Reconciliation of Income before Income Taxes and Total Provision for Income Taxes

Differences between the financial reporting and the corresponding tax basis of assets and liabilities and the different income tax rates and laws applicable to the Company, among other factors, give rise to permanent differences between the statutory tax rate applicable in the U.K. and the effective tax rate presented in the consolidated income statement, which in 2020, 2019 and 2018 were as follows:

						Years ended December 31,
			In millions			2020						2019						2018
			Income before income taxes			$	27.7					$	16.3					$	34.2
			Provision for income taxes at the U.K. statutory tax rate (2019: 19%, 2018:19%, 2017: 19.25%)			5.3						3.1						6.6
			Effect of:
			Non-deductible expenses			1.7						2.7						0.1
			Movement in valuation allowances			0.8						1.2						—
			Differences in income tax rates in countries where the Company operates(1)			(0.1)						1.1						0.5
			Effect of changes in tax rates (2)			0.1						(0.1)						0.2
			Movement in uncertain tax positions			(0.4)						0.4						0.1
			Other			(0.5)						(0.8)						(1.0)
			Total provision for income taxes			$	6.9					$	7.6					$	6.5
