  II ClearBridge Large Cap Growth Fund

Fund overview

Q. What is the Fund’s investment strategy?

A. The Fund seeks long-term capital growth. Under normal circumstances, the Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets, plus borrowings for investment purposes, if any, in equity securities or other instruments with similar economic characteristics of U.S. companies with large market capitalizations. We emphasize individual security selection while diversifying the Fund’s investments across industries, which may help to reduce risk. We attempt to identify established large capitalization companies with the highest growth potential. We then analyze each company in detail, ranking its management, strategy and competitive market position. Finally, we attempt to identify the best values available among the growth companies identified. The core holdings of the Fund will be large capitalization companies that we believe to be dominant in their industries, global in scope and with long-term history of performance. The Fund may invest up to 20% of its net assets (at the time of investment) in foreign securities.

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

A. Equity markets took a defensive shift during the twelve-month reporting period ended November 30, 2022, resulting in a 9.21% decline for the S&P 500 Indexi. The benchmark Russell 1000 Growth Indexii declined 21.64% for the period, trailing the 2.42% gain for the Russell 1000 Value Indexiii. Within the benchmark, rising interest rates created headwinds for stocks in the communication services (-42.38%), consumer discretionary (-34.57%) and information technology (“IT”) (-22.28%) sectors investing to generate profits far into the future. Energy (+65.65%), which has a minimal weighting in the Russell 1000 Growth Index, was the clear winner amid elevated oil and gas prices and an ongoing energy crisis in Europe, while more defensive areas also outperformed the benchmark, including consumer staples (+9.29%) and health care (-4.04%), as did industrials (-1.58%).

In late 2021, rising inflation prompted the Federal Reserve Board (the “Fed”) to take on a more hawkish stance, accelerating the tapering of asset purchases and increasing rate hike projections. This drove equities, in particular higher-growth companies, to sell-off entering 2022.

Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in February further disrupted global supply chains and reduced global commodity reserves due to the sanctions levied on Russia, the world’s eleventh largest economy. The conflict increased the probability of a recession in Europe, which investors feared could spread to other developed economies. Oil and gas prices spiked, lifting the energy sector and driving further inflation. The yield for the ten-year Treasury note jumped from 1.63% to 2.33% in the first quarter of 2022.

The second quarter brought more of the same, with persistent inflation prompting central banks to take more hawkish stances. The Fed raised the federal funds rate by 50 basis points in May and 75 basis points in June. These hikes jarred financial markets, significantly compressing equity multiples. Defensive sectors led the market, along with the energy sector, while mega cap growth stocks sold-off. Concerns over companies’ ability to

ClearBridge Large Cap Growth Fund 2022 Annual Report   1

Fund overview (cont’d)

maintain current margins increased, as did the probability of a “hard landing” for the economy. The yield for the ten-year Treasury note rose to 3.01%.

A bear market rally followed in July, with investors bidding up growth stocks in particular in the hopes a policy-engineered recession would spur a reversal in Fed policy. Such hopes were disappointed in August when candid statements by Fed Chair Powell signaled the Fed’s intent to continue raising rates beyond previous targets, regardless of the economic consequences. Higher bond yields — the yield for the ten-year Treasury note rose to 3.83% in the third quarter of 2022 — helped strengthen the U.S. dollar, reducing overseas revenues for multinational companies.

Emerging evidence of a slowing economy, which might prompt an early Fed pivot from its tightening regime, along with some better-than-expected earnings, helped equities to close out the period. After edging up above 4%, the yield for the ten-year Treasury note ended the period at 3.60%, up over 200 basis points for the reporting period, as the Fed signaled a higher-for-longer future for interest rates and a recession became the base case for 2023.

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

A. The last twelve months have been particularly challenging for us as active managers as focusing on diversification across different types of growth companies, favoring quality businesses and taking a defensive posture in positioning the portfolio have not generated alpha. Traditionally defensive businesses, like eye care products maker Alcon, for example, have not behaved that way through the current bear market despite maintaining solid fundamentals and execution. We don’t take solace in the fact that we are not alone, as our mega-cap-heavy index continues to outperform most active strategies. We attribute this to the unique behavior of some of the largest constituents in the Russell 1000 Growth Index that have outperformed in up periods and exhibited resilience during drawdowns.

Instead, the best approach we can take at this point is to stick with our process of fundamental, bottom-up research and stock selection with an eye on how each buy, sell, add or trim impacts the portfolio’s overall risk/reward. Through the two and half years since COVID-19 struck, we have prudently transitioned the portfolio into companies that possess what we view as the most attractive growth profiles over the next three to five years. As a result, our active share has steadily risen, highlighted by meaningful overweights to health care, industrials, software and services within IT and underweights in consumer discretionary, semiconductors and hardware within IT.

Another key tenet of our approach is an emphasis on risk management. This emphasis has guided our positioning changes through the drawdown that has characterized most of the year. We started becoming more countercyclical in establishing an overweight to health care stocks tied to procedures in the last several quarters, with two of nine new positions for the year in the sector being medical device makers DexCom and Stryker. We also initiated positions in defensively oriented growth franchises in consumer staples (Estee Lauder) and financials (Marsh & McLennan).

  2 ClearBridge Large Cap Growth Fund 2022 Annual Report

We complemented this activity by paring back positions in consumer discretionary and more economically exposed areas of IT and communication services, with nine of our twelve sells coming in these areas. As long-term investors, we have approached these moves in a thoughtful way, reducing positions when short-term headwinds cause us to re-examine our investment thesis and only exiting names when we believe with certainty that the reason for owning them no longer applies.

We see three ways to generate returns through the bear market. The first is by owning stocks delivering high-quality organic growth via a combination of high-single-digit revenue growth, the use of free cash flow to drive buybacks and pulling levers to support earnings growth. We see a number of these opportunities in health care. The second strategy is to purchase stocks after they have derated and established a lower base for future earnings. These include companies like Netflix and PayPal where final demand is normalizing after a pull-forward during the pandemic. The third strategy is buying growth companies with idiosyncratic or stock-specific catalysts unrelated to the direction of the market like Sherwin-Williams and Intel. Both stocks are examples of companies we categorize in our cyclical bucket that should experience a step change in earnings over the medium- to long-term with solid execution and their ability to pass through price increases.

ClearBridge Large Cap Growth Fund 2022 Annual Report   3

Fund overview (cont’d)

All share class returns assume the reinvestment of all distributions 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.

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 31, 2022, the gross total annual fund operating expense ratios for Class A, Class C, Class R, Class I, Class IS and Class O shares were 0.99%, 1.71%, 1.31%, 0.71%, 0.61% and 0.66%, 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.

Q. What were the leading contributors to performance?

A. On an absolute basis, the Fund had positive returns in three of the nine economic sectors in which it was invested (among eleven sectors in total) during the reporting period. The greatest contributions to absolute returns came from the consumer staples sector.

Relative to the benchmark, overall sector allocation contributed to performance. In particular, overweights to the health care and industrials sectors, an underweight to communication services and stock selection in the industrials and consumer staples sectors were the primary contributors to performance.

In terms of individual Fund holdings, leading contributors to performance for the period included UnitedHealth Group in the health care sector, W.W. Grainger and Raytheon Technologies in the industrials sector, Monster Beverage in the consumer staples sector and Visa in the IT sector.

Q. What were the leading detractors from performance?

A. On an absolute basis, the Fund had negative returns in six of the nine economic sectors in which it was invested (among eleven sectors in total) during the period. The greatest detractors from absolute returns came in the IT and communication services sectors.

Relative to the benchmark, overall stock selection had a negative impact on performance. In particular, stock selection in the IT and communication services sectors were the primary detractors from results. An underweight to consumer staples and stock selection in health care also hurt performance for the period.

In terms of individual Fund holdings, the leading detractors for the period were Amazon.com in the consumer discretionary sector, Meta Platforms in the communication services sector as well as NVIDIA, Atlassian and salesforce.com in the IT sector.

A. Significant changes to the Fund’s portfolio during the period included the initiation of new positions in DexCom and Stryker in the health care sector, PayPal in the IT sector, Sherwin-Williams in the materials sector and Estee Lauder in the consumer staples sector. During the reporting period, we also closed a number of the Fund’s existing positions, the largest being Home Depot and Ulta Beauty in the consumer discretionary sector, QUALCOMM and NXP Semiconductors in the IT sector and Walt Disney in the communication services sector.

RISKS: Common stocks are subject to market and price fluctuations. Large capitalization companies may fall out of favor with investors based on market and economic conditions. Growth stocks as a group may fall out of favor and underperform the overall equity market while the market concentrates on value stocks. Although the Fund will not concentrate its investments in any one industry or industry group, it may weight its investments toward certain industries, thus increasing its exposure to factors adversely affecting issuers within those industries. Diversification does not assure against market loss. 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 June 1, 2022 and held for the six months ended November 30, 2022.

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.

  24 ClearBridge Large Cap Growth Fund 2022 Annual Report

Notes to financial statements

1. Organization and significant accounting policies

ClearBridge Large Cap Growth 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 Standard 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.

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

ClearBridge Large Cap Growth Fund 2022 Annual Report   25

Notes to financial statements (cont’d)

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.

  26 ClearBridge Large Cap Growth Fund 2022 Annual Report

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
Common Stocks†	$	9,611,806,703		—		—	$	9,611,806,703
Short-Term Investments†		28,623,029		—		—		28,623,029
Total Investments	$	9,640,429,732		—		—	$	9,640,429,732

† See Schedule of Investments for additional detailed categorizations.

(b) 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

ClearBridge Large Cap Growth Fund 2022 Annual Report   27

Notes to financial statements (cont’d)

the values of assets and liabilities, other than investments in securities, on the date of valuation, resulting from changes in exchange rates.

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.

(c) 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.

(d) 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), adjusted for amortization of premium and accretion of discount, is recorded on the accrual basis. 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.

(e) REIT distributions. The character of distributions received from Real Estate Investment Trusts (‘‘REITs’’) held by the Fund is generally comprised of net investment income, capital gains, and return of capital. It is the policy of the Fund to estimate the character of distributions received from underlying REITs based on historical data provided by the REITs. After each calendar year end, REITs report the actual tax character of these distributions. Differences between the estimated and actual amounts reported by the REITs are reflected in the Fund’s records in the year in which they are reported by the REITs by adjusting related investment cost basis, capital gains and income, as necessary.

(f) Distributions to shareholders. Distributions from net investment income and distributions of net realized gains, if any, are declared at least annually. Distributions to shareholders of the Fund are recorded on the ex-dividend date and are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP.

  28 ClearBridge Large Cap Growth Fund 2022 Annual Report

(g) 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.

(h) 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.

(i) 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.

Management has analyzed the Fund’s tax positions taken on income tax returns for all open tax years and has concluded that as of November 30, 2022, 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.

(j) 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)	$    (231,873,441)	$    231,873,441

^(a)  Reclassifications are due to a tax net operating loss and distributions paid in connection with the redemption of Fund shares.

2. Investment management agreement and other transactions with affiliates

Legg Mason Partners Fund Advisor, LLC (“LMPFA”) 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”).

ClearBridge Large Cap Growth Fund 2022 Annual Report   29

Notes to financial statements (cont’d)

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		0.700	%
Next $1 billion		0.680
Next $3 billion		0.650
Next $5 billion		0.600
Over $10 billion		0.550

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 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 R, Class I, Class IS and Class O shares did not exceed 1.10%, 1.90%, 1.40%, 0.80%, 0.70% and 0.74%, 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, 2024 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 November 30, 2022, fees waived and/or expenses reimbursed amounted to $27,946, which included an affiliated money market fund waiver of $27,915.

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 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. Franklin Distributors, LLC (“Franklin Distributors”) serves as the Fund’s sole and exclusive

  30 ClearBridge Large Cap Growth Fund 2022 Annual Report

There is a maximum initial sales charge of 5.50% (5.75% prior to August 15, 2022) 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.

For the year ended November 30, 2022, sales charges retained by and CDSCs paid to Franklin Distributors and its affiliates, if any, were as follows:

	Class A		Class C

9. Redemption facility

On February 4, 2022, the Fund, together with other U.S. registered and foreign investment funds (collectively, the “Borrowers”) managed by Franklin Resources or its affiliates, became 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

  34 ClearBridge Large Cap Growth Fund 2022 Annual Report

future unanticipated or unusually large redemption requests. Unless renewed, the Global Credit Facility will terminate on February 3, 2023.

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 November 30, 2022.

10. Redemptions in-kind

The Fund may make payment for Fund shares redeemed wholly or in part by distributing portfolio securities to shareholders. For the year ended November 30, 2022, the Fund had no redemptions in-kind. For the year ended November 30, 2021, the Fund had redemptions in-kind with total proceeds in the amount of $302,451,715. The net realized gain on these redemptions in-kind amounted to $194,041,203, which was not realized for tax purposes.

11. Income tax information and distributions to shareholders

The tax character of distributions paid during the fiscal years ended November 30, was as follows:

	2022		2021
Distributions paid from:
Ordinary income	$	115,986,855	$	106,879,272
Net long-term capital gains		1,803,876,454		912,131,906
Total distributions paid	$	1,919,863,309	$	1,019,011,178

As of November 30, 2022, the components of distributable earnings (loss) on a tax basis were as follows:

Undistributed long-term capital gains — net	$         869,187,574
Other book/tax temporary differences(a)		(9,713)
Unrealized appreciation (depreciation)(b)		3,343,573,446
Total distributable earnings (loss) — net		$    4,212,751,307

^(a)  Other book/tax temporary differences are attributable to 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.

12. Recent accounting pronouncements

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,

ClearBridge Large Cap Growth Fund 2022 Annual Report   35

Notes to financial statements (cont’d)

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 is currently evaluating the impact, if any, of applying this ASU.

***

In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) – Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. In January 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-01, with further amendments to Topic 848. The amendments in the ASUs provide optional temporary accounting recognition and financial reporting relief from the effect of certain types of contract modifications due to the planned discontinuation of the LIBOR and other interbank-offered based reference rates as of the end of 2021 and 2023. The ASUs are effective for certain reference rate-related contract modifications that occur during the period March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. Management has reviewed the requirements and believes the adoption of these ASUs will not have a material impact on the financial statements.

13. Other matters

The outbreak of the respiratory illness COVID-19 (commonly referred to as “coronavirus”) has continued to rapidly spread around the world, causing considerable uncertainty for the global economy and financial markets. The ultimate economic fallout from the pandemic, and the long-term impact on economies, markets, industries and individual issuers, are not known. The COVID-19 pandemic could adversely affect the value and liquidity of the Fund’s investments, impair the Fund’s ability to satisfy redemption requests, and negatively impact the Fund’s performance. In addition, the outbreak of COVID-19, and measures taken to mitigate its effects, could result in disruptions to the services provided to the Fund by its service providers.

***

On February 24, 2022, Russia engaged in military actions in the sovereign territory of Ukraine. The current political and financial uncertainty surrounding Russia and Ukraine may increase market volatility and the economic risk of investing in securities in these countries and may also cause uncertainty for the global economy and broader financial markets. The ultimate fallout and long-term impact from these events are not known. The Fund will continue to assess the impact on valuations and liquidity and will take any potential actions needed in accordance with procedures approved by the Board of Trustees.

Report of independent registered public accounting firm

To the Board of Trustees of Legg Mason Partners Investment Trust and Shareholders of ClearBridge Large Cap Growth Fund.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the schedule of investments, of ClearBridge Large Cap Growth Fund (one of the funds constituting Legg Mason Partners Investment Trust, referred to hereafter as the “Fund”) as of November 30, 2022, the related statement of operations for the year ended November 30, 2022, the statement of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period ended November 30, 2022, including the related notes, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period ended November 30, 2022 (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Fund as of November 30, 2022, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period ended November 30, 2022 and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period ended November 30, 2022 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Fund’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Fund’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Fund in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of November 30, 2022 by correspondence with the custodian and broker. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

The aggregate fees billed in the last two fiscal years ending November 30, 2021 and November 30, 2022 (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 $68,121 in November 30, 2021 and $68,121 in November 30, 2022.

There were no fees billed for tax services by the Auditors to service affiliates during the Reporting Periods that required pre-approval by the Audit Committee.

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 $1,558,348 in November 30, 2021 and $785,604 in November 30, 2022.

(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.
