Cash flow was always negative over the period considered with the exception of 2003, in line with the reduction of the CI’s losses in that year.
Denarni tok je bil v obravnavanem obdobju vedno negativen razen leta 2003, v skladu z zmanjšanjem izgub industrije Skupnosti v tem letu.
Cash flow (Index)
Denarni tok (indeks)
The CI recorded significant levels of investment in particular in 2003.
Industrija Skupnosti je predvsem leta 2003 zabeležila znatno stopnjo naložb.
Those investments were mainly linked to the increase in production capacity, as stated above.
Naložbe so bile povezane predvsem s povečanjem proizvodne zmogljivosti, kot je navedeno zgoraj.
Investments (Index)
Naložbe (indeks)
The return on investment from the production and sales of the like product was negative and decreased substantially during the period considered, reflecting the abovementioned negative trend for the profitability.
Donosnost naložb pri proizvodnji in prodaji podobnega izdelka je bila negativna in se je v obravnavanem obdobju znatno zmanjšala, kar odraža zgoraj navedeni negativni razvoj dobičkonosnosti.
10 % to – 20 %– on investment from the production and sales of the like product was negative and decreased substantially during the period considered, reflecting the abovementioned negative trend for the profitability.

20 % to – 30 %– on investment from the production and sales of the like product was negative and decreased substantially during the period considered, reflecting the abovementioned negative trend for the profitability.
20 % do – 30 %– aložb pri proizvodnji in prodaji podobnega izdelka je bila negativna in se je v obravnavanem obdobju znatno zmanjšala, kar odraža zgoraj navedeni negativni razvoj dobičkonosnosti.
The CI’s ability to raise capital was not found to be significantly affected during the period considered given that DCD represented only a small fraction of the CI’s total business.
Ugotovljeno je bilo, da se zmožnost industrije Skupnosti za zbiranje kapitala v obravnavanem obdobju ni bistveno spremenila, ob upoštevanju, da je DCD predstavljal le majhen del celotnega poslovanja industrije Skupnopsti.
Employment, productivity, growth and wages
Zaposlenost, produktivnost, rast in plače
The evolution of employment, productivity and labour costs of the CI were as follows:
Razvoj zaposlovanja, produktivnosti in stroškov dela v industriji Skupnosti je bil naslednji:
Number of employees (Index)
Število zaposlenih oseb (indeks)
Productivity (tonnes/employee) (Index)
Produktivnost (ton/zaposlenega)(indeks)
Labour costs per employee (Index)
Stroški dela na zaposlenega (indeks)
The CI increased its number of employees between 2002 and the IP by 14 %.
Industrija Skupnosti je med 2002 in OP povečala število zaposlenih za 14 %.
In parallel, productivity increased as a result of the rationalisation process and increased output.
Istočasno se je zaradi postopkov racionalizacije in povečane proizvodnje povečala produktivnost.
Average wage levels increased by 6 % during the period considered.
Povprečne ravni plač so se v obravnavanem obdobju povečale za 6 %.
As concerns the impact on the Community industry of the magnitude of the actual dumping margin, given the volume and prices of the dumped imports from the PRC, this impact cannot be considered negligible.
Vpliv višine dejanske stopnje dampinga na industrijo Skupnosti se glede na obseg in ceno dampinškega uvoza iz LRK ne more šteti kot zanemarljiv.
Furthermore, there were no indications that the Community industry was recovering from the effects of any past dumping.
Poleg tega ni pokazateljev, da bi si industrija Skupnosti opomogla od preteklega dampinga.
Apart from a peak in 2003, consumption remained stable over the period considered.
Potrošnja je razen vrha leta 2003 v obravnavanem obdobju ostala nespremenjena.
During the same period the volume of dumped imports of the product concerned increased dramatically and likewise their market share rose from between 15 % and 25 % in 2002 to between 40 % and 50 % in the IP.
V istem obdobju se je dampinški uvoz zadevnega izdelka znatno povečal, poleg tega se je njegov tržni delež povečal z med 15 in 25 % leta 2002 na med 40 in 50 % v OP.
The average prices of the dumped imports were significantly lower than those of the CI throughout the period considered.
Povprečne cene dampinškega uvoza so bile v obravnavanem obdobju znatno nižje kot cene industrije Skupnosti.
On a weighted average basis, the prices of these imports undercut those of the CI by 25-35 % in the IP.
Na podlagi tehtanega povprečja so v OP cene tega uvoza nelojalno nižale cene industrije Skupnosti za 25–35 %.
During the same period the Community industry suffered severe losses, reaching their peak in the IP when they ranged between – 20 % and – 30 %.
V istem obdobju je industrija Skupnosti utrpela velike izgube, ki so svoj vrh dosegle v OP, ko so znašale med – 20 in – 30 %.
In line with the negative development in profitability, the related indicators such as return on investments and cash flow showed a negative trend.
V skladu z negativnim razvojem dobičkonosnosti so bili negativni tudi povezani kazalci, kot sta donosnost naložb in denarni tok.
Certain injury indicators, such as the production volumes, production capacity, sales volumes, market share and selling prices on the Community market showed a positive trend during the period considered.
Nekatari kazalniki škode, kot so obseg proizvodnje, prodaja, tržni delež in prodajne cene na trgu Skupnosti, so v obravnavanem obdobju kazali pozitiven razvoj.
In this assessment the captive use was not taken into account as it remained stable throughout the period considered, hence not having any impact on the injury analysis.
V tej oceni ni bila upoštevana notranja uporaba, ki je v vsem obravnavanem obdobju ostala nespremenjena, zato ni mogla vplivati na analizo škode.
However, the positive development of certain injury indicators should be viewed in the light of the closure of the Norwegian producer, ODDA, in late 2002 and the subsequent competition between the CI and the Chinese exporting producers to take over the market share held by ODDA.
Vendar je treba pozitivni razvoj nekaterih kazalnikov škode upoštevati z vidika zaprtja norveškega proizvajalca ODDA konec leta 2002 in posledične konkurence med industrijo Skupnosti in kitajskimi proizvajalci izvozniki za prevzem njegovega tržnega deleža. Treba je opozoriti, da je uvoz iz Kitajske zapolnil večino vrzeli, ki jo je pustilo zaprtje ODDA.
In fact, it is noteworthy that the Chinese imports filled most of the gap left by ODDA’s closure: Initially, in 2003, the CI managed to capture around 1/3 of the market share held by ODDA.
Na začetku, leta 2003, je industriji Skupnosti uspelo prevzeti približno 1/3 tržnega deleža ODDA.
This diminished considerably to about 1/7 in the IP.
V OP se je to znatno zmanjšalo na 1/7.
Thus, even though some indicators showed a slightly positive trend, in reality they could have been expected to develop much more favourably, had they not been affected by the dumped imports from the PRC.
Čeprav so torej nekateri kazalniki kazali rahlo pozitiven razvoj, pa bi se morali razvijati precej ugodneje, če jih ne bi prizadel dampinški uvoz iz Kitajske.
In any event, the indicators related to the financial performance of the Community industry (profit, ROI, cash flow) showed such a negative trend that they outweigh largely any positive developments.
V vsakem primeru so kazalniki, povezani s finančnim poslovanjem industrije Skupnosti (dobiček, donosnost naložb, denarni tok), kazali tako negativen razvoj, da je ta močno presegal kakršen koli pozitiven razvoj.
Indeed, as its financial situation shows, the Community industry could not benefit at all from ODDA’s cessation of production and is now in a state where its viability is at stake in the absence of any measures.
Dejansko, kot kaže njeno finančno stanje, industrija Skupnosti sploh ni mogla izkoristiti prenehanja proizvodnje ODDA in je brez ukrepov v stanju, ko je njen obstanek vprašljiv.
In the light of the foregoing, it is concluded that the CI suffered material injury within the meaning of Article 3 of the basic Regulation.
Ob upoštevanju navedenega se sklene, da je industrija Skupnosti utrpela znatno škodo v smislu člena 3 osnovne uredbe.
In accordance with Article 3(6) and (7) of the basic Regulation, it was examined whether there was a causal link between the dumped imports of the product concerned originating in the PRC and the injury suffered by the CI.
V skladu s členom 3(6) in (7) osnovne uredbe je bilo proučeno, ali obstaja vzročna zveza med dampinškim uvozom zadevnega izdelka iz LRK in škodo, ki jo je utrpela industrija Skupnosti.
Known factors other than the dumped imports, which could at the same time have injured the CI, were also examined to ensure that the possible injury caused by these other factors was not attributed to the dumped imports.
Proučeni so bili tudi drugi znani dejavniki poleg dampinškega uvoza, ki bi lahko v istem času povzročili škodo industriji Skupnosti, da bi se zagotovilo, da se morebitna škoda, ki bi jo povzročili ti dejavniki, ne pripiše dampinškemu uvozu.
It is recalled that all imports of the product concerned from the PRC refer to the standard type of DCD, which also accounts for the majority of the CI’s sales on the Community market.
Treba je opozoriti, da gre pri vsem uvozu zadevnega izdelka iz LRK za standardno vrsto DCD, ki pomeni tudi večino prodaje industrije Skupnosti na trgu Skupnosti.
CI’s sales of the so-called micro DCD, not exported by the Chinese producers, had to be excluded when calculating the undercutting.
Prodajo tako imenovanih mikro DCD industrije Skupnosti, ki ga kitajski proizvajalci ne izvažajo, je treba izključiti iz izračuna nelojalnega nižanja cen.
Imports from the PRC increased by 141 % over the period considered.
Uvoz iz LRK se je v obravnavanem obdobju povečal za 141 %.
As a result, their market share increased from 15-25 % in 2002 to 40-50 % in the IP.
Zato se je tržni delež povečal z 15–25 % leta 2002 na 40–50 % v OP.
It is worth noting that the volume of dumped imports peaked in 2003, at 6173 tonnes, reflecting the effects of the closure of the Norwegian producer, then fell in 2004 to steadily increase again in 2005 and in the IP, when they reached 6002 tonnes.
Treba je opozoriti, da je dampinški uvoz leta 2003 s 6173 tonami dosegel svoj vrh, ki odraža zaprtje norveškega proizvajalca, leta 2004 je padel in se leta 2005 ter v OP enakomerno povečal na 6002 toni.
The average prices of the dumped imports were significantly lower than those of the Community industry, undercutting them by 25-35 % in the IP.
Povprečne cene dampinškega uvoza so bile znatno nižje od cen industrije Skupnosti, v OP nelojalno nižje za 25–35 %.
The Chinese export prices decreased by 11 % during the period considered but did not follow a clear downward trend.
Kitajske izvozne cene so se v obravnavanem obdobju znižale za 11 %, vendar ta razvoj ni bil jasno padajoč.
Indeed, the Chinese exporting producers decreased their prices by 7 % in 2003, in their effort to take over the market share held by ODDA.
Dejansko so kitajski proizvajalci izvozniki leta 2003, v svojem prizadevanju, da bi prevzeli tržni delež družbe ODDA, svoje cene znižali za 7 %.
Having obtained the majority of it, they increased their prices by 25 % in 2004, decreased them by 27 % in 2005 and then increased them again by 4 % in the IP.
Ko so pridobili njegov večji del, so leta 2004 svoje cene zvišali za 25 %, jih leta 2005 znižali za 27 % ter jih v OP ponovno zvišali za 4 %.
At the same time, while the prices of the dumped imports decreased by 11 % over the period considered, the CI managed to keep its overall prices relatively stable (increase of 2 %).
V tem času so bile cene industrije Skupnosti relativno nespremenjene (povečanje za 2 %), ob istočasnem znižanju cen dampinškega uvoza za 11 % v obravnavanem obdobju.
However, it should be borne in mind that these prices include micro DCD for which there is no competition from the PRC and which has a much higher price.
Vendar je treba upoštevati, da te cene vključujejo mikro DCD, ki nima konkurence iz Kitajske in ima precej višjo ceno.
Thus, the average annual CI sales prices are affected by the variation in sales volume and prices of standard and micro DCD respectively.
Zato so obseg prodaje in cene standarnega in mikro DCD vplivale na povprečne prodajne cene industrije Skupnosti.
Evolution of unit prices
Razvoj cen na enoto
In view of the significant undercutting established for the standard DCD, which amounted to 25-35 % in the IP, it is clear, that the dumped imports have exerted a strong downward pressure on the CI’s sales prices for the standard DCD, which accounts for the majority of its sales, and have thus prevented the CI from setting its prices at levels which would cover its production costs.
Z vidika znatnega nelojalnega nižanja cen, določenega za standardni DCD, ki je v OP znašal 25–35 %, je jasno, da je dampinški uvoz pomenil močan pritisk na padanje prodajnih cen standardnega DCD industrije Skupnosti, ki pomeni večino njene prodaje, ter s tem preprečil, da bi industrija Skupnosti svoje cene določila na stopnjah, ki bi zajemale njene proizvodne stroške.
This in turn has had a negative impact on the CI’s profitability, causing a substantial part of the significant losses throughout the period considered.
To je po drugi strani imelo nagativen učinek na dobičkonosnost industrije Skupnosti, kar je v obravnavanem obdobju povzročilo velik del znatnih izgub.
Since the CI made losses on sales of DCD already in 2002, it was examined whether the losses are structural in nature rather than caused solely by the dumped imports.
Industrija Skupnosti je pri prodaji standardnega DCD zabeležila izgube že leta 2002, zato je bilo proučeno, ali je izgube povzročal samo dampinški uvoz ali so strukturne narave.
In this respect, it has to be borne in mind that the dumped imports had a strong presence on the Community market already in 2002, with a market share of 15-25 %.
V zvezi s tem je treba opozoriti, da je bil dampinški uvoz močno prisoten na trgu Skupnosti že leta 2002, ko je njegov tržni delež znašal med 15 in 25 %.
Furthermore, the CI provided evidence which showed that due to a cost-cutting programme it managed to keep its unit costs stable over the period considered, despite the increase in raw material prices.
Poleg tega je industrija Skupnosti predložila dokaze, ki kažejo, da ji je v obravnavanem obdobju s programom zmanjševanja stroškov uspelo ohraniti svoje stroške na enoto stabilne kljub zvišanju cen surovine.
However, because of the price depression caused by the Chinese imports this did not have the desired impact of reducing losses but only prevented them from increasing.
Vendar zaradi padca cen, ki ga je povzročil uvoz iz Kitajske, ni imelo željenega učinka zmanjševanja izgub, ampak je samo preprečilo njihovo naraščanje.
Thanks to the cost cutting efforts and ODDA’s exit from the market in late 2002, the CI was in the process of recovering prior to the peak in the Chinese imports in 2003.
Zahvaljujoč prizadevanjem za zmanjšanje stroškov in umika ODDA s trga konec leta 2002 je bila industrija Skupnosti pred vrhom kitajskega uvoza v letu 2003 na tem, da si opomore.
Following this peak, which allowed the Chinese to take over the majority of ODDA’s market share, the CI’s losses increased to between – 10 % and – 20 % in 2004 and continued to increase steadily in 2005 and in the IP, in line with the increase in dumped import volumes and the decrease in the average import prices.
Po tem vrhu, ki je kitajskim proizvajalcem omogočil, da so pridobili večinski tržni delež ODDA, so se izgube industrije Skupnosti povečale za med – 10 in – 20 % leta 2004 ter se leta 2005 in v OP enakomerno povečevale v skladu s povečanjem dampinškega uvoza in nižanjem povprečnih uvoznih cen.
Profitability of CI
Dobičkonosnost industrije Skupnosti
The causal link between the dumped imports and the deterioration of the CI’s economic situation appears to be further reinforced by the fact that the CI is profitable on the type (micro DCD) where there are no Chinese imports whereas it makes heavy losses on the standard type of DCD where it faces unfair competition from the PRC.
Zdi se, da vzročno zvezo med dampinškim uvozom in slabšanjem gospodarskega stanja industrije Skupnosti še bolj potrjuje dejstvo, da je industrija Skupnosti dobičkonosna z vrsto (mikro DCD), kjer ni kitajskega uvoza, velike izgube pa beleži s standardno vrsto DCD, ki je soočena z nepošteno kitajsko konkurenco.
In view of the above, and in particular the development of the market share of the dumped imports, as demonstrated below, at prices which significantly undercut the prices of the CI, it is concluded that the dumped imports played a determining role in the injurious situation of the Community industry.
Zato in predvsem z razvojem tržnega deleža dampinškega uvoza, prikazanega spodaj, po cenah, ki znatno nelojalno nižajo cene industrije Skupnosti, je sklenjeno, da ima dampinški uvoz prevladujočo vlogo pri stanju, škodljivem za industrijo Skupnosti.
Development of market shares
Razvoj tržnih deležev
Dumped imports from PRC
Dampinški uvoz iz LRK
In view of a stable Community consumption over the period considered and the absence of imports from any other third countries, the only known producers of DCD being the CI and a few Chinese producers, there are very few other known factors that could have contributed to the injurious situation of the CI.
Glede na nespremenjeno potrošnjo Skupnosti v obravnavanem obdobju in brez uvoza iz katerih koli tretjih držav, saj so edini znani proizvajalci DCD industrija Skupnosti in nekaj kitajskih proizvajalcev, je malo drugih znanih dejavnikov, ki bi lahko vplivali na škodljivo stanje, v katerem je industrija Skupnosti.
It was examined whether exports by the CI to non-EU countries may have contributed to the injury suffered during the period considered.
Proučeno je bilo, ali je izvoz industrije Skupnosti v države, ki niso članice EU, prispeval k škodi, nastali v obravnavanem obdobju.
Exports to non-EU countries accounted for a significant proportion, between 30 % and 50 % of the CI’s sales of the product concerned during the period considered.
Izvoz v države, ki niso članice EU, je v obravnavanem obdobju pomenil znaten del, med 30 in 50 % prodaje zadevnega izdelka industrije Skupnosti.
Exports increased substantially by 58 % in volume between 2002 and the IP whereas the average unit price decreased by 2 %.
Izvoz se je med letom 2002 in OP znatno povečal za 58 %, povprečna cena na enoto pa se je znižala za 2 %.
This shows that despite the fierce competition from the Chinese exporters also on markets outside the Community, there is a strong demand for DCD produced by the Community industry, even at prices well above those of the Chinese exporters, although, as explained above, the higher average prices can be explained by the higher prices obtained for micro DCD.
To kaže, da kljub močni konkurenci kitajskih proizvajalcev tudi izven trga Skupnosti obstaja močno povpraševanje po DCD, ki ga proizvaja industrija Skupnosti, čeprav so njegove cene znatno višje kot cene kitajskih proizvajalcev, vendar se višje povprečne cene, kot je pojasnjeno zgoraj, lahko pojasnijo z višjimi cenami za mikro DCD.
In order to be able to compete with the low-priced Chinese standard DCD also on non-EU markets, the CI’s export sales were made at prices well below cost of production, thus undermining its overall profitability.
Industrija Skupnosti je, da bi lahko tekmovala s poceni kitajskim standardnim DCD tudi na trgih zunaj EU, izvažala po cenah, ki so znatno pod proizvodnimi stroški, in tako zmanjševala svojo celotno dobičkonosnost.
However, these exports did not directly affect profitability on the Community market.
Vendar ta izvoz ni neposredno vplival na dobičkonosnost na trgu Skupnosti.
Alleged self-inflicted injury
Domnevna samopovzročena škoda
Given that the Community industry has made losses on the product concerned for several years, and nevertheless decided to invest in additional capacity in 2003 and 2004 leading to increased production volumes and stocks, it was examined whether (i) the losses are structural in nature and (ii) the decision to invest in additional capacity has contributed to the injurious situation of the CI.
Glede na to, da je industrija Skupnosti z zadevnim izdelkom že več let beležila izgubo in se je leta 2003 kljub temu odločila za naložbo v dodatne zmogljivosti, kar je leta 2004 povzročilo povečanje proizvodnje in zalog, je bilo proučeno, ali (i) so izgube strukturne in (ii) ali je odločitev za naložbe v dodatne zmogljivosti vplivala na škodljivo stanje industrije Skupnosti.
The latter argument was also brought forward by one importer, who claimed that the CI’s decision to increase its production capacity by one third with the knowledge of already existing imports from China has added significant pressure on the market.
Slednjo utemeljitev je izpostavil en uvoznik, ki je trdil, da je odločitev industrije Skupnosti, da za tretjino poveča svojo proizvodnjo, kljub temu, da je vedela za že obstoječi uvoz iz Kitajske, znatno povečala pritisk na trgu.
With regard to the levels of losses, data obtained from the CI demonstrates that due to its cost-cutting programme the CI has managed to keep its unit costs stable over the period considered, despite the rise in raw material prices.
Glede izgub podatki, ki jih je predložila industrija Skupnosti, kažejo, da je industrija Skupnosti v obravnavanem obdobju s programom zmanjševanja stroškov uspela ohraniti svoje stroške na enoto stabilne kljub zvišanju cen surovine.
However, the CI is suffering from some cost disadvantages, such as three different production sites, no proximity to coal mines and expensive production process, even though it is not possible to compare the CI’s cost structure with that of any other DCD producer, since none of the Chinese exporting producers obtained MET.
Toda industrija Skupnosti trpi zaradi nekaterih stroškovno neugodnih dejavnikov, kot so tri različne proizvodne lokacije, oddaljenost rudnikov premoga in drag proizvodni proces, čeprav stroškovne strukture industrije Skupnosti ni mogoče primerjati s strukturo katerega koli drugega proizvajalca DCD, saj noben kitajski proizvajalec izvoznik ni pridobil TGO.
Nevertheless, the fact that the CI made a small profit in 2001 and also that it is profitable on the product type (micro DCD) not exported by the Chinese producers clearly shows that in normal conditions of competition, the CI might be in a much better shape, and therefore that the amount of losses is not purely structural.
Vendar dejstvo, da je industrija Skupnosti leta 2001 imela majhen dobiček in da je dobičkonosna z vrsto izdelka (mikro DCD), ki ga kitajski proizvajalci ne izvažajo, jasno kaže, da bi lahko bila v normalnih konkurenčnih pogojih industrija Skupnosti v veliko boljšem stanju, in da izgube niso zgolj strukturne.
With regard to the CI’s decision to increase its production capacity, it has to be noted that this occurred after the closure of ODDA, which, prior to its exit, held a significant market share on the Community market.
V zvezi z odločitvijo industrije Skupnosti, da poveča svojo proizvodno zmogljivost, je treba opozoriti, da je do tega prišlo po zaprtju družbe ODDA, ki je pred tem imela znaten tržni delež na trgu Skupnosti.
In the absence of the Chinese imports which managed to take over the majority of ODDA’s lost market share due to dumped prices, the CI could have expected to capture a much larger portion of it.
Brez uvoza iz Kitajske, ki mu je z dampinškimi cenami uspelo prevzeti večino nekdanjega tržnega deleža družbe ODDA, bi industrija Skupnosti lahko pričakovala prevzem precej večjega dela tržnega deleža te družbe.
On the other hand, an operator can never expect that all increase in consumption in its area will turn to it for supply and not to foreign sources.
Po drugi strani pa nosilec dejavnosti nikoli ne more pričakovati, da bo vsako povečanje potrošnje na njegovem področju pomenilo, da se bodo uporabniki obrnili nanj in ne na tuje dobavitelje.
