Exhibit 99.1

Armstrong World Industries Reports Third Quarter 2007 Results

LANCASTER, Pa., November 6, 2007 – Armstrong World Industries, Inc. (NYSE: AWI) today reported third quarter 2007 net sales of $913.3 million, up one percent, from $902.3 million in the same period for 2006. The sales increase includes an $18 million benefit from foreign exchange. Reported operating income from continuing operations grew to $85.9 million from $65.0 million in the third quarter of 2006. Adjusted operating income from continuing operations of $83.8 million increased five percent compared to $80.1 million in the prior year quarter on the same basis.

The Company uses adjusted income from operations in managing the business, and believes the adjustments provide users of this financial information with meaningful comparisons of operating performance between periods. Adjusted income excludes the impact of fresh-start reporting, restructuring charges and related costs, and certain other gains and losses. As detailed in the attached reconciliation to GAAP, these adjustments decreased operating income by $2.1 million in the third quarter of 2007 and increased income by $15.1 million in the third quarter of 2006.

Performance in the third quarter of 2007 reflects a moderation of the growth experienced in the first six months of the year, due to increasing weakness in the U.S. residential housing market. Both sales and operating income grew modestly, with adjusted operating income increasing $4 million year-over-year. Growth in our commercial products and in our international businesses combined with improved manufacturing performance to offset downward pressure on sales of residential products.

Segment Highlights

Resilient Flooring net sales were $327.9 million in the third quarter of 2007 compared to $319.8 million in the same period of 2006. Excluding the favorable impact of foreign

exchange rates, net sales were flat. Improved product mix in North America and Europe offset lower volume of residential vinyl products. Reported operating income was $15.6 million in the quarter, up from a loss of $1.1 million in the third quarter of 2006. Adjusted operating income grew to $13.4 million from $6.3 million on the same basis in the prior year period on reduced manufacturing expense and lower SG&A.

Wood Flooring net sales of $191.9 million in the third quarter of 2007 declined 12 percent from $217.2 million in the prior year quarter on volume declines related to the residential housing market slowdown. Reported operating income in the third quarter was $16.9 million compared to income of $16.5 million reported in the third quarter of 2006. Adjusted operating income of $13.5 million declined from income of $16.5 million on the same basis in the prior year period. The reduction in operating income was due to the decline in sales volume and higher lumber prices, which offset improved manufacturing productivity and better product mix.

Building Products net sales of $334.8 million in the third quarter of 2007 increased from $304.5 million in the prior year quarter. Excluding the effects of favorable foreign exchange rates of $9 million, sales increased by seven percent due to price realization and improved product mix in North America and to volume growth in Europe. Reported operating income increased to $62.3 million from $59.7 million in the third quarter of 2006. Adjusted operating income of $66.8 million grew from $59.7 million on the same basis in the prior year period. The growth was driven by improved price realization and improved manufacturing productivity. These benefits were partially offset by inflation in raw materials and by higher SG&A expense supporting sales growth.

Cabinets net sales in the third quarter of 2007 of $58.7 million decreased four percent from $60.8 million in 2006 primarily due to the implementation of an ERP (enterprise resource planning) system which pushed some sales into the fourth quarter, and to volume reductions related to declines in the U.S. housing market. Reported operating income for the third quarter of $1.5 million decreased from $3.8 million in the prior year due to lower sales, and to temporary manufacturing inefficiencies related to the system implementation. There were no adjustments to operating income in either period.

Unallocated corporate expense of $10.4 million in 2007 decreased from $13.9 million in 2006. Adjusted expense of $11.2 million increased from $6.2 million on the same basis in the prior year, primarily due to higher incentive compensation expenses.

Free cash flow of $119 million in the third quarter of 2007 was above $19 million in 2006 on higher earnings, lower capital spending and reduced tax payments.

Year-to-Date Results

For the nine months ended June 30, 2007, net sales were $2,697.3 million compared to $2,608.6 million in 2006. Excluding a $50 million favorable impact from exchange rates, net sales increased by two percent. Improvement in both price and product mix offset modest volume declines.

Reported operating income for the first nine months was $245.6 million compared to operating income of $194.3 million for the same period in 2006. Adjusted operating income of $239.5 million increased 15 percent compared to adjusted operating income of $207.5 million in the prior year period. Operating income grew due to benefits from price realization and manufacturing productivity in excess of inflation, and to improved product mix.

Free cash flow for the first nine months of $264 million exceeded $30 million for 2006. The year over year growth was due to higher earnings, less capital spending, lower tax payments and reduced working capital. In addition, 2007 benefited from $86.0 million of increased dividends from WAVE.

Outlook

Global macroeconomic indicators suggest a diverse outlook for key markets for the remainder of 2007. Based on these indicators, we expect flat-to-modest growth across North American and European commercial markets, and sustained growth in the Pacific Rim. The outlook for North American residential markets remains weak due to the continuing decline in U.S. housing starts and largely negative indicators for renovation. On a consolidated basis, improved prices and increased manufacturing productivity are anticipated to offset cost inflation.

Based on these factors, management reaffirmed its previous estimates for 2007: The range of adjusted operating income is $280 million to $292 million, an increase of 10-to-15 percent. The outlook for sales growth is 2-to-3 percent. Free cash flow for the year is anticipated to be between $470 million and $490 million. Due to further weakness in North American markets, results are likely to be toward the low end of the range. (Please reference the GAAP reconciliation tables at the end of this release.)
