Det skal i den forbindelse bemærkes, at selv om fortjenesten ganske vist forbedredes, viste undersøgelsen, at EU-erhvervsgrenen ikke var i stand til at nå målet om en fortjeneste på 6 %, jf. den oprindelige undersøgelse.
In this context it should be noted that while it holds true that the profitability levels have improved, the investigation has revealed that the Union industry has not been able to reach the target profit of 6 % as determined in the original investigation.
Man kunne have forventet en mere udtalt stigning i fortjenesten ikke mindst i betragtning af de bestræbelser, som en stor del af erhvervsgrenen lagde for dagen ved at skabe nye forretningsmodeller.
A more pronounced increase of profit levels would have been expected not the least when considering the effort of a large part of industry in moving into new business models.
Dette viser, at erhvervsgrenen stadig er i en udsat situation for så vidt angår rentabiliteten.
This shows that industry is still in a fragile situation from a profitability point of view.
Påstanden om, at rentabiliteten skulle være af et sådant omfang, at EU-erhvervsgrenen ikke længere påføres skade, må derfor afvises.
The argument that the profit levels would be such as to indicate that the Union industry no longer suffers injury must therefore be rejected.
Det fremgår af undersøgelsen, at små og mellemstore virksomheder, som er kernen i hele sektoren, på grund af deres udsatte økonomiske situation ikke er i stand til at stille tilstrækkelig bankgaranti og derfor har vanskeligt ved at rejse ny kapital.
The investigation has shown that SME's, which constitute essentially the whole sector, are not in a position, due to their still weak financial situation, to provide sufficient bank guarantees and have therefore difficulties to raise new capital.

Selv om der skete en stigning i investeringerne i den betragtede periode i absolutte tal, udgjorde den stadig kun 6 % af omsætningen i UP.
While investments did see an increase in the period considered, in absolute terms it still represented only 6 % of the turnover in the RIP.
Desuden påvirkes denne stigning af en række exceptionelle investeringer i bygninger, som blev foretaget af en af EU-producenterne i stikprøven.
In addition, this increment is influenced by exceptional investments made in buildings by one of the sampled Union producers.
Investeringerne ville ellers have været stabile i hele referenceperioden og på et lavt niveau.
Otherwise, the level of investment would be stable during the reference period and at low levels.
Dette skal dog igen ses på baggrund af en væsentlig forværring og lave investeringsniveauer i den oprindelige undersøgelse.
Again, this has to be seen in the light of a significant deterioration and low levels of investment in the original investigation.

De gennemsnitlige lønninger var stabile i den betragtede periode, hvilket antyder, at de reelle lønninger falder og ikke følger den normale lønudvikling.
Average wages have remained flat over the period considered, indicating that actual salaries are decreasing and not following the normal salary development.
Dette beviser yderligere det pres, der udøves på EU-producenterne.
This only further demonstrates the level of pressure exerted on Union producers
Det blev konstateret, at ikke alle faktorer i grundforordningen havde en direkte indvirkning på EU-erhvervsgrenen for fodtøj i forbindelse med fastsættelsen af skade, jf. ovenfor.
As seen from the above, not all factors listed in the basic Regulation were found to have a direct bearing on the state of the Union footwear industry for the determination of injury.
I betragtning af, at der kun produceres efter ordre, har virksomhederne enten ingen lagerbeholdninger, eller lagrene består af afsluttede ordrer, der endnu ikke er afsendt/faktureret, og det blev derfor konstateret, at lagrene kun havde begrænset indvirkning på skadesanalysen.
In particular, considering that production takes place on order, stocks are normally either not held or only consist of completed orders not yet delivered/invoiced and were therefore found to have very little meaning in the injury analysis.
Da sektoren ligeledes fortsat er arbejdskraftintensiv, er produktionskapaciteten ikke teknisk begrænset og afhænger især af antallet af ansatte i virksomheden.
Similarly, since the sector continues to remain labour intensive, the production capacity is not technically limited and mainly depends on the number of workers hired by the producers.
Analysen af de makroøkonomiske indikatorer, som indvirker mere direkte på EU-erhvervsgrenens situation, viser, at EU-produktionen og salgsmængden er faldet i omtrent samme takt som EU-forbruget i den betragtede periode.
The analysis of the macro indicators with a more direct bearing on the state of the Union industry shows that Union production as well as sales volume has decreased at approximately the same rate as Union consumption in the period considered.
EU-producenternes salg, markedsandel og beskæftigelse har således været stabile.
The sales, market share and employment of Union producers have thus remained stable.
Der er registreret en moderat nedgang i produktiviteten.
Productivity has seen a decrease but only moderately.
Selv om man kunne have forventet, at overgangen til en ny forretningsmodel ville have medført en stigning i de resterende EU-producenters salg og produktion, er det dog også klart, at der med indførelsen af foranstaltningerne er sat en stopper for det frie fald, som erhvervsgrenen led under før indførelsen af foranstaltningerne.
Overall, while it would have been expected that the move to a new business model would have enabled an increase in sales and production of the Union producers that remain it is also clear that the economic free fall that industry was suffering before the imposition of the measure has been halted since the imposition of measures.
Dermed har en stor del af EU-erhvervsgrenen desuden været i stand til at ændre forretningsmodel ved hjælp af en strømlining af produktionsprocessen med udvikling af specialiserede klynger, ved at flytte til et højere varesegment samt ved at ændre fokus fra engrossalg til direkte levering til detailhandlere.
This has also allowed a large part of the Union industry to change business model by way of streamlining production processes through the development of specialised clusters, moving up in the product segment as well as changing focus from wholesale distribution to direct supply to retail.
Analysen af de relevante mikroøkonomiske indikatorer underbygger også den delvise genrejsning i EU-erhvervsgrenen og viser en stigning i salgspriserne, likviditeten, investeringerne og fortjenesten.
An analysis of the relevant micro indicators also supports the partial recovery of the Union industry showing an increase in sales prices, cash-flow investment, and profit.
Erhvervsgrenen har dog stadig ikke været i stand til at opnå normal fortjeneste og normale investeringer og har stadig vanskeligt ved at rejse kapital, og desuden viser lønudviklingen, at situationen stadig er sårbar, og at skaden ikke er helt overvundet.
The industry has however still not been able to recover to normal profit and investment levels and have still problems in raising capital and in salary development showing that the situation is still fragile and that injury has not been totally removed.
Generelt viste undersøgelsen, at EU-erhvervsgrenen fortsat påføres væsentlig skade.
Overall, the investigation has revealed that the Union industry continues to suffer material injury.
VIRKNINGERNE AF DUMPINGIMPORTEN FRA DE PÅGÆLDENDE LANDE OG VIRKNINGERNE AF ANDRE FAKTORER
IMPACT OF DUMPED IMPORTS FROM THE COUNTRIES CONCERNED AND IMPACT OF OTHER FACTORS
Virkningen af dumpingimporterede varer fra de pågældende lande
Impact of imports of dumped products from the countries concerned
Selv om den samlede importmængde fra de pågældende lande er faldet i den betragtede periode, er mængderne i undersøgelsesperioden stadig langt højere end i den oprindelige undersøgelse.
While the combined import volumes from the countries concerned have seen a decrease in the period considered, the volumes in the RIP still far exceed those in the original investigation.
For Kinas vedkommende er importen næsten dobbelt så stor som i den oprindelige undersøgelsesperiode, og selv om importmængden fra Vietnam faldt i samme periode, er den tilsvarende markedsandel stadig omkring 10 %.
In the case of China the levels are almost twice of those seen in the OIP and while import volumes of Vietnam have decreased in the same period, their presence on the market is still significant with a market share of around 10 %.
En analyse af prisen på importen fra de pågældende lande i den betragtede periode viser, at priserne på importen fra Kina har været stabile, mens priserne på importen fra Vietnam er faldet.
An analysis of the prices of imports from the countries concerned in the period considered, shows that prices of Chinese imports have remained stable while Vietnamese prices have decreased.
Priserne på den kinesiske import er i forhold til priserne i den oprindelige undersøgelsesperiode steget med ca. 20 %, men priserne på den vietnamesiske import ligger tæt op ad priserne i den oprindelige undersøgelsesperiode.
When compared to prices in the OIP, Chinese prices have increased by around 20 % but prices of the Vietnamese are close to those found in the OIP.
Til trods for forskelle i produktmikset og betragtningerne om handelsled er det klart, at de gennemsnitlige importpriser på 8,6 EUR for Kina og 9,51 EUR for Vietnam fortsat volder EU-producenterne alvorlige problemer, da deres gennemsnitlige salgspriser er langt over 30 EUR. Dette er endnu mere udtalt i forbindelse med underbudsniveauet, som er steget drastisk i forhold til den oprindelige undersøgelsesperiode.
Notwithstanding differences in product mix and level of trade considerations, it is clear that average imports prices of EUR 8,6 for the PRC and EUR 9,51 from Vietnam continue to cause major concern to the Union producers whose average sales prices are well above EUR 30. This becomes even more evident when looking at the undercutting levels that have seen a drastic increase when compared to the OIP.
Kinas underbudsniveau er steget fra 13,5 % til 31,9 % i denne periode, og for Vietnams vedkommende er underbuddet steget fra 15,9 % til 38,9 %.
For China undercutting levels have increased from 13,5 % to 31,9 % in this period and for Vietnam the equivalent increase is from 15,9 % to 38,9 %.
Konklusion om virkningen af dumpingimporterede varer fra de pågældende lande
Conclusion on the impact of imports of dumped products from the countries concerned
Ud fra ovenstående konkluderes det, at importen fra de pågældende lande både i form af mængde og priser fortsat påvirker EU-producenternes resultater negativt.
On the basis of the above it must be concluded that imports from the countries concerned both in terms of volume and price, continues to adversely affect the performance of Union producers.
Kommissionen undersøgte nøje, om andre kendte faktorer end dumpingimporten kunne have en indvirkning på den fortsatte skade, som påføres EU-producenterne, med henblik på at sikre, at eventuel skade forårsaget af disse faktorer ikke blev tilskrevet dumpingimporten.
The Commission thoroughly analysed whether any other known factors than the dumped imports could have had a bearing on the continued injury suffered by the Union producers in order to ensure that possible injury caused by any such factors was not attributed to the dumped imports.
Manglende konkurrence mellem EU-producerede sko og sko importeret fra de pågældende lande
Lack of competition between the Union-produced shoes and those imported from the countries concerned
En række interesserede parter påstod, at der ikke er nogen sammenhæng mellem importen fra de pågældende lande og EU-erhvervsgrenens resultater.
Some interested parties maintained that there is no link between imports form the countries concerned and the performance of the Union industry.
Det blev navnlig påstået, at den samme vare produceret i Unionen ikke kan erstattes af den samme vare importeret fra de pågældende lande.
In particular it was held that there was no substitution between the like product produced in the Union and the product concerned.
Ifølge parterne er der ingen konkurrence mellem EU-producerede lædersko og sko importeret fra Kina og Vietnam, da de EU-producerede lædersko fortrinsvis sælges i det mellemste segment og det dyreste segment, mens de importerede sko hovedsagelig er beregnet til det mellemste segmentet og det billigste segment.
According to these parties there is no competition between Union produced leather shoes and those imported from China and Vietnam as the former tend to operate in the mid to high end market segment while the latter is mainly destined for the mid to low end segment.
EU-erhvervsgrenen var ikke i stand til at generhverve markedsandele efter indførelsen af foranstaltningerne, hvilket blev anført som bevis i denne sammenhæng.
The fact that the Union industry was not able to regain market share following the imposition of the measures was held forward as evidence in this regard.
Den generelle forbedring i de øvrige skadesindikatorer skulle derimod være en konsekvens af EU-erhvervsgrenens ændrede forretningsmodel, hvorved en lavere produktion og et skift til produktion med højere merværdi afbødede den skade, der tidligere påførtes en del af EU-erhvervsgrenen.
The general improvement as concern the other injury indicators would instead be the consequence of the change in business model by the Union industry whereby a reduction of production and shift towards higher value added production mitigated the injury previously suffered for part of the Union industry.
De vanskeligheder, som den anden gruppe af EU-producenter stødte på, skulle angiveligt skyldes, at de ikke var i stand til at tilpasse sig dumpingimporten fra de pågældende lande.
The difficulties experienced by the other group of Union producers was held to be caused by the failure to adapt rather than to dumped imports from the countries concerned.
Undersøgelsen har vist, at en del af EU-erhvervsgrenen stadig er til stede i dele af det laveste segment og store dele af det mellemste segmentet, selv om denne del af erhvervsgrenen også har bevæget sig til et højere markedssegment.
The investigation has shown that although part of the Union industry has also been moving upmarket, it still occupies some parts of the low bracket and large parts of the medium segment.
Hvad angår dumpingimporten, dækker den ikke blot det lave segment, men også det mellemste segment — og i visse tilfælde endda det højeste markedssegment.
When looking at the dumped imports, these cover not only the low segment, but also the medium segment—and in some cases, even the higher segment.
Der er med andre ord omfattende konkurrence mellem lædersko produceret i Unionen og lædersko importeret fra de pågældende lande.
There is in other words substantial competition between the leather shoes produced in the Union and those imported from the countries concerned.
Det blev desuden påstået, at der ikke var konkurrence mellem EU-producenterne og de pågældende eksportører, da EU-producenterne koncentrerer sig om nicheprodukter og ikke tilbyder et helt sortiment med specialsko som f.eks. vandresko, bowlingsko og ortopædiske sko.
There had also been claims that there was no competition between the Union producers and the exporters concerned as the Union producers are concentrated on niche products and do not supply a full range of speciality shoes such as hiking, bowling, and orthopaedic shoes.
Det skal dog i den forbindelse bemærkes, at disse specialsko kun udgør en lille del af den pågældende vare, og virkningen heraf kan derfor ikke betegnes som væsentlig.
In this context it should however be noted that these speciality shoes only form as small part of the product concerned and the impact can therefore not be significant.
Undersøgelsen har under alle omstændigheder vist, at disse specialsko – i modsætning til påstanden – produceres i Unionen om end i begrænsede mængder, og at disse sko er i direkte konkurrence med importerede specialsko.
In any event, the investigation has shown that contrary to the claim, these speciality shoes are produced in the Union albeit in limited quantities and these are in direct competition with the imported speciality shoes.
Der er desuden, jf. ovenfor, en øget konkurrence mellem mange af disse specialsko og klassiske »brune sko«, som traditionelt produceres af EU-erhvervsgrenen.
Furthermore and as detailed above, there is now an increase in competition between many of these speciality shoes and the classical ‘brown shoe’ traditionally produced by the Union industry.
Hvad angår sammenligningen mellem EU-produktionen og importen fra de pågældende lande pr. alder og køn, har undersøgelsen vist, at der i Unionen findes en omfattende produktion af herre-, dame- og børnesko.
As concerns the comparison of Union production and imports from the countries concerned as per the age and gender, the investigation showed that there is substantial production in the Union of men, women and children's shoes.
Der satses især på damesko, som udgør ca. 55 % af produktionen, mens herre- og børnesko udgør henholdsvis 35 % og 10 %.
The focus would be on women's shoes making up around 55 % of production while men and children's shoes would be 35 % and 10 % respectively.
Når man ser på alders- og kønsfordelingen for sko, der importeres fra de pågældende lande, er tallene ganske anderledes med fokus på især børnesko med ca. 25 %.
When looking at the breakdown in age and gender for shoes imported from the countries concerned the figures would be different with higher focus on in particular children shoes at around 25 %.
Til trods for disse udsving er det klart, at alle tre kategorier sælges på EU-markedet i væsentlige mængder af både EU-erhvervsgrenen og af eksportørerne.
Notwithstanding these variations, it is clear that all three categories are sold in the Union market in significant quantities by the Union industry as well as by exporters.
EU-producenternes manglende effektivitet, strukturelle mangler og virkningen af globaliseringen
Lack of efficiency of Union producers, structural deficiencies and impact of globalisation
En part, der repræsenterer forbrugerinteresser, fremførte, at den påståede dumping ikke havde nogen indvirkning på EU-erhvervsgrenens situation, men at globaliseringstendensen og udflytningen af produktionen til lande med lavere omkostninger og ikke illoyal handelspraksis er grunden til jobtab og fabrikslukninger i Unionen.
One party, representing Consumer interests maintained that the alleged dumping has had no impact on the situation of the Union industry but that the trend of globalisation and the shifting of production to lower cost countries rather than unfair trade lays at the heart of job losses and factory closures in the Union.
En række andre interesserede parter påpegede desuden, at EU-erhvervsgrenen ikke var i stand til at udnytte foranstaltningerne og virkningen af skiftet i forretningsmodel blandt EU-producenterne som bevis for påstanden om, at der ikke er nogen forbindelse mellem importen og EU-erhvervsgrenens resultater.
Several other interested parties also pointed out the inability of the Union industry to benefit from the measures and the effect of the change in business model amongst Union producers as evidence in support of the claim that there is no link between imports and the Union industry performance.
Ifølge disse påstande er EU-erhvervsgrenen strukturelt ude af stand til at konkurrere på masseproduktionsmarkedet, hvilket overvejende skyldes manglen på den nødvendige arbejdskraft og omkostningerne dertil.
According to these claims, the Union industry is structurally incapable to compete in the mass production market largely due to lack of the necessary labour force and the cost thereof.
Derfor skiftede en betydelig del af EU-erhvervsgrenen til en ny forretningsmodel og investerede i produktinnovation og opgradering for at flytte fokus fra det mellemste og laveste varesegment til mellemste og højeste varesegment og luksusvaresegmentet.
As a consequence, a significant part of the Union industry has moved to a new business model and have invested in product innovation and upgrading so as to move focus from mid- to low-end product segment to the mid- to high-end and luxury segment.
De virksomheder, der har fokuseret på nicheprodukter med højere merværdi, fremviser også gode resultater.
These companies that have focused on niche products with higher added value are also showing a good level of performance.
Modsat har de virksomheder, der ikke tog globaliseringens udfordring op, fortsat dårlige resultater.
Conversely, those companies that have failed to respond to globalisation are continuing to demonstrate poor results.
Ifølge disse påstande bør EU-producenternes situation altså betragtes som en konsekvens af deres forretningsstrategi og skyldes ikke importen fra de pågældende lande.
According to this line of argument, the situation of the Union producers should thus be considered to be the consequence of their business strategy and is not linked to imports from the countries concerned.
Som det fremgår af afsnit E.2 og G.4, viste undersøgelsen ganske rigtigt et heterogent billede af EU-erhvervsgrenen.
As seen above in section E.2 and G.4 the investigation has indeed revealed a heterogeneous picture of the Union industry.
Dele af erhvervsgrenen producerer ikke-mærkevarefodtøj i det mellemste segmentet og det laveste segment og sælger via grossister og ikke direkte til detailhandlere.
Parts of the industry are producing unbranded footwear in the mid- to low-end of the product segment and are selling through wholesalers rather than directly to retail.
Dette betyder dog ikke, at disse virksomheder ikke er effektive.
But this does not mean that these companies are inefficient by nature.
Det fremgår klart af undersøgelsen, at virksomhedernes vanskelige situation uanset deres konkurrencemæssige situation i alt væsentligt skyldes dumpingimporten.
What is clear from the investigation is that, irrespective of their competitive position, their difficult situation is being materially caused by dumped imports.
De befinder sig derfor i en yderst vanskelig økonomisk situation, og deres resultater er blevet voldsomt forværret i løbet af den betragtede periode.
As a consequence they are in an extremely difficult financial situation and their state has deteriorated sharply during the period considered.
Mange af disse virksomheder bestræber sig på at omstille sig til det mellemste segment og det dyreste varesegment og på at ændre deres distributionskanaler, men det aktuelle pres fra dumpingimporten gør denne udvikling yderst vanskelig.
Many of these companies are making efforts to reorient to the mid- to high-end segment and to change distribution channels but the current pressure cause by dumped imports makes this development extremely difficult.
Til trods for deres markante forbedring og tilpasning af forretningsmodeller har de virksomheder, der skiftede forretningsmodel ikke nået det mål om en fortjeneste på 6 %, som blev fastlagt i den oprindelige undersøgelse.
Notwithstanding their marked improvement and adaptation of business model, those companies that have redefined business model do not reach the target profits of 6 % as established in the original investigation.
Dette viser, at denne gruppe også er påvirket af det generelle pres i nedadgående retning, som udøves af dumpingimporten i samtlige segmenter.
This shows that also this group is affected by the overall downward pressure exerted across all segments as a consequence of the dumped imports.
Det er derfor sandsynligt, at denne gruppe ville have været i stand til at genrejse sig fuldstændigt, hvis de ikke var blevet udsat for et prispres i nedadgående retning som følge af fortsat (og endda øget) dumpingimport af læderfodtøj.
It is therefore likely that this group would have been able to recover fully had they not been faced with the downward pressure on price caused by continued (and even increased) imports of dumped leather footwear.
