Atlanta, Georgia — February 14, 2008 — Georgia Gulf today announced financial results for the three months and the year ended December 31, 2007, as well as its key business plan objectives for 2008.

Georgia Gulf reported net sales of $776.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2007 compared to net sales of $681.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2006, representing a 14% increase. In spite of challenging market conditions, each of the Company’s reportable segments generated higher sales than in the same quarter during the prior year.

Georgia Gulf reported a net loss of $227.3 million or $6.62 per diluted share for the fourth quarter of 2007, compared to a net loss of $47.2 million or $1.38 per diluted share during the same quarter in the previous year. The decline in net income was due to non-cash charges recorded in the fourth quarter of 2007 totaling $207.8 million, or $6.05 per diluted share. These charges included an asset impairment charge of $155.7 million or $4.53 per diluted share, reflecting write-downs of goodwill, intangible and other long-lived assets in the Window & Door Profiles and Mouldings, Outdoor Building Products and Chlorovinyls segments, primarily as a result of substantial declines in North American construction activity. In addition, the Company recorded a non-cash charge of $52.1 million or $1.52 per diluted share, pertaining to a valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets in Canada. Excluding the impact of non-cash charges, the net loss during the fourth quarter of 2007 was $19.5 million, or $0.57 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $35.7 million or $1.05 per diluted share in the prior year excluding the non-recurring impact of $11.5 million, net of tax or $0.34 per diluted share from valuing Royal Group’s inventory at fair value as of the date of the acquisition, as required by purchase accounting standards.

The Company reported an operating loss of $152.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2007, compared to an operating loss of $22.2 million during the same quarter in the prior year. Georgia Gulf’s operating income excluding the non-cash charges previously discussed was $2.9 million during the fourth quarter of 2007, compared to an operating loss of $4.2 million during the same quarter in the prior year exclusive of $18 million of purchase accounting for fair valuation of inventory. The $7.1 million improvement in the operating income (loss) line reflects the progress Georgia Gulf has made reducing its costs, amidst a difficult industry environment. In addition, Georgia Gulf’s operating income was negatively impacted by approximately $10.0 million due to the fluctuating exchange rate between the Canadian and US dollars for the fourth quarter of 2007 over the fourth quarter of 2006.

For the year ended December 31, 2007, Georgia Gulf’s sales were $3.2 billion, compared to $2.4 billion during 2006. The increase in sales can be primarily attributed to the acquisition of Royal Group, which occurred on October 3, 2006. In fiscal 2007, Georgia Gulf recorded a net loss of $266.0 million or $7.75 per diluted share, compared to net income of $48.5 million or $1.41 per diluted share in the prior year. The primary reasons for the significant 2007 net loss are the previously discussed non-cash charges totaling $207.8 million or $6.05 per diluted share recorded in during the fourth quarter of 2007, as well as additional interest expense associated with the Royal Group acquisition. During 2007, the Company’s interest expense was $135.0 million, compared to $46.4 million in the prior year. Excluding the non-cash charges recorded in the fourth quarter, as well as $1.3 million, net of tax or $0.04 per diluted share relating to the purchase accounting for fair valuation of inventories recorded in the first quarter of the year, the Company recorded a net loss of $56.9 million or $1.66 per diluted share in 2007. This loss compares to net income of $60.1 million or $1.75 per diluted share in 2006, excluding $11.5 million, net of tax or $0.34 per diluted share from valuing Royal Group’s inventory at fair value as of the date of the acquisition, as required by purchase accounting standards.

As of December 31, 2007, total debt including asset securitization, but excluding lease financing obligations, was approximately $209.5 million lower than in the prior year. During 2007, Georgia Gulf generated cash flow from operating activities of $128.2 million, with divestitures being a cash source of $105.3 million. “Georgia Gulf’s positive cash flow from operating activities helped us to reduce debt in 2007, which remains our primary goal for 2008,” commented Ed Schmitt, retiring Chairman, President and CEO. “During the toughest year our industry has witnessed in quite some time, we improved certain market positions, lowered our cost structure and reduced our debt,” added Mr. Schmitt.

Window & Door Profiles and Mouldings

In the window & door profiles and mouldings segment, sales were $126.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2007, compared to $117.0 million recorded during the same quarter in the prior year. The window & door profiles and mouldings segment’s operating loss for the fourth quarter of 2007 was $60.0 million compared to $5.9 million for the same quarter in 2006. Excluding non-cash charges of $61.1 million for impairment of goodwill, intangibles and other long-lived assets, operating income was $1.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2007. This operating income compares to an operating loss of $0.9 million during the same quarter in the prior year excluding the impact from valuing Royal Group’s inventory at fair value as of the date of the acquisition, as required by purchase accounting standards totaling $5.0 million. The improvement is attributable to higher selling prices on flat sales volume coupled with fixed cost reductions, partially offset by higher raw material and conversion costs. The Company elected to

reduce production rates to reduce inventory levels during the fourth quarter of 2007, which resulted in higher conversion costs.

Outdoor Building Products

In the outdoor building products segment, sales were $118.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2007, compared to $108.9 million recorded during the same quarter in the prior year. Outdoor Building Products operating loss for the fourth quarter of 2007 was $53.6 million compared to an operating loss of $17.2 million for the same quarter in 2006. Excluding non-cash charges of $39.1 million for impairment of goodwill, intangibles and other long-lived assets, the segment reported an operating loss of $14.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2007. In the fourth quarter of 2006, the segment reported an operating loss of $5.8 million, excluding the impact from valuing Royal Group’s inventory at fair value as of the date of the acquisition, as required by purchase accounting standards totaling $11.4 million. The increased operating loss is attributable to higher material and conversion costs, which were partially offset by higher selling prices. The Company elected to reduce production rates to reduce inventory levels during the fourth quarter of 2007, which resulted in higher conversion costs.

Chlorovinyls

In the chlorovinyls segment, sales increased to $356.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2007 from $321.0 million during the fourth quarter of 2006. Chlorovinyls operating loss for the fourth quarter of 2007 was $31.9 million compared to operating income of $23.0 million for the same quarter in 2006. Excluding non-cash charges of $55.5 million for impairment of goodwill and other long-lived assets, the segment operating income in the fourth quarter of 2007 was $23.5 million compared to operating income of $24.6 million in the same quarter during the prior year, excluding a non-cash charge of $1.6 million from valuing Royal Group’s inventory at fair value as of the date of the acquisition, as required by purchase accounting standards. Higher ethylene feedstock costs negatively impacted fourth quarter 2007 operating income, while higher average selling prices and sales volumes positively impacted performance. According to industry reports, ethylene costs rose 31% from the same quarter in the prior year, with PVC selling prices up by 1% and caustic prices up by 44%. Industry reports suggest fourth quarter PVC sales volumes were down by about 2% on a year over year basis.

Aromatics

In the aromatics segment, sales increased to $175.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2007 from $134.6 million during the fourth quarter of 2006. The segment reported operating income of $3.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2007 compared to an operating loss of $9.6 million in the same quarter during the prior year. The substantial improvement in operating performance can be attributed to higher sales volumes and average selling prices, offset slightly by higher propylene feedstock costs. According to industry sources, prices for cumene and phenol were up by 8% and 1%, respectively, compared to the same quarter in the prior year, while propylene and benzene feedstock costs were up by 38% and 5% respectively.

2008 Business Plan Highlights

In a separate News Release issued today, Georgia Gulf announced that Paul Carrico has been promoted to the position of President and Chief Executive Officer. In addition, the Company announced that Patrick Fleming has been elected Chairman of the Board. Mr. Carrico succeeds Mr. Schmitt who has served as Georgia Gulf’s Chairman, President and CEO since 1998.

Under Mr. Carrico’s leadership, Georgia Gulf targets repayment of over $125 million in debt in 2008. It intends to achieve this goal by reducing working capital, generating cash from non-operating sources, as well as achieving higher EBITDA than it did in 2007.

With demand for chemical and construction products in North America being impacted by difficult economic conditions, Georgia Gulf has been implementing plans to bolster demand for its products. In 2008, the Company is seeking to increase exports of chlorovinyl products, as well as increase its share of certain building and home improvement product markets.

Georgia Gulf intends to further reduce its cost structure by right sizing its workforce, reducing professional fees, idling certain PVC resin capacity and internally sourcing more materials consumed in extrusion operations. While savings from these initiatives will commence in the first quarter, the initiatives are not expected to have a meaningful impact until the second quarter of the year.

With its highly-efficient, modernized PVC resin production line located in Plaquemine, LA now fully operational, Georgia Gulf has temporarily idled other PVC resin production lines. As was previously announced, Georgia Gulf temporarily idled its Sarnia, Ontario PVC resin production facility in mid-December. Since then, the Company has temporarily idled certain PVC resin production lines in other facilities. In total, Georgia Gulf has now temporarily idled 700 million pounds of capacity on an annualized basis. The Company expects this capacity will remain idled for some portion of 2008. “By temporarily idling this capacity, we are moving production to our most efficient lines, reducing our costs and adding a better balance to the supply/demand equation,” noted Mr. Carrico.

In addition to initiatives aimed at improving its income statement, the Company expects to generate cash from other sources in order to reduce debt. Specifically, further real estate divestitures, working capital reductions and income tax refunds are expected to be sources of cash in 2008.

The Company is nearing settlement of its income tax dispute with the Province of Quebec for less than the originally assessed amount. This settlement would improve the Company’s liquidity position, as a result of a $44 million letter of credit being released.

“These initial plans should help us to deal with difficult, near-term market conditions, while positioning us as a highly efficient integrated vinyl building and home improvement products manufacturer,” noted Mr. Carrico. He added that, “the management team will revisit 2008 plans in the coming days, to focus the organization on those opportunities with the greatest potential to enhance shareholder value.”
