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:

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES

The Fund pursues its investment objective by normally investing 35-65% of its assets in equity securities and the remaining assets in fixed-income securities and cash equivalents. The Fund normally invests at least 25% of its assets in fixed-income senior securities. The Fund’s fixed-income investments may reflect a broad range of credit qualities and may include corporate debt securities, U.S. Government obligations, mortgage-backed securities and other mortgage-related products, and short-term securities. In addition, the Fund may invest up to 35% of its net assets in high-yield/high-risk bonds, also known as “junk” bonds. The Fund may also invest in foreign securities, which may include investments in emerging markets. As of September 30, 2017, approximately 65% of the Fund’s assets were held in equity securities, including common stocks and preferred stocks and 34% of the Fund’s assets were held in fixed-income securities and cash equivalents. The Fund may enter into “to be announced” or “TBA” commitments when purchasing mortgage-backed securities or other securities.

In choosing investments for the Fund, the portfolio managers apply a “bottom up” approach with two portfolio managers focusing on the equity portion of the Fund and the other portfolio managers focusing on the fixed-income portion of the Fund. With respect to corporate issuers, the portfolio managers look at companies one at a time to determine if a company is an attractive investment opportunity and if it is consistent with the Fund’s investment policies. The portfolio managers may also consider economic factors, such as the effect of interest rates on certain of the Fund’s fixed-income investments. The portfolio managers share day-to-day responsibility for the Fund’s investments.

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 a balanced portfolio, including common stocks and bonds. Common stocks tend to be more volatile than many other investment choices.

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 or if the portfolio managers’ belief about a company’s intrinsic worth is incorrect. 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. Market risk may affect a single issuer, industry, economic sector, or the market as a whole.

Growth Securities Risk. The Fund invests in companies that the portfolio managers believe have growth potential. Securities of companies perceived to be “growth” companies may be more volatile than other stocks and may involve special risks. If the portfolio managers’ perception of 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

3	Janus Henderson Balanced Fund

depending on market and economic conditions, “growth” stocks may perform differently from the market as a whole and other types of securities.

Fixed-Income Securities Risk. The Fund holds debt and other fixed-income securities to generate income. Typically, the values of fixed-income securities change inversely with prevailing interest rates. Therefore, a fundamental risk of fixed-income securities is interest rate risk, which is the risk that the value of such securities will generally decline as prevailing interest rates rise, which may cause the Fund’s net asset value to likewise decrease. For example, while securities with longer maturities and durations tend to produce higher yields, they also tend to be more sensitive to changes in prevailing interest rates and are therefore more volatile than shorter-term securities and are subject to greater market fluctuations as a result of changes in interest rates. Further, during periods of very low or negative interest rates, the Fund may not be able to maintain positive returns. The Fund may be subject to heightened interest rate risk because the Federal Reserve has ended its monetary stimulus program known as quantitative easing and interest rates are near historically low levels. The Federal Reserve raised the federal funds rate several times in recent periods and has signaled additional increases in the near future. To the extent the Federal Reserve continues to raise rates, there is a risk that the fixed-income markets will experience increased volatility and that the liquidity of certain Fund investments may be reduced. These developments could cause the Fund’s net asset value to fluctuate or make it more difficult for the Fund to accurately value its securities. These developments or others also could cause the Fund to face increased shareholder redemptions, which may lead to increased portfolio turnover and transaction costs, or could force the Fund to liquidate investments at disadvantageous times or prices, therefore adversely affecting the Fund as well as the value of your investment. The amount of assets deemed illiquid remaining within the Fund may also increase, making it more difficult to meet shareholder redemptions and further adversely affecting the value of the Fund. How specific fixed-income securities may react to changes in interest rates will depend on the specific characteristics of each security. Fixed-income securities are also subject to credit risk, prepayment risk, valuation risk, extension risk, and liquidity risk. Credit risk is the risk that the credit strength of an issuer of a fixed-income security will weaken and/or that the issuer will be unable to make timely principal and interest payments and that the security may go into default. Prepayment risk is the risk that during periods of falling interest rates, certain fixed-income securities with higher interest rates, such as mortgage- and asset-backed securities, may be prepaid by their issuers thereby reducing the amount of interest payments. Valuation risk is the risk that one or more of the fixed-income securities in which the Fund invests are priced differently than the value realized upon such security’s sale. In times of market instability, valuation may be more difficult. Extension risk is the risk that borrowers may pay off their debt obligations more slowly in times of rising interest rates, which will lengthen the duration of the portfolio. Liquidity risk is the risk that fixed-income securities may be difficult or impossible to sell at the time that the portfolio managers would like or at the price the portfolio managers believe the security is currently worth. Liquidity risk may be increased to the extent that the Fund invests in Rule 144A and restricted securities.

Sovereign Debt Risk. The Fund may invest in U.S. and non-U.S. government debt securities (“sovereign debt”). Some investments in sovereign debt, such as U.S. sovereign debt, are considered low risk. However, investments in sovereign debt, especially the debt of less developed countries, can involve a high degree of risk, including the risk that the governmental entity that controls the repayment of sovereign debt may not be willing or able to repay the principal and/or to pay the interest on its sovereign debt in a timely manner. A sovereign debtor’s willingness or ability to satisfy its debt obligation may be affected by various factors including, but not limited to, its cash flow situation, the extent of its foreign currency reserves, the availability of foreign exchange when a payment is due, and the relative size of its debt position in relation to its economy as a whole. In the event of default, there may be limited or no legal remedies for collecting sovereign debt and there may be no bankruptcy proceedings through which the Fund may collect all or part of the sovereign debt that a governmental entity has not repaid. In addition, to the extent the Fund invests in non-U.S. sovereign debt, it may be subject to currency risk.

Mortgage- and Asset-Backed Securities Risk. Mortgage- and asset-backed securities represent interests in “pools” of commercial or residential mortgages or other assets, including consumer loans or receivables. Mortgage- and asset-backed securities tend to be more sensitive to changes in interest rates than other types of debt securities. Investments in mortgage- and asset-backed securities are subject to both extension risk, where borrowers pay off their debt obligations more slowly in times of rising interest rates, and prepayment risk, where borrowers pay off their debt obligations sooner than expected in times of declining interest rates. These risks may reduce the Fund’s returns. In addition, investments in mortgage- and asset-backed securities, including those comprised of subprime mortgages, may be subject to a higher degree of credit risk, valuation risk, and liquidity risk than various other types of fixed-income securities.

4	Janus Henderson Balanced Fund

Foreign Exposure Risk. The Fund may have exposure to foreign markets as a result of its investments in foreign securities, including investments in emerging markets, 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. 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. The Fund’s investments in emerging market countries may involve risks greater than, or in addition to, the risks of investing in more developed countries.

High-Yield/High-Risk Bond Risk. High-yield/high-risk bonds may be more sensitive than other types of bonds to economic changes, political changes, or adverse developments specific to the company that issued the bond, which may adversely affect their value.

TBA Commitments Risk. The Fund may enter into “to be announced” or “TBA” commitments. Although the particular TBA securities must meet industry-accepted “good delivery” standards, there can be no assurance that a security purchased on a forward commitment basis will ultimately be issued or delivered by the counterparty. During the settlement period, the Fund will still bear the risk of any decline in the value of the security to be delivered. Because TBA commitments do not require the purchase and sale of identical securities, the characteristics of the security delivered to the Fund may be less favorable than the security delivered to the dealer. If the counterparty to a transaction fails to deliver the securities, the Fund could suffer a loss.

Management Risk. The Fund is an actively managed investment portfolio and is therefore subject to the risk that the investment strategies employed for the Fund may fail to produce the intended results. The Fund may underperform its benchmark index or other mutual funds with similar investment objectives.

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 T Shares (formerly named Class J Shares, the initial share class) of the Fund commenced operations with the Fund’s inception. Class A Shares, Class C Shares, Class S Shares, Class I Shares, and Class R Shares of the Fund commenced operations on July 6, 2009. Class N Shares of the Fund commenced operations on May 31, 2012.

•	The performance shown for Class T Shares is calculated using the fees and expenses of Class T Shares in effect during the periods shown, net of any applicable fee and expense limitations or waivers.
•	The performance shown for Class A Shares, Class C Shares, Class S Shares, and Class R Shares for periods prior to July 6, 2009, reflects the performance of the Fund’s former Class J Shares, calculated using the fees and expenses of each respective share class, without the effect of any fee and expense limitations or waivers.
•	The performance shown for Class I Shares for periods prior to July 6, 2009, reflects the performance of the Fund’s former Class J Shares, calculated using the fees and expenses of Class J Shares, net of any applicable fee and expense limitations or waivers.

5	Janus Henderson Balanced Fund

•	The performance shown for Class N Shares for periods prior to May 31, 2012, reflects the performance of the Fund’s Class T Shares, calculated using the fees and expenses of Class T Shares, net of any applicable fee and expense limitations or waivers.

If Class A Shares, Class C Shares, Class S Shares, Class I Shares, and Class R Shares of the Fund had been available during periods prior to July 6, 2009, or Class N Shares of the Fund had been available during periods prior to May 31, 2012, the performance shown for each respective share class may have been different. The performance shown for periods following the Fund’s commencement of Class A Shares, Class C Shares, Class S Shares, Class I Shares, Class N Shares, and Class R 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. 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.

The Fund’s past performance (before and after taxes) does not necessarily indicate how it will perform in the future. Updated performance information is available at janushenderson.com/performance or by calling 1-877-335-2687.

The Fund’s primary benchmark index is the S&P 500 ^® Index. The Fund also compares its performance to the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index and the Balanced Index. The indices are described below.

•	The S&P 500 ^® Index is a commonly recognized, market-capitalization weighted index of 500 widely held equity securities, designed to measure broad U.S. equity performance.
•	The Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index is made up of the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Government/Corporate Bond Index, Mortgage-Backed Securities Index, and Asset-Backed Securities Index, including securities that are of investment grade quality or better, have at least one year to maturity, and have an outstanding par value of at least $100 million.
•	The Balanced Index is an internally-calculated, hypothetical combination of unmanaged indices that combines total returns from the S&P 500 ^® Index (55%) and the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index (45%).

After-tax returns are calculated using distributions for the Fund’s Class T Shares (formerly named Class J Shares, the initial share class). 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 table. 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 T Shares of the Fund. After-tax returns for the other classes of Shares will vary from those shown for Class T Shares due to varying sales charges (as applicable), fees, and expenses among the classes.

Tax Information

Payments to Broker-Dealers and Other Financial Intermediaries

If you purchase Class A Shares, Class C Shares, Class S Shares, Class I Shares, Class R Shares, or Class T Shares of the 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. Ask your salesperson or visit your financial intermediary’s website for more information.

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES

The Fund pursues its investment objective by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) in equity securities with the potential for long-term growth of capital. The portfolio manager seeks to invest in companies where the stock price trades at a significant discount to the portfolio manager’s estimate of fair value and whose intrinsic value the portfolio manager believes will grow over time. The Fund may invest in companies of any size, from larger, well-established companies to smaller, emerging growth companies. The Fund may also invest in foreign securities, which may include investments in emerging markets.

The portfolio manager applies a “bottom up” approach in choosing investments. In other words, the portfolio manager looks at companies one at a time to determine if a company is an attractive investment opportunity and if it is consistent with the Fund’s investment policies.

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.

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 or if the portfolio manager’s belief about a company’s intrinsic worth is incorrect. 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. Market risk may affect a single issuer, industry, economic sector, or the market as a whole.

Growth Securities Risk. The Fund invests in companies that the portfolio manager believes have growth potential. Securities of companies perceived to be “growth” companies may be more volatile than other stocks and may involve special risks. If the portfolio manager’s perception of 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.

11	Janus Henderson Contrarian Fund

Nondiversification Risk. The Fund is classified as nondiversified under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. This gives the Fund’s portfolio manager more flexibility to hold larger positions in a smaller number of securities. As a result, an increase or decrease in the value of a single security held by the Fund may have a greater impact on the Fund’s net asset value and total return.

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.

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES

The Fund pursues its investment objective by investing primarily in common stocks selected for their growth potential, and normally invests at least 50% of its equity assets in medium-sized companies. Medium-sized companies are those whose market capitalization falls within the range of companies in the Russell Midcap ^® Growth Index. Market capitalization is a commonly used measure of the size and value of a company. The market capitalizations within the index will vary, but as of September 30, 2017, they ranged from approximately $1.46 billion to $59.68 billion. The Fund may also invest in foreign securities, which may include investments in emerging markets. In addition, the Fund’s investments may include securities of real-estate related companies, including real estate investment trusts.

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

Mid-Sized Companies Risk. The Fund’s investments in securities issued by mid-sized companies may involve greater risks than are customarily associated with larger, more established companies. Securities issued by mid-sized companies tend to be more volatile than securities issued by larger or more established companies and may underperform as compared to the securities of larger or more established companies.

17	Janus Henderson Enterprise Fund

the portfolio managers’ perception of 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.

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.

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.

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT RISKS

23	Janus Henderson Forty Fund

Nondiversification Risk. The Fund is classified as nondiversified under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. This gives the Fund’s portfolio managers more flexibility to hold larger positions in a smaller number of securities. As a result, an increase or decrease in the value of a single security held by the Fund may have a greater impact on the Fund’s net asset value and total return.

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.

The Fund’s primary benchmark index is the Russell 1000 ^® Growth Index. The Fund also compares its performance to the S&P 500 ^® Index. The Russell 1000 ^® Growth Index is used to calculate the Fund’s performance fee adjustment. The indices are described below.

•	The S&P 500 ^® Index is a commonly recognized, market-capitalization weighted index of 500 widely held equity securities, designed to measure broad U.S. equity performance.

After-tax returns are calculated using distributions for the Fund’s Class S Shares for periods following July 6, 2009; for the JAD predecessor fund’s Class S Shares (formerly named Class I Shares) for the periods August 1, 2000 to July 6, 2009; and actual distributions for other classes of shares for periods prior to August 1, 2000. 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 table. 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 the Fund. After-tax returns for the other classes of Shares will vary from those shown for Class S Shares due to varying sales charges (as applicable), fees, and expenses among the classes.

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES

The Fund pursues its investment objective by normally emphasizing investments in common stocks. The Fund will normally invest up to 75% of its assets in equity securities selected primarily for their growth potential and at least 25% of its assets in securities the portfolio managers believe have income potential.

With respect to the selection of equity securities selected for growth potential, the portfolio managers additionally consider income-generating potential. Eligible equity securities in which the Fund may invest include:

•	domestic and foreign common stocks
•	preferred stocks
•	securities convertible into common stocks or preferred stocks, such as convertible preferred stocks, bonds, and debentures
•	other securities with equity characteristics

With respect to the selection of securities selected for income potential, equity securities may make up part or all of the income component if they currently pay dividends or the portfolio managers believe they have potential for increasing or commencing dividend payments. The Fund invests to a lesser extent in fixed-income securities, such as corporate bonds.

The Fund may also invest in foreign securities, which may include investments in emerging markets.

The Fund may invest its assets in derivatives, which are instruments that have a value derived from, or directly linked to, an underlying asset, such as equity securities, fixed-income securities, commodities, currencies, interest rates, or market indices, as substitutes for securities in which the Fund invests. The types of derivatives in which the Fund may invest include put and call options. The Fund may invest in derivative instruments (by taking long and/or short positions) for different purposes, including hedging (to offset risks associated with an investment, currency exposure, or market conditions) and to earn income and enhance returns.

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

30	Janus Henderson Growth and Income Fund

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. Market risk may affect a single issuer, industry, economic sector, or the market as a whole.

Fixed-Income Securities Risk. The Fund may hold debt and other fixed-income securities to generate income. Typically, the values of fixed-income securities change inversely with prevailing interest rates. Therefore, a fundamental risk of fixed-income securities is interest rate risk, which is the risk that the value of such securities will generally decline as prevailing interest rates rise, which may cause the Fund’s net asset value to likewise decrease. For example, while securities with longer maturities and durations tend to produce higher yields, they also tend to be more sensitive to changes in prevailing interest rates and are therefore more volatile than shorter-term securities and are subject to greater market fluctuations as a result of changes in interest rates. Further, during periods of very low or negative interest rates, the Fund may not be able to maintain positive returns. The Fund may be subject to heightened interest rate risk because the Federal Reserve has ended its monetary stimulus program known as quantitative easing and interest rates are near historically low levels. The Federal Reserve raised the federal funds rate several times in recent periods and has signaled additional increases in the near future. To the extent the Federal Reserve continues to raise rates, there is a risk that the fixed-income markets will experience increased volatility and that the liquidity of certain Fund investments may be reduced. These developments could cause the Fund’s net asset value to fluctuate or make it more difficult for the Fund to accurately value its securities. These developments or others also could cause the Fund to face increased shareholder redemptions, which may lead to increased portfolio turnover and transaction costs, or could force the Fund to liquidate investments at disadvantageous times or prices, therefore adversely affecting the Fund as well as the value of your investment. The amount of assets deemed illiquid remaining within the Fund may also increase, making it more difficult to meet shareholder redemptions and further adversely affecting the value of the Fund. How specific fixed-income securities may react to changes in interest rates will depend on the specific characteristics of each security. Fixed-income securities are also subject to credit risk, prepayment risk, valuation risk, extension risk, and liquidity risk. Credit risk is the risk that the credit strength of an issuer of a fixed-income security will weaken and/or that the issuer will be unable to make timely principal and interest payments and that the security may go into default. Prepayment risk is the risk that during periods of falling interest rates, certain fixed-income securities with higher interest rates, such as mortgage- and asset-backed securities, may be prepaid by their issuers thereby reducing the amount of interest payments. Valuation risk is the risk that one or more of the fixed-income securities in which the Fund invests are priced differently than the value realized upon such security’s sale. In times of market instability, valuation may be more difficult. Extension risk is the risk that borrowers may pay off their debt obligations more slowly in times of rising interest rates, which will lengthen the duration of the portfolio. Liquidity risk is the risk that fixed-income securities may be difficult or impossible to sell at the time that the portfolio managers would like or at the price the portfolio managers believe the security is currently worth.

and can therefore involve leverage. Leverage may cause the Fund to be more volatile than if it had not used leverage. Derivatives can be less liquid than other types of investments and entail the risk that the counterparty will default on its payment obligations. The Fund may use derivatives for hedging purposes. Hedging with derivatives may increase expenses, and there is no guarantee that a hedging strategy will work. While hedging can reduce or eliminate losses, it can also reduce or eliminate gains or cause losses if the market moves in a manner different from that anticipated by the Fund or if the cost of the derivative outweighs the benefit of the hedge.

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.

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.

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES

The Fund pursues its investment objective by investing primarily in common stocks selected for their growth potential. The Fund may invest in companies of any size, from larger, well-established companies to smaller, emerging growth companies.

Janus Capital’s equity research analysts, overseen by the Portfolio Oversight Team led by Janus Capital’s Director of Research Carmel Wellso (the “Research Team”), select investments for the Fund that represent the Research Team’s high-conviction investment ideas in all market capitalizations and styles. The Research Team, comprised of sector specialists, conducts fundamental analysis with a focus on “bottom up” research, quantitative modeling, and valuation analysis. Using this research process, analysts rate their stocks based upon attractiveness. Analysts bring their high-conviction ideas to their respective sector teams. Sector teams compare the appreciation and risk potential of each of the team’s high-conviction ideas and construct a sector portfolio that is intended to maximize the best risk-reward opportunities. Although the Research Team may find high-conviction investment ideas anywhere in the world, the Research Team emphasizes investments in securities of U.S.-based issuers.

Positions may be sold when, among other things, there is no longer high conviction in the return potential of the investment or if the risk characteristics have caused a re-evaluation of the opportunity. This may occur if the stock has appreciated and reflects the anticipated value, if another company represents a better risk-reward opportunity, or if the investment’s fundamental characteristics deteriorate. Securities may also be sold from the portfolio to rebalance sector weightings.

Ms. Wellso oversees the investment process and is responsible for the day-to-day management of the Fund. It is expected that the Fund will be broadly diversified among a variety of industry sectors. The Fund intends to be fully invested under normal circumstances. However, under unusual circumstances, if the Research Team does not have high conviction in enough investment opportunities, the Fund’s uninvested assets may be held in cash or similar instruments.

The Fund may also invest its assets in derivatives, which are instruments that have a value derived from, or directly linked to, an underlying asset, such as equity securities, fixed-income securities, commodities, currencies, interest rates, or market indices. The types of derivatives in which the Fund may invest include options and swaps. The Fund may use derivatives to manage the Fund’s equity exposure, to offset risks associated with an investment or market conditions, and to gain access to markets where direct investment may be restricted or unavailable. The Fund may also hold derivatives, such as warrants, in connection with corporate actions.

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

37	Janus Henderson Research Fund

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 or if the investment personnel’s belief about a company’s intrinsic worth is incorrect. 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. Market risk may affect a single issuer, industry, economic sector, or the market as a whole.

Growth Securities Risk. The Fund invests in companies that the investment personnel believe have growth potential. Securities of companies perceived to be “growth” companies may be more volatile than other stocks and may involve special risks. If the investment personnel’s perception of 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. The Fund’s Research Team compares and broadly matches the Fund’s sector weights to those of a growth-based index. If growth stocks are out of favor, sectors that are larger in a growth index may underperform, leading to Fund underperformance relative to indices less biased toward growth stocks.

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 T Shares (formerly named Class J Shares, the initial share class) of the Fund commenced operations with the Fund’s inception. Class A Shares, Class C Shares, Class S Shares, and Class I Shares of the Fund commenced operations on July 6, 2009. Class N Shares of the Fund commenced operations on May 31, 2012. Class R Shares of the Fund commenced operations on January 27, 2017.

•	The performance shown for Class T Shares is calculated using the fees and expenses of Class T Shares in effect during the periods shown, net of any applicable fee and expense limitations or waivers.
•	The performance shown for Class A Shares, Class C Shares, and Class S Shares for periods prior to July 6, 2009, reflects the performance of the Fund’s former Class J Shares, calculated using the fees and expenses of each respective share class, without the effect of any fee and expense limitations or waivers.
•	The performance shown for Class I Shares for periods prior to July 6, 2009, reflects the performance of the Fund’s former Class J Shares, calculated using the fees and expenses of Class J Shares, net of any applicable fee and expense limitations or waivers.

38	Janus Henderson Research Fund

•	The performance shown for Class N Shares for periods prior to May 31, 2012, reflects the performance of the Fund’s Class T Shares, calculated using the fees and expenses of Class T Shares, net of any applicable fee and expense limitations or waivers.

•	The performance shown for Class R Shares for periods prior to January 27, 2017, reflects the performance of the Fund’s Class T Shares, calculated using the fees and expenses of Class R Shares, without the effect of any fee and expense limitations or waivers.

If Class A Shares, Class C Shares, Class S Shares, and Class I Shares of the Fund had been available during periods prior to July 6, 2009, Class N Shares of the Fund had been available during periods prior to May 31, 2012, or Class R Shares of the Fund had been available during periods prior to January 27, 2017, the performance shown for each respective share class may have been different. The performance shown for periods following the Fund’s commencement of Class A Shares, Class C Shares, Class S Shares, Class I Shares, Class N Shares, and Class R Shares reflects the fees and expenses of each respective share class, net of any applicable fee and expense limitations or waivers.

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES

The Fund pursues its investment objective by investing primarily in common stocks selected for their growth potential. In pursuing that objective, the Fund invests in equity securities of small- and medium-sized companies. Generally, small- and medium-sized companies have a market capitalization of less than $10 billion. Market capitalization is a commonly used measure of the size and value of a company. From time to time, the Fund may invest in shares of companies through initial public offerings.

The Fund may also invest in foreign securities, which may include investments in emerging markets.

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

44	Janus Henderson Triton Fund

Initial Public Offering Risk. The Fund’s purchase of shares issued in an initial public offering (“IPO”) exposes it to the risks associated with companies that have little operating history as public companies, as well as to the risks inherent in those sectors of the market where these new issuers operate. Although IPO investments may have had a positive impact on the Fund’s performance in the past, there can be no assurance that the Fund will identify favorable IPO investment opportunities in the future. In addition, as the Fund increases in size, the impact of IPOs on the Fund’s performance will generally decrease.

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.

(1)	Other Expenses have been restated to reflect the estimated expenses that the Fund expects to incur.

(2)

Janus Capital has contractually agreed to waive its investment advisory fee and/or reimburse operating expenses to the extent that the Fund’s total annual fund operating expenses (excluding the fees payable pursuant to a Rule 12b-1 plan, shareholder servicing fees, such as transfer agency fees (including out-of-pocket costs), administrative services fees and any networking/omnibus/administrative fees payable by any share class; brokerage commissions; interest; dividends; taxes; acquired fund fees and expenses; and extraordinary expenses) exceed 0.80% until at least February 1, 2019. The contractual waiver may be terminated or modified prior to this date only at the discretion of the Board of Trustees.

EXAMPLE:

50	Janus Henderson U.S. Growth Opportunities Fund

investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund’s operating expenses without waivers remain the same. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

If Shares are redeemed:	1 Year	3 Years	5 Years	10 Years
Class A Shares	$ 825	$ 1,343	$ 1,885	$ 3,359
Class C Shares	$ 436	$ 1,024	$ 1,736	$ 3,622

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. The portfolio turnover rate of Henderson US Growth Opportunities Fund (the “Predecessor Fund”) and the Fund for the fiscal year August 1, 2016 to July 31, 2017 was 27% of the average value of the portfolio. The portfolio turnover rate of the Fund for the fiscal period August 1, 2017 to September 30, 2017 was 2% of the average value of the portfolio.

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES

The Fund seeks to invest primarily in common stocks of U.S. companies of any market capitalization. In selecting stocks, the Fund uses bottom-up, fundamental analysis to identify companies with strong growth characteristics and experienced management. Security selection is based upon an analysis of the earnings growth prospects of a company, the quality of a company’s management, and the unique competitive advantages of a company. The Fund’s bottom-up approach is supplemented with top-down considerations. The Fund may also invest in securities issued by smaller companies and in less seasoned issuers.

The Fund generally sells a stock when, in the portfolio managers’ opinion, there is deterioration in the company’s fundamentals or if the security is no longer attractively valued. Investments may also be sold if the portfolio managers believe a higher conviction investment opportunity arises.

There is no limitation on the market capitalization range of companies in which the Fund may invest. The Fund may invest a significant portion of its assets in smaller and less seasoned issuers. The Fund may also, from time to time, invest in exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”).

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT RISKS

51	Janus Henderson U.S. Growth Opportunities Fund

investment may fall, sometimes sharply, in response to changes in the market, and you could lose money. Market risk may affect a single issuer, industry, economic sector, or the market as a whole.

Sector Risk. At times, the Fund may have a significant portion of its assets invested in securities of companies conducting business within an economic sector. Companies in the same economic sector may be similarly affected by economic or market events, making the Fund more vulnerable to unfavorable developments in that economic sector than funds that invest more broadly. As the Fund’s portfolio becomes more concentrated, the Fund is less able to spread risk and potentially reduce the risk of loss and volatility.

Small- and Mid-Sized Companies Risk. The Fund’s investments in securities issued by small- and mid-sized companies, which can include smaller, start-up companies offering emerging products or services, may involve greater risks than are customarily associated with larger, more established companies. For example, while small- and mid-sized companies may realize more substantial growth than larger or more established issuers, they may also suffer more significant losses as a result of their narrow product lines, limited operating history, greater exposure to competitive threats, limited financial resources, limited trading markets, and the potential lack of management depth. Securities issued by small- and mid-sized companies tend to be more volatile and somewhat more speculative than securities issued by larger or more established companies and may underperform as compared to the securities of larger or more established companies. These holdings are also subject to wider price fluctuations and tend to be less liquid than stocks of larger or more established companies, which could have a significant adverse effect on the Fund’s returns, especially as market conditions change.

Exchange-Traded Funds Risk. The Fund may invest in ETFs to gain exposure to a particular portion of the market. ETFs are typically open-end investment companies, which may seek to track the performance of a specific index or be actively managed. ETFs are traded on a national securities exchange at market prices that may vary from the net asset value of their underlying investments. Accordingly, there may be times when an ETF trades at a premium or discount. When the Fund invests in an ETF, in addition to directly bearing the expenses associated with its own operations, it will bear a pro rata portion of the ETF’s expenses. The Fund is also subject to the risks associated with the securities in which the ETF invests.

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.

Returns of the Fund will be different from the Predecessor Fund as they have different expenses.

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. 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.

The Fund’s (and the Predecessor 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 janushenderson.com/performance or by calling 1-877-335-2687.

The Fund’s primary benchmark index is the Russell 3000 ^® Growth Index. The index is described below.

•

The Russell 3000 ^® Growth Index is an unmanaged market capitalization weighted index of common stock prices that measures the performance of the broad growth segment of the U.S. equity universe. It includes those Russell 3000 ^® Index companies with higher price-to-book ratios and higher forecasted growth values. The Russell 3000 ^® Index measures the performance of the largest 3000 U.S. companies representing approximately 98% of the investable U.S. equity market. It is not possible to invest directly in an index.

After-tax returns are calculated using distributions for the Predecessor Fund’s Class I Shares for the period prior to June 5, 2017. If Class I Shares of the Fund had been available during periods prior to June 5, 2017, the distributions used to calculate the after-tax returns may have been different. 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 table. 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 I Shares of the Fund. After-tax returns for the other classes of Shares will vary from those shown for Class I Shares due to varying sales charges (as applicable), fees, and expenses among the classes.

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES

The Fund pursues its investment objective by investing at least 50% of its equity assets in small-sized companies. The Fund may also invest in larger companies with strong growth potential or relatively well-known and large companies with potential for capital appreciation. Small-sized companies are defined by the portfolio managers as those companies whose market capitalization falls within the range of companies in the Russell 2000 ^® Growth Index at the time of purchase. Market capitalization is a commonly used measure of the size and value of a company. The market capitalizations within the index will vary, but as of September 30, 2017, they ranged from approximately $340 million to $10.26 billion. The Fund may invest in shares of companies through initial public offerings.

The Fund may also invest in foreign securities, which may include investments in emerging markets.

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

Small-Sized Companies Risk. The Fund’s investments in securities issued by small-sized companies, which can include smaller, start-up companies offering emerging products or services, may involve greater risks than are customarily associated with larger, more established companies. Securities issued by small-sized companies tend to be more volatile and somewhat more speculative than securities issued by larger or more established companies and may underperform as compared to the securities of larger or more established companies.

57	Janus Henderson Venture Fund

depending on market and economic conditions, “growth” stocks may perform differently from the market as a whole and other types of securities.

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 T Shares (formerly named Class J Shares, the initial share class) of the Fund commenced operations with the Fund’s inception. Class A Shares, Class C Shares, Class S Shares, and Class I Shares of the Fund commenced operations on May 6, 2011. Class N Shares of the Fund commenced operations on May 31, 2012.

•	The performance shown for Class T Shares is calculated using the fees and expenses of Class T Shares in effect during the periods shown, net of any applicable fee and expense limitations or waivers.
•	The performance shown for Class A Shares, Class C Shares, and Class S Shares for periods prior to May 6, 2011, reflects the performance of the Fund’s former Class J Shares, calculated using the fees and expenses of each respective share class, without the effect of any fee and expense limitations or waivers.
•	The performance shown for Class I Shares for periods prior to May 6, 2011, reflects the performance of the Fund’s former Class J Shares, calculated using the fees and expenses of Class J Shares, net of any applicable fee and expense limitations or waivers.
•	The performance shown for Class N Shares for periods prior to May 31, 2012, reflects the performance of the Fund’s Class T Shares, calculated using the fees and expenses of Class T Shares, net of any applicable fee and expense limitations or waivers.

If Class A Shares, Class C Shares, Class S Shares, and Class I Shares of the Fund had been available during periods prior to May 6, 2011, or Class N Shares of the Fund had been available during periods prior to May 31, 2012, the performance

58	Janus Henderson Venture Fund

shown for each respective share class may have been different. The performance shown for periods following the Fund’s commencement of Class A Shares, Class C Shares, Class S Shares, Class I Shares, and Class N Shares reflects the fees and expenses of each respective share class, net of any applicable fee and expense limitations or waivers.

Additional information about the Funds

Fees and expenses

Please refer to the following important information when reviewing the “Fees and Expenses of the Fund” table in each Fund Summary of the Prospectus. The fees and expenses shown were determined based on net assets as of the fiscal year ended September 30, 2017, except for Janus Henderson U.S. Growth Opportunities Fund, which were based on the fiscal period August 1, 2017 to September 30, 2017.

•	“Shareholder Fees” are fees paid directly from your investment and may include sales loads.
•	“Annual Fund Operating Expenses” are paid out of a Fund’s assets and include fees for portfolio management and administrative services, including recordkeeping, subaccounting, and other shareholder services. You do not pay these fees directly but, as the Example in each Fund Summary shows, these costs are borne indirectly by all shareholders.

•

The “Management Fee” is the investment advisory fee rate paid by each Fund to Janus Capital. Janus Henderson Contrarian Fund, Janus Henderson Forty Fund, and Janus Henderson Research Fund each pay an investment advisory fee rate that adjusts up or down by a variable of up to 0.15% (assuming constant assets) on a monthly basis based upon the Fund’s performance relative to its benchmark index during a measurement period. This base fee rate, prior to any performance adjustment, is 0.64% for each of Janus Henderson Contrarian Fund, Janus Henderson Forty Fund, and Janus Henderson Research Fund. Refer to “Management Expenses” in this Prospectus for additional information with further description in the Statement of Additional Information (“SAI”).

•	“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, Class R 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 acquired fund fees and expenses, which are indirect expenses a Fund may incur as a result of investing in shares of an underlying fund. “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. 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, such amounts are less than 0.01%.

_°	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.

•

Janus Capital has contractually agreed to waive and/or reimburse each Fund’s “Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses” to certain limits until at least February 1, 2019. The expense limits are described in the “Management Expenses” section of this Prospectus. Because a fee waiver will have a positive effect upon a fund’s performance, a fund that pays a performance-based investment advisory fee may experience a performance adjustment that is considered favorable to Janus Capital as a result of a fee waiver that is in place during the period when the performance adjustment applies.

62	Janus Investment Fund

•	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. To the extent that a Fund has an 80% investment policy, the Fund will provide shareholders with at least 60 days’ notice prior to changing this policy. If there is a material change to a Fund’s investment 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 section provides additional information about the investment strategies and general policies that are summarized in the Fund Summary sections, including the types of securities each Fund may invest in when pursuing its investment objective. This section also describes investment strategies and policies that the Funds may use to a lesser extent. These non-principal investment strategies and policies may become more important in the future since a Fund’s composition can change over time. Except for the Funds’ policies with respect to investments in illiquid securities and borrowing, the percentage limitations included in these policies and elsewhere in this Prospectus and/or 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 may not always stay fully invested. For example, when the portfolio managers and/or investment personnel believe that market conditions are unfavorable for investing, or when they are otherwise unable to locate attractive investment opportunities, a Fund’s cash or similar investments may increase. In other words, cash or similar investments generally are a residual – they represent the assets that remain after a Fund has committed available assets to desirable investment opportunities. Due to differing investment strategies, the cash positions among the Funds may vary significantly. When a Fund’s investments in cash or similar investments increase, it may not participate in market advances or declines to the same extent that it would if the Fund remained more fully invested. 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.

In addition, a Fund may temporarily increase its cash position under certain unusual circumstances, such as to protect its assets or maintain liquidity in certain circumstances to meet unusually large redemptions. A Fund’s cash position may also increase temporarily due to unusually large cash inflows. Under unusual circumstances such as these, a Fund may invest up to 100% of its assets in cash or similar investments. In this case, the Fund may take positions that are inconsistent with its investment policies. As a result, the Fund may not achieve its investment objective.

Common Stock

63	Janus Investment Fund

Realization of income is not a significant consideration when choosing investments for the other Funds. Income realized on the Funds’ investments may be incidental to their investment objectives.

Janus Henderson Contrarian Fund’s portfolio manager will typically seek attractively valued companies. These companies may also include special situations companies that are experiencing management changes and/or are temporarily out of favor. A company may be considered attractively valued when, in the opinion of the portfolio manager, shares of the company are selling for a price that is below their intrinsic worth (“undervalued”). A company may be undervalued due to market or economic conditions, temporary earnings declines, unfavorable developments affecting the company, or other factors. Such factors may provide buying opportunities at attractive prices compared to historical or market price-earnings ratios, price/free cash flow, book value, or return on equity. The portfolio manager believes that buying these securities at a price that is below their intrinsic worth may generate greater returns for the Fund than those obtained by paying premium prices for companies currently in favor in the market.

Emerging Markets

Foreign Securities

Certain Funds may invest in foreign securities. The portfolio managers and/or investment personnel seek investments that meet the selection criteria, regardless of where an issuer or company is located. Foreign securities are generally selected on a security-by-security basis without regard to any predetermined allocation among countries or geographic regions. However, certain factors, such as expected levels of inflation, government policies influencing business conditions, the outlook for currency relationships, and prospects for economic growth among countries, regions, or geographic areas, may warrant greater consideration in selecting foreign securities. There are no limitations on the countries in which a Fund may invest, and a Fund may at times have significant foreign exposure, including exposure to emerging markets.

High-Yield/High-Risk Bonds

A high-yield/high-risk bond (also known as a “junk” bond) is a bond rated below investment grade by major rating agencies (i.e., BB+ or lower by Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services (“Standard & Poor’s”) and Fitch, Inc. (“Fitch”), or Ba or lower by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (“Moody’s”)) or is an unrated bond of similar quality. It presents greater risk of default (the failure to make timely interest and principal payments) than higher quality bonds. To the extent a Fund invests in high-yield/high-risk bonds, under normal circumstances, each Fund, with the exception of Janus Henderson Contrarian Fund, will limit its investments in high-yield/high-risk bonds to 35% or less of its net assets. Janus Henderson Contrarian Fund will limit its investments in such bonds to 20% or less of its net assets.

Illiquid Investments

Each Fund may invest up to 15% of its net assets in illiquid investments. An illiquid investment is a security or other position that cannot be disposed of quickly in the normal course of business. For example, some securities are not registered under U.S. securities laws and cannot be sold to the U.S. public because of Securities and Exchange Commission regulations (these are known as “restricted securities”). Under procedures adopted by the Funds’ Trustees, certain restricted securities that are determined to be liquid will not be counted toward this 15% limit.

Initial Public Offerings

A Fund may purchase shares issued as part of, or a short period after, a company’s initial public offering (“IPO”), and may at times dispose of those shares shortly after their acquisition. An IPO is the first sale of stock by a private company to the public. IPOs are often issued by smaller, younger companies seeking the capital to expand, but can also be done by large privately-owned companies looking to become publicly traded.

Loans

Janus Henderson Balanced Fund 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. These loans may be acquired through loan participations and assignments or on a when-issued basis. Commercial loans will comprise no more than 20% of the Fund’s total assets.

64	Janus Investment Fund

assignment of, loans originated by a lender or other financial institution. These investments may include institutionally-traded floating and fixed-rate debt securities.

Bridge Loans. Bridge loans are short-term loan arrangements typically made by a borrower in anticipation of receiving intermediate-term or long-term permanent financing. Most bridge loans are structured as floating-rate debt with step-up provisions under which the interest rate on the bridge loan increases the longer the loan remains outstanding. In addition, bridge loans commonly contain a conversion feature that allows the bridge loan investor to convert its loan interest to senior exchange notes if the loan has not been prepaid in full on or prior to its maturity date. Bridge loans typically are structured as senior loans, but may be structured as junior loans.

DIP Loans. DIP loans are issued in connection with restructuring and refinancing transactions. DIP loans are loans to a debtor-in-possession in a proceeding under the U.S. bankruptcy code that have been approved by the bankruptcy court. DIP loans are typically fully secured by a lien on the debtor’s otherwise unencumbered assets or secured by a junior lien on the debtor’s encumbered assets (so long as the loan is fully secured based on the most recent current valuation or appraisal report of the debtor). DIP loans are often required to close with certainty and in a rapid manner to satisfy existing creditors and to enable the issuer to emerge from bankruptcy or to avoid a bankruptcy proceeding.

Mezzanine Loans. Mezzanine loans are a hybrid of debt and equity financing that is typically used to fund the expansion of existing companies. A mezzanine loan is composed of debt capital that gives the lender the right to convert to an ownership or equity interest in the company if the loan is not paid back in time and in full. Mezzanine loans typically are the most subordinated debt obligation in an issuer’s capital structure.

Mortgage- and Asset-Backed Securities

A Fund may purchase fixed or variable rate commercial or residential mortgage-backed securities issued by the Government National Mortgage Association (“Ginnie Mae”), the Federal National Mortgage Association (“Fannie Mae”), the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“Freddie Mac”), or other governmental or government-related entities. Ginnie Mae’s guarantees are backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government, which means that the U.S. Government guarantees that the interest and principal will be paid when due. Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac securities are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government.

A Fund may also purchase mortgage- and asset-backed securities through single- and multi-seller conduits, collateralized debt obligations, structured investment vehicles, and other similar securities. Asset-backed securities may be backed by various consumer obligations, including automobile loans, equipment leases, credit card receivables, or other collateral. In the event the underlying loans are not paid, the securities’ issuer could be forced to sell the assets and recognize losses on such assets, which could impact a Fund’s yield and return.

Nondiversification

Diversification is a way to reduce risk by investing in a broad range of stocks or other securities. Janus Henderson Contrarian Fund and Janus Henderson Forty Fund are classified as “nondiversified.” A fund that is classified as “nondiversified” 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 which is classified as nondiversified more flexibility to focus its investments in companies that the portfolio managers 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 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. This fluctuation, if significant, may affect the performance of the fund.

Portfolio Turnover

In general, each Fund intends to purchase securities for long-term investment, although, to a limited extent, a Fund may purchase securities in anticipation of relatively short-term gains. Short-term transactions may also result from liquidity needs, securities having reached a price or yield objective, changes in interest rates or the credit standing of an issuer, or by reason of economic or other developments not foreseen at the time of the initial investment decision. A Fund may also sell one security and simultaneously purchase the same or a comparable security to take advantage of short-term differentials in bond yields or securities prices. Portfolio turnover is affected by market conditions, changes in the size of a Fund (including due to shareholder purchases and redemptions), the nature of a Fund’s investments, and the investment style of the portfolio manager and/or investment personnel. Changes are normally made in a Fund’s portfolio whenever the portfolio manager

65	Janus Investment Fund

and/or investment personnel believe such changes are desirable. Portfolio turnover rates are generally not a factor in making buy and sell decisions for the Funds.

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

A Fund may invest in 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. A 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.

Short Sales

Certain Funds may engage in short sales. In general, no more than 10% of a Fund’s net assets may be invested in short positions (through short sales of stocks, structured products, futures, swaps, and uncovered written calls). A Fund may engage in short sales “against the box” and options for hedging purposes that are not subject to this 10% limit. A short sale is generally a transaction in which a Fund sells a security it does not own or have the right to acquire (or that it owns but does not wish to deliver) in anticipation that the market price of that security will decline. To complete the transaction, the Fund must borrow the security to make delivery to the buyer. The Fund is then obligated to replace the security borrowed by purchasing the security at the market price at the time of replacement. A short sale is subject to the risk that if the price of the security sold short increases in value, the Fund will incur a loss because it will have to replace the security sold short by purchasing it at a higher price. In addition, the Fund may not always be able to close out a short position at a particular time or at an acceptable price. A lender may request, or market conditions may dictate, that the securities sold short be returned to the lender on short notice, and the Fund may have to buy the securities sold short at an unfavorable price. If this occurs at a time that other short sellers of the same security also want to close out their positions, it is more likely that the 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. Because there is no upper limit to the price a borrowed security may reach prior to closing a short position, a Fund’s losses are potentially unlimited in a short sale transaction. A Fund’s gains and losses will also be decreased or increased, as the case may be, by the amount of any dividends, interest, or expenses, including transaction costs and borrowing fees, the Fund may be required to pay in connection with a short sale. Such payments may result in the Fund having higher expenses than a Fund that does not engage in short sales and may negatively affect the Fund’s performance.

A Fund may also enter into short positions through derivative instruments such as options contracts, futures contracts, and swap agreements which may expose the Fund to similar risks. To the extent that a Fund enters into short derivative positions, the Fund may be exposed to risks similar to those associated with short sales, including the risk that the Fund’s losses are theoretically unlimited. Short sales and short derivatives positions have a leveraging effect on a Fund, which may increase the Fund’s volatility.

66	Janus Investment Fund

Special Situations

The Funds may invest in companies that demonstrate special situations or turnarounds, meaning companies that have experienced significant business problems but are believed to have favorable prospects for recovery. For example, a special situation or turnaround may arise when, in the opinion of a Fund’s portfolio managers and/or investment personnel, the securities of a particular issuer will be recognized as undervalued by the market and appreciate in value due to a specific development with respect to that issuer. Special situations may include significant changes in a company’s allocation of its existing capital, a restructuring of assets, or a redirection of free cash flow. For example, issuers undergoing significant capital changes may include companies involved in spin-offs, sales of divisions, mergers or acquisitions, companies involved in bankruptcy proceedings, or companies initiating large changes in their debt to equity ratio. Companies that are redirecting cash flows may be reducing debt, repurchasing shares, or paying dividends. Special situations may also result from: (i) significant changes in industry structure through regulatory developments or shifts in competition; (ii) a new or improved product, service, operation, or technological advance; (iii) changes in senior management or other extraordinary corporate event; (iv) differences in market supply of and demand for the security; or (v) significant changes in cost structure. Investments in “special situations” companies can present greater risks than investments in companies not experiencing special situations, and a Fund’s performance could be adversely impacted if the securities selected decline in value or fail to appreciate in value.

Swap Agreements

Certain Funds may utilize swap agreements including, but not limited to, credit default swaps, equity swaps, inflation index swaps, interest rate and currency swaps, total return swaps (including fixed-income total return swaps), and swaps on exchange-traded funds, as a means to gain exposure to certain companies or countries, and/or to “hedge” or protect their portfolios from adverse movements in securities prices, the rate of inflation, or interest rates. Swaps may also be used for capital appreciation. Swap agreements are two-party contracts to exchange one set of cash flows for another. Swap agreements entail the risk that a party will default on its payment obligations to a Fund. If the other party to a swap defaults, the Fund would risk the loss of the net amount of the payments that it contractually is entitled to receive. If a Fund utilizes a swap at the wrong time or judges market conditions incorrectly, the swap may result in a loss to the Fund and reduce the Fund’s total return. Various types of swaps such as credit default, equity, interest rate, and total return are described in the “Glossary of Investment Terms.”

TBA Commitments

A Fund may enter into “to be announced” or “TBA” commitments. TBA commitments are forward agreements for the purchase or sale of securities, including mortgage-backed securities, for a fixed price, with payment and delivery on an agreed upon future settlement date. The specific securities to be delivered are not identified at the trade date. However, delivered securities must meet specified terms, including issuer, rate, and mortgage terms.

U.S. Government Securities

Each Fund, particularly Janus Henderson Balanced Fund, may invest in U.S. Government securities. U.S. Government securities include those issued directly by the U.S. Treasury and those issued or guaranteed by various U.S. Government agencies and instrumentalities. Some government securities are backed by the full faith and credit of the United States. Other government securities are backed only by the rights of the issuer to borrow from the U.S. Treasury. Others are supported by the discretionary authority of the U.S. Government to purchase the obligations. Certain other government securities are supported only by the credit of the issuer. For securities not backed by the full faith and credit of the United States, a Fund 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. Such securities may involve increased risk of loss of principal and interest compared to government debt securities that are backed by the full faith and credit of the United States.

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.

Other Types of Investments

67	Janus Investment Fund

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)
•	other investment companies (such as exchange-traded funds)
•	preferred stocks and securities convertible into common stocks or preferred stocks
•	indexed/structured securities (such as commercial and residential mortgage- and asset-backed securities)

•

various derivative transactions (which could comprise a significant percentage of a fund’s portfolio) including, but not limited to, options, futures on U.S. and foreign exchanges, forwards, swap agreements, warrants, 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 access to foreign markets where direct investment may be restricted or unavailable, 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
•	equity and fixed-income securities issued in private placement transactions

Risks of the Funds

The value of your investment will vary over time, sometimes significantly, and you may lose money by investing in the Funds. To varying degrees, the Funds may invest in stocks, fixed-income securities, money market instruments or cash/cash equivalents, and derivatives. The following information is intended to help you better understand some of the risks of investing in the Funds, including those risks that are summarized in the Fund Summary sections. This information also includes descriptions of other risks a Fund may be subject to as a result of additional investment strategies and general policies that may apply to the Fund. 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.

Convertible Securities Risk. A Fund may invest in securities that are convertible into preferred and common stocks, and thus, are subject to the risks of investments in both debt and equity securities. The market value of convertible securities tends to decline as interest rates increase and, conversely, tends to increase as interest rates decline. In addition, because of the conversion feature, the market value of convertible securities tends to vary with fluctuations in the market value of the underlying preferred and common stocks and, therefore, also will react to variations in the general market for equity securities.

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.

Credit Quality Risk. Through a Fund’s investments in fixed-income securities, a Fund is subject to the risks associated with the credit quality of the issuers of those fixed-income securities. Credit quality measures the likelihood that the issuer or borrower will meet its obligations on a bond. One of the fundamental risks is credit risk, which is the risk that an issuer will

68	Janus Investment Fund

be unable to make principal and interest payments when due, or default on its obligations. Higher credit risk may negatively impact a Fund’s returns and yield.

Many fixed-income securities receive credit ratings from services such as Standard & Poor’s, Fitch, and Moody’s. These services assign ratings to securities by assessing the likelihood of issuer default. The lower a bond issue is rated by an agency, the more credit risk it is considered to represent. Lower rated instruments and securities generally pay interest at a higher rate to compensate for the associated greater risk. Interest rates can fluctuate in response to economic or market conditions, which can result in a fluctuation in the price of a security and impact a Fund’s return and yield. If a security has not received a rating, a Fund must rely upon Janus Capital’s credit assessment, which if incorrect can also impact the Fund’s returns and yield. Please refer to the “Explanation of Rating Categories” section of the SAI for a description of bond rating categories.

Derivatives Risk. Derivatives can be highly volatile and involve risks in addition to the risks of the underlying referenced securities or asset. 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.

•

Forward Foreign Currency Exchange Contract Risk. Forward foreign currency exchange contracts (“forward currency contracts”) involve the risk that unanticipated changes in currency prices may negatively impact a Fund’s performance. Moreover, there may be an imperfect correlation between a Fund’s portfolio holdings of securities quoted or denominated in a particular currency and any forward currency contracts entered into by the Fund, which will expose the Fund to risk of foreign exchange loss. The trading markets for forward currency contracts offer less protection against defaults than trading in currency instruments on an exchange. Because a forward currency contract is not guaranteed by an exchange or clearinghouse, a default on the contract could result in losses to a Fund and may force the Fund to cover its purchase or sale commitments, if any, at the current market price. In addition, forward currency contract markets can experience periods of illiquidity, which could prevent a Fund from divesting of a forward currency contract at the optimal time and may adversely affect a Fund’s returns and net asset value.

it invests 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. Some of the risks of investing directly in foreign and emerging market securities may be reduced when a Fund invests indirectly in foreign securities through various other investment vehicles including derivatives, which also involve other risks.

Eurozone Risk. A number of countries in the European Union (“EU”) have experienced, and may continue to experience, severe economic and financial difficulties. In particular, many EU nations are susceptible to economic risks associated with high levels of debt, notably due to investments in sovereign debt of countries such as Greece, Italy, Spain, Portugal, and Ireland. 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. Greece, Ireland, and Portugal have already received one or more “bailouts” from other Eurozone member states, and it is unclear how much additional funding they will require or if additional Eurozone member states will require bailouts in the future. The risk of investing in securities in the European markets may also be heightened due to the referendum in which the United Kingdom voted to exit the EU (known as “Brexit”). There is considerable uncertainty about how Brexit will be conducted, how negotiations of necessary treaties and trade agreements will proceed, or how financial markets will react. In addition, one or more other countries may also abandon the euro and/or withdraw from the EU, placing its currency and banking system in jeopardy. 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.

Exchange-Traded Funds Risk. The Funds may invest in exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”) to gain exposure to a particular portion of the market. ETFs are typically open-end investment companies, which may seek to track the performance of a specific index or be actively managed. ETFs are traded on a national securities exchange at market prices that may vary from the net asset value of their underlying investments. Accordingly, there may be times when an ETF trades at a premium or discount. When a Fund invests in an ETF, in addition to directly bearing the expenses associated with its own operations, it will bear a pro rata portion of the ETF’s expenses. As a result, the cost of investing in a Fund may be higher than the cost of investing directly in ETFs and may be higher than other mutual funds that invest directly in stocks and bonds. ETFs also involve the risk that an active trading market for an ETF’s shares may not develop or be maintained. Similarly, because the value of ETF shares depends on the demand in the market, a Fund may not be able to purchase or sell an ETF at the most optimal time, which could adversely affect the Fund’s performance. In addition, ETFs that track particular indices may be unable to match the performance of such underlying indices due to the temporary unavailability of certain index securities in the secondary market or other factors, such as discrepancies with respect to the weighting of securities.

The ETFs in which a Fund invests are subject to specific risks, depending on the investment strategy of the ETF. In turn, a Fund will be subject to substantially the same risks as those associated with direct exposure to the securities or commodities held by the ETF. Because a Fund may invest in a broad range of ETFs, such risks may include, but are not limited to, leverage risk, foreign exposure risk, and commodity-linked investments risk. To the extent a Fund invests in fixed-income ETFs, it will be indirectly exposed to the same risks described under “Fixed-Income Securities Risk.”

Fixed-Income Securities Risk. The Funds, particularly Janus Henderson Balanced Fund, may hold debt and other fixed-income securities to generate income. Typically, the values of fixed-income securities change inversely with prevailing interest rates. Therefore, a fundamental risk of fixed-income securities is interest rate risk, which is the risk that the value of such securities will generally decline as prevailing interest rates rise, which may cause a Fund’s net asset value to likewise decrease. How specific fixed-income securities may react to changes in interest rates will depend on the specific characteristics of each security. For example, while securities with longer maturities and durations tend to produce higher yields, they also tend to be more sensitive to changes in prevailing interest rates and are therefore more volatile than shorter-term securities and are subject to greater market fluctuations as a result of changes in interest rates. However, calculations of maturity and duration may be based on estimates and may not reliably predict a security’s price sensitivity to changes in interest rates. In addition, different interest rate measures (such as short- and long-term interest rates and U.S. and non-U.S. interest rates), or interest

70	Janus Investment Fund

rates on different types of securities or securities of different issuers, may not necessarily change in the same amount or in the same direction. During periods of very low or negative interest rates, a Fund may not be able to maintain positive returns.

Fixed-income securities are also subject to credit risk, which is the risk that the credit strength of an issuer of a fixed-income security will weaken and/or that the issuer will be unable to make timely principal and interest payments and that the security may go into default. In addition, there is prepayment risk, which is the risk that during periods of falling interest rates, certain fixed-income securities with higher interest rates, such as mortgage- and asset-backed securities, may be prepaid by their issuers thereby reducing the amount of interest payments. This may result in a Fund having to reinvest its proceeds in lower yielding securities. Fixed-income securities may also be subject to valuation risk and liquidity risk. Valuation risk is the risk that one or more of the fixed-income securities in which a Fund invests are priced differently than the value realized upon such security’s sale. In times of market instability, valuation may be more difficult. Liquidity risk is the risk that fixed-income securities may be difficult or impossible to sell at the time that a portfolio manager would like or at the price a portfolio manager believes the security is currently worth. To the extent a Fund invests in fixed-income securities in a particular industry or economic sector, its share values may fluctuate in response to events affecting that industry or sector. Securities underlying mortgage- and asset-backed securities, which may include subprime mortgages, also may be subject to a higher degree of credit risk, valuation risk, and liquidity risk. To the extent that a Fund invests in derivatives tied to fixed-income securities, the Fund may be more substantially exposed to these risks than a fund that does not invest in such derivatives.

The market for certain fixed-income securities may become illiquid under adverse market or economic conditions independent of any specific adverse changes in the conditions of a particular issuer. For example, dealer capacity in certain fixed-income markets appears to have undergone fundamental changes since the financial crisis of 2008, which may result in low dealer inventories and a reduction in dealer market-making capacity. A Fund may also be subject to heightened interest rate and liquidity risk because the Federal Reserve has ended its monetary stimulus program known as quantitative easing and interest rates are near historically low levels. The Federal Reserve raised the federal funds rate several times in recent periods and has signaled additional increases in the near future. To the extent the Federal Reserve continues to raise rates, there is a risk that the fixed-income markets will experience increased volatility and that the liquidity of certain Fund investments may be reduced. These developments could cause the Fund’s net asset value to fluctuate or make it more difficult for the Fund to accurately value its securities. These developments or others also could cause a Fund to face increased shareholder redemptions, which may lead to increased portfolio turnover and transaction costs, or could force the Fund to liquidate investments at disadvantageous times or prices, therefore adversely affecting the Fund as well as the value of your investment. The amount of assets deemed illiquid remaining within a Fund may also increase, making it more difficult to meet shareholder redemptions and further adversely affecting the value of the Fund.

Foreign Exposure Risk. Within the parameters of its specific investment policies, each Fund may invest in foreign equity and debt securities either indirectly (e.g., depositary receipts, depositary shares, and passive foreign investment companies) or directly in foreign markets, including emerging markets. With respect to investments in securities of issuers or companies that are economically tied to different countries throughout the world, securities may be deemed to be economically tied to a particular country based on such factors as the issuer’s country of incorporation, primary listing, and other factors including, but not limited to operations, revenues, headquarters, management, and shareholder base. 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.

•

71	Janus Investment Fund

	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.

High-Yield/High-Risk Bond Risk. High-yield/high-risk bonds (also known as “junk” bonds) are bonds rated below investment grade by the primary rating agencies such as Standard & Poor’s, Fitch, and Moody’s or are unrated bonds of similar quality. The value of lower quality bonds generally is more dependent on credit risk than investment grade bonds. Issuers of high-yield/high-risk bonds may not be as strong financially as those issuing bonds with higher credit ratings and are more vulnerable to real or perceived economic changes, political changes, or adverse developments specific to the issuer. In addition, the junk bond market can experience sudden and sharp price swings.

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 the SAI for a description of bond rating categories.

Initial Public Offering Risk. A Fund’s purchase of shares issued in an initial public offering (“IPO”) exposes it to the risks associated with companies that have little operating history as public companies, as well as to the risks inherent in those sectors of the market where these new issuers operate. Attractive IPOs are often oversubscribed and may not be available to the Funds, or may be available only in very limited quantities. The market for IPO issuers has been volatile, and share prices of newly public companies have fluctuated up and down significantly over short periods of time. Although IPO investments may have had a positive impact on certain Funds’ performance in the past, there can be no assurance that the Funds will identify favorable IPO investment opportunities in the future. In addition, under certain market conditions, a relatively small number of companies may issue securities in IPOs. Similarly, as the number of Funds to which IPO securities are allocated increases, the number of securities issued to any one Fund may decrease. In addition, as a Fund increases in size, the impact of IPOs on the Fund’s performance will generally decrease.

72	Janus Investment Fund

Interest Rate Risk. Generally, a fixed-income security will increase in value when prevailing interest rates fall and decrease in value when prevailing interest rates rise. Longer-term securities are generally more sensitive to interest rate changes than shorter-term securities, but they generally offer higher yields to compensate investors for the associated risks. High-yield bond prices and floating rate debt security prices are generally less directly responsive to interest rate changes than investment grade issues or comparable fixed rate securities, and may not always follow this pattern. The Funds may use futures, swaps, options, and other derivatives to manage interest rate risk. The income component of Janus Henderson Balanced Fund’s holdings includes fixed-income securities. The income component of Janus Henderson Growth and Income Fund’s holdings may include fixed-income securities.

Liquidity Risk. A Fund may invest in securities or instruments that do not trade actively or in large volumes, and may make investments that are less liquid than other investments. Also, a Fund may make investments that may become less liquid in response to market developments or adverse investor perceptions. Investments that are illiquid or that trade in lower volumes may be more difficult to value. When there is no willing buyer and investments cannot be readily sold at the desired time or price, a Fund may have to accept a lower price or may not be able to sell the security or instrument at all. Investments in foreign securities, particularly those of issuers located in emerging market countries, tend to have greater exposure to liquidity risk than domestic securities. In unusual market conditions, even normally liquid securities may be affected by a degree of liquidity risk (i.e., if the number and capacity of traditional market participants is reduced). An inability to sell one or more portfolio positions can adversely affect a Fund’s value or prevent such Fund from being able to take advantage of other investment opportunities.

Liquidity risk may also refer to the risk that a Fund will not be able to pay redemption proceeds within the allowable time period because of unusual market conditions, an unusually high volume of redemption requests, or other reasons. While a Fund may pay redemptions in-kind, a Fund may instead choose to raise cash to meet redemption requests through the sale of portfolio 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 net asset value and may increase brokerage costs.

Loan Risk . Janus Henderson Balanced Fund may invest in various commercial loans. The risks of such investments vary, depending on the type of loans underlying the investments, as described below.

•	Bank Loan Risk . The bank loans in which Janus Henderson Balanced Fund invests may be denominated in U.S. or non-U.S. currencies, including the euro. Bank loans are obligations of companies or other entities entered into in connection with recapitalizations, acquisitions, and refinancings. The Fund’s investments in bank loans are generally acquired as a participation interest in, or assignment of, loans originated by a lender or other financial institution. These investments may include institutionally-traded floating and fixed-rate debt securities. The bank loans underlying these securities often involve borrowers with low credit ratings whose financial conditions are troubled or uncertain, including companies that are highly leveraged or in bankruptcy proceedings. Participation interests and assignments involve credit, interest rate, and liquidity risk. Some participation interests and assignments may not be considered “securities,” and purchasers, such as the Fund, therefore may not be entitled to rely on the anti-fraud protections of the federal securities laws. Additionally, because Janus Capital, in the course of investing the Fund’s assets in loans, may have access to material non-public information regarding the borrower, the ability of the Fund to purchase or sell publicly-traded securities of such borrowers may be restricted. In addition, to the extent the Fund invests in non-U.S. bank loan investments, those investments also are subject to the risks of foreign investment, including Eurozone risk.
	If the 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, the 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. There may be a number of intermediate participants in bank loan transactions and loan agreements that have specific rights, obligations, terms, and conditions. As such, any number of factors in an investment in bank loans could cause the Fund to lose income or principal on a particular investment, which in turn could affect the Fund’s returns, and you could lose money.
	Interest rates on floating rate bank loans adjust with interest rate changes and/or issuer credit quality, and unexpected changes in such rates could result in losses to the Fund. Additionally, borrowers may pay back principal in whole or part,

73	Janus Investment Fund

	prior to scheduled due dates. Such prepayment may result in the Fund realizing less income on a particular investment and replacing the floating rate bank loan with a less attractive security, which may provide less return to the Fund.
	Bank loans are generally less liquid than many other fixed-income securities and may be subject to restrictions on resale. Transactions in bank loans may take more than seven days to settle. As a result, the proceeds related to the sale of bank loans may not be available to make additional investments or to meet the Fund’s redemption obligations until a substantial period after the sale of the loans. To the extent that extended settlement creates short-term liquidity needs, the Fund may satisfy these needs by holding additional cash or selling other investments (potentially at an inopportune time, which could result in losses to the Fund).
	The Fund may not be able to identify and invest in attractive floating rate bank loans, such as senior loans, as the market for such investments may be limited in certain economic conditions or because of a high number of potential purchasers of assignments and participations. The Fund may also invest in other floating rate debt securities or other investments. For example, the Fund may invest in junior or subordinated loans or unsecured loans. Such loans may not provide desired returns or may increase the potential for loss of income or principal. Bank loan investments may be generally considered speculative and risks arising from the Fund’s investments in bank loans may be similar to those of investments in “junk” bonds or below investment grade investments. The Fund’s investments in bank loans may be more sensitive to economic changes, political changes, or adverse developments specific to the borrower than higher quality investments.
•	Bridge Loan Risk. Investments in bridge loans subject the Fund to certain risks in addition to those described above. In addition, any delay in obtaining permanent financing subjects the bridge loan investor to increased risk. A borrower’s use of bridge loans also involves the risk that the borrower may be unable to locate permanent financing to replace the bridge loan, which may impair the borrower’s perceived creditworthiness.
•	DIP Loan Risk. Investments in DIP loans are subject to the risk that the entity will not emerge from bankruptcy and will be forced to liquidate its assets. In the event of liquidation, the Fund’s only recourse will be against the property securing the DIP loan.
•	Mezzanine Loan Risk. Mezzanine loans generally are rated below investment grade, and frequently are unrated. Because mezzanine loans typically are the most subordinated debt obligation in an issuer’s capital structure, they are subject to the additional risk that the cash flow of the related borrower and any property securing the loan may be insufficient to repay the loan after the related borrower pays off any senior obligations. Mezzanine loans, which are usually issued in private placement transactions, may be considered illiquid. In addition, they are often used by smaller companies that may be highly leveraged, and in turn may be subject to a higher risk of default. Investment in mezzanine loans is a specialized practice that depends more heavily on independent credit analysis than investments in other fixed-income securities.

Management Risk. The Funds are actively managed investment portfolios and are therefore subject to the risk that the investment strategies employed for the Funds may fail to produce the intended results. A Fund may underperform its benchmark index or other mutual funds with similar investment objectives.

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. If this occurs, a Fund’s share price may also decrease.

The Funds may use short sales, futures, options, swap agreements (including, but not limited to, equity, interest rate, credit default, and total return), and other derivative instruments individually or in combination to “hedge” or protect their portfolios from adverse movements in securities prices and interest rates. The Funds may also use a variety of currency hedging techniques, including the use of forward currency contracts, to manage currency risk. There is no guarantee that a portfolio manager’s and/or investment personnel’s use of derivative investments will benefit the Funds. A Fund’s performance could be worse than if the Fund had not used such instruments. Use of such investments may instead increase risk to the Fund, rather than reduce risk.

A Fund’s performance may also be significantly affected, positively or negatively, by a portfolio manager’s and/or investment personnel’s use of certain types of investments, such as foreign (non-U.S.) securities, non-investment grade bonds (also known as “junk” bonds), initial public offerings, or securities of companies with relatively small market capitalizations. Note that a portfolio manager’s and/or investment personnel’s use of such investments may have a magnified performance impact on a fund with a small asset base and the fund may not experience similar performance as its assets grow.

74	Janus Investment Fund

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 or if the portfolio managers’ and/or investment personnel’s belief about a company’s intrinsic worth is incorrect. 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. As discussed in more detail under “Fixed-Income Securities Risk,” the conclusion of the Federal Reserve Board’s quantitative easing program and subsequent increases of the target range for the federal funds rate could cause the value of a Fund to decrease and result in heightened levels of market volatility as well as interest rate risk and liquidity risk. 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. Market risk may affect a single issuer, industry, economic sector, or the market as a whole.

Mortgage- and Asset-Backed Securities Risk. Rising interest rates tend to extend the duration of, or reduce the rate of prepayments on, both commercial mortgage-backed securities (“CMBS”) and residential mortgage-backed securities (“RMBS”), making them more sensitive to changes in interest rates (“extension risk”). As a result, in a period of rising interest rates, the price of mortgage-backed securities may fall, causing a Fund that holds mortgage-backed securities to exhibit additional volatility. Mortgage-backed securities are also subject to prepayment risk. When interest rates decline, borrowers may pay off their mortgages sooner than expected. This can reduce a Fund’s returns because the Fund will have to reinvest that money at lower prevailing interest rates. Investments in mortgage-backed securities, including those comprised of subprime mortgages, may be subject to a higher degree of credit risk, valuation risk, and liquidity risk than various other types of fixed-income securities. Additionally, although mortgage-backed securities are generally supported by some form of government or private guarantee and/or insurance, there is no assurance that guarantors or insurers will meet their obligations.

CMBS are subject to certain other risks. The market for CMBS developed more recently than that for RMBS and is relatively small in terms of outstanding principal amount of issues compared to the RMBS market. CMBS are also subject to risks associated with a lack of standardized terms, shorter maturities than residential mortgage loans, and payment of all or substantially all of the principal at maturity, rather than regular amortization of principal. Moreover, the type and use of a particular commercial property may add to the risk of CMBS investments. Adverse changes in economic conditions and circumstances are more likely to have an adverse impact on mortgage-backed securities secured by loans on commercial properties than on those secured by residential properties.

Similarly, the value of a Fund’s investments in asset-backed securities may be adversely affected by changes in interest rates, factors concerning the interests in and structure of the issuer or originator of the receivables, the creditworthiness of the entities that provide any supporting letters of credit, surety bonds, or other credit or liquidity enhancements, and/or the market’s assessment of the quality of the underlying assets. 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. A Fund could incur a loss if the underlying loans are not paid. In addition, most asset-backed securities are subject to prepayment risk in a declining interest rate environment. The impact of prepayments on the value of asset-backed securities may be difficult to predict and may result in greater volatility. Rising interest rates tend to extend the duration of asset-backed securities, making them more volatile and sensitive to changing interest rates.

Nondiversification Risk. Janus Henderson Contrarian Fund and Janus Henderson Forty Fund are classified as nondiversified under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and may hold a greater percentage of their assets in a smaller number of issuers. As a result, an increase or decrease in the value of a single security held by a Fund may have a greater impact on the Fund’s net asset value and total return. Being nondiversified may also make a Fund more susceptible to financial, economic, political, or other developments that may impact a security. Although each Fund may satisfy the requirements for a diversified fund, and has from time to time operated as diversified, each Fund’s nondiversified classification gives the Fund’s portfolio manager more flexibility to hold larger positions in a smaller number of securities than a fund that is classified as diversified. A Fund’s policy of concentrating its portfolio in a smaller number of holdings could result in more volatility in the Fund’s performance and share price. Since Janus Henderson Forty Fund normally invests primarily in a core portfolio of 20-40 common stocks, this risk may be increased.

Overweighting in Certain Market Sectors Risk. The percentage of a Fund’s assets invested in various industries and sectors will vary from time to time depending on the portfolio managers’ perception of investment opportunities. Investments in particular industries or sectors may be more volatile than the overall stock market. Consequently, a higher percentage of holdings in a particular industry or sector may have the potential for a greater impact on the Fund’s net asset value.

75	Janus Investment Fund

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.

Rule 144A Securities Risk. Certain Funds may invest in Rule 144A securities that are not registered for sale to the general public under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, but which may be resold to certain institutional investors. Such securities may be determined to be liquid in accordance with guidelines established by the Funds’ Trustees. However, an insufficient number of qualified institutional buyers interested in purchasing Rule 144A securities at a particular time could affect negatively a Fund’s ability to dispose of such securities promptly or at expected prices. As such, even if determined to be liquid, a Fund’s investment in Rule 144A securities may subject the Fund to enhanced liquidity risk and potentially increase the Fund’s exposure to illiquid investments if eligible buyers become uninterested in buying Rule 144A securities at a particular time.

Small- and Mid-Sized Companies Risk. A Fund’s investments in securities issued by small- and mid-sized companies, which can include smaller, start-up companies offering emerging products or services, may involve greater risks than are customarily associated with larger, more established companies. For example, while small- and mid-sized companies may realize more substantial growth than larger or more established issuers, they may also suffer more significant losses as a result of their narrow product lines, limited operating history, greater exposure to competitive threats, limited financial resources, limited trading markets, and the potential lack of management depth. Securities issued by small- and mid-sized companies tend to be more volatile and somewhat more speculative than securities issued by larger or more established companies and may underperform as compared to the securities of larger or more established companies. These holdings are also subject to wider price fluctuations and tend to be less liquid than stocks of larger or more established companies, which could have a significant adverse effect on a Fund’s returns, especially as market conditions change.

76	Janus Investment Fund

economic performance, or repay principal or interest when due may result in the cancellation of third party commitments to lend funds to the sovereign debtor, which may further impair such debtor’s ability or willingness to timely service its debts. A Fund may be requested to participate in the rescheduling of such sovereign debt and to extend further loans to governmental entities, which may adversely affect the Fund’s holdings. In the event of default, there may be limited or no legal remedies for collecting sovereign debt and there may be no bankruptcy proceedings through which the Fund may collect all or part of the sovereign debt that a governmental entity has not repaid. In addition, to the extent a Fund invests in non-U.S. sovereign debt, it may be subject to currency risk.

TBA Commitments Risk. A Fund may enter into “to be announced” or “TBA” commitments. Although the particular TBA securities must meet industry-accepted “good delivery” standards, there can be no assurance that a security purchased on a forward commitment basis will ultimately be issued or delivered by the counterparty. During the settlement period, a Fund will still bear the risk of any decline in the value of the security to be delivered. Because TBA commitments do not require the purchase and sale of identical securities, the characteristics of the security delivered to the Fund may be less favorable than the security delivered to the dealer. If the counterparty to a transaction fails to deliver the securities, the Fund could suffer a loss.

Warrants and Rights Risk. The price, performance and liquidity of warrants and rights to purchase equity securities are typically linked to the underlying stock. These instruments have many characteristics of convertible securities and, similarly, will react to variations in the general market for equity securities. Rights are similar to warrants, but normally have a short duration and are distributed directly by the issuer to its shareholders. Rights and warrants have no voting rights, receive no dividends and have no rights with respect to the assets of the issuer.

Management of the Funds

Investment adviser

Janus Capital (together with its predecessors and affiliates) has served as investment adviser to Janus Henderson mutual funds since 1970 and currently serves as investment adviser to all of the Janus Henderson 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”). 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, as appropriate, 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). To the extent that a Fund’s assets are allocated to one or more subadvisers, Janus Capital, subject to oversight 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 a subadviser for a Fund. In the event that Janus Capital hires a new subadviser pursuant to the manager-of-managers structure, the affected Janus Henderson fund would provide shareholders with information about the new subadviser and subadvisory agreement within 90 days.

Shareholders of each Fund, with the exception of Janus Henderson Balanced Fund, Janus Henderson Contrarian Fund, Janus Henderson Enterprise Fund, and Janus Henderson Triton Fund, have approved the use of a manager-of-managers structure.

Janus Capital furnishes certain administration, compliance, and accounting services to the Funds, including providing office space for the Funds and providing personnel to serve as officers to the Funds. The Funds reimburse Janus Capital for certain of its costs in providing these services (to the extent Janus Capital seeks reimbursement and such costs are not otherwise waived). These costs include some or all of the salaries, fees, and expenses of Janus Capital employees and Fund officers, including the Funds’ Chief Compliance Officer and compliance staff, that provide specified administration and compliance services to the Funds. The 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.

Management expenses

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 Geneva a subadvisory fee from its investment advisory fee for managing Janus Henderson U.S. Growth Opportunities Fund.

The following tables reflect each Fund’s contractual investment advisory fee rate or base fee rate, as applicable (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, if applicable).

Fixed-Rate Investment Advisory Fee

The Funds reflected below pay an investment advisory fee at 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 a 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 September 30, 2017)

(1)

Janus Capital has agreed to waive its investment advisory fee and/or reimburse operating expenses to the extent that each Fund’s total annual fund operating expenses (excluding the fees payable pursuant to a Rule 12b-1 plan, shareholder servicing fees, such as transfer agency fees (including out-of-pocket costs), administrative services fees and any networking/omnibus/administrative fees payable by any share class, brokerage commissions, interest, dividends, taxes, acquired fund fees and expenses, and extraordinary expenses) exceed certain levels until at least February 1, 2019. Application of an expense waiver and its 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 period ended September 30, 2017, 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.

Performance-Based Investment Advisory Fee

As reflected in the table below, Janus Henderson Contrarian Fund, Janus Henderson Research Fund, and Janus Henderson Forty Fund each pay an investment advisory fee rate that may adjust up or down based on each Fund’s performance relative to the cumulative investment record of its benchmark index over a rolling 36-month performance measurement period. The second column in the table below shows each Fund’s base fee rate. The third column shows the full performance rate for outperformance or underperformance during the measurement period relative to each Fund’s respective benchmark index. The fourth column shows the performance adjusted investment advisory fee rate, which is equal to each Fund’s base fee rate plus or minus the performance adjustment over the period without any fee waivers. The fifth column shows the actual investment advisory fee rate, which is equal to each Fund’s base fee rate plus or minus the performance adjustment over the period and includes any applicable fee waiver. This fifth column shows the actual amount of the investment advisory fee rate paid by each Fund as of the end of the fiscal year.

As an example, if a Fund outperformed its benchmark index over the performance measurement period by its full performance rate (listed in the table below), the advisory fee would increase by 0.15% (assuming constant assets). Conversely, if a Fund underperformed its benchmark index over the performance measurement period by its full performance rate (listed in the table below), the advisory fee would decrease by 0.15% (assuming constant assets). Actual performance within the full range of the full performance rate may result in positive or negative incremental adjustments to the advisory fee of greater or less than 0.15%. Additional details discussing the performance fee are included below with further description in the SAI.

Fund Name	Base Fee Rate (%)	Full Performance Rate vs. Benchmark Index	Performance Adjusted Investment Advisory Fee Rate (%)	Actual Investment Advisory Fee Rate ⁽¹⁾ (%) (for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2017)

fees, such as transfer agency fees (including out-of-pocket costs), administrative services fees and any networking/omnibus/administrative fees payable by any share class, brokerage commissions, interest, dividends, taxes, acquired fund fees and expenses, and extraordinary expenses) exceed certain levels until at least February 1, 2019. Application of an expense waiver and its 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 and any applicable performance adjustments are not reflected in the base fee rates shown.

(2)

Effective May 1, 2017, Janus Fund merged with and into Janus Research Fund. Following the merger, Janus Research Fund was renamed Janus Henderson Research Fund. For two years after the merger, Janus Capital has agreed to waive its investment advisory fee by calculating the performance adjustment using the lesser of Janus Henderson Research Fund’s 36-month historical performance or a blended historical performance comprised of Janus Fund’s performance for periods prior to the merger and Janus Henderson Research Fund’s performance for periods after the merger.

(3)

Effective May 1, 2017, Janus Twenty Fund merged with and into Janus Forty Fund. Following the merger, Janus Forty Fund was renamed Janus Henderson Forty Fund. For two years after the merger, Janus Capital has agreed to waive its investment advisory fee by calculating the performance adjustment using the lesser of Janus Henderson Forty Fund’s 36-month historical performance or a blended historical performance comprised of Janus Twenty Fund’s performance for periods prior to the merger and Janus Henderson Forty Fund’s performance for periods after the merger.

For Janus Henderson Contrarian Fund, Janus Henderson Research Fund, and Janus Henderson Forty Fund, the investment advisory fee rate is determined by calculating a base fee (shown in the previous table) and applying a performance adjustment (described in further detail below). The performance adjustment either increases or decreases the base fee depending on how well each Fund has performed relative to its benchmark index as shown below:

Fund Name	Benchmark Index
Janus Henderson Contrarian Fund	S&P 500 ^® Index
Janus Henderson Research Fund	Russell 1000 ^® Growth Index
Janus Henderson Forty Fund	Russell 1000 ^® Growth 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 each Fund in the table above 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 is made until a Fund’s performance-based fee structure has been in effect for at least 12 months.

No Performance Adjustment is applied unless the difference between a 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 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 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. 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 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.

80	Janus Investment Fund

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 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, 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 each Fund relative to the record of the Fund’s benchmark index and future changes to the size of each Fund.

A discussion regarding the basis for the Trustees’ approval of the Funds’ investment advisory agreements and subadvisory agreement (as applicable) is included in each Fund’s annual report (for the period ending September 30) or semiannual report (for the period ending March 31) 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 Henderson representative at 1-877-335-2687. The reports are also available, free of charge, at janushenderson.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, including the investment advisory fee, but excluding any performance adjustments to management fees, the fees payable pursuant to a Rule 12b-1 plan, shareholder servicing fees, such as transfer agency fees (including out-of-pocket costs), administrative services fees and any networking/omnibus/administrative fees payable by any share class, 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 February 1, 2019.

Fund Name	Expense Limit Percentage (%)
Janus Henderson Balanced Fund	0.68
Janus Henderson Contrarian Fund ⁽¹⁾	0.83
Janus Henderson Enterprise Fund	0.87
Janus Henderson Forty Fund ⁽¹⁾	0.77
Janus Henderson Growth and Income Fund	0.67
Janus Henderson Research Fund ⁽¹⁾	0.75
Janus Henderson Triton Fund	0.92
Janus Henderson U.S. Growth Opportunities Fund	0.80
Janus Henderson Venture Fund	0.92

(1)

The Fund pays an investment advisory fee rate that may adjust up or down based on the Fund’s performance relative to its benchmark index during a measurement period. 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.

Conflicts of Interest

Janus Capital and Geneva 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 Henderson 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

84	Janus Investment Fund

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 Capital “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 Capital “funds of funds” and the Janus Henderson funds, it is subject to certain potential conflicts of interest when allocating the assets of a Janus Capital “fund of funds” among such Janus Henderson funds. To the extent that a Fund is an underlying fund in a Janus Capital “fund of funds,” a potential conflict of interest arises when allocating the assets of the Janus Capital “fund of funds” to that Fund. Purchases and redemptions of fund shares by a Janus Capital “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. In addition, redemptions by a Janus Capital “fund of funds” could cause actual expenses to increase, or could result in a Fund’s current expenses being allocated over a smaller asset base, which may lead to an increase in the Fund’s expense ratio. The impact of these transactions is likely to be greater when a Janus Capital “fund of funds” purchases, redeems, or owns a substantial portion of a Fund’s shares. 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.

Other information

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. Each of Janus Henderson Enterprise Fund, Janus Henderson Triton Fund, and Janus Henderson Venture Fund has limited sales of its Shares. Additional information regarding general policies and exceptions can be found under Closed Fund Policies in the “Shareholder’s Guide” section of this Prospectus and in the “Shares of the Trust” section of the SAI.

LIQUIDATION/REORGANIZATION OF A FUND

DISTRIBUTION OF THE FUNDS

The Funds are distributed by Janus Distributors LLC dba Janus Henderson Distributors (“Janus Henderson 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.

Distributions and taxes

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 Janus Henderson Balanced Fund and Janus Henderson Growth and Income Fund are normally declared and distributed in March, June, September, and December. 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 federal income 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 Henderson representative (1-800-333-1181) if you hold Class I Shares or Class N Shares directly with Janus Capital. 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

87	Janus Investment Fund

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 59 ¹ ⁄ 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 from net investment income and, after December 31, 2018, payments of gross proceeds from sales of Fund shares and distributions of net capital gains made after December 31, 2018. Shareholders should consult their individual tax advisers regarding the possible implications of this legislation.

For Shares purchased on or after January 1, 2012 and sold thereafter from a taxable account, your intermediary (or the Fund, if you hold Class I Shares or Class N Shares directly with Janus Capital) will report cost basis information to you and to the IRS. 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 or Class N Shares directly with Janus Capital 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 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 a Fund makes such election, foreign taxes paid by the Fund will be reported to shareholders as income and shareholders may claim a tax credit or deduction for such taxes, subject to certain limitations. 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.

88	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 substantially 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.

89	Janus Investment Fund

Shareholder’s guide

With certain exceptions, the Funds are generally available only to shareholders residing in the United States and employees of Janus Capital 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 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 or on behalf of shareholders. Class A Shares may be offered without an initial sales charge to certain classes of investors such as purchases through certain retirement platforms, or fee-based platforms. See “Qualifying for a Waiver or Reduction of Class A Shares Sales Charge” in this Shareholders Guide for additional details.

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 shareholders.

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 or on behalf of shareholders. Class I Shares are also available to certain direct institutional investors including, but not limited to, corporations, certain retirement plans, public pension plans and foundations/endowments, who established Class I Share accounts before August 4, 2017.

Class N Shares are generally available only to financial intermediaries purchasing on behalf of: 1) certain adviser-assisted, employer-sponsored retirement plans, including 401(k) plans, 457 plans, 403(b) plans, Taft-Hartley multi-employer plans, profit-sharing and money purchase pension plans, defined benefit plans, and certain welfare benefit plans, such as health savings accounts, and nonqualified deferred compensation plans; and 2) retail investors purchasing in qualified or nonqualified accounts, whose accounts are held through an omnibus account at their financial intermediary, and where the financial intermediary requires no payment or reimbursement from the Funds, Janus Capital or its affiliates. Class N Shares also are available to Janus Henderson proprietary products. Class N Shares also are available to certain direct institutional investors approved by Janus Henderson Distributors including, but not limited to, corporations, certain retirement plans, public plans, and foundations and endowments, subject to minimum investment requirements.

Class R Shares are offered through financial intermediary platforms including, but not limited to, retirement platforms. Class R Shares pay up to 0.50% of net assets to financial intermediaries for the provision of distribution services and, to a certain extent, 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 the plan or plan participants.

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 or on behalf of shareholders.

90	Janus Investment Fund

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 or Class N Shares held directly with Janus Capital, please contact a Janus Henderson 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. 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 time at which a Fund’s NAV is calculated may be changed if trading on the NYSE is restricted, the NYSE closes at a different time, 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 calculated 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. For Class N Shares, although purchases and redemptions are made at the net asset value calculated after your order is received, you may be charged a commission by your broker or other financial institution. The nature and amount of the commission and the times at which it may be collected are determined by your broker. 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 an approved 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 may be 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 an independent pricing service 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.

91	Janus Investment Fund

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.

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.

Choosing a share class

Class A Shares, Class C Shares, Class S Shares, Class I Shares, Class N Shares, Class R 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:

•	how much you plan to invest;
•	how long you expect to own the 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 Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, for Class A Shares, Class S Shares, and Class R Shares (each a “Plan”) and Class C Shares (the “Class C Plan”), each Fund pays Janus Henderson 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 Funds
Class A Shares	0.25%
Class C Shares	1.00% ⁽¹⁾
Class S Shares	0.25%
Class R Shares	0.50%

(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 Henderson 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 Henderson 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 Henderson Distributors may, pursuant to a written agreement between Janus Henderson 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 Henderson 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.

94	Janus Investment Fund

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 Capital. 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.

Class S Shares, Class R 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, Class R 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 Capital. 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.

For all share classes, Janus Services also seeks reimbursement for costs it incurs as transfer agent and for providing servicing.

Payments to financial intermediaries by Janus Capital or its affiliates

From their own assets, Janus Capital or its affiliates pay selected brokerage firms or other financial intermediaries that sell certain classes of Shares of the Janus Henderson 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 Henderson 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 Henderson funds. Janus Capital and its affiliates consider a number of factors in making payments to financial intermediaries, including, but not limited to, the share class or share classes selected by the financial intermediary for a particular channel, platform or investor type, whether such class is open to new investors on a particular platform or channel, 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 the top

95	Janus Investment Fund

100 distributors (measured by sales or expected sales of shares of the Janus Henderson 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 Henderson 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 the NSCC or other means) in connection with investments in the Janus Henderson funds. These fees are in addition to any fees that may be paid by the Janus Henderson funds for these types of services or other services.

Janus Capital or its affiliates periodically share certain marketing expenses with selected 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 make payments to participate in selected 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 Henderson 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 Henderson funds to enable the intermediaries and their salespersons to make suitable recommendations, provide useful services, and maintain the necessary infrastructure to make the Janus Henderson 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 Henderson funds’ shares over sales of other mutual funds (or non-mutual fund investments) or to favor sales of one class of Janus Henderson funds’ shares over sales of another Janus Henderson 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 Henderson 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 Henderson 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 Henderson 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 Henderson 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 Henderson 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.

Purchases

With certain 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 and Class N 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 eligibility discussion at the beginning of this “Shareholder’s Guide” section. Contact your financial intermediary, a Janus Henderson representative (1-800-333-1181) if you hold Class I Shares or Class N Shares directly with Janus Capital, 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

96	Janus Investment Fund

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 (or Janus Capital, if you hold Class I Shares or Class N Shares directly with a Fund) 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. For investors other than individuals: When you open an account, you will be asked for the name of the entity, its principal place of business, and taxpayer identification number, and you may be requested to provide information on persons with authority or control over the account, such as name, permanent street address, date of birth, and Social Security number. Until verification of your identity is made, your financial intermediary (or Janus Capital, if you hold Class I Shares or Class N Shares directly with a Fund) may temporarily limit additional share purchases. In addition, your financial intermediary (or Janus Capital, if you hold Class I Shares or Class N Shares directly with a Fund) may close an account if it is unable to verify a shareholder’s identity. Please contact your financial intermediary (or a Janus Henderson representative, if you hold Class I Shares or Class N Shares directly with a Fund) 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 Capital’s 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 (including, but not limited to, corporations, certain retirement plans, public pension plans and foundations/endowments) who established Class I Share accounts before August 4, 2017 and investing directly with Janus Capital. 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 Henderson Group plc (“JHG”) 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 Henderson 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 Henderson representative, as applicable.

97	Janus Investment Fund

Class N Shares

For retail investors whose accounts are held through an omnibus account at their financial intermediary, the minimum investment is $2,500 per Fund account. Investors in certain tax-deferred accounts or accounts held through certain wrap programs may not be subject to this minimum. For institutional investors investing directly with a Fund, the minimum investment is $1 million per Fund account. There is no investment minimum for adviser-assisted, employer-sponsored retirement plans. For additional information, contact your intermediary, plan sponsor, administrator, or a Janus Henderson representative, as applicable.

Class R Shares

Investors in a defined contribution plan through a third party administrator should refer to their plan document or contact their plan administrator for information regarding account minimums. For all other account types, the minimum investment is $2,500.

Class A Shares, Class C Shares, Class S Shares, Class I Shares, Class N 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 or Class N 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 Janus Capital, if you hold Class I Shares or Class N 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 Henderson 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 Henderson 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.

98	Janus Investment Fund

For purchases of Class A Shares of $1,000,000 or greater, from its own assets, Janus Henderson Distributors generally pays financial intermediaries commissions as follows:

•	1.00% on amounts of $1,000,000 but under $4,000,000;
•	0.50% on amounts of $4,000,000 but under $10,000,000;
•	0.25% on amounts of $10,000,000 and above.

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 Waiver or Reduction of Class A Shares Sales Charge

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 Henderson Distributors to sell Class A Shares; (ii) directors, officers, and employees of JHG 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 by the following persons: (i) investors purchasing Class A Shares through financial intermediaries on behalf of certain adviser-assisted, employer-sponsored retirement plans, including defined contribution plans, defined benefit plans and other welfare benefit plans such as health savings accounts and voluntary employees’ beneficiary association trust accounts; and (ii) investors purchasing Class A Shares through fee-based broker-dealers or financial advisors, primarily on their advisory account platform(s) where such broker-dealer or financial advisor imposes additional fees for services connected to the advisory account. To facilitate the waiver of a sales charge, Janus Henderson Distributors requires an agreement with the financial intermediary submitting trades on behalf of eligible investors.

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 Henderson funds) with your current purchase of Class A Shares of the Funds and certain other Janus Henderson 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.

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 Henderson 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. Investments made prior to the signing date are not aggregated with, and are not eligible to be included toward, the investment goal.

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. Capital appreciation, capital gains, and reinvested dividends earned during the Letter of Intent period do not apply toward its completion. Each investment

99	Janus Investment Fund

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 janushenderson.com/breakpoints, and by following the appropriate hyperlinks to the specific information.

Commission on Class C Shares

Janus Henderson 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.

Intermediaries may have different policies and procedures regarding the availability of front-end sales load waivers or contingent deferred (back-end) sales load (“CDSC”) waivers. In all instances, it is the shareholder’s responsibility to notify a Fund, or the shareholder’s financial intermediary at the time of purchase, of any relationship or other facts qualifying the shareholder for sales charge waivers or discounts. Certain sales charge waivers and/or discounts are described in Appendix A – Intermediary Sales Charge Waivers and Discounts. These sales charge waivers and/or discounts are available only if you purchase your shares through the designated intermediaries. For waivers and discounts not available through a particular intermediary, shareholders will have to purchase Fund shares through another intermediary to receive these waivers or discounts.

Exchanges

With certain 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 Henderson representative (1-800-333-1181) if you hold Class I Shares or Class N 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, with the exception of the Janus Henderson money market funds. Only accounts beneficially owned by natural persons will be allowed to exchange to Janus Henderson Money Market Fund; all other account types can only exchange to Janus Henderson Government Money Market Fund.

•

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 generally 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

100	Janus Investment Fund

	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.
•	The exchange privilege is not intended as a vehicle for short-term or excessive trading. A Fund may suspend or terminate the exchange privilege of any investor who is identified as having a pattern of short-term trading. 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. In addition, Class A Shares received through an exchange of Class C Shares due to an intermediary-driven conversion or a conversion from a fee-based account to a brokerage account, will not be subject to an initial sales charge. 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 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 or Class N Shares. Please contact your financial intermediary, a Janus Henderson representative (1-800-333-1181) if you hold Class I Shares or Class N 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 within three business days following receipt of the redemption order. The Funds typically expect to meet redemption requests by paying out proceeds from cash or cash equivalent portfolio holdings, or by selling portfolio holdings. In stressed market conditions, and other appropriate circumstances, redemption methods may include borrowing funds or redeeming in-kind.

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.

101	Janus Investment Fund

Large Shareholder Redemptions

Certain large shareholders, such as other funds, institutional investors, financial intermediaries, individuals, accounts, and Janus Capital 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, which could lead to an increase in the Fund’s expense ratio.

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, and may potentially include illiquid securities. Illiquid securities may not be able to be sold quickly or at a price that reflects full value, or there may not be a market for such securities, which could cause the redeeming shareholder to realize losses on the security if the security is sold at a price lower than that at which it had been valued. If a Fund makes an in-kind payment, 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. Redemptions in-kind are taxable for federal income tax purposes in the same manner as redemptions for cash and subsequent sale of securities received in-kind may result in taxable gains for federal income tax purposes.

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 and accelerate the recognition of taxable income.

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, however, 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, Class R Shares, and Class T Shares

You may arrange for periodic redemptions by authorizing your financial intermediary (or Janus Capital, if you hold Class I Shares or Class N 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 Henderson 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.

102	Janus Investment Fund

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 where no sales charge or commission was paid on the purchase of such shares;
•	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.

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.

CLOSED FUND POLICIES – JANUS HENDERSON ENTERPRISE 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 unless you meet one of the specified criteria. 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 JHG and any of its subsidiaries covered under the JHG 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 Henderson funds, and as such, employees of Janus Capital and its affiliates may open new accounts in the closed Fund; Trustees of the Janus Henderson funds and directors of JHG may also open new accounts in the closed Fund; (vi) Janus Capital “fund of funds,” which is a fund that primarily invests in other Janus Henderson mutual funds, may invest in the Fund; (vii) certain non-Janus Capital “fund of funds” that have an agreement with Janus Capital; (viii) sponsors of certain wrap programs, including RIAs for fee-based business, may continue to invest in the Fund on behalf of existing shareholders and new investors; and (ix) in the case of certain mergers or reorganizations, retirement plans may be able to add the closed Fund as an investment option. Such mergers, reorganizations, acquisitions, or other business combinations 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. In addition, new accounts were permitted in the Fund for certain plans and programs offered in connection with employer-sponsored retirement plans where the retirement plan offered the Fund prior to its closure, or

103	Janus Investment Fund

where the 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.

CLOSED FUND POLICIES – JANUS HENDERSON TRITON FUND

The Fund has limited sales of its shares at this time because Janus Capital and the Trustees believe continued unlimited 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 unless you meet one of the specified criteria. The Fund may resume unlimited 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) employer-sponsored retirement plans that are offered through existing retirement platforms, as well as employees of JHG and any of its subsidiaries covered under the JHG retirement plan; (v) Janus Capital encourages its employees to own shares of the Janus Henderson funds, and as such, employees of Janus Capital and its affiliates may open new accounts in the closed Fund; Trustees of the Janus Henderson funds and directors of JHG may also open new accounts in the closed Fund; (vi) Janus Capital “fund of funds,” which is a fund that primarily invests in other Janus Henderson mutual funds, may invest in the Fund; (vii) certain non-Janus Capital “fund of funds” that have an agreement with Janus Capital; (viii) sponsors of wrap or model allocation programs, including RIAs, with existing accounts in the Fund would be able to continue to invest in the Fund on behalf of existing shareholders; and (ix) in the case of certain mergers or reorganizations, retirement plans may be able to add the closed Fund as an investment, 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 combinations 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 the case of fund mergers, existing shareholders of predecessor funds may be treated as existing shareholders of a surviving closed Fund in applying closed fund policies. In addition, new accounts may be permitted in the Fund where Janus Capital committed in writing prior to the Fund’s closing to make the Fund available for certain institutional investors. 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.

Excessive trading

Excessive and Short-Term 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 Funds are intended for long-term investment purposes, 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 and procedures may be cancelled or rescinded 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 Henderson 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 Janus Henderson 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”.

The Funds monitor for patterns of shareholder short-term trading and may suspend or permanently terminate the purchase and exchange privilege of any investor who is identified as having a pattern of short-term trading. The Funds at all times reserve the right to reject any purchase or exchange request and to modify or terminate the purchase and exchange privileges for any investor for any reason without prior notice, 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 portfolio managers and/or 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.

105	Janus Investment Fund

The Funds’ Trustees may approve from time to time a redemption fee to be imposed by any Janus Henderson 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.

Generally, the Funds’ excessive trading policies and procedures 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 Henderson funds by a Janus Capital “fund of funds,” which is a fund that primarily invests in other Janus Henderson mutual funds; (iii) periodic rebalancing and identifiable transactions by certain funds of funds and asset allocation programs to realign portfolio investments with existing target allocations; and (iv) systematic purchase, exchange, or redemption programs.

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 shares held by a Fund.

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 Henderson 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 Henderson representative at 1-877-335-2687 (toll free). Portfolio holdings consisting of at least the names of the holdings are generally available on a monthly basis with a 30-day lag. Holdings are generally posted approximately two business days thereafter under Full Holdings for each Fund at janushenderson.com/info.
•	Top Holdings. Each Fund’s 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.
•	Other Information. Each Fund may occasionally provide security breakdowns (e.g., industry, sector, regional, market capitalization, and asset allocation), top performance contributors/detractors, 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. Top performance contributors/detractors may include the percentage of contribution/detraction to Fund performance. For Janus Henderson Balanced Fund, top/bottom fixed-income issuers ranked by performance attribution, including the percentage of attribution to Fund performance, average Fund weighting, and other relevant data points, may be provided 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 Henderson 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. 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 Henderson 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.

Shareholder communications

Statements and Reports

Your financial intermediary or plan sponsor (or Janus Capital, if you hold Class I Shares or Class N 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 Capital, if you hold Class I Shares or Class N 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 Capital) to obtain these reports. The Funds’ fiscal year ends September 30. Janus Henderson U.S. Growth Opportunities Fund has changed its fiscal year end to September 30 in order to align its fiscal year end and reporting cycle with that of other funds in the fund complex. In order to implement this change, the Fund operated in a two-month stub period from August 1, 2017 to September 30, 2017 and then began a new fiscal year on October 1, 2017.

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 Capital, if you hold Class I Shares or Class N 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

107	Janus Investment Fund

(or Janus Capital) is unable to locate the shareholder, then the financial intermediary or plan sponsor (or Janus Capital) 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.

Financial highlights

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 information for the Predecessor Funds for the fiscal years ended on or prior to July 31, 2016 has been audited by the auditor to such Funds.

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).

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.

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 a measurement of price sensitivity to interest rate changes. 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. Securities with longer durations tend to be more sensitive to changes in interest rates, and are usually more volatile than securities with shorter duration. For example, the price of a bond portfolio with an average

171	Janus Investment Fund

duration of five years would be expected to fall approximately 5% if interest rates rose by one percentage point. A Fund with a longer portfolio duration is more likely to experience a decrease in its share price as interest rates rise.

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.

172	Janus Investment Fund

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.

“To be announced” or “TBA” commitments are forward agreements for the purchase or sale of securities, including mortgage-backed securities, for a fixed price, with payment and delivery on an agreed upon future settlement date. The specific securities to be delivered are not identified at the trade date. However, delivered securities must meet specified terms, including issuer, rate, and mortgage terms.

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 structured 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 structured 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. To the extent a Fund engages in futures contracts on foreign exchanges, such exchanges may not provide the same protection as U.S. 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.

Inflation-linked swaps involve the exchange by a Fund with another party of their respective commitments to pay or receive interest (e.g., an exchange of fixed rate payments for floating rate payments or an exchange of floating rate payments based on two different reference indices). By design, one of the reference indices is an inflation index, such as the Consumer Price Index.

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.

174	Janus Investment Fund

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. A fixed-income total return swap may be written on many different kinds of underlying reference assets, and may include different indices for various kinds of debt securities (e.g., U.S. investment grade bonds, high-yield bonds, or emerging market bonds).

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 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 is investment exposure which exceeds the initial amount invested. 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

175	Janus Investment Fund

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.

Class D Shares*

* Class D Shares are closed to certain new investors.

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE

Janus Henderson Balanced Fund seeks long-term capital growth, consistent with preservation of capital and balanced by current income.

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.

ANNUAL FUND OPERATING EXPENSES (expenses that you pay each year as a percentage of the value of your investment)	Class D
Management Fees	0.55%
Other Expenses	0.17%
Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses	0.72%

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, reinvest all dividends and distributions, and then redeem all of your Shares at the end of each period. 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:

	1 Year	3 Years	5 Years	10 Years
Class D Shares	$ 74	$ 230	$ 401	$ 894

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT RISKS

3	Janus Henderson Balanced Fund

TBA Commitments Risk . The Fund may enter into “to be announced” or “TBA” commitments. Although the particular TBA securities must meet industry-accepted “good delivery” standards, there can be no assurance that a security purchased on a forward commitment basis will ultimately be issued or delivered by the counterparty. During the settlement period, the Fund will still bear the risk of any decline in the value of the security to be delivered. Because TBA commitments do not require the purchase and sale of identical securities, the characteristics of the security delivered to the Fund may be less favorable than the security delivered to the dealer. If the counterparty to a transaction fails to deliver the securities, the Fund could suffer a loss.

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 D Shares of the Fund commenced operations on February 16, 2010, as a result of the restructuring of Class J Shares, the predecessor share class. The performance shown for Class D Shares 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. If Class D Shares of the Fund had been available during periods prior to February 16, 2010, the performance shown may have been different. The performance shown for periods following the Fund’s commencement of Class D Shares reflects the fees and expenses of Class D Shares, 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 table compares the Fund’s average annual returns for the periods indicated to broad-based securities market indices. 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.

Annual Total Returns for Class D Shares (calendar year-end)

•	The S&P 500 ^® Index is a commonly recognized, market-capitalization weighted index of 500 widely held equity securities, designed to measure broad U.S. equity performance.
•	The Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index is made up of the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Government/Corporate Bond Index, Mortgage-Backed Securities Index, and Asset-Backed Securities Index, including securities that are of investment grade quality or better, have at least one year to maturity, and have an outstanding par value of at least $100 million.
•	The Balanced Index is an internally-calculated, hypothetical combination of unmanaged indices that combines total returns from the S&P 500 ^® Index (55%) and the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index (45%).

After-tax returns are calculated using distributions for the Fund’s Class D Shares for the periods following February 16, 2010; and for the Fund’s Class J Shares, the predecessor share class, for the periods prior to February 16, 2010. If Class D Shares of the Fund had been available during these earlier periods, distributions may have been different and thus, after-tax returns may have been different from those shown. 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 table. 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.

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES

The Fund pursues its investment objective by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) in equity securities with the potential for long-term growth of capital. The portfolio manager seeks to invest in companies where the stock price trades at a significant discount to the portfolio manager’s estimate of fair value and whose intrinsic value the portfolio manager believes will grow over time. The Fund may invest in companies of any size, from larger, well-established companies to smaller, emerging growth companies. The Fund may also invest in foreign securities, which may include investments in emerging markets.

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

8	Janus Henderson Contrarian Fund

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 or if the portfolio manager’s belief about a company’s intrinsic worth is incorrect. 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. Market risk may affect a single issuer, industry, economic sector, or the market as a whole.

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.

ANNUAL FUND OPERATING EXPENSES (expenses that you pay each year as a percentage of the value of your investment)		Class D
Management Fees (may adjust up or down)		0.53%
Other Expenses		0.29%
Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses ⁽¹⁾		0.82%
Fee Waiver ⁽¹⁾		0.03%
Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses After Fee Waiver ⁽¹⁾		0.79%

(1)

Janus Capital has contractually agreed to waive its investment advisory fee and/or reimburse operating expenses to the extent that the Fund’s total annual fund operating expenses (excluding any performance adjustments to management fees, administrative services fees (including out-of-pocket costs), brokerage commissions, interest, dividends, taxes, acquired fund fees and expenses, and extraordinary expenses) exceed 0.77% until at least February 1, 2019. The contractual waiver may be terminated or modified prior to this date only at the discretion of the Board of Trustees.

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, reinvest all dividends and distributions, and then redeem all of your Shares at the end of each period. The Example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund’s operating expenses without waivers remain the same. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

	1 Year	3 Years	5 Years	10 Years
Class D Shares	$ 84	$ 262	$ 455	$ 1,014

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES

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

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 D Shares of the Fund commenced operations on January 27, 2017. The performance shown for Class D Shares reflects the performance of the Fund’s Class S Shares from July 6, 2009 to January 27, 2017, calculated using the fees and expenses of Class S Shares, net of any applicable fee and expense limitations or waivers. The

18	Janus Henderson Forty Fund

performance shown for Class D Shares reflects the performance of Janus Adviser Forty Fund’s (the “JAD predecessor fund”) Class S Shares (formerly named Class I Shares) from August 1, 2000 to July 6, 2009 (prior to the reorganization), 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. For the periods prior to August 1, 2000, the performance shown for Class D Shares reflects the historical performance of the Retirement Shares of Janus Aspen Series – Forty Portfolio (as a result of a separate prior reorganization of those Retirement Shares into the JAD predecessor fund). The performance shown for certain periods prior to August 1, 2000 was calculated using the fees and expenses of Class S Shares of the JAD predecessor fund, without the effect of any fee and expense limitations or waivers.

If Class D Shares of the Fund had been available during periods prior to January 27, 2017, the performance shown may have been different. The performance shown for periods following the Fund’s commencement of Class D Shares reflects the fees and expenses of Class D Shares, net of any applicable fee and expense limitations or waivers.

S&P 500 ^® Index (reflects no deduction for expenses, fees, or taxes)	21.83%	15.79%	8.50%	8.03%

•	The Russell 1000 ^® Growth Index measures the performance of those Russell 1000 ^® companies with higher price-to-book ratios and higher forecasted growth values.
•	The S&P 500 ^® Index is a commonly recognized, market-capitalization weighted index of 500 widely held equity securities, designed to measure broad U.S. equity performance.

After-tax returns are calculated using distributions for the Fund’s Class D Shares for the periods following January 27, 2017; for the Fund’s Class S Shares for periods January 27, 2017 to July 6, 2009; for the JAD predecessor fund’s Class S Shares (formerly named Class I Shares) for the periods August 1, 2000 to July 6, 2009; and actual distributions for other classes of shares for periods prior to August 1, 2000. If Class D Shares of the Fund had been available during these earlier periods, distributions may have been different and thus, after-tax returns may have been different from those shown. 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 table. 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.

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 or if the investment personnel’s belief about a company’s intrinsic worth is incorrect.

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. Returns shown prior to June 5, 2017 are those of the Predecessor Fund, Henderson US Growth Opportunities Fund. The Predecessor Fund was advised by Henderson Global Investors (North America) Inc. and subadvised by Geneva. Class A Shares, Class C Shares, Class I Shares and Class R6 Shares of the Predecessor Fund were reorganized into Class A Shares, Class C Shares, Class I Shares and Class N Shares, respectively, of the Fund on June 2, 2017. In connection with this reorganization, certain shareholders of the Predecessor Fund who held shares directly with the Predecessor Fund and not through an intermediary had the Class A Shares, Class C Shares, Class I Shares and Class N Shares of the Fund received in the Merger automatically exchanged for Class D Shares of the Fund following the Merger. Class A Shares, Class C Shares and Class I Shares of the Predecessor Fund commenced operations with the Predecessor Fund’s inception on December 18, 2014. Class R6 Shares of the Predecessor Fund commenced operations on November 30, 2015.

The performance shown for Class D Shares prior to June 5, 2017 reflects the performance of Class I Shares of the Predecessor Fund, calculated using the estimated fees and expenses of Class D Shares, net of any applicable fee and expense limitations or waivers.

Returns of the Fund will be different from the Predecessor Fund as they have different expenses.

Additional information about the Funds

Fees and 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, and other shareholder services, as well as reimbursement to Janus Capital of its out-of-pocket costs for services as administrator. You do not pay these fees directly but, as the Example in each Fund Summary shows, these costs are borne indirectly by all shareholders.

•

•	“Other Expenses”

_°

include an administrative services fee of 0.12% of the average daily net assets of Class D Shares for shareholder services provided by Janus Services LLC (“Janus Services”), the Funds’ transfer agent.

_°

may include acquired fund fees and expenses, which are indirect expenses a Fund may incur as a result of investing in shares of an underlying fund. “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. 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 table because that ratio includes only the direct operating expenses incurred by the Fund, not the indirect costs of investing in Acquired Funds. If applicable, such amounts are less than 0.01%.

_°	may include reimbursement to Janus Services of its out-of-pocket costs for arranging for the provision by third parties of certain servicing to shareholders.

•

•	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

borrowing, the percentage limitations included in these policies and elsewhere in this Prospectus and/or 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

Common Stock

Janus Henderson Balanced Fund and Janus Henderson Growth and Income Fund may each emphasize varying degrees of income. In the case of Janus Henderson Balanced Fund and Janus Henderson Growth and Income Fund, the portfolio managers may consider dividend-paying characteristics to a greater degree than other factors in selecting common stocks. Realization of income is not a significant consideration when choosing investments for the other Funds. Income realized on the Funds’ investments may be incidental to their investment objectives.

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)
•	other investment companies (such as exchange-traded funds)
•	preferred stocks and securities convertible into common stocks or preferred stocks
•	indexed/structured securities (such as commercial and residential mortgage- and asset-backed securities)

•

47	Janus Investment Fund

where direct investment may be restricted or unavailable, 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
•	equity and fixed-income securities issued in private placement transactions

Risks of the Funds

48	Janus Investment Fund

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.

•

Emerging Markets Risk. Within the parameters of its specific investment policies, each Fund may invest 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 Index ^sm . To the extent that a Fund invests a significant amount of its assets in one or more of these countries, its returns and net asset value may be affected to a large degree by events and economic conditions in such countries. The risks of foreign investing are heightened when investing in emerging markets, which may result in the price of investments in emerging markets experiencing 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. The securities markets of many of these countries 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 a Fund to obtain or to enforce a judgment against the issuers of such securities. In addition, a Fund’s investments may be denominated in foreign currencies and therefore, changes in the value of a country’s currency compared to the U.S. dollar may affect the value of the Fund’s investments. To the extent that a Fund invests a significant portion of its assets in the securities of issuers in or companies of a single country or region, it is more likely to be impacted by events or conditions affecting that country or region, which could have a negative impact on the Fund’s performance. A Fund may be subject to emerging markets risk to the extent that it invests 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. Some of the risks of investing directly in foreign and emerging market securities may be reduced when a Fund invests indirectly in foreign securities through various other investment vehicles including derivatives, which also involve other risks.

49	Janus Investment Fund

additional funding they will require or if additional Eurozone member states will require bailouts in the future. The risk of investing in securities in the European markets may also be heightened due to the referendum in which the United Kingdom voted to exit the EU (known as “Brexit”). There is considerable uncertainty about how Brexit will be conducted, how negotiations of necessary treaties and trade agreements will proceed, or how financial markets will react. In addition, one or more other countries may also abandon the euro and/or withdraw from the EU, placing its currency and banking system in jeopardy. 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.

50	Janus Investment Fund

Securities underlying mortgage- and asset-backed securities, which may include subprime mortgages, also may be subject to a higher degree of credit risk, valuation risk, and liquidity risk. To the extent that a Fund invests in derivatives tied to fixed-income securities, the Fund may be more substantially exposed to these risks than a fund that does not invest in such derivatives.

•	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

51	Janus Investment Fund

	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.

Please refer to the “Explanation of Rating Categories” section of the SAI for a description of bond rating categories.

52	Janus Investment Fund

risk than domestic securities. In unusual market conditions, even normally liquid securities may be affected by a degree of liquidity risk (i.e., if the number and capacity of traditional market participants is reduced). An inability to sell one or more portfolio positions can adversely affect a Fund’s value or prevent such Fund from being able to take advantage of other investment opportunities.

Loan Risk . Janus Henderson Balanced Fund may invest in various commercial loans. The risks of such investments vary, depending on the type of loans underlying the investments, as described below.

•	Bank Loan Risk . The bank loans in which Janus Henderson Balanced Fund invests may be denominated in U.S. or non-U.S. currencies, including the euro. Bank loans are obligations of companies or other entities entered into in connection with recapitalizations, acquisitions, and refinancings. The Fund’s investments in bank loans are generally acquired as a participation interest in, or assignment of, loans originated by a lender or other financial institution. These investments may include institutionally-traded floating and fixed-rate debt securities. The bank loans underlying these securities often involve borrowers with low credit ratings whose financial conditions are troubled or uncertain, including companies that are highly leveraged or in bankruptcy proceedings. Participation interests and assignments involve credit, interest rate, and liquidity risk. Some participation interests and assignments may not be considered “securities,” and purchasers, such as the Fund, therefore may not be entitled to rely on the anti-fraud protections of the federal securities laws. Additionally, because Janus Capital, in the course of investing the Fund’s assets in loans, may have access to material non-public information regarding the borrower, the ability of the Fund to purchase or sell publicly-traded securities of such borrowers may be restricted. In addition, to the extent the Fund invests in non-U.S. bank loan investments, those investments also are subject to the risks of foreign investment, including Eurozone risk.
	If the 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, the 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. There may be a number of intermediate participants in bank loan transactions and loan agreements that have specific rights, obligations, terms, and conditions. As such, any number of factors in an investment in bank loans could cause the Fund to lose income or principal on a particular investment, which in turn could affect the Fund’s returns, and you could lose money.
	Interest rates on floating rate bank loans adjust with interest rate changes and/or issuer credit quality, and unexpected changes in such rates could result in losses to the Fund. Additionally, borrowers may pay back principal in whole or part, prior to scheduled due dates. Such prepayment may result in the Fund realizing less income on a particular investment and replacing the floating rate bank loan with a less attractive security, which may provide less return to the Fund.
	Bank loans are generally less liquid than many other fixed-income securities and may be subject to restrictions on resale. Transactions in bank loans may take more than seven days to settle. As a result, the proceeds related to the sale of bank loans may not be available to make additional investments or to meet the Fund’s redemption obligations until a substantial period after the sale of the loans. To the extent that extended settlement creates short-term liquidity needs, the Fund may satisfy these needs by holding additional cash or selling other investments (potentially at an inopportune time, which could result in losses to the Fund).
	The Fund may not be able to identify and invest in attractive floating rate bank loans, such as senior loans, as the market for such investments may be limited in certain economic conditions or because of a high number of potential purchasers of assignments and participations. The Fund may also invest in other floating rate debt securities or other investments. For example, the Fund may invest in junior or subordinated loans or unsecured loans. Such loans may not provide desired returns or may increase the potential for loss of income or principal. Bank loan investments may be generally considered speculative and risks arising from the Fund’s investments in bank loans may be similar to those of investments in “junk”

53	Janus Investment Fund

	bonds or below investment grade investments. The Fund’s investments in bank loans may be more sensitive to economic changes, political changes, or adverse developments specific to the borrower than higher quality investments.
•	Bridge Loan Risk. Investments in bridge loans subject the Fund to certain risks in addition to those described above. In addition, any delay in obtaining permanent financing subjects the bridge loan investor to increased risk. A borrower’s use of bridge loans also involves the risk that the borrower may be unable to locate permanent financing to replace the bridge loan, which may impair the borrower’s perceived creditworthiness.
•	DIP Loan Risk. Investments in DIP loans are subject to the risk that the entity will not emerge from bankruptcy and will be forced to liquidate its assets. In the event of liquidation, the Fund’s only recourse will be against the property securing the DIP loan.
•	Mezzanine Loan Risk. Mezzanine loans generally are rated below investment grade, and frequently are unrated. Because mezzanine loans typically are the most subordinated debt obligation in an issuer’s capital structure, they are subject to the additional risk that the cash flow of the related borrower and any property securing the loan may be insufficient to repay the loan after the related borrower pays off any senior obligations. Mezzanine loans, which are usually issued in private placement transactions, may be considered illiquid. In addition, they are often used by smaller companies that may be highly leveraged, and in turn may be subject to a higher risk of default. Investment in mezzanine loans is a specialized practice that depends more heavily on independent credit analysis than investments in other fixed-income securities.

54	Janus Investment Fund

volatility. Mortgage-backed securities are also subject to prepayment risk. When interest rates decline, borrowers may pay off their mortgages sooner than expected. This can reduce a Fund’s returns because the Fund will have to reinvest that money at lower prevailing interest rates. Investments in mortgage-backed securities, including those comprised of subprime mortgages, may be subject to a higher degree of credit risk, valuation risk, and liquidity risk than various other types of fixed-income securities. Additionally, although mortgage-backed securities are generally supported by some form of government or private guarantee and/or insurance, there is no assurance that guarantors or insurers will meet their obligations.

55	Janus Investment Fund

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.

Sovereign Debt Risk. A Fund may invest in U.S. and non-U.S. government debt securities (“sovereign debt”). Some investments in sovereign debt, such as U.S. sovereign debt, are considered low risk. However, investments in sovereign debt, especially the debt of less developed countries, can involve a high degree of risk, including the risk that the governmental entity that controls the repayment of sovereign debt may not be willing or able to repay the principal and/or to pay the interest on its sovereign debt in a timely manner. A sovereign debtor’s willingness or ability to satisfy its debt obligation may be affected by various factors, including its cash flow situation, the extent of its foreign currency reserves, the availability of foreign exchange when a payment is due, the relative size of its debt position in relation to its economy as a whole, the sovereign debtor’s policy toward international lenders, and local political constraints to which the governmental entity may be subject. Sovereign debtors may also be dependent on expected disbursements from foreign governments, multilateral agencies, and other entities. The failure of a sovereign debtor to implement economic reforms, achieve specified levels of economic performance, or repay principal or interest when due may result in the cancellation of third party commitments to lend funds to the sovereign debtor, which may further impair such debtor’s ability or willingness to timely service its debts. A Fund may be requested to participate in the rescheduling of such sovereign debt and to extend further loans to governmental entities, which may adversely affect the Fund’s holdings. In the event of default, there may be limited or no legal remedies for collecting sovereign debt and there may be no bankruptcy proceedings through which the Fund may collect all or part of the sovereign debt that a governmental entity has not repaid. In addition, to the extent a Fund invests in non-U.S. sovereign debt, it may be subject to currency risk.

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. Each of Janus Henderson Enterprise Fund, Janus Henderson Triton Fund, and Janus Henderson Venture Fund has limited sales of its Shares. Additional information regarding general policies and exceptions can be found under Closed Fund Policies in the “Shareholder’s Manual” section of this Prospectus and in the “Shares of the Trust” section of the SAI.

LIQUIDATION/REORGANIZATION OF A FUND

DISTRIBUTION OF THE FUNDS

66	Janus Investment Fund

Distributions and taxes

Distributions

Distribution Schedule

How Distributions Affect a Fund’s NAV

“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 federal income 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 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. To receive distributions in cash, contact a Janus Henderson representative at 1-800-525-3713. 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.

Distribution Options

When you open an account, it will automatically provide for reinvestment of all distributions. If you have a non-retirement account, you may change your distribution option at any time by logging on to janushenderson.com/individual, by calling a Janus Henderson representative, or by writing to the Funds at one of the addresses listed in the Shareholder’s Manual section of this Prospectus. The Funds offer the following options:

Reinvestment Option. You may reinvest your income dividends and capital gains distributions in additional shares.

Cash Option. You may receive your income dividends and capital gains distributions in cash.

Reinvest and Cash Option. You may receive either your income dividends or capital gains distributions in cash and reinvest the other in additional shares.

Redirect Option. You may direct your dividends or capital gains distributions to purchase shares of another Janus Henderson fund.

The Funds reserve the right to reinvest uncashed dividend and distribution checks into your open non-retirement account at the NAV next computed after the check is cancelled. Subsequent distributions may also be reinvested. For more information, refer to “Shareholder Services and Account Policies.”

67	Janus Investment Fund

TAXES

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 an additional 3.8% Medicare contribution tax on net investment income. Net investment income includes dividends paid by a Fund and capital gains from any sale or exchange 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.

Shareholder’s manual

This Shareholder’s Manual is for those shareholders investing directly with the Funds. This section will help you become familiar with the different types of accounts you can establish with Janus Capital. It also explains in detail the wide array of services and features you can establish on your account, as well as describes account policies and fees that may apply to your account. Account policies (including fees), services, and features may be modified or discontinued without shareholder approval or prior notice.

Doing business with Janus Henderson

The Shares are generally no longer being made available to new investors who do not already have a direct account with the Janus Henderson funds. The Shares are available only to investors who hold accounts directly with the Janus Henderson 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 Henderson funds. Under certain limited circumstances, shareholders of other Janus Henderson share classes who no longer wish to hold shares through an intermediary may be eligible to purchase Class D Shares.

In addition, directors, officers, and employees of Janus Henderson Group plc (“JHG”) and its affiliates, as well as Trustees and officers of the Funds, may purchase Class D Shares. Under certain circumstances, where there has been a change in the form of ownership due to, for example, mandatory retirement distributions, legal proceedings, estate settlements, or the gifting of Shares, the recipient of Class D Shares may continue to purchase Class D Shares.

The Funds offer multiple classes of shares in order to meet the needs of various types of investors. 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. If you would like additional information about the other available share classes, please call 1-800-525-3713.

Employees of JHG and its subsidiaries may open Fund accounts for $100.

Minimum Investment Requirements

Due to the proportionately higher costs of maintaining small accounts, the Funds reserve the right to deduct an annual $25 minimum balance fee per Fund account (paid to Janus Services) with values below the minimums described under “Minimum Investments” or to close Fund accounts valued at less than $100. This policy may not apply to accounts that fall below the minimums solely as a result of market value fluctuations or to those accounts not subject to a minimum investment requirement. The fee or account closure will occur during the fourth quarter of each calendar year. You may receive written notice before we charge the $25 fee or close your 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 the fee being charged or the redemption.

Types of Account Ownership

Please refer to janushenderson.com/individual for the appropriate account application and for information related to maintaining an account. Each of Janus Henderson Enterprise Fund, Janus Henderson Triton Fund, and Janus Henderson Venture Fund has limited sales of its Shares. Additional information regarding general policies and exceptions can be found under Closed Fund Policies in the “Shareholder’s Manual” section of this Prospectus and in the “Shares of the Trust” section of the SAI.

Individual or Joint Ownership

Individual accounts are owned by one person. Joint accounts have two or more owners.

Trust

An established trust can open an account. The names of each trustee, the name of the trust, and the date of the trust agreement must be included on the application.

Business Accounts

Corporations and partnerships may also open an account. The application must be signed by an authorized officer of the corporation or a general partner of the partnership.

Tax-Deferred Accounts

Investors should consult their tax adviser or legal counsel before selecting a tax-deferred account.

Investing for Your Retirement

Please visit janushenderson.com/individual or call a Janus Henderson representative for more complete information regarding the different types of IRAs available. Distributions from these plans may be subject to income tax and generally to an additional tax if withdrawn prior to age 59 ¹ ⁄ 2 or used for a nonqualifying purpose.

71	Janus Investment Fund

Traditional and Roth IRAs

Both IRAs allow most individuals with earned income to contribute up to the lesser of $5,500 or 100% of compensation, with future years increased by cost-of-living adjustments. In addition, IRA holders age 50 or older may contribute $1,000 more than these limits.

Simplified Employee Pension (“SEP”) IRA

This plan allows small business owners (including sole proprietors) to make tax-deductible contributions for themselves and any eligible employee(s). A SEP requires an IRA (a “SEP-IRA”) to be set up for each SEP participant.

Profit Sharing or Money Purchase Pension Plans

These plans are open to corporations, partnerships, and small business owners (including sole proprietors) for the benefit of their employees and themselves. You may only maintain this type of account via written request. Please contact a Janus Henderson representative for more information.

Accounts for the Benefit of a Child

Custodial Accounts (UGMA or UTMA)

An UGMA/UTMA account is a custodial account managed for the benefit of a minor.

Coverdell Education Savings Account

This tax-deferred plan allows individuals, subject to certain income limitations, to contribute up to $2,000 annually on behalf of any child under the age of 18. Contributions are also allowed on behalf of children with special needs beyond age 18. Distributions are generally tax-free when used for qualified education expenses.

Pricing of fund shares

All purchases, exchanges, and redemptions will be duly processed at the NAV as described under “Policies in Relation to Transactions” after your request is received in good order by a Fund or its agents.

74	Janus Investment Fund

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.

Policies in Relation to Transactions

All requests, including but not limited to, exchanges between a Fund and other Janus Henderson funds, purchases by check or automated investment, redemptions by wire transfer, ACH transfer, or check, must be received in good order by the Fund or its agents prior to the close of the regular trading session of the NYSE (normally 4:00 p.m. New York time) in order to receive that day’s NAV. Transaction requests submitted in writing and mailed to Janus Henderson’s P.O. Box, once delivered, are considered received for processing the following business day. Transactions involving funds which pay dividends will generally begin to earn dividends, as applicable, on the first bank business day following the date of purchase.

Administrative services fees

The Funds pay an annual administrative services fee of 0.12% of net assets of Class D Shares. These administrative services fees are paid by Class D Shares of each Fund. Janus Services provides or arranges for the provision of shareholder services including, but not limited to, recordkeeping, accounting, answering inquiries regarding accounts, transaction processing, transaction confirmations, and the mailing of prospectuses and shareholder reports.

Payments to financial intermediaries by Janus Capital or its affiliates

With respect to other share classes not offered in this Prospectus, Janus Capital or its affiliates pay fees, from their own assets, to selected brokerage firms, banks, financial advisors, retirement plan service providers, and other financial intermediaries that sell the Janus Henderson funds for distribution, marketing, promotional, or related services, and/or for providing recordkeeping, subaccounting, transaction processing, and other shareholder or administrative services (including payments for processing transactions via the National Securities Clearing Corporation (“NSCC”) or other means) in connection with investments in the Janus Henderson funds. These fees are in addition to any fees that may be paid by the Janus Henderson funds for these types of services or other services. Shareholders investing through an intermediary should consider whether such arrangements exist when evaluating any recommendations from an intermediary and when considering which share class of a fund is most appropriate.

In addition, Janus Capital or its affiliates periodically share certain marketing expenses with selected 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 make payments to participate in selected 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 Henderson 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 Henderson funds to enable the intermediaries and their salespersons to make suitable recommendations, provide useful services, and maintain the necessary infrastructure to make the Janus Henderson funds available to their customers.

75	Janus Investment Fund

Henderson 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 Henderson funds in various ways within such financial intermediary’s organization.

The payment arrangements described above will not change the price an investor pays for Shares nor the amount that a Janus Henderson 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.

Paying for shares

Please note the following when purchasing Shares:

•	Cash, credit cards, third party checks (with certain limited exceptions), travelers cheques, credit card checks, line of credit checks, or money orders will not be accepted.
•	All purchases must be made in U.S. dollars and checks must be drawn on U.S. banks or an accepted non-U.S. bank.
•	Purchases initiated using a bill-pay service (or an equivalent) and presented either electronically or in the form of a check are considered direct deposit transactions.
•	When purchasing Shares through the Automatic Investment Program, your automatic investment selection(s) will generally be active within three days following receipt of your authorization for the date and amount you specify. If no date or dollar amount is specified on your application, investments of $50 will be made on the 20th of each month. If the balance in the Janus Henderson fund account you are buying into falls to zero as the result of a redemption, exchange, or minimum balance fee, your Automatic Investment Program will be discontinued.
•	We may make additional attempts to debit your predesignated bank account for automated investments that initially fail. You are liable for any costs associated with these additional attempts. If your automated investment fails, you may purchase Shares of the Funds by submitting good funds via another method accepted by the Funds (e.g., by wire transfer). In this case, your purchase will be processed at the next NAV determined after we receive good funds, not at the NAV available as of the date of the original request.
•	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.”
•	If all or a portion of a purchase is received for investment without a specific fund designation, for investment in one of our closed funds, or for investment in a fund that is not yet available for public sale, the undesignated amount or entire investment, as applicable, will be invested in Janus Henderson Government Money Market Fund. For investments without a specific fund designation, where you own a single Fund account with a current balance greater than zero, the investment will be applied to that Fund account. For investments without a specific fund designation, where you own two or more Fund accounts with current balances greater than zero, and for investments in closed funds, unless you later direct Janus Henderson to (i) buy shares of another Janus Henderson fund or (ii) sell shares of Janus Henderson Government Money Market Fund and return the proceeds (including any dividends earned) to you, Janus Henderson will treat your inaction as approval of the purchase of Janus Henderson Government Money Market Fund. If you hold shares of a closed fund and submit an order directly to Janus Henderson for your account in that closed fund, your account must be open and your order must clearly indicate that you are currently a shareholder of the closed fund, or your money will be invested in Janus Henderson Government Money Market Fund. If you submit an order to buy shares of a fund that is not yet available for investment (during a subscription period), your investment will be held in Janus Henderson Government Money Market Fund until the new fund’s commencement of operations. At that time, your investment (including any dividends) will be automatically exchanged from Janus Henderson Government Money Market Fund to the new fund. All orders for purchase, exchange, or redemption will receive the NAV as described under “Policies in Relation to Transactions.”

76	Janus Investment Fund

•	For Fund purchases by check, if your check does not clear for any reason, your purchase will be cancelled.
•	If your purchase is cancelled for any reason, you will be responsible for any losses or fees imposed by your bank and may be responsible for losses that may be incurred as a result of any decline in the value of the cancelled purchase.

In compliance with the Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001 (“USA PATRIOT Act”), Janus Capital 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. For investors other than individuals: When you open an account, you will be asked for the name of the entity, its principal place of business, and taxpayer identification number, and you may be requested to provide information on persons with authority or control over the account, such as name, permanent street address, date of birth, and Social Security number. Until verification of your identity is made, Janus Capital may temporarily limit additional share purchases. In addition, Janus Capital may close an account if it is unable to verify a shareholder’s identity. Please contact a Janus Henderson representative if you need additional assistance when completing your application or additional information about the Anti-Money Laundering Program.

The Funds have also adopted an identity theft policy (“Red Flag Policy”) to detect, prevent, and mitigate patterns, practices, or specific activities that indicate the possible existence of identity theft. The Funds are required by law to obtain certain personal information which will be used to verify your identity. The Red Flag Policy applies to the opening of Fund accounts and activity with respect to existing accounts.

Exchanges

Please note the following when exchanging Shares:

•	An exchange represents the redemption (or sale) of shares from one Fund and the purchase of shares of another Fund, which may produce a taxable gain or loss in a non-retirement account.
•	You may generally exchange Shares of a Fund for Shares of the same class of any other fund in the Trust, with the exception of the Janus Henderson money market funds. Only accounts beneficially owned by natural persons will be allowed to exchange to Janus Henderson Money Market Fund; all other account types can only exchange to Janus Henderson Government Money Market Fund.
•	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. A Fund’s fees and expenses differ between share classes. Exchanging from a direct share class to one held through an intermediary typically results in increased expenses. This is because share classes distributed through intermediaries include additional fees for administration and/or distribution to pay for services provided by intermediaries. Please read the Prospectus for the share class you are interested in prior to investing in that share class.
•	New regular Janus Henderson fund accounts established by exchange must be opened with $2,500 or the total account value if the value of the Janus Henderson fund account you are exchanging from is less than $2,500. (If your Janus Henderson fund account balance does not meet the minimum investment requirements, you may be subject to an annual minimum balance fee or account closure. For more information, refer to “Minimum Investment Requirements.”)
•	UGMA/UTMA accounts, Traditional or Roth IRAs, Simplified Employee Pension IRAs, and Coverdell Education Savings Accounts established by exchange must meet the minimum investment requirements previously described. If the value of the Janus Henderson fund account you are exchanging from is less than the stated minimum, you must exchange the entire balance. (If your Janus Henderson fund account balance does not meet the minimum investment requirements, you may be subject to an annual minimum balance fee or account closure. For more information, refer to “Minimum Investment Requirements.”)

77	Janus Investment Fund

•	New Janus Henderson fund non-retirement accounts established by an exchange (or exchange purchases to an existing Roth IRA) resulting from a required minimum distribution from a retirement account do not have an initial minimum investment requirement. (If your Janus Henderson fund account balance does not meet the minimum investment requirements, you may be subject to an annual minimum balance fee or account closure. For more information, refer to “Minimum Investment Requirements.”)
•	Exchanges between existing Janus Henderson fund accounts must meet the $100 subsequent investment requirement.
•	For Systematic Exchanges, if no date is specified on your request, systematic exchanges will be made on the 20th of each month. You may establish this option for as little as $100 per exchange. If the balance in the Janus Henderson fund account you are exchanging from falls below the Systematic Exchange amount, all remaining shares will be exchanged and your Systematic Exchange Program will be discontinued.
•	The exchange privilege is not intended as a vehicle for short-term or excessive trading. A Fund may suspend or terminate the exchange privilege of any investor who is identified as having a pattern of short-term trading. Different restrictions may apply if you invest through an intermediary. 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.
•	With certain exceptions, exchanges between Janus Henderson fund accounts will be accepted only if the registrations are identical. If you are exchanging into a closed Janus Henderson fund, you will need to meet criteria for investing in the closed fund. For more information, refer to Closed Fund Policies in the “Other Information” section of this Prospectus.
•	If the shares you are exchanging are held in certificate form, you must return the certificate to Janus Henderson prior to making any exchanges. Shares are no longer available in certificate form.

Note: For the fastest and easiest way to exchange shares, log on to janushenderson.com/individual* 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

*	Certain account types and transactions are not available via janushenderson.com. For more information, access janushenderson.com/individual or refer to this Shareholder’s Manual.

Payment of redemption proceeds

As previously noted, with certain 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.

By Electronic Transfer – Generally all accounts are automatically eligible for the electronic redemption option if bank information is provided.

•	Next Day Wire Transfer – Your redemption proceeds can be electronically transferred to your predesignated bank account on the next bank business day after receipt of your redemption request (wire transfer). You may be charged a fee for each wire transfer, and your bank may charge an additional fee to receive the wire.
•	ACH (Automated Clearing House) Transfer – Your redemption proceeds can be electronically transferred to your predesignated bank account on or about the second bank business day after receipt of your redemption request. There is no fee associated with this type of electronic transfer.

By Check – Redemption proceeds will be sent to the shareholder(s) of record at the address of record normally within seven days after receipt of a valid redemption request. During the 10 days following an address change, requests for redemption checks to be sent to a new address require a signature guarantee.

By Systematic Redemption – If no date is specified on your request, systematic redemptions will be made on or about the 24th of each month. If the balance in the Janus Henderson fund account you are selling from falls to zero, your Systematic Redemption Program will be discontinued.

78	Janus Investment Fund

The Funds typically expect to meet redemption requests by paying out proceeds from cash or cash equivalent portfolio holdings, or by selling portfolio holdings. In stressed market conditions, and other appropriate circumstances, redemption methods may include borrowing funds or redeeming in-kind.

Generally, orders to sell Shares may be initiated at any time at janushenderson.com/individual, by telephone, or in writing. Certain accounts may require a written request. If the Shares being sold were purchased by check or automated investment, the Funds can delay the payment of your redemption proceeds for up to 15 days from the day of purchase to allow the purchase to clear. In addition, there may be a delay in the payment of your redemption proceeds if you request a redemption by electronic transfer and your bank information is new. Unless you provide alternate instructions, your proceeds will be invested in Shares of Janus Henderson Government Money Market Fund during the 15-day hold period.

Note: For the fastest and easiest way to redeem shares, log on to janushenderson.com/individual* 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

*	Certain account types and transactions are not available via janushenderson.com. For more information, access janushenderson.com/individual or refer to this Shareholder’s Manual.

Large Shareholder Redemptions

Certain large shareholders, such as other funds, individuals, accounts, and Janus Capital 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, which could lead to an increase in the Fund’s expense ratio.

Redemptions In-Kind

79	Janus Investment Fund

Written Instructions

To redeem or exchange all or part of your Shares in writing, your request should be sent to one of the addresses listed under “Doing Business with Janus Henderson.” Requests or documents received in a language other than English may be inadvertently delayed or returned due to an inability to accurately translate the intended instructions. Please include the following information:

•	the name of the Janus Henderson fund(s) being redeemed or exchanged;
•	the account number(s);
•	the amount of money or number of shares being redeemed or exchanged;
•	the name(s) on the account;
•	the signature(s) of one or more registered account owners; and
•	your daytime telephone number.

Signature Guarantee

A signature guarantee for each registered account owner is required if any of the following is applicable:

•	You request a redemption by check above a certain dollar amount.
•	You would like a check made payable to anyone other than the shareholder(s) of record.
•	You would like a check mailed to an address that has been changed within 10 days of the redemption request.
•	You would like a check mailed to an address other than the address of record.
•	You would like your redemption proceeds sent to a bank account other than a bank account of record.

The Funds reserve the right to require a signature guarantee under other circumstances or to reject or delay a redemption on certain legal grounds.

A signature guarantee may be refused if any of the following is applicable:

•	It does not appear valid or in good form.
•	The transaction amount exceeds the surety bond limit of the signature guarantee.
•	The guarantee stamp has been reported as stolen, missing, or counterfeit.

How to Obtain a Signature Guarantee

A signature guarantee assures that a signature is genuine. The signature guarantee protects shareholders from unauthorized account transfers. The following financial institutions may guarantee signatures: banks, savings and loan associations, trust companies, credit unions, broker-dealers, and member firms of a national securities exchange. Call your financial institution to see if it has the ability to guarantee a signature. A signature guarantee cannot be provided by a notary public.

CLOSED FUND POLICIES – JANUS HENDERSON ENTERPRISE FUND

whether the participant invested in such Fund prior to its closing; (v) Janus Capital encourages its employees to own shares of the Janus Henderson funds, and as such, employees of Janus Capital and its affiliates may open new accounts in the closed Fund; Trustees of the Janus Henderson funds and directors of JHG may also open new accounts in the closed Fund; (vi) Janus Capital “fund of funds,” which is a fund that primarily invests in other Janus Henderson mutual funds, may invest in the Fund; (vii) certain non-Janus Capital “fund of funds” that have an agreement with Janus Capital; (viii) sponsors of certain wrap programs, including RIAs for fee-based business, may continue to invest in the Fund on behalf of existing shareholders and new investors; and (ix) in the case of certain mergers or reorganizations, retirement plans may be able to add the closed Fund as an investment option. Such mergers, reorganizations, acquisitions, or other business combinations 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. In addition, new accounts were permitted in the Fund for certain plans and programs offered in connection with employer-sponsored retirement plans where the retirement plan offered the Fund prior to its closure, or where the 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.

Excessive trading

Excessive and Short-Term 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 Funds are intended for long-term investment purposes, 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 and procedures may be cancelled or rescinded 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 Henderson funds may be considered in enforcing these policies and procedures. Direct investors should be aware that the Funds are also available for purchase through third party intermediaries. As described below, 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

82	Janus Investment Fund

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 Janus Henderson 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”.

The Funds’ Trustees may approve from time to time a redemption fee to be imposed by any Janus Henderson fund, subject to 60 days’ notice to shareholders of that fund.

Investors in other share classes 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.

The Funds’ policies and procedures regarding excessive trading may be modified at any time by the Funds’ Trustees.

Excessive Trading Risks

83	Janus Investment Fund

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 shares held by a Fund.

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, for share classes sold through financial intermediaries, 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.

Availability of Portfolio Holdings Information

•	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 Henderson representative at 1-800-525-3713 (toll free). Portfolio holdings consisting of at least the names of the holdings are generally available on a monthly basis with a 30-day lag. Holdings are generally posted approximately two business days thereafter under Full Holdings for each Fund at janushenderson.com/reports.
•	Top Holdings. Each Fund’s 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.
•	Other Information. Each Fund may occasionally provide security breakdowns (e.g., industry, sector, regional, market capitalization, and asset allocation), top performance contributors/detractors, 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. Top performance contributors/detractors may include the percentage of contribution/detraction to Fund performance. For Janus Henderson Balanced Fund, top/bottom fixed-income issuers ranked by performance attribution, including the percentage of attribution to Fund performance, average Fund weighting, and other relevant data points, may be provided monthly with a 15-day lag and on a calendar quarter-end basis with a 15-day lag.

Shareholder services and account policies

Address Changes

For the easiest way to change the address on your account, visit janushenderson.com/individual. You may also call a Janus Henderson representative or send a written request signed by one or more shareholder(s) of record. Include the name of the Janus Henderson fund(s) you hold, the account number(s), the name(s) on the account, and both the old and new addresses. Certain options may be suspended for 10 days following an address change unless a signature guarantee is provided.

Bank Account Changes

For the easiest way to change your bank account of record or add new bank account information to your account, visit janushenderson.com/individual. You may also send a written request signed by the shareholder of record or by each shareholder of record if more than one. Please note that you may change or add bank information online at janushenderson.com/individual for purchases only. Certain accounts may require a written notice and, in some instances, bank privileges may not be available. We cannot accept changes or additions to bank account redemption options online at janushenderson.com/individual or over the telephone. If multiple account owners are named on the added bank account, at least one name on the bank account must match one name on the Fund account. There may be a delay in the payment of your redemption proceeds if you request a redemption by electronic transfer to a new bank or bank account.

Distributions

Generally, all income dividends and capital gains distributions will automatically be reinvested in your Fund account. If you wish to change your distribution option, please visit janushenderson.com/individual, call a Janus Henderson representative, or send a written request signed by one or more shareholder(s) of record.

Your non-retirement Fund account distribution checks may be reinvested in your Fund account if you do not cash them within one year of the date they were written. No interest will accrue on amounts represented by uncashed distribution or redemption checks.

Involuntary Redemptions

The Funds reserve the right to close an account if the shareholder is deemed to engage in activities which are illegal or otherwise believed to be detrimental to the Funds. This includes, but is not limited to, accounts that a Fund or its agents believe are engaged in market timing. Any time shares are redeemed in a taxable account, it is considered a taxable event. You are responsible for any tax liabilities associated with an involuntary redemption of your account.

Lost (Unclaimed/Abandoned) Accounts

It is important that the Funds maintain a correct address for each shareholder. An incorrect address may cause a shareholder’s account statements and other mailings to be returned to the Funds as undeliverable. Based upon statutory requirements for returned mail, Janus Capital will attempt to locate the shareholder or rightful owner of the account. If Janus Capital is unable to locate the shareholder, then Janus Capital 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.

Online and Telephone Transactions

You may initiate many transactions through janushenderson.com/individual or by calling Janus Henderson XpressLine ^tm . You may also contact a Janus Henderson representative. Generally all new accounts automatically receive online and telephone transaction privileges including redemption privileges. If you do not want to receive these privileges, please call a Janus Henderson representative. The Funds and their agents will not be responsible for any losses, costs, or expenses resulting from unauthorized transactions when reasonable procedures designed to verify the identity of the online user or caller are followed.

Your ability to access your account or transact business electronically may be impacted due to unexpected circumstances, such as system outages, or during periods of increased web activity. For example, periods of substantial market change or other unexpected events can contribute to high call volumes, which may delay your ability to reach a Janus Henderson representative by telephone.

85	Janus Investment Fund

If you experience difficulty transacting business with us through a particular method, please consider using an alternate method, such as visiting janushenderson.com/individual, calling Janus Henderson XpressLine ^tm , contacting a Janus Henderson representative by telephone, or sending written instructions to complete your transaction. Please remember that purchase, exchange, or redemption requests must be received in good order by a Fund or its agents prior to the close of the regular trading session of the NYSE in order to receive that day’s NAV.

Your account information, including online credentials, should be kept private, and you should immediately review any account statements that you receive from Janus Henderson. Someone other than you could act on your account if that person is able to provide the required identifying information. Contact Janus Henderson immediately about any transactions you believe to be unauthorized.

Registration Changes

To change the name on an account, the shares are generally transferred to a new account. In some cases, legal documentation may be required. Please visit janushenderson.com/individual or call a Janus Henderson representative for further instructions.

Statements, Reports, and Prospectuses

We will send you quarterly confirmations of all transactions. You may elect at janushenderson.com/edelivery to discontinue delivery of your paper statements, and instead receive them online. In addition, at janushenderson.com/individual, the Funds will send you an immediate transaction confirmation statement after every non-systematic transaction. If you have not elected to receive online statements, your confirmation will be mailed within three days of the transaction. The Funds reserve the right to charge a fee for additional account statement requests.

The Funds produce financial reports that include a complete list of each of the Funds’ portfolio holdings semiannually, and update their prospectus annually. You may elect to receive these reports and prospectus updates electronically at janushenderson.com/edelivery. The Funds’ fiscal year ends September 30. Janus Henderson U.S. Growth Opportunities Fund has changed its fiscal year end to September 30 in order to align its fiscal year end and reporting cycle with that of other funds in the fund complex. In order to implement this change, the Fund operated in a two-month stub period from August 1, 2017 to September 30, 2017 and then began a new fiscal year on October 1, 2017.

Unless you instruct Janus Henderson otherwise by contacting a Janus Henderson representative, the Funds will mail only one report or prospectus to your address of record (“household”), even if more than one person in your household has a Fund account. This process, known as “householding,” reduces the amount of mail you receive and helps lower Fund expenses. If you decide that you no longer want the mailing of these documents to be combined with the other members of your household, please call a Janus Henderson representative or send a written request signed by one or more shareholder(s) of record. Individual copies will be sent within thirty (30) days after the Funds receive your instructions.

Taxpayer Identification Number

On the application or other appropriate forms, you may be asked to certify that your Social Security or employer identification number is correct and that you are not subject to backup withholding for failing to report income to the IRS. If you are subject to backup withholding, or you did not certify your taxpayer identification number, the IRS requires the Funds to withhold a certain percentage (at the currently applicable rate) of any dividends paid and redemption or exchange proceeds. In addition to this backup withholding, you may be subject to a $50 fee to reimburse the Funds for any penalty that the IRS may impose.

Temporary Suspension of Services

The Funds or their agents may, in case of emergency, temporarily suspend telephone transactions and other shareholder services. As previously noted, the Funds may postpone payment of redemption proceeds for up to seven calendar days. In addition, 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. The exchange privilege may also be suspended in these circumstances.

Financial highlights

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 information for the fiscal years ended on or prior to July 31, 2016 has been audited by the auditor to the Predecessor Funds.

The total returns in the tables represent the rate that an investor would have earned (or lost) on an investment in Class D Shares of the Funds (assuming reinvestment of all dividends and distributions).

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES

The Fund pursues its investment objective by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) in equity securities of Asian issuers (excluding Japanese issuers). An Asian issuer is generally considered to be any company that (i) is incorporated or has its principal business activities in an Asian country; (ii) is primarily listed on the trading market of an Asian country; or (iii) derives 50% or more of its revenue from, or has 50% or more of its assets in, one or more Asian countries. The Fund considers “Asian countries” to include, but not be limited to, Hong Kong, China, South Korea, Taiwan, Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia, Philippines, India, Vietnam, Pakistan, and Sri Lanka. Some of these countries may represent developing or emerging markets. The Fund may have significant exposure to emerging market countries. Subject to the Fund’s 80% investment policy, the Fund may also invest in issuers from other countries, including Australia and New Zealand.

The Fund generally invests in equity securities, which consist primarily of common stocks, preferred stocks, depositary receipts, and convertible securities, but may also include other types of instruments, such as equity-linked securities, real estate-related companies, and real estate investment trusts sponsored by Asian real estate companies. The Fund may invest in companies of any market capitalization. While the Fund intends to diversify its investments across a number of different countries, including emerging market countries, it may, under unusual circumstances, invest all or a significant portion of its assets in a single Asian country. Due to the nature of the securities in which the Fund invests, it may have relatively high portfolio turnover compared to other funds.

The portfolio managers apply a “bottom up” approach in choosing investments. In other words, the portfolio managers look at companies one at a time to determine if a company is an attractive investment opportunity and if it is consistent with the Fund’s investment policies. The portfolio managers will also analyze each company from a macro perspective taking into consideration any important themes or issues that may impact the investment environment in certain regions or sectors and to estimate regional market risks.

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 Asian equity portfolio, including common stocks. Common stocks tend to be more volatile than many other investment choices.

3	Janus Henderson Asia Equity Fund

Foreign Exposure Risk. The Fund normally has significant exposure to foreign markets as a result of its investments in foreign securities, including investments in emerging markets, 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. 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. The Fund’s investments in emerging market countries may involve risks greater than, or in addition to, the risks of investing in more developed countries.

Emerging Markets Risk. The risks of foreign investing mentioned above are heightened when investing in emerging markets. Emerging markets securities involve a number of additional risks, which may result from 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, 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 the Fund’s investments. In addition, the Fund’s investments may be denominated in foreign currencies and therefore, changes in the value of a country’s currency compared to the U.S. dollar may affect the value of the Fund’s investments. To the extent that the Fund invests a significant portion of its assets in the securities of issuers in or companies of a single country or region, it is more likely to be impacted by events or conditions affecting that country or region, which could have a negative impact on the Fund’s performance. Additionally, foreign and emerging market risks, including but not limited to price controls, expropriation or confiscatory taxation, imposition or enforcement of foreign ownership limits, nationalization, and restrictions on repatriation of assets may be heightened to the extent the Fund invests in Chinese local market securities. Some of the risks of investing directly in foreign and emerging market securities may be reduced when the Fund invests indirectly in foreign securities through various other investment vehicles including derivatives, which also involve other risks. As of September 30, 2017, approximately 79.5% of the Fund’s investments were in emerging markets (i.e. countries included in the MSCI Emerging Markets Index ^sm ).

Geographic Concentration Risk. Because the Fund intends to focus its investments in a particular geographic region, the Fund’s performance is expected to be closely tied to various factors such as social, financial, economic, and political conditions within that region or country. Specifically, the Fund’s investments in Asian issuers increase the Fund’s exposure to the risks associated with volatile securities markets, adverse exchange rates, social, political and regulatory developments, and economic environmental events (such as natural disasters) which may be particular to Asian countries. Events that negatively affect the fiscal stability of Asian countries may cause the value of the Fund’s shares to decrease, in some cases significantly. As a result, the Fund is likely to be more volatile than more geographically diverse funds. In addition, many of the economies of the Asian countries in which the Fund invests are interdependent, which may cause them to experience the impact of such events at the same time or may increase the possibility that conditions in one country or region might adversely impact the issuers of securities in a different country or region.

4	Janus Henderson Asia Equity Fund

depending on market and economic conditions, “growth” stocks may perform differently from the market as a whole and other types of securities.

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.

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. Class N Shares commenced operations on January 26, 2018.

•	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 for periods prior to December 31, 2017, 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 periods prior to December 31, 2017, the performance shown may have been different.

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 Henderson mutual funds.

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. The portfolio turnover rate of Henderson Emerging Markets Fund (the “Predecessor Fund”) and the Fund for the fiscal year August 1, 2016 to July 31, 2017 was 32% of the average value of the portfolio. The portfolio turnover rate of the Fund for the fiscal period August 1, 2017 to September 30, 2017 was 2% of the average value of the portfolio.

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES

The Fund pursues its investment objective by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) in equity securities of companies in emerging market countries. Equity securities include common stocks and related securities, such as preferred stock, convertible securities and depositary receipts. Emerging market countries are all countries represented by the MSCI Emerging Markets Index ^sm and/or those countries considered to be developing by the World Bank, the International Finance Corporation or the United Nations. These countries typically are located in the Asia-Pacific region, Eastern Europe, Central and South America, and Africa.

Emerging market companies are broadly defined to include any company that meets one or more of the following tests: (i) its country of organization, its primary business office and/or the principal trading market of its stock are located in an emerging market country, (ii) 50% or more of its assets are located in emerging market countries, or (iii) 50% or more of its revenues are derived from emerging market countries.

In addition to the Fund’s main investments, the Fund may invest no more than 20% of its net assets in the securities of issuers in developed market countries.

Fund investment performance will be derived primarily from stock selection. Security selection will be based upon an analysis of certain valuation criteria, the quality of a company’s management and the unique competitive advantages of a company.

The Fund generally sells a stock when, in the portfolio managers’ opinion, there is a deterioration in the company’s fundamentals, the company fails to meet performance expectations, the stock achieves its target price, its earnings are disappointing or its revenue growth has slowed. The Fund may also sell a stock if the portfolio managers believe that negative country or regional factors may affect the company’s outlook, in the portfolio managers’ opinion, a superior investment opportunity arises or to meet cash requirements. The portfolio managers anticipate that the Fund will continue to hold securities of companies that grow or expand so long as the portfolio managers believe the securities continue to offer prospects of long-term growth. Some of the Fund’s investments may produce income, although income from dividends and interest will be incidental and not an important consideration in choosing investments. The Fund may engage in active and frequent trading to achieve its investment objective.

The Fund may, under unusual circumstances, invest in a single country or a limited number of countries. In addition, the Fund may invest in securities issued by smaller companies and in less seasoned issuers.

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT RISKS

Foreign Exposure Risk . The Fund normally has significant exposure to foreign markets as a result of its investments in non-U.S. securities, particularly investments in emerging markets, 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. The Fund’s investments in emerging market countries may involve risks greater than, or in addition to, the risks of investing in more developed countries.

Emerging Markets Risk . The risks of foreign investing mentioned above are heightened when investing in emerging markets. Emerging markets securities involve a number of additional risks, which may result from 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, 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 the Fund’s investments. In addition, the Fund’s investments may be denominated in foreign currencies and therefore changes in the value of a country’s currency compared to the U.S. dollar may affect the value of the Fund’s investments. To the extent that the Fund invests a significant portion of its assets in the securities of issuers in or companies of a single country or region, it is more likely to be impacted by events or conditions affecting that country or region, which could have a negative impact on the Fund’s performance. Additionally, foreign and emerging market risks, including but not limited to price controls, expropriation or confiscatory taxation, imposition or enforcement of foreign ownership limits, nationalization, and restrictions on repatriation of assets may be heightened to the extent the Fund invests in Chinese local market securities. Some of the risks of investing directly in non-U.S. and emerging market securities may be reduced when the Fund invests indirectly in non-U.S. securities through various other investment vehicles.

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 or if the portfolio managers’ belief about a company’s intrinsic worth is incorrect. 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. Market risk may affect a single issuer, industry, economic sector, or the market as a whole.

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 U.S. federal income tax rates when distributed to shareholders.

Growth Securities Risk. The Fund may invest in companies that the portfolio managers believe have growth potential. Securities of companies perceived to be “growth” companies may be more volatile than other stocks and may involve special risks. If the portfolio managers’ perception of 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

11	Janus Henderson Emerging Markets Fund

favor depending on market and economic conditions, “growth” stocks may perform differently from the market as a whole and other types of securities.

Management Risk . The Fund is an actively managed investment portfolio and is therefore subject to the risk that the investment strategies employed for the Fund may fail to produce the intended results. The Fund may underperform its benchmark index or other mutual funds with similar investment objectives.

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.

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. 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.

These costs, which are not reflected in annual fund operating expenses or in the Example, affect the Fund’s performance. The portfolio turnover rate of Henderson European Focus Fund (the “Predecessor Fund”) and the Fund for the fiscal year August 1, 2016 to July 31, 2017 was 57% of the average value of the portfolio. The portfolio turnover rate of the Fund for the fiscal period August 1, 2017 to September 30, 2017 was 6% of the average value of the portfolio.

The Fund pursues its investment objective by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) in equity securities of European companies. Equity securities include common stocks and related securities, such as preferred stock, convertible securities, and depositary receipts. European companies are broadly defined to include any company that meets one or more of the following tests: (i) its country of organization, its primary business office and/or the principal trading market of its stock are located in Europe, (ii) 50% or more of its assets are located in Europe, or (iii) 50% or more of its revenues are derived from Europe.

The portfolio manager seeks investments that will increase in value by emphasizing stock selection and may invest in companies of any size, including through initial public offerings and private placements. Stock selection is based on an opportunistic approach which seeks to exploit stock specific criteria described below and particular investment factors in Europe that are expected to drive stock prices. The portfolio manager will invest in both “growth” stocks that the portfolio manager believes are reasonably priced and “value” stocks that are, in the portfolio manager’s opinion, undervalued.

Companies are evaluated using a broad range of criteria, including: (i) a company’s financial strength; (ii) competitive position in its industry; and (iii) projected future earnings and cash flows.

The Fund has no limits on the geographic asset distribution of its investments within Europe. The Fund may invest in companies located in Western European countries such as the United Kingdom, Belgium, Germany, Norway, the Netherlands, Denmark, Switzerland, Finland, Sweden, Portugal, France, Austria, Italy and Spain. The Fund may also invest in issuers located in Central and Eastern European countries such as Russia, Bulgaria, the Czech Republic, Turkey and Poland. The Fund may, under unusual circumstances, invest in a single country or a limited number of countries.

Country and sector allocation decisions are driven primarily by the stock selection process. However, in evaluating investment opportunities in various countries and sectors, the portfolio manager will consider: (i) the condition and growth potential of the various economies, industry sectors and securities markets; (ii) expected levels of inflation; (iii) government policies influencing business conditions; (iv) currency and taxation factors; and (v) other financial, social and political factors that may have an effect on the investment climate of the companies that are located in those markets.

The Fund generally sells a stock when, in the portfolio manager’s opinion, there is a deterioration in the company’s fundamentals, the company fails to meet performance expectations, the stock achieves its target price, its earnings are disappointing or its revenue growth has slowed. The Fund may also sell a stock if the portfolio manager believes that negative country or regional factors may affect the company’s outlook, in the portfolio manager’s opinion, a superior investment opportunity arises or to meet cash requirements. The portfolio manager anticipates that the Fund will continue to hold securities of companies that grow or expand so long as the portfolio manager believes the securities continue to offer prospects of long-term growth. Some of the Fund’s investments may produce income, although income from dividends and interest will be incidental and not an important consideration in choosing investments.

The Fund may invest its assets in derivatives, which are instruments that have a value derived from, or directly linked to, an underlying asset, such as equity securities, commodities, or currencies, as substitutes for securities in which the Fund invests. In particular, the Fund may invest in derivatives such as forward currency contracts to offset risks associated with currency exposure.

The Fund may engage in active and frequent trading to achieve its investment objective. The Fund does not limit its investments to companies of any particular size and may invest a significant portion of its assets in smaller and less seasoned issuers. However, in an attempt to reduce portfolio risks, the portfolio manager generally will invest across countries, industry groups and/or securities.

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 of European companies, 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 and derivatives that provide exposure to foreign markets, including investments in emerging markets, 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. 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. The Fund’s investments in emerging market countries may involve risks greater than, or in addition to, the risks of investing in more developed countries.

Geographic Concentration Risk. To the extent the Fund invests a substantial amount of its assets in issuers located in a single country or region, the economic, political, regulatory or other developments or conditions within such country or region will generally have a greater effect on the Fund than they would on a more geographically diversified fund, which may result in greater losses and volatility. This risk increases to the extent the Fund focuses on issuers in a limited number of countries in Europe. Western Europe has, in certain instances, been susceptible to serious financial hardship, high debt levels and high levels of unemployment. The European Union itself has experienced difficulties in connection with the debt loads of some of its member states. Although Western Europe is developed, recent economic hardship will pose investment risk in neighboring emerging nations.

18	Janus Henderson European Focus Fund

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 or if the portfolio manager’s belief about a company’s intrinsic worth is incorrect. 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. Market risk may affect a single issuer, industry, economic sector, or the market as a whole.

Emerging Markets Risk. The risks of foreign investing mentioned above are heightened when investing in emerging markets. Emerging markets securities involve a number of additional risks, which may result from 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, 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 the Fund’s investments. In addition, the Fund’s investments may be denominated in foreign currencies and therefore, changes in the value of a country’s currency compared to the U.S. dollar may affect the value of the Fund’s investments. To the extent that the Fund invests a significant portion of its assets in the securities of issuers in or companies of a single country or region, it is more likely to be impacted by events or conditions affecting that country or region, which could have a negative impact on the Fund’s performance. Some of the risks of investing directly in foreign and emerging market securities may be reduced when the Fund invests indirectly in foreign securities through various other investment vehicles including derivatives, which also involve other risks. As of September 30, 2017, approximately 2.8% of the Fund’s investments were in emerging markets (i.e. countries included in the MSCI Emerging Markets Index ^sm ).

19	Janus Henderson European Focus Fund

Growth Securities Risk. The Fund may invest in companies that the portfolio manager believes have growth potential. Securities of companies perceived to be “growth” companies may be more volatile than other stocks and may involve special risks. If the portfolio manager’s perception of 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.

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.

(1)	Fund returns calculated assuming maximum permitted sales loads.

(2)	The one year return is calculated to include the contingent deferred sales charge.

The Fund’s primary benchmark index is the MSCI Europe Index. The index is described below.

•	The MSCI Europe Index is a free float-adjusted market capitalization index that is designed to measure developed market equity performance in Europe. The performance of the Index is listed in U.S. dollars and assumes reinvestment of net dividends.

Prior to June 5, 2017, the Predecessor Fund used the MSCI Europe Index gross of foreign withholding taxes. Effective June 5, 2017, the Fund’s performance will be compared to the MSCI Europe Index net of foreign withholding taxes because it more closely reflects the Fund’s investment universe and is consistent with the practices of other funds advised by Janus Capital.

After-tax returns are calculated using distributions for the Predecessor Fund’s Class A Shares for the period prior to June 5, 2017. If Class A Shares of the Fund had been available during periods prior to June 5, 2017, the distributions used to calculate the after-tax returns may have been different. 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 table. 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 A Shares of the Fund. After-tax returns for the other classes of Shares will vary from those shown for Class A Shares due to varying sales charges (as applicable), fees, and expenses among the classes.

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. The portfolio turnover rate of Henderson Global Equity Income Fund (the “Predecessor Fund”) and the Fund for the fiscal year August 1, 2016 to July 31, 2017 was 127% of the average value of the portfolio. The portfolio turnover rate of the Fund for the fiscal period August 1, 2017 to September 30, 2017 was 21% of the average value of the portfolio.

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES

The Fund pursues its investment objectives by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) in a portfolio of income-producing equity securities, such as common and preferred dividend-paying stocks. The Fund invests in U.S. and non-U.S. issuers and will typically invest at least 40% of its net assets in securities of issuers or companies that are economically tied to different countries throughout the world, excluding the United States. The Fund has no specific policy on the number of different countries in which it will invest but intends to invest in at least three different countries.

In selecting investments, the portfolio managers primarily seek to identify companies with attractive long-term business prospects that generate cash and produce attractive levels of dividend income, and which are, in the opinion of the portfolio managers, undervalued or inexpensive relative to other similar investments. Security selection will be based upon an analysis of a broad range of appropriate value metrics, including price to earnings ratios, valuation relative to asset values, and a particular focus on cash flow generation and ability to service growing dividend streams in the medium term.

For its investments in common stocks, the Fund seeks to invest in securities that the portfolio managers believe have the potential for growth of income and capital over time. The portfolio managers may shift the Fund’s assets among various types of income-producing securities based on changing market conditions. The Fund may also invest in derivatives, equity real estate investment trusts (“REITs”) and preferred stocks.

Although the Fund does not have a specific policy regarding the growth/value orientation or market capitalization of the companies in which it invests, the portfolio managers believe that focusing on income-producing equity securities will tend to lead to investments in mid-to-large capitalization “value” stocks with a market capitalization greater than $3 billion (stocks of well-established, undervalued companies that the portfolio managers believe offer the potential for income and long term capital appreciation). The portfolio managers may, however, invest in smaller and less seasoned issuers.

The Fund may seek to enhance the level of dividend income it receives by engaging in regional rotation trading. In a regional rotation trade, the Fund would sell a stock that has declared its dividend and no longer trades with an entitlement to the dividend, and purchase a stock in another region that is about to declare a dividend (also known as a regional rotation strategy). By entering into a series of such trades, the Fund could augment the amount of dividend income it receives over the course of a year.

The Fund has no limits on the geographic asset distribution of its investments, but the Fund does not expect to invest more than 25% of its assets in securities of companies based in emerging markets. The Fund may invest in companies domiciled in any country that the portfolio managers believe to be appropriate to the Fund’s objectives. The Fund may, under unusual circumstances, invest in a single country or a limited number of countries. The Fund may invest in companies of any market capitalization.

The Fund will generally consider selling a security when, in the portfolio managers’ opinion, there is a risk of significant deterioration in the company’s fundamentals, or there is a change in business strategy or issuer-specific business outlook that affects the original investment case. The Fund will also consider selling a security if, in the portfolio managers’ opinion, a

25	Janus Henderson Global Equity Income Fund

superior investment opportunity arises. Also, the Fund may consider selling a security as part of the Fund’s regional rotation trading strategy.

The Fund may engage in active and frequent trading to achieve its investment objectives, and the Fund’s regional rotation strategy may increase the rate of portfolio turnover. In addition, frequently purchasing stocks in a short period prior to the ex-dividend date (the interval between the announcement and the payment of the next dividend) increases the amount of trading costs the Fund will incur and the potential for capital loss or gain, particularly in the event of significant short-term price movements of stocks subject to dividend capture trading. The Fund’s portfolio turnover rate may be 100% or more. The Fund does not limit its investments to companies of any particular size. However, in an attempt to reduce portfolio risks, the portfolio managers generally will invest across countries, industry groups and/or securities.

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 a global, income-producing equity portfolio, including common stocks. Common stocks tend to be more volatile than many other investment choices.

Emerging Markets Risk. The risks of foreign investing mentioned above are heightened when investing in emerging markets. Emerging markets securities involve a number of additional risks, which may result from 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, 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 the Fund’s investments. In addition, the Fund’s investments may be denominated in foreign currencies and therefore, changes in the value of a country’s currency compared to the U.S. dollar may affect the value of the Fund’s investments. To the extent that the Fund invests a significant portion of its assets in the securities of issuers in or companies of a single country or region, it is more likely to be impacted by events or conditions affecting that country or region, which could have a negative impact on the Fund’s performance. Some of the risks of investing directly in foreign and emerging market securities may be reduced when the Fund invests indirectly in foreign securities through various other investment vehicles including derivatives, which also involve other risks. As of September 30, 2017, approximately 3.8% of the Fund’s investments were in emerging markets (i.e. countries included in the MSCI Emerging Markets Index ^sm ).

26	Janus Henderson Global Equity Income Fund

continue to be undervalued by the market for long periods of time. It is also possible that a value stock will never appreciate to the extent expected by the portfolio managers.

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 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.

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.

The Fund’s primary benchmark index is the MSCI World Index ^sm . The Fund also compares its performance to the MSCI World High Dividend Yield Index ^sm . The indices are described below.

•	The MSCI World Index ^sm is a free float-adjusted market capitalization weighted index that is designed to measure the equity market performance of developed market countries in North America, Europe, and the Asia/Pacific Region.
•	The MSCI World High Dividend Yield Index ^sm is designed to reflect the performance of the high dividend yield securities contained within the broader MSCI World Index ^sm . The index includes large- and mid-capitalization stocks from developed markets across the Americas, Asia-Pacific, and Europe.

Prior to June 5, 2017, the Predecessor Fund used the MSCI World Index ^sm and MSCI World High Dividend Yield Index ^sm , each gross of foreign withholding taxes. Effective June 5, 2017, the Fund’s performance is compared to the MSCI World Index ^sm and MSCI World High Dividend Yield Index ^sm , each net of foreign withholding taxes, because they more closely reflect the Fund’s investment universe and are consistent with the practices of other funds advised by Janus Capital.

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES

The Fund pursues its investment objective by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) in securities of companies that the portfolio managers believe have a life science orientation. In the Fund’s pursuit of companies with a life science orientation, the Fund has a fundamental policy to normally invest at least 25% of its total assets in securities of companies that are categorized in the “life sciences” sector, which may include companies in the following industry groups: pharmaceutical; biotechnology; health care services; and medical devices. Generally speaking, the “life sciences” relate to maintaining or improving quality of life. So, for example, companies with a “life science orientation” include companies engaged in research, development, production, or distribution of products or services related to health and personal care, medicine, or pharmaceuticals. The Fund implements its investment policies by investing primarily in equity securities of U.S. and foreign companies selected for their growth potential. The Fund normally invests in issuers from several different countries, which may include the United States. The Fund may, under unusual circumstances, invest in a single country. The Fund may have significant exposure to emerging markets. The Fund may also invest in U.S. and foreign debt securities. The Fund may invest in shares of companies through initial public offerings.

The Fund may invest its assets in derivatives, which are instruments that have a value derived from, or directly linked to, an underlying asset, such as equity securities, fixed-income securities, commodities, currencies, interest rates, or market indices, as substitutes for securities in which the Fund invests. For purposes of meeting its 80% investment policy, the Fund may include derivatives that have characteristics similar to the securities in which the Fund may directly invest. The Fund may invest in derivative instruments (by taking long and/or short positions) such as options and forward exchange contracts for different purposes, including hedging (to offset risks associated with an investment, currency exposure, or market conditions) and to earn income and enhance returns.

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

Concentration Risk. The Fund focuses its investments in securities of companies that are categorized in the “life sciences” sector, including companies in the pharmaceutical, biotechnology, health care services, and medical device industries. Because of this, companies in the Fund’s portfolio may share common characteristics and may be more sensitive to changes in government funding or subsidies, new or anticipated legislative changes, or technological advances. As a result, the Fund may be subject to greater risks and its net asset value may fluctuate more than a fund that does not concentrate its investments.

34	Janus Henderson Global Life Sciences Fund

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. 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. The Fund’s investments in emerging market countries may involve risks greater than, or in addition to, the risks of investing in more developed countries.

35	Janus Henderson Global Life Sciences 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 T Shares (formerly named Class J Shares, the initial share class) of the Fund commenced operations with the Fund’s inception. Class A Shares, Class C Shares, Class S Shares, and Class I Shares of the Fund commenced operations on July 6, 2009. Class N Shares of the Fund commenced operations on January 26, 2018.

•	The performance shown for Class T Shares is calculated using the fees and expenses of Class T Shares in effect during the periods shown, net of any applicable fee and expense limitations or waivers.
•	The performance shown for Class A Shares, Class C Shares, and Class S Shares for periods prior to July 6, 2009, reflects the performance of the Fund’s former Class J Shares, calculated using the fees and expenses of each respective share class, without the effect of any fee and expense limitations or waivers.
•	The performance shown for Class I Shares for periods prior to July 6, 2009, reflects the performance of the Fund’s former Class J Shares, calculated using the fees and expenses of Class J Shares, net of any applicable fee and expense limitations or waivers.

•	The performance shown for Class N Shares for periods prior to December 31, 2017, reflects the performance of the Fund’s Class T Shares, calculated using the fees and expenses of Class T Shares, net of any applicable fee and expense limitations or waivers.

If Class A Shares, Class C Shares, Class S Shares, and Class I Shares of the Fund had been available during periods prior to July 6, 2009 or Class N Shares of the Fund had been available during periods prior to December 31, 2017, the performance shown for each respective share class may have been different. The performance shown for periods following the Fund’s commencement of Class A Shares, Class C Shares, Class S Shares, Class I Shares, and Class N Shares reflects the fees and expenses of each respective share class, net of any applicable fee and expense limitations or waivers.

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES

The Fund pursues its investment objective by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) in equity 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, real estate investment trusts (“REITs”) and similar REIT-like entities, such as foreign entities that have REIT characteristics. From time to time, the Fund may invest in shares of companies through initial public offerings.

As a fundamental policy, the Fund will concentrate 25% or more of its net assets in securities of issuers in real estate or real estate-related industries. The Fund’s investment in companies engaged in businesses outside the real estate industry which possess significant real estate holdings will be deemed to be in the real estate industry for purposes of the Fund’s investment objective and its policy on industry concentration.

Real estate-related industries are comprised of companies that, in the opinion of the portfolio managers, at the time of investment, generally (i) derive at least 50% of their revenue from ownership, construction, extraction, financing, management, operation, sales or development of real estate, or from businesses which have a clear relationship to these activities; (ii) have at least 50% of their assets in real estate; or (iii) have more than 50% of their net asset value accounted for by real estate.

A REIT is a company dedicated to owning, and usually operating, income-producing real estate, or to financing real estate. REITs pool investors’ funds for investment primarily in income-producing real estate or real estate-related loans or interests. Under the Internal Revenue Code, a REIT is not taxed on income it distributes to its shareholders if it complies with several requirements relating to its organization, ownership, assets and income, and a requirement that it generally distributes to its shareholders at least 90% of its taxable income (other than net capital gains) for each taxable year.

The Fund also invests in non-U.S. real estate and real estate-related companies. The Fund expects under normal market conditions to maintain investments in issuers that are economically tied to different countries throughout the world, including the United States. The Fund may also invest in companies or issuers that are economically tied to emerging markets. Under unusual circumstances, the Fund may invest all of its assets in a single country.

In choosing investments for the Fund, the portfolio managers apply a “bottom up” approach that utilizes the portfolio managers’ knowledge of issuers in the Americas and the Asia Pacific and European regions. The portfolio managers may also apply a “top down” analysis of property markets and sectors, economics, and capital markets in seeking to limit the Fund’s exposures to various risks.

include derivatives that have characteristics similar to the securities in which the Fund may directly invest. In particular, the Fund may use forward currency contracts to offset risks associated with currency exposure.

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 interested in investments focused in the real estate industry or real estate-related industries, including common stocks. Common stocks tend to be more volatile than many other investment choices.

Real Estate Securities Risk. An investment in the Fund may be subject to many of the same risks as a direct investment in real estate. 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 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.

Concentration Risk. Since the Fund concentrates its assets in the real estate or real estate-related industry, an investment in the Fund will be closely linked to performance of the real estate markets. As a result, the Fund may be subject to greater risks and its net asset value may fluctuate more than a fund that does not concentrate its investments.

Foreign Exposure Risk. The Fund normally has significant exposure to foreign markets as a result of its investments in foreign securities, including investments in emerging markets, 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. The Fund’s investments in emerging market countries may involve risks greater than, or in addition to, the risks of investing in more developed countries.

Emerging Markets Risk. The risks of foreign investing mentioned above are heightened when investing in emerging markets. Emerging markets securities involve a number of additional risks, which may result from 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, 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 the Fund’s investments. In addition, the Fund’s investments may be denominated in foreign currencies and therefore, changes in the value of a country’s currency compared to the U.S. dollar may affect the value of the Fund’s investments. To the extent that the Fund invests a significant portion of its assets in the securities of issuers in or companies of a single country or region, it is more likely to be impacted by events or conditions affecting that country or region, which could have a negative impact on the Fund’s performance. Some of the risks of investing directly in foreign and emerging market securities may be reduced when the Fund invests indirectly in foreign securities through various other investment vehicles including derivatives, which also involve other risks. As of September 30, 2017, approximately 7.7% of the Fund’s investments were in emerging markets (i.e. countries included in the MSCI Emerging Markets Index ^sm ).

investment may fall, sometimes sharply, in response to changes in the market, and you could lose money. Market risk may affect a single issuer, industry, economic sector, or the market as a whole.

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 Global Real Estate Fund (the “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 January 26, 2018.

•

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.

•

The performance shown for Class N Shares for periods prior to December 31, 2017, reflects the performance of the Fund’s Class I Shares from July 6, 2009, 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, 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 T Shares of the Fund had been available during periods prior to July 6, 2009 or Class N Shares of the Fund had been available during periods prior to December 31, 2017, 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, Class N 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. 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.

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES

The Fund pursues its investment objective by investing primarily in common stocks selected for their growth potential. The Fund may invest in companies of any size located anywhere in the world, from larger, well-established companies to smaller, emerging growth companies. The Fund typically invests at least 40% of its net assets in securities of issuers or companies that are economically tied to different countries throughout the world, excluding the United States. The Fund may have significant exposure to emerging markets. Because the Fund’s investments in foreign securities are partially based on the composition of the Fund’s benchmark index, the MSCI World Index ^sm , the Fund’s exposure to foreign markets may fluctuate in connection with variations in the foreign exposure of the benchmark index. The Fund may also invest in foreign equity and debt securities.

Janus Capital’s equity research analysts, overseen by the Portfolio Oversight Team led by Janus Capital’s Director of Research Carmel Wellso (the “Research Team”), select investments for the Fund that represent the Research Team’s high-conviction investment ideas in all market capitalizations, styles, and geographies. The Research Team, comprised of sector specialists, conducts fundamental analysis with a focus on “bottom up” research, quantitative modeling, and valuation analysis. Using this research process, analysts rate their stocks based upon attractiveness. Analysts bring their high-conviction ideas to their respective sector teams. Sector teams compare the appreciation and risk potential of each of the team’s high-conviction ideas and construct a sector portfolio that is intended to maximize the best risk-reward opportunities.

The Fund may also invest its assets in derivatives, which are instruments that have a value derived from, or directly linked to, an underlying asset, such as equity securities, fixed-income securities, commodities, currencies, interest rates, or market indices. The types of derivatives in which the Fund may invest include options, forward currency contracts, and swaps. The Fund may use derivatives to manage the Fund’s equity exposure, to offset risks associated with an investment, currency exposure, or market conditions, to hedge currency exposure relative to the Fund’s benchmark index, and to gain access to markets where direct investment may be restricted or unavailable. The Fund may also hold derivatives, such as warrants, in connection with corporate actions.

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

Emerging Markets Risk. The risks of foreign investing mentioned above are heightened when investing in emerging markets. Emerging markets securities involve a number of additional risks, which may result from 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, 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 the Fund’s investments. In addition, the Fund’s investments may be denominated in foreign currencies and therefore, changes in the value of a country’s currency compared to the U.S. dollar may affect the value of the Fund’s investments. To the extent that the Fund invests a significant portion of its assets in the securities of issuers in or companies of a single country or region, it is more likely to be impacted by events or conditions affecting that country or region, which could have a negative impact on the Fund’s performance. Some of the risks of investing directly in foreign and emerging market securities may be reduced when the Fund invests indirectly in foreign securities through various other investment vehicles including derivatives, which also involve other risks. As of September 30, 2017, approximately 5.6% of the Fund’s investments were in emerging markets (i.e. countries included in the MSCI Emerging Markets Index ^sm ).

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 or if the investment personnel’s belief about a company’s intrinsic worth is incorrect. 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. Market risk may affect a single issuer, industry, economic sector, or the market as a whole.

49	Janus Henderson Global Research Fund

and there is no guarantee that a hedging strategy will work. While hedging can reduce or eliminate losses, it can also reduce or eliminate gains or cause losses if the market moves in a manner different from that anticipated by the Fund or if the cost of the derivative outweighs the benefit of the hedge.

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.

•	The performance shown for Class A Shares, Class C Shares, and Class S Shares for periods prior to July 6, 2009, reflects the performance of the Fund’s former Class J Shares, calculated using the fees and expenses of each respective share class, without the effect of any fee and expense limitations or waivers.
•	The performance shown for Class I Shares for periods prior to July 6, 2009, reflects the performance of the Fund’s former Class J Shares, calculated using the fees and expenses of Class J Shares, net of any applicable fee and expense limitations or waivers.

•	The performance shown for Class N Shares for periods prior to August 4, 2017, reflects the performance of the Fund’s Class T Shares, calculated using the fees and expenses of Class T Shares, net of any applicable fee and expense limitations or waivers.

•	The performance shown for Class R Shares for periods prior to March 15, 2013, reflects the performance of the Fund’s Class T Shares, calculated using the fees and expenses of Class R Shares, without the effect of any fee and expense limitations or waivers.

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE

Janus Henderson Global Select Fund seeks long-term growth of capital.

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 Henderson 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 142 of the Fund’s Prospectus and in the “Purchases” section on page 84 of the Fund’s Statement of Additional Information. In addition, please see Appendix A – Intermediary Sales Charge Waivers and Discounts. You may also incur brokerage commissions charged by your broker or financial intermediary when buying Class N Shares of the Fund that are not reflected in the table or in the example below.

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:

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES

The Fund pursues its investment objective by normally investing primarily in a core group of 40-70 domestic and foreign common stocks selected for their growth potential and normally investing at least 40% of its net assets in securities of issuers or companies that are economically tied to different countries throughout the world, excluding the United States. The Fund may invest in companies of any size throughout the world, from larger, well-established companies to smaller, emerging growth companies. The Fund may also invest in U.S. and foreign debt securities. The Fund may invest in emerging markets but will normally limit such investments to 30% of its net assets, measured at the time of purchase. As of September 30, 2017, the Fund held stocks of 65 companies. Of these holdings, 40 comprised approximately 77.06% of the Fund’s holdings.

The Fund may also take long or short positions in derivatives, which are instruments that have a value derived from, or directly linked to, an underlying asset, such as equity securities, fixed-income securities, commodities, currencies, interest rates, or market indices. The types of derivatives in which the Fund may invest include options, futures, swaps, warrants, and forward exchange contracts. The Fund may use derivatives to hedge, to earn income or enhance returns, as a substitute for securities in which the Fund invests, to increase or decrease the Fund’s exposure to a particular market, to adjust the Fund’s currency exposure relative to its benchmark index, to gain access to foreign markets where direct investment may be restricted or unavailable, or to manage the Fund’s risk profile.

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 invests primarily in common stocks, which tend to be more volatile than many other investment choices.

56	Janus Henderson Global Select Fund

investments in emerging market countries may involve risks greater than, or in addition to, the risks of investing in more developed countries.

Emerging Markets Risk. The risks of foreign investing mentioned above are heightened when investing in emerging markets. Emerging markets securities involve a number of additional risks, which may result from 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, 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 the Fund’s investments. In addition, the Fund’s investments may be denominated in foreign currencies and therefore, changes in the value of a country’s currency compared to the U.S. dollar may affect the value of the Fund’s investments. To the extent that the Fund invests a significant portion of its assets in the securities of issuers in or companies of a single country or region, it is more likely to be impacted by events or conditions affecting that country or region, which could have a negative impact on the Fund’s performance. Additionally, foreign and emerging market risks, including but not limited to price controls, expropriation or confiscatory taxation, imposition or enforcement of foreign ownership limits, nationalization, and restrictions on repatriation of assets may be heightened to the extent the Fund invests in Chinese local market securities. Some of the risks of investing directly in foreign and emerging market securities may be reduced when the Fund invests indirectly in foreign securities through various other investment vehicles including derivatives, which also involve other risks. As of September 30, 2017, approximately 15.8% of the Fund’s investments were in emerging markets (i.e. countries included in the MSCI Emerging Markets Index ^sm ).

57	Janus Henderson Global Select Fund

specific characteristics of each security. Fixed-income securities are also subject to credit risk, prepayment risk, valuation risk, extension risk, and liquidity risk. Credit risk is the risk that the credit strength of an issuer of a fixed-income security will weaken and/or that the issuer will be unable to make timely principal and interest payments and that the security may go into default. Prepayment risk is the risk that during periods of falling interest rates, certain fixed-income securities with higher interest rates, such as mortgage- and asset-backed securities, may be prepaid by their issuers thereby reducing the amount of interest payments. Valuation risk is the risk that one or more of the fixed-income securities in which the Fund invests are priced differently than the value realized upon such security’s sale. In times of market instability, valuation may be more difficult. Extension risk is the risk that borrowers may pay off their debt obligations more slowly in times of rising interest rates, which will lengthen the duration of the portfolio. Liquidity risk is the risk that fixed-income securities may be difficult or impossible to sell at the time that the portfolio managers would like or at the price the portfolio managers believe the security is currently worth.

Derivatives Risk. Derivatives can be highly volatile and involve risks in addition to the risks of the underlying referenced securities or asset. 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 the 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 the 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, the Fund would risk the loss of the net amount of the payments that it contractually is entitled to receive. To the extent the Fund enters into short derivative positions, the Fund may be exposed to risks similar to those associated with short sales, including the risk that the Fund’s losses are theoretically unlimited. The Fund may use derivatives, including forward exchange contracts, for hedging purposes. Hedging with derivatives may increase expenses, and there is no guarantee that a hedging strategy will work. While hedging can reduce or eliminate losses, it can also reduce or eliminate gains or cause losses if the market moves in a manner different from that anticipated by the Fund or if the cost of the derivative outweighs the benefit of the hedge.

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.

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES

The Fund pursues its investment objective by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) in securities of companies that the portfolio managers believe will benefit significantly from advances or improvements in technology. These companies generally fall into two categories:

•	companies that the portfolio managers believe have or will develop products, processes, or services that will provide significant technological advancements or improvements; and
•	companies that the portfolio managers believe rely extensively on technology in connection with their operations or services.

Some of the industries and companies likely to be represented in the Fund’s portfolio include e-commerce (companies doing business through the Internet); computer (hardware and software); communications (voice, data, and wireless); industrials; Internet (software, services, and infrastructure equipment); and media and entertainment.

The Fund implements this policy by investing primarily in equity securities of U.S. and foreign companies selected for their growth potential. The Fund typically invests at least 40% of its net assets in securities of issuers or companies that are economically tied to different countries throughout the world, excluding the United States. The Fund may, under unusual circumstances, invest in a single country. The Fund may have significant exposure to emerging markets. The Fund may also invest in U.S. and foreign debt securities. From time to time, the Fund may invest in shares of companies through initial public offerings.

The Fund may also take long or short positions in derivatives, which are instruments that have a value derived from, or directly linked to, an underlying asset, such as equity securities, fixed-income securities, commodities, currencies, interest rates, or market indices. For purposes of meeting its 80% investment policy, the Fund may include derivatives that have characteristics similar to the securities in which the Fund may directly invest. The types of derivatives in which the Fund may invest include options, futures, swaps, warrants, and forward currency contracts. The Fund may use derivatives to hedge, to earn income or enhance returns, as a substitute for securities in which the Fund invests, to increase or decrease the Fund’s exposure to a particular market, to adjust the Fund’s currency exposure relative to its benchmark index, to gain access to foreign markets where direct investment may be restricted or unavailable, or to manage the Fund’s risk profile.

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

Emerging Markets Risk. The risks of foreign investing mentioned above are heightened when investing in emerging markets. Emerging markets securities involve a number of additional risks, which may result from 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, 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 the Fund’s investments. In addition, the Fund’s investments may be denominated in foreign currencies and therefore, changes in the value of a country’s currency compared to the U.S. dollar may affect the value of the Fund’s investments. To the extent that the Fund invests a significant portion of its assets in the securities of issuers in or companies of a single country or region, it is more likely to be impacted by events or conditions affecting that country or region, which could have a negative impact on the Fund’s performance. Some of the risks of investing directly in foreign and emerging market securities may be reduced when the Fund invests indirectly in foreign securities through various other investment vehicles including derivatives, which also involve other risks. As of September 30, 2017, approximately 16.7% of the Fund’s investments were in emerging markets (i.e. countries included in the MSCI Emerging Markets Index ^sm ).

Industry Risk. Although the Fund does not concentrate its investments in specific industries or industry sectors, it may invest in companies related in such a way that they react similarly to certain market pressures. As a result, the Fund’s returns may be considerably more volatile than the returns of a fund that does not invest in similarly related companies.

64	Janus Henderson Global Technology Fund

and can therefore involve leverage. Leverage may cause the 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 the 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, the Fund would risk the loss of the net amount of the payments that it contractually is entitled to receive. To the extent the Fund enters into short derivative positions, the Fund may be exposed to risks similar to those associated with short sales, including the risk that the Fund’s losses are theoretically unlimited. The Fund may use derivatives, including forward exchange contracts, for hedging purposes. Hedging with derivatives may increase expenses, and there is no guarantee that a hedging strategy will work. While hedging can reduce or eliminate losses, it can also reduce or eliminate gains or cause losses if the market moves in a manner different from that anticipated by the Fund or if the cost of the derivative outweighs the benefit of the hedge.

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.

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES

The Fund pursues its investment objective by investing primarily in common stocks of companies of any size that are economically tied to countries throughout the world, including emerging markets. The Fund normally invests in issuers from several different countries, which may include the United States. The Fund may, under unusual circumstances, invest in a single country. The Fund may also invest in U.S. and foreign equity and debt securities. In addition, when the portfolio managers believe that market conditions are unfavorable for investing, or when they are otherwise unable to locate attractive investment opportunities, the Fund’s cash or similar investments may increase.

The Fund focuses on companies that have fallen out of favor with the market or that appear to be temporarily misunderstood by the investment community. The Fund’s portfolio managers generally look for companies with:

•	strong balance sheets and solid recurring free cash flows
•	attractive relative and absolute valuation ratios or that have underperformed recently
•	favorable reward to risk characteristics

The Fund may invest its assets in derivatives, which are instruments that have a value derived from, or directly linked to, an underlying asset, such as equity securities, fixed-income securities, commodities, currencies, interest rates, or market indices, as substitutes for securities in which the Fund invests. The Fund may invest in derivative instruments (by taking long and/or short positions) for different purposes, including hedging (to offset risks associated with an investment, currency exposure, or market conditions) and to earn income and enhance returns.

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT RISKS

70	Janus Henderson Global Value Fund

Emerging Markets Risk. The risks of foreign investing mentioned above are heightened when investing in emerging markets. Emerging markets securities involve a number of additional risks, which may result from 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, 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 the Fund’s investments. In addition, the Fund’s investments may be denominated in foreign currencies and therefore, changes in the value of a country’s currency compared to the U.S. dollar may affect the value of the Fund’s investments. To the extent that the Fund invests a significant portion of its assets in the securities of issuers in or companies of a single country or region, it is more likely to be impacted by events or conditions affecting that country or region, which could have a negative impact on the Fund’s performance. Some of the risks of investing directly in foreign and emerging market securities may be reduced when the Fund invests indirectly in foreign securities through various other investment vehicles including derivatives, which also involve other risks. As of September 30, 2017, approximately 6.6% of the Fund’s investments were in emerging markets (i.e. countries included in the MSCI Emerging Markets Index ^sm ).

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. It is also possible that a value stock will never appreciate to the extent expected by the portfolio managers. When the Fund’s investments in cash, cash equivalents, or similar investments increase due to a lack of favorable investment opportunities or other extraordinary factors, the Fund may not participate in market advances or declines to the same extent that it would if the Fund had been fully invested. The Fund may invest in securities such as repurchase agreements and other short-term debt obligations to generate return on its cash position.

71	Janus Henderson Global Value Fund

into default. Prepayment risk is the risk that during periods of falling interest rates, certain fixed-income securities with higher interest rates, such as mortgage- and asset-backed securities, may be prepaid by their issuers thereby reducing the amount of interest payments. Valuation risk is the risk that one or more of the fixed-income securities in which the Fund invests are priced differently than the value realized upon such security’s sale. In times of market instability, valuation may be more difficult. Extension risk is the risk that borrowers may pay off their debt obligations more slowly in times of rising interest rates, which will lengthen the duration of the portfolio. Liquidity risk is the risk that fixed-income securities may be difficult or impossible to sell at the time that the portfolio managers would like or at the price the portfolio managers believe the security is currently worth.

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 T Shares (formerly named Class J Shares, the initial share class) of the Fund commenced operations with the Fund’s inception. Class A Shares, Class C Shares, Class S Shares, and Class I Shares of the Fund commenced operations on July 6, 2009. Class N Shares of the Fund commenced operations on May 31, 2012.

•	The performance shown for Class T Shares is calculated using the fees and expenses of Class T Shares in effect during the periods shown, net of any applicable fee and expense limitations or waivers.
•	The performance shown for Class A Shares, Class C Shares, and Class S Shares for periods prior to July 6, 2009, reflects the performance of the Fund’s former Class J Shares, calculated using the fees and expenses of each respective share class, without the effect of any fee and expense limitations or waivers.
•	The performance shown for Class I Shares for periods prior to July 6, 2009, reflects the performance of the Fund’s former Class J Shares, calculated using the fees and expenses of Class J Shares, net of any applicable fee and expense limitations or waivers.
•	The performance shown for Class N Shares for periods prior to May 31, 2012, reflects the performance of the Fund’s Class T Shares, calculated using the fees and expenses of Class T Shares, net of any applicable fee and expense limitations or waivers.

If Class A Shares, Class C Shares, Class S Shares, and Class I Shares of the Fund had been available during periods prior to July 6, 2009, or Class N Shares of the Fund had been available during periods prior to May 31, 2012, the performance shown for each respective share class may have been different. The performance shown for periods following the Fund’s commencement of Class A Shares, Class C Shares, Class S Shares, Class I Shares, and Class N Shares reflects the fees and expenses of each respective share class, net of any applicable fee and expense limitations or waivers.

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. The portfolio turnover rate of Henderson International Opportunities Fund (the “Predecessor Fund”) and the Fund for the fiscal year August 1, 2016 to July 31, 2017 was 51% of the average value of the portfolio. The portfolio turnover rate of the Fund for the fiscal period August 1, 2017 to September 30, 2017 was 5% of the average value of the portfolio.

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES

The Fund pursues its investment objective by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 40% of its net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) in equity securities of non-U.S. companies and in at least three different countries. Equity securities include common stocks and related securities, such as preferred stock, convertible securities, and depositary receipts. Non-U.S. companies include companies in emerging market countries and are broadly defined to include any company that meets one of the following tests: (i) its country of organization, its primary business office and/or the principal trading market of its stock are located outside of the U.S., (ii) 50% or more of its assets are located in a country other than the U.S., or (iii) 50% or more of its revenues are derived from outside of the U.S.

Fund investment performance will be derived primarily from stock selection. A strategic asset allocation process will be a secondary contributor to the investment process. Security selection may be based upon an analysis of a company’s valuations relative to earnings forecasts or other valuation criteria, earnings growth prospects of a company, the quality of a company’s management and the unique competitive advantages of a company. Asset allocation will be reviewed regularly based upon strategic views related to the growth prospects, valuations and pricing associated with international equity regions. Assets of the Fund are allocated to teams of portfolio managers who have experience with respect to a particular geographic region or discipline.

The Fund generally sells a stock when, in the portfolio managers’ opinions, there is a deterioration in the company’s fundamentals, the company fails to meet performance expectations, the stock achieves its target price, its earnings are disappointing or its revenue growth has slowed. The Fund may also sell a stock if the portfolio managers believe that negative country or regional factors may affect the company’s outlook, in the portfolio managers’ opinion, a superior investment opportunity arises or to meet cash requirements. The portfolio managers anticipate that the Fund will continue to hold securities of companies that grow or expand so long as the portfolio managers believe the securities continue to offer prospects of long-term growth. Some of the Fund’s investments may produce income, although income from dividends and interest will be incidental and not an important consideration in choosing investments.

77	Janus Henderson International Opportunities Fund

The Fund may engage in active and frequent trading to achieve its investment objective. The Fund does not limit its investments to companies of any particular size and may invest a significant portion of its assets in smaller and less seasoned issuers. However, in an attempt to reduce portfolio risks, the portfolio managers generally will invest across countries, industry groups and/or sectors.

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 a global equity portfolio, including common stocks. Common stocks tend to be more volatile than many other investment choices.

Emerging Markets Risk. The risks of foreign investing mentioned above are heightened when investing in emerging markets. Emerging markets securities involve a number of additional risks, which may result from 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, 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 the Fund’s investments. In addition, the Fund’s investments may be denominated in foreign currencies and therefore, changes in the value of a country’s currency compared to the U.S. dollar may affect the value of the Fund’s investments. To the extent that the Fund invests a significant portion of its assets in the securities of issuers in or companies of a single country or region, it is more likely to be impacted by events or conditions affecting that country or region, which could have a negative impact on the Fund’s performance. Some of the risks of investing directly in foreign and emerging market securities may be reduced when the Fund invests indirectly in foreign securities through various other investment vehicles including derivatives, which also involve other risks. As of September 30, 2017, approximately 17.7% of the Fund’s investments were in emerging markets (i.e. countries included in the MSCI Emerging Markets Index ^sm ).

78	Janus Henderson International Opportunities Fund

more broadly. As the Fund’s portfolio becomes more concentrated, the Fund is less able to spread risk and potentially reduce the risk of loss and volatility.

79	Janus Henderson International Opportunities 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.

Returns of the Fund will be different from the Predecessor Fund as they have different expenses.

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. All figures assume reinvestment of dividends and

The Fund’s primary benchmark index is the MSCI EAFE ^® Index. The index is described below.

•	The MSCI EAFE ^® (Europe, Australasia, Far East) Index is a free float-adjusted market capitalization index designed to measure developed market equity performance. The MSCI EAFE ^® Index is composed of companies representative of the market structure of developed market countries.

Prior to June 5, 2017, the Predecessor Fund used the MSCI EAFE ^® Index gross of foreign withholding taxes. Effective June 5, 2017, the Fund’s performance will be compared to the MSCI EAFE ^® Index net of foreign withholding taxes because it more closely reflects the Fund’s investment universe and is consistent with the practices of other funds advised by Janus Capital.

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. The portfolio turnover rate of Henderson International Small Cap Fund (the “Predecessor Fund”) and the Fund for the fiscal period December 15, 2016 (commencement of operations) to July 31, 2017 was 69% of the average value of the portfolio. The portfolio turnover rate of the Fund for the fiscal period August 1, 2017 to September 30, 2017 was 18% of the average value of the portfolio.

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES

The Fund pursues its investment objective by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) in equity securities of non-U.S. small market capitalization (“small cap”) companies, from at least three different countries outside of the U.S. Equity securities include common stocks and related securities, such as preferred stocks, convertible securities and depositary receipts.

The Fund considers a small cap company to be one whose market capitalization, at the time of purchase, is within the range of capitalizations of companies in the MSCI EAFE ^® (Europe, Australasia and Far East) Small Cap Index. As of September 30, 2017, the MSCI EAFE ^® Small Cap Index included companies with market capitalizations between $440 million and $10.7 billion. Some companies may outgrow the definition of a small cap company or may no longer fall within the range of a reconstituted index after the Fund has purchased their securities. These companies will continue to be considered small cap for purposes of the Fund’s minimum 80% allocation to equity securities of non-U.S. small cap companies, including, with respect to subsequent purchases.

Non-U.S. companies are broadly defined to include any issuer that meets one of the following tests: (i) its country of organization, its primary business office or the principal trading market of its stock is located outside of the U.S., (ii) 50% or more of its assets are located in a country other than the U.S., or (iii) 50% or more of its revenues are derived from outside of the U.S.

Normally, the Fund’s investments will be allocated among Continental Europe, the United Kingdom, Japan and the markets of the Pacific Basin. The Fund invests primarily in developed-market countries but may invest up to 25% of its net assets in securities of issuers located in emerging markets. Emerging market countries are all countries represented by the MSCI Emerging Markets Index ^sm and/or those countries considered to be developing by the World Bank, the International Finance Corporation or the United Nations. These countries are typically located in the Asia-Pacific region, Eastern Europe, Central and South America, and Africa.

86	Janus Henderson International Small Cap Fund

proprietary analytical model is used to provide theoretical values for each stock in the investment universe and then ranks the stock according to its discount or premium. In assessing a company, four key components are considered: net asset value (“NAV”), current earnings, value of growth and dividends. From among those companies with the biggest discounts to fair value (based around the above factors), the portfolio managers seek to identify a portfolio of stocks that they believe are priced below their intrinsic worth and which offer the best potential to achieve the Fund’s investment objective. At the final stage, stocks are validated through fundamental analysis and bottom-up research for inclusion in the portfolio. The Fund generally sells a stock if, in the portfolio managers’ opinion, it no longer offers an attractive valuation. The Fund will also consider selling a security if, in the portfolio managers’ opinion, a superior investment opportunity arises. The Fund typically expects to maintain investments in a portfolio of between 70 and 100 stocks.

The Fund may invest without limit in foreign securities and has no specific policies on the geographic asset distribution or sector exposure of its investments. Instead, sector and geographic exposure are a function of stock-level opportunities. However, in an attempt to reduce portfolio risks, the portfolio managers generally will invest across countries, industry groups and/or sectors.

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 a non-U.S. equity portfolio, primarily in small cap companies, including common stocks. Common stocks tend to be more volatile than many other investment choices.

Small- and Mid-Sized Companies Risk . The Fund’s investments in securities issued by small- and mid-sized companies, which can include smaller, start-up companies offering emerging products or services, may involve greater risks than are customarily associated with larger, more established companies. For example, while small- and mid-sized companies may realize more substantial growth than larger or more established issuers, they may also suffer more significant losses as a result of their narrow product lines, limited operating history, greater exposure to competitive threats, limited financial resources, limited trading markets, and the potential lack of management depth. Securities issued by small- and mid-sized companies tend to be more volatile and somewhat more speculative than securities issued by larger or more established companies and may underperform as compared to the securities of larger or more established companies. These holdings are also subject to wider price fluctuations and tend to be less liquid than stocks of larger or more established companies, which could have a significant adverse effect on the Fund’s returns, especially as market conditions change.

Foreign Exposure Risk . The Fund normally has significant exposure to foreign markets as a result of its investments in foreign securities, including investments in emerging markets, 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. The Fund’s investments in emerging market countries may involve risks greater than, or in addition to, the risks of investing in more developed countries.

Sector Risk . At times, the Fund may have a significant portion of its assets invested in securities of companies conducting business within an economic sector. Companies in the same economic sector may be similarly affected by economic or market events, making the Fund more vulnerable to unfavorable developments in that economic sector than funds that invest more broadly. As the Fund’s portfolio becomes more concentrated, the Fund is less able to spread risk and potentially reduce the risk of loss and volatility.

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 or if the portfolio managers’ belief about a company’s intrinsic worth is incorrect. 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

87	Janus Henderson International Small Cap Fund

investment may fall, sometimes sharply, in response to changes in the market, and you could lose money. Market risk may affect a single issuer, industry, economic sector, or the market as a whole.

Nondiversification Risk . The Fund is classified as nondiversified under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. This gives the Fund’s portfolio managers more flexibility to hold larger positions in a smaller number of securities. As a result, an increase or decrease in the value of a single security held by the Fund may have a greater impact on the Fund’s net asset value and total return.

Emerging Markets Risk . The risks of foreign investing mentioned above are heightened when investing in emerging markets. Emerging markets securities involve a number of additional risks, which may result from 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, 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 the Fund’s investments. In addition, the Fund’s investments may be denominated in foreign currencies and therefore, changes in the value of a country’s currency compared to the U.S. dollar may affect the value of the Fund’s investments. To the extent that the Fund invests a significant portion of its assets in the securities of issuers in or companies of a single country or region, it is more likely to be impacted by events or conditions affecting that country or region, which could have a negative impact on the Fund’s performance. As of September 30, 2017, the Fund did not hold investments in emerging markets (i.e. countries included in the MSCI Emerging Markets Index ^sm ).

Liquidity Risk . The Fund may invest in securities or instruments that do not trade actively or in large volumes, and may make investments that are less liquid than other investments. Also, the Fund may make investments that may become less liquid in response to market developments or adverse investor perceptions. Investments that are illiquid or that trade in lower volumes may be more difficult to value. When there is no willing buyer and investments cannot be readily sold at the desired time or price, the Fund may have to accept a lower price or may not be able to sell the security or instrument at all. Investments in foreign securities, particularly those of issuers located in emerging market countries, tend to have greater exposure to liquidity risk than domestic securities. In unusual market conditions, even normally liquid securities may be affected by a degree of liquidity risk (i.e., if the number and capacity of traditional market participants is reduced). An inability to sell one or more portfolio positions can adversely affect the Fund’s value or prevent the Fund from being able to take advantage of other investment opportunities.

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

Predecessor Fund’s inception on December 15, 2016. Class A Shares, Class C Shares, Class S Shares, Class I Shares, and Class T Shares of the Fund commenced operations on June 5, 2017.

•	The performance shown for Class N Shares for periods prior to June 5, 2017 reflects the performance of Class R6 Shares of the Predecessor Fund and is calculated using the fees and expenses of R6 Shares of the Predecessor Fund, in effect during the periods shown, net of any applicable fee and expense limitations or waivers.
•	The performance shown for Class A Shares for periods prior to June 5, 2017 reflects the performance of Class R6 Shares of the Predecessor Fund, calculated using the estimated fees and expenses of Class A Shares, net of any fee and expense limitations or waivers.
•	The performance shown for Class C Shares for periods prior to June 5, 2017 reflects the performance of Class R6 Shares of the Predecessor Fund, calculated using the estimated fees and expenses of Class C Shares, net of any fee and expense limitations or waivers.
•	The performance shown for Class I Shares for periods prior to June 5, 2017 reflects the performance of Class R6 Shares of the Predecessor Fund, calculated using the estimated fees and expenses of Class I Shares, net of any fee and expense limitations or waivers.
•	The performance shown for Class S Shares for periods prior to June 5, 2017 reflects the performance of Class R6 Shares of the Predecessor Fund, calculated using the estimated fees and expenses of Class S Shares, net of any applicable fee and expense limitations or waivers.
•	The performance shown for Class T Shares for periods prior to June 5, 2017 reflects the performance of Class R6 Shares of the Predecessor Fund, calculated using the estimated fees and expenses of Class T Shares, net of any applicable fee and expense limitations or waivers.

Returns of the Fund will be different from the Predecessor Fund as they have different expenses.

The bar chart depicts the Fund’s performance during the period 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. 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.

taxes, because they more closely reflect the Fund’s investment universe and are consistent with the practices of other funds advised by Janus Capital.

After-tax returns are calculated using distributions for the Predecessor Fund’s Class R6 Shares for the period prior to June 5, 2017. If Class N Shares of the Fund had been available during periods prior to June 5, 2017, the distributions used to calculate the after-tax returns may have been different. 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 table. 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 N Shares of the Fund. After-tax returns for the other classes of Shares will vary from those shown for Class N Shares due to varying sales charges (as applicable), fees, and expenses among the classes.

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES

The Fund pursues its investment objective by investing primarily in common stocks of companies of any size that are economically tied to countries outside of the United States, including in emerging markets. The Fund normally invests in issuers from several different countries, but under unusual circumstances, may invest in a single country. The Fund may also invest in non-U.S. debt securities. In addition, when the portfolio managers believe that market conditions are unfavorable for investing, or when they are otherwise unable to locate attractive investment opportunities, the Fund’s cash or similar investments may increase.

•	strong balance sheets and solid recurring free cash flows
•	attractive relative and absolute valuation ratios or that have underperformed recently
•	favorable reward to risk characteristics

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT RISKS

standards), stock exchanges, brokers, and listed companies, 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 the Fund’s investments. In addition, the Fund’s investments may be denominated in foreign currencies and therefore, changes in the value of a country’s currency compared to the U.S. dollar may affect the value of the Fund’s investments. To the extent that the Fund invests a significant portion of its assets in the securities of issuers in or companies of a single country or region, it is more likely to be impacted by events or conditions affecting that country or region, which could have a negative impact on the Fund’s performance. As of September 30, 2017, approximately 9.6% of the Fund’s investments were in emerging markets (i.e. countries included in the MSCI Emerging Markets Index ^sm ).

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. 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. 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.

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES

The Fund pursues its investment objective by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) in securities of issuers or companies from countries outside of the United States. The Fund normally invests in securities of issuers from several different countries, excluding the United States. Although the Fund typically invests 80% or more of its assets in issuers that are economically tied to countries outside the United States, it also may normally invest up to 20% of its net assets, measured at the time of purchase, in U.S. issuers, and it may, under unusual circumstances, invest all or substantially all of its assets in a single country. The Fund may have significant exposure to emerging markets. The Fund typically invests in equity securities (such as stocks or any other security representing an ownership interest) but may also invest in U.S. and foreign debt securities.

The Fund may invest in 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.

The Fund may take long or short positions in derivatives, which are instruments that have a value derived from, or directly linked to, an underlying asset, such as equity securities, fixed-income securities, commodities, currencies, interest rates, or market indices. For purposes of meeting its 80% investment policy, the Fund may include derivatives that have characteristics similar to the securities in which the Fund may directly invest. The types of derivatives in which the Fund may invest include options, futures, swaps, warrants, and forward foreign currency exchange contracts. The Fund may use derivatives to hedge, to earn income or enhance returns, as a substitute for securities in which the Fund invests, to increase or decrease the Fund’s exposure to a particular market, to adjust the Fund’s currency exposure relative to its benchmark index, to gain access to foreign markets where direct investment may be restricted or unavailable, or to manage the Fund’s risk profile.

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

100	Janus Henderson Overseas Fund

Emerging Markets Risk. The risks of foreign investing mentioned above are heightened when investing in emerging markets. Emerging markets securities involve a number of additional risks, which may result from 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, 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 the Fund’s investments. In addition, the Fund’s investments may be denominated in foreign currencies and therefore, changes in the value of a country’s currency compared to the U.S. dollar may affect the value of the Fund’s investments. To the extent that the Fund invests a significant portion of its assets in the securities of issuers in or companies of a single country or region, it is more likely to be impacted by events or conditions affecting that country or region, which could have a negative impact on the Fund’s performance. Additionally, foreign and emerging market risks, including but not limited to price controls, expropriation or confiscatory taxation, imposition or enforcement of foreign ownership limits, nationalization, and restrictions on repatriation of assets may be heightened to the extent the Fund invests in Chinese local market securities. Some of the risks of investing directly in foreign and emerging market securities may be reduced when the Fund invests indirectly in foreign securities through various other investment vehicles including derivatives, which also involve other risks. As of September 30, 2017, approximately 27.8% of the Fund’s investments were in emerging markets (i.e. countries included in the MSCI Emerging Markets Index ^sm ).

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 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.

101	Janus Henderson Overseas Fund

Derivatives Risk. Derivatives can be highly volatile and involve risks in addition to the risks of the underlying referenced securities or asset. 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 the 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 the 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, the Fund would risk the loss of the net amount of the payments that it contractually is entitled to receive. To the extent the Fund enters into short derivative positions, the Fund may be exposed to risks similar to those associated with short sales, including the risk that the Fund’s losses are theoretically unlimited. The Fund may use derivatives, including forward currency contracts, for hedging purposes. Hedging with derivatives may increase expenses, and there is no guarantee that a hedging strategy will work. While hedging can reduce or eliminate losses, it can also reduce or eliminate gains or cause losses if the market moves in a manner different from that anticipated by the Fund or if the cost of the derivative outweighs the benefit of the hedge.

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.

Additional information about the Funds

Fees and expenses

Please refer to the following important information when reviewing the “Fees and Expenses of the Fund” table in each Fund Summary of the Prospectus. The fees and expenses shown were determined based on net assets as of the fiscal year ended September 30, 2017, except for Janus Henderson Emerging Markets Fund, Janus Henderson European Focus Fund, Janus Henderson Global Equity Income Fund, Janus Henderson International Opportunities Fund, and Janus Henderson International Small Cap Fund which were based on the fiscal period August 1, 2017 to September 30, 2017.

•	“Shareholder Fees” are fees paid directly from your investment and may include sales loads.
•	“Annual Fund Operating Expenses” are paid out of a Fund’s assets and include fees for portfolio management and administrative services, including recordkeeping, subaccounting, and other shareholder services. You do not pay these fees directly but, as the Example in each Fund Summary shows, these costs are borne indirectly by all shareholders.

•

The “Management Fee” is the investment advisory fee rate paid by each Fund to Janus Capital. Janus Henderson Asia Equity Fund, Janus Henderson Global Real Estate Fund, Janus Henderson Global Research Fund, Janus Henderson Global Value Fund, and Janus Henderson Overseas Fund each pay an investment advisory fee rate that adjusts up or down by a variable of up to 0.15% (assuming constant assets) on a monthly basis based upon the Fund’s performance relative to its benchmark index during a measurement period. This base fee rate, prior to any performance adjustment, is 0.92% for Janus Henderson Asia Equity Fund, 0.75% for Janus Henderson Global Real Estate Fund, 0.60% for Janus Henderson Global Research Fund, and 0.64% for each of Janus Henderson Global Value Fund and Janus Henderson Overseas Fund. Refer to “Management Expenses” in this Prospectus for additional information with further description in the Statement of Additional Information (“SAI”).

•	“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, Class R 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 acquired fund fees and expenses, which are indirect expenses a Fund may incur as a result of investing in shares of an underlying fund. “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. 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. Such amounts are less than 0.01%.
_°	for all classes, may include “Short Sale Dividend Expenses.” These expenses include dividends or interest on short sales, which are paid to the lender of borrowed securities, and stock loan fees, which are paid to the prime broker. Such expenses will vary depending on the short sale arrangement, whether the securities a Fund sells short pay dividends or interest, and the amount of such dividends or interest. While “Short Sale Dividend Expenses” include interest and dividends paid out on short positions and may include stock loan fees, they do not take into account the interest credit a

106	Janus Investment Fund

	Fund earns on cash proceeds of short sales held as collateral for short positions. 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.”
_°	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.

•

Janus Capital has contractually agreed to waive and/or reimburse certain Funds’ “Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses” to certain limits until at least February 1, 2019. The expense limits are described in the “Management Expenses” section of this Prospectus. Because a fee waiver will have a positive effect upon a fund’s performance, a fund that pays a performance-based investment advisory fee may experience a performance adjustment that is considered favorable to Janus Capital as a result of a fee waiver that is in place during the period when the performance adjustment applies.

•

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.

companies in which to invest. This means that they seek to identify individual companies with earnings growth potential that may not be recognized by the market at large or, with respect to Janus Henderson Global Value Fund and Janus Henderson International Value Fund, companies with products and services that give them a competitive advantage. The philosophy of the portfolio managers of Janus Henderson Global Value Fund and Janus Henderson International Value Fund is to weigh a security’s downside risk before considering its upside potential, which may help provide an element of capital preservation. Securities are generally selected on a security-by-security basis without regard to any predetermined allocation among countries or geographic regions. However, certain factors, such as expected levels of inflation, government policies influencing business conditions, the outlook for currency relationships, and prospects for economic growth among countries, regions, or geographic areas, may warrant greater consideration in selecting foreign securities. There are no limitations on the countries in which the Funds may invest, and the Funds may at times have significant exposure to emerging markets. The portfolio managers and/or investment personnel may sell a holding if, among other things, the security reaches the portfolio managers’ and/or investment personnel’s price target, if the company has a deterioration of fundamentals such as failing to meet key operating benchmarks, or if the portfolio managers and/or investment personnel find a better investment opportunity. The portfolio managers and/or investment personnel may also sell a Fund holding to meet redemptions.

Janus Henderson Global Value Fund and Janus Henderson International Value Fund emphasize investments in companies with attractive prices compared to their free cash flow. The portfolio managers will typically seek attractively valued companies that are improving their free cash flow and improving their returns on invested capital. A company may be considered attractively valued when, in the opinion of the portfolio managers, shares of the company are selling for a price that is below their intrinsic worth (“undervalued”). A company may be undervalued due to market or economic conditions, temporary earnings declines, unfavorable developments affecting the company, or other factors. Such factors may provide buying opportunities at attractive prices compared to historical or market price-earnings ratios, price/free cash flow, book value, or return on equity. The portfolio managers believe that buying these securities at a price that is below their intrinsic worth may generate greater returns for a Fund than those obtained by paying premium prices for companies currently in favor in the market.

Emerging Markets

Within the parameters of its specific investment policies, each Fund may invest 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 Index ^sm . For Janus Henderson Emerging Markets Fund and Janus Henderson International Small Cap Fund, such countries include any country that has been considered by the World Bank, the International Finance Corporation or the United Nations to be developing and/or any country that is included in the MSCI Emerging Markets Index ^sm , which measures the equity market performance of developing markets. Janus Henderson Global Select Fund will normally limit its investments in emerging market countries to 30% of its net assets.

High-Yield/High-Risk Bonds

A high-yield/high-risk bond (also known as a “junk” bond) is a bond rated below investment grade by major rating agencies (i.e., BB+ or lower by Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services (“Standard & Poor’s”) and Fitch, Inc. (“Fitch”), or Ba or lower by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (“Moody’s”)) or is an unrated bond of similar quality. It presents greater risk of default (the failure to make timely interest and principal payments) than higher quality bonds. To the extent a Fund invests in high-yield/high-risk bonds, under normal circumstances, each Fund, with the exception of Janus Henderson Asia Equity Fund, will limit its investments in high-yield/high-risk bonds to 35% or less of its net assets. Janus Henderson Asia Equity Fund will limit its investments in such bonds to 20% or less of its net assets.

Illiquid Investments

public. IPOs are often issued by smaller, younger companies seeking the capital to expand, but can also be done by large privately-owned companies looking to become publicly traded.

Nondiversification

Diversification is a way to reduce risk by investing in a broad range of stocks or other securities. Janus Henderson International Small Cap Fund is classified as “nondiversified.” A fund that is classified as “nondiversified” 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 which is classified as nondiversified more flexibility to focus its investments in companies that the portfolio managers 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 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. This fluctuation, if significant, may affect the performance of the fund.

Portfolio Turnover

Real Estate-Related Securities

Certain Funds may invest in 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. REITs are often categorized as equity REITs, mortgage REITs, and hybrid REITs. An equity REIT, the most common type of REIT, invests primarily in the fee ownership of land and buildings. An equity REIT derives its income primarily from rental income but may also realize capital gains or losses by selling real estate properties in its portfolio that have appreciated or depreciated in value. A mortgage REIT invests primarily in mortgages on real estate, which may secure construction, development, or long-term loans. A mortgage REIT generally derives its income from interest payments on the credit it has extended. A hybrid REIT combines the characteristics of equity REITs and mortgage REITs, generally by holding both ownership interests and mortgage interests in real estate.

Risks of the Funds

Concentration Risk. Janus Henderson Global Life Sciences Fund focuses its investments in “life sciences” related industry groups. Because of this, companies in its portfolio may share common characteristics and react similarly to market developments. For example, many companies with a life science orientation are highly regulated and may be dependent upon certain types of technology. Changes in government funding or subsidies, new or anticipated legislative changes, or technological advances could affect the value of such companies and, therefore, the Fund’s net asset value. As a result, the Fund may be subject to greater risks and its net asset value may fluctuate more than a fund that does not concentrate its investments. To the extent that the Fund invests in life sciences companies in the biotechnology sector, the Fund may be exposed to additional risks because these companies invest heavily in research and development, which may not necessarily lead to commercially successful products. In addition, biotechnology companies can be more volatile because they are subject to competitive pressures and are heavily dependent on patents on intellectual property rights.

Since Janus Henderson Global Real Estate Fund concentrates its assets in the real estate or real estate-related industry, an investment in the Fund will be closely linked to performance of the real estate markets. Unanticipated economic, legal, cultural, political, or other developments may cause property values to decline, REIT prices may drop, and changes in federal or state tax laws, may affect the value of the securities held by the Fund. Real estate-related companies are also generally sensitive to interest rates, cash flow of underlying real estate assets, supply and demand, and management skill and creditworthiness of the issuer. The Fund’s net asset value may fluctuate more than those of a fund that does not concentrate its investments.

111	Janus Investment Fund

include, but are not limited to, declines in the value of real property, risks related to general and local economic conditions, dependency on management skill, heavy cash flow dependency, adverse changes in the operations of any property or the financial condition of any tenant, possible lack of availability of mortgage funds, overbuilding, extended vacancies of properties, increased competition, increases in property taxes and operating expenses, changes in zoning laws, losses due to costs resulting from the clean-up of environmental problems, liability to third parties for damages resulting from environmental problems, casualty or condemnation losses, limitations on rents, changes in neighborhood values and in appeal of properties to tenants, and changes in interest rates.

112	Janus Investment Fund

•

Emerging Markets Risk. Within the parameters of its specific investment policies, each Fund may invest 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 Index ^sm . For Janus Henderson Emerging Markets Fund and Janus Henderson International Small Cap Fund, such countries include any country that has been considered by the World Bank, the International Finance Corporation or the United Nations to be developing and/or any country that is included in the MSCI Emerging Markets Index ^sm , which measures the equity market performance of developing markets. To the extent that a Fund invests a significant amount of its assets in one or more of these countries, its returns and net asset value may be affected to a large degree by events and economic conditions in such countries. The risks of foreign investing are heightened when investing in emerging markets, which may result in the price of investments in emerging markets experiencing 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. The securities markets of many of these countries 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 a Fund to obtain or to enforce a judgment against the issuers of such securities. In addition, a Fund’s investments may be denominated in foreign currencies and therefore, changes in the value of a country’s currency compared to the U.S. dollar may affect the value of the Fund’s investments. To the extent that a Fund invests a significant portion of its assets in the securities of issuers in or companies of a single country or region, it is more likely to be impacted by events or conditions affecting that country or region, which could have a negative impact on the Fund’s performance. A Fund may be subject to emerging markets risk to the extent that it invests 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. Additionally, foreign and emerging market risks, including but not limited to price controls, expropriation or confiscatory taxation, imposition or enforcement of foreign ownership limits, nationalization, and restrictions on repatriation of assets may be heightened to the extent a Fund invests in Chinese local market securities. Some of the risks of investing directly in foreign and emerging market securities may be reduced when a Fund invests indirectly in foreign securities through various other investment vehicles including derivatives, which also involve other risks.

113	Janus Investment Fund

voted to exit the EU (known as “Brexit”). There is considerable uncertainty about how Brexit will be conducted, how negotiations of necessary treaties and trade agreements will proceed, or how financial markets will react. In addition, one or more other countries may also abandon the euro and/or withdraw from the EU, placing its currency and banking system in jeopardy. 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.

Exchange-Traded Funds Risk. Certain Funds may invest in exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”) to gain exposure to a particular portion of the market. ETFs are typically open-end investment companies, which may seek to track the performance of a specific index or be actively managed. ETFs are traded on a national securities exchange at market prices that may vary from the net asset value of their underlying investments. Accordingly, there may be times when an ETF trades at a premium or discount. When a Fund invests in an ETF, in addition to directly bearing the expenses associated with its own operations, it will bear a pro rata portion of the ETF’s expenses. As a result, the cost of investing in a Fund may be higher than the cost of investing directly in ETFs and may be higher than other mutual funds that invest directly in stocks and bonds. ETFs also involve the risk that an active trading market for an ETF’s shares may not develop or be maintained. Similarly, because the value of ETF shares depends on the demand in the market, a Fund may not be able to purchase or sell an ETF at the most optimal time, which could adversely affect the Fund’s performance. In addition, ETFs that track particular indices may be unable to match the performance of such underlying indices due to the temporary unavailability of certain index securities in the secondary market or other factors, such as discrepancies with respect to the weighting of securities. To the extent a Fund invests in fixed-income ETFs, it will be indirectly exposed to the same risks described under “Fixed-Income Securities Risk.”

Fixed-Income Securities Risk. Certain Funds may hold debt and other fixed-income securities to generate income. Typically, the values of fixed-income securities change inversely with prevailing interest rates. Therefore, a fundamental risk of fixed-income securities is interest rate risk, which is the risk that the value of such securities will generally decline as prevailing interest rates rise, which may cause a Fund’s net asset value to likewise decrease. How specific fixed-income securities may react to changes in interest rates will depend on the specific characteristics of each security. For example, while securities with longer maturities and durations tend to produce higher yields, they also tend to be more sensitive to changes in prevailing interest rates and are therefore more volatile than shorter-term securities and are subject to greater market fluctuations as a result of changes in interest rates. However, calculations of maturity and duration may be based on estimates and may not reliably predict a security’s price sensitivity to changes in interest rates. In addition, different interest rate measures (such as short- and long-term interest rates and U.S. and non-U.S. interest rates), or interest rates on different types of securities or securities of different issuers, may not necessarily change in the same amount or in the same direction. During periods of very low or negative interest rates, a Fund may not be able to maintain positive returns.

114	Janus Investment Fund

higher degree of credit risk, valuation risk, and liquidity risk. To the extent that a Fund invests in derivatives tied to fixed-income securities, the Fund may be more substantially exposed to these risks than a fund that does not invest in such derivatives.

Foreign Exposure Risk. Each Fund invests in foreign equity and/or debt securities either indirectly (e.g., depositary receipts, depositary shares, and passive foreign investment companies) or directly in foreign markets, including emerging markets. With respect to investments in securities of issuers or companies that are economically tied to different countries throughout the world, securities may be deemed to be economically tied to a particular country based on such factors as the issuer’s country of incorporation, primary listing, and other factors including, but not limited to operations, revenues, headquarters, management, and shareholder base. 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

115	Janus Investment Fund

	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.

Geographic Concentration Risk. Because Janus Henderson Asia Equity Fund intends to focus its investments in a particular geographic region, the Fund’s performance is expected to be closely tied to various factors such as the social, financial, economic, and political conditions within that region or country. Specifically, the Fund’s investments in Asian issuers increase the Fund’s exposure to various risks including, but not limited to, risks associated with volatile securities markets, currency fluctuations, social, political, and regulatory developments, economic environmental events (such as natural disasters), and changes in tax or economic policies, each of which, among others, may be particular to Asian countries or the region.

Because of the Fund’s investment focus on Asian issuers, its investments will be more sensitive to social, financial, economic, political, and regulatory developments affecting the fiscal stability of a particular country and/or the broader region. Events that negatively affect the fiscal stability of a particular country and/or the broader region may cause the value of the Fund’s holdings to decrease, in some cases significantly. As a result, the Fund is likely to be more volatile than a fund that is more geographically diverse in its investments.

The Asian region within which the Fund will focus its investments comprises countries in various stages of economic and political development. As a result, some countries may have relatively unstable governments or may experience adverse conditions such as overextension of credit, currency devaluations and restrictions, less efficient markets, rising unemployment, high inflation, underdeveloped financial services sectors, heavy reliance on international trade, prolonged economic recessions, and political instability, including military disruption, which could result in significant downturns and volatility in the economies of Asian countries, and therefore, have an adverse effect on the value of the Fund’s portfolio. Certain Asian countries may be vulnerable to trade barriers and other protectionist measures. Some countries have restricted the flow of money in and out of the country. Further, if Asian securities fall out of favor, it may cause the Fund to underperform funds that do not focus their investments in a single region of the world.

It is also possible that from time to time, a small number of companies and industries may represent a large portion of the market in a particular country or region, and these companies and industries can be sensitive to social, financial, economic, political, and regulatory developments. The economies of the Asian countries in which the Fund invests may be interdependent, which could increase the possibility that conditions in one country will adversely impact the issuers of securities in a different country or region, or that the impact of such conditions will be experienced at the same time by the region as a whole. Likewise, the economies of the Asian region may also be dependent on the economies of other countries, such as the United States and Europe, and events in these economies could negatively impact the economies of the Asian region.

The trading volume on some Asian stock exchanges tends to be much lower than in the United States, and Asian securities of some companies are less liquid and more volatile than similar United States securities, which could lead to a significant possibility of loss to the Fund. In addition, brokerage commissions on regional stock exchanges are fixed and are generally higher than the negotiated commissions in the United States.

116	Janus Investment Fund

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 or economic sector may increase that Fund’s exposure to industry risk. In the life sciences, for example, many companies are subject to government regulation and approval of their products and services, which may affect their price or availability. In addition, the products and services offered by these companies may quickly become obsolete in the face of scientific or technological developments. The economic outlook of such companies may fluctuate dramatically due to changes in regulatory or competitive environments. Similarly, in technology-related industries, competitive pressures may have a significant effect on the performance of companies in which a Fund may invest. In addition, technology and technology-related companies often progress at an accelerated rate, and these companies may be subject to short product cycles and aggressive pricing, which may increase their volatility.

Janus Henderson Global Life Sciences Fund invests in a concentrated portfolio, which may result in greater exposure to related industries. As a result, the Fund may be subject to greater risks and its net asset value may fluctuate more than a fund that does not concentrate its investments.

Further, investments in the real estate industry, for example, are closely linked to the performance of the real estate markets. Because Janus Henderson Global Real Estate Fund concentrates its assets in the real estate industry, the Fund may be subject to risks similar to those associated with the direct ownership of real property (in addition to securities market risks).

Interest Rate Risk. Generally, a fixed-income security, and to a lesser degree common stock of REITs, will increase in value when prevailing interest rates fall and decrease in value when prevailing interest rates rise. Longer-term securities are generally more sensitive to interest rate changes than shorter-term securities, but they generally offer higher yields to compensate investors for the associated risks. High-yield bond prices and floating rate debt security prices are generally less directly responsive to interest rate changes than investment grade issues or comparable fixed rate securities, and may not always follow this pattern. A Fund may use futures, swaps, options, and other derivatives to manage interest rate risk. The income component of a Fund’s holdings may include fixed-income securities and REITs.

117	Janus Investment Fund

Nondiversification Risk. Janus Henderson International Small Cap Fund is classified as nondiversified under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and may hold a greater percentage of its assets in a smaller number of issuers. As a result, an increase or decrease in the value of a single security held by the Fund may have a greater impact on the Fund’s net asset value and total return. Being nondiversified may also make the Fund more susceptible to financial, economic, political, or other developments that may impact a security. Although the Fund may satisfy the requirements for a diversified fund, and has from time to time operated as diversified, the Fund’s nondiversified classification gives the Fund’s portfolio managers more flexibility to hold larger positions in a smaller number of securities than a fund that is classified as diversified. The Fund’s policy of concentrating its portfolio in a smaller number of holdings could result in more volatility in the Fund’s performance and share price.

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. An investment in Janus Henderson Global Real Estate Fund shares represents an indirect investment in real estate-related securities owned by the Fund. 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

118	Janus Investment Fund

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, such as Janus Henderson Global Real Estate Fund, it may be subject to the additional risks associated with investments in REITs. 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.

Reverse Repurchase Agreement Risk. Reverse repurchase agreements are transactions in which a Fund sells a 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 repurchase price consists of the sale price plus an incremental amount reflecting the interest cost to the Fund on the proceeds it has received from the initial sale. Reverse repurchase agreements involve the risk that the value of securities that a Fund is obligated to repurchase under the agreement may decline below the repurchase price. Additionally, 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. Interest costs on the proceeds received in a reverse repurchase agreement may exceed the return received on the investments made by a Fund with those proceeds, resulting in reduced returns to shareholders. When a Fund enters into a reverse repurchase agreement, it is subject to the risk that the buyer (counterparty) may default on its obligations to the Fund. In the event of such a default, the Fund may experience delays, costs, and losses, all of which may reduce returns to shareholders. Investing reverse repurchase proceeds may also have a leveraging effect on a Fund’s portfolio. A Fund’s use of leverage can magnify the effect of any gains or losses, causing the Fund to be more volatile than if it had not been leveraged. There is no assurance that any leveraging strategy used by a Fund will be successful.

119	Janus Investment Fund

entity that controls the repayment of sovereign debt may not be willing or able to repay the principal and/or to pay the interest on its sovereign debt in a timely manner. A sovereign debtor’s willingness or ability to satisfy its debt obligation may be affected by various factors, including its cash flow situation, the extent of its foreign currency reserves, the availability of foreign exchange when a payment is due, the relative size of its debt position in relation to its economy as a whole, the sovereign debtor’s policy toward international lenders, and local political constraints to which the governmental entity may be subject. Sovereign debtors may also be dependent on expected disbursements from foreign governments, multilateral agencies, and other entities. The failure of a sovereign debtor to implement economic reforms, achieve specified levels of economic performance, or repay principal or interest when due may result in the cancellation of third party commitments to lend funds to the sovereign debtor, which may further impair such debtor’s ability or willingness to timely service its debts. A Fund may be requested to participate in the rescheduling of such sovereign debt and to extend further loans to governmental entities, which may adversely affect the Fund’s holdings. In the event of default, there may be limited or no legal remedies for collecting sovereign debt and there may be no bankruptcy proceedings through which the Fund may collect all or part of the sovereign debt that a governmental entity has not repaid. In addition, to the extent a Fund invests in non-U.S. sovereign debt, it may be subject to currency risk.

Fund Name	Benchmark Index
Janus Henderson Global Research Fund	MSCI World Index ^sm ⁽¹⁾
Janus Henderson Global Real Estate Fund	FTSE EPRA/NAREIT Global Index

Conflicts of Interest

Janus Capital and Perkins 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 Henderson 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 Capital “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 Capital “funds of funds” and the Janus Henderson funds, it is subject to certain potential conflicts of interest when allocating the assets of a Janus Capital “fund of funds” among such Janus Henderson funds. To the extent that a Fund is an underlying fund in a Janus Capital “fund of funds,” a potential conflict of interest arises when allocating the assets of the Janus Capital “fund of funds” to that Fund. Purchases and redemptions of fund shares by a Janus Capital “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. In addition, redemptions by a Janus Capital “fund of funds” could cause actual expenses to increase, or could result in a Fund’s current expenses being allocated over a smaller asset base, which may lead to an increase in the Fund’s expense ratio. The impact of these transactions is likely to be greater when a Janus Capital “fund of funds” purchases, redeems, or owns a substantial portion of a Fund’s shares. 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.

Other information

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 a closed fund’s prospectuses and in the “Shares of the Trust” section of the SAI.

DISTRIBUTION OF THE FUNDS

Distributions and taxes

Distributions

Distribution Schedule

Dividends from net investment income for Janus Henderson Global Equity Income Fund and Janus Henderson Global Real Estate Fund are normally declared and distributed in March, June, September, and December. 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

“Buying a Dividend”

TAXES

Taxes on Distributions

133	Janus Investment Fund

income includes dividends paid by a Fund and capital gains from any sale or exchange 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. Please note that you may receive account tax information from Janus Henderson Global Real Estate Fund at the end of February of each year. REITs typically recharacterize a portion of the dividends paid during the year from ordinary income to capital gain and/or return of capital (which could relate to depreciation on real estate). The information regarding this recharacterization is generally not made available by the REIT until late January. Therefore, the actual composition of the Fund’s distributions during a year may change substantially subsequent to year-end. To the extent these changes occur, they may have the effect of reducing the net investment income component of the Fund’s distributions and increasing the capital gains and/or return of capital components.

Shareholder communications

Statements and Reports

Your financial intermediary or plan sponsor (or Janus Capital, if you hold Class I Shares or Class N 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 Capital) to obtain these reports. The Funds’ fiscal year ends September 30. Each of Janus Henderson Emerging Markets Fund, Janus Henderson European Focus Fund, Janus Henderson Global Equity Income Fund, Janus Henderson International Opportunities Fund, and Janus Henderson International Small Cap Fund has changed its fiscal year end to September 30 in order to align its fiscal year end and reporting cycle with that of other funds in the fund complex. In order to implement this change, each Fund operated in a two-month stub period from August 1, 2017 to September 30, 2017 and then began a new fiscal year on October 1, 2017.

Management Fees (may adjust up or down)	1.00%
Other Expenses	1.19%
Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses ⁽¹⁾	2.19%
Fee Waiver ⁽¹⁾	0.85%
Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses After Fee Waiver ⁽¹⁾	1.34%

(1)

Janus Capital has contractually agreed to waive its investment advisory fee and/or reimburse operating expenses to the extent that the Fund’s total annual fund operating expenses (excluding any performance adjustments to management fees, administrative services fees (including out-of-pocket costs), brokerage commissions, interest, dividends, taxes, acquired fund fees and expenses, and extraordinary expenses) exceed 1.11% until at least February 1, 2019. The contractual waiver may be terminated or modified prior to this date only at the discretion of the Board of Trustees.

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, reinvest all dividends and distributions, and then redeem all of your Shares at the end of each period. The Example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund’s operating expenses without waivers remain the same. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES

The Fund pursues its investment objective by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) in equity securities of Asian issuers (excluding Japanese issuers). An Asian issuer is generally considered to be any company that (i) is incorporated or has its principal business activities in an Asian country; (ii) is primarily listed on the trading market of an Asian country; or (iii) derives 50% or more of its revenue from, or has 50% or more of its assets in, one or more Asian countries. The Fund considers “Asian countries” to include, but not be limited to, Hong Kong, China, South Korea, Taiwan, Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia, Philippines, India, Vietnam, Pakistan, and Sri Lanka. Some of these countries may represent developing or emerging markets. The Fund may have significant exposure to emerging market countries. Subject to the Fund’s 80% investment policy, the Fund may also invest in issuers from other countries, including Australia and New Zealand.

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. The bar chart depicts the change in performance from year to year during the periods indicated. The table compares the Fund’s average annual returns for the periods indicated to broad-based securities market indices. 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.

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.

ANNUAL FUND OPERATING EXPENSES (expenses that you pay each year as a percentage of the value of your investment)		Class D
Management Fees		1.00%
Other Expenses ⁽¹⁾		0.38%
Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses ⁽²⁾		1.38%
Fee Waiver ⁽²⁾		0.19%
Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses After Fee Waiver ⁽²⁾		1.19%

(1)	Other Expenses have been restated to reflect the estimated expenses that the Fund expects to incur.

(2)

Janus Capital has contractually agreed to waive its investment advisory fee and/or reimburse operating expenses to the extent that the Fund’s total annual fund operating expenses (excluding administrative services fees (including out-of-pocket costs), brokerage commissions, interest, dividends, taxes, acquired fund fees and expenses, and extraordinary expenses) exceed 1.03% until at least February 1, 2019. The contractual waiver may be terminated or modified prior to this date only at the discretion of the Board of Trustees.

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, reinvest all dividends and distributions, and then redeem all of your Shares at the end of each period. The Example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund’s operating expenses without waivers remain the same. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

	1 Year	3 Years	5 Years	10 Years
Class D Shares	$ 140	$ 437	$ 755	$ 1,657

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. The portfolio turnover rate of Henderson Emerging Markets Fund (the “Predecessor Fund”) and the Fund for the fiscal year August 1, 2016 to July 31, 2017 was 32% of the average value of the portfolio. The portfolio turnover rate of the Fund for the fiscal period August 1, 2017 to September 30, 2017 was 2% of the average value of the portfolio.

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES

The Fund pursues its investment objective by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) in equity securities of companies in emerging market countries. Equity securities include common stocks and related securities, such as preferred stock, convertible securities and depositary receipts. Emerging market countries are all countries represented by the MSCI Emerging Markets Index ^sm and/or those countries considered to be developing by the World Bank, the International Finance Corporation or the United Nations. These countries typically are located in the Asia-Pacific region, Eastern Europe, Central and South America, and Africa.

7	Janus Henderson Emerging Markets Fund

In addition to the Fund’s main investments, the Fund may invest no more than 20% of its net assets in the securities of issuers in developed market countries.

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT RISKS

Foreign Exposure Risk. The Fund normally has significant exposure to foreign markets as a result of its investments in non-U.S. securities, particularly investments in emerging markets, 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. The Fund’s investments in emerging market countries may involve risks greater than, or in addition to, the risks of investing in more developed countries.

Emerging Markets Risk. The risks of foreign investing mentioned above are heightened when investing in emerging markets. Emerging markets securities involve a number of additional risks, which may result from 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, 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 the Fund’s investments. In addition, the Fund’s investments may be denominated in foreign currencies and therefore changes in the value of a country’s currency compared to the U.S. dollar may affect the value of the Fund’s investments. To the extent that the Fund invests a significant portion of its assets in the securities of issuers in or companies of a single country or region, it is more likely to be impacted by events or conditions affecting that country or region, which could have a negative impact on the Fund’s performance. Additionally, foreign and emerging market risks, including but not limited to price controls, expropriation or confiscatory taxation, imposition or enforcement of foreign ownership limits, nationalization, and restrictions on repatriation of assets may be heightened to the

8	Janus Henderson Emerging Markets Fund

extent the Fund invests in Chinese local market securities. Some of the risks of investing directly in non-U.S. and emerging market securities may be reduced when the Fund invests indirectly in non-U.S. securities through various other investment vehicles.

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 U.S. federal income tax rates when distributed to shareholders.

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. Returns shown prior to June 5, 2017 are those of the Predecessor Fund, Henderson Emerging Markets Fund. The Predecessor Fund was advised by Henderson Global Investors (North America) Inc. and subadvised by Henderson Investment Management Limited. Class A Shares, Class C Shares, Class I Shares and Class R6 Shares of the Predecessor Fund were reorganized into Class A Shares, Class C Shares, Class I Shares and Class N Shares, respectively, of the Fund on June 2, 2017.

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE

Janus Henderson European Focus Fund seeks long-term capital appreciation primarily through investment in equities of European companies.

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.

ANNUAL FUND OPERATING EXPENSES (expenses that you pay each year as a percentage of the value of your investment)		Class D
Management Fees		0.94%
Other Expenses ⁽¹⁾		0.17%
Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses		1.11%

(1)	Other Expenses are based on annualized expenses from the Fund’s previous fiscal period.

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, reinvest all dividends and distributions, and then redeem all of your Shares at the end of each period. 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:

	1 Year	3 Years	5 Years	10 Years
Class D Shares	$ 113	$ 353	$ 612	$ 1,352

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. The portfolio turnover rate of Henderson European Focus Fund (the “Predecessor Fund”) and the Fund for the fiscal year August 1, 2016 to July 31, 2017 was 57% of the average value of the portfolio. The portfolio turnover rate of the Fund for the fiscal period August 1, 2017 to September 30, 2017 was 6% of the average value of the portfolio.

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES

The Fund pursues its investment objective by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) in equity securities of European companies. Equity securities include common stocks and related securities, such as preferred stock, convertible securities, and depositary receipts. European companies are broadly defined to include any company that meets one or more of the following tests: (i) its country of organization, its primary business office and/or the principal trading market of its stock are located in Europe, (ii) 50% or more of its assets are located in Europe, or (iii) 50% or more of its revenues are derived from Europe.

12	Janus Henderson European Focus Fund

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

13	Janus Henderson European Focus Fund

region will generally have a greater effect on the Fund than they would on a more geographically diversified fund, which may result in greater losses and volatility. This risk increases to the extent the Fund focuses on issuers in a limited number of countries in Europe. Western Europe has, in certain instances, been susceptible to serious financial hardship, high debt levels and high levels of unemployment. The European Union itself has experienced difficulties in connection with the debt loads of some of its member states. Although Western Europe is developed, recent economic hardship will pose investment risk in neighboring emerging nations.

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 or if the portfolio manager’s belief about a company’s intrinsic worth is incorrect. 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. Market risk may affect a single issuer, industry, economic sector, or the market as a whole.

14	Janus Henderson European Focus Fund

be denominated in foreign currencies and therefore, changes in the value of a country’s currency compared to the U.S. dollar may affect the value of the Fund’s investments. To the extent that the Fund invests a significant portion of its assets in the securities of issuers in or companies of a single country or region, it is more likely to be impacted by events or conditions affecting that country or region, which could have a negative impact on the Fund’s performance. Some of the risks of investing directly in foreign and emerging market securities may be reduced when the Fund invests indirectly in foreign securities through various other investment vehicles including derivatives, which also involve other risks. As of September 30, 2017, approximately 2.8% of the Fund’s investments were in emerging markets (i.e. countries included in the MSCI Emerging Markets Index ^sm ).

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. Returns shown prior to June 5, 2017 are those of the Predecessor Fund, Henderson European Focus Fund. The Predecessor Fund was advised by Henderson Global Investors (North America) Inc. and subadvised by Henderson Investment Management Limited. Class A Shares, Class C Shares, Class I Shares and Class R6 Shares of the Predecessor Fund were reorganized into Class A Shares, Class C Shares, Class I Shares and Class N Shares, respectively, of the Fund on June 2, 2017. In connection with this reorganization, certain shareholders of the Predecessor Fund who held shares directly with the Predecessor Fund and not through an intermediary had the Class A Shares, Class C Shares, Class I Shares and Class N Shares of the Fund received in the Merger automatically exchanged for Class D Shares of the Fund following the Merger. Class A Shares and Class C Shares of the Predecessor Fund commenced operations with the Predecessor Fund’s inception on August 31, 2001. Class I Shares and Class R6 Shares of the Predecessor Fund commenced operations on March 31, 2009 and November 30, 2015, respectively.

The performance shown for Class D Shares prior to June 5, 2017 reflects the performance of Class A Shares of the Predecessor Fund, calculated using the fees and expenses of Class A Shares of the Predecessor Fund (without sales charges or 12b-1 fees), net of any applicable fee and expense limitations or waivers.

•	The MSCI Europe Index is a free float-adjusted market capitalization index that is designed to measure developed market equity performance in Europe. The performance of the Index is listed in U.S. dollars and assumes reinvestment of net dividends.

After-tax returns are calculated using distributions for the Predecessor Fund’s Class A Shares for the period prior to June 5, 2017. If Class D Shares of the Fund had been available during periods prior to June 5, 2017, the distributions used to calculate the after-tax returns may have been different. 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 table. 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.

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT RISKS

19	Janus Henderson Global Equity Income Fund

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. The Fund’s investments in emerging market countries may involve risks greater than, or in addition to, the risks of investing in more developed countries.

Emerging Markets Risk. The risks of foreign investing mentioned above are heightened when investing in emerging markets. Emerging markets securities involve a number of additional risks, which may result from 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, 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 the Fund’s investments. In addition, the Fund’s investments may be denominated in foreign currencies and therefore, changes in the value of a country’s currency compared to the U.S. dollar may affect the value of the Fund’s investments. To the extent that the Fund invests a significant portion of its assets in the securities of issuers in or companies of a single country or region, it is more likely to be impacted by events or conditions affecting that country or region, which could have a negative impact on the Fund’s performance. Some of the risks of investing directly in foreign and emerging market securities may be reduced when the Fund invests indirectly in foreign securities through various other investment vehicles including derivatives, which also involve other risks. As of September 30, 2017, approximately 3.8% of the Fund’s investments were in emerging markets (i.e. countries included in the MSCI Emerging Markets Index ^sm ).

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 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.

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. Returns shown prior to June 5, 2017 are those of the Predecessor Fund, Henderson Global Equity Income Fund.

Class A Shares, Class C Shares, Class I Shares and Class R6 Shares of the Predecessor Fund were reorganized into Class A Shares, Class C Shares, Class I Shares and Class N Shares, respectively, of the Fund on June 2, 2017. In connection with this reorganization, certain shareholders of the Predecessor Fund who held shares directly with the Predecessor Fund and not through an intermediary had the Class A Shares, Class C Shares, Class I Shares and Class N Shares of the Fund received in the Merger automatically exchanged for Class D Shares of the Fund following the Merger.

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES

The Fund pursues its investment objective by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) in equity 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, real estate investment trusts (“REITs”) and similar REIT-like entities, such as foreign entities that have REIT characteristics. From time to time, the Fund may invest in shares of companies through initial public offerings.

29	Janus Henderson Global Real Estate Fund

activities; (ii) have at least 50% of their assets in real estate; or (iii) have more than 50% of their net asset value accounted for by real estate.

The Fund may invest its assets in derivatives, which are instruments that have a value derived from, or directly linked to, an underlying asset, such as equity securities, fixed-income securities, commodities, currencies, interest rates, or market indices, as substitutes for securities in which the Fund invests. For purposes of meeting its 80% investment policy, the Fund may include derivatives that have characteristics similar to the securities in which the Fund may directly invest. In particular, the Fund may use forward currency contracts to offset risks associated with currency exposure.

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

Foreign Exposure Risk. The Fund normally has significant exposure to foreign markets as a result of its investments in foreign securities, including investments in emerging markets, 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. The Fund’s investments in emerging market countries may involve risks greater than, or in addition to, the risks of investing in more developed countries.

regulation of business and industry practices (including the potential lack of strict finance and accounting controls and standards), stock exchanges, brokers, and listed companies, 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 the Fund’s investments. In addition, the Fund’s investments may be denominated in foreign currencies and therefore, changes in the value of a country’s currency compared to the U.S. dollar may affect the value of the Fund’s investments. To the extent that the Fund invests a significant portion of its assets in the securities of issuers in or companies of a single country or region, it is more likely to be impacted by events or conditions affecting that country or region, which could have a negative impact on the Fund’s performance. Some of the risks of investing directly in foreign and emerging market securities may be reduced when the Fund invests indirectly in foreign securities through various other investment vehicles including derivatives, which also involve other risks. As of September 30, 2017, approximately 7.7% of the Fund’s investments were in emerging markets (i.e. countries included in the MSCI Emerging Markets Index ^sm ).

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.

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.

ANNUAL FUND OPERATING EXPENSES (expenses that you pay each year as a percentage of the value of your investment)	Class D
Management Fees (may adjust up or down)	0.53%
Other Expenses	0.21%
Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses	0.74%

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, reinvest all dividends and distributions, and then redeem all of your Shares at the end of each period. 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:

	1 Year	3 Years	5 Years	10 Years
Class D Shares	$ 76	$ 237	$ 411	$ 918

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES

Janus Capital’s equity research analysts, overseen by the Portfolio Oversight Team led by Janus Capital’s Director of Research Carmel Wellso (the “Research Team”), select investments for the Fund that represent the Research Team’s high-conviction investment ideas in all market capitalizations, styles, and geographies. The Research Team, comprised of sector specialists, conducts fundamental analysis with a focus on “bottom up” research, quantitative modeling, and valuation analysis. Using this research process, analysts rate their stocks based upon attractiveness. Analysts bring their high-conviction ideas to their respective sector teams. Sector teams compare the appreciation and risk potential of each of the team’s high-conviction ideas and construct a sector portfolio that is intended to maximize the best risk-reward opportunities.

The Fund may also invest its assets in derivatives, which are instruments that have a value derived from, or directly linked to, an underlying asset, such as equity securities, fixed-income securities, commodities, currencies, interest rates, or market indices. The types of derivatives in which the Fund may invest include options, forward currency contracts, and swaps. The Fund may use derivatives to manage the Fund’s equity exposure, to offset risks associated with an investment, currency exposure, or market conditions, to hedge currency exposure relative to the Fund’s benchmark index, and to gain access to markets where direct investment may be restricted or unavailable. The Fund may also hold derivatives, such as warrants, in connection with corporate actions.

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

Emerging Markets Risk. The risks of foreign investing mentioned above are heightened when investing in emerging markets. Emerging markets securities involve a number of additional risks, which may result from 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, 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 the Fund’s investments. In addition, the Fund’s investments may be denominated in foreign currencies and therefore, changes in the value of a country’s currency compared to the U.S. dollar may affect the value of the Fund’s investments. To the extent that the Fund invests a significant portion of its assets in the securities of issuers in or companies of a single country or region, it is more likely to be impacted by events or conditions affecting that country or region, which could have a negative impact on the Fund’s performance. Some of the risks of investing directly in foreign and emerging market securities may be reduced when the Fund invests indirectly in foreign securities through various other investment vehicles including derivatives, which also involve other risks. As of September 30,

35	Janus Henderson Global Research Fund

2017, approximately 5.6% of the Fund’s investments were in emerging markets (i.e. countries included in the MSCI Emerging Markets Index ^sm ).

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 or if the investment personnel’s belief about a company’s intrinsic worth is incorrect. 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. Market risk may affect a single issuer, industry, economic sector, or the market as a whole.

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.

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 invests primarily in common stocks, which tend to be more volatile than many other investment choices.

Emerging Markets Risk. The risks of foreign investing mentioned above are heightened when investing in emerging markets. Emerging markets securities involve a number of additional risks, which may result from 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, 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 the Fund’s investments. In addition, the Fund’s investments may be denominated in foreign currencies and therefore, changes in the value of a country’s currency compared to the U.S. dollar may affect the value of the Fund’s investments. To the extent that the Fund invests a significant portion of its assets in the securities of issuers in or companies of a single country or region, it is more likely to be impacted by events or conditions affecting that country or region, which could have a negative impact on the Fund’s performance. Additionally, foreign and emerging market risks, including but not limited to price controls, expropriation or confiscatory taxation, imposition or enforcement of foreign ownership limits, nationalization, and restrictions on repatriation of assets may be heightened to the extent the Fund invests in Chinese local market securities. Some of the risks of investing directly in foreign and emerging market securities may be reduced when the Fund invests indirectly in foreign securities through various other investment vehicles including derivatives, which also involve other risks. As of September 30, 2017, approximately 15.8% of the Fund’s investments were in emerging markets (i.e. countries included in the MSCI Emerging Markets Index ^sm ).

40	Janus Henderson Global Select Fund

depending on market and economic conditions, “growth” stocks may perform differently from the market as a whole and other types of securities.

Derivatives Risk. Derivatives can be highly volatile and involve risks in addition to the risks of the underlying referenced securities or asset. 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 the 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 the 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, the Fund would risk the loss of the net amount of the payments that it contractually is entitled to receive. To the extent the Fund enters into short derivative positions, the Fund may be exposed to risks similar to those associated with short sales, including the risk that the Fund’s losses are theoretically unlimited. The Fund may use derivatives, including forward exchange contracts, for hedging purposes. Hedging with derivatives may increase expenses, and there is no guarantee that a hedging strategy will work. While hedging can reduce or eliminate losses, it can also reduce or eliminate gains or cause losses if the market moves in a manner different from that anticipated by the Fund or if the cost of the derivative outweighs the benefit of the hedge.

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES

The Fund pursues its investment objective by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) in securities of companies that the portfolio managers believe will benefit significantly from advances or improvements in technology. These companies generally fall into two categories:

•	companies that the portfolio managers believe have or will develop products, processes, or services that will provide significant technological advancements or improvements; and
•	companies that the portfolio managers believe rely extensively on technology in connection with their operations or services.

44	Janus Henderson Global Technology Fund

invest in U.S. and foreign debt securities. From time to time, the Fund may invest in shares of companies through initial public offerings.

The Fund may also take long or short positions in derivatives, which are instruments that have a value derived from, or directly linked to, an underlying asset, such as equity securities, fixed-income securities, commodities, currencies, interest rates, or market indices. For purposes of meeting its 80% investment policy, the Fund may include derivatives that have characteristics similar to the securities in which the Fund may directly invest. The types of derivatives in which the Fund may invest include options, futures, swaps, warrants, and forward currency contracts. The Fund may use derivatives to hedge, to earn income or enhance returns, as a substitute for securities in which the Fund invests, to increase or decrease the Fund’s exposure to a particular market, to adjust the Fund’s currency exposure relative to its benchmark index, to gain access to foreign markets where direct investment may be restricted or unavailable, or to manage the Fund’s risk profile.

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.

Initial Public Offering Risk . The Fund’s purchase of shares issued in an initial public offering (“IPO”) exposes it to the risks associated with companies that have little operating history as public companies, as well as to the risks inherent in those sectors of the market where these new issuers operate. Although IPO investments may have had a positive impact on the Fund’s performance in the past, there can be no assurance that the Fund will identify favorable IPO investment opportunities in the future. In addition, as the Fund increases in size, the impact of IPOs on the Fund’s performance will generally decrease.

rates rise, which may cause the Fund’s net asset value to likewise decrease. For example, while securities with longer maturities and durations tend to produce higher yields, they also tend to be more sensitive to changes in prevailing interest rates and are therefore more volatile than shorter-term securities and are subject to greater market fluctuations as a result of changes in interest rates. Further, during periods of very low or negative interest rates, the Fund may not be able to maintain positive returns. The Fund may be subject to heightened interest rate risk because the Federal Reserve has ended its monetary stimulus program known as quantitative easing and interest rates are near historically low levels. The Federal Reserve raised the federal funds rate several times in recent periods and has signaled additional increases in the near future. To the extent the Federal Reserve continues to raise rates, there is a risk that the fixed-income markets will experience increased volatility and that the liquidity of certain Fund investments may be reduced. These developments could cause the Fund’s net asset value to fluctuate or make it more difficult for the Fund to accurately value its securities. These developments or others also could cause the Fund to face increased shareholder redemptions, which may lead to increased portfolio turnover and transaction costs, or could force the Fund to liquidate investments at disadvantageous times or prices, therefore adversely affecting the Fund as well as the value of your investment. The amount of assets deemed illiquid remaining within the Fund may also increase, making it more difficult to meet shareholder redemptions and further adversely affecting the value of the Fund. How specific fixed-income securities may react to changes in interest rates will depend on the specific characteristics of each security. Fixed-income securities are also subject to credit risk, prepayment risk, valuation risk, extension risk, and liquidity risk. Credit risk is the risk that the credit strength of an issuer of a fixed-income security will weaken and/or that the issuer will be unable to make timely principal and interest payments and that the security may go into default. Prepayment risk is the risk that during periods of falling interest rates, certain fixed-income securities with higher interest rates, such as mortgage- and asset-backed securities, may be prepaid by their issuers thereby reducing the amount of interest payments. Valuation risk is the risk that one or more of the fixed-income securities in which the Fund invests are priced differently than the value realized upon such security’s sale. In times of market instability, valuation may be more difficult. Extension risk is the risk that borrowers may pay off their debt obligations more slowly in times of rising interest rates, which will lengthen the duration of the portfolio. Liquidity risk is the risk that fixed-income securities may be difficult or impossible to sell at the time that the portfolio managers would like or at the price the portfolio managers believe the security is currently worth.

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.

Class D Shares*

* Class D Shares are closed to certain new investors.

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE

Janus Henderson International Opportunities Fund seeks long-term capital appreciation primarily through investment in equities of non-U.S. companies.

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.

ANNUAL FUND OPERATING EXPENSES (expenses that you pay each year as a percentage of the value of your investment)		Class D
Management Fees		0.89%
Other Expenses ⁽¹⁾		0.19%
Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses		1.08%

(1)	Other Expenses are based on annualized expenses from the Fund’s previous fiscal period.

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, reinvest all dividends and distributions, and then redeem all of your Shares at the end of each period. 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:

	1 Year	3 Years	5 Years	10 Years
Class D Shares	$ 110	$ 343	$ 595	$ 1,317

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. The portfolio turnover rate of Henderson International Opportunities Fund (the “Predecessor Fund”) and the Fund for the fiscal year August 1, 2016 to July 31, 2017 was 51% of the average value of the portfolio. The portfolio turnover rate of the Fund for the fiscal period August 1, 2017 to September 30, 2017 was 5% of the average value of the portfolio.

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES

54	Janus Henderson International Opportunities Fund

strategic views related to the growth prospects, valuations and pricing associated with international equity regions. Assets of the Fund are allocated to teams of portfolio managers who have experience with respect to a particular geographic region or discipline.

The Fund may engage in active and frequent trading to achieve its investment objective. The Fund does not limit its investments to companies of any particular size and may invest a significant portion of its assets in smaller and less seasoned issuers. However, in an attempt to reduce portfolio risks, the portfolio managers generally will invest across countries, industry groups and/or sectors.

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

55	Janus Henderson International Opportunities Fund

monopolies, any of which may have a detrimental effect on the Fund’s investments. In addition, the Fund’s investments may be denominated in foreign currencies and therefore, changes in the value of a country’s currency compared to the U.S. dollar may affect the value of the Fund’s investments. To the extent that the Fund invests a significant portion of its assets in the securities of issuers in or companies of a single country or region, it is more likely to be impacted by events or conditions affecting that country or region, which could have a negative impact on the Fund’s performance. Some of the risks of investing directly in foreign and emerging market securities may be reduced when the Fund invests indirectly in foreign securities through various other investment vehicles including derivatives, which also involve other risks. As of September 30, 2017, approximately 17.7% of the Fund’s investments were in emerging markets (i.e. countries included in the MSCI Emerging Markets Index ^sm ).

Sector Risk . At times, the Fund may have a significant portion of its assets invested in securities of companies conducting business within an economic sector. Companies in the same economic sector may be similarly affected by economic or market events, making the Fund more vulnerable to unfavorable developments in that economic sector than funds that invest more broadly. As the Fund’s portfolio becomes more concentrated, the Fund is less able to spread risk and potentially reduce the risk of loss and volatility.

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. Returns shown prior to June 5, 2017 are those of the Predecessor Fund, Henderson International Opportunities Fund. The Predecessor Fund was advised by Henderson Global Investors (North America) Inc. and subadvised by Henderson Investment Management Limited. Class A Shares, Class C Shares, Class R Shares, Class I Shares, Class IF Shares and Class R6 Shares of the Predecessor Fund were reorganized into Class A Shares, Class C Shares, Class R Shares, Class I Shares (Class I Shares and Class IF Shares of the Predecessor Fund were reorganized into Class I Shares of the Fund) and Class N Shares, respectively, of the Fund on June 2, 2017. In connection with this reorganization, certain shareholders of the Predecessor Fund who held shares directly with the Predecessor Fund and not through an intermediary had the Class A Shares, Class C Shares, Class R Shares, Class I Shares and Class N Shares of the Fund received in the Merger automatically exchanged for Class D Shares of the Fund following the Merger. Class A Shares and Class C Shares of the Predecessor Fund commenced operations with the Predecessor Fund’s inception on August 31, 2001. Class R Shares, Class I Shares, Class R6 Shares and Class IF Shares of the Predecessor Fund commenced operations on September 30, 2005, March 31, 2009, November 30, 2015 and March 31, 2016, respectively.

Returns of the Fund will be different from the Predecessor Fund as they have different expenses.

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE

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.

ANNUAL FUND OPERATING EXPENSES (expenses that you pay each year as a percentage of the value of your investment)		Class D
Management Fees		0.99%
Other Expenses ⁽¹⁾		2.17%
Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses ⁽²⁾		3.16%

Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses After Fee Waiver ⁽²⁾		1.19%

(1)	Other Expenses are based on annualized expenses from the Fund’s previous fiscal period.

(2)

Janus Capital has contractually agreed to waive its investment advisory fee and/or reimburse operating expenses to the extent that the Fund’s total annual fund operating expenses (excluding administrative services fees (including out-of-pocket costs), brokerage commissions, interest, dividends, taxes, acquired fund fees and expenses, and extraordinary expenses) exceed 1.06% until at least February 1, 2019. The contractual waiver may be terminated or modified prior to this date only at the discretion of the Board of Trustees.

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, reinvest all dividends and distributions, and then redeem all of your Shares at the end of each period. The Example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund’s operating expenses without waivers remain the same. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

	1 Year	3 Years	5 Years	10 Years
Class D Shares	$ 319	$ 974	$ 1,654	$ 3,467

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. The portfolio turnover rate of Henderson International Small Cap Fund (the “Predecessor Fund”) and the Fund for the fiscal period December 15, 2016 (commencement of operations) to July 31, 2017 was 69% of the average value of the portfolio. The portfolio turnover rate of the Fund for the fiscal period August 1, 2017 to September 30, 2017 was 18% of the average value of the portfolio.

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES

The Fund pursues its investment objective by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) in equity securities of non-U.S. small market capitalization (“small cap”) companies, from at least three different countries outside of the U.S. Equity securities include common stocks and related securities, such as preferred stocks, convertible securities and depositary receipts.

60	Janus Henderson International Small Cap Fund

$10.7 billion. Some companies may outgrow the definition of a small cap company or may no longer fall within the range of a reconstituted index after the Fund has purchased their securities. These companies will continue to be considered small cap for purposes of the Fund’s minimum 80% allocation to equity securities of non-U.S. small cap companies, including, with respect to subsequent purchases.

The Fund uses a value-oriented approach, designed to identify stocks trading at attractive valuations. The investment process is driven by the belief that the level of real returns delivered depends on the initial price paid. In selecting investments, a proprietary analytical model is used to provide theoretical values for each stock in the investment universe and then ranks the stock according to its discount or premium. In assessing a company, four key components are considered: net asset value (“NAV”), current earnings, value of growth and dividends. From among those companies with the biggest discounts to fair value (based around the above factors), the portfolio managers seek to identify a portfolio of stocks that they believe are priced below their intrinsic worth and which offer the best potential to achieve the Fund’s investment objective. At the final stage, stocks are validated through fundamental analysis and bottom-up research for inclusion in the portfolio. The Fund generally sells a stock if, in the portfolio managers’ opinion, it no longer offers an attractive valuation. The Fund will also consider selling a security if, in the portfolio managers’ opinion, a superior investment opportunity arises. The Fund typically expects to maintain investments in a portfolio of between 70 and 100 stocks.

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT RISKS

61	Janus Henderson International Small Cap Fund

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. The Fund’s investments in emerging market countries may involve risks greater than, or in addition to, the risks of investing in more developed countries.

Emerging Markets Risk. The risks of foreign investing mentioned above are heightened when investing in emerging markets. Emerging markets securities involve a number of additional risks, which may result from 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, 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 the Fund’s investments. In addition, the Fund’s investments may be denominated in foreign currencies and therefore, changes in the value of a country’s currency compared to the U.S. dollar may affect the value of the Fund’s investments. To the extent that the Fund invests a significant portion of its assets in the securities of issuers in or companies of a single country or region, it is more likely to be impacted by events or conditions affecting that country or region, which could have a negative impact on the Fund’s performance. As of September 30, 2017, the Fund did not hold investments in emerging markets (i.e. countries included in the MSCI Emerging Markets Index ^sm ).

Liquidity Risk. The Fund may invest in securities or instruments that do not trade actively or in large volumes, and may make investments that are less liquid than other investments. Also, the Fund may make investments that may become less liquid in response to market developments or adverse investor perceptions. Investments that are illiquid or that trade in lower volumes may be more difficult to value. When there is no willing buyer and investments cannot be readily sold at the desired time or price, the Fund may have to accept a lower price or may not be able to sell the security or instrument at all. Investments in foreign securities, particularly those of issuers located in emerging market countries, tend to have greater exposure to liquidity risk than domestic securities. In unusual market conditions, even normally liquid securities may be affected by a degree of liquidity risk (i.e., if the number and capacity of traditional market participants is reduced). An inability to sell one or more portfolio positions can adversely affect the Fund’s value or prevent the Fund from being able to take advantage of other investment opportunities.

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. Returns shown prior to June 5, 2017 are those of the Predecessor Fund, Henderson International Small Cap Fund. The Predecessor Fund was advised by Henderson Global Investors (North America) Inc. and subadvised by Henderson Investment Management Limited. Class R6 Shares of the Predecessor Fund were reorganized into Class N Shares of the Fund on June 2, 2017. In connection with this reorganization, certain shareholders of the Predecessor Fund who held shares directly with the Predecessor Fund and not through an intermediary had the Class A Shares, Class C Shares, Class I Shares and Class N Shares of the Fund received in the Merger automatically exchanged for Class D Shares of the Fund following the Merger. Class R6 Shares of the Predecessor Fund commenced operations with the Predecessor Fund’s inception on December 15, 2016. Class A Shares, Class C Shares, Class S Shares, Class I Shares, and Class T Shares of the Fund commenced operations on June 5, 2017.

•	The performance of Class D Shares shown for periods prior to June 5, 2017 reflects the performance of Class R6 Shares of the Predecessor Fund, calculated using the estimated fees and expenses of Class D Shares, net of any applicable fee and expense limitations or waivers.

Returns of the Fund will be different from the Predecessor Fund as they have different expenses.

The bar chart depicts the Fund’s performance during the period indicated. The table compares the Fund’s average annual returns for the periods indicated to a broad-based securities market index. 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.

The Fund’s primary benchmark index is the MSCI EAFE® Small Cap Index. The index is described below.

•	The MSCI EAFE® Small Cap Index is an equity index that reflects the performance of small capitalization equities across developed markets, excluding the U.S. and Canada.

Prior to June 5, 2017, the Predecessor Fund used the MSCI EAFE® Small Cap Index gross of foreign withholding taxes. Effective June 5, 2017, the Fund’s performance is compared to the MSCI EAFE® Small Cap Index net of foreign withholding taxes, because they more closely reflect the Fund’s investment universe and are consistent with the practices of other funds advised by Janus Capital.

After-tax returns are calculated using distributions for the Predecessor Fund’s Class R6 Shares for the period prior to June 5, 2017. If Class D Shares of the Fund had been available during periods prior to June 5, 2017, the distributions used to calculate the after-tax returns may have been different. 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 table. 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.

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE

Janus Henderson Overseas Fund seeks long-term growth of capital.

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.

ANNUAL FUND OPERATING EXPENSES (expenses that you pay each year as a percentage of the value of your investment)	Class D
Management Fees (may adjust up or down)	0.40%
Other Expenses	0.22%
Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses	0.62%

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, reinvest all dividends and distributions, and then redeem all of your Shares at the end of each period. 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:

	1 Year	3 Years	5 Years	10 Years
Class D Shares	$ 63	$ 199	$ 346	$ 774

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES

The Fund pursues its investment objective by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) in securities of issuers or companies from countries outside of the United States. The Fund normally invests in securities of issuers from several different countries, excluding the United States. Although the Fund typically invests 80% or more of its assets in issuers that are economically tied to countries outside the United States, it also may normally invest up to 20% of its net assets, measured at the time of purchase, in U.S. issuers, and it may, under unusual circumstances, invest all or substantially all of its assets in a single country. The Fund may have significant exposure to emerging markets. The Fund typically invests in equity securities (such as stocks or any other security representing an ownership interest) but may also invest in U.S. and foreign debt securities.

70	Janus Henderson Overseas Fund

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.

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

Emerging Markets Risk. The risks of foreign investing mentioned above are heightened when investing in emerging markets. Emerging markets securities involve a number of additional risks, which may result from 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, 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 the Fund’s investments. In addition, the Fund’s investments may be denominated in foreign currencies and therefore, changes in the value of a country’s currency compared to the U.S. dollar may affect the value of the Fund’s investments. To the extent that the Fund invests a significant portion of its assets in the securities of issuers in or companies of a single country or region, it is more likely to be impacted by events or conditions affecting that country or region, which could have a negative impact on the Fund’s performance. Additionally, foreign and emerging market risks, including but not limited to price controls, expropriation or confiscatory taxation, imposition or enforcement of foreign ownership limits, nationalization, and restrictions on repatriation of assets may be heightened to the extent the Fund invests in Chinese local market securities. Some of the risks of investing directly in foreign and emerging market securities may be reduced when the Fund invests indirectly in foreign securities through various other investment vehicles including derivatives, which also involve other risks. As of September 30, 2017, approximately 27.8% of the Fund’s investments were in emerging markets (i.e. countries included in the MSCI Emerging Markets Index ^sm ).

71	Janus Henderson Overseas Fund

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 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.

Derivatives Risk. Derivatives can be highly volatile and involve risks in addition to the risks of the underlying referenced securities or asset. 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 the 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 the 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, the Fund would risk the loss of the net amount of the payments that it contractually is entitled to receive. To the extent the Fund enters into short derivative positions, the Fund may be exposed to risks similar to those associated with short sales, including the risk that the Fund’s losses are theoretically unlimited. The Fund may use derivatives, including forward currency contracts, for hedging purposes. Hedging with derivatives may increase expenses, and there is no guarantee that a hedging strategy will work. While hedging can reduce or eliminate losses, it can also reduce or eliminate gains or cause losses if the market moves in a manner different from that anticipated by the Fund or if the cost of the derivative outweighs the benefit of the hedge.

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.

Additional information about the Funds

Fees and expenses

Please refer to the following important information when reviewing the “Fees and Expenses of the Fund” table in each Fund Summary of the Prospectus. The fees and expenses shown were determined based on net assets as of the fiscal year ended September 30, 2017, except for Janus Henderson Emerging Markets Fund, Janus Henderson European Focus Fund, Janus Henderson Global Equity Income Fund, Janus Henderson International Opportunities Fund, and Janus Henderson International Small Cap Fund which were based on the fiscal period August 1, 2017 to September 30, 2017.

•

•	“Other Expenses”

_°	include an administrative services fee of 0.12% of the average daily net assets of Class D Shares for shareholder services provided by Janus Services LLC (“Janus Services”), the Funds’ transfer agent.
_°	may include acquired fund fees and expenses, which are indirect expenses a Fund may incur as a result of investing in shares of an underlying fund. “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. 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 table because that ratio includes only the direct operating expenses incurred by the Fund, not the indirect costs of investing in Acquired Funds. Such amounts are less than 0.01%.
_°	may include “Short Sale Dividend Expenses.” These expenses include dividends or interest on short sales, which are paid to the lender of borrowed securities, and stock loan fees, which are paid to the prime broker. Such expenses will vary depending on the short sale arrangement, whether the securities a Fund sells short pay dividends or interest, and the amount of such dividends or interest. While “Short Sale Dividend Expenses” include interest and dividends paid out on short positions and may include stock loan fees, they do not take into account the interest credit a Fund earns on cash proceeds of short sales held as collateral for short positions. 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.”
_°	may include reimbursement to Janus Services of its out-of-pocket costs for arranging for the provision by third parties of certain servicing to shareholders.

Additional investment strategies and general portfolio policies

75	Janus Investment Fund

with at least 60 days’ notice prior to changing this policy. If there is a material change to a Fund’s investment 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.

Cash Position

Common Stock

Unless its investment objective or policies prescribe otherwise, each of the Funds may invest substantially all of its assets in common stocks. The portfolio managers and/or investment personnel generally take a “bottom up” approach to selecting companies in which to invest. This means that they seek to identify individual companies with earnings growth potential that may not be recognized by the market at large or, with respect to Janus Henderson Global Value Fund and Janus Henderson International Value Fund, companies with products and services that give them a competitive advantage. The philosophy of the portfolio managers of Janus Henderson Global Value Fund and Janus Henderson International Value Fund is to weigh a security’s downside risk before considering its upside potential, which may help provide an element of capital preservation. Securities are generally selected on a security-by-security basis without regard to any predetermined allocation among countries or geographic regions. However, certain factors, such as expected levels of inflation, government policies influencing business conditions, the outlook for currency relationships, and prospects for economic growth among countries, regions, or geographic areas, may warrant greater consideration in selecting foreign securities. There are no limitations on the countries in which the Funds may invest, and the Funds may at times have significant exposure to emerging markets. The portfolio managers and/or investment personnel may sell a holding if, among other things, the security reaches the portfolio managers’ and/or investment personnel’s price target, if the company has a deterioration of fundamentals such as failing to meet key operating benchmarks, or if the portfolio managers and/or investment personnel find a better investment opportunity. The portfolio managers and/or investment personnel may also sell a Fund holding to meet redemptions.

76	Janus Investment Fund

buying opportunities at attractive prices compared to historical or market price-earnings ratios, price/free cash flow, book value, or return on equity. The portfolio managers believe that buying these securities at a price that is below their intrinsic worth may generate greater returns for a Fund than those obtained by paying premium prices for companies currently in favor in the market.

Emerging Markets

High-Yield/High-Risk Bonds

A high-yield/high-risk bond (also known as a “junk” bond) is a bond rated below investment grade by major rating agencies (i.e., BB+ or lower by Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services (“Standard & Poor’s”) and Fitch, Inc. (“Fitch”), or Ba or lower by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (“Moody’s”)) or is an unrated bond of similar quality. It presents greater risk of default (the failure to make timely interest and principal payments) than higher quality bonds. To the extent a Fund invests in high-yield/high-risk bonds, under normal circumstances, each Fund, with the exception of Janus Henderson Asia Equity Fund, will limit its investments in high-yield/high-risk bonds to 35% or less of its net assets. Janus Henderson Asia Equity Fund will limit its investments in such bonds to 20% or less of its net assets.

Risks of the Funds

While Janus Henderson Global Real Estate Fund will not invest in real property directly, the Fund may be subject to risks similar to those associated with the direct ownership of real property (in addition to securities market risks). These risks include, but are not limited to, declines in the value of real property, risks related to general and local economic conditions, dependency on management skill, heavy cash flow dependency, adverse changes in the operations of any property or the financial condition of any tenant, possible lack of availability of mortgage funds, overbuilding, extended vacancies of properties, increased competition, increases in property taxes and operating expenses, changes in zoning laws, losses due to costs resulting from the clean-up of environmental problems, liability to third parties for damages resulting from environmental problems, casualty or condemnation losses, limitations on rents, changes in neighborhood values and in appeal of properties to tenants, and changes in interest rates.

80	Janus Investment Fund

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.

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. The securities markets of many of these countries 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 a Fund to obtain or to enforce a judgment against the issuers of such securities. In addition, a Fund’s investments may be denominated in foreign currencies and therefore, changes in the value of a country’s currency compared to the U.S. dollar may affect the value of the Fund’s investments. To the extent that a Fund invests a significant portion of its assets in the securities of issuers in or companies of a single country or region, it is more likely to be impacted by events or conditions affecting that country or region, which could have a negative impact on the Fund’s performance. A Fund may be subject to emerging markets risk to the extent that it invests 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. Additionally, foreign and emerging market risks, including but not limited to price controls, expropriation or confiscatory taxation, imposition or enforcement of foreign ownership limits, nationalization, and restrictions on repatriation of assets may be heightened to the extent a Fund invests in Chinese local market securities. Some of the risks of investing directly in foreign and emerging market securities may be reduced when a Fund invests indirectly in foreign securities through various other investment vehicles including derivatives, which also involve other risks.

83	Janus Investment Fund

country of incorporation, primary listing, and other factors including, but not limited to operations, revenues, headquarters, management, and shareholder base. 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.

of newly public companies have fluctuated up and down significantly over short periods of time. Although IPO investments may have had a positive impact on certain Funds’ performance in the past, there can be no assurance that the Funds will identify favorable IPO investment opportunities in the future. In addition, under certain market conditions, a relatively small number of companies may issue securities in IPOs. Similarly, as the number of Funds to which IPO securities are allocated increases, the number of securities issued to any one Fund may decrease. In addition, as a Fund increases in size, the impact of IPOs on the Fund’s performance will generally decrease.

86	Janus Investment Fund

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. As discussed in more detail under “Fixed-Income Securities Risk,” the conclusion of the Federal Reserve Board’s quantitative easing program and subsequent increases of the target range for the federal funds rate could cause the value of a Fund to decrease and result in heightened levels of market volatility as well as interest rate risk and liquidity risk. 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. Market risk may affect a single issuer, industry, economic sector, or the market as a whole.

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. An investment in Janus Henderson Global Real Estate Fund shares represents an indirect investment in real estate-related securities owned by the Fund. 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.

87	Janus Investment Fund

price. Additionally, 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. Interest costs on the proceeds received in a reverse repurchase agreement may exceed the return received on the investments made by a Fund with those proceeds, resulting in reduced returns to shareholders. When a Fund enters into a reverse repurchase agreement, it is subject to the risk that the buyer (counterparty) may default on its obligations to the Fund. In the event of such a default, the Fund may experience delays, costs, and losses, all of which may reduce returns to shareholders. Investing reverse repurchase proceeds may also have a leveraging effect on a Fund’s portfolio. A Fund’s use of leverage can magnify the effect of any gains or losses, causing the Fund to be more volatile than if it had not been leveraged. There is no assurance that any leveraging strategy used by a Fund will be successful.

(1)	The index includes reinvestment of dividends, net of foreign withholding taxes.

The calculation of the performance adjustment applies as follows:

Investment Advisory Fee = Base Fee Rate +/– Performance Adjustment

92	Janus Investment Fund

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 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 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. 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 applicable Fund.

A discussion regarding the basis for the Trustees’ approval of the Funds’ investment advisory agreements and subadvisory agreements (as applicable) is included in each Fund’s annual report (for the period ending September 30) or semiannual report (for the period ending March 31) to shareholders. You can request the Funds’ annual or semiannual reports (as they become available), free of charge, by contacting a Janus Henderson representative at 1-800-525-3713. The reports are also available, free of charge, at janushenderson.com/reports.

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 a closed fund’s prospectuses and in the “Shares of the Trust” section of the SAI.

Distributions and taxes

Distribution Schedule

How Distributions Affect a Fund’s NAV

“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 federal income 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 tax adviser as to potential tax consequences of any distributions that may be paid shortly after purchase.

Distribution Options

Reinvestment Option. You may reinvest your income dividends and capital gains distributions in additional shares.

Cash Option. You may receive your income dividends and capital gains distributions in cash.

Reinvest and Cash Option. You may receive either your income dividends or capital gains distributions in cash and reinvest the other in additional shares.

Redirect Option. You may direct your dividends or capital gains distributions to purchase shares of another Janus Henderson fund.

TAXES

Taxes on Distributions

Taxes on Sales or Exchanges

103	Janus Investment Fund

December 31, 2018, payments of gross proceeds from sales of Fund shares and distributions of net capital gains made after December 31, 2018. Shareholders should consult their individual tax advisers regarding the possible implications of this legislation.

For Shares purchased on or after January 1, 2012 and sold thereafter from a taxable account, the Janus Henderson funds will report cost basis information to you and to the IRS. Each Fund will permit shareholders to elect their preferred cost basis method. In the absence of an election, 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 cost basis reporting laws apply to you and your investments.

108	Janus Investment Fund

Pricing of fund shares

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.

Policies in Relation to Transactions

109	Janus Investment Fund

or its agents prior to the close of the regular trading session of the NYSE (normally 4:00 p.m. New York time) in order to receive that day’s NAV. Transaction requests submitted in writing and mailed to Janus Henderson’s P.O. Box, once delivered, are considered received for processing the following business day. Transactions involving funds which pay dividends will generally begin to earn dividends, as applicable, on the first bank business day following the date of purchase.

Administrative services fees

Payments to financial intermediaries by Janus Capital or its affiliates

The receipt of (or prospect of receiving) payments described above may provide a financial intermediary and its salespersons with an incentive to favor sales of Janus Henderson funds’ shares over sales of other mutual funds (or non-mutual fund investments) or to favor sales of one class of Janus Henderson funds’ shares over sales of another Janus Henderson 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 Henderson 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 Henderson funds in various ways within such financial intermediary’s organization.

The payment arrangements described above will not change the price an investor pays for Shares nor the amount that a Janus Henderson 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.

110	Janus Investment Fund

Paying for shares

Please note the following when purchasing Shares:

•	Cash, credit cards, third party checks (with certain limited exceptions), travelers cheques, credit card checks, line of credit checks, or money orders will not be accepted.
•	All purchases must be made in U.S. dollars and checks must be drawn on U.S. banks or an accepted non-U.S. bank.
•	Purchases initiated using a bill-pay service (or an equivalent) and presented either electronically or in the form of a check are considered direct deposit transactions.
•	When purchasing Shares through the Automatic Investment Program, your automatic investment selection(s) will generally be active within three days following receipt of your authorization for the date and amount you specify. If no date or dollar amount is specified on your application, investments of $50 will be made on the 20th of each month. If the balance in the Janus Henderson fund account you are buying into falls to zero as the result of a redemption, exchange, or minimum balance fee, your Automatic Investment Program will be discontinued.
•	We may make additional attempts to debit your predesignated bank account for automated investments that initially fail. You are liable for any costs associated with these additional attempts. If your automated investment fails, you may purchase Shares of the Funds by submitting good funds via another method accepted by the Funds (e.g., by wire transfer). In this case, your purchase will be processed at the next NAV determined after we receive good funds, not at the NAV available as of the date of the original request.
•	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.”
•	If all or a portion of a purchase is received for investment without a specific fund designation, for investment in one of our closed funds, or for investment in a fund that is not yet available for public sale, the undesignated amount or entire investment, as applicable, will be invested in Janus Henderson Government Money Market Fund. For investments without a specific fund designation, where you own a single Fund account with a current balance greater than zero, the investment will be applied to that Fund account. For investments without a specific fund designation, where you own two or more Fund accounts with current balances greater than zero, and for investments in closed funds, unless you later direct Janus Henderson to (i) buy shares of another Janus Henderson fund or (ii) sell shares of Janus Henderson Government Money Market Fund and return the proceeds (including any dividends earned) to you, Janus Henderson will treat your inaction as approval of the purchase of Janus Henderson Government Money Market Fund. If you hold shares of a closed fund and submit an order directly to Janus Henderson for your account in that closed fund, your account must be open and your order must clearly indicate that you are currently a shareholder of the closed fund, or your money will be invested in Janus Henderson Government Money Market Fund. If you submit an order to buy shares of a fund that is not yet available for investment (during a subscription period), your investment will be held in Janus Henderson Government Money Market Fund until the new fund’s commencement of operations. At that time, your investment (including any dividends) will be automatically exchanged from Janus Henderson Government Money Market Fund to the new fund. All orders for purchase, exchange, or redemption will receive the NAV as described under “Policies in Relation to Transactions.”
•	For Fund purchases by check, if your check does not clear for any reason, your purchase will be cancelled.
•	If your purchase is cancelled for any reason, you will be responsible for any losses or fees imposed by your bank and may be responsible for losses that may be incurred as a result of any decline in the value of the cancelled purchase.

111	Janus Investment Fund

address, date of birth, and Social Security number. Until verification of your identity is made, Janus Capital may temporarily limit additional share purchases. In addition, Janus Capital may close an account if it is unable to verify a shareholder’s identity. Please contact a Janus Henderson representative if you need additional assistance when completing your application or additional information about the Anti-Money Laundering Program.

Exchanges

Please note the following when exchanging Shares:

•	An exchange represents the redemption (or sale) of shares from one Fund and the purchase of shares of another Fund, which may produce a taxable gain or loss in a non-retirement account.
•	You may generally exchange Shares of a Fund for Shares of the same class of any other fund in the Trust, with the exception of the Janus Henderson money market funds. Only accounts beneficially owned by natural persons will be allowed to exchange to Janus Henderson Money Market Fund; all other account types can only exchange to Janus Henderson Government Money Market Fund.
•	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. A Fund’s fees and expenses differ between share classes. Exchanging from a direct share class to one held through an intermediary typically results in increased expenses. This is because share classes distributed through intermediaries include additional fees for administration and/or distribution to pay for services provided by intermediaries. Please read the Prospectus for the share class you are interested in prior to investing in that share class.
•	New regular Janus Henderson fund accounts established by exchange must be opened with $2,500 or the total account value if the value of the Janus Henderson fund account you are exchanging from is less than $2,500. (If your Janus Henderson fund account balance does not meet the minimum investment requirements, you may be subject to an annual minimum balance fee or account closure. For more information, refer to “Minimum Investment Requirements.”)
•	UGMA/UTMA accounts, Traditional or Roth IRAs, Simplified Employee Pension IRAs, and Coverdell Education Savings Accounts established by exchange must meet the minimum investment requirements previously described. If the value of the Janus Henderson fund account you are exchanging from is less than the stated minimum, you must exchange the entire balance. (If your Janus Henderson fund account balance does not meet the minimum investment requirements, you may be subject to an annual minimum balance fee or account closure. For more information, refer to “Minimum Investment Requirements.”)
•	New Janus Henderson fund non-retirement accounts established by an exchange (or exchange purchases to an existing Roth IRA) resulting from a required minimum distribution from a retirement account do not have an initial minimum investment requirement. (If your Janus Henderson fund account balance does not meet the minimum investment requirements, you may be subject to an annual minimum balance fee or account closure. For more information, refer to “Minimum Investment Requirements.”)
•	Exchanges between existing Janus Henderson fund accounts must meet the $100 subsequent investment requirement.
•	For Systematic Exchanges, if no date is specified on your request, systematic exchanges will be made on the 20th of each month. You may establish this option for as little as $100 per exchange. If the balance in the Janus Henderson fund

112	Janus Investment Fund

	account you are exchanging from falls below the Systematic Exchange amount, all remaining shares will be exchanged and your Systematic Exchange Program will be discontinued.
•	The exchange privilege is not intended as a vehicle for short-term or excessive trading. A Fund may suspend or terminate the exchange privilege of any investor who is identified as having a pattern of short-term trading. Different restrictions may apply if you invest through an intermediary. 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.
•	With certain exceptions, exchanges between Janus Henderson fund accounts will be accepted only if the registrations are identical. If you are exchanging into a closed Janus Henderson fund, you will need to meet criteria for investing in the closed fund. For more information, refer to Closed Fund Policies in the “Other Information” section of this Prospectus.
•	If the shares you are exchanging are held in certificate form, you must return the certificate to Janus Henderson prior to making any exchanges. Shares are no longer available in certificate form.

Payment of redemption proceeds

As previously noted, with certain 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.

By Electronic Transfer – Generally all accounts are automatically eligible for the electronic redemption option if bank information is provided.

•	Next Day Wire Transfer – Your redemption proceeds can be electronically transferred to your predesignated bank account on the next bank business day after receipt of your redemption request (wire transfer). You may be charged a fee for each wire transfer, and your bank may charge an additional fee to receive the wire.
•	ACH (Automated Clearing House) Transfer – Your redemption proceeds can be electronically transferred to your predesignated bank account on or about the second bank business day after receipt of your redemption request. There is no fee associated with this type of electronic transfer.

How to Obtain a Signature Guarantee

Excessive trading

Excessive and Short-Term 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 Funds are intended for long-term investment purposes, 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 and procedures may be cancelled or rescinded 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 Henderson funds may be considered in enforcing these policies and procedures. Direct investors should be aware that the Funds are also available for purchase through third party intermediaries. As described below, 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 Janus Henderson 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”.

115	Janus Investment Fund

The Funds’ Trustees may approve from time to time a redemption fee to be imposed by any Janus Henderson fund, subject to 60 days’ notice to shareholders of that fund.

The Funds’ policies and procedures regarding excessive trading may be modified at any time by the Funds’ Trustees.

Excessive Trading Risks

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, for share classes sold through financial intermediaries, 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.

116	Janus Investment Fund

Availability of Portfolio Holdings Information

•	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 Henderson representative at 1-800-525-3713 (toll free). Portfolio holdings consisting of at least the names of the holdings are generally available on a monthly basis with a 30-day lag. Holdings are generally posted approximately two business days thereafter under Full Holdings for each Fund at janushenderson.com/reports.
•	Top Holdings. Each Fund’s 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.
•	Other Information. Each Fund may occasionally provide security breakdowns (e.g., industry, sector, regional, market capitalization, and asset allocation), top performance contributors/detractors, 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. Top performance contributors/detractors may include the percentage of contribution/detraction to Fund performance.

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 policies (1) and (2), which apply only to the Funds specifically listed in those policies.

(1) With respect to 75% of its total assets, Janus Henderson Asia Equity Fund, Janus Henderson Emerging Markets Fund, Janus Henderson European Focus Fund, Janus Henderson Global Equity Income Fund, Janus Henderson Global Life Sciences Fund, Janus Henderson Global Real Estate Fund, Janus Henderson Global Research Fund, Janus Henderson Global Select Fund, Janus Henderson Global Technology Fund, Janus Henderson Global Value Fund, Janus Henderson International Opportunities Fund, Janus Henderson International Value Fund, Janus Henderson Overseas Fund, Janus Henderson Balanced Fund, Janus Henderson Enterprise Fund, Janus Henderson Growth and Income Fund, Janus Henderson Research Fund, Janus Henderson Triton Fund, Janus Henderson U.S. Growth Opportunities Fund, and Janus Henderson Venture 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), except that:

(i)	Janus Henderson Global Life Sciences Fund will normally invest 25% or more of the value of its total assets, in aggregate, in the following industry groups: health care, pharmaceuticals, agriculture, cosmetics/personal care, and biotechnology.

(ii)	Janus Henderson Global Real Estate Fund will invest 25% or more of the value of its total assets in the real estate industries or real estate-related industries.

(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) 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.

(7) Each Fund (except for Janus Henderson Emerging Markets Fund, Janus Henderson European Focus Fund, Janus Henderson Global Equity Income Fund, Janus Henderson International Opportunities Fund, Janus Henderson International Small Cap Fund, and Janus Henderson U.S. Growth Opportunities Fund) may not:

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.

(8) With respect to Janus Henderson Emerging Markets Fund, Janus Henderson European Focus Fund, Janus Henderson Global Equity Income Fund, Janus Henderson International Opportunities Fund, Janus Henderson International Small Cap Fund, and Janus Henderson U.S. Growth Opportunities Fund, each Fund may not:

Borrow money or issue “senior securities,” in each case except as permitted under the 1940 Act.

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 underlying fund in a Janus Capital fund of funds, the Fund may not acquire securities of other investment companies in reliance on Section 12(d)(1)(F) of the 1940 Act and securities of open-end investment companies or registered unit investment trusts in reliance on Section 12(d)(1)(G) of the 1940 Act.

(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; 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, and interfund loans are subject to the risk that the borrowing Fund may be unable to repay the loan when due. While it is expected that a Fund may borrow money through the program to satisfy redemption requests or to cover unanticipated cash shortfalls, a Fund may elect to not participate in the program during times of market uncertainty or distress or for other reasons.

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, 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 Bloomberg 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 Policies Applicable to Certain Funds

Janus Henderson Global Life Sciences Fund. As a fundamental policy, Janus Henderson Global Life Sciences Fund will normally invest at least 25% of its total assets, in aggregate, in the following industry groups: health care, pharmaceuticals, agriculture, cosmetics/personal care, and biotechnology. Janus Henderson Global Life Sciences Fund does not have a policy to concentrate in any industry other than those listed above.

Janus Henderson Global Real Estate Fund. As a fundamental policy, the Fund will concentrate 25% or more of its total assets in securities of issuers in real estate industries or real estate-related industries.

Janus Henderson Balanced Fund. As an operational policy, at least 25% of the assets of Janus Henderson Balanced Fund will normally be invested in fixed-income senior securities. A senior security ranks above an issuing company’s other securities in the event of a bankruptcy or liquidation, which means the Fund would be in line to receive repayment of its investment before certain of the company’s other creditors.

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.

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.”)

Commercial Paper

Commercial paper refers to short-term, unsecured promissory notes issued by banks, corporations and other borrowers to finance short-term credit needs. Commercial paper is usually sold on a discount basis and typically has a maturity at the time of issuance not exceeding nine months. Each Fund may invest in commercial paper that is rated Prime-1 by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (“Moody’s”) or A-1 by Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services (“S&P”) or, if not rated by Moody’s or S&P, is issued by a company having an outstanding debt issue rated Aaa or Aa by Moody’s or AAA or AA by S&P. Although one or more of the other risks associated with commercial paper include credit risk and liquidity risk.

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 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.

Segregation of Assets

Consistent with SEC staff guidance, financial instruments that involve a Fund’s obligation to make future payments to third parties will not be viewed as creating any senior security provided that such Fund covers its obligations as described below. Those financial instruments include, among others: (i) securities sold short; (ii) securities issued on a when-issued, delayed delivery, or forward commitment basis; (iii) reverse repurchase agreements; (iv) mortgage dollar rolls; (v) futures contracts; (vi) forward currency contracts; (vii) swap agreements; (viii) written options; and (ix) unfunded commitments.

Consistent with SEC staff guidance, a Fund will consider its obligations involving such a financial instrument as “covered” when such Fund (a) maintains an offsetting financial position, or (b) segregates or “earmarks” liquid assets (constituting cash, cash equivalents, or other liquid portfolio securities) equal to such Fund’s exposures relating to the financial instrument, as determined on a daily basis. Janus Capital maintains compliance policies and procedures that govern the kinds of transactions that may be deemed to be offsetting financial positions for purposes of (a) above, and the amount of liquid assets that would otherwise need to be segregated or earmarked for purposes of (b) above (the “Segregation and Collateral Procedures”).

The Segregation and Collateral Procedures provide, consistent with current SEC staff positions, that for forward currency contracts and swap agreements that require cash settlement, as well as swap agreements that call for periodic netting between the Fund and its counterparty, the required coverage amount is the net amount due under the contract, as determined daily on a mark-to-market basis. For other kinds of futures, forward currency contracts, and swap agreements, a Fund must segregate or earmark a larger amount of assets to cover its obligations. For example, when a Fund writes/sells credit default swaps or options, it must segregate liquid assets equal to the notional amount of the swap or option.

For purposes of calculating the amount of liquid assets that must be segregated or earmarked for a particular transaction, a Fund may deduct any initial and variation margin deposited with the relevant broker, but in the case of securities sold short, may not deduct the amount of any short sale proceeds. When a Fund sells securities short, the proceeds of the short sale are retained by the broker, to the extent necessary to meet margin requirements, until the position is closed out. If the lending broker requires a 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 such 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. The Funds believe 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 a Fund’s segregated asset procedures (or a combination thereof), are not senior securities under the 1940 Act and are not subject to such Fund’s borrowing restrictions. This requirement to segregate assets places an upper limit on a Fund’s ability to leverage its investments and the related risk of losses from leveraging. The Funds are also 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.

As a general matter, liquid assets segregated or earmarked as cover for one position may not simultaneously be counted as cover for another position. However, in the case of a straddle where the exercise price of the call option and put option are the same, or the exercise price of the call option is higher than that of the put option, a Fund may segregate or earmark the

same liquid assets for both the call and put options. In such cases, each Fund expects to segregate or earmark liquid assets equivalent to the amount, if any, by which the put option is “in the money.”

In order to comply with the Segregation and Collateral Procedures, a Fund may need to sell a portfolio security or exit a transaction, including a transaction in a financial instrument, at a disadvantageous time or price in order for such Fund to be able to segregate or earmark the required amount of assets. If segregated assets decline in value, the Funds will need to segregate or earmark additional assets or reduce its position in the financial instruments. In addition, segregated or earmarked assets may not be available to satisfy redemptions or for other purposes, until a Fund’s obligations under the financial instruments have been satisfied. A Fund may not be able to promptly liquidate an unfavorable position and potentially could be required to continue to hold a position until the delivery date, regardless of changes in its value. Because a Fund’s cash that may otherwise be invested would be held uninvested or invested in other liquid assets so long as the position remains open, such Fund’s return could be diminished due to the opportunity losses of foregoing other potential investments.

A Fund’s ability to use the financial instruments identified above may under some circumstances depend on the nature of the instrument and amount of assets that the Segregation and Collateral Procedures require the Fund to segregate or earmark. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Janus Capital reserves the right to modify its Segregation and Collateral Procedures in the future in its discretion, consistent with the 1940 Act and SEC or SEC staff guidance.

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 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 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 is comprised of 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 convertible component 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 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 Sector 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 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 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. In addition to the Global and International Funds, Janus Henderson Enterprise 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:

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. Further, acts of terrorism in the United States or other countries may cause uncertainty in the financial markets and adversely affect the performance of the issuers to which a Fund has exposure. 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 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.

Certain countries in the EU, particularly Greece, Ireland, and Portugal, have had to accept assistance from supra governmental agencies such as the International Monetary Fund and the 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 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.

On June 23, 2016, the United Kingdom voted via referendum to leave the EU, which immediately led to significant market volatility around the world, as well as political, economic, and legal uncertainty. On March 29, 2017, the United Kingdom invoked a treaty provision that sets out the basics of a withdrawal from the EU and provides that negotiations must be completed within two years, unless all EU member states agree on an extension. There is considerable uncertainty relating to the circumstances and potential consequences of an exit, how the negotiations for the withdrawal and new trade agreements will be conducted, and whether the United Kingdom’s exit will increase the likelihood of other countries also departing the EU, which may increase market volatility across the global economy. During this period of uncertainty, the negative impact on not only the United Kingdom and European economies, but the broader global economy, could be significant, potentially resulting in increased volatility and illiquidity and lower economic growth for companies that rely significantly on the United Kingdom and/or Europe for their business activities and revenues. Any further exits from the EU, or an increase in the belief that such exits are likely or possible, would likely cause additional market disruption globally and introduce new legal and regulatory uncertainties.

In addition, certain European countries have recently experienced negative interest rates on certain fixed-income instruments. A negative interest rate policy is an unconventional central bank monetary policy tool where nominal target interest rates are set with a negative value ( i.e. , below zero percent) intended to help create self-sustaining growth in the local economy. Negative interest rates may result in heightened market volatility and may detract from a Fund’s performance to the extent the Fund is exposed to such interest rates.

Among other things, these developments have adversely affected the value and exchange rate of the euro and pound sterling, 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, particularly Janus Henderson Asia Equity Fund, Janus Henderson Emerging Markets Fund, Janus Henderson European Focus Fund, Janus Henderson Global Equity Income Fund, Janus Henderson Global Life Sciences Fund, Janus Henderson Global Research Fund, Janus Henderson Global Technology Fund, Janus Henderson Global Value Fund, Janus Henderson International Opportunities Fund, Janus Henderson International Small Cap Fund, Janus Henderson International Value Fund, and Janus Henderson Overseas 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 Index ^sm and any other countries specified in a Fund’s prospectus, as applicable. Each of Janus Henderson Global Real Estate Fund and Janus Henderson Global Select Fund will normally limit its investments in emerging market countries to 15% and 30%, respectively, of its net assets. Janus Henderson Global Equity Income Fund does not expect to invest more than 25% of its assets in securities of companies based in emerging markets. Janus Henderson International Small Cap Fund may invest up to 25% of its net assets in securities of issuers located in emerging markets. Such countries include any country that has been determined by an international organization, such as the World Bank, to have a low to middle income economy and/or any country that is not included in the MSCI World Index ^sm , which measures the equity market performance

of developed markets. 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, which are available to foreign investors through the Shanghai-Hong Kong Stock Connect (“Stock Connect”) program, and China B Shares, which may be owned by both Chinese and foreign investors. 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.

A fund with the ability to invest in foreign securities may invest in China A Shares and other eligible securities (“Stock Connect Securities”) listed and traded on the Shanghai Stock Exchange (“SSE”) through the Stock Connect program. Stock Connect is a securities trading and clearing linked program developed by Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing Limited (“HKEC”), the SSE, and the China Securities Depository and Clearing Corporation Limited (“ChinaClear”) to permit mutual stock market access between mainland China and Hong Kong. Hong Kong Securities Clearing Company Limited (“HKSCC”), a clearing house operated by HKEC, acts as nominee for participants, such as a fund, accessing Stock Connect Securities.

Since the relevant regulations governing Stock Connect Securities are relatively new and untested, they are subject to change and there is no certainty as to how they will be applied. In particular, the courts may consider that the nominee or custodian, as registered holder of Stock Connect Securities, has full ownership over the Stock Connect Securities rather than a fund as the underlying beneficial owner. HKSCC, as nominee holder, does not guarantee the title to Stock Connect Securities held through it and is under no obligation to enforce title or other rights associated with ownership on behalf of beneficial owners. Consequently, title to these securities, or the rights associated with them such as participation in corporate actions or shareholder meetings cannot be assured. In the event ChinaClear defaults, HKSCC’s liabilities under its market contracts with participants will be limited to assisting participants with claims and the fund may not fully recover its losses or the Stock Connect Securities it owns. Recovery of the fund’s property may also be subject to delays and expenses, which may be material. Further, investors are currently able to trade Stock Connect Securities only up to certain daily maximums. Buy orders and sell orders are offset for purposes of the daily quota, which is applied to all market participants and not specifically to the funds or investment manager. If the daily quota is reached or a stock is recalled from the scope of eligible stocks for trading via the Stock Connect, a fund’s investment program would be adversely impacted.

Stock Connect will only operate on days when both the Chinese and Hong Kong markets are open for trading and when banks in both markets are open on the corresponding settlement days. Therefore, an investment in China A Shares through Stock Connect may subject a fund to a risk of price fluctuations on days where the Chinese market is open, but Stock Connect is not trading. Trading in the Stock Connect program is subject to trading, clearance and settlement procedures that are untested in China which could pose risks to a fund. Finally, the withholding tax treatment of dividends and capital gains payable to overseas investors currently is unsettled.

Risks of Investments in the People’s Republic of China (“PRC”). In addition to the risks listed under “Foreign Securities” and “Emerging Markets,” investing in the PRC, or having indirect exposure to the 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 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. Compared to most national securities markets, 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. Additionally, because of less stringent auditing and financial reporting standards, as compared to U.S. companies, there may be little reliable corporate information available to investors. As a result, it may be difficult to assess the value or prospects of an investment in Russian companies. Securities of Russian companies also may experience greater price volatility than securities of U.S. companies.

Because of the relatively 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 that Fund to enforce its rights or otherwise remedy the loss.

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.

As a result of political and military actions undertaken by Russia, the United States and certain other countries, as well as the EU, have instituted economic sanctions against certain Russian individuals and companies. The political and economic situation in Russia, and the current and any future sanctions or other government actions against Russia, may result in the decline in the value and liquidity of Russian securities, devaluation of Russian currency, a downgrade in Russia’s credit rating, the inability to freely trade sanctioned companies (either due to the sanctions imposed or related operational issues) and/or other adverse consequences to the Russian economy, any of which could negatively impact a Fund’s investments in Russian securities. Sanctions could result in the immediate freeze of Russian securities, impairing the ability of a Fund to buy, sell, receive or deliver those securities. Both the current and potential future sanctions or other government actions against Russia also could result in Russia taking counter measures or retaliatory actions, which may impair further the value or liquidity of Russian securities and negatively impact a Fund. Any or all of these potential results could lead Russia’s economy into a recession.

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. Many Latin American countries have experienced, at one time or another, considerable difficulties, including high inflation and high interest rates. In addition, the economies of many Latin American countries are sensitive to fluctuations in commodities prices because exports of agricultural products, minerals, and metals represent a significant percentage of Latin American exports.

Some Latin American currencies have experienced steady devaluations relative to the U.S. dollar and certain Latin American countries have had to make major adjustments in their currencies from time to time. In addition, governments of many Latin American countries have exercised and continue to exercise substantial influence over many aspects of the private sector. Governmental actions in the future could have a significant effect on economic conditions in Latin American countries, which could affect the companies in which a Fund invests and, therefore, the value of Fund shares. As noted above, in the past, many Latin American countries have experienced substantial, and in some periods extremely high, rates of inflation for many years. For companies that keep accounting records in the local currency, inflation accounting rules in some Latin American countries require, for both tax and accounting purposes, that certain assets and liabilities be restated on the company’s balance sheet in order to express items in terms of currency of constant purchasing power. Inflation accounting may indirectly generate losses or profits for certain Latin American companies. Inflation and rapid fluctuations in inflation rates have had, and could have, in the future, very negative effects on the economies and securities markets of certain Latin American countries.

Substantial limitations may exist in certain countries with respect to a Fund’s ability to repatriate investment income, capital, or the proceeds of sales of securities. A Fund could be adversely affected by delays in, or a refusal to grant, any required governmental approval for repatriation of capital, as well as by the application to the Fund of any restrictions on investments.

Certain Latin American countries have entered into regional trade agreements that are designed to, among other things, reduce barriers between countries, increase competition among companies, and reduce government subsidies in certain industries. No assurance can be given that these changes will be successful in the long term, or that these changes will result in the economic stability intended. There is a possibility that these trade arrangements will not be fully implemented, or will be partially or completely unwound. It is also possible that a significant participant could choose to abandon a trade agreement, which could diminish its credibility and influence. Any of these occurrences could have adverse effects on the markets of both participating and non-participating countries, including sharp appreciation or depreciation of participants’

national currencies and a significant increase in exchange rate volatility, a resurgence in economic protectionism, an undermining of confidence in the Latin American markets, an undermining of Latin American economic stability, the collapse or slowdown of the drive towards Latin American economic unity, and/or reversion of the attempts to lower government debt and inflation rates that were introduced in anticipation of such trade agreements. Such developments could have an adverse impact on a Fund’s investments in Latin America generally or in specific countries participating in such trade agreements.

Other Latin American market risks include foreign exchange controls, difficulties in pricing securities, defaults on sovereign debt, difficulties in enforcing favorable legal judgments in local courts, and political and social instability. Legal remedies available to investors in certain Latin American countries may be less extensive than those available to investors in the United States or other foreign countries.

Risks of Investments in the Asian Region. In addition to the risks listed under “Foreign Securities” and “Emerging Markets,” investing in the Asian region, or having indirect exposure to Asian securities through derivative investments, presents additional risks. Because Janus Henderson Asia Equity Fund intends to focus its investments in a particular geographic region, the Fund’s performance is expected to be closely tied to various factors such as the social, financial, economic, and political conditions within that region or country. Specifically, a Fund’s investments in Asian issuers increases the Fund’s exposure to various risks including, but not limited to, risks associated with volatile securities markets, currency fluctuations, social, political, and regulatory developments, economic environmental events (such as natural disasters), and changes in tax or economic policies, each of which, among others, may be particular to Asian countries or regions.

If a Fund’s investments focus on Asian issuers, its investments will be more sensitive to social, financial, economic, political, and regulatory developments affecting the fiscal stability of a particular country and/or the broader region. Events that negatively affect the fiscal stability of a particular country and/or the broader region may cause the value of the Fund’s holdings to decrease, in some cases significantly. As a result, that Fund is likely to be more volatile than a fund that is more geographically diverse in its investments.

The Asian region within which a Fund may focus its investments comprises countries in various stages of economic and political development. As a result, some countries may have relatively unstable governments or may experience adverse conditions such as overextension of credit, currency devaluations and restrictions, less efficient markets, rising unemployment, high inflation, underdeveloped financial services sectors, heavy reliance on international trade, prolonged economic recessions, and political instability, including military disruption, which could result in significant downturns and volatility in the economies of Asian countries and therefore have an adverse effect on the value of the Fund’s portfolio. Certain Asian countries may be vulnerable to trade barriers and other protectionist measures. Some countries have restricted the flow of money in and out of the country. Further, if Asian securities fall out of favor, it may cause the Fund to underperform funds that do not focus their investments in a single region of the world.

The trading volume on some Asian stock exchanges tends to be much lower than in the United States, and Asian securities of some companies are less liquid and more volatile than similar U.S. securities which could lead to a significant possibility of loss to the Fund. In addition, brokerage commissions on regional stock exchanges are fixed and are generally higher than the negotiated commissions in the United States.

Short Sales

Certain 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 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. A Fund’s 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 may invest up to 10% 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 (the “Internal Revenue Code”), 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 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. Since that time, 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.

In addition, the future for Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac is uncertain as the U.S. Government is considering multiple options, ranging on a spectrum from significant reform, nationalization, privatization, consolidation, to outright elimination of these entities. Congress is considering several pieces of legislation that would reform Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, proposing to address their structure, mission, portfolio limits, and guarantee fees, among other issues. 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.

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 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 a Fund’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 Funds’ 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 United States 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 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 by a Fund 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. 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.

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 (“ARMBS”), which have interest rates that reset at periodic intervals. Acquiring ARMBS 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 ARMBS are based. Such ARMBS 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 ARMBS, 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, ARMBS 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 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, a Fund 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 Capital 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). A Fund may invest its cash holdings in affiliated or non-affiliated money market funds as part of a cash sweep program. A Fund 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.

Pursuant to the terms of an SEC exemptive order issued to the Trust, a Fund may invest in registered investment companies in excess of the 3% limitations imposed by Sections 12(d)(1)(A) and 12(d)(1)(C) of the 1940 Act. The total amount of securities purchased by a Fund, both individually and when aggregated with all other shares of the acquired fund held by other registered investment companies or private investment pools advised by Janus Capital or its affiliates (as well as shares held by Janus Capital and its affiliates) cannot exceed 25% of the outstanding voting securities of the acquired investment company at the time of purchase, and none of these entities (including a Fund) may individually or collectively exert a controlling influence over the acquired investment company. A Fund may not rely on the order to acquire an investment company that itself has ownership of investment company shares in excess of the limitations contained in Section 12(d)(1)(A) of the 1940 Act, except under certain limited circumstances. To the extent necessary to comply with the

provisions of the 1940 Act or the order, on any matter upon which an underlying investment company’s shareholders are solicited to vote, Janus Capital will vote the underlying investment company shares in the same general proportion as shares held by other shareholders of the underlying investment company.

To the extent a Fund invests in money market funds or other funds, such Fund 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 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 Fund and the underlying funds or investment vehicles. Money market funds are open-end registered investment companies. Money market funds that meet the definition of a retail money market fund or government money market fund compute their price per share using the amortized cost method of valuation to seek to maintain a stable $1.00 price per share, and money market funds that do not meet the definitions of a retail money market fund or government money market fund transact at a floating NAV per share (similar to all other non-money market mutual funds). Money market funds may impose liquidity fees or temporarily suspend the ability to sell shares if the fund’s liquidity falls below certain required minimums because of market conditions or other factors. Amendments to money market fund regulation could impact the trading and value of money market instruments, which may negatively affect a Fund’s return potential.

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.

Equity-Linked Notes

An equity-linked note (“ELN”) is a debt instrument whose value is based on the value of a single equity security, basket of equity securities or an index of equity securities (each, an “underlying equity”). An ELN typically provides interest income, thereby offering a yield advantage over investing directly in an underlying equity. A Fund may purchase ELNs that trade on a securities exchange or those that trade on the over-the-counter (“OTC”) markets, including Rule 144A securities. A Fund may also purchase ELNs in a privately negotiated transaction with the issuer of the ELNs (or its broker-dealer affiliate). A Fund may or may not hold an ELN until its maturity.

Equity-linked securities also include issues such as Structured Yield Product Exchangeable for Stock (STRYPES), Trust Automatic Common Exchange Securities (TRACES), Trust Issued Mandatory Exchange Securities (TIMES) and Trust Enhanced Dividend Securities (TRENDS). The issuers of these equity-linked securities generally purchase and hold a portfolio of stripped U.S. Treasury securities maturing on a quarterly basis through the conversion date, and a forward purchase contract with an existing shareholder of the company relating to the common stock. Quarterly distributions on such equity-linked securities generally consist of the cash received from the U.S. Treasury securities and such equity-linked securities generally are not entitled to any dividends that may be declared on the common stock.

Depositary Receipts

Each Fund 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 Henderson Balanced Fund, may invest in U.S. Government securities. 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.

Inflation-Linked Securities

A Fund may invest in inflation-indexed securities, including municipal inflation-indexed bonds and corporate inflation-indexed bonds, or in derivatives that are linked to these securities. 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 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.

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 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 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. Typically, no income accrues on securities a Fund has committed to purchase prior to the time delivery of the securities is made. 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 the 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, the 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.

A Fund 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. 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. Janus Henderson Global Real Estate Fund may invest a significant amount of its assets in these types of securities. REITs 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 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. 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 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.

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 5% of Janus Henderson Global Technology Fund’s total assets and no more than 20% of Janus Henderson Balanced 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 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.

Corporate Loans. Certain Funds may invest in corporate loans. Corporate loans have the most senior position in a borrower’s capital structure or share the senior position with other senior debt securities of the borrower (“Corporate Loans”). This capital structure position generally gives holders of Corporate Loans a priority claim on some or all of the borrower’s assets in the event of default. Most of a Fund’s Corporate Loans investments will be secured by specific assets of the borrower. Corporate Loans also have contractual terms designed to protect lenders. Each applicable Fund generally acquires Corporate Loans of borrowers that, in Janus Capital’s or the subadviser’s judgment, can make timely payments on their Corporate Loans and that satisfy other credit standards established by Janus Capital or a subadviser. Nevertheless, investing in Corporate Loans does involve investment risk, and some borrowers default on their loan payments. The Funds attempt to manage these risks through careful analyses and monitoring of borrowers.

There is less readily available, reliable information about most Corporate Loans than is the case for many other types of securities. In addition, there is no minimum rating or other independent evaluation of a borrower or its securities, and thus Janus Capital or a subadviser relies primarily on its own evaluation of borrower credit quality rather on any available independent source. As a result, each Fund is particularly dependent on the analytical abilities of Janus Capital or a subadviser, as applicable.

Corporate Loans generally are not listed on any national securities exchange or automated quotation system and no active trading market exists for many Corporate Loans. As a result, Corporate Loans are illiquid, meaning that a Fund may not be able to sell them quickly at a fair price. In addition, the market for Corporate Loans, if any, could be disrupted in the event of an economic downturn or a substantial increase or decrease in the interest rates. However, many Corporate Loans are of a large principal amount and are held by a large number of owners. In the opinion of each of Janus Capital and the applicable subadviser, this should enhance their liquidity.

A Fund may acquire Corporate Loans of borrowers that are experiencing, or are more likely to experience, financial difficulty, including Corporate Loans issued in highly leveraged transactions. The Funds may even acquire and retain in its portfolio Corporate Loans of borrowers that have filed for bankruptcy protection. Because of the protective terms of Corporate Loans, each of Janus Capital and the applicable subadviser believes that a Fund is more likely to recover more of its investment in a defaulted Corporate Loan than would be the case for most other types of defaulted debt securities. Nevertheless, even in the case of collateralized Corporate Loans, there is no assurance that sale of the collateral would raise enough cash to satisfy the borrower’s payment obligation or that the collateral can or will be liquidated. In the case of bankruptcy, liquidation may not occur and the court may not give lenders the full benefit of their senior position. Uncollateralized Corporate Loans involve a greater risk of loss.

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.

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 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, a Fund may determine not to receive confidential information. Such a decision may place the 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 the 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, certain Funds 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.). To the extent a Fund invests in high-yield/high-risk bonds (also known as “junk” bonds), under normal circumstances, each of the Funds indicated will limit its investments in such bonds to 35% or less of its net assets (Janus Henderson Global Life Sciences Fund, Janus Henderson Global Real Estate Fund, Janus Henderson Global Research Fund, Janus Henderson Global Select Fund, Janus Henderson Global Technology Fund, Janus Henderson Global Value Fund, Janus Henderson International Value Fund, Janus Henderson Overseas Fund, Janus Henderson Balanced Fund, Janus Henderson Enterprise Fund, Janus Henderson Forty Fund, Janus Henderson Growth and Income Fund, Janus Henderson Research Fund, Janus Henderson Triton Fund, and Janus Henderson Venture Fund) or 20% or less of its net assets (Janus Henderson Asia Equity Fund and Janus Henderson Contrarian Fund).

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.

Please refer to the “Explanation of Rating Categories” section of this SAI for a description of bond rating categories.

Defaulted Securities

Certain Funds 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. 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 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 purposes (to

earn income and seek to enhance returns). 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 or the subadviser’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. A public market exists in futures contracts covering a number of indices as well as financial instruments and foreign currencies, including, but not limited to: the S&P 500 ^® ; the S&P Midcap 400 ^® ; the Nikkei 225; the Markit CDX credit index; the iTraxx credit index; U.S. Treasury bonds; U.S. Treasury notes; U.S. Treasury bills; 90-day commercial paper; bank certificates of deposit; the LIBOR interest rate; the Euro Bund; Eurodollar certificates of deposit; the Australian dollar; the Canadian dollar; the British pound; the Japanese yen; the Swiss franc; the Mexican peso; and certain multinational currencies, such as the euro. It is expected that other futures contracts will be developed and traded in the future.

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 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.

Neither the CFTC, National Futures Association (“NFA”), SEC, nor any domestic exchange regulates activities of any foreign exchange or boards of trade, including the execution, delivery, and clearing of transactions, or has the power to compel enforcement of the rules of a foreign exchange or board of trade or any applicable foreign law. This is true even if the exchange is formally linked to a domestic market so that a position taken on the market may be liquidated by a transaction on another market. Moreover, such laws or regulations will vary depending on the foreign country in which the foreign futures or foreign options transaction occurs. For these reasons, a Fund’s investments in foreign futures transactions may not be provided the same protections in respect of transactions on U.S. exchanges. In particular, a Fund that trades foreign futures contracts may not be afforded certain of the protective measures provided by the Commodity Exchange Act, as amended (the “Commodity Exchange Act”), the CFTC’s regulations and the rules of the NFA and any domestic exchange, including the right to use reparations proceedings before the CFTC and arbitration proceedings provided by the NFA or any domestic futures exchange. Similarly, such Fund may not have the protection of the U.S. securities laws.

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 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 the Fund’s returns. Janus Capital is registered as a commodity pool operator in connection with the operation of one or more other Janus Henderson mutual funds which do not qualify for the Rule 4.5 exemption. Additionally, Janus Henderson Global Real Estate Fund may have investments in certain securitized vehicles and/or mortgage REITs that may invest in commodity-related investments and which, in turn, may be considered commodity pools. Janus Capital has no transparency into the holdings of these “underlying funds,” and Janus Capital has filed a claim with the CFTC to rely on available relief to delay any regulation as a “commodity pool operator” with respect to Janus Henderson Global Real Estate Fund which expires six months from the date on which the CFTC issues additional guidance on the treatment of commodity-related investments held by such “underlying funds.” To date, the CFTC has not issued additional guidance with respect to such 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. 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.

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 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 two 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 positions.

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. 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 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 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, a Fund may cross-hedge its U.S. dollar exposure in order to achieve a representative weighted mix of the major currencies in its benchmark index and/or to cover an underweight country or region exposure in its 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.

At the maturity of a currency or cross currency forward, a Fund may exchange the currencies specified at the maturity of a forward contract or, prior to maturity, the Fund may enter into a closing transaction involving the purchase or sale of an offsetting contract. Closing transactions with respect to forward contracts are usually effected with the counterparty to the original forward contract. A Fund may also enter into forward currency contracts that do not provide for physical settlement of the two currencies but instead provide for settlement by a single cash payment calculated as the difference between the agreed upon exchange rate and the spot rate at settlement based upon an agreed upon notional amount (non-deliverable forwards).

Under definitions adopted by the CFTC and SEC, non-deliverable forwards are considered swaps, and therefore are included in the definition of “commodity interests.” Although non-deliverable forwards have historically been traded in the OTC market, as swaps they may in the future be required to be centrally cleared and traded on public facilities.

Forward currency contracts that qualify as deliverable forwards are not regulated as swaps for most purposes. However, these forwards are subject to some requirements applicable to swaps, including reporting to swap data repositories, documentation requirements, and business conduct rules applicable to swap dealers.

As a result of current or future regulation, 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 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 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 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 national securities exchanges (“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 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 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 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 an 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.

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, 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 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 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 ETFs; 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).

Swap agreements entail the risk that a party will default on its payment obligations to a Fund. If there is a default by the other party to such a transaction, the 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 of 2010 (the “Dodd-Frank Act”) now requires certain swap agreements to be centrally cleared. 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.

Some types of swaps are required to be executed on an exchange or on a swap execution facility. A swap execution facility is a trading platform where multiple market participants can execute derivatives by accepting bids and offers made by multiple other participants in the platform. While this execution requirement is designed to increase transparency and liquidity in the cleared derivatives market, trading on a swap execution facility can create additional costs and risks for a Fund. For example, swap execution facilities typically charge fees, and if a Fund executes derivatives on a swap execution facility through a broker intermediary, the intermediary may impose fees as well. Also, a Fund may indemnify a swap execution facility, or a broker intermediary who executes cleared derivatives on a swap execution facility on the Fund’s behalf, against any losses or costs that may be incurred as a result of the Fund’s transactions on the swap execution facility. If a Fund wishes to execute a package of transactions that includes a swap that is required to be executed on a swap execution facility as well as other transactions (for example, a transaction that includes both a security and an interest rate swap that hedges interest rate exposure with respect to such security), it is possible the Fund could not execute all components of the package on the swap execution facility. In that case, the Fund would need to trade certain components of the package on the swap execution facility and other components of the package in another manner, which could subject the Fund to the risk that certain of the components of the package would be executed successfully and others would not, or that the components would be executed at different times, leaving the Fund with an unhedged position for a period of time.

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. 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.

There is no limit on the number 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 under “Segregation of Assets.” 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 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 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.

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.

Certain underlying funds may invest in commodity-linked or commodity index-linked securities which have principal and/or coupon payments linked to the value of commodities, commodity futures contracts, or the performance of commodity indices, such as the Goldman Sachs Commodities Index. They are sometimes referred to as structured investments because the terms of the instrument may be structured by the issuer of the instrument and the purchaser of the instrument. The value of these instruments will rise or fall in response to changes in the underlying commodity or related index or investment. An underlying fund’s investment in these instruments exposes the underlying fund and the Fund to the commodities market and the risks associated with commodities underlying the instrument without investing directly in physical commodities. An underlying fund’s indirect exposure to commodities may be limited by the underlying fund’s intention to qualify as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code.

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.

Significant Market Events. Economic downturns can prompt various economic, legal, budgetary, tax, and regulatory reforms across the globe. The 2008 financial crisis in both the U.S. and global economies resulted, in significant declines in value and liquidity worldwide across 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 a number of unprecedented steps designed to support the financial markets. The conclusion of this support, and/or failure of the measures put in place could negatively affect financial markets generally, as well as 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.

Policy and legislative changes in the United States and in other countries continue to impact many aspects of financial regulation. For example, the enactment of the Dodd-Frank Act in 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 expanded federal oversight in the financial sector, including the investment management industry. Certain provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act remain pending.

The effect of these changes on the markets, and the practical implications for market participants, including the Funds, 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 value of a Fund’s holdings is also generally subject to the risk of significant future local, national, or global economic disruptions or slowdowns in the markets in which a Fund invests. In the event of such an occurrence, the issuers of securities held by a Fund may experience significant declines in the value of their assets and even cease operations, or may require government assistance that is contingent on increased restrictions on their business operations or their government interventions. In addition, it is not certain that the U.S. government or foreign governments will intervene in response to a future market disruption and the effect of any such future intervention cannot be predicted.

Concentration Risk. To the extent a Fund focuses its investments in any single type of investment, including in a given industry, sector, country, region, or types of security, companies in its portfolio may share common characteristics and react similarly to market developments. For example, changes in government funding or subsidies, new or anticipated legislative changes, or technological advances could affect the value of such companies and, therefore, the Fund’s net asset value. As a result, the Fund may be subject to greater risks and its net asset value may fluctuate more than a fund that does not concentrate its 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 or due to a restructuring of a Fund’s portfolio as a result of a change in portfolio management. 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 tables summarize the portfolio turnover rates for the Funds for the last two fiscal years, unless otherwise noted.

Portfolio Holdings Disclosure Policies and Procedures

•	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 Henderson representative at 1-877-335-2687 (toll free) (or 1-800-525-3713 if you hold Class D Shares). Portfolio holdings consisting of at least the names of the holdings are generally available on a monthly basis with a 30-day lag. Holdings are generally posted approximately two business days thereafter under Full Holdings for each Fund at janushenderson.com/info (or janushenderson.com/reports if you hold Class D Shares).
•	Top Holdings. Each Fund’s 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.
•	Other Information . Each Fund may occasionally provide security breakdowns (e.g., industry, sector, regional, market capitalization, and asset allocation), top performance contributors/detractors, 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. Top performance contributors/detractors may include the percentage of contribution/detraction to Fund performance. For Janus Henderson Balanced Fund, top/bottom fixed-income issuers ranked by performance attribution, including the percentage of attribution to Fund performance, average Fund weighting, and other relevant data points, may be provided monthly with a 15-day lag and on a calendar quarter-end basis with a 15-day lag.

The Janus Henderson 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 Henderson 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 Henderson fund’s portfolio holdings includes a provision that portfolio holdings are the confidential property of that Janus Henderson fund and may not be shared 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 Henderson 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 Henderson 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 Henderson 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 Henderson funds shall be pre-approved by the Chief Compliance Officer or a designee.

To the best knowledge of the Janus Henderson 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. Certain of the arrangements below reflect relationships of one or more subadvisers and their products.

In addition to the categories of persons and names of persons described above who may receive nonpublic portfolio holdings information, brokers executing portfolio trades on behalf of the funds may receive nonpublic portfolio holdings information. Under no circumstance does Janus Capital, a Janus Henderson mutual fund, or other party receive any compensation in connection with the arrangements to release portfolio holdings information to any of the described recipients of the information.

Janus Capital manages other accounts such as separately managed accounts, other pooled investment vehicles, non-U.S. registered investment companies, and funds sponsored by companies other than Janus Capital. These other accounts may be managed in a similar fashion to certain Janus Henderson funds and thus may have similar portfolio holdings. Such accounts may be subject to different portfolio holdings disclosure policies that permit public disclosure of portfolio holdings information in different forms and at different times than the Funds’ portfolio holdings disclosure policies. Additionally, clients of such accounts have access to their portfolio holdings, and may not be subject to the Funds’ portfolio holdings disclosure policies.

Investment adviser and subadviser

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 an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Janus Henderson Group plc (“JHG”). Janus Capital Group Inc., the direct parent of Janus Capital, completed a strategic combination with Henderson Group plc on May 30, 2017 to form JHG, doing business as Janus Henderson Investors.

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 Geneva or Perkins pursuant to subadvisory agreements (“Sub-Advisory Agreements”) between Janus Capital and the subadviser.

In rendering investment advisory services to Janus Henderson Asia Equity Fund, Janus Henderson Emerging Markets Fund, Janus Henderson European Focus Fund, Janus Henderson Global Equity Income Fund, Janus Henderson Global Real Estate Fund, Janus Henderson International Opportunities Fund, and Janus Henderson International Small Cap Fund, Janus Capital may use the portfolio management, research, and other resources of Henderson Global Investors Limited, Henderson Global Investors (Singapore) Ltd., or Henderson Global Investors (Japan) Ltd. (collectively, “HGIL”), foreign (non-U.S.) affiliates of Janus Capital. One or more HGIL employees may provide services to the Funds through a “participating affiliate” arrangement, as that term is used in formal guidance issued by the staff of the SEC allowing U.S. registered investment advisers to use portfolio management or research resources of advisory affiliates subject to the regulatory supervision of the registered investment adviser. Under the participating affiliate arrangement, HGIL and its employees are considered “associated persons” of Janus Capital (as that term is defined in the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended) and investment professionals from HGIL may render portfolio management, research, and other services to the Funds, subject to supervision of Janus Capital. The responsibilities of both Janus Capital and HGIL under the participating affiliate arrangement are documented in a memorandum of understanding between the two entities.

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 some or all of 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 that Janus Capital (or the subadviser, as applicable) 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 pursuant to an expense limitation agreement 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 each Fund’s annual report (for the period ending September 30) or semiannual report (for the period ending March 31) 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 Henderson 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 janushenderson.com/info (or janushenderson.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 based on the Fund’s relative performance compared to the cumulative investment record of its benchmark index over a 36-month performance measurement period. 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 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 1/12 ^th 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 1/12 ^th 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 1/12 ^th 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 1/12 ^th of 0.225% of $200 million.

Therefore, the total advisory fee rate for that month, as a percentage of average net assets during the preceding month, would be approximately 1/12 ^th of 0.975% in the case of outperformance, or approximately 1/12 ^th 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 1/12 ^th 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 1/12 ^th 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 1/12 ^th 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 1/12 ^th of 0.694% in the case of outperformance, or approximately 1/12 ^th 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:

Fund Name	Benchmark Index	Base Fee Rate (%) (annual rate)
Janus Henderson Global Research Fund	MSCI World Index ^sm ⁽¹⁾	0.60
Janus Henderson Contrarian Fund	S&P 500 ^® Index ⁽²⁾	0.64
Janus Henderson Research Fund	Russell 1000 ^® Growth Index ⁽³⁾	0.64
Janus Henderson Global Real Estate Fund	FTSE EPRA/NAREIT Global Index ⁽⁴⁾	0.75
Janus Henderson Global Value Fund	MSCI World Index ^sm ⁽¹⁾	0.64 ⁽⁵⁾
Janus Henderson Forty Fund	Russell 1000 ^® Growth Index ⁽³⁾	0.64
Janus Henderson Overseas Fund	MSCI All Country World ex-U.S. Index ^sm ⁽⁶⁾	0.64
Janus Henderson Asia Equity Fund	MSCI All Country Asia ex-Japan Index ⁽⁷⁾	0.92

(1)	The MSCI World Index ^sm is a free float-adjusted market capitalization weighted index that is designed to measure the equity market performance of developed market countries in North America, Europe, and the Asia/Pacific Region. The index includes reinvestment of dividends, net of foreign withholding taxes.
(2)	The Standard & Poor’s (“S&P”) 500 ^® Index is a commonly recognized market-capitalization weighted index of 500 widely held equity securities, designed to measure broad U.S. equity performance.
(3)	The Russell 1000 ^® Growth Index measures the performance of those Russell 1000 ^® companies with higher price-to-book ratios and higher forecasted growth values.
(4)	The FTSE EPRA/NAREIT Global Index is a global market capitalization weighted index composed of listed real estate securities in the North American, European, Asian, and South American real estate markets including both developed and emerging markets.
(5)	Janus Capital pays Perkins, the Fund’s subadviser, a fee for its services provided pursuant to a Sub-Advisory Agreement between Janus Capital and Perkins, on behalf of the Fund. The subadvisory fee paid by Janus Capital to Perkins adjusts up or down based on the Fund’s performance relative to its benchmark index over the performance measurement period. Under the Sub-Advisory Agreement, Janus Capital pays Perkins a fee equal to 50% of the investment advisory fee paid by the Fund to Janus Capital (net of any performance fee adjustments).
(6)	The MSCI All Country World ex-U.S. Index ^sm is an unmanaged, free float-adjusted, market capitalization weighted index composed of stocks of companies located in countries throughout the world, excluding the United States. It is designed to measure equity market performance in global developed and emerging markets outside the United States. The index includes reinvestment of dividends, net of foreign withholding taxes.
(7)	The MSCI All Country Asia ex-Japan Index is a free float-adjusted market capitalization weighted index that is designed to measure the equity market performance of Asia, excluding Japan. The index includes reinvestment of dividends, net of foreign withholding taxes.

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 September 30, 2017 are shown below.

The Fund has a performance-based investment advisory fee with a rate that adjusts up or down based upon the Fund’s performance relative to its 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.

The following tables summarize the investment advisory fees paid by each Fund and any advisory fee waivers in effect during the fiscal periods shown.

Geneva Capital Management

Geneva Capital Management LLC

Janus Capital has entered into a Sub-Advisory Agreement with Geneva 100 E. Wisconsin Ave., Suite 2550, Milwaukee, WI 53202, on behalf of Janus Henderson U.S. Growth Opportunities Fund.

Geneva is an SEC registered investment adviser and is an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of JHG. As a global money manager, Geneva provides a full spectrum of investment products and services to institutions and individuals around the world. Geneva has been managing assets for clients since 1987. Geneva is a multi-skill, multi-asset management business with a worldwide distribution network.

Under the Sub-Advisory Agreement between Janus Capital and Geneva, Geneva is responsible for the day-to-day investment operations of Janus Henderson U.S. Growth Opportunities 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. Geneva is also obligated to: (i) place all orders for the purchase and sale of investments for the Fund with brokers or dealers selected by Geneva; (ii) perform certain limited related administrative functions; (iii) provide the Trustees with oral or written reports regarding the investment portfolio of the Fund; and (iv) maintain all books and records required under federal securities law relating to day-to-day portfolio management of the Fund.

Under the Sub-Advisory Agreement, Janus Capital pays Geneva a fee equal to 50% of the advisory fee payable by Janus Henderson U.S. Growth Opportunities Fund to Janus Capital (net of any reimbursement of expenses incurred or fees waived by Janus Capital).

The Sub-Advisory Agreement with Geneva 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 Fund’s Trustees or the affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund. The Sub-Advisory Agreement is subject to termination at any time, without penalty, by the Trustees, the vote of at least a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund, or Janus Capital, upon 60 days’ advance written notice, or by Geneva by giving 90 days’ advance written notice to the other party (Geneva shall allow up to an additional 90 days at the request of Janus Capital or the Trust in order to find a replacement for Geneva), or by Janus Capital or the Trust without advance notice if Geneva is unable to discharge its duties and obligations. The Fund’s Sub-Advisory Agreement terminates automatically in the event of the assignment or termination of the Fund’s respective Investment Advisory Agreement. The 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 the Fund.

Perkins Investment Management LLC

Janus Capital has entered into Sub-Advisory Agreements with Perkins Investment Management LLC, 311 S. Wacker Drive, Suite 6000, Chicago, Illinois 60606, on behalf of Janus Henderson Global Value Fund (formerly named Perkins Global Value Fund) and Janus Henderson International Value Fund (formerly named Perkins International Value 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 Janus Henderson Global Value Fund and Janus Henderson International 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. 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 Janus Henderson Global Value Fund and Janus Henderson International Value Fund to Janus Capital (calculated after any applicable performance fee adjustments for Janus Henderson Global Value Fund; and after any reimbursement of expenses incurred or fees waived for Janus Henderson International Value Fund).

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.

Performance-Based SubAdvisory Fee

Janus Henderson Global Value Fund has an investment advisory fee rate that adjusts up or down based upon the performance of the Fund’s Class A Shares (waiving the upfront sales load) relative to the cumulative performance of the MSCI World Index ^sm , the Fund’s benchmark index, over a 36-month performance measurement period. In accordance with the Sub-Advisory Agreement, Perkins receives a fee from Janus Capital equal to 50% of the advisory fee payable to Janus Capital from the Fund (net of any applicable performance fee adjustment).

Subadvisory Fees

Under each Sub-Advisory Agreement, each respective subadviser was compensated according to the following schedule for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2017. Janus Capital, not the Funds listed below, compensates each respective subadviser.

Fund Name	Subadviser	Average Daily Net Assets of the Fund ⁽¹⁾	Subadvisory Fee Rate (%)
Global & International Equity
Janus Henderson Global Value Fund	Perkins	N/A	0.32 ⁽²⁾
Janus Henderson International Value Fund	Perkins	All Asset Levels	0.40 ⁽³⁾
Multi-Asset U.S. Equity
Janus Henderson U.S. Growth Opportunities Fund	Geneva	First $1 Billion Next $1 Billion Over $2 Billion	0.375 ⁽³⁾ 0.35 ⁽³⁾ 0.325 ⁽³⁾

(1)	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.
(2)	Prior to any performance adjustment, if applicable.
(3)	Prior to the reimbursement of expenses paid or fees waived by Janus Capital, if applicable.

Each subadviser has agreed to share reimbursement of expenses paid or fees waived with Janus Capital.

Payments to Financial Intermediaries By Janus Capital or Its Affiliates

In addition to payments made under 12b-1 plans, Janus Capital and its affiliates make payments out of their own assets to selected broker-dealer firms or other financial intermediaries that sell certain classes of Shares of Janus Henderson 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 Henderson 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 Henderson 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 share class or share classes selected by the financial intermediary for a particular channel, platform or investor type, whether such class is open to new investors on a particular platform or channel, 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 are Advisor Group, Inc. and its broker-dealer subsidiaries; American Enterprise Investment 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.; RBC Capital Markets, LLC; UBS Financial Services Inc.; Wells Fargo Clearing Services, LLC; and Wells Fargo Advisors Financial Network, LLC. 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 dba Janus Henderson Distributors (“Janus Henderson 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 Henderson 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 periodically share certain marketing expenses with selected 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 make payments to participate in selected 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 Henderson 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 Henderson funds to enable the intermediaries and their salespersons to make suitable recommendations, provide useful services, and maintain the necessary infrastructure to make the Janus Henderson funds available to their customers.

over sales of another Janus Henderson 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 Henderson 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 Henderson funds in various ways within such financial intermediary’s organization.

The payment arrangements described above will not change the price an investor pays for Shares nor the amount that a Janus Henderson 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 Subadviser

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 a subadviser, as applicable), 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. The Primary Offering allocation procedures generally require that all securities purchased in a Primary Offering be allocated to all participating accounts based upon a portfolio manager’s or the investment personnel’s initial indication of interest (i.e., the desired number of securities or the aggregate amount to be invested). 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 the Primary Offering allocation procedures, Janus Capital may deviate from these procedures 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.

Geneva also has adopted procedures with respect to the initial public offerings of equity securities. Such procedures generally require that all shares purchased in an initial public offering of equity securities be allocated on a strict pro rata basis.

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 Henderson 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 portfolio 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 Henderson funds and accounts.

Perkins, the subadviser for Janus Henderson Global Value Fund and Janus Henderson International Value Fund, may buy and sell securities or engage in other investments on behalf of multiple clients, including the Funds. Perkins seeks to allocate trades among their 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 Henderson mutual funds may participate in an affiliated or non-affiliated cash sweep program. In the cash sweep program, uninvested cash balances of Janus Henderson funds may be used to purchase shares of affiliated or non-affiliated money market funds or cash management pooled investment vehicles. All Janus Henderson 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 subadviser 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.

The officers and Trustees of the Janus Henderson funds may also serve as officers and Trustees of the Janus Capital “funds of funds,” which are funds that primarily invest in other Janus Henderson mutual funds. Conflicts may arise as the officers and Trustees seek to fulfill their fiduciary responsibilities to both the Janus Capital funds of funds and the other Janus Henderson mutual funds. The Trustees intend to address any such conflicts as deemed appropriate.

Janus Henderson Personal Code of Ethics

Janus Capital, Geneva, Perkins, and Janus Henderson Distributors currently have in place the Personal Code of Ethics, which is comprised of the Personal Account Dealing Policy, the Gift and Entertainment Received Policy, the Outside Business Activities Policy, and the Political Activities Policy. The Personal Code of Ethics is designed to ensure Janus Capital, Geneva, Perkins, and Janus Henderson 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 Personal Code of Ethics 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 Personal Code of Ethics is on file with and available from the SEC through the SEC website at http://www.sec.gov.

Under the Personal Account Dealing Policy, all Janus Capital, Geneva, Perkins, and Janus Henderson 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, Geneva, Perkins, and Janus Henderson

Distributors personnel are not permitted to transact in securities held by the Funds for their personal accounts except under circumstances specified in the Personal Account Dealing Policy. All personnel of Janus Capital, Geneva, Perkins, Janus Henderson 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 Account Dealing Policy.

In addition to the pre-clearance requirement described above, the Personal Account Dealing Policy subjects such personnel to various trading restrictions and reporting obligations. All reportable transactions are reviewed for compliance with the Personal Account Dealing Policy and under certain circumstances Janus Capital, Geneva, Perkins, and Janus Henderson Distributors personnel may be required to forfeit profits made from personal trading.

Janus Capital Management LLC
Proxy Voting Summary For Mutual Funds

Proxy Voting Procedures (All Funds except Janus Henderson Asia Equity Fund, Janus Henderson Emerging Markets Fund, Janus Henderson European Focus Fund, Janus Henderson Global Equity Income Fund, Janus Henderson Global Real Estate Fund, Janus Henderson Global Value Fund, Janus Henderson International Opportunities Fund, Janus Henderson International Small Cap Fund, Janus Henderson International Value Fund, and Janus Henderson U.S. Growth Opportunities Fund)

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.

Janus Capital has developed proxy voting guidelines (the “Janus Capital Guidelines”) that outline how Janus Capital generally votes proxies on securities held by the portfolios Janus Capital manages. The Janus Capital Guidelines, which include recommendations on most major corporate issues, have been developed by the Janus Proxy Voting Committee (the “Proxy Voting Committee”) in 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 Capital 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 Capital 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 Capital 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 Capital Guidelines; however, a portfolio manager has discretion to vote differently than the Janus Capital 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 Capital Guidelines to vote mutual fund proxies should, in most cases, adequately address any possible conflicts of interest since the Janus Capital 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 Capital Guidelines. On a quarterly basis, the Proxy Voting Committee reviews records of any votes that were cast differently than the Janus Capital 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 Capital 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 (All Funds except Janus Henderson Asia Equity Fund, Janus Henderson Emerging Markets Fund, Janus Henderson European Focus Fund, Janus Henderson Global Equity Income Fund, Janus Henderson Global Real Estate Fund, Janus Henderson Global Value Fund, Janus Henderson International Opportunities Fund, Janus Henderson International Small Cap Fund, Janus Henderson International Value Fund, and Janus Henderson U.S. Growth Opportunities Fund)

As discussed above, the Proxy Voting Committee has developed the Janus Capital Guidelines for use in voting proxies. Below is a summary of some of the Janus Capital 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.

Equity and Executive Compensation Issues

Janus Capital reviews equity 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 and identify plan features and grant practices that demonstrate good stewardship of investors’ interests regarding executive compensation. Janus Capital will generally vote against plans if the estimated cost is above the allowable cap (an industry-specific, market cap-based amount calculated by the Proxy Voting Service) and/or plan features and grant practices are determined to be misaligned with maximizing shareholder value. 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 Janus Capital).

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 or are structured in such a way that they give shareholders the ultimate decision on any proposal or offer, and are proposed in a transparent and independent fashion. 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 Capital Guidelines, Janus Capital will generally vote pursuant to that Janus Capital Guideline. Janus Capital’s first priority is to act as a fiduciary in the best financial interests of its clients. Janus Capital recognizes that environmental, social, moral, or ethical issues present risks and opportunities that can have an impact on company financial performance. Janus Capital strives to balance these issues in a manner consistent with its fiduciary obligations. Janus Capital will generally vote with management on these matters unless it identifies areas of weakness or deficiency relative to peers and/or industry best practices or it feels that management has failed to adequately respond to shareholder concerns. In such instances Janus Capital will review these matters on a case-by-case basis, consistent with its fiduciary obligations to clients. Janus Capital will solicit additional research from its Proxy Voting Service for proposals outside the scope of the Janus Capital Guidelines.

Proxy Voting Policy and Procedures (Janus Henderson Asia Equity Fund, Janus Henderson Emerging Markets Fund, Janus Henderson European Focus Fund, Janus Henderson Global Equity Income Fund, Janus Henderson Global Real Estate Fund, Janus Henderson International Opportunities Fund, and Janus Henderson International Small Cap Fund)

General Policy. It is the intent of Janus Capital that proxies for the Funds should be voted consistent with each Fund’s best economic interests. Janus Capital believes that in order to achieve long-term success, companies need not only to conceive and execute appropriate business strategies, but also to maintain high standards of corporate governance and corporate responsibility. HGIL has engaged RiskMetrics Group, an independent proxy voting service, to assist in the voting of the Funds’ proxies through the provision of vote analysis, implementation, and recordkeeping and disclosure services. With respect to the Funds, Janus Capital has also contracted Institutional Shareholder Services Europe Ltd. (“ISS”), an independent proxy voting service provider, to provide policy development, research, advisory and voting disclosure services, as well as BNP Paribas Securities Services plc, to provide proxy voting services. BNP Paribas Securities Services plc is provided with voting services by ISS.

The Corporate Governance Manager at HGIL, acting on behalf of the Funds, is responsible for the implementation of the Proxy Voting Policies.

Voting and Use of Proxy Voting Service. The procedure for casting proxy votes is as follows: (1) custodians notify ISS of forthcoming company meetings and send proxy materials; (2) ISS notifies the Corporate Governance Manager at HGIL of meetings; (3) ISS provides voting recommendations based on the relevant proxy voting policies; (4) the corporate governance manager consults with fund managers as appropriate to decide whether to accept or override the voting recommendations provided by ISS; and (5) voting instructions are sent to custodians for execution.

Conflicts of Interest. With respect to the Funds, Janus Capital has adopted the following procedures and controls to avoid conflicts of interest that may arise in connection with proxy voting:

•	For each director, officer and employee of HGIL (a “HGIL Person”), the interests of the Funds’ clients must come first, ahead of the interest of Janus Capital and any person within the organization, which includes HGIL and its affiliates.
•	Accordingly, each HGIL Person must not put “personal benefit”, whether tangible or intangible, before the interests of clients of the Funds or otherwise take advantage of the relationship to the Funds’ clients. “Personal benefit” includes any intended benefit for oneself or any other individual, company, group or organization of any kind whatsoever except a benefit for a client of the Funds, as appropriate. It is imperative that each of HGIL’s directors, officers and employees avoid any situation that might compromise, or call into question, the exercise of fully independent judgment in the interests of the Funds’ clients.
•	Occasions may arise where a person or organization involved in the proxy voting process may have a conflict of interest. A conflict of interest may exist if HGIL has a business relationship with (or is actively soliciting business from) either the company soliciting the proxy or a third party that has a material interest in the outcome of a proxy vote or that is actively lobbying for a particular outcome of a proxy vote. Any individual with knowledge of an actual or potential conflict of interest relating to a particular referral item shall disclose that conflict to the Head of Compliance.
•	It is the responsibility of each director, officer and employee of HGIL to report any real or potential conflict of interest to the Head of Compliance who shall present any such information to the Proxy Committee. However, once a particular conflict has been reported to the Head of Compliance, this requirement shall be deemed satisfied with respect to all individuals with knowledge of such conflict. In addition, all HGIL Persons shall certify annually as to their compliance with this policy.

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 HGIL’s Proxy Committee, which is composed of HGIL’s Head of Equities, the Corporate Governance Manager, and the Head of Compliance. To the extent that a conflict of interest is identified, HGIL will review the issue and instruct ISS to: (1) vote based on ISS’ recommendation, (2) vote in the same proportion as the other shareholders, (3) abstain from voting entirely, (4) vote in accordance with the recommendation of the investment professional responsible for the account, or (5) vote in another manner as the Proxy Committee deems fit.

Geneva Capital Management
Proxy Voting Summary For Janus Henderson U.S. Growth Opportunities Fund

The following are the procedures for Geneva, with respect to the voting of proxies on behalf of Janus Henderson U.S. Growth Opportunities Fund, and the keeping of records relating to proxy voting.

General Policy. It is the intent of Geneva that proxies should be voted consistent with the best interests of the shareholder. Geneva views proxy voting as a mechanism for shareholders to protect and promote shareholder wealth. Accordingly, Geneva will vote proxies in a manner designed to maximize the economic value of the shareholders’ investment. Geneva has engaged Glass, Lewis & Co., LLC (“Glass-Lewis”), an independent proxy voting service, to assist in the voting of the Fund’s proxies through the provision of vote analysis, implementation, and recordkeeping and disclosure services.

General Voting Guidelines. Geneva has adopted Glass-Lewis’ Proxy Paper Guidelines (“Guidelines”) as well as Glass-Lewis’ Taft Hartley Addendum to determine how each issue on proxy ballots is to be voted. When instructed by a client, the Taft Hartley Addendum will be utilized. Guidelines are incorporated herein by this reference, and a copy of the Guidelines, as revised from time to time, is maintained with Geneva’s proxy voting records. Geneva has determined that the Guidelines are consistent with the General Policy described above, and has instructed Glass-Lewis to vote in accordance with the Guidelines unless the following conditions apply:

1.	Geneva’s investment strategy group has decided to override the Glass-Lewis vote recommendation for a client based on its own determination that the client would best be served with a vote contrary to the Glass-Lewis recommendation. Such decision will be documented by Geneva and communicated to Glass-Lewis; or
2.	Glass-Lewis does not provide a vote recommendation, in which case Geneva will independently determine how a particular issue should be voted. In these instances, Geneva, through its investment strategy group, will document the reason(s) used in determining a vote and communicate Geneva’s voting instruction to Glass-Lewis.

As a general matter, securities on loan will not be recalled to facilitate proxy voting (in which case the borrower of the security shall be entitled to vote the proxy). However, if the investment strategy group is aware of an item in time to recall the security and has determined in good faith that the importance of the matter to be voted upon is so significant that it materially outweighs the loss in lending revenue that would result from recalling the security (i.e., if there is a controversial upcoming merger or acquisition that may have a significant impact on the value of the security or some other similarly significant matter), Geneva will attempt to recall the security for voting.

Conflicts of Interest. Unless Geneva votes a proxy proposal pursuant to paragraph 1 or 2 under the section entitled “General Voting Guidelines,” Geneva does not address material conflicts of interest that could arise between Geneva and its clients. Since Geneva relies on Glass-Lewis to cast proxy votes independently, pursuant to the Guidelines, Geneva has determined that any potential conflict of interest between Geneva and its clients is adequately mitigated.

However, when Geneva is involved in making the determination as to how a particular proxy ballot will be voted pursuant to paragraph 1 or 2 under General Voting Guidelines, above, the analyst for the company in question will refer the matter to the investment strategy group. The investment strategy group will consider any applicable business conflicts between Geneva and the company or other facts and circumstances that may give rise to a conflict of interest on the part of Geneva, because of a business relationship between Geneva and the company, or otherwise. The investment strategy group will determine whether the proxy may be voted by Geneva, whether to seek legal advice, or whether to refer the proxy to the shareholder (or another fiduciary of the shareholder) for voting purposes.

Additionally, Glass-Lewis monitors its conflicts of interest in voting proxies and has provided the firm a written summary report of its due diligence compliance process. Geneva has reviewed such report and will review updates from time to time to determine whether Glass-Lewis conflicts of interest may materially and adversely affect Geneva’s clients and, if so, whether any action should be taken as a result.

Perkins Investment Management LLC
Proxy Voting Summary For Janus Henderson Global Value Fund and Janus
Henderson International Value Fund

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 managers’ voting rationale appears reasonable. If the Janus Proxy Voting Committee does not agree that the portfolio managers’ 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.

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.

Equity and Executive Compensation Issues

Perkins reviews equity 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 and identify plan features and grant practices that demonstrate good stewardship of investors’ interests regarding executive compensation. Perkins will generally vote against plans if the estimated cost is above the allowable cap (an industry-specific, market cap-based amount calculated by the Proxy Voting Service) and/or plan features and grant practices are determined to be misaligned with maximizing shareholder value. 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 Perkins).

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 or are structured in such a way that they give shareholders the ultimate decision on any proposal or offer, and are proposed in a transparent and independent fashion. 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’ first priority is to act as a fiduciary in the best financial interests of its clients. Perkins recognizes that environmental, social, moral, or ethical issues present risks and opportunities that can have an impact on company financial performance. Perkins strives to balance these issues in a manner consistent with its fiduciary obligations. Perkins will generally vote with management on these matters unless it identifies areas of weakness or deficiency relative to peers and/or industry best practices or it feels that management has failed to adequately respond to shareholder concerns. In such instances Perkins will review these matters on a case-by-case basis, consistent with its fiduciary obligations to clients. 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.

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. 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.

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.

Shareholder 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.

For the fiscal years ended September 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. Amounts for certain Funds and/or share classes may include the reimbursement of administrative services fees by Janus Capital to the Funds.

(1)	The Fund changed its fiscal year from July 31 to September 30. Amounts shown reflect fees paid by the Fund for the period June 5, 2017 through September 30, 2017. Information regarding the fees paid by the Fund’s predecessor fund for prior fiscal years is shown in the table below.

State Street served as administrator to the predecessor funds of Janus Henderson Emerging Markets Fund, Janus Henderson European Focus Fund, Janus Henderson Global Equity Income Fund, Janus Henderson International Opportunities Fund, Janus Henderson International Small Cap Fund, and Janus Henderson U.S. Growth Opportunities Fund. As compensation for

the administrative services provided by State Street, each predecessor fund paid State Street an annual administration fee based upon a percentage of the average net assets of such predecessor fund. Because the terms of the predecessor funds’ administration agreement with State Street differ from the terms of the Funds’ administrative services agreement with Janus Services, the administrative services fees paid by the predecessor funds may not be indicative of the administrative services fees paid by the Funds. For the fiscal years ended July 31, unless otherwise noted, the total amounts paid by the predecessor funds’ Class A Shares, Class C Shares, Class I Shares, Class IF Shares, and Class R6 Shares, as applicable, to State Street for administrative services are summarized below.

Janus Distributors LLC dba Janus Henderson Distributors (“Janus Henderson Distributors”), 151 Detroit Street, Denver, Colorado 80206-4805, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Janus Capital, is the principal underwriter for the Funds. Janus Henderson 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 Henderson 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 Henderson Distributors is qualified as a broker-dealer. Under the Distribution Agreement, Janus Henderson 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 Henderson 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 Janus Henderson Global Value Fund, Janus Henderson International Value Fund, and Janus Henderson U.S. Growth Opportunities Fund. With respect to Janus Henderson Global Value Fund and Janus Henderson International Value Fund, Janus Capital places all portfolio transactions solely upon Perkins’ direction. With respect to Janus Henderson U.S. Growth Opportunities Fund, Janus Capital places all portfolio transactions solely upon Geneva’s 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 a Fund and another Janus Henderson-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 Henderson 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.

Geneva Capital Management

In purchasing and selling portfolio securities for Janus Henderson U.S. Growth Opportunities Fund, Geneva seeks to obtain best execution (obtaining the most favorable price and efficient execution at the time of execution). Geneva may engage broker-dealers on behalf of Janus Henderson U.S. Growth Opportunities Fund who provide research services to Geneva at a commission rate that is higher than another broker may have charged. However, Geneva will only do so if it is determined that the amount of the commission is reasonable in relation to the value of the brokerage and research services provided by such broker-dealer.

Research services furnished to Geneva or its affiliates by brokers that effect securities transactions for Janus Henderson U.S. Growth Opportunities Fund may be used by Geneva or its affiliates in servicing other accounts which Geneva or its affiliates manage. Similarly, research services furnished to Geneva or its affiliates by brokers that effect securities transactions for other accounts which Geneva or its affiliates manage may be used by Geneva in servicing Janus Henderson U.S. Growth Opportunities Fund.

For the fiscal year ended September 30, 2017, the total brokerage commissions paid by the Funds to brokers and dealers in transactions identified for execution primarily on the basis of research and other services provided to the Funds are summarized below.

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 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 Janus Henderson Global Value Fund, and Janus Henderson International Value 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.

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.

Shares of the trust

Although Janus Henderson Enterprise Fund, Janus Henderson Triton Fund, and Janus Henderson Venture 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.

Net Asset Value Determination

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 approved professional pricing services or, as needed, by obtaining market quotations from independent broker-dealers. Most debt securities 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. Certain short-term securities maturing within 60 days or less may be evaluated and valued on an amortized cost basis provided that the amortized cost determined approximates market value.

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 an independent third party 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

Janus Henderson Enterprise Fund

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 unless you meet one of the specified criteria. 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 JHG and any of its subsidiaries covered under the JHG 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 Henderson funds, and as such, employees of Janus Capital and its affiliates may open new accounts in the closed Fund; Trustees of the Janus Henderson funds and directors of JHG may also open new accounts in the closed Fund; (vi) Janus Capital “fund of funds,” which is a fund that primarily invests in other Janus Henderson mutual funds, may invest in the Fund; (vii) certain non-Janus Capital “fund of funds” that have an agreement with Janus Capital; (viii) sponsors of certain wrap programs, including RIAs for fee-based business, may continue to invest in the Fund on behalf of existing shareholders and new investors; and (ix) in the case of certain mergers or reorganizations, retirement plans may be able to add the closed Fund as an investment option. Such mergers, reorganizations, acquisitions, or other business combinations 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. In addition, new accounts may be permitted in the Fund for certain plans and programs offered in connection with employer-sponsored retirement plans where the retirement plan offered the Fund prior to its closure, or where the 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, provided such retirement account is funded by April 30, 2017. 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.

Janus Henderson Triton Fund

of certain mergers or reorganizations, retirement plans may be able to add the closed Fund as an investment, 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 combinations 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 the case of fund mergers, existing shareholders of predecessor funds may be treated as existing shareholders of a surviving closed Fund in applying closed fund policies. In addition, new accounts may be permitted in the Fund where Janus Capital committed in writing prior to the Fund’s closing to make the Fund available for certain institutional investors. 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.

Janus Henderson Venture Fund

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) employer-sponsored retirement plans that are offered through existing retirement platforms, as well as employees of JHG and any of its subsidiaries covered under the JHG retirement plan; (v) Janus Capital encourages its employees to own shares of the Janus Henderson funds, and as such, employees of Janus Capital and its affiliates may open new accounts in the closed Fund; Trustees of the Janus Henderson funds and directors of JHG may also open new accounts in the closed Fund; (vi) Janus Capital “fund of funds,” which is a fund that primarily invests in other Janus Henderson mutual funds, may invest in the Fund; (vii) certain non-Janus Capital “fund of funds” that have an agreement with Janus Capital; (viii) sponsors of wrap or model allocation programs, including RIAs, with existing accounts in the Fund would be able to continue to invest in the Fund on behalf of existing shareholders; and (ix) in the case of certain mergers or reorganizations, retirement plans may be able to add the closed Fund as an investment, 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 combinations 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 the case of fund mergers, existing shareholders of predecessor funds may be treated as existing shareholders of a surviving closed Fund in applying closed fund policies. In addition, new accounts may be permitted in the Fund where Janus Capital committed in writing prior to the Fund’s closing to make the Fund available for certain institutional investors. 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.

Purchases

With the exception of Class D Shares, Class I Shares, and Class N 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 Capital 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, 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.

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 Henderson Distributors, the Trust’s distributor, as shown in the table, except where Janus Henderson 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 Henderson Distributors may pay, from its own resources, a commission to your financial intermediary on such investments.

$10,000,000 and above**	0.00%	0.00%	0.25%

*	Offering Price includes the initial sales charge.

**	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.

As described in the Prospectus, there are several ways you can combine multiple purchases of Class A Shares of the Funds and other Janus Henderson 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 Henderson 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.

Commission on Class C Shares

Janus Henderson 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 Henderson 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 Henderson 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.

For the fiscal year ended September 30, 2017, under each Class’ respective Plan, Class A Shares, Class C Shares, Class R Shares, and Class S Shares of the Funds in total paid $47,685,649 to Janus Henderson Distributors (substantially all of which Janus Henderson 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

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 and Class N 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 Capital 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 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, which could lead 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. In-kind payment means payment will be made in portfolio securities rather than cash, and may potentially include illiquid securities. Illiquid securities may not be able to be sold quickly or at a price that reflects full value, or there may not be a market for such securities, which could cause the redeeming shareholder to realize losses on the security if the security is sold at a price lower than that at which it had been valued. If a Fund makes an in-kind payment, the redeeming shareholder may incur brokerage costs in converting the assets to cash, whereas such costs are borne by 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. Redemptions in-kind are taxable for federal income tax purposes in the same manner as redemptions for cash and the subsequent sale of securities received in-kind may result in taxable gains for federal income tax purposes.

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 September 30, the total amounts received by Janus Henderson 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.

Securities lending

Certain Funds may seek to earn additional income through lending their securities to certain qualified broker-dealers and institutions. 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.

During the fiscal year, the securities lending services provided by Deutsche Bank included negotiating the terms of loans; monitoring approved borrowers; recalling and arranging the return of loaned securities to the Funds upon termination of the loan; marking to market loans; providing recordkeeping services; and reporting on the Funds’ securities lending activities. The following table summarizes the income and fees from securities lending activities for the fiscal year for those Funds that participated in securities lending.

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. With the exception of Janus Henderson Global Equity Income Fund, Janus Henderson Global Real Estate Fund, Janus Henderson Balanced Fund, and Janus Henderson Growth and Income Fund, each Fund declares and makes annual distributions of net investment income (if any). Janus Henderson Global Equity Income Fund, Janus Henderson Global Real Estate Fund, Janus Henderson Balanced Fund, and Janus Henderson Growth and Income Fund declare and make quarterly distributions of net investment income.

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 the applicable corporate tax rate. 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.

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. In certain circumstances, a Fund may be required to accrue income on an investment 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.

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 discount (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, in order to qualify as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code and to avoid the 4% federal excise tax, 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. 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

100

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.

A Fund’s 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 under the Internal Revenue Code. In order to avoid taxes and interest that must be paid by the Funds, the Funds may make various 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. If a Fund makes such an election, foreign taxes paid by the Fund will be reported to shareholders as income and shareholders may claim either a foreign tax credit or deduction for such taxes, subject to certain limitations. 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’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 an IRS notice, a portion of a Fund’s income from a REIT that is attributable to the REIT’s residual interest in a REMIC (referred to in the Internal Revenue Code as an “excess inclusion”) may be subject to federal income tax in all events. Excess inclusion income will normally be allocated to shareholders in proportion to the dividends received by such shareholders with the same consequences as if the shareholders held the related REMIC residual interest directly. 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 applicable corporate tax rate. This may impact a Fund’s performance.

For taxable years beginning after December 31, 2017 and before January 1, 2026, ordinary REIT dividends are treated as “qualified business income” that is eligible for a 20% federal income tax deduction in the case of individuals, trusts and estates. The Code currently does not contain a provision permitting a regulated investment company to pass the special character of this income through to its shareholders. As a result, direct investors in REITs may be entitled to this deduction while investors that invest in a Fund that invests in REITs will not.

Please note that shareholders of Janus Henderson Global Real Estate Fund may receive account tax information from the Fund at the end of February of the following year.

101

As discussed above, certain Funds’ investments in REITs may require a Fund to pass through certain “excess inclusion income” as “unrelated business taxable income” (“UBTI”). Tax-exempt investors sensitive to UBTI are strongly encouraged to consult their tax advisers prior to investment in a Fund regarding recent IRS pronouncements about the treatment of such income for certain tax-exempt investors.

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 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. 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.

A Fund may treat a portion of the amount paid to redeem shares as a distribution of investment company taxable income and realized capital gains that are reflected in the net asset value. This practice, commonly referred to as “equalization,” has no effect on the redeeming shareholder or a Fund’s total return, but may reduce the amounts that would otherwise be required to be paid as taxable dividends to the remaining shareholders. It is possible that the IRS could challenge the Funds’ equalization methodology or calculations, and any such challenge could result in additional tax, interest, or penalties to be paid by the Funds.

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 a Fund whether received in cash or additional shares of the Fund. 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 Fund 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 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.

102

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. Any loss on the sale or exchange of shares held for six months or less will be treated as a long-term capital loss to the extent of any capital gain distributions paid to the shareholder with respect to such shares. Any loss a shareholder realizes on a sale or exchange of shares of a Fund will be disallowed if the shareholder acquires other shares of the Fund (whether through the automatic reinvestment of dividends or otherwise) or substantially identical stock or securities within a 61-day period beginning 30 days before and ending 30 days after the shareholder’s sale or exchange of the shares. In such case, the shareholder’s tax basis in the shares acquired will be adjusted to reflect the disallowed loss. Capital losses may be subject to limitations on their use by a shareholder.

If a shareholder incurs a sales charge in acquiring shares of a Fund, disposes of those shares within 90 days and then acquires by January 31 of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the disposition occurred shares in a mutual fund for which the otherwise applicable sales charge is reduced by reason of a reinvestment right (e.g., an exchange privilege), the original sales charge will not be taken into account in computing gain or loss on the original shares to the extent the subsequent sales charge is reduced. Instead, the disregarded portion of the original sales charge will be added to the tax basis of the newly acquired shares. Furthermore, the same rule also applies to a disposition of the newly acquired shares made within 90 days of the second acquisition. This provision prevents a shareholder from immediately deducting the sales charge by shifting his, her or its investment within a family of mutual funds.

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 24% 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.

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 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.

Trustees and officers

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 75. 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 63 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. Except as otherwise disclosed, 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 as part of the Board’s annual self-evaluation process, 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 Henderson 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 Henderson 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 Henderson 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 Henderson fund’s investment objective(s), policies, and available investment techniques, as well as for overseeing the Janus Henderson funds’ 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, 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 Henderson 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 Henderson 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 Henderson funds overseen and the various investment objectives of those funds; (2) the manner in which the Janus Henderson 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 Henderson 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 Henderson 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

111

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:

The Committee’s review of the audit process includes, among other things, the appointment, compensation, and oversight of the Trust’s independent auditor, which performs the audits of the Trust’s financial statements, regular meetings and communication with relevant personnel at Janus Capital and the independent auditor, and preapproval of all audit and nonaudit services. The Committee also reviews any significant changes or improvements in accounting and audit processes that have been implemented.

The Committee reviews various matters related to the operations of the Janus Henderson money market funds, including the review of reports related to such operations, compliance with the Trust’s Money Market Fund Procedures, and Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act.

Board Oversight of Risk Management

Janus Capital, as part of its responsibilities for the day-to-day operations of the Janus Henderson funds, is responsible for day-to-day risk management for the funds. The Board, as part of its overall oversight responsibilities for the Janus Henderson 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 Henderson 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, including, for example, those responsible for oversight of cyber risks; (2) senior managers responsible for

113

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 Henderson 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 Henderson fund transactions. The Board also may be apprised of particular risk management matters in connection with its general oversight and approval of various Janus Henderson fund matters brought before the Board. The Board has appointed a Chief Compliance Officer for the Janus Henderson 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 Henderson’s Head of Compliance, North America, discusses relevant risk issues that may impact the Janus Henderson 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 Henderson 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 she identifies issues associated with the Janus Henderson 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 Henderson 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. For each Trustee, these investments are expected, in the aggregate and at a minimum, to equal median Trustee annual compensation with an allowance for new Trustees to reach this level of investment over time. 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.

As of December 31, 2017, the Trustees owned securities of the Funds described in this SAI in the dollar range shown in the following table. The last column of the table reflects each Trustee’s aggregate dollar range of securities of all mutual funds advised by Janus Capital and overseen by the Trustees (collectively, the “Janus Henderson Funds”).

(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 Henderson 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.

To the best knowledge of the Trust, the following table shows the aggregate compensation paid to each Independent Trustee by the Funds described in this SAI and all Janus Henderson Funds for the periods indicated. None of the Trustees receives any pension or retirement benefits from the Funds or the Janus Henderson 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, the portfolio managers and investment personnel (for purposes of this section, are together referred to as “portfolio managers”) may manage other accounts with investment strategies similar to the Funds. Those other accounts may include other Janus Henderson 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. Janus Capital or an affiliate may also provide seed capital to one or more of these accounts. In addition, the portfolio managers may personally invest in or provide seed capital to some but not all of these accounts, and certain of these accounts may have a greater impact on their compensation than others. Under certain circumstances, a portfolio manager (or portfolio manager’s family members) may own the same securities as those held in a Fund’s portfolio. 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, a portfolio manager may execute transactions for another account that may adversely impact the value of securities held by a 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.

Janus Capital (and its affiliates) generate trades throughout the day, depending on the volume of orders received from investment personnel, for all of its clients using trade system software. Trades are pre-allocated to individual clients and submitted to selected brokers via electronic files, in alignment with Janus Capital’s (and its affiliates’) best execution policy. If an order is not completely filled, executed shares are allocated to client accounts in proportion to the order. In addition, Janus Capital has adopted trade allocation procedures that govern allocation of securities among various Janus Henderson accounts. Trade allocation and personal trading are described in further detail under “Additional Information About Janus Capital and the Subadviser.” Furthermore, Janus Capital believes that conflicts arising from personal ownership by a portfolio manager (or portfolio manager’s family members) of the same securities held in a Fund may be mitigated by the portfolio manager’s compliance with Janus Capital’s personal trading policy within the Personal Code of Ethics.

Janus Capital is the adviser to the Funds and the Janus Capital “funds of funds,” which are funds that invest primarily in other Janus Capital mutual funds. Because Janus Capital is the adviser to the Janus Capital “funds of funds” and the Funds, it

118

is subject to certain potential conflicts of interest when allocating the assets of a Janus Capital “fund of funds” among such Funds. For example, the Janus Capital “funds of funds” investments have been and may continue to be a significant portion of the investments in other Janus Henderson 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 Henderson funds. In addition, the Janus Capital “funds of funds” portfolio managers, Enrique Chang, who also serves as Global Chief Investment Officer of Janus Henderson Investors, and oversees equity and fundamental fixed-income trading, and Ashwin Alankar, who also serves as Senior Vice President and Global Head of Asset Allocation and Risk Management of Janus Capital, each have regular and continuous access to information regarding the holdings and trade details of the Funds, as well as knowledge of, and potential impact on, investment strategies and techniques of the Funds.

Compensation Information (All Funds except Janus Henderson Emerging Markets Fund, Janus Henderson European Focus Fund, Janus Henderson Global Equity Income Fund, Janus Henderson Global Value Fund, Janus Henderson International Opportunities Fund, Janus Henderson International Small Cap Fund, Janus Henderson International Value Fund, and U.S. Growth Opportunities Fund)

The following describes the structure and method of calculating a portfolio manager’s compensation as of September 30, 2017.

The portfolio managers, co-portfolio managers (if applicable), and the Director of Research (“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 through two components: fixed compensation and variable compensation. Compensation (both fixed and variable) is determined on a pre-tax basis.

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 performance, scope of responsibility, skills, knowledge, experience, ability, and market competitiveness.

Variable Compensation: Variable compensation is paid in the form of cash and long-term incentive awards. The long-term incentive awards are subject to a vesting schedule and consist of a mixture of JHG restricted stock and a cash-deferred award that is credited with income, gains, and losses based on the performance of Janus Henderson 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 pre-incentive operating income. 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.

Certain 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 JHG’s Executive Income Deferral Program.

Compensation Information (Janus Henderson Emerging Markets Fund, Janus Henderson European Focus Fund, Janus Henderson Global Equity Income Fund, Janus Henderson International Opportunities Fund, and Janus Henderson International Small Cap Fund)

Following is a summary of the compensation arrangements for the portfolio managers for all accounts managed, and not just for the applicable Funds, for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2017. These arrangements include both short and long-term financial incentives. In general, the remuneration arrangements are based on:

•	Pre-defined, objective, measurable investment performance
•	Performance goals that are ambitious, but attainable
•	Balancing incentivization for appropriately active portfolio management to achieve maximum feasible results within the portfolio’s risk return parameters.

The primary elements of the compensation structure are summarized below.

119

Base salaries : Set to be competitive with the market (at or around market median, but with outliers for newly promoted individuals or individuals still gaining knowledge experience for their role, or for individuals for considerable experience or niche/specialist skills). Base salaries are reviewed annually to ensure they remain market competitive

Incentive arrangements : There is a discretionary incentive funding framework which applies to determine overall incentive pool funding for direct, front line investment professionals. The framework takes the form of an indicative, but non-contractual, funding construct which is based on relevant metrics linked to profitability, fund performance and quality asset growth. This framework is used to guide overall pool allocations for the investment management teams in aggregate, although allocation at the team and individual level ultimately remains discretionary.

Overall pool funding is subject to risk adjustment by a remuneration committee based on internal recommendations related to the nature and incidence of risk events, among other things.

Team and individual allocations are determined on a discretionary basis, taking into account individual performance (both financial and non-financial), contribution to wider team/divisional activities, adherence to compliance and risk requirements and behaviour/conduct in line with firmwide guiding principles.

All variable incentive awards are subject to mandatory deferral of up to 60%, with deferred awards being delivered over a three year period in the form of company shares and/or interests in proprietary funds.

Performance fees : The Funds do not have performance fee arrangements. However, for some funds, performance-related fees earned by the firm are shared with the individuals generating that performance in a transparent and agreed way. Individual performance fee allocations are also subject to mandatory deferral mechanisms and, in many cases, individuals are obliged to defer a proportion of their performance fee incentives into the funds in which the performance fees were generated. All discretionary and performance fee incentives are subject to a standard deferral plan, as summarized below.

Deferred Equity Plan (DEP) : Deferred awards are granted under the DEP. Under the DEP, the deferred award is normally awarded in the form of JHG shares which are held in trust and are released in three equal tranches on the 1st, 2 ^nd and 3rd anniversary of grant respectively, subject to continued employment. The plan includes the facility to vary or lapse individual unvested awards in cases of poor risk management, material downturn in performance (company, business unit, fund or individual) or where results have been misstated or where there has been serious misconduct.

Under the DEP, subject to certain conditions, portfolio managers are able to elect to defer bonuses into their funds instead of into JHG shares.

Long Term Incentive Plan (LTIP) : A long term incentive plan, awards under which are granted in the form of either nil cost options or restricted shares, operates for the most senior and top performers whose input and contribution is likely to materially influence overall company performance, and whose participation is intended to closely align their interests and activities with those of our investors and shareholders. Awards are subject to performance conditions related to the achievement of a range of performance measures, at the company level, including Total Shareholder Return (TSR) growth, three year investment performance, and growth on net income. Awards vest partly after three years and partly after four years (two-thirds and one-third of the total award respectively), subject to achievement of the performance conditions measured at the end of the relevant three and four year performance period.

Geneva Investment Personnel

Other Accounts Managed

To the best knowledge of the Trust, the following table provides information relating to other accounts managed by the Geneva investment personnel as of September 30, 2017. For any co-managed Fund or account, the assets reflect total fund or account assets. If applicable, accounts included under Other Registered Investment Companies may include subadvised

120

accounts and non-U.S. registered investment companies. To the extent that any of the accounts pay advisory fees based on account performance, information on those accounts is separately listed.

		Other Registered Investment Companies	Other Pooled Investment Vehicles	Other Accounts
Kristi Guay	Number of Other Accounts Managed	None	2 ⁽¹⁾	25
	Assets in Other Accounts Managed	None	$337.34M	$ 74.24M
Derek Pawlak	Number of Other Accounts Managed	None	2 ⁽¹⁾	33
	Assets in Other Accounts Managed	None	$337.34M	76.29M
W. Scott Priebe	Number of Other Accounts Managed	4	2 ⁽¹⁾	265
	Assets in Other Accounts Managed	$2,276.60M	$337.34M	$2,761.87M

(1)	One of the accounts included in the total, consisting of $23.0M of the total assets of the category, has a performance-based advisory fee.

Material Conflicts

Geneva’s portfolio managers manage multiple accounts for a diverse client base, including mutual funds, separate accounts (assets managed on behalf of institutions such as pension funds, public entities and foundations) and wrap fee programs (“Other Accounts”). Certain of these Other Accounts may pay higher advisory fees or include a performance based fee component than Janus Henderson U.S. Growth Opportunities Fund, creating an incentive to favor the higher paying account. Therefore, conflicts of interest may arise in connection with the portfolio managers’ management of the Fund’s investments on the one hand and the investments of such Other Accounts on the other hand. However, Geneva has adopted policies and procedures designed to address such conflicts, including, among others, policies and procedures relating to allocation of investment opportunities, soft dollars and aggregation of trades.

Although Geneva’s investment decisions on behalf of Janus Henderson U.S. Growth Opportunities Fund may differ from and/or conflict with advice given to its other clients, some Other Accounts may make investments in the same type of instruments or securities as the Fund at the same time as the Fund. These Other Accounts may have investment strategies similar to the Fund. In addition, Geneva’s personnel may stand to benefit more personally from good investment performance by these Other Accounts than by equivalent performance of the Fund. In those instances, where the Fund and another client of Geneva’s trade in the same type of instrument at the same time, Geneva has established trading models and aggregation and allocation procedures to allocate such trades equitably among its various clients and the Fund. In some cases, these procedures may affect adversely the size or price of the position obtainable for the Fund.

In addition, Geneva’s portfolio managers may invest in Janus Henderson U.S. Growth Opportunities Fund or other mutual funds that Geneva manages. Geneva also may recommend the Fund and other mutual funds that Geneva manages to certain clients. This presents a possible conflict of interest, in that it could create an incentive for Geneva to favor the mutual funds over other clients. Geneva maintains investment and trade allocation policies and procedures designed to manage such conflicts of interest.

Compensation Information (Janus Henderson U.S. Growth Opportunities Fund)

Following is a summary of the compensation arrangements for Geneva’s investment professionals for all accounts managed, and not just for the Fund, for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2017. These arrangements include both short and long-term financial incentives. In general, the remuneration arrangements are based on:

•	Pre-defined, objective, measurable investment performance
•	Performance goals that are ambitious, but attainable

growth. This framework is used to guide overall pool allocations for the investment management teams in aggregate, although allocation at the team and individual level ultimately remains discretionary.

Overall pool funding is subject to risk adjustment by a remuneration committee based on internal recommendations related to the nature and incidence of risk events, among other things.

Deferred Equity Plan (DEP): Deferred awards are granted under the DEP. Under the DEP, the deferred award is normally awarded in the form of Janus Henderson Group shares which are held in trust and are released in three equal tranches on the 1st, 2nd and 3rd anniversary of grant respectively, subject to continued employment. The plan includes the facility to vary or lapse individual unvested awards in cases of poor risk management, material downturn in performance (company, business unit, fund or individual) or where results have been misstated or where there has been serious misconduct.

Under the DEP, subject to certain conditions, portfolio managers are able to elect to defer bonuses into their funds instead of into Henderson shares.

Perkins Investment Personnel

Other Accounts Managed

To the best knowledge of the Trust, the following table provides information relating to other accounts managed by the portfolio managers as of September 30, 2017. For any co-managed Fund or account, the assets reflect total Fund assets. If applicable, accounts included under Other Registered Investment Companies may include subadvised accounts and non-U.S. registered investment companies. No accounts included in the totals listed below have a performance-based advisory fee.

		Other Registered Investment Companies	Other Pooled Investment Vehicles	Other Accounts
Gregory R. Kolb	Number of Other Accounts Managed	2	None	18
	Assets in Other Accounts Managed	$288.59M	None	$2,440.65M
George Maglares	Number of Other Accounts Managed	2	None	18
	Assets in Other Accounts Managed	$288.59M	None	$2,440.65M

Material Conflicts

As shown in the table above, the Perkins 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. Janus Capital or an affiliate may provide seed capital to one or more of these accounts. In addition, the portfolio managers may personally invest in or provide seed capital to some but not all of these accounts, and certain of these accounts may have a greater impact on the portfolio managers’ compensation than others. Under certain circumstances, a portfolio manager (or portfolio manager’s family members) may own the same securities as those held in a Fund’s portfolio. 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, a portfolio manager may execute transactions for another account that may adversely impact the value of securities held by a Fund. However, Perkins believes that these conflicts may be mitigated to a certain extent by the fact that accounts with like investment strategies managed by the portfolio managers 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. Information regarding Perkins’ trade allocation procedures is described under “Additional Information About Janus Capital and the Subadviser.” Furthermore, Janus Capital believes that conflicts arising from personal ownership by a portfolio manager (or

122

portfolio manager’s family members) of the same securities held in a Fund may be mitigated by the portfolio manager’s compliance with Janus Capital’s personal trading policy within the Personal Code of Ethics.

Compensation Information (Janus Henderson Global Value Fund and Janus Henderson International Value Fund)

The following describes the structure and method of calculating a portfolio manager’s compensation as of September 30, 2017.

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. Compensation (both fixed and variable) is determined on a pre-tax basis.

Fixed Compensation: Fixed compensation is paid in cash and is comprised primarily 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. The long-term incentive awards are subject to a vesting schedule and are generally granted in the form of 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. The portfolio managers, as part owners of Perkins, also receive compensation by virtue of their ownership interest in Perkins. The overall Perkins’ variable compensation pool is determined by JHG management.

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.

Ownership of Securities

As of September 30, 2017, the portfolio managers and/or investment personnel of the Funds described in this SAI beneficially owned securities of the Fund(s) they manage in the dollar range shown in the following table. The last column of the table also reflects each individual’s aggregate beneficial ownership of all mutual funds advised by Janus Capital within the Janus Henderson family of funds (collectively, the “Janus Henderson Funds”).

Principal shareholders

As of December 31, 2017, the officers and Trustees as a group owned less than 1% of the outstanding Shares of each class of the Funds except 3.9% of Janus Henderson European Focus Fund Class D Shares; 2.7% of Janus Henderson Global Equity Income Fund Class D Shares; 12% of Janus Henderson Global Research Fund Class N Shares; 1.7% of Janus Henderson Global Select Fund Class I Shares; 7.1% of Janus Henderson Global Select Fund Class N Shares; 16.8% of Janus Henderson Global Technology Fund Class N Shares; 1.2% of Janus Henderson Overseas Fund Class N Shares; 5.9% of Janus Henderson Contrarian Fund Class N Shares; 11.8% of Janus Henderson Growth and Income Fund Class A Shares; 37.7% of Janus Henderson Growth and Income Fund Class N Shares; and 1.1% of Janus Henderson Venture Fund Class N Shares.

To the best knowledge of the Trust, as of December 31, 2017, no other person or entity owned beneficially 5% or more (or beneficially owned more than 25%) of the outstanding Shares of any class of the Funds, except as shown. As of December 31, 2017, W. Scott Priebe, co-portfolio manager of Janus Henderson U.S. Growth Opportunities Fund, is deemed to control the Fund by virtue of owning more than 25% of the outstanding Shares of the Fund. To the extent that Janus Capital, an affiliate, or an individual, such as a Fund’s portfolio manager(s), owns a significant portion of the Shares of any class of a Fund or the Fund as a whole, the redemption of those Shares may have an adverse effect on such Fund, a share class, and/or its shareholders. Janus Capital may consider the effect of redemptions on such Fund and the Fund’s other shareholders in deciding whether to redeem its Shares. In certain circumstances, Janus Capital’s or JHG’s ownership may not represent beneficial ownership. To the best knowledge of the Trust, entities other than Janus Capital 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 June 5, 2017, the funds of the Henderson Global Funds trust reorganized into the Trust. As a result, certain funds noted above assumed the assets and liabilities of the corresponding funds of Henderson Global Funds. Each Fund described in this SAI has a fiscal year end of September 30.
(2)	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. Each Fund described in this SAI has a fiscal year end of September 30.
(3)	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.”

Funds listed in the preceding table that are not marked with footnote (2) or (3) commenced operations after July 6, 2009.

Effective January 28, 2011, Janus Research Core Fund was reorganized into Janus Henderson Growth and Income Fund. Effective March 15, 2013, Janus Global Research Fund was reorganized into Janus Worldwide Fund, which was subsequently renamed Janus Henderson Global Research Fund. Effective April 5, 2013, Janus World Allocation Fund was reorganized into Janus Henderson Global Allocation Fund – Moderate. Effective April 24, 2015, INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund II (formerly named INTECH U.S. Growth Fund) was reorganized into Janus Henderson U.S. Managed Volatility Fund (formerly named INTECH U.S. Value Fund). Effective April 28, 2017, Janus Fund was reorganized into Janus Henderson Research Fund. Effective April 28, 2017, Janus Twenty Fund was reorganized into Janus Henderson Forty Fund. Effective June 5, 2017, Janus Global Technology Fund assumed the assets and liabilities of Henderson Global Technology Fund and was subsequently renamed Janus Henderson Global Technology Fund. Effective June 12, 2017, Janus Emerging Markets Fund was reorganized into Janus Henderson Emerging Markets Fund (formerly named Henderson Emerging Markets Fund). Effective June 26, 2017, Janus Henderson U.S. Core Fund (formerly named INTECH U.S. Core Fund) was reorganized into Janus Henderson U.S. Managed Volatility Fund (formerly named INTECH U.S. Managed Volatility Fund).

Janus Capital reserves the right to the name “Janus Henderson.” 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 Henderson” 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.

171

Shares of the Trust

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.

Shareholder Meetings

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 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.

Voting Rights

Each of the Trustees of the Trust, except Diane L. Wallace, was elected at a Special Meeting of Shareholders on June 14, 2016. Ms. Wallace was elected at a Special Meeting of Shareholders on April 25, 2017. 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.

Master/Feeder Option

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.

Appendix A

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, Geneva, 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.

174

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.

175

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.

Moody’s appends numerical modifiers 1, 2, and 3 to each generic rating classification from Aa through Caa. The modifier 1 indicates that the obligation ranks in the higher end of its generic rating category; the modifier 2 indicates a mid-range ranking; and the modifier 3 indicates a ranking in the lower end of that generic rating category.

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.

ITEM 29. Persons Controlled by or Under Common Control with Registrant

The Board of Trustees of Janus Investment Fund is the same as that of Janus Aspen Series. Nonetheless, Janus Investment Fund takes the position that it is not under common control with Janus Aspen Series because the power residing in the respective boards arises as the result of an official position with each respective Trust.

In addition to serving as the investment adviser of Janus Investment Fund, Janus Capital Management LLC serves as the investment adviser of Clayton Street Trust, Janus Aspen Series, and Janus Detroit Street Trust, three registered open-end investment management companies. Additionally, the officers of Clayton Street Trust, Janus Aspen Series, Janus Investment Fund, and Janus Detroit Street Trust are substantially identical. Nonetheless, Janus Investment Fund takes the position that it is not under common control with such other Trusts because the power residing in the respective officers arises as a result of an official position with each respective Trust.

ITEM 30. 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.

ITEM 31. Business and Other Connections of Investment Adviser

As a result, both Janus Henderson and you have a fiduciary obligation to place the interests of our Clients before our own. In order to avoid conflicts of interest, we have a duty to conduct personal activities and personal securities transactions in such a manner that we avoid even the appearance of a conflict of interest.

Personal Account Dealing Policy

1	Overview

1.1

Policy Statement

As a global investment adviser, Janus Henderson is entrusted with the assets of our clients for investment purposes. As a result, Janus Henderson employees have a fiduciary obligation to place the interests of our clients before our own. However, because of the potential conflicts of interest inherent in our business, our industry and Janus Henderson have implemented certain standards and limitations designed to minimise these conflicts and help ensure that we focus on meeting our duties as a fiduciary for our clients. The Personal Account Dealing Policy (the “Policy”) is in place to help manage and mitigate the conflicts of interest that can arise from personal account dealing activities and safeguard our clients’ interests. Please be aware that your ability to liquidate positions may be severely restricted under the Policy, including times of market volatility. Therefore, as a general matter, Janus Henderson discourages personal investments by employees in individual securities and encourages personal investments in managed collective vehicles, such as mutual and exchange traded funds.

1.2

Key principles

You have an obligation to conduct your personal investment activities and related securities transactions lawfully and in a manner that avoids actual or potential conflicts between your own interests and the interests of Janus Henderson and its clients. You must carefully consider the nature of your Janus Henderson responsibilities—and the type of information that you might be deemed to possess in light of any particular securities transaction—before engaging in any investment-related activity or transaction. In addition:

You must take responsibility for ensuring you are aware of the requirements of this Policy.

At all times the interests of clients, in this case Janus Henderson funds and client accounts, take priority over your personal investment interests.

You may not personally benefit by causing a Client to act, or fail to act, in making investment decisions.

You may not engage in fraudulent or manipulative conduct in connection with the trading of securities in a Client account.

You may not profit, or cause others to profit, based on your knowledge of completed or contemplated Client transactions.

You must preclear all of your personal trades and subsequently execute your trades in accordance with stated timeframes.

No dealing is permitted that is in conflict with the interests of our clients, the parameters set by the Policy, the restrictions imposed by Janus Henderson restricted/embargo lists and the close periods applicable to Janus Henderson Group plc shares.

You are discouraged from dealing on the basis of unpublished tips or rumours.

Dealing on the basis of material non-public information is illegal.

10.

You should ensure that personal transactions are in keeping with your financial circumstances.

11.

You must adhere to the Policy to mitigate the risk of conflicts of interest and to Treat Customers Fairly (TCF).

12.

You must not mislead the Client by presenting untrue statements of material fact to the Client or by failing to provide a material fact necessary to the Client.

Access to duplicate confirmations and account statements will be restricted to those persons, who are assigned to perform review functions, and all such materials will be kept confidential except as otherwise required by law.

3.2

Preclearance Requirements for Dealing in Covered Securities

The requirements in the Policy are designed to mitigate or eliminate any potential conflict, or appearance of conflict, that may occur between your personal account dealing and Client security dealing. The following requirements apply to your personal dealing in Covered Securities in accounts you beneficially own.

3.2.1

Requesting Preclearance

You and your related parties (your spouse, minor children and other adult family members living in your household) must preclear any trades in Covered Securities via MCO, unless the transaction meets one of the provisions noted in the Excluded Transactions section. Preclearance requests are evaluated for potential conflicts of interest that may deem the trade to not be, or appear to not be, in the best interest of Clients. Generally, most requests are approved or denied immediately but some may take up to 48 hours to evaluate.

Compliance retains the right to refuse you permission to conduct a personal trade without providing a reason for the refusal. No reason for refusal will be given if in the opinion of Compliance the explanation would result in the release of confidential information.

3.2.2

Approval Window

Approvals and denials are communicated from MCO via email. If approved, and you choose to transact, you must place and execute your transaction by the close of business on the day after you receive an approval email from MCO .

Personal Account Dealing Policy

If the day after the date of preclearance approval is a bank holiday or a weekend then you must place and execute the transaction by the close of business on the day you receive approval.

If the transaction is not instructed and executed within the approved timeframe then you must submit a new request to trade in MCO.

3.2.3

Delayed Execution

If your trade has a delayed execution date, e.g. an illiquid or unlisted security, you should request an exception from Compliance.

3.2.4

Preclearance Attestation (Portfolio Managers only)

If you are requesting to personally trade a Covered Security that is an eligible investment for Client Accounts you manage, you must provide your rationale for the trade via an attestation form in MCO.

3.3

Restrictions on Dealing in Covered Securities

3.3.1

Blackout Periods

Generally, you will not be granted preclearance to deal in a Covered Security when there is a pending buy or sell order for a Client in that same security. Additionally:

•

Access Persons will generally not be granted preclearance to trade in a Covered Security within one (1) business day after a Client trade occurs in the same security.

•

Investment Persons will generally not be granted preclearance to trade in a Covered Security within seven (7) calendar days after a Client trade occurs in the same security.

3.3.2

Minimum Holding Periods

Minimum holding periods are applicable for any purchase and subsequent sale, or any sale then subsequent purchase (for short sales), of the same Covered Security (or its equivalent). In respect of derivatives any transaction to close out a derivative position cannot be executed until the end of the holding period. The holding period starts the day after execution of your trade. Calculations are made using the “first-in, first-out” (FIFO) method.

Minimum holding periods for Covered Securities are as follows:


Profile	ETFs/ETNs (Including Janus Henderson ETFs/ETNs)	All other Covered Securities
Access Person	One week (7 calendar days)	Three months (90 calendar days)
Investment Person	One week (7 calendar days)	Six months (180 calendar days)

Where this restriction would cause undue financial hardship due to your personal circumstances or in periods of extreme market turmoil, you may request an exception to this restriction. This should be seen as an exceptional measure and requires the approval of the global CCO and ratified by the Ethics Committee

Holding periods are designed to discourage derivatives trading and securities trading with a high frequency.

3.3.3

Best Price Rule (Investment Persons only)

In order to eliminate even the appearance of impropriety, if you (1) buy or sell a security within seven days before a Client trade is executed in the same security, and (2) receive a price advantage over the Client’s trade, at the Ethics Committee’s discretion you may be required to surrender the price advantage.

Personal Account Dealing Policy

3.3.4

Private Placements and Initial Public Offerings (IPOs)

You must request pre-approval prior to investing in a private placement or limited offering. No employee, or other Access person, shall acquire any security issued in any limited or private offering (please note that hedge funds are sold as limited or private offerings) unless the CCO (or designee) and the employee’s Business Unit Head give express prior written approval and document the basis for granting approval after due inquiry. The CCO, in determining whether approval should be given, will take into account, among other factors, whether the investment opportunity should be reserved for a Client and whether the opportunity is being offered to the individual by virtue of his or her position with JHG.Contact Compliance for assistance with these requests.

You are generally not allowed to participate in IPOs. If you are a FINRA affiliated person, you are prohibited from participating in an IPO. Requests to participate in an IPO will be considered only under limited circumstances and only with prior approval from the CCO, in consultation with the Ethics Committee. Please contact Compliance for advice and direction.

3.3.5

Restricted stocks

You may not trade securities of any issuer that are on the JHG Embargoed/Restricted List. Certain securities may have restrictions placed upon them which restrict both personal and Client dealing, typically when Janus Henderson or a part of Janus Henderson is in receipt of material, non-public information. These restrictions will be maintained collectively using the Embargoed/Restricted Lists.

Personal Account Dealing Policy

Personal Account Dealing Policy

A list of these Investment Trusts can be found under the link www.hendersontrusts.com and ‘Closed Period’ restrictions will be applied on MCO for all persons.

Fund managers of Investment Trusts managed by Janus Henderson should be aware of the specific regulatory risks associated with personal investing in their trusts and should consult Compliance if they consider that there might be any potential conflict or market conduct risk associated with a proposed PA trade.

The Janus Henderson Group Share Trading Policy provides additional guidance on the trading of JHG securities.

Personal Account Dealing Policy

Appendix II

Beneficial Ownership Guidelines

Definition of Beneficial Ownership

The Policy applies to all accounts and securities beneficially owned by you as well as accounts under your direct or indirect influence or control. Essentially this means that if you have the ability to profit, directly or indirectly, or share in any profit from a transaction, you have Beneficial Ownership. If you are unsure if an account or investment falls under your beneficial ownership, contact Compliance for further guidance.

Practical Application

You live with your parents: If you live in your parents’ house, but do not financially support your parents, your parents’ accounts and securities are not beneficially owned by you and do not require disclosure.

Your parent lives with you: If you provide financial support to your parent, your parent’s accounts and securities are beneficially owned by you and require disclosure.

You have an adult child living in your home: If you provide financial support to your child, your child’s accounts and securities are beneficially owned by you and require disclosure.

You have a college age child: If your child is in college and you still claim the child as a dependent for tax purposes, you are the beneficial owner of their accounts and securities.

Your child has an UGMA/UTMA account: If you (or your spouse) are the custodian for the minor child, the child’s accounts are beneficially owned by you. If someone other than you (or your spouse) is the custodian for your minor child’s account, the account is not beneficially owned by you.

You have a domestic partner or similar co - habitation arrangement: If you contribute to the maintenance of a household and the financial support of a partner, your partner’s accounts and securities are beneficially owned by you and require disclosure.

You have a roommate: Generally, roommates are presumed to be temporary and therefore you have no beneficial ownership in one another’s accounts and securities.

You have power of attorney: If you have been granted power of attorney over an account, you are not the beneficial owner of the account until the time that the power of attorney has been activated.

You are the trustee and/or the beneficiary of a trust: Due to the complexity and variety of trust agreements, these situations require case by-case review by Compliance.

Outside Business Activities Policy

1	Overview

1.1

Policy Statement

As an Employee of Janus Henderson, you have a fiduciary obligation to place the interests of the Company, our shareholders and our clients before your own in matters related to your employment. This fiduciary duty of loyalty does not end when you leave the office: your ability to act in the best interest of the Company, its shareholders and its clients may be compromised by your personal activities outside of work if those activities give rise to a perceived, actual or potential conflict of interest (“conflict”) or other risk.

In order to ensure that the Company adequately manages any perceived, actual or potential conflicts or other risks that might harm the Company, its shareholders or its clients, you have an obligation to first disclose any proposed Outside Business Activity (OBA) to Compliance via MyComplianceOffice. Compliance will consult with your management as necessary. Second, you must abide by the Company’s determination as to whether participation in the OBA is permissible and, if so, by any conditions it places on your participation in the OBA.

1.2

Key principles

•

All Employees must take responsibility for ensuring they are aware of the requirements of this Policy;

•

Employees’ activities outside of work may present a conflict or other risk that could harm the Company, its shareholders or its clients;

•

At all times the interests of the Company, its shareholders and its clients take priority over the personal activities of Employees with respect to matters related to their employment;

•

All Employees have an obligation to disclose, and seek pre-approval for, any proposed OBAs;

•

All Employees have an obligation to abide by the Company’s decision as to whether to permit an OBA and, if so, any conditions it places on their participation in the OBA;

•

Any OBA that involves a significant amount of time or provides a significant amount of income may present a conflict;

•

Any OBA that is investment-related, including activities on behalf of a non-profit, may present a conflict;

•

Any OBA that involves service on the board of directors of a publicly traded company may present a conflict and will generally not be permitted; and

•

The OBA policy is separate from, and in addition to, other policies at the Company (e.g., the Political Activities Policy and the Conflicts of Interest Policy) which may impose additional restrictions.

1.3

Scope

This policy applies to all Employees.

1.4

Roles and Responsibilities

You are required to disclose any OBAs to Compliance via MyComplianceOffice.

Compliance is responsible for:

Outside Business Activities Policy

•

providing training and guidance on the policy to all Employees;

•

monitoring disclosures;

•

approving OBAs that do not present a conflict or other risk;

•

escalating OBAs that do present a conflict or other risk to the Ethics Committee and direct managers, as appropriate; and

•

ensuring that any agreed upon controls for approved OBAs are implemented and monitored.

Direct managers are responsible for:

•

Review of the OBA disclosure when escalated from Compliance

•

Recommendations for approval /denial for OBA disclosures.

The Ethics Committee approves or denies any escalated OBA requests and provides oversight.

Outside Business Activities Policy

3.1

Disclosure

You are required to disclose ^1,2 , and seek pre-approval for, any of the following OBAs:

•

Serving as an employee, independent contractor, sole proprietor, officer, director or partner of a for-profit business;

•

Serving as a director, officer or executive management of a non-profit entity or performing investment- related functions on its behalf; and

•

Engaging in any other outside employment or activity (paid or unpaid) which may give rise to a conflict with the Company, its shareholders or clients, or other risk (e.g. operating a blog which provides financial advice).

For clarity, you are not required to disclose service as a non-director, non-officer, non-executive management employee or volunteer for a non-profit entity, including civic organizations (e.g., your local homeowners or resident association), unless you will be performing investment-related functions on its behalf.

3.2

Pre-Approval

Upon joining the Company, you should submit a request for approval in MCO before continuing any existing Outside Business Activity. Additionally, prior to commencing any new Outside Business Activity, you should submit a request for approval in MCO.

Approval process:

Compliance reviews your request. Compliance approves your OBA if it does not present any actual or potential conflict or other risk. Compliance escalates your request to the Ethics Committee and your direct manager, as appropriate, if the activity presents perceived, actual or potential conflict.

If requested by Compliance, your direct manager reviews your request and provides a recommendation.

The Ethics Committee reviews all requests. It may ratify or revoke any approvals granted by Compliance or your manager. It also approves or denies any requests escalated by Compliance.

In deciding whether to approve the activity, Compliance, your direct manager and/or the Ethics Committee will consider whether the OBA presents any conflict or other risk and, if so, whether that conflict or risk can be effectively mitigated. Your request will not be denied without good cause. Compliance, your direct manager and/or the Ethics Committee may impose any conditions on your participation in the OBA reasonably necessary to manage any conflicts or risks, including but not limited to requiring periodic certifications.

As a general rule, you will not be allowed to serve on the board of directors of any publicly-traded company.

3.3

Annual Attestation

¹ FINRA obligation: If you are a FINRA licensed person you must also disclose Outside Business Activities through Distribution Compliance

² Hong Kong SFC obligation: If you are a Hong Kong SFC licensed person, please consult with local compliance on the disclosure obligations in relation to outside directorships and other business interests.

Outside Business Activities Policy

You are required to keep your OBA disclosures current and accurate by promptly notifying Compliance of any relevant changes to your status (e.g., you are now serving on the investment committee) or the entity’s status (e.g., the company has become, or is becoming, publicly-traded). You must attest to the accuracy and completeness of your OBA disclosures in MCO annually.

3.4

Policy Breaches

Failure to adhere to any of the requirements outlined above may result in a breach of this policy. Breaches are taken very seriously by Janus Henderson Management with possible disciplinary procedures being applied including termination of employment.

Gifts & Entertainment Received Policy

1	Overview

1.1

Policy Statement

The receipt of gifts or entertainment may create the appearance of impropriety or a conflict of interest. In this context, an appearance of impropriety or conflict may occur if the gift or entertainment might reasonably be interpreted as being intended to influence the recipient. For that reason, Janus Henderson has adopted this Gifts and Entertainment Received Policy (the “Policy”). The Policy applies to any Gifts or Entertainment, including Business Meals, received by or offered to an Employee of Janus Henderson from a Business Relationship.

You are required to ensure that your activity does not raise any question of impropriety or impair our duty to act honestly, fairly and professionally in the best interest of our Clients. This Policy provides general principles that apply globally; however, it also recognizes and authorizes regional differences based on local regulations and customs. Those differences are addressed in the Appendices to the Policy. You are responsible for knowing and understanding both the general and more specific policies that apply to your jurisdiction and business area. This Policy should be utilized in conjunction with the Janus Henderson Conflicts of Interest Policy and the Janus Henderson Anti-Bribery and Corruption Policy . Please refer to the Janus Henderson Global Inducements Policy for guidelines on providing/giving gifts and entertainment.

1.2

Key principles

In order for Janus Henderson to identify, and eliminate, mitigate and/or disclose any perceived, actual or potential conflicts of interest, you must disclose and receive approval for certain Gifts or Entertainment received, or intended to be accepted, from a Business Relationship.

You must follow the restrictions that may apply to your jurisdiction and business as set forth in the relevant regional Appendix. Employees located or doing business in the U.K. and Europe are generally limited to receiving only certain minor non-monetary benefits, including hospitality of a reasonable de minimis value, such as food and drink during a business meeting, or a conference, seminar or other training event.

Regardless of your business unit and jurisdiction, you may not :

•

Receive cash, cash equivalents, loans or personal services on behalf of Janus Henderson, even if these fall within the limits outlined in the Appendices. This includes gift cards or certificates if they can be redeemed for cash.

•

Receive special discounts unless they are available to all other Employees (e.g., a discount coupon from a retail store).

•

Receive a Gift or Entertainment if it could be perceived by others as a bribe or consideration for a business favour.

•

Receive a Gift or Entertainment that would be embarrassing to you or Janus Henderson if made public.

•

Request a Gift or Entertainment from a Business Relationship.

Gifts & Entertainment Received Policy

1.3

Scope

This policy applies to all Employees.

1.4

Thresholds and Limits

The Appendices outline for each jurisdiction:

•

prohibitions,

•

Disclosure Thresholds,

•

Individual Limits,

•

Annual Limits, and

•

other rules or guidelines.

The described thresholds and limits apply to the total, fair market value of the Gift or Entertainment, including meals, drinks, tickets to sporting events, etc. For the avoidance of doubt, fair market value is the greater of the value at which it could be purchased in the open market and the nominal cost to the Business Relationship. Any Annual Limits per provider apply to the combined total of all Entertainment received from the Business Relationship, including Business Meals. All Individual and Annual Limits related to Business Meals are exclusive of tax and gratuity.

1.5

Roles and Responsibilities

Employees disclose Gifts or Entertainment received, adhere to the limits described in the Appendices and obtain any necessary approvals in accordance with the Policy and relevant Appendix. Compliance trains Employees on the policy. Compliance also reviews and approves any exceptions to the Policy in conjunction with direct managers. The Ethics & Conflicts Committee reviews all exceptions to the Policy.

1.6

References

Rules on Gifts and Entertainment exist in all jurisdictions in which Janus Henderson operates. Main examples include:

•

FINRA Rule 3220 sets value limits and recordkeeping requirements for gifts/gratuities received by member firms and associated persons.

•

The Foreign Corrupt Practices Act prohibits the payment or receipt of bribes, including those disguised as gifts, travel, entertainment or meals.

•

The Code of Business Standards prohibits firms and their employees from receiving any gift, entertainment or other inducement that is likely to cause, or be perceived to cause, a conflict of interest.

•

The UK Bribery Act requires firms to ensure that any gift or entertainment received is not intended to promote corrupt or inappropriate behaviour.

Gifts & Entertainment Received Policy

3	Policy Requirements

3.1

Disclosure

You are required to promptly disclose in MyComplianceOffice any Gifts or Entertainment that you receive or wish to accept to the extent they exceed the relevant Disclosure Threshold described in the Appendices.

3.2

Approval and Exceptions Process

Any Gift or Entertainment whose value exceeds the relevant Individual or Annual Limit, or which is otherwise impermissible due to restrictions described in the Appendices constitutes an exception to the Policy. Compliance and your direct manager will generally review and approve or deny any exceptions to the Policy. The receipt of Gifts and Entertainment in excess of the Individual or Annual Limits by the Co-CEOs is subject to review and approval by the Chairman of the Janus Henderson Board. The receipt of Gifts and Entertainment in excess of the Individual or Annual Limits by other members of the Executive Committee is subject to review and approval by the Co-CEOs. In connection with the approval of an exception, the Company may impose additional conditions or restrictions on the receipt of the Gifts or Entertainment, including but not limited to requiring the Employee reimburse the Business Relationship or donate to an appropriate charitable organization the amount by which the fair market value of the Entertainment exceeds the relevant Individual Limit. The Ethics & Conflicts Committee will review all exceptions granted.

Employees may be invited to speak at industry conferences and events. In some situations, the speech or appearance involves travel, lodging, or other customary speaker amenities (travel accommodations). You must promptly disclose such accommodations in MyComplianceOffice and seek Compliance approval to receive such accommodations.

If, after you have received Gifts or Entertainment, you or Compliance determine the value is over the relevant Individual or Annual Limit or is otherwise inappropriate, your direct manager and Compliance will work with you to resolve issue and ensure that your remains compliant with the Policy and local regulations. In the event an Employee receives a Gift over the applicable limit, the Employee will be required to return the Gift or, at the direction of Compliance and the Ethics & Conflicts Committee, (i) pay the fair market value of the Gift and keep it; (ii) donate the Gift to charity; or (iii) destroy the Gift.

3.3

Attestation

Employees are required to attest annually that they have disclosed all Gifts and Entertainment required to be disclosed and that they have not received any Gifts or Entertainment outside of the Policy. Certain members of the investment team are also required to attest monthly to their disclosures.

3.4

Policy Breaches

Failure to adhere to any of the requirements outlined above may result in a breach of this Policy. Breaches are taken very seriously by Janus Henderson. Any potential violation of the provisions of the Policy will be investigated by Compliance and, if necessary, the Ethics & Conflicts Committee. If a determination is made that

Gifts & Entertainment Received Policy

a violation has occurred, the Ethics & Conflicts Committee may impose an appropriate sanction in its discretion, up to and including termination of employment.

Participation in other Entertainment is allowed with permission from the applicable Head of Trading.

Gifts & Entertainment Received Policy

Appendix II: U.K. and Europe Requirements

Limits and Thresholds

The FCA has prohibited the receipt of anything other than “acceptable minor non-monetary benefits” in connection with the provision of an investment service or an ancillary service. Therefore, Employees in the UK and Europe may receive Gifts or Entertainment that do not qualify as acceptable minor non-monetary benefits only if the Gift or Entertainment is unrelated to the provision of an investment service or an ancillary service. In making this determination, Compliance will evaluate all relevant factors, including the Employee’s position, the nature of the Gifts or Entertainment and the nature of the Business Relationship. By way of example, a Gift or Entertainment, such as invitations to a sporting or social event, provided by a software vendor to a member of the Finance team would likely not be related to the provision of an investment service or an ancillary service. For any Gift or Entertainment that is determined to be unrelated to the provision of an investment service or an ancillary service, the limits and thresholds described below apply. For other Gifts or Entertainment, the stricter limits and thresholds outlined in the “Additional Restrictions” section apply. Regardless of how a Gift or Entertainment is categorized, the approver must consider the appropriateness of the receipt of the Gift or Entertainment by the Employee when reviewing for approval.


Category	Disclosure Threshold	Individual Limit (per event)	Annual Limit (per provider)

Business Meals	£10	£225	£1125 (combined)

Additional Restrictions for Front Office and Distribution Employees

The FCA has prohibited the receipt of anything other than “acceptable minor non-monetary benefits” in connection with the provision of an investment service or an ancillary service. Therefore, Employees in the Front Office and Distribution functions may only receive acceptable minor non-monetary benefits. Acceptable minor non-monetary benefits are those which are (i) capable of enhancing the quality of service provided to the Client; (ii) of a scale and nature that they could not be judged to impair Janus Henderson’s compliance with its duty to act honestly, fairly and professionally in the best interests of the Client; and (iii) reasonable, proportionate and of a scale that is unlikely to influence Janus Henderson’s behaviour in any way that is detrimental to the interests of the relevant Client. For purposes of this Policy, this is limited to participation in conferences, seminars and other training events on the benefits and features of a specific financial instrument or an investment service, and hospitality of a reasonable de minimis value, such as food and drink during a business meeting, or a conference, seminar or other training event. The following limits and thresholds apply.

Political Activities Policy

1	Overview

1.1

Policy Statement

We recognize that, as active members of the community and involved citizens, our directors, officers and employees may participate from time to time in political activities that may include contributions to political candidates. Although we encourage civic and community involvement by our directors, officers and employees, we seek to avoid any situation that could curtail our current or prospective business opportunities, raises a potential or actual conflict of interest or creates an appearance of impropriety.

This Political Activities Policy (the “Policy”) addresses Rule 206(4)-5 (the “Rule”) of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended and related recordkeeping rules regarding political activity by investment advisers and their employees who do business with government entities and the use of placement agents. Many states and local municipalities also have their own legislative and regulatory requirements regarding political activity by investment advisers who conduct business with entities under their control. This Policy is designed to address the Rule and these specific jurisdictional regulations (refer to Political Activities Policy Background for more information).

1.2

Key principles

The Rule is intended to remove the connection between political contributions to state and local officials who may have influence over awarding government and public pension investment advisory business (i.e., “pay-to-play” practices):

•

The following individuals must request pre-approval for any political Contributions and Activities:

^○

All Janus Henderson employees

^○

All family members (i.e., a spouse, domestic partner or minor children) of Janus Henderson officers

•

All employees must ensure they are aware of the requirements of this Policy;

•

At all times the interests of clients, in this case Janus Henderson funds and client accounts, take priority over the personal political interests of employees;

•

Only Covered Associates are allowed to “solicit” investment advisory services from Government Entities;

•

No employee may, directly or indirectly, use a third-party to solicit investment advisory services without pre-approval from Compliance; and

•

Employees are prohibited from performing any act which would result in a violation of this Policy whether directly or through or by any other person or means.

1.3

Scope

This Policy applies to Janus Henderson Group plc (“Janus Henderson”), its subsidiaries and affiliates, and their employees.

Political Activities Policy

1.4

Roles and Responsibilities

Employees are required to request pre-approval for all Political Contributions and Activities via MyComplianceOffice.

Compliance, and Legal as necessary, will review all political activities pre-clearance requests and “Candidate Political Activities Disclosure Details” for potential employees before they are hired.

The Ethics Committee provides oversight of the policy by approving certain requests, reviewing quarterly political contribution and activity reports for potential conflicts and issuing reprimands for policy violations.

Compliance will notify individual employees of his or her status as a Covered Associate and will maintain and update these lists as necessary. Individuals may not solicit investment advisory services to Government Entities, or be promoted, transferred, or otherwise hold a Covered Associate position, unless they have been pre-approved by Compliance.

Compliance will work with Human Resources to screen potential hires and internal transfers who may be entering or exiting Covered Associate status to ascertain if their political contributions have or have not exceeded the applicable de minimis limits prescribed by the Rule or any state, local or contractual limitation.

3.2

Pre-Approval

Employees should submit all requests for pre-approval to Compliance via MCO. Compliance, and Legal as necessary, will review all requests to determine whether they are permissible based on the requirements of this Policy as well as applicable federal, state and local restrictions in accordance with the Political Activities Procedures . In general, employees may make Contributions of $150 to a candidate per election, subject to Compliance approval.. If employees are unsure if a Contribution or Activity would comply with this Policy and federal, state or local requirements or require pre-approval, please consult with the Compliance or Legal Department.

All officers must also obtain written approval from Compliance before a family member (i.e., a spouse, domestic partner or minor children) makes a Contribution or engages in any political activity.

Version: 1.0

Personal Code of Ethics

Personal Code of Ethics – Non-Executive (Outside) Directors

The following rules apply to the Non-Executive (Outside) Directors of Janus Henderson Group.

Personal Account Dealing Requirements

Janus Henderson Mutual Funds – Ninety Day Rule

Trading in and out of Janus Henderson Funds within 90 days is discouraged. If you do, then you must surrender any profits resulting from the purchase and subsequent sale, or sale and subsequent purchase. The Ninety Day Rule does not apply to systematic transactions such as payroll deduction, automatic monthly investments, or 401(k) contributions. However, it does apply to all other non-systematic transactions including periodic rebalancing. Profit calculations are determined by the First-in, First-out (FIFO) method.

Trading in JHG Securities

Insider trading laws prohibit the trading of securities based on your knowledge of material, non-public information. Since you routinely have access to material, non-public information regarding JHG, you are deemed an Insider and a Restricted Person and are subject to the policies outlined below.

As a Director of JHG:

You are required to preclear any JHG transactions;

You are prohibited from engaging in short sales of JHG; and

You are not allowed to pledge your JHG stock shares.

Our Policy prohibits short term trading in JHG and JHG transactions that are speculative in nature. Speculative trading is characterized by short sales, transactions in “put” or “call” options or similar derivative transactions. Janus Henderson allows you to trade in JHG shares only during the Window Period. The Window Period generally opens the day Janus Henderson publicly announces its quarterly earnings and closes at each quarter end. Unless you have received permission from Compliance, you may not trade JHG outside the Window Period. Non-discretionary transactions in JHG securities do not require preclearance (e.g., the grant of JHG as part of a compensation or benefit plan).

Personal Code of Ethics

Personal Code of Ethics – Independent Fund Trustees

The following provisions apply to the Independent Trustees of the Janus Investment Fund (JIF), the Janus Aspen Series (JAS), and the Janus Detroit and Clayton Street Trusts. Interested Trustees are subject to all provisions of the Policy.

Personal Account Dealing Requirements

Disclosure Requirements

As an Independent Trustee, you must disclose to Compliance any new and existing accounts in which you have beneficial ownership through which shares of Janus Henderson Products are held. You must complete the disclosures and certify annually thereafter. In addition, you must allow your brokers or financial institutions to provide duplicate account statements to Compliance.

Trades in Covered Securities

You must refrain from trading in a Covered Security when you have knowledge of Janus trading recommendations for that security. Additionally, you must certify annually that you adhered to this requirement.

Janus Henderson Mutual Funds – Ninety Day Rule for Trustees of JIF/JAS

JHG Securities

Independent Trustees are prohibited from owning Janus Henderson Group (JHG) securities.

Communications with the Investment Team

Janus provides regular information about investment activities in board meetings, meetings of the Trustees’ Investment Oversight Committee where portfolio managers meet and present to the Trustees, on the Trustee website, and ongoing communications between Janus and the Trustees. In addition, Janus personnel respond to inquiries from Trustees, particularly as they relate to general strategy considerations or economic or market conditions affecting the Funds. The mutual funds holdings disclosure policy specifically provides that, for legitimate business purposes, the Trustees may receive non-public portfolio holdings. With regard to specific holdings, however, Janus typically does not communicate specific trading or holdings information to Trustees except as set forth above and in accordance with the policy. Any pattern of repeated requests for specific trading information not in accordance with the mutual funds holdings disclosure policy will be reported to the Chief Compliance Officer.

Personal Code of Ethics

Gifts and Entertainment Policy for Trustees

Gifts

As an Independent Trustee, you are prohibited from soliciting gifts or entertainment from Janus Henderson. You may not receive more than $100 in gifts in a calendar year from Janus Henderson. Gifts are things of value received where there was no direct meeting with Janus Henderson.

Entertainment

You may attend Janus Henderson hosted events, (such as occasional meals, sporting events, theatre/Broadway shows, golf outings, an invitation to a reception or cocktail party or comparable entertainment where Janus Henderson personnel are in attendance). The maximum per outing is a $300 value and, if applicable, a $600 value for you and your guest. The limits apply to the total market value cost (not face value) of the outing, including meals, travel (airfare/ hotels/ cars), sporting events, limo rides, etc. The aggregate value of all such benefits may not exceed $1,500 per calendar year. These limitations do not apply to meals served in conjunction with board meetings.
