Concerning the opposite argument on the reduction of the Chinese capacity made by other interested parties, the Commission reiterated that the information and projections that are available concerning the Chinese capacity of crude steel and the product concerned show inconsistencies.
Bistveno povišanje cene koksnega premoga je prikazano na diagramu spodaj [16].
However, while not disputing the Chinese serious commitments to reduce its capacity, the fact remains that the existing Chinese overcapacity, as shown in Table 20 of the Provisional Regulation, is so massive that it cannot realistically disappear in the short or medium-term period.
Diagram
Concerning the absorption capacity of third countries, one interested party referred to the fact that Malaysia and Turkey terminated two investigations on hot-rolled coils against the PRC.
Razvoj cen koksnega premoga apr. 2014 okt. 2014 apr. 2015 okt. 2015 apr. 2016 okt. 2016
Therefore, this interested party concluded that the alleged likelihood of a trade diversion to the Union has lessened.
Diagrama dneva: Cene koksnega premoga visoke kakovosti
These statements were rejected: As mentioned in recital (74), other countries are likely to adopt measures, which makes it unlikely that third countries would start absorbing on their own the huge Chinese capacity.

Concerning the absorption capacity of the PRC, no comments were received from any interested party.

In conclusion, post-IP data confirm the Commission's analysis at provisional stage: Given the limited progress on cutting the massive excess capacity in 2016, it is likely that significant volumes of the existing massive excess capacity on steel, including the like product, would continue to be directed to the Union market, if no measures are taken.

Price level of imports
210 USD/t
Concerning the price level of imports, recital (142) of the provisional Regulation mentioned that the average import prices from the country concerned decreased by 33 %, from 600 EUR/tonne in 2012 to 404 EUR/tonne in 2015.
190 USD/t
Furthermore, the table in recital (145) of the provisional Regulation showed a further continuing decrease of Chinese unit prices during the post-investigation period January-June 2016 when entering the Union market.

The available data concerning the price levels of imports for the period July-September 2016 shows that the average Chinese import prices increased:

Tudi druga zainteresirana stran je navedla, da so se začele cene uvoza nedavno zviševati.
August 2016
Komisija je potrdila, da so se cene kitajskega uvoza v obdobju od julija do septembra 2016 zvišale, kot je prikazano v tabeli iz uvodne izjave 84.
September 2016
Vendar ti zainteresirani strani nista navedli, da so se cene na svetovni ravni zvišale zaradi zvišanja cen surovin, zlasti koksnega premoga, kot je navedeno v uvodni izjavi 85 zgoraj.
Average import prices of Chinese imports
Kitajsko združenje železarjev in jeklarjev (CISA) je po dokončnem razkritju znova trdilo, da je Komisija kršila splošno načelo iz člena 3(9) osnovne uredbe, saj mora določitev grožnje znatne škode temeljiti na „dejstvih in ne le na obtožbah, domnevah ali oddaljeni možnosti“.
(EUR/tonne)
V zvezi s tem se je sklicevalo na „poseben kontekst, ki je sestavljen zgolj iz možnosti“.
The recent rise in the Chinese import prices must be put in the following context:
Drugič, navedlo je, da je izjava Komisije, da je bila povprečna uvozna cena v zadnjem obdobju od julija do septembra 2016 nižja od stroškov proizvodnje industrije Unije na koncu OP, zavajajoča, saj ta primerjava temelji na dveh različnih obdobjih, zato ni ustrezna.
The Chinese import prices were not the only ones to increase after 30 June 2016.
Podobne pripombe so predložili italijanski uporabnik in drugi kitajski proizvajalci izvozniki.
Import prices of other main exporting countries to the Union also increased after 30 June 2016.
Eden od teh kitajskih proizvajalcev izvoznikov je navedel, da so se cene uvoza med januarjem in septembrom 2016 znižale za 13,5 %.
The level reached in the last three months (July-September 2016) was still below the average costs of production of the EU industry (around 431 EUR/tonne at the end of the investigation period, as shown in Table 11 of recital (104) of the provisional Regulation).
Drug kitajski proizvajalec izvoznik je navedel tudi, da trend zviševanja uvoznih cen kaže, da grožnje škode ni, in se je v zvezi s tem skliceval na sodno prakso.
Hence, despite the increased in price levels, the enormous price depression remains, which puts the EU industry into an unsustainable position.
Prvič, Komisija v zvezi s trditvijo, da je kršila splošno načelo iz člena 3(9) osnovne uredbe, znova poudarja, da je določitev temeljila na dejstvih in ne na obtožbah, domnevah ali oddaljenih možnostih.
One important reason for these global price increases of the product concerned is the increase in the raw material prices.
Upoštevala je dejstva, kot so podatki iz tabele 5, in te podatke razložila, pri čemer je ugotovila zniževanje cen do junija 2016, potem pa njihovo zviševanje, ki je bilo predvsem posledica zvišanja cen surovin, kot je navedeno v uvodni izjavi 85 zgoraj.
In particular, prices of coking coal nearly doubled (to about 200 EUR/tonne) in October 2016, compared to prices in the first half of 2016.
Drugič, združenje CISA ni predložilo druge verjetne razlage za razvoj kitajskih uvoznih cen.
This was caused by the combined effect of mandatory working hours' reductions for Chinese coal mines and a number of disruptions at Australian mines.
Tretjič, Komisija trenda kitajskih cen ni analizirala kot ločeni dejavnik, ampak je uporabila celovit pristop.
In this context, it should be noted that the PRC and Australia are among the top producing countries of coking coal in the world.
Tehtala in ocenila ni le vseh dejavnikov iz drugega pododstavka člena 3(9) osnovne uredbe, ampak tudi dodatne dejavnike, kot sta količina naročil in dobičkonosnost (glej oddelek 4.5), da bi svojo celovito oceno oblikovala na trdni dejanski podlagi.
The dramatic price increase of coking coals is shown in the chart below [16].
Kar zadeva trditev, da je Komisija namenoma zavajala zainteresirane strani, ko je primerjala povprečno uvozno ceno v obdobju od julija do septembra 2016 in stroške proizvodnje industrije Unije na koncu OP, je Komisija med obdobjema jasno razlikovala.
Chart
Poleg tega je treba v zvezi s tem poudariti, da so bili podatki o stroških proizvodnje industrije Unije na koncu OP najnovejši razpoložljivi podatki v tem postopku, ker se podatki o stroških proizvodnje industrije Unije po obdobju OP ne zbirajo.
Premium coking coal, contract (USD/t, fob Qld)
Komisija je v zvezi s trditvijo, da ni upoštevala sodne prakse, navedla, da ta trditev ni veljavna, saj je v obravnavanem primeru analizirala razvoj cen surovin v obdobju po preiskavi, kot je prikazano v uvodni izjavi 85.
Premium coking coal (USD/t, fob Qld)
Kljub višanju cen kitajskega uvoza od julija 2016 in ker ni bilo drugih pripomb, podatki o cenah za čas po OP kot celota ne razveljavljajo ugotovitve, da je znižanje kitajskih cen povzročilo grožnjo škode.
USD 250/t
Nedavno višanje cen kitajskega uvoza od julija 2016 te grožnje škode ni odpravilo.
USD 230/t
Kot je navedeno v uvodni izjavi 85, celo ta zvišana raven cen ne more ustaviti znatnega nižanja cen, ki je razlog za nevzdržni položaj industrije EU, če se zvišane kitajske cene primerjajo s stroški proizvodnje proizvajalcev Unije ob koncu obdobja preiskave.
USD 210/t
Nazadnje, Komisija je sklenila, da je zviševanje uvoznih cen morda le začasno in se bo verjetno prenehalo, ko bodo postopno odpravljeni razlogi za zviševanje cen surovin.
USD 190/t
Raven zalog
USD 170/t
Kar zadeva raven zalog, je v uvodni izjavi 147 začasne uredbe navedeno, da Komisija tega dejavnika ni obravnavala kot posebno pomembnega, predvsem ker proizvajalci Unije proizvajajo po naročilu, kar jim omogoča ohranjanje nizke ravni zalog.
USD 150/t
V zvezi z zalogami v LRK Komisija kljub zahtevam, predloženim sodelujočim kitajskim proizvajalcem, in lastnim raziskavam spet ni mogla zbrati celovitih podatkov o stanju zalog v obdobju po preiskavi.
USD 130/t
Zainteresirane strani niso predložile pripomb v zvezi z ravnjo zalog.
USD 110/t

Zato je Komisija potrdila svojo ugotovitev iz uvodne izjave 151 začasne uredbe.

Drugi elementi: dobičkonosnost in količina naročil v Uniji s strani industrije Unije
Source: Platts, Bloomberg, CBA estimates Therefore, it can be assumed that prices for the product concerned will start to decrease again, once the impact of these exceptional circumstances concerning coking coal have faded out.
Posodobitev podatkov za čas po OP
One interested party mentioned that the analysis of the Commission is limited to June 2016, whereas prices of imports of the product concerned have been continuously increasing after June 2016.
Kot je navedeno v uvodni izjavi 155 začasne uredbe, so se količine zalog razvijale negativno.
It requested the Commission to take into consideration these most recent data.
Poleg tega je preiskava pokazala, da se je dobičkonosnost pritožnikov, ki predstavljajo približno 90 % celotne proizvodnje industrije Unije, še poslabšala.
Another interested party also mentioned that the prices of imports recently started increasing.
Glede na razpoložljive podatke za obdobje od julija 2015 do junija 2016 se je dobičkonosnost še poslabšala, čeprav je bil trend v zvezi s količinami zalog (v primerjavi z letom 2015) bolj pozitiven:
The Commission confirmed, as laid out in the table under recital (84), that Chinese import prices increased in the period July-September 2016.
Tabela 6
However, these interested parties failed to mention that prices increased globally, due to a rise in raw material prices, in particular of coking coal, as laid out in recital (85) above.
Razvoj dobičkonosnosti in količina naročil pritožnikov
Following definitive disclosure, the China Iron and Steel Association (CISA) argued again that the Commission was violating the general principle of Article 3(9) of the basic Regulation since a determination of a threat of material must ‘be based on facts and not based on an allegation, conjecture or remote possibility’.
Vir: Eurofer, preverjeni vsi podatki, razen podatkov v zadnjem stolpcu.
It referred in this context to ‘a particular context, which is made up out of mere possibilities’.
Opis
Second, it alleged that the statement of the Commission that the average import price during the most recent period July-September 2016 was below the cost of production of the Union industry at the end of the IP is misleading since such a comparison is based on two different periods, and therefore, it is not an ‘apple to apple’ comparison.
April 2015–marec 2016
Similar comments were received from an Italian user and from the other Chinese exporting producers.
Julij 2015– junij 2016
One of these Chinese exporting producers mentioned that the prices of imports have decreased by 13,5 % between January 2016 and September 2016.
Dobičkonosnost
Another Chinese exporting producer also commented that a trend of rising import prices is an indication that there is no threat of injury and referred in this respect to the case-law.
od – 3 % do – 5 %
The Commission took into consideration facts such as the data in Table 5, and interpreted these data, whereby a decrease in prices had been noted till June 2016, and thereafter an increase, mainly due to an increase in raw material prices as laid out in recital (85) above.
od – 7 % do – 9 %
Second, CISA itself does not provide an alternative plausible explanation for the evolution of Chinese import prices.
Količina naročil
Third, the Commission has not analysed the trend of Chinese prices as an isolated factor, but has taken a comprehensive approach.
Kitajsko združenje železarjev in jeklarjev (CISA) je po dokončnem razkritju trdilo, da so proizvajalci Unije zaradi povečanja količine naročil po OP prejeli več naročil in da je zato prihodnost industrije Unije pozitivna.
Concerning the allegation that the Commission misled the interested parties intentionally by comparing the average import price during the period July-September 2016 with the cost of production of the Union industry at the end of the IP, the Commission clearly distinguished both periods.
Tudi če bi proizvajalci Unije v zadnjem obdobju po OP morda lahko okrevali, to okrevanje zato ne bi nadomestilo znatnega povečanja izgub v istem obdobju.
Furthermore, in this context, it is important to highlight that the cost of production-data of the Union industry at the end of the IP were the most recent available data in this proceeding since post-IP data on the costs of production of the Union industry are not collected.
Ker ni bilo drugih pripomb, je Komisija ugotovila, da se je dobičkonosnost pritožnikov v zadnjem obdobju še poslabšala.
In any case, even if — hypothetically — the cost of production of the Union industry in the most recent period had decreased, this would not invalidate the fact that the level of Chinese prices in September 2016 had been still exerting an enormous prices pressure on the Union steel industry.
Zato ocena o grožnji neizogibne škode ob koncu leta 2015 zdaj ni bila razveljavljena.
Concerning the allegation that the Commission did not follow the case-law, the Commission noted that this argument is inoperative, as the Commission in the present case did analyse the development of prices of raw materials in the post-investigation period, as shown in recital (85).
Dodatno poslabšanje dobičkonosnosti v celotni prvi polovici leta 2016 je pravzaprav potrdilo, da je Komisija ta kazalnik točno ocenila.
Hence, this argument is rejected.
Predvidljivost in neizbežnost spremembe okoliščin
Even with the rising prices of Chinese import prices from July 2016 onwards, and absent any other comments, the post-IP data on prices do as a whole not invalidate the finding that the Chinese price decreases had led to a threat of injury.
Člen 3(9) osnovne uredbe določa: „Sprememba okoliščin, ki bi ustvarila razmere, v katerih bi damping povzročil škodo, mora biti jasno predvidena in neposredno grozeča.“
This threat of injury was not removed by the recent rising Chinese import prices from July 2016 onwards.
Kot je določeno v uvodni izjavi 157 začasne uredbe, so bili vsi zgoraj navedeni dejavniki analizirani in preverjeni za obdobje preiskave.
As set out in recital (85), even this increased price level does not stop the enormous price depression which puts the EU industry into an unsustainable position when comparing the increased Chinese prices with the cost of production of the Union producers at the end of the investigation period.
Natančneje, dobičkonosnost vzorčenih proizvajalcev Unije je dosegla nevzdržno raven, ki je v četrtem četrtletju leta 2015, ko je bilo najbolj čutiti kitajski pritisk na cene, znašala – 10 %.
Finally, the Commission concluded that increasing import prices might only be a temporary trend, which is likely to stop once the reasons for the raw material price increases have faded out.
Poleg tega so podatki iz obdobja po preiskavi razkrili, da se je ta negativni trend dobičkonosnosti Unije, ki se je začel v drugi polovici leta 2015, nadaljeval še v prvi polovici leta 2016.
The Chinese exporting producers had an aggressive price setting in the Union market, in particular in the second half of 2015 and the first half of 2016.
Glede na razpoložljive podatke za obdobje od julija do septembra 2016 je položaj neenoten.
If no measures are taken, and taking into account the massive existing Chinese excess capacity in steel, including the product concerned, Chinese exporting producers could maintain an aggressive price strategy, lowering their sales prices to minimal levels.
Medtem ko se je obseg kitajskega uvoza zmanjšal, je bila presežna zmogljivost še vedno grozeča.
Level of inventories
Kar zadeva zvišanje kitajskih cen v istem zadnjem obdobju, ostaja dejstvo, da je raven kitajskih cen septembra 2016 še vedno ustvarjala velik cenovni pritisk na jeklarsko industrijo Unije, tudi če so se hipotetično stroški proizvodnje industrije Unije v tem obdobju znižali.
Concerning the level of inventories, recital (147) of the provisional Regulation mentioned that the Commission did not consider this factor of any particular significance, mainly because Union producers produce on order, a feature which enables them to keep their inventory at low levels.
To pomeni, da je bila grožnja škode po koncu obdobja preiskave neizbežna in predvidljiva.
With regards to stocks in the PRC, the Commission was again unable to find comprehensive post-investigation data on stocks despite requests to Chinese cooperating producers and its own researches.
Zato je Komisija potrdila, da ob koncu obdobja preiskave obstajajo jasno predvidljive in neizbežne spremembe okoliščin, ki bodo ustvarile razmere, v katerih bo damping povzročil škodo.
Nevertheless, the Commission found that steel inventories in the warehouses of 40 major Chinese cities reportedly decreased to 8,89 million tonnes late October 2016 from 9,41 million tonnes late September 2016.
Sklepne ugotovitve o grožnji škode
Furthermore, the steel inventories of 80 major Chinese mills amounted to 13,46 million tonnes late September 2016 [17] compared to 16,07 million tonnes late September 2015.
Kot je navedeno v uvodni izjavi 158 začasne uredbe, so začeli v drugi polovici 2015 skoraj vsi kazalniki škode strmo padati, čeprav je industrija Unije leta 2014 in v prvih dveh četrtletjih leta 2015 okrevala.
No comments were received from interested parties concerning the level of inventories.
Glede na razpoložljive podatke za obdobje od julija do septembra 2016 je položaj neenoten.
In conclusion, steel inventories in the PRC remained at about the same levels after 30 June 2016 as the one laid out in recital (150) of the provisional Regulation.
Medtem ko se je obseg kitajskega uvoza zmanjšal, je bila presežna zmogljivost še vedno grozeča, cene pa so bile kljub nedavnemu zvišanju še vedno nižje od stroškov proizvodnje industrije Unije.
The Commission therefore confirmed its finding in recital (151) of the provisional Regulation.
Glede na to analizo je Komisija sklenila, da obstaja grožnja jasno predvidljive in neizogibne škode industriji Unije ob koncu obdobja preiskave.
Other elements: Profitability and order intakes in the Union by the Union industry
Ob upoštevanju razvoja dogodkov po OP, analiziranega zgoraj, ta ocena ni bila razveljavljena.
Updating the post-IP data
Poleg tega je Komisija zavrnila trditve združenja CISA, predložene po dokončnem razkritju, da njena ocena ni bila v skladu s sodno prakso, pri čemer je navedla dve glavni razliki med svojim pristopom v obravnavanem primeru in pristopom, na podlagi katerega je bila sprejeta Uredba Sveta (ES) št. 926/2009 [18].
As set out in recital (155) of the provisional Regulation, order intakes developed negatively.
Prvič, kot je navedeno v uvodni izjavi 119 začasne uredbe, je bilo ugotovljeno, da je bila industrija Unije v obravnavanem primeru ob koncu obdobja preiskave v slabem položaju, vendar ne tako slabem, da bi v obravnavanem obdobju utrpela znatno škodo v smislu člena 3(5) osnovne uredbe.
In addition, the investigation established a further deterioration of the profitability of the complainants which represent about 90 % of the total production of the Union industry.
Drugič, Komisija je, kolikor je bilo mogoče v obravnavanem primeru, izvedla poglobljeno analizo in oceno podatkov iz obdobja po OP, da bi v skladu s sodno prakso potrdila ali razveljavila svoje ugotovitve.
The available data for the period July 2015 up to June 2016 show a further deterioration in profitability, despite a more positive trend (compared to 2015) for its order intakes as follows:
VZROČNA ZVEZA
Table 6
Zainteresirana stran je ponovila, da je imela Rusija v obdobju preiskave največji obseg uvoza v Unijo in da je tržni delež kitajskega uvoza, čeprav se je v celotnem obravnavanem obdobju večal, ostal zelo majhen, in sicer je znašal približno 4 %.
Evolution of profitability and order intakes of the Complainants
Druga zainteresirana stran je po dokončnem razkritju navedla tudi, da sprejetje ugotovitve v zvezi z vzročnostjo onemogoča le 4-odstotni tržni delež kitajskega uvoza.
Source: Eurofer, all verified except last column
Te trditve so bile že obravnavane v uvodnih izjavah od 177 do 188 začasne uredbe.
Description
Kar zadeva tržni delež, je v uvodni izjavi 77 začasne uredbe navedeno, da se je skupni tržni delež kitajskega uvoza v Unijo v obravnavanem obdobju povečal za več kot petkrat.
April 2015-March 2016
Po navedbah pritožnika bi bilo primerno sešteti učinke dampinškega uvoza iz Kitajske in dampinškega uvoza iz petih drugih držav, zajetih v preiskavi, ki trenutno poteka.
July 2015-June 2016
Pritožnik je po dokončnem razkritju znova poudaril to stališče.
Profitability
Komisiji se je v tem primeru zdelo nemogoče sešteti dampinški uvoz z združitvijo dveh preiskav.
3 % to – 5 %
Koncept uvoza, ki je v skladu s členom 3(4) osnovne uredbe „istočasno predmet protidampinških preiskav“, pomeni uvoz, zajet v isti preiskavi, ali uvoz, zajet v dveh različnih preiskavah, ki potekata istočasno in katerih obdobje preiskave je isto ali se večinoma prekriva.
5 % to – 7 %
V obravnavanem primeru imata preiskavi različni obdobji preiskave, ki se prekrivata le šest mesecev.
7 % to – 9 %
Komisija je na podlagi navedenega potrdila svoje sklepe iz uvodnih izjav 197 in 198 začasne uredbe.
Order intakes
INTERES UNIJE
Following definitive disclosure, the China Iron and Steel Association (CISA) argued that, because the order intakes in the post-IP have increased, the Union producers have received more orders and therefore that the Union industry has a positive future.
Interes industrije Unije
The Commission agreed that the order intakes had increased slightly, but referred at the same time to the record losses incurred by the complainants which also figured in this same table.
Pripomb v zvezi z interesom industrije Unije ni bilo, zato je bil sklep iz uvodne izjave 203 začasne uredbe potrjen.
In conclusion, and absent any other comments, the Commission found a further deterioration of the profitability of the complainants in the most recent period.
Pripomb v zvezi z interesom uvoznikov ni bilo, zato je Komisija potrdila tudi svoj sklep iz uvodne izjave 204 začasne uredbe.
Accordingly, the assessment that a threat of imminent injury existed at the end of 2015 has not been invalidated.
Interes uporabnikov
Rather the further deterioration in profitability in the entire first half of 2016 confirmed the accuracy of the Commission's assessment of this indicator.
Nekateri uporabniki so po začasnem razkritju trdili, da uvedba protidampinških ukrepov proti zadevni državi ne bi bila v interesu Unije.
Foreseeability and imminence of the change in circumstances
Trdili so, da bi bili protidampinški ukrepi v nasprotju z interesi uporabnikov, ker bi:
Article 3(9) of the basic Regulation provides that ‘… the change in circumstances which would create a situation in which the dumping would cause injury must have been clearly foreseen and must be imminent’.
imeli protikonkurenčni učinek in
As set out in recital (157) of the provisional Regulation, all the abovementioned factors have been analysed and verified with respect to the investigation period.
bi povzročili večji obseg uvoza izdelkov s konca proizvodne verige, proizvedenih v tretjih državah.
In particular, the profitability of the sampled Union producers reached the unsustainable level of – 10 % in the fourth quarter of 2015 when Chinese price pressure was felt most.
Trditev o protikonkurenčnem učinku protidampinških ukrepov je bila obravnavana že v uvodnih izjavah od 205 do 212 začasne uredbe.
