EU-erhvervsgrenens produktionskapacitet forblev stabil i denne periode.
The production capacity of the Union industry remained stable during this period.
Kapacitetsudnyttelsen steg med 8 % i den betragtede periode og nåede dermed fuld kapacitet.
Capacity utilisation increased by 8 % during the period considered, as such reaching full capacity.
EU-erhvervsgrenen producerede fra 2006 og fremover over sin teoretisk installerede kapacitet.
The Union industry was from 2006 onwards producing above its theoretical installed capacity.

Lagrene faldt med 50 % i den betragtede periode, hvilket skyldtes stor efterspørgsel i denne periode, navnlig i undersøgelsesperioden, og at EU-erhvervsgrenen ikke havde tilstrækkelig kapacitet til at forsyne EU-markedet.
Stocks decreased by 50 % during the period considered which was due to the high demand during this period, in particular during the RIP, and the Union industry’s insufficient capacity to supply the Union market.
Derfor blev lagrene hele tiden reduceret.
As a consequence, stocks were continuously reduced.

EU-erhvervsgrenens salgsmængder blev øget med 51 % fra 2005 til 2006 og var på det højeste i 2006, men faldt støt derefter.
The Union industry sales volume increased by 51 % from 2005 to 2006, reaching a peak in 2006, but then continuously decreased.
Samtidig faldt EU-erhvervsgrenens markedsandel med 19 %.
At the same time, the market share of the Union industry decreased by 19 %.
Dette skyldes, at efterspørgslen efter EU-erhvervsgrenens varer steg mere end den samlede stigning i salgsmængder.
This is due to the fact that demands to the Union industry increased more than the overall increase in sales volume.
Som nævnt ovenfor var EU-erhvervsgrenen ikke i stand til at øge sine salgsmængder i takt med stigningen i forbruget, idet man allerede producerede på fuld kapacitet.
As mentioned above, since the Union industry already produced at full capacity it was not able to increase its sales volume to the same extent as the increase in consumption.

EU-erhvervsgrenens enhedssalgspriser faldt først med 16 % fra 2005 til 2006 og steg derefter støt.
Unit selling prices of the Union industry first decreased by 16 % from 2005 to 2006, and increased afterwards continuously.
I den betragtede periode steg EU-erhvervsgrenens gennemsnitlige salgspriser således med 31 %.
Over the total period considered, average prices of the Union industry increased thus by 31 %.

Faktorer, der påvirker priserne i Unionen
Factors affecting Union prices
Presset fra efterspørgslen i hele den betragtede periode medførte en markant stigning i priserne.
The pressure from demand throughout the period considered led to, as a consequence, a significant increase in prices.
Den store efterspørgsel i undersøgelsesperioden forårsagede endda midlertidig mangel på EU-markedet.
The high demand during the RIP even caused temporary shortages on the Union market.
Prisniveauet på EU-markedet var generelt højt i hele den betragtede periode.
Price levels on the Union market were generally high throughout the period considered.
Dumpingimporten fra Kina bevirkede ikke et betydeligt pristryk i denne periode.
The dumped imports from China did not exert any significant price pressure during this period.
Den samme stigende tendens kan desuden bemærkes for den kinesiske import og importen fra de øvrige tredjelande, dog med undtagelse af 2006, hvor der var et fald i både mængder og priser.
Thus, the same increasing trend can also be observed for the Chinese imports and the imports from the other third countries, with the exception of 2006, when both volumes and prices dropped.
Avancen var i mindre grad påvirket af de overordnede produktionsomkostninger, og prisstigningen skyldtes især udviklingen på markedet.
The sales margins were less influenced by the full cost of production, and the price increases were mainly due to market developments.
Dette ses endvidere i de exceptionelle omkostningsstigninger i 2006 (som skyldtes en exceptionel stigning i omkostningerne til brændselsolie til fremstilling af FF), som ikke direkte påvirkede EU-erhvervsgrenens salgspriser, der konstant faldt i dette år.
This is also evidenced by the exceptional increase in cost in 2006 (due to an exceptional increase in the fuel oil costs for the production of FF) which did not have a direct impact on the Union industry’s sales price which decreased during this same year.
Beskæftigelsen forblev generelt stabil i hele den betragtede periode, men produktiviteten steg med 6 % i den samme periode, hvilket skyldtes en stigning i produktionsmængderne.
Employment remained overall stable during the period considered, while productivity increased by 6 % during the same period which is due to the increase in production volume.
Forarbejdning af FF til FA er en forholdsvis simpel proces, som ikke er særlig arbejdskraftintensiv.
The processing of FF into FA is a rather simple process and therefore not very labour intensive.
De generelle lønninger faldt med 4 % i løbet af den betragtede periode.
The average wages decreased by 4 % during the period considered.
EU-erhvervsgrenens rentabilitet steg samlet set markant fra 2005 til undersøgelsesperioden, nemlig med 43 % og nåede et meget højt niveau i løbet af undersøgelsesperioden, hvor den langt oversteg det rentabilitetsmål, som blev fastsat i løbet af den oprindelige undersøgelse (15,17 %).
The profitability of the Union industry increased overall significantly from 2005 to the RIP, i.e. by 43 % and reached a very high level during the RIP, exceeding by far the target profit set during the original investigation (15,17 %).
Det skal bemærkes, at EU-erhvervsgrenens rentabilitet var meget høj i hele den betragtede periode, med undtagelse af 2006.
It is noted that the profitability of the Union industry reached high levels throughout the period considered with the exception of 2006.
I 2006 forårsagede exceptionelt høje omkostninger til brændselsolie, som er en af de vigtigste omkostningsfaktorer til fremstilling af FF, kombineret med lave salgspriser tab for EU-erhvervsgrenen.
In 2006, the exceptional high costs for fuel oil, which is one of the main cost factors for the production of FF, combined with low sales prices resulted in losses for the Union industry.
Investeringerne steg i den betragtede periode, selv om det samlede beløb ikke var markant og kun svarede til en lille procentdel af den opnåede fortjeneste.
Investments increased during the period under consideration although the total amount was not significant, being equivalent to only a small percentage of the profits obtained.
EU-erhvervsgrenen investerede ikke i ny kapacitet, men hovedsagelig i reparationer og vedligeholdelse.
The Union industry did not invest in new capacities but these investments were rather in repairs and maintenance.
Det fremgik endvidere af undersøgelsen, at investeringsafkastet, altså nettofortjenesten før skat af den pågældende vare i form af en procentdel af den bogførte nettoværdi af de anlægsaktiver, der var afsat til den samme vare, steg markant i den betragtede periode.
The investigation also showed that the return on investments, i.e. pre-tax net profit of the like product expressed as a percentage of the net book value of fixed assets allocated to the like product, increased notably during the period considered.
Undersøgelsen viste ikke, om EU-erhvervsgrenen havde vanskeligt ved at rejse kapital.
The investigation did not bring into light any evidence that the Union industry has major problems in raising capital.
Likviditeten udviste en tendens, der lignede rentabilitetens, og den faldt drastisk i løbet af den betragtede periode.
Cash flow followed a similar trend as profitability, increasing significantly during the period under consideration.
EU-erhvervsgrenen udnyttede ikke direkte væksten på markedet i den betragtede periode, idet dens samlede markedsandel faldt, selv om salgsmængderne steg.
The Union industry did not directly benefit from the growth of the market during the period considered, since, while it increased its sales volume it lost overall market share.
Denne situation skyldes dog, at EU-erhvervsgrenen besluttede at opretholde sin produktionskapacitet på det samme niveau i hele den betragtede periode.
However, this situation is due to the Union industry’s decision to maintain its production capacity at the same levels throughout the period considered.
Rentabiliteten var høj og efterspørgslen stigende, men der blev dog ikke investeret i øget kapacitet.
Indeed, although profitability was high, and demand was increasing, no investments were made to increase capacity.
Til trods for de gældende foranstaltninger fortsatte dumpingen på et betydeligt niveau, selv om det dog lå under det niveau, der blev fastlagt i forbindelse med den oprindelige undersøgelse, på grundlag af data fra den eneste samarbejdsvillige eksporterende producent og beregninger baseret på de foreliggende oplysninger (kinesiske statistikker).
During the RIP, despite the measures in force substantial dumping continued albeit at lower levels than established in the original investigation, based both on the data obtained from the sole cooperating exporting producer and the calculations based on facts available (Chinese statistics).
Selv om EU-erhvervsgrenen har haft mulighed for at rejse sig efter tidligere dumping, navnlig hvad angår salgsmængder, salgspriser og rentabilitet, er dumpingmargenerne stadig markante.
Even if the Union industry has had the chance to recover from past dumping, in particular in terms of sales volume, sales prices and profitability, dumping margins are still significant.

Export activity of the Union industry
EU-erhvervsgrenens eksportmængder
Export volume of the Union industry
EU-erhvervsgrenens vigtigste eksportmarked er USA.
The Union industry’s main export market is the USA.
Eksportmængden faldt i 2006 og 2007, men niveauet for undersøgelsesperioden var dog næsten på linje med niveauet for 2005.
Although decreasing in 2006 and 2007, export levels of 2005 were almost reached in RIP.
Det skal bemærkes, at der blev eksporteret en betydelig mængde til USA, idet den svarede til 25 % af den samlede produktionsmængde i undersøgelsesperioden, samtidig med at EU-erhvervsgrenen også importerede større mængder fra Kina for at efterkomme kundernes efterspørgsel i Unionen.
It should be noted that the volume exported to the USA was significant, i.e. it corresponded to 25 % of its total production volume during the RIP, while on the other hand large volumes of the product concerned were also imported by the Union industry from China to satisfy the demand of their customers in the Union.
EU-erhvervsgrenens egen produktion af FA blev eksporteret til det mere lukrative marked i USA, hvor priserne var endnu højere end på EU-markedet.
The Union industry own production of FA was exported to the more lucrative USA market where prices were at even higher levels than on the Union market.
Konklusion om EU-erhvervsgrenens situation
Conclusion on the situation of the Union industry
Det er derfor klart, at antidumpingforanstaltningerne har haft en positiv indvirkning på EU-erhvervsgrenens situation.
The anti-dumping measures had a clear positive impact on the situation of the Union industry.
Alle de vigtigste skadesindikatorer såsom produktion (+ 8 %) og salgsmængder (+ 34 %), salgsværdi (+ 75 %), gennemsnitlige salgspriser (+ 31 %), investeringer (+ 87 %), rentabilitet (+ 43 %), likviditet (+ 561 %), lagerbeholdninger (– 50 %) og produktivitet (+ 6 %) har fulgt en positiv udvikling.
All main injury indicators, such as production (+ 8 %) and sales volume (+ 34 %), sales value (+ 75 %), average sales price (+ 31 %), investments (+ 87 %), profitability (+ 43 %), cash flow (+ 561 %), stocks (– 50 %) and productivity (+ 6 %) have shown positive developments.
Navnlig var EU-erhvervsgrenens rentabilitet meget høj i hele den betragtede periode, med undtagelse af 2006.
In particular, profit levels of the Union industry were high throughout the period considered with the exception of 2006.
Hvad angår EU-erhvervsgrenens markedsandel, kan den faldende tendens ikke betragtes som en indikator for skade.
As far as the market share of the Union industry is concerned, the decreasing trend could not be considered as pointing to injury.
EU-erhvervsgrenen producerede nemlig allerede på maksimal kapacitet og kunne ikke imødekomme den stigende efterspørgsel, som til trods for stigende salgsmængder havde en negativ indvirkning på markedsandelen.
Indeed, the Union industry, already producing at maximum capacity, could not supply the increasing demand, which had, despite increasing sales volumes, a negative effect on its market share.
(8 3) På baggrund af den positive udvikling med hensyn til de indikatorer, der vedrører EU-erhvervsgrenen, kan det konkluderes, at situationen kan betragtes som god, og det kunne ikke konkluderes, at den fortsat led væsentlig skade.
In conclusion, in view of the positive development of the indicators pertaining to the Union industry, it is considered to be in a good situation and it could not be established that material injury has continued.
Resumé af analysen af sandsynligheden for fortsat dumping og fornyet skadevoldende dumping
Summary of the analysis of the likelihood of the continuation of dumping and the recurrence of injurious dumping
Det skal erindres, at de eksporterende producenter fra Kina selv med de gældende foranstaltninger stadig foretog dumping af betydeligt omfang, jf. betragtning 31 ovenfor.
It is recalled that even with the measures in force, the exporting producers in China were still dumping at significant levels, as explained in recital (31) above.
Bortfald af foranstaltningerne kunne, hvis eksportpriserne blev reduceret tilsvarende, medføre endnu højere dumpingmargener.
Removal of the measures could, if the export prices were reduced commensurately, lead to even higher dumping margins.
Som nævnt ovenfor er incitamentet til at øge eksportmængderne til Unionen betydelige, idet det andet store eksportmarked for Kina, nemlig USA, har indført en meget høj antidumpingtold på varer fra Kina, og dette marked er derfor praktisk taget utilgængeligt for eksport fra Kina.
As mentioned above, the incentive to increase export volumes to the Union is considerable, since the other major export market for China, i.e. the USA has high anti-dumping measures in place against China with prohibitive character and this market is therefore practically not accessible for Chinese exports.
Det blev endvidere konstateret, at de kinesiske producenter havde betydelig overskydende kapacitet som følge af en strukturel overkapacitet i Kina, som skyldtes et fald i efterspørgslen på hjemmemarkedet, idet markedet blev svækket efter OL 2008 og på grund af virkningerne af den globale økonomiske krise.
Furthermore it was found that the Chinese producers had significant spare capacities due to a structural overcapacity in China caused by a decrease of domestic demand in China due to a shrinking market after the Olympic Games in 2008 and the effect of the global economic crisis.
Det blev endvidere konstateret, at de kinesiske eksportpriser til tredjelande var lavere end til Unionen.
It was also found that Chinese export prices to third countries were at lower levels than those to the Union.
Det blev derfor konkluderet, at der var risiko for fortsat dumping og for en forøgelse af importmængden, som kan bevirke et pres på Unionens priser — i hvert fald på kort sigt — hvis foranstaltningerne bortfalder.
It was therefore concluded that there was a likelihood of continuation of dumping and a risk of an increase of the volume of imports exerting a downward pressure on prices in the Union, at least in the short term, if measures were repealed.
Normalt ville en stigning i dumpingimporten medføre et pres på salgspriserne og have negativ betydning for EU-erhvervsgrenens rentabilitet og den økonomiske genrejsning, som blev konstateret i undersøgelsesperioden.
It is normally the case that an increase of dumped imports would exercise a downward pressure on the sales price level and would negatively affect the Union industry’s profitability as well as its financial recovery that was observed during the RIP.
Dumpingimportens virkning for EU-erhvervsgrenen — indikationer og sandsynlig udvikling efter undersøgelsesperiodens udløb
Impact of the dumped imports on the Union industry — indications and likely development during the post RIP period
EU-erhvervsgrenens markedsandel faldt allerede fra 2006, selv i en periode med stigende forbrug, mens den kinesiske imports markedsandel steg fra 2006 og fremover.
The market share of the Union Industry went down already as from 2006, and this during a period of increasing consumption, whilst from the same year onwards the market share of the Chinese imports increased.
På grundlag af disse blandede indikatorer (altså EU-erhvervsgrenens generelle genrejsning men med tab af markedsandel) blev udviklingen efter undersøgelsesperioden undersøgt for at skabe et klarere billede af de mulige fremtidige tendenser.
In view of these mixed indicators (i.e. overall recovery by the Union Industry, but loss of market share), the post-RIP developments were examined to get a clearer picture of likely future trends.
Det skal desuden erindres, at sandsynligheden for fornyet skade som følge af et pristryk også kan påvirkes eller forværres af udviklingen i den globale økonomi og deraf følgende virkninger for efterspørgsel og forbrug.
It should also be recalled that the likelihood of recurrence of injury caused by a downward pressure on prices may also be influenced or accentuated by the evolution of the global economy and its effects on demand and consumption.
Der blev indsamlet yderligere oplysninger for at afgøre om de konklusioner, der var blevet draget på grundlag af analysen af den betragtede periode, navnlig undersøgelsesperioden, også gjaldt efter undersøgelsesperioden.
Additional information was collected in order to determine whether the conclusions drawn on the basis of the analysis of the period considered and more in particular the RIP, remain valid after the RIP.
I den henseende indsendte EU-erhvervsgrenen en række oplysninger om udviklingen i deres salgspriser i Unionen for perioden fra oktober 2008 til april 2009 og om mængden af importerede varer fra Kina og de gennemsnitlige importpriser i den samme periode.
In this regard, the Union industry submitted information on the development of their sales prices in the Union covering the period from October 2008 to April 2009 as well as on Chinese import volumes and average import prices during the same period.
På dette grundlag blev der konstateret en klar og tydelig faldende tendens i EU-erhvervsgrenens salgspriser på EU-markedet, idet salgspriserne i april 2009 faldt med 35 % i forhold til de gennemsnitlige salgspriser i undersøgelsesperioden.
On this basis, a clear and continuous downward trend of the Union industry’s sales prices on the Union market could be observed, i.e. sales prices in April 2009 decreased by 35 % as compared to the average sales price during the RIP.
EU-erhvervsgrenens salgsmængder var i april 200933 % lavere end i marts 2009, selv om der ikke kan konstateres en vedvarende faldende tendens.
As far as sales volumes of the Union industry are concerned, while there is no continuous downward trend, sales in April 2009 were 33 % lower than in March 2009.
Intet tydede på, at EU-erhvervsgrenen havde modtaget færre ordrer.
There were indications that orders to the Union industry have been decreasing.
EU-erhvervsgrenens rentabilitet udviste en betydeligt negativ udvikling.
As far as the Union industry’s profitability is concerned, the negative development has been significant.
Fortjenesten reduceredes nemlig hele tiden og faldt med næsten 80 % i april 2009 i forhold til fortjenesten i hele undersøgelsesperioden.
Thus, profit levels shrank continuously and dropped by almost 80 % in April 2009 when compared to the profit level reached during the RIP.
EU-erhvervsgrenen har således ikke nået det rentabilitetsmål, som blev fastsat i løbet af den oprindelige undersøgelse, siden marts 2009 og lå langt under målet i april 2009.
Thus, the Union industry’s profit levels have not reached the target profit set during the original investigation since March 2009 and fell in April 2009 far below it.
Hvad angår importen fra Kina, fulgte de kinesiske importpriser en vedvarende, faldende tendens, som dog var mindre udtalt end faldet i importmængder og faldet i EU-erhvervsgrenens salgspriser på EU-markedet.
As far as the Chinese imports are concerned, Chinese import prices followed a continuous downward trend, however less accentuated than the decrease in import volumes and the decrease in the Union industry sales prices on the Union market.
De kinesiske importpriser lå overvejende en anelse over EU-erhvervsgrenens salgspriser, men underbød dem i nogle måneder, hvilket tyder på et øget pristryk på markedet fra disse importerede varer.
The Chinese import prices, while mostly still slightly above the Union industry’s sales price, were in some months undercutting them, which shows that the price pressure on the market from these imports has increased.
Det blev desuden konstateret ved udløbet af denne periode, at de kinesiske priser underbød EU-erhvervsgrenens priser.
Similarly at the end of this period the Chinese prices were found to be underselling the Union industry prices.
Ud fra ovenstående og ud fra den tydelige faldende tendens i EU-erhvervsgrenens økonomiske situation blev det konstateret, at der er sandsynlighed for fornyet skade, hvis foranstaltningerne får lov til at udløbe.
On the basis of the above, and given the clear downward trend of the Union industry’s financial situation, it was concluded that a recurrence of injury is likely should measures be allowed to lapse.
Det skal bemærkes, at efterspørgslen i Unionen er faldet markant på grund af den globale økonomiske krise, hvilket har indvirket negativt på salgsmængderne, salgspriserne og rentabiliteten på EU-markedet.
It is noted that due to the global economic crisis, demand in the Union has decreased significantly which has had a negative impact on the sales volumes, sales prices and profitability on the Union market.
EU-erhvervsgrenens økonomiske situation er forværret, hvormed EU-erhvervsgrenen er blevet særligt sårbar og dermed også mere udsat for virkningerne af dumpingimport fra Kina.
The financial position of the Union industry has deteriorated, making the Union industry particularly vulnerable and thus more easily affected by dumped imports from China.
Situationen vil sandsynligvis forværres yderligere i tilfælde af en stigning i dumpingimporten, hvis foranstaltningerne får lov til at udløbe.
This situation will likely further deteriorate in case of a surge of such imports should measures be allowed to lapse.
Konklusion om sandsynligheden for fornyet skade
Conclusions on the likelihood of recurrence of injury
Det konstateres kort sagt, at hvis foranstaltningerne ophæves, er der på kort sigt sandsynlighed for en betydelig forøgelse af den kinesiske dumpingimport til Unionen med et pristryk til følge og deraf følgende fornyet skade for EU-erhvervsgrenen.
In summary it is considered that in case measures were repealed, there is a short-term likelihood of a significant increase of dumped imports from China to the Union with downward pressure on prices as a consequence and a recurrence of injury to the Union industry.
