Raven zalog se je do leta 2016 povečala za 8 %, v obravnavanem obdobju pa za 82 %.
Inventories of LAM in Union Industry
To veliko povečanje zalog ob koncu obravnavanega obdobja je industrija Unije pojasnila kot posledico sezonske prodaje, nastalo pa je zgolj zaradi dejstva, da se obdobje preiskave v zvezi s pregledom konča julija, vrhunec prodaje vzvodnih mehanizmov pa je običajno decembra, medtem ko je proizvodnja stabilna skozi vse leto.

The level of inventories increased by 8 % until 2016 and by 82 % over the period considered.
Preglednica 11
This sharp increase of stocks at the end of the period considered was explained by the Union industry as a seasonal sales effect which only occurred due to the fact that the review investigation period ends in July because the peak of the sales for LAM traditionally take place in December while production is stable throughout the year.

Skupno se je v obravnavanem obdobju zmanjšal za 58 %.
Profitability of the Union industry increased over the first two years by 34 % and declined sharply during the review investigation period.
Naložbe industrije Unije v proizvodnjo podobnega izdelka so se leta 2015 zmanjšale za 13 %, nato so se leta 2016 znova nekoliko povečale, in sicer za 4 %, v obdobju preiskave v zvezi s pregledom pa so se povečale še za 12 %.
Overall it decreased by 10 % during the period considered, but it remained above the target profit of 5 % as established in the previous expiry review.
Posledica je bila skromno 3-odstotno povečanje v obravnavanem obdobju.

Sklep o škodi
The investments of the Union industry in the production of the like product decrease by 13 % in 2015, then slightly increased again by 4 % in 2016 and increased further by 12 % during the review investigation period.
Preiskava je pokazala, da je lahko industrija Unije v obravnavanem obdobju zaradi veljavnih protidampinških dajatev še vedno okrevala po škodi, ki jo je utrpela pred tem.
The return on investment measures the gain or loss generated on an investment relative to the amount of money invested.
To je industriji Unije omogočilo vlaganje v ukrepe za povečanje produktivnosti, da bi se znižali stroški proizvodnje na enoto, medtem ko so se povprečni stroški dela zvišali.
During the period considered it started at 42 % and increased by 51 % after two years in 2016.
Uvoz vzvodnih mehanizmov iz LRK v obravnavanem obdobju je le malo vplival na stanje industrije Unije.
However, during the review investigation period the return on investment decreased to a level lower than at the beginning of the period considered, but still remained at 36 %.
Zaradi veljavnih ukrepov je bil njegov tržni delež skozi celotno obdobje majhen.
Conclusion on injury
Kljub temu se je uvoz vzvodnih mehanizmov iz Kitajske ohranil na trgu Unije, razen v obdobju preiskave v zvezi s pregledom, kar kaže na nadaljnji interes.
The investigation showed that during the period considered, due to the anti-dumping duties in place, the Union industry was able to continue to recover from the injury previously suffered.
Komisija zato ugotavlja, da je imela industrija Unije koristi od veljavnih protidampinških ukrepov, saj je še naprej okrevala od učinka preteklega škodljivega dampinga.
Injury indicators like production, capacity utilisation and market share all showed positive trends and profitability remained the whole period above the target profit.
Verjetnost ponovitve škode
This enabled the Union industry to invest in productivity increasing measures, to reduce the unit cost of production while average labour costs increased.
Kot je omenjeno v uvodni izjavi 31, ni bilo mogoče sprejeti pozitivne ugotovitve v zvezi z obstojem dampinga.
LAM imports from the PRC during the period considered only had a limited impact on the Union industry's situation.
Vendar je bilo ugotovljeno, da obstaja verjetnost ponovitve dampinga v primeru izteka protidampinških ukrepov (glej uvodno izjavo 60).
Due to the measures in force, their market share was low throughout the whole period.
Komisija je v skladu s členom 11(2) osnovne uredbe zato preverila, ali bi se v primeru izteka veljavnosti ukrepov proti LRK znatna škoda ponovila.
Nevertheless, Chinese LAM imports remained present in the Union market, except during the review investigation period, indicating a continued interest.
Za določitev verjetnosti ponovitve škode so bili proučeni naslednji elementi: (i) proizvodna zmogljivost in prosta zmogljivost v LRK, (ii) možne ravni cen kitajskega uvoza v primeru izteka ukrepov, (iii) politika kitajskih proizvajalcev izvoznikov v drugih tretjih državah, (iv) privlačnost trga Unije in (v) učinek kitajskega uvoza na stanje industrije Unije v primeru izteka ukrepov.
The Commission thus concludes that the Union Industry has benefitted from the anti-dumping measures in place, as it continued to recover from the effect of past injurious dumping.
Proizvodna zmogljivost in prosta zmogljivost v LRK
Likelihood of recurrence of injury
Kot je pojasnjeno v uvodnih izjavah 52 in 53, imajo proizvajalci iz LRK na Kitajskem precejšnjo proizvodno zmogljivost, posledično pa tudi prosto zmogljivost, ki močno presega celotno potrošnjo Unije v obdobju preiskave v zvezi s pregledom.
As mentioned in recital (31), it was not possible to establish an affirmative determination of dumping.
Poleg tega ni bilo ugotovljenih elementov, ki bi lahko kazali morebitno znatno povečanje domačega povpraševanja po vzvodnih mehanizmih v LRK ali na trgih drugih tretjih držav v bližnji prihodnosti.
It was however established that there was a likelihood of recurrence of dumping should the anti-dumping measures be allowed to lapse (see recital (60)).
Glede na zmanjšanje porabe vzvodnih mehanizmov v Uniji v obravnavanem obdobju je Komisija ugotovila, da domače povpraševanje na Kitajskem ali trgih drugih tretjih držav ne bi moglo absorbirati razpoložljive proste zmogljivosti.
In accordance with Article 11(2) of the basic Regulation, the Commission therefore examined whether material injury would recur should measures against the PRC be allowed to lapse.
Možne ravni cen kitajskega uvoza
To establish the likelihood of recurrence of injury, the following elements were analysed: (i) the production capacity and spare capacity available in the PRC, (ii) possible price levels of Chinese imports should measures be allowed to lapse, (iii) the behaviour of Chinese exporting producers in other third countries, (iv) the attractiveness of the Union market and (v) the impact of Chinese imports on the situation of the Union industry should measures be allowed to lapse.
Kot je navedeno v uvodni izjavi 47, proizvajalci izvozniki iz Kitajske v preiskavi niso sodelovali.
Production capacity and spare capacity available in the PRC
Zato je bilo ugotovljeno, da so izvozne cene pri izvozu iz LRK v tretje države, navedene v zahtevku za pregled, najustreznejša podlaga za možne ravni cen kitajskega uvoza.
As explained in recitals (52) and (53), producers in the PRC have significant production capacity in China and, as a result, spare capacity which largely exceeds the total Union consumption during the review investigation period.
Ravni cen tega izvoza so se štele tudi za razumno oceno možnih prihodnjih ravni cen za Unijo v primeru izteka ukrepov.
In addition, there were no elements found that could indicate any significant increase of domestic demand of LAM in the PRC or in any other third country market in the near future.
Kot je pojasnjeno v uvodnih izjavah 42 in 48, so bile kitajske izvozne cene pri izvozu v tretje države za 22,1–32,2 % nižje od cen industrije Unije v obdobju preiskave v zvezi s pregledom.
Considering the decline of the Union LAM consumption during the period considered, the Commission concluded that domestic demand in China or in other third country markets could not absorb the available spare capacity.
Podobno je bilo za stopnje nelojalnega nižanja prodajnih cen ugotovljeno, da so znašale 8,9–17,8 %.
Possible price levels of Chinese imports
Na tej podlagi je mogoče skleniti, da bo uvoz iz Kitajske v primeru razveljavitve protidampinških ukrepov zelo verjetno še bolj cenovno pritiskal na industrijo Unije.
As mentioned in recital (47) there was no cooperation from exporting producers in China.
Kot je navedeno v uvodnih izjavah 55 do 57, je trg Unije največji enotni trg za vzvodne mehanizme, poleg tega pa so na njem privlačne cene za kitajske proizvajalce.
For this reason, the most appropriate basis for possible price levels of Chinese imports was found to be the export prices from the PRC to third countries contained in the request for review.
Drugih velikih izvoznih trgov, ki bi lahko absorbirali kitajsko presežno zmogljivost, ni, saj se vzvodni mehanizmi uporabljajo le na omejenem številu trgov.
The price levels of these exports were also considered to be a reasonable estimate for possible future price levels to the Union if measures were allowed to lapse.
Iz navedenih razlogov imajo kitajski proizvajalci izvozniki velik interes za preusmeritev svojega izvoza v Unijo, kjer bi dosegali višje cene, hkrati pa bi lahko še vedno močno nelojalno znižali prodajne cene industrije Unije.
As explained in recitals (42) and (48), the Chinese export prices to third countries were between 22,1 % and 32,2 % lower than the prices of the Union industry during the review investigation period.
Poleg tega bi imeli interes za izvoz vsaj dela prostih zmogljivosti po nizkih cenah na trg Unije.
Likewise, undercutting margins were found to be between 8,9 % and 17,8 %.
Zato se ugotovi, da imajo proizvajalci izvozniki iz LRK zmožnost in spodbudo za precejšnje povečanje obsega izvoza vzvodnih mehanizmov v Unijo po dampinških cenah, s čimer bi se v primeru izteka protidampinških ukrepov znatno nelojalno znižale cene industrije Unije.
On this basis, it is concluded that imports from China will very likely exert high price pressure on the Union industry, should the anti-dumping measures be repealed.
Vpliv na industrijo Unije
As mentioned in recitals (55) to (57), the Union market is the largest single market for LAM and additionally, the prices are attractive for Chinese producers.
Povečanje uvoza po nizkih cenah bi ustvarilo znaten cenovni pritisk na trg Unije, ki je cenovno občutljiv.
There are no other major export markets to absorb the Chinese excess capacity because LAM are only used in a limited number of markets.
Če bi industrija Unije ohranila sedanjo raven cen, ne bi mogla ohraniti obsega prodaje in tržnega deleža zaradi uvoza iz Kitajske po nizkih cenah.
Those reasons are a high incentive for Chinese exporting producers to divert their exports to the Union where they would achieve higher prices, while still being able to significantly undercut the Union industry sales price.
Zelo verjetno je, da bi se kitajski tržni delež v primeru izteka veljavnosti ukrepov hitro povečal.
In addition, they would have an incentive to export at least part of their spare capacities at low prices to the Union market.
To bi se zelo verjetno zgodilo v škodo industrije Unije.
It is therefore concluded that the exporting producers in the PRC have the potential and incentive to substantially raise the volume of their exports of LAM to the Union at dumped prices and substantially undercutting the prices of the Union industry, should the anti-dumping measures be allowed to lapse.
Izguba obsega prodaje bi povzročila nižjo stopnjo izkoriščenosti in zvišanje povprečnih stroškov proizvodnje.
Impact on the Union industry
Posledično bi se finančni položaj industrije Unije poslabšal, zmanjšala pa bi se tudi njena dobičkonosnost, ki je bila v obravnavanem obdobju sicer nad ciljnim dobičkom, med letom 2016 in obdobjem preiskave v zvezi s pregledom pa se je zmanjšala za več kot 40 %.
An increase of low priced imports would create significant price pressure on the Union market which is price sensitive.
V takem primeru bi vsako zvišanje stroškov povzročilo kratkoročno zmanjšanje dobičkonosnosti pod ciljni dobiček, zaradi česar bi bila izničena pretekla prizadevanja industrije Unije, zaradi katerih ji je uspelo do zdaj ohranjati zahtevano raven naložb, da je ostala konkurenčna.
The Union industry, under the scenario that it keeps the current price level, will not be able to maintain their sales volume and market share against the low priced imports from China.
Če pa bi se industrija Unije odločila znižati svoje ravni cen, da bi poskusila ohraniti obseg prodaje in tržni delež, bi se njen finančni položaj skoraj takoj poslabšal.
It is highly likely that the Chinese market share would increase rapidly if the measures were allowed to lapse.
Če bi morala industrija Unije prodajne cene na trgu Unije dejansko znižati za 8,9 %, kolikor znaša ugotovljeno najmanjše nelojalno nižanje prodajnih cen (glej uvodno izjavo 121), da bi jih izenačila s cenami uvoženih kitajskih izdelkov, bi z njimi dejansko takoj začela ustvarjati izgubo.
This would be most likely at the expense of the Union industry.
Tudi v tem primeru bi učinek izteka ukrepov verjetno neposredno negativno vplival na industrijo Unije, ker bi neposredno povzročil ustvarjanje izgube.
Losing sales volume would lead to a lower utilisation rate and an increase in the average cost of production.
Srednjeročno to ne bi bilo vzdržno in bi povzročilo zapiranje proizvodnih obratov ter nazadnje izginotje industrije Unije.
This would lead to a deterioration of the financial situation of the Union industry and to a decrease of its profitability which, while being above the target profit throughout the period considered had decreased between 2016 and the review investigation period by more than 40 %.
Opozoriti je treba, da se je število proizvajalcev Unije že v obravnavanem obdobju zmanjšalo s šestih na tri.
Under this scenario, any increase in cost would lead the profitability to fall below the target profit in the short term which would remove the past recovery efforts made by the Union industry which up to now has been able to maintain the required level of investments to remain competitive.
Zato je mogoče ugotoviti, da obstaja velika verjetnost, da bi iztek obstoječih ukrepov privedel do ponovitve škode zaradi kitajskega uvoza vzvodnih mehanizmov ter da bi se gospodarski položaj industrije Unije verjetno poslabšal in povzročil znatno škodo.
However, should the Union industry decide to lower its price levels in an attempt to keep its sales volume and market share the deterioration of its financial situation would occur almost immediately.
Dejstvo, da zdaj na trg Unije prihaja precej manj vzvodnih mehanizmov, uvoženih iz Kitajske, kot pred uvedbo ukrepov, kaže, da so bili s sedanjimi protidampinškimi dajatvami uspešno ponovno vzpostavljeni neizkrivljeni konkurenčni pogoji med kitajskimi izvozniki izdelka, ki se pregleduje, in industrijo Unije.
Indeed, if the Union industry would have to lower its sales prices on the Union market by 8,9 %, the lower range of the undercutting found (see recital (121)) in order to match the prices of the incoming Chinese products, they would immediately become loss making.
Kot pa je navedeno v uvodnih izjavah 128 in 130, je Komisija ugotovila, da bi se škoda v primeru izteka ukrepov zelo verjetno ponovila.
Also under this scenario, the expiry of the measures is likely to have a direct negative impact on the Union industry, because it would directly lead to a loss making situation.
Komisija ugotavlja, da bi razveljavitev ukrepov po vsej verjetnosti povzročila znatno povečanje dampinškega uvoza vzvodnih mehanizmov iz Kitajske po cenah, ki bi nelojalno nižale cene industrije Unije, s tem pa bi se škoda, ki jo je industrija Unije utrpela, ko so se ukrepi prvič začeli izvajati, znova pojavila.
In the mid-term, this would not be sustainable and lead to closures of the production sites and eventually to the disappearance of the Union industry.
Posledično bi bil obstoj industrije Unije resno ogrožen.
It has to be noted that already during the period considered, the number of Union producers has decreased from six to three.
INTERES UNIJE
Therefore, it can be concluded that there is a strong likelihood that the expiry of the existing measures would lead to a recurrence of injury from Chinese imports of LAM and that the economic situation of the Union industry would likely deteriorate and lead to material injury.
Komisija je v skladu s členom 21 osnovne uredbe proučila, ali bi bila ohranitev veljavnih protidampinških ukrepov v nasprotju z interesom Unije kot celote.
The fact that Chinese LAM imports are currently entering the Union market in much lower numbers than before the imposition of measures shows that the current anti-dumping duties successfully re-established undistorted competitive conditions between Chinese exporters of the product under review and the Union industry.
Ugotavljanje interesa Unije je temeljilo na oceni vseh vključenih interesov, ki zajema tudi interese industrije Unije, uvoznikov in uporabnikov.
However, as set out in recital (128) and (130), the Commission concluded that there is a strong likelihood that the expiry of the measures would lead to recurrence of injury.
Vse zainteresirane strani so imele možnost, da izrazijo stališča v skladu s členom 21(2) osnovne uredbe.
The Commission concludes that a repeal of the measures would in all likelihood result in a significant increase of Chinese dumped LAM imports at prices undercutting the Union industry prices and resulting in re-establishing the injurious situation suffered by the Union industry at the time when measures were first implemented.
Spomniti bi bilo treba, da se sprejetje ukrepov v prejšnjem pregledu zaradi izteka ukrepa ni zdelo v nasprotju z interesom Unije.
As a consequence, the viability of the Union industry would be at serious risk.
Poleg tega dejstvo, da je ta preiskava pregled zaradi izteka ukrepa, torej analiza stanja, v katerem že veljajo protidampinški ukrepi, omogoča oceno vseh morebitnih negativnih učinkov trenutno veljavnih protidampinških ukrepov na zadevne strani.
UNION INTEREST
Na podlagi tega je bilo proučeno, ali kljub ugotovitvam o verjetnosti ponovitve dampinga in ponovitve škode obstajajo utemeljeni razlogi, ki bi privedli do sklepa, da ohranitev ukrepov v tem konkretnem primeru ni v interesu Unije.
In accordance with Article 21 of the basic Regulation, the Commission examined whether maintaining the existing anti-dumping measures would be against the interest of the Union as a whole.
Interes industrije Unije
The determination of the Union interest was based on an appreciation of all interests involved, including those of the Union industry, importers and users.
Preiskava je pokazala, da bi morebitni iztek ukrepov verjetno pomembno negativno vplival na industrijo Unije.
All interested parties were given the opportunity to make their views known pursuant to Article 21(2) of the basic Regulation.
Zaradi tega bi se hitro zmanjšala njena dobičkonosnost oziroma bi industrija Unije celo ustvarjala izgubo, kar bi negativno vplivalo na druge dejavnike škode, kot so obseg proizvodnje, stopnja izkoriščenosti, naložbe in zaposlenost.
It should be recalled that, in the previous expiry review, the adoption of measures was considered not to be against the interest of the Union.
Dolgoročno tak položaj ne bi bil vzdržen, zaradi česar bi morali proizvajalci Unije končati svoje dejavnosti na trgu Unije.
Furthermore, the fact that this investigation is an expiry review, thus analysing a situation in which anti-dumping measures have already been in place, allows the assessment of any undue negative impact on the parties concerned by the current anti-dumping measures.
V preteklosti je industrija Unije dokazala, da je sposobna preživeti ter da ustvarja pozitivne gospodarske in finančne rezultate.
On that basis, it was examined whether, despite the conclusions on the likelihood of a recurrence of dumping and recurrence of injury, compelling reasons existed which would lead to the conclusion that it is not in the Union interest to maintain measures in this particular case.
Ko dampinškega uvoza iz Kitajske praktično ni bilo, ji je uspelo ohraniti dobičkonosnost s stopnjo dobička, ki presega ciljni dobiček.
Interest of the Union industry
Zato je ohranitev veljavnih protidampinških ukrepov v interesu industrije Unije.
The investigation has shown that should the measures expire, this would likely have a significant negative effect on the Union industry.
Interes uvoznikov
This would shortly lead to a decrease in profitability and even in a loss making situation of Union industry, having also a negative impact on other injury factors such as production volume, utilisation rates, investments and employment.
Kot je navedeno v uvodni izjavi 16, noben uvoznik ni niti sodeloval v tej preiskavi niti predložil zahtevanih informacij.
In the longer term, such situation will not be viable, forcing the Union producers to close their operations in the Union market.
Spomniti je treba, da je bilo v prejšnjih preiskavah ugotovljeno, da učinek uvedbe ukrepov na uvoznike ne bi bil znaten.
In the past, the Union industry proved to be a viable industry with positive economic and financial results.
Ker ni nasprotnih dokazov, je torej mogoče potrditi, da zdaj veljavni ukrepi niso bistveno negativno vplivali na finančni položaj uvoznikov in da nadaljevanje ukrepov ne bi čezmerno vplivalo nanje.
In the virtual absence of dumped imports from China, it managed to remain profitable with profit margin exceeding the target profit.
Interes uporabnikov
Therefore, maintaining the anti-dumping measures in force is in the interest of the Union industry.
Uvozniki vzvodnih mehanizmov so običajno tudi njihovi uporabniki, saj jih uvažajo zaradi proizvodnje fasciklov z vzvodnim mehanizmom.
