Prior notification of a concentration
(Case M.9277 — Nalka Invest/OneMed)
Candidate case for simplified procedure
(Text with EEA relevance)
(2019/C 58/12)

1.   
On 5 February 2019, the Commission received notification of a proposed concentration pursuant to Article 4 of Council Regulation (EC) No 139/2004 (1).
This notification concerns the following undertakings:






—


Nalka Invest AB (‘Nalka Invest’, Sweden), belonging to the Interogo Group, which is ultimately controlled by the Interogo Foundation (Liechtenstein);










—


OneMed AB (‘OneMed’, Sweden).




Nalka Invest, through its portfolio company Strukturfonden HC15 AB, acquires within the meaning of Article 3(1)(b) of the Merger Regulation control of the whole of OneMed. The concentration is accomplished by way of purchase of shares.


2.   
The business activities of the undertakings concerned are:
—   for Nalka Invest: a Swedish investment company controlling Strukturfonden HC15 AB that invests in small and medium-sized companies mainly in the Nordics, aiming to invest in different industries and to have a diversified portfolio;
—   for Interogo Group: comprises IKEA Holding B.V. (the Netherlands), which has several business areas related to the IKEA furniture business, and Interogo Holding AG (Switzerland), an investment company which focuses on property investments and financial investments;
—   for OneMed: provides services, support systems and medical supplies to health care providers in the Nordics, Baltics and Netherlands.


3.   
On preliminary examination, the Commission finds that the notified transaction could fall within the scope of the Merger Regulation. However, the final decision on this point is reserved.
Pursuant to the Commission Notice on a simplified procedure for treatment of certain concentrations under the Council Regulation (EC) No 139/2004 (2) it should be noted that this case is a candidate for treatment under the procedure set out in the Notice.


4.

Notice concerning the anti-dumping measures in force on imports into the Union of sodium cyclamate originating in the People’s Republic of China and Indonesia: change of address of a company subject to an individual duty rate
(2019/C 58/11)
Imports of sodium cyclamate originating in the People’s Republic of China and Indonesia are subject to definitive anti-dumping duties (1) imposed by Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2016/1160 (2).
One company located in People’s Republic of China, whose exports to the Union of sodium cyclamate are subject to an individual anti-dumping duty rate, informed the Commission that it had changed its official address as set out below.
The company asked the Commission to confirm that the change of address does not affect the right of the company to benefit from the individual duty rate applied to the company under its previous address.
The Commission examined the information supplied and concluded that the change of address in no way affects the findings of Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2016/1160.
Therefore, the reference in Article 1(2) of Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2016/1160 to:






Golden Time Chemical (Jiangsu) Co., Ltd, No 90-168, Fangshui Road, Chemical Industry Zone, Nanjing, Jiangsu Province, People’s Republic of China

(1)  Initially imposed by Council Regulation (EC) No 435/2004 of 8 March 2004 imposing a definitive anti-dumping duty and collecting definitively the provisional duty imposed on imports of sodium cyclamate originating in the People’s Republic of China and Indonesia (OJ L 72, 11.3.2004, p. 1) (no longer in force).

(2)  Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2016/1160 of 15 July 2016 imposing a definitive anti-dumping duty on imports of sodium cyclamate originating in the People’s Republic of China and Indonesia following an expiry review pursuant to Article 11(2) of Council Regulation (EC) No 1225/2009 (OJ L 192, 16.7.2016, p. 49).
