Hence there was no breach of Article 2(7)(c) of the basic Regulation.
Zato ni prišlo do kršitve člena 2(7)(c) osnovne uredbe.
Concerning the second claim of Since Hardware, the investigation revealed that although the price difference diminished in the second half of the IP and was practically eliminated at the end of the IP, it is maintained that this alignment of Chinese prices to international market prices was also the result of State intervention.
Glede druge trditve družbe Since Hardware je bilo s preiskavo ugotovljeno, da se kljub temu, da se je v drugi polovici OP razlika v ceni zmanjšala in je bila na koncu OP skoraj odpravljena, vztraja pri trditvi, da je bila tudi ta uskladitev kitajskih cen s cenami na mednarodnem trgu posledica posredovanja države.
Indeed, in 2009, when prices on international steel markets had plummeted due to the financial and economic crises, the State abolished the export taxes previously imposed, thereby allowing for an alignment of domestic prices with international prices without the danger of a significant price increase for these important raw materials on the domestic market.
Leta 2009, ko so zaradi finančne in gospodarske krize cene na mednarodnih trgih z jeklom strmo padle, je država odpravila prej uvedene izvozne dajatve in s tem omogočila uskladitev domačih cen z mednarodnimi cenami, brez nevarnosti za znatno zviševanje cen teh pomembnih surovin na domačem trgu.
This shows that the market for the raw materials necessary to produce the product concerned continued to be the subject of State intervention also in the second half of the IP.
Iz tega je razvidno, da je bil trg za surovine, ki so potrebne za izdelavo zadevnega izdelka, tudi v drugi polovici OP odvisen od posredovanja države.
It is noted that the additional price information submitted by Since Hardware supported the finding that the main raw materials for the production of ironing boards in the first half of the IP were on average significantly cheaper on the Chinese domestic market than on other sizeable world markets.
Opozoriti je treba, da so dodatne informacije o ceni, ki jih je predložila družba Since Hardware, potrdile ugotovitev, da so bile glavne surovine za proizvodnjo likalnih desk v prvi polovici OP na kitajskem domačem trgu v povprečju znatno cenejše kot na drugih večjih svetovnih trgih.
A comparison was made between Chinese domestic steel prices and domestic prices on other markets which are comparable to the Chinese market in terms of volume (EU, USA and Canada) as they have a high consumption of steel and there are several active producers.
Opravljena je bila primerjava med cenami kitajskega domačega jekla in cenami domačega jekla na drugih trgih, ki se lahko po obsegu primerjajo s kitajskim trgom (EU, ZDA in Kanada), ker je poraba jekla na teh trgih visoka in imajo številne dejavne proizvajalce.
Other markets suggested by Since Hardware such as Turkey and Ukraine (domestic and export markets) have not been found to be representative in terms of size and/or number of producers of these particular raw materials and thus not comparable to the Chinese domestic market.
Za druge trge, ki jih je predlagala družba Since Hardware, kot sta Turčija in Ukrajina (domači in izvozni trgi), ni bilo ugotovljeno, da so reprezentativni glede velikosti in/ali števila proizvajalcev teh surovin in se zato ne morejo primerjati s kitajskim domačim trgom.
It is also recalled that the basic Regulation puts the burden of proof on the company that claims MET to demonstrate that it fulfils the relevant criteria.
Prav tako je treba opozoriti, da osnovna uredba nalaga dokazno breme družbi, ki zahteva TGO, da dokaže, da izpolnjuje ustrezna merila.
As the Commission established a number of elements pointing to the cost of major inputs not reflecting market values, it is consequently for the company to come up with elements that would refute this.
Ker je Komisija ugotovila več elementov, ki kažejo, da stroški večjih vlaganj ne odražajo tržne vrednosti, mora družba izkazati elemente, ki bi to ovrgli.
Furthermore, the basic Regulation in Article 2(7)(c) provides explicitly for the possibility to examine whether decisions of firms regarding, inter alia, inputs are made in response to market signals reflecting supply and demand and without significant State interference and whether costs of major inputs substantially reflect market values.
Poleg tega osnovna uredba v členu 2(7)(c) izrecno določa možnost, da se preuči, ali se odločitve podjetij med drugim glede vlaganj sprejemajo v skladu s tržnimi signali, ki odražajo ponudbo in povpraševanje, in brez večjega vmešavanja države ter ali stroški večjih vlaganj v glavnem odražajo tržne vrednosti.
Consequently, if a company does not fulfil these conditions, as outlined above, MET can be refused.
Če družba ne izpolnjuje teh pogojev, kot je opisano zgoraj, se TGO lahko zavrne.
It is also noted that Since Hardware used to import its raw materials during the first investigation but switched to Chinese sourcing due to lower prices on the Chinese market.
Opozoriti je treba tudi, da je družba Since Hardware med prvo preiskavo svoje surovine uvažala, a se je zaradi nižjih cen na kitajskem trgu preusmerila na kitajski vir.
With regard to the identified accounting issues, Since Hardware claimed that they did not relate to Since Hardware’s accounts and, in any event, did not mean that the company did not fully comply with international accounting standards.
Glede ugotovljenih računovodskih vprašanj je družba Since Hardware trdila, da se ne nanašajo na računovodske podatke družbe Since Hardware in da v nobenem primeru ne dokazujejo, da podjetje ni v celoti usklajeno z mednarodnimi računovodskimi standardi.
Since Hardware also claimed that the accounting mistake identified was immaterial.
Družba Since Hardware je prav tako trdila, da je bila ugotovljena računovodska napaka nepomembna.
The fact that the Chinese companies may not be subject under their domestic law to comply with certain accounting standards has no bearing on whether their accounts may be assessed in the light of those standards for the purpose of a MET determination.
Dejstvo, da kitajskim družbam njihova domača zakonodaja omogoča, da niso usklajene z nekaterimi računovodskimi standardi, pa ne vpliva na možnost, da se zaradi določitve TGO njihovi računovodski podatki ocenijo na podlagi teh standardov.
The fair presentation of financial statements is a basic IAS and it is up to the company to show that any infringement of those standards does not constitute a breach of the second criterion of Article 2(7)(c) of the basic Regulation.
Osnovni MRS je poštena predstavitev finančnih izkazov, družba pa mora dokazati, da kakršna koli kršitev teh standardov ne predstavlja kršitve drugega merila člena 2(7)(c) osnovne uredbe.
This has not been done either for the transaction in question or the wrong booking.
To ni bilo opravljeno niti za zadevno transakcijo niti za napačno knjiženje.
In any event, the latter cannot be considered as immaterial as represents a sizeable percentage of total exports to the Union in the investigation period.
Slednje se v nobenem primeru ne more šteti za nepomembno, ker predstavlja visok odstotek skupnega izvoza v Unijo v obdobju preiskave.
To conclude, none of the arguments raised by Since Hardware were such as to lead to a different assessment of the findings.
V sklepu nobena trditev družbe Since Hardware ni spremenila ugotovitev.
On the basis of the above, the findings and the conclusion that MET should not be granted to Since Hardware were confirmed.
Na podlagi navedenega se potrdijo ugotovitve in sklep, da se TGO družbi Since Hardware ne more odobriti.
It is thus definitively concluded that MET should not be granted to Since Hardware.
Zato se dokončno sklene, da se TGO družbi Since Hardware ne more odobriti.
Briefly, and for ease of reference only, these criteria are set out below:
Merila so le zaradi lažjega sklicevanja na kratko povzeta takole:
export prices and quantities, and conditions and terms of sale are freely determined;
izvozne cene in količine ter pogoji prodaje so prosto določeni;
the majority of the shares belong to private persons; State officials appearing on the board of directors or holding key management positions shall either be in minority or it must be demonstrated that the company is nonetheless sufficiently independent from State interference;
večina deležev je v lasti zasebnikov; državni uradniki, ki so člani upravnih odborov ali zasedajo ključne vodstvene položaje, morajo biti v manjšini ali pa je treba dokazati, da je družba kljub temu dovolj neodvisna od vmešavanja države;
exchange rate conversions are carried out at the market rate; and
pretvorbe menjalnega tečaja se izvajajo po tržnih tečajih, in
Since Hardware, as well as requesting MET, also claimed IT in the event of it not being granted MET.
Družba Since Hardware je poleg TGO zahtevala tudi IO v primeru, da ji TGO ne bi bila odobrena.
The investigation showed that Since Hardware met all the above criteria and it is concluded that IT should be granted to Since Hardware.
Preiskava je pokazala, da družba Since Hardware izpolnjuje vsa navedena merila, in sklene se, da je družbi Since Hardware treba odobriti IO.
According to Article 2(7) of the basic Regulation, in case of imports from non-market-economy countries and to the extent that MET could not be granted, for countries specified in Article 2(7)(b) of the basic Regulation, normal value has to be established on the basis of the price or constructed value in a market economy third country (analogue country).
V skladu s členom 2(7) osnovne uredbe se pri uvozu iz držav z netržnim gospodarstvom in v primerih, ko ni mogoče odobriti TGO, za države iz člena 2(7)(b) osnovne uredbe normalna vrednost določi na podlagi cene ali računsko določene vrednosti v tretji državi s tržnim gospodarstvom (primerljiva država).
In the notice of initiation, the Commission indicated its intention to use the United States of America (‘USA’) as an appropriate analogue country for the purpose of establishing normal value for the PRC, but no producer from the USA cooperated in the investigation.
V obvestilu o začetku je Komisija izrazila namen, da bo kot ustrezno primerljivo državo za določitev normalne vrednosti za LRK uporabila Združene države Amerike (ZDA), vendar ni v preiskavi sodeloval noben proizvajalec iz ZDA.
Subsequently, Turkish and Ukrainian companies were also approached but there was no cooperation from them either.
Zato je bil vzpostavljen stik s turškimi in ukrajinskimi družbami, vendar te prav tako niso želele sodelovati.
As no third country producer cooperated, Union producers were approached on the basis of Article 2(7)(a) of the basic Regulation and one of them cooperated.
Ker ni sodeloval noben proizvajalec iz tretje države, je bil na podlagi člena 2(7)(a) osnovne uredbe vzpostavljen stik s proizvajalci v Uniji in eden je privolil v sodelovanje.
No comments on using the information obtained from a Union producer for establishment of normal value were received from Since Hardware.
Družba Since Hardware ni podala pripomb o uporabi informacij, pridobljenih od proizvajalca Unije za določitev normalne vrednosti.
Thus, the normal value was established pursuant to Article 2(7)(a) of the basic Regulation on the basis of verified information received from the cooperating Union producer.
Normalna vrednost je bila zato določena v skladu s členom 2(7)(a) osnovne uredbe na podlagi preverjenih informacij, ki jih je poslal sodelujoči proizvajalec Unije.
The domestic sales of the Union producer of the like product were found to be representative in terms of volume when compared to the product concerned exported to the Union by Since Hardware.
Ugotovljeno je bilo, da je bila domača prodaja proizvajalca Unije podobnega izdelka glede na obseg reprezentativna v primerjavi z zadevnim izdelkom, ki ga je v Unijo izvažala družba Since Hardware.
Pursuant to Article 2(7)(a) of the basic Regulation, normal value for Since Hardware was established on the basis of verified information received from the sole cooperating Union producer, i.e. on the basis of prices paid or payable on the Union market for comparable product types, where these were found to be made in the ordinary course of trade, or on constructed values, where no domestic sales in the ordinary course of trade for comparable product types were found, i.e. on the basis of the cost of manufacturing of ironing boards manufactured by the Union producer plus a reasonable amount for selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses and for profit.
V skladu s členom 2(7)(a) osnovne uredbe je bila normalna vrednost za družbo Since Hardware določena na podlagi preverjenih informacij, prejetih od edinega sodelujočega proizvajalca Unije, tj. na podlagi cen, ki so bile plačane ali se plačujejo na trgu Unije za primerljive vrste izdelka, če je bilo ugotovljeno, da so bile cene določene v običajnem poteku trgovine, ali na podlagi računsko določenih vrednosti, če za primerljive vrste izdelka ni bila ugotovljena domača prodaja v običajnem poteku trgovine, tj. na podlagi stroškov proizvodnje likalnih desk, ki jih je imel proizvajalec Unije, h katerim se prišteje razumen znesek za prodajne, splošne in upravne stroške („PSA“) ter za dobiček.
The profit margin used is in line with the one used in the first investigation.
Uporabljena stopnja dobička je skladna s stopnjo, uporabljeno v prvi preiskavi.
In all cases the product concerned was directly sold for export to independent customers in the Union, and therefore, the export price was established in accordance with Article 2(8) of the basic Regulation, namely on the basis of prices actually paid or payable for the product when sold for export to the Union.
V vseh primerih je bil zadevni izdelek prodan za izvoz neposredno neodvisnim odjemalcem v Uniji, zato je bila izvozna cena določena v skladu s členom 2(8) osnovne uredbe, in sicer na podlagi cen, ki so se dejansko plačevale ali se plačujejo za izdelek, prodan za izvoz v Unijo.
In order to ensure a fair comparison between normal value and export price, account was taken, in accordance with Article 2(10) of the basic Regulation, of differences in factors which were claimed and demonstrated to affect prices and price comparability.
Za zagotovitev poštene primerjave med normalno vrednostjo in izvozno ceno so se v skladu s členom 2(10) osnovne uredbe upoštevale razlike v dejavnikih, za katere se je trdilo in dokazalo, da vplivajo na cene in primerljivost cen.
On this basis, allowances for transport costs, insurance, handling charges, credit costs and indirect taxes were made where applicable and justified.
Na podlagi tega so bila po potrebi odobrena in utemeljena nadomestila za stroške prevoza, zavarovanje, manipulativne stroške, stroške kredita in posredne davke.
As provided for under Article 2(11) of the basic Regulation, the weighted average normal value by type was compared with the weighted average export price of the corresponding type of the product concerned.
V skladu s členom 2(11) osnovne uredbe je bila opravljena primerjava med tehtano povprečno normalno vrednostjo glede na vrsto in tehtano povprečno izvozno ceno ustrezne vrste zadevnega izdelka.
The dumping margin of Since Hardware as a percentage of the net, free-at-Union-frontier price was found to be 51,7 %.
Stopnja dampinga za družbo Since Hardware, izražena kot odstotek za neto ceno franko meja Unije, je bila 51,7 %.
Specificities of this investigation
Posebnosti te preiskave
The examination of material injury suffered by the Union industry is normally based on all dumped imports originating in one or more exporting countries, in accordance with Article 3(2) of the basic Regulation.
V skladu s členom 3(2) osnovne uredbe preiskava znatne škode, povzročene industriji Unije, navadno temelji na celotnem dampinškem uvozu s poreklom iz ene ali več držav izvoznic.
However, in this case, a full analysis of injury in respect of all imports of ironing boards originating, inter alia, in the PRC was already carried out in the framework of the first investigation.
V tem primeru pa je bila popolna analiza škode v zvezi s celotnim uvozom likalnih desk s poreklom med drugim iz LRK že opravljena v okviru prve preiskave.
Indeed, in that investigation the Commission established that dumped imports of ironing boards originating, inter alia, in the PRC had caused material injury to the Union industry.
V navedeni preiskavi je Komisija ugotovila, da je dampinški uvoz likalnih desk s poreklom med drugim iz LRK industriji Unije povzročil znatno škodo.
These findings, made in accordance with the provisions of Article 3 of the basic Regulation, were based on an assessment of the effects of all imports originating in the PRC and Ukraine, with the sole exclusion of imports of ironing boards produced by Since Hardware which had been found to be sold at non-dumped prices.
Te ugotovitve, sprejete v skladu z določbami člena 3 osnovne uredbe, so temeljile na oceni učinkov celotnega uvoza s poreklom iz LRK in Ukrajine, pri čemer je bil izvzet le uvoz likalnih desk, ki jih je proizvedla družba Since Hardware, za katere je bilo ugotovljeno, da so bile prodane po nedampinških cenah.
As a result, during the IP, anti-dumping duties were applicable to all imports from those countries (only Since Hardware was subject to a zero duty).
Zaradi tega so se v OP protidampinške dajatve uporabljale za celoten uvoz iz teh držav (le za družbo Since Hardware je veljala dajatev nič).
As the Union industry was already protected against the harmful effects of these imports during the IP, it was impossible to perform a normal full injury analysis.
Ker je bila v OP industrija Unije že zavarovana pred škodljivimi učinki takšnega uvoza, ni bilo mogoče opraviti normalne analize celotne škode.
Therefore, a specific approach was developed, adapted to the specificities of this investigation, in which the Institutions focused on particular injury indicators.
Zato je bil razvit poseben pristop, prilagojen posebnostim te preiskave, pri katerem so se institucije osredotočile na določene kazalnike škode.
The information requested from the Union industry focused on whether Since Hardware had been undercutting its prices and on what was the profitability of those prices.
Industrija Unije je bila zaprošena za informacije o tem, ali je družba Since Hardware nelojalno nižala prodajne cene in na čem je temeljila dobičkonosnost teh cen.
Furthermore, the Union industry was invited to provide any other information that, in its view, indicated that Since Hardware’s exports to the Union had caused it injury.
Industrija Unije je bila tudi pozvana, da predloži vse informacije, ki bi po njenem mnenju dokazovale, da ji je uvoz družbe Since Hardware v Uniji povzročil škodo.
In this context, the Commission examined i) the development of dumped imports of ironing boards produced by Since Hardware; ii) whether those imports had been made at prices undercutting the sales prices of the Union industry and what was the profitability of the Union industry prices; and iii) any information provided by the Union industry indicating that Since Hardware’s exports to the Union had caused it injury, e.g. concerning the Union industry’s losses of customers and orders to Since Hardware and the profitability of their Union sales during the IP.
V tej zvezi je Komisija proučila: i) razvoj dampinškega uvoza likalnih desk, ki jih je proizvedla družba Since Hardware; ii) ali je bil ta uvoz opravljen po cenah, ki so nelojalno nižale prodajne cene industrije Unije, in na čem je temeljila dobičkonosnost cen industrije Unije; in iii) vse informacije, ki jih je predložila industrija Unije, ki dokazujejo, da ji je uvoz družbe Since Hardware v Uniji povzročil škodo, npr. v zvezi z izgubo odjemalcev industrije Unije in naročili za družbo Since Hardware ter dobičkonosnostjo njene prodaje v Uniji v OP.
The complaint was lodged by three Union producers representing a major proportion of the total known Union production of ironing boards, i.e. in this case approximately 40 % of the estimated Union production.
Pritožbo so vložili trije proizvajalci Unije, ki predstavljajo glavni delež celotne znane proizvodnje likalnih desk v Uniji, v tem primeru okrog 40 % ocenjene proizvodnje v Uniji.
None of the other Union producers opposed the initiation of the present proceeding.
Nobeden od drugih proizvajalcev Unije ni nasprotoval začetku postopka.
As stated in recital (11), from the five producers which replied to the sampling questions only the three complainants formed part of the Union industry in the first investigation.
Kot navaja uvodna izjava (14), so le trije pritožniki od petih proizvajalcev, ki so odgovorili na vprašanja v zvezi z vzorčenjem, predstavljali del industrije Unije v prvi preiskavi.
As stated above, in light of the specificities of this case, questionnaires were sent only to the three selected Union producers that also formed part of the Union industry in the first investigation.
Kakor je navedeno zgoraj, so bili glede na posebnosti tega primera vprašalniki poslani le trem izbranim proizvajalcem Unije, ki so del industrije Unije predstavljali tudi v prvi preiskavi.
Ironing board producers can be found in several Member States including Belgium, the Czech Republic, France, Germany, Italy, Poland, Portugal, the Netherlands, Spain and the United Kingdom.
Proizvajalci likalnih desk prihajajo iz več držav članic, vključno z Belgijo, Češko, Francijo, Nemčijo, Italijo, Poljsko, Portugalsko, Nizozemsko, Španijo in Združenim kraljestvom.
The total volume of annual Union production of ironing boards can be estimated at above 5 million units.
Celoten obseg letne proizvodnje likalnih desk v Uniji se ocenjuje na več kot 5 milijonov enot.
Imports from Since Hardware
Uvoz iz družbe Since Hardware
Status of imports
Status uvoza
As described in recitals (22) to (54), this investigation has shown that imports from Since Hardware have been dumped on the Union market.
Kot je opisano v uvodnih izjavah od (25) do (57), je ta preiskava pokazala, da je bil uvoz iz družbe Since Hardware na trg Unije dampinški uvoz.
Over the period considered, Since Hardware’s exports to the Union increased strongly, by 64 % [9].
Izvoz družbe Since Hardware v Uniji se je v obravnavanem obdobju močno povečal, za 64 % [8].
On the other hand, the imports of other Chinese and Ukrainian producers have constantly decreased following the imposition of provisional duties in 2006 (confidential data based on Member States’ reports in accordance with Article 14(6) of the basic Regulation):
Po drugi strani se je po uvedbi začasnih dajatev leta 2006 uvoz drugih kitajskih in ukrajinskih proizvajalcev stalno zmanjševal (zaupni podatki na podlagi poročil držav članic v skladu s členom 14(6) osnovne uredbe):
Volume of imports of ironing boards produced by Since Hardware
Obseg uvoza likalnih desk, ki jih proizvaja družba Since Hardware
Indices for confidentiality reasons
Indeksi zaradi zaupnosti
PRC (excluding Since Hardware) and Ukraine
LRK (razen družbe Since Hardware) in Ukrajina
Given that Union consumption has remained substantially stable over the period considered except for the slight increase between 2006 and 2007, as mentioned in recital (61), the market share of Since Hardware has developed in line with its import volumes shown.
Ker se v obravnavanem obdobju potrošnja Unije v glavnem ni bistveno spreminjala, razen rahlega povečanja med letoma 2006 in 2007, kot je navedeno v uvodni izjavi (64) zgoraj, je bil razvoj tržnega deleža družbe Since Hardware skladen z obsegom uvoza, kot je prikazano zgoraj.
It should be noted that in 2006, the Union market share of Since Hardware represented about one fifth of the total market share of the other Chinese and Ukrainian producers, whereas by the IP, Since Hardware’s market share amounted to almost half of the total market share of the other Chinese and Ukrainian producers.
Treba je opozoriti, da je leta 2006 tržni delež družbe Since Hardware v Uniji predstavljal okrog petino celotnega tržnega deleža drugih kitajskih in ukrajinskih proizvajalcev, do OP pa je tržni delež družbe Since Hardware znašal skoraj polovico celotnega tržnega deleža drugih kitajskih in ukrajinskih proizvajalcev.
