  II ClearBridge Tactical Dividend Income Fund

Fund overview

Q. What is the Fund’s investment strategy?

A. The Fund’s primary investment objective is to generate high current income, with capital appreciation as a secondary objective. Under normal circumstances, the Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets, plus the amount of borrowings for investment purposes, if any, in equity and equity-related securities that provide investment income, dividend payments or other distributions or in other investments with similar economic characteristics. The Fund may invest in equity and equity-related securities of issuers with any market capitalization.

The Fund invests in a diversified portfolio of equity and equity-related securities, including common stocks, preferred stocks, convertible preferred stocks and other securities convertible into equity securities, master limited partnerships (“MLPs”), real estate investment trusts (“REITs”), closed-end investment companies, including business development companies (“BDCs”), and royalty trusts. The Fund may invest up to 50% of its net assets in foreign securities, including securities of issuers in emerging market countries.

The Fund may also seek to generate current income from short-term gains earned through an option strategy which may consist of writing (selling) call options on equity securities in its portfolio (“covered calls”) and on broader equity market indexes, or writing (selling) put options on such securities or indexes. The Fund’s investments in options on equity securities and equity market indexes are included in the Fund’s 80% policy.

The Fund may invest up to 20% of its assets in fixed income securities of any credit quality, including securities rated below investment grade or, if unrated, that we deemed to be of comparable quality (“high yield” or “junk” bonds). The Fund’s investments in fixed income securities may include structured notes.

By conducting fundamental research and dividend analysis, we seek to identify companies that have the ability to pay attractive dividends and have assets or earnings prospects that we believe are either unrecognized or undervalued, have attractive valuations, or are expected to have positive changes in earnings prospects. We combine bottom-up stock selection with top-down thematic overlay to construct a diversified portfolio with a focus on generating high current income.

Q. What were the overall market conditions during the Fund’s reporting period?

A. Equities delivered positive returns during the twelve-months reporting period ended October 31, 2023, with the broad market S&P 500 Indexⁱ advancing 10.14%. Resilient corporate earnings among mega cap growth stocks and investor enthusiasm about the potential for artificial intelligence (“AI”) led to outsized returns by the communication services (+35.77%) and information technology (“IT”) (+33.15%) sectors. Continued interest rate hikes by the Federal Reserve Board (the “Fed”) to tame inflation drove U.S. Treasury yields up 88 basis points to 4.93% at the end of the reporting period and weighed on income-oriented sectors such as utilities (-7.72%), real estate (-4.56%) and consumer staples (-3.40%). The health care sector (-4.56%) was also out of favor as a rise in health

care system utilization following the pandemic raised costs. Larger cap stocks outperformed smaller caps during the period, with the Russell 1000 Indexⁱⁱ returning 9.48% compared to the -8.56% return of the Russell 2000 Indexⁱⁱⁱ. The strong performance of AI beneficiaries helped the Russell 1000 Growth Index^iv outperform the Russell 1000 Value Index^v by over 1,800 basis points, with the indexes returning 18.95% and 0.13%, respectively.

Initial signs of progress in the Fed’s efforts to tame generationally high inflation supported equities in the fourth quarter of 2022 and the first quarter of 2023, with strong performance among defensive and cyclical¹ stocks.

In March, markets focused on the U.S. banking system after significant market losses in Silicon Valley Bank’s securities portfolio spurred a run on the bank’s deposits and resulted in the second-largest bank failure in U.S. history. This sparked a crisis of confidence across small and midsize regional banks, as consumers shifted their deposits to larger banks perceived to be more stable. Although contagion concerns had eased by the end of the month, the crisis intensified concern over the probability and severity of a recession as banks are likely to tighten lending standards.

Stocks rose in the second quarter as investors took cooling inflation to mean the Fed’s tightening cycle was nearing its conclusion. Simultaneously, enthusiasm grew over the potential applications and benefits of AI. The result was positive overall market performance with gains particularly concentrated in a handful of mega cap companies in the IT, consumer discretionary and communication services sectors.

Market leadership began to broaden by the beginning of the third quarter as better-than-expected corporate earnings and cooling inflation created a growing chorus for a soft landing for the economy (rather than a recession). This helped provide a bid to smaller and more economically sensitive stocks on the hopes that the Fed would reach its rate hike zenith, or even reduce rates, before the end of the year. However, as the quarter wore on, stubborn inflationary data, continued economic resiliency and surging U.S. Treasury yields pushed out rate cut expectations further into the future.

Q. How did we respond to these changing market conditions?

A. The Fund invests in equity securities that exhibit an attractive income stream, including dividend-paying stocks, energy MLPs and REITs. During the reporting period we did not greatly alter the weights of our exposures to these types of securities but found idiosyncratic opportunities to improve the portfolio’s long-term positioning.

Market risks remained elevated as a result of the continued slowdown in economic activity due to higher interest rates and overall tightening of financial conditions. We maintained the Fund’s focus on income-producing stocks with larger new positions in convertible preferred shares of Apollo Global Management, an alternative asset manager increasingly

being recognized for the stable growth of its fixed annuities business, as well as utility PPL and consumer staples companies Colgate-Palmolive and McCormick. We also initiated a position in T-Mobile, a best-in-class player in the wireless space, which announced its inaugural dividend in September. The initial yield is about 2% and it is expected to grow about 10% per year.

The commercial real estate market continued to see weakness as higher interest rates and associated real estate borrowing costs put pressure on real estate asset values and REIT share prices. We were tactical in this environment with the purchase of Digital Realty Trust, which operates in the attractive data center end market, and Extra Space Storage, a self-storage REIT able to nimbly adjust its rates in an inflationary environment. We also added to Prologis, a logistics REIT we believe is a high-quality compounder benefiting from long-term secular drivers including the continued rise in e-commerce penetration. At the same time, we lowered exposures in more challenging real estate areas such office REITs, with the sale of Alexandria Real Estate Equities, and communication towers, where we exited Crown Castle and SBA Communications.

Performance review

For the twelve months ended October 31, 2023, Class A shares of ClearBridge Tactical Dividend Income Fund, excluding sales charges, returned 6.14%. The Fund’s unmanaged benchmark, the Dow Jones U.S. Select Dividend Index^vi, returned -7.53% and the Fund’s Composite Benchmark^vii returned 1.47% for the same period.

The performance shown represents past performance. Past performance is no guarantee of future results and current performance may be higher or lower than the performance shown above. Principal value and investment returns will fluctuate and investors’ shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. To obtain performance data current to the most recent month-end, please visit our website at www.franklintempleton.com.

All share class returns assume the reinvestment of all distributions, including returns of capital, at net asset value and the deduction of all Fund expenses. Returns have not been adjusted to include sales charges that may apply or the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions. If sales charges were reflected, the performance quoted would be lower. Performance figures for periods shorter than one year represent cumulative figures and are not annualized.

ClearBridge Tactical Dividend Income Fund 2023 Annual Report   3

Fund overview (cont’d)

Fund performance figures reflect fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements, without which the performance would have been lower.

Total Annual Operating Expenses (unaudited)

As of the Fund’s current prospectus dated March 1, 2023, the gross total annual fund operating expense ratios for Class A, Class C, Class I and Class IS shares were 1.43%, 2.17%, 1.19% and 1.08%, respectively.

Actual expenses may be higher. For example, expenses may be higher than those shown if average net assets decrease. Net assets are more likely to decrease and Fund expense ratios are more likely to increase when markets are volatile.

As a result of expense limitation arrangements, the ratio of total annual fund operating expenses, other than interest, brokerage commissions, taxes, extraordinary expenses and acquired fund fees and expenses, to average net assets will not exceed 1.19% for Class A shares, 2.00% for Class C shares, 1.00% for Class I shares and 0.90% for Class IS shares. In addition, the ratio of total annual fund operating expenses for Class IS shares will not exceed the ratio of total annual fund operating expenses for Class I shares. Total annual fund operating expenses, after waiving fees and/or reimbursing expenses, exceed the expense limitation (“expense cap”) for each class as a result of acquired fund fees and expenses. These expense limitation arrangements cannot be terminated prior to December 31, 2025 without the Board of Trustees’ consent. In addition, the manager has agreed to waive the Fund’s management fee to an extent sufficient to offset the net management fee payable in connection with any investment in an affiliated money market fund. This management fee waiver is not subject to the recapture provision discussed below.

The manager is also permitted to recapture amounts waived and/or reimbursed to a class during the same fiscal year if the class’ total annual fund operating expenses have fallen to a level below the expense cap in effect at the time the fees were earned or the expenses incurred. In no case will the manager recapture any amount that would result, on any particular business day of the Fund, in the class’ total annual fund operating expenses exceeding the expense cap or any other lower limit then in effect.

Q. What were the leading contributors to performance?

A. For the reporting period, on an absolute basis, the Fund saw the strongest contributions from the IT and energy sectors. Relative to the Fund’s blended benchmark, stock selection in the IT and financials sectors, an overweight to the IT sector and an underweight to the real estate sector contributed positively.

In terms of individual Fund holdings, leading contributors to performance for the reporting period included Broadcom, Microsoft, Magellan Midstream Partners, Energy Transfer and Plains GP Holdings.

Q. What were the leading detractors from performance?

A. On an absolute basis, the utilities, health care and real estate sectors detracted the most. Relative to the Fund’s blended benchmark, stock selection in the utilities and communication services sectors were leading detractors. In sector allocation, overweights to the financials and utilities sectors weighed on returns.

  4 ClearBridge Tactical Dividend Income Fund 2023 Annual Report

At the security level, leading detractors included Pfizer, NextEra Energy Partners, Alexandria Real Estate Equities, NextEra Energy and Bank of America.

Q. Were there any significant changes to the Fund during the reporting period?

A. Larger positions initiated included convertible preferred shares of Apollo Global Management in the financials sector, 4.6% equity units of NextEra Energy and common shares of PPL in the utilities sector, and Digital Realty Trust in the real estate sector. Magellan Midstream Partners in the energy sector was acquired by ONEOK, whose shares we received and retained. Large positions exited included 6% convertible preferred shares of KKR in the financials sector, T-Mobile 5.25% convertible preferred shares, in the communication services sector, Danaher in the health care sector, RTX in the industrials sector and Diamondback Energy in the energy sector.

RISKS: Equity and equity-related securities are subject to market and price fluctuations. Investments in small- and medium-capitalization companies may involve a higher degree of risk and volatility than investments in larger, more established companies. Investing in foreign securities is subject to certain risks not associated with domestic investing, such as currency fluctuations, and changes in political, social and economic conditions, which could increase volatility. These risks are heightened in emerging markets. Emerging markets countries tend to have economic, political and legal systems that are less developed and are less stable than those of more developed countries. The Fund may use derivatives, such as options and futures, which can be illiquid, may disproportionately increase losses, and have a potentially large impact on Fund performance.

ClearBridge Tactical Dividend Income Fund 2023 Annual Report   5

Fund overview (cont’d)

The Fund may invest in real estate investment trusts (“REITs”), which are closely linked to the performance of the real estate markets. REITs are subject to illiquidity, credit and interest rate risks, as well as the risks associated with the real estate markets. Investments in MLPs include the risks of declines in energy and commodity prices, decreases in energy demand, adverse weather conditions, natural or other disasters, changes in government regulation, changes in tax laws, and other risks of the MLP and energy sector. The Fund may engage in short selling, which is a speculative strategy that involves special risks. Unlike the possible loss on a security that is purchased, there is no limit on the amount of loss on an appreciating security that is sold short. Dividends fluctuate and are subject to change. Dividends represent past performance and there is no guarantee they will continue to be paid. Diversification does not guarantee a profit or protect against a loss. The market values of securities or other assets will fluctuate, sometimes sharply and unpredictably, due to changes in general market conditions, overall economic trends or events, governmental actions or intervention, actions taken by the U.S. Federal Reserve or foreign central banks, market disruptions caused by trade disputes or other factors, political developments, armed conflicts, economic sanctions and countermeasures in response to sanctions, major cybersecurity events, investor sentiment, the global and domestic effects of a pandemic, and other factors that may or may not be related to the issuer of the security or other asset. Please see the Fund’s prospectus for a more complete discussion of these and other risks and the Fund’s investment strategies.

Fund expenses (unaudited)

Example

As a shareholder of the Fund, you may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including front-end and back-end sales charges (loads) on purchase payments; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; service and/or distribution (12b-1) fees; and other Fund expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

This example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested on May 1, 2023 and held for the six months ended October 31, 2023.

Actual expenses

The table below titled “Based on actual total return” provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information provided in this table, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. To estimate the expenses you paid on your account, divide your ending account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 ending account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During the Period”.

Hypothetical example for comparison purposes

The table below titled “Based on hypothetical total return” provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5.00% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use the information provided in this table to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare the 5.00% hypothetical example relating to the Fund with the 5.00% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table below are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as front-end or back-end sales charges (loads). Therefore, the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transaction costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

Effective August 15, 2022, the maximum initial sales charge was reduced to 5.50%. Returns based on an initial investment made prior to August 15, 2022 have not been restated to reflect the new maximum initial sales charge. The hypothetical illustration also assumes a $10,000 investment in the Dow Jones U.S. Select Dividend Index and the Composite Benchmark. The Dow Jones U.S. Select Dividend Index consists of 100 of the highest dividend-yielding securities (excluding REITs) in the Dow Jones U.S. Index, a broad-based index representative of the total market for the United States equity securities. The Composite Benchmark is a representation of the performance of the Fund’s major asset classes. It consists of 60% Russell 3000 Value Index, 20% Alerian MLP Index and 20% MSCI U.S. REIT Index. The Russell 3000 Value Index measures the performance of the broad value segment of the U.S. equity value universe. It includes those Russell 3000 Index companies with lower price-to-book ratios and lower forecasted growth values. The Alerian MLP Index is a composite of the fifty most prominent energy master limited partnerships (“MLPs”) and is calculated using a float-adjusted, capitalization-weighted methodology. The MSCI U.S. REIT Index is a free float-adjusted market capitalization weighted index that is comprised of equity Real Estate Investment Trusts (“REITs”) that are included in the MSCI U.S. Investable Market Index (IMI), which captures large-, mid- and small-cap securities. The index represents about 99% of the U.S. REIT universe. The indices are unmanaged and are not subject to the same management and trading expenses as a mutual fund. Please note that an investor cannot invest directly in an index. The performance of the Fund’s other classes may be greater or less than the Class A shares’ performance indicated on this chart, depending on whether greater or lesser sales charges and fees were incurred by shareholders investing in the other classes.

ClearBridge Tactical Dividend Income Fund 2023 Annual Report   25

Notes to financial statements

1. Organization and significant accounting policies

ClearBridge Tactical Dividend Income Fund (the “Fund”) is a separate diversified investment series of Legg Mason Partners Investment Trust (the “Trust”). The Trust, a Maryland statutory trust, is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company.

The Fund follows the accounting and reporting guidance in Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946, Financial Services – Investment Companies (“ASC 946”). The following are significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund and are in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), including, but not limited to, ASC 946. Estimates and assumptions are required to be made regarding assets, liabilities and changes in net assets resulting from operations when financial statements are prepared. Changes in the economic environment, financial markets and any other parameters used in determining these estimates could cause actual results to differ. Subsequent events have been evaluated through the date the financial statements were issued.

(a) Investment valuation. Equity securities for which market quotations are available are valued at the last reported sales price or official closing price on the primary market or exchange on which they trade. The valuations for fixed income securities (which may include, but are not limited to, corporate, government, municipal, mortgage-backed, collateralized mortgage obligations and asset-backed securities) and certain derivative instruments are typically the prices supplied by independent third party pricing services, which may use market prices or broker/dealer quotations or a variety of valuation techniques and methodologies. The independent third party pricing services typically use inputs that are observable such as issuer details, interest rates, yield curves, prepayment speeds, credit risks/spreads, default rates and quoted prices for similar securities. Investments in open-end funds are valued at the closing net asset value per share of each fund on the day of valuation. When the Fund holds securities or other assets that are denominated in a foreign currency, the Fund will normally use the currency exchange rates as of 4:00 p.m. (Eastern Time). If independent third party pricing services are unable to supply prices for a portfolio investment, or if the prices supplied are deemed by the manager to be unreliable, the market price may be determined by the manager using quotations from one or more broker/dealers or at the transaction price if the security has recently been purchased and no value has yet been obtained from a pricing service or pricing broker. When reliable prices are not readily available, such as when the value of a security has been significantly affected by events after the close of the exchange or market on which the security is principally traded, but before the Fund calculates its net asset value, the Fund values these securities as determined in accordance with procedures approved by the Fund’s Board of Trustees.

  26 ClearBridge Tactical Dividend Income Fund 2023 Annual Report

Pursuant to policies adopted by the Board of Trustees, the Fund’s manager has been designated as the valuation designee and is responsible for the oversight of the daily valuation process. The Fund’s manager is assisted by the Global Fund Valuation Committee (the “Valuation Committee”). The Valuation Committee is responsible for making fair value determinations, evaluating the effectiveness of the Fund’s pricing policies, and reporting to the Fund’s manager and the Board of Trustees. When determining the reliability of third party pricing information for investments owned by the Fund, the Valuation Committee, among other things, conducts due diligence reviews of pricing vendors, monitors the daily change in prices and reviews transactions among market participants.

The Valuation Committee will consider pricing methodologies it deems relevant and appropriate when making fair value determinations. Examples of possible methodologies include, but are not limited to, multiple of earnings; discount from market of a similar freely traded security; discounted cash-flow analysis; book value or a multiple thereof; risk premium/yield analysis; yield to maturity; and/or fundamental investment analysis. The Valuation Committee will also consider factors it deems relevant and appropriate in light of the facts and circumstances. Examples of possible factors include, but are not limited to, the type of security; the issuer’s financial statements; the purchase price of the security; the discount from market value of unrestricted securities of the same class at the time of purchase; analysts’ research and observations from financial institutions; information regarding any transactions or offers with respect to the security; the existence of merger proposals or tender offers affecting the security; the price and extent of public trading in similar securities of the issuer or comparable companies; and the existence of a shelf registration for restricted securities.

For each portfolio security that has been fair valued pursuant to the policies adopted by the Board of Trustees, the fair value price is compared against the last available and next available market quotations. The Valuation Committee reviews the results of such back testing monthly and fair valuation occurrences are reported to the Board of Trustees quarterly.

The Fund uses valuation techniques to measure fair value that are consistent with the market approach and/or income approach, depending on the type of security and the particular circumstance. The market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable securities. The income approach uses valuation techniques to discount estimated future cash flows to present value.

ClearBridge Tactical Dividend Income Fund 2023 Annual Report   27

Notes to financial statements (cont’d)

GAAP establishes a disclosure hierarchy that categorizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to value assets and liabilities at measurement date. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

• Level 1 — unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical investments

• Level 2 — other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.)

• Level 3 — significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)

The inputs or methodologies used to value securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

The following is a summary of the inputs used in valuing the Fund’s assets carried at fair value:

	ASSETS
Description	Quoted Prices (Level 1)		Other Significant Observable Inputs (Level 2)		Significant Unobservable Inputs ( Level 3)		Total
Long-Term Investments†:
Common Stocks	$	208,914,785		—		—	$	208,914,785
Master Limited Partnerships		60,955,833		—		—		60,955,833
Convertible Preferred Stocks		14,928,000		—		—		14,928,000
Investments in Underlying Funds		5,285,290		—		—		5,285,290
Total Long-Term Investments		290,083,908		—		—		290,083,908
Short-Term Investments†		1,489,760		—		—		1,489,760
Total Investments	$	291,573,668		—		—	$	291,573,668

† See Schedule of Investments for additional detailed categorizations.

(b) Business development companies. The Fund may invest in securities of closed-end investment companies that have elected to be treated as a business development company under the 1940 Act. The Fund may purchase a business development company to gain exposure to the securities in the underlying portfolio. The risks of owning a business development company generally reflect the risks of owning the underlying securities. Business development companies have expenses that reduce their value.

(c) Master limited partnerships. The Fund may not invest more than 25% of the value of its total assets in the securities of Master Limited Partnerships (“MLPs”) that are treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as qualified publicly traded partnerships. This 25% limitation applies generally to MLPs that focus on commodity and energy-related industries. Entities commonly referred to as “MLPs” are generally organized under state law as limited partnerships or limited liability companies. To be treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes, an MLP whose units are traded on a securities exchange must receive

  28 ClearBridge Tactical Dividend Income Fund 2023 Annual Report

at least 90% of its income from qualifying sources such as interest, dividends, real estate rents, gain from the sale or disposition of real property, income and gain from mineral or natural resources activities, income and gain from the transportation or storage of certain fuels, and, in certain circumstances, income and gain from commodities or futures, forwards and options with respect to commodities. Mineral or natural resources activities include exploration, development, production, processing, mining, refining, marketing and transportation (including pipelines) of oil and gas, minerals, geothermal energy, fertilizer, timber or industrial source carbon dioxide. An MLP consists of a general partner and limited partners (or in the case of MLPs organized as limited liability companies, a managing member and members). The general partner or managing member typically controls the operations and management of the MLP and has an ownership stake in the partnership. The limited partners or members, through their ownership of limited partner or member interests, provide capital to the entity, are intended to have no role in the operation and management of the entity and receive cash distributions. The MLPs themselves generally do not pay U.S. federal income taxes. Thus, unlike investors in corporate securities, direct MLP investors are generally not subject to double taxation (i.e., corporate level tax and tax on corporate dividends). Currently, most MLPs operate in the energy and/or natural resources sector.

(d) Foreign currency translation. Investment securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollar amounts based upon prevailing exchange rates on the date of valuation. Purchases and sales of investment securities and income and expense items denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollar amounts based upon prevailing exchange rates on the respective dates of such transactions.

The Fund does not isolate that portion of the results of operations resulting from fluctuations in foreign exchange rates on investments from the fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss on investments.

Net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from sales of foreign currencies, including gains and losses on forward foreign currency contracts, currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, and the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest, and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Fund’s books and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses arise from changes in the values of assets and liabilities, other than investments in securities, on the date of valuation, resulting from changes in exchange rates.

ClearBridge Tactical Dividend Income Fund 2023 Annual Report   29

Notes to financial statements (cont’d)

Foreign security and currency transactions may involve certain considerations and risks not typically associated with those of U.S. dollar denominated transactions as a result of, among other factors, the possibility of lower levels of governmental supervision and regulation of foreign securities markets and the possibility of political or economic instability.

(e) Foreign investment risks. The Fund’s investments in foreign securities may involve risks not present in domestic investments. Since securities may be denominated in foreign currencies, may require settlement in foreign currencies or may pay interest or dividends in foreign currencies, changes in the relationship of these foreign currencies to the U.S. dollar can significantly affect the value of the investments and earnings of the Fund. Foreign investments may also subject the Fund to foreign government exchange restrictions, expropriation, taxation or other political, social or economic developments, all of which affect the market and/or credit risk of the investments.

(f) Security transactions and investment income. Security transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Interest income (including interest income from payment-in-kind securities) is recorded on the accrual basis. Amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts on debt securities are recorded to interest income over the lives of the respective securities, except for premiums on certain callable debt securities which are amortized to the earliest call date. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date for dividends received in cash and/or securities. Foreign dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or as soon as practicable after the Fund determines the existence of a dividend declaration after exercising reasonable due diligence. The cost of investments sold is determined by use of the specific identification method. To the extent any issuer defaults or a credit event occurs that impacts the issuer, the Fund may halt any additional interest income accruals and consider the realizability of interest accrued up to the date of default or credit event.

(g) Return of capital estimates. Distributions received from the Fund’s investments in MLPs generally are comprised of income and return of capital and distributions received from the Fund’s investments in Real Estate Investment Trusts (“REITs”) generally are comprised of income, realized capital gains and return of capital. The Fund records investment income, realized capital gains and return of capital based on estimates made at the time such distributions are received. Such estimates are based on historical information available from each MLP or REIT and other industry sources. These estimates may subsequently be revised based on information received from the MLPs and REITs after their tax reporting periods are concluded.

(h) Partnership accounting policy. The Fund records its pro rata share of the income (loss) and capital gains (losses), to the extent of distributions it has received, allocated from the underlying partnerships and accordingly adjusts the cost basis of the underlying partnerships for return of capital. These amounts are included in the Fund’s Statement of Operations.

  30 ClearBridge Tactical Dividend Income Fund 2023 Annual Report

(i) Distributions to shareholders. Distributions are declared and paid on a quarterly basis to shareholders of the Fund and are recorded on ex-dividend date. The Fund intends to distribute all of its net investment income earned each quarter and any cash received during the quarter from its investments in MLPs and REITs. The Fund intends to distribute the cash received from MLPs and REITs even if all or a portion of that cash may represent a return of capital to the Fund. The Fund may distribute additional amounts if required under the income tax regulations. Distributions of net realized gains, if any, are declared at least annually. The character of distributions made to shareholders during the period may differ from their ultimate characterization for federal income tax purposes.

(j) Share class accounting. Investment income, common expenses and realized/unrealized gains (losses) on investments are allocated to the various classes of the Fund on the basis of daily net assets of each class. Fees relating to a specific class are charged directly to that share class.

(k) Compensating balance arrangements. The Fund has an arrangement with its custodian bank whereby a portion of the custodian’s fees is paid indirectly by credits earned on the Fund’s cash on deposit with the bank.

(l) Federal and other taxes. It is the Fund’s policy to comply with the federal income and excise tax requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”), as amended, applicable to regulated investment companies. Accordingly, the Fund intends to distribute its taxable income and net realized gains, if any, to shareholders in accordance with timing requirements imposed by the Code. Therefore, no federal or state income tax provision is required in the Fund’s financial statements.

The Fund may invest in MLPs, which generally are treated as partnerships for federal income tax purposes. As a limited partner in the MLPs, the Fund reports its allocable share of the MLP’s taxable income in computing its own taxable income. The distributions paid by the MLPs generally do not constitute income for tax purposes. Each MLP may allocate losses to the Fund which are generally not deductible in computing the Fund’s taxable income until such time as that particular MLP either generates income to offset those losses or the Fund disposes of units in that MLP. This may result in the Fund’s taxable income being substantially different than its book income in any given year. As a result, the Fund may have insufficient taxable income to support its distributions paid resulting in a return of capital to shareholders. A return of capital distribution is generally not treated as taxable income to shareholders and instead reduces a shareholder’s basis in their shares of the Fund.

The Fund, and entities in which the Fund invests, may be subject to audit by the Internal Revenue Service or other applicable tax authorities. The Fund’s taxable income or tax liability for prior taxable years could be adjusted if there is an audit of the Fund, or of any entity that is treated as a partnership for tax purposes in which the Fund holds an equity interest. The Fund may be required to pay a fund-level tax as a result of such an adjustment or may pay a “deficiency dividend” to its current shareholders in order to avoid a fund-level tax associated with the adjustment. The Fund could also be required to pay interest and penalties in connection with such an adjustment.

ClearBridge Tactical Dividend Income Fund 2023 Annual Report   31

Notes to financial statements (cont’d)

Management has analyzed the Fund’s tax positions taken on income tax returns for all open tax years and has concluded that as of October 31, 2023, no provision for income tax is required in the Fund’s financial statements. The Fund’s federal and state income and federal excise tax returns for tax years for which the applicable statutes of limitations have not expired are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and state departments of revenue.

Under the applicable foreign tax laws, a withholding tax may be imposed on interest, dividends and capital gains at various rates.

(m) Reclassification. GAAP requires that certain components of net assets be reclassified to reflect permanent differences between financial and tax reporting. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or net asset value per share. During the current year, the following reclassifications have been made:

	Total Distributable Earnings (Loss)		Paid-in Capital
(a)	$	(45,394)	$	45,394

^(a)  Reclassifications are due to differences between actual and estimated information for the prior year related to the Fund’s investments in REITs and MLPs.

2. Investment management agreement and other transactions with affiliates

Legg Mason Partners Fund Advisor, LLC (“LMPFA”) (effective November 30, 2023, renamed Franklin Templeton Fund Adviser, LLC) is the Fund’s investment manager and ClearBridge Investments, LLC (“ClearBridge”) is the Fund’s subadviser. Western Asset Management Company, LLC (“Western Asset”) manages the portion of the Fund’s cash and short-term instruments allocated to it. LMPFA, ClearBridge and Western Asset are indirect, wholly-owned subsidiaries of Franklin Resources, Inc. (“Franklin Resources”).

Under the investment management agreement, the Fund pays an investment management fee, calculated daily and paid monthly, in accordance with the following breakpoint schedule:

Average Daily Net Assets	Annual Rate
First $1 billion		0.750	%
Next $1 billion		0.725
Next $3 billion		0.700
Next $5 billion		0.675
Over $10 billion		0.650

LMPFA provides administrative and certain oversight services to the Fund. LMPFA delegates to the subadviser the day-to-day portfolio management of the Fund, except for the management of the portion of the Fund’s cash and short-term instruments allocated to

  32 ClearBridge Tactical Dividend Income Fund 2023 Annual Report

Western Asset. For its services, LMPFA pays ClearBridge a fee monthly, at an annual rate equal to 70% of the net management fee it receives from the Fund. For Western Asset’s services to the Fund, LMPFA pays Western Asset monthly 0.02% of the portion of the Fund’s average daily net assets that are allocated to Western Asset by LMPFA.

As a result of expense limitation arrangements between the Fund and LMPFA, the ratio of total annual fund operating expenses, other than interest, brokerage commissions, taxes, extraordinary expenses and acquired fund fees and expenses, to average net assets of Class A, Class C, Class I and Class IS shares did not exceed 1.19%, 2.00%, 1.00% and 0.90%, respectively. In addition, the ratio of total annual fund operating expenses for Class IS shares did not exceed the ratio of total annual fund operating expenses for Class I shares. These expense limitation arrangements cannot be terminated prior to December 31, 2025 without the Board of Trustees’ consent. In addition, the manager has agreed to waive the Fund’s management fee to an extent sufficient to offset the net management fee payable in connection with any investment in an affiliated money market fund (the “affiliated money market fund waiver”). The affiliated money market fund waiver is not subject to the recapture provision discussed below.

During the year ended October 31, 2023, fees waived and/or expenses reimbursed amounted to $15,687, which included an affiliated money market fund waiver of $1,471.

LMPFA is permitted to recapture amounts waived and/or reimbursed to a class during the same fiscal year if the class’ total annual fund operating expenses have fallen to a level below the expense limitation (“expense cap”) in effect at the time the fees were earned or the expenses incurred. In no case will LMPFA recapture any amount that would result, on any particular business day of the Fund, in the class’ total annual fund operating expenses exceeding the expense cap or any other lower limit then in effect.

Franklin Distributors, LLC (“Franklin Distributors”) serves as the Fund’s sole and exclusive distributor. Franklin Distributors is an indirect, wholly-owned broker-dealer subsidiary of Franklin Resources. Franklin Templeton Investor Services, LLC (“Investor Services”) serves as the Fund’s shareholder servicing agent and acts as the Fund’s transfer agent and dividend-paying agent. Investor Services is an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of Franklin Resources. For the year ended October 31, 2023, the Fund incurred transfer agent fees as reported on the Statement of Operations, of which $4,714 was earned by Investor Services.

There is a maximum initial sales charge of 5.50% for Class A shares. There is a contingent deferred sales charge (“CDSC”) of 1.00% on Class C shares, which applies if redemption occurs within 12 months from purchase payment. In certain cases, Class A shares have a 1.00% CDSC, which applies if redemption occurs within 18 months from purchase payment. This CDSC only applies to those purchases of Class A shares, which, when combined with current holdings of other shares of funds sold by Franklin Distributors, equal or exceed $1,000,000 in the aggregate. These purchases do not incur an initial sales charge.

9. Redemption facility

The Fund, together with other U.S. registered and foreign investment funds (collectively, the “Borrowers”) managed by Franklin Resources or its affiliates, is a borrower in a joint syndicated senior unsecured credit facility totaling $2.675 billion (the “Global Credit Facility”). The Global Credit Facility provides a source of funds to the Borrowers for temporary and emergency purposes, including the ability to meet future unanticipated or unusually large redemption requests. Unless renewed, the Global Credit Facility will terminate on February 2, 2024.

Under the terms of the Global Credit Facility, the Fund shall, in addition to interest charged on any borrowings made by the Fund and other costs incurred by the Fund, pay its share of fees and expenses incurred in connection with the implementation and maintenance of the Global Credit Facility, based upon its relative share of the aggregate net assets of all the Borrowers, including an annual commitment fee of 0.15% based upon the unused portion of the Global Credit Facility. These fees are reflected in the Statement of Operations. The Fund did not utilize the Global Credit Facility during the year ended October 31, 2023.

10. Income tax information and distributions to shareholders

The tax character of distributions paid during the fiscal years ended October 31, was as follows:

	2023		2022
Distributions paid from:
Ordinary income	$	9,532,526	$	8,216,215
Tax return of capital		2,399,717		4,852,720
Total distributions paid	$	11,932,243	$	13,068,935

As of October 31, 2023, the components of distributable earnings (loss) on a tax basis were as follows:

Deferred capital losses*	$	(54,970,679)
Other book/tax temporary differences(a)		(17,324,250)
Unrealized appreciation (depreciation)(b)		93,882,677
Total distributable earnings (loss) — net	$	21,587,748

* These capital losses have been deferred in the current year as either short-term or long-term losses. The losses will be deemed to occur on the first day of the next taxable year in the same character as they were originally deferred and will be available to offset future taxable capital gains.

^(a)  Other book/tax temporary differences are attributable to book/tax differences in the treatment of certain passive activity losses from partnership investments and book/tax differences in the timing of the deductibility of various expenses.

^(b)  The difference between book-basis and tax-basis unrealized appreciation (depreciation) is attributable to the tax deferral of losses on wash sales and the difference between the book and tax cost basis in partnership investments.

11. Recent accounting pronouncement

In June 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2022-03, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820) – Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions. The amendments in the ASU clarify that a contractual restriction on the sale of an equity security is not considered part of the unit of account of the equity security and, therefore, should not be considered in measuring fair value. The ASU is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2023, with the option of early adoption. Management has reviewed the requirements and believes that the adoption of the ASU will not have a material impact on the financial statements.

ClearBridge Tactical Dividend Income Fund 2023 Annual Report   39

Board approval of management and subadvisory agreements (unaudited)

At an in-person meeting of the Board of Trustees of Legg Mason Partners Investment Trust (the “Trust”) held on May 3-4, 2023, the Board, including the Trustees who are not considered to be “interested persons” of the Trust (the “Independent Trustees”) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), approved for an annual period the continuation of the management agreement (the “Management Agreement”) between the Trust and Legg Mason Partners Fund Advisor, LLC (the “Manager”) with respect to ClearBridge Tactical Dividend Income Fund, a series of the Trust (the “Fund”), and the sub-advisory agreement pursuant to which ClearBridge Investments, LLC (“ClearBridge”) provides day-to-day management of the Fund’s portfolio, and the sub-advisory agreement pursuant to which Western Asset Management Company, LLC (“Western Asset” and, together with ClearBridge, the “Sub-Advisers”) provides day-to-day management of the Fund’s cash and short-term instruments allocated to it by the Manager. The management agreement and sub-advisory agreements are collectively referred to as the “Agreements.”

Background

The Board received extensive information in advance of the meeting to assist it in its consideration of the Agreements and asked questions and requested additional information from management. Throughout the year the Board (including its various committees) had met with representatives of the Manager and the Subadvisers, and had received information relevant to the renewal of the Agreements. Prior to the meeting the Independent Trustees met with their independent legal counsel to discuss and consider the information provided and submitted questions to management, and they considered the responses provided. The Board received and considered a variety of information about the Manager and the Subadvisers, as well as the management, advisory and sub-advisory arrangements for the Fund and other funds overseen by the Board, certain portions of which are discussed below. The information received and considered by the Board both in conjunction with the May 2023 meeting and throughout the year was both written and oral. The contractual arrangements discussed below are the product of multiple years of review and negotiation and information received and considered by the Board during those years.

The information provided and presentations made to the Board encompassed the Fund and all funds for which the Board has responsibility. The discussion below covers both the advisory and the administrative functions being rendered by the Manager, both of which functions are encompassed by the Management Agreement, as well as the advisory functions rendered by the Subadvisers pursuant to the Sub-Advisory Agreements.

Board approval of management agreement and sub-advisory agreements

The Independent Trustees were advised by separate independent legal counsel throughout the process. Prior to voting, the Independent Trustees received a memorandum from their independent legal counsel discussing the legal standards for their consideration of the proposed continuation of the Agreements. The Independent Trustees also reviewed the

  40 ClearBridge Tactical Dividend Income Fund

proposed continuation of the Management Agreement and the Sub-Advisory Agreements in private sessions with their independent legal counsel at which no representatives of the Manager and Subadvisers were present. The Independent Trustees considered the Management Agreement and each Sub-Advisory Agreement separately in the course of their review. In doing so, they noted the respective roles of the Manager and the Subadvisers in providing services to the Fund.

In approving the Agreements, the Board, including the Independent Trustees, considered a variety of factors, including those factors discussed below. No single factor reviewed by the Board was identified by the Board as the principal factor in determining whether to approve the Management Agreement and the Sub-Advisory Agreements. Each Trustee may have attributed different weight to the various factors in evaluating the Management Agreement and each Sub-Advisory Agreement.

After considering all relevant factors and information, the Board, exercising its business judgment, determined that the continuation of the Agreements was in the best interests of the Fund and its shareholders and approved the continuation of each such agreement for another year.

Nature, extent and quality of the services under the management agreement and sub-advisory agreements

The Board received and considered information regarding the nature, extent and quality of services provided to the Fund by the Manager and the Subadvisers under the Management Agreement and the Sub-Advisory Agreements, respectively, during the past year. The Board noted information received at regular meetings throughout the year related to the services rendered by the Manager in its management of the Fund’s affairs and the Manager’s role in coordinating the activities of the Fund’s other service providers. The Board’s evaluation of the services provided by the Manager and the Subadvisers took into account the Board’s knowledge gained as Trustees of funds in the fund complex overseen by the Trustees, including knowledge gained regarding the scope and quality of the investment management and other capabilities of the Manager and the Subadvisers, and the quality of the Manager’s administrative and other services. The Board observed that the scope of services provided by the Manager and the Subadvisers, and of the undertakings required of the Manager and Subadvisers in connection with those services, including maintaining and monitoring their own and the Fund’s compliance programs, liquidity management programs, derivatives risk management programs, cybersecurity programs and valuation-related policies, had expanded over time as a result of regulatory, market and other developments. The Board also noted that on a regular basis it received and reviewed information from the Manager regarding the Fund’s compliance policies and procedures established pursuant to Rule 38a-1 under the 1940 Act. The Board also considered the risks associated with the Fund borne by the Manager and its affiliates (such as entrepreneurial, operational, reputational, litigation and regulatory risk), as well as the Manager’s and each Subadviser’s risk management processes.

ClearBridge Tactical Dividend Income Fund   41

Board approval of management and subadvisory agreements (unaudited) (cont’d)

The Board reviewed the qualifications, backgrounds and responsibilities of the Manager’s and each Subadviser’s senior personnel and the team of investment professionals primarily responsible for the day-to-day portfolio management of the Fund. The Board also considered, based on its knowledge of the Manager and the Manager’s affiliates, the financial resources of Franklin Resources, Inc., the parent organization of the Manager and the Subadvisers. The Board recognized the importance of having a fund manager with significant resources.

The Board considered the division of responsibilities among the Manager and the Subadvisers and the oversight provided by the Manager. The Board also considered the policies and practices of the Manager and the Subadvisers regarding the selection of brokers and dealers and the execution of portfolio transactions. The Board considered management’s periodic reports to the Board on, among other things, its business plans, any organizational changes and portfolio manager compensation.

The Board received and considered performance information for the Fund as well as for a group of funds (the “Performance Universe”) selected by Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. (“Broadridge”), an independent provider of investment company data, based on classifications provided by Thomson Reuters Lipper (“Lipper”). The Board was provided with a description of the methodology used to determine the similarity of the Fund with the funds included in the Performance Universe. It was noted that while the Board found the Broadridge data generally useful, they recognized its limitations, including that the data may vary depending on the end date selected and that the results of the performance comparisons may vary depending on the selection of the peer group and its composition over time. The Board also noted that it had received and discussed with management information throughout the year at periodic intervals comparing the Fund’s performance against its benchmark and against the Fund’s peers. The Board also considered the Fund’s performance in light of overall financial market conditions.

The information comparing the Fund’s performance to that of its Performance Universe, consisting of funds (including the Fund) classified as equity income funds by Lipper, showed, among other data, that the performance of the Fund’s Class I shares for the 1-, 3-, 5- and 10-year periods ended December 31, 2022 was below the median performance of the funds in the Performance Universe for each period. The Board noted the explanations from the Manager and ClearBridge concerning the reasons for the Fund’s relative performance versus the peer group for the various periods. The Board also noted that the Fund’s performance was ahead of its benchmark for the quarter ended March 31, 2023.

  42 ClearBridge Tactical Dividend Income Fund

The Board concluded that, overall, the nature, extent and quality of services provided (and expected to be provided), including performance, under the Management Agreement and each Sub-Advisory Agreement were sufficient for renewal.

Management fees and expense ratios

The Board reviewed and considered the contractual management fee payable by the Fund to the Manager (the “Contractual Management Fee”) and the actual management fees paid by the Fund to the Manager after giving effect to breakpoints and waivers, if any (the “Actual Management Fee”), in light of the nature, extent and quality of the management and sub-advisory services provided by the Manager and the Subadvisers, respectively. The Board also considered that fee waiver and/or expense reimbursement arrangements are currently in place for the Fund. The Board also noted that the compensation paid to the Subadvisers is the responsibility and expense of the Manager, not the Fund.

The Board received and considered information provided by Broadridge comparing the Contractual Management Fee and the Actual Management Fee and the Fund’s total actual expenses with those of funds in both the relevant expense group and a broader group of funds, each selected by Broadridge based on classifications provided by Lipper. It was noted that while the Board found the Broadridge data generally useful, they recognized its limitations, including that the data may vary depending on the selection of the peer group. The Board also reviewed information regarding fees charged by the Manager and/or the Subadvisers to other U.S. clients investing primarily in an asset class similar to that of the Fund, noting that there were none.

The Manager reviewed with the Board the differences in services provided to these different types of accounts, noting that the Fund is provided with certain administrative services, office facilities, and Fund officers (including the Fund’s chief executive, chief financial and chief compliance officers), and that the Manager coordinates and oversees the provision of services to the Fund by other Fund service providers. The Board considered the fee comparisons in light of the differences in management of these different types of accounts, and the differences in the degree of entrepreneurial and other risks borne by the Manager in managing the Fund and in managing other types of accounts.

The Board considered the overall management fee, the fees of each of the Subadvisers and the amount of the management fee retained by the Manager after payment of the subadvisory fees, in each case in light of the services rendered for those amounts. The Board also received an analysis of complex-wide management fees provided by the Manager, which, among other things, set out a framework of fees based on asset classes.

ClearBridge Tactical Dividend Income Fund   43

Board approval of management and subadvisory agreements (unaudited) (cont’d)

The Board also received and considered information comparing the Fund’s Contractual Management Fee and Actual Management Fee as well as its actual total expense ratio with those of a group of funds consisting of 18 equity income funds (including the Fund) selected by Broadridge to be comparable to the Fund (the “Expense Group”), and a broader group of funds selected by Broadridge consisting of equity income funds (including the Fund) (the “Expense Universe”). This information showed that the Fund’s Contractual Management Fee was below the median of management fees payable by the funds in the Expense Group and that the Fund’s Actual Management Fee was above the median of management fees paid by the funds in the Expense Group and above the median of management fees paid by the funds in the Expense Universe. This information also showed that the Fund’s actual total expense ratio was approximately equivalent to the median of the total expense ratios of the funds in the Expense Group and above the median of the actual total expense ratios of the funds in the Expense Universe. The Board took into account management’s discussion of the Fund’s expenses. The Board also considered that the current limitation on the Fund’s expenses is expected to continue until and expire on December 31, 2024.

Taking all of the above into consideration, as well as the factors identified below, the Board determined that the management fee and the subadvisory fees for the Fund were reasonable in light of the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the Fund under the Management Agreement and the Sub-Advisory Agreements.

Manager profitability

The Board received and considered an analysis of the profitability of the Manager and its affiliates in providing services to the Fund. The Board also received profitability information with respect to the Legg Mason Funds complex as a whole. The Board received information with respect to the Manager’s allocation methodologies used in preparing this profitability data. It was noted that the allocation methodologies had previously been reviewed by an outside consultant. The profitability of the Manager and its affiliates was considered by the Board not excessive in light of the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the Fund.

Economies of scale

The Board received and discussed information concerning whether the Manager realizes economies of scale with respect to the management of the Fund as the Fund’s assets grow. The Board noted that the Manager had previously agreed to institute breakpoints in the Fund’s Contractual Management Fee, reflecting the potential for reducing the blended rate of the Contractual Management Fee as the Fund grows. The Board considered whether the breakpoint fee structure was a reasonable means of sharing with Fund investors any economies of scale or other efficiencies that might accrue from increases in the Fund’s asset levels. The Board noted that the Fund had not reached the specified asset level at which a breakpoint to its Contractual Management Fee would be triggered. The Board also noted the size of the Fund.

  44 ClearBridge Tactical Dividend Income Fund

The Board determined that the management fee structure for the Fund, including breakpoints, was reasonable.

Other benefits to the manager and the subadvisers

The Board considered other benefits received by the Manager, the Subadvisers and their affiliates as a result of their relationship with the Fund, including the opportunity to offer additional products and services to Fund shareholders, including the appointment of an affiliate of the Manager as the transfer agent of the Fund.

In light of the costs of providing investment management and other services to the Fund and the ongoing commitment of the Manager and the Subadvisers to the Fund, the Board considered that the ancillary benefits that the Manager, the Subadvisers and their affiliates received were reasonable.

ClearBridge Tactical Dividend Income Fund   45

Statement regarding liquidity risk management program (unaudited)

Each of the Franklin Templeton and Legg Mason Funds has adopted and implemented a written Liquidity Risk Management Program (the “LRMP”) as required by Rule 22e-4 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “Liquidity Rule”). The LRMP is designed to assess and manage each Fund’s liquidity risk, which is defined as the risk that the Fund could not meet requests to redeem shares issued by the Fund without significant dilution of remaining investors’ interests in the Fund. In accordance with the Liquidity Rule, the LRMP includes policies and procedures that provide for: (1) assessment, management, and review (no less frequently than annually) of each Fund’s liquidity risk; (2) classification of each Fund’s portfolio holdings into one of four liquidity categories (Highly Liquid, Moderately Liquid, Less Liquid, and Illiquid); (3) for Funds that do not primarily hold assets that are Highly Liquid, establishing and maintaining a minimum percentage of the Fund’s net assets in Highly Liquid investments (called a “Highly Liquid Investment Minimum” or “HLIM”); and (4) prohibiting the Fund’s acquisition of Illiquid investments that would result in the Fund holding more than 15% of its net assets in Illiquid assets. The LRMP also requires reporting to the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) (on a non-public basis) and to the Board if the Fund’s holdings of Illiquid assets exceed 15% of the Fund’s net assets. Funds with HLIMs must have procedures for addressing HLIM shortfalls, including reporting to the Board and, with respect to HLIM shortfalls lasting more than seven consecutive calendar days, reporting to the SEC (on a non-public basis).

The Director of Liquidity Risk within the Investment Risk Management Group (the “IRMG”) is the appointed Administrator of the LRMP. The IRMG maintains the Investment Liquidity Committee (the “ILC”) to provide oversight and administration of policies and procedures governing liquidity risk management for Franklin Templeton and Legg Mason products and portfolios. The ILC includes representatives from Franklin Templeton’s Risk, Trading, Global Compliance, Legal, Investment Compliance, Investment Operations, Valuation Committee, Product Management and Global Product Strategy.

In assessing and managing each Fund’s liquidity risk, the ILC considers, as relevant, a variety of factors, including the Fund’s investment strategy and the liquidity of its portfolio investments during both normal and reasonably foreseeable stressed conditions; its short and long-term cash flow projections; and its cash holdings and access to other funding sources including the Funds’ interfund lending facility and line of credit. Classification of the Fund’s portfolio holdings in the four liquidity categories is based on the number of days it is reasonably expected to take to convert the investment to cash (for Highly Liquid and Moderately Liquid holdings) or sell or dispose of the investment (for Less Liquid and Illiquid investments), in current market conditions without significantly changing the investment’s market value.

  46 ClearBridge Tactical Dividend Income Fund

Each Fund primarily holds liquid assets that are defined under the Liquidity Rule as “Highly Liquid Investments,” and therefore is not required to establish an HLIM. Highly Liquid Investments are defined as cash and any investment reasonably expected to be convertible to cash in current market conditions in three business days or less without the conversion to cash significantly changing the market value of the investment.

At meetings of the Funds’ Board of Trustees held in May 2023, the Program Administrator provided a written report to the Board addressing the adequacy and effectiveness of the program for the year ended December 31, 2022. The Program Administrator report concluded that (i.) the LRMP, as adopted and implemented, remains reasonably designed to assess and manage each Fund’s liquidity risk; (ii.) the LRMP, including the Highly Liquid Investment Minimum (“HLIM”) where applicable, was implemented and operated effectively to achieve the goal of assessing and managing each Fund’s liquidity risk; and (iii.) each Fund was able to meet requests for redemption without significant dilution of remaining investors’ interests in the Fund.

a) Audit Fees. The aggregate fees billed in the last two fiscal years ending October 31, 2022 and October 31, 2023 (the “Reporting Periods”) for professional services rendered by the Registrant’s principal accountant (the “Auditor”) for the audit of the Registrant’s annual financial statements, or services that are normally provided by the Auditor in connection with the statutory and regulatory filings or engagements for the Reporting Periods, were $325,110 in October 31, 2022 and $325,110 in October 31, 2023.

All Other Fees. There were no other non-audit services rendered by the Auditor to Legg Mason Partners Fund Advisors, LLC (“LMPFA”), and any entity controlling, controlled by or under common control with LMPFA that provided ongoing services to Legg Mason Partners Investment Trust requiring pre-approval by the Audit Committee in the Reporting Period.

(e) Audit Committee’s pre–approval policies and procedures described in paragraph (c) (7) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X.

(1) The Charter for the Audit Committee (the “Committee”) of the Board of each registered investment company (the “Fund”) advised by LMPFA or one of their affiliates (each, an “Adviser”) requires that the Committee shall approve (a) all audit and permissible non-audit services to be provided to the Fund and (b) all permissible non-audit services to be provided by

the Fund’s independent auditors to the Adviser and any Covered Service Providers if the engagement relates directly to the operations and financial reporting of the Fund. The Committee may implement policies and procedures by which such services are approved other than by the full Committee.

The Committee shall not approve non-audit services that the Committee believes may impair the independence of the auditors. As of the date of the approval of this Audit Committee Charter, permissible non-audit services include any professional services (including tax services), that are not prohibited services as described below, provided to the Fund by the independent auditors, other than those provided to the Fund in connection with an audit or a review of the financial statements of the Fund. Permissible non-audit services may not include: (i) bookkeeping or other services related to the accounting records or financial statements of the Fund; (ii) financial information systems design and implementation; (iii) appraisal or valuation services, fairness opinions or contribution-in-kind reports; (iv) actuarial services; (v) internal audit outsourcing services; (vi) management functions or human resources; (vii) broker or dealer, investment adviser or investment banking services; (viii) legal services and expert services unrelated to the audit; and (ix) any other service the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board determines, by regulation, is impermissible.

Pre-approval by the Committee of any permissible non-audit services is not required so long as: (i) the aggregate amount of all such permissible non-audit services provided to the Fund, the Adviser and any service providers controlling, controlled by or under common control with the Adviser that provide ongoing services to the Fund (“Covered Service Providers”) constitutes not more than 5% of the total amount of revenues paid to the independent auditors during the fiscal year in which the permissible non-audit services are provided to (a) the Fund, (b) the Adviser and (c) any entity controlling, controlled by or under common control with the Adviser that provides ongoing services to the Fund during the fiscal year in which the services are provided that would have to be approved by the Committee; (ii) the permissible non-audit services were not recognized by the Fund at the time of the engagement to be non-audit services; and (iii) such services are promptly brought to the attention of the Committee and approved by the Committee (or its delegate(s)) prior to the completion of the audit.

(2) None of the services described in paragraphs (b) through (d) of this Item were performed in reliance on paragraph (c)(7)(i)(C) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X.

(f) Not applicable.

(g) Non-audit fees billed by the Auditor for services rendered to Legg Mason Partners Investment Trust, LMPFA and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with LMPFA that provides ongoing services to Legg Mason Partners Investment Trust during the reporting period were $785,604 in October 31, 2022 and $799,106 in October 31, 2023.

(h) Yes. Legg Mason Partners Investment Trust’s Audit Committee has considered whether the provision of non-audit services that were rendered to Service Affiliates, which were not pre-approved (not requiring pre-approval), is compatible with maintaining the Accountant’s independence. All services provided by the Auditor to the Legg Mason Partners Investment Trust or to Service Affiliates, which were required to be pre-approved, were pre-approved as required.

(i) Not applicable.

(j) Not applicable.
