28 September 2007



For immediate release                                 28 September 2007



                              WALKER GREENBANK PLC
                     ('Walker Greenbank' or 'the Company')

                              Restatement under IFRS

Walker Greenbank PLC (AIM: WGB), the designer, manufacturer and distributor of 
furnishing fabrics and wallpapers whose international business includes the
brands  Sanderson, Morris & Co, Harlequin and Zoffany, has previously prepared
consolidated  financial statements in accordance with UK Generally Accepted
Accounting Principles  (UK GAAP). From 1 February 2007 the Group is required to
prepare its consolidated  financial statements in accordance with International
Accounting Standards and  International Financial Reporting Standards
(collectively 'IFRS') as adopted by the  European Union.

The Group's first accounting period under IFRS will be for the financial year
ended  31 January 2008, and its first interim results will be for the six months
ended 31  July 2007. The Group's date of transition to IFRS has been determined,
in accordance  with IFRS 1, First Time Adoption of International Financial
Reporting Statements, as 1  February 2006.

The adoption of IFRS represents an accounting policy change only and has no
impact  on the Group's business strategy, nor on the cash flows generated by the
business  and it does not change the underlying drivers of value of Walker
Greenbank's  business model.

The effect of the adoption of IFRS on the financial assets of the Group is
minimal  as can be seen from the table below:
