treasury, such as those issued by the members of the Federal Farm Credit System, Federal Intermediate Credit Banks, Tennessee Valley Authority, and Freddie Mac. Securities issued by Fannie Mae, the Federal Home Loan Banks, and the Student Loan Marketing Association (“Sallie Mae”) are supported by the discretionary authority of the U.S. Government to purchase the obligations. There is no guarantee that the U.S. Government will support securities not backed by its full faith and credit. Accordingly, although these securities have historically involved little risk of loss of principal if held to maturity, they may involve more risk than securities backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government because the Funds must look principally to the agency or instrumentality issuing or guaranteeing the securities for repayment and may not be able to assert a claim against the United States if the agency or instrumentality does not meet its commitment.
Because of the rising U.S. Government debt burden, it is possible that the U.S. Government may not be able to meet its financial obligations or that securities issued or backed by the U.S. Government may experience credit downgrades. Such a credit event may adversely affect the financial markets.
Inflation-Linked Securities
A Fund may invest in inflation-indexed bonds, including municipal inflation-indexed bonds and corporate inflation-indexed bonds. Inflation-linked bonds are fixed-income securities that have a principal value that is periodically adjusted according to the rate of inflation. If an index measuring inflation falls, the principal value of inflation-indexed bonds will typically be adjusted downward, and consequently the interest payable on these securities (calculated with respect to a smaller principal amount) will be reduced. Because of their inflation adjustment feature, inflation-linked bonds typically have lower yields than conventional fixed-rate bonds. In addition, inflation-linked bonds also normally decline in price when real interest rates rise. In the event of deflation, when prices decline over time, the principal and income of inflation-linked bonds would likely decline, resulting in losses to a Fund.
In the case of Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities, also known as TIPS, repayment of original bond principal upon maturity (as adjusted for inflation) is guaranteed by the U.S. Treasury. For inflation-linked bonds that do not provide a similar guarantee, the adjusted principal value of the inflation-linked bond repaid at maturity may be less than the original principal. Inflation-linked bonds may also be issued by, or related to, sovereign governments of other developed countries, emerging market countries, or companies or other entities not affiliated with governments.
Municipal Obligations
The Funds, with the exception of the INTECH Funds, may invest in municipal obligations issued by states, territories, and possessions of the United States and the District of Columbia. The municipal obligations which a Fund may purchase include general obligation bonds and limited obligation bonds (or revenue bonds) and private activity bonds. In addition, a Fund may invest in securities issued by entities whose underlying assets are municipal bonds. General obligation bonds are obligations involving the credit of an issuer possessing taxing power and are payable from such issuer’s general revenues and not from any particular source. Limited obligation bonds are payable only from the revenues derived from a particular facility or class of facilities or, in some cases, from the proceeds of a special excise or other specific revenue source. Tax-exempt private activity bonds generally are also revenue bonds and thus are not payable from the issuer’s general revenues.
The value of municipal obligations can be affected by changes in their actual or perceived credit quality. The credit quality of municipal obligations can be affected by, among other things, the financial condition of the issuer or guarantor, the issuer’s future borrowing plans and sources of revenue, the economic feasibility of the revenue bond project or general borrowing purpose, political or economic developments in the region where the security is issued, and the liquidity of the security. Because municipal securities are generally traded over-the-counter, the liquidity of a particular issue often depends on the willingness of dealers to make a market in the security. The liquidity of some municipal obligations may be enhanced by demand features, which would enable a Fund to demand payment on short notice from the issuer or a financial intermediary.
20 |
A Fund may invest in longer-term municipal obligations that give the investor the right to “put” or sell the security at par (face value) within a specified number of days following the investor’s request - usually one to seven days. This demand feature enhances a security’s liquidity by shortening its effective maturity and enables it to trade at a price equal to or very close to par. If a demand feature terminates prior to being exercised, a Fund would hold the longer-term security, which could experience substantially more volatility.
Other Income-Producing Securities
Other types of income-producing securities that the Funds, with the exception of the INTECH Funds, may purchase include, but are not limited to, the following types of securities:
Inverse floaters. Inverse floaters are debt instruments whose interest bears an inverse relationship to the interest rate on another security. No Fund will invest more than 5% of its assets in inverse floaters. Similar to variable and floating rate obligations, effective use of inverse floaters requires skills different from those needed to select most portfolio securities. If movements in interest rates are incorrectly anticipated, a Fund could lose money, or its NAV could decline by the use of inverse floaters.
When-Issued, Delayed Delivery and Forward Commitment Transactions. A Fund may purchase or sell securities on a when-issued, delayed delivery, or forward commitment basis. When such purchases are outstanding, a Fund will segregate or “earmark” liquid assets in an amount sufficient to meet the purchase price. Typically, no income accrues on securities a Fund has committed to purchase prior to the time delivery of the securities is made, although a Fund may earn income on securities it has segregated or “earmarked.”
When purchasing a security on a when-issued, delayed delivery, or forward commitment basis, a Fund assumes the rights and risks of ownership of the security, including the risk of price and yield fluctuations, and takes such fluctuations into account when determining its net asset value. Because a Fund is not required to pay for the security until the delivery date, these risks are in addition to the risks associated with a Fund’s other investments. If the other party to a transaction fails to deliver the securities, a Fund could miss a favorable price or yield opportunity. If a Fund remains substantially fully invested at a time when when-issued, delayed delivery, or forward commitment purchases are outstanding, the purchases may result in a form of leverage.
When a Fund has sold a security on a when-issued, delayed delivery, or forward commitment basis, a Fund does not participate in future gains or losses with respect to the security. If the other party to a transaction fails to pay for the securities, a Fund could suffer a loss. Additionally, when selling a security on a when-issued, delayed delivery, or forward commitment basis without owning the security, a Fund will incur a loss if the security’s price appreciates in value such that the security’s price is above the agreed upon price on the settlement date.
A Fund may dispose of or renegotiate a transaction after it is entered into, and may purchase or sell when-issued, delayed delivery or forward commitment securities before the settlement date, which may result in a gain or loss.
Standby commitments. Standby commitments are the rights to sell a specified underlying security or securities within a specified period of time and at an exercise price equal to the amortized cost of the underlying security or securities plus accrued interest, if any, at the time of exercise, that may be sold, transferred, or assigned only with the underlying security or securities. A standby commitment entitles the holder to receive same day settlement and will be considered to be from the party to whom the investment company will look for payment of the exercise price.
Strip bonds. Strip bonds are debt securities that are stripped of their interest (usually by a financial intermediary) after the securities are issued. The market value of these securities generally fluctuates more in response to changes in interest rates than interest-paying securities of comparable maturity.
Tender option bonds. Tender option bonds are relatively long-term bonds that are coupled with the option to tender the securities to a bank, broker-dealer, or other financial institution at periodic intervals and receive the face value of the bonds. This investment structure is commonly used as a means of enhancing a security’s liquidity.
The Funds will purchase standby commitments, tender option bonds, and instruments with demand features primarily for the purpose of increasing the liquidity of their portfolio holdings.
Variable and floating rate obligations. These types of securities have variable or floating rates of interest and, under certain limited circumstances, may have varying principal amounts. Variable and floating rate securities pay interest at rates that are adjusted periodically according to a specified formula, usually with reference to some interest rate index or market interest rate (the “underlying index”). The floating rate tends to decrease the security’s price sensitivity to changes in interest rates.
21 |
These types of securities are relatively long-term instruments that often carry demand features permitting the holder to demand payment of principal at any time or at specified intervals prior to maturity.
In order to most effectively use these investments, the portfolio managers and/or investment personnel must correctly assess probable movements in interest rates. This involves different skills than those used to select most portfolio securities. If the portfolio managers and/or investment personnel incorrectly forecast such movements, a Fund could be adversely affected by the use of variable or floating rate obligations.
Real Estate Investment Trusts (“REITs”) and Real Estate-Linked Derivatives
Within the parameters of its specific investment policies, each Fund may invest in REITs, which are sometimes informally characterized as equity REITs, mortgage REITs, and hybrid REITs. In addition, a Fund may gain exposure to the real estate sector by investing in real estate-linked derivatives and common, preferred and convertible securities of issuers in real estate-related industries. Investments in REITs and real estate-linked derivatives are subject to risks similar to those associated with direct ownership of real estate, including loss to casualty or condemnation, increases in property taxes and operating expenses, zoning law amendments, changes in interest rates, overbuilding and increased competition, variations in market value, fluctuations in rental income, possible environmental liabilities, regulatory limitations on rent, and other risks related to local or general economic conditions. Equity REITs generally experience these risks directly through fee or leasehold interests, whereas mortgage REITs generally experience these risks indirectly through mortgage interests, unless the mortgage REIT forecloses on the underlying real estate. Changes in interest rates may also affect the value of a Fund’s investment in REITs. For instance, during periods of declining interest rates, certain mortgage REITs may hold mortgages that the mortgagors elect to prepay, and prepayment may diminish the yield on securities issued by those REITs.
Certain REITs have relatively small market capitalizations, which may tend to increase the volatility of the market price of their securities. Furthermore, REITs are dependent upon specialized management skills, have limited diversification and are, therefore, subject to risks inherent in operating and financing a limited number of projects. REITs are also subject to heavy cash flow dependency, defaults by borrowers, and the possibility of failing to qualify for tax-free pass-through of income under the Internal Revenue Code and to maintain exemption from the registration requirements of the 1940 Act. By investing in REITs indirectly through a Fund, a shareholder will bear not only his or her proportionate share of the expenses of a Fund, but also, indirectly, similar expenses of the REITs. In addition, REITs depend generally on their ability to generate cash flow to make distributions to shareholders.
Repurchase and Reverse Repurchase Agreements
In a repurchase agreement, a Fund purchases an equity or fixed-income security and simultaneously commits to resell that security to the seller at an agreed upon price on an agreed upon date within a number of days (usually not more than seven) from the date of purchase. The resale price consists of the purchase price plus an agreed upon incremental amount that is unrelated to the coupon rate or maturity of the purchased security. A repurchase agreement involves the obligation of the seller to pay the agreed upon price, which obligation is in effect secured by the value (at least equal to the amount of the agreed upon resale price and marked-to-market daily) of the underlying security or “collateral.” A risk associated with repurchase agreements is the failure of the seller to repurchase the securities as agreed, which may cause a Fund to suffer a loss if the market value of such securities declines before they can be liquidated on the open market. In the event of bankruptcy or insolvency of the seller, a Fund may encounter delays and incur costs in liquidating the underlying security. In addition, the collateral received in the repurchase transaction may become worthless. To the extent a Fund’s collateral focuses in one or more sectors, such as banks and financial services, the Fund is subject to increased risk as a result of that exposure. Repurchase agreements that mature in more than seven days are subject to the 15% limit on illiquid investments. While it is not possible to eliminate all risks from these transactions, it is the policy of the Funds to limit repurchase agreements to those parties whose creditworthiness has been reviewed and found satisfactory by Janus Capital. There is no guarantee that Janus Capital’s analysis of the creditworthiness of the counterparty will be accurate, and the underlying collateral involved in the transaction can expose a Fund to additional risk regardless of the creditworthiness of the parties involved in the transaction.
Reverse repurchase agreements are transactions in which a Fund sells an equity or fixed-income security and simultaneously commits to repurchase that security from the buyer, such as a bank or broker-dealer, at an agreed upon price on an agreed upon future date. The resale price in a reverse repurchase agreement reflects a market rate of interest that is not related to the coupon rate or maturity of the sold security. For certain demand agreements, there is no agreed upon repurchase date and interest payments are calculated daily, often based upon the prevailing overnight repurchase rate. The Funds will use the proceeds of reverse repurchase agreements only to satisfy unusually heavy redemption requests or for other temporary or
22 |
emergency purposes without the necessity of selling portfolio securities, or to earn additional income on portfolio securities, such as Treasury bills or notes, or as part of an inflation-related investment strategy.
Generally, a reverse repurchase agreement enables a Fund to recover for the term of the reverse repurchase agreement all or most of the cash invested in the portfolio securities sold and to keep the interest income associated with those portfolio securities. Such transactions are only advantageous if the interest cost to a Fund of the reverse repurchase transaction is less than the cost of obtaining the cash otherwise. In addition, interest costs on the money received in a reverse repurchase agreement may exceed the return received on the investments made by a Fund with those monies. Using reverse repurchase agreements to earn additional income involves the risk that the interest earned on the invested proceeds is less than the expense of the reverse repurchase agreement transaction. This technique may also have a leveraging effect on a Fund’s portfolio, although a Fund’s intent to segregate assets in the amount of the reverse repurchase agreement minimizes this effect. While a reverse repurchase agreement is outstanding, a Fund will maintain cash and appropriate liquid assets in a segregated custodial account to cover its obligation under the agreement. A Fund will enter into reverse repurchase agreements only with parties that Janus Capital deems creditworthy. A Fund will limit its investments in reverse repurchase agreements to one-third or less of its total assets.
Mortgage Dollar Rolls
Certain Funds, particularly the Fixed-Income Funds, may enter into “mortgage dollar rolls,” which are similar to reverse repurchase agreements in certain respects. In a “mortgage dollar roll” transaction, a Fund sells a mortgage-related security (such as a Ginnie Mae security) to a dealer and simultaneously agrees to repurchase a similar security (but not the same security) in the future at a predetermined price. A “dollar roll” can be viewed, like a reverse repurchase agreement, as a collateralized borrowing in which a Fund pledges a mortgage-related security to a dealer to obtain cash. Unlike in the case of reverse repurchase agreements, the dealer with which a Fund enters into a dollar roll transaction is not obligated to return the same securities as those originally sold by the Fund, but only securities which are “substantially identical.” To be considered “substantially identical,” the securities returned to a Fund generally must: (i) be collateralized by the same types of underlying mortgages; (ii) be issued by the same agency and be part of the same program; (iii) have a similar original stated maturity; (iv) have identical net coupon rates; (v) have similar market yields (and, therefore, price); and (vi) satisfy “good delivery” requirements, meaning that the aggregate principal amounts of the securities delivered and received back must be within 2.5% of the initial amount delivered.
A Fund’s obligations under a dollar roll agreement must be covered by cash, U.S. Government securities, or other liquid high grade debt obligations equal in value to the securities subject to repurchase by a Fund, and segregated in accordance with 1940 Act requirements. To the extent that the Fund collateralizes its obligations under a dollar roll agreement, the asset coverage requirements of the 1940 Act will not apply to such transactions. Furthermore, under certain circumstances, an underlying mortgage-backed security that is part of a dollar roll transaction may be considered illiquid. During the roll period, a Fund foregoes principal and interest paid on the mortgage-backed security. A Fund is compensated by the difference between the current sale price and the lower forward purchase price, often referred to as the “drop,” as well as the interest earned on the cash proceeds of the initial sale.
Successful use of mortgage dollar rolls depends on a Fund’s ability to predict interest rates and mortgage payments. Dollar roll transactions involve the risk that the market value of the securities a Fund is required to purchase may decline below the agreed upon repurchase price.
Loans
Certain Funds may invest in various commercial loans, including bank loans, bridge loans, debtor-in-possession (“DIP”) loans, mezzanine loans, and other fixed and floating rate loans. Commercial loans will comprise no more than 20% of each of the Fixed-Income Funds’ and Perkins Value Plus Income Fund’s total assets. The loans in which a Fund may invest may be denominated in U.S. or non-U.S. currencies, including the euro. Some of a Fund’s bank loan investments may be deemed illiquid and therefore would be subject to the Fund’s limit of investing up to 15% of its net assets in illiquid securities, when combined with the Fund’s other illiquid investments.
Bank Loans. Bank loans are obligations of companies or other entities that are typically issued in connection with recapitalizations, acquisitions, and refinancings, and may be offered on a public or private basis. These investments may include institutionally-traded floating and fixed-rate debt securities. Bank loans often involve borrowers with low credit ratings whose financial conditions are troubled or uncertain, including companies that are highly leveraged and may be distressed or involved in bankruptcy proceedings. The Funds generally invest in bank loans directly through an agent, either by assignment from another holder of the loan or as a participation interest in another holder’s portion of the loan. A Fund
23 |
may also purchase interests and/or servicing or similar rights in such loans. Assignments and participations involve credit risk, interest rate risk, and liquidity risk. To the extent a Fund invests in non-U.S. bank loan investments, those investments are subject to the risks of foreign investment, including Eurozone risk. Some bank loans may be purchased on a “when-issued” basis.
When a Fund purchases an assignment, the Fund generally assumes all the rights and obligations under the loan agreement and will generally become a “lender” for purposes of the particular loan agreement. The rights and obligations acquired by a Fund under an assignment may be different, and be more limited, than those held by an assigning lender. Subject to the terms of a loan agreement, a Fund may enforce compliance by a borrower with the terms of the loan agreement and may have rights with respect to any funds acquired by other lenders through set-off. If a loan is foreclosed, a Fund may become part owner of any collateral securing the loan and may bear the costs and liabilities associated with owning and disposing of any collateral. A Fund could be held liable as a co-lender. In addition, there is no assurance that the liquidation of collateral from a secured loan would satisfy the borrower’s obligations or that the collateral could be liquidated.
If a Fund purchases a participation interest, it typically will have a contractual relationship with the lender and not with the borrower. A Fund may only be able to enforce its rights through the lender and may assume the credit risk of both the borrower and the lender, or any other intermediate participant. A Fund may have the right to receive payments of principal, interest, and any fees to which it is entitled only from the lender and only upon receipt by the lender of the payments from the borrower. The failure by a Fund to receive scheduled interest or principal payments may adversely affect the income of the Fund and may likely reduce the value of its assets, which would be reflected by a reduction in the Fund’s NAV.
The borrower of a loan in which a Fund holds an assignment or participation interest may, either at its own election or pursuant to the terms of the loan documentation, prepay amounts of the loan from time to time. There is no assurance that a Fund will be able to reinvest the proceeds of any loan prepayment at the same interest rate or on the same terms as those of the original loan participation. This may result in a Fund realizing less income on a particular investment and replacing the loan with a less attractive security, which may provide less return to the Fund.
Bank Obligations. Bank obligations in which the Funds may invest include certificates of deposit, bankers’ acceptances, and fixed time deposits. Certificates of deposit are negotiable certificates issued against funds deposited in a commercial bank for a definite period of time and earning a specified return. Bankers’ acceptances are negotiable drafts or bills of exchange, normally drawn by an importer or exporter to pay for specific merchandise, which are “accepted” by a bank, meaning, in effect, that the bank unconditionally agrees to pay the face value of the instrument on maturity. Fixed time deposits are bank obligations payable at a stated maturity date and bearing interest at a fixed rate. Fixed time deposits may be withdrawn on demand by the investor, but may be subject to early withdrawal penalties which vary depending upon market conditions and the remaining maturity of the obligation. There are no contractual restrictions on the right to transfer a beneficial interest in a fixed time deposit to a third party, although there is no market for such deposits.
Floating Rate Loans. A Fund may invest in secured and unsecured floating rate loans. Floating rate loans typically are negotiated, structured, and originated by a bank or other financial institution (an “agent”) for a lending group or “syndicate” of financial institutions. In most cases, a Fund relies on the agent to assert appropriate creditor remedies against the borrower. The agent may not have the same interests as the Fund, and the agent may determine to waive certain covenants contained in the loan agreement that the Fund would not otherwise have determined to waive. The typical practice of an agent relying on reports from a borrower about its financial condition may involve a risk of fraud by a borrower. In addition, if an agent becomes insolvent or carries out its duties improperly, the Fund may experience delays in realizing payment and/or risk loss of principal and/or income on its floating rate loan investments. The investment team performs a credit analysis on the borrower but typically does not perform a credit analysis on the agent or other intermediate participants.
Floating rate loans have interest rates that adjust periodically and are tied to a benchmark lending rate such as the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”). LIBOR is a short-term interest rate that banks charge one another and is generally representative of the most competitive and current cash rates. In other cases, the lending rate could be tied to the prime rate offered by one or more major U.S. banks (“Prime Rate”) or the rate paid on large certificates of deposit traded in the secondary markets (“CD rate”). The interest rate on Prime Rate based loans and corporate debt securities may float daily as the Prime Rate changes, while the interest rate on LIBOR or CD rate based loans and corporate debt securities may reset periodically. If the benchmark lending rate changes, the rate payable to lenders under the loan will change at the next scheduled adjustment date specified in the loan agreement. Investing in floating rate loans with longer interest rate reset periods may increase fluctuations in a Fund’s NAV as a result of changes in interest rates. A Fund may attempt to hedge against interest rate fluctuations by entering into interest rate swaps or by using other hedging techniques.
24 |
While the Funds generally expect to invest in fully funded term loans, certain of the loans in which the Funds may invest may not be fully funded at the time of investment. These types of loans include revolving loans, bridge loans, DIP loans, delayed funding loans, and delayed draw term loans. Such loans generally obligate the lender (and those with an interest in the loan) to fund the loan at the borrower’s discretion. As such, a Fund would need to maintain assets sufficient to meet its contractual obligations. In cases where a Fund invests in revolving loans, bridge loans, DIP loans, delayed funding loans, or delayed draw term loans, the Fund will maintain high-quality liquid assets in an amount at least equal to its obligations under the loans. Amounts maintained in high-quality liquid assets may provide less return to a Fund than investments in floating rate loans or other investments. Loans involving revolving credit facilities, bridge financing, DIP loans, delayed funding loans, or delayed draw terms may require a Fund to increase its investment in a particular floating rate loan when it otherwise would not have done so. Further, a Fund may be obligated to do so even if it may be unlikely that the borrower will repay amounts due.
Purchasers of floating rate loans may pay and/or receive certain fees. The Funds may receive fees such as covenant waiver fees or prepayment penalty fees. A Fund may pay fees such as facility fees. Such fees may affect the Fund’s return.
The secondary market on which floating rate loans are traded may be less liquid than the market for investment grade securities or other types of income-producing securities, which may have an adverse impact on their market price. There is also a potential that there is no active market to trade floating rate loans and that there may be restrictions on their transfer. As a result, a Fund may be unable to sell assignments or participations at the desired time or may be able to sell only at a price less than fair market value. The secondary market may also be subject to irregular trading activity, wide price spreads, and extended trade settlement periods. With respect to below-investment grade or unrated securities, it also may be more difficult to value the securities because valuation may require more research, and elements of judgment may play a larger role in the valuation because there is less reliable, objective data available.
Other Securities. The Funds, particularly the Fixed-Income Funds and Perkins Value Plus Income Fund, may invest in other types of securities including, but not limited to, subordinated or junior debt, mezzanine loans secured by the stock of the company that owns the assets, corporate debt securities (corporate bonds, debentures, notes and other similar corporate debt instruments), U.S. Government securities, mortgage-backed and other asset-backed securities, repurchase agreements, certain money market instruments, high-risk/high-yield bonds, and other instruments (including synthetic or hybrid) that pay interest at rates that adjust whenever a specified interest rate changes and/or resets on predetermined dates.
Confidential Information. With respect to certain loan transactions, including but not limited to private placements, the Funds may determine not to receive confidential information. Such a decision may place a Fund at a disadvantage relative to other investors in loans who determine to receive confidential information, as the Fund may be limited in its available investments or unable to make accurate assessments related to certain investments.
In cases where Janus Capital receives material, nonpublic information about the issuers of loans that may be held in a Fund’s holdings, Janus Capital’s ability to trade in these loans for the account of a Fund could potentially be limited by its possession of such information, to the extent required by applicable law. Such limitations on the ability to trade in the loans and/or other securities of the issuer could have an adverse effect on a Fund by, for example, preventing the Fund from selling a loan that is experiencing a material decline in value. In some instances, these trading restrictions could continue in effect for a substantial period of time.
In addition, because a Fund becomes a creditor of an issuer when holding a bond, Janus Capital may from time to time participate on creditor committees on behalf of the Funds. These are committees formed by creditors to negotiate with management of the issuer and are intended to protect the rights of bondholders in the event of bankruptcy, bond covenant default, or other issuer-related financial problems. Participation on creditor committees may expose Janus Capital or a Fund to material non-public information of the issuer, restricting such Fund’s ability to trade in or acquire additional positions in a particular security or other securities of the issuer when it might otherwise desire to do so. Participation on creditor committees may also expose the Funds to federal bankruptcy laws or other laws governing rights of debtors and creditors. Additionally, such participation may subject the Funds to expenses such as legal fees. Janus Capital will only participate on creditor committees on behalf of a Fund when it believes such participation is necessary or desirable to protect the value of portfolio securities or enforce a Fund’s rights as a creditor.
High-Yield/High-Risk Bonds
Within the parameters of its specific investment policies, each Fund may invest in bonds that are rated below investment grade (i.e., bonds rated BB+ or lower by Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services and Fitch, Inc., or Ba or lower by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc.). Janus High-Yield Fund may invest without limit in such bonds. Janus Real Return Fund may invest
25 |
up to 90% of its net assets in such bonds. To the extent the other Funds invest in high-yield/high-risk bonds, under normal circumstances, each Fund will limit its investments in such bonds as indicated: 65% or less of its net assets (Janus Multi-Sector Income Fund), 35% or less of its net assets (Janus Flexible Bond Fund, Janus Global Bond Fund, Janus Short-Term Bond Fund, and Perkins Select Value Fund), 20% or less of its net assets (Perkins Large Cap Value Fund, Perkins Mid Cap Value Fund, and Perkins Small Cap Value Fund), or 50% or less of the fixed-income portion of its net assets (Perkins Value Plus Income Fund). The INTECH Funds do not intend to invest in high-yield/high-risk bonds.
Lower rated bonds involve a higher degree of credit risk, which is the risk that the issuer will not make interest or principal payments when due. In the event of an unanticipated default, a Fund would experience a reduction in its income, and could expect a decline in the market value of the bonds so affected.
A Fund may also invest in unrated bonds of foreign and domestic issuers. For the Funds subject to such limit, unrated bonds will be included in each Fund’s limit, as applicable, on investments in bonds rated below investment grade unless its portfolio managers and/or investment personnel deem such securities to be the equivalent of investment grade bonds. Unrated bonds, while not necessarily of lower quality than rated bonds, may not have as broad a market. Because of the size and perceived demand of the issue, among other factors, certain municipalities may not incur the costs of obtaining a rating. A Fund’s portfolio managers and/or investment personnel will analyze the creditworthiness of the issuer, as well as any financial institution or other party responsible for payments on the bond, in determining whether to purchase unrated municipal bonds.
The secondary market on which high-yield securities are traded is less liquid than the market for investment grade securities. The lack of a liquid secondary market may have an adverse impact on the market price of the security. Additionally, it may be more difficult to value the securities because valuation may require more research, and elements of judgment may play a larger role in the valuation because there is less reliable, objective data available.
Please refer to the “Explanation of Rating Categories” section of this SAI for a description of bond rating categories.
Defaulted Securities
A Fund may hold defaulted securities if its portfolio managers and/or investment personnel believe, based upon an analysis of the financial condition, results of operations, and economic outlook of an issuer, that there is potential for resumption of income payments and that the securities offer an unusual opportunity for capital appreciation. For the Funds subject to such limit, defaulted securities will be included in each Fund’s limit on investments in bonds rated below investment grade. Notwithstanding the portfolio managers’ and/or investment personnel’s belief about the resumption of income, however, the purchase of any security on which payment of interest or dividends is suspended involves a high degree of risk. Such risk includes, among other things, the following:
Financial and Market Risks. Investments in securities that are in default involve a high degree of financial and market risks that can result in substantial or, at times, even total losses. Issuers of defaulted securities may have substantial capital needs and may become involved in bankruptcy or reorganization proceedings. Among the problems involved in investments in such issuers is the fact that it may be difficult to obtain information about the condition of such issuers. The market prices of such securities also are subject to abrupt and erratic movements and above average price volatility, and the spread between the bid and asked prices of such securities may be greater than normally expected.
Disposition of Portfolio Securities. Although the Funds generally will purchase securities for which their portfolio managers and/or investment personnel expect an active market to be maintained, defaulted securities may be less actively traded than other securities, and it may be difficult to dispose of substantial holdings of such securities at prevailing market prices. The Funds will limit holdings of any such securities to amounts that the portfolio managers and/or investment personnel believe could be readily sold, and holdings of such securities would, in any event, be limited so as not to limit a Fund’s ability to readily dispose of securities to meet redemptions.
Other. Defaulted securities require active monitoring and may, at times, require participation in bankruptcy or receivership proceedings on behalf of the Funds.
Futures, Options, and Other Derivative Instruments
Certain Funds may invest in various types of derivatives, which may at times result in significant derivative exposure. The INTECH Funds may invest, to a limited extent, in certain types of derivatives to gain exposure to the stock market pending investment of cash balances or to meet liquidity needs. A derivative is a financial instrument whose performance is derived from the performance of another asset. The Funds may invest in derivative instruments including, but not limited to: futures
26 |
contracts, put options, call options, options on futures contracts, options on foreign currencies, options on recovery locks, options on security and commodity indices, swaps, forward contracts, structured investments, and other equity-linked derivatives. The Funds may also invest in long-term equity anticipation securities (“LEAPS”). LEAPS are publicly traded options contracts with expiration dates of longer than one year. The longer expiration date of LEAPS offers the opportunity for a Fund to gain exposure to prolonged price changes without having to invest in a combination of shorter-term traditional options contracts. LEAPS may be purchased for individual stocks or for equity indices.
A Fund may use derivative instruments for hedging purposes (to offset risks associated with an investment, currency exposure, or market conditions), to adjust currency exposure relative to a benchmark index, or for speculative (to earn income and seek to enhance returns) purposes. When a Fund invests in a derivative for speculative purposes, the Fund will be fully exposed to the risks of loss of that derivative, which may sometimes be greater than the derivative’s cost. The Funds may not use any derivative to gain exposure to an asset or class of assets that they would be prohibited by their investment restrictions from purchasing directly. A Fund’s ability to use derivative instruments may also be limited by tax considerations. (See “Income Dividends, Capital Gains Distributions, and Tax Status.”)
Investments in derivatives in general are subject to market risks that may cause their prices to fluctuate over time. Investments in derivatives may not directly correlate with the price movements of the underlying instrument. As a result, the use of derivatives may expose a Fund to additional risks that it would not be subject to if it invested directly in the securities underlying those derivatives. The use of derivatives may result in larger losses or smaller gains than otherwise would be the case. Derivatives can be volatile and may involve significant risks, including:
Counterparty risk – the risk that the counterparty (the party on the other side of the transaction) on a derivative transaction will be unable to honor its financial obligation to the Fund.
Currency risk – the risk that changes in the exchange rate between currencies will adversely affect the value (in U.S. dollar terms) of an investment.
Leverage risk – the risk associated with certain types of leveraged investments or trading strategies pursuant to which relatively small market movements may result in large changes in the value of an investment. A Fund creates leverage by investing in instruments, including derivatives, where the investment loss can exceed the original amount invested. Certain investments or trading strategies, such as short sales, that involve leverage can result in losses that greatly exceed the amount originally invested.
Liquidity risk – the risk that certain securities may be difficult or impossible to sell at the time that the seller would like or at the price that the seller believes the security is currently worth.
Index risk – if the derivative is linked to the performance of an index, it will be subject to the risks associated with changes in that index. If the index changes, the Fund could receive lower interest payments or experience a reduction in the value of the derivative to below what the Fund paid. Certain indexed securities, including inverse securities (which move in an opposite direction to the index), may create leverage, to the extent that they increase or decrease in value at a rate that is a multiple of the changes in the applicable index.
Derivatives may generally be traded over-the-counter (“OTC”) or on an exchange. Derivatives traded OTC, such as options and structured notes, are agreements that are individually negotiated between parties and can be tailored to meet a purchaser’s needs. OTC derivatives are not guaranteed by a clearing agency and may be subject to increased credit risk.
In an effort to mitigate credit risk associated with derivatives traded OTC, the Funds may enter into collateral agreements with certain counterparties whereby, subject to certain minimum exposure requirements, a Fund may require the counterparty to post collateral if the Fund has a net aggregate unrealized gain on all OTC derivative contracts with a particular counterparty. There is no guarantee that counterparty exposure is reduced by using collateral and these arrangements are dependent on Janus Capital’s ability to establish and maintain appropriate systems and trading.
Futures Contracts. The Funds may enter into contracts for the purchase or sale for future delivery of equity securities, fixed-income securities, foreign currencies, commodities, and commodity-linked derivatives (to the extent permitted by the Fund and the Internal Revenue Code), or contracts based on interest rates and financial indices, including indices of U.S. Government securities, foreign government securities, commodities, and equity or fixed-income securities. U.S. futures contracts are traded on exchanges which have been designated “contract markets” by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (“CFTC”) and must be executed through a futures commission merchant (“FCM”) or brokerage firm, which are
27 |
members of a relevant contract market. Through their clearing corporations, the exchanges guarantee performance of the contracts as between the clearing members of the exchange.
The buyer or seller of a futures contract is not required to deliver or pay for the underlying instrument unless the contract is held until the delivery date. However, both the buyer and seller are required to deposit “initial margin” for the benefit of the FCM when the contract is entered into. Initial margin deposits are equal to a percentage of the contract’s value, as set by the exchange on which the contract is traded, and currently are maintained in cash or certain other liquid assets held by the Funds. Initial margin payments are similar to good faith deposits or performance bonds. Unlike margin extended by a securities broker, initial margin payments do not constitute purchasing securities on margin for purposes of a Fund’s investment limitations. If the value of either party’s position declines, that party will be required to make additional “variation margin” payments for the benefit of the FCM to settle the change in value on a daily basis. The party that has a gain may be entitled to receive all or a portion of this amount. In the event of the bankruptcy of the FCM that holds margin on behalf of a Fund, that Fund may be entitled to return of margin owed to such Fund only in proportion to the amount received by the FCM’s other customers. Janus Capital or the subadviser will attempt to minimize the risk by careful monitoring of the creditworthiness of the FCMs with which the Funds do business.
The Funds have filed notices of eligibility for exemption from the definition of the term “commodity pool operator” in accordance with Rule 4.5 of the U.S. Commodity Exchange Act, as amended (“Commodity Exchange Act”) and, therefore, the Funds are not subject to regulation as commodity pool operators under the Commodity Exchange Act. The Funds may enter into futures contracts and related options as permitted under Rule 4.5. Amendments to Rule 4.5 adopted in 2012, however, narrowed the exemption from the definition of commodity pool operator and effectively imposed additional restrictions on a Fund’s use of futures, options, and swaps. A Fund will become subject to increased CFTC regulation if the Fund invests more than a prescribed level of its assets in such instruments, or if the Fund markets itself as providing investment exposure to these instruments. If a Fund cannot meet the requirements of Rule 4.5, Janus Capital and such Fund would need to comply with certain disclosure, reporting, and recordkeeping requirements. Such additional requirements would potentially increase a Fund’s expenses, which could negatively impact a Fund’s returns. Janus Capital is registered as a commodity pool operator in connection with the operation of one or more other Janus mutual funds which do not qualify for the Rule 4.5 exemption.
Although a Fund will segregate cash and liquid assets in an amount sufficient to cover its open futures obligations, the segregated assets would be available to that Fund immediately upon closing out the futures position; however, closing out open futures positions through customary settlement procedures could take several days. Because a Fund’s cash that may otherwise be invested would be held uninvested or invested in other liquid assets so long as the futures position remains open, such Fund’s return could be diminished due to the opportunity losses of foregoing other potential investments.
The Funds may enter into futures contracts to gain exposure to the stock market or other markets pending investment of cash balances or to meet liquidity needs. A Fund may also enter into futures contracts to protect itself from fluctuations in the value of individual securities, the securities markets generally, or interest rate fluctuations, without actually buying or selling the underlying debt or equity security. For example, if the Fund anticipates an increase in the price of stocks, and it intends to purchase stocks at a later time, that Fund could enter into a futures contract to purchase a stock index as a temporary substitute for stock purchases. If an increase in the market occurs that influences the stock index as anticipated, the value of the futures contracts will increase, thereby serving as a hedge against that Fund not participating in a market advance. This technique is sometimes known as an anticipatory hedge. A Fund may also use this technique with respect to an individual company’s stock. To the extent a Fund enters into futures contracts for this purpose, the segregated assets maintained to cover such Fund’s obligations with respect to the futures contracts will consist of liquid assets from its portfolio in an amount equal to the difference between the contract price and the aggregate value of the initial and variation margin payments made by that Fund with respect to the futures contracts. Conversely, if a Fund holds stocks and seeks to protect itself from a decrease in stock prices, the Fund might sell stock index futures contracts, thereby hoping to offset the potential decline in the value of its portfolio securities by a corresponding increase in the value of the futures contract position. Similarly, if a Fund holds an individual company’s stock and expects the price of that stock to decline, the Fund may sell a futures contract on that stock in hopes of offsetting the potential decline in the company’s stock price. A Fund could protect against a decline in stock prices by selling portfolio securities and investing in money market instruments, but the use of futures contracts enables it to maintain a defensive position without having to sell portfolio securities.
With the exception of the INTECH Funds, if a Fund owns interest rate sensitive securities and the portfolio managers and/or investment personnel expect interest rates to increase, that Fund may take a short position in interest rate futures contracts. Taking such a position would have much the same effect as that Fund selling such securities in its portfolio. If interest rates
28 |
increase as anticipated, the value of the securities would decline, but the value of that Fund’s interest rate futures contract would increase, thereby keeping the NAV of that Fund from declining as much as it may have otherwise. If, on the other hand, the portfolio managers and/or investment personnel expect interest rates to decline, that Fund may take a long position in interest rate futures contracts in anticipation of later closing out the futures position and purchasing the securities. Although a Fund can accomplish similar results by buying securities with long maturities and selling securities with short maturities, given the greater liquidity of the futures market than the cash market, it may be possible to accomplish the same result more easily and more quickly by using futures contracts as an investment tool to reduce risk. If the portfolio managers’ and/or investment personnel’s view about the direction of interest rates is incorrect, that Fund may incur a loss as the result of investments in interest rate futures.
The ordinary spreads between prices in the cash and futures markets, due to differences in the nature of those markets, are subject to distortions. First, all participants in the futures market are subject to initial margin and variation margin requirements. Rather than meeting additional variation margin requirements, investors may close out futures contracts through offsetting transactions which could distort the normal price relationship between the cash and futures markets. Second, the liquidity of the futures market depends on participants entering into offsetting transactions rather than making or taking delivery of the instrument underlying a futures contract. To the extent participants decide to make or take delivery, liquidity in the futures market could be reduced and prices in the futures market distorted. Third, from the point of view of speculators, the margin deposit requirements in the futures market are less onerous than margin requirements in the securities market. Therefore, increased participation by speculators in the futures market may cause temporary price distortions. Due to the possibility of the foregoing distortions, a correct forecast of general price trends by the portfolio managers and/or investment personnel still may not result in a successful use of futures.
Futures contracts entail risks. There is no guarantee that derivative investments will benefit the Funds. A Fund’s performance could be worse than if the Fund had not used such instruments. For example, if a Fund has hedged against the effects of a possible decrease in prices of securities held in its portfolio and prices increase instead, that Fund will lose part or all of the benefit of the increased value of these securities because of offsetting losses in its futures positions. This risk may be magnified for single stock futures transactions, as the portfolio managers and/or investment personnel must predict the direction of the price of an individual stock, as opposed to securities prices generally. In addition, if a Fund has insufficient cash, it may have to sell securities from its portfolio to meet daily variation margin requirements. Those sales may be, but will not necessarily be, at increased prices which reflect the rising market and may occur at a time when the sales are disadvantageous to such Fund.
The prices of futures contracts depend primarily on the value of their underlying instruments. Because there are a limited number of types of futures contracts, it is possible that the standardized futures contracts available to a Fund will not match exactly such Fund’s current or potential investments. A Fund may buy and sell futures contracts based on underlying instruments with different characteristics from the securities in which it typically invests – for example, by hedging investments in portfolio securities with a futures contract based on a broad index of securities – which involves a risk that the futures position will not correlate precisely with the performance of such Fund’s investments.
Futures prices can also diverge from the prices of their underlying instruments, even if the underlying instruments closely correlate with a Fund’s investments, such as with a single stock futures contract. Futures prices are affected by factors such as current and anticipated short-term interest rates, changes in volatility of the underlying instruments, and the time remaining until expiration of the contract. Those factors may affect securities prices differently from futures prices. Imperfect correlations between a Fund’s investments and its futures positions also may result from differing levels of demand in the futures markets and the securities markets, from structural differences in how futures and securities are traded, and from imposition of daily price fluctuation limits for futures contracts. A Fund may buy or sell futures contracts with a greater or lesser value than the securities it wishes to hedge or is considering purchasing in order to attempt to compensate for differences in historical volatility between the futures contract and the securities, although this may not be successful in all cases. If price changes in a Fund’s futures positions are poorly correlated with its other investments, its futures positions may fail to produce desired gains or result in losses that are not offset by the gains in that Fund’s other investments.
Because futures contracts are generally settled within a day from the date they are closed out, compared with a settlement period of three days for some types of securities, the futures markets can provide superior liquidity to the securities markets. Nevertheless, there is no assurance that a liquid secondary market will exist for any particular futures contract at any particular time. In addition, futures exchanges may establish daily price fluctuation limits for futures contracts and may halt trading if a contract’s price moves upward or downward more than the limit in a given day. On volatile trading days when the price fluctuation limit is reached, it may be impossible for a Fund to enter into new positions or close out existing
29 |
positions. If the secondary market for a futures contract is not liquid because of price fluctuation limits or otherwise, a Fund may not be able to promptly liquidate unfavorable futures positions and potentially could be required to continue to hold a futures position until the delivery date, regardless of changes in its value. As a result, such Fund’s access to other assets held to cover its futures positions also could be impaired.
Options on Futures Contracts. The Funds may buy and write put and call options on futures contracts with respect to, but not limited to, interest rates, commodities, foreign currencies, and security or commodity indices. A purchased option on a future gives a Fund the right (but not the obligation) to buy or sell a futures contract at a specified price on or before a specified date. The purchase of a call option on a futures contract is similar in some respects to the purchase of a call option on an individual security. As with other option transactions, securities will be segregated to cover applicable margin or segregation requirements on open futures contracts. Depending on the pricing of the option compared to either the price of the futures contract upon which it is based or the price of the underlying instrument, ownership of the option may or may not be less risky than ownership of the futures contract or the underlying instrument. As with the purchase of futures contracts, when a Fund is not fully invested, it may buy a call option on a futures contract to hedge against a market advance.
The writing of a call option on a futures contract constitutes a partial hedge against declining prices of a security, commodity, or foreign currency which is deliverable under, or of the index comprising, the futures contract. If the futures price at the expiration of the option is below the exercise price, a Fund will retain the full amount of the option premium which provides a partial hedge against any decline that may have occurred in that Fund’s portfolio holdings. The writing of a put option on a futures contract constitutes a partial hedge against increasing prices of a security, commodity, or foreign currency which is deliverable under, or of the index comprising, the futures contract. If the futures price at the expiration of the option is higher than the exercise price, a Fund will retain the full amount of the option premium which provides a partial hedge against any increase in the price of securities which that Fund is considering buying. If a call or put option a Fund has written is exercised, such Fund will incur a loss which will be reduced by the amount of the premium it received. Depending on the degree of correlation between the change in the value of its portfolio securities and changes in the value of the futures positions, a Fund’s losses from existing options on futures may to some extent be reduced or increased by changes in the value of portfolio securities.
The purchase of a put option on a futures contract is similar in some respects to the purchase of protective put options on portfolio securities. For example, a Fund may buy a put option on a futures contract to hedge its portfolio against the risk of falling prices or rising interest rates.
The amount of risk a Fund assumes when it buys an option on a futures contract is the premium paid for the option plus related transaction costs. In addition to the correlation risks discussed above, the purchase of an option also entails the risk that changes in the value of the underlying futures contract will not be fully reflected in the value of the options bought.
Forward Contracts. A forward contract is an agreement between two parties in which one party is obligated to deliver a stated amount of a stated asset at a specified time in the future and the other party is obligated to pay a specified amount for the asset at the time of delivery. The Funds, with the exception of the INTECH Funds, may enter into forward contracts to purchase and sell government securities, equity or income securities, foreign currencies, or other financial instruments. Forward contracts generally are traded in an interbank market conducted directly between traders (usually large commercial banks) and their customers. Unlike futures contracts, which are standardized contracts, forward contracts can be specifically drawn to meet the needs of the parties that enter into them. The parties to a forward contract may agree to offset or terminate the contract before its maturity, or may hold the contract to maturity and complete the contemplated exchange.
The following discussion summarizes the Funds’ principal uses of forward foreign currency exchange contracts (“forward currency contracts”). A Fund may enter into forward currency contracts with stated contract values of up to the value of that Fund’s assets. A forward currency contract is an obligation to buy or sell an amount of a specified currency for an agreed price (which may be in U.S. dollars or a foreign currency). A Fund may invest in forward currency contracts for nonhedging purposes such as seeking to enhance return. A Fund will exchange foreign currencies for U.S. dollars and for other foreign currencies in the normal course of business and may buy and sell currencies through forward currency contracts in order to fix a price for securities it has agreed to buy or sell (“transaction hedge”). A Fund also may hedge some or all of its investments denominated in a foreign currency or exposed to foreign currency fluctuations against a decline in the value of that currency relative to the U.S. dollar by entering into forward currency contracts to sell an amount of that currency (or a proxy currency whose performance is expected to replicate or exceed the performance of that currency relative to the U.S. dollar) approximating the value of some or all of its portfolio securities denominated in or exposed to that currency (“position
30 |
hedge”) or by participating in options or futures contracts with respect to the currency. A Fund also may enter into a forward currency contract with respect to a currency where the Fund is considering the purchase or sale of investments denominated in that currency but has not yet selected the specific investments (“anticipatory hedge”). In any of these circumstances a Fund may, alternatively, enter into a forward currency contract to purchase or sell one foreign currency for a second currency that is expected to perform more favorably relative to the U.S. dollar if the portfolio managers and/or investment personnel believe there is a reasonable degree of correlation between movements in the two currencies (“cross-hedge”). In addition, certain Funds may cross-hedge their U.S. dollar exposure in order to achieve a representative weighted mix of the major currencies in their respective benchmark index and/or to cover an underweight country or region exposure in their portfolio.
These types of hedging minimize the effect of currency appreciation as well as depreciation, but do not eliminate fluctuations in the underlying U.S. dollar equivalent value of the proceeds of or rates of return on a Fund’s foreign currency denominated portfolio securities. The matching of the increase in value of a forward contract and the decline in the U.S. dollar equivalent value of the foreign currency denominated asset that is the subject of the hedge generally will not be precise. Shifting a Fund’s currency exposure from one foreign currency to another removes that Fund’s opportunity to profit from increases in the value of the original currency and involves a risk of increased losses to such Fund if the portfolio managers’ and/or investment personnel’s projection of future exchange rates is inaccurate. Proxy hedges and cross-hedges may protect against losses resulting from a decline in the hedged currency, but will cause a Fund to assume the risk of fluctuations in the value of the currency it purchases which may result in losses if the currency used to hedge does not perform similarly to the currency in which hedged securities are denominated. Unforeseen changes in currency prices may result in poorer overall performance for a Fund than if it had not entered into such contracts.
The Funds do not exchange collateral on their forward contracts with their counterparties; however, a Fund will segregate cash or high-grade securities with its custodian in an amount at all times equal to or greater than the Fund’s commitment with respect to these contracts. If the value of the securities used to cover a position or the value of segregated assets declines, a Fund will find alternative cover or segregate additional cash or other liquid assets on a daily basis so that the value of the covered and segregated assets will be equal to the amount of such Fund’s commitments with respect to such contracts. As an alternative to segregating assets, a Fund may buy call options permitting such Fund to buy the amount of foreign currency being hedged by a forward sale contract, or a Fund may buy put options permitting it to sell the amount of foreign currency subject to a forward buy contract.
While forward contracts are not currently regulated by the CFTC, the CFTC may in the future assert authority to regulate forward contracts. In such event, a Fund’s ability to utilize forward contracts may be restricted. In addition, a Fund may not always be able to enter into forward contracts at attractive prices and may be limited in its ability to use these contracts to hedge Fund assets.
Options on Foreign Currencies. The Funds, with the exception of the INTECH Funds, may buy and write options on foreign currencies either on exchanges or in the OTC market in a manner similar to that in which futures or forward contracts on foreign currencies will be utilized. For example, a decline in the U.S. dollar value of a foreign currency in which portfolio securities are denominated will reduce the U.S. dollar value of such securities, even if their value in the foreign currency remains constant. In order to protect against such diminutions in the value of portfolio securities, a Fund may buy put options on the foreign currency. If the value of the currency declines, such Fund will have the right to sell such currency for a fixed amount in U.S. dollars, thereby offsetting, in whole or in part, the adverse effect on its portfolio.
Conversely, when a rise in the U.S. dollar value of a currency in which securities to be acquired are denominated is projected, thereby increasing the cost of such securities, a Fund may buy call options on the foreign currency. The purchase of such options could offset, at least partially, the effects of the adverse movements in exchange rates. As in the case of other types of options, however, the benefit to a Fund from purchases of foreign currency options will be reduced by the amount of the premium and related transaction costs. In addition, if currency exchange rates do not move in the direction or to the extent projected, a Fund could sustain losses on transactions in foreign currency options that would require such Fund to forego a portion or all of the benefits of advantageous changes in those rates.
The Funds may also write options on foreign currencies. For example, to hedge against a potential decline in the U.S. dollar value of foreign currency denominated securities due to adverse fluctuations in exchange rates, a Fund could, instead of purchasing a put option, write a call option on the relevant currency. If the expected decline occurs, the option will most likely not be exercised, and the decline in value of portfolio securities will be offset by the amount of the premium received.
Similarly, instead of purchasing a call option to hedge against a potential increase in the U.S. dollar cost of securities to be acquired, a Fund could write a put option on the relevant currency which, if rates move in the manner projected, should
31 |
expire unexercised and allow that Fund to hedge the increased cost up to the amount of the premium. As in the case of other types of options, however, the writing of a foreign currency option will constitute only a partial hedge up to the amount of the premium. If exchange rates do not move in the expected direction, the option may be exercised, and a Fund would be required to buy or sell the underlying currency at a loss which may not be offset by the amount of the premium. Through the writing of options on foreign currencies, a Fund also may lose all or a portion of the benefits which might otherwise have been obtained from favorable movements in exchange rates.
The Funds may write covered call options on foreign currencies. A call option written on a foreign currency by a Fund is “covered” if that Fund owns the foreign currency underlying the call or has an absolute and immediate right to acquire that foreign currency without additional cash consideration (or for additional cash consideration held in a segregated account by its custodian) upon conversion or exchange of other foreign currencies held in its portfolio. A call option is also covered if a Fund has a call on the same foreign currency in the same principal amount as the call written if the exercise price of the call held: (i) is equal to or less than the exercise price of the call written or (ii) is greater than the exercise price of the call written, if the difference is maintained by such Fund in cash or other liquid assets in a segregated account with the Fund’s custodian.
The Funds also may write call options on foreign currencies for cross-hedging purposes. A call option on a foreign currency is for cross-hedging purposes if it is designed to provide a hedge against a decline due to an adverse change in the exchange rate in the U.S. dollar value of a security which a Fund owns or has the right to acquire and which is denominated in the currency underlying the option. Call options on foreign currencies which are entered into for cross-hedging purposes are not covered. However, in such circumstances, a Fund will collateralize the option by segregating cash or other liquid assets in an amount not less than the value of the underlying foreign currency in U.S. dollars marked-to-market daily.
Eurodollar Instruments. Each Fund, with the exception of the INTECH Funds, may make investments in Eurodollar instruments. Eurodollar instruments are U.S. dollar-denominated futures contracts or options thereon which are linked to the LIBOR, although foreign currency denominated instruments are available from time to time. Eurodollar futures contracts enable purchasers to obtain a fixed rate for the lending of funds and sellers to obtain a fixed rate for borrowings. A Fund might use Eurodollar futures contracts and options thereon to hedge against changes in LIBOR, to which many interest rate swaps and fixed-income instruments are linked.
Additional Risks of Options on Foreign Currencies, Forward Contracts, and Foreign Instruments. Unlike transactions entered into by the Funds in futures contracts, options on foreign currencies and forward contracts are not traded on contract markets regulated by the CFTC (with the exception of non-deliverable forwards) or (with the exception of certain foreign currency options) by the SEC. To the contrary, such instruments are traded through financial institutions acting as market-makers, although foreign currency options are also traded on certain Exchanges, such as the Philadelphia Stock Exchange and the Chicago Board Options Exchange, subject to SEC regulation.
Similarly, options on currencies may be traded over-the-counter. In an OTC trading environment, many of the protections afforded to Exchange participants will not be available. For example, there are no daily price fluctuation limits, and adverse market movements could therefore continue to an unlimited extent over a period of time. Although the buyer of an option cannot lose more than the amount of the premium plus related transaction costs, this entire amount could be lost. Moreover, an option writer and a buyer or seller of futures or forward contracts could lose amounts substantially in excess of any premium received or initial margin or collateral posted due to the potential additional margin and collateral requirements associated with such positions.
Options on foreign currencies traded on Exchanges are within the jurisdiction of the SEC, as are other securities traded on Exchanges. As a result, many of the protections provided to traders on organized Exchanges will be available with respect to such transactions. In particular, all foreign currency option positions entered into on an Exchange are cleared and guaranteed by the Options Clearing Corporation (“OCC”), thereby reducing the risk of credit default. Further, a liquid secondary market in options traded on an Exchange may be more readily available than in the OTC market, potentially permitting a Fund to liquidate open positions at a profit prior to exercise or expiration or to limit losses in the event of adverse market movements.
The purchase and sale of exchange-traded foreign currency options, however, is subject to the risks of the availability of a liquid secondary market described above, as well as the risks regarding adverse market movements, margining of options written, the nature of the foreign currency market, possible intervention by governmental authorities, and the effects of other political and economic events. In addition, exchange-traded options on foreign currencies involve certain risks not presented by the OTC market. For example, exercise and settlement of such options must be made exclusively through the OCC, which
32 |
has established banking relationships in applicable foreign countries for this purpose. As a result, the OCC may, if it determines that foreign governmental restrictions or taxes would prevent the orderly settlement of foreign currency option exercises, or would result in undue burdens on the OCC or its clearing member, impose special procedures on exercise and settlement, such as technical changes in the mechanics of delivery of currency, the fixing of dollar settlement prices, or prohibitions on exercise.
In addition, options on U.S. Government securities, futures contracts, options on futures contracts, forward contracts, and options on foreign currencies may be traded on foreign exchanges and OTC in foreign countries. Such transactions are subject to the risk of governmental actions affecting trading in or the prices of foreign currencies or securities. The value of such positions also could be adversely affected by: (i) other complex foreign political and economic factors; (ii) lesser availability than in the United States of data on which to make trading decisions; (iii) delays in a Fund’s ability to act upon economic events occurring in foreign markets during nonbusiness hours in the United States; (iv) the imposition of different exercise and settlement terms and procedures and margin requirements than in the United States; and (v) low trading volume.
Options on Securities. In an effort to increase current income and to reduce fluctuations in NAV, the Funds, with the exception of the INTECH Funds, may write covered and uncovered put and call options and buy put and call options on securities that are traded on U.S. and foreign securities exchanges and OTC. Examples of covering transactions include: (i) for a written put, selling short the underlying instrument at the same or higher price than the put’s exercise price; and (ii) for a written call, owning the underlying instrument. The Funds may write and buy options on the same types of securities that the Funds may purchase directly. The Funds may utilize American-style and European-style options. An American-style option is an option contract that can be exercised at any time between the time of purchase and the option’s expiration date. A European-style option is an option contract that can only be exercised on the option’s expiration date.
A Fund may cover its obligations on a put option by segregating cash or other liquid assets with the Fund’s custodian for a value equal to: (i) the full notional value of the put for physically settled options; or (ii) the in-the-money value of the put for cash settled options. A Fund may also cover its obligations on a put option by holding a put on the same security and in the same principal amount as the put written where the exercise price of the put held: (i) is equal to or greater than the exercise price of the put written; or (ii) is less than the exercise price of the put written if the difference is maintained by that Fund in cash or other liquid assets in a segregated account with its custodian. The premium paid by the buyer of an option will normally reflect, among other things, the relationship of the exercise price to the market price and the volatility of the underlying security, the remaining term of the option, supply and demand, and interest rates.
A Fund may cover its obligations on a call option by segregating cash or other liquid assets with the Fund’s custodian for a value equal to: (i) the current market value, marked-to-market daily, of the underlying security (but not less than the full notional value of the call) for physically settled options; or (ii) the in-the-money value of the call for cash settled options. A Fund may also cover its obligations on a written call option by (i) owning the underlying security covered by the call or having an absolute and immediate right to acquire that security without additional cash consideration (or for additional cash consideration held in a segregated account by the Fund’s custodian) upon conversion or exchange of other securities held in its portfolio; or (ii) holding a call on the same security and in the same principal amount as the call written where the exercise price of the call held: (a) is equal to or less than the exercise price of the call written; or (b) is greater than the exercise price of the call written if the difference is maintained by that Fund in cash or other liquid assets in a segregated account with its custodian.
A Fund would write a call option for hedging purposes, instead of writing a covered call option, when the premium to be received from the cross-hedge transaction would exceed that which would be received from writing a covered call option and the portfolio managers and/or investment personnel believe that writing the option would achieve the desired hedge.
The premium paid by the buyer of an option will normally reflect, among other things, the relationship of the exercise price to the market price and the volatility of the underlying security, the remaining term of the option, supply and demand, and interest rates.
The writer of an option may have no control over when the underlying securities must be sold, in the case of a call option, or bought, in the case of a put option, since with regard to certain options, the writer may be assigned an exercise notice at any time prior to the termination of the obligation. Whether or not an option expires unexercised, the writer retains the amount of the premium. This amount, of course, may, in the case of a covered call option, be offset by a decline in the market value of the underlying security during the option period. If a call option is exercised, the writer experiences a profit
33 |
or loss from the sale of the underlying security. If a put option is exercised, the writer must fulfill the obligation to buy the underlying security at the exercise price, which will usually exceed the then market value of the underlying security.
The writer of an option that wishes to terminate its obligation may effect a “closing purchase transaction.” This is accomplished by buying an option of the same series as the option previously written. The effect of the purchase is that the writer’s position will be canceled by the clearing corporation. However, a writer may not effect a closing purchase transaction after being notified of the exercise of an option. Likewise, an investor who is the holder of an option may liquidate its position by effecting a “closing sale transaction.” This is accomplished by selling an option of the same series as the option previously bought. There is no guarantee that either a closing purchase or a closing sale transaction can be effected.
In the case of a written call option, effecting a closing transaction will permit a Fund to write another call option on the underlying security with either a different exercise price or expiration date or both. In the case of a written put option, such transaction will permit a Fund to write another put option to the extent that the exercise price is secured by deposited liquid assets. Effecting a closing transaction also will permit a Fund to use the cash or proceeds from the concurrent sale of any securities subject to the option for other investments. If a Fund desires to sell a particular security from its portfolio on which it has written a call option, such Fund will effect a closing transaction prior to or concurrent with the sale of the security.
A Fund will realize a profit from a closing transaction if the price of the purchase transaction is less than the premium received from writing the option or the price received from a sale transaction is more than the premium paid to buy the option. A Fund will realize a loss from a closing transaction if the price of the purchase transaction is more than the premium received from writing the option or the price received from a sale transaction is less than the premium paid to buy the option. Because increases in the market price of a call option generally will reflect increases in the market price of the underlying security, any loss resulting from the repurchase of a call option is likely to be offset in whole or in part by appreciation of the underlying security owned by a Fund.
An option position may be closed out only where a secondary market for an option of the same series exists. If a secondary market does not exist, a Fund may not be able to effect closing transactions in particular options and that Fund would have to exercise the options in order to realize any profit. If a Fund is unable to effect a closing purchase transaction in a secondary market, it will not be able to sell the underlying security until the option expires or it delivers the underlying security upon exercise. The absence of a liquid secondary market may be due to the following: (i) insufficient trading interest in certain options; (ii) restrictions imposed by a national securities exchange (“Exchange”) on which the option is traded on opening or closing transactions or both; (iii) trading halts, suspensions, or other restrictions imposed with respect to particular classes or series of options or underlying securities; (iv) unusual or unforeseen circumstances that interrupt normal operations on an Exchange; (v) the facilities of an Exchange or of the OCC may not at all times be adequate to handle current trading volume; or (vi) one or more Exchanges could, for economic or other reasons, decide or be compelled at some future date to discontinue the trading of options (or a particular class or series of options), in which event the secondary market on that Exchange (or in that class or series of options) would cease to exist, although outstanding options on that Exchange that had been issued by the OCC as a result of trades on that Exchange would continue to be exercisable in accordance with their terms.
A Fund may write options in connection with buy-and-write transactions. In other words, a Fund may buy a security and then write a call option against that security. The exercise price of such call will depend upon the expected price movement of the underlying security. The exercise price of a call option may be below (“in-the-money”), equal to (“at-the-money”), or above (“out-of-the-money”) the current value of the underlying security at the time the option is written. Buy-and-write transactions using in-the-money call options may be used when it is expected that the price of the underlying security will remain flat or decline moderately during the option period. Buy-and-write transactions using at-the-money call options may be used when it is expected that the price of the underlying security will remain fixed or advance moderately during the option period. Buy-and-write transactions using out-of-the-money call options may be used when it is expected that the premiums received from writing the call option plus the appreciation in the market price of the underlying security up to the exercise price will be greater than the appreciation in the price of the underlying security alone. If the call options are exercised in such transactions, a Fund’s maximum gain will be the premium received by it for writing the option, adjusted upwards or downwards by the difference between that Fund’s purchase price of the security and the exercise price. If the options are not exercised and the price of the underlying security declines, the amount of such decline will be offset by the amount of premium received.
34 |
The writing of covered put options is similar in terms of risk and return characteristics to buy-and-write transactions. If the market price of the underlying security rises or otherwise is above the exercise price, the put option will expire worthless and a Fund’s gain will be limited to the premium received. If the market price of the underlying security declines or otherwise is below the exercise price, a Fund may elect to close the position or take delivery of the security at the exercise price and that Fund’s return will be the premium received from the put options minus the amount by which the market price of the security is below the exercise price.
A Fund may buy put options to hedge against a decline in the value of its portfolio. By using put options in this way, a Fund will reduce any profit it might otherwise have realized in the underlying security by the amount of the premium paid for the put option and by transaction costs.
A Fund may buy call options to hedge against an increase in the price of securities that it may buy in the future. The premium paid for the call option plus any transaction costs will reduce the benefit, if any, realized by such Fund upon exercise of the option, and, unless the price of the underlying security rises sufficiently, the option may expire worthless to that Fund.
A Fund may write straddles (combinations of put and call options on the same underlying security), which are generally a nonhedging technique used for purposes such as seeking to enhance return. Because combined options positions involve multiple trades, they result in higher transaction costs and may be more difficult to open and close out than individual options contracts. The straddle rules of the Internal Revenue Code require deferral of certain losses realized on positions of a straddle to the extent that a Fund has unrealized gains in offsetting positions at year end. The holding period of the securities comprising the straddle will be suspended until the straddle is terminated.
Options on Securities Indices. The Funds may also purchase and write exchange-listed and OTC put and call options on securities indices. A securities index measures the movement of a certain group of securities by assigning relative values to the securities. The index may fluctuate as a result of changes in the market values of the securities included in the index. Some securities index options are based on a broad market index, such as the New York Stock Exchange Composite Index, or a narrower market index such as the Standard & Poor’s 100. Indices may also be based on a particular industry, market segment, or certain currencies such as the U.S. Dollar Index or DXY Index.
Options on securities indices are similar to options on securities except that (1) the expiration cycles of securities index options are monthly, while those of securities options are currently quarterly, and (2) the delivery requirements are different. Instead of giving the right to take or make delivery of securities at a specified price, an option on a securities index gives the holder the right to receive a cash “exercise settlement amount” equal to (a) the amount, if any, by which the fixed exercise price of the option exceeds (in the case of a put) or is less than (in the case of a call) the closing value of the underlying index on the date of exercise, multiplied by (b) a fixed “index multiplier.” Receipt of this cash amount will depend upon the closing level of the securities index upon which the option is based being greater than, in the case of a call, or less than, in the case of a put, the exercise price of the index and the exercise price of the option times a specified multiple. The writer of the option is obligated, in return for the premium received, to make delivery of this amount. Securities index options may be offset by entering into closing transactions as described above for securities options.
Options on Non-U.S. Securities Indices. The Funds may purchase and write put and call options on foreign securities indices listed on domestic and foreign securities exchanges. The Funds may also purchase and write OTC options on foreign securities indices.
The Funds may, to the extent allowed by federal and state securities laws, invest in options on non-U.S. securities indices instead of investing directly in individual non-U.S. securities. The Funds may also use foreign securities index options for bona fide hedging and non-hedging purposes.
Options on securities indices entail risks in addition to the risks of options on securities. The absence of a liquid secondary market to close out options positions on securities indices may be more likely to occur, although the Funds generally will only purchase or write such an option if Janus Capital or the subadviser, as applicable, believes the option can be closed out. Use of options on securities indices also entails the risk that trading in such options may be interrupted if trading in certain securities included in the index is interrupted. The Funds will not purchase such options unless Janus Capital or the subadviser, as applicable, believes the market is sufficiently developed such that the risk of trading in such options is no greater than the risk of trading in options on securities.
Price movements in a Fund’s portfolio may not correlate precisely with movements in the level of an index and, therefore, the use of options on indices cannot serve as a complete hedge. Because options on securities indices require settlement in cash,
35 |
the portfolio managers and/or investment personnel may be forced to liquidate portfolio securities to meet settlement obligations. A Fund’s activities in index options may also be restricted by the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code for qualification as a regulated investment company.
In addition, the hours of trading for options on the securities indices may not conform to the hours during which the underlying securities are traded. To the extent that the option markets close before the markets for the underlying securities, significant price and rate movements can take place in the underlying securities markets that cannot be reflected in the option markets. It is impossible to predict the volume of trading that may exist in such options, and there can be no assurance that viable exchange markets will develop or exist.
Other Options. In addition to the option strategies described above and in the Prospectuses, a Fund, with the exception of the INTECH Funds, may purchase and sell a variety of options with non-standard payout structures or other features (“exotic options”). Exotic options are traded OTC and typically have price movements that can vary markedly from simple put or call options. The risks associated with exotic options are that they cannot be as easily priced and may be subject to liquidity risk. While some exotic options have fairly active markets others are mostly thinly traded instruments. Some options are pure two-party transactions and may have no liquidity. Each Fund may treat such instruments as illiquid and will limit its investments in such instruments to no more than 15% of its net assets, when combined with all other illiquid investments of the Fund. A Fund may use exotic options to the extent that they are consistent with the Fund’s investment objective and investment policies, and applicable regulations.
The Funds may purchase and sell exotic options that have values which are determined by the correlation of two or more underlying assets. These types of options include, but are not limited to, outperformance options, yield curve options, or other spread options.
Outperformance Option – An option that pays the holder the difference in the performance of two assets. The value of an outperformance option is based on the relative difference, i.e. the percentage outperformance of one underlying security or index compared to another. Outperformance options allow a Fund to gain leveraged exposure to the percentage price performance of one security or index over another. The holder of an outperformance option will only receive payment under the option contract if a designated underlying asset outperforms the other underlying asset. If outperformance does not occur, the holder will not receive payment. The option may expire worthless despite positive performance by the designated underlying asset. Outperformance options are typically cash settled and have European-style exercise provisions.
Yield Curve Options – An option whose value is based on the yield spread or yield differential between two securities. In contrast to other types of options, a yield curve option is based on the difference between the yields of designated securities, rather than the prices of the individual securities, and is settled through cash payments. Accordingly, a yield curve option is profitable to the holder if this differential widens (in the case of a call) or narrows (in the case of a put), regardless of whether the yields of the underlying securities increase or decrease.
Spread Option – A type of option that derives its value from the price differential between two or more assets, or the same asset at different times or places. Spread options can be written on all types of financial products including equities, bonds, and currencies.
Swaps and Swap-Related Products. The Funds, with the exception of the INTECH Funds, may enter into swap agreements or utilize swap-related products, including, but not limited to, total return swaps; equity swaps; interest rate swaps; commodity swaps; credit default swaps, including index credit default swaps (“CDXs”) and other event-linked swaps; swap agreements on security or commodity indices; swaps on exchange-traded funds; and currency swaps, caps, and floors (either on an asset-based or liability-based basis, depending upon whether it is hedging its assets or its liabilities). To the extent a Fund may invest in foreign currency-denominated securities, it also may invest in currency exchange rate swap agreements. Swap agreements are two-party contracts entered into primarily by institutional investors for periods ranging from a day to more than one year. A Fund may enter into swap agreements in an attempt to gain exposure to the stocks making up an index of securities in a market without actually purchasing those stocks, or to hedge a position. The most significant factor in the performance of swap agreements is the change in value of the specific index, security, or currency, or other factors that determine the amounts of payments due to and from a Fund. The Funds will usually enter into total return swaps and interest rate swaps on a net basis (i.e., the two payment streams are netted out, with a Fund receiving or paying, as the case may be, only the net amount of the two payments). The net amount of the excess, if any, of a Fund’s obligations over its entitlement with respect to each swap will be calculated on a daily basis, and an amount of cash or other liquid assets having an aggregate NAV at least equal to the accrued excess will be maintained in a segregated account by the Fund’s custodian. If a
36 |
Fund enters into a swap on other than a net basis, it would maintain segregated assets in the full amount accrued on a daily basis of its obligations with respect to the swap.
Swap agreements entail the risk that a party will default on its payment obligations to the Fund. If there is a default by the other party to such a transaction, a Fund normally will have contractual remedies pursuant to the agreements related to the transaction. Swap agreements also bear the risk that a Fund will not be able to meet its obligation to the counterparty. Swap agreements are typically privately negotiated and entered into in the over-the-counter market. However, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the “Dodd-Frank Act”) of 2010 now requires certain swap agreements to be cleared through a clearinghouse and traded on an exchange or swap execution facility. Swaps that are required to be cleared are required to post initial and variation margins in accordance with the exchange requirements. New regulations under the Dodd-Frank Act could, among other things, increase the cost of such transactions.
A Fund normally will not enter into any total return, equity, or interest rate swap, cap, or floor transaction unless the claims-paying ability of the other party thereto meets guidelines established by Janus Capital. Janus Capital’s guidelines may be adjusted in accordance with market conditions. Janus Capital or the subadviser, as applicable, will monitor the creditworthiness of all counterparties on an ongoing basis. Generally, parties that are rated in the highest short-term rating category by an NRSRO will meet Janus Capital’s guidelines. The ratings of NRSROs represent their opinions of the claims-paying ability of entities rated by them. NRSRO ratings are general and are not absolute standards of quality.
The swap market has grown substantially in recent years, with a large number of banks and investment banking firms acting both as principals and as agents utilizing standardized swap documentation. Janus Capital has determined that, as a result, the swap market has become relatively liquid. Caps and floors are more recent innovations for which standardized documentation has not yet been developed and, accordingly, they are less liquid than other types of swaps. To the extent a Fund sells (i.e., writes) caps and floors, it will segregate cash or other liquid assets having an aggregate NAV at least equal to the full amount, accrued on a daily basis, of its obligations with respect to any caps or floors.
There is no limit on the amount of total return, equity, or interest rate swap transactions that may be entered into by a Fund. The use of swaps is a highly specialized activity which involves investment techniques and risks different from those associated with ordinary portfolio securities transactions. Swap transactions may in some instances involve the delivery of securities or other underlying assets by a Fund or its counterparty to collateralize obligations under the swap. Under the documentation currently used in those markets, the risk of loss with respect to swaps is limited to the net amount of the payments that a Fund is contractually obligated to make. If the other party to a swap that is not collateralized defaults, a Fund would risk the loss of the net amount of the payments that it contractually is entitled to receive. A Fund may buy and sell (i.e., write) caps and floors, without limitation, subject to the segregation requirement described above. Certain swaps, such as total return swaps, may add leverage to a Fund because, in addition to its total net assets, a Fund may be subject to investment exposure on the notional amount of the swap.
Another form of a swap agreement is the credit default swap. A Fund may enter into various types of credit default swap agreements (with notional values not to exceed 10% of the net assets of the Fund), including OTC credit default swap agreements, for investment purposes and to add leverage to its portfolio. As the seller in a credit default swap contract, the Fund would be required to pay the par value (the “notional value”) (or other agreed-upon value) of a referenced debt obligation to the counterparty in the event of a default by a third party, such as a U.S. or foreign corporate issuer, on the debt obligation. In return, the Fund would receive from the counterparty a periodic stream of payments over the term of the contract provided that no event of default has occurred. If no default occurs, the Fund would keep the stream of payments and would have no payment obligations. As the seller, the Fund would effectively add leverage to its portfolio because, in addition to its total net assets, that Fund would be subject to investment exposure on the notional value of the swap. The maximum potential amount of future payments (undiscounted) that the Fund as a seller could be required to make in a credit default transaction would be the notional amount of the agreement. A Fund may also purchase credit default swap contracts in order to hedge against the risk of default of debt securities held in its portfolio, in which case the Fund would function as the counterparty referenced in the preceding paragraph. Credit default swaps could result in losses if the Fund does not correctly evaluate the creditworthiness of the company or companies on which the credit default swap is based.
Credit default swap agreements may involve greater risks than if a Fund had invested in the reference obligation directly since, in addition to risks relating to the reference obligation, credit default swaps are subject to illiquidity risk, counterparty risk, and credit risk. A Fund will generally incur a greater degree of risk when it sells a credit default swap than when it purchases a credit default swap. As a buyer of a credit default swap, the Fund may lose its investment and recover nothing should no credit event occur and the swap is held to its termination date. As seller of a credit default swap, if a credit event
37 |
were to occur, the value of any deliverable obligation received by the Fund, coupled with the upfront or periodic payments previously received, may be less than what it pays to the buyer, resulting in a loss of value to the Fund.
A Fund may invest in funded (notional value of contract paid up front) or unfunded (notional value only paid in case of default) CDXs or other similarly structured products. CDXs are designed to track segments of the credit default swap market and provide investors with exposure to specific reference baskets of issuers of bonds or loans. These instruments have the potential to allow an investor to obtain the same investment exposure as an investor who invests in an individual credit default swap, but with the potential added benefit of diversification. The CDX reference baskets are normally priced daily and rebalanced every six months in conjunction with leading market makers in the credit industry. The liquidity of the market for CDXs is normally subject to liquidity in the secured loan and credit derivatives markets.
A Fund investing in CDXs is normally only permitted to take long positions in these instruments. A Fund holding a long position in CDXs typically receives income from principal or interest paid on the underlying securities. A Fund also normally indirectly bears its proportionate share of any expenses paid by a CDX in addition to the expenses of the Fund. By investing in CDXs, a Fund could be exposed to risks relating to, among other things, the reference obligation, illiquidity risk, counterparty risk, and credit risk.
Regulations recently enacted by the CFTC under the Dodd-Frank Act require the Funds to clear certain interest rate and credit default index swaps through a clearinghouse or central counterparty (“CCP”). To clear a swap with a CCP, a Fund will submit the swap to, and post collateral with, an FCM that is a clearinghouse member. Alternatively, a Fund may enter into a swap with a financial institution other than the FCM (the “Executing Dealer”) and arrange for the swap to be transferred to the FCM for clearing. A Fund may also enter into a swap with the FCM itself. The CCP, the FCM, and the Executing Dealer are all subject to regulatory oversight by the CFTC. A default or failure by a CCP or an FCM, or the failure of a swap to be transferred from an Executing Dealer to the FCM for clearing, may expose the Funds to losses, increase their costs, or prevent the Funds from entering or exiting swap positions, accessing collateral, or fully implementing their investment strategies. The regulatory requirement to clear certain swaps could, either temporarily or permanently, reduce the liquidity of cleared swaps or increase the costs of entering into those swaps.
Options on Swap Contracts. Certain Funds may purchase or write covered and uncovered put and call options on swap contracts (“swaptions”). Swaption contracts grant the purchaser the right, but not the obligation, to enter into a swap transaction at preset terms detailed in the underlying agreement within a specified period of time. Entering into a swaption contract involves, to varying degrees, the elements of credit, market, and interest rate risk, associated with both option contracts and swap contracts.
Synthetic Equity Swaps. A Fund may enter into synthetic equity swaps, in which one party to the contract agrees to pay the other party the total return earned or realized on a particular “notional amount” of value of an underlying equity security including any dividends distributed by the underlying security. The other party to the contract makes regular payments, typically at a fixed rate or at a floating rate based on LIBOR or other variable interest rate based on the notional amount. Similar to currency swaps, synthetic equity swaps are generally entered into on a net basis, which means the two payment streams are netted out and a Fund will either pay or receive the net amount. A Fund will enter into a synthetic equity swap instead of purchasing the reference security when the synthetic equity swap provides a more efficient or less expensive way of gaining exposure to a security compared with a direct investment in the security.
Structured Investments. A structured investment is a security having a return tied to an underlying index or other security or asset class. Structured investments generally are individually negotiated agreements and may be traded over-the-counter. Structured investments are organized and operated to restructure the investment characteristics of the underlying security. This restructuring involves the deposit with or purchase by an entity, such as a corporation or trust, or specified instruments (such as commercial bank loans) and the issuance by that entity of one or more classes of securities (“structured securities”) backed by, or representing interests in, the underlying instruments. The cash flow on the underlying instruments may be apportioned among the newly issued structured securities to create securities with different investment characteristics, such as varying maturities, payment priorities, and interest rate provisions, and the extent of such payments made with respect to structured securities is dependent on the extent of the cash flow on the underlying instruments. Because structured securities typically involve no credit enhancement, their credit risk generally will be equivalent to that of the underlying instruments. Investments in structured securities are generally of a class of structured securities that is either subordinated or unsubordinated to the right of payment of another class. Subordinated structured securities typically have higher yields and present greater risks than unsubordinated structured securities. Structured securities are typically sold in private placement transactions, and there currently is no active trading market for structured securities.
38 |
Investments in government and government-related restructured debt instruments are subject to special risks, including the inability or unwillingness to repay principal and interest, requests to reschedule or restructure outstanding debt, and requests to extend additional loan amounts. Structured investments include a wide variety of instruments which are also subject to special risk such as inverse floaters and collateralized debt obligations. Inverse floaters involve leverage which may magnify a Fund’s gains or losses. The risk of collateral debt obligations depends largely on the type of collateral securing the obligations. There is a risk that the collateral will not be adequate to make interest or other payments related to the debt obligation the collateral supports.
Structured instruments that are registered under the federal securities laws may be treated as liquid. In addition, many structured instruments may not be registered under the federal securities laws. In that event, a Fund’s ability to resell such a structured instrument may be more limited than its ability to resell other Fund securities. The Funds may treat such instruments as illiquid and will limit their investments in such instruments to no more than 15% of each Fund’s net assets, when combined with all other illiquid investments of each Fund. The INTECH Funds do not intend to invest in structured investments.
PORTFOLIO TURNOVER
The portfolio turnover rate of a Fund is calculated by dividing the lesser of purchases or sales of portfolio securities (exclusive of purchases or sales of U.S. Government securities and all other securities whose maturities at the time of acquisition were one year or less) by the monthly average of the value of the portfolio securities owned by the Fund during the year. Proceeds from short sales and assets used to cover short positions undertaken are included in the amounts of securities sold and purchased, respectively, during the fiscal year. A 100% portfolio turnover rate would occur, for example, if all of the securities held by a Fund were replaced once during the fiscal year. A Fund cannot accurately predict its turnover rate. Variations in portfolio turnover rates shown may be due to market conditions, changes in the size of a Fund, fluctuating volume of shareholder purchase and redemption orders, the nature of a Fund’s investments, and the investment style and/or outlook of the portfolio managers and/or investment personnel. A Fund’s portfolio turnover rate may be higher when a Fund finds it necessary to significantly change its portfolio to adopt a temporary defensive position or respond to economic or market events. Higher levels of portfolio turnover may result in higher costs for brokerage commissions, dealer mark-ups, and other transaction costs, and may also result in taxable capital gains. Higher costs associated with increased portfolio turnover may offset gains in Fund performance. The following table summarizes the portfolio turnover rates for the Funds for the last two fiscal years, unless otherwise noted.

PORTFOLIO HOLDINGS DISCLOSURE POLICIES AND PROCEDURES
The Mutual Fund Holdings Disclosure Policies and Procedures adopted by Janus Capital and all mutual funds managed within the Janus fund complex are designed to be in the best interests of the funds and to protect the confidentiality of the funds’ portfolio holdings. The following describes policies and procedures with respect to disclosure of portfolio holdings.
• | Full Holdings. Each Fund is required to disclose its complete holdings in the quarterly holdings report on Form N-Q within 60 days of the end of the first and third fiscal quarters, and in the annual report and semiannual report to Fund shareholders. These reports (i) are available on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov; (ii) may be reviewed and copied at the SEC’s Public Reference Room in Washington, D.C. (information on the Public Reference Room may be obtained by calling 1-800-SEC-0330); and (iii) are available without charge, upon request, by calling a Janus representative at 1-800-525-0020 (toll free). With the exception of Funds subadvised by INTECH, portfolio holdings consisting of at least the names of the holdings are generally available on a calendar quarter-end basis with a 30-day lag. For the Funds subadvised by INTECH, portfolio holdings (excluding derivatives, short positions, and other investment positions) consisting of at least the names of the holdings are generally available on a calendar quarter-end basis with a 60-day lag. Holdings are generally posted approximately two business days thereafter under Full Holdings for each Fund at janus.com/info (or under each Fund’s Holdings & Details tab at janus.com/allfunds if you hold Class D Shares). |
Each Fund, with the exception of Funds subadvised by INTECH, may provide, upon request, historical full holdings on a monthly basis for periods prior to the previous quarter-end subject to a written confidentiality agreement. Funds subadvised by INTECH may provide, upon request, historical full holdings at any time subject to a written confidentiality agreement.
• | Top Holdings. Each Fund’s (with the exception of Funds subadvised by INTECH) top portfolio holdings, in order of position size and as a percentage of a Fund’s total portfolio, are available monthly with a 15-day lag and on a calendar quarter-end basis with a 15-day lag.

Full portfolio holdings will remain available on the Janus websites at least until a Form N-CSR or Form N-Q is filed with the SEC for the period that includes the date as of which the website information is current. Funds subadvised by INTECH disclose their short positions, if applicable, only to the extent required in regulatory reports. Janus Capital may exclude from publication on its websites all or any portion of portfolio holdings or change the time periods of disclosure as deemed necessary to protect the interests of the Janus funds.
The Janus funds’ Trustees, officers, and primary service providers, including investment advisers identified in this SAI, distributors, administrators, transfer agents, custodians, securities lending agents, and their respective personnel, may receive or have access to nonpublic portfolio holdings information. In addition, third parties, including but not limited to those that provide services to the Janus funds, Janus Capital, and its affiliates, such as trade execution measurement systems providers, independent pricing services, proxy voting service providers, the funds’ insurers, computer systems service providers, lenders, counsel, accountants/auditors, and rating and ranking organizations may also receive or have access to nonpublic portfolio holdings information. Other recipients of nonpublic portfolio holdings information may include, but may not be limited to, third parties such as consultants, data aggregators, and asset allocation services which calculate information derived from holdings for use by Janus Capital, and which supply their analyses (but not the holdings themselves) to their clients. Such parties, either by agreement or by virtue of their duties, are required to maintain confidentiality with respect to such nonpublic portfolio holdings. Any confidentiality agreement entered into regarding disclosure of a Janus fund’s portfolio holdings includes a provision that portfolio holdings are the confidential property of that Janus fund and may not be shared
40 |
or used directly or indirectly for any purpose (except as specifically provided in the confidentiality agreement), including trading in fund shares.
Nonpublic portfolio holdings information may be disclosed to certain third parties upon a good faith determination made by Janus Capital’s Chief Compliance Officer or Ethics Committee that a Janus fund has a legitimate business purpose for such disclosure and the recipient agrees to maintain confidentiality. Preapproval by the Chief Compliance Officer or Ethics Committee is not required for certain routine service providers and in response to regulatory, administrative, and judicial requirements. The Chief Compliance Officer reports to the Janus funds’ Trustees regarding material compliance matters with respect to the portfolio holdings disclosure policies and procedures.
Under extraordinary circumstances, Janus Capital’s Chief Investment Officer(s) or their delegates have the authority to waive one or more provisions of, or make exceptions to, the Mutual Fund Holdings Disclosure Policies and Procedures when in the best interest of the Janus funds and when such waiver or exception is consistent with federal securities laws and applicable fiduciary duties. The frequency with which portfolio holdings are disclosed, as well as the lag time associated with such disclosure, may vary as deemed appropriate under the circumstances. All waivers and exceptions involving any of the Janus funds shall be pre-approved by the Chief Compliance Officer or a designee.
To the best knowledge of the Janus funds, as of the date of this SAI, the following non-affiliated third parties, which consist of service providers and consultants as described above under ongoing arrangements with the funds and/or Janus Capital, receive or may have access to nonpublic portfolio holdings information, which may include the full holdings of a fund.

Investment adviser and subadvisers
INVESTMENT ADVISER – JANUS CAPITAL MANAGEMENT LLC
As stated in the Prospectuses, each Fund has an Investment Advisory Agreement with Janus Capital Management LLC, 151 Detroit Street, Denver, Colorado 80206-4805. Janus Capital is a direct subsidiary of Janus Capital Group Inc. (“JCGI”), a publicly traded company with principal operations in financial asset management businesses. JCGI owns approximately 95% of Janus Capital, with the remaining 5% held by Janus Management Holdings Corporation.
Each Fund’s Advisory Agreement continues in effect from year to year so long as such continuance is approved at least annually by the vote of a majority of the Funds’ Trustees who are not parties to the Advisory Agreements or “interested persons” (as defined by the 1940 Act) of any such party (the “Independent Trustees”), and by either the Funds’ Trustees or the affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of each Fund. Each Advisory Agreement: (i) may be terminated, without the payment of any penalty, by a Fund’s Trustees, or the vote of at least a majority of the outstanding voting securities of a Fund, or Janus Capital, on 60 days’ advance written notice; (ii) terminates automatically in the event of its assignment; and (iii) generally, may not be amended without the approval by vote of a majority of the Trustees of the affected Fund, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, and, to the extent required by the 1940 Act, the affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of that Fund.
Each Advisory Agreement provides that Janus Capital will furnish continuous advice and recommendations concerning the Funds’ investments, provide office space for the Funds and certain other advisory-related services. Each Fund pays custodian fees and expenses, any brokerage commissions and dealer spreads, and other expenses in connection with the execution of portfolio transactions, legal and audit expenses, interest and taxes, a portion of trade or other investment company dues and expenses, expenses of shareholders’ meetings, mailing of prospectuses, statements of additional information, and reports to shareholders, fees and expenses of all Fund Trustees, other costs of complying with applicable laws regulating the sale of Fund shares, compensation to the Funds’ transfer agent, and other costs, including shareholder servicing costs. As discussed in this section, Janus Capital has delegated certain management duties for certain Funds to INTECH and Perkins pursuant to subadvisory agreements (“Sub-Advisory Agreements”) between Janus Capital and each subadviser.
The Trust and Janus Capital have received an exemptive order from the SEC that permits Janus Capital, subject to the approval of the Trustees, to appoint or replace certain subadvisers to manage all or a portion of a Fund’s assets and enter into, amend, or terminate a subadvisory agreement with certain subadvisers without obtaining shareholder approval (a “manager-of-managers structure”). Implementation of a manager-of-managers structure, however, would need to be approved by a Fund’s shareholders. The manager-of-managers structure applies to subadvisers that are not affiliated with the Trust or Janus Capital (“non-affiliated subadvisers”), as well as any subadviser that is an indirect or direct “wholly-owned subsidiary” (as such term is defined by the 1940 Act) of Janus Capital or of another company that, indirectly or directly, wholly owns Janus Capital (collectively, “wholly-owned subadvisers”).
Pursuant to the order, Janus Capital, with the approval of the Trustees, has the discretion to terminate any subadviser and allocate and reallocate a Fund’s assets among Janus Capital and any other non-affiliated subadvisers or wholly-owned subadvisers (including terminating a non-affiliated subadviser and replacing it with a wholly-owned subadviser). Janus Capital, subject to oversight and supervision by the Trustees, has responsibility to oversee any subadviser to a Fund and to recommend for approval by the Trustees, the hiring, termination, and replacement of subadvisers for a Fund. The order also permits a Fund to disclose subadvisers’ fees only in the aggregate. In the event that Janus Capital hires a new subadviser pursuant to the manager-of-managers structure, the affected Fund would provide shareholders with information about the new subadviser and subadvisory agreement within 90 days.
Janus Capital also serves as administrator and is authorized to perform, or cause others to perform, the administration services necessary for the operation of the Funds, including, but not limited to, NAV determination, portfolio accounting, recordkeeping, blue sky registration and monitoring services, preparation of prospectuses and other Fund documents, and other services for which the Funds reimburse Janus Capital for its out-of-pocket costs. Each Fund also pays for the salaries, fees, and expenses of certain Janus Capital employees and Fund officers, with respect to certain specified administration functions they perform on behalf of the Funds. Administration costs are separate and apart from advisory fees and other expenses paid in connection with the investment advisory services Janus Capital (or any subadviser) provides to each Fund. Some expenses related to compensation payable to the Funds’ Chief Compliance Officer and compliance staff are shared with the Funds.
Many of these costs vary from year to year which can make it difficult to predict the total impact to your Fund’s expense ratio, in particular during times of declining asset values of a Fund. Certain costs may be waived and/or reimbursed by Janus Capital to the Funds pursuant to expense limitation agreements with a Fund.

A discussion regarding the basis for the Trustees’ approval of the Funds’ Investment Advisory Agreements and Sub-Advisory Agreements (as applicable) is included in the Funds’ annual or semiannual report to shareholders. You can request the Funds’ annual or semiannual reports (as they become available), free of charge, by contacting your plan sponsor, broker-dealer, or financial intermediary, or by contacting a Janus representative at 1-877-335-2687 (or 1-800-525-3713 if you hold Class D Shares). The reports are also available, free of charge, at janus.com/info (or janus.com/reports if you hold Class D Shares).
The Funds pay a monthly investment advisory fee to Janus Capital for its services. The fee is based on the average daily net assets of each Fund for Funds with an annual fixed-rate fee, and is calculated at the annual rate. The detail for Funds with this fee structure is shown below under “Average Daily Net Assets of the Fund.” Funds that pay a fee that may adjust up or down based on the Fund’s performance relative to its benchmark index over the performance measurement period have “N/A” in the “Average Daily Net Assets of the Fund” column below. The following table also reflects the Funds’ contractual fixed-rate investment advisory fee rate for Funds with an annual fee based on average daily net assets and the “base fee” rate prior to any performance fee adjustment for Funds that have a performance fee structure.

Under the performance-based fee structure, the investment advisory fee paid to Janus Capital by each Fund consists of two components: (1) a base fee calculated by applying the contractual fixed rate of the advisory fee to the Fund’s average daily net assets during the previous month (“Base Fee Rate”), plus or minus (2) a performance-fee adjustment (“Performance Adjustment”) calculated by applying a variable rate of up to 0.15% (positive or negative) to the Fund’s average daily net assets during the applicable performance measurement period. The performance measurement period generally is the previous 36 months, although no Performance Adjustment will be made until the performance-based fee structure has been in effect for at least 12 months; accordingly, only the Fund’s Base Fee Rate applies for the initial 12 months. When the performance-based fee structure has been in effect for at least 12 months, but less than 36 months, the performance measurement period will be equal to the time that has elapsed since the performance-based fee structure took effect. The Base Fee Rate is calculated and accrued daily. The Performance Adjustment is calculated monthly in arrears and is accrued throughout the month. The investment advisory fee is paid monthly in arrears.
The Performance Adjustment may result in an increase or decrease in the investment advisory fee paid by a Fund, depending upon the investment performance of the Fund relative to its benchmark index over the performance measurement period. No Performance Adjustment is applied unless the difference between the Fund’s investment performance and the cumulative investment record of the Fund’s benchmark index is 0.50% or greater (positive or negative) during the applicable performance measurement period. The Base Fee Rate is subject to an upward or downward Performance Adjustment for every full 0.50% increment by which the Fund outperforms or underperforms its benchmark index. Because the Performance Adjustment is tied to a Fund’s performance relative to its benchmark index (and not its absolute performance), the Performance Adjustment could increase Janus Capital’s fee even if the Fund’s shares lose value during the performance measurement period and could decrease Janus Capital’s fee even if the Fund’s shares increase in value during the performance measurement period. For purposes of computing the Base Fee Rate and the Performance Adjustment, net assets are averaged over different periods (average daily net assets during the previous month for the Base Fee Rate versus average daily net assets during the performance measurement period for the Performance Adjustment). Performance of a Fund is calculated net of expenses, whereas a Fund’s benchmark index does not have any fees or expenses. Reinvestment of dividends and distributions is included in calculating both the performance of a Fund and the Fund’s benchmark index. Under extreme circumstances involving underperformance by a rapidly shrinking Fund, the dollar amount of the Performance Adjustment could be more than the dollar amount of the Base Fee Rate. In such circumstances, Janus Capital would reimburse the applicable Fund.
The application of an expense limit, if any, will have a positive effect upon a Fund’s performance and may result in an increase in the Performance Adjustment. It is possible that the cumulative dollar amount of additional compensation ultimately payable to Janus Capital may, under some circumstances, exceed the cumulative dollar amount of management fees waived by Janus Capital.
The investment performance of a Fund’s Class A Shares (waiving the upfront sales load) for the performance measurement period is used to calculate the Performance Adjustment. After Janus Capital determines whether a particular Fund’s performance was above or below its benchmark index by comparing the investment performance of the Fund’s load-waived
46 |
Class A Shares against the cumulative investment record of that Fund’s benchmark index, Janus Capital applies the same Performance Adjustment (positive or negative) across each other class of shares of the Fund.
The Trustees may determine that a class of shares of a Fund other than Class A Shares is the most appropriate for use in calculating the Performance Adjustment. If a different class of shares is substituted in calculating the Performance Adjustment, the use of that successor class of shares may apply to the entire performance measurement period so long as the successor class was outstanding at the beginning of such period. If the successor class of shares was not outstanding for all or a portion of the performance measurement period, it may only be used in calculating that portion of the Performance Adjustment attributable to the period during which the successor class was outstanding, and any prior portion of the performance measurement period would be calculated using the class of shares previously designated. Any change to the class of shares used to calculate the Performance Adjustment is subject to applicable law.
The Trustees may from time to time determine that another securities index for a Fund is a more appropriate benchmark index for purposes of evaluating the performance of that Fund. In that event, the Trustees may approve the substitution of a successor index for the Fund’s benchmark index. However, the calculation of the Performance Adjustment for any portion of the performance measurement period prior to the adoption of the successor index will still be based upon the Fund’s performance compared to its former benchmark index. Any change to a particular Fund’s benchmark index for purposes of calculating the Performance Adjustment is subject to applicable law. It is currently the position of the staff of the SEC (the “Staff”) that, with respect to Funds that charge a performance fee, changing a Fund’s benchmark index used to calculate the performance fee will require shareholder approval. If there is a change in the Staff’s position, the Trustees intend to notify shareholders of such change in position at such time as the Trustees may determine that a change in a Fund’s benchmark index is appropriate.
Under certain circumstances, the Trustees may, without the prior approval of Fund shareholders, implement changes to the performance fee structure of a Fund as discussed above, subject to applicable law.
It is not possible to predict the effect of the Performance Adjustment on future overall compensation to Janus Capital since it will depend on the performance of each Fund relative to the record of the Fund’s benchmark index and future changes to the size of each Fund.
If the average daily net assets of a Fund remain constant during a 36-month performance measurement period, current net assets will be the same as average net assets over the performance measurement period and the maximum Performance Adjustment will be equivalent to 0.15% of current net assets. When current net assets vary from net assets over the 36-month performance measurement period, the Performance Adjustment, as a percentage of current assets, may vary significantly, including at a rate more or less than 0.15%, depending upon whether the net assets of the Fund had been increasing or decreasing (and the amount of such increase or decrease) during the performance measurement period. Note that if net assets for a Fund were increasing during the performance measurement period, the total performance fee paid, measured in dollars, would be more than if that Fund had not increased its net assets during the performance measurement period.
Suppose, for example, that the Performance Adjustment was being computed after the assets of a Fund had been shrinking. Assume its monthly Base Fee Rate was 1/12th of 0.60% of average daily net assets during the previous month. Assume also that average daily net assets during the 36-month performance measurement period were $500 million, but that average daily net assets during the preceding month were just $200 million.
The Base Fee Rate would be computed as follows:
$200 million x 0.60% ¸ 12 = $100,000
If the Fund outperformed or underperformed its benchmark index by an amount which triggered the maximum Performance Adjustment, the Performance Adjustment would be computed as follows:
$500 million x 0.15% ¸ 12 = $62,500, which is approximately 1/12th of 0.375% of $200 million.
If the Fund had outperformed its benchmark index, the total advisory fee rate for that month would be $162,500, which is approximately 1/12th of 0.975% of $200 million.
If the Fund had underperformed its benchmark index, the total advisory fee rate for that month would be $37,500, which is approximately 1/12th of 0.225% of $200 million.
47 |
Therefore, the total advisory fee rate for that month, as a percentage of average net assets during the preceding month, would be approximately 1/12th of 0.975% in the case of outperformance, or approximately 1/12th of 0.225% in the case of underperformance. Under extreme circumstances involving underperformance by a rapidly shrinking Fund, the dollar amount of the Performance Adjustment could be more than the dollar amount of the Base Fee Rate. In such circumstances, Janus Capital would reimburse the applicable Fund.
By contrast, the Performance Adjustment would be a smaller percentage of current assets if the net assets of the Fund were increasing during the performance measurement period. Suppose, for example, that the Performance Adjustment was being computed after the assets of a Fund had been growing. Assume its average daily net assets during the 36-month performance measurement period were $500 million, but that average daily net assets during the preceding month were $800 million.
The Base Fee Rate would be computed as follows:
$800 million x 0.60% ¸ 12 = $400,000
If the Fund outperformed or underperformed its benchmark index by an amount which triggered the maximum Performance Adjustment, the Performance Adjustment would be computed as follows:
$500 million x 0.15% ¸ 12 = $62,500, which is approximately 1/12th of 0.094% of $800 million.
If the Fund had outperformed its benchmark index, the total advisory fee rate for that month would be $462,500, which is approximately 1/12th of 0.694% of $800 million.
If the Fund had underperformed its benchmark index, the total advisory fee rate for that month would be $337,500, which is approximately 1/12th of 0.506% of $800 million.
Therefore, the total advisory fee rate for that month, as a percentage of average net assets during the preceding month, would be approximately 1/12th of 0.694% in the case of outperformance, or approximately 1/12th of 0.506% in the case of underperformance.
The Base Fee Rate for each Fund and the Fund’s benchmark index used for purposes of calculating the Performance Adjustment are shown in the following table:

(6) | The Russell 2000® Value Index measures the performance of those Russell 2000® companies with lower price-to-book ratios and lower forecasted growth values. |
(7) | The Russell 3000® Value Index measures the performance of those Russell 3000® companies with lower price-to-book ratios and lower forecasted growth values. The stocks in this index are also members of either the Russell 1000® Value Index or the Russell 2000® Value Index. |
The following hypothetical examples illustrate the application of the Performance Adjustment for each Fund. The examples assume that the average daily net assets of the Fund remain constant during a 36-month performance measurement period. The Performance Adjustment would be a smaller percentage of current assets if the net assets of the Fund were increasing during the performance measurement period, and a greater percentage of current assets if the net assets of the Fund were

decreasing during the performance measurement period. All numbers in the examples are rounded to the nearest hundredth percent. The net assets of each Fund as of the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014 are shown below.

Examples: INTECH U.S. Core Fund
The monthly maximum positive or negative Performance Adjustment of 1/12th of 0.15% of average net assets during the prior 36 months occurs if the Fund outperforms or underperforms its benchmark index by 4.00% over the same period. The Performance Adjustment is made in even increments for every 0.50% difference in the investment performance of the Fund’s Class A Shares (waiving the upfront sales load) compared to the cumulative investment record of the S&P 500® Index.
Example 1: Fund Outperforms Its Benchmark Index By 4.00%
If the Fund has outperformed the S&P 500® Index by 4.00% during the preceding 36 months, the Fund would calculate the investment advisory fee as follows:
Total Advisory Fee Rate | ||||
Base Fee Rate | Performance Adjustment Rate | for that Month | ||
1/12th of 0.50% | 1/12th of 0.15% | 1/12th of 0.65% |
Example 2: Fund Performance Tracks Its Benchmark Index
If the Fund performance has tracked the performance of the S&P 500® Index during the preceding 36 months, the Fund would calculate the investment advisory fee as follows:
Total Advisory Fee Rate | ||||
Base Fee Rate | Performance Adjustment Rate | for that Month | ||
1/12th of 0.50% | 0.00 | 1/12th of 0.50% |
Example 3: Fund Underperforms Its Benchmark Index By 4.00%
If the Fund has underperformed the S&P 500® Index by 4.00% during the preceding 36 months, the Fund would calculate the investment advisory fee as follows:
Total Advisory Fee Rate | ||||
Base Fee Rate | Performance Adjustment Rate | for that Month | ||
1/12th of 0.50% | 1/12th of -0.15% | 1/12th of 0.35% |
Under the terms of the current Sub-Advisory Agreement between Janus Capital and INTECH, on behalf of INTECH U.S. Core Fund, Janus Capital pays INTECH a fee equal to 50% of the advisory fee paid by the Fund to Janus Capital (net of any performance fee adjustment). This means that the subadvisory fee rate for fees paid by Janus Capital to INTECH will adjust up or down in line with the advisory fee rate for fees paid by the Fund to Janus Capital based on INTECH U.S. Core Fund’s Class A Shares’ (waiving the upfront sales load) performance compared to the investment record of the S&P 500® Index.
Examples: Perkins Mid Cap Value Fund
The monthly maximum positive or negative Performance Adjustment of 1/12th of 0.15% of average net assets during the prior 36 months occurs if the Fund outperforms or underperforms its benchmark index by 4.00% over the same period.

Base Fee Rate | Performance Adjustment Rate | for that Month | ||
1/12th of 0.64% | 1/12th of -0.15% | 1/12th of 0.49% |
Under the terms of the current Sub-Advisory Agreement between Janus Capital and Perkins, on behalf of Perkins Mid Cap Value Fund, Janus Capital pays Perkins a fee equal to 50% of the advisory fee paid by the Fund to Janus Capital (net of any performance fee adjustment, and net of any reimbursement of expenses incurred or fees waived by Janus Capital). This means that the subadvisory fee rate for fees paid by Janus Capital to Perkins will adjust up or down in line with the advisory fee rate for fees paid by the Fund to Janus Capital based on Perkins Mid Cap Value Fund’s Class A Shares’ (waiving the upfront sales load) performance compared to the investment record of the Russell Midcap® Value Index.
Examples: Perkins Large Cap Value Fund

Base Fee Rate | Performance Adjustment Rate | for that Month | ||
1/12th of 0.64% | 1/12th of -0.15% | 1/12th of 0.49% |

This means that the subadvisory fee rate for fees paid by Janus Capital to Perkins will adjust up or down in line with the advisory fee rate for fees paid by the Fund to Janus Capital based on Perkins Small Cap Value Fund’s Class A Shares’ (waiving the upfront sales load) performance compared to the investment record of the Russell 2000® Value Index.
Examples: Perkins Select Value Fund
The monthly maximum positive or negative Performance Adjustment of 1/12th of 0.15% of average net assets during the prior 36 months occurs if the Fund outperforms or underperforms its benchmark index by 5.00% over the same period. The Performance Adjustment is made in even increments for every 0.50% difference in the investment performance of the Fund’s

1/12th of 0.70% | 1/12th of -0.15% | 1/12th of 0.55% |
Because the Fund is a newer fund that commenced operations on December 15, 2011, the net assets of the Fund are expected to be increasing during the performance measurement period, which is likely to result in a Performance Adjustment that will be a smaller percentage of the Fund’s current assets than would be the case if the Fund’s net assets remained constant during the entire performance measurement period.
Under the terms of the current Sub-Advisory Agreement between Janus Capital and Perkins, on behalf of Perkins Select Value Fund, Janus Capital pays Perkins a fee equal to 50% of the advisory fee paid by the Fund to Janus Capital (net of any performance fee adjustment, and net of any reimbursement of expenses incurred or fees waived by Janus Capital). This means that the subadvisory fee rate for fees paid by Janus Capital to Perkins will adjust up or down in line with the advisory fee rate for fees paid by the Fund to Janus Capital based on Perkins Select Value Fund’s Class A Shares’ (waiving the upfront sales load) performance compared to the investment record of the Russell 3000® Value Index.
EXPENSE LIMITATIONS
Janus Capital agreed by contract to waive the advisory fee payable by each Fund listed in the following table, or reimburse expenses, in an amount equal to the amount, if any, that such Fund’s normal operating expenses in any fiscal year, including the investment advisory fee, but excluding any performance adjustments to management fees (if applicable), distribution and shareholder servicing fees (12b-1) applicable to Class A Shares, Class C Shares, Class R Shares, and Class S Shares, the administrative services fees payable pursuant to the Transfer Agency Agreement, brokerage commissions, interest, dividends, taxes, acquired fund fees and expenses, and extraordinary expenses, exceed the annual rate shown below. For information about how these expense limits affect the total expenses of each class of the Funds, refer to the “Fees and Expenses of the Fund” table in the Fund Summary of each Prospectus. Provided that Janus Capital remains investment adviser to the Funds, Janus Capital has agreed to continue each waiver until at least November 1, 2015.

(1) | Janus Capital will be entitled to recoup such reimbursement or fee reduction from the Fund, beginning with the commencement of operations (February 28, 2014) and expiring on the third anniversary of the commencement of operations or until the Fund’s assets meet the first breakpoint in the investment advisory fee schedule, whichever occurs first, provided that at no time during such period shall the normal operating expenses allocated to the Fund, with the exceptions previously noted, exceed the percentage stated. |
(2) | Janus Capital will be entitled to recoup such reimbursement or fee reduction from the Fund, beginning with the commencement of operations (December 15, 2011) and expiring on the third anniversary of the commencement of operations, provided that at no time during such period shall the normal operating expenses allocated to the Fund, with the exceptions previously noted, exceed the percentage stated. For periods prior to April 2, 2012, the expense limit was 1.00%. |
(3) | Effective January 1, 2006 for INTECH U.S. Core Fund, February 1, 2006 for Perkins Mid Cap Value Fund, January 1, 2009 for Perkins Large Cap Value Fund and Perkins Small Cap Value Fund, and January 1, 2012 for Perkins Select Value Fund, each Fund has a performance-based investment advisory fee with a rate that adjusts up or down based upon each Fund’s performance relative to its respective benchmark index over the performance measurement period. Additional details are included in the “Performance-Based Investment Advisory Fee” section of this SAI. Because a fee waiver will have a positive effect upon the Fund’s performance, a fee waiver that is in place during the period when the performance adjustment applies may affect the performance adjustment in a way that is favorable to Janus Capital. Unless terminated, revised, or extended, each Fund’s expense limit will be in effect until at least November 1, 2015. |

SUBADVISERS
Janus Capital has entered into Sub-Advisory Agreements on behalf of INTECH Global Dividend Fund, INTECH International Fund, INTECH U.S. Core Fund, INTECH U.S. Growth Fund, INTECH U.S. Value Fund, Perkins Large Cap Value Fund, Perkins Mid Cap Value Fund, Perkins Select Value Fund, Perkins Small Cap Value Fund, and Perkins Value Plus Income Fund.
INTECH INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT LLC
Janus Capital has entered into Sub-Advisory Agreements with INTECH Investment Management LLC, CityPlace Tower, 525 Okeechobee Boulevard, Suite 1800, West Palm Beach, Florida 33401, on behalf of INTECH Global Dividend Fund, INTECH International Fund, INTECH U.S. Core Fund, INTECH U.S. Growth Fund, and INTECH U.S. Value Fund.
INTECH and its predecessors have been in the investment advisory business since 1987. INTECH also serves as investment adviser or subadviser to other U.S. registered and unregistered investment companies, offshore investment funds, and other institutional accounts. Janus Capital owns approximately 97% of INTECH.
Under the Sub-Advisory Agreements between Janus Capital and INTECH, INTECH is responsible for the day-to-day investment operations of INTECH Global Dividend Fund, INTECH International Fund, INTECH U.S. Core Fund, INTECH U.S. Growth Fund, and INTECH U.S. Value Fund. Investments will be acquired, held, disposed of or loaned, consistent with the investment objectives, policies and restrictions established by the Trustees and set forth in the Trust’s registration statement. INTECH is also obligated to: (i) place all orders for the purchase and sale of investments for the Funds with
54 |
brokers or dealers selected by INTECH; (ii) perform certain limited related administrative functions; (iii) provide the Trustees with oral or written reports regarding the investment portfolio of the Funds; and (iv) maintain all books and records required under federal securities law relating to day-to-day portfolio management of the Funds. The Sub-Advisory Agreements provide that INTECH shall not be liable for any error of judgment or mistake of law or for any loss arising out of any investment or for any act or omission taken with respect to the Funds, except for willful malfeasance, bad faith, or gross negligence in the performance of its duties, or by reason of reckless disregard of its obligations and duties under the Sub-Advisory Agreements and except to the extent otherwise provided by law.
Under the Sub-Advisory Agreements, Janus Capital pays INTECH a fee equal to 50% of the advisory fee payable by each of INTECH Global Dividend Fund, INTECH International Fund, INTECH U.S. Core Fund, INTECH U.S. Growth Fund, and INTECH U.S. Value Fund to Janus Capital (calculated after any applicable performance fee adjustment for INTECH U.S. Core Fund; and after any fee waivers and expense reimbursements for INTECH Global Dividend Fund, INTECH International Fund, and INTECH U.S. Value Fund).
The Sub-Advisory Agreements will continue in effect from year to year if such continuation is specifically approved at least annually by the vote of a majority of the Independent Trustees, and by either the Funds’ Trustees or the affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of each Fund. The Sub-Advisory Agreements are subject to termination at any time, without penalty, by the Trustees or the vote of at least a majority of each Fund’s outstanding voting securities, on 60 days’ advance written notice. The Sub-Advisory Agreements may be terminated by Janus Capital or INTECH at any time, without penalty, by giving 60 days’ advance written notice to the other party, or by Janus Capital or the Trust without advance notice if INTECH is unable to discharge its duties and obligations. The Funds’ Sub-Advisory Agreements terminate automatically in the event of the assignment or termination of the Funds’ Investment Advisory Agreements. Each Fund’s Sub-Advisory Agreement generally may not be amended without the approval by vote of a majority of the Trustees, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, and, to the extent required by the 1940 Act, the affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of each Fund.
PERFORMANCE-BASED SUBADVISORY FEE
Applies to INTECH U.S. Core Fund
Effective January 1, 2008, the subadvisory fee rate paid under the Amended Sub-Advisory Agreement was restructured so that the fee rate paid by Janus Capital to INTECH is equal to 50% of the advisory fee payable by the Fund to Janus Capital (net of any performance fee adjustment). Effective January 1, 2006, the subadvisory fee rate for INTECH U.S. Core Fund changed from a fixed rate to a rate that adjusts up or down based upon the performance of the Fund’s load-waived Class A Shares relative to the S&P 500® Index. Any performance adjustment commenced January 2007. Prior to such time, only the previous fixed rate applied. Janus Capital, and not INTECH U.S. Core Fund, pays this fee. The following discussion provides additional details regarding this change.
On December 29, 2005, shareholders of INTECH U.S. Core Fund approved an Amended Sub-Advisory Agreement between Janus Capital, on behalf of the Fund, and INTECH that introduced a performance incentive subadvisory fee structure. The subadvisory fee rate payable by Janus Capital to INTECH changed from a fixed rate to a rate that adjusts up or down based upon the performance of the Fund’s load-waived Class A Shares relative to its benchmark index, the S&P 500® Index.
PERKINS INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT LLC

Wacker Drive, Suite 6000, Chicago, Illinois 60606, on behalf of Perkins Large Cap Value Fund, Perkins Mid Cap Value Fund, Perkins Select Value Fund, Perkins Small Cap Value Fund, and Perkins Value Plus Income Fund.
Perkins and its predecessors have been in the investment advisory business since 1984. Perkins also serves as investment adviser or subadviser to separately managed accounts and other registered investment companies. Janus Capital owns 100% of Perkins.
Under the Sub-Advisory Agreements between Janus Capital and Perkins, Perkins is responsible for the day-to-day investment operations of Perkins Large Cap Value Fund, Perkins Mid Cap Value Fund, Perkins Select Value Fund, Perkins Small Cap Value Fund, and the equity portion of Perkins Value Plus Income Fund. Investments will be acquired, held, disposed of or loaned, consistent with the investment objectives, policies and restrictions established by the Trustees and set forth in the Trust’s registration statement. Perkins: (i) manages the investment operations of the Funds; (ii) keeps Janus Capital fully informed as to the valuation of assets of the Funds, their condition, investment decisions and considerations; (iii) maintains

all books and records required under federal securities law relating to day-to-day portfolio management of the Funds; (iv) performs certain limited related administrative functions; and (v) provides the Trustees and Janus Capital with economic, operational, and investment data and reports. The Sub-Advisory Agreements provide that Perkins shall not be liable for any error of judgment or mistake of law or for any loss arising out of any investment or for any act or omission taken with respect to the Funds, except for willful malfeasance, bad faith, or gross negligence in the performance of its duties, or by reason of reckless disregard of its obligations and duties under the Sub-Advisory Agreements and except to the extent otherwise provided by law.
Under the Sub-Advisory Agreements, Janus Capital pays Perkins a fee equal to 50% of the advisory fee payable by each of Perkins Large Cap Value Fund, Perkins Mid Cap Value Fund, Perkins Select Value Fund, and Perkins Small Cap Value Fund to Janus Capital (calculated after any applicable performance fee adjustments, fee waivers, and expense reimbursements) and 50% of the advisory fee payable by the equity portion of Perkins Value Plus Income Fund to Janus Capital (net of any fee waivers or expense reimbursements).
The Sub-Advisory Agreements with Perkins will continue in effect from year to year if such continuation is specifically approved at least annually by the vote of a majority of the Independent Trustees, and by either the Funds’ Trustees or the affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of each Fund. The Sub-Advisory Agreements are subject to termination at any time, without penalty, by the Trustees, the vote of at least a majority of the outstanding voting securities of each Fund, or Janus Capital, upon 60 days’ advance written notice, or by Perkins by giving 90 days’ advance written notice to the other party (Perkins shall allow up to an additional 90 days at the request of Janus Capital or the Trust in order to find a replacement for Perkins), or by Janus Capital or the Trust without advance notice if Perkins is unable to discharge its duties and obligations. Each Fund’s Sub-Advisory Agreement terminates automatically in the event of the assignment or termination of each Fund’s respective Investment Advisory Agreement. Each Fund’s Sub-Advisory Agreement generally may not be amended without the approval by vote of a majority of the Trustees, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, and, to the extent required by the 1940 Act, the affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of each Fund.

PAYMENTS TO FINANCIAL INTERMEDIARIES BY JANUS CAPITAL OR ITS AFFILIATES
In addition to payments made under 12b-1 plans, Janus Capital and its affiliates also may make payments out of their own assets to selected broker-dealer firms or other financial intermediaries that sell certain classes of Shares of Janus funds for distribution, marketing, promotional, or related services. Such payments may be based on gross sales, assets under management, or transactional charges, or on a combination of these factors. Payments based primarily on sales create an incentive to make new sales of shares, while payments based on assets create an incentive to retain previously sold shares. Payments based on transactional charges may include the payment or reimbursement of all or a portion of “ticket charges.” Ticket charges are fees charged to salespersons purchasing through a financial intermediary firm in connection with mutual fund purchases, redemptions, or exchanges. The payment or reimbursement of ticket charges creates an incentive for salespersons of an intermediary to sell shares of Janus funds over shares of funds for which there is lesser or no payment or reimbursement of any applicable ticket charge. Payments made with respect to certain classes of Shares may create an incentive for an intermediary to promote or favor other share classes of the Janus funds. Janus Capital and its affiliates consider a number of factors in making payments to financial intermediaries. Criteria may include, but are not limited to, the distribution capabilities of the intermediary, the overall quality of the relationship, expected gross and/or net sales generated by the relationship, redemption and retention rates of assets held through the intermediary, the willingness of the intermediary to cooperate with Janus Capital’s marketing efforts, access to sales personnel, and the anticipated profitability of sales through the institutional relationship. These factors and their weightings may differ from one intermediary to another and may change from time to time. As of the date of this SAI, the broker-dealer firms with which Janus Capital or its affiliates have agreements or are currently negotiating agreements to make payments out of their own assets related to the acquisition or retention of shareholders for Class A Shares and Class C Shares, and for certain financial intermediaries with advisory platforms, Class I Shares, are AIG Advisor Group, Inc. and its broker-dealer subsidiaries; Ameriprise Financial Services, Inc.; Citigroup Global Markets Inc.; Lincoln Financial Advisors Corporation; LPL Financial Corporation; Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated; Morgan Stanley Smith Barney, LLC; Oppenheimer & Co., Inc.; Raymond James & Associates, Inc.; Raymond James Financial Services, Inc.; UBS Financial Services Inc.; and Wells Fargo Advisors, LLC and its broker-dealer affiliates. These fees may be in addition to fees paid from a Fund’s assets to them or other financial intermediaries. Any additions, modifications, or deletions to the broker-dealer firms identified that have occurred since that date are not reflected.
In addition, for all share classes (with the exception of Class D Shares and Class N Shares), Janus Capital, Janus Distributors LLC (“Janus Distributors”), or their affiliates may pay fees, from their own assets, to brokerage firms, banks, financial advisors, retirement plan service providers, and other financial intermediaries for providing other marketing or distribution-related services, as well as recordkeeping, subaccounting, transaction processing, and other shareholder or administrative services in connection with investments in the Janus funds. These fees are in addition to any fees that may be paid from a Fund’s assets to these financial intermediaries. Janus Capital or its affiliates may have numerous agreements to make payments to financial institutions which perform recordkeeping or other administrative services with respect to shareholder accounts. Contact your financial intermediary if you wish to determine whether it receives such payments.
Janus Capital or its affiliates may also share certain marketing expenses with intermediaries, or pay for, or sponsor informational meetings, seminars, client awareness events, support for marketing materials, sales reporting, or business building programs for such financial intermediaries to raise awareness of the Funds. Janus Capital or its affiliates may make payments to participate in intermediary marketing support programs which may provide Janus Capital or its affiliates with one or more of the following benefits: attendance at sales conferences, participation in meetings or training sessions, access to or information about intermediary personnel, use of an intermediary’s marketing and communication infrastructure, fund analysis tools, business planning and strategy sessions with intermediary personnel, information on industry- or platform-specific developments, trends and service providers, and other marketing-related services. Such payments may be in addition to, or in lieu of, the payments described above. These payments are intended to promote the sales of Janus funds and to reimburse financial intermediaries, directly or indirectly, for the costs that they or their salespersons incur in connection with educational seminars, meetings, and training efforts about the Janus funds to enable the intermediaries and their salespersons to make suitable recommendations, provide useful services, and maintain the necessary infrastructure to make the Janus funds available to their customers.
The receipt of (or prospect of receiving) payments, reimbursements, and other forms of compensation described above may provide a financial intermediary and its salespersons with an incentive to favor sales of Janus funds’ shares over sales of other mutual funds (or non-mutual fund investments) or to favor sales of one class of Janus funds’ shares over sales of another Janus funds’ share class, with respect to which the financial intermediary does not receive such payments or receives them in a lower amount. The receipt of these payments may cause certain financial intermediaries to elevate the prominence of the
58 |
Janus funds within such financial intermediary’s organization by, for example, placement on a list of preferred or recommended funds and/or the provision of preferential or enhanced opportunities to promote the Janus funds in various ways within such financial intermediary’s organization.
From time to time, certain financial intermediaries approach Janus Capital to request that Janus Capital make contributions to certain charitable organizations. In these cases, Janus Capital’s contribution may result in the financial intermediary, or its salespersons, recommending Janus funds over other mutual funds (or non-mutual fund investments).
The payment arrangements described above will not change the price an investor pays for Shares nor the amount that a Janus fund receives to invest on behalf of the investor. You should consider whether such arrangements exist when evaluating any recommendations from an intermediary to purchase or sell Shares of the Funds and, if applicable, when considering which share class of a Fund is most appropriate for you.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ABOUT JANUS CAPITAL AND THE SUBADVISERS
Janus Capital acts as subadviser for a number of private-label mutual funds and provides separate account advisory services for institutional accounts. Janus Capital may also manage its own proprietary accounts, as well as other pooled investment vehicles, such as hedge funds. Janus Capital has a fiduciary responsibility to manage all client accounts in a fair and equitable manner. As such, investment decisions for each account managed by Janus Capital, including the Funds, are made independently from those for any other account that is or may in the future become managed by Janus Capital or its affiliates. If, however, a number of accounts managed by Janus Capital are contemporaneously engaged in the purchase or sale of the same security, the orders may be aggregated and/or the transactions may be averaged as to price and allocated to each account in accordance with allocation procedures adopted by Janus Capital. Partial fills for the accounts of two or more portfolio managers and/or investment personnel will be allocated pro rata under procedures adopted by Janus Capital. Circumstances may arise under which Janus Capital may determine that, although it may be desirable and/or suitable that a particular security or other investment be purchased or sold for more than one account, there exists a limited supply or demand for the security or other investment. Janus Capital seeks to allocate the opportunity to purchase or sell that security or other investment among accounts on an equitable basis by taking into consideration factors including, but not limited to, size of the portfolio, concentration of holdings, investment objectives and guidelines, purchase costs, and cash availability. Janus Capital, however, cannot assure equality of allocations among all its accounts, nor can it assure that the opportunity to purchase or sell a security or other investment will be proportionally allocated among accounts according to any particular or predetermined standards or criteria. In some cases, these allocation procedures may adversely affect the price paid or received by an account or the size of the position obtained or liquidated for an account. In others, however, the accounts’ ability to participate in volume transactions may produce better executions and prices for the accounts.
With respect to allocations of initial public offerings of equity securities or syndicate offerings of bonds (each a “Primary Offering”), under Primary Offering allocation procedures adopted by Janus Capital and Perkins, an account may participate in a Primary Offering if the portfolio managers and/or investment personnel believe the Primary Offering is an appropriate investment based on the account’s investment restrictions, risk profile, asset composition, and/or cash levels. For equity securities, these Primary Offering allocation procedures generally require that all shares purchased in a Primary Offering be allocated on a pro rata basis to all participating accounts based upon the total assets of each account. For syndicated bond offerings, the Primary Offering procedures generally require that all bonds purchased be allocated on a pro rata basis to all participating accounts within the same investment strategy (as opposed to pro rata across all participating accounts). To the extent a fund, such as a new fund, has only affiliated shareholders, such as a portfolio manager or an adviser, and the fund participates in a Primary Offering, those shareholders may be perceived as receiving a benefit and, as a result, may have a conflict with management of the fund.
Janus Capital is permitted to adjust its allocation procedures to address fractional shares, odd lots, or minimum issue sizes. In certain circumstances, and subject to its allocation procedures, Janus Capital may deviate from a pro-rata allocation to account for allocation sizes that are deemed, by the portfolio managers and/or investment personnel, to be de minimis to certain eligible accounts or to address situations specific to individual accounts (e.g., cash limitations, position weightings, etc.). Participation in Primary Offerings may impact performance. In particular, the allocation of securities may have the unintended consequence of having a greater impact (positive or negative) on the performance of one or more accounts compared to other accounts.
In connection with investment in People’s Republic of China (“PRC”) local market securities, Janus Capital has developed Qualified Foreign Institutional Investor (“QFII”) allocation procedures to address potential conflicts of interest and to
59 |
equitably and effectively administer QFII operations and the allocation of available investment quota. Janus Capital seeks to allocate quota and administer its QFII role in the best interests of various participating accounts. The procedures also seek to address and mitigate instances where conflicts of interest could exist with regard to the repatriation of assets. Janus Capital will seek to make quota allocation decisions and administer its QFII role without regard to any potential loss of quota which may occur if participating accounts determine to repatriate assets and there is not sufficient interest across other accounts to utilize the available quota. The procedures address additional considerations related to a given account’s objectives, policies and strategies. Janus Capital will consider, among other things, the appropriateness of investment in PRC local market securities in light of the objective, investment time horizon and risk management objectives of the account, whether the account’s liquidity position after a desired quota allocation would continue to maintain a level deemed to be adequate, and whether the desired quota allocation is deemed to be de minimis and the resulting burdens on administration and custody costs to the account outweigh perceived benefit of an investment.
Janus Capital manages long and short portfolios. The simultaneous management of long and short portfolios creates potential conflicts of interest in fund management and creates potential risks such as the risk that short sale activity could adversely affect the market value of long positions in one or more Janus funds (and vice versa), the risk arising from the sequential orders in long and short positions, and the risks associated with the trade desk receiving opposing orders in the same security at the same time.
Janus Capital has adopted procedures that it believes are reasonably designed to mitigate these and other potential conflicts and risks. Among other things, Janus Capital has trade allocation procedures in place as previously described. In addition, procedures prohibit a portfolio manager from executing a short sale on a security held long in any other portfolio that he or she manages but is not held long in the account in which the manager is placing the short. Note this does not prohibit shorting against the box. The procedures also require approvals of Janus Capital senior management in other situations that raise potential conflicts of interest, as well as periodic monitoring of long and short trading activity of the Janus funds and accounts.
INTECH has adopted its own allocation procedures, which apply to the INTECH Funds. INTECH, the subadviser for INTECH Global Dividend Fund, INTECH International Fund, INTECH U.S. Core Fund, INTECH U.S. Growth Fund, and INTECH U.S. Value Fund, generates daily trades for all of its clients, including the INTECH Funds, using proprietary trade system software. Before submission for execution, trades are reviewed by the trader for errors or discrepancies. Trades are submitted to designated brokers in a single electronic file at one time during the day, pre-allocated to individual clients. If an order is not completely filled, executed shares are allocated to client accounts in proportion to the order.
Perkins, the subadviser for Perkins Large Cap Value Fund, Perkins Mid Cap Value Fund, Perkins Select Value Fund, Perkins Small Cap Value Fund, and for approximately half of Perkins Value Plus Income Fund, may buy and sell securities or engage in other investments on behalf of multiple clients, including the Value Funds. Perkins seeks to allocate trades among its clients on an equitable basis, taking into consideration such factors as the size of the client’s portfolio, concentration of holdings, investment objectives and guidelines, purchase costs, and cash availability.
The Funds and other funds advised by Janus Capital or its affiliates may also transfer daily uninvested cash balances into one or more joint trading accounts. Assets in the joint trading accounts are invested in money market instruments and the proceeds are allocated to the participating funds on a pro rata basis.
Pursuant to the provisions of the 1940 Act, Janus mutual funds may participate in an affiliated or non-affiliated cash sweep program. In the cash sweep program, uninvested cash balances of Janus funds may be used to purchase shares of affiliated or non-affiliated money market funds or cash management pooled investment vehicles. All Janus funds are eligible to participate in the cash sweep program (the “Investing Funds”). As adviser, Janus Capital has an inherent conflict of interest because of its fiduciary duties to the affiliated money market funds or cash management pooled investment vehicles and the Investing Funds. In addition, Janus Capital receives an investment advisory fee for managing the cash management vehicle used for its securities lending program, but it may not receive a fee for managing certain other affiliated cash management vehicles, and therefore may have an incentive to allocate preferred investment opportunities to investment vehicles for which it is receiving a fee.
Each account managed by Janus Capital or the subadvisers has its own investment objective and policies and is managed accordingly by the respective portfolio managers and/or investment personnel. As a result, from time to time, two or more different managed accounts may pursue divergent investment strategies with respect to investments or categories of investments.
60 |
The officers and Trustees of the Janus funds may also serve as officers and Trustees of the Janus “funds of funds,” which are funds that primarily invest in other Janus mutual funds. Conflicts may arise as the officers and Trustees seek to fulfill their fiduciary responsibilities to both the Janus funds of funds and the other Janus mutual funds. The Trustees intend to address any such conflicts as deemed appropriate.
Janus Ethics Rules
Janus Capital, INTECH, Perkins, and Janus Distributors currently have in place Ethics Rules, which are comprised of the Personal Trading Policy, Gift and Entertainment Policy, and Outside Business Activity Policy. The Ethics Rules are designed to ensure Janus Capital, INTECH, Perkins, and Janus Distributors personnel: (i) observe applicable legal (including compliance with applicable federal securities laws) and ethical standards in the performance of their duties; (ii) at all times place the interests of the Fund shareholders first; (iii) disclose all actual or potential conflicts; (iv) adhere to the highest standards of loyalty, candor, and care in all matters relating to the Fund shareholders; (v) conduct all personal trading, including transactions in the Funds and other securities, consistent with the Ethics Rules and in such a manner as to avoid any actual or potential conflict of interest or any abuse of their position of trust and responsibility; and (vi) refrain from using any material nonpublic information in securities trading. The Ethics Rules are on file with and available from the SEC through the SEC website at http://www.sec.gov.
Under the Personal Trading Policy, all Janus Capital, INTECH, Perkins, and Janus Distributors personnel, as well as the Trustees and Officers of the Funds, are required to conduct their personal investment activities in a manner that Janus Capital believes is not detrimental to the Funds. In addition, Janus Capital, INTECH, Perkins, and Janus Distributors personnel are not permitted to transact in securities held by the Funds for their personal accounts except under circumstances specified in the Personal Trading Policy. All personnel of Janus Capital, INTECH, Perkins, Janus Distributors, and the Funds, as well as certain other designated employees deemed to have access to current trading information, are required to pre-clear all transactions in securities not otherwise exempt. Requests for trading authorization will be denied when, among other reasons, the proposed personal transaction would be contrary to the provisions of the Personal Trading Policy.
In addition to the pre-clearance requirement described above, the Personal Trading Policy subjects such personnel to various trading restrictions and reporting obligations. All reportable transactions are reviewed for compliance with the Personal Trading Policy and under certain circumstances Janus Capital, INTECH, Perkins, and Janus Distributors personnel may be required to forfeit profits made from personal trading.
PROXY VOTING POLICIES AND PROCEDURES
Each Fund’s Trustees have delegated to Janus Capital or the Fund’s subadviser, as applicable, the authority to vote all proxies relating to such Fund’s portfolio securities in accordance with Janus Capital’s or the applicable subadviser’s own policies and procedures. Summaries of Janus Capital’s and the applicable subadviser’s policies and procedures are available without charge: (i) upon request, by calling 1-800-525-0020; (ii) on the Funds’ website at janus.com/proxyvoting; and (iii) on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov.
A complete copy of Janus Capital’s proxy voting policies and procedures, including specific guidelines, is available at janus.com/proxyvoting.
Each Fund’s proxy voting record for the one-year period ending each June 30th is available, free of charge, through janus.com/proxyvoting and from the SEC through the SEC website at http://www.sec.gov.
JANUS CAPITAL MANAGEMENT LLC
PROXY VOTING SUMMARY FOR MUTUAL FUNDS
Janus Capital seeks to vote proxies in the best interest of its shareholders and without regard to any other Janus Capital relationship (business or otherwise). Janus Capital will not accept direction as to how to vote individual proxies for which it has voting responsibility from any other person or organization other than the research and information provided by its independent proxy voting service, Institutional Shareholder Services Inc. (“Proxy Voting Service”), subject to specific provisions in a client’s account documentation related to exception voting.
Proxy Voting Procedures
Janus Capital has developed proxy voting guidelines (the “Janus Guidelines”) that outline how Janus Capital generally votes proxies on securities held by the portfolios Janus Capital manages. The Janus Guidelines, which include recommendations on most major corporate issues, have been developed by the Janus Proxy Voting Committee (the “Proxy Voting Committee”) in
61 |
consultation with Janus Capital’s portfolio managers. In creating proxy voting recommendations, the Proxy Voting Committee analyzes proxy proposals from the prior year and evaluates whether those proposals would adversely or beneficially affect shareholders’ interests. The Proxy Voting Committee also reviews policy rationale provided by the Proxy Voting Service related to voting recommendations for the upcoming proxy season. Once the Proxy Voting Committee establishes its recommendations and revises the Janus Guidelines, they are distributed to Janus Capital’s portfolio managers for review and implementation. Mutual fund proxies are generally voted in accordance with the Janus Guidelines. However, upon request, certain non-mutual fund client proxies are voted in accordance with the Proxy Voting Service’s Taft-Hartley guidelines (the “Taft-Hartley Guidelines”), which were developed in conjunction with the AFL-CIO and have a worker-owner view of long-term corporate value.
While the Proxy Voting Committee sets the Janus Guidelines and serves as a resource for Janus Capital’s portfolio managers, it does not have proxy voting authority for any proprietary or nonproprietary mutual fund. In addition, Janus Capital has engaged the Proxy Voting Service to assist in the voting of proxies. The Proxy Voting Service provides research and recommendations on proxy issues. Janus Capital’s portfolio managers are responsible for proxy votes on securities they own in the portfolios they manage. Certain Funds may participate in a securities lending program under which shares of an issuer may be on loan while that issuer is conducting a proxy solicitation. Generally, if shares of an issuer are on loan during a proxy solicitation, a Fund cannot vote the shares. The portfolio managers have discretion to pull back lent shares before proxy record dates and vote proxies if time permits. Most portfolio managers vote consistently with the Janus Guidelines; however, a portfolio manager has discretion to vote differently than the Janus Guidelines.
The Proxy Voting Committee’s oversight responsibilities include monitoring for, and resolving, material conflicts of interest with respect to proxy voting. Janus Capital believes that application of the Janus Guidelines to vote mutual fund proxies should, in most cases, adequately address any possible conflicts of interest since the Janus Guidelines are predetermined. However, the potential for conflicts of interest exists to the extent the portfolio managers have discretion to vote differently than the Janus Guidelines. On a quarterly basis, the Proxy Voting Committee reviews records of any votes that were cast differently than the Janus Guidelines and the related rationales for such votes. Additionally, and in instances where a portfolio manager proposes to vote a proxy inconsistent with the Janus Guidelines and a potential conflict is identified, the Proxy Voting Committee will review the proxy votes in order to determine whether a portfolio manager’s voting rationale appears reasonable. If the Proxy Voting Committee does not agree that a portfolio manager’s rationale is reasonable, the Proxy Voting Committee will refer the matter to the appropriate Chief Investment Officer(s) (or Director of Research in his/her absence) to determine how to vote.
Proxy Voting Policies
As discussed above, the Proxy Voting Committee has developed the Janus Guidelines for use in voting proxies. Below is a summary of some of the Janus Guidelines.
Board of Directors Issues
Janus Capital: (i) will generally vote in favor of slates of director candidates that are comprised of a majority of independent directors; (ii) will generally vote in favor of proposals to increase the minimum number of independent directors; and (iii) will generally oppose non-independent directors who serve on the audit, compensation, and/or nominating committees of the board.
Auditor Issues
Janus Capital will generally oppose proposals asking for approval of auditors that have a financial interest in or association with the company and are therefore not independent.
Executive Compensation Issues
Janus Capital reviews executive compensation-related proposals on a case-by-case basis using research provided by the Proxy Voting Service. The research is designed to estimate the total cost of a proposed plan. If the proposed cost is above an allowable cap as identified by the Proxy Voting Service, the proposed equity-based compensation plan will generally be opposed. In addition, proposals regarding the re-pricing of underwater options (stock options in which the price the employee is contracted to buy shares is higher than the current market price) and the issuance of reload options (stock options that are automatically granted if outstanding stock options are exercised during a window period) will generally be opposed. Janus Capital will generally vote in favor with regard to advisory votes on executive compensation (say-on-pay), unless problematic pay practices are maintained (as determined by the Proxy Voting Service).
62 |
General Corporate Issues
Janus Capital: (i) will generally oppose proposals regarding supermajority voting rights (for example, to approve acquisitions or mergers); (ii) will generally oppose proposals for different classes of stock with different voting rights; and (iii) will generally oppose proposals seeking to implement measures designed to prevent or obstruct corporate takeovers, unless such measures are designed primarily as a short-term means to protect a tax benefit. Janus Capital will review proposals relating to mergers, acquisitions, tender offers, and other similar actions on a case-by-case basis.
Shareholder Proposals
If a shareholder proposal is specifically addressed by the Janus Guidelines, Janus Capital will generally vote pursuant to that Janus Guideline. Janus Capital will generally abstain from voting shareholder proposals that are social, moral, or ethical in nature or place arbitrary constraints on the board or management of a company. Janus Capital will solicit additional research from its Proxy Voting Service for proposals outside the scope of the Janus Guidelines.
INTECH INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT LLC PROXY VOTING PROCEDURES |
The following are the procedures for INTECH, with respect to the voting of proxies on behalf of all clients for which INTECH has been delegated the responsibility for voting proxies, and the keeping of records relating to proxy voting.
General Policy. INTECH’s investment process involves buy and sell decisions that are determined solely by a mathematical formula that selects target holdings and weightings without any consideration of the fundamentals of individual companies or other company-specific factors. As such, INTECH does not perform extensive corporate research or analysis. Accordingly, INTECH has engaged Institutional Shareholder Services Inc. (“ISS”), an independent proxy voting service provider, to vote all proxies on behalf of client accounts in accordance, at the client’s discretion, with ISS’ Benchmark Proxy Voting Guidelines, Taft-Hartley Proxy Voting Guidelines, Public Fund Proxy Voting Guidelines, Socially Responsible Investing Proxy Voting Guidelines (“Social Guidelines”), Sustainability Proxy Voting Guidelines, or Catholic Faith-Based U.S. Proxy Voting Guidelines (collectively referred to as the “ISS Recommendations”). The ISS Recommendations are designed with the intent of maximizing the long-term economic benefits to shareholders.
INTECH will vote all proxies on behalf of clients’ accounts in accordance with the ISS Recommendations that best represent the client type. Specifically, unless otherwise directed by a client, INTECH will vote:
• | Corporate, Mutual Fund/Sub-Advised, and Commingled Pool clients in accordance with ISS’ Benchmark Proxy Voting Guidelines, which were developed by ISS to increase total shareholder value and risk mitigation and are generally management oriented. |
• | Union and Union Taft-Hartley clients in accordance with ISS’ Taft-Hartley Proxy Voting Guidelines (formerly known as the ISS Proxy Voting Service or PVS Guidelines), which were developed by ISS, in conjunction with the AFL-CIO, with a worker-owner view of long-term corporate value. |
• | Public Fund clients in accordance with ISS’ Public Fund Proxy Voting Guidelines, which were developed by ISS to help ensure that public funds fulfill all statutory and common law obligations governing proxy voting with the intent of maximizing long-term economic benefits of its plan participants and beneficiaries. |
• | Not-For-Profit (including Endowments and Foundations) clients in accordance with either ISS’ Social Guidelines, Sustainability Proxy Voting Guidelines (“Sustainability Guidelines”), or Catholic Faith-Based U.S. Proxy Voting Guidelines (“Catholic Guidelines”). The Social Guidelines recognize that socially responsible institutional shareholders are concerned with economic returns to shareholders and sound corporate governance, along with the ethical behavior of corporations and the social and environmental impact of their actions. The Sustainability Guidelines represent a “middle of the road” approach to corporate governance and proxy voting that aligns with the perspectives of mainstream investors, including the UNPRI (United Nations Principles of Responsible Investing) signatories that are looking to incorporate Environmental, Social and corporate Governance (“ESG”) considerations into their investment decision-making processes and proxy voting practices to a greater extent. The Catholic Guidelines are consistent with the objectives of socially responsible shareholders as well as the teachings of Catholicism and Christianity as a whole. On matters of social and environmental impact, these guidelines seek to reflect a broad consensus of the faith-based socially responsible investing community. |
INTECH will not accept direction in the voting of proxies for which it has voting responsibility from any person or organization other than the ISS Recommendations. Additional information about ISS and the ISS Recommendations is available at http://www.issgovernance.com/policy.
63 |
INTECH will only accept direction from a client to vote proxies for its account pursuant to the ISS Recommendations. Of course, clients are always welcome to retain proxy-voting authority or to revoke previously granted, proxy-voting authority.
INTECH understands the importance of exercising its clients’ votes and will take all reasonable steps to exercise this right in all cases. However, in some circumstances, it may be impractical or sometimes impossible for INTECH to vote. For example, with respect to clients that have elected to participate in securities lending, it is generally impractical for INTECH to call back securities to vote proxies. Some markets require that securities be “blocked”1 or re-registered to vote at a company’s meeting. Absent an issue of compelling economic importance, INTECH will generally not vote due to the loss of liquidity imposed by these requirements. Further, the costs of voting (e.g., custodian fees, vote agency fees, etc.) in emerging and other international markets may be substantially higher than in the United States. As such, INTECH may limit its voting on securities in instances where the issues presented are unlikely to have a material impact on shareholder value.
Delegation of Proxy Voting Administration. INTECH has engaged the services of the Janus Securities Operations Group to oversee ISS in the administration for its proxy voting.
Janus Securities Operations Group. The Janus Securities Operations Group works with ISS and is responsible to INTECH for ensuring that all proxies are voted consistent with the ISS Recommendations.
Voting and Use of Proxy Voting Service. Pursuant to its relationship with Janus Capital, INTECH has engaged ISS to assist in the voting of proxies. ISS is responsible for coordinating with clients’ custodians to ensure that all proxy materials received by the custodians relating to clients’ portfolio securities are processed timely. ISS is responsible for working with the Janus Securities Operations Group to coordinate the actual votes cast. In addition, ISS is responsible for maintaining copies of all proxy statements received by issuers and to promptly provide such materials to INTECH or Janus Capital, or clients, upon request. Janus Capital has instructed ISS to vote all Janus mutual fund proxies, for which INTECH has voting authority, in accordance with ISS’ Benchmark Proxy Voting Guidelines.
Conflicts of Interest. INTECH has adopted the following procedures and controls to avoid conflicts of interest that may arise in connection with proxy voting:
• | ISS shall vote all proxies on INTECH’s behalf in accordance with the ISS Recommendations. In its capacity as administrator, Janus Capital shall conduct periodic reviews of proxy voting records on a sample basis to ensure that all votes are actually cast in accordance with this policy. |
• | The Janus Securities Operations Group is not authorized to override any recommendation except upon the receipt of express written authorization from INTECH’s Chief Compliance Officer. The Janus Securities Operations Group shall maintain records of all overrides, including all required authorizations. |
• | Without limiting the foregoing, the Janus Securities Operations Group shall not give any consideration to the manner in which votes are being cast on behalf of Janus Capital or its affiliates with respect to a particular matter. |
• | Any attempts to influence the proxy voting process shall be reported immediately to INTECH’s Chief Compliance Officer. |
• | All client accounts are prohibited from investing in securities of Janus Capital or its publicly traded affiliates. INTECH maintains a restricted list of securities that may not be purchased on behalf of individual accounts, which includes, among other things, affiliates of such accounts. INTECH’s trading system is designed to prohibit transactions in all securities on the restricted list. |
• | At least annually, INTECH reviews ISS’ Policies, Procedures, and Practices Regarding Potential Conflicts of Interest (“ISS’ Conflict Policy”), which addresses conflicts of interest that could arise in connection with advisory services provided by ISS or its affiliates, to ensure ISS’ Conflict Policy is reasonably designed to minimize any such potential conflicts of interest. |
In light of such procedures and controls, potential or actual conflicts in the proxy-voting process are rare. In the unusual circumstance that a particular proxy vote may present a potential or actual conflict, the matter shall be referred to INTECH’s Proxy Review Group, which is composed of INTECH’s Chief Administrative Officer & General Counsel, Chief Financial Officer and Chief Compliance Officer. To the extent that a conflict of interest is identified, INTECH will vote the proxy according to the ISS Recommendation unless otherwise determined by the Proxy Review Group.
1 Share blocking is a mechanism used by certain global jurisdictions whereby shares to be voted are frozen and may not be traded for a specified period of time prior to a shareholder meeting. Share blocking is intended to facilitate the voting process; however, it also imposes constraints as a pending trade may fail if it settles during the blocked period.
64 |
Reporting and Record Retention. On a quarterly basis, INTECH will provide its clients with the proxy voting record for that client’s account. Janus Capital, on INTECH’s behalf, retains proxy statements received regarding client securities, records of votes cast on behalf of clients and records of client requests for proxy voting information. In addition, INTECH will retain copies of its Proxy Voting Procedures and the relevant ISS Proxy Voting Guidelines. Proxy statements received from issuers are either available on the SEC’s EDGAR database or are kept by a third party voting service and are available on request. All proxy voting materials and supporting documentation are retained for a minimum of 6 years.
Review of Policy. From time to time, INTECH reviews this policy and the services provided by ISS to determine whether the continued use of ISS and the ISS Recommendations is in the best interests of clients.
PERKINS INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT LLC
PROXY VOTING SUMMARY FOR MUTUAL FUNDS
Perkins seeks to vote proxies in the best interest of its shareholders and without regard to any other Perkins relationship (business or otherwise). Perkins will not accept direction as to how to vote individual proxies for which it has voting responsibility from any other person or organization other than the research and information provided by its independent proxy voting service, Institutional Shareholder Services Inc. (“Proxy Voting Service”), subject to specific provisions in a client’s account documentation related to exception voting.
Proxy Voting Procedures
Perkins has developed proxy voting guidelines (the “Perkins Guidelines”) that outline how Perkins generally votes proxies on securities held by the portfolios Perkins manages. The Perkins Guidelines, which include recommendations on most major corporate issues, have been developed by Perkins in consultation with the Janus Proxy Voting Committee. Perkins portfolio managers are responsible for proxy votes on securities they own in the portfolios they manage. Most portfolio managers vote consistently with the Perkins Guidelines; however, a portfolio manager has discretion to vote differently than the Perkins Guidelines. Perkins has delegated the administration of its proxy voting to Janus Capital. Janus Capital, on Perkins’ behalf, has engaged the Proxy Voting Service to assist in the voting of proxies. The Proxy Voting Service also provides research and recommendations on proxy issues. Mutual fund proxies are generally voted in accordance with the Perkins Guidelines. However, upon request, certain non-mutual fund client proxies are voted in accordance with the Proxy Voting Service’s Taft-Hartley guidelines (the “Taft-Hartley Guidelines”), which were developed in conjunction with the AFL-CIO and have a worker-owner view of long-term corporate value.
While the Janus Proxy Voting Committee serves as a resource for Perkins and its portfolio managers, the Committee does not have proxy voting authority for any proprietary or nonproprietary mutual fund. Perkins’ portfolio managers are responsible for proxy votes on securities they own in the portfolios they manage. Although Perkins-managed funds will generally not participate in securities lending, certain funds may participate in a securities lending program under which shares of an issuer may be on loan while that issuer is conducting a proxy solicitation. Generally, if shares of an issuer are on loan during a proxy solicitation, a fund cannot vote the shares. If applicable, the portfolio managers have discretion to pull back lent shares before proxy record dates and vote proxies if time permits.
The Janus Proxy Voting Committee serves as a resource to portfolio management with respect to proxy voting and oversees the proxy voting process. Perkins representatives work closely with the Janus Proxy Voting Committee in administering and overseeing the Perkins proxy voting procedures. Perkins and the Janus Proxy Voting Committee’s oversight responsibilities include monitoring for, and resolving, material conflicts of interest with respect to proxy voting. Perkins and the Janus Proxy Voting Committee believe that application of the Perkins Guidelines to vote mutual fund proxies should, in most cases, adequately address any possible conflicts of interest since the Perkins Guidelines are predetermined. However, the potential for conflicts of interest exists to the extent the portfolio managers have discretion to vote differently than the Perkins Guidelines. For proxy votes that are inconsistent with the Perkins Guidelines and a potential conflict is identified, the Janus Proxy Voting Committee will review the proxy votes in order to determine whether the portfolio manager’s voting rationale appears reasonable. If the Janus Proxy Voting Committee does not agree that the portfolio manager’s rationale is reasonable, the Janus Proxy Voting Committee will refer the matter to the appropriate Chief Investment Officer(s) (or the Director of Research in his/her absence) to determine how to vote.
Proxy Voting Policies
Below is a summary of some of the Perkins Guidelines.
65 |
Board of Directors Issues
Perkins: (i) will generally vote in favor of slates of director candidates that are comprised of a majority of independent directors; (ii) will generally vote in favor of proposals to increase the minimum number of independent directors; and (iii) will generally oppose non-independent directors who serve on the audit, compensation, and/or nominating committees of the board.
Auditor Issues
Perkins will generally oppose proposals asking for approval of auditors that have a financial interest in or association with the company and are therefore not independent.
Executive Compensation Issues
Perkins reviews executive compensation-related proposals on a case-by-case basis using research provided by the Proxy Voting Service. The research is designed to estimate the total cost of a proposed plan. If the proposed cost is above an allowable cap, as identified by the Proxy Voting Service, the proposed equity-based compensation plan will generally be opposed. In addition, proposals regarding the re-pricing of underwater options (stock options in which the price the employee is contracted to buy shares is higher than the current market price) and the issuance of reload options (stock options that are automatically granted if outstanding stock options are exercised during a window period) will generally be opposed. Perkins will generally vote in favor with regard to advisory votes on executive compensation (say-on-pay), unless problematic pay practices are maintained (as determined by the Proxy Voting Service).
General Corporate Issues
Perkins: (i) will generally oppose proposals regarding supermajority voting rights (for example, to approve acquisitions or mergers); (ii) will generally oppose proposals for different classes of stock with different voting rights; and (iii) will generally oppose proposals seeking to implement measures designed to prevent or obstruct corporate takeovers, unless such measures are designed primarily as a short-term means to protect a tax benefit. Perkins will review proposals relating to mergers, acquisitions, tender offers, and other similar actions on a case-by-case basis.
Shareholder Proposals
If a shareholder proposal is specifically addressed by the Perkins Guidelines, Perkins will generally vote pursuant to that Perkins Guideline. Perkins will generally abstain from voting shareholder proposals that are social, moral, or ethical in nature or place arbitrary constraints on the board or management of a company. Perkins will solicit additional research from its Proxy Voting Service for proposals outside the scope of the Perkins Guidelines.

Custodian, transfer agent, and certain affiliations
State Street Bank and Trust Company (“State Street”), P.O. Box 0351, Boston, Massachusetts 02117-0351 is the custodian of the domestic securities and cash of the Funds and of an affiliated cash management pooled investment vehicle. State Street is the designated Foreign Custody Manager (as the term is defined in Rule 17f-5 under the 1940 Act) of the Funds’ securities and cash held outside the United States. The Funds’ Trustees have delegated to State Street certain responsibilities for such assets, as permitted by Rule 17f-5. State Street and the foreign subcustodians selected by it hold the Funds’ assets in safekeeping and collect and remit the income thereon, subject to the instructions of each Fund.
Deutsche Bank AG (“Deutsche Bank”) acts as securities lending agent and a limited purpose custodian or subcustodian to receive and disburse cash balances and cash collateral, hold short-term investments, hold collateral, and perform other custodian functions in accordance with the Agency Securities Lending and Repurchase Agreement (“Lending Agreement”). In addition, The Bank of New York Mellon and JPMorgan Chase Bank may act as limited purpose subcustodians in connection with certain reverse repurchase transactions completed in connection with the Lending Agreement.
Janus Services LLC (“Janus Services”), 151 Detroit Street, Denver, Colorado 80206-4805, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Janus Capital, is the Funds’ transfer agent. In addition, Janus Services provides or arranges for the provision of certain other administrative services including, but not limited to, recordkeeping, accounting, order processing, and other shareholder services for the Funds.
Certain, but not all, intermediaries may charge administrative fees to investors in Class A Shares, Class C Shares, and Class I Shares for administrative services provided on behalf of such investors. These administrative fees are paid by the Class A Shares, Class C Shares, and Class I Shares of the Funds to Janus Services, which uses such fees to reimburse intermediaries. Consistent with the Transfer Agency Agreement between Janus Services and the Funds, Janus Services may negotiate the level, structure, and/or terms of the administrative fees with intermediaries requiring such fees on behalf of the Funds. Janus Capital and its affiliates benefit from an increase in assets that may result from such relationships.
Class D Shares of the Funds pay an annual administrative services fee of 0.12% of net assets. These administrative services fees are paid by Class D Shares of each Fund for shareholder services provided by Janus Services.
Janus Services receives an administrative services fee at an annual rate of 0.25% of the average daily net assets of Class R Shares, Class S Shares, and Class T Shares of each Fund for providing or procuring administrative services to investors in Class R Shares, Class S Shares, and Class T Shares of the Funds. Janus Services expects to use all or a significant portion of this fee to compensate retirement plan service providers, broker-dealers, bank trust departments, financial advisors, and other financial intermediaries for providing these services. Janus Services or its affiliates may also pay fees for services provided by intermediaries to the extent the fees charged by intermediaries exceed the 0.25% of net assets charged to Class R Shares, Class S Shares, and Class T Shares of each Fund. Janus Services may keep certain amounts retained for reimbursement of out-of-pocket costs incurred for servicing clients of Class R Shares, Class S Shares, and Class T Shares.
Services provided by these financial intermediaries may include, but are not limited to, recordkeeping, subaccounting, order processing, providing order confirmations, periodic statements, forwarding prospectuses, shareholder reports, and other materials to existing customers, answering inquiries regarding accounts, and other administrative services. Order processing includes the submission of transactions through the National Securities Clearing Corporation (“NSCC”) or similar systems, or those processed on a manual basis with Janus.
For the fiscal years ended June 30, unless otherwise noted, the total amounts paid by Class D Shares, Class R Shares, Class S Shares, and Class T Shares of the Funds to Janus Services for administrative services are summarized below. For Class R Shares, Class S Shares, and Class T Shares, Janus Services pays out all or substantially all of the amount reflected as compensation to broker-dealers and service providers.

Janus Services is compensated for its services related to Class D Shares, and receives reimbursement for its out-of-pocket costs on all other share classes. Included in out-of-pocket expenses are the expenses Janus Services incurs for serving as transfer agent and providing servicing to shareholders.
Through Janus Services, the Funds pay DST Systems, Inc. (“DST”) fees for the use of DST’s shareholder accounting system, as well as for certain broker-controlled accounts and closed accounts. These fees are in addition to any administrative services fees paid to Janus Services. The Funds also use and pay for DST systems to track and process contingent deferred sales charges. These fees are only charged to classes of the Funds with contingent deferred sales charges, as applicable.
Janus Distributors, 151 Detroit Street, Denver, Colorado 80206-4805, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Janus Capital, is the principal underwriter for the Funds. Janus Distributors is registered as a broker-dealer under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and is a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. Janus Distributors acts as the agent of the Funds in connection with the sale of their Shares in all states in which such Shares are registered and in which Janus Distributors is qualified as a broker-dealer. Under the Distribution Agreement, Janus Distributors continuously offers each Fund’s Shares and accepts orders at NAV per share of the relevant class. The cash-compensation amount or rate at which Janus Distributors’ registered representatives are paid for sales of products may differ based on a type of fund or a specific trust or the distribution channel or platform. The receipt of (or prospect of receiving) compensation described above may provide an incentive for a registered representative to favor sales of funds, or certain share classes of a fund, for which they receive a higher compensation amount or rate. You should consider these arrangements when evaluating any recommendations of your registered representative.

Portfolio transactions and brokerage
Janus Capital places all portfolio transactions of the Funds, except for the INTECH Funds. With respect to the INTECH Funds, INTECH places portfolio transactions using its proprietary trade system software. With respect to Perkins Large Cap Value Fund, Perkins Mid Cap Value Fund, Perkins Select Value Fund, and Perkins Small Cap Value Fund, Janus Capital places all portfolio transactions solely upon Perkins’ direction. With respect to Perkins Value Plus Income Fund, Janus Capital places all portfolio transactions for the fixed-income portion of the Fund and, for the equity portion of the Fund, places all portfolio transactions solely upon Perkins’ direction.
Janus Capital and Perkins have a policy of seeking to obtain the “best execution” of all portfolio transactions (the best net prices under the circumstances based upon a number of factors including and subject to the factors discussed below) provided that Janus Capital and Perkins may occasionally pay higher commissions for research services as described below. The Funds may trade foreign securities in foreign countries because the best available market for these securities is often on foreign exchanges. In transactions on foreign stock exchanges, brokers’ commissions are frequently fixed and are often higher than in the United States, where commissions are negotiated.
Janus Capital considers a number of factors in seeking best execution in selecting brokers and dealers and in negotiating commissions on agency transactions. In seeking best execution on trades for Funds subadvised by Perkins, Janus Capital acts on behalf of and in consultation with Perkins. Those factors include, but are not limited to: Janus Capital’s and Perkins’ knowledge of currently available negotiated commission rates or prices of securities currently available and other current transaction costs; the nature of the security being traded; the size and type of the transaction; the nature and character of the markets for the security to be purchased or sold; the desired timing of the trade; the activity existing and expected in the market for the particular security; confidentiality, including trade anonymity; liquidity; the quality of the execution, clearance, and settlement services; financial stability of the broker or dealer; the existence of actual or apparent operational problems of any broker or dealer; rebates of commissions by a broker to a Fund or to a third party service provider to the Fund to pay Fund expenses; and the value of research products or services provided by brokers. In recognition of the value of the foregoing factors, and as permitted by Section 28(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, Janus Capital may place portfolio transactions with a broker or dealer with whom it has negotiated a commission that is in excess of the commission another broker or dealer would have charged for effecting that transaction if Janus Capital (or Janus Capital acting on behalf of and in consultation with Perkins) determines in good faith that such amount of commission was reasonable in light of the value of the brokerage and research services provided by such broker or dealer viewed in terms of either that particular transaction or of the overall responsibilities of Janus Capital or Perkins, as applicable. To constitute eligible “research services,” such services must qualify as “advice,” “analyses,” or “reports.” To determine that a service constitutes research services, Janus Capital or Perkins, as applicable, must conclude that it reflects the “expression of reasoning or knowledge” relating to the value of securities, advisability of effecting transactions in securities or analyses, or reports concerning issuers, securities, economic factors, investment strategies, or the performance of accounts. To constitute eligible “brokerage services,” such services must effect securities transactions and functions incidental thereto, and include clearance, settlement, and the related custody services. Additionally, brokerage services have been interpreted to include services relating to the execution of securities transactions. Research received from brokers or dealers is supplemental to Janus Capital’s and Perkins’ own research efforts. Because Janus Capital and Perkins receive a benefit from research they receive from broker-dealers, Janus Capital and Perkins may have an incentive to continue to use those broker-dealers to effect transactions. Janus Capital and Perkins do not consider a broker-dealer’s sale of Fund shares when choosing a broker-dealer to effect transactions.
“Cross trades,” in which one Janus Capital account sells a particular security to another account (potentially saving transaction costs for both accounts), may also pose a potential conflict of interest. Cross trades may be seen to involve a potential conflict of interest if, for example, one account is permitted to sell a security to another account at a higher price than an independent third party would pay. Janus Capital and the Funds’ Trustees have adopted compliance procedures that provide that any transactions between the Fund and another Janus-advised account are to be made at an independent current market price, as required by law. There is also a potential conflict of interest when cross trades involve a Janus fund that has substantial ownership by Janus Capital. At times, Janus Capital may have a controlling interest of a Fund involved in a cross trade.

Janus Capital and Perkins do not guarantee any broker the placement of a predetermined amount of securities transactions in return for the research or brokerage services it provides. Janus Capital and Perkins do, however, have internal procedures for allocating transactions in a manner consistent with their execution policies to brokers that they have identified as providing research, research-related products or services, or execution-related services of a particular benefit to their clients. Janus Capital and Perkins have entered into client commission agreements (“CCAs”) with certain broker-dealers under which the broker-dealers may use a portion of their commissions to pay third parties or other broker-dealers that provide Janus Capital and Perkins with research or brokerage services, as permitted under Section 28(e) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934. CCAs allow Janus Capital and Perkins to direct broker-dealers to pool commissions that are generated from orders executed at that broker-dealer, and then periodically direct the broker-dealer to pay third parties or other broker-dealers for research or brokerage services. All uses of CCAs by Janus Capital and Perkins are subject to applicable law and their best execution obligations. Brokerage and research products and services furnished by brokers may be used in servicing any or all of the clients of Janus Capital or Perkins, and such research may not necessarily be used by Janus Capital or Perkins in connection with the same accounts that paid commissions to the broker providing such brokerage and research products and services. Such products and services may not always be used in connection with management of the Funds. Similarly, research and brokerage services paid for with commissions generated by equity trades may be used for fixed-income clients that normally do not pay brokerage commissions or other clients whose commissions are generally not used to obtain such research and brokerage services. Perkins may make its own separate arrangements with and maintain internal allocation procedures for allocating transactions to brokers who provide research products and services to encourage them to provide services expected to be useful to Perkins’ clients, including Perkins Large Cap Value Fund, Perkins Mid Cap Value Fund, Perkins Select Value Fund, Perkins Small Cap Value Fund, and Perkins Value Plus Income Fund.
Janus Capital and Perkins may also use step-out transactions in order to receive research products and related services. In a step-out transaction, Janus Capital or Perkins directs trades to a broker-dealer with the instruction that the broker-dealer execute the transaction, but “step-out” all or a portion of the transaction or commission in favor of another broker-dealer that provides such products and/or services. The second broker-dealer may clear and settle and receive commissions for the stepped-in portion. In a new issue designation, Janus Capital or Perkins directs purchase orders to a broker-dealer that is a selling group member or underwriter of an equity or fixed-income new issue offering. Janus Capital or Perkins directs that broker-dealer to designate a portion of the broker-dealer’s commission on the new issue purchase to a second broker-dealer(s) that provides such products and/or services. Given Janus Capital’s and Perkins’ receipt of such products and services in connection with step-out transactions and new issue designations, Janus Capital and Perkins have an incentive to continue to engage in such transactions; however, Janus Capital and Perkins only intend to utilize step-out transactions and new issue designations when they believe that doing so would not hinder best execution efforts.
INTECH has a policy of seeking to obtain best execution (obtaining the most favorable price and efficient execution). INTECH seeks to effect each transaction at a price and commission, if any, that provides the most favorable total cost or
71 |
proceeds reasonably attainable in the circumstances. INTECH may, however, pay a higher commission than would otherwise be necessary for a particular transaction when, in INTECH’s opinion, to do so will further the goal of obtaining the best available execution. Commissions are negotiated with the broker on the basis of the quality and quantity of execution services that the broker provides, in light of generally prevailing commission rates with respect to any securities transactions involving a commission payment. Periodically, reviews are conducted of the allocation among brokers of orders for equity securities and the commissions that were paid.
INTECH does not consider research services in selecting brokers. For the INTECH Funds, regular daily trades are generated by INTECH using proprietary trade system software. Before submission for execution, trades are reviewed by the trader for errors or discrepancies. Trades are submitted to designated brokers at one time during the day, to the extent possible, pre-allocated to individual clients. In the event that an order is not completely filled, executed shares are allocated to client accounts in proportion to the order.
When the Funds purchase or sell a security in the over-the-counter market, the transaction takes place directly with a principal market-maker, without the use of a broker, except in those circumstances where, in the opinion of Janus Capital or the subadviser, better prices and executions will be achieved through the use of a broker.

Although Perkins Mid Cap Value Fund and Perkins Small Cap Value Fund are closed, certain investors may continue to invest in the Funds and/or open new Fund accounts as described in the Funds’ Prospectuses. Detailed information is also included under “Closed Fund Policies” in this section of the SAI.
As stated in the Funds’ Prospectuses, the net asset value (“NAV”) of the Shares of each class of each Fund is determined once each day the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) is open, as of the close of its regular trading session (normally 4:00 p.m., New York time, Monday through Friday). The per share NAV for each class of each Fund is computed by dividing the total value of securities and other assets allocated to the class, less liabilities allocated to that class, by the total number of outstanding shares for the class. Securities held by the Funds are valued in accordance with policies and procedures established by and under the supervision of the Trustees (the “Valuation Procedures”). In determining NAV, equity securities traded on a domestic securities exchange are generally valued at the closing prices on the primary market or exchange on which they trade. If such price is lacking for the trading period immediately preceding the time of determination, such securities are valued at their current bid price. Equity securities that are traded on a foreign exchange are generally valued at the closing prices on such markets. In the event that there is not current trading volume on a particular security in such foreign exchange, the bid price from the primary exchange is generally used to value the security. Securities that are traded on the over-the-counter markets are generally valued at their closing or latest bid prices as available. Foreign securities and currencies are converted to U.S. dollars using the applicable exchange rate in effect at the close of the NYSE. Each Fund will determine the market value of individual securities held by it by using prices provided by one or more professional pricing services or, as needed, by obtaining market quotations from independent broker-dealers. Short-term securities maturing within 60 days or less are valued on an amortized cost basis. Debt securities with a remaining maturity of greater than 60 days are valued in accordance with the evaluated bid price supplied by the pricing service that is intended to reflect market value. The evaluated bid price supplied by the pricing service is an evaluation that may consider factors such as security prices, yields, maturities, and ratings.
Securities for which market quotations or evaluated prices are not readily available or are deemed unreliable are valued at fair value determined in good faith under the Valuation Procedures. Circumstances in which fair value pricing may be utilized include, but are not limited to: (i) a significant event that may affect the securities of a single issuer, such as a merger, bankruptcy, or significant issuer-specific development; (ii) an event that may affect an entire market, such as a natural disaster or significant governmental action; (iii) a nonsignificant event such as a market closing early or not opening, or a security trading halt; and (iv) pricing of a nonvalued security and a restricted or nonpublic security. Special valuation considerations may apply with respect to “odd-lot” fixed-income transactions which, due to their small size, may receive evaluated prices by pricing services which reflect a large block trade and not what actually could be obtained for the odd-lot position. The Funds use systematic fair valuation models provided by independent third parties to value international equity securities in order to adjust for stale pricing, which may occur between the close of certain foreign exchanges and the close of the NYSE.
Trading in securities on European and Far Eastern securities exchanges and over-the-counter markets is normally completed well before the close of business on each business day in New York (i.e., a day on which the NYSE is open). In addition, European or Far Eastern securities trading generally or in a particular country or countries may not take place on all business days in New York. Furthermore, trading takes place in Japanese markets on certain Saturdays and in various foreign markets on days which are not business days in New York and on which a Fund’s NAV is not calculated. A Fund calculates its NAV per share, and therefore effects sales, redemptions, and repurchases of its shares, as of the close of the NYSE once each day on which the NYSE is open. Such calculation may not take place contemporaneously with the determination of the prices of the foreign portfolio securities used in such calculation. If an event that is expected to affect the value of a portfolio security occurs after the close of the principal exchange or market on which that security is traded, and before the close of the NYSE, then that security may be valued in good faith under the Valuation Procedures.
To the extent there are any errors in a Fund’s NAV calculation, Janus Capital may, at its discretion, reprocess individual shareholder transactions so that each shareholder’s account reflects the accurate corrected NAV.
CLOSED FUND POLICIES
Perkins Mid Cap Value Fund
The Fund has limited sales of its shares in certain distribution channels because Janus Capital and the Trustees believe continued sales in these channels are not in the best interests of the Fund. Sales have generally been discontinued for new
75 |
individual retail investors purchasing directly with Janus Capital or through fund supermarket platforms at financial intermediaries. If you are a current Fund shareholder investing directly with Janus Capital or through a fund supermarket platform and close an existing Fund account, you may not be able to make additional investments in the Fund. The Fund may resume sales of its shares at some future date, but it has no present intention to do so.
Existing individual retail investors that have purchased the Fund directly from Janus Capital are permitted to continue purchasing Fund shares through existing accounts (and by opening new Fund accounts) and may reinvest any dividends or capital gains distributions in such accounts, absent highly unusual circumstances. Individual retail investors that have purchased the Fund through fund supermarket platforms with financial intermediaries are permitted to continue purchasing Fund shares through existing accounts and may reinvest any dividends or capital gains distributions in such accounts, absent highly unusual circumstances. Further, Janus Capital encourages its employees to own shares of the Janus funds, and as such, upon prior approval, employees of Janus Capital and its affiliates may open new accounts in the closed Fund, and Trustees of the Janus funds and directors of JCGI may also open new accounts in the closed Fund. Requests for new accounts into the Fund for those channels that are closed to new investors will be reviewed by management on an individual basis, taking into consideration whether the addition to the Fund is believed to negatively impact existing Fund shareholders.
Perkins Small Cap Value Fund
The Fund has limited sales of its shares because Janus Capital and the Trustees believe continued sales are not in the best interests of the Fund. Sales to new investors have generally been discontinued; however, investors who meet certain criteria described below, may be able to purchase shares of the Fund. You may be required to demonstrate eligibility to purchase shares of the Fund before your investment is accepted. If you are a current Fund shareholder and close an existing Fund account, you may not be able to make additional investments in the Fund. The Fund may resume sales of its shares at some future date, but it has no present intention to do so.
Investors who meet the following criteria may be able to invest in the Fund: (i) existing shareholders invested in the Fund are permitted to continue to purchase shares through their existing Fund accounts (and, for shareholders of Class D Shares, by opening new Fund accounts) and to reinvest any dividends or capital gains distributions in such accounts, absent highly unusual circumstances; (ii) registered investment advisers (“RIAs”) may continue to invest in the Fund through an existing omnibus account at a financial institution and/or intermediary on behalf of clients who are current Fund shareholders; (iii) under certain circumstances, all or a portion of the shares held in a closed Fund account may be reallocated to a different form of ownership; this may include, but is not limited to, mandatory retirement distributions, legal proceedings, estate settlements, and the gifting of Fund shares; (iv) it is expected that existing or new participants in employer-sponsored retirement plans, including employees of JCGI and any of its subsidiaries covered under the JCGI retirement plan, that currently offer the Fund as an investment option may direct contributions to the Fund through their plan, regardless of whether the participant invested in such Fund prior to its closing; (v) Janus Capital encourages its employees to own shares of the Janus funds, and as such, upon prior approval, employees of Janus Capital and its affiliates may open new accounts in the closed Fund; Trustees of the Janus funds and directors of JCGI may also open new accounts in the closed Fund; (vi) Janus “fund of funds,” which is a fund that primarily invests in other Janus mutual funds may invest in the Fund; (vii) sponsors of certain wrap programs, including RIAs for fee-based business, with existing accounts in the Fund would be able to continue to invest in the Fund on behalf of existing shareholders; and (viii) in the case of certain mergers or reorganizations, retirement plans may be able to add the closed Fund as an investment option and sponsors of certain wrap programs with existing accounts in the Fund would be able to continue to invest in the Fund on behalf of new customers. Such mergers, reorganizations, acquisitions, or other business combination are those in which one or more companies involved in such transaction currently offers the Fund as an investment option, and any company that as a result of such transaction becomes affiliated with the company currently offering the Fund (as a parent company, subsidiary, sister company, or otherwise). Such companies may request to add the Fund as an investment option under its retirement plan or wrap program. In addition, new accounts may be permitted in the Fund where a retirement plan was negotiating with Janus Capital (and/or certain recognized intermediary distributors) to add the closed Fund at the time Fund closure was announced. Requests for new accounts into a closed Fund will be reviewed by management and may be permitted on an individual basis, taking into consideration whether the addition to the Fund is believed to negatively impact existing Fund shareholders.
76 |
With the exception of Class D Shares and Class I Shares, Shares of the Funds can generally be purchased only through institutional channels such as financial intermediaries and retirement platforms. Class D Shares and Class I Shares may be purchased directly with the Funds in certain circumstances as provided in the Funds’ Prospectuses. Not all financial intermediaries offer all classes. Shares or classes of the Funds may be purchased without upfront sales charges by certain retirement plans and clients of investment advisers, but these clients will typically pay asset-based fees for their investment advisers’ advice, which are on top of the Funds’ expenses. Certain Shares or classes of the Funds may also be purchased without upfront sales charges or transactional charges by persons who invest through mutual fund “supermarket” programs of certain financial intermediaries that typically do not provide investment recommendations or the assistance of an investment professional. For an analysis of fees associated with an investment in each share class or other similar funds, please visit www.finra.org/fundanalyzer. Under certain circumstances, the Funds may permit an in-kind purchase of Class A Shares, Class C Shares, Class I Shares, Class N Shares, Class R Shares, Class S Shares, or Class T Shares.
Certain designated organizations are authorized to receive purchase orders on the Funds’ behalf and those organizations are authorized to designate their agents and affiliates as intermediaries to receive purchase orders. Purchase orders are deemed received by a Fund when authorized organizations, their agents, or affiliates receive the order provided that such designated organizations or their agents or affiliates transmit the order to the Fund within contractually specified periods. The Funds are not responsible for the failure of any designated organization or its agents or affiliates to carry out its obligations to its customers. In order to receive a day’s price, your order for any class of Shares must be received in good order by the close of the regular trading session of the NYSE as described above in “Net Asset Value Determination.” Your financial intermediary may charge you a separate or additional fee for processing purchases of Shares. Your financial intermediary, plan documents, or the Funds’ Prospectuses will provide you with detailed information about investing in the Funds.
Janus has established an Anti-Money Laundering Program (the “Program”) as required by the Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001 (“USA PATRIOT Act”). In an effort to ensure compliance with this law, Janus’ Program provides for the development of internal practices, procedures and controls, designation of anti-money laundering compliance officers, an ongoing training program, and an independent audit function to determine the effectiveness of the Program.
Procedures to implement the Program include, but are not limited to, determining that financial intermediaries have established proper anti-money laundering procedures, reporting suspicious and/or fraudulent activity, checking shareholder names against designated government lists, including the Office of Foreign Asset Control (“OFAC”), and a review of all new account applications. The Trust does not intend to transact business with any person or entity whose identity cannot be adequately verified under the provisions of the USA PATRIOT Act.
Class A Shares
The price you pay for Class A Shares is the public offering price, which is the NAV next determined after a Fund or its agent receives in good order your order plus an initial sales charge, if applicable, based on the amount invested as set forth in the table. The Fund receives the NAV. The sales charge is allocated between your financial intermediary and Janus Distributors, the Trust’s distributor, as shown in the table, except where Janus Distributors, in its discretion, allocates up to the entire amount to your financial intermediary. Sales charges, as expressed as a percentage of offering price, a percentage of your net investment, and as a percentage of the sales charge reallowed to financial intermediaries, are shown in the table. The dollar amount of your initial sales charge is calculated as the difference between the public offering price and the NAV of those shares. Since the offering price is calculated to two decimal places using standard rounding criteria, the number of shares purchased and the dollar amount of your sales charge as a percentage of the offering price and of your net investment may be higher or lower than the amounts set forth in the table depending on whether there was a downward or upward rounding. Although you pay no initial sales charge on purchases of $1,000,000 or more, Janus Distributors may pay, from its own resources, a commission to your financial intermediary on such investments.

As described in the Prospectus, there are several ways you can combine multiple purchases of Class A Shares of the Funds and other Janus funds that are offered with a sales charge to take advantage of lower sales charges.

Class C Shares, Class D Shares, Class I Shares, Class N Shares, Class R Shares, Class S Shares, and Class T Shares
Class C Shares, Class D Shares, Class I Shares, Class N Shares, Class R Shares, Class S Shares, and Class T Shares of the Funds are purchased at the NAV per share as determined at the close of the regular trading session of the NYSE next occurring after a purchase order is received in good order by a Fund or its authorized agent.
Janus Distributors also receives amounts pursuant to Class A Share, Class C Share, Class R Share, and Class S Share 12b-1 plans and, from Class A Shares and Class C Shares, proceeds of contingent deferred sales charges paid by investors upon certain redemptions, as detailed in the “Distribution and Shareholder Servicing Plans” and “Redemptions” sections, respectively, of this SAI.
80 |
Commission on Class C Shares
Janus Distributors may compensate your financial intermediary at the time of sale at a commission rate of up to 1.00% of the NAV of the Class C Shares purchased. Service providers to qualified plans will not receive this amount if they receive 12b-1 fees from the time of initial investment of qualified plan assets in Class C Shares.
DISTRIBUTION AND SHAREHOLDER SERVICING PLANS
Class A Shares, Class R Shares, and Class S Shares
As described in the Prospectuses, Class A Shares, Class R Shares, and Class S Shares have each adopted distribution and shareholder servicing plans (the “Class A Plan,” “Class R Plan,” and “Class S Plan,” respectively) in accordance with Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. The Plans are compensation type plans and permit the payment at an annual rate of up to 0.25% of the average daily net assets of Class A Shares and Class S Shares and at an annual rate of up to 0.50% of the average daily net assets of Class R Shares of a Fund for activities that are primarily intended to result in the sale and/or shareholder servicing of Class A Shares, Class R Shares, or Class S Shares of such Fund, including, but not limited to, printing and delivering prospectuses, statements of additional information, shareholder reports, proxy statements, and marketing materials related to Class A Shares, Class R Shares, and Class S Shares to prospective and existing investors; providing educational materials regarding Class A Shares, Class R Shares, and Class S Shares; providing facilities to answer questions from prospective and existing investors about the Funds; receiving and answering correspondence; complying with federal and state securities laws pertaining to the sale of Class A Shares, Class R Shares, and Class S Shares; assisting investors in completing application forms and selecting dividend and other account options; and any other activities for which “service fees” may be paid under Rule 2830 of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. (“FINRA”) Conduct Rules. Payments under the Plans are not tied exclusively to actual distribution and shareholder service expenses, and the payments may exceed distribution and shareholder service expenses actually incurred. Payments are made to Janus Distributors, the Funds’ distributor, who may make ongoing payments to financial intermediaries based on the value of Fund shares held by such intermediaries’ customers. On December 5, 2008, the Trustees unanimously approved a distribution plan with respect to each of the Class A Shares, Class R Shares, and Class S Shares, which became effective on July 6, 2009.
Class C Shares
As described in the Prospectuses, Class C Shares have adopted a distribution and shareholder servicing plan (the “Class C Plan”) in accordance with Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. The Class C Plan is a compensation type plan and permits the payment at an annual rate of up to 0.75% of the average daily net assets of Class C Shares of a Fund for activities which are primarily intended to result in the sale of Class C Shares of such Fund. In addition, the Plan permits the payment of up to 0.25% of the average daily net assets of Class C Shares of a Fund for shareholder servicing activities including, but not limited to, providing facilities to answer questions from existing investors about the Funds; receiving and answering correspondence; assisting investors in changing dividend and other account options and any other activities for which “service fees” may be paid under Rule 2830 of the FINRA Conduct Rules. Payments under the Class C Plan are not tied exclusively to actual distribution and shareholder service expenses, and the payments may exceed distribution and shareholder service expenses actually incurred. On December 5, 2008, the Trustees unanimously approved the Class C Plan, which became effective on July 6, 2009.
The Plans and any Rule 12b-1 related agreement that is entered into by the Funds or Janus Distributors in connection with the Plans will continue in effect for a period of more than one year only so long as continuance is specifically approved at least annually by a vote of a majority of the Trustees, and of a majority of the Trustees who are not interested persons (as defined in the 1940 Act) of the Trust and who have no direct or indirect financial interest in the operation of the Plans or any related agreements (“12b-1 Trustees”). All material amendments to any Plan must be approved by a majority vote of the Trustees, including a majority of the 12b-1 Trustees, at a meeting called for that purpose. In addition, any Plan may be terminated as to a Fund at any time, without penalty, by vote of a majority of the outstanding Shares of that Class of that Fund or by vote of a majority of the 12b-1 Trustees.
Janus Distributors is entitled to retain all fees paid under the Class C Plan for the first 12 months on any investment in Class C Shares to recoup its expenses with respect to the payment of commissions on sales of Class C Shares. Financial intermediaries will become eligible for compensation under the Class C Plan beginning in the 13th month following the purchase of Class C Shares, although Janus Distributors may, pursuant to a written agreement between Janus Distributors and a particular financial intermediary, pay such financial intermediary 12b-1 fees prior to the 13th month following the purchase of Class C Shares.

For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014, under each Class’ respective Plan, Class A Shares, Class C Shares, Class R Shares, and Class S Shares of the Funds in total paid $15,185,683 to Janus Distributors (substantially all of which Janus Distributors paid out as compensation to broker-dealers and other service providers). The dollar amounts and the manner in which these 12b-1 payments were spent are summarized below.

Redemptions, like purchases, may generally be effected only through institutional channels such as financial intermediaries and retirement platforms. Class D Shares and, in certain circumstances, Class I Shares may be redeemed directly with the Funds. Certain designated organizations are authorized to receive redemption orders on the Funds’ behalf and those organizations are authorized to designate their agents and affiliates as intermediaries to receive redemption orders. Redemption orders are deemed received by a Fund when authorized organizations, their agents, or affiliates receive the order. The Funds are not responsible for the failure of any designated organization or its agents or affiliates to carry out its obligations to its customers.
Certain large shareholders, such as other funds, institutional investors, financial intermediaries, individuals, accounts, and Janus affiliates, may from time to time own (beneficially or of record) or control a significant percentage of a Fund’s Shares. Redemptions by these large shareholders of their holdings in a Fund may cause the Fund to sell portfolio securities at times when it would not otherwise do so, which may negatively impact a Fund’s NAV and liquidity. Similarly, large Fund share purchases may adversely affect a Fund’s performance to the extent that the Fund is delayed in investing new cash and is required to maintain a larger cash position than it ordinarily would. These transactions may also accelerate the realization of taxable income to shareholders if such sales of investments result in gains, and may also increase transaction costs. In addition, a large redemption could result in a Fund’s current expenses being allocated over a smaller asset base, leading to an increase in the Fund’s expense ratio.
Shares normally will be redeemed for cash, although each Fund retains the right to redeem some or all of its shares in-kind under unusual circumstances, in order to protect the interests of remaining shareholders, to accommodate a request by a particular shareholder that does not adversely affect the interests of the remaining shareholders, or in connection with the liquidation of a Fund, by delivery of securities selected from its assets at its discretion. However, each Fund is governed by Rule 18f-1 under the 1940 Act, which requires each Fund to redeem shares solely for cash up to the lesser of $250,000 or 1% of the NAV of that Fund during any 90-day period for any one shareholder. Should redemptions by any shareholder exceed such limitation, a Fund will have the option of redeeming the excess in cash or in-kind. If shares are redeemed in-kind, the redeeming shareholder may incur brokerage costs in converting the assets to cash, whereas such costs are borne by
83 |
the Fund for cash redemptions. The method of valuing securities used to make redemptions in-kind will be the same as the method of valuing portfolio securities described under “Shares of the Trust – Net Asset Value Determination” and such valuation will be made as of the same time the redemption price is determined.
The Funds reserve the right to postpone payment of redemption proceeds for up to seven calendar days. Additionally, the right to require the Funds to redeem their Shares may be suspended, or the date of payment may be postponed beyond seven calendar days, whenever: (i) trading on the NYSE is restricted, as determined by the SEC, or the NYSE is closed (except for holidays and weekends); (ii) the SEC permits such suspension and so orders; or (iii) an emergency exists as determined by the SEC so that disposal of securities or determination of NAV is not reasonably practicable.
Class A Shares
A contingent deferred sales charge (“CDSC”) of 1.00% will be deducted with respect to Class A Shares purchased without a sales load and redeemed within 12 months of purchase, unless waived, as discussed in the Prospectus. Any applicable CDSC will be 1.00% of the lesser of the original purchase price or the value of the redemption of the Class A Shares redeemed.
Class C Shares
A CDSC of 1.00% will be deducted with respect to Class C Shares redeemed within 12 months of purchase, unless waived, as discussed in the Prospectus. Any applicable CDSC will be 1.00% of the lesser of the original purchase price or the value of the redemption of the Class C Shares redeemed.
For the fiscal years ended June 30, unless otherwise noted, the total amounts received by Janus Distributors from the proceeds of contingent deferred sales charges paid by investors upon certain redemptions of Class A Shares and Class C Shares are summarized below.

Processing or Service Fees
Broker-dealers may charge their customers a processing or service fee in connection with the purchase or redemption of Fund shares. Each individual dealer determines and should disclose to its customers the amount and applicability of such a fee. Processing or service fees typically are fixed, nominal dollar amounts and are in addition to the sales and other charges described in the Prospectuses and this SAI. Consult your broker-dealer for specific information about any processing or service fees you may be charged.

Income dividends, capital gains distributions, and tax status
The following is intended to be a general summary of certain U.S. federal income tax consequences of investing in the Funds. It is not intended to be a complete discussion of all such federal income tax consequences, nor does it purport to deal with all categories of investors. This discussion reflects applicable tax laws of the United States as of the date of this SAI. However, tax laws may change or be subject to new interpretation by the courts or the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”), possibly with retroactive effect. Investors are therefore advised to consult with their own tax advisers before making an investment in the Funds.
It is a policy of the Funds to make distributions of substantially all of their respective net investment income and any realized net capital gains at least annually. Any net capital gains realized during each fiscal year, as defined by the Internal Revenue Code, are normally declared and payable to shareholders in December but, if necessary, may be distributed at other times as well. INTECH International Fund, INTECH U.S. Core Fund, INTECH U.S. Growth Fund, INTECH U.S. Value Fund, Perkins Large Cap Value Fund, Perkins Mid Cap Value Fund, Perkins Select Value Fund, and Perkins Small Cap Value Fund declare and make annual distributions of net investment income (if any). Janus Flexible Bond Fund, Janus Global Bond Fund, Janus High-Yield Fund, Janus Multi-Sector Income Fund, Janus Real Return Fund, and Janus Short-Term Bond Fund declare dividends daily and make monthly distributions of net investment income. INTECH Global Dividend Fund and Perkins Value Plus Income Fund declare and make monthly distributions of net investment income. If a month begins on a Saturday, Sunday, or holiday, dividends for daily dividend Funds for those days are declared at the end of the preceding month.
Fund Taxation
The Funds intend to qualify as regulated investment companies by satisfying certain requirements prescribed by Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code. If a Fund failed to qualify as a regulated investment company in any taxable year, the Fund may be subject to federal income tax on its taxable income at corporate rates. In addition, all distributions from earnings and profits, including any distributions of net tax-exempt income and net long-term capital gains, would generally be taxable to shareholders as ordinary income but may, at least in part, qualify for the dividends received deduction applicable to corporations or the reduced rate of taxation applicable to noncorporate holders for “qualified dividend income.” In addition, the Funds could be required to recognize unrealized gains, pay taxes and interest, and make distributions before requalifying as regulated investment companies that are accorded special federal income tax treatment.
A federal excise tax at the rate of 4% will be imposed on the excess, if any, of a Fund’s “required distribution” over actual distributions in any calendar year. Generally, the “required distribution” is 98% of a Fund’s ordinary income for the calendar year plus 98.2% of its capital gain net income recognized during the one-year period ending on October 31 plus undistributed amounts from prior years. Each Fund intends to make distributions sufficient to avoid imposition of the excise tax.
If a Fund invests in certain pay-in-kind securities, zero coupon securities, deferred interest securities, or, in general, any other securities with original issue discounts (or with market discount if the Fund elects to include market discount in income currently), the Fund must accrue income on such investments for each taxable year, which generally will be prior to the receipt of the corresponding cash payments. However, a Fund must distribute to shareholders, at least annually, all or substantially all of its investment company taxable income (determined without regard to the deduction for dividends paid), including such accrued income, to avoid federal income and excise taxes. In certain cases, a Fund may have to distribute cash obtained from other sources in order to satisfy the distribution requirements under the Internal Revenue Code. Therefore, a Fund may have to dispose of its portfolio securities under disadvantageous circumstances to generate cash, or may have to leverage itself by borrowing the cash, to satisfy these distribution requirements.
A Fund may acquire market discount bonds. A market discount bond is a security acquired in the secondary market at a price below its redemption value (or its adjusted issue price if it is also an original issue discount bond). If a Fund invests in a market discount bond, it generally will be required to treat any gain recognized on the disposition of such market discount bond as ordinary income (instead of capital gain) to the extent of the accrued market discount, unless the Fund elects to include the market discount in income as it accrues.
Certain Funds’, particularly Janus High-Yield Fund, Janus Multi-Sector Income Fund, and Janus Real Return Fund, investments in lower-rated or unrated debt securities may present issues for that Fund if the issuers of these securities default on their obligations because the federal income tax consequences to a holder of such securities are not certain.
The Funds may purchase securities of certain foreign corporations considered to be passive foreign investment companies by the Internal Revenue Code. In order to avoid taxes and interest that must be paid by the Funds, the Funds may make various
86 |
elections permitted by the tax laws. However, these elections could require that the Funds recognize taxable income, which in turn must be distributed even though the Funds may not have received any income upon such an event.
Some foreign securities purchased by the Funds may be subject to foreign taxes which could reduce the yield on such securities. If the amount of foreign taxes is significant in a particular year, the Funds that qualify under Section 853 of the Internal Revenue Code may elect to pass through such taxes to shareholders, who will each decide whether to deduct such taxes or claim a foreign tax credit. If such election is not made by a Fund, any foreign taxes paid or accrued will represent an expense to the Fund, which will reduce its investment company taxable income.
Under the Internal Revenue Code, gains or losses attributable to fluctuations in exchange rates which occur between the time a Fund accrues income or receivables or accrues expenses or other liabilities denominated in a foreign currency and the time the Fund actually collects such income or pays such liabilities generally are treated as ordinary income or loss. Similarly, on disposition of debt securities denominated in a foreign currency and on disposition of certain other instruments, gains or losses attributable to fluctuations in the value of the foreign currency between the date of acquisition of the security or contract and the date of disposition also may be treated as ordinary gain or loss. These gains and losses, referred to under the Internal Revenue Code as “Section 988” gains or losses, may increase or decrease the amount of a Fund’s investment company taxable income to be distributed to its shareholders as ordinary income.
A Fund that invests in foreign securities may utilize foreign currency contracts in an effort to limit foreign currency risk. The value of foreign currency contracts can vary widely from month-to-month, which may result in gains one month and losses the next month. If the Fund distributes such gains during a monthly distribution (if applicable) and subsequently realizes foreign currency losses due to exchange rate fluctuations, such distribution could constitute a return of capital to shareholders for federal income tax purposes.
A Fund’s investments in REIT equity securities, if any, may require the Fund to accrue and distribute income not yet received. In order to generate sufficient cash to make the requisite distributions, the Fund may be required to sell securities at a time when fundamental investment considerations would not favor such sales. The Fund’s investments in REIT equity securities may result in the receipt of cash in excess of the REIT’s earnings. If a Fund distributes such amounts, such distribution could constitute a return of capital to shareholders for federal income tax purposes.
Some REITs are permitted to hold “residual interests” in real estate mortgage investment conduits (“REMICs”). Pursuant to the IRS rules, a portion of a Fund’s income from a REIT or “excess inclusion income” that is attributable to the REIT may be subject to federal income tax. Excess inclusion income will normally be allocated to shareholders in proportion to the dividends received by such shareholders. There may be instances in which a Fund may be unaware of a REIT’s excess inclusion income. In general, excess inclusion income allocated to shareholders: (a) cannot be offset by net operating losses (subject to a limited exception for certain thrift institutions); (b) will constitute unrelated business taxable income to entities (including a qualified pension plan, an individual retirement account, a 401(k) plan, a Keogh plan, or other tax-exempt entity) subject to tax on unrelated business income, thereby potentially requiring such an entity that is allocated excess inclusion income, and otherwise might not be required to file a federal income tax return, to file a tax return and pay tax on such income; and (c) in the case of a foreign shareholder, will not qualify for any reduction in U.S. federal withholding tax. In addition, if at any time during any taxable year a “disqualified organization” (as defined by the Internal Revenue Code) is a record holder of a share in a regulated investment company, then the regulated investment company will be subject to a tax equal to that portion of its excess inclusion income for the taxable year that is allocable to the disqualified organization, multiplied by the highest federal income tax rate imposed on corporations. This may impact a Fund’s performance.
Certain transactions involving short sales, futures, options, swap agreements, hedged investments, and other similar transactions, if any, may be subject to special provisions of the Internal Revenue Code that, among other things, may affect the character, amount, and timing of distributions to shareholders. The Funds will monitor their transactions and may make certain tax elections where applicable in order to mitigate the effect of these provisions, if possible.
The application of certain requirements for qualification as a regulated investment company and the application of certain other federal income tax rules may be unclear in some respects in connection with investments in certain derivatives and other investments. As a result, a Fund may be required to limit the extent to which it invests in such investments and it is also possible that the IRS may not agree with a Fund’s treatment of such investments. In addition, the tax treatment of derivatives and certain other investments may be affected by future legislation, treasury regulations, and guidance issued by the IRS (which could apply retroactively) that could affect the timing, character, and amount of a Fund’s income and gains and distributions to shareholders, affect whether a Fund has made sufficient distributions and otherwise satisfied the
87 |
requirements to maintain its qualification as a regulated investment company and avoid federal income and excise taxes, or limit the extent to which a Fund may invest in certain derivatives and other investments in the future.
Generally, the character of the income or capital gains that a Fund receives from another investment company will pass through to the Fund’s shareholders as long as the Fund and the other investment company each qualify as regulated investment companies. However, to the extent that another investment company that qualifies as a regulated investment company realizes net losses on its investments for a given taxable year, a Fund will not be able to recognize its share of those losses until it disposes of shares of such investment company. Moreover, even when a Fund does make such a disposition, a portion of its loss may be recognized as a long-term capital loss, which will not be treated as favorably for federal income tax purposes as an ordinary deduction. In particular, a Fund will not be able to offset any capital losses from its dispositions of shares of other investment companies against its ordinary income. As a result of the foregoing rules, and certain other special rules, it is possible that the amounts of net investment income and net capital gains that a Fund will be required to distribute to shareholders will be greater than such amounts would have been had the Fund invested directly in the securities held by the investment companies in which it invests, rather than investing in shares of the investment companies. For similar reasons, the character of distributions from a Fund (e.g., long-term capital gain, qualified dividend income, etc.) will not necessarily be the same as it would have been had the Fund invested directly in the securities held by the investment companies in which it invests.
Shareholder Taxation
All income dividends and capital gains distributions, if any, on a Fund’s Shares are reinvested automatically in additional shares of the same class of Shares of that Fund at the NAV determined on the first business day following the record date, unless the shareholder has elected to receive distributions in cash. Shareholders will be subject to federal income taxes on distributions made by the Funds whether received in cash or additional shares of the Funds. Distributions from a Fund’s net investment income (which includes dividends, interest, net short-term capital gains, and net gains from foreign currency transactions), if any, generally are taxable to shareholders as ordinary income, unless such distributions are attributable to “qualified dividend income” eligible for the reduced federal income tax rates applicable to long-term capital gains, provided certain holding period and other requirements are satisfied. Dividends received from REITs and certain foreign corporations generally will not constitute qualified dividend income. Distributions of a Fund’s net capital gains (the excess of net long-term capital gains over net short-term capital losses), if any, are taxable as long-term capital gains, regardless of how long shares of the Funds were held. Long-term capital gains are taxable to noncorporate investors at a maximum federal income tax rate of 20%. Dividends paid by a Fund may also qualify in part for the 70% dividends-received deduction available to corporate shareholders, provided that certain holding period and other requirements under the Internal Revenue Code are satisfied. Generally, however, dividends received from most REITs and on stocks of foreign issuers are not eligible for the dividends-received deduction when distributed to the Funds’ corporate shareholders. Distributions from a Fund may also be subject to foreign, state, and local income taxes. Please consult a tax adviser regarding the tax consequences of Fund distributions and to determine whether you will need to file a tax return.
Distributions declared by a Fund during October, November, or December to shareholders of record during such month and paid by January 31 of the following year will be taxable in the year they are declared, rather than the year in which they are received. Each Fund will notify its shareholders each year of the amount and type of dividends and distributions it paid.
Gain or loss realized upon a redemption or other disposition (such as an exchange) of shares of a Fund by a shareholder will generally be treated as long-term capital gain or loss if the shares have been held for more than one year and, if not held for such period, as short-term capital gain or loss.
When a shareholder opens an account, IRS regulations require that the shareholder provide a taxpayer identification number (“TIN”), certify that it is correct, and certify that he, she, or it is not subject to backup withholding. If a shareholder fails to provide a TIN or the proper tax certifications, each Fund is required to withhold 28% of all distributions (including dividends and capital gain distributions) and redemption proceeds paid to the shareholder. Each Fund is also required to begin backup withholding on an account if the IRS instructs it to do so. Amounts withheld may be applied to the shareholder’s federal income tax liability and the shareholder may obtain a refund from the IRS if withholding results in an overpayment of federal income tax for such year.
For taxable years beginning after December 31, 2012, an additional 3.8% Medicare tax is imposed on certain net investment income (including ordinary dividends and capital gain distributions received from a Fund and net gains from redemptions or other taxable dispositions of Fund shares) of U.S. individuals, estates and trusts to the extent that such person’s “modified
88 |
adjusted gross income” (in the case of an individual) or “adjusted gross income” (in the case of an estate or trust) exceeds a threshold amount.
The foregoing discussion relates solely to U.S. federal income tax law as applied to U.S. investors.

The following are the Trustees and officers of the Trust, together with a brief description of their principal occupations during the last five years (principal occupations for certain Trustees may include periods over five years). As of the date of this SAI, none of the Trustees are “interested persons” of Janus Capital as that term is defined by the 1940 Act.
Each Trustee has served in that capacity since he or she was originally elected or appointed. The Trustees do not serve a specified term of office. Each Trustee will hold office until the termination of the Trust or his or her earlier death, resignation, retirement, incapacity, or removal. Under the Funds’ Governance Procedures and Guidelines, the policy is for Trustees to retire no later than the end of the calendar year in which the Trustee turns 72. The Trustees review the Funds’ Governance Procedures and Guidelines from time to time and may make changes they deem appropriate. The Funds’ Nominating and Governance Committee will consider nominees for the position of Trustee recommended by shareholders. Shareholders may submit the name of a candidate for consideration by the Committee by submitting their recommendations to the Trust’s Secretary. Each Trustee is currently a Trustee of one other registered investment company advised by Janus Capital: Janus Aspen Series. As of the date of this SAI, collectively, the two registered investment companies consist of 58 series or funds.
The Trust’s officers are elected annually by the Trustees for a one-year term. Certain officers also serve as officers of Janus Aspen Series. Certain officers of the Funds may also be officers and/or directors of Janus Capital. Fund officers receive no compensation from the Funds, except for the Funds’ Chief Compliance Officer, as authorized by the Trustees.

As discussed below, the Board’s Nominating and Governance Committee is responsible for identifying and recommending candidates for nomination or election by the Board based on a variety of diverse criteria. In its most recent evaluation of the qualifications of each Trustee in 2012, the Committee and the Board considered the totality of the information available to them, including the specific experience, qualifications, attributes or skills, as noted below, and concluded that each of the Trustees should serve as members of the Board of Trustees based on the Trust’s business structure. In reaching these conclusions, the Committee and the Board, in the exercise of their reasonable business judgment, evaluated each Trustee based on his or her specific experience, qualifications, attributes and/or skills on an individual basis and in combination with the other Trustees, none of which by itself was considered dispositive.

General Information Regarding the Board of Trustees and Leadership Structure
The Trust is governed by the Board of Trustees, which is responsible for and oversees the management and operations of the Trust and each of the Janus funds on behalf of fund shareholders. Each member of the Board is an Independent Trustee, including the Board’s Chairman. The Board’s responsibilities include, but are not limited to, oversight of the Janus funds’ officers and service providers, including Janus Capital, which is responsible for the Trust’s day-to-day operations. The Trustees approve all of the agreements entered into with the Janus funds’ service providers, including the investment management agreements with Janus Capital and any applicable subadviser. The Trustees are also responsible for determining or changing each Janus fund’s investment objective(s), policies, and available investment techniques, as well as for overseeing the fund’s Chief Compliance Officer. In carrying out these responsibilities, the Trustees are assisted by the Trust’s independent auditor (who reports directly to the Trust’s Audit Committee), independent counsel, an independent fee consultant, a Trustee
95 |
consultant, and other specialists as appropriate, all of whom are selected by the Trustees. The Trustees also meet regularly without representatives of Janus Capital or its affiliates present.
The Trustees discharge their responsibilities collectively as a Board, as well as through Board committees, each of which operates pursuant to a Board-approved charter that delineates the specific responsibilities of that committee. For example, the Board as a whole is responsible for oversight of the annual process by which the Board considers and approves each fund’s investment advisory agreement with Janus Capital, but specific matters related to oversight of the Janus funds’ independent auditors have been delegated by the Board to its Audit Committee, subject to approval of the Audit Committee’s recommendations by the Board. The members and responsibilities of each Board committee are summarized below. In addition to serving on certain committees, the Chairman of the Board (“Board Chairman”) is responsible for presiding at all meetings of the Board, and has other duties as may be assigned by the Trustees from time to time. The Board Chairman also serves as the Board’s liaison to Janus Capital with respect to all matters related to the Janus funds that are not otherwise delegated to the chair of a Board committee. The Board has determined that this leadership structure is appropriate based on (1) the number of Janus funds overseen and the various investment objectives of those funds; (2) the manner in which the Janus funds’ shares are marketed and distributed; and (3) the responsibilities entrusted to Janus Capital and its affiliates to oversee the Trust’s day-to-day operations, including the management of each Janus fund’s holdings and the distribution of fund shares. On an annual basis, the Board conducts a self-evaluation that considers, among other matters, whether the Board and its committees are functioning effectively and whether, given the size and composition of the Board and each of its committees, the Trustees are able to oversee effectively the number of Janus funds in the complex.
Committees of the Board
The Board of Trustees has six standing committees that each perform specialized functions: an Audit Committee, Brokerage Committee, Investment Oversight Committee, Legal and Regulatory Committee, Nominating and Governance Committee, and Pricing Committee. The table below shows the committee members as of the date of this SAI. The composition of certain committees was different throughout the fiscal year. Each committee is comprised entirely of Independent Trustees. Information about each committee’s functions is provided in the following table:

Board Oversight of Risk Management
Janus Capital, as part of its responsibilities for the day-to-day operations of the Janus funds, is responsible for day-to-day risk management for the funds. The Board, as part of its overall oversight responsibilities for the Janus funds’ operations, oversees Janus Capital’s risk management efforts with respect to the funds. The Board, in the exercise of its reasonable business judgment, also separately considers potential risks that may impact the Janus funds. The Board discharges its oversight duties and considers potential risks in a number of different ways, including, but not limited to, receiving reports on a regular basis, either directly or through an appropriate committee, from Janus Capital and its officers. Reports received include those from, among others, Janus Capital’s (1) senior managers responsible for oversight of global risk; (2) senior managers responsible for oversight of fund construction and trading risk; (3) Chief Compliance Officer; and (4) Director of Internal Audit. At the time these reports are presented, the Board or the committee receiving the report will, as it deems necessary, invite the presenter to participate in an executive session to discuss matters outside the presence of any other officers or representatives of Janus Capital or its affiliates. The Board also receives reports from other entities and individuals unaffiliated with Janus Capital, including reports from the Janus funds’ other service providers and from independent consultants hired by the Board.
Various Board committees also will consider particular risk items as the committee addresses items and issues specific to the jurisdiction of that committee. For example, the Pricing Committee will consider valuation risk as part of its regular oversight responsibilities, and similarly, the Brokerage Committee will consider counterparty risk associated with Janus fund transactions. The Board also may be apprised of particular risk management matters in connection with its general oversight and approval of various Janus fund matters brought before the Board. The Board has appointed a Chief Compliance Officer for the Janus funds (“Fund CCO”) who (1) reports directly to the Board and (2) provides a comprehensive written report annually and presents quarterly at the Board’s regular meetings. The Fund CCO, who also serves as Janus Capital’s Chief Compliance Officer, discusses relevant risk issues that may impact the Janus funds and/or Janus Capital’s services to the funds, and routinely meets with the Board in private without representatives of Janus Capital or its affiliates present. The Fund CCO also provides the Board with updates on the application of the Janus funds’ compliance policies and procedures, including how these procedures are designed to mitigate risk and what, if any, changes have been made to enhance the procedures. The Fund CCO may also report to the Board on an ad hoc basis in the event that he identifies issues associated with the Janus funds’ compliance policies and procedures that could expose the funds to additional risk or adversely impact the ability of Janus Capital to provide services to the funds.
The Board believes that its leadership structure permits it to effectively discharge its oversight responsibilities with respect to the Janus funds’ risk management process.
Additional Information About Trustees
Under the Trust’s Governance Procedures and Guidelines, the Trustees are expected to invest in one or more (but not necessarily all) funds advised by Janus Capital for which they serve as Trustee, to the extent they are directly eligible to do so. These investments may include amounts held under a deferred compensation plan that are valued based on “shadow investments” in such funds. Such investments, including the amount and which funds, are dictated by each Trustee’s individual financial circumstances and investment goals.

(1) | Ownership shown includes amounts held under a deferred compensation plan that are valued based on “shadow investments” in one or more funds. |
The Trust pays each Independent Trustee an annual retainer plus a fee for each regular in-person meeting of the Trustees attended, a fee for in-person meetings of committees attended if convened on a date other than that of a regularly scheduled meeting, and a fee for telephone meetings of the Trustees and committees. In addition, committee chairs and the Chairman of the Board of Trustees receive an additional supplemental retainer. Each current Independent Trustee also receives fees from other Janus funds for serving as Trustee of those funds. Janus Capital pays persons who are directors, officers, or employees of Janus Capital or any affiliate thereof, or any Trustee considered an “interested” Trustee, for their services as Trustees or officers. The Trust and other funds managed by Janus Capital may pay all or a portion of the compensation and related expenses of the Funds’ Chief Compliance Officer and compliance staff, as authorized from time to time by the Trustees.
The following table shows the aggregate compensation paid to each Independent Trustee by the Funds described in this SAI and all Janus Funds for the periods indicated. None of the Trustees receives any pension or retirement benefits from the Funds or the Janus Funds. Effective January 1, 2006, the Trustees established a deferred compensation plan under which the Trustees may elect to defer receipt of all, or a portion, of the compensation they earn for their services to the Funds, in lieu of receiving current payments of such compensation. Any deferred amount is treated as though an equivalent dollar amount has been invested in shares of one or more funds advised by Janus Capital (“shadow investments”).

Material Conflicts
As shown in the table above, certain portfolio managers may manage other accounts with investment strategies similar to the Funds. Those other accounts may include other Janus funds, private-label mutual funds for which Janus Capital serves as subadviser, and separately managed accounts or other pooled investment vehicles, such as hedge funds, which may have materially higher fees than a Fund or may have a performance-based management fee. As such, fees earned by Janus Capital may vary among these accounts. In addition, the portfolio managers may personally invest in some but not all of these accounts, and certain of these accounts may have a greater impact on their compensation than others. Certain portfolio managers may also have roles as research analysts for one or more Janus funds and receive compensation with respect to the analyst role. These factors could create conflicts of interest because a portfolio manager may have incentives to favor certain accounts over others, resulting in the potential for other accounts outperforming a Fund. A conflict may also exist if a portfolio manager identifies a limited investment opportunity that may be appropriate for more than one account, but a Fund is not able to take full advantage of that opportunity due to the need to allocate that opportunity among multiple accounts. In addition, the portfolio manager may execute transactions for another account that may adversely impact the value of securities held by the Fund. However, Janus Capital believes that these conflicts may be mitigated to a certain extent by the fact that accounts with like investment strategies managed by a particular portfolio manager are generally managed in a similar fashion, subject to a variety of exceptions, for example, to account for particular investment restrictions or policies applicable only to certain accounts, certain portfolio holdings that may be transferred in-kind when an account is opened, differences in cash flows and account sizes, and similar factors. In addition, Janus Capital has adopted trade allocation procedures that govern allocation of securities among various Janus accounts. Trade allocation and personal trading are described in further detail under “Additional Information About Janus Capital and the Subadvisers.”
Janus Capital is the adviser to the Funds and the Janus “funds of funds,” which are funds that invest primarily in other Janus Capital mutual funds. Because Janus Capital is the adviser to the Janus “funds of funds” and the Funds, it is subject to certain
99 |
potential conflicts of interest when allocating the assets of a Janus “fund of funds” among such Funds. For example, the Janus “funds of funds” investments have been and may continue to be a significant portion of the investments in other Janus funds, allowing Janus Capital the opportunity to recoup expenses it previously waived or reimbursed for a Fund, or to reduce the amount of seed capital investment needed by Janus Capital for the Janus funds. In addition, the Janus “funds of funds” portfolio managers, Enrique Chang, who also serves as Chief Investment Officer Equities and Asset Allocation of Janus Capital, and Ashwin Alankar, who also serves as Senior Vice President and Head of Asset Allocation and Risk Management of Janus Capital, each have regular and continuous access to information regarding the holdings of the Funds, as well as knowledge of, and potential impact on, investment strategies and techniques of the Funds. In order to help mitigate potential conflicts of interest in the selection of underlying funds, the portfolio managers utilize the Janus Global Allocation Committee to provide input with regard to both broad asset class allocations and underlying fund allocation decisions. Moreover, the Janus Global Allocation Committee seeks input from investment professionals across the Janus Capital/INTECH/Perkins complex who are believed to have specialized knowledge in their respective asset classes. Finally, the Janus Global Allocation Committee utilizes various qualitative and quantitative methods to help ensure that fund selection is consistent with both the portfolio managers’ and the Janus Global Allocation Committee’s intent with regard to desired investment exposures. Janus Capital believes this additional allocation review structure helps mitigate potential conflicts of interest in fund selection and allocation decisions. The Janus Global Risk Committee also analyzes various risks and conflicts relating to the Janus “funds of funds” and other Janus Capital mutual funds.
Compensation Information
The following describes the structure and method of calculating a portfolio manager’s compensation as of June 30, 2014.
The portfolio managers and co-portfolio managers (if applicable), (“portfolio manager” or “portfolio managers”) are compensated for managing a Fund and any other funds, portfolios, or accounts for which they have exclusive or shared responsibilities (collectively, the “Managed Funds”) through two components: fixed compensation and variable compensation.
Fixed Compensation: Fixed compensation is paid in cash and is comprised of an annual base salary. The base salary is based on factors such as individual and Managed Funds’ performance, the complexity of managing funds, scope of responsibility (including assets under management), skills, knowledge, experience, ability, and market competitiveness.
Variable Compensation: Variable compensation is paid in the form of cash and long-term incentive awards (consisting of a mixture of JCGI restricted stock and a cash-deferred award that is credited with income, gains, and losses based on the performance of Janus mutual fund investments selected by the portfolio manager).
A portfolio manager’s variable compensation is discretionary and is determined by Janus Capital management. The overall investment team variable compensation pool is funded by an amount equal to a percentage of Janus Capital’s operating income before the payment of incentive compensation. In determining individual awards, both quantitative and qualitative factors are considered. Such factors include, among other things, consistent short-term and long-term fund performance (i.e., one-, three-, and five-year performance), client support and investment team support through the sharing of ideas, leadership, development, mentoring, and teamwork.
Newly hired portfolio managers may have guaranteed minimum compensation levels for limited periods. Portfolio managers who take on new responsibilities or who are transitioning or have transitioned their responsibilities may also have guaranteed minimum compensation levels for limited periods.
Portfolio managers may elect to defer payment of a designated percentage of their fixed compensation and/or up to all of their variable compensation in accordance with JCGI’s Executive Income Deferral Program.

Material Conflicts
As shown in the table above, the INTECH Funds’ investment personnel may manage other accounts with investment strategies similar to the Funds. Fees earned by the adviser may vary among these accounts, the investment personnel may personally invest in some but not all of these accounts, and certain of these accounts may have a greater impact on the investment personnel’s compensation than others. These factors could create conflicts of interest because the investment personnel may have incentives to favor certain accounts over others, resulting in the potential for other accounts outperforming the Funds. A conflict may also exist if the investment personnel identifies a limited investment opportunity that may be appropriate for more than one account, but a Fund is not able to take full advantage of that opportunity due to the need to allocate that opportunity among multiple accounts. In addition, the investment personnel may execute transactions for another account that may adversely impact the value of securities held by the Funds. However, INTECH believes that these conflicts may be mitigated to a certain extent by the fact that accounts with like investment strategies managed by the investment personnel are generally managed in a similar fashion, subject to a variety of exceptions, for example, to account for particular investment restrictions or policies applicable only to certain accounts, certain portfolio holdings that may be transferred in-kind when an account is opened, differences in cash flows and account sizes, and similar factors. In addition, INTECH generates regular daily trades for all of its clients using proprietary trade system software. Trades are submitted to designated brokers in a single electronic file at one time during the day, pre-allocated to individual clients. If an order is not completely filled, executed shares are allocated to client accounts in proportion to the order. These procedures are described in further detail under “Additional Information About Janus Capital and the Subadvisers.”
Compensation Information
The compensation structure of the investment personnel is determined by INTECH and is summarized by INTECH below. The following describes the structure and method of calculating the investment personnel’s compensation.
For managing the Funds and all other accounts, the investment personnel receive base pay in the form of a fixed annual salary paid by INTECH, which is not based on performance or assets of the Funds or other accounts. The investment personnel are also eligible for annual incentive compensation as determined by INTECH, which is not based on performance or assets of the Funds or other accounts, rather, it is based on overall corporate performance and individual contribution. The investment personnel, as part owners of INTECH, also receive compensation by virtue of their ownership interest in INTECH.
The investment personnel may elect to defer payment of a designated percentage of their fixed compensation and/or up to all of their variable compensation in accordance with JCGI’s Executive Income Deferral Program.

Material Conflicts
As shown in the table above, the Value Funds’ portfolio managers may manage other funds and accounts with investment strategies similar to the Funds. Fees earned by the adviser may vary among these accounts, the portfolio managers may personally invest in some but not all of these accounts, and certain of these accounts may have a greater impact on the portfolio managers’ compensation than others. These factors could create conflicts of interest because a portfolio manager may have incentives to favor certain accounts over others, resulting in the potential for other accounts outperforming the Funds.

Compensation Information
The following describes the structure and method of calculating a portfolio manager’s compensation as of June 30, 2014.
The portfolio managers and co-portfolio managers (“portfolio manager” or “portfolio managers”) are compensated for managing a Fund and any other funds, portfolios, or accounts for which they have exclusive or shared responsibilities (collectively, the “Managed Funds”) through two components: fixed compensation and variable compensation. In addition, certain portfolio managers who have a profits interest in Perkins may receive compensation through those interests.
Fixed Compensation: Fixed compensation is paid in cash and is comprised of an annual base salary based on factors such as the complexity of managing funds and other accounts and scope of responsibility (including assets under management).
Variable Compensation: Variable compensation is paid in the form of cash and long-term incentive awards (potentially consisting of all or a mixture of JCGI restricted stock and/or a cash-deferred award that is credited with income, gains, and
102 |
losses based on the performance of mutual fund investments selected by the portfolio managers). The overall Perkins’ variable compensation pool is funded each year based on Perkins’ profits.
From the overall Perkins’ variable compensation pool described above, variable compensation is paid to a portfolio manager at the discretion of Perkins’ management based primarily on the Managed Funds’ performance, with additional discretionary compensation opportunities based upon, among other things: (i) teamwork and support of team culture; (ii) mentoring of analysts; (iii) contributions to the sales process; (iv) client relationships; and (v) if applicable, CIO duties. The size of the variable compensation pool fluctuates depending on both the revenue derived from firm-wide managed assets and the investment performance of such firm-wide managed assets.

As of September 30, 2014, the officers and Trustees as a group owned approximately 9.0% of Class D Shares of Janus Multi-Sector Income Fund, 1.7% of Class T Shares of Janus Multi-Sector Income Fund, 4.9% of Class D Shares of Janus Real Return Fund, 8.9% of Class D Shares of Perkins Large Cap Value Fund, 15.1% of Class I Shares of Perkins Large Cap Value Fund, 2.8% of Class D Shares of Perkins Select Value Fund, 82.7% of Class I Shares of Perkins Select Value Fund, 7.8% of Class D Shares of Perkins Value Plus Income Fund, 38.8% of Class I Shares of Perkins Value Plus Income Fund, and less than 1% of the outstanding Shares of any other class of each of the other Funds in this SAI. In addition, for certain Funds, seed capital is provided through investment funds managed by Janus Capital and/or its affiliates (“affiliated funds”). These affiliated funds may also invest on an ongoing basis in certain Funds. As of September 30, 2014, the percentage ownership of any person or entity owning 5% or more of the outstanding Shares of any class of the Funds is listed below. In addition, the percentage ownership of any person or entity owning 25% or more of the outstanding Shares of any class of the Funds is listed below. Any person who owns, directly or through one or more controlled companies, more than 25% of the voting securities of a company is presumed to “control” such company. Accordingly, to the extent that a person is identified as the beneficial owner of more than 25% of a Fund, or is identified as the record owner of more than 25% of a Fund and has voting and/or investment powers, that person may be presumed to control such Fund. A controlling person’s vote could have a more significant effect on matters presented to shareholders for approval than the vote of other Fund shareholders. In addition, a large redemption by a controlling person could significantly reduce the asset size of a Fund, which may adversely affect the Fund’s investment flexibility, portfolio diversification, and expense ratio.
To the best knowledge of the Trust, as of September 30, 2014, no other person or entity owned beneficially more than 5% of the outstanding Shares of any class of the Funds, except as shown. Additionally, to the best knowledge of the Trust, except for Janus Capital’s or JCGI’s ownership in a Fund, no other person or entity beneficially owned 25% or more of the outstanding Shares of any class of the Funds, except as shown. To the extent that Janus Capital or a subadviser to any Fund beneficially owns 25% or more of the outstanding Shares of any class of a Fund, Janus Capital or the subadviser may consider the effect of redemptions on the Fund and the Fund’s other shareholders in deciding whether to redeem its Shares. In certain circumstances, Janus Capital’s or JCGI’s ownership may not represent beneficial ownership. To the best knowledge of the Trust, other entities shown as owning more than 25% of the outstanding Shares of a class of a Fund are not the beneficial owners of such Shares, unless otherwise indicated.

(1) | On July 6, 2009, the funds of the Janus Adviser Series trust reorganized into the Trust. As a result, certain Funds described in this SAI assumed the assets and liabilities of the corresponding Janus Adviser Series funds. The Funds involved in the reorganizations previously had a fiscal year end of either October 31 or July 31. Each Fund described in this SAI has a fiscal year end of June 30. |
(2) | On February 16, 2010, the Fund’s Class J Shares (the initial share class) were restructured into two separate share classes. Shareholders who held their shares directly with Janus Capital were transitioned to a newly created share class called “Class D Shares.” Shareholders who held their shares through an intermediary remained in Class J Shares, which was renamed “Class T Shares.” |
Any funds listed in the preceding table that are not marked with footnote (1) or (2) commenced operations after July 6, 2009.
Effective January 28, 2011, Janus Research Core Fund was reorganized into Janus Growth and Income Fund. Effective March 15, 2013, Janus Global Research Fund was reorganized into Janus Worldwide Fund, which was subsequently renamed Janus Global Research Fund. Effective April 5, 2013, Janus World Allocation Fund was reorganized into Janus Global Allocation Fund – Moderate.
Janus Capital reserves the right to the name “Janus.” In the event that Janus Capital does not continue to provide investment advice to the Funds, the Funds must cease to use the name “Janus” as soon as reasonably practicable.
Under Massachusetts law, shareholders of the Funds could, under certain circumstances, be held liable for the obligations of their Fund. However, the Amended and Restated Agreement and Declaration of Trust disclaims shareholder liability for acts or obligations of the Funds and requires that notice of this disclaimer be given in each agreement, obligation, or instrument entered into or executed by the Funds or the Trustees. The Amended and Restated Agreement and Declaration of Trust also provides for indemnification from the assets of the Funds for all losses and expenses of any Fund shareholder held liable for the obligations of their Fund. Thus, the risk of a shareholder incurring a financial loss on account of their liability as a shareholder of one of the Funds is limited to circumstances in which their Fund would be unable to meet its obligations. The possibility that these circumstances would occur is remote. The Trustees intend to conduct the operations of the Funds to avoid, to the extent possible, liability of shareholders for liabilities of their Fund.
It is important to know that, pursuant to the Trust’s Amended and Restated Agreement and Declaration of Trust, the Trustees have the authority to merge, liquidate, and/or reorganize a Fund into another fund without seeking shareholder vote or consent. Any such consolidation, merger, or reorganization may be authorized at any time by a vote of a majority of the Trustees then in office.
The Trust is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest with a par value of one cent per share for each series of the Trust. Shares of each series of the Trust are fully paid and nonassessable when issued. Shares of a Fund participate equally in dividends and other distributions by the Shares of the same class of that Fund, and in residual assets of that class of that Fund in the event of liquidation. Shares of each Fund have no preemptive, conversion, or subscription rights. Shares of each Fund may be transferred by endorsement or stock power as is customary, but a Fund is not bound to recognize any transfer until it is recorded on its books.
The Trust does not intend to hold annual or regular shareholder meetings unless otherwise required by the Amended and Restated Agreement and Declaration of Trust or the 1940 Act. Special meetings may be called for a specific Fund or for the Trust as a whole for purposes such as changing fundamental policies, electing or removing Trustees, making any changes to the Amended and Restated Agreement and Declaration of Trust that would materially adversely affect shareholders’ rights, determining whether to bring certain derivative actions, or for any other purpose requiring a shareholder vote under applicable law or the Trust’s governing documents, or as the Trustees consider necessary or desirable.
Under the Amended and Restated Agreement and Declaration of Trust, special meetings of shareholders of the Trust or of any Fund shall be called subject to certain conditions, upon written request of shareholders owning shares representing at least
126 |
10% of the shares then outstanding. The Funds will assist these shareholders in communicating with other shareholders in connection with such a meeting similar to that referred to in Section 16(c) of the 1940 Act.
The Trustees of the Trust were elected at a Special Meeting of Shareholders on June 10, 2010 (excluding Messrs. Cvengros and Brown, who were subsequently appointed). Under the Amended and Restated Agreement and Declaration of Trust, each Trustee will continue in office until the termination of the Trust or his or her earlier death, retirement, resignation, incapacity, or removal. Vacancies will be filled by appointment by a majority of the remaining Trustees, subject to the 1940 Act.
As a shareholder, you are entitled to one vote for each whole dollar and a proportionate fractional vote for each fractional dollar of NAV of the Fund that you own. Generally, all funds and classes vote together as a single group, except where a separate vote of one or more funds or classes is required by law or where the interests of one or more funds or classes are affected differently from other funds or classes. Shares of all series of the Trust have noncumulative voting rights, which means that the holders of more than 50% of the value of shares of all series of the Trust voting for the election of Trustees can elect 100% of the Trustees if they choose to do so. In such event, the holders of the remaining value of shares will not be able to elect any Trustees.
The Trust may in the future seek to achieve a fund’s objective by investing all of that fund’s assets in another investment company having the same investment objective and substantially the same investment policies and restrictions as those applicable to that fund. Unless otherwise required by law, this policy may be implemented by the Trustees without shareholder approval.

EXPLANATION OF RATING CATEGORIES
The following is a description of credit ratings issued by three of the major credit rating agencies. Credit ratings evaluate only the safety of principal and interest payments, not the market value risk of lower quality securities. Credit rating agencies may fail to change credit ratings to reflect subsequent events on a timely basis. Although Janus Capital and Perkins consider security ratings when making investment decisions, they also perform their own investment analyses and do not rely solely on the ratings assigned by credit agencies.
STANDARD & POOR’S RATINGS SERVICES
Bond Rating | Explanation | |
Investment Grade | ||
AAA | Highest rating; extremely strong capacity to pay principal and interest. | |
AA | High quality; very strong capacity to pay principal and interest. | |
A | Strong capacity to pay principal and interest; somewhat more susceptible to the adverse effects of changing circumstances and economic conditions. | |
BBB | Adequate capacity to pay principal and interest; normally exhibit adequate protection parameters, but adverse economic conditions or changing circumstances more likely to lead to a weakened capacity to pay principal and interest than for higher rated bonds. | |
Non-Investment Grade | ||
BB | Less vulnerable to nonpayment than other speculative issues; major ongoing uncertainties or exposure to adverse business, financial, or economic conditions which could lead to the obligor’s inadequate capacity to meet its financial commitment on the obligation. | |
B | More vulnerable to nonpayment than obligations rated “BB,” but capacity to meet its financial commitment on the obligation; adverse business, financial, or economic conditions will likely impair the obligor’s capacity or willingness to meet its financial commitment on the obligation. | |
CCC | Currently vulnerable to nonpayment, and is dependent upon favorable business, financial, and economic conditions for the obligor to meet its financial commitment on the obligation. | |
CC | Currently highly vulnerable to nonpayment. | |
C | Currently highly vulnerable to nonpayment; a bankruptcy petition may have been filed or similar action taken, but payments on the obligation are being continued. | |
D | In default. |
129 |
FITCH, INC.
Long-Term Bond Rating | Explanation | |
Investment Grade | ||
AAA | Highest credit quality. Denotes the lowest expectation of credit risk. Exceptionally strong capacity for payment of financial commitments. | |
AA | Very high credit quality. Denotes expectations of very low credit risk. Very strong capacity for payment of financial commitments. | |
A | High credit quality. Denotes expectations of low credit risk. Strong capacity for payment of financial commitments. May be more vulnerable to changes in circumstances or in economic conditions than is the case for higher ratings. | |
BBB | Good credit quality. Currently expectations of low credit risk. Capacity for payment of financial commitments is considered adequate, but adverse changes in circumstances and economic conditions are more likely to impair this capacity than is the case for higher ratings. | |
Non-Investment Grade | ||
BB | Speculative. Indicates possibility of credit risk developing, particularly as the result of adverse economic change over time. Business or financial alternatives may be available to allow financial commitments to be met. | |
B | Highly speculative. May indicate distressed or defaulted obligations with potential for extremely high recoveries. | |
CCC | May indicate distressed or defaulted obligations with potential for superior to average levels of recovery. | |
CC | May indicate distressed or defaulted obligations with potential for average or below-average levels of recovery. | |
C | May indicate distressed or defaulted obligations with potential for below-average to poor recoveries. | |
D | In default. |
Short-Term Bond Rating | Explanation | |
F-1+ | Exceptionally strong credit quality. Issues assigned this rating are regarded as having the strongest degree of assurance for timely payment. | |
F-1 | Very strong credit quality. Issues assigned this rating reflect an assurance for timely payment only slightly less in degree than issues rated F-1+. | |
F-2 | Good credit quality. Issues assigned this rating have a satisfactory degree of assurance for timely payments, but the margin of safety is not as great as the F-1+ and F-1 ratings. |
MOODY’S INVESTORS SERVICE, INC.
Bond Rating | Explanation | |
Investment Grade | ||
Aaa | Highest quality, smallest degree of investment risk. | |
Aa | High quality; together with Aaa bonds, they compose the high-grade bond group. | |
A | Upper to medium-grade obligations; many favorable investment attributes. | |
Baa | Medium-grade obligations; neither highly protected nor poorly secured. Interest and principal appear adequate for the present but certain protective elements may be lacking or may be unreliable over any great length of time. | |
Non-Investment Grade | ||
Ba | More uncertain, with speculative elements. Protection of interest and principal payments not well safeguarded during good and bad times. | |
B | Lack characteristics of desirable investment; potentially low assurance of timely interest and principal payments or maintenance of other contract terms over time. | |
Caa | Poor standing, may be in default; elements of danger with respect to principal or interest payments. | |
Ca | Speculative in a high degree; could be in default or have other marked shortcomings. | |
C | Lowest rated; extremely poor prospects of ever attaining investment standing. |
130 |
Unrated securities will be treated as non-investment grade securities unless the portfolio managers and/or investment personnel determine that such securities are the equivalent of investment grade securities. When calculating the quality assigned to securities that receive different ratings from two or more agencies (“split-rated securities”), the security will receive: (i) the middle rating from the three reporting agencies if three agencies provide a rating for the security or (ii) the lowest rating if only two agencies provide a rating for the security.

INTECH Global Dividend Fund (unaudited)
FUND SNAPSHOT We believe we can add value using natural stock price volatility through a mathematically-based, risk-managed process. We do not pick individual stocks or forecast their excess returns, but use natural stock price volatility and correlation characteristics to attempt to generate an excess return. Essentially, we adjust the capitalization weights of a benchmark portfolio to potentially more efficient combinations. | Managed by INTECH Investment Management LLC |
PERFORMANCE OVERVIEW
For the 12-month period ended June 30, 2014, INTECH Global Dividend Fund’s Class I Shares returned 22.09%. This compares to the 24.05% return posted by the MSCI World Index, the Fund’s primary benchmark, for the same time period. The Fund’s secondary benchmark, the MSCI World High Dividend Yield Index, returned 23.04%.
INVESTMENT STRATEGY
INTECH’s mathematical investing process seeks to build a more efficient portfolio than its benchmark, with returns in excess of the index while maintaining benchmark-like risk. The process does not attempt to predict the direction of the market, nor does it have a view of any particular company in the portfolio. Instead, it employs a proprietary optimization process to build portfolios with the potential to outperform the index by capturing stocks’ natural volatility.
Within specific risk controls, INTECH’s disciplined mathematical process establishes target proportional weightings for stocks in the portfolio as a result of an optimization routine. Once the weights are determined and the portfolio is constructed, it is rebalanced and re-optimized on a periodic basis. By limiting the distance any one stock position can deviate from its benchmark weight, INTECH’s process attempts to manage the relative risk of the portfolio. We believe that instituting an investment process aimed at providing consistent, positive excess returns at benchmark-like risk, will allow us to meet our investors’ objectives while minimizing the risk of significant underperformance relative to the benchmark.
PERFORMANCE REVIEW
Relative volatility, which refers to stocks moving in relation to one another and to an index, was fairly stable over the past 12 months. This environment tends to be conducive to INTECH’s investment process.
An overall decrease in market diversity over the past 12 months reflected a change in the distribution of capital, in which larger cap stocks outperformed smaller cap stocks on average. The Fund, which tends to overweight smaller cap stocks as they provide more relative volatility capture potential, faced a headwind from the overall decrease in market diversity over the period.
The Fund’s active sector positioning tends to vary over time and is a function of the volatility and correlation characteristics of the underlying stocks. The Fund’s overweight allocation to the industrials sector contributed to the Fund’s return over the period. However, an underweight to the best-performing energy sector detracted.
In INTECH’s history, which spans more than 27 years, we have experienced periods of both underperformance and outperformance relative to the benchmark. From our perspective, the key is to keep periods of underperformance both short in duration and mild in scope. INTECH aims to achieve excess returns over the long term and we believe the Fund remains well positioned for long-term growth of capital and income.
OUTLOOK
Going forward, we will continue building portfolios in a disciplined and deliberate manner, with risk management remaining the hallmark of our investment process. While we may experience short periods of underperformance, we seek to exceed the benchmark over a three- to five-year time horizon. As INTECH’s ongoing research efforts yield modest improvements, we will continue implementing changes that we believe are likely to improve the long-term results for our clients.
Thank you for your investment in INTECH Global Dividend Fund.

Returns quoted are past performance and do not guarantee future results; current performance may be lower or higher. Investment returns and principal value will vary; there may be a gain or loss when shares are sold. For the most recent month-end performance call 877.33JANUS(52687) (or 800.525.3713 if you hold shares directly with Janus Capital) or visit janus.com/advisor/mutual-funds (or janus.com/allfunds if you hold shares directly with Janus Capital).
Maximum Offering Price (MOP) returns include the maximum sales charge of 5.75%. Net Asset Value (NAV) returns exclude this charge, which would have reduced returns.
CDSC returns include a 1% contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC) on Shares redeemed within 12 months of purchase. NAV returns exclude this charge, which would have reduced returns.

INTECH Global Dividend Fund (unaudited)
Net expense ratios reflect the expense waiver, if any, Janus Capital has contractually agreed to through November 1, 2014.
The proprietary mathematical process used by INTECH Investment Management LLC (“INTECH”) may not achieve the desired results. The rebalancing techniques used by the Fund may result in a higher portfolio turnover rate, higher expenses and potentially higher net taxable gains or losses compared to a “buy and hold” or index fund strategy.
A Fund’s performance may be affected by risks that include those associated with nondiversification, 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 a Fund may also include, but are not limited to, those associated with investing in foreign securities, emerging markets, initial public offerings, real estate investment trusts (REITs), derivatives, short sales, commodity-linked investments and companies with relatively small market capitalizations. Each Fund has different risks. Please see a Janus prospectus for more information about risks, Fund holdings and other details.
Foreign securities are subject to additional risks including currency fluctuations, political and economic uncertainty, increased volatility and differing financial and information reporting standards, all of which are magnified in emerging markets.
Until three years from inception, Janus Capital may recover expenses previously waived or reimbursed if the expense ratio falls below certain limits.
The Fund will normally invest at least 80% of its net assets, measured at the time of purchase, in the type of securities described by its name.
Returns include reinvestment of all dividends and distributions and do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or redemptions of Fund shares. The returns do not include adjustments in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles required at the period end for financial reporting purposes.
Ranking is for the share class shown only; other classes may have different performance characteristics. When an expense waiver is in effect, it may have a material effect on the total return, and therefore the ranking for the period.

See Notes to Schedules of Investments and Other Information for index definitions.
The weighting of securities within the Fund’s portfolio may differ significantly from the weightings within the index. The index is unmanaged and not available for direct investment; therefore its performance does not reflect the expenses associated with the active management of an actual portfolio.

Expense Examples
As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, such as sales charges (loads) on purchase payments (applicable to Class A Shares only); and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and shareholder servicing (12b-1) fees; administrative services fees payable pursuant to the Transfer Agency Agreement; and other Fund expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. The example is based upon an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the six-months indicated, unless noted otherwise in the table and footnotes below.
Actual Expenses
The information in the table under the heading “Actual” provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in these columns, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the appropriate column for your share class under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during the period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The information in the table under the heading “Hypothetical (5% return before expenses)” provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based upon the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. Additionally, for an analysis of the fees associated with an investment in any share class or other similar funds, please visit www.finra.org/fundanalyzer.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transaction costs. These fees are fully described in the Fund’s prospectuses. Therefore, the hypothetical examples are useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transaction costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

† | Expenses Paid During Period are equal to the Net Annualized Expense Ratio multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 181/365 (to reflect the one-half year period). Expenses in the examples include the effect of applicable fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements, if any. Had such waivers and/or reimbursements not been in effect, your expenses would have been higher. Please refer to the Notes to Financial Statements or the Fund’s prospectuses for more information regarding waivers and/or reimbursements. |

INTECH International Fund (unaudited)
FUND SNAPSHOT We believe we can add value using natural stock price volatility through a mathematically-based, risk-managed process. We do not pick individual stocks or forecast their excess returns, but use natural stock price volatility and correlation characteristics to attempt to generate an excess return. Essentially, we adjust the capitalization weights of a benchmark portfolio to potentially more efficient combinations. | Managed by INTECH Investment Management LLC |
PERFORMANCE OVERVIEW
For the 12-month period ended June 30, 2014, INTECH International Fund’s Class I Shares returned 23.21%. This compares to the 23.57% return posted by the MSCI EAFE Index, the Fund’s benchmark.
INVESTMENT STRATEGY
INTECH’s mathematical investing process seeks to build a more efficient portfolio than its benchmark, with returns in excess of the index while maintaining benchmark-like risk. The process does not attempt to predict the direction of the market, nor does it have a view of any particular company in the portfolio. Instead, it employs a proprietary optimization process to build portfolios with the potential to outperform the index by capturing stocks’ natural volatility.
Within specific risk controls, INTECH’s disciplined mathematical process establishes target proportional weightings for stocks in the portfolio as a result of an optimization routine. Once the weights are determined and the portfolio is constructed, it is rebalanced and re-optimized on a periodic basis. By limiting the distance any one stock position can deviate from its benchmark weight, INTECH’s process attempts to manage the relative risk of the portfolio. We believe that instituting an investment process aimed at providing consistent, positive excess returns at benchmark-like risk, will allow us to meet our investors’ objectives while minimizing the risk of significant underperformance relative to the benchmark.
PERFORMANCE REVIEW
Relative volatility, which refers to stocks moving in relation to one another and to an index, was fairly stable over the past 12 months. This environment tends to be conducive to INTECH’s investment process.
An overall decrease in market diversity over the past 12 months reflected a change in the distribution of capital, in which larger cap stocks outperformed smaller cap stocks on average within the Index. The Fund, which tends to overweight smaller cap stocks as they provide more relative volatility capture potential, faced a headwind from the overall decrease in market diversity over the period. However, the Fund benefited from a favorable security selection, which is a residual of the investment process, especially within mid-cap stocks.
The Fund’s active sector positioning tends to vary over time and is a function of the volatility and correlation characteristics of the underlying stocks. The Fund’s underweight allocations to the consumer staples and financials sectors contributed to the Fund’s return over the period. However, an underweight to the best-performing energy sector and an overweight allocation to the consumer discretionary sector detracted.
In INTECH’s history, which spans more than 27 years, we have experienced periods of both underperformance and outperformance relative to the benchmark. From our perspective, the key is to keep periods of underperformance both short in duration and mild in scope. INTECH aims to achieve excess returns over the long term and we believe the Fund remains well positioned for long-term capital growth.
OUTLOOK
Going forward, we will continue building portfolios in a disciplined and deliberate manner, with risk management remaining the hallmark of our investment process. While we may experience short periods of underperformance, we aim to exceed the benchmark over a three- to five-year time horizon. As INTECH’s ongoing research efforts yield modest improvements, we will continue implementing changes that we believe are likely to improve the long-term results for our clients.
Thank you for your investment in INTECH International Fund.

The proprietary mathematical process used by INTECH Investment Management LLC (“INTECH”) may not achieve the desired results. The rebalancing techniques used by the Fund may result in a higher portfolio turnover rate, higher expenses and potentially higher net taxable gains or losses compared to a “buy and hold” or index fund strategy.
A Fund’s performance may be affected by risks that include those associated with nondiversification, 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 a Fund may also include, but are not limited to, those associated with investing in foreign securities, emerging markets, initial public offerings, real estate investment trusts (REITs), derivatives, short sales, commodity-linked investments and companies with relatively small market capitalizations. Each Fund has different risks. Please see a Janus prospectus for more information about risks, Fund holdings and other details.
Foreign securities are subject to additional risks including currency fluctuations, political and economic uncertainty, increased volatility and differing financial and information reporting standards, all of which are magnified in emerging markets.
Returns include reinvestment of all dividends and distributions and do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or redemptions of Fund shares. The returns do not include adjustments in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles required at the period end for financial reporting purposes.
Class A Shares, Class C Shares, Class I Shares, and Class S Shares commenced operations on July 6, 2009, after the reorganization of each class of the predecessor fund into corresponding shares of the Fund. Performance shown for each class for periods prior to July 6, 2009, reflects the historical performance of each corresponding class of the predecessor fund prior to the reorganization, calculated using the fees and expenses of the corresponding class of the predecessor fund respectively, net of any applicable fee and expense limitations or waivers.
Class T Shares commenced operations on July 6, 2009. Performance shown for periods prior to July 6, 2009, reflects the historical performance of the predecessor fund’s Class I Shares, calculated using the fees and expenses of Class T Shares, without the effect of any fee and expense limitations or waivers.
If each share class of the Fund had been available during periods prior to its commencement, the performance shown may have been different. The performance shown for periods following the Fund’s commencement of each share class reflects the fees and expenses of each respective share class, net of any applicable fee and expense limitations or waivers. Please refer to the Fund’s prospectus for further details concerning historical performance.
Ranking is for the share class shown only; other classes may have different performance characteristics. When an expense waiver is in effect, it may have a material effect on the total return, and therefore the ranking for the period.

Expense Examples
As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, such as sales charges (loads) on purchase payments (applicable to Class A Shares only); and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and shareholder servicing (12b-1) fees; administrative services fees payable pursuant to the Transfer Agency Agreement; and other Fund expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. The example is based upon an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the six-months indicated, unless noted otherwise in the table and footnotes below.
Actual Expenses
The information in the table under the heading “Actual” provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in these columns, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the appropriate column for your share class under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during the period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The information in the table under the heading “Hypothetical (5% return before expenses)” provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based upon the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. Additionally, for an analysis of the fees associated with an investment in any share class or other similar funds, please visit www.finra.org/fundanalyzer.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transaction costs. These fees are fully described in the Fund’s prospectus. Therefore, the hypothetical examples are useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transaction costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

INTECH U.S. Core Fund (unaudited)
FUND SNAPSHOT We believe we can add value using natural stock price volatility through a mathematically-based, risk-managed process. We do not pick individual stocks or forecast their excess returns, but use natural stock price volatility and correlation characteristics to attempt to generate an excess return. Essentially, we adjust the capitalization weights of a benchmark portfolio to potentially more efficient combinations. | Managed by INTECH Investment Management LLC |
PERFORMANCE OVERVIEW
For the 12-month period ended June 30, 2014, INTECH U.S. Core Fund’s Class T Shares returned 25.94%. This compares to the 24.61% return posted by the S&P 500 Index, the Fund’s benchmark.
INVESTMENT STRATEGY
INTECH’s mathematical investing process seeks to build a more efficient portfolio than its benchmark, with returns in excess of the index while maintaining benchmark-like risk. The process does not attempt to predict the direction of the market, nor does it have a view of any particular company in the portfolio. Instead, it employs a proprietary optimization process to build portfolios with the potential to outperform the index by capturing stocks’ natural volatility.
Within specific risk controls, INTECH’s disciplined mathematical process establishes target proportional weightings for stocks in the portfolio as a result of an optimization routine. Once the weights are determined and the portfolio is constructed, it is rebalanced and re-optimized on a periodic basis. By limiting the distance any one stock position can deviate from its benchmark weight, INTECH’s process attempts to manage the relative risk of the portfolio. We believe that instituting an investment process aimed at providing consistent, positive excess returns at benchmark-like risk, will allow us to meet our investors’ objectives while minimizing the risk of significant underperformance relative to the benchmark.
PERFORMANCE REVIEW
Relative volatility, which refers to stocks moving in relation to one another and to an index, was fairly stable over the past 12 months. This environment tends to be conducive to INTECH’s investment process.
In addition, an overall increase in market diversity over the past 12 months reflected a change in the distribution of capital, in which smaller stocks outperformed larger stocks. The Fund, which tends to overweight smaller cap stocks as they provide more relative volatility capture potential, benefited from an overall rise in market diversity over the period.
The strategy’s active sector positioning tends to vary over time and is a function of the volatility and correlation characteristics of the underlying stocks. Over the past 12 months, the portfolio’s average active sector positioning detracted from the strategy’s relative return. Specifically, an underweight position to the information technology sector and an overweight position to the consumer discretionary sector detracted from relative performance. However, an overall positive selection more than offset the adverse sector positioning.
In INTECH’s history, which spans more than 27 years, we have experienced periods of both underperformance and outperformance relative to the benchmark. From our perspective, the key is to keep periods of underperformance both short in duration and mild in scope. INTECH aims to achieve excess returns over the long term and we believe the Fund remains well positioned for long-term capital growth.
OUTLOOK
Going forward, we will continue building portfolios in a disciplined and deliberate manner, with risk management remaining the hallmark of our investment process. While we may experience short periods of underperformance, we aim to exceed the benchmark over a three- to five-year time horizon. As INTECH’s ongoing research efforts yield modest improvements, we will continue implementing changes that we believe are likely to improve the long-term results for our clients.
Thank you for your investment in INTECH U.S. Core Fund.

This Fund has a performance-based management fee that may adjust up or down based on the Fund’s performance.
The proprietary mathematical process used by INTECH Investment Management LLC (“INTECH”) may not achieve the desired results. The rebalancing techniques used by the Fund may result in a higher portfolio turnover rate, higher expenses and potentially higher net taxable gains or losses compared to a “buy and hold” or index fund strategy.
A Fund’s performance may be affected by risks that include those associated with nondiversification, 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 a Fund may also include, but are not limited to, those associated with investing in foreign securities, emerging markets, initial public offerings, real estate investment trusts (REITs), derivatives, short sales, commodity-linked investments and companies with relatively small market capitalizations. Each Fund has different risks. Please see a Janus prospectus for more information about risks, Fund holdings and other details.
The Fund will normally invest at least 80% of its net assets, measured at the time of purchase, in the type of securities described by its name.
Returns include reinvestment of all dividends and distributions and do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or redemptions of Fund shares. The returns do not include adjustments in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles required at the period end for financial reporting purposes.
Class A Shares, Class C Shares, and Class S Shares commenced operations on July 6, 2009. Performance shown for each class for periods prior to July 6, 2009, reflects the performance of the Fund’s Class J Shares, the initial share class, calculated using the fees and expenses of each respective share class, without the effect of any fee and expense limitations or waivers.
Class D Shares commenced operations on February 16, 2010. Performance shown for periods prior to February 16, 2010, reflects the performance of the Fund’s former Class J Shares, calculated using the fees and expenses in effect during the periods shown, net of any applicable fee and expense limitations or waivers.
Class I Shares commenced operations on July 6, 2009. Performance shown for periods prior to July 6, 2009, reflects the performance of the Fund’s Class J Shares, calculated using the fees and expenses of Class J Shares, net of any applicable fee and expense limitations or waivers.
If each share class of the Fund had been available during periods prior to its commencement, the performance shown may have been different. The performance shown for periods following the Fund’s commencement of each share class reflects the fees and expenses of each respective share class, net of any applicable fee and expense limitations or waivers. Please refer to the Fund’s prospectuses for further details concerning historical performance.
Ranking is for the share class shown only; other classes may have different performance characteristics. When an expense waiver is in effect, it may have a material effect on the total return, and therefore the ranking for the period.

Expense Examples
As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, such as sales charges (loads) on purchase payments (applicable to Class A Shares only); and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and shareholder servicing (12b-1) fees; administrative services fees payable pursuant to the Transfer Agency Agreement; and other Fund expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. The example is based upon an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the six-months indicated, unless noted otherwise in the table and footnotes below.
Actual Expenses
The information in the table under the heading “Actual” provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in these columns, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the appropriate column for your share class under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during the period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The information in the table under the heading “Hypothetical (5% return before expenses)” provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based upon the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. Additionally, for an analysis of the fees associated with an investment in any share class or other similar funds, please visit www.finra.org/fundanalyzer.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transaction costs. These fees are fully described in the Fund’s prospectuses. Therefore, the hypothetical examples are useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transaction costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

† | Expenses Paid During Period are equal to the Net Annualized Expense Ratio multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 181/365 (to reflect the one-half year period). Expenses in the examples include the effect of applicable fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements, if any. Had such waivers and/or reimbursements not been in effect, your expenses would have been higher. Please refer to the Notes to Financial Statements or the Fund’s prospectuses for more information regarding waivers and/or reimbursements. |

INTECH U.S. Growth Fund (unaudited)
FUND SNAPSHOT We believe we can add value using natural stock price volatility through a mathematically-based, risk-managed process. We do not pick individual stocks or forecast their excess returns, but use natural stock price volatility and correlation characteristics to attempt to generate an excess return. Essentially, we adjust the capitalization weights of a benchmark portfolio to potentially more efficient combinations. | Managed by INTECH Investment Management LLC |
PERFORMANCE OVERVIEW
For the 12-month period ended June 30, 2014, INTECH U.S. Growth Fund’s Class S Shares returned 26.40%. This compares to the 26.92% return posted by the Russell 1000 Growth Index, the Fund’s benchmark.
INVESTMENT STRATEGY
INTECH’s mathematical investing process seeks to build a more efficient portfolio than its benchmark, with returns in excess of the index while maintaining benchmark-like risk. The process does not attempt to predict the direction of the market, nor does it have a view of any particular company in the portfolio. Instead, it employs a proprietary optimization process to build portfolios with the potential to outperform the index by capturing stocks’ natural volatility.
Within specific risk controls, INTECH’s disciplined mathematical process establishes target proportional weightings for stocks in the portfolio as a result of an optimization routine. Once the weights are determined and the portfolio is constructed, it is rebalanced and re-optimized on a periodic basis. By limiting the distance any one stock position can deviate from its benchmark weight, INTECH’s process attempts to manage the relative risk of the portfolio. We believe that instituting an investment process aimed at providing consistent, positive excess returns at benchmark-like risk, will allow us to meet our investors’ objectives while minimizing the risk of significant underperformance relative to the benchmark.
PERFORMANCE REVIEW
Relative volatility, which refers to stocks moving in relation to one another and to an index, was fairly stable over the past 12 months. This environment tends to be conducive to INTECH’s investment process.
In addition, an overall increase in market diversity over the past 12 months reflected a change in the distribution of capital, in which smaller stocks outperformed larger stocks on average. The Fund, which tends to overweight smaller cap stocks as they provide more relative volatility capture potential, benefited from an overall rise in market diversity over the period.
The strategy’s active sector positioning tends to vary over time and is a function of the volatility and correlation characteristics of the underlying stocks. Over the past 12 months, the portfolio’s average active sector positioning detracted from the strategy’s relative return. Specifically, an underweight position to one of the best performing sectors (information technology) and an overweight position to financials detracted from relative performance.
In INTECH’s history, which spans more than 27 years, we have experienced periods of both underperformance and outperformance relative to the benchmark. From our perspective, the key is to keep periods of underperformance both short in duration and mild in scope. INTECH aims to achieve excess returns over the long term and we believe the Fund remains well positioned for long-term capital growth.
INVESTMENT STRATEGY AND OUTLOOK
Going forward, we will continue building portfolios in a disciplined and deliberate manner, with risk management remaining the hallmark of our investment process. While we may experience short periods of underperformance, we aim to exceed the benchmark over a three- to five-year time horizon. As INTECH’s ongoing research efforts yield modest improvements, we will continue implementing changes that we believe are likely to improve the long-term results for our clients.
Thank you for your investment in INTECH U.S. Growth Fund.

The proprietary mathematical process used by INTECH Investment Management LLC (“INTECH”) may not achieve the desired results. The rebalancing techniques used by the Fund may result in a higher portfolio turnover rate, higher expenses and potentially higher net taxable gains or losses compared to a “buy and hold” or index fund strategy.
A Fund’s performance may be affected by risks that include those associated with nondiversification, 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 a Fund may also include, but are not limited to, those associated with investing in foreign securities, emerging markets, initial public offerings, real estate investment trusts (REITs), derivatives, short sales, commodity-linked investments and companies with relatively small market capitalizations. Each Fund has different risks. Please see a Janus prospectus for more information about risks, Fund holdings and other details.
The Fund will normally invest at least 80% of its net assets, measured at the time of purchase, in the type of securities described by its name.
Returns include reinvestment of all dividends and distributions and do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or redemptions of Fund shares. The returns do not include adjustments in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles required at the period end for financial reporting purposes.
Class A Shares, Class C Shares, Class I Shares, and Class S Shares commenced operations on July 6, 2009 after the reorganization of each class of the predecessor fund into corresponding shares of the Fund.
Performance shown for Class A Shares reflects the historical performance of the predecessor fund’s Class A Shares from September 30, 2004 to July 6, 2009 (prior to the reorganization), calculated using the fees and expenses of the predecessor fund’s Class A Shares, net of any applicable fee and expense limitations or waivers. Performance shown for certain periods prior to September 30, 2004, reflects the historical performance of the predecessor fund’s Class S Shares (formerly named Class I Shares), calculated using the fees and expenses of Class S Shares of the predecessor fund, net of any applicable fee and expense limitations or waivers.
Performance shown for Class C Shares and Class S Shares for periods prior to July 6, 2009, reflects the historical performance of each corresponding class of the predecessor fund respectively prior to the reorganization, calculated using the fees and expenses of the corresponding class of the predecessor fund respectively, net of any applicable fee and expense limitations or waivers.
Performance shown for Class I Shares reflects the performance of the predecessor fund’s Class I Shares from November 28, 2005 to July 6, 2009 (prior to the reorganization), calculated using the fees and expenses of the predecessor fund’s Class I Shares, net of any applicable fee and expense limitations or waivers. Performance shown for certain periods prior to November 28, 2005, reflects the historical performance of the predecessor fund’s Class S Shares (formerly named Class I Shares), calculated using the fees and expenses of Class S Shares of the predecessor fund, net of any applicable fee and expense limitations or waivers.

Expense Examples
As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, such as sales charges (loads) on purchase payments (applicable to Class A Shares only); and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and shareholder servicing (12b-1) fees; administrative services fees payable pursuant to the Transfer Agency Agreement; and other Fund expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. The example is based upon an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the six-months indicated, unless noted otherwise in the table and footnotes below.
Actual Expenses
The information in the table under the heading “Actual” provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in these columns, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the appropriate column for your share class under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during the period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The information in the table under the heading “Hypothetical (5% return before expenses)” provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based upon the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. Additionally, for an analysis of the fees associated with an investment in any share class or other similar funds, please visit www.finra.org/fundanalyzer.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transaction costs. These fees are fully described in the Fund’s prospectus. Therefore, the hypothetical examples are useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transaction costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

INTECH U.S. Value Fund (unaudited)
FUND SNAPSHOT We believe we can add value using natural stock price volatility through a mathematically-based, risk-managed process. We do not pick individual stocks or forecast their excess returns, but use natural stock price volatility and correlation characteristics to attempt to generate an excess return. Essentially, we adjust the capitalization weights of a benchmark portfolio to potentially more efficient combinations. | Managed by INTECH Investment Management LLC |
PERFORMANCE OVERVIEW
For the 12-month period ended June 30, 2014, INTECH U.S. Value Fund’s Class I Shares returned 25.48%. This compares to the 23.81% return posted by the Russell 1000 Value Index, the Fund’s benchmark.
INVESTMENT STRATEGY
INTECH’s mathematical investing process seeks to build a more efficient portfolio than its benchmark, with returns in excess of the index while maintaining benchmark-like risk. The process does not attempt to predict the direction of the market, nor does it have a view of any particular company in the portfolio. Instead, it employs a proprietary optimization process to build portfolios with the potential to outperform the index by capturing stocks’ natural volatility.
Within specific risk controls, INTECH’s disciplined mathematical process establishes target proportional weightings for stocks in the portfolio as a result of an optimization routine. Once the weights are determined and the portfolio is constructed, it is rebalanced and re-optimized on a periodic basis. By limiting the distance any one stock position can deviate from its benchmark weight, INTECH’s process attempts to manage the relative risk of the portfolio. We believe that instituting an investment process aimed at providing consistent, positive excess returns at benchmark-like risk, will allow us to meet our investors’ objectives while minimizing the risk of significant underperformance relative to the benchmark.
During the second quarter of 2014, as a result of INTECH’s ongoing research efforts, INTECH adjusted the optimization of the Fund. This change aims to potentially increase the Fund’s long-term excess return over the benchmark. This adjustment does not reflect a change in the underlying mathematical theory on which the investment process is based.
PERFORMANCE REVIEW
Relative volatility, which refers to stocks moving in relation to one another and to an index, was fairly stable over the past 12 months. This environment tends to be conducive to INTECH’s investment process.
In addition, an overall increase in market diversity over the past 12 months reflected a change in the distribution of capital, in which smaller stocks outperformed larger stocks. INTECH U.S. Value Fund, which tends to overweight smaller cap stocks as they provide more relative volatility capture potential, benefited from an overall rise in market diversity over the period.
The strategy’s active sector positioning tends to vary over time and is a function of the volatility and correlation characteristics of the underlying stocks. The Fund was underweight on average the best-performing materials sector over the period, which detracted from relative performance. However, the Fund was also overweight on average the information technology and underweight the utilities sector, which contributed, and overall the portfolio’s average active sector positioning contributed to the strategy’s relative return.
In INTECH’s history, which spans more than 27 years, we have experienced periods of both underperformance and outperformance relative to the benchmark. From our perspective, the key is to keep periods of underperformance both short in duration and mild in scope. INTECH aims to achieve excess returns over the long term and we believe the Fund remains well positioned for long-term capital growth.
OUTLOOK
Going forward, we will continue building portfolios in a disciplined and deliberate manner, with risk management remaining the hallmark of our investment process. While we may experience short periods of underperformance, we seek to exceed the benchmark over a three- to five-year time horizon. As INTECH’s ongoing research efforts yield modest improvements, we will continue implementing

changes that we believe are likely to improve the long-term results for our clients.

The rebalancing techniques used by the Fund may result in a higher portfolio turnover rate, higher expenses and potentially higher net taxable gains or losses compared to a “buy and hold” or index fund strategy.
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 a Fund may also include, but are not limited to, those associated with investing in foreign securities, emerging markets, initial public offerings, real estate investment trusts (REITs), derivatives, short sales, commodity-linked investments and companies with relatively small market capitalizations. Each Fund has different risks. Please see a Janus prospectus for more information about risks, Fund holdings and other details.
The Fund will normally invest at least 80% of its net assets, measured at the time of purchase, in the type of securities described by its name.
Returns include reinvestment of all dividends and distributions and do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or redemptions of Fund shares. The returns do not include adjustments in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles required at the period end for financial reporting purposes.
Class A Shares, Class C Shares, Class I Shares, and Class S Shares commenced operations on July 6, 2009, after the reorganization of each class of the predecessor fund into corresponding shares of the Fund. Performance shown for each class for periods prior to July 6, 2009, reflects the historical performance of each corresponding class of the predecessor fund prior to the reorganization, calculated using the fees and expenses of the corresponding class of the predecessor fund respectively, net of any applicable fee and expense limitations or waivers.
Class T Shares commenced operations on July 6, 2009. Performance shown for periods prior to July 6, 2009, reflects the historical performance of the predecessor fund’s Class I Shares, calculated using the fees and expenses of Class T Shares, without the effect of any fee and expense limitations or waivers.
If each share class of the Fund had been available during periods prior to its commencement, the performance shown may have been different. The performance shown for periods following the Fund’s commencement of each share class reflects the fees and expenses of each respective share class, net of any applicable fee and expense limitations or waivers. Please refer to the Fund’s prospectuses for further details concerning historical performance.
Ranking is for the share class shown only; other classes may have different performance characteristics. When an expense waiver is in effect, it may have a material effect on the total return, and therefore the ranking for the period.

See Notes to Schedules of Investments and Other Information for index definitions.
The weighting of securities within the Fund’s portfolio may differ significantly from the weightings within the index. The index is unmanaged and not available for direct investment; therefore its performance does not reflect the expenses associated with the active management of an actual portfolio.

Expense Examples
As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, such as sales charges (loads) on purchase payments (applicable to Class A Shares only); and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and shareholder servicing (12b-1) fees; administrative services fees payable pursuant to the Transfer Agency Agreement; and other Fund expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. The example is based upon an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the six-months indicated, unless noted otherwise in the table and footnotes below.
Actual Expenses
The information in the table under the heading “Actual” provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in these columns, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the appropriate column for your share class under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during the period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The information in the table under the heading “Hypothetical (5% return before expenses)” provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based upon the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. Additionally, for an analysis of the fees associated with an investment in any share class or other similar funds, please visit www.finra.org/fundanalyzer.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transaction costs. These fees are fully described in the Fund’s prospectus. Therefore, the hypothetical examples are useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transaction costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

† | Expenses Paid During Period are equal to the Net Annualized Expense Ratio multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 181/365 (to reflect the one-half year period). Expenses in the examples include the effect of applicable fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements, if any. Had such waivers and/or reimbursements not been in effect, your expenses would have been higher. Please refer to the Notes to Financial Statements or the Fund’s prospectus for more information regarding waivers and/or reimbursements. |

The following section describes the organization and significant accounting policies and provides more detailed information about the schedules and tables that appear throughout this report. In addition, the Notes to Financial Statements explain the methods used in preparing and presenting this report.
1. | Organization and Significant Accounting Policies |
INTECH Global Dividend Fund, INTECH International Fund, INTECH U.S. Core Fund, INTECH U.S. Growth Fund and INTECH U.S. Value Fund (individually, a “Fund” and collectively, the “Funds”) are series funds. The Funds are part of Janus Investment Fund (the “Trust”), which is organized as a Massachusetts business trust and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. The financial statements include information for the year ended June 30, 2014. The Trust offers forty-six funds which include multiple series of shares, with differing investment objectives and policies. The Funds invest primarily in common stocks. Each Fund in this report is classified as diversified, as defined in the 1940 Act.
Each Fund in this report offers multiple classes of shares in order to meet the needs of various types of investors. Each class represents an interest in the same portfolio of investments. Certain financial intermediaries may not offer all classes of shares.
Class A Shares and Class C Shares are generally offered through financial intermediary platforms including, but not limited to, traditional brokerage platforms, mutual fund wrap fee programs, bank trust platforms, and retirement platforms. The maximum purchase in Class C Shares is $500,000 for any single purchase.
Class D Shares are generally no longer being made available to new investors who do not already have a direct account with the Janus funds. Class D Shares are available only to investors who hold accounts directly with the Janus funds, to immediate family members or members of the same household of an eligible individual investor, and to existing beneficial owners of sole proprietorships or partnerships that hold accounts directly with the Janus funds.
Class I Shares are available through certain financial intermediary platforms including, but not limited to, mutual fund wrap fee programs, managed account programs, asset allocation programs, and bank trust platforms, as well as certain retirement platforms. Class I Shares are also available to certain institutional investors including, but not limited to, corporations, certain retirement plans, public plans, and foundations/endowments.
Class S Shares are offered through financial intermediary platforms including, but not limited to, retirement platforms and asset allocation, mutual fund wrap, or other discretionary or nondiscretionary fee-based investment advisory programs. In addition, Class S Shares may be available through certain financial intermediaries who have an agreement with Janus Capital Management LLC (“Janus Capital”) or its affiliates to offer Class S Shares on their supermarket platforms.
Class T Shares are available through certain financial intermediary platforms including, but not limited to, mutual fund wrap fee programs, managed account programs, asset allocation programs, bank trust platforms, as well as certain retirement platforms. In addition, Class T Shares may be available through certain financial intermediaries who have an agreement with Janus Capital or its affiliates to offer Class T Shares on their supermarket platforms.
The following accounting policies have been followed by the Funds and are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Investment Valuation
Securities held by the Funds are valued in accordance with policies and procedures established by and under the supervision of the Trustees (the “Valuation Procedures”). Equity securities traded on a domestic securities exchange are generally valued at the closing prices on the primary market or exchange on which they trade. If such price is lacking for the trading period immediately preceding the time of determination, such securities are valued at their current bid price. Equity securities that are traded on a foreign exchange are generally valued at the closing prices on such markets. In the event that there is no current trading volume on a particular security in such foreign exchange, the bid price from the primary exchange is generally used to value the security. Securities that are traded on the over-the-counter (“OTC”) markets are generally valued at their closing or latest bid prices as available. Foreign securities and currencies are converted to U.S. dollars using the applicable exchange rate in effect at the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”). Each Fund will determine the market value of individual securities held by it by using prices provided by one or more professional pricing services which may provide market prices to other funds or, as needed, by obtaining market quotations from independent broker-dealers. Short-term securities maturing within 60 days or less are valued on an amortized cost basis. Debt securities with a remaining maturity of greater than 60 days are valued in accordance with the evaluated bid price supplied by the pricing service that is intended to reflect market value. The evaluated bid price supplied by the pricing service is an evaluation that may consider factors such as security
80 | JUNE 30, 2014
prices, yields, maturities and ratings. Securities for which market quotations or evaluated prices are not readily available or deemed unreliable are valued at fair value determined in good faith under the Valuation Procedures. Circumstances in which fair value pricing may be utilized include, but are not limited to: (i) a significant event that may affect the securities of a single issuer, such as a merger, bankruptcy, or significant issuer-specific development; (ii) an event that may affect an entire market, such as a natural disaster or significant governmental action; (iii) a nonsignificant event such as a market closing early or not opening, or a security trading halt; and (iv) pricing of a nonvalued security and a restricted or nonpublic security. The Funds use systematic fair valuation models provided by independent third parties to value international equity securities in order to adjust for stale pricing, which may occur between the close of certain foreign exchanges and the close of the NYSE.
Investment Transactions and Investment Income
Investment transactions are accounted for as of the date purchased or sold (trade date). Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Certain dividends from foreign securities will be recorded as soon as the Trust is informed of the dividend, if such information is obtained subsequent to the ex-dividend date. Dividends from foreign securities may be subject to withholding taxes in foreign jurisdictions. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis and includes amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts. Gains and losses are determined on the identified cost basis, which is the same basis used for federal income tax purposes. Income, as well as gains and losses, both realized and unrealized, are allocated daily to each class of shares based upon the ratio of net assets represented by each class as a percentage of total net assets.
Expenses
Each Fund bears expenses incurred specifically on its behalf, as well as a portion of general expenses, which may be allocated pro rata to each Fund. Each class of shares bears a portion of general expenses, which are allocated daily to each class of shares based upon the ratio of net assets represented by each class as a percentage of total net assets. Expenses directly attributable to a specific class of shares are charged against the operations of such class.
Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Indemnifications
In the normal course of business, the Funds may enter into contracts that contain provisions for indemnification of other parties against certain potential liabilities. A Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, and would involve future claims that may be made against a Fund that have not yet occurred. Currently, the risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.
Foreign Currency Translations
The Funds do not isolate that portion of the results of operations resulting from the effect of changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from the fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held at the date of the financial statements. Net unrealized appreciation or depreciation of investments and foreign currency translations arise from changes in the value of assets and liabilities, including investments in securities held at the date of the financial statements, resulting from changes in the exchange rates and changes in market prices of securities held.
Currency gains and losses are also calculated on payables and receivables that are denominated in foreign currencies. The payables and receivables are generally related to foreign security transactions and income translations.
Foreign currency-denominated assets and forward currency contracts may involve more risks than domestic transactions, including currency risk, political and economic risk, regulatory risk and equity risk. Risks may arise from the potential inability of a counterparty to meet the terms of a contract and from unanticipated movements in the value of foreign currencies relative to the U.S. dollar.
Dividend Distributions
Dividends of net investment income for INTECH Global Dividend Fund are generally declared and distributed monthly, and realized capital gains (if any) are distributed annually. The other Funds generally declare and distribute dividends of net investment income and realized capital gains (if any) annually.
The Funds may make certain investments in real estate investment trusts (“REITs”) which pay dividends to their shareholders based upon funds available from operations. It is quite common for these dividends to exceed the REITs’ taxable earnings and profits, resulting in the excess
Janus Mathematical Funds | 81
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
portion of such dividends being designated as a return of capital. If the Funds distribute such amounts, such distributions could constitute a return of capital to shareholders for federal income tax purposes.
Federal Income Taxes
Each Fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company and distribute all of its taxable income in accordance with the requirements of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code. Management has analyzed each Fund’s tax positions taken for all open federal income tax years, generally a three-year period, and has concluded that no provision for federal income tax is required in the Funds’ financial statements. The Funds are not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months.
Valuation Inputs Summary
In accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) standard guidance, the Funds utilize the “Fair Value Measurements” to define fair value, establish a framework for measuring fair value, and expand disclosure requirements regarding fair value measurements. The Fair Value Measurement Standard does not require new fair value measurements, but is applied to the extent that other accounting pronouncements require or permit fair value measurements. This standard emphasizes that fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. Various inputs are used in determining the value of the Funds’ investments defined pursuant to this standard. These inputs are summarized into three broad levels:
Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.
Level 2 – Prices determined using other significant observable inputs. Observable inputs are inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing a security and are developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity. These may include quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, and others.
Debt securities may be valued in accordance with the evaluated bid price supplied by the pricing service and generally categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. Securities traded on OTC markets and listed securities for which no sales are reported are valued at the latest bid price (or yield equivalent thereof) obtained from one or more dealers transacting in a market for such securities or by a pricing service approved by the Funds’ Trustees and are categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. Short-term securities with maturities of 60 days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value and are categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. Other securities that may be categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy include, but are not limited to, preferred stocks, bank loans, swaps, investments in unregistered investment companies, options, and forward contracts. The Funds use systematic fair valuation models provided by independent third parties to value international equity securities in order to adjust for stale pricing, which may occur between the close of certain foreign exchanges and the close of the NYSE. These are generally categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy.
Level 3 – Prices determined using significant unobservable inputs. In situations where quoted prices or observable inputs are unavailable or deemed less relevant (for example, when there is little or no market activity for an investment at the end of the period), unobservable inputs may be used. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions about the factors market participants would use in pricing the security and would be based on the best information available under the circumstances.
There have been no significant changes in valuation techniques used in valuing any such positions held by the Funds since the beginning of the fiscal year.
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. The summary of inputs used as of June 30, 2014 to value the Funds’ investments in securities and other financial instruments is included in the “Valuation Inputs Summary” in the Notes to Schedules of Investments and Other Information.
The following table shows the amounts of transfers between Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy during the year. The Funds recognize transfers between the levels as of the beginning of the fiscal year.

2. | Other Investments and Strategies |
Additional Investment Risk
The financial crisis that began in 2008 caused a significant decline in the value and liquidity of many securities of issuers worldwide in the equity and fixed-income/credit markets. In response to the crisis, the United States and certain foreign governments, along with the U.S. Federal Reserve and certain foreign central banks took steps to support the financial markets. The withdrawal of this support, a failure of measures put in place to respond to the crisis, or investor perception that such efforts were not sufficient each could negatively affect financial markets generally, and the value and liquidity of specific securities. In addition, policy and legislative changes in the United States and in other countries continue to impact many aspects of financial regulation. The effect of these changes on the markets, and the practical implications for market participants, including a Fund, may not be fully known for some time. As a result, it may also be unusually difficult to identify both investment risks and opportunities, which could limit or preclude a Fund’s ability to achieve its investment objective. Therefore, it is important to understand that the value of your investment may fall, sometimes sharply, and you could lose money.
The enactment of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the “Dodd-Frank Act”) in July 2010 provided for widespread regulation of financial institutions, consumer financial products and services, broker-dealers, OTC derivatives, investment advisers, credit rating agencies, and mortgage lending, which expands federal oversight in the financial sector, including the investment management industry. Many provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act remain pending and will be implemented through future rulemaking. Therefore, the ultimate impact of the Dodd-Frank Act and the regulations under the Dodd-Frank Act on the Funds and the investment management industry as a whole, is not yet certain.
A number of countries in the European Union (“EU”) have experienced severe economic and financial difficulties. As a result, financial markets in the EU have been subject to increased volatility and declines in asset values and liquidity. Responses to these financial problems by European governments, central banks, and others, including austerity measures and reforms, may not work, may result in social unrest, and may limit future growth and economic recovery or have other unintended consequences. Further defaults or restructuring by governments and others of their debt could have additional adverse effects on economies, financial markets, and asset valuations around the world.
Certain areas of the world have historically been prone to and economically sensitive to environmental events such as, but not limited to, hurricanes, earthquakes, typhoons, flooding, tidal waves, tsunamis, erupting volcanoes, wildfires or droughts, tornadoes, mudslides, or other weather-related phenomena. Such disasters, and the resulting physical or economic damage, could have a severe and negative impact on a Fund’s investment portfolio and, in the longer term, could impair the ability of issuers in which the Fund invests to conduct their businesses as they would under normal conditions. Adverse weather conditions may also have a particularly significant negative effect on issuers in the agricultural sector and on insurance companies that insure against the impact of natural disasters.
Counterparties
Fund transactions involving a counterparty are subject to the risk that the counterparty or a third party will not fulfill its obligation to a Fund (“counterparty risk”). Counterparty risk may arise because of the counterparty’s financial condition (i.e., financial difficulties, bankruptcy, or insolvency), market activities and developments, or other reasons, whether foreseen or not. A counterparty’s inability to fulfill its obligation may result in significant financial loss to a Fund. A Fund may be unable to recover its investment from the counterparty or may obtain a limited recovery, and/or recovery may be delayed. The extent of a Fund’s exposure to counterparty risk in respect to financial assets approximates its carrying value as recorded on the Fund’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
A Fund may be exposed to counterparty risk through participation in various programs including, but not limited to, lending its securities to third parties, cash sweep arrangements whereby a Fund’s cash balance is invested in one or more types of cash management vehicles, as well as investments in, but not limited to, repurchase agreements, debt securities, and derivatives, including various types of swaps, futures and options. A Fund intends to enter into financial transactions with counterparties that Janus Capital believes to be creditworthy at the time of the transaction. There is always the risk that Janus Capital’s analysis of a counterparty’s creditworthiness is incorrect or may change due to market conditions. To the extent that a Fund focuses its transactions with a limited number of counterparties, it will have greater exposure to the risks associated with one or more counterparties.
Offsetting Assets and Liabilities
The Funds present gross and net information about transactions that are either offset in the financial statements or subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement or similar agreement with a designated

counterparty, regardless of whether the transactions are actually offset in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities.
In order to better define its contractual rights and to secure rights that will help a Fund mitigate its counterparty risk, a Fund may enter into an International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. Master Agreement (“ISDA Master Agreement”) or similar agreement with its derivative contract counterparties. An ISDA Master Agreement is a bilateral agreement between a Fund and a counterparty that governs OTC derivatives and forward foreign currency exchange contracts and typically contains, among other things, collateral posting terms and netting provisions in the event of a default and/or termination event. Under an ISDA Master Agreement, in the event of a default and/or termination event, a Fund may offset with each counterparty certain derivative financial instrument’s payables and/or receivables with collateral held and/or posted and create one single net payment. Note that for financial reporting purposes, a Fund does not offset certain derivative financial instrument’s payables and receivables and related collateral on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities.
The following tables present gross amounts of recognized assets and liabilities and the net amounts after deducting collateral that has been pledged by counterparties or has been pledged to counterparties (if applicable).

Deutsche Bank AG acts as securities lending agent and a limited purpose custodian or subcustodian to receive and disburse cash balances and cash collateral, hold short-term investments, hold collateral, and perform other custodian functions. Securities on loan will be continuously secured by collateral which may consist of cash, U.S. Government securities, domestic and foreign short-term debt instruments, letters of credit, time deposits, repurchase agreements, money market mutual funds or other money market accounts, or such other collateral as permitted by the SEC. The value of the collateral must be at least 102% of the market value of the loaned securities that are denominated in U.S. dollars and 105% of the market value of the loaned securities that are not denominated in U.S. dollars. Upon receipt of cash collateral, Janus Capital currently intends to invest the cash collateral in a cash management vehicle for which Janus Capital serves as investment adviser, Janus Cash Collateral Fund LLC. Loaned securities and related collateral are marked-to-market each business day based upon the market value of the loaned securities at the close of business, employing the most recent available pricing information. Collateral levels are then adjusted based on this mark-to-market evaluation.
Real Estate Investing
To the extent that real estate-related securities may be included in a Fund’s named benchmark index, INTECH’s
84 | JUNE 30, 2014
mathematical investment process may select equity and debt securities of real estate-related companies. Such companies may include those in the real estate industry or real estate-related industries. These securities may include common stocks, preferred stocks, and other equity securities, including, but not limited to, mortgage-backed securities, real estate-backed securities, securities of REITs and similar REIT-like entities. A REIT is a trust that invests in real estate-related projects, such as properties, mortgage loans, and construction loans. REITs are generally categorized as equity, mortgage, or hybrid REITs. A REIT may be listed on an exchange or traded OTC.
Securities Lending
Under procedures adopted by the Trustees, certain Funds may seek to earn additional income by lending securities to qualified parties. Deutsche Bank AG acts as securities lending agent and a limited purpose custodian or subcustodian to receive and disburse cash balances and cash collateral, hold short-term investments, hold collateral, and perform other custodian functions. Each Fund may lend portfolio securities in an amount equal to up to 1/3 of its total assets as determined at the time of the loan origination. There is the risk of delay in recovering a loaned security or the risk of loss in collateral rights if the borrower fails financially. In addition, Janus Capital makes efforts to balance the benefits and risks from granting such loans. All loans will be continuously secured by collateral which may consist of cash, U.S. Government securities, domestic and foreign short-term debt instruments, letters of credit, time deposits, repurchase agreements, money market mutual funds or other money market accounts, or such other collateral as permitted by the SEC. If a Fund is unable to recover a security on loan, the Fund may use the collateral to purchase replacement securities in the market. There is a risk that the value of the collateral could decrease below the cost of the replacement security by the time the replacement investment is made, resulting in a loss to the Fund.
Upon receipt of cash collateral, Janus Capital may invest it in affiliated or non-affiliated cash management vehicles, whether registered or unregistered entities, as permitted by the 1940 Act and rules promulgated thereunder. Janus Capital currently intends to invest the cash collateral in a cash management vehicle for which Janus Capital serves as investment adviser, Janus Cash Collateral Fund LLC. An investment in Janus Cash Collateral Fund LLC is generally subject to the same risks that shareholders experience when investing in similarly structured vehicles, such as the potential for significant fluctuations in assets as a result of the purchase and redemption activity of the securities lending program, a decline in the value of the collateral, and possible liquidity issues. Such risks may delay the return of the cash collateral and cause a Fund to violate its agreement to return the cash collateral to a borrower in a timely manner. As adviser to the Funds and Janus Cash Collateral Fund LLC, Janus Capital has an inherent conflict of interest as a result of its fiduciary duties to both the Funds and Janus Cash Collateral Fund LLC. Additionally, Janus Capital receives an investment advisory fee of 0.05% for managing Janus Cash Collateral Fund LLC, but it may not receive a fee for managing certain other affiliated cash management vehicles in which the Funds may invest, and therefore may have an incentive to allocate preferred investment opportunities to investment vehicles for which it is receiving a fee.
The value of the collateral must be at least 102% of the market value of the loaned securities that are denominated in U.S. dollars and 105% of the market value of the loaned securities that are not denominated in U.S. dollars. Loaned securities and related collateral are marked-to-market each business day based upon the market value of the loaned securities at the close of business, employing the most recent available pricing information. Collateral levels are then adjusted based on this mark-to-market evaluation.
The cash collateral invested by Janus Capital is disclosed in the Schedule of Investments (if applicable). Income earned from the investment of the cash collateral, net of rebates paid to, or fees paid by, borrowers and less the fees paid to the lending agent are included as “Affiliated securities lending income, net” on the Statements of Operations (if applicable).
3. | Investment Advisory Agreements and Other Transactions with Affiliates |
Each Fund pays Janus Capital an investment advisory fee which is calculated daily and paid monthly. The following table reflects each Fund’s contractual investment advisory fee rate or base fee rate, as applicable (expressed as an annual rate).
Contractual | ||||||||
Investment | ||||||||
Advisory Fee/ | ||||||||
Average Daily Net | Base Fee Rate (%) | |||||||
Fund | Assets of the Fund | (annual rate) | ||||||
INTECH Global Dividend Fund | All Asset Levels | 0.55 | ||||||
INTECH International Fund | All Asset Levels | 0.55 | ||||||
INTECH U.S. Core Fund | N/A | 0.50 | ||||||
INTECH U.S. Growth Fund | All Asset Levels | 0.50 | ||||||
INTECH U.S. Value Fund | All Asset Levels | 0.50 | ||||||
For INTECH U.S. Core Fund, the investment advisory fee rate is determined by calculating a base fee and applying a performance adjustment. The base fee rate is the same
Janus Mathematical Funds | 85
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
as the contractual investment advisory fee rate shown in the table above. The performance adjustment either increases or decreases the base fee depending on how well the Fund has performed relative to its benchmark index, as shown below:
Fund | Benchmark Index | ||||
INTECH U.S. Core Fund | S&P 500® Index | ||||
The calculation of the performance adjustment applies as follows:
Investment Advisory Fee = Base Fee Rate +/- Performance Adjustment
The investment advisory fee rate paid to Janus Capital by INTECH U.S. Core Fund consists of two components: (1) a base fee calculated by applying the contractual fixed rate of the advisory fee to the Fund’s average daily net assets during the previous month (“Base Fee Rate”), plus or minus (2) a performance-fee adjustment (“Performance Adjustment”) calculated by applying a variable rate of up to 0.15% (positive or negative) to the Fund’s average daily net assets during the applicable performance measurement period. The Performance Adjustment is based on a rolling 36-month performance measurement period. Any applicable Performance Adjustment began January 2007 for the Fund.
No Performance Adjustment is applied unless the difference between the Fund’s investment performance and the cumulative investment record of the Fund’s benchmark index is 0.50% or greater (positive or negative) during the applicable performance measurement period. The Base Fee Rate is subject to an upward or downward Performance Adjustment for every full 0.50% increment by which the Fund outperforms or underperforms its benchmark index. Because the Performance Adjustment is tied to the Fund’s relative performance compared to its benchmark index (and not its absolute performance), the Performance Adjustment could increase Janus Capital’s fee even if the Fund’s Shares lose value during the performance measurement period and could decrease Janus Capital’s fee even if the Fund’s Shares increase in value during the performance measurement period. For purposes of computing the Base Fee Rate and the Performance Adjustment, net assets are averaged over different periods (average daily net assets during the previous month for the Base Fee Rate, versus average daily net assets during the performance measurement period for the Performance Adjustment). Performance of the Fund is calculated net of expenses, whereas the Fund’s benchmark index does not have any fees or expenses. Reinvestment of dividends and distributions is included in calculating both the performance of the Fund and the Fund’s benchmark index. The Base Fee Rate is calculated and accrued daily. The Performance Adjustment is calculated monthly in arrears and is accrued throughout the month. The investment fee is paid monthly in arrears. Under extreme circumstances involving underperformance by a rapidly shrinking Fund, the dollar amount of the Performance Adjustment could be more than the dollar amount of the Base Fee Rate. In such circumstances, Janus Capital would reimburse the Fund.
The application of an expense limit, if any, will have a positive effect upon the Fund’s performance and may result in an increase in the Performance Adjustment. It is possible that the cumulative dollar amount of additional compensation ultimately payable to Janus Capital may, under some circumstances, exceed the cumulative dollar amount of management fees waived by Janus Capital.
The investment performance of the Fund’s Class A Shares (waiving the upfront sales load) for the performance measurement period is used to calculate the Performance Adjustment. After Janus Capital determines whether the Fund’s performance was above or below its benchmark index by comparing the investment performance of the Fund’s load-waived Class A Shares against the cumulative investment record of the Fund’s benchmark index, Janus Capital applies the same Performance Adjustment (positive or negative) across each other class of shares of the Fund, as applicable.
It is not possible to predict the effect of the Performance Adjustment on future overall compensation to Janus Capital since it depends on the performance of INTECH U.S. Core Fund relative to the record of the Fund’s benchmark index and future changes to the size of INTECH U.S. Core Fund.
INTECH U.S. Core Fund’s prospectuses and statement of additional information contain additional information about performance-based fees. The amount shown as advisory fees on the Statements of Operations reflects the Base Fee Rate plus/minus any Performance Adjustment, if applicable.
During the year ended June 30, 2014, INTECH U.S. Core Fund recorded a Performance Adjustment as indicated in the table below:

INTECH Investment Management LLC (“INTECH”) serves as subadviser to each Fund. Janus Capital owns approximately 97% of INTECH.
Janus Capital pays INTECH a subadvisory fee rate equal to 50% of the investment advisory fee paid by the Funds to Janus Capital (calculated after any applicable
86 | JUNE 30, 2014
performance fee adjustment for INTECH U.S. Core Fund, and after any fee waivers and expense reimbursements for INTECH Global Dividend Fund, INTECH International Fund and INTECH U.S. Value Fund). The subadvisory fee paid by Janus Capital to INTECH on behalf of INTECH U.S. Core Fund adjusts up or down based on the Fund’s performance relative to its benchmark index over the performance measurement period.
Janus Services LLC (“Janus Services”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Janus Capital, is the Funds’ transfer agent. In addition, Janus Services provides or arranges for the provision of certain other administrative services including, but not limited to, recordkeeping, accounting, order processing, and other shareholder services for the Funds.
Certain, but not all, intermediaries charge administrative fees to investors in Class A Shares, Class C Shares, and Class I Shares for administrative services provided on behalf of such investors. These administrative fees are paid by the Class A Shares, Class C Shares, and Class I Shares of the Funds to Janus Services, which uses such fees to reimburse intermediaries. Consistent with the Transfer Agency Agreement between Janus Services and the Funds, Janus Services may negotiate the level, structure, and/or terms of the administrative fees with intermediaries requiring such fees on behalf of the Funds. Janus Capital and its affiliates benefit from an increase in assets that may result from such relationships.
Class D Shares pay an annual administrative services fee of 0.12% of net assets. These administrative services fees are paid by Class D Shares for shareholder services provided by Janus Services.
Janus Services receives an administrative services fee at an annual rate of up to 0.25% of the average daily net assets of Class S Shares and Class T Shares of the Funds for providing or procuring administrative services to investors in Class S Shares and Class T Shares of the Funds. Janus Services expects to use all or a significant portion of this fee to compensate retirement plan service providers, broker-dealers, bank trust departments, financial advisors, and other financial intermediaries for providing these services. Janus Services or its affiliates may also pay fees for services provided by intermediaries to the extent the fees charged by intermediaries exceed the 0.25% of net assets charged to Class S Shares and Class T Shares of each Fund. Janus Services may keep certain amounts retained for reimbursement of out-of-pocket costs incurred for servicing clients of Class S Shares and Class T Shares.
Services provided by these financial intermediaries may include, but are not limited to, recordkeeping, subaccounting, order processing, providing order confirmations, periodic statements, forwarding prospectuses, shareholder reports, and other materials to existing customers, answering inquiries regarding accounts, and other administrative services. Order processing includes the submission of transactions through the National Securities Clearing Corporation (“NSCC”) or similar systems, or those processed on a manual basis with Janus Capital.
Janus Services is compensated for its services related to Class D Shares, and receives reimbursement for its out-of-pocket costs on all other share classes. Included in out-of-pocket expenses are the expenses Janus Services incurs for serving as transfer agent and providing servicing to shareholders.
Under separate distribution and shareholder servicing plans (each, a “Plan”) adopted in accordance with Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act, the Funds may pay the Trust’s distributor, Janus Distributors LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Janus Capital, a fee at an annual rate of up to 0.25% of the Class A Shares average daily net assets, of up to 1.00% of the Class C Shares average daily net assets, and of up to 0.25% of the Class S Shares average daily net assets. Under the terms of each Plan, the Trust is authorized to make payments to Janus Distributors for remittance to retirement plan service providers, broker-dealers, bank trust departments, financial advisors, and other financial intermediaries, as compensation for distribution and/or shareholder services performed by such entities for their customers who are investors in the Funds. Payments under each Plan are not tied exclusively to actual distribution and shareholder service expenses, and the payments may exceed distribution and shareholder service expenses actually incurred by the Funds. If any of the Fund’s actual distribution and shareholder service expenses incurred during a calendar year are less than the payments made during a calendar year, the Fund will be refunded the difference. Refunds, if any, are included in “Distribution fees and shareholder servicing fees” in the Statements of Operations.
Janus Capital has contractually agreed to waive the advisory fee payable by each Fund listed below or reimburse expenses in an amount equal to the amount, if any, that the Fund’s normal operating expenses in any fiscal year, including the investment advisory fee, but excluding any performance adjustments to management fees, the distribution and shareholder servicing fees (applicable to Class A Shares, Class C Shares, and Class S Shares), administrative services fees payable pursuant to the Transfer Agency Agreement, brokerage commissions, interest, dividends, taxes, acquired fund fees and expenses, and extraordinary expenses, exceed the annual rate shown below. Janus Capital has agreed to continue each waiver until at least November 1, 2014. If applicable, amounts reimbursed to the Funds by Janus

For a period of three years subsequent to INTECH Global Dividend Fund’s commencement of operations, Janus Capital may recover from the Fund fees and expenses previously waived or reimbursed, which could then be considered a deferral, if the Fund’s expense ratio, including recovered expenses, falls below the expense limit. For the year ended June 30, 2014, total reimbursement by Janus Capital was $166,166 for the Fund. As of June 30, 2014, the aggregate amount of recoupment that may potentially be made to Janus Capital is $508,998. The recoupment of such reimbursements expires December 15, 2014.
The Board of Trustees has adopted a deferred compensation plan (the “Deferred Plan”) for independent Trustees to elect to defer receipt of all or a portion of the annual compensation they are entitled to receive from the Funds. All deferred fees are credited to an account established in the name of the Trustees. The amounts credited to the account then increase or decrease, as the case may be, in accordance with the performance of one or more of the Janus funds that are selected by the Trustees. The account balance continues to fluctuate in accordance with the performance of the selected fund or funds until final payment of all amounts are credited to the account. The fluctuation of the account balance is recorded by the Funds as unrealized appreciation/(depreciation) and is shown as of June 30, 2014 on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as an asset, “Non-interested Trustees’ deferred compensation,” and a liability, “Non-interested Trustees’ deferred compensation fees.” Additionally, the recorded unrealized appreciation/(depreciation) is included in “Unrealized net appreciation/(depreciation) of investments, foreign currency translations and non-interested Trustees’ deferred compensation” on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Deferred compensation expenses for the year ended June 30, 2014 are included in “Non-interested Trustees’ fees and expenses” on the Statements of Operations. Trustees are allowed to change their designation of mutual funds from time to time. Amounts will be deferred until distributed in accordance with the Deferred Plan. Deferred fees of $285,500 were paid by the Trust to a Trustee under the Deferred Plan during the year ended June 30, 2014.
Certain officers of the Funds may also be officers and/or directors of Janus Capital. Each Fund indirectly pays for the salaries, fees, and expenses of certain Janus Capital employees and Fund officers, with respect to certain specified administration functions they perform on behalf of the Funds. Administration costs are separate and apart from advisory fees and other expenses paid in connection with the investment advisory services Janus Capital (or the subadviser) provides to each Fund. Some expenses related to compensation payable to the Funds’ Chief Compliance Officer and compliance staff are shared with the Funds. Total compensation of $518,025 was paid to the Chief Compliance Officer and certain compliance staff by the Trust during the year ended June 30, 2014. Each Fund’s portion is reported as part of “Other expenses” on the Statements of Operations.
Class A Shares include a 5.75% upfront sales charge of the offering price of the Funds. The sales charge is allocated between Janus Distributors and financial intermediaries. During the year ended June 30, 2014, Janus Distributors retained the following upfront sales charges:
Upfront | |||||
Fund (Class A Shares) | Sales Charge | ||||
INTECH Global Dividend Fund | $6,951 | ||||
INTECH International Fund | 329 | ||||
INTECH U.S. Core Fund | 5,482 | ||||
INTECH U.S. Growth Fund | 1,045 | ||||
INTECH U.S. Value Fund | 647 | ||||
A contingent deferred sales charge (“CDSC”) of 1.00% will be deducted with respect to Class A Shares purchased without a sales load and redeemed within 12 months of purchase, unless waived, as discussed in the Prospectus. Any applicable CDSC will be 1.00% of the lesser of the original purchase price or the value of the redemption of the Class A Shares redeemed. There were no CDSCs paid by redeeming shareholders of Class A Shares to Janus Distributors during the year ended June 30, 2014.
Class C Shares include a 1.00% CDSC paid by redeeming shareholders to Janus Distributors. The CDSC applies to shares redeemed within 12 months of purchase. The redemption price may differ from the NAV per share. During the year ended June 30, 2014, redeeming shareholders of Class C Shares paid the following CDSCs:
Fund (Class C Shares) | CDSC | ||||
INTECH U.S. Core Fund | $910 | ||||
INTECH U.S. Growth Fund | 79 | ||||

The Funds’ expenses may be reduced by expense offsets from an unaffiliated custodian and/or transfer agent. Such credits or offsets are included in “Expense and Fee
88 | JUNE 30, 2014
Offset” on the Statements of Operations (if applicable). The Funds could have employed the assets used by the custodian and/or transfer agent to produce income if they had not entered into an expense offset arrangement.
Pursuant to the provisions of the 1940 Act and rules promulgated thereunder, the Funds may participate in an affiliated or nonaffiliated cash sweep program. In the cash sweep program, uninvested cash balances of the Funds may be used to purchase shares of affiliated or nonaffiliated money market funds or cash management pooled investment vehicles. The Funds are eligible to participate in the cash sweep program (the “Investing Funds”). Janus Cash Liquidity Fund LLC is an affiliated unregistered cash management pooled investment vehicle that invests primarily in highly-rated short-term fixed-income securities. Janus Cash Liquidity Fund LLC currently maintains a NAV of $1.00 per share and distributes income daily in a manner consistent with a registered 2a-7 product. There are no restrictions on the Funds’ ability to withdraw investments from Janus Cash Liquidity Fund LLC at will, and there are no unfunded capital commitments due from the Funds to Janus Cash Liquidity Fund LLC. As adviser, Janus Capital has an inherent conflict of interest because of its fiduciary duties to the affiliated cash management pooled investment vehicles and the Investing Funds.
During the year ended June 30, 2014, any recorded distributions from affiliated investments as affiliated dividend income, and affiliated purchases and sales can be found in the Notes to Schedules of Investments and Other Information.
As of June 30, 2014, shares of the Funds were owned by Janus Capital and/or other funds advised by Janus Capital, as indicated in the table below:

The tax components of capital shown in the table below represent: (1) distribution requirements the Funds must satisfy under the income tax regulations; (2) losses or deductions the Funds may be able to offset against income and gains realized in future years; and (3) unrealized appreciation or depreciation of investments for federal income tax purposes.
Other book to tax differences primarily consist of deferred compensation, derivatives and foreign currency contract adjustments. The Funds have elected to treat gains and losses on forward foreign currency contracts as capital gains and losses, if applicable. Other foreign currency gains and losses on debt instruments are treated as ordinary income for federal income tax purposes pursuant to Section 988 of the Internal Revenue Code.

Accumulated capital losses noted below represent net capital loss carryovers, as of June 30, 2014, that may be available to offset future realized capital gains and thereby reduce future taxable gains distributions. Under the Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010, the Funds are permitted to carry forward capital losses incurred in taxable years beginning after December 22, 2010 for an unlimited period. Losses incurred during those years will be required to be utilized prior to the losses incurred in pre-enactment taxable years. As a result of this ordering rule, pre-enactment capital loss carryforwards may more likely expire unused. Also, post-enactment capital losses that are carried forward will retain their character as either short-term or long-term capital losses rather than being considered all short-term as under previous law. The following table shows these capital loss carryovers.

Income and capital gains distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations that may differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These differences are due to differing treatments for items such as net short-term gains, deferral of wash sale losses, foreign currency transactions, passive foreign investment companies, net investment losses and capital loss carryovers.

7. | New Accounting Pronouncements |
In June 2013, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2013-08, Financial Services – Investment Companies (Topic 946): Amendments to the Scope, Measurement and Disclosure Requirements (“ASU 2013-08”). This update sets forth a new approach for determining whether a public or private company is an investment company and sets certain measurement and disclosure requirements for an investment company. FASB has determined that a fund registered under the 1940 Act automatically meets ASU 2013-08’s criteria for an investment company. ASU 2013-08 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods in fiscal years that begin after December 15, 2013. Management does not expect this guidance to have an impact on the Funds’ financial statements.
8. | Subsequent Event |
Management has evaluated whether any other events or transactions occurred subsequent to June 30, 2014 and through the date of issuance of the Funds’ financial statements and determined that there were no material events or transactions that would require recognition or disclosure in the Funds’ financial statements.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Trustees and Shareholders
of Janus Investment Fund:
In our opinion, the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the schedules of investments, and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of INTECH Global Dividend Fund, INTECH International Fund, INTECH U.S. Core Fund, INTECH U.S. Growth Fund, and INTECH U.S. Value Fund (five of the funds constituting Janus Investment Fund, hereafter referred to as the “Funds”) at June 30, 2014 and the results of each of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in each of their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the periods presented, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as “financial statements”) are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at June 30, 2014 by correspondence with the custodian, transfer agent and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

APPROVAL OF ADVISORY AGREEMENTS DURING THE PERIOD
The Trustees of Janus Investment Fund and Janus Aspen Series, each of whom serves as an “independent” Trustee (the “Trustees”), oversee the management of each Fund of Janus Investment Fund and each Portfolio of Janus Aspen Series (each, a “Fund” and collectively, the “Funds”), and as required by law, determine annually whether to continue the investment advisory agreement for each Fund and the subadvisory agreements for the 16 Funds that utilize subadvisers.
In connection with their most recent consideration of those agreements for each Fund, the Trustees received and reviewed information provided by Janus Capital and the respective subadvisers in response to requests of the Trustees and their independent legal counsel. They also received and reviewed information and analysis provided by, and in response to requests of, their independent fee consultant. Throughout their consideration of the agreements, the Trustees were advised by their independent legal counsel. The Trustees met with management to consider the agreements, and also met separately in executive session with their independent legal counsel and their independent fee consultant.
At a meeting held on December 17, 2013, based on the Trustees’ evaluation of the information provided by Janus Capital, the subadvisers, and the independent fee consultant, as well as other information, the Trustees determined that the overall arrangements between each Fund and Janus Capital and each subadviser, as applicable, were fair and reasonable in light of the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by Janus Capital, its affiliates and the subadvisers, the fees charged for those services, and other matters that the Trustees considered relevant in the exercise of their business judgment. At that meeting, the Trustees unanimously approved the continuation of the investment advisory agreement for each Fund, and the subadvisory agreement for each subadvised Fund, for the period from either January 1 or February 1, 2014 through January 1 or February 1, 2015, respectively, subject to earlier termination as provided for in each agreement.
In considering the continuation of those agreements, the Trustees reviewed and analyzed various factors that they determined were relevant, including the factors described below, none of which by itself was considered dispositive. However, the material factors and conclusions that formed the basis for the Trustees’ determination to approve the continuation of the agreements are discussed separately below. Also included is a summary of the independent fee consultant’s conclusions and opinions that arose during, and were included as part of, the Trustees’ consideration of the agreements. “Management fees,” as used herein, reflect actual annual advisory fees and any administration fees, net of any waivers.
Nature, Extent and Quality of Services
The Trustees reviewed the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by Janus Capital and the subadvisers to the Funds, taking into account the investment objective, strategies and policies of each Fund, and the knowledge the Trustees gained from their regular meetings with management on at least a quarterly basis and their ongoing review of information related to the Funds. In addition, the Trustees reviewed the resources and key personnel of Janus Capital and each subadviser, particularly noting those employees who provide investment and risk management services to the Funds. The Trustees also considered other services provided to the Funds by Janus Capital or the subadvisers, such as managing the execution of portfolio transactions and the selection of broker-dealers for those transactions. The Trustees considered Janus Capital’s role as administrator to the Funds, noting that Janus Capital does not receive a fee for its services but is reimbursed for its out-of-pocket costs. The Trustees considered the role of Janus Capital in monitoring adherence to the Funds’ investment restrictions, providing support services for the Trustees and Trustee committees, communicating with shareholders and overseeing the activities of other service providers,
96 | JUNE 30, 2014
including monitoring compliance with various policies and procedures of the Funds and with applicable securities laws and regulations.
In this regard, the independent fee consultant noted that Janus Capital provides a number of different services for the Funds and Fund shareholders, ranging from investment management services to various other servicing functions, and that, in its opinion, Janus Capital is a capable provider of those services. The independent fee consultant also provided its belief that Janus Capital has developed institutional competitive advantages that should be able to provide superior investment management returns over the long term.
The Trustees concluded that the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by Janus Capital or the subadviser to each Fund were appropriate and consistent with the terms of the respective advisory and subadvisory agreements, and that, taking into account steps taken to address those Funds whose performance lagged that of their peers for certain periods, the Funds were likely to benefit from the continued provision of those services. They also concluded that Janus Capital and each subadviser had sufficient personnel, with the appropriate education and experience, to serve the Funds effectively and had demonstrated its ability to attract well-qualified personnel.
Performance of the Funds
The Trustees considered the performance results of each Fund over various time periods. They noted that they considered Fund performance data throughout the year, including periodic meetings with each Fund’s portfolio manager(s), and also reviewed information comparing each Fund’s performance with the performance of comparable funds and peer groups identified by independent data providers, and with the Fund’s benchmark index. In this regard, the independent fee consultant found that the overall Funds’ performance has improved modestly: for the 36 months ended September 30, 2013, approximately 51% of the Funds were in the top two Lipper quartiles of performance, and for the 12 months ended September 30, 2013, approximately 52% of the Funds were in the top two Lipper quartiles of performance.
The Trustees considered the performance of each Fund, noting that performance may vary by share class, and noted the following:

In consideration of each Fund’s performance, the Trustees concluded that, taking into account the factors relevant to performance, as well as other considerations, the Fund’s performance warranted continuation of the Fund’s investment advisory agreement(s).
Costs of Services Provided
The Trustees examined information regarding the fees and expenses of each Fund in comparison to similar information for other comparable funds as provided by independent data providers. They also reviewed an analysis of that information provided by their independent fee consultant and noted that the rate of management (investment advisory and any administration) fees for many of the Funds, after applicable contractual expense limitations, was below the mean management fee rate of the respective peer group of funds selected by independent data providers. The Trustees also examined information regarding the subadvisory fees charged for subadvisory services, as applicable, noting that all such fees were paid by Janus Capital out of its management fees collected from such Fund.
In this regard, the independent fee consultant provided its belief that the management fees charged by Janus Capital to each of the Funds under the current investment advisory and administration agreements are reasonable in relation to the services provided by Janus Capital. The independent fee consultant found: (1) the total expenses and management fees of the Funds to be reasonable relative to other mutual funds; (2) total expenses, on average, were 17% below the mean total expenses of their respective Lipper Expense Group peers and 29% below the mean total expenses for their Lipper Expense Universes; (3) management fees for the Funds, on average, were 14% below the mean management fees for their Expense Groups and 16% below the mean for their Expense Universes; and (4) Janus fund expenses at the functional level for each asset and share class category were reasonable. The Trustees also considered how the total expenses for each share class of each Fund compared to the mean total expenses for its Lipper Expense Group peers and to mean total expenses for its Lipper Expense Universe.
The independent fee consultant concluded that, based on its strategic review of expenses at the complex, category and individual fund level, Fund expenses were found to be reasonable relative to both Expense Group and Expense Universe benchmarks. Further, for certain Funds, the independent fee consultant also performed a systematic “focus list” analysis of expenses in the context of the performance or service delivered to each set of investors in each share class in each selected Fund. Based on this analysis, the independent fee consultant found that the combination of service quality/performance and expenses on these individual Funds and share classes were reasonable in light of performance trends, performance histories, and existence of performance fees on such Funds.
The Trustees considered the methodology used by Janus Capital and each subadviser in determining compensation payable to portfolio managers, the competitive environment for investment management talent, and the competitive market for mutual funds in different distribution channels.
The Trustees also reviewed management fees charged by Janus Capital and each subadviser to comparable separate account clients and to comparable non-affiliated funds subadvised by Janus Capital or by a subadviser (for which Janus Capital or the subadviser provides only portfolio management services). Although in most instances subadvisory and separate account fee rates for various investment strategies were lower than management fee rates for Funds having a similar strategy, the Trustees noted that, under the terms of the management agreements with the Funds, Janus Capital performs significant additional services for the Funds that it does not provide to those other clients, including administration services, oversight of the Funds’ other service providers, trustee support, regulatory compliance and numerous other services, and that, in serving the Funds, Janus Capital assumes many legal risks that it does not assume in servicing its other clients. Moreover, they noted that the independent fee consultant found that: (1) the management fees Janus Capital charges to the Funds are reasonable in relation to the management fees Janus Capital charges to its institutional and subadvised accounts; (2) these institutional and subadvised accounts have different service and infrastructure needs; and (3) the average spread between management fees

charged to the Funds and those charged to Janus Capital’s institutional and subadvised accounts is reasonable relative to the average spreads seen in the industry.
The Trustees considered the fees for each Fund for its fiscal year ended in 2012, and noted the following with regard to each Fund’s total expenses, net of applicable fee waivers:
Fixed-Income Funds and Money Market Funds
• | For Janus Flexible Bond Fund, the Trustees noted that, although the Fund’s total expenses exceeded the peer group mean for certain share classes, overall the Fund’s total expenses were reasonable.

• | For Janus Government Money Market Fund, the Trustees noted that the Fund’s total expenses exceeded the peer group mean for both share classes.

In addition, the Trustees considered that Janus Capital voluntarily waives one-half of its advisory fee. |

The Trustees reviewed information on the profitability to Janus Capital and its affiliates of their relationships with each Fund, as well as an explanation of the methodology utilized in allocating various expenses of Janus Capital and its affiliates among the Funds and other clients. The Trustees also reviewed the financial statements and corporate structure of Janus Capital’s parent company. In their review, the Trustees considered whether Janus Capital and each subadviser receive adequate incentives to manage the Funds effectively. The Trustees recognized that profitability comparisons among fund managers are difficult because very little comparative information is publicly available, and the profitability of any fund manager is affected by numerous factors, including the organizational structure of the particular fund manager, the types of funds and other accounts it manages, possible other lines of business, the methodology for allocating expenses, and the fund manager’s capital structure and cost of capital. However, taking into account those factors and the analysis provided by the Trustees’ independent fee consultant, and based on the information available, the Trustees concluded that Janus Capital’s profitability with respect to each Fund in relation to the services rendered was not unreasonable.
In this regard, the independent fee consultant found that, while assessing the reasonableness of expenses in light of Janus Capital’s profits is dependent on comparisons with other publicly-traded mutual fund advisers, and that these comparisons are limited in accuracy by differences in complex size, business mix, institutional account orientation, and other factors, after accepting these limitations, the level of profit earned by Janus Capital from managing the Funds is reasonable.
The Trustees concluded that the management fees and other compensation payable by each Fund to Janus Capital and its affiliates, as well as the fees paid by Janus Capital to the subadvisers of subadvised Funds, were reasonable in relation to the nature, extent, and quality of the services provided, taking into account the fees charged by other advisers for managing comparable mutual funds with similar strategies, the fees Janus Capital and the subadvisers charge to other clients, and, as applicable, the impact of fund performance on management fees payable by the Funds. The Trustees also concluded that the overall expense ratio of each Fund was reasonable, taking into account the size of the Fund, the quality of services provided by Janus Capital and any subadviser, the investment performance of the Fund, and any expense limitations agreed to or provided by Janus Capital.
Economies of Scale
The Trustees considered information about the potential for Janus Capital to realize economies of scale as the assets of the Funds increase. They noted that, although many Funds pay advisory fees at a base fixed rate as a percentage of net assets, without any breakpoints, the base management fee rate paid by most of the Funds, before any adjustment for performance and after any contractual expense limitations, was below the mean management fee rate of the Fund’s peer group identified by independent data providers; and, for those Funds whose expenses are being reduced by the contractual expense limitations of Janus Capital, Janus Capital is subsidizing the Funds because they have not reached adequate scale. Moreover, as the assets of many of the Funds have declined in the past few years, certain Funds have benefited from having advisory fee rates that have remained constant rather than increasing as assets declined. In addition, performance fee structures have been implemented for various Funds that have caused the effective rate of advisory fees payable by such a Fund to vary depending on the investment performance of the Fund relative to its benchmark index over the measurement period; and a few Funds have fee schedules with breakpoints and reduced fee rates above certain asset levels. The Trustees also noted that the Funds share directly in economies of scale through the lower charges of third-party service providers that are based in part on the combined scale of all of the Funds. Based on all of the information they reviewed, including research and analysis conducted by the Trustees’ independent fee consultant, the Trustees concluded that the current fee structure of each Fund was reasonable and that the current rates of fees do reflect a sharing between Janus Capital and the Fund of any economies of scale that may be present at the current asset level of the Fund.
In this regard, the independent fee consultant concluded that, based on analysis it completed, and given the limitations in these analytical approaches and their
Janus Mathematical Funds | 105
Additional Information (unaudited) (continued)
conflicting results, it could not confirm or deny the existence of economies of scale in the Janus complex. Further, the independent fee consultant provided its belief that Fund investors are well-served by the fee levels and performance fee structures in place on the Funds in light of any economies of scale that may be present at Janus Capital.
Other Benefits to Janus Capital
The Trustees also considered benefits that accrue to Janus Capital and its affiliates from their relationships with the Funds. They recognized that two affiliates of Janus Capital separately serve the Funds as transfer agent and distributor, respectively, and the transfer agent receives compensation directly from the non-money market funds for services provided. The Trustees also considered Janus Capital’s past and proposed use of commissions paid by the Funds on their portfolio brokerage transactions to obtain proprietary and third-party research products and services benefiting the Fund and/or other clients of Janus Capital. The Trustees concluded that Janus Capital’s use of these types of client commission arrangements to obtain proprietary and third-party research products and services was consistent with regulatory requirements and guidelines and was likely to benefit each Fund. The Trustees also concluded that, other than the services provided by Janus Capital and its affiliates pursuant to the agreements and the fees to be paid by each Fund therefor, the Funds and Janus Capital may potentially benefit from their relationship with each other in other ways. They concluded that Janus Capital benefits from the receipt of research products and services acquired through commissions paid on portfolio transactions of the Funds and that the Funds benefit from Janus Capital’s receipt of those products and services as well as research products and services acquired through commissions paid by other clients of Janus Capital. They further concluded that the success of any Fund could attract other business to Janus Capital or other Janus funds, and that the success of Janus Capital could enhance Janus Capital’s ability to serve the Funds.

Useful Information About Your Fund Report (unaudited)
1. | Management Commentary |
The Management Commentary in this report includes valuable insight from each of the Fund’s investment personnel as well as statistical information to help you understand how your Fund’s performance and characteristics stack up against those of comparable indices.
If the Fund invests in foreign securities, this report may include information about country exposure. Country exposure is based primarily on the country of risk. The Fund’s investment personnel may allocate a company to a country based on other factors such as location of the company’s principal office, the location of the principal trading market for the company’s securities, or the country where a majority of the company’s revenues are derived.
Please keep in mind that the opinions expressed in the Management Commentary are just that: opinions. They are a reflection based on best judgment at the time this report was compiled, which was June 30, 2014. As the investing environment changes, so could opinions. These views are unique and aren’t necessarily shared by fellow employees or by Janus in general.
2. | Performance Overviews |
Performance overview graphs compare the performance of a hypothetical $10,000 investment in the Fund with one or more widely used market indices.
When comparing the performance of the Fund with an index, keep in mind that market indices do not include brokerage commissions that would be incurred if you purchased the individual securities in the index. They also do not include taxes payable on dividends and interest or operating expenses incurred if you maintained the Fund invested in the index.
Average annual total returns are quoted for a Fund with more than one year of performance history. Average annual total return is calculated by taking the growth or decline in value of an investment over a period of time, including reinvestment of dividends and distributions, then calculating the annual compounded percentage rate that would have produced the same result had the rate of growth been constant throughout the period. Average annual total return does not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or redemptions of Fund shares.
Cumulative total returns are quoted for a Fund with less than one year of performance history. Cumulative total return is the growth or decline in value of an investment over time, independent of the period of time involved. Cumulative total return does not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or redemptions of Fund shares.
Pursuant to federal securities rules, expense ratios shown in the performance chart reflect subsidized (if applicable) and unsubsidized ratios. The total annual fund operating expenses ratio is gross of any fee waivers, reflecting the Fund’s unsubsidized expense ratio. The net annual fund operating expenses ratio (if applicable) includes contractual waivers of Janus Capital and reflects the Fund’s subsidized expense ratio. Ratios may be higher or lower than those shown in the “Financial Highlights” in this report.
3. | Schedule of Investments |
Following the performance overview section is the Fund’s Schedule of Investments. This schedule reports the types of securities held in the Fund on the last day of the reporting period. Securities are usually listed by type (common stock, corporate bonds, U.S. Government obligations, etc.) and by industry classification (banking, communications, insurance, etc.). Holdings are subject to change without notice.
The value of each security is quoted as of the last day of the reporting period. The value of securities denominated in foreign currencies is converted into U.S. dollars.
If the Fund invests in foreign securities, it will also provide a summary of investments by country. This summary reports the Fund’s exposure to different countries by providing the percentage of securities invested in each country. The country of each security represents the country of risk. The Fund’s Schedule of Investments relies upon the industry group and country classifications published by Barclays and/or MSCI Inc.
Tables listing details of individual forward currency contracts, futures, written options and swaps follow the Fund’s Schedule of Investments (if applicable).
4. | Statement of Assets and Liabilities |
This statement is often referred to as the “balance sheet.” It lists the assets and liabilities of the Fund on the last day of the reporting period.
The Fund’s assets are calculated by adding the value of the securities owned, the receivable for securities sold but not yet settled, the receivable for dividends declared but not yet received on securities owned and the receivable for Fund shares sold to investors but not yet settled. The Fund’s liabilities include payables for securities purchased but not yet settled, Fund shares redeemed but not yet paid and expenses owed but not yet paid. Additionally, there may be other assets and liabilities such as unrealized gain or loss on forward currency contracts.
Janus Mathematical Funds | 107
Useful Information About Your Fund Report (unaudited) (continued)
The section entitled “Net Assets Consist of” breaks down the components of the Fund’s net assets. Because the Fund must distribute substantially all earnings, you will notice that a significant portion of net assets is shareholder capital.
The last section of this statement reports the net asset value (“NAV”) per share on the last day of the reporting period. The NAV is calculated by dividing the Fund’s net assets for each share class (assets minus liabilities) by the number of shares outstanding.
5. | Statement of Operations |
This statement details the Fund’s income, expenses, realized gains and losses on securities and currency transactions, and changes in unrealized appreciation or depreciation of Fund holdings.
The first section in this statement, entitled “Investment Income,” reports the dividends earned from securities and interest earned from interest-bearing securities in the Fund.
The next section reports the expenses incurred by the Fund, including the advisory fee paid to the investment adviser, transfer agent fees and expenses, and printing and postage for mailing statements, financial reports and prospectuses. Expense offsets and expense reimbursements, if any, are also shown.
The last section lists the amounts of realized gains or losses from investment and foreign currency transactions, and changes in unrealized appreciation or depreciation of investments and foreign currency-denominated assets and liabilities. The Fund will realize a gain (or loss) when it sells its position in a particular security. A change in unrealized gain (or loss) refers to the change in net appreciation or depreciation of the Fund during the reporting period. “Net Realized and Unrealized Gain/(Loss) on Investments” is affected both by changes in the market value of Fund holdings and by gains (or losses) realized during the reporting period.
6. | Statements of Changes in Net Assets |
These statements report the increase or decrease in the Fund’s net assets during the reporting period. Changes in the Fund’s net assets are attributable to investment operations, dividends and distributions to investors and capital share transactions. This is important to investors because it shows exactly what caused the Fund’s net asset size to change during the period.
The first section summarizes the information from the Statement of Operations regarding changes in net assets due to the Fund’s investment operations. The Fund’s net assets may also change as a result of dividend and capital gains distributions to investors. If investors receive their dividends and/or distributions in cash, money is taken out of the Fund to pay the dividend and/or distribution. If investors reinvest their dividends and/or distributions, the Fund’s net assets will not be affected. If you compare the Fund’s “Net Decrease from Dividends and Distributions” to “Reinvested Dividends and Distributions,” you will notice that dividends and distributions have little effect on the Fund’s net assets. This is because the majority of the Fund’s investors reinvest their dividends and/or distributions.
The reinvestment of dividends and distributions is included under “Capital Share Transactions.” “Capital Shares” refers to the money investors contribute to the Fund through purchases or withdrawals via redemptions. The Fund’s net assets will increase and decrease in value as investors purchase and redeem shares from the Fund.
7. | Financial Highlights |
This schedule provides a per-share breakdown of the components that affect the Fund’s NAV for current and past reporting periods as well as total return, asset size, ratios and portfolio turnover rate.
The first line in the table reflects the NAV per share at the beginning of the reporting period. The next line reports the net investment income/(loss) per share. Following is the per share total of net gains/(losses), realized and unrealized. Per share dividends and distributions to investors are then subtracted to arrive at the NAV per share at the end of the period. The next line reflects the total return for the period. The total return may include adjustments in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles required at the period end for financial reporting purposes. As a result, the total return may differ from the total return reflected for individual shareholder transactions. Also included are ratios of expenses and net investment income to average net assets.
The Fund’s expenses may be reduced through expense offsets and expense reimbursements. The ratios shown reflect expenses before and after any such offsets and reimbursements.
The ratio of net investment income/(loss) summarizes the income earned less expenses, divided by the average net assets of the Fund during the reporting period. Don’t confuse this ratio with the Fund’s yield. The net investment income ratio is not a true measure of the Fund’s yield because it doesn’t take into account the dividends distributed to the Fund’s investors.
The next figure is the portfolio turnover rate, which measures the buying and selling activity in the Fund.
108 | JUNE 30, 2014
Portfolio turnover is affected by market conditions, changes in the asset size of the Fund, fluctuating volume of shareholder purchase and redemption orders, the nature of the Fund’s investments, and the investment style and/or outlook of the investment personnel. A 100% rate implies that an amount equal to the value of the entire portfolio was replaced once during the fiscal year; a 50% rate means that an amount equal to the value of half the portfolio is traded in a year; and a 200% rate means that an amount equal to the value of the entire portfolio is traded every six months.

Notes
Janus Mathematical Funds | 117
Janus provides access to a wide range of investment disciplines.
Alternative
Janus alternative funds seek to deliver strong risk-adjusted returns over a full market cycle with lower correlation to equity markets than traditional investments.
Asset Allocation
Janus’ asset allocation funds utilize our fundamental, bottom-up research to balance risk over the long term. From fund options that meet investors’ risk tolerance and objectives to a method that incorporates non-traditional investment choices to seek non-correlated sources of risk and return, Janus’ asset allocation funds aim to allocate risk more effectively.
Fixed Income
Janus fixed income funds attempt to provide less risk relative to equities while seeking to deliver a competitive total return through high current income and appreciation. Janus money market funds seek capital preservation and liquidity with current income as a secondary objective.
Global & International
Janus global and international funds seek to leverage Janus’ research capabilities by taking advantage of inefficiencies in foreign markets, where accurate information and analytical insight are often at a premium.
Growth & Core
Janus growth funds focus on companies believed to be the leaders in their respective industries, with solid management teams, expanding market share, margins and efficiencies. Janus core funds seek investments in more stable and predictable companies. Our core funds look for a strategic combination of steady growth and, for certain funds, some degree of income.
Mathematical
Our mathematical funds seek to outperform their respective indices while maintaining a risk profile equal to or lower than the index itself. Managed by INTECH (a Janus subsidiary), these funds use a mathematical process in an attempt to build a more “efficient” portfolio than the index.
Value
Our value funds, managed by Perkins (a Janus subsidiary), seek to identify companies with favorable reward to risk characteristics by conducting rigorous downside analysis before determining upside potential.

PART C - OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 15. | Indemnification |
Article VI of Janus Investment Fund’s (the “Trust”) Amended and Restated Agreement and Declaration of Trust provides for indemnification of certain persons acting on behalf of the Funds. In general, Trustees, officers and Advisory Board members will be indemnified against liability and against all expenses of litigation incurred by them in connection with any action, suit or proceeding (or settlement of the same) in which they become involved by virtue of their connection with the Funds, unless their conduct is determined to constitute willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of their duties. A determination that a person covered by the indemnification provisions is entitled to indemnification may be made by the court or other body before which the proceeding is brought, or by either a vote of a majority of a quorum of Trustees who are neither “interested persons” (as defined under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, i.e., “Non-interested Trustees”) of the Trust nor parties to the proceeding or by an independent legal counsel in a written opinion. The Funds also may advance money for these expenses, provided that the Trustee or officer undertakes to repay the Funds if his or her conduct is later determined to preclude indemnification, and that either he or she provide security for the undertaking, the Trust be insured against losses resulting from lawful advances or a majority of a quorum of Non-interested Trustees, or independent legal counsel in a written opinion, determines that he or she ultimately will be found to be entitled to indemnification. The Trust also maintains a liability insurance policy covering its Trustees, officers and any Advisory Board members.
Additionally, each Non-interested Trustee has entered into an Indemnification Agreement with the Trust, which agreement provides that the Trust shall indemnify the Non-interested Trustee against certain liabilities which such Trustee may incur while acting in the capacity as a trustee, officer, employee or authorized agent of the Trust to the fullest extent permitted by law, now or in the future, and requires indemnification and advancement of expenses unless prohibited by law. The Indemnification Agreement cannot be altered without the consent of the Non-interested Trustee and the Trust. In addition, the Indemnification Agreement adopts certain presumptions and procedures which may make the process of indemnification and advancement of expenses more timely, efficient, and certain. In accordance with Section 17(h) of the 1940 Act, the Indemnification Agreement does not protect a Non-interested Trustee against any liability to the Trust or its shareholders to which such Trustee would otherwise be subject by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence, or reckless disregard of the duties involved in the conduct of his or her office.
