At today's Annual General Meeting of Topps Tiles Plc, Barry Bester, co-founder

'At the full year results announced on 28 November 2006, we reported that for
the first 7 weeks of trading in the new financial period total revenues
increased 10.3 % and like for like revenues were up 3.3%. I am pleased to report
that, despite a persistently tough retail market trading in the first 14 weeks
of our new financial period has continued to improve with overall revenue up by
12.6% (2006: up 0.7%) and like-for-like revenue up 4.7% (2006: down 5.0%).

The UK showed overall revenue growth of 11.8% (2006: up 0.1%) with like-for-like
revenue up 4.3% (2006: down 5.5%).

Holland showed overall revenue growth of 41.5% (2006: up 19.1%) with
like-for-like revenue up 19.6% (2006: up 8.3%)

Our controlled UK store roll out programme continues and we have a stated target
of a net 30 new stores in this financial period. So far we have opened 7 stores
in the period and have a strong pipeline of sites currently in development.

In Holland we are now trading from 17 stores with 2 new stores opened in this
financial period. We have a target of 5 new stores in this financial period.

Topps has consolidated its market leading position and with the UK tile market
forecast to increase in volume by over 15% by 2011, we remain confident that our
proven business model and focused management team, with the shared objective of
driving the business forward, will continue to deliver sustainable growth for
our shareholders'.
