Det konkluderes derfor, at den skade, der er forvoldt EF-erhvervsgrenen, ikke alene kan tilskrives denne EF-producent.
Thus, it is concluded that the injury suffered by the Community industry cannot be attributed solely to this Community producer.
På baggrund af ovenstående konkluderes det derfor, at EF-erhvervsgrenen har lidt væsentlig skade, jf. grundforordningens artikel 3, stk. 5.
In the light of the foregoing, it is concluded that the Community industry has suffered material injury within the meaning of Article 3(5) of the basic Regulation.
Mellem 2002 og undersøgelsesperioden steg dumpingimporten af den pågældende vare med oprindelse i Kina og Kasakhstan med 99 %, og dens markedsandel i Fællesskabet steg med ca. 4,6 procentpoint.
Between 2002 and the IP, the volume of the dumped imports of the product concerned originating in the PRC and Kazakhstan increased by 99 % and their share of the Community market increased by around 4,6 percentage points.
Gennemsnitsprisen for denne import steg med 22 % mellem 2002 og undersøgelsesperioden, men var generelt lavere end EF-erhvervsgrenens priser i den betragtede periode.
The average price of these imports increased by 22 % between 2002 and the IP, but prices were generally lower than those of the Community industry during the period considered.
I samme periode steg dumpingimporten af den pågældende vare med oprindelse i Ukraine udtrykt i mængde, nemlig med 36 %, og dens markedsandel i Fællesskabet steg med ca. 4,5 procentpoint.
Over the same period, the volume of the dumped imports of the product concerned originating in Ukraine increased by 36 % and their share of the Community market increased by around 4,5 percentage points.
Gennemsnitsprisen for denne import steg med 8 % mellem 2002 og undersøgelsesperioden, men priserne var generelt på samme niveau som EF-erhvervsgrenens priser i den betragtede periode.
The average price of these imports increased by 8 % between 2002 and the IP, but prices were generally at levels close to those of the Community industry during the period considered.
Som nævnt i betragtning 104 var prisunderbuddet for importen fra Kina og Kasakhstan samlet på 4,5 % på basis af et vejet gennemsnit, mens der ikke var prisunderbud for importen fra Ukraine.
As indicated in recital 104 above, price undercutting of imports from the PRC and Kazakhstan was 4,5 % overall on a weighted average basis, while there was no undercutting by imports from Ukraine.
Da EF-erhvervsgrenens priser er underbudt af importen fra Kina og Kasakhstan, finder Kommissionen, at denne dumpingimport medførte et negativt pres på priserne, som forhindrede EF-erhvervsgrenen i at hæve sine salgspriser til det niveau, der var nødvendigt for en bæredygtig indtjening.
In view of the undercutting of Community industry's prices by imports from the PRC and Kazakhstan, it is considered that these dumped imports exerted a downward pressure on the prices, preventing the Community industry from increasing its sales prices to a level that would have been necessary to realise a sustainable profit.
Der er derfor en klar årsagssammenhæng mellem denne import og den skade, EF-erhvervsgrenen har lidt.
Therefore, there is a clear causal link between those imports and the Community industry's injury.
I betragtning af, at der ikke har fundet underbud sted for importen fra Ukraine, og af, at skadesmargenen for importen fra Ukraine er under bagatelgrænsen (jf. betragtning 168 og 169), finder Kommissionen dog, at der ikke er nogen klar årsagssammenhæng mellem importen fra Ukraine og den skade, EF-erhvervsgrenen har lidt.
On the other hand, in view of the absence of undercutting by imports from the Ukraine and the fact that the injury margin for Ukraine is at a de minimis level (see recitals 168 and 169), it is considered that there is no clear causal link between imports from Ukraine and the injury to the Community industry.
Som det ses af nedenstående tabel, faldt eksportsalgsmængden med 40 % i den betragtede periode.
As can be seen from the table below, the volume of export sales decreased by 40 % during the period considered.
Enhedspriserne for disse salg forblev relativt stabile undtagen i 2004.
The unit price of these sales remained relatively stable, with the exception of those during 2004.

Det bør imidlertid bemærkes, at eksportsalget ikke er stort set i forhold til EF-erhvervsgrenens samlede salg, idet det kun repræsenterer 3-7 % af det samlede salg i den betragtede periode.
It should be noted, however, that the level of export sales is not significant in the context of the Community industry's overall sales, representing only around 3 % to 7 % of total sales during the period considered.
Kommissionen finder derfor, at eksportaktiviteten ikke på nogen måde kan have bidraget til den væsentlige skade, som EF-erhvervsgrenen har lidt.
It is therefore considered that the export activity cannot have contributed in any way to the material injury suffered by the Community industry.
Analysen af importen fra tredjelande er baseret på data fra Eurostat.
The analysis of imports from third countries is based on data from Eurostat.
For en række landes vedkommende var det muligt at krydskontrollere disse data med bekræftede oplysninger fra interesserede parter, som har bekræftet pålideligheden af Eurostats data.
For a number of countries it was possible to cross-check this data with verified information provided by interested parties, which confirmed the reliability of Eurostat data.
Den samlede import fra andre end de berørte lande faldt i løbet af den betragtede periode med ca. 6 %, dvs. fra ca. 377000 t i 2002 til ca. 354000 t i undersøgelsesperioden.
Overall imports from all countries, other than the countries concerned, decreased over the period considered by around 6 %, i.e. from around 377000 tonnes in 2002 to around 354000 tonnes in the IP.
Den hertil svarende markedsandel faldt fra ca. 45 % til ca. 39 %.
The corresponding market share declined from around 45 % to around 39 %.
Importen fra tredjelande kommer hovedsagelig fra Norge, Indien, Sydafrika og Brasilien.
The main sources of imports from third countries are Norway, India, South Africa and Brazil.

I den betragtede periode faldt importen fra Norge med 11 %, og markedsandelen for denne import faldt med 4,9 procentpoint (UP = 21,9 %).
Imports from Norway decreased by around 11 %, and the market share of those imports decreased by 4,9 percentage points (IP = 21,9 %), during the period considered.
Samlet set lå gennemsnitspriserne for importen fra Norge over EF-erhvervsgrenens priser i den betragtede periode.
Overall, the average price of imports from Norway was above that of the Community industry throughout the period considered.
Mens prisen for importen af siliciummangan fra Norge med lavt kulstofindhold i en vis udstrækning kan underbyde EF-erhvervsgrenens priser, konkluderedes det — i betragtning af at denne varekvalitet kun udgør en lille del (ca. 5 %) af EF-erhvervsgrenens samlede produktion, og i betragtning af at der samlet set ikke har været tale om underbud og, at der er konstateret faldende importmængder og markedsandele — at importen fra Norge ikke har bidraget til den væsentlige skade, EF-erhvervsgrenen har lidt.
While the price of low-carbon imports from Norway may undercut Community industry prices to some extent, given that this quality of product only represents a small part (roughly 5 %) of the total production of the Community industry, and in view of the absence of overall undercutting and the decrease in both import volumes and market share, it was considered that imports from Norway did not contribute to the material injury suffered by the Community industry.

I den betragtede periode steg importen fra Indien med 300 %, og markedsandelen for denne import steg med 7,3 procentpoint (UP = 9,7 %).
Imports from India increased by over 300 %, and the market share of those imports increased by 7,3 percentage points (IP = 9,7 %), during the period considered.
Samtidig var gennemsnitsprisen for importen fra Indien lidt højere end for EF-erhvervsgrenen (dvs. intet prisunderbud).
At the same time the average price of imports from India was slightly higher than those of the Community industry (i.e. no undercutting).
I betragtning af, at der ikke har fundet underbud sted for importen fra Indien, finder Kommissionen, at der ikke er belæg for at konkludere, at importen fra Indien har bidraget til den skade, EF-erhvervsgrenen har lidt.
In view of the absence of undercutting by imports from India, it is considered that there is no clear evidence that imports from India contributed to the injury suffered by the Community industry.
I den betragtede periode faldt importen fra Sydafrika med ca. 38 %, og markedsandelen for denne import faldt med 2,5 procentpoint (UP = 3,2 %).
Imports from South Africa decreased by around 38 %, and the market share of those imports decreased by 2,5 percentage points (IP = 3,2 %) during the period considered.
Gennemsnitsprisen for importen fra Sydafrika var under EF-erhvervsgrenens priser og af samme størrelsesorden som de berørte landes.
The average price of imports from South Africa was below that of the Community industry and similar to that practiced by the countries concerned.
Der drages derfor den konklusion, at importen fra Sydafrika kan have bidraget til den skade, der er påført EF-erhvervsgrenen.
It is therefore considered that imports from South Africa may have contributed to the injury suffered by the Community industry.
På baggrund af det betragtelige samlede fald i importen fra Sydafrika og dens beskedne markedsandel, finder Kommissionen ikke, at denne import er tilstrækkelig til at bryde årsagssammenhængen mellem den væsentlige skade, EF-erhvervsgrenen har lidt, og dumpingimporten fra Kina og Kasakhstan.
However, given the significant overall decrease in imports from South Africa and their small market share, it is considered not sufficient to break the causal link between the material injury suffered by the Community industry and dumped imports from the PRC and Kazakhstan.

I den betragtede periode faldt importen fra andre tredjelande, herunder Brasilien, med ca. 59 %, og markedsandelen for denne import faldt med ca. 6,4 procentpoint (UP = 3,8 %).
Imports from other third countries, including Brazil, decreased by around 59 %, and the market share of those imports decreased by around 6,4 percentage points (IP = 3,8 %), during the period considered.
Samtidig var gennemsnitsprisen for importen fra andre tredjelande højere end for EF-erhvervsgrenens varer (dvs. intet prisunderbud).
At the same time, the average price of imports from other third countries was higher than that of the Community industry (i.e. no undercutting).
I betragtning af, at der ikke har fundet underbud sted for denne imports vedkommende og i betragtning af deres aftagende tendens, konkluderes det, at den ikke har bidraget til den væsentlige skade, EF-erhvervsgrenen har lidt.
In view of the absence of undercutting by those imports and their decreasing trend, it is considered that they did not contribute to the material injury suffered by the Community industry.

Konkurrence fra den resterende EF-producent
Competition from the other Community producer
Som nævnt i betragtning 91 samarbejdede en enkelt EF-producent ikke i forbindelse med undersøgelsen.
As indicated in recital 91 above, one Community producer did not cooperate with the investigation.
På grundlag af de oplysninger, der er indhentet i løbet af undersøgelsen fra de samarbejdende EF-producenter, skønnes denne virksomheds salgsmængde i Fællesskabet til 30000 t i den betragtede periode.
Based on information obtained in the course of the investigation from cooperating Community producers, it is estimated that its sales volume in the Community was around 30000 tonnes throughout the period considered.
Den hertil svarende markedsandel lå ligeledes på 3 % i hele den betragtede periode.
Similarly, the corresponding market share was stable throughout the period considered at around 3 %.
Den resterende EF-producent forøgede derfor ikke sin salgsmængde og markedsandel på bekostning af EF-erhvervsgrenen.
The other Community producer therefore did not gain any sales volume and market share at the expense of the Community industry.
Der forelå ingen oplysninger om priserne hos denne EF-producent.
No information was available concerning the prices of this Community producer.
Kilde: Undersøgelse, klage.
Source: Investigation, complaint.

I betragtning af ovennævnte og de manglende oplysninger om det modsatte konkluderes det, at den resterende EF-producent ikke har bidraget til den skade, som EF-erhvervsgrenen har lidt.
Given the above, and given the absence of information to the contrary, it is concluded that the other Community producer has not contributed to the injury suffered by the Community industry.
Produktionsomkostninger (råstoffer)
Cost of production (raw materials)
Hovedelementerne i de samlede produktionsomkostninger er råstofferne (45-55 %) og elektricitet (20-30 %).
The main elements in the total cost of production are raw materials (around 45 % to 55 %) and electricity (around 20 % to 30 %).
De direkte lønomkostninger udgør ca. 5 % af omkostningerne.
Direct labour accounts for around 5 % of costs.
EF-erhvervsgrenens produktionsomkostninger steg med 12 % mellem 2002 og undersøgelsesperioden.
The cost of production of the Community industry increased by 12 % between 2002 and the IP.
Enhedsproduktionsomkostninger (EUR/t)
Unit cost of production (EUR/tonne)
Nogle interesserede parter hævdede, at den skade, EF-erhvervsgrenen har lidt, skyldtes stigningerne i produktionsomkostningerne.
Some interested parties claimed that the injury suffered by the Community industry was attributable to the increases in the cost of production.
Hvad angår råstofomkostningerne, finder Kommissionen, at prisstigningerne — da det drejer sig om råstoffer, der i princippet handles på de internationale markeder — har påvirket alle producenter af siliciummangan, idet disse under normale omstændigheder vil være tvunget til at hæve alle deres priser.
In respect of raw material costs, since these are generally commodity products which, in principle, are traded on the international market, it is considered that the price increase has affected all producers of SiMn, which would normally be forced to increase their sales prices across the board.
Skaden er således ikke forårsaget af den generelle stigning i råmaterialepriser som sådan, men af den omstædighed, at EF-erhvervsgrenen på grund af dumpingimporten, som underbød dens priser, ikke var i stand til at sælge på et prisniveau, der ville have gjort det muligt for den at opnå en tilstrækkelig fortjenstmargen.
The injury was thus not caused by the general increase in raw material prices as such but by the fact that, due to the dumped imports which were undercutting the Community industry's prices, the Community industry was unable to sell at a level that would have allowed it to realise a sufficient profit margin.
Hvad angår lønomkostninger, viser produktivitetsdataene som angivet i betragtning 115, at EF-erhvervsgrenen samlet set har været i stand til at kompensere for stigende omkostninger med effektivitets- og produktivitetsforøgelser.
As for labour costs, as indicated in recital 115 above, data concerning productivity show that, overall, the Community industry has managed to offset increases in costs with increases in efficiency and productivity.
Nogle parter har henvist til elektricitetsomkostningerne som den vigtigste årsag til, at EF-erhvervsgrenen har lidt skade.
Some parties referred to electricity costs as the main reason why Community industry would have suffered injury.
I denne forbindelse er det fastslået, at elektricitetspriserne for industrielle brugere i de lande, hvor EF-erhvervsgrenen er etableret, lå på linje med priserne på andre større markeder på verdensplan og derfor ikke kan betragtes som et tilfælde af selvforskyldt skade.
In this respect, it was established that the electricity prices for the industrial users in the countries where the Community industry is based were in line with the prices in other major markets in the world and consequently may not be considered as a source of a self-inflicted injury.
Elektricitetsomkostningerne kan have haft en vis virkning på de samlede resultater, men kun hvad angår en EF-producent, som oplevede vanskeligheder i elektricitetsforsyningen på grund af store prisstigninger på elektricitet og den deraf følgende tvist med energileverandøren.
The electricity costs may have had some impact on the overall performance, but only in the case of one Community producer that experienced shortages of the electricity supply due to important increases in the electricity prices and the related dispute with the energy supplier.
Det konkluderes, at stigningerne i produktionsomkostningerne samlet set ikke har bidraget til den skade, EF-erhvervsgrenen har lidt.
It is concluded that, overall, increases in the cost of production have not contributed to the injury suffered by the Community industry.
Selvforskyldt skade
Self-inflicted injury
Da en af EF-producenternes investeringer steg betragteligt mellem 2004 og 2005 (jf. betragtning 121), undersøgtes det, om skaden var selvforskyldt.
As the investment of one Community producer increased significantly between 2004 and the 2005 (see recital 121), it was examined if the injury was self-inflicted.
Denne investering havde direkte indvirkning på produktionsomkostningerne og derfor på EF-erhvervsgrenens rentabilitet.
This investment had a direct impact on the cost of production and therefore the profitability of the Community industry.
Analysen har imidlertid vist, at denne investerings begrænsede omfang i forhold til de samlede produktionsomkostninger var begrænset, og dens indvirkning på rentabiliteten var derfor marginal.
However, the analysis has shown that due to limited weight of this investment in the total cost of production, the impact on the profitability was marginal.
Det konkluderes derfor, at EF-producentens investering kan have bidraget til den skade, EF-erhvervsgrenen har lidt, men ikke i et omfang, der kan bryde årsagssammenhængen.
Therefore, it is concluded that the investment of one Community producer may have contributed to the injury suffered by the Community industry but not to an extent to break the causal link.
Afmatning på markedet for siliciummangan på grund af uregelmæssigheder i stålproduktionen
Downturn in the market for silico-manganese due to the cycle in steel production
Nogle parter har fremført, at faldet i efterspørgslen på stål og det deraf følgende fald i efterspørgslen på siliciummangan i anden halvdel af 2004 og første halvdel af 2005 efterfulgt af den i betragtning 89 beskrevne hidtil usete stigning i efterspørgslen bidrog til EF-erhvervsgrenens dårlige situation.
Some parties claimed that the drop in the demand for steel, and the consequent drop in demand for SiMn, which occurred during the second half of 2004 and the first half of 2005, following the unprecedented increase in demand described in recital 89, contributed to the bad state of the Community industry.
Undersøgelsen har imidlertid vist, at EF-forbruget samlet steg med 9 % i hele den betragtede periode.
However, the investigation has shown that over the full period considered Community consumption increased overall by 9 %.
På denne baggrund må påstanden afvises.
In view of this, the argument is rejected.
Det tidsmæssige sammenfald mellem øget dumpingimport fra Kina og Kasakhstan, større markedsandele og det konstaterede prisunderbud på den ene side og forringelsen af EF-erhvervsgrenens situation på den anden fører til den konklusion, at dumpingimporten forårsagede den væsentlige skade, der er forvoldt EF-erhvervsgrenen, jf. grundforordningens artikel 3, stk. 6.
The coincidence in time between, on the one hand, the increase in dumped imports from the PRC and Kazakhstan, the increase in market shares and the undercutting found and, on the other hand, the deterioration in the situation of the Community industry, leads to the conclusion that the dumped imports caused the material injury suffered by the Community industry within the meaning of Article 3(6) of the basic Regulation.
Andre faktorer blev analyseret, men blev ikke fundet at være en afgørende årsag til den forvoldte skade.
Other factors were analysed but were found not to be a determining reason for the injury suffered.
For Ukraines vedkommende, som har en markedsandel på 2,3 %, konkluderes det, at importen herfra ikke har bidraget til den skade, EF-erhvervsgrenen har lidt, da der ikke har fundet et generelt prisunderbud sted.
As concerns Ukraine, which represents 23 % of market share, since there is no undercutting overall, it is considered that its imports did not contribute to the injury of the Community industry.
Importen fra Sydafrika kan have bidraget til den skade, EF-erhvervsgrenen har lidt, men i betragtning af den beskedne markedsandel for denne import og dens faldende mængder er den ikke tilstrækkelig til at bryde den etablerede årsagssammenhæng med importen fra Kina og Kasakhstan.
Imports from South Africa may have contributed to the injury suffered by the Community industry, but given their small market share and declining volumes not to an extent sufficient to break the causal link established with the imports from the PRC and Kazakhstan.
Da der ikke har fundet underbud sted, og i betragtning af importmængderne og tendenserne, er der ikke belæg for, at importen fra Indien eller andre tredjelande (herunder Brasilien) har bidraget til den skade, EF-erhvervsgrenen har lidt.
Due to the lack of undercutting, the import volumes and trend figures, there is also no evidence that imports from India or other third counties (including Brazil) have contributed to the injury suffered by the Community industry.
En investering foretaget af en enkelt EF-producent kan have bidraget til den skade, EF-erhvervsgrenen har lidt, men på grund af det begrænsede omfang af denne investering er den ikke tilstrækkelig til at bryde den etablerede årsagssammenhæng.
The investment of one Community producer may have contributed to the injury suffered by the Community industry; however, due to limited weight of this investment, not to an extent to break the causal link.
Desuden er der ingen andre kendte faktorer, såsom EF-erhvervsgrenens eksportresultater, konkurrencen fra den resterende EF-producent, stigningen i produktionsomkostningerne eller forholdene på stålmarkedet, der har bidraget til den skade, EF-erhvervsgrenen har lidt.
Moreover, no other known factor, i.e. the export performance of the Community industry, competition from the other Community producer, the increase in cost of production or the market cycle for steel, has contributed to the injury of the Community industry.
