1. General information
The interim report was approved by the Board on 24th May 2016. The financial
information for the 26 weeks ended 2 April 2016 has been reviewed by the
company's auditor. Their report is included within this announcement. The
financial information for the 53 week period ended 3 October 2015 has been
based on information in the audited financial statements for that period.
The comparative figures for the 53 week period ended 3 October 2015 are an
abridged version of the Group's full financial statements and, together with
other financial information contained in these interim results, do not
constitute statutory financial statements of the Group as defined in section
434 of the Companies Act 2006. A copy of the statutory accounts for that 53
week period has been delivered to the Registrar of Companies. The auditor has
reported on those accounts: their report was unqualified, did not draw
attention to any matters by way of emphasis and did not contain a statement
under s498(2) or (3) of the Companies Act 2006.
This condensed set of consolidated financial statements has been prepared for
the 26 weeks ended 2 April 2016 and the comparative period has been prepared
for the 26 weeks ended 28 March 2015.
Basis of preparation and accounting policies
The annual financial statements of Topps Tiles Plc are prepared in accordance
with IFRSs as adopted by the European Union. The unaudited condensed
consolidated set of financial statements included in this half-yearly
financial report has been prepared in accordance with International Accounting
Standard 34 'Interim Financial Reporting', as adopted by the European Union.
The same accounting policies, presentation and methods of computation are
followed in the condensed set of financial statements as applied in the
Group's latest annual audited financial statements.
Going concern
Based on a detailed review of the risks and uncertainties contained within the
risks and uncertainties section above, the financial facilities available to
the Group, management's latest revised forecasts and a range of sensitised
scenarios the Board believe the Group will continue to meet all of its
financial commitments as they fall due and will be able to continue as a going
concern. The Board, therefore, consider it appropriate to prepare the
financial statements on a going concern basis.
2. Business segments
IFRS 8 requires operating segments to be identified on the basis of internal
reports about components of the Group that are regularly reviewed by the Chief
Executive to allocate resources to the segments and to assess their
performance. As there is one segment, being the operation of retail stores in
the UK, and the Chief Executive bases decisions on the performance of the
Group as a whole, separate operating segments have not been identified.

INDEPENDENT REVIEW REPORT TO TOPPS TILES PLC
We have been engaged by the company to review the condensed set of financial
statements in the half-yearly financial report for the 26 week period ended 2
April 2016 which comprises the Consolidated Statement of Financial
Performance, the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, the
Consolidated Statement of Changes in Equity, the Statement of Cash Flows and
related notes 1 to 11. We have read the other information contained in the
half-yearly financial report and considered whether it contains any apparent
misstatements or material inconsistencies with the information in the
condensed set of financial statements.
This report is made solely to the company in accordance with International
Standard on Review Engagements (UK and Ireland) 2410 "Review of Interim
Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity"
issued by the Auditing Practices Board. Our work has been undertaken so that
we might state to the company those matters we are required to state to it in
an independent review report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent
permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other
than the company, for our review work, for this report, or for the conclusions
we have formed.
Directors' responsibilities
The half-yearly financial report is the responsibility of, and has been
approved by, the directors. The directors are responsible for preparing the
half-yearly financial report in accordance with the Disclosure and
Transparency Rules of the United Kingdom's Financial Conduct Authority.
As disclosed in note 1, the annual financial statements of the Group are
prepared in accordance with IFRSs as adopted by the European Union. The
condensed set of financial statements included in this half-yearly financial
report has been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard
34 "Interim Financial Reporting" as adopted by the European Union.
Our responsibility
Our responsibility is to express to the Company a conclusion on the condensed
set of financial statements in the half-yearly financial report based on our
review.
Scope of review
We conducted our review in accordance with International Standard on Review
Engagements (UK and Ireland) 2410 "Review of Interim Financial Information
Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity" issued by the Auditing
Practices Board for use in the United Kingdom. A review of interim financial
information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for
financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review
procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in
accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK and Ireland) and
consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware
of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly,
we do not express an audit opinion.
Conclusion
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to
believe that the condensed set of financial statements in the half-yearly
financial report for the 26 week period ended 2 April 2016 is not prepared, in
all material respects, in accordance with
