Flows and Assets Under Management Assets Under Management (AUM) is a term used by financial services companies in the mutual fund and money management or investment management business to gauge how much money they are managing.  (AUM Aum (ä·ōōmˑ),
n.pr 1. in Ayurveda, the subtle, noiseless cosmic vibration in which consciousness existed in the beginning, before the elements appeared.
)

Average assets under management in the first quarter were $133.8 billion versus $134.9 billion in the fourth quarter of 2004 and $148.4 billion in the first quarter 2004. At March 31, 2005, assets under management (AUM) were $132.2 billion compared with $139.0 billion at December December: see month.  31, 2004, and $145.0 billion at March 31, 2004. The decline in assets between December 2004 and March 2005 reflects long-term net outflows of $1.9 billion, market depreciation of $2.6 billion, and money market net outflows of $2.3 billion during the quarter.

Long-term net outflows of $1.9 billion represented an improvement compared with $2.6 billion of net outflows in the fourth quarter of 2004 and $7.7 billion in the first quarter of 2004. (The fourth quarter 2004 net outflow figure included a previously disclosed dis·close

Adjusted Investment Management Segment

Revenue declined $33.9 million from $249.9 million in the first quarter of 2004 to $216.0 million in the first quarter of 2005. The 13.6% revenue decrease is consistent with the 9.8% decrease in average assets under management combined with approximately $5 million of management fee reductions that occurred as part of Janus' settlement with regulators, effective July July: see month.  1, 2004. The decline in management fee revenue was partially offset by a $6.4 million increase in INTECH performance fees to $7.2 million.

Adjusted operating expenses Operating expenses

The amount paid for asset maintenance or the cost of doing business, excluding depreciation. Earnings are distributed after operating expenses are deducted.
 increased $4.3 million, principally due to increases in employee compensation and marketing offset by decreases in distribution and depreciation expenses. The increase in employee compensation was due in part to incentive compensation directly linked to improved relative investment performance. The $5.6 million increase in total marketing expenditures was due to the TV and print advertising campaigns that occurred in the first quarter of 2005, as well as the launch of two new retail funds. In the first quarter of 2004 there was no advertising spending. Distribution expense declined due to a decrease in assets on which distribution fees are paid. Depreciation and Amortization declined 27.1% from $14.0 million in the first quarter of 2004 to $10.2 million in the current quarter due to lower levels of capital investment in recent years. General and Administrative expenses were generally flat year over year.

Interest expense declined over the same quarter one year ago due to lower interest payments as a result of approximately $474 million of debt retirement during the second quarter 2004. Other income increased from the beneficial impact of rising interest rates on Janus' cash balances and investments.

JANUS CAPITAL GROUP INC.
                       Non-GAAP Reconciliations
             (dollars in millions, except per share data)

Janus management analyzes historical results after adjusting for
certain items that are not ongoing or are non-operational in nature.
The company believes that excluding these items is useful to
management and investors because it provides a more comparable basis
for evaluating Janus' operating results and financial performance over
time. Internally, these adjusted results are used to evaluate the
performance of the company.

(1) Charges related to the closure of the Bay Isle Financial LLC
    facility in Oakland, California, severance of a Bay Isle portfolio
    manager and impairment of intangibles associated with the loss of
    institutional accounts.

(2) Insurance recovery of $6.0 million for legal expenses incurred
    related to the mutual fund investigation, net of first quarter
    2005 legal fees and other expenses.

(3) Realized gain on the sale of investments. In the first quarter of
    2005, the Company reduced its seed capital investments in advised
    funds by $22.8 million. This reduction in seed capital produced
    gains of $2.5 million on an after-tax basis.

(4) Includes tax effect of adjustments. Also, on March 31, 2005, 1.3
    million shares of Janus common stock granted in 2002 vested at a
    price significantly below the grant price of approximately $26 per
    share. This vesting resulted in a permanent book-tax difference,
    which directly increased income tax expense. 3Q04 includes the
    reversal of a $22.5 million tax contingency and related accrued
    interest of $2.5 million.

(5) Equity awards granted on a vested basis in 2004.

(6) Charges related to severance payments and the accelerated vesting
    of restricted stock as a result of executive level departures
    including Janus' former CEO during 2Q04.

(7) Charge of $8.2 million related to the closure of Janus' Austin,
    Texas, facility in 2001 and the pretax loss of $2.0 million from
    the sale of Bay Isle Financial LLC's Private Client Asset
    Management Division.

(8) Charges related to the mutual fund investigation, including civil
    penalties, restoration, legal and other administrative costs.

(9) Pretax gain of $228.0 million from the sale of 7.4 million shares
    of DST to an unrelated third party.

(10) Loss of $55.5 million primarily related to the premium paid to
    exchange old for new notes with lower interest rates.

(11) An impairment charge of $14.2 million was recorded associated
    with the termination notices received in the first quarter of 2004
    from certain subadvised accounts.

(12) Charges related to the closure of a non-strategic facility.

1)  All figures unaudited.
2)  Closed to new investors.
3)  This Fund has been significantly impacted, either positively or
    negatively, by investing in initial public offerings (IPOs).
4)  This Fund may have significant exposure to emerging markets which
    may lead to greater price volatility.
5)  A 2% redemption fee may be imposed on shares held for 3 months or
    less. Performance shown does not reflect this redemption fee and,
    if reflected, performance would have been lower.
6)  The voluntary waiver of the Fund's management fee terminated on
    June 25, 2004. Without such waivers total returns from inception
    to June 24, 2004 would have been lower.
7)  Returns have sustained significant gains and losses due to market
    volatility in the consumer discretionary sector.
8)  Returns shown for Janus Small Cap Value Fund prior to April 21,
    2003, are those of Berger Small Cap Value Fund.
9)  Bond funds have the same interest rate, inflation, and credit
    risks that are associated with the underlying bonds owned by the
    Fund. Unlike owning individual bonds, there are ongoing fees and
    expenses associated with owning shares of bonds funds. The return
    of principal is not guaranteed due to net asset value fluctuation
    that is caused by changes in the price of specific bonds held in
    the Fund and selling of bonds within the fund by the Portfolio
    Manager.
10) As of March 31, 2005, the 30-day SEC Yield was 3.17% on Janus
    Federal Tax-Exempt Fund, 4.10% on Janus Flexible Income Fund,
    5.71% on Janus High-Yield Fund and 3.08% on Janus Short-Term Bond
    Fund.
11) Adviser has agreed to waive a portion of the Fund's expenses if
    they exceed the designated cap. If during the periods shown, the
    Fund's actual expenses exceeded the cap, its total return would
    have been lower. There were no waivers in effect for the most
    recent period presented.
12) Returns shown for Janus Mid Cap Value Fund prior to April 21,
    2003, are those of Berger Mid Cap Value Fund.
13) Janus Capital has contractually agreed to waive Janus Short-Term
    Bond Fund and Janus Federal Tax-Exempt Fund's total operating
    expenses to the levels indicated in the prospectus until at least
    March 1, 2006. Without such waivers, Janus Short-Term Bond Fund
    and Janus Federal Tax-Exempt Fund's yield would have been 2.46%
    and 2.40%, respectively and total returns would have been lower.
14) Income may be subject to state or local taxes and to a limited
    extent certain federal tax. Capital gains are subject to federal,
    state and local taxes.

A fund's performance may be affected by risks that include those
associated with non-diversification, investments in foreign
securities, non-investment grade debt securities, undervalued
companies or companies with a relatively small market capitalization.
