Several importers claimed that they might exit the market altogether if the measures are imposed.
Komisija se je zato odločila, da bo ocenila trditev, da 6,1-odstotna dobičkonosnost, dosežena leta 2014 za tretji razred, kot je navedeno v dokumentu o končnem razkritju, ne bi ustrezno zagotovila preživetja dejavnosti protektiranja v Uniji.
The Commission recalled that the purpose of imposing anti-dumping measures is to restore a level playing field so that Union producers and third country producers compete on a level playing field.
V zvezi s tem se je odločila, da bo na podlagi podatkov, prejetih v preverjenih odgovorih na vprašalnik, proučila stopnje dobičkonosnosti, ki so jih družbe, dejavne v tem razredu, dosegle leta 2014.
Accordingly, the duties are only set at a level that would still enable the Chinese imports to continue competing with the Union producers, but at fair prices.
Za vzorčene velike družbe, ki izvajajo dejavnost protektiranja v tretjem razredu, je dobičkonosnost leta 2014 znašala – 6,04 %.
In addition, given that the high difference between dumped Chinese prices and the import prices from all other countries will be reduced through the measures, the importers will have increased business opportunities to sell bus and lorry tyres from other countries.
Za vzorčena MSP je znašala 2,71 %.
Following final disclosure, the Retread Manufacturing Association claimed that the supply is secured.
Iz teh podatkov je razvidno, da je kitajski uvoz že leta 2014 vplival na industrijo protektiranja, ki predstavlja pomemben del industrije Unije kot celote.
According to the Association there is no product shortage as trade data show that manufacturers are switching their sourcing from the People's Republic of China to other countries, such as South Korea.
Komisija si je zato prizadevala ugotoviti, kakšen ciljni dobiček bi morali proizvajalci Unije v tretjem razredu doseči v običajnih konkurenčnih pogojih, pri čemer je ustrezno pozornost namenila izvajalcem protektiranja.
The party claimed that since the announcement of provisional duties the local demand has increased between 5 and 10 %.
Pri tej oceni je uporabila tudi informacije, ki so bile na voljo v dokumentaciji.
The Commission concluded that measures would not be in the interest of importers who predominantly rely on the import of very cheap Chinese tyres.
V pritožbi je bil ciljni dobiček za proizvajalce zadevnega izdelka v tretjem razredu določen na 9,2 %, kar bi po mnenju pritožnikov zagotovilo ustrezno poslovanje vsem proizvajalcem, dejavnim v tretjem razredu (vključno z izvajalci protektiranja zadevnega izdelka).
However, importers with a broader portfolio are unlikely to be severely affected by the restoration of fair competition.
Ta podatek je bil tudi v skladu s pripombami, ki so jih izvajalci protektiranja zadevnega izdelka predložili v odziv na dokument o končnem razkritju in v katerih so trdili, da bi morala Komisija za proizvajalce v tretjem razredu upoštevati stopnje dobičkonosnosti v višini približno 9 %.
Interest of suppliers
Njihova trditev je bila osredotočena zlasti na podatke iz leta 2014, ki so že kazali to, da je bila povzročena škoda industriji protektiranja v Uniji.
In the absence of any comments on the matter, the Commission confirmed its finding in recital (242) of the provisional Regulation that measures are in the interest of treads suppliers.
Podobno je Komisija upoštevala podatke, ki so jih vzorčeni izvajalci protektiranja v Uniji predložili za leti 2006 in 2007, ki sta bili po njihovih navedbah zadnji leti, v katerih so bili vzpostavljeni običajni konkurenčni pogoji.
Other interests
V navedenih letih je bila dobičkonosnost izvajalcev protektiranja v Uniji 9,4-odstotna.
In the absence of comments to the contrary provided within the deadline set for submitting comments on the Final Disclosure Document, the Commission confirmed its findings in recitals (243) to (249) of the provisional Regulation that measures are in the interest of the Union's policy to reduce waste and to manage raw materials in a sustainable way.
Komisija je te podatke primerjala z združenimi podatki o dobičkonosnosti v tretjem razredu za vzorčene proizvajalce Unije v letu 2014.
Moreover, given that it is mostly SMEs which are active in the retreading business, the imposition of measures would also be in line with the important Commission objective to support SMEs.
Brez upoštevanja ponderja uspešnosti MSP v celotni industriji Unije je bila dobičkonosnost v tretjem razredu v navedenem letu 9,2-odstotna.
Conclusion on Union interest
Ta neponderirani podatek je bil ustreznejši od prejšnjega ponderiranega podatka, ki je znašal 6,1 %.
Therefore, the Commission confirmed its conclusion in recitals (234) to (249) of the provisional Regulation.
Kitajski uvoz je leta 2014 že močno vplival na MSP v tretjem razredu, tako da ponderirani podatki za navedeno leto ne izražajo popolnoma običajnih konkurenčnih pogojev v industriji protektiranja.
There are no compelling reasons under Article 21 of the basic Regulation that it would not be in the interest of the Union to impose measures.
Zato je bilo po mnenju Komisije primerneje, da ciljni dobiček v letu 2014 izračuna tako, da se zmanjša škodljivi vpliv kitajskega uvoza, ki je bil navedeno leto ugotovljen tudi pri industriji protektiranja v Uniji.
CONSIDERATION OF RETROACTIVE IMPOSITION OF THE MEASURES
Ob upoštevanju navedenih informacij se je Komisija odločila, da bo ciljni dobiček za proizvajalce zadevnega izdelka v tretjem razredu določila na 9,2 %.
As mentioned in recital (4), imports of the product concerned were subject to registration from 3 February 2018 until the date of entry into force of the provisional measures on 8 May 2018 with a view of the possible retroactive collection of duties on the registered imports.
To pomeni najnižjo neškodljivo ceno, ki jo morajo doseči proizvajalci v tretjem razredu v Uniji v običajnih konkurenčnih pogojih, pri čemer so se ustrezno upoštevale potrebe industrije protektiranja.
During the definitive stage of the investigation, the data collected in the context of the registration was assessed.
Kot je navedeno v uvodni izjavi 16, je Komisija razkrila to dodatno ugotovitev in zainteresirane strani pozvala, naj predložijo pripombe.
The Commission analysed whether the criteria under Article 10(4) of the basic Regulation were met for the retroactive collection of definitive duties.
Družba Heuver je trdila, da Komisija ne more razlikovati med protektiranimi in novimi pnevmatikami, saj so se glede njihove zamenljivosti dosledno štele za isti izdelek.
The data available at the time of registration had shown that a substantial rise in imports had taken place on a CN code level.
Poleg tega je bila opravljena celotna analiza škode in vzročnosti brez kakršnega koli razlikovanja.
However, newer data demonstrates that no further substantial rise in imports took place as compared to the level of imports during the investigation period.
Zadevna stran je trdila, da Komisija ni zagotovila veljavne podlage za odstopanje od obravnavanega obdobja te preiskave in da je kitajski uvoz že leta 2014 vplival na industrijo Unije kot celoto.
Therefore, that condition under Article 10(4)(d) of the basic Regulation is not met.
Poleg tega je trdila, da dejstvo, da v času, ko uvoz iz LRK ni povzročil škode industriji Unije (v obdobju 2008–2014), niso dosegli te ravni ciljnega dobička, jasno kaže, da obstajajo drugi vzroki za škodo.
Therefore, the Commission concluded that the retroactive collection of the definitive duties was not justified in this case.
Družba Hämmerling je trdila tudi, da je bil tridnevni rok, določen za predložitev pripomb glede bistvenih sprememb dokumenta in končnih sklepov Komisije, prekratek in je pomenil kršitev njenih pravic do obrambe.
DEFINITIVE ANTI-DUMPING MEASURES
Skupina Xingyuan Group je trdila, da 9,2-odstotni ciljni dobiček ni primeren, ker ni preverjen.
Injury elimination level (Injury margin)
Trdila je, da ni primerno uporabiti neponderirano dobičkonosnost.
Following provisional disclosure, several interested parties asserted that there was broad agreement on the segmentation of the Union market into three tiers, and that in the provisional Regulation there was extensive analyses and data provided per segment.
Skupina Aeolus Group je trdila, da Komisija ni analizirala vzročne zveze med kitajskim uvozom in uspešnostjo industrije protektiranja v Uniji.
However, the approach used at the provisional stage of one target profit for all tiers had the effect of overprotecting the Union producers from the dumped imports of tier 3 tyres, which could not reach the stipulated target profit for the industry as a whole.
Poleg tega je trdila, da mora biti stopnja dobička omejena na stopnjo dobička, ki bi jo industrija Unije lahko razumno dosegla pod običajnimi konkurenčnimi pogoji.
Therefore, the Commission should use the profitability of each tier to calculate the non-injurious price and the injury margin for a proper application of the lesser duty rule.
Trdila je, da Komisija pri vrednotenju ustreznega ciljnega dobička za tretji razred ne sme razlikovati med novimi in protektiranimi pnevmatikami.
The Commission accepted the claim.
Nazadnje je trdila tudi, da Komisija ni navedla razloga za določitev ciljnega dobička za tretji razred na 9,2 %.
It considered that is more appropriate to establish target profits per tier in this particular case because the form of the measures is a fixed duty per tyre, which in turn is based on an injury margin derived from a product control number per tier.
Zbornica CCCMC in združenje CRIA sta trdila, da določitev ciljnega dobička na 9,2 % za tretji razred ni izražala običajnih konkurenčnih pogojev ter da leti 2006 in 2007 nista ustrezni merili za opredelitev škode.
Therefore, it revised the target profit to 17,9 % for tier 1, 17,9 % for tier 2 and 6,1 % for tier 3.
Ker je Komisija posvečala preveč pozornosti izvajalcem protektiranja v tretjem razredu, je ogrozila tudi svojo analizo škode za industrijo Unije kot celoto.
Following final disclosure, the Giti Group claimed that 2014, which is used as a basis for the target profit, was an abnormal year because the profitability for tier 1 and tier 2 were the same whereas they differed in the next two years.
Družba Prometeon je trdila, da spremenjeni izračun stopnje škode potrjuje sklep, da je domnevna škoda majhna.
The Commission recalled that it is bound to establish a target profit by identifying a year which resembles most to normal conditions of competition undistorted by dumped imports.
Skupna izguba, ki se lahko pripiše tretjemu razredu, bi znašala približno 54 milijonov EUR, ki predstavljajo 91 % celotne škode, ki jo je utrpela industrija Unije, na prvi in drugi razred pa ni vplivala.
Against that yardstick, 2014 amounts to the year with lowest volumes and market share of dumped imports, as compared to 2015 or 2016 and the latter should therefore be excluded.
Ponovila je tudi svojo zahtevo, da bi bilo treba uporabiti drugo obliko ukrepa.
Likewise, the Commission could not resort to years prior to 2014 as no verified information existed for those years.
Komisija je te trditve zavrnila iz naslednjih razlogov.
Some interested parties (the complainant, Tyre Specialists of Finland, Italian Tyre Retreaders Association, Bipaver, VIPAL, Portuguese Association of Retreading Industries, Bundesverband Reifenhandel und Vulkaniseur-Handwerk) considered that the target profit of 6,1 % for tier 3 used in the final disclosure was too low to address the injury suffered by the retreaders and that a profit rate of around 10 % achieved before the surge of imports was warranted.
Prvič, ciljni dobiček za tretji razred na ravni 9,2 % temelji na dejanski dobičkonosnosti vzorčenih proizvajalcev Unije v tretjem razredu leta 2014 pred ponderiranjem družb glede na razred.
The Commission recalled that the tier 3 tyre market is identifiable by the particular presence of retreaded and new tyres, which actively compete against each other for market share.
V ta namen ni neprimerno uporabiti neponderirane podatke, da bi se zmanjšal učinek uspešnosti MSP, na katere je že vplivala znatna stopnja kitajskega uvoza.
As preliminarily established in recital (209) of the provisional Regulation, unsustainable levels of losses in the retreading industry put the survival of the entire retreading activity in the Union at risk.
Drugič, sklicevanje Komisije na leti 2006 in 2007 te ocene ne spremeni.
As further preliminarily established in recital (230) of the provisional Regulation, these losses also affect the profitability that the companies active in tiers 1 and 2 can achieve.
Namesto tega je potrdilo ugotovitve na podlagi neponderiranih podatkov za leto 2014 kot razumno merilo.
These findings are to be seen in light of the clear Union interest for the existence of a strong retreading industry, as established in recitals (243) to (249) of the provisional Regulation and (232) of the Final Disclosure Document.
Nobena od zainteresiranih strani ni trdila, da so bili konkurenčni pogoji v letih 2006–2007 izkrivljeni.
The Commission accordingly decided to assess the claim that the profitability of 6,1 % reached in 2014 for tier 3, as noted in the Final Disclosure Document, would not adequately ensure the survival of the retreading activity in the Union.
Vzorčeni izvajalci protektiranja so z računovodskimi izkazi utemeljili trditev, da je bila v letih 2006–2007 njihova običajna dobičkonosnost v povprečju med 9 in 10 %.
For sampled large companies active in the tier 3 retreading business, the profitability figure for 2014 was – 6,04 %.
Industrija Unije je za ta podatek (torej 9,2 %) že v začetni fazi menila, da je ustrezen ciljni dobiček – tj. precej preden je Komisija začela postopek ponderiranja.
For sampled SMEs, this figure was 2,71 %.
Komisija je zato te trditve zavrnila in potrdila svojo izbiro, s katero je ciljni dobiček določila na 9,2 % za pnevmatike tretjega razreda.
These figures show that the retreading industry, representing a significant part of the Union industry as a whole, was already affected by Chinese imports in 2014.
Nazadnje, na podlagi člena 20(5) osnovne uredbe bi bilo treba stranem dati na voljo 10 dni za predložitev pripomb glede končnega razkritja.
The Commission accordingly sought to determine what target profit Union producers in tier 3 should achieve under normal conditions of competition with due attention given to retreaders.
V tem primeru je Komisija v ta namen odobrila dva polna tedna.
For this assessment, it also turned to the information available on the file.
Kadar je potrebno dodatno končno razkritje, se lahko določi krajše obdobje.
In the complaint, the target profit for tier 3 producers of the product concerned was set at 9,2 %, which, according to the complainants, would ensure adequate operations for all producers active in tier 3 (including retreaders of the product concerned).
V nasprotju s tem, kar zatrjuje družba Hämmerling, dodatno končno razkritje ni bilo zahtevno ali bistveno.
This figure was also in line with comments made by retreaders of the product concerned, in reply to the Final Disclosure Document, which argued that the Commission should look at profitability levels of around 9 % for tier 3 producers.
Namesto tega se je nanašalo le na poseben vidik, namreč ciljni dobiček, pojasnjen v dvostranskem dokumentu.
Their argument principally centred around 2014 figures already showing an injured state of the retreading industry in the Union.
V tem primeru so odobreni trije dnevi za pripombe vsem stranem zadoščali za uveljavljanje njihovih pravic do obrambe.
Similarly, the Commission considered the submitted data from the sampled Union retreaders for the years 2006 and 2007, which, according to Union retreaders, represented the last years during which normal conditions of competition took place.
Dokončni protidampinški ukrepi
For those years, profitability of Union retreaders was 9,4 %.
Na uvoz zadevnega izdelka s poreklom iz LRK bi bilo treba uvesti dokončne protidampinške ukrepe v skladu s pravilom nižje dajatve iz člena 7(2) osnovne uredbe.
The Commission compared these figures with aggregated tier 3 profitability figures for the sampled Union producers in 2014.
Komisija je primerjala stopnje škode in stopnje dampinga.
Without reflecting the weight of the performance of SMEs in the entire Union industry, the profitability in tier 3 in that year stood at 9,2 %.
Višino dajatve bi bilo treba določiti na nižji od obeh stopenj dampinga in škode.
This unweighted figure was more appropriate than the previously weighted figure of 6,1 %.
Zato bi morale biti stopnje dokončne protidampinške dajatve, izražene kot cena CIF meja Unije brez plačane carine, take, kot je navedeno v nadaljevanju.
SMEs in tier 3 were already heavily affected in 2014 by Chinese imports, so that the weighted figures for that year do not fully reflect normal conditions of competition in the retreading industry.
Preglednica 11
As a result, the Commission considered it more appropriate to calculate the target profit in year 2014 in a manner which attenuates the injurious impact of the Chinese imports already observed in that year also for the Union retreading industry.
Stopnje dokončne protidampinške dajatve
In light of the above information, the Commission decided to set the target profit for tier 3 producers of the product concerned at 9,2 %.
Stopnja dampinga (v %)
This accounts for the minimum non-injurious price that Union tier 3 producers need to achieve under normal conditions of competition, with due respect given to the needs of the retreading industry.
Stopnja škode (v %)
As mentioned in recital (16), the Commission disclosed this additional finding and invited interested parties to comment.
Dokončna protidampinška dajatev (v %)
Heuver claimed that the Commission cannot distinguish between retreaded tyres and new tyres as it was consistently considered as the same products in view of their interchangeability.
Druge sodelujoče družbe
Moreover, the entire injury and causality analysis was made without making any distinction whatsoever.
Stopnje protidampinške dajatve za posamezne družbe, navedene v tej uredbi, so bile določene na podlagi ugotovitev te preiskave.
That party claimed that the Commission did not provide a valid basis for departing from the period considered of this investigation and that the Union industry as a whole was already affected by the Chinese imports in 2014.
Zato je v njih upoštevan položaj teh družb med to preiskavo.
Moreover, that party claimed that the fact they have not reached this target profit level at times when the imports from the PRC did not cause injury to the Union industry (2008-2014) clearly means that there are other causes of injury.
Te individualne stopnje protidampinških dajatev (v nasprotju z dajatvijo na ravni države, ki se uporablja za „vse druge družbe“) zato veljajo izključno za uvoz zadevnega izdelka s poreklom iz zadevne države, ki so ga proizvedli navedeni pravni subjekti.
Hämmerling also claimed that the deadline of three days provided to submit comments to substantial changes made to the document and final conclusions reached by the Commission was too short and amounted to a breach of its rights of defence.
Za uvoz zadevnega izdelka, ki ga proizvaja katera koli druga družba, ki ni posebej navedena v izvedbenem delu te uredbe, vključno s subjekti, povezanimi s tistimi, ki so izrecno navedeni, bi morala veljati stopnja dajatve, ki se uporablja za „vse druge družbe“.
The Xingyuan Group claimed that the target profit of 9,2 % was inappropriate because it was unverified.
Individualne stopnje protidampinške dajatve se zanje ne bi smele uporabljati.
The years 2006 and 2007 were too distant from the current situation and there was no evidence that the Union industry was suffering injury in 2014.
Družba lahko zahteva uporabo navedenih individualnih stopenj protidampinških dajatev, če naknadno spremeni ime svojega subjekta.
In addition, that party claimed that the aim of the target profit was not to ensure the survival of the industry, but to remove the effect of injurious dumping.
Zahtevek je treba nasloviti na Komisijo.
It claimed that using an unweighted profitability was inappropriate.
Vsebovati mora vse ustrezne informacije, s katerimi je mogoče dokazati, da sprememba ne vpliva na upravičenost družbe do stopnje dajatve, ki se zanjo uporablja.
The Aeolus Group claimed that the Commission did not conduct an analysis on the causal link between the Chinese imports and the performance of the Union retreading industry.
Če sprememba imena družbe ne vpliva na njeno pravico do uživanja koristi stopnje dajatve, ki se zanjo uporablja, se v Uradnem listu Evropske unije objavi obvestilo o spremembi imena.
Moreover, that party claimed that the profit margin must be limited to the profit margin that the Union industry could reasonably count on under normal market conditions of competition.
Da bi se zmanjšalo tveganje izogibanja ukrepom zaradi velikih razlik v stopnjah dajatev, so potrebni posebni ukrepi, da se zagotovi uporaba individualnih protidampinških dajatev.
It claimed that the Commission must not differentiate between new tyres and retreaded tyres when evaluating the appropriate target profit for tier 3.
Družbe, za katere veljajo individualne protidampinške dajatve, morajo carinskim organom držav članic predložiti veljaven trgovinski račun.
Finally, it claimed that the Commission had not justified why it had set the target profit for tier 3 at 9,2 %.
Ta račun mora biti v skladu z zahtevami iz člena 1(3) te uredbe.
The CCCMC and CRIA claimed that setting the target profit at 9,2 % for tier 3 did not reflect normal conditions of competition and the years 2006 and 2007 are no proper benchmarks for identifying injury.
Za uvoz, za katerega navedeni račun ni bil predložen, bi bilo treba uporabiti protidampinško dajatev, ki se uporablja za „vse druge družbe“.
As the Commission had overly paid attention to tier 3 retreaders it had also undermined its injury analysis for the Union industry as a whole.
Da se zagotovi ustrezno izvrševanje protidampinških dajatev, bi bilo treba protidampinško dajatev za vse druge družbe uporabljati ne le za nesodelujoče proizvajalce izvoznike v tej preiskavi, temveč tudi za proizvajalce, ki v obdobju preiskave niso izvažali v Unijo.
Prometeon claimed that the revised injury margin calculation reinforces the conclusion that the alleged injury is marginal.
Glede na nedavno sodno prakso Sodišča je primerno, da se določi stopnja zamudnih obresti, ki se plačajo v primeru povračila dokončnih dajatev, saj ustrezni veljavni carinski predpisi ne določajo take obrestne mere, uporaba nacionalnih predpisov pa bi privedla do neupravičenega izkrivljanja konkurence med gospodarskimi subjekti glede na to, katera država članica se izbere za carinjenje.
The total loss attributable to tier 3 would be around 54 million EURO representing 91 % of the total injury suffered by the Union industry, whereas tier 1 and tier 2 tyres are not affected.
Kot je navedeno v uvodni izjavi 263 začasne uredbe, obstaja tveganje, da bi subjekti v izogib ukrepom uvažali kolesa, opremljena s kitajskimi pnevmatikami.
It also reiterated its claim that another form of the measure should be used.
Zato je Komisija menila, da je primerno spremljati uvoz koles priklopnih in polpriklopnih vozil, opremljenih z novimi ali protektiranimi pnevmatikami iz gume, ki se uporabljajo za avtobuse ali tovornjake, z indeksom obremenitve nad 121, da bi se tveganje čim bolj zmanjšalo.
The Commission rejected those claims for the following reasons.
Družba Hämmerling je trdila, da osnovna uredba Komisiji ne daje pravne podlage za razvrstitev blaga za carinske namene in da je bil zato člen 1(5) začasne uredbe nezakonit.
First, the target profit for tier 3 at a level of 9,2 % is based on the actual profitability of the sampled Union producers in tier 3 in 2014 before the weighting of companies per tier.
Kot je navedeno v uvodni izjavi 263 začasne uredbe, se v skladu s pojasnjevalnimi opombami harmoniziranega sistema k tarifni številki 8708 in 8716 kolesa priklopnih ali polpriklopnih vozil, opremljena s pnevmatikami, uvrščajo v tar. št. 8708 in 8716.
