English: In addition, the market for digital terrestrial television was developing favourably, with growing demand for digital television subscriptions, in particular during the autumn of 2002. For Teracom, this led to a significant increase in annual subscription sales from approximately 100000 at the end of 2001 to approximately 140000 at the end of 2002.
Spanish: Además, el mercado de la TDT se desarrollaba favorablemente, con una creciente demanda de abonados, en especial durante el otoño de 2002, lo que se tradujo para Teracom en un aumento significativo de los abonados anuales, pasando de unos 100000 a finales de 2001 a aproximadamente 140000 a finales de 2002.
Polish: Ponadto nastąpił korzystny rozwój rynku cyfrowej telewizji naziemnej, wzrósł popyt na abonament na telewizję cyfrową, szczególnie jesienią 2002 r. Dla spółki Teracom oznaczało to znaczący wzrost rocznej sprzedaży abonamentu z około 100000 pod koniec 2001 r. do 140000 pod koniec 2002 r. Działania na rzecz zmniejszenia kosztów i wzrost sprzedaży w drugiej połowie 2002 r. znacząco poprawiły sytuację finansową i ekonomiczną spółki.
English: The Government maintains that, in this situation, the shareholder capital injection did not constitute State aid. According to the Government, a private investor would, in the same situation, have been prepared to contribute capital because Teracom's long-term financial forecasts were positive.
Spanish: El Gobierno mantiene que en esta situación la aportación de capital de los accionistas no constituyó ayuda estatal ya que un inversor privado en la misma situación habría estado dispuesto a aportar capital porque las previsiones financieras a largo plazo de Teracom eran positivas.
Italian: Il governo ritiene che il contributo di azionista non costituisse un aiuto di Stato giacché, nella stessa situazione, un investitore privato sarebbe stato disposto a conferire il capitale, dato che le previsioni finanziarie a lungo termine di Teracom erano positive.
English: The Government adds that, in this context and contrary to what it should have done, the Commission did not take into account all relevant factors in examining whether the capital injection could be expected to generate a reasonable return. The Commission limited its analysis to Teracom's past losses and its solvency ratio.
Spanish: El Gobierno añade que en este contexto y contrariamente a lo que debería haber hecho, la Comisión no tuvo en cuenta todos los factores pertinentes al examinar si se podía esperar que la aportación de capital generara un rendimiento razonable y limitó su análisis a las pérdidas de Teracom en el pasado y a su coeficiente de solvencia.
English: Finally, the Government is of the opinion that the Commission did not sufficiently take into account the broader context of the capital injection. It should, for example, have taken into account that the injection was necessary to secure the investments already made which, in the long term, were expected to be profitable.
Spanish: Finalmente, el Gobierno opina que la Comisión no tuvo suficientemente en cuenta el contexto más amplio de la aportación de capital, por ejemplo teniendo presente que la era necesaria para asegurar las inversiones ya realizadas y que se esperaba que fueran rentables a largo plazo.
English: While the calculations in the opening Decision were to a large extent based only on estimates of SVT's payments and Teracom's costs, the Commission has in the present Decision based its calculations on actual figures (see Table 4 above). These figures demonstrate that, during the period from 1999 to 2006, SVT has not made excessive payments to Teracom.
Spanish: Mientras que los cálculos de la decisión de incoación se basaban en gran parte solo en cálculos de pagos de SVT y de costes de Teracom, en la presente Decisión la Comisión ha basado sus cálculos en cifras reales (véase el cuadro 4) que demuestran que durante ese período SVT no realizó pagos excesivos a Teracom.
English: Finally, as has been explained by the Government (see paragraph 40 above) and contrary to the concern raised by the Commission in the opening Decision, SVT is not obliged to use all the funds it receives from the distribution account to pay Teracom for transmission. SVT negotiates the transmission price independently with Teracom, and if it ends up spending less on transmission than forecast it is free to use these funds for its programme activities.
Spanish: Finalmente, como ya explicó el Gobierno (véase el considerando 40) y contrariamente a la inquietud despertada por la Comisión en la decisión de incoación, SVT no está obligada a utilizar todos los fondos que recibe de la cuenta de distribución para pagar a Teracom por la transmisión sino que negocia independientemente el precio de transmisión con Teracom y si finalmente desembolsa menos en transmisión de lo previsto, es libre de utilizar estos fondos para sus actividades de programación.
English: As described in detail in Section 7.3 above, the Government made an assessment of Teracom's economic and financial position based on the company's business plans for the years 2003 to 2005, its financial forecasts for the period 2003 to 2010 and comparisons with other companies and other shareholders in the same and similar industries. It concluded that a conditional shareholder contribution amounting to SEK 500 million would improve Teracom's solvency and allow the company to subsequently generate enough profits to pay back the shareholder contribution within a reasonable time.
Spanish: Según se explicó detalladamente en la sección 7.3, el Gobierno hizo una evaluación de la posición económica y financiera de Teracom basada en los planes empresariales de la empresa para los años 2003 a 2005, en sus previsiones financieras para el período de 2003 a 2010 y en comparaciones con otras empresas y accionistas en el propio sector y en otros similares y concluyó que una aportación condicional de los accionistas de 500 millones SEK mejoraría la solvencia de Teracom y le permitiría generar posteriormente suficientes beneficios para restituir la aportación de los accionistas en un tiempo razonable.
English: The report calculates the expected internal rate of return of the investment by determining the incremental cash flow it generates. This is done by taking the difference between two alternative scenarios — with or without the shareholder contribution.
Spanish: El informe calcula la tasa interna esperada de rendimiento de la inversión determinando el aumento de flujo de caja que genera comparando la diferencia entre dos situaciones alternativas, con o sin la aportación de los accionistas.

English: Article 1 The measures investigated by the Commission and described in this Decision relating to the introduction of digital terrestrial television in Sweden do not constitute State aid within the meaning of Article 87(1) of the EC Treaty.
Spanish: Las medidas investigadas por la Comisión y descritas en la presente Decisión, relativa a la introducción de la televisión digital terrestre en Suecia no constituyen ayuda estatal en el sentido del artículo 87, apartado 1, del Tratado CE.
English: According to the complainants, unlawful state aid has also been provided to a company called Senda i Sverige AB (‘Senda’). Senda used to be a subsidiary of Teracom dealing with the coordination, marketing and packaging of television programmes and services for terrestrial digital television.
Spanish: Según los denunciantes, también se habría proporcionado ayuda estatal ilegal a una empresa llamada Senda i Sverige AB («Senda»), una filial de Teracom encargada de la coordinación, comercialización y agrupamiento de programas y servicios para la TDT.
English: In December 2004, the Commission opened infringement proceedings against Sweden for violations of the Directive on competition in the markets for electronic communications networks and services (SG infringement No 2004/2197; Case COMP/C-1/39.157). The case concerned the maintenance of exclusive rights in the relevant sector.
Spanish: En diciembre de 2004, la Comisión incoó un procedimiento de infracción contra Suecia por violaciones de la Directiva sobre competencia en los mercados de redes y servicios de comunicaciones electrónicas (infracción no 2004/2197SG; asunto COMP/E-1/39 157) relativas al mantenimiento de derechos exclusivos en el sector.

English: According to the available information, SVT had been allocated funding for transmission which, cumulated over the period from 2002 to 2013, would exceed Teracom's expected costs of transmitting SVT's channels. The excess funding appeared to amount to approximately SEK 509,61 million by 2013 (see below).
Hungarian: Az összeget, amellyel a várható költségeket átlépik, a 2013-ig mintegy 509,61 millió SEK nagyságúra becsülték (lásd: 2. táblázat alább).

Lithuanian: Manyta, kad numatomas išlaidas viršijanti suma iki 2013 m. sudarys apie 509,61 mln. Švedijos kronų (SEK) (žr. 2 lentelę).
English: As of 2008, however, when the analogue terrestrial network will be switched off and SVT will no longer be obliged to make parallel transmissions in analogue and digital mode, the information suggested that SVT's annual payments would exceed Teracom's costs of transmitting SVT: from 2008 until 2013, SVT would, every year, pay Teracom considerably in excess of its transmission costs. In 2013, SVT's payments were estimated at 2,3 times the size of its transmission costs.
Hungarian: Becslések szerint az SVT díjfizetése a 2013-as évben az átviteli költségek 2,3-szeresét tenné ki.
Estonian: Hinnatakse, et 2013. aastaks ületavad SVT maksed ligikaudu 2,3 korda nende ülekandekulusid.
Lithuanian: Buvo apskaičiuota, kad 2013 m. SVT mokėjimai 2,3 karto viršys perdavimo išlaidas.

English: According to section 4 of the Notice on Guarantees, only the fulfilment of all of a number of conditions ensures that an individual State guarantee does not constitute State aid under Article 87(1). (53) On the basis of the background to the credit guarantee and the reasons for the decision to issue a guarantee — as explained in the opening Decision (Teracom's poor financial situation and falling solvency), the Commission had reason to believe that the conditions set out in section 4 of the Notice on Guarantees might not have been fulfilled and that the credit guarantee constituted State aid to Teracom.
Estonian: Arvestades kõnealuse krediidigarantii tausta ja põhjusi garantii andmiseks vastavalt menetluse alustamise otsuses esitatutele (Teracomi majanduslikud raskused ja järjest halvem maksejõulisus), oli komisjonil põhjust arvata, et riigigarantiide teatise 4. jaos sätestatud tingimused ei ole täidetud ja et riigigarantii kujutab endast riigiabi Teracomile.

English: According to the Government, these figures allow the Commission to verify that for the entire period since the launch of the digital terrestrial network in April 1999 SVT has not made any excessive payments to Teracom. The information relating to these additional years also addresses the concern raised by the Commission in the opening Decision, namely that SVT received extra funds during the initial phase of the roll-out of the digital terrestrial network (from 1997 until 2001) i.e., before the distribution account was created.
Estonian: Teave 1999. ja 2001. aasta kohta selgitab ka menetluse alustamise otsuses komisjoni tõstatatud probleemi, et SVT-le eraldati täiendavaid vahendeid maapealse digitaalvõrgu väljaehitamise esimese etapi (1997–2001) jooksul, st enne levitamiskonto loomist.

English: The opening Decision was published in the Official Journal of the European Union on 25 September 2004. It called upon Sweden and other interested parties to submit their comments on the alleged aid measures.
Italian: La decisione di avvio del procedimento, pubblicata nella Gazzetta ufficiale dell’Unione europea il 25 settembre 2004, invitava la Svezia e le altre parti interessate a presentare osservazioni sul presunto aiuto.

English: While all the digital platforms — satellite, cable and terrestrial — experienced growth during the period from 2000 to 2005, satellite was at the forefront of digitisation (see Figure 2). Figure 2:
Italian: Durante il periodo 2000-2005 tutte le piattaforme digitali — satellitare, cavo e terrestre — hanno avuto una crescita, ma il satellitare ha conosciuto la maggiore digitalizzazione (v. la figura 2).
English: According to Swedish law, each household that owns a television set must pay a television licence fee. The money from the television licence fee finances the public service companies (television and radio) in Sweden.
Italian: Secondo la legge svedese, ogni famiglia che possiede un televisore deve pagare un canone destinato a finanziare le società del servizio pubblico (televisione e radio) in Svezia.
English: In addition, at the time of the opening Decision, the Commission had no information suggesting that the aid would be compatible with the EC Treaty. None of the derogations provided for in Articles 87(2), 87(3) or 86(2) seemed to be applicable and it was problematic that Sweden appeared to have disregarded the principle of technological neutrality during the digitalisation process.
Italian: Inoltre, al momento della decisione di avviare il procedimento la Commissione non aveva accesso a nessuna informazione dalla quale risultasse che l’aiuto fosse compatibile con il trattato CE: da un canto, nessuna delle deroghe previste dall’articolo 87, paragrafo 2 e 3, o dall’articolo 86, paragrafo 2, sembrava essere applicabile, dall’altro vi era l’impressione che durante il processo di digitalizzazione la Svezia non avesse rispettato il principio della neutralità tecnologica.
English: Finally, Teracom's costs as presented in include imputed costs such as the owner's required rate of return. Such imputed costs are not considered losses under accountancy rules.
Italian: In terzo luogo, i costi di Teracom quali risultano dalla tabella 4 comprendono costi imputati, come il tasso di rendimento richiesto dal proprietario, che secondo le regole di contabilità non sono perdite.

English: See the 29 October response, section 3.6.2; and the framework agreement (‘ramavtal’) between Teracom and SVT signed on 4 March 2004, annexed to the 20 March response. The reason why Teracom is no longer obliged to price analogue transmission at cost level is the recent decision (with commitments) issued by the PTS. Since that decision, Teracom's prices are subject to ex ante control by the PTS.
