2 Interim Results for the half year ended 30 June 2007 Basis of preparation of pro forma information

To assist investors in understanding the performance of the enlarged Taylor Wimpey plc Group, pro forma analyses have been prepared, in which the two underlying sets of financial and operational information for the six months to 30 June 2007 for plc (“TW”) and the 26 weeks to 1 July 2007 for Plc (“GW”), have been aggregated to illustrate the effect of the merger of TW and GW as if the transaction had taken place on 1 January 2007. The results from the two businesses have been prepared on the basis of the existing accounting policies in the two Groups. In aggregating the two sets of financial information, intra-Group trading and balances between the two entities have not been eliminated.

The excess of the fair value of shares issued to acquire the GW business over the net assets less book goodwill has been recognised as an provisional goodwill number. Full acquisition accounting will be performed during the second half of 2007 in which this provisional goodwill number will change due to accounting policy alignments, fair value adjustments on the GW net assets acquired and the recognition of other intangibles. The financial statements for Taylor Wimpey plc for the year ended 31 December 2007 will include the full impact of acquisition accounting.
