Dette vil være en udfordring for EU-erhvervsgrenen, der vil blive konfronteret med et stærkt konkurrencepræget miljø.
Although the level of closing stocks of the cooperating Union producers increased by 32 % between 2009 and the RIP, it decreased in proportion to the production levels and is not considered by the producers as abnormally high.
Derfor kan tilstedeværelse af varer importeret til lave dumpingpriser fra Kina og Rusland ikke tolereres.
Table 12
Deres tilstedeværelse vil medføre et nedadgående pres på EU-markedets priser og fordreje konkurrencen, og som en konsekvens heraf vil det forvolde EU-producenterne væsentlig skade.

Det skal bemærkes, at den samlede produktionskapacitet af den pågældende vare i Kina vurderes til at udgøre 10-11 mio. ton, hvilket er mere end det globale FeSi-forbrug.
Whilst the number of people employed by the cooperating Union producers increased by almost 50 % in the period considered, their average wages remained stable in this period.
Samtidig udgør den samlede kapacitetsudnyttelse omkring 50 %.
Table 13
Med 0,8 mio. ton var den kinesiske eksport af FeSi globalt set forholdsvis stabil i den betragtede periode.
Average labour costs per employee
Dette eksportniveau skyldes hovedsagelig eksportrestriktioner som beskrevet i betragtning 41.
(EUR)
Selv hvis eksportrestriktionerne bliver ved med at bestå, bør det understreges, at den nuværende eksportmængde fra Kina til hele verden er større end det samlede EU-forbrug.
The investigation showed that the imports of low-priced dumped products from the countries concerned decreased on the Union market after the imposition of the original measures in 2008.
Grundet EU-markedets tiltrækningskraft som beskrevet i betragtning 40-49 kan det med rimelighed forventes, at mindst en del af den nuværende kinesiske eksport vil blive omdirigeret til EU-markedet, hvis foranstaltningerne ophæves, især fordi Kina meget snart vil støde på yderligere konkurrence på sit traditionelle asiatiske marked, da der udvikles yderligere produktionskapacitet i Malaysia som forklaret i betragtning 44.
This allowed the Union industry to achieve high level of production, increase its sales volume, market share and profitability and to improve its overall financial situation.
Udløbet af antidumpingtolden i kombination med større konkurrence i Asien vil helt sikkert gøre EU-markedet til et tiltrækkende mål for kinesiske eksportører.
It is therefore concluded that the Union industry did not suffer material injury during the RIP.
I den sammenhæng erindres det, at Kina var en af EU-markedets største eksportører, før foranstaltningerne blev indført.
However, given the decline in consumption and the deterioration in certain financial indicators during the RIP such as profitability, cash flow and return on investment the situation of the Union industry is still vulnerable.
Endelig bekræfter eksportprisernes nuværende niveau i Kina, størrelsen af den konstaterede dumpingmargen og det betydelige prisunderbud, at der uden antidumpingforanstaltningerne igen vil opstå en urimelig konkurrence fra den kinesiske eksport, hvilket vil forvolde EU-erhvervsgrenen væsentlig skade.
F. LIKELIHOOD OF RECURRENCE OF INJURY
I løbet af undersøgelsen blev det konstateret, at produktionen af den pågældende vare i Rusland i NUP udgjorde 633000 ton, mens produktionskapaciteten vurderes til 900000 ton.
To assess the likelihood of recurrence of injury if the measures were allowed to lapse, the potential impact of the Chinese and Russian imports on the Union market and the Union industry was analysed in accordance with Article 11(2) of the basic Regulation.
Herved opstår en uudnyttet kapacitet på 267000 ton, hvilket i sig selv er nok til at dække en tredjedel af Unionens efterspørgsel.
The analysis focused on the consumption trend of the Union market, spare capacity, trade flows and attractiveness of the Union market, and pricing behaviour of the countries concerned.
For så vidt angår Ruslands eksport af den pågældende vare bør det bemærkes, at Rusland på nuværende tidspunkt eksporterer 73 % af sin produktion.
Consumption in the Union
Ud over Unionen hører USA, Japan og Sydkorea til Ruslands traditionelle eksportmarkeder.
The consumption of the product concerned in the Union has decreased by 10 % in the RIP compared to the previous year.
I betragtning af den stigende konkurrence på det asiatiske marked som beskrevet i betragtning 44, er der tydelige indikatorer for, at de fleste af disse handelsstrømme vil blive omdirigeret til Unionen, hvis foranstaltningerne ophæves.
This, at the same time, is a reduction of more than 25 % compared with pre-crisis level of 2007.
Denne virkning kunne blive yderligere forstærket, hvis USA's nuværende antidumpingundersøgelse af import fra Rusland (som et resultat af den undersøgelse, der blev indledt i juli 2013) fører til, at der indføres foranstaltninger.
The fall in the consumption of the product concerned is driven by declining steel production in the Union and a further decline in the next years can be expected.
I den henseende hævder én eksporterende producent fra Rusland, at det er usandsynligt, at USA indfører told på ferrosilicium med oprindelse i Rusland.
This will be challenging for the Union industry which will be confronted with a highly competitive environment.
Der blev fremlagt nogle uofficielle konklusioner fra den igangværende undersøgelse for at støtte denne påstand.
It is thus considered that the presence of low-priced dumped imports from the PRC and Russia cannot be tolerated.
Producenten har dog ikke fremlagt dokumentation, der støtter denne påstand, og i betragtning af at USA har indledt en antidumpingundersøgelse, der endnu ikke er afsluttet, kan det ikke udelukkes, at der vil blive indført foranstaltninger.
It will exercise a downward pressure on the prices in the market and will distort competition and as a consequence will cause substantial material injury to the Union producers.
Udløbet af antidumpingtolden i kombination med større konkurrence på deres vigtigste eksportmarkeder vil gøre EU-markedet til et tiltrækkende mål for russiske eksportører.
Spare capacity, trade flows and attractiveness of the Union market, and pricing behaviour of the countries concerned
I den sammenhæng erindres det, at Rusland var en af EU-markedets største eksportører, før foranstaltningerne blev indført, og at Rusland stadig er til stede, selv om foranstaltningerne blev indført for fem år siden.
The PRC
Endelig bør det understreges, at truslen fra importen fra Rusland suppleres af landets prispolitik på dets eksportmarkeder.
It has to be noted that total capacity of the production of the product concerned in the PRC is estimated at 10-11 million tonnes which is higher than the global consumption of FeSi.
Både den oprindelige undersøgelse og den nuværende udløbsundersøgelse har vist, at den russiske dumpingadfærd synes at være strukturel.
At the same time overall capacity utilization reaches around 50 %.
Landets eksportpriser ligger systematisk under priserne på det russiske hjemmemarked.
Chinese worldwide export of FeSi was relatively stable during the period considered, at a level of 0,8 million tonnes.
Endvidere bekræfter den nuværende undersøgelse, at priserne på importen fra Rusland fortsat underbyder EU-producenternes salgspriser.
This level of exports is mainly a result of export restrictions as described in recital (41).
I lyset af konklusionerne af undersøgelsen, nemlig den uudnyttede kapacitet i de pågældende lande, den fortsatte dumping og de kinesiske og russiske eksportørers begrænsede muligheder for salg på markeder i andre vigtige tredjelande, hvilket styrker EU-markedets tiltrækningskraft, vurderes det, at hvis foranstaltningerne ophæves, vil det svække EU-erhvervsgrenens position på dens kernemarked, og der vil ske fornyet skade grundet sandsynligheden for kinesisk og russisk import til dumpingpriser.
However, the Union has no control over these mechanisms and the export restrictions can be removed by the Chinese government at any moment, leaving the Union market under the serious threat of flooding by the export of the product concerned from China.
Der er ingen grund til at tro, at den forbedring af EU-erhvervsgrenens resultater, der er sket som følge af de gældende foranstaltninger, vil vare ved eller styrkes, hvis foranstaltningerne ophæves.
Even if the export restrictions remain untacked, it should be emphasized that the current volumes of Chinese worldwide exports are higher than total consumption in the Union.
Betingelserne er tværtimod gunstige for, at import fra de pågældende lande omdirigeres til EU-markedet til dumpingpriser og i betydelige mængder, og det vil sandsynligvis underminere den positive udvikling på EU-markedet, som er opnået i den betragtede periode.
It can be reasonably expected, as a consequence to the attractiveness of the EU market described in recitals (40-49) above, that should the measures be repealed at least part of the current Chinese export would be re-directed to the Union market, especially that very soon it will meet additional competition on its traditional Asian markets due to the development of additional capacity of production in Malaysia as explained in recital (44) above.
Den sandsynlige dumpingimport vil medføre et pres på EU-erhvervsgrenens salgspriser og bevirke, at den mister markedsandele, og dumpingimporten vil derfor have en negativ indvirkning på EU-erhvervsgrenens finansielle resultater, der stadig er sårbare.
Expiry of the anti-dumping duties combined with tougher competition in Asia will definitely make Union market an attractive target for the Chinese exporters.
I den henseende har Kommissionen modtaget en kommentar fra en russisk eksporterende producent, der hævder, at fornyet skade ikke kan baseres alene på muligheden for fornyet skade, men snarere på sandsynligheden heraf.
In this context it is recalled that before imposition of the measures China was a major exporter to the Union market.
Undersøgelsen har dog vist en række faktuelle forhold, herunder det faktum, at russiske producenters dumpingadfærd ikke er ophørt, og at der er uudnyttet kapacitet i Rusland.
Finally, the current level of the Chinese export prices, the magnitude of dumping margin found, and the existence of significant price undercutting confirm that in the absence of the anti-dumping measures unfair competition by the Chinese export will recur leading to material injury to the Union industry.
Desuden er det et faktum, at EU-forbruget var lavere i NUP end før den oprindelige undersøgelse.
During the review investigation it was established that the production of the product concerned in Russia in the RIP amounted to 633 thousand tonnes while the capacity of production is estimated to 900 thousand tonnes.
Endelig forventes der globalt set en større produktion af denne vare, især på det asiatiske marked.
This leaves around 267 thousand tonnes of spare capacity, which is itself enough to supply one third of the Union's demand.
Betragter man disse forhold samlet og de foreliggende faktiske oplysninger, er der en rimelig sikkerhed for, at foranstaltningernes udløb vil volde EU-erhvervsgrenen fornyet skade som følge af dumpingimport.
With regard to Russian export of the product concerned it should be noted that Russia is currently exporting 73 % of its production.
G. UNIONENS INTERESSER
Besides the Union, its other traditional export markets are US, Japan and South Korea.
Indledning
In view of the increased competition on the Asian markets, as described in recital (44) above, there are strong indications that most of these trade flows will be re-directed to the Union should the anti-dumping measures be repealed.
I overensstemmelse med grundforordningens artikel 21 blev det undersøgt, om det ville være imod Unionens interesser som helhed at opretholde de nuværende foranstaltninger.
This effect might be further accentuated should the currently running US anti-dumping investigation on imports from Russia (as a result of the investigation initiated in July 2013) lead to the imposition of measures.
Unionens interesser blev fastlagt på grundlag af en vurdering af alle de forskellige involverede parters interesser, dvs. EU-erhvervsgrenens, importørernes og brugernes interesser.
On this point, one exporting producer from Russia has claimed that the imposition of the duties in the US on ferro-silicon originating from Russia is unlikely.
Alle interesserede parter fik mulighed for at fremsætte bemærkninger, jf. grundforordningens artikel 21, stk. 2.
Some unofficial findings from the ongoing investigation were provided in order to support this claim.
Eftersom denne undersøgelse er en fornyet undersøgelse af de gældende foranstaltninger, tillod den en vurdering af enhver uønsket negativ virkning, som de gældende antidumpingforanstaltninger måtte have på de interesserede parter.
However, the producer does not provide any documental evidence supporting its claims and given that the US anti-dumping investigation has been initiated and is still ongoing, imposition of measures cannot be ruled out.
EU-erhvervsgrenens interesser
Expiry of the anti-dumping duties combined with tougher competition in their main export markets will make Union market an attractive target for the Russian exporters.
I betragtning 154 konkluderedes det, at EU-erhvervsgrenen sandsynligvis vil opleve en alvorlig forværring af dens situation, hvis antidumpingforanstaltningerne får lov til at udløbe.
In this context it is recalled that before imposition of the measures Russia was a major exporter to the Union market and it is still present there despite five years of the measures.
Af den grund ville det gavne EU-erhvervsgrenen, hvis foranstaltningerne opretholdes, da EU-producenterne bør kunne opretholde deres salgsmængde, markedsandel, rentabilitet og deres overordnede økonomiske situation.
Finally, it should be underlined that the Russian threat in terms of volumes is supplemented by its pricing policy on its export markets.
Derimod ville det være en alvorlig trussel mod EU-erhvervsgrenens levedygtighed, hvis foranstaltningerne ikke opretholdes, da der er grund til at forvente, at importen fra Kina og Rusland flyttes til EU-markedet til dumpingpriser og i betydelige mængder, hvilket vil forårsage fornyet skade.
Both the original investigation and the current expiry review have shown that Russian dumping practice seems to be structural: its export price is systematically below that of the Russian domestic market.
Brugernes interesser
Moreover, the current investigation confirms that prices of Russian imports are still undercutting the sales prices of the Union producers.
I forbindelse med den nuværende fornyede undersøgelse, samarbejdede ti brugere i Unionen (støberier og stålproducenter) med Kommissionen.
In view of the findings of the investigation, namely the spare capacity available in the countries concerned, the continuation of dumping and the limited ability of the Chinese and Russian exporters to sell in other main third countries markets which increases the attractiveness of the Union market, it is considered that the repeal of the measures would weaken the position of the Union industry in their core market and the injury suffered would recur due to likely Chinese and Russian imports at dumped prices.
Fire af svarene indeholdt generelle bemærkninger, mens kun seks var fuldstændige besvarelser af spørgeskemaet.
There are no reasons to believe that the improvement of the performance of the Union industry due to the measures in force would remain or strengthen if the measures were repealed.
På baggrund af disse oplysninger blev det konstateret, at omkostningerne for den pågældende vare har en gennemsnitlig indvirkning på ca. 1 % af de totale produktionsomkostninger for brugerne, og den overstiger ikke 2 % for nogen af de samarbejdsvillige brugere.
On the contrary, there are favourable conditions for a likely shift of the imports from the countries concerned to the Union market at dumped prices and in considerable volumes and that would likely undermine the positive developments in the Union market reached over the period considered.
Selv om nogle af brugerne oplevede tab i 2011 og NUP, kan dette ikke henføres til de gældende antidumpingforanstaltninger på importen af FeSi.
The likely dumped imports would be able to exercise pressure on the Union industry's sales prices and make it lose market share and as a consequence would negatively impact the Union industry's financial performance which is still vulnerable.
Det skal bemærkes, at Kinas og Ruslands markedsandel i den oprindelige undersøgelse udgjorde ca. 40 % af EU-markedet, og at tolden for disse to lande ligger på mellem 15,6 % og 31,2 %.
On this point, we have received a comment from a Russian exporting producer, which argues that the recurrence of injury cannot be based on the simple possibility of recurrence of injury, but rather on the likelihood of it.
Derfor kunne den mulige indvirkning på toldens udløb vurderes som en gennemsnitlig omkostningsbesparelse på højst 0,1 % (beregnet på basis af en markedsandel på 40 % for de lande, der er omfattet af foranstaltninger, og en gennemsnitlig værditold på 20 %).
However, the investigation has shown a series of factual elements, including the fact that dumping practices from Russian producers have not ceased to exist, and the existence of spare capacity in Russia.
Importørernes interesser
Moreover, it is a fact that the Union consumption is lower in the RIP than before the original investigation.
Alle kendte importører var blevet oplyst om indledningen af den fornyede undersøgelse.
Finally, on the global level, more output of the product is expected, especially on the Asian market.
Der var ingen importør af den pågældende vare, der svarede på stikprøvespørgeskemaet, der var vedlagt meddelelsen om indledning.
These elements considered together lead to a reasonable certainty that, on the basis of the facts available, should the measures be left to expire, the Union industry would again suffer injury from dumped imports.
Af undersøgelsen fremgik det, at importører nemt kan foretage indkøb fra forskellige kilder på markedet, særligt fra EU-erhvervsgrenen og fra store eksportører fra tredjelande, der sælger til ikke-dumpingpriser.
G. UNION INTEREST
På grund af importørernes manglende interesse konkluderedes det desuden, at det ikke ville være imod deres interesse at opretholde foranstaltningerne.
Introduction
I lyset af ovenstående konkluderes det, at der ikke er nogen tvingende grunde i forbindelse med EU's interesser til ikke at opretholde de gældende antidumpingforanstaltninger.
In accordance with Article 21 of the basic Regulation, it was examined whether the maintenance of the existing measures would be against the Union interest as a whole.
H. ANTIDUMPINGFORANSTALTNINGER
The determination of the Union interest was based on an appreciation of the various interests involved, i.e. those of the Union industry, of importers and of users.
Alle parter blev underrettet om de vigtigste kendsgerninger og betragtninger, der lå til grund for at anbefale, at de gældende foranstaltninger opretholdes.
The interested parties were given the opportunity to make their views known pursuant to Article 21(2) of the basic Regulation.
Parterne fik desuden en frist til at fremsætte bemærkninger til ovennævnte fremlæggelse af oplysninger.
As this investigation is a review of the existing measures, it allowed for assessment of any undue negative impact of the existing anti-dumping measures on the interested parties.
For at minimere risikoen for omgåelse som følge af den store forskel i toldsatser vurderes det, at det i dette tilfælde er nødvendigt med særlige foranstaltninger for at sikre den korrekte anvendelse af antidumpingtolden.
Therefore, the continuation of measures would benefit the Union industry because the Union producers should be able to maintain their sales volumes, market share, profitability and overall positive economic situation.
Disse særlige foranstaltninger, der kun gælder for virksomheder, for hvilke der er indført individuel toldsats, omfatter forelæggelse for toldmyndighederne i medlemsstaterne af en gyldig handelsfaktura, som skal være i overensstemmelse med kravene i bilaget til denne forordning.
By contrast, the discontinuation of the measures would seriously threaten the viability of the Union industry because there are reasons to expect a shift of the Chinese and Russian imports to the Union market at dumped prices and in considerable volumes that would cause recurrence of injury.
Import, der ikke er ledsaget af en sådan faktura, er omfattet af den restantidumpingtold, som gælder for alle andre producenter.
Interest of users
Det i grundforordningens artikel 15, stk. 1, fastsatte udvalg afgav ikke udtalelse —
In the current review, the Commission received cooperation from ten users in the Union (foundries and steel producers).
VEDTAGET DENNE FORORDNING:
Four of the responses consisted of general comments while only six contained complete questionnaire replies.
Artikel 1
On the basis of these data it was established that the cost of the product concerned has on average impact of about 1 % over the total cost of production of the users, and it does not reach 2 % for any of the cooperating users.
Der indføres en endelig antidumpingtold på importen af ferrosilicium, i øjeblikket henhørende under KN-kode 72022100, 72022910 og 72022990 og med oprindelse i Folkerepublikken Kina og Rusland.
Thus, although some of the users were loss making during 2011 and RIP, this cannot be attributed to the existence of the anti-dumping duties on imports of FeSi.
Den endelige antidumpingtold fastsættes til følgende af nettoprisen, frit Unionens grænse, ufortoldet, for den i stk. 1 omhandlede vare fremstillet af følgende virksomheder:
It should be considered that the market share of China and Russia during the original investigation was about 40 % of the Union market, and the duties for these two countries range from 15,6 % to 31,2 %.
Land
Therefore, the potential impact of the expiry of the duties could be estimated as a cost saving on average not higher than 0,1 % (calculated on the basis of market share of 40 % for the countries under measures and an average ad valorem duty of 20 %).
Virksomhed
For this reason, it is unlikely that the expiry of the duty would have an effect on the return to profitability of the users which have suffered losses during the last two years of the period considered.
Antidumpingtold (%)
Furthermore, due to the nature of the product as well as the several sources of supplies available on the market users can easily switch suppliers.
Taric-tillægskode
Interest of importers
Folkerepublikken Kina
All known importers were informed about the initiation of the review.
Erdos Xijin Kuangye Co. Ltd., Qipanjing Industry Park
No importer of the product concerned replied to the sampling questionnaire attached to the notice of initiation.
Lanzhou Good Land Ferroalloy Factory Co., Ltd., Xicha Villa
The investigation revealed that importers can easily buy from different sources that are currently available on the market, in particular from the Union industry and major third countries' exporters selling at non-dumped prices.
Alle andre virksomheder
Also, in absence of interest from importers, it was concluded that it would not be against their interest to maintain measures.
Anvendelsen af de individuelle toldsatser, der er fastsat for de virksomheder, der er nævnt i stk. 2, er betinget af, at der over for medlemsstaternes toldmyndigheder fremlægges en gyldig handelsfaktura, der overholder kravene i bilaget.
In view of the above, it is concluded that there are no compelling reasons of Union interest against the maintenance of the current anti-dumping measures.
Hvis der ikke fremlægges en sådan faktura, anvendes toldsatsen for »alle andre virksomheder«.
H. ANTI-DUMPING MEASURES
De gældende bestemmelser vedrørende told finder anvendelse, medmindre andet er fastsat.
All parties were informed of the essential facts and considerations on the basis of which it was intended to recommend that the existing measures be maintained.
Artikel 2
They were also granted a period to submit comments subsequent to that disclosure.
