Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure

In the third quarter of 2007, PPG Industries, Inc. (“the Company”) announced that it had entered into separate agreements to sell both its automotive glass and automotive replacement glass and services businesses and its fine chemicals business. Based on the third quarter commitments to sell these businesses, the Company determined that the accounting requirements of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets” for classifying these businesses as assets held for sale and reporting their results of operations and cash flows as discontinued operations were met. The condensed consolidated financial statements filed in the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2007 presented these businesses as assets held for sale and reported their results as discontinued operations. The financial information below presents the sales and earnings of the Company and of its reportable segments for the year ended December 31, 2006 and for all quarters in 2006 after adjustment to reclassify the results of operations of the automotive glass and automotive replacement glass and services businesses and fine chemicals business to discontinued operations.
