Preliminary assessment of the impact of US Tax reform legislation

The Weir Group notes the recently enacted Tax Cuts and Jobs Act ("the Act"), which came into effect on 1 January 2018. While work is ongoing and we will provide more detailed information with the publication of our 2017 Annual Results, our preliminary impact assessment is noted here.

The measures included in the Act, subject to any further specific guidance on interpretation being released, are likely to give rise to an initial one-off non-cash tax credit in 2017 resulting from the revaluation of the Group's aggregate US Deferred Tax Assets and Deferred Tax Liabilities following the reduction in the US federal rate of corporate income tax.

Going forward, from 2018 the favourable impact of the headline federal rate reduction is likely to be largely offset by greater restriction on the level of interest deduction allowed in the US, leaving the overall impact of the Act on the Group's effective tax rate broadly neutral. Based on this preliminary assessment, the Group's effective tax rate for 2018 is likely to be around 25%.
