Business Pipeline Correction

Worthington Nicholls Group plc
04 July 2007

                         Worthington Nicholls Group Plc
                    ('Worthington Nicholls' or 'the Group')


It has come to light that the business pipeline figure published in Worthington
Nicholls' interim results announcement released on 29 June 2007 was materially
understated.

The current pipeline for the Group stands at £125.3 million and not the £61.3
million previously stated.

The number quoted originally reflected the position at the end of the interim
period and not at the date of the announcement as stated. It did not, therefore,
reflect the pipeline of business from the companies acquired since the period
end nor did it include contracts tendered in this period.
