The latter are based on data contained in the questionnaire replies from the sampled Union producers and verified during the investigation.
[16–18]
In the last expiry review, as well as in the 2008 review, the injury indicators were overall positive and the Union industry was not injured.
Izkoriščenost zmogljivosti
As this investigation is based on a different sample, no trend can be inferred directly from comparing the data in this RIP and this period considered with the last expiry review on some elements.
Vzorčene družbe
Production, production capacity and capacity utilisation
Obseg proizvodnje vzorčenih družb
The current expiry review has confirmed the findings of the previous investigations that gathering accurate and reliable data on capacity and production of the product concerned is a complex exercise, notably as liquid ammonium nitrate can be used to produce the solid product but also other downstream products.
Proizvodna zmogljivost vzorčenih družb
Statistical distortions can occur due to the existence of multi-purpose plants that can switch quickly production to or from other fertilisers.
Izkoriščenost zmogljivosti vzorčenih družb
A low capacity utilisation rate for the product concerned is therefore a less meaningful indicator of the overall economic situation of the Union industry.
Ocenjena proizvodnja v Rusiji je znašala približno 10 milijonov metričnih ton, v Uniji pa več kot 7 milijonov.
Bearing in mind these caveats, the total Union production, production capacity and capacity utilisation, as well as the same indicators for the sampled companies, developed over the period considered as shown in Table 5:
Raven proizvodnje proizvajalcev Unije je podobna ravni pri zadnjem pregledu zaradi izteka ukrepa.

Kar zadeva vzorčene družbe, podatki niso pomembni, saj se je obseg prodaje očitno povečal predvsem zaradi prenehanja skupnega podjetja med dvema vzorčenima družbama v obravnavanem obdobju.
Capacity utilisation sampled companies
Tržni delež celotne industrije Unije je v obravnavanem obdobju znašal več kot 90 %, tako kot tudi pri pregledu zaradi izteka ukrepa iz leta 2014 (92 % v OPP, 93 % leta 2010).
Compared with an estimated production of around 10 million metric tonnes in Russia, the production was above 7 million in the Union.
V tem OPP se je tržni delež proizvajalcev Unije povečal na 96 %.
The level of production by Union producers is similar to the one in the last expiry review.
V obdobju prvotne preiskave 1999–2000, na kateri temelji pregled iz leta 2002, je tržni delež znašal 68 % (na podlagi podatkov za Unijo pred širitvijo).
Production capacity remained stable over the period considered.
Zaposlenost in produktivnost
Production of the sampled companies went up, resulting in a higher capacity utilisation.
Zaposlenost in produktivnost petih vzorčenih družb sta se v obravnavanem obdobju gibali, kot je prikazano v preglednici 7:
For the overall Union industry the capacity utilisation has been stable during the period considered.

Sales volumes to unrelated customers have slightly increased during the period considered.
Preglednica 8
For the sampled companies only the data is not meaningful, as there is an apparent increase largely due to the end of a Joint Venture between two sampled companies during the period considered.
Prodajne cene v Uniji in proizvodni stroški na enoto (v EUR/tono)
The total Union industry had a market share of more than 90 % in the period considered, as in the 2014 expiry review (92 % in the RIP, 93 % in 2010).
Povprečna prodajna cena na enoto v Uniji na podlagi franko tovarna
In this RIP the Union producers' market share goes up to 96 %.
Proizvodni stroški na enoto
In the original investigation period of 1999-2000, for the 2002 review, the market share was 68 % (based on Union before enlargement).
Prodajna cena industrije Unije na enoto za nepovezane stranke v Uniji se je med letom 2014 in OPP močno znižala, in sicer za 30 %.
Employment and productivity
To znižanje prodajne cene je eden od glavnih trendov v obdobju, pri čemer se je cena z 268 EUR na tono leta 2014 znižala na 185 EUR v OPP.
Employment and productivity for the five sampled companies developed over the period considered as shown in Table 7:
Vložnik je trdil, da bi se morala cena glede na zniževanje cene plina, ki je glavna stroškovna postavka, še bolj znižati.
Table 7
Povprečni stroški proizvodnje na enoto se niso znižali tako zelo kot prodajna cena, in sicer so se znižali z 229 EUR na tono leta 2014 na 176 EUR v OPP.
Source: Verified questionnaire replies
Medtem se je obseg neto prodaje nepovezanim strankam zunaj Unije v obravnavanem obdobju skoraj podvojil (na 190926 metričnih ton), prodajna cena na enoto zunaj Unije pa se je prav tako močno zniževala.
Number of employees
Po razkritju je vložnik navedel, da se cene amonijevega nitrata v Združenem kraljestvu in Franciji po OPP zvišujejo ter da je zato položaj proizvajalcev Unije glede na stroške proizvodnje v OPP trden.
Productivity (metric tonnes/employee)
Komisija je izpostavila, da na stroške proizvodnje močno vpliva raven cen plina.
Employment remained rather stable throughout the period considered, with a decreasing trend.
Zato ni primerno primerjati izbranih prodajnih cen iz avgusta 2018 s stroški proizvodnje vzorčenih družb v OPP.
At the same time, productivity per employee has increased.
Vložnik je tudi navedel, da je prodaja zunaj Unije pokazala, da lahko proizvajalci Unije konkurirajo ruskim proizvajalcem.
Sales prices and factors affecting domestic prices
Preiskava Komisije se nanaša na razmere na trgu Unije.
The weighted average unit sales prices of the sampled Union producers to unrelated customers in the Union developed over the period considered as shown in Table 8:
Dejstvo, da lahko ruski proizvajalci izvozniki in industrija Unije konkurirajo na trgih drugih tretjih držav z drugačnimi značilnostmi trga, se ne nanaša neposredno na zadevno analizo.

Povprečni stroški dela na zaposlenega
The unit sales price of the Union industry to unrelated costumers in the Union saw a sharp decrease, by 30 %, between 2014 and the RIP.
Povprečna plača na zaposlenega (v EUR)
This decrease in sales price is a major trend in the period, with a decrease from EUR 268 per tonne in 2014 to EUR 185 in the RIP.
Povprečni stroški dela na zaposlenega so se v obravnavanem obdobju zvišali.
The Applicant claimed that the price should have decreased even more, in line with the decreasing price of gas, which is the main cost item.
Zaloge
The average unit cost of production has not decreased as sharply as the sales price: from EUR 229 per tonne in 2014 to EUR 176 in the RIP.
Ravni zalog vzorčenih družb so se v obravnavanem obdobju gibale, kot je prikazano v preglednici 10:
Meanwhile, during the period considered, net sales outside the Union to unrelated parties nearly doubled in volume (to 190926 metric tonnes), with the unit selling price outside the Union following the same sharp decreasing trend.
Preglednica 10
Following the disclosure, the Applicant submitted that AN prices have been rising in the UK and France after the RIP, and that therefore, taking the RIP cost of production, Union producers were in a strong position.
Končne zaloge (v metričnih tonah)
The Commission noted that the cost of production is highly influenced by the level of gas price.
Končne zaloge kot delež proizvodnje
Therefore, it is not appropriate to compare a selection of sales price from August 2018 with the cost of production of sampled companies during the RIP.
Končne zaloge so v obravnavanem obdobju nihale, in sicer so se med letoma 2014 in 2015 povečale, zatem pa močno zmanjšale.
The Applicant also submitted that sales outside the Union showed that Union producers can compete with Russian producers.
Dobičkonosnost, denarni tok, naložbe, donosnost naložb in zmožnost zbiranja kapitala
The Commission's investigation relates to the situation on the Union market.
Preglednica 11
The fact that Russian exporting producers and the Union industry may compete on other third country markets with different market characteristics does not directly relate to that analysis.

Donosnost naložb
Average wages per employee (EUR)
Kot je navedeno v oddelku 5.4.4, se je prodajna cena v obravnavanem obdobju znatno znižala, kar je povezano predvsem z nižjimi cenami plina, znižanje povprečnih stroškov proizvodnje na enoto pa ni bilo tako veliko.
Inventories
Ta odstotek je nižji od ciljnega dobička v višini 8 %.
Stock levels of the sampled companies developed over the period considered as shown in Table 10:
Vendar na dobičkonosnost precej vplivata uspešnost vzorčenega proizvajalca iz Združenega kraljestva ter znatno zvišanje prodajnih, splošnih in upravnih stroškov ter režijskih stroškov drugih dveh vzorčenih proizvajalcev v obravnavanem obdobju.
Table 10
Nasprotno pa je dobičkonosnost, ugotovljena pri pregledu iz leta 2002, za obdobje prvotne preiskave (od 1. julija 1999 do 30. junija 2000) znašala –18,0 %.
Closing stocks (in metric tonnes)
Zdi se, da sprememba dobičkonosnosti v obravnavanem obdobju ni povezana z izvozom iz Rusije, saj se je ta izvoz od leta 2014 zmanjšal, ampak s splošnim poslovnim ciklom in nekaterimi posebnimi elementi glede dveh družb/skupin.
Closing stocks as a percentage of production
Industrija Unije je tako kot v prejšnji preiskavi nasprotovala 8-odstotnemu ciljnemu dobičku in navedla, da ta industrija potrebuje znatne naložbe in vsaj 12-odstotni donos naložbenega kapitala.
The closing stocks fluctuate over the period considered, with an increase between 2014 and 2015, followed by a sharp decrease.
Združenje Fertilizers Europe je predložilo strokovno študijo, ki jo je naročilo, pri čemer je navedlo, da je za doseganje v povprečju 12-odstotnega donosa naložbenega kapitala potreben dobiček pred obdavčitvijo, ki v povprečju znaša 94 EUR na tono, kar ustreza 36-odstotni stopnji donosa od prodaje pred obdavčitvijo.
Profitability, cash flow, investments, return on investments and ability to raise capital
Denarni tok in donosnost naložb sta se med letom 2014 in OPP znatno zmanjšala.
Profitability, cash flow, investments and return on investments of the sampled companies developed over the period considered as shown in Table 11.
Neto denarni tok je zmožnost industrije Unije, da sama financira svoje dejavnosti.
Triggered by a comment from an interested party upon disclosure, the Commission updated the two rows regarding profitability to account for a technical error.
Njegovo gibanje je sledilo gibanju negativnega trenda dobičkonosnosti.

Medtem so naložbe v obravnavanem obdobju nihale, saj so se med letoma 2014 in 2016 povišale, v OPP pa znižale.
Cash flow (EUR)
Preiskava ni pokazala, da bi imeli vzorčeni proizvajalci Unije pri zbiranju kapitala težave.
Investments (EUR)
Sklep o položaju industrije Unije
Return on investments
Pri pregledu iz leta 2008 in zadnjem pregledu zaradi izteka ukrepa je bilo sklenjeno, da gospodarski položaj industrije Unije ne povzroča škode.
As set out in section 5.4.4 above, the sales price has seen a significant decline in the period considered, related notably to the lower gas prices, but the average unit cost of production has not decrease as sharply.
Pri tej preiskavi je veliko kazalnikov škode pokazalo mešano sliko in trend zmanjševanja.
Therefore, the profitability of the sampled Union producers decreased overall from 12,5 % in 2014 to 5,1 % during the RIP.
Prodajne cene negativno vplivajo na sliko o dobičkonosnosti.
This is below the target profit of 8 %.
Medtem ko so trendi finančnih kazalnikov, kot so dobičkonosnost, denarni tok in donosnost naložb, negativni, njihove absolutne ravni ne kažejo škode.
However, profitability is to a large extent influenced by the performance of the UK sampled producer and a large increase in SG&A and overheads for two other sampled producers during the period considered.
Tržni delež industrije Unije je v obravnavanem obdobju ostal večji od 90 %.
By contrast, in the 2002 review, for the original investigation period (1 July 1999 to 30 June 2000) profitability was – 18,0 %.
Kazalniki škode kažejo negativen trend finančnega uspeha in gospodarskega položaja industrije.
The change in profitability in the period considered appears not to be linked to Russian exports, as these exports have decreased since 2014, but to an overall business cycle, as well as to some specific elements for two companies/groups.
Vendar so razmere veliko boljše kot pri pregledu iz leta 2002, ko je dobičkonosnost v obdobju preiskave znašala – 18 %, tržni delež industrije Unije pa 68 % (pred širitvijo Unije).
As in the previous investigations, the Union industry contested the target profit of 8 % and claimed that this industry needs significant investment and a ROCE of minimum 12 %.
Komisija je zato sklenila, da industrija Unije ni utrpela znatne škode v smislu člena 3(5) osnovne uredbe, čeprav ni tako zdrava kot pri zadnjem pregledu zaradi izteka ukrepa in je bil ugotovljen trend zmanjševanja, povezan predvsem z zniževanjem cen.
Fertilizers Europe submitted an expert study it had ordered claiming that to achieve an average ROCE of 12 %, an average pre-tax profit per tonne of EUR 94, the equivalent of a pre-tax return on sales (ROS) margin of 36 %, is needed.
VERJETNOST PONOVITVE ŠKODE
Cash flow and return on investment decreased significantly between 2014 and the RIP.
Komisija je ocenila, kakšen bi verjetno bil položaj industrije Unije, če bi se ukrepi ukinili.
The net cash flow is the ability of the Union industry to self-finance their activities.
Kot je navedeno v oddelku 1.4.3.2, je Komisija v ta namen zbrala podatke sodelujočih ruskih proizvajalcev izvoznikov, na primer o prodajnih cenah, proizvodnji in prosti zmogljivosti.
Its development followed that of profitability in a negative trend.
Razpoložljiva prosta zmogljivost v Rusiji
The return on investments is the profit in percentage of the net book value of investments.
Pri zadnjem pregledu zaradi izteka ukrepa je ugotovljena prosta zmogljivost znašala približno 1 milijon ton (za celotno proizvodno zmogljivost 9,6 milijona ton).
Its development largely mirrored the development of profitability in a negative trend.
Izkoriščenost zmogljivosti presega 95 % in bo v naslednjih letih predvidoma ostala na tej ravni.
Meanwhile, the investments fluctuated during the period considered, with an increase between 2014 and 2016 but a decrease in the RIP.
Združenje Fertilizers Europe je navedlo, da prosta zmogljivost Rusije znaša 1,3 milijona ton ali 18 % trga Unije.
The investigation did not reveal any difficulties encountered by the sampled Union producers in raising capital.
Po razkritju je ponovilo to trditev in se sklicevalo tudi na ugotovitve Komisije pri zadnjem pregledu zaradi izteka ukrepa.
Conclusion on the situation of the Union industry
Rusko združenje RFPA je navedlo, da je ruska prosta zmogljivost znašala približno 174000 metričnih ton (ocena Fertecona), tj. približno 2 % potrošnje Unije.
The 2008 review and the last expiry review both concluded that the economic situation of the Union industry was non-injurious.
Navedlo je, da ocena združenja Fertilizers Europe ni bila pravilna, saj je upoštevala le trden amonijev nitrat, in da je treba uporabiti podatke Fertecona.
In this investigation many injury indicators show a mixed picture and a downward trend.
Kot je Komisija ugotovila v zadnjem pregledu zaradi izteka ukrepa, ruski proizvajalci izvozniki običajno poročajo o svoji vgrajeni zmogljivosti na podlagi nazivne teoretične zmogljivosti.
Sales prices are negatively influencing the profitability picture.
Komisija tudi v tej preiskavi ni upoštevala nazivne zmogljivosti, ki so jo navedle ruske sodelujoče družbe, saj je njihova proizvodnja dejansko presegla njihovo teoretično zmogljivost.
While trends of the financial indicators such as profitability, cash flow and return of investments are negative, their absolute levels do not show injury.
Ocenjena izkoriščenost zmogljivosti dveh sodelujočih proizvajalcev izvoznikov je bila večja od 94 %.
The injury indicators show that the financial performance and economic state of the industry follow a negative trend.
Ugotovila je, da je zmogljivost v Rusiji znašala približno 11 milijonov ton, prosta zmogljivost pa 0,6 milijona ton.
However, the situation is much healthier than in the 2002 review, where profitability was – 18 % in the investigation period and the market share of the Union industry was 68 % (before Union enlargement).
Ta količina ustreza 7,7-odstotni potrošnji Unije, ki znaša približno 7,9 milijona ton.
The Commission therefore concluded that the Union industry does not suffer material injury within the meaning of Article 3(5) of the basic Regulation, although it is not as healthy as in the last expiry review and there appears to be a downwards trend, related notably to the decrease in prices.
Prosta zmogljivost je torej bolj omejena kot pri zadnjem pregledu zaradi izteka ukrepa.
LIKELIHOOD OF RECURRENCE OF INJURY
Če pa bi se prosta zmogljivost v celoti usmerila na trg Unije, bi se lahko še vedno izvažal velik obseg, ki bi posebej močno vplival na nekatere sosednje regije.
The Commission assessed what would be likely to happen to the Union industry's situation if measures were terminated.
Čeprav v poročilu ni neposredno izraženo povečanje v zvezi z amonijevim nitratom, sta navedena pomen gnojil za rusko gospodarstvo in pripravljenost vlade, da zagotovi visoko zmogljivost v državi.
For this purpose, as set out in section 1.4.3.2, the Commission gathered data from the cooperating Russian exporting producers, such as on sales prices, production and spare capacity.
Po razkritju je rusko združenje RFPA trdilo, da ta prosta zmogljivost glede na prihodnji razvoj ruske domače potrošnje ne bo usmerjena v Unijo (glej oddelek 3.3).
Available spare capacity in Russia
Komisija je to trditev zavrnila.
In the last expiry review, a spare capacity of around 1 million tonnes was found (for a total production capacity of 9,6 million tonnes).
Čeprav je pričakovati, da se bo ruska potrošnja nekoliko povečala, ni mogoče skleniti, da bi se obstoječa prosta zmogljivost v celoti uporabila za zadovoljitev domačega povpraševanja.
Based on Fertecon data, production of AN in Russia has increased by 7 % since 2013 and is set to increase further by 2030.
Vsekakor pa trditev združenja RFPA ne upošteva nobene prihodnje dodatne ruske zmogljivosti v zvezi z amonijevim nitratom.
Russian domestic consumption has increased significantly as indicated in section 2.4.
Leta 2002 je industrija Unije vključevala predvsem zahodnoevropske družbe, ki so se srečevale z uvozom iz Rusije in vzhodnoevropskih držav, slednje pa so se od takrat pridružile Uniji.
Capacity utilisation exceeds 95 % and is expected to stay at this level in the next years.
V skladu s tem se je tržni delež industrije Unije s širitvijo Unije znatno povečal.
Fertilizers Europe claimed that Russian spare capacity was 1,3 million tonnes, or 18 % of the Union market.
Zato razmere iz leta 2002 niso neposredno primerljive z razmerami v okviru tega pregleda.
Following disclosure, it reiterated its claim and also referred to the Commission's findings in the last expiry review.
Ravnanje ruskih izvoznikov na trgih tretjih držav
It submitted that Fertilizers Europe's estimate was incorrect as it took into account only solid AN, and that Fertecon data should be used.
Brazilija je nedvomno največji izvozni trg sodelujočih ruskih družb.
As the Commission found in the last expiry review, Russian exporting producers tend to report installed capacity based on the nameplate theoretical capacity.
Industrija Unije je navedla, da bodo ruski izvozniki obseg izvoza preusmerili v Unijo.
In this investigation as well, the Commission disregarded the nameplate capacity quoted by Russian cooperating companies as they in fact produced more than their theoretical capacity.
Prodajne cene sodelujočih družb kažejo mešano sliko: cene v nekaterih tretjih državah so manj privlačne od cen Unije, čeprav za nekatere države velja nasprotno.
The estimated capacity utilization for the two cooperating exporting producers was above 94 %.
Komisija je zato sklenila, da bi se lahko obseg ruskega izvoza v primeru izteka ukrepov preusmeril z manj privlačnih tretjih trgov na trg Unije.
To establish capacity and spare capacity in Russia, the Commission used verified data from the cooperating companies and data for all other Russian exporters, adjusted when necessary.
Tveganje preusmeritve je še večje zaradi pričakovanega prihodnjega razvoja zmogljivosti dušikovih gnojil v ZDA, kot je navedeno v oddelku 3.3.
This figure amounts to 7,7 % of Union consumption of around 7,9 million tonnes.
Komisija je izpostavila, da ta pojav zadeva le nekatere proizvajalce in da bi se v primeru ukinitve ukrepov ravnanje ruskih proizvajalcev izvoznikov, ki prodajajo amonijev nitrat, verjetno spremenilo.
Spare capacity is hence more limited than in the last expiry review.
Poleg tega je rusko združenje RFPA navedlo, da naložbe različnih ruskih proizvajalcev izvoznikov v Braziliji kažejo na privlačnost Brazilije v nasprotju z Unijo.
But if fully directed to the Union market, significant volumes could still be exported and have a particularly strong effect on some neighbouring regions.
Komisija je izpostavila, da te naložbe potrjujejo pripravljenost ruskih proizvajalcev na izvoz v tretje države.
