The weighted average net ex-works sales price to unrelated customers of the Community industry after deduction of discounts and rebates was compared to the weighted average import price of the cooperating Chinese exporting producers’ comparable types at the same level of trade, i.e. sales to distributors.
Ponderirana povprečna neto cena franko tovarna za nepovezane kupce industrije Skupnosti, po odštetju popustov in rabatov se je primerjala s ponderirano povprečno uvozno ceno sodelujočih kitajskih proizvajalcev izvoznikov, ki izvažajo primerljive tipe na istem nivoju trgovine, tj. prodaja distributerjem.
The import prices were at CIF level and an appropriate adjustment was made to include any customs duties normally paid on importation.
Uvozne cene so bile na ravni CIF in opravljena je bila ustrezna prilagoditev za vključitev vseh carin, ki se običajno plačajo pri uvozu.
In two cases, where importers were found to have compensatory contractual arrangements with Chinese exporting producers, resale prices to unrelated customers of these importers were used.
V dveh primerih, ko sta imela izvoznika pogodbeni kompenzacijski dogovor s kitajskimi proizvajalci izvozniki, so bile uporabljene cene pri nadaljnji prodaji nepovezanim kupcem teh uvoznikov.
On that basis, the existence of price undercutting was provisionally established for imports from the PRC.
Na tej podlagi je bil začasno ugotovljeno nelojalno nižanje cen za uvoz iz LRK.
The level of undercutting, expressed as a percentage of the Community industry's average selling price was found for all exporting producers to be above 55 %.
Stopnja nelojalnega nižanja cen, izražena kot odstotek povprečne prodajne cene industrije Skupnosti, je bila pri vseh proizvajalcih izvoznikih nad 55 %.
Situation of the Community industry
Stanje industrije Skupnosti
Preliminary remark
Uvodna opomba
In accordance with Article 3(5) of the basic Regulation, the examination of the impact of the dumped imports on the Community industry included an evaluation of all economic factors and indices having a bearing on the state of the industry from 2000 (the base year) to the IP.
V skladu s členom 3(5) osnovne uredbe je pregled vpliva dampinškega uvoza na industrijo Skupnosti vključeval oceno vseh ekonomskih faktorjev in pokazateljev, ki imajo vpliv na stanje industrije od leta 2000 (osnovno leto) do OP.

Zmogljivost (v enotah)
During the period considered, the Community industry production decreased by 33 %.
Med obravnavanim obdobjem se je proizvodnja industrije Skupnosti zmanjšala za 33 %.
As production capacity remained more or less unchanged during the same period the capacity utilisation decreased in line with the production.
Ker je proizvodna zmogljivost ostala bolj ali manj nespremenjena, se je v istem obdobju izkoriščenost zmogljivosti zmanjšala sorazmerno s proizvodnjo.
Stocks in units
Zaloge v enotah
As a result of falling sales, there has been a small overall increase in the stock levels.
Kot posledica upadle prodaje, so se skupno stopnje zalog malce povečale.
Nevertheless, the investigation showed that the development of stocks is not regarded as a particularly relevant indicator of the economic situation of the Community industry, as Community producers generally produce according to specific orders and therefore stocks are usually goods awaiting dispatch to customers.
Kljub temu, pa je preiskava pokazala, da razvoj zalog ni posebno pomemben kazalec gospodarskega stanja industrije Skupnosti, saj proizvajalci Skupnosti na splošno proizvajajo na podlagi posebnih naročil, zaradi česar so zaloge običajno blago, ki čaka, da bo odposlano kupcem.

Although Community consumption increased between 2000 and the IP, the volume of sales of the Community industry has decreased considerably.
Čeprav se je poraba Skupnosti med letom 2000 in OP povečala, se je obseg prodaje industrije Skupnosti znatno zmanjšal.
Consequently, its market share fell sharply as shown above.
Posledično je močno padel njen tržni delež, kot je prikazano zgoraj.
This is to be seen in contrast with the development of imports from the PRC whose market share increased considerably over the period considered.
To je treba gledati v primerjavi z razvojem uvoza iz LRK, katerega tržni delež se je v obravnavanem obdobju močno povečal.
The Community industry lost 34 % of its market share between 2000 and the IP.
Industrija Skupnosti je izgubila 34 % svojega tržnega deleža med letom 2000 in OP.
Unit prices of the Community industry’s own production for sales to unrelated customers in the Community decreased during the period considered.
Cene na enoto lastne proizvodnje industrije Skupnosti za prodajo nepovezanim kupcem v Skupnosti so v obravnavanem obdobju upadle.
The decrease was particularly marked between 2001 and 2003 when sales prices decreased by 6 %.
Upad je bil zlasti zabeležen med letoma 2001 in 2003, ko so prodajne cene upadle za 6 %.
Traditionally, in this market, prices were driven by the quality of the product, the after sales service and the warranties offered by the producers.
Na tem trgu so ceno tradicionalno določali kvaliteta izdelka, nudenje kasnejših storitev in garancije, ki so jih zagotavljali proizvajalci.
During the period considered this situation has, however, changed radically and price has become the determining sales factor during the IP.
V obravnavanem obdobju pa se je stanje radikalno spremenilo in cena je postala odločilni prodajni dejavnik med OP.
Whilst unit sales prices decreased by 8 % between 2000 and the IP, the unit cost of production has increased, because the price for the main raw material, steel, which accounts for an important part of the cost of production, has been increasing, in particular during the IP.
Medtem ko so prodajne cene upadle za 8 % med letom 2000 in OP, se je strošek na enoto proizvodnje povečal, saj je zlasti med OP rasla cena glavne surovine, jekla, ki predstavlja pomemben del stroškov proizvodnje.
As Community industry’s prices could not match increases in costs of production, because of the price suppression linked to dumped imports, the Community industry experienced a drop in profitability.
Ker cene industrije Skupnosti niso bile kos porastu stroškov proizvodnje, zaradi zaustavitve cen, povezanih z dampinškim uvozom, je industriji Skupnosti padla donosnost.
Factors affecting Community prices
Dejavniki, ki vplivajo na cene Skupnosti
The investigation showed that dumped imports were undercutting the average depressed sales price of the Community industry by more than 59 % in the IP (see recital 64).
Preiskava je pokazala, da dampinški uvoz nelojalno niža povprečno zmanjšano ceno industrije Skupnosti za več kot 59 % v OP (glej uvodno izjavo (64) zgoraj).
This undercutting clearly led to loss-making prices for the Community industry at a time when they needed to increase to cover increased costs.
To nelojalno nižanje cen jasno vodi k cenam industrije Skupnosti, ki povzročajo izgubo v času, ko bi se morale povečati, da bi pokrili povečane stroške.
Between 2000 and the IP, when the Community consumption increased by 17 %, the sales volumes of the Community industry on the Community market declined by 24 %.
Med letom 2000 in OP, ko se je poraba Skupnosti povečala za 17 %, je obseg prodaje industrije Skupnosti na trgu Skupnosti upadel za 24 %.
The Community industry lost 12 percentage points of market share whereas, as already seen, dumped imports gained 29 percentage points of market share during the same period.
Industrija Skupnosti je izgubila 12 odstotnih točk tržnega deleža, pri čemer je, kakor je prikazano zgoraj, dampinški uvoz pridobil 29 odstotnih točk tržnega deleža v istem obdobju.
The Community industry’s profitability has fallen sharply over the period, leading to losses in 2002, which continually worsened during 2003 and the IP.
Donosnost industrije Skupnosti je v obdobju močno upadla, kar je povzročilo izgube v letu 2002, stanje pa se je dodatno poslabšalo med letom 2003 in OP.

Major investments were made during the period considered, particularly in 2001 and 2002.
V obravnavanem obdobju so se opravile večje investicije, zlasti v letih 2001 in 2002.
It should be noted that the Community producers are well-established companies with a long tradition in the hand pallet trucks production.
Treba je opozoriti, da so proizvajalci Skupnosti dobro uveljavljena podjetja, z dolgoletno tradicijo v proizvodnji ročnih vozičkov za premeščanje palet.
Therefore, replacement investments, which formed major part of the investments, were necessary in order to remain competitive.
Zato so bile nadomestne investicije, ki so predstavljale večji del investicij, potrebne za ohranitev konkurenčnosti.
Due to the change of market conditions and more specifically the decline of sales prices, new investments during the IP were to a large extent postponed or cancelled, in spite of the growing expansion of Community consumption.
Zaradi spremembe tržnih pogojev oziroma natančneje upada prodajnih cen, so bile nove investicije med OP večinoma odložene ali odpovedane, kljub porastu porabe Skupnosti.
The return on investment, expressed in terms of net profits of the Community industry and the net book value of its investments, followed the profitability trend and decreased by 1063 % during the period considered.
Donosnost investicij, izražena v neto dobičku industrije Skupnosti in neto knjižni vrednosti njenih investicij, je sledila trendu donosnosti in upadla za 1063 % med obravnavanim obdobjem.
The Community industry’s cash flow deteriorated by 385 % during the period considered, in line with the trend of profitability.
Tokovi denarja industrije Skupnosti so upadli za 385 % med obravnavanim obdobjem, v skladu s trendom donosnosti.
The investigation established that it became more difficult for the Community industry to raise capital during the period considered, in particular because of increasing losses suffered towards the end of this period and in the IP.
V preiskavi je bilo ugotovljeno, da je postalo za industrijo Skupnosti vedno težje zbirati kapital v obravnavanem obdobju, zlasti zaradi čedalje večjih izgub proti koncu tega obdobja in v OP.
Average labour costs per employee (EUR)
Povprečni stroški dela na zaposlenega (EUR)
Productivity (per employee)
Produktivnost (na zaposlenega)
The employment for the like product has declined during the period considered.
Zaposlitev pri podobnih izdelkih je v obravnavanem obdobju upadla.
The productivity per employee (established on the basis of the number of units produced divided by the number of employees) decreased between 2000 and 2002 by 11 % and by another 3 % between 2003 and the IP.
Produktivnost na zaposlenega (določena na podlagi števila proizvedenih enot, deljeno s številom zaposlenih) je upadla med letoma 2000 in 2002 za 11 % in med letom 2003 in OP še za 3 %.
However, this is due to the faster decrease of the production volume than employment.
Vendar pa je razlog tega hitrejši upad obsega proizvodnje in ne zaposlitev.
The average employment cost per employee, reflecting wages, did not even increase in line with inflation, but rather remained stable during the period considered.
Povprečni stroški dela na zaposlenega, ki odražajo plače, se niso povečali z inflacijo, ampak so v obravnavanem obdobju ostali stabilni.
Efforts to rationalise the production facilities have been taken by the Community producers with the closure of factories and reduction in numbers of employees.
Proizvajalci Skupnosti so skušali racionalizirati proizvodnjo z zaprtjem tovarn in zmanjšanjem števila zaposlenih.
The Community producers have been able to limit the number of redundancies by moving part of the workforce to more profitable operations of their business.
Proizvajalci Skupnosti so imeli možnost omejiti število presežkov s prestavitvijo dela delovne sile v bolj donosne dejavnosti njihovih podjetij.
Magnitude of dumping, recovery from past dumping or subsidisation
Obseg dampinga, izboljšanje od preteklega dampinga in subvencioniranje
The impact on the Community industry of the magnitude of the actual margin of dumping cannot be considered negligible given the volume and the prices of the imports concerned.
Vpliv obsega dejanske stopnje dampinga na industrijo Skupnosti ni zanemarljiv ob upoštevanju obsega in cen zadevnega uvoza.
Furthermore, there were no indications that the Community industry was recovering, during the IP, from the effects of any past dumping or subsidisation.
Poleg tega ni pokazateljev za to, da bi si industrija Skupnosti opomogla od preteklega dampinga ali subvencioniranja, v obdobju OP.
Conclusion on injury
Zaključki o škodi
During the period considered the presence of low-priced dumped imports from the PRC significantly increased on the Community market and all relevant injury indicators for the situation of the Community industry showed a negative development.
Med obravnavanim obdobjem se je prisotnost poceni dampinškega uvoza iz LRK na trgu Skupnosti močno povečala in vsi pomembni kazalci škode v stanju industrije Skupnosti kažejo na negativen razvoj.
Some indicators worsened very substantially during the period considered.
Nekateri kazalci so se v obravnavanem obdobju močno poslabšali.
This was the case for production volume, sales volume, market share, profitability, return on investments and cash flow.
Tako je bilo pri obsegu proizvodnje, obsegu prodaje, tržnem deležu, donosnosti, donosnosti investicij in denarnih tokovih.
Taking into account all factors, in particular the fall of market share of the Community industry at a time of rising consumption and the significant financial losses leading to falling levels of investment during the IP, it is provisionally considered that the Community industry has suffered material injury within the meaning of Article 3(1) and 3(5) of the basic Regulation.
Ob upoštevanju vseh dejavnikov, zlasti padca tržnega deleža industrije Skupnosti ob povečanju porabe in velike finančne izgube, ki so vodile k padanju investicijskih stopenj med OP, je bilo začasno ugotovljeno, da je industrija Skupnosti utrpela materialno škodo v smislu člena 3(1) in 3(5) osnovne uredbe.
CAUSATION OF INJURY
POVZROČITEV ŠKODE
In accordance with Articles 3(6) and 3(7) of the basic Regulation, the Commission examined whether the dumped imports of hand pallet trucks originating in the PRC have caused the material injury suffered by the Community industry.
Komisija je v skladu s členom 3(6) in 3(7) osnovne uredbe preverila, ali je dampinški uvoz ročnih vozičkov za premeščanje palet s poreklom iz LRK povzročil materialno škodo industriji Skupnosti.
Known factors other than the dumped imports, which could at the same time be injuring the Community industry, were also examined to ensure that possible injury caused by these other factors was not attributed to the dumped imports.
Preverjeni so bili tudi drugi znani dejavniki, poleg dampinškega uvoza, ki bi prav tako lahko škodili industriji Skupnosti, da bi se zagotovilo, da potencialna škoda, ki bi jo lahko povzročili ti dejavniki, ne bi bila pripisana dampinškemu uvozu.
Effect of the dumped imports
Učinek dampinškega uvoza
Dumped imports from the PRC increased by 138 % over the period considered.
Dampinški uvoz iz LRK se je v obravnavanem obdobju povečal za 138 %.
This increase took place at a faster pace than that of the Community consumption, which increased by 17 % during the same period.
To povečanje je bilo hitrejše kot povečanje porabe Skupnosti, ki se je povečala za 17 % v istem obdobju.
These increased imports and rising consumption coincided with a period of decreasing sales volumes for the Community industry.
Povečan uvoz in naraščajoča poraba sta sovpadala z upadom obsega prodaje industrije Skupnosti.
The market share of the dumped imports increased by more than 100 % during the period considered.
Tržni delež dampinškega uvoza se je v obravnavanem obdobju povečal za več kot 100 %.
This increased market share of imports coincided with a commensurate fall in the market share of the Community industry in the IP.
Ta povečan tržni delež uvoza je sovpadal s sorazmernim padcem tržnega deleža industrije Skupnosti v OP.
It is therefore clear that the imports took over the part of the market share lost by the Community industry.
Zato je jasno, da je uvoz prevzel del tržnega deleža, ki ga je izgubila industrija Skupnosti.
These increased imports also undercut the prices of the Community industry by very substantial margins so it can be reasonably said that they were responsible for the falling prices which led to losses for the Community industry.
Povečan uvoz je tudi nelojalno znižal cene industrije Skupnosti z velikimi stopnjami, zaradi česar je mogoče utemeljeno trditi, da je bil odgovoren za padec cen, kar je povzročilo izgube industriji Skupnosti.
The low price levels of the dumped imports also caused price suppression and the Community industry could not increase its prices to cover costs increases.
Nizke cene dampinškega uvoza so prav tako povzročile zaustavitev cen in industrija Skupnosti ni mogla povečati svojih cen, da bi tako pokrila povečanje stroškov.
In addition, the Community industry could not increase its capacity utilisation, as could have reasonably happened given the increase in consumption observed over the period considered.
Poleg tega industrija Skupnosti ni mogla povečati izkoriščenosti svojih zmogljivosti, kar bi bilo pričakovano, glede na povečanje porabe, ki se je zgodila v obravnavanem obdobju.
It is therefore provisionally concluded that the pressure exerted by the imports concerned, which significantly increased their volume and market share and which were made at low, dumped prices, played a determining role in causing the deterioration of the situation of the Community industry, in particular in terms of lost sales and market share, profitability, return on investment and ability to raise capital.
Zato je mogoče začasno zaključiti, da je pritisk zadevnega uvoza, ki je močno povečal njegov obseg in tržni delež in je potekal po nizkih, dampinških cenah, igral odločilno vlogo pri povzročitvi poslabšanja stanja industrije Skupnosti, zlasti v smislu izgubljene prodaje in tržnega deleža, donosnosti, donosnosti investicij in možnosti zbiranja kapitala.
The effects of other factors
Učinki drugih dejavnikov
The export performance of the Community industry
Izvoz industrije Skupnosti
It is noted that the export performance of the Community industry has decreased during the IP.
Ugotovljeno je bilo, da je izvoz industrije Skupnosti v OP upadel.
However, the volume of exports outside the Community during the period considered represented only 11 % of the total sales volume of the Community industry.
Vendar pa je obseg izvoza izven Skupnosti predstavljal samo 11 % skupne prodajne količine industrije Skupnosti.
On average, export prices were found lower than prices in the Community during the period considered.
Povprečno so bile izvozne cene nižje od cen Skupnosti v obravnavanem obdobju.
However, this is mainly due to the different product mix.
Vendar pa je bistveni razlog za to različna mešanica izdelkov.
It should be noted that the presence of Chinese producers on the export markets has led to reduced profits for the exports of the Community industry.
Opozoriti je treba, da je prisotnost kitajskih proizvajalcev na izvoznih trgih vodila k zmanjšanju dobičkov v izvozu industrije Skupnosti.
Nevertheless, contrary to sales in the Community, exports were still earning minor profits until the IP and therefore could not have contributed significantly to the injury suffered by the Community industry.
Vendar pa je v nasprotju s prodajo Skupnosti, izvoz vseeno zagotavljal manjši dobiček do OP in zato ni mogel pomembneje prispevati k škodi, ki jo je utrpela industrija Skupnosti.
Export sales outside the EC
Prodaja v izvoz izven ES
Sales price (Euro/unit)
Prodajna cena (Euro/enota)
Taking into consideration the small contribution of the export sales to the overall business of the Community industry, this cannot be considered as a factor causing any material injury to the companies concerned.
Ob upoštevanju majhnega prispevka prodaje v izvoz k skupnemu poslovanju industrije Skupnosti, se ta ne more šteti kot dejavnik, ki je povzročil materialno škodo zadevnim podjetjem.
Investments of the Community industry
Investicije industrije Skupnosti
It has been noted that large and significant investments were made during the period considered.
Ugotovljeno je bilo, da so bile v obravnavanem obdobju opravljene velike investicije.
The large investments made during 2001 and 2002 had been planned as far back as 1999, which is before the large-scale entry of China onto the Community market and would normally have been considered as sound decisions in the absence of dumped imports.
Večje investicije v letih 2001 in 2002 so bile načrtovane vse od leta 1999, kar je pred velikopoteznim vstopom Kitajske na trg Skupnosti in bi bile običajno dobre odločitve, če bi ne bilo dampinškega uvoza.
Moreover, the major part of the investment consisted of replacement investment.
Poleg tega so večji del investicij sestavljale nadomestne investicije.
Concerning imports from other third countries, any material injury cannot result from these imports as so few imports come from sources other than the PRC.
Glede uvoza iz drugih tretjih držav, ta ne more biti vzrok materialne škode, saj zelo malo uvoza prihaja iz drugih držav in ne iz LRK.
The other imports only represent 11 % of total imports and their market share, which has declined since 2000, was only 4 % during the IP.
Drug uvoz predstavlja samo 11 % celotnega uvoza in njegovega tržnega deleža, ki je od leta 2000 upadel in je v OP znašal samo 4 %.
Other imports (units)
Drug uvoz (enote)
Market share of other imports
Tržni delež drugega uvoza
The investigation has also shown that the enlargement of the Community has not changed these findings made on the basis of the ‘old’ 15 Member States.
Preiskava je tudi pokazala, da širitev Skupnosti ni spremenila teh ugotovitev, ki so temeljile na „starih“ petnajstih državah članicah.
There is no major production in the new Member States, as there are only some small producers in Poland, the Czech Republic, Slovakia and Slovenia.
V novih državah članicah ni večje proizvodnje, ampak samo manjši proizvajalci na Poljskem, Češkem, Slovaškem in v Sloveniji.
EUR/USD exchange rate
Menjalni tečaj Euro/USD
Certain interested parties claimed that any injury suffered by the Community industry was a consequence of the preferential EUR/USD exchange rate for the Chinese producers.
Nekaj zainteresiranih strank je trdilo, da je bila škoda, ki jo je utrpela industrija Skupnosti posledica preferencialnega menjalnega tečaja Euro/USD za kitajske proizvajalce.
