På baggrund af en sådan analyse kan der dog ikke drages konklusioner vedrørende prisunderbud i årene forud for undersøgelsesperioden. Der kan kun beregnes en nøjagtig og pålidelig underbudsmargen for undersøgelsesperioden, da dette skal ske på grundlag af en sammenligning model for model og ved at foretage de relevante tilpasninger for (efterfølgende) importomkostninger og forskelle i handelsled.
However, on the basis of such analysis no conclusion can be drawn as regards the undercutting in the years preceding the IP; an accurate and reliable undercutting margin can only be calculated for the IP as it should be made on the basis of a model-by-model comparison and whilst making the appropriate adjustment for (post-) importation costs and differences in level of trade.
Disse oplysninger var kun tilgængelige for undersøgelsesperioden.
Such data were only available for the IP.
Der kan altså ikke drages konklusioner om, hvorvidt importen fra Kina underbød EF-erhvervsgrenens priser i den betragtede periode.
No conclusion can therefore be drawn as to whether imports from the PRC have undercut the Community industry prices throughout the period considered.
Undersøgelsen fastslog endvidere, at der var et markant pristryk på markedet.
The investigation had further established that there was a significant price depression on the market.
Pristrykket var skadevoldende på grund af den markante stigning i omkostningerne til de vigtigste råvarer i den samme periode, jf. betragtning 78 og 79 i forordningen om midlertidig told.
This price depression was injurious in view of the strong increase in the main raw material costs throughout the same period, as elaborated in recitals 78 and 79 of the provisional Regulation.
I betragtning af de modtagne bemærkninger og som nævnt i betragtning 70 ovenfor blev udviklingen i råvarepriserne i den betragtede periode analyseret på årsbasis.
In view of the comments received and mentioned in recital 70, the development of raw material prices during the period considered was analysed on a year-by-year basis.
Som anført i betragtning 78 i forordningen om midlertidig told er vinylacetatmonomer (»VAM«) den vigtigste råvare til fremstilling af PVA.
As mentioned in recital 78 of the provisional Regulation, vinyl acetate monomer (VAM) is PVAs key raw material.
VAM udgør ca. 65 % af produktionsomkostningerne til PVA.
It accounts for approximately 65 % of the manufacturing cost of PVA.
Skemaet nedenfor viser omkostningerne til VAM pr. ton PVA i den betragtede periode:
The table below displays the cost of VAM per tonne of PVA during the period considered:
VAM-omkostninger/ton PVA
Cost of VAM per tonne PVA
Analysen viste, at stigningen i råvareomkostningerne i 2004 var moderat sammenlignet med stigningen i disse omkostninger i 2005 og i undersøgelsesperioden.
The analysis showed that in 2004, the increase in raw material costs was moderate as compared to the increase of these costs in 2005 and the IP.
Ud fra denne udvikling i råvarepriserne, som bedst illustreres ved udviklingen i VAM-omkostningerne ovenfor, og som ikke svarede nøje til rentabilitetstendensen, kan det konkluderes, at det voldsomme fald i rentabiliteten i 2004 snarere skyldtes et fald på 7 % i EF-erhvervsgrenens salgspriser, jf. betragtning 79 i forordningen om midlertidig told, end en stigning i råvarepriserne.
In view of this development of raw material prices, which is best illustrated by the development of VAM-costs above and which did not closely correspond with the trend in profitability, it can be concluded that the sharp decrease in profitability during 2004 was caused more by the 7 % decrease in Community industrys sales prices, as indicated in recital 79 of the provisional Regulation, than by the increase in raw material costs.
På baggrund heraf blev markedsandelene i 2004 analyseret yderligere i absolutte termer og sammenlignet med 2003 for at slå fast, om dumpingimporten isoleret set har haft en væsentlig indvirkning på skaden.
Following the above, the market shares in 2004 were analysed further in absolute terms as well as compared to 2003 to establish whether the dumped imports, taken in isolation, have had a material impact on the injury.
Det blev konkluderet, at EF-erhvervsgrenens markedsandel steg med 1 % i 2004.
It was established that during 2004 the Community industry increased its market share by 1 %.
Samtidig mistede importen fra Kina 16 % af sin markedsandel.
At the same time, Chinese imports lost 16 % of their market share.
Resultatet var, at EF-erhvervsgrenens markedsandel i 2004 var mere end fire gange så stor som Kinas markedsandel.
The result was that during 2004, the market share of the Community industry accounted for more than fourfold the market share of the PRC.
Under disse omstændigheder kunne pristrykket i det centrale år 2004 vanskeligt tilskrives importen fra Kina, da importmængderne var forholdsvis små og markant faldende.
In these circumstances, it is indeed considered difficult to attribute the price depression in the pivotal year 2004 to the imports from the PRC, as its quantities were relatively low and strongly declining.
Efter fremlæggelsen af de endelige konklusioner gjorde EF-erhvervsgrenen gældende, at selv med en begrænset markedsandel har dumpingimporten forårsaget alvorlige forstyrrelser på markedet på grund af forretningens karakter.
Following definitive disclosure, the Community industry argued that even with a low market share the dumped imports managed to cause severe disruption on the market, due to the nature of the business.
Den hævdede, at Kommissionen ville have gjort gældende, at PVA er en råvare, og den laveste pris, der tilbydes på markedet, er i vidt omfang afgørende for markedsprisen, som andre producenter må tilpasse sig, hvis de ønsker at bevare deres ordrer.
It claimed that the Commission would have argued that PVA is a commodity, and that the lowest price quoted on the market determines to a large extent the market price, which other producers have to adapt to, if they wish to keep their orders.
Det burde påpeges, at Kommissionen i dokumentet med de endelige konklusioner kun havde citeret en påstand fra klageren uden at tilslutte sig den.
It should be clarified that the Commission had, in the definitive disclosure document, only cited a claim of the complainant without endorsing it.
Klageren hævdede endvidere, at denne påståede indvirkning fra importen fra Kina på EF-erhvervsgrenens salgspriser ville fremgå af, at EF-erhvervsgrenens salgspriser har vist en faldende tendens i den betragtede periode, mens priserne på den vigtigste råvare, VAM, er steget kraftigt.
The complainant further argued that this alleged influence of imports from the PRC on the Community industry sales prices would be demonstrated by the decreasing trend in the Community industry’s sales prices over the period considered, while prices of the main raw material, VAM, soared.
EF-erhvervsgrenen fastholdt, at den ikke var i stand til at overvælte stigningen i råvarepriserne på sine kunder på grund af dumpingimportens kraftige pristryk, som ville have medført et markant fald i rentabilitet, afkast af investeringer og likviditet.
The Community industry maintained that it was not in a position to pass on the increase in raw material prices to its customers due to the strong price pressure of the dumped imports which would have led to a pronounced decrease in profitability, return on investments and cash flow.
Hvis udviklingen undersøges nærmere, fremgår det ikke desto mindre, at den markante forværring af EF-erhvervsgrenens finansielle situation især fandt sted fra 2004 til undersøgelsesperioden.
Nevertheless, when looking at the development in more detail, it appears that the considerable deterioration of the Community industry’s financial situation occurred mainly as from 2004 until the IP.
I 2003, hvor importen fra Kina havde en markedsandel på 11,3 %, og salgspriserne ikke varierede meget fra de efterfølgende år, havde EF-erhvervsgrenen tilfredsstillende resultater, især hvad angår rentabilitet.
In 2003, when imports from the PRC had a market share of 11,3 % and sales prices did not vary much from the subsequent years, the Community industry was performing satisfactorily, in particular in terms of profitability.
Denne vurdering støttes af det forhold, at selv EF-erhvervsgrenen havde betegnet (2002 og) 2003 som et år »før den omfattende indtrængning af dumpingimport på markedet i Fællesskabet«.
This evaluation is supported by the fact that even the Community industry had characterised (2002 and) 2003 as a year ‘before the major import penetration by the dumped imports on the Community market’.
Dette bekræftes af undersøgelsesresultaterne, og det blev således i betragtning 131 i forordningen om midlertidig told vurderet, at der i 2003 fandtes en normal konkurrencesituation på Fællesskabets marked.
This was corroborated by the findings of the investigation and it was thus considered in recital 131 of the provisional Regulation, that 2003 was indeed a year in which there was a normal competitive situation on the Community market.
Ingen af de interesserede parter har gjort indsigelse mod dette, hvilket antyder, at eventuelle handelsforvridninger i 2003 var begrænsede.
This had not been contested by any of the interested parties and it would suggest that during 2003, trade distortions, if any, were limited.
I 2004, da importen fra Kina faldt, mens salgspriserne forblev stabile, forværredes EF-erhvervsgrenens finansielle situation pludselig dramatisk.
In 2004, on the contrary, when imports from the PRC decreased while its sales price remained fairly stable, the Community industrys financial situation suddenly deteriorated dramatically.
Efter fremlæggelsen af de endelige konklusioner gjorde EF-erhvervsgrenen gældende, at Kommissionen med urette ville hævde, at dumpingimporten var den væsentligste årsag til skaden.
Following definitive disclosure, the Community industry claimed that the Commission would erroneously require the dumped imports to be the principal cause of injury.
I den forbindelse bemærkes det, at Kommissionen ikke hævdede, at dumpingimporten var den væsentligste årsag til skaden.
In this respect, it is noted that the Commission did not require the dumped imports to be the principle cause of injury.
Ifølge grundforordningens artikel 3, stk. 6, fremgår det, at »de mængder og/eller priser, (…), er årsag til de følgevirkninger for en erhvervsgren i Fællesskabet, (…), og at følgevirkningerne er væsentlige.«
Indeed, Article 3(6) of the basic Regulation stipulates that ‘volumes and/or price levels (…) are responsible for an impact on the Community industry (…) and that this impact exists to a degree which enables it to be classified as material (emphasis added).’
En yderligere analyse af de kendsgerninger, der blev fastslået i løbet af undersøgelsen, har vist, at dumpingimporten isoleret set har haft en indvirkning på EF-erhvervsgrenens skadevoldende situation, men i betragtning af dens samlet set begrænsede markedsandele i forhold til EF-erhvervsgrenens voksende markedsandele og et manglende klart sammenfald i tid mellem dumpingimporten og EF-erhvervsgrenens mest skadevoldende situation, betragtes denne indvirkning ikke som væsentlig.
A further analysis of the facts as established during the investigation has shown that the dumped imports, taken in isolation, have had an impact on the injurious situation of the Community industry, but given its overall limited market shares in relation to the increasing market shares of the Community industry and a missing clear coincidence in time between the dumped imports and the most injurious situation of the Community industry, this impact is not considered to be material.
Ud fra ovenstående betragtninger kan det ikke konkluderes, at dumpingimporten har haft en indvirkning på den skade, som EF-erhvervsgrenen har lidt, der kan karakteriseres som væsentlig.
Based on the above considerations, it cannot be concluded that the dumped imports have had an impact on the injury suffered by the Community industry that can be classified as material.
Efter indførelsen af de midlertidige foranstaltninger blev der indsamlet oplysninger, som viste, at Eurostats data vedrørende import fra USA var ufuldstændige.
Subsequent to the imposition of provisional measures, information was obtained which pointed at the incompleteness of the Eurostat data as regards imports from the USA.
De anførte mængder var tilsyneladende for lavt sat i forhold til eksportdata fra den amerikanske eksportdatabase og andre kilder.
The volumes reported appeared to be too low if compared to export data from the USA export database but also to other sources.
Oplysningerne om denne import skulle derfor revideres, og det blev fundet mest hensigtsmæssigt at udskifte dem med de indhentede data fra den amerikanske eksportdatabase, hvorved værdierne, omregnet til euro, blev tilpasset cif-importprisen, Fællesskabets grænse.
The data concerning these imports therefore had to be revised and it was found most appropriate to replace them by the data acquired from the USA export database, whereby the values, converted into Euro, were duly adjusted to CIF Community frontier level.
Indvirkningen af de reviderede importmængder fra Kina i 2003 på det beregnede fællesskabsforbrug påvirkede også andre landes markedsandele det år.
The impact of the revised import volumes from the PRC in 2003 on the calculated Community consumption also affected the market shares of other countries in that year.
Tabellerne i betragtning 97 i forordningen om midlertidig told er derfor blevet ændret som følger:
The tables in recital 97 of the provisional Regulation have therefore been amended as follows:
Taiwan (intervaller)
Taiwan (ranges)
Gennemsnitspris (EUR)
Average price (EUR)
Taiwan (indeks)
Taiwan (index)
Sammenlignet med forordningen om midlertidig told består forskellen især i mængden af varer importeret fra USA og den tendens, der kan konstateres vedrørende denne import.
Compared to the provisional Regulation, the main difference consists in the quantities of USA imports and the trend that can be observed as regards those imports.
I den betragtede periode var der faktisk kun en let stigning i importen af PVA fra USA, nemlig en stigning på to procentpoint udtrykt i markedsandel, hvorimod det i forordningen om midlertidig told fejlagtigt var blevet konkluderet, at importen i den periode var blevet fordoblet.
Indeed, during the period considered, there was a slight increase of imports of PVA from the USA only, i.e. an increase by 2 percentage points in terms of market share whereas it was erroneously concluded in the provisional Regulation that they had doubled during that period.
Desuden forekommer cif-importprisen, Fællesskabets grænse, generelt at være højere end foreløbigt konkluderet med priser, der var 4,3 % højere i undersøgelsesperioden.
Furthermore, the CIF Community frontier prices of these imports appear to be generally higher than provisionally concluded, with prices that were 4,3 % higher during the IP.
De øvrige konklusioner vedrørende denne import, som er resumeret i betragtning 98 i forordningen om midlertidig told, gælder stadig.
The other conclusions with regard to these imports, as summarised in recital 98 of the provisional Regulation, remain valid.
Flere interesserede parter udtrykte alvorlig tvivl om pålideligheden af Eurostats oplysninger om priserne på import fra Japan, jf. betragtning 97 og 99 i forordningen om midlertidig told, da den gennemsnitlige enhedspris på disse importerede varer lå betydeligt højere end enhedsprisen på PVA fra andre kilder.
Referring to recitals 97 and 99 of the provisional Regulation, several interested parties expressed serious doubts as to the reliability of the Eurostat prices on Japanese imports, as the average unit prices of these imports were significantly higher than the unit prices of PVA from other sources.
En interesseret part påstod, at de høje gennemsnitlige salgspriser kunne skyldes en fejlagtig inddragelse af andre dyrere varer, f.eks. PVB.
One interested party claimed that the high average sales price could stem from an erroneous inclusion of other more expensive products, such as PVB.
I den forbindelse skal det understreges, at disse data var blevet undersøgt nøje, og at det på grundlag af denne analyse var blevet konkluderet, jf. betragtning 99 i forordningen om midlertidig told, at importen fra Japan ikke kunne have bidraget til den negative pristendens, der medførte en alvorlig forværring af EF-erhvervsgrenens finansielle situation.
In this respect, it is important to underline that these data had been investigated in detail and that on the basis of that analysis it had been concluded, as indicated in recital 99 of the provisional Regulation, that Japanese imports could not have contributed to the negative price trend which led to the serious deterioration of the Community industry’s financial situation.
For fuldstændighedens og klarhedens skyld bringes her et sammendrag af analysen.
For the sake of completeness and clarity, a summary of this analysis follows.
En nærmere gennemgang af Eurostats data vedrørende import fra Japan bekræftede, at oplysningerne kun omfattede PVA, og at de derfor ikke var oppustede af dyrere varer.
A further examination of the Eurostat data concerning imports from Japan confirmed that it did not include any products other than PVA and that, hence, the data were not inflated by more expensive products.
Desuden omfattede importen af PVA fra Japan, som allerede anført i klagen, visse begrænsede mængder PVA, som ikke var den samme vare, sandsynligvis med betydeligt højere enhedspriser.
Further, as was already indicated in the complaint, the Japanese PVA imports included certain limited quantities of PVA other than the like product, with probably significantly higher unit prices.
I den beregnede gennemsnitlige værdi for import fra Japan, baseret på statistiske data, kunne indvirkningen af prisen på disse andre former for PVA ikke neutraliseres, da disse data ikke sondrede mellem den samme vare og andre former for PVA.
In the average value computed for Japanese imports, based on the statistical data, the price influence of these other PVA-grades could not be neutralised as these data do not distinguish the like product from other PVA-grades.
Ud fra de anslåede importmængder, baseret på oplysningerne i klagen, og den beregnede gennemsnitspris for den samlede PVA-import fra Japan i undersøgelsesperioden blev det dog konstateret, at det ville være meget usandsynligt, at udelukkelsen af PVA-varer, der ikke hører under varedefinitionen, ville resultere i en gennemsnitlig cif-pris, Fællesskabets grænse, på den samme vare, som underbød EF-erhvervsgrenens salgspriser i undersøgelsesperioden.
However, taking into account the approximate volumes of such imports, based on the data in the complaint, and in view of the average price computed for all Japanese PVA imports during the IP, it had been established that it would be very unlikely that the exclusion of the PVA grades not falling under the product definition would result in an average CIF Community frontier price of the like product, which would undercut the Community sales price level during the IP.
Desuden kunne omkring 25 % af importen fra Japan i undersøgelsesperioden kontrolleres, og den vedrørte PVA-varer, der hørte under varedækningen.
Moreover, around 25 % of the Japanese imports during the IP could be verified and they concerned PVA grades falling under the product scope.
Salget foregik til forretningsmæssigt forbundne parter, dvs. til afregningspriser, og det blev konstateret, at priserne ved videresalg af disse varer til de første uafhængige kunder i Fællesskabet var i gennemsnit 8-10 % over de priser, som EF-erhvervsgrenen kunne opnå.
These sales were made to related parties, i.e. at transfer prices, and it had been found that the resale prices of these purchases to the first independent customers in the Community were on average 8 to 10 % above the prices that the Community industry could obtain.
Det blev derfor konkluderet og fastholdt, at intet tyder på, at PVA-importen fra Japan i undersøgelsesperioden har underbudt EF-erhvervsgrenens priser, og derfor anses importen ikke for at have bidraget til den skade, der er forvoldt EF-erhvervsgrenen.
It was consequently concluded and it is maintained that there are no indications that Japanese imports of PVA, during the IP, have undercut the Community industry prices and, therefore, they are not considered to have contributed to the injury suffered by the Community industry.
Flere interesserede parter satte endvidere spørgsmålstegn ved, hvorledes importen fra Japan kunne opretholde en så omfattende markedsandel med så høje priser, hvis der var hård priskonkurrence på markedet i Fællesskabet.
It was also questioned by several interested parties how Japanese imports managed to maintain a strong market share with such high prices, if there was a fierce price competition on the Community market.
I den forbindelse bør det først bemærkes, jf. betragtning 83 ovenfor, at inddragelsen af andre, dyrere former for PVA sandsynligvis har oppustet Eurostats oplysninger om gennemsnitspriserne ved import fra Japan.
In this respect, it should first be noted, as mentioned in recital 83 above, that the inclusion of other and more expensive grades of PVA certainly has inflated the Eurostat average values of Japanese import prices.
Ud fra de efterprøvede data vedrørende ca. 25 % af den japanske import, synes gennemsnitsprisen på disse importerede varer til den første uafhængige kunde i Fællesskabet snarere at være 8-10 % højere end EF-erhvervsgrenens priser.
Based on verified data pertaining to around 25 % of Japanese imports, average prices of these imports to the first independent customer in the Community appear rather to be 8 to 10 % above the Community industry prices.
Dette er ikke et resultat af en nøjagtig sammenligning mellem identiske varer; det er derimod den sandsynlige og anslåede prisforskel mellem den gennemsnitlige salgspris for en del af importen fra Japan og den gennemsnitlige salgspris, som blev opnået af EF-erhvervsgrenen.
This is not the result of a precise comparison between identical grades; it is rather the likely and approximate price difference between the average sales prices of a part of Japanese imports and the average sales price obtained by the Community industry.
På denne baggrund er resultatet af analysen af priserne ved import fra Japan ikke i modstrid med konklusionen, at markedspriserne i Fællesskabet var særlig hårdt ramt, og påstanden afvises derfor.
On that basis, the result of the analysis of the Japanese import prices does not contradict the conclusion that market prices in the Community were indeed depressed, and the argument is dismissed.
En interesseret part påstod, at mængden af import fra Taiwan var steget fra 2003 til 2006, hvilket er i modsætning til Kommissionens konklusioner vedrørende et fald i markedsandelen, og at gennemsnitsprisen på disse importerede varer var steget mindre end anført i Kommissionens konklusioner.
One interested party claimed that the volumes of Taiwanese imports had increased from 2003 to 2006, contrary to the Commission’s findings of a market share decrease, and that the average prices of these imports increased less than what the Commission had found.
Denne påstand var baseret på en analyse af Eurostats data.
This claim was based on an analysis of Eurostat data.
I den forbindelse skal det, jf. betragtning 100 i forordningen om midlertidig told, bemærkes, at de reelle tal for den eneste producent fra Taiwan er blevet anvendt, da producenten samarbejdede fuldt ud i forbindelse med undersøgelsen.
In this respect, it should be noted that, as indicated in recital 100 of the provisional Regulation, the actual figures of the sole Taiwanese producer have been used as it fully cooperated in the investigation.
